I was curious as to the security context this runs in: curl -i 'https://porcini.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:j22nebhg6aek3kt2mex5ng7e&cid=bafkreic5fmelmhqoqxfjz2siw5ey43ixwlzg5gvv2pkkz7o25ikepv4zeq' Here are the headers I got back: x-powered-by: Express access-control-allow-origin: * cache-control: private vary: Authorization, Accept-Encoding ratelimit-limit: 3000 ratelimit-rema…

Blocking/allowlisting all JavaScript is the only way [1] to have a CSP fully contain an app (no exfiltration) [2] and with prefetch that might not be enough. The author is correct at the end to suggest using WebAssembly. (Also, it still has the issue of clicking links, which can be limited to certain domains or even data: by wrapping the untrusted code in an iframe and using child-src on the parent of the iframe) 1:…

I didn't realize you could use CSP for preventing exhilaration now! How did they close the WebRTC loopholes?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Bluesky’s attitude seems logical and their reasoning aligns with my thoughts exactly. If techdirt’s article is to be believed, Dorsey’s departure has to do with going from an extreme to an extreme—from a traditional social monolith to a pure protocol—whereas Bluesky chose to pursue not only the protocol, but also “the app” as the face of that protocol for the ordinary user, and let’s face it: the ordinary user does n…

What's your issue with invite-only periods? Is there a better way to throttle signups while you scale a system early on?

The invite-only system established the main Bluesky instance as a big circlejerk.

It worked with Orkut back in the day where the internet was new and untainted by culture wars.

Bluesky is lefty twitter now and I want no business with that platform.

I think the AT protocol is versatile in that users can acces each others data once authenticated without any centralized service (granted the aggregators and some other things may still be centralized).

So the recent push to artists to move there to protect their rights against AI training is not only false but a trap since anyone can point their cannons to train data on Bluesky.

Whenever I hear about Bluesky I think about Jack Dorsey quitting their board and asked people to stay on Twittet/X. https://amp.theguardian.com/technology/article/2024/may/07/j...

I mean, honestly, losing Dorsey was probably a big part of its success.

I'm very hopeful for the possibility of using bluesky for blob data. A friend and I had considered looking into storing DOOM WADs on bluesky so that "map packs" could be shared in the same way posts are. Follow an account, a list, or a starter pack, and you could theoretically modify GZDoom or some other client to know how to search and view any WADs posted by those accounts. Like how the Steam Workshop works, except…

So, basically using Bluesky as an RSS feed for arbitrary data? Kind of?
