XRevan86 | matey: A whole action scene :) | Jul 29 00:19 |
matey | a very familiar one from childhood | Jul 29 00:19 |
*XRevan86 never saw it. | Jul 29 00:20 | |
matey | we had that on BETAmax | Jul 29 00:20 |
XRevan86 | Until now of course. | Jul 29 00:20 |
matey | it must be weird to see the western version | Jul 29 00:20 |
matey | for the first time | Jul 29 00:20 |
XRevan86 | I've seen some episodes of it, not this one. | Jul 29 00:20 |
techrights-news | I wish I could taper off my meds gemini://hyperreal.coffee/gemlog/2022-07-28-wish-I-could-taper-off-meds.gmi | Jul 29 00:20 |
matey | the animation was very familiar for those who saw the book illustrations | Jul 29 00:21 |
matey | id say the book was more old-fashioned (understandably) and the animation was more cute | Jul 29 00:21 |
matey | but they were similar nonetheless | Jul 29 00:22 |
matey | obviously the book animations were sparse by comparison, so a lot had to be imagined and elaborated on | Jul 29 00:22 |
matey | and i hate disney, but i like tron and this as well | Jul 29 00:22 |
XRevan86 | matey: Disney makes a lot of good stuff. | Jul 29 00:22 |
matey | the original tron was disney | Jul 29 00:23 |
matey | they do | Jul 29 00:23 |
XRevan86 | Which is practically a given considering the sheer volume %) | Jul 29 00:23 |
matey | theyre a bit like debian | Jul 29 00:23 |
matey | they get some very talented people | Jul 29 00:23 |
matey | then treat them like shit | Jul 29 00:23 |
matey | then benefit from their efforts | Jul 29 00:23 |
XRevan86 | matey: I've seen Tron, never really got into it though. | Jul 29 00:23 |
matey | it helps to be a kid in the 80s | Jul 29 00:24 |
XRevan86 | The visuals are interesting but the story is not my thing. | Jul 29 00:24 |
matey | if the idea is to find tron amazing | Jul 29 00:24 |
matey | it isnt strictly required, but it surely helps | Jul 29 00:24 |
XRevan86 | Tron: Legacy is terrible regardless at least :) | Jul 29 00:24 |
matey | yeah a lot of it was visuals | Jul 29 00:24 |

DaemonFC | "(MP3 patents are expired as of 2017, and it’s very widely used even now, but Fraunhofer pressured the media to lie and suggest you couldn’t use it anymore due to being in the public domain. The media in the US is very corrupt and usually spins losses for corporations as a negative thing, even when they benefit the public. Such as with generic prescription drugs.)" | Jul 29 04:12 |
britney | most of my music is in ALAC format, apple lossless, which has an open source decoder with a patent waiver | Jul 29 04:16 |
MinceR | i have music in all sorts of formats, but ALAC is not one of them :> | Jul 29 04:20 |

phanes | too bad there's not any apps for it | Jul 29 04:42 |
bnchs | >phone that runs GNU/Linux | Jul 29 04:44 |
bnchs | >apps | Jul 29 04:44 |
MinceR | pretty sure GNU/Linux "apps" run on it | Jul 29 04:44 |
phanes | o rly? check your bank account with it | Jul 29 04:44 |
MinceR | it has several web browsers with which that could be done, if you have the patience | Jul 29 04:45 |
MinceR | (though the pro probably handles it better than the non-pro) | Jul 29 04:45 |
phanes | you know some banks will only let you do transfers through the app | Jul 29 04:45 |
MinceR | also, i didn't know bank accounts were the sole purpose of "apps" | Jul 29 04:45 |
bnchs | >some banks will only let you do transfers through the apps | Jul 29 04:45 |
bnchs | then change banks | Jul 29 04:45 |
phanes | sounds like excuses | Jul 29 04:45 |
MinceR | maybe find a bank that doesn't suck so hard | Jul 29 04:45 |
bnchs | fuck banks that do that kind of bullshit | Jul 29 04:45 |
phanes | >"we launched an app platform that substitutes web browsers for daily use applications common to all of its known competitors" | Jul 29 04:46 |
bnchs | not everyone uses phones | Jul 29 04:47 |
phanes | >not everyone uses phones | Jul 29 04:47 |
bnchs | and? | Jul 29 04:47 |
phanes | i mean, if you dont see the fail there, explaining it isn't going to help you | Jul 29 04:48 |
phanes | in any case i hope it does well, it'll need to build bridges with product teams to make it viable | Jul 29 04:49 |
MinceR | 29 054629 < phanes> >"we launched an app platform that substitutes web browsers for daily use applications common to all of its known competitors" | Jul 29 04:49 |
MinceR | where is this from? | Jul 29 04:49 |
britney | i don't have a bullshit bank, they support any browser | Jul 29 04:51 |
MinceR | i have a bullshit bank and they still support several browsers | Jul 29 04:51 |
phanes | look im just saying, if you don't use your bank's app, you're probably not doing much with your bank | Jul 29 04:52 |
phanes | its one example of all of the apps that a person uses heavily through any given day | Jul 29 04:52 |
phanes | its a good platform idea with a poorly thought out implementation | Jul 29 04:53 |
britney | the problem with android is that a lot of phones simply won't work with LineageOS | Jul 29 04:53 |
britney | you gotta do research before buying | Jul 29 04:53 |
phanes | yeah | Jul 29 04:54 |
phanes | lineage supports up to samsung M20 | Jul 29 04:54 |
britney | i dont want some bullshit firmware with apps i cant remove | Jul 29 04:54 |
phanes | sounds like i gotta wait a few years to try it out | Jul 29 04:54 |
MinceR | i stopped using my bank's app when they decided they force a replacement and then charge a monthly fee for the new app, just as i was considering switching banks anyway | Jul 29 04:54 |
britney | oddly enough the google pixel phones are firmware friendly | Jul 29 04:55 |
MinceR | oh, and also, the signup process for the new app was also a lot of pain | Jul 29 04:55 |
phanes | im pretty happy with my s22 but admittedly i severely dislike android | Jul 29 04:55 |
MinceR | too bad google pixel phones are not memory card friendly | Jul 29 04:55 |
MinceR | and not headset friendly either | Jul 29 04:56 |
phanes | they try-harded the marketing for mine though its like this big wall of text for the name when you boot it up, its like SAMSUNG GALAXY ULTRA PLUS 22 or something like that | Jul 29 04:56 |
MinceR | samsung branding as usual | Jul 29 04:56 |
phanes | like if you hold it wrong it might blast off into space | Jul 29 04:56 |
britney | the only thing i dislike about ios is that i cant put music on it with linux :/ | Jul 29 04:56 |
britney | so i dont plan to get another iphone because of that | Jul 29 04:57 |
phanes | i dont touch anything apple | Jul 29 04:57 |
MinceR | i'm not going to list the things i dislike about hypeOS | Jul 29 04:57 |
MinceR | i'll take that time and spend it on sleep instead | Jul 29 04:57 |
britney | lol | Jul 29 04:57 |
phanes | what i also dislike about android is they found a way to pretend its linux while somehow making you unable to use anything but the vendor-provided image | Jul 29 04:58 |

matey | /me is mesmerised by the simplicity (it is inefficient at least) of an algorithm he wrote | Jul 29 09:37 |
matey | im not great at this stuff, never claimed to be | Jul 29 09:37 |
matey | but what it does is let you pipe text in, and it sorts the text by linecount per "group" | Jul 29 09:38 |
matey | a group being 1 or more consecutive lines without any blank lines between | Jul 29 09:38 |
matey | so if you concatenate 3 walls of text that are 170, 50 and 128 lines each | Jul 29 09:40 |
matey | it will give you those back with the 50-line one first, then the 128-line one, etc | Jul 29 09:40 |
matey | theres only one buffer (a list) and no dictionaries and no sort command / function | Jul 29 09:41 |
matey | i was SUPER lazy that day, or i might have traded simplicity for efficiency or something | Jul 29 09:41 |
matey | but i was trying to figure out how the program worked, as i wrote it some time ago, and i opened it up to look at the code and i was like | Jul 29 09:42 |
matey | /me turns it upside down, looks behind the screen | Jul 29 09:42 |
matey | THATS IT? | Jul 29 09:42 |
matey | wheres the rest of it | Jul 29 09:42 |
matey | its not really bragging if you know its not great | Jul 29 09:42 |
matey | but it still impresses me | Jul 29 09:43 |
matey | if i had made it more efficient, btw, it might use a lot more ram | Jul 29 09:44 |
matey | and i wanted it to work on large files | Jul 29 09:44 |
matey | but i could have designed it better | Jul 29 09:44 |

matey | thats the joke anyway | Jul 29 10:02 |
matey | if he was entirely serious it wouldnt be comedy, or something | Jul 29 10:03 |
matey | you can extend this to wikipedia in a similar fashion, but i (technically) wont | Jul 29 10:04 |
matey | the number of times ive gone to wikipedia to look something up only to find it was gone makes it somewhat of a farce | Jul 29 10:08 |
matey | its extremely useful anyway obviously | Jul 29 10:08 |
matey | but the overall sentiment is one of disgust | Jul 29 10:08 |
matey | i like wikipedia but i hate it that much more | Jul 29 10:09 |
matey | people must think i hate everything, but that isnt remotely true | Jul 29 10:09 |

matey | the free software movement WAS created | Jul 29 11:06 |
matey | it DID pose a serious threat to microsoft | Jul 29 11:06 |
matey | it could again | Jul 29 11:06 |
matey | what STOPPED it was counterrevolution | Jul 29 11:07 |
matey | open source was a wildly effective counterrevolution | Jul 29 11:07 |
matey | so if we did all that again | Jul 29 11:07 |
matey | INCLUDING attack attack attack | Jul 29 11:07 |
matey | and we told open source counterrevolutionaries to fuck themselves with a tree | Jul 29 11:07 |
matey | we could do it again | Jul 29 11:08 |
matey | it worked the first time, the major mistake was listening to these corporate-sucking cunts | Jul 29 11:08 |
matey | that took free software completely off course | Jul 29 11:08 |
matey | do it again, learn from history | Jul 29 11:08 |
matey | and attack attack attack | Jul 29 11:09 |
matey | THAT can work | Jul 29 11:09 |
matey | but even then, its not the same as what they did to us. because we dont have the msm (they dont care. they never do) and we dont have 3000 traitors to giafam on our side | Jul 29 11:09 |
matey | maybe someday we can inspire people to defect | Jul 29 11:09 |
matey | and theres no time like today to start trying-- provided people understand | Jul 29 11:10 |
matey | its going to take time to rebuild | Jul 29 11:10 |
matey | and open source was never an ally | Jul 29 11:10 |
*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights | Jul 29 11:10 | |
matey | open source helped free software about as much as switzerland helped the british in wwii | Jul 29 11:10 |
*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techrights | Jul 29 11:11 | |
matey | while attack attack attack may not have the same effect when it moves in the opposite direction | Jul 29 11:12 |
matey | when seen as victorious-- as meaningful, powerful | Jul 29 11:12 |
matey | it can inspire other people to attack and to join | Jul 29 11:12 |
matey | the fsf used to inspire people that way | Jul 29 11:12 |
matey | now everything it does is empty, meaningless, easy to dismiss | Jul 29 11:12 |
matey | "we fight for" no you dont | Jul 29 11:12 |
matey | you dont at all | Jul 29 11:13 |
matey | you do nothing | Jul 29 11:13 |
matey | you | Jul 29 11:13 |
matey | DID, once | Jul 29 11:13 |
matey | for a long time, more than osi, more than mozilla | Jul 29 11:13 |
matey | more than esr | Jul 29 11:13 |
matey | esr didnt fight. he schemed. he may have schemed with good intentions | Jul 29 11:13 |
matey | he thought he was SO fucking smart | Jul 29 11:14 |
matey | today we see how smart he really was | Jul 29 11:14 |
matey | :P | Jul 29 11:14 |
matey | other people took chances, esr thought he could trick our opponent into losing | Jul 29 11:14 |
matey | it was pretty fucking naive | Jul 29 11:14 |
matey | listening to that bullshit and taking it seriously was naive on the part of free software | Jul 29 11:15 |
matey | open source was a delusional approach | Jul 29 11:15 |
*horseface has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Jul 29 11:15 | |
matey | based on completely misunderstanding the opponent | Jul 29 11:15 |
matey | and overestimating esrs intelligence | Jul 29 11:15 |
matey | his entire strategy was nonsense, historically easy to debunk | Jul 29 11:16 |
matey | but we didnt realise that | Jul 29 11:16 |
matey | i think some people always knew what a crock it was | Jul 29 11:16 |
matey | we should have listened to them more closely | Jul 29 11:16 |
matey | stallman, for his part, did far too much to underestimate microsoft | Jul 29 11:17 |
matey | and open source | Jul 29 11:17 |
matey | if we intend to make those mistakes again | Jul 29 11:17 |
matey | theres not much point in trying | Jul 29 11:17 |
matey | i think theres a point, but only if we learn from that lesson | Jul 29 11:17 |

