DaemonFCSomeone noticed me posting on their forum and changed my member status to "Apple Basher". I told them, "thank you".Mar 09 01:29
DaemonFCSomeone was talking to me about when I worked at Walmart.Mar 09 01:31
DaemonFCThey 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
DaemonFCI 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

DaemonFCOf course, whether there's spyware for iThings or not depends on that which we call spyware.Mar 09 01:53
DaemonFCMost 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
DaemonFCBoth 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
DaemonFCIn 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
DaemonFCYou'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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCThere 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
DaemonFCDo you really want them to know this stuff?Mar 09 01:53
DaemonFCThe 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
Sosumippl use tvs to watch moviesMar 09 17:36
Sosumimany from what I've seen have already relegated all their computing to tabletsMar 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
Sosumithe only desktop market that still stays afloat is the gaming pcMar 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

Sosumiyou'll no longer fall for the entrapments of propagandaMar 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

Sosumifor possible data retrieval at a car repair shopMar 09 22:10
DaemonFCThen 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
Sosumior on those newer models, actually transmit the dataMar 09 22:10
DaemonFCI've seen plenty of people with that light on where they say "Yeah, the shop never reset it.".Mar 09 22:10
Sosumino ideaMar 09 22:10
Sosumimine doesn't do any of thatMar 09 22:10
DaemonFCThis car is the newest I've owned. It's a 1996.Mar 09 22:11
DaemonFCSo it does have OBD-II.Mar 09 22:11
Sosumimine's just a renault 21 turbo from 1991Mar 09 22:11
DaemonFCThat was the first year the federal government mandated that.Mar 09 22:11
DaemonFCSome 1995s have them.Mar 09 22:11

DaemonFCA 1995 Chevy Lumina, a 1995 Chevy Corsica, a 1995 Ford Taurus....Mar 09 22:12
DaemonFCPeople get rid of their cars when there's plenty of life left on them.Mar 09 22:12
DaemonFCThey just want something newer, which is ridiculous.Mar 09 22:12
DaemonFCIf it's not broke, don't fix it.Mar 09 22:13

Sosumisince it was given free to meMar 09 22:13
DaemonFCI paid $2,200 for mine.Mar 09 22:22
DaemonFCConsidering what used car prices are up to, that's not a bad deal.Mar 09 22:23
DaemonFCAs recently as 2005, $2,000 got you a decent 10 year old car with about 100,000 miles on it.Mar 09 22:23

MinceRand tailgating is the national sportMar 09 22:46
DaemonFCIt won't improve their behavior, but it feels good.Mar 09 22:46
MinceRpeople driving shitty expensive german cars believe the rules don't apply to themMar 09 22:46
MinceRthe police don't think the rules apply to themMar 09 22:46

DaemonFCCAFE killed the Crown Vic.Mar 09 22:48
DaemonFCIf they sold my car today, there's be a gas guzzler tax on it.Mar 09 22:48

MinceRmaybe because it _is_ a gas guzzler? :>Mar 09 22:49
MinceRor the tax isn't dependent on mileage? :>Mar 09 22:49
DaemonFCit's whatever the government declares to be a gas guzzlerMar 09 22:49
DaemonFCI think the standard is 22.5 mpg now.Mar 09 22:50
DaemonFCThey increase the fine by every 1 mpg you get under that.Mar 09 22:50
DaemonFCMinceR: Mine is EPA rated for 17 mpg combined city/highway.Mar 09 22:51
MinceRthere you go, it's a gas guzzler :>Mar 09 22:51

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

abeNd-orgSosumi despite your perfect html5 world, some stuff still uses flash on the internet, especially when it comes to end user applicationsMar 10 20:47

Sosumireal end user applications of the sort of important "stuff"Mar 10 20:49

abeNd-orgradio 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 existMar 10 20:53
MinceR205215 < 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-orgflash should die, but it isnt, & hasntMar 10 20:53
MinceRi suppose a buffer overflow or similar vulnerability could lead to execution of arbitrary code :>Mar 10 20:53
abeNd-orgos2 should die, but there is still plenty of it out there, sco openserver should die, but there is still plenty of it out thereMar 10 20:53
Sosumifunnily how you immediately declared ti has my html5 utopiaMar 10 20:54
MinceRhow 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
Sosumiwhen in fact html5 has been infected with drm a while agoMar 10 20:54
Sosumiso, far from being utopicMar 10 20:55
abeNd-orgi call it as the way you speak there is nothing in the universe using flashMar 10 20:57
MinceRsites 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
Sosuminever intended to make it sound that wayMar 10 20:58
Sosumilike there is "nothing using flash"Mar 10 20:58
Sosumiplus, flash is deprecated on gnu/linux and it is a broken glass jar poorly fixed with duct tape and camel spitMar 10 20:59
abeNd-orgso 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 problemsMar 10 20:59
Sosumiso obviously that I'm all for replacing itMar 10 20:59
abeNd-orgyeah, well, it still exists, so again, touch cookiesMar 10 20:59
abeNd-orgtoughMar 10 21:00
abeNd-orgshould it? no, does it? yesMar 10 21:00
MinceRgetting rid of flash is the way to fix the issue.Mar 10 21:01
abeNd-orgok, so where is a usable replacement, & why is it that places like radio station websites arent using it yet?Mar 10 21:01
MinceRthere were usable replacements ever since video player applications could stream over httpMar 10 21:03
MinceRwebsites aren't using them because people are stupid.Mar 10 21:03
SosumiI have no idea of what radio stations you're talking aboutMar 10 21:03
Sosumibut the one I know provide a file that can be opened through vlcMar 10 21:04
Sosumior even itunesMar 10 21:04
Sosumifor streamingMar 10 21:04
Sosumimuch betterMar 10 21:04
Sosumiand it works with mobile devicesMar 10 21:04
Sosumisince flash is dead on android tooMar 10 21:04
MinceR(and most likely even an "html5" video element could be used in such a way)Mar 10 21:05
abeNd-orgsure, 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 streamingMar 10 21:05
MinceRyou underestimate the popularity of vlc :>Mar 10 21:05
Sosumithat is why those humans deserve all the bag of hurt they get by installing flashMar 10 21:05
MinceRalso, regardless of your enthusiasm for flash, the fact is adobe is killing support for it.Mar 10 21:06
Sosumihopefully, they'll apreciate to know better next timeMar 10 21:06
abeNd-org& you underestimate the corporate worldMar 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
DaemonFCMinceR: Real doesn't have their own codecs anymore.Mar 10 21:07
abeNd-orgsure, replacing it with adobe airMar 10 21:07
DaemonFCJust a container format that hosts MPEG-4.Mar 10 21:07
MinceRthey killed adobe air earlierMar 10 21:07
abeNd-orgon linux sureMar 10 21:07
MinceRand it failed anywayMar 10 21:07
abeNd-orgalive & well on windowsMar 10 21:07
MinceRi'm curious of your corporate environment where adobe air is "alive & well"Mar 10 21:07
MinceRi'm pretty sure people aren't even aware of it in most "corporate environment"sMar 10 21:08
SosumiI thought that everyone hated airMar 10 21:09
Sosumias much as they hated twilightMar 10 21:09
Sosumior silverlightMar 10 21:09
abeNd-orgfrom what i remember most of the people in this channel are just students, or have only worked in one IT environment in their livesMar 10 21:09
MinceRthen you "remember" it wrongMar 10 21:10
SosumiI'm guilty for studentMar 10 21:10
abeNd-orgyea, silverlight, nightmare, ms is still pushing it for lync/sccm/etc managementMar 10 21:10
MinceRyeah, msft pretty much gave up on silverlightMar 10 21:10
MinceRages agoMar 10 21:10
abeNd-orgyea, they did, but for the current mgmt consoles of some of their major server programs it is still thereMar 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
cubezzzthat 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
cubezzzso it's a rasterized display?Mar 11 04:42
cubezzzif so, it's one of the earliest onesMar 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
cubezzzthat's tinyMar 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
cubezzzI guess that would be assembly language only then?Mar 11 04:46
cubezzzah I seeMar 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
cubezzzinterestingMar 11 04:48
cubezzzI've dabbled with early DEC computers a bit, but not the LINCMar 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
cubezzzdid you ever work on a PDP-4?Mar 11 04:50
cubezzzthat's about the same eraMar 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
cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/pdp-4-trackball.pngMar 11 04:50
msb_LINC, PDP-8, LINC-8, PDP-12, PDP-6, PDP-10.Mar 11 04:51

