[00:01]	TR Bot	 Dumb phones are on the rise in the U.S. as Gen Z limits screen time
[00:02]	eidolon	a bevy of articles
[00:02]	MinceR	inb4 gen z realizes nokia 3310-s have screens
[00:03]	MinceR	are those even compatible with remaining networks? i think we only have LTE and 5G NR here
[00:05]	eidolon	I don't think so, at least in US
[00:05]	eidolon	they rebooted this phone some years ago
[00:06]	MinceR	yeah, there's a KaiOS-based version
[00:06]	eidolon	it may have seen some upgrades for gen z, or it may have just been for emerging markets elsewhere
[00:06]	MinceR	judging by the 8110 4G, they're probably all shit
[00:06]	MinceR	with nearly unusable buttons and horrible UI design
[00:06]	MinceR	the 8110 4G has a d-pad i can barely press with a thumbnail if i'm really careful and they use it for everything
[00:07]	MinceR	you can't set the alarm by typing in numbers, you're forced to use the d-pad
[00:07]	MinceR	my Samsung SGH-C100 could do that properly, and it had a usable d-pad
[00:30]	DaemonFC	right to be forgotten with google isn't that useful.
[00:30]	eidolon	hah, then there are articles, "Why is Gen Z obsessed with old digital cameras?" or likewise with Polaroid Instants
[00:30]	eidolon	or vinyls, or cassettes
[00:30]	DaemonFC	Although you can claim to be in the EU it only affects EU search results.
[00:31]	DaemonFC	If EU citizens want search results that aren't affected by this, then they can just jump on a VPN and use the US version of Google.
[00:32]	DaemonFC	A prolific child molester in the US that was exposed by the Kiwi Farms used Right to Be Forgotten on EU Google.
[00:32]	DaemonFC	They lied about being an EU citizen and Google yanked all the stuff they wanted removed.
[00:32]	DaemonFC	But it's still in the Google results shown to people in other areas of the world.
[00:32]	DaemonFC	So they didn't actually accomplish much.

[00:33]	DaemonFC	The Kiwi Farms isn't all bad. Often they expose people who are horrific criminals, even worse than Peter Bright.
[00:33]	DaemonFC	And those people don't like it so they say they're being deadnamed or something.

[00:34]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Apple has been by far the worst platform to try to run SeaMonkey on.

[00:35]	DaemonFC	It's not even always just platform changes and API removals.
[00:35]	DaemonFC	Sometimes it's bugs in Mac OS they introduce and then don't fix for years.
[00:36]	DaemonFC	A while back, Mac OS users were stuck on an old version of SeaMonkey for like 4 release cycles because Apple introduced a bug in the fonts system that caused a crash.
[00:36]	TR News	I tried Mastodon gemini://qwel.smol.pub/i-tried-mastodon
[00:36]	DaemonFC	They never fixed it. SeaMonkey finally picked up a workaround.

[00:37]	DaemonFC	schestowitz I really need to make a XUL extension that registers gemini:// and redirects to this proxy in SeaMonkey.
[00:38]	DaemonFC	I could. XUL extensions were not that bad to make, especially something this simple.
[00:38]	DaemonFC	Plus it would give me an excuse to blog about it and use the "ZUUUUUUUUUUUUL!!!!!" gif from ghostbusters.

[00:39]	MinceR	isn't gemini simple enough to just implement it in seamonkey, instead of relying on a proxy that could go down at any time?

[00:43]	DaemonFC	Yes, waste of time. And administrators make it worse with arbitrary bans.
[00:43]	DaemonFC	Mozilla Social collapsed because their rules were even more ridiculous than average.
[00:43]	DaemonFC	Even the censorship on most instances allows naked people as long as it's behind a content warning or something. Mozilla's ToS says it's only acceptable under limited circumstances, such as "breastfeeding".
[00:43]	DaemonFC	Which probably nobody actually wants to see, unless they're into that.
[00:43]	DaemonFC	Interestingly, they did not specify that the person being breastfed had to be a baby. And they actually said "breastfeeding", which is sure to aggravate some people. :)

[00:50]	schestowitz	it's written in perl
[00:50]	schestowitz	we might bring it back online some day
[00:50]	DaemonFC	I guess I could register Gemini with SeaMonkey and make it open LaGrange.
[00:50]	schestowitz	but the coder thinks it discourages properly using gemini

[00:52]	TR Bot	 Techrights The Web Has Become Chrome
[00:53]	DaemonFC	No mention of SeaMonkey and how it falls hopelessly behind no matter what it adds because Google and the people who rush to implement Chromeisms are always off to the new shiny faster than it can be ported over?
[00:54]	DaemonFC	We had enough "Web technologies" to do all the important things and then some long ago. Ideally it would basically be HTML 4/CSS 2 and maybe some codecs.

