activelow | Coda distributed filesystem contains c++, and various other clutter... didn't pass | May 26 00:14 |
---|---|---|
activelow | then, encountered many Kernel-internal API changes which prevent easy forward-porting of shfs and e2comp, which is sad to say the least | May 26 00:15 |
activelow | e2comp and shfs (not sshfs, shfs was the kernel-2.4/2.6 variant) were my preferred choice over any other option | May 26 00:16 |
activelow | fuse doesn't convince me, the userspace parts in particular (gnomeified glib in fuse for example), in comparison the userspace part fusemount of shfs was simple and sane | May 26 00:17 |
activelow | linux kernel internally changed the APIs for .read .write filesystem operations, with some iterator callbacks, which i wouldn't know what this is useful for, in essence this is what's breaking the patches | May 26 00:18 |
activelow | of cause, it is possible to re-implement it... yet _testing_ and debugging of kernel changes is time-consuming | May 26 00:19 |
activelow | the decision i made to today: trop overlayfs from kernel, drop ext4(!) support from kernel, drop wireguard support from kernel, and keep ext2 filesystem for compatibility/portability reasons | May 26 00:19 |
activelow | it isn't as if i wouldn't question my own reasoning with it, particularly concerning filesystem choice of ext2 | May 26 00:22 |
activelow | furthermore, i noticed reducing internal kernel dependencies by component removal such as crypto/wireguard/... did NOT reduce kernel image size significantly | May 26 00:27 |
activelow | which makes me wonder, what those ~10MiB are (with all modules statically included) | May 26 00:28 |
DaemonFC | And I'm doing toilet paper math again. | May 26 00:28 |
DaemonFC | All of the sizes and prices have changed. | May 26 00:28 |
activelow | by todays, standards 10MiB kernel size are not much, nonetheless, it is 4x the size of a kernel 2.4/2.6... so what happened to linux kernel which blew up kernel image size? | May 26 00:29 |
DaemonFC | Drivers, mostly. | May 26 00:29 |
DaemonFC | The addition of more file systems. | May 26 00:29 |
DaemonFC | More CPU architectures supported. | May 26 00:30 |
activelow | can't be, i removed almost everything possible, filesystems it is only ext2 remaining | May 26 00:30 |
activelow | no, kernel image is compiled for exactly one architecture | May 26 00:30 |
DaemonFC | Why would you use the ext2 driver? | May 26 00:30 |
DaemonFC | It's orphaned. | May 26 00:30 |
activelow | meaning the final binary image size should have not increased by x4 in comparison to version 2.4/2.6 | May 26 00:30 |
DaemonFC | It's going to be dropped eventually. It gets enough fixes to keep it working, for now. | May 26 00:30 |
DaemonFC | Fedora already dropped Ext2 and Ext3 drivers from the kernel. | May 26 00:31 |
activelow | DaemonFC: ext2 for stability/portability/compatibility reasons | May 26 00:31 |
DaemonFC | The Ext4 driver can handle Ext2 and Ext3 even without changing the on disk format. | May 26 00:31 |
DaemonFC | And it has an improved block allocator. | May 26 00:31 |
activelow | and i hoped for e2compr patchset could apply.... yet internal kernal APIs for filesystem operations changed | May 26 00:31 |
activelow | yes, but ext4 depends on more stuff inside kernel, and i do not trust ext4, too many changes | May 26 00:32 |
DaemonFC | The old block allocator in the Ext2 and Ext3 drivers should not be used. | May 26 00:32 |
DaemonFC | Especially on older computers. | May 26 00:32 |
activelow | and most important: ext2 got e2compr patchset, ext4 with a shi**load of features hasn't got... | May 26 00:32 |
DaemonFC | They slow down disk access and spam the CPU with hundreds of thousands of block allocation requests and they increase disk fragmentation. | May 26 00:33 |
activelow | sadly, linux kernel developers managed to brick e2compr patchset, i wouldn't blame e2compr, i blame linux kernel | May 26 00:33 |
activelow | DaemonFC: i am planning to mount ext2 synchronous, -o sync... which is even slower | May 26 00:33 |
activelow | didn't test this yet, changes are i will do it if it is fast enough | May 26 00:33 |
activelow | chances | May 26 00:33 |
DaemonFC | The multiblock allocator in the Ext4 driver all by itself is reason enough to prune the obsolete Ext2 and Ext3 drivers from the kernel. | May 26 00:34 |
DaemonFC | Many people will mistakenly use the older drivers and the performance of the entire computer will suffer because of them. | May 26 00:34 |
activelow | anyway, linux kernel bricked version2.4/2.6 patches: e2compr, shfs, linux kernel blew up in binary image size quadrupled round about... with nothing of interest for me added to it since then | May 26 00:34 |
XRevan86 | Stable API nonsense? Nay! Stable patchset appliance nonsense. | May 26 00:34 |
DaemonFC | The Ext4 driver is sufficiently stable. | May 26 00:35 |
activelow | XRevan86: ext4 hasn't got compression support does it? | May 26 00:35 |
DaemonFC | The code that handles the older file systems is mostly the code from the older file systems. | May 26 00:35 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC: Every codebase has an obligation to never change :) | May 26 00:35 |
DaemonFC | So there's almost no chance of a regression, only benefit. | May 26 00:35 |
activelow | this is, how awesome linux kernel is nowadays, excessively huge kernel image size, witch features lost which were available long before | May 26 00:35 |
activelow | *with | May 26 00:35 |
activelow | FUSE... maybe the kernel-parts are acceptable, the userspace part of fuse aren't | May 26 00:36 |
DaemonFC | The best way to get the fs driver footprint down right now, today, is to delete Ext2, Ext3, and ReiserFS. | May 26 00:36 |
XRevan86 | by available activelow means not available | May 26 00:36 |
activelow | xfs... what a joke when scrolling the changelog (and some bug reports) of a supposedly stable filesystem such as XFS | May 26 00:36 |
DaemonFC | The BtrFS driver is in much better shape in recent kernels than it was even 6-12 months ago. | May 26 00:37 |
XRevan86 | activelow: bcachefs has compression. | May 26 00:37 |
activelow | JFS, from IBM, slightly better... nonetheless... no compression support, only JFS1 for AIX | May 26 00:37 |
DaemonFC | I've changed this laptop to use BtrFS on the SSD. | May 26 00:37 |
XRevan86 | So does btrfs of course. | May 26 00:37 |
DaemonFC | Although I still do use Ext4 on my external hard disk, which is due to various reasons. | May 26 00:37 |
XRevan86 | activelow: Switch to the only true stable FS: reiser3. | May 26 00:38 |
XRevan86 | It's so stable it's orphaned. | May 26 00:38 |
DaemonFC | I used Ext4 on it as soon as I bought it, getting rid of NTFS. There are many files on it now. Restoring all of them after wiping the file system would take over a day. | May 26 00:38 |
XRevan86 | No developments there, just ancient bugs left untouched for eons. | May 26 00:38 |
DaemonFC | The Ext4 driver is extremely well tested now and unlikely to eat my data, even in a nasty corner case. We don't know about BtrFS. Why trust backups to it? | May 26 00:38 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC: Ext4 is not sufficiently dead, it's not worthy of consideration. | May 26 00:39 |
