DaemonFCI 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

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

DaemonFCI can reconstitute that with dehumidifier water.May 29 00:27
DaemonFCIt 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
DaemonFCschestowitz_TR2, The flatkill troll (on github) recommends Qubes OS and says "It's not Linux." and that "Linux is dangerous. Use Windows 10.".May 29 00:28
DaemonFCMinceR, Your car is dangerous. Buy a Pinto! Or a Kia. Kias are probably easier to find now. It's the same thing really.May 29 00:29

mateyyou know geordi was too nice to say itMay 29 00:31
mateybut picard would have never made it in engineeringMay 29 00:31
MinceR:>May 29 00:31
mateyi mean he wouldnt have even made it in tech supportMay 29 00:32
mateyi used to have a modem with FIVE lights on the front-- how am i supposed to tell him?May 29 00:32
mateyTHERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!May 29 00:32
MinceRlolMay 29 00:32
mateyactually i take it back, thats every tech support call ive ever hadMay 29 00:32
mateyhe would be perfect for that, if the starship captain thing doesnt work outMay 29 00:32
mateyhello 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
mateyom-nip-o-tent is how he pronounces it, you seeMay 29 00:35

*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrightsMay 29 00:35
mateyits subtle, but the shakespearan "penchant" is sort of a H-omage to what kirk didMay 29 00:36
mateyKIRK! you dont-- NEED-- an-- internet connection!May 29 00:37
mateyJEAN-LUC-- you dont NEEEEEEED an internet connectionMay 29 00:37
mateycontinutity is very important to star trekMay 29 00:37
mateybut ONLY from series to seriesMay 29 00:37
mateyNOT from episode to episode or season to season, obviouslyMay 29 00:37
*psydroid2 has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)May 29 00:37
mateycontinutity <- i did it againMay 29 00:38
matey"it's 'conti-nyuuudity...May 29 00:38
matey"no! no its notMay 29 00:38
matey"where are your closing quotes?May 29 00:38
matey"rick berman ran off with them, he said he had an ideaMay 29 00:38
matey"go to red alertMay 29 00:38
chicksahoyCitizenfour was an awesome documentaryMay 29 00:39
mateyim pretty sure all tech support on earth is done by cardassian interrogatorsMay 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
mateyi reset packet is a completely imaginary thing, like a wotsitMay 29 00:46
mateyso is a reset packet, but its a different typeMay 29 00:47
mateya reset packet is a half truth, and therefore a half-lieMay 29 00:47
mateywhat it really means isMay 29 00:47
mateythey 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
mateybut, if it was a SERIOUS problem, they would probably mention it (probably)May 29 00:48
mateyso 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
mateybut you have to call and get a reset packet in order for them to tell you thisMay 29 00:48
DaemonFCI noticed Capital One has a lot of different phone numbers.May 29 00:48
mateyor, you can NOT call and guess how serious it is instead of simply getting a reset packet.May 29 00:49
DaemonFCIf you have a Savor One card, you can call that number and it sends you to someone in the US.May 29 00:49
DaemonFCIf you have the Quicksilver or Walmart Rewards cards, those send you to the Philippines.May 29 00:49
mateyalternatively, a reset packet is a digital version of a communion wafer, except for modemsMay 29 00:49
mateysome modems are religious and this is what they have to receive each week in order to stay in good graces with their virtual deityMay 29 00:50
mateybut i like my first theory betterMay 29 00:50
mateyvery observant modems will pretend to have connection problems, just to receive itMay 29 00:50
mateytheir god is willing to overlook this little white lie, as long as its for a higher causeMay 29 00:51
mateythis puts the isp in the role of the churchMay 29 00:51
mateybut personally im surprised they havent already said theyre "bigger than jesus" like the beatles didMay 29 00:52
mateyi think some of the isps in the states already claim to be "bigger than satan"May 29 00:54
mateyat&t handed out shirts with this slogan at one of their annual picnicsMay 29 00:55
mateyibm replied "no, you arent bigger than me"May 29 00:55
mateybut thats a marketshare argument, the same kind that makes windows seem like it mattersMay 29 00:56