cubezzzwell before my time, but interestingMar 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

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
cubezzzreminds me a bit of Commodore PETMar 11 05:01
cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/superpet-apl2.pngMar 11 05:01
cubezzzthe PET had 8x8 characters though, so a bit more resolution than 4x6 :)Mar 11 05:03
cubezzzwikipedia says white or yellow phosphor, but those pics showed greenMar 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
cubezzzRK05?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
cubezzzwhat 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 fastMar 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
cubezzzyou 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
cubezzzsome work I did on tops-20:Mar 11 05:23
cubezzzhttp://apl.maxhost.org/apl-tops-20.txtMar 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
cubezzzwell tops-20 was the OS for DECSystem-20Mar 11 05:25
cubezzznot sure if that was the successor to PDP-10 thoughMar 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
cubezzzI guess it's still a PDP-10 thoughMar 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
cubezzzI think some of the DECSystem-20's had 1024 kilowords of ramMar 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
cubezzzyes, pretty hefty :)Mar 11 05:32
cubezzzplus it had ethernet which is niceMar 11 05:34
msb_Better than RS-232!Mar 11 05:34
cubezzzthree-phase power, not something for the houseMar 11 05:35
cubezzzway too bigMar 11 05:35
msb_Cables under the floor.Mar 11 05:35
cubezzzI think there's a lot of source code kicking around though, and there's a pretty good emulator for itMar 11 05:36
msb_Eventually a Pentium PC beat it all to hell.  Such is the power of photolithography.Mar 11 05:36
cubezzzyou be surprised now much old stuff is open source nowMar 11 05:36
cubezzzx86 doesn't rule everythingMar 11 05:37
cubezzzIBM still makes mainframes :)Mar 11 05:37
msb_Yeah, but what do they have inside 'em?Mar 11 05:37

msb_Often running Linux.Mar 11 05:38

cubezzzso before that, maybeMar 11 05:57
msb_I think it was SunView.Mar 11 05:57
cubezzzremember, everyone got behind X around 1986 or soMar 11 05:58
cubezzzso before 1986 it's quite possible that they used something elseMar 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
cubezzzhere's some history of X:Mar 11 05:59
cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/history-of-x.txtMar 11 05:59
cubezzzXerox 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
cubezzzyeah, I think X is importantMar 11 06:02
cubezzzdevice 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
cubezzzwell redhat had there redhat-config-xfree86 programMar 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
cubezzzin the somewhat olden days there was a package called XFree86-toolsMar 11 06:07
cubezzzso whatever was in thatMar 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
cubezzzit's better to understand the text files thoughMar 11 06:09
cubezzzrather than rely on some gui thingamajigMar 11 06:10
msb_Well, yeah, I had to hack the X config files.Mar 11 06:10
cubezzzok, now I remember what I used to do...Mar 11 06:11
cubezzzXfree86 -configureMar 11 06:11
cubezzzthat 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
cubezzzwell the source is there, but it's hard to absorb all of it :)Mar 11 06:12
cubezzzlearning everything about X is wading into deep waterMar 11 06:13
cubezzza lot of the young uns don't understand X too wellMar 11 06:13
msb_it was SaX2!  or maybe SaX or SaX3Mar 11 06:14
msb_a lot of the old uns don't either!Mar 11 06:14
cubezzzno one is saying learn the X protocol 100%, but some macro-level understanding is goodMar 11 06:14
msb_No doubt.Mar 11 06:15
msb_Hey, it gives us a hobby!Mar 11 06:16
cubezzzScheifler "borrowed" a lot of W code for XMar 11 06:18
cubezzzso MIT, DEC, IBM got together and helped build up XMar 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
*sebsebseb has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)Mar 11 06:21

msb_Then I worked at a Stanford physics lab, that's where I used the Suns.Mar 11 06:24
cubezzzyeah there was Stanford LispMar 11 06:25
cubezzzthen MACLISPMar 11 06:26
msb_Even some kind of Sun 386s, that ran Unix.  They were kinda crashy.Mar 11 06:26
cubezzzand 4.3BSD had a lisp interpreterMar 11 06:26
cubezzzI was never a fan thoughMar 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
cubezzzand early Sun's did run W, IMar 11 06:27
cubezzzI'm just reading up on thatMar 11 06:27
msb_It was probably smarter than our previous president "W".Mar 11 06:28
cubezzzdon't malign the letter :)Mar 11 06:28

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
cubezzzwhy 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
cubezzzyeah I don't think we can destroy galaxies :)Mar 11 06:52
cubezzzwe 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
cubezzzI never got mc working over ssh quite rightMar 11 06:55
msb_Ooh yeah!  Red Planet 2000Mar 11 06:56
cubezzzesc 0 works thoughMar 11 06:57
cubezzzthen esc esc to get out of a menuMar 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

