Ascii image captchas might be the future 🤣 

Yesterday I read this study about captchas that are hard to crack for ai and it brought up visual illusions.
Now I am wondering about something 🐸: Can ai understand ascii encoded images 🤔? Maybe this could be a cool approach for selfhostable captchas 😮
GM by the way 😁

Mainstream finds out about a great tool I love
The great tool is corrupted by its popularity
I switch to a different tool
The cycle repeats 🥴
10 Years ago:
"You can now prune the bitcoin data from 60 GB to 2 GB 😎🤙"
Nowadays:
"You gotta have atleast 500 GB, or 100 GB if you prune. But keep in mind, pruning might result in performance issues with your lnd node, so better ready up that 500 GB SSD - or 5 TB if you wanna future proof for the coming months 🤡🤞" 🤣


Does there exist anything like for Bitcoin and Lightning, and why is it so hard to find 🙈?
Monero Suite
Build your personal docker-compose.yml file for Monero services.
As soon as Bitcoin becomes mainstream, the public transactions on it, will become a social score.
Good night 🙋♀️🤙

The issue why there are less maintained, well-alive #foss projects with #freespeech values instead of wokeness, is not because of a lack of talent or determination, but because they don't accept government monopoly money and have to solely rely on voluntary donors. If they don't do that, they either will be eaten by statism or by profit-driven investor interests.
Working on FOSS surely feels like traveling over an endless sea, with a sinking ship made out of thin cartboard, just with a single spoon, during a monsoon...
So Codeberg just decided to interpret a stupid, annoying, two-worded spam attack as a far-right attack against their far-left values and Codeberg takes this as a chance to promote a "fight against right-wing forces" (words cited from their blog post https://archive.ph/bvBt0 )
I thought by hosting my projects on Codeberg instead of Github I would support independence and free-speech. But since Codeberg now clearly shows that they are against free-speech, I need to adapt. My projects (especially Nitropage) primary goal is about free-speech and I don't wanna risk Codeberg activists shutting up my repositories, because of right-wing political content published with Nitropage.
Let me know if you know any good, halfway active, non-corporate, unpolitical places to host GIT projects 😅. Maybe
? 🤔)
(I know self-hosting also exists. I'd actually have a Gitea instance, but basically all people are too lazy to register on it and I get absolute-zero interaction on that thing, apart from spam bots 🙄)
