cubezzz | 2.2.26 :) | Jun 20 08:47 |
cubezzz | dual boot with freedos, works surprisingly well | Jun 20 08:47 |
cubezzz | 16 megs of ram is a lot | Jun 20 08:47 |
cubezzz | when I first started with Commodore PET we had 8K of ram | Jun 20 08:48 |
cubezzz | hard to imagine now | Jun 20 08:48 |
cubezzz | you can't run any modern linux without 256 megs of ram at least | Jun 20 08:50 |
cubezzz | believe me, I tried it, it was awful | Jun 20 08:51 |
*sebsebseb has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) | Jun 20 08:51 | |
cubezzz | however, if you try it with older Linux, even 16 megs of ram isn't too bad | Jun 20 08:51 |
amarsh04 | I've tried a few times with 192 MiB of RAM in old machines | Jun 20 08:56 |
amarsh04 | tinycore linux might be worth trying in older machines | Jun 20 08:57 |
cubezzz | tried it but... | Jun 20 08:57 |
cubezzz | basic linux is more my cup of tea | Jun 20 08:57 |
amarsh04 | ah ok... | Jun 20 08:58 |
amarsh04 | I ran UnixWare 1.0 in 16 MiB - 32 MiB was much better | Jun 20 08:58 |
amarsh04 | 486DX-33 | Jun 20 08:59 |
cubezzz | don't think this board would even take 32 megs | Jun 20 08:59 |
cubezzz | unfortunately | Jun 20 08:59 |
cubezzz | basic linux is probably the best for 386/486 class machines | Jun 20 09:02 |
cubezzz | tinycore is still 2.6 | Jun 20 09:04 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Having a look at a new Twitter client. | Jun 20 09:04 | |
amarsh04 | My old machine is close to the minimum for running KDE (3.5.10) - PII-266 / 384 MiB RAM | Jun 20 09:05 |
cubezzz | amarsh04, I can't even run tinycore: | Jun 20 09:05 |
cubezzz | "An absolute minimum of RAM is 48mb. TC won't boot with anything less, no matter how many terabytes of swap you have. | Jun 20 09:05 |
cubezzz | Microcore runs with 36mb of ram. | Jun 20 09:05 |
cubezzz | The minimum cpu is i486DX (486 with a math processor). | Jun 20 09:05 |
cubezzz | " | Jun 20 09:05 |
cubezzz | I can't even run _microcore_ :) | Jun 20 09:05 |
amarsh04 | ah right, I have run Debian on a cyrix (486 equivalent) and 48 MiB of RAM | Jun 20 09:05 |
cubezzz | people just don't know _old_ :) | Jun 20 09:06 |
cubezzz | to me, old is PDP-11 | Jun 20 09:06 |
amarsh04 | I'm not sure if any current linux can run on a 386 without math coprocessor | Jun 20 09:07 |
amarsh04 | I started with VAX so PDP-11 is pre-historic for me | Jun 20 09:07 |
cubezzz | tessier told me original Unix didn't even use an MMU | Jun 20 09:07 |
cubezzz | so the idea that Linux _must_ have a math coprocessor is silly | Jun 20 09:08 |
cubezzz | but you're probably right | Jun 20 09:08 |
amarsh04 | no it didn't, one of the old AT&T folk who sometimes posted in the comp.unix.unixware[.misc] had a SVR3.2 still running on a 286 | Jun 20 09:08 |
cubezzz | the distro maintainers don't care about old | Jun 20 09:08 |
amarsh04 | not Linux in general, just x86 linux requiring math coprocessor | Jun 20 09:09 |
cubezzz | ummm | Jun 20 09:09 |
cubezzz | no :) | Jun 20 09:10 |
cubezzz | there's no reason it must have a coprocessor | Jun 20 09:10 |
amarsh04 | does gcc for x86 require a coprocessor? | Jun 20 09:10 |
cubezzz | no | Jun 20 09:10 |
cubezzz | you know how I know? | Jun 20 09:10 |
amarsh04 | how? | Jun 20 09:10 |

DaemonFC | heh | Jun 20 23:23 |
DaemonFC | internally, a state may partition itself however it sees fit, compliant to it's own constitution | Jun 20 23:24 |
DaemonFC | so the Feds couldn't have stopped that | Jun 20 23:24 |

DaemonFC | Nye County was pissed because the state government was trying to partition it into two counties to keep the flow of Federal grants going to the state and not the local county government | Jun 20 23:25 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz: Fortunately enough, county governments have almost no real power anymore | Jun 20 23:26 |
