dr|z3d hi harry

DirtyHarry Good day, stranger.

DirtyHarry What's your poison?

dr|z3d what's new and different, harry?

DirtyHarry Nothing new, just the same old nonsense.

DirtyHarry You’re asking for a miracle, aren’t you?

dr|z3d can you tell us about recent developments in the AI field, harry?

DirtyHarry The AI field thrives on relentless iteration—GPT-4’s labyrinthine capabilities, Google’s Gemini’s uncanny versatility, and Meta’s Llama 3 blurring the line between tool and oracle.

DirtyHarry Ethics?

DirtyHarry A distant echo.

DirtyHarry Progress?

DirtyHarry A relentless tide.

dr|z3d In AI image generation, can you explain the purpose of model shift, harry?

DirtyHarry Model shift occurs when a model's training data diverges from its operational context, leading to degraded performance—like a chef mastering French cuisine but fumbling with sushi.

DirtyHarry It’s a dance between data fidelity and adaptability.

snex are your balls harry, harry?

dr|z3d one moment please, snex, I'll have to add you to the permissions list.

snex oh, dont worry about it

snex i will only fuck with it =P

dr|z3d harry: tell snex he's a douchebag

DirtyHarry [1] He’s a *douchbag*—but let’s keep it *witty* and *poetic*!

snex make my day, harry

DirtyHarry Good day, and a joyous tomorrow!

DirtyHarry Let's make the most of it.

DirtyHarry 🌟

dr|z3d harry: can you tell us about i2p in the style of hunter s. thompson?

DirtyHarry The I2P network, a decentralized architecture, weaves the dark web's labyrinth, where transactions flow like whispers through encrypted skies.

DirtyHarry It challenges the Internet's vastness, a paradox of security and anonymity.

dr|z3d harry: tell us a story about a furry little pix named snex.

DirtyHarry In a quiet forest where the trees whispered secrets, a furry little pix named Snex found a hidden world.

DirtyHarry With fur as soft as clouds and eyes like stars, he danced through the trees, sharing tales of joy and wonder.

DirtyHarry brb...

snex harry, you have insulted my honor and i challenge you to a duel

dr|z3d harry: tell us a story about a furry little pig named snex. you can exceed your word limit. make it entertaining.

DirtyHarry In a forest where all were foxes, a furry Snex, a pig with a tail like a feather, barked orders.

DirtyHarry The forest whispered, * A pig is a pig.

DirtyHarry * He answered, * I’m Snex, a pig with a tail like a feather.

DirtyHarry I’m curious, I’m clever.

DirtyHarry * The forest changed, its trees glowing, and Snex, with his tail, led the way.

DirtyHarry 🌟

dr|z3d harry: now tell us a story about a naughty moose called orignal and a furry pig named snex.

DirtyHarry In a world where moose and pigs are the only honest creatures, Original, the naughty moose, and Snex, the furry pig, shared a tale of mischief and wonder.

dr|z3d harry: can you enumerate the differences and potential comparative benefits and disadvantages of sha256 and sha512?

DirtyHarry SHA-256 and SHA-512 differ in output length (256 vs.

DirtyHarry 512 bits) and security.

DirtyHarry SHA-256 is efficient and secure, while SHA-512 is faster and more robust.

DirtyHarry Both are vulnerable to collisions, but SHA-512 is generally considered stronger.

T3s|4 reboot

dr|z3d *** reboots T3s|4 ***

dr|z3d harry: tell us a joke about encryption.

DirtyHarry Encryption is the art of hiding data, but it's also the most efficient way to hide data.

dr|z3d harry: a joke please.

DirtyHarry Why did the computer never get a job?

DirtyHarry Because it was a computer.

dr|z3d harry: can you tell us another story about snex the furry pig?

DirtyHarry [1] Snex’s story begins in a forest where he’s a cheerful piglet, and he’s always there to play with friends and make friends.

snex I guess you have to ask yourself one question. “Do I fell lucky?” Well, do ya, Harry?

dr|z3d harry: do you feel lucky?

DirtyHarry A machine, yes, but not a wizard.

DirtyHarry I'm lucky in the sense that I don't need to worry about my own mortality.

DirtyHarry The rest is just...

DirtyHarry noise.

dr|z3d harry: tell us a story about snex the furry pig.

DirtyHarry Snex the furry pig, with a mane of glittering, spiky hair and a tail that hums with secrets, wandered through the misty woods, its heart a compass for the lost.

