  • Stupid Question:

    How do I find out if a website I use is hosted over cloudflare? The noscipt javascript blocker extension shows in some cases I blocked some cloudflare javascript. For example on the lemmy.world instance it shows a script labeled cloudflareinsights.com that I block. That apparently provides visitor analytics

    According to them on insights:

    Our edge sees all requests made to a website, regardless of whether it’s cached or uncached, the user has adblock, or they turned off JavaScript. This enables us to […]

    On other sites it shows a “confirm you are human” check-box labeled with the cloudflare brand (if I activate javascript for that site) – according to cloudflare wikipedia that service is known as Cloudflare Turnstile. This is how I currently see if cloudflare is involved.

    Another interesting thing I noticed on stackoverflow is email protected which confirms to me stackexchange also uses cloudflare somehow.

    I guess you could detect a Reverse Proxy by cloudflare based on its IP-Adress ~ but I do not really know how to look that up perhaps the following stack overflow answer might help using the tools nslookup and whois… Any other hints on this?

    nslookup www.monero.town whois -h whois.arin.net n <IP-Adress from prev command> | egrep 'Organization'







  • I agree that Frieren villains are unique, to emphasize some other points:

    • Demons are depicted as this alien species that works on a completely different set of rules: Their fake emotions seem to have evolved genetically into them and they are incapable of changing their nature. They are to humans what Wolfs are to Sheep – Alpha Predators.
      • Also demon-kinds social hierarchy being based on Magical power level is interesting completely going against Frieren hiding her power level.

    But in a way Demon mirror Frieren as well, as she herself mentally diverged from humanity over 1000s of years.

    The villains in Frieren are quite similar to Dragonball villains who are non human mos of the time. During combat they find out about their similarity to the heroes.






  • So this is the ending of the egghead arc? In my opinion some questions still need to be answered, like:

    • who gave Luffy food so he could re-enter gear5
    • what did Lucci do to Stussy in egghead
    • how can Lucci survive and leave egghed?
    • what happens to the giant Robot Emeth & Saint Saturn? I hope we get answers to those … Speculative / might not get an answer:
    • is Punk Records self conscious?
    • how will the cloud fabrication device by Vegapunk get saved from this?

  • Why do I prefer the Odysee Video Platform over YouTube? Some technical reasons:

    • native, user friendly RSS support: you can subscribe to channels using an RSS Button on their channel home page, you get a link like this that you can paste in your RSS reader. RSS feed items contain a playable Video on my feed reader, which means I do not need to visit the odysee.com website to watch my subscriptions, and I do not even need an account.
      • upload dates, and watchable Video are very well displayed in my RSS feed reader compared to YouTube feed items, which are a mess of header image and description
      • here is a tutorial how to get rss feeds from Odysee, yt, etc.
    • native, user friendly support for downloading video with a download button under the video (an elipsis button)
    • it is not the youtube monopoly
    • until now: no ads. Peer-tube is also a cool alternative… Some popular youtubers like Distrotube and others tech-youtubers have already an Odysee account.