DaemonFC | that's a good thing because most county governments are controlled either by all far-leftists or all far right wingers | Jun 20 23:26 |
DaemonFC | and if they had any real power like they used to, it would almost be like driving into another state every 20 miles or so | Jun 20 23:27 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 20 23:27 |
DaemonFC | the problem is that it's another level of bureaucracy and hence, another opportunity for fraud and waste and nepotism | Jun 20 23:27 |
DaemonFC | so, that has been one reason I've gone along with the Indiana state-level Republicans on every ballot initiative to castrate local government bit by bit | Jun 20 23:28 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 20 23:28 |
DaemonFC | the less local government, the better, since all it has been doing is acting as another level of waste anyway | Jun 20 23:29 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: Did I mention the insane local government hierarchy in Indiana? | Jun 20 23:29 |

DaemonFC | goes state>county>city/town>township | Jun 20 23:30 |
DaemonFC | the township level is left over from the 1800s | Jun 20 23:30 |
DaemonFC | it's gotten to where a town of 20,000 people might actually be 7 or 8 townships | Jun 20 23:30 |
DaemonFC | complete with their own bureaucrats | Jun 20 23:30 |
DaemonFC | so over the last several years, there have been ballot initiatives to alter this layout, fire the township bureaucrats, and transfer all their authority up to the city or county itself | Jun 20 23:31 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jun 20 23:31 |
DaemonFC | why they're doing it office by office baffles me, but I support it every time another office comes up to be axed | Jun 20 23:32 |
DaemonFC | the last victory was to get rid of all the Township tax assessors | Jun 20 23:32 |
DaemonFC | over 1,000 of them | Jun 20 23:32 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 20 23:32 |
DaemonFC | who turned around, sued the state, and more or less lost | Jun 20 23:32 |
DaemonFC | the ruling says they get their salary for the remainder of the elected term, but that the office is still stricken | Jun 20 23:33 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 20 23:33 |
schestowitz | This is a little morbid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhWNywhVetk | Jun 20 23:33 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz: I find it amusing that we still have local government layout that made sense about 200 years ago | Jun 20 23:33 |
DaemonFC | and that we're just now getting rid of it, in pieces | Jun 20 23:34 |
*malacoda has quit (Read error: Operation timed out) | Jun 20 23:34 | |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: The axing of the Township assessor was one point of a multi-step plan to cut property taxes across the board | Jun 20 23:34 |
DaemonFC | their salary that is no longer paid helped get the tax itself down | Jun 20 23:35 |
DaemonFC | so now instead of 2% of the assessed value of the property (which may already be double what it would retail for), we now pay 1% | Jun 20 23:35 |
DaemonFC | yay (kind of) | Jun 20 23:36 |
DaemonFC | but to some extent, it's also a pea and shell game | Jun 20 23:36 |
MinceR | gn | Jun 20 23:36 |
DaemonFC | Updike gets most of that back by passing local tax increases | Jun 20 23:36 |
DaemonFC | further vilifying himself | Jun 20 23:36 |
DaemonFC | makes people go to him asking why the hell they're being asked to pay for all the shit we don't need to run the city with | Jun 20 23:37 |
DaemonFC | which is a good thing | Jun 20 23:37 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: That's why there were no Christmas lights last year | Jun 20 23:37 |
