The result they get is meaningless.

nostr:npub1srhg4hk63ew68kepu0znazgf9tdl089dkur5artp440htxqrc8zsqz8g90 output is a lot easier than input tbh. A long time ago I was curious about how bare metal stuff worked on x86 and hacked together a thing that was able to print to the screen well enough using the legacy text memory area, but never could get input interrupts to work. I couldn't figure out what was going wrong because the whole VM always crashed when I tried to enable the interrupts and eventually I just have up. Interrupts are so horrible to configure on x86 its ridiculous.

Now I'm figuring out how to transfer control from the MBR to a partition boot sector. On the arch linux iso, 'LBA start' is 0x40, but stuff at that offset (0x20000) doesn't look like valid machine code to me

btw, mastodon could display the entire bible without even slowing down, except for load times

>You could probably find a similar trick for Mastodon or Misskey

there was a trick for mastodon, you could post a giant text (the entire bible) and the script hiding the text broke, so the text was displayed in full. Gargron didn't bitch about bad actors and quietly fixed the issue.

nostr:npub109x0x9dlft64y4h9vz9mxu92qpqn752sd8p4xe2zkcanlzmk2fcq3pwvvl as for Misskey, there was an inverse situation. The messaging order was reversed, and replies from pleroma-be to misskey posts only federated to misskey instances. Lain fixed it, without demanding that syuilo must adhere to the existing convention.
