Mint. LOL

Why do people who work at Microsoft need to access their paycheck before payday?

I'm never disappointed when I look at The Layoff's Microsoft board.

DaemonFC

Today: Microsoft's internal network collapsed, panicking employees that they might be some of the 11,000 laid off.

DaemonFC

Also, racists venting that they were laid off, but "brown people" still work for the company.

DaemonFC

"XBOX fell to only 1/4 of the gaming console market, vs Playstation at nearly 3/4ths, by browser hits. (2021 was 60.6% Playstation and 36.8% XBOX)

gnu/linux games?

schestowitz[TR]

naaa

schestowitz[TR]

don't need them

schestowitz[TR]

schestowitz[TR]

ok,k we have some, but not many

schestowitz[TR]

now:

schestowitz[TR]

I've lost track of how many AAA titles are not native on gnu/linux or on proton

psydruid

almost everything works

schestowitz[TR]

*now

schestowitz[TR]

proton (wine) will complete compatibility

schestowitz[TR]

over time

schestowitz[TR]

many layoffs in xbox last year and this year

psydruid

I've only seen a few games that don't work using wine or proton

schestowitz[TR]

the shop we went to had only platstation

schestowitz[TR]

house of fraser

schestowitz[TR]

ps5 everywhere

schestowitz[TR]

turns out they now dominate the mrket

schestowitz[TR]

they always did

schestowitz[TR]

but the gap widened

DaemonFC

Microsoft's XBOX is rooted in anti-Asian racism.

Jan 22 04:43

psydruid

this is not on any of my computers but on my mum's laptop I've created accounts from some of her grandchildren including one for my nephew

Jan 22 04:43

schestowitz[TR]

DaemonFC: how so?

Jan 22 04:43

DaemonFC

The Project to create DirectX was to wipe out the Japanese from the market, so they called it "The Manhattan Project" and gave it a radiation symbol.

schestowitz[TR]

you mean, "not japan"?

psydruid

and there I've installed Steam and Lutris

DaemonFC

DirectX was always going to be in a game console in the end.

schestowitz[TR]

with DRM

DaemonFC

Yeah, Bill Gates had his "thoughts on the future" of course.

DaemonFC

Where "in the future" you would just license and download "content" and it would be locked to that particular machine.

schestowitz[TR]

did he finishh college?

DaemonFC

The XBOX One.

schestowitz[TR]

did "mom" help him achieve this goal?

DaemonFC

The only reason the XBOX and XBOX 360 didn't do that much is because the storage wasn't there.

schestowitz[TR]

bill is the maxwell (maiden name) that did not have sex with jeffrey epstein

DaemonFC

They depended on DVDs, even when this was comically insufficient for the XBOX 360 era and they had to downres games and cut content from the game that was in the PS3 version.

schestowitz[TR]

i see

schestowitz[TR]

well, anyway, all consoles suck

schestowitz[TR]

even steam deck

DaemonFC

Rockstar said they were amazed they could do a version of GTA V on the 360 at all.

schestowitz[TR]

they are basically hardware gone wrong

schestowitz[TR]

limited artificicxally

schestowitz[TR]

to get you to buy and buy and buy

schestowitz[TR]

or rather, rent

schestowitz[TR]

DRM

DaemonFC

They said they were constantly constrained by either DVD or by the amount of RAM or how much they could ask of the graphics processor.

DaemonFC

The PS3 and PS4 versions are better.

schestowitz[TR]

Rockstar are thugs anyway

schestowitz[TR]

schestowitz[TR]

I liked Max Payne

DaemonFC

The soundtrack is bigger, the radio stations have more songs, the graphics are higher resolution and not jagged, they didn't have to cut the "in-car" camera angle.

schestowitz[TR]

Rockstar's classic

DaemonFC

It runs at a higher frame rate.

schestowitz[TR]

but could only play that on a machine that was not mine

DaemonFC

They had to scuttle a lot to make the XBOX 360 version play at all.

