Erroneous

dont tell me that DaemonFC is jeff besos?

matey

okay i wont, because he isnt

Erroneous

and hes going to missplace all my oders on amazon

MinceR

jeff besauce?

matey

amazon could cut costs if they just handed your packages to random people on the street

MinceR

beesauce

matey

they like to put them in the door here so that when you open the door, it crunches the package a bit

matey

they could put them on the other side of the door and it wouldnt happen

matey

so of course they go for the hinge, up against something else, so it becomes a package cruncher

Apr 21 00:02

matey

if youre on the outside and youre a nice person, you can move the package

Apr 21 00:02

matey

if youre on the inside though, you might not know its there

Apr 21 00:02

Erroneous

will that void waranty?

DaemonFC

<matey> amazon could cut costs if they just handed your packages to random people on the street

DaemonFC

I thought they already do that.

matey

but at least the package gets there. the other delivery people just run up and put a note that says "sorry you werent fast enough to tag us!"

DaemonFC

<matey> but at least the package gets there. the other delivery people just run up and put a note that says "sorry you werent fast enough to tag us!"

DaemonFC

They just leave it on the door here.

matey

<DaemonFC> I thought they already do that. <- no, they take all the time to set it down ont he ground

DaemonFC

My new Chinese hood struts came yesterday.

matey

its inefficient. just hand to a random person and get back into the van

matey

<DaemonFC> My new Chinese hood struts came yesterday. <- were they delivered by amazon, or a neighbour?

[:S] SomeH4x0r: did it really move to framagit from disroot? <- You can always read disroot - we keep it as a mirror.

AltLink_c52c

[:S] SomeH4x0r: About 270f our collaborators disliked Gitlab because it require j/s to read things. Those users can read disroot.

AltLink_c52c

[:S] SomeH4x0r: The reason is 1) disroot's mirror-sync is unstable 2) GitLab is better than Gitea

DaemonFC

The mechanic at Chevy installed them for free because I said I'd just do it myself later with a screwdriver, so he didn't put down that he installed them. Said nobody would know because they only know if they check out parts from the parts department.

DaemonFC

That was nice of him.

matey

2) GitLab is better than Gitea <- in what way?

DaemonFC

The dealer recommended new hood struts that were going to cost me $100 last week.

DaemonFC

The ones from China only cost me $23.

matey

there you go

matey

saving $77 is enough to make you strut

DaemonFC

Yeah, and they work great too.

DaemonFC

The hood actually popped up. I was happy.

Erroneous

like who need hood struts?

Erroneous

are you a filmsy litle girl?

matey

oh, youre chunky

DaemonFC

People who don't like finding something to prop the hood up and risk having it fall on them while they work on the car.

chunky

hey matey!

DaemonFC

You need to open it up and check your fluid levels weekly and not having working hood struts turns into a real nuisance.

Erroneous

who is chunky?

If there's a leak, it's better to know before your engine is out of oil and rattling around with the oil light on.

chunky

damn.. i miss matey.. hope he comes back soon..

DaemonFC

If you watch the level weekly, this tends not to happen.

Erroneous

i guess my car is so good i only open the hood once every 6 months

DaemonFC

Well, you know. There's no leaks until there's a leak.

DaemonFC

So have fun with those really expensive parts that needed fluid.

matey

Well, the gaskets are preferable to what the Germans do.

DaemonFC

I only use OE on my cars.

Erroneous

they made a lot of money thanks to the hippie nazis in the usa

DaemonFC

Unless it's just going to be such an insanely expensive part that I'd rather cross my fingers.

DaemonFC

I bought a rebuilt rack and pinion for $150 because it's like almost $900 from Delco new, and the Impala is old and high mileage.

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

DaemonFC

The part has been in there for a few years and is still working okay.

DaemonFC

But for smaller things, there's just not enough price difference to be worth the generally lousy quality of going to a discount auto parts store.