matey | imagine competing with microsoft for years-- as a software company | Jul 29 11:18 |
matey | only to get bought by them | Jul 29 11:18 |
matey | "this is great! weve finally become so FORMIDABLE that they want to own what we do!" | Jul 29 11:18 |
matey | "yeah but once they own us theyll just destroy whats theirs" | Jul 29 11:18 |
matey | "why would they do that to an asset so good they cant compete?" | Jul 29 11:19 |
matey | gee, how about because-- its exactly what theyve always done | Jul 29 11:19 |
matey | and stupid fucking free/open | Jul 29 11:19 |
matey | decided they were the exception to this rule | Jul 29 11:19 |
matey | dum dum dum dum dum | Jul 29 11:19 |
matey | as dum as thinking ibm wouldnt destroy red hat | Jul 29 11:20 |
matey | b | Jul 29 11:20 |
matey | theyve certainly gutted it nicely | Jul 29 11:20 |
psydruid | maybe gutting red hat was even the plan | Jul 29 11:20 |
matey | of course it was the plan | Jul 29 11:21 |
matey | ibm Is Basically Microsoft | Jul 29 11:21 |
matey | this is what they do | Jul 29 11:21 |
matey | its like elections with a good candidate | Jul 29 11:21 |
matey | a good candidate has no chance | Jul 29 11:22 |
psydruid | red hat shopping itself around to companies including microsoft should have been a clear enough message | Jul 29 11:22 |
matey | their own party destroys them | Jul 29 11:22 |
matey | then the candidate ENDORSES the "real" chance of winning | Jul 29 11:22 |
matey | ibm will lock in red hat customers | Jul 29 11:22 |
matey | then move them gradually to whatever they want | Jul 29 11:22 |
matey | its not a product-- its a cattle chute. | Jul 29 11:22 |
*horseface (~horseface@zisfjvu4z99eq.irc) has joined #techrights | Jul 29 11:22 | |
matey | they own the chute, they can move people where they want it to go | Jul 29 11:23 |
matey | microsoft does this with windows | Jul 29 11:23 |
psydruid | so now all of the commercial distributions with developers working on the core stack are in the Microsoft/IBM camp | Jul 29 11:23 |
matey | the sole purpose of windows-- isnt software | Jul 29 11:23 |
matey | its to make customers do things microsoft wants | Jul 29 11:23 |
matey | so now all of the commercial distributions with developers working on the core stack are in the Microsoft/IBM camp <- thanks to systemd | Jul 29 11:23 |
matey | theyre working for ibm, for free | Jul 29 11:24 |
matey | most are working for free | Jul 29 11:24 |
matey | to find out what ibm is really paying their "employees" | Jul 29 11:24 |
matey | take the people they pay a salary to | Jul 29 11:24 |
matey | then divide that by the number of people working on it | Jul 29 11:24 |
matey | then multiply THAT by the number of people it takes for volunteers to add up to a 40 hour work week | Jul 29 11:25 |
matey | then you have what people are really making per hour | Jul 29 11:25 |
matey | commercial free software is a sweatship | Jul 29 11:25 |
matey | sweatshop | Jul 29 11:25 |
matey | if its for a cause that benefits the world-- its real volunteer work | Jul 29 11:25 |
matey | if its for a cause that COSTS the world and benefits a multinational | Jul 29 11:25 |
matey | thats exploitation, plain and simple | Jul 29 11:25 |
matey | theyre working for a rounding error salary beneath minimum wage | Jul 29 11:26 |
*CrystalMath has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Jul 29 11:26 | |
matey | red hat is a sweatshop | Jul 29 11:26 |
matey | debian is a sweatshop too | Jul 29 11:26 |
matey | this isnt free software, its slave software | Jul 29 11:26 |
matey | stallman is dead | Jul 29 11:26 |
matey | red hat is eating his corpse | Jul 29 11:27 |
matey | hes being slowly digested | Jul 29 11:27 |
*techrights_guest|23 (~3ed8d634@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techrights | Jul 29 11:28 | |
matey | people would do well to remember what things were like, when we were winning | Jul 29 11:28 |
matey | it wasnt just the results that were different | Jul 29 11:28 |
matey | we still did things the right way (mostly) back then | Jul 29 11:28 |
matey | im not saying the big shift towards corporate dick sucking was the only mistake worth learning from | Jul 29 11:28 |
psydruid | a whole approach doesn't just take software into account but also hardware, it's just that people don't realize their own power when it comes to buying products and supporting these corporations | Jul 29 11:28 |

*techrights_guest|23 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) | Jul 29 11:29 | |
matey | a whole approach doesn't just take software into account but also hardware <- it didnt have to when the fsf started | Jul 29 11:29 |
matey | but it does now | Jul 29 11:29 |
matey | the fsf can say thats not their focus-- thats fine | Jul 29 11:29 |
matey | but like with free culture | Jul 29 11:29 |
psydruid | Intel is moving support for graphics that are merely 2 years old to legacy status | Jul 29 11:29 |
matey | if thats not their focus, they need to stay out of free hardwares way with their bullshit | Jul 29 11:29 |
matey | i dont mean agree on everything | Jul 29 11:29 |
matey | i mean dont use their support network to keep free hardware from succeeding | Jul 29 11:30 |
matey | fsf isnt a monopoly | Jul 29 11:30 |
matey | but sometimes it behaves in a way that would be antitrust, if a for-profit did it | Jul 29 11:30 |
psydruid | I expect these corporations to interfere with free hardware when it starts hitting their bottom line | Jul 29 11:30 |
matey | i mean they abuse their influence to spread bullshit-- not as a rule, but some important and key exceptions | Jul 29 11:30 |
matey | we cant allow that with free hardware | Jul 29 11:30 |
matey | free culture is guilty of the same | Jul 29 11:31 |
matey | cc betrayed the whole world-- twice! | Jul 29 11:31 |
matey | first regarding their own mission | Jul 29 11:31 |
matey | then regarding free softwae | Jul 29 11:31 |
matey | cc should be scrapped | Jul 29 11:31 |
matey | I expect these corporations to interfere with free hardware when it starts hitting their bottom line <- hell they do already | Jul 29 11:31 |
matey | they always will | Jul 29 11:31 |
matey | without an anti-corporate movement | Jul 29 11:32 |
matey | i dont think this stuff will ever work for more than 20 years | Jul 29 11:32 |
matey | without having to start over again | Jul 29 11:32 |
matey | some people, lessig for example | Jul 29 11:32 |
matey | they realise theres a bigger picture and they go off to fight that | Jul 29 11:32 |
matey | its noble | Jul 29 11:32 |
matey | but someone has to stay behind and stay focused on the smaller stuff | Jul 29 11:33 |
matey | like its not enough to fight corporations-- and ignore what we were doing before | Jul 29 11:33 |
matey | but its also not enough to do what we were doing before-- and ignore corporate tyranny | Jul 29 11:33 |
matey | the fsf does the latter, and fails | Jul 29 11:33 |
matey | humanity has to stand up now | Jul 29 11:33 |
matey | or it will be mowed down | Jul 29 11:33 |
matey | theres no more time | Jul 29 11:34 |
matey | and the new fsf can eat a dick | Jul 29 11:34 |
matey | despite all this, ive spent years looking for hope somewhere | Jul 29 11:35 |
matey | it exists | Jul 29 11:35 |
matey | we have a chance | Jul 29 11:35 |
matey | its just that we dont have all the time in the world | Jul 29 11:36 |
matey | what people need to do is think of something that might help-- in some way | Jul 29 11:36 |
matey | and do it | Jul 29 11:36 |
matey | and encourage each other to do the same | Jul 29 11:36 |
matey | but also, warn each other not to fall for the same bullshit again | Jul 29 11:37 |
matey | thats where theres a lot of slack | Jul 29 11:37 |
matey | the old bullshit is pretty relentless | Jul 29 11:37 |
matey | if you want to win against old bullshit, you have to be pretty relentless too | Jul 29 11:37 |
matey | esr never was | Jul 29 11:37 |
matey | relentless compromise isnt what im talking about here | Jul 29 11:37 |
matey | join us now and shareholder value <- the esr song | Jul 29 11:38 |
matey | stupid dick | Jul 29 11:38 |
matey | from the beginning of open source, it looked less stupid | Jul 29 11:38 |
matey | here we are on the other side, and theyre even dumber | Jul 29 11:39 |
matey | if they were smart at all, they would see where they fucked up | Jul 29 11:39 |
matey | but it was never about that. they only care about what they ACTUALLY HAVE now | Jul 29 11:39 |
matey | and what they have now, is dick. | Jul 29 11:39 |
matey | and theyre happy. | Jul 29 11:39 |
matey | so they never wanted very much. just dick. | Jul 29 11:39 |
matey | thats stupid | Jul 29 11:39 |
matey | "youll have absolutely dick, and youll be happy" | Jul 29 11:40 |
matey | open source dovetails so nicely with that shit | Jul 29 11:40 |
matey | its like the historical revisionism of southern slavery | Jul 29 11:41 |
matey | our slaves were happy slaves! we gave them a HOME, we gave them FOOD | Jul 29 11:41 |
matey | we were doing something GOOD! | Jul 29 11:41 |
matey | fuck off | Jul 29 11:41 |
matey | red hat and debian are sweatshops | Jul 29 11:41 |
*britney has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Jul 29 11:41 | |
matey | and they do the same to users | Jul 29 11:42 |
*KiKi has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Jul 29 11:44 | |
psydruid | x86 hardware sales are down, but I don't know if this is going to be a permanent thing | Jul 29 11:45 |
matey | i mean, graphs like that go /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ | Jul 29 11:45 |
matey | but not in this direction -----------> | Jul 29 11:45 |
matey | they do that in a general downward trend | Jul 29 11:45 |
psydruid | also IBM POWER and Z don't seem to be used that much anymore | Jul 29 11:45 |
matey | Z :) | Jul 29 11:45 |
matey | because naming their technology "swastika" would be too awkward | Jul 29 11:46 |
psydruid | so if the hardware isn't bought, you also cut off their software supply | Jul 29 11:46 |
matey | yeah well cutting off the spread of ibm software is like cutting off the spread of hiv | Jul 29 11:46 |
matey | it can only be a good thing | Jul 29 11:46 |
matey | too bad that includes gcc (needs forked) | Jul 29 11:47 |
matey | gcc may be nearly impossible to fork, but llvm is worse in that regard | Jul 29 11:47 |
matey | it includes gdb as well | Jul 29 11:47 |
matey | ibm has bigger assets than red hat | Jul 29 11:47 |
matey | yes i consider gcc more valuable than red hat | Jul 29 11:47 |
matey | but theyre joined at the fucking hip | Jul 29 11:48 |
matey | suppose ibm goes under, what happens to gcc | Jul 29 11:48 |
matey | there are mirrors | Jul 29 11:48 |
matey | who works on them? | Jul 29 11:48 |
matey | theres a culture behind all this | Jul 29 11:48 |
matey | that culture is whats being dismantled | Jul 29 11:49 |
matey | so roy can say ibm will die, and it should, the sooner the better | Jul 29 11:49 |
matey | but ask him whats going to happen to gcc, he hasnt got a clue | Jul 29 11:49 |
matey | only one who does is eben moglen | Jul 29 11:50 |
matey | and he threatened someones job! so i guess its not important | Jul 29 11:50 |
matey | WE HAVE RULES | Jul 29 11:50 |
psydruid | we'll have systemd-compilerd at least | Jul 29 11:50 |
matey | heh | Jul 29 11:50 |
psydruid | so no problem | Jul 29 11:50 |
matey | a little cynicism is informative | Jul 29 11:51 |
matey | a lot of cynicism is mincer | Jul 29 11:51 |
schestowitz[TR2] | lol | Jul 29 11:51 |
schestowitz[TR2] | bringing light to issues | Jul 29 11:52 |
matey | yeah i mean | Jul 29 11:52 |
matey | you need someone who can poke holes in bullshit | Jul 29 11:52 |
matey | hes good at that | Jul 29 11:52 |
schestowitz[TR2] | gcc is not ibm | Jul 29 11:52 |
psydruid | this is what I imagine Russian Winnie the Pooh to be like | Jul 29 11:52 |
matey | you also need people who are crazy enough to go forward with an imperfect plan | Jul 29 11:52 |
matey | when its the best we can muster | Jul 29 11:52 |
schestowitz[TR2] | gcc is some hardware companies, suse, ibm | Jul 29 11:52 |
schestowitz[TR2] | it's more than ibm | Jul 29 11:52 |
matey | <schestowitz[TR2]> gcc is not ibm <- i dont have a problem i can stop drinking anytime i want | Jul 29 11:53 |
matey | good luck with that | Jul 29 11:53 |
matey | gcc is 95% ibm | Jul 29 11:53 |
psydruid | be as cynical as mincer and go around hitting people with a wooden bat singing "pom pom pom pom pom" | Jul 29 11:53 |
matey | so you take your 5% and have fun | Jul 29 11:53 |
schestowitz[TR2] | ibm pushes powerx to gcc | Jul 29 11:53 |
schestowitz[TR2] | gcc does many other archs | Jul 29 11:53 |
schestowitz[TR2] | that compete with ibm | Jul 29 11:53 |
matey | i love that you think that changes the fact that ibm controls gcc | Jul 29 11:54 |
schestowitz[TR2] | no way 95% | Jul 29 11:54 |
matey | in fact it already did | Jul 29 11:54 |
matey | it simply expands that | Jul 29 11:54 |
matey | only moglen is worried | Jul 29 11:54 |
schestowitz[TR2] | show that 95% of commits are |ibm empoloyees 100% of the time" | Jul 29 11:54 |
matey | the rest are naive | Jul 29 11:54 |
matey | <schestowitz[TR2]> show that 95% of commits are |ibm empoloyees 100% of the time" ITS THEIR TURF | Jul 29 11:54 |
matey | they control the repo. they control the other devs. | Jul 29 11:54 |
psydruid | red hat is ibm | Jul 29 11:54 |
psydruid | sourceware is ibm | Jul 29 11:54 |
matey | they also are substantial contributors | Jul 29 11:55 |
matey | you really do suck at this kind of math. | Jul 29 11:55 |
matey | i suck at every kind of math, but this one is easy | Jul 29 11:55 |
matey | <psydruid> sourceware is ibm <- yep | Jul 29 11:55 |
matey | and it does go beyond sourceware | Jul 29 11:55 |
matey | cancelling stallman was part of controlling gcc | Jul 29 11:55 |
matey | anyone who misses that is just sucking their thumb | Jul 29 11:56 |
matey | im not saying that was the primary objective | Jul 29 11:56 |
matey | im saying it was a factor | Jul 29 11:56 |
matey | again, moglen is the only one sounding the alarm on this | Jul 29 11:56 |
matey | fsf might be deaf | Jul 29 11:56 |
matey | or just stupid | Jul 29 11:56 |
matey | or just worthless | Jul 29 11:57 |
matey | they cant even defend themselves, but they fight for users? | Jul 29 11:57 |
matey | and what do they want from us? money? | Jul 29 11:57 |
matey | please | Jul 29 11:57 |
matey | fight and get paid to keep doing it | Jul 29 11:58 |
psydruid | our hearts and minds | Jul 29 11:58 |

