[09:52] schestowitz-TR GitLab is a GitLab.com or your own instance [09:53] SomeH4x0r the latter, I corrected later [09:53] schestowitz-TR that instance would censor you even if it did not use GitLab [09:53] anontor I guess im trying to figure out what this has to do with tor? :) [09:53] schestowitz-TR or moved away to another git front end [09:53] SomeH4x0r but switching to JS-dependent GitLab instance is also evil [09:53] schestowitz-TR maybe not evil [09:53] schestowitz-TR there are more evil things than this [09:53] anontor I have js turned on [09:54] schestowitz-TR afaik, the JS in GitLab is free software [09:54] schestowitz-TR it's restricting access [09:54] schestowitz-TR but it's locally hosted and auditable [09:54] anontor you can use i2p if you don't like tor. In some ways i2p hidden service maybe better [09:54] SomeH4x0r with some exceptions, I don't like communities and people [09:54] schestowitz-TR we must be exceptional then? [09:55] SomeH4x0r seems to be so, but there are still things I dislike [09:55] schestowitz-TR animals that aren't humans tend to be more reliable than people. esp. pets [09:55] anontor is tor on the same machine has this server? [09:55] anontor as [09:55] schestowitz-TR pets can be very loyal, then know the palm that feeds them [09:56] SomeH4x0r (on I2P) like implementing domain name registration even earlier than Tor, and most people (afaik) rely on these registered names [09:56] schestowitz-TR anon: we don't do tor [09:56] schestowitz-TR we thought about adding tor to gemini [09:56] schestowitz-TR onion address [09:56] anontor well do you do i2p :) [09:57] SomeH4x0r schestowitz-TR: I hate ergo ircd for trying to break standards/introducing non-standard user-experience breaking things or moving IRC towards the state of the web. [09:57] SomeH4x0r ergo/oragono [09:57] SomeH4x0r Let's Encrypt certificate should be removed [09:58] SomeH4x0r as for the pets, I don't trust them either. It feels like kind of socializing, and I'm not happy with socializing irl. [09:59] anontor in terms of tor and i2p being big. If a hidden service is not big and it is open (unlike a normal vpn) then it is more likely to get a successful sybil attack [09:59] anontor bigger is usually better with services like tor or i2p ● Jan 07 [10:00] SomeH4x0r I prefer social distancing like online, so I can disconnect if something bad happens, without risk of further consequences. [10:00] SomeH4x0r maybe more than social distancing, also that the other party doesn't know where I live and/or can't reach me [10:08] schestowitz-TR SomeH4x0r: some fair points.. [10:08] schestowitz-TR some, not all [10:10] SomeH4x0r yes, and I can't be happy in a society, regardless of where it is [10:10] SomeH4x0r (on the Internet/irl) [10:10] schestowitz-TR that is a little sad [10:11] schestowitz-TR I'm introvert [10:11] schestowitz-TR but you are on a whole enhanced level of it [10:12] schestowitz-TR You depend on a lot of people [10:12] schestowitz-TR in wintry Russia, for instance, people cannot easily grow their own foods [10:12] SomeH4x0r I don't know if I will be able to live after my parents die [10:12] schestowitz-TR there is usually a way [10:12] schestowitz-TR like government aid [10:13] schestowitz-TR but on an emotional level, that's another issue [10:13] SomeH4x0r if there is aid, you need to ask for it [10:13] SomeH4x0r irl, I'm almost not into socializing at all [10:14] schestowitz-TR you can make a temporary compomise [10:14] schestowitz-TR if all your need is food and medicine [10:14] SomeH4x0r issues even with parents, I prefer to talk as less as less possible, and asking someone else is difficult [10:15] schestowitz-TR many people have such issues [10:15] schestowitz-TR you are not alone [10:15] SomeH4x0r I know [10:27] TR News NEWS #Techdirt #Sega #Japan Parody Post About Sega Suing Its Fans Perfectly Lampoons #Nintendo https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20220105/11191048234/parody-post-about-sega-suing-fans-perfectly-lampoons-nintendo.shtml [10:27] Alternative link Cloudflare: techdirt.com | Alternative: https://web.archive.org/web/https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20220105/11191048234/parody-post-about-sega-suing-fans-perfectly-lampoons-nintendo.shtml [10:27] TR Bot Post About Sega Suing Its Fans Perfectly Lampoons Nintendo | Techdirt [10:27] TR News NEWS #Techdirt #Copyright #Copyrights Top Disney Lawyer To Become Top Copyright Office Lawyer, Because Who Cares About The Public Interest? https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20220105/16083648236/top-disney-lawyer-to-become-top-copyright-office-lawyer-because-who-cares-about-public-interest.shtml [10:27] Alternative link Cloudflare: techdirt.com | Alternative: https://web.archive.org/web/https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20220105/16083648236/top-disney-lawyer-to-become-top-copyright-office-lawyer-because-who-cares-about-public-interest.shtml [10:27] TR Bot Disney Lawyer To Become Top Copyright Office Lawyer, Because Who Cares About The Public Interest? | Techdirt [10:53] Techrights-sec Yes, in regards to liability laws, what role should insurance play in regards [10:53] Techrights-sec to damage caused by AI algorithms in mass market products?

