DaemonFC | Someone noticed me posting on their forum and changed my member status to "Apple Basher". I told them, "thank you". | Mar 09 01:29 |
DaemonFC | Someone was talking to me about when I worked at Walmart. | Mar 09 01:31 |
DaemonFC | They reminded me of this annoying co-manager we had. They said "Didn't you just want to walk up and kick her in the cunt?". | Mar 09 01:31 |
DaemonFC | I said, "Well, she did brag about buying her son a new Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. About a week later, she came in, in a bad mood, and said her son was trying to drag race someone, peeled out from a stop sign, and ran the car into a tree. The insurance company ended up totaling the car. Isn't is just wonderful how some days turn out?" | Mar 09 01:33 |

DaemonFC | Of course, whether there's spyware for iThings or not depends on that which we call spyware. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | Most apps in Apple and Google's store are designed to mine your personal data and spy on you. The NSA even worked with Apple to install backdoors into iPhones and other Apple products at the hardware level. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | Both stores contain apps from car insurance companies that monitor your phone's GPS. Facebook's app is designed to copy your phone's SMS messages and send them to Facebook, which uses the data for advertising and god only knows what else. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | In general, I never install an app on my phone on my Android phone if there's a way to do the same thing on a web page through my Mozilla Firefox web browser. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | You'd be surprised at how many apps are just a portal to a website that gives some untrustworthy company additional powers over your phone, which they will use to steal your personal data. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | The iPhone also has an additional malicious feature which lets every store you enter track your movements and send you alerts that you might not want. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | There are a few grocery stores that wait until you get close to the Gillette shaving razors and send you a coupon for them. So, maybe you don't care if they know you like Gillette shaving razors, but they effectively know everything else too. How long you spend in the frozen food aisle next to the pizzas. If you're buying condoms and lube from the "personal aisle", etc. Maybe they'll sell all that to a health insurance company. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | Do you really want them to know this stuff? | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | The only way to turn off this malicious iPhone feature is to disable bluetooth completely. Even then, it's proprietary, so who knows whether turning that feature off actually turned off their ability to track you, or just shuts off their ability to send you coupons and alerts? | Mar 09 01:53 |
msb_ | Wire a switch in series with the battery, AND keep it in a metal (solid, mesh or foil) case. | Mar 09 02:16 |
msb_ | The whole phone, not just the switch. | Mar 09 02:16 |
msb_ | Or, run a network trace on the spies, and when it finds them, feed the coordinates to a drone with an HE warhead. | Mar 09 02:18 |

msb_ | "<Sosumi> the big iron desktop is already dead" -- Nonsense! The very article that Sosumi links to shows desktop sales declining very slowly by about 14% from 2012 to 2018. Desktops can have highspeed processors and have several large HDDs to have lots of data instantly available, for about $1200. Laptops add portability but lack the large data storage and some of the speed, for about the same price. Tablets store little data and | Mar 09 17:32 |
msb_ | have a tiny screen -- useless for watching movies -- and an inefficient "keyboard". Easy portability is their only advantage. They have entirely different uses from desktops and laptops. The only reason tablets are outselling the others is their low price. | Mar 09 17:32 |
msb_ | None of this has anything to do with Microshit, which will hopefully gradually die. | Mar 09 17:34 |
Sosumi | ppl use tvs to watch movies | Mar 09 17:36 |
Sosumi | many from what I've seen have already relegated all their computing to tablets | Mar 09 17:36 |
msb_ | Desktops and laptops can serve as a wonderful extension of the human mind, if configured correctly. Any song, any movie, any piece of information important to a person, can be instantly recalled. | Mar 09 17:36 |
Sosumi | the only desktop market that still stays afloat is the gaming pc | Mar 09 17:36 |
msb_ | Most people don't think, have never learned how, and have in fact been taught not to think. Any that drink fluoridated water, take antacids containing aluminum, or get vaccines containing mercury, have been brain-damaged. All of these have little intellectual life. They may be satisfied with a tablet, and watching movies from DVDs using a TV. | Mar 09 17:40 |
msb_ | They are "sheeple". But it's people who *do* think who make a difference, who advance human knowledge and society, and create a World Community, and (hopefully) save us from the current domination by fascist psychopaths. | Mar 09 17:43 |

Sosumi | instead of doing drugs | Mar 09 19:30 |
Sosumi | because once you know how the mind works | Mar 09 19:31 |
Sosumi | you'll no longer fall for the entrapments of propaganda | Mar 09 19:31 |
msb_ | Sosumi: 1. I don't "do drugs". 2. I know that people create a model of reality in their minds, which is not necessarily accurate. It can only be made more accurate by critical thinking -- access all available sources of information, and compare them with one another and with your own internal model using the law of non-contradiction. | Mar 09 19:33 |
msb_ | Sosumi: Then update your internal model. If you don't realize that your beliefs are your own model of reality, and that you must use critical thinking to correct it, then you have no hope of knowing what's actually going on in the world. Psychology and neurophysiology don't help that much. | Mar 09 19:35 |
msb_ | Sosumi: You must hold your own mind as an object of examination. That is the key. Self-observation, as explained by Gurdjieff and Ouspensky. Without it you remain asleep. | Mar 09 19:36 |

DaemonFC | Sosumi: My car is old enough that it has an accelerator cable. | Mar 09 22:08 |
DaemonFC | I have driven ones that have the sensor instead. | Mar 09 22:08 |
Sosumi | mine too | Mar 09 22:08 |
DaemonFC | I don't know why they changed it. Another expensive sensor that can go out? | Mar 09 22:08 |
Sosumi | it fits in if they record your usage of the accelerator | Mar 09 22:09 |
DaemonFC | I hate how they have a $500 sensor on every fucking thing now. | Mar 09 22:09 |

DaemonFC | Isn't that what the sticker is for? | Mar 09 22:09 |
Sosumi | for possible data retrieval at a car repair shop | Mar 09 22:10 |
DaemonFC | Then when you take it for an oil change, they don't reset the sensor, and it still says you need an oil change. | Mar 09 22:10 |
Sosumi | or on those newer models, actually transmit the data | Mar 09 22:10 |
DaemonFC | I've seen plenty of people with that light on where they say "Yeah, the shop never reset it.". | Mar 09 22:10 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 09 22:10 |
Sosumi | mine doesn't do any of that | Mar 09 22:10 |
DaemonFC | This car is the newest I've owned. It's a 1996. | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | So it does have OBD-II. | Mar 09 22:11 |
Sosumi | mine's just a renault 21 turbo from 1991 | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | That was the first year the federal government mandated that. | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | Some 1995s have them. | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | I've owned a lot of 1995s. | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | A 1995 Chevy Lumina, a 1995 Chevy Corsica, a 1995 Ford Taurus.... | Mar 09 22:12 |
DaemonFC | People get rid of their cars when there's plenty of life left on them. | Mar 09 22:12 |
DaemonFC | They just want something newer, which is ridiculous. | Mar 09 22:12 |
DaemonFC | If it's not broke, don't fix it. | Mar 09 22:13 |
Sosumi | no idea on what others do | Mar 09 22:13 |
Sosumi | but that renault has served me well | Mar 09 22:13 |
Sosumi | as it did it's previous owner | Mar 09 22:13 |
Sosumi | *its | Mar 09 22:13 |
Sosumi | and didn't cost me a dime | Mar 09 22:13 |
Sosumi | since it was given free to me | Mar 09 22:13 |
DaemonFC | I paid $2,200 for mine. | Mar 09 22:22 |
DaemonFC | Considering what used car prices are up to, that's not a bad deal. | Mar 09 22:23 |
DaemonFC | As recently as 2005, $2,000 got you a decent 10 year old car with about 100,000 miles on it. | Mar 09 22:23 |

DaemonFC | MinceR: I don't know why they have a drive test. | Mar 09 22:44 |
DaemonFC | There's always someone that darts out in front of you. | Mar 09 22:44 |
MinceR | to serve as incentive for corruption? :> | Mar 09 22:44 |
DaemonFC | There's always that guy that's going 50 in a 60 in front of you in a no passing zone. | Mar 09 22:45 |
MinceR | at least i'm sure that's how it works here in hungary | Mar 09 22:45 |
DaemonFC | There's always the dude that can't keep it in one lane. | Mar 09 22:45 |
MinceR | there's no way all those retards got a driver's license fair and square. | Mar 09 22:45 |
DaemonFC | Do these people exist in Hungary? :) | Mar 09 22:45 |
MinceR | yes, all of them | Mar 09 22:45 |
MinceR | also, turn lights are apparently a rarely heard legend | Mar 09 22:45 |
DaemonFC | Yeah. I honk at them and flip them off. | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | and tailgating is the national sport | Mar 09 22:46 |
DaemonFC | It won't improve their behavior, but it feels good. | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | people driving shitty expensive german cars believe the rules don't apply to them | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | the police don't think the rules apply to them | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | the rules are getting shittier every year | Mar 09 22:46 |
DaemonFC | Here, it's mostly pickup trucks that are rusty and as old as I am. | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | but no problem, since these idiots will probably insist on keeping the nazi dictatorship | Mar 09 22:47 |
DaemonFC | Economy cars from the 90s that are burning oil. | Mar 09 22:47 |
MinceR | so the roads won't be maintained | Mar 09 22:47 |
DaemonFC | etc... | Mar 09 22:47 |
MinceR | and will become unusable in a decade or two | Mar 09 22:47 |
MinceR | and the people will also starve to death or be killed by plague | Mar 09 22:47 |
MinceR | or in civil war | Mar 09 22:47 |
MinceR | so it won't last anyway | Mar 09 22:47 |
DaemonFC | Ford hasn't made anything better than the Crown Victoria. | Mar 09 22:47 |
DaemonFC | You see cars like mine with 300,000-400,000 miles on them, and still running. | Mar 09 22:47 |
DaemonFC | CAFE killed the Crown Vic. | Mar 09 22:48 |
DaemonFC | If they sold my car today, there's be a gas guzzler tax on it. | Mar 09 22:48 |
DaemonFC | *there'd | Mar 09 22:48 |
MinceR | maybe because it _is_ a gas guzzler? :> | Mar 09 22:49 |
MinceR | or the tax isn't dependent on mileage? :> | Mar 09 22:49 |
DaemonFC | it's whatever the government declares to be a gas guzzler | Mar 09 22:49 |
DaemonFC | I think the standard is 22.5 mpg now. | Mar 09 22:50 |
DaemonFC | They increase the fine by every 1 mpg you get under that. | Mar 09 22:50 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Mine is EPA rated for 17 mpg combined city/highway. | Mar 09 22:51 |
MinceR | there you go, it's a gas guzzler :> | Mar 09 22:51 |
MinceR | (according to the standard) | Mar 09 22:52 |
DaemonFC | Well, yeah, except the EPA ratings aren't based in reality. | Mar 09 22:52 |
DaemonFC | They don't reflect how real people drive. | Mar 09 22:52 |

TakinOver | Crown Victoria? I've only seen cops driving those. | Mar 10 00:10 |
msb_ | Suppose the government decides that people should have sensors, a little computer, and a wifi transceiver inside them to alert them to problems with their heart, liver, brain, etc. | Mar 10 00:16 |
msb_ | "Democracies" may vote to make that mandatory. After all, they voted to *prevent* GMO labelling and gay marriage in states in the US, and to make totally harmless cannabis more illegal than *murder*. Voted through their elected legislators. | Mar 10 00:18 |
msb_ | Maybe those same brainwashed idiot voters would vote to make implanted chips and sensors mandatory. | Mar 10 00:19 |
msb_ | And then the govt could keep track of everyone -- where they are and what they're doing. All for their own good, of course. | Mar 10 00:20 |
msb_ | If you went into a Faraday-cage room to block the transmission, the wifi transmitter might go to full power trying to contact the nearest base station and burn a hole through your skin. | Mar 10 00:23 |
msb_ | Of course there would be no way to switch it off. For your own good. | Mar 10 00:23 |
msb_ | I guarantee that psychopaths in the US government are working on this right now. | Mar 10 00:24 |
msb_ | There's even a TV series called "Intelligence" about a guy with a chip in his head that can receive all wifi data. He can identify and track people. The system in his head integrates the data and shows him a series of pictures. He works for "US Cybercom":. | Mar 10 00:26 |
msb_ | He has a beautiful female partner to protect him if he gets distracted by all that data. They just showed episode 9 a couple days ago. | Mar 10 00:29 |
msb_ | And we thought Skynet and Terminators were the worst they'd come up with. | Mar 10 00:30 |
msb_ | Well, I guess the Matrix was worse. | Mar 10 00:30 |

Sosumi | it was like I said yesterday | Mar 10 19:06 |
Sosumi | the only thing that is surging is the gaming pc market | Mar 10 19:06 |
Sosumi | although, consoles will pick up once exclusives start kicking in | Mar 10 19:07 |
Sosumi | as for the xbone I see a bad future ahead of it | Mar 10 19:07 |
Sosumi | usually what kept the 360 around at first were the paid exclusives | Mar 10 19:08 |
Sosumi | and the halo games made by bungie | Mar 10 19:08 |
Sosumi | which were quite mediocre if I must say | Mar 10 19:09 |
Sosumi | specially halo 1 | Mar 10 19:09 |
Sosumi | didn't bring anything new into the mix | Mar 10 19:09 |
Sosumi | aside from assisted aiming, lawl | Mar 10 19:09 |

DaemonFC | I opened all my windows. 55 degrees is like a tropical heat wave compared to the winter we've had. | Mar 10 19:11 |
Sosumi | in here there was just rain and rain | Mar 10 19:12 |
Sosumi | but no cold at all | Mar 10 19:12 |
Sosumi | the lowest temps outside were usually around 15 ºC | Mar 10 19:12 |
Sosumi | at moment and for the remaining of the week | Mar 10 19:13 |
Sosumi | it is forecasted to be all sun and temperatures around 20 ºC | Mar 10 19:13 |
Sosumi | and that basically means summer to me | Mar 10 19:13 |

abeNd-org | ugh, what is it with google & malware paid links, come on, i know you like money google but must you accept it from those pushing malware? this isnt even apps, this is links in google search, just had to clear off a computer from the person doing a "adobe flash" search on windows & clicking one of the sponsored links that infested her machine with a boatload of garbageware | Mar 10 20:19 |
gde33 | abeNd-org: even worse, they were in a position to set some decent web standards but chose to keep what they like a secret | Mar 10 20:28 |
gde33 | they have a ton of designers guess what google likes, so called SEO | Mar 10 20:29 |

sebsebseb | hi | Mar 10 20:38 |
Sosumi | abeNd-org, I think those folks actually deserve that for installing flash | Mar 10 20:38 |
Sosumi | DaemonFC, always turn off stuff, including lights and radio when starting the engine | Mar 10 20:40 |

abeNd-org | Sosumi despite your perfect html5 world, some stuff still uses flash on the internet, especially when it comes to end user applications | Mar 10 20:47 |
Sosumi | like flash games? | Mar 10 20:48 |
Sosumi | real end user applications of the sort of important "stuff" | Mar 10 20:49 |
Sosumi | are done in java | Mar 10 20:49 |
Sosumi | flash in itself, could and should just die | Mar 10 20:49 |
Sosumi | *on | Mar 10 20:49 |
abeNd-org | radio station in this particular case, & yes mgmt allows it, so yes, it is supported by IT per mgmt, so no, this wouldnt fit into your perfect html5 utopia that doesnt exist | Mar 10 20:53 |
MinceR | 205215 < DaemonFC> Even on Windows, I do not believe that malware can infest a video file, unless the format is WMV. | Mar 10 20:53 |
abeNd-org | flash should die, but it isnt, & hasnt | Mar 10 20:53 |
MinceR | i suppose a buffer overflow or similar vulnerability could lead to execution of arbitrary code :> | Mar 10 20:53 |
abeNd-org | os2 should die, but there is still plenty of it out there, sco openserver should die, but there is still plenty of it out there | Mar 10 20:53 |
Sosumi | funnily how you immediately declared ti has my html5 utopia | Mar 10 20:54 |
MinceR | how could there be a "perfect html5 world" as long as a drm apologist heads the w3c in cahoots with msft and the MAFIAA? | Mar 10 20:54 |
Sosumi | when in fact html5 has been infected with drm a while ago | Mar 10 20:54 |
Sosumi | so, far from being utopic | Mar 10 20:55 |
abeNd-org | i call it as the way you speak there is nothing in the universe using flash | Mar 10 20:57 |
MinceR | sites should just link to reasonably open video files and let a real video player handle them :> | Mar 10 20:57 |
MinceR | (not Real Video, that's crap) | Mar 10 20:57 |
Sosumi | never intended to make it sound that way | Mar 10 20:58 |
Sosumi | like there is "nothing using flash" | Mar 10 20:58 |
Sosumi | plus, flash is deprecated on gnu/linux and it is a broken glass jar poorly fixed with duct tape and camel spit | Mar 10 20:59 |
abeNd-org | so tough cookies, flash still exists, stop whining & fix the issues instead of crying a river. google's sponsored ads on searches being one of the problems | Mar 10 20:59 |
Sosumi | so obviously that I'm all for replacing it | Mar 10 20:59 |
abeNd-org | yeah, well, it still exists, so again, touch cookies | Mar 10 20:59 |
abeNd-org | tough | Mar 10 21:00 |
abeNd-org | should it? no, does it? yes | Mar 10 21:00 |
MinceR | getting rid of flash is the way to fix the issue. | Mar 10 21:01 |
abeNd-org | ok, so where is a usable replacement, & why is it that places like radio station websites arent using it yet? | Mar 10 21:01 |
MinceR | there were usable replacements ever since video player applications could stream over http | Mar 10 21:03 |
MinceR | websites aren't using them because people are stupid. | Mar 10 21:03 |
Sosumi | I have no idea of what radio stations you're talking about | Mar 10 21:03 |
Sosumi | but the one I know provide a file that can be opened through vlc | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | or even itunes | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | for streaming | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | much better | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | and it works with mobile devices | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | since flash is dead on android too | Mar 10 21:04 |
MinceR | (and most likely even an "html5" video element could be used in such a way) | Mar 10 21:05 |
abeNd-org | sure, people in this channel could configure vlc for streaming, but most "humans" wouldnt know what vlc is, much less how to get it going for streaming | Mar 10 21:05 |
MinceR | you underestimate the popularity of vlc :> | Mar 10 21:05 |
Sosumi | that is why those humans deserve all the bag of hurt they get by installing flash | Mar 10 21:05 |
MinceR | also, regardless of your enthusiasm for flash, the fact is adobe is killing support for it. | Mar 10 21:06 |
Sosumi | hopefully, they'll apreciate to know better next time | Mar 10 21:06 |
abeNd-org | & you underestimate the corporate world | Mar 10 21:06 |
abeNd-org | "(4:00:16 PM) abeNd-org: should it? no, does it? yes" - pretty sure i wouldnt call that enthusiasm.... | Mar 10 21:06 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Real doesn't have their own codecs anymore. | Mar 10 21:07 |
abeNd-org | sure, replacing it with adobe air | Mar 10 21:07 |
DaemonFC | Just a container format that hosts MPEG-4. | Mar 10 21:07 |
MinceR | they killed adobe air earlier | Mar 10 21:07 |
abeNd-org | on linux sure | Mar 10 21:07 |
MinceR | and it failed anyway | Mar 10 21:07 |
abeNd-org | alive & well on windows | Mar 10 21:07 |
MinceR | i'm curious of your corporate environment where adobe air is "alive & well" | Mar 10 21:07 |
MinceR | i'm pretty sure people aren't even aware of it in most "corporate environment"s | Mar 10 21:08 |
Sosumi | I thought that everyone hated air | Mar 10 21:09 |
Sosumi | as much as they hated twilight | Mar 10 21:09 |
Sosumi | or silverlight | Mar 10 21:09 |
abeNd-org | from what i remember most of the people in this channel are just students, or have only worked in one IT environment in their lives | Mar 10 21:09 |
MinceR | then you "remember" it wrong | Mar 10 21:10 |
Sosumi | I'm guilty for student | Mar 10 21:10 |
abeNd-org | yea, silverlight, nightmare, ms is still pushing it for lync/sccm/etc management | Mar 10 21:10 |
MinceR | yeah, msft pretty much gave up on silverlight | Mar 10 21:10 |
MinceR | ages ago | Mar 10 21:10 |
abeNd-org | yea, they did, but for the current mgmt consoles of some of their major server programs it is still there | Mar 10 21:11 |
MinceR | so, a relic | Mar 10 21:11 |

msb_ | I never programmed that IBM 1401, but I did spend a couple years on this LINC computer: http://www.digibarn.com/collections/systems/linc/ | Mar 11 04:33 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.digibarn.com | Digibarn Systems: The LINC - Laboratory INstrument Computer [ http://ur1.ca/gtbmh ] | Mar 11 04:33 | |
msb_ | Click on the photos to expand them. It had silver toggle switches to load address and data. You could simply run your finger down them to set them all to 0 or 1. It had lighted pushbuttons! | Mar 11 04:35 |
msb_ | The display was a 5" oscilloscope. I programmed a binocular stero display on it with one of the analog knobs adjusting separation of the two pictures to match the viewer's interocular distance. | Mar 11 04:36 |
cubezzz | that was by DEC was it not? | Mar 11 04:36 |
msb_ | The keyboard crapped out and I helped make a new one out of a teletype and diode logic, to use until the replacement came. | Mar 11 04:37 |
msb_ | Yes, DEC. | Mar 11 04:37 |
msb_ | It was designed to be programmable by scientists for use in laboratory automation and data processing/visualization. | Mar 11 04:38 |
msb_ | I wrote a program that used an area of memory to hold instructions created by a random number generator. They could modify themselves, but the HALT instruction was not executed. The display instruction had the X value in an index register and the Y value in the accumulator. The random-execution program made displays that looked like EEG patterns! | Mar 11 04:42 |
msb_ | The Ghost in the Machine! | Mar 11 04:42 |
cubezzz | so it's a rasterized display? | Mar 11 04:42 |
cubezzz | if so, it's one of the earliest ones | Mar 11 04:42 |
msb_ | Nope -- one dot at a time. | Mar 11 04:42 |
msb_ | But the screen was fairly long persistence, and if there were 1000 dots or less it didn't flicker much. | Mar 11 04:43 |
msb_ | I built a light-pen for it, so you could draw pictures and store them on the little magtapes. Even make movies, sort of. | Mar 11 04:44 |
msb_ | Originally it had 1K of 12-bit core, then they added a second K. | Mar 11 04:45 |
cubezzz | that's tiny | Mar 11 04:45 |
msb_ | But it didn't have to support a GUI. Just ran one program at a time, which you wrote in assembly language. | Mar 11 04:46 |
cubezzz | I guess that would be assembly language only then? | Mar 11 04:46 |
cubezzz | ah I see | Mar 11 04:46 |
msb_ | But it was a very easy and efficient assembly language. BASIC came later, on the PDP-8, | Mar 11 04:47 |
msb_ | The instructions were designed for programming by general scientists and lab techs, not computer specialists. | Mar 11 04:48 |
cubezzz | interesting | Mar 11 04:48 |
cubezzz | I've dabbled with early DEC computers a bit, but not the LINC | Mar 11 04:49 |
msb_ | It came with an editor/assembler program, more or less curses-like. You could insert lines. | Mar 11 04:49 |
msb_ | The LINC was the most beautiful of all. | Mar 11 04:49 |
cubezzz | did you ever work on a PDP-4? | Mar 11 04:50 |
cubezzz | that's about the same era | Mar 11 04:50 |
msb_ | It had analog input knobs, A/D and D/A convertors, and a plugin frame that could hold custom circuitry you'd build on perf boards. | Mar 11 04:50 |
msb_ | No. | Mar 11 04:50 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/pdp-4-trackball.png | Mar 11 04:50 |
msb_ | LINC, PDP-8, LINC-8, PDP-12, PDP-6, PDP-10. | Mar 11 04:51 |
cubezzz | I've worked on PDP-10 | Mar 11 04:51 |
msb_ | Wow, huge screen! | Mar 11 04:52 |
cubezzz | DEC 340 display :) | Mar 11 04:52 |
cubezzz | well before my time, but interesting | Mar 11 04:52 |
msb_ | I've used a $30 Logitech trackball for years. would never go back to a mouse. | Mar 11 04:52 |
msb_ | We might have had one of those displays on the PDP-12. At least it was big and round. Still dot by dot. | Mar 11 04:53 |
cubezzz | vector 1024x1204 if I remember correctly | Mar 11 04:54 |
cubezzz | 1024x1024 | Mar 11 04:54 |

msb_ | I think ours was dots, not vectors, but I'm not sure now. | Mar 11 04:55 |
msb_ | In any case you had to be very careful in programming it not to burn a hole in the phosphor by repeatedly displaying a dot in one place. | Mar 11 04:56 |
msb_ | Always kept a finger on the STOP switch until you knew there were no bugs that would do that. | Mar 11 04:56 |
msb_ | During the Vietnam War, some big bosses came through and I displayed a peace symbol on the LINC screen that I had secretly prepared. | Mar 11 04:59 |
msb_ | No flicker, medium-persistence green phosphor, about the same color used in The Matrix. | Mar 11 05:00 |
cubezzz | reminds me a bit of Commodore PET | Mar 11 05:01 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/superpet-apl2.png | Mar 11 05:01 |
cubezzz | the PET had 8x8 characters though, so a bit more resolution than 4x6 :) | Mar 11 05:03 |
cubezzz | wikipedia says white or yellow phosphor, but those pics showed green | Mar 11 05:05 |
msb_ | The 5 inch LINC display was definitely green. I don't remember the color of the large round PDP-12 display. | Mar 11 05:07 |
msb_ | The PDP-12 had both LINC and PDP-8 instruction sets, and could switch between them. | Mar 11 05:07 |
msb_ | It had a 5MB removable hard drive, that would scratch the head on the edge of the platter every time the cartridge was loaded. But DEC denied it. | Mar 11 05:09 |
cubezzz | RK05? | Mar 11 05:10 |
msb_ | Could be. It was a single platter cartridge. | Mar 11 05:10 |
msb_ | A Data General Eclipse computer I worked on had a 200MB HDD the size of a small coffin. I fixed it using only a triggered-delay oscilloscope. | Mar 11 05:12 |
cubezzz | what language(s) did you use on the PDP-10? | Mar 11 05:13 |
msb_ | Computing got to be real fun again when I got an IBM-PC with a color display. | Mar 11 05:14 |
msb_ | Assembly and Fortran. I was working on a machine to scan oscilloscope photographs into the computer. Scanned them with a CRT and lens, and picked up the reflection with a photomultiplier tube. | Mar 11 05:15 |
msb_ | The photos were of nanosecond phenomena, and the original signals were to fast to digitize. | Mar 11 05:16 |
msb_ | The thing actually worked, powered by a PDP-8 networked to the PDP-6 or 10, and was callable from Fortran. | Mar 11 05:17 |
msb_ | to fast --> too fast | Mar 11 05:18 |
msb_ | Light absorption in chlorophyll (spinach leaves) hit with a Q-switched ruby laser pulse. | Mar 11 05:19 |
msb_ | The measure light was a xenon flash lamp powered by a multiple pi-section delay line, where the inductors were tunable with ferrite cores, enabling the light pulse to be flattened. | Mar 11 05:20 |
msb_ | I was very proud of that measure light! | Mar 11 05:20 |
cubezzz | you had an interesting job :) | Mar 11 05:21 |
msb_ | A succession of them. | Mar 11 05:21 |
msb_ | Research labs were much better to work in than the software companies I was in after them. The scientists were rational. The software managers were not. | Mar 11 05:22 |

cubezzz | http://apl.maxhost.org/apl-tops-20.txt | Mar 11 05:23 |
msb_ | Was/is that a successor to the PDP-10? | Mar 11 05:24 |
msb_ | Or an OS? | Mar 11 05:24 |
cubezzz | well tops-20 was the OS for DECSystem-20 | Mar 11 05:25 |
cubezzz | not sure if that was the successor to PDP-10 though | Mar 11 05:25 |
msb_ | I think I had migrated to DG Nova/Eclipse, and then to 6502 satellites of them, and then IBM-PCs. | Mar 11 05:26 |
cubezzz | I guess it's still a PDP-10 though | Mar 11 05:26 |
msb_ | I had an idea for each lab setup to have a little 6502 machine with 4K or so of RAM, that could take data at high speed, store it, and feed it to the Eclipse central computer over a serial line. | Mar 11 05:28 |
msb_ | It would have worked if they hadn't stopped me! No, actually we built one 6502 satellite (based on a cheap kit), and it did work. | Mar 11 05:29 |
cubezzz | I think some of the DECSystem-20's had 1024 kilowords of ram | Mar 11 05:31 |
msb_ | I got circuit ideas for it from, I think Don Lancaster's monthly column in Popular Electronics. | Mar 11 05:31 |
msb_ | A mighty megabyte! | Mar 11 05:31 |
msb_ | Except I guess they were 36-bit words. | Mar 11 05:32 |
cubezzz | yes, pretty hefty :) | Mar 11 05:32 |
cubezzz | plus it had ethernet which is nice | Mar 11 05:34 |
msb_ | Better than RS-232! | Mar 11 05:34 |
cubezzz | three-phase power, not something for the house | Mar 11 05:35 |
cubezzz | way too big | Mar 11 05:35 |
msb_ | Cables under the floor. | Mar 11 05:35 |
cubezzz | I think there's a lot of source code kicking around though, and there's a pretty good emulator for it | Mar 11 05:36 |
msb_ | Eventually a Pentium PC beat it all to hell. Such is the power of photolithography. | Mar 11 05:36 |
cubezzz | you be surprised now much old stuff is open source now | Mar 11 05:36 |
cubezzz | x86 doesn't rule everything | Mar 11 05:37 |
cubezzz | IBM still makes mainframes :) | Mar 11 05:37 |
msb_ | Yeah, but what do they have inside 'em? | Mar 11 05:37 |
msb_ | Might be lots of multi-core x86s. | Mar 11 05:38 |
msb_ | Often running Linux. | Mar 11 05:38 |
cubezzz | it's z10 these days | Mar 11 05:38 |
msb_ | Proprietary IBM CPU? | Mar 11 05:39 |
cubezzz | linux yes, but not x86 | Mar 11 05:39 |
cubezzz | yeah it's an IBM microprocessor, came in around 2008 | Mar 11 05:40 |
msb_ | Didn't IBM contribute a billion dollars to improving Linux some years back? | Mar 11 05:41 |
cubezzz | some of the supercomputers are intel xeon though | Mar 11 05:42 |
cubezzz | ah, I think they did | Mar 11 05:42 |
cubezzz | there's still some anti-microsoft sentiment there :) | Mar 11 05:42 |
msb_ | Good! | Mar 11 05:42 |
cubezzz | at least old IBM is actually open source | Mar 11 05:43 |

msb_ | Wow, so that's computer generated, not a photo? | Mar 11 05:49 |
cubezzz | yeah | Mar 11 05:49 |
msb_ | Very good! | Mar 11 05:49 |
msb_ | Did DEC have some kind of windowing GUI that ran on Unix before X? | Mar 11 05:50 |
cubezzz | there was the W Window System | Mar 11 05:50 |
msb_ | Doesn't ring any bells. I think it was on DEC... | Mar 11 05:51 |
cubezzz | not sure if that ran on DEC though | Mar 11 05:51 |
*freedomrun (~freedomru@unaffiliated/freedomrun) has joined #techrights | Mar 11 05:51 | |
cubezzz | but it's the ancestor of X | Mar 11 05:51 |
msb_ | No, I think it was SunOS. | Mar 11 05:51 |
msb_ | Easier to deal with than X. Even I could understand it. | Mar 11 05:52 |
msb_ | X I just have to take on faith. | Mar 11 05:53 |
msb_ | Yes, I worked on Suns for a couple years. Pizza boxes and such. | Mar 11 05:54 |
cubezzz | SunOS ran X | Mar 11 05:54 |
cubezzz | xdm and all that stuff | Mar 11 05:55 |
msb_ | But didn't it have its own GUI before X? | Mar 11 05:55 |
cubezzz | maybe really early on there was, not positive about that | Mar 11 05:57 |
msb_ | "GUI environments bundled with earlier versions of SunOS included SunTools (later SunView)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunOS#User_interface | Mar 11 05:57 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | SunOS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia [ http://ur1.ca/gtc2j ] | Mar 11 05:57 | |
cubezzz | even SunView ran on top of X | Mar 11 05:57 |
cubezzz | so before that, maybe | Mar 11 05:57 |
msb_ | I think it was SunView. | Mar 11 05:57 |
cubezzz | remember, everyone got behind X around 1986 or so | Mar 11 05:58 |
cubezzz | so before 1986 it's quite possible that they used something else | Mar 11 05:58 |
msb_ | I wrote my own simple window system for PC-DOS in C. Put up overlapping windows with text in them. | Mar 11 05:58 |
msb_ | Never got around to graphics in the windows, though. | Mar 11 05:59 |
cubezzz | here's some history of X: | Mar 11 05:59 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/history-of-x.txt | Mar 11 05:59 |
cubezzz | Xerox had something before X | Mar 11 06:02 |
msb_ | Thanks! Time marches on. | Mar 11 06:02 |
msb_ | Everything must be improved, whether it needs to be or not. | Mar 11 06:02 |
cubezzz | yeah, I think X is important | Mar 11 06:02 |
cubezzz | device independent graphics | Mar 11 06:03 |
msb_ | Has that program come back that allows you to adjust X to your monitor, instead of relying on X's wrong automatic guesses? I forget what it was called. | Mar 11 06:04 |
msb_ | Also helped set up unusual input equipment like my trackball. | Mar 11 06:05 |
cubezzz | well redhat had there redhat-config-xfree86 program | Mar 11 06:06 |
msb_ | Last time I upgraded Linux I had to get lots of hints and guesses from Suse IRC folks to make a center button by pushing left and right together. | Mar 11 06:06 |
msb_ | Suse's had a different name. 8^) | Mar 11 06:07 |
cubezzz | in the somewhat olden days there was a package called XFree86-tools | Mar 11 06:07 |
cubezzz | so whatever was in that | Mar 11 06:07 |
msb_ | I always keep all the config files and libs from the previous Linux in case I have to graft them onto the new one. | Mar 11 06:08 |
msb_ | Bilkenstein's monster. | Mar 11 06:09 |
cubezzz | it's better to understand the text files though | Mar 11 06:09 |
cubezzz | rather than rely on some gui thingamajig | Mar 11 06:10 |
msb_ | Well, yeah, I had to hack the X config files. | Mar 11 06:10 |
cubezzz | ok, now I remember what I used to do... | Mar 11 06:11 |
cubezzz | Xfree86 -configure | Mar 11 06:11 |
cubezzz | that barfs out a XF86Config text file :) | Mar 11 06:11 |
msb_ | If the gui thingamajig works and writes the config files for me, that's fine. I long ago realized that I can't understand everything in computers. Even most things. | Mar 11 06:12 |
cubezzz | well the source is there, but it's hard to absorb all of it :) | Mar 11 06:12 |
cubezzz | learning everything about X is wading into deep water | Mar 11 06:13 |
cubezzz | a lot of the young uns don't understand X too well | Mar 11 06:13 |
msb_ | it was SaX2! or maybe SaX or SaX3 | Mar 11 06:14 |
msb_ | a lot of the old uns don't either! | Mar 11 06:14 |
cubezzz | no one is saying learn the X protocol 100%, but some macro-level understanding is good | Mar 11 06:14 |
msb_ | No doubt. | Mar 11 06:15 |
msb_ | Hey, it gives us a hobby! | Mar 11 06:16 |
cubezzz | Scheifler "borrowed" a lot of W code for X | Mar 11 06:18 |
cubezzz | so MIT, DEC, IBM got together and helped build up X | Mar 11 06:19 |
msb_ | Betwen google, the previous version, and IRC, any problem can be solved. Eventually. | Mar 11 06:19 |
msb_ | Hey, ever since I blew the dust out of my cpu heatsink and such, and have kept moderate rein on Firefox, I haven't had another crash. I love watching the cpu temperature graphs in the sys mon program! | Mar 11 06:20 |

*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Mar 11 06:24 | |
msb_ | Then I worked at a Stanford physics lab, that's where I used the Suns. | Mar 11 06:24 |
cubezzz | yeah there was Stanford Lisp | Mar 11 06:25 |
cubezzz | then MACLISP | Mar 11 06:26 |
msb_ | Even some kind of Sun 386s, that ran Unix. They were kinda crashy. | Mar 11 06:26 |
cubezzz | and 4.3BSD had a lisp interpreter | Mar 11 06:26 |
cubezzz | I was never a fan though | Mar 11 06:26 |
msb_ | When I first found out about lisp I thought it was god's primordial language. But I never got into it, except the simplified version for programming the BRIEF editor. | Mar 11 06:27 |
cubezzz | and early Sun's did run W, I | Mar 11 06:27 |
cubezzz | I'm just reading up on that | Mar 11 06:27 |
msb_ | It was probably smarter than our previous president "W". | Mar 11 06:28 |
cubezzz | don't malign the letter :) | Mar 11 06:28 |
msb_ | It has to host Sesame Street. | Mar 11 06:29 |

cubezzz | wetscape looks like a web browser | Mar 11 06:33 |
msb_ | Yes! Give W multiple named desktops and a taskbar, and I'd be happy with it. | Mar 11 06:34 |
msb_ | And some apps, and a menu, and firefox, and... well, KDE3! | Mar 11 06:36 |
msb_ | Also mc -- I'd be lost without it. | Mar 11 06:36 |
msb_ | Have more than 50 copies running. Don't know why half of them don't show up in ps. | Mar 11 06:39 |
cubezzz | why so many? | Mar 11 06:39 |
msb_ | 20 desktops, 4-5 konsoles with mc in each. | Mar 11 06:40 |
msb_ | All together they don't use more than a couple percent of my old cpu, so I leave them up, set to the directories of interest in each desktop. | Mar 11 06:41 |
msb_ | I have an OS that could run 50 users out of this little PC. Might as well load it up with mind helpers for little old me. | Mar 11 06:42 |
msb_ | I remember when a PDP-11 timeshared for a whole university, or at least a college. And my old dual core AMD is faster. | Mar 11 06:45 |
msb_ | The human race will do great things, if we don't kill ourselves off. | Mar 11 06:45 |
msb_ | I just read where some particle accelerator is going to be improved for even higher energies, where it might make a strangelet that would convert the entire planet and everything on it into a ball of seething crap. | Mar 11 06:47 |
msb_ | Sane people would do that on a moon somewhere very far away. | Mar 11 06:48 |
msb_ | Or maybe they would never do it. | Mar 11 06:50 |
msb_ | I was thinking "another galaxy", but then it might ruin an entire galaxy. | Mar 11 06:50 |
msb_ | Well, maybe natural processes create energies far above what we can ever reach. I sure hope so. | Mar 11 06:51 |
cubezzz | yeah I don't think we can destroy galaxies :) | Mar 11 06:52 |
cubezzz | we can't even put a guy on Mars yet :) | Mar 11 06:52 |
msb_ | And if we can, we shouldn't. | Mar 11 06:52 |
msb_ | I think we almost put Carrie-Anne Moss on Mars, but she stayed in orbit. | Mar 11 06:53 |
cubezzz | I never got mc working over ssh quite right | Mar 11 06:55 |
msb_ | Ooh yeah! Red Planet 2000 | Mar 11 06:56 |
cubezzz | esc 0 works though | Mar 11 06:57 |
cubezzz | then esc esc to get out of a menu | Mar 11 06:57 |
msb_ | mc has a mailing list, maybe an irc channel. You could ask. | Mar 11 06:58 |
msb_ | They're also constantly improving it. Or at least updating it. | Mar 11 06:59 |

MinceR | lol | Mar 11 07:03 |
cubezzz | one of the problems is konsole uses f2 to make another instance of konsole | Mar 11 07:04 |
cubezzz | so that mucks things up for mc | Mar 11 07:05 |
cubezzz | but I think I've got it working OK now | Mar 11 07:05 |
cubezzz | mc -a | Mar 11 07:05 |
msb_ | My version of console doesn't respond to F keys at all | Mar 11 07:06 |
msb_ | Which is probably a good thing, in case I hit one by mistake. | Mar 11 07:06 |
msb_ | console --> konsole | Mar 11 07:06 |
MinceR | iirc the hotkeys of konsole are configurable | Mar 11 07:07 |

genome26 | at first, you're reading along and think "hey, this is cool" | Mar 11 13:51 |
genome26 | and then the author goes and has to pimp out Mono saying it's faster than native code | Mar 11 13:52 |
Sosumi | no-mono and seriously no clang | Mar 11 13:52 |
genome26 | why do the gnomne people tolerate this insolence? | Mar 11 13:52 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 11 13:53 |
MinceR | the gnome people have apparently accepted mono already | Mar 11 13:53 |
MinceR | afaik tomboy is (or at least was) an official part of gnome | Mar 11 13:53 |
MinceR | that's a big wtf in itself | Mar 11 13:53 |
Sosumi | .net makes no sense on linux | Mar 11 13:54 |
genome26 | yea | Mar 11 13:54 |
Sosumi | as it doesn't make any sense to use llvm/clang on gnu/linux either | Mar 11 13:55 |
Sosumi | clang is in fact the apple fork of llvm | Mar 11 13:55 |
MinceR | i thought it was a compiler for llvm | Mar 11 13:56 |
MinceR | that turned c[++?] code into whatever bytecode llvm runs | Mar 11 13:56 |
Sosumi | yes, that | Mar 11 13:57 |

genome26 | I think my news reader uses it unfortunately | Mar 11 14:02 |
genome26 | which is the only gnome program I use anymore | Mar 11 14:02 |
Sosumi | it easily burns and under display port multistream you lose display synch, forcing the display to restart itself | Mar 11 14:03 |
Sosumi | same can be expected for the asus rebrand | Mar 11 14:04 |
Sosumi | as it uses the same igzo panel | Mar 11 14:04 |
MinceR | Sosumi: so, is llvm bad also? | Mar 11 14:04 |
Sosumi | llvm is mainly bad for not being gpl | Mar 11 14:04 |
Sosumi | so instead of diverging focus to it | Mar 11 14:04 |
Sosumi | the focus should be directed into making gcc the best | Mar 11 14:05 |

Sosumi | fromwhat I've seen before | Mar 11 15:32 |
Sosumi | cryengine sdk could be ordered to output the rendered sandbox on a target platform | Mar 11 15:33 |

DaemonFC | J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says: | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | Well, a damaged ego can cause people to keep insisting that they're right even after it's been proven beyond a shadow of doubt that they were wrong. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | At this point, they have their honor invested in the Big Lie, and don't want to back out of it because it would force them to admit that they were deceived. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | People who are the victims of medical quackery like megadoses of herbs and vitamins who do not improve will tell other people that they did in order to save face. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | My grandparents got involved in some pyramid schemes back in the 90s, and lost over $10,000. They were telling people that they were in on some hot investment opportunities, even while they were losing their shirts. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | I remember two schemes by name that my grandparents got in on in the 90s. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | One was called Destiny Telecommunications. You got in by paying some money to be a "sales consultant" and sell phone cards to people. It turned out that the phone cards only had 20-30 minutes on them, even the ones that said they were good for several hours. The people running the scam did go to prison, as I recall, but the nature of those scams is that by the time the FBI busts them, there's almost never any money left, and the victims get back | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | pennies on the dollar. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | The other one they got taken by was called "King's Vitamins", which was going around recruiting people at churches to sell their vitamins. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | My grandparents got in so deep with King's Vitamins that they fell behind on their payments on their Cadillac car and had a repo company come take it back. To save face, they insisted to everyone who asked where the Cadillac went that "the engine burned up". | Mar 11 15:48 |

