msb_I was renting a cheap server and put some files on it.  The idiots who run it deleted my files without warning.  They've done it before.  It's always "by accident, very sorry".  I really needed to find out which files were on it, which I had not kept track of.  But I looked in /tmp, sorted it by date, and found files recorded by konsole.  I was looking for a directory listing.  They were mostly binary non-printing chararacters, but I Sep 27 04:11
msb_was able to write a C program to extract the printable ones.  I found a listing for that server, inserted newlines with my "replace" program, and got a decent listing.  After some editing, rtrim, etc. it's good!Sep 27 04:11
MinceRthe strings command extracts strings of printable characters from a streamSep 27 04:13
MinceR(and separates them by line breaks)Sep 27 04:14
msb_The 12 line C program had about 5 errors to start with, but they were easy to fix.Sep 27 04:14
msb_Every printable character was separated from the next one by about 14 non-printables.  Strings wouldn't have worked.Sep 27 04:15
MinceRseems it does exactly what you were looking forSep 27 04:16
MinceR(as long as each string of printables is long enough)Sep 27 04:16
msb_Each string of printables is only one character long.Sep 27 04:17
MinceRoh.Sep 27 04:17
MinceRyeah, it won't work for that :)Sep 27 04:17
*DaemonFC (~DaemonFC@unaffiliated/daemonfc) has joined #techrightsSep 27 04:20
msb_I could have counted characters -- it's a fixed pattern -- but then there would have been the problem of syncronizing.  So I just did   if (ch >= ' ' && ch < 127)Sep 27 04:26
MinceRstrings -n 1 would have done the same, but i'm not sure if the output would have been usefulSep 27 04:30
msb_It works, sort of, but puts a newline after every character.Sep 27 04:32
msb_Removing all the newlines, and then putting them in at the beginning of a listing line (which I did for my program) works, but there are a lot of extra spaces in the text.Sep 27 04:36
msb_It's almost as good.  But I love writing little utility programs and scripts!Sep 27 04:37
msb_Everyone should know how to program.  So they feel that they are in control of the computer, not vice versa.  Of course that only works for FOSS.Sep 27 04:39
msb_Otherwise you're Microshit's or CApple's bitch.Sep 27 04:40
msb_CrAppleSep 27 04:40
msb_That's one of the reasons why I love this article:  http://fossforce.com/2015/09/in-the-seed-of-a-raspberry-is-the-future-of-linux/Sep 27 04:45

msb_Seems weird and complicated.  I don't know anybody who keeps their data in a cloud.  Good big disks are cheap, and Bash, C, Ruby and Python are all great programming languages with plenty of documentation.  And they and Linux all run on a $50 SBC.Sep 27 05:45
gde33|2msb_: it is explained well enough I think?Sep 27 05:46
gde33|2his shop example is greatSep 27 05:47
gde33|2if you control the application the developer doesn't get to charge a fee on every transactionSep 27 05:47
*DaemonFC has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)Sep 27 05:48
gde33|2For example: with other people's apps, when you want to shop on the Internets, you point your browser at amazon.com or use the Google bar as a full-text store. With your own apps, you're more likely to point your browser at your own shopping assistant. This program, which works entirely for you and is not slipping anyone else a cut, uses APIs to sync inventory data and send purchase orders.Sep 27 05:49
gde33|2The difference between apps you control and apps you don't is the difference between a shopping assistant and a store. It would be absurd if a shopping assistant paid its developer a percentage of all transactions. It would be absurd if a store didn't. The general task is the same, but every detail is different.Sep 27 05:50
gde33|2msb_: all these walled gardens are the end of the internetSep 27 05:50
gde33|2you just become everyones slut/slaveSep 27 05:51
msb_What walled gardens?Sep 27 05:51
gde33|2all of the popular web servicesSep 27 05:51
gde33|2nothing is yours on facebookSep 27 05:52
gde33|2nothing is yours on googleSep 27 05:52
gde33|2even when a business really wants to preserve your privacy they can get a gag order and be forced to share your data with hidden peopleSep 27 05:52
msb_so what.  as long as google search works i;ll use it.  Otherwise I'll switch to another.Sep 27 05:52
gde33|2there is no otherSep 27 05:53
msb_Privacy from govts on the Net is impossibleSep 27 05:53
msb_duck duck go, ixquickSep 27 05:53
gde33|2you have to draw the line from the beginning into the futureSep 27 05:53
gde33|2those are walled gardens tooSep 27 05:53
gde33|2you cant see the walled garden?Sep 27 05:54
msb_a web search engine requires hundreds of computers.  It's not going to be in urbit, whatever that is.Sep 27 05:54
gde33|2thats not the point at allSep 27 05:54
gde33|2you could just read the page if you want to know what the point isSep 27 05:55
gde33|2but ok...Sep 27 05:55
gde33|2if you use a web app the developer is in controlSep 27 05:55
gde33|2he just owns youSep 27 05:55
gde33|2you cant migrate, your service can be terminated, your life can be shared with anyoneSep 27 05:55
msb_I don't use web apps except google.Sep 27 05:55
gde33|2but most people doSep 27 05:56
msb_Then they should use FOSS apps on their own computer.Sep 27 05:56
gde33|2everyone is developing internet prisons, I assume this is why you dont want any part of it?Sep 27 05:56
gde33|2certainly but applications on your computer can only do so muchSep 27 05:57
msb_I don't know what you mean.  Run apps on your own cheap computer and cheap disk.  simpleSep 27 05:57
gde33|2you probably have your own server too?Sep 27 05:58
msb_I have a website on a server.Sep 27 05:58
*amarsh04 (~amarsh04@ppp14-2-36-196.lns21.adl2.internode.on.net) has joined #techrightsSep 27 05:58
gde33|2do you control the server?Sep 27 05:59
msb_No, but the guy who does is a good friend.Sep 27 05:59
msb_But if the site got taken down I'd just put it up somewhere else.Sep 27 06:00
gde33|2say we create a model where we chose what other people should be able to access and what should not be accessed by othersSep 27 06:01
gde33|2if we compare the internet to the ideal model it just doesn't work like thatSep 27 06:01
gde33|2it leaks your shit all overSep 27 06:01
gde33|2you and me might be sophisticted enough to deal with the issueSep 27 06:01
msb_I want my shit to be leaked.  I'm _broadcasting_ it!Sep 27 06:02
gde33|2we should also want to end it for othersSep 27 06:02
gde33|2most people dont get what can be done with private dataSep 27 06:02
gde33|2the paterns are well beyond imaginationSep 27 06:02
msb_If they want private data, keep it on their home disk, with a backup.Sep 27 06:02
gde33|2if you have seemingly meaningless data about millions of people you can find paterns no one can imagineSep 27 06:03
gde33|2but the thing we can all see is that mass explotation and monopolization isn't good for anyoneSep 27 06:03
msb_I don't want data about millions of people, and have no way to get it anyhow.Sep 27 06:03
gde33|2we want everyone to use free and opensource softwareSep 27 06:04
gde33|2everything else should just dieSep 27 06:04
msb_So we should broadcast information to as many people as possible telling them about the govts and corps that are exploiting and monopolizing them.Sep 27 06:05
gde33|2that could workSep 27 06:05
gde33|2but programmers should try to fix things by coding, they can get into politics but will quickly find it a full time jobSep 27 06:06
gde33|2they stop being a programer Sep 27 06:06
gde33|2" Since we're doing a clean-slate design, it's a mistake to focus too much on fixing the flaws of the old platform. The correct question is: what is the right way to build a system software stack?" Sep 27 06:07
msb_Your own computer with FOSS and storage and good languages, an internet connection, and a website.  You can also publish on mailing lists.  This all works fine.Sep 27 06:08
msb_Devuan is coming along, so people can stay with a Linux that has lots of up to date apps.Sep 27 06:10
gde33|2centralized systems are points of failureSep 27 06:11
msb_ISP and website cost about $30/monthSep 27 06:11
gde33|2your mailinglist is just deletedSep 27 06:11
msb_there are plenty more, and you can start your ownSep 27 06:11
msb_For some reason, the fascists are not killing lists, youtube, websites, isps, etc.Sep 27 06:12
gde33|2the core idea in urbit is to have n:1 rather than 1:nSep 27 06:13
msb_Or cheap personal computers.  So while we have these things, lets use them to educate the world.Sep 27 06:13
msb_web apps are unnecessarySep 27 06:13
gde33|2what is the reason the facists have not killed those platforms?Sep 27 06:13
msb_I wish I knew.Sep 27 06:14
gde33|2google buys things just to shut them downSep 27 06:14
gde33|2they had google video then purchased youtubeSep 27 06:14
gde33|2they killed google video and destroyed youtubeSep 27 06:15
gde33|2web hosting uses the same modelSep 27 06:15
msb_Youtube is fine, and if necessary you can put videos on your own website.Sep 27 06:15
gde33|2the idea is to allow people to create content because you cant stop themSep 27 06:15
gde33|2but what you can do is just delete everything after a few yearsSep 27 06:15
gde33|2lure people in with a cosy environmentSep 27 06:15
msb_Whatever urbit runs on the govt could stop it.Sep 27 06:16
gde33|2then strip out all the human interaction Sep 27 06:16
gde33|2youtube is nonsense compared to what it wasSep 27 06:16
msb_I save all the youtube videos i'm interested in.Sep 27 06:16
gde33|2it use to have thousands of people making vlogs about things, responding to other peoples videos with video responsesSep 27 06:16
gde33|2it was a community, they purchased a comunitySep 27 06:16
gde33|2this is all dead nowSep 27 06:16
msb_So if people want to respond, they put up their own video.Sep 27 06:17
gde33|2not one of my hundreds of subscriptions is working todaySep 27 06:17
gde33|2people who use to talk about all things in life had millions of viewersSep 27 06:18
gde33|2if you upload a video today it gets 100 viewsSep 27 06:18
gde33|2or non at all, I know people trying to make a channelSep 27 06:18
msb_Stuff on the Net is not permanent.  If you want to keep it, download it to your own disk.Sep 27 06:18
gde33|2some have 0 views on all their videosSep 27 06:18
gde33|2youtube no longer promotes them you see?Sep 27 06:19
gde33|2you are making excuses in stead of understanding the agendaSep 27 06:19
msb_They can promote themselves.Sep 27 06:19
gde33|2non of your excuses change the agendaSep 27 06:19
gde33|2those few TB of geocities, the origin of the internetSep 27 06:19
gde33|2why did they unplug the disks?Sep 27 06:20
gde33|2they had advertisement on all pagesSep 27 06:20
gde33|2light pages with just a bit of text and small imagesSep 27 06:20
gde33|2they lost serious money doing thatSep 27 06:20
gde33|2the reason is simple, it was to get rid of people talking abuot stuffSep 27 06:20
gde33|2you are not suppose to talk with other people about thingsSep 27 06:20
gde33|2it is not part of the grand designSep 27 06:21
gde33|2you should be focsed on the latest news and ignore what happened more than 2 weeks agoSep 27 06:21
gde33|2look at twitter, look at facebookSep 27 06:21
gde33|2it is how it is designed, to hide information more than 10 posts oldSep 27 06:21
msb_Corps and govts are run by psychopaths, and they are always going to try suppress people and their communications.  It requires work to broadcast in spite of them.  So we have to work.Sep 27 06:21
gde33|2certainly, but you have to understand the game first ;)Sep 27 06:22
msb_I never use twitter or fuckbook.Sep 27 06:22
msb_I do.Sep 27 06:22
gde33|2why is that?Sep 27 06:22
gde33|2what is your main reason not to?Sep 27 06:22
msb_They;re crap,Sep 27 06:22
gde33|2in what way?Sep 27 06:22
msb_Full of nonsense from typical programmed people.Sep 27 06:23
gde33|2fair enoughSep 27 06:23
msb_Whereas there are about a dozen great alternate news websites.Sep 27 06:24
gde33|2oh thousandsSep 27 06:24

msb_You're sounding paranoid.  Nobody promised you a rose garden.  Life is tough.  It requires work.  But things are looking up -- Corbyn Sanders, Syriza, Pope Francis, even Putin is doing some good.Sep 27 06:27
gde33|2heh I often get that, people think I'm complaining a lot.Sep 27 06:28
msb_We are living on the cusp of human survival.  We are the heroes we've been waiting for.Sep 27 06:28
gde33|2but I'm very different from those peopleSep 27 06:28
gde33|2I think a lot about how we could make thingsSep 27 06:28

gde33|2its never enough :DSep 27 06:29

msb_Organize!Sep 27 06:30
gde33|2will try, thanks :)Sep 27 06:30
gde33|2I have to redo the ui for this web aggregatorSep 27 06:30
gde33|2it is almighty powerfulSep 27 06:30
gde33|2it has a huge list of badwords and many many thousands of feeds preconfiguredSep 27 06:31
msb_But you bring up good points.  It's important to stay away from clouds and web-apps.Sep 27 06:31

msb_cubexyz: "<cubexyz> I know some people are disparaging chromebooks but I think they are decent enough"  How does the fastest chromebook compare in pure MIPS speed with a modern cheap 8-core CPU like the AMD FX-8350 (which costs $160, but that's just for the CPU)?Sep 27 20:33
msb_Seems to me if you're going to spend a few hundred dollars on a computer, you might as well spend a couple hundred more and get one that's fast enough to display h265 videos, do video transcoding, and video editing.  IOW, get one that's _cheap_ _nearly_ state-of-the-art.Sep 27 20:40
msb_That's my idea of the price/performance sweet spot.Sep 27 20:41
msb_As to coreboot, that's very nice, but all Linuxes have some kind of workaround for UEFI, right?Sep 27 20:42
msb_cubexyz: As an entry-level computer, a chromebook is a step above a SBC, hard disk and TV spread out on a table.  And some people have hard limits on what they can afford...Sep 27 20:47
cubexyzhaving the source code for the firmware is very appealingSep 27 21:01
cubexyza "work-around" is hardly idealSep 27 21:01
msb_True.  But it seems like the choice is between ideological purity and several times the speed.Sep 27 21:03
msb_What is the speed of the fastest Chromebook compared to an AMD FX-8350?Sep 27 21:04
cubexyzI think the fastest chromebook has a i5 Sep 27 21:05
msb_Which i5?Sep 27 21:06
cubexyzgoogle put quite a lot of work into getting coreboot working rightSep 27 21:06
cubexyzactually the pixel has an i7, but it's very expensiveSep 27 21:07
cubexyzi7-5500u dual-core seems to be the top of the line at the momentSep 27 21:09
msb_But once the Linux does boot, one way or another, many people would like to do things that require high CPU speed, like displaying x265's and video editing.Sep 27 21:09
msb_ i7-5500u is 3941 CPUMark, and FX-8350 is 8975 -- 2.27 times faster.  How much does the  i7-5500u Chromebook cost?Sep 27 21:16
cubexyztoo muchSep 27 21:16
cubexyzabout a grandSep 27 21:16
msb_Yikes!  for that you can get a whole FX-8350 desktop.Sep 27 21:16

msb_Don't most mobos today have a way of switching off UEFI?Sep 27 21:18
cubexyzit's not a matter of switching off UEFISep 27 21:18

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.informationclearinghouse.info | Why The US, UK, EU & Israel Want To Destroy Syria [ http://ur1.ca/ndk0k ]Sep 28 02:42
msb_Obama and other US leaders keep repeating "Assad must go" but never say why.  That Syrian girl tells why,Sep 28 02:43
msb_Putin has been sending troops and weapons into Syria to fight Isil.  The US has armed more than 10,000 murderous jihadis and sent them to Syria, calling them "Syrian rebels".  They've all gone over to ISIL, with their weapons.  The US knows this, but since it's goal is to destroy Syria because it is anti-IMF, the US has kept on doing it.Sep 28 02:46
MinceRand advocating for a particular fascist will end fascism.Sep 28 02:47
MinceRbrilliant plan.Sep 28 02:47
msb_Putin is going to speak before the UN General Assembly and explain.  Let's hope he is very explicit about what's going on.Sep 28 02:47
MinceRlike the UN will help anythingSep 28 02:48
MinceRthe UN is trying to bring global censorship to the internetSep 28 02:48
MinceRit has also harmed our rights via things like the WIPO Copyright TreatySep 28 02:49
msb_Carelessly using the labels "fascist" and ":fascism" just causes confusion.  The facts are as I stated them.Sep 28 02:49
MinceRcarelessly helping fascists in their endeavour causes nothing but harmSep 28 02:49
msb_MinceR: Do you think ISIL is OK and should not be fought, like you think Svoboda and Right-Sector are OK?Sep 28 02:51
MinceRwrong on both countsSep 28 02:51
MinceRall three, actuallySep 28 02:51
MinceRbut it's cute how you try to attack and smear me for offending your favorite fascist dictator.Sep 28 02:52
msb_It's true that the UN has done nothing to stop the murderous US aggression against Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Ukraine, and Syria.  It is pretty much a tool of the US/UK/EU/Israel.Sep 28 02:53
MinceRthe UN has done plenty of harmSep 28 02:54
MinceRit's time to get rid of it.Sep 28 02:54
msb_Mincer is lying about me as usual.  Putin is not my favorite.  But he is doing good in Syria, as he did in Crimea, and in forming the Eurasian Coalition.Sep 28 02:54
MinceRthen msb_'s second favorite, after stalin, i guessSep 28 02:54

msb_Since the UN is the only supranational body that's supposed to prevent war, it would be better to reform it than to get rid of it.Sep 28 02:56
MinceRi can't see how forcing evil copyright laws and censorship on the world will prevent warSep 28 02:56
MinceRthe UN is abusing its mandate.Sep 28 02:56
msb_MinceR has written vicious lies about me twice, 3 minutes ago.Sep 28 02:58
MinceRfor an alleged anti-fascist, msb_ sure spends a lot of time advocating for fascistsSep 28 02:58
msb_Carelessly using the labels "fascist" and ":fascism" just causes confusion.  The facts are as I stated them.Sep 28 02:58
MinceRapparently "careful" means "as the russian government instructs"Sep 28 02:59
MinceRif so, i'd rather be carelessSep 28 02:59
MinceRs/careless/"&"/Sep 28 02:59
msb_When MinceR described the Nazi coup in Ukraine he said it was just Ukraine seeking aid from EU.  He omitted the role of the Svoboda and Right-Sector Nazi soldiers that were firing into the crowd.Sep 28 03:02
msb_When I posted the article about it in response to him, he posted articles about vaccines.Sep 28 03:02
MinceRthat would be because svoboda and right sector were and still are a minority of that sideSep 28 03:03
MinceRthe article was russian propagandaSep 28 03:03
MinceRfrom a site that spews russian propaganda and other nonsenseSep 28 03:03
msb_The coup would not have succeeded without them.Sep 28 03:04
MinceRwould shutting down the UN harm the USA?Sep 28 03:04
MinceRand how do you know that? did putin say it?Sep 28 03:04

