First I took this clump of garbage out of there so I could get to the filter and tossed it in the dumpster.

schestowitz-TR

*GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrights

DaemonFC

Then there was all of this left in the filter itself.

schestowitz-TR

the filter is all bent

schestowitz-TR

cars are PITA

schestowitz-TR

I drove some over the years

schestowitz-TR

in fact, I still renew my licence

DaemonFC

Yeah, after I went over to the dumpster and smacked all of the trash out of the old filter, there was so much black dirt and soot in the filter media, it looked like shag carpeting.

schestowitz-TR

but maybe I won't be back to owning a car... until I move somewhere out of town and need one

DaemonFC

After I vacuumed out the rest of the mess from the filter housing area and underneath the cowling, I put a clean filter in.

DaemonFC

The air conditioner blows colder now, and quite a bit more air too.

schestowitz-TR

anyway, about tech...

DaemonFC

I wanted to get this done before winter so my heater would work better and defrost the windows faster.

schestowitz-TR

seems RMS is back to talking in public

schestowitz-TR

afaik first time since 2019

schestowitz-TR

it's interesting... his take on youtueb

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, Even after breaking the retainer fastener and having to replace them at the hardware store for an additional $3.99, the total cost of doing it myself was about $15.

Sep 21 00:05

DaemonFC

The cost of the job at the shop is about $60 on this car.

Sep 21 00:05

DaemonFC

I can't believe that between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter, an independent shop charges a combined total of roughly $100 on a Chevy.

Sep 21 00:06

DaemonFC

If you buy the filters yourself on Amazon, they cost $9 for an engine air filter and $11 for a cabin air filter.

Sep 21 00:06

DaemonFC

So the shop is really soaking you for another $80 in labor on these two jobs that hardly take any time or effort at all.

DaemonFC

And the dealer will get you even worse.

schestowitz-TR

DaemonFC: you spend far too much on this car

schestowitz-TR

time and money, like court hearings

schestowitz-TR

I used to drive just to get to the gym

schestowitz-TR

it was 1) expensive 2) risky (roads) 3) time-consuming

schestowitz-TR

better to just work out at home or outdoors

schestowitz-TR

many people have a car or keep one because of work or kids

schestowitz-TR

it might be cheaper to live close to work

DaemonFC

$1150 in rent (but cats are extra) at the closest apartment to where Mandy works.

Sep 21 00:09

DaemonFC

I'm glad that the landlord here seems to have gotten thumped hard after trying to raise the rent $45 a month and backed away.

Sep 21 00:10

DaemonFC

It seems like that cost him a few tenants maybe. He had some move out and it doesn't seem like the ones he was listing are flying off the market.

Sep 21 00:10

DaemonFC

So maybe he's happy with last year's rent while he hopes to see better days next year.

Sep 21 00:10

DaemonFC

The types he rents to are very sensitive to price and if they don't think they're getting a good deal they probably tell him so long and go look at what the other landlords that advertise down at the supermarket will offer them.

Sep 21 00:11

DaemonFC

There's too many people fleeing Waukegan with whatever they can carry to keep upwards pressure on the rent.

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

DaemonFC

It's turning into a zero sum game. You can't lose 0.8% of your city's residents every year for going on two decades and have pressure on rental price where it's a seller's market.

DaemonFC

Now they're going to turn on each other in a bidding war for the same tenants.

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, The property market is in for a severe contraction.

Sep 21 00:13

DaemonFC

The only thing holding it up for now is the Fed, and they blinked today and it cost the Dow nearly 1,000 points.

Sep 21 00:13

DaemonFC

See how that works? They say they may not buy MBS in the same amounts they currently do and the market loses so much of this fake value.

Sep 21 00:14

DaemonFC

They're a Central Bank. They shouldn't be holding ANY mortgages to begin with.

Sep 21 00:14

DaemonFC

That's not what they were designed to do in the financial market!

Sep 21 00:14

schestowitz-TR

'market'

schestowitz-TR

finance was supposed to be for markets

schestowitz-TR

bartering and all

schestowitz-TR

than finance itself became a "market"

schestowitz-TR

a bit like patents

schestowitz-TR

schestowitz-TR

Turning into the auto parts store yesterday, there was a guy who managed to drive over the curb that was approximately 8-9 inches high, scrape his undercarriage over it and then drive over it with the back axle too.

schestowitz-TR, If our landlord has this much trouble filling units right now, I can't imagine any reason why he wouldn't offer us a new lease.

DaemonFC

The last problem he needs is _another_ empty apartment that nobody wants.

