schestowitz-TR [00:10] <DaemonFC> Her husband is a really weird guy.\ May 11 00:11
DaemonFC The bulbs cost about 1/6th of a new big screen LED that'll take up 20% of the electric and the reverse projection bulbs just burn out again in a few years so you have to replace them over and over. May 11 00:11

schestowitz-TR or to say May 11 00:18

schestowitz-TR follow the money of the debtors May 11 00:18
DaemonFC The insurance companies use it to rate you. May 11 00:18

schestowitz-TR claiming 0% interest May 11 00:19
DaemonFC Yeah, for a while anyway. On a credit card? May 11 00:19
DaemonFC 15-18 months. May 11 00:19
DaemonFC It's how they reel you in. May 11 00:19
schestowitz-TR some people borrow money to buy homes overvalued before the bubble implodes May 11 00:19
DaemonFC At first it doesn't cost you that much to go into debt and make minimum payments. May 11 00:20
activelow puff piece is a rather polite expression to describe openssf ... May 11 00:20
DaemonFC 18 months sounds like forever. May 11 00:20
schestowitz-TR and then they sit on an "asset" worth barely half what they paid May 11 00:20
DaemonFC So you max out the card and 18 months happens and then you're in trouble. May 11 00:20
schestowitz-TR one reason I want to change jobs is the loan shark we're made to "help" May 11 00:21
schestowitz-TR they run a network of wordpress sites that they use to rope in victims May 11 00:21
schestowitz-TR i refuse to work on that May 11 00:21
schestowitz-TR those sites should all be OFFLINE May 11 00:21
DaemonFC Yeah, well, I have bills and Mandy's like "Don't we already have like 7 credit cards?". May 11 00:22
DaemonFC And I said, "Yeah.". May 11 00:22
DaemonFC He goes, "Well what the fuck are you doing with 7 credit cards?". May 11 00:22
schestowitz-TR better to have more bank accounts May 11 00:22

schestowitz-TR it's subject to change May 11 00:23
schestowitz-TR what you sign might have a section consenting to future changes May 11 00:23
schestowitz-TR and then before you know it they rip you off May 11 00:23
schestowitz-TR like a bank once did when closing my account while stealing my balance May 11 00:24
schestowitz-TR because they had lied to me about no annual charges May 11 00:24
DaemonFC Well, the federal Credit CARD Act says they have to notify you 45 days in advance of changes. May 11 00:24
*bnchs has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) May 11 00:24
schestowitz-TR and then quietly added those in May 11 00:24
schestowitz-TR better to record what banksters tell you May 11 00:24
DaemonFC And you can cancel the card, and they can't make those changes retroactive on things you've already put on the card. May 11 00:24
schestowitz-TR so you can prove they broke a promise or lied May 11 00:24
DaemonFC I get emails saying "Our Card Agreement has changed. Here's what's changing." sometimes and I read them. May 11 00:25

activelow doubt openssf intersects with any real project... not sure May 11 00:34
activelow i remember, gentoo founder went to microsoft.. and gentoo does exactly what openssf announces it would do May 11 00:34
activelow ideally i can remove all gentoo dependencies, that's why tinycc is important too, because toolchain maintenance of GCC etc. is too complicated May 11 00:35
activelow few days ago, gentoo.org security notifications labeled _all_ web browsers red with highest severity May 11 00:37
activelow one example, and they jumped into bed with each other, microsoft edge, chromium May 11 00:38

XRevan86 "tinycc is important" <- It didn't take long for activelow to forget that compilers like https://sr.ht/~mcf/cproc/ exist. May 11 00:38

activelow XRevan86: if you're willing to help i would be curious if any other compiler can compile linux kernel, such as QBE, tinycc May 11 00:40
XRevan86 QBE is not a compiler, it's a compiler back-end akin to LLVM but simpler. May 11 00:41

