twtxt.net) was being hammered by something at a request rate of 30 req/s (there are global rate limits in place, but still...). The culprit? Turned out to be a particular IP 43.134.51.191 and after looking into who own s that IP I discovered it was yet-another-bad-customer-or-whatever from Tencent, so that entire network (ASN) is now blocked from my Edge:
@prologic@twtxt.net Time to make a new internet. Maybe one that intentionally doesn’t “scale” and remains slow (on both ends) so it’s harder to overload in this manner, harder to abuse for tracking your every move, … Got any of those 56k modems left?

Tuckr - Stow alternative with symlink checking
I’ve been using Stow for a few years now. At the time (2020) Stow had a bug where it would just fail with a cryptic error and the maintainer didn’t have time to fix it, the bug was there for 2 years or so. So I got fed up and decided to try and fix it but I didn’t know perl nor did I want to learn it, so I decided to rewrite Stow and fix the issue. To fix it I decided that I track all symlinks and give users a nice way to see what was going on. So the entire project was based on having a n … ⌘ Read more

It frustrates me that people who refuse to deal with Google, Apple or Microsoft for reasons of privacy or freedom are seen as the weird ones. The level of tracking, surveillance, advertising, hedonism, and societal fear being imposed on us is not normal.
