schestowitz-pi2after 4 days i realise cecil is still not properly leveraged for my workflow, rethinking it nowApr 01 04:25
schestowitz-pi2maybe we can exchange tipsApr 01 04:25
schestowitz-pi2i've done multi-heads since the 90sApr 01 04:26
techrights[sec]I've not much experience with multi-head systems so will defer to your experience there.  I've only occasionallApr 01 04:26

schestowitz-pi2if you use virtual desktops, that's a candidate for another screenApr 01 04:28
schestowitz-pi2so only the eye moves, not the finger or the headApr 01 04:28
schestowitz-pi2eyes can move fast and field of vision has a "sense" to itApr 01 04:28
schestowitz-pi2if you can minimise pixel changes or limit them to meaninfuleventsApr 01 04:28

techrights[sec]desktop switcher has no borders marking the different voirtual desktops thusApr 01 04:33
techrights[sec]rendering it almost useless as a tool.  There used to be bright lines betweenApr 01 04:33
techrights[sec]each one, now there is no way to tell without hovering the mouse to see the Apr 01 04:33
techrights[sec]popup warning.Apr 01 04:33
techrights[sec]I don't really have space for even a second screen and during the summer I am Apr 01 04:33
techrights[sec]outdoors as much as I can get away with.  There that darkmode fetish thatApr 01 04:33
techrights[sec]"developers" are foisting on everyone is really problematic.  Apr 01 04:33
schestowitz-pi2yes, i have a bunch of unverified theories about why "dark mode" became a thingApr 01 04:34
schestowitz-pi2it's not about saving battery Apr 01 04:34
*DaemonFC has quit (connection closed)Apr 01 04:36
techrights[sec]No it is not.  I'm not sure what it is about except that anti-accessibilityApr 01 04:43
techrights[sec]plays a big role.Apr 01 04:43
schestowitz-pi2i have only theories about itApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2btw, ytalk jitters as i adjust fontsApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2konsole outside kde plasma can act a little strange if the fonts are not monoApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2i am still not sure about cecilApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2i keep gravitating back towards how it used to beApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2no matter how wrongApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2old habitsApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2like running back to quiterssApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2it was always a bad ideaApr 01 04:45
schestowitz-pi2custom-made is waaaayyy betterApr 01 04:45
techrights[sec]Yes, that's as it should be, the end-user in control.Apr 01 04:46
techrights[sec]sorry, misreadApr 01 04:46
schestowitz-pi2rianne and i spoke about past, future etc. for an hour yesterdayApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2the context being undefined, but one thing that i brought up wasApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2there is abundance of codeApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2or softwareApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2and coders of softwareApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2what we need it hacker, integrators, tweakersApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2and more custom-madeApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2not proprietary shit with 10,000 features (photoshop etc.)Apr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2blender is apparently bloated tooApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2not sure of obs... never tried proprietary counterpartsApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2so rather than metaverse or hey hi or iot or smart etc.Apr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2we need a wave of change towards companies hiring people to make tools in-houseApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2using freeswApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2sort of like many handle linux device driversApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2hire kernel hacker, push upstream some code for your $productApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2feature churn era is overApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2companies won't pay 150k a year for devs to sit on their hands or add more bloatApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2the customers likely use just 10% of the "features"Apr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2and overpay for things they never useApr 01 04:49
schestowitz-pi2field of vision, vertical, horizontal, "phones" way too small, one input device needed, or a pair (two hands)Apr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2lessen signal to least necessaryApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2but broaden view of tools neededApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2like in an operating roomApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2identify tasks, itemise, some are polled for, scripts possibleApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2amfora has a nice feature, bright red error when timing outApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2i use this to detect gemini downtime very fastApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2always have 3 sessions of amfora open, one is for local weather forecastApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2backups monitor for external drive on the pi (gemini etc. even working files of rianne and i, we save text over ssApr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2h)Apr 01 04:54
techrights[sec]The phones were only briefly about trying to get anything done, that stopped  Apr 01 04:54
techrights[sec]years ago and everything has moved to "engagement"Apr 01 04:54
schestowitz-pi2blackberry: "boss" checked urgent email on the go, replies quickly over 2/3gApr 01 04:58
schestowitz-pi2using physical keyboard (those are extinct again) Apr 01 04:58
schestowitz-pi2now the interfaces need one or two fingers (most humans have 10 fingers, some have more if chromosomes go wrong)Apr 01 04:58
schestowitz-pi2with coding several screens can help, e.g. compile in bg, show gui while you edit codeApr 01 04:58
schestowitz-pi2one working area, one previewApr 01 04:58
schestowitz-pi2for sys admin, there is monitoring tooApr 01 04:59
schestowitz-pi2not counting chatsApr 01 04:59
schestowitz-pi2sysadmin tasksd = distraction when coding Apr 01 04:59
schestowitz-pi2like colleagues at "open offices"-style workplacesApr 01 04:59
schestowitz-pi2open offices = "engagement" for redundant MBAs or PHBs (not a "racist" term)Apr 01 04:59
techrights[sec]Development and operations are two distinct tasks with two diametrically   Apr 01 04:59
techrights[sec]opposed ways of thinking,  They cannot be soundly merged,  Apr 01 04:59
schestowitz-pi2sometimes there is no choice anymore, they even made a buzzword for itApr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2to demand that workers do two jobs at the same time, for same salaryApr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2"devOOPS" [sic]Apr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2at shops I now see the staff doing all the tasks/jobsApr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2letting the customers serve [sic] themselvesApr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2while they stock shelves, clean the floor etc.Apr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2this does not work well, as it means people are left hanging and no specialisationApr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2"debvops"Apr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2=concentrate hard with colleagues piercing apples and farting around youApr 01 05:02

