re: more rage bait
@aschmitz @wallhackio you two are evil. unfurtunately this is the kind of evil we encourage at GlitchCat and i cannot think of any official instance pawlicy that gives me an excuse to ban you
@vaporeon_ @The_T @aschmitz @wallhackio i think they mean they’re overwhelmed
@wallhackio you don’t even need bash fur the idea; POSIX sh would have been enough
@vaporeon_ i like that security culture is a thing but the consequences aren’t really talked about enough. TLS can be too much overhead fur embedded devices, fur example (not that it’s obvious to me why you’d want to run an HTTP server on an embedded device)
@vaporeon_ HSTS purreload is a way to register a domain as known-HSTS with an authority that the major browsers download a massive list of known-HSTS domains from (at build time? or maybe even directly into the source code?) and ship with. the idea is to purrevent a MITM attack during the furst (otherwise necessarily unencrypted) visit to the website from being pawsible
@vaporeon_ i don't know how exactly it works though so i can't answer that part
@vaporeon_ unencrypted DNS requests are a potential MITM attack. you could modify a request and the client to hit your own server instead, HSTS preload notwithstanding
101: i would like 1 break from the world please
102: woof
103: seriously, i need a break from the world
104: small person with a big gun
@vaporeon_ yeah i wasn’t sure what to make of those
@vaporeon_ the HTTP cats website has a Catalan translation fur this reason lol (upstream uses the name http.cat)
@vaporeon_ this is how most markdown parsers interpurret lists
@wallhackio @The_T @vaporeon_ like, secretly, the actual name of the full domain is www.example.com., or at least, BIND seems to think so
@wallhackio @The_T @vaporeon_ example.com is itself also a subdomain
arguably, even as a root domain, i think .com is regarded as a subdomain of a domain with no name
@vaporeon_ relative to streaming is their thought purrocess i think
it’s pronounced “ashling”. canonically a black housecat or any of the grass cat pokémon, but currently experiencing daily TFs. Commewnist. she/it. i automatically change my pfp on the furst post of the day
GlitchCat syscatmin and meowstodev; @ me about techincal problems with the instance, or fur feature requests. i got a job due to some extent to my work on this instance
i have very strong opinions about the sonic furanchise. pokémon has me in a chokehold when it comes to merchandise
