SomeH4x0r

most people from UplinkIRC who bother to install proper IRC client usually don't stay for long, so idk

matey

the thing is, you cant do some languages without it

activelow

besides the political nuance

matey

i mean you could if you forket it

matey

but like, if you want to do arabic. or hindi.

matey

good luck without harfbuzz

matey

and i fucking hate it

activelow

to keep X11 with a terminal emulator, i chose an rxvt fork, which even got CJK, and greek if desired

SomeH4x0r

a few days most of the time

matey

its github. its anti-rms (like gnupg)

matey

obviously in the vt harfbuzz serves no purpose

SomeH4x0r

what did GnuPG do against rms?

matey

as far as i know... this means the vt cannot do arabic or hindi. which is quite interesting imo

activelow

now, please, explain to me, why arab/farsi/hindi require harfbuzz/c++ and sabotated GTK2/3 with it

matey

<SomeH4x0r> what did GnuPG do against rms? <- nothing, just koch did

matey

first, he stabbed stallman in the back

matey

then, he stabbed gnu in the back

activelow

appropos GPG, i kept v1.4 of it, and blacklisted gpg-2

matey

does that work? security wise?

SomeH4x0r

is Koch the leader of the project or someone else?

matey

is Koch the leader of the project <- very much so!

activelow

yes matey, and integration with the software i chose is perfect

matey

but the point is, i still have gnupg in my fork of the fsd (under protest)

matey

because we actually need it

matey

similarly, if you want to write in hindi

matey

you need harfbuzz

matey

which i fucking hate

matey

but i can find no way around it. maybe some clever person can, godspeed

activelow

to write hindi, it must be implemented without any c++ dependency graph

activelow

which greek and cjk could too

matey

to write hindi, it must be implemented without any c++ dependency graph <- only for you, you know

matey

i mean, i appreciate what youre doing wrt c++

matey

but i havent personally blacklisted it yet, you know

activelow

c++ is only one acceptance criteria, besides the chaos inside GTK2/3

matey

like the real problem here is gcc AND llvm

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

activelow

and for the hindi/farsi whatnot support, GTK2/3 was sabotaged

matey

besides the chaos inside GTK2/3 <- well, wrt gtk 2/3

matey

i wont do gtk4 except for 3 applications.

matey

thats it

matey

the rest are dead

matey

i dont like gtk3, id rather use gtk2.

matey

and id rather not use gtk2, but a fork of it might be ok if it ever moves the fuck off github

activelow

reminder, GTK devs did implement gobject to _avoid_ c++; and then one maniac screwed harfbuzz into, and with it two decades of man power are void

matey

reminder, GTK devs did implement gobject to _avoid_ c++ <- i mean, gnome is fuckity fucking fuck, to put it nicely

activelow

not GNOME, GTK

matey

gtk shouldnt be gnome, wasnt gnome, it is now

matey

listen, theyre the same thing now

activelow

i mean, QT4/5 were gone already, and i hoped for GTK2/3 could remain

matey

no gtk without gnome (anymore) unless its mate

matey

i mean, QT4/5 were gone already, and i hoped for GTK2/3 could remain <- i hear you

activelow

and i still think it is possible to fix this issue, yet it is too many to cope with

matey

its a fucking disaster

matey

and i still think it is possible to fix this issue <- SO DO I, fuck knows how, but somehow, yes

activelow

i had wanted to hack TinyCC many weeks ago already... see the shit i have to cope with instead

matey

yes, i hear you

matey

even those who criticise you on the details must know

matey

the overall picture is about as ridiculous as you say

matey

maybe not exactly the same, but

matey

if any of my associates ask me, ill tell them

matey

the overall picture is more or less like you say

matey

with some caveats

matey

i mean if you can nitpick i can nitpick

matey

but its a disaster, just as you say

techrights-news

My 3 weeks with the SlimeVR open source full-body tracker gemini://gemini.clehaxze.tw/gemlog/2022/04-20-my-three-weeks-with-slimevr.gmi

matey

and i think people are coming to realise this. not fast enough-- its nothing to be hopeful about yet

matey

but its not like its JUST YOU saying this

matey

or only you that thinks this (overall)

matey

we can disagree on details

matey

"its a bad scene"

matey

everyones looking for a way for things to be "fine"

*techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@s44cwn8sugddy.irc) has joined #techrights

matey

use bsd and its fine. well, almost. sort of.

matey

not quite "fine" but some move in that direction

matey

with a lot of work, of course

activelow

bsd -> llvm, no thanks

matey

i know, llvm is shit

matey

i had no idea how bad it was

matey

its pretty bleak, the fuck were they thinking?

activelow

i don't say it is, i am not against c++, i am against it being _enforced_ where it does not belong, such as into kernel

matey

bad enough it was github, but ffs

matey

i am not against c++, i am against it being _enforced_ where it does not belong <- i know

activelow

if kernel can be compiled with a c++ compiler only, that's unacceptable

matey

its the lack of options that makes the whole thing a farce

matey

you have freedom 3 in theory, and in practice you can shove llvm up your arse, wheeeeeee

matey

its gotchas over here, over there, its a gotcha block party

activelow

anyway, i'll remove gtk, and live with it

activelow

i'll not bother with this anymore

matey

anyway, i'll remove gtk, and live with it \o/

activelow

i'll not at least bother with anything outside the base system

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, ^

activelow

X11 isn't as important, nonetheless, it is nice to have it, with a terminal emulator supporting CJK and greek

matey

flush, flush

matey

hurry hurry baby, run to me

matey

ooh. what ya do to me

activelow

i'll give Knuth TeX a try, although it is not compatible with GPL, at least chances are i can keep it

matey

although it is not compatible with GPL <- im sceptical, how is it incompatible?

