DaemonFC | Yes, but to get the latency down there's a lot of features of AAC that get turned off. | Jun 05 00:03 |
DaemonFC | Like the bit reservoir. | Jun 05 00:03 |
DaemonFC | At least iirc. | Jun 05 00:03 |
*XRevan86 doesn't know. | Jun 05 00:04 | |
DaemonFC | The bit reservoir requires looking into other frames to complete the data that goes over the part of the frame you're using. | Jun 05 00:04 |
DaemonFC | Opus doesn't really need to do this because the bitrate is arbitrary. | Jun 05 00:04 |
XRevan86 | I'd imagine that Opus would be a better fit for high-quality sound than anything else. | Jun 05 00:06 |
XRevan86 | For low-latency maybe not. | Jun 05 00:07 |

DaemonFC | Another "major version bump" with nothing important. | Jun 05 00:07 |
XRevan86 | Still one version behind Chromium :) | Jun 05 00:07 |
XRevan86 | They're almost exactly one version apart. | Jun 05 00:07 |
DaemonFC | One design goal of Opus was low algorithmic delay. | Jun 05 00:07 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC: But is it lower than SBC? | Jun 05 00:08 |
DaemonFC | I think under the worst case situation, it's about 6% of the algorithmic delay of MP3 and about 1/3rd of xHE-AAC. | Jun 05 00:08 |
Broyal | best codec is ogg | Jun 05 00:08 |
DaemonFC | It would probably be imperceptibly different as far as compared with SBC. | Jun 05 00:09 |
Broyal | its what pigs use | Jun 05 00:09 |
XRevan86 | Broyal: OGG is not a codec at all, it's a container. | Jun 05 00:09 |
DaemonFC | Where you really start running into aggravating delay problems is around 80 ms. | Jun 05 00:09 |
XRevan86 | Broyal: Opus is conventionally packed into OGG. | Jun 05 00:09 |
DaemonFC | So xHE-AAC, which allegedly competes with Opus, it's pushing into that boundary. | Jun 05 00:09 |
DaemonFC | And you walk into another patent mess. | Jun 05 00:10 |
DaemonFC | So there's really no reason to use it. | Jun 05 00:10 |
Broyal | x265 is best video codec | Jun 05 00:10 |
XRevan86 | Broyal: Better than AV1? | Jun 05 00:10 |
XRevan86 | "Opus is conventionally packed into OGG" <- Also into Matroska as .webm | Jun 05 00:11 |
DaemonFC | x265 is excruciatingly slow. | Jun 05 00:11 |
DaemonFC | Like, if you want to rip a Blu Ray and convert, you need to leave the computer going all night, and that's with a beefy video card helping out. | Jun 05 00:11 |
Broyal | i dont do rips :) | Jun 05 00:12 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC: Apparently AV1 is heavier to encode than HEVC. | Jun 05 00:12 |
Broyal | you leave the computer going all night | Jun 05 00:13 |
Broyal | who cares | Jun 05 00:13 |
XRevan86 | But AV1 should be better overall. | Jun 05 00:13 |
XRevan86 | Not only because it's royalty-free unlike H.265 :). | Jun 05 00:14 |
Broyal | use a cloud encoder | Jun 05 00:14 |
Broyal | upload it to yt and download it again as AV1 | Jun 05 00:15 |
*XRevan86 shrugs at this helpful advice. | Jun 05 00:15 | |
Broyal | doesnt yt rencodes your videos? | Jun 05 00:16 |
XRevan86 | Obviously does. | Jun 05 00:17 |
Broyal | i was shooting in the dark | Jun 05 00:17 |
DaemonFC | Depends what you upload in. | Jun 05 00:17 |
DaemonFC | If you upload WebM to begin with, it does not re-encode unless someone wants to view it in Safari or something. | Jun 05 00:18 |
DaemonFC | I noticed that when I downloaded some videos that were obviously Opus to begin with. | Jun 05 00:18 |
DaemonFC | For the audio codec. | Jun 05 00:18 |

XRevan86 | What a useless discussion. | Jun 05 00:19 |
DaemonFC | YouTube to MP3 rippers are the worst. | Jun 05 00:19 |
DaemonFC | It can go from MP3 to Opus to MP3 again. | Jun 05 00:19 |
XRevan86 | It's possible to get an .opus file with yt-dlp without any re-encoding whatsoever. | Jun 05 00:20 |

DaemonFC | ffmpeg is a mess | Jun 05 00:23 |
XRevan86 | It is? | Jun 05 00:23 |
DaemonFC | Too many codecs that are redundant and half-finished. | Jun 05 00:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | so do't use them | Jun 05 00:24 |
Broyal | What video formats do you support? We support conversions to most of the available media formats out there, which include .mp3, .m4a, .aac, .flac, .ogg, .wav, .wma, .mp4, .avi, .mpg, .wmv, .mov, .flv and .m4v. | Jun 05 00:25 |
DaemonFC | They make "native codecs" and they aren't very good and they just get put in there and left. | Jun 05 00:25 |
DaemonFC | And then you have to use the official one anyway, which is a plug-in. | Jun 05 00:25 |
Broyal | there a bunch of online video convertersd | Jun 05 00:28 |
Broyal | you just need a sumb terminal to use them | Jun 05 00:28 |

