I’m rewatching old Star Trek episodes to see which ones pass the B’kdel Test:
(1) Two named Klingons
(2) Talking to each other
(3) About something other than honor

Cloudflare's malware protection resolver (1.1.1.2) now blocks archive.today as a Botnet C&C: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47474255

This is absolutely warranted, seeing that archive.today abused its customers for a ddos attack against a blog that the (anonymous) owner disliked.

It's also a welcome help for media companies worldwide for whom archive.today is a thorn in their side, bypassing paywalls and other content gates.

IMO: This shows - again - the dilemma of filtering resolvers.

Cloudflare flags archive.today as "C&C/Botnet"; no longer resolves via 1.1.1.2 | Hacker News

I heard the sound of my cat in the kitchen hacking away. I went to have a look and it turned out I was right – he was establishing an SSH connection to a custom port while wearing a black hoodie.

An unexpected thing happened: somehow I received a special award at the Pégases (french game industry awards), partly recognizing the continued work on Dear ImGui. Thank you🙏 https://academiejeuvideo.org
