| schestowitz__ | not that this surprises me | Mar 07 03:17 |
| schestowitz__ | RMS has not written about this in his site or GNU, either | Mar 07 03:17 |
| dyfet | I know Wilbur Marcia was creating one... | Mar 07 03:18 |
| dyfet | Feeling Dislexic ;0 Marcia Wilbur | Mar 07 03:18 |
| schestowitz__ | yeah | Mar 07 03:18 |
| schestowitz__ | opposite | Mar 07 03:18 |
| schestowitz__ | was gonna say | Mar 07 03:18 |
| schestowitz__ | WILBUR, Marcia | Mar 07 03:18 |
| schestowitz__ | the french style | Mar 07 03:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Looks like there's a need to regain community lead | Mar 07 03:19 |
| schestowitz__ | seeing that the web, Linux, some might even say FSF become more corporate | Mar 07 03:19 |
| schestowitz__ | systemd and all | Mar 07 03:19 |
| schestowitz__ | the web is becoming all "webapps" | Mar 07 03:19 |
| schestowitz__ | opaque and freedom-hostile | Mar 07 03:19 |
| schestowitz__ | we cannot rely on protocols like these, they're designed to trap us in | Mar 07 03:19 |
| dyfet | webapps? I just want the content generic and working with lynx, not an app with javascript... | Mar 07 03:20 |
| schestowitz__ | no JS= emptry page | Mar 07 03:20 |
| schestowitz__ | if you are lucky, they give you some text ;) | Mar 07 03:20 |
| schestowitz__ | "please enable JS" | Mar 07 03:20 |
| schestowitz__ | usually you're not even that lucky | Mar 07 03:20 |
| schestowitz__ | some parts of Red Hat's site are becoming like this | Mar 07 03:21 |
| dyfet | This is why I already love gemini | Mar 07 03:21 |
| schestowitz__ | "visit web page" = run our program | Mar 07 03:21 |
| schestowitz__ | the browsers are massive | Mar 07 03:21 |
| schestowitz__ | it's shocking, never mind source code, the binaries alone... vast | Mar 07 03:21 |
| schestowitz__ | I just want to read a news article, a few paragraphs of text, maybe an image | Mar 07 03:22 |
| dyfet | going back to gopher and adding tls and things like that...I just want to read a page, not run an obsfucated app with hidden things tracking me | Mar 07 03:22 |
| schestowitz__ | "click to allow cookies" | Mar 07 03:23 |
| schestowitz__ | in the EU you're told to click OK on things | Mar 07 03:23 |
| dyfet | The modern browser has become the mainframe terminal of the internet age, with all that was wrong for freedom with that... | Mar 07 03:23 |
| schestowitz__ | otherwise there's an overlay | Mar 07 03:23 |
| schestowitz__ | so they blackmail you into consenting to abuse | Mar 07 03:23 |
| schestowitz__ | I've just been looking into webproxies for gemini | Mar 07 03:24 |
| schestowitz__ | but they rely on big frameworks | Mar 07 03:24 |
| schestowitz__ | like 200MB (10,000+ files!) of Golang | Mar 07 03:24 |
| dyfet | sounds like a browser ;) | Mar 07 03:24 |

| schestowitz__ | this one if lighter if you already have php | Mar 07 03:25 |
| schestowitz__ | but it's alpha | Mar 07 03:25 |
| schestowitz__ | and seems rather simplistic, maybe dodgy | Mar 07 03:26 |

| schestowitz__ | it doesn't do much yet | Mar 07 03:26 |
| schestowitz__ | we need to prod for repos to include some browsers/clients | Mar 07 03:26 |
| schestowitz__ | I'm surprised not even one is included in popular distros | Mar 07 03:26 |
| schestowitz__ | only things like AUR and more hacker-friendly distros, for now... | Mar 07 03:26 |
| dyfet | Hmm...that sounds like an effort that should have been promoted by the fsf, rather than converting pages to webapps... | Mar 07 03:27 |
| schestowitz__ | I mentioned this in #fsf | Mar 07 03:31 |
| schestowitz__ | freenode | Mar 07 03:31 |
| schestowitz__ | they said I should email their sysadmins | Mar 07 03:31 |
| schestowitz__ | I can even help them, I have set several gemini capsules by now | Mar 07 03:31 |

