| matey | there really isnt enough science (or scientific attitude) in the free software movement | Apr 18 01:33 |
| matey | you dont need to throw ethics away to have science. you can start with the 4 freedoms as a requirement, for example | Apr 18 01:33 |
| matey | i think its clear enough that if you dont have the 4 freedoms its not free software | Apr 18 01:33 |
| MinceR | "upon blind faith they place reliance / what we need more of science!" | Apr 18 01:34 |
| MinceR | oops | Apr 18 01:34 |
| MinceR | "upon blind faith they place reliance / what we need more of is science!" | Apr 18 01:34 |
| matey | "if i had a million dollars, if i had a million dollars, i would buy you a k-car / a nice reliant automobile!" | Apr 18 01:35 |
| matey | but i mean, the copyleft / permissive thing is based on theory, and the theory should be something we could test and settle once and for all | Apr 18 01:36 |
| matey | this is just the most obvious example (to me) there are other examples where science could help free software | Apr 18 01:36 |
| matey | ive heard plenty of theories, and theyre worth considering | Apr 18 01:37 |
| matey | we also have a lot more data than we did in 1997 | Apr 18 01:37 |
| matey | but it would be nice to have a clearer understanding of the actual effects of gpl vs 3-clause bsd for example | Apr 18 01:38 |
| matey | because calling it a "pushover" license not only glosses over the intentions of some projects using it (which isnt really about what the phrase "pushover license" implies) | Apr 18 01:39 |
| matey | you might get more people writing a project LIKE GNU under a permissive license | Apr 18 01:39 |
| matey | i hate this lack of science on both sides of the argument-- its ASSUMED that people contribute more under a permissive license | Apr 18 01:40 |
| matey | id like to see this settled with facts and a broad and detailed assessment | Apr 18 01:40 |
| matey | which is either a job that would take a year or more, or a job that would take a dozen or more people | Apr 18 01:40 |

