| IsambardPrince | schestowitz-pi2: So where does this idea of British politeness come in? I certainly do not see it. | May 30 18:56 |

| techrights-sec2 | May 30 18:57 | |
| techrights-sec2 | afk | May 30 18:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | did something happen? | May 30 18:58 |
| IsambardPrince | Oh, maybe some of the people who get on mailing lists are just not your best. | May 30 18:59 |
| IsambardPrince | In my opinion, even Hans Reiser seemed less abusive toward other people on the projects than Leah Rowe. | May 30 19:02 |
| IsambardPrince | I wonder what's going on in the world of actually Free x86 boot firmware outside of "Libreboot". | May 30 19:02 |
| IsambardPrince | Hans Reiser's sentence for depriving someone of the rest of their life and taking away the mother of their children was a gift. | May 30 19:03 |
| IsambardPrince | A gift, I think, from a broken system with a liberal prosecutor who just didn't care and didn't want to do his job. | May 30 19:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | <techrights-news> "I have even sent a followup email asking for recommendations of a static web site developer, but only now have I remembered to [t]hank you." https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreplanet-discuss/2024-05/msg00032.html | May 30 19:03 |
| IsambardPrince | But aside from that, he was accused frequently of being a jerk. | May 30 19:04 |
| IsambardPrince | I never witnessed Reiser bringing in code that was even half as broken as some of the shit they blindly merge now. | May 30 19:04 |
| IsambardPrince | And even if he ever did, so what? It's a file system that was never the default and affects nothing if you don't use it. | May 30 19:05 |
| IsambardPrince | The QA process for code that ends up in widespread, unavoidable (or barely avoidable) places that almost all users have to deal with, is not a great one. | May 30 19:05 |
| IsambardPrince | It was better in the mid 2000s. | May 30 19:05 |
| IsambardPrince | But now if it gets flatly rejected, there's a lot of argumentum ad hominem. | May 30 19:06 |
| IsambardPrince | So they just merge it in whatever state it's in so it won't be career ending to have mailing list drama. | May 30 19:07 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz-pi2: I think we need more people like Theo de Raadt. | May 30 19:09 |
| IsambardPrince | He still rejects bad things. | May 30 19:09 |
| IsambardPrince | It would be nice, however, if there was a "Do it for me." installer for an OS based on OpenBSD. | May 30 19:09 |
| IsambardPrince | I mean, this is why Linux got marketshare and BSD didn't on the desktop. | May 30 19:10 |

| IsambardPrince | No user wants to read through manuals and putter around without a GUI trying to figure out what's a base system or not and how to go about getting a productive OS. | May 30 19:10 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz-pi2: I'll go to Aldi to get stuff for dinner over the next week, again. I had forgotten how much extra you pay at the store for not having a shopping cart deposit or paying if you want to avoid buying bags at checkout instead of reusing or pulling some empty boxes off the shelf at the store and carrying them along. | May 30 19:14 |
| IsambardPrince | All this stuff is "free" and makes it into the price. $18 an hour for someone to push carts, and then they call in and no carts, and the stupid managers can't figure out why there's no carts. No carts means less people in there spending, means less hours. | May 30 19:15 |
| IsambardPrince | Walmart hires managers that can't figure this out. | May 30 19:15 |
| *ghostrider has quit (connection closed) | May 30 19:16 | |
| IsambardPrince | They really can't figure out why there's not a lot of spend when they don't even round up the shopping carts, but the prices soar. | May 30 19:16 |
| IsambardPrince | So there's less incentive to go in. Anything that works against the customer means they spend less. | May 30 19:16 |
| IsambardPrince | Which chips away at the bottom line. | May 30 19:16 |
| IsambardPrince | So eventually since nobody polices the shopping carts, they shut down another store due to lack of sales. | May 30 19:17 |

| IsambardPrince | They have no authority at all. | May 30 22:01 |
| IsambardPrince | Their job is to get blamed for everything and fired every year so that the upper managers don't have to admit they fucked up. | May 30 22:01 |
| IsambardPrince | It's not a fun job unless you're a district manager or higher. | May 30 22:01 |
| IsambardPrince | It's one of those things where if you can survive and get big, you're set. | May 30 22:02 |
| IsambardPrince | Most people can't do that, so they waste all this money sending them to management school. Thing is, most don't even get fired. | May 30 22:03 |
| IsambardPrince | They put them under stress until they leave. | May 30 22:03 |
| IsambardPrince | Like, we had to cut hours this week. Hey, you're on salary. Why don't you stay over another 30 hours and do grunt work on top of the 40 you're a manager. | May 30 22:03 |
| IsambardPrince | I keep explaining to people, eventually you're never not there. | May 30 22:04 |
| IsambardPrince | Eventually you will just sleep in your car when you can get some sleep there. | May 30 22:04 |
| IsambardPrince | The whole thing expands and expands and you are there six days a week getting paid for five. Sometimes seven. | May 30 22:05 |
| IsambardPrince | It becomes your entire life. | May 30 22:05 |
| IsambardPrince | At least that's what it was like 20 years ago. | May 30 22:05 |
| IsambardPrince | Knew a friend whose mother worked at Meijer. They did the same thing to her. | May 30 22:05 |
| IsambardPrince | She sat down one day in 2003 and told me "You know, they call me a manager, but if you divide my salary by the hours I'm there, they pay the cart pushers more money." | May 30 22:06 |