DaemonFCOne 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
DaemonFCpennies on the dollar.Mar 11 15:48
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCMy 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

DaemonFCI posted this on Amazon in regard to Apple and Microsoft's patent trolling of Android:Mar 11 19:57
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCEven 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
DaemonFCIt 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
DaemonFCThey 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
DaemonFCThis 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

cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/cw-1972-may-03.tar.gzMar 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
cubezzzhow much vitamin C should we per day?Mar 11 20:28
cubezzzshould we takeMar 11 20:29
msb__3 metric tonsMar 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
cubezzzyeah it's hard to know if your getting enough nutrition from the food you eatMar 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

MinceRor modern medicine.Mar 11 21:51
msb__Of course, two different poisons.Mar 11 21:51
MinceRalso, apparently thiomersal was already phased out of many vaccinesMar 11 21:51
MinceReven though there's no convincing evidence about the harmMar 11 21:51
MinceRand pretty much everything is a poison, in the right doseMar 11 21:52
MinceRso dosage _is_ importantMar 11 21:52
MinceRfor example, oxygen can be poisonous at too high doses, but try living without itMar 11 21:52
MinceRas 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
MinceRapparently in the case of O2, pressure is important as well as concentrationMar 11 21:53

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

Sosumigiven the amount of hardware that gets dumped each yearMar 12 19:43
Sosumispecially from the gamer croudMar 12 19:43
Sosumi*crowdMar 12 19:44
Sosumieveryone and you could always get cheap upgradesMar 12 19:44
Sosumiand a p3 is ancientMar 12 19:45
Sosumispecially a 500MhzMar 12 19:45
Sosumiand the thing is just not about the upgrade treadmillMar 12 19:47
Sosumibut as the complexity of the software increases so does the need for faster hardwareMar 12 19:48
Sosumiand I'm in doubtMar 12 19:48
Sosumifor things like a server, doesn't the current version of fedora run on a p3?Mar 12 19:49
cubezzzread Vance Packard "The Waste Makers" and you might change your mindMar 12 19:49
MinceReven the complexity of the data increases :>Mar 12 19:49
Sosumihardly, when I buy faster hardware is mostly because I outgrew what I hadMar 12 19:50
cubezzzI found newer Fedora less reliable to be honestMar 12 19:50
MinceRand that of websites, unfortunatelyMar 12 19:50
cubezzzwell badly designed web designs is a poor excuse Mar 12 19:50
cubezzzwe live in a society of waste, it's well over the topMar 12 19:52
Sosumibut that waste brings progress and further advancementMar 12 19:52
Sosumiwhat could be considered wasteMar 12 19:53
cubezzzewaste, the world's full of itMar 12 19:54
Sosumiis the use and trow away techMar 12 19:54
Sosumilike those prebuilt computers with no standard partsMar 12 19:54
cubezzzplastics, chip fab, all need highly caustic chemicals Mar 12 19:54
cubezzzwhich end up in your soilMar 12 19:55
cubezzzI'm merely suggesting cutting back on thatMar 12 19:55
cubezzzwell I would suggest not buying bic-lighter computers :)Mar 12 19:57
Sosumithe biggest factor contributing to that is consumer techMar 12 19:57
SosumiI don't see how it'd be possible to cut on thatMar 12 19:58
Sosumippl want crap, manufacturers give them crapMar 12 19:59
MinceRmanufacturers also make crap that nobody wantsMar 12 19:59
MinceRi.e. winblows phone phonesMar 12 19:59
cubezzzI don't think people really want crap, I think they just aren't thinking about itMar 12 19:59
SosumiI'm certainly not the one buying a big tv totally overblown colorsMar 12 20:00
MinceRpeople want crap so much they're willing to pay more for worseMar 12 20:00
MinceRfor example, for hypePhonesMar 12 20:00
SosumihypePhones, bang & ollufsen, etcMar 12 20:01
cubezzzI like getting an old computer and fixing it upMar 12 20:01
Sosumifit into the model of a huge price premium just for the sake of exclusivityMar 12 20:01
Sosumiand "perceived value"Mar 12 20:02
cubezzz"The Hidden Persauders" 1957 :)Mar 12 20:02
cubezzzalso by Vance PackardMar 12 20:02
SosumiBernays mentioned that on his book Propaganda, messiah complex msb__Mar 12 20:02
cubezzzSun Microsystems had a lot of very interesting ideas to make computers more reliableMar 12 20:03
Sosumi"had"Mar 12 20:03
SosumiI'm still longing for a new sparc station or powerstationMar 12 20:03
cubezzzI think Sun Oracle still sell serversMar 12 20:04
cubezzzno idea what the prices are, I assume big $$$Mar 12 20:04
Sosumiyes, just serversMar 12 20:04
cubezzzglibc is bloated tooMar 12 20:06
cubezzzhence the creation of dietlibcMar 12 20:09
cubezzzthe 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
MinceRone problem with the Eternal Distro is that at some point some packages would cease to receive security updatesMar 12 20:15
MinceRfrom upstreamMar 12 20:15
cubezzz2.11BSD still gets patchesMar 12 20:19
cubezzzbut that doesn't run on actual hardware in my caseMar 12 20:20
cubezzzsome packages in openbsd are from the 90'sMar 12 20:22
cubezzzsome stuff gets orphaned, the creator loses interest, it happensMar 12 20:25
MinceRdoes it update applications and libraries that are 4 or more stable major releases ahead of what it ships? :>Mar 12 20:28
MinceRat 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
MinceRthere's only so many releases they can maintain simultaneouslyMar 12 20:29

cubezzzwell, I wanted to experiment and improve my X window system knowledgeMar 12 22:53
cubezzzplus mwm is motif based so... a chance to learn more about motifMar 12 22:54
MinceRa chance to learn why nobody uses motif anymore :>Mar 12 22:54

MinceRi haven't looked at mwm source yetMar 12 22:57
MinceRi'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