DaemonFC | The BtrFS compression is good for my SSD because there's less write amplification and it saves space. It's a much smaller amount of space, therefore the compression is more useful. | May 26 00:39 |
DaemonFC | Some Linux advice websites claim you should just use NTFS now that there's kernel support. This is wrong. | May 26 00:40 |
DaemonFC | While it may be Windows and Mac compatible, the driver that made it into the kernel is in terrible shape and the alleged maintainer hasn't responded to his email in months, and by bypassing the normal inclusion process, the kernel maintainers stuck Linux with this piece of shit when it should have gone into staging where they could get rid of it again because it wasn't guaranteed to even be built in the main kernel tree. | May 26 00:41 |
DaemonFC | And that's before we even begin to get into "Microsoft designed it. Why would you want important data on it? Even their official chkdsk corrupts it, ON WINDOWS. Almost three decades later.". | May 26 00:42 |
DaemonFC | Or the patents. | May 26 00:42 |
DaemonFC | While the core of NTFS is almost 30 years old, they keep tacking more garbage onto it and getting more patents. | May 26 00:43 |
DaemonFC | So it's not legally safe to use. | May 26 00:43 |
DaemonFC | Most of the "features" of NTFS that have been added in later years are counterproductive or even mostly useful if you're writing malware. | May 26 00:43 |
XRevan86 | Mockery aside, expecting a patchset for Linux 2.0 to apply today is, without exaggeration, madness. | May 26 00:43 |
DaemonFC | But without them, then sharing the volume with Windows is even sketchier. | May 26 00:43 |
DaemonFC | <XRevan86> Mockery aside, expecting a patchset for Linux 2.0 to apply today is, without exaggeration, madness. | May 26 00:44 |
DaemonFC | They're hardly even the same kernel. | May 26 00:44 |
activelow | DaemonFC: it isn't only ext4, it is APIs against which ext4 is developed... and some bugs were known... | May 26 00:44 |
DaemonFC | You'd be hard pressed to find a significant part of a Linux 2.0 or 2.4 tree that hasn't been significantly modified or entirely rewritten or dropped since then. | May 26 00:45 |
XRevan86 | Oh, actually, there's an update for Linux 3.4 | May 26 00:45 |
activelow | i don't doubt it, it is tested, yet, ext4 hasn't got the features i wanted | May 26 00:45 |
XRevan86 | But my point stands. | May 26 00:45 |
DaemonFC | The Linux development was more haphazard back then. | May 26 00:45 |
DaemonFC | I actually stayed on the Linux 2.4.x tree for some time because XFS was added to it by Marcello Tossati when Linus handed the 2.4 branch over to him. | May 26 00:46 |
DaemonFC | So for a little while, it had a feature that the 2.6 branch didn't, which I wanted to use. | May 26 00:46 |
XRevan86 | To think that the developers have to consider patchset appliance in their work on code is also madness. | May 26 00:46 |
activelow | checking bcachefs... depends, what it wants, inside kernel... i do not accept the internal kernel crypto-api (not a final decision yet, although i do not want the in-kernel crypto api, compression should not need it) | May 26 00:46 |
DaemonFC | Ideally, hardware vendors would just refuse to build anything that didn't have Fully Free drivers. | May 26 00:47 |
DaemonFC | Then they could upgrade the kernel freely and not worry about it too much in their new firmwares. | May 26 00:47 |
DaemonFC | And this LTS branch thing wouldn't be necessary. | May 26 00:47 |
activelow | XRevan86: if internal kernal API stability was nonsense, then this is your _opinion_; fact is internal kernel APIs changed, and features are gone | May 26 00:47 |
techrights-news | "The capsule has moved from SDF to tilde.team, this has allowed me more freedom to upload pictures and host particularly long text files. Yay~" gemini://tilde.team/~smokey/logs/2022-05-25-new-things.gmi | May 26 00:47 |
DaemonFC | The entire reason for the LTS kernel branches is proprietary hardware drivers, mainly in Android phones. | May 26 00:48 |
activelow | furthermore, i suspect, couldn't test because breakage, shfs was the better choice in comparison to FUSE | May 26 00:48 |
DaemonFC | Android sucks, honestly. | May 26 00:48 |
techrights-news | Gemini input, and improving client support gemini://gemini.thegonz.net/glog/220525-geminiInputClientSupport.gmi "I have a couple of things to say in Gemini's defence here, and a client UI suggestion." | May 26 00:48 |
activelow | the prominent kernel-4.4 LTS, had my share of fun with it, because of some rockchip-related stuff... stability is something else than what kernel 4.4 was | May 26 00:49 |
activelow | anyway, some other patch not easily applied: fbui in kernel framebuffer window management... | May 26 00:49 |
XRevan86 | activelow: Even kernel *modules* need work to continue working. | May 26 00:50 |
activelow | yaft userspace is realtively slow... just saying | May 26 00:50 |
XRevan86 | activelow: .patch is simply doomed. | May 26 00:50 |
activelow | .patch is a distribution method... agnostic towards kernel internal api changes | May 26 00:50 |
XRevan86 | Right, it can break from *any* change. | May 26 00:51 |
activelow | if APIs change... a merge or patch-apply do not differ that much, given the scale of "improvements" and changes | May 26 00:51 |
activelow | anyway, what is the explanation for kernel binary image size quadrupling since kernel-2.4/2.6, with a comparable feature-set and module select? | May 26 00:52 |
activelow | 3MiB uncompression against 12MiB uncompressed... why is that? i do NOT know. | May 26 00:52 |
activelow | what are those f*cK**ng 8MiB of binary gibberish added to linux kernel binary image? | May 26 00:52 |
XRevan86 | Remove all the new hardware support, should trim it down. | May 26 00:53 |
activelow | already did that | May 26 00:53 |
XRevan86 | Doubtful. | May 26 00:53 |
activelow | IPv6 removed, crypto api removed ... i mean, that's even less than kernel-2.6 | May 26 00:53 |
activelow | all virtualization removed, cgroups/namespace etc... i only keep network device drivers for the ethernet i got here | May 26 00:54 |
activelow | there isn't anything remaining to remove | May 26 00:54 |
psydruid | And it's still too big | May 26 00:55 |
psydruid | Maybe it's time to remove Linux | May 26 00:55 |
activelow | not too big in absolute numbers, relative to kernel 2.4/2.6 ... what are those additional 8MiB which quadruple kernel image size? | May 26 00:55 |
XRevan86 | There's OpenBSD. | May 26 00:55 |
XRevan86 | or NetBSD | May 26 00:56 |
XRevan86 | Probably no FS compression though. | May 26 00:56 |
activelow | with *BSD i do not accept the llvm/clang compiler choice of theirs, don't know which gcc version, i do not accept any later than gcc-4.7 | May 26 00:56 |
activelow | and with linux-5.10, i fear, this will be the last version i was willing to accept, because of their compiler version bump requirement to gcc-5.x (since linux 5.14 iirc) | May 26 00:57 |
activelow | and, no support for tinycc | May 26 00:58 |