activelow

^ Knuth license

matey

hmmmmmm

activelow

it isn't any problem for me

DaemonFC

This will be the third flush in a week.

activelow

i'll comply with his license terms

DaemonFC

Actually, more than that.

schestowitz-TR

Knuth license??

matey

Unlimited copying and redistribution of this package and/or its individual files are permitted as long as there are no modifications. Modifications, and redistribution of modifications, are also permitted, but only if the resulting package and/or files are renamed

DaemonFC

Car-X charged me like $99 for the first one, then I lost coolant with the tensioner job at Chevy, then Chevy flushed it again today for free and got the heater working for a few minutes.

activelow

and, given Knuth promises his software and books do not contain errors, chances are no chances are necessary

https://www.ctan.org/license/knuth

matey

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.ctan.org | CTAN: Knuth License

DaemonFC

Then tomorrow Chevy does the Blue Devil flush and I'm hoping that eats up all the yummy yummy DexCool mud.

activelow

schestowitz-TR: Knuth license is permissive, yet re-distribution with _changes_ is only permitted if renamed

activelow

meaning, you must not label it Knuth TeX if anything was altered

DaemonFC

I guess the upside here is that all of the larger crap is out because anything that came out with the regular flush is already gone.

DaemonFC

So all the Blue Devil has to eat is what's left that's plugging the system.

matey

thats a non-free license thats almost free in spirit (but it doesnt fit the fsd as far as i can tell)

Apr 20 00:17

activelow

i think Knuth is concerned with introduction of bugs, which aren't a feature

Apr 20 00:17

schestowitz-TR

weird licence

DaemonFC

I can see why they were calling this stuff DeathCool.

DaemonFC

Glad I have the enhanced engine gaskets so a plugged up heater core is the worst of it. :P

matey

there are SIMILAR clauses in (gpl compatible) cc by-sa (4.0 only) but youre only required to NOTE changes, not name files based on them

matey

and that makes a world of difference

matey

at least in terms of whether its fsd-compatible or not

activelow

i'll know soon enough, given Knuth TeX was introduced 1976, 45years ago, if it is functional still

schestowitz-TR

it's just another redundant licence

schestowitz-TR

maybe for DOnald's ego

matey

http://tug.ctan.org/info/impatient/book.pdf TEX for the Impatient is intended to serve scientists, mathematicians, and technical typists for whom TEX is a useful tool rather than a primary interest, as well as computer people who have a strong interest in TEX for its own sake. We also intend it to serve both newcomers to TEX and those who are already familiar with TEX.

schestowitz-TR

a lot of licences already cover the branding aspects

matey

<schestowitz-TR> maybe for DOnald's ego <- no

matey

it was for reliability

schestowitz-TR

it I alter firefox a little I cannot call it firefox either

matey

but misguided imo

activelow

and i do not know yet, if/how postscript output can be generated without any c++ dependency (gnuplot,ghostscript)

matey

it achieves his goal but

schestowitz-TR

and I don't need an old stanford professor to make another licence for that

matey

that doesnt mean its not overkill

matey

and I don't need an old stanford professor <- knuth is up there with stallman in importance

schestowitz-TR

yes, I know

matey

that doesnt mean i think this was a good idea, but give the man his due

schestowitz-TR

but we don't have the RMS licence

matey

oh youre making too much of a name

activelow

problem isn't the Knuth license, problem is his TeX isn't maintained inside the gentoo tree here

schestowitz-TR

imagine if each project had it own licence -- or worse -- each developer

matey

look, science names things after people all the time

schestowitz-TR

it would be disarray for code reusew

matey

only this movement finds it garish

matey

i get it, i agree mostly

matey

but that doesnt make knuth an egotist, just a scientist.

matey

different culture.

matey

its not about his ego

matey

its about cultural norms

schestowitz-TR

rms and knuth both like their word

schestowitz-TR

*work

schestowitz-TR

nothing wrong with that

schestowitz-TR

and they protect their image to the best of their abilities

schestowitz-TR

the licence, however, leads to practical problems

matey

of course

schestowitz-TR

like having to keep track of which licence is what

matey

its an unfortunate license at best

matey

well, to be fair

schestowitz-TR

perens spoke about it

schestowitz-TR

wanting to narrow it down to 3 licences

matey

im guessing this predates osi

matey

and anyone giving a shit what perens thinks

matey

maybe im wrong about the timing

matey

when computer science was younger, we didnt have best practices like gpl compatibility. it didnt exist yet

matey

its like expecting multics to be posix compliant

matey

or dtss

matey

posix didnt exist yet

matey

so things that were revolutionary for their time, seem conservative or misguided now

matey

thats progress

matey

but you have to keep them in some context when judging the people who made these decisions

schestowitz-TR

latex I've not used in years

schestowitz-TR

but that's mostly because I don't write letters or papers

matey

tex is still highly relevant, there are gny projects associated with it

schestowitz-TR

latex will not age gracefully outside academia

schestowitz-TR

because of all this clown and web hype

matey

my guess is that tex is so important, that whats more important than knuths license or its implementation-- is compatible software

schestowitz-TR

they teach people to not have files, either

schestowitz-TR

just open "account"

matey

<schestowitz-TR> latex will not age gracefully outside academia <- i dont know what makes you think that

schestowitz-TR

knuth did a lot of literature on algorithms

schestowitz-TR

latex may not be his most important contribution

activelow

LaTeX/xetex/jadetex/... texlive -> c++

matey

yes, einstein did a lot of literature on physics

schestowitz-TR

and leslie sold out to the criminals from microsoft about 15 years ago

matey

<schestowitz-TR> knuth did a lot of literature on algorithms <- for a german thats a very british level of understatement

matey

<schestowitz-TR> and leslie sold out <- leslie who

schestowitz-TR

matey

oh yeah

schestowitz-TR

I did not spend much time studying kile

schestowitz-TR

the latax toolset seems to not be evolving anymore

schestowitz-TR

maybe it's considered feature-complete

matey

im not sure it ought to

matey

what the industry deems "evolution" looks a lot like inbreeding to me

schestowitz-TR

except when they will nee EMOJIS inside equations

matey

<schestowitz-TR> maybe it's considered feature-complete <- when things are actually planned top to bottom, thats a reasonable conclusion

Apr 20 00:29

matey

theres an aspect of computer science that is actually scientific

Apr 20 00:29

matey

and then the rest of course, is industry bullshit. by and large.

