msb_ | "Even if we are to believe the NSA, and I'm reluctant given its shaky track record, the damage has been done to the tech community." | Apr 13 13:02 |
msb_ | Perhaps all the revelations of NSA spying have benefitted the tech community. | Apr 13 13:03 |
msb_ | Many techies tend to be apolitical, perhaps because technology provides such an enjoyable area of interest, while politics are unpleasant. | Apr 13 13:04 |
msb_ | But now, a whole new array of people have been forced to realize how evil -- untrustworthy and harmful -- the U.S. government actually is. | Apr 13 13:05 |
msb_ | It has hit them where they live. | Apr 13 13:05 |
msb_ | Awareness of the evil is the most important factor in ridding the world of it. | Apr 13 13:06 |
cubezzz | well that was interesting | Apr 13 13:06 |
cubezzz | I actually managed to change the text console | Apr 13 13:06 |
msb_ | More and more people are questioning the 9/11 attacks, which were the pretext for the US/Israeli War of Terror. | Apr 13 13:07 |
msb_ | Every increase in people's awareness of the dominator psychopaths is a step forward. | Apr 13 13:08 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I mangaged to switch from bog standard 80x25 text to vga16fb | Apr 13 13:09 |
cubezzz | anyways, it's in the log if you ever come across it | Apr 13 13:09 |
msb_ | Congrats cubezzz. Yes, IIRC, you can do that with kernel options at startup. | Apr 13 13:10 |
cubezzz | msb_, this is dynamic | Apr 13 13:10 |
msb_ | Oho! | Apr 13 13:10 |
msb_ | So it's a loadable kernel module? | Apr 13 13:11 |
cubezzz | yes | Apr 13 13:11 |
cubezzz | works in 2.4 and 2.6 kernels, although those are the only 2 I've tried so far | Apr 13 13:13 |
cubezzz | now the interesting part is... will this fix a messed up text console | Apr 13 13:13 |
msb_ | Exactly what I was going to ask. | Apr 13 13:14 |
cubezzz | well I have to get it to mess up first to test that | Apr 13 13:14 |
msb_ | How often has it been happening? | Apr 13 13:14 |
cubezzz | ha | Apr 13 13:14 |
cubezzz | it happens about once or twice a month | Apr 13 13:15 |
msb_ | Do you monitor your cpu and mobo temperature sensors? | Apr 13 13:15 |
msb_ | KDE4 system monitor can do that. | Apr 13 13:16 |
cubezzz | you can monitor my sensors :) | Apr 13 13:16 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/cgi-bin/sensors.cgi | Apr 13 13:16 |
cubezzz | I don't think I'm using -12V or -5V | Apr 13 13:18 |
cubezzz | I think -12V was actually dropped from ATX a while back | Apr 13 13:18 |
msb_ | Isn't science wonderful! | Apr 13 13:21 |
msb_ | What program gives you that listing? | Apr 13 13:21 |
cubezzz | it's part of lm_sensors | Apr 13 13:26 |
cubezzz | yeah KDE 3.X probably has something | Apr 13 13:28 |
cubezzz | but it's nice to be able to use it in text mode | Apr 13 13:28 |
msb_ | I just loaded an rpm that supposedly has it, but it's not showing up yet. Have to look in half an hour when this anime' I'm watching is over. | Apr 13 13:34 |
msb_ | There's so much I don't know. I feel like I'm Dilbert going up against Techno-Bill! | Apr 13 13:34 |
cubezzz | well I was in the video game industry for quite a while | Apr 13 13:36 |
cubezzz | so I picked up a bit about low-level stuff | Apr 13 13:37 |
msb_ | At least I was an expert on the IBM-PC. Used to write wedges that went into the BIOS interrupt chains. | Apr 13 13:37 |
cubezzz | probably the coreboot guys know the most | Apr 13 13:37 |
cubezzz | the learning curve is a lot higher now | Apr 13 13:38 |

msb_ | Note the use of special words that somehow induce people to turn off their humanity. "War" -- actually means attacking and invading a country that never did anything against the U.S., and murdering a million of its people. But if the govt calls it "war" then Americans accept these MILLION MURDERS as being OK. Whereas one murder makes headlines. | Apr 13 15:30 |
msb_ | "Insurgent" actually means a person trying to defend their country against the American mass-murdering invaders. But when these defenders are labelled "insurgents", then Americans think it's great to murder them. | Apr 13 15:32 |

msb_ | MinceR: OK, first some (alternative) sociology. There are two types of society -- Partnership and Dominator. In partnership societies everyone has fairly equivalent social standing, and they treat each other as they themselves would want to be treated. In dominator societies, there is substantial stratification in wealth and power, with those at the top exploiting those below. | Apr 14 10:14 |
*siel has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) | Apr 14 10:15 | |
msb_ | MinceR: These terms are used in the seminal book _The Chalice and the Blade_, by Riane Eisler. Essential reading! | Apr 14 10:15 |
msb_ | MinceR: Dominator systems are run by psychopaths. | Apr 14 10:16 |
msb_ | MinceR: Now to economics. Capitalism and Socialism each have Partnership and Dominator versions. | Apr 14 10:17 |
msb_ | MinceR: For capitalism, and example of a partnership system would be a wonderful market I shop at. Every morning their trucks go to farms and farmers' markets and buy vegetables, bring them back to the urban market, and sell them cheaper than supermarkets -- often half the price. | Apr 14 10:19 |
msb_ | MinceR: For dominator capitalism, an example is the US corporate/government system, which utilizes mass murder (millions of victims) for profit. 9/11, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, ... | Apr 14 10:21 |
msb_ | MinceR: For partnership socialism, there's Nicaragua, which has a democratically elected socialist government, and sharing of resources such as agricultural equipment. For dominator socialism, there was Stalinist USSR. | Apr 14 10:23 |
msb_ | MinceR's name is greyed out in the nick list. I hope he can scroll back when he returns. | Apr 14 10:24 |

msb_ | Sosumi: Please clarify. | Apr 14 10:48 |
MinceR | msb_: i'm processing it | Apr 14 10:49 |
MinceR | msb_: the theory seems to make sense; i'm not sure about Nicaragua (or whether "partnership socialism" was ever implemented) | Apr 14 10:51 |
MinceR | msb_: i'm looking up the book | Apr 14 10:51 |
MinceR | maybe i'll rea dit | Apr 14 10:53 |
MinceR | s/ d/d / | Apr 14 10:54 |
MinceR | also, i'd say dominator capitalism occurs when the free market is distorted by market actors or the state, and/or when the state is captured by business, or vice versa | Apr 14 10:57 |
msb_ | MinceR: Here's a good page of links in Eisler's website: http://www.partnershipway.org/about-cps/foundational-concepts/creating-a-partnership-culture | Apr 14 10:58 |

msb_ | MinceR: David Korten bases his social/economic ideas on partnership/dominator (From Empire to Community) -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPiZJ5N9TkY | Apr 14 11:01 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.youtube.com | David Korten - The Great Turning - YouTube [ http://ur1.ca/h2rbs ] | Apr 14 11:01 | |
msb_ | MinceR: That video of Korten is *really* worth watching! | Apr 14 11:03 |
MinceR | i can't watch videos at work, though | Apr 14 11:04 |
msb_ | Can you watch it at home? | Apr 14 11:04 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 14 11:04 |
msb_ | Great. | Apr 14 11:04 |
msb_ | MinceR: Beyond the two problems of capitalism that you mentioned, another occurs when technology advances to the point where only a small fraction of the population has to work at 40hr/week jobs to produce enough goods and services for everyone. We reached that point some time ago, and have filled in with make-work jobs like advertising, drug enforcement, victimless crime enforcement and large prison populations, real estate and stock speculation, etc. | Apr 14 11:08 |
msb_ | MinceR: But actual unemployment in the US is at about 25% and rising. Unless we adopt partnership principles of sharing and equality, we're going to have a lot of homeless starving people. | Apr 14 11:10 |
MinceR | i'm not worried about that | Apr 14 11:10 |
MinceR | if we can do menial work with machines, we can get more rest | Apr 14 11:10 |
MinceR | as long as the same (or greater) value is produced, why worry about wasting less time with work? | Apr 14 11:11 |
msb_ | Yes, but how do people get money if there are not jobs for them? | Apr 14 11:11 |
MinceR | i don't know | Apr 14 11:11 |
MinceR | what i do know is that once we manage to eliminate scarcity, it won't matter | Apr 14 11:11 |
MinceR | and technology will be instrumental in that | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | We can already eliminate scarcity. | Apr 14 11:12 |
MinceR | hopefully people can gradually transition to more mental jobs in the meantime | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | 99% of the wealth is in the hands of 1% of the population. | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | If it were spread around better, there'd be no scarcity. | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | There aren't enough mental jobs to soak up the unemployed. | Apr 14 11:13 |
msb_ | Not nearly enough. | Apr 14 11:13 |
MinceR | competition is pretty lacking in several markets, more jobs could be created there | Apr 14 11:14 |
msb_ | In the limiting case, machines will provide all goods and services. But no one will have a job or money, so they won't be able to buy any. | Apr 14 11:14 |
msb_ | Competition is just another kind of make-work. | Apr 14 11:14 |
MinceR | except it's useful | Apr 14 11:15 |
msb_ | Lots of different car companies doing the same R&D. It's a waste of effort. | Apr 14 11:15 |
MinceR | without scarcity, nobody will need to buy anything | Apr 14 11:15 |
MinceR | not necessarily the same R&D | Apr 14 11:15 |
MinceR | there are plenty of different paths | Apr 14 11:15 |
msb_ | But in capitalism, someone always owns the machines, and will require payment for their products. | Apr 14 11:16 |
msb_ | Ownership of the producing machines in common, and free access to their products is ...Socialism! | Apr 14 11:16 |
MinceR | i'm not sure if those concepts have meaning when there's no scarcity | Apr 14 11:17 |
msb_ | But what does "no scarcity" mean? Who owns the machines that creates the goods and services? | Apr 14 11:19 |
msb_ | creates--> create | Apr 14 11:19 |
MinceR | everyone could own a swarm of nanobots that could be used to build the tools that are needed | Apr 14 11:21 |
MinceR | for example | Apr 14 11:21 |
msb_ | If the richest 1% didn't suck up 99% of the wealth now, we could all work 16hrs/week and have plenty. | Apr 14 11:21 |
MinceR | it could even be part of their body | Apr 14 11:21 |
msb_ | Nanobots are in the far future. What we have now is computer-controlled robotic machines. They can produce almost everything we need, but if they are owned by capitalists, no one will have a job to get money to buy the machines' products. | Apr 14 11:23 |
msb_ | Nanobots are also very dangerous -- the "gray goo" problem. | Apr 14 11:24 |
msb_ | A little programming error, and the whole planet is consumed. | Apr 14 11:24 |
MinceR | don't let microsoft and apple program them, then | Apr 14 11:25 |
msb_ | Anyone will be able to program them, and some will make mistakes. | Apr 14 11:25 |
MinceR | then we will have countermeasures | Apr 14 11:26 |
cubezzz | someone has to fix the robots, unless you develop robots that can fix other robots | Apr 14 11:26 |
cubezzz | Mincer :) | Apr 14 11:26 |
msb_ | IIRC, Drexler said that everything on Earth will have to have a coating of defensive nanomachines to protect it. Every blade of grass! | Apr 14 11:27 |
cubezzz | all those pie in the sky predictions never come true though | Apr 14 11:27 |
msb_ | Let's hope not! | Apr 14 11:27 |
cubezzz | no HAL 9000, no true AI | Apr 14 11:27 |
cubezzz | a self-programming computer, laughable | Apr 14 11:28 |
MinceR | what's laughable about that? | Apr 14 11:28 |
msb_ | But even a stupid AI, if programmed to protect itself and connected to military resources, could take over. | Apr 14 11:28 |
cubezzz | we got windows instead | Apr 14 11:28 |
MinceR | windows is dying | Apr 14 11:29 |
cubezzz | no computer can do what a human baby does | Apr 14 11:29 |
msb_ | Asimov wrote various stories about robes that figured out how to circumvent the Three Laws! | Apr 14 11:29 |
MinceR | a human baby might be a computer | Apr 14 11:29 |
MinceR | and a future human baby might contain computers :> | Apr 14 11:30 |
cubezzz | augmentation, yes | Apr 14 11:31 |
cubezzz | that's possible | Apr 14 11:31 |
msb_ | A clever but immoral lawyerbot could trash the Three Laws in microseconds! | Apr 14 11:31 |
MinceR | and human babies can exist in a universe simulated by a computer | Apr 14 11:31 |
cubezzz | progress is happening, it's just slower than Sci-Fi predicted, much much slower | Apr 14 11:32 |
MinceR | also, every blade of grass is already constantly fighting with pathogens on the cellular scale :> | Apr 14 11:33 |
cubezzz | my desktop hasn't really changed much in the last 10 years | Apr 14 11:47 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/old-desktop-2005.png | Apr 14 11:47 |
msb_ | MinceR: But those pathogens had to *evolve* their methods of attack -- very slow. Nanomachines, with nanocomputers, could simulate and evaluate attacks zillions of times faster. The poor blade of grass wouldn't have a chance without a layer of protective nanomachnes. | Apr 14 11:48 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/desktop-2014.png | Apr 14 11:49 |
MinceR | msb_: not necessarily a layer -- the nanomachines could also be inside the blade of grass | Apr 14 11:50 |
msb_ | And inside every food crop. Those diamond-based machines would make 'em really crunchy! | Apr 14 11:51 |
MinceR | they could be ordered to come out | Apr 14 11:52 |
msb_ | "Sorry, we like it here." | Apr 14 11:52 |
MinceR | then send in the killer nanomachines | Apr 14 11:52 |
MinceR | also, i'm not sure how much we'd need food crops once we're infused with nanomachines and quite possibly not human anymore :> | Apr 14 11:52 |
msb_ | I believe STTOS dealt with that situation: "EXISTENCE!... SURVIVAL... must cancel out... programming! " | Apr 14 11:54 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 14 11:54 |
msb_ | If only Ruk had squeezed Kirk a little harder... | Apr 14 11:54 |
cubezzz | mind transfer | Apr 14 11:56 |
cubezzz | some philosophical implications there | Apr 14 11:57 |
msb_ | STTOS and Kirk trashed every single instance of advanced technology they could find, including immortality. | Apr 14 11:57 |
cubezzz | ok, now we will upload your mind into windows 35 | Apr 14 11:57 |
cubezzz | uhhh, no thanks :) | Apr 14 11:57 |
cubezzz | he didn't trash Trelane's parents | Apr 14 11:58 |
cubezzz | not sure if that counts as tech though | Apr 14 11:58 |
msb_ | Anyhow What Are Little Girls Made Of? was self-contradictory. Kirk's justification for destroying the bot-creation machinery was that the resulting ghost-in-the-shell had no emotions. But the "native" bots did. It could have been fixed. But no immortality for us! | Apr 14 12:01 |
cubezzz | the Thasians were also quite advanced | Apr 14 12:01 |
cubezzz | lots of uber-aliens in TOS | Apr 14 12:02 |
msb_ | When Spock got happy in another ep, Kirk made some sound generator that ruined it. What a schmuck! | Apr 14 12:02 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 14 12:03 |
cubezzz | another thing we don't really have that TOS did: computers you can talk to | Apr 14 12:03 |
msb_ | *Working* | Apr 14 12:03 |
MinceR | we can talk to any computer | Apr 14 12:07 |
MinceR | not many of them listen, though :> | Apr 14 12:07 |
cubezzz | the last big step forward was www | Apr 14 12:08 |
msb_ | WWW/Linux/FOSS is the nervous system of the evolving World Community | Apr 14 12:19 |
MinceR | what about IRC? :> | Apr 14 12:19 |
msb_ | Dat's good too! | Apr 14 12:20 |
cubezzz | IRC predates WWW :) | Apr 14 12:20 |
cubezzz | of course Microsoft had to try and muck things up with MSNP | Apr 14 12:21 |
MinceR | and IRCX | Apr 14 12:22 |
msb_ | With WWW/Linux/FOSS, Cannabis, and Partnership/Eisler/Korten sociology, we can have a "soft landing" from the current fascist control system. Everybody just relax, give the fascist rulers tens of millions of dollars each if they promise not to make any more trouble.. | Apr 14 12:23 |

Sosumi | This brings me to another point that I’d like to make about clutter. Windows 8 started out with a very minimalist UI that has with every update become not only more like its predecessors but also more cluttered with additional ways to complete the same basic task. Do users really need this many ways to get to the same apps and settings? More to the point though, with the impending return of the start menu we’ll have yet another way to a | Apr 14 19:21 |

cubezzz | Be was in discussions with Dell, Compaq, Micron and Hitachi | Apr 14 19:37 |
cubezzz | only Hitachi actually shipped computers with BeOS | Apr 14 19:37 |
cubezzz | and the story is even sadder than that | Apr 14 19:38 |
cubezzz | Hitachi made changes to the boot loader rendering BeOS invisible to the consumer before they shipped | Apr 14 19:38 |
cubezzz | it was the Flora Prius | Apr 14 19:39 |
DaemonFC | I love my Chromebook. | Apr 14 19:39 |

cubezzz | there's still Haiku | Apr 14 19:41 |
cubezzz | but the point kind of was... an OEM tried to stand up to the big M and they got "visited" | Apr 14 19:41 |
cubezzz | then the boot loader was changed | Apr 14 19:41 |
cubezzz | this was around 1998-1999 | Apr 14 19:43 |
cubezzz | for FREE mind you | Apr 14 19:43 |

msb_ | MinceR: Hi! Did you watch that video of David Korten? | Apr 15 12:34 |
MinceR | not yet | Apr 15 12:34 |
msb_ | It's all about changing the story, the context, in your mind through which you see things. | Apr 15 12:36 |
msb_ | MinceR: He's not saying people should give up their private propitty. But we should have sharing and empathy as primary values shaping our economic system so that everyone can thrive, not just those at the top and the (ever-shrinking now) middle. | Apr 15 12:39 |
msb_ | MinceR: There's a deep, fundamental difference between families having their own home, cars, etc., and Monsanto and Microsoft having so much money that they can hurt people and buy the government, and no one can stop them. | Apr 15 12:41 |
MinceR | i think the main problem there is that m$ is incentivized to do harm | Apr 15 12:42 |
MinceR | and not punished | Apr 15 12:42 |
msb_ | MinceR: Conservatives and Libertarians always point us toward families, so we conclude that, of course they should have their private property. But they point us away from the ultra-wealthy and corporations that harm people for profit with their private property. | Apr 15 12:43 |
MinceR | what has liberalism have to do with families? | Apr 15 12:44 |
msb_ | Psychopaths can always find ways to make a profit by harming people. Reality incentivizes them. | Apr 15 12:44 |
msb_ | Liberalism says (or at least should say) that the economic system should help families to thrive, instead of taking 99% of the wealth and giving it to the 1% richest people, which is what we have now. | Apr 15 12:46 |
msb_ | MinceR: If rich people were satisfied when they had enough wealth to live, or even 10 or 100 times the amount they need to live, everything would be fine, because they'd leave the rest for the non-rich. | Apr 15 12:51 |
msb_ | MinceR: But they're never satisfied. A pigeon in a Skinner-box keeps pecking the switch until the cage fills up with food and it suffocates. But the wealthy under capitalism keep grabbing more and more until the non-wealthy 99% starve and lose their homes. | Apr 15 12:52 |
MinceR | punishment and incapacitation disincentivizes psychopaths. | Apr 15 12:53 |
msb_ | So how would you punish and incapacitate corporate owners who keep most of the profits for themselves instead of paying most of it to their workers as wages? | Apr 15 12:54 |
msb_ | MinceR: Even though the corporate owners say that the profits belong to them as "private property" because they own the corporations. | Apr 15 12:56 |
msb_ | MinceR: That's how the "private propery" concept causes harm when it's extended to the realm of great wealth. | Apr 15 12:58 |
MinceR | that's when the corporate veil needs to be pierced. | Apr 15 13:01 |
cubezzz | well one way to share the wealth is to buy shares | Apr 15 13:22 |

msb_ | MinceR: But once the corporate veil is pierced, what's the next step? If the main crime being committed by corporate owners is paying the workers too little and keeping too much for themselves, how do you fix that within the current rules/framework of capitalism? | Apr 15 13:32 |
MinceR | that doesn't seem to be the main crime in the case you quoted | Apr 15 13:32 |
MinceR | also, i see no reason why workers should be stuck with microsoft, other than microsoft making it difficult or impossible for competitors to exist and operate | Apr 15 13:33 |
msb_ | That's the main crime in general! | Apr 15 13:33 |
msb_ | That's why 1% of the population has 99% of the wealth, and the other 99% of the people have to make do on a total of 1%. | Apr 15 13:34 |
msb_ | That's a wealth ratio of 10,000 to 1 ! | Apr 15 13:38 |

MinceR | KMFMS is a nice site | Apr 15 14:17 |
msb_ | Yes, that bird is slightly ticked-off. | Apr 15 14:19 |
msb_ | KMFMS stands for Kein Mitleid Für MicroSoft. It's a German acronym meaning "no pity for Microsoft." | Apr 15 14:23 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 15 14:23 |
msb_ | From their FAQ. | Apr 15 14:24 |
MinceR | i've read it | Apr 15 14:24 |
msb_ | Here's another PO'ed penguin: http://cosmicpenguin.com/images/Linux_Wallpaper_Good_evening_Mr_Gates_Ill_Be_Your_Server_01.jpg | Apr 15 14:30 |
msb_ | Does that look too dark too anyone else? I had to boost my gamma a bit to see the darker parts. | Apr 15 14:32 |

msb_ | I like this one a little better: http://cosmicpenguin.com/images/Linux_Wallpaper_Good_evening_Mr_Gates_Ill_Be_Your_Server_01G2A.jpg | Apr 15 14:42 |
cubezzz | you lose contrast by boosting the gamma too much | Apr 15 14:43 |
msb_ | My settings are such that the KMFMS pic looks fine, but this one needs gamma=2 | Apr 15 14:44 |
msb_ | No wonder people need $2000 photometry setups to get this right. | Apr 15 14:45 |
cubezzz | folks are way too pedestrian in their choices of operating systems | Apr 15 14:46 |
cubezzz | back in the 80s we really did have more choices | Apr 15 14:46 |
cubezzz | there was Apple, Atari, Commodore, and Tandy (probably other ones I've forgotten) | Apr 15 14:47 |
msb_ | Back then most computer users were knowledgeable about computers. Now everybody has one, and very few know much about them. | Apr 15 14:48 |
msb_ | Those who do use Linux, of course. | Apr 15 14:48 |
msb_ | Anyhow, I'm using the settings that make most movies look right, and it needs gamma 2 on the server pic. | Apr 15 14:50 |
cubezzz | this is a list of what I actually use: | Apr 15 14:51 |

cubezzz | AROS is an open source version of AmigaDos 3.1 | Apr 15 14:56 |
msb_ | MinceR: Wow, that is one seriously weird gif file! | Apr 15 15:06 |
msb_ | I wanted to single-step it. mplayer wouldn't play it (no surprise). I fed it to xv, which gave about 400 error messages and wouldn't quit! When I deleted each one it put up another, and when I switched to another desktop it came back and put the error message under the mouse pointer. I wanted to type killall xv but I couldn't. Eventually it ran down and quit. Gwenview (and firefox) display it, but I don't know how to make either one pause. | Apr 15 15:10 |
msb_ | On another topic, I hope everyone has seen the movie Antitrust (2001). If not, there's a good copy of it in that naughty place right now. | Apr 15 15:12 |
cubezzz | the gimp might be able to single step an animated gif | Apr 15 15:13 |
MinceR | i just watched it in firefox :> | Apr 15 15:15 |
msb_ | Sure, it plays fine in firefox. A great work of art! but it goes by too fast to see some of the details. | Apr 15 15:16 |

DaemonFC | Someone told me something that I found to be disturbing a couple of days ago. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | The school systems in Indiana are not just wasting taxpayer dollars on Crapple iBads anymore. They're forcing parents, even poor ones, to pay full price for these malicious, proprietary, user-subjugating devices. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | To add insult to injury, the schools *could* buy Chromebooks for $150 each that do everything the iBad can and more, which shows how wasteful their buying practices are. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | Crapple takes the money from the government contracts, and uses some of it to turn around and buy our elections, making sure that politicians force parents and taxpayers to buy more Crapple iCrap later on. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | 2 secs · | Apr 15 15:33 |
DaemonFC | Then, while all this expensive Crapple iCrap is being "procured", I got a letter in the mail the other day from Dan Leonard, telling us how frugal the Indiana Politburo Republicans are being with our money. | Apr 15 15:33 |
DaemonFC | There's nothing like fascism that comes back and pisses on you while it's telling you that it's raining. | Apr 15 15:34 |

msb_ | The IPud doesn't have a real keyboard, so it's pretty tedious to *originate* content. Tablets are designed for consumption of content, and users should keep their mouths shut. | Apr 15 15:42 |

