The "no drawing over others people drawings" rule seems kind of pointless, or is nobody supposed to use the website anymore, now that the whole site is covered with a drawing of cat and a lady in a pond?

Reminds me of the Pixelflut LED display. The hacker camp SHA2017 had one above a bar, 36C3 had one as well. Their traffic peaked at 4 Gbit/s and 30 Gbit/s respectively. https://hackaday.com/2020/08/01/playing-the-pixelflut/

At GPN23 there was also Pixelebbe which was much fun!

Web devs: please, PLEASE, learn the difference between History.pushState() and History.replaceState(). It's the latter you want. Please do not spam my browser history just because I have interacted with your app; it's rude. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History/rep...

I get this issue on YouTube every time (well, other way). On mobile, go to front page, search, hit a search result. Go back and you're on the front page...

If Google can't get it right (or don't care to) I think it's a lost battle.

It would be fun to go the other way, make a giant canvas that you draw on based on the sender's IPv6 address.

Obviously it would be a really really big canvas but you could strip some leading or trailing bits.

(If we give 8x8 pixels per /64 and considering that only 2000/3 is used, that's 2^67 pixels)

In case somebody is a second class Internet citizen like me and has no IPv6 support yet, you can set up a tunnel courtesy of Hurricane Electric if you want to play around: https://tunnelbroker.net/

This is often tricky because not all home routers will let you set up the protocol forwarding you need.

Another option is to use a cloud provider that supports IPv6. For example Google's GCP gives you a completely free VM, the drawback is that enabling IPv6 is a bit of a puzzle. https://cloud.google.com/free/docs/free-cloud-features#compu... (create a dual-stack VPC with a dual-stack subnet in a region, add firewall rules, create dual-stack VM)

Its safe for work until you get to the coordinates where they placed the yaoi porn. Obligatory trans flag and Lain are also present....

In your comment's context, I think "yuri" is more common and fits the next sentence better.

You are right, what i was looking at was yuri, but wouldn't know because i went the other way before seeing the genitals.
