| DaemonFC | Biden will also have the advantages of incumbency. And the fact that Trump told anyone who would listen that he was cheated in the election and they made it so he can't win. | Mar 27 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| DaemonFC | So Trump has depressed his own turnout. Not only did he do that, but he went and ruined two Senate elections in Georgia that the Republicans could have won. | Mar 27 00:00 |
| DaemonFC | He told them stay home and don't vote because they'll just cheat you anyway. | Mar 27 00:00 |
| DaemonFC | His endorsements don't mean as much as he wants people to think they do. | Mar 27 00:01 |
| DaemonFC | He's endorsed Sonny Perdue to be the Governor of Georgia as payback for Brian Kemp refusing to try to overturn the election, but Kemp is polling way ahead. | Mar 27 00:02 |
| DaemonFC | The whole revenge tour thing is wearing thin. | Mar 27 00:02 |
| activelow | are you implying USA/"democrats" spit oil into fire in Ukraine, to escalate, and portray Trump as supporter of evil vladimir? | Mar 27 00:04 |
| MinceR | sounds like somebody wasn't paying attention to the things former president Traffic Cone of Treason said | Mar 27 00:05 |
| DaemonFC | No, I think the goal of the United States is to prolong the war and make the losses on the Russian side as heavy as possible. | Mar 27 00:06 |
| DaemonFC | Supporting Ukraine is secondary. The primary goal is to kill a lot of Russians and to make Putin look like a huge idiot and to boot Russia out of world politics. | Mar 27 00:06 |
| DaemonFC | In a month, the Russians have lost more soldiers than they did in 10 years in Afghanistan. | Mar 27 00:07 |
| activelow | to benefit elections in USA? | Mar 27 00:07 |
| DaemonFC | The longer Putin intends to stay there, the worse things will get for him. | Mar 27 00:07 |
| DaemonFC | The Russians are already admitting, in a backwards way, what their ultimate plans are now. | Mar 27 00:07 |
| activelow | which are? | Mar 27 00:08 |
| DaemonFC | Which is to fall back and try to fortify/prop up the puppet governments they recognized at the start of this whole thing. | Mar 27 00:08 |
| DaemonFC | They've gone from trying to destroy Ukraine as a nation to trying to prop up some separatist regions that are illegitimate. | Mar 27 00:08 |
| DaemonFC | The Russians quite obviously lied. | Mar 27 00:09 |
| activelow | the Minsk agreement insisted on federal elections in those regions | Mar 27 00:09 |
| DaemonFC | As of this morning, they have blown up two major Holocaust memorials. | Mar 27 00:09 |
| activelow | who? | Mar 27 00:09 |
| DaemonFC | Claiming you denazify a country by shelling Holocaust memorials is a little odd. | Mar 27 00:10 |
| MinceR | and in the Budapest Memorandum, terrorussia disclaimed any territorial demands against Ukraine | Mar 27 00:10 |

| DaemonFC | Another fucking fantasy document from Business Insider. | Mar 27 00:33 |
| DaemonFC | "Goldhen large eggs: $0.80" | Mar 27 00:34 |

| DaemonFC | Black beans are not 55 cents, they are 79 cents. | Mar 27 00:36 |
| DaemonFC | Says this article was posted 13 hours ago. | Mar 27 00:37 |
| DaemonFC | These prices are more like Aldi's prices in 2012. | Mar 27 00:37 |
| DaemonFC | I haven't seen a can of beans for 55 cents since at least 4-5 years ago. | Mar 27 00:39 |
| DaemonFC | It was a long time before anyone heard of a Coronavirus. | Mar 27 00:39 |
| DaemonFC | Aldi's prices aren't much better than Walmart's. The only reason I go there is for a few things Walmart doesn't have. | Mar 27 00:40 |

| DaemonFC | Yeah, virologists. | Mar 27 00:41 |

| DaemonFC | "Glover sustained minor non-gunshot injuries from the incident and did not need medical treatment, police said." | Mar 27 02:08 |
| DaemonFC | So the teenagers who stole his car were armed (illegally) and shot him (also illegally). Why aren't the survivors up on trial for car theft and shooting him and illegal gun? | Mar 27 02:09 |

| DaemonFC | I'm looking at the court records. | Mar 27 02:12 |

| schestowitz-TR | *jeff | Mar 27 10:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | (bezos) | Mar 27 10:19 |
| bnchs | fun fact: you can leak a streamer's location if they have an alexa nearby | Mar 27 10:19 |
| bnchs | just say (with text to speech) "alexa, what is my current location" | Mar 27 10:19 |
| matey | right? | Mar 27 10:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | they can get location from the wifi | Mar 27 10:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | triagulation | Mar 27 10:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | or | Mar 27 10:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | phones on that same wifi spot | Mar 27 10:20 |
| matey | :) | Mar 27 10:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | where the phones broadcast location with high accuracy all the time | Mar 27 10:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | alexa, is it true bezos shuts down alexa? | Mar 27 10:21 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 27 10:21 |
| bnchs | but you have to know the wifi list | Mar 27 10:21 |
| bnchs | or be near the person | Mar 27 10:21 |
| bnchs | alexa, order 12 gallons of lube | Mar 27 10:21 |
| bnchs | alexa, call mom | Mar 27 10:22 |
| bnchs | alexa, call me an uber | Mar 27 10:23 |
| bnchs | its fun to mess with other people's alexas (not like they own it) when they're streaming | Mar 27 10:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | alexa: you are uber, get lube for mom | Mar 27 10:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | bnchs: those are fads | Mar 27 10:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | no practical value to them | Mar 27 10:24 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 27 10:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe a little for disabled people | Mar 27 10:24 |
| bnchs | its just a spying device | Mar 27 10:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | but other than that, none... | Mar 27 10:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | products get more expensive, harder to repair | Mar 27 10:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | never mind privacy aspects | Mar 27 10:24 |
| bnchs | maybe like telling you whats your location | Mar 27 10:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | which many people do not mind | Mar 27 10:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | they mind more when it costs them a lot of money | Mar 27 10:25 |
| bnchs | simply hearing a TTS audio saying "alexa, whats my current location" is enough to trip it | Mar 27 10:25 |
| matey | other fads that will be here for a while: credit cards, smartphones, internet-connected appliances | Mar 27 10:26 |
| matey | like appliances that have been in homes since the 1950s or earlier, but now with internet | Mar 27 10:26 |
| bnchs | whats the point of credit cards | Mar 27 10:26 |
| bnchs | making shopping more convenient? | Mar 27 10:27 |
| matey | including nest | Mar 27 10:27 |
| matey | front door cameras probably not going away soon enough either | Mar 27 10:27 |
| bnchs | also allowing you to easily pay for shit | Mar 27 10:27 |
| bnchs | which also means more careless purchases | Mar 27 10:27 |
| bnchs | its easy to swipe credit cards many times | Mar 27 10:28 |
| matey | front door cameras brought to you by porch thieves brought to you by amazon | Mar 27 10:29 |
| bnchs | the security of credit cards depends on a 4-digit code | Mar 27 10:30 |
| matey | its only a matter of time before a porch thief grabs a camera that the recepient was planning to install to watch porch thieves | Mar 27 10:30 |
| bnchs | (btw over 6.5k possible combinations) | Mar 27 10:30 |
| bnchs | 4-digit codes are weak as shit | Mar 27 10:31 |
| bnchs | maybe they should upgrade to 8-digit | Mar 27 10:31 |
| bnchs | or more | Mar 27 10:31 |
| matey | they wont upgrade to anything that makes too much work for people calling in saying they dont know their pin | Mar 27 10:32 |
| matey | i can see a future upgrade to 5 digit pins | Mar 27 10:32 |
| bnchs | yeah so they're stuck on a weak ass security | Mar 27 10:32 |
| bnchs | computers are so powerful these days | Mar 27 10:32 |
| matey | maybe theyll just scrap pins altogether and use nfc | Mar 27 10:32 |
| bnchs | that 6.5k combinations is literally nothing | Mar 27 10:33 |
| bnchs | if you bruteforce multi-threaded | Mar 27 10:33 |

| matey | i know some still use cobol | Mar 27 10:37 |
| bnchs | well they probably have it hardcoded to 4-digit PINs | Mar 27 10:37 |
| matey | im going with my theory for now | Mar 27 10:37 |
| bnchs | instead of having a modular security interface | Mar 27 10:37 |
| matey | its probably all the individual readers that are hard-coded to 4-digit pins | Mar 27 10:37 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 27 10:38 |
| matey | but the reason is: typical user | Mar 27 10:38 |
| bnchs | 5-digit pins can have 59k combinations | Mar 27 10:38 |

| DaemonFC | "The new owner, Lily Pao Kue, is a 30-year-old self-described stock market investor who, according to Zillow records reviewed by the San Francisco Chronicle, purchased the property in February for $1,585,000. | Mar 27 12:04 |
| DaemonFC | According to the Chronicle, Kue has installed security cameras around the property, begun construction work in the building and had a car that belonged to Jones’ friend and roommate removed from the property. | Mar 27 12:04 |
| DaemonFC | In a letter Kue sent to Jones on 18 March, she stated that she assessed he had vacated the property and she would be increasing the current rent – $2,393 – to $5,200 as of 1 July, invoking a Costa-Hawkins petition. | Mar 27 12:04 |
| DaemonFC | Costa-Hawkins is a state law that sets certain requirements for cities with rent control. Under the law, landlords are allowed to raise rent to market rate once a tenant moves out." | Mar 27 12:04 |
| DaemonFC | A 30 year old "stock market investor" bought the place and is trying to claim that he abandoned his apartment, along with other harassment, to drive him out under the city's failed rent control law. | Mar 27 12:05 |
| DaemonFC | Very Progressive City | Mar 27 12:06 |
| DaemonFC | If he fights her, then what happens next obviously is yet another eviction by fire that the city says it doesn't find any evidence of. | Mar 27 12:06 |
| matey | this would be more compelling if he had grown up there and lived there for... how long | Mar 27 12:09 |
| matey | and by more compelling, is the idea that a couple anecdotes regarding a metropolitan area sum up the region? | Mar 27 12:09 |
| matey | dont get me wrong, the conclusion isnt something id necessarily argue with. its the evidence thats amusing. | Mar 27 12:10 |

| bnchs | specifically a lg webos | Mar 27 12:16 |
| matey | awful | Mar 27 12:16 |
| bnchs | well it's a step better than samsung's crap | Mar 27 12:16 |
| bnchs | it can be easily rooted | Mar 27 12:16 |
| bnchs | and i avoided SW updating it | Mar 27 12:16 |
| matey | fair enough i guess | Mar 27 12:17 |
| matey | /me wonders why this stuff has to be built into the tv when the alternative is a tiny box with a cable (like a roku) | Mar 27 12:17 |
| matey | tiny and easier to upgrade | Mar 27 12:18 |

