DaemonFC | schestowitz, It's a common problem with free software supporting proprietary hardware where it's easier to add a workaround than ask the vendor to fix their broken hardware | Apr 15 00:39 |
DaemonFC | this time it was Gallium which had to workaround broken proprietary software | Apr 15 00:39 |
DaemonFC | even though Gallium's previous behavior was more correct | Apr 15 00:39 |
DaemonFC | :) | Apr 15 00:39 |
DaemonFC | the fix was trivial, all the "new" extension is, is an alias to the old one | Apr 15 00:40 |
DaemonFC | but imagine what could end up happening if every OpenGL application did this, and Gallium had to claim to support two extensions for every extension it really does support | Apr 15 00:41 |
DaemonFC | the proprietary OpenGL stacks do that and it's one reason why their glxinfo goes on, and on, and on | Apr 15 00:41 |
DaemonFC | :P | Apr 15 00:41 |
DaemonFC | I suppose there's no harm in it other then making the output of glxinfo really unreadable | Apr 15 00:42 |
DaemonFC | and adding several hundred lines of code just to alias vendor names to the extension name | Apr 15 00:42 |
DaemonFC | :) | Apr 15 00:42 |
DaemonFC | it would be nice if they could just scrap OpenGL and start over with a new 3d API designed for modern hardware and to avoid patents and bloated extensions that really are only good for claiming to support the entire API | Apr 15 00:44 |
DaemonFC | :) | Apr 15 00:44 |
schestowitz | Don't they also increase directhacks support | Apr 15 00:44 |
schestowitz | ? | Apr 15 00:44 |

DaemonFC | there's the Miguel de Icazas out there trying to legitimize OOXML even though they can't show me a single file that MS Office saves that anything else can properly open | Apr 15 13:05 |

oiaohm | MS is down right unless at writing spec documents. | Apr 15 13:06 |
oiaohm | That windows works with Windows of different versions is more good luck than good management. | Apr 15 13:06 |

DaemonFC | Microsoft's is broken deliberately and other office suites implement different bits and pieces of ODF | Apr 15 13:11 |
DaemonFC | so I don't consider it legitimate either | Apr 15 13:11 |

DaemonFC | but I still think it's bullshit | Apr 15 13:12 |
oiaohm | Really Microsoft pushed the weakness in the ODF standard. | Apr 15 13:12 |
oiaohm | Most of those weaknesses will disappear in 1.2 ODF | Apr 15 13:12 |
DaemonFC | KOffice is really the only non BlOOoated Office that comes close to implementing ODF | Apr 15 13:13 |
DaemonFC | and even if misses sometimes | Apr 15 13:13 |
oiaohm | ODF 1.1 MS forced OOXML formulars for excel like stuff into there ODF files. | Apr 15 13:13 |
DaemonFC | so you still end up with two suites that claim to use the same format | Apr 15 13:13 |
DaemonFC | that really don't | Apr 15 13:14 |
oiaohm | But really lot of ODF 1.0 programs just used what ever for the same thing. | Apr 15 13:14 |

oiaohm | Yep end users are dumb. | Apr 15 13:19 |
oiaohm | Wait goverments are workign out its costly. | Apr 15 13:19 |
oiaohm | That started the push for ODF leading to MS trying to invent OOXML to stop the progress. | Apr 15 13:19 |
oiaohm | ODF has been slower because its been designed on a shared model. | Apr 15 13:20 |
DaemonFC | My dad was bitching about the place he worked at (long time ago) upgrading to Office 97, which pulled in IE 4 | Apr 15 13:21 |