He's one of the cheaper landlords in the area.

schestowitz-TR

the longer it's empty for, the lower the price will go

schestowitz-TR

anyway, one upside of covid seems to be lower rent prices

schestowitz-TR

because the market isn't lucative anymore

schestowitz-TR

many are just thankful they get any money, and don't need to battle for eviction

XRevan86

There is one good news though: LDPR is so dead.

DaemonFC

If he tries to raise our rent I'm going to mention that he tried raising the listing price of similar units and it didn't go so well and he had to lower them back down to what we pay.

schestowitz-TR

Excluding a DUI.

I'd argue it does more harm

schestowitz-TR

footage

schestowitz-TR

hotels

schestowitz-TR

you could use a disposable laptop with some streaming thing on it instead

schestowitz-TR

you could ever pre-record it

MinceR

and have your meeting spied on via intel ME, or via breaking the encryption, or via a bug in the "streaming thing"

Sep 21 02:44

MinceR

doesn't really apply to a public presentation, but not all meetings are that

Sep 21 02:44

schestowitz-TR

in the case of RMS, it's always filmed

schestowitz-TR

so during his talk there's even less privacy

schestowitz-TR

he could eat his toejam or whatever rocks his boat on a laptop

MinceR

that's fine, but not all meetings are filmed talks

schestowitz-TR

streaming

schestowitz-TR

nobody would notice

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, That "sovereign citizen in court" video wasn't all that exciting, but I still applaud him.

Sep 21 02:46

DaemonFC

He managed to waste half an hour of the court's time and they only fined him the $124.

Sep 21 02:47

MinceR

Sep 21 02:47

DaemonFC

So at least they didn't make any money off of it. They had to pay the prosecutor, the judge, the cop that came to testify against him, and the bailiff, to sit there and listen to all of that.

Sep 21 02:47

schestowitz-TR

we're about to do some ipfs testing in 20 mins

schestowitz-TR

hopefully no issues like yesterday

schestowitz-TR

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, I hear an awful lot of ridiculous arguments in court though.

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR

I just bought a new portable hard disk off of Walmart.

Sep 21 12:36

DaemonFC

I noticed they carried the one I was looking at on Amazon and between the 10% employee discount and the 5% in card points, it ended up being quite a bit cheaper with Walmart.

DaemonFC

Just trying to get back up and running.

DaemonFC

It turns out that I actually backed up the most important files in several places because I know how twitchy hard drives can be.

DaemonFC

I didn't expect mandy to be stupid enough to pick it up and then drop it on the floor though.

Intel and other hardware vendors don't explain how their hardware works.

DaemonFC

The Intel drivers are "FOSS" (not the firmware, but the drivers), but they're also heavily obfuscated.

So you can't look at the drivers and be aware of what they do or why.

DaemonFC: yes, it is an openwash

DaemonFC

There's no commenting, there's no explanation of how they work (because the people writing them have internal docs), and then in turn, they access the hardware through an abstraction layer.

schestowitz-TR

lots of linux (kernel) is an openwash now

schestowitz-TR

esp. the vendor stuff

schestowitz-TR

"stick thing code there..."

schestowitz-TR

"it'll do some stuff with our secret "IP"-protected hardware"

Sep 21 12:55

DaemonFC

And the hardware itself won't function unless you load a firmware blob on it that's already been compiled, which runs a significant amount of the hardware.

Sep 21 12:55

DaemonFC

So it goes Obfuscated driver ("open source") > Abstraction Layer > Device that is mostly implemented in proprietary software.

Sep 21 12:55

DaemonFC

And for this they call themselves "Intel Open Source".

Moreover, I wonder what the racial makeup will be of the people who have to pay for this shit.

I'm sure it will be completely fair and that any white person who is equally poor who goes in will be given their due consideration for the program.

schestowitz

you are unemployed

you are white

you are racist

DaemonFC

They're targeted at black people so she can buy votes for the next election.

DaemonFC

When she's otherwise completely failed them.

DaemonFC

And it only targets just enough for their votes that she could swing a close call. And then the payments will just stop.

MinceR

it's easy to hold a negative value, though

DaemonFC

I said, "Yeah, if you want to say 70% depreciation in the first 3 years is holding value.".

MinceR

it starts out as hazardous waste

*liberty_box (~liberty@qhduu73fcjmdn.irc) has joined #techrights

MinceR

and remains hazardous waste

schestowitz-TR

soon there will be AirPods 4S

MinceR

though i guess it might gain a little bit of value (but still stay in the negative) when it randomly explodes like a grenade

DaemonFC

MinceR, Here's their logic. "I can sell a iPhone that started out as a $1500 phone for $500. Now, if I had a Samsung that started out at $900, I could only sell it for $200. The iPhone holds its value!".