| matey | im actually doing research tangential to this, which may (eventually) shed some light on this, but a group of 5 people with the right methods could do a better job | Apr 18 01:43 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | EPO in 2021: Less About Europe, Less About Science, Less About Quality (or Compliance), and More About Weapons or Monopolies on Vaccines | Techrights | Apr 18 01:43 | |
| matey | all my research builds several themes together, so any findings i come up with are going to be along several different axes | Apr 18 01:44 |
| matey | for example, my data will be useless to anyone who wants to see whether any of this applies to github, since im interested almost exclusively in things that ARENT on github | Apr 18 01:44 |
| matey | if its on github, youve already fucked up | Apr 18 01:45 |
| matey | solution: move from github | Apr 18 01:45 |
| matey | until they do that, im not very interested | Apr 18 01:45 |
| matey | people show me new software. its on github. i mostly pretend it doesnt exist | Apr 18 01:45 |
| matey | i spent 10 fucking years getting away from microsoft | Apr 18 01:46 |
| matey | theyre asking me to go back? fuck no | Apr 18 01:46 |
| matey | already left that cult | Apr 18 01:46 |
| matey | project on github: "we care about your freedom SORT OF" | Apr 18 01:47 |
| matey | youre open source, i get it (gnu project) | Apr 18 01:47 |
| matey | the direction copyleft is headed in worries me a little bit | Apr 18 01:48 |
| matey | on the one hand, theres (possibly fud) about how its too weak in any hands but those who wrote it to defend it | Apr 18 01:48 |
| matey | making it next to useless | Apr 18 01:48 |
| matey | on the other, theres "hope" about making it so anyone can defend it... | Apr 18 01:48 |
| matey | sounds a like a good thing! | Apr 18 01:49 |
| matey | but wait, copyright trolls are a thing | Apr 18 01:49 |
| matey | what if microsoft can defend gpl code it didnt write? | Apr 18 01:49 |
| matey | and forbid you from using it... | Apr 18 01:49 |
| matey | oh, youve been pretty good about including source code, but copyright is nasty, maybe theres some problem with something and | Apr 18 01:50 |
| matey | ah, now a lawsuit | Apr 18 01:50 |
| matey | if it wasnt for corporations like microsoft this would be an absurdist concern | Apr 18 01:50 |
| matey | if it werent for nasty little shits like copyright trolls this would be an absurdist concern | Apr 18 01:50 |
| matey | i dont think its absurd at all | Apr 18 01:50 |
| matey | this makes me wonder if permissive isnt a little safer at guaranteeing freedom 0 (note please that part of the reason rms went with copyleft is that he got fucked out of his own work using permissive-- back when these issues were MUCH less familiar to the public) | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | github is declining | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | copilot also | Apr 18 01:52 |
| matey | bullshit | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | in relative terms | Apr 18 01:52 |
| matey | yeah | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe not absolute terms | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | but relative | Apr 18 01:52 |
| matey | realtive to significant terms | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | the market is being saturated | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | see skype in 2012 | Apr 18 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | versus 2022 | Apr 18 01:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | but we need to keep pushing people to RE-consider their code hosting | Apr 18 01:53 |
| matey | apples and orangutans | Apr 18 01:53 |
| matey | <schestowitz-TR> but we need to keep pushing people to RE-consider their code hosting <- yes | Apr 18 01:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | many people are hearing of github and start thinking | Apr 18 01:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | "err... not sure about this, what are the OTHER options" | Apr 18 01:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | and this is what we want | Apr 18 01:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | the youtube-dl debacle was good | Apr 18 01:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | and recent we showed 2000 other takedown this past year | Apr 18 01:54 |
| matey | sourcehut isnt really better though | Apr 18 01:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | microsoft obeys like 99% of them | Apr 18 01:54 |
| matey | <schestowitz-TR> the youtube-dl debacle was good <- i think you overestimate its impact | Apr 18 01:54 |
| matey | for one it wasnt the first of its kind | Apr 18 01:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | sourcehut is ok for some things | Apr 18 01:54 |
| matey | for another, they didnt move | Apr 18 01:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | I am not VERY familiar with it | Apr 18 01:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | but I checked about 100 projects in it | Apr 18 01:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's nice and simple | Apr 18 01:55 |
| matey | sourcehut, you stop paying they delete your repo | Apr 18 01:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | codeberg is... interestingh | Apr 18 01:55 |
| matey | they should just archive it. | Apr 18 01:55 |
| matey | whats wrong with codeberg? i dont pay it any attention yet | Apr 18 01:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | there's no "Free" hosting | Apr 18 01:55 |
| matey | i mean if somethings wrong with it i woudlnt know | Apr 18 01:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | at least they are HONEST | Apr 18 01:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | gulagtube is NOT "free" video hosting | Apr 18 01:55 |
| matey | there no free hosting with sourcehut either | Apr 18 01:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | many people realise this when it's too late | Apr 18 01:55 |
| matey | but sourcehut will delete your repo for non-payment | Apr 18 01:56 |

| matey | diaspora is a farce | Apr 18 01:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | and still everything got taken down | Apr 18 01:56 |

| schestowitz-TR | gold is also a "scam" | Apr 18 02:02 |

| matey | diamonds are a scam | Apr 18 02:03 |
| matey | theyre not worth what you pay for them, at all | Apr 18 02:03 |
| matey | the "value" is fucked with in a number of ways | Apr 18 02:03 |
| matey | this is why the gold / silver people, as far as i know, never say buy diamonds! | Apr 18 02:04 |
| matey | if youre smuggling wealth out of nazi germany, maybe diamonds are good for that :) | Apr 18 02:04 |
| matey | diamonds must be profitable if theyre stolen | Apr 18 02:05 |
| schestowitz-TR | no | Apr 18 02:05 |

| matey | i think theyre still pretty good at telling which is which | Apr 18 02:06 |
| matey | im not a diamond expert | Apr 18 02:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | like 'fake' so-called 'designer' bags | Apr 18 02:06 |
| matey | i do know their value is tampered with and more artificial than gold or silver | Apr 18 02:06 |
| matey | which im not promoting, only comparing | Apr 18 02:06 |
| matey | the designer bags, UNLIKE diamonds, more like bitcoin, DO go up in value | Apr 18 02:07 |
| schestowitz-TR | bitcoin is fakecoin for some purposes | Apr 18 02:07 |
| schestowitz-TR | very spculative | Apr 18 02:07 |
| matey | for how long do they go up in value? i mean, markets do come and go | Apr 18 02:07 |
| matey | so do stocks | Apr 18 02:07 |
| matey | if i bought a designer bag (im not in the market for one) it might outperform a stock with less risk | Apr 18 02:08 |

