| BaronVladimirHar | According to the antivirus testing companies, Defender has improved, but it's still behind others. | May 28 00:46 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Avast! Free Edition scored higher. | May 28 00:46 |
| BaronVladimirHar | That's what I used back during XP mainly, though I did set up AVG on an ex's computer because he had been running Windows with nothing at all. | May 28 00:47 |
| BaronVladimirHar | It used to be a lot less spammy. | May 28 00:48 |
| BaronVladimirHar | They added a lot of questionable features and then turned the free antivirus into nagware that, yes it has a basic antivirus engine in it, but you won't be able to tolerate it for very long without paying. | May 28 00:48 |
| BaronVladimirHar | On one of my systems, I noticed that Avira Antivir Free was mostly different in it popped up a nag screen once per day, so I downloaded a small tray applet and trained it to identify and close that window whenever Avira opened it. | May 28 00:49 |

| CrystalMath | schestowitz: well, lots of people were anti-freenode, although us pro-freenoders succeeded at being loud so the pro-freenode messages were heard | May 28 13:25 |

| CrystalMath | i had a correspondence with Richard Stallman over this | May 28 13:28 |
| CrystalMath | the opinion of one is that both freenode and libera are petty | May 28 13:29 |
| schestowitz | haha | May 28 13:29 |
| CrystalMath | and the other seems to be firmly anti-freenode | May 28 13:29 |

| CrystalMath | sadly i doubt that GNU and FSF is going to stay, but there's hope for bridging and that it won't be libera they go to | May 28 13:31 |
| schestowitz | so we can start a war and divide outselves over another BS | May 28 13:31 |
| CrystalMath | even XMPP is on the table | May 28 13:31 |
| schestowitz | yeah, self-hosted one hopes | May 28 13:31 |
| CrystalMath | GNU already has one | May 28 13:31 |

| schestowitz | I think that's how some of the current mess started | May 28 14:03 |
| samiamsam | like the message lengths. and the fact that message length is dependent on the irc network | May 28 14:03 |
| schestowitz | IRC works very well for us | May 28 14:03 |
| schestowitz | and has for many years | May 28 14:03 |
| schestowitz | maybe it's unsuitable for FSF | May 28 14:04 |
| downey[m] | And that push seems to have led to the panic of IRCops fearful of losing their power. | May 28 14:04 |
| *wineroots has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) | May 28 14:04 | |
| schestowitz | FSF used to do lots of FTP stuff even before Debian did | May 28 14:04 |
| samiamsam | downey[m]: you fail to demonstrate understanding of the point which i just stated, which refutes your line of thought. thus, by ignoring what i say, you signal your unreceptiveness to reason. another behavior of tyranny. | May 28 14:04 |
| schestowitz | NNTP has the same issues | May 28 14:04 |
| downey[m] | And thus provoking the coup with claims of "hostile takeover" due to a logo that had been there for years. | May 28 14:04 |
| schestowitz | and you need to cope with k00ks, ISPs, and spam | May 28 14:04 |
| schestowitz | still better than being nuked by Microsoft over some lousy DMCA letter or Microsoft the criminal firm pretending YOu do sometihng illegal | May 28 14:05 |

