DaemonFC | I mixed up that 8 ounce car wash concentrate with some dehumidifier water and went over the car again. It got pretty filthy while it was sitting there waiting for that guy to get around to it. | May 29 00:25 |

DaemonFC | I like this Aero Cosmetics stuff. I'll buy it again. | May 29 00:26 |
MinceR | because the only thing that makes your OS more secure than running systemd... is running more instances of systemd. | May 29 00:26 |
DaemonFC | The dehumidifier water makes great stuff to reconstitute it with because it has no minerals in it. | May 29 00:26 |
DaemonFC | So you get your car washed and waxed in one go and you don't leave any spots on it. | May 29 00:26 |

DaemonFC | I can reconstitute that with dehumidifier water. | May 29 00:27 |
DaemonFC | It makes 8 gallons and it won't freeze in the winter, and it cost me $6.95, so that's like the price of three gallons ready to use. | May 29 00:27 |

matey | you know geordi was too nice to say it | May 29 00:31 |
matey | but picard would have never made it in engineering | May 29 00:31 |
MinceR | :> | May 29 00:31 |
matey | i mean he wouldnt have even made it in tech support | May 29 00:32 |
matey | i used to have a modem with FIVE lights on the front-- how am i supposed to tell him? | May 29 00:32 |
matey | THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS! | May 29 00:32 |
MinceR | lol | May 29 00:32 |
matey | actually i take it back, thats every tech support call ive ever had | May 29 00:32 |
matey | he would be perfect for that, if the starship captain thing doesnt work out | May 29 00:32 |
matey | hello this is jean-luc, have you tried tuhhhning it Ohn and Ohf again? | May 29 00:33 |
matey | "hello, jean-luc" | May 29 00:33 |
matey | "q! i told you, unless you have a problem with your internet connection not to call me here!" | May 29 00:33 |
matey | "oh well, it just so happens ive subscribed" | May 29 00:33 |
matey | "why? youre om-nip-o-tent, you dont NEED an internet connection" | May 29 00:34 |
matey | "yes, but i thought itd be so fun to have one you humans diagnose the issues with it" | May 29 00:34 |
matey | "whats the problem?" | May 29 00:34 |
matey | "its in another galaxy." | May 29 00:34 |
matey | "well, i dont handle that sort of problem anymore" | May 29 00:34 |
matey | om-nip-o-tent is how he pronounces it, you see | May 29 00:35 |

chicksahoy | Citizenfour was an awesome documentary | May 29 00:39 |
matey | im pretty sure all tech support on earth is done by cardassian interrogators | May 29 00:40 |
matey | "im going to sent a reset packet to your modem, that should fix the problem" | May 29 00:41 |
matey | "no it wont! that doesnt do anything at all, and the problem is clearly on your side!" | May 29 00:41 |
matey | "what makes you think that?" | May 29 00:41 |
matey | "probably because your isp is on fire and all the lights are out, and no one else in the city has a connection either" | May 29 00:41 |
matey | "well, we can just send reset packets to them, too" | May 29 00:41 |
matey | "yes, but how!" | May 29 00:41 |
matey | "mobile?" | May 29 00:42 |
matey | i reset packet is a completely imaginary thing, like a wotsit | May 29 00:46 |
matey | so is a reset packet, but its a different type | May 29 00:47 |
matey | a reset packet is a half truth, and therefore a half-lie | May 29 00:47 |
matey | what it really means is | May 29 00:47 |
matey | they know theres a problem on their side, as you havent actually changed your setup at all, but now it has stopped working. | May 29 00:47 |
matey | but, if it was a SERIOUS problem, they would probably mention it (probably) | May 29 00:48 |
matey | so really, a reset packet is a thing they made up that means "we know theres a problem, its just not serious enough for us to admit it and service will be back soon" | May 29 00:48 |
matey | but you have to call and get a reset packet in order for them to tell you this | May 29 00:48 |
DaemonFC | I noticed Capital One has a lot of different phone numbers. | May 29 00:48 |
matey | or, you can NOT call and guess how serious it is instead of simply getting a reset packet. | May 29 00:49 |
DaemonFC | If you have a Savor One card, you can call that number and it sends you to someone in the US. | May 29 00:49 |
DaemonFC | If you have the Quicksilver or Walmart Rewards cards, those send you to the Philippines. | May 29 00:49 |
matey | alternatively, a reset packet is a digital version of a communion wafer, except for modems | May 29 00:49 |
matey | some modems are religious and this is what they have to receive each week in order to stay in good graces with their virtual deity | May 29 00:50 |
matey | but i like my first theory better | May 29 00:50 |
matey | very observant modems will pretend to have connection problems, just to receive it | May 29 00:50 |
matey | their god is willing to overlook this little white lie, as long as its for a higher cause | May 29 00:51 |
matey | this puts the isp in the role of the church | May 29 00:51 |
matey | but personally im surprised they havent already said theyre "bigger than jesus" like the beatles did | May 29 00:52 |
matey | i think some of the isps in the states already claim to be "bigger than satan" | May 29 00:54 |
matey | at&t handed out shirts with this slogan at one of their annual picnics | May 29 00:55 |
matey | ibm replied "no, you arent bigger than me" | May 29 00:55 |
matey | but thats a marketshare argument, the same kind that makes windows seem like it matters | May 29 00:56 |