DaemonFC | They claim they don't run their filters through the NSF/ANSI testing because it would cost them $10,000 to test. However, their filter enclosure/water reservoir costs $387 for the 2.5 gallon Berkey and the filters cost $136.75 each in packs of 4. | May 26 01:40 |
DaemonFC | And if you want it to remove fluoride, you have to buy another filter, and screw it onto the filter, and the add-on filters are sold out right now, but normally run $39.50 each. | May 26 01:41 |
DaemonFC | So these aren't a cheap system and they could afford to run the tests if they wanted to. | May 26 01:41 |
DaemonFC | Furthermore, they lose a lot of sales because it's illegal for them to sell into the California and Iowa markets without those certifications, so not paying for them costs them a lot of lost sales. | May 26 01:41 |
DaemonFC | California has 39.5 million residents and Iowa has 3.1 million. | May 26 01:42 |
DaemonFC | Amusingly, they say their products are legal in 49 states, so it's unclear whether California or Iowa isn't a state. | May 26 01:42 |
DaemonFC | Three major lab tests of the Big Berkey were inconsistent, which might mean there's issues with quality control of the filters, and while they all agreed the Berkey was good at removing lead, they also agreed it only removed about 13% of chloroform. | May 26 01:44 |
DaemonFC | The Berkey's manufacturer stated that it removes so much chloroform, it's impossible to detect what's left in a laboratory. | May 26 01:44 |
DaemonFC | The Berkey website also appeals to nuts by promoting debunked anti-fluoride myths. | May 26 01:45 |
DaemonFC | In fact, when Juneau, Alaska stopped fluoridating, they were one of the study subjects to see what would happen to children without fluoridated water. Dental cavities shot up 22% in the 2012 group of children vs the 2003 group. | May 26 01:46 |
DaemonFC | And costs to treat the cavities themselves increased over 70% after adjusting for inflation. | May 26 01:46 |
DaemonFC | The dentists are really busy fixing cavities that would have been prevented entirely or partially by the fluoridation the town chose to stop, so prices go up and it takes longer to get into the dentist. | May 26 01:48 |
DaemonFC | They voted for a public health disaster. | May 26 01:48 |
DaemonFC | In 2022, with no dental insurance, it can cost up to $650 to get one tooth filled at the average dentist in Illinois, where I live. | May 26 01:48 |
DaemonFC | Mandy needed over 10 fillings. | May 26 01:49 |
DaemonFC | I think it was like 11 fillings, but I can't be sure. It was awful. | May 26 01:49 |
DaemonFC | And it was either that or lose the rest of his teeth and go into full dentures. | May 26 01:49 |
DaemonFC | I could probably sink not having any fluoride in my water just because I'm pedantic about brushing my teeth with fluoride toothpaste and getting fluoride varnish applied to them 3 or 4 times a year. | May 26 01:53 |
DaemonFC | Unless you're absolutely sure everyone in your family is brushing with fluoride toothpaste like they should and getting routine fluoride treatments, you should be very careful to avoid water filters that remove it from the water. | May 26 01:55 |
DaemonFC | It's considered a public health measure because when you remove it from the water system, it's the children who don't brush right and eat lots of candy, and the poor and homeless, who suffer the most. | May 26 01:56 |

