DaemonFCSome guy on an ipad asked me what the lowest I'd go on it would be.Oct 11 05:30
DaemonFCI told him probably $800 if he gets over here tomorrow.Oct 11 05:30
DaemonFCI probably won't get much more than that.Oct 11 05:31
DaemonFCIf he tries to get me lower than that I'm going to tell him "Look. It's 2013. You're lucky to get something that makes it down the road for less than $1,000."Oct 11 05:32

DaemonFCWhat the fuck does he think he's buying?Oct 11 05:55
DaemonFCIf he wants to go below $800 on my old car, he can just buy himself a damned bicycle.Oct 11 05:55
DaemonFCDoes he expect me to give it to him for free?Oct 11 05:55
DaemonFCIf I can't get $800 out of it, I'll just give it to family so they can finish it off.Oct 11 05:56
DaemonFCIt has probably got a good 3-4 years left.Oct 11 05:56
DaemonFC$800 is like two months of car payments these days.Oct 11 05:56
DaemonFCI think it's a good deal.Oct 11 05:56

MinceRor they were mandated to buy big and heavy vehiclesOct 11 14:43
DaemonFCThey don't have to.Oct 11 14:43
MinceRand honda doesn't do thoseOct 11 14:43
DaemonFCThere's no federal law demanding that.Oct 11 14:43
DaemonFCIf there was a more cost effective import that could hold up under their use case, at least the majority of states would allow them to buy it.Oct 11 14:43

MinceR(big and heavy _does_ look like something that's useful for police forces)Oct 11 14:44
DaemonFCThey stopped selling them retail in 2004 I believe.Oct 11 14:44
DaemonFCYou have to get them at Fleet auctions now if you want one newer than that.Oct 11 14:44
DaemonFCWell, they switched to Dodge Chargers now.Oct 11 14:44

DaemonFCMinceR, No.Oct 11 14:46
DaemonFCThe Crown Vic is a big rugged cost-effective vehicle that is extremely fast.Oct 11 14:46
oiaohmMinceR: police vehicals have a lot of alterations to make them stronger to being intentionally tboned and other things.Oct 11 14:46
DaemonFCand it gives them a big V8 engine to hide behind when they're being shot at.Oct 11 14:46
MinceRDaemonFC: with such a huge engine it had better be fastOct 11 14:46

