| techrights[sec]_ | .odp on the RPi here, comments and adjustments welcome | Jul 11 03:41 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | checking | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | original never upgrade to gallery3 | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | but was on gallery2 | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | i saw no typos, looks good and concise | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | TM turns 20 next, performance aspects can be measured for tm-new | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | then again, you would be measuring apache/static, not perl | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | and the pages are light | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | if they were not, page loads would be slower -> worse experience | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | atm i left aside articles for a bit to better write my filter | Jul 11 03:48 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | as some FOSS news falls through the cracks | Jul 11 03:48 |
| techrights[sec]_ | thanks, fixing | Jul 11 03:49 |
| techrights[sec]_ | The official slot is a 25-minute session but because it is the last of three | Jul 11 03:49 |
| techrights[sec]_ | pre-lunch presentations there might be as little as 10 minutes | Jul 11 03:49 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Yes, but the performance would still kind of be relevant. The perl produced | Jul 11 03:49 |
| techrights[sec]_ | the static pages and the static pages are a zillion times faster to fetch | Jul 11 03:49 |
| techrights[sec]_ | than the dynamic stuff. | Jul 11 03:49 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | i will give you some figures; | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | add/update takes about the same amount of time | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | add/change db takes very little time | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | producing the pages does not take long | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | making changes to front page, nearby pages, rss etc is what takes time | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | for rianne and i same speed | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | down to the connection speed (ssh) | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | but mostly the backend | Jul 11 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | total time about 8 seconds | Jul 11 03:52 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | 2 for rss | Jul 11 03:52 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | 2 for html | Jul 11 03:52 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | this has not slowed down over time | Jul 11 03:52 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | but it did used to slow down over time | Jul 11 03:52 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | until you changed the code | Jul 11 03:52 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | i will be parly "afk" (not really) as i urgently need to catch up | Jul 11 03:53 |

| techrights[sec]_ | Very nice! Many such canned goods are very difficult to get in Europe. | Jul 11 09:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | There is one shop in Kemi for Asian goods but nothing nearby. That's more than | Jul 11 09:05 |

| techrights[sec]_ | They opened up about 6 months prior to the 2015 on slaught. | Jul 11 09:05 |

| techrights[sec]_ | I'm usually careful about where the food is grown and make a point of | Jul 11 09:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | avoiding sponsorhip of horrible regime and cultures. I was stuck yesterday | Jul 11 09:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | though as I have planned for month to use a vanilla bean in a recipe for | Jul 11 09:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | tomorrow (birthday) but unable to find one grown in a civil country. So | Jul 11 09:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | that was a very rare exception. | Jul 11 09:14 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | vanilla causes environmental problems | Jul 11 09:15 |
| techrights[sec]_ | racist psyops campaign: https://text.npr.org/1185780577 | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | increasing hatred against the culture as prep for open warfare later | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Vanilla is fine, especially mexican vanilla. Vanillin, the synthetic variant | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | on the other hand causes terrible environmental problems as well as is | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | a minor neurotoxin. However Mexican vanilla beans are *very* hard to find | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Mexico is the origin of the vanilla orchid and there is even a specie of | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | ant which live in symbiosis with the orchid and provides for pollination. | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Elsewhere the flowers must be manually fertilized. | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | We use one or two beans per year but that is too much money to send to | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Indonesia or other horrid cultures. Yes, Borneo, Bali, and Java used to | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | be independent cultures under Indonesia but transmigration has been doing | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | to them the same as what has happened in West Papua. | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | There are only two chains in town which stock vanilla beans and although | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | we were at both, it did not occur to me to check the other one first before | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | heading to our main store. | Jul 11 09:24 |
| techrights[sec]_ | We got what was on sale and moved on, forgetting the special items. | Jul 11 09:24 |

| techrights[sec]_ | Apropos the upcoming NATO summit gollum controls the turkish parliament | Jul 11 09:28 |

| techrights[sec]_ | Best to keep the drivers' license just in case, even if you never use it. | Jul 11 14:26 |
| techrights[sec]_ | It's not much of a savings to skip renewing it and, at least for now, there | Jul 11 14:26 |
| techrights[sec]_ | is the potential for more flexibility. | Jul 11 14:26 |
| techrights[sec]_ | If you need to rent a car or small truck to move people or stuff, there is the | Jul 11 14:26 |
| techrights[sec]_ | option, | Jul 11 14:26 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | yes, but hiring men and van is typicvally cheaper and faster than all the paperwork | Jul 11 14:28 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | and going to the agencies, if it's a one-off move | Jul 11 14:28 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | rianne recently asked about opening a stall at the market and checked suppliers | Jul 11 14:28 |

| schestowitz-pi3 | be offset by sales | Jul 11 14:28 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Yes, it depends on the task, but leaving the option open has value too. | Jul 11 14:30 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Insurance is a lot if it cannot be tacked onto some pre-existing policy. | Jul 11 14:30 |
| techrights[sec]_ | I was just thinking last week about how lawyers and insurance killed a large | Jul 11 14:30 |

| techrights[sec]_ | The prices in the grocery store have gone through the roof so I expect that | Jul 11 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | the prices in the pubs have risen even faster and even higher. | Jul 11 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | IIRC 13% of this country is considered to be at or below poverty levels | Jul 11 14:34 |

| techrights[sec]_ | That's an improvement, any word on the diagnosis? | Jul 11 16:36 |
| techrights[sec]_ | PS. Congrats again on calling the /latest/ round of m$ layoffs ahead of time | Jul 11 16:36 |
| techrights[sec]_ | That probaby really pissed them off even more. :) | Jul 11 16:36 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | correcting | Jul 11 16:38 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | my nephew can walk again | Jul 11 16:38 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | guessing the layoffs was not hard if you speak and read | Jul 11 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | some insiders know and hear "things" | Jul 11 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | the diasgonis is not "known" yet | Jul 11 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | guessing layoffs is risky | Jul 11 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | you can end up losing a lot in credibility | Jul 11 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | but we've had good track record in recent years | Jul 11 16:41 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | the media is starting to improve this afternoon, see latest links in TM | Jul 11 16:41 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | they added "caveat" | Jul 11 16:41 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | MSFT evasive | Jul 11 16:41 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Yes, but there is an important step: that of publishing! | Jul 11 16:42 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Is your nephew getting better on the whole or just walking again_ | Jul 11 16:42 |
| techrights[sec]_ | ? | Jul 11 16:42 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | seems so | Jul 11 16:43 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | let me correct the typo before i forgot | Jul 11 16:43 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | see my covid-19 post, maybe tyops there too | Jul 11 16:43 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | but the screenshots matter more | Jul 11 16:43 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | notice they make comparisons HARDER | Jul 11 16:43 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | the sheets changed completely | Jul 11 16:43 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | not consistent | Jul 11 16:43 |
| techrights[sec]_ | They continue to do a lot to obfuscate anything they can. I would posit that | Jul 11 16:45 |
| techrights[sec]_ | they still spend more on marketing than on any other single line item per | Jul 11 16:45 |
| techrights[sec]_ | division / project but since about 20 years back they've gone to great | Jul 11 16:45 |
| techrights[sec]_ | efforts to obfuscate that in particular. | Jul 11 16:45 |
