[03:33:11] superkuh/rizon I'm still waiting on a US FDA approved intranasal booster for sterilizing immunity. Until then, the pandemic continues.

[17:43:16] superkuh/rizon "http needs updated"?

[17:43:30] superkuh/rizon Oh, the bot.

[17:44:02] superkuh/rizon Yeah, mega-corps have been switching away from using HTML for a long time. And now they're switching away from TCP and using QUIC.

[17:44:36] superkuh/rizon Nowadays HTTP/3 spec is basically just a transport for javascript code, very little to do with hypertext.

[17:46:36] superkuh/rizon Epic fail by Google, yes. And it hurts us all as humans.

[17:46:59] superkuh/rizon A <title>asfdjaotihont</title> tag is apparently too much to ask.

[17:47:24] superkuh/rizon Google is switching all their services to their in-house invented UDP based protocol called QUIC, which they and MS open-washed through the IETF as HTTP/3.

[17:47:41] superkuh/rizon And since they have browser near monopoly it works for most people.

[17:47:47] superkuh/rizon It just breaks things that depend on the web being web.

[17:49:25] superkuh/rizon You'll use the applications your telecommunications company allows you to use on your smartphone and you'll like it.

[17:51:43] superkuh/rizon And definitely not any of that web components crap.

[17:51:53] superkuh/rizon h4, only because I browse with JS turned off by default.

[17:52:11] superkuh/rizon Yep.

[17:52:29] superkuh/rizon It's okay though, those were shit sites to begin with most likely. </sourgrapes>

[17:53:09] superkuh/rizon Reading websites.

[17:53:15] superkuh/rizon I just don't run web applications.

[17:53:29] superkuh/rizon The actual web is still around underneath all the modern commercial JS crap.

[17:54:19] superkuh/rizon I've got 300 tabs of the real web open here (and 500+ more suspended in session).

[17:55:49] superkuh/rizon I used to be real big on tor onion services. I ran many .onion sites. But then they decided to unilaterally drop support for tor v2 services and I lost all my brute forced domain names.

[17:56:39] superkuh/rizon Now there's about a 1/3 chance you'd be unable to resolve superkuhbitj6tul.onion even if your tor version supports it (which modern ones don't).

[17:57:14] superkuh/rizon Gentoo, I was brute forcing v3 onions for about a year.

[17:57:27] superkuh/rizon But given the way the tor project acted with v2 domains I no longer see the point.

[17:57:37] superkuh/rizon 8 is about max.

[17:57:52] superkuh/rizon There is only CPU brute algorithms for v3 hashes right now....

[17:58:00] superkuh/rizon Oh, sure, you get the occasionally lucky guess.

[17:59:06] superkuh/rizon Because in removing support for v2 the entire web of interlinked websites, search engines, and wiki articles with links all became useless.

[17:59:30] superkuh/rizon Removing support for v2 onions absolutely wiped all tor community away. And it had to be restarted from scratch on v3.

[17:59:41] superkuh/rizon It still hasn't recovered.

[18:00:27] superkuh/rizon You can't when tor v2 domains won't even resolve with 1/3 of the infrastructure.

[18:00:50] superkuh/rizon Probably a lot more now. I haven't checked recently.

[18:01:07] superkuh/rizon https://www.encryptionin.space/tracking-hsdirs-and-the-version-of-tor-they-run

[18:01:29] superkuh/rizon Oh. He stopped updating the plots. :(