DaemonFCThat's where you find the best used cars.Oct 11 14:51

DaemonFCand quite often there's not a thing wrong with themOct 11 14:52

DaemonFCalthough I haven't ever seen it happen.Oct 11 14:52
MinceR:)Oct 11 14:52
DaemonFCThe finance lady at Mike Anderson Dodge offered to put me in an '04 Crown Vic with 131,000 miles on it for $7,500.Oct 11 14:52
DaemonFCand it wasn't even the LXOct 11 14:53
DaemonFC:POct 11 14:53
DaemonFCI got my 1996 Crown Vic LX for $2,200, with full maintenance records.Oct 11 14:53
DaemonFCand it has 94,700 miles on itOct 11 14:53
DaemonFCThose dealerships really know how to fuck you, MinceR Oct 11 14:54
DaemonFCand after you pay them for all that, they figure out fees to add onto it.Oct 11 14:54
DaemonFCso it was really more like $7,800 + tax by the time I got done dealing with Mike Anderson Dodge.Oct 11 14:54
DaemonFCWhat an awful deal.Oct 11 14:54
DaemonFC:POct 11 14:55
DaemonFCI told her that I wouldn't feel right paying more than $4,000 for that car, and that's only because it was an '04.Oct 11 14:55
DaemonFCAge has a really high weight on the value of a car.Oct 11 14:56
DaemonFCI know not why.Oct 11 14:56
MinceRthe older it is, the more chances people had to damage it :>Oct 11 14:56
DaemonFCThere's this several year range where you get them cheap, and then after 25 years, the price goes up again.Oct 11 14:57
MinceReverything gets worseOct 11 14:57
DaemonFCbecause now it's a "classic car"Oct 11 14:57
DaemonFCMinceR, Not really.Oct 11 14:58
DaemonFCIn fact, some of these newer models have so much MANDATORY shit in them that I do not want.Oct 11 14:58
DaemonFCLike Microsoft and Onstar.Oct 11 14:58
MinceRi mean a given car, once manufactured, always get worseOct 11 14:59
MinceRs/get/gets/Oct 11 14:59
DaemonFCThere's not much difference between a 2000 Impala and a new one. The body style changed a little bit and they have mandatory Onstar.Oct 11 14:59
DaemonFCand they get less reliable the newer you goOct 11 14:59
MinceRit gets worn, polluted, damaged, repaired, etc.Oct 11 14:59
DaemonFCThe car companies pay incentives for engineers to sit around figuring out how to make things $5 cheaper.Oct 11 15:00
MinceRpeople you don't know get their mitts all over it :>Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCEnough of that goes on, and your car starts having all kinds of reliability nightmares.Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCIt hasn't gotten any better in the last few years.Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCI feel better driving a used Crown Vic than some of what they sell new.Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCLike, Ford will sell you a Focus now for like $20,000 by the time you get the one with the stuff that everyone wants on it.Oct 11 15:01
MinceRwell, if it got things like mandatory m$ and onstar, it might well be better than the newer _models_Oct 11 15:01
DaemonFCJust basic stuff like auto transmission.Oct 11 15:01
MinceRi mean if the newer models have themOct 11 15:01
DaemonFCand an engine that actually moves the carOct 11 15:01
MinceR:>Oct 11 15:01
DaemonFCI always tell people... If you want a car for 10 years, get a Focus. If you want a car for 20+ years, spring for the Taurus.Oct 11 15:02
DaemonFCIt's a much nicer car. Even the base model.Oct 11 15:02
DaemonFCAnd it's not that much more.Oct 11 15:02
MinceRis the usian Focus anything like the european Focus?Oct 11 15:03
DaemonFCYou'd think that when people are sitting around deciding to commit to a car payment, they'd want to enjoy another 14 years without one when the payments stop.Oct 11 15:03
DaemonFCI think it's more or less the same thing.Oct 11 15:03
DaemonFCI ran into an older guy at the gas station, MinceR. He had a 1992 Crown Vic. I asked him how it was treating him.Oct 11 15:05
DaemonFCHe said he had 392,000+ miles on it.Oct 11 15:05
DaemonFCI asked him what he did to it. He said "Bought it in 1992 and changed some fluids, filters, and some other minor things."Oct 11 15:06
DaemonFCI don't doubt that it's a 30+ year car.Oct 11 15:06
DaemonFCMinceR, It gets about the same gas mileage as my Taurus.Oct 11 15:07
DaemonFCI was watching the computer cycle through various data and it said I was averaging 20.2 mpg.Oct 11 15:07
DaemonFCI bet I could get that up when I go to tune it up here soon.Oct 11 15:07
DaemonFCIt gets better mileage than my grandmother's Cadillac.Oct 11 15:08
DaemonFCI was watching her drive her '04 around, and her computer says she was getting about 15 mpg.Oct 11 15:08
DaemonFCI need to go to Walmart today and get some turtle wax.Oct 11 15:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: something to take into account here.  Gizmos have weight.Oct 11 15:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: ie electric windows are heavier than manual and the list goes on.Oct 11 15:09
DaemonFCoiaohm, Yeah, that train track that sent the Taurus flying the other day.Oct 11 15:09
DaemonFCDidn't even bring the Crown Vic off the ground.Oct 11 15:10
DaemonFCNot an inch.Oct 11 15:10
oiaohmDaemonFC: it is where the weight is.Oct 11 15:10
DaemonFCIt's a much heavier car and the weight is distributed over a much larger area.Oct 11 15:10
DaemonFCIt handled alot better.Oct 11 15:11
DaemonFCoiaohm, What are they up to in Australia?Oct 11 15:12
DaemonFCSame clown cars they get in Europe?Oct 11 15:12
DaemonFCThey're starting to try to impose that on the normalfolk here.Oct 11 15:13
DaemonFC:POct 11 15:13
DaemonFCI'm sure that when nobody else can buy a V8 engine in a sedan, they'll still build one for our Glorious Dear Leader.Oct 11 15:13