| bnchs | it's probably gonna be as shit as samsung's font-rendering system | Mar 27 12:19 |
| matey | like instead of alexa, a little robot with a bowtie and a towel over his arm comes out to ask if youd like a wine list | Mar 27 12:19 |
| DaemonFC | I wouldn't connect a TV to the Internet. | Mar 27 12:20 |
| DaemonFC | It's becoming hard to buy one that doesn't have "apps", but you can ignore the apps. | Mar 27 12:20 |
| bnchs | i didn't but i guess he did | Mar 27 12:20 |
| matey | /me doesnt own a tv, but at least you can still buy a monitor | Mar 27 12:21 |
| DaemonFC | It's built-in obsolescence. Within 5 years none of the apps work anymore even if you want to use them and you'd have to plug in a stick. | Mar 27 12:21 |
| bnchs | the remote has a fucking microphone | Mar 27 12:21 |
| DaemonFC | I don't know why apps in a TV are a selling point. | Mar 27 12:21 |
| DaemonFC | The screen may work for 20 years, but the apps won't work in 4 or 5. | Mar 27 12:21 |
| matey | its the gentrification of technology | Mar 27 12:21 |
| bnchs | they call it a "magic remote" | Mar 27 12:21 |
| bnchs | aka a wiimote with a microphone inside it | Mar 27 12:22 |

| DaemonFC | To be perfectly honest, if it wasn't for the weight of them, and the fact that they're a power hog, I'd likely still be using a CRT television. | Mar 27 12:22 |
| DaemonFC | It's bad enough whenever you move, you hurt your back with all of the other stuff. | Mar 27 12:22 |
| DaemonFC | Most LED televisions today weigh just 15-20% of what a TV with half the screen size did in the CRT days. | Mar 27 12:23 |

| DaemonFC | If they bought a car that made you use Shell gas stations and pay a 30% fee because you couldn't go to the Marathon gas station across the street becuase your car was designed not to run on it, would they accept this too? | Mar 27 13:06 |
| MinceR | worship of money | Mar 27 13:06 |
| MinceR | corporation has tons of money and therefore it is sacred | Mar 27 13:07 |
| MinceR | and can do no wrong | Mar 27 13:07 |
| matey | If they bought a car that made you use Shell gas stations and pay a 30% fee because you couldn't go to the Marathon gas station across the street becuase your car was designed not to run on it, would they accept this too? <- in the eu, probably | Mar 27 13:07 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, A gas station up in Wisconsin was sued by other gas stations. | Mar 27 13:07 |
| DaemonFC | They are complaining that the station isn't charging as much as they are for gas, and demand $80,000 each in compensation. | Mar 27 13:08 |
| matey | wow | Mar 27 13:08 |
| DaemonFC | The station being sued is a Woodman's grocery store with a gas station in the parking lot. | Mar 27 13:08 |
| DaemonFC | The complaint reads that by charging people 30 cents less per gallon, nobody is going to the BP or Shell stations in the area because they know to go to Woodman's instead. | Mar 27 13:09 |
| matey | obviously theyve never heard of bjs | Mar 27 13:09 |
| matey | (its a chain of stores. i didnt name them) | Mar 27 13:09 |
| matey | (yes thats the name of the chain) | Mar 27 13:10 |
| DaemonFC | You can't make this shit up. They are using a state "unfair pricing" law arguing that people should be forced to pay more for gasoline. | Mar 27 13:10 |
| DaemonFC | The intent of the law appears to be that consumers can sue if they feel they're being gouged. | Mar 27 13:10 |
| matey | apparently it was poorly writtten | Mar 27 13:11 |
| DaemonFC | Maybe a consumer group should sue the BP and Shell stations complaining that they're being gouged and will be damaged if those stations succeed in their lawsuit against Woodman's, and therefore they are each owed free gasoline from BP and Shell as compensation. | Mar 27 13:11 |
| DaemonFC | "We are suing you because we are being harmed by your lawsuit against them." | Mar 27 13:11 |
| DaemonFC | Walmart has some really sad lemons. | Mar 27 13:13 |
| DaemonFC | I got some from Jewel that are twice as big and seedless for just 35 cents more per pound. | Mar 27 13:13 |
| kingoffrance | flexnet was the first hawaii ISP, and then at least had dial up over continental us at least. $9.95, no tech support. pass the savings on to you . anyhow, founder said he had similar accusations from the other ISPs at the time | Mar 27 13:13 |
| kingoffrance | */month. worked fine with bsd/linux/etc. | Mar 27 13:13 |
| DaemonFC | Well, if they really save money by offering no technical support then they're not unfairly pricing the product if it costs less and you don't need the tech support anyway. | Mar 27 13:14 |
| DaemonFC | Microsoft charges less for the version that comes without any tech support. | Mar 27 13:14 |
| kingoffrance | well i just mean, this probably happens more often, just not in public where people find out about it | Mar 27 13:15 |
| DaemonFC | Yes, Microsoft has a tech support hotline. I don't know why. | Mar 27 13:15 |
| kingoffrance | you are forcing me to lower my prices! criminal! | Mar 27 13:15 |
| DaemonFC | Everything they run you through is all of the fix me wizards that don't work, and then wiping the system and starting over, which also sometimes does not work. | Mar 27 13:15 |
| kingoffrance | ohn D. Rockefeller once professed, "competition is a sin." | Mar 27 13:15 |
| DaemonFC | It's a cute idea, fix me wizards all over Windows. | Mar 27 13:16 |
| DaemonFC | They could fix the bugs in the network stack, or.....they could just kick the network stack over and start it again. Tada! | Mar 27 13:16 |
| kingoffrance | its funny how they turned wizard which was probably more dynamic like "ninja" into "robot" | Mar 27 13:16 |
| DaemonFC | Start the wizard! Which wizard? | Mar 27 13:17 |
| DaemonFC | The Grand Imperial Wizard..... | Mar 27 13:17 |
| DaemonFC | Whoops, wrong wizard. | Mar 27 13:17 |
| kingoffrance | the intention i guess was to be "dynamic" but they only have so many "choose your own help desk adventure" paths | Mar 27 13:17 |
| kingoffrance | the times i used to use those, tend to just go in circles and once you exhaust all the paths and didnt solve your issue, "contact your system administrator" or whatever lol | Mar 27 13:17 |
| kingoffrance | i guess that is how tech support works too though. they have to go through script to eliminate all the common things, before you get any real support | Mar 27 13:19 |
| kingoffrance | it does sort of simulate tech support in that sense lol | Mar 27 13:19 |
| matey | after getting drung and playing pin the tail on the donkey, we have determined that the best course of action is to send a reset packet to your modem | Mar 27 13:19 |
| matey | really? thats the only answer youve ever given | Mar 27 13:20 |
| matey | "sure, but its our only excuse to drink at work" | Mar 27 13:20 |
| DaemonFC | I just used the free ISPs. | Mar 27 13:20 |
| kingoffrance | juno? | Mar 27 13:20 |
| DaemonFC | There were various ways of crashing the ad banners or getting your hashed login credentials and using regular Dial Up Networking. | Mar 27 13:20 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah, Juno was one of them. | Mar 27 13:20 |
| DaemonFC | When they all started going under, they spent a couple years limiting you to like 20-30 hours a month. | Mar 27 13:21 |
| DaemonFC | So I signed up for all of them and then I had like 150 hours each month. | Mar 27 13:21 |
| matey | lol | Mar 27 13:21 |
| DaemonFC | When one gave me the boot, I'd just dial into another account. | Mar 27 13:21 |
| DaemonFC | Well, they were meant to be ad supported, but that meant Windows program. | Mar 27 13:22 |
| DaemonFC | So I'd use a program called Dialguard to intercept the phone call and to catch the hashed username and password in Windows, then I knew what to type in to get it working in Mandrake Linux and on my Sega Dreamcast. | Mar 27 13:23 |
| DaemonFC | Then I could just sit there and play Quake III or something online. | Mar 27 13:23 |
| DaemonFC | Microsoft only recently shut down the Internet Games server for Windows Me. For the Internet Checkers and stuff. | Mar 27 13:24 |
| DaemonFC | I don't know why they even had those. | Mar 27 13:24 |
| DaemonFC | They limited the things you could tell the other player to stuff like "Nice move!" because they didn't want it to turn into stories like "49 year old man proposes indecent relationship with child over Microsoft Internet Checkers" so you couldn't even chat with your opponent. | Mar 27 13:26 |
| DaemonFC | And it just connected you to someone randomly, so you didn't know who you were playing against and you couldn't talk to them. | Mar 27 13:26 |
| kingoffrance | yeah i always found that strange | Mar 27 13:28 |
| kingoffrance | stuff like kali back in the day, you'd meet strangers first and chat and decide who to play with | Mar 27 13:28 |
| kingoffrance | this was like speed dating random people in the phone book lol | Mar 27 13:29 |

| DaemonFC | They finally caught him and charged him with 8 felony counts of theft by deception. | Mar 27 13:37 |
| DaemonFC | One of them was interviewed and said he just kept eating and eating. Especially the crab legs. | Mar 27 13:37 |

| matey | funny how they do that | Mar 27 14:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | the other member got so pissed off | Mar 27 14:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | that the criminal that bribes official is not "part" of the same thing | Mar 27 14:05 |
| schestowitz-TR | why would they pay into it? | Mar 27 14:05 |

| schestowitz-TR | even Palm Inc. would not release it | Mar 27 14:06 |

| schestowitz-TR | not just phones | Mar 27 14:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | tablets similarly | Mar 27 14:08 |

