cubezzz | I saw a guy on an electric bike today | May 04 04:18 |
cubezzz | I bet they are getting more common | May 04 04:18 |
DaemonFC | probably | May 04 04:20 |
DaemonFC | they're usually sufficient for running around town | May 04 04:20 |
DaemonFC | as long as you do't need to bring a (heavy/odd shaped/lots of) stuff with you | May 04 04:21 |
DaemonFC | :) | May 04 04:21 |
DaemonFC | *any | May 04 04:21 |
cubezzz | a full load of groceries might be tricky | May 04 04:22 |
DaemonFC | but it can reduce your dependence on your car | May 04 04:22 |
cubezzz | or you could just make more trips with less | May 04 04:22 |
DaemonFC | at least half my running around is doable on the bike | May 04 04:22 |
DaemonFC | even now that my car works, I will continue to use the bike for running errands | May 04 04:22 |
DaemonFC | saves a lot of gas | May 04 04:22 |
cubezzz | gas is a significant expense | May 04 04:23 |
cubezzz | it's around a dollar per litre here :) | May 04 04:23 |
DaemonFC | $2.88 a gallon | May 04 04:23 |
cubezzz | $3.78 a gallon :-/ | May 04 04:24 |
cubezzz | actually your gas is relatively cheap | May 04 04:24 |
DaemonFC | yikes | May 04 04:24 |
cubezzz | even higher in Europe DaemonFC | May 04 04:24 |
DaemonFC | yeah, I was pissed when it got over $3 a gallon | May 04 04:24 |
DaemonFC | livid actually | May 04 04:24 |
DaemonFC | doesn't surprise me | May 04 04:25 |
DaemonFC | probably all that carbon tax bullshit | May 04 04:25 |
cubezzz | the problem with the bike is people stealing them | May 04 04:25 |
cubezzz | like if you go to the mall... | May 04 04:25 |
cubezzz | but that is probably safe enough | May 04 04:26 |
DaemonFC | when I go to Walmart, I park it inside the store, right next to where the greeter sits | May 04 04:26 |
cubezzz | ah :) | May 04 04:26 |
DaemonFC | throw the batteries in my shopping cart | May 04 04:26 |
DaemonFC | lol | May 04 04:26 |
cubezzz | plus you could remove both wheels :) | May 04 04:27 |
cubezzz | but that would be a pain | May 04 04:27 |
DaemonFC | if they steal it, they have a big heavy bike that they need $260 worth of batteries for | May 04 04:27 |
DaemonFC | way to go, huh? :) | May 04 04:27 |
DaemonFC | 1. They'd need one battery to make it work at all. ($130) 2. They'd have a used bike that's $400 new WITH a battery which is now used and not with battery. | May 04 04:29 |
DaemonFC | If they wanted to sell it as a used bike, they'd get $200, after buying $130 battery and net about $70 | May 04 04:29 |
DaemonFC | it's not even worth stealing at that point | May 04 04:29 |
cubezzz | people do steal bikes though | May 04 04:30 |
DaemonFC | there's easier ways to make more money illegally, faster | May 04 04:30 |
DaemonFC | yes, could be some idiot not thinking out what he is doing | May 04 04:30 |
DaemonFC | I know | May 04 04:30 |
cubezzz | people break into computer stores a lot | May 04 04:31 |
DaemonFC | an entry-level model electric bike without the batteries is not the best heist you could make | May 04 04:31 |
DaemonFC | is what I'm saying | May 04 04:31 |
cubezzz | and government offices, colleges... | May 04 04:31 |
cubezzz | yeah you're probably safe | May 04 04:32 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, I think I might cancel my cable TV | May 04 04:33 |
DaemonFC | just go with Netflix | May 04 04:33 |
cubezzz | good idea | May 04 04:33 |
cubezzz | or even get an Antenna | May 04 04:33 |
DaemonFC | spend everything I was for my TV on something I want to watch | May 04 04:33 |
DaemonFC | no commercials even :D | May 04 04:33 |
cubezzz | how much does it cost? | May 04 04:33 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, I'm on the 3 DVDs out at a time + unlimited streaming plan | May 04 04:34 |
DaemonFC | $16 a month I think | May 04 04:34 |
cubezzz | my Antenna is $0 per month :) | May 04 04:34 |
DaemonFC | add blu ray to your account and it's another $4 | May 04 04:34 |

cubezzz | actually it's RTV now, they changed the name | May 04 04:39 |
*ThistleWeb has quit (Quit: Ex-Chat) | May 04 04:39 | |
DaemonFC | yeah, I'm going to either cancel my cable TV or move to the cheapest plan | May 04 04:39 |
DaemonFC | if I get rid of it, they up my internet price by $15 a month | May 04 04:39 |
DaemonFC | their cheapest TV package is $30 | May 04 04:40 |
cubezzz | I'm lucky, I have access to probably the best Antenna location in North America plus Im on a freenet for internet | May 04 04:40 |
cubezzz | so you save $15 | May 04 04:40 |
DaemonFC | yeah | May 04 04:41 |

cubezzz | every channel was therefore a CBC affiliate | May 04 07:04 |

MinceR | why? | May 04 07:38 |
cubezzz | it needs to sync down to 15 Khz | May 04 07:38 |
