If you arent aware of what Cybersyn was basically the socialist government in Chile made the internet before the internet was a thing and they had this central control room for it that looked straight outta startrek then penochet blew it up. Unlike the modern internet which sucks Cybersyn had experimented with a light switch looking thing but instead of turning off or on the lights it was used to measure the general mood of the country. If people were feeling unhappy they turn the switch off if they are great they turn it on. All this info is piled into the control room and it makes a map of all of Chile and you can see the literal vibe of the country. We almost had a vibe switch on our walls.

Comrades. I propose we pull our money together to rent an abandoned factory somewhere walkable and we build Cybersyn 2. We get the technocrats involved because we would need some of their skills, and eventually we create ai and ai can predict the future, we build a communist machine. And somewhere down the line we liquidate the tech bros but thats not important right now. Communist polycule in the city making an ai god that will tell us exactly how to enact communism. Whos with me or whos with me???

    Fourteen years ago there was an alternate path we could have taken: IPvX: Better than IPv6?

    IPv6 is coming, but it is difficult and expensive to implement because it is not backwards-compatible with IPv4. This page explains the problem and a proposed solution: IPvX. This is a fantastic proposal from Bill Chimiak that may save us all from a large expense of time and money, and spare us from a whole new set of security problems.