Apr 21 00:16

DaemonFC

If you are going to use anything besides OE, especially if you are paying a mechanic, only use NAPA.

Apr 21 00:16

MinceR

hungarian idiots love german cars

Apr 21 00:16

matey

99% of the time when i see someone in an audi they drive like a douchebag

Apr 21 00:17

DaemonFC

It's not worth paying hundreds of dollars labor again because you thought you were going to save $50-100 on the part.

Apr 21 00:17

matey

lots of uppity car brands, but the four circles are like a warning that says "oncoming douchebag"

Apr 21 00:17

matey

theres always one who isnt, i mean a couple a year

DaemonFC

If you want a generally trouble-free car, you're going to gravitate towards one with reliable major components, a good usage base (big aftermarket holds down OE prices!), and generally to stick to OE parts when something does break.

matey

and they do something nice and i think "dude, dont you know what youre driving?"

matey

its like theyre from another planet then

DaemonFC

Because at today's prices, it's too expensive to pay a mechanic twice because you skimped on the part.

DaemonFC

The joke was actually on the Chevy dealer when my belt tensioner went out.

Apr 21 00:19

DaemonFC

There was not a good local supply of Delco original parts, so they had to drive down to Joliet, a total of 170 miles round trip, to get me the part.

Erroneous

DaemonFC

And GM obligates them to use original parts and to service each repair request from a customer even if something like this comes up.

Erroneous

they dont have mail were you live?

DaemonFC

Well, when your belt tensioner is about to unravel and destroy the rest of the car, you don't want to wait for the post office all week.

DaemonFC

Erroneous

express mail?

Erroneous

your full of shit

DaemonFC

Again, when it's screaming and chirping, it could go at any moment.

DaemonFC

That's why I got straight down to the shop when I noticed that.

DaemonFC

I've had a belt tensioner seize up before in a Ford.

DaemonFC

Car broke down immediately, and overheated, and left me on the side of the road.

Erroneous

another american master piece

DaemonFC

Well, in Ford's defense, the original belt and tensioner ran for 217,000 miles before that happened.

matey

thats pretty far

Erroneous

i wonder why hardlly anyone drives amercan xars were i live

DaemonFC

I learned an important lesson. Change your belts out every 100,000 miles -or- ten years. They're not that expensive.

DaemonFC

And if any part of the drive pulley system starts making noise, get it in the shop fast.

DaemonFC

If it's making a lot of noise, perhaps consider a tow.

DaemonFC

AAA tows you for free like up to 5 times a year.

DaemonFC

And my cell phone company pays my membership fee at the motor club.

DaemonFC

American cars are fairly reliable if well maintained. They're not demanding, people are idiots.

Apr 21 00:25

DaemonFC

They don't cost a fortune. Many of them are still on the road at least 20 years later, whereas maybe 1 BMW in 1000 pulls that off after a lot of expensive breakdowns.

Apr 21 00:25

DaemonFC

If the BMW even lasts 8 years, it's the Dick Van Dyke of BMWs.

Apr 21 00:26

DaemonFC

Whereas I've had plenty of Fords and Chevys last 20-25 years.

Apr 21 00:26

DaemonFC

Sometimes being even the third or fourth owner.

Apr 21 00:27

DaemonFC

It starts getting pretty hairy being owner #3.

Apr 21 00:27

DaemonFC

But that doesn't mean the car is a lemon, just like being owner 2 doesn't mean a 1 owner car will be a good one.

Apr 21 00:27

DaemonFC

Some owners buy the thing and trade it in two years later because they have money to do that and so it's what they do.

DaemonFC

If I had billions in a bank account for whatever reason, I'd still probably drive a Buick or a Lincoln.

DaemonFC

It would be top of the line.

