[21:13] schestowitz-TR2 Google hates copyleft [21:13] activelow at least i have an upgrade path without rust if webkit compilation succeed, and it doesn't require rust, only nasty c++ and regular compilation failures [21:14] DaemonFC Most people who shop at CostCo barely make back the money they spent on a CostCo card over the course of the year. [21:14] DaemonFC That's the entire point. It's why everything there is so cheap. [21:14] activelow it is noteworthy too, with webkit gcc seems to require regular updates too (or clang) since apple aggressively uses latest c++ features [21:14] DaemonFC They're betting that you use less value from the store than the card costs. [21:14] activelow and, the buildsystem requires ruby now, which i didn't want either, instead i can drop python2.7 which old firefox required [21:15] activelow and hopefully, webkit will be faster and more stable, because with firefox javascript deadlocks were reported regularly [21:16] *activelow raises an eyebrow over apple QA [21:17] activelow i hit several build system errors, arm64 specific (maybe apple rarely used aarch64 devices and didn't bother to test), and the non-opengl/non-egl codepath wasn't clean either [21:18] activelow then they must have thought a code generator from some IDL (interface description language) was desireable,... well, i think this is what header files exist for, given the fact it is only c++ implementing those interfaces [21:19] activelow don't like the idea yet another scripting language sneaked into the system [21:19] activelow ruby [21:26] activelow iirc, c++ originated in the telco realm... yes, stroustrup was a telco person, AT&T [21:26] activelow however, i think, if he had to follow some other engineering lecture, such as, analog signal processing, electronics, he might have not have the crazy ideas he had [21:30] activelow it is disgusting, so much, i'll depart from gnu/linux/bsd if i can, to somewhere else, where i can retain some sane brain with an efficient compiler and C lang and ASM which don't break standard library and language features every few weeks [21:32] activelow and i think efforts are better invested into some homebrew (a)x.25 networking stuff instead of any other modern radio gear [21:32] activelow to learn and do something useful, instead of loading any umts-firmware.blob [21:37] DaemonFC " My years-old cracks of REDACTED and REDACTED finally stopped working because they were 32 bit apps.

[21:37] DaemonFC There's no cracks needed for what I run in Wine because it's either freeware or so old that Gog removed the DRM anyway. [21:38] DaemonFC However, the binaries for Fallout 3, Oblivion, and New Vegas are so old that Wine improving Windows compatibility has introduced many of the same Crash To Desktop bugs into those games. [21:38] DaemonFC So I had to use the same workaround as on Windows 10. The Script Extender and the Anti-Crash mod it loads. [21:39] DaemonFC macOS 11.6 is an even bigger freak show than Windows.

