| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I'd like to see more laptops coming with a KDE distribution. It's a shame KDE doesn't get more attention these days. Means I'm still going to have to do something with it after I buy it. | Oct 19 17:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But the defaults never work out for everyone I guess. It could be worse. All kinds of shitty firmware and bugs and an OEM going "Well, we sold it with Windows 10, so....". | Oct 19 17:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | About that Windows Calculator on Linux thing..... | Oct 19 17:28 |
| schestowitz | I did many memes | Oct 19 17:28 |
| schestowitz | could not be bothered doing a detailed takedown | Oct 19 17:28 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, you can, but why? Are the currency conversions even accurate? | Oct 19 17:28 |
| schestowitz | or add links to the BS spam | Oct 19 17:28 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Currency floats against each other. | Oct 19 17:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | At various times, the Pound has floated between like about $2 and close to parity. | Oct 19 17:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You kind of want to know your conversion is right, I'm assuming. | Oct 19 17:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Otherwise, what's the point of even having that? Google has daily updates so you know you're at least going to be close. | Oct 19 17:30 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Currency exchanges aren't really a good measure of how many of what goods and services each one will buy, just how many of one you can get for the other. | Oct 19 17:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's more of a policy thing with each government than it is anything else, but it's what it would take to square up a payment if you do business with each other. | Oct 19 17:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | When Mandrake Linux was around, there was a penalty for buying the PowerPack in dollars. | Oct 19 17:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The Euro was severely overvalued for years and it was because there was speculation that the underlying economies were healthy and that the Eurozone would keep growing. | Oct 19 17:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Now, there was Greece and Spain (mostly) which turned out to be outright lying about their public finances to get in. | Oct 19 17:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The zone has been in recession for some time. | Oct 19 17:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The benchmark rates have been negative while the inflationary policies try to stimulate an economic zone that isn't (overall) growing, the UK left (and was never going to adopt the Euro anyway), and the ECB has gotten very cautious about potentially bringing in another Greece and that's why MinceR isn't using the Euro. | Oct 19 17:35 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But back to the Windows calculator. As part of Windows, Microsoft probably pushing updates to the currency conversions every so often. Will this Snap store "Uno Calculator"? | Oct 19 17:35 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Most math functions involve dealing with constant and immutable facts, but currency exchange values fluctuate every few seconds. | Oct 19 17:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Even with regular math calculations, Microsoft's floating point routines have led to some spectacular rounding errors. | Oct 19 17:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They special cased some of the most horrific ones that no human would ever make, but who knows what's hiding in there? | Oct 19 17:38 |

| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I hurt my back pretty bad moving this mattress into the motel room, but I got a really great deal on the mattress. | Oct 19 17:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Mandy's going to have to help me when it's moving day though. | Oct 19 17:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: There's tv ads where you can volunteer to test the COVID-19 vaccine. | Oct 19 17:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There's just too many ways it could go wrong. | Oct 19 17:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | And it's not at all clear that I would get any sort of ongoing medical care or compensation if it seriously injures me. | Oct 19 18:00 |

| DaemonFC[m] | With no guarantee that they would even pay my medical bills if the vaccine puts me in the hospital, I cannot risk volunteering to test it. | Oct 19 18:01 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They're asking a nation of people who get $100,000 bills for being in the hospital to test a vaccine that they've never made before, which is giving at least half the people who take it serious side effects. | Oct 19 18:03 |

| DaemonFC[m] | I really like Ellen McLain, at least from her public appearances/Youtube videos. | Oct 19 18:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I don't think they could have had anyone else nail the voice of GLaDOS. | Oct 19 18:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They should really have her do the voice work for the Google Assistant. | Oct 19 18:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Part of what made her so hilarious was her insistence that there would be a cake at the end of ll of that agony, such torture, such hell. | Oct 19 18:18 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then at the end, Chell just gets knocked out and dragged back to the stasis chamber by the "party escort robot". | Oct 19 18:19 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Such is life. | Oct 19 18:19 |
| MinceR | maybe it's a single-party state | Oct 19 18:19 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'm going to go on a "cash diet" for a while. | Oct 19 18:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I didn't notice, but the state was sneaking in a "grocery pickup tax" onto my online orders that was eating up most of the bonus points anyway. | Oct 19 18:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So that someone at the store could completely fuck everything up beyond repair and give me part of my order. | Oct 19 18:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: I didn't notice until this morning. | Oct 19 18:21 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I put the items in my grocery pickup cart on the app and the total came to $14.78 but then when I bought the items in the store, they all had the same item prices but it only worked out to $13.52. | Oct 19 18:22 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So fuck the pickup thing. If all it does is feed my credit card points to the state of Illinois for trying to avoid the Coronavirus, and I have to go inside anyway. | Oct 19 18:22 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Recounts do get ugly. | Oct 19 19:07 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Typically, when the new results from a hand recount come in, the margin changes by hundreds of votes. | Oct 19 19:08 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The intent of the voter is what matters. If that can be conclusively determined, it can change the result from what the optical scanner decided was an invalid ballot. | Oct 19 19:08 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But really, you're asking for a recount because there's people out there who are too stupid to follow simple instructions. | Oct 19 19:08 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But if you're the one who lost by a few hundred votes the first count, then there's nothing to lose by requesting a recount. | Oct 19 19:09 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Maybe more of your voters than the other guy's are too dumb to mark a ballot properly. | Oct 19 19:09 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Really, the Democrats set themselves up for nasty recounts this year by encouraging mail ballots. | Oct 19 19:10 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You can't mark it wrong if you're using an electronic touch screen and then verify the printout is correct before feeding it into the optical scanner. | Oct 19 19:11 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I think what the Democrats are going for is shock and awe. | Oct 19 19:11 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Dump an enormous amount of ballots in the mail quickly before anyone could possibly change their mind or not get around to voting, etc. | Oct 19 19:12 |
