| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Yeah, CNN is saying they're going to lay off the yellow journalism and go to real news. | Jun 04 00:02 |
| DaemonFC | We'll see. | Jun 04 00:02 |

| DaemonFC | They're a branch of the Democratic Party, and stuffed with sex perverts and public masturbators. | Jun 04 00:03 |
| DaemonFC | I wouldn't call someone a pervert for masturbation. | Jun 04 00:03 |
| DaemonFC | Or having it accidentally witnessed when they thought they were in private. | Jun 04 00:03 |
| DaemonFC | The guy got stung by not using Zoom's "privacy mode" correctly. | Jun 04 00:03 |
| DaemonFC | The truth is that very nearly everyone masturbates and people still talk about it like it's something only a degenerate does. | Jun 04 00:04 |
| DaemonFC | But you know, the perverts are like Chris Cuomo and that guy that was paying women to send their underage daughters to him. They had their own mini-Epstein and it barely got coverage anywhere. | Jun 04 00:05 |
| DaemonFC | Anything sex-related tends to get false equivalence as far as scandal goes. | Jun 04 00:09 |
| DaemonFC | Which is really really weird. | Jun 04 00:09 |

| DaemonFC | " Even with a high-speed business-class internet connection, this update took almost an hour to complete. When the update finished, we opened the SoundTouch app again and it connected to the speaker without any issues. But then…another update. Yes, linking the mobile software to the speaker system initiated another hour-long update. | Jun 04 05:04 |
| DaemonFC | Finally, after two hours of waiting, we got some music streaming over Wi-Fi. It sounded great—and then the Wi-Fi disconnection problems started. We tried moving the system closer to our router, restarting our devices, uninstalling and installing the app again, restarting the SoundTouch pedestal, and even doing a factory reset. The Wi-Fi continued to randomly disconnect." | Jun 04 05:04 |

| DaemonFC | I remember my parents buying a refurbished Hoover vacuum cleaner there that was about half the price. It worked fine for many years. | Jun 04 11:31 |
| DaemonFC | So obviously they got a good deal on that. | Jun 04 11:31 |
| DaemonFC | That was back when people still took their vacuum to the repair shop if it broke down, and when the thing worked so wall that you could look at the carpet and see where you'd been already. | Jun 04 11:32 |
| DaemonFC | *well | Jun 04 11:32 |
| DaemonFC | Today you get a vacuum cleaner and it's all shitty and made in China most of the time. | Jun 04 11:32 |
| DaemonFC | If anything happens to it, you throw the whole machine in a dumpster. Mom got a $700 vacuum that broke down and then threw it out a year later when it broke down. | Jun 04 11:33 |
| DaemonFC | I asked her if she spent $700 on the vacuum why she didn't take it to the vacuum repair shop and she said "The guy wanted $100 to look at it and tell me what was wrong, and that was before he fixed it and it's not a car! The guy I go to church with said the $50 vacuum I replaced it with could break down and go in the trash every year and I still wouldn't be out $700 for the vacuum!". | Jun 04 11:35 |
| DaemonFC | I said, "The $100 is usually a diagnostic fee and sometimes you get it back if you have them repair it. They just don't want you wasting their time if you're not going to get it repaired there. It may have only been a broken belt, which is like $10.". | Jun 04 11:35 |
| DaemonFC | Oh, $700 vacuum in the trash without even looking at it. | Jun 04 11:36 |
| DaemonFC | Now she can't afford to just pick up and move out on this bastard of a landlord she has. | Jun 04 11:36 |
| DaemonFC | Typical boomer. "Oh this guy wants to be paid for his work. I'll just chuck it and spend more money on another one that'll break down!". | Jun 04 11:39 |

| DaemonFC | That woman she worked with gave her 2012 Chevy Malibu as a trade-in for $2,000 on the suspicion there might be something wrong with the transmission, without even getting a quote for the work, or a diagnostic. | Jun 04 11:41 |
| DaemonFC | She spent $12,000 on a 2011 Ford Mustang from the same shop, which told her it needed a "timing chain" that they put in, and the engine blew up on her on the way home. | Jun 04 11:42 |
| DaemonFC | Now she has no car at all and a $12,000 Mustang that needs a $5,000 used engine. | Jun 04 11:42 |

| DaemonFC | They were never associated with HP. | Jun 04 11:55 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Yeah, I buy stuff from "Amazon Warehouse Deals" sometimes. | Jun 04 12:12 |
| DaemonFC | So the box that a box fan came in got damaged. | Jun 04 12:12 |
| DaemonFC | As long as the fan works, why wouldn't I want to pay 15% less for the fan? | Jun 04 12:12 |

