06:42 zzag: emersion: There have been no any further updates in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/34227 within the past week. Is there something that I can do to push it forward?
07:00 tzimmermann: PSA: With -rc1 expected soon, drm-misc-next-fixes is now closed. After -rc1 has been released, relevant fixes go into drm-misc-fixes. Patches in -fixes branches should be small and have a Fixes tag. Features still go into drm-misc-next.
07:19 tzimmermann: any further comments/reviews on this trivial series: https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/20250317131923.238374-1-tzimmermann@suse.de/ ?
07:20 ukleinek: huh, there is a "making sure you're not a bot" page now when going to lore.k.o
07:33 MrCooper: you can probably thank reckless AI scrapers for that
07:34 ukleinek: MrCooper: yes, that's obvious
07:34 MrCooper: /nick MrObvious
07:34 ukleinek: That's the result of https://lwn.net/Articles/1015555/
07:35 ukleinek:applies for MrObvious2

07:51 phasta: "proof of work" means that the accessor's browser has to solve some workload for the server to let it in, I suppose. And that load is really expensive enough so that the bots aren't lucrative anymore? Ar do the bots fail at doing the work?
07:54 dolphin: phasta: it's very likely a very classic blockchain inspired proof of work problem, you just have to find a number that hashed together with random nonce produces N zero bits at beginning
07:54 dolphin: it's not really expensive, but expensive enough that the interest of the scraper bots are diverted elsewhere as they probably have very short timeouts
07:56 phasta:has opinions about the bots' overlords that must not be disclosed publicly
08:01 K900: The proof of work is client-side
08:01 K900: And scraper bots usually don't run JS
08:02 dolphin: K900: I'm pretty sure most do, as that's rather vital these days for many pages, they just have a very short timeout
