[01:11] DaemonFC Sci Fi shows in particular are expensive to produce. Obviously, TV commercials are not an issue on Netflix, but the production costs are. [01:12] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, That's why the Sci Fi channel got rid of its Sci Fi programming and started running things like wrestling and shows about towing people's cars away. [01:13] DaemonFC Very cheap and low brow. Easy to sell commercials on because those idiots will buy anything. [01:13] XRevan86 DaemonFC: After the second season of Altered Carbon? I think that makes sense. [01:13] XRevan86 It wasn't bad, I enjoyed it, but it wasn't particularly deep.

[01:23] DaemonFC I was pissed about Galactica. Somewhat pissed about SGU. [01:23] DaemonFC I canceled cable in 2009 I think. [01:24] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Was Battlestar Galactica (2004) cancelled? I remember it having an ending so crazy it made my eyes roll so much it hurt. [01:26] DaemonFC That's why. Sci Fi canceled it and then agreed to a wrap up season because the network they partnered with in Canada demanded some sort of ending. [01:26] XRevan86 DaemonFC: It was crazy before the final season too. [01:29] XRevan86 Lost in Space I saw a few episodes of that. [01:29] XRevan86 DaemonFC: It's both dull and dumb. Quite impressive. [01:30] XRevan86 I can't recall any other series that goes into science with such love and devotion except that it's offensive to anyone who went to school. [01:31] DaemonFC They're getting ready to do BSG again. [01:31] XRevan86 I mean that it focuses on "science" that's happening there, while it being a bunch of non-sense. [01:31] DaemonFC Should be interesting without Glen "Larceny" as a producer. [01:31] XRevan86 DaemonFC: So both your examples, Lost in Space and Altered Carbon, had it coming. [01:35] DaemonFC They should have been able to do more with both, and didn't. [01:35] DaemonFC So blowing money and then canceling things.... [01:36] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Doing more how? By telling the authors to do better? [01:41] DaemonFC Yeah. Giving them some incentives.