DaemonFC | The EPA and the Illinois EPA recommend on to "save money" on water bills. In fact, they only save you like maybe 20 or 30 cents a month. It's not huge, and the landlord is paying for the water anyway. Then in the same breath, the Illinois Department of Public Health and the EPA also say you need to take the aerator off and clean it regularly in hot vinegar to dissolve the crud that accumulates on it. | May 26 02:22 |

DaemonFC | The only reason the government wants everyone to use an aerator is because while it barely makes a dent in water usage for an individual, if everyone in a state took theirs off, you'd go through millions and millions more gallons of water. | May 26 02:23 |
DaemonFC | And in a state where that matters, because they don't manage their water that well and have allowed corrupt interests to take over their water resources board, like, oh, California...... | May 26 02:24 |
DaemonFC | They want you to save water so that people growing almonds can use a gallon of water per almond. | May 26 02:24 |

DaemonFC | Seems the UK gets ripped off for Brita filters. Works out to $6.29 USD per filter if you buy the Maxtra+ by the dozen, except they only filter 26.5 US gallons per filter. | May 26 11:25 |
DaemonFC | The method that Brita GmbH uses in their Maxtra filter seems to be similar to the Brita Standard Filter that Clorox makes for the US Brita filters, which cost $4 each in packs of 6 and filter 40 US gallons of water each. | May 26 11:26 |
DaemonFC | Activated Coconut Shell Carbon with Ion Exchange Resin and mesh on both ends to gather coarse particles on the inlet and to prevent flecks of carbon on the outlet. | May 26 11:27 |
DaemonFC | I tore open an old US (Clorox) Brita standard filter that I was disposing of yesterday and it contains quite a lot of carbon and ion exchange resin. | May 26 11:28 |
DaemonFC | By volume you get about 1/6th more total filtration material vs. a typical knockoff that fits the pitchers, and most of that difference appears to be in the quantity of ion exchange resin. | May 26 11:29 |
DaemonFC | They're not poorly constructed, at all. | May 26 11:29 |
DaemonFC | For the money, it's definitely worth going original Brita on the filters vs. trying to get Target or Home Depot filters or something. | May 26 11:29 |
DaemonFC | Even a guy on YouTube tore into the generics and just found that there was "less stuff" inside the generics. He poured the contents into Dixie cups and weighed them, and the Brita had the most filtration media (carbon+resin) in it. | May 26 11:30 |
DaemonFC | The competitors save money by screwing you out of filtration media. | May 26 11:31 |
DaemonFC | Since the filter's ability to operate is in direct proportion to the amount of filtration media inside a filter, that means that there's no way those off brand filters perform the same as a Brita over the stated 40 gallon lifespan of each unit. | May 26 11:32 |
DaemonFC | I would suggest that anyone who wants to compare should ask the off brand filter manufacturer for a Performance Data Sheet and compare it to the Brita. They're all required to list which contaminants they filter that they wish to make a claim for, and the average level of filtration efficacy over the stated life of the filter. | May 26 11:34 |
DaemonFC | If they won't do that, something underhanded is going on. | May 26 11:34 |
DaemonFC | It looks like the main difference between US Brita (Clorox, which also sells the same stuff in Canada and Mexico) and Brita GmbH (most of the rest of the world) is that Brita GmbH is charging about 23.7 cents per gallon to filter water using Maxtra and US Brita is charging about 10 or 11 cents per gallon for Standard or "Elite" (LongLast) filters. The US Brita is the superior model. | May 26 11:37 |
DaemonFC | I doubt flow problems are common with either unit. Granular Activated Carbon+Ion Exchange Resin is hard to plug up unless you're trying to pack small granules together so tightly that you can make a PDS claim for lead removal. | May 26 11:39 |
DaemonFC | If I was in Europe, I'd probably just import a US Brita system and a bunch of filters. | May 26 11:39 |

This greatly simplifies digital zine distribution; you can post a PDF that uses the standard A4 paper size" gemini://degrowther.smol.pub/20220526_pro_ | May 26 17:04 |

schestowitz_TR2 | MinceR: : heads removed systemd from it | May 26 17:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | but is unmaintained for years already | May 26 17:54 |
matey | its bsd for your computer or bdsm for your computing | May 26 17:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | is there a tor distro based on a bad? | May 26 17:55 |
schestowitz_TR2 | *bsd | May 26 17:55 |
matey | no. because tor distros are for people who cant install and use tor | May 26 17:55 |
matey | im not against this | May 26 17:55 |
matey | but bsd is generally aimed (for now) at people who can install and run tor | May 26 17:56 |
matey | i suspect the more people that move to bsd, the more we will see derivatives of freebsd and netbsd and openbsd | May 26 17:56 |
matey | there are a few already of course | May 26 17:56 |
schestowitz_TR2 | <matey> no. because tor distros are for people who cant install and use tor | May 26 17:56 |
schestowitz_TR2 | this is partly untruie | May 26 17:56 |
matey | they are against calling them distros-- which i think is funny, because the "d" in bsd literally stands for "distribution" | May 26 17:56 |
schestowitz_TR2 | tails is a way to use as a live, volatille system a tor browser and other tools | May 26 17:57 |
matey | this is partly untrue <- oh really, which part? | May 26 17:57 |
schestowitz_TR2 | without any fingereprints | May 26 17:57 |
matey | oh, that | May 26 17:57 |
matey | yes, thats fair | May 26 17:57 |
schestowitz_TR2 | soem people install tails to pass data | May 26 17:57 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and process that data | May 26 17:57 |
matey | i suppose you could use fuguita for that | May 26 17:57 |
schestowitz_TR2 | tails comes with some software on it that lets metadata get removed iirc | May 26 17:57 |
schestowitz_TR2 | \ | May 26 17:57 |
matey | but maybe in the near future there will be increased demand for this | May 26 17:58 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I use mat2 to remove cruft from files | May 26 17:58 |
matey | its sad that tails moved to systemd | May 26 17:58 |
schestowitz_TR2 | tails is not just os+toir_browser | May 26 17:58 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it's supposed to be "boot into this thing" and live in avacuum | May 26 17:58 |
matey | no but its little more than that | May 26 17:58 |
schestowitz_TR2 | for a little while | May 26 17:59 |
schestowitz_TR2 | of course today's hardwareis hostile | May 26 17:59 |

