I have been wanting to seen an aurora ever since I was a child, and tonight I finally saw one!

It was absolutely stunning and the photos don't do it justice. These incredible walls of light hundreds of kilometres tall just whisking around and appearing and disappearing, it was amazing!

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, we are viewing at a pile of pillows and blankets, as a calm voice narrates the scene. Narrator: Wildlife of the nordics is perfectly adapted to the harsh climate. In a cross-section of the blanket pile, we see Blue and Green curled up in their own snug little nests dug into the pillow pile, sleeping comfortably. Narrator: This pile of pillows and blankets, for example, houses two foxes. Drowsy from waking up, the foxes start to make their way towards each other, making a tunnel through the blanket mass. Narrator: Having drifted apart in their sleep, they must now burrow to find each other. Reaching a spot halfway between their own original nesting places, the foxes cuddle up and continue to sleep. Narrator: Early morning cuddles are vital for warmth and mental health.

Hahahahaha xD

This is just perfect, #twitter #x isn’t circling the drain anymore, it’s all the way down.

A screenshot of X (formerly Twitter) showing an ad for a scam. The ad contains a screenshot of supposed Elon Musk tweet linking to the scammers’ own website. Below the ad is a “community note” highlighting that the ad is likely a scam.

What hellish spawn is this!? #x #Twitter

A screenshot of an ad on X (formerly Twitter), containing a screenshot of an earlier tweet from the same address account in response to a post from the then US president Doanld Trump

The following is the text of the tweets as scanned by OCR.

On December 14, 2020, I made an
astrological prediction about the safety of the COVID vaccine and shared this with
honorable POTUS Donald J Trump. By now,
we all know how safe it is. Go science!

The screenshotted tweet reads:
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump • Dec 14, 2020
First Vaccine Administered. Congratulations USA! Congratulations
WORLD!

@vijayiyotish
Congratulations President Trump. However, I wish you had chosen
another moment of time to administer the first vaccine. With the Solar
Eclipse, today is not a time for new beginnings. Need to watch out for
side effects related to tongue, face, head and reproductive system.

@nex OMG! 😍

I want one toooo!

@TransparencyReports nice!

Hey @TransparencyReports, when was the character limit increased to 3621? I totally missed that o.o

Another day, another scam on #X #Twitter :/

Here's how the "Ship of Theseus" page looked in July 2003 when it was first created! Since then, the article has been edited 1792 times. 0% of its original phrases remain.

A Wikipedia page for Ship of Theseus is shown. The article reads "According to an ancient Greek legend, Theseus had a warship that was preserved as a historical relic by the Athenians. Some of its boards rotted and had to be replaced. After many, many years, many such replacements occurred. Eventually, none of the original boards were present. Philosophers could then debate whether it was the same ship that Theseus had used, and if not, when it had ceased to be so.
A modern embellishment
If Theseus paid a nontransferable fee, allowed to be used for only one ship, for the privilege of docking in a particular harbor, would he violate the non-transferability of his license if repeated replacement of boards eventually had the result described above?"

@Hueroc oh nooooo, the dragon fell into a trap and is now being paraded to prison in chains and chastity~

He did get to nom some cookies though :3

Meanwhile over on #X #Twitter…

These are the only kind of ads I’ve been seeing for months now, it’s ridiculous. Every one of them is either a scam or a cryptobullshit scam, and many of them have community notes highlighting it, but they are still not removed!

The Enterprise D gang is in Ten Forward standing around a beautifully decorated banquet table adorned with exotic flowers and lots of food. Seems like a fancy party is happening, I'm guessing some light chitter chatter is in the background, dishes and flatware tinkling and clanking, maybe some nice soft harpy music, but this is a picture so it's tough to say. Ok, back to the story, so Captain Picard is carving a large round turkey. Bev Crusher, Geordi, Data, and a very very tall Klingon, all in uniform, stand and observe. Closed caption reads, "I shall try some of your burned, replicated bird meat."

@Bolt_Railway_Dog Wooo! Congrats! That is so cool! :DDD

Go railway doggo!

@foxes_in_love Well, at least it didn’t involve a pain box :3

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is sitting on his computer, as Green sneaks up on him, laying his chin on the table. Green: One vibe check, please. Blue: Sure. Blue turns back to his computer as Green listens, chin still on the tabletop. Blue: You are loved, you're doing ok, and nobody is mad at you. Green stares ahead of himself while Blue turns to kiss his forehead. Green: Can I also be kissed? Blue: Sure.

I've finally found a way to extract an installed browser's actual user-agent via Python, using only standard libraries!

It uses the http.server library to open the teensiest little server. It serves just a few bytes of HTML and stops after the first request.

The page cannot close itself due to safety limitations built into the browser, so instead I added a redirect tag.

It's for a scraper I'm writing, which needs both the cookies and the user agent used to log in to authenticate requests. I wanted the process of getting those details to be as painless as possible for users.

#programming #Python

$A screenshot showing programming code written in Python. The code defines a function that creates a server with the http.server library. The server saves the headers from the first GET request, then stops itself and the function returns the user agent. For users of screen readers: after this sentence you will hear the code itself, read by OCR. def user_agent_server(host: str, port: int, redirect: str) - str: headers: dict = £3 class _Server(SimpleHTTPRequestHandler): def log_request(self, code-None, size=None): pass def do_GET(self): headers.update({k.lower(): v for k, v in self.headers. items)}) self.send_response (200) self.send _header("Content-type", "text/htm!") self.end_headers() self.wfile.write(f'<html><head><meta http-equiv-"refresh"' content="O; {redirect}"›</head></html>' .encode ("utf-8" )) raise SystemExit http_server = HTTPServer((host, port), _Server) try: http_server.serve_forever() except SystemExit: pass finally: http_server.server_close() return headers.get("user-agent", "")$

@TransparencyReports You guys are amazing ❤️
