Hello there!
I boost a lot of posts, but I have a few things to say every now and then.
I am largely fine with boosting posts from people I disagree with even on significant, dividing issues. I usually don't, however, if they actively advocate for these ideas... so it goes :/

@indie1337@vivaldi.net @Big_Diggity That's actually a really neat idea. It could demonstrate to welcomed non-believers what everything is really about. Many fear *dying*, but Christians don't fear *death*.
@indie1337@vivaldi.net No problemo, thanks back!

With the return of Emotet, people should be on the lookout for malicious emails, even if they appear to come from trusted sources, call the target by name, and include previously sent and received emails. https://trib.al/2lyR6kS #press
@Big_Diggity Did you join them? "LOVE... YOUR... NEIGHBOR!!"
@indie1337@vivaldi.net Oh shoot I didn't see this... welcome back :D

I miss the time where no one branded themselves on the internet.
When people were just their goofy selves and didn’t take everything so seriously.
When social media was a public square and not pay-to-play arena.
When it paid to be human rather than some marketed version of human.
But everyone I’ve seen do this gets pushed out.
Because that sort of content doesn’t pay and money runs the world… maybe mastodon can evade this 🤞
@CM30 That's understandable. Enjoy your hiatus :)
@voxel@masto.ai "Generally", eh?
@RL_Dane I get the feeling. Even though I'm a, uh, young whippersnapper, I've messed around with old computers and I miss them. Just raw computer, neither backdoored nor "smart".
@RL_Dane I saw that - 100 lines; unbelievable.
Still though... something about running something as small, old-school and implementable as the UXN CPU on bare hardware... is so perfect
@RL_Dane Another thing. I wonder what it would be like to run UXN (or other homebrewn small ISAs) code on an FPGA?
(At "implement it" I was talking about the VM)
@RL_Dane And taking it further, I could implement it as an EFI executable and run it on bare metal. Sure, the actual OS would be interpreted but it would be really neat.
@RL_Dane I've dabbled in UXN. I was thinking about making an OS for UXN, but 64KiB and other limitations of it have turned me against the idea of implementing my dream OS in it. I've had ideas for a while....
On and off I work on my own instruction set architecture. UXN was the final boost that got me to get it to a semi-reasonable place.
Perhaps I'll finish up that ISA's design and implement a VM for it. Then, I could make a little OS for it.
@RL_Dane Have you ever considered trying your hand at making your own OS ;)

Fascinating story: https://www.politico.com/news/2023/03/07/privacy-loophole-ring-doorbell-00084979
At first the police just wanted two hours of footage from this guy's doorbell Ring cam.
"It was just the beginning.
They asked for more footage, now from the entire day’s worth of records. And a week later, Larkin received a notice from Ring itself: The company had received a warrant, signed by a local judge. The notice informed him it was obligated to send footage from more than 20 cameras — whether or not Larkin was willing to share it himself."

I just got a really cool idea -
Why don't I go live this weekend via, perhaps, PCM audio at golemwire.com:10002? You could use parec and pacat and netcat to "tune in" to the port and we could have a live chat only for anyone who has the technical know-how to connect!
And maybe if you want to hide your voice - well, you get to figure that out. Pipe through espeak maybe?
I have a friend who started a #blog recently. Want to check it out? It's https://kiltedpatriotatheart.blogspot.com/.
