| DaemonFC | nice | Jul 29 02:03 |
| DaemonFC | hmmm | Jul 29 02:06 |
| DaemonFC | OpenSuse has KDE 4.5 RC3 in Factory | Jul 29 02:06 |
| DaemonFC | that might make as much sense as kmix-pulse, provided that KDE 4.5 is sufficiently stable | Jul 29 02:06 |
| neighborlee | and we care why ;) | Jul 29 02:08 |
| DaemonFC | just thinking out loud | Jul 29 02:08 |
| neighborlee | opensuse<>novel,,no trust | Jul 29 02:08 |
| neighborlee | fair enough | Jul 29 02:08 |
| neighborlee | I did enjoy opensuse on some levels at one point though | Jul 29 02:08 |
| neighborlee | their one click is nice, no idea how good it is | Jul 29 02:09 |
| DaemonFC | It looks like they're keeping up to pace lately | Jul 29 02:09 |
| DaemonFC | with various upstreams | Jul 29 02:09 |
| neighborlee | good sign | Jul 29 02:09 |
| DaemonFC | I tried using KDE factory in OpenSuse 11.1 | Jul 29 02:09 |
| DaemonFC | and blew up my whole system | Jul 29 02:09 |
| DaemonFC | :D | Jul 29 02:10 |
| DaemonFC | I guess the biggest draw for me is that everything is built with GCC 4.5 | Jul 29 02:10 |
| DaemonFC | which is supposed to make certain things significantly faster | Jul 29 02:10 |
| neighborlee | faster,more staBLE ? | Jul 29 02:10 |
| neighborlee | I mean as in both | Jul 29 02:11 |
| DaemonFC | Firefox had some regressions with 4.5, it got slower | Jul 29 02:11 |
| DaemonFC | but those are mainly a problem with Firefox | Jul 29 02:11 |
| DaemonFC | not GCC | Jul 29 02:11 |
| neighborlee | I dont doubt it | Jul 29 02:11 |
| neighborlee | I gave up some on ff, found it buggy'ish | Jul 29 02:11 |
| DaemonFC | I think OpenSuse is still building Firefox with GCC 4.4 | Jul 29 02:11 |
| DaemonFC | just because of that | Jul 29 02:11 |
| DaemonFC | Mozilla is using 4.3.3 still | Jul 29 02:12 |
| DaemonFC | in their trunk builds :P | Jul 29 02:12 |
| neighborlee | :) | Jul 29 02:12 |
| neighborlee | yeah well newish gcc builds I guess would be a tad radioactive ;) | Jul 29 02:12 |
| DaemonFC | the scary thing about Firefox from Mozilla is that it's not built with stack protection | Jul 29 02:13 |
| DaemonFC | so 0-days that depend on stack corruption will succeed in Mozilla's Firefox | Jul 29 02:13 |
| neighborlee | why I wonder,< as if I know anything about that, but still im curious> | Jul 29 02:13 |
| DaemonFC | but will simply crash Firefox included in most distros | Jul 29 02:13 |
| DaemonFC | so it's a strong argument for using distro Firefox if you visit some dodgy sites :P | Jul 29 02:13 |
| neighborlee | heh | Jul 29 02:14 |
| neighborlee | I use opera and chrome usuallly | Jul 29 02:14 |
| neighborlee | not that Im entirely happy with Either ;0 | Jul 29 02:14 |
| DaemonFC | Opera has gotten a lot better about detecting attack sites | Jul 29 02:14 |
| DaemonFC | Firefox isn't so good at that | Jul 29 02:14 |
| DaemonFC | lots of false positives | Jul 29 02:14 |
| neighborlee | I do like opera mail though..its not bad at all..I tried thunderbird and man its slllllow to respond deleting emails | Jul 29 02:14 |
| DaemonFC | Google Safe Browsing sucks, frankly | Jul 29 02:14 |
| DaemonFC | if your site is clean and links to another site that's clean, which has a link somewhere on it to an attack site, Google may flag your site as an attack site | Jul 29 02:15 |
| DaemonFC | even though there's nothing wrong with it | Jul 29 02:15 |
| neighborlee | yeah | Jul 29 02:15 |
| neighborlee | guilty by association LOL | Jul 29 02:15 |
| DaemonFC | no | Jul 29 02:16 |
| DaemonFC | guilt by associated association | Jul 29 02:16 |
| DaemonFC | B-) | Jul 29 02:17 |
| DaemonFC | so Opera warns you less because it doesn't warn about sites that are harmless that link to another harmless site that links to an actual attack site | Jul 29 02:17 |
| DaemonFC | :P | Jul 29 02:17 |
| DaemonFC | but if you try to visit the attack site itself, the alarms go off :) | Jul 29 02:18 |
| DaemonFC | which is a better approach imo | Jul 29 02:18 |
| DaemonFC | Firefox's warnings tend to become like Windows UAC | Jul 29 02:18 |
| DaemonFC | you get so used to smacking the go away button, that when you're really in danger, muscle memory makes you slap the "Proceed anyway" thing | Jul 29 02:19 |
| DaemonFC | and you end up on the actual malicious site | Jul 29 02:19 |
| DaemonFC | or so goes the theory :D | Jul 29 02:19 |

