  • Well the IPv4 spec only allows 4 octets, so having 5 or more is impossible. We could fix it by changing the protocol, but at that point it's more worth it to just migrate to IPv6.

  • As in a regex or ..?

    An ipv4 parser would also be sorta difficult.

    you have to account for the fact that all the octets can be added to decimal: http://2130706433 (valid 127.0.0.1)

    or the fact that octets can be in different formats: http://0x7F.0x0.0x0.0x1 (127.0.0.1)

    or the fact that you can mix octet formats: http://0xC0.0250.0.1 (192.168.0.1)

  • "are we serious" whenever something negative happens

  • Not to advertise, but you could try Photon. It's what Tesseract was forked from wayyy back as me and the tesseract dev's philosophies split.

    It's more opinionated, and features are carefully organized compared to Tesseract where plenty of shortcuts and links are given (which isn't bad at all, just targets different preferences).

  • An American Humane Certified Safety Representative visited the Snow Buddies set on the first day of filming. Fifteen Golden Retriever puppies were on set and fifteen other were being treated by a local veterinarian, and their illnesses were eventually diagnosed as Giardia and Coccidia. On request from the representative the remaining puppies on set received additional veterinary checks. Twenty-five of the puppies were from an American breeder and five were from a Canadian breeder. It was discovered that the puppies were approximately 8 weeks old, which lead to the belief that the puppies were only 6 weeks old when they were brought by the trainer to the movie set. Per the USDA it was at the time illegal to transport puppies under the age of 8 weeks.

    After the removal of all 30 puppies, 28 older Golden Retriever puppies were brought in to continue filming. All of the 28 older puppies were exposed to parvovirus. Five of the puppies died, and up to six others fell ill after exposure to the virus.

    As a result, the film was not permitted to use the "No animals were harmed..." disclaimer and received an "Unacceptable" marking from the American Humane Association.

  • You can access Photon at https://phtn.app/ to use any instance, or selfhost.

    Additionally, some instances I'd recommend that use photon are

    I'm curious why your instance, sh.itjust.works, hosts Tesseract but not Photon. They have diverged so much they cannot be considered similar.

  • It was forked around a year or more back I believe. They are completely different projects now imo. Photon aims for the best UX and speed, while Tesseract aims to be super feature-rich.

  • Redacted

  • I'll need to implement something for multi API support once Lemmy 1.0 releases, and I could probably add basic mbin support there when that happens

  • It means that design choices and features I implement will follow what I believe to be optimal. I still try to consider what the users think, but the overall organization will prioritize my thought. It sounds narcissistic, but other software often follows this pattern.

    It's why Photon will rarely implement random features if I deem it to be something left to another tool, because my opinion is that it should remain simple unless the feature will significantly improve the user experience.
