schestowitz

the trade-off is, wear or tear

schestowitz

I prefer wear

schestowitz

with some of the "modern" thing is tears apart for each bad platter or sector

scientes2

Using digital has no down sides

schestowitz

not the medium

schestowitz

but the formats

schestowitz

they're not made to deal with missing data

scientes2

Digital on tape is way superior

schestowitz

they cannot interpolate at all

scientes2

But they can be

schestowitz

they can

scientes2

Look at opus

schestowitz

I did not check opus on lossy lines

schestowitz

we use opus in techrights

scientes2

Opus had incredible redundancy options

scientes2

Specifically designed for radio

schestowitz

libopus

schestowitz

128000 bitrate

https://opus-codec.org/static/comparison/quality.svg

scientes2

The jitter redundancy

Feb 24 00:11

scientes2

So no, for packet network, not radio

Feb 24 00:11

scientes2

Like LTE

Feb 24 00:11

scientes2

Opus is an incredible codec

Feb 24 00:12

scientes2

It obsoletes everything except FLAC

schestowitz

FLAC for video?

Feb 24 00:16

scientes2

Feb 24 00:16

scientes2

Nah video has a long way to come

Feb 24 00:16

scientes2

What they used in digital television blows

scientes2

Your whole picture will just come and go, with no backup

schestowitz

they just lay down more equipment

schestowitz

with DRM and all

schestowitz

more fans

schestowitz

to decrypt crap

schestowitz

that nobody cares for anyway

scientes2

It's MPEG-2

schestowitz

why more better codecs?

schestowitz

lay down more pipes and routers, cheaper than innovating :-)

Feb 24 00:18

scientes2

But there was no effort for radio loss and graceful decay

Feb 24 00:18

scientes2

Also they don't want to admit that amazon et cetera are robbing people on bandwidth prices

Feb 24 00:18

schestowitz

I saw bills

schestowitz

they start cheap

schestowitz

to lock you in

schestowitz

even 'free'

schestowitz

and then you can be charges hundreds of pounds per month... on machines you can buy anew for that same price

scientes2

Their prices are insane, I don't understand of why anyone used them

schestowitz

just provide network and little power

schestowitz

scientes2: because CLOWN

schestowitz

it's the "smart" thing

schestowitz

it's "new"

scientes2

If you use it more than 3 months you should just buy

scientes2

And if you have ANY bandwidth you should just buy

schestowitz

I work in a company that used to have its own rack and self-hosted

scientes2

It's a complete waste of your engineers time

scientes2

To even open an amazon account

schestowitz

or to learn it

schestowitz

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | AWS is Not GNU/Linux and AWS Certification is a Bezos-Leaning Ploy That Rewards People for Memorising Proprietary Interfaces (Vendor Lock-in) | Techrights

schestowitz

now they have "certs"

schestowitz

for a GUI

scientes2

It is SOOOOOOOO expensive

schestowitz

proprietary

schestowitz

that only one company has and is ALLOWED to have

schestowitz

no amazon, no worth to your "cert"

schestowitz

I don't understand people who study one-vendor 'skills'

schestowitz

like ansible (ibm)

schestowitz

or "cisco"

scientes2

That is because you have a brain

schestowitz

we do all our ipfs and gemini hosting from home

schestowitz

low-voltage machine

schestowitz

ISP is cheap, too

schestowitz

I think about 5 volts

schestowitz

we could run it off a bunch of AAA/AA batteries

scientes2

All computers are like that

schestowitz

and it needs a wireless connection or Ethernet (got port)

scientes2

Only the optical drive needs 12v

schestowitz

scientes2: question is

schestowitz

how many batteries

schestowitz

and for how long

scientes2

If you get A53 chip set quite a long time

scientes2

(in-order CPU)

schestowitz

there is cpu scaling

schestowitz

so you could barely estimate how long they can last, never mind battery vendors

scientes2

Those A53s are very efficient

schestowitz

with sd cards you don't need much additional power

scientes2

Most android use them in 32-bit mode to save RAM

That is out-of-order so much higher power than in-order

Feb 24 00:27

The difference is huge

That's one approach. The other would be to change the behavior of the offending

schestowitz

Now her fault

schestowitz

not even her choice

schestowitz

unless it's a husband's name

vZS1

So the Redmond mafia has a hand in this as well?

schestowitz

and even then, given their age, probably predates Microsodt

schestowitz

vZS1: i think I had the same trouble as you this morning

schestowitz

ipfs had more than 1024 objects

schestowitz

and could not run, I think would also crash (not sure), unless number of open files limit was raised

vZS1

"Too many open files"?

vZS1

Yeah

vZS1

Just bump up the ulimits

schestowitz

vZS1: Newcastle had/has an American strikes called Redmond

schestowitz

vZS1: what did you bump them up to?

schestowitz

I set to 4096 for now

vZS1

I don't remember

vZS1

Oh I think I did much more

schestowitz

they really need to improve how ipfs scales

schestowitz

bw-wise and those other aspects

schestowitz

surely it can be implemented better

schestowitz

like, take chunks of files, one chunk at a time, not the whole lot

vZS1

I fell back to using it only for small files. Stuff like zipped archives. I use BitTorrent for bigger stuff

vZS1

They work best in combination

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Illinois lawmaker seeks ban of Grand Theft Auto game following rise in carjackings | TheHill

DaemonFC[m]

Illinois Democrat who voted to end cash bail for carjackers proposes banning video games with carjackings.