MinceR

lol

MinceR

it holds its value like new construction projects in red china

DaemonFC

I say, "Well, I just start at $400 and run it until it won't power on anymore and then sell it for scrap. It's not an investment. It's a phone.".

Sep 21 18:01

DaemonFC

MinceR, So, the drive Mandy dropped is completely dead.

Sep 21 18:02

DaemonFC

I suppose maybe it shouldn't have happened, of course, any time you drop something you can hit it exactly right so that it simply breaks.

Sep 21 18:03

DaemonFC

And it failed immediately after the drop, so there's no question of if that's what did it.

Sep 21 18:03

depends on what you drop

DaemonFC

It's a 4 TB drive.

https://pleated-jeans.com/2021/07/16/funny-internet-comments-07-16-21/

DaemonFC

According to reviews, they're at least no more _un_reliable than any other hard drive company.

Sep 21 18:15

DaemonFC

It's amazing that the old hard drives I've had just went and went without any failure for 20 years or more, but these new ones...look out.

Sep 21 18:15

DaemonFC

They start littering your event log with SMART errors after a couple of years maybe.

Sep 21 18:15

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, As far as Windows 11, there's even less difference now.

Sep 21 18:16

DaemonFC

They say they'll backport DirectStorage to Windows 10.

Sep 21 18:16

DaemonFC

The big thing is if you stay on 10, and many don't have a choice if they want to keep using Windows, you have about 3 years of security patches left.

Sep 21 18:17

DaemonFC

Then it becomes incredibly unsafe to use.

Sep 21 18:17

DaemonFC

And that's what Microsoft does, isn't it?

Sep 21 18:17

DaemonFC

Other than that, it's just the same old, same old. They re-released what was basically Windows 95 twice more as a cash grab. 8 times if you count the OEM update packs that kept things up to date enough for new hardware.

Sep 21 18:18

DaemonFC

They used a FAT32 and USB driver as leverage to make sure that people didn't choose to stay on Windows 95 and not have to deal with that IE mess. (At least until unofficial tools to remove IE came along.)

Sep 21 18:19

DaemonFC

In the end, though, all Windows 9x releases had end of life in 2006.

Sep 21 18:19

DaemonFC

So updating didn't even get you a reset on support.

Sep 21 18:19

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, I'm so mad at Lemonade I'm considering switching my renter's insurance.

Sep 21 18:21

DaemonFC

They sent me a denial letter saying that they wouldn't write me life insurance because I fessed up to having bipolar disorder.

Sep 21 18:21

DaemonFC

That was the only reason for an outright denial.

Sep 21 18:21

DaemonFC

I can understand if they said, we want you to prove you take medicine for it, or we may need to score you differently for premiums.

Sep 21 18:22

DaemonFC

Everyone has some kind of a condition or life circumstance that's on their list of questions.

Sep 21 18:22

DaemonFC

What do they do? Refuse to insure anyone who says "Yes."?

Sep 21 18:22

DaemonFC

For all we know, the 50 million (at least) who have had COVID should be denied a policy before a guy who has bipolar. Fuck, I have the presence of mind to value my life enough to get not one, not two, but three vaccine doses because I don't want to die.

Sep 21 18:23

DaemonFC

Much of the country that is refusing the vaccine is crazier than I am, albeit in a different way. They have really shitty math skills.

Sep 21 18:23

DaemonFC

Is that a mental illness? Well, listening to Facebook people who have every reason to lie to sell bunk products is definitely showing lack of rational thought.

Sep 21 18:24

DaemonFC

Not being able to calculate the odds of dying from the disease, which everyone who isn't vaccinated will eventually get, and get much worse, in the end, is a deficiency. Maybe they should include a fucking math test before you can get life insurance.

Sep 21 18:25

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, And these insurance people are not in the business to just write checks without asking questions.

Sep 21 18:33

DaemonFC

No type of insurance does that.

Sep 21 18:33

DaemonFC

And people who defraud insurance companies get caught eventually and the penalties are severe.

Sep 21 18:33

DaemonFC

So many people lie to get a policy issued, and sure that's not hard, but once you die they start an investigation that leads back, especially if it was suspicious.

Sep 21 18:34

DaemonFC

And then they can just keep the premiums and not pay out anything except to their investigator.

