matey <XRevan86> War wasn't kind to Lenin. <- was it lenin (i think) or was it trotsky that said revolution wears men downApr 17 00:48
mateylenin was fighting to see that his legacy was not destroyed by stalin, but it was killing himApr 17 00:49
XRevan86matey: Trotsky did.Apr 17 00:49
mateytrotsky was seeing to this even after lenins death, and stalin had him killed for itApr 17 00:49
matey<XRevan86> matey: Trotsky did. <- fair enough, i treat them separately with good reason but sometimes they run together a bitApr 17 00:49
mateythey werent always friends. but they were certainly comradesApr 17 00:50
XRevan86Stalin is a very distint figure from Lenin and Trotsky as far as political views go.Apr 17 00:50
mateystalin not only made a pact with hitler, he made a pact with hitler and then said trotsky was working with the nazisApr 17 00:50
XRevan86So I can understand how they can blend together when compared to Stalin.Apr 17 00:50
matey<XRevan86> Stalin is a very distint figure from Lenin and Trotsky as far as political views go. <- this is something i try to make clear to peopleApr 17 00:50
XRevan86* distinctApr 17 00:51
matey how they can blend together when compared to Stalin. <- i think it goes a little farther than that, but of course lenin wasnt exactly president of the leon trotsky fan club for a long timeApr 17 00:51
mateyand even trotsky was disappointed with the 4th national Apr 17 00:52
mateythey were a bit rag tag and he wanted soldiers (in discipline at least)Apr 17 00:52
mateylike the fellow he used to have guarding the door with it left open, and he would say "you shouldnt do that, its a good way to get shot"Apr 17 00:52
mateyand the guy got shot later, just like trotsky said he wouldApr 17 00:53
XRevan86matey: A funny analogy in modern-day Russia: Yeltsin as Lenin, Niemtsov as Trotsky, Putin as Stalin :)Apr 17 00:54
mateyive been watching a lot of benjamin rich lately, as he traipses through the former soviet union (including russia, belarus, many other places)Apr 17 00:54
mateywell i got the putin as stalin part, thats obviouslyApr 17 00:54
mateyyeltsin as lenin? you must either like him or hate himApr 17 00:54
XRevan86All analogies break apart under close inspection, but it holds up better than expected.Apr 17 00:54
mateyniemtsov is entirely outside the scope of my interests (so far), as ive never heard of himApr 17 00:55
mateyive started a century or two earlierApr 17 00:55
mateybut with the stuff from ben rich im seeing the refufees, the aftermathApr 17 00:55
XRevan86matey: Yeltsin founded the state, Niemtsov was a visionary of it, Putin inherited it, Niemtsov fought Putin and then got killed.Apr 17 00:55
mateyrefugeesApr 17 00:55
mateythats pretty good, analogy wiseApr 17 00:56
mateythanks for the outline, stuff like that is usefulApr 17 00:56
XRevan86matey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boris_NemtsovApr 17 00:56
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Boris Nemtsov - WikipediaApr 17 00:56
XRevan86He's a big opposition-to-Putin figure in the history of contemporary Russia.Apr 17 00:56
mateyof course trotsky would tell anyone that you cant figure out revolution everywhere by basing it on russia, and its a mistake to do soApr 17 00:56
mateybut he would also hope, im quite certain, that people would learn from the mistakes at leastApr 17 00:57
XRevan86He was way bigger than Navalny.Apr 17 00:57
mateyive read "a revolution betrayed" and part of the history of the russian revolution by ted grantApr 17 00:57
MinceR17 015042 < matey> stalin not only made a pact with hitler, he made a pact with hitler and then said trotsky was working with the nazisApr 17 00:57
MinceRi didn't realize the "NO U R TEH NAZIS!!11111" russian move was so oldApr 17 00:58
matey :>Apr 17 00:58
mateyjust the fact that it happens at lieplanet should be a hint that its been recycled more than onceApr 17 00:58
MinceRlearning from mistakes? that's not what humans doApr 17 00:59
XRevan86MinceR: Unfortunately Putin learnt from… success.Apr 17 00:59