matey | i found out what happens when you mock a modems religious beliefs | May 29 01:41 |
matey | but i think the issue was simpler than that and slightly more technical | May 29 01:41 |
matey | new labour managed to hollow out the "welfare state" more efficiently than thatcher, according to some (british) right wing paper | May 29 01:41 |
matey | this is way more relevant than it sounds | May 29 01:41 |
matey | blair signed onto (perpetrated, participated directly in) war crimes, but beyond that | May 29 01:42 |
matey | relevant because while in office his foreign policy was no different from putins | May 29 01:42 |
matey | though xrevan may protest (i welcome him to do so) | May 29 01:42 |
matey | i think the similarities are more important, which isnt the same as saying the differences are irrelevant | May 29 01:42 |
matey | i wanted to mention the hypocrisy of new labour talking about progress | May 29 01:43 |
matey | they moved towards authoritarianism-- towards pushing people into destitution | May 29 01:43 |
matey | towards policies that disenfranchised so many people on both sides of the aisle that it contributed to brexit (imo) | May 29 01:44 |
matey | but after gutting nhs, gutting help for single mums, gutting human rights and even mass murdering people in a country they had about as much business in as putin has in ukraine | May 29 01:45 |
matey | blair has the nerve to describe today (that is, this year) his term as one of PROGRESS! | May 29 01:45 |
matey | what he did was turn the labour party into a complete farce | May 29 01:45 |
matey | since then, others have come along and made it worse still | May 29 01:46 |
matey | but theyll call it progress | May 29 01:46 |
matey | this is not even anti-labour, its anti bullshit | May 29 01:46 |
matey | gutting something and calling it progress should sound familiar to anyone who gives a shit about free software | May 29 01:46 |
matey | because thats what theyve been doing since 2019 | May 29 01:46 |
matey | gutting it and calling it progress | May 29 01:46 |
matey | its not an isolated thing at all | May 29 01:46 |
matey | more like a sign of the times | May 29 01:46 |
matey | (no, not those times. though mincer has his fingers crossed) | May 29 01:47 |
matey | ibm and red hat, same deal | May 29 01:47 |
matey | we dont want to gut red hat | May 29 01:47 |
matey | we just want to fund it | May 29 01:47 |
matey | who believed them? | May 29 01:47 |
matey | who believed it would get better with ibm owning it? | May 29 01:47 |
matey | because everyone knows, the real problem red hat was having was lack of funding | May 29 01:48 |
matey | it wasnt lack of integrity, abundance of greed, megalomania or anything like THAT | May 29 01:48 |
matey | they only needed more money to thrive | May 29 01:48 |
matey | now they have it, everything is great | May 29 01:48 |
matey | oh, wait, no | May 29 01:49 |
matey | its much worse | May 29 01:49 |
matey | whos surprised? | May 29 01:49 |
matey | id like to see the labour party fix itself | May 29 01:49 |
matey | unlike the fsf, i think its a distinct possibility | May 29 01:49 |
matey | why? | May 29 01:49 |
matey | unlike with the fsf, there are loads of people committed to restoring the left wing spirit of the labour party | May 29 01:49 |
matey | of course like the fsf, those people have fuck-all in terms of power and influence at the moment | May 29 01:50 |
matey | well, thats not entirely true. theyre building it slowly | May 29 01:50 |
matey | gradually taking it back (unlike the fsf) | May 29 01:50 |
matey | it IS possible to do it | May 29 01:50 |
matey | but only if you have enough people who know what theyre doing | May 29 01:50 |
matey | and of course, none of this is (anytime soon) reflected in the candiates | May 29 01:50 |
matey | theyre as bad as ever, and the people who actually want progress arent fooled by this nonsense | May 29 01:51 |
matey | (again, a parallel-- the few people who actually believe free software is about freedom arent fooled by all this horseshit coming out of the fsf lately) | May 29 01:51 |
matey | progress is not about tiny reforms that are followed by two steps back | May 29 01:51 |
matey | if all you can get is a tiny reform-- you call it what it is, and keep fighting for more | May 29 01:52 |
matey | you dont say "oh hey, this is great! WE WON!" | May 29 01:52 |
matey | open source does that | May 29 01:52 |
matey | it does reform tony blair style-- kill hundreds of thousands of iraqis for profit, put single mums on the street and say its PROGRESS | May 29 01:53 |
matey | open source is what red hat is all about | May 29 01:53 |
matey | its the new labour of free software | May 29 01:53 |
matey | this is by all means, the fake left | May 29 01:54 |
matey | but its not the party i dislike, its the people who have taken it over, who are fraunds | May 29 01:54 |
matey | fucksake | May 29 01:54 |
matey | frauds | May 29 01:54 |
matey | they may also be fronds | May 29 01:55 |
matey | all mr stallman is going to do from now on | May 29 01:55 |
matey | is kowtow to tiny reforms and endorse them, and wave like the queen | May 29 01:55 |
matey | but like with new labour, these tiny reforms are actually steps backwards, framed to look like steps forward | May 29 01:56 |
matey | its not progress when mums suddenly cant pay the rent or feed her kids | May 29 01:56 |
matey | its not progress when a million cameras go up on every corner | May 29 01:56 |
matey | its not progress when every browser has fucking telemetry | May 29 01:56 |
matey | but the worthless software foundation will find a way to make it sound good | May 29 01:57 |
matey | because they want your money | May 29 01:57 |
matey | sure, they can always get handouts from corporations | May 29 01:57 |
matey | but that looks bad | May 29 01:57 |
matey | they want YOU to make them look like they stand for anything | May 29 01:57 |
matey | especially, more than ever, now that they stand for FUCK ALL | May 29 01:57 |
matey | though people who know better wont fall for it | May 29 01:57 |
matey | that goes without saying | May 29 01:57 |
matey | but there are people who claim to know anything that DO fall for it | May 29 01:58 |
matey | or act like they do | May 29 01:58 |
matey | we should feel sorry for those people | May 29 01:58 |
matey | but not too much | May 29 01:58 |
matey | after all, theyre part of the problem | May 29 01:58 |

matey | pretending that anyone is helping by propping up bullshit is the same problem on a local level | May 29 02:00 |
matey | and just as pointless | May 29 02:00 |
matey | people shouldnt live in fear of saying its bullshit | May 29 02:00 |
matey | but thats what all this pc bullshit was about | May 29 02:00 |
matey | its not because they care | May 29 02:00 |
matey | its because they dont want people to be able to say what a worthless job theyre doing | May 29 02:00 |
matey | they came in to replace the regime with nothing at all | May 29 02:00 |
matey | theyve done it | May 29 02:00 |
matey | now, you cant say it | May 29 02:00 |
matey | they want you to think you cant say it | May 29 02:00 |
matey | but the more people say how shit it is, the more likely progress will come, from somewhere | May 29 02:01 |
matey | not from the fsf, theyve sold out | May 29 02:01 |
matey | theyre open source now | May 29 02:01 |
matey | theyre not the fsf | May 29 02:01 |
matey | never will be | May 29 02:01 |
matey | the only group of people working their arses off to change the fsf are the shills | May 29 02:01 |
matey | and the lukewarm shits who love tiny reforms that are really steps backward | May 29 02:02 |
matey | lieplanet is their celebration of mediocrity | May 29 02:02 |
matey | the freedom ladder to nowhere | May 29 02:02 |
matey | in ten years, the freedom ladder will be propped up against an alley wall, holding a sign asking for spare change | May 29 02:03 |
matey | on a nearby corner maybe the fsf will be doing the same | May 29 02:03 |
matey | in ten years, the freedom ladder will look less well-taken care of than stallman ever has been (or has allegedly been) | May 29 02:03 |
matey | i mean hes not that much worse off than john lennon ffs | May 29 02:04 |
matey | one was a hacker, the other a world star | May 29 02:04 |
matey | both were assassinated by people who are sociopathic and insane | May 29 02:04 |
matey | who simply wanted to make a name for themselves | May 29 02:05 |
matey | at his expense | May 29 02:05 |
matey | but the freedom ladder is such a joke | May 29 02:05 |
matey | because the people who talk about it dont know where theyre going | May 29 02:05 |
matey | or what theyre doing | May 29 02:05 |
matey | they have no plan | May 29 02:05 |
matey | they dont understand freedom-- at all | May 29 02:05 |
matey | they dont stand for anything, clearly | May 29 02:05 |
matey | they bullshit themselves so they can bullshit other people, so they can raise funds THAT DO NOTHING | May 29 02:06 |
matey | so they can have fake reforms that go backwards | May 29 02:06 |
matey | AND THATS "the freedom ladder" | May 29 02:06 |
matey | its definite step down | May 29 02:06 |
matey | just like stallmans | May 29 02:06 |
matey | the future is ugly | May 29 02:07 |

