MON POUVOIR DU SHITPOST A FUSIONNÉ AVEC MA MACHINE QU'EST-CE QUE JE PEUX FAIRE https://witches.town/media/IPYAJi_YOFwaTzMF6V8

tbh I envy people who have friends who ask them their opinion and who don't use Framapad, but I envy quite less the ones who lost their thesis because of a faulty algorithm

Yotsuba (4chan's backend) is so garbage

I've been offered a 4chan pass (but it's a long story) and I try to post from my ProtonVPN, as 4chan whitelists VPNs' IPs for 4chan pass users only.

I tried to post using my VPN and being connected to my 4chan pass but ProtonVPN has been removed from the whitelist because mods are plainly stupid; so I tried to post after disconnecting from my VPN but I had to wait 14 minutes to use my 4chan pass with another IP.

Even Netflix is kinder with its users and with abuses (people sharing a Netflix account, one screen each).

ffs I just wrote 4000 characters, at least show me you read it or I move everything on Freenet

The Godwin point is a total ad hominem argument, by the way. Which doesn't mean that we shouldn't throw that to actual nazis: the alt-right on /pol/ perfectly knows what they are and what they deserve.

But when I'm saying that we're all worth the same to toxic relatives (bigots) they know that I'm not a nazi ffs

In the perspective of incremental data helping people to grasp the reality, which means Linux kernel discussions, social statistics, etc., an ad hominem ("authority argument") is used to refutate a valid piece of data based on the argument "I'm this, you're that".

For the record, when I'm saying that all humans are worth the same (our actions are the recursive product of our past actions and our passive data captation), please don't make a Godwin point because mathematics don't care about morals and emotions.

I could show that the Internet is a right-wing infrastructure, which means it giving power to capitalism and to the State, by showing the multiple attempts to end the net neutrality and not to shut it down: the Internet is seen as an economical institution and not a social one; therefore shutting it down (and keeping it for the sole governments and army) would be bad for the business. By the way, it shows our weak position in the force struggle; we must reach a larger audience.

One may argue that we couldn't shut down the Internet because there are ethical and somehow grassroots ISPs, but:
– root servers; and
– these ISPs couldn't handle a city like Paris

The brain is an extremely complex organ dedicated to the cross-processing of data.

I wouldn't swear that's all of it, but besides shitpost, I identified six kinds of data users can exchange: fictional art (drawings, fanfictions), data benefiting to a feeling of belonging (how the weather is, how I feel today), memes, incremential data to help people to gras the reality (iptables rules, social statistics), force struggle (shitstorms, harrassement), and self-organization.

That's not the point but we may go deeper: for the record, shitstorms like #MeToo are related to the media; and incremential data to self-organization (why are we doing what we're doing?).

The Internet is a right-wing infrastructure, which consists in stacking margins (selling data, displaying ads, the paypal margin, and of course the company margin) until the proletarian who builds the t-shirt.

Leftist (and far-right) people organizing themselves here is a side-effect.

There are three kinds of users of the Internet:
1) governments and army;
2) companies; and
3) end users.

Y'A KUZCO SUR NETFLIX OMG (c'est quoi Kuzco?)

Of course, he didn't.

In the end of Philip K. Dick's book, the replicants hide in John Isidore's flat, where he owns a single apartment, and whose silence scares him like a monster; and John Isidore, who's labeled as "special" (this label exists because of nuclear radiations), cries because the replicants cut a spiders' legs and because he can do nothing about it (they're too strong).

So at some point, a female replicant carelessly bombs people living in a giant dump from a drone while having a nails manucure and I thought that if Ridley Scott was a good producer he would do something interesting at the end of the movie

I didn't really understand Do Android dream of electric sheeps?, from Philip K. Dick. I should read a lot more of his to understand what he meant in this book and I don't have the time for this.

(I don't have the time to stay on Mastodon and Twitter for so long by the way but it's really hard to focus on a paper book.)

In his book, Philip K. Dick talks about different layers of reality, and the constant paranoïa that comes from the manipulations of reality.

Any proprietary piece of technology not working when you need it is definitely cyberpunk.