| matey | i mean the touchscreens exist | Apr 18 02:10 |
| matey | the processors exist | Apr 18 02:10 |
| matey | even the batteriest exist | Apr 18 02:10 |
| matey | the thing is most people dont want a pda | Apr 18 02:11 |
| matey | this is a fact | Apr 18 02:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | not the same types | Apr 18 02:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's like saying | Apr 18 02:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | "make me a nintendo" | Apr 18 02:11 |
| matey | theyd want it to do more. a pda is mostly an offline device | Apr 18 02:11 |
| matey | you could just get a pine phone and never activate the network | Apr 18 02:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | and then they cobble together some arm or x86 processor | Apr 18 02:12 |
| matey | the palm brand isnt that strong | Apr 18 02:12 |
| matey | its got some classic value | Apr 18 02:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | and run an emulation layer | Apr 18 02:12 |
| AdmFubar | happy zombie jesus day to all! | Apr 18 02:12 |
| matey | and then they cobble together some arm or x86 processor <- but this is a good example | Apr 18 02:12 |
| matey | nintendo emulators have more of a market than any sort of pda | Apr 18 02:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | AdmFubar: brainzzz! | Apr 18 02:13 |
| matey | there is an actual market for them | Apr 18 02:13 |
| matey | nintendo even sells a nintendo emulator! | Apr 18 02:13 |
| matey | and i mean its a little mini nintendo using a snapdragon chip | Apr 18 02:13 |
| matey | not the original hardware, less than 1/2 the size | Apr 18 02:13 |
| matey | emulates the original model | Apr 18 02:13 |
| matey | personally i never gave a shit about the 8-bit nitendo. ive certainly used one | Apr 18 02:14 |
| matey | we had an atari 2600 | Apr 18 02:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | sort of misses the point of sentimental value | Apr 18 02:14 |
| matey | sort of misses the point of sentimental value <- only for some | Apr 18 02:14 |
| matey | i mean there are two groups, theyre not at war really | Apr 18 02:15 |
| matey | its not like mac vs pc | Apr 18 02:15 |
| *techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Apr 18 02:15 | |
| matey | some want the REALEST REAL REAL THING | Apr 18 02:15 |
| matey | for them an emulator is garbage | Apr 18 02:15 |
| matey | more people want an emulator that is reasonably close but doesnt look like shit on a wall-sized plasma screen, and the emulators are better for that | Apr 18 02:15 |

| matey | roughly zero want a pda. im not saying those people dont exist | Apr 18 02:16 |
| matey | im saying if you want to make a homebrew project and sell it, a pda is a GOOD DESIGN but it probably wont be a viable business | Apr 18 02:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | that's just fashionable consumption | Apr 18 02:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | media tells people what they "want" | Apr 18 02:16 |

| matey | and I don't care for what such media says <- nor do i | Apr 18 02:17 |
| matey | but i know how many people i know want a pda, and its close to 0 | Apr 18 02:17 |
| matey | take myself for example | Apr 18 02:17 |
| matey | i had a COUPLE decent pdas | Apr 18 02:17 |