*matey (~matey@y73dbcj7dvbju.irc) has joined #techrightsMay 29 01:41
mateyi found out what happens when you mock a modems religious beliefsMay 29 01:41
mateybut i think the issue was simpler than that and slightly more technicalMay 29 01:41
mateynew labour managed to hollow out the "welfare state" more efficiently than thatcher, according to some (british) right wing paperMay 29 01:41
mateythis is way more relevant than it soundsMay 29 01:41
mateyblair signed onto (perpetrated, participated directly in) war crimes, but beyond thatMay 29 01:42
mateyrelevant because while in office his foreign policy was no different from putinsMay 29 01:42
mateythough xrevan may protest (i welcome him to do so)May 29 01:42
mateyi think the similarities are more important, which isnt the same as saying the differences are irrelevantMay 29 01:42
mateyi wanted to mention the hypocrisy of new labour talking about progressMay 29 01:43
mateythey moved towards authoritarianism-- towards pushing people into destitutionMay 29 01:43
mateytowards policies that disenfranchised so many people on both sides of the aisle that it contributed to brexit (imo)May 29 01:44
mateybut 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 ukraineMay 29 01:45
mateyblair has the nerve to describe today (that is, this year) his term as one of PROGRESS!May 29 01:45
mateywhat he did was turn the labour party into a complete farceMay 29 01:45
mateysince then, others have come along and made it worse stillMay 29 01:46
mateybut theyll call it progressMay 29 01:46
mateythis is not even anti-labour, its anti bullshitMay 29 01:46
mateygutting something and calling it progress should sound familiar to anyone who gives a shit about free softwareMay 29 01:46
mateybecause thats what theyve been doing since 2019May 29 01:46
mateygutting it and calling it progressMay 29 01:46
mateyits not an isolated thing at allMay 29 01:46
mateymore like a sign of the timesMay 29 01:46
matey(no, not those times. though mincer has his fingers crossed)May 29 01:47
mateyibm and red hat, same dealMay 29 01:47
mateywe dont want to gut red hatMay 29 01:47
mateywe just want to fund itMay 29 01:47
mateywho believed them? May 29 01:47
mateywho believed it would get better with ibm owning it?May 29 01:47
mateybecause everyone knows, the real problem red hat was having was lack of fundingMay 29 01:48
mateyit wasnt lack of integrity, abundance of greed, megalomania or anything like THATMay 29 01:48
mateythey only needed more money to thriveMay 29 01:48
mateynow they have it, everything is greatMay 29 01:48
mateyoh, wait, noMay 29 01:49
mateyits much worseMay 29 01:49
mateywhos surprised?May 29 01:49
mateyid like to see the labour party fix itselfMay 29 01:49
mateyunlike the fsf, i think its a distinct possibilityMay 29 01:49
mateywhy?May 29 01:49
mateyunlike with the fsf, there are loads of people committed to restoring the left wing spirit of the labour partyMay 29 01:49
mateyof course like the fsf, those people have fuck-all in terms of power and influence at the momentMay 29 01:50
mateywell, thats not entirely true. theyre building it slowlyMay 29 01:50
mateygradually taking it back (unlike the fsf)May 29 01:50
mateyit IS possible to do itMay 29 01:50
mateybut only if you have enough people who know what theyre doingMay 29 01:50
mateyand of course, none of this is (anytime soon) reflected in the candiatesMay 29 01:50
mateytheyre as bad as ever, and the people who actually want progress arent fooled by this nonsenseMay 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
mateyprogress is not about tiny reforms that are followed by two steps backMay 29 01:51
mateyif all you can get is a tiny reform-- you call it what it is, and keep fighting for moreMay 29 01:52
mateyyou dont say "oh hey, this is great! WE WON!"May 29 01:52
mateyopen source does thatMay 29 01:52
mateyit does reform tony blair style-- kill hundreds of thousands of iraqis for profit, put single mums on the street and say its PROGRESSMay 29 01:53
mateyopen source is what red hat is all aboutMay 29 01:53
mateyits the new labour of free softwareMay 29 01:53
mateythis is by all means, the fake leftMay 29 01:54
mateybut its not the party i dislike, its the people who have taken it over, who are fraundsMay 29 01:54
mateyfucksakeMay 29 01:54
mateyfraudsMay 29 01:54
mateythey may also be frondsMay 29 01:55
mateyall mr stallman is going to do from now onMay 29 01:55
mateyis kowtow to tiny reforms and endorse them, and wave like the queenMay 29 01:55
mateybut like with new labour, these tiny reforms are actually steps backwards, framed to look like steps forwardMay 29 01:56
mateyits not progress when mums suddenly cant pay the rent or feed her kidsMay 29 01:56
mateyits not progress when a million cameras go up on every cornerMay 29 01:56
mateyits not progress when every browser has fucking telemetryMay 29 01:56
mateybut the worthless software foundation will find a way to make it sound goodMay 29 01:57
mateybecause they want your moneyMay 29 01:57
mateysure, they can always get handouts from corporationsMay 29 01:57
mateybut that looks badMay 29 01:57
mateythey want YOU to make them look like they stand for anythingMay 29 01:57
mateyespecially, more than ever, now that they stand for FUCK ALLMay 29 01:57
mateythough people who know better wont fall for itMay 29 01:57
mateythat goes without sayingMay 29 01:57
mateybut there are people who claim to know anything that DO fall for itMay 29 01:58
mateyor act like they doMay 29 01:58
mateywe should feel sorry for those peopleMay 29 01:58
mateybut not too muchMay 29 01:58
mateyafter all, theyre part of the problemMay 29 01:58