mateysabotage is always easier than building a better worldApr 17 00:59
XRevan86Worked for Stalin, works for Putin so far.Apr 17 00:59
mateythe thing is, the workers have to be armedApr 17 01:00
mateyif every worker was armed the world would be a very different place. something the marxists and libertarians actually agree onApr 17 01:00
*DaemonFC (~daemonfc@26txficfvx7mg.irc) has joined #techrightsApr 17 01:00
mateythe difference is that libertarians (in my experience) really have no plan at allApr 17 01:00
mateyand maybe they would say thats an advantageApr 17 01:01
DaemonFCschestowitz, I literally passed out from lack of sleep. Luckily had enough energy to go to bed.Apr 17 01:01
mateybut strategically, its probably notApr 17 01:01
*techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)Apr 17 01:01
DaemonFCIt took all day just to get a car key.Apr 17 01:01
DaemonFCBy the time they were finished, it was time to get Mandy at work anyway.Apr 17 01:01
DaemonFCI took the keys from Buick and the keys from Batteries Plus and talked to Anthony Buick GMC in Gurnee and a locksmith.Apr 17 01:02
mateyi tried explaining to roy that theres a narrower selection of 90s cars than there used to beApr 17 01:02
mateybecause they dont make 90s cars anymoreApr 17 01:02
XRevan86matey: I've abandoned all hope for strategy years ago.Apr 17 01:03
mateyhe thinks you should have gotten one without a "luxury" ignitionApr 17 01:03
XRevan86matey: Just like the Hungarian opposition :)Apr 17 01:03
DaemonFCThe Buick dealer told me that there was something "off brand" about the key where the transponder wouldn't program correctly for the car to remember it, but the Buick key that theh made was correct and accepting a program.Apr 17 01:03
mateyi explained that half your motivation was to get a car with less such bullshit, but those were pretty standardApr 17 01:03
matey<DaemonFC> The Buick dealer told me that there was something "off brand" about the key where the transponder wouldn't program correctly  <- that sounds like hes throwing you a lineApr 17 01:04
DaemonFCAnd then the locksmith I showed the keys to laughed and said "It won't turn because the one from Batteries Plus is a few mm off and you can just barely get the key cylinder to turn if you wiggle it.".Apr 17 01:04
matey<XRevan86> matey: I've abandoned all hope for strategy years ago. <- if all is lost, we can do whatever we please. if we can do whatever we please, some will keep trying.Apr 17 01:04
XRevan86matey: What I mean is that there's literally only one job to do.Apr 17 01:04
DaemonFCPhysically, the one from Batteries Plus will open the car door because it's close enough for the door lock and the door does not check for a transponder ID.Apr 17 01:04
mateythe takeover of free software was capitalisms last chance. if we cant build something better im still anti-capitalistApr 17 01:05
DaemonFCSo if a thief clones the physical key, it gets them in the car, but it won't start the car.Apr 17 01:05
XRevan86Everything else is a hypothetical.Apr 17 01:05
matey <XRevan86> matey: What I mean is that there's literally only one job to do. <- im still not old enough for nihilism or fatalismApr 17 01:05
XRevan86matey: How about "there are no politics when an autocrat is in power"?Apr 17 01:06
matey<XRevan86> Everything else is a hypothetical. <- everything else. i mean everything is hypothetical until you test the hypothesesApr 17 01:06
matey<XRevan86> matey: How about "there are no politics when an autocrat is in power"? <- depending how you define politicsApr 17 01:06
mateythe first task is to get the autocrat out Apr 17 01:06
XRevan86matey: The first task, yes.Apr 17 01:06
mateyan autocrat is a prison for a nation or larger part of the worldApr 17 01:06
mateyin human formApr 17 01:06
mateyim agnostic. i still put a very small percentage of stock in divine interventionApr 17 01:08
mateythough im increasingly familiar with history so... not TOO MUCH stock, eh?Apr 17 01:08
mateystalin at least, is dead. but he lived too long.Apr 17 01:09