matey | youre asking me to prove shit that doesnt even matter | Jul 29 12:02 |
matey | its not about commits-- but i explained that | Jul 29 12:03 |
schestowitz[TR2] | i need the facs on this | Jul 29 12:03 |
matey | prove your head isnt a cube. | Jul 29 12:03 |
matey | i need the facs on this <- no you dont | Jul 29 12:03 |
matey | i give you the facts, you ask me to prove things they DONT DEPEND ON | Jul 29 12:03 |
matey | its not about the number of commits. its YOUR assertion that metric is the meaningful one | Jul 29 12:03 |
matey | not mine. | Jul 29 12:03 |
matey | youre moving the goalposts or changing the subject | Jul 29 12:04 |
matey | go right ahead. youre only running from the truth | Jul 29 12:04 |
matey | some of us care about this stuff | Jul 29 12:04 |
matey | you can pursue the truth yourself, you can give me real reason im wrong instead of wasting both our time | Jul 29 12:05 |
matey | you can actually do whatever its pleases you to do | Jul 29 12:05 |
matey | but if you want to be right, id pay better attention. | Jul 29 12:05 |
matey | choice is always yours | Jul 29 12:05 |
matey | hell, you sure dont work for me | Jul 29 12:05 |
matey | you spend your time on alex gravely | Jul 29 12:05 |
matey | it wont DO anything, but its mildly interesting | Jul 29 12:06 |
matey | to me, gcc being at stake is more interesting | Jul 29 12:06 |
matey | but "we" dont cover that because "we" dont know shit about it | Jul 29 12:06 |
matey | and i dont think its better to make things up | Jul 29 12:06 |
matey | but are you even looking? no, youre Looking Away | Jul 29 12:07 |
matey | again, your choice | Jul 29 12:07 |
matey | mine to critique too | Jul 29 12:07 |
matey | i think its foolish to dismiss this | Jul 29 12:07 |
matey | but you get to if you want to | Jul 29 12:07 |
matey | and hey, everyone but moglen seems to think its alright | Jul 29 12:08 |
matey | ibm is probably doing what theyre doing (that moglen addressed) for nothing | Jul 29 12:08 |
matey | its not part of a plan or a strategy | Jul 29 12:08 |
matey | with gcc ibm is just throwing shit at the wall | Jul 29 12:08 |
matey | im sure... | Jul 29 12:08 |
matey | i still think gcc is more forkable than llvm | Jul 29 12:10 |
matey | what i dont know is-- how forkable is gcc? | Jul 29 12:10 |
matey | time will tell | Jul 29 12:10 |
matey | maybe we will all be using rust by then :/ | Jul 29 12:10 |
schestowitz[TR2] | suse is still a big parrt of gcc | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | inc. official announcemnre | Jul 29 12:11 |
matey | oh, suse | Jul 29 12:11 |
matey | well, now i feel better | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | syou could make the case that whgile suse competes with red hat | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | it is still very close to ibm | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | re power deployuments and hpc | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | and that novell's last ceo was from ivbm | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | as were many other novell execs | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | but gcc is not ibm | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | ibm is a big part | Jul 29 12:11 |
schestowitz[TR2] | ut there are many stakeholkders other than ibm | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | ibm is the part that does the steering and the hosting | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | they also do development | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | the rest is gravy | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | ibm is the one moving to cut free software out of gcc | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | and turn it into something more mozilla-like | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | if it takes them 15 years, theyll do it anyway | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | why shouldnt they, when no one will even try to stop them | Jul 29 12:12 |
schestowitz[TR2] | what about google, arm, intelll? | Jul 29 12:12 |
matey | what about baphometos? | Jul 29 12:13 |
matey | as far as i know, google and arm and intel are not the major factors in this problem | Jul 29 12:13 |
matey | i dont even understand the question | Jul 29 12:13 |
matey | seems like a change of subject | Jul 29 12:14 |
schestowitz[TR2] | they also play a role | Jul 29 12:14 |
matey | but not THE role | Jul 29 12:14 |
schestowitz[TR2] | they also do not agree with rms | Jul 29 12:14 |
matey | thats ibm. again. | Jul 29 12:14 |
schestowitz[TR2] | assuming rms as a bropther, aarson (AAS) | Jul 29 12:14 |
schestowitz[TR2] | who worked at IBM | Jul 29 12:14 |
schestowitz[TR2] | *aaron | Jul 29 12:14 |
schestowitz[TR2] | sorry, standing while typing | Jul 29 12:14 |
matey | they also do not agree with rms <- are you implying that people who disagree with rms therefore have control of gcc? | Jul 29 12:15 |
matey | because thats certainly not my argument | Jul 29 12:15 |
schestowitz[TR2] | *ASS, not AAS | Jul 29 12:15 |
matey | im implying that ibm has more control over gcc than any other party | Jul 29 12:15 |
matey | also, ibm is the one moving to have more control | Jul 29 12:15 |
schestowitz[TR2] | that\'s true | Jul 29 12:15 |
matey | do you see anyone else doing that? i do not. | Jul 29 12:15 |
schestowitz[TR2] | but not all parties combined | Jul 29 12:15 |
matey | i honestly dont beleve it matters to them | Jul 29 12:16 |
matey | ibm and intel have a "special relationship" | Jul 29 12:16 |
matey | when blair stands up to the iraq bullshit, ill expect intel to give two shits about this | Jul 29 12:16 |
schestowitz[TR2] | a lot of giafam do | Jul 29 12:16 |
schestowitz[TR2] | i=ibm, intel | Jul 29 12:16 |
matey | depends on what you mean by "this" | Jul 29 12:16 |
matey | i happen to mean "gcc" | Jul 29 12:16 |
matey | unless you think intel is going to stand up to ibm on this | Jul 29 12:17 |
matey | or care if ibm controls gcc | Jul 29 12:17 |
matey | intel doesnt matter here | Jul 29 12:17 |
schestowitz[TR2] | i'll come bakc to this | Jul 29 12:17 |
schestowitz[TR2] | later | Jul 29 12:17 |
schestowitz[TR2] | I need to stand a bit | Jul 29 12:17 |
schestowitz[TR2] | and read my draft | Jul 29 12:17 |
schestowitz[TR2] | for my health | Jul 29 12:17 |
schestowitz[TR2] | too many typos for irc | Jul 29 12:17 |
matey | its not going to get solved today anyway | Jul 29 12:18 |
matey | but the purpose of sounding the alarm is to alert the people who can fight this | Jul 29 12:18 |
schestowitz[TR2] | atym uefi a priority | Jul 29 12:18 |
schestowitz[TR2] | plan is to bring it up every day | Jul 29 12:18 |
matey | well theres too much going on to focus on just one thing, which you dont anyway | Jul 29 12:18 |
matey | nor do i | Jul 29 12:18 |
matey | but i dont make a habit of using one vital issue to discount or distract from another vital issue | Jul 29 12:19 |
matey | unless you think alex gravely is that important | Jul 29 12:19 |
matey | but i dont | Jul 29 12:19 |
matey | github is/will do/ing fine without him | Jul 29 12:20 |
schestowitz[TR2] | alex gravel | Jul 29 12:22 |
schestowitz[TR2] | is a link | Jul 29 12:22 |
schestowitz[TR2] | like many others | Jul 29 12:22 |
schestowitz[TR2] | not rick allen jones | Jul 29 12:22 |
schestowitz[TR2] | graveley is close buddies with de icaza and github ceo | Jul 29 12:22 |
schestowitz[TR2] | why do you think they both took a hike? | Jul 29 12:22 |
matey | its pretty obvious why | Jul 29 12:22 |
schestowitz[TR2] | we''re looking into case's discovery | Jul 29 12:22 |
schestowitz[TR2] | seems github has an inner crisis | Jul 29 12:22 |