| bnchs | they bought it from palm and HP | Mar 27 14:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | because you can swap | Mar 27 14:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | at one point HP made its own distro | Mar 27 14:09 |
| bnchs | they did this to limit the amount of customizability the user can do | Mar 27 14:09 |
| schestowitz-TR | and it seemed like the criminal killed it (MicrosofT) | Mar 27 14:09 |
| schestowitz-TR | lots of mergers and splits in mobile linux | Mar 27 14:09 |
| bnchs | in android-based, the source code of android was free | Mar 27 14:09 |
| bnchs | and widely-available | Mar 27 14:09 |
| bnchs | with many custom ROMs | Mar 27 14:09 |
| schestowitz-TR | tizen, limo, moblin (intel)... | Mar 27 14:10 |
| bnchs | you could port a custom ROM to a device provided you know it's technical details | Mar 27 14:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | Orange had its own too around LinuxWorld 2005 | Mar 27 14:10 |
| bnchs | so they tried to fight this | Mar 27 14:10 |
| bnchs | they made their own OS with rarely any custom ROMs | Mar 27 14:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | Nokia made about 3 Linux-based OSes | Mar 27 14:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | Microsoft killed them al | Mar 27 14:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | the criminals are good at killing things | Mar 27 14:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | not making things | Mar 27 14:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | jolla is still around | Mar 27 14:11 |
| bnchs | the point is | Mar 27 14:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | they now call it sailfishOS | Mar 27 14:11 |
| bnchs | why would LG not use android | Mar 27 14:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | and other names | Mar 27 14:11 |
| bnchs | and even then | Mar 27 14:11 |
| bnchs | why would they keep the source code closed | Mar 27 14:11 |
| *x_ (~x__@4mmu4fx6g3jvs.irc) has joined #techrights | Mar 27 14:11 | |
| bnchs | which brings me to my theory, they did this to get away from android | Mar 27 14:12 |
| bnchs | which had many custom ROMs | Mar 27 14:12 |
| bnchs | and all of them easily portable | Mar 27 14:12 |

| schestowitz-TR | open handset alliance | Mar 27 14:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | around 2008 or 07 | Mar 27 14:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | that was gulag's way of getting the forkers and branchers in the same boat | Mar 27 14:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | instead of them taking aosp and then doing their own thing | Mar 27 14:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | to cause 'fragmentation' | Mar 27 14:16 |
| bnchs | even then, in the webos hacking/cracking community | Mar 27 14:16 |
| bnchs | they only managed to modify the kernel | Mar 27 14:16 |
| bnchs | they couldn't modify more than that before it was proprietary | Mar 27 14:16 |
| bnchs | and maybe inject some "apps" | Mar 27 14:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | app yours | Mar 27 14:17 |
| bnchs | they made their own OSes to gain back control of the users | Mar 27 14:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | wow, this 3-hour video will take 10 hours to encode on 4 cores | Mar 27 14:18 |
| bnchs | and only gave them a small piece of the source code | Mar 27 14:18 |
| bnchs | and maybe the kernel (because GPL and shit) | Mar 27 14:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe I should split the video, process on numerous machines with ffmpeg, than merge the resultant files | Mar 27 14:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | but it would be a lot of work passing around the files | Mar 27 14:18 |

| matey | This is an Ada compiler based on LLVM, connecting the GNAT front-end to the LLVM code generator to generate LLVM bitcode for Ada and to open the LLVM ecosystem to Ada. Note that we are not planning on replacing any existing GNAT port that's based on GCC: this project is meant to provide additional, not replacement, GNAT ports. | Mar 27 14:25 |

| matey | adacore: hold my beer | Mar 27 14:29 |
| bnchs | or is it just a mirror | Mar 27 14:29 |
| matey | also adacore: its fine, we assigned copyright | Mar 27 14:29 |
| matey | its not just a mirror | Mar 27 14:29 |
| matey | i dont care about (actual) mirrors | Mar 27 14:29 |
| *x_ is now known as kingoffrance | Mar 27 14:29 | |
| matey | this isnt new, ive known about this for more than a year. the only new part is gnat-llvm, which i thought was slightly amusing | Mar 27 14:30 |
| matey | but its not a replacement, its just a porn | Mar 27 14:30 |
| matey | port | Mar 27 14:30 |
| matey | maybe unix porn | Mar 27 14:30 |
| bnchs | it's just porn | Mar 27 14:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | mirrors are not a huge deal | Mar 27 14:31 |
| matey | muscle memory and alexy are similarly treacherous | Mar 27 14:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | just do not accept "PRs" | Mar 27 14:31 |
| matey | its not a mirror | Mar 27 14:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | or allow "Issues" | Mar 27 14:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's the same with Twitter as a copy of diaspora posts | Mar 27 14:31 |
| matey | thats the criteria i go by basically | Mar 27 14:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | the problem is, you still receive replies in Twitter | Mar 27 14:31 |
| matey | all you have to do with prs is 1. say please dont send prs in the readme.md | Mar 27 14:32 |
| matey | 2. close prs with "please do not send prs" | Mar 27 14:32 |
| matey | if at that point you still get spammed with prs somehow, dont respond | Mar 27 14:32 |
| matey | then its a strict mirror | Mar 27 14:32 |
| matey | many so-called mirrors are acting like repos | Mar 27 14:33 |
| matey | some strict mirrors are actually strict, thats good | Mar 27 14:33 |
| bnchs | schestowitz-TR, lol that's what they do | Mar 27 14:33 |
| matey | even if the mirror doesnt follow a strick policy, but it looks abandoned, thats alright | Mar 27 14:33 |
| bnchs | they can't disable PRs | Mar 27 14:33 |
| bnchs | so they simply ignore PRs | Mar 27 14:33 |
| matey | they dont ahve to disable prs | Mar 27 14:33 |
| bnchs | or redirect them to the mailing list | Mar 27 14:33 |
| matey | i stop counting it as a mirror if they start using prs | Mar 27 14:34 |
| matey | but if they dont respond (or better, close and redirect) thats not so bad | Mar 27 14:34 |
| matey | the thing is, you cant stop people from mirroring free software | Mar 27 14:35 |
| matey | so it also matters who put it there | Mar 27 14:35 |
| matey | theres no way to script this stuff-- its detective work | Mar 27 14:35 |
| matey | even machine learning wouldnt be terribly useful for this | Mar 27 14:35 |
| matey | of course you could have scripts pick up some of the data for you, but they couldnt evaluate it anyway | Mar 27 14:37 |
| matey | https://www.gnu.org/software/pth/ <- not github based, author is active on github (this year) 227 projects | Mar 27 14:38 |
| matey | so the project is okay, but the developer still thinks github isnt a problem | Mar 27 14:39 |
| matey | we are going to find out i think that MOST gnu devs dont consider github a problem | Mar 27 14:39 |
| matey | which says a lot about gnu imo | Mar 27 14:39 |
| matey | or the state of free software | Mar 27 14:39 |
| matey | historically, it says nothing about gnu. this applies to the state of it today | Mar 27 14:40 |
| kingoffrance | or the state of "free hosting" | Mar 27 14:40 |
| matey | historically gnu is maybe the most important operating system created (unix itself being major competition for this title) | Mar 27 14:40 |
| matey | <kingoffrance> or the state of "free hosting" <- thats letting them off easy | Mar 27 14:40 |
| bnchs | matey: oh my gawd the dev has a github?? | Mar 27 14:41 |
| matey | there have been usable alternatives to github since before the purchase | Mar 27 14:41 |
| bnchs | holy shit this is the state of GNU | Mar 27 14:41 |
| bnchs | gnu is like dying | Mar 27 14:41 |
| matey | straw man. | Mar 27 14:41 |
| bnchs | even though the source code is primarily hosted in GNU | Mar 27 14:41 |
| bnchs | matey: yeah i know | Mar 27 14:41 |
| matey | what im saying is, most gnu devs probably dont think its a problem that microsoft has mostly taken over free software | Mar 27 14:41 |
| matey | because they keep using it. | Mar 27 14:42 |
| kingoffrance | "there have been usable alternatives" sure sure sure but 1) like what 2) why are devs avoiding them | Mar 27 14:42 |
| kingoffrance | what are the justifications? not saying tehy are good or bad "reasons" | Mar 27 14:42 |
| matey | kingoffrance when microsoft bought github, 200,000 people left | Mar 27 14:42 |
| matey | sourceforge, notabug | Mar 27 14:42 |
| matey | savannah is based on sourceforge (an old free version of it) | Mar 27 14:43 |
| bnchs | i would say | Mar 27 14:43 |
| bnchs | sourceforge hosts CVS aswell | Mar 27 14:43 |
| matey | also framagit (now closed) | Mar 27 14:43 |
| kingoffrance | hmm, didnt know that about savannah | Mar 27 14:43 |
| matey | many people left for gitlab | Mar 27 14:43 |
| matey | and now there is sr.ht | Mar 27 14:43 |
| matey | just to add to viable options | Mar 27 14:43 |
| matey | for selt hosting there is also gitea | Mar 27 14:43 |
| matey | self | Mar 27 14:44 |
| matey | and these are just the least stupid examples (imo) | Mar 27 14:44 |
| matey | for stupid examples (but not as stupid as trusting microsoft) there are still more | Mar 27 14:44 |
| kingoffrance | is it ironic wasnt git written because bitkeeper wasnt quite "free" ...and now people jump right into github | Mar 27 14:44 |
| matey | you know savannah isnt only for gnu? its also for nongnu.org | Mar 27 14:44 |
| kingoffrance | s/ironic/repeat of history/ | Mar 27 14:45 |
| matey | if by ironic you mean part of a multi-billion dollar strategy to take over free software, then yes | Mar 27 14:45 |
| bnchs | you need to give money to sourcehut | Mar 27 14:45 |
| bnchs | to put your project there | Mar 27 14:45 |
| bnchs | which i understand | Mar 27 14:45 |
| matey | i didnt know sr.ht was paid | Mar 27 14:45 |
| matey | at least they have a business model | Mar 27 14:45 |
| kingoffrance | well i mean people should have learned the first time | Mar 27 14:45 |
| matey | non-profit hosting works too | Mar 27 14:47 |
| matey | at least in theory | Mar 27 14:47 |
| matey | in practice its holding up better than the organisations themselves | Mar 27 14:47 |
| matey | as long as you dont need them to do guidance or advocacy | Mar 27 14:47 |
| matey | or fundraising | Mar 27 14:47 |
| matey | a lot of projects are very small and their needs are modest | Mar 27 14:49 |
| matey | github is honestly overkill for those | Mar 27 14:49 |
| matey | but when people look to leave they want-- basically microsoft word to do a shopping list | Mar 27 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | [14:33] <matey> they dont ahve to disable prs | Mar 27 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's vendor lockin | Mar 27 14:50 |
| matey | what i meant was | Mar 27 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | Microsoft won't let them turn it off | Mar 27 14:50 |
| matey | if they are unable to disable prs | Mar 27 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | but such mirrors wont' save the github near-monopoly | Mar 27 14:50 |
| matey | then all they have to do is politely refuse them and tell people to use the | Mar 27 14:50 |
| matey | there are existing practices for running a strict mirror | Mar 27 14:50 |
| matey | they work | Mar 27 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | just like twitter cannot, by letting people make "mirrors" there | Mar 27 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | twitter is dying | Mar 27 14:50 |
| matey | people that care keep the mirror strict | Mar 27 14:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | they hide this by funneling remainig traffics to celebs and politicians | Mar 27 14:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | *remaining* | Mar 27 14:51 |
| matey | at any rate, i dont panic about strict mirrors | Mar 27 14:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | to fake "Engagement" levels, in essence by funneling | Mar 27 14:51 |
| matey | but mirrors that turn into secondary repos run the risk of moving to github as the primary repo | Mar 27 14:51 |
| matey | by not standing up to the lock-in | Mar 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | true | Mar 27 14:52 |