[19:01] DaemonFC You can replace rotors without replacing the pads, but you usually shouldn't if the pads have any sort of significant wear. [19:02] DaemonFC Like, if the pads are less than 15% worn and you're doing the job yourself or something, why do it? [19:02] DaemonFC But if the pads are really worn or look like they have irregular wear from the rotors, do them both at the same time. [19:03] DaemonFC I measured the pads on my back axle the other day and they're fine. [19:03] DaemonFC They probably have 3+ years left. [19:04] DaemonFC I don't go through brake pads very fast and I always do better than EPA fuel mileage averages. [19:04] DaemonFC Because I keep my car tuned up and I don't run up on stoplights and then stand up on the brake pedal like my parents do. [19:05] DaemonFC Very important in light of Brandon Gas. [19:05] DaemonFC GasBuddy says expect $4+ per gallon in a few months. [19:05] DaemonFC It's extremely cheap to replace filters and spark plugs vs. the extra fuel.

[19:07] DaemonFC But few people do it because the car will go ahead and run, it just starts burning extra fuel. [19:07] DaemonFC Eventually, the check engine light can come on if they're really worn or fouled, but some computers don't light anything up until a reading deviates by 25% from where it should be! [19:08] DaemonFC If you're 15-20% off, then you could be effectively paying another $1 per gallon of gas. [19:09] DaemonFC I think these computers should be a lot more sensitive personally. [19:09] DaemonFC Many people still ignore it even if the light's on, but they won't pass their emissions if they're in an area covered by the Clean Air Act, and then they have to take it to someone and have it fixed. [19:10] DaemonFC Also, since MetroMile knows anything the car's computer would tell a diagnostic scanner, it knows if you're driving a car that has braking issues! [19:10] DaemonFC So if you leave the ABS light on, Metromile will know about that. [19:11] DaemonFC Normally, an insurance company has no idea what condition your car is in. [19:11] DaemonFC So many of them won't hear about it if you had been driving with brake warning lights. [19:12] DaemonFC But these OBD-II devices can rat you out, and then they can go look at your claim and say "Well, you were driving with a brake problem that the computer was warning you about for 3 months before the accident happened! We're not paying the claim. Have fun with the lawsuit." [19:13] DaemonFC Some brake problems (not ABS related) can go on indefinitely and not leave you with no braking power.

You can still stop, but the distance increases. [19:13] DaemonFC They can say that was a factor if you rear-end someone. [19:13] DaemonFC YOu should be getting it fixed anyway though, so they'd be well within their rights to deny the claim. [19:14] DaemonFC People like to scream and curse at the warning lights themselves. [19:14] DaemonFC But if you really think about it, they're saving lives and money. [19:15] DaemonFC Maybe 30 years ago on a car without ABS especially, you wouldn't get any kind of warning about things like a wheel bearing, unless it started howling at you. [19:15] DaemonFC But these sensors are so twitchy that they detect upcoming failures before that happens, usually. [19:16] DaemonFC Because what will happen is that three speed sensors will say "Oh, the car's going 30 miles an hour. But then the ABS modulator starts getting a different/inconsistent reading from 1 of them, and it goes "Oh, well, ABS light on SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM!". [19:17] DaemonFC Mom was like "Oh, that car was doing that all the time.". [19:17] DaemonFC I said, "Yeah, I remember, and Dave went out and got an ABS modulator from a junk yard real cheap and shoved it in without calibrating it, and that one failed on me.". [19:18] DaemonFC "Then he told you it was a new one and ran off with a bunch of money." [19:18] DaemonFC (Her third husband.) [19:19] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I was looking at statistics on states by number of doctors per thousand residents. [19:19] DaemonFC Only like 4 states, I think had 4 doctors or more per 1,000 residents. [19:19] DaemonFC Illinois had 3. Indiana had less than 3. Most red states had less than 3. [19:19] DaemonFC People from Europe ended up commenting, because it compared that to Europe and most EU member states had 4 or more. [19:20] schestowitz lawyers?iirc one in 500 in us [19:20] DaemonFC But people started saying "Well, I'm in Switzerland and you can never get in with an Internist.:.

[19:23] DaemonFC There's cost push and demand pull inflation in the US. [19:24] DaemonFC Cost push being that they force doctors here to go through at least a year or two of useless crap to create scarcity and run up the meter. [19:24] DaemonFC So less doctors. [19:24] schestowitz-TR anyway, back to tech now [19:24] DaemonFC Then Obummercare put a bunch of poor people on insurance when they could have formerly paid cheap cash prices.
