It seems they didn’t take into account the use of brainlet organoids as a meta-level source of nonalgebraic computational processing. We do in fact live in a timeline where we might simulate the universe on a giant swarm of microbrains.

nice! does the export keep the overlay as a layer?


Hmmm, looking at Lojban in a bit more detail it sounds like the consensus is that the conative load of having to construct perfect logical specificity makes it suboptimal as a secondary intermediary language. If people are learning it as a second language it will be very hard to pick up.


This seems like a pretty solid option. I feel like this type of algorithmic language construction could be ripe for a big push forward, both in terms of constructing new languages and benchmarking them for use.

And you lost me. Irregular pluralization at the very core of the language does not smack of a the ideal neutral language, whether it is shared by Germanic and Romance languages or not.


Well I should say Scuttlebut can facilitate peer relay messaging, it can also facilitate direct peer to peer messaging I’m which case yes the messages queue up until you connect.
There are different kinds of relay systems as well for different use cases, like direct private messaging relays that key all messages encrypted but pass messages whenever either peer checks the node, but also one client to private group messages which functions more like WhatsApp communities, Telegram channels, etc. There isn’t exactly a “public open channel” system, but some groups broadcast their public keys widely so people can join them.
There are also other social functions, it has been built out quite a bit since I last checked in on it.


It uses asynchronous p2p relay through the network, users pass encrypted messages through to others until it hits the users with the key. Basically a mesh communications network.


["While individual women have spoken out before about forced birth control, the practice is far more widespread and systematic than previously known, according to an AP investigation based on government statistics, state documents and interviews with 30 ex-detainees, family members and a former detention camp instructor. The campaign over the past four years in the far west region of Xinjiang is leading to what some experts are calling a form of “demographic genocide.”
The state regularly subjects minority women to pregnancy checks, and forces intrauterine devices, sterilization and even abortion on hundreds of thousands, the interviews and data show. Even while the use of IUDs and sterilization has fallen nationwide, it is rising sharply in Xinjiang."]( https://apnews.com/article/ap-top-news-international-news-weekend-reads-china-health-269b3de1af34e17c1941a514f78d764c#%3A~%3Atext=The+Chinese+government+is+taking%2Cmajority+to+have+more+children)

How much of which, and when.
Was this Stephen Miller? Bedbug excreta formed into a golem of deceit and avarice.


wait… is this a real specific thing I missed?
EDIT: He is on Bluesky
@mark-bray.bsky.social
Anyone know if he is on the Fediverse or if his Twitx has been bridged?


For all of those following, I emailed Rob and he confirmed that the focus of the project to start is reverse engineering binary blobs on existing android devices, but he is currently only at the discovery phase of picking which phones to start with. He is first checking LineageOS compatible phones using his toolset here: https://codeberg.org/rsavoye/librephone/src/branch/main/doc/index.md


thanks for reminding meto water my plant!


That said, didn’t hird basically die because Linux gained critical mass faster and peeled off the core developers? It would be nice to imagine another bottom-up mobile OS emerging and stealing the thunder of this one, but it seems like the hope here is that Libre Phone will gravitate in some of the devs from the existing top-down open phone projects. Who knows if that will work.
One thing I wouldn’t count out right now though: China is very much in favor of getting software and hardware monopolies out from the control of US companies. Free/open(ish) LLMs are the big example, maybe they will jump on this to try and break Google’s stranglehold on the mobile market.


It isn’t encouraging that they “launched” the initiative bit have no dedicated webpage or git for it yet. Seems like going off half-cocked


The project just launched and is a software-first project. We won’t see a Libre Phone available for a while yet.
