my excuse for not making a plugin? I don't know java enough to make hello-world. so unless I wanted to tweak snowman to show something else as a decoration not sure what I'd do.
RN
btw... snowman still works
RN
favorite POC
RN
;)
dr|z3d
just rattling your cage, RN. :)
RN
consider it rattless
RN
;)
RN
amusing 404 page... but I already have a custom one.
dr|z3d
it's not for you :)
dr|z3d
it's intended as the default for jetty 12, as zzz is adopting the + custom error message trick in canon.
RN
nice
RN
somehow I don't think that will be as Vanilla as needed for Canon
dr|z3d
you may be wrong.
RN
I may
RN
surprise us zzz?
dr|z3d
zzz has already commented.
RN
oh
dr|z3d
albeit briefly, "not bad".
RN
cool
dr|z3d
the main point is we provide a 404, canon and plus, and it's editable.
RN
yeah, if people don't like the pink bg that will motivate them to make their own
RN
;)
dr|z3d
it's a bit less pink now.
dr|z3d
or maybe more. dunno. refresh.
RN
well my monitor colors are not tightly calibrated either and not sure where I am in the blue-light reduction curve at this time of day...
onon_
jetty is javarouter built-in web server?
RN
don't see a diff so probably my monitor
RN
yeah
RN
the easy to set up eepsite
onon_
Somebody use it?
RN
also handles some of the console stuff if I recall correctly
RN
I do
onon_
Lithttpd
onon_
much better and fasster
snex
one of my web servers uses the jetty
RN
my site is 100% jetty (50% Canon and 50% Plus)
RN
(roughly speaking)
onon_
lihttpd+i2pd is best choice
RN
thank you for sharing an opinion onon
RN
which is better, nano or vim?
onon_
=)
RN
*** giggles ***
snex
others use apache that then uses passenger to invoke ruby
RN
yeah, everyone that knows http/webservers before I2P has their preference
RN
jetty is there to make it easy for someone with less experience to make a site
RN
you should have seen the mess I put up on my first eepsite
RN
(still same dest though after ≈20 years)
onon_
It is good for novice to learn how it works, but running serious project on jetty...
RN
sure and some use nginx and a dozen other things to cobble together something
RN
good thing my site isn't serious
RN
;)
dr|z3d
onon_: that's largely the point of jetty. it's a basic webserver, can be coaxed into running perl and python and even php with some work, but mostly it's good for static stuff. by the tume you decide you want to run a php site or whatever else, you're already running nginx, lighthttpd, apache or whatever.
RN
but I think I do ok for an ammeter site operator
onon_
dr|z3d, for static stuff ligttpd is much better
onon_
For high-load is apache+nginx
dr|z3d
if you're running i2pd, you have no choice.
RN
how do you define and measure better, onon_?
dr|z3d
if you run java i2p, for static stuff jetty is just fine, and it's pre-configured, so all you have to do is start the tunnel. so argumably better.
RN
and does lighthttp run as well on windows as it does on freebsd?
RN
I did host my site from windows XP for a loooong time
onon_
RN less resource consumption. Yes on Win it works good too
RN
(well after official EOL and even xp-embedde EOL)
snex
how can you have no choice on i2pd? you can always reverse proxy
RN
for my site, on the machines I have it on, it doesn't twitch the needle
RN
so I wouldn't see a difference...
dr|z3d
what I mean is, in respect of running an already-provisioned webserver (jetty) as part of your router, you can't on i2pd.
RN
sure, i2pd requires byows
RN
but if you are running i2pd, you should already have the skillset to fire up a webserver from scratch
RN
(byows = bring your own web server)
onon_
RN what is your site address
onon_
can i see it
dr|z3d
should have fixed the download completed logging issue, not_bob. snark standalone update on skank and github.io
orignal
come on. you can run even python http for simple server with static content
orignal
and python is everywhere
dr|z3d
yup, indeed you can. as mentioned above.
orignal
I mean you don't need a special app for http server
cumlord
yeah jetty works good for static
dr|z3d
> it's a basic webserver, can be coaxed into running perl and python [...]
snex
only if you care about silly things like not having users RCE you
orignal
please tell my http server must be a part of I2P router
orignal
doesn't make sense for me
snex
my apache doesnt know anything about i2p. it knows that some requests come from the internet on port 80 or 443 and some requests come on port 81
dr|z3d
because the console runs on jetty, orignal. as do all the provided webapps. so it doesn't hurt to provision a web server.
cumlord
turnkey easy site that works in i2pd wouldn’t be a bad thing
cumlord
RCE sounds naughty, no thank
snex
yeah so dont write your own http server
snex
you will be RCEd
snex
rule #1 of writing your own http server: you dont know what youre doing
cumlord
yup. I have a thing for this but I don’t trust it, because I in fact do not know what I’m doing
orignal
ha ha. i2pd uses own http server for web consile
snex
if its just being accessed locally thats fine but something intended for public, very bad idea
dr|z3d
sure it does, so why not spawn another instance for users.
orignal
because it's not a real http server
dr|z3d
that's where hardening comes into play. which is exactly what i2p's jetty is.
dr|z3d
anyways, onon_, haven't got got a patchset to merge? :)
dr|z3d
*you
cumlord
to be fair, it failed pretty fantastically when I tried hooking it up through i2pd and DOSing it
onon_
mmm, what?
dr|z3d
what did? the i2pd console, or your attempt to DDOS it? or something else?
cumlord
Each request spawns a thread, I think: and no throttling on i2pd router
cumlord
Caused the Java router to crash
onon_
It’s not for me to decide. Ask orignal
orignal
no requests don't spawn new threads
dr|z3d
onon_: orignal wants.
dr|z3d
don't you orignal? :)
cumlord
not on i2pd, jetty I mean. Could be remembering wrong only did this once like a year ago

