mateythat trick has a place. (this isnt it)Jul 10 03:17
mateyive used that trick many times, and it goes like this:Jul 10 03:17
matey1. we can see whats happening NOWJul 10 03:17
matey2. but the public has an institutional inertia that keeps them seeing what HAPPENED for some timeJul 10 03:18
mateyso you phrase things that are happening now as "will happen"Jul 10 03:18
mateyto make them think about the PRESENT, despite the fact that their past NEGATES (overrides) any awareness of the present.Jul 10 03:18
mateymoving it to the future (note: theres an entire genre that works this way-- called sci-fi) gives people a new way to look at whats happening.Jul 10 03:19
mateytheres a famous quote about "the future is already here" that begs people to do this.Jul 10 03:20

matey Novell gave money to the FSF and yet the FSF immediately spoke out against Novell’s “deal”; but such conflicts of interest did occasionally cause trouble and, charting Linux Foundation territories/waters, this can lead to trouble.Jul 10 03:21
mateyyou almost admit it:Jul 10 03:21
matey" did occasionally cause trouble" | "can lead to trouble."Jul 10 03:22
mateybut there it is: youre going backwards, from "here is a crisis" to "this COULD become a crisis"Jul 10 03:22
mateyif you go in that direction, youre not warning people: youre admitting it then backpedallingJul 10 03:22
mateyyoure downplaying.Jul 10 03:22

DaemonFCWhy? Well, the Democrats don't want to say water is a human right.Jul 10 06:20
DaemonFCThey keep jacking up the cost of water. It has nothing to do with the cost of providing water anymore.Jul 10 06:20
DaemonFCThey just raise it every year so they can waste the money on themselves, the public union crooks digging up roads that have nothing wrong with them, and the teachers that keep putting out the dumbest adults ever.Jul 10 06:21
DaemonFCRoughly in that order.Jul 10 06:21
DaemonFCIf the Democrats declare water to be a human right, it would obligate them to provide some water to people so they don't die of thirst.Jul 10 06:21

psydruidsomeone is arguing with me because I consider Dino the XMPP client typical GNOME bloatware and I said "Dino should go extinct"Jul 10 15:38
bnchsgajim looks like discordJul 10 15:39
psydruidresponse: "Dino has a/v support for both linux and the windows fork. Which is something that gajim hasn't fully implemented yet. As well as gajim's a/v implementation is still unencrypted. Also groupcalls work on dino. And why do you think dino bloated eventhough it is almost as simplistic as it can get."Jul 10 15:40
bnchsprofanity or psi is probably the only good XMPP clientJul 10 15:40
bnchsthe problem is that those don't support enough featuresJul 10 15:40
psydruidresponse: "They both have their pro's and con's but to say that dino is terrible and that it should go extinct is not really based on a well build argument."Jul 10 15:40

mateyand not long after it just disappearedJul 10 16:10
mateykabbalah helps explain a number of jewish ritualsJul 10 16:10
mateywithout it, a lot of people just do things by rote, and dont know or care whyJul 10 16:11
mateydoing things without knowing why other than "god said" is even less healthy than having a rich tapestry of symbolism behind "god said"Jul 10 16:11
mateyit only becomes more rigid and pointlessJul 10 16:12
mateybut the point of course, is that if icewm only exists on github and local mirrorsJul 10 16:12
mateythat helps very few people-- it doesnt provide an alternative to the github version for most peopleJul 10 16:12
MinceRwas there ever a true messiah?Jul 10 16:12
mateynot according to judaismJul 10 16:13