MinceRlaws can be harmful.Sep 28 03:07
MinceRand they often are.Sep 28 03:07
msb_The wiki article does not mention the UN, nor  reverse engineering software for compatibility.  Please give a referenceSep 28 03:09

MinceRand they forced this "treaty" on most of the planetSep 28 03:10
msb_reverse engineering software for compatibility.  Please give a referenceSep 28 03:11
MinceRthey also granted it an illusion of legitimacySep 28 03:11
MinceRfor example, reverse engineering a DRM implementation to provide a compatible oneSep 28 03:11
MinceR"It also prohibits circumvention of technological measures for the protection of works"Sep 28 03:11
MinceRi think it was broader than that, but maybe that was only the DMCASep 28 03:12
MinceRwhich is the USA's implementation of the WCTSep 28 03:12
MinceRof course, the WIPO is all about "intellectual property"Sep 28 03:13
msb__That_ is fascism -- violence to protect the ultra-wealthy.  Well, Linux users have been using libdvdcss to decode dvds for many years.  It just has to be gotten from separate websites.  When psychopath fascism rules the world, it's good for people to learn to be outlaws!Sep 28 03:16
msb_"intellectual property" is a scam that benefits the ultra-wealthySep 28 03:17
msb_The RT program I linked to a couple of days ago said exactly that, quoting, IIRC, a non-Russian philosopher.Sep 28 03:18
msb_This is what RT quoted:  http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/Sep 28 03:24
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.thezeitgeistmovement.com | The Zeitgeist Movement GlobalSep 28 03:24
msb_Among other things it said that every idea is based on a pile of previous ideas, so should not belong to any one person.Sep 28 03:25
msb_"Human knowledge belongs to the World"   "Information wants to be free"Sep 28 03:25
MinceRit's a pity that humans don't want to be freeSep 28 03:26
MinceRit would be so much easier if they didSep 28 03:26
msb_MinceR: Please read this.  It may improve your ability to think accurately.  http://www.rational.org.nz/prof-docs/Intro-CBT.pdfSep 28 03:27
msb_Most humans _do_ want to be free.  They were born that way.  Through child abuse and social programming they may no longer seek freedom, or they may, but not know how to get it.  But these problems can be remedied.Sep 28 03:29
MinceRthen they're acting against their own desires, consistentlySep 28 03:30
msb_They are conflicted because of programming.Sep 28 03:30
msb_Social programming and childhood trauma.Sep 28 03:31
msb_The organized ruling psychopaths want obedient slaves, so they inflict that programming and trauma (for example, sit-down-and-shut-up educational system).Sep 28 03:34
MinceRif so, it's scary effectiveSep 28 03:34
msb_But it's possible for people to observe and examine their own minds and overcome it.  Cannabis can help.Sep 28 03:34
msb_It certainly is.Sep 28 03:34
msb_But by explaining it and broadcasting the explanation, we can help save the human race.Sep 28 03:36
MinceRwell, we can try, anywaySep 28 03:36
msb_That's what I've tried to do here, but it needs rewriting.  It's too much in-your-face.  It also needs links.  http://cosmicpenguin.com/CauseAndCure.htmlSep 28 03:39

msb_The refugee problem is at last drawing the world's attention to the enormous death and destruction resulting from US/UK/NATO/EU attacks on Iraq Afghanistan Libya Syria -- nations that few people elsewhere evidently thought about before the flood of millions of refugees whose home nations were ruined by the US.  And some US document has been revealed from years ago saying that this was the intention.Sep 28 12:04
msb_The US has justified all those attacks and mass murders on the basis of the 9/11 attacks.  And that's why it's so important that research has shown that the WTC was blown up by explosives which only the US government could have planted there. http://cosmicpenguin.com/#911 Sep 28 12:08

msb_People calling themselves "9/11 researchers" and putting out claims that anyone with good sense and a knowledge of physics and technology can tell are ridiculous.  Sep 28 12:59
msb_Yes.  There are simple explanations for how all of Hutchison's "effects" are faked.Sep 28 13:00

cubexyzas I said... the raspberry pi isn't that great of a choice anywaysSep 28 18:40
cubexyzmicrosoft's machinations notwithstandingSep 28 18:40
MinceRat least it's well supportedSep 28 18:41
MinceRone can easily enable fullhd 24bit output, it's documented and it actually worksSep 28 18:42
MinceRalso, it's not limited to one distro that the vendor sort of hacked up so it kind of worksSep 28 18:42
MinceRalso, it doesn't need to be flashed (risking bricking) to make it run an os of the user's choiceSep 28 18:42
cubexyzsomeone has to do that, and I'd like to be able to flash stuff with firmware I compiled myselfSep 28 18:43

msb_Doesn't anyone do disassembly anymore?  Seems like a clever multipass disassembler could make it easy.Sep 28 18:46

cubexyzlsSep 29 14:52
cubexyzwarning to all:Sep 29 14:53
cubexyzBIOS is gummed up with lots of Microsoft crapSep 29 14:54
cubexyzwhen you look at the docs there's a big pic of NDA Required at the topSep 29 14:54
cubexyzI'm surprised there isn't a frowning Big Brother as wellSep 29 14:55
cubexyzall hypothetically speaking you understand :)Sep 29 14:55
cubexyzanyways, that's why things are in a bad stateSep 29 14:57
cubexyzMicrosoft has the BIOS writers by the ballsSep 29 14:58
cubexyzI'm sure no one is surprisedSep 29 14:58
MinceRwell, TianoCore and UEFI itself is chock full of m$-isms despite allegedly coming from intelSep 29 14:59
cubexyzIntel used their own tools at the very beginning of the life of the IBM PCSep 29 15:01
cubexyzbut soon after that they switched to Microsoft tools to write BIOSSep 29 15:01
cubexyzbut yes, UEFI formats mirror Microsoft WindowsSep 29 15:02

cubexyzmost likely Intel is cutting exclusionary deals with OEMsSep 29 15:09
cubexyzAMD even skipped chromebooksSep 29 15:14
cubexyzthey went windows 10Sep 29 15:14
cubexyzhardly a good situationSep 29 15:14
cubexyzHP covered both basesSep 29 15:15
cubexyzthey made a windows 10 laptop and several models of chromebooksSep 29 15:15
cubexyzthe OEMs on the chromebook side are Samsung, ASUS, Toshiba, Acer, Lenovo, Dell and HPSep 29 15:16

DaemonFCI'm on my Chromebook. My desktop computer is somewhere in this mess. We're living in John's efficiency apartment for a few days while they get a much bigger one ready.Sep 30 12:50
DaemonFCMinceR: I took the two kittens we had left to the SPCA to get their shots and deworming and to get them spayed. They'll be up for adoption soon.Sep 30 12:51
DaemonFCI gave them temporary names on the forms so that I could see where they end up going for adoption.Sep 30 12:51
DaemonFCI named them Rose and River. :)Sep 30 12:52
MinceR:)Sep 30 12:52
DaemonFCJabba (my cat) and Leeloo (John's cat. He let me name her a few months ago.) are not getting along very well.Sep 30 12:53
DaemonFCWe've been alternating them between the main living area and the walk-in closet and bathroom area.Sep 30 12:53
DaemonFCEvery time they see each other they hiss and growl.Sep 30 12:53
DaemonFCI guess that'll go on for a while until they get used to the fact that they're both here now.Sep 30 12:54
DaemonFCThe lady at the SPCA said that they wouldn't hurt each other, but I've been too afraid to just let them have it out.Sep 30 12:54
schestowitzHi DaemonFCSep 30 12:54
DaemonFCWhen we get the bigger apartment, I'll let them hiss and growl and run away from each other like she said they would.Sep 30 12:54

DaemonFCI told John that we can get Leeloo spayed next month when the Hope For Animals place can get her in.Sep 30 12:56
DaemonFCJabba's fixed, so there won't be any Jabbaloo kittens running around.Sep 30 12:56
DaemonFCLMAOSep 30 12:56
DaemonFCschestowitz: Yeah, that happened already.Sep 30 12:56
schestowitzspayed, eh/Sep 30 12:56
schestowitzSo you're not "pro lifer"Sep 30 12:56
DaemonFCDave. They're still not divorced yet.Sep 30 12:56
schestowitzOr maybe that applies not to non-human animals in the US...Sep 30 12:56
DaemonFCschestowitz: She was pregnant when we found her.Sep 30 12:57
schestowitz"baby killer!"Sep 30 12:57
DaemonFCSo we took care of the five kittens she had. We found people to adopt three of them directly, but the last two went to the SPCA. They'll be up for adoption at Petsmart most likely.Sep 30 12:57
DaemonFCschestowitz: I don't think that there's anything wrong with getting a cat neutered or spayed so that it won't produce any more kittens.Sep 30 12:58
DaemonFCThere's too many roaming the streets as it is. They're not in any danger of going extinct.Sep 30 12:58
msb_DaemonFC: The two cats that don't like each other -- are their claws trimmed?Sep 30 12:59
DaemonFCJabba was declawed before I got him.Sep 30 12:59
DaemonFCWe're not getting Leeloo declawed.Sep 30 12:59
DaemonFCI read up on it, and I think it should be illegal to get a cat declawed,Sep 30 12:59
DaemonFCIt is in 37 countries, but not in the US, except for 8 cities.Sep 30 13:00
DaemonFCThe operation is dangerous and it can cause more problems for you and the cat than it solves.Sep 30 13:00
DaemonFCIt's better to get them a scratching post and encourage them to use that.Sep 30 13:00
DaemonFCI like cats, but they reproduce like crazy if you don't get that taken care of.Sep 30 13:02
DaemonFCA breeding pair of cats can result in 480,000 kittens in just 7 years.Sep 30 13:02
DaemonFCNature is harsh, so it encourages reproducing in huge numbers so that some will live on to have offspring themselves.Sep 30 13:03
msb_I said claws _trimmed_, not declawed.  Get a wire-stripper like this:  http://learning.hccs.edu/faculty/khansaa.almansor1/cett1321/wiring-2/wiring-1/wire-stripper/imageSep 30 13:03
DaemonFCIn nature, humans only live 35 or 40 years. That's why I crack up when people say they want to "go back to nature".Sep 30 13:03
MinceRreligion poisons everything >> http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/next-door-to-delhi-mob-kills-50-year-old-injures-son-over-rumours-they-ate-beef/Sep 30 13:04
DaemonFCModern living has doubled our life expectancy. I wonder how many people really want to give that up.Sep 30 13:04
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-indianexpress.com | Dadri: Mob kills man, injures son over ‘rumours’ that they ate beef | The Indian Express [ http://ur1.ca/nvvym ]Sep 30 13:04
msb_Adjust the screw so it can close completely.  Then press on the cat's toe so the claw emerges, and place the tip of the claw -- the clear part only, not containing blood vessels  -- in the triangular notches of the wirestripper and close it.  That cuts the claw from 4 sides so it doesn't split.Sep 30 13:05
msb_Repeat for all front and back claws.  Removing the sharp tip of the claw greatly decreases the amount of injury it can cause.Sep 30 13:07
msb_DaemonFC: some cats need wrapping in a towel and holding by another person to trim their claws.  Some don't mind, especially if you only do a few claws at a time.Sep 30 13:09
msb_Of course, only indoor-only  cats should have their claws trimmed.Sep 30 13:10
msb_DaemonFC: You can also have the vet grind off the very tips of the fangs of an indoor cat during neutering/spaying if it bites.Sep 30 13:12
msb_DaemonFC: Neither claw-trimming nor fang de-pointing detracts from the quality of life of an indoor-only cat in any way.  They can still climb scratching-posts, chew meat, etc.Sep 30 13:13
DaemonFCShe's a good cat.Sep 30 13:13
DaemonFCVery mild mannered.Sep 30 13:13
DaemonFCYeah, I had to have a tooth resurfaced once. It worked out okay. I'd imagine it's about the same for a cat.Sep 30 13:14
msb_Please spread the word on the wire-stripper.  All Radio Shacks have them for $5 or less, and they do a much better job than the claw trimmers from a pet store that only cut the claw from 2 sides instead of 4.Sep 30 13:16
msb_Those can painfully split the claw.Sep 30 13:16

msb_DaemonFC: Claw  trimming only has to be done about once a week.  It takes the cat that long to sharpen them up again on the scratching-post or carpet.Sep 30 13:22
msb_DaemonFC: Some cats enjoy being turned on their back on a bed and wrestling with your hand.  That's much more fun for the person if the cat's claws can't wound them.Sep 30 13:24

cubexyzok, I can make some remarks on why the firmware situation is so poorSep 30 13:27
cubexyzfirst of all the BIOS writers, with the exception of Coreboot/Libreboot are using Microsoft programming tool to write the BIOSSep 30 13:29
cubexyzMicrosoft also added things to the PCI specSep 30 13:29
cubexyzthe trend almost from the very beginning of the IBM PC was to use Microsoft programming toolsSep 30 13:30
msb_What things, and does the MS assembler write bad code?Sep 30 13:30
cubexyzAward was using different Masm versions, so was Intel/IBMSep 30 13:31
cubexyzwell it's bad in that it's highly proprietary closed source codeSep 30 13:32
cubexyzalso some of the chips used in motherboards you have to sign an NDA to see the datasheetsSep 30 13:33
cubexyzand of course with secure boot/intel boot guard you couldn't even change the firmware if you wanted toSep 30 13:33
cubexyzstandard price to get the source code (and sign the NDA)?Sep 30 13:34
cubexyzat least $20KSep 30 13:34

cubexyzshort story: Intel is using consumer lock-in tacticsSep 30 13:43
cubexyzbasically you want at least a motherboard without secure boot/intel boot guardSep 30 13:45
cubexyzideally you want a motherboard with coreboot Sep 30 13:45
msb_Of course I'm not recommending that anyone use any ms product, but if someone uses masm, or even msc, it's silly to shun the resulting product.   I think it's also silly to take a two-thirds speed decrease on your computer in order to avoid closed-source BIOS (although it may be safer to us an AMD than an Intel CPU).Sep 30 13:45
cubexyzwell, I'm drawing a line hereSep 30 13:47
msb_Ideally, yes.  But since I can get a mobo in which I can turn off secure-boot/boot-guard/UEFI, and get 3 times the MIPS speed as the fastest cheap one with coreboot, I want the speed.Sep 30 13:47
cubexyzwe'll see if things get even worse in the futureSep 30 13:47
cubexyzmsb_, I'm getting closer to a solutionSep 30 13:48

msb_How is Intel using consumer lock-in tactics?Sep 30 13:54
cubexyz"Artec, Tyan Technexion and MSI ship coreboot for _specific systems_ on request"Sep 30 13:54
cubexyzI hear you can't change the CPU on some motherboardsSep 30 13:55
cubexyzCPU is fused to the motherboardSep 30 13:55
MinceRi think i have at least 2 of thoseSep 30 13:55
MinceRVIA EPIA and some Shuttle Atom-based bare-bonesSep 30 13:56
cubexyzI'm contacting Tyan about this nowSep 30 13:57
msb_That doesn't lock the consumer into using an Intel CPU.  You can't use an AMD CPU on a mobo meant for Intel anyhow.  It just saves the cost of a ZIF socket.Sep 30 13:58
msb_Actually it might _cost_ Intel money, because with a socket, the user might buy another, faster Intel CPU.Sep 30 13:59
cubexyzcall it planned obsolescence thenSep 30 14:00
msb_cubexyz: Please ask Tyan if they have a user-type mobo (with audio, USB, etc) for an AMD FX-8350, with coreboot.Sep 30 14:02
cubexyzI will, but I can't get through their web portal at the moment :-/Sep 30 14:02
msb_Seems like the whole Net has slowed down the  past couple of weeks.Sep 30 14:04
cubexyzyou can get tyan motherboards with and without integrated audio Sep 30 14:07
cubexyzwith AMD Opteron 1300 seriesSep 30 14:08
msb_It's nice to have the standard ATX audio panel on the back (if the onboard audio chip is Linux compatible), and also nice to have lots of USB3 connections.Sep 30 14:09
*liberty_box has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Sep 30 14:10
msb_opteron 1300s are slow -- passmark 2600.  FX8350 is 8976Sep 30 14:15
msb_Searchable speed/price chart:  https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.phpSep 30 14:16
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.cpubenchmark.net | PassMark - CPU Benchmarks - List of Benchmarked CPUs [ http://ur1.ca/nvwi8 ]Sep 30 14:16
msb_cubexyz: Do the Tyan coreboots have binary blobs for some of the chips?Sep 30 14:23
cubexyzdon't knowSep 30 14:23
cubexyzIt's been a long time since I've really looked closely at tyanSep 30 14:24
msb_If they do, isn't that just as bad, because Evil (from the Eighth Dimension) could be hiding in them?Sep 30 14:24
cubexyzit's "evil" in that you don't know what it's doingSep 30 14:28
cubexyzannoying is a better word in most casesSep 30 14:28
cubexyze.g. secret protocols are annoyingSep 30 14:29
cubexyzit takes a lot of time figuring them outSep 30 14:29
cubexyzsometimes it's not as critical... for example the VGA BIOSSep 30 14:30
cubexyzI know roughly what it's doing without completely understanding itSep 30 14:30
cubexyzso it's a matter of trying to understand the computer as much as possibleSep 30 14:30
msb_You can _see_ what that's doing.Sep 30 14:30
cubexyzI can't see what my ethernet card is doing unless I'm monitoring itSep 30 14:32
cubexyzmost of the traffic is invisibleSep 30 14:32
cubexyzI do have a screen just for that but it's just too much info to look atSep 30 14:33
cubexyzwhat is the frame buffer doing? I only have a vague ideaSep 30 14:34
msb_Consider the disk controller BIOS.  To ascertain that it's controlling the disk drives properly, would take a huge amount of work and knowledge even if you have the source code. But it probably is OK, because if it weren't it would cause errors, and they'd fix it.   But if there's a secret section in there that looks for the phrase :"The King is a fink", and reports you to the govt if it finds that in a file, then you want the source Sep 30 14:35
msb_code.Sep 30 14:35
cubexyzI can't really reset the framebuffer in openbsd as yetSep 30 14:36
DaemonFCA guy walks into the doctor's office. Says, "Well doc, I've got a problem with hemorrhoids. What should I use to get rid of them?" The doctor says, "Gasoline.". The patient gives the doctor a look and asks "Are you sure about that?". The doctor says, "Of course. Everyone knows you can get 500 piles a gallon!".Sep 30 14:37
cubexyzif the text console borks up in openbsd I have two choicesSep 30 14:38
cubexyzI can use a serial port loginSep 30 14:39
cubexyzor sshSep 30 14:39
cubexyzbut I would still like to be able to reset the text consoleSep 30 14:39
cubexyzso far, I haven't figured it outSep 30 14:39