DaemonFC

But it would be a Buick or a Lincoln.

https://thecodinglove.com/when-the-client-isnt-satisfied-with-the-product-while-i-respected-the-specifications-to-the-letter

DaemonFC

I wouldn't be one of those people going "Sure the BMW breaks down and costs another $3,000 every 100 miles, but I'm rich so LOL at the people starving in the world.".

Apr 21 00:29

DaemonFC

Bezos is probably one of those.

Apr 21 00:29

DaemonFC

Or maybe a Cadillac. Yeah, if I was rich I might have a Cadillac car. When they go all electric I'd even have a garage to charge it in, so why not?

Apr 21 00:30

"I am here to speak to Mr. Goodwrench. Is he still around? Actually, strike that. I want to talk to the General of Motors. This is too important for Goodwrench.".

MinceR

it's not exactly difficult to make better cars than the germans

Yes, BMWs would be gaudy even if they weren't so terrible in the engineering department.

apple has a car coming out "weve gotten rid of wheels"

DaemonFC

The first time a BMW overheats, the engine is ruined.

matey

if you think about it, the only reason cars need wheels is because the ground isnt smooth enough for cars to glide across

matey

and yet whenever it rains or gets icy, whats the first thing that happens?

DaemonFC

And all of the cooling system is cheap plastic, so since an engine is too expensive to risk, you have to budget about $4,000 every 7 years to replace the entire cooling system, or eventually it will degrade and fail catastrophically, and steam will come out of your hood and that's the end for that one.

MinceR

that's also why buses need suspensions

matey

at apple, we thought: why not use this to our advantage?

MinceR

and yet in budapest we have mercedes-benz buses with no suspension

MinceR

you can feel every micron-sized fault in the road

matey

our cars dont have wheels. instead, they use special roads that are completely smooth, and just glide across

matey

youre going to love it

DaemonFC

Even after 14 years without being flushed, the coolant was just nasty and I had to have it flushed out twice.

MinceR

and we have massive potholes everywhere

DaemonFC

The rest of the cooling system on the Buick is working fine.

MinceR

but i guess it's useful for people who have kidney stones

MinceR

just one ride on a mercedes-benz citaro or conecto will atomize them all

DaemonFC

Just got a little plugged up by bad coolant that was coming apart.

matey

the icar utilises hovercraft technology, with specially designed glass road system with an oleophobic coating just like the iphone

for heating, the icar takes a completely new approach

Apr 21 00:55

matey

most car heating systems only turn energy into heat. this is incredibly wasteful

Apr 21 00:56

Erroneous

isnt heat energy?

Apr 21 00:56

matey

the icar actually uses a bitcoin mining rig to keep you warm in winter months-- and it helps pay for fuel

Apr 21 00:56

matey

there are no fans of course-- the bitcoin miners actually use the cars own chassis for cooling, just like the macbook

Apr 21 00:57

so you wont have to listen to noisy heaters in the winter

Walmart's conventional "pit crew" oil change which includes no extra services (which are easy to do yourself anyway) is $22.88.

Apr 21 01:00

DaemonFC

In 2004, I used these oil changes on my Chevy Corsica because I was broke and they only cost $11 back then.

Apr 21 01:00

DaemonFC

They were using recycled oil from Warren.

DaemonFC

Now people are such hippies that Valvoline has a recycled oil they charge more for.

DaemonFC

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.warrenoil.com | WARREN | Warren Oil Company, LLC

matey

if shes still in office next term she should run as a black woman, that might help

DaemonFC

They would supply Walmart with their "Super Tech" motor oil, which was $11 for a full service oil change or 88 cents by the quart back then.

DaemonFC

Walmart ran the $11 oil change with Super Tech oil as a loss leader to get you in the store where you were trapped for hours waiting on the oil change because they had your car.

Apr 21 01:03

DaemonFC

So I'd come in and get that oil change and then camp out in the magazine area of the store, reading a magazine I didn't purchase.

Apr 21 01:03

DaemonFC

Then when they called me back to get my car, I put it on the shelf and made my way back there.

