I feel this. Recently _some_ company, I have no idea which, has decided my IP is malicious and refuses to serve my requests. This has effectively banned me from a few websites, including a government service I pay taxes for.


I'm slightly ashamed to admit I don't know what RPZ, PTR, or SPF are, nor do I understand the asides about AI or reverse DNS.

What precisely is his problem with Amazon?


Meaningless low-value and non-human traffic wasting resources and/or training models. Their blog is for real humans per the author's writing, which is a valid stance to take.

Aged like wine.

Anyway, 0x83.

Similarly I find I sometimes enjoy listening to the radio more than Spotify because I don't feel forced to min/max my enjoyment. I have to listen to whatever is on.


I tried getting into OSRS a few weeks ago. I noticed the official Jagex client doesn't run on Linux, so I installed RuneLite. However Jagex recently mandated the transition of email/password logins to a fancy proprietary OAuthy thing that _requires_ their official launcher.

Apparently the kosher way around this is installing RuneLite and the Jagex launcher in Lutris or Wine, but I just gave up.


I installed this flatpak-packaged Jagex Launcher and RuneLite, and it works flawlessly on Linux. It does run in Wine, but the package takes care of setting that up.

It is seemingly somewhat officially sanctioned, as a help article links to a repo that links to the flatpak.

Hey, that's me!


Just want to say I really appreciate you maintaining this!


I use https://github.com/Adamcake/Bolt to play on Linux with a Jagex account.

It's frustrating that Jagex won't support Linux directly, though.


This doesn't seem right, I use runelite on linux fine without any extra lutris or wine stuff. As far as I know you don't need the official launcher.

Edit: oh, I understand, I have an old account without the jagex launcher stuff. New accouts apparently need it. Well that sucks for you, I'm sorry.


Have you migrated to a Jagex Account yet? You probably haven't done that which is why you can still play without the official launcher.


You're correct, see my edit above.


I've seen Futhark on the front page a few times recently, has there been a resurgence of interest for some reason?

Exciting if so. I think it's a cool language


Fortunately Debian maintainers have a fantastic track record of writing ad-hoc patches for security-sensitive software.


I dislike that people interpret this adage being violated as an example of English's inconsistency. The clearer conclusion is that it just isn't true.

I could say "every word in English starts with ß" and then point out that every single word violates this rule. What a crazy language!

But that would be silly. Not because English is crazy, but because that obviously isn't true.


The ability to describe a language with useful and concise rules make a language easier to understand and learn. I think this serves as a perfectly reasonable metric for how "crazy" or consistent a natural language is. What other definition of consistency would matter to anyone?


The communities are generally significantly smaller but yes. Двач, 8chan, lain, and sharty come to mind.

They're rarely "nice" places though (lain is fairly pleasant).


Ironically, IME the smaller imageboard is the higher average discussion quality ends up. I really enjoy having anonymous discussions on smaller chans, though of course it's still not a very productive endeavor (just like reading reddit or HN).