| dyfet | I actually don't mind people making webapps if they want to make something that is actually an application, like a remote management system. But for information, for publishing, for a blog??? It is so much overhead and intermediation for other purposes. And there is no longer a "standard" definition of what a web page even is! It appearently is whatever is now defined by the current release of chrome rendering... | Mar 07 03:35 |
| dyfet | I do see subtle breakage in various sites, particularly google produced ones, using firefox, for example. | Mar 07 03:36 |
| techrights-bot | This is utter nonsense. #apple is in #nsa #prism (the CEO Tim Crook enlisted the company to assist mass #surveillance imperialisic operations), so this is privacy posing at best and likely won't be obeyed under the most important circumstances. https://www.maketecheasier.com/block-camera-microphone-location-access-safari-ios/ | Mar 07 03:36 |

| schestowitz__ | dyfet: yes, browsers are web | Mar 07 03:37 |
| schestowitz__ | web is browsers | Mar 07 03:37 |
| schestowitz__ | and increasingly "browsers"="chrom*" | Mar 07 03:37 |
| schestowitz__ | so the web just becomes "something for Google to render" | Mar 07 03:37 |
| dyfet | that is a huge problem | Mar 07 03:38 |

| schestowitz__ | rather than a consortium | Mar 07 03:38 |
| schestowitz__ | Firefox will die | Mar 07 03:38 |
| schestowitz__ | it's on a road to nowhere | Mar 07 03:38 |
| schestowitz__ | and it depends on Google money | Mar 07 03:38 |
| schestowitz__ | which means Google can just kill it when it gets tired of pretending there's competition | Mar 07 03:39 |
| schestowitz__ | and Mozilla whines to regulators | Mar 07 03:39 |
| schestowitz__ | to protect the Google payments | Mar 07 03:39 |

| schestowitz__ | yeag | Mar 07 03:40 |
| schestowitz__ | *yeah | Mar 07 03:40 |
| schestowitz__ | well, the web is going down the drain | Mar 07 03:40 |
| schestowitz__ | many people just haven't realised it yet | Mar 07 03:40 |
| schestowitz__ | the network is still there | Mar 07 03:40 |
| dyfet | from a publishing perspective, that is clearer. | Mar 07 03:41 |
| schestowitz__ | can build other things on top of it | Mar 07 03:41 |
| schestowitz__ | btw, firefox is slow on youtube | Mar 07 03:41 |
| schestowitz__ | mozilla had the 'nerve' to complain about slowness in other things like Google StreetView | Mar 07 03:41 |
| schestowitz__ | everything gets optimised for one browser of family of them | Mar 07 03:41 |
| schestowitz__ | *or family | Mar 07 03:41 |
| schestowitz__ | people will flock away from Firefox | Mar 07 03:42 |
| schestowitz__ | give them time | Mar 07 03:42 |
| schestowitz__ | it's slow and bad | Mar 07 03:42 |
| schestowitz__ | and the mozilla management is even worse | Mar 07 03:42 |
| schestowitz__ | sound bites and stuff, no substance | Mar 07 03:42 |
| schestowitz__ | no teeth | Mar 07 03:42 |
| dyfet | I worry about thunderbird, too | Mar 07 03:43 |
| schestowitz__ | yeah, but it can always be forked | Mar 07 03:43 |
| schestowitz__ | it's less to maintain | Mar 07 03:43 |
| schestowitz__ | it doesn't require gecko much | Mar 07 03:43 |
| dyfet | true, though google tried, it hadn't been able to kill imap | Mar 07 03:44 |
| schestowitz__ | its current steward already killed all the important extensions anyway | Mar 07 03:44 |
| schestowitz__ | google and GAFAM in general ruined email | Mar 07 03:44 |
| schestowitz__ | with all their whitelisting methods | Mar 07 03:44 |
| schestowitz__ | and their extensions | Mar 07 03:44 |
| schestowitz__ | I hardly send OUT mail anymore | Mar 07 03:44 |
| schestowitz__ | unless I can encrypt it | Mar 07 03:45 |
| schestowitz__ | too much passes through relays of spying firms | Mar 07 03:45 |

