>4chan is killing itself with shit moderation and captchas>reddit is discussing fucking iris scans for accountsI can't believe this is how the internet died. everything got consolidated into 3 websites that are now jewed to the max.
>>107724079the problem is the whole culture of junk content in which we live and refer to it
>>107724079I approve of the new captchas, there's literally browns on reddit who are complaining they can't post because they can't figure out the captcha.
>>107724200lmao its an iq test
New captchas are meant to filter people like (You)
>>107724079>when can has betterwithin 4 years. No one appreciates the dead internet, AI makes a good gimmick but after awhile its robotic nature is exposed and it feels vapid and empty. Lots of inertia has been generated from network effects, psychological tricks and apathy. The Pyrrhic victory is that big tech only intends to further enshittify, jack up their monopoly rates and find new ways of hijacking the amgdala to imbibe you with their cultural norms and export empire.fortunately projects like hashchan provide choose your own jannies and sidesteps the need for cloudflare+captchas entirely. there is no company, no platform, no profit motive. Just the understanding that critical mass moloch traps the botswarms into supporting the tools of digital liberation
>>107724079>reddit is discussing fucking iris scans for accountsah forgot to mention, also its portable identity (if any) you can choose how much you want to reveal. if you want to tripfag with an iris scan, go for it. if not fund a fresh address through a chip mixer
>>107724200It’s shit
it took me a few days to realize there were separate instructions for the dice. quality of the whole site suffered for it
blame the hackers that can wipe any website off the internet with xxx TBps flood unless you're on cloudflare, which is taking sides now in what it will platformthere also are way fewer people that can do silent moderation for free as well without going power-crazyI'm putting some faith in maybe AI-powered moderation that might enable new websites to defend against spam, but it still requires founders to be tech-savvy and driven and zoomers are all tech-illiterate, so we might still be in the dead end
>>107725370if one just serves a web ui off localhost behind a dynamic ip. and they use an ethereum node (which has its own built in anti ddos measures) i struggle to find how the hackers could ddos the system. do you see an entrypoint?
>>107724079Reddit basically killed its free api
>>107725387I'm not sure what you're specifically talking about, but you don't seem to have much insight, just as I dois it about the gay "gas" etherium shit? I have no idea how "gas" factors into serving HTTP requests on normal websiteswhat I see is that ANYTHING can be blown out of the water if anyone is pissed off about you for any reason
>>107725472say a bunch of anons paid a little bit to stick their posts inside an ethereum node. Their posts then get replicated around the planet.a lurker than turns on their etherum node, syncs it , and does a little html/css/js to grab those posts and make them display nice.now many anons start doing this. If you had to blow that system out of the water, what would you attempt?
>>107724936SAAAR
>>107724079>And capchasI see the new capcha as a win THOUGH
>>107725526this is a losing proposition because it restricts the audience to crypto autistsyou can definitely do that and have another gay niche website for nerds, but it does nothing about "internet died" unless SOMEHOW elderly boomers would be incentivized to do all the shitty manual setup you'd need to do
its insane that every xitter post has like hundreds of jeets in the replies
>>107724079Pic related is the real life equivalent of the new captchas. You can solve this shit in under two seconds. Why even have a captcha in the first place?
>>107725573thats not so bad. I'd argue dialup was more of a barrier in the early internet days. If the choice is between a retina scan, a $300 a year sub, or being spammed with content that looks genuine but is ultimately meaningless, perhaps more would switch over.if you needed pic related, could saruman or the steward of gondor prevent rohan from coming to aid?
>>107724079I can tell 4chan devs are having fun with these new captchas. it's kinda based in a way, screwing around with retards by slightly changing up the "80 IQ gates" every couple weeks
>>107725621this again requires some sort of grassroots opposition to wonderful internet ID-driven future and I don't see it now. If locking down porn didn't bring it, nothing I see willI'd honestly rather invest in some form of blockchain-based internet ID setups that'd be open and acceptable throughout the world while integrating privacy in its design
>>107724607
>>107725662oh this is pure tech, no coin, no fee, no foundation, no founders, no donations, no funding, no investment. too many scams in the space, too many making compromises on design and becoming dependent on the shortcuts, too many co-opting the movement to make some fiat.You will find this the most valuable project in crypto however. as we've established, it defeats cloudflare. every major military, ngo, corporation, public-private partnership writes blank checks for full spectrum dominance, containment control, social engineering, narrative inculcation. critical mass on this technology stack moloch traps all of them into trying to outspend each other, giving tx fees to any chain its on, pumping the prices for anyone holding. 10-100s of billions annual stands to be captured if hashchan, hasheddit, hashx, and perhaps even hashtube (with livepeer) reach criticality.as you say, if the grassroots comes- and big tech becomes a worse deal every day
>>107724079it's telling us, that you have no friend and no life. spending everyday on 4chan is something make you mentally unstable.
>>107724079I'm literally brown and I never had any issues ever since the new captcha system was introduced. I've seen multiple different anons say it's "too hard" or even claim they prefer the old "select all cars squares" one. I refuse to accept they were being serious about it, like who the hell gets filtered by simple shapes?
>>107725760>conspiraceeI've opened that paper and they're literally trying to create a math model of social networksyes, there's one flip from air force that is "Director of the AFRL Mathematical Modeling and Optimization Institute">as you say, if the grassroots comes- and big tech becomes a worse deal every dayif if ifyou can go to /biz/ to see all the ifs that schizos put their money on and currently are losing that money, aside from current silver spike that they will ride alllll the way back down because you can't "end the fed" otherwiseschizos will never create anything useful for real world peopleyou need driven, but rooted in reality people like moot or null to create anything popular and they are dime a dozen
>>107725865*not dime a dozen
>>107725392this is such misinformation, all they did was make commercial use it of not allowed. they did not add any actual restrictions, I can still pull every single comment and thread sequentially in real time as it's submitted 24/7. I get all the good shit.
>>107725865this paper forms part of the basis in response to the arab spring, the algorithm behind speech =/= reach . when you combine it with in-q-tels, the cia venture capital arm, investments in say d-wave, who worked on max-cutting social graphs and cambridge analytica the strategy becomes apparent. Single out the smallest sub population, modify their information streams, change who they are talking to, so they can balance the red ants and black ants in a game of perpetual battle. algorithmic divide and conquor, as they pimp out your digital likeness to who they see fitIts a 5 year cold march for hashchan, but no short cuts, but every other part of the web will collapse around it.hashchan gets /biz/ banned pretty quick so far for some reasonbut here is more math if interested
>>107725900They have ended self-service api access, and essentially no one is approved for new ones.
