[00:16] DaemonFC One of the big parts of the rental car industry is selling the ones you're done with. [00:17] DaemonFC So if the EVs don't hold at least about the same percentage of their value as a similarly aged gasoline car with similar mileage, then you can lose a lot of money there. [00:17] DaemonFC And if they have more breakdowns, cost more to fix, and are out of service longer, they cost a lot of money there. [00:17] DaemonFC So it makes sense to fire the idiot that bought 100,000 of them and hire someone else and replace most of them with gasoline powered cars.

[00:18] DaemonFC If he had purchased 5,000-10,000 and determined that it was not feasible on a larger scale, he'd still be the CEO.

[00:19] DaemonFC It didn't just cause them to lose a lot to depreciation, repairs, and out-of-service vehicles. [00:19] DaemonFC They put in fast chargers at many more Hertz stations that they will now have to do something with. [00:20] DaemonFC With a rollout 5-10% this size, they wouldn't have had to put in all those expensive chargers to assess the market. [00:20] TR News "And seeing as it does seem to be capable of web connections... one idea i have is absolutely a gemini browser, gemini plus picotron, match made in heaven." gemini://thilosaur.flounder.online/gemlog/2024-03-16.gmi [00:21] TR News "His parents had borrowed money from a bunch of family members so that he could yuhak in the United States." gemini://kang.smol.pub/yuhak [00:21] DaemonFC schestowitz: They could have forced people to return them to another Hertz location with EV chargers and then they wouldn't have had to deal with a car that shows up, 10% charge remaining, and no chargers at that location. [00:21] DaemonFC This was a disaster. [00:21] TR News "Four or five people in my life commit one of the, in my not so humble opinion, unpardonable sins of internet usage, THEY USE AN OVERABUNDANCE OF CAPITAL LETTERS IN EVERYTHING THAT THEY DO." gemini://jimmorgan.smol.pub/1710631724 [00:22] DaemonFC This was a full scale rollout as if these are proven technology with similar characteristics to proven technology. And they aren't. [00:22] DaemonFC Internal combustion engines are a proven technology. It would be reckless to abandon them.

Without any modesty I have nothing new to say that has not already been better said by others." gemini://jimmorgan.smol.pub/1710613042 [00:23] DaemonFC schestowitz: Some accomodations at a naturalization interview are fine, others are "I wouldn't do that if I were you." [00:23] DaemonFC Like if you tell them "I have a hearing implant. Could you please speak loudly and clearly?" that's fine. [00:24] DaemonFC But if someone goes in there saying they have a mental disorder that prevents them from taking an easy civics test, they're likely to give you a Notice of Intent to Deny. [00:24] DaemonFC USCIS does not want that. But lots of people are a little hard of hearing. [00:26] DaemonFC They get really skeptical about people who say they need a waiver for the English and Civics tests. We don't need one. But I got curious and looked at the form someone would use for that. [00:27] DaemonFC It makes them go to a doctor. The doctor has to elaborate on why you need the waiver and they have to tell USCIS what kind of a doctor they are, what test they used and why they determined you need a waiver, and they have to sign it.

[03:27]	TR News	Techrights will be covering Debian scandals a lot until some time in autumn. The goal is not to "bash" Debian (our server and desktops use Debian), but to highlight internal issues, hoping this can lead to a solution.
[03:28]	TR News	Debian is _mostly_ - but not only - community-run distro. Microsoft and Google bribe and influence it via SPI 'donations' and MS (Mark ShuttleCoC) is controlling it by poaching the devs he 'fancies'. These MUST NOT be taboo subject. It is something EVERYONE needs to known UPFRONT.
[03:28]	TR News	(to know)
[03:29]	TR News	These Debian issues are NOT even unique to Debian. They serve to highlight how corporations besiege Freedom-centric technical communities.
[03:30]	TR News	Meanwhile, Elana Hamasman, who managed the anti-RMS petition in Microsoft's GitHub, went to work for Apple. Did she really care about the FSF or is she just some filthy terrorist who uses technical means to do the terrorism?
[03:32]	TR News	Debian is still the "base" of most important GNU/Linux distros. The people implicitly "in charge" of Debian work for companies, and not always 'tasteful' companies. It's important to understand whose money controls the project. Many of the servers are totally controlled by Gulag Inc.