[04:20]	DaemonFC	It doesn't "not run" anything I need.
[04:21]	schestowitz	yes
[04:21]	DaemonFC	I ordered a new power adapter.
[04:21]	DaemonFC	This one seems to have a wire issue.
[04:21]	DaemonFC	But the replacement was an improved design and on sale for $38.
[04:25]	DaemonFC	schestowitz Some of the Kiwi Farms issues apparently stem from New Zealand claiming that it's illegal to talk about a mass shooting that they had.
[04:25]	DaemonFC	Normal people wait a while and get over shit.
[04:26]	DaemonFC	There's no law in the US against discussing all the people that died on September 11th.
[04:26]	DaemonFC	So New Zealand is going around threatening to prosecute people for talking about a mass shooting that happened there.
[04:26]	DaemonFC	And harassing Internet Service Providers based on some retard New Zealand law.
[04:28]	DaemonFC	How is it illegal to discuss the Christchurch shooting?
[04:28]	schestowitz	i reecall reading about that
[04:29]	schestowitz	but forgot the finer details
[04:29]	DaemonFC	Are they really that butthurt that despite being a shithole with non-US English-speaking country-type laws that someone got a gun and managed that?
[04:29]	DaemonFC	Fucking idiots.
[04:30]	DaemonFC	schestowitz They also falsely accuse Kiwi Farms of being involved in the shootings because the guy created an account and posted some thing like anyone can.
[04:31]	DaemonFC	Moon gave their government all the information that it asked for. None of it had anything to do with the shooting.
[04:31]	DaemonFC	schestowitz So, disfigured sex pests, child molesters, and New Zealand are trying to shut down KF.
[04:31]	DaemonFC	:)
[04:31]	DaemonFC	That's quite some list of enemies.

[04:34]	DaemonFC	Child molesters are probably like one notch down from the Holocaust camp Nazis.
[04:34]	DaemonFC	I mean, they're almost the worst thing that humankind has to offer.
[04:35]	DaemonFC	This world used to have a little bit of decency in it. When the US soldiers saw what the guards at the camps were doing, they couldn't hold it back. They shot the Nazis after they surrendered. Just shot 'em. Or handed them over to the Jews to be stomped into the ground.
[04:35]	DaemonFC	And Patton didn't prosecute them for it because, who would?
[04:36]	DaemonFC	The rationale was "Who could witness such a thing and be responsible for their actions upon seeing it?"
[04:36]	schestowitz	anyway, i never saw KF
[04:36]	schestowitz	nor  did rianne
[04:36]	schestowitz	and better not to bring that up

[04:37]	schestowitz	anyway, back to tech
[04:37]	schestowitz	or net issues
[04:37]	DaemonFC	They wouldn't like me much from the looks of it.
[04:37]	schestowitz	it's wrong to ban discussions because it does nto work
[04:37]	DaemonFC	I'm not the lowest on their shitlist though.
[04:37]	schestowitz	and it suppresses dialogue
[04:37]	DaemonFC	That's how conservatives tend to be.
[04:37]	schestowitz	in my experience

[04:38]	schestowitz	1) you cannot prevent people talking
[04:38]	DaemonFC	Trannies? Not so much.
[04:38]	schestowitz	2) trying to would backfire
[04:38]	schestowitz	3) people who try to prevent talking fear they cannot win the debate
[04:38]	schestowitz	4) the only way to "win" it to prevent discussion
[04:38]	schestowitz	5) dogma relies on abandoning facts
[04:39]	schestowitz	there is nothing new about gays and cross-dressing
[04:39]	schestowitz	it's very old stuff
[04:39]	DaemonFC	There's very little at stake for the ruling class in the US for letting insane people run around with a bunch of assault rifles.

[04:41]	DaemonFC	That's one of the reasons the judges are soft on crime. They live in a gated community away from homeless encampments, nutcases with an AR15, and other than the fence and barbed wire protecting their home and swimming pool and tennis court and everything, they have private security armed with guns.

[04:50]	DaemonFC	I get there being a tradition of French in like one State (Louisiana) and that's the only exception we should ever make to English-only.

