DaemonFCDidn't AOL spend over $100 million to buy Nullsoft in the late 90s?Jan 19 00:50
DaemonFCSo they lost most of their money in absolute terms, and all of more than all of their money when you adjust for inflation.Jan 19 00:51
DaemonFC*all or more than allJan 19 00:51
DaemonFC"Recall that AOL paid some $80 million for Nullsoft, owner of Winamp and Shoutcast, in 1999."Jan 19 00:51
DaemonFCahhhJan 19 00:51
DaemonFCI recall that due to Winamp's design, it was impossible for them to distribute it as a 64-bit application.Jan 19 00:53
DaemonFCIf they did that, then all of the binary-only plugins would break in the 64-bit version.Jan 19 00:54
DaemonFCThey couldn't recompile the plugins because most of them are proprietary and from other companies. Some were proprietary and created by companies and people that went out of business or no longer maintain them.Jan 19 00:55

DaemonFCSome people wonder why the FBI doesn't just instruct Windows zombie malware to uninstall itself when they take over a Windows botnet.Jan 19 09:47
DaemonFCThey tried doing it in the lab, and 10% of the Windows machines crashed instead.Jan 19 09:47
DaemonFCI would say that they could keep the Windows malware installed and use it to spy on the Windows users, but Windows already has government backdoors from the NSA, so they probably don't need anything that Microsoft hasn't already provided them with.Jan 19 09:47

DaemonFCZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 19 09:52
DaemonFCWindows and Mac OS aren't. If that's not bad enough, the only compiler you can build Mozilla software with on Windows is Microsoft Visual Studio, and it comes linked against proprietary runtime dlls from Microsoft on Windows as well. Jan 19 09:52
DaemonFCSo, the compiler could inject something nasty, and so could the runtimes it relies on. Even if they don't, Windows could monitor what's going on in Firefox.Jan 19 09:52
DaemonFCIf the compiler and runtime libraries aren't bad enough, Microsoft also slips in insecure software that malware targets, called ".NET Framework Assistant" and "Silverlight" without the user's permission.Jan 19 09:52
DaemonFCYou can disable those. They're in the extensions and plugins list.Jan 19 09:52

cubezzznot sure why X got so complex... I guess it was because so many people contributed to itJan 21 14:12
MinceRpart of it was that it wanted to push a lot of the work to the x serverJan 21 14:15
MinceRso they have a ton of graphics primitivesJan 21 14:15
MinceR(that are almost unused nowadays)Jan 21 14:15

MinceRthe interaction of many components also contributes to the complexityJan 21 14:16

Sosumibalmer's 2 problemsJan 21 16:22
Sosumilinux and an oversized pepper = windowsJan 21 16:23
MinceRi don't think peppers deserved thatJan 21 16:24
MinceR(or linux)Jan 21 16:24
Sosumijust a pick from 4chanJan 21 16:24
Sosumithat I found funJan 21 16:24
DaemonFCWell, I actually kind of liked Windows 2000 and XP, for the time. Jan 21 16:35
DaemonFCThey really screwed up Vista and the train wreck kept going.Jan 21 16:35
DaemonFCPeople fled back to XP, which was aging poorly.Jan 21 16:35
DaemonFCNow there's really nowhere to go.Jan 21 16:35
cubezzznowhere to go?Jan 21 16:36
cubezzzthere's tons of choicesJan 21 16:36
DaemonFCXP is nearly EOL and a lot of hardware has no XP drivers, and it has a RAM limit that is well below what modern systems come with.Jan 21 16:36
DaemonFCI mean, within the Windows "family".Jan 21 16:36
iophkpeople railed against XP when it came out.  The UI was 'Fisher-Price' with C.PU-killing eye candyJan 21 16:36
cubezzzrightJan 21 16:36
cubezzzI remember thatJan 21 16:36
DaemonFCWell, I kind of liked the theming engine.Jan 21 16:36
DaemonFCThe problem was that the themes had to be signed.Jan 21 16:37
iophkThe obvious place to go now would be XFCE, if there are no legacy apps that won't run under WINEJan 21 16:37
DaemonFCSo you had to crack the theming dll to install themes that Microsoft didn't provide.Jan 21 16:37
DaemonFCThere were some excellent third party themes.Jan 21 16:37
cubezzzahem, no source code :)Jan 21 16:37
MinceRxfce ftwJan 21 16:37
DaemonFCI used the Water Color theme on XP for most of the time that I used it.Jan 21 16:38
DaemonFCThe one that looked like the theme for "Whistler".Jan 21 16:38
MinceRi used silver or winblows classic with default colorsJan 21 16:38
DaemonFCSilver was the only one that looked good out of the ones installed by default.Jan 21 16:38
DaemonFCI hated the blue and green ones.Jan 21 16:38
DaemonFCThe Zune theme actually looked pretty good.Jan 21 16:39
cubezzzKDE ended up with "cpu killing eye candy" alsoJan 21 16:39
cubezzzbut you can turn most of it offJan 21 16:39
DaemonFCWell, KDE's is not very heavy.Jan 21 16:39
DaemonFCThe 4.11/4.12 releases really got the memory usage of KDE under control, finally.Jan 21 16:39
iophkKDE 3.5x was good.Jan 21 16:39
MinceRkde ended up with bling instead of reliabilityJan 21 16:39
iophk4.x needs to much mouse-travel to get anything done.Jan 21 16:39
DaemonFCEarlier releases of KDE 4 has kwin using well over 150 MB of RAM and Akonadi sitting there using hundreds.Jan 21 16:40
iophkThat new application menu is a deal-breakerJan 21 16:40
DaemonFCThose were the two big memory pigs of KDE, but that's under control now.Jan 21 16:40
DaemonFCJust in time for them to end of life KDE 4Jan 21 16:40
MinceR"4.x is too good, got to release 5.0"?Jan 21 16:40
DaemonFCI'm planning on installing a long term support distribution to keep KDE 4.Jan 21 16:40
DaemonFCI haven't used KDE 5 yet because there's no test releases or anything so far. I can't say for sure it will be bad, but the Fedora KDE people are basically saying to brace yourself.Jan 21 16:41
cubezzzsome of the KDE 1.0 folks left KDEJan 21 16:41
DaemonFCI'll try KDE 5, but if I don't like it I'll be switching from Fedora.Jan 21 16:41
DaemonFCPossibly to CentOS 7 or something, with KDE.Jan 21 16:41
cubezzzso this discussion gives me dejavu :)Jan 21 16:41
DaemonFCRight now I have KDE 4.12.1.Jan 21 16:43
DaemonFCI'd like it if Fedora Legacy was still around.Jan 21 16:43
DaemonFCIf you like your Fedora, you can keep it!Jan 21 16:43
DaemonFC;)Jan 21 16:43
cubezzzI did keep itJan 21 16:43
cubezzzone of my machines runs fc1 :)Jan 21 16:43
DaemonFCNow, there's nowhere to go for long term support.Jan 21 16:43
DaemonFCYou have until the second release from the one you use, plus one month.Jan 21 16:44
DaemonFCSo, that works out to be somewhere between 13 and 15 months of support.Jan 21 16:44
cubezzzdownload all the source...Jan 21 16:44
DaemonFCDepending on whether there are delays in the next versions.Jan 21 16:44
MinceRi didn't keep my fedoraJan 21 16:45
MinceRi replaced it with crunchbang.Jan 21 16:45
DaemonFCI used one of the Fedoras for quite some time because of Legacy.Jan 21 16:45
cubezzzI wrote about Kontour, now I can't even remember what it wasJan 21 16:45
DaemonFCCan't remember which one. It was the one before SELinux was introduced.Jan 21 16:45
DaemonFCThe quality went to hell for a while after that.Jan 21 16:46
cubezzzoh yeah, vector drawing programJan 21 16:46
cubezzzmaybe that was KDE 2 era? Jan 21 16:48
DaemonFCThe quality of the KDE 4 series is pretty good lately. I don't know why it's time for more disruptive changes.Jan 21 16:49
DaemonFCIt's like GNOME and KDE both wait until everything is basically working right, and then they smash it all and start over.Jan 21 16:50
DaemonFCJamie Zawinski pointed that out when GNOME stopped working on GNOME 1 and went to GNOME 2.Jan 21 16:50
DaemonFCHe said that they started closing all their bug reports on GNOME 1 because it wasn't supported anymore.Jan 21 16:50
cubezzzthat always happensJan 21 16:51
DaemonFCHe said he suspects it's because building programs is more fun than trying to fix the bugs.Jan 21 16:51
DaemonFCSo when there's nothing left to do but fix bugs, they start over from scratch.Jan 21 16:51
cubezzzI fixed some KDE 3.5.X era bugs but there was no where to send the fixesJan 21 16:51
DaemonFCThere's the international team of developers called Timothy Pearson that works on Trinity. :)Jan 21 16:51
MinceRjwz also said a lot of stupid shit tooJan 21 16:52
Sosumixp was good?Jan 21 16:52
MinceRnoJan 21 16:52
Sosumilike xp and 200Jan 21 16:52
Sosumi*2000Jan 21 16:52
DaemonFCMinceR: He switched to Mac OS because "Linux has issues", and then he started blogging about Mac OS problems more frequently than he blogged about "Linux problems" before.Jan 21 16:52
SosumilolJan 21 16:52
DaemonFCAnd there was no way for him to fix the Mac OS ones because it's not open source.Jan 21 16:53
MinceRDaemonFC: but he didn't get the clue, did he?Jan 21 16:53
DaemonFCSo he reports them to Apple and then there's a new release that still does the thing he complained about.Jan 21 16:53
MinceRalso, it isn't a bad idea to general to start (more or less) over from time to time, but not by throwing out the stable version, but by continuing to support itJan 21 16:53
DaemonFCApparently not...Jan 21 16:53
Sosumithose things were total junk, even worse than vistaJan 21 16:53
MinceRalso, the newer versions should be better than the old ones, not worseJan 21 16:53
MinceR(i'm looking at you, gnome and kde)Jan 21 16:53
MinceRs/to gen/in gen/Jan 21 16:53
cubezzzthat sounds like Miguel de IcazaJan 21 16:54
DaemonFCKDE 4.12 is better than KDE 3.5Jan 21 16:54
MinceRis it?Jan 21 16:54
Sosumithanks to some internet crap installing without giving you prompts or anything at allJan 21 16:54
DaemonFCBut, it took them like six years to get here.Jan 21 16:54
DaemonFCSo, was it worth it? Jan 21 16:54
DaemonFCAnd that was 6 years where people had to deal with something that was not as good as KDE 3.5.Jan 21 16:54
MinceRcan kwin run without compositing without glitching all over the place now?Jan 21 16:54
DaemonFCSure, but the glitching is probably a problem with your graphics drivers.Jan 21 16:55
MinceRdid kde become less monolithic since early 4.x?Jan 21 16:55
Sosumiat least vista tried to intruduce something similar to what we have on unix which was the need to escalate the privilege in order to install stuffJan 21 16:55
MinceRstrange, other wm-s didn't have such problemsJan 21 16:55
DaemonFCFor some reason, the radeon and nouveau drivers both disable anti-tearing in EXA.Jan 21 16:55
DaemonFCYou need to override that.Jan 21 16:55
MinceRearlier kwin didn't have them eitherJan 21 16:55
Sosumiaka UACJan 21 16:55
DaemonFCMinceR: Not really. They said that was a goal, but installing most KDE programs brings in most of KDE.Jan 21 16:56
DaemonFCOnce you have the KDE libraries, you've got more than half of KDE installed anyway.Jan 21 16:56
MinceRyeah, but i'm not running more than half of KDEJan 21 16:57
MinceRbig difference.Jan 21 16:57
MinceRalso, i might not like all of plasma, for example.Jan 21 16:57
MinceRbtw, can kwin render the root window with compositing now if plasma isn't running?Jan 21 16:58
MinceRor is it still the old black stuff?Jan 21 16:58
DaemonFCI'm not sure. I've never used it outside of KDE.Jan 21 17:01
DaemonFCI know that the kwin developer was running Unity 2d with kwin at one point, when Unity 2d still existed.Jan 21 17:02
DaemonFCJust to show off kwin running a different desktop, I believe.Jan 21 17:02
DaemonFC St. Leigh of the Captchas says:Jan 21 17:03
DaemonFCCheney? Jan 21 17:03
DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 21 17:03
DaemonFCDarth Vader.Jan 21 17:03