[20:37]	DaemonFC	> [05:15]   schestowitz: FINALLY this laptop touch screen works well under KDE.
[20:37]	DaemonFC	> [05:15]  wayland issue>?
[20:37]	DaemonFC	> [05:15]  or plasma (6)?
[20:37]	DaemonFC	It worked fine under GNOME years ago even under X.
[20:38]	DaemonFC	Plasma 6 fixes all the problems it had under KDE.
[20:40]	DaemonFC	Unfortunately, Intel's mitigations are making it slower, so I turned them all off.
[20:41]	DaemonFC	I'm not really doing anything with that laptop that requires paranoia level security.
[20:41]	DaemonFC	The worst that could maybe happen is if Duolingo decides to slip in specially crafted malware, and even then they wouldn't get much.
[20:41]	DaemonFC	The rest is just software that runs locally, so if that's compromised, you're screwed anyway.
[20:42]	DaemonFC	The chip mitigations are not worth ~25% of the CPU's performance.
[20:44]	DaemonFC	They're getting better at working around the performance impact of these but the cumulative effect is still a major slowdown.
[20:45]	DaemonFC	And as software demands get higher, and the laptop is not getting newer...
[20:49]	DaemonFC	MinceR: It would be nice to just have modules uploaded to your brain like The Matrix.
[20:50]	DaemonFC	"Whoa. I know German, and how to fly a helicopter, and Kung Fu! SEHR GUT!!!!!"
[20:51]	DaemonFC	Part of me wonders whether such a thing would have any negative effects on a person's brain.
[20:51]	DaemonFC	I mean, you can only know so much I'm sure.
[20:51]	MinceR	Johnny Mnemonic?
[20:52]	DaemonFC	Another Keanu Reeves movie if I'm not mistaken.
[20:52]	MinceR	indeed
[20:53]	DaemonFC	It takes a year to be decent with a language like this. A year. How long does it take to be good at flying a helicopter?

[21:12]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I was talking to mom about Nazi Germany and what was really screwing up their economy. The Nazi leadership itself went and took on loans at well past Junk interest rates to fund rearmament.
[21:13]	DaemonFC	From American bankers, even. Who never got into any trouble for it.
[21:13]	DaemonFC	Russia can borrow at 8-9%. Hitler was borrowing at closer to 40% sometimes.
[21:13]	DaemonFC	So there's that.
[21:14]	DaemonFC	He wasn't sehr klug. 
[21:15]	DaemonFC	He was verrckt. Not just that, but bergeschnappt. Totally bergeschnappt.
[21:15]	DaemonFC	They should have invested more heavily in U-Boats.
[21:16]	DaemonFC	They could have built many for the cost of the V weapons and that idiotic super gun that was supposedly going to fire shells over into Britain.
[21:16]	DaemonFC	Just some more U-Boats out there sending all the supplies to the bottom of the ocean would have broken them.

[21:38]	MinceR	afaik wolfenstein 3-d did not store any audio in the .exe, it was in audiot.wl? and audiohed.wl?
[21:39]	DaemonFC	This time, Firefox was even worse than the last time I looked at it. In addition to the sponsored crap and whatnot, it brings up Amazon products as you type and even shows images of them in the address bar.

[22:43]	DaemonFC	When you were learning English, did you try inserting English words into a sentence that was mostly Hungarian?
[22:43]	MinceR	i can't remember

[22:44]	DaemonFC	Cat is katze cats is katzen, but I can't recall kitten.

