So hypothetically, how expensive would a flammables-safe vacuum distillation rig be?

@leah That mostly means it's insufficiently redundant.
In my view, it's more of a decentralized network, since outside of caching resolvers the data is replicated basically nowhere. -

@icedquinn That's more just displacing the decidability burden. -

Yeah. Hypocrites tend to append a soundless "but only for the right types" to "freedom of speech".

@amszmidt Would that work on some /dev/ttyS0?

How even was one supposed to do the equivalent of ssh user@somehost -t ls -alh via serial?
minicom sure doesn't seem to support that kind of use, neither does screen.
Were you seriously expected to setup PPP just to run rsh over it?

@craigbro @bkuhn I'd hardly call it a dire prediction.
IPv6 lagging behind is in considerable part due to perverse incentives for ISPs to maximally rent-seek IPv4 addresses and "business" features.
IPv6 obsoletes a lot of their rent-seeking schemes, which they dislike.

@dalias @MaksiSanctum I don't get the vaccine thing.
At no point in the past has any genocide used vaccines. It's a lot cheaper and easier to just starve or shoot people, which is exactly what they tend to do.

@alien @mgorny There isn't such a thing as a legitimate reason to use a tool rooted in exploitation and unethical behavior past & future. In conversation from udongein.xyz permalink -

@tchambers To an extent yes.
Paygating is generally awful for access and does lead to people falling back on worse options.
It's quite possible the clone will slop more features faster, though it will still remain unethical and untrustworthy.
If the only option that isn't unaffordable is the untrustworthy one, then users are left with the choice of abstaining or coping with the untrustworthy option.
This is why people used cracked proprietary malware/software despite the considerable risk of it having additional malware features added in.

@tchambers > Users trust the true developer to innovate and iterate faster than a clone can keep up.
Absolutely not. That's completely missing the point.
A person has intentionality and various measures of reliability the proprietary malware tools do not.

@enigmatico I think the argument is silly though.
Why does knowing reality is false matter at all?

@icedquinn @mia @navi > dhall wanted to use it to avoid being reliant on github, but claimed latency was problematic. they went to github dependence.
That's kind of a mismatch of purpose. Uneven zero-guarantees seeding should be used for high-latency/delay-tolerant purposes more so than anything that requires immediacy.
> buttcoiners dropped out of ipfs when the NFT astroturfing failed.
That's good they're not welcome.
> its still a neat piece of tech but something about the tree model needs to be refactored for it to be useful (there are some attempts to make a new ipfs that does that; i'm not convinced they will succeed.)

@mia @navi Last I checked IPFS' main problem was the lack of an anonymization layer.

Sometimes my brain has funny ideas.
For about half an hour the other day I had the amusing misconception switching endianness would require full mirroring of the bytes.
I'm also almost certain I've either posted or read something similar (of someone having this experience) on Fedi.In conversation from udongein.xyz permalink -

While that's wrong and it's solely relevant for multi-byte values, I'm now wondering how weird it would be if that was actually the case and what could've led to such a thing happening for real.
