| IsambardPrince | It's been doing it for almost 30 years. | Feb 25 00:28 |
| IsambardPrince | I think General Motors made my teeth. | Feb 25 00:28 |
| MinceR | :( | Feb 25 00:28 |
| IsambardPrince | You start the car and the engine goes "tick tick tick tick tick tick tick tick" and you lean over "Is that serious?" Mom: "Well, I don't know but it did it when I bought the car in 2003 so probably not." | Feb 25 00:29 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, Things develop quirks. Quirks get worse with age. | Feb 25 00:30 |
| IsambardPrince | Eventually the thing breaks down. | Feb 25 00:30 |
| MinceR | with gasoline direct injection, even brand new engines tend to tick | Feb 25 00:31 |
| IsambardPrince | This isn't a GDI. | Feb 25 00:31 |
| MinceR | and of course, diesel engines have always ticked | Feb 25 00:31 |
| IsambardPrince | The 3800 started out in 1962. | Feb 25 00:31 |
| MinceR | my car has a GDI engine | Feb 25 00:31 |
| IsambardPrince | They just kept improving them until 2010. | Feb 25 00:31 |
| IsambardPrince | The 3800 started out as the Pontiac V6. | Feb 25 00:32 |
| IsambardPrince | It was like a cement mixer under the hood in 1962. | Feb 25 00:32 |
| IsambardPrince | GM just lopped off two cylinders of a V8. | Feb 25 00:32 |

| IsambardPrince | They eventually solved the problem where it shook the car by balancing the engine better. | Feb 25 00:32 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, The 3800 is a gas guzzler by modern standards. | Feb 25 00:33 |
| MinceR | so, what's the 3800's excuse for ticking? | Feb 25 00:33 |
| IsambardPrince | The last significant fuel economy upgrade was in the 80s with fuel injection. | Feb 25 00:33 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, I don't know. Mom has the Gen2 in the Impala. | Feb 25 00:34 |
| IsambardPrince | My Buick has a 3800 Gen3, and specifically with better components. No plastic parts. | Feb 25 00:34 |
| IsambardPrince | Mine doesn't tick. | Feb 25 00:34 |
| IsambardPrince | In fact, it survived owners that didn't change the oil out when they should have and the coolant gelling up and completely obstructing the heater core and half the cooling passages in the engine. | Feb 25 00:35 |
| IsambardPrince | I had to have the intakes taken off so they could drill through the clogs. | Feb 25 00:35 |
| IsambardPrince | Then flush out the system again and refill it with fresh coolant. | Feb 25 00:35 |
| IsambardPrince | And a couple crankcase flushes for old oil residue. | Feb 25 00:36 |
| IsambardPrince | But it still works fine. | Feb 25 00:36 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, American stuff used to be designed so that it could survive way less than ideal operating conditions, for extended periods of time. | Feb 25 00:36 |
| IsambardPrince | :) | Feb 25 00:36 |
| IsambardPrince | Eventually they figured out that their consumers were slobs who didn't appreciate that. | Feb 25 00:37 |
| IsambardPrince | And now quality is roughly on par with Volkswagen. | Feb 25 00:37 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, During the second world war, nobody could compete with the Germans on technical specifications, but tech specs didn't win the war. | Feb 25 00:38 |
| IsambardPrince | It was the ability to mass produce things that were reliable and easy to repair, and cheaper to lose. | Feb 25 00:38 |
| IsambardPrince | Germany would have been smarter to focus on capturing Soviet tank production and keeping the plants running putting out heavy equipment that they were already building. | Feb 25 00:39 |
| IsambardPrince | The German stuff was interesting, in that you saw cases where one German tank could destroy almost 20 Soviet tanks in a single battle, but the Soviets could absorb losses like this. | Feb 25 00:40 |
| IsambardPrince | The Germans put too many resources building less stuff. | Feb 25 00:40 |
| IsambardPrince | And when it broke down in the field, there was basically no fixing it. | Feb 25 00:40 |
| IsambardPrince | You didn't have the tools, or the knowledge, or anything, so if you could just cripple it there was little hope of a field repair. | Feb 25 00:41 |
| IsambardPrince | The Germans built the tanks with a lot of armor. | Feb 25 00:41 |
| IsambardPrince | That cost them in fuel mileage. | Feb 25 00:41 |
| IsambardPrince | I think it was something like 1 gallon of fuel to get the tank about 1 mile. | Feb 25 00:42 |
| IsambardPrince | Where some of the American ones were getting several times that. | Feb 25 00:42 |
| IsambardPrince | So you had the problem of supplying the tanks with fuel, thus limiting range and where you could field them in the first place. | Feb 25 00:42 |
| IsambardPrince | Engineering is like this. To massively improve one thing, you have to accept sacrifices elsewhere. | Feb 25 00:43 |
| IsambardPrince | If you make the wrong choices, you could end up with things that are of very little practical use. | Feb 25 00:43 |
| IsambardPrince | <@MinceR> so, what's the 3800's excuse for ticking? | Feb 25 00:43 |
| IsambardPrince | I think in her car's case there's probably an exhaust manifold leak that's been going on since they made it. | Feb 25 00:44 |
| IsambardPrince | They probably had an imperfect seal at the factory so it's just been doing it ever since. | Feb 25 00:44 |
| IsambardPrince | Not enough to trigger the MIL but enough to be noticeable. | Feb 25 00:44 |
| IsambardPrince | They didn't exactly build those engines to the highest standards of manufacturing. | Feb 25 00:45 |
| IsambardPrince | However, with all the cheap plastic, I could throw the failed engine parts in the dumpster at the hotel. | Feb 25 00:45 |
| IsambardPrince | And put new manifolds and valve covers and stuff on. | Feb 25 00:46 |
| IsambardPrince | :) | Feb 25 00:46 |