msb_Of course you have to have the stty command available.Sep 30 14:46

cubexyzobviously it's not in corebootSep 30 18:33
cubexyzI compiled it myselfSep 30 18:33
msb_Here's a C program that prints all printable characters and ignores any non-printable ones:Sep 30 18:33
msb_#include <stdio.h>Sep 30 18:35
msb_#include <stdlib.h>Sep 30 18:35
msb_int main(void)Sep 30 18:35
msb_{Sep 30 18:35
msb_  int ch;Sep 30 18:35
msb_while(1)Sep 30 18:35
msb_{Sep 30 18:35
msb_if ((ch = fgetc(stdin)) == EOF)Sep 30 18:35
msb_  exit(0);Sep 30 18:35
msb_else Sep 30 18:35
msb_  if (ch >= ' ' && ch < 127)Sep 30 18:35
msb_printf("%c", ch);Sep 30 18:35
msb_}Sep 30 18:35
msb_}Sep 30 18:35
msb_So run that on the bios and then grep -i the output for lojack.  Their vanity may have led them to put it in there in the clear.Sep 30 18:37
msb_That'Sep 30 18:39
cubexyzhmmm, it looks like you have to pay an extra $125 to get Lojack on Panasonic ToughbookSep 30 18:40
msb_That's an extremely sophisticated program that I wrote for analyzing konsole temp files, which have about 10 non-printables between every text character.Sep 30 18:40
cubexyzwhat's the non-printable characters for?Sep 30 18:40
msb_I didn't try to find out.  Formatting, I guess.Sep 30 18:41
msb_Remember how on some IBM mainframes you'd pay them half a million dollars for a speed increase and a tech would come in and just move a jumper?  The whole lojack may be in there, and they may just change a byte when you pay the $125.Sep 30 18:43
msb_Much easier for inventory tracking.Sep 30 18:43
cubexyzAMI might ship the BIOS to the OEM then the OEM would add the lojack partSep 30 18:44
cubexyzthen it wouldn't turn up in the sourceSep 30 18:44
msb_What's the diff?  We don't get to see the AMI source anyhow.Sep 30 18:45
cubexyzhaSep 30 18:45
cubexyzit's aroundSep 30 18:45
cubexyzthe Russians even have it on the webSep 30 18:46
msb_No matter how paranoid you are, you're not paranoid enough.  Tell the truth.  Reach as many people as you can with it -- that's your weapon.Sep 30 18:48
msb_  -- Susanne Modeski, "Unusual Suspects", _X-Files_Sep 30 18:48
msb_I guess XRevan86 is right to be worried about spyware in the BIOS.  He likes systemd but I'll bet it'll be in there too if it isn't already.  "Paranoia is just a form of heightened awareness."Sep 30 18:53
msb_Our whole mainstream culture is built around the insectoid psychopath channel in the human mind -- the religions, the economic system, the government, the educational system, the commercial media.Sep 30 18:56
cubexyzhe's right... it's there sometimesSep 30 18:57
MinceRi wouldn't blame insects for thosSep 30 18:57
MinceRs/hos/his/Sep 30 18:57
cubexyzlojack is in the BIOS some of the timeSep 30 18:57
MinceRi think all the blame lies on humansSep 30 18:57
msb_The US govt blows up the tallest buildings in New York and blames it on Arabs, so it can murder millions of them.  The US govt has its Ukrainian Nazi proxies shoot down an airliner with 300 people on board and blames Russia.Sep 30 18:58
msb_MinceR: I'm not blaming insects, I'm saying that the psychopath channel in the human brain is like insectoids in scifi -- no feelings, no empathy.Sep 30 18:59

msb_Windows update?  Same thing with systemd.  Poettering puts out a source code blob update that works normally, but has an NSA backdoor cleverly hidden in it.  How many distro admins are going to read through all of that source code and figure out that with a particular stack overflow some binary code gets executed?Sep 30 20:42

gde33|2.onion is a special-use top level domain suffix designating an anonymous hidden service reachable via the Tor network. Such addresses are not actual DNS names, and the .onion TLD is not in the Internet DNS root, but with the appropriate proxy software installed, Internet programs such as web browsers can access sites with .onion addresses by sending the request through the network of Tor servers.

msb_No you haven't.  You haven't refuted anything about 911 or chemtrails.Oct 01 17:15
msb_And now you've given an extremely lame excuse for not doing it -- saying you did it before and I ignored it.  Present your refutations again.Oct 01 17:16
msb_Refute Newton's Laws of Motion.  Refute the thermite research.  Refute Dane Wigington's evidence.Oct 01 17:19
MinceRyou haven't calculated anything using newton's laws of motionOct 01 17:20

MinceRalso, see aboveOct 01 17:20
msb_Newton:  F=ma is a vector equation.  10-ton girders accelerated horizontally to 70mph required a horizontal force -- explosives, not gravity.Oct 01 17:22
msb_Thermite particles were found in all the 911 dust.  They cannot be generated from jet fuel and steel -- different atomic elements.Oct 01 17:23
msb_Wigington's website is http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/  His detailed copious evidence is presented there.Oct 01 17:24

cubexyzdidn't someone try to blow up the WTC before?Oct 01 17:28
cubexyzthere could have been residual traces of thatOct 01 17:28
msb_Yes, the FBI and Mossad infiltrated a muslim study group and got them to drive a truck of dynamite or other nitrate explosive under the towers.  But dynamite and thermite are chemically totally different.Oct 01 17:30
cubexyz1993Oct 01 17:31
msb_MinceR: Here it is:  http://aldeilis.net/truth/119.pdfOct 01 17:32
MinceRthe origin of the "red/gray chips" is uncertainOct 01 17:37
msb_Normal thermite is a mixture of aluminum and iron oxide powders.  The thermitic chips found in the dust were thin flakes with the Al on one side and the Fe203 on the other, in intimate contact so the reaction proceeds very rapidly.Oct 01 17:39
MinceRsure, but how do we know the alleged citizens who turned them in really found them where they say they did?Oct 01 17:39
MinceR(or even when they did)Oct 01 17:39
msb_The were produced by a sol-gel process in a US lab.  I have a paper with the details.Oct 01 17:40
msb_It's very high-tech.  They can't be produced by accident.Oct 01 17:41
MinceRthey can be submitted by foreign disinformation agents, thoughOct 01 17:42
MinceRand then you can analyze them using totally credible techniques and still be misledOct 01 17:42
msb_Are you claiming that all the people who scraped the dust off their windowsills were working for Putin?Oct 01 17:43
MinceRno, i'm saying the 4 people mentioned in the study may have been working for putinOct 01 17:43
MinceRas such, they may have not scraped the chips off their windowsillsOct 01 17:44
msb_Even the US govt lying propaganda sites don't say that.Oct 01 17:44
MinceRdo those sites acknowledge the red/gray chips issue at all?Oct 01 17:44
msb_Some say they were flecks of paint.Oct 01 17:45
MinceRi've seen rebuttals to thatOct 01 17:45
MinceRbut those replies may be "loose change"-levelOct 01 17:45
msb_But paint flecks don't burst into a shower of bright sparks when heated to a few hundred degrees.Oct 01 17:46
MinceRindeedOct 01 17:46
MinceRsuch paint would probably not be allowed to be used in buildingsOct 01 17:46
MinceRbut we still don't really know where they come fromOct 01 17:46
msb_Correct.  Elemental aluminum is a very high-energy reducing agent.Oct 01 17:46
msb_Thermite burns with a very bright actinic light.  The chips had to be below ground or the light would have been seen.  They were used to melt the girders below ground level.Oct 01 17:48
MinceRhow did they get out of the site, then?Oct 01 17:48
msb_Some unburned ones were carried up by the hot air produced by the others.Oct 01 17:49
MinceRalso, were the girders visible from areas visitors and office workers and such were normally in within the building?Oct 01 17:49
MinceR(if not, maybe they could have been used higher up)Oct 01 17:50
msb_Not underground where the thermite was.  The thermite could have been poured into the hollow box-columns thru the inspection holes left in them.Oct 01 17:51
msb_Conventional explosives were used above ground.  Light from thermite would have shown on the videos.Oct 01 17:52
MinceRconventional explosives produce light too, don't they?Oct 01 17:53
msb_Brief flashes.Oct 01 17:53
msb_But the explosives were hidden in the concrete cores of the towers, built in to them.  But without detonators, which were added shortly before 9/11.Oct 01 17:54
MinceRother sources say the aluminium in the flakes was not aluminium metal, but as part of kaolin (aluminium silicate)Oct 01 17:54
MinceRwhich is not uncommon in paintOct 01 17:54

msb_aluminum silicate is already oxidized.  It can't burn.  It's clay.Oct 01 17:55
MinceRindeedOct 01 17:55
msb_I should say the aluminum in aluminum silicate is already oxidized.Oct 01 17:56
msb_Elementary chemistry.Oct 01 17:56
msb_Fig. 19 and 29 shows the thermitic chips igniting.Oct 01 17:59
msb_Burning aluminum produces extremely high energy, much more than burning coal or wood.  It has such high energy that it can pull the oxygen out of iron oxide, leaving molten iron.   That molten iron can be used to weld railroad tracks, which is or was a principle use of thermite.Oct 01 18:07

msb_cubexyz: In 1984 PCDOS and an IBM-PC with a 15MB disk was a very limited system compared to much more expensive PDP-11s available.  But it was more powerful than a PDP-8 or PDP-12 and had plug-in boards you could put your own circuitry on and control by I/O instructions.  It had an assembler and C compiler (for a few hundred dollars more) and came with BASIC.  I taught myself programming on such a machine and did a lot of good work on Oct 01 23:13
msb_it.  XTREE was an excellent filemanager/editor, like mc today.  I had a categorized collection of about 70 utility programs on a floppy disk that I took with me to consulting jobs.  It was a good time!Oct 01 23:13
cubexyzsorry?Oct 01 23:13
cubexyzPDP-11 was what I was talking aboutOct 01 23:14
cubexyzI'm saying that PDP-11 series was more open and more powerful than msdos machines, which it wasOct 01 23:14
msb_"<cubexyz> MSDOS with 640K was a joke"Oct 01 23:15
cubexyzyou got operating system sourceOct 01 23:15
cubexyzit was way better, but more expensive is what I saidOct 01 23:15
cubexyzrightOct 01 23:15
cubexyzso was EMS Oct 01 23:15
cubexyzmsdos with real mode wasn't good at allOct 01 23:16
cubexyz1 meg windowOct 01 23:16
MinceR640kB should be enough for anybody!Oct 01 23:16
MinceR(just like windows.)Oct 01 23:16
cubexyzPDP-11Oct 01 23:17
cubexyzPDP-11 had a proper MMUOct 01 23:17
cubexyzall the higher order computers had MMUs Oct 01 23:19
cubexyzI wasted a lot of time programming around MSDOS limitationsOct 01 23:20
cubexyzhimem.sys?Oct 01 23:20
cubexyzAmiga was better, IBM S/370 was better, Sun was betterOct 01 23:21
cubexyzand PDP-11 was betterOct 01 23:21
msb_I had a high-res color monitor and display card on my cheap PC, and wrote a lot of artistic graphics programs.Oct 01 23:23
msb_It had BIOS source and electrical schematics!Oct 01 23:25
msb_At various times I intercepted the system call interrupts and put in my own "wedges" in order to modify the actions of the BIOS and/or OS.Oct 01 23:26
msb_Having started on a PDP-12 with IIRC 4K of 12-bit RAM I was very happy with my much more powerful PC.Oct 01 23:27
msb_Maybe the 12 was only 2K.Oct 01 23:28
cubexyzyou're jumping erasOct 01 23:28
msb_No, I think PDP-12 came before the 11.Oct 01 23:29
cubexyzthat's what I meanOct 01 23:29
cubexyzPDP-12 was much earlier was it not?Oct 01 23:29
cubexyzcompared to your .... what... 286 PC?Oct 01 23:29
msb_In any case I learned assembly on a 12, and then got a PC with C.Oct 01 23:29
cubexyzI'm guessing 286 since you mentioned BIOS sourceOct 01 23:29
msb_My PC was 8088.  The BIOS source came in a 3-ring binder for about 50-70 bucks.Oct 01 23:30
cubexyzok, early 1980s thenOct 01 23:30
msb_including the schematics.Oct 01 23:30
msb_yesOct 01 23:30
cubexyzmy notes say PDP-12 first appeared in 1969Oct 01 23:31
cubexyzused to about 1972Oct 01 23:31
cubexyzearly 1980s it would have been very difficult to get a computer in the home that had MMUOct 01 23:32
cubexyzthat's just the way it wasOct 01 23:32
msb_The apps and libraries I wrote in C fitted ok in 640K.Oct 01 23:32
cubexyzwhat I am saying is PDP-11's running Unix were better than msdosOct 01 23:33
msb_sureOct 01 23:33
msb_How much did they cost, including Unix?Oct 01 23:33
msb_For a non-institutional user.Oct 01 23:34
cubexyzthat's a bit tricky to answerOct 01 23:36
cubexyzfor PDP-11/20 I know it was $60KOct 01 23:36
cubexyzbut the price went down over timeOct 01 23:36
cubexyzPDP-7 in 1965 was $72KOct 01 23:36
cubexyzDEC LINC-8 was $46K in 1966Oct 01 23:37
msb_My PC, hard drive, display , graphic card, came in at about $6K.Oct 01 23:37
cubexyzPDP-8's were the cheapest for a while... $18KOct 01 23:37
msb_Including C compilerOct 01 23:37
msb_8's were really awful to program.Oct 01 23:37
cubexyzit's real mode that really bugged meOct 01 23:37
cubexyz8086 limitationOct 01 23:38
cubexyzwith Xenix 286 the memory limits weren't as badOct 01 23:38
cubexyzright, I can image the PDP-8 was very also very limitingOct 01 23:38
msb_much worse than 8088Oct 01 23:39
cubexyzmaximum 64k?Oct 01 23:39
msb_640K.Oct 01 23:39
cubexyzno, I mean the PDP-8Oct 01 23:40
msb_IIRC, except for a couple of instructions it was limited to a 256Byte page.Oct 01 23:40
msb_like a 6502Oct 01 23:41
msb_I really wanted a CoCo, with a 6809, designed like a PDP-11, excellent instruction set and memory reach.  But never got one.Oct 01 23:42

cubexyzbut look at Intel nowOct 01 23:45
cubexyznot really that desirableOct 01 23:45
msb_I got a 386 and used it with a very good multitasking and memory extension system from Borland (IIRC).  Wrote a huge app on a contract -- real-time graphics with a software feedback loop for speed regulation, and my own display-list system, which included some conditionals.Oct 01 23:47
cubexyzok... what I ended up doing back in the day was use XMS under msdosOct 01 23:47
cubexyzBUT... I also wrote the same program for the amigaOct 01 23:47
cubexyzthe amiga version was much simpler and cleaner Oct 01 23:48
msb_No doubt!Oct 01 23:48
msb_We had limitations then and worked around them.  We have limitations now.Oct 01 23:48
msb_When we reach the point where we can say, "Computer!" and it says, "Working", it will be a lot less fun.  Thinking is fun!Oct 01 23:50
MinceRwe're not guaranteed to reach that pointOct 01 23:51
cubexyzok... but the whole IBM PC architecture was very limitingOct 01 23:51
MinceRthough if we did, it will probably mean that finally we have an AI that can outlast humanityOct 01 23:51
msb_MinceR: And might choose to.Oct 01 23:51
cubexyzThe 8086 was an ill-conceived attempt to provide an address space larger 64K bytes without actually incurring the costs of a larger architecture. The 8086 is basically a 16/16 architecture. It has a 16-bit program counter, a 16-bit ALU, four 16-bit general purpose registers, and some 16-bit index registers.Oct 01 23:52
msb_But now 86's have multiple cores with multiple pipelines, instruction prediction and caching, and clock rates higher than radar.  We program them in C with good optimizing compilers.  Life is good!Oct 01 23:55
msb_As soon as Devuan comes out.  Oct 01 23:55
cubexyzexcept we went from "BIOS source here you go" to "sign an NDA and give us $20K"Oct 01 23:58
MinceRand soon we'll go to "you get to run osx if you buy your computer from apple or windows if you buy it from anyone else"Oct 01 23:59
msb_When it's time to build my new computer, if I can't get a Tyan mobo with libreboot, I'll probably get a sabretooth and kill UEFI/secure-boot on it.  It can flash the BIOS from a USB stick without a CPU, so I'll have that ready, and make good backups in case the govt bricks my computer.  Hell, they could just come and shoot me if they want to.Oct 01 23:59
cubexyzwell I assume you saw the NSA ANT CatalogOct 02 00:00
cubexyzI've been working on the BIOS problem for 5 years nowOct 02 00:01
msb_Yep.  Thanks!Oct 02 00:01
cubexyzI have a plan about the BIOS situationOct 02 00:01
cubexyzthere's two different approachesOct 02 00:01
msb_MinceR: I think all ASUS mobos have the option of turning off UEFI-secureboot and running any OS you want.Oct 02 00:02
cubexyzthree actuallyOct 02 00:02
MinceRmsb_: for now.Oct 02 00:02
cubexyzfirst I want everyone to remember that Raspberry PI has proprietary firmwareOct 02 00:02
MinceRmsb_: last time, m$ was forced by pr backlash to mandate Restricted Boot to be possible to be disabled on x86Oct 02 00:02
cubexyzok option 1) buy a chromebookOct 02 00:02
MinceRthey already had the hw locked down on armOct 02 00:03
MinceRthis time, that restriction is goneOct 02 00:03
cubexyzoption 2) pay minifree for a X60 laptop with librebootOct 02 00:03
MinceRso expect to see uefi appliances bearing a vista10 sticker that won't boot anything elseOct 02 00:03
cubexyzoption 3) use the leaked AMI source and find a motherboard that works with itOct 02 00:03
MinceRchromebooks, x60s and x200s are weakOct 02 00:03
cubexyzour options for BIOS source code are limitedOct 02 00:04
cubexyzthe hardware gatekeepers are stacked against usOct 02 00:06
MinceRall the fascists are stacked against usOct 02 00:06
msb_I don't think MS could get away with insisting that UEFI/SB not be user controllable on any mobo.Oct 02 00:06
MinceRm$ and crApple made closed platforms and drm hip and coolOct 02 00:06
MinceRmainstream media, dumbFuckBook and m$ destroyed expectations of privacyOct 02 00:07
MinceRmsb_: they canOct 02 00:07
MinceRm$ and crApple could get away with closing the market to competing OS-esOct 02 00:07
MinceReven though the USA and the EU pretends they have antitrust regulations, and regulations against monopoly abuseOct 02 00:07
msb_MinceR: We've been fighting fascists for a century.  We'll go on fighting them.  And with the Net, people have much better communications for organizing and fighting fascists.Oct 02 00:08
MinceRwe willOct 02 00:08
MinceRbut we're losingOct 02 00:08
MinceRyeah, the net is being killed tooOct 02 00:08

