That’s so nice to hear. Hopefully it becomes a yearly tradition to watch it.

We introduced it to our daughter this year. She was a little scared but enjoyed it nonetheless. I caught myself wishing there were more shows like it, but it’s so unique and that’s probably why I love it so much.

It really is a wonderful show. I watched it again recently because it’s that time of year, so this was on my mind. 😁

I guess if you can’t beat them it’s the next best thing.

I hear the headless body of Spiro Agnew is on the shortlist.

“Look, Laura Loomer is not affiliated with the Trump campaign. She said something about curry in the White House that I first read about this morning actually, because I knew that you would ask me about it…” [emphasis my own]

These guys are terrible liars. Between him and Trump, they sound like they have no idea what is going on.

Don’t let your memes be dreams.

You should just become a drug dealing Onlyfans girl then. 🤷

This is correct. I work in bot detections. There are baseline checks for various browser automation used as bot frameworks like Puppeteer or Playwright. Then there is basic analysis of server side and client side fingerprints; meaning, do the fingerprints you claim make sense. There are other heuristics too and I imagine Cloudflare is monitoring movements that point to automation. All of this happens after you click. I personally prefer this over Google’s captcha which frequently doesn’t recognize me as a human but is easily bypassed by bots.

I’m a blade runner. 😁

I don’t think it’s a bad idea but it’s largely dependent on the crawler. I can’t speak for AI based crawlers, but typical scraping targets specific elements on a page or grabbing the whole page and parsing it for what you’re looking for. In both instances, your content is already scrapped and added to the pile. Overall, I have to wonder how long “poisoning the water well” is going to work. You can take me with a grain of salt, though; I work on detecting bots for a living.

Thank you for the response. This isn’t my field of study but my Astronomy professor back in college pointed to Venus as a possible outcome for Earth if we continued with our current emissions. I know atmospheric CO2 levels in the past were much higher on Earth but I’m truthfully not sure I understand what mechanisms Earth has that Venus lacked. I’m not trying to argue the point; really, I just want to learn.

Lastly, I love your username. It sounds delightful.

Yes, absolutely, you are right. The comments in this thread and elsewhere are that Earth will be fine. Our current trajectory doesn’t bode well for that assertion.

Venus would also like a word.

Edit: For anyone curious, I’m referring to Venus as a potential model for runaway greenhouse effect.

I hear you and admit that I did misunderstand your point. Thanks for chiming in and clarifying. For the record, I didn’t downvote you and I’m sorry you’re being misunderstood overall.

You can’t blame kids for trying to get away from camps if they’re abusive.

Trigger warning.

Look at Mr.RichGuy over here getting to retire.

Okey-dokey! Okey-dokey!

Well then, good news. It’s a suppository!
