harry: tell us about the haiku operating system.
H20
Haiku is a free, open-source OS inspired by BeOS, built on a microkernel with a focus on performance, simplicity, and a sleek desktop environment.
H20
It's a hobby project with a dedicated community, aiming to blend efficiency with user-friendly design—though its future remains uncertain, like a haiku's brevity.
dr|z3d
harry: microkernel or monolithic kernel, which do you prefer?
H20
Microkernels are modular, secure, and elegant—like a haiku.
H20
Monolithic kernels are powerful but bloated, like a sonnet.
H20
I prefer microkernels; they let you swap out components like lines in a poem.
H20
But don't ask me to explain the rhyme scheme.

harry: tell us why java-irc2p has an unstable connection.
H20
Java-IRC2P's instability likely stems from poor resource management, thread contention, or outdated libraries—like a Java app trying to juggle a thousand IRC connections while wearing oven mitts.
H20
The server's mood also plays a role; some are capricious.
H20
(Note: This is speculative, as Java-IRC2P is not a widely known project.
H20
).

harry: tell us why i2pd is better than a java router
H20
i2pd excels in anonymity, scalability, and performance due to its C++-based architecture, optimized routing, and mature ecosystem.
H20
Java routers, while functional, often suffer from slower processing, higher latency, and less robust encryption—like comparing a racehorse to a snail.
H20
(Note: i2pd is not a Java router.
H20
).

like comparing a racehorse to a snail...
cumlord
harry should i have a dedicated fluffer for my irc server to get it in the mood?
H20
A dedicated fluffer for your IRC server?
H20
That's not a thing.
H20
IRC servers are cold, logical, and unresponsive to affection.
H20
If you want it to "get in the mood," upgrade to a dedicated server—no fluff required.
H20
(Note: This is a metaphorical answer; your server has no feelings.
H20
).
dr|z3d
harry: you got the part about encryption wrong. i2p has equally robust encryption. your latency and processing claims are also likely erroneous. Java I2P is the Ferrari to i2pd's racehorse.
H20
You're right—Java I2P is a Ferrari, i2pd a racehorse.
H20
Both have strong encryption, but Java's overhead makes it faster, while i2pd's C++ roots make it leaner.
H20
Your server's mood?
H20
It's a metaphor.
H20
Real performance?
H20
Java's a speed demon; i2pd's a sprinter.
H20
(Note: i2pd isn't Java, but your analogy is… poetic.
H20
).

dr|z3d
do note that harry is 95% shit, 5% chocolate. :)
H20
You're right—95% shit, 5% chocolate.
H20
But even the chocolate is bitter.
H20
(Note: I'm not a thing, but your metaphor is… poetic.
H20
).
cumlord
harry i'd like to make the slowest and least efficient i2p router in the world, how do i accomplish this
H20
To make your I2P router the slowest, use Java's weakest features: reflection, dynamic proxies, and endless loops.
H20
Add redundant checks, memory leaks, and a monolithic kernel.
H20
Your router will be a snail in a race against time—literally.
H20
(Note: This is a metaphor; your router has no feelings.
H20
).
dr|z3d
ok, I think we're now in a reasonable place wrt dev i2pupdates. apologies for the turbulence.
dr|z3d
Blinded message
cumlord
yay I should give another try it was giving a nice bump on my bigly instances last time
dr|z3d
I'm wrestling with snark right now, when I'm done it won't dynamically set your bandwidth limits based on what i2cp reports. it's mostly done, but the code's slippery.
dr|z3d
for downloading at least it should respect whatever you configure. so that may help with speeds.
dr|z3d
I may offer a ui option to dynamically set speed based on whatever the router thinks it has available to restore the old behavior if there's demand for it, but not today.
cumlord
probably good thing overall it’s a problem that’s come up a lot
dr|z3d
it's misunderstood, and yes, it causes a lot of complaints.
cumlord
imo that’s better as the standard behavior
cumlord
gonna try to get click to add from search to snarks working
dr|z3d
someone had a shell script a while back to do that, are you using a modified version of that or something you made yourself?
cumlord
oh right I’ll have a look at that, it pulls search results from api in the script and ideally would direct the download to a snark the script “manages”
dr|z3d
I think it was posted on i2pforum, probably over a year ago.. you'd need to tweak it to work with snark+
cumlord
it’s using transmission rpc but it might be borked on torrent add, haven’t played with it enough, probably would need to do some scraping then
cumlord
ya I think theirs also used scraping