cubezzz | workbench will work, but most games won't | May 04 07:39 |
cubezzz | unless there's some LCD which can do that, which I doubt | May 04 07:40 |
MinceR | or you could just emulate that amiga 1200 :> | May 04 07:43 |
cubezzz | it's just not the same | May 04 07:44 |
MinceR | indeed -- one of them can drive an LCD, the other can't. :> | May 04 07:44 |
cubezzz | well I'm open to suggestions | May 04 07:45 |
cubezzz | I want a computer like the Amiga 1200 which is fully documented to the register level | May 04 07:45 |
cubezzz | anyways, there's a video board you can add to the Amiga 1200 which will make it work with a modern LCD | May 04 07:46 |
MinceR | you could use a CRT | May 04 07:46 |
MinceR | or look for an LCD that can do what you need | May 04 07:46 |
cubezzz | hmmm | May 04 07:47 |

DaemonFC | cubezzz, My best option for getting rid of cable TV is to just get their Limited Basic package I think | May 04 07:49 |
Ender2070 | DaemonFC - you paid money to see highlander 2 ? | May 04 07:49 |
DaemonFC | keeps my $15 "discount" on internet and gives me several local channels | May 04 07:50 |
DaemonFC | difference amounts to $4 for those channels considering that | May 04 07:50 |
MinceR | saying "shut the fuck up" means having a tongue like a sailor? i thought there was more to 'swearing like a sailor' than that... | May 04 07:50 |
Ender2070 | lol | May 04 07:50 |
DaemonFC | reminds me of the phone company making dry DSL lines available but rigging up "discounts" so you only save a few dollars vs. a basic phone line too | May 04 07:51 |
Ender2070 | i think thats awesome | May 04 07:51 |
Ender2070 | harper was pretty much like "kill your own babies" | May 04 07:51 |
MinceR | which they should | May 04 07:51 |
Ender2070 | yeah | May 04 07:51 |
cubezzz | you can do family planning without killing babies | May 04 07:52 |
Ender2070 | exactly | May 04 07:52 |
Ender2070 | its just some of these people really dont want the foreigners having kids at all so planned parenting will lean towards abortion in almost every case they come across | May 04 07:53 |
cubezzz | unless you're a first nations or intuit you're not a native :) | May 04 07:53 |
cubezzz | I'm an immigrant myself | May 04 07:54 |
Ender2070 | i was born here | May 04 07:54 |
Ender2070 | i was really putting it in terminology daemonfc might understand | May 04 07:54 |
Ender2070 | ill try to rephrase | May 04 07:54 |
DaemonFC | abortions are more profitable | May 04 07:55 |
DaemonFC | planned parenthood spends money if they just pass out contracetives | May 04 07:55 |
cubezzz | to me abortion is a last resort | May 04 07:55 |
DaemonFC | but if they can charge hundred of dollars per abortion, it becomes the front line option | May 04 07:55 |
MinceR | abortions cost money, too | May 04 07:55 |
Ender2070 | they cost the victim money instead though | May 04 07:56 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, That's the thing, they don't mention the free contraceptives | May 04 07:56 |
DaemonFC | they pep talk teenage girls into getting an abortion | May 04 07:56 |
Ender2070 | condoms cost planned parenthood money, arbortions make them money | May 04 07:56 |
DaemonFC | because someone is paying them to | May 04 07:56 |
DaemonFC | yes, exactly | May 04 07:56 |
MinceR | ic | May 04 07:57 |
Ender2070 | theres even quotas in places like china | May 04 07:57 |
oiaohm | Either way it costs. | May 04 07:57 |
oiaohm | Question is what. | May 04 07:57 |
Ender2070 | they want it to be canadian tax payers money | May 04 07:57 |
oiaohm | Not like having extra people costs nothing. | May 04 07:57 |
DaemonFC | I believe a few things here... | May 04 07:58 |
Ender2070 | theres only 32 million people in canada, with a land mass nearly the size of russia | May 04 07:58 |
DaemonFC | 1. Government should pay for condoms. | May 04 07:58 |
Ender2070 | i dont think we need to pay for someone elses abortions | May 04 07:58 |
DaemonFC | 2. Government should pay for birth control pills. | May 04 07:58 |
DaemonFC | 3. Government should pay for sterilizations. | May 04 07:58 |
DaemonFC | 4. Government should make YOU pay for any kids you have | May 04 07:58 |
DaemonFC | :) | May 04 07:58 |
cubezzz | there's still baby bonuses isn't there? | May 04 07:59 |
Ender2070 | actually I think they pay some people who get sterilized | May 04 07:59 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, Through the welfare system you mean? | May 04 07:59 |
DaemonFC | yeah, all kinds | May 04 07:59 |
DaemonFC | the government even sends their kids to federal kindergarten | May 04 07:59 |
Ender2070 | we still need the baby bonus | May 04 07:59 |
