Since the original is deleted, here is the old glorious lore. 💩
The real tragedy here is that with the OP deleted I doubt we’ll get a follow-up. How am I meant to sleep without knowing if this man managed to go three days without shitting??
By replicating it. Now you have to go 3 days without pooping. For science.
Yes, good science is repeatable and reproducible. Go forth and expand our knowledge.
All the usernames end in @web.archive.org instead of their native instance names. Weird…
Weird. How did they achieve that?
Archive.org replaces all links with their own site so you don’t click a link and get directed to a non-existent page. I’d bet that after they do this lemmy’s JavaScript renders the UI, but the domains have all changed to web.archive.org/instance, so in the UI’s mind everyone is from web.archive.org
It’s probably being picked up as email addresses and filtered accordingly, CF does the same thing
A classic that deserves to be immortalised. Shame the snapshot only caught part of the comments, and even more shame that it will no longer sit at its deserved spot as the most upvoted post on Lemmy.
Amusing AND educational. I love this place - top comment came from a place of understanding instead of being a snarky first-to-the-post one-liner.
Hopefully OOP achieved his goal and/or found some relief.
Thanks archive.org
How did I miss this lovely thread
Well shit.
