wolo

I still haven't gotten any popups at all on Firefox with uBlock, not sure what's different about my setup

Oh yeah definitely, Apache is way better for anything remotely serious.

I know about the CGI standard, but mine does things a little differently (executable files don't just render pages but also handle logging, access control, etc. when put in special positions within a directory), so I still think it was worth the afternoon i spent making it.

Maybe I'll finally move it into a VM so I can send a link to it here without tempting people :P

i thought it was neat how php lets you write your website's logic with the same directory tree pattern that clients consume it from, but i didn't want to learn php so i made my own, worse version

#!/bin/bash doesn't work on NixOS since bash is in the nix store somewhere, #!/usr/bin/env bash resolves the correct location regardless of where bash is

I've taken some precautions, it's running in a container as an unprivileged user and the only writable mount is the directory where make writes rendered pages, but i probably should move it into a vm if i want to be completely safe lol

my website's backend is made with bash, it calls make for every request and it probably has hundreds of remote arbitrary code execution bugs that will get me pwned someday, it's great

edit: to clarify, it uses a rust program i made to expose the bash scripts as http endpoints, i'm not crazy enough to implement http in bash

it behaves like a static file server, but if a file has the others-execute permission bit set it executes the file instead of reading it

it's surprisingly nice for prototyping since you can just write a cli program and it's automatically available over http too

if they sold DVDs of Netflix's shows that would actually be pretty nice, but I doubt they would be OK with allowing anyone to actually own their media.

Every good result they serve you could have been an ad, so they're incentivised to replace as many with ads as possible.

Animal Crossing City Folk bricked my Wii U, it was probably unrelated but I like to think Resetti just had enough of my shit

interrobang!
