  ugh, Dolphin Emulator's blog switched to AVIFs for their Status Reports :/

  WHY
• 00:22
  tomman
  only the videos are using something more sane

  Does "CVE-2024-12224 idna: idna accepts Punycode labels that do not produce any non-ASCII when decoded" affects SeaMonkey? It seems idna crate is compiled in the current code...

  rust-url is not used for normal url parsing. Only in some internal MozUrl stuff. If there is a problem I very much doubt it has real world implications.

  gitlab wip pushed
• 16:27
  therube
  how about a wip for mozillazine, forums.mozillazine.org/index.php ;-).
• 16:27
  therube
  Protected by Anubis from Techaro. Made with ❤️ in 🇨🇦.
• 16:27
  therube
  only SeaMonkey can't get past it? (Seems to me, not too long ago, SM did work with anubis ?)
• 16:31
  tomman
  Anubis still works fine here
• 16:31
  tomman
  the progress bar is the only broken widget
• 16:32
  tomman
  (there should be one, it renders fine on Firefox)
• 16:32
  tomman
  also, Anubis is death on cellphones

  ...OK, that one is new

• 16:32
  tomman
  BOO!
• 16:35
  tomman
  So that effectively renders Mozillazine unusable on vintage browsers :/
• 16:35
  tomman
  also, first time I see a new sprite for that wolfgirl, and that one IS quite cringe (dat eyes!)
• 16:36
  tomman
  therube: FWIW it works fine on the nightlies, haven't tested the release/betas
• 16:37
  therube
  ah, it does work with https://, thanks.
• 16:38
  tomman
  So HTTPS is mandatory for Anubis, check.
• 16:58
  njsg
  oh the heck
• 16:59
  njsg
  that's just outright silly yes
• 16:59
  njsg
  anubis requires HTTPS and is deployed on HTTP!?
• 17:00
  tomman
  no, Mozillazine is still on HTTP and HTTPS
• 17:00
  tomman
  but it seems Anubis assumes "HTTP is a security threat, lolno"
• 17:06
  njsg
  At this point, I'd seriously consider trying to come up with a workaround for all of anubis. It's becoming a nuisance.
• 17:06
  njsg
  At least I hope it working with SeaMonkey isn't an accident
• 17:06
  njsg
  that said, just like CloudFlare, it forces a requirement on JS for sites that don't require it.
• 17:08
  tomman
  njsg: While I can't find the HN thread, Xe Iaso (Anubis dev) is on record saying that compat with "oooold" browsers is no accident
• 17:10
  njsg
  Dunno about HN but I think somebody associated with Anubis popped up in some fediverse thread.
• 17:11
  njsg
  Alas, can't currently go look for it easily, the web client now requires dynamic imports...
• 17:24
  tomman
  Of course the #1 complaint I see against Anubis is "anime drawings are cringe/not professional"
• 17:24
  tomman
  (you have to license the program if you want to kill the wolfgirl, which IMO is lame)
