@foone I’ve often thought about writing something like this, modern open implementations of analog video DRM. But is there any very specific public documentation about how exactly they worked, enough to properly reimplement them?

@foone I reverse engineer malware, which I don’t exactly love because they have moved way obvious checks based on one branch (as, of course, have some legitimate developers). It’s getting harder and harder. If more of those malware authors lived in different countries, they could easily get jobs making anti-piracy stuff. But now that I’m thinking of it as repeated endless software cracking…maybe this seems more fun??

@futurebird my grandmother’s cat paid me 50 cents once for services rendered, when I was like 9. Was I supposed to pay taxes on that?

@futurebird yeah and I mean obviously the stock market is not gambling on your expectations of other people’s expectations of your expectations

@futurebird like 10 years ago I was watching a 20-year-old train VHS tape I got at a thrift store, with my roommate at like midnight. It had all the latest locomotive reviews and video from this dude’s local train club. He had his phone number on the back, in another state across the country. My roommate called him up. “Hey, are you the train guy?”(Sleepy) “…yes?”“Uh…cool….so…are you still making those train videos?” “Yes, but could you maybe call back tomorrow? It’s 3AM.”The problem was not some random weirdos calling him about his train tapes, the problem was the time of day.

@futurebird having had to try to figure out this completely ambiguous labeling on my own refrigerator, I can confidently tell you that I have no idea and whoever did this is bad at their job

@futurebird is this a show about ants? Or just show and tell with some ants in person? I’m in dire need of long-form video just showing ants in their colony doing their thing for hours at a time. My cat demands this and I can’t find much of it.

@futurebird I see…well….how about going into the ant content business? My cat would be a very loyal customer

@futurebird mainly my name these days, to the point that when I was forced to write out a whole sentence by surprise when taking the GRE I could barely do it. It looked worse than when I learned in 3rd grade, pretty embarrassing

@foone why is it hard to emulate correctly?