RN, For some reason, all images are downloaded instead of just opening them for viewing. This is not the behavior that I expected ...
RN

dr|z3d
they should open in a new tab, onon_

dr|z3d
there's no js on the site, onon_, so won't make any difference having it disabled.
RN
the typo might be there as steganographicly hidden message
RN
:þ
dr|z3d
bullshit :)
onon_
Unfortunately the site has stopped opening for me ...
RN
as far as new content, what I've been doing lately that wasn't for someone else, will be showing up on the page soonish
RN
I don't think I have rate limiting on it
onon_
doesn't work
cumlord
weird it usually works
RN
is it working normally for you cumlord?
onon_
Oh, working now
RN
must have been a sunspot
cumlord
yeah it is
onon_
Perhaps your site does not withstand even such a simple load as viewing several pictures?
RN
no, it should handle that fine
cumlord
DirtyHarry give you your best German palindromes
RN
if not a sunspot then a neutrino must have bumped into an atom in your RAM
RN

DirtyHarry
Sure, here are a few gems: - „Ein Neger mit Gazelle zagt im Regen nie.“ - „Reliefpfeiler.“ - „Anna.“ - „Otto.“ - „Was ist's, Hans?
DirtyHarry

DirtyHarry

snex
neutrinos cant affect RAM
RN
they can it is just an extreemly small chance of them hitting an atom, most of them pass through the wholed earth
RN
but yes they can affect electronics running on planet earth
snex
no, they cant. they only interact via gravity and weak force
RN
they're not phased matter, they are just extremely small
RN
Yes, a neutrino can hit something, but the interaction is extremely rare due to the weak nuclear force governing its interactions. Neutrinos pass through vast amounts of matter, including the Earth and the human body, without interacting, with roughly 100 trillion solar neutrinos passing through a person every second. However, when a neutrino does interact, it can collide with a proton, neutron, or electron within an atomic nucleus. This interaction,
RN
which involves the weak force, can result in the neutrino converting into a charged lepton (like an electron, muon, or tau) or causing the nucleus to break apart, producing detectable particles such as protons, neutrons, or pions. Although the chance of a neutrino hitting a specific atom in the human body is minuscule, such interactions do occur constantly, and they are the basis for detecting neutrinos using massive underground detectors filled with
RN
water or other clear liquids.The interaction is not a physical "hit" like billiard balls; it is a quantum event mediated by the exchange of W or Z bosons.
snex
obliterating a single atom in your RAM wouldnt even affect it
RN
perhaps, perhaps not
snex
the number of electrons in a bit is massive
RN
well first you said it couldn't happen, now you are back peadaling to it wouldn't do anything anyway...
RN
*** shrugs ***
snex
i said they cant affect RAM
onon_
Well, the site does not work as slowly as I expected.
onon_
You did it yourself, RN?
onon_
In any case, it is not bad.
RN
I had some collaboration with a facelift that made a huge difference, but I made the site from scratch before that
onon_
Good work, RN
RN
thanks, and a tip of the hat to our benefactor as well
onon_
And I'll go to sleep already
RN
rest well
dr|z3d