matey | and see if they have anything to say at all | May 29 02:08 |
matey | spoiler: they have nothing to say | May 29 02:08 |
matey | because they dont know anything about freedom | May 29 02:08 |
matey | freedom is hard work | May 29 02:09 |
matey | these people came in and thought they could make it easier | May 29 02:09 |
matey | thought it was hard because stallman made it difficult | May 29 02:09 |
matey | freedom is difficult | May 29 02:09 |
matey | if you get rid of the people who understand it, it doesnt get easier | May 29 02:09 |
matey | because it wasnt them who made it so much trouble | May 29 02:09 |
matey | surprise, it was freedom itself thats an insufferable pain in the arse | May 29 02:09 |
matey | you thought stallman was bad? | May 29 02:09 |
matey | wait until you (lieplanet cunts) see a mirror someday | May 29 02:09 |
matey | stallman wasnt half as bad | May 29 02:10 |

matey | not from lieplanet | May 29 02:14 |
matey | only now its going to take longer | May 29 02:14 |
matey | thats what counterrevolutions do | May 29 02:14 |

DaemonFC | <matey> alternatively, a reset packet is a digital version of a communion wafer, except for modems | May 29 02:14 |
matey | not insignificantly | May 29 02:14 |
DaemonFC | I thought you couldn't take communion if you had an abortion. | May 29 02:15 |
matey | weve lost a good decade to shit like this | May 29 02:15 |
matey | but the counterrevolution is decades old | May 29 02:15 |
matey | the movement still had enough momentum that a decade into open source | May 29 02:16 |
matey | free software was still going | May 29 02:16 |
matey | from 2011 it started to slow down, and since 2014 its been in a slow reverse | May 29 02:16 |
matey | history repeats itself-- first as a tragedy | May 29 02:16 |
matey | then as a farce | May 29 02:16 |
matey | the fsf is that farce. lieplanet is that farce | May 29 02:16 |
matey | for software to be free, now it will have to move past ALL of that | May 29 02:17 |
matey | or, it can play pretend, with a bunch of idiots who make arts and crafts out of their armpit hair or something | May 29 02:17 |
matey | and have the audacity (the gall as well as the shitty telemetry-laden former application) to say stallmans weird | May 29 02:18 |
matey | thats what happens when everything is run by hypocrites and backstabbers | May 29 02:18 |
matey | seriously | May 29 02:18 |
matey | what did you suspect? | May 29 02:18 |
matey | people think if we pretend its getting better, it magically will | May 29 02:20 |
matey | not if we cant be honest | May 29 02:20 |
matey | when they ban honesty, its clear they cant work within that sort of restriction | May 29 02:20 |
matey | they need to be able to bullshit people | May 29 02:20 |
matey | for their plan to work | May 29 02:20 |
matey | that by itself should clue people in to what the future looks like | May 29 02:20 |
matey | they didnt ban criticism of the people who came before, obviously | May 29 02:21 |
matey | youre only banned from criticising the changes | May 29 02:21 |
matey | what else do you need to know about the new fsf | May 29 02:21 |
matey | what else would be necessary to prove what its future looks like? | May 29 02:21 |
matey | some people just want to pretend | May 29 02:22 |
matey | thats fine. but theyre idiots | May 29 02:22 |
matey | whats more, they wont bring us anything but fake reforms, fake progress, steps backwards | May 29 02:22 |
matey | thats enough reason to not suck up to them | May 29 02:22 |
matey | other than the fact that they dont deserve respect | May 29 02:22 |
matey | who respects such people? | May 29 02:23 |
matey | only the same sort of person | May 29 02:23 |
matey | idiots, fakes. shills. | May 29 02:23 |
matey | but lets be nice. there are more suckers than deliberate shills | May 29 02:23 |
matey | shills never learn. suckers sometimes get smarter | May 29 02:23 |
matey | so we can hope for the best in that regard, as long as we dont get too optimistic | May 29 02:24 |
matey | but sucking up to them is a hilarious non-plan sort of plan | May 29 02:24 |
matey | its fine, if you like useless | May 29 02:24 |

DaemonFC | Red Hat was moving more towards an opaque-source model a long time before IBM bought them. | May 29 06:35 |
DaemonFC | But they got really nasty after the CentOS debacle. | May 29 06:35 |
DaemonFC | Nobody, even Rocky, knows what's actually in their kernel. | May 29 06:35 |
DaemonFC | You can see the entirety of the source, which technically complies with the license, but all you can really do with it is build it. It's a lot of source code, and even if you did pay people to audit it all to make sure Red Hat didn't slip in nasty things like backdoors, they just bump the kernel all the time anyway. | May 29 06:36 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Yes, WSL is attack surface. Everything they put into Windows is attack surface. And we should mention that not only is it attack surface, it's a compatibility later. A lousy compatibility layer on a lousy OS. Which is exactly what SCO did. | May 29 06:39 |