| dyfet | It seems a great place to outsource spam, though, like feeding chaff, give it nonsense. | Mar 07 03:47 |
| dyfet | I still do have my own mail server, but I can hardly use it because almost nobody can get email from me from it. | Mar 07 03:48 |
| techrights-bot | THERE. IS. NO. SUCH. THING. AS. FREE. EMAIL. SERVICE. If they tell you it is free, then it's free for limited time -- a grace period -- or it's not actually free because you pay some other way (that you may not be aware of, yet). | Mar 07 03:49 |
| schestowitz__ | dyfet: yes, as the protocol got monopolies | Mar 07 03:49 |
| schestowitz__ | and decommoditised | Mar 07 03:50 |
| dyfet | chokepoints, too | Mar 07 03:50 |
| schestowitz__ | the burden of proof is no on you to "prove" you're NOT a spammer | Mar 07 03:50 |

| schestowitz__ | whitelisting | Mar 07 03:50 |

| techrights-bot | Can I suggest that until further notice, e.g. #qt deciding to be #freesw again rather than #ProprietarySoftware for LTS and future releases, we should all abstain from Qt-fying applications with GUI front ends? | Mar 07 03:55 |
| dyfet | There is coppermine, which is an older fork of Qt on a gpl license | Mar 07 03:56 |
| dyfet | It also fixed the problems with moc | Mar 07 03:56 |

| schestowitz__ | greaaaat | Mar 07 03:59 |
| schestowitz__ | maybe they'll ban them one day for having a branch called 'master | Mar 07 04:00 |
| schestowitz__ | or some other BS | Mar 07 04:00 |
| Ariadne | i'm patiently waiting for forgefed to materialize | Mar 07 04:00 |
| dyfet | oic, they are on github... | Mar 07 04:00 |
| schestowitz__ | not a good sign | Mar 07 04:01 |
| schestowitz__ | it is not a mirror either | Mar 07 04:01 |
| Ariadne | i'm only active on IRC right now because my city in cities skylines covid-19 edition is going through another death cycle | Mar 07 04:01 |
| schestowitz__ | it's their main and apparently only repo base | Mar 07 04:01 |

| Ariadne | nobody wanted to buy in | Mar 07 04:02 |
| schestowitz__ | we need to reduce the concentration of power | Mar 07 04:02 |

| schestowitz__ | some projects do leave github | Mar 07 04:02 |
| schestowitz__ | rockylinux recently did | Mar 07 04:02 |
| Ariadne | yes, but my subordinates complained about sourcehut so :) | Mar 07 04:03 |
| dyfet | Yes, and there are other things out there. KDE runs their own gitlab now... | Mar 07 04:03 |
| schestowitz__ | we have our git repo on techrights.org | Mar 07 04:03 |
| schestowitz__ | gnome also | Mar 07 04:03 |
| Ariadne | maybe someday i will install gitlab and that will solve it | Mar 07 04:03 |
| schestowitz__ | and some outreachy students use that | Mar 07 04:03 |
| schestowitz__ | some cannot cope with anything other than the monopoly, even for bloging | Mar 07 04:04 |

| Ariadne | because using docker is against my religion | Mar 07 04:06 |
| schestowitz__ | you cannot fight monopolies by using their platfroms | Mar 07 04:07 |
| schestowitz__ | youtube, twitter, microsoft... | Mar 07 04:07 |
| schestowitz__ | they control you | Mar 07 04:07 |
| schestowitz__ | you don't leverage their platforms against them | Mar 07 04:07 |
| Ariadne | i'm not in this to fight monopolies, i'm in this to publish code and have fun | Mar 07 04:07 |
| schestowitz__ | not for long | Mar 07 04:07 |
| schestowitz__ | they run out of patients and rip your head off | Mar 07 04:07 |

| dyfet | I have come to really like alpine | Mar 07 04:07 |
| schestowitz__ | monopolies suck out all the fun | Mar 07 04:08 |
| schestowitz__ | like MSIE | Mar 07 04:08 |
| schestowitz__ | or people sending you OOXML files | Mar 07 04:08 |
| Ariadne | actually DHTML was pretty rad | Mar 07 04:08 |