Apr 21 01:04

DaemonFC

And used my employee discount on the oil change.

Apr 21 01:04

DaemonFC

What caused me to stop going to Walmart for oil changes are that they've had trouble finding people who want to work and so the line got longer and nobody can ever seem to get you in, and they cut costs by partnering with FRAM for a super terrible oil filter.

matey

to get you in the store <- couldnt you go somewhere else?

matey

maybe not, without a car.

DaemonFC

They cost Walmart 50 cents apiece.

DaemonFC

Walmarts are usually off in some blighted area of town where nobody cares if they build a Walmart.

Apr 21 01:06

matey

yeah

Apr 21 01:06

DaemonFC

I could use Mandy's discount card on an oil change.

Apr 21 01:06

DaemonFC

But I'm not handing Walmart the keys to something nice.

Apr 21 01:07

DaemonFC

And I'm not waiting 6 hours for an oil change.

Apr 21 01:07

DaemonFC

It takes the dealer maybe an hour to get me in and out and they have a waiting area with complimentary refreshments, and they don't skimp on parts.

Apr 21 01:07

DaemonFC

I never understood how Jiffy Lube works.

DaemonFC

Like, how they have customers.

matey

people consider their time valuable

DaemonFC

Going to the dealer for an oil change is cheaper with or without coupons.

matey

but not their car

DaemonFC

And there are always coupons.

DaemonFC

I'd rather wait an hour if they're going to let the oil finish draining out of my car and actually do the job right.

matey

yes but youre car literate

DaemonFC

It takes 30 minutes to fully drain a 3800 V6 of oil.

Apr 21 01:09

DaemonFC

Jiffy Lube can do it in 10 minutes because they're happy with 90% of it coming out and they'll just call it and top it off after that happens.

Apr 21 01:09

DaemonFC

So over time you can sludge up your engine quite badly at Jiffy Lube.

Apr 21 01:09

DaemonFC

Thanks to gravity, all of the heavier sediment in the oil pan will take longer to come out than what's on top of it.

Apr 21 01:10

DaemonFC

So you're layering crap each time you visit Jiffy Lube.

Apr 21 01:10

DaemonFC

And that can still end up circulating where it shouldn't.

Oddly, it's the people who take the worst care of their engine oil that have the fewest GM oil pan gasket problems.

matey

and heres the thing

matey

your car is used...

DaemonFC

If it's really clean, what happens is the gasket wears out and the oil starts leaking.

matey

you have a used buick

matey

but you can still take it to the dealer.

DaemonFC

But if it's dirty, the crap on top of it can actually stop leaks.

Erroneous

that's how the engineers designed it for some reason

matey

i wouldnt have even thought of that. i thought to take it to the dealer you had to buy it from them

DaemonFC

But overall, it's still worse to let crap accumulate in your engine.

DaemonFC

I can take the Buick to Ford if all I want is an oil change.

Pretty much all they make now are trucks and SUVs. They got rid of their cars except the Mustang.

indeed they are

DaemonFC

The EPA says the Impala gets 17 mpg in the city and I get about 22.

DaemonFC

On the highway they're closer to what I get because stopping isn't much of a factor there.

of course if youre on a road where you need awd, then anything with rwd is going to handle like shit

the ones with electronics like BMW

DaemonFC

If you're only going to have one drive axle and live in a snow state....

DaemonFC

FWD is the way to go.

Although the Crown Vic is a very nice car when it's nice out.

i went with AWD, but it's not a sports car :>

the ones with electronics like BMW andle just fine

I learned to drive it on the snow, but it's not a fun car to have on the snow.

matey

yeah i dont think sports cars usually have awd

matey

awd probably has performance costs, but there are definitely some awd cars that do well enough

Erroneous

rally cars have them

DaemonFC

The one great thing about RWD is the steering (when it's dry out).

DaemonFC

You barely even needed the power steering to steer the car.