[06:34]	DaemonFC	Normally the "sick fuck" in question should have already been dealt with 6-7 times by then, but that would be expecting results from a State government.
[06:34]	DaemonFC	:)
[06:34]	DaemonFC	And lately a lot of the sick fucks shooting children or people in a church are Trannies that had the cheese slide totally off their cracker.
[06:34]	DaemonFC	(And people say they're harmless.)
[06:35]	DaemonFC	The one behind the "Trans Lifeline" that suicided a few years ago apparently didn't give their parents enough of a middle finger from that and decided they were a "trans woman Muslim" as well.

[06:36]	DaemonFC	Show me ONE Muslim country in the world that won't kill you for being a tranny.
[06:36]	DaemonFC	You can't. They're barbarians.
[06:37]	DaemonFC	I don't want them to die, I don't want them to be oppressed, or denied a job or housing. There is a difference between a personal opinion and being harmful to someone.
[06:37]	DaemonFC	I don't advocate anything except a better mental healthcare system and a stronger economy.
[06:37]	DaemonFC	And I think if you got that there'd be less of them anyway.
[06:37]	DaemonFC	But nobody wants to fix anything.
[06:38]	DaemonFC	It wasn't illegal to be trans in the 90s, there just hardly were any back then.
[06:38]	DaemonFC	People were better adjusted because the social safety nets and the economy were better.
[06:38]	schestowitz	can we get back to tech now?
[06:38]	DaemonFC	So it confused the hell out of people, but you didn't see a lot of it.

[06:40]	DaemonFC	That's one of the reasons for the budgetary disaster.
[06:40]	DaemonFC	But it's only one reason.
[06:41]	DaemonFC	Trying to branch out into products nobody was going to pay for and didn't want, and acquiring a "bullshitter engine" and putting $40 million into it surely did not help.

[21:23]	Sompi	all those analyses are wrong :(
[21:24]	DaemonFC	"When Ars visited Air Canada's website on Friday, there appeared to be no chatbot support available, suggesting that Air Canada has disabled the chatbot."
[21:24]	DaemonFC	:)
[21:24]	DaemonFC	Welp, so much for chatbots.
[21:24]	MinceR	surprisingly, even when on a wrong path, the AI often got the correct result :>
[21:25]	MinceR	especially the final one
[21:25]	DaemonFC	Maybe I should go engineer a prompt on the car dealer's Web site offering to sell me the car real cheap at zero interest.
[21:25]	DaemonFC	And then enforce it on them since they agreed to do it.
[21:28]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I was reading more about Pale Moon.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	According to "MoonChild", there are scores of security problems specifically related to Firefox's e10s (multi-process) that Pale Moon never had to deal with because it can't occur in single-process mode.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	At one point, they gave up and dropped tens of thousands of lines of code related to Mac OS only to put most of it back when a new maintainer stepped up.
[21:30]	DaemonFC	I don't know who uses Pale Moon or SeaMonkey on a Mac.
[21:30]	DaemonFC	The best thing about Pale Moon is you can still use XUL.
[21:30]	Sompi	Many websites explicitly detect Firefox forks that don't use multithreading, and then refuse to work on a "non-multiprocessing version of Firefox"
[21:30]	DaemonFC	Really?
[21:31]	DaemonFC	Well that sucks.
[21:31]	Sompi	I don't know how they do that
[21:31]	arkanian	multiprocessing adds security
[21:32]	DaemonFC	Then what is he referring to? A bunch of race conditions or something?

[21:33]	Sompi	More code usually equals to less security
[21:34]	arkanian	if these issues are introduced by downgrading to a single process model, then multiprocess was doing its job
[21:34]	arkanian	process isolation works
[21:35]	Sompi	Is it really multiprocessing or just multithreading?
[21:35]	DaemonFC	Process isolation is only as good as what the broker process can manage given the host operating system.
[21:36]	DaemonFC	On Windows that's usually not very good.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	The collection and severity of the Windows-only CVEs in Mozilla browsers is much longer and worse than it is for any other platform.
[21:39]	psydroid2	Windows exposes its vulnerabilities with Swiss precision
[21:39]	DaemonFC	Mozilla even adds a vulnerability to Windows itself.
[21:40]	DaemonFC	The OS is such a piece of shit that they have to install a system service to make sure Firefox can update itself.
[21:41]	DaemonFC	Pale Moon is working surprisingly well considering they have to graft new web platform support onto a very old Firefox fork.
[21:42]	DaemonFC	In some ways, the browser is faster, but it's not really built around "web apps".
[21:42]	arkanian	I'd rather just use a good browser, like Brave
[21:43]	MinceR	no good browsers exist
[21:43]	Sompi	Firefox was good when the year was 2008

[21:59]	DaemonFC	He'll get through it like Mitchell Baker does.
[21:59]	DaemonFC	Round of layoffs. Double his own salary again.
[21:59]	DaemonFC	It's important to move as much money away from the company and to the CEO as possible on the way to bankruptcy court.
● Feb 16
[22:00]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Mozilla only has a new CEO because Baker didn't want to officially have the company fail with herself at the helm.
[22:00]	DaemonFC	A trustee would just ask too many questions like "Why did you keep giving yourself raises every year while the company was becoming unglued.
[22:01]	DaemonFC	Letting someone else be the CEO for the last several years sidesteps this problem.

