Depends on what subgenres you’re into.

I really enjoy power metal, and Gloryhammer is one of my faves. He has returned, Keeper of the celestial flame, Land of unicorns, Masters of the galaxy, and Rise of the chaos wizards are all ones I really enjoy.

Prog metal is another really good genre, and Between the Buried and Me is amazing and have some fantastic concept albums. Coma Ecliptic has The Coma Machine and Memory Palace being a hell of an earworm. The Great Misdirect has Obfuscation and Feed from Cloud Mountain as those two slots, and The Parallax double album is great (part 1 is a good ep, part 2 is the main album), with Astral Body being one of the main singles and so many tracks that get stuck in my head.

I listed a bunch of other bands in this comment as well that are really good as well: https://lemmy.world/comment/19203007

Metal music is the majority of what I’m listening to most of the time.

Progressive metal is my reset music. Something about a good prog track with crazy technical instrumentality just helps my brain calm down and focus. Between the Buried and Me was the band that got me hooked on prog metal and dirty vocals, and tends to be one of my most listened to artists most of the time.

Power metal is a great genre to work/vibe to. Sabaton was my first venture into the genre, but I’m more into bands like Amaranthe, Powerwolf, and Gloryhammer these days.

Testing how shit blows you up is a weird way to describe ‘helping people’

Word of warning though, check out the company before you do so. My mother in law was in the medical field and had a coworker that did this. The company ended up refusing the body because they had too many bodies. I’ve also heard of your body being used to test munitions, which is pretty much the opposite of what a lot of people would want.

Congrats on doing it the way the website owner wants! You’re now into the content, and you had to waste seconds of processing power to do so (effectively being throttled by the owner), so everyone is happy. You can’t overload the site, but you can still get there after a short wait.

You’re given the challenge to solve by the server, yes. But just because the challenge is provided to you, that doesn’t mean you can fake your way through it.

You still have to calculate the answer before you can get any farther. You can’t bullshit/spoof your way through the math problem to bypass it, because your correct answer is required to proceed.

There is no way around this, is there?

Unless the server gives you a well-known problem you have the answer to/is easily calculated, or you find a vulnerability in something like Anubis to make it accept a wrong answer, not really. You’re stuck at the interstitial page with a math prompt until you solve it.

Unless I’m misunderstanding your position, I’m not sure what the disconnect is. The original question was about spoofing the challenge client side, but you can’t really spoof the answer to a complicated math problem unless there’s an issue with the server side validation.

Dill hot pickles, none of that nasty sweet pickle shit.

Please, explain to us how you expect to spoof a math problem that you have to provide an answer to the server before proceeding.

You can math all you want on the client, but the server isn’t going to give you shit until you provide the right answer.

Well, project 2025 was released a few years ago, and is not directly related to the current presidential administration. And to add onto that, the fascist right across the world have been reading from the same playbook for a while, so it’s perfectly understandable to assume that non-american fascists are using a similar playbook to gain control of their respective countries.

I doubt if charge backs even made a fraction of a difference in this. This is entirely about power, with the republicans enacting their christofaacist project 2025 agenda to try to turn the US into a religious hellhole based on their twisted read of the Bible (which, realistically, is nothing more than a cudgel welded by principle-less opportunists taking advantage of the stupid and religious).

Project 2025. They literally bragged about the shit they wanted to do while claiming they had nothing to do with it.

It baffles me that people are surprised this is happening, but a large majority of the voting population either doesn’t care or are ok with this.

How much can a twix limo cost? $20?

Did you make it relevant to the post, or are you just spamming the exact same contextless message across multiple threads?

What makes piefed better than Lemmy?

I had to put balatro down after spending 4 days straight trying to get conpletionist++. After the few hundred hours it took to get the rest of the achievements. I will get those last damned rare Jimbo’s at some point!!

I’ve come to find that life’s purpose is what you make of it, and living for others/people you love is the best way I’ve found to be able to ignore that feeling. Also copious amounts of weed and therapy.

Is that a vanilla world, or how have you gone that long without your world hitting lag death? I mod the fuck out of my worlds, so I generally don’t get more than 3-6mo before the game starts to become unplayable.

You probably need to find the genre that tickles your brain just right. I found that automation games are like crack to my brain. Since you mentioned minecraft and satisfactory, have you played Factorio or Astro Space Colony or Dyson sphere program? Those are games in a similar automation vein and are other ones that gave me the same feeling as the other two (currently playing Minecraft again rn)

Then return right where I left off anywhere between 6 months and 4 years later.

Unless the return consists of restarting the game, or trying to play for an hour or two then quit out of frustration because you have no idea what the fuck was going on here, I just can’t relate.

Because if there are two things that are comparable, it’s the mercurial whims of man vs the unstoppable force that is nature. And much like humans, nature can be reasoned with and convinced to not destroy everything.