MinceR

the new NSX has AWD

DaemonFC

You only needed one finger on the wheel to steer it really. That's how much effort it takes.

MinceR

the GT-R has it too

yes matey, and you missed the announcement i am porting this to linux motif-noopengl

matey

fun

activelow

got this wrapped into a gentoo ebuild a moment ago, with a clean patchset

activelow

besides fun, it is _the_ solution for a graphical unix RYF browser

Apr 21 07:26

activelow

i see, motif was _proprietary_, and GTK1 was implemented, 1999, hence motif received little attention

Apr 21 07:50

activelow

which is the irony nowadays, 2012 motif was released LGPL, meanwhile i wouldn't want to touch any GTK2/3 anymore

Apr 21 07:52

activelow

the benefit of motif nowadays, it is both _free_ software, it is _stable_, it is not poisoned by any of the systemd/dbus/harfbuzz spyware, and together with a showcase netsurf-motif provides a RYF browser, which gnome couldn't anymore

Apr 21 07:55

matey

it is _stable_ <- this is the appeal for me too

Apr 21 07:56

matey

you know, if gcc requires c++ now, i wonder if it requires boost (github)

Apr 21 07:56

activelow

the impact of this, is gigantic, to both proprietary browsers, to stick to this example, and too GNOME/GNU/FSF

matey

libffi is there, so is bison (and perl for autotools)

matey

well wherever gnome goes, free software becomes open source

matey

libreoffice will be destroyed by collabora

activelow

besides, yes, netsurf, motif, passed minimum acceptance testing; doesn't require any c++/cmake/gtk-clutter/gnome-systemd spyware

activelow

libreoffice doesn't pass the criteria anymore, including dependencies such as gtk2/3 or qt4/5/6 ... none of this is what i consider "free software"

and how should GNOME/FSF argue, with epiphany browser designated as "free software", in parallel to the existence of netsurf-motif?

Apr 21 08:09

activelow

the argument FSF had in this case, is the support for malicious js/wasm and proprietary web content with epiphany/webkit/gtk/systemd/dbus/harfbuzz, which netsurf-motif has not and needs not and wants not (besides other cosmetic issues)

activelow

btw. motif is an IEEE standard, and it is stable, 30 years proven track record

i mean i could make my arsehole standard if i put enough money into writing the specification

Apr 21 08:22

activelow

you couldn't

Apr 21 08:23

matey

i totally could

Apr 21 08:23

matey

the information could be given to surgeons and people whose arsehole wasnt compliant could get brought up to spec

Apr 21 08:25

matey

of course the upgrades would be expensive, but one of the biggest problems for proctologists is having to work in non-standard environments

Apr 21 08:26

matey

if people were compliant proctology could be a LOT more efficient, and there could be better tools for the field

Apr 21 08:26

matey

plus someone could finally make a smartphone accessory that lets you mount your phone using your arse when its not in use

Apr 21 08:28

matey

which i doubt would be popular but its just one of the benefits of standardisation

Apr 21 08:28

matey

i think comfort would be a major factor in the hole thing

Apr 21 08:29

it should probably be called ARSECII though

Apr 21 08:36

matey

some people say its an arbitrary, useless, non-standard standard

Apr 21 08:38

matey

but they alraedy did ooxml so

Apr 21 08:38

activelow

netsurf-motif does _not_ pose a threat to proprietary interests of those who endorsed chromium/epiphany/webkit/gnome/gtk etc...