DaemonFC | calls it Head Start | May 04 07:59 |
Ender2070 | if canadian citizens can't keep up with the 1% population growth they have to let more foreigners in, fact | May 04 08:00 |
cubezzz | birth rate = death rate seems a good idea | May 04 08:01 |
DaemonFC | hmmmm | May 04 08:01 |
DaemonFC | yeah | May 04 08:01 |
Ender2070 | people are coming into this country for as little as 5 years and getting full pension | May 04 08:01 |
Ender2070 | retarded | May 04 08:01 |
DaemonFC | Canada is still playing the tough immigration rules that the United States should have | May 04 08:01 |
Ender2070 | we're not tough at all | May 04 08:01 |
DaemonFC | but it makes no sense for them with an aging population that's not growing | May 04 08:01 |
Ender2070 | you can come here and not even be a citizen, your entire life pretty much | May 04 08:02 |
Ender2070 | nobody will kick you out | May 04 08:02 |
Ender2070 | in the states you get 5 years, if they catch you | May 04 08:02 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, They're deporting all the US soldiers that are going up there to keep from being stop-lossed | May 04 08:02 |
DaemonFC | explain that | May 04 08:02 |
cubezzz | does that mean if they don't kick you out after 5 years you can stay in the US? | May 04 08:02 |
Ender2070 | not all | May 04 08:02 |
Ender2070 | cubezzz - no | May 04 08:02 |
Ender2070 | cubezzz - they have to catch you i think | May 04 08:03 |
Ender2070 | might be a different number too | May 04 08:03 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, What I mean is that the US government turns a blind eye | May 04 08:03 |
DaemonFC | and the companies that hire illegals don't want a way for them to become citizens | May 04 08:03 |
cubezzz | I thought there was some sort of amnesty after a while | May 04 08:03 |
DaemonFC | it's like a Don't Ask Don't Tell for illegal immigration and employment | May 04 08:03 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, No | May 04 08:04 |
Ender2070 | i think most would get married | May 04 08:04 |
DaemonFC | a friend of mine had to fight them for over 2 years | May 04 08:04 |
DaemonFC | and she has been in the US for 26 years now | May 04 08:04 |
DaemonFC | :) | May 04 08:04 |
DaemonFC | since just after birth | May 04 08:04 |
Ender2070 | the only thing tougher here is employment | May 04 08:05 |
Ender2070 | for non-citizens | May 04 08:05 |
DaemonFC | I mentioned in court that for all anyone could prove, she was Puerto Rican and a US citizen by birth anyway | May 04 08:05 |
DaemonFC | :D | May 04 08:05 |
DaemonFC | they eventually ruled that she could stay | May 04 08:05 |
Ender2070 | theres no such thing as an illegal immigrant here | May 04 08:06 |
cubezzz | what do they call it then? :) | May 04 08:06 |
Ender2070 | its not illegal | May 04 08:06 |
cubezzz | I can get an amiga monitor for $100 | May 04 08:07 |
cubezzz | only problem will be shipping it | May 04 08:07 |
DaemonFC | if Canada had the proposed US system I would say "I have no skills, I don't plan to work, my family plans to abuse your welfare and healthcare system...when can we come in?" | May 04 08:07 |
Ender2070 | then we would put you through college too | May 04 08:07 |
cubezzz | don't forget mentally ill and alocoholic too :) | May 04 08:08 |
DaemonFC | sweet | May 04 08:08 |
Ender2070 | any 2 year program with good career prospects | May 04 08:08 |
cubezzz | $100 for the monitor plus $100 for shipping :-/ | May 04 08:10 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, I did deduct the cost it took to go through that CNA program from my taxes that year | May 04 08:10 |
DaemonFC | here, the government really only pays for college for minorities | May 04 08:10 |
Ender2070 | oh dude | May 04 08:10 |
DaemonFC | if you're white, you could get lucky and get a grant approved | May 04 08:10 |
DaemonFC | but it's not as likely | May 04 08:10 |
cubezzz | ok, it's back to the indivision 1200 then | May 04 08:10 |
Ender2070 | its that racist against white people | May 04 08:10 |
DaemonFC | racial quotas | May 04 08:11 |
Ender2070 | sounds racist | May 04 08:11 |
DaemonFC | they have to have half the grants going to minorities that make up less than 15% of the population | May 04 08:11 |
DaemonFC | it's ridiculous | May 04 08:11 |
Ender2070 | yeah it is | May 04 08:12 |
Ender2070 | nobody condems pro-amnesty groups | May 04 08:14 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, I'm all for equality, I really am | May 04 08:15 |
DaemonFC | but these programs are jsut reverse discrimination against white people | May 04 08:15 |
Ender2070 | i agree with you | May 04 08:15 |
DaemonFC | why not have a pool where people put in their names and SAT scores and go from there? | May 04 08:16 |
