Surely anything above €2M should be regarded as excessive. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…0hde A world without encryption absolutely would not work. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…52nc Don't lose sight of the fact that there was much loss and hardship, and 'fast' is only a retrospective view; people living through the 1950s and 60s and early 70s probably would not feel that way. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…mvd8 Are you sure about that? npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…dysu @nprofile…4hqr Anyone with an #indieweb or #smolweb site should keep a 'Community' list of around seven other sites they have full confidence in being curated by human sweat. That way we strengthen the Human Web. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…g4vn I actually blame everything on Bill Gates myself. His was the first really evil squash-everyone-and-take-all-the-money company, the rest have followed the model. The recent spate of bullshit business models I think is due to the availability of investment apps which give access to the stock markets to people who just don't have a clue; these are the real customers (products) of the all-money grabbers. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…2w3r @nprofile…ugpy On the other hand there will be long-legacy programs which the serious distributions will gravitate towards. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…v2v2 It maybe gets me to thinking that a futuristic language might involve writing two programs side by side: one which does the thing and runs at run time, and one which tells the compiler if the first is doing something else, which is executed at compile time. But then I wonder if these two would necessarily have to be different languages, in which case the problem doesn't really go away... npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…ynd9 @nprofile…x5xn @nprofile…ctza I think it is more like, their house has been abandoned with the doors open, and some dubious squatters have moved in. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…a6hr You dying on that hill is not really the point. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…p9kg Nature is feeling strong today. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…ggeh I remember using this on HPUX workstations circa 1991; it was the only thing that could put pictures on the desktop root (background). npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…h0ux Dead cat bounce. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…wfat Tends to be in the 100GB region. I would do it more often but I wish it wasn't so aggressive, making the following pull expensive. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…p9kg That's a rollercoaster of a story. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril Just in case somebody is reading this and doesn't know: https://noai.duckduckgo.com. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…cdda @nprofile…gcle Go and read it again, then. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…9xhj Where we're going the roads have all crumbled away. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…d6ag Trees! It is all about the trees! npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…awd8 That's a sad story. It pains me to see that you feel you have to write like that, but I think the world is generally better than that. Feel the warm sun whenever you can, and, if not, imagine it! npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…n2fr @nprofile…4gas My site is https://khleedril.org/spark. It does not get much notice. Most comments run along the lines of 'I'll read it when it's finished.' https://khleedril.org/spark/graphic/title?cache=1 npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…rg5t I don't know which language that is written in, but I understood every word of it! npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…r769 I'm resisting the urge and thanking you for the clarification, in your justifiably roundabout way. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…65q8 That is an excellent article. I do think that you can self-host on someone else's computer, shrinking all the financial costs to a couple of small ones (hosting fee and domain name; just those are cheaper than having any kind of home internet connection). I run a root server in the cloud, on an OpenStack instance. The entire machine is defined by me. I regard it as self-hosting. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril I'm somewhat in despair at the number of blog posts and articles which are becoming increasingly sterilely perfect. People are using LLMs more and more, sometimes declaring it and sometimes not, and the English language is visibly shrinking as a direct consequence. What can we do? This is terrible :( #indieweb #writing #llm #blog npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…fyjs Yes I understand that, I was more wondering if it couldn't have been a more general library which could compile to x86 or ARM? npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…fyjs Does it have to be compiled to WASM? npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril For you RSS junkies, I've implemented my own at https://khleedril.org/blog/rss.