mateythey dont have to be, but they are for nowMay 29 01:59
mateyand just like pretending that the fsf stands for anything, when its plainly clear they dontMay 29 01:59
mateypretending that anyone is helping by propping up bullshit is the same problem on a local levelMay 29 02:00
mateyand just as pointlessMay 29 02:00
mateypeople shouldnt live in fear of saying its bullshitMay 29 02:00
mateybut thats what all this pc bullshit was aboutMay 29 02:00
mateyits not because they careMay 29 02:00
mateyits because they dont want people to be able to say what a worthless job theyre doingMay 29 02:00
mateythey came in to replace the regime with nothing at allMay 29 02:00
mateytheyve done itMay 29 02:00
mateynow, you cant say itMay 29 02:00
mateythey want you to think you cant say itMay 29 02:00
mateybut the more people say how shit it is, the more likely progress will come, from somewhereMay 29 02:01
mateynot from the fsf, theyve sold outMay 29 02:01
mateytheyre open source nowMay 29 02:01
mateytheyre not the fsfMay 29 02:01
mateynever will beMay 29 02:01
mateythe only group of people working their arses off to change the fsf are the shillsMay 29 02:01
mateyand the lukewarm shits who love tiny reforms that are really steps backwardMay 29 02:02
mateylieplanet is their celebration of mediocrityMay 29 02:02
mateythe freedom ladder to nowhereMay 29 02:02
mateyin ten years, the freedom ladder will be propped up against an alley wall, holding a sign asking for spare changeMay 29 02:03
mateyon a nearby corner maybe the fsf will be doing the same May 29 02:03
mateyin 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
mateyi mean hes not that much worse off than john lennon ffsMay 29 02:04
mateyone was a hacker, the other a world starMay 29 02:04
mateyboth were assassinated by people who are sociopathic and insaneMay 29 02:04
mateywho simply wanted to make a name for themselvesMay 29 02:05
mateyat his expenseMay 29 02:05
mateybut the freedom ladder is such a jokeMay 29 02:05
mateybecause the people who talk about it dont know where theyre goingMay 29 02:05
mateyor what theyre doingMay 29 02:05
mateythey have no planMay 29 02:05
mateythey dont understand freedom-- at allMay 29 02:05
mateythey dont stand for anything, clearlyMay 29 02:05
mateythey bullshit themselves so they can bullshit other people, so they can raise funds THAT DO NOTHINGMay 29 02:06
mateyso they can have fake reforms that go backwardsMay 29 02:06
mateyAND THATS "the freedom ladder"May 29 02:06
mateyits definite step downMay 29 02:06
mateyjust like stallmansMay 29 02:06
mateythe future is uglyMay 29 02:07
mateyif we were drunk with anything, its sobriety nowMay 29 02:07
mateywaking up next an ugly unrecognisable faceMay 29 02:07
mateythat used to be free softwareMay 29 02:07
mateypeople will cling to the past, but that only gets you so muchMay 29 02:08
mateyat some people theyll have to deal with this ugly futureMay 29 02:08
mateySOME PEOPLE are going to instead believe these liars and hopeless hopersMay 29 02:08
mateyand see if they have anything to say at allMay 29 02:08
mateyspoiler: they have nothing to sayMay 29 02:08
mateybecause they dont know anything about freedomMay 29 02:08
mateyfreedom is hard workMay 29 02:09
mateythese people came in and thought they could make it easierMay 29 02:09
mateythought it was hard because stallman made it difficultMay 29 02:09
mateyfreedom is difficultMay 29 02:09
mateyif you get rid of the people who understand it, it doesnt get easierMay 29 02:09
mateybecause it wasnt them who made it so much troubleMay 29 02:09
mateysurprise, it was freedom itself thats an insufferable pain in the arseMay 29 02:09
mateyyou thought stallman was bad?May 29 02:09
mateywait until you (lieplanet cunts) see a mirror somedayMay 29 02:09