DaemonFC | I posted this on Amazon in regard to Apple and Microsoft's patent trolling of Android: | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | I just don't want to see Android and Firefox OS chased off the market by devices from Microsoft and Apple that really aren't all that good at all. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | Even the minimal improvements that Microsoft and Apple make between generations of phones would slow or stop if there was no Android challenging them, and moving the technology forward. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | It would be like that time where Internet Explorer 6 had 97% of the browser market, and Microsoft openly declared that it would be the last major version of Internet Explorer ever. They were just going to stop and leave people with Internet Explorer 6 forever with basically no improvements. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | They even backed up that announcement by firing 90% of the IE team. Then they sneered at Firefox and let it get about 10 years ahead of Internet Explorer before they did anything about it at all. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | This is what companies like Microsoft and Apple do when there's nobody moving the game forward. | Mar 11 19:57 |

msb__ | Regarding: "<DaemonFC> People who are the victims of medical quackery like megadoses of herbs and vitamins who do not improve will tell other people that they did in order to save face." | Mar 11 20:22 |
msb__ | It's important to know that what is called "megadose" of Vitamin C really is not. | Mar 11 20:23 |
msb__ | The govt RDA of vit C is about 200mg, which is enough to prevent scurvy and some other severe deficiency diseases, but it is nowhere near the amount that we need. | Mar 11 20:24 |
msb__ | When we were living in trees we lost the last enzyme in the chain that makes ascorbic acid, because we were getting several grams/day from fruit. | Mar 11 20:25 |
cubezzz | msb_, I got something for you | Mar 11 20:26 |
cubezzz | computerworld from 1972 | Mar 11 20:26 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/cw-1972-may-03.tar.gz | Mar 11 20:26 |
msb__ | Animals other than great apes (and maybe guinea pigs) make about 5 grams/day when healthy, and up to 70grams/day when they have a viral infection. | Mar 11 20:26 |
cubezzz | how much vitamin C should we per day? | Mar 11 20:28 |
cubezzz | should we take | Mar 11 20:29 |
msb__ | 3 metric tons | Mar 11 20:29 |
msb__ | No, actually about 5 grams/day. | Mar 11 20:29 |
msb__ | Or if you're feeling low, 5 grams twice a day. | Mar 11 20:31 |
cubezzz | yeah it's hard to know if your getting enough nutrition from the food you eat | Mar 11 20:32 |
msb__ | Generally you're not, and it's worth a buck a day or so to take supplements. | Mar 11 20:34 |
msb__ | fish oil, various antioxidants, Bs, C, ubiquinol, sublingual B12, minerals, A (carotene), D3,... | Mar 11 20:35 |
msb__ | Especially as one gets older and doesn't make or absorb nutrients that we used to. | Mar 11 20:36 |
msb__ | Like B12. Very important, but useless orally, except under the tongue. | Mar 11 20:37 |
msb__ | That's why middle-aged an older people get B12 shots. But sublingual is just as good. | Mar 11 20:39 |
Sosumi | well, I think I jst overdosed myself with vit c | Mar 11 20:45 |
msb__ | cubezzz: What should I be looking for in those computerworld pages? | Mar 11 20:45 |
msb__ | Sosumi: How much did you take? | Mar 11 20:46 |
cubezzz | actually that issue isn't terribly interesting | Mar 11 20:46 |

Sosumi | and 5 apples | Mar 11 20:47 |
cubezzz | msb__, I just find looking at historical computer info is interesting | Mar 11 20:47 |
msb__ | Sosumi: That amount of C won't hurt you certainly, probably 60 grams at once wouldn't, although it might give you a stomache ache and diarearia. | Mar 11 20:48 |
Sosumi | I was just joking | Mar 11 20:48 |
Sosumi | I eat that everyday | Mar 11 20:49 |

Sosumi | specially the ones that come associated with weight lifting | Mar 11 20:49 |

Sosumi | I've tried that | Mar 11 20:51 |
msb__ | Sosumi: I guess if you lift weights your anal sphincter is very strong? | Mar 11 20:51 |

Sosumi | even the weaker ones | Mar 11 20:52 |
cubezzz | I hate taking pills with lots of iron in them | Mar 11 20:53 |

msb__ | Eat them with a little food. | Mar 11 20:53 |
Sosumi | ho but I did | Mar 11 20:53 |
msb__ | iron is bad for you unless you're low in hemoglobin | Mar 11 20:53 |
msb__ | Sosumi: never heard that from anyone else, except a few with stomach upset from Vit. C. Which you can eliminate by neutralizing its acidity with CaCO3 or MgCO3. | Mar 11 20:55 |
Sosumi | well, I'm an anomaly :) | Mar 11 20:55 |
Sosumi | but I try to compensate it through food | Mar 11 20:56 |

msb__ | sure. Also aluminum and squalene, which can cause autoimmune disease. | Mar 11 21:42 |
msb__ | Al causes alzheimers. | Mar 11 21:42 |
MinceR | i wonder what the proof for that is | Mar 11 21:43 |
MinceR | and if it's even relevant to the dosage present in vaccines at all | Mar 11 21:43 |
MinceR | not to mention what compound that "mercury" and "aluminum" is present in | Mar 11 21:43 |
msb__ | In the 90s, a bunch of kidney patients got dialized against tapwater with high Al content. They got very fast alzheimers. Also the characteristic "neurofibrillary tangles" in Alz brains have 80x as much Al in them as other tissues. | Mar 11 21:45 |
msb__ | dialyzed | Mar 11 21:45 |
*schestowitz (~schestowi@unaffiliated/schestowitz) has joined #techrights | Mar 11 21:46 | |
msb__ | Duplicated by injecting rats. | Mar 11 21:46 |
msb__ | As to quantity and compound, I don't want *any* thank you very much. | Mar 11 21:47 |
Sosumi | the aluminum thing is true | Mar 11 21:47 |
Sosumi | as for the concentration of adverse adjuvants on the vaccine | Mar 11 21:47 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 11 21:47 |
Sosumi | but I agree on being safer than sorry | Mar 11 21:48 |
Sosumi | but given portugal's vaccination program | Mar 11 21:48 |
msb__ | Here's a fun read: http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19970914&slug=2560362 | Mar 11 21:48 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-community.seattletimes.nwsource.com | Business | Scientist's Death Traced To Seemingly Trifling Mishap -- Tiny Drop Of Mercury Spilled In Chemistry Lab Proves Deadly | Seattle Times Newspaper [ http://ur1.ca/gtj3m ] | Mar 11 21:48 | |
Sosumi | there is nothing to worry abount | Mar 11 21:48 |
Sosumi | I know about | Mar 11 21:49 |
msb__ | nothing to worry about... nothing to worry about... nothing to worry about... | Mar 11 21:50 |
MinceR | "tapwater with high Al content" is very different from "vaccine containing thiomersal" | Mar 11 21:50 |
MinceR | 224715 < msb__> As to quantity and compound, I don't want *any* thank you very much. | Mar 11 21:50 |
MinceR | see, this has nothing to do with the scientific method | Mar 11 21:50 |
MinceR | or modern medicine. | Mar 11 21:51 |
msb__ | Of course, two different poisons. | Mar 11 21:51 |
MinceR | also, apparently thiomersal was already phased out of many vaccines | Mar 11 21:51 |
MinceR | even though there's no convincing evidence about the harm | Mar 11 21:51 |
MinceR | and pretty much everything is a poison, in the right dose | Mar 11 21:52 |
MinceR | so dosage _is_ important | Mar 11 21:52 |
MinceR | for example, oxygen can be poisonous at too high doses, but try living without it | Mar 11 21:52 |
MinceR | as for vaccines, the proper way to determine risk would probably be via real clinical trial, not speculation based on what element was found where. | Mar 11 21:53 |
MinceR | apparently in the case of O2, pressure is important as well as concentration | Mar 11 21:53 |
MinceR | (space suits use low pressure pure O2) | Mar 11 21:54 |
MinceR | water can be poisonous as well | Mar 11 21:54 |
MinceR | etc. | Mar 11 21:54 |
msb__ | So can stupidity. | Mar 11 21:54 |
MinceR | not in the same sense | Mar 11 21:54 |
Sosumi | play nice folks | Mar 11 21:58 |
MinceR | also, thiomersal will probably not harm you. but pertussis will kill you. :> | Mar 11 21:59 |
MinceR | and so will TBC. | Mar 11 22:00 |
Sosumi | just remember what dalton said | Mar 11 22:00 |
Sosumi | everything is poison and nothing is poison | Mar 11 22:00 |
Sosumi | it's just a matter of quantity | Mar 11 22:00 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 11 22:01 |
Sosumi | gn | Mar 11 22:02 |
MinceR | o/ | Mar 11 22:02 |
MinceR | squalene is (allegedly) mostly used for non-human vaccines and might even be beneficial | Mar 11 22:03 |
MinceR | also, squalene is a vital part of the synthesis of sterols, including cholesterol and vitamin D -- so the "Al in water => Al is evil" theory would mean no vitamin D or lipoproteins for you :> | Mar 11 22:08 |

msb__ | I have done extensive trials on Vit C for viruses -- 50 years on myself for colds and flu, a couple of cats, and a 5-year old with measles (of course with doses scaled to body weight). In all cases there was relief of symptoms within 1-3 hours, and eventual return of symptoms a few hours after that, whereupon I began continuous treatment for a few days. | Mar 12 01:45 |
msb__ | Since the cats and kid didn't know what they were getting, that was a blind experiment. I've also given it to various adults, with the same results. | Mar 12 01:47 |
msb__ | The results all agreed with the findings of Cathcart, Pauling, Klenner (who consistently cured polio with C), and others, I regard the action of C against viral infections as proven beyond doubt. | Mar 12 01:49 |
msb__ | Too bad MinceR has gone, I'm sure he would disagree! | Mar 12 01:50 |
msb__ | Incidentally, testing of new drugs in the US is done by the manufacturer, not by the FDA. | Mar 12 01:52 |
msb__ | Once upon a time, I was involved in the testing of a medical device that was already being sold. I found that it could kill the patient. Did the mfr tell the FDA? No, they fired me. | Mar 12 01:53 |

msb__ | The only clinical trials by FDA -related orgs used only about 2 grams of C/day and so found no effect. But the ghouls are very eager to ban it. For our own good of course. | Mar 12 07:01 |
msb__ | Klenner cured lots of children of polio. | Mar 12 07:01 |
MinceR | ban it? | Mar 12 07:04 |
MinceR | isn't vitamin c available over the counter? | Mar 12 07:04 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Yes. In several forms. | Mar 12 07:05 |
DaemonFC | You should take Ester-C if you want to take more than the RDA and don't want to risk developing kidney stones though. | Mar 12 07:06 |

msb__ | According to the article, "high" dose C raises the incidence of kidney stones in men from 1% to 2%. 99% of men who take it and 100% of women, have no increased kidney stones. | Mar 12 08:14 |
msb__ | The article lies when it says there are no health benefits. My site links to several, and Cathcart's to even more. | Mar 12 08:15 |
msb__ | "Ester-C | Mar 12 08:16 |
msb__ | The name "Ester-C" is a lie. I've looked at the package. It's calcium ascorbate, exactly what you don't want to take if your body is unusually good at converting ascorbate to oxalate, which forms kidney stones with Ca. | Mar 12 08:17 |

MinceR | they can't even provide enough toilet paper to their people^Wserfs | Mar 12 15:07 |
Sosumi | well | Mar 12 15:08 |
Sosumi | there are tent cities in the US with people that dropped out of the labor market and can't find a job | Mar 12 15:08 |
Sosumi | which don't even account for the unemployment % | Mar 12 15:08 |
Sosumi | same also happens in japan | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | with cardboard cities | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | it is like I just said | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | when certain things are taken to the extreme | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | no good outcome can come out of that | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | did I forget detroit? | Mar 12 15:10 |
MinceR | maybe the turbo-republicans will succeed at destroying the economy to the point where they can sell cheap labor like the PRC does now :> | Mar 12 15:10 |
Sosumi | cheap labor? | Mar 12 15:10 |
Sosumi | more like sweat shop labor | Mar 12 15:10 |
MinceR | indeed. | Mar 12 15:10 |
MinceR | modern slavery | Mar 12 15:10 |
Sosumi | those folks don't even earn the required money to buy what they manufacture | Mar 12 15:11 |
Sosumi | and then you have companies | Mar 12 15:11 |
Sosumi | putting 90% markups on products | Mar 12 15:11 |
Sosumi | hey, like apple does | Mar 12 15:11 |
Sosumi | which is an exaggeration | Mar 12 15:13 |
Sosumi | other companies do that too, just to sound premium | Mar 12 15:14 |
Sosumi | like samsung was doing with the galaxy s4 | Mar 12 15:14 |
Sosumi | by releasing it at the same price as the iphone | Mar 12 15:14 |
Sosumi | to them lower the price by 200€ in 2 months | Mar 12 15:15 |
MinceR | because the idiotic buyers believe that the hypePhone is premium and that it's worth its price | Mar 12 15:17 |
Sosumi | but the s4 isn't premium either | Mar 12 15:17 |
MinceR | at least the s4 is a smartphone | Mar 12 15:17 |
MinceR | and a high-end one at that, iirc | Mar 12 15:17 |
Sosumi | one is a piece of crippled crap with fancy looks | Mar 12 15:17 |
MinceR | i wonder if samsung is still pushing region locking | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | the other is turd made of plastic that doesn't get the updates at the same time google updates android | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | and yes | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | the region locking | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | which makes no sense | Mar 12 15:18 |
MinceR | only nexus devices get the updates when google updates android | Mar 12 15:18 |
MinceR | and there are good reasons for some of the delays | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | but samsung could at least use a metallic frame on their phones to add some resistance to screen | Mar 12 15:20 |
Sosumi | just in case someone accidentally sited on the phone | Mar 12 15:20 |
Sosumi | or applied some pressure | Mar 12 15:20 |
*abeNd-org (~kklenke@rrcs-50-84-221-254.sw.biz.rr.com) has joined #techrights | Mar 12 15:21 | |
Sosumi | or at least make the phone bulky | Mar 12 15:21 |
Sosumi | if they must indeed use plastic | Mar 12 15:21 |
Sosumi | it is just bad that the htc is kind of going under | Mar 12 15:21 |

MinceR | how do metal frames do in drop tests? | Mar 12 15:25 |
Sosumi | they get scratches | Mar 12 15:25 |
MinceR | sure, but does the display stay in one piece, does the phone keep working? | Mar 12 15:26 |
MinceR | all the drop tests i've seen resulted in an unusable phone | Mar 12 15:26 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 12 15:26 |
Sosumi | I just mentioned into resistance to deformation | Mar 12 15:26 |
Sosumi | from sitting on the top of the phone | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | and even if the phone is made of plastic | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | those smartphonesa with big screen | Mar 12 15:27 |
msb__ | US support for fascist groups in Venezuela, and US media lying that the V govt is the source of the violence is the same strategy that the US just used in Ukraine. | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | I recomend to never let them fall | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | venezuela, US sponsored opposition promoting distabilization and bolivar governement not being of much help to the future survival of the country | Mar 12 15:29 |
Sosumi | of which in my opinion, was modeled after chaves personality | Mar 12 15:29 |
Sosumi | and dies with him | Mar 12 15:29 |
Sosumi | *died | Mar 12 15:29 |
msb__ | Sadly, MinceR favors the US and the internal fascists in both cases, posting an article calling socialism a "mad experiment", and in his comment, a "dream world". | Mar 12 15:30 |
Sosumi | socialism is a mad experiment | Mar 12 15:30 |
msb__ | Capitalism that is not severely regulated is a murderous psychopath experiment. | Mar 12 15:31 |
Sosumi | but so is anarcho/neo/degenerate-liberal and libertarian capitalism | Mar 12 15:32 |
msb__ | same thing | Mar 12 15:32 |
Sosumi | that is why when it comes to those things | Mar 12 15:32 |
msb__ | ...capitalism that is not severely regulated | Mar 12 15:32 |
Sosumi | I recommend the balanced approach | Mar 12 15:33 |
msb__ | Social democracy works. | Mar 12 15:33 |
Sosumi | with the required regulations and safety nets so that no one gets the shaft | Mar 12 15:33 |
msb__ | So does democratic socialism when it isn't attacked by fascists. | Mar 12 15:34 |
Sosumi | and if they do get the shaft, well, at least try to minize the damage done | Mar 12 15:34 |
msb__ | Sosumi: yes | Mar 12 15:34 |
Sosumi | also, social democracy doesn't work | Mar 12 15:34 |
Sosumi | people are too misguided | Mar 12 15:34 |
Sosumi | to the point they'd probably vote in for their own enslavement | Mar 12 15:34 |
msb__ | That occurs because corporate media lies to them, so they don't know what's going on, and thus whom to vote for. | Mar 12 15:35 |
msb__ | ...for their own benefit. | Mar 12 15:35 |
Sosumi | corporate media tells what fits the needs of their parent companies | Mar 12 15:36 |
Sosumi | I wander since when was the duty of media to tell the truth | Mar 12 15:36 |

msb__ | Yes, which is exactly the opposite of what fits the needs of the people. | Mar 12 15:37 |
Sosumi | well, if the people don't know better | Mar 12 15:37 |
msb__ | It was always the duty, but rarely the actuality. | Mar 12 15:37 |
Sosumi | let them suffer | Mar 12 15:37 |
msb__ | That's an anti-human idea. | Mar 12 15:37 |
Sosumi | that is a realistic idea | Mar 12 15:38 |
msb__ | So you think people should suffer if they are lied to by Bernays-style massive propaganda. | Mar 12 15:38 |
Sosumi | can you be stressed out by people of which you tell how things are | Mar 12 15:38 |
Sosumi | yest they continue to do the same over and over again | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | that is the very definition of madness | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | just like repeating the same experiment and expecting different result | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | *results | Mar 12 15:39 |
msb__ | please reformulate. I could not parse that sentence starting with "can you..." | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | I'm working... | Mar 12 15:40 |
Sosumi | not even looked at the irc window | Mar 12 15:40 |
Sosumi | can you stress yourself out about people that even presented with the information | Mar 12 15:41 |
Sosumi | continue to do the same crap? | Mar 12 15:41 |
Sosumi | I can't | Mar 12 15:41 |
msb__ | There are only a few people who access accurate info, ie, on the Web. | Mar 12 15:42 |
Sosumi | just on the web? | Mar 12 15:42 |
Sosumi | what about books | Mar 12 15:42 |
msb__ | Pretty much. | Mar 12 15:43 |
msb__ | They don't reach many people. | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | what about many of the ideals that still predominate today? like the works of malthus | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | what about Carrol quigley's books? | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | what about charles goulton darwin's books? | Mar 12 15:44 |
msb__ | I just read that he was in favor of rule by a wealthy few. | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | they're probably on a library near you | Mar 12 15:44 |
msb__ | (quigley) | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | all filled with dust | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | the info is there | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | for the ones that care to look at | Mar 12 15:44 |
msb__ | They don't talk about current fascist takeovers, which is what people need to know about. | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | what about current "fascist" takeovers? | Mar 12 15:45 |
Sosumi | what ukraine? | Mar 12 15:45 |
msb__ | Ukraine, Libya, attempts in Venezuela, Syria | Mar 12 15:45 |
Sosumi | there have been plenty of them through history | Mar 12 15:45 |
Sosumi | in order to formulate a pattern | Mar 12 15:46 |
Sosumi | if people actually cared to study historic precedents to war, revolutions and so on | Mar 12 15:46 |
Sosumi | they'd understand | Mar 12 15:46 |
msb__ | People are programmed not to think by JCI religion, schooling, etc. They need to have the patterns described for them so they can easily understand. | Mar 12 15:47 |
Sosumi | that's a poor excuse | Mar 12 15:48 |
Sosumi | programming? what programming? | Mar 12 15:48 |
Sosumi | they just teach you at school the basics | Mar 12 15:48 |

msb__ | No, at school -- grades 1 to 12 -- you are taught to believe what you're told, not question it, and regurgitate it, else you are punished. | Mar 12 15:50 |
Sosumi | I was never punished for questioning | Mar 12 15:50 |
msb__ | Possibly the unnoticed programming is responsible for your belief that people who are flooded with lying propaganda deserve to suffer. | Mar 12 15:51 |

msb__ | Not much, if they are programmed not to think. | Mar 12 15:53 |
Sosumi | ho yes, the poor victim who can't discern what is good and what is bad | Mar 12 15:53 |
msb__ | Because they swim in a sea of lies. | Mar 12 15:53 |
Sosumi | do them? | Mar 12 15:53 |
msb__ | That's the Bernays technique. Are you familiar with it? | Mar 12 15:53 |
Sosumi | or they just swim through their xbox library and tv channels | Mar 12 15:53 |
Sosumi | and do not care about anything else | Mar 12 15:54 |

Sosumi | so instead of giving him directions | Mar 12 15:57 |
Sosumi | I solve the exercise for him | Mar 12 15:57 |

Sosumi | and ppl continue suffering the repercussions to this day | Mar 12 16:05 |
msb__ | You have changed the topic of conversation away from your total lack of empathy for populations lied to by ubiquitous fascist proganda. | Mar 12 16:05 |
Sosumi | so the kill counter is still ticking | Mar 12 16:05 |
Sosumi | what empathy? | Mar 12 16:06 |
msb__ | Because you can't deal with that topic. | Mar 12 16:06 |
msb__ | Exactly -- you have none. That is the definition of a sociopath/psychopath. | Mar 12 16:06 |

msb__ | ? | Mar 12 16:08 |

Sosumi | so they couldn't be unplugged | Mar 12 16:08 |
Sosumi | and even at first neo had trouble accepting his new reality | Mar 12 16:09 |

Sosumi | by mentioning the movie | Mar 12 16:09 |
Sosumi | which was bad | Mar 12 16:09 |
msb__ | I'm talking about the vast majority of people who have not been "unplugged". You say they deserve the results of their programmed ignorance. | Mar 12 16:09 |

Sosumi | but do the people want the information you're giving them? | Mar 12 16:20 |
Sosumi | did they ASK for it? | Mar 12 16:20 |
Sosumi | that goes to the point of saying jesus died to save us from our sin | Mar 12 16:21 |
Sosumi | but how many did actually want to be saved? | Mar 12 16:21 |
Sosumi | or actually knew what salvation was? | Mar 12 16:21 |
Sosumi | got the point? | Mar 12 16:22 |
Sosumi | messiah msb__ | Mar 12 16:22 |
msb__ | Obviously you don't, Sosumi. You have no empathy, you said "<Sosumi> shiklegruber was actually a kewl guy", and you are ignorant of Bernays. | Mar 12 16:22 |
cubezzz | I wouldn't give a linux disc to an Amish person :) | Mar 12 16:22 |
Sosumi | well, or the messiah msb__ would have to save them from the evils of technology | Mar 12 16:23 |

cubezzz | people are pretty ignorant though | Mar 12 16:24 |

cubezzz | but there has to be some level of willingness to learn for anyone to absorb useful info | Mar 12 16:25 |
Sosumi | follower of the church of ted kashinski | Mar 12 16:25 |
cubezzz | Kaczynski was a giant social misfit | Mar 12 16:25 |
Sosumi | but he did make valid points | Mar 12 16:25 |

Sosumi | Sosumi's heroes, Gotfried Leibnetz, Ben Franklin, Bill Cooper, Norbert Wiener | Mar 12 16:30 |
Sosumi | just to name a few | Mar 12 16:30 |
Sosumi | Paul fits into the neo-malthusion demagogy | Mar 12 16:31 |
*sebsebseb_ has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) | Mar 12 16:32 | |
Sosumi | along with the john p holdren | Mar 12 16:32 |
Sosumi | which has been proven wrong and wrong time after time | Mar 12 16:32 |
Sosumi | about the ideas of limits to grow | Mar 12 16:32 |
Sosumi | and it goes as I say | Mar 12 16:33 |
Sosumi | this planet and solar system wont last forever | Mar 12 16:33 |
Sosumi | so, spread the population throughout the solar system at first and then the universe | Mar 12 16:34 |
Sosumi | and it would actually create a much better pretext for a perpetual peace | Mar 12 16:34 |
Sosumi | instead of the club of rome ideal | Mar 12 16:35 |
Sosumi | of having man as the "enemy" of the environment | Mar 12 16:35 |
Sosumi | again, neo-malthusianism | Mar 12 16:35 |
Sosumi | and jokingly or not | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | my approach is one of the options on the iron mountain protocol | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | that bill cooper used to boast about | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | back when he was still alive | Mar 12 16:36 |
cubezzz | that's a fine idea except there aren't any other planets we can live on | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | terraform mars? | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | isn't there water on the moon? | Mar 12 16:37 |
cubezzz | no atmosphere to speak of | Mar 12 16:37 |
cubezzz | rather a big problem | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | what about sending self assembly autonomous biospeheres | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | there aren't any yet? | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | no problemo, just make them | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | instead of making tanks and airplanes | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | and waging war | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | and actually deplenting resources on useless crap | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | messiah msb__, went to talk to his earthly father for advice | Mar 12 16:39 |
cubezzz | sure, _if_ we had infinite energy and transmutation of element technology we could terraform Mars | Mar 12 16:39 |
cubezzz | and make Earth a lot better :) | Mar 12 16:40 |
Sosumi | well specially since such redirection | Mar 12 16:41 |
cubezzz | once you can change co2 into oxygen you got it made | Mar 12 16:41 |
Sosumi | would put to an end into finding better ways to blow ppl to bits | Mar 12 16:42 |
Sosumi | and would phase out the military industrial complex | Mar 12 16:42 |
Sosumi | in the way that they'd still get the bucks | Mar 12 16:42 |
Sosumi | but by doing something good | Mar 12 16:42 |
cubezzz | nuclear fusion tech would help a lot | Mar 12 16:42 |
Sosumi | yes it would | Mar 12 16:43 |
Sosumi | I was actually happy about hearing the news that came from the laurence livermore lab | Mar 12 16:43 |
Sosumi | at least it confirmed that the pursuit of fusion isn't dead yet | Mar 12 16:43 |
cubezzz | cold fusion turned out to be a lemon | Mar 12 16:44 |
Sosumi | cold fusion is only popular with the UFOol folks | Mar 12 16:47 |
Sosumi | those have been the ones boasting about it | Mar 12 16:47 |
Sosumi | as for me, I'm not saying it is impossble | Mar 12 16:47 |
Sosumi | *impossible | Mar 12 16:47 |
cubezzz | there's some talk of plants being able to transmute elements | Mar 12 16:48 |
Sosumi | but until further developments, grain of salt must be taken | Mar 12 16:48 |
Sosumi | transmute elements? like breaking them down for abortion? | Mar 12 16:49 |
Sosumi | *absorption | Mar 12 16:49 |
cubezzz | created additional selenium for example | Mar 12 16:49 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 12 16:49 |

Sosumi | that kind of biology doesn't fascinate me much | Mar 12 16:49 |
cubezzz | Komaki has conclusively proven that bacteria can transmute sodium into potassium | Mar 12 16:51 |
cubezzz | using very little energy | Mar 12 16:52 |
cubezzz | worth a look I'd say | Mar 12 16:52 |
Sosumi | I'll give it a read later | Mar 12 16:53 |
Sosumi | also, that is from Tom Bearden; I remember that guy | Mar 12 16:54 |
Sosumi | colonel I think? | Mar 12 16:54 |
Sosumi | who set himself in the search for Tesla's lost papers | Mar 12 16:55 |
Sosumi | about scalar waves | Mar 12 16:55 |
cubezzz | he does have a Phd I think | Mar 12 16:56 |
cubezzz | oh wait, maybe he doesn't :) | Mar 12 16:56 |
cubezzz | seems that Martin Gardner shot him down somewhat | Mar 12 16:57 |
cubezzz | but I've heard about the increase selenium produced by plants from other sources | Mar 12 16:57 |
Sosumi | he "had" one of which he bought | Mar 12 16:58 |
Sosumi | to some dubious organization | Mar 12 16:59 |
Sosumi | dr tom Bearden does sound much more fanciful to the coast to coast am type listener than just Tommy Bearden | Mar 12 17:00 |

Sosumi | yes the evil NSA? | Mar 12 17:20 |
Sosumi | or maybe the evil CIA | Mar 12 17:20 |
Sosumi | it's just funny how the NSA gets all the publicity while no mention to the CIA | Mar 12 17:22 |
Sosumi | it actually seems like someone or something is actually earning something by crippling the NSA | Mar 12 17:22 |

MinceR | 162753 < Sosumi> I recomend to never let them fall | Mar 12 18:55 |
MinceR | so do i | Mar 12 18:55 |
Sosumi | wait | Mar 12 18:56 |
Sosumi | I though I had said that the balanced approach was the best approach | Mar 12 18:56 |
MinceR | to what? | Mar 12 18:57 |
Sosumi | neither extreme socialism | Mar 12 18:58 |
Sosumi | nos extreme anarchy | Mar 12 18:59 |
MinceR | ic | Mar 12 18:59 |
MinceR | well, i agree with that | Mar 12 18:59 |
cubezzz | no to anarchy certainly :) | Mar 12 18:59 |
Sosumi | aka degenerate liberalism/libertarianism | Mar 12 18:59 |
msb__ | "<MinceR> sadly, msb__ favors dictatorships so long as they call themselves "socialist" or "communist"" MinceR is lying. I never said any such thing. I said I favor social democracy or democratic socialism. Never a dictatorship. | Mar 12 19:00 |
Sosumi | and I don't see were I wrote that "I recomend to never let them fall" | Mar 12 19:00 |
cubezzz | cubelog is watching you all :) | Mar 12 19:00 |
MinceR | yes, and dictatorships like to call themselves "socialist", "communist", "people's democratic republic", etc. | Mar 12 19:00 |
MinceR | i see beyond the curtain, msb__ does not. | Mar 12 19:00 |
Sosumi | the messiah msb__ is back after consulting with his earthly father | Mar 12 19:01 |
Sosumi | or was it heavenly *canabis breath* father | Mar 12 19:01 |
msb__ | Great, the two lying psychopaths are attacking me together. | Mar 12 19:01 |
cubezzz | can't we just make derisive comments about microsoft like the olden days? | Mar 12 19:02 |
Sosumi | "I recommend to never let them fall" was in reference to the metallic made smartphones | Mar 12 19:03 |
cubezzz | j/k somewhat | Mar 12 19:03 |
MinceR | as usual, msb__ ornaments his authoritarianist/fascist/communist propaganda with the occasional lie and name-calling. | Mar 12 19:04 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 12 19:04 |
MinceR | Sosumi: i thought it was in reference to all smartphones regardless of metal content :> | Mar 12 19:04 |

cubezzz | I've actually thought about making my own distro | Mar 12 19:09 |
Sosumi | not another gnu/linux distro | Mar 12 19:11 |
Sosumi | that'd be kind of a downer | Mar 12 19:11 |
Sosumi | instead | Mar 12 19:12 |
Sosumi | why not a gnu/hurd distro | Mar 12 19:12 |
Sosumi | or from what I've seen in the past | Mar 12 19:12 |
Sosumi | back in 2008 | Mar 12 19:12 |

cubezzz | I think it's still around | Mar 12 19:13 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-cubexyz.blogspot.ca | Notes on Linux: The Eternal Distro [ http://ur1.ca/gtvp8 ] | Mar 12 19:30 | |
Sosumi | I think the idea is great, but at the same kind of comparing to running the marathon with a leg tied behind my back | Mar 12 19:43 |
Sosumi | given the amount of hardware that gets dumped each year | Mar 12 19:43 |
Sosumi | specially from the gamer croud | Mar 12 19:43 |
Sosumi | *crowd | Mar 12 19:44 |
Sosumi | everyone and you could always get cheap upgrades | Mar 12 19:44 |
Sosumi | and a p3 is ancient | Mar 12 19:45 |
Sosumi | specially a 500Mhz | Mar 12 19:45 |
Sosumi | and the thing is just not about the upgrade treadmill | Mar 12 19:47 |
Sosumi | but as the complexity of the software increases so does the need for faster hardware | Mar 12 19:48 |
Sosumi | and I'm in doubt | Mar 12 19:48 |
Sosumi | for things like a server, doesn't the current version of fedora run on a p3? | Mar 12 19:49 |
cubezzz | read Vance Packard "The Waste Makers" and you might change your mind | Mar 12 19:49 |
MinceR | even the complexity of the data increases :> | Mar 12 19:49 |
Sosumi | hardly, when I buy faster hardware is mostly because I outgrew what I had | Mar 12 19:50 |
cubezzz | I found newer Fedora less reliable to be honest | Mar 12 19:50 |
MinceR | and that of websites, unfortunately | Mar 12 19:50 |
cubezzz | well badly designed web designs is a poor excuse | Mar 12 19:50 |
cubezzz | we live in a society of waste, it's well over the top | Mar 12 19:52 |
Sosumi | but that waste brings progress and further advancement | Mar 12 19:52 |
Sosumi | what could be considered waste | Mar 12 19:53 |
cubezzz | ewaste, the world's full of it | Mar 12 19:54 |
Sosumi | is the use and trow away tech | Mar 12 19:54 |
Sosumi | like those prebuilt computers with no standard parts | Mar 12 19:54 |
cubezzz | plastics, chip fab, all need highly caustic chemicals | Mar 12 19:54 |
cubezzz | which end up in your soil | Mar 12 19:55 |
cubezzz | I'm merely suggesting cutting back on that | Mar 12 19:55 |
cubezzz | well I would suggest not buying bic-lighter computers :) | Mar 12 19:57 |
Sosumi | the biggest factor contributing to that is consumer tech | Mar 12 19:57 |
Sosumi | I don't see how it'd be possible to cut on that | Mar 12 19:58 |
Sosumi | ppl want crap, manufacturers give them crap | Mar 12 19:59 |
MinceR | manufacturers also make crap that nobody wants | Mar 12 19:59 |
MinceR | i.e. winblows phone phones | Mar 12 19:59 |
cubezzz | I don't think people really want crap, I think they just aren't thinking about it | Mar 12 19:59 |
Sosumi | I'm certainly not the one buying a big tv totally overblown colors | Mar 12 20:00 |
MinceR | people want crap so much they're willing to pay more for worse | Mar 12 20:00 |
MinceR | for example, for hypePhones | Mar 12 20:00 |
Sosumi | hypePhones, bang & ollufsen, etc | Mar 12 20:01 |
cubezzz | I like getting an old computer and fixing it up | Mar 12 20:01 |
Sosumi | fit into the model of a huge price premium just for the sake of exclusivity | Mar 12 20:01 |
Sosumi | and "perceived value" | Mar 12 20:02 |
cubezzz | "The Hidden Persauders" 1957 :) | Mar 12 20:02 |
cubezzz | also by Vance Packard | Mar 12 20:02 |
Sosumi | Bernays mentioned that on his book Propaganda, messiah complex msb__ | Mar 12 20:02 |
cubezzz | Sun Microsystems had a lot of very interesting ideas to make computers more reliable | Mar 12 20:03 |
Sosumi | "had" | Mar 12 20:03 |
Sosumi | I'm still longing for a new sparc station or powerstation | Mar 12 20:03 |
cubezzz | I think Sun Oracle still sell servers | Mar 12 20:04 |
cubezzz | no idea what the prices are, I assume big $$$ | Mar 12 20:04 |
Sosumi | yes, just servers | Mar 12 20:04 |
cubezzz | glibc is bloated too | Mar 12 20:06 |
cubezzz | hence the creation of dietlibc | Mar 12 20:09 |
cubezzz | the funny part about this is I've had this same convo 10 years ago :) | Mar 12 20:14 |
cubezzz | "come on, systems these days need at least 256 megs of ram" | Mar 12 20:14 |
cubezzz | "get rid of that crappy Pentium 1" | Mar 12 20:14 |
MinceR | one problem with the Eternal Distro is that at some point some packages would cease to receive security updates | Mar 12 20:15 |
MinceR | from upstream | Mar 12 20:15 |
cubezzz | 2.11BSD still gets patches | Mar 12 20:19 |
cubezzz | but that doesn't run on actual hardware in my case | Mar 12 20:20 |
cubezzz | some packages in openbsd are from the 90's | Mar 12 20:22 |
cubezzz | some stuff gets orphaned, the creator loses interest, it happens | Mar 12 20:25 |
MinceR | does it update applications and libraries that are 4 or more stable major releases ahead of what it ships? :> | Mar 12 20:28 |
MinceR | at some point, the upstream developer's response to requests for security fixes becomes "just upgrade already, that release is 10 years old!" :> | Mar 12 20:29 |
MinceR | there's only so many releases they can maintain simultaneously | Mar 12 20:29 |

