Then report. We actually take action on this.

The Disengage rule is not meant to allow the last word in. If you want to force a disengage, just reply with a simple "disengage" and optionally with some neutral text on why if you feel like it. If people disregard the rule then, you're welcome to report.

Lemmy likes putting ancient posts to the top when one is going by hot and has "hide read posts" on

In game AI can be pretty sophisticated even without the addition of neural nets which could be OK with determining strategy based on player action, but really isn't going to be good for the entire control.

Given that it has been the weak point in almost all 4x games in the past 30 years, I'd be happy if they give anything novel a try

Actually if they can use that to make good ai opponents for 4x games, it'd be pretty sweet

It's typical campist shit. It's not pro gun, it's just "USSR good, America bad" propaganda as if we're living in the fucking 60s. Which is par for the course for tankie rhetoric ofc.

It's clearly not a "pro-gun" meme. The point it's making is not "be pro-gun". You're being deliberately disingenuous

Having a comm we can link from posts like these to say "go argue in there" is something that could be useful

There's some leeway provided for people to support their arguments towards PTB/YDI. But I don't want the comments to become a pure political argument.

Reminder to keep the comments on the mod actions. Don't start debating the war in Ukraine in here

Ahoy m@tes, the scraping bot situation has been escalating recently, as you all may have already noticed by the recent site instability and 5xx error responses. @tenchiken@anarchist.nexus has been scrambling to block new scraping subnets as they appear, but these assholes keep jumping providers so it's been an endless loop and constant firefighting.

I finally had enough and decided to onboard a Proof-of-Work countermeasure, very much like Anubis which has been very popular on the fediverse lately. However I went with Haphash which has been especially designed around haproxy (our reverse proxy of choice) and is hopefully much more lightweight.

The new PoW shield has already been activated on both Divisions by Zero on Fediseer as well. It's not active on all URLs,. but it should be protecting those which have the most impact on our database, which is what was causing the actual issue. You should notice a quick loading screen on occasion while it's verifying you.

We've already seen a significant reduction in 5xx HTTP errors, as well as a slight reduction in traffic, so we're hoping this will make a good impact in our situation.

Please do let us know if you run into any issues, and also let us know if you feel any difference in responsiveness. The first m@ates already feel it's all snappier, but that just be placebo.

And let's hope the next scraping wave is not pwned residential botnets, or we're all screwed >_<

 

I'll be making an effortpost on my blog soon-ish about it, before promptly losing interest in it forever.
