  • someone genuinely interested for intellectual reasons would likely not fall for it. I would imagine that a non-trivial percentage of “antiquity enjoyers” are very light on history substance and heavy on history feelz.

    once the appropriate brain tickles have been pushed into their heads their “history substance” feed content becomes decidedly propagandized.









  • indeed! had I not posted this, I would be asking the same question!

    so, its quite a bit more mundane than you might have hoped for.

    a mix of…

    • ~40% locally served internal pages (mostly zabbix, mail/web server monitoring, some development pages, etc).
    • ~60% non-local pages - currently lots of retro computing stuff, debian stuff, github (sigh)

    the most recent page I opened was an archive.org page on TI-84 firmware disassembly.

    I make heavy use of Firefox containers for separation. honestly, Firefox is an absolute workhorse for me. if the Firefox ecosystem were to fall into the void, I would be dead in the water.





  • exactly. I have been begging multiple ISPs for direct IPv6 allocations for 10+ years now. its always “we are internally testing - not available for distribution yet”. the most recent request from me was less than 3 months ago when I needed a IPv4 /29 for a remote site. figured I would see if I could also get a nice sized IPv6 allocation as well. nope. just gotta keep paying a premium for that dwindling IPv4 address space.

    Hurricane Electric is to be commended for their public IPv6 tunnels, but without direct allocations from your immediate upstream, its just play.

    I understand caution when approaching things like secure boot - it can absolutely be abused by monopolies. however… barring inherent or implementation flaws and ensuring that signing keys are under user control it conceptually (and practically) allows for some useful things.