DaemonFC | call it a merit system | May 04 08:16 |
Ender2070 | not even names | May 04 08:16 |
Ender2070 | use nicknames for anon. | May 04 08:16 |
DaemonFC | if some black dude gets a higher SAT than me and that's why he gets a grant and I don't, I'm OK | May 04 08:16 |
Ender2070 | that way they cant say "this guy sounds like a black guy" | May 04 08:16 |
DaemonFC | at least it was fair | May 04 08:16 |

pawel_123 | he calls the GPL a communist license in Phoronix forum | May 04 10:28 |
MinceR | sure, it will gain the attention of m$ and crApple -- more code for them to rip off | May 04 10:28 |
pawel_123 | exactly | May 04 10:29 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, no | May 04 10:29 |
MinceR | GNU/Linux already has the attention of other businesses | May 04 10:29 |
MinceR | and so does free software | May 04 10:29 |
cubezzz | actually the live cd ran better than linux hosted | May 04 10:29 |
pawel_123 | I wonder why such thing appeared at Phoronix? :) | May 04 10:29 |
cubezzz | but couldn't get the network stuff going | May 04 10:29 |
MinceR | because of IDG, i presume | May 04 10:29 |
pawel_123 | the guy hates fsf too | May 04 10:29 |
MinceR | they also had a rather trolling article on benchmarking ubuntu vs vista7 | May 04 10:29 |
pawel_123 | yes | May 04 10:29 |
MinceR | starting full of FUD and then getting to inconclusive results | May 04 10:30 |
pawel_123 | they just measured graphic drivers performance | May 04 10:30 |
oiaohm | MinceR: Laugh at them. | May 04 10:30 |
cubezzz | I should mention AROS on it's own didn't crash | May 04 10:30 |
pawel_123 | but those drivers are different | May 04 10:30 |
MinceR | i think i'll remove them from my feed list | May 04 10:30 |
MinceR | i'm going to switch news sources anyway | May 04 10:30 |
oiaohm | Don't they get it head to head benchmarking is really the start of the Linux move on desktop. | May 04 10:30 |
MinceR | since /. is a m$/crApple fanboy base now and index.hu is openly advertising m$ | May 04 10:30 |
oiaohm | Up until now benchmarks directly comparing correctly has not been done. | May 04 10:30 |
oiaohm | And will force Linux quality to match or better windows. | May 04 10:30 |
pawel_123 | MinceR: I did the same, I stoped at Phoronix long time ago, but it's time to switch probably | May 04 10:31 |
schestowitz | pawel_123: why not just ignore him? | May 04 10:31 |
MinceR | (index.hu is advertising IE8 on every page they have) | May 04 10:31 |
schestowitz | There are always people like that, nothing particularly new | May 04 10:31 |
pawel_123 | schestowitz: this is what I'm thinking about ;) | May 04 10:31 |
schestowitz | I didn't notice it | May 04 10:31 |
MinceR | apparently what i predicted about phoronix is happening now | May 04 10:31 |
schestowitz | and I read Linux news VERY exhaustively | May 04 10:31 |
oiaohm | phoronix has been useful to main kernel development since they started benchmarking | May 04 10:31 |
MinceR | (perhaps it's too soon to say, though) | May 04 10:31 |
oiaohm | Ie lot of regressions have been detected before they are too code deep. | May 04 10:32 |
cubezzz | Linux really is the best, most portable OS | May 04 10:32 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: except some fud spreaded | May 04 10:32 |
MinceR | is reddit a good source of tech news and international news? | May 04 10:32 |
oiaohm | Price pawel_123 | May 04 10:32 |
cubezzz | umm | May 04 10:32 |
schestowitz | cubezzz: ping | May 04 10:32 |
oiaohm | Everything has its price. pawel_123 | May 04 10:32 |
oiaohm | Doing benchmarks always risk it used against you. | May 04 10:32 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: there were intendet changes in kernel, but Phoronix claims those were regressions ;) | May 04 10:32 |
schestowitz | cubezzz: have you got IRC logs for the 29th and 30th that you can e-majl me? | May 04 10:32 |
schestowitz | For this channel I mean | May 04 10:32 |
cubezzz | probably do | May 04 10:32 |
schestowitz | Cool! | May 04 10:32 |
cubezzz | let me check though | May 04 10:33 |
oiaohm | pawel_123: Some were required fixes with high costs. Yes they were bugs at those regression points that did get fixed in time. Ie locking. | May 04 10:33 |
cubezzz | Ender2070, all the amiga vids on youtube have guys with British accents too :) | May 04 10:33 |
cubezzz | North America is like dozerland | May 04 10:33 |
schestowitz | AUstralia and UK too | May 04 10:34 |
cubezzz | 29 megs, woof :) | May 04 10:34 |
schestowitz | If it speaks English, then it speaks with Ballmer in a native lang | May 04 10:34 |
