he probably freaked out and waved an electromagnet over everything
dr|z3d
yeah, that'll be it, snex.
dr|z3d
*** chuckles. ***
orignal
where have you been in cancun?
dr|z3d
zzz: did you manage to get to update.skank.i2p/reports/datura-to-i2p-improvements.html ?
zzz
we had a brief discussion here but I think prompted by some tweets, don't recall a "report"
zzz
and I don't have that hostname in my addressbook so definitely havent seen it
zzz
looks like some AI generated thing?
dr|z3d
is that your stock reponse to everything these days? :)
zzz
nah.
zzz
could have some good stuff in it
zzz
but tried to get some datura person over here and failed. sounds like they live over on tor
dr|z3d
if the doc's useful, great, if not, oh well. if nothing else, it makes the specs document a bit easier on the eyes.
zzz
yeah thanks. think I need to understand datura better first. some of it is pretty headscratchy
dr|z3d
an easy win is probably variable length tunnels, if we can do that without compromising anonymity. I guess we could, if we accept slightly more latency.
dr|z3d
instead of defaults of 3 hops, default to 3hops +0/1 variance, maybe. not much needs doing, though obviously would only be active for new routers.
orignal
dr|z3d where have you been in cancun?
orignal
4 hops is a problem for IB
orignal
because 5 records
dr|z3d
*** laughs. ***
orignal
why is it funny?
zzz
I was joking about drz in cancun. I've been there many times, but don't have any insights into his travels...
orignal
I'm going to cancun soon ))
orignal
but they question what did YOU firget in cancun? ))
orignal
you have the same coast nearby
orignal
your place
orignal
however back to 4 hops tunnels, it's an issue for short TBMs
dr|z3d
don't get sucked into zzz's bullshit machine, orignal :)
zzz
better be soon before it gets insanely hot. I've been to Isla Mujeres and the butterfly/turtle sanctuary, to XCaret, Tulum,
zzz
snorkeled over the giant statue in the water on the way to Isla Mujeres
zzz
haven't been to Chichen Itza but my whole family was there
zzz
recommend all of it. Xcaret is now like $150 though
orignal
xcaret is rivieva maja
orignal
*riviera
dr|z3d
ok, 4 hops, if it's an issue inbound, can we fix it?
zzz
its really cool
orignal
Xcaret park your mean?
orignal
seen crocodiles there?
orignal
zzz, how can we fix 4 hops IB?
zzz
yes. cave via inner tube, etc
orignal
since 5 records
orignal
I wouldn't say hot, it's always like 30-32C there
orignal
but seaweeds
zzz
re: 4 hops IB, there's nothing to fix, a 5 record build just gets split into two tunnel messages. it works fine
orignal
it gets split
zzz
just a little less efficient but no big deal
zzz
right
orignal
but the fact it's 2 messages means longer tunnel
orignal
so everybody sees it's 4+ hops
orignal
sorry 3+ hops
orignal
my suggestion is to send variable TBM
orignal
istead
zzz
sure. not a big problem, not a difficult solution
zzz
dont think I saw crocodiles at xcaret but it was a long time ago
zzz
mid-90s
orignal
it was place where they were supposed to be
orignal
even sign
orignal
everybody was looking around but not crocodiles
orignal
but seriously what was a reason for you to go there?
orignal
since you don't live in an ass of the world with snow in april
zzz
xcaret was tiny back then there was no hotel or anything around it, middle of nowhere
orignal
huh? Xcaret resort right next to it
zzz
i've lived in plenty of cold places, not ass of world though
zzz
not in 1992 iirc
orignal
oh I see what you mean
orignal
not now
zzz
now they have that new boondoggle airport too
orignal
what "X" is probouced as "sh" in Mexcan Spanish. does anybody know?
zzz
cancun a good cheap vacation, easy to get to, no hassles, very americanized. can't go wrong
orignal
4.5 hours for us
zzz
it's like the las vegas of mexico
orignal
*from
snex
X in mexico doesnt have any single pronunciation. it depends on where in the word it appears
snex
mexico - "me hee co"
snex
xcaret - "shka ret"
snex
sometimes its more like "zsh"
orignal
right I hear Xcaret as "шкарет"
orignal
e.g. shkaret
orignal
mexico is mejico in spahish
orignal
no?
dr|z3d
meh-hicko.
snex
it can be Ж Ш or Х basically
orignal
well English is not phoenetic langauge
zzz
wonder if the carlos n' charlies still has a bandito guy that pours tequila shots down your throat
orignal
you can't write down all sounds
snex
almost none of the words with x in them are "spanish" but rather descend from aztec, maya, etc
orignal
Russian Х is H
snex
yes i know
orignal
and no "loud" version of it Russian
orignal
and there is one in Ukrainian
orignal
that's how we recognize thier accent ))
orignal
this sound is form of "g", but I can't type it
orignal
because my keyboards is Russian, not Ukrainian
snex
mongolia uses it for "kh"
orignal
it's for "x"
orignal
but what's is the pair for "kh"?
orignal
I would write it as "gkh"
snex
as in chinggis XAAH
orignal
we just say "хан"
snex
english doesnt really use that sound except for foreign words
snex
thus we dont have any consistent letter for it. sometimes "kh" sometimes "x"
snex
sometimes "ch"
orignal
I think the real one is Greek "hi" or like this
snex
chi, also looks like X
orignal
probaby, we called in "хи" in Russian
orignal
yes, like x
orignal
zzz knows Greek
zzz
yeah, 8th grade Latin class, teacher got bored, taught us Greek for a month
orignal
but what for? greek is dead language
orignal
Latin might make sesne in medicine
snex
greek is dead? thats news to the greeks
snex
latin is the dead one
orignal
how many peeople speak greek?
snex
everybody that lives there, at least
orignal
latin is dead, but still used in medicine
zzz
like I said, bored teacher that didn't give a shit
orignal
and Vatican speaks Latin
orignal
they should have taught you Russian instead ))
orignal
300M native speakers
zzz
my dad told me I should learn german because it was the language of science. that was the post-ww2 environment
orignal
it was before ww2
orignal
my gradma learned German in school
zzz
sure but that was still his recommendation in the 70s
orignal
after ww2 almost everybody learned english
snex
yeah we took all the nazi scientists and taught them english and gave them fake identities
zzz
I remember going to Los Alamos ca. 1970
zzz
