DaemonFC[m]I'm kind of surprised that Winamp shipped an obviously broken MP3 decoder for several versions.Jun 06 01:42
oiaohmDaemonFC[m]: some of that was patents.Jun 06 01:43

oiaohmYes standard required you to have all the mp3 patents.Jun 06 01:47
oiaohmIts like how freetype hinting historic was horrible.Jun 06 01:47

schestowitz#torvalds is being picked on by a particular kind of troll that’s a combination of “concern troll” and “victim card troll”. They provoke him, then they receive a rude response, claim to be “offended” (victim) and “concerned” (about the leader). Oust the trolls, don’t feed them.Jun 06 02:11

DaemonFC[m]That's what most of Trump's supporters do too. Except that, more often, they say something so outrageously stupid that their fellow fart sniffing friends and family members get together to inhale deeply of their crude attempt at a Facebook post.Jun 06 02:20
DaemonFC[m]Lots of people end up being where they shouldn't be. My mom is a nurse, and she believes that if you grow your hair about yay big by yay long that you can cast evil spirits out of people.Jun 06 02:20
DaemonFC[m]Also, occasionally taking swigs of a $100 silver solution found on Amazon.Jun 06 02:21
DaemonFC[m]You shouldn't trust someone because they have a diploma.Jun 06 02:21
DaemonFC[m]All that means in many cases is that they're good enough at rote memorization to pass a test, not that they have any actual problem solving skills or abstract thinking ability.Jun 06 02:22
DaemonFC[m]You wouldn't believe the amount of the economy is just functionless dead weight that has managed to convince its host that it is useful.Jun 06 02:24
DaemonFC[m]The most obscenely overpaid people are also some of the most counterproductive. I don't think anyone argues that the CEO of Penneys deserved a $6 million bonus days ahead of the bankruptcy filing for ruining their business model by driving away a very fragile customer base that was averse to change.Jun 06 02:24
kingoffrancemove fast and break things!Jun 06 02:25
kingoffrancewe have an economy ran by limp bizkit :)Jun 06 02:25
kingoffrancebreak it!Jun 06 02:25
DaemonFC[m] He had a very impressive resume that said Apple on it, so they brought him on. Then that was the last mistake they ever made.Jun 06 02:26
DaemonFC[m]JC Penneys is not a tech company, and while it did make sense to adopt new technologies to try to reach a broader customer base, they changed their format too much and too fast, and they foisted changes on a bunch of elderly customers who didn't adapt well.Jun 06 02:27
DaemonFC[m]The reason why a lot of traditional retail is failing is because people in their 30s and 40s are smarter shoppers than their parents. Many are actually much more frugal and generally try to get value out of what they buy.Jun 06 02:29
DaemonFC[m]So, you know, the bankruptcy lawyer was asking me if I had any expensive clothing.Jun 06 02:29
DaemonFC[m]I said, "Well, I did pay $35 for a pair of jeans a couple years ago at the grocery store.".Jun 06 02:29
DaemonFC[m]She said a good sense of humor.Jun 06 02:30
DaemonFC[m]I'm filing bankruptcy, and unlike the goddamned baby boomers, I'm not going in there with boats and 90" Quad HD televisions.Jun 06 02:30
DaemonFC[m]It was a once in a lifetime perfect storm of disaster and I really do need the court's help.Jun 06 02:31
DaemonFC[m]That's what bankruptcy law is intended for. You didn't mean to get in trouble with your debts by buying stupid shit and then realizing that you can't afford to live like you make 10x more than your salary. But they let a lot of that slide too.Jun 06 02:32
DaemonFC[m]My in-laws are going to have to file at some point and it'll be a Chapter 13 because the law is far less forgiving of people who make a quarter million a year and still end up in deep debt.Jun 06 02:33
schestowitzchapter 13?Jun 06 02:42
schestowitzthey really need better names for chaptersJun 06 02:43
schestowitznumbers don't mean muchJun 06 02:43
schestowitzso you hire a gang of lawyersJun 06 02:43
schestowitzwho walk into the courtroom for youJun 06 02:43
schestowitzand name-drop numbersJun 06 02:43
schestowitzsections and subsectionsJun 06 02:43
schestowitzand you're like... "whooooever..."Jun 06 02:44
schestowitzbecause they don't even say anything about the substance of these chaptersJun 06 02:44
schestowitzjust memorising a bunch of "laws"Jun 06 02:44
schestowitzwhich they craftedJun 06 02:44