*DaemonFC (~ryan@unaffiliated/daemonfc) has joined #techrights | Apr 16 11:04 | |
DaemonFC | I got my new cable modem/router. | Apr 16 12:34 |
DaemonFC | Much nicer than Comcast's. | Apr 16 12:34 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 16 12:38 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: It included a copy of the GNU General Public License. | Apr 16 12:59 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 16 12:59 |
DaemonFC | Under system requirements, it says "Linux" is a supported operating system. | Apr 16 13:00 |
DaemonFC | Well, now I can get rid of another one of life's little ripoffs. | Apr 16 13:00 |
DaemonFC | Modem rental fee. | Apr 16 13:00 |
cubezzz | I did that 10 years ago :) | Apr 16 13:00 |
DaemonFC | Yeah. I was waiting for a good deal on a combination unit that supported the latest standards. | Apr 16 13:02 |
cubezzz | how much was the rental fee? | Apr 16 13:02 |
DaemonFC | I didn't feel like getting stuck on something that didn't support ipv6 or DOCSIS 3. | Apr 16 13:02 |
DaemonFC | $8 a month | Apr 16 13:02 |
cubezzz | 8 * 12 * 10 = $960 | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | The price for the Netgear N450 cable modem/router on Amazon fell to $99.99. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | And I got 3% off for using my Amazon Visa. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | yeah, but up until 2012, it was only $3 a month. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | Then in 2013, it was $5, and then in 2014, it is now $8. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | So, basically, the rental fee is killing you now, compared to owning. | Apr 16 13:04 |
DaemonFC | It pays for itself in 12 months, and then starts saving you money. | Apr 16 13:04 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: Yeah. Over 10 years, you can rent a modem and pay for it 10 times over, or you can own it and spend the remaining $900 any way you choose. :) | Apr 16 13:07 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: You forgot tax, which in Indiana, is 7%. | Apr 16 13:07 |
DaemonFC | So 56 cents a month in tax makes the real rental cost $8.56 a month. | Apr 16 13:08 |
DaemonFC | $1,027.20 over 10 years, *if* they don't raise it again. | Apr 16 13:08 |
cubezzz | $8 is a rip-off | Apr 16 13:09 |
cubezzz | In Canada they don't even sell DSL modems in stores | Apr 16 13:11 |
cubezzz | so I bought mind directly from Ovislink Canada | Apr 16 13:11 |
cubezzz | s/mind/mine/ | Apr 16 13:11 |
cubezzz | just like they don't sell DVR's that record antenna broadcasts | Apr 16 13:12 |
cubezzz | they are all tied to Rogers and Bell | Apr 16 13:12 |
cubezzz | I remember I called one store and they said "No one provides DSL modems except the ISP" | Apr 16 13:13 |
cubezzz | totally false | Apr 16 13:14 |
cubezzz | but I deal directly with a freenet so no problem there | Apr 16 13:14 |
cubezzz | so yeah, a lot of people are getting squeezed by content providers | Apr 16 13:18 |
msb_ | Another point to note is that even though electronics gets cheaper to produce every year, the fee we're forced to pay to content (or Internet) providers for their *usage* of electronics for our needs keeps increasing. They just gouge us more and more every year because they *can*. There's nothing stopping them. | Apr 16 13:39 |
msb_ | That's another problem with Capitalism. The only force that pushes prices lower is competition. But in many areas there IS NO COMPETITION. In the San Francisco Bay Area, where I live, Comcast is the ONLY cable company -- mandated by law. The only competition is DSL, which is much lower speed. | Apr 16 13:42 |

Sosumi | reading "morals and dogma" atm | Apr 16 21:16 |
Sosumi | and I've found on passage in the book that says what I've been saying all along | Apr 16 21:16 |
Sosumi | about religion and cult being nothing more than an "ignorant" interpretation of the celestial plane | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | aka planets and orbits | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | We know, through a precise testimony in the ancient annals of Tsur, that the principal | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | festivity of Mal-karth, the incarnation of the Sun at the Winter Solstice, held at Tsur, was | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | called his rebirth or his awakening, and that it was celebrated by means of a pyre, on | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | which the god was supposed to regain, through the aid of fire, a new life. This festival | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | was celebrated in the month Peritius (Barith), the second day of which corresponded to | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | the 25th of December. KHUR-UM, King of Tyre, Movers says, first performed this | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | ceremony. These facts we learn from Josephus, Servius on the AEneid, and the | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | Dionysiacs of Nonnus; and through a coincidence that cannot be fortuitous, the same | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | day was at Rome the Dies Natalis Solis Invicti, the festal day of the invincible Sun. Under | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | this title, HERCULES, HAR-acles, was worshipped at Tsur. Thus, while the temple was | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | being erected, the death and resurrection of a Sun-God was annually represented at | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | Tsur, by Solomon's ally, at the winter solstice, by the pyre of MAL-KARIH, the Tsurian | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | Haracles. | Apr 16 21:18 |
cubezzz | can you explain chocolate easter bunnies? :) | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | well, it is a fertility cult in the honor of ishtar | Apr 16 21:19 |
Sosumi | in which everyone engaged in massive orgies | Apr 16 21:19 |
Sosumi | since bunnies reproduce fast | Apr 16 21:19 |
Sosumi | you get the chocolate bunny as memento from times long gone | Apr 16 21:20 |
cubezzz | ok, but some guy must have come up with the idea of making them chocolate | Apr 16 21:20 |
cubezzz | I mean, it's a great way to sell chocolate and all | Apr 16 21:21 |
*Sosumi puts on his russian accent | Apr 16 21:21 | |
Sosumi | some capitalist pig! | Apr 16 21:21 |
Sosumi | I wouldn't mind a chocolate egg for easter | Apr 16 21:22 |
Sosumi | but I'm allergic to chocolate | Apr 16 21:23 |
Sosumi | :( | Apr 16 21:23 |
cubezzz | that's some bad luck there | Apr 16 21:23 |
Sosumi | I haven't any references in the book yet | Apr 16 21:33 |
Sosumi | to the name of Solomon | Apr 16 21:33 |
Sosumi | but I can say according to a theologian friend of mine | Apr 16 21:34 |
Sosumi | that it is just the name of the sun in three difference languages | Apr 16 21:34 |
Sosumi | sol-om-on | Apr 16 21:35 |

cubezzz | not really :) | Apr 16 21:35 |
cubezzz | but thanks for the info | Apr 16 21:36 |
Sosumi | it is a sun cult | Apr 16 21:36 |
Sosumi | which at first, according from what I read in Theodicy, was an evolution of the early fire worship cults | Apr 16 21:36 |
Sosumi | fire, sun, lighting and lightning striking a tree | Apr 16 21:37 |

*abeNd-org has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Apr 17 12:12 | |
Sosumi | I actually think m$ is going to fail hardly | Apr 17 13:41 |
Sosumi | with the xbone | Apr 17 13:41 |
Sosumi | no only the console is weaker but has no games | Apr 17 13:41 |
Sosumi | and the major iterations of the original xbox and xbox 360 have already kind of ended | Apr 17 13:42 |
Sosumi | aka gears of war and halo | Apr 17 13:42 |
Sosumi | with the non bungie made halo being meh as well as with halo reach | Apr 17 13:43 |
Sosumi | I don't even think halo reach's multiplayer even made it to mlg | Apr 17 13:43 |
Sosumi | with ppl sticking just to halo 3 | Apr 17 13:44 |
Sosumi | and at the end of the gen after m$ had blown all the steam on the xbox 360 | Apr 17 13:47 |
Sosumi | the ps3 actually surpassed it | Apr 17 13:47 |
Sosumi | while the xbox had no good exclusives at all | Apr 17 13:48 |
Sosumi | so the ps4 doing so well is a continue of the ps3 momentum | Apr 17 13:48 |
Sosumi | and being the superior platform | Apr 17 13:48 |

msb | Wiki says the PS4 runs a fork of FreeBSD, but I think that since BSD is not under GPL, the PS4 does not have to be programmable by the user and can be an "appliance" rather than a general purpose computer. Is this correct? | Apr 17 13:55 |
Sosumi | correct | Apr 17 13:56 |
msb | That sucks! | Apr 17 13:56 |
Sosumi | well ofc it does | Apr 17 13:56 |
Sosumi | just ask the game developers having to fork for a ps4 dev kit when they could instead just grab a ps4 off the shelf and start "deving" | Apr 17 13:57 |
msb | This is why the GPL is so important, so corporate pigs can't profit off the work of the free World Community without giving back to it. | Apr 17 13:57 |
msb | All praise to RMS! | Apr 17 13:58 |
Sosumi | the only way that'd change would be if suddenly M$ let ppl use the xbone as a general purpose computer | Apr 17 13:58 |
Sosumi | even if limited but as long as it could a regular desktop for home use | Apr 17 13:59 |
msb | I'd rather use a PS4 than anything from Microshit. | Apr 17 13:59 |
Sosumi | then sony would probably bring back the gnu/linux support | Apr 17 13:59 |
Sosumi | that they took away when they launched the ps3 slim | Apr 17 13:59 |
Sosumi | back in 2009 | Apr 17 14:00 |
msb | Yeah, that was a bummer. | Apr 17 14:00 |
Sosumi | well, you know that you still need m$ to develop for the ps3 | Apr 17 14:00 |
msb | You'd think they would sell more of them if people could use them freely. | Apr 17 14:00 |
Sosumi | I think it works through a visual studio plugin | Apr 17 14:01 |
msb | Feh. If it was open and the details were known, somebody would make a module for it for Eclipse. | Apr 17 14:03 |
msb | Last time I used an MS compiler (many years ago) you had to turn off all the optimizations or it would write severely erroneous code. | Apr 17 14:04 |
msb | The Prime Directive is: Never use anything from Microsoft! | Apr 17 14:05 |

cubezzz | I think it's important to remember FOSS is more that just linux | Apr 17 14:23 |
cubezzz | technically if you have the source code, the compilers/assemblers, and a working computer you have software freedom | Apr 17 14:24 |
cubezzz | the new chromebooks even have SeaBIOS built-in, so the 16-bit BIOS itself is FOSS | Apr 17 14:25 |

cubezzz | actually fc1 was kind of bloated too | Apr 17 18:15 |
cubezzz | and to be fair the dynamically linked stuff is smaller | Apr 17 18:18 |

schestowitz__ | I agree with the cherrypicking attitude when building a stable system - but the cherries should be picked by the users, shouldn't they? Why limit the choice this way when the rest of the article praises the availability of choice on the GUI-toolkit side? | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | Wouldn't it be better to turn Fedora into Fedora Workstation (with more polish and optimised, presets) and make Fedora Workstation really workstation-ready? I mean, it's we developers who know what we need best - e.g. I mostly do Python and C++ library development and I need tools and environment which are radically different than, for example, those needed by a programmer who develops webapps. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | I see no way for a pre-set desktop that would be good for both of us. But - I see a way for a desktop which comes bare-bones but offers advanced tools to install required programs, toolkits, GUI-environments etc. That makes a good job at helping the user manage itself and does not get in the way by saying *Hey, I'd like you do this MY WAY, otherwise it will be oh-so-hard". | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | Such system is truly workstation-ready in my opinion. Let us not forget that there is there is the work part in the workstation word. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | And, last but - for me - not least, my usual rant about the focus on web applications. I have been, am and will be opposing the move to web-interface-only programs, and those who will not work without seamless access to net. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | This point of view was shaped by my personal experiences, so take not that it is a biased opinion - I have always, and in fact I still do, had bad network access. If a program requires a constant access to the Network it's a no-go for me. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | I praise git (and I really mean it!) for being local-goes-global and not the other way round. It's a real blessing and an engineering excellence that despite being a tool to work over the network it needs reliable net access only for some 15 minutes to actually push local changes and pull upstream. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | And this is how people should be able to work - not worrying that they need something that is not immediately available on their local workstation. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | Maybe I am wrong, I am definitely no authority, but I think that when the real work is done webapps should take the back sits and let real desktop programs take the first spot. I do not deny their usefulness - but I consider them more as interfaces to inspect the results of work (e.g. GitHub) or as a tools for discussion (e.g. Loomio). | Apr 17 19:02 |

Sosumi | "the end is near" | Apr 18 07:21 |
Sosumi | well, the end of the week :) | Apr 18 07:21 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I completly forgot about the Ubuntu 14.04 LTS release yesterday | Apr 18 07:23 |
sebsebseb | since other stuff | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | ah well | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: altough the Ubuntu release party channel may have been fun so hmm | Apr 18 07:24 |
Sosumi | I'm not a fan of ubuntu | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | altough it shows how my life has changed | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | years ago I would have not had much else to think about really and so going there no problem | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I was going to do a talk yesterday, but | Apr 18 07:25 |
sebsebseb | un well and had travel issues and what not as well, so nope, another time instead | Apr 18 07:25 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no I don't really like Ubuntu that much either since 2009 | Apr 18 07:26 |
sebsebseb | ,but it's still one of the best chances at Desktop Linux going more main streame | Apr 18 07:26 |
Sosumi | oddly enough I always have to do in order to occupy myself | Apr 18 07:26 |
sebsebseb | to be honest I don't really care about that as much either these days really, but someone in my family is still running unsupported Windwos XP for now, which I am not happy about of course | Apr 18 07:26 |
sebsebseb | now I just need to test a ISO for what will become Mageia 4.1 | Apr 18 07:27 |
sebsebseb | which is meant to fix isolinux bugs, where there's issues on old hardware, and the computer won't boot up, from Live CD | Apr 18 07:27 |
sebsebseb | CD's | Apr 18 07:27 |
sebsebseb | and well hopefuly that will work and :) | Apr 18 07:27 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: you always have to what to occupy yourself? | Apr 18 07:27 |
Sosumi | gym, classes, studying, readying, projects | Apr 18 07:28 |
Sosumi | there's always stuff to do | Apr 18 07:28 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: not in my current life to be honest | Apr 18 07:29 |
sebsebseb | ,but here and there yes | Apr 18 07:29 |
sebsebseb | or there is stuff I could do, but don't just do. getting rid of more life junk, sorting out the driiving thorey, just two examples | Apr 18 07:29 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: to many old CD R's and what not here still | Apr 18 07:30 |
sebsebseb | to go through and get rid of most of them | Apr 18 07:30 |
Sosumi | I've already got rid of all my cds | Apr 18 07:30 |
sebsebseb | CD R's | Apr 18 07:31 |
sebsebseb | or in general | Apr 18 07:31 |
sebsebseb | music CD's and what not to | Apr 18 07:31 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.economist.com | Charlemagne: Russia’s friends in black | The Economist [ http://ur1.ca/h3w88 ] | Apr 18 07:31 | |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I'll keep the proper CD's and DVD's, but most CD R's and DVD R's will be going | Apr 18 07:31 |
sebsebseb | including the really old blank ones I think from years ago | Apr 18 07:31 |
*hiddenbacon has quit (Quit: Ex-Chat) | Apr 18 07:31 | |
Sosumi | ho, I just my music from the piratebay | Apr 18 07:31 |
Sosumi | *get | Apr 18 07:31 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: that's blocked in this country | Apr 18 07:31 |
sebsebseb | by ISP's | Apr 18 07:32 |
sebsebseb | since the goverment requested that | Apr 18 07:32 |
Sosumi | plus most of the stuff I hear | Apr 18 07:32 |
Sosumi | is from artists that are already dead | Apr 18 07:32 |
Sosumi | I'm sure Tchaikovsky wouldn't mind | Apr 18 07:32 |
sebsebseb | ok, but the record companies still want to profit off that hmm | Apr 18 07:32 |
Sosumi | nor Ronnie Dio | Apr 18 07:33 |
Sosumi | that is a problem | Apr 18 07:33 |
Sosumi | once the record label stops printing the album for 3 years after the artist's death | Apr 18 07:34 |
Sosumi | the record label should relinquish its rights | Apr 18 07:34 |
Sosumi | just one example | Apr 18 07:34 |
MinceR | then they'll never stop printing albums | Apr 18 07:34 |
Sosumi | but what if ppl don't buy them | Apr 18 07:34 |
Sosumi | they print according to demmand | Apr 18 07:35 |
MinceR | just like how movie franchise licensees never stop making comic book movie reboots | Apr 18 07:35 |
MinceR | so they don't lose the license | Apr 18 07:35 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: why do you say 3 years after | Apr 18 07:35 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ? | Apr 18 07:35 |
MinceR | Sosumi: they can keep making a very low number every 3 years | Apr 18 07:35 |
Sosumi | good point | Apr 18 07:35 |
Sosumi | but I just said that as an example on the spur of the moment | Apr 18 07:36 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: comic book films, yep Spider man sells | Apr 18 07:38 |
sebsebseb | and another is out in the cinema now or soon | Apr 18 07:38 |
Sosumi | spider pig | Apr 18 07:38 |
sebsebseb | the hobbit sells to | Apr 18 07:38 |
sebsebseb | and stuff like that | Apr 18 07:38 |
Sosumi | not a fan of that stuff | Apr 18 07:38 |
sebsebseb | no me either from what I remember of the lord of the rings movies | Apr 18 07:39 |
sebsebseb | I haven't seen the two hobbit films | Apr 18 07:39 |
sebsebseb | yet | Apr 18 07:39 |
sebsebseb | however that kind of stuff is very popular around here | Apr 18 07:40 |
Sosumi | sad | Apr 18 07:42 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: Sosumi oh that Ubuntu GNOME one that came in on the Tuxmachines feed | Apr 18 07:43 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: Sosumi is by schestowitz__ 's wife apparantly | Apr 18 07:44 |

MinceR | schestowitz__'s wife posting on tuxmachines is not new to me :) | Apr 18 07:45 |

sebsebseb | or uh she's even now then :d | Apr 18 07:45 |
MinceR | probably should have got more sleep | Apr 18 07:45 |

sebsebseb | MinceR: I am thinking the same about sleep | Apr 18 07:45 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: ok I slept a bit in the chari in the living room, but | Apr 18 07:45 |

schestowitz__ | "yes, we agree" | Apr 18 18:39 |
msb | schestowitz__: There are many other people saying that the US is fascist other than the groups you mentioned. In fact, the phrases you mentioned are often used to unjustifiably smear honest researchers and advocates. "Conspiracy theorists" is a term invented by the government to discredit JFK assassination researchers. | Apr 18 18:39 |
msb | "Fascism is Corporatism" -- Mussolini | Apr 18 18:42 |
msb | Corporations and ultra-wealthy individuals totally control govt by bribery. They bribe the govt to make laws favorable to them. They bribe the govt to invade and destroy nations that have socialistic economies, so the corporations can then go into those nations and exploit the workers there. | Apr 18 18:44 |
msb | schestowitz__: The fact that some crazy evil people say that something is true does not make it false. To say that it does is a logical fallacy. In this case, it would prevent people from realizing that the US is in fact fascist even when the soldiers are goose-stepping down the streets and shooting people. "Oh no, we can't use the word 'fascism' -- people would associate us with 'conspiracy theorists' and Ron Paul supporters." | Apr 18 18:48 |
msb | schestowitz__: If most people are mind-controlled by lying media and government propagands, thanks to Edward Bernays -- which they are -- then censoring our ideas and speech based on what most people would think PREVENTS US FROM THINKING ACCURATELY. | Apr 18 18:51 |

