Build tool, package builder, package manager, configuration manager, and a distro built on those aspects. You can use any aspect indepently though

“Twitter users use child porn machine to make millions of images of child porn.” Would be accurate imho. Legally though AI generated works are owned by no one because the machine made it but cant own it.

I game on a server cpu on a server mb with rdimm memory shrug

When the bubble pops I’m down to make gaming pcs out of old AI nodes

Tell me about it. If you find a off the shelf built kit that works let me know so i dont have to build one too

Servers are just computers. You can game on the same hardware the form factor is easy to get around

The hunting cams all use cell modems, which honestly sucks (a subscription to pics on land near you…). Ive been looking at wifi halow (802.11ah) for it personally. Which can support low power longer range (km/miles long) at 4-40 mbs.

I can find m.2 modules that support it too(i.e. GW16167) so its just matter of SBC and camera choice from there to me. The RPI camera honestly seems pretty decent.

Does RENTING digital infrastructure from a company using their fully owned and controlled interfaces and contracts make you more of a tenant than an owner—locking you into their ecosystem, their rules, and their future decisions, rather than building on a foundation you truly control? If that company is heavly involved, head quarted, and ran out of a foreign country does it effect the soverignty of governments depending on it?

Well yeah, no fucking shit.

Who made me the genius I am today The mathematician that others all quote? Who’s the professor that made me that way The greatest that ever got chalk on his coat?

[Chorus] One man deserves the credit One man deserves the blame And Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky is his name Oy, Nicolai Ivanovich Lobach— [Interlude] I am never forget the day I first meet the great Lobachevsky In one word he told me secret of success in mathematics: Plagiarize

[Verse 1] Plagiarize Let no one else’s work evade your eyes Remember why the good Lord made your eyes So don’t shade your eyes But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize Only be sure always to call it please, “research”

[Chorus] And ever since I meet this man My life is not the same And Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky is his name Oy, Nicolai Ivanovich Lobach—

[Interlude] I am never forget the day I am given first original paper to write It was on analytic and algebraic topology Of locally Euclidean metrizations Of infinitely differentiable Riemannian manifolds Bozhe moy This I know, from nothing What I’m going to do I think of great Lobachevsky and get idea, haha [Verse 2] I have a friend in Minsk Who has a friend in Pinsk Whose friend in Omsk Has friend in Tomsk With friend in Akmolinsk His friend in Alexandrovsk Has friend in Petropavlovsk Whose friend somehow is solving now The problem in Dnepropetrovsk And when his work is done Haha, begins the un From Dnepropetrovsk to Petropavlovsk By way of Iliysk and over Novorossiysk To Alexandrovsk to Akmolinsk To Tomsk to Omsk To Pinsk to Minsk To me the news will run Yes, to me the news will run

[Verse 3] And then I write by morning, night And afternoon, and pretty soon My name in Dnepropetrovsk is cursed When he finds out I published first [Chorus] And who made me a big success And brought me wealth and fame? Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky is his name Oy, Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachev—

[Interlude] I am never forget the day my first book is published Every chapter I stole from somewhere else Index I copy from old Vladivostok telephone directory This book was sensational! Pravda—well, Pravda—Pravda said: “Zhil byl korol’ kogda-to, Pri nem blokha zhila”, it stinks But Izvestia! Izvestia said: “Ya idu kuda sam tsar’ idet peshkom”, it stinks Metro-Goldwyn-Moskva buys the movie rights for six million rubles Changing title to ‘The Eternal Triangle’ With Ingrid Bergman playing part of hypotenuse

[Chorus] And who deserves the credit? And who deserves the blame? Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky is his name Oy

What Matrix servers and clients don’t support e2ee?

I mean out of date software is going to lose compatabilty with encryption.

Proticols dont do any thing. Platforms/implementations do. Im not knocking XMPP, there are extentions that support e2e, I was just saying that is core to Matrix spec and thus every implementation.

Heck, I’d think Matrix, Nostr, and XMPP would better than email, which itself is better than shudders propritary “social” media, or plutocrat accounts like Google, Apple, or Microsoft.

I mean OIDC is the standard. SAML is the legacy. Email is just the current defacto messaging platform for accounts so I see no reason Matrix couldnt be.

ActivityPub isnt built for private data, nor IRC. XMPP can but again not its primary design focus.

The best case i can think of is that most of the big tech that IPOd probally helped more users even if they over all quality didnt go up. Kind of hard to measure though. IPO give the company cash but at the trade of stakeholders.

I can’t just call everything snake oil without some actual measurements and tests.

Naive cynicism is just as naive as blind optimism

“They” didn’t make the Internet. No single entity holds a singular plan for it let alone controls the destiny of it.

This a coop. An attempt to press the advantages and controls they have built for decades to gain further political influence. There are other factions though, and there always will be.

We may not be able to take it easy now, but we sure as hell can still take it back