mateyhitler is dead, he too lived too longApr 17 01:09
mateyit annoys me when roy talks like github and ibm will simply collapse, as if waiting for that is the answerApr 17 01:09
mateyof course, he would deny saying thats the answerApr 17 01:09
mateybut he still talks that way most of the timeApr 17 01:09
mateywaiting for these things to take care of themselves is ALWAYS the answer for some peopleApr 17 01:10
*techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@s44cwn8sugddy.irc) has joined #techrightsApr 17 01:10
mateyhow much worse would things be if everyone thought about every problem that way?Apr 17 01:10
mateytoday i learned that gcc is WAY WAY more resource efficient than llvmApr 17 01:11
mateythis is all the same to me, im not changing topic though anyone may accuse me of doing soApr 17 01:11
mateyi learned this not from techrights, but from #techrightsApr 17 01:11
mateybecause some nutter (whose work i do admired) is trying to make a c++-free distroApr 17 01:12
XRevan86matey: Deus ex machina is a thing in works of fiction, it's not a factor in reality.Apr 17 01:12
mateyand he knows that gcc is way easier to build than llvm-- some others here know that too, no one told me beforeApr 17 01:12
bnchsllvm is bloated and shitApr 17 01:12
bnchsofc gcc is way easier to buildApr 17 01:13
mateymatey: Deus ex machina is a thing in works of fiction, it's not a factor in reality. <- even if im refuting my own argument, if there is no god then we are it.Apr 17 01:13
bnchswhen i was building PS3 toolchain in a 4GB ram laptopApr 17 01:13
matey<bnchs> ofc gcc is way easier to build <- but i didnt know that until todayApr 17 01:13
bnchsit only took 30 minutesApr 17 01:13
mateyit changes a lot if llvm is that much of a hogApr 17 01:13
mateyfor example, we cant escape ibm by simply moving to llvm (which of course is microsoft)Apr 17 01:13
mateyand it makes forking llvm that much more impractical, fucking beast that it is (i had no way to quanitify it previously)Apr 17 01:14
XRevan86matey: "If there is no god then we are it" <- I'm a theological noncognitivist in that I consider your statement to be factually empty.Apr 17 01:14
bnchsllvm is a beastApr 17 01:14
bnchsi would rather use GCCApr 17 01:14
mateyfactually empty. <- okay, maybe we can find a fact to put in its placeApr 17 01:14
mateywe are likely the most "intelligent" species on earth FSVO of intelligenceApr 17 01:15
mateyor if we are not...Apr 17 01:15
mateythe whales and dolphins are probably not going to assist us (unless they can do so telepathically)Apr 17 01:15

matey <bnchs> the issue has a memory usage chart <- im not crediting anyone in here with making a big discovery, only with making me aware of the issueApr 17 01:16
XRevan86matey: Unfortunately, collectively %).Apr 17 01:16
bnchsmatey: yeahApr 17 01:16
bnchsLLVM is an issueApr 17 01:16
bnchsXorg requires itApr 17 01:17
bnchswhich is why i couldn't use gentoo with XorgApr 17 01:17
mateyxorg sees fit to have a stab at rms for simply saying they made a mistakeApr 17 01:17
mateymaybe they have an addiction to bullshit (or bloat) or somethingApr 17 01:17
bnchsfuck llvmApr 17 01:18
bnchsi wish programs didn't depend on it, considering how utterly obese it isApr 17 01:18
matey <bnchs> fuck llvm <- probably a good idea. makes me even sadder that openbsd uses itApr 17 01:18
mateyand its one more reason gnu/bsd would be a good idea (since openbsd isnt made for gcc i guess)Apr 17 01:19
matey(or is it, i couldnt tell you)Apr 17 01:19
bnchsopenbsd should use gccApr 17 01:19
bnchsor some other compilerApr 17 01:19
bnchsnot llvmApr 17 01:19
bnchsughhhApr 17 01:19
mateybut if hyperbola makes openbsd use gcc theyre probably doing the world a favourApr 17 01:19
mateyafter all, theyre not just openbsd fans, theyre openbsd fans who love free software as a movementApr 17 01:19
mateyopenbsd is a research project-- not a movementApr 17 01:20
bnchsthe point is to use free softwareApr 17 01:20
bnchsthat is efficient both in being compiledApr 17 01:20
bnchsand being usedApr 17 01:20