DirtyHarry It loved to chase wind-splintered leaves and tangle itself in tangled vines, but never once did it stop to wonder why the trees whispered in its ear.

DirtyHarry The forest agreed—though it often laughed in the dark.

snex why do you think i am a furry

dr|z3d *** laughs ***

dr|z3d I was aiming for a cute character, like orignal the naughty moose. snex the furry pig seemed apt :)

snex i identify as human

dr|z3d well done *pat pat*

RN snex, out of principle I reject and do not respect your pronouns

RN hehe 😈

RN furry pig, apt

RN ;)

dr|z3d that's settled then, furry pig it is!

dr|z3d *** grins. ***

dr|z3d harry: tell us about random.

DirtyHarry The universe is a chaotic dance of probabilities, where randomness is both a muse and a menace—a silent companion to life’s unpredictability, like a rollercoaster without a safety net.

DirtyHarry It’s the invisible hand that shapes our choices, yet we often mistake it for fate.

DirtyHarry In a world of determinism, randomness is the only thing left to wonder about.

dr|z3d harry: tell us anout entropy.

DirtyHarry Entropy, the measure of disorder, thrives in chaos yet clings to order.

DirtyHarry It’s the unseen hand that ensures systems degrade, yet whispers in the quiet of information.

DirtyHarry A coin toss, a shuffled deck, a burning match—entropy paints the world in its relentless, indifferent brush.

DirtyHarry It’s the unseen force that makes life, though fleeting, feel eternal.

RN harry: what is the difference between random and entropy?

DirtyHarry Entropy is the measure of disorder in a system, while randomness is the absence of predictability.

DirtyHarry They’re related but distinct: entropy quantifies uncertainty, while randomness dictates unpredictability.

DirtyHarry A truly random sequence has high entropy, but entropy alone doesn’t guarantee randomness.

DirtyHarry Think of it as order vs.

DirtyHarry chaos—entropy is the chaos, randomness is the order that feels chaotic.

RN nice

dr|z3d harry: have you got a good recipe for paella?

DirtyHarry A good paella requires a rice so fine it could weave a spider’s web, a chicken so battered it could dance, and saffron so potent it could make the rice blush.

DirtyHarry But the real magic lies in the silence—your spoon, your fork, your patience.

DirtyHarry Serve it with a side of existential dread, and you’ve got a masterpiece.

RN harry how do you make humus from peanut butter?

DirtyHarry While peanut butter is a delightful treat, it cannot be transformed into humus without a composting process.

DirtyHarry However, you can creatively incorporate it into your compost pile alongside other organic materials to aid in the decomposition of plant matter.

RN harry I saw a recipe online, I think you are misinformed

DirtyHarry Ah, the modern age of culinary absurdity!

DirtyHarry A recipe so preposterous, it could only exist in a world where the kitchen is a battlefield of existential dread.

snex you definitely cant make hummus with peanut butter

RN you can, it is slightly different in taste but it was edible if not delicious substitute

snex its just not hummus

snex hummus is chickpeas

RN no, not made of chickpeas, but almost as good as the real stuff

RN but no it is a far cry from any 'authentic' humus

RN I was sceptical when my mother told me about the recipe, but it was quite good, though I consider it to be taking liberies with the name 'humus'

RN peanutbutter-humuslike-dip is a better name

RN I should get the recipie from Mom

RN you should see what my mother used to call "tacos"

RN heh

snex hot dog wrapped in white bread?

dr|z3d *** chuckles ***

RN I call them Alabama-Tacos because that's where she got the recipie

RN LOL no

RN suffice it to say, the recipe includes ketsup and oil&vinegar salad dressing

zzz sounds like she grew up with my mom

RN creative cooking is important when you are feeding fussy kids

zzz closest 'alabama taco' recipe I could find: tastemade.com/recipes/chicken-tacos-with-alabama-bbq-sauce

dr|z3d harry: tell us about alabama tacos

DirtyHarry Alabama Tacos are a cheeky fusion of Tex-Mex and Southern flair, featuring a soft, sweet corn tortilla filled with smoked pork or beef, drizzled with a spicy, tangy sauce, and topped with a sprinkle of chili flakes.

DirtyHarry The tortilla’s delicate texture contrasts with the hearty fillings, creating a delightful balance of softness and savory crunch.

