And now I'm at 166,0KiB or 64% smaller.That's still a lot, but not the 93% I could achieve if there was an option to selectively clear the frame on each display update.

But here's another idea: Can I modify the original file to make it boot quicker?Let's give that a try.

The unmodified original takes 60 seconds from pressing reboot to reaching the boot screen and another 15 seconds until the login prompt.

Got the original down to 1,6KiB from 29,5KiB. Let's see how it does in the speedtest.

Here we go! Finally, something I can call a success: From pressing reboot to the boot screen It took 35 seconds and then an additional 19 seconds to the login prompt.

Note: n=1 and I can't be bothered to do more testing. Do I look like a scientist to you?

So while I didn't manage to speed up boot time by making the animation smaller, I found that the device takes double as long every second boot.

One of these days I'll solder some wires to the serial pins to see if I get some kernel logs during boot out of it.I'd really like to know why the boot times are so drastically different.

Ok, so the boot animation doesn't affect the boot time at all as it looks like.My "big" 166KiB custom one also takes either 30 or 60 seconds.

Oh, and about the Wikipedia thing: The problem still exists. Could not open the file (or any smaller one). The App just crashes and that's it.I still can access Wikipedia over the browser, but that's not the same.

I've just ordered something from an online shop with a 25 char limit in the Company field name.I edited the limit using inspect element and there seems to be no other filter in place.At least they use a recent PHP version (8.1.28). I know because that's what the X-Mailer entry in their automated email said.

@internetarchive @brewsterkahle Why didn't the fucking cat rotate their leaked API keys?Also: correct me if I'm wrong, but stuff from their GitLab getting leaked is new information. Previously, news outlets only reported about stolen user credentials.

@bmi >Mit deutlicher deeskalierender WirkungDas ist jetzt schon eine steile Behauptung. Zum schluss werden die Dinger dann wie in den USA anstelle von Deeskalation eingesetzt.

@bmi Die logische schlussfolgerung aus dem Zitat wäre doch dann ein AFD-Verbot, oder?