DaemonFC | In the end, I think SCO just paid a consultant to go digging and all he came back with was that a few header files looked vaguely similar to the UNIX kernel's, and then they got expert testimony that there really was no way to implement such a thing other than that, and then the judge ruled that SCO didn't even own UNIX anyway. | May 29 06:40 |
DaemonFC | What a mess, and it was all Microsoft's seed money funding this. | May 29 06:41 |
DaemonFC | That was their second phase in the attack. | May 29 06:41 |
DaemonFC | The first one was ignore or trivialize it, then they paid terrorists to pop up and make the thing look dangerous to use, and now they're embedded in the "open source community" working to sabotage everything all at once from within. And the pay offs aren't even expensive in most cases. | May 29 06:42 |
*activelow has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | May 29 06:43 | |
DaemonFC | And so we're in this third phase now, and WSL is part of this phase. When will they give up on it? Like Google, they burn things down and walk away when it becomes real work for them all the time. | May 29 06:43 |
DaemonFC | So you should hope you don't have a workflow that depends on it for that reason as well. | May 29 06:43 |
DaemonFC | We know Microsoft didn't want to ship a Linux kernel, but the Linux kernel simulation they were paying people to write was so bad it was hysterically funny. They had to maintain that it was "clean" from knowledge of anything GPL, so it meant people at Microsoft writing something with only some vague concept of how Linux actually worked. | May 29 06:45 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-wgntv.com | Conditions of Josh Duggar’s supervised release after prison are not ‘typical,’ but appropriate, judge says | WGN-TV | May 29 11:29 | |
DaemonFC | There should be two conditions. | May 29 11:29 |
DaemonFC | 1. The electric chair. 2. The electric chair. | May 29 11:30 |
DaemonFC | I figured it was such a good condition, mention it a second time. | May 29 11:31 |
matey | priti patel has created a law in the uk that runs contrary to international law, by criminalising asylum seeking by irregular means | May 29 11:43 |
matey | most asylum seeking is by "irregular means" due to the circumstances of people who neeed asylum in the first place | May 29 11:44 |
DaemonFC | There's no "international law" regarding immigration. | May 29 11:44 |
matey | its a bit like saying you cant claim sanctuary in a church if you didnt knock and wait for someone to come to the door, even if the door was open | May 29 11:45 |
DaemonFC | Each country can maintain its own system as they see fit, including criminalizing it, or further criminalizing asking for asylum after illegally immigrating and then getting caught and using an asylum application to gum up the works. | May 29 11:45 |
matey | but again, this is counter to international law | May 29 11:45 |
DaemonFC | Again, there is no real "international law". | May 29 11:45 |
DaemonFC | There are only treaties, and the treaties are what each country has agreed to with other countries, and there are no penalties for violating the treaty, you just rip it up. | May 29 11:46 |
matey | beyond that, its basically a huge fuck you to people who are fleeing persecution, the entire point of asylum being humanitarian and a demonstration of the fact that some places give a shit about the persecution of groups, because theyre good countries | May 29 11:46 |
DaemonFC | Treaties are sort of an agreement in principle that lacks an enforcement mechanism. | May 29 11:46 |
matey | these days, no one cares about that. at least by numbers. | May 29 11:46 |
DaemonFC | Well, bad apples ruin it for everyone. | May 29 11:47 |
matey | in the usa theyre no different. "come here legally" | May 29 11:47 |
DaemonFC | Why do you think I'm going through such hell with US Immigration with Mandy? | May 29 11:47 |
DaemonFC | Everyone tries to game the system somehow. | May 29 11:47 |
DaemonFC | They get caught illegally immigrating here so they throw some bullshit fear of returning to their country. | May 29 11:47 |
matey | they dont understand (nor care to understand) how asylum actually works, so theyre content to see it gutted and people who fled the sort of regimes they claim to be against during illegal invasions | May 29 11:47 |
matey | i mean, they dont want "illegal invasions" of people fleeing bad countries | May 29 11:48 |
DaemonFC | They make something up so the Immigration people have to let them go with a court date that 80% of them don't return for. | May 29 11:48 |
matey | but illegal invasions OF those countries | May 29 11:48 |
matey | the entire thing is based on opportunism and double standards | May 29 11:48 |
DaemonFC | That is what these immigrant caravans are. | May 29 11:48 |
DaemonFC | They're declaring an invasion of the United States, which opens up an interesting concept. | May 29 11:48 |
matey | we can go there and kill people "because tyrants" | May 29 11:48 |
matey | but if those same people who would be "liberated" | May 29 11:48 |
DaemonFC | Texas Governor Abbott says that Texas is being invaded, which is true. | May 29 11:49 |
matey | DONT come here, STAY there, wait for us to invade and exploit your resources and set up a puppet government | May 29 11:49 |
matey | then you wont NEED to flee | May 29 11:49 |
DaemonFC | And the US Constitution says that a state cannot declare war or use military force, "unless it has actually been invaded". | May 29 11:49 |
DaemonFC | Since they are being invaded, it would seem to imply that Texas has the legal authority to use military force to repel the invasion, since the president isn't helping them. | May 29 11:49 |
matey | of course theres a word for that. bollocks. | May 29 11:50 |
matey | the first world runs entirely on bullshit | May 29 11:50 |
DaemonFC | Texas is arresting and detaining immigrants by themselves. | May 29 11:50 |
matey | the rest of the world isnt exactly a haven of humanity either | May 29 11:50 |
DaemonFC | They can do that under all sorts of state laws. | May 29 11:50 |
matey | you can hardly blame people like mincer for coming to the conclusion he does | May 29 11:51 |
matey | though at the moment the problem is not enough people give a shit at the same time | May 29 11:51 |
matey | it isnt even the fact that they dont agree on a solution | May 29 11:51 |
DaemonFC | They can't necessarily set their own immigration laws, but they can do things like arrest them for trespassing and then make sure it's going to take them 3-4 years to get a trial for trespassing, while they wait in jail or agree to return to Mexico. | May 29 11:51 |
matey | because when enough people actually give a shit, agreeing (sufficiently at least) on solutions is a sort of natural byproduct to some degree | May 29 11:52 |
matey | people are willing to take solutions seriously enough when they agree on the nature of the problem | May 29 11:52 |
matey | when enough people actually give a shit, it stops being rocket science. | May 29 11:52 |
DaemonFC | I don't know why we have to let everyone walk in and say they're here when Mandy had to go through the legal process of getting his Green Card. | May 29 11:52 |
DaemonFC | We just let these people in who didn't build anything in their own country and then they want welfare and jobs and shit here? | May 29 11:52 |
matey | its only hopelessly complicated when not enough people agree on the nature of the problem | May 29 11:52 |
DaemonFC | No thanks. | May 29 11:52 |
matey | similarly, when enough people realise why free software is failing, the solutions wont seem so complicated | May 29 11:53 |
matey | they werent when free software actually understood the problem | May 29 11:53 |
DaemonFC | If you're actually going to be murdered or unjustly imprisoned if we send you back, that is the ONLY reason why we should consider your case. | May 29 11:53 |
matey | years of lobbying have created DIFFERENT, unsolvable problems, and softer, easier to implement, and utterly useless "solutions" | May 29 11:53 |
DaemonFC | Everyone else should get a one way ticket back where they came from if they didn't enter legally. | May 29 11:53 |
matey | it really is failing to understand the problem that makes it so impossible to solve | May 29 11:54 |
DaemonFC | We shouldn't be heartless, but we shouldn't be chumps just because their country isn't so good. | May 29 11:54 |
matey | and getting people to not understand the problem is a core goal of fake progress | May 29 11:54 |
matey | including lieplanet, open source, and the new fsf | May 29 11:54 |
DaemonFC | If it was a good place, they wouldn't want to come here. Would they? | May 29 11:54 |
DaemonFC | But that's not our problem. | May 29 11:54 |
matey | its built on pure bullshit | May 29 11:54 |
matey | opportunism and double standards | May 29 11:54 |
DaemonFC | You don't make your country great by bringing in millions of people with no skills who want to live off of you. | May 29 11:55 |
DaemonFC | That's how you weaken it. | May 29 11:55 |
DaemonFC | Generally, like "gun violence" we get hated on by a bunch of foreigners who have never even been here. | May 29 11:58 |
DaemonFC | If they had to live and share a land border with not one or two or three but like at least 10 third world countries (which seem to be able to use Mexico as a conduit, and the Mexican government doesn't care), they'd probably be fed up with this too. | May 29 11:59 |
DaemonFC | Once they get here, they spread out, and when they spread out, you start getting a bunch of rapes, drugs, murders, shootings, hit and run felonies, etc. | May 29 12:00 |