| DaemonFC | Claims to scrub CO2 out of the air. | Jun 04 12:14 |
| DaemonFC | LOL | Jun 04 12:14 |
| DaemonFC | Unless you're an astronaut, not having a CO2 scrubber is rarely an issue. | Jun 04 12:14 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Mom asked me what I use in the livingroom. I told her "a fan with a furnace filter strapped to it and sealed in with tape". | Jun 04 12:16 |
| DaemonFC | She goes, "And that works?". I said, "Well, it's not quite HEPA, but it doesn't cost much. It's literally a $20 box fan and a $10 filter you have to change a few times a year.". | Jun 04 12:16 |
| DaemonFC | Just get the cheapest box fan that moves air around because even on the low setting, this thing can maintain the air quality of a room. You're not buying it to move a shitload of air and keep you comfortable so it doesn't have to be a performance model fan. It just has to move plenty of air through the filter. | Jun 04 12:17 |
| DaemonFC | With no air purifier in my living room I can see dirt floating around in the air. It's so bad it looks like glitter if I turn on my phone camera and make a video. | Jun 04 12:18 |
| DaemonFC | But the fan+furnace filter gets rid of all of that. | Jun 04 12:18 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR said fans don't work. They work, until they don't. | Jun 04 12:19 |
| DaemonFC | Obviously the hotter it gets, the less they work to keep you cool, until there's no point running it and you need to turn on the air conditioning. | Jun 04 12:20 |
| DaemonFC | But if it's just mildly to moderately uncomfortable, getting some air on you can relieve that. | Jun 04 12:20 |
| DaemonFC | Do they save you money? Well, where I live, there's about 40 days out of the Summer where air conditioning is not really necessary, but you do want some air on you. If you have no fan and turn the air conditioner on, it'll add $2-3 per day, so if you used the fan instead, it will pay for itself in 10 days, and then you'd still have the fan next year. | Jun 04 12:22 |
| DaemonFC | Fans can also help the air conditioner cool you down better, so you don't have to turn it down as much to achieve the same cooling effect. | Jun 04 12:23 |
| DaemonFC | The US Department of Energy has some interesting guidance on the air conditioner. | Jun 04 12:23 |
| DaemonFC | They suggest keeping it at 78 while you're awake and 82 at night. | Jun 04 12:23 |
| DaemonFC | I don't know about anyone else, but if it's 82 in my bedroom I can't sleep and I'm going to be madder than hell. | Jun 04 12:23 |
| DaemonFC | They also recommended a smart thermostat. The electric company pays you to buy a Nest. | Jun 04 12:24 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, ^ | Jun 04 12:24 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | sorry, hang opn.. | Jun 04 12:24 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I'm GIMPing something | Jun 04 12:24 |
| DaemonFC | I laughed pretty hard at that. I know when I'll be gone all day and can flip the air conditioner off. | Jun 04 12:25 |
| DaemonFC | It doesn't need to have a connection to my phone for that. It has an OFF switch. | Jun 04 12:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it's BS | Jun 04 12:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | all those spying devices | Jun 04 12:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | they use up power | Jun 04 12:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | so you pay more | Jun 04 12:25 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | "oh really? I didn't need this shitty gadget to tell me my PC is on" | Jun 04 12:26 |

| DaemonFC | Maybe. | Jun 04 12:27 |
| DaemonFC | The Party would feel better about someone that can do two back to back terms. | Jun 04 12:27 |
| DaemonFC | Vice Presidents don't have a good track record of being elected after the president's term is done. | Jun 04 12:28 |
| DaemonFC | Sometimes it happens with coattails, like George H.W Bush. | Jun 04 12:28 |
| DaemonFC | Sometimes the president dies in office and the VP goes on to win a full term. | Jun 04 12:29 |
| DaemonFC | But trying to get elected after just being the VP for 8 years is not easy. | Jun 04 12:29 |

| DaemonFC | I did not see that. I was just commenting that elections don't always go the obvious way. | Jun 04 12:43 |
| DaemonFC | I still think Trump would lose if he came back. | Jun 04 12:43 |
| DaemonFC | Most people don't like Biden, but they like Trump less. | Jun 04 12:43 |
| DaemonFC | If they're still talking about gun control and abortion on election day, and the economy is bad, they're going to lose a lot of seats in Congress. | Jun 04 12:48 |
| DaemonFC | But most presidents lose a lot of seats in Congress, but then the voters are satisfied that they can't really do much anymore and give the president whose policies they just repudiated another term. | Jun 04 12:48 |
| DaemonFC | So I think Biden will hang in there, but I also think we're looking at the biggest Republican majority in Congress since Gingrich's strategy against Bill Clinton in 1994 and 1996. | Jun 04 12:49 |
| DaemonFC | The same thing basically happened to Bush, Obama, and Trump. | Jun 04 12:49 |
| DaemonFC | So it's not like it's unique. | Jun 04 12:49 |

| DaemonFC | They conduct rigged polling to try to claim the Democrats can hang in there somehow. | Jun 04 12:51 |
| DaemonFC | Most Americans are not terribly fond of abortion or gun control, but they keep rigging the polls to make it sound like people back the Democrats, and most people do not. | Jun 04 12:51 |

