Tokyo subway sarin attack

The Tokyo subway sarin attack (地下鉄サリン事件, Chikatetsu Sarin Jiken, "Subway Sarin Incident") was an act of domestic terrorism perpetrated on 20 March 1995, in Tokyo, Japan, by members of the cult movement Aum Shinrikyo. In five coordinated attacks, the perpetrators released sarin on three lines of the Tokyo Metro (then Teito Rapid Transit Authority) during rush hour, killing 14 people, injuring 5,500 people to varying degrees, and causing temporary vision problems for nearly 1,000 others. The attack was directed against trains passing through Kasumigaseki and Nagatachō, where the Diet (Japanes...

@BrowncatPrograms why do you keep finding such niche Wikipedia articles?

To be fair this isn't actually a very niche article

I've come across it multiple times

exedraj

but what path of reading led to it?

Browncat Programs

I actually came across it from an SE post

exedraj

ah I see

same way you found the dancing fever from the 1500s?

Browncat Programs

No, that one was a random factoid I remembered and wanted to verify was a real thing

@BrowncatPrograms do you play piano?

Then again, I wasn't paying that close attention to the sheet music :P

exedraj

you clearly weren't

12 minutes worth of stuff like that

Dude coinheringaahing

A lot of it is fairly repetitive, so once you learn one bar, the next few are basically the same :P

If it was just the top hand, I think I'd do ok, I'm not that good at doing both hands :P

For those of you that have written an SE chatbot, do you mind looking at this code?

It's in Go, and it's a library that looks really mature and promising for interacting with SE chat

... except logging in doesn't work

It uses OpenID and according to this, support ended in 2018

The last commit on the project is 2017

So I totally thought OpenID was the issue, until I noticed that the Vyxal bot also uses OpenID? See here

@PyGamer0 yes, it is

AviFS

Question: So, does anyone know the story with OpenID? Can anyone see a difference between the linked auth in Go and the one in Python? Maybe the issue is unrelated?

pxeger

While OpenID is "no longer supported", you can still use openid.stackexchange.com so it still partly exists

Thanks! So it sounds like the issue isn't with the openid bit, then?
