<2022-10-23T17:08:42.000Z> OfInterist: Is there a reference I missed? Covered feet, confederate flag, dorito bag and dust.
<2022-10-23T19:26:04.000Z> graf: my version of sothis has heterochromia, left eye is always red and the right is always green 
<2022-10-23T19:27:36.000Z> OfInterist: i noticed that in your current pfp but felt the colors were more balanced and the eyes stood out if they were both pink since the hair is green. the one green eye, bc of the hair, would make throw off the balance
<2022-10-23T19:33:34.000Z> graf: that's up to you then. that's the only thing I can think of 
<2022-10-23T19:33:47.000Z> OfInterist: ok, thank you for the feedback
<2022-10-23T20:34:08.000Z> OfInterist: i was going to share this, but youre welcomed to do so if you like. if youre curious youre lighting jims cigarette in the overall piece

<2022-10-27T07:03:55.000Z> OfInterist: hey, your site and your decisions, i understand why you banned him even tho i wasnt in or reading the thread. if it matters from richards reply it doesnt seem like he meant to break the dox tos purposefully. i maybe mistaken as i wasnt in the thread.
<2022-10-27T07:04:09.000Z> OfInterist attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/c1e88981b6018d0bf42aecfef128624efb564ee37964028fa09f48879bbc5839.png
<2022-10-27T07:05:04.000Z> graf: I have zero interest in going to bat for someone who needs to namedrop people I'm a thread. she has been warned and the next time she participates in or eggs on this behavior she will be removed. 
<2022-10-27T07:05:32.000Z> OfInterist: yeah i didnt even notice her until thots brought up this whole situation to me.
<2022-10-27T07:05:48.000Z> graf: our rules explicitly state "whether it is publically available or not" a zero tolerance stance means zero. sorry 
<2022-10-27T07:05:59.000Z> OfInterist: all good. thanks for the feedback.
<2022-10-29T00:21:53.000Z> OfInterist: Hey, i think i remember you posting that one could anonymously donate via a prepaid gift card ack I 
<2022-10-29T00:22:28.000Z> OfInterist: Scratch the "ack I"
<2022-10-29T00:22:54.000Z> OfInterist: Like the ones you can purchase as a gas station or cvs. Am I remembering correctly?
<2022-10-29T00:23:14.000Z> graf: yeah you should be able to use them at give.poast.org
<2022-10-29T00:24:00.000Z> OfInterist: Thanks
<2022-10-30T01:41:28.000Z> OfInterist: thanks for the heads up. everyone i showed this to didnt notice either lol. question - if i Edit the post I can change the uploaded photo, right? and that causes everyone who previously liked it to receive a notif i changed it?
<2022-10-30T01:41:45.000Z> graf: yes you can and yes it should
<2022-10-30T01:41:53.000Z> OfInterist: ok, thank you.
<2022-11-03T20:48:09.000Z> OfInterist: hey, fyi, someone is discussing this twitter thread about you right now. posted 20-30 minutes ago. figured you want to be made aware if you werent already
<2022-11-03T20:48:15.000Z> OfInterist: twitter.com/EsoShaggy/status/1588264929819168768
<2022-11-03T20:49:05.000Z> graf: lol ok
<2022-11-03T20:49:06.000Z> graf: thank you
<2022-11-03T20:49:24.000Z> graf: also milker.cafe is not anywhere close to poast hardware, not even in the same country, nor continent even
<2022-11-05T02:27:04.000Z> OfInterist: hey, i just sent $20 through the fiat option. i dont need the Donor badge, but could i please get one of the custom ones that reads: Poster Poaster
<2022-11-05T03:16:00.000Z> graf: you got it boss, there's a bug relating to capitalization so when I fix it I will make the second P a capital, too!
<2022-11-05T03:20:20.000Z> OfInterist: Thank you sir
<2022-11-10T01:23:45.000Z> OfInterist: do you know if it is something on poasts end or chudbuds that causes some posts not to be visible across instances? 
<2022-11-10T01:23:50.000Z> OfInterist attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/de4586e1938eae7011f1ec0ca3b0a9bff6fa5f27c5ec62eac454b0aab5237a34.png
<2022-11-10T01:23:59.000Z> graf: defederated users/instances
<2022-11-10T01:24:17.000Z> graf: in our case if you see that someone has either broken the no dox rule or something particularly bad 
<2022-11-10T01:24:44.000Z> OfInterist: but thats Jim's chudbud posts I cant see from poast in his thread. as you can see, i can see the bottom one just not the previous ones
<2022-11-10T01:27:12.000Z> graf: yeah thats weird, normally you can force federation if you go to instance.tld/ostatus_subscribe?acct=https://poa.st/ostatus_subscribe?acct=https://chudbuds.lol/notice/APRckufPflWs1Yf0eO (so poa.st/ostatus_subscribe?acct=https://poa.st/ostatus_subscribe?acct=https://chudbuds.lol/notice/APRckufPflWs1Yf0eO) but it says there's an error fetching the user
<2022-11-10T01:27:17.000Z> graf: I'll look further into it, thanks
<2022-11-10T01:28:04.000Z> OfInterist: np. this wasnt the first time i couldnt see one of jims posts from chud on poast. figured id bring it up.
<2022-11-10T01:28:07.000Z> OfInterist: thanks
<2022-11-10T01:36:17.000Z> graf: I think in this case something happened between the servers while this was federating, perhaps a network hiccup because it doesn't error out for me on poast telling me the status is likely already inserted, but probably malformed
<2022-11-10T01:36:29.000Z> graf: I can fetch it on other peoples instances so it's us, if it happens again can you point me to the thread?
<2022-11-10T01:36:42.000Z> OfInterist: sure, will do. thanks for checking.
<2022-11-11T06:39:42.000Z> OfInterist: since you asked here is another example of posts by Jim from chudbuds that dont show up for me on poast
<2022-11-11T06:39:45.000Z> OfInterist attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/a991aaee4eb5afe7ba0193d9d426f2afdb27994ce368d3696e710391e3075fec.png
<2022-11-11T06:41:34.000Z> graf: that's weird. okay thanks I'll check it in the am
<2022-11-20T23:44:42.000Z> graf: I tried deleting his account and reactivating it and it's still not fixing anything so I dont know what to tell you. there's zero indication, warning or anything on our end 
<2022-11-20T23:46:09.000Z> OfInterist: thats odd. yeah, the problem persist. i quote reposted his chudbuds post from earlier from my chudbuds account then reposted from my poast and jims original isnt visible here. odd.
<2022-11-20T23:47:04.000Z> graf: poa.st/objects/1cc6b57f-2b2c-4f1b-a7cc-3f42f678c270
<2022-11-20T23:48:30.000Z> OfInterist: in case they ask, jims chudbud posts usually become visible somewhere between 12-24 hours after they were originally posted.
<2022-11-20T23:49:51.000Z> OfInterist: thanks for checking in on it.
<2022-11-28T19:52:34.000Z> graf: your jim issue should be resolved