| schestowitz | to be clear, we are not leaving IRC | May 28 14:06 |
| schestowitz | it suits us in a lot of ways | May 28 14:06 |
| samiamsam | schestowitz: it works fine. it's "good enough." at least these days you can do utf8. ฮป! but the reasons for its limitations aren't people's preferences. | May 28 14:06 |
| schestowitz | it helps us collaborate, reach sources with 'burner' accounts etc. | May 28 14:07 |
| BaronVladimirHar | <kingoffrance "on a minor note, USPS was an ear"> Because the postal union went on strike and the military had to be activated to deliver the mail. | May 28 14:07 |
| samiamsam | schestowitz: we're probably talking about different 'we's; i just meant freenode users | May 28 14:07 |
| samiamsam | not this channel specifically | May 28 14:07 |
| schestowitz | I see.. | May 28 14:07 |
| schestowitz | well, it's like saying let's all stop using email because of spam | May 28 14:07 |
| schestowitz | that would suck | May 28 14:07 |
| schestowitz | I barely use email for much anymore | May 28 14:08 |
| schestowitz | but some things require it | May 28 14:08 |
| samiamsam | no no no | May 28 14:08 |
| samiamsam | email is like chat | May 28 14:08 |
| samiamsam | irc is like smtp | May 28 14:08 |
| schestowitz | email is supported by MANY programs, same for IRC | May 28 14:08 |
| schestowitz | Matrix nope | May 28 14:08 |
| samiamsam | well the thing is that you can throw irc in front of another protocol so it doesn't matter from that perspective | May 28 14:08 |
| schestowitz | unless you get "Shiny" things and spying devices with "apps" and browsers 200MB in size (binary) | May 28 14:08 |
| samiamsam | you can throw irc in front of xmpp for clients | May 28 14:08 |
| kingoffrance | BaronVladimirHar, yes | May 28 14:09 |
| samiamsam | on the same ip address | May 28 14:09 |
| schestowitz | doesn't work well the other way around | May 28 14:09 |
| kingoffrance | it was mentioned during all the hubbub "this is why gov fails" ....even though PPP is the future :) | May 28 14:09 |
| samiamsam | right. because xmpp has features irc lacks. | May 28 14:09 |
| schestowitz | complex protocols and simple ones are a one-way street | May 28 14:09 |
| schestowitz | so I'd rather use the simpler one | May 28 14:09 |
| samiamsam | well you can as a client | May 28 14:09 |
| kingoffrance | BaronVladimirHar, i admit that is a special instance of PPP | May 28 14:09 |
| samiamsam | but you can upgrade to xmpp to do things like encrypted PM, or negotiate voip | May 28 14:10 |
| schestowitz | we use mumble internally | May 28 14:10 |
| schestowitz | but that's for voice | May 28 14:10 |
| schestowitz | and it's self-hosted | May 28 14:10 |

| BaronVladimirHar | YouTube isn't something I like very much. I use ublock origin and Sponsorblock and watch videos from DuckDuckGo. | May 28 14:56 |
| BaronVladimirHar | But so many people use it that it's unavoidable at this point. | May 28 14:57 |
| stormchaser3000 | I am not the biggest fan of JavaScript, but I do see legitimate uses for it | May 28 14:57 |
| schestowitz | youtube is getting worse very fast | May 28 14:57 |
| schestowitz | it's maddening how much junk and ads they throw at you now | May 28 14:57 |
| stormchaser3000 | it becomes a problem when JavaScript is used to generate the page on the client-side | May 28 14:57 |
| schestowitz | you cannot even access it at all without JS now | May 28 14:57 |
| stormchaser3000 | yeah, Youtube is awful | May 28 14:57 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The ads are quite bad and they focus on "smart" tv apps where you can't block them. | May 28 14:57 |
| BaronVladimirHar | <schestowitz "you cannot even access it at all"> Polymer | May 28 14:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | on another note, I would really like to build a LBRY client in Qt or GTK2 | May 28 14:58 |
| schestowitz | LBRY? | May 28 14:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | yeah | May 28 14:58 |
| schestowitz | or Odysee? | May 28 14:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | LBRY | May 28 14:58 |
| schestowitz | LBRY is under SEC investigation, IIRC | May 28 14:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | Odysee is just a frontend | May 28 14:58 |
| schestowitz | so they direct everyone to Odysee | May 28 14:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | LBRY is a blockchain content sharing technology which is the backend of Odysee | May 28 14:59 |
| stormchaser3000 | I want to write a Qt-based (or GTK2-based) front-end to access content on the LBRY/Odysee blockchain | May 28 14:59 |
| BaronVladimirHar | <schestowitz "and some lousy IE version"> The Mac version of IE wasn't a straight up port. They wroteab entirely new engine for that and Office Mac. | May 28 14:59 |

| stormchaser3000 | there is no non-web-based means of accessing the LBRY network | May 28 15:00 |

| BaronVladimirHar | There's no right to not be offended. People don't want to be criticized. | May 28 17:51 |
| stormchaser3000 | I do try to be sensitive to others, but when reality itself is offensive, then that makes it rather difficult | May 28 17:51 |
| BaronVladimirHar | If you have a right to avoid being offended it makes it impossible to be criticized. | May 28 17:51 |
| BaronVladimirHar | That episode of Black Mirror on helicopter parenting stole one element from The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. | May 28 17:52 |
| stormchaser3000 | yeah, I don't look at it is having a right to not be offended, but rather, one should try to accept things they disagree with by agreeing to disagree and not getting all worked up over it | May 28 17:52 |
| stormchaser3000 | no one has a right not to be offended | May 28 17:52 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The sunglasses that blocked out everything that would alarm you by turning completely black. | May 28 17:53 |
| stormchaser3000 | it is up to the individual to not get worked up over something that they might find offensive | May 28 17:53 |