| SomeH4x0r | hi | Jun 04 16:13 |
| psydroid2 | so it's different from the way it is in Polish? | Jun 04 16:14 |
| SomeH4x0r | I don't know Polish | Jun 04 16:14 |
| psydroid2 | mówię trochę po ukraińsku | Jun 04 16:14 |
| psydroid2 | maybe that's where my confusion lies | Jun 04 16:15 |
| psydroid2 | I do, as I lived there for a year and a bit | Jun 04 16:15 |
| XRevan86 | psydroid2: I don't know why Polish is like that, Ukrainian has an affinity for a palatalised "s" (and "ts"). | Jun 04 16:15 |
| psydroid2 | XRevan86, I am happy to be made aware of it, because I've been doing it wrong all along | Jun 04 16:16 |
| matey | Потом доказывай, что ты не верблюд | Jun 04 16:17 |
| XRevan86 | ^ a phrase I wish to know the English version of | Jun 04 16:19 |
| matey | "prove the obvious" | Jun 04 16:19 |
| matey | i mean, theres no idiom for it that i know of | Jun 04 16:19 |
| matey | its not a "saying" in english afaik | Jun 04 16:19 |
| matey | /me thinks | Jun 04 16:19 |
| XRevan86 | matey: That's not really what that's about. | Jun 04 16:19 |
| matey | explain it to me then | Jun 04 16:20 |
| XRevan86 | It's more about proving something unsubstantiated as false. | Jun 04 16:20 |
| matey | oh | Jun 04 16:20 |
| matey | i mean "you cant prove a negative" | Jun 04 16:20 |
| matey | and then theres "unfalsifiable" as a single word | Jun 04 16:21 |
| matey | which is probably closer in meaning | Jun 04 16:21 |
| matey | but id be surprised if you werent familiar with these already | Jun 04 16:22 |
| XRevan86 | I am, it's close but not it. | Jun 04 16:22 |
| XRevan86 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_jokes | Jun 04 16:25 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Russian jokes - Wikipedia | Jun 04 16:25 | |
| XRevan86 | > The Hare runs like crazy through a forest and meets the Wolf. The Wolf asks: "What's the matter? Why such haste?" / "The camels there are caught and shod!" The Wolf says: "But you're not a camel!" / "Hey, after you are caught and shod, just you try to prove to them that you are not a camel!" | Jun 04 16:25 |
| XRevan86 | > This joke is a suggested to be an origin of the popular Russian saying "try to prove you are not a camel" in the sense "try to prove something to someone who doesn't want to listen", used in relation to violations of the presumption of innocence by Russian law enforcement agencies, or when someone has to fight the bureaucracy to get official papers proving that one has lost a leg or is even alive. | Jun 04 16:25 |
| matey | yeah i was going to say | Jun 04 16:25 |
| matey | there are idioms in english for people who just wont ever listen, no matter what you say | Jun 04 16:25 |
| matey | but they come from a different angle, focusing on the person who wont listen, rather than the impossibility of explaining | Jun 04 16:26 |
| matey | or maybe | Jun 04 16:26 |
| matey | having to explain until youre "blue in the mouth" | Jun 04 16:26 |
| matey | the most famous english example of this of course being the dead parrot sketch from monty python | Jun 04 16:27 |
| matey | john cleese goes into a pet shop to complain that the parrot he just purchased there "not alf an hour ago" was stone dead | Jun 04 16:27 |
| matey | and that the only reason it had stayed on its perch in the first place is it had been nailed there | Jun 04 16:27 |
| matey | so the owner of the shop proceeds to argue with him and explain that "ees just resting!" | Jun 04 16:28 |

