GitHub has decided to send an advertising email for CoPilot to every single email address associated with my GitHub account, not just the primary email. They do this with nothing else. I also didn't sign up for marketing emails. Jesus fuck, GitHub.

DISCORD PSA:

So there's a neat new spam technique that Discord stupidly enabled by failing to do any risk analysis on new features. Discord has a feature called "apps" (which are different than bots, I guess) that a user can use on any server (by default; there's a permission setting for it but the admins have to manually turn it off), which let the user invoke them with limited permissions anywhere with a / command.

Yesterday someone joined the mGBA discord, used it to post cryptocurrency spam with a bot I couldn't remove, then deleted the original message so I couldn't even see who invoked them, much less ban them. Supposedly you can check message interactions to find out who posted them, but a mod deleted all of them last time after that came to light and before I was able to verify.

Great ideas all around from the company that lets you pay for effects that make bios unreadable for several seconds, started a game store no one asked for before shutting it down and rendering all the purchases unavailable less than a year later, and forcing everyone to rename their accounts, forcing a massive landgrab for those who didn't want to be impersonated.

Discord is shit, by the way.

@foone I like how you called Ansem "Ansem Seeker of Darkness", which is technically correct, except the character of Ansem the Wise, the other Ansem, hadn't been properly introduced yet, only appearing as DiZ in this game.

@rk @foone oh god the situation with bitshifting on ARM is so much more complicated than that