DaemonFC

Now that Microsoft is firing from "343 Industries" we know what's going on.

schestowitz[TR]

you could tie this togethjer

schestowitz[TR]

schestowitz[TR]

and do a blog post

DaemonFC

The "IP" they kept from Bungie is not going to help them anymore, so they fire.

schestowitz[TR]

I only know xbox lost them a ton of money

DaemonFC

To point out what this means for XBOX...

schestowitz[TR]

stopped keeping track around 2011

http://techrights.org/wiki/XBox_Reality_Log

schestowitz[TR]

DaemonFC

It would be like Nintendo gutting the division that makes Super Mario games.

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | XBox Reality Log - Techrights

DaemonFC

If they do that, it would mean no more Nintendo.

schestowitz[TR]

there was one regular here in irc from microsoft uk

DaemonFC

So Microsoft is cutting into the "Super Mario" of XBOX, the Halo stuff.

schestowitz[TR]

he worked for some gaming studio

schestowitz[TR]

taken by microsoft

schestowitz[TR]

of course microsoft shut them down

schestowitz[TR]

something called lion or brave heart something

DaemonFC

If you're cutting into Halo, it means you no longer think the XBOX Division is worth it.

schestowitz[TR]

you would know which ine..

schestowitz[TR]

*one

DaemonFC

These are First Party games that they dump a lot of money into to convince people to buy the console.

schestowitz[TR]

or sonic for sega

DaemonFC

Then they branch out and buy third party once they own the thing.

DaemonFC

Yeah, it's just not good business to be cutting into your First Party stuff.

DaemonFC

You want a strong franchise that never gets releases for anything else that forces people to decide, and they choose yours.

DaemonFC

Nintendo does AAA First Party stuff and they do it so well that their customers don't even care that they're always #3 in hardware by speed, graphics, RAM sizes.

Jan 22 04:52

DaemonFC

You see Nintendo and you know you're getting strong First Party titles that nobody else has.

Jan 22 04:52

DaemonFC

You don't really stare at specifications.

Jan 22 04:52

DaemonFC

Microsoft turned it into a dick measuring contest, and they're losing it badly.

DaemonFC

After 8 failed consoles from Microsoft, I sold it on Craigslist.

DaemonFC

And I've only had a Nintendo ever since.

psydruid

Microsoft has made it even easier by moving to an x86 PC based platform that you can emulate or rather virtualise on any modern general-purpose x86 computer

DaemonFC

The XBOX is expensive, it's fucking crap, the DRM situation is horrid.

psydruid

so there is little reason to ever buy an Xbox anymore

DaemonFC

You know, the Switch is a good console. It's very easy to use.

DaemonFC

It has a lot of good games.

DaemonFC

It's not insanely expensive.

DaemonFC

It doesn't use a lot of power (it's portable too).

DaemonFC

It doesn't sit there and cook itself to death.

schestowitz[TR]

psydruid: remember the wsl shill here in irc?

schestowitz[TR]

forgot his name

schestowitz[TR]

he vanished anyway

DaemonFC

It doesn't have a company that spends billions of dollars on a "really nice looking bathroom" in the level that serves no purpose to the game.

DaemonFC

They run a tight ship.

schestowitz[TR]

went to rancher

schestowitz[TR]

no more wsl

psydruid

matlock

psydruid

Hayden Barnes

DaemonFC

The XBOX has a lot of problems.

schestowitz[TR]

yeah

DaemonFC

It's not fun and they've gotten way too greedy.

DaemonFC

And there's consequences now.

schestowitz[TR]

the only microsofter still here is doxxing, swatting, stabbing,defaming

psydruid

I remember because I called him out and went really hard against him

DaemonFC

You can't just sit there throwing money at something.

psydruid

but he deserved to for writing crap here during his "holidays"

Jan 22 04:57

DaemonFC

You have to have engineers that understand what they're building. You have to have artists, level designers, people who understand gameplay mechanics.