Apr 20 00:29

matey

science evolves, but not via fashion.

Apr 20 00:30

matey

fashion "evolves" more quickly, because a lot of it is arbitrary

Apr 20 00:30

matey

industry is where the tension between the two is most pronounced

Apr 20 00:31

matey

when industry talks about evolution, you should just put your hand over its mouth-- or at least over your ears

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.w3.org | WebAssembly 2.0 First Public Working Drafts | W3C News

DaemonFC

It can make a fairly reasonable guess as to how often you really need an oil change.

DaemonFC

You need to check the level occasionally, but other than that, listening to a modern oil service life monitor isn't unreasonable.

Apr 20 00:35

DaemonFC

In many cases, the sticker will say every 5,000 miles, but the car will be able to come up with a figure higher than that, like 7,000 or more.

Apr 20 00:35

DaemonFC

It's important because oil changes do cost money.

Apr 20 00:35

DaemonFC

If you can get 7,000 instead of 5,000, that might get you all through the year.

i can appreciate what hes trying to do. not that i want a buick per se

That's pretty crazy considering it's an Impala and this was well before Bidenflation and what GM has become.

schestowitz-TR

we don't know yet how much this car will cost

schestowitz-TR

it's work in progress

we don't know yet how much this car will cost <- no, so you make the best decision out of the options available

somehow thats not good enough for you

DaemonFC

With useless warranties that they marked up by triple.

problem isn't if any of the recent "innovations" are wrecked, problem is if long-term stable software is unmaintained, is rotting, and disappears

DaemonFC

LTS releases are crusty by design.

DaemonFC

The banks don't even support ESR releases of Firefox.

DaemonFC

They yell at you to use the latest one.

DaemonFC

Even though the ESR is supported and nothing about the site's code has changed recently.

matey

i think lts was invented because ubuntu was based on testing in the first palce

activelow

firefox never was LTS/ESR etc.

matey

debian already had stable

matey

then ubuntu was like "testing is stable enough"

"no wait, wait, heres lts"

matey

to be fair, most (if not all) of the limitations apply to the vt as well

Apr 20 00:53

activelow

too much confusion, i mean, fontconfig/freetype are available, yet there is more: cairo, pango, harfbuzz... no idea why

Apr 20 00:53

matey

so if youre happy not running x, you should be happy with xterm (of course you should also have options)

activelow

then for X11, there is libxft, which is optional, to choose and render fonts

matey

cairo, pango, harfbuzz... no idea why <- we keep explaining why harfbuzz, at least

matey

i dont even want to

activelow

i do not need X11, yet X11 is available, including unicode fonts, which doesn't require any of this: cairo, pango, harfbuzz

Apr 20 00:55

matey

but its there, and pretending it serves no purpose wont make it so

Apr 20 00:55

matey

the vt does not give a better experience than x without harfbuzz, so if youre happy with xterm as your standard of displaying unicode (it displays some) then harfbuzz isnt necessary

Apr 20 00:55

MinceR

allegedly harfbuzz is necessary for the correct rendering of text for scripts such as arabic and indic

matey

this is phrased as "if" with good reason

activelow

xterm would be possible too, yet i do not trust the Unix98 pty implementation of linux kernel (security), so i am using BSD pty offered by kernel

activelow

and xterm dropped support for those...

matey

<MinceR> allegedly harfbuzz is necessary for the correct rendering of text for scripts such as arabic and indic <- i mean i made a virtual keyboard and saw it for myself.

matey

i hate harfbuzz, id LOVE to say why its useless

matey

i approach this scientifically. i dont always like the results.

MinceR

say it, then

matey

i dont like the author, i dont like the software

matey

let me know if you can display hindi or arabic properly without it

matey

i think youll find you have problems doing so

matey

but fuck would i love to be wrong

matey

the good news is that its possible to speak hindi without using its own alphabet

matey

using just qzawsxedcrfvtgbyhnujmikolp

matey

but if you want devanagari...

matey

the vt wont do it properly

matey: i would be curious myself, yet the question of hindi/farsi/arab etc. are agnostic towards unicode

matey

neither will my favourite toolkit for x, which is tk (which is hindi for "alright")

matey

tk theek hai

activelow

if i got a unicode-capable terminal, with a font, then it will render this

matey

because tk doesnt use harfbuzz

matey

but gtk (and gnome and kde and firefux and even emacs) does

activelow

with rxvt, fontconfig/freetype/unicode are possible... so what's missing except for a font?

matey

so what's missing except for a font? <- the ability to combine glyphs.

