So what do you do this evening (?). I watched Deadpool & wolverine. Ace!
Had some festivities to attend to.. from wee hours to late afternoon...
And now chillaxing and contemplating whether to watch the re run of the Christmas Story or something else.

Hmm..
MOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
RYZEN
Yes!!! Merry Christmas
Attempted to put a web scraper onto my vps. The setup is apparently more than 5 clicks and involves additional crap to deal with javascript that SPAs love so much. Gimme back my plain old HTML π
The pluses are there.
But somehow I feel the negatives outweigh the positive at a grander scale
There needs to be responsible and collective action. But definitely not something a government should dictate. They usually seem to lack the collective eill to do good.
I don't blame parents as this allows them to get some personal time and to get some things done. Someone may take thus the wrong way but it is what it is.
Oh yeah, @SilverCreek delivery my giveaway!!!!!!!! Thank you so much @SilverCreek !!!!
Merry Christmas πΒ‘!!!!!!!!!
Plain old html right. Defo not genZ
What scraper? Care to share some insights pls?
Seems interesting to try out for the new year
heeeey! I still use plain old html, that's what they teach me at school
So what's your score so far...
Paid and giveaways in 2024...
Most definitely. I'm at 45 min/day screen time max. That includes playing Roblox
Again, insanity. Sometimes I'm thinking about moving abroad, going off the grid. I love Scandinavia so yeah... Who knows.
Fortunately my kid loves loves being outdoors, messing about with whatever. Stirring up shit with the neighbours
she'd love that space and freedom which you don't have here, or is quite unaffordable here. The dog would probably also love it.
Its giveaway time! Gonna prep the post. BRB!
So I deployed Huginn (honestly a piece of shit and I'm better off making scripts in bash than using that) and hoped the SSRed version of the website in question would contain the datapoints I want. Sadly, it obly contains the wireframe and the actual data is loaded with JS.
I'm planning to run some Playwright to overcome this. Maybe using browserless container, maybe not. Still TBD.
This project is quickly growing in complexity and I'm already stretching myself too thin. Prioritization round inbound βΊοΈ
Wait what? MG squad represents!
That's actually a good catchphrase. I might use it
MOAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR
I would have to check and get back to you at a later stage as my inbox is still filled with order confirmations I haven't actually opened. Giveaways, about 5 I think and they're awesome.
Payed for, definitely close to 40. Got big plans for 2025
LowEndCDN?
I'll send you my PP for royalties.
FORTY plus idlers very nice
Cdn, dns. Nothing resource heavy. I'm a good neighbour.
Idler is the best neighbor π