MinceR | but none of the above would take more than an Exterminatus to fix anyway | Jun 05 03:02 |

schestowitz | First of all, I want to make it very clear that I am not in favor of war, under any circumstances. In the case of the Russia/Ukraine conflict, it is a situation that should be resolved between the two countries, without outside interference in any way. But, this is not what happened, and neither is it what is happening now. | Jun 05 07:01 |
schestowitz | Unfortunately, the technology companies are playing a very ambiguous and mean-spirited role in this conflict, on the one hand trying to appear to promote peace, but in fact stirring up hatred. In my view of what is happening, it is a repeat of the Cuban missile crisis, only in reverse, in simple lines. | Jun 05 07:01 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-pclosmag.com | PCLinuxOS Magazine - Page 12 | Jun 05 07:01 | |

schestowitz | Agent Smith, a.k.a. Alessandro Ebersol, is a frequent contributor to The PCLinuxOS Magazine. He has stepped up to help produce exclusive content for The PCLinuxOS Magazine when virtually no one else would. He is passionate about battling the continuing and continued overreach of Big Tech. He is passionate about PCLinuxOS. He is passionate about gaming on PCLinuxOS. Living in Brazil, he sometimes has a different take on events than many of the other | Jun 05 07:01 |

schestowitz | Google has decided to censor the Kremlin-linked channels Russia Today (RT) and Sputnik. The tech giant will cut the reach of these publications in Europe during the Ukraine War, with the excuse of preventing the spread of fake news from the Kremlin. However, this decision, since most people nowadays inform themselves through YouTube or via Google News, creates mass disinformation and no chance for contradiction, which creates a spirit of Russian | Jun 05 07:02 |

matey | like ive connected dvi and vga to the same monitor | Jun 05 15:57 |

matey | why not have a monitor that shows half the picture on one side... | Jun 05 16:12 |
matey | and half on the other? | Jun 05 16:12 |
matey | oh! because monitors are thankfully not designed like many bluetooth speakers | Jun 05 16:12 |

matey | now | Jun 05 16:16 |
matey | mplayer is playing sound | Jun 05 16:16 |
matey | hdmi shows the picture | Jun 05 16:16 |
MinceR | some of that stuff is designed to work with bouncing sound off the walls | Jun 05 16:16 |
matey | and the sound is coming out (over the headphone jack) to the dj monitors | Jun 05 16:16 |
matey | so no, hdmi does not "steal" the sound | Jun 05 16:17 |
matey | rather it provides an audio device that sound can play to | Jun 05 16:17 |
matey | and its up to the operating system (not the monitor) to figure out where the sound goes | Jun 05 16:17 |
matey | i might add that "configuration" consisted of connecting the cables and-- thats it | Jun 05 16:18 |
MinceR | that was not schestowitz_TR2's problem | Jun 05 16:18 |
MinceR | his problem was that the monitor was unwilling to play audio on its built-in speakers coming from its analog audio input as long as it was connected via HDMI | Jun 05 16:18 |
XRevan86 | That's of course the monitor's fault. | Jun 05 16:19 |
matey | then i understood him correctly | Jun 05 16:19 |
matey | coming from its analog audio input <- guys, thats via the headphone jack, at least historically | Jun 05 16:19 |
matey | the analog audio input for a monitor connects to what? | Jun 05 16:20 |
XRevan86 | But I don't understand the configuration all that well. | Jun 05 16:20 |
matey | ive had monitors with that feature | Jun 05 16:20 |
matey | <schestowitz_TR2> seems like hdmi is dumber than i expected | Jun 05 16:21 |
matey | #techrights : 06/05/22 14:28 <schestowitz_TR2> it 'steal's sound | Jun 05 16:21 |
matey | i believe he means it prevents his headphone jack from working | Jun 05 16:21 |
XRevan86 | The monitor, when connected to HDMI, doesn't take any sound to output from the JACK? | Jun 05 16:21 |
matey | JACK is an audio (software) plugboard | Jun 05 16:22 |
matey | the jack (the headphone "port") is what hes complaining about, i believe | Jun 05 16:22 |
XRevan86 | 3.5mm | Jun 05 16:22 |
matey | right | Jun 05 16:22 |
matey | and mine is working fine | Jun 05 16:22 |
matey | because its not part of hdmi to "steal" the audio | Jun 05 16:22 |
matey | its up to the os | Jun 05 16:22 |
XRevan86 | matey: Ye also have a monitor with a 3.5mm jack and an HDMI port? | Jun 05 16:22 |
matey | Ye also have a monitor with a 3.5mm jack <- i have before. but what difference does it make to this | Jun 05 16:23 |
XRevan86 | matey: It might decide to only take information from one port at a time. | Jun 05 16:23 |
matey | whether the headphone jack (output) connects to speakers glued to the monitor, or any other speakers | Jun 05 16:23 |
XRevan86 | And if it's bad enough, not even allow to re-configure that. | Jun 05 16:23 |
matey | It might decide to only take information from one port at a time. <- maybe, however | Jun 05 16:23 |
matey | in my experience at least, the speakers on the monitor arent that smart | Jun 05 16:24 |
matey | and the monitor (controls) dont control the sound anyway | Jun 05 16:24 |
XRevan86 | In my experience the speakers on the monitor are such it's better to not have any. | Jun 05 16:24 |
matey | yeah but wanting them to work when theyre needed isnt unreasonable | Jun 05 16:24 |
matey | its clear that roy blamed hdmi, youre faulting his monitor | Jun 05 16:25 |
XRevan86 | yes | Jun 05 16:25 |
XRevan86 | It's not HDMI's fault for being capable to transfer sound. | Jun 05 16:25 |
matey | <schestowitz_TR2> seems like hdmi is dumber than i expected | Jun 05 16:25 |

matey | <XRevan86> It's not HDMI's fault for being capable to transfer sound. <- thats exactly the point im making by connecting my laptop to hdmi and connecting speakers to my headphone jack, and having it work the way i want | Jun 05 16:26 |
XRevan86 | It's a bus, it transmissions what is being told to it. | Jun 05 16:26 |
matey | mmhmm | Jun 05 16:26 |
matey | but roy blamed hdmi | Jun 05 16:26 |
matey | my point was this isnt hdmis doung | Jun 05 16:26 |
matey | doing | Jun 05 16:26 |
XRevan86 | Same. | Jun 05 16:26 |
sergay | https://www.theregister.com/2022/06/03/bsa_criticizes_cert_in_rules/ | Jun 05 16:26 |
matey | im not really a fan of hdmi | Jun 05 16:27 |
XRevan86 | It's a patent trap after all. | Jun 05 16:27 |
matey | i prefer simplicity, and hdmi fails there | Jun 05 16:27 |
matey | but for a rasp spy what are the options? | Jun 05 16:27 |
XRevan86 | And a DRM trap as well. | Jun 05 16:27 |
matey | yeah | Jun 05 16:27 |
matey | so when someone gave me a rasp spy i bought it a cable so i could connect it to my monitor | Jun 05 16:27 |
matey | its a cheap cable too, cheap enough that if it didnt work id say "eh, cheap cable" | Jun 05 16:28 |
matey | and not be all that surprised | Jun 05 16:28 |