Apr 20 01:00

activelow

some problem could be the orientation right->left, yet, that's none of my concerns

matey

that's none of my concerns <- im pretty sure xterm can do left to right

matey

just not in the same way :)

activelow

if hindi/farsi/arab/hebrew want it, they can implement it themselves, without sabotaging GTK

matey

/me can write a program easily enough in his own language that does right to left

activelow

because, for them to read their hyroglyphs, they did it, sabotage GTK

matey

s/left to right/right to left/

matey

for them to read their hyroglyphs, they did it, sabotage GTK <- not hieroglyphs

matey

id be perfectly happy using a fork of harfbuzz

activelow

hieroglyphs

matey

its only unfortunate because microsoft controls it and some arsehole wrote it

activelow

it is ok, and necessary, to support it, it is _not_ ok to sabotage free software with it

matey

other than that, its not actually useless. I WISH IT WAS

matey

it is _not_ ok to sabotage free software with it <- i mean, you can use tk and be rid of it

matey

you can use the vt and be rid of it

matey

even with emacs

matey

just dont compile for x

activelow

X11 isn't the problem; it is GTK

MinceR

arabic does not only write from right to left, but also renders letters differently at the start, middle and end of word

MinceR

maybe also differently when they stand alone

activelow

they sabotaged GTK

activelow

(besides QT4/5 which are long gone before)

MinceR

iirc devanagari likes to combine glyphs

matey

sabotaged = supported more languages

matey

<MinceR> iirc devanagari likes to combine glyphs <- this is what i found when i combined them, yes

activelow

with sabotaged i mean sabotaged

activelow

they can support as many languages as they want, without sabotage

activelow

yet, they chose to sabotage

activelow

with the excuse, it was necessary, for their higher intellect of language

matey

<activelow> with sabotaged i mean sabotaged https://yewtu.be/watch?v=3MWpHQQ-wQg

matey, The hood struts from China arrived today.

DaemonFC

The Chevy guy said he'd just put them on and not charge me to do it.

matey

he must appreciate what youre doing

matey

or find it funny, or both

DaemonFC

Because my car is a "hazard" to the shop employees and it's a quick job.

matey

heh

DaemonFC

Well, hey, they wanted to charge me $100 to do it a few days ago.

DaemonFC

Glad I held out.

matey

thats great

DaemonFC

I told him I already had some coming in from China.

matey

Because my car is a "hazard" <- think they mean youre trouble

DaemonFC

So they'll just take care of that tomorrow.

MinceR

duke of hazard

Apr 20 01:08

matey

maybe they saw the picture i put up behind the counter

Apr 20 01:08

matey

"just be nice to him and dont try to rip him off"

Apr 20 01:08

DaemonFC

I bought some more waterless car wash spray.

Apr 20 01:09

DaemonFC

If I get it on Walmart it's 15% off because of my credit card and Mandy's discount.

Apr 20 01:09

matey

whats in it

DaemonFC

There's about enough in each spray bottle to do a full cleaning of the car about 6 times. It costs me $7.09 a bottle after discount.

matey

so just over a dollar a wash

DaemonFC

So about $1.18 or so per wash vs paying the car wash $10.

matey

right

DaemonFC

I brought in the pile of microfiber cloths after going over the cars really good and put them in a bucket with Persil and took a toilet plunger and bounced them around in the hot water a couple times.

Apr 20 01:11

DaemonFC

Then dumped it all in the bushes out back.

Apr 20 01:11

DaemonFC

We're not fancy.

Apr 20 01:11

DaemonFC

Then I hooked up my portable washing machine once I got all the really nasty stuff out of them, and washed them all in hot water with 4 rinse cycles, then spun dry.

Apr 20 01:12

DaemonFC

Landlord pays for the water.

Apr 20 01:12

DaemonFC

So it's $1.18 plus electric to run the washer. Maybe $1.20 per wash. :)

Apr 20 01:12

DaemonFC

That's pretty cheap.

Apr 20 01:13

DaemonFC

I can wash the car about 7 or 8 months out of the year.

Apr 20 01:13

DaemonFC

If I was going through the wash every week paying $10 each, that's about 35 washes at the car wash rounded up a little.

Apr 20 01:13

DaemonFC

Or $350.

DaemonFC

I can do them myself for $42.

matey

math isnt my strong suit, but i think if you didnt get the discount it would still be less than $1.50

matey

maybe a dime less

DaemonFC

Then the last 4 months when it's cold and they spray salt and shit everywhere, I can subscribe to the car wash and go through it every day.

matey

per wash

DaemonFC

If I need to.

matey

there you go

matey

youre like tully in ghostbusters

matey

you would have made a killer accountant

DaemonFC

That takes me from $450 in car washing expenses per year to something more like $162.

matey

he was always finding ways to do more and have it cost less

DaemonFC

Saving $288, assuming that they don't raise the price at the car wash again.

DaemonFC

Things are crazy.

DaemonFC

I can stock up on car wash spray now.

matey

good stuff

DaemonFC

Mom's one of those old "Change the oil every 3,000 miles" people who doesn't do anything else to the car. Takes it to Walmart.

Apr 20 01:17

matey

youre sure this wash is good enough to prevent things like rust?

Apr 20 01:17

DaemonFC

Walmart charges her $48, which is only $11 less than paying the Chevy dealer to do it properly with the correct parts.

Apr 20 01:17

DaemonFC

She spends about $200 a year on oil changes when about $90 (1.5 changes per year on average) would suffice, and be done right, at the dealer.

Apr 20 01:18

DaemonFC

<matey> youre sure this wash is good enough to prevent things like rust?

DaemonFC

In the summer there's really not much on the road that risks severe corrosion.

DaemonFC

That's what the car wash subscription in the winter months will be for.

matey

in winter you take it to the car-- right

DaemonFC

Yeah, you get the cheapest subscription that includes undercarriage wash.