DaemonFCMost sites that set up a paywall immediately cease being relevant. A few of them get away with it, but most of them just lose 98% of their users.Jan 21 22:55
DaemonFCThe Wall Street Journal might get away with it because they target rich people have have money to throw at them and don't see $20 a month or whatever it is as a huge amount of money. I don't see things working out for most sites that do that, because nobody is going to pay $20 a month or even $2 a month to use every website they navigate to. So, yes, you can erect a paywall, but it's probably going to cost you more money in the end than acceptingJan 21 22:55
DaemonFCthe fact that about 1 in every 7-8 users is going to block your ads.Jan 21 22:55
DaemonFCAnd when you make technically savvy users angry at you, they declare war, and you lose anyway.Jan 21 22:55
DaemonFCSo when they threaten to do this, it's basically an empty threat. They're saying that to spite you, they're going to shoot themselves. Jan 21 22:55
DaemonFCI say "Go ahead. Get on with it.". Jan 21 22:56
DaemonFC Laz says:Jan 21 23:00
DaemonFC"If they're really a sovereign state, that means that they're liable for mounting their own defense."Jan 21 23:00
DaemonFCI'd bet that's what your position would have been regarding the British prior to Pearl Harbor and the Nazis declaring war against the US. Jan 21 23:00

DaemonFCNo, but it was obvious that the Axis was never going to stop. Even if they did achieve all of their objectives, they would have turned on each other. And they had credible military capabilities that were modern at the time.Jan 21 23:00
DaemonFCSo, you're basically talking about a completely different situation. It's hard to see the United States, Europe, or Asia, being invaded by a bunch of smelly people with diapers on their heads, with a couple of Soviet T-72 tanks. Jan 21 23:00

DaemonFCschestowitz__: My aunt Karen probably paid close to half a million dollars in Social Security tax.Jan 22 21:45
DaemonFCThen she died at 57 in a car crash last year. They wouldn't even pay the stinking $200 death benefit because her daughters were over 18.Jan 22 21:45
DaemonFCSocial Security is the biggest scam ever. It's great if you're one of the people that lives long enough to collect on it for long enough to get your money back.Jan 22 21:46
DaemonFCMost people don't,Jan 22 21:46
DaemonFCThe working poor usually don't even live to be 70.Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCMany of them don't even get their first check.Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCYou can't tell me that the system is insolvent.Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCSo many people die and get nothing or way less than they paid in.Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCSomething's wrong here, big time.Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCThe rich collect it for 30-40 years, and they get Medicare too!Jan 22 21:48
DaemonFCIt's an upwards redistribution of wealth is what it is.Jan 22 21:48
DaemonFCYou're paying so that you can die before you collect and get stuffed into a cheap pine box.Jan 22 21:49
DaemonFCThen the rich people get your money and go golfing.Jan 22 21:49
DaemonFCThey're not talking about shutting it down. They'll never shut it down. What they'll do is jack up the retirement age so that even fewer poor people get some checks back out of it.Jan 22 21:50
DaemonFCBefore Reagan fucked with it, you could retire at age 62 with full benefits.Jan 22 21:51
DaemonFCThen it was 65 for my parents.Jan 22 21:51
DaemonFCFor me it's 67.Jan 22 21:51
DaemonFCWell, Obamacare probably increases the chance that I'll live to see 67.Jan 22 21:52
DaemonFCMy insurance has to give me a few benefits they never did before.Jan 22 21:52
DaemonFCI get one free wellness visit and some health screenings when I go in for that.Jan 22 21:53
DaemonFCI never used to get that.Jan 22 21:53
DaemonFCFuck it. If they're paying for it, I'm going.Jan 22 21:53
DaemonFCI know what it's really about though. The drug companies probably wanted it so that doctors can say you have high blood pressure and cholesterol and shit, and put you on more drugs.Jan 22 21:54
DaemonFCBut, it's good to do anyway. If you have some major illness, it's better to catch it now than to let it progress.Jan 22 21:55
DaemonFCschestowitz__: I had them CC my bloodwork to my psychiatrist. He said he wanted a CBC anyway the next time I went in.Jan 22 21:56
DaemonFCThis way it's free. No reason to do the same test all over again in three days and pay for the lab work.Jan 22 21:56
DaemonFCThe electronic health records were supposed to deduplicate that kind of stuff, but they don't.Jan 22 21:57
DaemonFCYou still have to watch out or they'll gladly run the same test twice and bill you again. :)Jan 22 21:57
schestowitz__[21:45] <DaemonFC> schestowitz__: My aunt Karen probably paid close to half a million dollars in Social Security tax.Jan 22 22:01
schestowitz__is that for unemployment and health?Jan 22 22:01
schestowitz__Here we pay about 20% of the wage towards all sorts of deductions, but the system here generally works better than the US, with not many who are homeless, not many guns, etc.Jan 22 22:02
DaemonFCNo, that's for Disability, Old Age, Survivors.Jan 22 22:02
DaemonFCYou pay like 6.4% of your pay up to $113,000 to Social Security.,Jan 22 22:02
DaemonFCYour employer matches it.Jan 22 22:02
DaemonFCIf you're self employed, you pay both parts.Jan 22 22:03
DaemonFCThen there's a separate tax for Medicare.Jan 22 22:03
DaemonFCYour employer pays the state a tax based on total number of employees and their layoff and unjustified termination history.Jan 22 22:04
DaemonFCThat goes to the unemployment insurance fund.Jan 22 22:04
schestowitz__wowJan 22 22:04
DaemonFCSo, if your employer has a layoff, you get benefits. If they fire you, you have to prove it was unjustified in front of an arbitrator.Jan 22 22:04
DaemonFCYour employer sends someone to fight your unemployment case.Jan 22 22:04

DaemonFCAnd you pay all the usual taxes on it.Jan 22 22:06
DaemonFCSo, more like $250-$260 a week when they're done with you.Jan 22 22:06

DaemonFCIndiana doesn't.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCThey don't do drug tests for it in Indiana.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCThat's working its way through the court system right now. Some federal courts found it constitutional, some found it unconstitutional.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCIt'll end up in the Supreme Court eventually.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCThere's no such thing as a jobseeker's benefit, or whatever you call it in the UK.Jan 22 22:08
DaemonFCI think I got the right term.Jan 22 22:08
DaemonFCunless you live in CaliforniaJan 22 22:08
DaemonFCthen you have to sign a form stating that they can dock your Social Security benefits when you get to retirement age.Jan 22 22:08
DaemonFCThere's a very minimal safety net in the US for the unemployed, and you have to have been employed to be covered by it.Jan 22 22:09
DaemonFCAnd it doesn't pay very much, and it's very easy to lose.Jan 22 22:09
DaemonFCDemocrats basically want to keep it as is, Republicans claim that $1,000 a month is going to discourage people from finding work.Jan 22 22:10
DaemonFCThere doesn't really exist a place in the United States where you can live on $1,000 a month unless you're getting food stamps and rent assistance, and that's mostly impossible unless you're elderly, disabled, or have kids.Jan 22 22:10
DaemonFCThe cheapest rent for a one bedroom apartment in the cheapest parts of Indiana averages $500 a month without utilities included.Jan 22 22:11
DaemonFCSo half your income is already gone, and you aren't even buying food or keeping the heat and lights on.Jan 22 22:12
DaemonFCRepublicans call this way of living "giving someone a hammock".Jan 22 22:12
DaemonFCI understand not making unemployment comfortable, but $1,000 a month is basically torture.Jan 22 22:13
DaemonFCbut, you have to be one of the "lucky" unemployed to qualify for thatJan 22 22:13
DaemonFCmost get nothingJan 22 22:13
DaemonFCA modest standard of living for one adult in the cheapest part of the state of Indiana requires about $1,400 a month.Jan 22 22:14

DaemonFC"Yeah, it's good, for the rich. You live on thinking there would be a pension, golf and ****, like the stuff hollywood shows you, but you never get your pension. The rich gamble with it and pollute your food so you'll die early enough to never receive post-work entitlement." Jan 23 00:03

DaemonFCEven if you're one of the lucky ones that has health insurance that negotiated slightly less obscene prices and then hands you a bill for a typical copay percentage of that, it adds up fast.Jan 23 00:18
DaemonFCJust ask that dude in California that had to have his appendix removed, who had typical health insurance, got handed a bill for over $50,000, submitted it to his insurance company, and ended up owing the hospital over $11,000 anyway.Jan 23 00:18
DaemonFCWell, at a Walmart-style job, it's not even worth trying to pay the bill, whether it's $11,000 or $50,000. The difference is whether it would take you 20 years or 100 years. You can't really be mad at people who just hang up on medical bill collectors over stuff like this. What else is there for them to do?Jan 23 00:18
DaemonFCLet them sue you if they want to. The judge probably won't give you a worse deal than they will. Lots of times, before they sue, they'll usually offer to settle for like 10 cents on the dollar or less. Jan 23 00:18
DaemonFCThat's actually what you have to do with hospital bills.Jan 23 00:19
DaemonFCWait until they charge it off, sell it to debt collectors, and get real close to suing you.Jan 23 00:20
DaemonFCThe debt collectors will eventually offer some kind of a settlement.Jan 23 00:20

DaemonFCThe cost for the part alone is about $200, and that's before the shop marks it up and calculates labor.Jan 23 19:11

DaemonFCNot Auto Zone or Advance Auto Parts.Jan 23 19:14
DaemonFCAuto Zone and Advance will sell you a tensioner for about $40, while NAPA's are about $65-70.Jan 23 19:15
DaemonFCBut the quality is much better.Jan 23 19:15
DaemonFCSame with the idler pulley. About $30 at Advance and Auto Zone, and about $50-60 at NAPA.Jan 23 19:15
DaemonFCThe ones at NAPA are pretty similar to an OEM part, but the ones at Auto Zone and Advance are made out of plastic.Jan 23 19:16
DaemonFCThey'll work for a little while. 30,000-40,000 miles, and then they'll go bad again.Jan 23 19:16
DaemonFCIf you've got a really old car that you're just trying to get another year or two out of it, go for the cheap part I guess.Jan 23 19:16
DaemonFCIf they take the belt off and find out that the tensioner or idler are bad, just have them replace both and the belt. Most of the cost is the labor. They have to put the system back together either way, so you may as well potentially avoid having them take it apart again.Jan 23 19:18

schestowitz__"Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__I was thinking along the same lines — that Edward Snowden’s leaks (by the way, they’re not just his anymore, as anonymous people from the NSA reportedly leak more and more documents to be published under his name for their safety) can at some stage show encryption undermined at more levels (hardware level, or even kernel level). We already know that encryption was undermined at RSA and NIST by NSA moles, using bribes too. We Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__also know that Linux (kernel) developers recently revised random number generators, after they had found a weakness.Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__Several state officials (in 6 state at the very least) now work to stop the NSA locally. Some call for a ban on companies that facilitate the NSA (that would include Red Hat), under the premise that they are complicit in crime. I am not kidding, watch the news this week (I don’t want to paste links here as the last time I did so my comment took half a day to appear).Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__Lastly, there are numerous E-mails sent from and to Red Hat. These further validated my suspicions.Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__I saw a lot of personal attacks (trying to discredit me or even remove links to my analyses). I even heard the usual personal attacks against Sam Varghese (which I expected from Red Hat because he dares to do real journalism, i.e. journalism that companies don’t like).Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__Trusting Red Hat should be based on its record, not emotional leanings and faith.Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__Don’t get me wrong. I was not offended by you and you oughn’t be offended by my response. I am used to this type of divisive treatment (people trying to ostracise me) since the days I criticised Novell — only to be proven right throughout and at the very end (Novell gave its patents to Linux foes).Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__I hope you will wait patiently for more information and assess the facts based on their merit. Don’t rely purely/solely on what you read in OpenSource.com (Red Hat). I saw Novell doing its self-delutional spiel (IP “peace of mind”) and fortuntely, at the end, Novell did not find enough fools to sell its lies to.Jan 24 20:04
schestowitz__I have been frank in my analysis of Red Hat (on patents, build process, etc.) and if you want links for particular bits of my claims, just ask. I have a repository of tens of thousands of links I collect while researching. Sometimes people refuse to accept even a well-sourced claim because of cognitive disonance — something I’ve had a lot of experience with when dealing with Microsoft spinners.Jan 24 20:04

DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 25 18:20
DaemonFCWell, Netflix is malicious in a lot of ways. It requires proprietary software and it is trying to ram Digital Restrictions Malware into an "internet standard". Google, Microsoft, and Apple are assisting them in their attack on the open web. Use Firefox.Jan 25 18:20
DaemonFCThe only good thing that Netflix is doing is fighting the court ruling that Verizon got, that effectively strikes down network neutrality. That's for their own selfish purposes. They know that it is a matter of time before your ISP extorts more money out of Netflix to excuse their traffic from your data caps. When the ISPs can do this, it means that they're motivated to set your caps as low as possible.Jan 25 18:20
DaemonFCComcast doesn't like internet-only customers that use someone else's VOD service because it's only $10 a month. They're probably going to end this arrangement unless we can get the FCC to declare that Comcast and other ISPs are "common carriers".Jan 25 18:20
DaemonFCOne of two things will happen to Netflix users if the Verizon ruling is allowed to stand. Either Comcast will add another $20-30 a month to your bill, or Netflix will pay to exempt themselves and the $10 a month fee for Netflix will be $40-50. Does anyone really want this? Jan 25 18:20

DaemonFCThey act like expanding healthcare is going to have Medicaid buying Cadillacs for people. If anyone would like to look at exactly how Medicaid works, you'll see that they make sure you're so poor that they do everything other than pulling the wedding ring off your finger and sending out a car hauler. You have to spend yourself down to where you have nothing left to speak of that month before Medicaid pays one thin dime. The only way people will Jan 25 18:57

schestowitzRicardo,Jan 25 20:37
schestowitzIt is _not_ purely speculative. If you think that it is, then you must not have paid close enough attention.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitzI have been spending at least 2 hours per day since 2012 reading about the NSA. I knew what Snowden showed even before it was publicly known and I spoke about it with RMS on numerous occasions (he came to the UK to meet Assange and then myself, focusing on mass surveillance).Jan 25 20:37
schestowitzThe truth of the matter just needs a little digging because the corporate press is not helping the general public find it out, just like it knowingly 'buried' a captured agent in Iran for several years (this leaked out in November).Jan 25 20:37
schestowitzSimilarly, GNU/Linux sites did a very poor job covering (if at all) what happened in recent months regarding Linux. Let me summarise some facts (without links, as I don't want to be put in the moderation queue again):Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- Torvalds' father said that the NSA had approached his son regarding back doors.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- Linux had a back door added to it about a decade ago. It got removed quickly afterwards and it wasn't known who had added it. There was press coverage about it, but it was scarce.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- RSA received a bribe from the NSA to promote security standards with back doors.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- NIST and others had NSA moles and bogus (corrupt) peer review process to help usher in security standards with back doors.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- NSA is a large Red Hat client.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- The NSA sends patches to Red Hat, which in turn sends those for Linus Torvalds to put in Linux.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz(the above two are now confirmed to me by Red Hat staff)Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- BSD does not trust hardware-level random number generators, suspecting -- quite rightly given the NSA's track record -- that it has too low an entropy.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitz- Several top-level Linux developers found vulnerabilities in Linux random number generation. They quietly (without much press coverage anywhere) addressed the issue (raising the entropy) a few months back. Only the latest kernel release has the fixes applied AFAIK (I don't know if Greg K-H backported any of it because coverage is too scarce). To lay out the magnitude of this issue, it compromises SSL, PGP, etc. (pretty much everythingJan 25 20:37
schestowitzwith encryption, even passwords) not just at client side (desktop, tablet, smartphone) but also the server side (i.e. the Internet). This is huge! But the media hasn't covered it.Jan 25 20:37
schestowitzSuffice to say, Red Hat has not done anything to convince me I was wrong. Instead, I notice that Red Hat staff is stalking me in LinkedIn and I see my article cited in several news sites which wrote about the issue in several languages (3 articles in Google News are in Spanish).Jan 25 20:37
schestowitzIf you found holes in the above statements or if you want links attached, please request them and I will provide citations. I wrote about everything before, even years ago (NSA involvement in SLE* and RHEL I covered around 2007 or 2008).Jan 25 20:37
schestowitzI am frustrated to see people turning against the messenger rather than the message. I see a lot of the same done to Sam Varghese. We are making ourselves more vulnerable by refusing to listen to what seems uncomfortable.Jan 25 20:37

DaemonFCI don't know if Medicaid enrollment is a good thing or not.Jan 25 22:54
DaemonFCIt has a radically destructive way of forcing people to dispose of their liquid assets in ways that may not be wise.Jan 25 22:55
DaemonFCOn the other hand, most hospitals and nursing homes will take Medicaid patients when they might not do much for people with no insurance at all.Jan 25 22:55
DaemonFCI think it's a bad policy to force people to be broke all the time.Jan 25 22:56
DaemonFCAs in literally nothing.Jan 25 22:56
DaemonFCI think that they should let people set aside $1,000 or so that can't be counted as an asset.Jan 25 22:56
DaemonFCWhat do you do in an emergency?Jan 25 22:56
DaemonFCThe asset rules are really fucking dumb.Jan 25 22:57
DaemonFCLike, they'll let you have a car of any value that can't be counted (good) but you're not allowed to save up to buy a car (wtf?).Jan 25 22:57
DaemonFCSo to qualify for Medicaid, you have to keep the car that you had when you originally signed up going forever.Jan 25 22:58
DaemonFCIf you start saving to replace it with a different car when the car you have breaks down or rots away, they take your Medicaid away.Jan 25 22:58

DaemonFCSo they lost most of their money in absolute terms, and all of more than all of their money when you adjust for inflation.Jan 19 00:50

DaemonFCI recall that due to Winamp's design, it was impossible for them to distribute it as a 64-bit application.Jan 19 00:53
DaemonFCIf they did that, then all of the binary-only plugins would break in the 64-bit version.Jan 19 00:53
DaemonFCThey couldn't recompile the plugins because most of them are proprietary and from other companies. Some were proprietary and created by companies and people that went out of business or no longer maintain them.Jan 19 00:54

DaemonFCWindows and Mac OS aren't. If that's not bad enough, the only compiler you can build Mozilla software with on Windows is Microsoft Visual Studio, and it comes linked against proprietary runtime dlls from Microsoft on Windows as well. Jan 19 09:51
DaemonFCSo, the compiler could inject something nasty, and so could the runtimes it relies on. Even if they don't, Windows could monitor what's going on in Firefox.Jan 19 09:51
DaemonFCIf the compiler and runtime libraries aren't bad enough, Microsoft also slips in insecure software that malware targets, called ".NET Framework Assistant" and "Silverlight" without the user's permission.Jan 19 09:51
DaemonFCYou can disable those. They're in the extensions and plugins list.Jan 19 09:51

cubezzzand oh one more biggie.. :)Jan 21 13:33
cubezzzsome of the Xerox guys left Xerox and went to MicrosoftJan 21 13:33
cubezzzalso some DEC guys -> Microsoft alsoJan 21 13:34
cubezzzdefections occurred at a critical time, 1983Jan 21 13:35
cubezzzthe first really affordable GUI computers were things like the Amiga and Atari StJan 21 13:36

cubezzzand even more interesting, Xerox was under a Consent Decree!Jan 21 13:37
cubezzzso anyways, no one owns the GUI :)Jan 21 13:38
cubezzzthe think tank guys had Multics, and Suns and Vaxes... it was all extremely expensiveJan 21 13:48
cubezzzanyways, DEC, IBM and MIT all got together and the X Window System was inventedJan 21 13:53
cubezzzso we had Ultrix and 4.3BSD to run X on...Jan 21 13:54
cubezzzthis would be around 1986 or soJan 21 13:56
cubezzznormal people couldn't afford to buy a MicroVaxJan 21 13:56
cubezzzbut in the early 90's Yggdrasil Linux had managed to get X working on PC hardwareJan 21 13:58
cubezzzX was a pig, and early on a lot of *nix folks didn't bother running XJan 21 13:59

cubezzzXerox Star was better written, and ran a GUI in 1.5 megs of ramJan 21 14:01
MinceRX was far more powerful than Xerox StarJan 21 14:02
MinceR(still is)Jan 21 14:02
cubezzzsorry, I'm not really using correct terminologyJan 21 14:04
cubezzzI should say The 8010 Information System ran in 1.5 megsJan 21 14:05
cubezzzthe Xerox Star is hardware, and X is software :)Jan 21 14:05
Sosumicrapple also claims having invented the mouseJan 21 14:06
cubezzzI'm not really sure what Xerox called their OS to be honestJan 21 14:06
cubezzzI'm merely pointing out that the Xerox Star OS ran in less memory than XJan 21 14:07
cubezzznot saying it was "better" than XJan 21 14:07
MinceRyou also claimed that it was better writtenJan 21 14:08
Sosumiwhat was better written?Jan 21 14:08
Sosumiho, xerox star...Jan 21 14:08
cubezzzit's hard to compare, Xerox Star OS only ran on one computer where X ran on a bunch of different thingsJan 21 14:09
*iophk has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)Jan 21 14:09
MinceRX is also one of the most flexible windowing systems aroundJan 21 14:09
MinceRand it's networkableJan 21 14:09
cubezzzyes, well I'm an X programmer :)Jan 21 14:10
cubezzzthat's what I useJan 21 14:10
cubezzzit's just not the simplest thing to learnJan 21 14:10
cubezzzXerox PARC invented ethernet... so... you have to give them credit for itJan 21 14:11
cubezzznot sure why X got so complex... I guess it was because so many people contributed to itJan 21 14:11
MinceRpart of it was that it wanted to push a lot of the work to the x serverJan 21 14:14
MinceRso they have a ton of graphics primitivesJan 21 14:14
MinceR(that are almost unused nowadays)Jan 21 14:14
MinceRit's also very flexible, so it has to allow for a lot of things and has to allow a lot of the work to be done in other processes, by x clientsJan 21 14:15
MinceRwindow management, for exampleJan 21 14:15
MinceRthe interaction of many components also contributes to the complexityJan 21 14:15
cubezzztry to run X on 4 megs... even 16 megs and you'll see what I mean... it's a memory hog, relatively speakingJan 21 14:15
cubezzznowadays we have memory to burn, so it's not a problemJan 21 14:16
MinceRdunnoJan 21 14:16
MinceRi think i ran it on 32mbJan 21 14:16
MinceRand compared to winblows, it flied :>Jan 21 14:16
cubezzzas you said before, more features means more memory useJan 21 14:17
cubezzzearly X did run in 4 megs thoughJan 21 14:19
cubezzzQuasijarus (an offshoot of 4.3BSD) uses 16 megs and runs X okJan 21 14:22
cubezzztrue hardware independence, so yes X is very importantJan 21 14:27