| DaemonFC | "Are you sure?" prompts should be limited to only the most dangerous actions or on actual malicious behavior | Jul 29 02:20 |
| DaemonFC | not "OMG, the user just copied a file!!!! ZOMG!!! Are you SURE!?!?!?" | Jul 29 02:20 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 29 02:20 |
| cubezzz3 | I don't think I've seen any malacious sites in ages | Jul 29 02:20 |
| DaemonFC | really, the OS should be able to tell what tried to copy the file, and if copying it to that location poses a threat | Jul 29 02:21 |
| DaemonFC | if you think about it, package managers on Linux have spoiled people | Jul 29 02:21 |
| DaemonFC | if you had to deal with /opt every day, then UAC seems like a bed of roses | Jul 29 02:21 |

| cubevector | but major $$$ | Jul 29 03:52 |
| neighborlee | cubezzz3: Not that windows doesn't have its share of goofups, but vendors specifically target that OS for good reason and I can't even tell yo how much headaches ive had in linux over years for such reasons. | Jul 29 03:52 |

| neighborlee | I wondered | Jul 29 03:53 |

| cubevector | the problem was the switch away from SCL in around 2000 | Jul 29 03:53 |

| cubevector | for HP anyways, I talked to them about it many times | Jul 29 03:53 |

| cubevector | HP kind of sucks now though | Jul 29 03:54 |

| neighborlee | my sccanner all in one is HP works great in linux usually..but sometimes its a major headache,,and thats a 'good' vendor ;) | Jul 29 03:54 |
| cubevector | I'd probaby need to reverse engineer the commands :-/ | Jul 29 03:55 |

| cubezzz3 | contracts, archiving, programming... | Jul 29 04:03 |
| neighborlee | ah yes | Jul 29 04:03 |
| cubezzz3 | i guess that's IT | Jul 29 04:03 |
| neighborlee | all I know is its about time ubuntu gave up on mono...I just hope they are serious enough to get it ALL removed ;) | Jul 29 04:04 |
| cubezzz3 | I wrote my own scanner program, but it's kind of hard to scan without any preview window | Jul 29 04:04 |
| neighborlee | im still in a 'non trust' mode with them..so ill prob. continue to consider BSD where qt is used and no mono exists ;) | Jul 29 04:04 |
| neighborlee | true that | Jul 29 04:05 |
| neighborlee | very hard ;) | Jul 29 04:05 |
| neighborlee | lots of trial/error >time ;) | Jul 29 04:05 |
| cubezzz3 | I could scan the whole area, then ftp the whole thing back, then edit it | Jul 29 04:05 |
| cubezzz3 | or just buy another LCD | Jul 29 04:05 |
| neighborlee | heh ,,cheaper cost if you factor in lost time ;) | Jul 29 04:05 |

| cubezzz3 | SIM card reader amarsh04? | Jul 29 04:07 |
| cubezzz3 | eprom programmer is another sticky one | Jul 29 04:07 |
| amarsh04 | yes, SIM as in Subscriber Identity Module, the smartcard that goes in your GSM handset | Jul 29 04:08 |
| cubezzz3 | oh, ok | Jul 29 04:08 |
| cubezzz3 | never had to use one of those | Jul 29 04:08 |
| amarsh04 | I can connect my current GSM handset to the pc via an expensive cable and use Wammu/Gammu to read most data from it, but reading the card directly would also be good | Jul 29 04:09 |
| cubezzz3 | ssh -X is a touchy thing | Jul 29 04:12 |
| cubezzz3 | two Linuxes the same, no problem | Jul 29 04:12 |

| sebsebseb | Just do PC Linux OS instead :) not virtual machine tried it properly yet, just very briefly with the Gnome version and maybe KDE as well. However its apparently really good. | Jul 29 15:26 |
| MinceR | i've found PCLOS to be incredibly unpolished | Jul 29 15:27 |

| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[glynmoody] @schestowitz sure, but equally it's worth exploring various avenues | Jul 29 21:01 | |
| DaemonFC | OpenSuse isn't pulseaudio friendly even with kmix-pulse apparently | Jul 29 21:04 |
| DaemonFC | heh | Jul 29 21:04 |
| DaemonFC | apparently Mandriva's patching goes further than kmix and phonon | Jul 29 21:05 |
| cubevector | lol | Jul 29 21:05 |
| nsisodiya | schestowitz: Hi, have you seen my invention | Jul 29 21:05 |
| DaemonFC | I would figure it out | Jul 29 21:05 |
| DaemonFC | but Mandriva works and OpenSuse doesn't | Jul 29 21:06 |
| cubevector | well I never pay much attention to Microsoft's 'patents' | Jul 29 21:06 |
| DaemonFC | so I'll just use Mandriva and let it be | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz | The $35 laptop? :;p | Jul 29 21:06 |
| cubevector | does the $35 laptop come with win7? | Jul 29 21:06 |

| cubevector | cuz I really want that ;-) | Jul 29 21:06 |
| nsisodiya | cubevector: schestowitz $35 is a fakeware, India is best to produce these fake news. | Jul 29 21:07 |
| cubevector | ah bummer | Jul 29 21:07 |
| DaemonFC | upon inspection of the rattling noise coming from my CPU fan, I noticed two things | Jul 29 21:08 |
| DaemonFC | 1. The factory didn't secure the screws as much as they could have | Jul 29 21:08 |
| nsisodiya | cubevector: schestowitz India is far behind in production, how can one build such a low cost PC. even the CPU and mother/fatherboard will cost more then $35 | Jul 29 21:08 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] @glynmoody I heard the soot story before, from someone who is sceptical about global warming. New strategy is change goalposts. #magicpill | Jul 29 21:08 | |
| DaemonFC | 2. The fan seemed to be brushing against a capacitor that was sticking out | Jul 29 21:08 |
| DaemonFC | so I took a Qtip and bent it inward slightly | Jul 29 21:09 |
| DaemonFC | :P | Jul 29 21:09 |
| cubevector | DaemonFC, you need to switch to fanless computer | Jul 29 21:09 |
| cubevector | like my 486 :) | Jul 29 21:09 |
| DaemonFC | yeah, that would be nice | Jul 29 21:10 |
| DaemonFC | fan noise sucks | Jul 29 21:10 |
| DaemonFC | making sure the fans are dusted every few months goes a long way towards keeping the noise to a minimum | Jul 29 21:10 |
| cubevector | less cpu heat == great longevity | Jul 29 21:10 |
| DaemonFC | the Linux kernel power management is also far better than Windows | Jul 29 21:10 |
| DaemonFC | I noticed that Windows tends to keep my CPUs running at the full 3.2 Ghz most of the time | Jul 29 21:11 |
| DaemonFC | while in Linux, they're usually running at 800 Mhz | Jul 29 21:11 |
| cubevector | nsisodiya, I figured India announces $35 computer, then builds $100 computer | Jul 29 21:11 |
| DaemonFC | unless something actually needs them running at full speed, they're scaled back | Jul 29 21:11 |
| DaemonFC | and the fans can slow down | Jul 29 21:11 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 29 21:11 |
| schestowitz | nsisodiya: no PM | Jul 29 21:12 |
| DaemonFC | less noise, less heat, less wear and tear | Jul 29 21:12 |
| cubevector | ok, question... | Jul 29 21:12 |
| schestowitz | I saw that | Jul 29 21:12 |
| nsisodiya | schestowitz: OK | Jul 29 21:12 |
| cubevector | is there any current CPU which can run fanless? | Jul 29 21:12 |
| DaemonFC | I'm all for it | Jul 29 21:12 |
| DaemonFC | cubevector: The Via C7-D can | Jul 29 21:12 |
| DaemonFC | it's fairly cheap | Jul 29 21:12 |
| DaemonFC | possible to run the motherboard and CPU, complete with integrated graphics on 25 watts | Jul 29 21:12 |
| DaemonFC | apparently | Jul 29 21:12 |
| DaemonFC | add a hard drive, case fan, few peripherals, and the maximum power use would be about that of a standard light bulb :) (60-70 watts) | Jul 29 21:13 |