| IsambardPrince | "WASHINGTON — Responses to the Elon Musk-directed email to government employees about what work they had accomplished in the last week are expected to be fed into an artificial intelligence system to determine whether those jobs are necessary, according to three sources with knowledge of the system." | Feb 25 01:00 |
| MinceR | or is that Pre-Soap/Pre-Lampshade Entity Services? | Feb 25 01:00 |
| IsambardPrince | "OPM informed agencies that employee responses to the email are voluntary. OPM also clarified that despite what Musk had posted, not responding to the email does not equate to a resignation, the email said." | Feb 25 01:00 |
| IsambardPrince | So Musk lied about the failure to respond being a "resignation". | Feb 25 01:01 |

| IsambardPrince | MinceR, Someone on Reddit was trying to rationalize replacing a 2010 Civic with an EV. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | I wrote: "Electric cars are the biggest scam ever and you'll quickly find that all of the things you never had to deal with using an internal combustion engine add up and cost you more than the damned gas ever did. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | We knew how to make cars that ran solely on gasoline and got 60 miles a gallon on the highway in the early 90s. They were called a Geo Metro. Some people I knew of who bought them did not even buy hubcaps because those were not standard and cost another $500. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | They weren't really fun to drive, but they were cheap and they sipped gas. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | Some people still use them. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | Today you can get an ICE car that gets 30-35 mpg on the highway and is actually quite powerful. They're basically all better than what you could get 20 years ago. I don't know why anyone would complain. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | When you buy an electric car and drive it when it's cold, you also quickly find out how fast that runs the battery down. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | They lose their value faster than normal cars, so you need to factor in the added depreciation. They do this because there's no correct way to swap a battery pack that does not involve a brand new one, which costs anywhere between $7,000 and $14,000. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | They're not practical. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | They're not the EV1, but battery technology is going to have to improve for at least 10-20 more years before this makes sense, and the federal government is definitely going to cut off EV charger subsidies so, like, I live in a county with a million people. There's two places I could charge an EV. A hospital and a casino. There's a gas station on every corner. | Feb 25 01:40 |
| IsambardPrince | It takes so long to charge an EV you could be stuck there for hours. | Feb 25 01:41 |
| IsambardPrince | It's also not necessarily climate friendly. Building an EV causes more emissions than building a standard car, and when you plug it in, it runs off whatever the power plants do, which is still largely fossil fuel. | Feb 25 01:41 |
| IsambardPrince | You don't save the planet by turning part of it into another car, and these things are a fiscal nightmare. | Feb 25 01:41 |
| IsambardPrince | If what you drive now is still reliable and doesn't have a car payment, you're signing up to put yourself on a torture rack and in a financial sense, what you propose is not ever going to make sense. | Feb 25 01:41 |
| IsambardPrince | If you put a car payment into a growth mutual fund and you get the average return on the S&P 500, in 40 years you'll have $10 million, or you can have car payments. | Feb 25 01:41 |
| IsambardPrince | I hope you like the car. Also, cars depreciate like mad. Some are worse than others, but if you buy a new car and finance it at typical bank interest, you take $52,000 and turn it into $18,000 over 5 years. If you like those figures, give me $52,000 and in 5 years I'll give you $18,000 from it and keep the rest." | Feb 25 01:41 |
| IsambardPrince | Added: Hertz made a huge mistake buying Teslas and found out they didn't account for the additional 20% loss in value, and had to dispose of an entire fleet for pennies on the dollar. | Feb 25 01:43 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, About 20 years ago I was living with an ex and he needed to go to the dentist. | Feb 25 01:50 |
| IsambardPrince | So my grandmother was nice (amazing) and gave him a ride there. | Feb 25 01:50 |
| IsambardPrince | She kept hitting the parking post in the Cadillac and going "tee hee" and backing up and hitting it again. | Feb 25 01:51 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | the headline is vague | Feb 25 04:52 |