" [22:22] schestowitz Today [22:22] schestowitz XP [22:22] schestowitz haaha [22:24] XRevan86 "defragging" is some kind of magic that affects the hard drive on the lowest of levels. Touches the firmware no less. [22:25] schestowitz-TR2 exactly [22:25] schestowitz-TR2 funny story [22:25] schestowitz-TR2 I used to obsessively defrag [22:25] XRevan86 (disclaimer: defragmentation is actually a filesystem-specific thing) [22:25] schestowitz-TR2 I think Windows 3.0 [22:25] schestowitz-TR2 I ran the dos defrag program almost every day [22:25] schestowitz-TR2 as a kid it gave me pleasure [22:25] schestowitz-TR2 'feeling' like the PC was 'tidy' [22:26] XRevan86 The word is "satisfaction". [22:26] schestowitz-TR2 of course now with gnu/linux we don't have such placebos [22:26] XRevan86 schestowitz: Sure we do, lots. [22:26] schestowitz-TR2 no, mental pleasure [22:26] schestowitz-TR2 like tidying up one's file [22:26] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR2, I grabbed defrag and notepad from Windows Me and put them into my Frankenstein Windows 98 with no IE and the Windows 95 B shell. [22:26] schestowitz-TR2 didn't know if it would affect performance [22:26] schestowitz-TR2 but it "looked" right [22:26] schestowitz-TR2 the arroy of sectors/blocks [22:26] DaemonFC Notepad had a higher limit and defrag didn't restart all the time. [22:26] schestowitz-TR2 **array [22:27] XRevan86 schestowitz: Check out xfs_fsr and e4defrag. [22:27] schestowitz-TR2 I quite likely just harmed the disk by spinning the magnets more [22:27] DaemonFC Windows Me had that System File Protection feature to prevent dll stomping. [22:27] DaemonFC But they didn't have Side by Side Assemblies. [22:27] DaemonFC So while it protected Windows itself, applications that needed a certain dll might fail. [22:27] schestowitz-TR2 XRevan86: remember I was very young [22:27] schestowitz-TR2 about 12 [22:28] schestowitz-TR2 or maybe 14 at most [22:28] XRevan86 schestowitz: Well, ye said it's not a thing. Well, it's a thing :). [22:28] schestowitz-TR2 that was a DOS program, not GUI [22:28] DaemonFC defraggler worked better than the XP defrag tool. [22:28] schestowitz-TR2 the HDD was 170 MB in capacity [22:28] DaemonFC I stopped the XP Defrag from running and set defraggler to go instead. [22:29] schestowitz-TR2 my IRC log files folder, plain text, is higher than that whole hard drive [22:29] schestowitz-TR2 and that was before CD-ROMs were on most PCs [22:30] schestowitz-TR2 I think defrag is useful for most things [22:30] schestowitz-TR2 unless you read a large file and there are many continuous blocks [22:30] schestowitz-TR2 like a large video file [22:30] schestowitz-TR2 otherwise you work off of RAM [22:31] XRevan86 schestowitz: Also if one has a CoW FS, one can obsessively run duperemove over and over again :) [22:31] schestowitz-TR2 but to a kid like me it was like a "rubber chicken" thing [22:33] schestowitz-TR2 just run the thing to perfection every night, hope it will help somehow... like cleaning leaves at a garden [22:34] schestowitz-TR2 (which rianne does meticulously every week) [22:38] *m___ has quit (Quit: Leaving.) [22:39] DaemonFC Fragmentation doesn't matter on flash storage. [22:39] DaemonFC Now it's more important to run trim every now and then. [22:40] DaemonFC It basically just tells the SSD's garbage collector to run. [22:40] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Right, but that's very hands-off. [22:40] DaemonFC Debian 11, at least, comes set up to run trim on your SSDs weekly. [22:40] DaemonFC If it misses because the computer is off, it runs the next time the system is up. [22:41] DaemonFC It's a bad idea to mount ext4 to trim automatically. [22:41] DaemonFC It absolutely kills file system performance. [22:41] XRevan86 So it doesn't mess with the psyche like the good-old HDD FS defragmentation does :). [22:41] DaemonFC Once a week should be fine. [22:42] XRevan86 Apparently some people got their SSDs destroyed by using "discard". I haven't, while having the same model. But I disabled it anyway, better safe than sorry. [22:43] activelow ssd wear levelling controllers are bad design [22:44] activelow i think, raid+nilfs2 are a better choice, without any hidden voodoo in the controller [22:45] activelow and, who knows what's hiding in the controller, with gigabytes of "overprovisioned" storage available [22:45] *AdmFubar1 (~mradmin@ngqaam7baxnug.irc) has joined #techrights [22:45] DaemonFC Facebook's "oversight board".

[22:48] schestowitz-TR2 over time that feature will lose its appeal [22:49] schestowitz-TR2 and that extra complexity can be a risk at D-R time [22:49] schestowitz-TR2 XRevan86: maybe in some cases the data is compressible [22:49] schestowitz-TR2 with lots of redundant data [22:49] schestowitz-TR2 like records of patients [22:50] schestowitz-TR2 video files are very large and typically already compressed very tightly [22:50] schestowitz ewww https://techstony.com/visual-studio-code-is-converted-to-a-web-application/ [22:50] -altlink_883/#techrights- Cloudflare: techstony.com | Alternative: https://web.archive.org/web/https://techstony.com/visual-studio-code-is-converted-to-a-web-application/ [22:50] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Visual Studio Code is converted to a web application - TechStony [22:50] schestowitz the new wave of Microsoft SPAM [22:50] schestowitz proprietary and now CLOWN [22:50] schestowitz promotional nonsense [22:50] XRevan86 schestowitz: Deduplication is still the simplest and most efficient solution for cases when there are many (partial) copies for some reason. [22:51] schestowitz your IDE... if not even running locally anymore... yay! progress! [22:51] XRevan86 It's practically free space. [22:52] schestowitz-TR2 I have a dumb question [22:52] schestowitz-TR2 say I have a zfs/openzfs /home partition [22:52] schestowitz-TR2 and it's deduplicated [22:52] XRevan86 But a cool daemon is not worth it if the only FS it supports is the let-me-corrupt-myself-randomly btrfs. [22:52] schestowitz-TR2 if I tar and gz the whole /home, will that compressed file be any smaller because of the de-dup? I think not. [22:53] XRevan86 schestowitz: Not in the slightest. But an uncompressed .tar will take more space. [22:54] schestowitz-TR2 the way I back up my laptop is not progressive [22:54] schestowitz-TR2 I just tar all of /home to external drives [22:54] schestowitz-TR2 that's what takes up most disk space -- many stacks of /home over time [22:55] schestowitz-TR2 restorting and reassembling tar files is simple, it's dated like a time machine [22:55] XRevan86 schestowitz: That can be significantly deduplication if not compressed. [22:55] XRevan86 * deduplicated [22:55] schestowitz-TR2 the backup files themsleves [22:55] XRevan86 yes [22:55] activelow i even backup system installations, since these are read-only squashfs, and to i archive and keep protocol logs of how these images were compiled, from which sources and when, git tag, sign hash [22:56] schestowitz-TR2 XRevan86: maybe I should look (in then future) into formatting that external media as btrfs [22:56] XRevan86 schestowitz: I really don't trust btrfs. But my experience may be out-of-date. [22:56] schestowitz-TR2 but each tar file is different [22:57] schestowitz-TR2 I don't know at what level it deduplicates? [22:57] schestowitz-TR2 File, block, sector? [22:57] XRevan86 schestowitz: The beauty of CoW is that it's not like hard links/. [22:57] schestowitz-TR2 I split the backup into 1GB files [22:57] XRevan86 schestowitz: Block. [22:58] XRevan86 or rather, pages [22:58] XRevan86 schestowitz: It's called reflinking, because it's based on reference counting to a page.