| Ariadne | yeah EME sucks, but the rest of it allows for some really cool shit from an artist point of view | Mar 07 04:10 |
| schestowitz__ | but raises complexity | Mar 07 04:10 |
| MinceR | i valued the open web more than the artist point of view | Mar 07 04:10 |
| schestowitz__ | web should be for text first and foremost | Mar 07 04:10 |
| MinceR | and yeah, there's also an insane amount of complexity | Mar 07 04:10 |
| Ariadne | MinceR: i said rest of it | Mar 07 04:10 |
| schestowitz__ | svg and stuff should be separated | Mar 07 04:10 |
| Ariadne | man | Mar 07 04:10 |
| schestowitz__ | it's impossible to write a decent browser without basing it on google | Mar 07 04:10 |
| schestowitz__ | or maybe gecko | Mar 07 04:10 |
| Ariadne | y'all are missing out | Mar 07 04:10 |
| Ariadne | there is now WebXR | Mar 07 04:11 |
| Ariadne | and you can do 3D virtual worlds inside the browser | Mar 07 04:11 |

| MinceR | i could have done it with quake live, but i didn't want to | Mar 07 04:11 |

| schestowitz__ | it infected raspies already | Mar 07 04:12 |
| schestowitz__ | all this stuff is harming developers | Mar 07 04:12 |
| schestowitz__ | and it seems deliberate | Mar 07 04:12 |
| schestowitz__ | the goal is to kill off individual devs | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | while throwing "github" scraps at them | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | so we need alternative protocols | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | it can be pulled off | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | but they they'd unleash trolls at us | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | also at publishers | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | like wikileaks | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | not just at dev projects | Mar 07 04:13 |
| schestowitz__ | because wikileaks helped debunk media giants that lied | Mar 07 04:14 |
| Ariadne | at this point i'm just a pragmatic engineer | Mar 07 04:14 |
| Ariadne | if they want to make the browser the user-facing platform, fuck it whatever | Mar 07 04:14 |
| schestowitz__ | Ariadne: ok, some of us fight in the sidelines | Mar 07 04:14 |
| Ariadne | also it is not really that hard to write a base profile html5 renderer | Mar 07 04:14 |
| Ariadne | i could do it in a day | Mar 07 04:14 |
| schestowitz__ | reusing massive piles of code is easy | Mar 07 04:14 |
| schestowitz__ | but maintaining them is another | Mar 07 04:15 |
| Ariadne | i meant from scratch | Mar 07 04:15 |
| schestowitz__ | forking qt6 would be hard, maybe impossible now due to licence | Mar 07 04:15 |
| schestowitz__ | qt5 can still be forked | Mar 07 04:15 |
| Ariadne | qt6 is a bad deal yes | Mar 07 04:15 |
| Ariadne | i am unhappy about qt6 | Mar 07 04:15 |
| schestowitz__ | chrome is also closing down | Mar 07 04:15 |
| schestowitz__ | or locking down | Mar 07 04:15 |
| schestowitz__ | the word closed implies "open source" | Mar 07 04:15 |
| Ariadne | i ported audacious from gtk to qt to get away from that bullshit | Mar 07 04:15 |
| schestowitz__ | so all those happy pappy people who forked or took off chromium are facing a new reality | Mar 07 04:16 |
| Ariadne | well no | Mar 07 04:16 |
| Ariadne | the only thing google removed was support for their proprietary bullshit APIs | Mar 07 04:16 |
| schestowitz__ | google has killed off nntp | Mar 07 04:16 |
| schestowitz__ | but ISPs helped | Mar 07 04:16 |
| Ariadne | i personally consider that a feature | Mar 07 04:16 |
| schestowitz__ | with copyright cartels | Mar 07 04:16 |
| *CrystalMath has quit (Quit: Support Richard Stallman! | https://sterling-archermedes.github.io/) | Mar 07 04:17 | |
| Ariadne | bittorrent is a more efficient distribution method anyway | Mar 07 04:17 |
| schestowitz__ | they go after that, too | Mar 07 04:17 |
| schestowitz__ | ipfs has some advantages | Mar 07 04:17 |
| schestowitz__ | but it's alpha still | Mar 07 04:17 |
| schestowitz__ | 0.8 is out | Mar 07 04:17 |
| Ariadne | they'll go after websites listing ipfs pins too | Mar 07 04:17 |
| schestowitz__ | it's also a bw hog | Mar 07 04:17 |
| Ariadne | this particular covid-19 death cycle has lasted 2 years now in my cities skylines game | Mar 07 04:18 |
| Ariadne | maybe i made this mod too aggressive | Mar 07 04:18 |
| schestowitz__ | cities skyline now has pendemics in it? | Mar 07 04:19 |
| Ariadne | i made a pandemic mod | Mar 07 04:19 |
| schestowitz__ | ah | Mar 07 04:19 |
| schestowitz__ | new pretext for things | Mar 07 04:19 |
| Ariadne | dusted off my C# knowledge to do it | Mar 07 04:19 |
| schestowitz__ | like shutting down accounts | Mar 07 04:19 |
| schestowitz__ | for "health" reasons | Mar 07 04:19 |
| schestowitz__ | C# is rotting away | Mar 07 04:19 |
| schestowitz__ | those who claim otherwise.. | Mar 07 04:19 |
| schestowitz__ | are basing their 'surveys' on MSFT data | Mar 07 04:20 |
| schestowitz__ | programming 'surveys'... nothing but github exists or counts | Mar 07 04:20 |
| Ariadne | i have no opinion on that other than that many people have requested a C# toolchain in alpine and cities skylines is written in C# so i have to use it anyway | Mar 07 04:20 |
| schestowitz__ | they'll also tell you typescript is growing | Mar 07 04:20 |
| MinceR | the redmond mafia is taking over new languages to compensate :> | Mar 07 04:20 |
| schestowitz__ | rustlang | Mar 07 04:20 |
| schestowitz__ | python | Mar 07 04:20 |
| MinceR | yup | Mar 07 04:20 |
| schestowitz__ | bribing guido van icaza | Mar 07 04:20 |
| schestowitz__ | google used to do that | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | perl founder | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | vint cerf | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | to attract geeks | Mar 07 04:21 |
| Ariadne | guido van rossum | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | bribe off famous devs | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | no, van icaza | Mar 07 04:21 |
| MinceR | i wonder how many times they've done this pattern of "if you won't use what we hacked up, we'll just take over what you use" | Mar 07 04:21 |
| MinceR | they did it with codeplex and shithub too | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | selling us out | Mar 07 04:21 |
| *vmg3 locate microsoft | wc -l | Mar 07 04:21 | |