DaemonFC

And you go through every day letting it high pressure flush all of the salt out.

matey

there you go. you run your car costs like i run my computer.

matey

always looking for savings

DaemonFC

I did not anticipate needing 2 coolant flushes and a super flush in a week!

DaemonFC

That's never happened....

matey

does flushing too often cause problems? it must. note im not implying you do it too often

matey

im sure you wouldnt

DaemonFC

It doesn't.

matey

okay

DaemonFC

The lady left it in there probably 14 years.

DaemonFC

Long enough to separate and sludge.

matey

yeah

DaemonFC

When I flushed it, it plugged the heater core.

matey

heh

DaemonFC

With DexCool, they say 5 years, but I'd say if you want your car to last, do it every 2.

DaemonFC

Or else you might need the super flush every 3-4 years to get the heater to go again.

DaemonFC

On one of their newer ones that seem to sludge after 4 years.

Apr 20 01:22

DaemonFC

You don't want the $249 super flush every 4 years and pray they don't have to swap out the heater core for $1,200 anyway.

Apr 20 01:22

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

You want the $99 coolant flush special every 2 years.

matey

you know ive never had a car

matey

so i follow this on and off

DaemonFC

I've never had one with DexCrap in it.

matey

ive also never hiked the appalachian trail, but i enjoyed "walk in the woods" by bill bryson enough

DaemonFC

I'm strongly considering having them use green if they have it in stock after this sludge mess is purged.

DaemonFC

Or at least yellow.

DaemonFC

Maybe yellow.

DaemonFC

Yeah, yellow wouldn't cause a disaster if there's a little DexCrap left in there.

matey

/me thinks of soylent

matey

whats the difference between yellow and green?

DaemonFC

I wonder if they'd let me bring a couple of jugs of Prestone yellow or maybe some Asian Car red.

DaemonFC

I think HOAT would be okay, but yellow for sure would work.

DaemonFC

Asian car red is HOAT.

matey

DaemonFC

It has certain aspects of both OAT and Green.

DaemonFC

That way it better avoids the excessive coolant system wear of Green and the sludging of OAT.

Apr 20 01:26

DaemonFC

Those Japanese people are smart.

Apr 20 01:26

matey

yes they do a lot of school

Apr 20 01:26

DaemonFC

You really can't go too wrong with Yellow though.

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-ricksfreeautorepairadvice.com | What causes Dex-Cool sludge — Ricks Free Auto Repair Advice Ricks Free Auto Repair Advice | Automotive Repair Tips and How-To

DaemonFC

DexCool is the orange stuff in GM cars.

matey

so these are coolants?

DaemonFC

"Dex-Cool sludge is caused by neglect and not following directions. If a shop or owner fails to maintain the system, adds an incompatible coolant to top it off, or runs the vehicle too long without changing the coolant or runs the cooling system when low."

matey

after the flush, you put these in?

DaemonFC

Yeah, there's a lot of types.

matey

got it

DaemonFC

Well, you CAN convert a car over to use one it wasn't meant for.

matey

but why

DaemonFC

The Impala came with DexCool, got thoroughly flushed, and now uses Green.

DaemonFC

<matey> but why

Apr 20 01:30

DaemonFC

Different engineers think there are different ways to solve the problem, plus patents.

Apr 20 01:30

DaemonFC

Lovely, glorious patents!

Apr 20 01:30

DaemonFC

Any coolant causes problems when you neglect it.

Apr 20 01:31

DaemonFC

DexCool Sludge is better than what happens years later with Green.

Apr 20 01:31

DaemonFC

You skip that, never do it, 10 years later all the gaskets in the engine are ruined, the heater core is ruined, the radiator is ruined and leaking, the hoses are bursting, and the water pump explodes.

DaemonFC

I had a Taurus like that. Interestingly enough.

matey

i really had no idea coolant made that much of a difference

matey

ah, the taurus <3

matey

i didnt love the car, i loved the owner

DaemonFC

About the only thing you can salvage from the system with neglected green coolant is the overflow tank which is about $20 on RockAuto.

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

Which is why GM stopped using it.

DaemonFC

They wanted to advertise to the stupid baby boomers that the problem was solved and the car was hassle-free.

matey

which one fares the best if you do neglect it, dexcool?

DaemonFC

No, HOAT.

matey

okay

DaemonFC

The Asian stuff.

matey

right

DaemonFC

But HOAT is also weird, right?

matey

okay

DaemonFC

It's 5 years or 150,000 miles, but you need an additive package for it every 25,000 miles.

DaemonFC

Or it stops protecting the system.

matey

interesting

DaemonFC

So you can really do extended drain intervals, but you have to have additives or the system goes to shit like the rest.

DaemonFC

But nothing is as disastrous as old green coolant.

matey

how do you know which one the car has in it, if you dont know the car already?

matey

or is it literally green

DaemonFC

The owner's manual should say which one to use. GM manual will say "Dex-Cool(R) ONLY" and warn not to mix them.

DaemonFC

And it's orange.

DaemonFC

Yeah, the old stuff is green.

DaemonFC

You have two types of green. The standard 2 year or 36,000 mile green.

DaemonFC

Or the 5 year 60,000 mile extended green.

matey

and it doesnt matter because youll flush it anyway

DaemonFC

In my cars that used green I just filled them with 5 year green.

DaemonFC

Yeah, I will, but I'd rather do it after 5 years and not have it destroy anything.

matey

sure

DaemonFC

Because the coolant is a little more, but the shop labor for the job is the same, and 90% of the bill!

matey

sure

DaemonFC

So if you have a shop use standard green instead of extended green, you have to pay them about $250 over 5 years instead of $100.

matey

this should be useful if i ever get involved with another car owner

matey

my wife of course, had one

DaemonFC

Which adds $30 a year to your car costs.