Sosumibalmer's 2 problemsJan 21 16:21
Sosumilinux and an oversized pepper = windowsJan 21 16:23
MinceRi don't think peppers deserved thatJan 21 16:23
MinceR(or linux)Jan 21 16:23
Sosumijust a pick from 4chanJan 21 16:23
Sosumithat I found funJan 21 16:23
DaemonFCWell, I actually kind of liked Windows 2000 and XP, for the time. Jan 21 16:34
DaemonFCThey really screwed up Vista and the train wreck kept going.Jan 21 16:34
DaemonFCPeople fled back to XP, which was aging poorly.Jan 21 16:34
DaemonFCNow there's really nowhere to go.Jan 21 16:35
cubezzznowhere to go?Jan 21 16:35
cubezzzthere's tons of choicesJan 21 16:35
DaemonFCXP is nearly EOL and a lot of hardware has no XP drivers, and it has a RAM limit that is well below what modern systems come with.Jan 21 16:35
DaemonFCI mean, within the Windows "family".Jan 21 16:35
iophkpeople railed against XP when it came out.  The UI was 'Fisher-Price' with C.PU-killing eye candyJan 21 16:35
cubezzzrightJan 21 16:35
cubezzzI remember thatJan 21 16:35
DaemonFCWell, I kind of liked the theming engine.Jan 21 16:36
DaemonFCThe problem was that the themes had to be signed.Jan 21 16:36
iophkThe obvious place to go now would be XFCE, if there are no legacy apps that won't run under WINEJan 21 16:36
DaemonFCSo you had to crack the theming dll to install themes that Microsoft didn't provide.Jan 21 16:36
DaemonFCThere were some excellent third party themes.Jan 21 16:36
cubezzzahem, no source code :)Jan 21 16:36
MinceRxfce ftwJan 21 16:36
DaemonFCI used the Water Color theme on XP for most of the time that I used it.Jan 21 16:37
DaemonFCThe one that looked like the theme for "Whistler".Jan 21 16:37
MinceRi used silver or winblows classic with default colorsJan 21 16:37
DaemonFCSilver was the only one that looked good out of the ones installed by default.Jan 21 16:38
DaemonFCI hated the blue and green ones.Jan 21 16:38
DaemonFCThe Zune theme actually looked pretty good.Jan 21 16:38
cubezzzKDE ended up with "cpu killing eye candy" alsoJan 21 16:38
cubezzzbut you can turn most of it offJan 21 16:38
DaemonFCWell, KDE's is not very heavy.Jan 21 16:38
DaemonFCThe 4.11/4.12 releases really got the memory usage of KDE under control, finally.Jan 21 16:38
iophkKDE 3.5x was good.Jan 21 16:38
MinceRkde ended up with bling instead of reliabilityJan 21 16:38
iophk4.x needs to much mouse-travel to get anything done.Jan 21 16:39
DaemonFCEarlier releases of KDE 4 has kwin using well over 150 MB of RAM and Akonadi sitting there using hundreds.Jan 21 16:39
iophkThat new application menu is a deal-breakerJan 21 16:39
DaemonFCThose were the two big memory pigs of KDE, but that's under control now.Jan 21 16:39
DaemonFCJust in time for them to end of life KDE 4Jan 21 16:39
MinceR"4.x is too good, got to release 5.0"?Jan 21 16:39
DaemonFCI'm planning on installing a long term support distribution to keep KDE 4.Jan 21 16:39
DaemonFCI haven't used KDE 5 yet because there's no test releases or anything so far. I can't say for sure it will be bad, but the Fedora KDE people are basically saying to brace yourself.Jan 21 16:40
cubezzzsome of the KDE 1.0 folks left KDEJan 21 16:40
DaemonFCI'll try KDE 5, but if I don't like it I'll be switching from Fedora.Jan 21 16:40
DaemonFCPossibly to CentOS 7 or something, with KDE.Jan 21 16:40
cubezzzso this discussion gives me dejavu :)Jan 21 16:40
DaemonFCRight now I have KDE 4.12.1.Jan 21 16:42
DaemonFCI'd like it if Fedora Legacy was still around.Jan 21 16:42
DaemonFCIf you like your Fedora, you can keep it!Jan 21 16:42
DaemonFC;)Jan 21 16:42
cubezzzI did keep itJan 21 16:42
cubezzzone of my machines runs fc1 :)Jan 21 16:42
DaemonFCNow, there's nowhere to go for long term support.Jan 21 16:42
DaemonFCYou have until the second release from the one you use, plus one month.Jan 21 16:43
DaemonFCSo, that works out to be somewhere between 13 and 15 months of support.Jan 21 16:43
cubezzzdownload all the source...Jan 21 16:43
DaemonFCDepending on whether there are delays in the next versions.Jan 21 16:43
MinceRi didn't keep my fedoraJan 21 16:44
MinceRi replaced it with crunchbang.Jan 21 16:44
DaemonFCI used one of the Fedoras for quite some time because of Legacy.Jan 21 16:44
cubezzzI wrote about Kontour, now I can't even remember what it wasJan 21 16:44
DaemonFCCan't remember which one. It was the one before SELinux was introduced.Jan 21 16:45
DaemonFCThe quality went to hell for a while after that.Jan 21 16:45
cubezzzoh yeah, vector drawing programJan 21 16:45
cubezzzmaybe that was KDE 2 era? Jan 21 16:47
DaemonFCThe quality of the KDE 4 series is pretty good lately. I don't know why it's time for more disruptive changes.Jan 21 16:48
DaemonFCIt's like GNOME and KDE both wait until everything is basically working right, and then they smash it all and start over.Jan 21 16:49
DaemonFCJamie Zawinski pointed that out when GNOME stopped working on GNOME 1 and went to GNOME 2.Jan 21 16:49
DaemonFCHe said that they started closing all their bug reports on GNOME 1 because it wasn't supported anymore.Jan 21 16:50
cubezzzthat always happensJan 21 16:50
DaemonFCHe said he suspects it's because building programs is more fun than trying to fix the bugs.Jan 21 16:50
DaemonFCSo when there's nothing left to do but fix bugs, they start over from scratch.Jan 21 16:50
cubezzzI fixed some KDE 3.5.X era bugs but there was no where to send the fixesJan 21 16:50
DaemonFCThere's the international team of developers called Timothy Pearson that works on Trinity. :)Jan 21 16:51
MinceRjwz also said a lot of stupid shit tooJan 21 16:51
Sosumixp was good?Jan 21 16:51
MinceRnoJan 21 16:51
Sosumilike xp and 200Jan 21 16:52
Sosumi*2000Jan 21 16:52
DaemonFCMinceR: He switched to Mac OS because "Linux has issues", and then he started blogging about Mac OS problems more frequently than he blogged about "Linux problems" before.Jan 21 16:52
SosumilolJan 21 16:52
DaemonFCAnd there was no way for him to fix the Mac OS ones because it's not open source.Jan 21 16:52
MinceRDaemonFC: but he didn't get the clue, did he?Jan 21 16:52
DaemonFCSo he reports them to Apple and then there's a new release that still does the thing he complained about.Jan 21 16:52
MinceRalso, it isn't a bad idea to general to start (more or less) over from time to time, but not by throwing out the stable version, but by continuing to support itJan 21 16:52
DaemonFCApparently not...Jan 21 16:52
Sosumithose things were total junk, even worse than vistaJan 21 16:52
MinceRalso, the newer versions should be better than the old ones, not worseJan 21 16:52
MinceR(i'm looking at you, gnome and kde)Jan 21 16:52
MinceRs/to gen/in gen/Jan 21 16:53
cubezzzthat sounds like Miguel de IcazaJan 21 16:53
DaemonFCKDE 4.12 is better than KDE 3.5Jan 21 16:53
MinceRis it?Jan 21 16:53
Sosumithanks to some internet crap installing without giving you prompts or anything at allJan 21 16:53
DaemonFCBut, it took them like six years to get here.Jan 21 16:53
DaemonFCSo, was it worth it? Jan 21 16:53
DaemonFCAnd that was 6 years where people had to deal with something that was not as good as KDE 3.5.Jan 21 16:53
MinceRcan kwin run without compositing without glitching all over the place now?Jan 21 16:53
DaemonFCSure, but the glitching is probably a problem with your graphics drivers.Jan 21 16:54
MinceRdid kde become less monolithic since early 4.x?Jan 21 16:54
Sosumiat least vista tried to intruduce something similar to what we have on unix which was the need to escalate the privilege in order to install stuffJan 21 16:54
MinceRstrange, other wm-s didn't have such problemsJan 21 16:54
DaemonFCFor some reason, the radeon and nouveau drivers both disable anti-tearing in EXA.Jan 21 16:54
DaemonFCYou need to override that.Jan 21 16:54
MinceRearlier kwin didn't have them eitherJan 21 16:54
Sosumiaka UACJan 21 16:54
DaemonFCMinceR: Not really. They said that was a goal, but installing most KDE programs brings in most of KDE.Jan 21 16:55
DaemonFCOnce you have the KDE libraries, you've got more than half of KDE installed anyway.Jan 21 16:55
MinceRyeah, but i'm not running more than half of KDEJan 21 16:56
MinceRbig difference.Jan 21 16:56
MinceRalso, i might not like all of plasma, for example.Jan 21 16:56
MinceRbtw, can kwin render the root window with compositing now if plasma isn't running?Jan 21 16:57
MinceRor is it still the old black stuff?Jan 21 16:57
DaemonFCI'm not sure. I've never used it outside of KDE.Jan 21 17:01
DaemonFCI know that the kwin developer was running Unity 2d with kwin at one point, when Unity 2d still existed.Jan 21 17:01
DaemonFCJust to show off kwin running a different desktop, I believe.Jan 21 17:01
DaemonFC St. Leigh of the Captchas says:Jan 21 17:02
DaemonFCCheney? Jan 21 17:02
DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 21 17:02

DaemonFCI went ahead and paid my plate renewal fees for the year.Jan 21 18:56
DaemonFCMight as well take out a few bills.Jan 21 18:56
DaemonFC$47.05 for the year.Jan 21 18:58
DaemonFCI figured that I might as well take it out now even though it isn't due until April.Jan 21 18:58
DaemonFCThe governor is still talking about raising the fee to $155, so it's better to have the renewal done now in case the law changes by then.Jan 21 18:58

DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 21 22:54
DaemonFCMost sites that set up a paywall immediately cease being relevant. A few of them get away with it, but most of them just lose 98% of their users.Jan 21 22:54
DaemonFCThe Wall Street Journal might get away with it because they target rich people have have money to throw at them and don't see $20 a month or whatever it is as a huge amount of money. I don't see things working out for most sites that do that, because nobody is going to pay $20 a month or even $2 a month to use every website they navigate to. So, yes, you can erect a paywall, but it's probably going to cost you more money in the end than acceptingJan 21 22:54
DaemonFCthe fact that about 1 in every 7-8 users is going to block your ads.Jan 21 22:54
DaemonFCAnd when you make technically savvy users angry at you, they declare war, and you lose anyway.Jan 21 22:54
DaemonFCSo when they threaten to do this, it's basically an empty threat. They're saying that to spite you, they're going to shoot themselves. Jan 21 22:54
DaemonFCI say "Go ahead. Get on with it.". Jan 21 22:55
DaemonFC Laz says:Jan 21 22:59
DaemonFC"If they're really a sovereign state, that means that they're liable for mounting their own defense."Jan 21 22:59
DaemonFCI'd bet that's what your position would have been regarding the British prior to Pearl Harbor and the Nazis declaring war against the US. Jan 21 22:59
DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 21 22:59
DaemonFCNo, but it was obvious that the Axis was never going to stop. Even if they did achieve all of their objectives, they would have turned on each other. And they had credible military capabilities that were modern at the time.Jan 21 22:59
DaemonFCSo, you're basically talking about a completely different situation. It's hard to see the United States, Europe, or Asia, being invaded by a bunch of smelly people with diapers on their heads, with a couple of Soviet T-72 tanks. Jan 21 22:59