<2022-11-28T19:52:55.000Z> OfInterist: i noticed i got a chudbuds alert from him earlier.
<2022-11-28T19:53:00.000Z> OfInterist: thank you for letting me know and looking into this
<2022-11-28T19:53:11.000Z> graf: its not fixed yet but its got a bandaid for now
<2022-11-28T19:53:15.000Z> graf: at least i know what it is now
<2022-11-30T22:11:27.000Z> OfInterist: Hey, technical understanding question for you: poast runs off soapbox and is on the fedi. Mastodon networks run off mastodon and are also on the fedi. Poast doesn't run anything mastodon, correct?
<2022-11-30T22:48:56.000Z> graf: no the way it works is poasts backend (rebased, based on pleroma) and mastodon run on top of a protocol specification called ActivityPub. anything that is built on the ActivityPub protocol can interact with us (like poast.tv -- you can see this here poa.st/@graf@poast.tv for example). peertube runs on ActivityPub standard, so does blog software like WriteFreely
<2022-11-30T22:49:24.000Z> graf: here's a small list :)awesomeopensource.com/projects/activitypub
<2022-11-30T22:50:22.000Z> OfInterist: Lol ok, I'll have some reading this evening. Thank you for the info.
<2022-11-30T22:50:47.000Z> graf: sure -- in theory ALL of these applications can talk with us if they federate over the ActivityPub protocol
<2022-11-30T22:51:03.000Z> graf: (tumblr is adding ActivityPub support soon, for example)
<2022-11-30T23:11:39.000Z> OfInterist: Sounds like fun ahead 
<2022-12-03T17:54:13.000Z> OfInterist: hey, just fyi, it seems the issue with jims chudbuds account has returned. it was all good for a bit there, but i cant view any of his chudbud posts in the last 24 hours from poast.
<2022-12-03T18:05:03.000Z> graf: ah alright, looks like that was just a bandaid. ill look further into it tonight, im working on some security stuff rjn
<2022-12-03T18:05:19.000Z> OfInterist: all good, thanks
<2023-02-02T22:05:23.000Z> OfInterist: perhaps i should have asked, but i assumed this isnt a "dox" proper given he just put this out himself so people would send him things:

