#honk, now at 5g speeds
the way the honknet was meant to be experienced

anybody who fw websockets, please tell me why:

  • felt works fine in chrome/vivaldi
  • but underbbs doesn't - from the serverside it looks like the connection is opened properly, but from the browser it looks like the websocket connection fails. it works fine in firefox and webkit, and it doesn't matter if it's hosted locally or on a server with TLS

It has been 6 months since I passed my viva, yet I forgot to share my thesis here (due to it feeling unreal af... until... today :)

It's called 'The Image at the End of the World: Communities of practice redefining technology on a damaged Earth'. In it I describe communities which give voice and shape to different definitions and roles for technology within the polycrisis: permacomputing, computing within limits, collapse informatics, salvage computing, slow tech, redundant technology, low-tech, feminist technology, convivial computing, disability driven development and more.

Have you seen the new code? It's on malloc. It's literally on volatile.

It's on #define with side effects. It's literally on long long.

You can probably find it on __attribute__((packed)). Dude it's on restrict.

It's a static inline original. It's on extern. You can #include <extern>.

You can go to extern and fopen("extern","r"). Compile onto extern right now.

Go to extern. Dive into extern. You can extern it. It's on extern.

extern has it for you. extern has it for you.

i'm GONNA finish underbbs soon

finishing the adapters (now that the basics are in place it's not too bad to just bring them all up to the same level of the honk adapter), a little bit of UI cleaning and testing, and it should be ready

i spent quite a number of hours the past month trying to find out what broke in felt sometime between the end of my gurps campaign and now.

finally having discovered it was not anything to do with code but that while i migrated the assets and users DB from the old server i did not migrate the main DB, so even though the metadata about the table existed in the users DB and the assets exist in the storage directory, the table itself did not exist in the main DB and so the websocket connection could never open because the subprotocol which must be one of the table keys in the main DB couldn't be negotiated =w=

Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche on being gay and buddhist: "your sexual orientation has nothing to do with understanding or not understanding. You could be gay, you could be lesbian, you could be straight. We never know which one will get enlightened first.

Probably lesbians."

my #mmzx OC's transformed state - Model Iz, the prismatic mega man

MegaMan Model Iz: her base armor is dark purple with black plating. her helmet has the zero-like swept back horns and a flickering holgraphic cyan forehead crystal; her torso armor is articulated with silver abs; her cuffs on wrists and ankles are silver, and her braces are black and her armor is form fitting, not unlike black thighhigh socks on her purple base armor, with silver plates on the hips; she is weilding a black saber with a prismatic edge and spherical prismatic crystal in the hilt, blocking with the blade across her face, and her platinum hair sweeps out behind her. two prismatic crystalline shield units emanate light on either side of her