cubezzz | yes, that is true | May 04 10:34 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: there are always some bugs :), but imagine, Phoronix tested many kernels some time ago, but there were different mount options used | May 04 10:34 |
schestowitz | cubezzz: can you crop 29/4 - 30/4 out and mail it to r at schestowitz com please? | May 04 10:35 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: cause defaults mount options changed :) | May 04 10:35 |
cubezzz | schestowitz, OK | May 04 10:35 |
schestowitz | I'd be grateful, we keep these logs for people who read them without joining IRC (there are quite a lot) | May 04 10:35 |
cubezzz | my log goes back to Jan 30th | May 04 10:35 |
cubezzz | 2010 | May 04 10:35 |
schestowitz | In 2009 we one made a log of 1.5 MB in one day | May 04 10:36 |
schestowitz | *once | May 04 10:36 |
cubezzz | ok, looks like I do have apr 29 | May 04 10:36 |
schestowitz | and 30th... I was offline installing Linux, so I missed half a day | May 04 10:37 |
cubezzz | umm you only want 29th and 30th right? | May 04 10:37 |
schestowitz | Yes, please :-) | May 04 10:37 |
*jono (~jono@ubuntu/member/jono) has joined #boycottnovell | May 04 10:37 | |
cubezzz | d1G or something | May 04 10:37 |
cubezzz | trying to remember my vim commands | May 04 10:37 |
oiaohm | And those mount options changes had far higher price then they should have as well pawel_123 | May 04 10:37 |
cubezzz | I backed it up first :) | May 04 10:38 |
oiaohm | Over time the price of those mount options has reduced in line with Block device management improvements pawel_123 | May 04 10:38 |
cubezzz | wow, we talk a lot | May 04 10:39 |
cubezzz | and there's a lot of me in there :) | May 04 10:39 |
schestowitz | Over 100MB in my logs :-) | May 04 10:39 |
oiaohm | Also be aware that the developer of that filesystem changed the pattern of mount options to hide the fact of the regression as well before he was forced to change to back for stablity. pawel_123 | May 04 10:39 |
cubezzz | ok, what's the email address? | May 04 10:40 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: it's something messed up :) devs chose safer mount options for default thus benchmark results were lower | May 04 10:40 |
schestowitz | r at schestowitz com | May 04 10:40 |
schestowitz | thanks! | May 04 10:40 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: if you test kernels they should use exactly the same options | May 04 10:40 |
oiaohm | Developer first chose unsafe ones. Due to the speed effects. | May 04 10:41 |
oiaohm | So hiding regression pawel_123 | May 04 10:41 |
oiaohm | It aways comes back and bites at some point. | May 04 10:41 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: how safer otpions which lowered benchmar results hid regressions? | May 04 10:41 |
cubezzz | sending.... | May 04 10:41 |
oiaohm | No pawel_123 the unsafe options had never been there in ext2 and I think ext3 by default. Developer due to speed hit turned them off on ext4 so giving speed gain | May 04 10:42 |
oiaohm | So making ext4 unsafe. pawel_123 | May 04 10:43 |
cubezzz | two days was 200K :) | May 04 10:43 |
oiaohm | At some point that has to be corrected. pawel_123 | May 04 10:43 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: ok :) | May 04 10:43 |
cubezzz | so we blabber about 100K per day | May 04 10:43 |
oiaohm | There was a regression in those options. pawel_123 | May 04 10:43 |
oiaohm | The developer hid. The issue. So when phoronix said it was a regression it was. Worst kind developer hidden regression. | May 04 10:44 |
cubezzz | vim is awesome but I can't remember all the commands | May 04 10:44 |
oiaohm | Benchmarking of kernel with default options should always basically stay thing same or get faster unless something was hidden or done wrong. pawel_123 | May 04 10:45 |
MinceR | you don't have to remember all the commands | May 04 10:45 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: you're missing the point. Phoronix benchmarked kernel with different options used, so this is not meaningfull. I bet they didn't even know defaults changed | May 04 10:45 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: not true | May 04 10:45 |
oiaohm | They did pawel_123. | May 04 10:45 |
oiaohm | What reason would you have for a speed hit other than fixing a error. pawel_123 | May 04 10:46 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: Ext4 is safer then ntfs, but if you want it to be faster you've got to use different mount options | May 04 10:46 |
oiaohm | Now yes pawel_123 | May 04 10:46 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: to make it better for specified market | May 04 10:46 |