| IsambardPrince | Indiana Republicans passed a law that allows payday lenders to loan up to $5,000 at up to 150% interest. | Feb 25 04:52 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | the us is self-destructing | Feb 25 04:52 |
| IsambardPrince | Previously, 72% was defined as felony loan sharking. | Feb 25 04:53 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | they are bad people, many a re bad | Feb 25 04:53 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | but they dooo not hate their country | Feb 25 04:53 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Previously, the highest legal rate for a payday loan in Indiana was 71%, and you could not loan more than $500. | Feb 25 04:53 |
| IsambardPrince | Now it's $5,000 at 150%. | Feb 25 04:53 |
| IsambardPrince | Can you believe this? | Feb 25 04:53 |
| IsambardPrince | This is mafia rates. | Feb 25 04:54 |
| IsambardPrince | The fucking mafia didn't charge this much. | Feb 25 04:54 |
| IsambardPrince | "We're trying to fill the gap to create a glide path towards bankability," said Burdick, who represents the parent company of Advance America, which has more than 30 payday loan stores in Indiana. | Feb 25 04:54 |
| IsambardPrince | Without another option, people turn to unregulated online lenders that charge even higher interest rates or they "borrow in the parking lot from the guy that breaks your kneecap," he said. | Feb 25 04:54 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Techrights — The Brigading (in Social Control Media) Did Not Silence the Creator of GNU/Linux | Feb 25 04:55 | |
| IsambardPrince | These people create a glide path towards bankruptcy. | Feb 25 04:55 |
| IsambardPrince | That's all they create. | Feb 25 04:55 |
| IsambardPrince | And they hold on to a check they know is bad and put you in prison if the money isn't there on Thursday. | Feb 25 04:55 |
| IsambardPrince | The only way to stay out of prison is to file bankruptcy and remove the underlying debt before they can successfully prosecute this as a crime against the check cashing store. | Feb 25 04:55 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], ^ | Feb 25 04:56 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | i don't know | Feb 25 04:58 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Here's why that works. | Feb 25 04:58 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | ok... go ahead | Feb 25 04:58 |
| IsambardPrince | You give the check cashing people a check for $5,000. | Feb 25 04:58 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | the industry os payday loans looks spooky | Feb 25 04:58 |
| IsambardPrince | They charge you 150% interest for two weeks. | Feb 25 04:58 |
| nobody | IsambardPrince: this 70% rate isn't that much if you got $500 with an annual compound interest of 5% for 10years without repay, that reaches $800 debt in 10years | Feb 25 04:58 |
| IsambardPrince | You can't pay so they roll it over. | Feb 25 04:59 |
| IsambardPrince | Eventually it grows to the point you can't pay. They present the checks you wrote to them that are post-dated to the prosecutor. | Feb 25 04:59 |
| IsambardPrince | They come at you for felony check fraud and threaten to put you in prison. | Feb 25 04:59 |
| IsambardPrince | If you file bankruptcy and discharge the debt successfully, there is no underlying debt, so it will shut down the criminal prosecution. | Feb 25 04:59 |
| IsambardPrince | So by this point you're bankrupt but at least you're not in prison for passing bad checks. | Feb 25 05:00 |
| IsambardPrince | They have immense leverage. | Feb 25 05:00 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | that's what happens | Feb 25 05:00 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | i once bailed out someone | Feb 25 05:00 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | i will never do that again | Feb 25 05:00 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | took her many eyars to pay back | Feb 25 05:00 |
| IsambardPrince | Yes, Dad had to rescue mom at least a dozen times for this. | Feb 25 05:00 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and lots of prodding | Feb 25 05:00 |
| IsambardPrince | But the limit was $500 at 71% back then. | Feb 25 05:00 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | lessons learned; will never do that again | Feb 25 05:01 |
| nobody | 70% interest is illegal | Feb 25 05:01 |
| IsambardPrince | 150% interest is now the limit in Indiana. | Feb 25 05:01 |
| IsambardPrince | It was 71%. | Feb 25 05:01 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | only if they enforce the law :_)) | Feb 25 05:01 |
| IsambardPrince | 72% was felony loan sharking. | Feb 25 05:01 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Project 2025 is weird. | Feb 25 05:03 |