| BaronVladimirHar | In the episode, a helicopter mom put a brain chip in her daughter and it started blocking out her exposure to sex, scary dogs, blood, her grandfather having a stroke (who nearly died). | May 28 17:53 |
| stormchaser3000 | wow | May 28 17:54 |
| BaronVladimirHar | You can't avoid every thing that is going to cause you trauma. Actual trauma. You won't be a developed person. | May 28 17:54 |
| BaronVladimirHar | But we have people concerned about being called a bad name. | May 28 17:54 |
| BaronVladimirHar | While their cities have violence and drugs and carjackings. | May 28 17:55 |
| stormchaser3000 | while I think there are appropriate ages to start explaining different concepts to children, there are somethings that they need to be taught right away | May 28 17:55 |
| stormchaser3000 | how to deal with bullies for instance | May 28 17:55 |
| stormchaser3000 | or how to respect other people and their opinions | May 28 17:55 |
| BaronVladimirHar | They might be a victim of an actual crime because the Democrats they hired to ban microaggressions are presiding over a 70% rise in shootings and a tripling of carjackings. | May 28 17:55 |
| BaronVladimirHar | It's lost on them. | May 28 17:56 |
| stormchaser3000 | I almost wonder if there needs to be parenting classes at this point... at the very least some training to teach parents that when they have children, they need to teah their children right from wrong as well as prepare them for dangerous situations | May 28 17:57 |
| *xvx (~xvx@185.48.63.110) has joined #techrights | May 28 17:57 | |
| stormchaser3000 | then, of course, there would be the problem of who runs the parenting classes XD | May 28 17:57 |
| stormchaser3000 | children are very naive so they do need to be protected from some things, but they also need to be prepared to deal with dangerous situations like if some perverted individual drives up next to them asking them to get in the car | May 28 17:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | a child, without the appropriate training, would probably give in | May 28 17:59 |
| stormchaser3000 | therefore, training a child to deal with such situations is imperative | May 28 17:59 |

| MinceR | no | May 28 18:42 |
| birkoff | why? | May 28 18:42 |
| MinceR | https://img.ifunny.co/images/243d006b6515723fc12069701d26c4fa529f71064f4801e4ed6a84fd46ee205c_1.jpg | May 28 18:44 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Even with the best parenting, most teenagers are sexually active by a certain age. | May 28 18:44 |
| MinceR | because we're more likely to be able to chat freely here than on libera or oftc | May 28 18:44 |
| MinceR | if that changes, we will move | May 28 18:44 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The censor chip in that episode was responsible for messing that woman up well into adulthood in a lot of ways. | May 28 18:44 |
| BaronVladimirHar | By preventing normal development. | May 28 18:44 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Sadly, some normal development is post-traumatic growth. | May 28 18:44 |
| MinceR | but hopefully not to libera or oftc | May 28 18:44 |
| birkoff | how so ? libera is run by most freenode people | May 28 18:45 |
| MinceR | yes, that's the problem | May 28 18:45 |
| birkoff | and both libera and oftc are supportive of the open source community | May 28 18:45 |
| MinceR | several of those people are enemies of free software, as evidence by their signatures on the anti-RMS letter | May 28 18:46 |
| birkoff | but the current purchasers aren't ? | May 28 18:46 |
| MinceR | "open source" is dead, even the OSI was taken over by corporations that are enemies of open source | May 28 18:46 |
| MinceR | we'll see what the current purchaser is like | May 28 18:46 |
| birkoff | how is open source dead ? | May 28 18:46 |
| MinceR | like i said, if necessary, we will move, but hopefully not to libera or oftc | May 28 18:46 |
| MinceR | well, for example, Bruce Perens left the OSI when OSI management was ready to approve a non-open source license as "open source" | May 28 18:47 |
| stormchaser3000 | birkoff: I haven't seen much to suggest that the current owner of Freenode is against Free Software, but as MinceR has pointed out, we will have to wait and see | May 28 18:47 |
| MinceR | the OSI also took part in the attempt to cancel RMS and the FSF board later | May 28 18:47 |
| cybrNaut | hmm.. so there's a cancel-culture consistency between the anti-RMS crowd and the anti-freenode crowd | May 28 18:47 |
| stormchaser3000 | cybrNaut: yes, there appears to be a large consistency between the two | May 28 18:47 |
| BaronVladimirHar | I've had lots of trauma, but I try to learn something from it. Not to hide myself from all possible sources of pain and miss out on the entirety of my life. | May 28 18:48 |
| birkoff | is it really so ? we both are against hostile take over so | May 28 18:48 |
| birkoff | https://www.jwz.org/images/2021/1620650511-20210510.png | May 28 18:48 |
| MinceR | also, "open source" is pushed especially by proponents of Open Source Proprietary Software (e.g. systemd and mono) | May 28 18:48 |
| birkoff | "open source" was always about collaborating with properitary software | May 28 18:50 |
| birkoff | systemd is propietary ? | May 28 18:50 |
| MinceR | yes | May 28 18:50 |
| birkoff | well those greedy capitalists always come after many years of hard work and reap the fruits of others, unless that is taken care of there is no hope | May 28 18:50 |
| *stormchaser3000 hasn't looked at the license of systemd | May 28 18:50 | |
| MinceR | "โFree softwareโ means software that respects users' freedom and community." -- https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html | May 28 18:50 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.gnu.org | What is free software? - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation | May 28 18:50 | |
| MinceR | systemd is the opposite of that | May 28 18:50 |
| MinceR | the Free Software Definition is not about licenses | May 28 18:51 |
| stormchaser3000 | ah, I see what you mean | May 28 18:51 |
| cybrNaut | debian uses systemd, and i think debian is free software (neglecting fsf's issue with non-free repos) | May 28 18:51 |
| MinceR | debian used to be free software before it betrayed its users and its principles in favor of gnome people paid by red hat | May 28 18:51 |
| MinceR | unsurprisingly, the gnome project has a long history of attacking the FSF | May 28 18:52 |
| MinceR | and the gnome foundation took part in the attempt to cancel RMS and the FSF board | May 28 18:52 |
| stormchaser3000 | actually, I think the gnome foundation threatening to end it's relationship with the FSF was what spurred on the ressignation of Richard Stallman... | May 28 18:53 |