DaemonFCschestowitz__: My aunt Karen probably paid close to half a million dollars in Social Security tax.Jan 22 21:44
DaemonFCThen she died at 57 in a car crash last year. They wouldn't even pay the stinking $200 death benefit because her daughters were over 18.Jan 22 21:45
DaemonFCSocial Security is the biggest scam ever. It's great if you're one of the people that lives long enough to collect on it for long enough to get your money back.Jan 22 21:45
DaemonFCMost people don't,Jan 22 21:45
DaemonFCThe working poor usually don't even live to be 70.Jan 22 21:46
DaemonFCMany of them don't even get their first check.Jan 22 21:46
DaemonFCYou can't tell me that the system is insolvent.Jan 22 21:46
DaemonFCSo many people die and get nothing or way less than they paid in.Jan 22 21:46
DaemonFCSomething's wrong here, big time.Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCThe rich collect it for 30-40 years, and they get Medicare too!Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCIt's an upwards redistribution of wealth is what it is.Jan 22 21:47
DaemonFCYou're paying so that you can die before you collect and get stuffed into a cheap pine box.Jan 22 21:48
DaemonFCThen the rich people get your money and go golfing.Jan 22 21:48
DaemonFCThey're not talking about shutting it down. They'll never shut it down. What they'll do is jack up the retirement age so that even fewer poor people get some checks back out of it.Jan 22 21:49
DaemonFCBefore Reagan fucked with it, you could retire at age 62 with full benefits.Jan 22 21:50
DaemonFCThen it was 65 for my parents.Jan 22 21:50
DaemonFCFor me it's 67.Jan 22 21:50
DaemonFCWell, Obamacare probably increases the chance that I'll live to see 67.Jan 22 21:51
DaemonFCMy insurance has to give me a few benefits they never did before.Jan 22 21:51
DaemonFCI get one free wellness visit and some health screenings when I go in for that.Jan 22 21:52
DaemonFCI never used to get that.Jan 22 21:52
DaemonFCFuck it. If they're paying for it, I'm going.Jan 22 21:52
DaemonFCI know what it's really about though. The drug companies probably wanted it so that doctors can say you have high blood pressure and cholesterol and shit, and put you on more drugs.Jan 22 21:54
DaemonFCBut, it's good to do anyway. If you have some major illness, it's better to catch it now than to let it progress.Jan 22 21:54
DaemonFCschestowitz__: I had them CC my bloodwork to my psychiatrist. He said he wanted a CBC anyway the next time I went in.Jan 22 21:55
DaemonFCThis way it's free. No reason to do the same test all over again in three days and pay for the lab work.Jan 22 21:55
DaemonFCThe electronic health records were supposed to deduplicate that kind of stuff, but they don't.Jan 22 21:56
DaemonFCYou still have to watch out or they'll gladly run the same test twice and bill you again. :)Jan 22 21:57
schestowitz__[21:45] <DaemonFC> schestowitz__: My aunt Karen probably paid close to half a million dollars in Social Security tax.Jan 22 22:00
schestowitz__is that for unemployment and health?Jan 22 22:00
schestowitz__Here we pay about 20% of the wage towards all sorts of deductions, but the system here generally works better than the US, with not many who are homeless, not many guns, etc.Jan 22 22:01
DaemonFCNo, that's for Disability, Old Age, Survivors.Jan 22 22:01
DaemonFCYou pay like 6.4% of your pay up to $113,000 to Social Security.,Jan 22 22:01
DaemonFCYour employer matches it.Jan 22 22:02
DaemonFCIf you're self employed, you pay both parts.Jan 22 22:02
DaemonFCThen there's a separate tax for Medicare.Jan 22 22:02
DaemonFCYour employer pays the state a tax based on total number of employees and their layoff and unjustified termination history.Jan 22 22:03
DaemonFCThat goes to the unemployment insurance fund.Jan 22 22:03
schestowitz__wowJan 22 22:03
DaemonFCSo, if your employer has a layoff, you get benefits. If they fire you, you have to prove it was unjustified in front of an arbitrator.Jan 22 22:03
DaemonFCYour employer sends someone to fight your unemployment case.Jan 22 22:04

DaemonFCI forget how far they go back.Jan 22 22:04
DaemonFCBut the benefit is capped at like $325 a week.Jan 22 22:05
DaemonFCAnd you pay all the usual taxes on it.Jan 22 22:05
DaemonFCSo, more like $250-$260 a week when they're done with you.Jan 22 22:05
DaemonFCAnd it normally only goes on for 6 months. Then if you still don't have a job, it just stops.Jan 22 22:05

DaemonFCIt also gets cut off if you don't prove you've applied for at least three jobs every week.Jan 22 22:06
DaemonFCSome states also cut it off if you fail a drug test.Jan 22 22:06
DaemonFCIndiana doesn't.Jan 22 22:06
DaemonFCThey don't do drug tests for it in Indiana.Jan 22 22:06
DaemonFCThat's working its way through the court system right now. Some federal courts found it constitutional, some found it unconstitutional.Jan 22 22:06
DaemonFCIt'll end up in the Supreme Court eventually.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCThere's no such thing as a jobseeker's benefit, or whatever you call it in the UK.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCI think I got the right term.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCunless you live in CaliforniaJan 22 22:07
DaemonFCthen you have to sign a form stating that they can dock your Social Security benefits when you get to retirement age.Jan 22 22:07
DaemonFCThere's a very minimal safety net in the US for the unemployed, and you have to have been employed to be covered by it.Jan 22 22:08
DaemonFCAnd it doesn't pay very much, and it's very easy to lose.Jan 22 22:08
DaemonFCDemocrats basically want to keep it as is, Republicans claim that $1,000 a month is going to discourage people from finding work.Jan 22 22:09
DaemonFCThere doesn't really exist a place in the United States where you can live on $1,000 a month unless you're getting food stamps and rent assistance, and that's mostly impossible unless you're elderly, disabled, or have kids.Jan 22 22:10
DaemonFCThe cheapest rent for a one bedroom apartment in the cheapest parts of Indiana averages $500 a month without utilities included.Jan 22 22:10
DaemonFCSo half your income is already gone, and you aren't even buying food or keeping the heat and lights on.Jan 22 22:11
DaemonFCRepublicans call this way of living "giving someone a hammock".Jan 22 22:11
DaemonFCI understand not making unemployment comfortable, but $1,000 a month is basically torture.Jan 22 22:12
DaemonFCbut, you have to be one of the "lucky" unemployed to qualify for thatJan 22 22:12
DaemonFCmost get nothingJan 22 22:12
DaemonFCA modest standard of living for one adult in the cheapest part of the state of Indiana requires about $1,400 a month.Jan 22 22:13

DaemonFCEven if you're one of the lucky ones that has health insurance that negotiated slightly less obscene prices and then hands you a bill for a typical copay percentage of that, it adds up fast.Jan 23 00:17
DaemonFCJust ask that dude in California that had to have his appendix removed, who had typical health insurance, got handed a bill for over $50,000, submitted it to his insurance company, and ended up owing the hospital over $11,000 anyway.Jan 23 00:17
DaemonFCWell, at a Walmart-style job, it's not even worth trying to pay the bill, whether it's $11,000 or $50,000. The difference is whether it would take you 20 years or 100 years. You can't really be mad at people who just hang up on medical bill collectors over stuff like this. What else is there for them to do?Jan 23 00:17
DaemonFCLet them sue you if they want to. The judge probably won't give you a worse deal than they will. Lots of times, before they sue, they'll usually offer to settle for like 10 cents on the dollar or less. Jan 23 00:17

DaemonFCI hope it's not the water pump.Jan 23 19:10
DaemonFCThe cost for the part alone is about $200, and that's before the shop marks it up and calculates labor.Jan 23 19:10
DaemonFCI'm hoping it's just a tensioner or idler pulley.Jan 23 19:11
DaemonFCThose pulleys are not expensive.Jan 23 19:13
DaemonFCYou want to use NAPA for them though.Jan 23 19:13
DaemonFCNot Auto Zone or Advance Auto Parts.Jan 23 19:13
DaemonFCAuto Zone and Advance will sell you a tensioner for about $40, while NAPA's are about $65-70.Jan 23 19:14
DaemonFCBut the quality is much better.Jan 23 19:14
DaemonFCSame with the idler pulley. About $30 at Advance and Auto Zone, and about $50-60 at NAPA.Jan 23 19:14
DaemonFCThe ones at NAPA are pretty similar to an OEM part, but the ones at Auto Zone and Advance are made out of plastic.Jan 23 19:15
DaemonFCThey'll work for a little while. 30,000-40,000 miles, and then they'll go bad again.Jan 23 19:15
DaemonFCIf you've got a really old car that you're just trying to get another year or two out of it, go for the cheap part I guess.Jan 23 19:15
DaemonFCIf they take the belt off and find out that the tensioner or idler are bad, just have them replace both and the belt. Most of the cost is the labor. They have to put the system back together either way, so you may as well potentially avoid having them take it apart again.Jan 23 19:17

schestowitz__"Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__I was thinking along the same lines — that Edward Snowden’s leaks (by the way, they’re not just his anymore, as anonymous people from the NSA reportedly leak more and more documents to be published under his name for their safety) can at some stage show encryption undermined at more levels (hardware level, or even kernel level). We already know that encryption was undermined at RSA and NIST by NSA moles, using bribes too. We Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__also know that Linux (kernel) developers recently revised random number generators, after they had found a weakness.Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__Several state officials (in 6 state at the very least) now work to stop the NSA locally. Some call for a ban on companies that facilitate the NSA (that would include Red Hat), under the premise that they are complicit in crime. I am not kidding, watch the news this week (I don’t want to paste links here as the last time I did so my comment took half a day to appear).Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__Lastly, there are numerous E-mails sent from and to Red Hat. These further validated my suspicions.Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__I saw a lot of personal attacks (trying to discredit me or even remove links to my analyses). I even heard the usual personal attacks against Sam Varghese (which I expected from Red Hat because he dares to do real journalism, i.e. journalism that companies don’t like).Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__Trusting Red Hat should be based on its record, not emotional leanings and faith.Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__Don’t get me wrong. I was not offended by you and you oughn’t be offended by my response. I am used to this type of divisive treatment (people trying to ostracise me) since the days I criticised Novell — only to be proven right throughout and at the very end (Novell gave its patents to Linux foes).Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__I hope you will wait patiently for more information and assess the facts based on their merit. Don’t rely purely/solely on what you read in OpenSource.com (Red Hat). I saw Novell doing its self-delutional spiel (IP “peace of mind”) and fortuntely, at the end, Novell did not find enough fools to sell its lies to.Jan 24 20:03
schestowitz__I have been frank in my analysis of Red Hat (on patents, build process, etc.) and if you want links for particular bits of my claims, just ask. I have a repository of tens of thousands of links I collect while researching. Sometimes people refuse to accept even a well-sourced claim because of cognitive disonance — something I’ve had a lot of experience with when dealing with Microsoft spinners.Jan 24 20:03

DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 25 18:19
DaemonFCWell, Netflix is malicious in a lot of ways. It requires proprietary software and it is trying to ram Digital Restrictions Malware into an "internet standard". Google, Microsoft, and Apple are assisting them in their attack on the open web. Use Firefox.Jan 25 18:19
DaemonFCThe only good thing that Netflix is doing is fighting the court ruling that Verizon got, that effectively strikes down network neutrality. That's for their own selfish purposes. They know that it is a matter of time before your ISP extorts more money out of Netflix to excuse their traffic from your data caps. When the ISPs can do this, it means that they're motivated to set your caps as low as possible.Jan 25 18:19
DaemonFCComcast doesn't like internet-only customers that use someone else's VOD service because it's only $10 a month. They're probably going to end this arrangement unless we can get the FCC to declare that Comcast and other ISPs are "common carriers".Jan 25 18:19
DaemonFCOne of two things will happen to Netflix users if the Verizon ruling is allowed to stand. Either Comcast will add another $20-30 a month to your bill, or Netflix will pay to exempt themselves and the $10 a month fee for Netflix will be $40-50. Does anyone really want this? Jan 25 18:19