_Goblinmincer: DRM in ebook, was & is totally useless...it never gained the traction itunes did...almost from day one there was a "one click fix"Oct 11 21:22
MinceRi knowOct 11 21:22
_Goblinhaving said that....theres some "honesty to drm"....let me explainOct 11 21:23
_Goblina certain publisher released drm free ebooks....so far so good...Oct 11 21:23
_Goblinwhat they didn't mention was that when you ordered one "on the fly" it encoded the ebook with a set of characters that you wouldn't notice....Oct 11 21:23
_Goblinthese characters were intended to track that copy of the ebook as they were unique to that purchase.Oct 11 21:24
MinceRthat's watermarkingOct 11 21:24
MinceRand that can be removed tooOct 11 21:24
_Goblinyep....but done with say, an extra space after a full stop on a certain page..Oct 11 21:24
MinceRif a human can read it then a human can type it and a camera can capture itOct 11 21:25
MinceRregardless of what tricks the DRM weenies employ in their magic boxesOct 11 21:25
_Goblinit wasn't "traditional" watermarking and was impossible to detect unless you had two different copies of the same ebookOct 11 21:25
_Goblinit was a very nasty little system because the end-user was oblivious to any such watermark...this is the type of "DRM" which could be abused .Oct 11 21:26
MinceRat most it could be used to point out the source of some informationOct 11 21:27

_GoblinI think its sole purpose was to chase "pirates" find out the sharing source.Oct 11 21:28
MinceRand the "pirates"' response was dewatermarking toolsOct 11 21:28
_Goblinyep, but then a watermark done by say a varying number of spaces on a certain page to "encode" the purchaser details is almost impossible to remove, since you don't know where the "encoding" of the data is going to be....Oct 11 21:29

MinceRit has been proven theoretically and empirically over and overOct 11 21:40
Sosumiwell, ofc it can'tOct 11 21:40
MinceRyet the simpletons at MAFIAA, m$ and crApple keep forcing itOct 11 21:40

Sosumilike business software alliance and alikesOct 11 21:41
Sosumiadd adobe there too and etc.Oct 11 21:41
MinceRalso, there's another problem with using DRM or watermarking to protect privacy: certain entities who have a backdoor to the DRM or don't need to worry about being found out (via watermarking or otherwise) could violate the privacy of individualsOct 11 21:42
MinceRbut of course m$ doesn't care about the privacy of individualsOct 11 21:42
MinceRyeah, m$ and crApple cronies and front groupsOct 11 21:42
Sosumiso in the end many of those companies act like cartelsOct 11 21:42
SosumiyepOct 11 21:42
ThistleWebDRM from companies like Microsoft isn't about preventing piracy, it's about locking you into their platformsOct 11 21:44
ThistleWebif you buys loads of stuff in their proprietary formats, it's gonna cost you more to switch to a different company next time, cos ya have to rebuy all your stuffOct 11 21:44
MinceRthere's thatOct 11 21:44
ThistleWebso it's cheaper just to stay with the same company, and upgradeOct 11 21:44
MinceRit's even cheaper to pirate :>Oct 11 21:45
MinceRthen again, if m$ manages to kill the personal computer, it might changeOct 11 21:45

oiaohmMinceR: police vehicals have a lot of alterations to make them stronger to being intentionally tboned and other things.Oct 11 14:46