MinceRthere's a separate xsel package on debianMar 12 23:21

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Mar 13 18:23
DaemonFCUnlike 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
DaemonFCIn 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCOn 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

sebsebseb_MinceR: DaemonFC Sosumi  this SaturdayMar 13 21:21
sebsebseb_I got the oppertunity to uhmmMar 13 21:21
sebsebseb_promote openSUSE with KDE to teh general public hmmMar 13 21:21
MinceRewMar 13 21:21
sebsebseb_orMar 13 21:21
sebsebseb_Ubuntu with UNityMar 13 21:21
sebsebseb_orMar 13 21:21
sebsebseb_Mint with CinnamonMar 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 etcMar 13 21:22
Sosumimint with cinnamon for the lesser evilMar 13 21:22
sebsebseb_Sosumi: yeah or Ubuntu with UNity ?Mar 13 21:22
Sosumihasn't Markie Shutleworm kind of fallen out of favor?Mar 13 21:23
sebsebseb_well yes and noMar 13 21:23
sebsebseb_,but htis event is aimed at general publicMar 13 21:23
sebsebseb_not that technical peopleMar 13 21:23
sebsebseb_the idea is they pick an interface rather htan a distroMar 13 21:23
sebsebseb_or mainly  pick something by interfaceMar 13 21:23
SosumiI seeMar 13 21:23
Sosumithen it is a tie between mint and ubuntuMar 13 21:24
sebsebseb_they  will have the same kind of plymouth themeMar 13 21:24
sebsebseb_and same kind of addiontal apps mainlyMar 13 21:24
sebsebseb_codecs etcMar 13 21:24
sebsebseb_Sosumi: yeah openSUSE pftMar 13 21:25
sebsebseb_plenty of other distros that do KDE goodMar 13 21:25
sebsebseb_oh and Yast that aparnatly is so good uhmmm,  there's that nice control centre in Magiea and suchMar 13 21:25
SosumiDaemonFC, I've been using public transportation as of late,Mar 13 21:25
MinceRyeah, yast is so goodMar 13 21:25
sebsebseb_MinceR: yeah that's sarcasm?Mar 13 21:26
MinceRfor example, when i start yast from the icewm menu, it asks for the password and then does nothingMar 13 21:26
sebsebseb_like saying oh, Yast is so amazing? when it's not?Mar 13 21:26
MinceRand when i start it from rxvt-native, the whole screen falls apartMar 13 21:26
Sosumiwith my current schedule, there is no point and I get to my destination way faster without the need to find a parking spotMar 13 21:26
MinceRafaict it's rather ill-behavedMar 13 21:26
sebsebseb_well at least the video that's going to be used for the eventMar 13 21:26
sebsebseb_makes it nice and clear in the open suse reviewMar 13 21:26
MinceRthen again, that's what i generally find with Microsoft Linux, SuSE EditionMar 13 21:26
sebsebseb_that it's more for power usersMar 13 21:26
sebsebseb_that should put some peope off I guess :DMar 13 21:26
sebsebseb_and KDE is all gekey etcMar 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 distrosMar 13 21:27
SosumiKDE is cool, could be a lot betterMar 13 21:27
sebsebseb_means I can talk to people to then :D about stuffMar 13 21:27
MinceRkde is not geekyMar 13 21:27
Sosumibut still kewlMar 13 21:27
Sosumialso nothing geeky about itMar 13 21:27
DaemonFCThe 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 alongMar 13 21:28
Sosumiwant to go geeky? just use the terminalMar 13 21:28
sebsebseb_Sosumi: MinceR  KDE looks like WIndows,but hten is realy geeky once trying to customise and such in my experienceMar 13 21:28
sebsebseb_get in a mess to  moving icons around and suchMar 13 21:28
MinceRi mean kde seems to be aimed at non-geeky users, with lots of eye candy and little flexibilityMar 13 21:28
MinceRsince 4.xMar 13 21:28
sebsebseb_MinceR:  I am not sure about thatMar 13 21:28
MinceRsure, it's not gnome3 :>Mar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_,but I Think what I just put still applysMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_once you start doing something more than just the basicsMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_with KDEMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_get in a messMar 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 KDEMar 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 thatMar 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 KDEMar 13 21:30
sebsebseb_for eventMar 13 21:30
MinceRstuff 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
MinceRlike openbox and the lxde panelMar 13 21:31
MinceRoh, 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
MinceRstuff like KDE refusing to configure itself the way you want toMar 13 21:31
sebsebseb_someone else can do suse a bitMar 13 21:32
MinceRor forgetting its settings :>Mar 13 21:32
*sebsebseb_ appanratly is good at marketing stuff like thisMar 13 21:32
sebsebseb_I guess give peple osme perosnal opinons and such toMar 13 21:32
sebsebseb_and then let them decideMar 13 21:32
sebsebseb_MinceR: Sosumi however what got me started chatting about all this again is uhmmMar 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 itMar 13 21:33
sebsebseb_people who may find it useful Mar 13 21:33
sebsebseb_or well some of them anywayMar 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 etcMar 13 21:33
sebsebseb_to geekyMar 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 listMar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_I Mean if I do that as wel, some  may go to the event, and pick openSUSE uhMar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_as wellMar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_openSUSE defiently has nice merchandice, but I woudn'treally recommend it as a distro to someoneMar 13 21:34
MinceRneither would iMar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_KDE can run in plenty of other distros and nicelyMar 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 reallyMar 13 21:36
sebsebseb_yast isn't neededMar 13 21:36
sebsebseb_MinceR: also to promote  LInux to people from my other group,  well it's a speaking group :dMar 13 21:36
sebsebseb_MinceR: so I don'treally ned them to come to an event such as this one on SaturdayMar 13 21:36
sebsebseb_that's what I am thinkingMar 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 evenMar 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 chooseMar 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 uhMar 13 21:38
sebsebseb_MinceR: comments?Mar 13 21:40
MinceRmehMar 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 sessionsMar 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 yeahMar 13 21:42
sebsebseb_I tried to get  Mint out before sort of, and yeahMar 13 21:43
sebsebseb_MinceR:  38 Facebook likes the other day I ThinkMar 13 21:44
sebsebseb_MinceR: 54 when I lookd ealrierMar 13 21:44
sebsebseb_ok so  one of htose is mine, one is the other organtier, and maybe another one or two as wellMar 13 21:44
sebsebseb_,but I guess it means 50 "other" people liked the event otMar 13 21:44
sebsebseb_MinceR:  and  not sure how well the Google adveritsing is working or notMar 13 21:44
sebsebseb_,but been coming up quite a lot apparnatlyMar 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
Sosumijust see if someone else gets opensusieMar 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
SosumiyesMar 13 21:47
sebsebseb_Sosumi: yep exactly that's what I am thinkingMar 13 21:47
Sosumiso that you get either mint or ubuntuMar 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 :dMar 13 21:48
Sosumiwell, if that other ppl get ubuntu and/or mintMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_some time Mar 13 21:48
Sosumiall you'll be left is with opensusieMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_Sosumi: ,but if they go to eventMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_they   may go to opensue or something  maybe some of them I don't knowMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_Sosumi: the three of htem will be togehter on the demo pc'sMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_Sosumi: ,but if I mainly promote Ubuntu and MintMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_then probably not that many will go with opensuse :DMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_they will want a Mint and Ubuntu remaster or both :)Mar 13 21:49
SosumiokMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_and openSUSE will be like hMar 13 21:49
Sosumigood thenMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_ehMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_plus I think the video makes it seem that opensuse is for power users quite technical etcMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_Sosumi: yeah and the openSUSE guy uhmmMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_I am not htere to promtoe openSUSE that's my whole pointMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_I would have been there promoting Mageia properly and GNOME 3, but they out voted that soMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_at lest that and Fedora is mentioned in hand out thoughMar 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 standMar 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 wellMar 13 21:51
SosumigoodMar 13 21:51
Sosumibut I don't see the point in promoting gnome3Mar 13 21:52
sebsebseb_,ut would have liked toh ave done Mgaeia properly,  andGNOME 3, but htey out voted that soMar 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 htemMar 13 21:52
sebsebseb_or might htink, oh that's interesitng, I want to know moreMar 13 21:52

