@lanodan I don't, I usually go by gut feeling. Anything "controversial" is, I believe, will work. Controversial as in any LMBTQ+ themes, anything sexual, or anti-fascist. Anything you hear in the news fascist governments and far-right groups get worked up over.

Trump regime, including DoJ on its own behalf, has identified to Judge Boasberg the individuals who together disobeyed his orders to return Venezualans in mid-flight to U.S. when the regime first acted to remove them pursuant to the Alien Enemies Act. 1/ #LawFedi https://assets.bwbx.io/documents/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/rF.CJry9fVkI/v0
@heidilifeldman Hello Heidi
Managed PieFed hosting with fedihost.co
If you’d like a PieFed instance of your own but don’t want to deal with setting up a server, installing PieFed, and maintaining it yourself, get in touch with the team at fedihost.co! They’re currently offering reduced-price PieFed hosting to a limited number of instances as part of a beta program.
They’re looking for a mix of new and established PieFed instances so they can better understand real-world resource usage and what people need.
hate it when my friends do this
After Robert Redford passed away, started reserving some of his movies from the library for the family to watch. We did Sneakers a few weeks ago. Tonight we watched The Sting. Some of it is a bit dated, but mostly holds up as a movie.
Evolution doesn’t look how it’s depicted in pop culture. We often picture the famous “March of Progress” illustration where a series of apes stand in line leading to a modern human.
But evolution is not linear. It branches and branches. Divides in some places and recombines in others. #science

at least parts of (eukaryotic) yeast and human genes are "homologous" and functionally similar enough to function in either "host "

I'm re-reading The Big Con, by David Maurer, because I love the argot of early 20th century confidence men, but also because a book about how grifting works holds great explanatory power generations after it was written.
@evacide As a fan of The Sting, and having an interest in con games and other grifts, I can't believe I'd never heard of this book.
Thanks! Perfect timing for the long holiday weekend.
@decryption @jpm @shlee What's that run after construction costs (eg the monthly charge)?

Sorry guys, I know it's mainstream but #DWTS Elaine has been remarkable and I am so proud of her; a few weeks back her dance performance nearly brought me to tears, which isn't a phrase I think I've ever uttered before.
This is the first season I've ever watched, and it has been a very impressive season.
I just have to refrain from licking the TV screen when Robert Irwin appears
Apropos of defense. In my last blog post, I mentioned that poisoned URLs got the bots that evaded the rest of my defenses.
Thing is, if I blocked poisoned URLs, like I did during the big wave the other day, the chart would look very different.
Like the attached image.
Poisoned URLs are by far the most effective ruleset I have. The only reason they don't show up on @iocaine's daily charts is because I wanted to see the others, so I ordered these last.
If I were going for best performance, I'd put this first, and would perhaps simply disconnect them with Caddy, without serving them anything. I don't do that, because I'm collecting logs and metrics. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy that they fail so miserably.
What I'm trying to say here is: serve them garbage. Serve them poisoned URLs. And even when they come back with real browsers, they will be hitting the poisoned URLs, and you'll be able to tell them to sit on a cactus.

@lety @purplepadma Maybe I'm just old, but 69 (nice) will always be the funniest number
@catsalad @lety @purplepadma My lil' bro (born 10 years after me) was born in 1969. So when I went to college I got him a jersey with 69 on it.
My mother kinda explained.
But later I got to explain to my mother what a d1ld0 was :P
I just heard from a grad student that there is an "LSD Sort" (which is a much cooler name for radix sort)