| stormchaser3000 | the overuse of JavaScript is going to be first and foremost in it | May 28 18:56 |
| birkoff | do that | May 28 18:57 |
| birkoff | why did everone move to code apps for the web browser though ? | May 28 18:57 |
| MinceR | because people are stupid and they love bloat | May 28 18:57 |
| birkoff | it's not that cross platform | May 28 18:57 |
| stormchaser3000 | as I see it, this idea of "write once, run everywhere" has made the lives of the users of low-end computers miserable | May 28 18:57 |
| stormchaser3000 | the electron and nodejs projects are used to create "desktop" apps that are just webapps with extra privileges with the same performance hits | May 28 18:58 |
| birkoff | wasn't javascript always mocked as not being a real computer programming language, bad practice etc.... | May 28 18:58 |
| birkoff | and now it's popular as | May 28 18:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | birkoff: I am sure it probably was at one point | May 28 18:58 |
| psydroid | I think it's to become independent from the Windows, macOS and Android toolkit of the day | May 28 18:58 |
| stormchaser3000 | nowdays, it is the norm if you want to develop a website | May 28 18:59 |
| MinceR | it's still mocked | May 28 18:59 |
| psydroid | so the web became kind of this lowest common denominator | May 28 18:59 |
| stormchaser3000 | it is definitely mocked, but I don't think the mocking is quite as mainstream | May 28 18:59 |
| birkoff | computers are compromised big | May 28 18:59 |
| psydroid | it's the one thing MS couldn't EEE | May 28 18:59 |

| MinceR | well, there's TypeScript | May 28 18:59 |
| stormchaser3000 | psydroid: I don't quite know how developing a webapp in JavaScript is the lowest common denominator... | May 28 19:00 |
| MinceR | bondage-and-discipline language fans use it | May 28 19:00 |
| birkoff | stormchaser3000: obviously it isn't , javascript is probably one of the most popular languages right now being used for many stuff | May 28 19:00 |
| stormchaser3000 | as far as I am concerned, developing using a cross-platform toolkit like Qt or GTK2 is better because the code can esaily be compiled across different platforms | May 28 19:00 |
| birkoff | the GUI toolkits of old are less popular now | May 28 19:00 |
| stormchaser3000 | the lowest common denominator for me is the Pi 400 because I use it on a daily basis | May 28 19:01 |
| MinceR | the time of the gui toolkits of old has come | May 28 19:01 |
| MinceR | since gtk and qt have both implemented half a window manager to cater to wayland | May 28 19:01 |

