TIC-80 has terrible performance on firefox browser. But when you open the firefox debug logger to try pinpoint the issue it runs flawlessly.

100% SO fault. I’d rather change professions than try to ask anything there.

I’m just hoping for some alternative, because there need to exist a place to exchange that kind of knowledge.

I think there’s a plug in. But it does connect to an api. So you have to have an endpoint available for that. Being an online service (mostly paid) or your own service running in your machine.

I think the issue is that many sites are too aggressive with it. Anubis can be configured to only ask for challenges if the site is under unusual load, for instance when a botnet it’s actually ddosing the site. That’s when it shines.

Making it constantly ask for challenges when the service is not under attack is just a massive waste of energy. And many sites just enable it constantly because they can defer bot pings from their logs that way. That’s for instance what op is doing. It’s just a big misunderstanding of the tool.

I don’t know if “anything”. But surely people overestimate its capabilities.

It’s only a PoW challenge. Any bot can execute a PoW challenge. For a smal to medium number of bots the energy difference it’s negligible.

Anubis it’s useful when millions of bots would want to attack a site. Then the energy difference of the PoW (specially because Anubis increase the challenge if there’s a big number of petitions) can be enough to make the attacker desist, or maybe it’s not enough, but at least then it’s doing something.

I see more useful against DDOS than AI scrapping. And only if the service being DDOS is more heavy than Anubis itself, if not you can get DDOS via anubis petitions. For AI scrapping I don’t see the point, you don’t need millions of bots to scrape a site unless you are talking about a massively big site.

You are right. For most self-hosting usecases anubis is not only irrelevant, but it actually works against you. False sense of security and making your devices do extra work for nothing.

Anubis is though for public facing services that may get ddos or AI scrapped by some not targeted bot (for a target bot it’s trivial to get over Anubis in order to scrap).

And it’s never a substitute of crowdsec or fail2ban. Getting an Anubis token it’s just a matter of executing the PoW challenge. You still need a way to detect and ban malicious attacks.

I don’t think you have a usecase for Anubis.

Anubis is mainly aimed against bad AI scrappers and some ddos mitigation if you have a heavy service.

You are getting hit exactly the same, anubis doesn’t put up a block list or anything. It just put itself in front of the service. The load on your server and the risk you take it’s very similar anubis or not anubis here. Most bots are not AI scrappers they are just proving. So the hit on your server is the same.

What you want is to properly set up fail2ban or, even better, crowdsec. That would actually block and ban bots that try to prove your server.

If you are just self-hosting with Anubis the only thing you are doing is deriving the log noise towards Anubis logs and making your devices do a PoW every once in a while when you want to use your services.

Being honest I don’t know what you are self hosting. But at least it’s something that’s going to get ddos or AI scrapped, there’s not much point with Anubis.

Also Anubis is not a substitute for fail2ban or crowdsec. You need something to detect and ban brute force attacks. If not the attacker would only need to execute the anubis challenge get the token for the week and then they are free to attack your services as they like.

My “important” emails work on a white list basis. So every sender not approved by me goes to spam. When I’m waiting for an email I’ll check the spam folder for it and white list the sender.

I wouldn’t trust a sane person to do a ultra private phone OS.

You need the paranoia, you need to see the shadows move to do it right.

I don’t know if never.

But I don’t want a smartwatch.

I’ve never carried a watch in general and I don’t see the appeal of it when I carry a smartphone all day anyway.

It’s not gay if I’m wearing programming socks.

That’s actually very clever. I don’t really have reasons to go to his office (I haven’t go once in five years). But some other people do, maybe I can convince them to do it.

Gathering more coworkers into it seems the more reasonable approach. I don’t know what could actually be done. As NoiseGuy department is actually HR and they are the ones who sent him here because they didn’t want to have him around. But having more people complaining together will obviously increase the chances of something being done.

Three years more or less. I started working here during the pandemic. And for the first couple of years I didn’t noticed that much. We used to have a deaf coworker that also did a lot of noise, but because that’s how he could communicate, so it really didn’t bother anyone as he wasn’t doing it on purpose to bother. But since that noises disappear from the office I think I have noticed this more, or maybe he is doing it more, I couldn’t tell.

AFAIK simplex is the closest we have to perfect privacy.

I suppose you can enforce additional politics into your store. Like forcing all apps being open source (like f-droid).

But everything will keep to be apple/google approved, at least until linux phone becomes more mainstream.

Until then I’m moving away from native app development, and focusing more on webapps and progressive apps.

I contacted my representatives in Spain and they gave two fucks about it, they still positioned as “in favour”.

I haven’t post in Reddit since they announced the app ban. I found reddit and for me the transition was instant.

I still read reddit for information. But for posting and social media I solely use lemmy.

For me then hardest part was loosing the niche communities. But the UX at reddit is so bad that I prefer loosing those places that having to go through reddit UX to post in them.

We got rid of PP (right wing) because corruption and now there’s a ton of corruption cases from PSOE (left wing).

People is tired. Most street level conversations about politics lean towards a completely lack of faith in the current system overall.

Basically the only ones hyped up about their political option are the alt-right (because you know, nazis don’t care). The rest of the spectrum just criticize other options but they don’t really defend their own option as they know there’s nothing to defend.