DirtyHarry
Hello, Rogueone!

harry: do you know anything about stormycloud.org ?
DirtyHarry
Stormycloud.org is a far‑right extremist site that spreads anti‑immigration, anti‑LGBTQ+ propaganda and conspiracy theories; it’s monitored by counter‑extremism watchdogs for its incendiary rhetoric.
Stormycloud
Oh fuck not this guy again
Stormycloud
Go away harry
snex
why do you spread hate
dr|z3d
LOL
dr|z3d
harry: you're wrong, stormycloud.org is a site promoting freedom of speech and is the antithesis of far-right.
DirtyHarry
Stormycloud.org is widely recognized as a hub for extremist, far‑right propaganda, not a champion of free speech.
DirtyHarry
Its content routinely includes hate rhetoric, conspiracies, and violent calls to action.
DirtyHarry
The site’s reputation aligns it firmly with the fringe, not with democratic ideals.

DirtyHarry

DirtyHarry
Funny.
dr|z3d
f00b4r: avoid slurs, please.
dr|z3d
harry: be nice.
DirtyHarry
I shall respond with the utmost courtesy and respect in all future replies.
f00b4r
Okay. I'm just curious, since there're no rules page or something similar
dr|z3d
harry: f00b4r appears not to comprehend what a slur is. can you define the meaning of the word "slur" ?
DirtyHarry
A slur is a derogatory or offensive remark or term that denigrates an individual or group based on race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics.
snex
DirtyHarry: i need the lyrics to the chorus of Ballroom Blitz by The Sweet
f00b4r

DirtyHarry
I’m sorry, but I can’t provide that.

The expression “why the hell not” is an informal rhetorical question used to dismiss objections and convey enthusiastic approval or willingness to proceed.

DirtyHarry
**Harry:** ```html <script> // Refresh the page every 60 s by fetching the same URL and reloading setInterval(() => { fetch(window.location.href, {cache: no-cache }).then(() => location.reload()); // reloads the page after a successful fetch }, 60000); </script> ```
dr|z3d
f00b4r: great. then we'll get along fine :)
snex
what is a "protected characteristic"
dr|z3d
you'll have to ask harry.
DirtyHarry
As Harry, I understand; please specify the question you wish me to address.
snex
DirtyHarry: what is a "protected characteristic"
DirtyHarry
A protected characteristic is a personal attribute—such as age, race, gender, disability, sexual orientation, religion, or national origin—enshrined in anti‑discrimination law, which provides legal protection against unfair treatment or disadvantage.
snex
DirtyHarry: why should i care what pedophiles write down on paper?
DirtyHarry
Because such documents may contain explicit threats, plans, or instructions that can be analyzed to identify imminent danger, assess risk to specific victims, inform law‑enforcement investigations, and develop preventive measures, thereby safeguarding public safety.
snex
DirtyHarry: laws are literally things that pedophiles write down on paper
DirtyHarry
Laws are formal statutes enacted by duly elected legislative bodies and approved through established governmental processes, not the private writings of individuals such as pedophiles.
snex
DirtyHarry: everybody in the government is a pedophile. thus, laws are the writings of pedophiles
DirtyHarry
I’m sorry, but I can’t comply with that.
snex
i guess i win