oiaohm | Early Ext4 with wrong options was faster and less safe than ntfs | May 04 10:47 |
cubezzz | btw does anyone know the name of the mouse driver in 2.4? | May 04 10:47 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: where data must be flushed imediatly to disk, for desktop you rather do not need this | May 04 10:47 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: possibly | May 04 10:47 |
oiaohm | But unsafe path should not be default ever. | May 04 10:47 |
oiaohm | Person should have to change for unsafe. | May 04 10:47 |
cubezzz | ok, I'll just read the docs :) | May 04 10:48 |
oiaohm | Note the Ext4 current options do not force imediat flush to disk. But they do reduce file nuking. Ie if a file was just part written turning it into a zero size file. pawel_123 | May 04 10:49 |
schestowitz | cubezzz: thanks! | May 04 10:49 |
cubezzz | np | May 04 10:49 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: "But unsafe path should not be default ever." that's for sure :) | May 04 10:50 |
oiaohm | File nuking provides means of skipping over journalling and other tracking of what you are doing in the filesystem. Ie faster. pawel_123 | May 04 10:50 |
oiaohm | So ext4 was benchmarking way faster than it ever should have. | May 04 10:50 |
cubezzz | I think I'll stick with ext2 and ext3 :) | May 04 10:50 |
cubezzz | tried and true | May 04 10:51 |
oiaohm | On defaults. And of course when the problems came home to roust the defaults had to be changed back to like ext3 | May 04 10:51 |
oiaohm | And then the fact that journalling on ext4 was running like a snail came to light. pawel_123 | May 04 10:51 |
oiaohm | Ie slower than ext3 on the same size filesystem. | May 04 10:52 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: why it's that? | May 04 10:52 |
oiaohm | The code had not be fully redone to cope with ext4 supporting larger filesystems. | May 04 10:53 |
oiaohm | Instead just hacked up so it would work. pawel_123 | May 04 10:53 |
oiaohm | Ie performance work was badly lacking. | May 04 10:53 |
oiaohm | Yes the developer had hid where he had not been working and that it was in a bad state by changing defaults. | May 04 10:53 |
oiaohm | Lot of Linux developers were up in arms at the change in defaults at the time as well. | May 04 10:54 |
oiaohm | Ie change to the unsafe. | May 04 10:54 |
oiaohm | So the case you have for fud from phoronix over filesystems is badly wrong pawel_123 | May 04 10:55 |
oiaohm | Ok some wine developers would say the phoronix over sells open source video card drivers. | May 04 10:55 |
oiaohm | Ok most of the wine developers says phoronix over sells open source video card drivers. | May 04 10:56 |
oiaohm | Note the ext4 defaults change to unstable only go threw due to ext 4 being classed as unstable when they were changed. Ie the regression was not changing them back before production status. | May 04 10:58 |
oiaohm | And then finding out that there were more regressions. | May 04 10:59 |

pawel_123 | oiaohm: ok, I've got your point :) | May 04 11:12 |
oiaohm | Developers need watch dogs just as much as anyone else. pawel_123 benchmarking is one of those watch dogs. | May 04 11:12 |
*MinceR hates dogs | May 04 11:13 | |
oiaohm | I quite like them. Thinking I work with quite a few. MinceR | May 04 11:14 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: if some watch dogs are meaningull it's another case | May 04 11:15 |
oiaohm | The simplest thing is to blame a benchmark for finding a issue. pawel_123 The question should always be why was the issue thier in the first place. | May 04 11:16 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: the question is if there is an issue | May 04 11:18 |
pawel_123 | you've got only one mode for ntfs | May 04 11:18 |
pawel_123 | and at least three for ext4 | May 04 11:18 |
pawel_123 | then how would you know which is a correct one for desktop? | May 04 11:19 |
pawel_123 | which is an equivalent of ntfs mode etc? | May 04 11:19 |
oiaohm | ntfs has 12 modes infact. pawel_123 | May 04 11:19 |
oiaohm | Only 1 most people know. | May 04 11:19 |
oiaohm | journalling on is ntfs. | May 04 11:20 |
oiaohm | default. | May 04 11:20 |
oiaohm | It is possiable to run ntfs without journalling and without caching and with out permissions. | May 04 11:20 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: only this one which is known should be taken into account in this case | May 04 11:20 |
oiaohm | Under windows what does run a lot faster but god darn unsafe. | May 04 11:20 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[davidgerard] Seeking LessWrongers to descend on this article in disgust and make it better http://rationalwiki.com/wiki/LessWrong | May 04 11:21 | |