mateybut slightly different approachesJul 10 16:22
MinceRAOSP is less locked down and it's still androidJul 10 16:23
mateyyeahJul 10 16:23
mateythe design still sucks thoughJul 10 16:23
MinceRand the design of systemd sucks harderJul 10 16:24
mateythats probably trueJul 10 16:24
mateybut my point wasJul 10 16:24
mateythe more systemd takes over, the more android-like it becomesJul 10 16:24
mateyand that says a lot about both imoJul 10 16:25
mateyim certain that by the time systemd becomes ibm androidJul 10 16:25
mateyit will be even shittier than google androidJul 10 16:25
mateyi dont think the people who designed android were idiotsJul 10 16:26
mateyi seem to recall that like youtube, google didnt develop android originally-- purchased?Jul 10 16:26

matey it's tending more toward windows and macos than toward android <- imo its taking the worst of everythingJul 10 16:27
MinceRit's still less shit than bìng, but that's a far lower bar than "works"Jul 10 16:28

matey1. people who do it because fuck the system / information wants to be free / im cool because i removed copy protection schemeJul 10 16:39
matey2. people who have an insatiable appetite for new stuff to playJul 10 16:40
MinceR3. people who can't afford to pay for software licensesJul 10 16:40
mateysure, thats fairJul 10 16:40
mateybut for the few things i needed that i couldnt affordJul 10 16:40
MinceR4. people who can afford to pay but have no access to the payment method (though this is probably less of a thing now)Jul 10 16:41
mateyi just copied that (without a network) from something i borroedJul 10 16:41
mateyso like i had one copy of windows...Jul 10 16:41
mateyand one keyJul 10 16:42
mateyi would actually obtain new (legit) keys about as often as i would use my install mediaJul 10 16:42
mateyi wasnt trying to, it just happenedJul 10 16:42
mateyi wasnt really interested in microsoft officeJul 10 16:43
mateyuntil mozilla became a thing, i would install netscape from a cd that i got from my ispJul 10 16:44
mateyi had dialup, so i didnt want to download itJul 10 16:44
mateyby the time i knew what free/open was, i mostly wanted stuff that was free to copy, at the very leaseJul 10 16:46
mateyleastJul 10 16:46
mateybecause i liked the idea of software you could legally shareJul 10 16:46
mateyso even though i was using windows still, i was replacing every tiny bit of it i could with something non-microsoftJul 10 16:47
mateythe shell, the browser, the file manager, i called the internet dialer from the command line tool that sys-internals madeJul 10 16:48
mateyas much of it as possible was non-microsoftJul 10 16:48
mateythanks to fucking github im doing it again in 2020-somethingJul 10 16:48
mateyand yes, sys-internals got bought by microsoftJul 10 16:49
mateyjust like the linux kernelJul 10 16:50
mateyill be thrilled when these companies finally die, but it wont be half as soon as roy saysJul 10 16:50

mateylocal mirrors are definitely a good first step away from githubJul 10 18:12
mateyideally they would also be mirrored somewhere public so more people benefitJul 10 18:13
MinceRif i had infinite storage and bandwidth, i'd set up an automatic shithub mirroring serviceJul 10 18:13
mateyeven if you mirrored the few things you actually gave a shit aboutJul 10 18:13
mateyand more people did that, it would be hugeJul 10 18:14
mateyimo the best way (certainly not the only way) to do a mirror is via tor hidden serviceJul 10 18:14
mateyits easy to setup, ssl is built in, no lf/le certs, no dns monopoliesJul 10 18:15
mateydrawbacks of tor are obvious Jul 10 18:15

mateyi like tor a lot moreJul 10 18:18
mateyi see tor as the most legit alternative to mozilla, along several axesJul 10 18:18
mateybut a fork of tor would be better, and the browser is optionalJul 10 18:19
mateytor at least has their own repo, so tor browser isnt technically github basedJul 10 18:19
mateybut obviously the language its written in (like most) would be github basedJul 10 18:19