schestowitz-pi2do a task, then somehow go backj to sleep, and back to work by 9amApr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2for the farts and chewing noisesApr 01 05:02
schestowitz-pi2then we blame you for being "quiet quitter"Apr 01 05:02
techrights[sec]The stupidity there is that because the styles of thinking necessary for eitherApr 01 05:03
techrights[sec]tasks are so radically different there in an enormous cost for task-switchingApr 01 05:03
techrights[sec]All that kind of treatment does to staff is make them less efficient and makeApr 01 05:03
techrights[sec]them feel overworked.  I would guess that both points are actual goals with    Apr 01 05:03
techrights[sec]emphasis on having then feel frazzled and thus easy to push aroundApr 01 05:03
schestowitz-pi2at sirius you needed to be clearApr 01 05:06
schestowitz-pi2for code that's a different salaryApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2and different roleApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2for what they paid me i chased tickets, responded to downtime, low disk etc.Apr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2it became easy towards the endApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2but then came shit clientsApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2and the company had no future Apr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2we left at the "right" timeApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2rianne was gonna be busy with many other things anywayApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2and relative to cost of items at stores the salary became lowApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2btw, rianne was in town yesterday, "Homesense" has shut downApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2after like... maybe over a decadeApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2the malls have many empty spaces in them, it's hard for them to cover/board upApr 01 05:07
schestowitz-pi2white elephants, and online retail isn't all the rage eitherApr 01 05:07
techrights[sec]Malls have bad ventilation, or at least always have the times I've ever visitedApr 01 05:16

schestowitz-pi2or "windows licence is too expensive"Apr 01 05:22
techrights[sec]yepApr 01 05:30

techrights[sec]I wonder if the lying has become normalized even in neighboring countries too?Apr 01 11:48
techrights[sec]"Both" cultures used to eschew lying just two generations ago.Apr 01 11:48
techrights[sec]In Sweden the excuse can be that they have gone far into their goal of         Apr 01 11:48
techrights[sec]integrating their society into islam.  Can't guess about here, it's just soApr 01 11:48
techrights[sec]pervasive in society that it is a real culture shock still.   Apr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]No backup, just an anecdote about people lying when  they don't have toApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]and my language skills are such that I just havce to leave it be as I can'tApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]deal with a Gish-gallop of lies.  If the discussions starts and remains 100%Apr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]English from start to finish then it is usually on the level. However if it isApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]in the local dialect or bilingual then the lies come out by the bucket.  yes, Apr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]Nothing crucial.  It's just that lying is *the* backbone of the culture.  NotApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]bluster and posturing like in Latin cultures, but out right lies when there isApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]opportunity to lie not even when there is a need or advantage to.  Apr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]As mentioned it remains a culture shock to me.  Apr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]You see it with the politicians in regards to the patents, re: ms pyjanmasApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]I had to get about 1km out in the woods with a stiff breeze blowing to getApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]away from the stink of the motorway since the wind is blowing the wrong direction today.  I'd be curious to figueApr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]re out what percentage of each Eur spent on Apr 01 11:49
techrights[sec]fossil fuel comes back in the form of mosques and other problems.Apr 01 11:49

techrights[sec]]to press the wrong key or several keys at once.Apr 01 12:02
techrights[sec]Yet at the same time the shift key is not as sensitive as it could be so Apr 01 12:02
techrights[sec]ctrl-shift-c sometimes ends up as ctrl-c or like earlier today Apr 01 12:02
techrights[sec]ctrl-shift-v ended up as ctrl-c-v due to both hitting two keys at once yet notApr 01 12:02
techrights[sec]triggering the shift key properlyApr 01 12:02