*TechrightsBot-tr (~TR@ju4kayhrhsm6a.irc) has joined #techrights | Jun 05 16:30 | |
TechrightsBot-tr | Hello World! I'm TechrightsBot-tr running phIRCe v0.77 | Jun 05 16:30 |
sergay | STFU | Jun 05 16:30 |
schestowitz_TR2 | ? | Jun 05 16:30 |
matey | as evidenced by the fact that i just plugged in speakers into my headphone jack, connected the monitor to hdmi and it still works | Jun 05 16:30 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I got my laptop working through headphones and speakers at the same time | Jun 05 16:31 |
matey | <sergay> ksh: STFU: not found | Jun 05 16:31 |
schestowitz_TR2 | but with LennartAudio I could not find such an option | Jun 05 16:31 |
matey | but with LennartAudio I could not find such an option <- maybe we found the culprit | Jun 05 16:31 |
matey | either way its not hdmi | Jun 05 16:31 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and a monitor I bought in 2011 off the display counter is used for sound | Jun 05 16:31 |
matey | yeah ive done that before | Jun 05 16:31 |
schestowitz_TR2 | even before PA I don't recall it being possible | Jun 05 16:31 |
matey | it connects to your headphone jack, yes? | Jun 05 16:31 |
schestowitz_TR2 | yes | Jun 05 16:31 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and thhen splits off physically | Jun 05 16:32 |
matey | so basically its just a set of powered speakers for your headphone jack | Jun 05 16:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I did the same 20+ years ago | Jun 05 16:32 |
matey | which are physically attached to your monitor | Jun 05 16:32 |
sergay | i get internet from HDMI | Jun 05 16:32 |
matey | I did the same 20+ years ago <- yeah it was a packard bell monitor i had with these things | Jun 05 16:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | hdmi is drm trasnsport | Jun 05 16:32 |
matey | and like mincer says, crappy speakers | Jun 05 16:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it can work without drm too | Jun 05 16:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | but that's not what it is for | Jun 05 16:32 |
matey | but sometimes those are the ones that arent being used | Jun 05 16:32 |
matey | it can work without drm too <- it seems to. i guess | Jun 05 16:33 |
XRevan86 | PipeWire (with qpwgraph as UI for instance) can pipe different applications to different outputs. | Jun 05 16:33 |
sergay | drm only "works" with nvidea | Jun 05 16:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | you can get hdmi clables for one pound | Jun 05 16:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | not very good ones | Jun 05 16:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | but they don't last very long | Jun 05 16:33 |
matey | yeah id rather pay a few pounds for an hdmi cable | Jun 05 16:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | if you saw the specs, it's probbaly proprietary can of worms | Jun 05 16:34 |
matey | but when i bought one for my spy i got the one they were selling | Jun 05 16:34 |
XRevan86 | It's very easy to tell one application to go to HDMI with the default being internal audio / 3.5mm jack | Jun 05 16:34 |
schestowitz_TR2 | with secrets and nda to 'protect' the 'protected' 'content' | Jun 05 16:34 |
matey | which cost a few pounds (or the equivalent) | Jun 05 16:34 |
XRevan86 | I don't think internal audio and 3.5mm jack can be discriminated. | Jun 05 16:34 |
XRevan86 | But HDMI and Bluetooth can. | Jun 05 16:34 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I've just retrieved some old music | Jun 05 16:35 |
matey | I don't think internal audio and 3.5mm jack can be discriminated. <- i think its at least theoretically possible these days | Jun 05 16:35 |
schestowitz_TR2 | going back two decades plus | Jun 05 16:35 |
XRevan86 | matey: Maybe on different hardware. | Jun 05 16:35 |
matey | but whether any software is designed to do it | Jun 05 16:35 |
matey | maybe | Jun 05 16:35 |
matey | on older hardware i think its impossible | Jun 05 16:35 |
matey | on newer hardware i think it depends. sometimes. | Jun 05 16:36 |
XRevan86 | I have Intel HD sound. | Jun 05 16:36 |
matey | i think headphone jacks have moved in the same direction | Jun 05 16:36 |
sergay | i cant tell the difrence between hdmi and vga on my monitor | Jun 05 16:37 |
XRevan86 | sergay: That means your monitor is… not great. | Jun 05 16:37 |
sergay | are you sure? | Jun 05 16:37 |
sergay | well its 1080p | Jun 05 16:38 |
sergay | i just use vga cause its snappyer | Jun 05 16:39 |
XRevan86 | sergay: 1080p is pretty much the maximum VGA can do. | Jun 05 16:39 |
sergay | you cant tell the difrence | Jun 05 16:39 |
matey | <sergay> you cant tell the difrence <- maybe the issue is the graphics card | Jun 05 16:40 |
sergay | the only thing is you dont get sound of the monitor | Jun 05 16:40 |
XRevan86 | https://bluecinetech.co.uk/vga-max-resolution/ found an article | Jun 05 16:40 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.bluecinetech.co.uk | VGA Max Resolution: Is VGA Capable of 1080p and HD? - Blue Cine Tech | Jun 05 16:40 | |
XRevan86 | "the only thing is you dont get sound of the monitor" <- No, that's the difference between *DVI* and HDMI. | Jun 05 16:41 |
sergay | you could if you pluggin some cable | Jun 05 16:41 |
sergay | BS theres DVI with sound | Jun 05 16:41 |
sergay | theres no vga with sound | Jun 05 16:41 |
XRevan86 | Oh, right, there is. | Jun 05 16:42 |
sergay | the monitor has mic | Jun 05 16:43 |
sergay | i think | Jun 05 16:43 |
XRevan86 | Questionable solution, it's not like anyone is going to position their mouth right next to the monitor. | Jun 05 16:43 |
sergay | but the thing is you cant tell vga from hdmi !:) | Jun 05 16:43 |
XRevan86 | I guess it's better than a laptop-integrated microphone, so not too terrible. | Jun 05 16:44 |
sergay | mic jack you idiot | Jun 05 16:44 |
matey | it's not like anyone is going to position their mouth right next to the monitor. <- *picks up the mouse* "hello, computer!" | Jun 05 16:44 |
XRevan86 | "you idiot" <- I was supposed to know that in your terminology "mic jack" means "3.5mm jack used either for speakers or a microphone" | Jun 05 16:45 |
sergay | it's not like anyone is going to position their mouth right next to the monitor > laptops have mic on the monitor screen | Jun 05 16:45 |
sergay | XRevan86 are you geting everything wrong on pourpose? | Jun 05 16:45 |
matey | /me doesnt know why chunky changes nicks so often | Jun 05 16:46 |
*matey has quit (connection closed) | Jun 05 16:46 | |
sergay | must be something to do with politics | Jun 05 16:47 |
XRevan86 | Right, I'll leave you be. | Jun 05 16:48 |
sergay | politics = DRM | Jun 05 16:48 |
XRevan86 | VGA is the best port to connect a digital monitor. | Jun 05 16:49 |
sergay | s/politics/policys | Jun 05 16:49 |
sergay | why? | Jun 05 16:49 |
XRevan86 | Sounds dumb, doesn't it? | Jun 05 16:50 |
sergay | just cause it sounds doesnt mean it is | Jun 05 16:50 |
sergay | in reality its working the same from were im siting | Jun 05 16:51 |
sergay | i tried both ways and couldn't tell any difference? | Jun 05 16:52 |
sergay | and this way i got hdmi port free if i want to watch something on big TV | Jun 05 16:54 |