DaemonFCWatching Star Trek: First Contact on Blu Ray.Mar 14 00:18
DaemonFCMom 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
DaemonFCA 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
DaemonFCI 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

_GoblinArea 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 USMar 14 20:08
_Goblinthere 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
_Goblinthe more the government denied, the more people thought they were covering up....it was actually a very clever "conspiracy"Mar 14 20:10
_GoblinNotice 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

_GoblinAnd 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

DaemonFCWell, 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
DaemonFCI'd love to see them pick up more news channels if only for that reason.Mar 15 02:23
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFC30 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
DaemonFCIn 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 soMar 15 02:23
DaemonFCyou can get Comcast cable internet and make me pay for it. Mar 15 02:23

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 09:36

DaemonFCBoth 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

DaemonFCThere 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
DaemonFCDo you really want them to know this stuff?Mar 09 01:54
DaemonFCThe 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
Sosumippl use tvs to watch moviesMar 09 17:36

Sosumithe only desktop market that still stays afloat is the gaming pcMar 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

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

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_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_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
cubezzzthat 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
cubezzzso it's a rasterized display?Mar 11 04:43
cubezzzif so, it's one of the earliest onesMar 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
cubezzzthat's tinyMar 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
cubezzzI guess that would be assembly language only then?Mar 11 04:47
cubezzzah I seeMar 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
cubezzzinterestingMar 11 04:48
cubezzzI've dabbled with early DEC computers a bit, but not the LINCMar 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
cubezzzdid you ever work on a PDP-4?Mar 11 04:50
cubezzzthat's about the same eraMar 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
cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/pdp-4-trackball.pngMar 11 04:51

cubezzzwell before my time, but interestingMar 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

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
cubezzzreminds me a bit of Commodore PETMar 11 05:01
cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/superpet-apl2.pngMar 11 05:02
cubezzzthe PET had 8x8 characters though, so a bit more resolution than 4x6 :)Mar 11 05:04
cubezzzwikipedia says white or yellow phosphor, but those pics showed greenMar 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
cubezzzRK05?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
cubezzzwhat 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 fastMar 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
cubezzzyou 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
cubezzzsome work I did on tops-20:Mar 11 05:23
cubezzzhttp://apl.maxhost.org/apl-tops-20.txtMar 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
cubezzzwell tops-20 was the OS for DECSystem-20Mar 11 05:25
cubezzznot sure if that was the successor to PDP-10 thoughMar 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
cubezzzI guess it's still a PDP-10 thoughMar 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
cubezzzI think some of the DECSystem-20's had 1024 kilowords of ramMar 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
cubezzzyes, pretty hefty :)Mar 11 05:32
cubezzzplus it had ethernet which is niceMar 11 05:34
msb_Better than RS-232!Mar 11 05:35
cubezzzthree-phase power, not something for the houseMar 11 05:35
cubezzzway too bigMar 11 05:35
msb_Cables under the floor.Mar 11 05:36
cubezzzI think there's a lot of source code kicking around though, and there's a pretty good emulator for itMar 11 05:36
msb_Eventually a Pentium PC beat it all to hell.  Such is the power of photolithography.Mar 11 05:37

cubezzzx86 doesn't rule everythingMar 11 05:37
cubezzzIBM 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
cubezzzit's z10 these daysMar 11 05:39
msb_Proprietary IBM CPU?Mar 11 05:39
cubezzzlinux yes, but not x86Mar 11 05:39
cubezzzyeah it's an IBM microprocessor, came in around 2008Mar 11 05:40
msb_Didn't IBM contribute a billion dollars to improving Linux some years back?  Mar 11 05:42
cubezzzsome of the supercomputers are intel xeon thoughMar 11 05:42

msb_But didn't it have its own GUI before X?Mar 11 05:55
cubezzzmaybe really early on there was, not positive about thatMar 11 05:57
msb_"GUI environments bundled with earlier versions of SunOS included SunTools (later SunView)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunOS#User_interfaceMar 11 05:58

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
cubezzzwell redhat had there redhat-config-xfree86 programMar 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
cubezzzin the somewhat olden days there was a package called XFree86-toolsMar 11 06:08
cubezzzso whatever was in thatMar 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
cubezzzit's better to understand the text files thoughMar 11 06:10
cubezzzrather than rely on some gui thingamajigMar 11 06:10
msb_Well, yeah, I had to hack the X config files.Mar 11 06:10
cubezzzok, now I remember what I used to do...Mar 11 06:11
cubezzzXfree86 -configureMar 11 06:11
cubezzzthat 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
cubezzzwell the source is there, but it's hard to absorb all of it :)Mar 11 06:13

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

DaemonFCI remember two schemes by name that my grandparents got in on in the 90s.Mar 11 15:48
DaemonFCOne 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
DaemonFCpennies on the dollar.Mar 11 15:48
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCMy 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

DaemonFCI posted this on Amazon in regard to Apple and Microsoft's patent trolling of Android:Mar 11 19:57
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCEven 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
DaemonFCIt 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
DaemonFCThey 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
DaemonFCThis 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__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

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

cubezzzyes, locate xwm.h then hilight since I can't remember where it isMar 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

MinceRthere's a separate xsel package on debianMar 12 23:22

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. Schmidt should rather step down than cooperate but Mar 13 10:54
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. It's better to have other mechanisms for whistleblowers that don't involve the data permanence problem; Mar 13 10:54
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. 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 10:54

DaemonFCThey 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 17:34

MinceRfrom what i see, the country is still a wretched hive of m$ cultismMar 13 17:57

MinceRpeople clinging to their unusable crap with 10 fingersMar 13 17:58

cubezzzI wonder why they picked mwmMar 13 18:14

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Mar 13 18:24
DaemonFCUnlike 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
DaemonFCIn 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCOn 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
cubezzzdude, it's like you're blogging _in_ IRCMar 13 18:24
DaemonFCyeah :)Mar 13 18:24