| schestowitz-TR | COO | Mar 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | think about it | Mar 27 14:52 |
| matey | linux doesnt have to be inside microsoft-- microsoft is inside linux | Mar 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | that's her job at LF | Mar 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | she is part of the COO | Mar 27 14:52 |
| matey | (theres peanut butter in my chocolate) | Mar 27 14:53 |
| matey | lf is also an attack on git | Mar 27 14:53 |
| matey | sfc is an attack on git | Mar 27 14:53 |
| kingoffrance | well, just put up goatse when someone sends a PR <j/k> | Mar 27 14:53 |
| matey | the fact that prs exist isnt the problem | Mar 27 14:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | sfc is hardly even important | Mar 27 14:53 |
| kingoffrance | theyll get the message quick | Mar 27 14:53 |
| matey | the problem is that while some projects discourage them, most dont care | Mar 27 14:54 |
| matey | sfc is hardly even important <- prove it | Mar 27 14:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | let's work in reverse | Mar 27 14:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | prove they ARE importantt | Mar 27 14:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | they failed to oust RMS | Mar 27 14:54 |
| matey | disputed | Mar 27 14:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | and they through many resources and even their reputation into the bonfire | Mar 27 14:55 |

| matey | deb came from fsf, where she was in charge of membership for ages | Mar 27 14:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | after fsf | Mar 27 14:56 |
| matey | then she defected to sfc and osi | Mar 27 14:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | and now nothing | Mar 27 14:56 |
| matey | or perhaps sfc is the new osi | Mar 27 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | there are two side | Mar 27 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | side a | Mar 27 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | side b | Mar 27 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | if you leave side a to b | Mar 27 14:57 |

| schestowitz-TR | you are done | Mar 27 14:57 |

| kingoffrance | thats why theres "big tech" | Mar 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | giafam? | Mar 27 15:01 |
| kingoffrance | ^ | Mar 27 15:01 |
| matey | <kingoffrance> thats why theres "big tech" <- a term roy insists helps microsoft | Mar 27 15:01 |
| kingoffrance | gets all the heat off ms + gov. | Mar 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | matey: no | Mar 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | I show leaks | Mar 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's a term Microsoft lobbyists promoted | Mar 27 15:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | while Microsoft did lots of crimes | Mar 27 15:02 |
| kingoffrance | i dont know, but i tend to believe schestowitz-TR because it only showed up recently IMO | Mar 27 15:02 |
| kingoffrance | all the "free market" types LOVED ms through the 90s | Mar 27 15:02 |
| kingoffrance | capital success story | Mar 27 15:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | microsoft for exposed | Mar 27 15:02 |
| kingoffrance | evil DOJ is just jealous yo | Mar 27 15:02 |
| kingoffrance | haters hate success | Mar 27 15:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | and then they changed the news cycle | Mar 27 15:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | by faking a "leak" of Vista 11 | Mar 27 15:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | previously unheard of | Mar 27 15:02 |
| kingoffrance | and then out of nowhere...one day came "big tech" narrative | Mar 27 15:02 |
| matey | big tech can be used against microsoft | Mar 27 15:03 |
| matey | just say theyre part of it | Mar 27 15:03 |
| schestowitz-TR | and it was just Vista 10 with some UI tweaks | Mar 27 15:03 |
| kingoffrance | am i to believe all these "business people" suddenly 180ed? dont buy it. | Mar 27 15:03 |
| matey | imo | Mar 27 15:03 |
| kingoffrance | i have no proof, but i tend to believe schestowitz-TR on "big tech" | Mar 27 15:03 |
| matey | o i believe his story about the lobbyists | Mar 27 15:03 |
| kingoffrance | *capitalist | Mar 27 15:03 |
| matey | but the big tech narrative is one that people can get behind, if it can be shown that microsoft is part of it | Mar 27 15:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | i'll get you the links | Mar 27 15:04 |
| matey | just say microsoft IS big tech | Mar 27 15:04 |
| matey | i dont need the links, ive seen them. | Mar 27 15:04 |
| matey | im not disputing the lobbying | Mar 27 15:04 |
| schestowitz | getting the news links | Mar 27 15:04 |
| matey | gafa was specific | Mar 27 15:04 |
| matey | it excluded microsoft | Mar 27 15:05 |

| matey | so gafam pins m microsoft back onto microsofts own diversion | Mar 27 15:05 |
| matey | its silly to think the same cant be done with big tech-- its exactly the same trick | Mar 27 15:05 |
| schestowitz | the videos I did about this include http://techrights.org/2021/06/29/microsoft-behind-big-tech-narrative/ and http://techrights.org/2021/06/24/microsoft-attacking-linux-from-the-inside/ | Mar 27 15:05 |

| kingoffrance | i would say similar trick about "twitter" being "private" ...with their manual of recommendations for gov usage | Mar 27 15:06 |
| kingoffrance | put on your columbo hat matey | Mar 27 15:06 |

| *kingoffrance <slap> i'm private! <slap> 'im public! | Mar 27 15:06 | |
| matey | i think the problem kingoffrance is youre trying to convince me of something i already see | Mar 27 15:07 |
| matey | microsoft is big tech | Mar 27 15:08 |
| matey | it can be used against them just as much as "gafam" is | Mar 27 15:08 |
| matey | originally gafa | Mar 27 15:08 |
| kingoffrance | id say the same with cryptocoin, but may be exceptions | Mar 27 15:08 |
| matey | the thing is, theres a lot of "awareness" (read: exposure) to "big tech" | Mar 27 15:09 |
| matey | beacuse of the lobbying | Mar 27 15:09 |
| matey | that could be hijacked and turned directly against microsoft | Mar 27 15:09 |
| schestowitz-TR | faang is even worse a term | Mar 27 15:09 |
| schestowitz-TR | if you consider what firms are listed and why | Mar 27 15:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's worse than microsoft whataboutism | Mar 27 15:10 |
| matey | /me has never come across faang except here | Mar 27 15:10 |
| matey | i think it was a prototype for gafa | Mar 27 15:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | gafam is me and assange | Mar 27 15:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | we came up with it in twitter | Mar 27 15:10 |
| matey | theres no reason big tech couldnt be used the same way | Mar 27 15:10 |
| matey | microsoft IS big tech | Mar 27 15:11 |
| matey | gates is still one of the 10 richest people on earth | Mar 27 15:11 |
| matey | so is ballmer | Mar 27 15:11 |
| matey | not sure whats keeping nadella | Mar 27 15:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | a lot of it is grossly overvalued stock | Mar 27 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | basically bubble | Mar 27 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | defrauding shareholders | Mar 27 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | the inside traders can win this | Mar 27 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | at the expense of middle class savers | Mar 27 15:12 |
| kingoffrance | i dont disagree matey about turning it back on them, just think its better if people ignore all the catch phrases | Mar 27 15:16 |
| kingoffrance | in the long run | Mar 27 15:16 |
| *kingoffrance whispers marketing people HATE this secret | Mar 27 15:17 | |
| *kingoffrance whispers THEY dont want you to know | Mar 27 15:18 | |
| kingoffrance | its like the "everything is a file" catch phrases lead to straw men attacks | Mar 27 15:19 |
| kingoffrance | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandolini%27s_law someone should make that into an opera or something | Mar 27 15:20 |

| schestowitz-TR | windows registry is also a file | Mar 27 15:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | just not a very good file | Mar 27 15:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | fragile, flaky | Mar 27 15:22 |
| kingoffrance | yeah, exactly! | Mar 27 15:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe many files for the same thing | Mar 27 15:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | iirc, over a decade ago gnome emulated the same broken design | Mar 27 15:22 |
| bnchs | windows registry is a file? | Mar 27 15:24 |
| bnchs | so basically, whats wrong with /etc | Mar 27 15:25 |
| matey | just think its better if people ignore all the catch phrases <- it is better. but we live in a world where most people dont | Mar 27 15:31 |
| matey | the question imo is what to do with that | Mar 27 15:31 |
| matey | "big tech" "actually that just helps microsoft" <- one approach, valid | Mar 27 15:32 |
| matey | "big tech" "including microsoft, yes" <- another approach | Mar 27 15:32 |
| matey | and basically what gafam did | Mar 27 15:32 |
| matey | because gafa was "big tech" beta version | Mar 27 15:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | (backing up breaking machine) | Mar 27 15:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | (ssd) | Mar 27 15:32 |
| matey | iirc, over a decade ago gnome emulated the same broken design <- gconf | Mar 27 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | LMDE 5 and KDE Neon are nice, gnu/linux has gotten super-easy to install and is VERY nice out of the box | Mar 27 15:33 |
| matey | en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gconf-editor | Mar 27 15:33 |
| matey | From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Gconf-editor is a discontinued utility for the GNOME desktop environment used to maintain the old and now discontinued GNOME registry gconf | Mar 27 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | devuan and debian text-based installers are only for pro users | Mar 27 15:33 |
| kingoffrance | you look in the jargon file, you see ibm and the 7 dwarves. then ibm and the bunch. and "dinosaur mating" . that explains "dino babies" -- trying to desparately spin that they are not a dinosaur. | Mar 27 15:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | my LAN over wifi gives me about 1gbytes/mins | Mar 27 15:34 |
| matey | GConf was replaced by GSettings mechanism (provided by GLib) which uses dconf as backend by default if it's available but can use keyfile backend or GConf backend (legacy only); memory backend (RAM only) and null backend | Mar 27 15:34 |
| kingoffrance | point: "big tech' was alway around, nothing new 2) "big tech' will hijack phrases for their own benefit | Mar 27 15:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | big oil, big banks | Mar 27 15:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | banks= bailouit | Mar 27 15:34 |