| IsambardPrince | In Illinois, loan sharking is still a crime. | Feb 25 05:03 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], No, that's not all. | Feb 25 05:03 |

| IsambardPrince | "The president also downplayed the agencies—like the FBI and Office of the Director of National Intelligence—directing their employees not to respond, claiming those emails are being sent “in a friendly manner” in agencies where employees deal with particularly sensitive information, and telling reporters that officials who tell their workers to ignore the letter “don’t mean that in any way combatively with Elon.” | Feb 25 06:26 |

| MinceR | it's distorted here as well | Feb 25 16:17 |
| MinceR | with Fira Mono | Feb 25 16:17 |
| MinceR | but it seems to me that there are plenty of characters in unicode (mostly emoji) that are hell to manage on a text terminal | Feb 25 16:17 |
| MinceR | there's no notion of how wide some of the characters will end up being when printed | Feb 25 16:18 |
| MinceR | also, i can't tell if all the characters used in that logo were meant to represent block drawing characters | Feb 25 16:18 |
| IndyJoenz | schestowitz[TR2]: I think it is more likely a character encoding issue in the OS or ncurses or something, than the font itself. I'm just wondering what the charcters are. | Feb 25 16:22 |
| IndyJoenz | I also experience that there are characters that have trouble in older versions of things like ncurses, tmux, screen, etc etc, regardless of font | Feb 25 16:22 |

| IndyJoenz | macOS in particular is bad about this issue natively. I can SSH into Fedora and use tons of unicode characters fine, where some of them don't work right locally on the Mac (same font/terminal) | Feb 25 16:24 |
| IndyJoenz | newer Unicode characters | Feb 25 16:24 |
| IndyJoenz | I think it is because macOS ships with a literally 20 year old build of ncurses. | Feb 25 16:25 |

| Sompi | "Microsoft also unveiled the concept of a "universal Windows app", allowing Windows Store apps created for Windows 8.1 to be ported to Windows Phone 8.1 and Xbox One while sharing a common codebase, with an interface designed for different device form factors, and allowing user data and licenses for an app to be shared between multiple platforms. Windows Phone 8.1 would share nearly 90% of the common | Feb 25 22:58 |
| Sompi | Windows Runtime APIs with Windows 8.1 on PCs.[45][47][48][49]" | Feb 25 22:58 |
| Sompi | Feb 25 22:58 | |
| Sompi | If I remember correctly, that never happened? | Feb 25 22:58 |
| psydruid | not paying for Microsoft Office is now being framed as disrespecting Microsoft employees | Feb 25 22:58 |
| Sompi | Windows Phone had its completely own API from the start | Feb 25 22:58 |
| Sompi | Or I am wrong? | Feb 25 22:59 |
| Sompi | am I*? | Feb 25 22:59 |
| psydruid | are these people for real? | Feb 25 22:59 |
| psydruid | no idea | Feb 25 22:59 |
| psydruid | never used it | Feb 25 22:59 |
| Sompi | I don't remember any x86 Windows programs that also worked on Windows Phone | Feb 25 22:59 |
| Sompi | And I assumed that Windows Phone has its completely own API, despite the promises | Feb 25 23:00 |
| psydruid | I've only ever seen one Windows phone in my life, the one my colleague had | Feb 25 23:00 |
| psydruid | I think something else was going on, they wanted to push the store, so only a limited number of "modern" APIs were available | Feb 25 23:01 |
| MinceR | afaik this Universal Bullshit was tacked on after the fact, and not a lot of people seemed to care | Feb 25 23:02 |
| psydruid | but I have no idea about modern Windows native application development | Feb 25 23:02 |
| MinceR | which is a good thing, as it was a walled garden, with some APIs being restricted to these apps | Feb 25 23:02 |
| MinceR | well, considering how much MICROS~1 cultists love the botNET framework, "modern" windows application development isn't very native :> | Feb 25 23:03 |
| Sompi | Those broken promises were probably one of the main things that killed Nokia | Feb 25 23:03 |
| psydruid | :D | Feb 25 23:03 |
| psydruid | Nokia was killed the day it was acquired | Feb 25 23:04 |
| Sompi | When Windows Phones were just a concept and no-one knew yet what kind of operating system Windows Phone is going to be, everyone assumed that it is going to be API-compatible with desktop Windows, and probably have the exact same kernel than ARM versions of Windows | Feb 25 23:04 |
| MinceR | nokia was killed before then | Feb 25 23:04 |
| MinceR | it was killed when the oxygen thieves on the board of directors decided it would be a good idea to hire stephen elop as CEO | Feb 25 23:04 |
| psydruid | Stephen Eloped with all of its important assets | Feb 25 23:05 |
| Sompi | And it would have been natural for Microsoft, because they had already been maintaining several different operating systems with different kernels that are binary-compatible with each other. Windows 9x, Windows NT and 64-bit Windows NT | Feb 25 23:05 |