matey | the standard you hold openbsd to is laughable | Jul 29 12:30 |
matey | its not enough for them to do the right thing while others fuck up | Jul 29 12:30 |
matey | no, they also have to have everyone leave them alone and not try to tempt them | Jul 29 12:30 |
matey | because thats LOOMING, years ago | Jul 29 12:30 |
matey | its so ridiculous | Jul 29 12:30 |
matey | your bias is through the goddamned roof | Jul 29 12:30 |
matey | it has its own military | Jul 29 12:31 |
matey | and people who actually use bsd can see right through the sad joke it is | Jul 29 12:31 |
matey | youre just hating, the stories you "sound the alarm on" arent even news | Jul 29 12:31 |

matey | no, we supported" | Jul 29 12:32 |
matey | no one needs that kind of support | Jul 29 12:32 |
matey | but if you want to undermine your credibility with your wikipedia-editor like assaults on bsd | Jul 29 12:32 |

matey | this is a game on your part | Jul 29 12:34 |

matey | and if you think you can undermine them with this | Jul 29 12:34 |
matey | read the room | Jul 29 12:34 |
matey | everybody knows your stance on openbsd is nonsense | Jul 29 12:35 |
matey | theyve been the victim of double standards forever | Jul 29 12:35 |
matey | much like stallman vs torvalds | Jul 29 12:35 |

schestowitz[TR2] | lol | Jul 29 12:38 |
matey | my shitty algorithm is still running | Jul 29 12:39 |
matey | its been running for three hours (thats how you know its shitty) | Jul 29 12:39 |
matey | its only 15mb of text, dont be ridiculous | Jul 29 12:39 |
matey | on the nice side, the cpu isnt working too hard. i consider that a feature | Jul 29 12:40 |
matey | but if this were any slower it wouldnt even be worth running | Jul 29 12:40 |
matey | i could optimise it, but i rarely run it for anything that takes more than 1 minute. this is sort of a first. | Jul 29 12:40 |
matey | rather i could try to optimise it and it would probably work after a few tries | Jul 29 12:41 |
matey | i estimated it would run for an hour. i was clearly off | Jul 29 12:42 |
matey | its looping through 15mb of data a stupid number of times. even so, it should be fairly predictable how long it takes | Jul 29 12:43 |
matey | (the first thing it does is buffer all of that data in ram-- but after that its pretty conservative-- usage doesnt really go up from there) | Jul 29 12:43 |
matey | try that with firefox | Jul 29 12:44 |
matey | 3 hours later: "hey, im still using the same amount of ram-- wait, IM NOT FIREFOX!" | Jul 29 12:44 |
matey | theoretically it could double, but any data that would accomplish that wouldnt make it useful to run the program | Jul 29 12:47 |
matey | sorting whats basically already sorted is pointless | Jul 29 12:48 |
matey | also the program would be done really fucking quickly then | Jul 29 12:48 |
matey | hmm... no it wouldnt | Jul 29 12:49 |

matey | federation was (imo) always inevitable, will remain so | Jul 29 13:53 |
matey | federation is hard to build-- it wasnt any easier in historical examples | Jul 29 13:53 |
matey | but worth it | Jul 29 13:53 |
matey | and in those examples, the "central node" DID fail | Jul 29 13:53 |
matey | and the federation is whats left of that | Jul 29 13:53 |
matey | and the central node is dead | Jul 29 13:53 |
matey | just like the fsf | Jul 29 13:53 |
matey | its not ideal. ideal would be, the fsf stayed, the federation worked with it | Jul 29 13:54 |

matey | but the msm sides mostly with the side waters and einstein were against | Jul 29 14:38 |
matey | it would be cool if stern had a reasonable argument to make. he does at least explain, but it mostly comes down to "they have a right to defend themselves" | Jul 29 14:39 |

matey | what do you really want from cc0? | Jul 29 14:46 |
matey | it may be the best, but you can get the 99% of it that actually matters in real life from A LOT LESS text | Jul 29 14:46 |
matey | and if you really think cc0 is best... just use cc0 then | Jul 29 14:46 |
matey | the one drawback-- and ive personally disputed it for years! | Jul 29 14:47 |
*britney has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Jul 29 14:47 | |
matey | is that it might suck as a free software license | Jul 29 14:47 |
matey | despite the fsf listing it as a gpl-compatible free softwre license. | Jul 29 14:47 |
matey | MIGHT suck as one. | Jul 29 14:47 |
MinceR | public domain when possible and meaningful; fallback to a license that is as permissive as possible when not | Jul 29 14:47 |
matey | according to, in chronological order: | Jul 29 14:47 |
matey | karl fogel, voting at osi | Jul 29 14:47 |
MinceR | the only thing i used cc0 for was my fvwm configuration | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | osi, resulting from karl fogels vote | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | and ibm, who are obviously the very last word on reality itself | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | thats another factor | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | when you consider the sheer dearth of cc0-licensed software | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | and i do... | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | it hasnt really been picked up for that purpose, and now likely never will be | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | even before this, it was a long shot. | Jul 29 14:48 |
matey | its been a long shot at least since fogel voted dont approve more than a decade ago | Jul 29 14:49 |
MinceR | maybe someone will write a derivative without the patent threat | Jul 29 14:49 |
MinceR | instead of just whining about it | Jul 29 14:49 |
matey | i mean its like a bicycle with 5 wheels | Jul 29 14:49 |
matey | no one really needs one | Jul 29 14:49 |
matey | 4 is useful, 3 can be argued, 2 is classic | Jul 29 14:49 |

matey | but this windmill just isnt going to spin | Jul 29 14:50 |
matey | for software, and applicable to other works | Jul 29 14:51 |
matey | 0 clause bsd is the best alternative i can think of | Jul 29 14:51 |
matey | and ive thought about it | Jul 29 14:51 |
matey | as a bonus, you can fit the whole license in 3 comments. | Jul 29 14:51 |
matey | try it with cc0. | Jul 29 14:51 |
matey | now, 0 clause bsd isnt actually a pd dedication | Jul 29 14:51 |
matey | youd need ONE more line for that. | Jul 29 14:51 |

matey | arguably better | Jul 29 14:54 |
matey | then after you license it 0 clause | Jul 29 14:54 |

matey | america. youre welcome. | Jul 29 15:04 |
MinceR | well, let's see | Jul 29 15:04 |
MinceR | in dictatorships like red china, the state brainwashes most people to be authoritarians | Jul 29 15:04 |
MinceR | in "western" dictatorship, typically 50% of the voters are "conservative" | Jul 29 15:04 |
MinceR | "conservative" (i.e. fascist) parties are formally allied with fidSS and/or PiS | Jul 29 15:05 |
MinceR | none of those parties declared that what fidSS and PiS did (turning a republic into a dictatorship) is incompatible with "conservative" values | Jul 29 15:05 |
matey | are we talking about america or another country | Jul 29 15:05 |
matey | and is america formally allied with fidss and/or pis? | Jul 29 15:05 |

matey | (i realise defending republicans is a waste of time, but im only trying to figure out if they really support fidss and/or pis, so this is for that purpose) | Jul 29 15:09 |
MinceR | apparently they like to pretend they stand for "democracy" while demolishing it | Jul 29 15:09 |

matey | what we need is ri | Jul 29 15:19 |
MinceR | it will be like pest control | Jul 29 15:19 |
matey | which may also be fiction :) | Jul 29 15:19 |
techuser | what is ri? | Jul 29 15:19 |
matey | <MinceR> it will be like pest control <- too hitlery for my taste | Jul 29 15:19 |
techuser | anyway, Skywave wants AI takeover | Jul 29 15:20 |
matey | ri = real intelligence | Jul 29 15:20 |
MinceR | RI is a myth | Jul 29 15:20 |
techuser | replacing humans with bots | Jul 29 15:20 |
matey | ai has done nothing ever to inspire confidence as a leader | Jul 29 15:20 |
MinceR | there is no need for leaders | Jul 29 15:20 |
matey | hell, go back and watch the classic trek with nomad | Jul 29 15:20 |
matey | that spanked the perfect ai idea to hell | Jul 29 15:20 |
MinceR | the whole "leader" meme is only good for giving sociopaths all the power they want | Jul 29 15:20 |
matey | <MinceR> the whole "leader" meme is only good for giving sociopaths all the power they want <- ai would maximise that, not minimise it | Jul 29 15:20 |
MinceR | considering what we're comparing it to, it doesn't need to be perfect | Jul 29 15:21 |
matey | its a fucking terribile idea | Jul 29 15:21 |
MinceR | sociopaths won't survive | Jul 29 15:21 |
techuser | I have no faith in society | Jul 29 15:21 |
matey | <MinceR> considering what we're comparing it to, it doesn't need to be perfect <- this is the fallacy that would wipe us out instantly, and you wouldnt complain even if you could | Jul 29 15:21 |
matey | if we are going to destroy ourselves anyway, we dont need to build an ai to do it | Jul 29 15:21 |

MinceR | indeed | Jul 29 15:22 |
MinceR | that is not the role of the AI in this | Jul 29 15:22 |
matey | <techuser> I have no faith in society <- to be fair, you dont get out much | Jul 29 15:22 |
MinceR | humanity will wipe itself out quite nicely | Jul 29 15:22 |
matey | <MinceR> that is not the role of the AI in this <- thats what it would do | Jul 29 15:22 |
MinceR | to be fair, human society doesn't deserve any faith | Jul 29 15:22 |
matey | <matey> <techuser> I have no faith in society <- to be fair, you dont get out much <- to be afair, theres a war on | Jul 29 15:22 |
techuser | maybe evolution creating a human was a mistake | Jul 29 15:23 |
techuser | two missiles did hit my city yesterday | Jul 29 15:23 |
techuser | the other time they can kill me | Jul 29 15:23 |
matey | yeah thats a valid point | Jul 29 15:23 |
matey | having a good reason (even a few) to be isolated | Jul 29 15:23 |
matey | doesnt change the fact that being isolated makes it a lot harder to judge society reasonably | Jul 29 15:23 |
MinceR | if life on earth wants to survive past the Sun boiling away our atmosphere and water, it needs intelligence | Jul 29 15:24 |
matey | its sort of an ivory tower effect | Jul 29 15:24 |
MinceR | too bad it only evolved humans instead | Jul 29 15:24 |
matey | without the ivory | Jul 29 15:24 |
matey | <MinceR> if life on earth wants to survive past the Sun boiling away our atmosphere and water, it needs intelligence <- yeah | Jul 29 15:24 |
techuser | will humans even survive to this point? | Jul 29 15:24 |
techuser | or just some random war destroys them all eventually | Jul 29 15:24 |
matey | obviously first on the agenda is dialing down humanitys threat to itself | Jul 29 15:24 |
MinceR | humans will wipe themselves out, though i wonder what method they'll go with | Jul 29 15:25 |
matey | fixing that will only help our odds of outrunning the sun | Jul 29 15:25 |
MinceR | just making the planet uninhabitable for themselves | Jul 29 15:25 |
MinceR | or war | Jul 29 15:25 |

