CIRCLE WITH A DOT

Moved into a new house last fall.

All the appliances have wi-fi.

They are not online.

“But updates!?!”

They are not online.

“How will they stay secure?!?”

By staying offline.

@c0debabe boosting to start a holy war… sheesh

I bring this up, because that led to being a trusted part of the Veilid project, and joining their board.

This summer we are going to be making some noise, and I hope you all follow along.

The internet has become a cesspool, we need to run the restore jobs and return to web 1.5.

Let us grow into a new network. One that puts the user first.

Remember that time we accidentally built the world’s biggest supercomputer with cDc and The L0pht to help stop a pandemic with Dolly Parton?

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

All toes are detachable with enough dedication.

@catsalad I have confirmed at least 2 toes.

Bold of you to assume they are on feet.

I am still posting at a lower capacity, but am dipping my toes back in.

And here is Par doing a recent interview telling his stories.

You should give it a listen.

I remember when I was first getting on BBS and this guy was already out there, a whisper.

Exploiting Soviet Mainframes and causing international incidents.

I was fortunate to later get to know him.

It cannot be understated how much he was in the camp of the good ones.

I am devastated by the news that ParMaster has ascended to the VX heavens.

A hacker with more lore and history than nearly any can claim. Supportive to others, and a guy who just honestly wanted to be your friend.

I will miss our chats, pal.