| vmg3 | 172 | Mar 07 04:21 |
| MinceR | (idiot edgesploiter) | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | those bribes are expensive | Mar 07 04:21 |
| schestowitz__ | github loses money | Mar 07 04:22 |
| schestowitz__ | so does azure | Mar 07 04:22 |
| schestowitz__ | they hope they can pull something off | Mar 07 04:22 |
| schestowitz__ | meanwhile just layoffs and braindrain | Mar 07 04:22 |
| MinceR | well, here's hoping they run out of money before they smother the industry | Mar 07 04:22 |
| Ariadne | meanwhile on alpine i can run proprietary software in a jail without having to do any work, but gnu/linux distributions lack that capability | Mar 07 04:22 |
| schestowitz__ | http://techrights.org/2021/01/24/fleeing-github/ | Mar 07 04:22 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Microsoft: The Year After We Bought GitHub There Was a Significant Decline in Number of New Projects on GitHub | Techrights | Mar 07 04:22 | |
| MinceR | i thought alpine was gnu/linux | Mar 07 04:22 |
| Ariadne | nope | Mar 07 04:22 |
| schestowitz__ | they pretend otherwise :-) | Mar 07 04:22 |
| Ariadne | alpine is not gnu/linux | Mar 07 04:23 |
| schestowitz__ | userspace without some stuff | Mar 07 04:23 |
| schestowitz__ | but gnu optional still | Mar 07 04:23 |
| dyfet | alpine uses muscl libc and busybox | Mar 07 04:23 |
| schestowitz__ | Ariadne: uname -a | Mar 07 04:23 |
| schestowitz__ | linux | Mar 07 04:23 |
| MinceR | ic | Mar 07 04:23 |
| Ariadne | yes, i don't see a gnu/ there, do you? | Mar 07 04:23 |
| dyfet | so yes, technically, it can be correct to not use gnu/ | Mar 07 04:23 |
| schestowitz__ | it can | Mar 07 04:23 |
| dyfet | for alpine | Mar 07 04:23 |
| MinceR | ah, i could fetch an alpine stratum if i wanted :> | Mar 07 04:23 |
| schestowitz__ | what's the web site address for alpine? ;-) | Mar 07 04:23 |
| Ariadne | i mean, yes, if you install the gnu utilities, it will become kind of gnu/linux | Mar 07 04:24 |
| Ariadne | but lacking glibc is kind of a problem (: | Mar 07 04:24 |