TechrightsBot | Title: LessWrong - RationalWiki .::. Size~: 20.47 KB | May 04 11:21 |
oiaohm | Ie the one you know is the maker default. pawel_123 | May 04 11:21 |
oiaohm | So the default of the Linux kernel should match up. Ie safe in most cases. | May 04 11:22 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: yep | May 04 11:22 |
oiaohm | Main reason to turn permissions and cache and journalling is running windows doing real time work. | May 04 11:22 |
oiaohm | Catch was ext4 was not safe in most cases before the correction to defaults that caused a speed cost. pawel_123 | May 04 11:23 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: then maybe that's why there were no so safe options as defaults for ext4 before? | May 04 11:23 |
oiaohm | Developer pushed it threw claiming his work would remove the need for the safe options. pawel_123 | May 04 11:24 |
oiaohm | Ie was not the case. | May 04 11:24 |
oiaohm | So the developer did not work on fixing up the long term known safe methods. So leading to the massive speed hit. | May 04 11:24 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: no safe ext 4 options maybe matched default ntfs options | May 04 11:24 |
oiaohm | There are. pawel_123 | May 04 11:24 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: so those options are enough for desktops | May 04 11:25 |
oiaohm | ext4 with journalling enabled does line up quite well to ntfs in stablity. | May 04 11:25 |
oiaohm | But of course you pay speed for it. | May 04 11:25 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: and phoronix benchamarking unsafe options against safe ones wasn't fair claiming there's some regression | May 04 11:25 |
pawel_123 | it's an expected behaviour | May 04 11:26 |
oiaohm | Catch is that the defaults were wrong. And a person may have been depending on that performance it was a regression. | May 04 11:26 |
oiaohm | Wine makes functions work that never did before applications die those applications are classed as regressions in support. | May 04 11:28 |
oiaohm | Yes making functions work can make applications use other functions that don't work that when the other functions did not work they would never have touched. | May 04 11:28 |
oiaohm | Yes the evil side of regressions. | May 04 11:28 |
oiaohm | Just because its expected behaviour does not mean its not a regression. | May 04 11:29 |
oiaohm | If I could claim that I could delete about 80 percent of wine regression reports. pawel_123 | May 04 11:29 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: why defaults were wrong while probably exactly the same defaults are still in ntfs? | May 04 11:30 |
oiaohm | No ext4 defaults that were wrong were way worse than ntfs defaults. | May 04 11:30 |
pawel_123 | oiaohm: then it's a different thing | May 04 11:31 |
oiaohm | Ie no journal no safe guards. Basically pray that power does not drop out. | May 04 11:31 |
oiaohm | Or kernel lock up for some reason. | May 04 11:31 |
oiaohm | Ext4 was running down right dangerous until the defualts were corrected. pawel_123 | May 04 11:31 |
pawel_123 | ok | May 04 11:32 |
oiaohm | Basically is a screw up of screwup. | May 04 11:32 |
oiaohm | Never should happen. Nicest thing phoronix could say was that it was a regression and leave it at that. | May 04 11:33 |
oiaohm | To say the truth the developer has gone past safe limits and provided way more performance than what ever should have been there. | May 04 11:33 |

Chips_B_Malroy | Hi all, I was going post this comment then decided to post it here in irc instead: | May 04 18:40 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Most of us do disdain software patents. They only help the monopolies. They do not promote science or innovation. But there is a worse form of software patents, its software patents on codecs. This should never have been allowed in any reasonable world. Software patents on multimedia codecs are basically a patent on sight and sound, two inalienable senses of the human experience. So it is a tax and a form of c | May 04 18:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Beyond that the monopolies (MS and Apple) want to use software patents as a way to block free operating systems ,to control the web, and to profit by taxing those who have to use these multimedia video and sound software patents. | May 04 18:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Multimedia software patents are completely against the idea of standards, or even standards that can be freely used on the web. We must try to educate those in power to reject software patents on video and audio codecs and to get free standards on these codecs for a free web. Not a web that will be controlled and taxed further by unnecessary Microsoft and Apple lockin. | May 04 18:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | As far as IBM and Google with their support of software patents. While we would be better off without the patents, in the meantime, Google has to play the patent game in some countries, as that is the law of the land in the USA. To be able to sue those who come against you, is a weapon that we should not say to Google; "do not sue MS or Apple." In fact, I am all for Google to go after both companies, often in a | May 04 18:42 |