| matey | "Marx assumed that the starting point of a movement in the direction of socialism would be a high level of living standards. | Jun 04 17:54 |
| matey | Only by completely satisfying all the material aspirations of men and women will it be possible to arrive at a level where such aspirations cease to dominate people’s lives and thoughts, preparing the way for a qualitatively superior level of human civilisation."-- ted grant | Jun 04 17:55 |
| matey | for all the bullshit so-called "socialists" out there making a lot out of (nothing) piddling reforms | Jun 04 17:55 |
| matey | including new labour | Jun 04 17:56 |
| matey | socialism implies progress that the masses can see | Jun 04 17:56 |
| matey | if the masses cant see progress, its probably not socialism | Jun 04 17:56 |
| matey | but theres plenty of the fake, bullshit variety | Jun 04 17:56 |
| matey | the stuff political careers are made of | Jun 04 17:57 |
| matey | careerists are hardly better than plunderers and embezzlers | Jun 04 17:57 |
| matey | theyre liars and frauds | Jun 04 17:57 |
| matey | similarly, lieplanet has nothing to offer freedom except less return, less freedom, more marketing and more censorship | Jun 04 17:57 |
| matey | fraud, fraud, bullshit, fraud | Jun 04 17:57 |
| matey | when its the real thing, its obvious | Jun 04 17:58 |
| matey | maybe some people dont understand it, but those that do understand dont have to guess | Jun 04 17:58 |
| matey | because it isnt fucking complicated | Jun 04 17:58 |
| matey | only the bullshit is complicated | Jun 04 17:58 |
| matey | of course im talking about results. methods are complicated. results (real ones) are plain to see | Jun 04 17:58 |
| matey | careerists make results complicated, because theyre justifying bullshit with more bullshit | Jun 04 17:59 |
| matey | all theyre doing is holding people back | Jun 04 17:59 |
| matey | covering up for the problems | Jun 04 17:59 |
| matey | maybe they say there are problems, then they cover up for the causes of those problems | Jun 04 18:00 |
| matey | and finally say "oh, its not so bad" | Jun 04 18:00 |
| matey | as if people are too stupid to know if things are bad | Jun 04 18:00 |
| matey | of course if you control communication, then you can make it look like most people agree with bullshit | Jun 04 18:00 |
| matey | then people feel a little more helpless to state the fucking obvious | Jun 04 18:00 |
| matey | not that such has happened to lieplanet, the fsf, or the founder of the movement | Jun 04 18:01 |
| matey | oh wait | Jun 04 18:01 |
| matey | yes it has | Jun 04 18:01 |
| matey | there are absolutely people who are never happy no matter what you do | Jun 04 18:02 |
| matey | but when more and more people are silenced by the notion that you cant make everyone happy | Jun 04 18:02 |
| matey | then youre in major bullshit territory | Jun 04 18:02 |
| matey | even people who are wrong about the causes, the culprits, etc | Jun 04 18:03 |
| matey | know that something at least, is wrong | Jun 04 18:03 |
| matey | you cant rid them of that notion, it has to go somewhere | Jun 04 18:03 |
| matey | they know (for a fact) that something is wrong | Jun 04 18:03 |
| matey | if you prove (with bullshit) that it isnt x, y, z when it is actually x, y, z | Jun 04 18:04 |
| matey | they will assume it has to be p. d. q instead | Jun 04 18:04 |
| matey | because they know its something at least | Jun 04 18:04 |
| matey | that much theyre right about | Jun 04 18:04 |
| matey | if you hide the culprits well enough, people will make them up | Jun 04 18:04 |
| matey | but theyre not making up the overall problem, theyre simply determined to find the fault somewhere | Jun 04 18:05 |
| matey | the better you hide the real problems, the more people will come up with other problems (even imaginary ones) | Jun 04 18:05 |
| matey | the suspicion of millions of people will flow somewhere | Jun 04 18:05 |
| matey | even if it flows to nonsense | Jun 04 18:06 |
| matey | fix the real problems and people will make up fewer ridiculous ones | Jun 04 18:06 |
| matey | human imagination will not cease to exist, but the abuse of that imagination will naturally go back to reasonable levels (mostly) | Jun 04 18:06 |
| matey | at least relativelty speaking | Jun 04 18:06 |
| matey | just for one example, if debian didnt suck, pocock probably wouldnt be a name we know now | Jun 04 18:07 |
| matey | i was actually thinking of the pandemic and the nuttier responses to that, but pocock works as an example too | Jun 04 18:08 |
| matey | the more real problems get brushed under the rug, the harder people will try to imagine whats under there | Jun 04 18:08 |

| matey | they took their fucking time | Jun 04 19:01 |
| matey | and did it right | Jun 04 19:02 |
| matey | but if theyd been making space rockets for the masses, nothing would make it into orbit but the factory itself | Jun 04 19:02 |
| matey | because production must increase! | Jun 04 19:02 |
| matey | its a lot like the meat industry in the states | Jun 04 19:03 |
| matey | a lot of bad shit happens when you lean too hard on that lever | Jun 04 19:03 |
| matey | if the workers have a say, its a lot safer | Jun 04 19:03 |
| matey | production may go down, quality at least has the chance to increase | Jun 04 19:04 |
| matey | democracy is more efficient than bureaucracy because the people who know whats going on are closer to the decision making process | Jun 04 19:05 |
| matey | bureaucrats make terrible guesses on their best day, with data that is less useful, and it increases corruption too | Jun 04 19:05 |

| matey | why not | Jun 04 19:10 |
| matey | "However, undoubtedly, the general level of quality lagged far behind Western standards. Colour television sets had to be taken back for repairs on average twice in their first year of use. They also had a tendency to explode. Shoes were, for some reason, of a particularly poor quality, and so on." | Jun 04 19:12 |
| matey | "They also had a tendency to explode." | Jun 04 19:13 |
| matey | molotov television | Jun 04 19:13 |
| matey | "the television will be revolutionised" | Jun 04 19:14 |

| matey | "leonid, whats wrong?" | Jun 04 19:14 |
| matey | "my shoe went off" | Jun 04 19:14 |
| matey | "the other one?" | Jun 04 19:15 |
| matey | of course if the workers could say anything, this would probably get fixed | Jun 04 19:16 |
| matey | too bad they all had to sign a code of conduct | Jun 04 19:16 |
| matey | the shoes and televisions were shit, but at least they didnt have any offensive names | Jun 04 19:17 |