<2023-02-02T22:05:47.000Z> graf: thank you for asking
<2023-02-02T22:06:03.000Z> OfInterist: np
<2023-02-15T00:55:46.000Z> OfInterist: Idk if you care, or if it's even something you can remedy, but in case you didng know the Translate button gives me an "unexpect error" message every time I use it. Probably not unique to me. Perhaps only on Android mobile browser.
<2023-02-15T00:55:56.000Z> OfInterist: Didnt*
<2023-02-15T00:59:01.000Z> graf: yep it's an API key exhaustion 
<2023-02-15T00:59:04.000Z> graf: I was just looking at it

<2023-02-15T01:07:38.000Z> graf: yeah that wasnt the issue, im not sure friend i will look into it
<2023-02-15T01:13:51.000Z> OfInterist: All good. I don't mind, but I've seen you post frustration when no one alerts you to known issues.
<2023-02-15T01:14:01.000Z> graf: yeah I did see this one earlier, thank you tho

<2023-03-03T02:17:39.000Z> graf: I didn't see it lol sorry 
<2023-03-06T04:43:50.000Z> OfInterist: i dont want to publicize this on the timeline, but whomever hacked chudbuds got all of claire's DMs and they're available now for anyone to see. perhaps more since there seems to be a DM between two other individuals.
<2023-03-06T04:44:07.000Z> graf: yeah i know
<2023-03-06T04:50:20.000Z> OfInterist: any cause for concern that you see? besides emails 
<2023-03-06T04:51:08.000Z> graf: that person would have had filesystem access to make a dump like that 
<2023-03-06T04:51:19.000Z> graf: which means they had access to the salt used to hash passwords, IPs
<2023-03-06T04:51:57.000Z> OfInterist: fuck.
<2023-03-06T05:01:38.000Z> OfInterist: is there a way to tell which email i used for poast? im in the settings but i do not see one displayed. simply lets me change my email, but i dont want to change it to the same one it already is set up with
<2023-03-06T05:02:51.000Z> OfInterist: thank you
<2023-03-06T05:04:02.000Z> graf: delete this convo by leaving it and i will do the same, this will erase it from poast 
<2023-03-06T05:04:41.000Z> OfInterist: thank you

