nubinetwork··on Making My Blog Readable by AI Agents
I get the odd one try on my personal site, but usually its just robots.txt... /shrug
nubinetwork··on Listen and read USA nuclear forces Emergency Action Messages, heard on 11175 kHz

nubinetwork··on How does Fable 5.1 hide messages in images?
Since svg is a "described" format, can't you just stuff text comments into the file? No weird steganography techniques needed, afaik...
nubinetwork··on Quad9 (DNS Resolver) to Exit France
That was 20 years ago
nubinetwork··on ThinkPad I9990303 Error Catch-22
Some early computers with a key toggled the keyboard power, rather than preventing someone from turning off the power switch... I guess it was more important to keep people from typing things than it was keeping the system powered up. The 80s and early 90s were weird times. /shrug
nubinetwork··on Security advisory: Critical remote code execution vulnerabilities, update now
Maybe that explains the terrible rng...
nubinetwork··on Upcoming critical PHP security release (CVE-2026-109618 / -109619)
> umamusume

How does a mobile game use PHP? Wouldn't the game code use a custom socket and protocol for its comms?

nubinetwork··on Nurses Are in High Demand–But They're Quitting in Droves
They're also replaced in droves. We build hundreds of new student accounts at $dayjob on a monthly basis.
nubinetwork··on The reverts will continue until morale improves
> ...you’re staring at a list of like forty defect reports. And even if each of them requires only a three-line fix on average, there is a fixed overhead to dealing with each of these, and then you run out of time.

I'm not sure I understand this, for an OSS project, the only timeframes at play are self-imposed. I don't think most people would care if you pushed a release back by a week to fix some last minute bugs. /shrug

nubinetwork··on Linux 7.3
Just because you have a device tree file, doesn't mean its correct, or even accurate.
nubinetwork··on The One Question I Can't Stand at Restaurants ("What's your phone number?")
Phone number is fine, I only got one of those, it's an easy no...

The one I hate is when places ask for my email address... even if I wanted to, I have like 6 email addresses, which one do you want? Don't ask me to repeat it 20 times because you can't spell. Fuck it, I give up, no email either. :(

nubinetwork··on Waymo in Toronto
You just drive over it until it becomes a thick, flat sheet of ice... and hopefully not rutted, or else you'll get stuck trying to move your car in the morning.
nubinetwork··on eBay Restricts Listings of Radio Equipment, but Exempts Ham-Band-Only Gear
The purpose of the restriction is to keep people from using hacked baofengs to chat on bands a) they're not allowed to use unlicensed b) could potentially already be in use by another service eg EMS/fire/police.
nubinetwork··on Last rites for Gentoo's Chromium package
I tried some months ago, and it'll make a blank one fine, but if you need a complex configure or install phase, I felt I was better off doing it by hand.
nubinetwork··on Last rites for Gentoo's Chromium package
Most ai wouldn't know how to write a proper ebuild to save their lives.
nubinetwork··on Major ICQ security hole (1998)
Unix crypt only accepted 8 characters and ignored the rest. If your password was 123456789, it was considered the same as 12345678a.
nubinetwork··on Steam Client is now faster than Epic's new vibe coded launcher
A modern computer runs circles around your 90s computer... if the code was the same, it should be crazy fast. Instead, everything is a web browser, and each of them need to load 1gb of junk into memory each time you click on them.
nubinetwork··on I posted to HN, and then my website was flooded with AI bot traffic
I get llm-like traffic on domains with zero web content (never was, probably never will be any).

Just merely existing will get you scanned these days.

nubinetwork··on Making big downloads resumable in Firefox
How big are we talking? I download ISOs all the time...
nubinetwork··on Postgres isn't slow, your storage is
For what its worth, some databases just run like trash. I've put a database on nvme raid and still had some queries take 5 seconds.
nubinetwork··on Total Annihilation, rebuilt for modern computers
TA's ai was pretty dumb, actually... on most maps with unpassable water, they'll happily crank out kbots without building any ships or planes, until it hits the unit limit.
nubinetwork··on IRCv3
I can't be bothered to sign up for both libera and oftc. When everything was on freenode, you didn't have to jump through any hoops just to ask a question.
nubinetwork··on IRCv3
IRC is dead to me, you can thank Andrew Lee (of Freenode infamy) for that one.
nubinetwork··on ICANN Reveals 2026 Round Applications for New Generic Top-Level Domains
Please, no more... don't we already have enough junk tlds?
nubinetwork··on What's Earth's dominant species by mass?
Was surprised not to see whales on the list
nubinetwork··on VGHF Digital Archive passes 5000 magazines. Here's what's next
They tout vghf as a museum, but you're really funding Frank's private collection.
nubinetwork··on Tell HN: Uceprotect is extorting website owners
Theoretically speaking, a person could get themselves blocked, request an unblocking, and keep on spamming, hoping they won't get blocked again.
nubinetwork··on Pixel 11 doesn't yet meet the GrapheneOS security standards and may be skipped
Old news
nubinetwork··on The Nintendo 64 Partner-N64 Development Kit
Ugh, how the heck am I blocked, I don't think I've ever accessed this website before.