Sosumi | :( | Mar 12 21:41 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: however he has donated all his computer stuff to Mageia it seems | Mar 12 21:42 |
Sosumi | that was a honorable thing to do | Mar 12 21:44 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: yeah well he had like three computers i THINK | Mar 12 21:44 |
sebsebseb | pluswhatever else | Mar 12 21:44 |
sebsebseb | and Magiea was his life at the end and very much so | Mar 12 21:44 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: even when he was rather unwell he e | Mar 12 21:44 |
sebsebseb | he felt bad that he coudn't just contribute anymore | Mar 12 21:44 |
Sosumi | how old was he? | Mar 12 21:45 |
sebsebseb | 50 something | Mar 12 21:45 |
Sosumi | well you know | Mar 12 21:46 |
Sosumi | life is short and he did use his limited time to make it count | Mar 12 21:46 |
sebsebseb | yeah | Mar 12 21:47 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 12 21:47 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: also I am wondeirng what has happended to someone else | Mar 12 21:47 |
sebsebseb | that been chatting a lot to online | Mar 12 21:47 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she might have died as well, I really don't know | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | and no way to just find out etc | Mar 12 21:48 |
Sosumi | also involved in mageia? | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | nope | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: just a girl I came across online (or whoever they really are) | Mar 12 21:49 |
sebsebseb | ,but also one that woudn't do anything, but online text hmm | Mar 12 21:49 |
sebsebseb | well ok I saw some photos to, but that's it | Mar 12 21:49 |
Sosumi | online on irc? | Mar 12 21:49 |

sebsebseb | not IRC | Mar 12 21:49 |
Sosumi | have you seen if she changed the nick? | Mar 12 21:50 |
Sosumi | or probably just moved over onto something else | Mar 12 21:50 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she only has me on the particular chat account apparnatly to | Mar 12 21:51 |
sebsebseb | and won't just add to Facebook and uh | Mar 12 21:51 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: so basically I just lose contact | Mar 12 21:52 |

sebsebseb | Sosumi: I can't really explain stuff properly enough, but this person wow | Mar 12 21:52 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 12 21:52 |
sebsebseb | ,but then issues | Mar 12 21:53 |
sebsebseb | plus got in contact wht someone else, and then she tsopped chatting to me loads etc | Mar 12 21:53 |
sebsebseb | and uh | Mar 12 21:53 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ,but really annoyingly the communication issues | Mar 12 21:53 |
Sosumi | communication issues in what sense? improper language? | Mar 12 21:54 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no as in refusing to do anything more than just instant messagingin | Mar 12 21:54 |
sebsebseb | and occasioan emails maybe | Mar 12 21:54 |
sebsebseb | and not adding me onto whatever account hte other guy is on etc | Mar 12 21:54 |
sebsebseb | or Facebook even etc | Mar 12 21:55 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and not doing any voice thing, SKype or some other voip thing, or the phone even | Mar 12 21:55 |
sebsebseb | anyway it's been about four months now, and she may not be coming back this time it seems | Mar 12 21:55 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she may have got a bit upset at me in the last chat in fact as well | Mar 12 21:56 |
Sosumi | was she good looking? | Mar 12 21:56 |
Sosumi | had to ask ;) | Mar 12 21:56 |
sebsebseb | yeah I guess or enough | Mar 12 21:56 |
sebsebseb | ,but it's the personality what she is like and such, that's the wow | Mar 12 21:56 |
sebsebseb | except for the communicaiotn issues | Mar 12 21:56 |
sebsebseb | and things like that | Mar 12 21:57 |
Sosumi | how so? | Mar 12 21:57 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: eh nevermind | Mar 12 21:58 |
Sosumi | then I'll just my fertile imagination to draw a picture of her :P | Mar 12 21:59 |
Sosumi | *use | Mar 12 21:59 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: oh you mean looks? | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: uhmm she has brown hair it seems | Mar 12 22:00 |
Sosumi | I meant her personality | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she's not the averare girl | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | really isn't the averaet girl | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | a rare find | Mar 12 22:00 |
Sosumi | since that was the WoW factor | Mar 12 22:00 |
Sosumi | tell tell | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | and I foundher onine, and then uh everything changed hmm | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | after about 8 months | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | shame | Mar 12 22:00 |
Sosumi | you still didn't explain what was WOWing about her | Mar 12 22:01 |
Sosumi | but it is ok :) | Mar 12 22:02 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: you won't realy understandl | Mar 12 22:02 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: it's just the chats we had and such | Mar 12 22:02 |
sebsebseb | that's the wow | Mar 12 22:02 |
sebsebseb | how well we got on etc | Mar 12 22:02 |
sebsebseb | well until most stuff changed, and changed a lot changed pretty much completly really even uh :( | Mar 12 22:02 |
Sosumi | you fell in love | Mar 12 22:05 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: yeah basically as far as net went, but keeping reality in mind, not voiced, notmet etc, and them probably not realy feeliing the same way or not quite | Mar 12 22:06 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 12 22:06 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and then she came across some guy who was more interesting than me | Mar 12 22:06 |
sebsebseb | online | Mar 12 22:06 |
sebsebseb | and yep everthing chaned | Mar 12 22:06 |
sebsebseb | and changed a lot | Mar 12 22:06 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and we went from chatting nearly every day | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | to hardly at all | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | loads of periods of lots of weeks no chat | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | her not on etc | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | ,but now it's been the longest one, so I am wondeirng what's going on | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | ,because of helath issues etc | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | uh | Mar 12 22:07 |
Sosumi | did she have health issues? | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | yep | Mar 12 22:07 |
Sosumi | complicated? | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | sure | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | some pretty bad stuff by the soundsof it | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | ,but don't realy understnad most of it | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | the medical terms etc | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and one time she had apendicious andn earlydied, whist away apparnatly, you see why I am a bit worried etc | Mar 12 22:09 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 12 22:09 |
sebsebseb | and no it's not, just go find some other girl to get ot know all properly like that, it doesn't work that way | Mar 12 22:09 |
sebsebseb | really hard to find someone like what I found | Mar 12 22:09 |
Sosumi | wait then | Mar 12 22:10 |
Sosumi | a month or two | Mar 12 22:10 |
Sosumi | but then better move on | Mar 12 22:10 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no I mean got to find someone in person or online | Mar 12 22:10 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ,but | Mar 12 22:10 |
sebsebseb | online uh that doesn't really work usaully | Mar 12 22:10 |
sebsebseb | 99% of the time | Mar 12 22:10 |
Sosumi | I've no idea | Mar 12 22:11 |
Sosumi | since I don't "date" online | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | and in person I don't really know enough girls at the moment | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I don't mean a date neassirely | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I mean soeone to get to know, to build up a special freindship with at least | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | oh and that happens to be a girl as well | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: if I want to chat to guys online, well that's easy enough heh heh | Mar 12 22:12 |
sebsebseb | and yeah I mean a girl that lives nearish to me idealy as well | Mar 12 22:12 |
Sosumi | be patient, that is all I can say | Mar 12 22:13 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I am going afk | Mar 12 22:13 |
Sosumi | yeah | Mar 12 22:13 |

cubezzz | thanks :) | Mar 12 22:41 |
msb__ | cubezzz: Are you a KDE3 fan? | Mar 12 22:42 |
cubezzz | yeah, pretty much | Mar 12 22:42 |
cubezzz | I use a variety of window managers | Mar 12 22:42 |
msb__ | Me too. | Mar 12 22:42 |
cubezzz | gnome2, icewm, mwm, a couple of KDE 3.X's, xfce | Mar 12 22:43 |
msb__ | I don't mess with the system much, just stay with KDE3.5 and some KDE4 apps. | Mar 12 22:44 |
msb__ | But I've written a lot of bash scripts. | Mar 12 22:44 |

msb__ | Looks like old sunview or xeroxparc. | Mar 12 22:46 |
msb__ | No taskbar or desktop switcher? | Mar 12 22:46 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/sunview-desktop.png | Mar 12 22:46 |
cubezzz | :) | Mar 12 22:46 |
cubezzz | iconbox is a sort of taskbar | Mar 12 22:47 |
msb__ | ok, different style 8^) | Mar 12 22:47 |
cubezzz | that tiny font on sunview would drive me nuts | Mar 12 22:48 |
cubezzz | I can run KDE 3.5 and mwm at the same time | Mar 12 22:48 |
msb__ | I've taken to using the KDE4 magnifier app sometimes. | Mar 12 22:49 |
cubezzz | I'm a fairly good motif programmer :) | Mar 12 22:49 |
cubezzz | KDE4 was just too slow on my old computers | Mar 12 22:49 |
cubezzz | I use reading glasses but I hate using glasses when I'm on a computer | Mar 12 22:50 |
cubezzz | I'd rather just make the font bigger | Mar 12 22:50 |
msb__ | I don't like KDE4's whole style, and you can't read the desktop names in the desktop switcher ("pager") so I dumped it. | Mar 12 22:50 |
msb__ | Multiple desktops are vital to me. | Mar 12 22:51 |
cubezzz | you can run more than one window manager remember | Mar 12 22:52 |
msb__ | Why would I need more than KDE3? | Mar 12 22:52 |
cubezzz | xinit mwm -- :8 | Mar 12 22:53 |
cubezzz | well, I wanted to experiment and improve my X window system knowledge | Mar 12 22:53 |
cubezzz | plus mwm is motif based so... a chance to learn more about motif | Mar 12 22:54 |
MinceR | a chance to learn why nobody uses motif anymore :> | Mar 12 22:54 |
cubezzz | I use it :) | Mar 12 22:54 |
MinceR | "bro, do you even ewmh?" | Mar 12 22:54 |
msb__ | Sounds nasty. | Mar 12 22:55 |
cubezzz | I did say I run KDE3.5 as well :) | Mar 12 22:55 |
MinceR | i use mwm at work, i'm not a big fan of it :> | Mar 12 22:55 |
MinceR | of course, it still beats windows | Mar 12 22:55 |
MinceR | and macos | Mar 12 22:55 |
msb__ | One thing I want to learn is graphics programming in X. I have some starter code somewhere. | Mar 12 22:56 |
cubezzz | I feel I can understand mwm source better than KDE3.5 source | Mar 12 22:56 |
MinceR | i haven't looked at mwm source yet | Mar 12 22:57 |
MinceR | i've coded an application for kde3 once, though :> | Mar 12 22:57 |
msb__ | These days I only make the effort to understand stuff when I need to. It's a big world. I was pissed when transistors came along and replaced glowing warm vacuum tubes. | Mar 12 22:58 |
MinceR | i'm still curious | Mar 12 22:58 |
msb__ | And again when ICs replaced discretes so I couldn't trace inside them. | Mar 12 22:59 |
*DrPizza (~DrPizza@lunix.quiscalusmexicanus.org) has joined #techrights | Mar 12 22:59 | |
msb__ | I'm curious too, but I have limited time. | Mar 12 22:59 |
cubezzz | it's not like I run something truely ancient like xwm :) | Mar 12 23:00 |
msb__ | Mostly I want to figure out how to help restore a conscious culture like in the 1960s. | Mar 12 23:00 |
MinceR | i haven't even seen xwm | Mar 12 23:00 |
MinceR | when i started using X, twm was already what shipped with XFree86 by default | Mar 12 23:01 |
MinceR | (then again, XFree86 might never had xwm, for all i know) | Mar 12 23:01 |
cubezzz | when was that MinceR ? | Mar 12 23:01 |
MinceR | around 2000, i think | Mar 12 23:01 |
cubezzz | yeah xwm is pretty old | Mar 12 23:02 |
cubezzz | that's getting into the X11R2 era, around 1988 | Mar 12 23:03 |
cubezzz | pre-linux :) | Mar 12 23:03 |
MinceR | :) | Mar 12 23:03 |
cubezzz | so Ultrix, or ummm | Mar 12 23:05 |
cubezzz | 4.3BSD-Tahoe I suppose | Mar 12 23:05 |
msb__ | My favorite bash script is called "p". If you do p filename while in the directory containing a file, it loads the FQ pathname of the file into the mouse clipboard. | Mar 12 23:06 |
msb__ | Text mode drag n drop! | Mar 12 23:06 |
cubezzz | well you can just hilight in konsole -> klipper | Mar 12 23:07 |
msb__ | Copy or move any file from one xterm (konsole) to another. And with mc in the console, you don't even have to type the filename. | Mar 12 23:07 |
msb__ | cubezzz: Won't that just get the filename, not the path from root? | Mar 12 23:08 |
cubezzz | I can just hilight the whole path | Mar 12 23:08 |
msb__ | But then you have to display the whole path first? | Mar 12 23:08 |
cubezzz | /mnt/e/old-x11/X.V10R3/xwm/xwm.h | Mar 12 23:09 |
cubezzz | ta da :) | Mar 12 23:09 |
cubezzz | yes, locate xwm.h then hilight since I can't remember where it is | Mar 12 23:09 |
msb__ | So you run "locate" to do that. Can take a few seconds. | Mar 12 23:10 |
msb__ | And then you have to run the cursor from one end of that text to the other, to hilite it. | Mar 12 23:10 |
cubezzz | let's see your script | Mar 12 23:11 |
msb__ | I just have to type "p %s" and then alt-enter and enter | Mar 12 23:12 |
msb__ | in mc | Mar 12 23:12 |

msb__ | There used to be an xsel app that came with xfree86, but it's not in the present X. So I had to find another way to stuff the clipboard. | Mar 12 23:18 |
cubezzz | ah, I'd have to adjust that to use it | Mar 12 23:19 |
cubezzz | no libqt4 on that box | Mar 12 23:20 |
MinceR | there's a separate xsel package on debian | Mar 12 23:21 |
msb__ | I think I maintained the same command-line syntax in my xsel script as in the original xsel program, so if that debian one still works, it should replace mine with all its qdbus jazz. | Mar 12 23:24 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 12 23:24 |
MinceR | the distro you're using might have a separate xsel package as well | Mar 12 23:24 |
msb__ | Nope. First thing I checked. | Mar 12 23:24 |
msb__ | I also use an "xs" script, which is simply: xsel $* | Mar 12 23:27 |

DaemonFC | I was wondering why the bank didn't foreclose on her house sooner. | Mar 13 07:51 |
DaemonFC | Apparently, she had about $54,000 in her bank account when she died, so they kept making her house payment out of that until the money ran out. | Mar 13 07:52 |
DaemonFC | Still doesn't explain why nobody found her body for 6 years. | Mar 13 07:53 |
DaemonFC | You'd think the neighbors would be complaining about an overgrown lawn, or that her employer might notice that she didn't show up for work. | Mar 13 07:53 |
DaemonFC | A neighbor was mowing her lawn and she was laid off from Chrysler in 2008. | Mar 13 07:55 |

Both mean that people have no privacy in Google, but the worse of the two is the U SAP AT RIOT ACT that demands Google cooperate and lie about it. Schmidt should rather step down than cooperate but | Mar 13 10:53 |

schestowitz__ | Both [Jared and I] felt that who gets to decide what information is public is a pretty fundamental issue in a democracy, and our general view is that we don't want random people leaking large amounts of data. We don't want random people leaking large amounts of health records or tax records - I don't think that serves society. It's better to have other mechanisms for whistleblowers that don't involve the data permanence problem; | Mar 13 10:53 |
schestowitz__ | because the information, once disclosed, is there forever and can be used against people. | Mar 13 10:53 |
schestowitz__ | That's really wrong and unless it's out of context it is a very evil twist on what whistle blowers and Wikileaks or Snowden in particular are doing. Neither simply dump private information, the organizations are set up to carefully expose public crime. This article makes it look like there's a conflict between Schmidt, and Wikileaks or Snowden, but it might be that they were all in agreement and this is selective quoting. | Mar 13 10:53 |

Sosumi | EPP? | Mar 13 17:48 |
MinceR | european people's party | Mar 13 17:48 |
MinceR | the same organization fidesz and kdnp are members of | Mar 13 17:48 |
MinceR | and where most of the european governments belong currently | Mar 13 17:48 |
MinceR | perhaps it's time for europeans to come to their fucking senses and stop supporting these fundamentalist parties | Mar 13 17:49 |
Sosumi | ho the PSD group | Mar 13 17:49 |

cubezzz | MinceR, so has Hungary switched more to linux now? | Mar 13 17:56 |
MinceR | i don't know | Mar 13 17:56 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz__: Yeah, my first job was a union job. | Mar 13 17:56 |
MinceR | from what i see, the country is still a wretched hive of m$ cultism | Mar 13 17:56 |
DaemonFC | They got us decent pay and good health insurance. Short and Long Term Disability insurance. Good dental insurance. | Mar 13 17:57 |
MinceR | people clinging to their unusable crap with 10 fingers | Mar 13 17:57 |
DaemonFC | The union had what was basically a backdoor dues system. | Mar 13 17:57 |
MinceR | they seem to love their crappy vista7 and their craptastic exchange and outlook | Mar 13 17:57 |
DaemonFC | They had a "pension plan" where the company would contribute like 50 cents per hour worked, but you had to work there 7 years or else you didn't qualify to get any of your pension back. | Mar 13 17:58 |
MinceR | the government are a bunch of crApple cultists | Mar 13 17:58 |
DaemonFC | So the union just made off with all the pension money I earned during the two years I was there. | Mar 13 17:58 |
cubezzz | some Hungarian teachers made SuliX and also Frugalware is Hugarian | Mar 13 17:58 |
MinceR | yeah, there's a bit of resistance | Mar 13 17:58 |
MinceR | on the other hand, mobile and Android are taking over here too, it seems | Mar 13 18:00 |
MinceR | so maybe m$ will end up losing due to the PC being marginalized here as well | Mar 13 18:00 |
cubezzz | things are changing, as they always do | Mar 13 18:00 |
cubezzz | you mentioned you used mwm at work, what OS is that running on? | Mar 13 18:02 |
MinceR | a fork of SLED | Mar 13 18:03 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-@terminsane: @schestowitz yeh, its part of the NAU deal. Canadian politicians are being bought by US govt to give up canadian sovereignty | Mar 13 18:03 | |
MinceR | well, if it deserves to be called a fork | Mar 13 18:03 |
cubezzz | I wonder why they picked mwm | Mar 13 18:13 |
MinceR | probably because that system is ancient and mwm was modern when they started developing it :> | Mar 13 18:16 |
Sosumi | canada is part of the commonwealth | Mar 13 18:17 |
MinceR | i wonder if the monarch abuses her privileges there like in the uk | Mar 13 18:17 |
Sosumi | for that to happen, the british crown would have to give up sovereignty on canada | Mar 13 18:17 |
cubezzz | MinceR, I found that mwm does run faster than KDE 3.5 | Mar 13 18:18 |
MinceR | i'm pretty sure canadians could declare independence if they wanted to | Mar 13 18:18 |
cubezzz | uses less memory too | Mar 13 18:18 |
MinceR | fvwm uses even less memory, afaik :> | Mar 13 18:19 |
cubezzz | lol, I remember one guy who wouldn't even run X | Mar 13 18:19 |

DaemonFC | J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says: | Mar 13 18:23 |
DaemonFC | Unlike Laz, I am fair and impartial. When a company has been behaving badly, I don't try to sweep it all under the rug. | Mar 13 18:23 |
DaemonFC | In this case, it's a Samsung specific issue. If anyone can prove that my LG G2 has been similarly booby trapped, then I'll gladly eat some humble pie. | Mar 13 18:23 |
DaemonFC | The most disturbing part of this is that Samsung devices are all Google certified, so either Google knew of this backdoor in the proprietary libsamsung-ipc, and approved it anyway, or they overlooked it during the certification process. | Mar 13 18:23 |
DaemonFC | The problem with Android is that the version you get on actual devices always relies on some proprietary software. The thing that makes Apple worse is that iOS is almost completely proprietary and it is certainly not possible for anyone to ever release a corrected version of it without the spyware and backdoors. | Mar 13 18:23 |
DaemonFC | The beauty of Freedom respecting software is that if someone makes a version that does something nasty, someone else can come along and fix it, and that's exactly what Replicant's developers did in this case. They saw what libsamsung-ipc did, and replaced it with a fully Free library that stands in for it without the booby trap that Samsung put in theirs. | Mar 13 18:23 |
DaemonFC | On the whole, Android is a better choice than iOS, even if it has some of the same problems as iOS, because nobody can ever fix iOS and offer iPhone or iPad users a choice. The best that anyone can do with iOS is crack it, replace part of the OS, and open up the possibility of additional software sources, after voiding the warranty. | Mar 13 18:23 |
cubezzz | dude, it's like you're blogging _in_ IRC | Mar 13 18:23 |
DaemonFC | yeah :) | Mar 13 18:23 |
MinceR | i doubt google audits stuff like this for their certification | Mar 13 18:24 |
cubezzz | did mwm ever have a program to access the clipboard? | Mar 13 18:27 |
MinceR | isn't xsel good enough? :> | Mar 13 18:28 |

sebsebseb_ | schestowitz__: HI | Mar 13 21:20 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: DaemonFC Sosumi this Saturday | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | I got the oppertunity to uhmm | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | promote openSUSE with KDE to teh general public hmm | Mar 13 21:21 |
MinceR | ew | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | or | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | Ubuntu with UNity | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | or | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | Mint with Cinnamon | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | I think they pruposuly out voted Magiea and GNOME 3 in November, thinking I would just say it's better than the other stuff etc | Mar 13 21:22 |
Sosumi | mint with cinnamon for the lesser evil | Mar 13 21:22 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yeah or Ubuntu with UNity ? | Mar 13 21:22 |
Sosumi | hasn't Markie Shutleworm kind of fallen out of favor? | Mar 13 21:23 |
sebsebseb_ | well yes and no | Mar 13 21:23 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but htis event is aimed at general public | Mar 13 21:23 |
sebsebseb_ | not that technical people | Mar 13 21:23 |
sebsebseb_ | the idea is they pick an interface rather htan a distro | Mar 13 21:23 |
sebsebseb_ | or mainly pick something by interface | Mar 13 21:23 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 13 21:23 |
Sosumi | then it is a tie between mint and ubuntu | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | they will have the same kind of plymouth theme | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | and same kind of addiontal apps mainly | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | codecs etc | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yeah openSUSE pft | Mar 13 21:25 |
sebsebseb_ | plenty of other distros that do KDE good | Mar 13 21:25 |
sebsebseb_ | oh and Yast that aparnatly is so good uhmmm, there's that nice control centre in Magiea and such | Mar 13 21:25 |
Sosumi | DaemonFC, I've been using public transportation as of late, | Mar 13 21:25 |
MinceR | yeah, yast is so good | Mar 13 21:25 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: yeah that's sarcasm? | Mar 13 21:26 |
MinceR | for example, when i start yast from the icewm menu, it asks for the password and then does nothing | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | like saying oh, Yast is so amazing? when it's not? | Mar 13 21:26 |
MinceR | and when i start it from rxvt-native, the whole screen falls apart | Mar 13 21:26 |
Sosumi | with my current schedule, there is no point and I get to my destination way faster without the need to find a parking spot | Mar 13 21:26 |
MinceR | afaict it's rather ill-behaved | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | well at least the video that's going to be used for the event | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | makes it nice and clear in the open suse review | Mar 13 21:26 |
MinceR | then again, that's what i generally find with Microsoft Linux, SuSE Edition | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | that it's more for power users | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | that should put some peope off I guess :D | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | and KDE is all gekey etc | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | anyway seems I am heping in the demo area :) | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | where they get to play around with the three distros | Mar 13 21:27 |
Sosumi | KDE is cool, could be a lot better | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | means I can talk to people to then :D about stuff | Mar 13 21:27 |
MinceR | kde is not geeky | Mar 13 21:27 |
Sosumi | but still kewl | Mar 13 21:27 |
Sosumi | also nothing geeky about it | Mar 13 21:27 |
DaemonFC | The last time I used Yast, it crashed a lot, it was still using Qt3, which had been abandoned for 4 years upstream at that point, it was very slow updating the software list, it had conflicts between several repositories that OpenSUSE recommended, and the extension to deal with orphans was broken and could not be installed. | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | video first, demo area next, and then re mastered usb they get given else where and get to try on own machine if bought along | Mar 13 21:28 |
Sosumi | want to go geeky? just use the terminal | Mar 13 21:28 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: MinceR KDE looks like WIndows,but hten is realy geeky once trying to customise and such in my experience | Mar 13 21:28 |
sebsebseb_ | get in a mess to moving icons around and such | Mar 13 21:28 |
MinceR | i mean kde seems to be aimed at non-geeky users, with lots of eye candy and little flexibility | Mar 13 21:28 |
MinceR | since 4.x | Mar 13 21:28 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: I am not sure about that | Mar 13 21:28 |
MinceR | sure, it's not gnome3 :> | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but I Think what I just put still applys | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | once you start doing something more than just the basics | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | with KDE | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | get in a mess | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | that's why I put the background changer slide show on and that's about as far as I go when it comes to "trying" to cusotmise KDE | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | ,becuase I Have had it before, the icons being moved arounda ll over on the panel and not being able to put back, and the buncy ball enabled and not just being able to disable it and stuff like that | Mar 13 21:30 |
sebsebseb_ | Mageia is nice enough for KDE | Mar 13 21:30 |
sebsebseb_ | as are most distros really that run KDE, but yeah it's openSUSE with KDE | Mar 13 21:30 |
sebsebseb_ | for event | Mar 13 21:30 |
MinceR | stuff like that makes me value software that is configured via a text file :> | Mar 13 21:31 |
sebsebseb_ | stuff like what? | Mar 13 21:31 |
MinceR | like openbox and the lxde panel | Mar 13 21:31 |
MinceR | oh, wrong "stuff" | Mar 13 21:31 |
sebsebseb_ | I think i'll be in the demo area trying to sell Ubuntu or Mint :) | Mar 13 21:31 |
MinceR | stuff like KDE refusing to configure itself the way you want to | Mar 13 21:31 |
sebsebseb_ | someone else can do suse a bit | Mar 13 21:32 |
MinceR | or forgetting its settings :> | Mar 13 21:32 |
*sebsebseb_ appanratly is good at marketing stuff like this | Mar 13 21:32 | |
sebsebseb_ | I guess give peple osme perosnal opinons and such to | Mar 13 21:32 |
sebsebseb_ | and then let them decide | Mar 13 21:32 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: Sosumi however what got me started chatting about all this again is uhmm | Mar 13 21:32 |
sebsebseb_ | there's this other gorup that I go to, I gave a few flyers out before, about event, but still many peope won't know about it | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | people who may find it useful | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | or well some of them anyway | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | I was going to email the mailing list on Monday about the event, but I wasnt' happy with what I came up with each time I Tried etc | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | to geeky | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | I am going to be talking about events and so on next Thursday there as well it seems. ,but I am just thinking shoud I bother emailing them or not to the list | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | I Mean if I do that as wel, some may go to the event, and pick openSUSE uh | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | as well | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | openSUSE defiently has nice merchandice, but I woudn'treally recommend it as a distro to someone | Mar 13 21:34 |
MinceR | neither would i | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | KDE can run in plenty of other distros and nicely | Mar 13 21:35 |
sebsebseb_ | yast uhmmm well Magiea etc has the control centre so uhmm, who needs yast really?? | Mar 13 21:35 |
sebsebseb_ | why woudn't you recommend openSUSE? | Mar 13 21:35 |
sebsebseb_ | Mint has some settings type stuff to really | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | yast isn't needed | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: also to promote LInux to people from my other group, well it's a speaking group :d | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: so I don'treally ned them to come to an event such as this one on Saturday | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | that's what I am thinking | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | I can demo stuff on my netbook, an talk to people there about it, just genral talk, and sometimes in talks even | Mar 13 21:37 |
sebsebseb_ | and then there isn't just peopel going off to some distro I didn't really want them to as such I guess as well, well ok they still decide stuff, but I think you get what I Mean? | Mar 13 21:37 |
sebsebseb_ | if they go to event, they can pick up a remasterd USB, of Ubuntu, Mint, or openSUSE depending on what they choose | Mar 13 21:37 |
sebsebseb_ | I think main reason I am hmm to emailing there is since it will seem a bit off topic, and I'll just make myself look much more geeky maybe and yeah uh | Mar 13 21:38 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: comments? | Mar 13 21:40 |
MinceR | meh | Mar 13 21:40 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: looking like a geeek, to much,can seem bad | Mar 13 21:40 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: Sosumi Mint wel in for the event, since event is about live sessions | Mar 13 21:42 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but generally who needs Mint? | Mar 13 21:42 |
sebsebseb_ | can run CInnamon in other distros now quite a few :) plus there are other similar interfaces around and yeah | Mar 13 21:42 |
sebsebseb_ | I tried to get Mint out before sort of, and yeah | Mar 13 21:43 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: 38 Facebook likes the other day I Think | Mar 13 21:44 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: 54 when I lookd ealrier | Mar 13 21:44 |
sebsebseb_ | ok so one of htose is mine, one is the other organtier, and maybe another one or two as well | Mar 13 21:44 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but I guess it means 50 "other" people liked the event ot | Mar 13 21:44 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: and not sure how well the Google adveritsing is working or not | Mar 13 21:44 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but been coming up quite a lot apparnatly | Mar 13 21:45 |
sebsebseb_ | so I guess the event will get the 50 to 80 or so expected people then, and witout me advertising it on the mailing list to that other group? | Mar 13 21:45 |
Sosumi | just see if someone else gets opensusie | Mar 13 21:46 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: what do you mean? | Mar 13 21:46 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: see if these "other" peopel from else whre, go and choose opensuse or whatever they choose? | Mar 13 21:47 |
sebsebseb_ | is that what you mean? | Mar 13 21:47 |
Sosumi | yes | Mar 13 21:47 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yep exactly that's what I am thinking | Mar 13 21:47 |
Sosumi | so that you get either mint or ubuntu | Mar 13 21:47 |
sebsebseb_ | uh? | Mar 13 21:47 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: from my other gorup I am thinking I may be able to convert some to Magiea later on :d | Mar 13 21:48 |
Sosumi | well, if that other ppl get ubuntu and/or mint | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | some time | Mar 13 21:48 |
Sosumi | all you'll be left is with opensusie | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: ,but if they go to event | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | they may go to opensue or something maybe some of them I don't know | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: the three of htem will be togehter on the demo pc's | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: ,but if I mainly promote Ubuntu and Mint | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | then probably not that many will go with opensuse :D | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | they will want a Mint and Ubuntu remaster or both :) | Mar 13 21:49 |
Sosumi | ok | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | and openSUSE will be like h | Mar 13 21:49 |
Sosumi | good then | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | eh | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | plus I think the video makes it seem that opensuse is for power users quite technical etc | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yeah and the openSUSE guy uhmm | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | I am not htere to promtoe openSUSE that's my whole point | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | I would have been there promoting Mageia properly and GNOME 3, but they out voted that so | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | at lest that and Fedora is mentioned in hand out though | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: MinceR yeah FODEM this time went to no talks, spent two days promoting the newly releasedMageia 4 release to people instead at the stand | Mar 13 21:51 |
sebsebseb_ | and now this event that's coming up on Saturdya, it seems I am doing Ubuntu and Mint, whilst mentioning Mageia a bit I guess as well | Mar 13 21:51 |
Sosumi | good | Mar 13 21:51 |
Sosumi | but I don't see the point in promoting gnome3 | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | ,ut would have liked toh ave done Mgaeia properly, andGNOME 3, but htey out voted that so | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: MinceR and also my point is, i people from my other gorup uhmmm may go to Magiea or something once I Talkd properly about that :) | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | some of htem | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | or might htink, oh that's interesitng, I want to know more | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but if htey go to event hten uhmm, they may go to opensuse or something | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | depends | Mar 13 21:52 |

sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: MinceR and the re master idea uhmm right, ok used for dmoeing mainly, but better people learn how to start using offical ISO for a distro really :) if going to use | Mar 13 21:54 |

cubezzz | simplymageia or something | Mar 13 22:04 |
sebsebseb_ | cubezzz: nope | Mar 13 22:11 |
sebsebseb_ | don't think so | Mar 13 22:11 |
sebsebseb_ | nope | Mar 13 22:11 |
sebsebseb_ | it supports KDE 4 and not 3 | Mar 13 22:11 |

DaemonFC | Watching Star Trek: First Contact on Blu Ray. | Mar 14 00:18 |
DaemonFC | Mom was pissed at me because she dragged us all to some chick flick in 1996, and I snuck into the theater that was playing Star Trek: First Contact instead. She didn't realize I wasn't in their theater until their movie was over. | Mar 14 00:18 |
DaemonFC | A Star Trek movie with Captain Picard and the Borg most definitely beats the crap out of whatever it was we were there to see, I'm sure. | Mar 14 00:18 |
DaemonFC | I watched Gravity a few nights ago. That movie sucked. It was obviously meant for big screen 3d eye candy, except that I don't have a 3dtv, so I just got to watch Sandra Bullock get tossed around in space for two hours. Blagggh. At least George Clooney died. | Mar 14 00:18 |

MinceR | but there will be sanctions! | Mar 14 16:57 |
_Goblin | lol...sanctions.... | Mar 14 17:01 |
_Goblin | what sanctions ? The UK is impotent and needs Russia far more. | Mar 14 17:02 |
MinceR | what does the uk need russia for? | Mar 14 17:02 |
_Goblin | Trade...how much investment by the Russians? Much I think... | Mar 14 17:02 |
_Goblin | also | Mar 14 17:02 |
_Goblin | fuel | Mar 14 17:02 |
MinceR | ic | Mar 14 17:02 |
_Goblin | and keep in mind, its very easy for the US to jump up and down, but what on Earth can they do? | Mar 14 17:03 |
_Goblin | The US wouldn't dare take on Russia...as it only goes after softer targets | Mar 14 17:03 |
_Goblin | the UK is a joke....and in anycase is what Russia doing any different from the US and UK in their pasts? | Mar 14 17:03 |
MinceR | dunno, maybe they and their allies could stop trading with russia, but then much of europe would need to find some other place to get gas from | Mar 14 17:04 |
_Goblin | The Premier league in the UK is owned by the Russians...sort of. | Mar 14 17:04 |
_Goblin | Russia holds all the cards in my opinion and I think its rather hypocritical that the UK / US would try to tackle them over something which we have been "guilty" of ourselves. | Mar 14 17:05 |
_Goblin | The UK is irrelevant in Europe and whilst is the lapdog of its bigger more powerful brother the US, the US won't dare stick their neck too far over the line.... | Mar 14 17:06 |
_Goblin | I think Syria was a good indicator of the "bottle" the US and UK have when it comes to Russia....none at all. | Mar 14 17:07 |
_Goblin | and rightfully so....Russia is doing exactly what the US/UK would have/have done. | Mar 14 17:07 |
_Goblin | I'm also done with western "morals" of government, where lives of Palastinian children don't seem to be worth as much as those of Israel.....Both our governments are a disgrace. | Mar 14 17:09 |

MinceR | _Goblin: just what and when? | Mar 14 19:42 |
_Goblin | If we look at here and now, they do it by proxy...and rather than extend borders they claim "liberation". | Mar 14 19:50 |
_Goblin | proxy example would be Israel. | Mar 14 19:50 |
_Goblin | however by "liberation" the designated place becomes extension of "liberating" government. | Mar 14 19:52 |
_Goblin | and what of the Falklands? | Mar 14 19:52 |
_Goblin | The power here is all about alliances, so in the case of Russia not only is there Russian might which frightens USA and UK, its the alliance with China. | Mar 14 19:53 |
_Goblin | Gibraltar....we don't give that back, do we? | Mar 14 19:53 |
_Goblin | and then by proxy give land away and extend our borders by a proxy (Israel) | Mar 14 19:54 |
_Goblin | but it doesnt matter because the plight of the Palestine won't be reported by Western media because of the allies in Israel. | Mar 14 19:55 |
_Goblin | I should quantify that comment though by saying that its no fault of the Israel people. This is government v government. | Mar 14 19:56 |
_Goblin | As is sadly the case around the world...its our governments bickering and acting appallingly....not the people. | Mar 14 19:56 |
MinceR | ic | Mar 14 19:59 |
MinceR | but those all happened a long time ago, didn't it? | Mar 14 20:00 |
MinceR | depending on whether what israel is doing now is by their own intent or usa's | Mar 14 20:00 |
_Goblin | And the west has its "no-no's" for people doing the same thing....because the west is the bastion of world morals and everyone else is comply with their vision of what is right and wrong. | Mar 14 20:01 |
_Goblin | Until it backfired, look at history of Russia (forgetting the actual cold war) | Mar 14 20:01 |
Sosumi | if the crimeans want to be part of the russia | Mar 14 20:01 |
MinceR | or because the Long Peace rests on them :> | Mar 14 20:01 |
Sosumi | what can the US do? | Mar 14 20:01 |
_Goblin | the US were so scared they assisted a certain group in afghanistan to fight the Russians. | Mar 14 20:02 |
Sosumi | indeed | Mar 14 20:02 |
_Goblin | They even made a film about it....Rambo 3 | Mar 14 20:02 |
Sosumi | a propaganda movie called rambo 34 | Mar 14 20:02 |
_Goblin | it was all glory then, whilst the rebels fought on approval of the US...then it went a little sour when the "rebels" realized the exact price for being a proxy of the US | Mar 14 20:02 |
MinceR | is that rule 34 of rambo? | Mar 14 20:03 |
Sosumi | which had on its credits a dedication to the brave mujahadee aka alqaeda | Mar 14 20:03 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 14 20:03 |
_Goblin | :) | Mar 14 20:03 |
Sosumi | no idea, I just tend to find those movies boring and dumb | Mar 14 20:03 |
MinceR | at least those are proxy wars | Mar 14 20:03 |
_Goblin | They are very factual... | Mar 14 20:03 |
MinceR | the one in ukraine is a direct one | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | not in a realistic way of course | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | but Rambo et al, portray what it is the US wants people to believe and what they fear the most | Mar 14 20:04 |
Sosumi | the only factual movie that I could remember was Wag the Dog | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | and the same in the UK..... | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | its not a conspiracy, because in the case of films, the film makers pander to the current affairs and whats reported in the media..... | Mar 14 20:05 |
_Goblin | no better time to sell an "Invasion" movie, when Russia is out of favour with you. | Mar 14 20:05 |
Sosumi | propaganda I tell you | Mar 14 20:06 |
MinceR | also good time to sell weapons :> | Mar 14 20:06 |
Sosumi | indeed | Mar 14 20:06 |
_Goblin | Yes, but the movie industry isnt instructed to produce it, they are merely making money off the back of it | Mar 14 20:06 |
Sosumi | and ammo | Mar 14 20:06 |
MinceR | and UAVs | Mar 14 20:06 |
_Goblin | this all comes back to the US and China... | Mar 14 20:07 |
Sosumi | I though that the CIA had finger in holywood | Mar 14 20:07 |
Sosumi | *thought | Mar 14 20:07 |
_Goblin | they have in the media for a long time... | Mar 14 20:07 |
MinceR | they might | Mar 14 20:07 |
_Goblin | Area 51 for example. | Mar 14 20:07 |
MinceR | but some things might be explained without them :> | Mar 14 20:07 |
_Goblin | theres no aliens there though. | Mar 14 20:07 |
_Goblin | Area 51 was a propaganda tool created for the Chinese to believe the US had aliens in hangers that they could unleash if China's world ambitions included the US | Mar 14 20:08 |
_Goblin | there never was an aliens, but the beauty of a government denial and a few sci fi movies was that the simple people believed more and more in a "conspiracy" and did the propaganda job for the government. | Mar 14 20:09 |
_Goblin | the more the government denied, the more people thought they were covering up....it was actually a very clever "conspiracy" | Mar 14 20:10 |
_Goblin | Notice of late the "Captain America" type movies getting released...this is not something the government has instructed but it is the film companies capitalizing on peoples patriotism and desire to see the "western morals" served on a poor populas who know no better.....a feel good movie about world domination if you wish.... | Mar 14 20:12 |
_Goblin | Its very similar to a Microsoft view of "Do it our way or not at all" | Mar 14 20:15 |
MinceR | the same could be said about russian foreign policy as well | Mar 14 20:17 |
_Goblin | Very true....but can you blame them? | Mar 14 20:21 |
_Goblin | a liberal superpower becomes the lapdog of others nations wyms. | Mar 14 20:21 |
_Goblin | theres no us and them....this is governments fighting governments....a few people in power. | Mar 14 20:22 |
_Goblin | for example, if you met a Russian in a bar, you wouldn't have an overwhelming desire to sanction them by refusing to serve or speak to them, if they were a decent bloke you'd have a chat and a drink.... | Mar 14 20:23 |
_Goblin | and its this ethos which you extend to all the nations in the world, you realize that its merely people in power having ego battles with each other. | Mar 14 20:24 |
_Goblin | they don't get their hands dirty in war, its all dinners, numbers of troops and battles.... like a game of Risk or Command and Conquer...with the winner getting the biggest ego and remembered in history | Mar 14 20:25 |
MinceR | well, you can't fault every single citizen for everything their government does anyway | Mar 14 20:25 |
_Goblin | completely agree. | Mar 14 20:25 |
_Goblin | as I say this is not about "people" its all about governments. | Mar 14 20:26 |

_Goblin | Sosumi....not Freeman, its Gordon Brown....ex-labour leader.... | Mar 14 21:16 |
Sosumi | strange | Mar 14 21:16 |
Sosumi | I thought Gordon Brown was a pole dancer | Mar 14 21:16 |

_Goblin | Does anyone know whatever happened to Brandon Lozza? - I know I've been away from this group for a while but I'd love to know.... a quick google brings up his stuff that I already know.... Did he ever find his underground neanderthals? Did he ever release his Linux distro? | Mar 14 21:57 |
Sosumi | "Blink your eyelids periodically to lubricate your eyes." — Page 16 of the HP "Environmental, Health Safety Handbook for Employees". | Mar 14 21:58 |
Sosumi | lawl | Mar 14 21:58 |
_Goblin | And maybe the most important question of all.... Did he ever get a job as a Brian Clough look a like? | Mar 14 21:58 |
_Goblin | Sosumi - Ah.... That's where Ive been going wrong all these years.....I just used to throw water into my face every minute or so. | Mar 14 21:59 |
Sosumi | water has contaminants (pipping) and residual products from treatment | Mar 14 22:00 |
Sosumi | hardly the ideal thing to trow at the eyes | Mar 14 22:00 |
_Goblin | I don't know...does wonders for the complexion | Mar 14 22:01 |
_Goblin | and I use Evian | Mar 14 22:01 |
Sosumi | no idea of what that is | Mar 14 22:02 |
Sosumi | but usually sodium chlorine is enough | Mar 14 22:02 |
Sosumi | to wash the eyes | Mar 14 22:02 |
_Goblin | Its bottled mineral water from some mountain or other. | Mar 14 22:02 |
_Goblin | Melted Ice from Europa....thats what I can use.... | Mar 14 22:03 |
Sosumi | ha ok | Mar 14 22:03 |
_Goblin | contains high levels of chlorine....but its filtered through the depths of deep space and matured at sub zero temperatures in orbit around Jupiter | Mar 14 22:04 |
_Goblin | Quote "Europa's surface temperature at the equator never rises above minus 260 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 160 degrees Celsius). At the poles of the moon, the temperature never rises above minus 370 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 220 degrees Celsius)." - Now hows that for pure and free of contaminents? | Mar 14 22:05 |
MinceR | doesn't say anything about it | Mar 14 22:06 |
MinceR | only temperature | Mar 14 22:06 |
_Goblin | You see much industry on Europa? | Mar 14 22:06 |
_Goblin | I know we have had a few conspiracy "people" in the past here......but even their theories don't stretch to industry on Europa....I hope. | Mar 14 22:07 |
_Goblin | And Europa is an excellent example of how to be environmentally friendly......if you don't have an environment in the first place, are many degrees below zero and orbit a massive gas giant whilst being bombarded by insterstella radiation, then you can't stuff up the environment. | Mar 14 22:09 |

DaemonFC | It is true that people's wages are having a hard time beating overall inflation. | Mar 14 23:39 |

DaemonFC | J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says: | Mar 15 02:23 |
DaemonFC | Well, the right-wing whackadoodles go apeshit whenever a cable company picks up any news channel that doesn't have "Fox" in the name. | Mar 15 02:23 |
DaemonFC | I'd love to see them pick up more news channels if only for that reason. | Mar 15 02:23 |
DaemonFC | I don't subscribe to cable, though, because it's a waste of money. I ditched it years ago when I realized I was paying over $120 a month just for the cable TV and I was down to two shows that I could stream anyway. | Mar 15 02:23 |
DaemonFC | 30 years ago, your cable bill was less than $40 a month, there were no "boxes" to rent, and you got the movie channels with that. Now you pay three times that, there's never anything good on, and the cost goes up every year at 5-6 times the general rate of inflation. | Mar 15 02:23 |
DaemonFC | In Comcast's case, they're basically using the money to finance political graft and give $10 internet connections to everyone with a child on free or reduced price school lunches. Really? People with kids on reduced price lunches aren't necessarily even what you'd call poor. Your household can be up to 185% of the FPL for the reduced price lunch program.