DaemonFC | so half the people there had 97 and others were stuck on 95 until their IT department could work things out | Apr 15 13:22 |

sebsebseb | either way though, the little things in PC Linux OS, that annoy me, such as not always just being able to play OGG properly, are starting to annoy me, so yeah | Apr 15 17:41 |
sebsebseb | pluss the way they do Gnome isn't that good menu it comes to the menu, but yeah Ubuntu do Gnome way worse overall since 9.04 really, but with Unity at least it makes their Gnome patching into something differnet | Apr 15 17:42 |

places that run 24 hours/day need 12 hour shifts but workers usually go 4 days on 3 days off, if they have decent bargaining power | Apr 15 19:12 | |
I'm not too surprised to learn that 12 hour, 5 day weeks eventually become 12 hour, 7 day weeks. | Apr 15 19:12 | |
from the article, "Even though working all the time is a horrible way to go through life, those getting 70+ hours a week are often considered the lucky ones. With a substantial percentage of folks either unemployed for long periods or working part-time minimum wage jobs, the employers have set up a system where the worker who does nothing but eat, sleep, and work is envied." | Apr 15 19:13 | |

schestowitz | "The articles are very well written and all sources for the articles are documented". Let's look at that. | Apr 15 21:10 |
schestowitz | First, "well written". In fact they are childishly written. He plays dumb games with the names. He never talks about iPhone or iPad--they are always hypePhone and hypePad. The BBC is MSBBC. Florien Mueller is "Microsoft Florien". And so on and so on. But if anyone calls him "Spamowitz" or "Glen Schestowitz" he complains bitterly about how his enemies are attacking him. | Apr 15 21:10 |
schestowitz | [/quote] | Apr 15 21:10 |
schestowitz | Can you provide an example of me actually attacking these names? Like "Glen Schestowitz"? The childish comparison involving Beck was actually /amusing/ to me because I loathe Beck's opinions and even Fox 'News' had to let him go. I'm a liberal, not a Republican. | Apr 15 21:10 |
schestowitz | [quote] | Apr 15 21:10 |
schestowitz | Second, "documents". To be documented they need to cite verifiable THIRD PARTY sources. | Apr 15 21:10 |
schestowitz | [/quote] | Apr 15 21:10 |
schestowitz | Like the Comes vs Microsoft class action site? Done that. It has thousands of exhibits. Microsoft paid Conlin to have the site nuked, but many people had already grabbed copies and made identical mirrors with download logs which help verify authenticity. | Apr 15 21:10 |
*Diablo-D3 has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) | Apr 15 21:11 | |
schestowitz | When I choose names like hypePhone and hypePad I try to make them funny, not insulting, and also a reflecting of reality. The FSF does the same thing (e.g. iBad, Swindle, Windows 7 Sins). | Apr 15 21:12 |
schestowitz | [/quote] | Apr 15 21:13 |
schestowitz | His articles do have an impressive number of links in them. Most link back to earlier articles of his own. Try following those, and the links in those articles. It is like winning the lottery when you actually end up at a third party source and it supports what Schestowitz says it says. | Apr 15 21:13 |

schestowitz | Here's another good example of poor research: http://techrights.org/2011/01/12/kinect-vs-move-and-truth/. He praises Sony for selling 4.1 million Moves in 2 months, and says it is beating Kinect. I invite you to do the research that Roy either didn't do, or purposefully ignored. You'll find Kinect did 4 million in ONE MONTH, and by two months was at something like 8 million. (Oh, Sony's numbers were "sell in", and Microsoft's were " | Apr 15 21:29 |

schestowitz | [/quote] | Apr 15 21:29 |
schestowitz | Sony seems to have gamed numbers by channel-stuffing, much in the same way that Microsoft always done (and Techrights kept good record of that). If the Sony 'numbers game' fooled us, then we may have an error there, one error in a pile of 13,000+ posts (which may make the above nitpicking on being deceived by Sony, makers of rootkits and lawsuits against PS3 enthusiasts). | Apr 15 21:29 |

schestowitz | A final example: http://techrights.org/2010/08/26/aviation-and-windows-2/. He claims the crash of a Spanair plane was caused by malware. This is an outright lie. The crash was caused by the flaps being in an incorrect position at takeoff, because the pilots did not go through the preflight checklist. There was a warning system that should have warned them of this--but it was not a computerized warning system. | Apr 15 21:29 |