mateystallman wasnt half as badMay 29 02:10
mateyno one wants anything to do with a bunch of know-nothing lying cunts who think the fsf wasnt authoritarian enoughMay 29 02:10
mateynew labourMay 29 02:10
mateyits not labour at allMay 29 02:10
mateynew fsfMay 29 02:10
mateyits not free software at allMay 29 02:10
mateylots of luck, fuckersMay 29 02:10
mateythere will be free softwareMay 29 02:11
mateyit wont come from these pretendersMay 29 02:11
mateywho know nothing about itMay 29 02:11
mateywe knew they were fakes when they were taking overMay 29 02:11
mateynow theyve taken over. still fake as hellMay 29 02:11
mateyyou want obedience, youll have obedient foolsMay 29 02:12
mateyfree software will come from people who dont get permissionMay 29 02:14
mateynot from stallmanMay 29 02:14
mateynot from corporationsMay 29 02:14
mateynot from lieplanetMay 29 02:14
mateyonly now its going to take longerMay 29 02:14
mateythats what counterrevolutions doMay 29 02:14
mateythey slow things downMay 29 02:14
DaemonFC<matey> alternatively, a reset packet is a digital version of a communion wafer, except for modemsMay 29 02:14
mateynot insignificantlyMay 29 02:14
DaemonFCI thought you couldn't take communion if you had an abortion.May 29 02:15
mateyweve lost a good decade to shit like thisMay 29 02:15
mateybut the counterrevolution is decades oldMay 29 02:15
mateythe movement still had enough momentum that a decade into open sourceMay 29 02:16
mateyfree software was still goingMay 29 02:16
mateyfrom 2011 it started to slow down, and since 2014 its been in a slow reverseMay 29 02:16
mateyhistory repeats itself-- first as a tragedyMay 29 02:16
mateythen as a farceMay 29 02:16
mateythe fsf is that farce. lieplanet is that farceMay 29 02:16
mateyfor software to be free, now it will have to move past ALL of thatMay 29 02:17
mateyor, it can play pretend, with a bunch of idiots who make arts and crafts out of their armpit hair or somethingMay 29 02:17
mateyand have the audacity (the gall as well as the shitty telemetry-laden former application) to say stallmans weirdMay 29 02:18
mateythats what happens when everything is run by hypocrites and backstabbersMay 29 02:18
mateyseriouslyMay 29 02:18
mateywhat did you suspect?May 29 02:18
mateypeople think if we pretend its getting better, it magically willMay 29 02:20
mateynot if we cant be honestMay 29 02:20
mateywhen they ban honesty, its clear they cant work within that sort of restrictionMay 29 02:20
mateythey need to be able to bullshit peopleMay 29 02:20
mateyfor their plan to workMay 29 02:20
mateythat by itself should clue people in to what the future looks likeMay 29 02:20
mateythey didnt ban criticism of the people who came before, obviouslyMay 29 02:21
mateyyoure only banned from criticising the changesMay 29 02:21
mateywhat else do you need to know about the new fsfMay 29 02:21
mateywhat else would be necessary to prove what its future looks like?May 29 02:21
mateysome people just want to pretendMay 29 02:22
mateythats fine. but theyre idiotsMay 29 02:22
mateywhats more, they wont bring us anything but fake reforms, fake progress, steps backwardsMay 29 02:22
mateythats enough reason to not suck up to themMay 29 02:22
mateyother than the fact that they dont deserve respectMay 29 02:22
mateywho respects such people?May 29 02:23
mateyonly the same sort of personMay 29 02:23
mateyidiots, fakes. shills.May 29 02:23
mateybut lets be nice. there are more suckers than deliberate shillsMay 29 02:23
mateyshills never learn. suckers sometimes get smarterMay 29 02:23
mateyso we can hope for the best in that regard, as long as we dont get too optimisticMay 29 02:24
mateybut sucking up to them is a hilarious non-plan sort of planMay 29 02:24

