 dash | matthewcroughan - nix.zone: this all sounds normal to me | 03:31:12 |
 matthewcroughan - nix.zone | You need to peer with other routers, which requires manual input into systems, it's not automated. Who's going to peer with you? | 03:31:35 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | You won't be accepted. | 03:31:41 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Not without a lot of money. | 03:31:46 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | dash: Alright. Your idea of normal and mine are a bit different, but I accept you nontheless! 😀 | 03:32:26 |
| dash | matthewcroughan - nix.zone: what do you consider "normal" | 03:32:46 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | In reply to @washort:greyface.org
matthewcroughan - nix.zone: what do you consider "normal" Mob rule. | 03:32:58 |
 6aa4fd | you realize there is a pretty big difference from "you are not legally permitted to run this software" and "it is expensive to convince other people to connect to your computer while it is running" right? | 03:33:05 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Whatever everyone else believes, is normal, apparently. | 03:33:08 |
| dash | matthewcroughan - nix.zone: lol why | 03:33:09 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | In reply to @washort:greyface.org
matthewcroughan - nix.zone: lol why Because if 1000 people say "that's x" and 10 people say "that's y", the mob wins. | 03:33:28 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | It's x! | 03:33:33 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | 6aa4fd: I didn't say legal, I said politically. | 03:33:58 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | As in you will be rejected. | 03:34:03 |
| 6aa4fd | that is a pretty specific and not particularly well-favored theory of truth | 03:34:14 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | In reply to @6aa4fd:tchncs.de
that is a pretty specific and not particularly well-favored theory of truth I'm afraid history backs me up :P | 03:34:30 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Is there a NixOS philosophy channel? | 03:34:41 |
| 6aa4fd | i cannot think of a single well-regarded academic author in history who was a truth majoritarian | 03:35:20 |
| 6aa4fd | i can't even think of a poorly-regarded one to be honest with you | 03:35:36 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Alright, well just because you can't recall it, doesn't mean one doesn't exist! | 03:35:57 |
| 6aa4fd | more people are relativist but that is pretty fundamentally dissimilar | 03:36:17 |
| 6aa4fd | sure buddy | 03:36:20 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I also don't know what academics have to do with my opinion :P | 03:36:51 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Anyway, check out what you can do with SCION if you get time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KO-YP7rkHA | 03:37:52 |

| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | * No need for BGP or hub-and-spoke. Just the best path through a network. No IP addresses, use your own addressing scheme. | 03:38:35 |

| dash | every society, organization, and network is controlled by a group of people much smaller than the whole | 03:41:15 |
| dash | this is normal | 03:41:26 |
