gjs278··on How I Made $200k When I Was 16 Years Old Through Coding (2018)
how did they break the bots? I made a very basic runescape autoclicker at https://www.garyshood.com/rsclient/ I wonder if it gets banned in game now.
gjs278··on Rethinking Files
files can be modified by any text editor in /etc it sounds like you are advocating for a system similar to the windows registry. it can easily corrupt and can’t be fixed by live cds or other operating systems that have the filesystem driver. it would be a massive step backwards.

this is why online communities than ban instead of suspend are throwing away otherwise helpful users
gjs278··on Ask HN: A Good Alternative for ReCaptcha?
I do this but I also put a javascript field that is already checked and js unchecks it. not great for no script users but pretty good for any random bot that is using curl or some other scripting language and doesn’t check your trap box.

gjs278··on EU Agencies Falsely Report More Than 550 Archive.org URLs as Terrorist Content
what the EU thinks is irrelevant. I wouldn't respond to a GDPR notice, a cookie notice, "terrorist content" takedowns. they are free to block my site. I'm free to never visit their 1984 land. good thing the UK is leaving them.

gjs278··on Bitcoin ETF research finds that 95% of Bitcoin volume is fake
I read the comment as email us with the reason you should be unbanned and we will consider it. instead you are told that the email was a waste of time.

my point is why make the users email? just explain that you’ve been banned but the users can unban you. there’s no point in tricking the user into thinking emailing can get you unbanned.

it would be like going to a parole board hearing and being told there’s no way we’re letting you go free, we’re not in charge of it. ok well then why did you invite me here?

gjs278··on Bitcoin ETF research finds that 95% of Bitcoin volume is fake
for anyone that actually wants to take the time to email, all they do is tell you to keep making comments that others vouch for and maybe one day you’ll get unbanned. they won’t actually do it just based on you agreeing to follow the rules. kinda condescending and misleading.