DaemonFCThey act like expanding healthcare is going to have Medicaid buying Cadillacs for people. If anyone would like to look at exactly how Medicaid works, you'll see that they make sure you're so poor that they do everything other than pulling the wedding ring off your finger and sending out a car hauler. You have to spend yourself down to where you have nothing left to speak of that month before Medicaid pays one thin dime. The only way people will Jan 25 18:56

schestowitzRicardo,Jan 25 20:35
schestowitzIt is _not_ purely speculative. If you think that it is, then you must not have paid close enough attention.Jan 25 20:35
schestowitzI have been spending at least 2 hours per day since 2012 reading about the NSA. I knew what Snowden showed even before it was publicly known and I spoke about it with RMS on numerous occasions (he came to the UK to meet Assange and then myself, focusing on mass surveillance).Jan 25 20:35
schestowitzThe truth of the matter just needs a little digging because the corporate press is not helping the general public find it out, just like it knowingly 'buried' a captured agent in Iran for several years (this leaked out in November).Jan 25 20:35
schestowitzSimilarly, GNU/Linux sites did a very poor job covering (if at all) what happened in recent months regarding Linux. Let me summarise some facts (without links, as I don't want to be put in the moderation queue again):Jan 25 20:35
schestowitz- Torvalds' father said that the NSA had approached his son regarding back doors.Jan 25 20:35
schestowitz- Linux had a back door added to it about a decade ago. It got removed quickly afterwards and it wasn't known who had added it. There was press coverage about it, but it was scarce.Jan 25 20:36
schestowitz- RSA received a bribe from the NSA to promote security standards with back doors.Jan 25 20:36
schestowitz- NIST and others had NSA moles and bogus (corrupt) peer review process to help usher in security standards with back doors.Jan 25 20:36
schestowitz- NSA is a large Red Hat client.Jan 25 20:36
schestowitz- The NSA sends patches to Red Hat, which in turn sends those for Linus Torvalds to put in Linux.Jan 25 20:36
schestowitz(the above two are now confirmed to me by Red Hat staff)Jan 25 20:36
schestowitz- BSD does not trust hardware-level random number generators, suspecting -- quite rightly given the NSA's track record -- that it has too low an entropy.Jan 25 20:36
schestowitz- Several top-level Linux developers found vulnerabilities in Linux random number generation. They quietly (without much press coverage anywhere) addressed the issue (raising the entropy) a few months back. Only the latest kernel release has the fixes applied AFAIK (I don't know if Greg K-H backported any of it because coverage is too scarce). To lay out the magnitude of this issue, it compromises SSL, PGP, etc. (pretty much everythingJan 25 20:36
schestowitzwith encryption, even passwords) not just at client side (desktop, tablet, smartphone) but also the server side (i.e. the Internet). This is huge! But the media hasn't covered it.Jan 25 20:36
schestowitzSuffice to say, Red Hat has not done anything to convince me I was wrong. Instead, I notice that Red Hat staff is stalking me in LinkedIn and I see my article cited in several news sites which wrote about the issue in several languages (3 articles in Google News are in Spanish).Jan 25 20:36
schestowitzIf you found holes in the above statements or if you want links attached, please request them and I will provide citations. I wrote about everything before, even years ago (NSA involvement in SLE* and RHEL I covered around 2007 or 2008).Jan 25 20:36
schestowitzI am frustrated to see people turning against the messenger rather than the message. I see a lot of the same done to Sam Varghese. We are making ourselves more vulnerable by refusing to listen to what seems uncomfortable.Jan 25 20:36

DaemonFCIt has a radically destructive way of forcing people to dispose of their liquid assets in ways that may not be wise.Jan 25 22:54

DaemonFCSo to qualify for Medicaid, you have to keep the car that you had when you originally signed up going forever.Jan 25 22:57

DaemonFCWindows and Mac OS aren't. If that's not bad enough, the only compiler you can build Mozilla software with on Windows is Microsoft Visual Studio, and it comes linked against proprietary runtime dlls from Microsoft on Windows as well. Jan 19 04:51
DaemonFCSo, the compiler could inject something nasty, and so could the runtimes it relies on. Even if they don't, Windows could monitor what's going on in Firefox.Jan 19 04:51
DaemonFCIf the compiler and runtime libraries aren't bad enough, Microsoft also slips in insecure software that malware targets, called ".NET Framework Assistant" and "Silverlight" without the user's permission.Jan 19 04:51

cubezzzbut when Xerox sued Apple their claims were dismissedJan 21 08:18
cubezzzalso Apple loses their case vs MicrosoftJan 21 08:19
cubezzzalso Xerox _invited_ the Macintosh design team to view the GUI stuff at Xerox PARCJan 21 08:20
cubezzzApple also licensed tech from XeroxJan 21 08:21
cubezzzXerox Star (1981) was a full GUIJan 21 08:23
cubezzza full 3 years before the Apple LisaJan 21 08:23
cubezzzthe Xerox Alto was barely a GUI reallyJan 21 08:23
cubezzzbut the Star was way too expensive... $75,000Jan 21 08:26

cubezzzsome of the Xerox guys left Xerox and went to MicrosoftJan 21 08:33
cubezzzalso some DEC guys -> Microsoft alsoJan 21 08:34
cubezzzdefections occurred at a critical time, 1983Jan 21 08:35
cubezzzthe first really affordable GUI computers were things like the Amiga and Atari StJan 21 08:36

cubezzzand even more interesting, Xerox was under a Consent Decree!Jan 21 08:37
cubezzzso anyways, no one owns the GUI :)Jan 21 08:38
cubezzzthe think tank guys had Multics, and Suns and Vaxes... it was all extremely expensiveJan 21 08:48
cubezzzanyways, DEC, IBM and MIT all got together and the X Window System was inventedJan 21 08:53
cubezzzso we had Ultrix and 4.3BSD to run X on...Jan 21 08:54
cubezzzthis would be around 1986 or soJan 21 08:56
cubezzznormal people couldn't afford to buy a MicroVaxJan 21 08:56
cubezzzbut in the early 90's Yggdrasil Linux had managed to get X working on PC hardwareJan 21 08:58
cubezzzX was a pig, and early on a lot of *nix folks didn't bother running XJan 21 08:59

cubezzzXerox Star was better written, and ran a GUI in 1.5 megs of ramJan 21 09:01
MinceRX was far more powerful than Xerox StarJan 21 09:02
MinceR(still is)Jan 21 09:02
cubezzzsorry, I'm not really using correct terminologyJan 21 09:04
cubezzzI should say The 8010 Information System ran in 1.5 megsJan 21 09:05
cubezzzthe Xerox Star is hardware, and X is software :)Jan 21 09:05
Sosumicrapple also claims having invented the mouseJan 21 09:06
cubezzzI'm not really sure what Xerox called their OS to be honestJan 21 09:06
cubezzzI'm merely pointing out that the Xerox Star OS ran in less memory than XJan 21 09:07
cubezzznot saying it was "better" than XJan 21 09:07
MinceRyou also claimed that it was better writtenJan 21 09:08
Sosumiwhat was better written?Jan 21 09:08
Sosumiho, xerox star...Jan 21 09:08
cubezzzit's hard to compare, Xerox Star OS only ran on one computer where X ran on a bunch of different thingsJan 21 09:09
<--iophk has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)Jan 21 09:09
MinceRX is also one of the most flexible windowing systems aroundJan 21 09:09
MinceRand it's networkableJan 21 09:09
cubezzzyes, well I'm an X programmer :)Jan 21 09:10
cubezzzthat's what I useJan 21 09:10
cubezzzit's just not the simplest thing to learnJan 21 09:10
cubezzzXerox PARC invented ethernet... so... you have to give them credit for itJan 21 09:11
cubezzznot sure why X got so complex... I guess it was because so many people contributed to itJan 21 09:11
MinceRpart of it was that it wanted to push a lot of the work to the x serverJan 21 09:14
MinceRso they have a ton of graphics primitivesJan 21 09:14
MinceR(that are almost unused nowadays)Jan 21 09:14
MinceRit's also very flexible, so it has to allow for a lot of things and has to allow a lot of the work to be done in other processes, by x clientsJan 21 09:15
MinceRwindow management, for exampleJan 21 09:15
MinceRthe interaction of many components also contributes to the complexityJan 21 09:15
cubezzztry to run X on 4 megs... even 16 megs and you'll see what I mean... it's a memory hog, relatively speakingJan 21 09:15
cubezzznowadays we have memory to burn, so it's not a problemJan 21 09:16
MinceRdunnoJan 21 09:16
MinceRi think i ran it on 32mbJan 21 09:16
MinceRand compared to winblows, it flied :>Jan 21 09:16
cubezzzas you said before, more features means more memory useJan 21 09:17
cubezzzearly X did run in 4 megs thoughJan 21 09:19
cubezzzQuasijarus (an offshoot of 4.3BSD) uses 16 megs and runs X okJan 21 09:22
cubezzztrue hardware independence, so yes X is very importantJan 21 09:27

