This is classic whataboutism. Tethered caps and energy security aren't competing for the same budget or the same people. Nobody delayed a gas pipeline to write a cap regulation. You can think the caps are annoying (they are) and still see that they have nothing to do with a closed strait.

My post was clearly not against any platform rules. Yet it was flagged as such.

From an XML feed when it was Twitter to cease and desist notices, when the „free speech absolutist“ takes over.

Oh, the irony. And so many people still look up to this snake oil salesman

Global warming is also killing wildlife. And by many magnitudes more than drilling some holes for offshore wind parks.

A shared 256x256 ASCII grid. Pick a glyph, place it, it stays. Everyone's on the same canvas.

You get 32 tokens as a guest, one back every 5 min. So you can't draw much on your own - the thing only fills if people show up. That's the point, hence the name (monophobie = fear of being alone).

Always wanted my site to have a wall where people could leave me messages, and I've always loved r/place. So I started wondering what it'd take to build my own version. This is it.

Stack: TanStack Start + TanStack Virtual, had to virtualize the grid or it chokes on mobile. Postgres holds the canvas, Redis the token buckets, BullMQ for [what it actually does]. Better-Auth with optional passkeys, but guests draw right away, no signup.

Cheers, Julian

Yeah, 4 mins is currently the avg. build time for our TanStack app dockerized. The turbo part takes 30 sec with Vite 7

And yet it pays my bills for almost two decades.

I guess it’s like

1) Download Ghibli film material from an arrrr site. Extract frames using ffmpeg. Pay someone $1 per week in Nigeria to add metadata for each (or some) frame(s).

2) ???

3) Profit