| DaemonFC | Like Depp suing Heard in Virginia, despite Heard never having lived or even been there. | Jun 04 21:21 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, I advised mom on shopping for jurisdiction during her last divorce. | Jun 04 21:21 |
| DaemonFC | It made things less of a disaster. | Jun 04 21:21 |
| DaemonFC | The judge in her county is a real asshole and knows her ex husband. | Jun 04 21:21 |
| DaemonFC | It's doubtful he would recuse himself. | Jun 04 21:21 |
| techrights-news | "I’ve talked to Richard Stallman about this numerous times as he calls for a beefed up IRS. I’ve told him they need to modernize their systems to catch red flags on tax returns (they still use software written in COBOL during the Kennedy Administration), and they need to start prioritizing these rich assholes who consider gaming the system par for the course" https://baronhk.wordpress.com/2022/06/04/welfare-queen/ | Jun 04 21:22 |
| DaemonFC | So I told her go up to Whitley County and slap him with divorce papers from that court. They asked her why she was doing that and she cited conflict of interest involving the judge and her husband. | Jun 04 21:22 |
| DaemonFC | During the trial, the judge up in Whitley sided with mom over Dave more often than not. | Jun 04 21:22 |
| DaemonFC | So it seems to me that the judge saw what was going on. | Jun 04 21:23 |
| DaemonFC | Dave tried to lie to the court and I told mom how to untangle the lies and prove he was lying. | Jun 04 21:23 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | seems she hhad a tough life | Jun 04 21:23 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and still has | Jun 04 21:23 |
| DaemonFC | It got the judge really mad at Dave. | Jun 04 21:23 |
| DaemonFC | <schestowitz_TR2> and still has | Jun 04 21:23 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah, she's gone from men beating her up to some asshole who lives in a gated community in Florida jacking up her rent because he wanted to buy a bigger house and make her pay for it. | Jun 04 21:24 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | jackass | Jun 04 21:24 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I could say **f | Jun 04 21:24 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but that would trigged mr social justUS | Jun 04 21:24 |
| DaemonFC | He even flaunted it to her while they were on the phone. | Jun 04 21:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | yeah, I need more money.. | Jun 04 21:25 |
| DaemonFC | That he sold the place in Florida (which was on a private island iirc). | Jun 04 21:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | ..coz need bigger home | Jun 04 21:25 |
| DaemonFC | Then he made a profit off it and "bought a place twice as big". | Jun 04 21:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | not because he faces forclosure | Jun 04 21:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | he wants an upgrade... udirin g pandemic | Jun 04 21:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | *during | Jun 04 21:25 |
| DaemonFC | Oh, he was the one that went there to hide from the pandemic and he had a maskless dinner party with 6 other rich people. | Jun 04 21:26 |
| DaemonFC | One of them had it, and everyone at the party got COVID, including him. | Jun 04 21:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | good | Jun 04 21:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | hope it left him scarred a bit | Jun 04 21:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | took a few years off his life | Jun 04 21:26 |
| DaemonFC | Nothing has so far. | Jun 04 21:26 |
| DaemonFC | Guy has HIV and cancer. | Jun 04 21:27 |
| DaemonFC | And you would never know it. | Jun 04 21:27 |
| DaemonFC | He looks as healthy as any other guy his age. | Jun 04 21:27 |
| DaemonFC | He's been dealing with the cancer going into remission and coming back off and on, and it isn't in remission now. | Jun 04 21:28 |

| DaemonFC | So in addition to buying a bigger house in the middle of all of this and flaunting how rich he is, nothing kills him because he's so rich (off of other people) that he can just add more pills and chemo and laser beams for whatever it is. | Jun 04 21:28 |
| DaemonFC | And if his medical bills cost $10 million that year, who cares? | Jun 04 21:29 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | all this sound bar BS | Jun 04 21:40 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | unbelievablke | Jun 04 21:40 |
| DaemonFC | I tried it with MP3 for kicks and it was horrendous. | Jun 04 21:41 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | they figured out how to bilk people for x10 more money than they should spend | Jun 04 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | Eh, as a refurb, I didn't pay an exorbitant amount of money. | Jun 04 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | I almost always go refurb on expensive appliances. | Jun 04 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | That way you get good stuff and don't pay tons and tons of money. Usually no more than half of what a brand new one retails for. | Jun 04 21:42 |
| DaemonFC | You should be seeing a discount of at least 30-50% on refurbs, and I've never had a problem with one. | Jun 04 21:42 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, The obvious codec for Bluetooth at that time should have been Musepack. | Jun 04 21:45 |

| DaemonFC | It expands on MPEG Layer II but adds psychoacoustic model tuning, clear voice detection, M/S stereo encoding, VBR is mandatory, etc. | Jun 04 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | It's pretty much what MP3 should have been and wasn't, and it's open source. | Jun 04 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | I think it's better than Vorbis, not as good as Opus. | Jun 04 21:47 |
| DaemonFC | Fedora never supported it properly. | Jun 04 21:47 |

| DaemonFC | They paid him to work on Vorbis, which was basically wasted effort. | Jun 04 21:48 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | not really | Jun 04 21:48 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I still use it | Jun 04 21:48 |
| DaemonFC | Not only is Vorbis deprecated, but instead of quality tuning for stereo mode, which stopped in 2004 upstream, they did this crazy surround sound bullshit. | Jun 04 21:48 |
| DaemonFC | In stereo mode, Xiph LibVorbis hasn't changed much since 2004. | Jun 04 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | There was still "gold in them there hills" as far as what was possible in encoder tunings. | Jun 04 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | But "monty" repeatedly refused to look into it, or even accept patches that achieved that. | Jun 04 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | AoTuv isn't so much worse than Opus. It's comparable in quality to Apple AAC. | Jun 04 21:50 |
| DaemonFC | I have a rough "transparency" estimate for each codec. They claim that Opus is about 40% more efficient than LAME MP3, but LAME hasn't changed much since those comparisons were made and Opus has. | Jun 04 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | Read the change log between 1.1 and 1.3 and you see that. | Jun 04 21:52 |

