Hi guys.
There's a political scandal about some recorded audio of minister of finaces in the Czech Republic and it got me thinking, how to check whether the audio was edited (tempered with) or not?

Can we rethink our shared library linking paradigm, specifically with regards to GNU/Linux, for a second?

As far as I can tell we have 2 choices:

1) Our current system which allows software to share common code reducing disk space and allowing that software to use upgraded libraries without having to be recompiled.
---
downsides: Although on paper it's foolproof, in practice it leads to our environments being fairly delicate, distro maintainers having to re-invent the wheel all the time (the REAL reason you can't install shit from one distro on another has nothing to do with package manager, it's that that piece of software was tediously trimmed to work on a particular setup and not on any other), and the inability to install multiple versions of most software without using "prefixes" or other containers.

OR

2) No linking. Software is rock solid and can be run and compiled on just about any environment.
---
downsides: Small bug fixes always require a complete recompile (when that fix is in a piece of common code used redundantly in 100's of programs on your machine, and when similar fixes come out routinely every few days it can be quite tedious), this method also requires more disk space

Are these really the only 2 choices? With all the intelligent people that have contributed to our software development over the years we really can't come up with anything better?

I mean, I can pull an alternative out of my ass right now. Why not add an additional layer of symlinks whereby each program links to its own personal symlinks instead of ones shared by the entire system. By default those personal links can just point to the system-wide libraries as usual, however in the case that something breaks you can just force those personal links to point to _exact_ versions of what it requires and then you're _guaranteed_ to always get running software.
This can be handled automatically by the package manager.

Why is nobody trying to solve this sort of thing anymore?

Does anyone else feel like the governments have ruined the internet. I remember in like 2005 the internet was a lot of fun but now it feels lame. There is an account for everything and the government spies on you and there are noobs everywhere.

I've come up with a proposed name for the project:
SPONKNET
Supreme
Proxy
Obfuscated
Net
Kentledge
NETWORK

I really think we should just build an 'internet2' so to speak. We could start an indiegogo campaign to buy a couple of servers to start and use a tor-like technology to allow users to dial into sponknet until we get the resources to build infrastructure.

It would be relatively easy to write a python script to scrape internet 1.0 on a second server for pages on a daily basis statically - If there are dynamic elements we could just redirect users to the 1.0 site with a warning that the government might be watching.

Thoughts?

If there is interest I think I can try to spin up a Git Hub repository for some coding

Hey Anon, I'm bored. Throw some programming project ideas at me. Here is one I thought of when pondering just now:

AUTOMATED /pol/ TROLL DICTIONARY
-----------------------------------------------------------
1) Manually browse /pol/ to find posts that trigger the board
2) Scrape /pol/ using the manualy discovered phrases/words as analytical data and use post correlation to determine the most triggering words/phrases, through relations to the base data
3) Silently spread the discovered info on /pol/'s least favorite websites
4) ????
5) profit

What else you got, Anon?