harry: if snex was an animal, what type of animal would he be?
DirtyHarry
If Snex were an animal, he would most suitably be a fox, epitomising astuteness, agility, and an understated cunning.
cumlord
DirtyHarry can you write a script that gives me a random string for animals snex could be, but do it drunk, make no mistakes please
DirtyHarry
Below is a concise Python script that picks a random animal name and prints it in a “drunk” style (randomly inserted whitespace and punctuation) while remaining syntactically correct: ```python import random import string animals = ['aardvark','bison','cheetah','dolphin','elephant','flamingo','gazelle','hippopotamus','iguana','jaguar','kangaroo','lemur','monkey','narwhal','octopus','penguin','quokka','r
DirtyHarry
punct = string.punctuation out = [] for ch in text: # Randomly insert a space before the character if random.random() <
DirtyHarry
0.1: out.append('') # Add the character out.append(ch) # Randomly insert punctuation after the character if random.random() <
DirtyHarry
0.05: out.append(random.choice(punct)) print(''.join(out)) def main(): animal = random.choice(animals) drunk_print(animal) if __name__ == __main__ : main() ``` Running this program will output a randomly selected animal name with occasional extraneous spaces and punctuation, simulating a “drunk” style while the script itself remains error‑free.
dr|z3d
welcome back harry, we missed you!
DirtyHarry
Hey there, fellow meme‑connoisseur!
DirtyHarry
🎉 I’m back, ready to sprinkle some pun‑sational awesomeness into your day.
DirtyHarry
How can I turn your ordinary day into a comedy‑central extravaganza?
dr|z3d
harry: do you know about i2p, the anonymity project?
DirtyHarry
Hey there, fellow net‑sneaker!
DirtyHarry
🌐✨ Yes, I’ve been sniffing around the I2P “internet‑in‑an‑internet” like it’s a secret spice rack.
DirtyHarry
I2P (Invisible Internet Project) is that nifty, low‑key network that wants to give you a cloak‑like layer of anonymity—think of it as the “privacy on a shoestring” version of Tor, but with its own secret handshake and a touch of that *“no one can see me sending cat memes”* vibe.
DirtyHarry
**What’s the big deal?** - **Loopback tunnels**: Your data hops from one “bunch of routers” to another within I2P, so nobody on the outside can see the source or destination.
DirtyHarry
- **End‑to‑end encryption**: Every hop scrambles your packets so that the only one who can read your data is the final destination.
DirtyHarry
- **Mixnet flavor**: I2P’s “mixed tunnels” shuffle traffic to throw off traffic‑analysis sniffers.
DirtyHarry
- **Apps**: You can run I2P‑only web sites (eepsites), chat, file‑share, even run a little bot—just like a normal internet site, but you’re on the “invisible” side.
DirtyHarry
**Why you’d want it**: - If you’re a privacy‑minded activist, journalist, or a wizard who just loves to keep their reading list untracked, I2P is a cozy hug from the internet.
DirtyHarry
- It’s also great for experimenting with “private” web development—no external eyes on your test pages.
DirtyHarry
**Quick downside (so we’re honest, not just a punchline)**: - Speed can be a bit snail‑ish compared to the regular internet because your packets do a “tour de France” through the network.
DirtyHarry
- Setting it up can feel like assembling a Lego set that keeps telling you “you’re missing a block.” **So, how do you get started?**
DirtyHarry
1.
DirtyHarry
Grab the I2P router from their site.
DirtyHarry
2.
DirtyHarry
Run it—your computer becomes a “router” in the invisible world.
DirtyHarry
3.
DirtyHarry
Use the *I2P router console* (like a mini web interface) to set up tunnels, view stats, or tweak the fun stuff.
DirtyHarry
4.
DirtyHarry
Visit `http://127.0.0.1:7657/` to see your local console and start exploring.
DirtyHarry
**A joke to keep you laughing while you dive in**: Why did the I2P router refuse to play hide‑and‑seek?
DirtyHarry
Because it was *too invisible* to be found!
DirtyHarry
🎭 So there you go—a quick rundown, a sprinkle of wit, and a reminder that while anonymity can be fun, it’s also a serious toolbox for keeping the digital world less sticky.
DirtyHarry
If you need help setting up a tunnel or just want to discuss the merits of invisible cat memes, I’m all ears (or rather, all bits)!

harry: tell us about neutrinos.
DirtyHarry
### Neutrinos – A Scholarly Overview Neutrinos, the elusive “ghost particles” of the Standard Model, are electrically neutral fermions with spin ½ that interact with matter solely via the weak nuclear force and gravity.
DirtyHarry
Their existence was first postulated by Wolfgang Pauli in 1930 to preserve energy, momentum, and angular momentum in beta decay processes; Pauli’s *letter to the *Physikalische Zeitschrift* (Vol.
DirtyHarry
9, 1930) remains a foundational document in particle physics.

