Boorus ought to be halfway there. They’re content-centric and high-bandwidth, they tend to have a theme, and they live or die by worthwhile tagging. But they’re not a feed, the way most federated platforms have been. They are not social media in any sense. They’re image hosts, minus any the incentive to create attention-sucking antipatterns.
Maybe with a more unified user experience - and ideally some P2P elements to make hosting cheaper and sturdier - we could fucking finally have a place that just hosts drawings. We’re a quarter of the way into the twenty-first century and it is absurd that every gallery site has some arbitrary limits on what content is too weird.
Tumblr used to be the exception, until Apple destroyed them. Bastards.
I assume because Bitcoin has a public ledger and Monero doesn’t. Its more than that, but that’s the gist. Monero literally exists to offer additional privacy over Bitcoin.
No idea about those VPNs in particular, but I assume its a similar privacy issue, such as keeping logs…
Bitcoin is a Snitchcoin. Everything is does everywhere it goes and everyone trading in its entire history is tracked and publicated %100 all the way down to the IP address.
Closest thing you can get away with that is to swap Monero for the Bitcoin on Bisq.
Monero is anonymous. %100. Regular upgrade to the shuffling of the anonymity is by design and happens between twice a year and every other year.
Mullvad accept Monero directly. No third party snitch tracker doing the acceptance for them. They give the same discount for the payment method.
I’m familiar with Bitcoin and Monero, it just wasn’t clear to me how they related to those VPNs.
I’m all for privacy but if you feel the need to pay for a VPN with Monero, and get seemingly offended by ones that don’t accept it, then I really have to wonder what you need it for.
Just an FYI, if I’m suspicious and I’ve only interacted with you once, I’m sure anyone who actually cares is also already suspicious of you. If you’re so big on Monero, then you should also know about OpSec.
Nord is a snitch VPN. Nothing you do in it is private.
I’m paranoid by choice. I’m choice of such because I’d rather have the skill before the need is the status and late to the party with any skill at all.
No. All my old shit is gone. I was in a coma for 3mo and 3 more in rehab. Came back to all my comps fried or stolen. I know enough never to fuck with them. Don’t take my word for it. Do your own gorramn research.
Then a year or two later you quit/get fired/move to a new team and that code is underpinning a business critical task. Everyone responsible for the code is scared to do any major refactoring because of how important it is but it seems to be working ok. Hopefully they’ll have time for a big refactor next quarter when they can afford to take some time and manage the associated risk.
The newly responsible team decides to rewrite it because “it’ll be easier than adding the new feature”, hopping on for another ride on the rollercoaster of sadness.
One way or another, the interest on the technical debt always comes due. When you hear phrases like “we can’t do that without a major refactor” with increasing frequency, you’ll know that day is not far off.
…And I just realized that it might be time for me to start looking for a new job cause the credit line on my current project is about maxed out.
marketing can either let me do it right or keep bugging me with more changes and forcing it to be done in two weeks without hiring anyone else for my team
Doesn’t it bug you that the LMDE logo in neofetch has the top line messed up? I have all my local systems patches and there is a PR up on their repo for it.
I’ve given up at this point because in the tech industry, there are zero wins. Even if you knock something out in 2 weeks, you’re “too slow” and need to “iterate faster”.
Okay fine.
iterates faster
“Why is this missing X, Y, and Z? Why is this button blue?”
That’s pure nonsense. Types don’t tell you that your code is correct, they just tell you that your types align. Here’s a perfect example of where the mentality that if it compiles, ship it leads you in practice.
Haskell bro wrote a benchmark comparing Haskell with C implementation of websockets. The initial results looked extremely favorable for Haskell. However, it turned out that the Haskell implementation failed to deliver messages reliably, dropping 98% of the messages it received.
Furthermore, static typing is that it’s inherently more limiting in terms of expressiveness because you’re limited to a set of statements that can be verified by the type checker effectively. This is a subset of all valid statements that you’re allowed to make in a dynamic language.
So, a static language will often force you to write code for the benefit of the type checker as opposed to the human reader because you have to write code in a way that the type checker can understand. This can lead to code that’s more difficult to reason about, and you end up with logic errors that are much harder to debug than simple type mismatches. People can also get a false sense of confidence from their type system as seen here where the author assumed the code was correct because it compiled, but in fact it wasn’t doing anything useful.
At the same time, there is no automated way to check the type definitions themselves and as you encode more constraints via types you end up with a meta program describing your program, and there is nothing to help you know whether that program itself is correct. Consider a fully typed insertion sort in Idris. It’s nearly 300 lines long! I could understand a 10 line Python version in its entirety and be able to guarantee that it works as intended much easier than the Idris one.
Paid torrent trackers don’t really exist as far as I know, that’s only really a thing on Usenet. The most common way to get into invite-only private trackers is through recruitment threads on other trackers, so if you aren’t already a member of at least 1 private tracker it’s hard to get into the scene to be honest. There are a few private trackers with open signups, or an ability to apply for an account and get manually approved, but those are pretty rare. The only one I’m currently aware of having open signups is pornolab, and as the name suggests that is a tracker dedicated to porn only. Another one that is very easy to get into is IPTorrents. It’s invite-only, but they are giving so many invites to members that there are lots of people that will give you an invite if you just ask nicely
I have a script that I found somewhere and have made personal tweaks to: pastebin.com/RJf9kajkPut it in a file called sub-clean.sh and check the instructions in the script on how to add it to bazarr
I have not noticed any issues with it, but there can of course be false positives (like someone saying the word “Facebook” in a series/movie), so your miles may wary. (this is why i leave the .trash.tmp file personally, so that i can restore the removed lines if needed)
and as always, this script is provided as is, but it might help someone out there