XRevan86 activelow: That feature-dead compiler is sure the best chance at compiling contemporary Linux. May 11 00:48
XRevan86 Because many years in its prime it could build something from the Linux source tree. May 11 00:48
XRevan86 * many years ago May 11 00:48
activelow it could compile entire linux v2.6, JIT, yes May 11 00:48
XRevan86 That actively developed compiler that states C11 and some GCC extensions' compliance has nothing on TinyCC. May 11 00:49
activelow linux v4.6 bricked, only partial success, kernel v5.10 required some nasty patching already for gcc-4.7 (no time yet for tinycc)... and kernel v5.15 locked into some more feature creap again and gcc-5.x... May 11 00:50
XRevan86 I really doubt that it can build Linux, but maybe it will fail later in the build process than TinyCC. May 11 00:50
activelow XRevan86: situation currently is simply this, i am not aware of any C(!) compiler which demonstarted it fully compiled linux kernel v5.10 May 11 00:50
XRevan86 activelow: That attempt at "sic!" is not really successful, because GCC and Clang are C compilers amongst other things, and they demonstrated that they can. May 11 00:52
*goosestepping_ has quit (Quit: Ping timeout: Over 9000!!!) May 11 00:53
activelow >gcc-4.7 and llvm/clang are C++ compilers, end of discussion; these are written in c++, and have the usual characterstics of this type of software which is typically written with c++ May 11 00:53

DaemonFC LOL May 11 00:54
activelow XRevan86: i already patched kernel 5.10, what have you got to claim you progressed further with QBE? May 11 00:54
activelow too i downgraded to gcc-4.7 already, wiped all c++ dependencies... what have you got in preparation for any C(!) compiler to feed with? May 11 00:55
DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I tend to do things in such a way that it doesn't go too much against the flow, when possible. May 11 00:55
activelow anyway... triggered another devdrop build, which just launched, meaning good night May 11 00:55
DaemonFC I finally broke my mom of one bad habit (for the environment and the bank account). Changing your oil every few months. May 11 00:56
XRevan86 activelow: "gcc-4.7 and llvm/clang are C++ compilers, end of discussion; these are written in c++" <- So the language in which the compiler is written is what language the compiler is for? May 11 00:56
DaemonFC I managed to make my case that as long as you're checking it every couple of weeks to make sure you're not losing any, you can usually do it about every year with the mileage she's driving. May 11 00:56

DaemonFC I've never had a car with engine problems. May 11 00:57

activelow XRevan86: yes, the choice of implementation language of the compile define it's qualities May 11 00:57

techrights-news KDE-Neon is such an awkward distro. Each OS update is like (almost) installing everything all over again, and it only configures itself during the reboot. It's not for your average production system. Also: memory leaks. May 11 01:13

DaemonFC Russia seems to be really good at producing tanks to drive up and then get burned alive in when a Javelin hits them. May 11 01:14

XRevan86 schestowitz: There are several factors at play: 1. plain fear, because of which people who disagree are much less likely to even respond; 2. lack of consequences, since people don't have a part in decision making they are less likely to bother to have a well-formed opinion; 3. state propaganda which brain-washes at unprecedented levels; 4. natural human comformism which makes people less likely to sid May 11 01:32

