Meta's bot crawler is really stupid.
Although I blocked its user agent yesterday, returning a 403 Forbidden reply, it keeps on crawling my online copy of wikipedia 🤪
grep "meta-externalagent" access.log | grep " 403 " | wc -l

The internet is weird. I put something online for humans, and bots are the first to show up. Maybe I should start a blog just for them? 🤖📡🤔
With a captcha to block humans!

I miss Spring... I need a better weather.
I don't know if it is due to climate change, but, for several years, it seems there is only two seasons: Winter and Summer

GitHub has gone - long live Forgejo (@forgejo).
Fully migrated out of Microsoft’s walled garden after they blocked us:
- 54k commits
- 9.5k issues
- 4.3k pull requests
- 100k comments
Everything moved. Nothing left behind.
Since I have put online a bunch of zim files on zim.pollux.casa, many bots are crawling them. I don't understand why they are scanning my wikipedia copies. The original sites are certainly more efficient.
Some are clearly identified by their user agent, but others try to hide themselves under stupid user agent fingerprint...
Here are some examples :
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/532.0 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/4.0.212.0 Safari/532.0
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:22.0) Gecko/20130405 Firefox/22.0
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/535.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu/10.10 Chromium/17.0.963.65 Chrome/17.0.963.65 Safari/535.11
Who is using Chrome 4.0 or Firefox 22.0, and Ubuntu 10.10 ???
Unfortunately, kiwix-serve (serving zim files on my machine) does not provide a robots.txt file to avoid these crawlers, I had to forbid access at web server level (lighttpd) according to the useragent string.
$HTTP["useragent"] =~ "(?i)spider|tiktokspider|claudebot|googlebot|meta-external|scrapy|sogou|petalbot|dotbot|mj12bot|crawl|bingbot|yandex|baidu|duckduckbot|facebook|amazon|grok|facebot|slurp|exabot|ahrefs|mj12bot|semrush|perplexity|gptbot|chatgpt|ccbot" {
url.access-deny = ("")
}
but faked user agents continue to crawl 😐
I'm so tired these days... I do nothing (other than my job).
😫

Creating A GoToSocial Instance on FediHost
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

Hello nerds, another #GoToSocial bugfix release :) Turns out 0.18.2 wasn't the last one after all.
https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases/tag/v0.18.3
This one fixes a bug with domain subscriptions with orphan adoption, which could cause entries for the subscription to not be created. An important bugfix for island networks that rely on allowlist subscription(s) to keep everyone in the network on the same allowlist(s).
Also small wording changes on the frontend, and a fix for an issue that could cause error messages to be swallowed on startup.
If you're updating to this version from v0.18.0, v0.18.1, or v0.18.2, it's a very easy update with no db migrations or config file changes :)
If you're updating to this version from a version before v0.18.0, please follow the update instructions from v0.18.0, but replace 0.18.0 with 0.18.3 throughout. Be aware that the update to 0.18.x contains some very long migrations. Please do read the notes carefully.
I've just watched "Blue is the warmest color" ("La vie d'Adèle" in French).
Beautiful! ♥️
Some scenes are really hot 🌶️ 🔞
A Foot Pedal To Supplement Your Keyboard

Someone reminded me today 9 years ago I submitted my first post on Mastodon—using curl on the command line, since there was no interface at the time. That's how the journey began! 9 years is a long time to be doing something. Those early years are still fresh in my mind though.
