Because Reasons: Pirate Radio SDR and Anonymity

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/07/09/mapping-brooklyns-diverse-pir… Transmission equipment has only become cheaper and more sophisticated. "the technology has gone beyond what the law has been able to do," Between 87.9 and 92.1 FM, Goren counted eleven illegal stations, whose hosts mainly spoke Creole or accented English. Pirates, he said, "offer a kind of programming that their audiences depend on. Spiritual sustenance, news, immigration information, music created at home or in the new home, here." https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2018/06/reddit-anonymity-pri… All that's required to create an account and post on any of Reddit's 1.2 million forums is an email address, a username, and a password. You don't need to tell the company your birthday, your gender, or even your real name. As Huffman put it on Thursday at the Aspen Ideas Festival, which is co-hosted by the Aspen Institute and The Atlantic, "Reddit doesn't want the burden of personal information ... and is not selling personal information." Huffman argued that anonymity on Reddit actually makes using the site "more like a conversation one has in real life" than other exchanges on the internet. "When people detach from their real-world identities, they can be more authentic, more true to themselves," he claimed.

British start-up launches 'new internet'
by Arjun Sachar 02 Jul '18

02 Jul '18

A UK-based blockchain start-up has revealed what it is calling a new version of the Internet. *DADI (Decentralized Architecture for a Democratic Internet) <https://dadi.cloud/en/> *will be faster, cheaper and more secure, but most importantly – the control over the network won't be in the hands of large corporations, but rather in those who use it. The network will be run by its users, who will hook up their devices (gaming consoles, tablets, laptops, etc) to use their spare power to run and co-own the network. Almost all of the revenue (85 per cent) will go back to the users. Explaining this new approach, DADI founder and CEO Joseph Denne said: “A vast amount of computational power currently goes unused in homes and businesses, around the world. Expensive computers, games consoles, set-top boxes, smart televisions and other devices spend large amounts of their life unused or in standby mode. And that’s the power we’ll harness for this new network - drastically reducing reliance on expensive data centres that harm the environment.” “In the same way that homeowners can now install solar panels and sell excess electricity back to the National Grid, the public will be able to connect their devices in the home to the DADI network - earning passive income as a contributor and part-owner of a fairer, faster, safer internet.”

OT coverity scan of qmail -- 53 potential defects (with false positives)
by Georgi Guninski 01 Jul '18

01 Jul '18

From my blog: https://j.ludost.net/blog/archives/2018/07/01/coverity_scan_of_qmail_--_53_… coverity scan of qmail -- 53 potential defects (with false positives) coverity is commercial static source code analyzer accepting some open source projects for free. Did a scan of djb's qmail, the results are at: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/qmail the tool gave only 53 defects. Quick scan suggests that the non-false positives are logically dead code (might be wrong about this). to access the defects, you will need coverity account (free, captchas). djb is giving monetary bounty for qmail, owing me a bounty he couldn't reproduce because of lack of virtual memory on old freebsd ;)

