Just another voice yelling in the void.

I’ve probably protested for your rights. I’m definitely on at least one list.

I believe firmly that everyone should have a fair shake and as much freedom as they can be afforded - so long as it does not encroach on the freedoms of others.

Occasionally a wordy cunt who will type a book when a sentence or two will suffice.

  • In a shock to absolutely not a single person who has had to “hand craft” and maintain code… Its hard enough maintaining shit you wrote last week let alone adapting or collaborating on stuff you didn’t.

    … so people who shit out recycled code from other people passed through a randomization algo are totally lost from step one. And easy come… easy go.

    Oh I need to maintain this? Oh the magic box can’t do it? Technical debt?! Oh, I’m bored now… guess I’ll go inject my brilliance somewhere else.

    If you have something you are recognized for… you will cling desperately to it. Comedian? Forever chasing their best show. Sports legends hanging around too long. Its pretty human to want recognition… even if part of it is genetics and youth. Time is the great equaliser.

    In the end - if the odd rituals, diets, and surgery leaves them feeling happy… let them have it. Being pretty and famous is almost a monkeys paw. Sure, everyone ages - but you get to age on a pedestal. There initially for your broad appeal… and then on public display as everyone gets to get their shots in as that youthful glow fades. Ick. I wouldn’t want it to be me.



  • I find that outside of chasing diminishing returns - the biggest boost to upload speeds generally involves getting service that isn’t from spectrum or comcast.

    The speeds you are suggesting seem to imply you are on some cable carrier. Be consciously aware that there is frequently fine print stating up to on your meager upload allotment. You may be optimising against unseen forces.

    It looks like you put in some effort on tuning which is awesome - and hopefully is helpful to some as a starting point… but from experience tuning is often very unique to each individual setup. That said: kudos on drawing that much out of your setup.

    We do not steal hats. We share them. We teach fraternity and knowledge. We are balance. We are believers in open and free markets. We remain curious, unbridled, and fly no colors.

    In time: we may be the only capable navigators of a sea rife with giants and uncouth countries.

    We privateers may well be stealing history back from those who would destroy it.

    Yo ho my hearties.

    Take what you can …







  • Certainly not.

    The first time I read how to make thermite, smoke bombs, etc… I definitely was too young to fully work out the ramifications of my actions.

    With that said: how many people ignore warnings that are clearly posted? That’s a human flaw. It’s not age gated. Needing to see for ourselves that the stove is hot sometimes is the only way we learn. Acknowledging this - does it mean we shouldn’t provide the knowledge because somone may do something stupid? I don’t believe that should be the case.

    In short: people are going to do dumb shit - but I don’t think that means we need to over engineer the world to protect them from themselves.




  • Considering how willingly he comments on the badness that can happen… And the fact he actually pressure tests his builds AND does the math … I’d say he’s a far cry from a company that pressure tests their builds with passengers. Live. Breifly.

    I appreciate his content. Its interesting and hearkens back to old youtube content before it became a glorified ad stream. Its a dude doing a thing and taking you along for the ride. If you are entertained? Cool. If you learned something? So much the better.




  • Considering the edit I made after rereading it - I had difficulty determining if you were firing shots or describing yourself. Speed reading and eggnog mix about as well as one would expect. In short - I’m not here to pick a fight where there isn’t one.

    I’m perfectly happy that my original interpretation was incorrect and will amend my comments as my edit suggested. I understand a lot of marginalized groups are frequently hurt and can lash out generically against the group that hurt them. Its not fun being included in that - which was the intent of my original statement.

    Appreciate the reply - cheers and well wishes. 👍
