Why not complain about both? Industrial civilization is inherently unsustainable, no matter how you try to power it.
I didn't have access to a 486 until around 1999. I was making do with a hand-me-down 8088 and then a 386SX. Back then, 10 years of technological advancement made a huge difference. Today, you can get by just fine with a…
I haven't noticed any bad actor traffic. Perhaps yggdrasil is still too obscure to bother attacking. The stationary nodes are connected to several public yggdrasil peers that are geographically close by. The routing…
I share that sentiment. I've thought about combining yggdrasil with garage to create a sort of plug-and-play distributed storage pool shared with a trusted circle. Though I wonder if the network routing would break down…
Yes. All you have to do is whitelist your clients' yggdrasil addresses in your firewall. in pf syntax: table <yggdrasil> persist file "/etc/yggdrasil-allowed" pass in quick on tun0 inet6 proto tcp from <yggdrasil> to…
It's been working well for me as a kind of poor-man's tailscale, connecting several VPS and several laptops.
So, your dating photos were going to a government contractor involved with AI killer drone technology. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarifai#Military_work
She ran for President in 2024. Where were you?
There are tipping points, when warming accelerates and becomes irreversible. There’s some debate in “the science” about how quickly we’ll reach that point. Limiting warming to +2°C was not a scientific position; it was…
Objects in Garage are broken up into 1MB (default) blocks, and compressed with zstandard. So, it would be difficult to reconstruct the files. I don't know if that was a recent change since you looked at it.…
Garage works well for its limited feature set, but it doesn't have very active development. Apparently they're working on a management UI. Seaweedfs is more mature and has many interfaces (S3, webdav, SFTP, REST, fuse…
I use a slow cellular connection and noticed some apple service (I could never figure out which one, even after installing an outgoing firewall) was aggressively uploading some large blob every time the mac woke from…
Where I live, permits are only given to licensed plumbers, and all work on plumbing requires a permit (though I’m sure many people ignore the rule).
You’re wasting your time fighting a straw man. I never said all regulations are bad. The question was why plumbers are expensive. I assert that it’s not because plumbing is especially difficult.
Designing sewage infrastructure isn’t rocket science, either. If citizens in your town needed to do it, they could figure it out, regardless of their credentials. Sometimes regulations come about to protect the public.…
Plumbers make excellent money because regulations require licensed plumbers to do the work, and plumbing unions have a financial interest in limiting the number of plumbers. But anybody can do plumbing. It’s not rocket…
Use `concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor` to submit jobs, and `Future.add_done_callback` to flip the transcription field when the job completes.
In 10 years, resource, energy limits, and wealth inequality will become increasingly clear to everyone, while the climate continues to warm at an accelerated rate. Social instability might preclude the existence of…
The system was already authoritarian, if less blatant to most people. Any meaningful resistance to the power structure gets crushed, and everyone tacitly accepts that arrangement.
Are you referring to the climate and ecological crisis, or the many cascading problems resulting from overextraction of limited resources? There won't be any tech on a dead planet.
Yes, it would be wonderful to be able to tune out the wretched poor people. Maybe a future headset will include a forcefield to actively repel potential muggers or oncoming vehicles.
The top photo has a blue-green cast, whereas the bottom photo has a magenta cast. Maybe the bottom one is a more realistic reproduction of the scene, but I also prefer the top one, which is more saturated and closer to…
This can’t be all of the rules. Where are the instructions about avoiding controversial topics?
You didn’t address anything I said. It takes a lot more than raw uranium or thorium to electrify all of our infrastructure.
Here's another exponential trend. It's showing no sign of slowing down, despite the exponential increase in solar power. (Gosh, I wonder why) https://scripps.ucsd.edu/bluemoon/co2_400/co2_2k_ce.png