MinceR | or some sort of faster human-made catastrophe | Jul 29 15:25 |
MinceR | or uncontrollable population decline in a resource crisis | Jul 29 15:25 |
matey | all valid points | Jul 29 15:26 |
MinceR | or genocide | Jul 29 15:26 |
MinceR | also, i wonder what will the criteria be for war/genocide | Jul 29 15:26 |
matey | what would you recommend | Jul 29 15:26 |
MinceR | religion, race, ethnicity, sex, sexual preference | Jul 29 15:26 |
matey | none of the above | Jul 29 15:26 |
MinceR | i would recommend getting rid of all the savages and idiots and authoritarians and starting society over | Jul 29 15:26 |
MinceR | maybe dump them in red china | Jul 29 15:26 |
matey | thats not a genetic issue, its a political one | Jul 29 15:27 |
matey | genocide wont fix anything, because it doesnt address an actual problem | Jul 29 15:27 |
MinceR | it's not meant to fix anything | Jul 29 15:27 |
MinceR | it's just something humans do | Jul 29 15:27 |
MinceR | A and B gang up to kill C, not realizing that once C is dead, they're going to try to kill each other | Jul 29 15:27 |
matey | youd have to give a b and c a better idea | Jul 29 15:28 |
matey | then if they dont get it straight, shoot them | Jul 29 15:28 |
MinceR | i don't think they have the mental capacity to do anything better | Jul 29 15:28 |
matey | its not about mental capacity | Jul 29 15:28 |
MinceR | they could try to stay out of my way, but i doubt they can even do that | Jul 29 15:28 |
MinceR | yes it is | Jul 29 15:28 |
matey | its about a failed education | Jul 29 15:28 |
matey | its really not | Jul 29 15:28 |
matey | this isnt an iq points thing | Jul 29 15:28 |
MinceR | no one said it was | Jul 29 15:29 |
matey | mental capacity / iq... we are going to quibble? | Jul 29 15:29 |
MinceR | yes we are | Jul 29 15:29 |
matey | ok, but whats the quibble then? | Jul 29 15:29 |
MinceR | iq is a very limited tool, not really useful beyond what it was invented to do | Jul 29 15:29 |
matey | agreed | Jul 29 15:29 |
matey | but i think youre measuring mental capacity in education | Jul 29 15:30 |