schestowitz_TR2 | what the ethernet and wifi ports/modules are doing | May 26 17:59 |
matey | indeed | May 26 17:59 |
matey | though a lot of sec people seem to think thats not such a big deal | May 26 17:59 |
matey | then again, a lot of sec people shill for windows too. its a weird industry | May 26 17:59 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it makes life hard | May 26 18:00 |
schestowitz_TR2 | then they want us toi think microsoft signing binaries is "security" | May 26 18:00 |

matey | dr andy seems to have about zero faith in the sec industry | May 26 18:00 |
schestowitz_TR2 | secuirity can mean, don't use a computer | May 26 18:00 |
schestowitz_TR2 | there are other ways to pass files and info | May 26 18:00 |

matey | usually you treat it almost like snake oil | May 26 18:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | partly | May 26 18:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | many people will install tor on unafe systems | May 26 18:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and use it wrongly | May 26 18:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | btw, many in epo seem to have moved to libreoffice | May 26 18:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and use odf | May 26 18:02 |
matey | that seems like a mistake on their part, to put it nicely | May 26 18:02 |
schestowitz_TR2 | maybe my own fault | May 26 18:02 |
matey | better libreoffice than microsoft office | May 26 18:02 |

matey | im not sure those provide this sort of result | May 26 18:25 |

matey | linux doesnt | May 26 18:52 |
matey | without freedom 3 its only pretend free software | May 26 18:53 |

schestowitz_TR2 | but freedom 5 | May 26 18:53 |

schestowitz_TR2 | that's the issue | May 26 18:53 |
schestowitz_TR2 | too big... hard to remove stuff | May 26 18:53 |
matey | without freedom 5 there is no freedom 3 | May 26 18:53 |
schestowitz_TR2 | so you need to redefine the 4 Freedoms | May 26 18:53 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and then use a new def. for "free sofwtare" | May 26 18:53 |
matey | in the early days of gnu freedom 4 (not 5, the fifth freedom is freedom 4) was implicit | May 26 18:53 |
matey | so you need to redefine the 4 Freedoms <- no, you just need to count the ones that existed before | May 26 18:54 |
matey | then you can see that one is now missing | May 26 18:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | complexity too is a form of vendor lockin | May 26 18:54 |
matey | and its a dependency of freedom 3 | May 26 18:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | in recent years we learned that frequent releases too | May 26 18:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | like Chrome and Mozilla do | May 26 18:54 |

schestowitz_TR2 | you can barely fgork it | May 26 18:54 |
matey | if yoyu remove freedom 4, freedom 3 starts to buckle | May 26 18:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | by ther time you make something work OK you are already several versions behind | May 26 18:54 |
matey | but gnu already had freedom 4 | May 26 18:55 |
matey | it abandoned it | May 26 18:55 |
matey | now youre lucky if you have freedom 3 (but it would take more than the usual bit of luck) | May 26 18:55 |
matey | (more like a miracle) | May 26 18:55 |
matey | without freedom 3, what you have is the freedom to rewrite the entire project | May 26 18:56 |
matey | but you already have that with non-free software | May 26 18:56 |
matey | so linux is non-free | May 26 18:56 |

DaemonFC | I replied: | May 26 19:25 |
DaemonFC | I'm just not seeing a use for this. The other day at 7/11 in Chicago, I was with my spouse going to his Consulate to get his passport renewed, and he invited some of his friends from the same country to go with us. | May 26 19:26 |
DaemonFC | One of them kept tapping her stupid iPhone while the system said "ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR BEEP BEEP BEEP ERROR" and the second person working in the store had to walk up to another register so I could pay for my items with my Discover card (the actual card) and it said "BEEP...Approved" and she handed me my receipt while his friend was over there still tapping her stupid iPhone. I went outside and like five minutes later they came out. | May 26 19:26 |
DaemonFC | The actual card.....Don't leave home without it! :) | May 26 19:26 |

bnchs | bring your phone so we can track you faster | May 26 19:26 |
CrystalMath | it's a disaster and it must be refused at all costs | May 26 19:27 |
DaemonFC | I wonder if I can find some ion exchange resin that would fit in an empty Brita filter that I could just keep swapping out and replacing. | May 26 19:28 |
bnchs | DaemonFC: wait until they deprecate credit cards | May 26 19:29 |
DaemonFC | There's quite a bit in a standard cartridge, but most of it is Granular Activated Carbon. So the Elite LongLast filter removes 30+ contaminants, but copper and zinc aren't on them, and it doesn't appear to do as well at dealing with Trihalomethanes, because I know what those taste like. | May 26 19:29 |
bnchs | because "everyone has a phone!" | May 26 19:29 |
MinceR | þ | May 26 19:29 |
DaemonFC | So I set up a system where in one tank, I run it full with a fresh standard cartridge, and then I hold the UltraMax with a LongLast cartridge underneath and the standard one acts as a pre-filter now. | May 26 19:30 |
DaemonFC | And that seems to do a more complete filtering job. By the time both are done, I don't taste anything in the water at all. | May 26 19:30 |
DaemonFC | We have some really shitty plumbing here. | May 26 19:31 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Steam Deck Motherboard - iFixit Store | May 26 19:31 | |
DaemonFC | So I'm almost certain what I was tasting when I switched to the blue filter was copper and/or zinc mostly. It tasted metallic, but the standard filter as a first stage does get that out. | May 26 19:31 |
DaemonFC | The two systems work better together than either one does alone. | May 26 19:32 |