Sosumiwith my current schedule, there is no point and I get to my destination way faster without the need to find a parking spotMar 13 21:27
MinceRafaict it's rather ill-behavedMar 13 21:27
sebsebseb_well at least the video that's going to be used for the eventMar 13 21:27
sebsebseb_makes it nice and clear in the open suse reviewMar 13 21:27
MinceRthen again, that's what i generally find with Microsoft Linux, SuSE EditionMar 13 21:27
sebsebseb_that it's more for power usersMar 13 21:27
sebsebseb_that should put some peope off I guess :DMar 13 21:27
sebsebseb_and KDE is all gekey etcMar 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 distrosMar 13 21:28
SosumiKDE is cool, could be a lot betterMar 13 21:28
sebsebseb_means I can talk to people to then :D about stuffMar 13 21:28
MinceRkde is not geekyMar 13 21:28
Sosumibut still kewlMar 13 21:28
Sosumialso nothing geeky about itMar 13 21:28
DaemonFCThe 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 alongMar 13 21:28
Sosumiwant to go geeky? just use the terminalMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_Sosumi: MinceR  KDE looks like WIndows,but hten is realy geeky once trying to customise and such in my experienceMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_get in a mess to  moving icons around and suchMar 13 21:29
MinceRi mean kde seems to be aimed at non-geeky users, with lots of eye candy and little flexibilityMar 13 21:29
MinceRsince 4.xMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_MinceR:  I am not sure about thatMar 13 21:29
MinceRsure, it's not gnome3 :>Mar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_,but I Think what I just put still applysMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_once you start doing something more than just the basicsMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_with KDEMar 13 21:29
sebsebseb_get in a messMar 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 KDEMar 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 thatMar 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 KDEMar 13 21:31
sebsebseb_for eventMar 13 21:31
MinceRstuff 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
MinceRlike openbox and the lxde panelMar 13 21:32
MinceRoh, 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
MinceRstuff like KDE refusing to configure itself the way you want toMar 13 21:32
sebsebseb_someone else can do suse a bitMar 13 21:32
MinceRor forgetting its settings :>Mar 13 21:32
*sebsebseb_ appanratly is good at marketing stuff like thisMar 13 21:33
sebsebseb_I guess give peple osme perosnal opinons and such toMar 13 21:33
sebsebseb_and then let them decideMar 13 21:33
sebsebseb_MinceR: Sosumi however what got me started chatting about all this again is uhmmMar 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 itMar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_people who may find it useful Mar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_or well some of them anywayMar 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 etcMar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_to geekyMar 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 listMar 13 21:34
sebsebseb_I Mean if I do that as wel, some  may go to the event, and pick openSUSE uhMar 13 21:35
sebsebseb_as wellMar 13 21:35
sebsebseb_openSUSE defiently has nice merchandice, but I woudn'treally recommend it as a distro to someoneMar 13 21:35
MinceRneither would iMar 13 21:35
sebsebseb_KDE can run in plenty of other distros and nicelyMar 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 reallyMar 13 21:36
sebsebseb_yast isn't neededMar 13 21:36
sebsebseb_MinceR: also to promote  LInux to people from my other group,  well it's a speaking group :dMar 13 21:37
sebsebseb_MinceR: so I don'treally ned them to come to an event such as this one on SaturdayMar 13 21:37
sebsebseb_that's what I am thinkingMar 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 evenMar 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 chooseMar 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 uhMar 13 21:39
sebsebseb_MinceR: comments?Mar 13 21:40
MinceRmehMar 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 sessionsMar 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 yeahMar 13 21:43
sebsebseb_I tried to get  Mint out before sort of, and yeahMar 13 21:43
sebsebseb_MinceR:  38 Facebook likes the other day I ThinkMar 13 21:44
sebsebseb_MinceR: 54 when I lookd ealrierMar 13 21:44
sebsebseb_ok so  one of htose is mine, one is the other organtier, and maybe another one or two as wellMar 13 21:45
sebsebseb_,but I guess it means 50 "other" people liked the event otMar 13 21:45
sebsebseb_MinceR:  and  not sure how well the Google adveritsing is working or notMar 13 21:45
sebsebseb_,but been coming up quite a lot apparnatlyMar 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
Sosumijust see if someone else gets opensusieMar 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
SosumiyesMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_Sosumi: yep exactly that's what I am thinkingMar 13 21:48
Sosumiso that you get either mint or ubuntuMar 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 :dMar 13 21:48
Sosumiwell, if that other ppl get ubuntu and/or mintMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_some time Mar 13 21:48
Sosumiall you'll be left is with opensusieMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_Sosumi: ,but if they go to eventMar 13 21:48
sebsebseb_they   may go to opensue or something  maybe some of them I don't knowMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_Sosumi: the three of htem will be togehter on the demo pc'sMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_Sosumi: ,but if I mainly promote Ubuntu and MintMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_then probably not that many will go with opensuse :DMar 13 21:49
sebsebseb_they will want a Mint and Ubuntu remaster or both :)Mar 13 21:49
SosumiokMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_and openSUSE will be like hMar 13 21:50
Sosumigood thenMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_ehMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_plus I think the video makes it seem that opensuse is for power users quite technical etcMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_Sosumi: yeah and the openSUSE guy uhmmMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_I am not htere to promtoe openSUSE that's my whole pointMar 13 21:50
sebsebseb_I would have been there promoting Mageia properly and GNOME 3, but they out voted that soMar 13 21:51
sebsebseb_at lest that and Fedora is mentioned in hand out thoughMar 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 standMar 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 wellMar 13 21:52
SosumigoodMar 13 21:52
Sosumibut I don't see the point in promoting gnome3Mar 13 21:52
sebsebseb_,ut would have liked toh ave done Mgaeia properly,  andGNOME 3, but htey out voted that soMar 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 htemMar 13 21:53
sebsebseb_or might htink, oh that's interesitng, I want to know moreMar 13 21:53
sebsebseb_,but if htey go to event hten uhmm, they may go to opensuse or somethingMar 13 21:53

DaemonFCWatching Star Trek: First Contact on Blu Ray.Mar 14 00:19
DaemonFCMom 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
DaemonFCA 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
DaemonFCI 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

_Goblinthe more the government denied, the more people thought they were covering up....it was actually a very clever "conspiracy"Mar 14 20:11
_GoblinNotice 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

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
Sosumippl use tvs to watch moviesMar 09 13:36
Sosumimany from what I've seen have already relegated all their computing to tabletsMar 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
Sosumithe only desktop market that still stays afloat is the gaming pcMar 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