Jan 22 04:57

DaemonFC

The XBOX Hardware is just insanely bad. Nobody sat there and said "These are the games we want to do, and we'll build the machine from there.".

Jan 22 04:57

DaemonFC

THey just get on the horn with Intel and AMD and say "Send us some PC shit.".

schestowitz[TR]

at one point he created his own company and iirc distro for wsl

schestowitz[TR]

before canonical picked up this perp

schestowitz[TR]

a lot of canonical wsl people left

schestowitz[TR]

inc. the cto

schestowitz[TR]

probably disgusted

schestowitz[TR]

inc. barnes

schestowitz[TR]

prior to him branding himself "unix" guy he just worked at some court

schestowitz[TR]

nothing even technical iirc

DaemonFC

Everything should have a purpose or not be there. Overdesign kills projects.

schestowitz[TR]

or maybe some microsoft vucketboy

schestowitz[TR]

*bucker

schestowitz[TR]

waterboy

psydruid

Xbox is just a strategical project to maintain their hold over the consumer market

techrights-ipfs-bot

schestowitz[TR]

anyway, lots suspicious about it

schestowitz[TR]

his company... failed

schestowitz[TR]

wsl... failed

schestowitz[TR]

canonical... failed

schestowitz[TR]

but who gained?

schestowitz[TR]

microsoft

schestowitz[TR]

canonical is losing many geeks

DaemonFC

XBOX failing all by itself will be a massive black eye for Microsoft.

psydruid

if they hadn't done it they would have been wiped from the consumer gaming market by now

schestowitz[TR]

they don't tolerate working for windows pushers

DaemonFC

I think what we're going to witness is a "strategic retreat" from money losers.

Jan 22 05:00

DaemonFC

And most of that is in the consumer sector.

Jan 22 05:00

DaemonFC

At some point you'll hear that the XBOX is unsupported and there is no replacement and everyone there is fired.

Jan 22 05:00

psydruid

and that would have signalled the beginning of the end of Microsoft in the general consumer market

schestowitz[TR]

"unixterminal"

schestowitz[TR]

not even LINUX

DaemonFC

This division is going sour fast and anyone in management looking at the financials is going to have to pull the plug.

schestowitz[TR]

schestowitz[TR]

schestowitz[TR]

so you know wsl failed

schestowitz[TR]

even its most vocal boosters left it behind

schestowitz[TR]

and got rewarded... by MICROSOFT

schestowitz[TR]

why did SUSE and Canonical hire a MICROSOFTER?

schestowitz[TR]

schestowitz[TR]

then they hired someone whose name I keep forgetting

Believe it or not, the Postal Service used to deliver things even more exciting than credit card preapprovals and extended car warranty offers. People actually sent important things to one another, like love letters, which was basically sexting but slower."

"Coming home to find that a bald eagle has taken up roost in your home can be a confusing time. It’s simultaneously a patriotic milestone and a nightmare of Hitchcockian proportions. If this should happen to you, many questions may come to mind: Am I in the right house? Do I even know this eagle? How bad do I really need a house, anyway? What’s the penalty for arson?

Jan 22 07:17

Faced with this predicament, a few brave souls might consider attempting a self-help eviction of the eagle. After all, it is your home. How sharp can those talons really be? Eagles are basically just large pigeons with a strong sense of country. Right?"

"THE LAWFUL APPROACH

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-petewarden.com | Go see Proxistant Vision at SFMCD « Pete Warden's blog

DaemonFC

Step 1: Panic. This is healthy, and it’s a natural part of the process. Don’t forget, you have an eagle in your house.

DaemonFC

Step 2: Cry a little. Remember: eagle in the house.

DaemonFC

Step 3: Apply for your permit.