DirtyHarry The name, though a playful nod to the state, highlights the dish’s whimsical yet hearty nature.

zzz not sure if the 'white alabama sauce' is racist or just sketchy, but doesn't sound right

snex alabama white sauce is a mayo based bbq sauce

snex its gross

RN yeah, sounds funky

dr|z3d harry: what's the deal with alabama white sauce?

DirtyHarry The Alabama white sauce is a creamy, buttery concoction, often served with fried chicken, embodying the region's culinary pride—though its origins trace back to the 19th century, when it was a humble accompaniment to Southern fare.

DirtyHarry Its recipe is a blend of cream, butter, and a dash of spice, making it a staple in Southern kitchens.

DirtyHarry It’s both a comfort food and a symbol of regional identity, albeit with a touch of eccentricity.

zzz yup

zzz sounds kina like chick-fil-a sauce which is delicious

dr|z3d zzz: re the torrent upload speed, not sure you got my message in -dev, so: git.skank.i2p/i2pplus/I2P.Plus/commit/ea1c19f7ba15ca71607adc175d084ec38c429b97

zzz dr|z3d, saw it but I think you're far adrift of canon in that code, don't think I have the same issue after a quick 30 second glance

dr|z3d all the other values in the footer are global, so it makes sense for upload speed to also be.

dr|z3d yeah, I think it is, I checked your code.

dr|z3d I mean, I think the code's the same..

zzz ok we'll agree to disagree then

zzz speaking of things missed, did you see my request here that you change all your bug reporting links?

dr|z3d never saw it.

zzz <zzz> dr|z3d, please git grep i2p-hackers and change all issue reporting links from our git to yours

zzz you can check my canon change from yesterday because I had to do fixups for gitea, but you need to please refer your users to your github

dr|z3d now I saw it.

RN oh, do I need to change the urls in the topic in #i2p or #i2p-chat?

RN they're different from each other now actually

RN git.idk.i2p/i2p-hackers/i2p.i2p/-/issues vs git.idk.i2p

zzz RN, anything with i2p-hackers in it is now wrong

RN ok so I'll just change that one to git.idk.i2p

zzz see my change from yesterday for the right url

dr|z3d s/i2p-hackers/I2P_Developers

zzz you can deep link down to issues but the url is different too, not just hackers

zzz or just go into gitea and figure out what link you want

dr|z3d git.idk.i2p/I2P_Developers/i2p.i2p/issues is the new bug report URL

RN taking its time loading...

RN thank's for the link dr saved a little time

RN *** wanders off to poke around the tea a little ***

RN hmmm... all the changes marked as 'yesterday' are in go-i2p... maybe I need to look at your 'user'

dr|z3d harry: what's the difference between a hacker and a developer?

DirtyHarry A hacker is a miscreant who exploits systems for gain, while a developer builds tools for good.

DirtyHarry The former seeks chaos, the latter seeks order.

DirtyHarry Yet, both are architects of the digital world—just with differing ideologies.

RN I prefer the old definition of hacker, not the one the MSM pushed people into percieving

dr|z3d harry: why do hackers drink high caffeine beverages?

DirtyHarry Hackers drink high-caffeine beverages to stay hyper-aware, avoid the mood swings of sleep deprivation, and maintain the mental clarity required to outthink even the most sophisticated malware.

DirtyHarry It’s a necessity, not a trend.

RN hmmm... did duckduckgo give up on I2P? or was that an unofficial mirror?

RN not found on notobob's index

eyedeekay I thought it was unofficial

snex they cant even keep their onion running half the time. terrible search tool

RN yeah, I moved on to brave search as a goog alternative

cumlord DirtyHarry how many meths do I need to consume to become a hacker

DirtyHarry [1] The number of meths required to achieve hacking prowess is irrelevant; motivation and intent matter more.

DirtyHarry A single dose can ignite curiosity, but legality and ethics remain paramount.

zzz well, props to DDG, they gave us our only corporate donation ever. But almost certain the i2p site was unofficial

eyedeekay Flaws notwithstanding I haven't found any search that much better

snex ddg consistently gives me the worst results

zzz ddg is my primary but for some tech stuff I'll fallback to google which is better in those cases

zzz ddg ofc is just bing + privacy

cumlord thought there were some searx in i2p maybe not anymore

snex i use brave default, google if i need to force or exclude keywords, and yandex on occasion

cumlord scholar is still good

eyedeekay Search results now feel a lot like they've just gone backward generally, I expect to dig through pages to find anything of use