matey | /me is sure people here can see / have seen major threats that were left out | Jun 05 17:08 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it's a very partial list | Jun 05 17:08 |
schestowitz_TR2 | limited to internet-type things | Jun 05 17:09 |
matey | heh | Jun 05 17:09 |
matey | limited to things that were already true in 2017-2018 | Jun 05 17:09 |
matey | imo the worst has happened since | Jun 05 17:09 |
matey | dont get me wrong, the stuff that is on the list belongs there | Jun 05 17:10 |
matey | and its very hard to make anything entirely comprehensive | Jun 05 17:10 |
matey | youd sort of need a second universe to describe the first one | Jun 05 17:11 |
matey | but theres a "shape" to whats left out, and imo no justification for that limit in scope | Jun 05 17:11 |
matey | it simply reflects what techrights cant bring itself to talk about sincerely | Jun 05 17:11 |
matey | just like it took forever to get systemd right | Jun 05 17:12 |
matey | in a few years, maybe it will talk about whats happened in a way that reflects what has actually happened | Jun 05 17:12 |
matey | but just like its too late to save gnu/linux from the systemd takeover | Jun 05 17:13 |

matey | april has always been pretty quiet, sadly | Jun 05 17:15 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I recall them being more vocal around 2010 | Jun 05 17:16 |
schestowitz_TR2 | when jeremie was more active in politics | Jun 05 17:16 |
matey | everyone was more vocal around 2010 | Jun 05 17:16 |
schestowitz_TR2 | then he went mamut and toot | Jun 05 17:16 |
schestowitz_TR2 | matey: true also | Jun 05 17:17 |

matey | on the net | Jun 05 17:17 |
matey | at least | Jun 05 17:17 |
schestowitz_TR2 | seems many people increasingly got muzzled by fake social fake media | Jun 05 17:17 |
matey | that too | Jun 05 17:17 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and then it shuts down | Jun 05 17:17 |
schestowitz_TR2 | digg, icentica, and the domino bticks still fall | Jun 05 17:17 |