DaemonFC | "The Early Random PRNG in iOS 7 is surprisingly weak," said Tarjei Mandt senior security researcher at Azimuth Security. "The one in iOS 6 is better because this one is deterministic and trivial to brute force. All the mitigations deployed by the iOS kernel essentially depend on the robustness of the Early Random PRNG," Mandt said. "It must provide sufficient entropy and non-predictable output." | Mar 15 09:36 |

Sosumi | well yes | Mar 15 17:05 |
cubezzz | "Stealing PDP-10 computer time from Computer Center Corp to write BASIC" | Mar 15 17:06 |
cubezzz | that's how it all started | Mar 15 17:06 |
Sosumi | who else would dump m$ unix to develop its own standard, NT, to ensure that none of the programs would be compatible with other unix systems | Mar 15 17:07 |
Sosumi | was it xenix? | Mar 15 17:07 |
cubezzz | Xenix was derived from Unix v7, and yes it's a giant step backwards | Mar 15 17:07 |
cubezzz | instead of getting the source code for all device drivers, compilers, user programs you got binaries only | Mar 15 17:08 |
cubezzz | Microsoft didn't exactly dump Unix, but they corrupted it and closed it off | Mar 15 17:09 |
Sosumi | ho I wasn't looking at the the irc windows | Mar 15 17:09 |
Sosumi | I meant it as "who else but m$" in the sense of developing their own standard | Mar 15 17:10 |
Sosumi | and confine everything to their platform | Mar 15 17:10 |
cubezzz | Blame Cutler for that, he was a Unix hater | Mar 15 17:12 |
Sosumi | but it was M$ who hired him from dec | Mar 15 17:13 |
Sosumi | and NT is hardly, really, hardly a VMS replacement | Mar 15 17:13 |
Sosumi | and talking of vms | Mar 15 17:14 |
Sosumi | hp would do great if they ported openvms to x86 | Mar 15 17:14 |
Sosumi | instead of having it confined to the now dead itanium | Mar 15 17:14 |
cubezzz | as much as I liked DEC I can't get too excited about OpenVMS | Mar 15 17:18 |
cubezzz | it's in the same category as Ultrix, VM/SP, and other closed source OSes | Mar 15 17:19 |

cubezzz | if I want to play around with something different, I'll run Haiku or Plan 9 | Mar 15 17:29 |
cubezzz | also Unix was better than OpenVMS in several ways | Mar 15 17:31 |
cubezzz | more open, a lot cheaper and more responsive | Mar 15 17:32 |
MinceR | geekings | Mar 15 17:34 |
MinceR | vms is baroque | Mar 15 17:34 |
MinceR | nt, even more so | Mar 15 17:34 |
cubezzz | the old IBM OSes are worth a look | Mar 15 17:35 |
cubezzz | pre-VM/SP, they were basically open source | Mar 15 17:36 |
cubezzz | stuff like OS/360-MVT, or VM/370 | Mar 15 17:37 |
cubezzz | on the DEC side I think the source for RT-11 is kicking around | Mar 15 17:38 |
cubezzz | in a way, things could have turned out better than they did | Mar 15 17:44 |
cubezzz | high schools should have got unix source code, but in the old days PDPs were just too expensive | Mar 15 17:45 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 15 18:19 |
Sosumi | but I meant it into a way of pressuring ibm and red hat | Mar 15 18:20 |
Sosumi | with another OS readily available | Mar 15 18:20 |
Sosumi | instead of one that at the moment seems dead | Mar 15 18:21 |
Sosumi | also, does't the german stock exchange use openvms? | Mar 15 18:21 |
Sosumi | no idea about the german | Mar 15 18:22 |
Sosumi | but the koreans are using it | Mar 15 18:22 |
Sosumi | and so do the australians | Mar 15 18:22 |
cubezzz | IBM has z/OS and Linux for their mainframes | Mar 15 18:24 |
Sosumi | and AIX | Mar 15 18:25 |
cubezzz | not everyone is going to want the source code for a given OS, some don't care | Mar 15 18:25 |
cubezzz | personally, I want source code :) | Mar 15 18:25 |
cubezzz | with enough $$$ you can probably get the OpenVMS source | Mar 15 18:26 |
Sosumi | I have no use for vms | Mar 15 18:26 |
Sosumi | but keeping it as a competitor | Mar 15 18:26 |
Sosumi | would probably be better in the long run | Mar 15 18:27 |
cubezzz | outside of my own personal philosophy, as long as different operating systems can interoperate using open standards, it's not overly-critical which operating system they use | Mar 15 18:34 |
Sosumi | yes | Mar 15 18:36 |
Sosumi | that is true | Mar 15 18:36 |
cubezzz | I think that most OSes have accumulated a lot of cruft over time, and there's nothing really universal or elegant that's modern | Mar 15 18:36 |
cubezzz | if someone really wanted to, they can go back to the original engineering diagrams of a PDP-11/45 (a common Unix box) and learn everything about it | Mar 15 18:51 |
cubezzz | there's no way for Microsoft or anyone else putting the Genie back in the bottle | Mar 15 18:53 |

DaemonFC | Someone noticed me posting on their forum and changed my member status to "Apple Basher". I told them, "thank you". | Mar 09 01:29 |
DaemonFC | Someone was talking to me about when I worked at Walmart. | Mar 09 01:31 |
DaemonFC | They reminded me of this annoying co-manager we had. They said "Didn't you just want to walk up and kick her in the cunt?". | Mar 09 01:32 |
DaemonFC | I said, "Well, she did brag about buying her son a new Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. About a week later, she came in, in a bad mood, and said her son was trying to drag race someone, peeled out from a stop sign, and ran the car into a tree. The insurance company ended up totaling the car. Isn't is just wonderful how some days turn out?" | Mar 09 01:33 |
DaemonFC | about a minute ago · Edited | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | Of course, whether there's spyware for iThings or not depends on that which we call spyware. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | Most apps in Apple and Google's store are designed to mine your personal data and spy on you. The NSA even worked with Apple to install backdoors into iPhones and other Apple products at the hardware level. | Mar 09 01:53 |
DaemonFC | Both stores contain apps from car insurance companies that monitor your phone's GPS. Facebook's app is designed to copy your phone's SMS messages and send them to Facebook, which uses the data for advertising and god only knows what else. | Mar 09 01:54 |
DaemonFC | In general, I never install an app on my phone on my Android phone if there's a way to do the same thing on a web page through my Mozilla Firefox web browser. | Mar 09 01:54 |
DaemonFC | You'd be surprised at how many apps are just a portal to a website that gives some untrustworthy company additional powers over your phone, which they will use to steal your personal data. | Mar 09 01:54 |
DaemonFC | The iPhone also has an additional malicious feature which lets every store you enter track your movements and send you alerts that you might not want. | Mar 09 01:54 |
DaemonFC | There are a few grocery stores that wait until you get close to the Gillette shaving razors and send you a coupon for them. So, maybe you don't care if they know you like Gillette shaving razors, but they effectively know everything else too. How long you spend in the frozen food aisle next to the pizzas. If you're buying condoms and lube from the "personal aisle", etc. Maybe they'll sell all that to a health insurance company. | Mar 09 01:54 |
DaemonFC | Do you really want them to know this stuff? | Mar 09 01:54 |
DaemonFC | The only way to turn off this malicious iPhone feature is to disable bluetooth completely. Even then, it's proprietary, so who knows whether turning that feature off actually turned off their ability to track you, or just shuts off their ability to send you coupons and alerts? | Mar 09 01:54 |

msb_ | "<Sosumi> the big iron desktop is already dead" -- Nonsense! The very article that Sosumi links to shows desktop sales declining very slowly by about 14% from 2012 to 2018. Desktops can have highspeed processors and have several large HDDs to have lots of data instantly available, for about $1200. Laptops add portability but lack the large data storage and some of the speed, for about the same price. Tablets store little data and | Mar 09 17:32 |
msb_ | have a tiny screen -- useless for watching movies -- and an inefficient "keyboard". Easy portability is their only advantage. They have entirely different uses from desktops and laptops. The only reason tablets are outselling the others is their low price. | Mar 09 17:32 |
msb_ | None of this has anything to do with Microshit, which will hopefully gradually die. | Mar 09 17:34 |
Sosumi | ppl use tvs to watch movies | Mar 09 17:36 |
Sosumi | many from what I've seen have already relegated all their computing to tablets | Mar 09 17:37 |
msb_ | Desktops and laptops can serve as a wonderful extension of the human mind, if configured correctly. Any song, any movie, any piece of information important to a person, can be instantly recalled. | Mar 09 17:37 |
Sosumi | the only desktop market that still stays afloat is the gaming pc | Mar 09 17:37 |
msb_ | Most people don't think, have never learned how, and have in fact been taught not to think. Any that drink fluoridated water, take antacids containing aluminum, or get vaccines containing mercury, have been brain-damaged. All of these have little intellectual life. They may be satisfied with a tablet, and watching movies from DVDs using a TV. | Mar 09 17:40 |
msb_ | They are "sheeple". But it's people who *do* think who make a difference, who advance human knowledge and society, and create a World Community, and (hopefully) save us from the current domination by fascist psychopaths. | Mar 09 17:43 |

Sosumi | instead of doing drugs | Mar 09 19:30 |
Sosumi | because once you know how the mind works | Mar 09 19:31 |
Sosumi | you'll no longer fall for the entrapments of propaganda | Mar 09 19:31 |
msb_ | Sosumi: 1. I don't "do drugs". 2. I know that people create a model of reality in their minds, which is not necessarily accurate. It can only be made more accurate by critical thinking -- access all available sources of information, and compare them with one another and with your own internal model using the law of non-contradiction. | Mar 09 19:33 |
msb_ | Sosumi: Then update your internal model. If you don't realize that your beliefs are your own model of reality, and that you must use critical thinking to correct it, then you have no hope of knowing what's actually going on in the world. Psychology and neurophysiology don't help that much. | Mar 09 19:35 |
msb_ | Sosumi: You must hold your own mind as an object of examination. That is the key. Self-observation, as explained by Gurdjieff and Ouspensky. Without it you remain asleep. | Mar 09 19:37 |

DaemonFC | J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says: | Mar 09 22:02 |
DaemonFC | One of the disturbing things about having a computer with a satellite connection in the car is that the government could shut off your engine, or deactivate the brakes, or..... | Mar 09 22:02 |
DaemonFC | Eventually, they won't just be taking control of reporters Windows computers and deleting stories and books, they'll arrange for a little traffic accident, and nobody will be any the wiser. | Mar 09 22:02 |
DaemonFC | When we have self-driving cars, they'll be able to take them over and run you off a bridge or stop you on the train tracks and lock the doors, or.... | Mar 09 22:02 |
DaemonFC | Well, you get the idea. | Mar 09 22:02 |
Sosumi | what I don't like of these new cars | Mar 09 22:03 |
Sosumi | is that things like the accelerator are not directly connected to the engine through a steel cable | Mar 09 22:04 |
Sosumi | but instead it is through a pressure sensor that in turn is connected to the management system of the car | Mar 09 22:04 |

DaemonFC | Sosumi: My car is old enough that it has an accelerator cable. | Mar 09 22:08 |
DaemonFC | I have driven ones that have the sensor instead. | Mar 09 22:08 |
Sosumi | mine too | Mar 09 22:08 |
DaemonFC | I don't know why they changed it. Another expensive sensor that can go out? | Mar 09 22:08 |

Sosumi | for possible data retrieval at a car repair shop | Mar 09 22:10 |
DaemonFC | Then when you take it for an oil change, they don't reset the sensor, and it still says you need an oil change. | Mar 09 22:10 |
Sosumi | or on those newer models, actually transmit the data | Mar 09 22:10 |
DaemonFC | I've seen plenty of people with that light on where they say "Yeah, the shop never reset it.". | Mar 09 22:11 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 09 22:11 |
Sosumi | mine doesn't do any of that | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | This car is the newest I've owned. It's a 1996. | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | So it does have OBD-II. | Mar 09 22:11 |
Sosumi | mine's just a renault 21 turbo from 1991 | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | That was the first year the federal government mandated that. | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | Some 1995s have them. | Mar 09 22:11 |
DaemonFC | I've owned a lot of 1995s. | Mar 09 22:12 |
DaemonFC | A 1995 Chevy Lumina, a 1995 Chevy Corsica, a 1995 Ford Taurus.... | Mar 09 22:12 |
DaemonFC | People get rid of their cars when there's plenty of life left on them. | Mar 09 22:13 |
DaemonFC | They just want something newer, which is ridiculous. | Mar 09 22:13 |
DaemonFC | If it's not broke, don't fix it. | Mar 09 22:13 |

Sosumi | and didn't cost me a dime | Mar 09 22:14 |
Sosumi | since it was given free to me | Mar 09 22:14 |
DaemonFC | I paid $2,200 for mine. | Mar 09 22:23 |
DaemonFC | Considering what used car prices are up to, that's not a bad deal. | Mar 09 22:23 |
DaemonFC | As recently as 2005, $2,000 got you a decent 10 year old car with about 100,000 miles on it. | Mar 09 22:23 |

MinceR | to serve as incentive for corruption? :> | Mar 09 22:45 |

MinceR | at least i'm sure that's how it works here in hungary | Mar 09 22:45 |

MinceR | yes, all of them | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | also, turn lights are apparently a rarely heard legend | Mar 09 22:46 |
DaemonFC | Yeah. I honk at them and flip them off. | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | and tailgating is the national sport | Mar 09 22:46 |
DaemonFC | It won't improve their behavior, but it feels good. | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | people driving shitty expensive german cars believe the rules don't apply to them | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | the police don't think the rules apply to them | Mar 09 22:46 |
MinceR | the rules are getting shittier every year | Mar 09 22:47 |
DaemonFC | Here, it's mostly pickup trucks that are rusty and as old as I am. | Mar 09 22:47 |

DaemonFC | Economy cars from the 90s that are burning oil. | Mar 09 22:47 |
MinceR | so the roads won't be maintained | Mar 09 22:47 |
DaemonFC | etc... | Mar 09 22:47 |

DaemonFC | it's whatever the government declares to be a gas guzzler | Mar 09 22:50 |
DaemonFC | I think the standard is 22.5 mpg now. | Mar 09 22:50 |
DaemonFC | They increase the fine by every 1 mpg you get under that. | Mar 09 22:50 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Mine is EPA rated for 17 mpg combined city/highway. | Mar 09 22:51 |
MinceR | there you go, it's a gas guzzler :> | Mar 09 22:52 |
MinceR | (according to the standard) | Mar 09 22:52 |

msb_ | Suppose the government decides that people should have sensors, a little computer, and a wifi transceiver inside them to alert them to problems with their heart, liver, brain, etc. | Mar 10 00:16 |
msb_ | "Democracies" may vote to make that mandatory. After all, they voted to *prevent* GMO labelling and gay marriage in states in the US, and to make totally harmless cannabis more illegal than *murder*. Voted through their elected legislators. | Mar 10 00:18 |
msb_ | Maybe those same brainwashed idiot voters would vote to make implanted chips and sensors mandatory. | Mar 10 00:19 |
msb_ | And then the govt could keep track of everyone -- where they are and what they're doing. All for their own good, of course. | Mar 10 00:20 |
msb_ | If you went into a Faraday-cage room to block the transmission, the wifi transmitter might go to full power trying to contact the nearest base station and burn a hole through your skin. | Mar 10 00:23 |
msb_ | Of course there would be no way to switch it off. For your own good. | Mar 10 00:24 |
msb_ | I guarantee that psychopaths in the US government are working on this right now. | Mar 10 00:24 |
msb_ | There's even a TV series called "Intelligence" about a guy with a chip in his head that can receive all wifi data. He can identify and track people. The system in his head integrates the data and shows him a series of pictures. He works for "US Cybercom":. | Mar 10 00:26 |
msb_ | He has a beautiful female partner to protect him if he gets distracted by all that data. They just showed episode 9 a couple days ago. | Mar 10 00:29 |
msb_ | And we thought Skynet and Terminators were the worst they'd come up with. | Mar 10 00:30 |

Sosumi | the only thing that is surging is the gaming pc market | Mar 10 19:07 |
Sosumi | although, consoles will pick up once exclusives start kicking in | Mar 10 19:07 |
Sosumi | as for the xbone I see a bad future ahead of it | Mar 10 19:08 |
Sosumi | usually what kept the 360 around at first were the paid exclusives | Mar 10 19:08 |
Sosumi | and the halo games made by bungie | Mar 10 19:08 |
Sosumi | which were quite mediocre if I must say | Mar 10 19:09 |
Sosumi | specially halo 1 | Mar 10 19:09 |
Sosumi | didn't bring anything new into the mix | Mar 10 19:10 |
Sosumi | aside from assisted aiming, lawl | Mar 10 19:10 |
Sosumi | but the xbone is well bellow | Mar 10 19:10 |
DaemonFC | I opened all my windows. 55 degrees is like a tropical heat wave compared to the winter we've had. | Mar 10 19:11 |
Sosumi | in here there was just rain and rain | Mar 10 19:12 |
Sosumi | but no cold at all | Mar 10 19:12 |
Sosumi | the lowest temps outside were usually around 15 ºC | Mar 10 19:13 |
Sosumi | at moment and for the remaining of the week | Mar 10 19:13 |
Sosumi | it is forecasted to be all sun and temperatures around 20 ºC | Mar 10 19:13 |
Sosumi | and that basically means summer to me | Mar 10 19:14 |
Sosumi | since from the hellhole I come from temperatures during the winter were usually negative | Mar 10 19:14 |
Sosumi | that and scorching summers | Mar 10 19:15 |

DaemonFC | Even on Windows, I do not believe that malware can infest a video file, unless the format is WMV. | Mar 10 19:52 |
abeNd-org | ugh, what is it with google & malware paid links, come on, i know you like money google but must you accept it from those pushing malware? this isnt even apps, this is links in google search, just had to clear off a computer from the person doing a "adobe flash" search on windows & clicking one of the sponsored links that infested her machine with a boatload of garbageware | Mar 10 20:19 |
gde33 | abeNd-org: even worse, they were in a position to set some decent web standards but chose to keep what they like a secret | Mar 10 20:29 |
gde33 | they have a ton of designers guess what google likes, so called SEO | Mar 10 20:29 |
gde33 | for paid links I would do a scheme based on page weight, number of requests, does it use js, if so how much etc | Mar 10 20:30 |
gde33 | I would then bill you for the malware :D | Mar 10 20:31 |

sebsebseb | hi | Mar 10 20:39 |
Sosumi | abeNd-org, I think those folks actually deserve that for installing flash | Mar 10 20:39 |
Sosumi | DaemonFC, always turn off stuff, including lights and radio when starting the engine | Mar 10 20:40 |
Sosumi | common sense says so | Mar 10 20:41 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: openSUSE | Mar 10 20:41 |
Sosumi | what about openSUSIE? | Mar 10 20:41 |

abeNd-org | Sosumi despite your perfect html5 world, some stuff still uses flash on the internet, especially when it comes to end user applications | Mar 10 20:48 |
Sosumi | like flash games? | Mar 10 20:48 |
Sosumi | real end user applications of the sort of important "stuff" | Mar 10 20:49 |
Sosumi | are done in java | Mar 10 20:49 |
Sosumi | flash in itself, could and should just die | Mar 10 20:49 |
Sosumi | *on | Mar 10 20:50 |
abeNd-org | radio station in this particular case, & yes mgmt allows it, so yes, it is supported by IT per mgmt, so no, this wouldnt fit into your perfect html5 utopia that doesnt exist | Mar 10 20:53 |
MinceR | 205215 < DaemonFC> Even on Windows, I do not believe that malware can infest a video file, unless the format is WMV. | Mar 10 20:53 |
abeNd-org | flash should die, but it isnt, & hasnt | Mar 10 20:54 |
MinceR | i suppose a buffer overflow or similar vulnerability could lead to execution of arbitrary code :> | Mar 10 20:54 |
abeNd-org | os2 should die, but there is still plenty of it out there, sco openserver should die, but there is still plenty of it out there | Mar 10 20:54 |
Sosumi | funnily how you immediately declared ti has my html5 utopia | Mar 10 20:54 |
MinceR | how could there be a "perfect html5 world" as long as a drm apologist heads the w3c in cahoots with msft and the MAFIAA? | Mar 10 20:55 |
Sosumi | when in fact html5 has been infected with drm a while ago | Mar 10 20:55 |
Sosumi | so, far from being utopic | Mar 10 20:55 |
abeNd-org | i call it as the way you speak there is nothing in the universe using flash | Mar 10 20:57 |
MinceR | sites should just link to reasonably open video files and let a real video player handle them :> | Mar 10 20:58 |
MinceR | (not Real Video, that's crap) | Mar 10 20:58 |
Sosumi | never intended to make it sound that way | Mar 10 20:58 |
Sosumi | like there is "nothing using flash" | Mar 10 20:58 |
Sosumi | plus, flash is deprecated on gnu/linux and it is a broken glass jar poorly fixed with duct tape and camel spit | Mar 10 21:00 |
abeNd-org | so tough cookies, flash still exists, stop whining & fix the issues instead of crying a river. google's sponsored ads on searches being one of the problems | Mar 10 21:00 |
Sosumi | so obviously that I'm all for replacing it | Mar 10 21:00 |
abeNd-org | yeah, well, it still exists, so again, touch cookies | Mar 10 21:00 |
abeNd-org | tough | Mar 10 21:00 |
abeNd-org | should it? no, does it? yes | Mar 10 21:00 |
MinceR | getting rid of flash is the way to fix the issue. | Mar 10 21:01 |
abeNd-org | ok, so where is a usable replacement, & why is it that places like radio station websites arent using it yet? | Mar 10 21:02 |
MinceR | there were usable replacements ever since video player applications could stream over http | Mar 10 21:03 |
MinceR | websites aren't using them because people are stupid. | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | I have no idea of what radio stations you're talking about | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | but the one I know provide a file that can be opened through vlc | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | or even itunes | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | for streaming | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | much better | Mar 10 21:04 |
Sosumi | and it works with mobile devices | Mar 10 21:05 |
Sosumi | since flash is dead on android too | Mar 10 21:05 |
MinceR | (and most likely even an "html5" video element could be used in such a way) | Mar 10 21:05 |
abeNd-org | sure, people in this channel could configure vlc for streaming, but most "humans" wouldnt know what vlc is, much less how to get it going for streaming | Mar 10 21:05 |
MinceR | you underestimate the popularity of vlc :> | Mar 10 21:06 |
Sosumi | that is why those humans deserve all the bag of hurt they get by installing flash | Mar 10 21:06 |
MinceR | also, regardless of your enthusiasm for flash, the fact is adobe is killing support for it. | Mar 10 21:06 |
Sosumi | hopefully, they'll apreciate to know better next time | Mar 10 21:06 |
abeNd-org | & you underestimate the corporate world | Mar 10 21:06 |
abeNd-org | "(4:00:16 PM) abeNd-org: should it? no, does it? yes" - pretty sure i wouldnt call that enthusiasm.... | Mar 10 21:07 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Real doesn't have their own codecs anymore. | Mar 10 21:07 |
abeNd-org | sure, replacing it with adobe air | Mar 10 21:07 |
DaemonFC | Just a container format that hosts MPEG-4. | Mar 10 21:07 |
MinceR | they killed adobe air earlier | Mar 10 21:07 |
abeNd-org | on linux sure | Mar 10 21:07 |
MinceR | and it failed anyway | Mar 10 21:08 |
abeNd-org | alive & well on windows | Mar 10 21:08 |
MinceR | i'm curious of your corporate environment where adobe air is "alive & well" | Mar 10 21:08 |
MinceR | i'm pretty sure people aren't even aware of it in most "corporate environment"s | Mar 10 21:08 |
Sosumi | I thought that everyone hated air | Mar 10 21:10 |
Sosumi | as much as they hated twilight | Mar 10 21:10 |
Sosumi | or silverlight | Mar 10 21:10 |
abeNd-org | from what i remember most of the people in this channel are just students, or have only worked in one IT environment in their lives | Mar 10 21:10 |
MinceR | then you "remember" it wrong | Mar 10 21:10 |
Sosumi | I'm guilty for student | Mar 10 21:10 |
abeNd-org | yea, silverlight, nightmare, ms is still pushing it for lync/sccm/etc management | Mar 10 21:10 |
MinceR | yeah, msft pretty much gave up on silverlight | Mar 10 21:11 |
MinceR | ages ago | Mar 10 21:11 |
abeNd-org | yea, they did, but for the current mgmt consoles of some of their major server programs it is still there | Mar 10 21:11 |
MinceR | so, a relic | Mar 10 21:11 |

msb_ | I never programmed that IBM 1401, but I did spend a couple years on this LINC computer: http://www.digibarn.com/collections/systems/linc/ | Mar 11 04:33 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.digibarn.com | Digibarn Systems: The LINC - Laboratory INstrument Computer [ http://ur1.ca/gtbmh ] | Mar 11 04:33 | |
msb_ | Click on the photos to expand them. It had silver toggle switches to load address and data. You could simply run your finger down them to set them all to 0 or 1. It had lighted pushbuttons! | Mar 11 04:35 |
msb_ | The display was a 5" oscilloscope. I programmed a binocular stero display on it with one of the analog knobs adjusting separation of the two pictures to match the viewer's interocular distance. | Mar 11 04:36 |
cubezzz | that was by DEC was it not? | Mar 11 04:37 |
msb_ | The keyboard crapped out and I helped make a new one out of a teletype and diode logic, to use until the replacement came. | Mar 11 04:37 |
msb_ | Yes, DEC. | Mar 11 04:37 |
msb_ | It was designed to be programmable by scientists for use in laboratory automation and data processing/visualization. | Mar 11 04:38 |
msb_ | I wrote a program that used an area of memory to hold instructions created by a random number generator. They could modify themselves, but the HALT instruction was not executed. The display instruction had the X value in an index register and the Y value in the accumulator. The random-execution program made displays that looked like EEG patterns! | Mar 11 04:42 |
msb_ | The Ghost in the Machine! | Mar 11 04:42 |
cubezzz | so it's a rasterized display? | Mar 11 04:43 |
cubezzz | if so, it's one of the earliest ones | Mar 11 04:43 |
msb_ | Nope -- one dot at a time. | Mar 11 04:43 |
msb_ | But the screen was fairly long persistence, and if there were 1000 dots or less it didn't flicker much. | Mar 11 04:44 |
msb_ | I built a light-pen for it, so you could draw pictures and store them on the little magtapes. Even make movies, sort of. | Mar 11 04:44 |
msb_ | Originally it had 1K of 12-bit core, then they added a second K. | Mar 11 04:45 |
cubezzz | that's tiny | Mar 11 04:46 |
msb_ | But it didn't have to support a GUI. Just ran one program at a time, which you wrote in assembly language. | Mar 11 04:47 |
cubezzz | I guess that would be assembly language only then? | Mar 11 04:47 |
cubezzz | ah I see | Mar 11 04:47 |
msb_ | But it was a very easy and efficient assembly language. BASIC came later, on the PDP-8, | Mar 11 04:47 |
msb_ | The instructions were designed for programming by general scientists and lab techs, not computer specialists. | Mar 11 04:48 |
cubezzz | interesting | Mar 11 04:48 |
cubezzz | I've dabbled with early DEC computers a bit, but not the LINC | Mar 11 04:49 |
msb_ | It came with an editor/assembler program, more or less curses-like. You could insert lines. | Mar 11 04:49 |
msb_ | The LINC was the most beautiful of all. | Mar 11 04:49 |
cubezzz | did you ever work on a PDP-4? | Mar 11 04:50 |
cubezzz | that's about the same era | Mar 11 04:50 |
msb_ | It had analog input knobs, A/D and D/A convertors, and a plugin frame that could hold custom circuitry you'd build on perf boards. | Mar 11 04:51 |
msb_ | No. | Mar 11 04:51 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/pdp-4-trackball.png | Mar 11 04:51 |
msb_ | LINC, PDP-8, LINC-8, PDP-12, PDP-6, PDP-10. | Mar 11 04:51 |
cubezzz | I've worked on PDP-10 | Mar 11 04:52 |
msb_ | Wow, huge screen! | Mar 11 04:52 |
cubezzz | DEC 340 display :) | Mar 11 04:53 |
cubezzz | well before my time, but interesting | Mar 11 04:53 |
msb_ | I've used a $30 Logitech trackball for years. would never go back to a mouse. | Mar 11 04:53 |
msb_ | We might have had one of those displays on the PDP-12. At least it was big and round. Still dot by dot. | Mar 11 04:54 |
cubezzz | vector 1024x1204 if I remember correctly | Mar 11 04:54 |
cubezzz | 1024x1024 | Mar 11 04:54 |

msb_ | I think ours was dots, not vectors, but I'm not sure now. | Mar 11 04:55 |
msb_ | In any case you had to be very careful in programming it not to burn a hole in the phosphor by repeatedly displaying a dot in one place. | Mar 11 04:56 |
msb_ | Always kept a finger on the STOP switch until you knew there were no bugs that would do that. | Mar 11 04:57 |
msb_ | During the Vietnam War, some big bosses came through and I displayed a peace symbol on the LINC screen that I had secretly prepared. | Mar 11 04:59 |
msb_ | No flicker, medium-persistence green phosphor, about the same color used in The Matrix. | Mar 11 05:01 |
cubezzz | reminds me a bit of Commodore PET | Mar 11 05:01 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/superpet-apl2.png | Mar 11 05:02 |
cubezzz | the PET had 8x8 characters though, so a bit more resolution than 4x6 :) | Mar 11 05:04 |
cubezzz | wikipedia says white or yellow phosphor, but those pics showed green | Mar 11 05:05 |
msb_ | The 5 inch LINC display was definitely green. I don't remember the color of the large round PDP-12 display. | Mar 11 05:07 |
msb_ | The PDP-12 had both LINC and PDP-8 instruction sets, and could switch between them. | Mar 11 05:08 |
msb_ | It had a 5MB removable hard drive, that would scratch the head on the edge of the platter every time the cartridge was loaded. But DEC denied it. | Mar 11 05:09 |
cubezzz | RK05? | Mar 11 05:10 |
msb_ | Could be. It was a single platter cartridge. | Mar 11 05:11 |
msb_ | A Data General Eclipse computer I worked on had a 200MB HDD the size of a small coffin. I fixed it using only a triggered-delay oscilloscope. | Mar 11 05:13 |
cubezzz | what language(s) did you use on the PDP-10? | Mar 11 05:14 |
msb_ | Computing got to be real fun again when I got an IBM-PC with a color display. | Mar 11 05:14 |
msb_ | Assembly and Fortran. I was working on a machine to scan oscilloscope photographs into the computer. Scanned them with a CRT and lens, and picked up the reflection with a photomultiplier tube. | Mar 11 05:16 |
msb_ | The photos were of nanosecond phenomena, and the original signals were to fast to digitize. | Mar 11 05:17 |
msb_ | The thing actually worked, powered by a PDP-8 networked to the PDP-6 or 10, and was callable from Fortran. | Mar 11 05:18 |
msb_ | to fast --> too fast | Mar 11 05:18 |
msb_ | Light absorption in chlorophyll (spinach leaves) hit with a Q-switched ruby laser pulse. | Mar 11 05:19 |
msb_ | The measure light was a xenon flash lamp powered by a multiple pi-section delay line, where the inductors were tunable with ferrite cores, enabling the light pulse to be flattened. | Mar 11 05:20 |
msb_ | I was very proud of that measure light! | Mar 11 05:21 |
cubezzz | you had an interesting job :) | Mar 11 05:22 |
msb_ | A succession of them. | Mar 11 05:22 |
msb_ | Research labs were much better to work in than the software companies I was in after them. The scientists were rational. The software managers were not. | Mar 11 05:23 |
cubezzz | some work I did on tops-20: | Mar 11 05:23 |
cubezzz | http://apl.maxhost.org/apl-tops-20.txt | Mar 11 05:24 |
msb_ | Was/is that a successor to the PDP-10? | Mar 11 05:24 |
msb_ | Or an OS? | Mar 11 05:25 |
cubezzz | well tops-20 was the OS for DECSystem-20 | Mar 11 05:25 |
cubezzz | not sure if that was the successor to PDP-10 though | Mar 11 05:25 |
msb_ | I think I had migrated to DG Nova/Eclipse, and then to 6502 satellites of them, and then IBM-PCs. | Mar 11 05:26 |
cubezzz | I guess it's still a PDP-10 though | Mar 11 05:26 |
msb_ | I had an idea for each lab setup to have a little 6502 machine with 4K or so of RAM, that could take data at high speed, store it, and feed it to the Eclipse central computer over a serial line. | Mar 11 05:28 |
msb_ | It would have worked if they hadn't stopped me! No, actually we built one 6502 satellite (based on a cheap kit), and it did work. | Mar 11 05:29 |
cubezzz | I think some of the DECSystem-20's had 1024 kilowords of ram | Mar 11 05:31 |
msb_ | I got circuit ideas for it from, I think Don Lancaster's monthly column in Popular Electronics. | Mar 11 05:32 |
msb_ | A mighty megabyte! | Mar 11 05:32 |
msb_ | Except I guess they were 36-bit words. | Mar 11 05:32 |
cubezzz | yes, pretty hefty :) | Mar 11 05:32 |
cubezzz | plus it had ethernet which is nice | Mar 11 05:34 |
msb_ | Better than RS-232! | Mar 11 05:35 |
cubezzz | three-phase power, not something for the house | Mar 11 05:35 |
cubezzz | way too big | Mar 11 05:35 |
msb_ | Cables under the floor. | Mar 11 05:36 |
cubezzz | I think there's a lot of source code kicking around though, and there's a pretty good emulator for it | Mar 11 05:36 |
msb_ | Eventually a Pentium PC beat it all to hell. Such is the power of photolithography. | Mar 11 05:37 |
cubezzz | you be surprised now much old stuff is open source now | Mar 11 05:37 |
cubezzz | x86 doesn't rule everything | Mar 11 05:37 |
cubezzz | IBM still makes mainframes :) | Mar 11 05:38 |
msb_ | Yeah, but what do they have inside 'em? | Mar 11 05:38 |
msb_ | Might be lots of multi-core x86s. | Mar 11 05:38 |
msb_ | Often running Linux. | Mar 11 05:39 |
cubezzz | it's z10 these days | Mar 11 05:39 |
msb_ | Proprietary IBM CPU? | Mar 11 05:39 |
cubezzz | linux yes, but not x86 | Mar 11 05:39 |
cubezzz | yeah it's an IBM microprocessor, came in around 2008 | Mar 11 05:40 |
msb_ | Didn't IBM contribute a billion dollars to improving Linux some years back? | Mar 11 05:42 |
cubezzz | some of the supercomputers are intel xeon though | Mar 11 05:42 |
cubezzz | ah, I think they did | Mar 11 05:42 |
cubezzz | there's still some anti-microsoft sentiment there :) | Mar 11 05:43 |
msb_ | Good! | Mar 11 05:43 |
cubezzz | at least old IBM is actually open source | Mar 11 05:43 |

cubezzz | yeah | Mar 11 05:49 |
msb_ | Very good! | Mar 11 05:50 |
msb_ | Did DEC have some kind of windowing GUI that ran on Unix before X? | Mar 11 05:50 |
cubezzz | there was the W Window System | Mar 11 05:51 |
msb_ | Doesn't ring any bells. I think it was on DEC... | Mar 11 05:51 |
cubezzz | not sure if that ran on DEC though | Mar 11 05:52 |
*freedomrun (~freedomru@unaffiliated/freedomrun) has joined #techrights | Mar 11 05:52 | |
cubezzz | but it's the ancestor of X | Mar 11 05:52 |
msb_ | No, I think it was SunOS. | Mar 11 05:52 |
msb_ | Easier to deal with than X. Even I could understand it. | Mar 11 05:53 |
msb_ | X I just have to take on faith. | Mar 11 05:53 |
msb_ | Yes, I worked on Suns for a couple years. Pizza boxes and such. | Mar 11 05:54 |
cubezzz | SunOS ran X | Mar 11 05:55 |
cubezzz | xdm and all that stuff | Mar 11 05:55 |
msb_ | But didn't it have its own GUI before X? | Mar 11 05:55 |
cubezzz | maybe really early on there was, not positive about that | Mar 11 05:57 |
msb_ | "GUI environments bundled with earlier versions of SunOS included SunTools (later SunView)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunOS#User_interface | Mar 11 05:58 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | SunOS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia [ http://ur1.ca/gtc2j ] | Mar 11 05:58 | |
cubezzz | even SunView ran on top of X | Mar 11 05:58 |
cubezzz | so before that, maybe | Mar 11 05:58 |
msb_ | I think it was SunView. | Mar 11 05:58 |
cubezzz | remember, everyone got behind X around 1986 or so | Mar 11 05:59 |
cubezzz | so before 1986 it's quite possible that they used something else | Mar 11 05:59 |
msb_ | I wrote my own simple window system for PC-DOS in C. Put up overlapping windows with text in them. | Mar 11 05:59 |
msb_ | Never got around to graphics in the windows, though. | Mar 11 06:00 |
cubezzz | here's some history of X: | Mar 11 06:00 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/history-of-x.txt | Mar 11 06:00 |
cubezzz | Xerox had something before X | Mar 11 06:02 |
msb_ | Thanks! Time marches on. | Mar 11 06:03 |
msb_ | Everything must be improved, whether it needs to be or not. | Mar 11 06:03 |
cubezzz | yeah, I think X is important | Mar 11 06:03 |
cubezzz | device independent graphics | Mar 11 06:03 |
msb_ | Has that program come back that allows you to adjust X to your monitor, instead of relying on X's wrong automatic guesses? I forget what it was called. | Mar 11 06:04 |
msb_ | Also helped set up unusual input equipment like my trackball. | Mar 11 06:05 |
cubezzz | well redhat had there redhat-config-xfree86 program | Mar 11 06:06 |
msb_ | Last time I upgraded Linux I had to get lots of hints and guesses from Suse IRC folks to make a center button by pushing left and right together. | Mar 11 06:06 |
msb_ | Suse's had a different name. 8^) | Mar 11 06:07 |
cubezzz | in the somewhat olden days there was a package called XFree86-tools | Mar 11 06:08 |
cubezzz | so whatever was in that | Mar 11 06:08 |
msb_ | I always keep all the config files and libs from the previous Linux in case I have to graft them onto the new one. | Mar 11 06:09 |
msb_ | Bilkenstein's monster. | Mar 11 06:10 |
cubezzz | it's better to understand the text files though | Mar 11 06:10 |
cubezzz | rather than rely on some gui thingamajig | Mar 11 06:10 |
msb_ | Well, yeah, I had to hack the X config files. | Mar 11 06:10 |
cubezzz | ok, now I remember what I used to do... | Mar 11 06:11 |
cubezzz | Xfree86 -configure | Mar 11 06:11 |
cubezzz | that barfs out a XF86Config text file :) | Mar 11 06:12 |
msb_ | If the gui thingamajig works and writes the config files for me, that's fine. I long ago realized that I can't understand everything in computers. Even most things. | Mar 11 06:12 |
cubezzz | well the source is there, but it's hard to absorb all of it :) | Mar 11 06:13 |
cubezzz | learning everything about X is wading into deep water | Mar 11 06:13 |
cubezzz | a lot of the young uns don't understand X too well | Mar 11 06:14 |
msb_ | it was SaX2! or maybe SaX or SaX3 | Mar 11 06:14 |
msb_ | a lot of the old uns don't either! | Mar 11 06:15 |
cubezzz | no one is saying learn the X protocol 100%, but some macro-level understanding is good | Mar 11 06:15 |
msb_ | No doubt. | Mar 11 06:15 |
msb_ | Hey, it gives us a hobby! | Mar 11 06:17 |
cubezzz | Scheifler "borrowed" a lot of W code for X | Mar 11 06:18 |
cubezzz | so MIT, DEC, IBM got together and helped build up X | Mar 11 06:19 |
msb_ | Betwen google, the previous version, and IRC, any problem can be solved. Eventually. | Mar 11 06:19 |
msb_ | Hey, ever since I blew the dust out of my cpu heatsink and such, and have kept moderate rein on Firefox, I haven't had another crash. I love watching the cpu temperature graphs in the sys mon program! | Mar 11 06:21 |

msb_ | Then I worked at a Stanford physics lab, that's where I used the Suns. | Mar 11 06:25 |
cubezzz | yeah there was Stanford Lisp | Mar 11 06:26 |
cubezzz | then MACLISP | Mar 11 06:26 |
msb_ | Even some kind of Sun 386s, that ran Unix. They were kinda crashy. | Mar 11 06:27 |
cubezzz | and 4.3BSD had a lisp interpreter | Mar 11 06:27 |
cubezzz | I was never a fan though | Mar 11 06:27 |
msb_ | When I first found out about lisp I thought it was god's primordial language. But I never got into it, except the simplified version for programming the BRIEF editor. | Mar 11 06:28 |
cubezzz | and early Sun's did run W, I | Mar 11 06:28 |
cubezzz | I'm just reading up on that | Mar 11 06:28 |
msb_ | It was probably smarter than our previous president "W". | Mar 11 06:29 |
cubezzz | don't malign the letter :) | Mar 11 06:29 |

msb_ | Yes! Give W multiple named desktops and a taskbar, and I'd be happy with it. | Mar 11 06:34 |
msb_ | And some apps, and a menu, and firefox, and... well, KDE3! | Mar 11 06:36 |
msb_ | Also mc -- I'd be lost without it. | Mar 11 06:37 |
msb_ | Have more than 50 copies running. Don't know why half of them don't show up in ps. | Mar 11 06:39 |
cubezzz | why so many? | Mar 11 06:39 |
msb_ | 20 desktops, 4-5 konsoles with mc in each. | Mar 11 06:40 |
msb_ | All together they don't use more than a couple percent of my old cpu, so I leave them up, set to the directories of interest in each desktop. | Mar 11 06:42 |
msb_ | I have an OS that could run 50 users out of this little PC. Might as well load it up with mind helpers for little old me. | Mar 11 06:43 |
msb_ | I remember when a PDP-11 timeshared for a whole university, or at least a college. And my old dual core AMD is faster. | Mar 11 06:45 |
msb_ | The human race will do great things, if we don't kill ourselves off. | Mar 11 06:46 |
msb_ | I just read where some particle accelerator is going to be improved for even higher energies, where it might make a strangelet that would convert the entire planet and everything on it into a ball of seething crap. | Mar 11 06:48 |
msb_ | Sane people would do that on a moon somewhere very far away. | Mar 11 06:48 |
msb_ | Or maybe they would never do it. | Mar 11 06:50 |
msb_ | I was thinking "another galaxy", but then it might ruin an entire galaxy. | Mar 11 06:51 |
msb_ | Well, maybe natural processes create energies far above what we can ever reach. I sure hope so. | Mar 11 06:52 |
cubezzz | yeah I don't think we can destroy galaxies :) | Mar 11 06:52 |
cubezzz | we can't even put a guy on Mars yet :) | Mar 11 06:53 |
msb_ | And if we can, we shouldn't. | Mar 11 06:53 |
msb_ | I think we almost put Carrie-Anne Moss on Mars, but she stayed in orbit. | Mar 11 06:54 |
cubezzz | I never got mc working over ssh quite right | Mar 11 06:56 |
msb_ | Ooh yeah! Red Planet 2000 | Mar 11 06:57 |
cubezzz | esc 0 works though | Mar 11 06:57 |
cubezzz | then esc esc to get out of a menu | Mar 11 06:58 |
msb_ | mc has a mailing list, maybe an irc channel. You could ask. | Mar 11 06:58 |
msb_ | They're also constantly improving it. Or at least updating it. | Mar 11 07:00 |

cubezzz | one of the problems is konsole uses f2 to make another instance of konsole | Mar 11 07:05 |
cubezzz | so that mucks things up for mc | Mar 11 07:05 |
cubezzz | but I think I've got it working OK now | Mar 11 07:06 |

genome26 | and then the author goes and has to pimp out Mono saying it's faster than native code | Mar 11 13:52 |
genome26 | why do the gnomne people tolerate this insolence? | Mar 11 13:53 |
Sosumi | no-mono and seriously no clang | Mar 11 13:53 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 11 13:53 |

MinceR | that's a big wtf in itself | Mar 11 13:54 |
Sosumi | .net makes no sense on linux | Mar 11 13:54 |
genome26 | yea | Mar 11 13:54 |
Sosumi | as it doesn't make any sense to use llvm/clang on gnu/linux either | Mar 11 13:55 |
Sosumi | clang is in fact the apple fork of llvm | Mar 11 13:56 |
MinceR | i thought it was a compiler for llvm | Mar 11 13:56 |
MinceR | that turned c[++?] code into whatever bytecode llvm runs | Mar 11 13:57 |

Sosumi | it easily burns and under display port multistream you lose display synch, forcing the display to restart itself | Mar 11 14:03 |
Sosumi | same can be expected for the asus rebrand | Mar 11 14:04 |
Sosumi | as it uses the same igzo panel | Mar 11 14:04 |
MinceR | Sosumi: so, is llvm bad also? | Mar 11 14:04 |
Sosumi | llvm is mainly bad for not being gpl | Mar 11 14:05 |

DaemonFC | J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says: | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | Well, a damaged ego can cause people to keep insisting that they're right even after it's been proven beyond a shadow of doubt that they were wrong. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | At this point, they have their honor invested in the Big Lie, and don't want to back out of it because it would force them to admit that they were deceived. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | People who are the victims of medical quackery like megadoses of herbs and vitamins who do not improve will tell other people that they did in order to save face. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | My grandparents got involved in some pyramid schemes back in the 90s, and lost over $10,000. They were telling people that they were in on some hot investment opportunities, even while they were losing their shirts. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | I remember two schemes by name that my grandparents got in on in the 90s. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | One was called Destiny Telecommunications. You got in by paying some money to be a "sales consultant" and sell phone cards to people. It turned out that the phone cards only had 20-30 minutes on them, even the ones that said they were good for several hours. The people running the scam did go to prison, as I recall, but the nature of those scams is that by the time the FBI busts them, there's almost never any money left, and the victims get back | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | pennies on the dollar. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | The other one they got taken by was called "King's Vitamins", which was going around recruiting people at churches to sell their vitamins. | Mar 11 15:48 |
DaemonFC | My grandparents got in so deep with King's Vitamins that they fell behind on their payments on their Cadillac car and had a repo company come take it back. To save face, they insisted to everyone who asked where the Cadillac went that "the engine burned up". | Mar 11 15:48 |

DaemonFC | I posted this on Amazon in regard to Apple and Microsoft's patent trolling of Android: | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | I just don't want to see Android and Firefox OS chased off the market by devices from Microsoft and Apple that really aren't all that good at all. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | Even the minimal improvements that Microsoft and Apple make between generations of phones would slow or stop if there was no Android challenging them, and moving the technology forward. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | It would be like that time where Internet Explorer 6 had 97% of the browser market, and Microsoft openly declared that it would be the last major version of Internet Explorer ever. They were just going to stop and leave people with Internet Explorer 6 forever with basically no improvements. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | They even backed up that announcement by firing 90% of the IE team. Then they sneered at Firefox and let it get about 10 years ahead of Internet Explorer before they did anything about it at all. | Mar 11 19:57 |
DaemonFC | This is what companies like Microsoft and Apple do when there's nobody moving the game forward. | Mar 11 19:57 |

msb__ | Regarding: "<DaemonFC> People who are the victims of medical quackery like megadoses of herbs and vitamins who do not improve will tell other people that they did in order to save face." | Mar 11 20:23 |
msb__ | It's important to know that what is called "megadose" of Vitamin C really is not. | Mar 11 20:23 |
msb__ | The govt RDA of vit C is about 200mg, which is enough to prevent scurvy and some other severe deficiency diseases, but it is nowhere near the amount that we need. | Mar 11 20:25 |
msb__ | When we were living in trees we lost the last enzyme in the chain that makes ascorbic acid, because we were getting several grams/day from fruit. | Mar 11 20:26 |
cubezzz | msb_, I got something for you | Mar 11 20:26 |
cubezzz | computerworld from 1972 | Mar 11 20:27 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/cw-1972-may-03.tar.gz | Mar 11 20:27 |
msb__ | Animals other than great apes (and maybe guinea pigs) make about 5 grams/day when healthy, and up to 70grams/day when they have a viral infection. | Mar 11 20:27 |
cubezzz | how much vitamin C should we per day? | Mar 11 20:29 |
cubezzz | should we take | Mar 11 20:29 |
msb__ | 3 metric tons | Mar 11 20:29 |
msb__ | No, actually about 5 grams/day. | Mar 11 20:30 |
msb__ | Or if you're feeling low, 5 grams twice a day. | Mar 11 20:32 |
cubezzz | yeah it's hard to know if your getting enough nutrition from the food you eat | Mar 11 20:33 |
msb__ | Generally you're not, and it's worth a buck a day or so to take supplements. | Mar 11 20:34 |
msb__ | fish oil, various antioxidants, Bs, C, ubiquinol, sublingual B12, minerals, A (carotene), D3,... | Mar 11 20:36 |
msb__ | Especially as one gets older and doesn't make or absorb nutrients that we used to. | Mar 11 20:37 |
msb__ | Like B12. Very important, but useless orally, except under the tongue. | Mar 11 20:37 |
msb__ | That's why middle-aged an older people get B12 shots. But sublingual is just as good. | Mar 11 20:40 |