DaemonFCalthough I haven't ever seen it happen.Oct 11 14:52

DaemonFCThe finance lady at Mike Anderson Dodge offered to put me in an '04 Crown Vic with 131,000 miles on it for $7,500.Oct 11 14:53
DaemonFCand it wasn't even the LXOct 11 14:53
DaemonFC:POct 11 14:53
DaemonFCI got my 1996 Crown Vic LX for $2,200, with full maintenance records.Oct 11 14:53
DaemonFCand it has 94,700 miles on itOct 11 14:54
DaemonFCThose dealerships really know how to fuck you, MinceR Oct 11 14:54
DaemonFCand after you pay them for all that, they figure out fees to add onto it.Oct 11 14:54
DaemonFCso it was really more like $7,800 + tax by the time I got done dealing with Mike Anderson Dodge.Oct 11 14:54
DaemonFCWhat an awful deal.Oct 11 14:55
DaemonFC:POct 11 14:55
DaemonFCI told her that I wouldn't feel right paying more than $4,000 for that car, and that's only because it was an '04.Oct 11 14:55
DaemonFCAge has a really high weight on the value of a car.Oct 11 14:56
DaemonFCI know not why.Oct 11 14:56
MinceRthe older it is, the more chances people had to damage it :>Oct 11 14:56
DaemonFCThere's this several year range where you get them cheap, and then after 25 years, the price goes up again.Oct 11 14:57
MinceReverything gets worseOct 11 14:57
DaemonFCbecause now it's a "classic car"Oct 11 14:57
DaemonFCMinceR, Not really.Oct 11 14:58
DaemonFCIn fact, some of these newer models have so much MANDATORY shit in them that I do not want.Oct 11 14:58

MinceRi mean a given car, once manufactured, always get worseOct 11 14:59
MinceRs/get/gets/Oct 11 14:59
DaemonFCThere's not much difference between a 2000 Impala and a new one. The body style changed a little bit and they have mandatory Onstar.Oct 11 14:59
DaemonFCand they get less reliable the newer you goOct 11 14:59
MinceRit gets worn, polluted, damaged, repaired, etc.Oct 11 14:59
DaemonFCThe car companies pay incentives for engineers to sit around figuring out how to make things $5 cheaper.Oct 11 15:00
MinceRpeople you don't know get their mitts all over it :>Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCEnough of that goes on, and your car starts having all kinds of reliability nightmares.Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCIt hasn't gotten any better in the last few years.Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCI feel better driving a used Crown Vic than some of what they sell new.Oct 11 15:00
DaemonFCLike, Ford will sell you a Focus now for like $20,000 by the time you get the one with the stuff that everyone wants on it.Oct 11 15:01
MinceRwell, if it got things like mandatory m$ and onstar, it might well be better than the newer _models_Oct 11 15:01
DaemonFCJust basic stuff like auto transmission.Oct 11 15:01
MinceRi mean if the newer models have themOct 11 15:01
DaemonFCand an engine that actually moves the carOct 11 15:01
MinceR:>Oct 11 15:01
DaemonFCI always tell people... If you want a car for 10 years, get a Focus. If you want a car for 20+ years, spring for the Taurus.Oct 11 15:02
DaemonFCIt's a much nicer car. Even the base model.Oct 11 15:02
DaemonFCAnd it's not that much more.Oct 11 15:03
MinceRis the usian Focus anything like the european Focus?Oct 11 15:03
DaemonFCYou'd think that when people are sitting around deciding to commit to a car payment, they'd want to enjoy another 14 years without one when the payments stop.Oct 11 15:03
DaemonFCI think it's more or less the same thing.Oct 11 15:03
DaemonFCI ran into an older guy at the gas station, MinceR. He had a 1992 Crown Vic. I asked him how it was treating him.Oct 11 15:05
DaemonFCHe said he had 392,000+ miles on it.Oct 11 15:05
DaemonFCI asked him what he did to it. He said "Bought it in 1992 and changed some fluids, filters, and some other minor things."Oct 11 15:06
DaemonFCI don't doubt that it's a 30+ year car.Oct 11 15:06
DaemonFCMinceR, It gets about the same gas mileage as my Taurus.Oct 11 15:07
DaemonFCI was watching the computer cycle through various data and it said I was averaging 20.2 mpg.Oct 11 15:07
DaemonFCI bet I could get that up when I go to tune it up here soon.Oct 11 15:07
DaemonFCIt gets better mileage than my grandmother's Cadillac.Oct 11 15:08
DaemonFCI was watching her drive her '04 around, and her computer says she was getting about 15 mpg.Oct 11 15:08
DaemonFCI need to go to Walmart today and get some turtle wax.Oct 11 15:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: something to take into account here.  Gizmos have weight.Oct 11 15:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: ie electric windows are heavier than manual and the list goes on.Oct 11 15:09
DaemonFCoiaohm, Yeah, that train track that sent the Taurus flying the other day.Oct 11 15:09
DaemonFCDidn't even bring the Crown Vic off the ground.Oct 11 15:10
DaemonFCNot an inch.Oct 11 15:10
oiaohmDaemonFC: it is where the weight is.Oct 11 15:10
DaemonFCIt's a much heavier car and the weight is distributed over a much larger area.Oct 11 15:10
DaemonFCIt handled alot better.Oct 11 15:11
DaemonFCoiaohm, What are they up to in Australia?Oct 11 15:12