schestowitz_TR2 | after joindiaspora it'll be twitter for sure, maybe not in that order of sequence | Jun 05 17:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | mastodon is barely growing | Jun 05 17:18 |
matey | after joindiaspora it'll be twitter for sure <- i thought it would be fun to see it turn into musker | Jun 05 17:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | iirc, irc turns 35 next year | Jun 05 17:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | sandbag is leaving FB | Jun 05 17:19 |
schestowitz_TR2 | or got ousted | Jun 05 17:19 |
schestowitz_TR2 | which means FB is really hot on gasoline | Jun 05 17:19 |
sergay | whats that video about? | Jun 05 17:19 |
schestowitz_TR2 | just strike a match | Jun 05 17:19 |
schestowitz_TR2 | matey: seems he realised twitter is a dud | Jun 05 17:19 |
schestowitz_TR2 | or he never meant to buy anyway | Jun 05 17:19 |
schestowitz_TR2 | sure got a ton of free publicity out of a 2 paragraph letter | Jun 05 17:19 |
matey | yep "IRC was created by Jarkko Oikarinen in August 1988" | Jun 05 17:20 |
sergay | hes a freind of linus? | Jun 05 17:20 |
schestowitz_TR2 | irc does not get bloated like 'social' 'media' | Jun 05 17:20 |
schestowitz_TR2 | adds a bit of unicide | Jun 05 17:20 |
schestowitz_TR2 | the /history stuff from ircv3 is not imposed | Jun 05 17:20 |
schestowitz_TR2 | backward compatible with the simpest irc stuff | Jun 05 17:21 |
schestowitz_TR2 | same in gemin i | Jun 05 17:21 |
sergay | irc does not get bloated like 'social' 'media' LOL | Jun 05 17:21 |
schestowitz_TR2 | any capsule is accessible to anything | Jun 05 17:21 |
matey | i dunno, i think someh4x0r has reason to be concerned | Jun 05 17:21 |
matey | but | Jun 05 17:21 |
matey | i would say irc is possibly (maybe) like unix | Jun 05 17:21 |
schestowitz_TR2 | the www became "must cookie " must workers" "must JS" ... | Jun 05 17:21 |
schestowitz_TR2 | so it's no longer pretending to eb a spec for a browser | Jun 05 17:21 |
matey | in that a lot of people will go the gnu/linux/systemd route and fuck it up royally | Jun 05 17:21 |
schestowitz_TR2 | or two browsers controlled by gulag | Jun 05 17:21 |
schestowitz_TR2 | esp. ther "worker" parts | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | webassembly and all | Jun 05 17:22 |
matey | and some people (the openbsd of irc) will stick closer to the original | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | DRM/EME | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | the web is a laughing stock these days | Jun 05 17:22 |
matey | even if most irc becomes a bloated mess, which could happen | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it's not even pretnding to be standard | Jun 05 17:22 |
matey | the web is a laughing stock these days <- yep | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | chrome is not a web browsr | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | chrome is an application/virtual machines | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | the www/html is just a transport layer for this application | Jun 05 17:22 |
sergay | the web ª= google | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | to pass around data | Jun 05 17:22 |
matey | virtual machines? | Jun 05 17:22 |
schestowitz_TR2 | like binaries | Jun 05 17:22 |
sergay | the web = google | Jun 05 17:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | matey: akin to | Jun 05 17:23 |
sergay | i cant find nay page it doesnt link to google | Jun 05 17:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | look into the latest undocumented specs | Jun 05 17:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | they ship byecodes and stuff | Jun 05 17:23 |
matey | where are the undocumented specs documented? | Jun 05 17:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | the web turnhed from "let's make this work using standards" | Jun 05 17:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | intoo: | Jun 05 17:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | "let's make these "standards" suit the needs of this application" | Jun 05 17:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | so now you can run an OS like win95 in the 'browser' | Jun 05 17:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | 30 million lines of code and fast growing | Jun 05 17:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | to impplement a 'satndard | Jun 05 17:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | reminds me of OOXML | Jun 05 17:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | the devs don't work to standarsds | Jun 05 17:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | they work WITH framewowrks | Jun 05 17:25 |
matey | the fact that js is turing complete meant all it had to do was become fast enough | Jun 05 17:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | those frameworks are tested for compatibility | Jun 05 17:25 |
matey | and this was a possibility | Jun 05 17:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | no standard compliance | Jun 05 17:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | they test against software | Jun 05 17:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | not specs | Jun 05 17:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | even the js gets obfuscatd a lot | Jun 05 17:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | they say for performance | Jun 05 17:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | on 10Mbit/sec connection | Jun 05 17:26 |
sergay | you can mine bitcoin using the web | Jun 05 17:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | while they ship 2MB font files | Jun 05 17:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | go to google.com | Jun 05 17:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | press view source | Jun 05 17:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and tell me if that "code" makes sense | Jun 05 17:26 |
matey | im sure it does help performance | Jun 05 17:26 |
matey | it is unfortunate that they push js into tasks where the performance different matters | Jun 05 17:27 |
schestowitz_TR2 | sergay: passing the electirc bilsl to you | Jun 05 17:27 |
schestowitz_TR2 | using the breoser | Jun 05 17:27 |
matey | i would say bloat has no place on the web | Jun 05 17:27 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and you don't even know what the heck it does | Jun 05 17:27 |

matey | IRC was used to report on the 1991 Soviet coup d'état attempt throughout a media blackout.[9] It was previously used in a similar fashion during the Gulf War. | Jun 05 17:34 |

sergay | 1991 was pottin | Jun 05 17:35 |
schestowitz_TR2 | irc scales ok with that | Jun 05 17:35 |
matey | Another fork effort, the first that made a lasting difference, was initiated by "Wildthang" in the United States in October 1992. (It forked off the EFnet ircd version 2.8.10). It was meant to be just a test network to develop bots on but it quickly grew to a network "for friends and their friends". | Jun 05 17:35 |
matey | i used irc on dialup of course | Jun 05 17:35 |
matey | in dos | Jun 05 17:36 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I did not on dos | Jun 05 17:36 |
schestowitz_TR2 | what did you use to dial up in dos? | Jun 05 17:36 |
schestowitz_TR2 | bbs eras? | Jun 05 17:36 |
matey | The "undernetters" wanted to take ircd further in an attempt to make it use less bandwidth and to try to sort out the channel chaos (netsplits and takeovers) that EFnet started to suffer from. For the latter purpose, the Undernet implemented timestamps, new routing and offered the CService—a program that allowed users to register channels and then attempted to protect them from troublemakers. | Jun 05 17:36 |

schestowitz_TR2 | needs some multitasking | Jun 05 17:38 |
matey | no | Jun 05 17:38 |
matey | i mean dos could do tsr and the modem connection is done with hardware | Jun 05 17:39 |
matey | so while the modem stays connected, a non-multitasking os can read from the modem when it wants to | Jun 05 17:39 |
matey | its like saying you need multitasking have a mouse cursor | Jun 05 17:39 |

