i like snakes and a free palestine

aside from the aforementioned affection towards snakes, i also hold a great deal of fondness in my heart for hollow knight (i am extremely normal™ about collector), rain world (miros birds are the best creature i will not be accepting criticism on this), command and conquer red alert 2 (kirov reporting), in stars and time (one must imagine sisyphus stuck in a time loop), and about a million other things.
i played through slay the princess and spent the whole game pretty much completely ignoring her in favor of dicking around with the narrator (there is no good ending because the narrator always dies) and the voices (contrarian is the best one), which probably says a lot about me (i am aromantic asexual (this will not stop me from rebugging horny™ shit that i am tangentially interested in)).
fuck it i'm a girl now (still he/they tho)
i also like to draw and make games & shit.

The MS AI ceo's attitude is impacting my mood every single day at work as someone who has to help manage a fleet of servers that is constantly getting hammered to be picked clean for data.

We've seen AI bot start (poorly) impersonating valid user agents in an attempt to bypass blocks we've been setting up and tuning for months. It's gotten to the point where I'm starting to file requests to entirely block chunks of IP space owned by Amazon and Microsoft because I'm not sure of any other way to prevent their impact.

They're effectively DoSing businesses for their data.

there's been an endless wave of scrapers from the hauwei cloud crawling all over the forum i run.

there's usually 20 or so of those scrapers at any given time, going through every link they find, across hundreds of ip addresses.

the board keeps daily stats, so you can see where the "views per day" goes from about 1,000 to 10,000+. and it has been going on for months, now, slowly ramping up.

the ms ai ceo guy's attitude is the kind of thing that should result in every single person who has done anything on the internet standing over him and beating him with a louisville slugger until he understands why that's a problem. and then that mob should move on to every single other ai-brained dipshit.