schestowitzand then the judge or opposing side in court drops a number on youJun 06 02:44
schestowitzso you''re like, "whhhhaaa :-o"Jun 06 02:44
schestowitzOh, yeah... chapter 12.3aJun 06 02:45
schestowitzyes, yeah...Jun 06 02:45
schestowitzI knowJun 06 02:45
schestowitzTHAT chapterJun 06 02:45
schestowitzchapterJun 06 02:45
schestowitzso you end up with cryptic shitJun 06 02:45
schestowitzlike "chapter 11"Jun 06 02:45
schestowitzbetter known as ... oh wait... I'm broke and cannot repayJun 06 02:45
schestowitzso when you say chapter 13 it means nothing to meJun 06 02:45
schestowitzand if I looked up chapter 13 online I might get chapter 13 of some booksJun 06 02:45
schestowitzI too wrote some chapter 13s... of some reportsJun 06 02:46
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: bottom line is, I think only the "remote-working" [sic] lawyers will benefit from all these filingsJun 06 02:46
schestowitzside story: 7 years ago some lazy lawyer asked me to do all the work for him, then hand it over to him to attach a ribbon and signJun 06 02:47
schestowitzso to 'ribbon' the darn thing he charged a lot, but not as much as other lawyersJun 06 02:47
schestowitzbut you end up with this 'lawyer class' of ribboners[sic]Jun 06 02:47
schestowitzand they do not do anything of sunstanceJun 06 02:48
schestowitzlike "certified" translations of languages they barely even understandJun 06 02:48
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: There's a 7, 11, 12, and 13.Jun 06 02:49
DaemonFC[m]Business can file 7, 11, and sometimes 12.Jun 06 02:49
DaemonFC[m]Individuals can file 7, sometimes 12, and 13.Jun 06 02:50
DaemonFC[m]A 7 is a liquidation. All the debt goes away after any non-exempt property is taken to pay creditors what's available from a bankruptcy estate.Jun 06 02:50
schestowitzstill says little with just those numbersJun 06 02:51
DaemonFC[m]11 is a business reorganization, and a 13 is an individual reorganization.Jun 06 02:51
schestowitzyou could come up with one-word names for eachJun 06 02:51
schestowitzimagine books being referred to by chapters alone while they're still being shuffled aroundJun 06 02:51
DaemonFC[m]So if you make too much  or want to keep some property that you can't re-affirm in a 7, you file a 13.Jun 06 02:51
schestowitzwhy talk in numbers?Jun 06 02:51
DaemonFC[m]The Trustee sets up a repayment plan for 3-5 years with interest and whatever's left goes away.Jun 06 02:51
schestowitz[02:50] <DaemonFC[m]> Individuals can file 7, sometimes 12, and 13.Jun 06 02:51
schestowitzsays nothing about the differencesJun 06 02:52
schestowitzand I'm sure those laws moreover change over time, a lotJun 06 02:52
DaemonFC[m]Chapter 12 is for family farmers and fishermen.Jun 06 02:52
DaemonFC[m]So there actually haven't been any Chapter 12 filings in IL-ND so far this year.Jun 06 02:52
schestowitznd is northern district?Jun 06 02:53
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: Well, Chapter 7 basically worked the same way throughout many decades until the Republicans changed it in 2005.Jun 06 02:53
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, Northern part of the state. Mostly Chicago and the surrounding area.Jun 06 02:53
schestowitzhow many fisherman and farmers are there in that cold area?Jun 06 02:53
schestowitzfishing what? lake mich?Jun 06 02:53
DaemonFC[m]Not too many farms in Chicago.Jun 06 02:53
DaemonFC[m]I suppose that you could claim that you were a family of fishermen that mostly fished in the lake.Jun 06 02:54
schestowitzOhio calls it a farm when it packs millions of pigs pissing on each other until they're chopped to bitsJun 06 02:54
DaemonFC[m]You could also file a 12 in this court if you moved here from somewhere else and live here for at least 6 months before you file.Jun 06 02:54
schestowitzso much for farmingJun 06 02:54
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: I'd much rather file in Indiana, honestly.Jun 06 02:55
schestowitzI remember when the word means growing plants and plowing fields... now it's all fertilisers and machinesJun 06 02:55
DaemonFC[m]Your state can exempt more than federal law allows for and the Trustee has to respect that.Jun 06 02:55
DaemonFC[m]In Kentucky there's a $10,000 wildcard for anything you want to apply it for, but in Illinois it's only $4,000.Jun 06 02:55
DaemonFC[m]My lawyer said I can use my bank accounts but don't go much about $3,000 or I might have some non exempt property.Jun 06 02:56