<2023-03-06T06:26:25.000Z> graf: she might have got access back to it idk
<2023-03-06T06:26:31.000Z> graf: i told her to disconnect her pc when i spoke to her
<2023-03-06T06:26:37.000Z> graf: then i deactivated her poast account
<2023-03-06T06:27:03.000Z> graf: to reiterate we are not culpable to this means of attack and any vector that could have been used against us has been removed by disallowing remote access to our hardware
<2023-03-06T06:28:01.000Z> OfInterist: i always stuck here for main because i had my doubts about claire's technological know-how, no offense to her, just how it seemed.
<2023-03-06T06:28:08.000Z> OfInterist: id be as last as her
<2023-03-06T06:28:20.000Z> OfInterist: lost*
<2023-03-06T06:46:42.000Z> graf: im trying my best to make sure we dont have this issue
<2023-03-06T06:46:51.000Z> graf: i dont think we will, i mean our security is top tier
<2023-03-06T06:47:00.000Z> graf: there is no remote access on any of our machines right now
<2023-03-06T07:02:27.000Z> OfInterist: do you know if there is a website like ivebeenpwned where you can check to see what other websites an email was used to sign up for? if thats even a thing. i see someone on kf screenshotting something that looks to do that.
<2023-03-06T07:02:41.000Z> graf: not something im aware of, im sorry
<2023-03-06T07:02:56.000Z> OfInterist: all good. thank you very much for the assistance tonight.
<2023-03-08T08:00:24.000Z> OfInterist: hey, i know that you and xani have had your differences and he isn't welcomed back on poast, but would you be open to temporarily allowing him access to his old account so he may view his DMs there? i believe he wishes to just manually delete everything on his end then close out the account.
<2023-03-08T08:13:16.000Z> graf: even if I was interested in doing something for someone who I don't believe deserves it, his account was GDPR wiped. there's *nothing* on it including no email. I would have to activate it , assign an email to it and send him a password reset link for him to log on to an empty account. not going through that effort. it's been entirely wiped 
<2023-03-08T08:13:48.000Z> OfInterist: alright, i appreciate the explanation. thank you for considering.
<2023-03-08T08:16:02.000Z> graf: theres two options when you action an account: a deactivation which leaves everything including posts, following/followers, DMS etc and a delete which absolutely wipes everything to do with that user. the latter is what was done to his account
<2023-03-08T08:16:35.000Z> OfInterist: so would that mean his DMs were wiped already?
<2023-03-08T08:17:07.000Z> OfInterist: and are you ok with me sharing your explanation with him?
<2023-03-08T08:17:13.000Z> graf: on poast yes. we can't wipe other instances DMS with him because we don't control their database. anything he sent from here that was federated to another server we have no control over 
<2023-03-08T08:18:05.000Z> OfInterist: ok, i will try relaying that to him. thank you, again.
<2023-03-08T08:19:49.000Z> graf: go ahead. there's not much else I or he could do to his account to be honest with you 
<2023-03-08T08:25:32.000Z> OfInterist: he wanted me to forward you his thank you for the explanation.

<2023-03-11T03:45:27.000Z> OfInterist: i have no idea where to start with the swattings topic. i have a difficult enough time maintaining good opsec on an individual level letalone knowing people with the technical know-how to pull that off. a lot of the possible perps people have told about are new to me. i hope whoever is behind it is caught and the swattings end. they should be considered an attempted murder for all i care.
<2023-03-11T03:49:38.000Z> graf: well thats what they are trying to do -- the cops told me the way they phrase stuff is commonly used in suicide by cop and other methods of getting cops to kill people
<2023-03-11T03:49:43.000Z> graf: so i consider it to be an attempt on my life 
<2023-03-12T00:14:30.000Z> OfInterist: hey, ive been told youve turned off account creation and im aware the mod staff and userbase have a distaste for my usual content. if youd like me to leave thats ok with me and ill close everything out this evening.
<2023-03-12T00:15:28.000Z> graf: we don't have an issue with you at all, not sure where you got that idea. we disabled registrations to avoid an influx of chudbuds users because the majority of that userbase is cancerous 
<2023-03-12T00:15:36.000Z> graf: we will turn them back on next week but ur fine 
<2023-03-12T00:17:35.000Z> OfInterist: alright, i appreciate it. if it becomes an issue just lmk. dont want to overstay my welcome.
<2023-03-12T00:18:28.000Z> graf: no you're fine. it's 100% related to the self cannibalizing community that existed on that instance
<2023-04-22T04:08:46.000Z> OfInterist: hey, just a heads up, i know you have a lot on your plate with the sam stuff. i was tuned into the fishtank twitter space and theyre claiming there's ample evidence the letty stuff is known revenge porn from a bad actor. they didnt go into details, and this could all be to cover so people dont promote it, but figured youd want to decide.
<2023-04-22T04:11:18.000Z> graf: the only place i saw it was when you posted it and it looks like you removed it. i dont know either way but that's good, I'd rather err on the side of caution and not shit where I may eat 
<2023-04-22T04:12:46.000Z> OfInterist: yeah, they alluded to someone from discord and ive heard here discuss spending a lot of time on there so its tracks. i know ive seen people on twitter posting censored screencaps. didnt know if people had shared them here though.
<2023-04-22T04:13:16.000Z> graf: nope I haven't seen them just when you sent it