| schestowitz-TR | oil-subsidy | Mar 27 15:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | what next? | Mar 27 15:34 |
| kingoffrance | you said it best matey : without cause and effect all meaning is lost | Mar 27 15:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | taxpayers-funded and bailed out ICBM and MSFT? | Mar 27 15:35 |
| kingoffrance | its kind of pathetic, why does ibm think the jargon file is a threat lol | Mar 27 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | while the execs cash in big? | Mar 27 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | ballmer, gates, blankfien... | Mar 27 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | *fein | Mar 27 15:35 |
| *zleap (~zleap@user/zleap) has joined #techrights | Mar 27 15:35 | |
| kingoffrance | its like accusations about putin living in 1900 or whatever | Mar 27 15:35 |
| kingoffrance | part of this too i think is appearance of "progress" or "progressivism" has to always be maintaned, doubly so for steps backwards | Mar 27 15:36 |
| kingoffrance | i wouldnt call it "bias" i would call it marketing spin | Mar 27 15:36 |
| matey | where the gconf (gnome registry) gsettings moved to: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html | Mar 27 15:37 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-specifications.freedesktop.org | XDG Base Directory Specification | Mar 27 15:37 | |
| matey | <kingoffrance> its kind of pathetic, why does ibm think the jargon file is a threat lol <- because people thinking for themselves is a threat to marketing (and vice versa) | Mar 27 15:37 |
| kingoffrance | emphasis on "apperance" | Mar 27 15:37 |
| kingoffrance | *appearance | Mar 27 15:37 |
| kingoffrance | trump said the same in not so many words. he was injecting new life into a dead party in his mind | Mar 27 15:38 |
| matey | big surprise, mr systemd is on the board of the gnome registry XDG Base Directory Specification | Mar 27 15:38 |
| kingoffrance | (not going there, just saying it transcends "wings") | Mar 27 15:38 |
| kingoffrance | (or: it can be pulled off with a "conservative" facade as well) | Mar 27 15:38 |
| matey | you can put a face on anything-- look at cars | Mar 27 15:39 |
| matey | o ___ o | Mar 27 15:39 |
| kingoffrance | yeah, that's a good phrase | Mar 27 15:39 |
| kingoffrance | russian dolls lol | Mar 27 15:39 |
| matey | one of then signed the anti stallman letter https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html | Mar 27 15:40 |
| matey | good luck guessing which | Mar 27 15:40 |
| matey | (nope) | Mar 27 15:40 |
| kingoffrance | "so basically, whats wrong with /etc" nothing, just if the original meaning is lost (plaintext, simplicity, pipelines, versus custom binary formats with specialized tools) then it becomes a mess. i do think it breaks at some point, like any abstraction, i.e. plaintext configuration files eventually become their own specialized formats needing special tools. but then IMO that shows it is not the "everything is a file" or not mentality that i | Mar 27 15:44 |
| kingoffrance | s to blame | Mar 27 15:44 |
| kingoffrance | problem is post-utf "there is no plaintext" | Mar 27 15:44 |
| kingoffrance | so it is confusion of tongues now | Mar 27 15:44 |
| kingoffrance | or people mixing metaphors anyway | Mar 27 15:45 |
| matey | theres a fallacy whenever you do this | Mar 27 15:47 |
| kingoffrance | you step in the stream, but the stream has moved on | Mar 27 15:47 |
| matey | language has always mutated-- you seem to base a lot of arguments on the fact that there was an "established" meaning and now its "confused" | Mar 27 15:47 |
| matey | but the established meaning of yesterday was the confused meaning of the age before it | Mar 27 15:48 |
| kingoffrance | sure. | Mar 27 15:48 |
| kingoffrance | i dont deny that | Mar 27 15:48 |
| matey | that doesnt mean it cant get worse-- | Mar 27 15:48 |
| matey | but it was never perfect to begin with | Mar 27 15:48 |
| kingoffrance | ^ | Mar 27 15:48 |
| kingoffrance | so there both always was something wrong with "everything is a file" and something not wrong with it | Mar 27 15:49 |
| matey | granted | Mar 27 15:49 |
| matey | "everything is a file" was either hype, or a nice idea that was abandoned for practical (HOPEFULLY practical) reasons | Mar 27 15:50 |
| kingoffrance | ultimately it is going to be that permitted discoursse window, daemon knows what it is called, i forget | Mar 27 15:50 |
| matey | at best it is a tendency | Mar 27 15:50 |
| matey | maybe a "style" or even an "approach" but certainly not a law | Mar 27 15:50 |
| matey | if we treat styles as law, who do we have to blame but ourselves | Mar 27 15:51 |
| kingoffrance | well it is a moot point, pipelines are long dead | Mar 27 15:51 |
| matey | youre kidding | Mar 27 15:51 |
| kingoffrance | perl/python/ all the scripting languages went another direction | Mar 27 15:51 |
| matey | theyre used daily | Mar 27 15:51 |
| matey | nope | Mar 27 15:51 |
| kingoffrance | perl and python are pipelines? | Mar 27 15:51 |
| kingoffrance | do one thing do it well? | Mar 27 15:52 |
| kingoffrance | ruby? | Mar 27 15:52 |
| matey | oh ok | Mar 27 15:52 |
| matey | i see what you mean | Mar 27 15:52 |
| matey | when you said pipelines | Mar 27 15:52 |
| matey | i assumed | you meant | pipelines | Mar 27 15:52 |
| matey | you mean unix philosophy | Mar 27 15:53 |
| kingoffrance | one sec | Mar 27 15:53 |
| matey | take your time | Mar 27 15:53 |
| kingoffrance | https://harmful.cat-v.org/cat-v/unix_prog_design.pdf | Mar 27 15:54 |
| matey | i already know that url, that guy is a fucking idiot | Mar 27 15:54 |
| kingoffrance | has nothign to do with url | Mar 27 15:54 |
| matey | its the pdf? | Mar 27 15:55 |
| kingoffrance | references are 1984 is the latest | Mar 27 15:55 |
| matey | ok | Mar 27 15:55 |
| matey | oh, pike and kernighan | Mar 27 15:56 |
| matey | i believe pike (moved to google) was the one who pushed for the pipe, back when it was > | Mar 27 15:56 |
| matey | but there was another, mcsomething | Mar 27 15:57 |
| matey | maybe its in the pdf | Mar 27 15:57 |
| kingoffrance | let me mention how many package managers tehre are | Mar 27 15:57 |
| kingoffrance | and draw a parallel with 5 volume controls lol | Mar 27 15:57 |
| kingoffrance | for each of those additional languages | Mar 27 15:57 |
| matey | so all theyre saying is cat got out of hand | Mar 27 15:58 |
| kingoffrance | :) yes, but that was 1980s already out of hand | Mar 27 15:58 |
| kingoffrance | not sure of exact date of that paper | Mar 27 15:58 |
| kingoffrance | it was already fading | Mar 27 15:58 |
| matey | let me make a parallel to refute this. | Mar 27 15:59 |
| matey | its a historical one | Mar 27 15:59 |
| matey | you might even like it | Mar 27 15:59 |
| kingoffrance | why does each language need a package manager? its not for unix philosophy, its becaues tehy watn to run on other OSes besides "unix" | Mar 27 15:59 |
| matey | right | Mar 27 15:59 |
| psydruid | > big tech can be used against microsoft | Mar 27 15:59 |
| psydruid | > just say theyre part of it | Mar 27 15:59 |
| psydruid | exactly what I think too | Mar 27 15:59 |
| MinceR | because every package manager sucks | Mar 27 15:59 |
| matey | but thats a loaded question-- no language needs a package manager, even if its cross platform | Mar 27 16:00 |
| matey | /me thinks mincers answer is the right one | Mar 27 16:00 |
| matey | so there used to be this theory-- which later suited the sensibilities of nationalist idiots | Mar 27 16:01 |
| matey | that aryans came and conquored all the people of the indus valley | Mar 27 16:01 |
| matey | with their superior culture and technology and weapons and warfare etc. | Mar 27 16:01 |
| matey | came in, wiped out everyone | Mar 27 16:01 |
| matey | took over, established the foundations of modern indian civilisation | Mar 27 16:01 |
| matey | brought hinduism (which didnt exist then, but what is now hinduism, etc) | Mar 27 16:02 |
| MinceR | nationalist idiots forgot that the aryans were brown people too | Mar 27 16:02 |
| matey | well yeah but i mean brown nationalist idiots, not even the nazis (who bought the same story but couldnt afford technicolor because there was a war on) | Mar 27 16:02 |
| matey | india has nationalists too, theyre a bit wrapped up in it at the moment | Mar 27 16:03 |
| kingoffrance | likewise, lets quote python: We needed a better way to do system administration than by writing either C programs or Bourne shell scripts, since Amoeba had its own system call interface which wasn’t easily accessible from the Bourne shel | Mar 27 16:03 |
| matey | only "problem" is, they did genetic research on this thoery | Mar 27 16:03 |
| matey | lets NEVER quote python. youd get better design ideas from any raving lunatic reeking of booze on the side of the road than youd get from the "stewards" of modern python | Mar 27 16:04 |
| matey | id sooner use perl than whats become of python | Mar 27 16:04 |
| kingoffrance | im not saying that is bad, im saying amoeba was a specific unix-like thing, that they didnt think shell was a good fit for | Mar 27 16:05 |
| matey | anyway, the genetic makeup doesnt support the "superior aryan" theory | Mar 27 16:05 |
| kingoffrance | which is not to say that was even the "wrong" decision, just i dont see unix philosophy had anything to do with it either way | Mar 27 16:05 |
| matey | they didnt wipe out the ancestors | Mar 27 16:05 |
| matey | they mingled. | Mar 27 16:05 |
| kingoffrance | yes, unix is a mingling of prior ideas? | Mar 27 16:05 |
| matey | the people of the indus valley are the descendants of both the aryans and the people they "wiped out" | Mar 27 16:05 |
| matey | unix has mingled with other ideas-- its not wiped out at all | Mar 27 16:06 |
| matey | granted it has mingled with some pretty bad ideas sometimes | Mar 27 16:06 |
| matey | but if i wanted to use version 1, id be working on reviving version 1 | Mar 27 16:07 |
| matey | thats not a goal of mine | Mar 27 16:07 |
| matey | i like SOME of the ideas that have come along since then | Mar 27 16:07 |
| matey | some of them are awful too | Mar 27 16:07 |
| matey | some of them should be thrown out-- and we should have choices | Mar 27 16:07 |
| matey | but MOST of the messes are created by people trying to take us from what works for us | Mar 27 16:08 |
| matey | and dragging us through fad after fad using market pressure | Mar 27 16:08 |
| matey | and obviously im against that | Mar 27 16:08 |
| kingoffrance | "why does each language need a package manager?" i should add, this is another reason "why cannot rust or <insert lang here> speak its native tongue at ABI level?" is ridiculous. people dont even agree on high level "package managers" where it should be easier to 'abstract", let alone low level things | Mar 27 16:08 |
| matey | freedom 3 should make us immune to that! https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/blogs/lxo/pub/new-dawn.en.html | Mar 27 16:08 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.fsfla.org | ::[FSFLA]:: A New Dawn for Software Freedom | Mar 27 16:09 | |
| matey | but freedom 3 is a bit more fragile than the fsf admits (or even understands) | Mar 27 16:09 |
| matey | in fact the unix philosophy (which rms openly never gave a shit about) is a boon to freedom 3 | Mar 27 16:09 |
| matey | and without it, freedom 3 may (continue to) suffer | Mar 27 16:09 |
| psydruid | people in Europe are also descendants of indigenous populations and people closely related to the Aryans who settled in India | Mar 27 16:09 |
| psydruid | surprise, people mingled | Mar 27 16:10 |
| matey | yes but the story went: they got wiped out | Mar 27 16:10 |
| matey | conquored-- killed off | Mar 27 16:10 |
| kingoffrance | yes, philosophically that seems to always be a lie | Mar 27 16:10 |
| matey | not "raised families together"-- thats what happened, its not the story though | Mar 27 16:10 |
| kingoffrance | thats the ouroborus dragon lol | Mar 27 16:10 |
| kingoffrance | he does that lol | Mar 27 16:10 |
| matey | the thing is, unix philosophy can be brought back to fight for freedom 3 | Mar 27 16:11 |
| matey | it doesnt have to be pure, it simply doesnt have to sit in the shadow of corporate bullshit | Mar 27 16:11 |
| matey | corporations LOVED unix | Mar 27 16:11 |
| matey | of course they turned it into corporate bullshit | Mar 27 16:11 |
| matey | and the irony being that-- unix was bell labs and very corporate (but) | Mar 27 16:12 |
| matey | it was and it wasnt | Mar 27 16:12 |
| matey | it was a small team, first of all | Mar 27 16:12 |
| matey | second, it was a small team working with a system designed to be easy to port (because at&t couldnt do computers as a business) | Mar 27 16:12 |
| matey | and when it got too big, other small teams formed (like at berkeley) | Mar 27 16:13 |
| matey | and the bsd team was smaller than the bell labs team | Mar 27 16:13 |
| kingoffrance | i never saved the "interview" but some claim they were told they can only design on a chalkboard/whiteboard, no implementing, because multics didnt go well. and they took their computers away from them. and they had to borrow something from psychology dept. IIRC? porting a game too. later, "word processing" was spun as this was all "planned". | Mar 27 16:13 |
| *psydruid read all about Max Müller's "theories" years ago | Mar 27 16:14 | |
| matey | in the 80s, ritchie and thompson actually adopted a bsd codebase for research unix | Mar 27 16:15 |
| matey | so bsd was both downstream and upstream | Mar 27 16:15 |
| matey | not to mention that one of them went on sabbatical to ASSIST bsd | Mar 27 16:15 |
| kingoffrance | a fiction book claims alexander the great landed somewhere, men where weary and just wanted to go home to their families but he wanted more land, so he burned their own ships (secretly) " oh no, they destroyed our ships! no going back" lol you want an OS? take away their computers and tell them no coding allowed lol reverse psychology lol | Mar 27 16:15 |
| kingoffrance | that's like warcraft "bloodlust" spell lol | Mar 27 16:15 |

