I make stuff that doesn't work. he/him 🇨🇦 Discord: @Preloading Mastodon: @preloading@mastodon.social Website: preloading.dev
looks like reddit killed old reddit w/o auth. gotta love web scrapers (probably).
After 3 years @preloading.dev and I have finally released Skyglow Notifications Daemon!, free and open source notifications for iOS 4 to 9 and OSX 10.8 to 26, find out more here: cydia.skyglow.es/tweaks/Notif... www.reddit.com/r/LegacyJail...
Power here is being a bit finicky due to a storm, so things like everything I host (a twitter bridge) may go down. Also my PDS (bluesky self hosted server), I have no idea how bsky handles a down PDS, so hopefully it doesn't kill me.
someone on the fediverse made a post that made me think. yeah Apple could totally and should be forced into "unlocking the bootloader" on any device where the latest kernel is already exploitable with a known, unfixed bug. sign an LLB/iBoot that displays an unlock warning and then boots whatever
Oh god, apple is on a spree preventing the restoring (unsigning) of: iPad mini wifi + cellular iPad 2 CDMA iPhone 5C iPhone 5 This means if your phone runs into any problem, or you want to reset it... you can't (at least using the official software). They are actively doing this which is uhhhhh.
Well, I've setup a bluesky PDS, and managed to move over a brand new account with nothing with only some solveable issues. Time to try my main account! Here goes nothing! Hopefully this isn't my last post lol.
Is the Microsoft Office Ribbon causing people to have fewer children? A provocative new working paper explores the persistent drop in birth rates since Office 2007 was introduced nearly two decades ago.
sorry to whoever spent like 10 minutes trying to login to my twitter bridge thingy and couldn't because my DNS died 😭
I am not good at hardware... RIP my leapband, it no longer powers on...
I'm trying to replicate this. I made some good progress last weekend but then I bricked the console. But now I have another one! I have setups for all 3 glitches described in the talk, and they all work individually, but combining the two required for the full exploit gets a lot more unreliable.
help I spent too long making a silly private server for emoj.li patched: files.catbox.moe/eyy6qs.apk ok
I'm going to be taking my server offline for a bit to swap the SSD in it, as i've essentially completely ran out of space (it's been like this for a while), and I wanna do some more stuff with my server. Also sorry for the zero warning!
My new cydia tweak TubeReplacer is now out! It's a small fix for the youtube app on iOS 5-9 with signin support. Grab a copy at my cydia repo: cydia.preloading.dev Enjoy <3, leave a star on my github repo if you enjoy!

Looks like Bluesky serves PFPs as WebP now. Turns out a 2012 Twitter client doesn't understand WebP. Fun!
i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript) you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS lyra.horse/x86css/
I *KNEW* the sudden push for identity verification was for nefarious reasons! vmfunc.re/blog/persona (save this and share it around, it might disappear!)
the watchers: how openai, the US government, and persona built an identity surveillance machine that files reports on you to the feds
53MB of source code leaked from a government endpoint. 269 verification checks. biometric face databases. SAR filings to FinCEN. and the same company that verifies your ChatGPT account.

Went to go try and setup a teamspeak server for the lolz and old devices. You have to pay 55$ to teamspeak if you want to host a server ON YOUR OWN HARDWARE with more than 32 people. and they still haven't dropped it. I wonder why everyone went direct to discord lol.
i made an archery game that uses your charging cable as the controller
For the time travelers in 2026, what advice would you give to someone still in 2025?
GitHub Actions charging per build minute for *self-hosted-runners*? Shit's about to hit the fan lol