schestowitzthey're not even farms Jun 06 03:00
schestowitzthey're factoriesJun 06 03:00
schestowitzthey misuse the word "farm"Jun 06 03:00
schestowitzand the pictures/labels on their "PRODUCE" mislead, tooJun 06 03:00
schestowitz"A few years back, my doctor put in some nasty spyware to catch drug  problems and nailed one of the xxxxx who had become an addict and increasingly erratic.  They came to get her at work and wore side arms to do it.  At that point, I realized that the xxxxx had the place in their sites and everything was monitored in ways the Windows monkey IT people probably don't know about and certainly can't talk about.  The recent ransomware Jun 06 03:01
schestowitzattack brought both the xxxxxxx and xxxxxxxxx law enforcement.  I imagine that grew my xxxxxxxx file a few pages.  My xxxxxx is already a Microsoft gold star site, with xxxxxx (that nasty Microsoft publishing group?) awards on the wall in administration."  Jun 06 03:01
schestowitz(anon source)Jun 06 03:01
DaemonFC[m]What's that all about?Jun 06 03:11
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: It's not worth considering offers in settlement with your creditors if you're really in deep shit.Jun 06 03:18
DaemonFC[m]Some offered to settle with me for less, but that would have only taken care of part of the problem and the government taxes you on the "canceled" part of the debt as if it were income.Jun 06 03:18
DaemonFC[m]If debt is discharged in bankruptcy, there's no 1099-C to file with the IRS so no taxes are owed on thaat.Jun 06 03:19
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: That's why I didn't like the idea of that Rolling Jubilee thing.Jun 06 03:22
DaemonFC[m]They'd buy up crap hospital bills and cancel them and then someone would get a 1099-C out of the blue, and the IRS also gets a copy.Jun 06 03:23
DaemonFC[m]So you can't not declare it at that point.Jun 06 03:23
DaemonFC[m]A canceled hospital bill might be worse than one that nobody ever forgave.Jun 06 03:23
DaemonFC[m]After 5 years in Illinois, if they haven't sued you already it's too late, and after 6 years it falls off your credit report.Jun 06 03:24
DaemonFC[m]The debt is out there somewhere, but unless they can trick you into reaffirming it, you're in the clear.Jun 06 03:24
DaemonFC[m]So if it was a hospital bill for $30,000 and those Strike Debt people buy it and cancel it, then you might owe the IRS up to $5,000.Jun 06 03:25
DaemonFC[m]Even though it was too old for anyone to take action on.Jun 06 03:25

DaemonFC[m]MinceRwill be delighted when systemd .NET comes out. After all, it makes more sense to write it in a Managed Language while it's taking over things the kernel could already do and implementing them in some broken half-baked way that Linus would have vetoed if he had control over it.

DaemonFC[m]It seems that Linus can keep it out of the kernel but then it just reappears somewhere else.Jun 06 18:25
