I have been having a rough day, but this has made it so much better.

(I have a deep love of corvids, just as intense as my hatred of surveillance capitalism)

EFF is offering a defcon shirt with a logo of ravens dismantling a surveillance camera? I'm Very Fucking In.

(I totally ordered mine before sharing.)

Listening to very loud music on my headphones and writing some notes.

Thinking about how networks arranged around conspiracy theories probably perceive reality as damage, and route around it in a fashion similar to the old adage about the internet and censorship.

How in the sweet hell do you rehab that?

Please mask up, traveling friends.

Seeing lots and lots of people pop positive covid tests lately.

Been thinking on a question - HP Lovecraft moaned from time to time about "non-Euclidean geometry" driving people mad and providing access to other dimensions, etc.

Is there a networking or ip-space corollary to non-Euclidean geometry?* Some kind of impossible internet configuration that induces madness or allows one to access the places beyond the limits of human understanding?

(*The notional shadow of example[.]com doesn't count, I'm looking for non-obvious examples.)

Actual book in the Baby Professor children’s book series: Devastating Nuclear Accidents Throughout History.

Apparently for ages 9-12.

If Zoom wants to mine usage for AIML content generation without consent, guess I’ll just start poisoning their training data with Disney IP.

Found out one of my favorite authors, philosopher Eugene Thacker, wrote (with Alexander Galloway) a 2007 book on networks titled “The Exploit” so of course I’m engaging in some light Sunday reading.

(Thacker is better known for his “Horror of Philosophy” series about horror and the limits of human understanding, which is phenomenal.)