| Sompi | Xenix can also run DOS programs | Feb 25 23:05 |
| psydruid | Windows CE was the thing that came before Windows Mobile and various releases of Windows Phone | Feb 25 23:06 |
| psydruid | and they never got it right | Feb 25 23:06 |
| Sompi | Can Windows CE run desktop Windows applications? | Feb 25 23:06 |
| psydruid | no | Feb 25 23:07 |
| psydruid | well, no idea | Feb 25 23:07 |
| psydruid | but I have some PDA from that era and it was very limited | Feb 25 23:07 |
| psydruid | you were even supposed to use it with a stylus | Feb 25 23:07 |
| MinceR | no, it runs binaries for the ISA it's running on | Feb 25 23:07 |
| Sompi | I remember when 32-bit Windows applications worked on everything from Windows 95 to Windows XP. Even on Windows 3.1x if you had the correct API extensions installed | Feb 25 23:08 |
| MinceR | and at the time desktop Backdoors didn't run on ARM | Feb 25 23:08 |

| MinceR | or MIPS | Feb 25 23:08 |
| MinceR | "work" is a relative term | Feb 25 23:08 |
| Sompi | And I assumed that the non-x86 versions of Windows at least had the same API. What's the point of calling it "Windows" if it is so different that the same programs cannot be compiled to them | Feb 25 23:08 |
| psydruid | but could applications be written that used a subset of Windows APIs, so that they could be compiled for both? | Feb 25 23:09 |
| MinceR | what's the point of anything MICROS~1 does? | Feb 25 23:09 |
| Sompi | psydruid: That's exactly what I am asking | Feb 25 23:09 |
| nobody | last time i checked any micros~1 product was their .Net3.x/4.x, when the latter 4.x version could not be installed onto windowsXP although that had not reached EOL at that time | Feb 25 23:11 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-stackoverflow.com | Porting a Windows-CE application to Windows Desktop - Stack Overflow | Feb 25 23:11 | |
| psydruid | I was using GNU/Linux at the time and never looked back at Windows | Feb 25 23:11 |
| nobody | in parallel the Mono framework appeared, but didn't fully implement .net libraries, such as their dataset persistence and other things | Feb 25 23:12 |
| psydruid | Now my only exposure to anything Windows-related is via ReactOS, because we all know what happened to actual Windows | Feb 25 23:12 |
| nobody | the only relevant heritage of micros~1 is their DOS, nowadays maintained as FreeDOS | Feb 25 23:12 |
| nobody | and the DOS era proprietary malice got blobbed already, with BIOS firmware | Feb 25 23:13 |
| nobody | which must have been clusterfucked that badly, even micros~1 and intel(R) decided to abandon this | Feb 25 23:14 |
| MinceR | afaik freedos is not derived from ms-dos | Feb 25 23:14 |
| MinceR | the redmond mafia didn't even pretend to be friendly with free software when it started | Feb 25 23:15 |
| nobody | good question; it advertizes MS-DOS compatibility however | Feb 25 23:15 |
| nobody | alot of the DOS stuff was written in assembly | Feb 25 23:15 |
| nobody | which slightly blurred the demarcation line of what's source-code | Feb 25 23:16 |
| nobody | nowadays it's just impossible, to run a dis-assembler for full disclosure | Feb 25 23:17 |
| nobody | in any case, the 16bit real-mode stuff is highly relevant still, because it's needed for a complete "bootstrapping" chain | Feb 25 23:17 |
| nobody | even when, software is free and open source, this doesn't imply a complete bootstrapping chain existed | Feb 25 23:18 |