| stormchaser3000 | why not use fltk then? | May 28 19:02 |
| MinceR | i'm sure they'll find a way to make GTK+ nonfree also | May 28 19:02 |
| stormchaser3000 | fltk is quite nice | May 28 19:02 |

| BaronVladimirHar | When I went to leave Pep Boys, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System light came on. | May 28 20:45 |
| BaronVladimirHar | So I went back, and it turned out that the guy had put the new tire on and filled it to spec, but didn't top off the other tires with air, so I had to reset the TPMS light with the radio and sit there while the guy topped the other tires off. | May 28 20:45 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The TPMS on this car is really sensitive. | May 28 20:45 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Most of the "Message Center" crap can be reset with the radio by pulling up a diagnostic menu. | May 28 20:46 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The guy at Pep Boys didn't know how to turn off the TPMS light. I told him, "Well, I figured it out because almost nobody resets the Oil Change Interval light either and you have to use the radio to reset that one.". | May 28 20:47 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The OCI is simple. If you reset it, it goes off 5,000 miles later. If you don't, it might come on between oil changes. | May 28 20:48 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Oil Change Interval lights are meant to help a driver never forget to change their oil, but since the driver is usually the one to turn it off because the shop didn't, it's just a light that comes on and needs to be turned off. | May 28 20:49 |

| BaronVladimirHar | Mandy asked why not. I said, "Oh the court was very clear in that I was to have no communication with him for at least a year. Besides, he'll figure it out." | May 28 21:19 |
| BaronVladimirHar | MinceR: "I've got this thing and it's fucking golden, and I'm not gonna give it up for fuckin' nothing." -Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, about the US Senate seat that opened up when Obama resigned from it. | May 28 21:21 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Weโre just not compatible any more: why Microsoft finally dumped Internet Explorer- Technology News, Firstpost | May 28 22:16 | |
| BaronVladimirHar | "Unixโs original web browser, Netscape, was similarly no-frills." | May 28 22:21 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The first Unix web browser was WorldWideWeb. | May 28 22:21 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The first widely used one was NCSA Mosaic from the University of Illinois. | May 28 22:22 |
| BaronVladimirHar | "by the time Internet Explorer launched in 1995, Microsoft had cemented itself at the forefront of the digital world" | May 28 22:25 |
| BaronVladimirHar | IE was totally reactionary and it took several versions to catch on. The first two weren't much different from Spyglass Mosaic. In fact, the first version was just a licensed version of Spyglass Mosaic modified to say Internet Explorer and display the Windows 95 logo. | May 28 22:26 |
| AdmFubar | off to diner | May 28 22:27 |
| AdmFubar | laters | May 28 22:27 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Microsoft deceived them into licensing it under terms where Microsoft said they wanted to sell an internet in a box kit for Windows 95, and it was a part of the Plus Pack for Windows 95. | May 28 22:27 |
| *AdmFubar (~mradmin@76-234-138-224.lightspeed.bcvloh.sbcglobal.net) has left #techrights | May 28 22:28 | |
| BaronVladimirHar | But then they eventually started bundling. IE 3 was the beginning of the bundle. In Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2.1, IE 3 was included as an inf and cab file that the installer would extract, and there was no uninstall program included, but if you deleted the inf and cab files and then made a new installation CD, you would get Windows 95 B without any traces of IE 3. | May 28 22:29 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Windows 95 OSR 2.5 came with IE 4 and the Shell Update pre-installed. In fact, it was almost identical to the first release of Windows 98 aside from the ability to run program code from the vcache area, and the WDM driver model which almost nothing used for years anyway. | May 28 22:31 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The IE shell update was where things really went wrong for Windows 9x. | May 28 22:31 |
| BaronVladimirHar | It was so unstable and leaky that it severely compromised the reliability of the system. | May 28 22:32 |
| BaronVladimirHar | For the first 2 versions of IE, there was only one person on the entire project. Bill Gates was still questioning whether the internet was going to be a fad in the home computer market clear up to about 1997. | May 28 22:33 |
| BaronVladimirHar | "But the bottom line is Internet Explorer just lacks the versatility needed by web-savvy users. And as of next year, even the non-savvy users will stop relying on it too." | May 28 22:35 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Most websites just don't work at all in IE 11 anymore. | May 28 22:35 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Reddit only does through old.reddit.com | May 28 22:35 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Norton was promoting IE 11 and giving users instructions on how to make it the default browser on Windows 10 for years after Microsoft warned that it was only there for compatibility. | May 28 22:36 |
| psydroid | Windows 95 OSR 2.5 was the most miserable experience with an operating system I've ever had | May 28 22:40 |
| psydroid | within 3 hours of unpacking my new computer it died | May 28 22:40 |
| psydroid | so I had to spend an hour on ths phone with my uncle to learn how to reinstall it | May 28 22:41 |
| psydroid | if he had told me about Linux then I would never even have used Windows | May 28 22:41 |

