Remeber when dorks were smart people who used technology in creative ways? Now dorks are just ugly bitches who take photos next to a Macintosh because they’re too dumb or ugly to have an OnlyFans page.

Some people reported that I have some broken links in my RSS feed. Thank you for pointing that out, it’s due to a way hugo works when it’s building sites. I’ve updated my blog deploy script and should be fine from now on. Thanks, frens, for pointing it out!

I wanted to post some older screenshots I had on my Xbox, but it seems that they started to delete automatically screenshots older than 90 days. So keep in mind to backup your data. Womp.

I realized a few days ago that making a mostly static website, I can also make a script that parses the logs for hits on places that don’e exist and that bots usually hit, like POST requests on /xmlrpc.php. And I wasn’t surprised to notice that over nine days, I’ve discovered 196 requests coming from about 90 IPs (for privacy, my server doesn’t log the last block of the IP address). I could publish the list of those classes, but picking randomly from it, this looks like simple malware-infected home hosts, so it’s pretty useless. But it’s a nice to see the URLs the bots and spammers try to access. Here’s a list:

On August 24, 1995, Microsoft released Windows 95, their operating system which introduced numerous functions and features that were featured in later Windows versions, and continue in modern variations to this day, such as the taskbar, the notification area, file shortcuts on the desktop, plug and play driver integration, removal of the requirement to have a separate copy of MS-DOS, the ability to full screen application windows, native internet integration, raising the maximum letters a filename can have from eight to 255, the Windows Explorer, and the “Start” button which summons the Start menu.

That was 30 years ago.

Throwback to when Valentino Rossi tested a Ferrari F1 car and ended up just 0.7’s off Michael Schumacher’s pace…

Michael had set a time of 1m 11.640s with Rossi, driving an older spec of car and engine, lapping in 1m12.362s.

Former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemelo was so impressed he suggested that the team would field Rossi in a third car if the rules allowed it.