| nobody | DOS (CP/M) predate Unix btw. | Feb 25 23:18 |
| nobody | in any case, the 16bit stuff got wrecked, at most micros~1, ibm, intel would bother with emulating it nowadays | Feb 25 23:19 |
| MinceR | application developers had to amass a lot of information on ms-dos compatibility | Feb 25 23:20 |
| MinceR | because the redmond mafia always loved to provide itself with advantages via hidden APIs | Feb 25 23:20 |
| MinceR | and because they always sucked at software development | Feb 25 23:20 |
| MinceR | "DOS ain't done 'till Lotus won't run" | Feb 25 23:20 |
| nobody | i think micros~1 staff themselves just thought one... fuck this, we don't care | Feb 25 23:21 |
| nobody | day | Feb 25 23:21 |
| MinceR | yeah, they never cared | Feb 25 23:21 |
| nobody | i am not sure about this | Feb 25 23:21 |
| nobody | few days ago, i was giving reproducible bootstrapping a POSIX 32bit from a 16bit DOS some thought | Feb 25 23:25 |
| nobody | neither FreeDOS nor the transition towards 32bit POSIX with it are maintained | Feb 25 23:25 |
| nobody | i mean, FreeDOS itself hasn't got a clean bootstrapping path | Feb 25 23:25 |
| nobody | nor MS-DOS | Feb 25 23:26 |
| nobody | funnily, i practice, you could NOT "bootstrap" any of the other praised ISAs _without_ a X86 development host | Feb 25 23:27 |
| nobody | but x86 itself is wrecked already, and GNU-toochain and/or llvm/clang developers brag about their 100stage cross-crosscompilation | Feb 25 23:28 |
| nobody | bootstrappable pragmatically circuumvented related issues, but couldn't avoid some circular dependencies still | Feb 25 23:29 |
| nobody | at least, you wouldn't need a x86 DOS development host | Feb 25 23:29 |
| nobody | *in practice | Feb 25 23:30 |
| nobody | in a way, it's GNU developers who saved micros~1 intel ibm's ass, with their bootstrappable.org project | Feb 25 23:31 |
| nobody | but most modern laptops with their UEFI couldn't boot 16bit real-mode | Feb 25 23:31 |
| nobody | it's insane | Feb 25 23:31 |
| nobody | but there's enough old computers remaining on ebay for another millenia | Feb 25 23:32 |
| nobody | but these couldn't be rebuilt from scratch with schematics and source code | Feb 25 23:33 |
| nobody | you could rebuild some z80/mos6502/whatever, but for those i am not aware of any complete bootstrapping chain for any 16bit DOS | Feb 25 23:34 |
| nobody | for those; there is some free/open DOS type systems, but these haven't got a complete bootstrapping chain | Feb 25 23:34 |
| nobody | neither hardware nor software | Feb 25 23:34 |
| nobody | i am merely trying to fill the gap that unmaintained linux2 ABI and alternative toolchain support missed, 32bit posix, which by coincidence got some practical use | Feb 25 23:36 |

| IsambardPrince | Microsoft had a nasty habit of creating APIs that were close but no cigar. | Feb 25 23:57 |
| IsambardPrince | So porting wasn't necessarily straightforward. | Feb 25 23:57 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, I noticed Dave Ramsey say in The Total Money Makeover that he puts his savings in money market mutual funds even though there's no deposit insurance because he's not aware of any that ever failed. | Feb 25 23:59 |
| IsambardPrince | Then in 2008, several did fail and in 2020 some lost 15% of their value. | Feb 25 23:59 |
