Hope everyone is doing well. Merry Christmas! I used to spend many a Christmas working on Tibia related things alone, it was a nice distraction. Remember to take a step back and make sure you're living life!

Hello all. I've made many servers throughout my life. Those I can remember are Lifeline, Elemental Wars, WildSide, Alternia, and The OX Server (w/ the ox team). All different types and scales. Survival Server is still my favorite though. Then there was the XenoBot scene with OX Scripts and...

Definitely not! Brave is still my daily driver.

Embarrassing I fell for a liberal trash talking point just a year ago, but I feel I should clear things up. Brave is a great browser. The affiliate program was blown out of proportion and commonly used to trash Brave as well as crypto in general. It's the only browser that values your privacy...

Here's the new domain Lua Metatables Tutorial (https://ebens.me/post/lua-metatables-tutorial/)

Very nice, here's a minimal 12.x login server for Node that may be useful as a reference (2FA, error codes, etc) or for benchmarking. https://gist.github.com/Cavitt/3ac7590b995653c5215b9954e3c3c2ce

I've worked a lot with adblockers and easylist maintainers at my job. This is an accident triggered by the url, nothing more. If you change the url it will work, usually adblockers don't do advanced blocking unless you are trying to bypass them. This is definitely a mistake and not intended...

Abandoned, but should be a good reference/start: https://github.com/VAPus/PyOT

What's the difference between extracting tibia assets vs zezenia assets?

Thanks, the code is quite old. I updated the gist with your changes.

Thank you. After diving into it it looks like this paper hasn't been peer reviewed. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.06.13.20129627v1 A simple explanation would be cross contamination of one of the samples. I doubt this is anything unless it gets reproduced reliably. Also notable...

@Night Wolf Incorrect. It's inconclusive but we have a Chinese doctor that defected to tell us otherwise. Currently there is no direct evidence one way or another, but things are leaning towards lab-made. The US shutdown China travel Feb 2nd. China didn't shut down international travel until...

Nothing I said is a conspiracy. Updated my post with links. There are several sources. The flight logs are there. China stopped flights internally from Hubei, but did not stop flights out of China even though they were saying the virus is not transmissible. You have a defector (Dr. Li-Meng Yan)...

More like they stopped internal traffic from Wuhan[1] and welded people inside while saying it wasn't transmissible and allowed it to spread to other countries while they bought up masks and other eq around the world[2]. Their testing is worse than South Korea and the US, plus they are faulty...

@xinn Yes my point was you need to start with data. I was offering advice for future server list owners. Either scrape the internet, your site, or a combination. Scraping is legal and fine, internet or your page. Yes, again, my point was for future server list owners if they want to...