DaemonFCYou can see the entirety of the source, which technically complies with the license, but all you can really do with it is build it.

DaemonFCThere's no "international law" regarding immigration.May 29 11:44
mateyits 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 openMay 29 11:45
DaemonFCEach 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
mateybut again, this is counter to international lawMay 29 11:45
DaemonFCAgain, there is no real "international law".May 29 11:45
DaemonFCThere 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
mateybeyond 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 countriesMay 29 11:46
DaemonFCTreaties are sort of an agreement in principle that lacks an enforcement mechanism.May 29 11:46
mateythese days, no one cares about that. at least by numbers.May 29 11:46
DaemonFCWell, bad apples ruin it for everyone.May 29 11:47
mateyin the usa theyre no different. "come here legally"May 29 11:47
DaemonFCWhy do you think I'm going through such hell with US Immigration with Mandy?May 29 11:47
DaemonFCEveryone tries to game the system somehow.May 29 11:47
DaemonFCThey get caught illegally immigrating here so they throw some bullshit fear of returning to their country.May 29 11:47
mateythey 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 invasionsMay 29 11:47
mateyi mean, they dont want "illegal invasions" of people fleeing bad countriesMay 29 11:48
DaemonFCThey 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
mateybut illegal invasions OF those countriesMay 29 11:48
mateythe entire thing is based on opportunism and double standardsMay 29 11:48
DaemonFCThat is what these immigrant caravans are.May 29 11:48
DaemonFCThey're declaring an invasion of the United States, which opens up an interesting concept.May 29 11:48
mateywe can go there and kill people "because tyrants"May 29 11:48
mateybut if those same people who would be "liberated"May 29 11:48
DaemonFCTexas Governor Abbott says that Texas is being invaded, which is true.May 29 11:49
mateyDONT come here, STAY there, wait for us to invade and exploit your resources and set up a puppet governmentMay 29 11:49
mateythen you wont NEED to fleeMay 29 11:49
DaemonFCAnd the US Constitution says that a state cannot declare war or use military force, "unless it has actually been invaded".May 29 11:49
DaemonFCSince 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
mateyof course theres a word for that. bollocks.May 29 11:50
mateythe first world runs entirely on bullshitMay 29 11:50
DaemonFCTexas is arresting and detaining immigrants by themselves.May 29 11:50
mateythe rest of the world isnt exactly a haven of humanity eitherMay 29 11:50
DaemonFCThey can do that under all sorts of state laws.May 29 11:50
mateyyou can hardly blame people like mincer for coming to the conclusion he doesMay 29 11:51
mateythough at the moment the problem is not enough people give a shit at the same timeMay 29 11:51
mateyit isnt even the fact that they dont agree on a solutionMay 29 11:51
DaemonFCThey 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
mateybecause when enough people actually give a shit, agreeing (sufficiently at least) on solutions is a sort of natural byproduct to some degreeMay 29 11:52
mateypeople are willing to take solutions seriously enough when they agree on the nature of the problemMay 29 11:52
mateywhen enough people actually give a shit, it stops being rocket science.May 29 11:52
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCWe 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
mateyits only hopelessly complicated when not enough people agree on the nature of the problemMay 29 11:52
DaemonFCNo thanks.May 29 11:52
mateysimilarly, when enough people realise why free software is failing, the solutions wont seem so complicatedMay 29 11:53
mateythey werent when free software actually understood the problemMay 29 11:53
DaemonFCIf 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
mateyyears of lobbying have created DIFFERENT, unsolvable problems, and softer, easier to implement, and utterly useless "solutions"May 29 11:53
DaemonFCEveryone else should get a one way ticket back where they came from if they didn't enter legally.May 29 11:53
mateyit really is failing to understand the problem that makes it so impossible to solveMay 29 11:54
DaemonFCWe shouldn't be heartless, but we shouldn't be chumps just because their country isn't so good.May 29 11:54
mateyand getting people to not understand the problem is a core goal of fake progressMay 29 11:54
mateyincluding lieplanet, open source, and the new fsfMay 29 11:54
DaemonFCIf it was a good place, they wouldn't want to come here. Would they?May 29 11:54
DaemonFCBut that's not our problem.May 29 11:54
mateyits built on pure bullshitMay 29 11:54
mateyopportunism and double standardsMay 29 11:54
DaemonFCYou 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
DaemonFCThat's how you weaken it.May 29 11:55
DaemonFCGenerally, like "gun violence" we get hated on by a bunch of foreigners who have never even been here.May 29 11:58
DaemonFCIf 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
DaemonFCOnce 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