Sosumihttps://s.4cdn.org/image/title/182.jpgJan 21 11:21
Sosumibalmer's 2 problemsJan 21 11:21
Sosumilinux and an oversized pepper = windowsJan 21 11:23
MinceRi don't think peppers deserved thatJan 21 11:23
MinceR(or linux)Jan 21 11:23
Sosumijust a pick from 4chanJan 21 11:23
Sosumithat I found funJan 21 11:23
DaemonFCWell, I actually kind of liked Windows 2000 and XP, for the time. Jan 21 11:34
DaemonFCThey really screwed up Vista and the train wreck kept going.Jan 21 11:34
DaemonFCPeople fled back to XP, which was aging poorly.Jan 21 11:34
DaemonFCNow there's really nowhere to go.Jan 21 11:35
cubezzznowhere to go?Jan 21 11:35
cubezzzthere's tons of choicesJan 21 11:35
DaemonFCXP is nearly EOL and a lot of hardware has no XP drivers, and it has a RAM limit that is well below what modern systems come with.Jan 21 11:35
DaemonFCI mean, within the Windows "family".Jan 21 11:35
iophkpeople railed against XP when it came out.  The UI was 'Fisher-Price' with C.PU-killing eye candyJan 21 11:35
cubezzzrightJan 21 11:35
cubezzzI remember thatJan 21 11:35
DaemonFCWell, I kind of liked the theming engine.Jan 21 11:36
DaemonFCThe problem was that the themes had to be signed.Jan 21 11:36
iophkThe obvious place to go now would be XFCE, if there are no legacy apps that won't run under WINEJan 21 11:36
DaemonFCSo you had to crack the theming dll to install themes that Microsoft didn't provide.Jan 21 11:36
DaemonFCThere were some excellent third party themes.Jan 21 11:36
cubezzzahem, no source code :)Jan 21 11:36
MinceRxfce ftwJan 21 11:36
DaemonFCI used the Water Color theme on XP for most of the time that I used it.Jan 21 11:37
DaemonFCThe one that looked like the theme for "Whistler".Jan 21 11:37
MinceRi used silver or winblows classic with default colorsJan 21 11:37
DaemonFCSilver was the only one that looked good out of the ones installed by default.Jan 21 11:38
DaemonFCI hated the blue and green ones.Jan 21 11:38
DaemonFCThe Zune theme actually looked pretty good.Jan 21 11:38
cubezzzKDE ended up with "cpu killing eye candy" alsoJan 21 11:38
cubezzzbut you can turn most of it offJan 21 11:38
DaemonFCWell, KDE's is not very heavy.Jan 21 11:38
DaemonFCThe 4.11/4.12 releases really got the memory usage of KDE under control, finally.Jan 21 11:38
iophkKDE 3.5x was good.Jan 21 11:38
MinceRkde ended up with bling instead of reliabilityJan 21 11:38
iophk4.x needs to much mouse-travel to get anything done.Jan 21 11:39
DaemonFCEarlier releases of KDE 4 has kwin using well over 150 MB of RAM and Akonadi sitting there using hundreds.Jan 21 11:39
iophkThat new application menu is a deal-breakerJan 21 11:39
DaemonFCThose were the two big memory pigs of KDE, but that's under control now.Jan 21 11:39
DaemonFCJust in time for them to end of life KDE 4Jan 21 11:39
MinceR"4.x is too good, got to release 5.0"?Jan 21 11:39
DaemonFCI'm planning on installing a long term support distribution to keep KDE 4.Jan 21 11:39
DaemonFCI haven't used KDE 5 yet because there's no test releases or anything so far. I can't say for sure it will be bad, but the Fedora KDE people are basically saying to brace yourself.Jan 21 11:40
cubezzzsome of the KDE 1.0 folks left KDEJan 21 11:40
DaemonFCI'll try KDE 5, but if I don't like it I'll be switching from Fedora.Jan 21 11:40
DaemonFCPossibly to CentOS 7 or something, with KDE.Jan 21 11:40
cubezzzso this discussion gives me dejavu :)Jan 21 11:40
DaemonFCRight now I have KDE 4.12.1.Jan 21 11:42
DaemonFCI'd like it if Fedora Legacy was still around.Jan 21 11:42
DaemonFCIf you like your Fedora, you can keep it!Jan 21 11:42
DaemonFC;)Jan 21 11:42
cubezzzI did keep itJan 21 11:42
cubezzzone of my machines runs fc1 :)Jan 21 11:42
DaemonFCNow, there's nowhere to go for long term support.Jan 21 11:42
DaemonFCYou have until the second release from the one you use, plus one month.Jan 21 11:43
DaemonFCSo, that works out to be somewhere between 13 and 15 months of support.Jan 21 11:43
cubezzzdownload all the source...Jan 21 11:43
DaemonFCDepending on whether there are delays in the next versions.Jan 21 11:43
MinceRi didn't keep my fedoraJan 21 11:44
MinceRi replaced it with crunchbang.Jan 21 11:44
DaemonFCI used one of the Fedoras for quite some time because of Legacy.Jan 21 11:44
cubezzzI wrote about Kontour, now I can't even remember what it wasJan 21 11:44
DaemonFCCan't remember which one. It was the one before SELinux was introduced.Jan 21 11:45
DaemonFCThe quality went to hell for a while after that.Jan 21 11:45
cubezzzoh yeah, vector drawing programJan 21 11:45
cubezzzmaybe that was KDE 2 era? Jan 21 11:47
DaemonFCThe quality of the KDE 4 series is pretty good lately. I don't know why it's time for more disruptive changes.Jan 21 11:48
DaemonFCIt's like GNOME and KDE both wait until everything is basically working right, and then they smash it all and start over.Jan 21 11:49
DaemonFCJamie Zawinski pointed that out when GNOME stopped working on GNOME 1 and went to GNOME 2.Jan 21 11:49
DaemonFCHe said that they started closing all their bug reports on GNOME 1 because it wasn't supported anymore.Jan 21 11:50
cubezzzthat always happensJan 21 11:50
DaemonFCHe said he suspects it's because building programs is more fun than trying to fix the bugs.Jan 21 11:50
DaemonFCSo when there's nothing left to do but fix bugs, they start over from scratch.Jan 21 11:50
cubezzzI fixed some KDE 3.5.X era bugs but there was no where to send the fixesJan 21 11:50
DaemonFCThere's the international team of developers called Timothy Pearson that works on Trinity. :)Jan 21 11:51
MinceRjwz also said a lot of stupid shit tooJan 21 11:51
Sosumixp was good?Jan 21 11:51
MinceRnoJan 21 11:51
Sosumilike xp and 200Jan 21 11:52
Sosumi*2000Jan 21 11:52
DaemonFCMinceR: He switched to Mac OS because "Linux has issues", and then he started blogging about Mac OS problems more frequently than he blogged about "Linux problems" before.Jan 21 11:52
SosumilolJan 21 11:52
DaemonFCAnd there was no way for him to fix the Mac OS ones because it's not open source.Jan 21 11:52
MinceRDaemonFC: but he didn't get the clue, did he?Jan 21 11:52
DaemonFCSo he reports them to Apple and then there's a new release that still does the thing he complained about.Jan 21 11:52
MinceRalso, it isn't a bad idea to general to start (more or less) over from time to time, but not by throwing out the stable version, but by continuing to support itJan 21 11:52
DaemonFCApparently not...Jan 21 11:52
Sosumithose things were total junk, even worse than vistaJan 21 11:52
MinceRalso, the newer versions should be better than the old ones, not worseJan 21 11:52
MinceR(i'm looking at you, gnome and kde)Jan 21 11:52
MinceRs/to gen/in gen/Jan 21 11:53
cubezzzthat sounds like Miguel de IcazaJan 21 11:53
DaemonFCKDE 4.12 is better than KDE 3.5Jan 21 11:53
MinceRis it?Jan 21 11:53
Sosumithanks to some internet crap installing without giving you prompts or anything at allJan 21 11:53
DaemonFCBut, it took them like six years to get here.Jan 21 11:53
DaemonFCSo, was it worth it? Jan 21 11:53
DaemonFCAnd that was 6 years where people had to deal with something that was not as good as KDE 3.5.Jan 21 11:53
MinceRcan kwin run without compositing without glitching all over the place now?Jan 21 11:53
DaemonFCSure, but the glitching is probably a problem with your graphics drivers.Jan 21 11:54
MinceRdid kde become less monolithic since early 4.x?Jan 21 11:54
Sosumiat least vista tried to intruduce something similar to what we have on unix which was the need to escalate the privilege in order to install stuffJan 21 11:54
MinceRstrange, other wm-s didn't have such problemsJan 21 11:54
DaemonFCFor some reason, the radeon and nouveau drivers both disable anti-tearing in EXA.Jan 21 11:54
DaemonFCYou need to override that.Jan 21 11:54
MinceRearlier kwin didn't have them eitherJan 21 11:54
Sosumiaka UACJan 21 11:54
DaemonFCMinceR: Not really. They said that was a goal, but installing most KDE programs brings in most of KDE.Jan 21 11:55
DaemonFCOnce you have the KDE libraries, you've got more than half of KDE installed anyway.Jan 21 11:55
MinceRyeah, but i'm not running more than half of KDEJan 21 11:56
MinceRbig difference.Jan 21 11:56
MinceRalso, i might not like all of plasma, for example.Jan 21 11:56
MinceRbtw, can kwin render the root window with compositing now if plasma isn't running?Jan 21 11:57
MinceRor is it still the old black stuff?Jan 21 11:57
DaemonFCI'm not sure. I've never used it outside of KDE.Jan 21 12:01
DaemonFCI know that the kwin developer was running Unity 2d with kwin at one point, when Unity 2d still existed.Jan 21 12:01
DaemonFCJust to show off kwin running a different desktop, I believe.Jan 21 12:01
DaemonFC St. Leigh of the Captchas says:Jan 21 12:02

DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 21 17:54
DaemonFCMost sites that set up a paywall immediately cease being relevant. A few of them get away with it, but most of them just lose 98% of their users.Jan 21 17:54
DaemonFCThe Wall Street Journal might get away with it because they target rich people have have money to throw at them and don't see $20 a month or whatever it is as a huge amount of money. I don't see things working out for most sites that do that, because nobody is going to pay $20 a month or even $2 a month to use every website they navigate to. So, yes, you can erect a paywall, but it's probably going to cost you more money in the end than accepting Jan 21 17:54
DaemonFCthe fact that about 1 in every 7-8 users is going to block your ads.Jan 21 17:54
DaemonFCAnd when you make technically savvy users angry at you, they declare war, and you lose anyway.Jan 21 17:54
DaemonFCSo when they threaten to do this, it's basically an empty threat. They're saying that to spite you, they're going to shoot themselves. Jan 21 17:54
DaemonFCI say "Go ahead. Get on with it.". Jan 21 17:55
DaemonFC Laz says:Jan 21 17:59
DaemonFC"If they're really a sovereign state, that means that they're liable for mounting their own defense."Jan 21 17:59
DaemonFCI'd bet that's what your position would have been regarding the British prior to Pearl Harbor and the Nazis declaring war against the US. Jan 21 17:59

DaemonFCNo, but it was obvious that the Axis was never going to stop. Even if they did achieve all of their objectives, they would have turned on each other. And they had credible military capabilities that were modern at the time.Jan 21 17:59

DaemonFCschestowitz__: My aunt Karen probably paid close to half a million dollars in Social Security tax.Jan 22 16:44
DaemonFCThen she died at 57 in a car crash last year. They wouldn't even pay the stinking $200 death benefit because her daughters were over 18.Jan 22 16:45
DaemonFCSocial Security is the biggest scam ever. It's great if you're one of the people that lives long enough to collect on it for long enough to get your money back.Jan 22 16:45
DaemonFCMost people don't,Jan 22 16:45
DaemonFCThe working poor usually don't even live to be 70.Jan 22 16:46
DaemonFCMany of them don't even get their first check.Jan 22 16:46
DaemonFCYou can't tell me that the system is insolvent.Jan 22 16:46
DaemonFCSo many people die and get nothing or way less than they paid in.Jan 22 16:46
DaemonFCSomething's wrong here, big time.Jan 22 16:47
DaemonFCThe rich collect it for 30-40 years, and they get Medicare too!Jan 22 16:47
DaemonFCIt's an upwards redistribution of wealth is what it is.Jan 22 16:47
DaemonFCYou're paying so that you can die before you collect and get stuffed into a cheap pine box.Jan 22 16:48
DaemonFCThen the rich people get your money and go golfing.Jan 22 16:48
DaemonFCThey're not talking about shutting it down. They'll never shut it down. What they'll do is jack up the retirement age so that even fewer poor people get some checks back out of it.Jan 22 16:49
DaemonFCBefore Reagan fucked with it, you could retire at age 62 with full benefits.Jan 22 16:50
DaemonFCThen it was 65 for my parents.Jan 22 16:50
DaemonFCFor me it's 67.Jan 22 16:50
DaemonFCWell, Obamacare probably increases the chance that I'll live to see 67.Jan 22 16:51
DaemonFCMy insurance has to give me a few benefits they never did before.Jan 22 16:51
DaemonFCI get one free wellness visit and some health screenings when I go in for that.Jan 22 16:52
DaemonFCI never used to get that.Jan 22 16:52
DaemonFCFuck it. If they're paying for it, I'm going.Jan 22 16:52
DaemonFCI know what it's really about though. The drug companies probably wanted it so that doctors can say you have high blood pressure and cholesterol and shit, and put you on more drugs.Jan 22 16:54
DaemonFCBut, it's good to do anyway. If you have some major illness, it's better to catch it now than to let it progress.Jan 22 16:54
DaemonFCschestowitz__: I had them CC my bloodwork to my psychiatrist. He said he wanted a CBC anyway the next time I went in.Jan 22 16:55
DaemonFCThis way it's free. No reason to do the same test all over again in three days and pay for the lab work.Jan 22 16:55
DaemonFCThe electronic health records were supposed to deduplicate that kind of stuff, but they don't.Jan 22 16:56
DaemonFCYou still have to watch out or they'll gladly run the same test twice and bill you again. :)Jan 22 16:57
schestowitz__[21:45] <DaemonFC> schestowitz__: My aunt Karen probably paid close to half a million dollars in Social Security tax.Jan 22 17:00
schestowitz__is that for unemployment and health?Jan 22 17:00
schestowitz__Here we pay about 20% of the wage towards all sorts of deductions, but the system here generally works better than the US, with not many who are homeless, not many guns, etc.Jan 22 17:01
DaemonFCNo, that's for Disability, Old Age, Survivors.Jan 22 17:01
DaemonFCYou pay like 6.4% of your pay up to $113,000 to Social Security.,Jan 22 17:01
DaemonFCYour employer matches it.Jan 22 17:02
DaemonFCIf you're self employed, you pay both parts.Jan 22 17:02
DaemonFCThen there's a separate tax for Medicare.Jan 22 17:02
DaemonFCYour employer pays the state a tax based on total number of employees and their layoff and unjustified termination history.Jan 22 17:03
DaemonFCThat goes to the unemployment insurance fund.Jan 22 17:03
schestowitz__wowJan 22 17:03
DaemonFCSo, if your employer has a layoff, you get benefits. If they fire you, you have to prove it was unjustified in front of an arbitrator.Jan 22 17:03