| cubevector | that's not bad | Jul 29 21:14 |
| DaemonFC | as for performance, it can't stack up to most desktops, but you could put it in one of those little Mini-ITX cases | Jul 29 21:14 |
| DaemonFC | and give a Mac Mini a run for its money (at around $400 cheaper) | Jul 29 21:14 |
| DaemonFC | :D | Jul 29 21:14 |
| DaemonFC | for x86, it's fairly efficient, which isn't saying much I guess | Jul 29 21:15 |
| DaemonFC | you could probably cut the power use down further with ARM or MIPS | Jul 29 21:15 |
| cubevector | what if I want non-x86? | Jul 29 21:15 |
| DaemonFC | I've been looking into that out of curiosity | Jul 29 21:15 |
| DaemonFC | importing a system with one of those Chinese Loonson III quad core CPUs seems like the best non-x86 deal you'll get | Jul 29 21:16 |

| DaemonFC | they even have added instructions to help it with x86 virtualization | Jul 29 21:16 |
| DaemonFC | so you could actually stuff Windows XP or whatever into an emulator and run it at an acceptable speed | Jul 29 21:17 |
| cubevector | I'll probably just get a Sun | Jul 29 21:17 |
| DaemonFC | if you actually needed to use Windows for anything | Jul 29 21:17 |
| cubevector | run it as a server | Jul 29 21:17 |
| cubevector | bah, no, don't need doze | Jul 29 21:17 |
| cubevector | why run the worst? :) | Jul 29 21:17 |
| DaemonFC | cause you can | Jul 29 21:18 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 29 21:18 |
| DaemonFC | :P | Jul 29 21:18 |
| DaemonFC | Wine 1.2 has gotten sufficiently good that I don't really miss Windows a whole lot | Jul 29 21:18 |
| DaemonFC | pretty much my entire stack of XP-compatible video games runs with good speed now | Jul 29 21:19 |
| DaemonFC | that was the biggest "ouch" in formatting Windows off the disk entirely | Jul 29 21:19 |
| cubevector | hmmm | Jul 29 21:19 |
| MinceR | windows has gotten sufficiently bad that i don't really miss windows when i can avoid using it :> | Jul 29 21:20 |
| cubevector | no, i don't miss windows at all, I must say | Jul 29 21:20 |
| DaemonFC | yeah, I have a stack of video games spanning about 20 years give or take | Jul 29 21:20 |
| DaemonFC | all the way back to DOS | Jul 29 21:20 |
| cubevector | FreeDos for very old games | Jul 29 21:20 |
| DaemonFC | and so between Wine and DOSBox, I can run most of them | Jul 29 21:20 |
| DaemonFC | I just use DOSBox | Jul 29 21:20 |
| DaemonFC | how hard is it to emulate a CPU fast enough to run a DOS environment, really? :) | Jul 29 21:21 |
| cubevector | yeah well the 486 with FreeDos > Dosbox | Jul 29 21:21 |
| cubevector | sound emulation isn't 100% | Jul 29 21:21 |
| cubevector | and I need the CRT for 320x200 proper | Jul 29 21:21 |
| DaemonFC | next time I get paid, I'm probably going to chips something in as a donation to Mandriva | Jul 29 21:21 |
| squarepeg | reset | Jul 29 21:22 |
| DaemonFC | I would buy a Powerpack subscription, but then a lot of that goes to Fluendo | Jul 29 21:22 |
| DaemonFC | and gets funneled off to Microsoft and MPEG-LA | Jul 29 21:22 |
| DaemonFC | but they do have a donation page | Jul 29 21:22 |
| DaemonFC | so at least that way 100% of the money goes to them | Jul 29 21:22 |
| cubevector | what is Powerpack? | Jul 29 21:22 |
| cubevector | it's a microsoft thing? :) | Jul 29 21:23 |
| DaemonFC | it has part of the Fluendo codec pack | Jul 29 21:26 |
| DaemonFC | the Fluendo DVD player | Jul 29 21:26 |
| DaemonFC | and usually a few non-free apps like Picasa and Opera which you can get from the non-free repo anyway | Jul 29 21:27 |
| DaemonFC | it used to have more | Jul 29 21:27 |
| DaemonFC | what sucks about the Powerpack is that even after you buy the licensed codecs that come with it, you still have to find an unlicensed encoder somewhere else | Jul 29 21:27 |
| cubevector | why not just use mplayer & mencoder? | Jul 29 21:28 |
| DaemonFC | like I said, if licensed and unlicensed bother you | Jul 29 21:28 |
| DaemonFC | then mencoder and mplayer are not licensed | Jul 29 21:29 |
| DaemonFC | I doubt anyone really cares | Jul 29 21:29 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Yet another "mystery" "new" Twitter account, supporting Microsoft. I've asked for disclosure...I wonder.... | Jul 29 21:32 | |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] This one though is extra special, he/she seems to think my reviews/interviews and opinion are lifted from elsewhere. | Jul 29 21:33 | |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] I wonder, since the MVPawardprogram is not a bot, will they be willing to answer some questions in relation to MVP's? | Jul 29 21:37 | |
