THE INTERNET

@valere so what ? Stop looking at the finger…

[worldtravelerall7@mastodon.world]

@valere I thought it looked like this

[troupier@framapiaf.org]

@valere don't care that's a good one.

So AI is the reason for this Meme in more than one way.

@valere *See also: society.*

@valere nice detail, the small pillar maintained by a single person in Nebraska in the last 10yrs is still standing

[alpacamale@social.cologne]

@valere Yeah, some of the lines are weird. It's funny, it's not like this would be particularly hard to draw without AI.

@valere @LunaDragofelis @aria this response is best followed up by removing the post ^^

[madness832@mstdn.party]

@valere I have some duct tape!

[lispi314@udongein.xyz]

@aria @valere It was.

The OSI folks were complaining about it 40 years ago before it ever became popular.

The majority of the flaws I complain about were glaringly obvious at the design stage.

But corposcum & fascist sabotage means we're stuck with TCP/IP instead.

@hsza @aria @valere @LunaDragofelis There is edit capacity that works for images. Why not just use GNU Imp to remake it manually and replace the image?

[tusharhero@mathstodon.xyz]

@lispi314 @aria @valere pretty sure OSI is younger than 40

@tusharhero@mathstodon.xyz @aria@awawa.club @valere@hostux.social The protocol wars date back to at least the 1980s (we are in 202X).

Cyclades is from 1976 at latest.

[tusharhero@mathstodon.xyz]

@lispi314 @aria @valere I think I misunderstood

[p3ter@mastodon.social]

@valere #Historian #LongTerm #Preservation senses tingling:

Missing metadata:
* #DublinCore.Date
* DublinCore.Source

I assume, someone has a working and complete backup of "The Internet" to restore from?

[simon_brooke@mastodon.scot]

@tusharhero @lispi314 @aria @valere

You bet wrong. I was running comms from Lancaster to Manchester, Reading and London over X.25 (one of the Orange Book protocols) in 1986. The Orange Book was then ten years old, so OSI is at least fifty years old.

[v_d_richards@literatur.social]

@AndiPopp @valere

My thoughts exactly

[v_d_richards@literatur.social]

@frawst @valere

Please no

@valere I've seen these shapes before in another toot. Obviously based on 'the internet depends on one random guy' meme. But the one I saw had labels. As I recall the collapsed section of the Internet on the left is the bit that is vibe coded. Perhaps someone can find it?
