@richjohnston.bsky.social - some economic news for you
Detroit area folks, a great old local comic shop, Green Brain Comics, is facing some financial hardship. So if you need any comic gifts for the holidays, consider ordering from them. Run by great people and it’s one of the best shops on the area. stores.comichub.com/green_brain_...

Got to say that Twitter's rebrand to X breaks every piece of marketing logic you can think of..
And then you see how Musk and co created the new logo....
It's a unicode X which can't be trademarked so could be used by everyone for anything...

Be careful who you complain about because their replacement could easily be way, way worse.

bsky drama is reminding me of when I helped moderate a forum, pushed it to ban racist stuff that started popping up, we got a ton of hate both from racists and people complaining we didn't go further now or do it sooner, I left after lack of support and harassment, and then an alt-righter took over.
> One of the things they teach you in lifeguard / surf camp is that people who are drowning will attempt to climb on top of their rescuers, killing both. Simply try to do something about a problem, and many people will think you are responsible for the problem’s existence.

So it seems the handler code is a pile of tulip and is an explicit string comparison check.
n****** is blocked but n******1 passes the handler name "checks".
Someone needs to put some actual effort into fixing the reservedSubdomains function in the reserved.ts file to support regex checks