| psydruid | a minor king in India | Mar 27 16:16 |
| psydruid | or maybe another one, but this one was at the end of his reign | Mar 27 16:17 |
| matey | multics went better than the story is told, but a lot of people left the project, including at&t | Mar 27 16:17 |
| matey | i dont know which department they got the pdp 7 from, but it wasnt being used | Mar 27 16:18 |
| matey | to get a better pdp, they sold the idea of text formatting software to the legal department | Mar 27 16:18 |
| psydruid | I suspect Multics would work just fine with today's hardware resources | Mar 27 16:18 |
| matey | the last multics instllation went offline in 2000-something | Mar 27 16:19 |
| matey | it was used in military industrial applications | Mar 27 16:19 |
| matey | like air traffic control that sort of thing | Mar 27 16:19 |
| matey | the reason they went to the legal department is the legal department is like congress | Mar 27 16:20 |
| matey | they can pretty much write their own budget | Mar 27 16:20 |
| matey | so if they wanted software developed, all they had to do was ask for the funds | Mar 27 16:20 |
| matey | today theres an it department so going to legal wouldnt work | Mar 27 16:22 |
| kingoffrance | there's an emulator... | Mar 27 16:22 |
| matey | you can login to a unix system v machine and use it from the term | Mar 27 16:22 |
| matey | its at one of the computing museums (not the one in ukraine) | Mar 27 16:23 |
| matey | i think its a british one | Mar 27 16:23 |
| matey | i think the machine itself is an at&t mini computer | Mar 27 16:25 |
| matey | possibly 32bit | Mar 27 16:25 |
| psydruid | my thinking is more along the lines that the good concepts in Multics could be used if they are still relevant | Mar 27 16:27 |
| matey | this is actually something paul allen funded | Mar 27 16:28 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.livingcomputers.org | LCM+L - Online Systems | Mar 27 16:28 | |
| psydruid | and not so much Multics itself | Mar 27 16:28 |
| matey | <psydruid> my thinking is more along the lines that the good concepts in Multics could be used if they are still relevant <- do you assume thyere better than the ones in unix? | Mar 27 16:28 |

| psydruid | I want to read a book I have downloaded about Multics to find out more about it and to see if they might be better than those in Unix | Mar 27 16:29 |

| matey | my bet is you will find that unix simplified ideas that multics explored, and ritchie and thompson streamlined some things | Mar 27 16:32 |
| matey | but of course if you learn something interesting from the book, i hope youll mention it | Mar 27 16:32 |
| psydruid | there is only one way of finding out | Mar 27 16:33 |
| matey | multics was a beast. from what ive learned about it, im not sure its more useful than unix | Mar 27 16:33 |
| matey | but yes, i thought it was worth exploring, no reason you shouldnt explore it too | Mar 27 16:33 |
| matey | sometimes going back farther gives just ONE really good idea that the "newer stuff" didnt need to abandon | Mar 27 16:33 |
| psydruid | maybe it was too complex for its time | Mar 27 16:34 |
| matey | i still think its cool (despite vax being a mess) that you could move running processes | Mar 27 16:34 |
| matey | from one machine to another | Mar 27 16:34 |
| matey | im sceptical that the complexity of multics was necessary at all | Mar 27 16:35 |
| psydruid | I'm not sure OpenVMS can do that | Mar 27 16:35 |
| psydruid | imagine moving processes from a machine using one architecture to a machine using another architecture | Mar 27 16:36 |
| kingoffrance | ^ | Mar 27 16:36 |
| kingoffrance | that seems to have been abandoned, in favor of just migrating a whole vm | Mar 27 16:36 |
| kingoffrance | for better or worse, modern stuff seems to have little interest in that level of granularity | Mar 27 16:37 |
| kingoffrance | the "whole vm" is arguably simpler in some ways, or arguably it just avoids issues | Mar 27 16:38 |
| matey | <kingoffrance> that seems to have been abandoned, in favor of just migrating a whole vm <- this is what im finding / summising too | Mar 27 16:39 |
| matey | i dont know what commands vms used for process management, or what terms were used for moving processes | Mar 27 16:40 |
| matey | so its very hard to determine if those are available in openvms | Mar 27 16:40 |
| matey | if you move a whole vm, and you shut down the machine it was running on, no problem | Mar 27 16:40 |
| psydruid | I couldn't even get a hobbyist licence for it, so that's that | Mar 27 16:40 |
| matey | if you move all the necessary processes but one, and shut down the machine that was hosting them... | Mar 27 16:41 |
| psydruid | as if they want knowledge about it to remain obscure | Mar 27 16:41 |
| matey | kingoffrance raises the point that theyve managed to do this in a more modern and perhaps practical way with a vm | Mar 27 16:41 |
| matey | or as if it simply isnt as useful as it once was | Mar 27 16:42 |
| matey | tbh i think if you can write an os, you could make it so the processes could be tranferred over the network | Mar 27 16:42 |
| matey | remember that move really means copy and delete | Mar 27 16:42 |
| matey | so to move a process, youd actually copy it to another host | Mar 27 16:42 |
| *techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Mar 27 16:42 | |

| psydruid | that's probably the case, but it would be nice if there was at least some literature comparing the approaches | Mar 27 16:43 |
| matey | and how do you copy a process? you copy the memory it uses, then you copy the pointers to it | Mar 27 16:43 |
| matey | it would be nice <- sure, but the documentation probably gives you the information you need | Mar 27 16:43 |
| matey | if you can find it | Mar 27 16:43 |

| *techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@pumv3cb2rfinu.irc) has joined #techrights | Mar 27 16:50 | |
| psydruid | it's because of that emulated machine that I know that some of the code in Debian has issues with alignment | Mar 27 16:50 |
| matey | AlphaVM does not actually emulate OpenVMS. AlphaVM emulates the DEC Alpha system hardware. As the result OpenVMS runs on the virtual hardware unmodified. Since the emulated hardware is Alpha, it is OpenVMS/AXP that runs on AlphaVM. In fact, for the user it may look like OpenVMS runs on the Intel x86-64 based hardware. | Mar 27 16:51 |
| matey | www0.mi.infn.it/~calcolo/OpenVMS/ssb71/6459/6459p012.htm | Mar 27 16:52 |
| matey | cause severe performance degradation on Alpha systems, DEC C for OpenVMS Alpha systems aligns data on natural boundaries by default. To override this feature and retain VAX (packed) alignment, specify the # pragma nomember_alignment preprocessor directive in your source file or use the /NOMEMBER_ALIGNMENT command line qualifier. | Mar 27 16:52 |

| matey | oop is actually useful for some things. the main problem is that some things != all things | Mar 27 17:14 |
| *psydroid9 tends to think that there is a universal abi of language that subsequently gets mapped to natural languages in an imperfect way | Mar 27 17:14 | |

| matey | GNU Pascal (GPC) is the official Pascal compiler of the GNU project. It is compatible to Standard Pascal as defined in ISO 7185, and it implements "most" of the ISO 10206 Extended Pascal standard. Unlike Free Pascal, GPC is not self-hosted, i.e. it is not able to translate and build itself. | Mar 27 18:00 |
| matey | im not sure you would want every gnu compile to be self hosted (though for c and c++ at least, it would be nice if c could compile them) | Mar 27 18:01 |
| matey | every compiler that self hosts needs to be bootstrapped (as far as i know) | Mar 27 18:01 |
| matey | unless perhaps the compiler is written in a subset of itself which is available a stub for another language for boostrapping | Mar 27 18:02 |
| matey | like theres a mini pascal compiler implemented in c that can be used to compile the latest (Self hostiing) pascal compiler | Mar 27 18:03 |
| matey | youd maintain the pascal compiler then each time you came out with a new one youd make sure the stub could still bootstrap it | Mar 27 18:04 |

