aah, so I had understood it correctly, after all. A and B could be Unix machines, they could be running restrictive firewalls, and attempting to connect to them with some protocol they didn't support could get them to block further attempts to connect -

o que você queria, que eu perdesse a piada? :-)
tá tudo bem com seu computador? eu fiquei bem preocupado que estivesse sob controle remoto, que você fosse alvo. espero que você tome precauções contra isso. -

surely they can be implemented
anyhow, it wasn't clear from the problem statement, so to speak, that A and B were also lisp machines. all the conversation about ftp, rcp, scp, rsync, set me down the wrong path. -

s/IP/network address/ if you wish.
firewalls are by no means exclusive to unix systems
I remember a different system that used A: and B: in the context of copying :-) -

quizás no haga falta, pero defiendo sí, porque me molesta la muchas formas de discriminación, y es específicamente, la discriminación linguística a los neurodivergentes, es una que me afecta directamente
el debate era sobre una cuestión linguística, no sobre la instancia de agresión específica, pero entiendo que mentes diferentes tienen diferentes percepciones de contextos, y eso abre la oportunidad para malentendidos como este. me imagino que ese episódio se ha vuelto un tema sensible en españa, pero a mi me parece muy evidente que el tema no era esa agresión específicamente, sino el significado de los términos y los riesgos de incluir ofensas díspares bajo un término que sugiere ofensas muchísimo graves
para mi, una distinción crucial es entre "reconocer agresión" y "punir como crímen". otra distinción crucial es entre la situación específica y el caso general. ¿te parecería bien tratar todos los besos "robados" como crímenes? a mi no, porque entiendo que muchos besos "robados" en realidad no lo son, son parte normal del inicio de relaciones consensuales. muchos besos "robados" son realmente accidentales, y otros tantos besos son diferencias culturales: piensa los besos rusos, piensa que en diferentes partes de brasil se saludan con uno o dos o tres besos en la cara, y a veces esa diferencia resulta besos "robados" accidentales. ¿te parecen crímenes?
seguro, en el episófio referencia, fue agresión grave, pero la discusión era más general -

unless the remote host has a very strict firewall that blocks IPs that attempt unexpected connections, and the implementation starts by trying some unexpected means to access that host -

@quinn You make excellent points. But even if Gazans were enfranchised, the "responsibility" argument is untenable.
Are the people making it OK with Hamas holding Israeli civilians responsible for the government that oppresses, starves and bombs Palestine? I rather doubt it.
As far as I can tell, in both cases "hold responsible" is a euphemism for murdering civilians.
That knife cuts both ways and should be left in the drawer.

I'd have said free software rather than open source, but even then, the software itself can be enshittified, but that won't affect users as long as users have kept their freedom. e.g., if you accept doing your computing through SaaSS, you can face enshittification if your data is locked in, even if the software is technically free (to the service provider, or even to yourself). -

you may be right about how the term shifted, and that's certainly a disappointing development.
however, that "proprietary software is by design harmful to its users in the long run" is really *not* the point I was trying to make. that was merely a starting point. the point I wanted to make was that, besides the injustice of subjugation that all nonfree software imposes on users, it can get even *worse* depending on how enshittifiable the software is. e.g., software that you install on a computer and run offline is not enshittifiable, whereas software that you download from a supplier every time you wish to run it is as enshittifiable as it gets -

1. no es un bot
2. ¿donde sacaste esa tontería de que negaba que fuera una agresión? no toda agresión es "sexual assault". esa agresión que recién cometiste, bloqueándolo por una imaginación tuya, ¿acaso te parece bien llamar de violación sexual?, y por lo tanto un crímen? supongo que no. de eso se trata la discusión: de la tendencia de atribuir al término sentidos que no alcanza, que no debe alcanzar, y que tiene buenas razones para no alcanzar, puesto que hay otros términos que no tratan de confundir deferentes tipos de agresión como si fueran lo mismo. -

funny, I spent last night thinking exactly of "software #enshittification", and how different amounts of remote control over the software one uses makes one more or less vulnerable to enshittification
it seems to be the concept I was converging onto when I wrote https://www.fsfla.org/blogs/lxo/draft/blob-fallacy
I even thought "software enshittification" could be relevant at e.g. LibrePlanet next year, but now I'm thinking it is so self-evident that it will be old news by then. @fsf WDYT?
it's funny that I started out by thinking that nonfree software is already full of shit to begin with, but enshittification is like further adorning and seasoning the thing with additional fresh shit -

eu adoro a cara que as pessoas fazem quando explico que o zap não me tem, porque prefiro não meter o zuck na conversa. nem carrego tornozeleira compatível!
só não fica divertido quando preciso de algum serviço, público ou privado, e insistem que só está disponível através de canais devassos. aí começa a via crucis de registrar reclamação, escalar pra procon, pra justiça, ... muito chato. seria bacana se muito mais gente resistisse a esse atropelo. -

Alexandre Oliva (moved to @lxo@gnusocial.jp)
but the point was, AFAICT, was it "sexual assault"?
there are people who read that and seem to conclude that he's defending that action, that it should be always permitted. I don't see that, and I'm pretty sure that's not what was meant, that it's a misunderstanding out of different ways our minds work.
what I see there is primarily a stance against the expansion of a technical-turned-into-propaganda term that, by expanding, turns acts that are lesser offenses into actual crimes.
the same phenomenon can be observed in the war against so-called piracy (a purely propaganda term, very much weaponized), or tropes that go about "such horrible crimes as arson, murder, and jaywalking". it's about avoiding the manipulative effect of such language twisting.
but common responses to such language issues focus on a wider context, rather than on the focused message. it's like, if he wrote "that's not genocide!" because something doesn't fit the definition of genocide, and instead of understanding that he meant "it's actually mass murder of a different kind", they take it as meaning that he thinks that kind of "not-quite-a-genocide but still horrible act is not reproachable"
in this case, the stolen kiss clearly crossed a line, it could be part of a larger pattern of sexual harassment, but it doesn't follow that every so-called "stolen kiss" should be criminalized, many happy couples start with a consensual "stolen kiss" -

GNU distros aren't limited to GNU packages either
GNU systems IMHO also encompass software that is not GNU but that was designed to fit in, even if by replacing GNU software