DFS | Is Roy Spamowitz here? | Apr 18 18:52 |
*DFS is now known as Guest36863 | Apr 18 18:52 | |
Guest36863 | He used to spam comp.os.linux.advocacy with 35-50 NEWS posts per day | Apr 18 18:52 |
Guest36863 | For 5 years straight | Apr 18 18:52 |
MinceR | i'm not aware of any person called "Roy Spamowitz" | Apr 18 18:52 |
Guest36863 | He was a degenerate liar, too. | Apr 18 18:53 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, Spamowitz now says he's an 'advocate of fair competition' | Apr 18 18:53 |
MinceR | how does this concern this channel? | Apr 18 18:53 |
Guest36863 | So, when will Spamowitz begin calling for Linux to put price tags on everything? | Apr 18 18:53 |
msb | DFS is one of the most active pro-Microsoft anti-Linux posters in comp.os.linux.advocacy. | Apr 18 18:53 |
MinceR | somehow i suspected that | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | I'm not pro-MS | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | I don't even like them. | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | I like some of their software. | Apr 18 18:54 |
msb | Apparently he posted first under the nick of "DFS", and then changed to "Guest36863". | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | I didn't change - the channel changed it for me. | Apr 18 18:55 |
MinceR | he probably didn't identify for DFS | Apr 18 18:55 |
MinceR | no, the channel did not change it | Apr 18 18:55 |
MinceR | NickServ changed it. | Apr 18 18:55 |
Guest36863 | So change it back. | Apr 18 18:55 |
MinceR | it is none of our concern. | Apr 18 18:55 |
MinceR | don't you ever read your status/server window? | Apr 18 18:55 |
Guest36863 | It was flashing by/ jumping around | Apr 18 18:56 |
msb | DFS routinely refers to Roy as "Spamowitz". | Apr 18 18:56 |
Guest36863 | So, when will the 'advocate of fair competition' begin calling for price tags on Linux distros and apps? | Apr 18 18:56 |
Guest36863 | Never, that's when. | Apr 18 18:56 |
MinceR | why should any advocate of fair competition begin calling for that? | Apr 18 18:56 |
Guest36863 | Extremely stupid question. | Apr 18 18:57 |
msb | Which means that he can't answer it. | Apr 18 18:57 |
MinceR | you'll need to adjust that attitude of yours, Guest36863. | Apr 18 18:57 |
Guest36863 | Fair competition would require Linux distros/apps to charge similar prices as those found on commercial software products. | Apr 18 18:57 |
MinceR | no, it would not. | Apr 18 18:57 |
Guest36863 | Yes, it would. | Apr 18 18:58 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.osdisc.com | OSDisc.com - Buy Linux CDs and DVDs - New Releases. Low Prices. | Apr 18 18:58 | |
MinceR | fair competition is not the same as command economy. | Apr 18 18:58 |
Guest36863 | Giving your code away for free is extremely uncompetitive. | Apr 18 18:58 |
MinceR | it's not exactly that, though | Apr 18 18:58 |
Guest36863 | Funny that Linux can't even be given away. | Apr 18 18:58 |
msb | People create GNU/Linux/FOSS out of enjoyment and generosity and therefore give it away for free. | Apr 18 18:58 |
MinceR | users contribute in exchange for the software -- bug reports, code fixes/patches, etc. | Apr 18 18:58 |
Guest36863 | Add a price tag and watch the howls... | Apr 18 18:58 |
*MinceR adds a price tag saying "0" | Apr 18 18:59 | |
*MinceR waits for the howls | Apr 18 18:59 | |
msb | I used to buy Suse boxed sets. | Apr 18 18:59 |
Guest36863 | But you didn't pay nearly the equivalent of the commercial code. | Apr 18 18:59 |
MinceR | i also didn't receive the equivalent of the commercial code, thankfully | Apr 18 18:59 |
cubezzz | you can charge for discs, manuals, etc | Apr 18 19:00 |
MinceR | as the code you're advertising is of horribly low quality. | Apr 18 19:00 |
cubezzz | there's no rule saying you can't | Apr 18 19:00 |
msb | DFS has been spamming COLA for many years. He will never change his mind. He's probably paid by Microsoft. | Apr 18 19:00 |
Guest36863 | If they create GNU/LInux/FOSS out of generosity, why do most projects ask for donations? | Apr 18 19:00 |
Guest36863 | Only Spamowitz spammed cola with off-topic NEWS.. 5 years straight | Apr 18 19:00 |
msb | People have found proof that Microsoft has employees posting to various FOSS forums. | Apr 18 19:01 |
MinceR | why is news off-topic on COLA? | Apr 18 19:01 |
Guest36863 | of 35-50 posts per day. Full of lies and deceit. | Apr 18 19:01 |
msb | Full of great information. | Apr 18 19:01 |
Guest36863 | If MS does have people posting to forums, so what? | Apr 18 19:01 |
MinceR | and why do i get the suspicion that what you call "lies and deceit" were merely facts that were inconvenient to microsoft munchkins? | Apr 18 19:01 |
msb | I wish Roy would start it again. | Apr 18 19:01 |
Guest36863 | They ought to pay people to counter the lies of Linux idiots. | Apr 18 19:01 |
*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Apr 18 19:01 | |
MinceR | no, they paid people to masquerade as grassroots support for microsoft. | Apr 18 19:02 |
Guest36863 | So? | Apr 18 19:02 |
MinceR | that's the "lies and deceit" you're looking for. | Apr 18 19:02 |
cubezzz | astro turfing you mean | Apr 18 19:02 |
Guest36863 | Who pays Linux "advocates" to lie about MS and Windows? | Apr 18 19:02 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 18 19:02 |
MinceR | GNU/Linux advocates do not need to lie about m$ and windows, as both are atrocious enough as they are. | Apr 18 19:02 |
msb | "If MS does have people posting to forums, so what?" The problem is that they don't SAY they work for Microsoft, and are posting to increase MS's profits. | Apr 18 19:02 |
Guest36863 | They don't need to lie about them, but they do it anyway. | Apr 18 19:03 |
MinceR | again, what makes this relevant to this channel? | Apr 18 19:03 |
msb | Nothing. He'll just do it until somebody blocks him. | Apr 18 19:03 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, my social visit was to ask Spamowitz - the 'advocate of fair competition' - why he doesn't spend years calling for Linux distros and apps to attach a reasonable price tag? | Apr 18 19:04 |
MinceR | i believe there's no person called "Spamowitz" here | Apr 18 19:04 |
Guest36863 | Pass the message onto him for me. Watch him run. | Apr 18 19:04 |
MinceR | nobody of that name responded | Apr 18 19:04 |
MinceR | looks like you're looking in the wrong place. | Apr 18 19:04 |
msb | In a free market, people set the prices of their products as they please. | Apr 18 19:04 |
Guest36863 | There's no M$ or 'munchkins' either. | Apr 18 19:05 |
Guest36863 | So what are you whining about? | Apr 18 19:05 |
MinceR | except for people like you, yes | Apr 18 19:05 |
msb | There are other forms of income than money, such as the satisfaction of helping other people. | Apr 18 19:05 |
Guest36863 | If that's all they're looking for, why do they ask for donations? | Apr 18 19:06 |
msb | DFS is a psychopath and has no empathy, so he doesn't know about that. | Apr 18 19:06 |
MinceR | Guest36863: this might be surprising to you, but despite what bill gates believes, not all software development happens solely in the interest of profits. | Apr 18 19:06 |
Guest36863 | How would you know what Gates believes? | Apr 18 19:06 |
MinceR | from his public letter to "hobbyists" | Apr 18 19:07 |
MinceR | but you haven't read that either, have you? | Apr 18 19:07 |
Guest36863 | He, MS and Windows have done so much more for the world than 'Free software' will do in 1000 lifetimes. | Apr 18 19:07 |
MinceR | free software will indeed never do nearly so much harm as he did | Apr 18 19:07 |
MinceR | Guest36863: so why are you advertising m$ here anyway? what's in it for you? | Apr 18 19:08 |
MinceR | do they pay you? | Apr 18 19:08 |
Guest36863 | So much harm that the world runs to MS throwing $80 billion a year at them. | Apr 18 19:08 |
MinceR | or have you merely made an ill-thought investment in them and aren't willing to learn anything else? | Apr 18 19:08 |
MinceR | yes, m$ corruption and market manipulation has led to them extorting a lot of money from people and states | Apr 18 19:08 |
Guest36863 | Same idiocy found in the tiny brains of all FOSS wackos: "MS is paying you", "your job is threatened by Linux", blah blah | Apr 18 19:09 |
MinceR | for example, the hungarian government pays them a lot for crap they hand to students and lie that they're gratis | Apr 18 19:09 |
MinceR | Guest36863: you still haven't answered any questions. | Apr 18 19:09 |
Guest36863 | What questions? | Apr 18 19:09 |
MinceR | the ones i asked you | Apr 18 19:09 |
msb | Microsoft has never, and probably will never, produce software that assists and augments human thought processes as effectively as GNU/Linux does. | Apr 18 19:09 |
Guest36863 | MS isn't paying me. | Apr 18 19:09 |
MinceR | so, cognitive dissonance, then? | Apr 18 19:10 |
MinceR | or just plain old brain damage? | Apr 18 19:10 |
Guest36863 | 'assists and augments human thought processes'.... BWAHA!!! | Apr 18 19:10 |
Guest36863 | What kind of nutjobs are you people? | Apr 18 19:10 |
MinceR | msb: i think your words are confusing his tiny mind | Apr 18 19:10 |
MinceR | Guest36863: yes, what kind of nutjob are you? | Apr 18 19:10 |
msb | " <Guest36863> If MS does have people posting to forums, so what?" | Apr 18 19:11 |
Guest36863 | Hey, I bet both you dunces (msb and MinceR) have Windows jobs... most 'Linux advocates' do. | Apr 18 19:11 |
msb | He as much as admitted it right there. | Apr 18 19:11 |
MinceR | Guest36863: that's a bet you'd lose | Apr 18 19:11 |
MinceR | Guest36863: so, do you have any job at all? | Apr 18 19:12 |
msb | I think he's doing his job right now, right here. | Apr 18 19:12 |
cubezzz | I use a bunch of different operating sytems | Apr 18 19:12 |
Guest36863 | What does it matter whether I have a Windows job, a Linux job, or no job? | Apr 18 19:12 |
MinceR | Guest36863: if it doesn't matter, why do you ask us about it? | Apr 18 19:12 |
Guest36863 | What matters is when will Spamowitz - the 'advocate of fair competition' - call for LInux to begin competing fairly? | Apr 18 19:12 |
MinceR | Guest36863: does a windows advocate have a windows job? | Apr 18 19:13 |
Guest36863 | So? | Apr 18 19:13 |
MinceR | yeah, so? | Apr 18 19:13 |
cubezzz | windows user, what a surprise | Apr 18 19:13 |
Guest36863 | When will it happen that the 'advocate of fair competition' actually advocates fair competition? | Apr 18 19:14 |
Guest36863 | Never, that's for sure. | Apr 18 19:14 |
MinceR | it happens all the time | Apr 18 19:14 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, tell Spamowitz I dropped by and called out his lies and idiocy. | Apr 18 19:14 |
MinceR | then again, i wouldn't expect a m$ munchkin to have any idea of what "fair competition" is | Apr 18 19:14 |
msb | Obviously MS is worried about the increasing adoption of GNU/Linux, even though the price of most computers that people buy already includes a payment to MS for Windows, even if the purchaser never uses Windows. | Apr 18 19:14 |
MinceR | it being anathema to m$, apparently | Apr 18 19:14 |
cubezzz | sure, whatever mr anonymous 3848592 | Apr 18 19:15 |
msb | DFS and about ten other MS spammers have totally trashed COLA for years, and made it useless as a Linux forum. | Apr 18 19:16 |
*Guest36863 has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) | Apr 18 19:18 | |

MinceR | didn't get enough gratis licences for m$ crap this month? | Apr 18 19:19 |
cubezzz | ok, I was going to kick him but I can't remember how to get ops | Apr 18 19:19 |
msb | I have never used MS-Windows. Around 1984 I made a terminal emulator in BASIC that I ran under PC-DOS on my 8088 IBM-PC and used it to communicate with a BSD Unix system at a local university. Around 2000 I switched to Linux.. | Apr 18 19:19 |
MinceR | cubezzz: /cs op #techrights | Apr 18 19:19 |
MinceR | or /chanserv op #techrights | Apr 18 19:19 |

cubezzz | yay | Apr 18 19:20 |
MinceR | msg works too, but is less secure :) | Apr 18 19:20 |
cubezzz | I can't believe I didn't write that down | Apr 18 19:20 |
MinceR | (some scripts seem to use msg with a full nick!user@host spec, that's probably more secure than plain msg) | Apr 18 19:20 |
cubezzz | you're more patient that me MinceR | Apr 18 19:20 |
cubezzz | I think I would have kicked him out sooner | Apr 18 19:21 |
msb | MinceR: Your little person-picture in the Konversation nick list is bold, so I think that means you are already an op. | Apr 18 19:21 |
MinceR | not really, i've asked Roy if i should remove him :> | Apr 18 19:21 |
MinceR | msb: i am but cubezzz wanted to know how to get op | Apr 18 19:21 |
msb | Right. | Apr 18 19:21 |
cubezzz | oh well, so much for today's excitement | Apr 18 19:22 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 18 19:22 |
cubezzz | I didn't really understand his arguments | Apr 18 19:23 |
msb | Debating a shit-hole like that does clarify one's own thoughts on the subject. | Apr 18 19:23 |
cubezzz | I knew he'd be a windows person :) | Apr 18 19:23 |
msb | Nobody could understand his arguments, because they were totally bogus. | Apr 18 19:24 |
cubezzz | duh, I only know how to use one operating system | Apr 18 19:24 |
cubezzz | I didn't get the chance to ask him if he compiles his kernel | Apr 18 19:24 |
msb | His arguments were predicated on lies. | Apr 18 19:24 |
cubezzz | that's my favourite anti-troll comment | Apr 18 19:24 |
MinceR | lol | Apr 18 19:25 |
MinceR | are you sure he knows what a "kernel" is? :> | Apr 18 19:25 |
cubezzz | am I sure? no | Apr 18 19:26 |
msb | Not only doesn't he compile his own kernel (which I don't either, but I could), but he doesn't examine his own mind. So he has no free will. He's not really conscious. | Apr 18 19:26 |
cubezzz | it's like not knowing how to cook | Apr 18 19:28 |
*MinceR doesn't know how to cook | Apr 18 19:28 | |
cubezzz | so you eat fast food all the time... it's not healthy | Apr 18 19:28 |
MinceR | not all the time | Apr 18 19:28 |
msb | Psychopaths can't reconcile their thoughts and behavior with what they know is necessary for human survival and success. So they can't examine their ideas and motives. It would create too much cognitive dissonance. | Apr 18 19:28 |
MinceR | not even most of the time | Apr 18 19:28 |
cubezzz | just make mrproper, make menuconfig and pick what you want | Apr 18 19:29 |
MinceR | cooking doesn't work that way :> | Apr 18 19:29 |
cubezzz | cooking is like programming... | Apr 18 19:30 |
msb | Asian fast food can be excellent. | Apr 18 19:30 |
MinceR | yeah, i had chinese once this week | Apr 18 19:30 |
cubezzz | no one goes around saying "you can't use that recipe for apple pie" | Apr 18 19:30 |
cubezzz | it's just stupid | Apr 18 19:30 |
msb | There's a great Chinese place near me, and they deliver! | Apr 18 19:31 |
MinceR | well, if m$ got into the food business, they would | Apr 18 19:31 |
cubezzz | but for some reason, people put up with closed source | Apr 18 19:31 |
msb | A. Most people don't know much about computing. B. Microsoft spends huge amount of money on lying adverts to deceive people. | Apr 18 19:32 |
cubezzz | msb, you're old enough to know about the pre-windows and pre-microsoft era | Apr 18 19:32 |
cubezzz | there was sharing of code... | Apr 18 19:32 |
msb | Teriyaki, that was it! There was a wonderful Japanese teryaki fast-food place in San Francisco I used to go to all the time. | Apr 18 19:33 |
cubezzz | on BBSes and even usenet | Apr 18 19:33 |
msb | cubezzz: yes. I used to see lots of sharing of Unix code on Usenet through my Unix account. | Apr 18 19:34 |
msb | A lot of it was archived on Simtel20 at White Sands AFB (or whatever it was). | Apr 18 19:35 |

msb | You got it not by ftp, there was some other protocol, which I forget. | Apr 18 19:35 |
schestowitz__ | "I guess I want to see those legs make like the roadrunner. But then I guess that should have been a Plymouth Roadrunner he pulled up next to." | Apr 18 19:35 |
cubezzz | not to mention a lot of magazines published source code listings | Apr 18 19:35 |
cubezzz | Dr Dobb's published the source for Tiny BASIC in 1975 | Apr 18 19:36 |
cubezzz | msb, uucp? | Apr 18 19:37 |
msb | There was a format for publishing source code in Usenet articles. It wasn't compressed, but had some extra characters for getting whitespace right. | Apr 18 19:37 |
MinceR | uuencode? | Apr 18 19:37 |
msb | cubezzz: I remember uucp, but that was a lower-level protocol. | Apr 18 19:38 |
cubezzz | and the DECUS tapes, I've tapped into that | Apr 18 19:39 |
cubezzz | some good stuff in there | Apr 18 19:39 |
msb | MinceR: yes, I think my terminal would do uuencode and uudecode, but this was something else. I thing wget may still do it. | Apr 18 19:39 |
MinceR | ic | Apr 18 19:39 |
cubezzz | I think ftp predates even tcp/ip | Apr 18 19:40 |
cubezzz | it used NCP, which was the precursor of tcp/ip | Apr 18 19:41 |
msb | This was another protocol for wandering around in a directory structure and downloading what you wanted. But I can't remember the name! | Apr 18 19:42 |
cubezzz | not gopher? | Apr 18 19:42 |
cubezzz | WAIS? | Apr 18 19:42 |
msb | Maybe it was gopher. That feels kind of close to it. | Apr 18 19:43 |
msb | So long ago... | Apr 18 19:43 |
MinceR | "When Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy learned of BBN's accomplishment in signing this million-dollar agreement, he sent a telegram congratulating the company for being contracted to build the "Interfaith Message Processor"." | Apr 18 19:45 |

MinceR | indeed | Apr 18 19:49 |
MinceR | http://port70.net/ | Apr 18 19:49 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-port70.net | Gopher: | Apr 18 19:49 | |
msb | "The master Gopherspace search engine is Veronica. Veronica offers a keyword search of all the public Internet Gopher server menu titles. " | Apr 18 19:50 |
MinceR | " name derives from the word "archive" without the v. Alan Emtage has said that contrary to popular belief, there was no association with the Archie Comics and that he despised them.[5] Despite this, other early Internet search technologies such as Jughead and Veronica were named after characters from the comics." | Apr 18 19:50 |
MinceR | another funny tidbit | Apr 18 19:51 |
MinceR | also, there was a "The" at the beginning that i've managed to not select. | Apr 18 19:51 |
cubezzz | that Archie guy never ages | Apr 18 19:51 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 18 19:51 |
cubezzz | he's been in high school for over 70 years | Apr 18 19:51 |
msb | "The master Gopherspace search engine" -- gives the impression of an enormous gopher who knows everything in the worldwide system of gopher tunnels. | Apr 18 19:53 |
MinceR | but can't fit in them, as it's enormous :> | Apr 18 19:54 |
msb | Gophers played an important part in the very funny movie Caddyshack (1980) with Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, and Rodney Dangerfield. Definitely worth watching. | Apr 18 19:55 |
msb | It can be found in that most naughty of naughty places, YIFY. | Apr 18 19:57 |
msb | Or so I once heard. | Apr 18 19:57 |
MinceR | yify? sounds naughty | Apr 18 19:58 |
msb | Yes, it is full of extreme naughtiness, high-res x264 encoded in very small file size. | Apr 18 20:00 |
msb | Or so people say. | Apr 18 20:01 |

msb | Fascism marches on: http://www.activistpost.com/2014/04/kill-switch-included-on-all-cell-phones.html | Apr 19 13:39 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.activistpost.com | Activist Post: ‘Kill Switch’ Included on All Cell Phones Made in U.S. by 2015 [ http://ur1.ca/h49ne ] | Apr 19 13:39 | |
MinceR | what's even sadder, it will probably appear in cell phones made elsewhere, too | Apr 19 13:40 |
msb | All those little black objects that people were holding up at the Bundy Ranch encounter with federal troops were cell phones, recording the troops' actions. | Apr 19 13:40 |
msb | Now cops and feds and any govt will be able to wipe those pix and videos instantly so they can't be used as evidence. | Apr 19 13:41 |
MinceR | i don't quite understand how "required" and "voluntary" go together in this case, though | Apr 19 13:41 |
msb | I don't know, but all the phone mfrs are apparently in on it. Now you'd think they'd be against that "anti-theft" measure, because if someone's phone is stolen, they're just gonna buy another one. Ka-ching! | Apr 19 13:43 |
msb | Let's hope someone makes an open-source phone, or one that can be rooted, and this can be fixed by users. | Apr 19 13:45 |
msb | As it is now, cops have to be very careful. The *only* times they get convicted is when someone records their beating/shooting on a cell-phone. | Apr 19 13:47 |
msb | And more and more people have them. | Apr 19 13:47 |
msb | Damn! Yahoo cut off all my list mail ten days ago because some mail bounced at some time, and hasn't sent me anything. For all I know, the Earth could have ascended into the Fifth Dimension. | Apr 19 14:22 |
msb | It's fascism all over again, I tell ya! | Apr 19 14:23 |
MinceR | it's bad idea to rely on yahoo anyway | Apr 19 14:23 |
msb | Well, I was still getting stuff from a few non-yahoo lists. | Apr 19 14:24 |
msb | But most lists moved to yahoo years ago. It's the only way to access them. | Apr 19 14:25 |
MinceR | anyone could run their own lists on their own server(s) via mailman, for example | Apr 19 14:25 |
MinceR | there's no need to give the opportunity to cut anyone off to a microsoft shell company. | Apr 19 14:26 |
msb | Aggh! Yahoo is owned by MS?? | Apr 19 14:27 |
MinceR | not sure if they're owned by m$, but they serve m$ | Apr 19 14:27 |
msb | How? | Apr 19 14:27 |
MinceR | their "search engine" is nothing but a front end to bìng, for example | Apr 19 14:27 |
msb | I just use google, a front end to the CIA. | Apr 19 14:28 |
MinceR | not to the nsa? | Apr 19 14:28 |
MinceR | also, you can achieve further isolation from google via startpage and/or tor | Apr 19 14:28 |
msb | You're right, sorry. Got my TLAs confused. | Apr 19 14:28 |
msb | With my website, trying to hide is useless. | Apr 19 14:29 |
MinceR | you could still deprive them of some information, though | Apr 19 14:29 |
msb | Nothing that would do me any good. | Apr 19 14:30 |

msb_ | "Even if we are to believe the NSA, and I'm reluctant given its shaky track record, the damage has been done to the tech community." | Apr 13 13:02 |
msb_ | Perhaps all the revelations of NSA spying have benefitted the tech community. | Apr 13 13:03 |
msb_ | Many techies tend to be apolitical, perhaps because technology provides such an enjoyable area of interest, while politics are unpleasant. | Apr 13 13:04 |
msb_ | But now, a whole new array of people have been forced to realize how evil -- untrustworthy and harmful -- the U.S. government actually is. | Apr 13 13:05 |
msb_ | It has hit them where they live. | Apr 13 13:05 |
msb_ | Awareness of the evil is the most important factor in ridding the world of it. | Apr 13 13:06 |
cubezzz | well that was interesting | Apr 13 13:06 |
cubezzz | I actually managed to change the text console | Apr 13 13:06 |
msb_ | More and more people are questioning the 9/11 attacks, which were the pretext for the US/Israeli War of Terror. | Apr 13 13:07 |
msb_ | Every increase in people's awareness of the dominator psychopaths is a step forward. | Apr 13 13:08 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I mangaged to switch from bog standard 80x25 text to vga16fb | Apr 13 13:09 |
cubezzz | anyways, it's in the log if you ever come across it | Apr 13 13:09 |
msb_ | Congrats cubezzz. Yes, IIRC, you can do that with kernel options at startup. | Apr 13 13:10 |
cubezzz | msb_, this is dynamic | Apr 13 13:10 |
msb_ | Oho! | Apr 13 13:10 |
msb_ | So it's a loadable kernel module? | Apr 13 13:11 |
cubezzz | yes | Apr 13 13:11 |
cubezzz | works in 2.4 and 2.6 kernels, although those are the only 2 I've tried so far | Apr 13 13:13 |
cubezzz | now the interesting part is... will this fix a messed up text console | Apr 13 13:13 |
msb_ | Exactly what I was going to ask. | Apr 13 13:14 |
cubezzz | well I have to get it to mess up first to test that | Apr 13 13:14 |
msb_ | How often has it been happening? | Apr 13 13:14 |
cubezzz | ha | Apr 13 13:14 |
cubezzz | it happens about once or twice a month | Apr 13 13:15 |
msb_ | Do you monitor your cpu and mobo temperature sensors? | Apr 13 13:15 |
msb_ | KDE4 system monitor can do that. | Apr 13 13:16 |
cubezzz | you can monitor my sensors :) | Apr 13 13:16 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/cgi-bin/sensors.cgi | Apr 13 13:16 |
cubezzz | I don't think I'm using -12V or -5V | Apr 13 13:18 |
cubezzz | I think -12V was actually dropped from ATX a while back | Apr 13 13:18 |
msb_ | Isn't science wonderful! | Apr 13 13:21 |
msb_ | What program gives you that listing? | Apr 13 13:21 |
cubezzz | it's part of lm_sensors | Apr 13 13:26 |
cubezzz | yeah KDE 3.X probably has something | Apr 13 13:28 |
cubezzz | but it's nice to be able to use it in text mode | Apr 13 13:28 |
msb_ | I just loaded an rpm that supposedly has it, but it's not showing up yet. Have to look in half an hour when this anime' I'm watching is over. | Apr 13 13:33 |
msb_ | There's so much I don't know. I feel like I'm Dilbert going up against Techno-Bill! | Apr 13 13:34 |
cubezzz | well I was in the video game industry for quite a while | Apr 13 13:36 |
cubezzz | so I picked up a bit about low-level stuff | Apr 13 13:37 |
msb_ | At least I was an expert on the IBM-PC. Used to write wedges that went into the BIOS interrupt chains. | Apr 13 13:37 |
cubezzz | probably the coreboot guys know the most | Apr 13 13:37 |

msb_ | Note the use of special words that somehow induce people to turn off their humanity.