mateyits a very GOOD project, but now we know what a mistake it is to use llvmApr 17 01:20
matey<bnchs> the point is to use free software <bnchs> that is efficient both in being compiled <bnchs> and being used <- of courseApr 17 01:20
mateyand being maintained-- where openbsd wins (mostly)Apr 17 01:20
mateybut i think llvm does notApr 17 01:20
bnchsllvm fails at thoseApr 17 01:20
mateyyesApr 17 01:20
matey <XRevan86> matey: Unfortunately, collectively <- then our choices perhaps, are to work to make things work collectivelyApr 17 01:21
mateyor watch them get worseApr 17 01:21
mateydont mistake me for an optimist. my view of the world is a bit like westleys when every night he would hearApr 17 01:21
matey"good night westley, ill most likely kill you in the morning"Apr 17 01:21
mateybut im bored with television, so...Apr 17 01:22
mateyand there arent THAT many watchable movies on youtubeApr 17 01:23
XRevan86"Theological noncognitivism" is a term I like because it describes well what I see my level of atheism: not only do I not think that gods exist, I think that the word "god" doesn't actually describe anything.Apr 17 01:23
mateythats sort of making things true by redefining something else, isnt it?Apr 17 01:23
mateyi mean it seems like a straw man to meApr 17 01:23
mateya god is a concept of a being more powerful than man-- thats itApr 17 01:24
mateyit doesnt need to be more complicated than thatApr 17 01:24
mateyif you could be twice as powerful as any man it would make you "god-like" at least.Apr 17 01:24
XRevan86matey: So if a rock crushes a man, the rock is god?Apr 17 01:24
mateysome people would be offended, but you could brush them off with relative easeApr 17 01:24
matey matey: So if a rock crushes a man, the rock is god? <- only if a rock is a "being", then yesApr 17 01:25
matey <matey> a god is a concept of a being more powerful than man-- thats itApr 17 01:25
XRevan86matey: Is a man on literal steroids god?Apr 17 01:25
XRevan86More powerful than a regular man.Apr 17 01:25
mateyi guess it dependsApr 17 01:25
MinceRsmarter than the average bearApr 17 01:26
mateyif he can stop someone from putting him down with a bullet, perhapsApr 17 01:26

XRevan86Smart bullets are key here.Apr 17 01:27
mateyanyway we wont get past straw man with more straw manApr 17 01:27
MinceRjust set fire to the straw menApr 17 01:27
mateygod was never a difficult conceptApr 17 01:27
MinceRyeahApr 17 01:27
MinceRit was the "i can't think of an explanation" conceptApr 17 01:27
MinceRand the "you must do what i say, because... uh..." conceptApr 17 01:27
MinceRrolled into one!Apr 17 01:27
XRevan86I mean, the initial gods are simple enough that humanity universally just wrote them off as fiction.Apr 17 01:28
mateythat can be a nasty combination yesApr 17 01:28
mateyid say politics has done as much with that as religion hasApr 17 01:28
XRevan86I can say with confidence that there's no lightning god.Apr 17 01:28
mateyi mean christianity has had some ugly moments-- not to defend it, but very often a state was involved before it got truly uglyApr 17 01:28
mateylike rome, or the vatican, or bothApr 17 01:28
XRevan86I give a revan guarantee.Apr 17 01:28

mateythose giant fucking blocks-- the pyramids and the monument to gilgameshApr 17 01:29
mateyhow were those stones lifted?Apr 17 01:30
mateyim not saying gods did itApr 17 01:30
XRevan86matey: By men.Apr 17 01:30
mateythis isnt a GOTCHAApr 17 01:30
mateyokay, but how did men lift them?Apr 17 01:30
mateyi would also assume menApr 17 01:30
XRevan86matey: Levers and shit.Apr 17 01:30
mateyfair enoughApr 17 01:31
mateyive certainly read the one about a lever big enough and the world, etcApr 17 01:31
XRevan86Levers are like a weight cheat-code :)Apr 17 01:31

MinceR17 022803 < XRevan86> I mean, the initial gods are simple enough that humanity universally just wrote them off as fiction.Apr 17 01:33
MinceRyou mean, their cults were defeated by other cultsApr 17 01:33

Examples include business card CDs, CDs in the shape of a star, a map of a country, interview material and more.