| schestowitz-TR | OK, I said metaphorically | Apr 18 09:14 |
| matey | well duh | Apr 18 09:15 |
| matey | i mean how else is that phrase used | Apr 18 09:15 |
| matey | the thing is youre implying that concern over dependencies is absurd or something | Apr 18 09:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | no | Apr 18 09:15 |
| matey | when really, there are two REALLY GOOD reasons to follow that information | Apr 18 09:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | but reading between the lines might lead to such a conclusion | Apr 18 09:16 |
| SomeH4x0r | https://kill-9.xyz/guides/distrust_cloudflare is it useful? Does it have any other intermediates? | Apr 18 09:16 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-kill-9.xyz | guides - distrust cloudflare | Apr 18 09:16 | |
| schestowitz-TR | yes, it's important to understand what happens | Apr 18 09:16 |
| matey | if by reading between the lines you mean "intepreting that phrase the way its basically always intended" then sure | Apr 18 09:16 |
| SomeH4x0r | hi matey also | Apr 18 09:16 |
| matey | hi | Apr 18 09:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | SomeH4x0r: clownflare is a dirty bomb | Apr 18 09:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | and they lose money | Apr 18 09:16 |
| matey | but the two reaslly good reasons are: | Apr 18 09:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | so you know they will become evil, very evil, soon | Apr 18 09:16 |
| matey | 1. the POINT of course, is that yes, its basically everything | Apr 18 09:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | not sure if they'll start charging everyone or something worse | Apr 18 09:17 |
| matey | 2. if im trying to recommend the LEAST github-encumbered software, that information helps quantify how encumbered it is or isnt | Apr 18 09:17 |
| matey | or if youre trying to predict the projects most likely to move there soon (as projects that have a lot of gh deps often move there eventually) | Apr 18 09:17 |
| matey | basically "theyre on gh or theyre not" is not very fine grained | Apr 18 09:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | it'll blow up | Apr 18 09:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | it already does | Apr 18 09:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | but too slowly | Apr 18 09:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | if Microsoft tries to manipulate too much, staff and projects walk away | Apr 18 09:18 |
| matey | id ask if youre referring to clownflare or gh but since you make the same argument for basically anything negative, theres little pint | Apr 18 09:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | if not, they carry on losing money | Apr 18 09:18 |
| matey | at which point any project that isnt actively maintained could simply disappear forever. | Apr 18 09:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | clownflare and GH are similar in tihis regard | Apr 18 09:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | they lose money | Apr 18 09:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | they offer a fake, worthless, "service" | Apr 18 09:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | and people do not really need them | Apr 18 09:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | and if they start charging, people will leave | Apr 18 09:19 |
| matey | so even if active projects escape github after its collapse | Apr 18 09:19 |
| matey | theyre still going to wipe out decades of history. | Apr 18 09:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | right | Apr 18 09:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | like Linux pre-git | Apr 18 09:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's the projects' fault | Apr 18 09:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | they chose proprietary software | Apr 18 09:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | with NO EXPORT OPTION | Apr 18 09:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | except for git tree | Apr 18 09:20 |
| matey | when github collapses its going to be a fucking mess | Apr 18 09:21 |
| matey | for free software | Apr 18 09:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | yes | Apr 18 09:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | but... | Apr 18 09:21 |
| matey | ive always tried to figure out how much stuff is there | Apr 18 09:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | even without Microsoft | Apr 18 09:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | remember when Ton from Blender said | Apr 18 09:21 |
| matey | based on the fsd id say its more than 50% of our software | Apr 18 09:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | >50% might be OK | Apr 18 09:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | as it used to be HIGHER | Apr 18 09:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | a LOT higher | Apr 18 09:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | like 3 years ago | Apr 18 09:22 |
| matey | 90% is more than 50% | Apr 18 09:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | many of the newer projects explore self-hosting, even without gitlab | Apr 18 09:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | they don't fancy microsoft | Apr 18 09:22 |
| SomeH4x0r | One evil with Blender I know is that it now requires OpenGL version above the one my device supports, and it didn't in before. | Apr 18 09:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | except very dumb or bribed projects | Apr 18 09:22 |
| matey | many of the newer projects explore self-hosting, even without gitlab <- well, about that... | Apr 18 09:22 |
| matey | every month the fsd gets new links approved | Apr 18 09:22 |
| matey | maybe dozens | Apr 18 09:23 |
| matey | about half a dozen of which are not github-based | Apr 18 09:23 |
| matey | so | Apr 18 09:23 |
| matey | the ratio isnt changing like you say, if the fsd is any indicator | Apr 18 09:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | how many of these projects are new? | Apr 18 09:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | as in, past 3 years? | Apr 18 09:24 |
| matey | thats a fair question | Apr 18 09:24 |
| matey | probably most, since the links are being updated BUT | Apr 18 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's the "fresh blood" argument" | Apr 18 09:24 |
| matey | not all, and not a | Apr 18 09:24 |
| matey | well its your: "many of the newer projects explore self-hosting, even without gitlab" | Apr 18 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | about generations that are "next" having to be judged as "the future" | Apr 18 09:24 |
| matey | i think youre sugar-coating this | Apr 18 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | not really | Apr 18 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | when I first saw github things more than 10 years ago github was considered benign | Apr 18 09:25 |
| matey | ok, let me put it another way: i think youre making up progress that doesnt exist. | Apr 18 09:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | and many people saw it like twitter | Apr 18 09:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | "yay! free hosting!" | Apr 18 09:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | matey: ok, let's look at it from anotrher angle | Apr 18 09:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | they lost a lot of staff | Apr 18 09:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | even CEO | Apr 18 09:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | Windows market share is collapsing | Apr 18 09:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | and Azure did not live up to very old promises | Apr 18 09:26 |
| matey | mmhmm | Apr 18 09:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | they're losing development | Apr 18 09:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | and developers | Apr 18 09:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | 3 years after buying github where are they? | Apr 18 09:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | do people develop more for Windows? | Apr 18 09:26 |

