People are currently dunking on this post that complains about Mastodon link previews DDoSing their servers - and they deserve every bit of it.
Pulling up this site in a browser with no privacy/sanity plugins installed, it made a total of 3740 requests within 4 minutes, which amounted to 267.22 MB transferred. It has ads left, right, bottom and center, and it has one of those annoying autoplaying videos, which ALSO has a video ad in front of it. The website would not scroll even close to fluently, and I'm doing this on a 24-core M2 Ultra Mac Studio with 128 GB RAM. I had to use the `debugger` command in the JS console in order to make the network panel in dev tools stop lagging.
In addition, they quote someone complaining about 114.7 MB being requested from their server over the span of 5 minutes. Not only is that less than half as much as you make a single user download if they don't actively cut into your bloatware crap, it also amounts to a whopping 3.06 Mbit/s that you're complaining about. THREE MEGABITS PER SECOND!
Your website is an insult to the internet.
koukam, ze se po bazarech vsude vyrojily tolik oblibene Digitakty, za 16k, dokonce za 14
tak jsem si rikal, ze se asi ukazala nejaka neopravitelna chyba a lidi se toho rychle zbavujou, nez to vyjde do verejne znamosti
a ona proste vysla nova verze 😅

Či už si utečenec z Twitteru (ako ja), oddaný Mastodonec, social media experimentátor, alebo si sem iba zablúdil - daj o sebe vedieť!
Boost poteší.

Česko je pokud vím unikátní v tom, že každý občan má přístup do lesa — i když je ten les privátně vlastněný. Třeba v USA to tak není, a můžu vám říct, že jsem to tam vnímal jako dost důležitý rozdíl.
Teď se nějaká lobby snaží změnit zákon tak, aby si mohli vlastníci lesů přístup veřejnosti zakázat.
Podepsal jsem proti tomu petici zde: https://lesyprovsechny.cz/
We already have 1,000 would-be Mozarts who instead of learning music and honing their skills are doing shit jobs for shit wages. They're spending their time just surviving instead of blessing the rest of us with music we'd love.
What these would-be Mozarts need is basic income.

It's still rough – but I'm confident it could already be fun to use! So I'm looking for people to try out and test my #miditracker.
You'll need python 3.9.10 and a midiDevice you want to control (can be virtual or hardware via usb). If you want to try it on windows – great – but I didn't do that yet. Feel free to reach out to me here or in the github issues if something goes south.

“Last year, I had a life-changing experience at 90 years old. I went to space, after decades of playing an iconic science-fiction character who was exploring the universe. I thought I would experience a deep connection with the immensity around us, a deep call for endless exploration.
"I was absolutely wrong. The strongest feeling, that dominated everything else by far, was the deepest grief that I had ever experienced.
"I understood, in the clearest possible way, that we were living on a tiny oasis of life, surrounded by an immensity of death. I didn’t see infinite possibilities of worlds to explore, adventures to have, or living creatures to connect with. I saw the deepest darkness I could have ever imagined, contrasting so starkly with the welcoming warmth of our nurturing home planet.
"This was an immensely powerful awakening for me. It filled me with sadness. I realized that we had spent decades, if not centuries, being obsessed with looking away, with looking outside. I did my share in popularizing the idea that space was the final frontier. But I had to get to space to understand that Earth is and will stay our only home. And that we have been ravaging it, relentlessly, making it uninhabitable."
