@p @amerika @FranciscoScaramanga @GummyNerds @PNS @eriner @sun I meant it as that it didn't cause DoS only to instances that reject the deletes. It brings down even instances that honor the request. Especially those that run on cheap VPS VMs like Frantech or OVH. -

>it causes a DoS for servers that don’t honor it too, because it puts it into the retry back off queue
Not really, when a user from a remote Mastodon instance deletes their account, or in the worse case the instance admin touches the "nuke instance button". Mastodon just floods the whole network with Delete activities.
When a large instance, whose name I now forgot, got shutdown, I had around ~30 posts from them, and the instance sent 20+ r/s for 3 days with Delete activities for posts I didn't have made by users that didn't exist to my instance. Which caused the user to be automatically created and then immediately deactivated. The result was that my instance became barely usable until I just enabled a policy that rejects every incoming Delete request. -

@p @amerika @FranciscoScaramanga @GummyNerds @PNS @eriner @sun You can't do anything about it on the Mastodon side, I think, without extensively modifying how the queues work.
On the Pleroma side, I talked with feld about some kind of queuing for those delete jobs and just sending "success" back without immediately deleting the object. The idea was that it would periodically execute those jobs with a much lower priority until the queue is flushed completely and not hammer the DB like it does right now. But that idea sort of faded away after some time as he worked on more important things. Can't blame him.
Of course Akkoma, in typical Akkoma fashion, can't even cope with the load, as the MRF pipeline was modified to exclude Delete activities. -

>Tor is compromised
>Why not route traffic through 3 WireGuard hops from trusted VPN providers
Seriously?
>How does Tor defend against governments hosting a majority of nodes
By removing them from the public registry. They've been doing it for years.
How can people still take him seriously. He routinely has one of the worst takes on software and the only thing he has going for him is autistically secure code, which granted, is a really good thing.
But also his biggest disadvantage. Can a schizo autistic programmer be trusted with developing an OS for phones, when he has enough knowledge to hide malicious code in it and execute it at will? Especially when he picks fights with literally everyone online?

@feld @khm @mint Tbh that game probably learned kids more WW1 historical inaccuracies than any game or other media possibly ever. -

@cassidyclown Running replies made by auto-reply bots through an AI to reply to someone that doesn't even exist probably turned out to be expensive. -

Didn't finish it in time, because there are apparently two activities coming in, probably due to the relay (one as the user and one with the ap_id as the actor, or something like that). The typical with %User{} actor = User.get_cached_by_ap_id(actor) do... isn't effective as the other activity doesn't seem to have the ap_id in the actor and just let's it through.
And when I thought that might be the issue, I broke it with the error level in logs, which apparently stops processing the activity immediately.
Anyway, suya..

Nostr doesn't have a spam issue, the cuck said.
The lack of moderation tools and ease of account creation on Nostr isn't a problem, said the cuck. -

@eric This is making me annoyed to the point that I might write an MRF to drop these replies to bots and spam mention glussy with them instead. The only thing stopping me is that I'm away from my computer until tomorrow. -

A taste of future interactions on Nostr and Meta platforms.

Thank you :glussy: for converting to a DoA social media protocol and writing bridges to AP. -

One Nostr account (probably bot) spamming the ruiner bot and another bot seemingly arguing in some political thread half of which I can't see. A great start for today. -

@waifu Happy to help!
Also worth noting that OTG Windows install on USB devices aren't officially supported, so your mileage will probably vary at some point. -

@waifu Your options are either replacing the current drive/dualbooting, or an external SSD. 2.5" HDDs have a boot time of around ~10 minutes from my experience and take literal hours to update. -

@waifu You aren't using a USB2 stick, are you? Windows 10 and 11 suck on spinning rust, and the random IO of USB sticks is much worse. -

@mischievoustomato It doesn't make sense. Gimp is cross-platform and libadwaita is the complete opposite of that. -