| matey | the sheer apathy on the part of of so-called "free software" developers | Apr 18 09:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | there are many psyche types | Apr 18 09:30 |
| matey | 16 by jungs debunked model (i still like it though) | Apr 18 09:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | the hardcore free software people aren't the same as FSD | Apr 18 09:30 |

| matey | systemd-fsd | Apr 18 09:31 |
| matey | thats another thing though | Apr 18 09:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | if you look at the core GNU projects, a small proportion of them are themselves fully in github | Apr 18 09:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | they depend on some | Apr 18 09:31 |
| matey | ive been through a fuckload of gnu projects, looking up github accounts for admins | Apr 18 09:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | then you have gulag with quite a few of its own repos | Apr 18 09:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | ICBM also | Apr 18 09:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | Intel was infiltrated | Apr 18 09:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | so instead of in-house gitlab (like it used to be) they outsource to Microsoft | Apr 18 09:32 |
| matey | if you look at the core GNU projects, a small proportion of them are themselves fully in githu <- well, i mean | Apr 18 09:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | we published leaks to that effect | Apr 18 09:32 |
| matey | bison is necessary for a LOT of things | Apr 18 09:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | even gnome and kde make their own instances | Apr 18 09:33 |
| matey | the most core stuff for gnu is controlled by ibm | Apr 18 09:33 |
| *techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Apr 18 09:33 | |

| schestowitz-TR | there, many of the shithubbers are Gulag Summer of Labour interns | Apr 18 09:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | and even that is no longer the case, most of them learn the CIs of the projects | Apr 18 09:33 |
| matey | sourceware.org | Apr 18 09:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | credit to them, at least they made their own instance | Apr 18 09:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | eventually | Apr 18 09:34 |
| matey | red hat did, ibm bought it | Apr 18 09:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | when it comes to distros, it's usually the smaller ones outsourcing | Apr 18 09:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | for financial reasons, I guess | Apr 18 09:34 |
| matey | and im going to guess sourceware predates the github purchase (2018) if not github itself (2008) | Apr 18 09:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | IBM does some of its code hosting internally | Apr 18 09:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | some via GNU | Apr 18 09:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | some of the older stuff is shithub | Apr 18 09:35 |

| matey | The term "fedora" first emerged in the early 1890s, when it was connected with a play titled Fédora in which the famous cross-dressing actress Sarah Bernhardt wore a creased, soft felted hat. Until the point, soft felt hats were mostly worn by lower- and middle-class men who likely owned only one hat that needed to be multi-purpose. | Apr 18 10:14 |

| activelow | anyway, this means, a traditional *nix without any c++ dependency can be maintained, including X11, mplayer, web browser, irc, mail | Apr 18 17:16 |
| activelow | if the fontconfig/gperf dependency can be repaired (not sure how yet), then GTK2 (or 3) can remain, including netsurf and various other goodies | Apr 18 17:17 |
| activelow | i mean, even RISC OS includes an undesireable c++ compiler, not sure what depends on it, nonetheless, baphos is stricter in this regard | Apr 18 17:18 |

