@MLE_online I misread that as “rave beetle”. I half think it made just as much sense that way. @futurebird

@foone TrueCrypt maybe? It had hidden file systems with plausible deniability (with some questions about how foolproof that was against analysts). It was discontinued a long time ago though…

@slothrop @rysiek This bit made me eye roll so hard:“It’s never buyer vs. seller, us vs. them - it’s all of us working together. To grow the digital economy.”Which I interpret to mean:“It’s never ad buyer vs. ad seller, us vs. them - it’s all of us working together against the common enemy, the consumers. To grow the digital economy at their expense.”

@foone I shudder to think of what the AUbros and billionaire cos players on the orange site are saying there. @jwz has a rewrite rule on his web server to goatse requests with a referrer from there. (I wonder it that still works? I have no clue what the current state of referrer headers from modern browsers is.)

@vees I’d consider setting up a fail2ban rule - black hole an ip address for 24hrs or so if they break a sensible rate limit. Set it high enough that human browsing and well behaved and wanted bits (like Google Bot perhaps) never hit it. Bytedance/CCP can gtfo…

@futurebird I bought this a while back, because it seemed like such a fun idea. As you can see, it’s still in the box, unassembled. :sigh:

@engagedpractx Do you have any futanari? No? How about some bukkake? (I’m sorry officer, what did I do?)

@futurebird I fought (and lost) against the Top Posters in the many skirmishes and hostilities that preceded the outbreak of full HTML email war.

@madpilot And Imperial measurements. Surely it’ll only be a week or two before the Executive Order mandating everything is measured in TrumpHands or MuskPenises, right?

Just got another Trumpet Of Arseholes SMS spam. I sent it as a screenshot to Harry Fong, with some “commentary “ which I’d share, but the aus.social mods don’t need any more grief from me about this.

@futurebird If you're ever in Sydney...https://bellybao.com(I don't actually rate their bao burgers. There's better burgers within walking distance. The rest of their food is pretty damned good though.)

@MelissaBearTrix Spending a few minutes sharpening your knives can save you time at the crime scene, and potentially years in prison…

You know what? If you’re Jewish and are not loudly and repeatedly pointing out that Zionism is currently committing genocide? And you’re not speaking out in support of Palestine?Then fuck you! Fuck right off, and next time you complain about anti-semitism, I’m likely to tell you it’s a pity your whole murderous fucking religion didn’t die in the gas chambers. No more fucking sympathy for things that happened to your predecessors when you are doing it to other people right now.Fuck you all.(And if this gets my aus.social account shut down? Well that’ll show me whose side the mods and Shlee are on.)#gaza #freepalestine #freedomflotilla https://kolektiva.social/@micchiato/114651022699197022

@futurebird An “AI” (in the intentionally confusingly marketed LLM/Chatbot sense) dies not “an individual” so much as a collective of stolen examples of words written by individual humans, so to me, by far the most appropriate pronouns are they/them - in the plural sense interpretation as well as the non-gender-specific meaning.