DaemonFC

Step 4: Wait for a decision. By law, the regional migratory bird permit office will not issue a permit unless the director determines that your removal of the eagle is “compatible with the preservation of the bald or golden eagle.” If the director decides the eagle is better off living with you for a while, move on to Step 5.

DaemonFC

Step 5: Accept it. You live with a bald eagle now. Try to make the best of it and respect each other’s space. "

"THE CRIMINAL APPROACH

Jan 22 07:19

DaemonFC

Most states endorse some form of the “castle doctrine,” which permits a homeowner to use deadly force against a violent intruder in his or her home. But this is a bald eagle we’re talking about, not just some stupid person, so that defense doesn’t apply. Getting rid of this intruder without a permit can’t be done without a little lawbreaking."

techrights-ipfs-bot

Jan 22 07:20

DaemonFC

"Unfortunately, Wikipedia doesn’t have an entry for “eagle removal,” so it’s really anybody’s guess on how to go about the removal or what constitutes appropriate eagle-removal gear. Presumably, though, offenders will at least want to have eye protection and some rubber gloves. Coupled with some sort of implement for guiding the eagle out of the house, this makeshift setup may give you just the right level of confidence

Jan 22 07:21

DaemonFC

to calmly approach an eagle and bring the situation to a peaceful end.

Jan 22 07:21

DaemonFC

But none of that is realistic. If you try to remove an eagle from your house, it’s totally going to attack you. (See Fig. 2-15.) Even if the risk of federal charges wasn’t enough to deter you from this plan, knowing the pain of eight razor-sharp raptor talons in your back probably would have done it. But it’s too late now. This is why it’s important to always read ahead."

Jan 22 07:21

DaemonFC

"Anyway, the good news is that you’ll probably pass out shortly into your tangle with the eagle, either from panic or blood loss. Eventually the eagle will have had enough of your pathetic display and leave through whatever window it was that you stupidly left open in the first place. Problem solved."

"In 2009, a grand jury indicted a man named Bernard von NotHaus under both statutes.8 Despite his name, von NotHaus wasn’t indicted for being a Bond villain. The government alleged that he had minted coins of his own design called “Liberty Dollars” and that they were made to look like U.S. coins. The indictment also alleged that von NotHaus intended to introduce the Liberty Dollar coins into the U.S. economy in order to compete with

DaemonFC

U.S. currency. The government didn’t like that, so it charged him under both Section 485 and Section 486.

DaemonFC

At trial, the government called a professional numismatist as an expert witness to weigh in on the similarities between the Liberty Dollars and genuine U.S. coins. He noted the use of reeded edges, a serif font, phrases like “In God We Trust,” and the word “Liberty” were all attributes shared by the coins.

DaemonFC

Also important was the Liberty Dollar’s use of the Statue of Liberty on one of its sides. That iconic symbol of liberty, coupled with the other factors the government numismatist identified, were sufficient for a finding that von NotHaus had made coins with sufficient “similitude” to authentic U.S. coins. The jury found von NotHaus guilty on all counts of the indictment."

I remember "Liberty Dollar" commercials on TV. I thought that guy is going to be so fucked when the government figures out a way to deal with him.

"One of the reasons that our prisons aren’t yet full of food criminals is that the FDA and USDA like to handle things their own way. Violations of food regulations are often addressed out of court by a strongly worded letter to the food maker telling them to get their act together or else. In late 2017 a Massachusetts bakery learned this the hard way after it had the temerity to list “love” as an ingredient in its granola bars. Th

DaemonFC

e FDA sent the bakery a letter warning that “ ‘Love’ is not a common or usual name of an ingredient, and is considered to be intervening material because it is not part of the common or usual name of the ingredient.” According to the FDA, this rendered the granola bars misbranded under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and subjected the bakery to sanctions. The FDA stopped short of noting that listing “love” as an ing

DaemonFC

redient could also be charged as a federal crime.7

DaemonFC

The moral of the story, of course, is that if you’re going to make your food with love, the FDA wants you to please just shut up about it. And if “love” is a euphemism for some other ingredient, you’d better tell us what it is right now.