DaemonFC""Fuel system service" is one of the biggest scams at dealerships. Took my car to the dealer for one of the "free" oil changes when the car had only 20,000 miles on it. Service advisor finds me in the waiting room and says "We recommend a 4-wheel alignment, wheel balancing, and fuel system cleaning. The total for everything will be $600." I simply said "A car with 20,000 miles on it doesn't need any of that, so no thank you." They proceeded to Apr 17 02:52

DaemonFCschestowitz, I rewrote my review of Batteries Plus.Apr 17 03:13
DaemonFC"The store owner here is a very odd fellow indeed. He's also quite badly tempered.Apr 17 03:13
DaemonFCI brought my 2008 Buick Lacrosse in for a new car battery and he upsold me a second key and a remote and I figured "Why not? I did only get one when I bought it." which is actually quite common on older cars where grandma forgot where she put her keys. Apr 17 03:13
DaemonFCThis car is in exceptional condition for its age and so clean you can eat off of it, however Bhushan Chouhan, the owner, blamed my car when his key (defective, per Anthony Buick, where I had to go get the work redone correctly) stopped working.Apr 17 03:13
DaemonFCThe Buick dealer today told me that Batteries Plus sells junk car keys and that whoever cut it didn't even cut the physical part correctly, and the transponder inside was not accepting the coding correctly. It would work for a minute or two and then the car would forget it because it's a non-genuine key. Aftermarket crap.Apr 17 03:13
DaemonFCWhen I had Anthony Buick make me a key, the key worked, and continues to work fine. I also had to have them give me a remote control that works because Mr. Chouhan at Batteries Plus went further when trying to correct his key that didn't work, and deauthorized my remote in the process, so I had to pay Buick $168 today. Should have gone there to begin with.Apr 17 03:13
DaemonFCI also bought a car battery from Mr. Chouhan, which seems to work okay for now. I hope that the warranty is honored at their other stores if I have to use it, because Mr. Chouhan does not accept responsibility for his work and find time (even though he doesn't seem to have very many customers while I was there) to make things right, and also refused to issue a full refund for his insufficiently operable generic products. When I demanded a Apr 17 03:13
DaemonFCrefund, he called me at my home while I was having dinner with my spouse, babbling incoherently, screaming, and lobbing all sorts of verbal abuse, including claiming that he would call the police on me. For what, I am not sure. Orderly Conduct?Apr 17 03:14
DaemonFCAnyway, if you get security keys cut here, you may find out that they just mysteriously stop working, and hopefully you're either at home or at a safe place where you can have your car towed from when it happens.Apr 17 03:14
DaemonFCOr you can go to your authorized dealer and get the job done right, with nobody threatening you.Apr 17 03:14
DaemonFCAfter he refused to refund the programming fee, I have decided to escalate this issue through the appropriate channels.Apr 17 03:14
DaemonFCFrom my understanding, having read the Better Business Bureau complaints of Batteries Plus in general, most of their stores appear to me as though they operate much like Mr. Chouhan's locations. Many customers at other stores have complained that the Duracell car batteries in particular don't last very long and some of the people at the stores start getting squirrely when the customer asked for a warranty replacement.Apr 17 03:14
DaemonFCSo take this for what it is. Even Walmart will honor the warranty terms on their car batteries, and many vehicles I've owned ran fine with Walmart car batteries for years.Apr 17 03:14