DaemonFC <MinceR> was that confirmed to be done by ukrainian forces? May 11 05:23
DaemonFC Unless Russia blew up their own fuel depot for whatever reason, I suppose. May 11 05:24
DaemonFC Don't know why they would. May 11 05:24
DaemonFC Maybe XRevan86 could speculate. May 11 05:24
DaemonFC MinceR, Maybe Jussie Smollett gave the Russians advice on how to conduct the war. May 11 05:25
DaemonFC First you kick your own ass, then you get caught, then it's the end of your career, then you go to jail, then you get out of jail when you whine that they only sent you to jail for being black. May 11 05:26
DaemonFC Profit. May 11 05:26
DaemonFC MinceR, So, the Buick dealer wants $60,000 for a Buick today. May 11 05:28
DaemonFC And there's no Buick on their lot that costs less than $53,250. May 11 05:28
DaemonFC That's the base model. May 11 05:28
DaemonFC If you want to lease one of the $60,000 Buicks, you get a three year lease. You have to pay them $6,000 down and another $24,000 in installments over 36 months. Then if you turn it in with more than 10,000 miles on the odometer, you owe an additional 25 cents per mile when you go to turn it in. May 11 05:29
DaemonFC So it's half the cost of buying one, you never own it, they take it back in three years, and you're barely allowed to drive it. May 11 05:30
DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, That seems like one of the worst deals out there to me. May 11 05:30
DaemonFC The average annual mileage a vehicle is driven is 9,250 in the United States, per year. May 11 05:31
DaemonFC So if you just drive the average amount, you will owe them $4,437.50 in mileage when you go to turn it in. May 11 05:32
DaemonFC So at that point, you paid $34,437.50+tax to lease a $60,000 Buick for three years and then turn it back in. May 11 05:32
DaemonFC And if it's been scratched, scraped, dented, door dinged, etc. they want money for that too. May 11 05:32
DaemonFC I remember mom telling me they were at a drive in movie with my dad and my aunt and uncle back in the 70s and some guy kept getting out and whacking my dad's Plymouth with their car door. So he got out (wearing steel toed boots) and kicked the side of their car and left a huge dent in it. May 11 05:34
DaemonFC "Violent crime happens in Afghanistan during all times of day, so do not think that daylight makes you safe. You can expect muggings, burglaries, and carjacking since this country is shaken by war and in extremely bad condition. The risk increases after dark, so avoid going anywhere after nightfall." May 11 05:36
DaemonFC Just replace "Afghanistan" with "Chicago" and you get a good description of Chicago. May 11 05:36
DaemonFC Nobody worries about damaging your car. May 11 05:40
DaemonFC You're lucky if they don't just point a gun at you and say "That's my car now. Get out!". May 11 05:40
DaemonFC It's amazing how light Chicago gets off on the website about travel risk I'm reading. May 11 05:41
DaemonFC Carjackings in Chicago have gotten so bad that they even carjacked the state senate majority leader. May 11 05:41
DaemonFC I'm sure that the police are working her case real hard after her defund the police bill. May 11 05:42
DaemonFC MinceR, Someone at the Catholic church was talking about Hell. May 11 05:42
DaemonFC I said, "Actually, there is no Hell, but I hear Chicago's getting close.". May 11 05:43
DaemonFC Christians are like Star Trek nerds. May 11 05:44
DaemonFC Huddling together, comparing the source material. May 11 05:44
DaemonFC Arguing whether they liked Kirk or Picard. May 11 05:44

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.travelsafe-abroad.com | How Safe Is United States for Travel? (2022 Updated) ⋆ Travel Safe - Abroad May 11 05:49
DaemonFC "This country is infamous for gun usage and the selling of guns, but the truth is that most violent crimes that do occur in the US, occur in suburbs or urban areas of some cities. May 11 05:49
DaemonFC It is by no means as widespread throughout the entire country as the media would have us believe." May 11 05:49
DaemonFC It is by no means as widespread throughout the entire country as the media would have us believe." May 11 05:49
DaemonFC Yeah, because most of it is gang warfare in major cities which are unlivable cesspits anyway. May 11 05:50
DaemonFC Even if you ignore the crime, the cost of living easily doubles (or more) so you wouldn't want to go there anyway if you were smart. May 11 05:50
DaemonFC They don't mention that gun crime committed by people who were legally allowed to buy and sell guns is very uncommon. May 11 05:50
DaemonFC The areas of the country with the highest rates of legal gun ownership are also some of the safest area of the country to travel to. May 11 05:51
DaemonFC Usually, you'd be okay there even if you walk around at night or leave your car door unlocked. May 11 05:51
DaemonFC The criminal activity that tends to happen the most in rural areas where legal gun ownership is high tend to be someone smoking marijuana. May 11 05:52
DaemonFC While I lived in a town in Indiana of about 37,000 where almost everyone had a gun in the house, there were 2 murders in 14 years. May 11 05:53
DaemonFC There was also a bank robbery, but amusingly enough he had a fake gun during the robbery. May 11 05:54
DaemonFC Of the two murders in the 14 years, neither of them happened involving a gun. One was a DEA agent who was burned to death and another was a guy who followed his cheating wife into a convenience store and stabbed her. May 11 05:55
DaemonFC Quite frequently, I would walk around the entire town at night for something to do (exercise) with four or five thousand dollars cash in my pocket. May 11 05:55
DaemonFC Nothing ever happened. Quite often I wouldn't even see one other person out, or sometimes just the sporadic traffic on US 30, which ran through the town. May 11 05:56
DaemonFC Meanwhile, in Chicago, three teenagers mugged me at gunpoint on month two and stole my phone. May 11 05:57
DaemonFC I didn't have any cash on me because I knew I was in a large city where a mugging was possible. May 11 05:57