But if the govt calls it "war" then Americans accept these MILLION MURDERS as being OK. Whereas one murder makes headlines. | Apr 13 15:30 |

msb_ | Sosumi: Are you saying that when I note that most Americans are mind-controlled so they don't care if their government murders two million people, that I'm "blow[ing] it out of proportion" ? | Apr 13 15:57 |
Sosumi | ppl are so jaded right now about everything that they resort to all sorts of escapism | Apr 13 15:58 |
Sosumi | in order to not hear abou problems any more | Apr 13 15:58 |
Sosumi | which takes to ask you if you know why the math book committed suicide | Apr 13 15:59 |
msb_ | Sosumi: So your explanation is not that they're being mindcontrolled but that they're "jaded"? | Apr 13 15:59 |

msb_ | Well, the main thing is that our news never describes US atrocities accurately in context. | Apr 13 16:02 |
msb_ | It always uses lying propaganda words like "insurgent". | Apr 13 16:02 |
msb_ | The reason is simple: The US news media are controlled by the same ultra-wealthy psychopaths that control the US government. | Apr 13 16:03 |

schestowitz | you might as well call insugents the additional troops that the US send to invasions | Apr 13 16:29 |

Sosumi | isn't that called amarikkkan exceptionalism | Apr 13 16:35 |
msb_ | schestowitz: America imposed Islam on Afghanistan by arming the Mujahiddeen in the 80's as a way of making trouble for the USSR. | Apr 13 16:36 |
msb_ | Islam, and the related Judaism and Christianity, all have a genocidal psychopath deity, and all promote male-supremacy. All are harmful and should not be imposed on anyone. http://www.evilbible.com/ | Apr 13 16:38 |
msb_ | "insurgent" is a lying propaganda word used to label people who are trying to defend their country against a mass-murdering US invasion/takeover. That's what the word is used for. | Apr 13 16:40 |

msb_ | MinceR: OK, first some (alternative) sociology. There are two types of society -- Partnership and Dominator. In partnership societies everyone has fairly equivalent social standing, and they treat each other as they themselves would want to be treated. In dominator societies, there is substantial stratification in wealth and power, with those at the top exploiting those below. | Apr 14 10:14 |
*siel has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) | Apr 14 10:14 | |
msb_ | MinceR: These terms are used in the seminal book _The Chalice and the Blade_, by Riane Eisler. Essential reading! | Apr 14 10:15 |
msb_ | MinceR: Dominator systems are run by psychopaths. | Apr 14 10:16 |
msb_ | MinceR: Now to economics. Capitalism and Socialism each have Partnership and Dominator versions. | Apr 14 10:17 |
msb_ | MinceR: For capitalism, and example of a partnership system would be a wonderful market I shop at. Every morning their trucks go to farms and farmers' markets and buy vegetables, bring them back to the urban market, and sell them cheaper than supermarkets -- often half the price. | Apr 14 10:19 |
msb_ | MinceR: For dominator capitalism, an example is the US corporate/government system, which utilizes mass murder (millions of victims) for profit. 9/11, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, ... | Apr 14 10:21 |
msb_ | MinceR: For partnership socialism, there's Nicaragua, which has a democratically elected socialist government, and sharing of resources such as agricultural equipment. For dominator socialism, there was Stalinist USSR. | Apr 14 10:23 |
msb_ | MinceR's name is greyed out in the nick list. I hope he can scroll back when he returns. | Apr 14 10:24 |

msb_ | Sosumi: Please clarify. | Apr 14 10:48 |
MinceR | msb_: i'm processing it | Apr 14 10:49 |
MinceR | msb_: the theory seems to make sense; i'm not sure about Nicaragua (or whether "partnership socialism" was ever implemented) | Apr 14 10:51 |
MinceR | msb_: i'm looking up the book | Apr 14 10:51 |
MinceR | maybe i'll rea dit | Apr 14 10:53 |
MinceR | s/ d/d / | Apr 14 10:53 |
MinceR | also, i'd say dominator capitalism occurs when the free market is distorted by market actors or the state, and/or when the state is captured by business, or vice versa | Apr 14 10:57 |

msb_ | MinceR: That video of Korten is *really* worth watching! | Apr 14 11:03 |
MinceR | i can't watch videos at work, though | Apr 14 11:03 |
msb_ | Can you watch it at home? | Apr 14 11:04 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 14 11:04 |
msb_ | Great. | Apr 14 11:04 |
msb_ | MinceR: Beyond the two problems of capitalism that you mentioned, another occurs when technology advances to the point where only a small fraction of the population has to work at 40hr/week jobs to produce enough goods and services for everyone. We reached that point some time ago, and have filled in with make-work jobs like advertising, drug enforcement, victimless crime enforcement and large prison populations, real estate and stock speculation, etc. | Apr 14 11:08 |
msb_ | MinceR: But actual unemployment in the US is at about 25% and rising. Unless we adopt partnership principles of sharing and equality, we're going to have a lot of homeless starving people. | Apr 14 11:10 |
MinceR | i'm not worried about that | Apr 14 11:10 |
MinceR | if we can do menial work with machines, we can get more rest | Apr 14 11:10 |
MinceR | as long as the same (or greater) value is produced, why worry about wasting less time with work? | Apr 14 11:11 |
msb_ | Yes, but how do people get money if there are not jobs for them? | Apr 14 11:11 |
MinceR | i don't know | Apr 14 11:11 |
MinceR | what i do know is that once we manage to eliminate scarcity, it won't matter | Apr 14 11:11 |
MinceR | and technology will be instrumental in that | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | We can already eliminate scarcity. | Apr 14 11:12 |
MinceR | hopefully people can gradually transition to more mental jobs in the meantime | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | 99% of the wealth is in the hands of 1% of the population. | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | If it were spread around better, there'd be no scarcity. | Apr 14 11:12 |
msb_ | There aren't enough mental jobs to soak up the unemployed. | Apr 14 11:13 |
msb_ | Not nearly enough. | Apr 14 11:13 |
MinceR | competition is pretty lacking in several markets, more jobs could be created there | Apr 14 11:14 |
msb_ | In the limiting case, machines will provide all goods and services. But no one will have a job or money, so they won't be able to buy any. | Apr 14 11:14 |
msb_ | Competition is just another kind of make-work. | Apr 14 11:14 |
MinceR | except it's useful | Apr 14 11:15 |
msb_ | Lots of different car companies doing the same R&D. It's a waste of effort. | Apr 14 11:15 |
MinceR | without scarcity, nobody will need to buy anything | Apr 14 11:15 |
MinceR | not necessarily the same R&D | Apr 14 11:15 |
MinceR | there are plenty of different paths | Apr 14 11:15 |
msb_ | But in capitalism, someone always owns the machines, and will require payment for their products. | Apr 14 11:16 |
msb_ | Ownership of the producing machines in common, and free access to their products is ...Socialism! | Apr 14 11:16 |
MinceR | i'm not sure if those concepts have meaning when there's no scarcity | Apr 14 11:17 |
msb_ | But what does "no scarcity" mean? Who owns the machines that creates the goods and services? | Apr 14 11:19 |
msb_ | creates--> create | Apr 14 11:19 |
MinceR | everyone could own a swarm of nanobots that could be used to build the tools that are needed | Apr 14 11:21 |
MinceR | for example | Apr 14 11:21 |
msb_ | If the richest 1% didn't suck up 99% of the wealth now, we could all work 16hrs/week and have plenty. | Apr 14 11:21 |
MinceR | it could even be part of their body | Apr 14 11:21 |
msb_ | Nanobots are in the far future. What we have now is computer-controlled robotic machines. They can produce almost everything we need, but if they are owned by capitalists, no one will have a job to get money to buy the machines' products. | Apr 14 11:23 |
msb_ | Nanobots are also very dangerous -- the "gray goo" problem. | Apr 14 11:24 |
msb_ | A little programming error, and the whole planet is consumed. | Apr 14 11:24 |
MinceR | don't let microsoft and apple program them, then | Apr 14 11:25 |
msb_ | Anyone will be able to program them, and some will make mistakes. | Apr 14 11:25 |
MinceR | then we will have countermeasures | Apr 14 11:26 |
cubezzz | someone has to fix the robots, unless you develop robots that can fix other robots | Apr 14 11:26 |
cubezzz | Mincer :) | Apr 14 11:26 |
msb_ | IIRC, Drexler said that everything on Earth will have to have a coating of defensive nanomachines to protect it. Every blade of grass! | Apr 14 11:27 |
cubezzz | all those pie in the sky predictions never come true though | Apr 14 11:27 |
msb_ | Let's hope not! | Apr 14 11:27 |
cubezzz | no HAL 9000, no true AI | Apr 14 11:27 |
cubezzz | a self-programming computer, laughable | Apr 14 11:28 |
MinceR | what's laughable about that? | Apr 14 11:28 |
msb_ | But even a stupid AI, if programmed to protect itself and connected to military resources, could take over. | Apr 14 11:28 |
cubezzz | we got windows instead | Apr 14 11:28 |
MinceR | windows is dying | Apr 14 11:28 |
cubezzz | no computer can do what a human baby does | Apr 14 11:29 |
msb_ | Asimov wrote various stories about robes that figured out how to circumvent the Three Laws! | Apr 14 11:29 |
MinceR | a human baby might be a computer | Apr 14 11:29 |
MinceR | and a future human baby might contain computers :> | Apr 14 11:30 |
cubezzz | augmentation, yes | Apr 14 11:31 |
cubezzz | that's possible | Apr 14 11:31 |
msb_ | A clever but immoral lawyerbot could trash the Three Laws in microseconds! | Apr 14 11:31 |
MinceR | and human babies can exist in a universe simulated by a computer | Apr 14 11:31 |
cubezzz | progress is happening, it's just slower than Sci-Fi predicted, much much slower | Apr 14 11:32 |
MinceR | also, every blade of grass is already constantly fighting with pathogens on the cellular scale :> | Apr 14 11:33 |
cubezzz | my desktop hasn't really changed much in the last 10 years | Apr 14 11:47 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/old-desktop-2005.png | Apr 14 11:47 |
msb_ | MinceR: But those pathogens had to *evolve* their methods of attack -- very slow. Nanomachines, with nanocomputers, could simulate and evaluate attacks zillions of times faster. The poor blade of grass wouldn't have a chance without a layer of protective nanomachnes. | Apr 14 11:48 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/desktop-2014.png | Apr 14 11:49 |
MinceR | msb_: not necessarily a layer -- the nanomachines could also be inside the blade of grass | Apr 14 11:50 |
msb_ | And inside every food crop. Those diamond-based machines would make 'em really crunchy! | Apr 14 11:51 |
MinceR | they could be ordered to come out | Apr 14 11:51 |
msb_ | "Sorry, we like it here." | Apr 14 11:52 |
MinceR | then send in the killer nanomachines | Apr 14 11:52 |
MinceR | also, i'm not sure how much we'd need food crops once we're infused with nanomachines and quite possibly not human anymore :> | Apr 14 11:52 |
msb_ | I believe STTOS dealt with that situation: "EXISTENCE!... SURVIVAL... must cancel out... programming! " | Apr 14 11:54 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 14 11:54 |
msb_ | If only Ruk had squeezed Kirk a little harder... | Apr 14 11:54 |
cubezzz | mind transfer | Apr 14 11:56 |
cubezzz | some philosophical implications there | Apr 14 11:57 |
msb_ | STTOS and Kirk trashed every single instance of advanced technology they could find, including immortality. | Apr 14 11:57 |
cubezzz | ok, now we will upload your mind into windows 35 | Apr 14 11:57 |
cubezzz | uhhh, no thanks :) | Apr 14 11:57 |
cubezzz | he didn't trash Trelane's parents | Apr 14 11:58 |
cubezzz | not sure if that counts as tech though | Apr 14 11:58 |
msb_ | Anyhow What Are Little Girls Made Of? was self-contradictory. Kirk's justification for destroying the bot-creation machinery was that the resulting ghost-in-the-shell had no emotions. But the "native" bots did. It could have been fixed. But no immortality for us! | Apr 14 12:01 |
cubezzz | the Thasians were also quite advanced | Apr 14 12:01 |
cubezzz | lots of uber-aliens in TOS | Apr 14 12:01 |
msb_ | When Spock got happy in another ep, Kirk made some sound generator that ruined it. What a schmuck! | Apr 14 12:02 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 14 12:02 |
cubezzz | another thing we don't really have that TOS did: computers you can talk to | Apr 14 12:03 |
msb_ | *Working* | Apr 14 12:03 |
MinceR | we can talk to any computer | Apr 14 12:07 |
MinceR | not many of them listen, though :> | Apr 14 12:07 |
cubezzz | the last big step forward was www | Apr 14 12:08 |
msb_ | WWW/Linux/FOSS is the nervous system of the evolving World Community | Apr 14 12:19 |
MinceR | what about IRC? :> | Apr 14 12:19 |
msb_ | Dat's good too! | Apr 14 12:19 |
cubezzz | IRC predates WWW :) | Apr 14 12:20 |
cubezzz | of course Microsoft had to try and muck things up with MSNP | Apr 14 12:21 |
MinceR | and IRCX | Apr 14 12:22 |
msb_ | With WWW/Linux/FOSS, Cannabis, and Partnership/Eisler/Korten sociology, we can have a "soft landing" from the current fascist control system. Everybody just relax, give the fascist rulers tens of millions of dollars each if they promise not to make any more trouble.. | Apr 14 12:23 |
cubezzz | I've found there | Apr 14 12:25 |
cubezzz | 's another force in software beyond Embrace, Extend, Entinguish | Apr 14 12:25 |
msb_ | Psychopaths can only survive inside a cloud of lying propaganda that hides them. But with the Web, they are entirely exposed. | Apr 14 12:25 |
msb_ | Evolve! | Apr 14 12:26 |
cubezzz | there's also abandonment and resurrection | Apr 14 12:26 |
msb_ | Resurrection (1980) with Ellen Burstyn is a great movie! *Not* xtian propaganda. | Apr 14 12:27 |

Windows 8 started out with a very minimalist UI that has with every update become not only more like its predecessors but also more cluttered with additional ways to complete the same basic task.

msb_ | MinceR: Hi! Did you watch that video of David Korten? | Apr 15 12:34 |
MinceR | not yet | Apr 15 12:34 |
msb_ | It's all about changing the story, the context, in your mind through which you see things. | Apr 15 12:36 |
msb_ | MinceR: He's not saying people should give up their private propitty. But we should have sharing and empathy as primary values shaping our economic system so that everyone can thrive, not just those at the top and the (ever-shrinking now) middle. | Apr 15 12:39 |
msb_ | MinceR: There's a deep, fundamental difference between families having their own home, cars, etc., and Monsanto and Microsoft having so much money that they can hurt people and buy the government, and no one can stop them. | Apr 15 12:41 |
MinceR | i think the main problem there is that m$ is incentivized to do harm | Apr 15 12:42 |
MinceR | and not punished | Apr 15 12:42 |
msb_ | MinceR: Conservatives and Libertarians always point us toward families, so we conclude that, of course they should have their private property. But they point us away from the ultra-wealthy and corporations that harm people for profit with their private property. | Apr 15 12:43 |
MinceR | what has liberalism have to do with families? | Apr 15 12:44 |
msb_ | Psychopaths can always find ways to make a profit by harming people. Reality incentivizes them. | Apr 15 12:44 |
msb_ | Liberalism says (or at least should say) that the economic system should help families to thrive, instead of taking 99% of the wealth and giving it to the 1% richest people, which is what we have now. | Apr 15 12:46 |
msb_ | MinceR: If rich people were satisfied when they had enough wealth to live, or even 10 or 100 times the amount they need to live, everything would be fine, because they'd leave the rest for the non-rich. | Apr 15 12:50 |
msb_ | MinceR: But they're never satisfied. A pigeon in a Skinner-box keeps pecking the switch until the cage fills up with food and it suffocates. But the wealthy under capitalism keep grabbing more and more until the non-wealthy 99% starve and lose their homes. | Apr 15 12:52 |
MinceR | punishment and incapacitation disincentivizes psychopaths. | Apr 15 12:53 |
msb_ | So how would you punish and incapacitate corporate owners who keep most of the profits for themselves instead of paying most of it to their workers as wages? | Apr 15 12:54 |
msb_ | MinceR: Even though the corporate owners say that the profits belong to them as "private property" because they own the corporations. | Apr 15 12:56 |
msb_ | MinceR: That's how the "private propery" concept causes harm when it's extended to the realm of great wealth. | Apr 15 12:57 |
MinceR | that's when the corporate veil needs to be pierced. | Apr 15 13:01 |
cubezzz | well one way to share the wealth is to buy shares | Apr 15 13:22 |

msb_ | MinceR: But once the corporate veil is pierced, what's the next step? If the main crime being committed by corporate owners is paying the workers too little and keeping too much for themselves, how do you fix that within the current rules/framework of capitalism? | Apr 15 13:32 |
MinceR | that doesn't seem to be the main crime in the case you quoted | Apr 15 13:32 |
MinceR | also, i see no reason why workers should be stuck with microsoft, other than microsoft making it difficult or impossible for competitors to exist and operate | Apr 15 13:33 |
msb_ | That's the main crime in general! | Apr 15 13:33 |
msb_ | That's why 1% of the population has 99% of the wealth, and the other 99% of the people have to make do on a total of 1%. | Apr 15 13:34 |
msb_ | That's a wealth ratio of 10,000 to 1 ! | Apr 15 13:38 |

msb_ | Yes, that bird is slightly ticked-off. | Apr 15 14:19 |

cubezzz | you lose contrast by boosting the gamma too much | Apr 15 14:43 |
msb_ | My settings are such that the KMFMS pic looks fine, but this one needs gamma=2 | Apr 15 14:44 |
msb_ | No wonder people need $2000 photometry setups to get this right. | Apr 15 14:45 |
cubezzz | folks are way too pedestrian in their choices of operating systems | Apr 15 14:46 |
cubezzz | back in the 80s we really did have more choices | Apr 15 14:46 |
cubezzz | there was Apple, Atari, Commodore, and Tandy (probably other ones I've forgotten) | Apr 15 14:46 |

msb_ | Those who do use Linux, of course. | Apr 15 14:48 |
msb_ | Anyhow, I'm using the settings that make most movies look right, and it needs gamma 2 on the server pic. | Apr 15 14:49 |

msb_ | MinceR: Wow, that is one seriously weird gif file! | Apr 15 15:06 |
msb_ | I wanted to single-step it. mplayer wouldn't play it (no surprise). I fed it to xv, which gave about 400 error messages and wouldn't quit! When I deleted each one it put up another, and when I switched to another desktop it came back and put the error message under the mouse pointer. I wanted to type killall xv but I couldn't. Eventually it ran down and quit. Gwenview (and firefox) display it, but I don't know how to make either one pause. | Apr 15 15:09 |
msb_ | On another topic, I hope everyone has seen the movie Antitrust (2001). If not, there's a good copy of it in that naughty place right now. | Apr 15 15:12 |

DaemonFC | Someone told me something that I found to be disturbing a couple of days ago. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | The school systems in Indiana are not just wasting taxpayer dollars on Crapple iBads anymore. They're forcing parents, even poor ones, to pay full price for these malicious, proprietary, user-subjugating devices. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | To add insult to injury, the schools *could* buy Chromebooks for $150 each that do everything the iBad can and more, which shows how wasteful their buying practices are. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | Crapple takes the money from the government contracts, and uses some of it to turn around and buy our elections, making sure that politicians force parents and taxpayers to buy more Crapple iCrap later on. | Apr 15 15:31 |
DaemonFC | 2 secs · | Apr 15 15:33 |
DaemonFC | Then, while all this expensive Crapple iCrap is being "procured", I got a letter in the mail the other day from Dan Leonard, telling us how frugal the Indiana Politburo Republicans are being with our money. | Apr 15 15:33 |
DaemonFC | There's nothing like fascism that comes back and pisses on you while it's telling you that it's raining. | Apr 15 15:33 |

msb_ | The IPud doesn't have a real keyboard, so it's pretty tedious to *originate* content. Tablets are designed for consumption of content, and users should keep their mouths shut. | Apr 15 15:42 |

DaemonFC | I got my new cable modem/router. | Apr 16 12:34 |
DaemonFC | Much nicer than Comcast's. | Apr 16 12:34 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 16 12:37 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: It included a copy of the GNU General Public License. | Apr 16 12:59 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 16 12:59 |
DaemonFC | Under system requirements, it says "Linux" is a supported operating system. | Apr 16 12:59 |
DaemonFC | Well, now I can get rid of another one of life's little ripoffs. | Apr 16 13:00 |
DaemonFC | Modem rental fee. | Apr 16 13:00 |
cubezzz | I did that 10 years ago :) | Apr 16 13:00 |
DaemonFC | Yeah. I was waiting for a good deal on a combination unit that supported the latest standards. | Apr 16 13:01 |
cubezzz | how much was the rental fee? | Apr 16 13:02 |
DaemonFC | I didn't feel like getting stuck on something that didn't support ipv6 or DOCSIS 3. | Apr 16 13:02 |
DaemonFC | $8 a month | Apr 16 13:02 |
cubezzz | 8 * 12 * 10 = $960 | Apr 16 13:02 |
DaemonFC | The price for the Netgear N450 cable modem/router on Amazon fell to $99.99. | Apr 16 13:02 |
DaemonFC | And I got 3% off for using my Amazon Visa. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | yeah, but up until 2012, it was only $3 a month. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | Then in 2013, it was $5, and then in 2014, it is now $8. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | So, basically, the rental fee is killing you now, compared to owning. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | It pays for itself in 12 months, and then starts saving you money. | Apr 16 13:03 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: Yeah. Over 10 years, you can rent a modem and pay for it 10 times over, or you can own it and spend the remaining $900 any way you choose. :) | Apr 16 13:06 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: You forgot tax, which in Indiana, is 7%. | Apr 16 13:07 |
DaemonFC | So 56 cents a month in tax makes the real rental cost $8.56 a month. | Apr 16 13:07 |
DaemonFC | $1,027.20 over 10 years, *if* they don't raise it again. | Apr 16 13:08 |
cubezzz | $8 is a rip-off | Apr 16 13:08 |
cubezzz | In Canada they don't even sell DSL modems in stores | Apr 16 13:10 |
cubezzz | so I bought mind directly from Ovislink Canada | Apr 16 13:11 |
cubezzz | s/mind/mine/ | Apr 16 13:11 |
cubezzz | just like they don't sell DVR's that record antenna broadcasts | Apr 16 13:12 |
cubezzz | they are all tied to Rogers and Bell | Apr 16 13:12 |
cubezzz | I remember I called one store and they said "No one provides DSL modems except the ISP" | Apr 16 13:13 |
cubezzz | totally false | Apr 16 13:13 |
cubezzz | but I deal directly with a freenet so no problem there | Apr 16 13:14 |
cubezzz | so yeah, a lot of people are getting squeezed by content providers | Apr 16 13:18 |
msb_ | Another point to note is that even though electronics gets cheaper to produce every year, the fee we're forced to pay to content (or Internet) providers for their *usage* of electronics for our needs keeps increasing. They just gouge us more and more every year because they *can*. There's nothing stopping them. | Apr 16 13:38 |
msb_ | That's another problem with Capitalism. The only force that pushes prices lower is competition. But in many areas there IS NO COMPETITION. In the San Francisco Bay Area, where I live, Comcast is the ONLY cable company -- mandated by law. The only competition is DSL, which is much lower speed. | Apr 16 13:42 |

Sosumi | reading "morals and dogma" atm | Apr 16 21:16 |
Sosumi | and I've found on passage in the book that says what I've been saying all along | Apr 16 21:16 |
Sosumi | about religion and cult being nothing more than an "ignorant" interpretation of the celestial plane | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | aka planets and orbits | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | We know, through a precise testimony in the ancient annals of Tsur, that the principal | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | festivity of Mal-karth, the incarnation of the Sun at the Winter Solstice, held at Tsur, was | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | called his rebirth or his awakening, and that it was celebrated by means of a pyre, on | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | which the god was supposed to regain, through the aid of fire, a new life. This festival | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | was celebrated in the month Peritius (Barith), the second day of which corresponded to | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | the 25th of December. KHUR-UM, King of Tyre, Movers says, first performed this | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | ceremony. These facts we learn from Josephus, Servius on the AEneid, and the | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | Dionysiacs of Nonnus; and through a coincidence that cannot be fortuitous, the same | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | day was at Rome the Dies Natalis Solis Invicti, the festal day of the invincible Sun. Under | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | this title, HERCULES, HAR-acles, was worshipped at Tsur. Thus, while the temple was | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | being erected, the death and resurrection of a Sun-God was annually represented at | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | Tsur, by Solomon's ally, at the winter solstice, by the pyre of MAL-KARIH, the Tsurian | Apr 16 21:17 |
Sosumi | Haracles. | Apr 16 21:17 |
cubezzz | can you explain chocolate easter bunnies? :) | Apr 16 21:18 |
Sosumi | well, it is a fertility cult in the honor of ishtar | Apr 16 21:19 |
Sosumi | in which everyone engaged in massive orgies | Apr 16 21:19 |
Sosumi | since bunnies reproduce fast | Apr 16 21:19 |

Sosumi | to the name of Solomon | Apr 16 21:33 |
Sosumi | but I can say according to a theologian friend of mine | Apr 16 21:33 |
Sosumi | that it is just the name of the sun in three difference languages | Apr 16 21:34 |

