If you are using P2P file sharing software (besides bittorrent) please post links to the software with your opinion.

  • The fallacy is failing to understand the authoritarian spirit behind purported 'humanitarian' causes, especially those that involve using the deadly force of the state for funding. People who worship the idol of political power are generally lacking awareness of their own desire to boss others around. Failing to learn from history is part and parcel of the matter. Giving government ubiquitous control over the food supply has one result, and history has proved it a hundred times over. Complain all you want about greed in the market--government is near infinitely greedier.

    Many people have never heard of P2P file-sharing networks like DarkMX even though DarkMX and its predecessor, WinMX, have over two decades of continued development. P2P file-sharing networks are more

  • It is a solution in search of a problem. And it would create far more expensive problems than it proposes to solve. The Soviets already did this kind of thing--the same Soviets who deliberately starved millions to death with manufactured food shortages.

    The school cafeterias could remain open 24/7 for everyone. Sure, taxes would go up about 50% or so, but free sloppy joes would be well worth it, amirite?

  • Trump pardons Silk Road operator Ross Ulbricht

    "The pardon fulfills a campaign promise made to the president’s crypto diehards."

    "On Tuesday night, President Donald Trump issued a pardon to Ross Ulbricht, who ran the dark web marketplace Silk Road under the pseudonym “Dread Pirate Roberts.” Ulbricht has been serving a life sentence without parole since 2015, when he was convicted of multiple charges, including the distribution of narcotics."

    Full article lives at link below.

    I am looking for profiles to follow. Currently I am interested in following users who have an interest in or work in:

  • Got it. Thanks for the heads up. Fixed (I think).

  • Also, would this method work with Akkoma, or has it diverged from Pleroma enough to make this irrelevant?

  • Thanks. That was quick. I'll report back if I have any problems.

    How to install pleroma using sqlite instead of postgres?

  • If you are referring to MEGARAND, no. There is no need for that since all of that has already been done over the years for the underlying primitives:

    /dev/urandom ... b2sum ... shuf ... chacha20 ...

    These primitives have been run through the gauntlet for years and are known to produce or use very good entropy. Chacha20 is especially prized for this and taking already random data and running it through the chacha20 cipher with random keys and/or salts is a very nice hedge against patterns and biases. Megarand stretches these primitive outputs to build a much larger pool for wherever you might want a big initial pool for pads, tokens, seeds, whatever.

    If you're paranoid you can run dieharder tests on the output, but it would just be placebo at this point.

  • Thanks for the link. I see you're not far from the home of Iris DeMent. She's a treasure.

    Any southerner with a CamelCase SurName usually is special.

  • Nice cat. You caught the blue eyes with just the right amount of laser vision.

    How about a link to that podcast? If it has a RSS feed so much the better.

    My people are like this:

  • Elementary OS

  • I just now discovered this. I think I will have a gander.

  • I like seeing cool things done with BASH. Hat tip to the Greek letters.

  • The only bogus thing here is your baseless insinuation and false comparison.

    You are insinuating that MEGARAND is built upon Fortuna or a copycat thereof. That insinuation is false. By calling my work, 'bogus' you are casting a baseless barb, or a slander against my work.

    You are attempting to dissuade readers from examining the work by labeling it with a negative label. And you are also attempting to promote Fortuna instead, when Fortuna has nothing to do with my work. Anyone taking your false comment at face value would be dissuaded from reading my work.