MinceRmany others are followingOct 02 00:08
MinceRrussia is also employing internet censorshipOct 02 00:08
MinceRnow the UN is plotting for global internet censorshipOct 02 00:08
MinceRand we have fascist megacorporations trying to destroy net neutralityOct 02 00:08
MinceRpeople who have lived through fascist oppression in dictatorship seemed to have forgotten their sufferingOct 02 00:09
msb_MinceR: You always look at the absolute worst possibilities.  That's a limitation of your mind, which you might overcome if you read that CBT pamphlet.  You ignore the infinite possibilities of human creativity.Oct 02 00:10
MinceRi'm well aware of the possibilitiesOct 02 00:10
MinceRbut i can see that the majority is instead marching to put their hands in manacles willingly and happilyOct 02 00:10
msb_If you watch RT you'll see people protesting every day in many different nations about various issues.Oct 02 00:11
MinceRand if you watch RT you'll see blatant advertising of a fascist dictatorshipOct 02 00:12
MinceRyou'll also see putin's stereotypical fascist posturingOct 02 00:12
msb_Actually, you don't.  But even if you did, that doesn';t change what I said, which refutes your idea of "marching to put their hands in manacles willingly".Oct 02 00:13
MinceRactually, the fact that you keep promoting RT and putin shows that even you put your hands in manacles willinglyOct 02 00:14

cubexyzSatellite TV is heavily DRMedOct 02 00:15

MinceReven our display connector standards tend to be laden with DRMOct 02 00:15
MinceReven the formerly open web supports DRM nowOct 02 00:16
cubexyzDRM is usually defeated thoughOct 02 00:17
MinceRyes, as long as we have general-purpose computers and audio and video recording devicesOct 02 00:18
msb_MinceR: You're now stuck in your paranoid depressive delusions.  I won't argue with you anymore.  Read the CBT booklet.  Maybe you can help yourself.Oct 02 00:18
MinceRthe former is being taken away from usOct 02 00:18
MinceRand the latter are slowly being replaced by computer-based devices that are increasingly subject to centralized controlOct 02 00:18
MinceRconsumer idiots love their hypePhones and hypePads, with their closed platforms and backdoorsOct 02 00:18
MinceRi remember seeing crApple patenting means to shut down their devices' recording capabilities remotely so they can't be used to record the abuses of governmentsOct 02 00:19
MinceRthere's no outrageOct 02 00:19
MinceRthese fascists are worshipped as godsOct 02 00:19
msb_To claim that when we now have dozens of different Linux SBCs for less that $50 is the height of nuttiness!Oct 02 00:19
MinceRyeah, i wonder if we'll be allowed to keep our SBCsOct 02 00:20
msb_China can always make more!Oct 02 00:20

MinceRand there are fascists that are seemingly independent of him, tooOct 02 00:23
MinceRbeing rude doesn't make putin any less of a fascistOct 02 00:23

msb_You keep changing the subject to avoid the refutation of your nutty claims:  "<MinceR> with putin, you'll rot in a gulag if you stand up against him"Oct 02 00:30
MinceRif you think that's nutty, read up on what putler did to his political enemiesOct 02 00:31
MinceRand what he did to ukrainiansOct 02 00:31
MinceRand read up on the organization he was a member of, and what sort of regime that he served thereOct 02 00:32
MinceRof course you won't understand itOct 02 00:32

msb_MinceR: You have never come up with anything broadcast on RT that you have proved is untrue.  You've called it "Putin propaganda" constantly, but it doesn't matter if it's information that Putin wants people to know AS LONG AS IT'S TRUE.Oct 02 03:51
msb_MinceR: And this is an extremely vicious lie:  "<MinceR> because if someone calls themselves "socialist", you immediately give them carte blanche to do whatever crimes against humanity they feel like doing"  I have never given anyone carte blanche to commit crimes against humanity, and you can't quote me saying it because I never have.Oct 02 03:53
MinceRyou have promoted the actions of putin, stalin, kadhafi, etc.Oct 02 03:54
msb_I have promoted only CERTAIN actions of those people -- none that were crimes against humanity.Oct 02 03:55
MinceRnone that you recognize as crimes against humanity, that isOct 02 03:56
MinceRalso, you seem to fail to recognize that people you condemn to be ruled by dictators you favor will not only be subject of the dictators' actions that you cherry-pickOct 02 03:57
msb_Although I am not familiar with Gaddafi having done anything wrong,Oct 02 03:57
MinceRthey will be affected by any actions the dictators choose to affect them withOct 02 03:57
MinceRthere's nothing wrong with running a dictatorship, right?Oct 02 03:57
msb_Of course there is.Oct 02 03:58
MinceRand yet you spare no day to advertise dictatorships hereOct 02 03:58
MinceRand no day goes by that you do not advocate that more territories to be annexed to dictatorships, and more people to be subjected to their ruleOct 02 03:58
MinceRbut apparently never yourselfOct 02 03:58
msb_As I said very explicitly, the only territories that should be annexed by Russia are those whose people overwhelmingly wish to be.  No one else.Oct 02 03:59
MinceRbut as a standard for such, you accept an unconstitutional, fraudulent charade of a "referendum" at gunpoint, with no international observers and no accountabilityOct 02 04:00
msb_Everything else you've said just now are vague accusations without facts.Oct 02 04:00

MinceRyou also make a big drama if someone dares say that an authoritarian regime is fascistOct 02 04:01
MinceRapparently you love authoritarianismOct 02 04:01
MinceRyou haven't explained why you love authoritarianism so much, thoughOct 02 04:01
MinceRor why you want _other_ people to be subjected to it, but not yourselfOct 02 04:01
msb_I love the proper use of words, because that enables us to think clearly in concepts.  Authoritarianism and Fascism, while both bad, are not the same thing.Oct 02 04:02
MinceRyour thinking is very far from clearOct 02 04:02
msb_And I don't want anyone subjected to either of them.Oct 02 04:02
MinceRand yet you campaign for exactly thatOct 02 04:02
msb_NeverOct 02 04:03
MinceRso you do things that are opposite to your intentsOct 02 04:03
msb_NopeOct 02 04:03
MinceRapparently you've been programmed to make things worse for yourselfOct 02 04:03
MinceRapparently none of the things you keep linking that allegedly help against such programming actually helpedOct 02 04:03
msb_I do critical thinking, and tell the truth as accurately as I know it.Oct 02 04:03
MinceRno, you don'tOct 02 04:04
msb_Did you read the CBT pamphlet?Oct 02 04:04
MinceRyou believe all the nonsense you find anywhere and call it "critical thinking"Oct 02 04:04

MinceRi'm not the one campaigning for subjecting as many people as possible to the rule of certain fascist dictatorshipsOct 02 04:06
msb_Albert Ellis's book helped me a lot when I was young.Oct 02 04:06
MinceRnot enough, apparentlyOct 02 04:06
msb_I'll say it again, for the third time: the only people who should be part of the Russian Federation are people who want to be.Oct 02 04:07
MinceRbut you don't really care if they want to beOct 02 04:08
msb_If I didn't care, I wouldn't say it.Oct 02 04:08
MinceRif you did, you would have researched about the guarantees for that alleged "referendum"'s correct conductionOct 02 04:08
MinceRinstead of just parroting the lies of the government that was its organizer and beneficiaryOct 02 04:08
msb_You have never given evidence that guns were held on people while they were secretly voting.Oct 02 04:08
MinceRwe've gone over it at least twice, and it's pointless to try againOct 02 04:09
MinceRyou obviously have no idea how democracy worksOct 02 04:09
MinceRi bet you also fall for the charades the ussr and its puppet states engaged in to pretend they were democraticOct 02 04:09
msb_Again, I ask you to prove your claim, and you respond with personal insults instead.Oct 02 04:09
MinceRlike "elections" where the Party decided who may or may not runOct 02 04:10
MinceRi have proven it and you ignored itOct 02 04:10
MinceRyou keep trying to waste everybody's timeOct 02 04:10
MinceRi wonder what putler hopes to gain from thatOct 02 04:10
msb_And now you are changing the subject, because you can't give evidence.Oct 02 04:10
msb_One of the US propaganda sites you cited even said that Putin conducted a  private opinion poll in Crimea before the referendum was held, and it was overwhelmingly for annexation,Oct 02 04:11
MinceRagain, who said the poll was for annexation, and with what sampleOct 02 04:12
MinceRyou confuse informal polls with referendaOct 02 04:12
MinceRjust like fideszOct 02 04:12
MinceRyou lack the most basic training in the foundations of modern democracyOct 02 04:12
msb_The US propaganda page that you linked to.Oct 02 04:12
MinceRif it's a "us propaganda page", at most it can report what others saidOct 02 04:12
MinceRor do you think the US had observers in putler's informal poll?Oct 02 04:13
msb_Again, I ask you to prove your claim, and you respond with personal insults instead.Oct 02 04:13
MinceRsounds like something russia would love to report on...Oct 02 04:13
MinceRunless of course they turn up something uncomfortable to russiaOct 02 04:13
msb_Prove that the referendum was coerced by men with guns in the polling booths.Oct 02 04:13

msb_Prove that the referendum was coerced by men with guns in the polling booths.Oct 02 04:14
MinceReven if i paste evidence, you'll dismiss it as us propagandaOct 02 04:15
msb_And prove that RT has said something untrue.Oct 02 04:15
MinceRyour circular reasoning serves only wasting everybody's timeOct 02 04:16
msb_Do it and we'll see.Oct 02 04:16
msb_Lame excuse for being unable to cite any proof.Oct 02 04:16
MinceRdo you deny that crimea was under military occupation when the "poll" took place?Oct 02 04:17
MinceRseriously?Oct 02 04:17
msb_No I don't,Oct 02 04:17
MinceRthen what the hell are you talking about?Oct 02 04:17
MinceRyou not only do not understand democracy, you don't even understand how pressuring and threatening people works?Oct 02 04:18
msb_But I deny that the occupation would affect the result of a _secret_ ballot, because people could still vote as they pleased, because no one would know how they voted.Oct 02 04:18
MinceRthe only reason no one would know how they voted is that the counts are entirely faked by the russians.Oct 02 04:18
msb_More personal attacks.Oct 02 04:18
MinceRjust like in russia.Oct 02 04:18
msb_And how do you know that?Oct 02 04:19
MinceRi've heard enough about how countries like russia conduct their business.Oct 02 04:19
MinceRthey used to be pretty flippant about it too.Oct 02 04:19
msb_You seem to be unable to distinguish your paranoid fantasies from facts. Oct 02 04:19
MinceR"It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything." -- StalinOct 02 04:20
MinceRis this a paranoid fantasy too?Oct 02 04:20
msb_You think that your paranoid fantasies _are_ facts.Oct 02 04:20
MinceRno, that's youOct 02 04:20
msb_Stalin is long dead.Oct 02 04:20
MinceRhis cause isn't, thoughOct 02 04:20
msb_What cause is that?Oct 02 04:20
MinceRthat of brutally oppressing peopleOct 02 04:21
MinceRand using them as slaves to the stateOct 02 04:21
msb_xrevan86 has not reported seeing any brutal oppression in Russia.Oct 02 04:21
MinceRhas anyone asked him?Oct 02 04:21
msb_I have.Oct 02 04:21
MinceRwhat did he say?Oct 02 04:21
msb_He hasn't.Oct 02 04:22
msb_And he works for a living.  He's not a slave.Oct 02 04:22
MinceRand from silence you deduce that everything is a-ok thereOct 02 04:22
MinceRyou believe the usa to be worse than russia, the latter you believe to be a well-working democracyOct 02 04:22
MinceRthat you supportOct 02 04:22
MinceRso why don't you move there?Oct 02 04:22
msb_No, Putin is somewhat authoritarian, but isn't doing terrible harm by it.Oct 02 04:23

MinceRyou merely pretend it is and imply it isOct 02 04:23
msb_Never.Oct 02 04:24
MinceRapparently you believe if you don't explicitly voice your thoughts, they can't be pointed out and criticized?Oct 02 04:24
msb_If I don't voice my thoughts, there's no way for you to know what they are.Oct 02 04:25
MinceRyeah, it isn't like something called "logic" existsOct 02 04:25
msb_But I do voice them, explicitly.Oct 02 04:25
MinceRat least in the mind of a putin supporter, anywayOct 02 04:25

msb_But you keep ignoring that and lying about me.Oct 02 04:26
MinceRyou're either lying about your own motives or have failed to think anything through.Oct 02 04:26
msb_The Crimeans chose to be under Russian rule rather than Nazi rule.Oct 02 04:26
MinceRno, they did not choose to be under russian ruleOct 02 04:27
MinceRand ukrainian rule isn't as nazi as russian rule is.Oct 02 04:27

MinceRthe refugees the russian government reportedOct 02 04:27
MinceRand represented with actorsOct 02 04:27
MinceRbut you believe that too because you love authoritarianism so muchOct 02 04:27
msb_The Ukrainian government was placed in power by violence by the Nazi Right-Sector and Svoboda armies.  And its policies are partly dictated by them.Oct 02 04:28
MinceRin very small partOct 02 04:28

MinceR"National Socialism (German: Nationalsozialismus), more commonly known as Nazism (/ˈnaːtsɪzᵊm/), is the ideology and practice associated with the 20th-century German Nazi Party and Nazi state as well as other far-right groups. Usually characterized as a form of fascism that incorporates scientific racism and anti-Semitism"Oct 02 04:37
MinceRhe has built and is maintaining a centralized state with no independent branches of power.Oct 02 04:37
msb_Yes, like Svoboda and Right-Sector.Oct 02 04:37
MinceRhe has centralized control over its economyOct 02 04:37
MinceRhe's strongly authoritarian, brutally suppressing freedom of speechOct 02 04:37
msb_He just had to ask the Duma for permission to send requested weapons and supplies to Syria.Oct 02 04:38
MinceRhe's conspiring with the russian orthodox churchOct 02 04:38
MinceRhe's also a nationalistOct 02 04:38
MinceRin summary, he's a fascist and a national socialist.Oct 02 04:38
msb_In what way?  Attending Kyril's ceremony?Oct 02 04:38
MinceRfor example, by persecuting Pussy Riot for offending that cultOct 02 04:39
MinceRin exchange kirill keeps advertising putin's reignOct 02 04:39
msb_He's not a socialist.  He doesn't practice or advocate socialism, except for some state ownership of industries that the Russia  people created until Yeltsin gave them away.Oct 02 04:39
MinceRin all practical implementations of socialism, "socialism" means oppression, dictatorship and centralized control of the economy.Oct 02 04:40
MinceRthis also covers "national socialism", of courseOct 02 04:40
msb_Yes.  Persecuting Pussy Riot was wrong.  Oct 02 04:40
MinceRrussians merely pretended they were not nationalist or imperialistOct 02 04:40
MinceRin part by pretending they were "councils", not russiansOct 02 04:41
MinceRonly shallow people don't see through such deceit.Oct 02 04:41
MinceRbut apparently you only care about a few people prancing about with nazi symbolsOct 02 04:41

msb_Marx totally opposed capitalism.Oct 02 04:43
MinceRyeah, they invented something and then opposed itOct 02 04:43
MinceRwhat a hero.Oct 02 04:43
MinceRi wonder what solace that gives to the millions of ukrainians murdered in his name.Oct 02 04:44
msb_You claim that Marx invented capitalism???Oct 02 04:44
MinceRafaik he invented and defined the termOct 02 04:44
MinceRaccording to his own bullshit ideologyOct 02 04:44
MinceRand unfortunately people took it up.Oct 02 04:44
msb_He wrote a book called Capital.  He didn't invent it.Oct 02 04:44

msb_The term capitalist, meaning an owner of capital, appears earlier than the term capitalism. It dates back to the mid-17th century. Oct 02 04:50

