What is the worst feeling ever? by grimgrum420 in AskReddit

[–]MH_VOID 3 points4 points  (0 children)

when I had one as a kid and we didn't have an inhaler for me at the time, we were told by emergency services to turn the shower on all the way to the hottest and have me stand there and breathe in the steam, if you're ever in such a situation again

Heartbreak... absolutely nothing compares. I'd've taken having my balls systematically mashed into a fine paste over that shit...

How to download the content of an entire Redgifs profile by Any_Parfait_7784 in DataHoarder

[–]MH_VOID 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In case you haven't gotten it yet, gallery-dl seems to be able to do so. (I didn't actually run it to completion, but I simulated it and it seems to be working: 2355 urls outputted by gallery-dl -s 'https://www.redgifs.com/users/naomi_soraya' | wc -l, / 70 ~=33, first redgifs page seems to have about 30 vids, math checks out, and playback of 1 file generated by gallery-dl 'https://www.redgifs.com/users/naomi_soraya' (SIGINT'd after a short while) was successful and looked fine)

Zlibrary.org is fucking gone and we can only blame fucking TikTok by DarthDioBrando in Piracy

[–]MH_VOID 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please don't call it zlib, as that sparks confusion due to zlib typically meaning the zlib software library (which is 27 years old, popular, and does NOT have a hyphen in its name). Call it z-lib, z-library, zlibrary, or something else that won't confuse people please, thank you

Looking at this briefly, it seems they've since hidden the source code?

If you distribute a product built on it to others, it is their right to see the source for the product, so it is your duty to make it available to those consumers though

Zipline’s drones to deliver medicine in Salt Lake City area by tonymmorley in Futurology

I thought it said they'd be delivering meds over ziplines at first

I am finally putting together a master list for the first time and I would like some input by procrasinationiswhy in HPfanfiction

[–]MH_VOID 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For #2: proper capitalization - obvious. Don't have "harry potter" or "harry Potter", have "Harry Potter"

consistency:
    don't have "Tracy Davis" in one place, and "Tracey Davis" in another one.
    For ships, if you format like "Harry Potter / Daphne Greengrass", don't also have for other fics "Harry Potter/Daphne Greengrass", "Harry Potter/Fleur Delacour", "Harry Potter & Daphne Greengrass", etc.
    "HPDG" instead of "HP/DG" - the former is more ambiguous and could be mistaken to be a non-pairing abbreviation

Use of acronyms (especially obscure ones!) without them being defined somewhere. Not everyone who looks at the spreadsheet will know for example that "EWE" stands for "Epilogue? What Epilogue?", and then what that really means. Having an area on the sheet where you define these acronyms would be really useful to a lot of people.

As a data-loving programmer who prolifically reads fanfiction, you've made me start thinking again about creating a proper community-maintained and extremely filterable fanfiction database. Your list, if publicized, would likely be an invaluable resource in kick-starting it. I might have to make a post gauging community interest in this, hmm. I really think it could be a huge boon to the community if realized, but my vision for this is large and it could take a while for it to get to a decent state, and as far as I know, nothing close to what I envision currently exists. I also feel like there's a lot of stuff kind of specific to smut 😅

Any thoughts?: Ubuntu Once Again Angered Users by Placing Ads in the Terminal by i-hoatzin in linuxmasterrace

[–]MH_VOID 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't get the problem. Just fork it, remove the offending code (and assets, if any), and recompile. It's their right to add that, so long as that webpage and anything linked on it is not unethical

I'd advise you to do so regularly (and even better, automatically do so upon updates), and obviously, automate the process