matey | and thats what iq tests do | Jul 29 15:30 |
matey | and the argument has the same flaw either way | Jul 29 15:30 |
matey | the issue is education, not "mental capacity" | Jul 29 15:30 |
matey | the fix is also education | Jul 29 15:30 |
matey | granted, education wont work on psychopaths | Jul 29 15:31 |
matey | and the jury is out on sociopaths | Jul 29 15:31 |
MinceR | i'm not measuring it in education | Jul 29 15:31 |
matey | thats the problem. you should. | Jul 29 15:31 |
MinceR | i'm "measuring" it in the ability to not ruin one's own future, in the ability to learn and understand, in the ability to coexist with others that are willing to do so | Jul 29 15:32 |
matey | actually im going back and forth because of semantics | Jul 29 15:32 |
matey | but i mean, education is the issue here | Jul 29 15:32 |
matey | and if two people with the same mental capacity get very different educations | Jul 29 15:32 |
MinceR | in little things like "should i really promote dictatorship so much when i can't be sure that i'll end up at the top of it all?" | Jul 29 15:32 |
matey | they get wildly different results | Jul 29 15:32 |
matey | <MinceR> in little things like "should i really promote dictatorship so much when i can't be sure that i'll end up at the top of it all?" | Jul 29 15:32 |
techuser | is compulsory education when children are forced to use evil tech *good*? | Jul 29 15:32 |
matey | ent results <- the disparity in education will produce as great a disparity in lesson learned | Jul 29 15:33 |
matey | if you teach people to be stupid, they will be stupid. | Jul 29 15:33 |
MinceR | also in little things like "i've tried this thing 90 times and every time it failed. should i try it again, or should i try something else?" | Jul 29 15:33 |
matey | its not the only way, but its the most popular | Jul 29 15:33 |
matey | <MinceR> also in little things like "i've tried this thing 90 times and every time it failed. should i try it again, or should i try something else?" <- of course | Jul 29 15:33 |
matey | /me thinks this one is obvious | Jul 29 15:34 |
matey | i mean if people "think" that way | Jul 29 15:34 |
matey | they were taught to | Jul 29 15:34 |
techuser | I tell cuddlybear66 that she'd better not to have children because a lot of parents did fail at being good parents. She thinks he will be a good one. | Jul 29 15:34 |
matey | i should say "conditioned" to | Jul 29 15:34 |
MinceR | well, some people figured out that what they're trying to teach them is bullshit | Jul 29 15:34 |
matey | yeah | Jul 29 15:34 |
MinceR | some people became cured of religion this way | Jul 29 15:34 |
matey | and if not for people like that, we would all be fucked | Jul 29 15:34 |
techuser | *she thinks she will be a good one | Jul 29 15:34 |
MinceR | or rather, cured themselves | Jul 29 15:34 |
matey | religions not so bad | Jul 29 15:35 |
MinceR | yeah, it's so much worse | Jul 29 15:35 |
matey | fundamentalism and theocracy are terrible | Jul 29 15:35 |
MinceR | and fundamentalism and theocracy follow from religion | Jul 29 15:35 |
matey | if you take out fundamentalism and theocracy, those are the "big teeth" of religion that get everybody | Jul 29 15:35 |
techuser | Islam terrorism exists | Jul 29 15:35 |
matey | <MinceR> and fundamentalism and theocracy follow from religion <- they dont | Jul 29 15:35 |
MinceR | destroying the ability to think rationally is a big tooth too | Jul 29 15:35 |
cuddlybear66 | a lot of parents have failed but u can look at their mistakes nd learn from them, strive to be better than ur own parents so u can make ur kids happy | Jul 29 15:35 |
matey | give me one example of fundamentalism or theocracy | Jul 29 15:36 |
matey | and ill show you the error | Jul 29 15:36 |
MinceR | no amount of praying will prevent an asteroid or the Sun from wiping you out | Jul 29 15:36 |
matey | first, theocracy follows from state authoritarianism | Jul 29 15:36 |
matey | you cant have theocracy without an authoritarian state | Jul 29 15:36 |
matey | but you can have an authoritarian state without theocracy | Jul 29 15:36 |
MinceR | fundamentalism follows from absolute certainty in one's beliefs | Jul 29 15:36 |
matey | yeah | Jul 29 15:36 |
MinceR | theocracy follows from fundamentalism | Jul 29 15:36 |
matey | you can have all of this without religion. saying it comes from religion seems to fly in the face of facts | Jul 29 15:37 |
matey | all of this PAIRS with religion. but so what? | Jul 29 15:37 |
matey | if you mix crack with chocolate, you get chocolatey crack and it will kill you | Jul 29 15:37 |
matey | or just destroy your life | Jul 29 15:38 |
matey | and too much chocolate will kill you too | Jul 29 15:38 |
matey | but for most people, chocolate isnt their biggest concern in life | Jul 29 15:38 |
techuser | I should ask horseface what he thinks on it | Jul 29 15:38 |
matey | without pairing up with other more terrible ideas | Jul 29 15:39 |
matey | religion is just a hobby | Jul 29 15:39 |
MinceR | religion is a memetic parasite that destroys the mind | Jul 29 15:39 |
techuser | for some people it is the meaning of life | Jul 29 15:39 |
techuser | is it a hobby when someone kills themselves because the religion told them to? | Jul 29 15:40 |
MinceR | the best hobby | Jul 29 15:40 |
matey | <MinceR> religion is a memetic parasite that destroys the mind <- if you look into how it does that, im sure youll find the real problem lays elsewhere | Jul 29 15:40 |
techuser | and not only themselves, but also a lot of other people | Jul 29 15:40 |
MinceR | one of the real problems is that most human minds are defenseless against such memetic pathogens | Jul 29 15:40 |
MinceR | that doesn't absolve religion | Jul 29 15:40 |
matey | anything can become what you call a religion | Jul 29 15:40 |
matey | trumpism is basically there now | Jul 29 15:40 |
matey | which god do we blame trumpism on | Jul 29 15:41 |
MinceR | trumpism is an aspect of ruscism | Jul 29 15:41 |
MinceR | ruscism is christian fundamentalist | Jul 29 15:41 |
MinceR | we blame it on yahweh | Jul 29 15:41 |
techuser | some people on digdeeper's chat did mention skywavism (ping Skywave) iirc, as well as other invented religions related to the members of the chat | Jul 29 15:41 |
matey | what if yhwh has fuck all to do with this | Jul 29 15:41 |
MinceR | though maybe erdogan is a muslim ruscist, i'm not sure | Jul 29 15:41 |
MinceR | but muslims worship yahweh all the same | Jul 29 15:41 |
matey | i mean i can start chopping off heads and blame john lennon for it | Jul 29 15:42 |
matey | john lennon makes people kill each other man | Jul 29 15:42 |
techuser | oh, Church of Emacs btw | Jul 29 15:42 |
matey | im pretty sure church of emacs is harmless | Jul 29 15:42 |
matey | because it isnt really fundamentalist or theocratic | Jul 29 15:43 |
techuser | some people think "freetardism" is harmful | Jul 29 15:43 |
matey | but someday it might suddenly spawn fundamentalism or theocracy-- like roaches from newspapers | Jul 29 15:43 |
matey | a similar post hoc fallacy | Jul 29 15:43 |
matey | its funny because | Jul 29 15:44 |
MinceR | 29 164227 < matey> i mean i can start chopping off heads and blame john lennon for it | Jul 29 15:44 |
MinceR | so where's the scripture/dogma about john lennon? | Jul 29 15:44 |
matey | fundamentalism is VERY CLEARLY a separate factor that makes these things horrible | Jul 29 15:44 |
MinceR | also, when did john lennon become a god | Jul 29 15:44 |
matey | but religious critics honestly think that all religion has this magic spark that could just set off fundamentalism spontaneously at any horrible momeny | Jul 29 15:45 |
MinceR | fundamentalism very clearly follows from religion | Jul 29 15:45 |
techuser | celebrities have fans | Jul 29 15:45 |
matey | without any explanation of the mechanism | Jul 29 15:45 |
matey | otoh | Jul 29 15:45 |
MinceR | afaict no human did even reach divine rank 0 (quasi-deity) from fans | Jul 29 15:45 |
matey | if you treat fundamentalism as a separate factor that doesnt spontaneously spring magically from religious thinking | Jul 29 15:45 |
MinceR | iirc that would already make them immortal :> | Jul 29 15:45 |
matey | its relatively easy to explain where it comes from | Jul 29 15:45 |
matey | first, it comes from desperation. | Jul 29 15:45 |
matey | we can trace the causes of that desperation | Jul 29 15:46 |
techuser | otoh? | Jul 29 15:46 |
MinceR | the mechanism is taking one's religion more and more seriously, being more and more sure about everything in it | Jul 29 15:46 |
matey | otoh = on the other hand | Jul 29 15:46 |
MinceR | from which follows that everyone else is wrong, heretical, therefore expendable | Jul 29 15:46 |
matey | the mechanism is taking one's religion more and more ser | Jul 29 15:46 |
MinceR | and also that everything in life must be organized according to that religion | Jul 29 15:46 |
matey | if people are not denied education | Jul 29 15:47 |
matey | they arent that stupid | Jul 29 15:47 |
matey | i wasnt denied an education | Jul 29 15:47 |
matey | i was VERY sceptical of religious bullshit at age 4 | Jul 29 15:47 |
MinceR | it typically have such elements as "nonbelievers must be forcefully converted so that they don't get tortured in hell forever, it's for their own good" | Jul 29 15:47 |
MinceR | s/ve/s/ | Jul 29 15:48 |
matey | granted i was denied good math and social studies, like most people | Jul 29 15:48 |
matey | im 100% sceptical of theocracy (im 100% against it) | Jul 29 15:48 |
matey | and fundamentalism (it destroys lives) | Jul 29 15:48 |
matey | (even when it doesnt literally kill people_) | Jul 29 15:49 |
matey | both are forms of authoritarianism that borrow religion as justification | Jul 29 15:49 |
matey | hitler didnt spring forth from zoroastrianism | Jul 29 15:49 |
matey | he just looked around for an interesting excuse for being hitler | Jul 29 15:49 |
matey | and liked swastikas | Jul 29 15:50 |
matey | that should make it clearer where this shit comes from | Jul 29 15:50 |
matey | religion isnt the cause, its the excuse | Jul 29 15:50 |
matey | it gets taken over by authoritarian dicks | Jul 29 15:50 |
matey | but the authoritarianism is the issue | Jul 29 15:51 |
matey | "im your leader." "says who?" "god of course" | Jul 29 15:51 |
matey | over and over and again. egypt. england. japan. | Jul 29 15:51 |
matey | "go put some milk out" | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | "why?" | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | "fae folk" | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | "k, whatever" | Jul 29 15:52 |
MinceR | the idea of other people being wrong and therefore lacking in rights comes in well before the authoritarian dicks take over | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | harmless | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | people are wrong all the fucking time | Jul 29 15:52 |
MinceR | doesn't mean they should be tortured for it | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | youre really implying that everyone has to be a scientist not to kill each other over fairies | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | it isnt so | Jul 29 15:52 |
matey | all they have to do is not kill each other without a good reason | Jul 29 15:53 |
MinceR | especially when the basis of this is a memetically spreading set of misconceptions about reality | Jul 29 15:53 |
MinceR | no, i'm implying that people need to accept that other people can be right too, and other people can have rights too | Jul 29 15:53 |
MinceR | even if they don't have the same (or any) religion | Jul 29 15:53 |
matey | i agree | Jul 29 15:54 |
matey | but if they cant agree to that much | Jul 29 15:54 |
matey | thats fundamentalism | Jul 29 15:54 |
matey | and religion really doesnt produce fundamentalists very reliably | Jul 29 15:54 |
MinceR | and that's what you'll find in many scriptures | Jul 29 15:54 |
MinceR | pretty early on | Jul 29 15:54 |
matey | most christians and muslims arent out to join a crusade | Jul 29 15:54 |
MinceR | though i guess abrahamism really outdoes everything else at this | Jul 29 15:54 |
matey | abrahamism is broadly plagiarised anyway | Jul 29 15:54 |
matey | (in both directions) | Jul 29 15:55 |
MinceR | no, they're merely out to support sociopaths who treat everyone outside their cult as designated victims | Jul 29 15:55 |
MinceR | and also out to provide the active religious extremists with cover and excuses | Jul 29 15:55 |
matey | we agree that sociopaths are a major problem in all of this | Jul 29 15:55 |
matey | one of the biggest problems | Jul 29 15:55 |
MinceR | many christians admitted already that their voting is influenced by which party spouts their preferred flavor of religious bullshit | Jul 29 15:56 |
matey | christianity has been co-opted by statists since the time romans killed (or allegedly killed) jesus (assuming he even existed) | Jul 29 15:57 |
matey | its tied together with the state in so many ways now | Jul 29 15:57 |
matey | but all that goes back to it being co-opted by an existing state | Jul 29 15:57 |
matey | its rome that made christianity suck, not the other way around | Jul 29 15:57 |
matey | and statists still do that | Jul 29 15:57 |
matey | its a big thing | Jul 29 15:57 |
matey | but for some reason we act like that magically SPRANG FORTH from christianity itself | Jul 29 15:58 |
matey | the goal here is to understand religion and how it works-- both the good (if any) and the bad | Jul 29 15:59 |
MinceR | christianity has had support for statism in its scriptures for a very long time | Jul 29 15:59 |
matey | not to absolve it or to blame it for things that are clearly outside factors | Jul 29 15:59 |
MinceR | also for slavery | Jul 29 15:59 |
MinceR | and so has judaism | Jul 29 15:59 |
MinceR | also, afaik rome was better before christianity became its state religion | Jul 29 16:00 |
MinceR | they were much more tolerant of other religions at least | Jul 29 16:00 |
matey | monotheism and fundamentalism do attract each other | Jul 29 16:01 |
MinceR | polytheism is inherently more tolerant than monotheism | Jul 29 16:01 |
matey | monotheism CAN be tolerant | Jul 29 16:01 |
matey | but it starts to look like polytheism then | Jul 29 16:01 |
matey | monotheism and polythism are largely an argument about how to count things | Jul 29 16:02 |
matey | catholicism has 3 deities but only one really counts and besides theyre the same | Jul 29 16:02 |
matey | so there | Jul 29 16:02 |
matey | paganism can do that too, but we dont let them, so there | Jul 29 16:03 |
matey | it counts when i do it, not when you do it | Jul 29 16:03 |
matey | its the same, but theres a nuance | Jul 29 16:03 |
matey | all polytheism can be monotheistic through the silly tricks monotheism pulls | Jul 29 16:03 |
matey | and its fine | Jul 29 16:03 |
matey | its just that some monotheists get this | Jul 29 16:04 |
matey | and most will never admit it :) | Jul 29 16:04 |
matey | so monotheism often acts as a sort of "my shit doesnt stink" thing | Jul 29 16:04 |
matey | and joseph campbell understandably had this attitude towards it | Jul 29 16:04 |
matey | imo the people who really understand monotheism arent like that, so it doesnt bother me | Jul 29 16:05 |
matey | but i still see the people who think theyre special for it | Jul 29 16:05 |
matey | really i think if you get rid of religion | Jul 29 16:05 |
matey | first, you can only do it by incredibly oppressive means | Jul 29 16:05 |
matey | then after you do that, people are just going to invent it again | Jul 29 16:06 |
matey | so what was that for | Jul 29 16:06 |
matey | newton became a rather lovely scientist without giving up crazy | Jul 29 16:06 |
matey | the enlightenment came out either way | Jul 29 16:06 |
matey | as for marx and lenin, both were of the opinion that if you addressed the real problems in the world | Jul 29 16:07 |
matey | religion would sort of fade away | Jul 29 16:07 |
matey | and become a non-issue | Jul 29 16:07 |
matey | ive always thought similar, but not because of marx or lenin | Jul 29 16:07 |
matey | they just happened to agree | Jul 29 16:07 |
matey | its a symptom | Jul 29 16:07 |
matey | it looks like a very violent cause | Jul 29 16:08 |
matey | its a very violent symptom imo | Jul 29 16:08 |
matey | but only when combined with other factors | Jul 29 16:08 |
matey | religious idiots vote for religious idiots, yes | Jul 29 16:08 |
matey | but only in an election system which is fundametally broken | Jul 29 16:09 |
matey | and religion didnt break it | Jul 29 16:09 |
matey | it just moved into the cracks | Jul 29 16:09 |
matey | if you banned religion and only left atheists standing, the election system wouldnt be fixed | Jul 29 16:09 |
matey | if you fixed it however, it would actually represent people | Jul 29 16:09 |
matey | not the lunatic fringe | Jul 29 16:10 |
phanes | no it would just think it was smarter than anyone | Jul 29 16:10 |
matey | what would think so? | Jul 29 16:10 |
phanes | atheism is the lowest order of spiritual thought | Jul 29 16:10 |
MinceR | 29 170544 < matey> really i think if you get rid of religion | Jul 29 16:10 |
MinceR | i would hope it could become obsolete | Jul 29 16:10 |
MinceR | and unattractive to people | Jul 29 16:10 |
matey | of course it can | Jul 29 16:10 |
MinceR | but taking power away from fundamentalists would help a lot | Jul 29 16:10 |
matey | 99% of relgion is a cheap trick | Jul 29 16:10 |
matey | and the rest is harmless | Jul 29 16:10 |
matey | <MinceR> but taking power away from fundamentalists would help a lot <- if everyone was armed, that would help | Jul 29 16:11 |
techuser | people are afraid of death, religion kind of addresses the issue, isn't it? | Jul 29 16:11 |
phanes | it presents itself as an evolution of human thinking while accumulating all of the faith-based backing it rejects in contrary perspectives | Jul 29 16:11 |
matey | relgion hooks into every fear, death among those | Jul 29 16:11 |
MinceR | 29 170717 < matey> as for marx and lenin, both were of the opinion that if you addressed the real problems in the world | Jul 29 16:11 |
MinceR | and so they started another religion | Jul 29 16:11 |
MinceR | based on misconceptions about economics | Jul 29 16:11 |
matey | fear of loneliness, fear of failure, fear of death, fear of being useless | Jul 29 16:11 |
MinceR | and then later added misconceptions about biology | Jul 29 16:11 |
matey | fear of TEMPTATION | Jul 29 16:11 |
matey | based on misconceptions about economics <- i think the playing field is pretty level when it comes to misconceptions about economics | Jul 29 16:12 |
matey | everybody has them more or less | Jul 29 16:12 |
matey | the distribution is close enough to perfect | Jul 29 16:12 |
MinceR | also, banning religion is impossible unless you can read people's thoughts | Jul 29 16:12 |
MinceR | and that would be even worse | Jul 29 16:13 |
matey | yes | Jul 29 16:13 |
MinceR | thought police | Jul 29 16:13 |
matey | which is why i always argue for religion | Jul 29 16:13 |
matey | ill take it over the thought police, just like youll take turing completeness over memory safety :) | Jul 29 16:13 |
*techuser has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Jul 29 16:13 | |
MinceR | 29 171245 < matey> based on misconceptions about economics <- i think the playing field is pretty level when it comes to misconceptions about economics | Jul 29 16:13 |
phanes | freedom of religion is also freedom from religion* | Jul 29 16:13 |
matey | indeed | Jul 29 16:13 |
phanes | in other words, an atheist should be allowed to exist | Jul 29 16:14 |
MinceR | most people understand that discounts do not retroactively reduce the amount of work necessary to produce a good | Jul 29 16:14 |
matey | of course | Jul 29 16:14 |
phanes | but they should also be willing to be identified as the dumbest thinker in the room of a theologians | Jul 29 16:14 |
MinceR | marx and ricardo did not | Jul 29 16:14 |
phanes | *in a room of theologians | Jul 29 16:14 |
MinceR | lol @ phanes | Jul 29 16:14 |
matey | ricardo? | Jul 29 16:14 |
matey | he has some splaining to do | Jul 29 16:15 |
matey | who is ricardo | Jul 29 16:15 |
MinceR | someone blamed with coming up with the labor theory of value | Jul 29 16:15 |
matey | when i think about the labour theory of value | Jul 29 16:16 |
matey | i cant get past "workers deserve as much pay for their work as their bosses get" | Jul 29 16:16 |
matey | if its more than that, i dont get it | Jul 29 16:17 |
matey | if its that, ok | Jul 29 16:17 |
MinceR | it has nothing to do with that | Jul 29 16:17 |
*britney (~britney@muarsy2vret2q.irc) has joined #techrights | Jul 29 16:17 | |
matey | and im sure theres a "because" and thats fine too | Jul 29 16:17 |
matey | but eh | Jul 29 16:17 |
matey | it has nothing to do with that <- but that seems to be all it is | Jul 29 16:17 |
MinceR | LTV states that the value of goods is determined by the labor that went into producing them and nothing else | Jul 29 16:17 |
matey | and whatever else it is, i cant discern | Jul 29 16:17 |
MinceR | marx's capital is basically just restating the LTV over and over and over until you get tired of reading it and look for something else to do | Jul 29 16:18 |
matey | LTV states that the value of goods is determined by the labor that went into producing them and nothing else <- im sure the cost of materials is factored in | Jul 29 16:18 |
MinceR | with a bit of other stupidity mixed in | Jul 29 16:18 |
matey | marx's capital is basically just restating the LTV over and over and over until you get tired of reading it and look for something else to do <- it certainly kept lenin busy though | Jul 29 16:18 |
MinceR | allegedly materials are either just there (and thus free) or are extracted with labor | Jul 29 16:18 |
MinceR | lenin wanted power, it was good for that | Jul 29 16:19 |
matey | i think ive heard that | Jul 29 16:19 |
matey | lenin wanted power, it was good for that <- what did he use the power for | Jul 29 16:19 |
MinceR | sociopath things | Jul 29 16:19 |
MinceR | holding on to power, gaining more power, running other people's lives | Jul 29 16:19 |
MinceR | getting rid of people he didn't like | Jul 29 16:20 |
matey | too bad that didnt include stalin | Jul 29 16:20 |
MinceR | indeed | Jul 29 16:20 |
matey | to be fair, he was a bit incapacitated | Jul 29 16:20 |
matey | but its unfortunate nonetheless | Jul 29 16:20 |
matey | making anticapitalism work is necessary for humanity to move onto another stage of potential | Jul 29 16:21 |
matey | the nicest thing you can say for capitalism is it has reached its last plataeu | Jul 29 16:21 |
phanes | anyone who's ever started a business knows the owner of the means of production works way harder with way higher risk than anyone they're ever going to hire in about 99% of all cases | Jul 29 16:22 |
MinceR | what is anticapitalism, how does it work | Jul 29 16:22 |
matey | anticapitalism is an umbrella term, like computer | Jul 29 16:22 |
phanes | you screw up at a job working for someone else, you might lose that job at the worse; you screw up a company you own, everybody loses their jobs and you might ruin your life in the process | Jul 29 16:23 |
matey | and like computers, anticapitalism comes in a variety of forms and architectures | Jul 29 16:23 |
*techuser (~techuser@qbeewnuez7vaq.irc) has joined #techrights | Jul 29 16:23 | |
MinceR | most people who have ever started a business probably don't know how sociopaths who were born into incredible wealth and power run the businesses they own | Jul 29 16:24 |
matey | + | Jul 29 16:24 |
MinceR | you screw up one of the companies you were born to own, you probably don't care much | Jul 29 16:24 |
matey | more than that | Jul 29 16:24 |
MinceR | and most of those people think nothing of the people who work for them | Jul 29 16:24 |
matey | most people who start a business in a context already controlled by those who could buy and sell microsoft or ibm 1000 times | Jul 29 16:24 |
MinceR | think of someone like bill gates or steve jobs | Jul 29 16:25 |
matey | do so in ^ | Jul 29 16:25 |
matey | not even bill gates or steve jobs | Jul 29 16:25 |
matey | someone who can OWN bill gates or steve jobs | Jul 29 16:25 |
MinceR | or former president Don Corrupcione | Jul 29 16:25 |
matey | lets say microsoft or ibm REALLY decided to stand up for people | Jul 29 16:25 |
matey | instead of money | Jul 29 16:25 |
matey | theyd be fucked. | Jul 29 16:26 |
matey | thats how broken the system is | Jul 29 16:26 |
matey | steve ballmer and bill gates, two of the richest people on earth | Jul 29 16:26 |
matey | couldnt fix it | Jul 29 16:26 |
matey | nor would they try, but even if they did | Jul 29 16:26 |
MinceR | not to mention someone who owns businesses only on paper but doesn't run them, like lorinc meszaros (orban's best known stooge) | Jul 29 16:26 |
matey | so you can run a business with the best intentions and the hardest work | Jul 29 16:27 |
MinceR | 29 172256 < matey> anticapitalism is an umbrella term, like computer | Jul 29 16:27 |
matey | but your company is ultimately going to fuck people | Jul 29 16:27 |
matey | because thats what companies do | Jul 29 16:27 |
MinceR | no, anticapitalism is yet another of those terms that are so vague they might as well be meaningless | Jul 29 16:27 |
matey | of course, in some way we can measure, it might help | Jul 29 16:27 |
matey | but in the big picture, its all fucked | Jul 29 16:27 |
MinceR | connected to using "capitalism" to mean everything "bad" but never defining it and never offering a solution | Jul 29 16:27 |
MinceR | 29 172736 < matey> because thats what companies do | Jul 29 16:28 |
matey | no, anticapitalism is yet another of those terms that are so vague they might as well be meaningless <- its as non-vague as "atheist" for fucks sake | Jul 29 16:28 |
MinceR | is it what co-ops do? | Jul 29 16:28 |
MinceR | is it what foundations do? | Jul 29 16:28 |
matey | define atheist. | Jul 29 16:28 |
MinceR | yeah, the above uses of "atheist" also didn't add anything to the conversation | Jul 29 16:28 |
MinceR | atheist is someone who doesn't believe in any gods | Jul 29 16:29 |
matey | and an anticapitalist is someone who doesnt believe capitalism is good or should be relied on | Jul 29 16:29 |
matey | thats pretty straightforward | Jul 29 16:29 |
matey | so anticapitalism is the search for some better alternative to capitalism | Jul 29 16:29 |
matey | whats the problem with that? | Jul 29 16:29 |
MinceR | iirc weak atheism == absence of belief in any gods; strong atheism == belief that no gods exist | Jul 29 16:29 |
MinceR | ("god" isn't really defined though...) | Jul 29 16:29 |
matey | religion defines god, atheist is a response to that | Jul 29 16:30 |
matey | really atheism only needs to define theism-- not god | Jul 29 16:30 |
matey | obviously | Jul 29 16:30 |
*psydruid is looking forward to a discussion about fundamentalist atheists and atheist fundamentalists | Jul 29 16:30 | |
MinceR | different religions define it differently | Jul 29 16:30 |
XRevan86 | An atheist is someone who's worldview does not involve gods. | Jul 29 16:30 |
XRevan86 | * whose | Jul 29 16:30 |
MinceR | and no, atheism is not a response to religions | Jul 29 16:30 |
MinceR | it's the default state | Jul 29 16:30 |
matey | <MinceR> different religions define it differently <- what do you have against blanket terms with obvious and easy to understand meanings | Jul 29 16:31 |
MinceR | nothing, i'd like to see obvious and easy to understand meanings | Jul 29 16:31 |
matey | its easy if you try | Jul 29 16:31 |
MinceR | for example, the abrahamic definition of "god" is that it's yahweh, and there can be no others | Jul 29 16:31 |
matey | then atheism rejects that | Jul 29 16:32 |
matey | along with the rest of them | Jul 29 16:32 |
MinceR | every non-abrahamic religion rejects that | Jul 29 16:32 |
matey | also true | Jul 29 16:32 |
XRevan86 | Is being a GNU/Linux user a response to Windows? | Jul 29 16:32 |
matey | actually, almost | Jul 29 16:32 |
MinceR | could be, but not necessarily | Jul 29 16:32 |
XRevan86 | Are we all defined by Windows? | Jul 29 16:32 |
matey | <XRevan86> Is being a GNU/Linux user a response to Windows? <- no its a response to a missing printer driver | Jul 29 16:32 |
MinceR | lol | Jul 29 16:32 |
matey | though stallman disputes that | Jul 29 16:33 |
matey | presumably because really he just didnt want to leave the ai lab. | Jul 29 16:33 |
phanes | MinceR, you're defining atheism as agnosticism | Jul 29 16:33 |
matey | or to be the last one there | Jul 29 16:33 |
XRevan86 | matey: I don't have a printer, so I wouldn't know. | Jul 29 16:33 |
matey | i used to | Jul 29 16:33 |
matey | but it went missing before the driver did | Jul 29 16:33 |
MinceR | phanes: well, weak atheism and weak agnosticism are somewhat similar | Jul 29 16:33 |
matey | so we need free hardware | Jul 29 16:33 |
XRevan86 | I do have a scanner that doesn't work on Windows, so there's that. | Jul 29 16:33 |
MinceR | weak agnosticism == no position on whether gods exist; strong agnosticism == belief that the existence of gods cannot be known | Jul 29 16:34 |
matey | strong agnosticism == belief that the existence of gods cannot be known <- me | Jul 29 16:34 |
matey | strong agnostics: you can experience the infinite but you cant GRASP it unless youre infinite | Jul 29 16:35 |
matey | so the idea of being sure of a god is silly | Jul 29 16:35 |
matey | it could be a god or just a really big jerk | Jul 29 16:35 |
matey | i think this is a reasonable perspective scientifically | Jul 29 16:36 |
XRevan86 | I kind of stopped caring about the term "agnostic", as it's similiar to claiming that it cannot be known whether Klingons exist. | Jul 29 16:36 |
matey | but i dont think faith is stupid. it depends on what it does. | Jul 29 16:36 |
MinceR | :> | Jul 29 16:36 |
MinceR | i stopped caring about agnosticism and atheism, i prefer nonreligion | Jul 29 16:36 |
matey | nonreligion sounds pretty agnostic to me but ok | Jul 29 16:36 |
MinceR | :> | Jul 29 16:36 |
matey | <XRevan86> I kind of stopped caring about the term "agnostic", as it's similiar to claiming that it cannot be known whether Klingons exist. <- its just a phase | Jul 29 16:37 |
matey | assuming youre smarter than billions of people over a petty disagreement on something that allegedly doesnt even matter to you | Jul 29 16:38 |
MinceR | it's easy to be smarter than billions of people, unfortunately | Jul 29 16:38 |
XRevan86 | matey: I'm just highly non-superstitious. | Jul 29 16:38 |
matey | fair point | Jul 29 16:38 |
XRevan86 | I call it "atheist", call it what ye like. | Jul 29 16:38 |
matey | <XRevan86> matey: I'm just highly non-superstitious. <- ill accept this as a possibility | Jul 29 16:38 |
matey | atheist is a perfectly reasonable term for that. i would assume its accurate as well | Jul 29 16:38 |
*u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Jul 29 16:38 | |

