I just don’t understand why Google is behaving like this… they seemed like such good people when they were just tracking your every move on the Internet and off to create detailed and constantly updated profiles of you to exploit for profit. What went wrong at this trillion-dollar surveillance capitalist?

(If you’re wondering why the repository was 176MB to begin with, it’s because I was initially deploying from the /dist folder in the repository. But since then I created a special deployment site for Kitten and now Kittens come from, well, where else but https://kittens.small-web.org.)

If you’re working on Kitten¹ from source, please clone a fresh copy.

I just rewrote history to reduce the repository size (correctly this time, including all references from branches, tags, etc.).

The good news is that – contrary to what the Codeberg interface is currently showing the size to be (176MB) – the repository is only about 5MB now so it should only take a couple of seconds to clone.

PS. I’ve now added this to the Kitten readme but if you are using LocalXpose to expose your Kitten server to the world, start it up like this (replacing with, well, your domain:

loclx tunnel http –reserved-domain –https-to localhost:443 –to localhost:80 –region eu

And then start Kitten up from your project folder with:

kitten –domain=

(And remember this is just for exposing your dev server. You can also deploy to a public VPS, etc., with Kitten.) ⌘ Read more

…Before this, I had set up a tiny VPS server that I installed WireGuard on that I was using to expose my dev server. It was a geeky exercise in setting up WireGuard, NAT/port-forwarding, etc. and it worked but with notable downsides:

• I could only use it from one computer at a time

• It meant my machine was removed from the local network so I couldn’t, for example, also control my Atem Mini Pro for streaming/recording.

LocalXpose doesn’t suffer from either issue. ⌘ Read more

I’ve been looking for an ngrok alternative for a while now that’s (a) affordable (b) easy to use and © works with Kitten¹. Today, after testing a bunch of them again and getting fed up, I found LocalXpose that checks all the boxes.

Also, contrary to what you might be reading, I don’t think Iran’s attack was a failure at all. Clearly they got some very valuable data out of it and, beyond that, I’ve seen estimates that it cost Israel and its allies over a billion dollars to thwart the attack while it cost Iran around 10% of that to stage it. The only way Israel & co. could have lost more money more quickly is if they’d hired Elon Musk as CEO.

So Iran’s mullah regime can go jump off a cliff as far as I’m concerned (and the sooner the better for the sake of the Iranian people) but it’s amazing to read articles in Western media where it’s not even mentioned that Iran retaliated because *Israel bombed their freaking embassy*.

Also, little reminder: Israel – hand in hand with its buddies, the US, UK, Germany… – is busy carrying out the genocide of the Palestinian people.

If the price of admission to your community is genocide denial, the price is too damn high. No, thank you. ⌘ Read more

You think I’m going to apologise for opposing the genocide of the Palestinian people? Fuck you. How dare you? ⌘ Read more

Opposing genocide isn’t antisemitic.

Saying that opposing genocide is antisemitic is antisemitic.

You know what’s inhumane? Genocide. You know who’s committing genocide? Israel.

You have zero moral standing to assess me. Those who commit and are complicit in genocide never do.

So yes, most definitely, goodbye.
