●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Thursday, June 05, 2025 ●● ● Jun 05 [00:08] IsambardPrince MinceR, I was talking about those cheapo online glasses with someone at Walmart. [00:09] IsambardPrince How they were so cheap you'd accidentally break the frames or tear into the lenses and you ended up buying more pairs of eyeglasses in the end. [00:09] IsambardPrince She said she was trying to fix something on one of hers with a heat gun and it ended up just absolutely melting the entire right ha;f of the left lens. [00:11] IsambardPrince I don't like wearing glasses, but I like not being able to make out any words or fine detail on things at more than 10 or 20 feet a lot less. [00:20] IsambardPrince MinceR, That scene in Breaking Bad where Walt is hiding from the law and the guy brings him a bag of eyeglasses and says "One of these should be close." made me laugh. [00:20] IsambardPrince There's like, over 500 million possible combinations. [00:21] IsambardPrince Even with an entire bag it's unlikely there would be a pair that worked well enough. [00:21] IsambardPrince Over 500 million combinations, and that's without considering there's also a PD value. [00:22] IsambardPrince PD is used to calculate where your eye should be relative to the "center" of the lens, so if you don't also have the PD value, you can't make the lens work right because it won't be centered for that person's eyes. [00:24] IsambardPrince How bad an incorrect PD value is depends on how far off it is from the actual value. If it's 1 mm off either way, it's not the end of the world, but 2 or more can start causing significant eye strain. [00:25] IsambardPrince So even if the guy landed on Walt's prescription somehow, if the PD value is wrong, Walt would start having eye strain, maybe even migraine headaches, blurred or double vision, etc. [00:26] IsambardPrince Then there's the frame size problem. Everyone has a different size head. To account for that, a typical eyeglass store will have a minimum of about 600-700 frame options for people of all ages (and men vs women's frames). [00:28] IsambardPrince It's actually really hard to get a good pair of eyeglasses. The odds that my specific pair of eyeglasses work for anyone else on the planet? There might be 20-30 other people on the planet that are an exact match for every measurement. [00:28] IsambardPrince There may not even be one other person in the US that could use these. [00:32] MinceR strange, shops like to offer non-prescription glasses for farsighted people [00:45] IsambardPrince I'm nearsighted. [00:46] IsambardPrince If you're talking about readers, then unless they're prescription readers they're not going to do you much good outside of maybe blowing up the words you're looking at in a book. [00:50] MinceR :> [00:53] MinceR and the PD value business doesn't apply to farsighted people? [00:54] IsambardPrince Mandy came out and looked at me. [00:55] *includeals has quit (Quit: ZNC - https://znc.in) [00:55] IsambardPrince He heard mugs and dishes banging around in the cabinet. [00:55] IsambardPrince I had my head in there shouting "God damn it! FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU!!!!" [00:55] IsambardPrince I didn't know he came out of the bedroom. [00:55] IsambardPrince I said, "Sorry, I was killing one of the neighbor's cockroaches."

THERE ARE MORE OF YOU!?" *cries* ● Jun 05 [01:02] IsambardPrince MinceR, I'm not farsighted. It's really quite annoying to be nearsighted. [01:05] MinceR neither am i, but there are no such glasses for me [01:05] MinceR though i wouldn't want any even if there were [01:36] IsambardPrince Well, the landlord never turned the water off. [01:38] IsambardPrince When he says the water will be off between 5 PM and 7 PM it can mean a number of things. 1. It will be off between 5-7. 2. The repair man will come out two hours early while you're trying to scramble and shower, shave, wash the dishes, fill the cat bowl, fill the Brita systems, and get a bucket filled so you can flush the toilet a few times. 3. It will get turned off some other day, with no warning. 4. He'll take a trip to India for [01:38] IsambardPrince the month and ignore that you have no water, and not turn it back on until you call the city, at which point he'll get on Zoom with a Mexican because it's an emergency to him now.

