[00:02]	TR News	Judging the "success" of FOSS NGO by how much money it is amassing is like judging the worth of a person by bodyweight
[00:04]	MinceR	the latter is pretty common too :>
[00:06]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, He's still the only fat guy in the country.

[00:06]	DaemonFC	Everyone else seems to be willing to run though a field of landmines and possibly get shot in the back for a chance at making it to South Korea if they think they have any chance at all.

[00:09]	DaemonFC	kingoffrance was right though.
[00:09]	DaemonFC	The sabotage seems to not work as well when the chunks in a torrent are smaller.
[00:10]	DaemonFC	The one I have now is 1 MB chunks and even though malicious peers manage to sabotage some, by the time they do, I already have several other good chunks.

[00:10]	IPFS	IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 8.46 k/sec., IPFS upstream 165.03 average k/sec., average swarm size 247.53
[00:10]	DaemonFC	1 MB is not the most efficient chunk size, but when you're under attack it can limit the damage from a few malicious peers.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	To get a chunk, you have to set up a negotiation/connection with the peer, and that's overhead.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	And then you only get 1 MB and have to do this all the time, each time only getting 1 MB for the trouble of setting up the connection.
[00:12]	DaemonFC	In a swarm with no malicious peers, you could jack up the size of the chunks to 4 or 8 MB and cut the overhead down, as well as mitigating the loss if some peers disconnect in the middle of the chunk and you have to connect somewhere else and restart the chunk.
[00:13]	MinceR	schestowitz-TR: it is nowadays more commonly the other way around, i think
[00:13]	DaemonFC	16 MB is a bad chunk size if you anticipate that peers will disconnect or that there will be malicious peers, because they can just feed you a lot of crap and very little good data gets through because you download so much crap it ties up your connection and client getting it and find out it's no good, over and over again.
[00:14]	DaemonFC	People who know what the fuck they're doing who make a torrent tend to stick to about 4 MB chunks.
[00:15]	DaemonFC	If the torrent is extremely small, 1 MB or 2 MB will also be okay.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	These earplugs are a real life saver.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	The upstairs neighbors listen to rap.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	It's bad enough when you can make out the lyrics. Mostly obscene and unintelligible.
[00:18]	DaemonFC	But when there's a wall, it's just an annoying thump.

[01:01]	DaemonFC	HIV is one of the most expensive conditions to treat.

[01:01]	DaemonFC	Yeah, I know some people with it.
[01:01]	DaemonFC	Some are on government programs.

[02:08]	DaemonFC	I need to get a bacon rack for the microwave.
[02:08]	DaemonFC	I almost never use the microwave.
[02:09]	DaemonFC	My dad was so cheap when I was a kid that we had one of the first microwaves they ever built because in the 1970s, mom said "Whatever you do, don't buy a microwave. They're just a glorified hotdog cooker!".
[02:09]	DaemonFC	So he ran out the next day and bought one for $500, in the 70s.
[02:10]	DaemonFC	And we had to keep it forever because that's how dad was about everything, so it followed us around every move.
[02:11]	DaemonFC	And in the 90s, I was afraid of the damned thing, even more so when my dad brought home a "tricorder mark I" from work (which was a real thing) and it was leaking a shit ton of EM band radiation. I used to run and hide behind the wall until it dinged if I did use it.
[02:12]	DaemonFC	So I just fry bacon on the skillet and boil hotdogs.
[02:12]	DaemonFC	I only use the microwave for leftovers.
[02:15]	DaemonFC	It's like every appliance. 
[02:16]	DaemonFC	$500 in 1974 was almost $3,000 today.
[02:16]	DaemonFC	Imagine paying $3,000 for a microwave today. But it's how gadgets are.
[02:17]	DaemonFC	You soak the early adopters who want to brag that they own one. Then the market becomes saturated and there's few left in each price range that still want one, and the price creeps down.
[02:20]	DaemonFC	What's going on with iPhones now is everyone has them, the snob appeal is pretty much gone, and there's a huge outflow to Android because people go "You know what, these aren't terribly impressive and all you use it for is online banking and hate liking other people's vacation on Facebook and making phone calls. I think I'll go get the $300 Android phone instead. It does all that.".