| matey | bnchs other than the caveat i already mentioned, why not? | Mar 27 18:47 |

| bnchs | but | Mar 27 18:47 |
| bnchs | what if the new version of compiler | Mar 27 18:48 |
| bnchs | introduces a new feature that it will use in the newer version | Mar 27 18:48 |
| matey | okay so this begs the question | Mar 27 18:49 |
| matey | if the compiler isnt self hosting, what should it be implemented in | Mar 27 18:49 |
| bnchs | c | Mar 27 18:50 |
| matey | so basically just what i imagined | Mar 27 18:50 |
| matey | youre better off implementing a compiler in c (or a language implemented in c) | Mar 27 18:50 |
| matey | because then you only have to bootstrap the compiler | Mar 27 18:50 |
| matey | rather then you only have to bootstrap the c compiler | Mar 27 18:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | iirc, matlab is written inc | Mar 27 18:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | *in c | Mar 27 18:51 |
| matey | you dont have to bootstrap each language that is implemented with a | Mar 27 18:51 |
| matey | most languages are implemented in c i think | Mar 27 18:51 |
| matey | certainly not all | Mar 27 18:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | but c still needs a compiler, and those need tokenisers | Mar 27 18:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | like lex and yacc | Mar 27 18:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | or flex | Mar 27 18:51 |
| bnchs | yes | Mar 27 18:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | so parsers are another layer | Mar 27 18:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | and I'm not sure if they're based on c themselves or some machine code | Mar 27 18:52 |
| matey | they wouldnt be based on machine code | Mar 27 18:52 |
| bnchs | matey: rust compiler is written in rust | Mar 27 18:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | this is where I deplore some absolutists | Mar 27 18:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | they go down to silicon | Mar 27 18:52 |
| bnchs | and this has caused some problems | Mar 27 18:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | like physically silicon | Mar 27 18:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | not semi-conductors | Mar 27 18:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | what if... | Mar 27 18:52 |
| bnchs | which made someone | Mar 27 18:52 |
| bnchs | make a C++ bootstrap compiler for rust | Mar 27 18:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | yes, well... you cannot check your wafer with a microscope, not usefully anyway | Mar 27 18:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | btw, I have a dump question | Mar 27 18:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | how was rust developed? | Mar 27 18:53 |
| matey | you cannot check your wafer with a microscope, not usefully anyway <- nor would you | Mar 27 18:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | *dumb question, sort of | Mar 27 18:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | remember gcc was "made on unix" | Mar 27 18:53 |
| matey | you would check the pattern that goes to the lithograph before it goes to the silicon | Mar 27 18:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | and gnu emacs was developed on some proprietary editor | Mar 27 18:54 |
| bnchs | schestowitz-TR, yeah uhhh | Mar 27 18:54 |
| matey | and theres a difference between autonomy and "absolutism" | Mar 27 18:54 |
| matey | for example, if you want a chip intel no longer makes | Mar 27 18:54 |
| matey | whether you can check it or not isnt the point, intel doesnt make it-- you want more, someone else has to make them | Mar 27 18:54 |
| matey | thats autonomy, its got nothing to do with absolutism | Mar 27 18:55 |
| matey | like physically silicon not semi-conductors <- ... | Mar 27 18:55 |
| bnchs | thats a good question | Mar 27 18:56 |
| bnchs | i think it was written in C++ | Mar 27 18:56 |
| bnchs | and then they rewrote it all in rust | Mar 27 18:56 |
| bnchs | to make it self-hosting | Mar 27 18:56 |
| *zombie (~59f9318f@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has left #techrights | Mar 27 18:57 | |
| matey | implementing an unstable language that constantly wants things rewritten in itself was a pretty silly thing to do | Mar 27 18:58 |
| matey | rust is a compiler for calvinball | Mar 27 18:58 |
| bnchs | and thats the problem | Mar 27 18:58 |
| bnchs | you wanna compile rust? | Mar 27 18:58 |

| matey | the method i outlined for a self hosting compiler was saner | Mar 27 18:59 |
| kingoffrance | i thought we agreed all there is is calvinball? "language has always mutated" | Mar 27 18:59 |
| matey | but there are very few advantages to a self-hosting compiler | Mar 27 18:59 |
| bnchs | writing the compiler in C? | Mar 27 18:59 |
| bnchs | making it easier to compile that way? | Mar 27 18:59 |
| bnchs | nah thats boring | Mar 27 18:59 |
| matey | boring = reliable | Mar 27 19:00 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 27 19:01 |
| bnchs | but do you really want rust fanatics breathing down your neck | Mar 27 19:01 |
| bnchs | "memory unsafe language!!!!" | Mar 27 19:01 |
| matey | who wants a memory safe langauge implemented in an implementation designed to forget itself? | Mar 27 19:02 |
| kingoffrance | thats pretty much it | Mar 27 19:02 |
| kingoffrance | when i do this its perfectionm, when you do same exact thing its a crime | Mar 27 19:02 |
| matey | <kingoffrance> i thought we agreed all there is is calvinball? "language has always mutated" <- we also ceded that there are different levels of stability and instability | Mar 27 19:02 |
| matey | order is relative stability and chaos is unacceptable levels of instability | Mar 27 19:03 |
| kingoffrance | nah, theres only instability covered up with veneer of "order". humans are infinitely fallible | Mar 27 19:03 |
| kingoffrance | i am with "commies" on this | Mar 27 19:03 |
| matey | humans are infinitely fallible <- okay, prove it :) | Mar 27 19:03 |

| *matey has quit (Quit) | Mar 27 19:18 | |
| bnchs | kingoffrance, you mean writing their compiler in rust? | Mar 27 19:19 |
| bnchs | well that is gonna be true | Mar 27 19:19 |
| bnchs | a big change in the syntax is enough to make the compiler uncompilable | Mar 27 19:20 |
| *inky has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Mar 27 19:20 | |

| kingoffrance | "No, there is no sound formal specification of Rust at present. It will come when the language stabilises further" <-- when it stabilises further, they will 180 | Mar 27 19:20 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 27 19:21 |
| kingoffrance | broken record, this makes it even more ridiculous "rust speaking its native tongue at abi level" | Mar 27 19:22 |
| bnchs | they're doing a big mistake self-hosting their compiler this early | Mar 27 19:22 |
| bnchs | it will make the compiler rely on deprecated features | Mar 27 19:22 |
| kingoffrance | they hate c because they are similar on that point | Mar 27 19:22 |
| bnchs | thus causing more headaches in the development | Mar 27 19:22 |
| kingoffrance | love is blind :D | Mar 27 19:22 |
| kingoffrance | sorry lol | Mar 27 19:22 |
| bnchs | they'll either make the compiler tolerate deprecated crap to compile itself | Mar 27 19:22 |

| DaemonFC | She mentioned "Distinguished Engineer". | Mar 27 19:30 |

| DaemonFC | mjg59_, I guess you'd know about Microsoft since they're the only ones who like your Shitter posts for the most part. | Mar 27 20:28 |
| DaemonFC | Anyway, I'm sure you're aware that most of their employees are permatemps though. | Mar 27 20:28 |
| DaemonFC | Permatemps, outsourced. They fired the entire US-based IE team after IE 6 went out. | Mar 27 20:29 |
| techrights-news | Since my earlier days with Fedora I've always disliked how nepumok or baloo or akonadi were slaughtering or clobbering away at my systems as soon I put some file on them. Sometimes it takes a while to identify those culprits too (and store-related process are hard to permanently suspend). It makes GNU/Linux look bad. | Mar 27 20:29 |
| DaemonFC | It was maintained by China after that. | Mar 27 20:29 |
| DaemonFC | So this is all nothing new. | Mar 27 20:29 |
| mjg59_ | DaemonFC: Is your claim that someone with a "Distinguished Engineer" title at Microsoft is actually a temp? | Mar 27 20:30 |
| DaemonFC | I suppose if you maintain the worst browser in the world and it's full of lulz and security hazards, you just want cheap labor anyway. | Mar 27 20:30 |
| DaemonFC | <mjg59_> DaemonFC: Is your claim that someone with a "Distinguished Engineer" title at Microsoft is actually a temp? | Mar 27 20:30 |
| DaemonFC | No. | Mar 27 20:30 |
| mjg59_ | Ok | Mar 27 20:30 |
| mjg59_ | So what's the relevance | Mar 27 20:30 |
| DaemonFC | I never said that. I said most people who work there are either permatemps or outsourced. | Mar 27 20:30 |
| DaemonFC | Microsoft doesn't care about code quality. | Mar 27 20:31 |
| mjg59_ | Right. I'm asking why that's relevant at all to the conversation | Mar 27 20:31 |
| DaemonFC | The last version of Windows that even kind of worked okay was Windows 2000. | Mar 27 20:31 |
| DaemonFC | When they "contributed" stuff that only works with their proprietary shit anyway to the Linux kernel, it was all seriously broken too. | Mar 27 20:31 |
| DaemonFC | They funneled money through to Novell (at the time) to patch it all up, and I've honestly never seen a worse kernel module in my life than hv, even in -staging. | Mar 27 20:32 |
| DaemonFC | And Microsoft had been shipping that to their customers in the shape it was in, and only released it eventually because of GPL violations. | Mar 27 20:32 |
| DaemonFC | From what they've released as "open source" and from what's leaked out over the years, I mean, it's just hideous. | Mar 27 20:33 |
| DaemonFC | And to have "Fellow" and "Distinguished" or even "Engineer" as a job title there is funny. | Mar 27 20:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | don't chu know fancy job titles are one day to compensate for law salary? | Mar 27 20:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | "sure, we'll pay you $50k a year, but WATCH THIS TITLE" | Mar 27 20:34 |
| DaemonFC | IE for UNIX was even worse than anything else they've ever done before. They don't know how to port software now, and it was even worse then. | Mar 27 20:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | "the ladies will be soooo impressed" | Mar 27 20:34 |
| DaemonFC | If you had a different patch configuration on Solaris, IE would just crash and often take the kernel down with it. | Mar 27 20:34 |
| DaemonFC | So I mean, userspace software doing THAT everyone. | Mar 27 20:34 |
| DaemonFC | It actually comes in the notes for IE for Solaris which patches you need and it says if you have more patches, things can go wrong. | Mar 27 20:35 |
| DaemonFC | So some guy reviewing old software on YouTube had to figure out how to construct the exact environment IE needed to run, and along the way he had it kernel panic Solaris when he loaded Internet Explorer. | Mar 27 20:35 |
| DaemonFC | There's nothing like that going on today in GNU/Linux and I'm not even sure anyone but Microsoft managed it back then. | Mar 27 20:36 |
| techrights-news | Welcome to KDE in 2022. Working desktops, two HD displays, widgets and all at just 500MB of RAM. A boss recently insinuated that any machine with less than 8GB of RAM is unfit for work. I had a good laugh at that... | Mar 27 20:38 |
| DaemonFC | There's a very good reason to keep Microsoft repos out of your GNU/Linux distribution. Like General O'Neill said in an episode of Stargate SG-1, "Well, we could just toss a nuke down the hatch.". Replicators episode, I think. Anyway, Microsoft has done some truly retarded shit with their "Linux" packaging that has ruined the entire OS. | Mar 27 20:38 |
| DaemonFC | So giving them a backdoor into your system to install whatever such packages they want is maybe perhaps not the greatest idea. | Mar 27 20:38 |
| *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Mar 27 20:39 | |
| DaemonFC | So people should (1) avoid distros that come with these repos, (2) if they really must use them, delete Microsoft's repos and signing keys and PURGE Microsoft programs that came on the system, and (3) don't ever install anything from Microsoft yourself. | Mar 27 20:40 |
| *inky has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Mar 27 20:40 | |