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaOct 02 04:50
MinceRso, is being an owner of capital the most important defining feature of market economy?Oct 02 04:51
MinceRi don't think it is.Oct 02 04:51
MinceRespecially when compared to command economy, which you apparently love so much.Oct 02 04:51
msb_MinceR: STOP THE PERSONAL ATTACKS!Oct 02 04:52
MinceR(then again, you didn't have to live in a country that suffered under command economy, and still hasn't recovered from it to this day)Oct 02 04:52
MinceRreferring to someone's message is now a personal attack?Oct 02 04:52
MinceRin that case, it is impossible to have a discussion.Oct 02 04:52
msb_Totally distorting and lying about a person's message is a personal attack, and that's what you do.Oct 02 04:53
MinceRno, turning the text of the message into an interpretation of it is not a personal attack, it's text comprehensionOct 02 04:53

msb_Capital is the result of productive human action not immediately consumed but directly employed in the pursuit of additional goods. Adam Smith defines capital as "That part of a man's stock which he expects to afford him revenue is called his capital."Oct 02 04:55
MinceRare the means of production "capital"?Oct 02 04:55
msb_yesOct 02 04:55
MinceRis your goal to make the means of production available to all workers?Oct 02 04:56
msb_but so are service institutions like hospitalsOct 02 04:56
MinceRis your goal to make the means of production available to all workers?Oct 02 04:56
msb_My goal is to make the means of production owned by all workersOct 02 04:57
MinceR055041 < msb_> The term capitalist, meaning an owner of capital, appears earlier than the term capitalism. It dates back to the mid-17th century. Oct 02 04:57
MinceRtherefore you want all workers to be capitalistsOct 02 04:57
MinceRyet here you are, attacking this phantasm you call "capitalism"Oct 02 04:57
MinceRit is quite baffling.Oct 02 04:57
msb_The system in which the MOP are owned by all workers is called socialism.Oct 02 04:58
MinceRand yet in the systems that were actually implemented and called "socialism" or "national socialism", the workers didn't own anythingOct 02 04:58
msb_They did/do in Venezula, Cuba, Vietnam, Nicaragua, Mondragon, and used to in Libya.Oct 02 05:00
MinceRno, the state did.Oct 02 05:00
MinceRwhich was controlled by a dictator.Oct 02 05:00
msb_In those nations, workers had/have a lot of control over industries and the state.Oct 02 05:00
msb_That's your distorted fantasy.Oct 02 05:00
MinceRis that why you can't buy toilet paper in venezuela?Oct 02 05:00

MinceRyou don't know, but you're "sure"Oct 02 05:01
MinceRthat's niceOct 02 05:01
MinceRand that that's all the assurance you need to promote people being subjected to a dictatorship is even nicerOct 02 05:02
msb_I'm sure venezuelans are wiping their asses with something.  And I did not give the eastern bloc as examples of socialism.  That's YOUR crazed obsession.Oct 02 05:02
MinceR"i don't know, so let's just put the manacles on their feet already."Oct 02 05:02

msb_You are following your own insane fantasies.Oct 02 05:03
MinceRso history and economics that are uncomfortable to msb_ are mere fantasiesOct 02 05:03
msb_You keep attributing to me things I neither said nor think.Oct 02 05:04
MinceRto be replaced by the invented reality of marx, lenin and stalinOct 02 05:04
MinceRand of course putinOct 02 05:04
MinceRrushing head-on against reality and demanding that it change to fit one's wishes seems to be a common theme in today's societyOct 02 05:04
MinceRbut i'm sure it will work out just fine in the battle of overpopulation vs. the limits of the resources available to humanity on earthOct 02 05:05
msb_Ok.  You're obviously going to go on with these lies about me indefinitely.  Read the CBT pamphlet.  Try to understand your erroneous thinking and obsessive emotions.  I'm going to have dinner.Oct 02 05:05
MinceRor you could try learning about the stuff you keep promoting hereOct 02 05:06
MinceRyou could read some of the articles i linkedOct 02 05:06
msb_I have read all of them.Oct 02 05:06
MinceRthen you could try re-reading without singing "LALALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU" while doing soOct 02 05:06
MinceRyou could think about how giving massive amounts of power over massive amounts of people to a few damaged individuals worked out for humanityOct 02 05:07
MinceRwhether it has ever led to anything other than disasterOct 02 05:07
MinceRyou could think about how democracy could possibly function, what are required for it to functionOct 02 05:08
MinceR(stuff like freedom of speech)Oct 02 05:08
cubexyzlsOct 02 05:08
MinceRyou could think about why the separation of church and state is vitalOct 02 05:08
MinceRand how fundamentalism ruins democracy and societyOct 02 05:09

amonobeaxnot obligation, ok, but who will invest into your company without data...Oct 02 12:08
amonobeaxthat's too dumb even for M$Oct 02 12:08
amonobeaxI heard it from a couple of tech sitesOct 02 12:09
msb_Did MS automatically without charge upgrade all copies of windows 8 to windows 10?Oct 02 12:09
amonobeaxI know Windows is auto downloading win10Oct 02 12:10
amonobeaxbut auto installing idkOct 02 12:10
msb_I thought I saw that somewhere.Oct 02 12:10
amonobeaxbut it's 1 step from it reallyOct 02 12:10
amonobeaxmaybe you're right thenOct 02 12:10
msb_If they include those automatic copies of w10, they can claim huge success even though nobody really wanted it.Oct 02 12:11
amonobeaxtrueOct 02 12:11
amonobeaxI'm curious about what are they going to do when they have a big chunk of the market share on win10Oct 02 12:12
msb_Anyhow, success for microsoft is injury to humanity.Oct 02 12:12
amonobeaxcause then they'll start closing the trapOct 02 12:12
msb_But sadly, the same is true for systemd.Oct 02 12:12
amonobeaxsry for my ignoranceOct 02 12:13
amonobeaxdon't even know what this isOct 02 12:13
schestowitzmicrosoft can count downloadsOct 02 12:13
schestowitzas in, how many PCs they 'threw' the blob atOct 02 12:13
schestowitzbut anyway, it all boils down to definitionsOct 02 12:13
schestowitzthat's how Microsoft always games the numbersOct 02 12:14
schestowitzlike claiming an enterprise eligible to 100 Vista 7 installs counts as "100 sales"Oct 02 12:14
schestowitzas they did at the timeOct 02 12:14
schestowitzthey try to sell people the illusion that everyone is movin gOct 02 12:14
schestowitzinvoking cattle effectOct 02 12:14
msb_It's a huge blob of software from Red Hat that violates Unix/Linux design/engineering principles, and which, despite being unnecessary, has been adopted by most major Linux distributions. Oct 02 12:14
schestowitzand then some people foolishly move/changeOct 02 12:14
schestowitzself-fulfilling prophecies.Oct 02 12:15
amonobeaxawww I heard about it I guess msb_ Oct 02 12:15
amonobeaxIf it's clearly harmful why distros are embracing it ?Oct 02 12:15
msb_The US govt is RedHat's biggest customer.  Systemd may in the future provide a backdoor for the US govt to kill all Linux computers that use it.Oct 02 12:16
amonobeaxschestowitz: what is really bothering me right now is the fact that M$ could be stealing opensource codeOct 02 12:16
schestowitzthe distro they made?Oct 02 12:16
amonobeaxand we can't do shit cause they are close sourcedOct 02 12:16
msb_That's a big question.  We haven't been able to figure out the answer.Oct 02 12:16
schestowitzif they don't release, then gpl won't force them toOct 02 12:16
schestowitzunlike agplOct 02 12:17
schestowitzif only used internally for azureOct 02 12:17
schestowitzbut microsoft is so secretiveOct 02 12:17
schestowitzthat we don't know what code is used, when, how...Oct 02 12:17
schestowitzMicrosoft has a history of GPL violationsOct 02 12:17

schestowitzI forgot the company's nameOct 02 12:18
schestowitzI can look it up, wrote a lot about it at the timeOct 02 12:18
amonobeaxAgain msb_, if it's clear that it's harmful why the adoption ?Oct 02 12:18
amonobeaxare distro dev's crazy?Oct 02 12:19

*XRevan86 (~XRevan86@meowr.ru) has left #techrightsOct 02 12:20
amonobeaxI'll read more about itOct 02 12:20
amonobeaxI guess I saw a video in which Linus himself say systemd was okOct 02 12:21
amonobeaxso I really don't know what to thinkOct 02 12:21
msb_All the evil that's been going on in the world.  The US govt destr0ying half a dozen nations and murdering millions.  There's no limit to what it may be doing secretly.Oct 02 12:21
msb_Linus' concern is only the kernel, and systemd is outside the kernel.Oct 02 12:22
amonobeaxstill this was his opinion on the matterOct 02 12:22
amonobeaxI guess it was on a Debian thingyOct 02 12:22
msb_Still you would think that he and Richard Stallman would have spoken out against it.  But they haven't.Oct 02 12:23
msb_People are working on a Debian variant called Devuan without systemd, but with up-to-date application and system software.Oct 02 12:24
msb_It's our best hope.Oct 02 12:24
amonobeaxI seeOct 02 12:24
amonobeaxisn't systemd switchable in most distros?Oct 02 12:25
msb_No.  Not in any.Oct 02 12:25
msb_The initialization setup with and without it are very different.Oct 02 12:26
schestowitzpeople are afraid of criticising systemd nowOct 02 12:26
schestowitzit's stigmatisied with homophobia and other things nowOct 02 12:26
amonobeaxwhatOct 02 12:27
schestowitzeven with mono there was no such stigmaOct 02 12:27
amonobeaxhomophobia, whyOct 02 12:27
schestowitzthe only stigma was "anti-Microsoft"Oct 02 12:27
schestowitzbecause LP is a homosexualOct 02 12:27
amonobeaxomg...Oct 02 12:27
schestowitzand some people trolled him over systemd in an abusive, personal fashionOct 02 12:27
msb_First time I've heard that!Oct 02 12:27
amonobeaxI'm no tech guyOct 02 12:28
schestowitzso if you don't like systemd -> you hate LP -> you're harassing homosexualsOct 02 12:28
amonobeaxso swtching defaults is really painful for meOct 02 12:28
amonobeaxI'll keep track on things thoOct 02 12:28

msb_MinceR: I want to ask you a question.  You are constantly posting about how you think Putin is going to enslave and blow up the whole world.  But the actual _actions_ of the US since 2001 of destr0ying four nations by bombing and strafing, murdering millions of people, and arming tens of thousands of psychopath jihadis, creating ISIL -- that doesn't seem to bother you at all.  Why is that?Oct 02 16:03
MinceRyou have yet to prove that the US is responsible for these things. they've done plenty of real evil that's worth discussing hereOct 02 16:03
MinceRand is more relevant to this channelOct 02 16:04
MinceRinstead you focus on conspiracy theories and assume that since the US is evil and putin is opposed to it, he must be goodOct 02 16:04
MinceR(which does not follow)Oct 02 16:04
msb_MinceR: You ignored my question.  You constantly post here claims about what Putin will do in the future.  So you think that's relevant.  Are  you now saying that you don't believe that the US has invaded and destr0yed Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and Syria?Oct 02 16:07
MinceRi don't know to what extent is the destruction of those countries the US's influenceOct 02 16:08
MinceRoften they've taken down local dictatorships in the hope that it would be replaced with something better, but it wasn'tOct 02 16:08
MinceRand they might well have had evil intentions behind itOct 02 16:09
MinceRbut i mostly see speculation from youOct 02 16:09

msb_This is amazing: " <MinceR> i don't know to what extent is the destruction of those countries the US's influence"  Influence???  Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya were all destr0yed by US/NATO weapons and soldiers -- nothing else.  Most of Syria has been destr0yed by US bombing and tens of thousands of US-armed jihadis.   You don't know that???Oct 02 16:14
MinceRafaik kadhafi and the ISIL are not the USOct 02 16:14
MinceRand afaik the successor regimes were also not the USOct 02 16:14
msb_Gaddafi didn't harm Libya.  He gave the people the highest standard of living of any nation in Africa.  Reagan armed and financed the Mujahideen, which became Al-Qaeda, which became ISIL.  ISIL is armed with US weapons from the jihadis that the US trained as its proxies, and who defected to ISIL.Oct 02 16:18
msb_The successor regimes controlled those nations after the US soldiers and weapons bombed and destr0yed their infrastructure and murdered millions of their people.Oct 02 16:20
MinceRso if the USA fucks up and gives weapons to someone, that someone becomes part of the USA? or a representative of the USA?Oct 02 16:20
MinceRwill they take orders from the USA? will they adopt the culture of the USA?Oct 02 16:21
msb_It does if the US intentionally does that over and over again.Oct 02 16:21
MinceRalso, you keep quoting the russian government's excuses for what they do. has it ever occurred to you that the us government also has excuses for what they do?Oct 02 16:22
msb_But you are ignoring the initial US attacks that wrecked those countries and killed their people.  Why are you ignoring that?Oct 02 16:22
MinceRi'm not ignoring itOct 02 16:22
MinceRi was trying to point out the official reasons for them, which may or may not have been entirely honestOct 02 16:23
MinceRalso, libya was originally wrecked by kadhafi, afaikOct 02 16:23
MinceRmany other middle eastern countries were wrecked by their own local dictatorsOct 02 16:23
MinceRinterestingly when the russian government claims they're "protecting ethnic russians" when they invade ukraine or estonia, you believe that claim without any thoughtOct 02 16:24
msb_This video tells what Gaddafi did in Libya, and shows him riding through Tripoli in an open car with the  people cheering him.  Please download and watch it.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJURNC0e6EkOct 02 16:25

MinceRbut if it doesn't agree with one's preconceptions, then it's CIA propaganda, therefore falseOct 02 16:26
msb_OK, I just wanted to see.  If you were a US agent, your answers would be exactly the same as the ones you've given.  You conceal your name, age, and e-mail address.  There are several possible explanations for your bizarre ideas and behavior.  I don't know which one is true.Oct 02 16:30
MinceRif you were a putinist troll army member, your answers would be exactly the same as the ones you've givenOct 02 16:31
MinceRand that also explains your bizarre obsession with conspiracy theories and total gullibilityOct 02 16:31
msb_But you parrot all US lying propaganda, and you post articles from sites like Radio Free Europe, which is totally run by the US govt.Oct 02 16:31
MinceRyou parrot all russian lying propaganda, and you post articles from sites like RT, which is totally run by the russian governmentOct 02 16:32
MinceRand you do not only support putin's russia, you also support the ussrOct 02 16:33
MinceRwhile you claim to be opposing fascismOct 02 16:33
MinceRwhich is ludicrousOct 02 16:33
msb_The US govt claims that the 9/11 and chemtrail research are mere "conspiracy theories", which is what you say.  But you have yet to point out any error in the information I've give of that research.Oct 02 16:33
MinceRi have pointed out severalOct 02 16:34
MinceRwhich you then ignored, of courseOct 02 16:34
msb_And you have yet to point out any erroneous information broadcast by RT.Oct 02 16:34
MinceRsee aboveOct 02 16:34
MinceRyou're awfully repetitive and circularOct 02 16:34
MinceRhave you read about what contrails are and how they work?Oct 02 16:35
MinceRhave you heard of occam's razor?Oct 02 16:35
msb_Of course.  Chemtrails are far more persistent, and material that settles from them contains aluminum and barium.  Chemtrails cannot possibly be contrails.Oct 02 16:36
*vallor has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)Oct 02 16:37
MinceRpersistence depends on atmospheric conditionsOct 02 16:37
MinceRand i doubt you've flied there and sampled the contrails for aluminium and bariumOct 02 16:38
msb_I guess you have not accessed the information on http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/ even though I've given the link several times.Oct 02 16:38
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.geoengineeringwatch.org | Geoengineering Watch | Exposing the climate engineering/geoengineering cover-upOct 02 16:38
MinceRpeople shoot a picture of contrails displaced by air currents on an air corridor and believe it's intentionally covering an area with chemicalsOct 02 16:39
msb_So unless I've done the analysis myself, you don't believe it.  Many people have analyzed the precipitates and found aluminum and barium.Oct 02 16:39
MinceRpeople see the appearance of a contrail change as the plane passes into different conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.) and decide they must have turned a valve on or offOct 02 16:39
MinceRwho analyzed them and how did they gain access to them?Oct 02 16:39
MinceRwhat have they compared them to?Oct 02 16:39
msb_You're getting this from a US propaganda site, aren't you?Oct 02 16:40
MinceRis there an answer to that question that would affect your thinking in any way?Oct 02 16:40
msb_They put out petri dishes, and analyzed the white stuff that fell into them.Oct 02 16:40
MinceRalso, i wonder if this is yet another case of confusing elements with chemical compounds that include themOct 02 16:40
MinceRwhere did the "white stuff" fall into the petri dishes?Oct 02 16:41
MinceRand where were the petri dishes? on the ground?Oct 02 16:41
msb_In lots of places underneath chemtrails.Oct 02 16:41
MinceRso they gathered whatever the wind blew into their petri dishesOct 02 16:41
MinceRand whatever was in the dishes from beforeOct 02 16:41
MinceRdidn't even care to check it against areas that were not under contrailsOct 02 16:41
MinceRand made up wild speculations from thatOct 02 16:42
MinceRhow very scientific.Oct 02 16:42
msb_Where are you getting these "explanations" from?Oct 02 16:42
MinceRcommon senseOct 02 16:42
msb_And the US govt "debunking" sites give exactly the same kind of BS.Oct 02 16:43
MinceRso, science is bullshit nowOct 02 16:44
MinceRbecause it gainsays what people who know nothing about contrails made upOct 02 16:44
MinceR(which is far more complicated than the truth)Oct 02 16:44
MinceRit's a familiar patternOct 02 16:44
MinceRmaking up overcomplicated bullshit about stuff people don't understand, and then dismissing anything that falsifies themOct 02 16:44
MinceRit's usually called religionOct 02 16:45
msb_Well, MinceR, you've certainly let it all hang out in this conversation.  It's a keeper!Oct 02 16:46
MinceRas usual, conversing with you is a waste of timeOct 02 16:46
msb_It's like talking to someone who, from psychosis or post-hypnotic suggestion, believes they're Napoleon, and trying to convince them that they're not.  They ignore the questions, claim they've already answered them, refuse to access data proving they're not Napoleon, give BS answers that they insist answer the questions but don't.  Oct 02 16:55

msb_The refugee problem is at last drawing the world's attention to the enormous death and destruction resulting from US/UK/NATO/EU attacks on Iraq Afghanistan Libya Syria -- nations that few people elsewhere evidently thought about before the flood of millions of refugees whose home nations were ruined by the US.  And some US document has been revealed from years ago saying that this was the intention.Sep 28 14:04
msb_The US has justified all those attacks and mass murders on the basis of the 9/11 attacks.  And that's why it's so important that research has shown that the WTC was blown up by explosives which only the US government could have planted there. http://cosmicpenguin.com/#911 Sep 28 14:08

