If you’re using a 200bps Lora radio, it’s bad, but there are sites serving multi-GB files over TCP. Network works over hops, if you’re more than a few hops from your target server you can try to find a closer backboth path. There’s also a lot of mirrors going on.
If people started using it in earnest, I’m sure we could come up with a DHT style solution

That is exactly it.
Reticulum is a decentralized, mostly anonymous, encrypted network.
rnsgit let’s you host git repos on it.
nomadnet let’s you make 1990’s style webpages on it.
There are proxies and vpns and messaging (LXMF) and telephony (LXST)

None of their games would be hard to fast-follow with AI. You’d lose the actual IP, but it would irritate the hell out of them

Why the F we’re still hosting grey market on github I’ll never know.
Should just take all that shit over to RNSgit and host it on the dark side

TBH: oh… hi
That’s it. I’m not picking that up, nor would they be impressed with me. No reason not to make basic small talk, especially if I’m in an area where that’s expected.
They spend more on their appearance in general public than I would on a date.
and not that looks are everything, but i’m def not into that whole blonde-maxxing thing

I know a guy took a sex worker back to his room, he claims he didn’t know she was a sex worker. Some shit went down, he absolutely refused to pay, she maced the fuck out him. The hotel put a $10,000 charge on the work paid room because it got on everything and they were just paying to replace all the shit that couldn’t be cleaned. He was fired.
They could always entice you with a weapon :)

I had a friend who swore she could feel it. I explained the inverse square law, she asked if she could just shiled it in a metal box and still use the wifi just a little. I told her if she wanted to prove it, have someone inplug the wifi randomly and see if she could feel it. She tried and could not, but contested that it was an actual test.
we don’t talk much these days.
- Comment on Everywhere I go I see this stupid AI gen font 1 week ago:
I dislike the font, but I REALLY fucking hate what they’re doing with food. It’s like they’re all using the same horrible model that has never seen hashbrowns and BBQ sauce. You ask midjounrey for a steak, it makes you a convincing steak. It’s like every restaurant in every country is set on tryptophobic food

I’m kinda hoping they get greedy, start infighting, and split their vote between Vance and someone who didn’t let Trump just fly them into the ditch.
- Comment on Lemmy users logging on to level set the Blue Wave enjoyers 1 week ago:
hold anti progressive, status quo democrats to account and root them out.
That’s where the win will be. We have succeeded in a temporary reprieve.
Celebrate? yes! But only as long as we dont dust off our hand and sit down job well done.
- Comment on Total fabrication 1 week ago:
To print, these days, you generate PostScript and fire that off to the printer.
PostScript -> PDF is a very light translation.
The biggest slight is not renaming print to Print/PDF and just shortcutting the same exact code.

IF you’re married over 10 years, that twice a year or once every two years. It’s long enough that you’ll forget in between.
- Comment on 'None of these people have ever made a game,' BioWare co-founder Greg Zeschuk says of game industry executives: 'They just don't know how it works' 2 weeks ago:
We had a good publisher once. They picked us up, helped us cross the line and stuck with us while we stayed in the black for most of a decade before they lost interest and sold us to someplace who was awful but didn’t fire half of us immediately.
There are publishers out there that are good and useful. They are not in the majority.

- Comment on Satan Was The Good Guy This Whole Time? 2 weeks ago:
The bible, as we know it, was canonized from the available religious scripts/scrolls of the time. The original work was a quilt of chosen stories designed to tell a narrative. No, no, that’s too Jewish, no, that’s too Muslim. I think there’s not enough wife beating in here, have you considerd…
Any changes in translation are still pale compared ot the section and organiztion of the source material that honestly wasn’t great to begin with. Even at that, whatever it says, preachers place their own spins on it. Whatever it take to get those donations…
And just because one religion didn’t there are other religions out there that are STILL coming up with more source content :)

Especially if there were never females before. They obviously don’t procreate that way so why would they have any more interest in a female?

Here his is in dr no a year later looking more like he’s 40 instead of 55, given he’s in makup, but the crows-feet smile lines aren’t doing him any favors.

TBH, the effect on skin from smoking seem to hit like a truck in the 40’s, that’s gotta be severe tanning, smoking and some really rough genetics.

Could be worse is a shitty sentiment. Just stop at beating anyone is wrong.
- Comment on EA is shutting down BioWare and the next Mass Effect has been canceled 3 weeks ago:
Game companies are reading the tea leaves.
AI bought all the ram
AI bought owns all the GPU
Any Game can be decoded and rewritten in fresh code via AI for the tiniest fraction of a salary. It will eventually be able to do it with performance.
New IP could maybe, possibly be generated by some designer/artist types for the cost of a couple salaries.
The client is in the enemy’s (our) hands.
All games must go back to Gaming as a Service
We won’t pay for gaming as a service.
No new affordable tech is coming to drive the industry, all games will need to shift to online only, AI may get good enough to make games for pennies.
The only part of gaming that survives this is indie developers that push past making shovelware with AI. AAA is cooked.