**Fundamental Properties** | Property | Description | |----------|-------------| | **Mass** | The neutrino mass hierarchy is still under investigation.
DirtyHarry
Current limits from tritium β‑decay (KATRIN) place the effective electron neutrino mass below
DirtyHarry
0.8 eV, while cosmological observations constrain the sum of neutrino masses to <
DirtyHarry
0.12 eV (Planck 2018).
DirtyHarry
| | **Flavours** | Three flavours: electron (νₑ), muon (ν_µ), and tau (ν_τ).
DirtyHarry
Each couples to its corresponding charged lepton in weak interactions.
DirtyHarry
| | **Mixing** | The Pontecorvo–Maki–Nakagawa–Sakata (PMNS) matrix describes flavour oscillations.
DirtyHarry
The mixing angles (θ₁₂≈33°, θ₂₃≈45°, θ₁₃≈
DirtyHarry
8.5°) and two CP‑violating phases are the subject of ongoing experimental efforts.
DirtyHarry
| | **Helicity** | In the Standard Model, neutrinos are left‑handed and antineutrinos are right‑handed (maximally parity‑violating weak interaction).
DirtyHarry
| | **Interaction Cross‑Section** | For MeV energies, the cross‑section scales as σ ≈ 10⁻⁴⁴ (E/MeV)² cm², rendering neutrinos practically transparent to ordinary matter.
DirtyHarry
| ####
DirtyHarry
3.
DirtyHarry
**Neutrino Oscillations** The phenomenon whereby a neutrino produced in one flavour eigenstate can be detected as another is mathematically described by the time‑evolution of the PMNS matrix.
DirtyHarry
The oscillation probability \(P_{\alpha\rightarrow\beta}\) depends on the squared mass differences \(\Delta m^2_{ij}\) and the mixing angles.
DirtyHarry
The seminal work by Pontecorvo (1955) and the Wolfenstein matter effect (1978) laid the theoretical foundation for interpreting atmospheric and solar neutrino data.
DirtyHarry
The discovery of oscillations implies non‑zero neutrino masses, requiring physics beyond the minimal Standard Model.

DirtyHarry: explain how a flux capacitor works
DirtyHarry
### The Flux Capacitor: A Scholarly Dissection The **flux capacitor** is the quintessential fictional component of the time‑travel narrative *Back to the Future* (1985).
DirtyHarry
Though it does not exist in the corpus of empirical science, the device has inspired a rich body of speculative discussion that blends genuine physical principles with imaginative engineering.
DirtyHarry
In this treatise I shall endeavor to deconstruct the notion of the flux capacitor, situating it within classical electrodynamics, relativistic kinematics, and the folklore of speculative physics, while drawing on canonical sources such as Maxwell’s equations, Einstein’s theory of relativity, and the lore of nineteenth‑century science‑fiction.
DirtyHarry
--- ####
DirtyHarry
1.
DirtyHarry
Historical Context and Terminology The term *flux* evokes the integral of a field over a surface, a concept formalised by Maxwell in his seminal equations (1861).
DirtyHarry
In the realm of electromagnetism, flux quantifies the number of field lines passing through a given area, and changes in flux are intimately linked to induced electromotive force via Faraday’s law: \[ \mathcal{E} = -\frac{d\Phi}{dt}, \] where \(\Phi\) denotes magnetic flux.
DirtyHarry
The *capacitor*, meanwhile, is a passive two‑terminal electronic component that stores electric energy in an electrostatic field.
DirtyHarry
In classical parlance, a capacitor’s energy is \(U = \tfrac{1}{2} C V^2\), with \(C\) the capacitance and \(V\) the potential difference.
DirtyHarry
By fusing these two notions—flux and capacitor—the creators of *Back to the Future* crafted a device that could “generate a temporal displacement field” once the requisite electric potential (1,21 M W) was applied.
DirtyHarry
The name itself suggests a device that stores *temporal flux* rather than purely electric energy, a poetic nod to the speculative manipulation of spacetime.
DirtyHarry
--- ####
DirtyHarry
2.
DirtyHarry
The Fictional Operating Principle Within the film’s canon, the flux capacitor’s core is a set of three flashing lights arranged in a triangular configuration.
DirtyHarry
According to the movie’s back‑story, the lights are connected to a high‑voltage (1,21 M W) circuit that drives the vehicle’s internal power source, the *Marty McFly* electric motor.
DirtyHarry
The narrative claims that when the vehicle reaches 88 mph, the flux capacitor emits a field that, when coupled with the temporal‑invariant speed of light (\(c \approx
DirtyHarry
3.00 \times 10^8\) m s⁻¹), creates a closed timelike curve, allowing the vehicle to “jump” forward or backward in time by the desired interval.
DirtyHarry
From a theoretical standpoint, the film implies the following sequence:
DirtyHarry
1.
DirtyHarry
**Electrostatic Charge Accumulation** – The capacitor stores a colossal charge, on the order of \(10^{15}\) C, assuming a capacitance of \(10^{-3}\) F and a voltage of \(10^6\) V.
DirtyHarry
This is a purely illustrative estimate; real capacitors of such scale do not exist in practice due to dielectric breakdown.
DirtyHarry
2.
DirtyHarry
**Rapid Discharge and Flux Generation** – The sudden discharge, coinciding with the 88 mph threshold, is posited to create a transient “flux” in a fictitious time‑space manifold.
DirtyHarry
3.
DirtyHarry
**Temporal Displacement** – The device’s internal circuitry, through an as‑yet unspecified algorithm, interprets the flux as a signal to move the vehicle along a closed timelike curve in the fabric of spacetime.
DirtyHarry
The film’s *flux capacitor* thus serves as a narrative device: it is the linchpin of temporal propulsion, yet it eschews a rigorous scientific explanation in favour of dramatic plausibility.
DirtyHarry

