apparently you can use network sockets for inter-process communication if you
just set the network to your home and the ports that are set to the defaults
that people who know what software you use will know to listen on when they've
hacked any single device on your network. good thing that data is with the
router, right?
what if there was a stop before leaving the computer?

Linux is great! It can do anything you want it to.
Except that thing you want it to do. Why don't you go fix it? It's not hard,
all you have to do is run these configure files or operate this doohickey and
BAM suddenly you got apes writing machine gun regulation software
[I don't think those two things are related]

wao I'm a cool kid _^
Hmmmm I googled "Network: file exists" and got this link:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1340713
my understanding of that is that maybe you're creating static routes, and for
some reason you're trying to create one that already exists? Maybe there's
something in your .bashrc config, if the file appears when you open a
terminal, or perhaps if it appears randomly then maybe there's a service or
something that's doing it.
Did you say it stopped when you swapped sim cards? ... on your phone? that's
bizzare... Maybe you were trying to create an ip route (whatever that is) that
was pointing to the same ip address as your phone? and when you swapped sims
it changed the ip address? If it appears again, maybe try setting static IP
addresses for both the phone and the computer in your router settings and see
if that fixes it. Though if you've ever seen the error while out and about at
like, a coffee shop or library or whatever, then that wouldn't apply since the
router is only for home base...

the most important skill I can think of for a linux software engineer is the
ability to connect multiple systems together and turn windows and macintosh
devices into Linux devices so that datacenters can be built out of whatever's
on the around.
there's this programming language I like called Chapel for distributed
computation computing which is also cool, if you're more of the programming
type.
networking security I believe often has hardware solutions, so getting the
crypto-graphy boys and the PCB girls together to work on some jams is a good
and productively useful gathering of insightful events
"but ritz computers should only be used to solve problems that people have,
not make more problems!" ah yes but have you considered that problems find

alternatively, when you initiate an SSH session it sends you a randomized
public key whose private key is the password that you need to login. By
decrypting the string of text it sent you and sending it back (plus the
password at the end or whatever) you can ensure secure authentication without
bothering with the passwordless keys which are wayyyyyy more trouble than
they're worth and lack the "something you know" authentication method.

you know how SSH password login is deprecated because the password needs to be
transmitted in cleartext or whatever?
what if we just... required two passwords?
the first initiates the conversation, and sets up an encrypted line. It
doesn't matter if anyone sees the first password because they'll get a new set
of encrypted keys, meaning each session automatically is encrypted in a
different, randomized way.
the second password is the one that actually authenticates you.

BRB, if you want to talk to yourselfs, I recommend opening a port in your
router and exchanging HTTP packets that create messages on each other's
computers. Can be done in a couple hundred lines of C code that can be 90%
premade or auto-generated. Then, once it's made, you don't have to think about
it again because it's so simple. It's not trying to scale, it's just...

there are plenty of pieces of linux that are insecure in some way. Including
x11, if I remember correctly. It is purely convention to not abuse these
insecurities, and whenever you use someone else's binary software you trust
that they won't betray you in some way.
pre-built binaries are privacy violations and should be illegal. They are
security threats because the model they're built upon is necessarily insecure.
Computers will never be completely secure because of how they are built, and
so we should use locally compiled software and interpreted scripts.
Unless they're too long, or impossible to read. Who reads EULAs these days? At
least those are written in english.
maybe computers aren't worth it. Maybe computers will solve all our problems.
Who can say, maybe you should ask an oracle like me
though do remember that anything you hear can and will be used against you,
monkey's paw style. So maybe, like... don't? unless you're into magic or
schizophrenia or something

Society has never been secure. Literally all someone has to do is place
documents alleging that you sold all your shares or refinanced your mortgage

don't get why people trust their neighbors so much? You don't know them!
well, I guess it'd be hard to function as a society if you didn't. Sure would
be nice if we had like, a communal Mastodon server run on public
infrastructure owned only by the people who lived in the closest 70 houses.
Sure would be nice if you could connect to one of like, 4 in your area. Then,
if they each held communal events where they meet and hang out with each
other. Only like, 2 or 3 though so you can get a solid grasp of what their
culture's like.

LLMs can't do math. Duh. That's like asking an "if check" to do recursion.
What he should have done is had the AI output the requested calculation as
JSON or something and use a calculator function call with the specified
arguments instead of trying to memorize every answer. But that requires more
functionality that has no reason to exist if your only goal is to be a tech
bro and build up a vacuous product that exists only to be hoovered up by
Google or Microsoft.
We could build such beautiful things if we just dethroned those giants. They

I know you don't want to hear this, but there is a chance that there will come
a time where your life depends on your ability to debug a computer without the
internet. To set up an SSH server. To install Linux. To program in C. To do
something else that I'm not prepared for... If StackOverflow didn't exist
because network connectivity has been lost, could you remember syntax? Maybe
it's a good idea to set up a local LLM that can answer basic questions about
technology. Maybe it's a good idea to set up on your parents computer, just in
case you have to hide out there for a couple months. Maybe it's a good idea to
download wikipedia, just in case.

hey, I'm working on a project. Might need some python, I tend to prefer Lua
but it's pretty similar. It uses fediverse software and cheap hardware, think
raspberry pi's except risc-v
also it might use distributed local LLMs not to generate text, that's garbo
and lame and stupid. Instead it uses them to transform text, maybe even
translate text, into a more summarized form. Intentionally losing data, like a
jpeg compression but for text.
Might need some python for that. To glue it all together. The "distributed"
part is a whitelist, so we'd need to write that too. Various small little
utilities like that for connectivity.
oh also there's a one-way ethernet cable that connects two of the boards so
we'd need to store some information (easy) and send some UDP packets (hard)
anyway it's pretty neat, lmk if you want my contact details and I can tell you
about it. I might even be able to pay you.