Sosumi | no only the console is weaker but has no games | Apr 17 13:41 |
Sosumi | and the major iterations of the original xbox and xbox 360 have already kind of ended | Apr 17 13:42 |

msb | Wiki says the PS4 runs a fork of FreeBSD, but I think that since BSD is not under GPL, the PS4 does not have to be programmable by the user and can be an "appliance" rather than a general purpose computer. Is this correct? | Apr 17 13:55 |
Sosumi | correct | Apr 17 13:56 |
msb | That sucks! | Apr 17 13:56 |
Sosumi | well ofc it does | Apr 17 13:56 |
Sosumi | just ask the game developers having to fork for a ps4 dev kit when they could instead just grab a ps4 off the shelf and start "deving" | Apr 17 13:57 |
msb | This is why the GPL is so important, so corporate pigs can't profit off the work of the free World Community without giving back to it. | Apr 17 13:57 |
msb | All praise to RMS! | Apr 17 13:57 |
Sosumi | the only way that'd change would be if suddenly M$ let ppl use the xbone as a general purpose computer | Apr 17 13:58 |
Sosumi | even if limited but as long as it could a regular desktop for home use | Apr 17 13:58 |
msb | I'd rather use a PS4 than anything from Microshit. | Apr 17 13:59 |
Sosumi | then sony would probably bring back the gnu/linux support | Apr 17 13:59 |
Sosumi | that they took away when they launched the ps3 slim | Apr 17 13:59 |
Sosumi | back in 2009 | Apr 17 13:59 |
msb | Yeah, that was a bummer. | Apr 17 13:59 |
Sosumi | well, you know that you still need m$ to develop for the ps3 | Apr 17 14:00 |
msb | You'd think they would sell more of them if people could use them freely. | Apr 17 14:00 |
Sosumi | I think it works through a visual studio plugin | Apr 17 14:00 |
msb | Feh. If it was open and the details were known, somebody would make a module for it for Eclipse. | Apr 17 14:02 |
msb | Last time I used an MS compiler (many years ago) you had to turn off all the optimizations or it would write severely erroneous code. | Apr 17 14:04 |
msb | The Prime Directive is: Never use anything from Microsoft! | Apr 17 14:05 |
msb | If you do, your soul will turn black and fall off. | Apr 17 14:06 |
Sosumi | no idea | Apr 17 14:09 |
Sosumi | I'm yet to try VS | Apr 17 14:09 |
msb | Yes! This is a matter of Good vs Evil. Seriously. | Apr 17 14:09 |
Sosumi | but from what read, ppl use intel compilers with vs | Apr 17 14:09 |
msb | I imagine the ms compilers work now. But the company is so viciously evil that it should be completely shunned. | Apr 17 14:10 |

cubezzz | I think it's important to remember FOSS is more that just linux | Apr 17 14:23 |
cubezzz | technically if you have the source code, the compilers/assemblers, and a working computer you have software freedom | Apr 17 14:24 |
cubezzz | the new chromebooks even have SeaBIOS built-in, so the 16-bit BIOS itself is FOSS | Apr 17 14:24 |

cubezzz | actually fc1 was kind of bloated too | Apr 17 18:15 |
cubezzz | and to be fair the dynamically linked stuff is smaller | Apr 17 18:17 |

schestowitz__ | I agree with the cherrypicking attitude when building a stable system - but the cherries should be picked by the users, shouldn't they? Why limit the choice this way when the rest of the article praises the availability of choice on the GUI-toolkit side? | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | Wouldn't it be better to turn Fedora into Fedora Workstation (with more polish and optimised, presets) and make Fedora Workstation really workstation-ready? I mean, it's we developers who know what we need best - e.g. I mostly do Python and C++ library development and I need tools and environment which are radically different than, for example, those needed by a programmer who develops webapps. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | I see no way for a pre-set desktop that would be good for both of us. But - I see a way for a desktop which comes bare-bones but offers advanced tools to install required programs, toolkits, GUI-environments etc. That makes a good job at helping the user manage itself and does not get in the way by saying *Hey, I'd like you do this MY WAY, otherwise it will be oh-so-hard". | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | Such system is truly workstation-ready in my opinion. Let us not forget that there is there is the work part in the workstation word. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | And, last but - for me - not least, my usual rant about the focus on web applications. I have been, am and will be opposing the move to web-interface-only programs, and those who will not work without seamless access to net. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | This point of view was shaped by my personal experiences, so take not that it is a biased opinion - I have always, and in fact I still do, had bad network access. If a program requires a constant access to the Network it's a no-go for me. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | I praise git (and I really mean it!) for being local-goes-global and not the other way round. It's a real blessing and an engineering excellence that despite being a tool to work over the network it needs reliable net access only for some 15 minutes to actually push local changes and pull upstream. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | And this is how people should be able to work - not worrying that they need something that is not immediately available on their local workstation. | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | Maybe I am wrong, I am definitely no authority, but I think that when the real work is done webapps should take the back sits and let real desktop programs take the first spot. I do not deny their usefulness - but I consider them more as interfaces to inspect the results of work (e.g. GitHub) or as a tools for discussion (e.g. Loomio). | Apr 17 19:02 |
schestowitz__ | Well, that were my two (actually more like twelve) cents. | Apr 17 19:02 |

Sosumi | well, the end of the week :) | Apr 18 07:20 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I completly forgot about the Ubuntu 14.04 LTS release yesterday | Apr 18 07:23 |
sebsebseb | since other stuff | Apr 18 07:23 |
sebsebseb | ah well | Apr 18 07:23 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: altough the Ubuntu release party channel may have been fun so hmm | Apr 18 07:23 |
Sosumi | I'm not a fan of ubuntu | Apr 18 07:23 |
sebsebseb | altough it shows how my life has changed | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | years ago I would have not had much else to think about really and so going there no problem | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I was going to do a talk yesterday, but | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | un well and had travel issues and what not as well, so nope, another time instead | Apr 18 07:24 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no I don't really like Ubuntu that much either since 2009 | Apr 18 07:25 |
sebsebseb | ,but it's still one of the best chances at Desktop Linux going more main streame | Apr 18 07:26 |
Sosumi | oddly enough I always have to do in order to occupy myself | Apr 18 07:26 |
sebsebseb | to be honest I don't really care about that as much either these days really, but someone in my family is still running unsupported Windwos XP for now, which I am not happy about of course | Apr 18 07:26 |
sebsebseb | now I just need to test a ISO for what will become Mageia 4.1 | Apr 18 07:26 |
sebsebseb | which is meant to fix isolinux bugs, where there's issues on old hardware, and the computer won't boot up, from Live CD | Apr 18 07:26 |
sebsebseb | CD's | Apr 18 07:27 |
sebsebseb | and well hopefuly that will work and :) | Apr 18 07:27 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: you always have to what to occupy yourself? | Apr 18 07:27 |
Sosumi | gym, classes, studying, readying, projects | Apr 18 07:27 |
Sosumi | there's always stuff to do | Apr 18 07:27 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: not in my current life to be honest | Apr 18 07:28 |
sebsebseb | ,but here and there yes | Apr 18 07:28 |
sebsebseb | or there is stuff I could do, but don't just do. getting rid of more life junk, sorting out the driiving thorey, just two examples | Apr 18 07:29 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: to many old CD R's and what not here still | Apr 18 07:29 |
sebsebseb | to go through and get rid of most of them | Apr 18 07:29 |

sebsebseb | Sosumi: that's blocked in this country | Apr 18 07:31 |
sebsebseb | by ISP's | Apr 18 07:31 |
sebsebseb | since the goverment requested that | Apr 18 07:31 |
Sosumi | plus most of the stuff I hear | Apr 18 07:31 |
Sosumi | is from artists that are already dead | Apr 18 07:31 |
Sosumi | I'm sure Tchaikovsky wouldn't mind | Apr 18 07:32 |
sebsebseb | ok, but the record companies still want to profit off that hmm | Apr 18 07:32 |
Sosumi | nor Ronnie Dio | Apr 18 07:32 |
Sosumi | that is a problem | Apr 18 07:33 |
Sosumi | once the record label stops printing the album for 3 years after the artist's death | Apr 18 07:33 |
Sosumi | the record label should relinquish its rights | Apr 18 07:33 |
Sosumi | just one example | Apr 18 07:34 |
MinceR | then they'll never stop printing albums | Apr 18 07:34 |
Sosumi | but what if ppl don't buy them | Apr 18 07:34 |
Sosumi | they print according to demmand | Apr 18 07:34 |
MinceR | just like how movie franchise licensees never stop making comic book movie reboots | Apr 18 07:34 |
MinceR | so they don't lose the license | Apr 18 07:34 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: why do you say 3 years after | Apr 18 07:34 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ? | Apr 18 07:34 |
MinceR | Sosumi: they can keep making a very low number every 3 years | Apr 18 07:35 |
Sosumi | good point | Apr 18 07:35 |
Sosumi | but I just said that as an example on the spur of the moment | Apr 18 07:35 |

schestowitz__ | "yes, we agree" | Apr 18 18:39 |
msb | schestowitz__: There are many other people saying that the US is fascist other than the groups you mentioned. In fact, the phrases you mentioned are often used to unjustifiably smear honest researchers and advocates. "Conspiracy theorists" is a term invented by the government to discredit JFK assassination researchers. | Apr 18 18:39 |
msb | "Fascism is Corporatism" -- Mussolini | Apr 18 18:41 |
msb | Corporations and ultra-wealthy individuals totally control govt by bribery. They bribe the govt to make laws favorable to them. They bribe the govt to invade and destroy nations that have socialistic economies, so the corporations can then go into those nations and exploit the workers there. | Apr 18 18:43 |
msb | schestowitz__: The fact that some crazy evil people say that something is true does not make it false. To say that it does is a logical fallacy. In this case, it would prevent people from realizing that the US is in fact fascist even when the soldiers are goose-stepping down the streets and shooting people. "Oh no, we can't use the word 'fascism' -- people would associate us with 'conspiracy theorists' and Ron Paul supporters." | Apr 18 18:48 |
msb | schestowitz__: If most people are mind-controlled by lying media and government propagands, thanks to Edward Bernays -- which they are -- then censoring our ideas and speech based on what most people would think PREVENTS US FROM THINKING ACCURATELY. | Apr 18 18:51 |

DFS | Is Roy Spamowitz here? | Apr 18 18:51 |
*DFS is now known as Guest36863 | Apr 18 18:51 | |
Guest36863 | He used to spam comp.os.linux.advocacy with 35-50 NEWS posts per day | Apr 18 18:52 |
Guest36863 | For 5 years straight | Apr 18 18:52 |
MinceR | i'm not aware of any person called "Roy Spamowitz" | Apr 18 18:52 |
Guest36863 | He was a degenerate liar, too. | Apr 18 18:52 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, Spamowitz now says he's an 'advocate of fair competition' | Apr 18 18:52 |
MinceR | how does this concern this channel? | Apr 18 18:52 |
Guest36863 | So, when will Spamowitz begin calling for Linux to put price tags on everything? | Apr 18 18:53 |
msb | DFS is one of the most active pro-Microsoft anti-Linux posters in comp.os.linux.advocacy. | Apr 18 18:53 |
MinceR | somehow i suspected that | Apr 18 18:53 |
Guest36863 | I'm not pro-MS | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | I don't even like them. | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | I like some of their software. | Apr 18 18:54 |
msb | Apparently he posted first under the nick of "DFS", and then changed to "Guest36863". | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | I didn't change - the channel changed it for me. | Apr 18 18:54 |
MinceR | he probably didn't identify for DFS | Apr 18 18:54 |
MinceR | no, the channel did not change it | Apr 18 18:54 |
MinceR | NickServ changed it. | Apr 18 18:54 |
Guest36863 | So change it back. | Apr 18 18:54 |
MinceR | it is none of our concern. | Apr 18 18:55 |
MinceR | don't you ever read your status/server window? | Apr 18 18:55 |
Guest36863 | It was flashing by/ jumping around | Apr 18 18:55 |
msb | DFS routinely refers to Roy as "Spamowitz". | Apr 18 18:55 |
Guest36863 | So, when will the 'advocate of fair competition' begin calling for price tags on Linux distros and apps? | Apr 18 18:56 |
Guest36863 | Never, that's when. | Apr 18 18:56 |
MinceR | why should any advocate of fair competition begin calling for that? | Apr 18 18:56 |
Guest36863 | Extremely stupid question. | Apr 18 18:56 |
msb | Which means that he can't answer it. | Apr 18 18:57 |
MinceR | you'll need to adjust that attitude of yours, Guest36863. | Apr 18 18:57 |
Guest36863 | Fair competition would require Linux distros/apps to charge similar prices as those found on commercial software products. | Apr 18 18:57 |
MinceR | no, it would not. | Apr 18 18:57 |
Guest36863 | Yes, it would. | Apr 18 18:57 |

msb | People create GNU/Linux/FOSS out of enjoyment and generosity and therefore give it away for free. | Apr 18 18:58 |
MinceR | users contribute in exchange for the software -- bug reports, code fixes/patches, etc. | Apr 18 18:58 |
Guest36863 | Add a price tag and watch the howls... | Apr 18 18:58 |
*MinceR adds a price tag saying "0" | Apr 18 18:58 | |
*MinceR waits for the howls | Apr 18 18:58 | |
msb | I used to buy Suse boxed sets. | Apr 18 18:58 |
Guest36863 | But you didn't pay nearly the equivalent of the commercial code. | Apr 18 18:59 |
MinceR | i also didn't receive the equivalent of the commercial code, thankfully | Apr 18 18:59 |
cubezzz | you can charge for discs, manuals, etc | Apr 18 18:59 |
MinceR | as the code you're advertising is of horribly low quality. | Apr 18 18:59 |
cubezzz | there's no rule saying you can't | Apr 18 18:59 |
msb | DFS has been spamming COLA for many years. He will never change his mind. He's probably paid by Microsoft. | Apr 18 18:59 |
Guest36863 | If they create GNU/LInux/FOSS out of generosity, why do most projects ask for donations? | Apr 18 18:59 |
Guest36863 | Only Spamowitz spammed cola with off-topic NEWS.. 5 years straight | Apr 18 19:00 |
msb | People have found proof that Microsoft has employees posting to various FOSS forums. | Apr 18 19:00 |
MinceR | why is news off-topic on COLA? | Apr 18 19:00 |
Guest36863 | of 35-50 posts per day. Full of lies and deceit. | Apr 18 19:00 |
msb | Full of great information. | Apr 18 19:00 |
Guest36863 | If MS does have people posting to forums, so what? | Apr 18 19:00 |
MinceR | and why do i get the suspicion that what you call "lies and deceit" were merely facts that were inconvenient to microsoft munchkins? | Apr 18 19:01 |
msb | I wish Roy would start it again. | Apr 18 19:01 |
Guest36863 | They ought to pay people to counter the lies of Linux idiots. | Apr 18 19:01 |
*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Apr 18 19:01 | |
MinceR | no, they paid people to masquerade as grassroots support for microsoft. | Apr 18 19:01 |
Guest36863 | So? | Apr 18 19:01 |
MinceR | that's the "lies and deceit" you're looking for. | Apr 18 19:01 |
cubezzz | astro turfing you mean | Apr 18 19:01 |
Guest36863 | Who pays Linux "advocates" to lie about MS and Windows? | Apr 18 19:01 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 18 19:01 |
MinceR | GNU/Linux advocates do not need to lie about m$ and windows, as both are atrocious enough as they are. | Apr 18 19:02 |
msb | "If MS does have people posting to forums, so what?" The problem is that they don't SAY they work for Microsoft, and are posting to increase MS's profits. | Apr 18 19:02 |
Guest36863 | They don't need to lie about them, but they do it anyway. | Apr 18 19:02 |
MinceR | again, what makes this relevant to this channel? | Apr 18 19:02 |
msb | Nothing. He'll just do it until somebody blocks him. | Apr 18 19:03 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, my social visit was to ask Spamowitz - the 'advocate of fair competition' - why he doesn't spend years calling for Linux distros and apps to attach a reasonable price tag? | Apr 18 19:03 |
MinceR | i believe there's no person called "Spamowitz" here | Apr 18 19:03 |
Guest36863 | Pass the message onto him for me. Watch him run. | Apr 18 19:03 |
MinceR | nobody of that name responded | Apr 18 19:04 |
MinceR | looks like you're looking in the wrong place. | Apr 18 19:04 |
msb | In a free market, people set the prices of their products as they please. | Apr 18 19:04 |
Guest36863 | There's no M$ or 'munchkins' either. | Apr 18 19:04 |
Guest36863 | So what are you whining about? | Apr 18 19:04 |
MinceR | except for people like you, yes | Apr 18 19:04 |
msb | There are other forms of income than money, such as the satisfaction of helping other people. | Apr 18 19:05 |
Guest36863 | If that's all they're looking for, why do they ask for donations? | Apr 18 19:05 |
msb | DFS is a psychopath and has no empathy, so he doesn't know about that. | Apr 18 19:05 |
MinceR | Guest36863: this might be surprising to you, but despite what bill gates believes, not all software development happens solely in the interest of profits. | Apr 18 19:05 |
Guest36863 | How would you know what Gates believes? | Apr 18 19:06 |
MinceR | from his public letter to "hobbyists" | Apr 18 19:06 |
MinceR | but you haven't read that either, have you? | Apr 18 19:06 |
Guest36863 | He, MS and Windows have done so much more for the world than 'Free software' will do in 1000 lifetimes. | Apr 18 19:06 |
MinceR | free software will indeed never do nearly so much harm as he did | Apr 18 19:07 |
MinceR | Guest36863: so why are you advertising m$ here anyway? what's in it for you? | Apr 18 19:07 |
MinceR | do they pay you? | Apr 18 19:07 |
Guest36863 | So much harm that the world runs to MS throwing $80 billion a year at them. | Apr 18 19:07 |
MinceR | or have you merely made an ill-thought investment in them and aren't willing to learn anything else? | Apr 18 19:07 |
MinceR | yes, m$ corruption and market manipulation has led to them extorting a lot of money from people and states | Apr 18 19:08 |
Guest36863 | Same idiocy found in the tiny brains of all FOSS wackos: "MS is paying you", "your job is threatened by Linux", blah blah | Apr 18 19:08 |
MinceR | for example, the hungarian government pays them a lot for crap they hand to students and lie that they're gratis | Apr 18 19:08 |
MinceR | Guest36863: you still haven't answered any questions. | Apr 18 19:08 |
Guest36863 | What questions? | Apr 18 19:09 |
MinceR | the ones i asked you | Apr 18 19:09 |
msb | Microsoft has never, and probably will never, produce software that assists and augments human thought processes as effectively as GNU/Linux does. | Apr 18 19:09 |
Guest36863 | MS isn't paying me. | Apr 18 19:09 |
MinceR | so, cognitive dissonance, then? | Apr 18 19:09 |
MinceR | or just plain old brain damage? | Apr 18 19:09 |
Guest36863 | 'assists and augments human thought processes'.... BWAHA!!! | Apr 18 19:10 |
Guest36863 | What kind of nutjobs are you people? | Apr 18 19:10 |
MinceR | msb: i think your words are confusing his tiny mind | Apr 18 19:10 |
MinceR | Guest36863: yes, what kind of nutjob are you? | Apr 18 19:10 |
msb | " <Guest36863> If MS does have people posting to forums, so what?" | Apr 18 19:10 |
Guest36863 | Hey, I bet both you dunces (msb and MinceR) have Windows jobs... most 'Linux advocates' do. | Apr 18 19:11 |
msb | He as much as admitted it right there. | Apr 18 19:11 |
MinceR | Guest36863: that's a bet you'd lose | Apr 18 19:11 |
MinceR | Guest36863: so, do you have any job at all? | Apr 18 19:11 |
msb | I think he's doing his job right now, right here. | Apr 18 19:11 |
cubezzz | I use a bunch of different operating sytems | Apr 18 19:12 |
Guest36863 | What does it matter whether I have a Windows job, a Linux job, or no job? | Apr 18 19:12 |
MinceR | Guest36863: if it doesn't matter, why do you ask us about it? | Apr 18 19:12 |
Guest36863 | What matters is when will Spamowitz - the 'advocate of fair competition' - call for LInux to begin competing fairly? | Apr 18 19:12 |
MinceR | Guest36863: does a windows advocate have a windows job? | Apr 18 19:12 |
Guest36863 | So? | Apr 18 19:12 |
MinceR | yeah, so? | Apr 18 19:13 |
cubezzz | windows user, what a surprise | Apr 18 19:13 |
Guest36863 | When will it happen that the 'advocate of fair competition' actually advocates fair competition? | Apr 18 19:13 |
Guest36863 | Never, that's for sure. | Apr 18 19:13 |
MinceR | it happens all the time | Apr 18 19:13 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, tell Spamowitz I dropped by and called out his lies and idiocy. | Apr 18 19:14 |
MinceR | then again, i wouldn't expect a m$ munchkin to have any idea of what "fair competition" is | Apr 18 19:14 |
msb | Obviously MS is worried about the increasing adoption of GNU/Linux, even though the price of most computers that people buy already includes a payment to MS for Windows, even if the purchaser never uses Windows. | Apr 18 19:14 |
MinceR | it being anathema to m$, apparently | Apr 18 19:14 |
cubezzz | sure, whatever mr anonymous 3848592 | Apr 18 19:15 |
msb | DFS and about ten other MS spammers have totally trashed COLA for years, and made it useless as a Linux forum. | Apr 18 19:15 |
*Guest36863 has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) | Apr 18 19:18 | |
MinceR | strange, he gave up | Apr 18 19:18 |
MinceR | didn't get enough gratis licences for m$ crap this month? | Apr 18 19:18 |
cubezzz | ok, I was going to kick him but I can't remember how to get ops | Apr 18 19:18 |
msb | I have never used MS-Windows. Around 1984 I made a terminal emulator in BASIC that I ran under PC-DOS on my 8088 IBM-PC and used it to communicate with a BSD Unix system at a local university. Around 2000 I switched to Linux.. | Apr 18 19:19 |
MinceR | cubezzz: /cs op #techrights | Apr 18 19:19 |
MinceR | or /chanserv op #techrights | Apr 18 19:19 |
MinceR | or /quote chanserv op #techrights | Apr 18 19:19 |
*ChanServ gives channel operator status to cubezzz | Apr 18 19:19 | |
MinceR | or /raw chanserv op #techrights | Apr 18 19:19 |
cubezzz | yay | Apr 18 19:19 |
MinceR | msg works too, but is less secure :) | Apr 18 19:19 |
cubezzz | I can't believe I didn't write that down | Apr 18 19:19 |
MinceR | (some scripts seem to use msg with a full nick!user@host spec, that's probably more secure than plain msg) | Apr 18 19:20 |
cubezzz | you're more patient that me MinceR | Apr 18 19:20 |
cubezzz | I think I would have kicked him out sooner | Apr 18 19:20 |
msb | MinceR: Your little person-picture in the Konversation nick list is bold, so I think that means you are already an op. | Apr 18 19:20 |
MinceR | not really, i've asked Roy if i should remove him :> | Apr 18 19:21 |
MinceR | msb: i am but cubezzz wanted to know how to get op | Apr 18 19:21 |
msb | Right. | Apr 18 19:21 |
cubezzz | oh well, so much for today's excitement | Apr 18 19:22 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 18 19:22 |
cubezzz | I didn't really understand his arguments | Apr 18 19:22 |
msb | Debating a shit-hole like that does clarify one's own thoughts on the subject. | Apr 18 19:22 |
cubezzz | I knew he'd be a windows person :) | Apr 18 19:23 |
msb | Nobody could understand his arguments, because they were totally bogus. | Apr 18 19:23 |
cubezzz | duh, I only know how to use one operating system | Apr 18 19:23 |
cubezzz | I didn't get the chance to ask him if he compiles his kernel | Apr 18 19:23 |
msb | His arguments were predicated on lies. | Apr 18 19:24 |
cubezzz | that's my favourite anti-troll comment | Apr 18 19:24 |
MinceR | lol | Apr 18 19:24 |
MinceR | are you sure he knows what a "kernel" is? :> | Apr 18 19:24 |
cubezzz | am I sure? no | Apr 18 19:25 |
msb | Not only doesn't he compile his own kernel (which I don't either, but I could), but he doesn't examine his own mind. So he has no free will. He's not really conscious. | Apr 18 19:26 |
cubezzz | it's like not knowing how to cook | Apr 18 19:27 |
*MinceR doesn't know how to cook | Apr 18 19:27 | |
cubezzz | so you eat fast food all the time... it's not healthy | Apr 18 19:27 |
MinceR | not all the time | Apr 18 19:28 |
msb | Psychopaths can't reconcile their thoughts and behavior with what they know is necessary for human survival and success. So they can't examine their ideas and motives. It would create too much cognitive dissonance. | Apr 18 19:28 |
MinceR | not even most of the time | Apr 18 19:28 |
cubezzz | just make mrproper, make menuconfig and pick what you want | Apr 18 19:29 |
MinceR | cooking doesn't work that way :> | Apr 18 19:29 |
cubezzz | cooking is like programming... | Apr 18 19:29 |
msb | Asian fast food can be excellent. | Apr 18 19:29 |
MinceR | yeah, i had chinese once this week | Apr 18 19:30 |
cubezzz | no one goes around saying "you can't use that recipe for apple pie" | Apr 18 19:30 |
cubezzz | it's just stupid | Apr 18 19:30 |
msb | There's a great Chinese place near me, and they deliver! | Apr 18 19:30 |
MinceR | well, if m$ got into the food business, they would | Apr 18 19:30 |
cubezzz | but for some reason, people put up with closed source | Apr 18 19:30 |
msb | A. Most people don't know much about computing. B. Microsoft spends huge amount of money on lying adverts to deceive people. | Apr 18 19:31 |
cubezzz | msb, you're old enough to know about the pre-windows and pre-microsoft era | Apr 18 19:32 |
cubezzz | there was sharing of code... | Apr 18 19:32 |
msb | Teriyaki, that was it! There was a wonderful Japanese teryaki fast-food place in San Francisco I used to go to all the time. | Apr 18 19:32 |
cubezzz | on BBSes and even usenet | Apr 18 19:33 |
msb | cubezzz: yes. I used to see lots of sharing of Unix code on Usenet through my Unix account. | Apr 18 19:33 |
msb | A lot of it was archived on Simtel20 at White Sands AFB (or whatever it was). | Apr 18 19:34 |

cubezzz | Dr Dobb's published the source for Tiny BASIC in 1975 | Apr 18 19:36 |
cubezzz | msb, uucp? | Apr 18 19:36 |
msb | There was a format for publishing source code in Usenet articles. It wasn't compressed, but had some extra characters for getting whitespace right. | Apr 18 19:37 |
MinceR | uuencode? | Apr 18 19:37 |
msb | cubezzz: I remember uucp, but that was a lower-level protocol. | Apr 18 19:37 |
cubezzz | and the DECUS tapes, I've tapped into that | Apr 18 19:38 |
cubezzz | some good stuff in there | Apr 18 19:38 |
msb | MinceR: yes, I think my terminal would do uuencode and uudecode, but this was something else. I thing wget may still do it. | Apr 18 19:38 |
MinceR | ic | Apr 18 19:39 |
cubezzz | I think ftp predates even tcp/ip | Apr 18 19:40 |
cubezzz | it used NCP, which was the precursor of tcp/ip | Apr 18 19:40 |
msb | This was another protocol for wandering around in a directory structure and downloading what you wanted. But I can't remember the name! | Apr 18 19:41 |
cubezzz | not gopher? | Apr 18 19:41 |
cubezzz | WAIS? | Apr 18 19:42 |
msb | Maybe it was gopher. That feels kind of close to it. | Apr 18 19:42 |
msb | So long ago... | Apr 18 19:43 |
MinceR | "When Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy learned of BBN's accomplishment in signing this million-dollar agreement, he sent a telegram congratulating the company for being contracted to build the "Interfaith Message Processor"." | Apr 18 19:45 |