DaemonFCWhich 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
DaemonFCYou see how that worked out with the Tsarnaev brothers.May 29 12:01
techrights-newsIf one counts revisions and drafts, Techrights has just passed over 160001 (33.5k of which final)May 29 12:02
DaemonFCRussia 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
DaemonFCAnd we all saw how THAT went.May 29 12:02
DaemonFCThey 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
DaemonFCAnd the government did nothing to stop them. Want more free shit? Here you go!May 29 12:04
DaemonFCSo no, I don't like that, and anyone who tells me I should like that can eat my shit.May 29 12:05
mateyfar 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
DaemonFCI have to get used to the Buick again.May 29 12:21
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCOh well. At least if someone darts out in front of the car, I might be able to stop in time.May 29 12:22

DaemonFCThose Stinger systems have to be replaced every 15 years or so anyway because of the non-serviceable battery if nothing else.May 29 13:22

TechrightsBot-trHello World! I'm TechrightsBot-tr running phIRCe v0.77May 29 21:33
DaemonFCWhen 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
DaemonFCIt 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
DaemonFCThere was plenty of free stuff over the air back then.May 29 21:36
DaemonFCYou didn't really need cable.May 29 21:36
DaemonFCOur public television has always been badly under-funded, even before Bush and Trump.May 29 21:36
DaemonFCEven 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
DaemonFCSo 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
DaemonFCThe US-based stuff wasn't all crap, but a lot of it was for children.May 29 21:38
DaemonFCThey had Bill Nye the Science Guy. He was always fun to watch even if he was a bit remedial.May 29 21:39
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCThere'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
DaemonFCEverything 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
DaemonFCNineteen 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
DaemonFCIn 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*doucheMay 29 21:45
DaemonFCschestowitz_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
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCBut then, you have Johnson's crime bill which is something that would make most Republicans here go "What the fuck!".May 29 21:46
DaemonFCTrump 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
DaemonFCKennedy did it with Alabama. Trump could have done it with Chicago.May 29 21:48
DaemonFCIn 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
psydroid2I don't know if Moronix has been posting more AMD articles, but their new processors for later this year aren't even going to perform much better than their 2-year-old ones nor consume less powerMay 29 21:49
DaemonFCHe's undoubtedly aware of what happened when there were riots in Detroit and Chicago in the 1960s and the military was sent in to restore order. And they didn't. The riots got worse. The rioters started shooting at the army, the army army started shooting back. It was a disaster.May 29 21:49
DaemonFCNeighborhoods on fire. Damage that can still be seen today.May 29 21:49

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-AMD could be readying a super-cheap GPU to tackle Nvidia’s rumored GTX 1630 | TechRadarMay 29 21:50
DaemonFCSo it's impossible to avoid the same things happening today.May 29 21:50
DaemonFCBecause politicians can keep tricking the latest generation, when they don't know where the proposals lead last time.May 29 21:51
DaemonFCSo there's not just an incentive to keep people scientifically illiterate, but also illiterate of history.May 29 21:51
DaemonFCWe 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
DaemonFCSo 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
DaemonFCThe left wants people dumb so they can be controlled with handouts.May 29 21:53
DaemonFCThe right wants people dumb so they'll be religious and easy to manipulate with issues like reproductive rights.May 29 21:53
DaemonFCWhen 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
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCAnd 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
DaemonFCBecause he won't be able to contain himself in the debate if he hasn't bothered to on his website.May 29 21:58
DaemonFCFor 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
DaemonFCbeyond what Pritzker did.May 29 22:00
DaemonFCYou never hear about these people.May 29 22:00
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCThat'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