Apr 21 08:42

activelow

and it is difficult to attack the freedom of netsurf-motif, because, netsurf for example, insists on portability onto targets which cannot be attacked easily, "embrace, extend, extinguish"

Apr 21 08:44

activelow

GNU/FSF/IBM etc. simply cannot bloat software designated to run on some humble ARM or Amiga with 16MiB RAM

Apr 21 08:45

activelow

so, netsurf, motif remain what they are, "free software"

given the extensive package set available now, i decided to drop support for any package outside the base system with cxx requirements, which excludes all GTK2/3 and related entirely

Apr 21 12:25

activelow

of cause it is possible still, to re-emerge gcc with c++ support and any desired package anytime, yet it is not necessary anymore if everything desireable is available without it

Apr 21 12:26

activelow

and BaphometOS will be an almost perfect companion of Raspberry PI (any armv7), haven't got any yet for testing although this won't be a problem for anyone to acquire one

Apr 21 12:29

activelow

too the idea is, updates are rolled out as a _complete_ firmware image always, which should be rarely necessary, given the minified attack vector and low security concerns

Apr 21 12:30

activelow

i think, netsurf-motif with baphometos has no remote code execution vulnerability at all and it is difficult to introduce any

Apr 21 12:31

activelow

not sure yet how to arrange for a BaphometOS release (bandwidth requirements, a release schedule, documentation)

Apr 21 12:32

activelow

without full integration of tinycc and full removal of gcc it is a sneak preview only

Apr 21 12:33

and tinycc is a huge task remaining

a fan in the controller

schestowitz-TR

by 2025 a fan in each button in the controller

schestowitz-TR

this console has "LOTS OF FANS!"

psydruid

that's one of the reasons why I dismiss the Steam Deck

schestowitz-TR

one reviewer from the UK said the battery lasts one hour

psydruid

it's 2022, I don't want fans in my computers anymore

schestowitz-TR

if you run GPU-intensive AAA title

schestowitz-TR

and if you run some shitty ugly game it'll last as advertised

schestowitz-TR

otherwise you will need many booster packs

schestowitz-TR

which is an extra cost and something else to carry

bnchs

steam deck is only good for playing... valve's games

bnchs

and games built on valve's engine

*ziraffep has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

anything else is poorly optimized and will eat up your battery

it's good for Valve's captive x86-based audience, but not for me

schestowitz-TR, libera did a network-wide wallop ad about ubuntu

notice I don't even mention KDE4, which still runs on one of my laptops

schestowitz-TR

matey: he was a long time ago

schestowitz-TR

he and I were on the radio together around 2006

SomeH4x0r

told them

schestowitz-TR

he always took a pro-Novell, pro-Mono, almost pro-Microsoft line

matey

matey: he was a long time ago <- cleaning up their act is rare and not a given at all

schestowitz-TR

he also bashed Groklaw a lot

matey

he always took a pro-Novell, pro-Mono, almost pro-Microsoft line <- and hes worse than ever

MinceR

but then again, back in the day gnome aimed for functionality and flexibility

schestowitz-TR

no, openbox has a common and annoying bug with mousefocus

barto

we meet at last, matey

matey

indeed

schestowitz-TR

because KDE was becoming too fat for 2GB of RAM laptop

MinceR

if it has to switch focus too many times in a short time, it sometimes forgets to switch focus

matey

MinceR

so you end up with the focus on a window the pointer is not in

barto

talking about why gnu is bad

barto

yup

barto

i'll look for a link

matey

gnu isnt bad, its just been co-opted

matey

yeah ill be happy to critique it

barto

matey: gng.z505.com

matey

ill have a loot

barto

seems to have some articles

barto

didn't look much into it though

matey

Stallman Speaks on Security (is he dumb?) September 2016 <- this site looks pretty trollish

matey

im happy to keep looking but

barto

looked the same to me tbh

matey

i dont think gng will teach you much

matey

im critical of gnu but differently

matey

im also critical of most (sometimes all) alternatives

matey

do you know the 4 freedoms?