Sosumi | I was just joking | Mar 11 20:49 |

msb__ | It often totally ignores what isn't profitable. Vitamin C can be lifesaving in serious viral infections, but drug companies can't make money on it, so it doesn't get advertised or published in medical journals. Most doctors don't know what natural doses of it can do. | Mar 11 21:30 |

MinceR | what evidence is there for massive doses of vitamin C being effective at all? | Mar 11 21:31 |
MinceR | flu shots in particular i'm not too sure of, as i've never had serious issues from flu infections | Mar 11 21:32 |

MinceR | "tapwater with high Al content" is very different from "vaccine containing thiomersal" | Mar 11 21:51 |
MinceR | 224715 < msb__> As to quantity and compound, I don't want *any* thank you very much. | Mar 11 21:51 |
MinceR | see, this has nothing to do with the scientific method | Mar 11 21:51 |
MinceR | or modern medicine. | Mar 11 21:51 |
msb__ | Of course, two different poisons. | Mar 11 21:51 |
MinceR | also, apparently thiomersal was already phased out of many vaccines | Mar 11 21:52 |
MinceR | even though there's no convincing evidence about the harm | Mar 11 21:52 |
MinceR | and pretty much everything is a poison, in the right dose | Mar 11 21:52 |
MinceR | so dosage _is_ important | Mar 11 21:52 |
MinceR | for example, oxygen can be poisonous at too high doses, but try living without it | Mar 11 21:53 |
MinceR | as for vaccines, the proper way to determine risk would probably be via real clinical trial, not speculation based on what element was found where. | Mar 11 21:53 |
MinceR | apparently in the case of O2, pressure is important as well as concentration | Mar 11 21:54 |
MinceR | (space suits use low pressure pure O2) | Mar 11 21:54 |
MinceR | water can be poisonous as well | Mar 11 21:54 |
MinceR | etc. | Mar 11 21:55 |
msb__ | So can stupidity. | Mar 11 21:55 |
MinceR | not in the same sense | Mar 11 21:55 |
Sosumi | play nice folks | Mar 11 21:58 |
MinceR | also, thiomersal will probably not harm you. but pertussis will kill you. :> | Mar 11 22:00 |
MinceR | and so will TBC. | Mar 11 22:00 |
Sosumi | just remember what dalton said | Mar 11 22:00 |
Sosumi | everything is poison and nothing is poison | Mar 11 22:01 |
Sosumi | it's just a matter of quantity | Mar 11 22:01 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 11 22:02 |
Sosumi | gn | Mar 11 22:03 |
MinceR | o/ | Mar 11 22:03 |
MinceR | squalene is (allegedly) mostly used for non-human vaccines and might even be beneficial | Mar 11 22:04 |
MinceR | also, squalene is a vital part of the synthesis of sterols, including cholesterol and vitamin D -- so the "Al in water => Al is evil" theory would mean no vitamin D or lipoproteins for you :> | Mar 11 22:08 |

msb__ | I have done extensive trials on Vit C for viruses -- 50 years on myself for colds and flu, a couple of cats, and a 5-year old with measles (of course with doses scaled to body weight). In all cases there was relief of symptoms within 1-3 hours, and eventual return of symptoms a few hours after that, whereupon I began continuous treatment for a few days. | Mar 12 01:46 |
msb__ | Since the cats and kid didn't know what they were getting, that was a blind experiment. I've also given it to various adults, with the same results. | Mar 12 01:47 |

MinceR | so much for that dream world | Mar 12 15:00 |
Sosumi | when is taken to the extremes | Mar 12 15:05 |
Sosumi | yes | Mar 12 15:05 |
Sosumi | just like the US | Mar 12 15:05 |
MinceR | they can't even provide enough toilet paper to their people^Wserfs | Mar 12 15:08 |
Sosumi | well | Mar 12 15:08 |
Sosumi | there are tent cities in the US with people that dropped out of the labor market and can't find a job | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | which don't even account for the unemployment % | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | same also happens in japan | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | with cardboard cities | Mar 12 15:09 |
Sosumi | it is like I just said | Mar 12 15:10 |
Sosumi | when certain things are taken to the extreme | Mar 12 15:10 |
Sosumi | no good outcome can come out of that | Mar 12 15:10 |
Sosumi | did I forget detroit? | Mar 12 15:10 |
MinceR | maybe the turbo-republicans will succeed at destroying the economy to the point where they can sell cheap labor like the PRC does now :> | Mar 12 15:10 |
Sosumi | cheap labor? | Mar 12 15:11 |
Sosumi | more like sweat shop labor | Mar 12 15:11 |
MinceR | indeed. | Mar 12 15:11 |
MinceR | modern slavery | Mar 12 15:11 |
Sosumi | those folks don't even earn the required money to buy what they manufacture | Mar 12 15:11 |
Sosumi | and then you have companies | Mar 12 15:12 |
Sosumi | putting 90% markups on products | Mar 12 15:12 |
Sosumi | hey, like apple does | Mar 12 15:12 |
Sosumi | which is an exaggeration | Mar 12 15:14 |
Sosumi | other companies do that too, just to sound premium | Mar 12 15:15 |
Sosumi | like samsung was doing with the galaxy s4 | Mar 12 15:15 |
Sosumi | by releasing it at the same price as the iphone | Mar 12 15:15 |
Sosumi | to them lower the price by 200€ in 2 months | Mar 12 15:15 |
MinceR | because the idiotic buyers believe that the hypePhone is premium and that it's worth its price | Mar 12 15:17 |
Sosumi | but the s4 isn't premium either | Mar 12 15:17 |
MinceR | at least the s4 is a smartphone | Mar 12 15:18 |
MinceR | and a high-end one at that, iirc | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | one is a piece of crippled crap with fancy looks | Mar 12 15:18 |
MinceR | i wonder if samsung is still pushing region locking | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | the other is turd made of plastic that doesn't get the updates at the same time google updates android | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | and yes | Mar 12 15:18 |
Sosumi | the region locking | Mar 12 15:19 |
Sosumi | which makes no sense | Mar 12 15:19 |
MinceR | only nexus devices get the updates when google updates android | Mar 12 15:19 |
MinceR | and there are good reasons for some of the delays | Mar 12 15:19 |
Sosumi | but samsung could at least use a metallic frame on their phones to add some resistance to screen | Mar 12 15:20 |
Sosumi | just in case someone accidentally sited on the phone | Mar 12 15:21 |
Sosumi | or applied some pressure | Mar 12 15:21 |
*abeNd-org (~kklenke@rrcs-50-84-221-254.sw.biz.rr.com) has joined #techrights | Mar 12 15:21 | |
Sosumi | or at least make the phone bulky | Mar 12 15:21 |
Sosumi | if they must indeed use plastic | Mar 12 15:22 |
Sosumi | it is just bad that the htc is kind of going under | Mar 12 15:22 |

MinceR | how do metal frames do in drop tests? | Mar 12 15:25 |
Sosumi | they get scratches | Mar 12 15:25 |
MinceR | sure, but does the display stay in one piece, does the phone keep working? | Mar 12 15:26 |
MinceR | all the drop tests i've seen resulted in an unusable phone | Mar 12 15:26 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | I just mentioned into resistance to deformation | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | from sitting on the top of the phone | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | and even if the phone is made of plastic | Mar 12 15:27 |
Sosumi | those smartphonesa with big screen | Mar 12 15:28 |
msb__ | US support for fascist groups in Venezuela, and US media lying that the V govt is the source of the violence is the same strategy that the US just used in Ukraine. | Mar 12 15:28 |
Sosumi | I recomend to never let them fall | Mar 12 15:28 |
Sosumi | venezuela, US sponsored opposition promoting distabilization and bolivar governement not being of much help to the future survival of the country | Mar 12 15:29 |
Sosumi | of which in my opinion, was modeled after chaves personality | Mar 12 15:30 |
Sosumi | and dies with him | Mar 12 15:30 |
Sosumi | *died | Mar 12 15:30 |
msb__ | Sadly, MinceR favors the US and the internal fascists in both cases, posting an article calling socialism a "mad experiment", and in his comment, a "dream world". | Mar 12 15:31 |
Sosumi | socialism is a mad experiment | Mar 12 15:31 |
msb__ | Capitalism that is not severely regulated is a murderous psychopath experiment. | Mar 12 15:32 |
Sosumi | but so is anarcho/neo/degenerate-liberal and libertarian capitalism | Mar 12 15:32 |
msb__ | same thing | Mar 12 15:33 |
Sosumi | that is why when it comes to those things | Mar 12 15:33 |
msb__ | ...capitalism that is not severely regulated | Mar 12 15:33 |
Sosumi | I recommend the balanced approach | Mar 12 15:33 |
msb__ | Social democracy works. | Mar 12 15:34 |
Sosumi | with the required regulations and safety nets so that no one gets the shaft | Mar 12 15:34 |
msb__ | So does democratic socialism when it isn't attacked by fascists. | Mar 12 15:34 |
Sosumi | and if they do get the shaft, well, at least try to minize the damage done | Mar 12 15:34 |
msb__ | Sosumi: yes | Mar 12 15:34 |
Sosumi | also, social democracy doesn't work | Mar 12 15:35 |
Sosumi | people are too misguided | Mar 12 15:35 |
Sosumi | to the point they'd probably vote in for their own enslavement | Mar 12 15:35 |
msb__ | That occurs because corporate media lies to them, so they don't know what's going on, and thus whom to vote for. | Mar 12 15:36 |
msb__ | ...for their own benefit. | Mar 12 15:36 |
Sosumi | corporate media tells what fits the needs of their parent companies | Mar 12 15:37 |
Sosumi | I wander since when was the duty of media to tell the truth | Mar 12 15:37 |

msb__ | Yes, which is exactly the opposite of what fits the needs of the people. | Mar 12 15:37 |
Sosumi | well, if the people don't know better | Mar 12 15:37 |
msb__ | It was always the duty, but rarely the actuality. | Mar 12 15:38 |
Sosumi | let them suffer | Mar 12 15:38 |
msb__ | That's an anti-human idea. | Mar 12 15:38 |
Sosumi | that is a realistic idea | Mar 12 15:38 |
msb__ | So you think people should suffer if they are lied to by Bernays-style massive propaganda. | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | can you be stressed out by people of which you tell how things are | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | yest they continue to do the same over and over again | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | that is the very definition of madness | Mar 12 15:39 |
Sosumi | just like repeating the same experiment and expecting different result | Mar 12 15:40 |
Sosumi | *results | Mar 12 15:40 |
msb__ | please reformulate. I could not parse that sentence starting with "can you..." | Mar 12 15:40 |
Sosumi | I'm working... | Mar 12 15:41 |
Sosumi | not even looked at the irc window | Mar 12 15:41 |
Sosumi | can you stress yourself out about people that even presented with the information | Mar 12 15:41 |
Sosumi | continue to do the same crap? | Mar 12 15:41 |
Sosumi | I can't | Mar 12 15:41 |
msb__ | There are only a few people who access accurate info, ie, on the Web. | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | just on the web? | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | what about books | Mar 12 15:43 |
msb__ | Pretty much. | Mar 12 15:43 |
msb__ | They don't reach many people. | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | what about many of the ideals that still predominate today? like the works of malthus | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | what about Carrol quigley's books? | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | what about charles goulton darwin's books? | Mar 12 15:44 |
msb__ | I just read that he was in favor of rule by a wealthy few. | Mar 12 15:44 |

msb__ | (quigley) | Mar 12 15:44 |

Sosumi | the info is there | Mar 12 15:45 |

msb__ | They don't talk about current fascist takeovers, which is what people need to know about. | Mar 12 15:45 |
Sosumi | what about current "fascist" takeovers? | Mar 12 15:45 |
Sosumi | what ukraine? | Mar 12 15:45 |
msb__ | Ukraine, Libya, attempts in Venezuela, Syria | Mar 12 15:46 |
Sosumi | there have been plenty of them through history | Mar 12 15:46 |
Sosumi | in order to formulate a pattern | Mar 12 15:46 |
Sosumi | if people actually cared to study historic precedents to war, revolutions and so on | Mar 12 15:47 |
Sosumi | they'd understand | Mar 12 15:47 |
msb__ | People are programmed not to think by JCI religion, schooling, etc. They need to have the patterns described for them so they can easily understand. | Mar 12 15:48 |
Sosumi | that's a poor excuse | Mar 12 15:48 |
Sosumi | programming? what programming? | Mar 12 15:49 |
Sosumi | they just teach you at school the basics | Mar 12 15:49 |

msb__ | No, at school -- grades 1 to 12 -- you are taught to believe what you're told, not question it, and regurgitate it, else you are punished. | Mar 12 15:50 |
Sosumi | I was never punished for questioning | Mar 12 15:51 |
msb__ | Possibly the unnoticed programming is responsible for your belief that people who are flooded with lying propaganda deserve to suffer. | Mar 12 15:51 |
Sosumi | I just took the classes and at the end of the day would go to the library seek more info | Mar 12 15:51 |
Sosumi | well, they bring it onto themselves, don't they? | Mar 12 15:52 |

Sosumi | what good does a person like that bring | Mar 12 15:53 |
msb__ | Not much, if they are programmed not to think. | Mar 12 15:53 |
Sosumi | ho yes, the poor victim who can't discern what is good and what is bad | Mar 12 15:53 |
msb__ | Because they swim in a sea of lies. | Mar 12 15:53 |
Sosumi | do them? | Mar 12 15:54 |
msb__ | That's the Bernays technique. Are you familiar with it? | Mar 12 15:54 |
Sosumi | or they just swim through their xbox library and tv channels | Mar 12 15:54 |
Sosumi | and do not care about anything else | Mar 12 15:54 |

Sosumi | I deal with people every single day | Mar 12 15:55 |

msb__ | So, apparently you have no empathy. Do you know the name of that condition? | Mar 12 15:56 |
Sosumi | ho yes, I have a junior student asking me to solve him a calculus problem | Mar 12 15:57 |
Sosumi | so instead of giving him directions | Mar 12 15:57 |
Sosumi | I solve the exercise for him | Mar 12 15:57 |
msb__ | Very different situation. He is not being lied to to prevent him from solving it. | Mar 12 15:57 |
Sosumi | and he learns nothing | Mar 12 15:57 |
Sosumi | same thing | Mar 12 15:57 |

Sosumi | and ppl continue suffering the repercussions to this day | Mar 12 16:06 |
msb__ | You have changed the topic of conversation away from your total lack of empathy for populations lied to by ubiquitous fascist proganda. | Mar 12 16:06 |
Sosumi | so the kill counter is still ticking | Mar 12 16:06 |
Sosumi | what empathy? | Mar 12 16:06 |
msb__ | Because you can't deal with that topic. | Mar 12 16:06 |
msb__ | Exactly -- you have none. That is the definition of a sociopath/psychopath. | Mar 12 16:07 |

msb__ | You have changed the topic of conversation away from your total lack of empathy for populations lied to by ubiquitous fascist proganda. | Mar 12 16:07 |

msb__ | Giving people accurate information is not being a "messiah". | Mar 12 16:20 |
Sosumi | but do the people want the information you're giving them? | Mar 12 16:21 |
Sosumi | did they ASK for it? | Mar 12 16:21 |
Sosumi | that goes to the point of saying jesus died to save us from our sin | Mar 12 16:22 |
Sosumi | but how many did actually want to be saved? | Mar 12 16:22 |
Sosumi | or actually knew what salvation was? | Mar 12 16:22 |
Sosumi | got the point? | Mar 12 16:22 |
Sosumi | messiah msb__ | Mar 12 16:22 |
msb__ | Obviously you don't, Sosumi. You have no empathy, you said "<Sosumi> shiklegruber was actually a kewl guy", and you are ignorant of Bernays. | Mar 12 16:22 |
cubezzz | I wouldn't give a linux disc to an Amish person :) | Mar 12 16:23 |
Sosumi | well, or the messiah msb__ would have to save them from the evils of technology | Mar 12 16:24 |
Sosumi | and then he would be called the luddite messiah msb__ | Mar 12 16:24 |
cubezzz | people are pretty ignorant though | Mar 12 16:25 |
msb__ | Wow, I have a whole new psychopath stalker! | Mar 12 16:25 |
Sosumi | although he kind of fits more on the context of the unibomber messiah msb__ | Mar 12 16:25 |
cubezzz | but there has to be some level of willingness to learn for anyone to absorb useful info | Mar 12 16:25 |
Sosumi | follower of the church of ted kashinski | Mar 12 16:25 |
cubezzz | Kaczynski was a giant social misfit | Mar 12 16:26 |
Sosumi | but he did make valid points | Mar 12 16:26 |
Sosumi | on his manifesto | Mar 12 16:26 |
Sosumi | and would have made a great ethicist | Mar 12 16:27 |
msb__ | Sosumi's heroes: Hitler and Ted Kaczynski. | Mar 12 16:29 |
cubezzz | except he bombed computer folks | Mar 12 16:29 |
cubezzz | kind of a downer | Mar 12 16:29 |
msb__ | It's nice to have an IRC client that logs everything. | Mar 12 16:30 |
Sosumi | nop, | Mar 12 16:30 |
cubezzz | at least guys like Paul Ehrlich who wrote about the ills of society managed to not bomb people | Mar 12 16:30 |

Sosumi | Sosumi's heroes, Gotfried Leibnetz, Ben Franklin, Bill Cooper, Norbert Wiener | Mar 12 16:31 |
Sosumi | just to name a few | Mar 12 16:31 |
Sosumi | Paul fits into the neo-malthusion demagogy | Mar 12 16:32 |
*sebsebseb_ has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) | Mar 12 16:32 | |
Sosumi | along with the john p holdren | Mar 12 16:32 |
Sosumi | which has been proven wrong and wrong time after time | Mar 12 16:33 |
Sosumi | about the ideas of limits to grow | Mar 12 16:33 |
Sosumi | and it goes as I say | Mar 12 16:33 |
Sosumi | this planet and solar system wont last forever | Mar 12 16:33 |
Sosumi | so, spread the population throughout the solar system at first and then the universe | Mar 12 16:34 |
Sosumi | and it would actually create a much better pretext for a perpetual peace | Mar 12 16:35 |
Sosumi | instead of the club of rome ideal | Mar 12 16:35 |
Sosumi | of having man as the "enemy" of the environment | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | again, neo-malthusianism | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | and jokingly or not | Mar 12 16:36 |
Sosumi | my approach is one of the options on the iron mountain protocol | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | that bill cooper used to boast about | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | back when he was still alive | Mar 12 16:37 |
cubezzz | that's a fine idea except there aren't any other planets we can live on | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | terraform mars? | Mar 12 16:37 |
Sosumi | isn't there water on the moon? | Mar 12 16:37 |
cubezzz | no atmosphere to speak of | Mar 12 16:38 |
cubezzz | rather a big problem | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | what about sending self assembly autonomous biospeheres | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | there aren't any yet? | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | no problemo, just make them | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | instead of making tanks and airplanes | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | and waging war | Mar 12 16:38 |
Sosumi | and actually deplenting resources on useless crap | Mar 12 16:39 |
Sosumi | messiah msb__, went to talk to his earthly father for advice | Mar 12 16:40 |
cubezzz | sure, _if_ we had infinite energy and transmutation of element technology we could terraform Mars | Mar 12 16:40 |
cubezzz | and make Earth a lot better :) | Mar 12 16:40 |
Sosumi | well specially since such redirection | Mar 12 16:41 |
cubezzz | once you can change co2 into oxygen you got it made | Mar 12 16:41 |
Sosumi | would put to an end into finding better ways to blow ppl to bits | Mar 12 16:42 |
Sosumi | and would phase out the military industrial complex | Mar 12 16:42 |
Sosumi | in the way that they'd still get the bucks | Mar 12 16:43 |
Sosumi | but by doing something good | Mar 12 16:43 |
cubezzz | nuclear fusion tech would help a lot | Mar 12 16:43 |
Sosumi | yes it would | Mar 12 16:43 |
Sosumi | I was actually happy about hearing the news that came from the laurence livermore lab | Mar 12 16:44 |
Sosumi | at least it confirmed that the pursuit of fusion isn't dead yet | Mar 12 16:44 |
cubezzz | cold fusion turned out to be a lemon | Mar 12 16:44 |
Sosumi | cold fusion is only popular with the UFOol folks | Mar 12 16:47 |
Sosumi | those have been the ones boasting about it | Mar 12 16:48 |
Sosumi | as for me, I'm not saying it is impossble | Mar 12 16:48 |
Sosumi | *impossible | Mar 12 16:48 |
cubezzz | there's some talk of plants being able to transmute elements | Mar 12 16:48 |
Sosumi | but until further developments, grain of salt must be taken | Mar 12 16:49 |
Sosumi | transmute elements? like breaking them down for abortion? | Mar 12 16:49 |
Sosumi | *absorption | Mar 12 16:50 |

cubezzz | Komaki has conclusively proven that bacteria can transmute sodium into potassium | Mar 12 16:52 |
cubezzz | using very little energy | Mar 12 16:53 |
cubezzz | worth a look I'd say | Mar 12 16:53 |
Sosumi | I'll give it a read later | Mar 12 16:53 |
Sosumi | also, that is from Tom Bearden; I remember that guy | Mar 12 16:55 |
Sosumi | colonel I think? | Mar 12 16:55 |
Sosumi | who set himself in the search for Tesla's lost papers | Mar 12 16:55 |
Sosumi | about scalar waves | Mar 12 16:55 |
cubezzz | he does have a Phd I think | Mar 12 16:56 |
cubezzz | oh wait, maybe he doesn't :) | Mar 12 16:57 |
cubezzz | seems that Martin Gardner shot him down somewhat | Mar 12 16:57 |
cubezzz | but I've heard about the increase selenium produced by plants from other sources | Mar 12 16:58 |
Sosumi | he "had" one of which he bought | Mar 12 16:59 |

msb__ | "<MinceR> sadly, msb__ favors dictatorships so long as they call themselves "socialist" or "communist"" MinceR is lying. I never said any such thing. I said I favor social democracy or democratic socialism. Never a dictatorship. | Mar 12 19:00 |

cubezzz | cubelog is watching you all :) | Mar 12 19:01 |
MinceR | yes, and dictatorships like to call themselves "socialist", "communist", "people's democratic republic", etc. | Mar 12 19:01 |
MinceR | i see beyond the curtain, msb__ does not. | Mar 12 19:01 |
Sosumi | the messiah msb__ is back after consulting with his earthly father | Mar 12 19:01 |
Sosumi | or was it heavenly *canabis breath* father | Mar 12 19:01 |
msb__ | Great, the two lying psychopaths are attacking me together. | Mar 12 19:02 |
cubezzz | can't we just make derisive comments about microsoft like the olden days? | Mar 12 19:03 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-cubexyz.blogspot.ca | Notes on Linux: The Eternal Distro [ http://ur1.ca/gtvp8 ] | Mar 12 19:31 | |
Sosumi | I think the idea is great, but at the same kind of comparing to running the marathon with a leg tied behind my back | Mar 12 19:44 |
Sosumi | given the amount of hardware that gets dumped each year | Mar 12 19:44 |
Sosumi | specially from the gamer croud | Mar 12 19:44 |
Sosumi | *crowd | Mar 12 19:44 |
Sosumi | everyone and you could always get cheap upgrades | Mar 12 19:45 |
Sosumi | and a p3 is ancient | Mar 12 19:45 |
Sosumi | specially a 500Mhz | Mar 12 19:46 |
Sosumi | and the thing is just not about the upgrade treadmill | Mar 12 19:48 |
Sosumi | but as the complexity of the software increases so does the need for faster hardware | Mar 12 19:48 |
Sosumi | and I'm in doubt | Mar 12 19:49 |
Sosumi | for things like a server, doesn't the current version of fedora run on a p3? | Mar 12 19:49 |
cubezzz | read Vance Packard "The Waste Makers" and you might change your mind | Mar 12 19:50 |
MinceR | even the complexity of the data increases :> | Mar 12 19:50 |
Sosumi | hardly, when I buy faster hardware is mostly because I outgrew what I had | Mar 12 19:50 |
cubezzz | I found newer Fedora less reliable to be honest | Mar 12 19:50 |
MinceR | and that of websites, unfortunately | Mar 12 19:50 |
cubezzz | well badly designed web designs is a poor excuse | Mar 12 19:51 |
cubezzz | we live in a society of waste, it's well over the top | Mar 12 19:52 |
Sosumi | but that waste brings progress and further advancement | Mar 12 19:53 |
Sosumi | what could be considered waste | Mar 12 19:54 |
cubezzz | ewaste, the world's full of it | Mar 12 19:54 |
Sosumi | is the use and trow away tech | Mar 12 19:54 |
Sosumi | like those prebuilt computers with no standard parts | Mar 12 19:55 |
cubezzz | plastics, chip fab, all need highly caustic chemicals | Mar 12 19:55 |
cubezzz | which end up in your soil | Mar 12 19:55 |
cubezzz | I'm merely suggesting cutting back on that | Mar 12 19:55 |
cubezzz | well I would suggest not buying bic-lighter computers :) | Mar 12 19:57 |
Sosumi | the biggest factor contributing to that is consumer tech | Mar 12 19:58 |
Sosumi | I don't see how it'd be possible to cut on that | Mar 12 19:59 |
Sosumi | ppl want crap, manufacturers give them crap | Mar 12 19:59 |
MinceR | manufacturers also make crap that nobody wants | Mar 12 20:00 |
MinceR | i.e. winblows phone phones | Mar 12 20:00 |
cubezzz | I don't think people really want crap, I think they just aren't thinking about it | Mar 12 20:00 |
Sosumi | I'm certainly not the one buying a big tv totally overblown colors | Mar 12 20:00 |
MinceR | people want crap so much they're willing to pay more for worse | Mar 12 20:00 |
MinceR | for example, for hypePhones | Mar 12 20:00 |
Sosumi | hypePhones, bang & ollufsen, etc | Mar 12 20:01 |
cubezzz | I like getting an old computer and fixing it up | Mar 12 20:02 |
Sosumi | fit into the model of a huge price premium just for the sake of exclusivity | Mar 12 20:02 |
Sosumi | and "perceived value" | Mar 12 20:02 |
cubezzz | "The Hidden Persauders" 1957 :) | Mar 12 20:02 |
cubezzz | also by Vance Packard | Mar 12 20:03 |
Sosumi | Bernays mentioned that on his book Propaganda, messiah complex msb__ | Mar 12 20:03 |
cubezzz | Sun Microsystems had a lot of very interesting ideas to make computers more reliable | Mar 12 20:03 |
Sosumi | "had" | Mar 12 20:04 |
Sosumi | I'm still longing for a new sparc station or powerstation | Mar 12 20:04 |
cubezzz | I think Sun Oracle still sell servers | Mar 12 20:05 |
cubezzz | no idea what the prices are, I assume big $$$ | Mar 12 20:05 |
Sosumi | yes, just servers | Mar 12 20:05 |
cubezzz | glibc is bloated too | Mar 12 20:07 |
cubezzz | hence the creation of dietlibc | Mar 12 20:09 |
cubezzz | the funny part about this is I've had this same convo 10 years ago :) | Mar 12 20:14 |
cubezzz | "come on, systems these days need at least 256 megs of ram" | Mar 12 20:15 |
cubezzz | "get rid of that crappy Pentium 1" | Mar 12 20:15 |
MinceR | one problem with the Eternal Distro is that at some point some packages would cease to receive security updates | Mar 12 20:16 |
MinceR | from upstream | Mar 12 20:16 |
cubezzz | 2.11BSD still gets patches | Mar 12 20:20 |
cubezzz | but that doesn't run on actual hardware in my case | Mar 12 20:20 |
cubezzz | some packages in openbsd are from the 90's | Mar 12 20:23 |
cubezzz | some stuff gets orphaned, the creator loses interest, it happens | Mar 12 20:26 |
MinceR | does it update applications and libraries that are 4 or more stable major releases ahead of what it ships? :> | Mar 12 20:28 |
MinceR | at some point, the upstream developer's response to requests for security fixes becomes "just upgrade already, that release is 10 years old!" :> | Mar 12 20:29 |
MinceR | there's only so many releases they can maintain simultaneously | Mar 12 20:30 |

MinceR | looks like samsung took the same approach here as with the exynos 4 /dev/exynos-mem device | Mar 12 20:44 |
MinceR | (i.e. make a much bigger hole than necessary) | Mar 12 20:45 |
Sosumi | so much for the knox platform hey samsung | Mar 12 20:48 |
MinceR | indeed | Mar 12 20:48 |
MinceR | there should be high-end phones that communicate with the radio chip via serial link, not DMA | Mar 12 20:49 |
Sosumi | until them, 300€ netbook + 3g modem | Mar 12 20:50 |
Sosumi | and I actually once got asked | Mar 12 20:50 |
MinceR | that won't do non-voip phone calls and you can't answer calls on the street :> | Mar 12 20:51 |
Sosumi | if I was some kind of mafia guy for that combo | Mar 12 20:51 |
Sosumi | I don't people to call me | Mar 12 20:51 |
Sosumi | just send me an email | Mar 12 20:51 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 12 20:51 |
Sosumi | the last thing I need are the same people I have to deal with everyday also bothering me when I'm away from them | Mar 12 20:52 |
Sosumi | and doing pointless talk | Mar 12 20:53 |
Sosumi | just writing it down on email, takes less time and it makes it much easier | Mar 12 20:53 |
MinceR | unfortunately some of the people i keep contact with don't use email | Mar 12 20:54 |
Sosumi | without the need to yell at the phone because, say transit, radio, chatter and so on | Mar 12 20:54 |
Sosumi | voice calls are just for VIP | Mar 12 20:55 |
Sosumi | and are usually taken at home | Mar 12 20:55 |

Sosumi | warnuts McCain | Mar 12 20:56 |
Sosumi | but the problem this time is that McCain isn't messing with the banana republic of Syria nor Iran | Mar 12 20:57 |
Sosumi | it is messing with the nuclear banana of russia | Mar 12 20:57 |

Sosumi | :( | Mar 12 21:41 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: however he has donated all his computer stuff to Mageia it seems | Mar 12 21:42 |
Sosumi | that was a honorable thing to do | Mar 12 21:44 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: yeah well he had like three computers i THINK | Mar 12 21:45 |
sebsebseb | pluswhatever else | Mar 12 21:45 |
sebsebseb | and Magiea was his life at the end and very much so | Mar 12 21:45 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: even when he was rather unwell he e | Mar 12 21:45 |
sebsebseb | he felt bad that he coudn't just contribute anymore | Mar 12 21:45 |
Sosumi | how old was he? | Mar 12 21:46 |
sebsebseb | 50 something | Mar 12 21:46 |
Sosumi | well you know | Mar 12 21:46 |
Sosumi | life is short and he did use his limited time to make it count | Mar 12 21:47 |
sebsebseb | yeah | Mar 12 21:47 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: also I am wondeirng what has happended to someone else | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | that been chatting a lot to online | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she might have died as well, I really don't know | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | and no way to just find out etc | Mar 12 21:48 |
Sosumi | also involved in mageia? | Mar 12 21:48 |
sebsebseb | nope | Mar 12 21:49 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: just a girl I came across online (or whoever they really are) | Mar 12 21:49 |
sebsebseb | ,but also one that woudn't do anything, but online text hmm | Mar 12 21:49 |
sebsebseb | well ok I saw some photos to, but that's it | Mar 12 21:49 |
Sosumi | online on irc? | Mar 12 21:50 |

sebsebseb | not IRC | Mar 12 21:50 |
Sosumi | have you seen if she changed the nick? | Mar 12 21:50 |
Sosumi | or probably just moved over onto something else | Mar 12 21:50 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she only has me on the particular chat account apparnatly to | Mar 12 21:52 |
sebsebseb | and won't just add to Facebook and uh | Mar 12 21:52 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: so basically I just lose contact | Mar 12 21:52 |

sebsebseb | Sosumi: I can't really explain stuff properly enough, but this person wow | Mar 12 21:53 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 12 21:53 |
sebsebseb | ,but then issues | Mar 12 21:53 |
sebsebseb | plus got in contact wht someone else, and then she tsopped chatting to me loads etc | Mar 12 21:53 |
sebsebseb | and uh | Mar 12 21:53 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ,but really annoyingly the communication issues | Mar 12 21:54 |
Sosumi | communication issues in what sense? improper language? | Mar 12 21:54 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no as in refusing to do anything more than just instant messagingin | Mar 12 21:55 |
sebsebseb | and occasioan emails maybe | Mar 12 21:55 |
sebsebseb | and not adding me onto whatever account hte other guy is on etc | Mar 12 21:55 |
sebsebseb | or Facebook even etc | Mar 12 21:55 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and not doing any voice thing, SKype or some other voip thing, or the phone even | Mar 12 21:56 |
sebsebseb | anyway it's been about four months now, and she may not be coming back this time it seems | Mar 12 21:56 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she may have got a bit upset at me in the last chat in fact as well | Mar 12 21:56 |
Sosumi | was she good looking? | Mar 12 21:56 |
Sosumi | had to ask ;) | Mar 12 21:57 |
sebsebseb | yeah I guess or enough | Mar 12 21:57 |
sebsebseb | ,but it's the personality what she is like and such, that's the wow | Mar 12 21:57 |
sebsebseb | except for the communicaiotn issues | Mar 12 21:57 |
sebsebseb | and things like that | Mar 12 21:57 |
Sosumi | how so? | Mar 12 21:58 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: eh nevermind | Mar 12 21:59 |
Sosumi | then I'll just my fertile imagination to draw a picture of her :P | Mar 12 22:00 |
Sosumi | *use | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: oh you mean looks? | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: uhmm she has brown hair it seems | Mar 12 22:00 |
Sosumi | I meant her personality | Mar 12 22:00 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she's not the averare girl | Mar 12 22:01 |
sebsebseb | really isn't the averaet girl | Mar 12 22:01 |
sebsebseb | a rare find | Mar 12 22:01 |
Sosumi | since that was the WoW factor | Mar 12 22:01 |
Sosumi | tell tell | Mar 12 22:01 |
sebsebseb | and I foundher onine, and then uh everything changed hmm | Mar 12 22:01 |
sebsebseb | after about 8 months | Mar 12 22:01 |
sebsebseb | shame | Mar 12 22:01 |
Sosumi | you still didn't explain what was WOWing about her | Mar 12 22:02 |
Sosumi | but it is ok :) | Mar 12 22:02 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: you won't realy understandl | Mar 12 22:03 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: it's just the chats we had and such | Mar 12 22:03 |
sebsebseb | that's the wow | Mar 12 22:03 |
sebsebseb | how well we got on etc | Mar 12 22:03 |
sebsebseb | well until most stuff changed, and changed a lot changed pretty much completly really even uh :( | Mar 12 22:03 |
Sosumi | you fell in love | Mar 12 22:05 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: yeah basically as far as net went, but keeping reality in mind, not voiced, notmet etc, and them probably not realy feeliing the same way or not quite | Mar 12 22:06 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and then she came across some guy who was more interesting than me | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | online | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | and yep everthing chaned | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | and changed a lot | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and we went from chatting nearly every day | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | to hardly at all | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | loads of periods of lots of weeks no chat | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | her not on etc | Mar 12 22:07 |
sebsebseb | ,but now it's been the longest one, so I am wondeirng what's going on | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | ,because of helath issues etc | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | uh | Mar 12 22:08 |
Sosumi | did she have health issues? | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | yep | Mar 12 22:08 |
Sosumi | complicated? | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | sure | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | some pretty bad stuff by the soundsof it | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | ,but don't realy understnad most of it | Mar 12 22:08 |
sebsebseb | the medical terms etc | Mar 12 22:09 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and one time she had apendicious andn earlydied, whist away apparnatly, you see why I am a bit worried etc | Mar 12 22:09 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 12 22:10 |
sebsebseb | and no it's not, just go find some other girl to get ot know all properly like that, it doesn't work that way | Mar 12 22:10 |
sebsebseb | really hard to find someone like what I found | Mar 12 22:10 |
Sosumi | wait then | Mar 12 22:11 |
Sosumi | a month or two | Mar 12 22:11 |
Sosumi | but then better move on | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no I mean got to find someone in person or online | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ,but | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | online uh that doesn't really work usaully | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | 99% of the time | Mar 12 22:11 |
Sosumi | I've no idea | Mar 12 22:11 |
Sosumi | since I don't "date" online | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | and in person I don't really know enough girls at the moment | Mar 12 22:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I don't mean a date neassirely | Mar 12 22:12 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I mean soeone to get to know, to build up a special freindship with at least | Mar 12 22:12 |
sebsebseb | oh and that happens to be a girl as well | Mar 12 22:12 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: if I want to chat to guys online, well that's easy enough heh heh | Mar 12 22:12 |
sebsebseb | and yeah I mean a girl that lives nearish to me idealy as well | Mar 12 22:13 |
Sosumi | be patient, that is all I can say | Mar 12 22:14 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I am going afk | Mar 12 22:14 |
Sosumi | yeah | Mar 12 22:14 |

msb__ | cubezzz: Nice blog! | Mar 12 22:41 |
cubezzz | thanks :) | Mar 12 22:42 |
msb__ | cubezzz: Are you a KDE3 fan? | Mar 12 22:42 |
cubezzz | yeah, pretty much | Mar 12 22:43 |
cubezzz | I use a variety of window managers | Mar 12 22:43 |
msb__ | Me too. | Mar 12 22:43 |
cubezzz | gnome2, icewm, mwm, a couple of KDE 3.X's, xfce | Mar 12 22:44 |
msb__ | I don't mess with the system much, just stay with KDE3.5 and some KDE4 apps. | Mar 12 22:44 |
msb__ | But I've written a lot of bash scripts. | Mar 12 22:45 |

msb__ | Looks like old sunview or xeroxparc. | Mar 12 22:47 |
msb__ | No taskbar or desktop switcher? | Mar 12 22:47 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/sunview-desktop.png | Mar 12 22:47 |
cubezzz | :) | Mar 12 22:47 |
cubezzz | iconbox is a sort of taskbar | Mar 12 22:48 |
msb__ | ok, different style 8^) | Mar 12 22:48 |
cubezzz | that tiny font on sunview would drive me nuts | Mar 12 22:48 |
cubezzz | I can run KDE 3.5 and mwm at the same time | Mar 12 22:49 |
msb__ | I've taken to using the KDE4 magnifier app sometimes. | Mar 12 22:49 |
cubezzz | I'm a fairly good motif programmer :) | Mar 12 22:49 |
cubezzz | KDE4 was just too slow on my old computers | Mar 12 22:50 |
cubezzz | I use reading glasses but I hate using glasses when I'm on a computer | Mar 12 22:51 |
cubezzz | I'd rather just make the font bigger | Mar 12 22:51 |
msb__ | I don't like KDE4's whole style, and you can't read the desktop names in the desktop switcher ("pager") so I dumped it. | Mar 12 22:51 |
msb__ | Multiple desktops are vital to me. | Mar 12 22:52 |
cubezzz | you can run more than one window manager remember | Mar 12 22:52 |
msb__ | Why would I need more than KDE3? | Mar 12 22:53 |
cubezzz | xinit mwm -- :8 | Mar 12 22:53 |
cubezzz | well, I wanted to experiment and improve my X window system knowledge | Mar 12 22:54 |
cubezzz | plus mwm is motif based so... a chance to learn more about motif | Mar 12 22:54 |
MinceR | a chance to learn why nobody uses motif anymore :> | Mar 12 22:55 |
cubezzz | I use it :) | Mar 12 22:55 |
MinceR | "bro, do you even ewmh?" | Mar 12 22:55 |
msb__ | Sounds nasty. | Mar 12 22:55 |
cubezzz | I did say I run KDE3.5 as well :) | Mar 12 22:56 |
MinceR | i use mwm at work, i'm not a big fan of it :> | Mar 12 22:56 |
MinceR | of course, it still beats windows | Mar 12 22:56 |
MinceR | and macos | Mar 12 22:56 |
msb__ | One thing I want to learn is graphics programming in X. I have some starter code somewhere. | Mar 12 22:56 |
cubezzz | I feel I can understand mwm source better than KDE3.5 source | Mar 12 22:57 |
MinceR | i haven't looked at mwm source yet | Mar 12 22:58 |
MinceR | i've coded an application for kde3 once, though :> | Mar 12 22:58 |
msb__ | These days I only make the effort to understand stuff when I need to. It's a big world. I was pissed when transistors came along and replaced glowing warm vacuum tubes. | Mar 12 22:59 |
MinceR | i'm still curious | Mar 12 22:59 |
msb__ | And again when ICs replaced discretes so I couldn't trace inside them. | Mar 12 22:59 |
*DrPizza (~DrPizza@lunix.quiscalusmexicanus.org) has joined #techrights | Mar 12 23:00 | |
msb__ | I'm curious too, but I have limited time. | Mar 12 23:00 |
cubezzz | it's not like I run something truely ancient like xwm :) | Mar 12 23:00 |
msb__ | Mostly I want to figure out how to help restore a conscious culture like in the 1960s. | Mar 12 23:00 |
MinceR | i haven't even seen xwm | Mar 12 23:01 |
MinceR | when i started using X, twm was already what shipped with XFree86 by default | Mar 12 23:01 |
MinceR | (then again, XFree86 might never had xwm, for all i know) | Mar 12 23:02 |
cubezzz | when was that MinceR ? | Mar 12 23:02 |
MinceR | around 2000, i think | Mar 12 23:02 |
cubezzz | yeah xwm is pretty old | Mar 12 23:02 |
cubezzz | that's getting into the X11R2 era, around 1988 | Mar 12 23:03 |
cubezzz | pre-linux :) | Mar 12 23:04 |
MinceR | :) | Mar 12 23:04 |
cubezzz | so Ultrix, or ummm | Mar 12 23:05 |
cubezzz | 4.3BSD-Tahoe I suppose | Mar 12 23:05 |
msb__ | My favorite bash script is called "p". If you do p filename while in the directory containing a file, it loads the FQ pathname of the file into the mouse clipboard. | Mar 12 23:07 |
msb__ | Text mode drag n drop! | Mar 12 23:07 |
cubezzz | well you can just hilight in konsole -> klipper | Mar 12 23:08 |
msb__ | Copy or move any file from one xterm (konsole) to another. And with mc in the console, you don't even have to type the filename. | Mar 12 23:08 |
msb__ | cubezzz: Won't that just get the filename, not the path from root? | Mar 12 23:08 |
cubezzz | I can just hilight the whole path | Mar 12 23:09 |
msb__ | But then you have to display the whole path first? | Mar 12 23:09 |
cubezzz | /mnt/e/old-x11/X.V10R3/xwm/xwm.h | Mar 12 23:09 |
cubezzz | ta da :) | Mar 12 23:09 |
cubezzz | yes, locate xwm.h then hilight since I can't remember where it is | Mar 12 23:10 |
msb__ | So you run "locate" to do that. Can take a few seconds. | Mar 12 23:11 |
msb__ | And then you have to run the cursor from one end of that text to the other, to hilite it. | Mar 12 23:11 |
cubezzz | let's see your script | Mar 12 23:11 |
msb__ | I just have to type "p %s" and then alt-enter and enter | Mar 12 23:12 |
msb__ | in mc | Mar 12 23:12 |
msb__ | hold on for scripts | Mar 12 23:13 |
msb__ | http://pastebin.com/XmYyMqzE | Mar 12 23:18 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-pastebin.com | p and xsel - Pastebin.com | Mar 12 23:18 | |
msb__ | There used to be an xsel app that came with xfree86, but it's not in the present X. So I had to find another way to stuff the clipboard. | Mar 12 23:19 |
cubezzz | ah, I'd have to adjust that to use it | Mar 12 23:20 |
cubezzz | no libqt4 on that box | Mar 12 23:20 |
MinceR | there's a separate xsel package on debian | Mar 12 23:22 |
msb__ | I think I maintained the same command-line syntax in my xsel script as in the original xsel program, so if that debian one still works, it should replace mine with all its qdbus jazz. | Mar 12 23:24 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 12 23:25 |
MinceR | the distro you're using might have a separate xsel package as well | Mar 12 23:25 |
msb__ | Nope. First thing I checked. | Mar 12 23:25 |
msb__ | I also use an "xs" script, which is simply: xsel $* | Mar 12 23:27 |
*freedomrun (~freedomru@unaffiliated/freedomrun) has joined #techrights | Mar 12 23:28 | |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-gawker.com | Mummified Woman Dead for Six Years Reportedly Voted in 2010 [ http://ur1.ca/guf4n ] | Mar 13 07:51 | |
DaemonFC | I was wondering why the bank didn't foreclose on her house sooner. | Mar 13 07:52 |
DaemonFC | Apparently, she had about $54,000 in her bank account when she died, so they kept making her house payment out of that until the money ran out. | Mar 13 07:52 |
DaemonFC | Still doesn't explain why nobody found her body for 6 years. | Mar 13 07:54 |
DaemonFC | You'd think the neighbors would be complaining about an overgrown lawn, or that her employer might notice that she didn't show up for work. | Mar 13 07:54 |
DaemonFC | A neighbor was mowing her lawn and she was laid off from Chrysler in 2008. | Mar 13 07:56 |

schestowitz__ | That's not funny, it's evil. A false sense of security can be worse than no privacy at all. We know that the NSA has boxes in Google that Google uses to cooperate and we know that the NSA also made successful frontal assaults on users. Both mean that people have no privacy in Google, but the worse of the two is the U SAP AT RIOT ACT that demands Google cooperate and lie about it.

