software tinkerer and aspiring rationalist. transhumanist and alterhuman

I try to be very careful about CWing things. sometimes I make mistakes but I want to make my posts as safe to read as possible

I sometimes post NSFW/kinky/lewd things behind CWs. this should go without saying but if you're a minor please do not interact with anything lewd/NSFW that I post

I have very limited energy and am very shy so it might take me a long time to reply to messages sometimes, or I might not be able to reply at all. this is kind of an "output only" account for the most part, but I'm hopeful that I can change that over time

I sometimes use curly braces to {clearly show where a grammatical phrase begins and ends}, like that. you can think of them like parenthesis in code or math, except they operate on grammar instead

looking through some old NeXT promotional materials to find something cool i can hang up

"In all honesty, we couldn't even guess where you might make a comparable purchase. Fortunately, we can tell you precisely where to make this one. Simply call us at 1-800-848-NeXT."

this sounds like some shit cave johnson would say

@konstruct oh no you can’t?

hmm I just tried to connect to it through a VPN and got the same problem that you’re having. I’m so confused but I’m going to try rebooting the VPS

it looks like I can connect through my VPS now, as well as with my normal IP. can you tell me if you can connect now?

GAGS: my webapp for searching lewd audio subreddits
Show content

alright I think I’m comfortable saying that GAGS is ready to be used! you can find it here:

https://gags-search.xyz/

GAGS (#GWA Advanced Gender Search) is a tool for searching #EroticAudio / #AudioPorn subreddits like #GoneWildAudio and #EroticHypnosis. unlike GWASI, GAGS lets you search for exactly which listener genders and speaker genders you want. for example you could search for only files by trans men or genderqueer people, and exclude all files for men. I hope this will be especially helpful for beings with complicated sexualities and/or genders who can’t just search for something simple like [F4M]

so if you’re interested in that, please give it a try! keep in mind that it might be a little bit slow because I’m using a cheap VPS, and the reddit API is also very slow

please let me know if:

  • you use a screen-reader and run into problems screen-reading GAGS
  • you’re confused about how to use GAGS (I want to make the UI as easy-to-understand as I can)
  • you get an error page when trying to use it, or you can’t connect to it
  • it takes more than 30 seconds to load a page (this is way too long)
  • you find a security vulnerability
  • most importantly, if you like GAGS or it helped you find something good. I would love to know that I was able to help!

I have very limited energy, but if there’s enough interest and I have the energy to spare then I do want to keep improving #GAGSProject, so feedback is appreciated 💙

also, if GAGS was helpful then please consider boosting this post so that more beings can try it. I don’t want to get deluged with traffic or anything but I’d like to help as many beings as possible find hot audios to listen to that are tailored to their gender and orientation

edit: I updated the link from the old one ( https://gags-search.duckdns.org/search_form ) because the old one was causing DNS issues. so if you weren’t able to connect before, maybe try the new URL and see if it works 💙

it doesn't take any resources away from "real disabled people" to use tools made for them before you're ready to call yourself disabled personally

Cruel tbh that the text editor, the program for untangling your spaghetti, lives in the same machine as the web browser for flopping more spaghetti into your skullbowl

Anybody else do this

Y'know when you're doing this big multi-step DIY project that involves doing many things and getting parts and tools and materials and you're holding all this stuff in your head and you notice how much of a big noisy scrungly mess it is up there, all the thoughts and worries and tasks overlapping each other like spaghetti all going in different directions, and you grumble "This is ridiculous, a guy can't get anything done with all that yammering going on," so you start up the computer and the text editor and write out what's going on up there, not because you don't know what's going on but just because thoughts go wibblywoobly like gummy worms and writing goes left to right in a straight line and to turn your oh-I-need-to-do-this-and-that thinkings into a ah-I-need-to-do-this-THEN-that shaped Plan you need to untangle the spaghetti and make it go in the long straight writing-shaped hole

Do you ever think of that like brushing your brain

Like oh no my brain's all tangled I've gotta spend a few minutes giving it a nice brush and make it purr

holy shit CrowdSec has the greatest documentation for anything I’ve ever seen ever. it’s also like a million times better than fail2ban in every way. I don’t know if y’all have ever tried to edit the configs for fail2ban but it is basically an impossible task. imagine 12 massive regexes split across 30 INI files

anyway fail2ban wasn’t blocking the vulnerability scanners because its config was using a bunch of brittle regexes that weren’t working and I wasn’t able to fix that but now I’m using CrowdSec and I’m so glad I am omg

@ghostlyash I did this a little bit with my new therapist in my first session last week and I genuinely think it was the most helpful part of the session? like literally just experiencing not being judged/hated/misunderstood by someone who I didn’t meet online was huge for me

also! #GAGSProject now has a favicon and I think it turned out so good!

holy crap my #GAGSProject VPS has barely been up for two days and I’ve never publicly shared the address and yet it’s been hit by so many different vulnerability scanners

I just set up fail2ban which will hopefully get them to leave me alone

also I’m almost ready to open up GAGS for everyone to use! I just want to have some of my friends check it for security issues first