| Ariadne | now the pandemic is plateauing finally | Mar 07 04:25 |
| schestowitz__ | Ubuntu may one day become Vista/WSL | Mar 07 04:25 |
| schestowitz__ | :-) | Mar 07 04:25 |
| dyfet | It is very small, can boot to ramdisk | Mar 07 04:25 |
| MinceR | systemd/NT | Mar 07 04:25 |
| schestowitz__ | this pandemic hardly kills anyone in >relative< terms | Mar 07 04:25 |
| MinceR | :> | Mar 07 04:25 |
| Ariadne | schestowitz__: i'm talking about the one in my game | Mar 07 04:25 |
| schestowitz__ | the wars of the banks and weapons company kill a lot more | Mar 07 04:25 |
| schestowitz__ | even pollution kills more | Mar 07 04:25 |
| schestowitz__ | Ariadne: I know | Mar 07 04:25 |
| schestowitz__ | but the pandemic clogs up hospitals | Mar 07 04:26 |
| Ariadne | i also made a mod that allows me to buy up to 25 tiles instead of the 9 cities skylines is traditionally capped at | Mar 07 04:26 |
| Ariadne | unfortunately the engine crashes if you try to do more than 25 tiles at once | Mar 07 04:26 |
| *schestowitz__ stopped playing computer games | Mar 07 04:26 | |
| Ariadne | what is the point of software freedom if not to enable your computer to be more fun? | Mar 07 04:27 |
| dyfet | I miss seeing xconq commonly packaged | Mar 07 04:27 |
| schestowitz__ | that's not implied from what I said... | Mar 07 04:27 |
| schestowitz__ | games are addictive | Mar 07 04:27 |
| schestowitz__ | I want to do other things | Mar 07 04:27 |
| MinceR | oxygen is addictive | Mar 07 04:28 |
| schestowitz__ | it is necessary | Mar 07 04:28 |
| schestowitz__ | same with food and other things | Mar 07 04:28 |
| Ariadne | i have fibromyalgia, someimes i have shit days and playing a game helps to pass the time | Mar 07 04:28 |
| *schestowitz__ looks up the word | Mar 07 04:28 | |
| dyfet | xconq was the whole reason to have X ;) | Mar 07 04:29 |

| schestowitz__ | they also say "open hardware" a lot | Mar 07 10:22 |
| kingoffrance | well that pdf also has 1947 quote ...i just dont see any official dept or similar with the name until recently | Mar 07 10:28 |
| kingoffrance | i guess they are pretty loose with language; like that paper says "public domain" -- just meaning things the public has access to | Mar 07 10:34 |
| techrights-bot | TIL that #apache2 won't be picking up #dns system-wide changes until a restart (of the Apache service). Reload is not enough. There go 20 minutes down the drain. :/ | Mar 07 10:36 |
| kingoffrance | https://www.theguardian.com/environment/earth-insight/2014/jun/19/open-source-revolution-conquer-one-percent-cia-spy (apologies if that is not a good source) just to show -- steele for example, title of book "open source everything" -- he for one is very much not limiting things to a particular field/etc. | Mar 07 10:36 |