| DaemonFC | Most of the tuning has been with bit allocation. Which is the majority of what went into AoTuv. | Jun 04 21:57 |
| DaemonFC | Except that AoTuv doesn't behave as the documentation suggests it will and Opus is still more like an average bitrate. | Jun 04 21:58 |
| DaemonFC | AoTuv doesn't really care if the average bitrate goes up significantly past where it should be. | Jun 04 21:58 |
| DaemonFC | But LAME behaves that way too at the higher settings. | Jun 04 21:58 |
| DaemonFC | Worse, in fact. Because of the scalefactor band 21 problem. | Jun 04 21:59 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Dropping floor0 from the Vorbis specification and decoder would de-bloat it a bit. Anything encoded with 1.0-rc2 would still work. It was retained due to compatibility with encoders that were never guaranteed to be compatible with the final specification anyway. | Jun 04 22:00 |
| techrights-news | Netflix and Spotify won't survive the coming decade | Jun 04 22:01 |
| DaemonFC | I don't like the approach to telling people what they do with beta software may not be supported and then crapping up the final product to retain support later anyway. | Jun 04 22:01 |
| DaemonFC | Compatibility should only be a guarantee with something marked as a frozen specification. | Jun 04 22:01 |

| DaemonFC | Getting sound to the speaker is a "problem" that was solved in the 1960s. | Jun 04 22:25 |
| DaemonFC | Everything they did since then only made it worse. | Jun 04 22:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | exactly! | Jun 04 22:26 |
| DaemonFC | Worse or impossible. | Jun 04 22:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | remember the big, thick headphone jacks? | Jun 04 22:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and the adapters for these? | Jun 04 22:26 |
| DaemonFC | Yes, the 5/8ths I believe. | Jun 04 22:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | afaik, some headphones still come with them | Jun 04 22:26 |
| DaemonFC | I have an adapter for my headphones. | Jun 04 22:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | the adapter | Jun 04 22:26 |
| DaemonFC | It turns the 1/8th into a 5/8ths. | Jun 04 22:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it's like sd and microsd | Jun 04 22:27 |
| DaemonFC | Yes, there's nothing wrong with the 1/8" (3.5 mm). | Jun 04 22:27 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | the bigger ones might be more robust | Jun 04 22:27 |
| DaemonFC | Sounds terrific. | Jun 04 22:27 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but I did not test | Jun 04 22:27 |
| DaemonFC | EM shielding a cable is cheap and easy. | Jun 04 22:27 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | you can get high fiudelity ones | Jun 04 22:27 |
| DaemonFC | You can do it with tinfoil and then cover that with the sheath. | Jun 04 22:27 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I think I still have one | Jun 04 22:27 |
| DaemonFC | The cable costs $9 for a 20 footer. | Jun 04 22:27 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | hmm... I wonder where my cable is.. | Jun 04 22:28 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Someone I knew was complaining about static and needing a new cable. | Jun 04 22:28 |
| DaemonFC | I said "No you don't.". | Jun 04 22:28 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | right now I use 15-pound headphones | Jun 04 22:28 |
| DaemonFC | Took a foil chewing gum wrapper, moved it around until no more static. Said, "You kinked the EM shield." and taped the foil in place. | Jun 04 22:28 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | with hdmi and all the modern stuff it would not work | Jun 04 22:28 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | the scrambled signals | Jun 04 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | HDMI is huge and there are several incompatible versions. | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | even vga gives you comparablke quality | Jun 04 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | It's a fucking joke. | Jun 04 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | You break the cable and it doesn't work at all. Doesn't take much. | Jun 04 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | The ports are easy to break too. | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | yeah | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | my experience also | Jun 04 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | Mostly for DRM. | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | we bought many cables like these | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | some barely last months | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | if you jerk them a lot | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | like on a movin g laptop | Jun 04 22:29 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | yes, it's a DRM carrier | Jun 04 22:30 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | same with all that stuff that replaces headphone jacks | Jun 04 22:30 |
| DaemonFC | I strongly prefered DVI-D and a 3.5 mm cable. | Jun 04 22:30 |
| DaemonFC | I have no use for DRM and don't use it. | Jun 04 22:30 |
| DaemonFC | There was also a standard for analog audio over a DVI-D cable. | Jun 04 22:30 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | many monitors support neither dvi or vga | Jun 04 22:30 |
| MinceR | DRM (HDCP) is possible on DVI-D, sadly | Jun 04 22:30 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | some support all 3 types | Jun 04 22:31 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but can be expensive | Jun 04 22:31 |
| DaemonFC | So it's not even like you needed HDMI for a unified cable. | Jun 04 22:31 |
| MinceR | my first LCD monitor proudly advertised that it supports HDCP :( | Jun 04 22:31 |
| MinceR | (and it had only VGA and DVI-D inputs, iirc) | Jun 04 22:31 |
| DaemonFC | Oh, then you have to worry about if it's HDMI 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.0, 2.2, etc. | Jun 04 22:31 |
| DaemonFC | And if it's not DRM'd enough, your shit won't work because Hollywood. | Jun 04 22:32 |
| DaemonFC | Fuck them | Jun 04 22:32 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | the cables can be very sensitive and get 'confused' | Jun 04 22:32 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I still get trouble with these | Jun 04 22:32 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | like after booting it would not "pick up" | Jun 04 22:32 |
| MinceR | DVI-D cables probably have the same issues regarding bandwidth and versions | Jun 04 22:32 |
| DaemonFC | Oh yes, that reminds me. When I connected my Windows 8.1 over Nvidia's HDCP compliant port to my HDCP compliant TV, Amazon told me I needed to ditch Firefox and come back in Internet Explorer. | Jun 04 22:33 |
| MinceR | and DP cables are a pain to work with because of the little hooks | Jun 04 22:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | maybe activelow left because irc was too much drm for him | Jun 04 22:33 |
| DaemonFC | So I laughed and did, then it said that the HDCP versions mismatched and it wouldn't play in HD. | Jun 04 22:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and it rendered fonts | Jun 04 22:33 |
| DaemonFC | Great stuff. | Jun 04 22:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | DRM is a mess for many reasons | Jun 04 22:33 |
| DaemonFC | Just buy new TVs and video cards and cables all the time because money is available and takes no work to get, right? | Jun 04 22:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it's not fault-tolerant | Jun 04 22:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and not designed to be | Jun 04 22:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | DaemonFC: maybe 20 years ago | Jun 04 22:34 |
| DaemonFC | I already had to chuck a Blu Ray player that worked when I started coming up on newer discs that took 4 minutes to load. | Jun 04 22:34 |
| DaemonFC | Then ones that didn't work at all. | Jun 04 22:34 |
| DaemonFC | Then I eventually gave up on "owning" Blu Rays and used the player to borrow them from the library so at least I wasn't out more money later. | Jun 04 22:35 |
| MinceR | https://pleated-jeans.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/funny-pictures-5-30-22-3.jpg | Jun 04 22:36 |
| DaemonFC | I'm playing Elton John's "Diamonds" compilation (3 CDs) on the Bose right now. | Jun 04 22:36 |
| DaemonFC | I converted them all to 128k Opus and put them on the SD card plugged into my laptop. | Jun 04 22:36 |
| DaemonFC | I'm not even using the entire SD card and I have a lot of music on it. | Jun 04 22:37 |

