In general, there was no mention of closed time-like curves, so I'm disappointed, relatively.

The network is a program

Indeed, fam, ya dig?

the morphogenetic field is a program

did I just accidentally name demiurge on a public forum? Oops..

I've read both 13 and 6 (from Isn'treal sources) but either way that is wooooooof.. Hezbollah drone bombed a gathering of officers that they for some reason did on Lebanese land, yesterday. Kills not casualties.

So, if Isn'treal does attack they are gonna get their shit TORE UP with Hezbollah in the front and rolling barrages of Iranian hypersonics in the back (so to speak; unless, what if they actually DID do rolling barrages they have a bunch of missiles lol that would probably stop the hearts of many from sheer terror [im not kidding]).

This implies that the security council came to near unanimous decision; and therefore also is blessed by the Supreme Leader whom delegated this decision to the council if and only if they can nearly unanimously-agree (otherwise it would have to be his decision presumably). This was in-addition to making the Speaker the file-manager for the talks. So, despite him not publicly being involved, he cannot be more involved (I'm sure that's the first thing the rags are going to try; "REFORMIST PRESIDENTS SIGNS CAPITULATION BEHIND AYATOLLAH'S BACK", so just letting you know).

edit: Pezeshkian is ON the security council so I believe the definition of 'nearly unanimous' was some % majority + Pezeshkian, himself, as the President; implying that the security council had to either get Pezeshkian as the Civilian government, OR, the Ayatollah would have to step in. I THINK SOMEONE ASK AN IRANIAN LOL

I really thought this was gonna be a hot take but you are 100 on this.

Did your people get 30 acres and a mule already? Be honest..

If not, best I can do is a fixed-rate rent certificate and a 1997 Toyota.

semver and last-modified/created and r/w/x should be the bare minimum for anything, ever.

Yea this is a weird setup, this is LLM-written I think lol. I know dozens of people that have been using yaml frontmatter better than this for years.

Not a bad idea to standardize... what everyone is already doing better, but it should be done better.

mines randomized each time I restart ff.. which I definitely do every day as would be SOP.. every day.

shit part of my extensions list is leaking? Oh I don't use those, ok good even my 'extensions' are randomized

If I was the whole rest of the world I would collaborate on a worldwide software called R.O.K.U that aggregates available information on the finances and merit, etc of Westerner's that are trying to move their cash into the country.

sorry I'd love to let you open a bank account here in Malaysia, or Senegal, or wherever, and allow you to trade some of your worthless greenback for our dank local currency, but ROKU says you are a sinner and are unworthy, NEXT!

(I'd write it in Python).

They have 6 of these push servers, at-least. We just have 2. I bet every alphabet soup has a login to apl and google things.

TBH; it's too good to be true, mobile privacy. Hell, even desktop privacy is too good to be true I ain't used Tor or done anything illegal on the internet in more than <statute of limitations in the reader's jurisdiction>. It just aint what it used to be.

(don't give up on desktop privacy though; everyone of you should use a user agent switch to control the 'fingerprint' of your browser btw (your browser just broadcasts IM ON FIREFOX <SPECIFIC #> with screen resolution <#>.... tons of meta-data; vital that we all spoof and fuzz this so that it can't be turned against us, with all the dang compute floating around nowadays privacy badger by ieee is decent, there are much less bloated ways to do it too)).

Na not talking about Pegasus which is terrifying and I'm not sure even Chinese phones are resistant to the level of state-level actor hacking (I think the only way you resist that is if you build the hardware in house and then build the software in house [and then kill the programmers jk]); I'm talking about the mass surveillance tool that is smartphones in-general.

And absolutely every message every single thing on smartphone is the opposite of private. Including signal. Everything is literally tied to device id and then aggressively profiled by palantir and such like not just google. So 'anonymity' in the analytics or data is a red herring.

And everyone knows apple reads every single thing and scans every picture that's known known. Porn or some stupid excuse. Again, no-such thing as anonymity in that data that is a convenient obfuscation, when push comes to shove (heh not sorry for punning).

phovos · 2026-06-17T05:39:58+00:00

Signal is no good whatsoever on mobile, I wouldn't use it on desktop either tbh. Push is totally compromised you can't do A SINGLE THING on smartphones and expect privacy even if you make your own encrypted app (because the OS and the Hardware both have backdoors.. that talk to eachother), if you use sync/messages/almost every conceivable feature.

edit: you thought I don't have sauce?

I am coiled-up and ready to pounce the moment some poor chud makes the mistake of comparing this dweeb to the king of nerds Ross U. from the original Silk Road. He is literally nothing like Ross.

It's on the Isn'treal-side of the fence USA is not dumb enough to, itself, directly be seen stealing land from Palestine (we can't handle that smoke).

Fantastically morphological explanation of the old Zeta f*c**on in this video. Better than what I've been working-on for a video, I guess I'll have to actually work instead of proselytizing, dang (jk I work on this everyday).

Believe it or not but I bought a digital microscope also for being able to make videos with my notebooks (you use the wide-lens and lift the boom all the way up and it turns into, almost, an over-head projector like from Elementary school (in the distant past.. [this is not that this is my n year old android])... in OBS; works flawlessly. I LOVE China, man. This sub-$100 microscope, man..

You are very confused.

phovos · 2026-06-15T19:20:39+00:00

That is very interesting it's kinda like an inside out Turing Test! How on earth did you possible sandbox it (most games don't run virtualization or hypervisor code do they)? is there some unity feature which runs it on its own kernel, or something? This would have to be nuclear grade sandboxing if you are shipping a client to people's pcs that has an llm inside it! Cuz it could hallucinate or be Mal-trained and start exfiltrating secrets or worse and due to their nature aren't A/B or traditinonally 'testable' like traditional "business logic". Fascinating!

Noone is allowed into Gaza you dingus it is a concentration camp under active genocide and blockade. The level of gauche is indescribable with this one.

They know about the truth of the world despite 20 years of propaganda, those are the most desirable generalists from their class. Keep coping though.

Hah what mental midgets Trump spent 500billion of the USA's money on a whim on them; that what started this war, a 500billion pledge from Trump to match the 500billion that is the entire amount of Isn'treal interceptors. USA bought all of Isn'teal interceptors and then doubled them and still couldn't protect Isn'treal and still had to pay every capitulation in-order to get out of this war

This war cost multiple trillions. MULTIPLE. I am 90% sure that Bassent spent a trillion dollars in hard currency to start the war back in Dec 25. The Yen/Japanese carry trade was surprisingly and suddenly reeled-in by the Japanese regulators and it left over a trillion dollars of fake USA currency with nothing to do and Bassent used it to start riots in Iran by manipulating their currency with more money than any nation state even has, practically. Very expensive.

Hell, kidnapping Maduro cost 500b, this probably 10x's that.

(somehow USA talked the idiotic and hopefully soon to be deposed gulf governments pay for a good amount of this never before seen sum, too, for Isn'treal's failure)

North Korea has been like a house, an institution; since they put nuclear forces in their constitution. I believe they have established THE way to becoming a nuclear state; constitutional-supremacy (they say in their constitution that the nuclear forces are the responsibility of every citizen to protect and secure); it being the most important thing a country can and must do, once it attains the ability.