schestowitz__ | there's more bad attitude in the article. | Mar 13 10:54 |
schestowitz__ | Both [Jared and I] felt that who gets to decide what information is public is a pretty fundamental issue in a democracy, and our general view is that we don't want random people leaking large amounts of data. We don't want random people leaking large amounts of health records or tax records - I don't think that serves society.

schestowitz__ | because the information, once disclosed, is there forever and can be used against people. | Mar 13 10:54 |
schestowitz__ | That's really wrong and unless it's out of context it is a very evil twist on what whistle blowers and Wikileaks or Snowden in particular are doing.

schestowitz__ | lol | Mar 13 17:42 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz__: Well, it appeals to them because you do tend to keep weight off when you smoke, but it's not worth the trade. | Mar 13 17:42 |
schestowitz__ | eventually all the flesh is gone | Mar 13 17:42 |
DaemonFC | So you're 10 pounds lighter and you're destroying your body with cigarettes. | Mar 13 17:42 |
schestowitz__ | and you're just calcium | Mar 13 17:42 |
DaemonFC | Much worse to smoke than to be 10 pounds heavier. | Mar 13 17:43 |

MinceR | i don't know | Mar 13 17:57 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz__: Yeah, my first job was a union job. | Mar 13 17:57 |
MinceR | from what i see, the country is still a wretched hive of m$ cultism | Mar 13 17:57 |
DaemonFC | They got us decent pay and good health insurance. Short and Long Term Disability insurance. Good dental insurance. | Mar 13 17:57 |
MinceR | people clinging to their unusable crap with 10 fingers | Mar 13 17:58 |
DaemonFC | The union had what was basically a backdoor dues system. | Mar 13 17:58 |
MinceR | they seem to love their crappy vista7 and their craptastic exchange and outlook | Mar 13 17:58 |
DaemonFC | They had a "pension plan" where the company would contribute like 50 cents per hour worked, but you had to work there 7 years or else you didn't qualify to get any of your pension back. | Mar 13 17:58 |
MinceR | the government are a bunch of crApple cultists | Mar 13 17:59 |
DaemonFC | So the union just made off with all the pension money I earned during the two years I was there. | Mar 13 17:59 |
cubezzz | some Hungarian teachers made SuliX and also Frugalware is Hugarian | Mar 13 17:59 |
MinceR | yeah, there's a bit of resistance | Mar 13 17:59 |
MinceR | on the other hand, mobile and Android are taking over here too, it seems | Mar 13 18:00 |
MinceR | so maybe m$ will end up losing due to the PC being marginalized here as well | Mar 13 18:01 |
cubezzz | things are changing, as they always do | Mar 13 18:01 |
cubezzz | you mentioned you used mwm at work, what OS is that running on? | Mar 13 18:03 |
MinceR | a fork of SLED | Mar 13 18:03 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-@terminsane: @schestowitz yeh, its part of the NAU deal. Canadian politicians are being bought by US govt to give up canadian sovereignty | Mar 13 18:04 | |
MinceR | well, if it deserves to be called a fork | Mar 13 18:04 |
cubezzz | I wonder why they picked mwm | Mar 13 18:14 |
MinceR | probably because that system is ancient and mwm was modern when they started developing it :> | Mar 13 18:17 |
Sosumi | canada is part of the commonwealth | Mar 13 18:18 |
MinceR | i wonder if the monarch abuses her privileges there like in the uk | Mar 13 18:18 |
Sosumi | for that to happen, the british crown would have to give up sovereignty on canada | Mar 13 18:18 |
cubezzz | MinceR, I found that mwm does run faster than KDE 3.5 | Mar 13 18:18 |
MinceR | i'm pretty sure canadians could declare independence if they wanted to | Mar 13 18:18 |
cubezzz | uses less memory too | Mar 13 18:19 |
MinceR | fvwm uses even less memory, afaik :> | Mar 13 18:20 |
cubezzz | lol, I remember one guy who wouldn't even run X | Mar 13 18:20 |

DaemonFC | J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says: | Mar 13 18:24 |
DaemonFC | Unlike Laz, I am fair and impartial. When a company has been behaving badly, I don't try to sweep it all under the rug. | Mar 13 18:24 |
DaemonFC | In this case, it's a Samsung specific issue. If anyone can prove that my LG G2 has been similarly booby trapped, then I'll gladly eat some humble pie. | Mar 13 18:24 |
DaemonFC | The most disturbing part of this is that Samsung devices are all Google certified, so either Google knew of this backdoor in the proprietary libsamsung-ipc, and approved it anyway, or they overlooked it during the certification process. | Mar 13 18:24 |
DaemonFC | The problem with Android is that the version you get on actual devices always relies on some proprietary software. The thing that makes Apple worse is that iOS is almost completely proprietary and it is certainly not possible for anyone to ever release a corrected version of it without the spyware and backdoors. | Mar 13 18:24 |
DaemonFC | The beauty of Freedom respecting software is that if someone makes a version that does something nasty, someone else can come along and fix it, and that's exactly what Replicant's developers did in this case. They saw what libsamsung-ipc did, and replaced it with a fully Free library that stands in for it without the booby trap that Samsung put in theirs. | Mar 13 18:24 |
DaemonFC | On the whole, Android is a better choice than iOS, even if it has some of the same problems as iOS, because nobody can ever fix iOS and offer iPhone or iPad users a choice. The best that anyone can do with iOS is crack it, replace part of the OS, and open up the possibility of additional software sources, after voiding the warranty. | Mar 13 18:24 |
cubezzz | dude, it's like you're blogging _in_ IRC | Mar 13 18:24 |
DaemonFC | yeah :) | Mar 13 18:24 |
MinceR | i doubt google audits stuff like this for their certification | Mar 13 18:25 |
cubezzz | did mwm ever have a program to access the clipboard? | Mar 13 18:28 |

MinceR | schestowitz__: it has pathetic roads | Mar 13 20:43 |
Sosumi | DaemonFC, a jetpack would do the trick in there | Mar 13 20:43 |
MinceR | not enough lanes, extremely low quality, stupid signage | Mar 13 20:43 |
MinceR | in budapest, they made sure there was not enough space left for roads, even | Mar 13 20:44 |
Sosumi | we don't have that kind of problem here | Mar 13 20:45 |
Sosumi | only some small interneraries serving remote places are like that, | Mar 13 20:46 |
Sosumi | to the point if there is car coming on the oposite direction | Mar 13 20:46 |
Sosumi | you need to get out of the road | Mar 13 20:46 |
DaemonFC | I try to minimize the amount of time I drive. | Mar 13 20:54 |
DaemonFC | With gas being what it is, I tend to combine trips as much as possible. | Mar 13 20:54 |
DaemonFC | Like, I'll do laundry and grocery shopping on the day that I have to go to the doctor's office. | Mar 13 20:55 |
DaemonFC | That way I'm not running around, burning another gallon of gas to do the same stuff on different trips. | Mar 13 20:56 |
DaemonFC | When my car was made, gas was $1.10 a gallon on a bad day. | Mar 13 20:56 |

sebsebseb_ | schestowitz__: HI | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: DaemonFC Sosumi this Saturday | Mar 13 21:21 |
sebsebseb_ | I got the oppertunity to uhmm | Mar 13 21:22 |
sebsebseb_ | promote openSUSE with KDE to teh general public hmm | Mar 13 21:22 |
MinceR | ew | Mar 13 21:22 |
sebsebseb_ | or | Mar 13 21:22 |
sebsebseb_ | Ubuntu with UNity | Mar 13 21:22 |
sebsebseb_ | or | Mar 13 21:22 |
sebsebseb_ | Mint with Cinnamon | Mar 13 21:22 |
sebsebseb_ | I think they pruposuly out voted Magiea and GNOME 3 in November, thinking I would just say it's better than the other stuff etc | Mar 13 21:23 |
Sosumi | mint with cinnamon for the lesser evil | Mar 13 21:23 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yeah or Ubuntu with UNity ? | Mar 13 21:23 |
Sosumi | hasn't Markie Shutleworm kind of fallen out of favor? | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | well yes and no | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but htis event is aimed at general public | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | not that technical people | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | the idea is they pick an interface rather htan a distro | Mar 13 21:24 |
sebsebseb_ | or mainly pick something by interface | Mar 13 21:24 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 13 21:24 |
Sosumi | then it is a tie between mint and ubuntu | Mar 13 21:25 |
sebsebseb_ | they will have the same kind of plymouth theme | Mar 13 21:25 |
sebsebseb_ | and same kind of addiontal apps mainly | Mar 13 21:25 |
sebsebseb_ | codecs etc | Mar 13 21:25 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yeah openSUSE pft | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | plenty of other distros that do KDE good | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | oh and Yast that aparnatly is so good uhmmm, there's that nice control centre in Magiea and such | Mar 13 21:26 |
Sosumi | DaemonFC, I've been using public transportation as of late, | Mar 13 21:26 |
MinceR | yeah, yast is so good | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: yeah that's sarcasm? | Mar 13 21:26 |
MinceR | for example, when i start yast from the icewm menu, it asks for the password and then does nothing | Mar 13 21:26 |
sebsebseb_ | like saying oh, Yast is so amazing? when it's not? | Mar 13 21:26 |
MinceR | and when i start it from rxvt-native, the whole screen falls apart | Mar 13 21:27 |
Sosumi | with my current schedule, there is no point and I get to my destination way faster without the need to find a parking spot | Mar 13 21:27 |
MinceR | afaict it's rather ill-behaved | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | well at least the video that's going to be used for the event | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | makes it nice and clear in the open suse review | Mar 13 21:27 |
MinceR | then again, that's what i generally find with Microsoft Linux, SuSE Edition | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | that it's more for power users | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | that should put some peope off I guess :D | Mar 13 21:27 |
sebsebseb_ | and KDE is all gekey etc | Mar 13 21:28 |
sebsebseb_ | anyway seems I am heping in the demo area :) | Mar 13 21:28 |
sebsebseb_ | where they get to play around with the three distros | Mar 13 21:28 |
Sosumi | KDE is cool, could be a lot better | Mar 13 21:28 |
sebsebseb_ | means I can talk to people to then :D about stuff | Mar 13 21:28 |
MinceR | kde is not geeky | Mar 13 21:28 |
Sosumi | but still kewl | Mar 13 21:28 |
Sosumi | also nothing geeky about it | Mar 13 21:28 |
DaemonFC | The last time I used Yast, it crashed a lot, it was still using Qt3, which had been abandoned for 4 years upstream at that point, it was very slow updating the software list, it had conflicts between several repositories that OpenSUSE recommended, and the extension to deal with orphans was broken and could not be installed. | Mar 13 21:28 |
sebsebseb_ | video first, demo area next, and then re mastered usb they get given else where and get to try on own machine if bought along | Mar 13 21:28 |
Sosumi | want to go geeky? just use the terminal | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: MinceR KDE looks like WIndows,but hten is realy geeky once trying to customise and such in my experience | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | get in a mess to moving icons around and such | Mar 13 21:29 |
MinceR | i mean kde seems to be aimed at non-geeky users, with lots of eye candy and little flexibility | Mar 13 21:29 |
MinceR | since 4.x | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: I am not sure about that | Mar 13 21:29 |
MinceR | sure, it's not gnome3 :> | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but I Think what I just put still applys | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | once you start doing something more than just the basics | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | with KDE | Mar 13 21:29 |
sebsebseb_ | get in a mess | Mar 13 21:30 |
sebsebseb_ | that's why I put the background changer slide show on and that's about as far as I go when it comes to "trying" to cusotmise KDE | Mar 13 21:30 |
sebsebseb_ | ,becuase I Have had it before, the icons being moved arounda ll over on the panel and not being able to put back, and the buncy ball enabled and not just being able to disable it and stuff like that | Mar 13 21:30 |
sebsebseb_ | Mageia is nice enough for KDE | Mar 13 21:31 |
sebsebseb_ | as are most distros really that run KDE, but yeah it's openSUSE with KDE | Mar 13 21:31 |
sebsebseb_ | for event | Mar 13 21:31 |
MinceR | stuff like that makes me value software that is configured via a text file :> | Mar 13 21:31 |
sebsebseb_ | stuff like what? | Mar 13 21:31 |
MinceR | like openbox and the lxde panel | Mar 13 21:32 |
MinceR | oh, wrong "stuff" | Mar 13 21:32 |
sebsebseb_ | I think i'll be in the demo area trying to sell Ubuntu or Mint :) | Mar 13 21:32 |
MinceR | stuff like KDE refusing to configure itself the way you want to | Mar 13 21:32 |
sebsebseb_ | someone else can do suse a bit | Mar 13 21:32 |
MinceR | or forgetting its settings :> | Mar 13 21:32 |
*sebsebseb_ appanratly is good at marketing stuff like this | Mar 13 21:33 | |
sebsebseb_ | I guess give peple osme perosnal opinons and such to | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | and then let them decide | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: Sosumi however what got me started chatting about all this again is uhmm | Mar 13 21:33 |
sebsebseb_ | there's this other gorup that I go to, I gave a few flyers out before, about event, but still many peope won't know about it | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | people who may find it useful | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | or well some of them anyway | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | I was going to email the mailing list on Monday about the event, but I wasnt' happy with what I came up with each time I Tried etc | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | to geeky | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | I am going to be talking about events and so on next Thursday there as well it seems. ,but I am just thinking shoud I bother emailing them or not to the list | Mar 13 21:34 |
sebsebseb_ | I Mean if I do that as wel, some may go to the event, and pick openSUSE uh | Mar 13 21:35 |
sebsebseb_ | as well | Mar 13 21:35 |
sebsebseb_ | openSUSE defiently has nice merchandice, but I woudn'treally recommend it as a distro to someone | Mar 13 21:35 |
MinceR | neither would i | Mar 13 21:35 |
sebsebseb_ | KDE can run in plenty of other distros and nicely | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | yast uhmmm well Magiea etc has the control centre so uhmm, who needs yast really?? | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | why woudn't you recommend openSUSE? | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | Mint has some settings type stuff to really | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | yast isn't needed | Mar 13 21:36 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: also to promote LInux to people from my other group, well it's a speaking group :d | Mar 13 21:37 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: so I don'treally ned them to come to an event such as this one on Saturday | Mar 13 21:37 |
sebsebseb_ | that's what I am thinking | Mar 13 21:37 |
sebsebseb_ | I can demo stuff on my netbook, an talk to people there about it, just genral talk, and sometimes in talks even | Mar 13 21:37 |
sebsebseb_ | and then there isn't just peopel going off to some distro I didn't really want them to as such I guess as well, well ok they still decide stuff, but I think you get what I Mean? | Mar 13 21:38 |
sebsebseb_ | if they go to event, they can pick up a remasterd USB, of Ubuntu, Mint, or openSUSE depending on what they choose | Mar 13 21:38 |
sebsebseb_ | I think main reason I am hmm to emailing there is since it will seem a bit off topic, and I'll just make myself look much more geeky maybe and yeah uh | Mar 13 21:39 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: comments? | Mar 13 21:40 |
MinceR | meh | Mar 13 21:41 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: looking like a geeek, to much,can seem bad | Mar 13 21:41 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: Sosumi Mint wel in for the event, since event is about live sessions | Mar 13 21:42 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but generally who needs Mint? | Mar 13 21:42 |
sebsebseb_ | can run CInnamon in other distros now quite a few :) plus there are other similar interfaces around and yeah | Mar 13 21:43 |
sebsebseb_ | I tried to get Mint out before sort of, and yeah | Mar 13 21:43 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: 38 Facebook likes the other day I Think | Mar 13 21:44 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: 54 when I lookd ealrier | Mar 13 21:44 |
sebsebseb_ | ok so one of htose is mine, one is the other organtier, and maybe another one or two as well | Mar 13 21:45 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but I guess it means 50 "other" people liked the event ot | Mar 13 21:45 |
sebsebseb_ | MinceR: and not sure how well the Google adveritsing is working or not | Mar 13 21:45 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but been coming up quite a lot apparnatly | Mar 13 21:45 |
sebsebseb_ | so I guess the event will get the 50 to 80 or so expected people then, and witout me advertising it on the mailing list to that other group? | Mar 13 21:46 |
Sosumi | just see if someone else gets opensusie | Mar 13 21:47 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: what do you mean? | Mar 13 21:47 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: see if these "other" peopel from else whre, go and choose opensuse or whatever they choose? | Mar 13 21:47 |
sebsebseb_ | is that what you mean? | Mar 13 21:47 |
Sosumi | yes | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yep exactly that's what I am thinking | Mar 13 21:48 |
Sosumi | so that you get either mint or ubuntu | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | uh? | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: from my other gorup I am thinking I may be able to convert some to Magiea later on :d | Mar 13 21:48 |
Sosumi | well, if that other ppl get ubuntu and/or mint | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | some time | Mar 13 21:48 |
Sosumi | all you'll be left is with opensusie | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: ,but if they go to event | Mar 13 21:48 |
sebsebseb_ | they may go to opensue or something maybe some of them I don't know | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: the three of htem will be togehter on the demo pc's | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: ,but if I mainly promote Ubuntu and Mint | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | then probably not that many will go with opensuse :D | Mar 13 21:49 |
sebsebseb_ | they will want a Mint and Ubuntu remaster or both :) | Mar 13 21:49 |
Sosumi | ok | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | and openSUSE will be like h | Mar 13 21:50 |
Sosumi | good then | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | eh | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | plus I think the video makes it seem that opensuse is for power users quite technical etc | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: yeah and the openSUSE guy uhmm | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | I am not htere to promtoe openSUSE that's my whole point | Mar 13 21:50 |
sebsebseb_ | I would have been there promoting Mageia properly and GNOME 3, but they out voted that so | Mar 13 21:51 |
sebsebseb_ | at lest that and Fedora is mentioned in hand out though | Mar 13 21:51 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: MinceR yeah FODEM this time went to no talks, spent two days promoting the newly releasedMageia 4 release to people instead at the stand | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | and now this event that's coming up on Saturdya, it seems I am doing Ubuntu and Mint, whilst mentioning Mageia a bit I guess as well | Mar 13 21:52 |
Sosumi | good | Mar 13 21:52 |
Sosumi | but I don't see the point in promoting gnome3 | Mar 13 21:52 |
sebsebseb_ | ,ut would have liked toh ave done Mgaeia properly, andGNOME 3, but htey out voted that so | Mar 13 21:53 |
sebsebseb_ | Sosumi: MinceR and also my point is, i people from my other gorup uhmmm may go to Magiea or something once I Talkd properly about that :) | Mar 13 21:53 |
sebsebseb_ | some of htem | Mar 13 21:53 |
sebsebseb_ | or might htink, oh that's interesitng, I want to know more | Mar 13 21:53 |
sebsebseb_ | ,but if htey go to event hten uhmm, they may go to opensuse or something | Mar 13 21:53 |
sebsebseb_ | depends | Mar 13 21:53 |

DaemonFC | Watching Star Trek: First Contact on Blu Ray. | Mar 14 00:19 |
DaemonFC | Mom was pissed at me because she dragged us all to some chick flick in 1996, and I snuck into the theater that was playing Star Trek: First Contact instead. She didn't realize I wasn't in their theater until their movie was over. | Mar 14 00:19 |
DaemonFC | A Star Trek movie with Captain Picard and the Borg most definitely beats the crap out of whatever it was we were there to see, I'm sure. | Mar 14 00:19 |
DaemonFC | I watched Gravity a few nights ago. That movie sucked. It was obviously meant for big screen 3d eye candy, except that I don't have a 3dtv, so I just got to watch Sandra Bullock get tossed around in space for two hours. Blagggh. At least George Clooney died. | Mar 14 00:19 |

_Goblin | lol...sanctions.... | Mar 14 17:02 |
_Goblin | what sanctions ? The UK is impotent and needs Russia far more. | Mar 14 17:02 |
MinceR | what does the uk need russia for? | Mar 14 17:03 |
_Goblin | Trade...how much investment by the Russians? Much I think... | Mar 14 17:03 |
_Goblin | also | Mar 14 17:03 |

_Goblin | and keep in mind, its very easy for the US to jump up and down, but what on Earth can they do? | Mar 14 17:03 |
_Goblin | The US wouldn't dare take on Russia...as it only goes after softer targets | Mar 14 17:04 |
_Goblin | the UK is a joke....and in anycase is what Russia doing any different from the US and UK in their pasts? | Mar 14 17:04 |
MinceR | dunno, maybe they and their allies could stop trading with russia, but then much of europe would need to find some other place to get gas from | Mar 14 17:05 |
_Goblin | The Premier league in the UK is owned by the Russians...sort of. | Mar 14 17:05 |
_Goblin | Russia holds all the cards in my opinion and I think its rather hypocritical that the UK / US would try to tackle them over something which we have been "guilty" of ourselves. | Mar 14 17:05 |
_Goblin | The UK is irrelevant in Europe and whilst is the lapdog of its bigger more powerful brother the US, the US won't dare stick their neck too far over the line.... | Mar 14 17:07 |
_Goblin | I think Syria was a good indicator of the "bottle" the US and UK have when it comes to Russia....none at all. | Mar 14 17:07 |
_Goblin | and rightfully so....Russia is doing exactly what the US/UK would have/have done. | Mar 14 17:08 |
_Goblin | I'm also done with western "morals" of government, where lives of Palastinian children don't seem to be worth as much as those of Israel.....Both our governments are a disgrace. | Mar 14 17:10 |

MinceR | _Goblin: just what and when? | Mar 14 19:43 |
_Goblin | If we look at here and now, they do it by proxy...and rather than extend borders they claim "liberation". | Mar 14 19:51 |
_Goblin | proxy example would be Israel. | Mar 14 19:51 |
_Goblin | however by "liberation" the designated place becomes extension of "liberating" government. | Mar 14 19:52 |
_Goblin | and what of the Falklands? | Mar 14 19:53 |
_Goblin | The power here is all about alliances, so in the case of Russia not only is there Russian might which frightens USA and UK, its the alliance with China. | Mar 14 19:54 |
_Goblin | Gibraltar....we don't give that back, do we? | Mar 14 19:54 |
_Goblin | and then by proxy give land away and extend our borders by a proxy (Israel) | Mar 14 19:55 |
_Goblin | but it doesnt matter because the plight of the Palestine won't be reported by Western media because of the allies in Israel. | Mar 14 19:56 |
_Goblin | I should quantify that comment though by saying that its no fault of the Israel people. This is government v government. | Mar 14 19:57 |
_Goblin | As is sadly the case around the world...its our governments bickering and acting appallingly....not the people. | Mar 14 19:57 |
MinceR | ic | Mar 14 20:00 |
MinceR | but those all happened a long time ago, didn't it? | Mar 14 20:01 |
MinceR | depending on whether what israel is doing now is by their own intent or usa's | Mar 14 20:01 |
_Goblin | And the west has its "no-no's" for people doing the same thing....because the west is the bastion of world morals and everyone else is comply with their vision of what is right and wrong. | Mar 14 20:02 |
_Goblin | Until it backfired, look at history of Russia (forgetting the actual cold war) | Mar 14 20:02 |
Sosumi | if the crimeans want to be part of the russia | Mar 14 20:02 |
MinceR | or because the Long Peace rests on them :> | Mar 14 20:02 |
Sosumi | what can the US do? | Mar 14 20:02 |
_Goblin | the US were so scared they assisted a certain group in afghanistan to fight the Russians. | Mar 14 20:02 |

_Goblin | it was all glory then, whilst the rebels fought on approval of the US...then it went a little sour when the "rebels" realized the exact price for being a proxy of the US | Mar 14 20:03 |
MinceR | is that rule 34 of rambo? | Mar 14 20:03 |
Sosumi | which had on its credits a dedication to the brave mujahadee aka alqaeda | Mar 14 20:03 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | :) | Mar 14 20:04 |
Sosumi | no idea, I just tend to find those movies boring and dumb | Mar 14 20:04 |
MinceR | at least those are proxy wars | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | They are very factual... | Mar 14 20:04 |
MinceR | the one in ukraine is a direct one | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | not in a realistic way of course | Mar 14 20:04 |
_Goblin | but Rambo et al, portray what it is the US wants people to believe and what they fear the most | Mar 14 20:05 |
Sosumi | the only factual movie that I could remember was Wag the Dog | Mar 14 20:05 |
_Goblin | and the same in the UK..... | Mar 14 20:05 |
_Goblin | its not a conspiracy, because in the case of films, the film makers pander to the current affairs and whats reported in the media..... | Mar 14 20:06 |
_Goblin | no better time to sell an "Invasion" movie, when Russia is out of favour with you. | Mar 14 20:06 |
Sosumi | propaganda I tell you | Mar 14 20:07 |
MinceR | also good time to sell weapons :> | Mar 14 20:07 |
Sosumi | indeed | Mar 14 20:07 |
_Goblin | Yes, but the movie industry isnt instructed to produce it, they are merely making money off the back of it | Mar 14 20:07 |
Sosumi | and ammo | Mar 14 20:07 |
MinceR | and UAVs | Mar 14 20:07 |
_Goblin | this all comes back to the US and China... | Mar 14 20:07 |
Sosumi | I though that the CIA had finger in holywood | Mar 14 20:08 |
Sosumi | *thought | Mar 14 20:08 |
_Goblin | they have in the media for a long time... | Mar 14 20:08 |
MinceR | they might | Mar 14 20:08 |
_Goblin | Area 51 for example. | Mar 14 20:08 |
MinceR | but some things might be explained without them :> | Mar 14 20:08 |
_Goblin | theres no aliens there though. | Mar 14 20:08 |
_Goblin | Area 51 was a propaganda tool created for the Chinese to believe the US had aliens in hangers that they could unleash if China's world ambitions included the US | Mar 14 20:09 |
_Goblin | there never was an aliens, but the beauty of a government denial and a few sci fi movies was that the simple people believed more and more in a "conspiracy" and did the propaganda job for the government. | Mar 14 20:10 |
_Goblin | the more the government denied, the more people thought they were covering up....it was actually a very clever "conspiracy" | Mar 14 20:11 |
_Goblin | Notice of late the "Captain America" type movies getting released...this is not something the government has instructed but it is the film companies capitalizing on peoples patriotism and desire to see the "western morals" served on a poor populas who know no better.....a feel good movie about world domination if you wish.... | Mar 14 20:13 |
_Goblin | Its very similar to a Microsoft view of "Do it our way or not at all" | Mar 14 20:16 |
MinceR | the same could be said about russian foreign policy as well | Mar 14 20:17 |
_Goblin | Very true....but can you blame them? | Mar 14 20:22 |
_Goblin | a liberal superpower becomes the lapdog of others nations wyms. | Mar 14 20:22 |
_Goblin | theres no us and them....this is governments fighting governments....a few people in power. | Mar 14 20:23 |
_Goblin | for example, if you met a Russian in a bar, you wouldn't have an overwhelming desire to sanction them by refusing to serve or speak to them, if they were a decent bloke you'd have a chat and a drink.... | Mar 14 20:24 |
_Goblin | and its this ethos which you extend to all the nations in the world, you realize that its merely people in power having ego battles with each other. | Mar 14 20:24 |
_Goblin | they don't get their hands dirty in war, its all dinners, numbers of troops and battles.... like a game of Risk or Command and Conquer...with the winner getting the biggest ego and remembered in history | Mar 14 20:26 |
MinceR | well, you can't fault every single citizen for everything their government does anyway | Mar 14 20:26 |
_Goblin | completely agree. | Mar 14 20:26 |
_Goblin | as I say this is not about "people" its all about governments. | Mar 14 20:26 |

_Goblin | Hi Gordon... | Mar 14 21:11 |
_Goblin | not watching the Celtic match? | Mar 14 21:11 |
ThistleWeb | no | Mar 14 21:11 |
ThistleWeb | bugcast is about to start | Mar 14 21:11 |
_Goblin | ah... | Mar 14 21:11 |
Sosumi | Gordon Freeman? is that you? | Mar 14 21:12 |
ThistleWeb | the wee free men? | Mar 14 21:13 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 14 21:13 |
ThistleWeb | sorry, I find it hard to ignore openings for Discworld references | Mar 14 21:13 |
Sosumi | that was a half life reference | Mar 14 21:14 |
ThistleWeb | oh, never played it | Mar 14 21:14 |
Sosumi | neither did I | Mar 14 21:15 |
Sosumi | but the series have quite leached out a couple of popular memes | Mar 14 21:15 |
_Goblin | Sosumi....not Freeman, its Gordon Brown....ex-labour leader.... | Mar 14 21:17 |
Sosumi | strange | Mar 14 21:17 |
Sosumi | I thought Gordon Brown was a pole dancer | Mar 14 21:17 |
_Goblin | He only does that on weekends | Mar 14 21:17 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 14 21:17 |
_Goblin | and sometimes a monday | Mar 14 21:18 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 14 21:18 |
_Goblin | and on webcam for 40p a minute | Mar 14 21:18 |
_Goblin | He's obviously with the bugcast now or he'd be making remarks now. | Mar 14 21:18 |
Sosumi | bugcast? | Mar 14 21:19 |
Sosumi | is it a slang for comcast? | Mar 14 21:19 |
_Goblin | I assume he is referring to this podcast http://thebugcast.org/tag/linux-outlaws/ | Mar 14 21:19 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-thebugcast.org | Linux Outlaws - The Bugcast | Mar 14 21:19 | |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 14 21:20 |
_Goblin | I assume....don't have much time for pod/audio casts these days | Mar 14 21:20 |
_Goblin | I occasionally tune into Roy's - I liked his RMS stuff | Mar 14 21:21 |
ThistleWeb | thebugcast.org | Mar 14 21:21 |
ThistleWeb | it's live streaming now | Mar 14 21:21 |
Sosumi | usually, talkradio puts me to sleep | Mar 14 21:22 |
_Goblin | I'm very much into my talk radio (Talksport and LBC) | Mar 14 21:22 |
Sosumi | unless it is something really interesting and new | Mar 14 21:22 |
ThistleWeb | it's 8 creative commons music tunes from a variety of styles, with a lil bit of chat between every two | Mar 14 21:23 |
MinceR | 220041 < DaemonFC> Oh no. Who knew that unlicensed copying of copyrighted materials could bring down an entire Boeing Dreamliner. | Mar 14 21:24 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.gdargaud.net | Computer Quotes [ http://ur1.ca/gurnv ] | Mar 14 21:45 | |
_Goblin | Does anyone know whatever happened to Brandon Lozza? - I know I've been away from this group for a while but I'd love to know.... a quick google brings up his stuff that I already know.... Did he ever find his underground neanderthals? Did he ever release his Linux distro? | Mar 14 21:57 |
Sosumi | "Blink your eyelids periodically to lubricate your eyes." — Page 16 of the HP "Environmental, Health Safety Handbook for Employees". | Mar 14 21:58 |
Sosumi | lawl | Mar 14 21:58 |
_Goblin | And maybe the most important question of all.... Did he ever get a job as a Brian Clough look a like? | Mar 14 21:59 |
_Goblin | Sosumi - Ah.... That's where Ive been going wrong all these years.....I just used to throw water into my face every minute or so. | Mar 14 21:59 |
Sosumi | water has contaminants (pipping) and residual products from treatment | Mar 14 22:01 |
Sosumi | hardly the ideal thing to trow at the eyes | Mar 14 22:01 |
_Goblin | I don't know...does wonders for the complexion | Mar 14 22:02 |
_Goblin | and I use Evian | Mar 14 22:02 |
Sosumi | no idea of what that is | Mar 14 22:02 |
Sosumi | but usually sodium chlorine is enough | Mar 14 22:03 |
Sosumi | to wash the eyes | Mar 14 22:03 |
_Goblin | Its bottled mineral water from some mountain or other. | Mar 14 22:03 |
_Goblin | Melted Ice from Europa....thats what I can use.... | Mar 14 22:04 |
Sosumi | ha ok | Mar 14 22:04 |
_Goblin | contains high levels of chlorine....but its filtered through the depths of deep space and matured at sub zero temperatures in orbit around Jupiter | Mar 14 22:05 |
_Goblin | Quote "Europa's surface temperature at the equator never rises above minus 260 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 160 degrees Celsius). At the poles of the moon, the temperature never rises above minus 370 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 220 degrees Celsius)." - Now hows that for pure and free of contaminents? | Mar 14 22:06 |
MinceR | doesn't say anything about it | Mar 14 22:07 |
MinceR | only temperature | Mar 14 22:07 |
_Goblin | You see much industry on Europa? | Mar 14 22:07 |
_Goblin | I know we have had a few conspiracy "people" in the past here......but even their theories don't stretch to industry on Europa....I hope. | Mar 14 22:08 |
_Goblin | And Europa is an excellent example of how to be environmentally friendly......if you don't have an environment in the first place, are many degrees below zero and orbit a massive gas giant whilst being bombarded by insterstella radiation, then you can't stuff up the environment. | Mar 14 22:10 |
_Goblin | fill your boots....burn all the fossels you want (if you can without oxygen) | Mar 14 22:10 |
_Goblin | suck the planet dry...nobody will notice. | Mar 14 22:10 |
_Goblin | Talking of conspiracy folk....if you google "David Icke" my G+ posting on him is the 5th result down...... | Mar 14 22:15 |
cubezzz | ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS EXCEPT EUROPA :) | Mar 14 22:16 |
_Goblin | And Uranus....you can have that one too | Mar 14 22:17 |

msb_ | "<Sosumi> the big iron desktop is already dead" -- Nonsense! The very article that Sosumi links to shows desktop sales declining very slowly by about 14% from 2012 to 2018. Desktops can have highspeed processors and have several large HDDs to have lots of data instantly available, for about $1200. Laptops add portability but lack the large data storage and some of the speed, for about the same price. Tablets store little data and | Mar 09 13:32 |
msb_ | have a tiny screen -- useless for watching movies -- and an inefficient "keyboard". Easy portability is their only advantage. They have entirely different uses from desktops and laptops. The only reason tablets are outselling the others is their low price. | Mar 09 13:32 |
msb_ | None of this has anything to do with Microshit, which will hopefully gradually die. | Mar 09 13:34 |
Sosumi | ppl use tvs to watch movies | Mar 09 13:36 |
Sosumi | many from what I've seen have already relegated all their computing to tablets | Mar 09 13:36 |
msb_ | Desktops and laptops can serve as a wonderful extension of the human mind, if configured correctly. Any song, any movie, any piece of information important to a person, can be instantly recalled. | Mar 09 13:36 |
Sosumi | the only desktop market that still stays afloat is the gaming pc | Mar 09 13:36 |
msb_ | Most people don't think, have never learned how, and have in fact been taught not to think. Any that drink fluoridated water, take antacids containing aluminum, or get vaccines containing mercury, have been brain-damaged. All of these have little intellectual life. They may be satisfied with a tablet, and watching movies from DVDs using a TV. | Mar 09 13:40 |
msb_ | They are "sheeple". But it's people who *do* think who make a difference, who advance human knowledge and society, and create a World Community, and (hopefully) save us from the current domination by fascist psychopaths. | Mar 09 13:43 |