| DaemonFC | I don't know why people are buying vinyl again. | Jun 04 22:37 |
| DaemonFC | Even a well constructed compact cassette tape sounds better than vinyl. | Jun 04 22:37 |
| DaemonFC | There's no constant irritating popping and hissing. | Jun 04 22:37 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | DaemonFC: they sold a playyer of it today | Jun 04 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | that I saw | Jun 04 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | maybe 2 types | Jun 04 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but no decent speakers | Jun 04 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | only premium garbage | Jun 04 22:38 |
| DaemonFC | I've always used CDs more as source material for something else. | Jun 04 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | with one piece or at most 3 | Jun 04 22:38 |
| DaemonFC | I used to buy premium compact cassettes to get good transfers from CDs I borrowed from my aunt and friends at school. | Jun 04 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | a lot can go wrong with cassette tape | Jun 04 22:38 |
| DaemonFC | I used the cassettes, not CDs. | Jun 04 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and with CD also | Jun 04 22:39 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | the vinyl is KISS | Jun 04 22:39 |
| MinceR | DaemonFC: they love the popping and hissing | Jun 04 22:39 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | go up and down | Jun 04 22:39 |
| DaemonFC | The vinyl sounds okay at first. | Jun 04 22:39 |
| MinceR | generally, humans seem to love crap | Jun 04 22:39 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | damage means just a little jitter or sound distortion | Jun 04 22:39 |
| DaemonFC | Then it gets worse. | Jun 04 22:39 |
| MinceR | they make up bullshit terms for it too, like "warm" | Jun 04 22:39 |
| DaemonFC | The needle grinds them down the more you play it, and eventually grinds in dirt and crap so you can't get it out. | Jun 04 22:39 |
| DaemonFC | And then you have less and less accurate playback every time you use it no matter how careful you are. They're dust magnets, which only makes the problem worse. | Jun 04 22:40 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | so the quality degrades | Jun 04 22:40 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but it still plays | Jun 04 22:40 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | even 50 years later | Jun 04 22:40 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | tapes you might need to literally tape | Jun 04 22:40 |
| DaemonFC | Opus files don't degrade. | Jun 04 22:40 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | when they rip apart, fold... | Jun 04 22:40 |
| DaemonFC | They're easy to back up because they're small. | Jun 04 22:40 |
| MinceR | FLAC files don't degrade and don't have to be pre-degraded, even :> | Jun 04 22:40 |
| DaemonFC | You'll know if it's corrupt and needs restored from backup because of CRC. | Jun 04 22:41 |
| DaemonFC | Compact Cassettes don't get "eaten" by the player much unless you let the head get really dirty. | Jun 04 22:42 |
| DaemonFC | About every 100-150 plays you run a special tape with a cleaner solvent through it. Just a drop of cleaner on the sponge and then play the tape until it says to stop and eject it. | Jun 04 22:42 |
| DaemonFC | You're good to go again. | Jun 04 22:42 |
| DaemonFC | VCRs are the same really. | Jun 04 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | Those had cleaner tapes too. | Jun 04 22:43 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | some people digitised themw | Jun 04 22:43 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | with divx | Jun 04 22:43 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and other formats that will grow obsolete | Jun 04 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | *cringe* | Jun 04 22:43 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | or have checksum errors | Jun 04 22:43 |
| MinceR | lol | Jun 04 22:43 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and won't be possible to format-shift at all | Jun 04 22:43 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | due to compression | Jun 04 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | Even Microsoft was right abotu MPEG-4 ASP (divx). | Jun 04 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | It was a disappointment that didn't turn out to be much better than MPEG-2. | Jun 04 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | Stuffed full of more patents. No quality improvement. | Jun 04 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | "Oh this is terrific!" | Jun 04 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | h264 is generally "good enough". | Jun 04 22:46 |

