did this place get reset??
on an absolutely insane networking streak right now somehow???
something about the lightning and thunderstorm last night fixed me
portapotty filled to the brim at parc lafontaine
also, the hijacker was very silly and registered very identifiable emails on Google Search Console, a personal one containing what i assume is a full name or some shortening of it, and an institutional address containing a full student id. hopefully that gives me enough to have GitHub bar them from hijacking more domains
it's kind of fucked up that GitHub requires no verification whatsoever on the DNS side to serve content at a domain name that has the appropriate a records? like the "security" they have is hoping you register something on GitHub pages on your own domain before someone else does?
psa (or maybe just stupidity showcase): don't be lazy and leave the static ips from github pages on the a records of your deadname domain name if you end up wiping your website while still occupying the domain name, spammers will find a way to fuck your shit up
Ha! The Discord GDPR/Data Export thing reveals that it's running models to figure out what gender you are. If you go to /activity/analytics/events-*.json and grep for predicted_gender you get something like:
{
"user_id": "282657081457115136",
"predicted_gender": "male",
"probability": 0.8413839340209961,
"prob_male": 0.8413839340209961,
"prob_female": 0.11650349199771881,
"prob_non_binary_gender_expansive": 0.04211260750889778,
"model_version": "2024-05-08T00:00:00.000000Z",
"day_pt": "2024-05-15 00:00:00 UTC"
}Anyway, they seem to have this datapoint _over time_! Meaning you can make a graph of how male/female/NB you are according to discord, here is mine:
why are garbage sdr-mascarading-as-hdr photos still a thing on phones? a lot of modern phones have both true-hdr displays and true-hdr sensors. why do i need to shoot raw on an iphone and then edit in lightroom to make use of that hardware? why can't apple process a few extra bits of data on the fly? this feels incredibly odd because the jump in quality you get from this process is immediately apparent to even the most un-technical person, and the hardware is many years old at this point