MinceR | another funny tidbit | Apr 18 19:50 |
MinceR | also, there was a "The" at the beginning that i've managed to not select. | Apr 18 19:50 |
cubezzz | that Archie guy never ages | Apr 18 19:51 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 18 19:51 |
cubezzz | he's been in high school for over 70 years | Apr 18 19:51 |
msb | "The master Gopherspace search engine" -- gives the impression of an enormous gopher who knows everything in the worldwide system of gopher tunnels. | Apr 18 19:53 |
MinceR | but can't fit in them, as it's enormous :> | Apr 18 19:54 |
msb | Gophers played an important part in the very funny movie Caddyshack (1980) with Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, and Rodney Dangerfield. Definitely worth watching. | Apr 18 19:55 |
msb | It can be found in that most naughty of naughty places, YIFY. | Apr 18 19:56 |

msb | Yes, it is full of extreme naughtiness, high-res x264 encoded in very small file size. | Apr 18 20:00 |

cubezzz | ok msb_ you might find this interesting | Apr 19 01:10 |
cubezzz | the video card glitch happened, so I tried the idea of using /sbin/modprobe vga16fb to see if I could make the text console visible | Apr 19 01:13 |
cubezzz | it worked but it needed two steps | Apr 19 01:13 |
cubezzz | first change from radeon to vesa driver in xorg.conf | Apr 19 01:13 |
cubezzz | then /sbin/modprobe vga16fb | Apr 19 01:13 |
cubezzz | then change from vesa back to radeon | Apr 19 01:13 |
cubezzz | poof.... text console works :) | Apr 19 01:14 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.activistpost.com | Activist Post: ‘Kill Switch’ Included on All Cell Phones Made in U.S. by 2015 [ http://ur1.ca/h49ne ] | Apr 19 13:38 | |
MinceR | what's even sadder, it will probably appear in cell phones made elsewhere, too | Apr 19 13:39 |
msb | All those little black objects that people were holding up at the Bundy Ranch encounter with federal troops were cell phones, recording the troops' actions. | Apr 19 13:40 |
msb | Now cops and feds and any govt will be able to wipe those pix and videos instantly so they can't be used as evidence. | Apr 19 13:40 |
MinceR | i don't quite understand how "required" and "voluntary" go together in this case, though | Apr 19 13:41 |
msb | I don't know, but all the phone mfrs are apparently in on it. Now you'd think they'd be against that "anti-theft" measure, because if someone's phone is stolen, they're just gonna buy another one. Ka-ching! | Apr 19 13:42 |
msb | Let's hope someone makes an open-source phone, or one that can be rooted, and this can be fixed by users. | Apr 19 13:44 |
msb | As it is now, cops have to be very careful. The *only* times they get convicted is when someone records their beating/shooting on a cell-phone. | Apr 19 13:46 |
msb | And more and more people have them. | Apr 19 13:46 |
msb | Damn! Yahoo cut off all my list mail ten days ago because some mail bounced at some time, and hasn't sent me anything. For all I know, the Earth could have ascended into the Fifth Dimension. | Apr 19 14:21 |
msb | It's fascism all over again, I tell ya! | Apr 19 14:22 |
MinceR | it's bad idea to rely on yahoo anyway | Apr 19 14:23 |
msb | Well, I was still getting stuff from a few non-yahoo lists. | Apr 19 14:24 |
msb | But most lists moved to yahoo years ago. It's the only way to access them. | Apr 19 14:24 |
MinceR | anyone could run their own lists on their own server(s) via mailman, for example | Apr 19 14:25 |
MinceR | there's no need to give the opportunity to cut anyone off to a microsoft shell company. | Apr 19 14:25 |
msb | Aggh! Yahoo is owned by MS?? | Apr 19 14:26 |
MinceR | not sure if they're owned by m$, but they serve m$ | Apr 19 14:26 |
msb | How? | Apr 19 14:27 |
MinceR | their "search engine" is nothing but a front end to bìng, for example | Apr 19 14:27 |
msb | I just use google, a front end to the CIA. | Apr 19 14:27 |
MinceR | not to the nsa? | Apr 19 14:28 |
MinceR | also, you can achieve further isolation from google via startpage and/or tor | Apr 19 14:28 |
msb | You're right, sorry. Got my TLAs confused. | Apr 19 14:28 |
msb | With my website, trying to hide is useless. | Apr 19 14:28 |

cubezzz | schestowitz, it's very interesting, a microsoft guy was criticizing microsoft | Apr 19 23:33 |
cubezzz | I worked at Microsoft at a time when the company had pretty much taken the market share away from Lotus 1-2-3, Word Perfect, and dBase. By the mid-1990's, Microsoft all but owned the word processing and spreadsheet spaces. And with that control it regularly modified the file formats for applications such as Word and Excel, and even Outlook and PowerPoint. The Office file formats change just about every 2 or 3 years and I have lost track of how many uniq | Apr 19 23:33 |
cubezzz | ue Office file formats there have been. | Apr 19 23:33 |
cubezzz | After owning over 90% of the word processor and spreadsheet market they apparently started to assume that all their customers would just blindly upgrade Microsoft Office every year | Apr 19 23:34 |
cubezzz | this from a former Microsoft guy | Apr 19 23:35 |
cubezzz | he even uses the same terminology I used... | Apr 19 23:37 |
cubezzz | the "Dark Ages" of personal computing | Apr 19 23:37 |
cubezzz | although I disagree when the Dark Ages happened | Apr 19 23:37 |
cubezzz | he says 2000 to 2005 | Apr 19 23:37 |
cubezzz | I'd say it's more like 1995 to 2003 | Apr 19 23:38 |

msb_ | "Even if we are to believe the NSA, and I'm reluctant given its shaky track record, the damage has been done to the tech community." | Apr 13 08:02 |
msb_ | Perhaps all the revelations of NSA spying have benefitted the tech community. | Apr 13 08:03 |
msb_ | Many techies tend to be apolitical, perhaps because technology provides such an enjoyable area of interest, while politics are unpleasant. | Apr 13 08:04 |
msb_ | But now, a whole new array of people have been forced to realize how evil -- untrustworthy and harmful -- the U.S. government actually is. | Apr 13 08:05 |
msb_ | It has hit them where they live. | Apr 13 08:05 |
msb_ | Awareness of the evil is the most important factor in ridding the world of it. | Apr 13 08:06 |
cubezzz | well that was interesting | Apr 13 08:06 |
cubezzz | I actually managed to change the text console | Apr 13 08:06 |
msb_ | More and more people are questioning the 9/11 attacks, which were the pretext for the US/Israeli War of Terror. | Apr 13 08:07 |
msb_ | Every increase in people's awareness of the dominator psychopaths is a step forward. | Apr 13 08:08 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I mangaged to switch from bog standard 80x25 text to vga16fb | Apr 13 08:09 |
cubezzz | anyways, it's in the log if you ever come across it | Apr 13 08:09 |
msb_ | Congrats cubezzz. Yes, IIRC, you can do that with kernel options at startup. | Apr 13 08:10 |
cubezzz | msb_, this is dynamic | Apr 13 08:10 |
msb_ | Oho! | Apr 13 08:10 |
msb_ | So it's a loadable kernel module? | Apr 13 08:11 |
cubezzz | yes | Apr 13 08:11 |
cubezzz | works in 2.4 and 2.6 kernels, although those are the only 2 I've tried so far | Apr 13 08:13 |
cubezzz | now the interesting part is... will this fix a messed up text console | Apr 13 08:13 |
msb_ | Exactly what I was going to ask. | Apr 13 08:14 |
cubezzz | well I have to get it to mess up first to test that | Apr 13 08:14 |
msb_ | How often has it been happening? | Apr 13 08:14 |
cubezzz | ha | Apr 13 08:14 |
cubezzz | it happens about once or twice a month | Apr 13 08:15 |
msb_ | Do you monitor your cpu and mobo temperature sensors? | Apr 13 08:15 |
msb_ | KDE4 system monitor can do that. | Apr 13 08:16 |
cubezzz | you can monitor my sensors :) | Apr 13 08:16 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/cgi-bin/sensors.cgi | Apr 13 08:16 |
cubezzz | I don't think I'm using -12V or -5V | Apr 13 08:18 |
cubezzz | I think -12V was actually dropped from ATX a while back | Apr 13 08:18 |
msb_ | Isn't science wonderful! | Apr 13 08:21 |
msb_ | What program gives you that listing? | Apr 13 08:21 |
cubezzz | it's part of lm_sensors | Apr 13 08:26 |
cubezzz | yeah KDE 3.X probably has something | Apr 13 08:28 |
cubezzz | but it's nice to be able to use it in text mode | Apr 13 08:28 |
msb_ | I just loaded an rpm that supposedly has it, but it's not showing up yet. Have to look in half an hour when this anime' I'm watching is over. | Apr 13 08:33 |
msb_ | There's so much I don't know. I feel like I'm Dilbert going up against Techno-Bill! | Apr 13 08:34 |
cubezzz | well I was in the video game industry for quite a while | Apr 13 08:36 |
cubezzz | so I picked up a bit about low-level stuff | Apr 13 08:37 |
msb_ | At least I was an expert on the IBM-PC. Used to write wedges that went into the BIOS interrupt chains. | Apr 13 08:37 |
cubezzz | probably the coreboot guys know the most | Apr 13 08:37 |

msb_ | MinceR: OK, first some (alternative) sociology. There are two types of society -- Partnership and Dominator. In partnership societies everyone has fairly equivalent social standing, and they treat each other as they themselves would want to be treated. In dominator societies, there is substantial stratification in wealth and power, with those at the top exploiting those below. | Apr 14 05:14 |
<--siel has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) | Apr 14 05:14 | |
msb_ | MinceR: These terms are used in the seminal book _The Chalice and the Blade_, by Riane Eisler. Essential reading! | Apr 14 05:15 |
msb_ | MinceR: Dominator systems are run by psychopaths. | Apr 14 05:16 |
msb_ | MinceR: Now to economics. Capitalism and Socialism each have Partnership and Dominator versions. | Apr 14 05:17 |
msb_ | MinceR: For capitalism, and example of a partnership system would be a wonderful market I shop at. Every morning their trucks go to farms and farmers' markets and buy vegetables, bring them back to the urban market, and sell them cheaper than supermarkets -- often half the price. | Apr 14 05:19 |
msb_ | MinceR: For dominator capitalism, an example is the US corporate/government system, which utilizes mass murder (millions of victims) for profit. 9/11, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, ... | Apr 14 05:21 |
msb_ | MinceR: For partnership socialism, there's Nicaragua, which has a democratically elected socialist government, and sharing of resources such as agricultural equipment. For dominator socialism, there was Stalinist USSR. | Apr 14 05:23 |

msb_ | Can you watch it at home? | Apr 14 06:04 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 14 06:04 |
msb_ | Great. | Apr 14 06:04 |
msb_ | MinceR: Beyond the two problems of capitalism that you mentioned, another occurs when technology advances to the point where only a small fraction of the population has to work at 40hr/week jobs to produce enough goods and services for everyone. We reached that point some time ago, and have filled in with make-work jobs like advertising, drug enforcement, victimless crime enforcement and large prison populations, real estate and stock speculation, etc. | Apr 14 06:08 |
msb_ | MinceR: But actual unemployment in the US is at about 25% and rising. Unless we adopt partnership principles of sharing and equality, we're going to have a lot of homeless starving people. | Apr 14 06:10 |
MinceR | i'm not worried about that | Apr 14 06:10 |
MinceR | if we can do menial work with machines, we can get more rest | Apr 14 06:10 |
MinceR | as long as the same (or greater) value is produced, why worry about wasting less time with work? | Apr 14 06:11 |
msb_ | Yes, but how do people get money if there are not jobs for them? | Apr 14 06:11 |
MinceR | i don't know | Apr 14 06:11 |
MinceR | what i do know is that once we manage to eliminate scarcity, it won't matter | Apr 14 06:11 |
MinceR | and technology will be instrumental in that | Apr 14 06:12 |
msb_ | We can already eliminate scarcity. | Apr 14 06:12 |
MinceR | hopefully people can gradually transition to more mental jobs in the meantime | Apr 14 06:12 |
msb_ | 99% of the wealth is in the hands of 1% of the population. | Apr 14 06:12 |
msb_ | If it were spread around better, there'd be no scarcity. | Apr 14 06:12 |
msb_ | There aren't enough mental jobs to soak up the unemployed. | Apr 14 06:13 |
msb_ | Not nearly enough. | Apr 14 06:13 |
MinceR | competition is pretty lacking in several markets, more jobs could be created there | Apr 14 06:14 |
msb_ | In the limiting case, machines will provide all goods and services. But no one will have a job or money, so they won't be able to buy any. | Apr 14 06:14 |
msb_ | Competition is just another kind of make-work. | Apr 14 06:14 |
MinceR | except it's useful | Apr 14 06:15 |
msb_ | Lots of different car companies doing the same R&D. It's a waste of effort. | Apr 14 06:15 |
MinceR | without scarcity, nobody will need to buy anything | Apr 14 06:15 |
MinceR | not necessarily the same R&D | Apr 14 06:15 |
MinceR | there are plenty of different paths | Apr 14 06:15 |
msb_ | But in capitalism, someone always owns the machines, and will require payment for their products. | Apr 14 06:16 |
msb_ | Ownership of the producing machines in common, and free access to their products is ...Socialism! | Apr 14 06:16 |
MinceR | i'm not sure if those concepts have meaning when there's no scarcity | Apr 14 06:17 |
msb_ | But what does "no scarcity" mean? Who owns the machines that creates the goods and services? | Apr 14 06:19 |
msb_ | creates--> create | Apr 14 06:19 |
MinceR | everyone could own a swarm of nanobots that could be used to build the tools that are needed | Apr 14 06:21 |
MinceR | for example | Apr 14 06:21 |
msb_ | If the richest 1% didn't suck up 99% of the wealth now, we could all work 16hrs/week and have plenty. | Apr 14 06:21 |
MinceR | it could even be part of their body | Apr 14 06:21 |
msb_ | Nanobots are in the far future. What we have now is computer-controlled robotic machines. They can produce almost everything we need, but if they are owned by capitalists, no one will have a job to get money to buy the machines' products. | Apr 14 06:23 |
msb_ | Nanobots are also very dangerous -- the "gray goo" problem. | Apr 14 06:24 |
msb_ | A little programming error, and the whole planet is consumed. | Apr 14 06:24 |
MinceR | don't let microsoft and apple program them, then | Apr 14 06:25 |
msb_ | Anyone will be able to program them, and some will make mistakes. | Apr 14 06:25 |
MinceR | then we will have countermeasures | Apr 14 06:26 |
cubezzz | someone has to fix the robots, unless you develop robots that can fix other robots | Apr 14 06:26 |
cubezzz | Mincer :) | Apr 14 06:26 |
msb_ | IIRC, Drexler said that everything on Earth will have to have a coating of defensive nanomachines to protect it. Every blade of grass! | Apr 14 06:27 |
cubezzz | all those pie in the sky predictions never come true though | Apr 14 06:27 |
msb_ | Let's hope not! | Apr 14 06:27 |
cubezzz | no HAL 9000, no true AI | Apr 14 06:27 |
cubezzz | a self-programming computer, laughable | Apr 14 06:28 |
MinceR | what's laughable about that? | Apr 14 06:28 |
msb_ | But even a stupid AI, if programmed to protect itself and connected to military resources, could take over. | Apr 14 06:28 |
cubezzz | we got windows instead | Apr 14 06:28 |
MinceR | windows is dying | Apr 14 06:28 |
cubezzz | no computer can do what a human baby does | Apr 14 06:29 |
msb_ | Asimov wrote various stories about robes that figured out how to circumvent the Three Laws! | Apr 14 06:29 |
MinceR | a human baby might be a computer | Apr 14 06:29 |
MinceR | and a future human baby might contain computers :> | Apr 14 06:30 |
cubezzz | augmentation, yes | Apr 14 06:31 |
cubezzz | that's possible | Apr 14 06:31 |
msb_ | A clever but immoral lawyerbot could trash the Three Laws in microseconds! | Apr 14 06:31 |
MinceR | and human babies can exist in a universe simulated by a computer | Apr 14 06:31 |
cubezzz | progress is happening, it's just slower than Sci-Fi predicted, much much slower | Apr 14 06:32 |
MinceR | also, every blade of grass is already constantly fighting with pathogens on the cellular scale :> | Apr 14 06:33 |
cubezzz | my desktop hasn't really changed much in the last 10 years | Apr 14 06:47 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/old-desktop-2005.png | Apr 14 06:47 |
msb_ | MinceR: But those pathogens had to *evolve* their methods of attack -- very slow. Nanomachines, with nanocomputers, could simulate and evaluate attacks zillions of times faster. The poor blade of grass wouldn't have a chance without a layer of protective nanomachnes. | Apr 14 06:48 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/desktop-2014.png | Apr 14 06:49 |
MinceR | msb_: not necessarily a layer -- the nanomachines could also be inside the blade of grass | Apr 14 06:50 |
msb_ | And inside every food crop. Those diamond-based machines would make 'em really crunchy! | Apr 14 06:51 |
MinceR | they could be ordered to come out | Apr 14 06:51 |
msb_ | "Sorry, we like it here." | Apr 14 06:52 |
MinceR | then send in the killer nanomachines | Apr 14 06:52 |
MinceR | also, i'm not sure how much we'd need food crops once we're infused with nanomachines and quite possibly not human anymore :> | Apr 14 06:52 |
msb_ | I believe STTOS dealt with that situation: "EXISTENCE!... SURVIVAL... must cancel out... programming! " | Apr 14 06:54 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 14 06:54 |
msb_ | If only Ruk had squeezed Kirk a little harder... | Apr 14 06:54 |
cubezzz | mind transfer | Apr 14 06:56 |
cubezzz | some philosophical implications there | Apr 14 06:57 |
msb_ | STTOS and Kirk trashed every single instance of advanced technology they could find, including immortality. | Apr 14 06:57 |
cubezzz | ok, now we will upload your mind into windows 35 | Apr 14 06:57 |
cubezzz | uhhh, no thanks :) | Apr 14 06:57 |
cubezzz | he didn't trash Trelane's parents | Apr 14 06:58 |
cubezzz | not sure if that counts as tech though | Apr 14 06:58 |
msb_ | Anyhow What Are Little Girls Made Of? was self-contradictory. Kirk's justification for destroying the bot-creation machinery was that the resulting ghost-in-the-shell had no emotions. But the "native" bots did. It could have been fixed. But no immortality for us! | Apr 14 07:01 |
cubezzz | the Thasians were also quite advanced | Apr 14 07:01 |
cubezzz | lots of uber-aliens in TOS | Apr 14 07:02 |
msb_ | When Spock got happy in another ep, Kirk made some sound generator that ruined it. What a schmuck! | Apr 14 07:02 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 14 07:02 |
cubezzz | another thing we don't really have that TOS did: computers you can talk to | Apr 14 07:03 |
msb_ | *Working* | Apr 14 07:03 |
MinceR | we can talk to any computer | Apr 14 07:07 |
MinceR | not many of them listen, though :> | Apr 14 07:07 |
cubezzz | the last big step forward was www | Apr 14 07:08 |
msb_ | WWW/Linux/FOSS is the nervous system of the evolving World Community | Apr 14 07:19 |
MinceR | what about IRC? :> | Apr 14 07:19 |
msb_ | Dat's good too! | Apr 14 07:19 |
cubezzz | IRC predates WWW :) | Apr 14 07:20 |
cubezzz | of course Microsoft had to try and muck things up with MSNP | Apr 14 07:21 |
MinceR | and IRCX | Apr 14 07:22 |
msb_ | With WWW/Linux/FOSS, Cannabis, and Partnership/Eisler/Korten sociology, we can have a "soft landing" from the current fascist control system. Everybody just relax, give the fascist rulers tens of millions of dollars each if they promise not to make any more trouble.. | Apr 14 07:23 |
cubezzz | I've found there | Apr 14 07:25 |
cubezzz | 's another force in software beyond Embrace, Extend, Entinguish | Apr 14 07:25 |
msb_ | Psychopaths can only survive inside a cloud of lying propaganda that hides them. But with the Web, they are entirely exposed. | Apr 14 07:25 |
msb_ | Evolve! | Apr 14 07:26 |
cubezzz | there's also abandonment and resurrection | Apr 14 07:26 |
msb_ | Resurrection (1980) with Ellen Burstyn is a great movie! *Not* xtian propaganda. | Apr 14 07:27 |

msb_ | MinceR: Hi! Did you watch that video of David Korten? | Apr 15 07:34 |
MinceR | not yet | Apr 15 07:34 |
msb_ | It's all about changing the story, the context, in your mind through which you see things. | Apr 15 07:36 |
msb_ | MinceR: He's not saying people should give up their private propitty. But we should have sharing and empathy as primary values shaping our economic system so that everyone can thrive, not just those at the top and the (ever-shrinking now) middle. | Apr 15 07:39 |
msb_ | MinceR: There's a deep, fundamental difference between families having their own home, cars, etc., and Monsanto and Microsoft having so much money that they can hurt people and buy the government, and no one can stop them. | Apr 15 07:41 |
MinceR | i think the main problem there is that m$ is incentivized to do harm | Apr 15 07:42 |
MinceR | and not punished | Apr 15 07:42 |
msb_ | MinceR: Conservatives and Libertarians always point us toward families, so we conclude that, of course they should have their private property. But they point us away from the ultra-wealthy and corporations that harm people for profit with their private property. | Apr 15 07:43 |
MinceR | what has liberalism have to do with families? | Apr 15 07:44 |
msb_ | Psychopaths can always find ways to make a profit by harming people. Reality incentivizes them. | Apr 15 07:44 |
msb_ | Liberalism says (or at least should say) that the economic system should help families to thrive, instead of taking 99% of the wealth and giving it to the 1% richest people, which is what we have now. | Apr 15 07:46 |
msb_ | MinceR: If rich people were satisfied when they had enough wealth to live, or even 10 or 100 times the amount they need to live, everything would be fine, because they'd leave the rest for the non-rich. | Apr 15 07:50 |
msb_ | MinceR: But they're never satisfied. A pigeon in a Skinner-box keeps pecking the switch until the cage fills up with food and it suffocates. But the wealthy under capitalism keep grabbing more and more until the non-wealthy 99% starve and lose their homes. | Apr 15 07:52 |
MinceR | punishment and incapacitation disincentivizes psychopaths. | Apr 15 07:53 |
msb_ | So how would you punish and incapacitate corporate owners who keep most of the profits for themselves instead of paying most of it to their workers as wages? | Apr 15 07:54 |
msb_ | MinceR: Even though the corporate owners say that the profits belong to them as "private property" because they own the corporations. | Apr 15 07:56 |
msb_ | MinceR: That's how the "private propery" concept causes harm when it's extended to the realm of great wealth. | Apr 15 07:57 |
MinceR | that's when the corporate veil needs to be pierced. | Apr 15 08:01 |

msb_ | MinceR: But once the corporate veil is pierced, what's the next step? If the main crime being committed by corporate owners is paying the workers too little and keeping too much for themselves, how do you fix that within the current rules/framework of capitalism? | Apr 15 08:32 |
MinceR | that doesn't seem to be the main crime in the case you quoted | Apr 15 08:32 |
MinceR | also, i see no reason why workers should be stuck with microsoft, other than microsoft making it difficult or impossible for competitors to exist and operate | Apr 15 08:33 |
msb_ | That's the main crime in general! | Apr 15 08:33 |
msb_ | That's why 1% of the population has 99% of the wealth, and the other 99% of the people have to make do on a total of 1%. | Apr 15 08:34 |

cubezzz | haha | Apr 15 09:54 |
cubezzz | that was Arous, not Aros :) | Apr 15 09:55 |
cubezzz | AROS is an open source version of AmigaDos 3.1 | Apr 15 09:55 |
msb_ | MinceR: Wow, that is one seriously weird gif file! | Apr 15 10:06 |
msb_ | I wanted to single-step it. mplayer wouldn't play it (no surprise). I fed it to xv, which gave about 400 error messages and wouldn't quit! When I deleted each one it put up another, and when I switched to another desktop it came back and put the error message under the mouse pointer. I wanted to type killall xv but I couldn't. Eventually it ran down and quit. Gwenview (and firefox) display it, but I don't know how to make either one pause. | Apr 15 10:09 |
msb_ | On another topic, I hope everyone has seen the movie Antitrust (2001). If not, there's a good copy of it in that naughty place right now. | Apr 15 10:12 |
cubezzz | the gimp might be able to single step an animated gif | Apr 15 10:12 |
MinceR | i just watched it in firefox :> | Apr 15 10:15 |
msb_ | Sure, it plays fine in firefox. A great work of art! but it goes by too fast to see some of the details. | Apr 15 10:16 |
msb_ | MinceR: Or do you mean Antitrust? | Apr 15 10:16 |
MinceR | the gif | Apr 15 10:17 |
MinceR | i did have to go through a few cycles to see some of the details, though | Apr 15 10:17 |