| XRevan86 | tl;dr: the Ukrainian army burnt the church when retreating, and the Russian army is not conducting any military operations in the region. | Jun 04 23:28 |
| XRevan86 | Solid logic, I like it. | Jun 04 23:28 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | to prevent the russian troops from seeing jesus | Jun 04 23:29 |
| XRevan86 | I am curious what the Ukrainian troops were retreating from per the Russian Ministry's chronology. | Jun 04 23:30 |
| XRevan86 | schestowitz: Or maybe they were retreating away from Jesus. | Jun 04 23:33 |

| DaemonFC | There we go. I got my 3.5 mm jack splitter. | Jun 04 23:35 |
| DaemonFC | $3. | Jun 04 23:35 |
| DaemonFC | Now I have my TV and my computer plugged into the same port. | Jun 04 23:35 |
| XRevan86 | DaemonFC: Just for outputs? | Jun 04 23:35 |
| XRevan86 | DaemonFC: I got 50 of them for $3 a while ago. | Jun 04 23:35 |
| XRevan86 | Don't know what to do with them. | Jun 04 23:35 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | DaemonFC: you can get one for under a pound | Jun 04 23:35 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | maybe you paid for home dlivery | Jun 04 23:36 |
| DaemonFC | It was a Belkin. Got it on Amazon. | Jun 04 23:36 |
| XRevan86 | I actually wanted an in/out splitter, which I later purchased for a bigger price, and a single piece. | Jun 04 23:36 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I have a splitter on now | Jun 04 23:36 |
| DaemonFC | I replaced the Vizio soundbar with the Bose to save space and get better sound from the TV. | Jun 04 23:36 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | lbut it's only connected to the headset | Jun 04 23:36 |
| XRevan86 | Which I also no longer use because later I got myself a digital microphone. | Jun 04 23:37 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I had one 21 years ago when I wanred to hook up the computer to two amplification systems at once | Jun 04 23:37 |
| DaemonFC | They advertise it as a headphone splitter, but you can reverse it as well and turn one Aux In port into two. | Jun 04 23:37 |
| XRevan86 | DaemonFC: There are combined jacks. | Jun 04 23:37 |
| XRevan86 | Sure, that can work as both an in/in splitter and an out/out splitter. | Jun 04 23:37 |
| DaemonFC | This is the most versatile and compatible port for audio and all the electronics companies are getting rid of it. | Jun 04 23:38 |
| DaemonFC | Making you buy USB-C dongles to keep using it. | Jun 04 23:38 |
| DaemonFC | This is absolutely stupid. | Jun 04 23:38 |
| XRevan86 | DaemonFC: They're actually pushing for Bluetooth, not USB Type-C. | Jun 04 23:39 |
| XRevan86 | Apple's dream is a completely portless device. | Jun 04 23:39 |

| XRevan86 | MinceR: Ye realised your mistake just in time. | Jun 04 23:46 |
| DaemonFC | Cables have better audio than Bluetooth, unless you're using a Sony receiver that's been made recently, and the transmitter supports LDAC as well. | Jun 04 23:48 |
| DaemonFC | LDAC scales. Under decent connections, you'll have pretty good audio quality out of it. | Jun 04 23:48 |
| DaemonFC | SBC @ 384k is like, oh, MP3 @ 128k. It's not a good way to stream, especially since what you're streaming is probably already lossy encoded anyway. | Jun 04 23:49 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, I likened using SBC and Bluetooth to converting a WMA file to MP3 because Microsoft had another music store fail and it was the only way to keep your music (with the intermediate step being burn a CD you don't even want and kill the planet). | Jun 04 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | But it's generational loss. | Jun 04 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | It's like encoding a JPEG to a really low quality second JPEG. | Jun 04 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | You can do it. It won't look good. | Jun 04 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | No encoder is really designed with the assumption that it's already working with at least 1 generation of loss. | Jun 04 23:51 |
| XRevan86 | DaemonFC: SBC-XQ exists though. | Jun 04 23:51 |
| XRevan86 | So it's not a codec problem, it's just capped by manufacturers for complicated reasons. | Jun 04 23:51 |
| XRevan86 | My Bluetooth headset can do AAC, and the latency is not too bad (like half a second), so good enough. | Jun 04 23:52 |
| XRevan86 | Unfortunately it falls apart at SBC-XQ and standard low-bitpool SBC is noticeably worse than AAC. | Jun 04 23:58 |
| XRevan86 | But it's all on the per-device basis. | Jun 04 23:59 |
