i wrote a rust microkernel with a federation userspace layer where clusters of trusted machines quietly lend each other idle resources inspired by gift economics.
lend your spare capacity, earn the right to borrow. machines find each other automatically on the same network, bond by consent and shared keys, stay fully independent.
a solar machine lends freely at noon and pulls back at dusk. computation drifts toward wherever the cleanest cheapest energy is.
love how you can no longer work in tech without taking the mark of the beast (palantir and persona AI facial and biometric reconigiton for ID verification)
@MediaActivist@thepeoplestech i used to run one but it was too much for me to manage as a single person. i do miss it though and the solarpunk matrix server i also ran too.
@gamingonlinux i'll always be an "arse" about things that i know for a fact do not work, and i won't outright spell out alternatives because such things are why warehouses are burning down over here right now and it'd be completely stupid to recommend doing that on social media.
your response irks me. you take it personal that i'm giving actual feedback on what does and doesn't work, you make assumptions about what i'm doing/not doing, and then you call me an ass. tbh, you can go fuck yourself.
"Currently, the bill is only in the introductory stage so it hasn't yet passed and become law, so if this is important to you in the US you may want to speak to your representatives."
it's amusing how every time a law like this comes into the spotlight, someone just HAS to say "speak to your reps"
that doesn't do anything, they do NOT care. they are owned and paid for by billion dollar companies and individuals.
alternative strategies might work, and more people need to do those instead.
if there's a class of people who would charge you for the sunlight shining down every day, the air you breathe, and the water you drink at the first opportunity to do so, it's time to think about how to make that class of people disappear and never come back
so im looking for an image i had a while ago and cant seem to find anywhere again. it was the red and black anarchist flag with the gadsden snake in front of it but the snake had 3 iron front arrows shot through it. if anyone has that anywhere or has its source i would love to reacquire that image ty!!
we have nearly 300 million years left before this rock gets boiled. i'm sure in that amount of time, we'll figure it out going really slow, and we won't accelerate the destruction of life on the planet either.
but that'll cut into profits and the ability to innovate? too bad. cease to exist
but that'll make businesses and billionaires who push the world forward obsolete. too bad. cease to exist. die in fact.
if we can't figure it out slow and egalitarian we don't need to figure it out at all.
im old enough to have experienced it a million times by now, but sometimes i'm still taken aback by it. a lot of men just do not care if you're available, don't care if you're married, don't care if you're a lesbian, don't care if you're not interested. they just will not shut the fuck up and leave you alone and accept no for an answer.
the bozo won't even know that their phone is telling on them creeping around. unless they have it in airplane mode or wifi turned off or it's inside a faraday bag shoved up their ass
this first test runs for 7 days, we'll see how it goes. ill use the results to tweak scoring/analyses/heuristics and then start working on other modules for bluetooth, drone detection, etc. then it's onto nodes for triangulation and perimeter building, and mmwave sensors for object detection/heatmapping.
it also keeps up with client SSID beacons, so say your ex/stalker used to be able to connect to your wifi but since they've been living elsewhere, they're using their own home wifi and it's called "<firstname>'s wifi"
well, if you have their name or their workplace wifi SSID listed in correlator keywords, it prioritizes scoring for anything in that list. and if they come sneaking around and their phone is like hey where tf is <workplace> or <firstname>'s wifi at, this will alert you of matches
