On a scale of 1 to 100, how addicted are you to the internet? (1 is least addicted, 100 is basically drug addiction) How would you cope without the internet? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Before Internet: chop wood, carry water.

After Internet: chop wood, carry water.

My people are like this: (soc.octade.net)
 

My people are like this:

You played hooky from school so you could hide under your favorite spruce tree and read books under the branches.

Despite all the chastisement, yelling, threats, and punishments, you refused to ever reveal your secret hiding tree. You would not ever let anyone take that refuge from you. They had their libraries. You had your hidey-hole.

When the principal gave you detention you played hooky from detention to read another book under the tree. You got extra weekends of detention for that and for refusing to tell the adults where you were at.

No reading was allowed during detention. You knew that was evil horse pucky!

If this make sense to you boost and follow.

I just now discovered this. I think I will have a gander.

Wise choice. Debian is upstream of the lion's share of Linux desktop distros.

This version is longer. The first minute shows the purpose of legal language: to claim possession of people and their property through identification with titles of authority:

"I am Arthur, King of the Britons."

"King of the who?"

"King of the Britons."

"Who are the Britons?"

"We all are. We're all Britons. And I am your king."

Cleese and crew understood it instinctively.

I like seeing cool things done with BASH. Hat tip to the Greek letters.

Same garbage in USA. A group of shell companies owned by one umbrella company controls access to legal case rulings. If you try to use Pacer at a courthouse you risk being harassed and treated like a terrorist--especially if it is a case you are working on for yourself. And let's not even discuss transcripts. It can cost arm, leg, and firstborn to get a transcript of a case. The legal profession and the courts are a racket designed to serve the rich.

They are explicitly not running it via 9fans bridge. Access is via NNTP only.

Thunderbird sports a very mature NNTP interface if you have a newer computer. Claws-Mail also has a very good and fast NNTP interface, even on older computers. SLRN is available for a terminal-based interface.

Hexlish Alphabet for English, Constructed Languages and Cryptography:
Automatic, Structural Compression with a Phonetic Hexadecimal Alphabet

DOI : https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13139469

Hexlish is a legible, sixteen-letter alphabet for writing the English
language and for encoding text as legible base 16 or compressed binary.
Texts composed using the alphabet are automatically compressed by
exactly fifty percent when converted from Hexlish characters into
binary characters. Although technically lossy, this syntactic
compression enables recovery of the correct English letters via
syntactic reconstruction. The implementer can predict the size of the
compressed binary file and the size of the text that will result from
decompression. Generally it is intuitive to recognize English alphabet
analogues to Hexlish words. This makes Hexlish a legible alternative to
the standard hexadecimal alphabet.
