Autistic tech things you did when you didn't know any better?

>Be in 8th grade
>Have a 4GB iPod
>Be terrified about maxing out my space even though I didn't have that much music
>I would take steps to reduce my song size as much as possible
>First step was record with Audacity in stereo mix then export as lame mp3
>Next step was to drop the mp3 into Windows Movie Maker (the original Movie Maker) and render as the smallest audio file
>Drop that onto the iPod, did that with each and every song
>Turned 3-5MB files into 1MB or less

The audio was so bad, it wasn't until I dropped some music on the iPod when I was too lazy to render them that I realized how big of a mistake it was to destroy the songs like that

Is Google trying to screw over Firefox by making the reCaptcha more difficult when using Firefox to make browsing with Firefox a less pleasant experience?

When posting on 4chan with the non-legacy recaptcha, I almost never have to actually solve the images when using Safari or Edge, but with Firefox I don't recall the recaptcha ever having been solved without having to look at the actual images.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I am using OpenVPN tunnel to my VPS that provides me /64 ipv6 prefix. So, being connected directly I am able to get IPv6 adress for my host. But in case I am doing this from OpenWRT router, I have no way to get IPv6 adressses for LAN devices, because /64 is not splittable.
Any advice?

What is the best website to archive links through? I only know archive.is and archive.org/web.

I'm looking for a website that (1) has a minimal chance that the links will 'go bad' after some period of time, and (2) ideally gives short links for the archived webpages.

maybe one of you anons has a good idea for this.

basically I want to separate a connected area in a 2d grid into the least amount of boxes as fast as possible. Are there any good algorithms lying around?

I came up with this pseudo code to illustrate what I want to do

field = [
    [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ],
    [ 0, 1, 1, 0, 0 ],
    [ 0, 1, 1, 1, 0 ],
    [ 0, 1, 1, 1, 1 ],
    [ 0, 0, 1, 0, 1 ],
    [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ],
]

func manhattan_boxing(field) {

    // collect boxes
    var boxes = [];

    // array of point(x,y)
    var open_cells = get_occupied_points(field);

    while (!open_cells.empty()) {

        // pick a point at random
        var point = random(open_cells);

        // Expansion count to N, E, S, W
        var expansions = {0,0,0,0};

        int n_expansions = 0;

        // repeatedly try to expand in all 4 directions until nothing can be expanded anymore
        do {
            // try to expand north
            if (can_expand_north(field, expansions, point)) {
                expansions[0]++;
                n_expansions++;
            }

            // try to expand east
            if (can_expand_east(field, expansions, point)) {
                expansions[1]++;
                n_expansions++;
            }

            // try to expand south
            if (can_expand_south(field, expansions, point)) {
                expansions[2]++;
                n_expansions++;
            }

            // try to expand west
            if (can_expand_west(field, expansions, point)) {
                expansions[3]++;
                n_expansions++;
            }

        } until (n_expansions == 0);

        box = get_box(point, expansions); // returns a box, which is defined by a minimum and maximum point of its spanning diagonal vectors

        // add box to box collection
        boxes.add(box);

        // remove all open cells that are within the box
        remove_open_cells(open_cells, box);

    }

    return boxes;
}

Any ideas?

Google Sheets is garbage!

You cant even check for conditons in one field, if TRUE input result in another field and of False ignore and repeat to form a list of only trues, without getting blank spaces in the FALSE ones.

In other words

TLDR; Google Sheets, need to parse info from one tab to another, only getting the TRUE fields to have input (and from another column than the TRUE) and doing this in a list without getting blank inputs from the FALSE results.

If 'Sheet1'!A 5 = Yes I need an outout with 'Sheet1'!DD5 and if FALSE, I need it to ignore that first row and check the next, without getting an output to DD5. If 'Sheet1'A44 turns out to be Yes, I need that to go into 'Sheet1'DD5 still

How the hell do I do this? I tried VLOOKUP, INDEX/SMALL and skipping a row, but nothing gives an answer.