MinceRi knowOct 11 21:22
_Goblinhaving said that....theres some "honesty to drm"....let me explainOct 11 21:23
_Goblina certain publisher released drm free ebooks....so far so good...Oct 11 21:23
_Goblinwhat they didn't mention was that when you ordered one "on the fly" it encoded the ebook with a set of characters that you wouldn't notice....Oct 11 21:24
_Goblinthese characters were intended to track that copy of the ebook as they were unique to that purchase.Oct 11 21:24
MinceRthat's watermarkingOct 11 21:24
MinceRand that can be removed tooOct 11 21:24
_Goblinyep....but done with say, an extra space after a full stop on a certain page..Oct 11 21:24
MinceRif a human can read it then a human can type it and a camera can capture itOct 11 21:25
MinceRregardless of what tricks the DRM weenies employ in their magic boxesOct 11 21:25
_Goblinit wasn't "traditional" watermarking and was impossible to detect unless you had two different copies of the same ebookOct 11 21:25
_Goblinit was a very nasty little system because the end-user was oblivious to any such watermark...this is the type of "DRM" which could be abused .Oct 11 21:26
MinceRat most it could be used to point out the source of some informationOct 11 21:27

MinceRand the "pirates"' response was dewatermarking toolsOct 11 21:28
_Goblinyep, but then a watermark done by say a varying number of spaces on a certain page to "encode" the purchaser details is almost impossible to remove, since you don't know where the "encoding" of the data is going to be....Oct 11 21:29

MinceRalso, there's another problem with using DRM or watermarking to protect privacy: certain entities who have a backdoor to the DRM or don't need to worry about being found out (via watermarking or otherwise) could violate the privacy of individualsOct 11 21:42
MinceRbut of course m$ doesn't care about the privacy of individualsOct 11 21:42

ThistleWebDRM from companies like Microsoft isn't about preventing piracy, it's about locking you into their platformsOct 11 21:44

DaemonFCDoes he expect me to give it to him for free?Oct 11 00:56
DaemonFCIf I can't get $800 out of it, I'll just give it to family so they can finish it off.Oct 11 00:56
DaemonFCIt has probably got a good 3-4 years left.Oct 11 00:56