DaemonFC If you're literally anywhere else in Illinois, it's not very likely. May 11 05:59
DaemonFC Liberals have to blame guns for the fact that criminal gangs are roaming the streets and it wouldn't be politically correct to jail them. Even though the state does pretty much fuck all about crime, Chicago is one of the most heavily surveiled cities in America, and even the world. May 11 06:00

matey its only sort of about saddam, an unfortunate (unintended) side effect of this analogy is that rms is saddam of course May 11 09:05

matey first, he was a secular leader, not a religious one May 11 09:07
matey so even if he was shit, now the region is overrun with violent religious extremists May 11 09:07
matey thats not really an improvement is it May 11 09:07

schestowitz-TR Bryant had to sort of vanish due to threats to his family May 11 09:30

matey the thing is, many whistleblowers started out as people who believed in the good of the system May 11 09:30
matey then once they realised it wasnt good May 11 09:30
schestowitz-TR became a hero for a bit, then had to go undercover like Rushdie May 11 09:30

matey also the divide between gnu and fsf is completely artificial May 11 09:46
matey the fsf has the copyright, the trademark, the funding, the infrastructure, AND it holds the leader hostage May 11 09:47
matey there was this effort to pretend that gnu is separate from the fsf May 11 09:48
matey how is it separate? their fates are entirely linked May 11 09:48
matey by all of the above and more May 11 09:49
matey if the fsf falls, gnu falls May 11 09:49
matey and without gnu, the fsf is a joke May 11 09:49
matey how can the fsf protect YOUR freedom when they cant even protect their own? May 11 09:49
mjg59_ If GNU made a clear argument that they were able and wanted to manage the copyright for GNU code, there's no political way the FSF could say no May 11 09:50
mjg59_ And I'd be in favour of that if that's what GNU projects wanted May 11 09:50
matey as far as i know, gnu is just a brand May 11 09:50
matey and a brand cant hold copyright May 11 09:50
mjg59_ There's no meaningful legal entity, but that's fixable May 11 09:51
matey or breakable May 11 09:51
matey id say the latter is more likely May 11 09:51
mjg59_ There's obviously risks associated with taking over responsibilities from a relatively well-funded org May 11 09:51
mjg59_ But GNU *could* exist independently, if GNU so chose May 11 09:51
matey this is one of those things where May 11 09:52
matey on the surface theres absolutely zero wrong with your argument May 11 09:52
mjg59_ If there's no existing mechanism for transfer of copyrights in the event of the FSF failing (and that's something I really should have investigated while I was there but didn't, that's on me), that should be fixed May 11 09:52
matey i think the reality is that if gnu became independent, it would die an even faster, messier death May 11 09:53
matey not because the fsf is protecting it May 11 09:53
matey anymore than calculus acts as a barrier between sugary food and a tooth May 11 09:53

matey so you needed two cables from (/to) the monitor but you only needed one going to the wall May 11 11:02
DaemonFC Because some of the humor involves taking idiots who want to be wrong with authority and ruining their day and getting them angry at you, and giving zero fucks. May 11 11:02
DaemonFC The hallmark of a guy who has lost his argument is that they should just be free of any criticism and that's the end of that. May 11 11:03

DaemonFC I'm not calling for summary execution by the police, like the Philippines has. May 11 11:13
DaemonFC I'm saying arrest the bad guys and when you prove that they did whatever they did, give them what they have coming to them. May 11 11:13
matey A 2017 DPIC analysis found that abolishing the death penalty had no measurable effect on murder rates in general or the rate at which police officers are killed, contradicting popular arguments that the death penalty is necessary for public safety and to protect law enforcement officials. May 11 11:14
matey there are lower murder rates in places without the death penalty May 11 11:14