DaemonFC

Not much, but meh.

matey

why not do it less often and save

DaemonFC

And you only run the risk of some idiot leaving air in the system once every 5 years.

matey

what happens if they leave air in

DaemonFC

Pockets of air can overheat parts of the engine.

matey

how bad?

matey

like $5000 bad or $500 bad

DaemonFC

In a cast iron engine with aluminum valve covers and intakes, the gaskets are at risk.

matey

and those run?

DaemonFC

But in a modern engine, the entire engine is at risk.

DaemonFC

Aluminum and plastic.

matey

ahh

matey

bad

DaemonFC

Very bad.

matey

howd you learn all this about cars? trial and error?

DaemonFC

Yeah, gasket jobs aren't cheap, but if you have a good engine that's worth it.

DaemonFC

Knock yourself out.

DaemonFC

The 3800 Series II and III are good engines and so is the Ford Modular V8 and the Vulcan V6.

DaemonFC

The first being GM, and it was on the top 10 engines of the 20th century (and the Series III is an improved version of the one on that list from the 2000s).

Apr 20 01:41

DaemonFC

They're fairly trouble-free in most cases.

Apr 20 01:41

DaemonFC

There's some problem spots.,

Apr 20 01:41

DaemonFC

<matey> howd you learn all this about cars? trial and error?

DaemonFC

Yeah, the Taurus was a shit car, but the engine was nice.

DaemonFC

It wasn't even a FFV, but I ran it with the engine light on with E85 back when it was $1.85 a gallon in Indiana and gas was over $4.

matey

so you picked it up from talking to mechanics?

DaemonFC

Back in 2007/2008.

matey

which i stopped using windows.

matey

s/which/when

DaemonFC

No, I researched the problem a bit.

matey

probably a safer bet

DaemonFC

I bought a Kia Soul + with the Theta II engine before it became known that there were metal shavings in there that could blow it up.

DaemonFC

But John has that piece of shit now.

matey

DaemonFC

I hope it kills him.

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

I hope he's on fire burning alive.

matey

hes the pedo, yes?

DaemonFC

Yeah.

matey

DaemonFC

matey

yeah i know, lol

DaemonFC

Came home and bragged about feeling up 14 year olds.

matey

wtf

matey

thats a special level of fucked up

matey

i used to read the logs here a lot

matey

so i know about john

DaemonFC

He's awful. He won't live long though.

matey

cancer?

DaemonFC

He has terrible blood pressure. I told him what to do about it but he stopped taking his pills.

DaemonFC

And he's Hispanic, so 50% higher risk of kidney failure.

matey

self-solving problem i guess

DaemonFC

And high bp causes that.

matey

what did you tell him to do about it

matey

other than take his pills

DaemonFC

Take his lisinopril and see the doctor twice a year.

matey

simple enough

DaemonFC

It gave him erection issues he said.

DaemonFC

So he'd rather die in his 40s I suppose.

matey

i suppose he can be erect when he has rigor mortis

DaemonFC

If he doesn't get killed by something else first.

"Before I went in I marked my oil filter to see if they change them because I've heard rumors that they do oil changes and don't replace the filter. Service was friendly price was steep and it was average wait time. When I got home I inspected under my car and what do you know. The SAME filter. I called in the same hour and talked to the manager and told me they always change filters and would not reimburse me. WArNING stay away."

Engine sludge was within the tolerances of some of the older engines, which is why they could run on conventional oil, but the newer ones with tighter tolerances can't handle any sludge or else an oil passage can become clogged up, and the engine will start running dry and you'll get about another mile and no more engine.

*swaggboi has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)

Apr 20 02:42

DaemonFC

Due to the overhead valve and timing chain design that GM uses, you should not attempt to use 0w20, 5w20, or 0w16 oils.

Apr 20 02:43

DaemonFC

You'll do serious damage.

Apr 20 02:43

DaemonFC

If you try to use 0w40, 5w40, or 10w40 you'll eventually blow out the oil pump.

Apr 20 02:43

DaemonFC

10w30 should only be used in cases where you live in a very warm climate.

DaemonFC

Such as the summer months in the midwest or like, eh, Florida.

DaemonFC

But I wouldn't even use it there.

*swaggboi (~swaggboi@slackware.uk/supporter/swaggboi) has joined #techrights

DaemonFC

I'd probably use 5w30 full synthetic if I lived in a state with nice weather all year.

DaemonFC

0w30 is to get the oil flowing to the top of the engine faster on a cold day.

matey

cool

DaemonFC

And we get many of those here, and while we have a few really hot months, it's not worth changing the oil viscosity over those months because it'll just be cold again before I need another oil change.

DaemonFC

And this way I only have to remember to change the oil once a year.

DaemonFC

We're still getting snow this week.

DaemonFC

But it'll be 80 F on Saturday.

matey

crazy

https://www.royalpurple.com/consumer/extended-life-oil-filters/

DaemonFC

The weather here is too crazy to try to plan your oil viscosity around it, especially now with full synthetic oils and extended drain intervals.

Apr 20 02:47

DaemonFC

Back when I used conventional oil in an engine, I would switch between 10w30 for the summer months and 5w30 for the winter months.

Apr 20 02:47

*koo5_ (~quassel@51.140.155.227) has joined #techrights

Apr 20 02:47

DaemonFC

But you have to change that out at least every 6 months anyway.

Apr 20 02:48

DaemonFC

At least that's what the oil companies say on the bottle.

Apr 20 02:48

DaemonFC

Amsoil's advice will void out your warranty if you have one.

Apr 20 02:48

DaemonFC

They say they'll pay to fix your engine if you use their oil and there's a breakdown caused by extended drain interval that goes well beyond what any manufacturer says to do.