DaemonFCAnd you pay all the usual taxes on it.Jan 22 17:05
DaemonFCSo, more like $250-$260 a week when they're done with you.Jan 22 17:05

DaemonFCIndiana doesn't.Jan 22 17:06
DaemonFCThey don't do drug tests for it in Indiana.Jan 22 17:06
DaemonFCThat's working its way through the court system right now. Some federal courts found it constitutional, some found it unconstitutional.Jan 22 17:06
DaemonFCIt'll end up in the Supreme Court eventually.Jan 22 17:07
DaemonFCThere's no such thing as a jobseeker's benefit, or whatever you call it in the UK.Jan 22 17:07
DaemonFCI think I got the right term.Jan 22 17:07
DaemonFCunless you live in CaliforniaJan 22 17:07
DaemonFCthen you have to sign a form stating that they can dock your Social Security benefits when you get to retirement age.Jan 22 17:07
DaemonFCThere's a very minimal safety net in the US for the unemployed, and you have to have been employed to be covered by it.Jan 22 17:08
DaemonFCAnd it doesn't pay very much, and it's very easy to lose.Jan 22 17:08
DaemonFCDemocrats basically want to keep it as is, Republicans claim that $1,000 a month is going to discourage people from finding work.Jan 22 17:09
DaemonFCThere doesn't really exist a place in the United States where you can live on $1,000 a month unless you're getting food stamps and rent assistance, and that's mostly impossible unless you're elderly, disabled, or have kids.Jan 22 17:10
DaemonFCThe cheapest rent for a one bedroom apartment in the cheapest parts of Indiana averages $500 a month without utilities included.Jan 22 17:10
DaemonFCSo half your income is already gone, and you aren't even buying food or keeping the heat and lights on.Jan 22 17:11
DaemonFCRepublicans call this way of living "giving someone a hammock".Jan 22 17:11
DaemonFCI understand not making unemployment comfortable, but $1,000 a month is basically torture.Jan 22 17:12
DaemonFCbut, you have to be one of the "lucky" unemployed to qualify for thatJan 22 17:12
DaemonFCmost get nothingJan 22 17:12

DaemonFCEven if you're one of the lucky ones that has health insurance that negotiated slightly less obscene prices and then hands you a bill for a typical copay percentage of that, it adds up fast.Jan 22 19:17
DaemonFCJust ask that dude in California that had to have his appendix removed, who had typical health insurance, got handed a bill for over $50,000, submitted it to his insurance company, and ended up owing the hospital over $11,000 anyway.Jan 22 19:17
DaemonFCWell, at a Walmart-style job, it's not even worth trying to pay the bill, whether it's $11,000 or $50,000. The difference is whether it would take you 20 years or 100 years. You can't really be mad at people who just hang up on medical bill collectors over stuff like this. What else is there for them to do?Jan 22 19:17
DaemonFCLet them sue you if they want to. The judge probably won't give you a worse deal than they will. Lots of times, before they sue, they'll usually offer to settle for like 10 cents on the dollar or less. Jan 22 19:17
DaemonFCThat's actually what you have to do with hospital bills.Jan 22 19:18
DaemonFCWait until they charge it off, sell it to debt collectors, and get real close to suing you.Jan 22 19:19
DaemonFCThe debt collectors will eventually offer some kind of a settlement.Jan 22 19:19

DaemonFCI hope it's not the water pump.Jan 23 14:10
DaemonFCThe cost for the part alone is about $200, and that's before the shop marks it up and calculates labor.Jan 23 14:10
DaemonFCI'm hoping it's just a tensioner or idler pulley.Jan 23 14:11
DaemonFCThose pulleys are not expensive.Jan 23 14:13
DaemonFCYou want to use NAPA for them though.Jan 23 14:13
DaemonFCNot Auto Zone or Advance Auto Parts.Jan 23 14:13
DaemonFCAuto Zone and Advance will sell you a tensioner for about $40, while NAPA's are about $65-70.Jan 23 14:14
DaemonFCBut the quality is much better.Jan 23 14:14
DaemonFCSame with the idler pulley. About $30 at Advance and Auto Zone, and about $50-60 at NAPA.Jan 23 14:14
DaemonFCThe ones at NAPA are pretty similar to an OEM part, but the ones at Auto Zone and Advance are made out of plastic.Jan 23 14:15
DaemonFCThey'll work for a little while. 30,000-40,000 miles, and then they'll go bad again.Jan 23 14:15
DaemonFCIf you've got a really old car that you're just trying to get another year or two out of it, go for the cheap part I guess.Jan 23 14:15
DaemonFCIf they take the belt off and find out that the tensioner or idler are bad, just have them replace both and the belt. Most of the cost is the labor. They have to put the system back together either way, so you may as well potentially avoid having them take it apart again.Jan 23 14:17

schestowitz__"Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__I was thinking along the same lines — that Edward Snowden’s leaks (by the way, they’re not just his anymore, as anonymous people from the NSA reportedly leak more and more documents to be published under his name for their safety) can at some stage show encryption undermined at more levels (hardware level, or even kernel level). We already know that encryption was undermined at RSA and NIST by NSA moles, using bribes too. We Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__also know that Linux (kernel) developers recently revised random number generators, after they had found a weakness.Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__Several state officials (in 6 state at the very least) now work to stop the NSA locally. Some call for a ban on companies that facilitate the NSA (that would include Red Hat), under the premise that they are complicit in crime. I am not kidding, watch the news this week (I don’t want to paste links here as the last time I did so my comment took half a day to appear).Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__Lastly, there are numerous E-mails sent from and to Red Hat. These further validated my suspicions.Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__I saw a lot of personal attacks (trying to discredit me or even remove links to my analyses). I even heard the usual personal attacks against Sam Varghese (which I expected from Red Hat because he dares to do real journalism, i.e. journalism that companies don’t like).Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__Trusting Red Hat should be based on its record, not emotional leanings and faith.Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__Don’t get me wrong. I was not offended by you and you oughn’t be offended by my response. I am used to this type of divisive treatment (people trying to ostracise me) since the days I criticised Novell — only to be proven right throughout and at the very end (Novell gave its patents to Linux foes).Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__I hope you will wait patiently for more information and assess the facts based on their merit. Don’t rely purely/solely on what you read in OpenSource.com (Red Hat). I saw Novell doing its self-delutional spiel (IP “peace of mind”) and fortuntely, at the end, Novell did not find enough fools to sell its lies to.Jan 24 15:03
schestowitz__I have been frank in my analysis of Red Hat (on patents, build process, etc.) and if you want links for particular bits of my claims, just ask. I have a repository of tens of thousands of links I collect while researching. Sometimes people refuse to accept even a well-sourced claim because of cognitive disonance — something I’ve had a lot of experience with when dealing with Microsoft spinners.Jan 24 15:03

DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jan 25 13:19
DaemonFCWell, Netflix is malicious in a lot of ways. It requires proprietary software and it is trying to ram Digital Restrictions Malware into an "internet standard". Google, Microsoft, and Apple are assisting them in their attack on the open web. Use Firefox.Jan 25 13:19
DaemonFCThe only good thing that Netflix is doing is fighting the court ruling that Verizon got, that effectively strikes down network neutrality. That's for their own selfish purposes. They know that it is a matter of time before your ISP extorts more money out of Netflix to excuse their traffic from your data caps. When the ISPs can do this, it means that they're motivated to set your caps as low as possible.Jan 25 13:19
DaemonFCComcast doesn't like internet-only customers that use someone else's VOD service because it's only $10 a month. They're probably going to end this arrangement unless we can get the FCC to declare that Comcast and other ISPs are "common carriers".Jan 25 13:19
DaemonFCOne of two things will happen to Netflix users if the Verizon ruling is allowed to stand. Either Comcast will add another $20-30 a month to your bill, or Netflix will pay to exempt themselves and the $10 a month fee for Netflix will be $40-50. Does anyone really want this? Jan 25 13:19

DaemonFCI think it's horrifying that a person with the same exact policies would have been called a moderate Republican in 1993 and a hardcore far-left Socialist in 2014.Jan 25 13:56
DaemonFCMy mom even joined in with this crap.Jan 25 13:56
DaemonFCThey act like expanding healthcare is going to have Medicaid buying Cadillacs for people. If anyone would like to look at exactly how Medicaid works, you'll see that they make sure you're so poor that they do everything other than pulling the wedding ring off your finger and sending out a car hauler. You have to spend yourself down to where you have nothing left to speak of that month before Medicaid pays one thin dime. The only way people will Jan 25 13:56
DaemonFCsee anything out of Medicaid is if they do end up in the hospital. And god help them if they're admitted on the 30th and are there on the 1st, because then they have to pay their spend down twice.Jan 25 13:56

schestowitz"Jan 25 15:35
schestowitzRicardo,Jan 25 15:35
schestowitzIt is _not_ purely speculative. If you think that it is, then you must not have paid close enough attention.Jan 25 15:35
schestowitzI have been spending at least 2 hours per day since 2012 reading about the NSA. I knew what Snowden showed even before it was publicly known and I spoke about it with RMS on numerous occasions (he came to the UK to meet Assange and then myself, focusing on mass surveillance).Jan 25 15:35
schestowitzThe truth of the matter just needs a little digging because the corporate press is not helping the general public find it out, just like it knowingly 'buried' a captured agent in Iran for several years (this leaked out in November).Jan 25 15:35
schestowitzSimilarly, GNU/Linux sites did a very poor job covering (if at all) what happened in recent months regarding Linux. Let me summarise some facts (without links, as I don't want to be put in the moderation queue again):Jan 25 15:35
schestowitz- Torvalds' father said that the NSA had approached his son regarding back doors.Jan 25 15:35
schestowitz- Linux had a back door added to it about a decade ago. It got removed quickly afterwards and it wasn't known who had added it. There was press coverage about it, but it was scarce.Jan 25 15:36
schestowitz- RSA received a bribe from the NSA to promote security standards with back doors.Jan 25 15:36
schestowitz- NIST and others had NSA moles and bogus (corrupt) peer review process to help usher in security standards with back doors.Jan 25 15:36
schestowitz- NSA is a large Red Hat client.Jan 25 15:36
schestowitz- The NSA sends patches to Red Hat, which in turn sends those for Linus Torvalds to put in Linux.Jan 25 15:36
schestowitz(the above two are now confirmed to me by Red Hat staff)Jan 25 15:36
schestowitz- BSD does not trust hardware-level random number generators, suspecting -- quite rightly given the NSA's track record -- that it has too low an entropy.Jan 25 15:36
schestowitz- Several top-level Linux developers found vulnerabilities in Linux random number generation. They quietly (without much press coverage anywhere) addressed the issue (raising the entropy) a few months back. Only the latest kernel release has the fixes applied AFAIK (I don't know if Greg K-H backported any of it because coverage is too scarce). To lay out the magnitude of this issue, it compromises SSL, PGP, etc. (pretty much everything Jan 25 15:36
schestowitzwith encryption, even passwords) not just at client side (desktop, tablet, smartphone) but also the server side (i.e. the Internet). This is huge! But the media hasn't covered it.Jan 25 15:36
schestowitzSuffice to say, Red Hat has not done anything to convince me I was wrong. Instead, I notice that Red Hat staff is stalking me in LinkedIn and I see my article cited in several news sites which wrote about the issue in several languages (3 articles in Google News are in Spanish).Jan 25 15:36
schestowitzIf you found holes in the above statements or if you want links attached, please request them and I will provide citations. I wrote about everything before, even years ago (NSA involvement in SLE* and RHEL I covered around 2007 or 2008).Jan 25 15:36
schestowitzI am frustrated to see people turning against the messenger rather than the message. I see a lot of the same done to Sam Varghese. We are making ourselves more vulnerable by refusing to listen to what seems uncomfortable.Jan 25 15:36

DaemonFCIt has a radically destructive way of forcing people to dispose of their liquid assets in ways that may not be wise.Jan 25 17:54

DaemonFCSo to qualify for Medicaid, you have to keep the car that you had when you originally signed up going forever.Jan 25 17:57
