  • If you’re looking to stop them from wasting your traffic, do not use a tarpit. The whole point of it is that it makes the scraper get stuck on your server forever. That means you pay for the traffic the scraper uses, and it will continually rack up those charges until the people running it wise up and ban your server. The question you gotta ask yourself is, who has more money, you or the massive AI corp?

    Tarpits are the dumbest bit of anti-AI tech to come out yet.







  • Stop eating processed foods. That’s what my doctor told me, and when I started taking the effort to make food from raw ingredients, not only did I start feeling a lot better in general, but my wife and I also learned a valuable life skill. Just the other day, she made chicken alfredo entirely from scratch, and it was amazing.

    I didn’t realize how bad I was feeling until I stopped eating so much processed stuff and started feeling better. I was so used to feeling like shit, that my body just thought that was how people normally felt. I had no idea people were walking around feeling this good, and having this much energy.


  • As long as bot does not engage in the problematic activities that drag does, I don’t need proof that bot is not drag. I am not, after all, a mod or admin, nor do I intend to ever be.

    Which isn’t to say the people in charge of various instances or communities won’t take you up on that offer. But I’m willing to let bot be, and to refer to bot as bot pleases, so long as bot isn’t making a mockery of trans people. Times are hard for queer folk of all kinds, and I don’t like seeing trans folk being mocked. I don’t like that at all, bot.
