[09:47] schestowitz-TR I know where it is [09:47] schestowitz-TR I already warned myself [09:47] schestowitz-TR last year [09:47] schestowitz-TR it's kwaller hindind behind a bunch of windows [09:48] schestowitz-TR with a prompt [09:48] schestowitz-TR took me half an hour to find it [09:48] schestowitz-TR mystery solved! [09:51] Techrightssec that could well be the result of mismatched libraries (update minus reboot) [09:56] schestowitz-TR a reboot would have 'helped' in the sense it would give me another chance to see an hanging prompt [09:56] schestowitz-TR this is not a new problem [09:57] schestowitz-TR rianne had that too [09:57] schestowitz-TR it's UI kludge ● Nov 07 [10:09] *psydruid

schestowitz-TR without any of these niggles, I reckon a reboot and session/tasks restore should take 20 mins [10:44] schestowitz-TR abotu the same as end of month tasks [10:47] *starstreak has quit

07 [11:32] schestowitz-TR nhs became truly awful [11:32] schestowitz-TR just needed to escalate to a manager (not for me) [11:32] schestowitz-TR after they play "pingpong" with patient [11:32] schestowitz-TR physical, phone, "on line" (Web site, awful) [11:32] schestowitz-TR I joked that next thing they'll do it call a webchat "GP visit" [11:32] schestowitz-TR then outsource to lowpaid country [11:32] schestowitz-TR then replace with "HEY HI" [11:32] schestowitz-TR and still call it "national insurance" (HEY HI) [11:32] schestowitz-TR They already try to do workflow charts as JS and call that "service" [11:32] schestowitz-TR I remember in high school someone wrote in ML (not machine learning, the language [11:32] schestowitz-TR like SML) some program to help with classificatiopn [11:32] schestowitz-TR so this neo-liberal fantasy is like 25+ years old [11:32] schestowitz-TR like the idea of "self-serving" [11:32] schestowitz-TR and "cashless payments" universally [11:32] schestowitz-TR no comment needed, just venting a little [11:37] Techrightssec insurance != care [11:40] schestowitz-TR for a lot of people the ambition to settle and have a quiet life is disrupted by [11:40] schestowitz-TR ssoaring inflation and various other factors, inc. various changes at the health level, [11:40] schestowitz-TR inc. relatives, and then there are factors that are neither financial or health related [11:40] schestowitz-TR shhort story: life in 2020 onwards is very much difference from 1980s [11:40] schestowitz-TR not to mention what "home ownership" meant 40 years ago [11:40] schestowitz-TR I am happy and healthy, can't complain [11:40] schestowitz-TR but make observation on many around me, who are a lot less fortunate [11:40] schestowitz-TR and I don't see this turning around any time soon, the media here makes very grim predictions [11:40] schestowitz-TR which can't possible be healthy albeit maybe sobering to the populace [11:40] schestowitz-TR *possibly [11:45] Techrightssec ack [11:47] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #boycottnovell [11:49] schestowitz-TR if my laptop has a third complete system freeze in 10 days or less, I will do a proper investigation [11:49] schestowitz-TR I already moved my important files off it earlier this year [11:49] schestowitz-TR but it's a good processor and I want to keep it for several more years [11:49] schestowitz-TR the only net effect here is loss of time [11:49] schestowitz-TR the loss of "notes" was very minimal [11:49] schestowitz-TR thanks to the way file server and backups are done [11:49] schestowitz-TR I didn't back up the sites last night, did not have time [11:49] schestowitz-TR but it's on my list still [11:49] schestowitz-TR once the dust settles I'll be able to do a lot more [11:52] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #boycottnovell ● Nov 07 [12:04] schestowitz-TR breyer has just written to me [12:04] schestowitz-TR have not opened yet [12:04] schestowitz-TR reluctant to start another long article [12:04] schestowitz-TR got some more upc material as well [12:04] schestowitz-TR I will limit toi breyer for now [12:04] schestowitz-TR unless

appointment in 3-hour notice this way [12:48] schestowitz-TR so the escalation worked [12:48] schestowitz-TR posting Daily Links now [12:48] Techrightssec ack [12:48] Techrightssec excellent [12:49] schestowitz-TR you already know this: reading about FB and Twitter lately is music to my ears [12:49] schestowitz-TR and I think it vindicates me for saying it would happen "in the next 5 years [12:49] schestowitz-TR I could probably say "1 year" or "2 years" but played it safe [12:51] psydruid crises and pandemics accelerate things that would have happened anyway, but would have taken longer otherwise [12:58] Techrightssec ack [12:58] schestowitz-TR yeah, the busiuness model was not t rhere [12:58] schestowitz-TR the capital klept coming [12:58] schestowitz-TR but that river dried