DaemonFC | Which some people are lucky enough to mostly avoid because they live on an island country where the ocean discourages mass waves of immigrants who are going there to sign up for welfare and go on a crime binge. | May 29 12:00 |
DaemonFC | You see how that worked out with the Tsarnaev brothers. | May 29 12:01 |
techrights-news | If one counts revisions and drafts, Techrights has just passed over 160001 (33.5k of which final) | May 29 12:02 |
DaemonFC | Russia even warned the United States multiple times, but the Obama administration and State of Massachusetts (Democrats) were letting them live here anyway. Paying for their college, while many Americans can't get help. Eating off of our food stamp program. While they told their classmates they hated America and wanted to kill us, and the police never did anything about it. | May 29 12:02 |
DaemonFC | And we all saw how THAT went. | May 29 12:02 |
DaemonFC | They were straight up living here for free, going to college for free, eating for free, free healthcare. Things Americans can't get. And they were plotting the Boston Marathon attack and not even being quiet about it. | May 29 12:03 |
DaemonFC | And the government did nothing to stop them. Want more free shit? Here you go! | May 29 12:04 |
DaemonFC | So no, I don't like that, and anyone who tells me I should like that can eat my shit. | May 29 12:05 |
matey | far from being pedantic, the goal of holding people accountable to such bullshit is the only way to get past the obstacle they create. | May 29 12:10 |
DaemonFC | I have to get used to the Buick again. | May 29 12:21 |
DaemonFC | I managed to make the brakes so touchy that they stop the car really fast. Faster than what I'm used to in the Impala. | May 29 12:21 |
DaemonFC | Oh well. At least if someone darts out in front of the car, I might be able to stop in time. | May 29 12:22 |

XRevan86 | Such might. Almost the whole force is focused on Sieverodonetsk right now, and has it been taken yet? That would be a no. | May 29 13:19 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, I can only imagine how badly the Russians are doing if the US is concerned that we're almost to the minimum acceptable level of stingers and javelin systems. | May 29 13:21 |
DaemonFC | Of course, who better to use them on? | May 29 13:21 |

DaemonFC | It would have cost us about as much either way. | May 29 13:24 |
DaemonFC | Might as well blow up a bunch of Russian equipment so they can't use it on anyone. | May 29 13:24 |
DaemonFC | Plus we now know how well our defensive weapons work on their stuff. Pretty well, actually. Even the latest stuff. | May 29 13:24 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC: I wonder how resilient the latest addition to the heavy vehicle arsenal to the Javelin's and such is: T-62's. | May 29 13:26 |
XRevan86 | Reports indicate they'll be given to the "DPR" forces. | May 29 13:27 |
XRevan86 | Considering how they trained and used the mobilised soldiers, this might just be an improvement for them. | May 29 13:28 |
DaemonFC | It doesn't seem like Russia has any armored vehicles that hold up well against the Javelin. | May 29 13:34 |
DaemonFC | They sent on tanks that use their most advanced armor and the Javelin made short work of those. | May 29 13:34 |
DaemonFC | But it seems a lot of the Russian stuff is obsolete, and even when Ukraine is using some stuff that old, it had the design flaws fixed, and Russia's haven't had similar retrofits. | May 29 13:35 |
DaemonFC | Lots of corruption in the Russian military seems to have taken its toll. | May 29 13:35 |
DaemonFC | Their stuff wasn't even up to fighting in Ukraine even when the US has been hesitant to give Ukraine heavier weapons. | May 29 13:36 |

bnchs | activelow really hates sgi | May 29 15:49 |

XRevan86 | matey: That's the big problem of XFS, yes. | May 29 15:49 |
matey | okay thats why i hate it as a default | May 29 15:49 |
matey | it takes up your partition and you have to move it to make room for other distros | May 29 15:50 |
matey | its like uefi for your partition table | May 29 15:50 |
matey | but if it wasnt default, i wouldnt care | May 29 15:50 |
matey | because people would use it less, and those who did its their choice | May 29 15:50 |
matey | and yes, ubuntu made it default, no other reason trisquel would | May 29 15:50 |
matey | trisquel rarely innovates anything unless they have to remove something and replace it | May 29 15:51 |

XRevan86 | In activelow's terminology stable means "a codebase that doesn't change much". | May 29 15:59 |
XRevan86 | So maybe that's true. | May 29 15:59 |
activelow | yes, that's one criteria | May 29 15:59 |

MinceR | criteria is plural | May 29 16:00 |

XRevan86 | It's something to keep in mind, because most people by "stable" mean "the FS doesn't break easily", so there can be misunderstanding. | May 29 16:00 |
XRevan86 | XFS used to break but it was stable, now it works well but it's unstable. | May 29 16:01 |

matey | not because of an increase in horses | May 29 16:04 |
activelow | had to migrate my IRC stuff first, just shut down irssi some minutes ago | May 29 16:05 |
activelow | bcachefs is interesting: because it incorporates some replication/backup mechanism, it supports compression | May 29 16:05 |
activelow | disadvantage of bcachefs: linux-only to my knowledge | May 29 16:06 |
XRevan86 | I thought the disadvantage would be that it's still in heavy development. | May 29 16:06 |
XRevan86 | It is cool though. | May 29 16:06 |
activelow | among the many filesystems, ext2 (with the non-ext4 kernel module) seems the most portable one remaining | May 29 16:07 |
XRevan86 | No, FAT32 is the most portable. | May 29 16:07 |
activelow | if you wanted to consider FAT32 stable, then go for it | May 29 16:07 |
XRevan86 | It's practically rock solid. | May 29 16:07 |
MinceR | FAT32 is patent-encumbered, isn't it? | May 29 16:07 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: I thought every single one of them expired. | May 29 16:08 |

MinceR | maybe i'm thinking of exFAT | May 29 16:08 |

MinceR | poetteringaudio is magic | May 29 16:40 |
activelow | PulseAudio is an ALSA frontend, not sure what pulseaudio is good for | May 29 16:41 |
XRevan86 | It's also going obsolete. | May 29 16:41 |
activelow | if a software mixer was required, then dmix existed with ALSA | May 29 16:41 |
activelow | then besides pulseaudio, jack-audio existed (jack1 was written in C, jack2 is written in c++) | May 29 16:41 |
MinceR | it's good for introducing skips into your audio output | May 29 16:42 |
XRevan86 | And couldn't even resample. | May 29 16:42 |
MinceR | and wasting resources | May 29 16:42 |
MinceR | and dropping random files all over your filesystem | May 29 16:42 |
MinceR | presumably the skipping is where the "pulse" comes from | May 29 16:42 |
activelow | i won't consider any of those anymore: jack2, pulseaudio | May 29 16:42 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as skips, is in fact, underruns/overruns, or as I've recently taken to calling it, xruns. | May 29 16:42 |
MinceR | :> | May 29 16:42 |
activelow | if jack2 didn't require c++, and jack1 is deprecated | May 29 16:43 |
XRevan86 | activelow: Are ye seriously considering JACK for everyday use? | May 29 16:43 |
activelow | XRevan86: jack is almost equivalent to pulseaudio, and jack was the better choice | May 29 16:44 |
activelow | and i don't use jack anymore, because jack2/c++ | May 29 16:44 |
XRevan86 | Where "almost equivalent" means "has a completely different use-case". | May 29 16:44 |