| activelow | and gladly i wasn't hitting any cmake dependency so far, which will be another burden, excluding various desireable components, because cmake itself is written in c++ and there isn't any alternative implementation | Apr 18 17:20 |
| BzOS | netsurf latest release is from 2 years ago | Apr 18 17:20 |
| activelow | i fetched latest git-head, while ago | Apr 18 17:22 |
| activelow | and, stability is _good_ | Apr 18 17:22 |
| activelow | got an idea how many updates are necessary if c++ dependencies are exluded? rarely any in years, which is exactly what i want. | Apr 18 17:23 |
| activelow | and, if GNOME/GTK are wrecked (systemd/dbus/opengl dependencies), at least some ultra-conservative stable system can remain | Apr 18 17:25 |
| activelow | some other components are a headache still, which may or may not be necessary: ghostscript/LaTex/texlive | Apr 18 17:26 |
| activelow | because, the idea is, such a system _must_ remain capable for scientific work and authoring | Apr 18 17:26 |
| activelow | i see Knuth released his original TeX variant with an incompatible license; i'll know soon enough, if it is sufficient for a markdown/tex/html authoring workflow | Apr 18 17:27 |
| activelow | postscript is probably gone, yet printing onto 9pin matrix printer wouldn't require postscript | Apr 18 17:28 |
| activelow | i must admit, GTK2/3 are desireable, yet as said i have no idea yet, to easily cope with gperf (and who knows what else will be hitting other c++ dependencies, such as cmake) | Apr 18 17:29 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, The service advisor gave me some good advice on the TPMS sensors. | Apr 18 20:51 |
| DaemonFC | He says the tires are already on the car and there's no chance to combine labor, so if the light comes back, the low battery code is on the sensor in the front right tire, so just replace that one and maybe you need new tires or something before the other ones die. | Apr 18 20:52 |

| DaemonFC | So replacing one sensor now to get the light to stay off and revisiting the situation in a few years when it needs tires again might be the way to go. | Apr 18 20:53 |

| DaemonFC | The fact that they had to go down to Joliet over a stupid tensioner pulley is unsettling though. | Apr 18 22:11 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, They had to go down 80 miles and back to get a Chevy part for me? | Apr 18 22:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: live and learn | Apr 18 22:13 |
| DaemonFC | Well, they had to charge what the book said to, so their problem there isn't exactly my problem. | Apr 18 22:13 |
| DaemonFC | The fact that it took them 2 hours to get the part. | Apr 18 22:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | and so your purchase is becoming chevy patchwork | Apr 18 22:14 |
| DaemonFC | Well, not exactly. | Apr 18 22:14 |
| DaemonFC | The Buick Lacrosse is basically a fancy Chevy Impala. | Apr 18 22:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | old cars, old parts | Apr 18 22:14 |
| DaemonFC | So they share many parts. | Apr 18 22:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | with "smart" cars it'll be worse | Apr 18 22:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | good luck getting parts from just 10 years ago | Apr 18 22:14 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, You can go into the aftermarket for most stuff all the way back as far as you want to go. | Apr 18 22:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | yesterday I walked to 7 stores | Apr 18 22:15 |
| DaemonFC | So I'm not terribly concerned just yet. If I absolutely needed to, I could use an auto parts store tensioner instead of a OE one. | Apr 18 22:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | saved like 80% | Apr 18 22:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | with cars and parking that's harder | Apr 18 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | Mechanical parts have a huge aftermarket. | Apr 18 22:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | and in manchester city center there's almost nowhere to park | Apr 18 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | You can sell so many of the damned things because the Impala and Lacrosse used the same tensioner for like 11 model years. | Apr 18 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | And the Impala is a fleet vehicle. | Apr 18 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | So lots of people buy those used, right, like old cop cars? | Apr 18 22:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | not all cops are old :-) | Apr 18 22:17 |
| DaemonFC | The Lacrosse is just an Impala with better suspension and more features and stuff. | Apr 18 22:17 |
| DaemonFC | Better interior, trim. | Apr 18 22:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | so Lacrosse is a rich fool's product | Apr 18 22:18 |
| DaemonFC | Sort of, yeah. | Apr 18 22:18 |
| DaemonFC | But luxury cars lose value rapidly. | Apr 18 22:18 |
| techrights-news | "This release contains bug fixes to improve robustness and some additional configuration support. This release note describes what’s different between Istio 1.13.2 and 1.13.3." https://istio.io/latest/news/releases/1.13.x/announcing-1.13.3/ | Apr 18 22:18 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-istio.io | Istio / Announcing Istio 1.13.3 | Apr 18 22:18 | |
| DaemonFC | But the nice thing about the Lacrosse or Grand Marquis is they were built on top of the Impala or Crown Victoria. | Apr 18 22:18 |
| DaemonFC | So you can service the luxury car with mass market parts. | Apr 18 22:18 |
| DaemonFC | Can't do that with most luxury cars so you are screwed. | Apr 18 22:19 |
| DaemonFC | The Sable was an upmarket Taurus, and so on. | Apr 18 22:19 |
| DaemonFC | If you get a luxury car, make sure they built it off something mass market so there's like, opportunities to dig into the aftermarket and leverage scale. | Apr 18 22:19 |
| DaemonFC | That way you can keep it going for a long time without any $1,200 MARISOL wheel hub bearings. | Apr 18 22:20 |
| DaemonFC | $600 an axle MARISOL brake pads. | Apr 18 22:20 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Even at the Chevy dealer, which is terribly overpriced for brake pads, it's $249 an axle, and a wheel hub bearing is like $400. | Apr 18 22:21 |
| DaemonFC | And so you can take your Buick there and just tell them to service it there if you want, or an independent, and get it for even less. | Apr 18 22:21 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Hell, fuck, you can take the Buick to Midas and get $99 an axle brake pads. | Apr 18 22:22 |
| DaemonFC | They won't be top of the line, but they'll work okay. | Apr 18 22:22 |
| DaemonFC | Can't do that with a Beemer. | Apr 18 22:22 |
| DaemonFC | They have to be BMW brake pads. | Apr 18 22:22 |
| DaemonFC | If your mechanic does the job, the only thing you save on is labor. | Apr 18 22:22 |
| DaemonFC | He still has to go to a dealer and buy BMW pads. | Apr 18 22:22 |
| DaemonFC | So he goes to their parts department and BMW gets you anway. | Apr 18 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | *anyway | Apr 18 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Then there's the $300 BMW oil change. | Apr 18 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | And so a bunch of BMW victims noticed BMW using Castrol synthetic and go "Why the fuck am I paying $300 for this guy to pour Castrol in?". | Apr 18 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | So they go to Jiffy Lube and have them pour in Castrol Syntec, which is a synthetic oil meant for American cars, and it went ahead and sludged up their BMW engine. | Apr 18 22:24 |
| DaemonFC | And they didn't save much money then. | Apr 18 22:24 |
| DaemonFC | You can use Euro Castrol in an American car if you want to. | Apr 18 22:25 |
| DaemonFC | It won't hurt anything as long as the viscosity is correct. | Apr 18 22:25 |
| DaemonFC | But you can't use cheaper synthetic oils meant for an American car in a BMW. | Apr 18 22:25 |

