I just timed it: 59 seconds for my Raspberry Pi to boot, 33 of which is waiting for my keyboard firmware to initialize. That’s just absurd.
probably similar to solomonoff, just in the number of variables, and without the computability aspect (since we know that prop-formulas can be evaluated in exponential time)

Monero Maximalism: Or, How Bitcoin Is a 💩coin
Most normal people hear the word “cryptocurrency” and assume that means that they are “cryptic” or “private,“but that’s actually a huge, perhaps the hugest misunderstanding of our time and it has some big consequences.The “crypto” in cryptocurrency merely comes from its cryptographic nature.
When it comes to actual privacy, cryptocurrencies are an unmitigated … ⌘ Read more

Reviews of All Linux Distros (That Matter)
Firstly, once you reach basic competency in Linux, different distributions don’t matter. A lot of newbies analyze distros based on what they look like when you install them, often not realizing that it’s a pretty simple affair not just to change superficial things like your theme and setup, but entire desktop environments. Basically all distro reviews online are wastes of time for people who know what they’re doing. When I came to YouTube, all … ⌘ Read more

Livestream on PeerTube ONLY at 10AM New York time
As the title says, I’ll be livestreaming today on PeerTube only at this link.
I’ll talk about finishing my book reptinting project that you’re going to want to know about and perhaps “recent events” (several weeks late)
for example, on Richard Stallman.
I’ll read donations I get if you want to talk about other things.

https://Based.Cooking (non-bloated, non-soydev recipes and more)
Well, I figured that it’d be best and I go ahead and start a recipe site, since it came up. I’ll go ahead and tell you RSS chads.
It’s based.cooking (yes, apparently .cooking is a TLD nowadays).
The site isn’t much of a looker now. Just simple CSS, so feel free to open PRs with elegant improvements.
I don’t have much time today, so I’ll leave it to other people.

Wallpaper gray on LARBS?
If after a recent update, xwallpaper isn’t setting your wallpaper on boot in LARBS, it’s because xwallpaper is giving an error with the recent version of glibc.
There’s already an issue up about this on the xwallpaper Github and hopefully it will be fixed soon. Out of my control.
You can spend a little time learning alternate ways to set wallpapers in the meantime, or learn to love gray. ⌘ Read more

challenge for qualia relationism: it seems plausible that for a relation between two qualia to be established to actually create the quality of the experience, they should occur at near points in time. however, people in great pain don’t usually at the same time seem to recall memories of especially pleasurable moments.
Started the #gsoc application for Plan 9 yesterday morning; spun up a new cpu server last night; poking at it today. I miss being able to spend more time on this.

@prologic@twtxt.net I am trying to cut costs, so I deleted all my Digital Ocean droplets. For a month I will be using a free s390x VPS, so I needed to adapt some of my Docker images, scripts and configurations for that architecture. Also took another chance with Traefik Proxy, I ditched it long ago for nginx-proxy, but this time I made it work. #h5nn5tq

But then I moved. Moved to the big city, a place filled with people themselves big on compliments. My upbringing had left me underprepared for these changes. Even something as simple as receiving praise was complicated. There certainly were times when my soul would be lit up with joy. But other times, my feelings were murkier. The compliment left me feeling weirdly uncomfortable. How to Compliment | Less Penguiny
Actually, embedded agency is a super good name for a movement, and I could see it replacing the horrid ‘rationalism’ over time. Plus, ‘embags’ is a really good abbreviation.
