  • Is time a fundamental part of reality? A quiet revolution in physics suggests not

  • Your first post was fine. You can leave it to the moderators to delete anything that doesn't belong.

  • The upgrade argument for desktops doesn't stand up anymore

    Jump

  • Laptop CPUs are crippled garbage compared to desktop CPUs of the same generation. So there's that.

  • No wonder Reddit has turned to shit

  • I haven't tried to make something like that. I think it'd be hard to do that without also exhausting our resources too.

  • There are a lot of strategies. afaik a tar pit tries to waste the attacker's resources by delaying our responses to their traffic? A honey pot tries to funnel bot traffic towards a place which only bots would go to. Once they go there you know they're a bot and they can be banned.

  • Reminds me of usenet. Still there but overrun with spam and crazy talk!

  • theoretical considerations on identity management

    Jump

  • That is a lot like AT Protocol.

    There's pros and cons to every architecture. Which pros seem important and which cons you can put up with depend on your values and priorities.

  • A never-ending maze would mean the scrapers just hammer our servers forever. Better to lead them into a honeypot and automatically ban their IP. Like PieFed does.

  • No wonder Reddit has turned to shit

    Jump

  • Yes PieFed has a setting for that. It makes scrapers give up pretty fast but ruins the experience for people without an account so I only use it on really bad days.

  • Is there a word or phrase in your language to describe the situation when you wanted to fart but shit yourself?

    Jump

  • Is it touching cloth more like when you really really need to go and have been holding it for a long time?

  • Yep, for sure

  • PieFed 1.6 is released - pronouns, private communities, quote posts and much more

    Jump

  • Yes. The intended use-case is something like a community group that runs their own instance, or an admin team coordinating among themselves. Those people are going to be on the same instance.

  • I couldn't think of a way to federate privately, when we don't know which software is at the other end. In the current political environment there are going to be groups of people who simply can't take the risk.

    For example with mastodon's followers-only notes - that only gives some privacy because there is massive social pressure on any fedi implementation that doesn't follow the gentleman's agreement we have to hide those notes. That fails when implementations have bugs, are under the control of ICE, or whatever.

    It's tricky! Happy to bounce ideas around on it sometime. Maybe encryption...

  • I still need to finish the Dillo theme, which will make PieFed compatible with roughly Firefox 3+. That'll compliment the http mode nicely. This is super niche so just something I potter away on occasionally.

    Jump

  • Sorry the correct link is http://retro.piefed.com/. I'll update the post. Beware your browser will try to switch to https instead because they prefer it so you probably won't get the full rawdogging PieFed experience unless you change your browser setting to stop that.

    My fingers are used to .social! I also own the .com to stop someone else nabbing it but couldn't use retro.piefed.social because of SSL on piefed.social...
