tfw I thought I had found a Rust-written, non-vibecoded implementation of Reticulum that's also hosted on Codeberg

....and now I think it's violating Codeberg's terms of usage :itfine:​

*checks espol*

*checks polling*

our politics keep simultaneously increasing the "holy shit this is hilarious" and "holy shit this is depressing" axes off the charts

current status: had some more fun with Reticulum, this time over low power LoRa :blobcatfluffowo:​

incredibly cool stuffs, even the cheaset garbage out there (e.g. LoRa32/Heltec) is capable of doing perfectly competent realtime chat

HOWEVER

everything falls apart as soon as you try to send large files or do streams — even something as simple as Codec2 calls can have huge packet loss and delays

tfw found a gaygay cute kemono artist on The Onion comments

impressive youtubing skills :blobcatfluffowo:​

"your honor, I know this company should be absolutely obliterated into smithereens for risking world war and total societal collapse, but don't you want to know what integers will they use next :blobcatfluffowo:​ "

the irony of me posting this

after the last boost is not lost on me btw

like, I don't want to destroy decades of knowledge and culture, this isn't the fascist kind of despise I was highlighting earlier (woozy)

but I also don't see the adoption of AI going well no matter what, and in fact the current overblown panic over infosec (or rather, how underscored security was until now) is proof of how AI-driven basic logic and feelings are becoming, and I refuse to partake in that

mrow :blobcatfluffowo:

the language used here is also toxic and potentially dehumanizing as well, Torvalds might not exactly a hero and he might have earned disproportionate power but holy shit calm down

this kind of rhetoric and action is not helpful

Torvalds had an UNIXy kernel that worked in cheap PCs faster than in actual workstations and servers of the time, and licensed it more openly than e.g. MINIX while creating a USENET community that happily took what he started from his own skill

as limited as his merit is, that's not literally the same as vibecoding the shit out of everything

with all due respect and disgust for LLM stuff,

I have to say that's the kind of centrist statement I think no one will like from either side, but his fanbase is just so forgiving of him at this point that it probably won't be a huge controversy or anything

he's acting like a Dolly of sorts, but techbro version I guess

oh how cute, he's saying things like the abortion debate are philosophical differences and thus not unambiguously evil, and using terms like "gender identity" to make it sound like he's not a transphobe, how cute https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1yo7_-bI-o

okay so here's a video for normies if you want to explain to them what's going on as simply and efficiently as possible https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTL5trfjrdc

okay let me sum up:

• CIS (Spanish government polling agency) shows a massive surge in PSOE vote, even when adjusting for their typical ~3% bias https://electomania.es/barometro-del-cis-oct26-la-izquierda-se-dispara-con-el-psoe-en-el-34/
• CEO (Catalan government polling agency) shows ERC and PSC (PSOE) fighting for first place: https://electomania.es/encuesta-cataluna-ceo-14-oct-erc-y-alianca-catalana-pelean-por-la-segunda-posicion/
• Colau and Sumar are desperate to include Podemos on their coalition: https://elpais.com/espana/catalunya/2026-10-14/colau-ofrece-renunciar-a-su-candidatura-y-cambiar-el-nombre-de-frente-amplio-para-lograr-la-unidad-con-podemos.html
• Puigdemont is finally free, that only took like 9 years damn https://elpais.com/espana/2026-10-14/ultima-hora-de-la-actualidad-politica-en-directo.html