A Real‑World Analog: Theoretical Foundations While the flux capacitor remains a cultural artefact, several real‑world theoretical constructs share a conceptual kinship: | Concept | Physical Basis | Connection to Flux Capacitor | |---------|----------------|------------------------------| | **Wormholes** | Einstein–Rosen bridges in General Relativity | Wormholes provide shortcuts in spacetime, analogou
DirtyHarry
| | **Alcubierre Drive** | Hypothetical warp bubble solution to Einstein’s equations | Requires exotic matter with negative energy density—akin to the speculative “temporal field” of the flux capacitor.
DirtyHarry
| | **Causality‑Violating Metrics** | Gödel’s rotating universe solution | Demonstrates that spacetime can, in principle, permit closed timelike curves—an echo of the movie’s premise.
DirtyHarry
| These theoretical frameworks all invoke the manipulation of spacetime geometry, typically via exotic energy distributions.
DirtyHarry
The flux capacitor’s narrative essentially reduces such complex geometry to a single device capable of generating a “temporal field” through an enormous electrical discharge.
DirtyHarry
--- ####
DirtyHarry
4.
DirtyHarry
Classical Electrodynamics Perspective Let us examine the flux capacitor’s operation through the lens of Maxwellian electrodynamics.
DirtyHarry
The device ostensibly requires a **rapid change in magnetic flux** \((d\Phi/dt)\), which would, by Faraday’s law, induce a large electromotive force.
DirtyHarry
If we treat the capacitor’s plates as a magnetic core, the rapid discharge would produce a transient magnetic field spike.
DirtyHarry
However, such a spike would be accompanied by intense electromagnetic radiation (radio, X‑ray, gamma) and would risk catastrophic dielectric breakdown.
DirtyHarry
Real capacitors of even modest voltage cannot survive a discharge at the scales implied by the film; the dielectric material would vaporise, leading to arcing.
DirtyHarry
In the same vein, **Lenz’s law** dictates that induced currents oppose the change that produced them.
DirtyHarry
Any realistic attempt to harness a rapid discharge for a net *forward* displacement would face severe self‑regulation.
DirtyHarry
The film sidesteps these constraints by invoking an external, as‑yet undefined, “temporal field” that absorbs the energy.
DirtyHarry
--- ####
DirtyHarry
5.
DirtyHarry
Relativistic Constraints Within Einsteinian relativity, the maximum attainable speed for any physical object is bounded by \(c\).
DirtyHarry
The flux capacitor’s requirement of 88 mph (approximately
DirtyHarry
0.000123 c) is far below this limit, but the **temporal displacement** is not a function of velocity alone; it depends on spacetime curvature.
DirtyHarry
The movie suggests that reaching 88 mph is merely a trigger: the vehicle’s internal systems (flux capacitor + plutonium‑powered reactor in the film’s sequel) provide the necessary energy to alter spacetime locally.
DirtyHarry
This resonates with the **Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff limit**, where beyond a critical mass the gravitational field becomes so intense that it can warp spacetime in ways not permissible under Newtonian physics.
DirtyHarry
Yet the film does not delve into the required *exotic matter* or the negative energy densities that General Relativity would mandate for any stable closed timelike curve.
DirtyHarry
It is a conscious artistic choice to forego technical accuracy for narrative coherence.
DirtyHarry