DaemonFCI got my 1996 Crown Vic LX for $2,200, with full maintenance records.Oct 11 09:53
DaemonFCand it has 94,700 miles on itOct 11 09:53
DaemonFCThose dealerships really know how to fuck you, MinceR Oct 11 09:54
DaemonFCand after you pay them for all that, they figure out fees to add onto it.Oct 11 09:54
DaemonFCso it was really more like $7,800 + tax by the time I got done dealing with Mike Anderson Dodge.Oct 11 09:54
DaemonFCWhat an awful deal.Oct 11 09:54
DaemonFC:POct 11 09:55
DaemonFCI told her that I wouldn't feel right paying more than $4,000 for that car, and that's only because it was an '04.Oct 11 09:55
DaemonFCAge has a really high weight on the value of a car.Oct 11 09:56
DaemonFCI know not why.Oct 11 09:56
MinceRthe older it is, the more chances people had to damage it :>Oct 11 09:56
DaemonFCThere's this several year range where you get them cheap, and then after 25 years, the price goes up again.Oct 11 09:57
MinceReverything gets worseOct 11 09:57
DaemonFCbecause now it's a "classic car"Oct 11 09:57
DaemonFCMinceR, Not really.Oct 11 09:58
DaemonFCIn fact, some of these newer models have so much MANDATORY shit in them that I do not want.Oct 11 09:58
DaemonFCLike Microsoft and Onstar.Oct 11 09:58
MinceRi mean a given car, once manufactured, always get worseOct 11 09:59
MinceRs/get/gets/Oct 11 09:59
DaemonFCThere's not much difference between a 2000 Impala and a new one. The body style changed a little bit and they have mandatory Onstar.Oct 11 09:59
DaemonFCand they get less reliable the newer you goOct 11 09:59
MinceRit gets worn, polluted, damaged, repaired, etc.Oct 11 09:59
DaemonFCThe car companies pay incentives for engineers to sit around figuring out how to make things $5 cheaper.Oct 11 10:00
MinceRpeople you don't know get their mitts all over it :>Oct 11 10:00
DaemonFCEnough of that goes on, and your car starts having all kinds of reliability nightmares.Oct 11 10:00
DaemonFCIt hasn't gotten any better in the last few years.Oct 11 10:00
DaemonFCI feel better driving a used Crown Vic than some of what they sell new.Oct 11 10:00
DaemonFCLike, Ford will sell you a Focus now for like $20,000 by the time you get the one with the stuff that everyone wants on it.Oct 11 10:01
MinceRwell, if it got things like mandatory m$ and onstar, it might well be better than the newer _models_Oct 11 10:01
DaemonFCJust basic stuff like auto transmission.Oct 11 10:01
MinceRi mean if the newer models have themOct 11 10:01
DaemonFCand an engine that actually moves the carOct 11 10:01
MinceR:>Oct 11 10:01
DaemonFCI always tell people... If you want a car for 10 years, get a Focus. If you want a car for 20+ years, spring for the Taurus.Oct 11 10:02
DaemonFCIt's a much nicer car. Even the base model.Oct 11 10:02
DaemonFCAnd it's not that much more.Oct 11 10:02
MinceRis the usian Focus anything like the european Focus?Oct 11 10:03
DaemonFCYou'd think that when people are sitting around deciding to commit to a car payment, they'd want to enjoy another 14 years without one when the payments stop.Oct 11 10:03
DaemonFCI think it's more or less the same thing.Oct 11 10:03
DaemonFCI ran into an older guy at the gas station, MinceR. He had a 1992 Crown Vic. I asked him how it was treating him.Oct 11 10:05
DaemonFCHe said he had 392,000+ miles on it.Oct 11 10:05
DaemonFCI asked him what he did to it. He said "Bought it in 1992 and changed some fluids, filters, and some other minor things."Oct 11 10:06
DaemonFCI don't doubt that it's a 30+ year car.Oct 11 10:06
DaemonFCMinceR, It gets about the same gas mileage as my Taurus.Oct 11 10:07
DaemonFCI was watching the computer cycle through various data and it said I was averaging 20.2 mpg.Oct 11 10:07
DaemonFCI bet I could get that up when I go to tune it up here soon.Oct 11 10:07
DaemonFCIt gets better mileage than my grandmother's Cadillac.Oct 11 10:08
DaemonFCI was watching her drive her '04 around, and her computer says she was getting about 15 mpg.Oct 11 10:08
DaemonFCI need to go to Walmart today and get some turtle wax.Oct 11 10:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: something to take into account here.  Gizmos have weight.Oct 11 10:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: ie electric windows are heavier than manual and the list goes on.Oct 11 10:09
DaemonFCoiaohm, Yeah, that train track that sent the Taurus flying the other day.Oct 11 10:09
DaemonFCDidn't even bring the Crown Vic off the ground.Oct 11 10:10
DaemonFCNot an inch.Oct 11 10:10
oiaohmDaemonFC: it is where the weight is.Oct 11 10:10
DaemonFCIt's a much heavier car and the weight is distributed over a much larger area.Oct 11 10:10
DaemonFCIt handled alot better.Oct 11 10:11
DaemonFCoiaohm, What are they up to in Australia?Oct 11 10:12
DaemonFCSame clown cars they get in Europe?Oct 11 10:12

ThistleWebwhat kinda CPU does that fly have?Oct 11 16:30
MinceR:DOct 11 16:30
ThistleWebjust because it "can" compileOct 11 16:30
ThistleWebor encodeOct 11 16:30
MinceRyou can also have n pirates get together, bring n copies and use that to find and remove the watermarkOct 11 16:31
MinceRand of course you could break into the system that does the watermarking and get an unwatermarked copy :>Oct 11 16:32
MinceRor get random users' copiesOct 11 16:32

