@darryl@toot.community Nothing terrible, just spamming me. I went out for a few hours and came back to a bunch of mentions of the most boring/generic marketing wank. Had planned to try some prompt injection to see if I could make it say ridiculous things but have run out of motivation 😄
Did get something though, seems like it's really struggling with character encoding

@TechSupport@equestria.social Adding a mangle rule that clamps MSS seems to have fixed it. For some reason linux sends higher than advisable MSS to some hosts and I guess pmtud is getting swallowed fr

@Karcsesz@equestria.social trying to wrap my head around the why's of what's going on, is your linux host adapters mtu > 1500bytes?
I am also out of my scope here, I can vaguely see the shape of the problem, but don't have the expertise to really nail down what's going on.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social I don't understand how this seemingly occurred without any kind of regulatory oversight? Or has it actually been in the works behind closed doors for a long time?

@Karcsesz@equestria.social not related to packet fragmentation? Or, Does the gpon adapter and your isp happen to do baby jumbo frames (to allow for full 1500 byte packets inside the pppoe encapsulatio

@TechSupport@equestria.social That is a really really good idea! I should look into it. Though I'm not sure if it explains why this only happens when talking to a specific subnet.

@Karcsesz@equestria.social I'm not really sure either, unless it happens elsewhere but elegantly falls back (via fragmentation or ptmud) to smaller mtu, but that specific network is blackholing pmtud?
