  • Anubis does its thing, shows me cute art, then leaves without elaborating. It’s a mostly non-intrusive, individual/community effort to protect people against big tech and abusive scrapers. I usually see it in open source community websites that were getting hammered by LLM scrapers.

    Cloudflare’s is a corporate solution from the company that man-in-the-middles half the internet and makes me click shit every fucking time. I see it whenever I make the mistake of following a stackoverflow link.

    You’re goddamn right my reaction is accordingly different.


  • It’s not perfect, sure, but we as a society should be capable of deciding that some things aren’t okay without giving the state carte blanche to censor as they see fit. If the system can be abused, then we ought to fix it, not forgo it entirely.

    Plus, governments and companies already suppress or ban a bunch of speech, often in favor of the ruling class. I doubt outlawing harmful speech like parent comment suggests would be the straw that breaks democracy’s back.


  • Teslas in general I’m on the fence about, though people should be discouraged from purchasing new ones.

    The Wankpanzer? Piss on it for all I care. Damn thing is a hazard to every pedestrian, every car, to the fucking driver themselves. That shitbox’s a mistake, and it isn’t even a cheap one. Draw on dust (“vandalize” lol), glue stickers, spray paint, what’s the harm? Gonna make a musk fan sad? He’s trying to ruin a nation. Anyone that’s still his fan needs to wake the fuck up.


  • Sometimes, while seeing discourse about the US, I think our region should try to better align itself with Europe, that stronger connections and cooperation could benefit us both.

    Then I see how Europeans get when our name comes up and it’s no wonder we’re calling China instead. Sure, they don’t care about us either, but at least they put on an act and we might get something out of it rather than just racism and neocolonialism.

    Really, I’m steadily approaching the point where I wouldn’t mind much if you all nuked each other out of existence, much like you wouldn’t care if we disappeared either. In the absence of names, no such thing as friends beyond borders.