| *nsisodiya has quit (Quit: Page closed) | Jul 29 21:38 | |
| DaemonFC | Suse is the only Linux distro I know of that fails to load X, doesn't give you any explanation, and dumps you to a console login that says "Have a lot of fun!" | Jul 29 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 29 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | cubevector: I did figure out what was screwing Fedora up real bad after installing Catalyst | Jul 29 21:42 |
| DaemonFC | the Catalyst driver doesn't blacklist the "radeon" driver or turn off KMS | Jul 29 21:42 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] @_goblin re "Yet another "mystery" "new" Twitter account, supporting Microsoft." >sometimes they hire agencies like Edelman | Jul 29 21:42 | |
| DaemonFC | so Fedora ends up trying to load both drivers, and use KMS | Jul 29 21:42 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 29 21:42 |
| DaemonFC | you can fix both these issues by hand, but I'd suggest doing it before you reboot B-) | Jul 29 21:43 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] @schestowitz I'd suggest then they hire someone else. This new one only has 1 follower. I wonder if they respond to my disclosure request? | Jul 29 21:43 | |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] @_goblin "MVPawardprogram" - let's dissect. MVP = booster, AstroTurfer, de facto PR person; Award = incentive, bribe, gift, schwag | Jul 29 21:43 | |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz: yeah, they like to give out free copies of Windows and other stuff to MVPs | Jul 29 21:44 |
| DaemonFC | they used to mail you out a boxed set | Jul 29 21:44 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] @_goblin poor sod, soon s/he'll be discharged | Jul 29 21:44 | |
| DaemonFC | now they let you download it and burn it to your own disc :P | Jul 29 21:45 |
| schestowitz | DaemonFC: yes, my brother told me today | Jul 29 21:45 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] @schestowitz It was only recently I found out the status has to be renewed annually...great way to keep "loyalty" | Jul 29 21:45 | |
| schestowitz | He told me he's trying to get all the freebies from them | Jul 29 21:45 |
| schestowitz | Then I explained to his they give his VS so that he'd end up creating s/w that requires each copy receiver to pay for a $4000 Microsoft licence | Jul 29 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz: I still have my boxed copies of Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, and Windows 2000 somewhere | Jul 29 21:46 |
| schestowitz | They disseminate their crap through acedemia | Jul 29 21:46 |
| schestowitz | As always | Jul 29 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | they have a copy of Bill Gates' signature on them | Jul 29 21:46 |
| schestowitz | And some stupid professors become their accomplices | Jul 29 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | and a thank you letter :P | Jul 29 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | that's where I got my copy of Windows 2000 at | Jul 29 21:47 |
| DaemonFC | I did get a lot of use out of that | Jul 29 21:47 |
| DaemonFC | especially by formatting over Windows XP and using Windows 2000 instead | Jul 29 21:47 |
| DaemonFC | :D | Jul 29 21:47 |
| schestowitz | Free coasters! | Jul 29 21:47 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] @_goblin so Miguel de Icaza will need to renews his "MVP" soon | Jul 29 21:47 | |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] @schestowitz I wouldn't mind so much, but how dare they suggest "lifted" in regards to my blog and opinion. | Jul 29 21:47 | |
| schestowitz | "Gimme gimme gimme" | Jul 29 21:48 |
| DaemonFC | Windows 2000 did actually perform better than XP | Jul 29 21:48 |
| DaemonFC | but Microsoft paid a bunch of "professional reviewers" to fabricate benchmarks favoring XP | Jul 29 21:48 |
| DaemonFC | my own results were almost always in favor of Windows 2000 | Jul 29 21:48 |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] @_goblin Maybe "lifted" as in elevated, like Jesus going to Heaven | Jul 29 21:48 | |
| schestowitz | DaemonFC: their EULA doesn't allow ebnchamrks | Jul 29 21:49 |
| schestowitz | Not without Microsoft's approval | Jul 29 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | yeah, but that doesn't mean anything | Jul 29 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | when have they sued someone in the US for posting benchmarks? | Jul 29 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | they couldn't | Jul 29 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | maybe in the UK | Jul 29 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | I'm sure someone in the UK would be sued if they ever did that | Jul 29 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | your laws are more favorable to SLAPP trolls | Jul 29 21:50 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 29 21:50 |
