bigrat.monster's Issues

an electron app called: big rat

electron apps are easy to setup because they just run on html.

you can just copy and paste big rat html file to electron compiler and done.

so yeah good idea

[Feature Req] Homepage for bigrat

Ive created a homepage search bar featuring the bigrat himself.

Feel free to check out the source code!

https://github.com/nburnet1/bigrat-search

Make the 404 the same as the homepage

I don't like the redirect, and I am sure this could be done.

API

ex. choose a random image from the monkeys/ directory
or something lol

Clear up meta tags

Since our meta tags are generated, there are some redundant tags which can be removed.

I mean, who's gonna share bigrat on Facebook anyways?

Thank you

This has changed my life in ways I didn't know were possible.

Additional context
I've tried doing a hard reload, but it didn't fix the problem

Main image file is unsatisfactory

When I first entered the URL "bigrat.monster" into my web browser of choice I noticed that image loaded in quite slow on my awful excuse for an internet (took around 5 or 10 seconds to load, maybe even longer) and once I finished loading the site I inspected the image file of the big ol rat itself that was transported across to my computer locally and I noticed it was a "PNG", after seeing it was this format I zoomed into the image and to my horror it had JPEG artifacts indicating that at some point in time the image was a JPEG but then was converted to a PNG which is one of the worst things that can happen to an image! after coming to this realization I to my best efforts spent hours trying to find the source image (or as close as I could get) for the big rat and I was very close to finding it as I had found a non-cropped version of the image in it's suspected original dimensions of 1280x960 in the form of a JPEG however my happiness dissipated as on closer examination of the highest quality version of the big rat I could find was that it was of a lower quality then the cropped PNG residing on "bigrat.monster" as it had more JPEG artifacts and worse colors.

All of this is to ask if anyone has the source image of the big rat itself or at least the highest quality version available (if it's a JPEG then that's a good sign as the original was a JPEG).

Having this would be amazing as it would provide the opportunity to the replace the current image the website uses with a losslessly cropped version of the JPEG which would provide the benefits of a smaller file size alongside progressive decoding capabilities and would allow anyone who visits the site and downloads the image to preform operations on the image file to attempt to restore lost quality from JPEG artifacts which is something that can only be done with an original JPEG file and not a PNG!

@SoNothingMC This repo has been around since 2020 which is one of the earliest points in time I have seen references to the big rat online and I see that in 2021 you replaced the image on the website with a high quality version so I must ask if you have the original file on hand or know who might.

Revise facts

Those aren't facts, those are studies or just slamming haters in a way. Not to mention the facts are mostly just bloat and really unnecessary. Something like Snapple facts may be more straightforward and nice.

Licensing

This repository currently has no license. Others currently only have the legal rights to view and fork the source code via Github's Terms of Service. Consider adding an open source license perhaps? The MIT License or the Unlicense may do well here, though some others like the GPLv3 may be more suitable if you wish for derivative works to remain free.

Note that this specific repository has caveats; many (if not all) of the image assets that it utilizes are unclear in original author and licensing. They should not be included under a license as they are not original works. Consider placing them in a different root folder and/or adding a standalone disclaimer if possible.

Stop using the discord CDN

Describe the bug
bigrat.monster/quiz currently loads content using a link to the discord CDN. This is bound to stop working eventually.

To Reproduce
Look at Line 21 in /js/quiz.js, it loads the following image:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/689287762335367255/775898066074992650/s7f1gobxlkm51.jpg.

Expected behavior
Not loading content from cdn.discordapp.com, but instead from https://bigrat.monster/media/

Additional context
Discord started timestamping these CDN links, so it is likely that the non-timestamped links will be invalid soon.
See https://reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/16zs1gt/cdndiscordapp_links_will_expire_breaking/ for additional info.