matey | when i say it was still running, thats sort of a misnomer. it couldnt "do" anything while it was running an irc program | Jun 05 17:43 |
matey | just like if you run qbasic from qbasic, you cant "switch back" to the first qb without ending the second one | Jun 05 17:43 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Borland Sidekick - Wikipedia | Jun 05 17:45 | |
sergay | with that nick he should be 16 in 1999 | Jun 05 17:45 |
matey | Borland Sidekick was a personal information manager (PIM) launched by American software company Borland in 1984 under Philippe Kahn's leadership. It was an early and popular terminate and stay resident program (TSR) for MS-DOS which enabled computer users to activate the program using a hot key combination | Jun 05 17:46 |
matey | i think i had it set up to use both shift keys | Jun 05 17:46 |
matey | the default is ctrl-alt and thats shit | Jun 05 17:46 |
matey | calling it a "personal information manager" is nearly misleading | Jun 05 17:46 |
matey | it was an editor, a calculator, a lot of utilities you might use in dos one at a time, or together in a multitasking environment | Jun 05 17:47 |
matey | for example, i could (if i wanted) do all my text editing and coding in sidekick | Jun 05 17:47 |
matey | this wasnt my preference, but it was a nice option | Jun 05 17:47 |
matey | you could be working on something, hit shift-shift, then add something to the text editor and "close" it again, at which point it wasnt really closed | Jun 05 17:48 |
matey | not bad, for dos | Jun 05 17:48 |
matey | one of the cooler programs i used prior to windows | Jun 05 17:48 |
matey | According to Philippe Kahn, Borland did not originally intend to sell Sidekick. It developed the utility to assist the small company's employees. | Jun 05 17:49 |
matey | Sidekick 1.0 Plus included a broader selection of calculators (Business, Scientific, Programmer, Formula), a 9-file Notepad text editor, Appointment Book and Scheduler, a terminal communication tool and ASCII Table. In addition to variants on and enhancements to the 1.0 features, Plus included a 9-file Outliner, q file and directory manager, Clipboard, and supported Expanded Memory and a RAM disk. | Jun 05 17:49 |
matey | the lead ultimately took it with him when he left, founded a company that worked on it further, then sold to motorola | Jun 05 17:50 |
matey | the windows version even synced with a palm | Jun 05 17:50 |
matey | so maybe thats why they call it a personal information manager | Jun 05 17:51 |

schestowitz_TR2 | don't mention it on twitter | Jun 05 18:23 |
matey | its not a bad page, in terms of throwing a lot of information together in a single place. its actually good enough that if youre new here, youd be forgiven for thinking the following is a nitpick. | Jun 05 18:23 |
schestowitz_TR2 | do not upload to GULAGtube either | Jun 05 18:24 |
matey | it isnt. the page omits and tiptoes around the same things techrights always omits and tiptoes around. that makes it worth noting. | Jun 05 18:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it says hitler in the title | Jun 05 18:24 |
matey | i should be impressed, i suppose, that it finally admits a point mincer worked for more than a decade on: | Jun 05 18:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and has some portions in the video that show hitler | Jun 05 18:24 |
matey | > IBM has followed Microsoft's outline from the Halloween Documents and been able to use systemd to decommodify GNU/Linux in such a way that it becomes so complex that their services must be hired | Jun 05 18:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | that's like memorablia | Jun 05 18:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | gulag is not a free speech company, it's a business | Jun 05 18:24 |
matey | this is a far cry from "neutral or apathetic", its true-- but the years-late, too-late admission that red hat and ibm have thwarted the free software ecosystem only means that everything has already been taken over. for a more extreme example, its more useful (in practical terms) to note that genocide is occurring and ongoing, than it is to admit it after the fact. | Jun 05 18:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | they would bury or removee the video one way or another | Jun 05 18:24 |
schestowitz_TR2 | maybe copyrights | Jun 05 18:24 |
matey | the latter of course matters a great deal in historical terms, though it isnt going to bring back those that are lost. | Jun 05 18:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | maybe traemarks | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | this would have been a more useful thing to admit half a decade ago, when roy was still fence-riding. even this is no guarantee that the issue wont be downplayed again. | Jun 05 18:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | watson(tm) is a trademark | Jun 05 18:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | of IBM | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | bad companies and things bad companies do are very important in the big picture (and even the small details) regarding what has happened to free software. we should be holding these companies responsible, so naming them and attributing to them to what theyve done to us is worthwhile. but what does that leave out? | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | the greatest omission ive found could fit into any of the following categories or subcategories listed already: | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | * 3 Disenfranchisement | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | * 4 Censorship | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | * = 4.1 K. A custom-made censorship based on profiling | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | * 7 Entrapment | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | * 8 Other Threats (Peripheral) | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | corrupt / defunct / colluding organisations are mentioned, though only when they are ORIGINAL proxies to corporations, such as the ones started by people from microsoft. | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | but organisations that have been taken over by, or lowered the drawbridge to these same companies? they get no mention. | Jun 05 18:25 |
matey | media manipulation gets a category, but the very counterrevolution that is "open source"? dont worry about it. osi was taken over by microsoft, and microsoft is listed, but the betrayal by osi almost seems to be something roy hopes can be undone if we just make things clear enough to those responsible. | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | its even more ridiculous than assuming the same will happen to the new fsf, and there is no mention of the coup at all. | Jun 05 18:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | SFC is not allowed to criticise IBM | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | indeed | Jun 05 18:26 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and it is now ALLOWING to criticise IBM, either | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | the collusion of people within the free software movement with open source and these companies, is what destroyed the fsf, ended stallmans career (what he does in his retirement is lovely, but even his talks are berift of soul and vital new information, which is what you would expect from someone who was destroyed by the two-faced among his own people) and now turn the fsf into a pathetic osi-inspired shitshow. | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | the coup has gone on for years, and the damage is devastating. it has become an occupation, but just as techrights took more than half a decade (too late, maybe even by design) to get this right, it has downplayed the coup since 2019 the same way it downplayed systemd. you can be certain that it will be too late when techrights finally has a proper look at what the fuck happened. | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | no coup, no new fsf, not even osi is listed as a threat. in an article last year, techrights said osi is dead. i said that it keeps taking terrible things that are actually true of the fsf and the free software movement, and re-framing those things as being osi and open source-- osi is dead, they attacked open source. | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | the fsf is dead, they attacked free software. thats way more important, but just like techrights rode the fence for years while debian and red hat committed seppuku, roy isnt ready to admit it. he misleads, he downplays, he omits-- while techrights fails to cover the biggest story, except in a way that makes it seem like less than a big deal. | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | the biggest, baddest page on the wiki in over a year just happens to fail to cover it too. | Jun 05 18:26 |
matey | is this a drawback of the wiki page? the wiki? | Jun 05 18:27 |
matey | actually, its a drawback of techrights itself: cover every story BUT the biggest! | Jun 05 18:27 |
matey | i mean thats typical by now. techrights is incredibly brave when it comes to side issues and scandals that people perhaps SHOULD but clearly DO NOT care about, especially after resignations come. | Jun 05 18:27 |
matey | when it comes to the biggest problems that are closest to home, techrights says DONT MENTION THE WAR! | Jun 05 18:27 |