DaemonFCI'm on my Chromebook. My desktop computer is somewhere in this mess. We're living in John's efficiency apartment for a few days while they get a much bigger one ready.Sep 30 12:50
DaemonFCMinceR: I took the two kittens we had left to the SPCA to get their shots and deworming and to get them spayed. They'll be up for adoption soon.Sep 30 12:51
DaemonFCI gave them temporary names on the forms so that I could see where they end up going for adoption.Sep 30 12:51
DaemonFCI named them Rose and River. :)Sep 30 12:52
MinceR:)Sep 30 12:52
DaemonFCJabba (my cat) and Leeloo (John's cat. He let me name her a few months ago.) are not getting along very well.Sep 30 12:53
DaemonFCWe've been alternating them between the main living area and the walk-in closet and bathroom area.Sep 30 12:53
DaemonFCEvery time they see each other they hiss and growl.Sep 30 12:53
DaemonFCI guess that'll go on for a while until they get used to the fact that they're both here now.Sep 30 12:53
DaemonFCThe lady at the SPCA said that they wouldn't hurt each other, but I've been too afraid to just let them have it out.Sep 30 12:54
schestowitzHi DaemonFCSep 30 12:54
DaemonFCWhen we get the bigger apartment, I'll let them hiss and growl and run away from each other like she said they would.Sep 30 12:54

schestowitzSo you're not "pro lifer"Sep 30 12:56
DaemonFCDave. They're still not divorced yet.Sep 30 12:56
schestowitzOr maybe that applies not to non-human animals in the US...Sep 30 12:56
DaemonFCschestowitz: She was pregnant when we found her.Sep 30 12:57
schestowitz"baby killer!"Sep 30 12:57
DaemonFCSo we took care of the five kittens she had. We found people to adopt three of them directly, but the last two went to the SPCA. They'll be up for adoption at Petsmart most likely.Sep 30 12:57
DaemonFCschestowitz: I don't think that there's anything wrong with getting a cat neutered or spayed so that it won't produce any more kittens.Sep 30 12:58
DaemonFCThere's too many roaming the streets as it is. They're not in any danger of going extinct.Sep 30 12:58
msb_DaemonFC: The two cats that don't like each other -- are their claws trimmed?Sep 30 12:58
DaemonFCJabba was declawed before I got him.Sep 30 12:59
DaemonFCWe're not getting Leeloo declawed.Sep 30 12:59
DaemonFCI read up on it, and I think it should be illegal to get a cat declawed,Sep 30 12:59
DaemonFCIt is in 37 countries, but not in the US, except for 8 cities.Sep 30 13:00
DaemonFCThe operation is dangerous and it can cause more problems for you and the cat than it solves.Sep 30 13:00
DaemonFCIt's better to get them a scratching post and encourage them to use that.Sep 30 13:00
DaemonFCI like cats, but they reproduce like crazy if you don't get that taken care of.Sep 30 13:02
DaemonFCA breeding pair of cats can result in 480,000 kittens in just 7 years.Sep 30 13:02
DaemonFCNature is harsh, so it encourages reproducing in huge numbers so that some will live on to have offspring themselves.Sep 30 13:03
msb_I said claws _trimmed_, not declawed.  Get a wire-stripper like this:  http://learning.hccs.edu/faculty/khansaa.almansor1/cett1321/wiring-2/wiring-1/wire-stripper/imageSep 30 13:03
DaemonFCIn nature, humans only live 35 or 40 years. That's why I crack up when people say they want to "go back to nature".Sep 30 13:03
MinceRreligion poisons everything >> http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/next-door-to-delhi-mob-kills-50-year-old-injures-son-over-rumours-they-ate-beef/Sep 30 13:04
DaemonFCModern living has doubled our life expectancy. I wonder how many people really want to give that up.Sep 30 13:04
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-indianexpress.com | Dadri: Mob kills man, injures son over ‘rumours’ that they ate beef | The Indian Express [ http://ur1.ca/nvvym ]Sep 30 13:04
msb_Adjust the screw so it can close completely.  Then press on the cat's toe so the claw emerges, and place the tip of the claw -- the clear part only, not containing blood vessels  -- in the triangular notches of the wirestripper and close it.  That cuts the claw from 4 sides so it doesn't split.Sep 30 13:05
msb_Repeat for all front and back claws.  Removing the sharp tip of the claw greatly decreases the amount of injury it can cause.Sep 30 13:07
msb_DaemonFC: some cats need wrapping in a towel and holding by another person to trim their claws.  Some don't mind, especially if you only do a few claws at a time.Sep 30 13:09
msb_Of course, only indoor-only  cats should have their claws trimmed.Sep 30 13:10
msb_DaemonFC: You can also have the vet grind off the very tips of the fangs of an indoor cat during neutering/spaying if it bites.Sep 30 13:12
msb_DaemonFC: Neither claw-trimming nor fang de-pointing detracts from the quality of life of an indoor-only cat in any way.  They can still climb scratching-posts, chew meat, etc.Sep 30 13:13
DaemonFCShe's a good cat.Sep 30 13:13
DaemonFCVery mild mannered.Sep 30 13:13
DaemonFCYeah, I had to have a tooth resurfaced once. It worked out okay. I'd imagine it's about the same for a cat.Sep 30 13:14
msb_Please spread the word on the wire-stripper.  All Radio Shacks have them for $5 or less, and they do a much better job than the claw trimmers from a pet store that only cut the claw from 2 sides instead of 4.Sep 30 13:16
msb_Those can painfully split the claw.Sep 30 13:16

msb_DaemonFC: Claw  trimming only has to be done about once a week.  It takes the cat that long to sharpen them up again on the scratching-post or carpet.Sep 30 13:22

cubexyzok, I can make some remarks on why the firmware situation is so poorSep 30 13:27
cubexyzfirst of all the BIOS writers, with the exception of Coreboot/Libreboot are using Microsoft programming tool to write the BIOSSep 30 13:29
cubexyzMicrosoft also added things to the PCI specSep 30 13:29
cubexyzthe trend almost from the very beginning of the IBM PC was to use Microsoft programming toolsSep 30 13:30
msb_What things, and does the MS assembler write bad code?Sep 30 13:30
cubexyzAward was using different Masm versions, so was Intel/IBMSep 30 13:31
cubexyzwell it's bad in that it's highly proprietary closed source codeSep 30 13:32
cubexyzalso some of the chips used in motherboards you have to sign an NDA to see the datasheetsSep 30 13:32
cubexyzand of course with secure boot/intel boot guard you couldn't even change the firmware if you wanted toSep 30 13:33
cubexyzstandard price to get the source code (and sign the NDA)?Sep 30 13:34
cubexyzat least $20KSep 30 13:34

cubexyzshort story: Intel is using consumer lock-in tacticsSep 30 13:43
cubexyzbasically you want at least a motherboard without secure boot/intel boot guardSep 30 13:45
cubexyzideally you want a motherboard with coreboot Sep 30 13:45
msb_Of course I'm not recommending that anyone use any ms product, but if someone uses masm, or even msc, it's silly to shun the resulting product.   I think it's also silly to take a two-thirds speed decrease on your computer in order to avoid closed-source BIOS (although it may be safer to us an AMD than an Intel CPU).Sep 30 13:45
cubexyzwell, I'm drawing a line hereSep 30 13:47
msb_Ideally, yes.  But since I can get a mobo in which I can turn off secure-boot/boot-guard/UEFI, and get 3 times the MIPS speed as the fastest cheap one with coreboot, I want the speed.Sep 30 13:47
cubexyzwe'll see if things get even worse in the futureSep 30 13:47
cubexyzmsb_, I'm getting closer to a solutionSep 30 13:48
msb_A fast solution?Sep 30 13:48
cubexyzTyan has quietly shipping some server motherboards with corebootSep 30 13:48

msb_Hoo-hah!  For  8-core AMD?Sep 30 13:49
msb_How pricey?Sep 30 13:49
cubexyzDon't know, but historically around $400 for server motherboardSep 30 13:50
msb_Are they ATX?Sep 30 13:50

cubexyzI think you have to explicitly ask Tyan for coreboot firmware, otherwise you don't get itSep 30 13:53
cubexyzgood questionSep 30 13:53
msb_How is Intel using consumer lock-in tactics?Sep 30 13:54
cubexyz"Artec, Tyan Technexion and MSI ship coreboot for _specific systems_ on request"Sep 30 13:54
cubexyzI hear you can't change the CPU on some motherboardsSep 30 13:55
cubexyzCPU is fused to the motherboardSep 30 13:55
MinceRi think i have at least 2 of thoseSep 30 13:55
MinceRVIA EPIA and some Shuttle Atom-based bare-bonesSep 30 13:56
cubexyzI'm contacting Tyan about this nowSep 30 13:57
msb_That doesn't lock the consumer into using an Intel CPU.  You can't use an AMD CPU on a mobo meant for Intel anyhow.  It just saves the cost of a ZIF socket.Sep 30 13:58
msb_Actually it might _cost_ Intel money, because with a socket, the user might buy another, faster Intel CPU.Sep 30 13:59
cubexyzcall it planned obsolescence thenSep 30 14:00
msb_cubexyz: Please ask Tyan if they have a user-type mobo (with audio, USB, etc) for an AMD FX-8350, with coreboot.Sep 30 14:02
cubexyzI will, but I can't get through their web portal at the moment :-/Sep 30 14:02
msb_Seems like the whole Net has slowed down the  past couple of weeks.Sep 30 14:04
cubexyzyou can get tyan motherboards with and without integrated audio Sep 30 14:07
cubexyzwith AMD Opteron 1300 seriesSep 30 14:08
msb_It's nice to have the standard ATX audio panel on the back (if the onboard audio chip is Linux compatible), and also nice to have lots of USB3 connections.Sep 30 14:09

msb_cubexyz: In 1984 PCDOS and an IBM-PC with a 15MB disk was a very limited system compared to much more expensive PDP-11s available.  But it was more powerful than a PDP-8 or PDP-12 and had plug-in boards you could put your own circuitry on and control by I/O instructions.  It had an assembler and C compiler (for a few hundred dollars more) and came with BASIC.  I taught myself programming on such a machine and did a lot of good work on Oct 01 23:13
msb_it.  XTREE was an excellent filemanager/editor, like mc today.  I had a categorized collection of about 70 utility programs on a floppy disk that I took with me to consulting jobs.  It was a good time!Oct 01 23:13
cubexyzsorry?Oct 01 23:13
cubexyzPDP-11 was what I was talking aboutOct 01 23:14
cubexyzI'm saying that PDP-11 series was more open and more powerful than msdos machines, which it wasOct 01 23:14
msb_"<cubexyz> MSDOS with 640K was a joke"Oct 01 23:15
cubexyzyou got operating system sourceOct 01 23:15
cubexyzit was way better, but more expensive is what I saidOct 01 23:15
cubexyzrightOct 01 23:15
cubexyzso was EMS Oct 01 23:15
cubexyzmsdos with real mode wasn't good at allOct 01 23:16
cubexyz1 meg windowOct 01 23:16
MinceR640kB should be enough for anybody!Oct 01 23:16
MinceR(just like windows.)Oct 01 23:16
cubexyzPDP-11Oct 01 23:17
cubexyzPDP-11 had a proper MMUOct 01 23:17
cubexyzall the higher order computers had MMUs Oct 01 23:19
cubexyzI wasted a lot of time programming around MSDOS limitationsOct 01 23:20
cubexyzhimem.sys?Oct 01 23:20
cubexyzAmiga was better, IBM S/370 was better, Sun was betterOct 01 23:21
cubexyzand PDP-11 was betterOct 01 23:21
msb_I had a high-res color monitor and display card on my cheap PC, and wrote a lot of artistic graphics programs.Oct 01 23:23
msb_It had BIOS source and electrical schematics!Oct 01 23:25
msb_At various times I intercepted the system call interrupts and put in my own "wedges" in order to modify the actions of the BIOS and/or OS.Oct 01 23:26
msb_Having started on a PDP-12 with IIRC 4K of 12-bit RAM I was very happy with my much more powerful PC.Oct 01 23:27
msb_Maybe the 12 was only 2K.Oct 01 23:28
cubexyzyou're jumping erasOct 01 23:28
msb_No, I think PDP-12 came before the 11.Oct 01 23:29
cubexyzthat's what I meanOct 01 23:29
cubexyzPDP-12 was much earlier was it not?Oct 01 23:29
cubexyzcompared to your .... what... 286 PC?Oct 01 23:29
msb_In any case I learned assembly on a 12, and then got a PC with C.Oct 01 23:29
cubexyzI'm guessing 286 since you mentioned BIOS sourceOct 01 23:29
msb_My PC was 8088.  The BIOS source came in a 3-ring binder for about 50-70 bucks.Oct 01 23:30
cubexyzok, early 1980s thenOct 01 23:30
msb_including the schematics.Oct 01 23:30
msb_yesOct 01 23:30
cubexyzmy notes say PDP-12 first appeared in 1969Oct 01 23:31
cubexyzused to about 1972Oct 01 23:31
cubexyzearly 1980s it would have been very difficult to get a computer in the home that had MMUOct 01 23:32
cubexyzthat's just the way it wasOct 01 23:32
msb_The apps and libraries I wrote in C fitted ok in 640K.Oct 01 23:32
cubexyzwhat I am saying is PDP-11's running Unix were better than msdosOct 01 23:33
msb_sureOct 01 23:33
msb_How much did they cost, including Unix?Oct 01 23:33
msb_For a non-institutional user.Oct 01 23:34
cubexyzthat's a bit tricky to answerOct 01 23:36
cubexyzfor PDP-11/20 I know it was $60KOct 01 23:36
cubexyzbut the price went down over timeOct 01 23:36
cubexyzPDP-7 in 1965 was $72KOct 01 23:36
cubexyzDEC LINC-8 was $46K in 1966Oct 01 23:37
msb_My PC, hard drive, display , graphic card, came in at about $6K.Oct 01 23:37
cubexyzPDP-8's were the cheapest for a while... $18KOct 01 23:37
msb_Including C compilerOct 01 23:37
msb_8's were really awful to program.Oct 01 23:37
cubexyzit's real mode that really bugged meOct 01 23:37
cubexyz8086 limitationOct 01 23:38
cubexyzwith Xenix 286 the memory limits weren't as badOct 01 23:38
cubexyzright, I can image the PDP-8 was very also very limitingOct 01 23:38
msb_much worse than 8088Oct 01 23:39
cubexyzmaximum 64k?Oct 01 23:39
msb_640K.Oct 01 23:39
cubexyzno, I mean the PDP-8Oct 01 23:40
msb_IIRC, except for a couple of instructions it was limited to a 256Byte page.Oct 01 23:40
msb_like a 6502Oct 01 23:41
msb_I really wanted a CoCo, with a 6809, designed like a PDP-11, excellent instruction set and memory reach.  But never got one.Oct 01 23:42