DaemonFC

Yet, even if the FDA’s granola letter demonstrated its deep disdain for love, another of its warning letters revealed that the agency might actually have a soft spot, and that soft spot is mayonnaise. In mid-2015 the FDA issued a warning to a company for selling vegan “mayo.” According to the FDA, it was necessarily misbranded because real mayonnaise contains eggs, and vegan mayonnaise is made out of whatever the heck vegan mayonnai

DaemonFC

se is made out of. In a heartwarming twist, however, the FDA and the mayo company later announced that they had “met to discuss the issues cited in the warning letter and worked together to address them.”8"

For those of us refined enough to know when and where to use ketchup properly, there is some good news: federal regulations classify ketchup as a vegetable. That makes it a lot easier to justify a pile of french fries as a healthy choice.

DaemonFC

Although federal law may not regulate the appropriate uses of ketchup, it does regulate its consistency. Specifically, 21 C.F.R. § 155.194 provides that ketchup may not flow at a rate faster than 14 centimeters in 30 seconds at 20°C, as measured by a “Bostwick Consistometer.” (See Fig. 4-12.) Any faster and it fails to meet the standard of identity for ketchup, making it a misbranded food under 21 U.S.C. § 343(h). Thus, while y

DaemonFC

ou may break your hand trying to get it out of the bottle, at least you can know your thick ketchup is legal.

DaemonFC

For the offender who respects precision, federal law provides a detailed road map for measuring and perfecting the ideal level of ketchup runniness.

"Canned or frozen spinach has its own surprises. Every 24 pounds of it can have a total of 12 millimeters of caterpillar. Thus, three 2-millimeter caterpillars are okay, but two 7-millimeter caterpillars are a little too much."

psydroid2

maybe let's not have wikipedia but rather a network of wikipedias

schestowitz[TR]

maybe

schestowitz[TR]

how oduld changes be managed?

schestowitz[TR]

like rs.wikipedia.org ?

schestowitz[TR]

*ru

schestowitz[TR]

they already have localised ones

immibis

psydroid2: you mean like conservapedia?

schestowitz[TR]

but the problem is that it boils down to edit wars

psydruid

maybe not managed

schestowitz[TR]

NOT facts

psydruid

yes, thousands of wikipedias

immibis

psydruid: you can make one. mediawiki software is open-source

psydruid

to take power away from THE wikipedia

schestowitz[TR]

you can fork wikipedia

schestowitz[TR]

some people keep their own versions of some articles/pages

immibis

you're doing the standard conservative platform hatred thing. They always want to make a conservative version of a thing and then it doesn't work because conservatism itself is bullshit

schestowitz[TR]

at the end of the day it is a human problem

schestowitz[TR]

we the monkeys want to dominate the arrative

schestowitz[TR]

even if it is false

schestowitz[TR]

or "make belief"

schestowitz[TR]

to some people, "allah is the only god"

schestowitz[TR]

and anything in wikipedia claiming otherwise is heresy

schestowitz[TR]

in politics, the fake left calls one side bigots

schestowitz[TR]

and henceconservapedia?

immibis

conservatism is an attempt to gaslight the entire population to believe things that are not true

schestowitz[TR]

to make matters worse, even academic papers are now politicised and controlled by sompcnies

schestowitz[TR]

"sponosrs"

immibis

they are upset that wikipedia says a lot of things that are true

immibis

so they want to make their own wikipedia that contains things that are not true. But the problem is that it's useless, because the things it says aren't true.

schestowitz[TR]

wikipedia also OMITS many things that bare true

schestowitz[TR]

so they make criminals seem like decentg people

schestowitz[TR]

and rogue orgs seem like OK

immibis

yes, Space Station 13 has a wikipedia page but BYOND doesn't despite BYOND being a platform for more games than just SS13

immibis

it is the game engine on which SS13 is written

immibis

imagine if Macbook had a wikipedia page but Apple did not because Apple was "not notable"

schestowitz[TR]: I think you're confused about how the technical committee works

Jan 22 21:32

mjg59_

schestowitz[TR]: Nobody could "put" me there. I nominated myself and the board chose to elect me.