DaemonFC | Someone told me something that I found to be disturbing a couple of days ago. | Apr 15 10:31 |
DaemonFC | The school systems in Indiana are not just wasting taxpayer dollars on Crapple iBads anymore. They're forcing parents, even poor ones, to pay full price for these malicious, proprietary, user-subjugating devices. | Apr 15 10:31 |
DaemonFC | To add insult to injury, the schools *could* buy Chromebooks for $150 each that do everything the iBad can and more, which shows how wasteful their buying practices are. | Apr 15 10:31 |
DaemonFC | Crapple takes the money from the government contracts, and uses some of it to turn around and buy our elections, making sure that politicians force parents and taxpayers to buy more Crapple iCrap later on. | Apr 15 10:31 |
DaemonFC | 2 secs · | Apr 15 10:33 |
DaemonFC | Then, while all this expensive Crapple iCrap is being "procured", I got a letter in the mail the other day from Dan Leonard, telling us how frugal the Indiana Politburo Republicans are being with our money. | Apr 15 10:33 |
DaemonFC | There's nothing like fascism that comes back and pisses on you while it's telling you that it's raining. | Apr 15 10:33 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 15 10:34 |
msb_ | The IPud doesn't have a real keyboard, so it's pretty tedious to *originate* content. Tablets are designed for consumption of content, and users should keep their mouths shut. | Apr 15 10:42 |
msb_ | When tablets become fully voice-operated, users will be called Eloi. | Apr 15 10:46 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 15 10:47 |
MinceR | there's some convergence between tablet computers and laptops | Apr 15 10:47 |
msb_ | And you know what that makes us... | Apr 15 10:47 |
msb_ | We don't *have* to eat them, though. Yuck. | Apr 15 10:47 |
cubezzz | anyone remember these: | Apr 15 10:49 |

msb_ | It needs a real keyboard, and a good-sized screen. If it has some extras from tablets too, that | Apr 15 10:49 |
msb_ | 's fine. | Apr 15 10:49 |
msb_ | I remember the Dick Tracy wrist radio from the funnies. | Apr 15 10:50 |
msb_ | cubezzz: what did those things actually do? | Apr 15 10:51 |
cubezzz | msb_, it can interface with serial devices | Apr 15 10:52 |
cubezzz | e.g. Commodore 64, Apple II, Tandy Color Computer, etc | Apr 15 10:53 |
msb_ | Did it have a DB-25 to nano-phone-plug adapter? | Apr 15 10:54 |
msb_ | Do you have one? | Apr 15 10:55 |
cubezzz | alas, no | Apr 15 10:55 |
cubezzz | this will explain it a bit more: | Apr 15 10:55 |
msb_ | Darn, you could port Linux to it. | Apr 15 10:55 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/wrist-terminal-ad.jpg | Apr 15 10:55 |
cubezzz | pretty neat for 1984 | Apr 15 10:57 |

-->DaemonFC (~ryan@unaffiliated/daemonfc) has joined #techrights | Apr 16 06:04 | |
DaemonFC | I got my new cable modem/router. | Apr 16 07:34 |
DaemonFC | Much nicer than Comcast's. | Apr 16 07:34 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 16 07:37 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: It included a copy of the GNU General Public License. | Apr 16 07:59 |
MinceR | :) | Apr 16 07:59 |
DaemonFC | Under system requirements, it says "Linux" is a supported operating system. | Apr 16 07:59 |
DaemonFC | Well, now I can get rid of another one of life's little ripoffs. | Apr 16 08:00 |
DaemonFC | Modem rental fee. | Apr 16 08:00 |
cubezzz | I did that 10 years ago :) | Apr 16 08:00 |
DaemonFC | Yeah. I was waiting for a good deal on a combination unit that supported the latest standards. | Apr 16 08:01 |
cubezzz | how much was the rental fee? | Apr 16 08:02 |
DaemonFC | I didn't feel like getting stuck on something that didn't support ipv6 or DOCSIS 3. | Apr 16 08:02 |
DaemonFC | $8 a month | Apr 16 08:02 |
cubezzz | 8 * 12 * 10 = $960 | Apr 16 08:02 |
DaemonFC | The price for the Netgear N450 cable modem/router on Amazon fell to $99.99. | Apr 16 08:02 |
DaemonFC | And I got 3% off for using my Amazon Visa. | Apr 16 08:03 |
DaemonFC | yeah, but up until 2012, it was only $3 a month. | Apr 16 08:03 |
DaemonFC | Then in 2013, it was $5, and then in 2014, it is now $8. | Apr 16 08:03 |
DaemonFC | So, basically, the rental fee is killing you now, compared to owning. | Apr 16 08:03 |
DaemonFC | It pays for itself in 12 months, and then starts saving you money. | Apr 16 08:03 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: Yeah. Over 10 years, you can rent a modem and pay for it 10 times over, or you can own it and spend the remaining $900 any way you choose. :) | Apr 16 08:06 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: You forgot tax, which in Indiana, is 7%. | Apr 16 08:07 |
DaemonFC | So 56 cents a month in tax makes the real rental cost $8.56 a month. | Apr 16 08:07 |
DaemonFC | $1,027.20 over 10 years, *if* they don't raise it again. | Apr 16 08:08 |
cubezzz | $8 is a rip-off | Apr 16 08:08 |
cubezzz | In Canada they don't even sell DSL modems in stores | Apr 16 08:10 |
cubezzz | so I bought mind directly from Ovislink Canada | Apr 16 08:11 |
cubezzz | s/mind/mine/ | Apr 16 08:11 |
cubezzz | just like they don't sell DVR's that record antenna broadcasts | Apr 16 08:12 |
cubezzz | they are all tied to Rogers and Bell | Apr 16 08:12 |
cubezzz | I remember I called one store and they said "No one provides DSL modems except the ISP" | Apr 16 08:13 |
cubezzz | totally false | Apr 16 08:13 |
cubezzz | but I deal directly with a freenet so no problem there | Apr 16 08:14 |
cubezzz | so yeah, a lot of people are getting squeezed by content providers | Apr 16 08:18 |
msb_ | Another point to note is that even though electronics gets cheaper to produce every year, the fee we're forced to pay to content (or Internet) providers for their *usage* of electronics for our needs keeps increasing. They just gouge us more and more every year because they *can*. There's nothing stopping them. | Apr 16 08:38 |
msb_ | That's another problem with Capitalism. The only force that pushes prices lower is competition. But in many areas there IS NO COMPETITION. In the San Francisco Bay Area, where I live, Comcast is the ONLY cable company -- mandated by law. The only competition is DSL, which is much lower speed. | Apr 16 08:42 |

Sosumi | reading "morals and dogma" atm | Apr 16 16:16 |
Sosumi | and I've found on passage in the book that says what I've been saying all along | Apr 16 16:16 |
Sosumi | about religion and cult being nothing more than an "ignorant" interpretation of the celestial plane | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | aka planets and orbits | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | We know, through a precise testimony in the ancient annals of Tsur, that the principal | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | festivity of Mal-karth, the incarnation of the Sun at the Winter Solstice, held at Tsur, was | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | called his rebirth or his awakening, and that it was celebrated by means of a pyre, on | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | which the god was supposed to regain, through the aid of fire, a new life. This festival | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | was celebrated in the month Peritius (Barith), the second day of which corresponded to | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | the 25th of December. KHUR-UM, King of Tyre, Movers says, first performed this | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | ceremony. These facts we learn from Josephus, Servius on the AEneid, and the | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | Dionysiacs of Nonnus; and through a coincidence that cannot be fortuitous, the same | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | day was at Rome the Dies Natalis Solis Invicti, the festal day of the invincible Sun. Under | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | this title, HERCULES, HAR-acles, was worshipped at Tsur. Thus, while the temple was | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | being erected, the death and resurrection of a Sun-God was annually represented at | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | Tsur, by Solomon's ally, at the winter solstice, by the pyre of MAL-KARIH, the Tsurian | Apr 16 16:17 |
Sosumi | Haracles. | Apr 16 16:17 |
cubezzz | can you explain chocolate easter bunnies? :) | Apr 16 16:18 |
Sosumi | well, it is a fertility cult in the honor of ishtar | Apr 16 16:19 |
Sosumi | in which everyone engaged in massive orgies | Apr 16 16:19 |
Sosumi | since bunnies reproduce fast | Apr 16 16:19 |
Sosumi | you get the chocolate bunny as memento from times long gone | Apr 16 16:19 |
cubezzz | ok, but some guy must have come up with the idea of making them chocolate | Apr 16 16:20 |

cubezzz | that's some bad luck there | Apr 16 16:23 |
Sosumi | I haven't any references in the book yet | Apr 16 16:33 |
Sosumi | to the name of Solomon | Apr 16 16:33 |
Sosumi | but I can say according to a theologian friend of mine | Apr 16 16:33 |
Sosumi | that it is just the name of the sun in three difference languages | Apr 16 16:34 |

Sosumi | no only the console is weaker but has no games | Apr 17 08:41 |

msb | Wiki says the PS4 runs a fork of FreeBSD, but I think that since BSD is not under GPL, the PS4 does not have to be programmable by the user and can be an "appliance" rather than a general purpose computer. Is this correct? | Apr 17 08:55 |
Sosumi | correct | Apr 17 08:56 |
msb | That sucks! | Apr 17 08:56 |
Sosumi | well ofc it does | Apr 17 08:56 |
Sosumi | just ask the game developers having to fork for a ps4 dev kit when they could instead just grab a ps4 off the shelf and start "deving" | Apr 17 08:57 |
msb | This is why the GPL is so important, so corporate pigs can't profit off the work of the free World Community without giving back to it. | Apr 17 08:57 |
msb | All praise to RMS! | Apr 17 08:57 |
Sosumi | the only way that'd change would be if suddenly M$ let ppl use the xbone as a general purpose computer | Apr 17 08:58 |
Sosumi | even if limited but as long as it could a regular desktop for home use | Apr 17 08:58 |
msb | I'd rather use a PS4 than anything from Microshit. | Apr 17 08:59 |
Sosumi | then sony would probably bring back the gnu/linux support | Apr 17 08:59 |
Sosumi | that they took away when they launched the ps3 slim | Apr 17 08:59 |
Sosumi | back in 2009 | Apr 17 08:59 |
msb | Yeah, that was a bummer. | Apr 17 08:59 |
Sosumi | well, you know that you still need m$ to develop for the ps3 | Apr 17 09:00 |
msb | You'd think they would sell more of them if people could use them freely. | Apr 17 09:00 |
Sosumi | I think it works through a visual studio plugin | Apr 17 09:00 |
msb | Feh. If it was open and the details were known, somebody would make a module for it for Eclipse. | Apr 17 09:02 |
msb | Last time I used an MS compiler (many years ago) you had to turn off all the optimizations or it would write severely erroneous code. | Apr 17 09:04 |

cubezzz | I think it's important to remember FOSS is more that just linux | Apr 17 09:23 |
cubezzz | technically if you have the source code, the compilers/assemblers, and a working computer you have software freedom | Apr 17 09:24 |

cubezzz | openbsd doesn't do that | Apr 17 13:09 |
cubezzz | they did do a pretty good job of reining in the bloat | Apr 17 13:09 |
cubezzz | but nothing compares to the efficency of Unix v7 on PDP | Apr 17 13:10 |
cubezzz | actually fc1 was kind of bloated too | Apr 17 13:15 |
cubezzz | and to be fair the dynamically linked stuff is smaller | Apr 17 13:17 |
cubezzz | it's just if there's stuff on another partition that gets borked you're /sbin stuff could be unuseable | Apr 17 13:18 |
cubezzz | really none of the modern linux's are truly lightweight | Apr 17 13:21 |
cubezzz | the only one I can think of is BL3, but it's very old | Apr 17 13:21 |
cubezzz | even tiny core recommends 128 megs of ram | Apr 17 13:21 |
cubezzz | folks, you deserve to see the leanest and meanest linux | Apr 17 13:42 |
cubezzz | remember, it runs Linux with X in 16 megs of ram | Apr 17 13:42 |

schestowitz__ | I agree with the cherrypicking attitude when building a stable system - but the cherries should be picked by the users, shouldn't they? Why limit the choice this way when the rest of the article praises the availability of choice on the GUI-toolkit side? | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | Wouldn't it be better to turn Fedora into Fedora Workstation (with more polish and optimised, presets) and make Fedora Workstation really workstation-ready? I mean, it's we developers who know what we need best - e.g. I mostly do Python and C++ library development and I need tools and environment which are radically different than, for example, those needed by a programmer who develops webapps. | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | I see no way for a pre-set desktop that would be good for both of us. But - I see a way for a desktop which comes bare-bones but offers advanced tools to install required programs, toolkits, GUI-environments etc. That makes a good job at helping the user manage itself and does not get in the way by saying *Hey, I'd like you do this MY WAY, otherwise it will be oh-so-hard". | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | Such system is truly workstation-ready in my opinion. Let us not forget that there is there is the work part in the workstation word. | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | And, last but - for me - not least, my usual rant about the focus on web applications. I have been, am and will be opposing the move to web-interface-only programs, and those who will not work without seamless access to net. | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | This point of view was shaped by my personal experiences, so take not that it is a biased opinion - I have always, and in fact I still do, had bad network access. If a program requires a constant access to the Network it's a no-go for me. | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | I praise git (and I really mean it!) for being local-goes-global and not the other way round. It's a real blessing and an engineering excellence that despite being a tool to work over the network it needs reliable net access only for some 15 minutes to actually push local changes and pull upstream. | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | And this is how people should be able to work - not worrying that they need something that is not immediately available on their local workstation. | Apr 17 14:02 |
schestowitz__ | Maybe I am wrong, I am definitely no authority, but I think that when the real work is done webapps should take the back sits and let real desktop programs take the first spot. I do not deny their usefulness - but I consider them more as interfaces to inspect the results of work (e.g. GitHub) or as a tools for discussion (e.g. Loomio). | Apr 17 14:02 |

sebsebseb | years ago I would have not had much else to think about really and so going there no problem | Apr 18 02:24 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: I was going to do a talk yesterday, but | Apr 18 02:24 |
sebsebseb | un well and had travel issues and what not as well, so nope, another time instead | Apr 18 02:24 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: no I don't really like Ubuntu that much either since 2009 | Apr 18 02:25 |
sebsebseb | ,but it's still one of the best chances at Desktop Linux going more main streame | Apr 18 02:26 |
Sosumi | oddly enough I always have to do in order to occupy myself | Apr 18 02:26 |
sebsebseb | to be honest I don't really care about that as much either these days really, but someone in my family is still running unsupported Windwos XP for now, which I am not happy about of course | Apr 18 02:26 |
sebsebseb | now I just need to test a ISO for what will become Mageia 4.1 | Apr 18 02:26 |
sebsebseb | which is meant to fix isolinux bugs, where there's issues on old hardware, and the computer won't boot up, from Live CD | Apr 18 02:26 |
sebsebseb | CD's | Apr 18 02:27 |
sebsebseb | and well hopefuly that will work and :) | Apr 18 02:27 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: you always have to what to occupy yourself? | Apr 18 02:27 |
Sosumi | gym, classes, studying, readying, projects | Apr 18 02:27 |
Sosumi | there's always stuff to do | Apr 18 02:27 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: not in my current life to be honest | Apr 18 02:28 |
sebsebseb | ,but here and there yes | Apr 18 02:28 |
sebsebseb | or there is stuff I could do, but don't just do. getting rid of more life junk, sorting out the driiving thorey, just two examples | Apr 18 02:29 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: to many old CD R's and what not here still | Apr 18 02:29 |
sebsebseb | to go through and get rid of most of them | Apr 18 02:29 |
Sosumi | I've already got rid of all my cds | Apr 18 02:30 |
sebsebseb | CD R's | Apr 18 02:30 |
sebsebseb | or in general | Apr 18 02:30 |

Sosumi | ho, I just my music from the piratebay | Apr 18 02:31 |
Sosumi | *get | Apr 18 02:31 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: that's blocked in this country | Apr 18 02:31 |
sebsebseb | by ISP's | Apr 18 02:31 |
sebsebseb | since the goverment requested that | Apr 18 02:31 |
Sosumi | plus most of the stuff I hear | Apr 18 02:31 |
Sosumi | is from artists that are already dead | Apr 18 02:31 |
Sosumi | I'm sure Tchaikovsky wouldn't mind | Apr 18 02:32 |
sebsebseb | ok, but the record companies still want to profit off that hmm | Apr 18 02:32 |
Sosumi | nor Ronnie Dio | Apr 18 02:32 |
Sosumi | that is a problem | Apr 18 02:33 |
Sosumi | once the record label stops printing the album for 3 years after the artist's death | Apr 18 02:33 |
Sosumi | the record label should relinquish its rights | Apr 18 02:33 |
Sosumi | just one example | Apr 18 02:34 |
MinceR | then they'll never stop printing albums | Apr 18 02:34 |
Sosumi | but what if ppl don't buy them | Apr 18 02:34 |
Sosumi | they print according to demmand | Apr 18 02:34 |
MinceR | just like how movie franchise licensees never stop making comic book movie reboots | Apr 18 02:34 |
MinceR | so they don't lose the license | Apr 18 02:34 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: why do you say 3 years after | Apr 18 02:34 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: ? | Apr 18 02:34 |
MinceR | Sosumi: they can keep making a very low number every 3 years | Apr 18 02:35 |
Sosumi | good point | Apr 18 02:35 |
Sosumi | but I just said that as an example on the spur of the moment | Apr 18 02:35 |
sebsebseb | Sosumi: comic book films, yep Spider man sells | Apr 18 02:37 |
sebsebseb | and another is out in the cinema now or soon | Apr 18 02:37 |
Sosumi | spider pig | Apr 18 02:38 |
sebsebseb | the hobbit sells to | Apr 18 02:38 |
sebsebseb | and stuff like that | Apr 18 02:38 |
Sosumi | not a fan of that stuff | Apr 18 02:38 |
sebsebseb | no me either from what I remember of the lord of the rings movies | Apr 18 02:39 |
sebsebseb | I haven't seen the two hobbit films | Apr 18 02:39 |
sebsebseb | yet | Apr 18 02:39 |
sebsebseb | however that kind of stuff is very popular around here | Apr 18 02:39 |
Sosumi | sad | Apr 18 02:42 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: Sosumi oh that Ubuntu GNOME one that came in on the Tuxmachines feed | Apr 18 02:43 |

sebsebseb | MinceR: I am thinking the same about sleep | Apr 18 02:45 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: ok I slept a bit in the chari in the living room, but | Apr 18 02:45 |