Apr 20 02:49

DaemonFC

Amsoil claims that you can do 25,000 mile oil changes.

Apr 20 02:49

DaemonFC

You can, but it's a really bad idea, with any oil or filter.

Apr 20 02:49

DaemonFC

If you're going to go that route and buy into the 25,000 mile or one year crap, then you should get yourself an extended drain filter.

Apr 20 02:50

DaemonFC

Basically they just have more filtration media. Usually about 50% more.

Apr 20 02:50

DaemonFC

That way it won't be likely to plug up the filter with sludge and then use the bypass valve and start circulating unfiltered oil about 10,000-12,000 miles in.

Apr 20 02:50

DaemonFC

Apr 20 02:52

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.royalpurple.com | Extended Life Oil Filters | Royal Purple

Apr 20 02:52

DaemonFC

Royal Purple makes some that have twice as much filtration media in them.

Apr 20 02:53

DaemonFC

But in some cases you won't be able to get one to fit in a modern engine bay.

Apr 20 02:53

DaemonFC

Because everything is cramped and they only specced it to have enough room for an OE-size filter.

Apr 20 02:53

DaemonFC

But if you don't want to think about oil drain intervals so much, you can use something like Pennzoil Platinum for Euro cars and an extended drain filter.

Apr 20 02:54

DaemonFC

You theoretically could go 15,000 miles between oil changes in the Buick.

Apr 20 02:54

DaemonFC

Though, why would you? The engine will consume _some_ oil so you'll not just be paying for Euro oil and a $50 oil filter.

DaemonFC

But you have to plan on top ups.

DaemonFC

Extended drain intervals of that type create other problems too.

DaemonFC

It's good to get a set of eyes on your car every now and then at the mechanic's shop.

DaemonFC

Remembering "I need an oil change" every so often means you'll be in there more and they have more chances to notice anything going wrong with your car.

Apr 20 02:56

matey

yeah

Apr 20 02:56

DaemonFC

If you go to a quick lube place, not only do they screw you on the oil change price and maybe not even do the job, but they are not mechanics.

Apr 20 02:56

DaemonFC

So you have no early warning of things like brakes that are starting to deteriorate.

Apr 20 02:57

DaemonFC

People are slobs.

DaemonFC

If I'm going to pay $60 for a synthetic oil change anywhere I go, it's going to be at the dealer.

DaemonFC

They do a standard inspection on your car whenever you're there and give you a status report.

DaemonFC

You can go fix it anywhere you want at that point.

activelow

as far as i was concerned, that's not much better than an iexplorer.bin

yet, i can afford the luxury, to remove it; gnome/gnu/fsf can't without loosing almost their entire user base

webkit-gtk-2.24.4 was the last one, i compiled, three of four years old

Apr 20 04:06

activelow

the epiphany frontend was poisoned, with dbus, and not easily removed, so i ended up with badwolf/webkit, which had no benefit over netsurf anymore

anyway, problem is GTK, harfbuzz and their poison creeping into almost everything

Apr 20 04:53

mupdf is a good example for this again, an older version, didn't require harfbuzz, and openjpeg requires cmake

Apr 20 04:55

activelow

next one, netsurf and replacing gtk with fbcon or motif

Apr 20 04:55

activelow

what i can't comprehend, is, the quality minimum acceptance testing at facebook/google/red-hat/ibm; if there had been any harfbuzz implemented in c++ couldn't have passed

Apr 20 04:57

activelow

i mean, harfbuzz broke the entire design rationale of GTK, which the developers invested considerable effort into, to implement GLib/GObject, to prevent exaclty this one problem: c++

Apr 20 04:57

they even pushed Vala... and then, some idiot crushed decades of man power invested into it, GTK

Apr 20 08:16

activelow

maybe there is some GTK 2.x somewhere hiding in the archives, i back-tracked until 2013 and then stopped

Apr 20 08:16

activelow

GTK 2.x isn't affected by dbus/systemd as GTK 3.x is, yet harfbuzz poison already attached to it, GTK 1.x seems clean

Apr 20 08:17

activelow

however, neither motif nor gtk-1.x are used, it's almost gtk-2.x at least, i'll backtrack further to see if there is any clean version hiding somewhere

matey

last known good GTK is version 1.x; just saying <- i dont know when gnome took over gtk

matey

what i do know is that it wasnt gnome originally

matey

gtk3 is gnome, i dont know about the status of gtk2

schestowitz-TR

icbm emploloyes key gtk devs

schestowitz-TR

they are affiliated with gnome

matey

icbm emploloyes key gtk dev <- at any rate there are only 3 things ill use gtk4 for

matey

preferably less

matey

i wont use gtk4 apps

matey

3 exceptions

matey

browser, image editor

matey

and ?

matey

gtk4 just means "fuck you, fuck users"

Apr 20 08:22

matey

so does gtk3, but ive worked pretty hard to get away from that

Apr 20 08:22

matey

if you use gtk4 to make an app, i guess you dont want me to use it

Apr 20 08:22

activelow

maybe there is a chance with gtk2, certainly not gtk3 anymore

Apr 20 08:23

matey

id be content with mate if it moved off github

Apr 20 08:23

activelow

well, even with gtk2 versions in 2013 already weren't ok anymore

Apr 20 08:24

matey

i mean i wouldnt use it, but id probably recommend it (not if its on github)

Apr 20 08:24

matey

even with gtk2 versions in 2013 already weren't ok anymore <- your definition of "not ok" includes "written in c++"

Apr 20 08:25

matey

which is alright for your profile, but in general

Apr 20 08:25

matey

then again id like to know how intrinsic the boost libraries are to c++ applications