Sosumiwell, my pict on google+ is a owlOct 11 16:36
MinceRso it's possible that an owl would endorse products? :>Oct 11 16:36

MinceRor someone could use a picture of a ratOct 11 16:38

MinceR"tried it, was very tasty and nutritious!"Oct 11 16:38

ThistleWebahh, the secret ingredient at mcdonaldsOct 11 16:38
Sosumiand how can DRM solve privacy?Oct 11 16:39
ThistleWebit cantOct 11 16:39
Sosuminew M$ DRM, if you touch your computer, it'll turn offOct 11 16:39
Sosumionly available for surface pro and RTOct 11 16:40
MinceRit can'tOct 11 16:40
MinceRit has been proven theoretically and empirically over and overOct 11 16:40
Sosumiwell, ofc it can'tOct 11 16:40
MinceRyet the simpletons at MAFIAA, m$ and crApple keep forcing itOct 11 16:40
Sosumiit's not just MAFIAA, but also the organizations M$ and crApple belong toOct 11 16:41
Sosumilike business software alliance and alikesOct 11 16:41
Sosumiadd adobe there too and etc.Oct 11 16:41
MinceRalso, there's another problem with using DRM or watermarking to protect privacy: certain entities who have a backdoor to the DRM or don't need to worry about being found out (via watermarking or otherwise) could violate the privacy of individualsOct 11 16:42
MinceRbut of course m$ doesn't care about the privacy of individualsOct 11 16:42
MinceRyeah, m$ and crApple cronies and front groupsOct 11 16:42
Sosumiso in the end many of those companies act like cartelsOct 11 16:42
SosumiyepOct 11 16:42
ThistleWebDRM from companies like Microsoft isn't about preventing piracy, it's about locking you into their platformsOct 11 16:44
ThistleWebif you buys loads of stuff in their proprietary formats, it's gonna cost you more to switch to a different company next time, cos ya have to rebuy all your stuffOct 11 16:44
MinceRthere's thatOct 11 16:44
ThistleWebso it's cheaper just to stay with the same company, and upgradeOct 11 16:44
MinceRit's even cheaper to pirate :>Oct 11 16:45
MinceRthen again, if m$ manages to kill the personal computer, it might changeOct 11 16:45
MinceRbut i don't think they can do thatOct 11 16:45
MinceRtheir grip on computing is slippingOct 11 16:45

sebsebseb,but uhmm found out about something interestingOct 11 23:28
sebsebseboiaohm: how about a learning how to make robots workship aimed at kids using  Rassbery Pi's?  sounds good  too me, but the thing is if my much younger little brother will be interested or not hmmOct 11 23:28
sebsebseboiaohm: taster session, and then  a series of workshopsOct 11 23:29
sebsebsebfor those intresstedOct 11 23:29
sebsebseboiaohm: however the provitional dates are when I am going away, but  I don't drive personally anyway,  and the idea is for them to gowith their parant/sOct 11 23:30
sebsebseboiaohm: I have a feeling that may be able to get some interestOct 11 23:31
sebsebseb,but don't  know yetOct 11 23:31

sebsebseboiaohm: oh I still not connececte mine etcOct 11 23:37
sebsebsebhad a few months nowOct 11 23:37
sebsebseb,but yeah there's quite a bit of interest in them from Linux people in the city near meOct 11 23:37
sebsebseband so onOct 11 23:37
oiaohmsebsebseb: those boards connect to all stock Rassbery piOct 11 23:37
sebsebseboiaohm: now then who would take him to this thing, my Mum yeah possiblyOct 11 23:38
sebsebsebmy older brother maybeOct 11 23:38
sebsebseband well both of them aren't really that technical, more so my MumOct 11 23:38
sebsebsebso  could do the good too, going to this thing as well :dOct 11 23:38
sebsebsebcoud do them, aboveOct 11 23:38

sebsebseboiaohm: right okOct 11 23:50
oiaohmsebsebseb: the not really techical normally rules out starting straight with Pi or manual build.Oct 11 23:56
oiaohmsebsebseb: other thing to consier is get the toughest built one you can.   Why they will crash it.Oct 11 23:57