[23:14]	arkanian	+Sompi | I want a good web browser that does not have rust in its codebase 
[23:14]	arkanian	do you have a legit problem with rust?
[23:17]	DaemonFC	That does work too.
[23:17]	DaemonFC	[2/16/24 5:14 pm] <arkanian> do you have a legit problem with rust?
[23:18]	DaemonFC	There's no stable version of it, it breaks all the time, and the major feature seems to be to make life harder if you even want to compile the program.
[23:18]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: I asked Debian about packaging SeaMonkey.
[23:18]	DaemonFC	I don't think I'd do that, officially.
[23:18]	DaemonFC	Unofficially, maybe. Their rules about packaging are not going to be possible to comply with.
[23:19]	DaemonFC	They want a copyright status on every single file.
[23:19]	DaemonFC	They don't just take the project's word for it that it's good (unless it's Chromium and not even Google knows what the license is on hundreds of files....then it's fine).
[23:19]	DaemonFC	:)
[23:20]	DaemonFC	Google's approach to licensing tends to be "We're doing it and we dare anyone to say anything." or "We paid a vendor to help us pretend not to know that this isn't okay."
[23:20]	DaemonFC	:D
[23:21]	DaemonFC	Again, perfectly fine in Debian I guess.
[23:22]	arkanian	DaemonFC: do you have a degree in programming?
[23:23]	MinceR	i didn't realize a degree in "programming" was necessary to give one the right to have a problem with rust

[23:23]	DaemonFC	I don't avoid all programs that use Rust. I'll just be god damned if I'm going to figure out how to compile them.
[23:23]	DaemonFC	If someone else wants to declare they'll keep it functional I may use it.
[23:24]	DaemonFC	But I generally consider it a positive if a program has "no rust" or "no rust as official policy".
[23:24]		*eidolon has quit (Quit: )
[23:24]	arkanian	Well he doesn't write Rust, so what does it matter?