DaemonFCAnother thing that Batteries Plus did was claim "free installation" of car batteries when you bought them from their store, and then when I got down there at least, Mr. Chouhan decided that there would be another $50 in "difficult installation fees" because he had to move a battery bar and a fuse box out of the way that involved all of about four nuts (well, again in my opinion, five if you include him) and the battery terminals."Apr 17 03:14

mateyso this is the day when a giant bunny flew to heaven and chocolate eggs rained down, as told by the prophet tay zondayApr 17 22:41
mateyand this is celebrated with chocolate and extra church, unless youre protestantApr 17 22:42
mateyor (gasp) not a bunny worshiperApr 17 22:42
matey"but the parents were wicked, and stole all the eggs and hid them away from the children, who delighted in finding them and thwarting the parents evil plans"Apr 17 22:44
mateyand this of course celebrates the destruction of the temple, when god hid most of it from the jewish people, but only mel gibson is brave enough to talk about itApr 17 22:45
mateymel gibson: "dont look at me!"Apr 17 22:45
mateydont be so modest, mel-- without you, how would anyone know the truthApr 17 22:45
mateymel gibson: "it was aliens!"Apr 17 22:47
MinceRis mel gibson playing giorgio tsoukalos now?Apr 17 22:48
mateyi assume thats a joke but since this is mel gibson we are talking about, it could also be a real question and it wouldnt be your faultApr 17 22:48

MinceRoh, i vaguely remember hearing jokes with Chapayev in themApr 17 22:53
XRevan86It's one of those.Apr 17 22:53
XRevan86I didn't connect the dots.Apr 17 22:54
XRevan86I guess a better adaptation would have "comrade Chapaev" or something.Apr 17 22:55
mateytor browser is a great way to wean yourself off the web, ESPECIALLY if youre using ff anyway (as it has most of the same bullshit as ff, minus a bit)Apr 17 22:57
mateybecause suddenly a lot of websites are like "fuck you, lift your skirt and show me your ip"Apr 17 22:58
mateyand im like "no, youre not a real website"Apr 17 22:58

mateythere was an episode of dudley do-right where snidely asked dudley "have you ever thought about what would happen to me, if anything should happen to you?"Apr 17 23:00
matey"well, no..."Apr 17 23:00
matey"i thought not, sign here"Apr 17 23:00
SomeH4x0rthey left by now btwApr 17 23:01
SomeH4x0rthe person on UplinkIRCApr 17 23:01
mateyand snidely gets dudley to sign over the rights to his newly found "mine" in the event of an untimely accident "which is exactly what snidely had in mind"Apr 17 23:01
mateytheyll come here if they want toApr 17 23:01
mateythe mine of course, was actually just a tunnel to the chief inspectors office where the payroll was kept in sacksApr 17 23:02
mateybut dudley didnt realise thatApr 17 23:02
mateyso the chief inspector orders do-right to find out who is stealing the payroll, snidely thinks hes killed do-right and goes to collect the bagsApr 17 23:03
mateydudley shows up and nabs him and says "SO *YOU* are the payroll thief!"Apr 17 23:03
mateyhe gets vacation time for catching snidely and decides to go dig for more gold... several yards away from some giant bankApr 17 23:03
matey"then ill push you into this river" "but i can swim!" "with a stick of dynamite in your mouth?"Apr 17 23:06
matey"it was true, dudley COULDNT swim with a stick of dynamite in his mouth!"Apr 17 23:06
matey"but his HORSE COULD!"Apr 17 23:06
mateythe best part was when he swam to shore and doused the dynamite in a bucket of waterApr 17 23:08
mateybecause there obviously wasnt enough of that in the riverApr 17 23:09
mateythis may have inspired d-bus somehowApr 17 23:09