schestowitz__ | "That's what I mean though, if the whole thing is open (like phoneblokks was supposed to be) then couldn't third parties offer open source hardware and drivers? Given the target market I'd imagine they'd be popular." | Apr 18 13:39 |
schestowitz__ | "yes, we agree" | Apr 18 13:39 |
msb | schestowitz__: There are many other people saying that the US is fascist other than the groups you mentioned. In fact, the phrases you mentioned are often used to unjustifiably smear honest researchers and advocates. "Conspiracy theorists" is a term invented by the government to discredit JFK assassination researchers. | Apr 18 13:39 |
msb | "Fascism is Corporatism" -- Mussolini | Apr 18 13:41 |
msb | Corporations and ultra-wealthy individuals totally control govt by bribery. They bribe the govt to make laws favorable to them. They bribe the govt to invade and destroy nations that have socialistic economies, so the corporations can then go into those nations and exploit the workers there. | Apr 18 13:43 |
msb | schestowitz__: The fact that some crazy evil people say that something is true does not make it false. To say that it does is a logical fallacy. In this case, it would prevent people from realizing that the US is in fact fascist even when the soldiers are goose-stepping down the streets and shooting people. "Oh no, we can't use the word 'fascism' -- people would associate us with 'conspiracy theorists' and Ron Paul supporters." | Apr 18 13:48 |
msb | schestowitz__: If most people are mind-controlled by lying media and government propagands, thanks to Edward Bernays -- which they are -- then censoring our ideas and speech based on what most people would think PREVENTS US FROM THINKING ACCURATELY. | Apr 18 13:51 |
-->DFS (634ac904@gateway/web/freenode/ip.99.74.201.4) has joined #techrights | Apr 18 13:51 | |
DFS | Is Roy Spamowitz here? | Apr 18 13:51 |
---DFS is now known as Guest36863 | Apr 18 13:51 | |
Guest36863 | He used to spam comp.os.linux.advocacy with 35-50 NEWS posts per day | Apr 18 13:52 |
Guest36863 | For 5 years straight | Apr 18 13:52 |
MinceR | i'm not aware of any person called "Roy Spamowitz" | Apr 18 13:52 |
Guest36863 | He was a degenerate liar, too. | Apr 18 13:52 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, Spamowitz now says he's an 'advocate of fair competition' | Apr 18 13:52 |
MinceR | how does this concern this channel? | Apr 18 13:52 |
Guest36863 | So, when will Spamowitz begin calling for Linux to put price tags on everything? | Apr 18 13:53 |
msb | DFS is one of the most active pro-Microsoft anti-Linux posters in comp.os.linux.advocacy. | Apr 18 13:53 |
MinceR | somehow i suspected that | Apr 18 13:53 |
Guest36863 | I'm not pro-MS | Apr 18 13:54 |
Guest36863 | I don't even like them. | Apr 18 13:54 |
Guest36863 | I like some of their software. | Apr 18 13:54 |
msb | Apparently he posted first under the nick of "DFS", and then changed to "Guest36863". | Apr 18 13:54 |
Guest36863 | I didn't change - the channel changed it for me. | Apr 18 13:54 |
MinceR | he probably didn't identify for DFS | Apr 18 13:54 |
MinceR | no, the channel did not change it | Apr 18 13:54 |
MinceR | NickServ changed it. | Apr 18 13:54 |
Guest36863 | So change it back. | Apr 18 13:54 |
MinceR | it is none of our concern. | Apr 18 13:55 |
MinceR | don't you ever read your status/server window? | Apr 18 13:55 |
Guest36863 | It was flashing by/ jumping around | Apr 18 13:55 |
msb | DFS routinely refers to Roy as "Spamowitz". | Apr 18 13:55 |
Guest36863 | So, when will the 'advocate of fair competition' begin calling for price tags on Linux distros and apps? | Apr 18 13:56 |
Guest36863 | Never, that's when. | Apr 18 13:56 |
MinceR | why should any advocate of fair competition begin calling for that? | Apr 18 13:56 |
Guest36863 | Extremely stupid question. | Apr 18 13:56 |
msb | Which means that he can't answer it. | Apr 18 13:57 |
MinceR | you'll need to adjust that attitude of yours, Guest36863. | Apr 18 13:57 |
Guest36863 | Fair competition would require Linux distros/apps to charge similar prices as those found on commercial software products. | Apr 18 13:57 |
MinceR | no, it would not. | Apr 18 13:57 |
Guest36863 | Yes, it would. | Apr 18 13:57 |
cubezzz | http://www.osdisc.com has been selling DVDs and CDs for years | Apr 18 13:57 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.osdisc.com | OSDisc.com - Buy Linux CDs and DVDs - New Releases. Low Prices. | Apr 18 13:57 | |
MinceR | fair competition is not the same as command economy. | Apr 18 13:57 |
Guest36863 | Giving your code away for free is extremely uncompetitive. | Apr 18 13:57 |
MinceR | it's not exactly that, though | Apr 18 13:57 |
Guest36863 | Funny that Linux can't even be given away. | Apr 18 13:58 |
msb | People create GNU/Linux/FOSS out of enjoyment and generosity and therefore give it away for free. | Apr 18 13:58 |
MinceR | users contribute in exchange for the software -- bug reports, code fixes/patches, etc. | Apr 18 13:58 |
Guest36863 | Add a price tag and watch the howls... | Apr 18 13:58 |
*MinceR adds a price tag saying "0" | Apr 18 13:58 | |
*MinceR waits for the howls | Apr 18 13:58 | |
msb | I used to buy Suse boxed sets. | Apr 18 13:58 |
Guest36863 | But you didn't pay nearly the equivalent of the commercial code. | Apr 18 13:59 |
MinceR | i also didn't receive the equivalent of the commercial code, thankfully | Apr 18 13:59 |
cubezzz | you can charge for discs, manuals, etc | Apr 18 13:59 |
MinceR | as the code you're advertising is of horribly low quality. | Apr 18 13:59 |
cubezzz | there's no rule saying you can't | Apr 18 13:59 |
msb | DFS has been spamming COLA for many years. He will never change his mind. He's probably paid by Microsoft. | Apr 18 13:59 |
Guest36863 | If they create GNU/LInux/FOSS out of generosity, why do most projects ask for donations? | Apr 18 13:59 |
Guest36863 | Only Spamowitz spammed cola with off-topic NEWS.. 5 years straight | Apr 18 14:00 |
msb | People have found proof that Microsoft has employees posting to various FOSS forums. | Apr 18 14:00 |
MinceR | why is news off-topic on COLA? | Apr 18 14:00 |
Guest36863 | of 35-50 posts per day. Full of lies and deceit. | Apr 18 14:00 |
msb | Full of great information. | Apr 18 14:00 |
Guest36863 | If MS does have people posting to forums, so what? | Apr 18 14:00 |
MinceR | and why do i get the suspicion that what you call "lies and deceit" were merely facts that were inconvenient to microsoft munchkins? | Apr 18 14:01 |
msb | I wish Roy would start it again. | Apr 18 14:01 |
Guest36863 | They ought to pay people to counter the lies of Linux idiots. | Apr 18 14:01 |
<--DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Apr 18 14:01 | |
MinceR | no, they paid people to masquerade as grassroots support for microsoft. | Apr 18 14:01 |
Guest36863 | So? | Apr 18 14:01 |
MinceR | that's the "lies and deceit" you're looking for. | Apr 18 14:01 |
cubezzz | astro turfing you mean | Apr 18 14:01 |
Guest36863 | Who pays Linux "advocates" to lie about MS and Windows? | Apr 18 14:01 |
MinceR | indeed | Apr 18 14:01 |
MinceR | GNU/Linux advocates do not need to lie about m$ and windows, as both are atrocious enough as they are. | Apr 18 14:02 |
msb | "If MS does have people posting to forums, so what?" The problem is that they don't SAY they work for Microsoft, and are posting to increase MS's profits. | Apr 18 14:02 |
Guest36863 | They don't need to lie about them, but they do it anyway. | Apr 18 14:02 |
MinceR | again, what makes this relevant to this channel? | Apr 18 14:02 |
msb | Nothing. He'll just do it until somebody blocks him. | Apr 18 14:03 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, my social visit was to ask Spamowitz - the 'advocate of fair competition' - why he doesn't spend years calling for Linux distros and apps to attach a reasonable price tag? | Apr 18 14:03 |
MinceR | i believe there's no person called "Spamowitz" here | Apr 18 14:03 |
Guest36863 | Pass the message onto him for me. Watch him run. | Apr 18 14:03 |
MinceR | nobody of that name responded | Apr 18 14:04 |
MinceR | looks like you're looking in the wrong place. | Apr 18 14:04 |
msb | In a free market, people set the prices of their products as they please. | Apr 18 14:04 |
Guest36863 | There's no M$ or 'munchkins' either. | Apr 18 14:04 |
Guest36863 | So what are you whining about? | Apr 18 14:04 |
MinceR | except for people like you, yes | Apr 18 14:04 |
msb | There are other forms of income than money, such as the satisfaction of helping other people. | Apr 18 14:05 |
Guest36863 | If that's all they're looking for, why do they ask for donations? | Apr 18 14:05 |
msb | DFS is a psychopath and has no empathy, so he doesn't know about that. | Apr 18 14:05 |
MinceR | Guest36863: this might be surprising to you, but despite what bill gates believes, not all software development happens solely in the interest of profits. | Apr 18 14:05 |
Guest36863 | How would you know what Gates believes? | Apr 18 14:06 |
MinceR | from his public letter to "hobbyists" | Apr 18 14:06 |
MinceR | but you haven't read that either, have you? | Apr 18 14:06 |
Guest36863 | He, MS and Windows have done so much more for the world than 'Free software' will do in 1000 lifetimes. | Apr 18 14:06 |
MinceR | free software will indeed never do nearly so much harm as he did | Apr 18 14:07 |
MinceR | Guest36863: so why are you advertising m$ here anyway? what's in it for you? | Apr 18 14:07 |
MinceR | do they pay you? | Apr 18 14:07 |
Guest36863 | So much harm that the world runs to MS throwing $80 billion a year at them. | Apr 18 14:07 |
MinceR | or have you merely made an ill-thought investment in them and aren't willing to learn anything else? | Apr 18 14:07 |
MinceR | yes, m$ corruption and market manipulation has led to them extorting a lot of money from people and states | Apr 18 14:08 |
Guest36863 | Same idiocy found in the tiny brains of all FOSS wackos: "MS is paying you", "your job is threatened by Linux", blah blah | Apr 18 14:08 |
MinceR | for example, the hungarian government pays them a lot for crap they hand to students and lie that they're gratis | Apr 18 14:08 |
MinceR | Guest36863: you still haven't answered any questions. | Apr 18 14:08 |
Guest36863 | What questions? | Apr 18 14:09 |
MinceR | the ones i asked you | Apr 18 14:09 |
msb | Microsoft has never, and probably will never, produce software that assists and augments human thought processes as effectively as GNU/Linux does. | Apr 18 14:09 |
Guest36863 | MS isn't paying me. | Apr 18 14:09 |
MinceR | so, cognitive dissonance, then? | Apr 18 14:09 |
MinceR | or just plain old brain damage? | Apr 18 14:09 |
Guest36863 | 'assists and augments human thought processes'.... BWAHA!!! | Apr 18 14:10 |
Guest36863 | What kind of nutjobs are you people? | Apr 18 14:10 |
MinceR | msb: i think your words are confusing his tiny mind | Apr 18 14:10 |
MinceR | Guest36863: yes, what kind of nutjob are you? | Apr 18 14:10 |
msb | " <Guest36863> If MS does have people posting to forums, so what?" | Apr 18 14:10 |
Guest36863 | Hey, I bet both you dunces (msb and MinceR) have Windows jobs... most 'Linux advocates' do. | Apr 18 14:11 |
msb | He as much as admitted it right there. | Apr 18 14:11 |
MinceR | Guest36863: that's a bet you'd lose | Apr 18 14:11 |
MinceR | Guest36863: so, do you have any job at all? | Apr 18 14:11 |
msb | I think he's doing his job right now, right here. | Apr 18 14:11 |
cubezzz | I use a bunch of different operating sytems | Apr 18 14:12 |
Guest36863 | What does it matter whether I have a Windows job, a Linux job, or no job? | Apr 18 14:12 |
MinceR | Guest36863: if it doesn't matter, why do you ask us about it? | Apr 18 14:12 |
Guest36863 | What matters is when will Spamowitz - the 'advocate of fair competition' - call for LInux to begin competing fairly? | Apr 18 14:12 |
MinceR | Guest36863: does a windows advocate have a windows job? | Apr 18 14:12 |
Guest36863 | So? | Apr 18 14:12 |
MinceR | yeah, so? | Apr 18 14:13 |
cubezzz | windows user, what a surprise | Apr 18 14:13 |
Guest36863 | When will it happen that the 'advocate of fair competition' actually advocates fair competition? | Apr 18 14:13 |
Guest36863 | Never, that's for sure. | Apr 18 14:13 |
MinceR | it happens all the time | Apr 18 14:13 |
Guest36863 | Anyway, tell Spamowitz I dropped by and called out his lies and idiocy. | Apr 18 14:14 |
MinceR | then again, i wouldn't expect a m$ munchkin to have any idea of what "fair competition" is | Apr 18 14:14 |
msb | Obviously MS is worried about the increasing adoption of GNU/Linux, even though the price of most computers that people buy already includes a payment to MS for Windows, even if the purchaser never uses Windows. | Apr 18 14:14 |
MinceR | it being anathema to m$, apparently | Apr 18 14:14 |
cubezzz | sure, whatever mr anonymous 3848592 | Apr 18 14:15 |
msb | DFS and about ten other MS spammers have totally trashed COLA for years, and made it useless as a Linux forum. | Apr 18 14:15 |
<--Guest36863 has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) | Apr 18 14:18 | |
MinceR | strange, he gave up | Apr 18 14:18 |
MinceR | didn't get enough gratis licences for m$ crap this month? | Apr 18 14:18 |
cubezzz | ok, I was going to kick him but I can't remember how to get ops | Apr 18 14:18 |
msb | I have never used MS-Windows. Around 1984 I made a terminal emulator in BASIC that I ran under PC-DOS on my 8088 IBM-PC and used it to communicate with a BSD Unix system at a local university. Around 2000 I switched to Linux.. | Apr 18 14:19 |
MinceR | cubezzz: /cs op #techrights | Apr 18 14:19 |
MinceR | or /chanserv op #techrights | Apr 18 14:19 |

cubezzz | yay | Apr 18 14:19 |
MinceR | msg works too, but is less secure :) | Apr 18 14:19 |
cubezzz | I can't believe I didn't write that down | Apr 18 14:19 |
MinceR | (some scripts seem to use msg with a full nick!user@host spec, that's probably more secure than plain msg) | Apr 18 14:20 |
cubezzz | you're more patient that me MinceR | Apr 18 14:20 |
cubezzz | I think I would have kicked him out sooner | Apr 18 14:20 |
msb | MinceR: Your little person-picture in the Konversation nick list is bold, so I think that means you are already an op. | Apr 18 14:20 |
MinceR | not really, i've asked Roy if i should remove him :> | Apr 18 14:21 |
MinceR | msb: i am but cubezzz wanted to know how to get op | Apr 18 14:21 |
msb | Right. | Apr 18 14:21 |
cubezzz | oh well, so much for today's excitement | Apr 18 14:22 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 18 14:22 |
cubezzz | I didn't really understand his arguments | Apr 18 14:22 |
msb | Debating a shit-hole like that does clarify one's own thoughts on the subject. | Apr 18 14:22 |
cubezzz | I knew he'd be a windows person :) | Apr 18 14:23 |
msb | Nobody could understand his arguments, because they were totally bogus. | Apr 18 14:23 |
cubezzz | duh, I only know how to use one operating system | Apr 18 14:23 |
cubezzz | I didn't get the chance to ask him if he compiles his kernel | Apr 18 14:23 |
msb | His arguments were predicated on lies. | Apr 18 14:24 |
cubezzz | that's my favourite anti-troll comment | Apr 18 14:24 |
MinceR | lol | Apr 18 14:24 |
MinceR | are you sure he knows what a "kernel" is? :> | Apr 18 14:24 |
cubezzz | am I sure? no | Apr 18 14:25 |
msb | Not only doesn't he compile his own kernel (which I don't either, but I could), but he doesn't examine his own mind. So he has no free will. He's not really conscious. | Apr 18 14:26 |
cubezzz | it's like not knowing how to cook | Apr 18 14:27 |
*MinceR doesn't know how to cook | Apr 18 14:27 | |
cubezzz | so you eat fast food all the time... it's not healthy | Apr 18 14:27 |
MinceR | not all the time | Apr 18 14:28 |
msb | Psychopaths can't reconcile their thoughts and behavior with what they know is necessary for human survival and success. So they can't examine their ideas and motives. It would create too much cognitive dissonance. | Apr 18 14:28 |
MinceR | not even most of the time | Apr 18 14:28 |
cubezzz | just make mrproper, make menuconfig and pick what you want | Apr 18 14:29 |
MinceR | cooking doesn't work that way :> | Apr 18 14:29 |
cubezzz | cooking is like programming... | Apr 18 14:29 |
msb | Asian fast food can be excellent. | Apr 18 14:29 |
MinceR | yeah, i had chinese once this week | Apr 18 14:30 |
cubezzz | no one goes around saying "you can't use that recipe for apple pie" | Apr 18 14:30 |
cubezzz | it's just stupid | Apr 18 14:30 |
msb | There's a great Chinese place near me, and they deliver! | Apr 18 14:30 |
MinceR | well, if m$ got into the food business, they would | Apr 18 14:30 |
cubezzz | but for some reason, people put up with closed source | Apr 18 14:30 |
msb | A. Most people don't know much about computing. B. Microsoft spends huge amount of money on lying adverts to deceive people. | Apr 18 14:31 |
cubezzz | msb, you're old enough to know about the pre-windows and pre-microsoft era | Apr 18 14:32 |
cubezzz | there was sharing of code... | Apr 18 14:32 |
msb | Teriyaki, that was it! There was a wonderful Japanese teryaki fast-food place in San Francisco I used to go to all the time. | Apr 18 14:32 |
cubezzz | on BBSes and even usenet | Apr 18 14:33 |
msb | cubezzz: yes. I used to see lots of sharing of Unix code on Usenet through my Unix account. | Apr 18 14:33 |
msb | A lot of it was archived on Simtel20 at White Sands AFB (or whatever it was). | Apr 18 14:34 |

cubezzz | Dr Dobb's published the source for Tiny BASIC in 1975 | Apr 18 14:36 |
cubezzz | msb, uucp? | Apr 18 14:36 |
msb | There was a format for publishing source code in Usenet articles. It wasn't compressed, but had some extra characters for getting whitespace right. | Apr 18 14:37 |
MinceR | uuencode? | Apr 18 14:37 |
msb | cubezzz: I remember uucp, but that was a lower-level protocol. | Apr 18 14:37 |
cubezzz | and the DECUS tapes, I've tapped into that | Apr 18 14:38 |
cubezzz | some good stuff in there | Apr 18 14:38 |
msb | MinceR: yes, I think my terminal would do uuencode and uudecode, but this was something else. I thing wget may still do it. | Apr 18 14:38 |
MinceR | ic | Apr 18 14:39 |
cubezzz | I think ftp predates even tcp/ip | Apr 18 14:40 |
cubezzz | it used NCP, which was the precursor of tcp/ip | Apr 18 14:40 |
msb | This was another protocol for wandering around in a directory structure and downloading what you wanted. But I can't remember the name! | Apr 18 14:41 |
cubezzz | not gopher? | Apr 18 14:41 |
cubezzz | WAIS? | Apr 18 14:42 |
msb | Maybe it was gopher. That feels kind of close to it. | Apr 18 14:42 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.activistpost.com | Activist Post: ‘Kill Switch’ Included on All Cell Phones Made in U.S. by 2015 [ http://ur1.ca/h49ne ] | Apr 19 08:38 | |
MinceR | what's even sadder, it will probably appear in cell phones made elsewhere, too | Apr 19 08:39 |
msb | All those little black objects that people were holding up at the Bundy Ranch encounter with federal troops were cell phones, recording the troops' actions. | Apr 19 08:40 |
msb | Now cops and feds and any govt will be able to wipe those pix and videos instantly so they can't be used as evidence. | Apr 19 08:40 |
MinceR | i don't quite understand how "required" and "voluntary" go together in this case, though | Apr 19 08:41 |
msb | I don't know, but all the phone mfrs are apparently in on it. Now you'd think they'd be against that "anti-theft" measure, because if someone's phone is stolen, they're just gonna buy another one. Ka-ching! | Apr 19 08:42 |
msb | Let's hope someone makes an open-source phone, or one that can be rooted, and this can be fixed by users. | Apr 19 08:44 |
msb | As it is now, cops have to be very careful. The *only* times they get convicted is when someone records their beating/shooting on a cell-phone. | Apr 19 08:46 |
msb | And more and more people have them. | Apr 19 08:46 |
msb | Damn! Yahoo cut off all my list mail ten days ago because some mail bounced at some time, and hasn't sent me anything. For all I know, the Earth could have ascended into the Fifth Dimension. | Apr 19 09:21 |
msb | It's fascism all over again, I tell ya! | Apr 19 09:22 |
MinceR | it's bad idea to rely on yahoo anyway | Apr 19 09:23 |
msb | Well, I was still getting stuff from a few non-yahoo lists. | Apr 19 09:24 |
msb | But most lists moved to yahoo years ago. It's the only way to access them. | Apr 19 09:24 |
MinceR | anyone could run their own lists on their own server(s) via mailman, for example | Apr 19 09:25 |
MinceR | there's no need to give the opportunity to cut anyone off to a microsoft shell company. | Apr 19 09:25 |
msb | Aggh! Yahoo is owned by MS?? | Apr 19 09:26 |
MinceR | not sure if they're owned by m$, but they serve m$ | Apr 19 09:26 |
msb | How? | Apr 19 09:27 |
MinceR | their "search engine" is nothing but a front end to bìng, for example | Apr 19 09:27 |
msb | I just use google, a front end to the CIA. | Apr 19 09:27 |
MinceR | not to the nsa? | Apr 19 09:28 |
MinceR | also, you can achieve further isolation from google via startpage and/or tor | Apr 19 09:28 |
msb | You're right, sorry. Got my TLAs confused. | Apr 19 09:28 |
msb | With my website, trying to hide is useless. | Apr 19 09:28 |
MinceR | you could still deprive them of some information, though | Apr 19 09:29 |

cubezzz | schestowitz, it's very interesting, a microsoft guy was criticizing microsoft | Apr 19 18:33 |
cubezzz | I worked at Microsoft at a time when the company had pretty much taken the market share away from Lotus 1-2-3, Word Perfect, and dBase. By the mid-1990's, Microsoft all but owned the word processing and spreadsheet spaces. And with that control it regularly modified the file formats for applications such as Word and Excel, and even Outlook and PowerPoint. The Office file formats change just about every 2 or 3 years and I have lost track of how many uniq | Apr 19 18:33 |
cubezzz | ue Office file formats there have been. | Apr 19 18:33 |
cubezzz | After owning over 90% of the word processor and spreadsheet market they apparently started to assume that all their customers would just blindly upgrade Microsoft Office every year | Apr 19 18:34 |
cubezzz | this from a former Microsoft guy | Apr 19 18:35 |
cubezzz | he even uses the same terminology I used... | Apr 19 18:37 |
cubezzz | the "Dark Ages" of personal computing | Apr 19 18:37 |

MinceR | keyboards can be connected to most mobile devices | Apr 19 19:00 |
cubezzz | like xlib and motif! :) | Apr 19 19:00 |
MinceR | and built-in keyboards of laptops are inferior anyway | Apr 19 19:00 |
MinceR | none of them use Cherry ML key switches | Apr 19 19:00 |
msb | We should encourage people to get laptops/notebooks, not tablets. | Apr 19 19:01 |
MinceR | laptops and tablets are converging anyway | Apr 19 19:01 |
msb | Much better than touchscreens though. | Apr 19 19:01 |
MinceR | touchscreens are just yet another feature | Apr 19 19:01 |
msb | but they shouldn't substitute for a keyboard | Apr 19 19:02 |
MinceR | not entirely, certainly | Apr 19 19:02 |
msb | keyboard with touchscreen is fine | Apr 19 19:02 |
MinceR | but sometimes they work well | Apr 19 19:02 |

MinceR | or typing when sitting on public transport | Apr 19 19:03 |
MinceR | on a tablet | Apr 19 19:03 |
msb | wherever you are, if you're writing real content, and have a lap, you're better off with a laptop than a tablet | Apr 19 19:04 |
MinceR | holding a laptop on your lap can be rather awkward | Apr 19 19:04 |
MinceR | it's better to sit down at a desk and use a mechanical keyboard | Apr 19 19:04 |
msb | maybe laptops could have neck straps and belt connectors so you can use them standing up, if needed | Apr 19 19:05 |
MinceR | that said, my experiment of replacing my laptop (well, convertible tablet pc) with an arm tablet failed | Apr 19 19:05 |
msb | yes, but you were talking about on public transport -- no desks | Apr 19 19:05 |

msb | right now | Apr 19 19:32 |
MinceR | np | Apr 19 19:33 |
cubezzz | I guess I'm always very memory conservative | Apr 19 19:33 |
cubezzz | I never use more than 4 tabs, and sometimes I don't even use firefox | Apr 19 19:33 |
MinceR | i've found it's easier to move tabs to bookmarks if i can determine the scroll percentage via the Scroll Progress extension and write it into the title | Apr 19 19:33 |
cubezzz | http://www.maxhost.org/other/basic-linux-3-is-lean-and-mean.png | Apr 19 19:34 |
msb | I have plenty more memory, but I think ff constantly cycles thru all the tabs and goes nuts if there are too many, | Apr 19 19:34 |
cubezzz | 16 megs baby :) | Apr 19 19:35 |
cubezzz | you want more colour? | Apr 19 19:36 |

MinceR | icewm is nice :) | Apr 19 19:36 |
cubezzz | I'm pretty sure even BL3 could be improved upon | Apr 19 19:38 |
msb | I keep leaving pages in tabs to look at later, but I forget to. | Apr 19 19:38 |
MinceR | i did that a lot | Apr 19 19:39 |
MinceR | especially if i have already read part of it | Apr 19 19:39 |
MinceR | i figured i could save them to files and print them to pdfs and let my pdf reader remember where i scrolled them | Apr 19 19:40 |
MinceR | but it was too much work so i didn't really do it | Apr 19 19:40 |
MinceR | Scroll Progress makes it a lot easier :) | Apr 19 19:40 |
msb | good for lots of text in a page! | Apr 19 19:41 |
msb | Tablet in the pocket with lots of RAM and SDRAM, running Linux, HUD and chord-keyboard or sensor gloves. Wow, this could be doable right now! | Apr 19 19:44 |
msb | How much do those good HUD glasses cost? | Apr 19 19:45 |
MinceR | dunno | Apr 19 19:45 |
MinceR | many of them aren't even for sale yet | Apr 19 19:45 |
msb | Are there any tablets that run regular x86 Linux instead of ARM? | Apr 19 19:46 |
MinceR | well, the ThinkPad X Series Tablets can do that and are x86 | Apr 19 19:47 |
MinceR | but they're on the heavy side | Apr 19 19:47 |
msb | Of course there's the problem of batteries. | Apr 19 19:47 |
MinceR | there's this >> http://linuxgizmos.com/kids-tablet-runs-android-4-4-on-64-bit-intel-atom/ | Apr 19 19:48 |

MinceR | but i don't know if it can run GNU and X | Apr 19 19:48 |
MinceR | there's the ThinkPad Helix but i don't know if it will run GNU and X | Apr 19 19:50 |
cubezzz | there was a zaurus that ran X | Apr 19 19:51 |

cubezzz | I think SL-700 and higher | Apr 19 19:51 |
msb | Fictional, but has some good hacking and innovative I/O. Definitely worth watching. | Apr 19 19:52 |
msb | Laser hologram display with finger tracking when you stick you finger in the hologram. | Apr 19 19:53 |
msb | And sensor gloves on a different machine. | Apr 19 19:53 |
cubezzz | just put motion sensors on your finger tips | Apr 19 19:53 |
MinceR | you might also need force feedback | Apr 19 19:54 |
cubezzz | it's interesting the touch screen desk from Tron never appeared | Apr 19 19:54 |
cubezzz | as far as I know | Apr 19 19:55 |
msb | doesn't ms have some kind of touchscreen desk? | Apr 19 19:55 |

cubezzz | sorry, there's an earlier one... Blockade by Gremlin, 1976 | Apr 19 20:07 |

msb | I didn't say I invented it. 8^) | Apr 19 20:09 |
cubezzz | no, I realize that | Apr 19 20:09 |
cubezzz | I just meant Blockade predates Dominos | Apr 19 20:09 |
