asciilifeform: (the traditional ru kbd is virtually unknown among emigre folks, everybody uses 'translit' like the chinese do)

asciilifeform: i, like many ru folks, do this in the keyboard

asciilifeform: and then decode.

asciilifeform: 'polish' encode cyrillic, as gnarly diphthongs, etc in latin

asciilifeform: was just about to say.

asciilifeform: i am also not opposed to ^

asciilifeform: 16 bit is enough to hold even kanji and other savagery.

asciilifeform: e.g., i flip a bit and now ????????

asciilifeform: and leads to inevitable shenanigans with buffer overflows

asciilifeform: which is profoundly retarded.

asciilifeform: in that utf8 makes strlen an O(N) operation

asciilifeform: incidentally there can be a good argument for 16bit chars.

asciilifeform: l0l

asciilifeform: incidentally, mircea_popescu would do well to remember that the bulk of the material worth reading accessible on the net is non-latin (specifically cyrillic!1111)

asciilifeform: which it will.

asciilifeform: what happens when it gets dumped into the hopper anyway.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: depends what means 'cleanly'

asciilifeform: phf: does cmucl have native threads yet ?

asciilifeform: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1207.2/02579.html << vintage lol

asciilifeform: tell me again what the point of cmucl is, when there is sbcl

asciilifeform: i wish i had time to test this.

asciilifeform: potentially useful.

asciilifeform: phf: neato

asciilifeform: in other nyooz, 'pogo4' is back on crapazon, $18

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu, as usual, nails it.

asciilifeform: and in any case i'd airdrop radio relays

asciilifeform: and i'm not rich.

asciilifeform: but this is an idea for ~rich folks~

asciilifeform: i ~could~ see an argument for airdropping such thing behind nazi lines

asciilifeform: aha

asciilifeform: i won't make tv either.

asciilifeform: it is exactly the kind of item the chinese excell at, and attempting to compete with them on the field would be moronic.

asciilifeform: buy from lowest bidder.

asciilifeform: these aren't cryptoinstruments, parachutes that one lives and dies by.

asciilifeform: go, buy.

asciilifeform: didn't punkman link to chinese co. already happily selling ?

asciilifeform: the final muzzle to put in enemy's mouth.

asciilifeform: i cite the cable method as a kind of final solution.

asciilifeform: works on any idiot copyprotection thing.

asciilifeform: instant decoder.

asciilifeform: take an official lcd tv, attach fpga where the panel ribbon cable was.

asciilifeform: at any rate it is not hard to make a box like this

asciilifeform: hm site must've been 'slashdotted' at time of article then

asciilifeform: aha!

asciilifeform: problem solved.

asciilifeform: don't buy the boobytrapped player

asciilifeform: and why even

asciilifeform: 1 per disk

asciilifeform: how many times it is done ?

asciilifeform: so?

asciilifeform: l0l

asciilifeform: possibly reversed causation here

asciilifeform: 'how ~little~ sand in the developmental gears'

asciilifeform: with, e.g., myelin.