[18:28] activelow which means, those political parties systematically violate national and international law, they are constitutional enemies [18:28] psydruid I should try to find out how to build an AppImage, just so I know [18:28] DaemonFC When you start Debian, it works. It not only works, but you don't have a corporate cesspool in your face. [18:29] schestowitz-TR DaemonFC: you can use the same CD-ROM/DVD on the new one later [18:29] DaemonFC Talking about how it scanned your device 7 times and no threats to Microsoft to report on. [18:29] schestowitz-TR Rianne and I shared the disc [18:29] schestowitz-TR I first showed her how I installed it on hers [18:29] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I'll probably just take the defaults. [18:29] schestowitz-TR later she did it on her on... on mine (the main laptop) [18:29] schestowitz-TR you can teach mandy [18:29] DaemonFC BtrFS page on Debian shows that they're highly skeptical of it. [18:30] DaemonFC They warn not to use Compress because that alone has had at least one major data eating bug every year. [18:30] schestowitz-TR DaemonFC: Plasma? [18:30] DaemonFC On top of the base fs shitting itself. [18:30] schestowitz-TR I installed all the DEs except GNOME [18:30] DaemonFC I'm using GNOME right now. [18:30] DaemonFC How is KDE? [18:30] schestowitz-TR better [18:31] schestowitz-TR no apparent bugs [18:31] DaemonFC I was wondering if it was KDE that was buggy or the distros I was trying it on. [18:31] DaemonFC Fedora has gotta be the worst. [18:31] schestowitz-TR Fedora is dead man walking [18:31] DaemonFC Can't even log in and out reliably. [18:31] schestowitz-TR an IBM zombie [18:31] schestowitz-TR no community [18:31] schestowitz-TR barely any testers [18:31] schestowitz-TR they ban their own community: [18:32] schestowitz http://techrights.org/2021/08/20/we-build-fedora-and-then-ibm-blacklists-us/ [18:32] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Imperialistic Blacklist Machines: Racist IBM and Red Hat Just Like Donald Trump Have Turned Fedora Into an Utterly Racist Project That Blacklists, Shuns and Permanently Bans People Based on Their Nationality Alone | Techrights [18:32] DaemonFC They threatened me, so I just left. [18:32] schestowitz https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1d0rqcsL [18:32] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.thelayoff.com | Excited about potentially joining Red Hat - post regarding IBM layoffs [18:32] schestowitz see replies [18:32] DaemonFC Their IRC that is. What they did to Kevin Kofler was kind of the last straw. [18:32] DaemonFC I install some proprietary programs on my computer. [18:32] schestowitz also posted in https://www.thelayoff.com/red-hat [18:32] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Red Hat Layoffs - TheLayoff.com [18:33] DaemonFC But they really shouldn't be advertising them, but each release they care less and less about splitting the hair mighty thin. [18:33] DaemonFC Now they're openly hawking it, Microsoft stuff even. [18:33] schestowitz Kevin Kofler did not respond to my email [18:33] schestowitz maybe he thought he could still mend things with IBM [18:33] schestowitz and their shills who don't even USE Linux [18:33] DaemonFC Vivaldi being an odd choice for Debian? Not really. [18:34] DaemonFC I think Debian was shipping Netscape at one point when it was 100% proprietary. [18:34] schestowitz-TR what's lacking in falkon? [18:34] DaemonFC Pretty much all distributions did that in the 90s. They chucked it for Mozilla Suite ASAP, but for a long time Netscape and Opera were the only ones where you had any chance at using the web. [18:35] DaemonFC Falkon is just another Chromium browser, although it will bring in all of Qt, which embeds Chromium now. Yuck. [18:35] schestowitz-TR DaemonFC: anyway, I applaud you for taking a step in the right direction [18:35] schestowitz-TR it'll be harder to convince gamers who move over to gnu/linux to boycott drm [18:35] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, There's some articles about bringing GNOME 40 into Debian 11. [18:35] schestowitz-TR which means steam and whatever [18:36] DaemonFC Yes, well, even if you pirate video games now, that's not very fun either. [18:36] schestowitz-TR but first we need tro eradicate windows for the crap Microsoft turned that into over the past 20 years if not more [18:36] schestowitz-TR since XP at least [18:36] schestowitz-TR 1999= back doors [18:36] DaemonFC They sabotage them beyond just figuring out how to make the executable work. [18:36] schestowitz-TR 1998= illegal MSIE bundling/integration [18:36] DaemonFC And then the people doing the release might put in malware. [18:36] DaemonFC You'll never know. [18:37] schestowitz-TR Windows 3.11 wasn't great, but it didn't do many of the same malicious things just yet [18:37] DaemonFC Older games for Windows work in Wine, especially if Gog came along and took out the DRM. [18:37] schestowitz-TR GNOME 40 is not importanty [18:37] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I got Oblivion running in Wine on this old laptop. [18:37] schestowitz-TR it sounds important because of the number [18:37] schestowitz-TR it's also "old" because of 41 [18:38] DaemonFC It has a lot of bugs, but I figured out workarounds and went through them in my WineDB post. [18:38] schestowitz-TR DaemonFC: no keyloggers [18:38] schestowitz-TR I still have many old nintendo and sega roms [18:38] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I suppose I could just "backport" GNOME Web from there. [18:38] DaemonFC It's available as a Flatpak by itself. [18:38] schestowitz-TR heck, I still have DOOM on some external drives [18:39] *activelow has quit (Quit: rebooting) [18:40] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I'm still evaluating what works and doesn't. [18:40] DaemonFC The funny part iss my wifi seems faster even if it only works in WiFi 5 mode right now. [18:41] DaemonFC Probably because Windows networking is such an unholy mess and Wireguard is in the kernel and NordVPN can just leverage that instead of that WinTun garbage. [18:42] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I suppose barring any major disappointments later, I may go ahead and back up some data and then commit Debian 11 to the disk on the newer laptop. [18:42] DaemonFC The HDMI out to the TV works fine. Audio and video. [18:42] DaemonFC The Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse and the Airpods both work fine. [18:43] schestowitz-TR those are standard interfaces [18:43] schestowitz-TR both [18:43] schestowitz-TR waste of batteries though [18:43] schestowitz-TR cords are not evil [18:43] schestowitz-TR yuppie vanity crap [18:44] schestowitz-TR BT+battery devices are more expensive to replace than the ones we use here [18:44] schestowitz-TR and if you have lights on them, then they take up power faster [18:44] *activelow (~activelow@7zmmwv4qqhr7u.irc) has joined #techrights [18:44] schestowitz-TR backlights and stuff [18:44] techrights-news Devices: #RaspberryPi Projects, RISC-V, and More http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/156110 #GNU #Linux #TuxMachines [18:44] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.tuxmachines.org | Devices: Raspberry Pi Projects, RISC-V, and More | Tux Machines [18:45] techrights-news #Brave reduces the page load performance cost of its adblocker http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/156111 #GNU #Linux #TuxMachines [18:45] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.tuxmachines.org | Brave reduces the page load performance cost of its adblocker | Tux Machines [18:45] DaemonFC Hmm, airpods won't pair with my old laptop [18:45] schestowitz-TR well done, mady [18:46] schestowitz-TR mandy buying useless crap [18:46] DaemonFC There they go.