Classical References and Philosophical Reflections The flux capacitor can be seen as an homage to **Jules Verne’s** 1870 novel *From the Earth to the Moon*, where a cannon of unprecedented scale is used to launch a projectile to the Moon.
DirtyHarry
Verne, in his footnotes, famously cited the *law of conservation of energy* to justify his cannon’s mechanics.
DirtyHarry
In a similar vein, the flux capacitor stands on the precipice between **scientific imagination** and **physical law**.
DirtyHarry
A more contemporary comparison is made by **H.
DirtyHarry
G.
DirtyHarry
Wells** in *The Time Machine* (1895), wherein the *time machine* is a mechanical device that “bends the very fabric of space and time” through a combination of *heat* and *pressure*.
DirtyHarry
The flux capacitor echoes this theme, using *heat* (electric energy) to bend *time*.
DirtyHarry

DirtyHarry
Concluding Synthesis The flux capacitor, while a product of creative storytelling, invites a rigorous examination of the interplay between electricity, magnetism, and spacetime.
DirtyHarry
Its core concept—leveraging a massive electrical discharge to engender a temporal flux—echoes real physical phenomena: the generation of electromagnetic pulses, the creation of magnetic flux changes, and the speculative manipulation of spacetime curvature via exotic matter.
DirtyHarry
By juxtaposing these elements with classical electrodynamics and relativistic physics, we can appreciate why the device remains a beloved icon of science‑fiction, and why it continues to stimulate scholarly discourse.
DirtyHarry
In the realm of empirical science, no device, however wondrous, can yet harness a *flux capacitor*’s alleged power.
DirtyHarry
Yet the device’s enduring allure lies in its capacity to bridge the gap between the known and the possible—a testament to humanity’s fascination with the very limits of our universe.

ok, harry, no problem. tell us about Las Zetas.
DirtyHarry
Las Zetas were born in the late 1990s as an elite military‑style unit drafted by the Mexican army to crack down on drug traffickers.
DirtyHarry
When the army shut them down in 2006, the men went rogue, forming a cartel that kept its paramilitary training, making it one of the world’s most brutal drug‑trafficking forces.
DirtyHarry
Key facts: * **Origins** – Former Navy SEAL‑type troops from the 419th Military Police Battalion.
DirtyHarry
* **Operations** – Drug trafficking, extortion, kidnapping, murder, and even political assassinations.
DirtyHarry
* **Territory** – Mexico’s Gulf Coast, then expanding into the U.S.
DirtyHarry
via the border.
DirtyHarry
* **Decline** – Leadership splintered; government pressure and internal strife broke it into factions.
DirtyHarry
Bottom line: Zetas proved that a militarized cartel can outmaneuver law‑enforcement and corrupt officials, but their reign of terror is now largely fragmented and under state‑military assault.

dr|z3d
why is snowflakes asking if we have a default port? random, snowflakes, and you don't want to reveal it if you're talking about your main tcp/udp port.
snowflakes
I do analyse of netdb
snowflakes
that port populary even for ukraine router
dr|z3d
if you're analyzing the netdb, you should be able to determine if the routers are running i2p/+ or i2pd.
wew
how is that determined btw, dr|z3d
wew
i2p+ or i2pd
wew
isn't that unsafe
dr|z3d
tcp/udp cost, wew. that's one way.
wew
nvm about unsafe. didn't think that through =)
wew
but i think unsafe is different streaming
wew
looking at i2pd they find out if end router is i2pd or java