cubexyzbut look at Intel nowOct 01 23:45
cubexyznot really that desirableOct 01 23:45
msb_I got a 386 and used it with a very good multitasking and memory extension system from Borland (IIRC).  Wrote a huge app on a contract -- real-time graphics with a software feedback loop for speed regulation, and my own display-list system, which included some conditionals.Oct 01 23:47
cubexyzok... what I ended up doing back in the day was use XMS under msdosOct 01 23:47
cubexyzBUT... I also wrote the same program for the amigaOct 01 23:47
cubexyzthe amiga version was much simpler and cleaner Oct 01 23:48
msb_No doubt!Oct 01 23:48
msb_We had limitations then and worked around them.  We have limitations now.Oct 01 23:48
msb_When we reach the point where we can say, "Computer!" and it says, "Working", it will be a lot less fun.  Thinking is fun!Oct 01 23:50
MinceRwe're not guaranteed to reach that pointOct 01 23:51
cubexyzok... but the whole IBM PC architecture was very limitingOct 01 23:51
MinceRthough if we did, it will probably mean that finally we have an AI that can outlast humanityOct 01 23:51
msb_MinceR: And might choose to.Oct 01 23:51
cubexyzThe 8086 was an ill-conceived attempt to provide an address space larger 64K bytes without actually incurring the costs of a larger architecture. The 8086 is basically a 16/16 architecture. It has a 16-bit program counter, a 16-bit ALU, four 16-bit general purpose registers, and some 16-bit index registers.Oct 01 23:52
msb_But now 86's have multiple cores with multiple pipelines, instruction prediction and caching, and clock rates higher than radar.  We program them in C with good optimizing compilers.  Life is good!Oct 01 23:55
msb_As soon as Devuan comes out.  Oct 01 23:55
cubexyzexcept we went from "BIOS source here you go" to "sign an NDA and give us $20K"Oct 01 23:58
MinceRand soon we'll go to "you get to run osx if you buy your computer from apple or windows if you buy it from anyone else"Oct 01 23:59
msb_When it's time to build my new computer, if I can't get a Tyan mobo with libreboot, I'll probably get a sabretooth and kill UEFI/secure-boot on it.  It can flash the BIOS from a USB stick without a CPU, so I'll have that ready, and make good backups in case the govt bricks my computer.  Hell, they could just come and shoot me if they want to.Oct 01 23:59
cubexyzwell I assume you saw the NSA ANT CatalogOct 02 00:00
cubexyzI've been working on the BIOS problem for 5 years nowOct 02 00:01
msb_Yep.  Thanks!Oct 02 00:01
cubexyzI have a plan about the BIOS situationOct 02 00:01
cubexyzthere's two different approachesOct 02 00:01
msb_MinceR: I think all ASUS mobos have the option of turning off UEFI-secureboot and running any OS you want.Oct 02 00:02
cubexyzthree actuallyOct 02 00:02
MinceRmsb_: for now.Oct 02 00:02
cubexyzfirst I want everyone to remember that Raspberry PI has proprietary firmwareOct 02 00:02
MinceRmsb_: last time, m$ was forced by pr backlash to mandate Restricted Boot to be possible to be disabled on x86Oct 02 00:02
cubexyzok option 1) buy a chromebookOct 02 00:02
MinceRthey already had the hw locked down on armOct 02 00:03
MinceRthis time, that restriction is goneOct 02 00:03
cubexyzoption 2) pay minifree for a X60 laptop with librebootOct 02 00:03
MinceRso expect to see uefi appliances bearing a vista10 sticker that won't boot anything elseOct 02 00:03
cubexyzoption 3) use the leaked AMI source and find a motherboard that works with itOct 02 00:03
MinceRchromebooks, x60s and x200s are weakOct 02 00:03
cubexyzour options for BIOS source code are limitedOct 02 00:04
cubexyzthe hardware gatekeepers are stacked against usOct 02 00:06
MinceRall the fascists are stacked against usOct 02 00:06
msb_I don't think MS could get away with insisting that UEFI/SB not be user controllable on any mobo.Oct 02 00:06
MinceRm$ and crApple made closed platforms and drm hip and coolOct 02 00:06
MinceRmainstream media, dumbFuckBook and m$ destroyed expectations of privacyOct 02 00:07
MinceRmsb_: they canOct 02 00:07
MinceRm$ and crApple could get away with closing the market to competing OS-esOct 02 00:07
MinceReven though the USA and the EU pretends they have antitrust regulations, and regulations against monopoly abuseOct 02 00:07
msb_MinceR: We've been fighting fascists for a century.  We'll go on fighting them.  And with the Net, people have much better communications for organizing and fighting fascists.Oct 02 00:08
MinceRwe willOct 02 00:08
MinceRbut we're losingOct 02 00:08
MinceRyeah, the net is being killed tooOct 02 00:08
MinceRred china started it with their great firewallOct 02 00:08
MinceRmany others are followingOct 02 00:08
MinceRrussia is also employing internet censorshipOct 02 00:08
MinceRnow the UN is plotting for global internet censorshipOct 02 00:08
MinceRand we have fascist megacorporations trying to destroy net neutralityOct 02 00:08
MinceRpeople who have lived through fascist oppression in dictatorship seemed to have forgotten their sufferingOct 02 00:09
msb_MinceR: You always look at the absolute worst possibilities.  That's a limitation of your mind, which you might overcome if you read that CBT pamphlet.  You ignore the infinite possibilities of human creativity.Oct 02 00:10
MinceRi'm well aware of the possibilitiesOct 02 00:10
MinceRbut i can see that the majority is instead marching to put their hands in manacles willingly and happilyOct 02 00:10
msb_If you watch RT you'll see people protesting every day in many different nations about various issues.Oct 02 00:11
MinceRand if you watch RT you'll see blatant advertising of a fascist dictatorshipOct 02 00:12
MinceRyou'll also see putin's stereotypical fascist posturingOct 02 00:12
msb_Actually, you don't.  But even if you did, that doesn';t change what I said, which refutes your idea of "marching to put their hands in manacles willingly".Oct 02 00:13
MinceRactually, the fact that you keep promoting RT and putin shows that even you put your hands in manacles willinglyOct 02 00:14
msb_Lots of people are uniting in political action all over the world.Oct 02 00:14
MinceRyes, usually for the worseOct 02 00:14
cubexyzI think Mincer was referred to Ipads, Windows 10 Laptops, that sort of thingOct 02 00:14
MinceRhungarians united to get rid of that pesky democracyOct 02 00:14
MinceRand they got what they wantedOct 02 00:14
cubexyznot being an educated consumerOct 02 00:14
MinceRcubexyz: yes, in partOct 02 00:14
MinceRi think there's a general theme hereOct 02 00:14
cubexyzSatellite TV is heavily DRMedOct 02 00:15
cubexyzand laden with commercialsOct 02 00:15
MinceReven our display connector standards tend to be laden with DRMOct 02 00:15
MinceReven the formerly open web supports DRM nowOct 02 00:16
cubexyzDRM is usually defeated thoughOct 02 00:17
MinceRyes, as long as we have general-purpose computers and audio and video recording devicesOct 02 00:17
msb_MinceR: You're now stuck in your paranoid depressive delusions.  I won't argue with you anymore.  Read the CBT booklet.  Maybe you can help yourself.Oct 02 00:18
MinceRthe former is being taken away from usOct 02 00:18
MinceRand the latter are slowly being replaced by computer-based devices that are increasingly subject to centralized controlOct 02 00:18
MinceRconsumer idiots love their hypePhones and hypePads, with their closed platforms and backdoorsOct 02 00:18
MinceRi remember seeing crApple patenting means to shut down their devices' recording capabilities remotely so they can't be used to record the abuses of governmentsOct 02 00:19
MinceRthere's no outrageOct 02 00:19
MinceRthese fascists are worshipped as godsOct 02 00:19
msb_To claim that when we now have dozens of different Linux SBCs for less that $50 is the height of nuttiness!Oct 02 00:19
MinceRyeah, i wonder if we'll be allowed to keep our SBCsOct 02 00:20
msb_China can always make more!Oct 02 00:20
MinceRwhether they will is another matterOct 02 00:20
MinceRas is whether they'll be allowed to cross our bordersOct 02 00:20
MinceRremember that we have provisions for inspecting people's data storage devices on border crossingOct 02 00:21
msb_Yeah yeah.  Stalin raped Hungary 50 years ago so the world is doomed now.  MinceR, you fill this channel with insanity.Oct 02 00:22
MinceRstalin did "raped" not only hungary and not only 50 years agoOct 02 00:22
MinceRand you support his legacyOct 02 00:22
msb_You're lying.  Blow it out your ass.Oct 02 00:22
MinceRand there are fascists that are seemingly independent of him, tooOct 02 00:23
MinceRbeing rude doesn't make putin any less of a fascistOct 02 00:23
msb_As I said, and as you totally ignored, fascism is a matter of degree.Oct 02 00:23
MinceRyes, and exactly 0 degree is which is acceptableOct 02 00:24
MinceRand russian-style dictatorships take it a lot further than the likes of crAppleOct 02 00:24
msb_Putin is doing much more to fight fascism than to enforce it.Oct 02 00:24
MinceRwith crApple, you may be left alone as long as you don't use a computer and aren't perceived by oneOct 02 00:24
MinceRwith putin, you'll rot in a gulag if you stand up against himOct 02 00:25
MinceRor you'll be murderedOct 02 00:25
msb_So why are you still walking around?Oct 02 00:25
MinceRhis army hasn't yet reached hereOct 02 00:25
MinceRand his cronies are more occupied with robbing us blind before the country collapses than killing usOct 02 00:26
msb_It doesn't need an army, only one assassin.Oct 02 00:26
MinceRi don't think i'm individually targetedOct 02 00:26
MinceRonly as a member of certain groupsOct 02 00:26
MinceRyetOct 02 00:26
msb_Why not?  You attack Putin in public dozens of times a day.Oct 02 00:27
MinceRi don't own any media outletsOct 02 00:27
msb_:<MinceR> with putin, you'll rot in a gulag if you stand up against him"Oct 02 00:27
msb_you use this media outletOct 02 00:27
MinceRi didn't know this was a media outletOct 02 00:27
MinceRi had the impression that this was an irc channel, ignored by the massesOct 02 00:28
msb_Any of the masses can access it, or it's log on the web.Oct 02 00:28
msb_itsOct 02 00:28
MinceRthey don't care to, thoughOct 02 00:28
MinceRand even if they did, they wouldn't understand any of itOct 02 00:29
MinceRjust as they don't understand how the devices they believe to own are really owned by someone elseOct 02 00:29
msb_You keep changing the subject to avoid the refutation of your nutty claims:  "<MinceR> with putin, you'll rot in a gulag if you stand up against him"Oct 02 00:30
MinceRif you think that's nutty, read up on what putler did to his political enemiesOct 02 00:31
MinceRand what he did to ukrainiansOct 02 00:31
MinceRand read up on the organization he was a member of, and what sort of regime that he served thereOct 02 00:32
MinceRof course you won't understand itOct 02 00:32
MinceRbecause if someone calls themselves "socialist", you immediately give them carte blanche to do whatever crimes against humanity they feel like doingOct 02 00:32

schestowitznot MicrosoftOct 02 12:05
schestowitztheir Hamdi or whatever exec said somethingOct 02 12:06
schestowitzbut not concrete numbersOct 02 12:06
schestowitzmore like an infographicsOct 02 12:06
amonobeaxbut for a company which already owns 95% of the desktop market shareOct 02 12:06
amonobeaxI don't think this is true...Oct 02 12:06
schestowitzas Microsoft's Endstromm-sourced PR head (forgot his name) did re Vista 7Oct 02 12:06
schestowitzThey always find some clever ways to lieOct 02 12:06

schestowitzthey're PROFESSIONAL liarsOct 02 12:07
schestowitzhow to lie without being accused as suchOct 02 12:07

schestowitzwho from?Oct 02 12:07
schestowitz[12:06] <amonobeax> but for a company which already owns 95% of the desktop market shareOct 02 12:07
amonobeaxMaybe we'll know the data when they have to talk to inverstorsOct 02 12:07
schestowitznot 95%Oct 02 12:07
schestowitznot anymoreOct 02 12:07
schestowitzamonobeax: no, they don't have an obligation to tell investors thatOct 02 12:07
amonobeaxnot obligation, ok, but who will invest into your company without data...Oct 02 12:08
amonobeaxthat's too dumb even for M$Oct 02 12:08
amonobeaxI heard it from a couple of tech sitesOct 02 12:09
msb_Did MS automatically without charge upgrade all copies of windows 8 to windows 10?Oct 02 12:09
amonobeaxI know Windows is auto downloading win10Oct 02 12:10
amonobeaxbut auto installing idkOct 02 12:10
msb_I thought I saw that somewhere.Oct 02 12:10
amonobeaxbut it's 1 step from it reallyOct 02 12:10
amonobeaxmaybe you're right thenOct 02 12:10
msb_If they include those automatic copies of w10, they can claim huge success even though nobody really wanted it.Oct 02 12:11
amonobeaxtrueOct 02 12:11
amonobeaxI'm curious about what are they going to do when they have a big chunk of the market share on win10Oct 02 12:12
msb_Anyhow, success for microsoft is injury to humanity.Oct 02 12:12
amonobeaxcause then they'll start closing the trapOct 02 12:12
msb_But sadly, the same is true for systemd.Oct 02 12:12
amonobeaxsry for my ignoranceOct 02 12:13
amonobeaxdon't even know what this isOct 02 12:13
schestowitzmicrosoft can count downloadsOct 02 12:13
schestowitzas in, how many PCs they 'threw' the blob atOct 02 12:13
schestowitzbut anyway, it all boils down to definitionsOct 02 12:13
schestowitzthat's how Microsoft always games the numbersOct 02 12:13
schestowitzlike claiming an enterprise eligible to 100 Vista 7 installs counts as "100 sales"Oct 02 12:14
schestowitzas they did at the timeOct 02 12:14
schestowitzthey try to sell people the illusion that everyone is movin gOct 02 12:14
schestowitzinvoking cattle effectOct 02 12:14
msb_It's a huge blob of software from Red Hat that violates Unix/Linux design/engineering principles, and which, despite being unnecessary, has been adopted by most major Linux distributions. Oct 02 12:14
schestowitzand then some people foolishly move/changeOct 02 12:14
schestowitzself-fulfilling prophecies.Oct 02 12:15
amonobeaxawww I heard about it I guess msb_ Oct 02 12:15
amonobeaxIf it's clearly harmful why distros are embracing it ?Oct 02 12:15
msb_The US govt is RedHat's biggest customer.  Systemd may in the future provide a backdoor for the US govt to kill all Linux computers that use it.Oct 02 12:16
amonobeaxschestowitz: what is really bothering me right now is the fact that M$ could be stealing opensource codeOct 02 12:16
schestowitzthe distro they made?Oct 02 12:16
amonobeaxand we can't do shit cause they are close sourcedOct 02 12:16
msb_That's a big question.  We haven't been able to figure out the answer.Oct 02 12:16
schestowitzif they don't release, then gpl won't force them toOct 02 12:16
schestowitzunlike agplOct 02 12:17
schestowitzif only used internally for azureOct 02 12:17
schestowitzbut microsoft is so secretiveOct 02 12:17
schestowitzthat we don't know what code is used, when, how...Oct 02 12:17
schestowitzMicrosoft has a history of GPL violationsOct 02 12:17
schestowitzin China and in Linux, not sure the China one was GPLOct 02 12:17
schestowitzJuko?Oct 02 12:18
schestowitzSomething like thatOct 02 12:18
schestowitzI forgot the company's nameOct 02 12:18
schestowitzI can look it up, wrote a lot about it at the timeOct 02 12:18
amonobeaxAgain msb_, if it's clear that it's harmful why the adoption ?Oct 02 12:18
amonobeaxare distro dev's crazy?Oct 02 12:19
amonobeaxor somethingOct 02 12:19
msb_Bribery, threats, stupidity, are all possibilities.Oct 02 12:19
*XRevan86 (~XRevan86@meowr.ru) has left #techrightsOct 02 12:20
amonobeaxI'll read more about itOct 02 12:20
amonobeaxI guess I saw a video in which Linus himself say systemd was okOct 02 12:21
amonobeaxso I really don't know what to thinkOct 02 12:21
msb_All the evil that's been going on in the world.  The US govt destr0ying half a dozen nations and murdering millions.  There's no limit to what it may be doing secretly.Oct 02 12:21
msb_Linus' concern is only the kernel, and systemd is outside the kernel.Oct 02 12:22
amonobeaxstill this was his opinion on the matterOct 02 12:22
amonobeaxI guess it was on a Debian thingyOct 02 12:22
msb_Still you would think that he and Richard Stallman would have spoken out against it.  But they haven't.Oct 02 12:23
msb_People are working on a Debian variant called Devuan without systemd, but with up-to-date application and system software.Oct 02 12:24
msb_It's our best hope.Oct 02 12:24
amonobeaxI seeOct 02 12:24
amonobeaxisn't systemd switchable in most distros?Oct 02 12:25
msb_No.  Not in any.Oct 02 12:25
msb_The initialization setup with and without it are very different.Oct 02 12:26
schestowitzpeople are afraid of criticising systemd nowOct 02 12:26
schestowitzit's stigmatisied with homophobia and other things nowOct 02 12:26
amonobeaxwhatOct 02 12:27
schestowitzeven with mono there was no such stigmaOct 02 12:27
amonobeaxhomophobia, whyOct 02 12:27
schestowitzthe only stigma was "anti-Microsoft"Oct 02 12:27
schestowitzbecause LP is a homosexualOct 02 12:27
amonobeaxomg...Oct 02 12:27
schestowitzand some people trolled him over systemd in an abusive, personal fashionOct 02 12:27
msb_First time I've heard that!Oct 02 12:27
amonobeaxI'm no tech guyOct 02 12:28
schestowitzso if you don't like systemd -> you hate LP -> you're harassing homosexualsOct 02 12:28
amonobeaxso swtching defaults is really painful for meOct 02 12:28
amonobeaxI'll keep track on things thoOct 02 12:28

<--amarsh04 has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Sep 27 00:36
msb_Seems weird and complicated.  I don't know anybody who keeps their data in a cloud.  Good big disks are cheap, and Bash, C, Ruby and Python are all great programming languages with plenty of documentation.  And they and Linux all run on a $50 SBC.Sep 27 00:45
gde33|2msb_: it is explained well enough I think?Sep 27 00:46
gde33|2his shop example is greatSep 27 00:47
gde33|2if you control the application the developer doesn't get to charge a fee on every transactionSep 27 00:47
<--DaemonFC has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)Sep 27 00:48
gde33|2For example: with other people's apps, when you want to shop on the Internets, you point your browser at amazon.com or use the Google bar as a full-text store. With your own apps, you're more likely to point your browser at your own shopping assistant. This program, which works entirely for you and is not slipping anyone else a cut, uses APIs to sync inventory data and send purchase orders.Sep 27 00:49
gde33|2The difference between apps you control and apps you don't is the difference between a shopping assistant and a store. It would be absurd if a shopping assistant paid its developer a percentage of all transactions. It would be absurd if a store didn't. The general task is the same, but every detail is different.Sep 27 00:50
gde33|2msb_: all these walled gardens are the end of the internetSep 27 00:50
gde33|2you just become everyones slut/slaveSep 27 00:51
msb_What walled gardens?Sep 27 00:51
gde33|2all of the popular web servicesSep 27 00:51
gde33|2nothing is yours on facebookSep 27 00:52
gde33|2nothing is yours on googleSep 27 00:52
gde33|2even when a business really wants to preserve your privacy they can get a gag order and be forced to share your data with hidden peopleSep 27 00:52
msb_so what.  as long as google search works i;ll use it.  Otherwise I'll switch to another.Sep 27 00:52
gde33|2there is no otherSep 27 00:53
msb_Privacy from govts on the Net is impossibleSep 27 00:53

gde33|2you have to draw the line from the beginning into the futureSep 27 00:53
gde33|2those are walled gardens tooSep 27 00:53
gde33|2you cant see the walled garden?Sep 27 00:54
msb_a web search engine requires hundreds of computers.  It's not going to be in urbit, whatever that is.Sep 27 00:54
gde33|2thats not the point at allSep 27 00:54
gde33|2you could just read the page if you want to know what the point isSep 27 00:55
gde33|2but ok...Sep 27 00:55
gde33|2if you use a web app the developer is in controlSep 27 00:55
gde33|2he just owns youSep 27 00:55
gde33|2you cant migrate, your service can be terminated, your life can be shared with anyoneSep 27 00:55
msb_I don't use web apps except google.Sep 27 00:55
gde33|2but most people doSep 27 00:56
msb_Then they should use FOSS apps on their own computer.Sep 27 00:56
gde33|2everyone is developing internet prisons, I assume this is why you dont want any part of it?Sep 27 00:56
gde33|2certainly but applications on your computer can only do so muchSep 27 00:57
msb_I don't know what you mean.  Run apps on your own cheap computer and cheap disk.  simpleSep 27 00:57
gde33|2you probably have your own server too?Sep 27 00:58

msb_No, but the guy who does is a good friend.Sep 27 00:59
msb_But if the site got taken down I'd just put it up somewhere else.Sep 27 01:00
gde33|2say we create a model where we chose what other people should be able to access and what should not be accessed by othersSep 27 01:01
gde33|2if we compare the internet to the ideal model it just doesn't work like thatSep 27 01:01