Sosumibecause once you know how the mind worksMar 09 15:31
Sosumiyou'll no longer fall for the entrapments of propagandaMar 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

Sosumiwhat I don't like of these new carsMar 09 18:03
Sosumiis that things like the accelerator are not directly connected to the engine through a steel cableMar 09 18:03
Sosumibut instead it is through a pressure sensor that in turn is connected to the management system of the carMar 09 18:04

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 09 20:16
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 09 20:18
msb_Maybe those same brainwashed idiot voters would vote to make implanted chips and sensors mandatory.  Mar 09 20:19
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 09 20:20
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 09 20:23
msb_Of course there would be no way to switch it off.  For your own good.Mar 09 20:23
msb_I guarantee that psychopaths in the US government are working on this right now.Mar 09 20:24
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 09 20:26
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 09 20:29

abeNd-orgugh, 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 garbagewareMar 10 16:19
gde33abeNd-org: even worse, they were in a position to set some decent web standards but chose to keep what they like a secretMar 10 16:28

MinceR(and most likely even an "html5" video element could be used in such a way)Mar 10 17:05
abeNd-orgsure, 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 streamingMar 10 17:05
MinceRyou underestimate the popularity of vlc :>Mar 10 17:05
Sosumithat is why those humans deserve all the bag of hurt they get by installing flashMar 10 17:05
MinceRalso, regardless of your enthusiasm for flash, the fact is adobe is killing support for it.Mar 10 17:06

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
cubezzzthat 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
cubezzzso it's a rasterized display?Mar 11 00:42
cubezzzif so, it's one of the earliest onesMar 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
cubezzzthat's tinyMar 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
cubezzzI guess that would be assembly language only then?Mar 11 00:46
cubezzzah I seeMar 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
cubezzzinterestingMar 11 00:48
cubezzzI've dabbled with early DEC computers a bit, but not the LINCMar 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
cubezzzdid you ever work on a PDP-4?Mar 11 00:50
cubezzzthat's about the same eraMar 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

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
cubezzzreminds me a bit of Commodore PETMar 11 01:01
cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/superpet-apl2.pngMar 11 01:01
cubezzzthe PET had 8x8 characters though, so a bit more resolution than 4x6 :)Mar 11 01:03
cubezzzwikipedia says white or yellow phosphor, but those pics showed greenMar 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
cubezzzRK05?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
cubezzzwhat 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 fastMar 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
cubezzzyou 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
cubezzzsome work I did on tops-20:Mar 11 01:23
cubezzzhttp://apl.maxhost.org/apl-tops-20.txtMar 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
cubezzzwell tops-20 was the OS for DECSystem-20Mar 11 01:25
cubezzznot sure if that was the successor to PDP-10 thoughMar 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
cubezzzI guess it's still a PDP-10 thoughMar 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
cubezzzI think some of the DECSystem-20's had 1024 kilowords of ramMar 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_Didn't IBM contribute a billion dollars to improving Linux some years back?  Mar 11 01:41

msb_Did DEC have some kind of windowing GUI that ran on Unix before X?Mar 11 01:50
cubezzzthere was the W Window SystemMar 11 01:50
msb_Doesn't ring any bells.  I think it was on DEC...Mar 11 01:51
cubezzznot sure if that ran on DEC thoughMar 11 01:51

cubezzzbut it's the ancestor of XMar 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
cubezzzSunOS ran XMar 11 01:54
cubezzzxdm and all that stuffMar 11 01:55
msb_But didn't it have its own GUI before X?Mar 11 01:55
cubezzzmaybe really early on there was, not positive about thatMar 11 01:57
msb_"GUI environments bundled with earlier versions of SunOS included SunTools (later SunView)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunOS#User_interfaceMar 11 01:57
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | SunOS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia [ http://ur1.ca/gtc2j ]Mar 11 01:57
cubezzzeven SunView ran on top of XMar 11 01:57
cubezzzso before that, maybeMar 11 01:57
msb_I think it was SunView.Mar 11 01:57
cubezzzremember, everyone got behind X around 1986 or soMar 11 01:58
cubezzzso before 1986 it's quite possible that they used something elseMar 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
cubezzzhere's some history of X:Mar 11 01:59
cubezzzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/history-of-x.txtMar 11 01:59
cubezzzXerox 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
cubezzzyeah, I think X is importantMar 11 02:02
cubezzzdevice 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
cubezzzwell redhat had there redhat-config-xfree86 programMar 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
cubezzzin the somewhat olden days there was a package called XFree86-toolsMar 11 02:07
cubezzzso whatever was in thatMar 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
msb_Bilkenstein's monster.Mar 11 02:09
cubezzzit's better to understand the text files thoughMar 11 02:09
cubezzzrather than rely on some gui thingamajigMar 11 02:10
msb_Well, yeah, I had to hack the X config files.Mar 11 02:10
cubezzzok, now I remember what I used to do...Mar 11 02:11
cubezzzXfree86 -configureMar 11 02:11
cubezzzthat barfs out a XF86Config text file :)Mar 11 02:11
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 02:12
cubezzzwell the source is there, but it's hard to absorb all of it :)Mar 11 02:12
cubezzzlearning everything about X is wading into deep waterMar 11 02:13
cubezzza lot of the young uns don't understand X too wellMar 11 02:13
msb_it was SaX2!  or maybe SaX or SaX3Mar 11 02:14
msb_a lot of the old uns don't either!Mar 11 02:14
cubezzzno one is saying learn the X protocol 100%, but some macro-level understanding is goodMar 11 02:14
msb_No doubt.Mar 11 02:15
msb_Hey, it gives us a hobby!Mar 11 02:16
cubezzzScheifler "borrowed" a lot of W code for XMar 11 02:18
cubezzzso MIT, DEC, IBM got together and helped build up XMar 11 02:19
msb_Betwen google, the previous version, and IRC, any problem can be solved.  Eventually.Mar 11 02:19

msb_Even some kind of Sun 386s, that ran Unix.  They were kinda crashy.Mar 11 02:26

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

DaemonFCWell, 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 11:48
DaemonFCAt 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 11:48
DaemonFCPeople 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 11:48
DaemonFCMy 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 11:48
DaemonFCI remember two schemes by name that my grandparents got in on in the 90s.Mar 11 11:48
DaemonFCOne 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
DaemonFCpennies on the dollar.Mar 11 11:48
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCMy 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

DaemonFCI posted this on Amazon in regard to Apple and Microsoft's patent trolling of Android:Mar 11 15:57
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFCEven 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
DaemonFCIt 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
DaemonFCThey 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
DaemonFCThis is what companies like Microsoft and Apple do when there's nobody moving the game forward.Mar 11 15:57