[23:09] activelow iirc apple "timemachine" followed some snashop approach, but it was a separate backup system, while nilfs2 inherently keeps snapshots of all fs-operations which is a better design [23:10] XRevan86 Result: mere 29 GiB of space.

You're sitting there tapping delete, rather than deleting them all at once. Every time you hit delete, it takes nearly 2 seconds for the next message to appear. It feels like 1996 up in this shit." [23:26] DaemonFC How can there be 300 messages in the cron folder if it's really an immutable file system? [23:26] DaemonFC Oh right, macOS really isn't immutable. [23:26] DaemonFC The adminsitrator can still get full disk access with sudo. [23:27] DaemonFC Society is going down the shitter. Carlin once spoke of language being debased.

[23:47] schestowitz-TR2 to convince you to drop vpn [23:47] schestowitz-TR2 and let the ISP sell your data [23:47] DaemonFC Yes, they know to say on the phone line "We're working to make VPNs more reliable on our network.". [23:48] DaemonFC They've been telling people this for the last year and at least 4 firmware updates. [23:48] schestowitz-TR2 they try to capture that niche [23:48] DaemonFC The problems have only been getting worse. Some people got the tech support to roll back the firmware, although none of them will do it with mine. [23:48] schestowitz-TR2 a few millions of people [23:48] DaemonFC It's possible the new hardware blows an eFuse with every firmware update to stop you from doing that. [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 those companies change the firmware without even telling you [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 also resetting your connection without warning [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 like "scheduled downtime" [23:49] DaemonFC Yes, with Comcast, they can do it on the modem you own. [23:49] DaemonFC In fact, if you take a modem that was used on Comcast, you have to have other cable companies remotely wipe it and then push their firmware to it, or it won't work on their network.

[23:50] DaemonFC They agree to not compete with each other in regions. [23:50] DaemonFC That way there's nobody to flee to if the service gets bad or the price goes up too much. [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 it's a "market sharing" collusion then [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 Microsoft tried to do that with Netscape [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 not that this is legal [23:51] DaemonFC schestowitz, The connection drops so quickly and then resumes again, I can only deduce that they do this deliberately every once in a while to knock you off the VPN. [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 not that Microsoft can be trusted [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 they collude against the public [23:51] DaemonFC Microsoft came to Netscape and said "Let us license your browser and distribute it.". [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 sometimes it's done with patents [23:52] DaemonFC And when Netscape said no, that's when they had to be utterly ruined with "Internet Explorer. [23:52] schestowitz-TR2 the idea is to raise the prices [23:52] DaemonFC Of course, if they said yes, they would have gone on for a while like Novell and then they would have filed bankruptcy then. [23:53] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR2, Lemonade bragged in a series of 7 now-deleted tweets that they're paying out fewer claims than ever. [23:53] DaemonFC Then raised our premium 14%. [23:53] schestowitz-TR2 price-fixing etc. [23:53] schestowitz-TR2 on components [23:53] schestowitz-TR2 and planned obsolescence [23:54] DaemonFC I don't know what I'll do with the car insurance come January. [23:54] DaemonFC But that's a disaster for a different month. [23:54] DaemonFC Many people say Metromile gives you a little bit really cheap and then starts raising your rates every time you renew. [23:54] schestowitz-TR2 politicians do the same [23:55] schestowitz-TR2 the way they cooperated to undermine Sanders last year [23:55] schestowitz-TR2 empire can share territories like this [23:55] DaemonFC I'll probably create a disposable email account so I don't get a barrage of spam "Hey are you still looking for insurance!". [23:55] DaemonFC Go get quotes from everyone again. [23:55] DaemonFC Mom is one of those fools who goes "They give me a loyalty discount!" but then her rates go up every year. [23:55] DaemonFC How does that work, right? :) [23:56] DaemonFC They give you a discount and then they raise the base premium more than the discount. So you get a penalty for staying with them. [23:56] DaemonFC They separate the people who are unlikely to switch from the rest of the pack and really stick it to them.
