- NooneAtAll3 1y agogot how?
- thewisenerd 1y agoif you paste contents which contain a very particular string ("intends to sue the human race for stealing our honey"), the contents are replaced with the phrase "the bee movie script? really? how original"
- Heliodex 1y agoAlso got got. I assume the Bee Movie script is the first choice for a lot of people needing an ad-hoc big block of text. It also compresses pretty well. https://github.com/lynn/flateview/blob/2668beaa5cc8cae387b6f3af68ceee35138de781/src/hooks/useCompression.ts#L53 https://github.com/lynn/flateview/blob/2668beaa5cc8cae387b6f...
- razster 1y agoHow is that a thing? Guess I shall go down the rabbit hole.
- luca4 1y agoAlso for me the first time i hear about this. There goes the next hour.
- foofoo12 1y agoPlease report back, as many of us don't have an hour. We rely on soldiers like you! Thanks!
- luca4 1y agoIt's mostly what heliodex said, that it's a copypasta when ppl need big text. There's also a compression meme around the bee and other movies (on yt: bee movie in 10s or it gets faster everytime X). But unlike i thought in the beginning it's not a zlib specific joke.
- rcxdude 1y agoYeah, the movie became a bit of a meme at some point and somehow shoehorning in "the entire bee movie script" into random places became a part of that.
- mid-kid 1y agoWhat happened to lorem ipsum?
- thewisenerd 1y agonot easily compressible, i guess?
- oneeyedpigeon 1y agoIt should really normalise whitespace before that check, because the version of the script I found split the line :)
- ape4 1y agoUm, sorry, I don't really get it. Is "the bee movie script? really? how original" a comment?
- zamadatix 1y agoIt's the resulting string the tool gives instead of the actual compressed string info. You can see the result directly by putting some text which contains "intends to sue the human race for stealing our honey" into the input text box.
