Stylized portrait of Ciri from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. She stands facing the viewer with a sword on her back and her right arm raised as she conjures magical fire. Embers float around her.

I was trying to figure out why a (external, now unmaintained) clang plugin crashes with no function of that specific plugin to be found on the stack trace near the crash.

I strongly suspected that this was actually a clang bug related to visiting template instaniations, so I wanted t[...]

Agents of Mayhem doesn't deserve that bad of a rating imo.

Reportedly the main problem of this game during development has been lots and lots of miscommunication between the development studio (Volition) and their publisher (Deep Silver). This resulted in the game being rushed to pub[...]

It's my internet birthday and I want to send asks!

I can send asks to any users on WAFRN software, regardless of specific server. My off-WAFRN mutuals can also request topics of conversation.

BOOST for an ask about anything (usually based off profile/recent posts).

I like my homelab staying independent for now, so I can still use it if Clownflare goes down (again). I am not paying per byte for my upload, but per month. So as long as I stay within fair-usage limits and don't max it out, everything is fine. I am not worried about cost, but about c[...]

iocaine can do all of the above because it is programmable. The developer's nam-shub-of-enki configuration features a small challenge that can be made JS-less called Cookie Monster. In theory, you can implement any challenge -- JS or not -- using iocaine 3.x and later. This includes i[...]

How would one go about configuring this? And can I make it as user-friendly and zero-interaction as Anubis is?

I've checked out what I believe to be the manual of nam-shub-of-enki, but I couldn't find any example for this use case.

I would love to use Iocaine instead of Anubis if I [...]

Yeah, but having the possibility to be let through by solving a challenge is much better imo.

I remember how utterly confused I was when I first stumbled into iocane with an outdated browser and just got gibberish (with no explanation about what happened whatsoever).

I am happy to announce that the @icepi-zero-bot.at.wafrn.jcm.re has Veryl support (it actually had it since a couple of days, but now I finally have a tiny bit of time to announce it)!

It is incredibly cute and goofy, which I absolutely love!
It's one of the animals I would love to pat, hug, and cuddle, but I probably won't ever be able to actually do it.

That is a lot less than I expected, given how hard Wafrn makes it to post without ALT text.

And please also provide instructions on how to compile/download your compiler directly instead of *only* offering a up tool.

Especially if you don't support my architecture and I therefore cannot use your tool ;)