| schestowitz | Interest in Microsoft is waning | Jul 29 21:51 |
| schestowitz | Apple is the new thing, I think | Jul 29 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz: Under Indiana law, I would have had to have defamed them in a way that was knowingly false | Jul 29 21:52 |
| DaemonFC | and their lawsuit for merely posting benchmarks wouldn't be allowed unless I knowingly fabricated them | Jul 29 21:52 |
| DaemonFC | and they could prove it | Jul 29 21:52 |
| DaemonFC | that's why they never actually try to sue for that | Jul 29 21:52 |
| DaemonFC | most states have similar anti-SLAPP laws | Jul 29 21:52 |
| DaemonFC | their EULA banning reverse engineering is also unenforceable | Jul 29 21:53 |
| DaemonFC | Google reverse engineered chunks of the Windows kernel to build Chrome | Jul 29 21:54 |
| DaemonFC | no lawsuit | Jul 29 21:54 |
| DaemonFC | Wine reverse engineers things, no lawsuit | Jul 29 21:54 |
| DaemonFC | they throw things in the EULA that would never stand up in court just because it sounds scary to people who are ignorant of the law and presume the EULA would stand up in court | Jul 29 21:55 |
| DaemonFC | they try to use ignorance and fear to get their critics to censor themselves, but it's really just a gigantic bluff | Jul 29 21:56 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz: Indiana is not known to rule favorably towards patent trolls either | Jul 29 21:57 |
| DaemonFC | that's why you never hear about patent trolls abusing the courts here | Jul 29 21:58 |
| DaemonFC | patent trolls prefer Texas | Jul 29 21:58 |
| DaemonFC | collection agencies prefer Minnesota | Jul 29 21:59 |
| DaemonFC | they still arrest people and throw them in jail in Minnesota | Jul 29 21:59 |
| DaemonFC | over things like unpaid medical bills | Jul 29 21:59 |
| DaemonFC | creditors love Minnesota | Jul 29 21:59 |
| DaemonFC | Indiana's constitution forbids arrest or detention over unpaid debt | Jul 29 22:00 |
| DaemonFC | so you really do have to watch what state you decide to live in | Jul 29 22:00 |
| DaemonFC | in some ways, it is like moving to another country | Jul 29 22:00 |
| DaemonFC | the only thing that's uniform is federal law | Jul 29 22:01 |
| DaemonFC | the only way you could be arrested over debt in Indiana is if you're actually sued, you get summoned to court, and you don't show up | Jul 29 22:02 |
| DaemonFC | then you can get a bench warrant | Jul 29 22:02 |
| DaemonFC | which is just the judge saying "arrest him and bring him to me" | Jul 29 22:02 |
| DaemonFC | so you'd probably only spend a day in jail even then | Jul 29 22:02 |
| DaemonFC | but it can't be imposed as a sentence for nonpayment | Jul 29 22:03 |
| DaemonFC | unless it's child support, which is just one more reason to not have kids | Jul 29 22:03 |
| DaemonFC | show me how many women actually get arrested and thrown in jail over not paying child support | Jul 29 22:04 |

| DaemonFC | but don't you dare discriminate against those lesbian multiracial devil worshippers | Jul 29 22:05 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 29 22:05 |
| DaemonFC | now you have minorities campaigning for the repeal of Affirmative Action laws, now that the Supreme Court is listening to discrimination cases brought by white men | Jul 29 22:06 |

| DaemonFC | hmmm, the precompiled Sauerbraten binary does not support Mandriva | Jul 29 22:15 |
| DaemonFC | hmmmph | Jul 29 22:15 |
| *DaemonFC gets the SDL development packages :P | Jul 29 22:15 | |
| MinceR | get mandriva to package it then | Jul 29 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | they could package the engine, but not the game data | Jul 29 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | it would have to be in PLF | Jul 29 22:16 |
| MinceR | they have a nonfree repo, do they not? | Jul 29 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | and I don't think they have the bandwidth to carry that | Jul 29 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | well, yeah | Jul 29 22:16 |
| MinceR | in the worst case they could include a script with the engine package which downloads the game data and installs it | Jul 29 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | I don't think they put games in there though | Jul 29 22:16 |
