    Sometimes, when I get very drunk, I'll watch Warhammer distopian videos about how it all goes wrong. Is it wrong that I think of Musk as The Emperor, come to save us? (Firmly tongu…

    What is the end game on that though? Everyone for themselves, buy a shotgun, and hick USA?

    I have no idea what fins and fans mean in this instance. It's a fridge, in a very small space. Will those help efficiency? I mean, I imagine they will, but in practice, how do they…

    There is a small pane of shattered glass, and rain drips from a partially torn shutter nearby. A hammer is close.

    I'm keen to pursue this, it's in an enclosed space. We can go from there.

    Such a bloody engineers thing to say. I just bought this house and put the fridge in the only position it can go. If I can harness quantum pugs and whatnot, its worth asking. Well,…

    That seems out of the blue, to me, though I don't follow it (my soul died long ago with seeing how bad this corruption is). What indications are there you think he might have been …

    I was; the fridge outputs quite a bit of heat, good for raising seedlings on top of. But I would imagine the expenses involved in this stuff wouldn't make it sensible for a fridge …

    I'm on beer fuel atm and have only read it briefly, but isn't that pure, free energy? With a solid state device. Why do we not have some of these things around our fridge etc.

    30ms and Telstra is out of business in Australia. Finally, bring it on. Actually, give me 2000ms and a Musk plan, I'll take that over Telstra.

    I wonder if using the validation of the DNS record and all the surrounding nonsense is really a useful function though. I mean, if we created a new distributed system, and grandfat…

    Yes I think any new system would have to see the old one grandfathered (give the current incumbents time to find something useful to do instead of jetting off to conferences all ye…

    Yes the added verification etc on top of the key/value lookup is the meat of it I guess. A complicated problem, I guess it'd be nice to somehow remove the money factor from a criti…

    Agreed, I guess the way that works in general is just disappointing in that it doesn't produce anything meaningful or advance anything (to my mind). It's spinning wheels and burnin…

    I guess it's two distinct issues to me; the tech stack that is hobbling along, and the people that control access to it (ICANN, gTLD registries et al I guess). The latter is the re…

    This seems like it has gotten out of control - it is a basic key/value lookup, and we've created a rent-seeking, global series of registries to further suck good money from people.…