DaemonFC There's less margarine consumption per capita in states with less divorce. May 11 11:16
matey but if you think any solution is a good one, that explains why people still use windows May 11 11:16
matey <DaemonFC> There's less margarine consumption per capita in states with less divorce. <- dont be silly, you stated a casual relationship then when data doesnt support it you pull out post hoc? May 11 11:17
DaemonFC Have you considered that the death penalty exists because those states are dealing with a crime problem and the public wants something done about it. And that the death penalty isn't effective because they get to appeal it well past when their guilt has been proven. May 11 11:17
matey Have you considered that the death penalty exists because those states are dealing with a crime problem and the public wants something done about it. <- yes, that was covered too. May 11 11:17
DaemonFC Well, you can determine that if we ban margarine, then nobody will get a divorce. May 11 11:17
DaemonFC You'd be wrong, but if you prattle off statistics, that would be the way to solve a huge problem. May 11 11:17

DaemonFC If you look at how stupid the average criminal is....right.... May 11 11:18
DaemonFC I mean, they try to punch a cop and run away and they think they'll get away. May 11 11:18
matey the criminal justice system is just like windows May 11 11:19
matey if it works properly, thats a bug, its not by design May 11 11:19

DaemonFC Stallman compared shedding COVID masks to not brushing your teeth and accepting that you'd lose most of them in a few years. May 11 11:25
DaemonFC But people who are missing their teeth because they didn't brush aren't operating on that level, obviously. May 11 11:25

DaemonFC You get rid of 30-40% of the criminals somehow, crime falls. It's inevitable. May 11 11:29
DaemonFC To say nothing of the fact that the sooner they get what's coming to them, the less women they impregnate and the less broken homes and bad genes go on to create another crop. May 11 11:30

DaemonFC MinceR, Whitewalls might look okay on my Buick, but they cost a lot of money now. May 11 15:58
DaemonFC Not much demand for them. Nobody drives anything classy anymore. May 11 15:58
DaemonFC So the market is mostly for classic cars. May 11 15:59
DaemonFC This country has gone full on "cheap shit made in Mexico" or China. May 11 15:59
DaemonFC Even the cars. May 11 15:59
DaemonFC The funnier part than the DeLorean on whitewalls is Dr. Brown buying Marty a very flamboyant looking 1950s retro-futuristic cowboy costume to wear in 1885. May 11 16:01
DaemonFC MinceR, Of course, they may have gotten time travel wrong. Marty McFly should have been safe in the past even though he was a relic from a deleted timeline, until he repaired it. May 11 16:02
DaemonFC If he is a non-event in the 1955 timeline, then he can't change the past, thus his parents get together like they were meant to, and he exists again. May 11 16:02
MinceR time travel in movies usually doesn't make sense May 11 16:02
DaemonFC Since this creates a paradox where both can't be true, it would be easier to just say that he's created an alternate universe in which he is matter that is an event in the spacetime of that universe from the point that he emerged from the primary universe. May 11 16:03
DaemonFC Thus, it doesn't matter if he's ever born or not because he'll still exist in the alternate 1955. May 11 16:03
DaemonFC Worse yet, that means that the Hellish 1985 where Biff screwed up the timeline still exists, otherwise he could not have emerged from it. Which means that alternate 1985 Biff is still there beating and raping his mother, even though Marty no longer exists there. May 11 16:05

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-badges.fedoraproject.org | Fedora Badges May 11 16:07
DaemonFC The only part of the timeline that would be canonical to all future timelines would be 1955, up until the point that the original Marty emerged from the primary 1985. Even then, the third movie screws that up because they change things again in 1885. So there are now alternate 1955s leading to alternate 1985s and alternate 2015s. May 11 16:07
DaemonFC So Doc Brown is correct in the second movie that 1955 is a nexus that has cosmic significance, until it doesn't anymore, and the nexus point moves to 1885 in the third movie. May 11 16:08

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.tuxmachines.org | Red Hat: OpenShift, Keynotes, and RHEL 9 Released | Tux Machines May 11 16:10
DaemonFC And the third movie ignores completely that Doc Brown in 1955 learning about everything that would happen in the future would inevitably change his decisions leading up to the accident that sent him to 1885 in the first place, thus negating the need to unbury the DeLorean and go back to 1885.