| mjg59_ | schestowitz-TR: Total compensation for a distinguished engineer at Microsoft can easily be >$1,000,000 | Mar 27 20:42 |
| DaemonFC | Isn't the "Raspberry Pi Foundation" making money from the hardware sales? Do they really need a $20,000 one-off payment from Microsoft to backdoor the official OS for the thing? | Mar 27 20:42 |
| DaemonFC | <mjg59_> schestowitz-TR: Total compensation for a distinguished engineer at Microsoft can easily be >$1,000,000 | Mar 27 20:42 |

| schestowitz-TR | not much to do with that money | Mar 27 20:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | you die working for criminals | Mar 27 20:43 |
| DaemonFC | Finally a salary for the Very Progressive Bay Area, where they just doubled the rent on an AIDS victim to drive him out of his home for the last 50 years. | Mar 27 20:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | and you lack the time to enjoy life | Mar 27 20:43 |
| DaemonFC | Matt Gulag says people there "get it". | Mar 27 20:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | that compensation level also assumes US | Mar 27 20:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | ICBM outsources the jobs | Mar 27 20:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | and so the median pay at IBM is 7k a year, IIRC | Mar 27 20:43 |

| schestowitz-TR | after tax it can be like 45k | Mar 27 20:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | median, inc. senior workers and managers | Mar 27 20:44 |
| DaemonFC | $3,000 a month wasn't "enough". And if his 30 year old "stock investor" landlord doesn't manage to harass and litigate him out or get her $6,000 a month rent approved and chase him out that way despite the rent control law.... | Mar 27 20:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | of course they also kick out older workers | Mar 27 20:44 |
| DaemonFC | Eviction by fire, and then the city will pretend to look into it and quietly let the issue die. | Mar 27 20:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | so they have a decade or two to cash in | Mar 27 20:44 |

| bnchs | but never what makes it "good" | Mar 27 20:47 |
| DaemonFC | So, arson, insurance fraud, and violating rent control. | Mar 27 20:48 |

| mjg59_ | California has stronger tenants rights than most states do, but the refusal to allow meaningful quantities of new construction means that the landlords are in a strong position to fuck people over | Mar 27 20:51 |
| DaemonFC | Because SHE was insane. | Mar 27 20:51 |
| *alextee (~alextee@dexiw29c8htcg.irc) has joined #techrights | Mar 27 20:51 | |
| bnchs__ | oh a she | Mar 27 20:52 |
| mjg59_ | Anyway, not tech related | Mar 27 20:52 |
| DaemonFC | And then on my way out, I took pictures of all the shit she wasn't fixing and the city shut her down and told her no more leases anywhere until it was fixed to code. | Mar 27 20:52 |
| bnchs__ | DaemonFC, why in fact? | Mar 27 20:52 |
| DaemonFC | Fined her $5,500. | Mar 27 20:52 |
| bnchs__ | why was she insane? | Mar 27 20:52 |
| DaemonFC | Crazy/Mean | Mar 27 20:52 |
| bnchs__ | i mean why was she acting insane against you | Mar 27 20:52 |
| DaemonFC | Usual "greedy landlord fuck" stuff going on though. | Mar 27 20:52 |
| DaemonFC | Oh, she demanded in my apartment every day for like 5 months over a malfunctioning doorbell. | Mar 27 20:53 |
| DaemonFC | She paid some stupid idiot to fuck it up worse than before each time. | Mar 27 20:53 |
| *alextee has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Mar 27 20:53 | |
| bnchs__ | wow what a bitch | Mar 27 20:53 |
| DaemonFC | Then she stopped notifying us she'd be out, and then she let herself in one day and I woke up with her standing over me in my bedroom. | Mar 27 20:53 |
| DaemonFC | I told her that the door in back was broken and wouldn't shut. She didn't replace a $50 part. | Mar 27 20:54 |
| bnchs__ | wtf | Mar 27 20:54 |
| bnchs__ | now thats where i draw it | Mar 27 20:54 |
| DaemonFC | So 6 months later, the upstairs people left the door open when it was 26 degrees below zero out. | Mar 27 20:54 |
| DaemonFC | And the pipes exploded. | Mar 27 20:54 |
| bnchs__ | i wouldn't like to wake up with my landlord standing over me | Mar 27 20:54 |
| DaemonFC | So I called her, and she paid a plumber emergency rates to come out, then she didn't fix the door. | Mar 27 20:54 |
| DaemonFC | And it happened again. | Mar 27 20:54 |
| DaemonFC | And she accused me of sabotaging her building. | Mar 27 20:54 |
| bnchs__ | wow | Mar 27 20:55 |
| DaemonFC | Then when I moved out, she started calling me at 2-3 AM threatening that her husband was a lawyer and I told her "If you don't leave me alone, you're about to have a bigger problem than a month of unpaid rent after you forced us to find another apartment...". | Mar 27 20:56 |
| DaemonFC | And she kept pushing, so she did. | Mar 27 20:56 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Mar 27 20:56 |
| DaemonFC | Anyway, never did hear from her after the city went in and shut her down. | Mar 27 20:56 |
| DaemonFC | I'm guessing that she probably had to spend at least $12,000 in fines and repairs to get her license to rent apartments out back from the city, maybe more. I don't know what all was wrong with the place, but I took a lot of pictures of the obvious stuff. | Mar 27 20:57 |
| DaemonFC | Then the city went after her with the anti-slumlord law. | Mar 27 20:58 |
| DaemonFC | I reported her also for violating the Heat Ordinance. | Mar 27 20:58 |
| DaemonFC | It says between November and May your landlord must keep the unit at a minimum of 68 F during the day and 66 at night. | Mar 27 20:58 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.irishexaminer.com | Government to back bill banning sex for rent following 'Irish Examiner' probe | Mar 27 21:00 | |
| DaemonFC | Simply put, constructive eviction means that the tenant was forced to break the lease and so none of the penalties apply and since it was the landlord's fault, the remaining rent is no longer due. | Mar 27 21:00 |
| DaemonFC | This can be due to.....unacceptable condition of the building, landord harassment, lots of things. | Mar 27 21:01 |
| DaemonFC | It's kind of the nuclear option, but it works. | Mar 27 21:03 |
| DaemonFC | I doubt many people are smart enough to tie up their landlord in court. They just get evicted and don't even show up to court and then wonder why they can't get another apartment. | Mar 27 21:04 |
| DaemonFC | If you owe back rent and are going to be evicted, there's a couple things you can do to keep that part from happening. You can beat the landlord and file bankruptcy, which zeroes out the balance due and lets you stay in the place and not pay him while it makes its way through the court system. | Mar 27 21:05 |
| DaemonFC | It also effectively gags any of your creditors from saying anything had happened that hadn't already been reported to credit bureaus before the filing date when the automatic stay goes into effect. | Mar 27 21:05 |
| MinceR | lol @ titles at MICROS~1 | Mar 27 21:06 |
| MinceR | is dave cutler a "distinguished engineer" too? :> | Mar 27 21:06 |
| DaemonFC | If you can't file, but you still don't want an eviction or forcible detainer case on your credit, you should get out, and give the landlord his keys and a letter stating that you are breaking the lease and you are no longer in possession of the apartment, by certified mail. | Mar 27 21:06 |
| DaemonFC | They can still get you for unpaid rent, but it's not an eviction. | Mar 27 21:06 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, No, he's a DISTIN~1, and everyone else is a DISTIN~2, DISTIN~3, and so on. | Mar 27 21:08 |

| bnchs | your stomach just expands to handle that much | Mar 27 21:55 |

| DaemonFC | Mandy likes my Kung Pao Chicken, but the cashews have gotten expensive. Big rebates right now. | Mar 27 22:21 |
| DaemonFC | I'll just buy the maximum amount and stuff them in my pantry and then I can make it several more times on the cashews I bought real cheap. | Mar 27 22:21 |

| DaemonFC | Something like that. | Mar 27 22:22 |

| DaemonFC | You only save about a nickel per can vs. Walmart, but if you go over there and shop in bulk... | Mar 27 22:24 |
| DaemonFC | I pretty much have my own private supermarket. About the only thing you can't stockpile is fresh produce. | Mar 27 22:24 |
| DaemonFC | That spoils in days if you don't use it up. | Mar 27 22:24 |
| DaemonFC | But even if the store ran out of everything, I have plenty of meat, canned vegetables, and spices to last a long long time. | Mar 27 22:25 |

| DaemonFC | My Uncle Barry (an Uncle by marriage, my Aunt divorced him) refused a pension plan from RCA that didn't even cost anything to sign up for. | Mar 27 23:51 |
| DaemonFC | He said, "I'm not going to retire from here!". | Mar 27 23:52 |
| DaemonFC | Now he has no retirement income at all except a measly Social Security check that's barely enough to eat and pay rent with. | Mar 27 23:52 |
| DaemonFC | Everyone figures that 30-40 years might as well be forever from now. | Mar 27 23:52 |
| DaemonFC | Until they get old, can't work, and have nothing. | Mar 27 23:52 |
| DaemonFC | And honestly, not having a 401(k) screws you in a lot of ways you don't even consider. The IRS might even give you part of the value back each year as a tax credit, and if you have to file bankruptcy, the court can't touch any of it. | Mar 27 23:53 |
| DaemonFC | They can't make you take your retirement money to pay your bills with, so it's all protected no matter how much is in there, in addition to your exempt assets. | Mar 27 23:54 |
| DaemonFC | Of course, you could choose to empty it later voluntarily after all of your debts go away and you need money to rebuild your life with. | Mar 27 23:54 |
| DaemonFC | So it's a pile of cash your bill collectors can't get at. | Mar 27 23:54 |