Sosumi | because once you know how the mind works | Mar 09 15:31 |
Sosumi | you'll no longer fall for the entrapments of propaganda | Mar 09 15:31 |
msb_ | Sosumi: 1. I don't "do drugs". 2. I know that people create a model of reality in their minds, which is not necessarily accurate. It can only be made more accurate by critical thinking -- access all available sources of information, and compare them with one another and with your own internal model using the law of non-contradiction. | Mar 09 15:33 |
msb_ | Sosumi: Then update your internal model. If you don't realize that your beliefs are your own model of reality, and that you must use critical thinking to correct it, then you have no hope of knowing what's actually going on in the world. Psychology and neurophysiology don't help that much. | Mar 09 15:35 |
msb_ | Sosumi: You must hold your own mind as an object of examination. That is the key. Self-observation, as explained by Gurdjieff and Ouspensky. Without it you remain asleep. | Mar 09 15:36 |

abeNd-org | Sosumi despite your perfect html5 world, some stuff still uses flash on the internet, especially when it comes to end user applications | Mar 10 16:47 |
Sosumi | like flash games? | Mar 10 16:48 |
Sosumi | real end user applications of the sort of important "stuff" | Mar 10 16:49 |
Sosumi | are done in java | Mar 10 16:49 |
Sosumi | flash in itself, could and should just die | Mar 10 16:49 |
Sosumi | *on | Mar 10 16:49 |
abeNd-org | radio station in this particular case, & yes mgmt allows it, so yes, it is supported by IT per mgmt, so no, this wouldnt fit into your perfect html5 utopia that doesnt exist | Mar 10 16:53 |
MinceR | 205215 < DaemonFC> Even on Windows, I do not believe that malware can infest a video file, unless the format is WMV. | Mar 10 16:53 |
abeNd-org | flash should die, but it isnt, & hasnt | Mar 10 16:53 |
MinceR | i suppose a buffer overflow or similar vulnerability could lead to execution of arbitrary code :> | Mar 10 16:53 |
abeNd-org | os2 should die, but there is still plenty of it out there, sco openserver should die, but there is still plenty of it out there | Mar 10 16:53 |
Sosumi | funnily how you immediately declared ti has my html5 utopia | Mar 10 16:54 |
MinceR | how could there be a "perfect html5 world" as long as a drm apologist heads the w3c in cahoots with msft and the MAFIAA? | Mar 10 16:54 |
Sosumi | when in fact html5 has been infected with drm a while ago | Mar 10 16:54 |
Sosumi | so, far from being utopic | Mar 10 16:55 |
abeNd-org | i call it as the way you speak there is nothing in the universe using flash | Mar 10 16:57 |
MinceR | sites should just link to reasonably open video files and let a real video player handle them :> | Mar 10 16:57 |
MinceR | (not Real Video, that's crap) | Mar 10 16:57 |
Sosumi | never intended to make it sound that way | Mar 10 16:58 |
Sosumi | like there is "nothing using flash" | Mar 10 16:58 |
Sosumi | plus, flash is deprecated on gnu/linux and it is a broken glass jar poorly fixed with duct tape and camel spit | Mar 10 16:59 |
abeNd-org | so tough cookies, flash still exists, stop whining & fix the issues instead of crying a river. google's sponsored ads on searches being one of the problems | Mar 10 16:59 |
Sosumi | so obviously that I'm all for replacing it | Mar 10 16:59 |
abeNd-org | yeah, well, it still exists, so again, touch cookies | Mar 10 16:59 |
abeNd-org | tough | Mar 10 17:00 |
abeNd-org | should it? no, does it? yes | Mar 10 17:00 |
MinceR | getting rid of flash is the way to fix the issue. | Mar 10 17:01 |
abeNd-org | ok, so where is a usable replacement, & why is it that places like radio station websites arent using it yet? | Mar 10 17:01 |
MinceR | there were usable replacements ever since video player applications could stream over http | Mar 10 17:03 |
MinceR | websites aren't using them because people are stupid. | Mar 10 17:03 |
Sosumi | I have no idea of what radio stations you're talking about | Mar 10 17:03 |
Sosumi | but the one I know provide a file that can be opened through vlc | Mar 10 17:04 |
Sosumi | or even itunes | Mar 10 17:04 |
Sosumi | for streaming | Mar 10 17:04 |
Sosumi | much better | Mar 10 17:04 |
Sosumi | and it works with mobile devices | Mar 10 17:04 |
Sosumi | since flash is dead on android too | Mar 10 17:04 |
MinceR | (and most likely even an "html5" video element could be used in such a way) | Mar 10 17:05 |
abeNd-org | sure, people in this channel could configure vlc for streaming, but most "humans" wouldnt know what vlc is, much less how to get it going for streaming | Mar 10 17:05 |
MinceR | you underestimate the popularity of vlc :> | Mar 10 17:05 |
Sosumi | that is why those humans deserve all the bag of hurt they get by installing flash | Mar 10 17:05 |
MinceR | also, regardless of your enthusiasm for flash, the fact is adobe is killing support for it. | Mar 10 17:06 |
Sosumi | hopefully, they'll apreciate to know better next time | Mar 10 17:06 |
abeNd-org | & you underestimate the corporate world | Mar 10 17:06 |
abeNd-org | "(4:00:16 PM) abeNd-org: should it? no, does it? yes" - pretty sure i wouldnt call that enthusiasm.... | Mar 10 17:06 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Real doesn't have their own codecs anymore. | Mar 10 17:07 |
abeNd-org | sure, replacing it with adobe air | Mar 10 17:07 |
DaemonFC | Just a container format that hosts MPEG-4. | Mar 10 17:07 |
MinceR | they killed adobe air earlier | Mar 10 17:07 |

msb_ | I never programmed that IBM 1401, but I did spend a couple years on this LINC computer: http://www.digibarn.com/collections/systems/linc/ | Mar 11 00:33 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.digibarn.com | Digibarn Systems: The LINC - Laboratory INstrument Computer [ http://ur1.ca/gtbmh ] | Mar 11 00:33 | |
msb_ | Click on the photos to expand them. It had silver toggle switches to load address and data. You could simply run your finger down them to set them all to 0 or 1. It had lighted pushbuttons! | Mar 11 00:35 |
msb_ | The display was a 5" oscilloscope. I programmed a binocular stero display on it with one of the analog knobs adjusting separation of the two pictures to match the viewer's interocular distance. | Mar 11 00:36 |
cubezzz | that was by DEC was it not? | Mar 11 00:36 |
msb_ | The keyboard crapped out and I helped make a new one out of a teletype and diode logic, to use until the replacement came. | Mar 11 00:37 |
msb_ | Yes, DEC. | Mar 11 00:37 |
msb_ | It was designed to be programmable by scientists for use in laboratory automation and data processing/visualization. | Mar 11 00:38 |
msb_ | I wrote a program that used an area of memory to hold instructions created by a random number generator. They could modify themselves, but the HALT instruction was not executed. The display instruction had the X value in an index register and the Y value in the accumulator. The random-execution program made displays that looked like EEG patterns! | Mar 11 00:42 |
msb_ | The Ghost in the Machine! | Mar 11 00:42 |
cubezzz | so it's a rasterized display? | Mar 11 00:42 |
cubezzz | if so, it's one of the earliest ones | Mar 11 00:42 |
msb_ | Nope -- one dot at a time. | Mar 11 00:42 |
msb_ | But the screen was fairly long persistence, and if there were 1000 dots or less it didn't flicker much. | Mar 11 00:43 |
msb_ | I built a light-pen for it, so you could draw pictures and store them on the little magtapes. Even make movies, sort of. | Mar 11 00:44 |
msb_ | Originally it had 1K of 12-bit core, then they added a second K. | Mar 11 00:45 |
cubezzz | that's tiny | Mar 11 00:45 |
msb_ | But it didn't have to support a GUI. Just ran one program at a time, which you wrote in assembly language. | Mar 11 00:46 |
cubezzz | I guess that would be assembly language only then? | Mar 11 00:46 |
cubezzz | ah I see | Mar 11 00:46 |
msb_ | But it was a very easy and efficient assembly language. BASIC came later, on the PDP-8, | Mar 11 00:47 |
msb_ | The instructions were designed for programming by general scientists and lab techs, not computer specialists. | Mar 11 00:48 |
cubezzz | interesting | Mar 11 00:48 |
cubezzz | I've dabbled with early DEC computers a bit, but not the LINC | Mar 11 00:49 |
msb_ | It came with an editor/assembler program, more or less curses-like. You could insert lines. | Mar 11 00:49 |
msb_ | The LINC was the most beautiful of all. | Mar 11 00:49 |
cubezzz | did you ever work on a PDP-4? | Mar 11 00:50 |
cubezzz | that's about the same era | Mar 11 00:50 |
msb_ | It had analog input knobs, A/D and D/A convertors, and a plugin frame that could hold custom circuitry you'd build on perf boards. | Mar 11 00:50 |
msb_ | No. | Mar 11 00:50 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/pdp-4-trackball.png | Mar 11 00:50 |
msb_ | LINC, PDP-8, LINC-8, PDP-12, PDP-6, PDP-10. | Mar 11 00:51 |
cubezzz | I've worked on PDP-10 | Mar 11 00:51 |
msb_ | Wow, huge screen! | Mar 11 00:52 |
cubezzz | DEC 340 display :) | Mar 11 00:52 |
cubezzz | well before my time, but interesting | Mar 11 00:52 |
msb_ | I've used a $30 Logitech trackball for years. would never go back to a mouse. | Mar 11 00:52 |
msb_ | We might have had one of those displays on the PDP-12. At least it was big and round. Still dot by dot. | Mar 11 00:53 |
cubezzz | vector 1024x1204 if I remember correctly | Mar 11 00:54 |

msb_ | I think ours was dots, not vectors, but I'm not sure now. | Mar 11 00:55 |
msb_ | In any case you had to be very careful in programming it not to burn a hole in the phosphor by repeatedly displaying a dot in one place. | Mar 11 00:56 |
msb_ | Always kept a finger on the STOP switch until you knew there were no bugs that would do that. | Mar 11 00:56 |
msb_ | During the Vietnam War, some big bosses came through and I displayed a peace symbol on the LINC screen that I had secretly prepared. | Mar 11 00:59 |
msb_ | No flicker, medium-persistence green phosphor, about the same color used in The Matrix. | Mar 11 01:00 |
cubezzz | reminds me a bit of Commodore PET | Mar 11 01:01 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/superpet-apl2.png | Mar 11 01:01 |
cubezzz | the PET had 8x8 characters though, so a bit more resolution than 4x6 :) | Mar 11 01:03 |
cubezzz | wikipedia says white or yellow phosphor, but those pics showed green | Mar 11 01:05 |
msb_ | The 5 inch LINC display was definitely green. I don't remember the color of the large round PDP-12 display. | Mar 11 01:07 |
msb_ | The PDP-12 had both LINC and PDP-8 instruction sets, and could switch between them. | Mar 11 01:07 |
msb_ | It had a 5MB removable hard drive, that would scratch the head on the edge of the platter every time the cartridge was loaded. But DEC denied it. | Mar 11 01:09 |
cubezzz | RK05? | Mar 11 01:10 |
msb_ | Could be. It was a single platter cartridge. | Mar 11 01:10 |
msb_ | A Data General Eclipse computer I worked on had a 200MB HDD the size of a small coffin. I fixed it using only a triggered-delay oscilloscope. | Mar 11 01:12 |
cubezzz | what language(s) did you use on the PDP-10? | Mar 11 01:13 |
msb_ | Computing got to be real fun again when I got an IBM-PC with a color display. | Mar 11 01:14 |
msb_ | Assembly and Fortran. I was working on a machine to scan oscilloscope photographs into the computer. Scanned them with a CRT and lens, and picked up the reflection with a photomultiplier tube. | Mar 11 01:15 |
msb_ | The photos were of nanosecond phenomena, and the original signals were to fast to digitize. | Mar 11 01:16 |
msb_ | The thing actually worked, powered by a PDP-8 networked to the PDP-6 or 10, and was callable from Fortran. | Mar 11 01:17 |
msb_ | to fast --> too fast | Mar 11 01:18 |
msb_ | Light absorption in chlorophyll (spinach leaves) hit with a Q-switched ruby laser pulse. | Mar 11 01:19 |
msb_ | The measure light was a xenon flash lamp powered by a multiple pi-section delay line, where the inductors were tunable with ferrite cores, enabling the light pulse to be flattened. | Mar 11 01:20 |
msb_ | I was very proud of that measure light! | Mar 11 01:20 |
cubezzz | you had an interesting job :) | Mar 11 01:21 |
msb_ | A succession of them. | Mar 11 01:21 |
msb_ | Research labs were much better to work in than the software companies I was in after them. The scientists were rational. The software managers were not. | Mar 11 01:22 |
cubezzz | some work I did on tops-20: | Mar 11 01:23 |
cubezzz | http://apl.maxhost.org/apl-tops-20.txt | Mar 11 01:23 |
msb_ | Was/is that a successor to the PDP-10? | Mar 11 01:24 |
msb_ | Or an OS? | Mar 11 01:24 |
cubezzz | well tops-20 was the OS for DECSystem-20 | Mar 11 01:25 |
cubezzz | not sure if that was the successor to PDP-10 though | Mar 11 01:25 |
msb_ | I think I had migrated to DG Nova/Eclipse, and then to 6502 satellites of them, and then IBM-PCs. | Mar 11 01:26 |
cubezzz | I guess it's still a PDP-10 though | Mar 11 01:26 |
msb_ | I had an idea for each lab setup to have a little 6502 machine with 4K or so of RAM, that could take data at high speed, store it, and feed it to the Eclipse central computer over a serial line. | Mar 11 01:28 |
msb_ | It would have worked if they hadn't stopped me! No, actually we built one 6502 satellite (based on a cheap kit), and it did work. | Mar 11 01:29 |
cubezzz | I think some of the DECSystem-20's had 1024 kilowords of ram | Mar 11 01:31 |
msb_ | I got circuit ideas for it from, I think Don Lancaster's monthly column in Popular Electronics. | Mar 11 01:31 |
msb_ | A mighty megabyte! | Mar 11 01:31 |
msb_ | Except I guess they were 36-bit words. | Mar 11 01:32 |
cubezzz | yes, pretty hefty :) | Mar 11 01:32 |
cubezzz | plus it had ethernet which is nice | Mar 11 01:34 |
msb_ | Better than RS-232! | Mar 11 01:34 |
cubezzz | three-phase power, not something for the house | Mar 11 01:35 |
cubezzz | way too big | Mar 11 01:35 |
msb_ | Cables under the floor. | Mar 11 01:35 |
cubezzz | I think there's a lot of source code kicking around though, and there's a pretty good emulator for it | Mar 11 01:36 |
msb_ | Eventually a Pentium PC beat it all to hell. Such is the power of photolithography. | Mar 11 01:36 |
cubezzz | you be surprised now much old stuff is open source now | Mar 11 01:36 |
cubezzz | x86 doesn't rule everything | Mar 11 01:37 |
cubezzz | IBM still makes mainframes :) | Mar 11 01:37 |
msb_ | Yeah, but what do they have inside 'em? | Mar 11 01:37 |
msb_ | Might be lots of multi-core x86s. | Mar 11 01:38 |

msb_ | Didn't IBM contribute a billion dollars to improving Linux some years back? | Mar 11 01:41 |
cubezzz | some of the supercomputers are intel xeon though | Mar 11 01:42 |
cubezzz | ah, I think they did | Mar 11 01:42 |

cubezzz | there was the W Window System | Mar 11 01:50 |
msb_ | Doesn't ring any bells. I think it was on DEC... | Mar 11 01:51 |
cubezzz | not sure if that ran on DEC though | Mar 11 01:51 |
-->freedomrun (~freedomru@unaffiliated/freedomrun) has joined #techrights | Mar 11 01:51 | |
cubezzz | but it's the ancestor of X | Mar 11 01:51 |
msb_ | No, I think it was SunOS. | Mar 11 01:51 |
msb_ | Easier to deal with than X. Even I could understand it. | Mar 11 01:52 |
msb_ | X I just have to take on faith. | Mar 11 01:53 |
msb_ | Yes, I worked on Suns for a couple years. Pizza boxes and such. | Mar 11 01:54 |

cubezzz | xdm and all that stuff | Mar 11 01:55 |
msb_ | But didn't it have its own GUI before X? | Mar 11 01:55 |
cubezzz | maybe really early on there was, not positive about that | Mar 11 01:57 |
msb_ | "GUI environments bundled with earlier versions of SunOS included SunTools (later SunView)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunOS#User_interface | Mar 11 01:57 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | SunOS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia [ http://ur1.ca/gtc2j ] | Mar 11 01:57 | |
cubezzz | even SunView ran on top of X | Mar 11 01:57 |
cubezzz | so before that, maybe | Mar 11 01:57 |
msb_ | I think it was SunView. | Mar 11 01:57 |
cubezzz | remember, everyone got behind X around 1986 or so | Mar 11 01:58 |
cubezzz | so before 1986 it's quite possible that they used something else | Mar 11 01:58 |
msb_ | I wrote my own simple window system for PC-DOS in C. Put up overlapping windows with text in them. | Mar 11 01:58 |
msb_ | Never got around to graphics in the windows, though. | Mar 11 01:59 |
cubezzz | here's some history of X: | Mar 11 01:59 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/history-of-x.txt | Mar 11 01:59 |
cubezzz | Xerox had something before X | Mar 11 02:02 |
msb_ | Thanks! Time marches on. | Mar 11 02:02 |
msb_ | Everything must be improved, whether it needs to be or not. | Mar 11 02:02 |
cubezzz | yeah, I think X is important | Mar 11 02:02 |
cubezzz | device independent graphics | Mar 11 02:03 |
msb_ | Has that program come back that allows you to adjust X to your monitor, instead of relying on X's wrong automatic guesses? I forget what it was called. | Mar 11 02:04 |
msb_ | Also helped set up unusual input equipment like my trackball. | Mar 11 02:05 |
cubezzz | well redhat had there redhat-config-xfree86 program | Mar 11 02:06 |
msb_ | Last time I upgraded Linux I had to get lots of hints and guesses from Suse IRC folks to make a center button by pushing left and right together. | Mar 11 02:06 |
msb_ | Suse's had a different name. 8^) | Mar 11 02:07 |
cubezzz | in the somewhat olden days there was a package called XFree86-tools | Mar 11 02:07 |
cubezzz | so whatever was in that | Mar 11 02:07 |
msb_ | I always keep all the config files and libs from the previous Linux in case I have to graft them onto the new one. | Mar 11 02:08 |

cubezzz | it's better to understand the text files though | Mar 11 02:09 |
cubezzz | rather than rely on some gui thingamajig | Mar 11 02:10 |
msb_ | Well, yeah, I had to hack the X config files. | Mar 11 02:10 |
cubezzz | ok, now I remember what I used to do... | Mar 11 02:11 |
cubezzz | Xfree86 -configure | Mar 11 02:11 |
cubezzz | that barfs out a XF86Config text file :) | Mar 11 02:11 |

cubezzz | well the source is there, but it's hard to absorb all of it :) | Mar 11 02:12 |
cubezzz | learning everything about X is wading into deep water | Mar 11 02:13 |
cubezzz | a lot of the young uns don't understand X too well | Mar 11 02:13 |

msb_ | Then I worked at a Stanford physics lab, that's where I used the Suns. | Mar 11 02:24 |
cubezzz | yeah there was Stanford Lisp | Mar 11 02:25 |
cubezzz | then MACLISP | Mar 11 02:26 |
msb_ | Even some kind of Sun 386s, that ran Unix. They were kinda crashy. | Mar 11 02:26 |
cubezzz | and 4.3BSD had a lisp interpreter | Mar 11 02:26 |
cubezzz | I was never a fan though | Mar 11 02:26 |
msb_ | When I first found out about lisp I thought it was god's primordial language. But I never got into it, except the simplified version for programming the BRIEF editor. | Mar 11 02:27 |
cubezzz | and early Sun's did run W, I | Mar 11 02:27 |
cubezzz | I'm just reading up on that | Mar 11 02:27 |

msb_ | Yes! Give W multiple named desktops and a taskbar, and I'd be happy with it. | Mar 11 02:34 |
msb_ | And some apps, and a menu, and firefox, and... well, KDE3! | Mar 11 02:36 |
msb_ | Also mc -- I'd be lost without it. | Mar 11 02:36 |
msb_ | Have more than 50 copies running. Don't know why half of them don't show up in ps. | Mar 11 02:39 |
cubezzz | why so many? | Mar 11 02:39 |
msb_ | 20 desktops, 4-5 konsoles with mc in each. | Mar 11 02:40 |
msb_ | All together they don't use more than a couple percent of my old cpu, so I leave them up, set to the directories of interest in each desktop. | Mar 11 02:41 |
msb_ | I have an OS that could run 50 users out of this little PC. Might as well load it up with mind helpers for little old me. | Mar 11 02:42 |
msb_ | I remember when a PDP-11 timeshared for a whole university, or at least a college. And my old dual core AMD is faster. | Mar 11 02:45 |
msb_ | The human race will do great things, if we don't kill ourselves off. | Mar 11 02:45 |
msb_ | I just read where some particle accelerator is going to be improved for even higher energies, where it might make a strangelet that would convert the entire planet and everything on it into a ball of seething crap. | Mar 11 02:47 |
msb_ | Sane people would do that on a moon somewhere very far away. | Mar 11 02:48 |
msb_ | Or maybe they would never do it. | Mar 11 02:50 |
msb_ | I was thinking "another galaxy", but then it might ruin an entire galaxy. | Mar 11 02:50 |
msb_ | Well, maybe natural processes create energies far above what we can ever reach. I sure hope so. | Mar 11 02:51 |
cubezzz | yeah I don't think we can destroy galaxies :) | Mar 11 02:52 |
cubezzz | we can't even put a guy on Mars yet :) | Mar 11 02:52 |

cubezzz | one of the problems is konsole uses f2 to make another instance of konsole | Mar 11 03:04 |

DaemonFC | I remember two schemes by name that my grandparents got in on in the 90s. | Mar 11 11:48 |
DaemonFC | One was called Destiny Telecommunications. You got in by paying some money to be a "sales consultant" and sell phone cards to people. It turned out that the phone cards only had 20-30 minutes on them, even the ones that said they were good for several hours. The people running the scam did go to prison, as I recall, but the nature of those scams is that by the time the FBI busts them, there's almost never any money left, and the victims get back | Mar 11 11:48 |
DaemonFC | pennies on the dollar. | Mar 11 11:48 |
DaemonFC | The other one they got taken by was called "King's Vitamins", which was going around recruiting people at churches to sell their vitamins. | Mar 11 11:48 |
DaemonFC | My grandparents got in so deep with King's Vitamins that they fell behind on their payments on their Cadillac car and had a repo company come take it back. To save face, they insisted to everyone who asked where the Cadillac went that "the engine burned up". | Mar 11 11:48 |

DaemonFC | I posted this on Amazon in regard to Apple and Microsoft's patent trolling of Android: | Mar 11 15:57 |
DaemonFC | I just don't want to see Android and Firefox OS chased off the market by devices from Microsoft and Apple that really aren't all that good at all. | Mar 11 15:57 |
DaemonFC | Even the minimal improvements that Microsoft and Apple make between generations of phones would slow or stop if there was no Android challenging them, and moving the technology forward. | Mar 11 15:57 |
DaemonFC | It would be like that time where Internet Explorer 6 had 97% of the browser market, and Microsoft openly declared that it would be the last major version of Internet Explorer ever. They were just going to stop and leave people with Internet Explorer 6 forever with basically no improvements. | Mar 11 15:57 |
DaemonFC | They even backed up that announcement by firing 90% of the IE team. Then they sneered at Firefox and let it get about 10 years ahead of Internet Explorer before they did anything about it at all. | Mar 11 15:57 |
DaemonFC | This is what companies like Microsoft and Apple do when there's nobody moving the game forward. | Mar 11 15:57 |
<--DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Mar 11 16:01 | |
msb__ | Regarding: "<DaemonFC> People who are the victims of medical quackery like megadoses of herbs and vitamins who do not improve will tell other people that they did in order to save face." | Mar 11 16:22 |
msb__ | It's important to know that what is called "megadose" of Vitamin C really is not. | Mar 11 16:23 |
msb__ | The govt RDA of vit C is about 200mg, which is enough to prevent scurvy and some other severe deficiency diseases, but it is nowhere near the amount that we need. | Mar 11 16:24 |
msb__ | When we were living in trees we lost the last enzyme in the chain that makes ascorbic acid, because we were getting several grams/day from fruit. | Mar 11 16:25 |
cubezzz | msb_, I got something for you | Mar 11 16:26 |
cubezzz | computerworld from 1972 | Mar 11 16:26 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/cw-1972-may-03.tar.gz | Mar 11 16:26 |
msb__ | Animals other than great apes (and maybe guinea pigs) make about 5 grams/day when healthy, and up to 70grams/day when they have a viral infection. | Mar 11 16:26 |
cubezzz | how much vitamin C should we per day? | Mar 11 16:28 |
cubezzz | should we take | Mar 11 16:29 |
msb__ | 3 metric tons | Mar 11 16:29 |
msb__ | No, actually about 5 grams/day. | Mar 11 16:29 |
msb__ | Or if you're feeling low, 5 grams twice a day. | Mar 11 16:31 |
cubezzz | yeah it's hard to know if your getting enough nutrition from the food you eat | Mar 11 16:32 |
msb__ | Generally you're not, and it's worth a buck a day or so to take supplements. | Mar 11 16:34 |
msb__ | fish oil, various antioxidants, Bs, C, ubiquinol, sublingual B12, minerals, A (carotene), D3,... | Mar 11 16:35 |
msb__ | Especially as one gets older and doesn't make or absorb nutrients that we used to. | Mar 11 16:36 |
msb__ | Like B12. Very important, but useless orally, except under the tongue. | Mar 11 16:37 |
msb__ | That's why middle-aged an older people get B12 shots. But sublingual is just as good. | Mar 11 16:39 |
Sosumi | well, I think I jst overdosed myself with vit c | Mar 11 16:45 |
msb__ | cubezzz: What should I be looking for in those computerworld pages? | Mar 11 16:45 |
msb__ | Sosumi: How much did you take? | Mar 11 16:46 |
cubezzz | actually that issue isn't terribly interesting | Mar 11 16:46 |
cubezzz | try this one: | Mar 11 16:46 |
msb__ | Less than 1 metric ton is safe. | Mar 11 16:46 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/cw-1979-dec-24.tar.gz | Mar 11 16:46 |
Sosumi | 4 oranges and a ton of strawberries | Mar 11 16:46 |
Sosumi | and a couple slices of pineapple | Mar 11 16:46 |
Sosumi | and 5 apples | Mar 11 16:47 |
cubezzz | msb__, I just find looking at historical computer info is interesting | Mar 11 16:47 |
msb__ | Sosumi: That amount of C won't hurt you certainly, probably 60 grams at once wouldn't, although it might give you a stomache ache and diarearia. | Mar 11 16:48 |
Sosumi | I was just joking | Mar 11 16:48 |
Sosumi | I eat that everyday | Mar 11 16:49 |
msb__ | Speaking of which, I'd stay near a toilet for a couple of days, or wear diapers. | Mar 11 16:49 |
Sosumi | with no issues at all | Mar 11 16:49 |
Sosumi | in order to replenish my vitamin stock from the abuses of the day | Mar 11 16:49 |
Sosumi | specially the ones that come associated with weight lifting | Mar 11 16:49 |
msb__ | Trouble is, you'd have to eat a very wide variety of foods to get the trace nutrients you need. Much easier with pills. | Mar 11 16:50 |
Sosumi | I've tried that | Mar 11 16:51 |
msb__ | Sosumi: I guess if you lift weights your anal sphincter is very strong? | Mar 11 16:51 |

Sosumi | vit supplements | Mar 11 16:52 |
Sosumi | even the weaker ones | Mar 11 16:52 |
cubezzz | I hate taking pills with lots of iron in them | Mar 11 16:53 |
cubezzz | they taste really gross | Mar 11 16:53 |
msb__ | Eat them with a little food. | Mar 11 16:53 |
Sosumi | ho but I did | Mar 11 16:53 |
msb__ | iron is bad for you unless you're low in hemoglobin | Mar 11 16:53 |
msb__ | Sosumi: never heard that from anyone else, except a few with stomach upset from Vit. C. Which you can eliminate by neutralizing its acidity with CaCO3 or MgCO3. | Mar 11 16:55 |
Sosumi | well, I'm an anomaly :) | Mar 11 16:55 |
Sosumi | but I try to compensate it through food | Mar 11 16:56 |
Sosumi | and it has been ok | Mar 11 16:56 |

msb__ | sure. Also aluminum and squalene, which can cause autoimmune disease. | Mar 11 17:42 |
msb__ | Al causes alzheimers. | Mar 11 17:42 |
MinceR | i wonder what the proof for that is | Mar 11 17:43 |
MinceR | and if it's even relevant to the dosage present in vaccines at all | Mar 11 17:43 |
MinceR | not to mention what compound that "mercury" and "aluminum" is present in | Mar 11 17:43 |
msb__ | In the 90s, a bunch of kidney patients got dialized against tapwater with high Al content. They got very fast alzheimers. Also the characteristic "neurofibrillary tangles" in Alz brains have 80x as much Al in them as other tissues. | Mar 11 17:45 |

msb__ | As to quantity and compound, I don't want *any* thank you very much. | Mar 11 17:47 |
Sosumi | the aluminum thing is true | Mar 11 17:47 |
Sosumi | as for the concentration of adverse adjuvants on the vaccine | Mar 11 17:47 |
Sosumi | no idea | Mar 11 17:47 |
Sosumi | but I agree on being safer than sorry | Mar 11 17:48 |

msb__ | Here's a fun read: http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19970914&slug=2560362 | Mar 11 17:48 |

Sosumi | there is nothing to worry abount | Mar 11 17:48 |
Sosumi | I know about | Mar 11 17:49 |
msb__ | nothing to worry about... nothing to worry about... nothing to worry about... | Mar 11 17:50 |
MinceR | "tapwater with high Al content" is very different from "vaccine containing thiomersal" | Mar 11 17:50 |
MinceR | 224715 < msb__> As to quantity and compound, I don't want *any* thank you very much. | Mar 11 17:50 |
MinceR | see, this has nothing to do with the scientific method | Mar 11 17:50 |
MinceR | or modern medicine. | Mar 11 17:51 |
msb__ | Of course, two different poisons. | Mar 11 17:51 |
MinceR | also, apparently thiomersal was already phased out of many vaccines | Mar 11 17:51 |
MinceR | even though there's no convincing evidence about the harm | Mar 11 17:51 |
MinceR | and pretty much everything is a poison, in the right dose | Mar 11 17:52 |
MinceR | so dosage _is_ important | Mar 11 17:52 |
MinceR | for example, oxygen can be poisonous at too high doses, but try living without it | Mar 11 17:52 |
MinceR | as for vaccines, the proper way to determine risk would probably be via real clinical trial, not speculation based on what element was found where. | Mar 11 17:53 |
MinceR | apparently in the case of O2, pressure is important as well as concentration | Mar 11 17:53 |
MinceR | (space suits use low pressure pure O2) | Mar 11 17:54 |
MinceR | water can be poisonous as well | Mar 11 17:54 |
MinceR | etc. | Mar 11 17:54 |
msb__ | So can stupidity. | Mar 11 17:54 |
MinceR | not in the same sense | Mar 11 17:54 |
Sosumi | play nice folks | Mar 11 17:58 |
MinceR | also, thiomersal will probably not harm you. but pertussis will kill you. :> | Mar 11 17:59 |
MinceR | and so will TBC. | Mar 11 18:00 |
Sosumi | just remember what dalton said | Mar 11 18:00 |
Sosumi | everything is poison and nothing is poison | Mar 11 18:00 |
Sosumi | it's just a matter of quantity | Mar 11 18:00 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 11 18:01 |
Sosumi | gn | Mar 11 18:02 |
MinceR | o/ | Mar 11 18:02 |
MinceR | squalene is (allegedly) mostly used for non-human vaccines and might even be beneficial | Mar 11 18:03 |
MinceR | also, squalene is a vital part of the synthesis of sterols, including cholesterol and vitamin D -- so the "Al in water => Al is evil" theory would mean no vitamin D or lipoproteins for you :> | Mar 11 18:08 |

msb__ | I have done extensive trials on Vit C for viruses -- 50 years on myself for colds and flu, a couple of cats, and a 5-year old with measles (of course with doses scaled to body weight). In all cases there was relief of symptoms within 1-3 hours, and eventual return of symptoms a few hours after that, whereupon I began continuous treatment for a few days. | Mar 11 21:45 |
msb__ | Since the cats and kid didn't know what they were getting, that was a blind experiment. I've also given it to various adults, with the same results. | Mar 11 21:47 |
msb__ | The results all agreed with the findings of Cathcart, Pauling, Klenner (who consistently cured polio with C), and others, I regard the action of C against viral infections as proven beyond doubt. | Mar 11 21:49 |

msb__ | According to the article, "high" dose C raises the incidence of kidney stones in men from 1% to 2%. 99% of men who take it and 100% of women, have no increased kidney stones. | Mar 12 04:14 |
msb__ | The article lies when it says there are no health benefits. My site links to several, and Cathcart's to even more. | Mar 12 04:15 |
msb__ | "Ester-C | Mar 12 04:16 |
msb__ | The name "Ester-C" is a lie. I've looked at the package. It's calcium ascorbate, exactly what you don't want to take if your body is unusually good at converting ascorbate to oxalate, which forms kidney stones with Ca. | Mar 12 04:17 |

Sosumi | yes | Mar 12 11:04 |
Sosumi | just like the US | Mar 12 11:04 |
MinceR | they can't even provide enough toilet paper to their people^Wserfs | Mar 12 11:07 |
Sosumi | well | Mar 12 11:08 |
Sosumi | there are tent cities in the US with people that dropped out of the labor market and can't find a job | Mar 12 11:08 |
Sosumi | which don't even account for the unemployment % | Mar 12 11:08 |
Sosumi | same also happens in japan | Mar 12 11:09 |

Sosumi | when certain things are taken to the extreme | Mar 12 11:09 |
Sosumi | no good outcome can come out of that | Mar 12 11:09 |
Sosumi | did I forget detroit? | Mar 12 11:10 |
MinceR | maybe the turbo-republicans will succeed at destroying the economy to the point where they can sell cheap labor like the PRC does now :> | Mar 12 11:10 |
Sosumi | cheap labor? | Mar 12 11:10 |
Sosumi | more like sweat shop labor | Mar 12 11:10 |
MinceR | indeed. | Mar 12 11:10 |
MinceR | modern slavery | Mar 12 11:10 |
Sosumi | those folks don't even earn the required money to buy what they manufacture | Mar 12 11:11 |

Sosumi | putting 90% markups on products | Mar 12 11:11 |
Sosumi | hey, like apple does | Mar 12 11:11 |
Sosumi | which is an exaggeration | Mar 12 11:13 |
Sosumi | other companies do that too, just to sound premium | Mar 12 11:14 |
Sosumi | like samsung was doing with the galaxy s4 | Mar 12 11:14 |
Sosumi | by releasing it at the same price as the iphone | Mar 12 11:14 |
Sosumi | to them lower the price by 200€ in 2 months | Mar 12 11:15 |
MinceR | because the idiotic buyers believe that the hypePhone is premium and that it's worth its price | Mar 12 11:17 |
Sosumi | but the s4 isn't premium either | Mar 12 11:17 |
MinceR | at least the s4 is a smartphone | Mar 12 11:17 |
MinceR | and a high-end one at that, iirc | Mar 12 11:17 |
Sosumi | one is a piece of crippled crap with fancy looks | Mar 12 11:17 |

Sosumi | the other is turd made of plastic that doesn't get the updates at the same time google updates android | Mar 12 11:18 |

Sosumi | the region locking | Mar 12 11:18 |
Sosumi | which makes no sense | Mar 12 11:18 |
MinceR | only nexus devices get the updates when google updates android | Mar 12 11:18 |
MinceR | and there are good reasons for some of the delays | Mar 12 11:18 |
Sosumi | but samsung could at least use a metallic frame on their phones to add some resistance to screen | Mar 12 11:20 |

MinceR | sure, but does the display stay in one piece, does the phone keep working? | Mar 12 11:26 |

Sosumi | socialism is a mad experiment | Mar 12 11:30 |

msb__ | same thing | Mar 12 11:32 |

msb__ | ...capitalism that is not severely regulated | Mar 12 11:32 |

Sosumi | and if they do get the shaft, well, at least try to minize the damage done | Mar 12 11:34 |
msb__ | Sosumi: yes | Mar 12 11:34 |

Sosumi | I fail to notice the programming | Mar 12 11:50 |
msb__ | No, at school -- grades 1 to 12 -- you are taught to believe what you're told, not question it, and regurgitate it, else you are punished. | Mar 12 11:50 |
Sosumi | I was never punished for questioning | Mar 12 11:50 |
msb__ | Possibly the unnoticed programming is responsible for your belief that people who are flooded with lying propaganda deserve to suffer. | Mar 12 11:51 |
Sosumi | I just took the classes and at the end of the day would go to the library seek more info | Mar 12 11:51 |
Sosumi | well, they bring it onto themselves, don't they? | Mar 12 11:51 |
msb__ | Can you see that JCI religion is programming not to think? | Mar 12 11:51 |
msb__ | No, they don't. | Mar 12 11:51 |
Sosumi | well if they live confortably in their own ignorance, let them live | Mar 12 11:52 |
msb__ | The psychopaths ordering the propaganda bring it onto them. | Mar 12 11:52 |
Sosumi | what good does a person like that bring | Mar 12 11:52 |
msb__ | Not much, if they are programmed not to think. | Mar 12 11:53 |
Sosumi | ho yes, the poor victim who can't discern what is good and what is bad | Mar 12 11:53 |
msb__ | Because they swim in a sea of lies. | Mar 12 11:53 |
Sosumi | do them? | Mar 12 11:53 |
msb__ | That's the Bernays technique. Are you familiar with it? | Mar 12 11:53 |
Sosumi | or they just swim through their xbox library and tv channels | Mar 12 11:53 |
Sosumi | and do not care about anything else | Mar 12 11:54 |
Sosumi | because it is not in their comfort zone | Mar 12 11:54 |
msb__ | So, apparently you have no empathy. Do you know the name of that condition? | Mar 12 11:54 |
Sosumi | empathy for what? | Mar 12 11:54 |
Sosumi | I deal with people every single day | Mar 12 11:55 |
msb__ | For people who are so intensively lied to that they believe the lies. | Mar 12 11:55 |
Sosumi | I'm not going to put things inside their heads | Mar 12 11:55 |
msb__ | ? | Mar 12 11:55 |
Sosumi | I may point were to look | Mar 12 11:55 |
Sosumi | but they'll have to learn things by themselves | Mar 12 11:55 |
msb__ | So, apparently you have no empathy. Do you know the name of that condition? | Mar 12 11:55 |
Sosumi | ho yes, I have a junior student asking me to solve him a calculus problem | Mar 12 11:56 |
Sosumi | so instead of giving him directions | Mar 12 11:57 |
Sosumi | I solve the exercise for him | Mar 12 11:57 |
msb__ | Very different situation. He is not being lied to to prevent him from solving it. | Mar 12 11:57 |
Sosumi | and he learns nothing | Mar 12 11:57 |
Sosumi | same thing | Mar 12 11:57 |
Sosumi | one is a hard science the other is a human science | Mar 12 11:57 |
msb__ | Do you know about Bernays technique for mind control? | Mar 12 11:57 |
Sosumi | what bernays technique | Mar 12 11:58 |
Sosumi | he may have written about it on porpaganda and his papaers | Mar 12 11:58 |

Sosumi | is he? what about bertrand russel? | Mar 12 12:00 |
cubezzz | worst that Hitler? seems unlikely :) | Mar 12 12:00 |
Sosumi | shiklegruber was actually a kewl guy | Mar 12 12:00 |
Sosumi | at least, killed less than stalin and mao | Mar 12 12:01 |
Sosumi | but lets not forget the blood count bush senior/junior, clinton and obozo | Mar 12 12:02 |
msb__ | Perhaps Microsoft has planted nazis in techrights to produce regime change. | Mar 12 12:03 |
Sosumi | and LBJ with the vietnam escalation | Mar 12 12:03 |
Sosumi | remember agent orange and all that? | Mar 12 12:04 |
Sosumi | maybe, just maybe, the kill count for vietnam was larger than hitlers kill count | Mar 12 12:05 |
Sosumi | and ppl continue suffering the repercussions to this day | Mar 12 12:05 |
msb__ | You have changed the topic of conversation away from your total lack of empathy for populations lied to by ubiquitous fascist proganda. | Mar 12 12:05 |
Sosumi | so the kill counter is still ticking | Mar 12 12:05 |
Sosumi | what empathy? | Mar 12 12:06 |
msb__ | Because you can't deal with that topic. | Mar 12 12:06 |
msb__ | Exactly -- you have none. That is the definition of a sociopath/psychopath. | Mar 12 12:06 |
Sosumi | what empathy? again | Mar 12 12:06 |
msb__ | You have changed the topic of conversation away from your total lack of empathy for populations lied to by ubiquitous fascist proganda. | Mar 12 12:07 |
Sosumi | for ppl who are too inept to break out of their comfort zones? | Mar 12 12:07 |
msb__ | For people who don't know what reality is, because they are surrounded by lies, as in The Matrix. | Mar 12 12:07 |
Sosumi | cubezzz was the combo breaker | Mar 12 12:07 |
msb__ | ? | Mar 12 12:08 |
Sosumi | yet, as in the matrix some ppl were not ready to deal with the truth | Mar 12 12:08 |
Sosumi | so they couldn't be unplugged | Mar 12 12:08 |
Sosumi | and even at first neo had trouble accepting his new reality | Mar 12 12:09 |
Sosumi | so, I don't see what is the point | Mar 12 12:09 |
Sosumi | by mentioning the movie | Mar 12 12:09 |
Sosumi | which was bad | Mar 12 12:09 |
msb__ | I'm talking about the vast majority of people who have not been "unplugged". You say they deserve the results of their programmed ignorance. | Mar 12 12:09 |
Sosumi | and cliché | Mar 12 12:10 |
cubezzz | as a hacker movie matrix wasn't very good | Mar 12 12:10 |
Sosumi | if they're not willing to think for themselves | Mar 12 12:10 |
Sosumi | well, they deserve everything they get | Mar 12 12:11 |
msb__ | One of the most Conscious movies ever made, since it portrays the magnitude of the lying. | Mar 12 12:11 |
Sosumi | ho yes, here we go with the new age mantra | Mar 12 12:11 |
msb__ | They can't think for themselves if they are denied truthful information and showered with lies. | Mar 12 12:11 |
Sosumi | consciousness! I tell ya | Mar 12 12:11 |
Sosumi | now here's a joint of marijuana | Mar 12 12:12 |
msb__ | Consciousness is something you do not have. | Mar 12 12:12 |
Sosumi | well, actually now we entered into a paradigm | Mar 12 12:12 |
Sosumi | if they can't think for themselves | Mar 12 12:12 |
cubezzz | also the "code" in jurassic park was ridiculous :) | Mar 12 12:13 |
Sosumi | how can they decide if they are going to play xbox one ps3? | Mar 12 12:13 |
msb__ | You're a programmed sociopathic robot. | Mar 12 12:13 |
Sosumi | *or | Mar 12 12:13 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/jurassic-code.jpg | Mar 12 12:13 |
Sosumi | ho yes, the evil sosumi | Mar 12 12:13 |
Sosumi | vs the messiah msb__ | Mar 12 12:14 |
Sosumi | who thinks that by regurgitating alex jones is going to save everyone | Mar 12 12:14 |
cubezzz | alex jones was smart enough to interview Stallman :) | Mar 12 12:14 |
msb__ | Jones is anti-socialist. | Mar 12 12:14 |
cubezzz | but yeah, Jones is crazy | Mar 12 12:14 |
Sosumi | because, hey AJ says "we" are winning, when in fact, "we" are losing, big time | Mar 12 12:15 |
Sosumi | plus, messiah msb__ | Mar 12 12:15 |
Sosumi | you can't save them all | Mar 12 12:15 |
msb__ | I and many others try to save some. | Mar 12 12:16 |
Sosumi | then good luck, grab your bullhorn and go yell at the street about the evil people | Mar 12 12:17 |
Sosumi | while everyone gives you a sight and thinks you're a raving lunatic | Mar 12 12:18 |
msb__ | Calling me "messiah" is a lying propaganda technique: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strawman | Mar 12 12:18 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Straw man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia | Mar 12 12:18 | |
Sosumi | nop, it is referring to your mentality | Mar 12 12:19 |
msb__ | Giving people accurate information is not being a "messiah". | Mar 12 12:20 |
Sosumi | but do the people want the information you're giving them? | Mar 12 12:20 |
Sosumi | did they ASK for it? | Mar 12 12:20 |
Sosumi | that goes to the point of saying jesus died to save us from our sin | Mar 12 12:21 |
Sosumi | but how many did actually want to be saved? | Mar 12 12:21 |
Sosumi | or actually knew what salvation was? | Mar 12 12:21 |
Sosumi | got the point? | Mar 12 12:22 |
Sosumi | messiah msb__ | Mar 12 12:22 |
msb__ | Obviously you don't, Sosumi. You have no empathy, you said "<Sosumi> shiklegruber was actually a kewl guy", and you are ignorant of Bernays. | Mar 12 12:22 |
cubezzz | I wouldn't give a linux disc to an Amish person :) | Mar 12 12:22 |
Sosumi | well, or the messiah msb__ would have to save them from the evils of technology | Mar 12 12:23 |
Sosumi | and then he would be called the luddite messiah msb__ | Mar 12 12:23 |
cubezzz | people are pretty ignorant though | Mar 12 12:24 |
msb__ | Wow, I have a whole new psychopath stalker! | Mar 12 12:24 |
Sosumi | although he kind of fits more on the context of the unibomber messiah msb__ | Mar 12 12:24 |
cubezzz | but there has to be some level of willingness to learn for anyone to absorb useful info | Mar 12 12:25 |
Sosumi | follower of the church of ted kashinski | Mar 12 12:25 |
cubezzz | Kaczynski was a giant social misfit | Mar 12 12:25 |
Sosumi | but he did make valid points | Mar 12 12:25 |
Sosumi | on his manifesto | Mar 12 12:25 |
Sosumi | and would have made a great ethicist | Mar 12 12:27 |
msb__ | Sosumi's heroes: Hitler and Ted Kaczynski. | Mar 12 12:28 |
cubezzz | except he bombed computer folks | Mar 12 12:28 |
cubezzz | kind of a downer | Mar 12 12:28 |
msb__ | It's nice to have an IRC client that logs everything. | Mar 12 12:29 |
Sosumi | nop, | Mar 12 12:29 |
cubezzz | at least guys like Paul Ehrlich who wrote about the ills of society managed to not bomb people | Mar 12 12:29 |

