why does every cyclist look like a massive tool

kill yourself

i think people don't realize that mcdonalds is a logistics company first and foremost, and a fast food chain second.
some dumbass on reddit called this "country living"

I suggest blocking Threads.com from federating. Not because of holier-than-thou bullshit pretending that defederation is "praxis" or that thinking hundreds of people ganging up against a service with hundreds of millions of users will have any effect whatsoever.
No, Zuckerberg's got a real CSAM problem over there. It's even bleeding onto my Pomf service. I checked five web requests with referrers from Threads and guess what I found on all five (Image of logs is attached and those files are now removed). Coupled with his latest push to fire content reviewers and invest less in prevention mechanisms, I'd even say that Meta might be partially complicit. This lack of moderation of illegal material (and subsequent lack of notification to either myself or at least a centralized body like the NCMEC to alert me of the content on my side) exposes instances, should it make it over to Fedi, to potentially serving that content themselves or at a minimum accidentally storing it on disk.
I decided to do something a little aggressive and remove every single file from Pomf that was requested by Threads in the last 24 hours. I counted 139,090 requests (doesn't mean clicks, can include multiple 206 range requests per user) to 769 files. They're all gone now. If any legitimate files got caught up in it, well, too bad. Pick a better site to hotlink from. I also added a referrer block in Nginx to blackhole all traffic from Threads from this point forward.
Here's the command I use to count common referrers up: cat /var/log/nginx/access.log | awk '{print $11}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -n 20
Here's the command I used for identifying files for removal: cat /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep "l\.threads\.com" | awk '{print $7}' | awk -F '?' '{print $1}' | sort | uniq | sort -nr
Here's how you block inbound requests from multiple sites with referrers you don't like in Nginx, just add pipes for more matches and be sure to escape special characters. No, "referer" is not a typo, that's a weird RFC 1945 thing.
if ($http_referer ~* (badsite1|l\.threads\.com|badsite3) ) {
return 444;
}
Nuke it from orbit.

sending this in ASAP

apparently asking microsoft copilot to make network diagrams doesn't go well. It spits out these horrors instead

"two wrongs don't make a right" yeah well if my wrong is more wrong than their wrong they probably won't do wrong again seeing as they've been outwronged
I will kill the next person who sends me a server filled with packing peanuts.

The next generation of Lain.la hardware begins installation, today.
A special "fuck you" to that person who said I can't just keep adding storage. You bet your ass I can.

People who don't keep paper towels or even just basic rags in their car are unsanitary creatures who cannot plan even one step ahead.
What happens if you spill something? Do you just fester in your diet Pepsi soaked pants all the way home? Do you just go 'Teehee I'm so silly" as the corn syrup solidifies around your genitals?

that is not really a great name for batteries.

Another 60 or so free VMs could go on this bad boy.