matey | its also too late for it not to be a 15 (and a half) year old blog that has a pattern of downplaying the most important (even existential) crises in the movement while treating the 3rd-and-4th-worst threats as the biggest. | Jun 05 18:27 |
schestowitz_TR2 | you cannot criticise ibm | Jun 05 18:27 |
matey | <schestowitz_TR2> you cannot criticise ibm <- somehow i manage | Jun 05 18:27 |
matey | its funny how when you make a habit of that, everything else you do does more to serve bullshit than it does to inform; open source has done the same for decades, using real (but smaller) issues as decoys from even more urgent ones. | Jun 05 18:28 |
matey | but then, thats techrights-- to a t. its also what was done to the fsf to destroy it from the inside, what was done by the mob to stallman, and what is still being done by (and to) the board and everything from and tangential to the new fsf. | Jun 05 18:28 |
matey | free software isnt bullshit-- but most of the things that propped it up from the beginning have turned into bullshit. | Jun 05 18:28 |
matey | techrights just says "COMPANIES DOING BAD THINGS!" | Jun 05 18:28 |
matey | yes, thats true. but while its true, its missing a very key part of the story. if you rely on techrights as your "radar" for free softwares survival, youll see the blips techrights shows you and miss so much of whats going on, you might as well say youve been left out of the picture. | Jun 05 18:28 |
matey | you will see those blips though-- over and over and over again. and free software continues to fall apart. what a shame, you would think techrights wanted that fixed. how does it plan to achieve that? with the same old shit, just like the fsf itself. | Jun 05 18:28 |
schestowitz_TR2 | you can edit the wiki | Jun 05 18:28 |
matey | i will not | Jun 05 18:28 |
matey | when the fsf eats itself, techrights keeps calling it progress. and the corporations are still bad, but the people who sold us out to them year after year? lets not worry, we can just keep allowing that, the real problems are the big bad companies-- NOT the people who keep dragging us into servitude of the same bad companies... apparently. | Jun 05 18:29 |

schestowitz_TR2 | and it was a first attempot | Jun 05 18:29 |
matey | we used to call them shills and traitors. now "we" treat them like victims of circumstance-- as if they were helpless to not stab us in the back. well, the news is out: theyre not our opponents at all! backstabbers and saboteurs are our FRIENDS now. isnt that wonderful? not really, but i guess it gets pageviews. | Jun 05 18:29 |
matey | it was a good first attempt | Jun 05 18:29 |
matey | i suppose waiting five years to tell the real story is just a good publishing strategy. for free software, id call it a negative. if this wasnt part of a pattern of deflection and misleading people spanning years at a time, then it really might be a nitpick. | Jun 05 18:29 |

schestowitz_TR2 | in planet debian | Jun 05 18:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | very rarely blogs | Jun 05 18:33 |
matey | he did an article called "in defence of negativity" that i think resulted from an exchange we had in whats now "the fediverse" | Jun 05 18:33 |
matey | youll note its circa 2010 | Jun 05 18:33 |
matey | he also did an article saying that when free software isnt (technically) better, its still free, and that matters | Jun 05 18:34 |
matey | free software is often (technically) better, but putting too much stress on that is an open source thing, which he brought counterpoint to | Jun 05 18:35 |
matey | i dont have any faith left in mako or walsh | Jun 05 18:35 |
matey | and ive been criticising cc forever | Jun 05 18:35 |
matey | i dont have the information i need to heavily critique either of them | Jun 05 18:35 |
matey | the most damning thing i know other than the timing of their resignations (which i agree is fishy) is your mention of walshs vote | Jun 05 18:36 |
matey | thats something at least | Jun 05 18:36 |
matey | im not sure if i put it in the treachery category | Jun 05 18:36 |
matey | but i wouldnt throw it casually into the non-treachery category either | Jun 05 18:37 |
matey | fortunately, theres a "fishy" category | Jun 05 18:37 |
matey | and the vote against bringing stallman back is pretty damned significant | Jun 05 18:37 |
matey | but its also news to me, and as much as i prefer to have proportional responses to treachery | Jun 05 18:37 |