Jan 22 21:32

mjg59_

Er, s/board/committee

Jan 22 21:33

DaemonFC

You mean the hacks and cronies that were already there.

Jan 22 21:39

DaemonFC

Like how Mitch Daniels appointed the board of Purdue, then they appointed him after he left the Governor's office.

Jan 22 21:39

DaemonFC

Then once he was at Purdue, there was a banned book list.

Jan 22 21:39

DaemonFC

Eventually, things got so bad that Indiana University filed to get out of IUPUI and IPFW because they had a reputation to maintain.

Jan 22 21:40

DaemonFC

You mean they put you on Debian because of a similar arrangement and bad things will come of it and the idea is that you and the other trolls will finish Debian off and remove a threat to Microsoft.

Jan 22 21:41

DaemonFC

You already had most of your work done for you I suppose.

Jan 22 21:41

DaemonFC

It doesn't seem like they actually know what they're doing with packaging and integration. If anything, it's gotten worse.

Jan 22 21:41

DaemonFC

The Debian/Ubuntu world is sort of dead already as far as where the community is off to.

Jan 22 21:42

DaemonFC

It happened for a lot of reasons inclusing woke-ism, but mostly because of the breakdown in technical quality.

Jan 22 21:43

DaemonFC

If the worst thing going on with a software project is trannies with blue hair raging about microaggressions on a Web site, well, you can just not go to that Web site presuming the software works.

Jan 22 21:43

DaemonFC

So there's more to this, like Firefox, than that.

Jan 22 21:44

DaemonFC

The technical superiority is gone. It's gone from meritocracy with ideals to a kakistokracy with Matt GULAG.

Jan 22 21:44

DaemonFC

If the worst thing about Firefox was the "political party" problem at Mozilla, well, don't go there except to the download page, maybe.

Jan 22 21:45

DaemonFC

But Mozilla is malware that is barely even Web compatible.

Jan 22 21:45

DaemonFC

So why use it?

Jan 22 21:45

DaemonFC

The biggest ways the "Web platform" changes in Firefox is when they blind-copy stuff out of Chromium and change some lines to shim it up to Firefox.

Jan 22 21:46

DaemonFC

Gecko development hardly even happens anymore.

Jan 22 21:46

DaemonFC

They have enough people to cargo cult Chrome (barely) and plug CVEs.

Jan 22 21:46

DaemonFC

I think there are probably more people taskes with adding and maintaining the malware in Firefox than there are Firefox itself.

Jan 22 21:47

DaemonFC

*tasked

Jan 22 21:47

DaemonFC

When malware was a new concept and was relatively primitive, I took the initiative in helping devise solutions to get it off of people's computers or to render it inoperable.

Jan 22 21:49

DaemonFC

At first, the malware authors primarily took advantage of the fact that most people didn't know anything about computers, much less why their Windows machine was popping up porn sites and hijacking their Web browser.

Jan 22 21:49

DaemonFC

So it was crude, bundled with something, and didn't really anticipate the user taking steps to get rid of it.

Jan 22 21:50

DaemonFC

Eventually "fighting back" against programs to remove it was a priority, because enough people were affected that there was a cottage industry for removal software for it.

Jan 22 21:51

DaemonFC

I'm primarily not talking about viruses because anti-virus software had been around for years.

Jan 22 21:51

DaemonFC

Today, Firefox is malware. It's built right into the binary, and you can't call it Firefox if you remove it.

Jan 22 21:51

DaemonFC

When you type anything into the address bar, Firefox sends it to three places. Google, Mozilla Pocket, and an "advertising partner" that runs "Suggest".