| tuks | very interesting | May 28 23:22 |

| tuks | watching this patents video (it's mentioned that patent rights go for 20 years), it reminded me the scent "cool water" | May 28 23:40 |
| stormchaser3000 | patents continue for 20 years!? | May 28 23:41 |
| stormchaser3000 | that is insane | May 28 23:41 |
| tuks | yep... why? the answer is: methylbenzodioxepinon - this is the chemical component that makes you smell like sea breeze | May 28 23:41 |
| schestowitz | stormchaser3000: sometimes more | May 28 23:41 |
| schestowitz | depending where | May 28 23:41 |
| schestowitz | Brazil's supreme court recently challenged this in context of pharma IIRC | May 28 23:42 |
| stormchaser3000 | wouldn't that just kill any and all competition for longer than is necessary? | May 28 23:42 |
| tuks | and it was patented 1966 - so when the twenty years were over, folks started to experimenting with it | May 28 23:42 |
| stormchaser3000 | I understand the need for patents in the short-term, but in the long-term that sounds rediculous | May 28 23:42 |
| tuks | this is why cool water came was developed just after that, '87/'88 | May 28 23:42 |
| stormchaser3000 | by short-term I mean like 2 - 5 years | May 28 23:42 |
| schestowitz | that's how long it sometimes take just to get a patent | May 28 23:43 |
| tuks | this established a new trend, so called aquatic scents (along with new west by aramis) | May 28 23:43 |

