    @lain That's new to me. And I lost 20 bitcoins, worth $8K at the time, to the collapse of MtGox. It's just about to be paid out of the Japanese bankruptcy account.

    @cliffwade Satisfied with an election? No such thing. I don't want there to BE any elections. No rulers. But so far, the tyrants in DC haven't interfered with my life, other than extorting taxes periodically. I'd love to not have to live with an extortion and counterfeiting racket, but that doesn't appear to be one of my choices right now.

    A chronological timeline of those you follow is very useful. Yes, it’s nice to have algorithms to choose other posts. You should be able to write your own, and display 10 at once, in columns.

    @Lana Not how loans work. You get money. You agree to pay an amount every month for however many years. The total paid never enters into discussion. You already agreed to pay. That agreement may have been utter stupidity on your part, but you agreed. Now you pay. End of story.

    @mkultra @Tfmonkey Sexual abstinence needs to be taught, and enforced with an iron staff. When God said, "Be fruitful and multiply," He wasn't just giving advice, He built that into the biology. We literally can't help being fruitful and multiplying, without a huge input of will. The nuclear family is a nice way to package that, choosing to be fruitful and multiply with only a single person of the opposite sex. But other ways of doing it aren't necessarily bad, just because some old book says so.

    No harm? Done in private with consenting adults? No foul.

    Involve children, though, and we should be talking about a capital offense.

    I wonder if classical music works better than a 15kHz tone. It admits those who tolerate it, which would include some young folks who can hear the tone. I'll bet the tone works better for shoplifters, but it excludes many good customers.

    Did they teach you bad anger management skills in Navy Seals training? Getting killing mad over some bimbos comments on the internet is a total waste of your skills, assuming you actually have any.

    @alex I hadn't noticed that before. Kiwi Farms is on the Ace of Diamonds in my deck. Both the kiwifarms.net forums and the kiwifarms.cc fediverse server are down for me today, though both domains exist, and have DNS addresses. The forums have been up recently, but the fediverse server was up for only a short time a few months ago. CloudFlare's ban appears to have mostly worked.

      I can set ditto.pub as server in mammudeck.com, but I can't log in from there. I need to create a Mastodon account on ditto.pub. It needs to (optionally)...

    @alex I can connect #mammudeck to ditto.pub, but I can't validate there. I guess I need one of the helper background apps for that. Will investigate, and report back, or you can just tell me where to start. Please?

    @alex Most TCP protocols have a client/server nature. The client connects, sends a request to the server, the server sometimes changes some internal state, then sends a response to the client. Even HTTP allows a connection to remain open after that, for sending further commands. Other than the initial request to connect and go to WebSocket mode, WebSockets have no concept of client and server. Each participant sends stuff, and the other reads and acts on it, sometimes sending something back.

    The Twitter algorithm is interesting, because it shows you posts you wouldn't otherwise see. In Mastodon/Soapbox, the best you can do is the Federated/Fediverse feed, but that shows you everything, instead. of just posts related to people you follow, so it's too much on a big server. Twitter made a good choice, IMHO, to have "For you" (algorithm) and "Following" feeds, but I think it's still nice to have the firehose, Federated/Fediverse feed.

    @lain Took taking off the glasses and holding my head real close, but now I see.

    I worked for a few years (1984-1986) at Thinking Machines Corporation (TMC), Danny Hillis's company that made the Connection Machine (CM), 64K one-bit processors, connected by a hypercube. 4K red LEDs on one side of a black cube with 5-foot long edges. They were initially named after Gods, until marketing caught wind of a CM named Ba'al.

    We designed and tested the Connection Machine from Symbolics Lisp Machines. Those were $70K personal computers, all networked together. There were 30 or so of them at TMC, all named after saints.

    Brewster Kahle, who went on to create archive.org, after his stint at TMC, often stood behind me while telling me something he wanted me to add to the circuit simulator, and rubbed my shoulders. I was very happy to do whatever he wanted (but neither of us swing that way, so all he wanted was code).