Jan 22 21:52

DaemonFC

So it's a keylogger transmitting to at least three organizations.

Jan 22 21:52

DaemonFC

Sarbanes-Oxley requires them to not throw anything away.

Jan 22 21:53

DaemonFC

So if you start typing in "the wrong thing" into Firefox, well, they know you did it, and it's there forever, and not one, not two, but three companies can be hit by a warrant.

Jan 22 21:53

DaemonFC

But even if that doesn't happen, they're doing it to drive three separate ad systems too.

Jan 22 21:54

DaemonFC

And ads suck.

Jan 22 21:54

DaemonFC

They create a profile of your computer and how you use Firefox. How many tabs do you use? What times of the day are you opening it? How long does it run per session? All kinds of stuff. And that gets assigned a GUID and associated with Firefox Account.

Jan 22 21:55

DaemonFC

Along with your entire browser history and all of your bookmarks and passwords. And they can decrypt them.

Jan 22 21:55

DaemonFC

Again, Sarbanes-Oxley.

Jan 22 21:56

DaemonFC

The only thing that happens when you press delete is that you lose your copy.

Jan 22 21:56

DaemonFC

Don't you love California?

Jan 22 21:56

DaemonFC

mjg59_, Debian is not Free Software.

Jan 22 21:57

DaemonFC

They don't even pretend to be anymore.

Jan 22 21:57

DaemonFC

But even if they were, it's not good. They don't set anything up properly.

Jan 22 21:57

DaemonFC

It's an integration mess. The whole thing is a rats nest of software in configurations it was not designed to work in.

Jan 22 21:58

DaemonFC

A 14 year old could set up Gentoo better than this.

Jan 22 21:58

DaemonFC

Are you going to fix any of that or are you just going to scream about who needs to be canceled?

Jan 22 21:58

DaemonFC

I think you're just going to bring toxicity and drama while the technical problems get worse.

Jan 22 22:00

Most of the "Linux" complaints I've seen from people tend to center on something I've only ever witnessed Debian or Ubuntu doing.

@DaemonFC

DaemonFC

What went wrong with ZFS on Ubuntu?

DaemonFC

Simply (in no particular order):

DaemonFC

Canonical got quack legal advice that it was lawful to combine two incompatible licenses.

DaemonFC

The upstream Linux kernel disavowed it and removed deprecated kernel features that ended up crippling ZFS performance.

DaemonFC

It doesn't fit most use cases very well, it loses data without non-default debugging options, and it was overdesigned by Sun.

DaemonFC

BtrFS got massively better lately.

DaemonFC

Canonical lacks engineering experience of this caliber.

phanes

@DaemonFC

DaemonFC

I've maintained a heavily modified variant of some Linux distributions for my own use, and on my worst day, I never hacked anything together as badly as Canonical does, even though I never released it for anyone else.

DaemonFC

If I did something and ran into a bug and I didn't understand quite what went wrong, I'd stop, investigate, and back it out because I didn't want my own data to get corrupted.

DaemonFC

Ubuntu has very low standards. They pour a lot of money into suboptimal solutions just to throw away.

I appreciate that when I'm running into a problem with Linux (rarely), I can join an IRC room and speak directly to the engineers about what's going on instead of Windows, where it's someone in another country making pennies asking if I reset the computer or a forum where the solution is penis enlargement pills.

Nobody sues the government and wins.

DaemonFC

They steal money from me and give it to the person THEY harmed.

DaemonFC

That would be like saying I got caught speeding, so they give mjg59_ the ticket.

phanes

DaemonFC, it happens everyday all over the country. Laws are constantly overturned and municipalities sanctioned as a result when overreach is determined.

DaemonFC

I mean, that'll sure teach me not to speed.

DaemonFC

That's how police brutality lawsuits against the city work.

Then they filled pillowcases with bars of soap that night and beat the shit out of him.

DaemonFC

Motivation.