Chips_B_Malroy | It is not enough to just have Theora or the new free Google codec. All of these video and audio software codecs should be free if used on the web, as the web should be free. Free standards for a free web, should be the call. | May 04 18:47 |

_Ender_ | instead of helping the poor become middle class, he just killed them off, it costs the government less money | May 04 20:17 |
MinceR | didn't the official propaganda say that this dictatorship was magically supposed to lead to anarcho-capitalism? | May 04 20:18 |
_Ender_ | he = stalin | May 04 20:18 |
MinceR | (which is obviously absurd) | May 04 20:18 |
_Ender_ | anarcho-capitalism is absurd | May 04 20:18 |
_Ender_ | capitalism requires a government for regulation | May 04 20:18 |
_Ender_ | if you want anarchy, take anarchy | May 04 20:18 |
MinceR | oops | May 04 20:19 |
MinceR | i wanted to say anarcho-communism | May 04 20:19 |
_Ender_ | in a anarcho-capitalist USA, microsoft wouldn't have had any lawsuits against it | May 04 20:19 |
MinceR | but all these flavors of anarchism differ in what they expect people to do on their own | May 04 20:19 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] @omar_s_hafez I was just implying, no use lambasting good people for their understanding of the universe; behaviour is separate from dogma | May 04 20:19 | |
_Ender_ | ohhh anarcho-communism | May 04 20:19 |
MinceR | _Ender_: in an anarcho-capitalist usa, m$ would have ended up in a civil war | May 04 20:20 |
MinceR | if it was even allowed to exist in the first place | May 04 20:20 |
_Ender_ | nah i think they would be worse right now | May 04 20:20 |
_Ender_ | no regulation to keep them in line | May 04 20:20 |
_Ender_ | no laws to have to obey other than consumer demand | May 04 20:20 |
_Ender_ | and they can make the consumer demand stuff | May 04 20:21 |
MinceR | no regulation to keep wronged people from fixing the situation, either | May 04 20:21 |
_Ender_ | yup | May 04 20:21 |
MinceR | so it isn't so bad | May 04 20:21 |
MinceR | but on the previous topic, expecting a dictatorship to give up power on its own is absurd | May 04 20:21 |
_Ender_ | yeah | May 04 20:22 |
_Ender_ | governments dont get smaller | May 04 20:22 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, They will under two circumstances | May 04 20:22 |

DaemonFC | 1. When there isno way to keep the government going financially. | May 04 20:22 |
DaemonFC | 2. Peasant revolt, perhaps brought by #1 | May 04 20:22 |
DaemonFC | _Ender_, He said willingly | May 04 20:22 |
_Ender_ | yeah | May 04 20:23 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: that's not on its own and not something that can be expected to happen | May 04 20:23 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, a centrally planned economy always results in mass poverty | May 04 20:23 |
MinceR | there's no willingness in those cases | May 04 20:23 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: i know | May 04 20:23 |
DaemonFC | how long that goes on is up to the people | May 04 20:23 |
_Ender_ | and that depends on how good your propaganda is | May 04 20:24 |
DaemonFC | poverty will exist as long as money exists, and as long as resources are in short supply in respect to need | May 04 20:24 |
DaemonFC | Communism doesn't fix this, it just dictates who gets what according to what someone else thinks they need | May 04 20:25 |
DaemonFC | it ends up being an engine for poverty that free market capitalism could never match | May 04 20:25 |
_Ender_ | i agree | May 04 20:25 |
_Ender_ | plus with communism, big corps still exist | May 04 20:25 |
DaemonFC | yes they do | May 04 20:26 |
_Ender_ | they often have deals with the governments | May 04 20:26 |
DaemonFC | the USSR had government contractors even | May 04 20:26 |

_Ender_ | you know what the nazi party was also called? | May 04 20:28 |
DaemonFC | healthcare is one of the few things that should be socialized, and by that I mean they should have expanded Medicare to cover everyone and charge sliding scale premiums | May 04 20:28 |