Apr 21 23:26

barto

from 0 to 3

Apr 21 23:26

matey

cool

matey

so those are good, and stallman wrote them

matey

the trick of free software is making it so people have those :)

matey

preferably with all of their software

matey

and thats where it gets messy. but im still in favour of that goal

matey

"open source" pretends to have the same goal, i personally think its bullshit (lies)

barto

yeah

matey

maybe it wasnt always, but i think it always had problems telling the truth

barto

open source isn't the same as free

matey

right

matey

so youre a step ahead of me when i started

matey

when i started, open source seems nice. it is nice. lie-to-your-face nice.

matey

but i feel for that first, thats why i tell everyone what a scam it is

matey

free software is better, but has plenty of its own issues

matey

including (imo) being taken over by open source. thats where we are now.

matey

in my opinion.

matey

i work with other people who share this opinion, so its not ONLY mine

matey

but free software itself... good luck getting them to talk about how they were taken over

matey

they just want to "move on"

matey

you know like if you come home and your dads killing your mom, and after the courts let him go he just wants to "move on"

matey

"but why did you"

matey

"drop it! talk about something else"

matey

i mean everything is bullshit right now

barto

i feel that, my friend

matey

we had two libreplanets this year. theyre annual.

matey

so maybe we had two 2022s this year, who knows.

matey

the best way to be more free though, as it was in thoreaus time, is to be more minimalist

matey

minimalism can be a trap-- you dont have to be the most minimalist person there is, even if there are (regular) pissing matches about it

matey

those shouldnt be taken seriously. id say everybody wins, but

activelow

ultra conservative

matey

more like, if you CAN win, it doesnt matter how

matey

at least regarding minimalism

with tinycc, i estimate, it will be twice as fast at least

matey

my experience with the new generation of people like digdeeper is a mix

matey

on the one hand, they give you the opportunity to be critical of some things that we need to be critical about

matey

on the other hand, a lot of it is deja vu from my brief stint with open source

matey

its more about being COOL than being free

SomeH4x0r

he says to be 42 year old man iirc, not sure if it applies to new generation

matey

fair point

matey

i may have imagined he was younger

matey

or lumped him in with people who actually are

some people like luke smith too, im completely unimpressed

SomeH4x0r

he said he used to be on IRC once, when he was invited to a dead chatroom

matey

even though we are absolutely headed in that direction

matey

roy and i both think there will be some kind of turnaround

matey

we disagree (strongly) on the details

matey

mostly we need people to fight this

SomeH4x0r

I'd say it is unlikely. Why would people suddenly realize something is wrong when they are boiling frogs?

matey

not just talk about it, but (when possible) DO SOMETHING and make changes

matey

first of all, frogs dont actually boil that way

SomeH4x0r

they don't understand what is happening and they think corporations are good

matey

second of all, people dont either. well, they do. and they dont.

matey

they don't understand what is happening and they think corporations are good <- i mean, im an anti-capitalist at this point

matey

there are many

SomeH4x0r

they are addicted to their crippled PCs ("smartphones") and they won't go doing revolutions because they won't be happy without these crippled PCs anymore

they are by design non-reverse-engineerable at home <- if you want to see the state of reverse-engineering, its pretty fucking impressive

SomeH4x0r

matey

the only thing the industry can really do is destroy itself. thats too glib to be TOO hopeful about, because, it will take A LOT with it

matey

i mean the more we sit on our arses and say "itll be fine" the worse it will be.

matey

but its really NOT hopeless.

matey

just REALLY REALLY bad.

SomeH4x0r

not hopeless, but I have no faith in society to do sane revolutions

matey

so bad that most reasonable WOULD think its hopeless, without a bigger picture to look at.

matey

I have no faith in society to do sane revolutions <- has there ever been a sane revolution?

SomeH4x0r

no idea

matey

i mean lets start with history

matey

well, if your school was anything like mine, it didnt teach you shit about revolution

activelow

if a sane revolution ever happens, we need to get rid of current personal computer <- there are actually protocols for making personal computers "SECURE ENOUGH" for that sort of thing

the microchips are a way corporations control society. They need to be all destroyed, and the progress of computing needs to be reverted by decades.
