http://logs.bitdash.io/asciilifeform/2022-04-05#1092901 << came back to thread in search of russian lit reccommendations, but reminded of short convo had today regarding mowing lawns; the concept of using a scythe to mow is completely alien to most now, even though it comes with the extreme benefit of being able to gather |

(asciilifeform) 2022-04-05 phf: i started reflecting on this as a result of two things: i reread a handful of classic russian literature books, war and piece, hero of our time by lermontov, some tolstoy short stories, that kind of stuff, and i started riding in earnest, and i sort of realized that our distance from our quite recent past is immense. |

up all the seed and burn it without spreading it, and over time eliminate weeds |

within a given lawn, can also mow when wet and cut around trees and lawn edges without damaging the bark on the trees or needing another machine to do the job. also dun matter how high the grass is etc... |

awt: so, what happens if my IRC client is not connected when blatta receives a message? Shouldn't I get a bunch of old messages when I connect? |

~ 2 hours 15 minutes ~ |

PeterL: that would fix the problem, but I would prefer not to put any more effort into hacks supporting the IRC interface. |
| 11:24 |
awt |
In fact I would like to hack off IRC asap. |

Logged on 2022-07-08 20:04:36 asciilifeform[billymg]: would still like an integrated client where cut&paste work (i.e. xorg proggy) but not expects any time soon, is over9000 sweat |
| 11:32 |
awt |
Undoubtedly. Can still be hacked off from blatta and be its own thing. |
| 11:32 |
asciilifeform |
that yes |

re: address cast, when you see your pals online via hearsay, could manually blast out an AC to hook up at that time. |
| 11:35 |
awt |
or simply set a trigger to broadcast AC when hearsay messages from cold peers show up |
| 11:38 |
asciilifeform |
awt: imho good idea, worth thinking |
| 11:38 |
asciilifeform |
the one serious minus is that it relies on the stranded peer to actually speak |
| 11:39 |
asciilifeform |
and therefore folx who rarely speak, will remain stranded for long periods, and not participate in helping other members of net to escape nat |
| 11:40 |
asciilifeform |
imho ideally pestron oughta proactively work to stay properly connected to peers, regardless of how often operator speaks |
| 11:42 |
awt |
Yes. I suppose the pill for the reticent would be a periodic "here I am" broadcast message type that isn't written to the console. |
| 11:42 |
asciilifeform |
the nat escape mechanism is an archaetypical 'bundle of straw', i.e. stronger over9000 together than any one part |
| 11:43 |
asciilifeform |
awt: possibly |
| 11:54 |
awt |
That's basically what address cast is though. |
| 11:57 |
awt |
Except there would only be 1 message broadcast instead of 1 per cold peer. |

scurrying out a "did not mean to say" was entertaining. |

obvious to anyone with a pulse we've been at "hybrid war" with both parties for a long time. |