DaemonFCHaving brake issues with the car again.Jul 10 21:38
DaemonFCChrist.Jul 10 21:38
DaemonFCI just redid the brakes. What the hell is happening with that thing?Jul 10 21:38
DaemonFCIt's under warranty. I'm going to have them look at it again.Jul 10 21:38
DaemonFCI call it the "farting brake pedal".Jul 10 21:39
DaemonFCBecause sometimes it makes a "farting" noise and the pedal pulses a little, and then it's fine again for a while.Jul 10 21:39
DaemonFCIt was doing it almost every single time I stopped when I took it in for new wheel bearings, brake pads, and rotors, back in April.Jul 10 21:40
DaemonFCI have not seen anything weird going on with the rotors.Jul 10 21:40
DaemonFCI inspected them when I got home. Took it through the car was and had it flush everything out really good.Jul 10 21:40
DaemonFCI had a bird strike this morning taking Mandy to work.Jul 10 21:40
DaemonFCA bird flew in front of the car, swooped down and I felt it in the steering wheel when I hit it going about 40 or 45 miles per hour.Jul 10 21:41
DaemonFCIt felt like it bounced off the bumper or something, but it may have gone under the car.Jul 10 21:41
DaemonFCI went to the car wash in case there were bird bits or something stuck in the wheel well somewhere that I couldn't see.Jul 10 21:42
DaemonFCThe thing was fucking huge.Jul 10 21:42
DaemonFCI ran it back on my dashcam and it captured the strike.Jul 10 21:43
DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], Reminds me of Married With Children.Jul 10 21:43
DaemonFCRemember when Steve had to drive his Mercedes through Grant Park to get away from a road rage incident and he hit a bunch of pigeons?Jul 10 21:44
DaemonFCThey got stuck in his radiator grill and roasted to death on it.Jul 10 21:44
DaemonFCAl says "Bud!" and he's got a bucket and tongs and says "Already on it, dad! Just call me the Colonel!".Jul 10 21:44
DaemonFCYou had to watch through the series to notice that something bad was always happening to Steve's Mercedes.Jul 10 21:45
DaemonFCJust off the top of my head there were the pigeons, Al backing into it and leaving a note "Next time buy an American car!", Marcy driving it in defiance of Steve telling her to leave her hands off of it, and scraping the side on the mailbox (iirc), and finally, they go camping and a bear attacks it and rips it apart and tosses Steve the hood ornament, and he's in shock going "$26,000!!!!". (Which bought a Mercedes in 1985, of course. Now you Jul 10 21:47
DaemonFCcan barely get a KIA for that.)Jul 10 21:47
DaemonFCThe US government says the value of $1 when I was born in 1984 is now something like 42 cents. Something like that. Which doesn't sound so bad.Jul 10 21:48
schestowitz[TR]hiJul 10 21:49
DaemonFCUntil you consider that if you adjust it for rent, it's about 19 cents. If you adjust it for food, it's about 24 cents, and if you adjust it for a comparable size, brand, and quality of car, it's about 25 cents or so.Jul 10 21:49
DaemonFCIf you adjust it for gas, you're at about 16 cents.Jul 10 21:50

DaemonFCAbout the only things that have gone down in actual or inflation adjusted terms are consumer crap that you really don't need, such as television sets, or things that people don't want anymore and can't command the price they had as a luxury item, like a stereo system and the CDs it can play.Jul 10 21:53
DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], Sweatshops.Jul 10 21:57
DaemonFCThe people who voted for Ross Perot were really onto something.Jul 10 21:57
DaemonFCShame he didn't win.Jul 10 21:58
DaemonFCI think he really would have terminated NAFTA before things could ever get this bad.Jul 10 21:58
DaemonFCWe already had the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement, and that didn't turn us into a "free trade zone" with a third world country where the money would flow in one direction and sweatshop goods would pour back in.Jul 10 21:59
DaemonFCWhen you throw in Mexico, I mean... It didn't make Mexico much better.Jul 10 22:00
DaemonFCThere's a few really rich Mexicans that run the sweatshops.Jul 10 22:00
DaemonFCSome got bad jobs in factories. It ruined Mexico's agriculture and banking sectors.Jul 10 22:00
DaemonFCThe US banks and corn and stuff started flowing in, which made the drug problem worse.Jul 10 22:00
DaemonFCWithout food crops to grow legitimately to meet domestic needs, the farmers in Mexico turned to things like Marijuana.Jul 10 22:01
DaemonFCThe government in Mexico is too weak and corrupt to deal with the drug trade. At the local level, the cartels run everything. They're so well armed that the military can't even move in and restore law and order.Jul 10 22:02
DaemonFCSo it's at a standstill, and by standstill, that means ongoing bloodbath.Jul 10 22:02