activelow | maybe i got another few hours to review bcachefs today | May 29 16:47 |
XRevan86 | activelow: "and jack was the better choice" <- I'm sure ye never actually used either. | May 29 16:47 |
XRevan86 | Otherwise ye would've known how silly this sounds. | May 29 16:47 |
activelow | XRevan86: i tested alsa/jackd/fluidsynth with a MIDI keyboard while ago | May 29 16:47 |
activelow | and noticed, jackd is redundant for the use-case i tested | May 29 16:48 |
activelow | jackd is required to dynamically change configuration of an audio setup (re-plugging audio-channels) | May 29 16:48 |
XRevan86 | activelow: Recommend me a patchbay for pure ALSA. | May 29 16:48 |
activelow | i didn't need this, and configured midi channel plugging directly with alsa | May 29 16:48 |
activelow | XRevan86: shell script | May 29 16:49 |
activelow | anyway, meanwhile i removed fluidsynth too, because it depends on GNU Glib, and i do not accept GNU Glib anymore | May 29 16:49 |
activelow | what remains is timidity++ to fiddle with MIDI | May 29 16:49 |
activelow | got no time currently | May 29 16:49 |
XRevan86 | https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/rncbc/qpwgraph/-/raw/v0.3.1/src/images/qpwgraph_screenshot-1.png | May 29 16:49 |
XRevan86 | So this looks like something doable in ALSA? | May 29 16:49 |
activelow | XRevan86: jackd does use ALSA, jackd (and pulseaudio) are a frontend for ALSA | May 29 16:51 |
activelow | although, i do not know what this screenshot shall demonstrate, to do with ALSA or jackd or pulseaudio | May 29 16:52 |
XRevan86 | I noticed I forgot to write "pure ALSA" but decided no one would nitpick in the context. | May 29 16:52 |
activelow | the difference between ALSA and jackd frontend is this, dynamic-configurations are easier to accomplish with jackd to re-plug channels and their configuration | May 29 16:53 |
XRevan86 | activelow: It's an input/output graph, where the ins and outs can be manually redirected. | May 29 16:53 |
activelow | with ALSA i can write an asoundr, and not alter this once configured | May 29 16:53 |
XRevan86 | activelow: So pure ALSA can distinguish individual channels? | May 29 16:54 |
activelow | and then alsa got some utilities to plug varios channels | May 29 16:54 |

MinceR | iirc you can create virtual devices in pure ALSA, at least with dmix | May 29 17:04 |
XRevan86 | matey: There are caveats, i.e. there are plug-ins that make libasound redirect output into whatever one desires. | May 29 17:04 |
matey | that sounds like a worthwhile feature, at least in theory | May 29 17:05 |
XRevan86 | Well, yea, it's simple enough that this works. | May 29 17:05 |
XRevan86 | matey: The caveat is that libasound doesn't mean "pure ALSA" on its own, it should also actually pipe sound into ALSA directly for that to be true. | May 29 17:06 |
XRevan86 | Although in context of Firefox it doesn't matter for instance, there "pure ALSA" means "libasound". | May 29 17:07 |

matey | Also ext2 can't be grown when mounted. <- ext3 can? | May 29 18:18 |
XRevan86 | matey: yes | May 29 18:19 |
activelow | don't know yet, if the old ext2 kernel-driver got journaling | May 29 18:20 |
activelow | re-thinking e2compr, that's not desireable too, because not portable | May 29 18:20 |
XRevan86 | ext2 not having journaling also puts me in doubt over whether the old ext2 kernel-driver has journaling. | May 29 18:21 |

activelow | i do not need journaling if, if a sudden power-loss doesn't push the filesystem into an inconsistent state | May 29 18:25 |
activelow | currently on the list remaining are: ext2/(3) and nilfs2 | May 29 18:26 |

matey | hold onto your anus because it could get away from you | May 29 18:27 |
activelow | the nilfs2-utilities contain a bug somewhere, when used as aarch32 binaries on top of an aarch64 kernel, which is what i couldn't repair yet with nilfs2 | May 29 18:27 |
activelow | and nilfs2 has one disadvantage over ext2: there is only some rudimentary read-only implementation with NetBSD for it | May 29 18:28 |
activelow | instead, ext2 is implemented with all *bsd, and windows too | May 29 18:28 |

DaemonFC | BtrFS is obviously where Linux is heading as far as a "de facto" file system default. | May 29 19:27 |
DaemonFC | Unlike Canonical's other blunders, ZFS won't be easy for their customers to migrate away from.. | May 29 19:28 |
activelow | DaemonFC: didn't kernel migrate to 64bit timestamps? | May 29 19:28 |
DaemonFC | Yes, but I don't believe that Ext2 is included in that. | May 29 19:28 |
DaemonFC | In Ext4, it requires that the file system be of the 64-bit variant, which I believe can only be done at creation time, and I think the 32-bit variant of Ext4 was dropped from e2fsprogs to make dropping it from the kernel too at some point easier to do. | May 29 19:29 |
activelow | if ext4 was available with *BSD and windows, i would re-consider it | May 29 19:30 |

DaemonFC | So I see Microsoft's off to the races again with another halfassed attempt to get anyone to pay attention to Windows on ARM. | May 29 20:52 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, ^ | May 29 20:53 |
schestowitz_TR2 | DaemonFC: too late | May 29 20:53 |
DaemonFC | It's barely powerful enough to run the included ARM software, so I suppose you can forget about x86 emulation. | May 29 20:53 |
schestowitz_TR2 | it's also too far | May 29 20:53 |
schestowitz_TR2 | *fat | May 29 20:53 |

schestowitz_TR2 | just getting windows tpoo boot ona pi or olpc means nothing | May 29 20:53 |
schestowitz_TR2 | if you wait a very long time | May 29 20:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | and then everything si far too slow | May 29 20:54 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, As far as too fat, I mean obviously. You'd think that, starting over, with no legacy baggage, they could cut away some of the things that only made sense in the context of running x86 Windows software. | May 29 20:54 |
DaemonFC | And that might reduce the weight. | May 29 20:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | you can stuff a horse into a van | May 29 20:54 |
schestowitz_TR2 | but you would not then take the live horse into the intersttae in avan | May 29 20:55 |
DaemonFC | I mean, the sole purpose of the WinSXS folder is so that old programs will find the libraries they need to run. | May 29 20:55 |
DaemonFC | But there aren't any old programs from 20, 10, 5, or even 1 year ago on ARM for Windows. | May 29 20:55 |
DaemonFC | There's basically what comes with the developer kit and nothing else at the moment. | May 29 20:55 |

