One of my favourite satirical scenes comes from My Fair Lady (Pygmalion). The Ascot Gavotte. What a frenzied moment that was.

Spoilers? In passing, I keep hearing about anime bans. I’ve been out the loop for years and glanced at some of what’s trending today.
Cosmopolitan satire?
There’s a certain “To Be Hero X”.
Everyone’s on an app called . The top 10 heroes
infight for the #1 title, X. The current X, at the snap of a finger can do
anything (in many animated dimensions), but just wants normalcy.
Heroes are ranked by trust scores, and their powers spun up by their fans. There’s one hero who has to smile, another standing firm, and one mister nice. Then, there’s that sole anti-hero on FOMO trying to expose everyone as frauds. The social satire in this, is as hilariously off the wall as its animation.

I’ve never wanted to try this tricky oneliner. But, it happened anyway. The sudo chmod -R 777 /; better known as the (executive) cheat-mod recursive triple 7 root.
It’s like winning the lottery, like using pass as the word, deleting the anti in virus, setting the walls on fire, putting the security in obscurity, and then executing everything…

Have any of you ever heard of Reader Rabbit (embed)? I’ve been going through some old physical media. It was a simpler time.

I’ll be 502’ing my repositories for a bit. Use private or public mirrors in the mean time. Most of the stuff on there is in sloppy mode, so you won’t miss them.
I can eat goofy bot traffic, but my curiosity wants to be satisfied and I’m
itching to do some data gathering and analysis. It turns out that sending a
blanket 502 causes the metadata to arrive even faster (bots go crazy).
One of the glorious things about self hosting truly personal stuff, is that you can just turn off your server(s). There is no pressure to keep anything up.

I helped someone with a tmux
config. It’s been a while since I’ve used tmux but I’ve since realized it’s
better to copy paste tmux list-keys into tmux.conf and reset all
shortcuts (for debugging).
tmux list-keysThe help menu
(tmux list-keys -N) displays shortcuts with bind-key -N "description".

Turns out (rather gleefully) that I was proven wrong. Spooky competition did its thing and now I have two fiber links. One is symmetrical.
I think should compete more strategically with Starlink by looking into WISPs (fixed wireless + WiGig). Many of the out islands have limited to no banking. At home, everyone’s best friends with Starlink.

Sandboxing in systemd? I would’ve shown my (somewhat manual) method but then I was strolling through the GitHub and saw shh (systemd hardening helper). It uses strace to generate suggestions. You’ll need to be extremely careful, playing inside a sandbox summons debugging hell. I tried it briefly.

I’ve been catching up. Speed-reading two years worth of tech media is like reading about a war at 10x the speed. You have four quotes in your quiver (this is a math problem now). At what angle(s) would you draw your title bow to inflict the greatest pangs of outrage?
Quotes:
Today, A.I. solutions are being deployed across companies to help tackle the kind of tasks most people find repetitive, which frees up employees to take on higher-value work.
It is our job to create computing technology such that nobody has to program and that the programming language is human.
I am of the opinion that AI can already do all of the jobs that we, as humans, do. It’s just a question of how we apply it and use it.
But the more advanced models that are available now to companies, they can code better than, let’s call it 60%/70% of coders now … The best coders will be able to use these tools to augment what they already do.

I’ve gotten used to hearing a certain phrase. “You can’t trust the ” to not make mistakes. That’s how you know; they kind of did it. Imagine there’s a box and that box is orange.
Someone takes that orange box, calls it a black box, declares that orange is the new black, points to another orange box and tells you to open up that black box. Can you … no questions asked? If so, then you might have mathematical powers (or color blindness).
I was thinking the other day that when I first saw , my initial question was, “Why is everything not important?” And, I was told that’s not (not) important. Shared abstractions; they drive on parkways and park on driveways.
