The issue was I was trying to hit <right shift> with my pinkie, so I could enter an uppercase character after the `/` (it was a mac). and instead of <right shift> I hit <enter>....
From then on, I always used <left shift> with `rm` commands 😆

it is specifally an offshoot of urbit. one of the early urbit devs proposed changes to NOCK that weren't implemented and he went on to create PLAN. our company forked his "urbit-like" (called Plunder) in an attempt to build some usable applications on top of it. short story: it was a bit too early for that and we failed. but the upstream work is continuing as far as I know.

Lately I've been feeling a deep longing lately to crack my knuckles and write some strongly-typed, direct, procedural code in a chunky language with the network connection turned off and zero AI agents anywhere in sight.
You know, like.. programming. Not whatever this other stuff is.

the biggest black pill recently was trying to use proton mail to sign up for an email alias product and getting a message IN PROTON saying "this email was used for a third party service sign up but this account is restricted" - proton actually withheld delivery of the welcome/confirm email!
to reproduce: create a new proton account with an lnemail.net address as the collateral they demand at sign up. then once created, immediately use the proton account to create an anonaddy.io account.

Continuing on this line of thought and playing a kind of weird devil's advocate for the socialists: It's the State that's the problem regarding community experimentation, whether you're on the extreme left, the extreme right, or some other dimension. ALL governments are basically socialist systems already - So the outright blatant socialists naturally try to use this existing aligned lever to further their ideological aims. Why would they go elsewhere when this thing right here is already going in their direction?
It's the libertarians that end up looking silly. The goal of trying to make a socialist government into a more libertarian one - putting aside the fact that a libertarian government is an incoherent concept - is a stupid one. but they somehow also seem unmotivated to go build their own thing somewhere.
i'm sort of rambling, so here's a closing tangent: absolute privacy, cryptoanarchy, darknet market maximalism, practical agorism - these are the only paths forward.

I personally know a few socialists who truly do believe it. I think they are just very confused about economics. plus value different parts of the trade-off spectrum wrt coercion and "greater good"

2026-03-03 18:51:51 CET

- reply

i don't disagree with this.
but it unfortunately also applies alarmingly well to cypherpunk and voluntarist groups as well. where are the ancap free cities attracting commerce and immigrants with their promises of deregulation, taxless transaction and absolute freedom?
the State overpowers all community experimentation

Am I doing something wrong, or does Alex have some source of cheap tokens? My openclaw experiments indicate that "political dissidents" would be thousands of dollars in the hole per month to Anthropic if they used their claws to do anything significant.
Don't get me wrong, the possibilities are exciting - but the price tag seems prohibitive for anything other than luxury use for now?

you're right that the digital version for me has descended into "collecting" and timestamping and and a kind of dumping ground. the best corners of my obsidian notes are the super atomic and purposefully linked ones... that is - the ones that really **could have** been index cards.
i'm currently feeling extremely motivated to start a new, proper, analog zettelkasten on note cards in a box. excited to start that this week and make it a winter/spring project and see where it goes. hell, i might start tonight!

i'll check out Antinet, sounds great! I'm a software developer and strongly committed to building digital freedom tech - But I've got major leanings towards analog, traditional art, and general "back to the land" ethos.
It's a serious conflict I've been trying to work out. Ironically, I've been doing so through handwritten notes in leather-bound journals!

2026-02-23 02:20:04 CET

- reply

i do a lot of hand-writing as well, but different goals.
handwritten notes can't come close to the kind of interlinking and full text search possible with a digital zettelkasten. But digital tools pale in comparison to handwriting when it comes to personal expression, emotion, and meditative thought.
Simply: analog is for figuring out what I think and feel, and digital is for organizing it.

i've got piles of my own notes re: the opportunities to "unite the tribes" of the various anarcho-* branches ;)
I'm a firm believer in that. I think I have some old nostr notes about it somewhere back in the timeline.
one hot take at the moment: i think the anarcho-capitalist/free-marketeer model is structurally accepting of divergent approaches, for instance that of the ancomm ("good luck trying your thing over there, we'll let the market sort it out!"). But the ancomm is more or less actively hostile to divergent approaches existing at all ("the free market results in exploitation and must be squashed wherever it is found!"). The radical left ethos is definitionally _not_ "live and let live", because they feel that "allowing people to do what they want" is a threat that has to be headed off early.
At least that's what I've found in my dealings with people.
....Or maybe those nasty Statist centrists have infected my mind with propaganda to make me skeptical of the ancomms! Highly possible.

No this is actually the perfect solution.
A ‘dumb’ WACZ replayer server that takes a querystring WACZ resource (like https://replay.example/?wacz=https://blossom.example/<id>.wacz#/?url=https://site.com/), downloads it to a cache, builds an in-memory URL -> response index from the archive, and then serves archived HTTP responses under a replay path - rewriting links so the browser keeps requesting resources from the archive instead of the live web.
This wacz replay server would be separate from the blossom archives, you just arrive at the server and tell it which wacz to load. it doesn't have to care who's serving the wacz, if it's from blossom or s3 or whatever, as long as the file is publicly-downloadable.