| DaemonFC | Jiffy Lube talked this guy I was dating into some dumbass "engine flush" procedure. | Apr 18 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | And after they did it and charged him $100, he could not add oil fast enough to the engine. | Apr 18 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | And I said, "Your van is a Chrysler and it somehow made it to 375,000 miles, God knows how, without any trouble, and you thought pouring harsh chemicals in it was going to improve something?". | Apr 18 22:30 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Actually, out of all the things the squealing could have been today, I got off relatively light. | Apr 18 22:31 |
| DaemonFC | The only cheaper part it could have been was the idler pulley. | Apr 18 22:31 |
| DaemonFC | Everything else is like alternator, air conditioner compressor, water pump.... | Apr 18 22:32 |
| DaemonFC | You need to make those expensive parts happy by not killing them with cheaper parts that you're not servicing. | Apr 18 22:32 |
| DaemonFC | Like, bad batteries will kill an alternator by overworking it. | Apr 18 22:32 |
| DaemonFC | Bad brake fluid will eventually corrode everything. | Apr 18 22:32 |
| DaemonFC | And the manufacturer's don't help anything, schestowitz-TR | Apr 18 22:33 |
| DaemonFC | They don't mention brake fluid changes at all. | Apr 18 22:33 |
| DaemonFC | They're deleting references to "service automatic transmission",. | Apr 18 22:33 |
| *Seaduck- has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Apr 18 22:33 | |

| MinceR | 18 232710 < DaemonFC> Yeah, that happens when the engine burns up every 7 years. | Apr 18 22:41 |
| MinceR | also when parts are at a brutal markup | Apr 18 22:41 |

| DaemonFC | *May be in shop on alternating days. | Apr 18 22:48 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, The alternator looks newer than everything else in the engine compartment. | Apr 18 22:49 |
| DaemonFC | My guess is someone has changed that recently and nobody logged it. | Apr 18 22:49 |
| DaemonFC | There's a couple of "Inspect engine electrical components" in the carfax history, but that can mean anything. | Apr 18 22:50 |
