    Oh, I think this is a post of a home-shitter ( someone who only shits at home, not at someone else’s home, not in public toilets and definitively not in nature ) who tries to go on a multi-day travel. Rather a than getting over his mental block, he tries to prep his body to not shit for 3 days.

    Poor soul.

      So was I.
      Although my account back then was on a now dead instance. 😔

                There was once a lone server admin who ran the show and but everything was good.

                Then people came, we don’t tell from where, and the users and amount of posts increases, the lone server admin no longer could handle all of that themself and asked some mods to co-admin the instance. Everything was good again

                Then the server admin took a well deserved vacation, to an unknown location. But the co admins could handle the administrative stuff. Everything seemed good.

                Then bugs were detected. Updates were needed. Harddisks ran full. The dreaded /pictrs issue arose and caused PTSD. Required keys and permissions were not granted to the co admins. But hope remain that the server admin returns from their vacation…

                they never returned…

                the migration to a new instance was costly,
                the fate of that server admin? shrouded in mysteries.


                disclaimer I suck at story telling in a non native language.

        IIRC OP disappeared, without an update. The most sane guess I read was that they were going to the Hajj, the Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca, they live in tents during that

        OP commented cheerfully on all the memes about him, but still refused to elaborate. Then he disappeared for the week, as expected. I can’t remember for sure, but I thought I recalled him returning briefly asking for advice on dealing with severe constipation, getting annoyed that everyone still only wanted to talk about how his week went and what the hell this was all about, and then he disappeared for good. I assume he’s likely still around under a new identity and he just sighs and clicks away every time this is brought up again.

            Maybe? Can’t go back and look because the account was deleted. I could have easily missed or even forgotten any additional details. Heck, I recently had to be reminded it was 3 days and not a whole week, so don’t put to much trust in my memory.

      I was there, Bootleg. I was there 3 thousand years ago. I was there the day the patience of Lemmy failed. I mean, come on mizu6079, just tell us why you need to avoid pooping for that long!

      But yeah, that happened right after I started using Lemmy. I’d been commenting for less than a week, and my first post was a “Chewy, we’re home” meme about how all the memes on the topic made me feel as a new user. That account’s long dead now, but apparently lemmy.world still has my post https://lemmy.world/post/560966. Federation is neat.

      Lembas bread, one bite is enough to fill the stomach of a grown man while allowing him to go through multiple security checkpoints without pooping.

      Not certain, but I’m guessing it’s something to do with how archive.org archives. I’d say it probably captured some JavaScript which uses window.location.host, which would resolve to the original (say lemmy.nz) on the original page but web.archive.org on the snapshot.

        Update: you seem to be at least partially correct about JS being involved: the webpage source as downloaded from archive.org has a shitton of data in JS structures, while the actual final HTML of that element is nowhere to be found. Meaning the DOM is assembled from the JS data on the fly. Now, the page url, as I predicted, doesn’t seem to figure in this, because the data itself contains numerous instances of ‘web.archive.org’ in it. I’m guessing that Archive’s algorithm replaced the site domain to be prefixed with Archive’s domain and went a bit overboard about it, which seems then to have confused Lemmy’s JS into using the web.archive.org domain as the instance domain when rendering the page.

        For better or worse, I don’t use stimulants harder than tea, and amn’t so young anymore as to reverse-engineer this thing further.

        That’s very doubtful, seeing as since the post might belong to any of the multitude of instances, the api must send the instance name in the response to the client. The client’s host doesn’t figure in that. Additionally, the screenshot looks like the default UI, whatever it’s called (at least default for lemmy.world), and it doesn’t show the instance domain for communities on the same instance (at least doesn’t show currently).

        But I’ll look into the JS hypothesis later. Weird shit is afoot there.

    I’ve done this before. I was on a beach in Mexico back in the day for 3 days. Slept on the beach in a hammock. The nearest bathroom was about 30 minutes because it was a secluded beach. There was an outhouse you could shit in and I kid you not it looked like the poop scene from slumdog millionaire. I decided I would not shit till I left.

    Honestly I ate normal food and it was fine so I think crippling anxiety is enough to make this possible.

    Please stop asking because I am not telling anyone the reason.

    Is it spiders? I bet it’s toilet spiders.

    Are there any instances out there that archive deletes? If it was deleted after I shut mine down, I might have the comments.

      Sounds like a possibility to me. Maybe they have hemorrhoids and using TP for three days will tear that brown starfish to shreds. Not that I would know anything aboot that.