TechrightsBot-tr | Hello World! I'm TechrightsBot-tr running phIRCe v0.77 | May 29 21:33 |
DaemonFC | When I was a kid and I wanted to have a TV in my bedroom, my dad was so cheap that I ended up making a UHF/VHF antenna out of an old copper coat hanger and some aluminum foil and copper wiring I cut off a tube he had in the garage. | May 29 21:34 |
DaemonFC | It worked fine. I could get TV stations from Fort Wayne, Muncie, and Indianapolis pretty clearly. They were 35 miles northeast, 30 miles southeast, and 85 miles south. | May 29 21:35 |
DaemonFC | There was plenty of free stuff over the air back then. | May 29 21:36 |
DaemonFC | You didn't really need cable. | May 29 21:36 |
DaemonFC | Our public television has always been badly under-funded, even before Bush and Trump. | May 29 21:36 |
DaemonFC | Even in the 90s, PBS affiliates had to gather up small donations to pool together to buy rebroadcasting rights to things like Doctor Who, The Red Green Show, and Red Dwarf. | May 29 21:37 |
DaemonFC | So it was almost all British and Canadian public TV they just bought broadcast rights too. Very little was US-based other than Nova, Reading Rainbow, Sesame Street, some nature documentaries, etc. | May 29 21:38 |
DaemonFC | The US-based stuff wasn't all crap, but a lot of it was for children. | May 29 21:38 |
DaemonFC | They had Bill Nye the Science Guy. He was always fun to watch even if he was a bit remedial. | May 29 21:39 |
DaemonFC | I doubt adults today have the science education of a 6th grader back when he was on the air originally, before Netflix brought him back briefly. | May 29 21:39 |
DaemonFC | There's no reason to educate people to be scientific. To have a mind that wants to know "why" or "how". It doesn't help corrupt politicians who want to line their pockets with your money and control feebleminded people and keep them bickering with each other over nonsense. | May 29 21:40 |
DaemonFC | Everything Orwellian has now happened, in this country. Permanent war, "telescreens" (iPads, Windows, iPhones, etc.), an economy based on keeping neighbors bickering with each other with brief respites to watch porn and sporting events and to buy lottery scratchers, and cheap alcohol. | May 29 21:42 |
DaemonFC | Nineteen Eighty-Four was optimistic. It presumed that there would be a lot of people such as Winston Smith, who knew better, but went along with it anyway because they were being watched. | May 29 21:43 |
DaemonFC | In fact, today, 90% of the public is basically so stupid that they don't know how to participate in basic civic process and it's probably better if they don't vote at all. | May 29 21:43 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, I don't think you want to admit it, but your country has gone there and bought the T-shirt too, although it may not be as bad in some ways, it's actually more pervasive in others. | May 29 21:46 |
DaemonFC | I mean, you have the NHS, what's left of it. Good for you. I hope you can see a doctor this year. I hope you're satisfied with the taxes. | May 29 21:46 |
DaemonFC | But then, you have Johnson's crime bill which is something that would make most Republicans here go "What the fuck!". | May 29 21:46 |
DaemonFC | Trump actually did have the legal authority to do what he was threatening to do during the riots. The President has the authority to send in the marines when the state governors can't or won't protect people's lives, property, and civil rights. | May 29 21:47 |
DaemonFC | Kennedy did it with Alabama. Trump could have done it with Chicago. | May 29 21:48 |
DaemonFC | In fact, it's been done. The reason he didn't actually go through with it is because I think he is smarter than he projects to get votes. | May 29 21:48 |

The rioters started shooting at the army, the army army started shooting back. It was a disaster. | May 29 21:49 |

schestowitz_TR2 | and then by the "me tooers" of michael | May 29 21:50 |
DaemonFC | But many younger people today don't know anything about history, even of their own country. Even major events such as Watergate, the Civil Rights movement, or the Vietnam War. | May 29 21:50 |
schestowitz_TR2 | e.g. <techrights-news> Two energy wasters https://www.techradar.com/news/amd-could-be-readying-a-super-cheap-gpu-to-tackle-nvidias-rumored-gtx-1630 we need to innovate in another direction... | May 29 21:50 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-AMD could be readying a super-cheap GPU to tackle Nvidia’s rumored GTX 1630 | TechRadar | May 29 21:50 | |
DaemonFC | So it's impossible to avoid the same things happening today. | May 29 21:50 |
DaemonFC | Because politicians can keep tricking the latest generation, when they don't know where the proposals lead last time. | May 29 21:51 |
DaemonFC | So there's not just an incentive to keep people scientifically illiterate, but also illiterate of history. | May 29 21:51 |
DaemonFC | We already have a fresh batch of adults, who *can* vote, who don't know what happened on September 11, 2001, or why the Iraq War happened. | May 29 21:52 |
DaemonFC | So yeah, fucked. And we're fucked because we have two parties who each have their own reasons to keep people dumb. | May 29 21:53 |
DaemonFC | The left wants people dumb so they can be controlled with handouts. | May 29 21:53 |
DaemonFC | The right wants people dumb so they'll be religious and easy to manipulate with issues like reproductive rights. | May 29 21:53 |
DaemonFC | When you start educating yourself, you start forming your own variety of opinions about things, and then nobody likes you, because 90% of the population is stupid and is completely in the bag for the leftists or the right-wing fascists and Nazis. | May 29 21:54 |
DaemonFC | I intend to split my ballot this year, honestly. I honestly intend to do that. We'll see how my slate of Republican candidates did. I sure as hell don't want them to get the US Senate seat, but I think other than that, anything goes. | May 29 21:55 |
DaemonFC | I didn't think any of the Republican candidates for the US Senate were any good. They were all some form of Trump asshole-licker, so I just voted strategically and for the very worst one while I was at it. | May 29 21:56 |
DaemonFC | And there's a logic to that, right? If they're all going to be openly racist, especially against Asian people, then pick the one that's very VERY open about it. The thing is, the incumbent Senator is an Asian woman and she's a veteran of the war in Iraq, and you know, if this guy I voted to saddle the Republicans with wins and goes to a live debate with her in Illinois, the result will be he gets demolished in the election. | May 29 21:57 |
DaemonFC | Because he won't be able to contain himself in the debate if he hasn't bothered to on his website. | May 29 21:58 |
DaemonFC | For the rest of the ballot, I voted towards moderate Republicans. There's a black man running for Governor, a South Korean immigrant running for Secretary of State, and a former Democrat turned Republican who used to be our Sheriff running for the Supreme Court. It's pretty diverse, none of them are extremists. Richard Irvin (the candidate for Governor) says he actually wants to expand Illinois state-level protections for immigrant families | May 29 22:00 |
DaemonFC | beyond what Pritzker did. | May 29 22:00 |
DaemonFC | You never hear about these people. | May 29 22:00 |
DaemonFC | I think it's time we changed that and push things back to roughly where the party was in the 1960s before Nixon started openly courting southern racists. | May 29 22:00 |
DaemonFC | That's where things started to go very badly wrong. You let all of that trash in and they're your base now. And you own that, and they start making more demands with the power you handed them. | May 29 22:01 |
psydroid2 | schestowitz_TR2, they are going to be in a world of hurt if performance of ARM and RISC-V processors are going to reach their levels at a fraction of power consumption and cost. Too many people are dismissing this because of some holy grail of "binary compatibility", but why would Microsoft keep trying to get people to develop and make available applications for Windows on ARM then | May 29 22:01 |