Sep 21 18:34

DaemonFC

There was actually a movie about a couple who committed insurance fraud and then accidentally killed the guy who was pretending to rob their house (because the wife wasn't in on it and found a crossbow and shot him), and then Phil Collins plays the investigator.

someone told me today that Windows and macOS have a different function from GNU/Linux based operating systems and that gives Microsoft a reason to exist, although we can see that the market share numbers appear to be declining for years

Sep 21 19:20

then that person told me that everything is going to move to SaaS, whether I want that or not (argument pulled out of a dark place?)

Sep 21 19:21

and all of that SaaS runs on GNU/Linux, so how is that an argument for keeping Windows around rather than getting rid of it

XRevan86: articles that lose audience can be wasted effort

schestowitz

BTW:

schestowitz

re Twitter

schestowitz

a week ago I wrote http://techrights.org/2021/09/14/hiding-tweets/

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Twitter — Like Google’s YouTube — is ‘Hiding’ Tweets From People Who Follow You | Techrights

schestowitz

wait for it, and brace as I get to the point

schestowitz

earlier this month Twitter changed something

schestowitz

not just for me

schestowitz

seemingly for everyone

schestowitz

We need RSS, CANNOT rely on social control media

schestowitz

impressions almost HALVED overnight

schestowitz

for no explainable reason

schestowitz

An hour ago I checked tuxmachines

schestowitz

same thing in Twitter

schestowitz

it happened almost a month ago

schestowitz

it's like they hide tweets from followers

schestowitz

I assume to promote divisive crap for "engagement"

schestowitz

this is the same thing Google does now in YouTube

schestowitz

so the audience is lost by means of some company tweaking something

schestowitz

meduza can be suppressed by putin via Google and Apple

schestowitz

I'm sure Twitter too would oblige whenever threatened with a ban in the "RUSHAN MARKET"

schestowitz

they are foolush

*mib_vmgp73 (~6b7f0b29@kjvq8jm9s83qu.irc) has joined #techrights

schestowitz

foolish and misguided

*inky (~inky@46.36.119.235) has joined #techrights

schestowitz

and knowing some people who use 'the web', I very much doubt many just enter meduza into their web browser to find stories

schestowitz

they cannot rely on social control media and google search

schestowitz

putin will shoot them cold

was gonna say russian version

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FidoNet#Zone_mail_hour

schestowitz

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | FidoNet - Wikipedia

schestowitz

schestowitz

Since computer bulletin boards historically used the same telephone lines for transferring mail as were used for dial-in human users of the BBS, FidoNet policy dictates that at least one designated line of each FidoNet node must be available for accepting mail from other FidoNet nodes during a particular hour of each day.[23]

schestowitz

Zone Mail Hour, as it was named, varies depending on the geographic location of the node, and was designated to occur during the early morning. The exact hour varies depending on the time zone, and any node with only one telephone line is required to reject human callers. In practice, particularly in later times, most FidoNet systems tend to accept mail at any time of day when the phone line is not busy, usually during night.

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | FidoNet - Wikipedia

schestowitz

"While the use of FidoNet has dropped dramatically compared with its use up to the mid-1990s, it is still used in many countries and especially Russia and former republics of the USSR.[citation needed] Some BBSes, including those that are now available for users with Internet connections via telnet, also retain their FidoNet netmail and echomail feeds.

I'm enjoying RMS' Kiev talk a lot more than the talk he gave in St. Petersburg.

schestowitz: His St. Petersburg talk was very standard, here he says things I haven't heard him say.

schestowitz-TR

yeah, but he is also unfamiliar with many things

schestowitz-TR

we've discussed this in TR

schestowitz-TR

he has not been keeping up with eelo/ /e/ for example

schestowitz-TR

and doesn't seem to know Gael Duval

schestowitz-TR

which is strange

XRevan86

Yea, he's talking about DRM like it's a danger that's coming, while it's already established its foot firmly now.

schestowitz-TR

Mandrake was at one point the leading desktop gnu/linux distro

schestowitz-TR

XRevan86: in many forms, yes

schestowitz-TR

but to me DRM is very distant

XRevan86

His talking points were so… 2016.

schestowitz-TR

I buy things that don't interact with it

schestowitz-TR

firefox got close

schestowitz-TR

like suggesting I enable "protected" media

XRevan86

The way he describe tivoisation didn't show awareness in just how widespread it is now.

XRevan86

describes

schestowitz-TR

I wonder if he knows FSF wrote about Twitter becoming JS-only

schestowitz-TR

ww wrote about this several times before FSF even noticed or said anything

schestowitz-TR

RMS was still in absentia at the time

schestowitz-TR

I suggested to him physical switches for microphones

schestowitz-TR

and he then told OEMs about it

schestowitz-TR

sometimes he does borrow ideas

schestowitz-TR

XRevan86: write to him

schestowitz-TR

he might even reply