XRevan86 | The moment when I grossly misunderstood something because I forgot to account for god, hasn't happened yet. | Jul 29 16:40 |

matey | well i made that point before, so fair enough | Jul 29 16:41 |
XRevan86 | Or maybe "psychology", but that is a very different topic from looking at the objective world around us. | Jul 29 16:43 |
matey | psychology and evolution are two things that took a great deal of early inspiration from religion | Jul 29 16:43 |
MinceR | good thing they shook it off, then | Jul 29 16:44 |
matey | freud (jung moreso) took more than a few pages from belief systems | Jul 29 16:44 |
phanes | MinceR, they're not somewhat similar, the word atheist means something, and the word agnostic means something, and those two words have different meanings | Jul 29 16:44 |
matey | and darwin (that darwin) was trying to better understand gods creation | Jul 29 16:44 |
matey | in the venn diagram weak atheist and agnosticism do have a great deal of overlap | Jul 29 16:45 |
matey | strong atheism isnt agnosticism | Jul 29 16:45 |
matey | and no one talks about strong agnosticism, but he didnt make it up | Jul 29 16:45 |
matey | i would have defined it roughly the same and mincer and i have never spoken about this before | Jul 29 16:46 |
matey | still, he rejected the word atheist when i compared it to anticapitalist | Jul 29 16:46 |
phanes | no i mean the concept of "weak atheism" is fictitious | Jul 29 16:47 |
matey | and then proceeded to define atheist just fine, so im not sure what that means | Jul 29 16:47 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: Non-religion is something that also includes people who "feel" there's a higher being out there, but aren't indoctrinated into anything. | Jul 29 16:47 |
phanes | its agnostics who don't know the word "agnostic" | Jul 29 16:47 |
matey | no i mean the concept of "weak atheism" is fictitious <- if by fictitious you mean in the dictionary and accurately describing a swath of actual people, sure | Jul 29 16:47 |
MinceR | lol | Jul 29 16:47 |
phanes | in fact the whole segmentation is purely driven by atheist communities' desire to obscure the shallowness and lack of thought of their entire premise | Jul 29 16:48 |
matey | well i do think most atheism is shallow. same for most relgion | Jul 29 16:48 |
matey | but shallowness isnt a requirement for either | Jul 29 16:49 |
matey | its more of a convention | Jul 29 16:49 |
phanes | "well maybe nobody will notice we're not thinking if we divide up into a bunch of labels already accounted for in existing terminology and pretend weve tread ground" | Jul 29 16:49 |
matey | i think sagan was a deep atheist | Jul 29 16:49 |
XRevan86 | Atheism is not really what can connect people together. | Jul 29 16:49 |
matey | phanes, read "is there an artificial god" in salmon of doubt and youll have a pretty good idea what i think about all this | Jul 29 16:49 |
matey | except that i think its the best thing a strong atheist has written on the subject | Jul 29 16:50 |
matey | and im not an atheist | Jul 29 16:50 |
matey | but dna certainly was | Jul 29 16:50 |
phanes | adams wasn't a strong atheist | Jul 29 16:50 |
phanes | he was an atheist | Jul 29 16:50 |
matey | he believed there was no god | Jul 29 16:50 |
phanes | that's an atheist | Jul 29 16:50 |
matey | how has strong/weak atheism eluded you as a concept? | Jul 29 16:50 |
MinceR | i didn't realize "thinking" meant "uncritically accepting what was handed down to me" | Jul 29 16:51 |
phanes | matey, because it's fictious | Jul 29 16:51 |
matey | okay, what makes it a fiction? | Jul 29 16:51 |
matey | in what way is it fictional; | Jul 29 16:51 |
MinceR | apparently people who disagree with phanes are fictional | Jul 29 16:51 |
phanes | no the people are real, they're just not very smart | Jul 29 16:51 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: "Thinking" means "classification of minutiae until complete ridiculousness". | Jul 29 16:52 |
matey | douglasadams.eu/douglas-adams-and-god-portrait-of-a-radical-atheist/ | Jul 29 16:52 |
matey | Douglas had not been an atheist all his life. When he was young, he was extremely religious. Let's remember that when he was born, his father was studying for a postgraduate degree in theology, and had a view to taking orders. Douglas was brought up in the Christian tradition. | Jul 29 16:52 |
matey | ^ didnt know that until today | Jul 29 16:52 |
matey | <phanes> no the people are real, they're just not very smart <- no one can make you qualify that, it would still be nice | Jul 29 16:52 |
MinceR | XRevan86: most things are ridiculous, especially the ones involving humans, so don't be surprised if that's what you find at the bottom | Jul 29 16:52 |
matey | adams was a self described "radical atheist" | Jul 29 16:53 |
matey | "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?" | Jul 29 16:54 |
XRevan86 | Maybe there are such things as weak anti-slaverists and strong anti-slaverists. | Jul 29 16:54 |
matey | there were actually. | Jul 29 16:54 |
XRevan86 | And slavery agnostics who haven't thought about slavery because it hasn't been on the agenda for them ever. | Jul 29 16:54 |
MinceR | if you define it, it will exist | Jul 29 16:54 |
matey | most abolitionists simply wanted to reform until slavery wasnt a big deal or it went out of style | Jul 29 16:55 |
MinceR | that's how terminology works | Jul 29 16:55 |
matey | i mean youre basically joking that politics can be radical or not | Jul 29 16:55 |
matey | which is of course true | Jul 29 16:55 |
matey | john brown was a radical abolitionist | Jul 29 16:56 |
matey | and through his actions, and the slaveowners reaction to the same, the latter radicalised the "weak" (reformist) abolitionists | Jul 29 16:56 |
matey | and it split a country and led to one of the (at the time) largest wars in history | Jul 29 16:57 |
matey | so yeah, there were weak anti-slaverists and strong ones | Jul 29 16:57 |
matey | by any reasonable measure | Jul 29 16:57 |
XRevan86 | matey: Isn't that more of a "course of action" kind of deal rather than the general opinion, as is what's always measured around religion? | Jul 29 16:58 |