[22:44]	DaemonFC	If not precise.
[22:45]	MinceR	Ktzchen (de) n, Ktzlein (de) n, Katzenbaby (de) n, (Austrian, South German) Katzerl n, (Swiss) Ktzli n.
[22:45]	DaemonFC	Small cats. Well, kittens are small cats.
[22:45]	DaemonFC	But you could just be saying a cat that is small.
[22:46]	DaemonFC	So better to use Ktzchen.
[22:46]	MinceR	more young than small
[22:47]	DaemonFC	Die jungen katzen.
[22:48]	MinceR	Die junge Katzen
[22:48]	DaemonFC	Ich liebe meine katzen.
[22:49]	MinceR	nouns are capitalized
[22:49]	DaemonFC	Yeah, that's true.
[22:49]	DaemonFC	Specific cats.
[22:49]	DaemonFC	Not cats in a general sense of the word.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	I got a solar watch charger and sent it to the Amazon locker. There were a bunch of bums hanging out there so I parked over in the lot and handed Mandy my wallet, keys, and phone and just memorized the code to open the locker.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	It's getting hard to hide how bad the economy is getting.
[22:53]	MinceR	they're capitalized even if it's cats in the general sense
[22:53]	DaemonFC	So they just lie about it in the news to mislead people who are lucky enough to not live near it, and make them think they'll be okay for sure.
[22:53]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I don't know why they don't do anything about all these homeless people. President Clark says there's a job for everyone who wants one.
[22:53]	DaemonFC	;)
[22:55]	MinceR	who's that?
[22:57]	DaemonFC	From Babylon 5. Some people from Earth were in Brown Sector and came across a bunch of homeless people.
[22:58]	DaemonFC	And mindlessly regurgitated propaganda from the administration, saying there wasn't anything wrong with the economy, these people just didn't want to work.
[22:58]	DaemonFC	As a child I laughed and said, "Oh, Republicans."
[22:59]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Here's how my parents see Biden. The economy is horrible. The inflation is hyperinflation. We're losing jobs and everything was better under Trump, but the unemployment is high because nobody wants to work.
● Mar 17
[23:00]	DaemonFC	If Trump comes back, the inflation and job loss and horrible economy will stop existing the minute he's sworn in (because they won't say anything about it no matter how bad it gets) and when people have no job it's because they don't want to work.

[23:05]	DaemonFC	Companies have just fired all their customer service people and don't want you to talk to them.
[23:05]	MinceR	that's a lot cheaper
[23:05]	MinceR	on the short term, anyway
[23:05]	DaemonFC	For example, it's almost impossible to get ahold of anyone now at your bank, the doctor's office, or the ISP.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	The bank used to be that someone picked up the phone within 3-5 minutes.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	Now it can take an hour.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	The idea is that you can just wait indefinitely and eventually they'll pick up.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	The idea is to wear you down so you hang up without talking to anyone if it's not urgent.
[23:07]	Sompi	Hardware-assisted multitasking was an error.
[23:10]	MinceR	why?
[23:10]	Sompi	Because now everyshit is broken and unfixable.
[23:10]	MinceR	and how would you protect the OS from the applications and the applications from each other without hardware assistance?
[23:12]	Sompi	I don't know, but the humanity err'd and took the wrong route. We need to try again.
[23:12]	Sompi	And we need to try something else.
[23:13]	MinceR	i suppose you could try restricting what the machine code of each process is
[23:13]	MinceR	or just build the entire system on an interpreter
[23:14]	Sompi	lEEt/OS does the latter
[23:14]	MinceR	hardware assistance seems to be faster
[23:15]	Sompi	I'm not sure about that. It SHOULD be faster, but it doesn't SEEM to be faster.
[23:16]	Sompi	Hardware-assisted multitasking is always so complex, and the CPU needs to do more checks before every instruction that reads or writes memory.
[23:16]	MinceR	the known alternatives appear to be even more complex
[23:17]	MinceR	but anyway, where's the connection between things being broken and unfixable and hardware-assisted multitasking?