schestowitz_TR2 | psydroid2: I do almost all my programming on arm | May 29 22:07 |
schestowitz_TR2 | because of a number of factors | May 29 22:07 |
schestowitz_TR2 | all our critical files are also on amr | May 29 22:07 |
schestowitz_TR2 | *arm | May 29 22:07 |
schestowitz_TR2 | xx86 is good for heavy computation | May 29 22:07 |
schestowitz_TR2 | like vidoe processing, which is just automated and goes on for hours | May 29 22:08 |
bnchs | i think mips is good for both cases | May 29 22:09 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, Cars are all basically BMW now. | May 29 22:10 |
DaemonFC | They take these cheap little engines and put twin overhead cams and turbochargers on them. | May 29 22:10 |
DaemonFC | They're not built to last. | May 29 22:10 |
psydroid2 | mips barely exists anymore outside of loongson | May 29 22:10 |
DaemonFC | The only upside with a Chevy or Ford is at least the car doesn't cost a fortune, so when it finally takes a dump on you, you'll be out LESS money. | May 29 22:10 |
psydroid2 | and higher-end arm is also fast while still using much less power than x86 | May 29 22:10 |
DaemonFC | I'm highly skeptical of anyone who claims you can reliably get more than 200 horsepower out of a 1.5 liter engine. | May 29 22:11 |
DaemonFC | You can, if you're not at all concerned about longevity. | May 29 22:11 |
DaemonFC | A 200 horsepower engine without a turbo and overhead cams, is going to be about three times the size of what these companies are shipping now. | May 29 22:14 |
DaemonFC | And it'll go for 400,000 miles or so because there's not as much strain on any particular part of the engine, and the engine is made out of more durable materials. | May 29 22:15 |
DaemonFC | They don't want to do this anymore. | May 29 22:15 |
DaemonFC | At some point, I guess, GM realized it's easier to ship crap in a Buick and get away with it because the owners tend to be old and not drive them much anyway. There's lots of cars like mine that go on the market and they're 14-15 years old with 50,000-60,000 miles. | May 29 22:16 |
DaemonFC | They don't drive them around a lot like young people do. You see a lot of 2018s, 2020s....They already have over 100,000 miles on them. And because they model year is a lot newer, you have to pay twice as much or more. | May 29 22:17 |
DaemonFC | Everyone around me who goes car shopping says the same thing "It's hard to find anything under $20,000 that's not absolute garbage on its way to the dump. | May 29 22:17 |
DaemonFC | So I mean, even with the rust repair job and the brake overhaul, and the wheel bearing replacements, and the new tensioner, and the flushings, filters, oil change, and belt replacement. I'm doing a hell of a lot better than that. And the car looks good, it drives good. It's totally quiet while you're driving it. The transmission is smooth. | May 29 22:18 |
DaemonFC | It's easier to find a older car that has some sin going on and fix it than it is to try to find something that's good to go right now. | May 29 22:19 |
DaemonFC | You will pay double, or more if you want something that is not going to need some work done up front. | May 29 22:19 |
techrights-news | "I am extremely against how the reddit algorithm squashes genuine taste and voice." gemini://alex.flounder.online/journal.gmi | May 29 22:20 |
DaemonFC | I almost never drive anything that was newer than about 14 years old when I bought it. And if you can believe it, I've only had one car break down and strand me somewhere in the last 22 years. | May 29 22:24 |
DaemonFC | It's because I generally watch what the hell I'm buying. | May 29 22:24 |
DaemonFC | Then I pay some guy to fix anything that was wrong with it when I bought it that's going to be a reliability issue at some point. | May 29 22:25 |
DaemonFC | My mom gets random cars off some buy here pay here lot and they fall apart right away and she still owes payments and can't afford to fix anything, and biting her nails hoping that the payments are over before she loses that car. | May 29 22:26 |
DaemonFC | She's bought them new and destroyed them in less than three years before though. | May 29 22:26 |
DaemonFC | She's particularly hard on transmissions. Many of her cars have serious transmission problems, mostly because she doesn't service them like you ought to and because she doesn't wait until the car is fully stopped before switching gears. | May 29 22:27 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, She was offering to hand me that 2011 Impala LTZ she has right now. | May 29 22:27 |

DaemonFC | I have no idea what she is doing to her washing machines. Probably treating them like her Impalas and Pontiacs. | May 29 22:29 |
DaemonFC | If you could run the washing machine straight over a 2.5 foot curb, she'd do it. | May 29 22:30 |
DaemonFC | She did that to one of her cars and blew out both the tires and dented the rims. | May 29 22:30 |
DaemonFC | Because she hit the gas and instead of turning, she just drove over a curb. | May 29 22:31 |

matey | i was like "yeah, better use 30-year-old linix kernel, since nt is old and obsolete" | May 29 23:10 |
psydruid | they actually wanted to say that Microsoft has only been applying layers of duct tape since the early days instead of thoroughly reworking the kernel to become better and more maintainable | May 29 23:12 |
matey | they should have said that | May 29 23:12 |
psydruid | but that's squarely a Microsoft problem | May 29 23:12 |

psydruid | but that's how mankind rolls | May 29 23:27 |
matey | no, thats what mincer thinks too | May 29 23:27 |
matey | thats how capitalism rolls | May 29 23:27 |
matey | and despite what he says about "if you call everything you dont like 'capitalism'" | May 29 23:27 |
matey | anti-capitalists tend to have a better (clearer, more precise) definition of capitalism than the capitalists do | May 29 23:27 |
MinceR | i'd like to see such a definition, and i'd like to see it applied consistently | May 29 23:28 |
matey | in the same way that atheists often know more about the bible than the nutjubs praying to the guy with bad hair on the television | May 29 23:28 |

activelow | nowadays, linux kernel is abused as corporate dump-yard, i had preferred IBM/DEC/Microsoft dumped their own systems with anti-competitive crap, instead of poisoning linux kernel | May 29 23:29 |
activelow | and GNU, particularly GNU compiler | May 29 23:29 |
matey | i have a guess who bnchs is, but obviously i wouldnt say | May 29 23:29 |
matey | i wouldnt even hint | May 29 23:29 |
psydruid | I believe linux was always destined to become a corporate dumping ground | May 29 23:30 |