DaemonFCIt makes it hard to establish domestic tech and software industries because you agree to the deals, you agree to the patents.Jul 10 22:04
schestowitz[TR]it's just codifying what ensures the rich get richerJul 10 22:04

schestowitz[TR]they control everytthingJul 10 22:04
schestowitz[TR]even the electionsJul 10 22:04
DaemonFCThese deals have created a perverse bizarro world where most Americans have a third world standard of living while everyone else hates us because they assume we can seize control via an election or something and put the train back on the tracks.Jul 10 22:05
DaemonFCSaying you hate Americans is like saying you hate Russians, blanket statement.Jul 10 22:05

DaemonFC<schestowitz[TR]> USians are sometimes distrusted because of perceievd arroganceJul 10 22:09
DaemonFCI wouldn't necessarily say that I'm any more or less arrogant than the average person I've encountered in Western Europe.Jul 10 22:09
DaemonFCMost of them think their country that has had the shit taxed out of it while they stand in 6 year lines to get surgery from "free healthcare" and they're overrun by crime is the pinnacle of civilization.Jul 10 22:10

DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], The funny thing is when we do our taxes and either owe or get a refund from the Illinois Department of Revenue....Jul 10 22:12
DaemonFCThe bank says "State of ILL".Jul 10 22:12

DaemonFC<schestowitz[TR]> "give me your ill"Jul 10 22:15

DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], I put in a couple of orders for canned luncheon meat at Walmart to wipe out the shelf of the store brand for Less Sodium and LITE.Jul 10 22:18
DaemonFCThey're starting to have severe in stock problems.Jul 10 22:18
DaemonFCSo I'm just going to buy all I can get of it when it is there and put it under the bed. No it's not a Madame Harmon thing. It stays good for 10 years and we eat quite a bit of it.Jul 10 22:18
DaemonFCThey raised the price of the name brand significantly, but not the store brand oddly enough. So there used to be a relatively small difference, and now it's huge.Jul 10 22:19
DaemonFC$1.98 a can vs. $3.12, and now the name brand is $3.58 a can.Jul 10 22:20
DaemonFCThey turned something we used to laugh at into something that's actually really really expensive.Jul 10 22:20
DaemonFCYou used to look at SPAM as "thrifty" right? Because it was an example of industrial-scale problem solving for the agricultural industry. We'd pass out millions and millions of cans of it to prevent people from starving.Jul 10 22:21
*betsy has quit (connection closed)Jul 10 22:21
DaemonFCJust the way it's processed, it says "Use by 2033" or something on the can and to be honest if you store it right, it's probably safe for at least a couple more years after that.Jul 10 22:22

DaemonFCIt's pretty simple stuff that stays good indefinitely.Jul 10 22:23

DaemonFCWe used to go on vacation to the Adam's Mark Hotel in Indianapolis, and stay there for like a week, and they hosted a science fiction convention dad would go to.Jul 10 22:28
DaemonFCThe hotel was really so classy that I can't imagine how they got a sci-fi convention there where a bunch of weirdos showed up.Jul 10 22:28
DaemonFCThey got kicked out of the hotel a few times.Jul 10 22:29
DaemonFCWeird stuff would go on, like one year a woman was having sex with a bunch of men in the hot tub.Jul 10 22:29