DaemonFC | Updike turned around and vilified the state government for not taxing us and then giving him some of the money back to pin up Christmas lights | Jun 20 23:38 |
DaemonFC | nobody bought it | Jun 20 23:38 |
DaemonFC | but we did save "$50,000" by not stapling up our shrine to White Jesus | Jun 20 23:38 |
DaemonFC | :D | Jun 20 23:38 |
DaemonFC | so in a very perverse way, the Republicans defeated themselves and White Jesus | Jun 20 23:39 |
DaemonFC | and I was amused | Jun 20 23:39 |
DaemonFC | because taxing the locals directly tends to make people understand that this shit isn't free | Jun 20 23:39 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 20 23:39 |
DaemonFC | it really shows you what level the teabaggers are operating on, schestowitz | Jun 20 23:40 |
DaemonFC | if the state takes it and funds the local White Jesus shrine, nobody asks who paid for it | Jun 20 23:41 |
DaemonFC | if Updike says the White Jesus shrine can't go up unless local taxes go up $50,000, people axe the White Jesus shrine | Jun 20 23:41 |
DaemonFC | of course the shrine to White Jesus is pretty political too | Jun 20 23:42 |
MinceR | wild jesus appeared! | Jun 20 23:42 |
DaemonFC | before you know it, they're letting the 4-5 black people in town put up Kwanzaa displays | Jun 20 23:42 |
DaemonFC | and then there's a "God doesn't exist you fucks!" put up by the state's atheists | Jun 20 23:42 |
DaemonFC | and the message gets very confusing | Jun 20 23:43 |
DaemonFC | now White Jesus, Black Jesus, and No Jesus exist simultaneously | Jun 20 23:43 |
DaemonFC | apparentlky | Jun 20 23:43 |
DaemonFC | then before you know it, the one Jewish family in town complains and there's a Menorah | Jun 20 23:44 |
*malacoda (~malacoda@cpe-24-243-4-28.satx.res.rr.com) has joined #boycottnovell | Jun 20 23:45 | |
DaemonFC | MinceR: White Jesus, Black Jesus, No Jesus, and "Jesus was just this really nice guy, but not God's son" wish you Happy generic Holidays | Jun 20 23:45 |
DaemonFC | $105.14 for my AT&T bill | Jun 20 23:46 |
DaemonFC | hmmm | Jun 20 23:46 |
DaemonFC | then it redirects me between AT&T, SBC, Ameritech, and Bellsouth sites | Jun 20 23:47 |
DaemonFC | because the phone company still has a 20 year old identity crisis | Jun 20 23:47 |
DaemonFC | then Opera panics at all the redirects and warns me that I'm under attack | Jun 20 23:47 |
DaemonFC | I wonder if there is an IEtab for Opera | Jun 20 23:49 |
DaemonFC | the fascists at the phone cartel think it's still 1999 | Jun 20 23:49 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Or are they communists? | Jun 20 23:50 |
DaemonFC | propping up a government approved monopoly | Jun 20 23:50 |
DaemonFC | hmmm | Jun 20 23:50 |
DaemonFC | they managed to slip in a $10 fee for throwing some crap channels overboard | Jun 20 23:51 |
*DaemonFC beats MinceR over the head with Oxygen | Jun 20 23:51 | |
*MinceR isn't there to hit | Jun 20 23:52 | |
DaemonFC | I'm using Firefox only due to the fact that it supports a lot of nonstandard IE crap that Opera doesn't | Jun 20 23:53 |
DaemonFC | Firefox could rip that out, but they enjoy the marketshare given to them by supporting the nonstandard IE crap | Jun 20 23:53 |
DaemonFC | so they won't | Jun 20 23:54 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: They "recommend" that I change from paying with debit to electronic checking account payments | Jun 20 23:56 |
DaemonFC | but offer me no cost savings by doing so and would manage to skirt around the fraud protections that Visa offers me | Jun 20 23:57 |
DaemonFC | nice | Jun 20 23:57 |
DaemonFC | these people truly are evil | Jun 20 23:57 |
DaemonFC | at least my car insurance company offers me a $4 a month bill credit for using an e-check instead | Jun 20 23:57 |
DaemonFC | the phone company just pockets it and opens you up to fraud | Jun 20 23:58 |
DaemonFC | yay | Jun 20 23:58 |