| kingoffrance | which again i dont deny historic uses prior -- just modern use seems blurry IMO | Mar 07 10:37 |
| kingoffrance | at least in the u.s. | Mar 07 10:37 |
| schestowitz__ | OSINT is an old concept | Mar 07 10:37 |
| schestowitz__ | the funny thing is how they pretend it was 'pioneered' or 'coined' or 'invented' in 1998 | Mar 07 10:38 |
| schestowitz__ | also, their premise was, Free software is confusing or ambiguous or something | Mar 07 10:38 |
| schestowitz__ | clearly "open source" was no better and in fact a lot more ambiguous | Mar 07 10:38 |
| kingoffrance | ^^^ agree | Mar 07 10:38 |
| schestowitz__ | hence my mention of that article | Mar 07 10:38 |
| schestowitz__ | which someone sent to me | Mar 07 10:38 |
| schestowitz__ | a lot of people still think github is "open" | Mar 07 10:39 |
| schestowitz__ | because on the site itself there is some "open" code | Mar 07 10:39 |
| kingoffrance | i was more replying to mjg59 quote steele "Open data is largely worthless unless you have open hardware and open software" as some ppl use it now, its "holistic" | Mar 07 10:39 |
| schestowitz__ | but github is proprietary, a trap, and an ATTACK on both Free software and Open Sourfce | Mar 07 10:39 |
| schestowitz__ | I don't bother with that toll | Mar 07 10:39 |
| schestowitz__ | troll | Mar 07 10:39 |
| kingoffrance | i agree thats probably vague too of course "open hardware" can mean many things | Mar 07 10:39 |
| schestowitz__ | we're under no burden to justify things to military-grade troll and horrible person | Mar 07 10:40 |
| schestowitz__ | kingoffrance: it was said before OSI | Mar 07 10:40 |
| schestowitz__ | I found it several times in Debian-Private mailing lists | Mar 07 10:40 |
| schestowitz__ | also, openbsd predated this | Mar 07 10:40 |
| schestowitz__ | just sticking "source" for "source code" after that is no ingenuity | Mar 07 10:40 |
| schestowitz__ | it's a corporate-led media stunt | Mar 07 10:41 |
| schestowitz__ | and they're STILL at it BTW | Mar 07 10:41 |
| kingoffrance | yeah agree thats how i feel about "open hardware" ...details please | Mar 07 10:42 |
| schestowitz__ | fsf does not use this term | Mar 07 10:46 |
| schestowitz__ | it refers to hardware designs | Mar 07 10:46 |

| DaemonFC[m] | They diversify to sell whatever you want to drink, so I'm glad when they have water refill stations. | Mar 07 15:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I use those instead of drinking from the fountain, but Coke must be glad that they turned the drinking fountains off everywhere. | Mar 07 15:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Most bottle refill stations still work though. | Mar 07 15:18 |

| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz Mom always laughs about my cheapness and I say "Well, everything I save either goes to Mandy's retirement account or savings bonds now that we have enough of an emergency fund readily available.". | Mar 07 15:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's a foreign concept to many people. Why get a $60 pair of shoes that last a year or two when a $20 pair from Walmart is just as good? Things like that. | Mar 07 15:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If you shift the focus to saving $10 here and $20 there and $50 here and $100 there, you gather savings instead of debt. | Mar 07 15:26 |
| schestowitz__ | yeah | Mar 07 15:26 |
| schestowitz__ | we're mostly the same, maybe can retire early | Mar 07 15:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Debt is negative work because things you already bought continue to drag you down even after the product is worn out and due for replacement. | Mar 07 15:27 |
| schestowitz__ | depending on inflation, which can be crazy | Mar 07 15:27 |
| schestowitz__ | debt also has interest | Mar 07 15:27 |
| schestowitz__ | varies | Mar 07 15:27 |
| schestowitz__ | depending on where from | Mar 07 15:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yes, that's mostly how it drags you down. | Mar 07 15:27 |
| schestowitz__ | with patience you can buy the same thing twice | Mar 07 15:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Before you're even done paying for it, it costs perhaps twice as much as it did on the shelf that day, and it's worn out. | Mar 07 15:28 |
| schestowitz__ | for the same overall cost | Mar 07 15:28 |

| schestowitz__ | "haha, you still use a phone of last year's model! loser!" | Mar 07 15:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | And when you repair that part, that part probably won't be a problem again whereas a payment is just a payment on a car that is accumulating wear. | Mar 07 15:29 |