schestowitz_TR2 | I reject Irving Wladawsky-Berger accusations that before, during, or after my interview with him for The Corporation he was “deceived” by me or anyone involved in making the film. In making The Corporation we sought to treat everyone we interviewed fairly, both out of respect and in order to inform our audience as thoroughly as we could. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | The basis of his erroneous allegations is that he was "tricked" because we discussed many issues relating to corporate social responsibility but in the final film used only portions regarding evidence of IBM's role in streamlining the mass slaughter of Jews in WWII. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | There was no deception. Our letter of invitation to IBM accurately described the film as a "multi-faceted discussion" addressing the corporation's "history and role in modern society" at a time when "the critics of corporations are increasingly vocal." Mr. Wladawsky-Berger chose to speak as an IBM representative about the responsibilities corporations bear to society. In that context it was reasonable to explore the evidence of IBM | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | 's role in the Holocaust and offer IBM the opportunity to address it. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I agree that we were “nicely chatting”, as he suggests, but that did not alter the fundamental nature of the interview that he had agreed to do - namely a professional interview for the purpose of a documentary film and television series. If Mr. Wladawsky-Berger was insufficiently prepared to answer some questions, he was free to say so, suggest we speak with someone else, and leave it at that. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I “high-fived” no one after Mr. Wladawsky-Berger’s interview. We didn't think it went particularly well and neither did IBM. A PR representative for IBM called afterwards asking us not to use the interview – unique in our experience of interviewing numerous, senior, corporate representatives about controversial subjects for The Corporation. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | As a filmmaker, I was seeking the strongest, most coherent material. So I offered to drop Mr. Wladawsky-Berger's interview if IBM allowed us, as we initially requested, to speak with IBM's CEO, or to talk to a representative who could more knowledgeably refute or explain the record of IBM’s relationship with Nazi Germany. IBM refused. We used Mr. Wladawsky-Berger's interview because IBM allowed no one else to tell its side of the | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | story. I believe IBM and not the filmmakers let Mr. Wladawsky-Berger down. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | Mr. Wladawsky-Berger draws the conclusion that the filmmakers "clearly cared nothing about" the subjects of "medical research, the environment and education" because his comments on them were not used. If he watched the whole film, beyond the part featuring him, he would see others address those subjects. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | We were very interested in Mr. Wladawsky-Berger’s responses to all our questions, which were carefully researched and prepared. We did not waste his and our time with an hour-long show knowing in advance which of his answers we would ultimately use. | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | We worked on the film for six years and interviewed over seventy people for times ranging from thirty-seven minutes to over four hours. Thirty interviews were discarded completely. We asked many interviewees the same questions about corporate responsibility. The most articulate, relevant, revealing, explicit, dynamic, illustrative, incisive answers, both supporting and criticizing corporations, made it into the film. We had no one | Jun 05 19:01 |
schestowitz_TR2 | other than Mr. Wladawsky-Berger to speak for IBM. | Jun 05 19:02 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Now Musk says nobody is being fired and they're hiring MOAR people at Tesla. | Jun 05 19:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | Incidentally, we did not say that CBC offered any funding or broadcast for The Corporation. Five other reputable Canadian broadcasters supported the project, four of them educational and one religious, as well as Canadian federal and provincial government agencies. | Jun 05 19:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | Despite my original reaction to the interview, in the edited film I found Mr. Wladawsky-Berger helpful in illuminating aspects of the moral morass that surrounds the historical actions of a publicly-traded business corporation. I remain grateful for his participation and am disappointed at his response and allegations. | Jun 05 19:02 |

schestowitz_TR2 | od corporate soul was never interested enough in the history of his company to get to the bottom of this and IBM's behavior in this context is unsurprising.

DaemonFC | The national Republican Party needs a reboot. Even Ronald Reagan was able to do a bipartisan compromise on Immigration and was at least willing to work out an arrangement where he didn't just break the law and dare anyone to stop him or start bashing them. Many people got a path to a Green Card or citizenship under Reagan. | Jun 05 19:21 |
matey | i dont claim to have anything on him. "probably both" was an openly cynical generalisation | Jun 05 19:21 |
matey | he was probably wealthy | Jun 05 19:21 |
matey | and probably connected to something nasty | Jun 05 19:21 |
matey | but nothing im aware of specifically | Jun 05 19:21 |

matey | IBM was evil from the start <- i dont have data on that either | Jun 05 19:22 |

DaemonFC | It's companies like IBM and Microsoft and Apple who don't care about "America's problems". | Jun 05 19:23 |
DaemonFC | America has a huge problem. They aren't paying their taxes and college tuition is sky high and not guaranteed to lead to any results. | Jun 05 19:23 |
DaemonFC | But H1-B visas are leaving too many Americans unemployed and getting angrier about it when you combine the college troubles. | Jun 05 19:24 |
DaemonFC | Because they're not STUPID. They see that nobody helps them get an education because it's easier to open the floodgates and let Chinese and Indian immigrants who already have a degree into the country . | Jun 05 19:24 |
DaemonFC | Nobody's worried about them. Carlin said "A country that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago.". | Jun 05 19:25 |
DaemonFC | And nothing has happened since then except another 14 years of stagflation. | Jun 05 19:25 |
DaemonFC | As a matter of policy, I just refuse to go see any "foreign" doctors. And it's because I've noticed three things. 1. The same thing is going on there. 2. They have the bedside manner of a tarantula. 3. They will refuse to give you medical treatment, and if they do it's more likely to be incompetent treatment and they will not listen to your concerns. 4. There is a communications barrier. | Jun 05 19:27 |
DaemonFC | Well, I said three things. | Jun 05 19:27 |
DaemonFC | I thought of one more (communications barrier) while I was typing. | Jun 05 19:27 |
DaemonFC | I mean, like, you go there because your blood pressure is through the roof and the damned doctor is basically "Not my circus, not my monkeys! Try eating less salt!" and then that doesn't help and your food tastes like shit, and oh here's the bill. | Jun 05 19:28 |
DaemonFC | And so that was the moment I made the decision "Take a real good look at faces and names next time." and you know what? I got medicine. | Jun 05 19:29 |
DaemonFC | This isn't even the first time something like this has happened. My aunt, who was a nurse for over 35 years, had a Masters Degree in nursing, complained day in and day out about foreign doctors coming in and botching everything and letting the nurses sort it out. | Jun 05 19:30 |
DaemonFC | She unloaded about that after I complained about my psychiatrist not listening to me. | Jun 05 19:30 |
DaemonFC | I can't imagine that you're getting good tech workers with these H1-Bs, and you know, the reason I say that is because I've overheard people who are in charge of reviewing that "cheap" code that came in from India and China and they complain it's more work to fix it than it is to write it in the first place. | Jun 05 19:31 |
DaemonFC | But to some bean counter, it seems like a savings. | Jun 05 19:31 |
DaemonFC | But you can't say something like that outside of a pseudonym or some Garrett out there will hunt you down like a dog and try to cancel you I'm sure. | Jun 05 19:32 |