[23:25]	arkanian	He doesn't need a degree in programming but I don't think he has written a single line of code.
[23:25]	DaemonFC	No, _I_ have to deal with Rust Rot Brain among the developers of some really nasty software.
[23:25]	DaemonFC	Like Mozilla.
[23:26]	DaemonFC	Who keep going on and on about this fucking pile of shit that they're proud of while Firefox manages to consume several GB of RAM where it should consume less than half that for what it's got running.
[23:27]	DaemonFC	It's pretty clear that something has gone very wrong if it's using twice the memory of Chrome and it's slower.
[23:27]	DaemonFC	:)
[23:28]	DaemonFC	MoonChild at least drops the code that he isn't using. Like Telemetry, advertisements, e10s, and all this other bullshit.
[23:28]	DaemonFC	There are opportunities to optimize low hanging fruit that Mozilla has never bothered with.
[23:29]	DaemonFC	They're off somewhere else just mindlessly copying Chrome in only twice the RAM requirements.
[23:29]	DaemonFC	https://old.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/comments/1asizj2/my_water_bottle_shrank_after_putting_it_in_the/
[23:29]	TR Bot	 My water bottle shrank after putting it in the dishwasher : mildlyinteresting
[23:29]	MinceR	well, i'm pretty sure i've written several lines of code before i got my degrees
[23:29]	DaemonFC	Well, it's obvious that it could be repurposed now.
[23:30]	MinceR	hell, i'm pretty sure writing several lines of code was part of the process of getting them :>
[23:30]	arkanian	MinceR: not you
[23:30]	MinceR	i'm not a rust fan either, though
[23:30]	arkanian	MinceR: you're not the one spamming inane stuff
[23:31]	MinceR	i'm pretty sure i've criticized rust here before
[23:31]	schestowitz	<arkanian> DaemonFC: do you have a degree in programming?
[23:31]	schestowitz	there is usually no such thing
[23:31]	arkanian	schestowitz: I meant computer science
[23:31]	schestowitz	unless you go to diploma mills
[23:31]	DaemonFC	I have a PO Box and I live near a high crime area.
[23:31]	schestowitz	there is soft end and comp sci
[23:32]	MinceR	in any case, gatekeeping with degrees is particularly irritating
[23:32]	schestowitz	so they teach otherr impoirtant things
[23:32]	DaemonFC	I should become a CEO of something and get a grant from Mozilla to come in and make their workplace more hostile.
[23:32]	schestowitz	such as networking and how computers work
[23:32]	DaemonFC	That pays much better than being a programmer, apparently.
[23:32]	schestowitz	if you teach people only how to code, they will have misonceptions and code poorly
[23:33]	DaemonFC	I think few are in any danger from "AI" or whatever you want to call that. The news keeps saying it is a threat. Something that doesn't know that 250 is a smaller number than 1,000 and that 12.5 is smaller than 25.
[23:33]	schestowitz	it's not clear why baker paid herself so much
[23:33]	schestowitz	she muist be late 60s
[23:34]	schestowitz	and she talks of "community"
[23:34]	DaemonFC	Also, I've shown it code examples where I knew what I was looking at and why it did that, and then it didn't.
[23:34]	schestowitz	so her mind is  bad
[23:34]	schestowitz	if she hoards moneyt
[23:34]	schestowitz	esp. at that age
[23:34]	schestowitz	_in spite_ of strong ciriticism
[23:34]	DaemonFC	It told me how to rewrite some parts of LAME, but from looking at what it did I knew it wouldn't compile.
[23:34]	MinceR	computer systems doing the wrong thing can also be a threat :>
[23:34]	schestowitz	not even zemlin pays himself THAT much
[23:34]	DaemonFC	The parts that might have compiled would have been very wrong.
[23:34]	DaemonFC	It's amazing how much money they pour into something this bad.
[23:35]	DaemonFC	If you got it to compile, the bitstream format would not have been a valid MP3 file.
[23:35]	schestowitz	admfubar: re rust
[23:35]	DaemonFC	But it did clear out some of the ugliness of the code, so that's what matters. :P
[23:35]	schestowitz	arkanian: 
[23:35]	schestowitz	i can lay out the issues
[23:36]	schestowitz	i can lay out what's wrong with rust
[23:36]	schestowitz	legal, technical logevitty
[23:36]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: This is the same model that Microsoft uses for "CoPilot".
[23:36]	schestowitz	we covered that many times over the years
[23:36]	DaemonFC	And it doesn't even know what it's looking at.
[23:36]	DaemonFC	Even when you show it the entire file and tell it what it is
[23:36]	schestowitz	]and you can find long articles and videos in techrights about itt
[23:36]	admfubar	roy.. what is this in regards to
[23:36]	schestowitz	admfubar: wrong highlight
[23:36]	schestowitz	two names with "a"
[23:37]	admfubar	:P
[23:37]	schestowitz	we'll need to sort our the IRC certs
[23:37]	schestowitz	some people's clients moan about this, should be fixed in a number of hours
[23:38]	schestowitz	*sort out
[23:38]	admfubar	you nee a cert sort...
[23:38]	arkanian	sudo certbot renew
[23:38]	arkanian	done
[23:38]	schestowitz	the fake sec mindset
[23:39]	admfubar	write it in rust... let it corrode in place
[23:39]	schestowitz	wherein if some time on a binary bit is past data, then OMG!!! Get out! DANGER!
[23:39]	schestowitz	even malware writers can get a free cert
[23:39]	schestowitz	so you know it's not really about security
[23:40]	admfubar	isnt that nice for them..
[23:40]	schestowitz	but  about asking some other parry or parties for "permission"
[23:40]	arkanian	how else would you use encryption?
[23:40]	admfubar	well this is nice of them!   https://go.theregister.com/feed/www.theregister.com/2024/02/16/ftc_ai_fakes/
[23:40]	TR Bot	 FTC asks the public if they'd like AI fakes protection The Register
[23:40]	MinceR	any CA can sign a certificate with any CN in its Subject
[23:41]	schestowitz	<arkanian> how else would you use encryption?
[23:41]	schestowitz	many ways
[23:41]	MinceR	any state can force CA-s within its borders to do it for them
[23:41]	schestowitz	could get the public key from the domain
[23:41]	schestowitz	rather than rely on a "pentagon chain"
[23:41]	MinceR	there's some method to help find out after the fact, though
[23:41]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: Not only can it be a known compromised certificate, but it can also be past its date when signing a component, and in certain cases Windows will run it and trust it anyway.
[23:42]	DaemonFC	Not just "past its date and in some sort of 90 day grace period". In some cases 10 years later.
[23:42]	DaemonFC	And being used to sign new things after it expired.