| schestowitz__ | laptops etc. | Mar 07 15:30 |
| schestowitz__ | more on topic | Mar 07 15:30 |
| schestowitz__ | 'phones' too | Mar 07 15:30 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They mark it down hundreds with an instant rebate. | Mar 07 15:30 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Only difference is that it's $400 now and it was $800 two months ago. | Mar 07 15:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They know that these things are massively overpriced. They are the people who did it. | Mar 07 15:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You're not buying something that's going to last forever. Why would you spend over $1,600 on it? | Mar 07 15:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They price phones anywhere between 3 and 8 times wholesale and then graciously offer "zero interest financing". How does that work? Right. | Mar 07 15:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Theb it gets even better. | Mar 07 15:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Phone protection plans. | Mar 07 15:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Which many people get as a credit card benefit for free just by buying the phone with that card or paying their bill with it. | Mar 07 15:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So that eats up $1,400 over ten years. | Mar 07 15:35 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Nobody reads the credit card benefit book. So they may be paying for something they already have. | Mar 07 15:35 |
| schestowitz__ | yup | Mar 07 15:36 |
| schestowitz__ | sad, but.. | Mar 07 15:36 |
| schestowitz__ | some people enrich themselves with these insecure and lazy buyers | Mar 07 15:36 |
| schestowitz__ | in large quantities | Mar 07 15:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | This is how they really soak people on a phone. | Mar 07 15:36 |
| schestowitz__ | 10 million people x $1000 profit margin = 10 billion bucks, no tax to pay if you're GAFAM, you evade it with small bribes | Mar 07 15:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yes. Income taxes are designed to bring down poor people and make them pay for the government that doesn't do shit for them. | Mar 07 15:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Any way you can use the system's rules to avoid tax is desirable. | Mar 07 15:38 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz The government allows you to deduct retirement plan contributions from gross pay and that may totally be worth it. They tax you when you take it out, but most people make less in retirement. | Mar 07 15:39 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So if you can avoid a higher bracket now, you could win in the long haul. | Mar 07 15:39 |
| MinceR | other taxes do that too | Mar 07 15:39 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Even if you manage to make so much that you end up paying tax on half your Social Security, you'll still probably be in the lowest bracket in retirement. | Mar 07 15:40 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But mom is finding out that she'll be too broke in retirement to pay tax on half her Social Security. | Mar 07 15:41 |
| techrights-bot | "Also, this is a reminder that Rocket League still works fine on Linux even after the termination of the native port and the big Epic client update in September 2020…" https://boilingsteam.com/rocket-league-still-thriving-on-steam-while-delisted/ | Mar 07 15:41 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-boilingsteam.com | Rocket League Still Thriving on Steam While Delisted - Boiling Steam | Mar 07 15:41 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | I think we're looking at the lowest bracket for sure then. | Mar 07 15:41 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So it's worth avoiding the 12 and 15% ones now by contributing just enough to get to 10%. | Mar 07 15:41 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Because it lowers your lifetime average effective rate. | Mar 07 15:42 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The IRS doesn't use blended rates so it is worth planning to.just miss the next bracket. | Mar 07 15:43 |
| schestowitz__ | what's retirement age for women in IN? | Mar 07 15:43 |

| schestowitz__ | living just to work for oligarchs | Mar 07 15:46 |
| schestowitz__ | I mean, it's not even easy ti work at 69 | Mar 07 15:47 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Walmart starts doubling Mandy's contribution to 401(k) up to 6% in May. | Mar 07 15:47 |
| schestowitz__ | no "69" anymore | Mar 07 15:47 |
| schestowitz__ | just "back pains" | Mar 07 15:47 |
| schestowitz__ | and "knee joints swollen" | Mar 07 15:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I already set up 6% so I don't forget and miss any of the matching funds. | Mar 07 15:47 |
| schestowitz__ | that's very far away | Mar 07 15:47 |
| schestowitz__ | there can be wars and stuff | Mar 07 15:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That would let them keep over $2,400 a year so really dumb. | Mar 07 15:47 |
| schestowitz__ | but knowing him, he's otherwise blow that sum on a piece of crap some call 'phone' | Mar 07 15:48 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah. Well, not contributing 6% screws you out of 12%, the tax deduction, and growth. | Mar 07 15:49 |

| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz Some lady Mandy works with only puts in 2%. | Mar 07 15:50 |
| schestowitz__ | so you pay 40% of the sum | Mar 07 15:50 |
| schestowitz__ | but that money/account is still risky | Mar 07 15:50 |
| schestowitz__ | you don't have anything but pinky promise | Mar 07 15:51 |

| DaemonFC[m] | No need for racism. Most people are too stupid to be trusted with anything important. | Mar 07 21:28 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, and people in their 40s and under are not generally priorities for the vaccine right now. | Mar 07 21:52 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I had to get creative to get vaccines for me and Mandy. | Mar 07 21:52 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Mutations, actually. | Mar 07 21:53 |

| DaemonFC[m] | The virus isn't that deadly to people under 50, so far. | Mar 07 21:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But it can kill younger. I saw a healthy 18 year old listed as dead from COVID in WGN the other day. | Mar 07 21:55 |
