I'm not going to recap the recent history of 8chan, or 8ch.net. It appeared that it was dead. But, no, it's still alive. That, or someone has put up a reasonable facsimile thereof. 8kun.net It appears they are having some kind of issues, pages take many seconds to load. I was curious how long it would take them to get back online. I'm also curious if some of their stupid shit will be toned down. Not all boards are operational yet, it seems. Enjoy . . . ?

4chan or 8chan or even Reddit for that matter.

It is subtle, but there might be a few hints hidden in there that we are not the same person :-p

4chan's /wg board is really good. Wallpapers of all kinds, more than you'll ever need.

I haven't found a chan yet that I want to spend any time on. Like any other trashy site, people should be aware of them, but there is no need to join them. I've also tracked down and visited various sites around the world, claimed to be terrorist sites, spy sites, hacker sites, whatever. Some of them I couldn't even get into, but I did see their front pages, at the least. There's a LOT of stuff on the web that Mr. Average American is unaware of.

And obviously do not know Japanese, bakasama! Hachi-sama! 8sama! Too old.

I was reminded today that the US is only about 5% of the world's population. Japan is such a TINY little place, even in comparison to the US. No, I don't have time to learn Japanese. If I were to make the effort to learn a new language, it would probably be Chinese. Thank you for your interest, though!

Can't get past TLS handshake, cycling at protocol. Their hardware is extremely inadequate or they are under attack. Most probably, both.

It was Cloudflare ditching 8chan that caused them to crash and burn back in August.
Any site that achieves a degree of notoriety will be DDoSed off the web immediately if they don't pay the toll.
Also, there is this [cnn.com].

The net is not anymore what it used to be. Maybe if we tell millenials about web was created by boomers, they could invent something

The millennials will build local area meshnets and USB/Wifi dead drops for community organizing, and the boomers will build long-haul HAM radio backbones to connect everything.
Maybe. I can't imagine it going down any other way. Except for just using the existing internet with plenty of decentralized protocols.

Protocols, sure. Some people close to me work on new decentralized protocols, but their stage is still theoretical mostly and too academic. One of my ideas I was able to convey to them was versor addresses, hamiltonian style chaotic routing (slerp is cheap to compute) and so. They are currently digesting that. What I was not able to pass to them yet completely is... octaplex. But with 5G networks and ipv6 everywhere as a base transport, maybe we could get a quite new landscape, I am looking forward to this. But what I am very sure, we all need many different and independent protocols to fragment the cyberspace effectively, to prevent and evade enforcement, so it is quite essential that many different groups shall start inventing their own stuff.

I'm waiting for the FacebookNet or StarLinkNet. You know someone's going try it sometime.
