there was already a proposed thing called ipv4+, and it’s completely insane. if you know anything about network infrastructure the entire chain is hilarious.

definition of “inflammatory food” please? all i can see online is “everything that’s not good for you”

oh boy here we go

blev tipsad av en kompis som håller på med speedrunning. vi är några som brukar ha spelkväll nån gång i månaden mest för att ha en ursäkt att snacka skit och hålla igång bekantskapen, och ett av problemen vi alltid har är “vad spelar vi idag?”. archipelago löser det genom att alla får spela vad de vill.

beror ju på vad du vill ha. story? pussel? strategi? action?

sitter just nu och väntar på timberborn 1.0 så jag kan få min citybuilder-fix igen. funderar på att börja med oxygen not included igen av samma anledning.

körde igenom 20 small mazes igår för pusseltarmens skull. helt lagom med en timmes total speltid.

annars har archipelago-communityt fått mig att gå tillbaka till gamla spel för nya features. håller på att mixtra med att försöka få igång star wars episode 1 racer med archipelago till helgens session.

weeeeell, ish. the big thing with the alto and the star was that the entire system was a live image that could be edited as it ran, and where every object was homogeneous enough to be put into any part of the system.

no, see the important part is to get xerox to be a major player in the graphical minicomputer industry while it was still important, so that the world of guis would all be based on their paradigm with instant editability and deep interconnection.

oops, yeah.

it definitely would not.

yeah the frames are different but that doesn’t matter to 99.9% of people.

oh god, the nightmare that “adding a fifth number” would be

ipv4 is a 32-bit number, which means the total number of possible addresses are 2³² = 4 294 967 296, which is waaaaay less than the amount of computers we have today. ipv6 is a 128-bit number, so the total is 2¹²⁸ = 340 282 366 920 938 463 463 374 607 431 768 211 456, which is more than all the grains of sand on earth.

the only thing i’ve heard people don’t like about ipv6 is that the addresses are longer and have letters in them.

i’d have blocked steve jobs from visiting xerox PARC.

the nordic systems are based on popular sovereignty by proportional representation, which lies in opposition to separation of power.

no, not every democracy. every government performs those roles but they are not all split the same way. the nordic countries are single-branch and he chinese government has many more than three.

because it’s full of yes men?

No branch of government should be allowed to accumulate too much power.

tell me you’re from the us without telling me you’re from the us. what’s a “branch of government”?

only if all actors are working in good faith.

doesn’t necessarily need to be short for North Atlantic, could be Not America’s no. 2