DaemonFC | And I calculated what it would cost to run it like this to be 19 cents per gallon, which is still 5 times cheaper than bottled water, half the price of the water island machine, and 7 times cheaper than ZeroWater. | May 26 19:32 |
zure | good luck ifixing that | May 26 19:32 |
DaemonFC | Those Water Island machines can be pretty dangerous. You have no idea what the employees actually do to maintain them. Some have safe municipal water going in and water that's oozing with bacteria coming out. | May 26 19:33 |
DaemonFC | When California investigated them, about a third would have violated for Coliform Bacteria under the SDWA, and many also had mold growing in them because the company wasn't servicing the filters. | May 26 19:34 |
DaemonFC | So, a reverse osmosis system may be worth using, in theory. | May 26 19:34 |
DaemonFC | But in fact, it all depends on if they maintain it, and since you can't open up the machine and see if it's full of mold, you have no idea what's going on in there. | May 26 19:34 |
DaemonFC | I was considering a Brita faucet filter, but the confounding thing about those is, they remove MORE contaminants, but there's ones that every filter they make misses that the others get. | May 26 19:36 |
DaemonFC | :/ | May 26 19:36 |
DaemonFC | Or at least that's what they say. I don't know why they don't seek certification under NSF/ANSI for something their filter does. Seems logical they'd like to make another claim if the design can handle it. | May 26 19:37 |
DaemonFC | Modern Castle found the standard cartridge removed almost 100% Total Trihalomethanes, but that's not a claim Brita makes, unless you buy the faucet adapter. | May 26 19:37 |
DaemonFC | The only thing I can think of is the testing procedure. | May 26 19:38 |
DaemonFC | NSF/ANSI testing procedure looks at what the filter is still doing after you run 2.5 times as much water as the manufacturer is looking to claim through it. | May 26 19:38 |
DaemonFC | So it's possible that the GAC/Ion Exchange system can do TTHMs initially and for the rated life of the filter, but not for 2.5 times the rated lifespan. | May 26 19:39 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, While I was researching what to do about my water, I looked into the Berkey systems and those are full of lulz. | May 26 19:39 |
DaemonFC | They have no actual certifications. | May 26 19:39 |
DaemonFC | They're not legal in two states, because they demand you go through the NSF/ANSI testing first, which is relatively cheap considering what the Berkey systems cost and the money they must bring in, which screams to me they just don't want to have to prove they work. | May 26 19:40 |
DaemonFC | Independent lab tests paid for by actual reviewers show their results aren't nearly as good as they claim, which further backs this up. | May 26 19:40 |
DaemonFC | They don't sell their products directly, they do it through a network of shady salespeople, like Kirby vacuum cleaners. | May 26 19:41 |
DaemonFC | One of their sales points is that the initial cost is high, but the filters run for 3,000 gallons. One report I read showed that the system basically stops working after about 1,100 gallons, but the user wouldn't know that unless they did their own expensive lab tests. | May 26 19:43 |
DaemonFC | Also, another person I read says that a common complaint that happened to their Berkey is that eventually they spring leaks because the system gets dented or a gasket wears out, and they have to buy a new system or at least a repair kit. | May 26 19:43 |
DaemonFC | And yet another report I read shows that they use a form of aluminum to remove the fluoride, and then leech aluminum from the filter into the water you're drinking. | May 26 19:44 |
*bnchs has quit (Quit: leaving) | May 26 19:44 | |
DaemonFC | And yet another report I read, a person poured distilled water into the Berkey with a TDS rating of 0, and it came out "filtered" with a TDS rating of over 300. | May 26 19:45 |