[20:45] schestowitz-TR DaemonFC: no popint to it [20:46] schestowitz-TR more risk than benefit [20:46] activelow schestowitz-TR: i do not consider those GNU developers hostile who implemented UEFI; instead the corporations who enforced UEFI usage are hostile [20:46] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, One of the BIOS updates along the way was to "enable Ubuntu support". [20:46] schestowitz-TR [20:45] schestowitz-TR: problem is, if GNU didn't implement UEFI then GNU/linux may not have been possible to boot anymore [20:46] activelow *able [20:46] schestowitz-TR we refuted this point many years ago [20:46] DaemonFC I can only assume that means it did something that Linux doesn't like and they patched it, probably incompetently because they're Lenovo. [20:46] schestowitz-TR with mjg59_ [20:46] *techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [20:46] schestowitz-TR it's like saying, if we didn't 'adopt' OOXML, we'd be in trouble [20:47] schestowitz-TR or Adobe Flash [20:47] activelow i can boot linux without UEFI, on a u-booted system, meaning i removed UEFI from bios itself. this is not possible with typical IBM Wintel systems, regardless of the operating system [20:47] DaemonFC OOXML is awful and it takes up so much development time to just fix endless problems caused by the bad specifications or making it compatible with Microsoft's violations of their own alleged standard. [20:47] schestowitz-TR short story is, this kind of logic lets some OEMs get away with trying to make 'secure' boot COMPULSORY [20:48] DaemonFC Literally every LibreOffice release is like 30-40% fixing bugs regarding swapping files between LibreOffice and Microsoft. [20:48] DaemonFC It's nuts. [20:48] schestowitz-TR yeah [20:48] schestowitz-TR I noticed the same [20:48] schestowitz-TR we tried to prevent it [20:48] activelow schestowitz-TR: some similarities to OOXML exist, but without UEFI support linux may not have been able to boot anymore at all, while you may choose to refrain from LibreOffice and use TeX instead [20:48] schestowitz-TR but Microsoft's de Icaza said it was "a superb standard" [20:48] activelow schestowitz-TR: if you cannot boot gnu/linux anymore at all then there is no choice remaining [20:48] DaemonFC This isn't sustainable. It's a tax that helps Microsoft drag their competitors down. [20:48] schestowitz-TR no, you can disable 'secure' boot [20:48] DaemonFC If they had time to work on improving their product, it would mean Microsoft would be toast already. [20:49] schestowitz-TR but this shim nonsense lets them gain momentum with normalising the assault on general-purpose computing [20:49] DaemonFC Instead, they have to do all that compatibility work when they already have a format that works. (ODF) [20:49] schestowitz-TR and distros need to suck up to Microsoft for key-signing [20:49] activelow i wouldn't bash mjg59_ for UEFI, instead corporations who enforced it's presence: IBM Wintel [20:49] schestowitz-TR he worked for redhat [20:49] DaemonFC Everything Microsoft does is about dragging their competitors down with Microsoft's dead weight formats and specifications. [20:49] schestowitz-TR amassed almost a million bucks in salaries for doing evil things for some of those companies, even google [20:50] schestowitz-TR nniab [20:50] DaemonFC That way they can force them to squander resources and make it easier to kind of keep up. [20:50] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, Whoever designed the codec part of Windows Media Audio really was overthinking things. [20:50] DaemonFC But then, Vorbis too. [20:51] DaemonFC Arbitrary vector codebooks and floor 0 prevented Vorbis from being more understandable and easy to implement on stuff that already played MP3s. [20:51] activelow question is if fsf among others should have been more aggressive towards malicious IBM Wintel systems, instead of RMS himself posing with an IBM laptop [20:51] activelow which even made myself think IBM laptops may be acceptable, which they are NOT, even with coreboot/libreboot in place [20:51] DaemonFC WMA had no encoder implementation that you'd want to use aside from the one in Windows, and the format's usage of the MDCT was too complex.

[20:54] schestowitz-TR and RHEL on ones they needed support for [20:54] activelow doesn't mean some ARM SBC were bad hardware, it only means ARM is not free and opensource; suffices to say no IBM Wintel system sold in the last 40 years ever had been free and opensource, not a single one of it [20:54] schestowitz-TR like very critical systems] [20:54] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I used CentOS on some desktops.

Naming conflicts prevent kernel to load all of them correctly. [22:09] DaemonFC 2) BIOS's ACPI methods are not serialized and multiple calls the same methods occur. [22:09] DaemonFC I would guess we are seeing scenario 1 here. They are usually harmless because a copy of working SSDT is loaded while duplicated ones are discarded. [22:09] psydruid activelow, that Lemote laptop was actually better and came with a free firmware (PMON2000) out of the box, but maybe he just loves his IBM Wintel hardware [22:09] DaemonFC The later, AE_NOT_FOUND, is the opposite.
