#tcpserver x #xinetd x #tcpsvd x #systemd

share experiences or why one is preferred over the others.

before openbsd, tried to install guix-system, dragonflybsd, obarun. guix and dbsd refused to see the usb drive. obarun required internet access. openbsd is still like the hey days of arch and other gnu/linux and bsd distributions: everything one needs without a connection to the web. only the proprietary firmware required connection and one gets a list of exact requirements using fw_update.

never thought to try p9 or inferno.

hey! @nasa has a whole lot of #dyk facts!

#dyk github has been migrated to azure and is hosted on latest microsoft server, on distributed file system.

did btfs fork ipfs? both are hosted on github. does msft own both? with all the proprietary source code breaches pushing to github, i bet there is going to be some legal shift saying msft has to maintain security by owning some portion of ip in all hosted (as insurance, of course).

#ipfs x #dat

dat development has been dogfooding from the get-go.

ipfs started with a big bang, then things got abstract. at least there is libp2p from this experiment!

after reading computing news, questions:

why are coding ethics and habits that would result in f in high school allowed in production?

why do proprietary code couple sensitive data with program source?

after 40 years, proprietary code culture still repeats the same security failing mistakes?

#ipfs is no good now. so much for a #p2p network that scales interplanetary. cannot send a 500mb file to a single peer...

would have been marvelous if instead of youtube, got ipfs video feeds over ipfs instead...

Use ddg html. Javascript use tends to be for unwanted things anyway. Ddg html search results are fast, light, specific.

turns out the great enemy that may require mankind to unite to defeat it was not extraterrestrial. it is the same thing that might have defeated extraterrestrials were earth to be invaded. the enemy of my enemy is a superset enemy.