[01:58] Sompi What happens when the rust modules in older Linux versions break because the rust compiler stops supporting the code in them? Will it become impossible to build those old versions of the kernel? ● Jun 05 [02:02] MinceR probably never [02:03] MinceR specifications are not "modern" [02:03] MinceR like other forms of documentation [02:03] Sompi it really seems that they aren't even aiming at creating a proper standard for the language [02:04] Sompi why Linus even allows this [02:04] IsambardPrince Anyone who writes things in Rust today will be "tending to that" indefinitely, until they give up or die. [02:04] IsambardPrince Then it won't compile within months. [02:04] Sompi exactly [02:05] MinceR i don't think Linus has much freedom to decide anything about Linux anymore [02:05] Sompi there are some Reddit discussion about rust's standardization and somehow it seems to be difficult for rustaceans to discuss it [02:05] Sompi They don't want a standard [02:06] MinceR move fast and break things [02:06] Sompi The lack of standard means that their cult has a full control over everything that is written in rust [02:06] cmb It came from a web company. The implementation is a "living standard". [02:06] Sompi They can break anything and make old open source programs stop working in an instant [02:07] Sompi cmb: Web standards also originally were real standards. That ended when HTML5 became a thing [02:07] cmb Sompi: Yes I know. [02:07] Sompi Before HTML5 you could assume that if you wrote a web page, it could be read on all browsers into the foreseeable future [02:08] cmb And Mozilla was one of the originators of WHATWG, the browser cartel that brought us "living standards." [02:09] IsambardPrince It's much more important to have pronoun badges for Xe/Xim/Xer than it is to have a language where code compiles correctly. [02:09] Sompi Living standard maybe fine, if you know when to freeze it and start a new iteration [02:10] Sompi And the old thing becomes a real standard [02:10] Sompi And, in case of web standards, if you don't deprecate anything while the standard is "living" [02:12] Sompi But both Chrome and Firefox are already dropping support for things [02:13] Sompi Those rustaceans themselves always say that "you can always use an old version of the kernel" when their changes break compatibility with old or rare hardware [02:14] Sompi But can you, really? If something changes in the rust language, how can you (cross-)compile the old kernel anymore? [02:15] MinceR 05 030908 < IsambardPrince> It's much more important to have pronoun badges for Xe/Xim/Xer than it is to have a language where code compiles correctly. [02:15] MinceR dunno, i've seen ruscists involve themselves in rust also [02:17] Sompi Then the kernel essentially becomes at least partially incompatible with modern userland [02:17] Sompi And this again leads to a corporate-friendly technological monoculture [02:18] Sompi Somehow the rust people don't seem to care [02:19] Sompi Or if they do, all they care is that the control is in the hands of the ideologically pure [02:19] IsambardPrince https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/04/politics/trump-travel-ban-proclamation [02:19] TR Bot Trump signs proclamation to ban travel from 12 countries, partial restriction from 7 | CNN Politics [02:19] Sompi And that's where not having a standard is important [02:21] cmb You also need llvm to build the kernel right?

[22:49] IsambardPrince Like last time. [22:49] IsambardPrince Not as bad as last time. [22:50] IsambardPrince I'm guessing the daily dose of Valtrex is keeping a lid on this. The Shingles virus keeps getting reactivated after COVID. [22:50] IsambardPrince It's like one of those monsters in Doom, that one that runs around bringing the stuff you already killed back to life.

[22:52] IsambardPrince He gave me a really filthy one from like the late 90s/early 2000s. [22:53] IsambardPrince I ended up having to take the filter screen out and blast it with the car washer kit I've got. Still dirty, so I took Dawn and hot water and soaked it and scrubbed it out with a toothbrush until it was clean. [22:53] IsambardPrince Then I had to take an old credit card and scrape all the caked on dirt from the fins out while I had the vacuum nozzle going to catch all the crap that was falling out. [22:54] IsambardPrince I put one of my big HEPA air purifiers over there next to it and let it run for a while until it was done spitting out dirt. :P [22:56] IsambardPrince The Post Office just sent me an email that looks racist. [22:57] IsambardPrince It says "Secure your dog. Keep deliveries on track." and it shows a white woman with a big dog running and the leash is away from her hand, and the dog is running towards a black mailman with a cornrow haircut.