Thx M :) ... bout: LiGHT the most ignorant, the most insane but also DARK the most criminal, the most terrorist Финляндия это хорошая провинция "In peace prepare for war, in war prepare for peace. The art of war is of vital importance to the state. It is a matter of life and death, a road to safety or to ruin. Hence under no circumstances can it be neglected." -Sun Tzu on Chip___ 1997: "I am the Chip... no one likes me... and I DON'T CARE! ... Some people may wonder, why I do the things that i do (like have this sick material on-line). Well I have a long history of trading files and keeping them available for everyone.. In my opinion all information should be freely available.. But no information will be available unless someone does the work.. so when no one (well.. actually there may be few others) else does it much much better.. then there is an opportunity for me to put the information on-line.. I don't really mind about the contents ... It's just a string of bits.. If there is demand then I will supply.. There is no big difference between (jpg) dog sex and (asm) polyvectorshade source for me ... it's just information.. and when I have/can get some.. then I keep it available.. as freely as possible.. This time it will be different... NO ANTI-FREE SPEECH LAWS SHALL BE ENFORCED... NO COMPROMISES.. NO "SECURITY INTRESTS".. NO "PUBLIC INTRESTS".. " -Chip, 1997 "If you have bomb instructions - they call you a terrorist. If you have viruses - they call you a security hazard. If you have nazi material - they call you a racist. If you have sick porn - they call you a pervert. If you have warez - they call you a thief. But when you have all five, they can't call you names anymore. Then they see'n'believe that you are truly for information liberation... (sowhat?! you still do 10 years in Attica)" -Chip, 1997 on pZ___ 2009: "I am the "pZ" (still)... I have distributed everything... I have distributed to everyone... Some things I like... Some things I don't like... U don't like it... AND STILL I DON'T GIVE A SHIT... FUCK U!!!" -pZ, 2009 -------------------------------- mein kampf "pZ" : the orwellian death anarcho-capitalist platform : parapacifist anti-authoritarianism without adjectives aka. the one who was the non-practicing anarcho-capitalist trying do business with authoritarian democracy but due to long term negative history lost the energy to do it profitably the one who simultaneously said no! + no! both to "democratic" authoritarian tyranny and "life" in loss but... became the individual with full responsiblity and still zero liberty fuck it, no deal the definition of an individual must be unifed, not both a labrat and an individual democratic-authoritarian "life" worshippers (doctors ~ chains ~ slavers)... and democratic-authoritarian "justice" worshippers (judges ~ whips ~ punishers) must not have it both ways so... IF "MAD" (labrat[slave/pet/emotion/subhuman]) THEN "lie+quack" IF "BAD" (machine[nonliving/nonemotional/rationality/logic]) THEN "punish/terminate" NOT BOTH SIMULTANEOUSLY so... now... your move... my move... your move... which way it will be? -------------------------------- "I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than others." -Senna "Accidents are unsuspected and hated, but they are part of life. When you are fitted in a racing car and you race to win, second or third place is not enough. You must take the compromise to win, or else nothing. That means: you race or you do not." -Senna "Ayrton has a small problem. He thinks he can't kill himself because he believes in God and I think that is very dangerous for the other drivers." -Prost -------------------------------- pro-abortion * pro-atheism * pro-commercial sex * pro-distribution of illegal pornography * pro-hard drugs (especially stimulants and hallucinogens) * pro-suicide/assisted-suicide/euthanasia * pro-teen sex -------------------------------- anti-censorship * anti-copyright * anti-enforcement (["truth" + "health" + "justice" + "security"] ~ "peace") "services" * anti-legalism * anti-moralism * anti-normalism * anti-paternalism * anti-prohibition * anti-racism * anti-religion * anti-"science" * anti-"skepticism" * anti-sexism * anti-violence -------------------------------- "under devastation"/"tHE Joy of Life" by Chip aka. pZ -Summer 1995 (~6months before founding of "Chip's parazite": the End aka. the Beginning you are nothing but still rotting rising from the shit looking for a pit thinking about jumping to stop the hearth pumping wanting not to live this damn life has nothing to give eating mud, slitting wrists killing others with bare fists crushing floors raping poors being the master of judgement drowning into the excitement morphing into a ravage beast enjoying this deadly feast cutting skin, eating flesh hoping only it to be fresh acting in the light of moon not being at home soon while in sun feeling naked as a brain once baked being abducted by inner drugs like a corpse while eaten by bugs ripping waste from mouth and ears still not crying any tears having only dust to breath hoping for an instant death suffering in enourmous pains without seeing any gains nails hit into skull enough of this bull swimming in oceans of sadness towards everlasting madness feeling the death near but still having insane fear through the hole of insanity entering the dungeons of infinity into the flames turning to dust is this the final bust Sun Dec 23 01:07:18 EET 2012 +++ATH0