Apr 20 08:25

matey

in general

matey

because at that point your anti-c++ crusade dovetails with my own

matey: gtk1, motif, and various x11-libs do not require pango to render text,fonts,widgets

Apr 20 09:32

activelow

the dependency is gtk2/3->pango->harfbuzz, and gtk2/3->harfbuzz (according to the ebuilds); removal of pango and harfbuzz are not possible (with or without farsi/arab/hebrew requirement)

Apr 20 09:34

furthermore, there is freetype, fontconfig and some libxft (and even those are not required by X11 if truetype/unicode related is not required)

Apr 20 09:35

it is chaotic; and i could verify already unicode rendered correctly without pango/harfbuzz/freetype/fontconfig/xft inside urxvt... need to test this again, exactly what is required and what isn't

pango/harfbuzz certainly are _not_ necessary for unicode/greek/cjk with some terminal emulator i tested with

And if you do go get it serviced, some of them actually do try to push unnecessary procedures on you.

schestowitz-TR

2) they spy on clicks and stuff

schestowitz-TR

so the results are based on observing people around the Web

DaemonFC

Since some actually do this, some people think anything any dealer recommends is a scam.

Erroneous

DaemonFC

Your best bet with a car is to educate yourself a little about what actually needs done, why, and when.

Erroneous

is that still a thing?

DaemonFC

Because if you do what my mom does and "rely on others to tell me", either nobody will or they'll start trying to sell you expensive services that may not even be in the owner's manual or related to a repair.

DaemonFC

It's really interesting when they give you the invoice sticker too.

Erroneous

why can we quite spambot DaemonFC?

psydruid

everything is turning into a malicious tech product

DaemonFC

Because when a vehicle has "cold weather package" (heated seats and side mirrors), they list it as like $800.

psydruid

even things that aren't supposed to be

DaemonFC

But when they can't get chips and remove the computer that controls those systems, but not most of the hardware, leaving buttons that don't do anything, and heaters that nothing can operate....

DaemonFC

They give you a $50 credit. LOL

psydruid

pity money

Apr 20 21:28

DaemonFC

On less sophisticated cars like the Impala and the Lacrosse that I have, the seat heater is just a toggle switch. It has off, warm, and a second warm setting that's warmer than the first.

Apr 20 21:28

DaemonFC

But these new cars hook it up to the computer and decide how warm the heater in the seat should get based on the outside temperature and how warm you like the heater to be.

Apr 20 21:28

DaemonFC

So, they require their own connection to the BCM and a computer chip just for the stupid seat warmer.

Apr 20 21:29

DaemonFC

Instead of off, I, and II.

Apr 20 21:29

DaemonFC

Never breaks. Too easy!

Apr 20 21:29

DaemonFC

I think now Toyota sells heated seats and then disables them if you don't subscribe to the seats for $10 a month.

Erroneous

it would be a good idea to fit a transponder on every car

DaemonFC

Don't pay? Your car gets an update that doesn't allow the seat warmer to be turned on.

Erroneous

for traffic jam management and things

DaemonFC

It would be interesting if someone created a bypass for the heated seats.

DaemonFC

But that might violate the DMCA.

He says "Turn the heat on." when the car is off.

Apr 20 23:00

I explain, "The engine produces heat when it is running, which heats up the coolant, which flows through the heater core, which is transferred into the cabin by the blower. Without the car running, you cannot run the heater.".

Apr 20 23:01

DaemonFC

Then he wonders why it's cold with the car on for a while. I have to explain, "Because the engine has to run long enough to reach operating temperature before the heater fully works. Which is why there is a remote starter on this car that is programmed to run the heater when you use it.".

You think a 14 year old Buick is a money pit because it needs some coolant and a transmission service, wait until you get a load of what a used battery car costs the second owner!

Apr 20 23:05

DaemonFC

Or a used BMW, for that matter.

Erroneous

DaemonFC

People buy old BMWs and Mercedes cars because they only cost a couple thousand dollars and they either do one of two things.

DaemonFC

Try to fix them until they've spent $10,000 fixing it and it's still not working well, or just drive the car while it falls apart around them and not even the windows work anymore.

Erroneous

windows never worked

the Microsoft bid

matey

<SomeH4x0r> the Microsoft bid <- i think he was being cynical. youre not literally allowed to bid on 501(c)3 orgs. you can only infiltrate the board and bribe them.

matey

which is SORT OF like owning them

note that in judaism, you have to be ULTRA ORTHODOX (more than just plain old orthodox) for that to be a thing

Erroneous

only for them?

matey

for catholicism, you just have to be catholic

matey

then EVERYTHING is a sin

matey

even not sinning (because its immodest and proud)

Erroneous

if EVERYTHING is a sin you would have to be god not to sin

im just a gur, id rather not be, cause they wont let me go out at night

DaemonFC

<Erroneous> i bet DaemonFC sports a beard

matey

if EVERYTHING is a sin you would have to be god not to sin <- that of course would be blaspheme

matey

of course you dont have to be religious to be ultra-orthodox anymore. you just have to agree to the coc oath

matey

<DaemonFC> <Erroneous> i bet DaemonFC sports a beard <- no he has a husband

DaemonFC

No, I shave in the shower every day. I bath in hand soap because body wash is hand soap for idiots who want to pay $15 for $4 worth of hand soap.

DaemonFC

And I shave with shampoo that's leftover from my hair to avoid having to buy shaving cream.

Apr 20 23:37

I was going through about a can every 5-6 weeks and I figured that if it costs $2 a can and there's 52 weeks in a year, then that's a $17.33 a year product I can ditch.

Why would you work for an hour to have shave cream when you already have other products for that?