DaemonFC

Of course, he caused Pyle to have a mental breakdown and kill him.

DaemonFC

So there was that.

DaemonFC

You don't send a message by punishing someone for their bad behavior.

DaemonFC

You send a message by punishing someone else. Someone they care about. You horrify them. You traumatize them. You make them live with it forever.

Jan 22 23:02

DaemonFC

But you don't touch a hair on their head.

DaemonFC

If you kill a person, their suffering is over.

Jan 22 23:03

DaemonFC

If you put out the hit on their children, they suffer.

Jan 22 23:03

DaemonFC

If you want them to suffer, you don't hurt them at all.

DaemonFC

You send your thugs and wait until their kids are out playing in the yard, and well.

Jan 22 23:04

phanes

when it comes to war, both sides' moral position are critical factors

Jan 22 23:04

phanes

if you compromise yours by deed, you give the enemy an advantage

DaemonFC

We know Gus Fring in Breaking Bad will order the murder of a child.

DaemonFC

He did it once.

phanes

if they compromise yours by lies, they've taken that advantage but assumed a risk for later

DaemonFC

So when he threatened Walter "I will kill you. I will kill your wife. I will kill your son. I will kill your infant daughter.".

DaemonFC

He meant it.

phanes

DaemonFC, when i talk about them assuming a risk for later that's an important distinction too, because it becomes useful later while building them up on a false platform that can be destroyed later

Jan 22 23:06

DaemonFC

Walter's death made sense in that context.

Jan 22 23:06

DaemonFC

Walter was a danger to Gus in many ways.

Jan 22 23:06

phanes

yeah but that's a movie character

DaemonFC

Sure.

phanes

and they're meth dealers / cartel mobsters

phanes

they're not fighting a war with winners and losers they're running a criminal enterprise

DaemonFC

Most people are motivated by avoiding punishment.

DaemonFC

Including me.

DaemonFC

Obviously, like everyone else, my sense of morality doesn't quite line up with the law, but the threat of punishment keeps me in line.

Jan 22 23:10

DaemonFC

Well, every normal person.

Jan 22 23:10

phanes

that's why the law is there

Jan 22 23:10

phanes

there are many morally justifiable things in life that are prevented by the law

Jan 22 23:11

phanes

even if there weren't, most people don't have a developed moral compass

Jan 22 23:11

phanes

it would be impossible for them to navigate

Jan 22 23:12

phanes

so, the law is necessary

Jan 22 23:12

immibis

DaemonFC: the government losing a suit is a punishment in the sense that the department was given a certain amount of money, and now it doesn't get to use all of that money. Remember, corporations also steal your money, so by your logic we shouldn't sue them either

DaemonFC

Apartheid officials have figured out that they don't need any laws to keep American cities segregated.

DaemonFC

They can do it by promoting "economic development" which raises rent until the "undesirables" are gone.

DaemonFC

If you can't afford an apartment in the neighborhood, the law can say you can live there if you want to and the White people don't have to worry much.

DaemonFC

This is why people like Matt GULAG like San Francisco.

Maybe that landlord lady will finally give up trying to get that 80s AIDS survivor out of his rent controlled unit with the help of Big Daddy Government and torch the place.

I certainly hope not, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Landlords there get away with setting fire to their own building all the time and claiming "loss of use insurance" until the tenant gives up on trying to come back, then they rebuild. Very common in SF.

San Francisco doesn't really investigate arson or there'd be a lot of landlords in prison in California.

In 1906, Upton Sinclair released his book, The Jungle, which exposed the horrific and disgusting food industry practices in the United States.

DaemonFC

By far, they were the worst in the meat packing industry.

DaemonFC

His goal was to expose how evil and corrupt Capitalism is and cause a Socialist revolt.

DaemonFC

Instead, Congress created the USDA and today our food is slightly less off putting than Sinclair portrayed it.

DaemonFC

The definition of potted meat is virtually identical to Sinclair's.
