@djsumdog@djsumdog.com That looks like the setup of a savage who polished his rock. There's even icons on your desktop, which shouldn't be visible because your media player should be visible! Kids these days don't know how to create a good home theater, I tell you.

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com MPV is a movie player, I mean a media player as in a proper interface to play media, which generally keeps track of what you watched already. Don't tell me you hook up a laptop to your TV, open a terminal by hand and then manually type out what you want to watch 😨

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com Do you people not have a media player?

@stelo@fsebugoutzone.org @djsumdog@djsumdog.com @Pi_rat@freesoftwareextremist.com @sandycorzeta@misskey.id I did when I was a kid, but nowadays I don't feel like replicating my anime consumption habits on a third party website.

@sandycorzeta@misskey.id I expected to get more, how is this list even compiled?! Girls und Panzer was a great anime and should be included in every list!

@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co Just use a real OS if you desire filesystem performance

@redstarfish@freesoftwareextremist.com @sicp@freesoftwareextremist.com @Pi_rat@freesoftwareextremist.com @jrballesteros05@social.linux.pizza @xmpp@fosstodon.org I use Gajim and its not unusable, but I wouldn't consider it good. Especially since their recent change of breaking tab completion and requiring me to use @ to get nickname completion, but then also always adding a : regardless of where in a sentence its used. Its a definite downgrade from the nickname tab-completion which worked fine for years.

Scrolling through big chats is also very glitchy and keeps resetting position, while eventually not showing logs of more than 24 hours ago. Finding messages which highlight me also doesn't seem to have a dedicated button or hotkey, so manual scrolling and hoping I notice the highlighted line is what I get, and combined with the glitchiness it is not a great experience.

Compared to what I used for IRC (WeeChat), it is nowhere near as polished. and it shows every day.

@jrballesteros05@social.linux.pizza @paul@notnull.space @xmpp@fosstodon.org XMPP is nice, and setting up a server is quite simple while also very light on resources (especially compared to a Matrix homeserver). The only downside I've had with XMPP is that there's no good desktop (gui or cli) clients.

@dwarf@borg.social A split unit is the thing where there's an outside unit and the thing on the wall insideI thought that's just the normal "inbouw airco". Now I know a new word!a portable one is less efficient and less powerfulWell yeah, but it might be better than nothing, right?

@gosha@merveilles.town @cnx@awkward.place Your website doesn't function without Javascript, and quite a big blob of it, too. Any good website doesn't depend on Javascript.

@GeePawHill@mastodon.social Start here, now, on mastodon.I'm not actually on Mastodon, though. A lot of people here aren't.

@GeePawHill@mastodon.social Your post tells me to use words, so I do! I hope one day you'll learn that the Fediverse is in fact much larger than Mastodon.

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com Gina has responded to me before, so I think Fosstodon at least federates with me. Not sure about the other guy.

@Gina@fosstodon.org @randahl@mastodon.social The Dutch government has been doing half-assed promises of doing more with open source for many many years, sadly.

@irelephant@calckey.world Oh no 😨

@jon@social.vivaldi.net @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net Isn't Vivaldi just #Chromium under the hood anyway?

@jon@social.vivaldi.net @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net The only team that has done that successfully the last 30 years or soWhat about #Firefox?It is not trivialI'm not saying it is, however you're claiming that by using Vivaldi people are avoiding big tech, when in reality, the core of Vivaldi is still heavily dependent on Google's goodwill.

@phnt@fluffytail.org @waifu@mai.waifuism.life Its cute that you only get 20rq/s and think that's the scale of "the real world".

As a sidenote, I'm already blocking entire ASs.

@phnt@fluffytail.org @waifu@mai.waifuism.life There is no reason to prove a browser is "real" in the normal world.Okay, keep believing that.you are trying to combat a bot attackCorrect. Sounds like there are reasons after all. Only took a whole sentence to figure that one out.your mitigation simply has no effectIt appears to have an effect, and not just for my personal cgit. It appears a lot of people are using it because they are seeing a (positive) effect in combatting LLM scrapers with it.it can be easily bypassedIt can, and that's ok. Because if you bypass it, you become a unique UA that I can just block with any regular UA block in HAProxy. Even if you automate "random" UAs, I can put in a pretty excessive UA blacklist with patterns if I so desire. The entire point is that a connection using a regular browser UA has to prove they are in fact a regular, legitimate browser, because blocking those isn't feasible, because you'd block nearly all legitimate traffic otherwise.

Its not a hard concept I think. I don't know why I have to reiterate the same thing three times for you, but I truly hope this time it'll stick. If not, for the love of Stallman please just cancel your Internet subscription.

@phnt@fluffytail.org @waifu@mai.waifuism.life You're having a really hard time reading my posts I guess. I'm sorry for you.