matey | but imo the only advantage to distinguishing between weak and strong atheism | Jul 29 17:00 |
XRevan86 | So pretty much passive things rather than real abolition action. | Jul 29 17:01 |
matey | is to better understand that its not th same for everyone | Jul 29 17:01 |
matey | So pretty much passive things rather than real abolition action. <- yes but imo that distinction is beside the point that similar distinctions exist among both terms | Jul 29 17:01 |
XRevan86 | matey: I think that that is more of an expression thing rather than the inner state of mind. | Jul 29 17:02 |
matey | and the idea was to dismiss that distinction as silly | Jul 29 17:02 |
matey | but if if inadvertently demonstrated it further as non-silly, my point is valid | Jul 29 17:02 |
matey | again, imo. but i did explain it. | Jul 29 17:02 |
XRevan86 | Different people express their idea of why they're different from the religious folk differently. | Jul 29 17:02 |
*GNUmoon2 has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Jul 29 17:02 | |
matey | youve watered it down a little, but sure | Jul 29 17:03 |
MinceR | sometimes their idea really is different :> | Jul 29 17:04 |
matey | imo yes | Jul 29 17:04 |
XRevan86 | An atheist inherently doesn't take the whole concept of "god" seriously. | Jul 29 17:04 |
MinceR | i've even read folk claiming they're "spiritual but not religious" | Jul 29 17:04 |
*GNUmoon2 (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrights | Jul 29 17:04 | |
matey | what they mean is they like some of the ideas but not enough to convince anyone they fit a rigid system | Jul 29 17:04 |
matey | sort of religions version of non-binary (but non-integer would probably fit betteR) | Jul 29 17:05 |
XRevan86 | Trying to put on a spectre of how real their believe god to be is… the line of thinking of a theist. | Jul 29 17:05 |
matey | i dont get that part, atheists do that too | Jul 29 17:05 |
matey | also i dont think its a spectre, its a simple quantification | Jul 29 17:06 |
matey | its a category or literally a subcategory | Jul 29 17:06 |
XRevan86 | It's just not a natural way of thinking for an atheists, so they give weird answers when they're forced to look at their worldview from that perspective. | Jul 29 17:06 |
matey | this is a weird line of thinking | Jul 29 17:06 |
matey | occam lends himself really easily to this | Jul 29 17:07 |
XRevan86 | matey: Consider how people would answer "how real are the elves". | Jul 29 17:07 |
matey | thats not an accurate summary | Jul 29 17:07 |
XRevan86 | The variety will surprise you | Jul 29 17:07 |
XRevan86 | Even though no one takes elves seriously. | Jul 29 17:07 |
matey | i would say that people who prefer darker colours include people who prefer green, people who prefer blue and people who prefer violet | Jul 29 17:07 |
matey | and that this is not a nonsensical statement, but a perfectly reasonable one | Jul 29 17:08 |
MinceR | "Go not to the Elves for counsel, for they will say both no and yes." | Jul 29 17:08 |
matey | atheists include people who believe there is no god and people who have no belief | Jul 29 17:08 |
XRevan86 | Elves exist for no one, and yet we'll find weak aelfists and strong aelfists. | Jul 29 17:08 |
matey | i thought this was a settled matter in the dictionary and general understanding | Jul 29 17:09 |
matey | but i guess anything can be disputed | Jul 29 17:09 |
XRevan86 | matey: What do ye believe regarding elves? They don't exist, no belief or other? | Jul 29 17:09 |
XRevan86 | Then repeat for gnomes, goblins and The Doctor (Who). | Jul 29 17:10 |

The minimum wage was $2.10 per hour. So a kid had to work less than half a day to earn enough to go to the gig. Today the minimum wage is a miserly $7.25 an hour.

MinceR | there's something in scripture (which already existed before christianity) that they believe justifies banning abortion | Jul 29 18:53 |
MinceR | one of the problems with the bible is that it's inconsistent and vague | Jul 29 18:54 |
matey | actually that wasnt always a problem | Jul 29 18:54 |
MinceR | so all sorts of nutcases can find something in there to support their ideology and justify their acts | Jul 29 18:54 |
matey | which supports my poin | Jul 29 18:54 |
matey | so all sorts of nutcases can find something <- this option was always open | Jul 29 18:54 |
matey | but fundamentalism, and specifically literalism came along | Jul 29 18:54 |
matey | thanks to rome, you know | Jul 29 18:54 |
matey | and sort of triumphed over the traditional way of reading the old testament | Jul 29 18:55 |
matey | of course on the rabbinic side you have another kettle of fish | Jul 29 18:55 |
matey | gradually transforming torah into something more literal through rabbis coding laws around it | Jul 29 18:56 |
matey | which is the same problem, but not as bad as having people do the trailer park tv preacher version | Jul 29 18:56 |
MinceR | to me it seems that not insisting on being literal gives one more options, not fewer | Jul 29 18:56 |
matey | nonetheless this came much later | Jul 29 18:56 |
matey | not insisting on being literal gives one more options, not fewer <- thats exactly what it does | Jul 29 18:56 |
matey | even today | Jul 29 18:56 |
matey | but some people liked literalism, because theyre stupid | Jul 29 18:57 |

matey | not all of it, certainly most of it | Jul 29 18:57 |

matey | less to fight over | Jul 29 18:59 |
matey | when it was more literal, now disagreements became splits | Jul 29 18:59 |
MinceR | in one case, you get to "justify" something if you can find some text that literally says what you want | Jul 29 18:59 |
MinceR | in the other case, even that is not necessary, you just wave your hands | Jul 29 19:00 |
MinceR | and scripture supports your "point" | Jul 29 19:00 |
matey | waving your hands is less compelling than "theres only one way to read this" | Jul 29 19:00 |
matey | which do you think lent itself to bloodier wars | Jul 29 19:00 |
MinceR | well, there's that | Jul 29 19:00 |
matey | i mean history supports my argument-- its based on what actually happened | Jul 29 19:00 |
MinceR | though i think people should be more difficult to compel than either of those | Jul 29 19:00 |
matey | you sound like youre agreeing, until you insist otherwise | Jul 29 19:00 |
matey | but if you dont agree, then youre throwing out what happened and how it played out historically | Jul 29 19:01 |
matey | the more literal it got, the more contentious and bloody it got | Jul 29 19:01 |
matey | the more fundamentalism sprang up | Jul 29 19:01 |
matey | though even i would say that had as much to do with other disparities | Jul 29 19:01 |
matey | what changed is that religion had less power to bring people together | Jul 29 19:02 |
MinceR | correlation does not imply causation, though :> | Jul 29 19:02 |
matey | but either way its bad | Jul 29 19:02 |
matey | i mean we can always fall back on that | Jul 29 19:02 |
matey | and if we do so enough, the only way we will ever be convinced of causation is when its also unsupported by correlation :) | Jul 29 19:02 |
matey | sooner or later there will be an explanation that is plausible in how it works | Jul 29 19:05 |
matey | whic goes beyond correlation | Jul 29 19:05 |
matey | but if it works, correlation will also b a likely biproduct | Jul 29 19:05 |

DaemonFC | WGN was talking about "lottery jackpots", so I replied: | Jul 29 19:42 |
DaemonFC | Each week, they sell about hundreds of millions of tickets that lose. They take most of the money. The pot grows until 8-9 weeks in, someone wins. After the state took half the money. Then when someone wins after billions of $20 tickets were sold (where the government already took half), they tax it and take half the "winnings". In the mean time, they pay "the news" to blast lottery propaganda about "winnings". | Jul 29 19:42 |
DaemonFC | Most of the people who play the lottery a lot are poor and will never win anything and don't understand just how bad the odds really are. This enables the state to avoid taxing rich people because they can get poor people to pay for everything through the lottery scam. | Jul 29 19:42 |
DaemonFC | Eventually, when someone does win, it usually results in "the lottery winner's curse". It will go to someone with such poor money management skills that $300 million dollars disappears in 4-5 years and they die penniless in a trailer park. | Jul 29 19:42 |
DaemonFC | In most states, the lottery wasn't even legal until about 1990. In Indiana it wasn't legal until about 1990, which is when the state realized just how much money it was foregoing by legalizing gambling, which is socially undesirable and ruins lives with addiction. Since the lottery was legalized, the state lied about where the money would go. It said roads and public pensions, then it cut taxes on the rich and stuffed the lottery money into the | Jul 29 19:46 |
DaemonFC | general fund. | Jul 29 19:46 |
DaemonFC | Today, Illinois does the same thing with weed, and after they want to spend even more than the casinos, lottery, and legal dope take in, perhaps they'll make crack, shrooms, acid, meth, and opioids legal too. Then prostitution will be fine because the state is your pimp, drug dealer, and gambling hustler. | Jul 29 19:46 |

DaemonFC | Nobody is going to raise hell, so they'll arrest you. | Jul 29 20:14 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR2], You know what I always say. If you're committing a felony, don't commit a petty offense that draws attention. | Jul 29 20:17 |

DaemonFC | Police look for minor offenses and "tells". | Jul 29 20:20 |
DaemonFC | A "tell" is not an offense, but it gets you flagged for more scrutiny, like deliberately avoiding eye contact (making an effort to not look in their general direction). | Jul 29 20:20 |
