I wonder if they'll discover bulletin board systems (BBS) like we used to use before the internet was even a thing.

Seems to me there might be a proliferation of such systems appearing in Oz. I wonder if they could even "import" content from other mainstream social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube etc like FidoNet used to do with usenet postings. Now *that* would be interesting.

Hey... come to think of it, let's just revive usenet and be done with it!

There were two people in the cockpit. Possibly with different agendas.

No doubt that is (part of) what the experts were called on to answer. They just didn't want to get stuck in a remote facility until their answer was deemed "correct".

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Net::NTP qw(get_ntp_response);
use Time::HiRes qw(time);
my %response = get_ntp_response();

.
.
etc.

Using nukes (or even a large dose of conventional warfare) is beyond a point of no return. Where most other nations will refuse to deal with you. Some may, but then you end up with a division into two groups. Like the Axis and Allied powers during WWII. And we all know how that ended up.

It's not a situation one can step back from easily and return to the negotiating table.

ChatGPT is an idiot savant. It "knows" the contents of the entire web. But it can't figure out NTP?

I use a wristwatch.

Does anyone really know what time it is?
Does anyone really care?

... my peers. If I were to hang around people who use hallucinogenics all the time.

Well, I am on Slashdot, so ...

Because the Uyghurs have too much support from the various global NGOs. Nobody is going to come to the aid of robots.
