Waypipe exists. Somebody needs to do the integration so you can run ssh -W though.

Why? Isn’t “waypipe ssh” more “the UNIX” way.

There is also wors.

Who do you think created the "gulag"?

Doesn't GStreamer mostly use ffmpeg plugins?

It's probably a good idea to follow the path of this article and get everything working in a VM first where booting is faster and it's easier to sniff packets. Once you have vanilla OVMF working you can try booting real servers.

There's an entire book on this topic if you want to read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rise_of_the_Warrior_Cop

to me, the most interesting, actionable police-ology has been reforming two trends:

- modern 911, which rewards reactive, rather than proactive, policing

- the ever expanding mission of police officers. there's only one uniformed police officer class. experts and police all want specialization, just like in the medical field.

from a police chief:

> We’re asking cops to do too much in this country. We are. Every societal failure, we put it off on the cops to solve. Not enough mental health funding, let the cops handle it…. Here in Dallas we got a loose dog problem; let’s have the cops chase loose dogs. Schools fail, let’s give it to the cops … That’s too much to ask. Policing was never meant to solve all those problems

warrior versus guardian isn't really actionable - what are you going to do, pass a law that says that training materials have to say guardian? versus, pass a law that appropriates funding for specialized workforces, that's par for the course in municipalities.

Words indicate intentions, and framing changes mindset.

Starting by changing the names of the ranks to British-style ranks and changing the training materials to the American guardian / British Peelian mindset wouldn't suddenly fix everything, but it would at least be a start.

>what are you going to do, pass a law that says that training materials have to say guardian?

What if you did? You don't think that would have any effect at all?

All recent servers support HTTP boot.

If they can train the classifier to have fewer false positives that would be great.

why would they? This safety stuff is a money maker & wealthy elite corporation solidifier.

This is the take off of the 'permanent underclass'; Anthropics safety delusion will enshittify very nicely for the rich and powerful.

This kind of pun is standard for The Register but yes, it is confusing.

Weren't T1s running 576 MTU back then?

IIRC, T-lines had no inherent MTU. The MTU is determined by whatever layer-2 encapsulation ran over the T1:

PPP → default MTU 1500 Cisco HDLC → 1500 Frame Relay → typically 1500+ (often configurable higher)

So a typical IP MTU on a T1 link was 1500 bytes, same as Ethernet — chosen partly so packets could traverse Ethernet ↔ T1 boundaries without fragmenting.

576 is from RFC 791 (IPv4):

* Every IP host must be able to reassemble a datagram of at least 576 bytes.

* 576 became the conventional default MTU for "non-local" destinations — i.e., when a host didn't know the path MTU and wanted a value virtually guaranteed not to be fragmented anywhere. (576 − 20 IP − 20 TCP = 536 bytes of payload, the classic TCP default MSS.)

You'd also see 576 as a common default on dial-up/PPP links and X.25, which is probably the source of the association — not T1.

But re-assemble didn't necessarily mean transmit. My understanding (and this is quoting from memory from over 20 years ago) is that some commercial UNIXs from eons ago didn't ever really test dialup or other other such settings as they were often in more commercial settings and other protocols were often used before everything converged on IP. I'm sure these were also unpatched machines.

It was just annoying enough where some random connections didn't work very well.