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 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

cubezzzshould we takeMar 11 16:29

cubezzzyeah it's hard to know if your getting enough nutrition from the food you eatMar 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__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

SosumiI think the idea is great, but at the same kind of comparing to running the marathon with a leg tied behind my backMar 12 15:43
Sosumigiven the amount of hardware that gets dumped each yearMar 12 15:43
Sosumispecially from the gamer croudMar 12 15:43
Sosumi*crowdMar 12 15:44
Sosumieveryone and you could always get cheap upgradesMar 12 15:44
Sosumiand a p3 is ancientMar 12 15:45
Sosumispecially a 500MhzMar 12 15:45
Sosumiand the thing is just not about the upgrade treadmillMar 12 15:47
Sosumibut as the complexity of the software increases so does the need for faster hardwareMar 12 15:48
Sosumiand I'm in doubtMar 12 15:48
Sosumifor things like a server, doesn't the current version of fedora run on a p3?Mar 12 15:49
cubezzzread Vance Packard "The Waste Makers" and you might change your mindMar 12 15:49
MinceReven the complexity of the data increases :>Mar 12 15:49
Sosumihardly, when I buy faster hardware is mostly because I outgrew what I hadMar 12 15:50
cubezzzI found newer Fedora less reliable to be honestMar 12 15:50
MinceRand that of websites, unfortunatelyMar 12 15:50
cubezzzwell badly designed web designs is a poor excuse Mar 12 15:50
cubezzzwe live in a society of waste, it's well over the topMar 12 15:52
Sosumibut that waste brings progress and further advancementMar 12 15:52
Sosumiwhat could be considered wasteMar 12 15:53
cubezzzewaste, the world's full of itMar 12 15:54
Sosumiis the use and trow away techMar 12 15:54
Sosumilike those prebuilt computers with no standard partsMar 12 15:54
cubezzzplastics, chip fab, all need highly caustic chemicals Mar 12 15:54
cubezzzwhich end up in your soilMar 12 15:55
cubezzzI'm merely suggesting cutting back on thatMar 12 15:55
cubezzzwell I would suggest not buying bic-lighter computers :)Mar 12 15:57
Sosumithe biggest factor contributing to that is consumer techMar 12 15:57
SosumiI don't see how it'd be possible to cut on thatMar 12 15:58
Sosumippl want crap, manufacturers give them crapMar 12 15:59
MinceRmanufacturers also make crap that nobody wantsMar 12 15:59
MinceRi.e. winblows phone phonesMar 12 15:59
cubezzzI don't think people really want crap, I think they just aren't thinking about itMar 12 15:59
SosumiI'm certainly not the one buying a big tv totally overblown colorsMar 12 16:00
MinceRpeople want crap so much they're willing to pay more for worseMar 12 16:00
MinceRfor example, for hypePhonesMar 12 16:00
SosumihypePhones, bang & ollufsen, etcMar 12 16:01
cubezzzI like getting an old computer and fixing it upMar 12 16:01
Sosumifit into the model of a huge price premium just for the sake of exclusivityMar 12 16:01
Sosumiand "perceived value"Mar 12 16:02
cubezzz"The Hidden Persauders" 1957 :)Mar 12 16:02
cubezzzalso by Vance PackardMar 12 16:02
SosumiBernays mentioned that on his book Propaganda, messiah complex msb__Mar 12 16:02
cubezzzSun Microsystems had a lot of very interesting ideas to make computers more reliableMar 12 16:03
Sosumi"had"Mar 12 16:03
SosumiI'm still longing for a new sparc station or powerstationMar 12 16:03
cubezzzI think Sun Oracle still sell serversMar 12 16:04
cubezzzno idea what the prices are, I assume big $$$Mar 12 16:04
Sosumiyes, just serversMar 12 16:04
cubezzzglibc is bloated tooMar 12 16:06
cubezzzhence the creation of dietlibcMar 12 16:09
cubezzzthe 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
MinceRone problem with the Eternal Distro is that at some point some packages would cease to receive security updatesMar 12 16:15
MinceRfrom upstreamMar 12 16:15
cubezzz2.11BSD still gets patchesMar 12 16:19
cubezzzbut that doesn't run on actual hardware in my caseMar 12 16:20
cubezzzsome packages in openbsd are from the 90'sMar 12 16:22
cubezzzsome stuff gets orphaned, the creator loses interest, it happensMar 12 16:25
MinceRdoes it update applications and libraries that are 4 or more stable major releases ahead of what it ships? :>Mar 12 16:28
MinceRat 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
MinceRthere's only so many releases they can maintain simultaneouslyMar 12 16:29

msb__Mostly I want to figure out how to help restore a conscious culture like in the 1960s.Mar 12 19:00
MinceRi haven't even seen xwmMar 12 19:00
MinceRwhen i started using X, twm was already what shipped with XFree86 by defaultMar 12 19:01
MinceR(then again, XFree86 might never had xwm, for all i know)Mar 12 19:01
cubezzzwhen was that MinceR ?Mar 12 19:01
MinceRaround 2000, i thinkMar 12 19:01

cubezzzwell you can just hilight in konsole -> klipperMar 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
cubezzzI can just hilight the whole pathMar 12 19:08

cubezzzta da :)Mar 12 19:09
cubezzzyes, locate xwm.h then hilight since I can't remember where it isMar 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

MinceRthere's a separate xsel package on debianMar 12 19:21

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.

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 J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Mar 13 14:23
DaemonFCUnlike 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
DaemonFCIn 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCThe 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
DaemonFCOn 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
cubezzzdude, it's like you're blogging _in_ IRCMar 13 14:23

_GoblinArea 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 USMar 14 16:08
_Goblinthere 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
_Goblinthe more the government denied, the more people thought they were covering up....it was actually a very clever "conspiracy"Mar 14 16:10
_GoblinNotice 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
_GoblinIts very similar to a Microsoft view of "Do it our way or not at all"Mar 14 16:15
MinceRthe same could be said about russian foreign policy as wellMar 14 16:17
_GoblinVery true....but can you blame them?Mar 14 16:21
_Goblina liberal superpower becomes the lapdog of others nations wyms.Mar 14 16:21
_Goblintheres no us and them....this is governments fighting governments....a few people in power.Mar 14 16:22
_Goblinfor 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
_Goblinand 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
_Goblinthey 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 historyMar 14 16:25
MinceRwell, you can't fault every single citizen for everything their government does anywayMar 14 16:25
_Goblincompletely agree.Mar 14 16:25

DaemonFCI'd love to see them pick up more news channels if only for that reason.Mar 14 22:23
DaemonFCI 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
DaemonFC30 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
DaemonFCIn 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
DaemonFCyou 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