psydroid2mips barely exists anymore outside of loongsonMay 29 22:10
DaemonFCThe 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
psydroid2and higher-end arm is also fast while still using much less power than x86May 29 22:10
DaemonFCI'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
DaemonFCYou can, if you're not at all concerned about longevity.May 29 22:11
DaemonFCA 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
DaemonFCAnd 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
DaemonFCThey don't want to do this anymore.May 29 22:15
DaemonFCAt 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
DaemonFCThey 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
DaemonFCEveryone 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
DaemonFCSo 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
DaemonFCIt'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

activelowi used tmux for many years, i consider dvtm superior, because the expected feature-set is complete with dvtm, and dvtm is ~90% smaller than tmux (linux of code, and binary size)May 29 22:59

mateylennart poettering doesnt think systemd-multiplexd is too long a nameMay 29 23:02
activelowi could wipe GNU readline, GNU glib... by coincidence it seems, alot of the GNU aren't necessary anymore tooMay 29 23:02

mateythe weiss angel of gnu/linuxMay 29 23:03
activelowdon't know, if any other debugger exists, to avoid GDB, although that's not necessary, GCC it is which causes endless painMay 29 23:03

activelowto remain fair with systemd... sysvinit wasn't particularly good beforeMay 29 23:04
MinceRit also wasn't particularly badMay 29 23:05
mateywhat, when it was optional?May 29 23:05
activelowMinceR: without OpenRC my system boots twice as fast, with the exact same services startedMay 29 23:05
activelowand i did enable parallelism with openrc, with my custon rc script i didn'tMay 29 23:06
MinceRso what's in place of openrc?May 29 23:06
activelowMinceR: /bin/sh with a while ; do ; done to re/spawn gettysMay 29 23:06
mateyhonestly if it wasnt for sane options like rc.d May 29 23:06
MinceRoh, you're the one who decided that reaping zombies was for squaresMay 29 23:06
mateyid just do like dr sixel and run my own non-initMay 29 23:07
mateyreally, autoexec was all i neededMay 29 23:07
mateyand rc.d does about as much to get in your way or tell you what to do as autoexec.bat didMay 29 23:07
mateynow thats considerateMay 29 23:07
mateywhen you see the painstaking effort made to NOT make rc.d into a pain in the arseMay 29 23:08
mateyits basically the opposite of systemd in every wayMay 29 23:08
mateyexcept its modern enoughMay 29 23:08
mateyfor people who cant bear to use something more than 5 years old (like epstein. no, wait)May 29 23:08
mateywhat do think jeff?May 29 23:08
mateyi dont know, 18 years is kind of obsoleteMay 29 23:09
mateytoday someone online said nt was crappy security because the kernel is 20 years oldMay 29 23:09
matey...May 29 23:09
mateyright conclusion, butMay 29 23:09
mateylinux is olderMay 29 23:09
mateyi thought it was a weird argumentMay 29 23:09
mateyi was like "yeah, better use 30-year-old linix kernel, since nt is old and obsolete"May 29 23:10
psydruidthey 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 maintainableMay 29 23:12
mateythey should have said thatMay 29 23:12
psydruidbut that's squarely a Microsoft problemMay 29 23:12
mateyindeedMay 29 23:12
mateyafaik theyve never written a kernel on their ownMay 29 23:12
mateydos was based on qdos, they bought thatMay 29 23:13
mateynt was based on joint research with ibmMay 29 23:13
mateyif microsoft is so great at making an osMay 29 23:13
mateyhow come theyve never actually made one?May 29 23:13
psydruidthat's the elephant in the roomMay 29 23:13

activelowdon't know, why the DEC developers joined MicrosoftMay 29 23:21
DaemonFCDEC sued them and it settled out of court for undisclosed amounts of money to DEC, but some say it was almost $700 million over 20 years ago.May 29 23:22

mateythats how capitalism rollsMay 29 23:27
mateyand despite what he says about "if you call everything you dont like 'capitalism'"May 29 23:27
mateyanti-capitalists tend to have a better (clearer, more precise) definition of capitalism than the capitalists doMay 29 23:27