| stormchaser3000 | I really don't want IRC to die, but this situation might just start the death knel | May 28 23:47 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Well, we know Mandy does not have COVID. | May 28 23:47 |
| MinceR | i don't think this will kill IRC | May 28 23:47 |
| BaronVladimirHar | The lab test says negative, which confirms the quick one, but my nose is starting to get itchy. | May 28 23:47 |
| MinceR | and if we do move, i hope it's not to libera or oftc | May 28 23:48 |
| stormchaser3000 | MinceR: that is the reason I said "start" | May 28 23:48 |
| BaronVladimirHar | That stupid cunt at the walk-in clinic was like "It's probably allergies." which probably explains a fever of 101 or why he was chilling, and why I'm starting to feel like crap. | May 28 23:48 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Sorry for the language, but ugh. | May 28 23:48 |
| stormchaser3000 | I don't think IRC will die right away, but I woudn't be surprised if it dies over the course of the next couple years | May 28 23:48 |
| BaronVladimirHar | $200-400 for "It's probably allergies." | May 28 23:48 |
| stormchaser3000 | then again, I am a bit of a pessimist : | May 28 23:49 |
| stormchaser3000 | :/ | May 28 23:49 |
| BaronVladimirHar | I'm doing a blog post about shit like this. | May 28 23:49 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Don't go to walk-in clinics unless you have the clap. | May 28 23:49 |
| BaronVladimirHar | They don't do too well unless it's the clap or a broken bone. | May 28 23:49 |
| schestowitz | [23:47] <MinceR> i don't think this will kill IRC | May 28 23:49 |
| schestowitz | right | May 28 23:49 |
| MinceR | maybe we'll have a truly distributed and well manageable alternative though | May 28 23:50 |
| tuks | matrix | May 28 23:50 |
| alextee[m] | matrix! yes | May 28 23:50 |
| schestowitz | BaronVladimirHar: off topic | May 28 23:50 |
| alextee[m] | if you can handle the bloat | May 28 23:50 |
| MinceR | matrix is not that yet | May 28 23:50 |
| MinceR | it's not distributed enough | May 28 23:50 |
| schestowitz | matrix doesn't have broad support | May 28 23:50 |
| MinceR | and matrix.org is censored | May 28 23:50 |
| BaronVladimirHar | It's mostly children now on matrix.org. | May 28 23:50 |
| alextee[m] | how is it not distributed enough? you can host your own server (although it's a pain) | May 28 23:50 |
| tuks | yeah, but you can have your own server then | May 28 23:51 |
| schestowitz | and the people behind it are no better than those who start unnecessary ideological wars | May 28 23:51 |
| MinceR | you need a domain name for your own server | May 28 23:51 |
| alextee[m] | yeah matrix.org people are generally SJWs, but at least they do the work to develop the features | May 28 23:51 |
| alextee[m] | MinceR: costs 10 dollars a year | May 28 23:51 |
| alextee[m] | iirc it wants to hijack your whole domain though | May 28 23:51 |
| stormchaser3000 | Matrix is also extremely heavy on bandwidth | May 28 23:51 |
| MinceR | and the domain name system isn't exactly trustworthy -- most registrars will happily revoke your domain for all sorts of bullshit complaints | May 28 23:51 |
| BaronVladimirHar | 1-10, matrix.org is like a 8.3 on the Jared Fogle scale. | May 28 23:52 |
| schestowitz | IRC works | May 28 23:52 |
| alextee[m] | matrix on GNUnet then MinceR :-) | May 28 23:52 |
| BaronVladimirHar | None of those open source projects went for Matrix. | May 28 23:52 |
| tuks | if I'm not mistaken, it's possible to keep irc and bridge it, in case there will be a room | May 28 23:52 |
| schestowitz | "hSiiiiny toys" syndrome | May 28 23:52 |
| BaronVladimirHar | They just did another IRC server and say a bridge is coming. | May 28 23:52 |
| MinceR | alextee[m]: does that actually work? | May 28 23:52 |
| alextee[m] | I think IRC and matrix both have their use cases, one doesn't replace the other | May 28 23:53 |
| alextee[m] | MinceR: haven't tried it, GNUnet development seems pretty slow | May 28 23:53 |
| alextee[m] | I wish fsf backed these projects more | May 28 23:53 |
| schestowitz | which ones? | May 28 23:53 |
| alextee[m] | GNU taler is another great project | May 28 23:53 |
| schestowitz | matrix? | May 28 23:53 |
| alextee[m] | schestowitz: GNUnet | May 28 23:53 |
| schestowitz | I tried it | May 28 23:54 |
| schestowitz | but it's not ready yet | May 28 23:54 |
| schestowitz | unless you love testing things | May 28 23:54 |
| alextee[m] | yeah it's not usable yet, but it's supposed to have its own domain system | May 28 23:54 |
| MinceR | there's also secushare | May 28 23:54 |
| alextee[m] | so you don't have to depend on registrars | May 28 23:54 |
| schestowitz | taler and gnunet are connected to other dweb and privacy projects | May 28 23:54 |
| schestowitz | so gnu puts some key pieces in place | May 28 23:54 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Apparently, I'm not the only one who thinks that Matrix.org is too Fogley. | May 28 23:54 |
| schestowitz | [23:54] <alextee[m]> yeah it's not usable yet, but it's supposed to have its own domain system | May 28 23:55 |
| schestowitz | supposed to | May 28 23:55 |
| schestowitz | when it is ready for production | May 28 23:55 |
| alextee[m] | heh, I hate how most free software projects are sitting as hobby projects while the main devs have full time jobs doing other things | May 28 23:55 |
| psydroid | eventually nothing should stay on matrix.org, but not enough projects and individuals run their own servers yet | May 28 23:56 |
| schestowitz | you can already bypass dns for techrights, use ipfs | May 28 23:56 |
| MinceR | it's better than having suits fuck them up, though | May 28 23:56 |
| alextee[m] | psydroid: I think the main reason to use matrix.org is because it sees the newest features first. once all the fancy features are there more people will run their own nodes I think | May 28 23:56 |
| tuks | serenityos dev just quit his job in order to do the os full time | May 28 23:57 |
| tuks | there is a new fancy feature on matrix called spaces. it's a collection of rooms basically | May 28 23:58 |
| alextee[m] | <tuks "there is a new fancy feature on "> yeah this is the only thing that discord was doing better than matrix | May 28 23:59 |
| alextee[m] | now there's almost nothing worthy in discord that matrix doesn't have | May 28 23:59 |
| alextee[m] | maybe custom emojis | May 28 23:59 |