DaemonFC[m]

What's wrong with this picture?

MinceR

lol

Feb 24 15:39

MinceR

once again video games are responsible for what people do

Feb 24 15:39

MinceR

maybe people who don't know shit about the world they live in shouldn't get to dictate how that world should function

Feb 24 15:40

DaemonFC[m]

Well, so much for Gamestop or Valve if this passes. Assuming the US Supreme Court allows it to stand.

Feb 24 15:42

DaemonFC[m]

California passed a very similar law which was struck down under the First Amendment.

Feb 24 15:42

DaemonFC[m]

I rather think that some asshole who represents a district with a lot of troubled young men is projecting blame onto video games for people choosing to commit crimes against people in Chicago.

Feb 24 15:42

MinceR

what does this have to do with gamestop and valve?

Feb 24 15:45

DaemonFC[m]

The Illinois law would affect their profits, assuming that people didn't just lie about where they lived or drive into another state to buy games.

MinceR

https://xkcd.com/2321/

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-xkcd: Low-Background Metal

DaemonFC[m]

So even if the law stood, it would just cost Illinois tax revenue and jobs, and the same number of violent video games would be purchased.

MinceR

afaik valve mostly lives off steam

Feb 24 15:49

DaemonFC[m]

Yes, and all you have to do now to avoid Illinois 6% tax on Steam is say you live in Indiana, which doesn't apply sales tax to digital purchases.

Feb 24 15:49

DaemonFC[m]

So this would just cause people who aren't lying now to say they live in Indiana to buy the game and not pay tax on it.

Feb 24 15:49

DaemonFC[m]

Gamers spend all kinds of money on this stuff, so the state would lose millions in tax revenue at the worst possible time.

Feb 24 15:50

DaemonFC[m]

They legalize marijuana so that people who get high and carjack you can get let loose to do it again while they're on bail for the first one, and then the prosecutor tosses it all out anyway because she's Kim Foxx and that's what the folks in south Chicago voted for her to do.

Feb 24 15:51

DaemonFC[m]

Blame GTA, why not?

Feb 24 15:51

DaemonFC[m]

And it's not going to be cash bail now. It's going to be a promise to appear in court, and then they don't.

Feb 24 15:52

DaemonFC[m]

Then while they're out on their worthless promise to appear over the carjackings, they'll murder 8 people and be back on that and failure to appear and carjacking.

Feb 24 15:52

DaemonFC[m]

Also, raping someone to death and posting it on Facebook.

DaemonFC[m]

Gee, Democrats are brilliant.

DaemonFC[m]

A video game made them do all that...

MinceR

it would be nice to know what video game these politicians are playing, that makes them come up with such stupid shit

DaemonFC[m]

Then since the Democrats got rid of the death sentence and the guy is probably 14 anyway, they'll get a parole hearing every 10 years.

Feb 24 15:54

DaemonFC[m]

And they had a gun because FOID works.

Feb 24 15:54

DaemonFC[m]

"Gee I'm real sorry I turned into a Reaver at 12. Let me out!" Parole Board: "Sure, he shows contrition!" 5 minutes later..... Another murder in Chicago.

It assigns importance of each type of purchase, but it's flawed in numerous ways. In the 1980s you bought a washing machine and paid a lot of money for it and it probably works now if you can still find parts.

Feb 24 16:04

Now you buy a washing machine, it craps out in 3 years, and the parts cost as much as a new washing machine.

Redox OS caught my eye, but Microsoft took over the language it's written in, in their usual predator wasp style.

DaemonFC[m]

I agree in principal that it's time to rethink and move past the legacy UNIX ideas that are no longer relevant to modern computing, but the way it's being done is moving Linux closer and closer to being something more like Windows.

Feb 24 22:40

DaemonFC[m]

It's clear that the inspiration for systemd and Pipewire is coming from Windows 10 and management consoles and group policies and WDDM and Vista audio stack and registry hives.

Feb 24 22:41

DaemonFC[m]

Flat text config files are going the way of the dinosaur in favor of things that can be corrupted and destroy many other settings across the system.

Feb 24 22:42

DaemonFC[m]

The ones that are left warn you to not bother to edit them because they'll be replaced by systemd.

Feb 24 22:42

DaemonFC[m]

This requires the user to learn machinectl and systemctl commands that....change. The other major point of all of this is to sell more "training".

Feb 24 22:43

DaemonFC[m]

It's to cause bugs so they need to keep those subscriptions up, and to sell more training.

Feb 24 22:43