DaemonFC | They can't at this point unless they make NFC payments on phones actually work. And Apple Pay, at least, is still too shitty and terrible to actually work, and they don't seem to be improving it at all. | May 26 20:24 |
DaemonFC | It's like Samsung Pay where they just dumped it there to call it a feature and then ran off to do something else and after like 20 times tapping your phone like an idiot, the payment may actually go through. | May 26 20:25 |
schestowitz_TR2 | DaemonFC: we need to write more about war on cash | May 26 20:27 |
schestowitz_TR2 | the founde r of original PP | May 26 20:28 |
schestowitz_TR2 | in sweden | May 26 20:28 |
schestowitz_TR2 | did some good posts abooout it over a decade ago | May 26 20:28 |
schestowitz_TR2 | as sweden is notorious for its war on cash | May 26 20:28 |
schestowitz_TR2 | he had a nervous breakdown and is not appearing much in public anymore | May 26 20:28 |
schestowitz_TR2 | my knowledge of war on cash is likely more limited than yours | May 26 20:28 |
schestowitz_TR2 | because I mostly pay with cash, which means I'm not too familiar with the alternative to that | May 26 20:29 |
DaemonFC | There's a lot of fronts on that. | May 26 20:29 |
schestowitz_TR2 | like all those "phone" things | May 26 20:29 |
schestowitz_TR2 | "contactless" | May 26 20:29 |
schestowitz_TR2 | pure BS | May 26 20:29 |
schestowitz_TR2 | like people fancying star trek and star wars sci-fi | May 26 20:29 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it's likely just some rf/bt thing | May 26 20:29 |
DaemonFC | Larry Summers, one of the Clinton Regime's guys (treasury) suggested getting rid of the $100 bill to make carrying large amounts of cash more difficult, and said we maybe should get rid of anything larger than $20 (which means the $50 gets eliminated too). | May 26 20:30 |
schestowitz_TR2 | or some tokens over radio | May 26 20:30 |
DaemonFC | With hyperinflation, very soon the $20 won't buy anything and they can use that to justify getting rid of cash entirely. | May 26 20:30 |
schestowitz_TR2 | DaemonFC: did you write about this topic? | May 26 20:30 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I have many blind spots there | May 26 20:30 |
schestowitz_TR2 | so could use some collab on the info | May 26 20:30 |
schestowitz_TR2 | like with "smart" cars | May 26 20:30 |
DaemonFC | When I wanted to buy a used car 10 or 15 years ago, I only had to carry 22 $100 bills. | May 26 20:31 |
DaemonFC | This time I had to carry 80 of them. | May 26 20:31 |
DaemonFC | But there's hardly any inflation, you know. | May 26 20:31 |
schestowitz_TR2 | inflation is just a tax | May 26 20:31 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it impacts not only savers btw | May 26 20:31 |
DaemonFC | If they get rid of the $100, then right away, you need to carry 160 $50s, and if they get rid of the $50, you need to carry 400 $20s. | May 26 20:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | people who have no savings barely make ends meet | May 26 20:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | so inflation to them means going into debt, faster... | May 26 20:32 |
DaemonFC | Soon it's impossible to pay for a car in cash. Any car. Because you'll have to carry a sack full of $20s. | May 26 20:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | not true | May 26 20:32 |
DaemonFC | They say it stifles "terrorists". | May 26 20:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | a car at $10,000 | May 26 20:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | used one | May 26 20:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | would be 500 notes | May 26 20:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | that's like two envelopes | May 26 20:33 |
DaemonFC | They want to make it a big nuisance. | May 26 20:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and you could stand there counting 5 times | May 26 20:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | plus check they all look autehntic | May 26 20:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | might take less than an hour | May 26 20:33 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, The bank said I ran them out of cash asking for enough to buy an $8,000 car. | May 26 20:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | some "apps" and "banks" would take more than an hour | May 26 20:33 |
DaemonFC | They don't carry much cash, so that's another problem. | May 26 20:33 |

DaemonFC | Tell that to Stallman. | May 26 20:34 |

schestowitz_TR2 | I need to move my chair in front of the keyboard | May 26 20:34 |

DaemonFC | Bankruptcy gets rid of the debts. | May 26 20:35 |
schestowitz_TR2 | DaemonFC: afaik, rms only once links to some jon schwartz article from omidyar pac | May 26 20:35 |
DaemonFC | I told Stallman that instead of rooting for inflation, he should be calling for making bankruptcy less complicated and going back to once every 6 years, instead of 8. | May 26 20:35 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I already warned rms ages ago that this site was toxic | May 26 20:35 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it burned sources | May 26 20:35 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, 5% is kind of high for credit card swiping fees, isn't it? | May 26 21:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | steep | May 26 21:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | maybe they do want people to use cash after all ;-) | May 26 21:18 |
DaemonFC | I thought it was like 3-4% but then again I heard Vista and Bastard Card just raised them again. | May 26 21:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and now you can double mask and wear a har | May 26 21:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | *hat | May 26 21:18 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, merchants are fucking pissed about the new swipe fees. | May 26 21:18 |
schestowitz_TR2 | so it's doubly hard to figure out whoi's paying | May 26 21:18 |
DaemonFC | It's eating them alive so that banks can fund hotel rooms and airplane tickets for their cardholders, schestowitz_TR2 | May 26 21:19 |
schestowitz_TR2 | I'm wearing a hat and two masks - > https://www.mancity.com/citytv/mens/inside-city-397-champions-parade-special-63789064 | May 26 21:19 |
DaemonFC | Like, I have enough credit card rewards that I just funded an entire vacation in July with them. | May 26 21:19 |
DaemonFC | And while I was doing that, the resort offered me another credit card with another signing bonus, and bonus points on their hotel points scheme. | May 26 21:20 |
DaemonFC | So between the cards and the hotel's own points, you can get a lot of free nights. | May 26 21:20 |
DaemonFC | Next year I'll have enough points to book a night for free with hotel points. | May 26 21:20 |
DaemonFC | It's pretty sick, schestowitz_TR2 with the credit card points, because we all know who they come from. They come from people paying in cash who can't get a credit card. | May 26 21:21 |
DaemonFC | Or don't use one because they don't think the points are worth the tracking. | May 26 21:21 |
DaemonFC | It's a zero sum game. The bank tosses out the points as bait. They keep part of the interchange fee for "facilitating the transactions", and then cash and debit card payers have to foot the bill. | May 26 21:22 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, But they did do quite a bit of work on that car for $2,300. That was a LOT of rust. | May 26 21:23 |
DaemonFC | I saw the before and after on that outer rocker alone. The last owner let the trim separate enough that like, salt water or something got in, and it started corroding the entire panel. | May 26 21:23 |
DaemonFC | So they had to grind and cut out rust and then patch it by welding in sheet metal, and then make it flush using a fiberglass finish, and then prime and paint it. | May 26 21:24 |
DaemonFC | So that was where almost all of the labor went. | May 26 21:25 |
DaemonFC | The last body shop quoted me at 15 hours plus 2 for paint on the rocker panel alone. | May 26 21:25 |
DaemonFC | Rust repair is really tricky stuff. It's a lot of labor time, it's hard to guarantee it will be permanent. | May 26 21:26 |
DaemonFC | But as a general rule, these sorts of repairs usually hold up for at least 7-8 years before things begin to start looking a little ugly again and if you don't fix it, what'll happen is that the panel will finish rusting away, the trim will fall out, and then you're missing part of the car. | May 26 21:27 |
DaemonFC | And there are cars like that in the parking lot here and that's a major eyesore. | May 26 21:27 |
DaemonFC | With nothing protecting the body behind the trim, what happens is that salt water and road debris start eating out your doors from bottom to top. | May 26 21:28 |
DaemonFC | And basically the car falls apart due to rusting away. | May 26 21:28 |