Sosumi | and it is funny, considering that I once had a 866Mhz P3 and geforce 4 ti4600 | Mar 12 15:21 |
Sosumi | and I couldn't max, say ut2003 on that | Mar 12 15:22 |

cubezzz | I wrote about some ideas about distros here: | Mar 12 15:30 |
cubezzz | http://cubexyz.blogspot.ca/2012/05/eternal-distro.html | Mar 12 15:30 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-cubexyz.blogspot.ca | Notes on Linux: The Eternal Distro [ http://ur1.ca/gtvp8 ] | Mar 12 15:30 | |
Sosumi | I think the idea is great, but at the same kind of comparing to running the marathon with a leg tied behind my back | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | given the amount of hardware that gets dumped each year | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | specially from the gamer croud | Mar 12 15:43 |
Sosumi | *crowd | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | everyone and you could always get cheap upgrades | Mar 12 15:44 |
Sosumi | and a p3 is ancient | Mar 12 15:45 |
Sosumi | specially a 500Mhz | Mar 12 15:45 |
Sosumi | and the thing is just not about the upgrade treadmill | Mar 12 15:47 |
Sosumi | but as the complexity of the software increases so does the need for faster hardware | Mar 12 15:48 |
Sosumi | and I'm in doubt | Mar 12 15:48 |
Sosumi | for things like a server, doesn't the current version of fedora run on a p3? | Mar 12 15:49 |
cubezzz | read Vance Packard "The Waste Makers" and you might change your mind | Mar 12 15:49 |
MinceR | even the complexity of the data increases :> | Mar 12 15:49 |
Sosumi | hardly, when I buy faster hardware is mostly because I outgrew what I had | Mar 12 15:50 |
cubezzz | I found newer Fedora less reliable to be honest | Mar 12 15:50 |
MinceR | and that of websites, unfortunately | Mar 12 15:50 |
cubezzz | well badly designed web designs is a poor excuse | Mar 12 15:50 |
cubezzz | we live in a society of waste, it's well over the top | Mar 12 15:52 |
Sosumi | but that waste brings progress and further advancement | Mar 12 15:52 |
Sosumi | what could be considered waste | Mar 12 15:53 |
cubezzz | ewaste, the world's full of it | Mar 12 15:54 |
Sosumi | is the use and trow away tech | Mar 12 15:54 |
Sosumi | like those prebuilt computers with no standard parts | Mar 12 15:54 |
cubezzz | plastics, chip fab, all need highly caustic chemicals | Mar 12 15:54 |
cubezzz | which end up in your soil | Mar 12 15:55 |
cubezzz | I'm merely suggesting cutting back on that | Mar 12 15:55 |
cubezzz | well I would suggest not buying bic-lighter computers :) | Mar 12 15:57 |
Sosumi | the biggest factor contributing to that is consumer tech | Mar 12 15:57 |
Sosumi | I don't see how it'd be possible to cut on that | Mar 12 15:58 |
Sosumi | ppl want crap, manufacturers give them crap | Mar 12 15:59 |
MinceR | manufacturers also make crap that nobody wants | Mar 12 15:59 |
MinceR | i.e. winblows phone phones | Mar 12 15:59 |
cubezzz | I don't think people really want crap, I think they just aren't thinking about it | Mar 12 15:59 |
Sosumi | I'm certainly not the one buying a big tv totally overblown colors | Mar 12 16:00 |
MinceR | people want crap so much they're willing to pay more for worse | Mar 12 16:00 |
MinceR | for example, for hypePhones | Mar 12 16:00 |
Sosumi | hypePhones, bang & ollufsen, etc | Mar 12 16:01 |
cubezzz | I like getting an old computer and fixing it up | Mar 12 16:01 |
Sosumi | fit into the model of a huge price premium just for the sake of exclusivity | Mar 12 16:01 |
Sosumi | and "perceived value" | Mar 12 16:02 |
cubezzz | "The Hidden Persauders" 1957 :) | Mar 12 16:02 |
cubezzz | also by Vance Packard | Mar 12 16:02 |
Sosumi | Bernays mentioned that on his book Propaganda, messiah complex msb__ | Mar 12 16:02 |
cubezzz | Sun Microsystems had a lot of very interesting ideas to make computers more reliable | Mar 12 16:03 |
Sosumi | "had" | Mar 12 16:03 |
Sosumi | I'm still longing for a new sparc station or powerstation | Mar 12 16:03 |
cubezzz | I think Sun Oracle still sell servers | Mar 12 16:04 |
cubezzz | no idea what the prices are, I assume big $$$ | Mar 12 16:04 |
Sosumi | yes, just servers | Mar 12 16:04 |
cubezzz | glibc is bloated too | Mar 12 16:06 |
cubezzz | hence the creation of dietlibc | Mar 12 16:09 |
cubezzz | the funny part about this is I've had this same convo 10 years ago :) | Mar 12 16:14 |
cubezzz | "come on, systems these days need at least 256 megs of ram" | Mar 12 16:14 |
cubezzz | "get rid of that crappy Pentium 1" | Mar 12 16:14 |
MinceR | one problem with the Eternal Distro is that at some point some packages would cease to receive security updates | Mar 12 16:15 |
MinceR | from upstream | Mar 12 16:15 |
cubezzz | 2.11BSD still gets patches | Mar 12 16:19 |
cubezzz | but that doesn't run on actual hardware in my case | Mar 12 16:20 |
cubezzz | some packages in openbsd are from the 90's | Mar 12 16:22 |
cubezzz | some stuff gets orphaned, the creator loses interest, it happens | Mar 12 16:25 |
MinceR | does it update applications and libraries that are 4 or more stable major releases ahead of what it ships? :> | Mar 12 16:28 |
MinceR | at some point, the upstream developer's response to requests for security fixes becomes "just upgrade already, that release is 10 years old!" :> | Mar 12 16:29 |
MinceR | there's only so many releases they can maintain simultaneously | Mar 12 16:29 |

MinceR | looks like samsung took the same approach here as with the exynos 4 /dev/exynos-mem device | Mar 12 16:44 |
MinceR | (i.e. make a much bigger hole than necessary) | Mar 12 16:44 |

MinceR | that won't do non-voip phone calls and you can't answer calls on the street :> | Mar 12 16:50 |
Sosumi | if I was some kind of mafia guy for that combo | Mar 12 16:50 |
Sosumi | I don't people to call me | Mar 12 16:51 |

Sosumi | and doing pointless talk | Mar 12 16:52 |
Sosumi | just writing it down on email, takes less time and it makes it much easier | Mar 12 16:53 |
MinceR | unfortunately some of the people i keep contact with don't use email | Mar 12 16:53 |
Sosumi | without the need to yell at the phone because, say transit, radio, chatter and so on | Mar 12 16:53 |

Sosumi | :( | Mar 12 17:41 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: however he has donated all his computer stuff to Mageia it seems | Mar 12 17:42 |
Sosumi | that was a honorable thing to do | Mar 12 17:44 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: yeah well he had like three computers i THINK | Mar 12 17:44 |
sebsebseb | pluswhatever else | Mar 12 17:44 |
sebsebseb | and Magiea was his life at the end and very much so | Mar 12 17:44 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: even when he was rather unwell he e | Mar 12 17:44 |
sebsebseb | he felt bad that he coudn't just contribute anymore | Mar 12 17:44 |
Sosumi | how old was he? | Mar 12 17:45 |
sebsebseb | 50 something | Mar 12 17:45 |
Sosumi | well you know | Mar 12 17:46 |
Sosumi | life is short and he did use his limited time to make it count | Mar 12 17:46 |
sebsebseb | yeah | Mar 12 17:47 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 12 17:47 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: also I am wondeirng what has happended to someone else | Mar 12 17:47 |
sebsebseb | that been chatting a lot to online | Mar 12 17:47 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she might have died as well, I really don't know | Mar 12 17:48 |
sebsebseb | and no way to just find out etc | Mar 12 17:48 |
Sosumi | also involved in mageia? | Mar 12 17:48 |
sebsebseb | nope | Mar 12 17:48 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: just a girl I came across online (or whoever they really are) | Mar 12 17:49 |
sebsebseb | ,but also one that woudn't do anything, but online text hmm | Mar 12 17:49 |
sebsebseb | well ok I saw some photos to, but that's it | Mar 12 17:49 |
Sosumi | online on irc? | Mar 12 17:49 |
sebsebseb | onine | Mar 12 17:49 |
sebsebseb | not IRC | Mar 12 17:49 |
Sosumi | have you seen if she changed the nick? | Mar 12 17:50 |
Sosumi | or probably just moved over onto something else | Mar 12 17:50 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she only has me on the particular chat account apparnatly to | Mar 12 17:51 |
sebsebseb | and won't just add to Facebook and uh | Mar 12 17:51 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: so basically I just lose contact | Mar 12 17:52 |

Sosumi | I see | Mar 12 17:52 |
sebsebseb | ,but then issues | Mar 12 17:53 |
sebsebseb | plus got in contact wht someone else, and then she tsopped chatting to me loads etc | Mar 12 17:53 |
sebsebseb | and uh | Mar 12 17:53 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ,but really annoyingly the communication issues | Mar 12 17:53 |
Sosumi | communication issues in what sense? improper language? | Mar 12 17:54 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no as in refusing to do anything more than just instant messagingin | Mar 12 17:54 |
sebsebseb | and occasioan emails maybe | Mar 12 17:54 |
sebsebseb | and not adding me onto whatever account hte other guy is on etc | Mar 12 17:54 |
sebsebseb | or Facebook even etc | Mar 12 17:55 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and not doing any voice thing, SKype or some other voip thing, or the phone even | Mar 12 17:55 |
sebsebseb | anyway it's been about four months now, and she may not be coming back this time it seems | Mar 12 17:55 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she may have got a bit upset at me in the last chat in fact as well | Mar 12 17:56 |
Sosumi | was she good looking? | Mar 12 17:56 |
Sosumi | had to ask ;) | Mar 12 17:56 |
sebsebseb | yeah I guess or enough | Mar 12 17:56 |
sebsebseb | ,but it's the personality what she is like and such, that's the wow | Mar 12 17:56 |
sebsebseb | except for the communicaiotn issues | Mar 12 17:56 |
sebsebseb | and things like that | Mar 12 17:57 |
Sosumi | how so? | Mar 12 17:57 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: eh nevermind | Mar 12 17:58 |
Sosumi | then I'll just my fertile imagination to draw a picture of her :P | Mar 12 17:59 |
Sosumi | *use | Mar 12 17:59 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: oh you mean looks? | Mar 12 18:00 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: uhmm she has brown hair it seems | Mar 12 18:00 |
Sosumi | I meant her personality | Mar 12 18:00 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: she's not the averare girl | Mar 12 18:00 |
sebsebseb | really isn't the averaet girl | Mar 12 18:00 |
sebsebseb | a rare find | Mar 12 18:00 |
Sosumi | since that was the WoW factor | Mar 12 18:00 |
Sosumi | tell tell | Mar 12 18:00 |
sebsebseb | and I foundher onine, and then uh everything changed hmm | Mar 12 18:00 |
sebsebseb | after about 8 months | Mar 12 18:00 |
sebsebseb | shame | Mar 12 18:00 |
Sosumi | you still didn't explain what was WOWing about her | Mar 12 18:01 |
Sosumi | but it is ok :) | Mar 12 18:02 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: you won't realy understandl | Mar 12 18:02 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: it's just the chats we had and such | Mar 12 18:02 |
sebsebseb | that's the wow | Mar 12 18:02 |
sebsebseb | how well we got on etc | Mar 12 18:02 |
sebsebseb | well until most stuff changed, and changed a lot changed pretty much completly really even uh :( | Mar 12 18:02 |
Sosumi | you fell in love | Mar 12 18:05 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: yeah basically as far as net went, but keeping reality in mind, not voiced, notmet etc, and them probably not realy feeliing the same way or not quite | Mar 12 18:06 |
Sosumi | :) | Mar 12 18:06 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and then she came across some guy who was more interesting than me | Mar 12 18:06 |
sebsebseb | online | Mar 12 18:06 |
sebsebseb | and yep everthing chaned | Mar 12 18:06 |
sebsebseb | and changed a lot | Mar 12 18:06 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and we went from chatting nearly every day | Mar 12 18:07 |
sebsebseb | to hardly at all | Mar 12 18:07 |
sebsebseb | loads of periods of lots of weeks no chat | Mar 12 18:07 |
sebsebseb | her not on etc | Mar 12 18:07 |
sebsebseb | ,but now it's been the longest one, so I am wondeirng what's going on | Mar 12 18:07 |
sebsebseb | ,because of helath issues etc | Mar 12 18:07 |
sebsebseb | uh | Mar 12 18:07 |
Sosumi | did she have health issues? | Mar 12 18:07 |
sebsebseb | yep | Mar 12 18:07 |
Sosumi | complicated? | Mar 12 18:08 |
sebsebseb | sure | Mar 12 18:08 |
sebsebseb | some pretty bad stuff by the soundsof it | Mar 12 18:08 |
sebsebseb | ,but don't realy understnad most of it | Mar 12 18:08 |
sebsebseb | the medical terms etc | Mar 12 18:08 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: and one time she had apendicious andn earlydied, whist away apparnatly, you see why I am a bit worried etc | Mar 12 18:09 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 12 18:09 |
sebsebseb | and no it's not, just go find some other girl to get ot know all properly like that, it doesn't work that way | Mar 12 18:09 |
sebsebseb | really hard to find someone like what I found | Mar 12 18:09 |
Sosumi | wait then | Mar 12 18:10 |
Sosumi | a month or two | Mar 12 18:10 |
Sosumi | but then better move on | Mar 12 18:10 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no I mean got to find someone in person or online | Mar 12 18:10 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ,but | Mar 12 18:10 |
sebsebseb | online uh that doesn't really work usaully | Mar 12 18:10 |
sebsebseb | 99% of the time | Mar 12 18:10 |
Sosumi | I've no idea | Mar 12 18:11 |
Sosumi | since I don't "date" online | Mar 12 18:11 |
sebsebseb | and in person I don't really know enough girls at the moment | Mar 12 18:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I don't mean a date neassirely | Mar 12 18:11 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I mean soeone to get to know, to build up a special freindship with at least | Mar 12 18:11 |
sebsebseb | oh and that happens to be a girl as well | Mar 12 18:11 |

msb__ | cubezzz: Nice blog! | Mar 12 18:41 |
cubezzz | thanks :) | Mar 12 18:41 |
msb__ | cubezzz: Are you a KDE3 fan? | Mar 12 18:42 |
cubezzz | yeah, pretty much | Mar 12 18:42 |
cubezzz | I use a variety of window managers | Mar 12 18:42 |
msb__ | Me too. | Mar 12 18:42 |
cubezzz | gnome2, icewm, mwm, a couple of KDE 3.X's, xfce | Mar 12 18:43 |
msb__ | I don't mess with the system much, just stay with KDE3.5 and some KDE4 apps. | Mar 12 18:44 |
msb__ | But I've written a lot of bash scripts. | Mar 12 18:44 |

msb__ | Looks like old sunview or xeroxparc. | Mar 12 18:46 |
msb__ | No taskbar or desktop switcher? | Mar 12 18:46 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/sunview-desktop.png | Mar 12 18:46 |
cubezzz | :) | Mar 12 18:46 |
cubezzz | iconbox is a sort of taskbar | Mar 12 18:47 |
msb__ | ok, different style 8^) | Mar 12 18:47 |
cubezzz | that tiny font on sunview would drive me nuts | Mar 12 18:48 |
cubezzz | I can run KDE 3.5 and mwm at the same time | Mar 12 18:48 |
msb__ | I've taken to using the KDE4 magnifier app sometimes. | Mar 12 18:49 |
cubezzz | I'm a fairly good motif programmer :) | Mar 12 18:49 |
cubezzz | KDE4 was just too slow on my old computers | Mar 12 18:49 |
cubezzz | I use reading glasses but I hate using glasses when I'm on a computer | Mar 12 18:50 |
cubezzz | I'd rather just make the font bigger | Mar 12 18:50 |
msb__ | I don't like KDE4's whole style, and you can't read the desktop names in the desktop switcher ("pager") so I dumped it. | Mar 12 18:50 |
msb__ | Multiple desktops are vital to me. | Mar 12 18:51 |
cubezzz | you can run more than one window manager remember | Mar 12 18:52 |
msb__ | Why would I need more than KDE3? | Mar 12 18:52 |
cubezzz | xinit mwm -- :8 | Mar 12 18:53 |
cubezzz | well, I wanted to experiment and improve my X window system knowledge | Mar 12 18:53 |
cubezzz | plus mwm is motif based so... a chance to learn more about motif | Mar 12 18:54 |
MinceR | a chance to learn why nobody uses motif anymore :> | Mar 12 18:54 |
cubezzz | I use it :) | Mar 12 18:54 |
MinceR | "bro, do you even ewmh?" | Mar 12 18:54 |
msb__ | Sounds nasty. | Mar 12 18:55 |
cubezzz | I did say I run KDE3.5 as well :) | Mar 12 18:55 |
MinceR | i use mwm at work, i'm not a big fan of it :> | Mar 12 18:55 |
MinceR | of course, it still beats windows | Mar 12 18:55 |
MinceR | and macos | Mar 12 18:55 |
msb__ | One thing I want to learn is graphics programming in X. I have some starter code somewhere. | Mar 12 18:56 |
cubezzz | I feel I can understand mwm source better than KDE3.5 source | Mar 12 18:56 |
MinceR | i haven't looked at mwm source yet | Mar 12 18:57 |
MinceR | i've coded an application for kde3 once, though :> | Mar 12 18:57 |
msb__ | These days I only make the effort to understand stuff when I need to. It's a big world. I was pissed when transistors came along and replaced glowing warm vacuum tubes. | Mar 12 18:58 |
MinceR | i'm still curious | Mar 12 18:58 |
msb__ | And again when ICs replaced discretes so I couldn't trace inside them. | Mar 12 18:59 |
-->DrPizza (~DrPizza@lunix.quiscalusmexicanus.org) has joined #techrights | Mar 12 18:59 | |
msb__ | I'm curious too, but I have limited time. | Mar 12 18:59 |
cubezzz | it's not like I run something truely ancient like xwm :) | Mar 12 19:00 |
msb__ | Mostly I want to figure out how to help restore a conscious culture like in the 1960s. | Mar 12 19:00 |
MinceR | i haven't even seen xwm | Mar 12 19:00 |
MinceR | when i started using X, twm was already what shipped with XFree86 by default | Mar 12 19:01 |
MinceR | (then again, XFree86 might never had xwm, for all i know) | Mar 12 19:01 |
cubezzz | when was that MinceR ? | Mar 12 19:01 |
MinceR | around 2000, i think | Mar 12 19:01 |
cubezzz | yeah xwm is pretty old | Mar 12 19:02 |
cubezzz | that's getting into the X11R2 era, around 1988 | Mar 12 19:03 |
cubezzz | pre-linux :) | Mar 12 19:03 |
MinceR | :) | Mar 12 19:03 |
cubezzz | so Ultrix, or ummm | Mar 12 19:05 |
cubezzz | 4.3BSD-Tahoe I suppose | Mar 12 19:05 |
msb__ | My favorite bash script is called "p". If you do p filename while in the directory containing a file, it loads the FQ pathname of the file into the mouse clipboard. | Mar 12 19:06 |
msb__ | Text mode drag n drop! | Mar 12 19:06 |
cubezzz | well you can just hilight in konsole -> klipper | Mar 12 19:07 |
msb__ | Copy or move any file from one xterm (konsole) to another. And with mc in the console, you don't even have to type the filename. | Mar 12 19:07 |
msb__ | cubezzz: Won't that just get the filename, not the path from root? | Mar 12 19:08 |
cubezzz | I can just hilight the whole path | Mar 12 19:08 |
msb__ | But then you have to display the whole path first? | Mar 12 19:08 |
cubezzz | /mnt/e/old-x11/X.V10R3/xwm/xwm.h | Mar 12 19:09 |
cubezzz | ta da :) | Mar 12 19:09 |
cubezzz | yes, locate xwm.h then hilight since I can't remember where it is | Mar 12 19:09 |
msb__ | So you run "locate" to do that. Can take a few seconds. | Mar 12 19:10 |
msb__ | And then you have to run the cursor from one end of that text to the other, to hilite it. | Mar 12 19:10 |
cubezzz | let's see your script | Mar 12 19:11 |
msb__ | I just have to type "p %s" and then alt-enter and enter | Mar 12 19:12 |

msb__ | There used to be an xsel app that came with xfree86, but it's not in the present X. So I had to find another way to stuff the clipboard. | Mar 12 19:18 |
cubezzz | ah, I'd have to adjust that to use it | Mar 12 19:19 |
cubezzz | no libqt4 on that box | Mar 12 19:20 |
MinceR | there's a separate xsel package on debian | Mar 12 19:21 |
msb__ | I think I maintained the same command-line syntax in my xsel script as in the original xsel program, so if that debian one still works, it should replace mine with all its qdbus jazz. | Mar 12 19:24 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 12 19:24 |
MinceR | the distro you're using might have a separate xsel package as well | Mar 12 19:24 |
msb__ | Nope. First thing I checked. | Mar 12 19:24 |
msb__ | I also use an "xs" script, which is simply: xsel $* | Mar 12 19:27 |

DaemonFC | I was wondering why the bank didn't foreclose on her house sooner. | Mar 13 03:51 |
DaemonFC | Apparently, she had about $54,000 in her bank account when she died, so they kept making her house payment out of that until the money ran out. | Mar 13 03:52 |
DaemonFC | Still doesn't explain why nobody found her body for 6 years. | Mar 13 03:53 |

DaemonFC | It has been well documented that major tax increases are the biggest deterrent to smoking. | Mar 13 13:33 |
DaemonFC | In the United States, I believe that Congress should raise the tax until you can't go to a state in the country where the price of a pack is under $8. | Mar 13 13:33 |
DaemonFC | They should also pass legislation that reverses the Supreme Court's decision that said that Congress can't force tobacco companies to use plain packaging and graphic warnings. Making it illegal to use the current pack designs might be "unconstitutional", but making a law that says that there's an additional $10 tax per pack that does not meet the plain package and graphic warning requirements set by the FDA would be legal under Congress's power | Mar 13 13:33 |

DaemonFC | They had a "pension plan" where the company would contribute like 50 cents per hour worked, but you had to work there 7 years or else you didn't qualify to get any of your pension back. | Mar 13 13:58 |
MinceR | the government are a bunch of crApple cultists | Mar 13 13:58 |

DaemonFC | J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says: | Mar 13 14:23 |
DaemonFC | Unlike Laz, I am fair and impartial. When a company has been behaving badly, I don't try to sweep it all under the rug. | Mar 13 14:23 |
DaemonFC | In this case, it's a Samsung specific issue. If anyone can prove that my LG G2 has been similarly booby trapped, then I'll gladly eat some humble pie. | Mar 13 14:23 |
DaemonFC | The most disturbing part of this is that Samsung devices are all Google certified, so either Google knew of this backdoor in the proprietary libsamsung-ipc, and approved it anyway, or they overlooked it during the certification process. | Mar 13 14:23 |
DaemonFC | The problem with Android is that the version you get on actual devices always relies on some proprietary software. The thing that makes Apple worse is that iOS is almost completely proprietary and it is certainly not possible for anyone to ever release a corrected version of it without the spyware and backdoors. | Mar 13 14:23 |
DaemonFC | The beauty of Freedom respecting software is that if someone makes a version that does something nasty, someone else can come along and fix it, and that's exactly what Replicant's developers did in this case. They saw what libsamsung-ipc did, and replaced it with a fully Free library that stands in for it without the booby trap that Samsung put in theirs. | Mar 13 14:23 |
DaemonFC | On the whole, Android is a better choice than iOS, even if it has some of the same problems as iOS, because nobody can ever fix iOS and offer iPhone or iPad users a choice. The best that anyone can do with iOS is crack it, replace part of the OS, and open up the possibility of additional software sources, after voiding the warranty. | Mar 13 14:23 |
cubezzz | dude, it's like you're blogging _in_ IRC | Mar 13 14:23 |

Sosumi | to whom? | Mar 14 12:57 |
Sosumi | russia or crimea? | Mar 14 12:57 |
MinceR | that is not decided yet | Mar 14 12:57 |
MinceR | but there will be sanctions! | Mar 14 12:57 |
_Goblin | lol...sanctions.... | Mar 14 13:01 |
_Goblin | what sanctions ? The UK is impotent and needs Russia far more. | Mar 14 13:02 |
MinceR | what does the uk need russia for? | Mar 14 13:02 |
_Goblin | Trade...how much investment by the Russians? Much I think... | Mar 14 13:02 |
_Goblin | also | Mar 14 13:02 |
_Goblin | fuel | Mar 14 13:02 |
MinceR | ic | Mar 14 13:02 |
_Goblin | and keep in mind, its very easy for the US to jump up and down, but what on Earth can they do? | Mar 14 13:03 |
_Goblin | The US wouldn't dare take on Russia...as it only goes after softer targets | Mar 14 13:03 |
_Goblin | the UK is a joke....and in anycase is what Russia doing any different from the US and UK in their pasts? | Mar 14 13:03 |
MinceR | dunno, maybe they and their allies could stop trading with russia, but then much of europe would need to find some other place to get gas from | Mar 14 13:04 |
_Goblin | The Premier league in the UK is owned by the Russians...sort of. | Mar 14 13:04 |
_Goblin | Russia holds all the cards in my opinion and I think its rather hypocritical that the UK / US would try to tackle them over something which we have been "guilty" of ourselves. | Mar 14 13:05 |
_Goblin | The UK is irrelevant in Europe and whilst is the lapdog of its bigger more powerful brother the US, the US won't dare stick their neck too far over the line.... | Mar 14 13:06 |
_Goblin | I think Syria was a good indicator of the "bottle" the US and UK have when it comes to Russia....none at all. | Mar 14 13:07 |
_Goblin | and rightfully so....Russia is doing exactly what the US/UK would have/have done. | Mar 14 13:07 |
_Goblin | I'm also done with western "morals" of government, where lives of Palastinian children don't seem to be worth as much as those of Israel.....Both our governments are a disgrace. | Mar 14 13:09 |
_Goblin | * Palestinian | Mar 14 13:10 |
MinceR | afaik the us and uk stopped doing this sort of thing long ago | Mar 14 13:21 |
MinceR | afaik changing borders is kind of a no-no nowadays :> | Mar 14 13:21 |
MinceR | _Goblin: of course, if the US, UK and allies can't find a way to punish Russia, then it will really be... "Crimea River." :> | Mar 14 13:34 |

MinceR | _Goblin: just what and when? | Mar 14 15:42 |
_Goblin | If we look at here and now, they do it by proxy...and rather than extend borders they claim "liberation". | Mar 14 15:50 |
_Goblin | proxy example would be Israel. | Mar 14 15:50 |
_Goblin | however by "liberation" the designated place becomes extension of "liberating" government. | Mar 14 15:52 |
_Goblin | and what of the Falklands? | Mar 14 15:52 |
_Goblin | The power here is all about alliances, so in the case of Russia not only is there Russian might which frightens USA and UK, its the alliance with China. | Mar 14 15:53 |
_Goblin | Gibraltar....we don't give that back, do we? | Mar 14 15:53 |
_Goblin | and then by proxy give land away and extend our borders by a proxy (Israel) | Mar 14 15:54 |
_Goblin | but it doesnt matter because the plight of the Palestine won't be reported by Western media because of the allies in Israel. | Mar 14 15:55 |
_Goblin | I should quantify that comment though by saying that its no fault of the Israel people. This is government v government. | Mar 14 15:56 |
_Goblin | As is sadly the case around the world...its our governments bickering and acting appallingly....not the people. | Mar 14 15:56 |
MinceR | ic | Mar 14 15:59 |
MinceR | but those all happened a long time ago, didn't it? | Mar 14 16:00 |
MinceR | depending on whether what israel is doing now is by their own intent or usa's | Mar 14 16:00 |
_Goblin | And the west has its "no-no's" for people doing the same thing....because the west is the bastion of world morals and everyone else is comply with their vision of what is right and wrong. | Mar 14 16:01 |
_Goblin | Until it backfired, look at history of Russia (forgetting the actual cold war) | Mar 14 16:01 |
Sosumi | if the crimeans want to be part of the russia | Mar 14 16:01 |
MinceR | or because the Long Peace rests on them :> | Mar 14 16:01 |
Sosumi | what can the US do? | Mar 14 16:01 |
_Goblin | the US were so scared they assisted a certain group in afghanistan to fight the Russians. | Mar 14 16:02 |
Sosumi | indeed | Mar 14 16:02 |
_Goblin | They even made a film about it....Rambo 3 | Mar 14 16:02 |
Sosumi | a propaganda movie called rambo 34 | Mar 14 16:02 |
_Goblin | it was all glory then, whilst the rebels fought on approval of the US...then it went a little sour when the "rebels" realized the exact price for being a proxy of the US | Mar 14 16:03 |
MinceR | is that rule 34 of rambo? | Mar 14 16:03 |
Sosumi | which had on its credits a dedication to the brave mujahadee aka alqaeda | Mar 14 16:03 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 14 16:03 |
_Goblin | :) | Mar 14 16:03 |
Sosumi | no idea, I just tend to find those movies boring and dumb | Mar 14 16:03 |
MinceR | at least those are proxy wars | Mar 14 16:03 |
_Goblin | They are very factual... | Mar 14 16:03 |
MinceR | the one in ukraine is a direct one | Mar 14 16:04 |
_Goblin | not in a realistic way of course | Mar 14 16:04 |
_Goblin | but Rambo et al, portray what it is the US wants people to believe and what they fear the most | Mar 14 16:04 |
Sosumi | the only factual movie that I could remember was Wag the Dog | Mar 14 16:04 |
_Goblin | and the same in the UK..... | Mar 14 16:04 |
_Goblin | its not a conspiracy, because in the case of films, the film makers pander to the current affairs and whats reported in the media..... | Mar 14 16:05 |
_Goblin | no better time to sell an "Invasion" movie, when Russia is out of favour with you. | Mar 14 16:05 |
Sosumi | propaganda I tell you | Mar 14 16:06 |
MinceR | also good time to sell weapons :> | Mar 14 16:06 |
Sosumi | indeed | Mar 14 16:06 |
_Goblin | Yes, but the movie industry isnt instructed to produce it, they are merely making money off the back of it | Mar 14 16:06 |
Sosumi | and ammo | Mar 14 16:06 |
MinceR | and UAVs | Mar 14 16:06 |
_Goblin | this all comes back to the US and China... | Mar 14 16:07 |
Sosumi | I though that the CIA had finger in holywood | Mar 14 16:07 |
Sosumi | *thought | Mar 14 16:07 |
_Goblin | they have in the media for a long time... | Mar 14 16:07 |
MinceR | they might | Mar 14 16:07 |
_Goblin | Area 51 for example. | Mar 14 16:07 |
MinceR | but some things might be explained without them :> | Mar 14 16:07 |
_Goblin | theres no aliens there though. | Mar 14 16:07 |
_Goblin | Area 51 was a propaganda tool created for the Chinese to believe the US had aliens in hangers that they could unleash if China's world ambitions included the US | Mar 14 16:08 |
_Goblin | there never was an aliens, but the beauty of a government denial and a few sci fi movies was that the simple people believed more and more in a "conspiracy" and did the propaganda job for the government. | Mar 14 16:09 |
_Goblin | the more the government denied, the more people thought they were covering up....it was actually a very clever "conspiracy" | Mar 14 16:10 |
_Goblin | Notice of late the "Captain America" type movies getting released...this is not something the government has instructed but it is the film companies capitalizing on peoples patriotism and desire to see the "western morals" served on a poor populas who know no better.....a feel good movie about world domination if you wish.... | Mar 14 16:12 |
_Goblin | Its very similar to a Microsoft view of "Do it our way or not at all" | Mar 14 16:15 |
MinceR | the same could be said about russian foreign policy as well | Mar 14 16:17 |
_Goblin | Very true....but can you blame them? | Mar 14 16:21 |
_Goblin | a liberal superpower becomes the lapdog of others nations wyms. | Mar 14 16:21 |
_Goblin | theres no us and them....this is governments fighting governments....a few people in power. | Mar 14 16:22 |
_Goblin | for example, if you met a Russian in a bar, you wouldn't have an overwhelming desire to sanction them by refusing to serve or speak to them, if they were a decent bloke you'd have a chat and a drink.... | Mar 14 16:23 |
_Goblin | and its this ethos which you extend to all the nations in the world, you realize that its merely people in power having ego battles with each other. | Mar 14 16:24 |
_Goblin | they don't get their hands dirty in war, its all dinners, numbers of troops and battles.... like a game of Risk or Command and Conquer...with the winner getting the biggest ego and remembered in history | Mar 14 16:25 |
MinceR | well, you can't fault every single citizen for everything their government does anyway | Mar 14 16:25 |
_Goblin | completely agree. | Mar 14 16:25 |
_Goblin | as I say this is not about "people" its all about governments. | Mar 14 16:26 |

At the poles of the moon, the temperature never rises above minus 370 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 220 degrees Celsius)." - Now hows that for pure and free of contaminents? | Mar 14 18:05 |

_Goblin | And Europa is an excellent example of how to be environmentally friendly......if you don't have an environment in the first place, are many degrees below zero and orbit a massive gas giant whilst being bombarded by insterstella radiation, then you can't stuff up the environment. | Mar 14 18:09 |

MinceR | apparently animaniacs did it too | Mar 14 18:24 |
_Goblin | thats not something I'd want my name next to in the history books. | Mar 14 18:24 |
_Goblin | Quote: "Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun. It has the third-largest planetary radius and fourth-largest planetary mass in the Solar System." | Mar 14 18:25 |
_Goblin | sounds like my first girlfriend. | Mar 14 18:25 |
MinceR | :> | Mar 14 18:26 |
_Goblin | One good thing about uranus...its got a moon which you can visit...... | Mar 14 18:26 |
_Goblin | Titania.... | Mar 14 18:26 |
MinceR | :D | Mar 14 18:26 |
cubezzz | there was a movie about Uranus but they kept it out of the Title: "Journey to the Seventh Planet" | Mar 14 18:27 |
_Goblin | lol | Mar 14 18:27 |
MinceR | i wonder why | Mar 14 18:27 |
cubezzz | :) | Mar 14 18:27 |
_Goblin | You must admit though I have a point.....would you want to be the first man on Uranus and be known as such for life? | Mar 14 18:27 |
_Goblin | you'd never live it down.... | Mar 14 18:27 |
cubezzz | isn't it a gas planet though? | Mar 14 18:27 |
cubezzz | you can't really land on it | Mar 14 18:27 |
MinceR | i don't think i'd worry that much about a pun | Mar 14 18:28 |
cubezzz | Uranus is very gassy :) | Mar 14 18:28 |
cubezzz | ok, no more stupid jokes | Mar 14 18:28 |
_Goblin | I think you are right... | Mar 14 18:29 |
_Goblin | similar in composition to neptune | Mar 14 18:29 |
_Goblin | apparently | Mar 14 18:29 |
_Goblin | but its got alot of Ice....so maybe you could stand on that if you adopted a surfing type pose. | Mar 14 18:29 |
_Goblin | There we are so you couldn't land on it...merely pass through it...of sorts... | Mar 14 18:30 |
_Goblin | so you could be the first man to enter Uranus.........nope I'm still not liking that next to my name in the history books. | Mar 14 18:31 |
_Goblin | I'll go to Titania thanks | Mar 14 18:31 |
MinceR | you could be the first man to pass through uranus! | Mar 14 18:31 |
_Goblin | true....enter one end and come out the other. | Mar 14 18:31 |
_Goblin | and maybe stop off at Titania. | Mar 14 18:32 |

MinceR | can it shuffle its playlist? | Mar 14 18:36 |
_Goblin | yep... | Mar 14 18:36 |
MinceR | interesting... not many music players can do that :) | Mar 14 18:37 |
_Goblin | you mean shuffle as in randomize? | Mar 14 18:37 |
MinceR | i mean randomize the order of the songs | Mar 14 18:37 |
_Goblin | yep | Mar 14 18:37 |
_Goblin | it can do that... | Mar 14 18:38 |
MinceR | and then let the user change the order, choose where to start playing, etc. | Mar 14 18:38 |
_Goblin | let me just check.... | Mar 14 18:38 |
MinceR | some of them will only be able to randomly walk through the playlist | Mar 14 18:38 |
MinceR | amaroK lets you enable random order but then it doesn't let you change the order | Mar 14 18:38 |
_Goblin | what ive just done: | Mar 14 18:38 |
MinceR | (i _think_ it was amaroK) | Mar 14 18:39 |
_Goblin | Randomized a playlist prior to playing.... | Mar 14 18:39 |
_Goblin | moved around some of the tracks from the random order.... | Mar 14 18:39 |
_Goblin | I can start anywhere in the playlist and it will go until the end | Mar 14 18:39 |
MinceR | nice | Mar 14 18:39 |
_Goblin | .....never needed that feature myself so I had to check... | Mar 14 18:39 |
MinceR | finally an alternative to xmms/bmp/audacious :> | Mar 14 18:39 |
MinceR | i use it often | Mar 14 18:39 |
_Goblin | only really listen to podcasts and a few audiobooks that I can't be bothered to read.... | Mar 14 18:40 |
MinceR | throw in a lot of songs, randomize them, move the one i want to hear first to first place, start playing | Mar 14 18:40 |
_Goblin | yep it does that... | Mar 14 18:40 |
MinceR | maybe move some of them down to have them play again | Mar 14 18:40 |

DaemonFC | He blames the Federal Reserve System for fast food prices averaging a 5-6% annual rate of inflation. | Mar 14 19:38 |
DaemonFC | If that's true, then why is inflation far less than that at the grocery store? | Mar 14 19:39 |
DaemonFC | It is true that people's wages are having a hard time beating overall inflation. | Mar 14 19:39 |
DaemonFC | Most people are working for less every year because inflation will be 2-3% and they might get a 1% raise. | Mar 14 19:39 |

DaemonFC | Well, the right-wing whackadoodles go apeshit whenever a cable company picks up any news channel that doesn't have "Fox" in the name. | Mar 14 22:23 |
DaemonFC | I'd love to see them pick up more news channels if only for that reason. | Mar 14 22:23 |
DaemonFC | I don't subscribe to cable, though, because it's a waste of money. I ditched it years ago when I realized I was paying over $120 a month just for the cable TV and I was down to two shows that I could stream anyway. | Mar 14 22:23 |
DaemonFC | 30 years ago, your cable bill was less than $40 a month, there were no "boxes" to rent, and you got the movie channels with that. Now you pay three times that, there's never anything good on, and the cost goes up every year at 5-6 times the general rate of inflation. | Mar 14 22:23 |
DaemonFC | In Comcast's case, they're basically using the money to finance political graft and give $10 internet connections to everyone with a child on free or reduced price school lunches. Really? People with kids on reduced price lunches aren't necessarily even what you'd call poor. Your household can be up to 185% of the FPL for the reduced price lunch program. For a family of four, that is over $44,000 a year. The biggest reason to sign up for it is so | Mar 14 22:23 |
DaemonFC | you can get Comcast cable internet and make me pay for it. | Mar 14 22:23 |

DaemonFC | "The Early Random PRNG in iOS 7 is surprisingly weak," said Tarjei Mandt senior security researcher at Azimuth Security. "The one in iOS 6 is better because this one is deterministic and trivial to brute force. All the mitigations deployed by the iOS kernel essentially depend on the robustness of the Early Random PRNG," Mandt said. "It must provide sufficient entropy and non-predictable output." | Mar 15 05:36 |
DaemonFC | Could this be part of their collaboration with the NSA? | Mar 15 05:36 |
Sosumi | what makes you think that is the NSA? | Mar 15 06:26 |
Sosumi | why not the CIA | Mar 15 06:26 |

Sosumi | well yes | Mar 15 13:05 |
cubezzz | "Stealing PDP-10 computer time from Computer Center Corp to write BASIC" | Mar 15 13:06 |
cubezzz | that's how it all started | Mar 15 13:06 |
Sosumi | who else would dump m$ unix to develop its own standard, NT, to ensure that none of the programs would be compatible with other unix systems | Mar 15 13:07 |
Sosumi | was it xenix? | Mar 15 13:07 |
cubezzz | Xenix was derived from Unix v7, and yes it's a giant step backwards | Mar 15 13:07 |
cubezzz | instead of getting the source code for all device drivers, compilers, user programs you got binaries only | Mar 15 13:08 |
cubezzz | Microsoft didn't exactly dump Unix, but they corrupted it and closed it off | Mar 15 13:09 |
Sosumi | ho I wasn't looking at the the irc windows | Mar 15 13:09 |
Sosumi | I meant it as "who else but m$" in the sense of developing their own standard | Mar 15 13:10 |
Sosumi | and confine everything to their platform | Mar 15 13:10 |
cubezzz | Blame Cutler for that, he was a Unix hater | Mar 15 13:12 |
Sosumi | but it was M$ who hired him from dec | Mar 15 13:13 |
Sosumi | and NT is hardly, really, hardly a VMS replacement | Mar 15 13:13 |
Sosumi | and talking of vms | Mar 15 13:14 |
Sosumi | hp would do great if they ported openvms to x86 | Mar 15 13:14 |
Sosumi | instead of having it confined to the now dead itanium | Mar 15 13:14 |
cubezzz | as much as I liked DEC I can't get too excited about OpenVMS | Mar 15 13:18 |
cubezzz | it's in the same category as Ultrix, VM/SP, and other closed source OSes | Mar 15 13:19 |
cubezzz | and OpenVMS had bugs, just like everything else | Mar 15 13:24 |

cubezzz | if I want to play around with something different, I'll run Haiku or Plan 9 | Mar 15 13:29 |
cubezzz | also Unix was better than OpenVMS in several ways | Mar 15 13:31 |
cubezzz | more open, a lot cheaper and more responsive | Mar 15 13:32 |
MinceR | geekings | Mar 15 13:34 |
MinceR | vms is baroque | Mar 15 13:34 |
MinceR | nt, even more so | Mar 15 13:34 |
cubezzz | the old IBM OSes are worth a look | Mar 15 13:35 |
cubezzz | pre-VM/SP, they were basically open source | Mar 15 13:36 |
cubezzz | stuff like OS/360-MVT, or VM/370 | Mar 15 13:37 |
cubezzz | on the DEC side I think the source for RT-11 is kicking around | Mar 15 13:38 |
cubezzz | in a way, things could have turned out better than they did | Mar 15 13:44 |
cubezzz | high schools should have got unix source code, but in the old days PDPs were just too expensive | Mar 15 13:45 |
Sosumi | I see | Mar 15 14:19 |
Sosumi | but I meant it into a way of pressuring ibm and red hat | Mar 15 14:20 |
Sosumi | with another OS readily available | Mar 15 14:20 |
Sosumi | instead of one that at the moment seems dead | Mar 15 14:21 |
Sosumi | also, does't the german stock exchange use openvms? | Mar 15 14:21 |
Sosumi | no idea about the german | Mar 15 14:22 |
Sosumi | but the koreans are using it | Mar 15 14:22 |
Sosumi | and so do the australians | Mar 15 14:22 |
cubezzz | IBM has z/OS and Linux for their mainframes | Mar 15 14:24 |
Sosumi | and AIX | Mar 15 14:25 |
cubezzz | not everyone is going to want the source code for a given OS, some don't care | Mar 15 14:25 |
cubezzz | personally, I want source code :) | Mar 15 14:25 |
cubezzz | with enough $$$ you can probably get the OpenVMS source | Mar 15 14:26 |
Sosumi | I have no use for vms | Mar 15 14:26 |
Sosumi | but keeping it as a competitor | Mar 15 14:26 |
Sosumi | would probably be better in the long run | Mar 15 14:27 |
cubezzz | outside of my own personal philosophy, as long as different operating systems can interoperate using open standards, it's not overly-critical which operating system they use | Mar 15 14:34 |
Sosumi | yes | Mar 15 14:36 |
cubezzz | I think that most OSes have accumulated a lot of cruft over time, and there's nothing really universal or elegant that's modern | Mar 15 14:36 |
Sosumi | that is true | Mar 15 14:36 |
cubezzz | if someone really wanted to, they can go back to the original engineering diagrams of a PDP-11/45 (a common Unix box) and learn everything about it | Mar 15 14:51 |
cubezzz | there's no way for Microsoft or anyone else putting the Genie back in the bottle | Mar 15 14:53 |