schestowitz | [quote] | Apr 15 21:30 |
schestowitz | There was (possibly) malware on a computer owned by Spanair. That computer was at headquarters, hundreds of miles from the plane and crash, and was used to file maintenance reports. Its connection to the crashed flight was that if all had gone well, a day or two *AFTER* the crash, a maintenance report on that plane was due to be filed, and the computer was supposed to then notice that the plane had had the same problem three times in a | Apr 15 21:30 |

schestowitz | I might just edit something small like "M$" | Apr 15 22:06 |

schestowitz | "Don't take TR seriously because it says "M$"" | Apr 15 22:06 |
schestowitz | They do that even if I type hypePad | Apr 15 22:06 |
I should start migrating stuff from Slashdot to Techrights. I've quit using M$ because Google does not index it. | Apr 15 22:06 | |

M$ shows they are only interested in money. | Apr 15 22:07 | |
there's nothing "immature" about it. | Apr 15 22:07 | |

It would not do to say that you are simply offended by lies and love free software. | Apr 15 23:52 | |
that free software advocates are simply trying to share something good with people | Apr 15 23:52 | |
schestowitz | I will post Daily Links soon | Apr 15 23:52 |
cubezzz | you have to admit, the pre-windows era of computing can be appealing | Apr 15 23:53 |
schestowitz | If I was crazy, I'd not manage to go along with 2 simultaneous jobs plus a site over so many years | Apr 15 23:53 |
they would rather make free software people into villains, bitter and blinded by the success of truth, the American Way and other stuff non free software people claim to represent | Apr 15 23:53 | |
schestowitz | So people hopefully don't need some public rebuttal to that "paranoid" smar | Apr 15 23:53 |
schestowitz | In fact, it's one reason why _Goblin and I need to do video too | Apr 15 23:54 |
schestowitz | To counter the whole suggestion of pathology or whatever | Apr 15 23:54 |
yes, that's a good idea | Apr 15 23:54 | |
schestowitz | Pj did several audio things | Apr 15 23:54 |
schestowitz | No video/image | Apr 15 23:54 |
schestowitz | Maybe she doesn't want to give appearance/age away | Apr 15 23:54 |
schestowitz | And they annoy her to dare her to do so | Apr 15 23:54 |

schestowitz | "Show youself or you dont' EXIST!!" | Apr 15 23:54 |
spending money to be harassed by Novell asses at some corporate event is not such a good idea. | Apr 15 23:54 | |
schestowitz | And then they can start stalking her again | Apr 15 23:55 |
schestowitz | Or do the anti-RMS trick | Apr 15 23:55 |
_Goblin | schestowitz: I'm not sure if I exist or not | Apr 15 23:55 |
schestowitz | "Ingore what RMS says" | Apr 15 23:55 |
_Goblin | what is existence anyway? | Apr 15 23:55 |
schestowitz | "Cause he has a beard" | Apr 15 23:55 |
schestowitz | "He looks disgusting" | Apr 15 23:55 |
schestowitz | "Look what he does with his toe" | Apr 15 23:55 |
schestowitz | "Don't listen to him" | Apr 15 23:55 |
schestowitz | RMS = looks like communism | Apr 15 23:55 |

schestowitz | "RMS will eat your kids" | Apr 15 23:56 |
schestowitz | "Stay away from RMS, he's a lunatic..." | Apr 15 23:56 |
_Goblin | and your family pet | Apr 15 23:56 |
schestowitz | "You don't want to be associated with zealots" | Apr 15 23:56 |
they push it onto young and inexperienced people who are eager to fit in. Microsoft knows their targets and victims well. | Apr 15 23:57 | |
schestowitz | Then people listen to him and actually say, "hang on a minute, he's clever and nice" | Apr 15 23:57 |
very clever, but it was his writing that won me over. | Apr 15 23:57 | |
schestowitz | Interviewers apologise to him as if they harass him or as though he's anti-social by their expectations | Apr 15 23:57 |