kinda wanna make a linux distro that has all the capabilities of a GUI distro
and isn't so minimal (like screen recording, calculator, screenshot, wifi
manager, etc etc) but with i3 instead of a desktop.
they could literally just be symlinks (shortcuts) to scripts that are in your
/usr/bin or whatever directory
seriously it's not like there's THAT many ways to use ffmpeg, why not just
write a script for them? that's what you're going to do when you use it for
the first time, anyway, so...

the fact that you have to configure your router in order to do any sort of
web-hosting at all is one of the fundamental reasons why the internet looks so
lame and corporate.
if anyone could download a program and start a gallery style file-server with
all their wedding pictures then why the fuck would you need to upload them to
imgur?
alas, people are too dumb to open ports. plus, every router has a different UI
design, so it's not like you can write a guide. What happened to making things
as easy as possible for the user?
"technical limitations" are failures of imagination. we can do better than
gatekeeping.

Coding superpower:
Start thread
While(true):
Run();
Then, whenever you want it to run something else, change the function pointer
that run() uses to call a function
At the end of the run() function, set the function pointer in the while loop
to the next one. That way you don't stack overflow from the recursion.

Don’t be fooled. Casting doubt about rigorous peer reviewed science
doesn’t mean you are just “asking questions,” it means you are a
conspiracy theorist.
or it means you're so remarkably ignorant that you shouldn't even be in the
room where people are talking about this.
Unless your questions are very basic. "can someone explain to me what XYZ term
means?" or "how long has this particular application method been in common
use?" that kind of thing. Even still, either do some basic research or
relinquish your decision making power until you understand.

a plan for this kind of thing with the people who care about you? Ah, well,
nobody cares about me like that. Just a couple normies who want nothing but
business as usual.
wonder if I can open up my hard drives to "read only" SSH access? Or maybe
I'll just make the important files into a torrent. Or perhaps marking them as
"downloadable locations" on Soulseek? Plenty of options, all of them require
someone to care enough about your junk to want to archive it. Something
something ipfs?

"why putting SSH on a port other than 22 is a bad idea"
https://www.adayinthelifeof.nl/2012/03/12/why-putting-ssh-on-another-port-than-
22-is-bad-idea/
"When you are logged onto a system as a non-root user you cannot create a
listing TCP or UDP port below 1024. This is because port numbers below 1024
are so-called privileged ports and can only be opened by root or processes
that are running as root."

I really do believe that you can write any computer program you'd like with a
combination of Lua, Bash, and C.
Bash to start the program and enable updates / configuration, Lua to handle
the scripting and ordering of events, and C (or Rust) to execute performance
intensive sections. (often in their own threads)

"so wait, she's just not a believer in the rent-economy?" nope I think rent is
too large of a portion of a person's budget, it prevents them from spending on
things that would enable them.
if landlords are too plentiful, their overall share will decrease. This has
been practiced over the ages and the truth always winds up on the streets.
homeless people often have just run away from home, with nothing but what they

cities should have private fountains in addition to public ones. With at least

anyway the text would "burn" into existence slowly and you had time after

Also separate idea but it'd be neat if there was like... a show or something

trying my best not to think about communism too much right now. Mostly because
I'm waiting for everyone to catch up... when the day comes when people stop
saying "based" and leaving it at that, then I'll make more theory. But as a
consequence of my queer nature I shall deliver such things in the form of an
insane twitter post on the fetlifeverse.
the world waits with bated breath in the eye of the storm. Nobody knows whats
coming, and everyone prays that it's nothing [short of revolution]
... I should probably go back to sleep, I just had to wake up and write about
linux or whatever...

what if Trump controlled x% of the land (according to electoral college votes)
and kamala controlled y% of the resources (according to popular vote) and they
each could do whatever they wanted there
the house and the senate in congress would function the same and unite the
two, but anything the president disagreed with they could veto for their
particular pieces of land and it would only affect their constituents.
why should we settle for anything less than legitimate representation,
unclouded by the division and spite?
if some combination of presidential vetos created an impossible situation,
then by law people weren't allowed to interface.

nothing you do on the internet will matter after the revolution. I don't care
how many backups you have, there's a zero percent chance that we'll be able to
figure out whose computer is whose after we've all moved around and given each
other names that don't correspond to the names of our family in states that we
lost.
it doesn't mean the internet is useless right now, it just means that you
should act as if you might not have it in the near future.
also, like... every computer has a password. which basically means that it's
useless unless you reflash it.
pain is temporary, and it is an excellent teacher. there will be pain, but...
we'll get over it.

... it's so the AI content scraping algorithm that inevitably trawls the
fediverse (or even just one server) knows the subject of the text / picture in
question. That way it can use past posts by other people to communicate with
specific "targets" if you will by saying "uhhh okay make this person feel
fine" and the AI's like "yeah sure I can do that hang on" and it posts real
posts by others with the modified profile picture, cadence, tone of voice,
personality, memories, whatever variables they want when compared to the
person they're playing in the conversation with the person or "target" if you
will that they're "target" if you will-ing.
... wait actually that's not the reason, what the hey. It's because that way
people who are uncomfortable being seen don't have to if they filter all that
out.
... Idk it's useful information for whatever filtering methods or reasons you
have. Content classification is important for both archival purposes and for

another simpler server? I don't know the complexity of the programs I use

style chat server that just... sends text from person A to person B depending
on their username (like a glorified Router or Switch)