DaemonFC MinceR, Time travel does not make sense. No. May 11 16:10

activelow tied to carbon emission budgets, yet those budgets are not intended to cope with "climate change", it is both a cash grabbing taxation scam and redistribution-mechanism May 11 16:45
activelow and within germany, it is mostly "west germany" and their demographics, which, whatever this is, isn't what i would recognize as german May 11 16:46
activelow and it is them, the west, who cause 90% of emissions May 11 16:46

XRevan86 The outside-of-Russia perspective is going to be different as people outside won't have to live in the ruins that Putin will leave behind. May 11 21:07

DaemonFC Well, yeah. It costs the Russians $3-5 million per tank, and you can blow up the tank with a $200,000 missile. And we're GIVING them the missiles so we can sit back and go LULZ when they blow up all those $3-5 million Russian tanks. May 11 21:15
DaemonFC Sometimes not even a $200,000 missile. May 11 21:16
DaemonFC Those switchblade drones don't cost much, but they can take out a tank, they can swoop down and blow up some Russian troops while they're sleeping, they can take out APCs... May 11 21:16
DaemonFC If the Russians are stupid enough to dock one of their ships at port or be close to the shore, you can use suicide drones on those too. May 11 21:17

XRevan86 schestowitz: Putin's view on peace is surrender. May 11 21:22

DaemonFC The Russians always cut corners when it comes to nuclear safety and then they get a disaster, or multiple disasters. May 11 21:24
DaemonFC They proved that they can't handle nuclear power because they're incompetent and cheap. May 11 21:24
DaemonFC And their government has a habit of simply classifying the design defects and punishing anyone who won't cooperate with the cover-up. May 11 21:25
tux its topdown incompetence May 11 21:25
DaemonFC The US nuclear incidents have tended to be mild because our stuff was designed to fail safe. May 11 21:25

DaemonFC I told my mom I named the Impala "Muffy". She asked why I call it that. I said, "In the James Bond movie, Goldeneye, he meets a contact living in Saint Petersburg who drives an old Lada that barely works that he has to start with by tapping the starter motor, and he says "It's an ugly little bitch, but it gets me where I need to go.". Bond asks, "Muffy?" because he sees a tattoo on the guy's butt cheek while he's trying to get the Lada to work, May 11 21:38

DaemonFC And they're not rich, they just rack up debt, get sued, and have to work 70 hour weeks for debt service. May 11 21:43
DaemonFC Then they brag about how much and how hard they work, like that's anything to be PROUD of. Why the fuck should you want to work so you can pour the effort directly into the toilet and have no time? May 11 21:44

DaemonFC " Their user-space software is remaining closed-source but as of today they have formally opened up their Linux GPU kernel modules and will be maintaining it moving forward." May 11 21:58

activelow another troublemaker is mupdf which i hoped for can remain to view PDF on framebuffer console, already downgraded this one to a 10year old version to remove undesireable dependencies... May 11 23:13
bnchs activelow, mupdf has 2 versions though May 11 23:16
activelow bnchs: which versions? May 11 23:18
bnchs opengl renderer one May 11 23:18
bnchs and x11 (i think) one May 11 23:18
activelow i see, i thought it used /dev/fb0 (fbcon)... May 11 23:19
activelow seems the dependencies of image viewers always, lock into APIs of proprietary/malicious components, such as the GPU crap inside kernel (DRM), X11 which is related May 11 23:19
bnchs but it can be written to render to anything May 11 23:19
bnchs and because of that, it got ported to consoles that don't support either of those APIs like the playstation portable and nintendo wii May 11 23:20
activelow i can convert images into sixels, convert pdf into text (pdf sucks anyway), libsdl1 can use fbcon driver... so i won't need any opengl,x11 proprietary/malicious APIs anymore May 11 23:20
activelow meaning i can keep the entire multimedia fun, audio/video/images _without_ any libdrm/opengl/x11 May 11 23:21
activelow which is how it should be, on *nix May 11 23:22
activelow next on todo is vt-switchign with mplayer-1.4/libsdl1/fbcon... prboom/libsdl1/fbcon already works absolutely flawless May 11 23:22
activelow too i'll check if i can pick a 256color mode for /dev/fb0, because 256 color palette is sufficient, images look _very_ good, and reducing framebuffer to 8bit(16bit) color palette is _much_ faster May 11 23:23
activelow i'll render sixels into 256 colors only, no noticable difference compared to 16bit or 32bit truecolor May 11 23:24