[19:44]	DaemonFC	Someone told me I'm a hypocrite for having an Android phone that cost a few hundred bucks (that I rarely use for apps because apps are stupid and always want on your phone instead of the website because that way they can spy on you more, especially car insurance companies), but Apple's top of the line iPhone costs them less than $240 to produce, retails for almost $2,000, and then the people making them have living conditions like this, and 
[19:44]	DaemonFC	suicide nets, while Tim Cook shakes hands with Trump and enters into contracts with ICE and HSI to help deport immigrants, and funded Trump 2020 (as a gay man himself) so we could get more Republican Supreme Court judges to reverse the marriage equality decision and others.
[19:44]	DaemonFC	Apple is a filthy rotten company, and they're a meme to boot. In 1974, my mom told my dad, "Whatever you do, don't get a microwave oven. They're an overglorified hotdog cooker." so he rushed out and bought one the next day for $500 ($3,000 with inflation). They always start very high because nobody has one yet and they want to feel snobbish and elite, and then when everyone has one and you're not special anymore, usually the price falls.
[19:44]	DaemonFC	But with iPhones, the price continues to go up, because their strategy is more like cigarettes. Apple lost (another) 14% of the smartphone market share in 2020 to Android and another 3% again this year, but they keep making money by selling less phones, to the even more incompetent user who will stick around and pay THAT even when smartphones aren't very useful and people who rushed to buy an iPhone eventually caught on that it's an 
[19:44]	DaemonFC	overglorified text messaging device.

Our resident Windows expert Zac Bowden gave the OS a positive score in his incredible in-depth review and I agree with the majority of what was written. Where Windows 11 falls flat for me, however, is with the installation process. It's an absolute mess.'

[22:42]	MinceR	every OS is absolute total garbage
[22:42]	MinceR	this whole industry is absolute total garbage
[22:43]	psydroid4	I agree with that, but even then there are degrees of garbage
[22:43]	MinceR	i'm tired of every degree
[22:44]	MinceR	i had a power outage for a few minutes and both laptops (one running openbsd, the other running gnu/linux) went full retard
[22:44]	MinceR	no error handling, no error recovery
[22:44]	MinceR	and on the gaming laptop i run backdoors10, on which explorer.exe freezing for 5 minutes is just standard now
[22:44]	psydroid4	I'm tired of it too, but until we have replacements I am trying to make the best out of this huge pile of garbage
[22:45]		*zleap has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[22:45]	MinceR	on the gnu/linux laptop, the battery bulged and it required 3 hands to remove because it was designed by retards
[22:45]	MinceR	(thinkpad x270)
[22:45]	MinceR	also the fan died so i'm not sure if i'll dare turn it on again
[22:45]	psydroid4	I don't have backdoors 10/11 except for a pair of VMs
[22:46]	psydroid4	the industry has become the enemy of the people who operate computers
[22:46]	psydroid4	so it should be wiped out
[22:48]	XRevan86	MinceR: 3 hands? How come?
[22:48]	XRevan86	On X230 there are two fixators, and one of them doesn't require to be held in an open position.
[22:48]	MinceR	there are 2 spring-loaded latches you must hold while sliding out the battery
[22:48]	MinceR	yeah, lenovo got rid of every engineer since then
[22:49]	MinceR	now both latches are spring-loaded, because fuck the user
[22:49]	MinceR	but they still call these piles of garbage "thinkpad"
[22:49]	psydroid4	I'm worried about hardware that has come out since 2017
[22:49]	XRevan86	I have to admit I did forget to close that other latch a few times.
[22:49]	MinceR	my X60s will still be workable (though too slow to run practically anything) when this will just be a pile of ash
[22:50]	psydroid4	if (industry standard) systems are all garbage, why should I even get something new
[22:51]	XRevan86	psydroid4: "too slow to run practically anything" <- Probably that.
[22:52]	psydroid4	XRevan86, do you see a Core i7-6700HQ with 32 GB of RAM not being sufficient to "run practically anything" in the near future?
[22:52]	psydroid4	if that is the case I'm screwed and many others, because that is about the most powerful hardware I have
[22:52]	XRevan86	psydroid4: That is pretty new.
[22:53]	psydroid4	from 2016
[22:53]	XRevan86	psydroid4: My laptop is from 2012.