Let's call it ten for now... npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…pfuj If you have had any kind of an education at all, you will never be able to make sense of the actions of the innately ignorant. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…stmg @nprofile…3mfq Needs description about each pointer in my humble opinion. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…yxlh What feeling? (I'm a thirty-year code monkey, you can talk talk with me.) npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…dymg I didn't mention hydro and I don't rate it as a clean source of energy. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…dymg Nuclear is cleaner in every way as long as the reactor doesn't blow up. Personally, I have confidence in the technology, and would like to see 100% nuclear/wind/solar electricity generation. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…hgrn Whenever I need a cure for a deadly virus (again), I always go to a woman warlock. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…3q9y The original two-factor authentication was a ruse to force you to give up your phone number. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…285u Fantastic, but sad. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…emk6 Print this out and stick it on the wall, people. Nobody speaks with the fluidity novel dialogues suggest, and you wouldn't want to read a novel if it contained text as tedious as literal transcription. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…7802 Please take every encouragement to continue working on this, it would be really great if you could make the whole thing a smooth experience. I would love someday in the future to have a triple-open (open hardware, open firmware, open source operating system) RISC-V PC! npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…g4vn I was under the impression that human-on-the-glass was the agent's presented interface to the actual human. Not a security researcher... npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…ayk9 Sorry but #VLC already did that. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…8zjt @nprofile…998y We are in a situation where money is worth more in the hand than being spent on something useful. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…scce All this assumes you haven't run into an elaborate honeypot? npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…lx0q @nprofile…2qg0 UTF-8 is wonderful: it also gives you distinguished apostrophes ʼ and single-close-quote ’, as well as “ and ” and of course ‘. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…mg74 So nice. And to think that the person responsible did the work a hundred years ago and never got to see the fruits of their labours. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…scce "Similar with official mobile apps, there's no privacy agreements etc in the app stores as there's no third party tracking." What? I thought the reason they try to coerce you into using mobile apps is precisely because they (and Google, the NSA, etc) can track you, without needing cookies and thereby side-stepping the law. Don't they all insist on Google Play Services (a binary black box) so that your information can be shared between apps? npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…ppe2 Entabbification. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…ayk9 It is easy to laugh about these things, but put yourself in a time when people knew little and thought that the heart was the centre of intelligence. The only discernible difference of women from men is that they have tits and fannies, and they are, on average, more prone to hysteria. Tits are just wobbly things, so the hysteria must be something to do with the fanny, right? So surely the way to cure hysteria is to make the fanny either happy or distracted. You know I'm right. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…s67t No, it doesn't. The 'weakness' is in the protocol. All of ActivityPub is designed around the idea that it is a *broadcast* medium. @nprofile…fn3d @nprofile…jfkz npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…t9fa Equating a building site in the middle of the DC municipal district to the destruction of millions of innocent people's only homes and lives? Oh dear. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…cn56 You are not alone 👊🏼 npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…lggw ``fonts, to serif or not to serif'' That is the question. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…pye9 ``Listen. Not to the words. Listen to the sound. What is it doing to you? Is it lifting you? Or is it pressing you down into the earth? A voice is never just a voice. It is an act of creation or an act of destruction, and we are all, every day, choosing which one to be.'' That's a thesis. To be fair, I think the last paragraph is slightly out of character with the rest of the work. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…pye9 That's beautiful, but I disagree with its core thesis. Most people can't control how their voice comes across, and you must put all heed in the words they choose rather than the rattle they instil in your ears. Otherwise, you are judging a book by its covers. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…uxf3 ``Also - NO "editors" who use AI and just shove writing into LLM.'' Are there really people who will take your work and give it to Microsoft for unabashed plagiarism? Scum. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…a0z2 > I need urgency. I’m taking too long. I'll take some slow-motion the way things are going right now. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…4dwe Bottom line is you can't open a phone, but you can get inside a computer and see what it is made of. They use that fact against us. If it is cheaper for them to put a smaller battery in next year's model, they will, and we can't do anything about it. If they can make money by forcing subscription onto software, they'll lock it down first and there's nothing we can do about it. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…dv7t @nprofile…args I'm waiting for the day when, to get them out of the way, you tell the robot man to take the robot dog out for a long walk. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…pmdx In my opinion the choice comes down to you: if you want a dynamic digital paper keep it on the arXiv or submit to a more relaxed journal; if you want a refereed 'paper' paper (i.e. the old-fashioned sort) then submit to Springer, or whoever. In the past it wasn't possible to make changes once a journal had been printed and put on bookshelves, and that is a kind of historical curation which I think is important to preserve. I totally understand why opinions would vary on this. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…pmdx Well, I agree with the second term. Once a manuscript is accepted, it becomes an immutable, historical document. If it contains mistakes, they may be corrected in subsequent correspondence, but the record must stand as provenance of the historical development of the subject area. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…qz4x That's it: Google are now judge, jury, and executioner on the Internet. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…6cfc @nprofile…r7u3 @nprofile…ucsf It doesn't work for me. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…tzh3 ... breaking shin bones! npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…3sf2 Impressed that someone writes an entire zero draft.

It is of course the non-measurable ones that really count, like how happy the people are. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…zfuh @nprofile…8vn3 Yep, the Internet has been properly wrecked at this point. npub1djpjte6da4h2pxe5v7ejrupza8v4j8cl6vztcgyqphwtsvjpcxeskautst Khleedril @nprofile…g398 @nprofile…hcpm @nprofile…jrff Boosting this because it would be good to make some people feel guilty enough to do something about it.