DaemonFC | And of course I live in the rust belt. Rust be like "OM NOM NOM CAR NOM NOM! TASTY CAR! NOM NOM WANT MOAR CAR!!!". | May 26 21:29 |
DaemonFC | Pretty much the only upside of living in California is your car doesn't rust that fast, unless you're living on the coast where the salt gets into the air, and then it can get pretty nasty. | May 26 21:29 |

DaemonFC | You know, that church shooting in California could have been stopped. That guy that died trying to stop him didn't have to die. If everyone in that church had a gun, they could have ended it a lot faster. | May 26 21:32 |
DaemonFC | Then you wouldn't have to worry about the California liberals on the jury and what they'll do to that Chinese guy at the trial. | May 26 21:32 |

*bnchs has quit (Quit: Lost terminal) | May 26 21:33 | |
zure | just like if all the kids had guns | May 26 21:33 |
DaemonFC | The media wanted the narrative to be "guns bad" and instead of focusing on the fact that the gunman was Chinese and the reason he wanted everyone in that church to die was that they were from Taiwan. | May 26 21:33 |
DaemonFC | If someone was actually concerned about letting in a bunch of people from China who are probably spies or at least bringing their Communist brainwashing here with them, that could have been stopped. | May 26 21:34 |
DaemonFC | I'd describe myself as a Libertarian except that that comes with too much baggage too, because then people think you agree with the US Libertarian Party, which are basically Goldwater-era Republicans, but not entirely. | May 26 21:35 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, There was a segment of Facebook comments I was reading earlier. And someone was complaining about Section 8 Housing tenants who had their car stereos thumping all night in the alley behind his apartment so he couldn't sleep, "before I head to work in the morning". | May 26 21:40 |
DaemonFC | Then he asked others what their favorite thing about Section 8 tenants was. Another guy chimed in and said as a landlord, that they have plenty of money for weed, liquor, and Newport cigarettes, but can't come up with their share of the rent. Including one that only has to pay him $3 a month. | May 26 21:40 |
DaemonFC | Chicago :) | May 26 21:40 |
DaemonFC | Congress keeps taking a stab at healthcare reform every now and then. Some of it actually is market-based and effective, and I think the No Surprises Act is one of the better things they've passed in years. | May 26 21:42 |
DaemonFC | You go to an ER and you don't just get a bill from the ER, which may be in your insurance network. You get a bill from whichever arbitrary lab they use, which you have no say over, and whichever Physician's Group they contract with, which nobody lets you decide on, and you had no idea what anything was going to cost as a package before you decide which hospital to have a procedure done in, so the bill for something could be $7,000 or $70,000. | May 26 21:43 |
DaemonFC | The No Surprises Act basically makes everything that follows in-network if the facility is in-network. | May 26 21:43 |

schestowitz_TR2 | you are showing bigotry there | May 26 22:29 |

DaemonFC | Also, it referenced the federal Gun Control Act of 1968 that says Illegal Alien. | May 26 22:31 |
DaemonFC | The Democrats have controlled Congress numerous times and the federal laws still say that too. | May 26 22:31 |
DaemonFC | Amazing! | May 26 22:31 |
DaemonFC | Very woke. | May 26 22:31 |

schestowitz_TR2 | it's off-topic anyway | May 26 22:32 |

schestowitz_TR2 | where desperate people start shooting kids for revenge | May 26 22:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | en masse | May 26 22:32 |
DaemonFC | There is no prohibition on gun ownership of any kind under Illinois or federal law that says anything about prohibiting "black" people. | May 26 22:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and then you blae the wrong people | May 26 22:32 |
schestowitz_TR2 | let's talk about tech | May 26 22:33 |
schestowitz_TR2 | move the powwow about guns to another channel | May 26 22:33 |
DaemonFC | There are prohibitions against felons who do things like rape, murder, fucking kids....I mean.... | May 26 22:33 |
DaemonFC | Little stuff, you know. | May 26 22:33 |
DaemonFC | Slinging dope. Selling crack. Selling meth. | May 26 22:33 |
DaemonFC | Those people can't legally own a gun. | May 26 22:33 |
DaemonFC | There's many white people who are legally barred from gun ownership for conviction of a felony offense. | May 26 22:34 |
DaemonFC | Never hear about them, but there's hundreds of thousands at least. | May 26 22:34 |
DaemonFC | They have to say black people are on the business end of being Brady disqualified to make it sound racist. | May 26 22:34 |
DaemonFC | Anyone who is the victim of a bogus restraining order is also Brady disqualified, including at one point, Johnny Depp. | May 26 22:35 |
DaemonFC | And David Letterman, because some woman in Nevada complained that he was sending her psychic messages through her TV set. | May 26 22:35 |
DaemonFC | And the judge issued a restraining order because she "filled out the papers correctly". | May 26 22:35 |
techrights-news | Two companies I hate. One buys the other. I hope the graveyard has two adjacent slots for them. | May 26 22:36 |
DaemonFC | That woman who claimed Letterman was sending her psychic messages through the television made it illegal for Letterman to own a gun under the 1993 Brady Bill until the restraining order was lifted two years later. | May 26 22:36 |

DaemonFC | B-) | May 26 22:37 |
DaemonFC | It doesn't have to be reasonable, or make sense. The law is twisted and warped and used to make a perversion of itself by judges and juries in courtrooms across America every day, thousands of times over. | May 26 22:37 |
DaemonFC | And it usually comes from braindead politicians passing this shit without even reading it, or putting it up for debate. | May 26 22:38 |