gde33|2you and me might be sophisticted enough to deal with the issueSep 27 01:01
msb_I want my shit to be leaked.  I'm _broadcasting_ it!Sep 27 01:02
gde33|2we should also want to end it for othersSep 27 01:02
gde33|2most people dont get what can be done with private dataSep 27 01:02
gde33|2the paterns are well beyond imaginationSep 27 01:02
msb_If they want private data, keep it on their home disk, with a backup.Sep 27 01:02
gde33|2if you have seemingly meaningless data about millions of people you can find paterns no one can imagineSep 27 01:03
gde33|2but the thing we can all see is that mass explotation and monopolization isn't good for anyoneSep 27 01:03
msb_I don't want data about millions of people, and have no way to get it anyhow.Sep 27 01:03
gde33|2we want everyone to use free and opensource softwareSep 27 01:04
gde33|2everything else should just dieSep 27 01:04
msb_So we should broadcast information to as many people as possible telling them about the govts and corps that are exploiting and monopolizing them.Sep 27 01:05
gde33|2that could workSep 27 01:05
gde33|2but programmers should try to fix things by coding, they can get into politics but will quickly find it a full time jobSep 27 01:06
gde33|2they stop being a programer Sep 27 01:06
gde33|2" Since we're doing a clean-slate design, it's a mistake to focus too much on fixing the flaws of the old platform. The correct question is: what is the right way to build a system software stack?" Sep 27 01:07
msb_Your own computer with FOSS and storage and good languages, an internet connection, and a website.  You can also publish on mailing lists.  This all works fine.Sep 27 01:08
msb_Devuan is coming along, so people can stay with a Linux that has lots of up to date apps.Sep 27 01:10
gde33|2centralized systems are points of failureSep 27 01:11
msb_ISP and website cost about $30/monthSep 27 01:11
gde33|2your mailinglist is just deletedSep 27 01:11
msb_there are plenty more, and you can start your ownSep 27 01:11
msb_For some reason, the fascists are not killing lists, youtube, websites, isps, etc.Sep 27 01:12
gde33|2the core idea in urbit is to have n:1 rather than 1:nSep 27 01:13
msb_Or cheap personal computers.  So while we have these things, lets use them to educate the world.Sep 27 01:13
msb_web apps are unnecessarySep 27 01:13
gde33|2what is the reason the facists have not killed those platforms?Sep 27 01:13
msb_I wish I knew.Sep 27 01:14
gde33|2google buys things just to shut them downSep 27 01:14
gde33|2they had google video then purchased youtubeSep 27 01:14
gde33|2they killed google video and destroyed youtubeSep 27 01:15
gde33|2web hosting uses the same modelSep 27 01:15
msb_Youtube is fine, and if necessary you can put videos on your own website.Sep 27 01:15
gde33|2the idea is to allow people to create content because you cant stop themSep 27 01:15
gde33|2but what you can do is just delete everything after a few yearsSep 27 01:15
gde33|2lure people in with a cosy environmentSep 27 01:15
msb_Whatever urbit runs on the govt could stop it.Sep 27 01:16
gde33|2then strip out all the human interaction Sep 27 01:16
gde33|2youtube is nonsense compared to what it wasSep 27 01:16
msb_I save all the youtube videos i'm interested in.Sep 27 01:16
gde33|2it use to have thousands of people making vlogs about things, responding to other peoples videos with video responsesSep 27 01:16
gde33|2it was a community, they purchased a comunitySep 27 01:16
gde33|2this is all dead nowSep 27 01:16
msb_So if people want to respond, they put up their own video.Sep 27 01:17
gde33|2not one of my hundreds of subscriptions is working todaySep 27 01:17
gde33|2people who use to talk about all things in life had millions of viewersSep 27 01:18
gde33|2if you upload a video today it gets 100 viewsSep 27 01:18
gde33|2or non at all, I know people trying to make a channelSep 27 01:18
msb_Stuff on the Net is not permanent.  If you want to keep it, download it to your own disk.Sep 27 01:18

msb_cubexyz: "<cubexyz> I know some people are disparaging chromebooks but I think they are decent enough"  How does the fastest chromebook compare in pure MIPS speed with a modern cheap 8-core CPU like the AMD FX-8350 (which costs $160, but that's just for the CPU)?Sep 27 15:33
msb_Seems to me if you're going to spend a few hundred dollars on a computer, you might as well spend a couple hundred more and get one that's fast enough to display h265 videos, do video transcoding, and video editing.  IOW, get one that's _cheap_ _nearly_ state-of-the-art.Sep 27 15:40
msb_That's my idea of the price/performance sweet spot.Sep 27 15:41
msb_As to coreboot, that's very nice, but all Linuxes have some kind of workaround for UEFI, right?Sep 27 15:42
msb_cubexyz: As an entry-level computer, a chromebook is a step above a SBC, hard disk and TV spread out on a table.  And some people have hard limits on what they can afford...Sep 27 15:47
cubexyzhaving the source code for the firmware is very appealingSep 27 16:01

DaemonFCIt is in 37 countries, but not in the US, except for 8 cities.Sep 30 08:00
DaemonFCThe operation is dangerous and it can cause more problems for you and the cat than it solves.Sep 30 08:00
DaemonFCIt's better to get them a scratching post and encourage them to use that.Sep 30 08:00
DaemonFCI like cats, but they reproduce like crazy if you don't get that taken care of.Sep 30 08:02
DaemonFCA breeding pair of cats can result in 480,000 kittens in just 7 years.Sep 30 08:02
DaemonFCNature is harsh, so it encourages reproducing in huge numbers so that some will live on to have offspring themselves.Sep 30 08:03
msb_I said claws _trimmed_, not declawed.  Get a wire-stripper like this:  http://learning.hccs.edu/faculty/khansaa.almansor1/cett1321/wiring-2/wiring-1/wire-stripper/imageSep 30 08:03

msb_Adjust the screw so it can close completely.  Then press on the cat's toe so the claw emerges, and place the tip of the claw -- the clear part only, not containing blood vessels  -- in the triangular notches of the wirestripper and close it.  That cuts the claw from 4 sides so it doesn't split.Sep 30 08:05
msb_Repeat for all front and back claws.  Removing the sharp tip of the claw greatly decreases the amount of injury it can cause.Sep 30 08:07
msb_DaemonFC: some cats need wrapping in a towel and holding by another person to trim their claws.  Some don't mind, especially if you only do a few claws at a time.Sep 30 08:09
msb_Of course, only indoor-only  cats should have their claws trimmed.Sep 30 08:10
msb_DaemonFC: You can also have the vet grind off the very tips of the fangs of an indoor cat during neutering/spaying if it bites.Sep 30 08:12
msb_DaemonFC: Neither claw-trimming nor fang de-pointing detracts from the quality of life of an indoor-only cat in any way.  They can still climb scratching-posts, chew meat, etc.Sep 30 08:13
DaemonFCShe's a good cat.Sep 30 08:13
DaemonFCVery mild mannered.Sep 30 08:13
DaemonFCYeah, I had to have a tooth resurfaced once. It worked out okay. I'd imagine it's about the same for a cat.Sep 30 08:14
msb_Please spread the word on the wire-stripper.  All Radio Shacks have them for $5 or less, and they do a much better job than the claw trimmers from a pet store that only cut the claw from 2 sides instead of 4.Sep 30 08:16
msb_Those can painfully split the claw.Sep 30 08:16

cubexyzok, I can make some remarks on why the firmware situation is so poorSep 30 08:27
cubexyzfirst of all the BIOS writers, with the exception of Coreboot/Libreboot are using Microsoft programming tool to write the BIOSSep 30 08:29
cubexyzMicrosoft also added things to the PCI specSep 30 08:29
cubexyzthe trend almost from the very beginning of the IBM PC was to use Microsoft programming toolsSep 30 08:30
msb_What things, and does the MS assembler write bad code?Sep 30 08:30
cubexyzAward was using different Masm versions, so was Intel/IBMSep 30 08:31
cubexyzwell it's bad in that it's highly proprietary closed source codeSep 30 08:32
cubexyzalso some of the chips used in motherboards you have to sign an NDA to see the datasheetsSep 30 08:33
cubexyzand of course with secure boot/intel boot guard you couldn't even change the firmware if you wanted toSep 30 08:33
cubexyzstandard price to get the source code (and sign the NDA)?Sep 30 08:34

cubexyzbasically you want at least a motherboard without secure boot/intel boot guardSep 30 08:45
cubexyzideally you want a motherboard with coreboot Sep 30 08:45
msb_Of course I'm not recommending that anyone use any ms product, but if someone uses masm, or even msc, it's silly to shun the resulting product.   I think it's also silly to take a two-thirds speed decrease on your computer in order to avoid closed-source BIOS (although it may be safer to us an AMD than an Intel CPU).Sep 30 08:45
cubexyzwell, I'm drawing a line hereSep 30 08:47
msb_Ideally, yes.  But since I can get a mobo in which I can turn off secure-boot/boot-guard/UEFI, and get 3 times the MIPS speed as the fastest cheap one with coreboot, I want the speed.Sep 30 08:47
cubexyzwe'll see if things get even worse in the futureSep 30 08:47

cubexyzI'm contacting Tyan about this nowSep 30 08:57
msb_That doesn't lock the consumer into using an Intel CPU.  You can't use an AMD CPU on a mobo meant for Intel anyhow.  It just saves the cost of a ZIF socket.Sep 30 08:58
msb_Actually it might _cost_ Intel money, because with a socket, the user might buy another, faster Intel CPU.Sep 30 08:59
cubexyzcall it planned obsolescence thenSep 30 09:00
msb_cubexyz: Please ask Tyan if they have a user-type mobo (with audio, USB, etc) for an AMD FX-8350, with coreboot.Sep 30 09:02

cubexyzwhat is the frame buffer doing? I only have a vague ideaSep 30 09:34
msb_Consider the disk controller BIOS.  To ascertain that it's controlling the disk drives properly, would take a huge amount of work and knowledge even if you have the source code. But it probably is OK, because if it weren't it would cause errors, and they'd fix it.   But if there's a secret section in there that looks for the phrase :"The King is a fink", and reports you to the govt if it finds that in a file, then you want the source Sep 30 09:35

cubexyzit seems easily defeated... just boot into Linux from a CD or somethingSep 30 13:23
cubexyzseems like it wouldn't be too effective against a tech savvy thiefSep 30 13:24
msb_Suppose the US govt does something really horrible like blow up an A-bomb in the US and blame it on Russia -- certainly within the realm of possibility, the US govt readily murders a million people in a single invasion.   And researchers find the evidence that the US did it, and people are spreading the word on the Net.  The govt can kill most of the computers that  people are using to talk about this.Sep 30 13:25
cubexyzrpcnet.exe can be persistent on windowsSep 30 13:26
msb_Doesn't Linux use the BIOS when it boots?Sep 30 13:26
cubexyzsureSep 30 13:26
cubexyzram initialization must occur before anything elseSep 30 13:26
cubexyzthere's a bunch of things it has to do before hitting the hard drive Sep 30 13:27
msb_So booting into Linux from a CD might not defeat the malware.Sep 30 13:28
cubexyzLojack has two partsSep 30 13:28
cubexyzpart lives in the BIOS, part lives in windowsSep 30 13:28
cubexyzI think it needs both parts to phone homeSep 30 13:28
msb_It works in Macs and Androids too.Sep 30 13:28
msb_And by now they may have put both parts in the BIOS.Sep 30 13:30
cubexyzpossibleSep 30 13:30
msb_Scan your bios for the string lojack, case insensitive.Sep 30 13:31
cubexyzthat's a bit trickySep 30 13:32
cubexyzmost BIOSes are compressedSep 30 13:32
cubexyzobviously it's not in corebootSep 30 13:33
cubexyzI compiled it myselfSep 30 13:33
msb_Here's a C program that prints all printable characters and ignores any non-printable ones:Sep 30 13:33

msb_So run that on the bios and then grep -i the output for lojack.  Their vanity may have led them to put it in there in the clear.Sep 30 13:37
msb_That'Sep 30 13:39
cubexyzhmmm, it looks like you have to pay an extra $125 to get Lojack on Panasonic ToughbookSep 30 13:40
msb_That's an extremely sophisticated program that I wrote for analyzing konsole temp files, which have about 10 non-printables between every text character.Sep 30 13:40
cubexyzwhat's the non-printable characters for?Sep 30 13:40
msb_I didn't try to find out.  Formatting, I guess.Sep 30 13:41
msb_Remember how on some IBM mainframes you'd pay them half a million dollars for a speed increase and a tech would come in and just move a jumper?  The whole lojack may be in there, and they may just change a byte when you pay the $125.Sep 30 13:43
msb_Much easier for inventory tracking.Sep 30 13:43
cubexyzAMI might ship the BIOS to the OEM then the OEM would add the lojack partSep 30 13:44
cubexyzthen it wouldn't turn up in the sourceSep 30 13:44
msb_What's the diff?  We don't get to see the AMI source anyhow.Sep 30 13:45

msb_  -- Susanne Modeski, "Unusual Suspects", _X-Files_Sep 30 13:48
msb_I guess XRevan86 is right to be worried about spyware in the BIOS.  He likes systemd but I'll bet it'll be in there too if it isn't already.  "Paranoia is just a form of heightened awareness."Sep 30 13:53
msb_Our whole mainstream culture is built around the insectoid psychopath channel in the human mind -- the religions, the economic system, the government, the educational system, the commercial media.Sep 30 13:56

gde33|2.onion is a special-use top level domain suffix designating an anonymous hidden service reachable via the Tor network. Such addresses are not actual DNS names, and the .onion TLD is not in the Internet DNS root, but with the appropriate proxy software installed, Internet programs such as web browsers can access sites with .onion addresses by sending the request through the network of Tor servers.

msb_MinceR: To have an accurate idea of what's going on, you have to see things in terms of degree, not black and white.  Putin may be a front for some wealthy Russians, and he did lock up Pussy Riot and censored some Internet sources.  But compared to what the US has done around the world since 2001, Putin and China have not done much to control other nations, nor to mass murder people.Oct 01 11:57

MinceRand they have done it beforeOct 01 11:58
msb_That's a fantasy in your mind, derived from what the USSR did to Hungary 60  years ago.  Other than a few infrequent threats to try to limit actual US _actions_, there's no evidence for your claims.Oct 01 12:00

MinceRand what the USSR did to hungary for about 60 years, they did to all other countries in the eastern blocOct 01 12:02

MinceRyes they haveOct 01 12:03

cubexyz1993Oct 01 12:31
msb_MinceR: Here it is:  http://aldeilis.net/truth/119.pdfOct 01 12:32
MinceRthe origin of the "red/gray chips" is uncertainOct 01 12:37
msb_Normal thermite is a mixture of aluminum and iron oxide powders.  The thermitic chips found in the dust were thin flakes with the Al on one side and the Fe203 on the other, in intimate contact so the reaction proceeds very rapidly.Oct 01 12:39
MinceRsure, but how do we know the alleged citizens who turned them in really found them where they say they did?Oct 01 12:39
MinceR(or even when they did)Oct 01 12:39
msb_The were produced by a sol-gel process in a US lab.  I have a paper with the details.Oct 01 12:40
msb_It's very high-tech.  They can't be produced by accident.Oct 01 12:41
MinceRthey can be submitted by foreign disinformation agents, thoughOct 01 12:42
MinceRand then you can analyze them using totally credible techniques and still be misledOct 01 12:42
msb_Are you claiming that all the people who scraped the dust off their windowsills were working for Putin?Oct 01 12:43
MinceRno, i'm saying the 4 people mentioned in the study may have been working for putinOct 01 12:43
MinceRas such, they may have not scraped the chips off their windowsillsOct 01 12:44
msb_Even the US govt lying propaganda sites don't say that.Oct 01 12:44
MinceRdo those sites acknowledge the red/gray chips issue at all?Oct 01 12:44
msb_Some say they were flecks of paint.Oct 01 12:45
MinceRi've seen rebuttals to thatOct 01 12:45
MinceRbut those replies may be "loose change"-levelOct 01 12:45
msb_But paint flecks don't burst into a shower of bright sparks when heated to a few hundred degrees.Oct 01 12:46
MinceRindeedOct 01 12:46
MinceRsuch paint would probably not be allowed to be used in buildingsOct 01 12:46
MinceRbut we still don't really know where they come fromOct 01 12:46
msb_Correct.  Elemental aluminum is a very high-energy reducing agent.Oct 01 12:46
msb_Thermite burns with a very bright actinic light.  The chips had to be below ground or the light would have been seen.  They were used to melt the girders below ground level.Oct 01 12:48
MinceRhow did they get out of the site, then?Oct 01 12:48
msb_Some unburned ones were carried up by the hot air produced by the others.Oct 01 12:49
MinceRalso, were the girders visible from areas visitors and office workers and such were normally in within the building?Oct 01 12:49
MinceR(if not, maybe they could have been used higher up)Oct 01 12:50
msb_Not underground where the thermite was.  The thermite could have been poured into the hollow box-columns thru the inspection holes left in them.Oct 01 12:51
msb_Conventional explosives were used above ground.  Light from thermite would have shown on the videos.Oct 01 12:52
MinceRconventional explosives produce light too, don't they?Oct 01 12:53
msb_Brief flashes.Oct 01 12:53
msb_But the explosives were hidden in the concrete cores of the towers, built in to them.  But without detonators, which were added shortly before 9/11.Oct 01 12:54
MinceRother sources say the aluminium in the flakes was not aluminium metal, but as part of kaolin (aluminium silicate)Oct 01 12:54

msb_I should say the aluminum in aluminum silicate is already oxidized.Oct 01 12:56
msb_Elementary chemistry.Oct 01 12:56
msb_Fig. 19 and 29 shows the thermitic chips igniting.Oct 01 12:59
msb_Burning aluminum produces extremely high energy, much more than burning coal or wood.  It has such high energy that it can pull the oxygen out of iron oxide, leaving molten iron.   That molten iron can be used to weld railroad tracks, which is or was a principle use of thermite.Oct 01 13:07

msb_cubexyz: In 1984 PCDOS and an IBM-PC with a 15MB disk was a very limited system compared to much more expensive PDP-11s available.  But it was more powerful than a PDP-8 or PDP-12 and had plug-in boards you could put your own circuitry on and control by I/O instructions.  It had an assembler and C compiler (for a few hundred dollars more) and came with BASIC.  I taught myself programming on such a machine and did a lot of good work on Oct 01 18:13

msb_In any case I learned assembly on a 12, and then got a PC with C.Oct 01 18:29
cubexyzI'm guessing 286 since you mentioned BIOS sourceOct 01 18:29
msb_My PC was 8088.  The BIOS source came in a 3-ring binder for about 50-70 bucks.Oct 01 18:30
cubexyzok, early 1980s thenOct 01 18:30
msb_including the schematics.Oct 01 18:30
msb_yesOct 01 18:30
cubexyzmy notes say PDP-12 first appeared in 1969Oct 01 18:31
cubexyzused to about 1972Oct 01 18:31
cubexyzearly 1980s it would have been very difficult to get a computer in the home that had MMUOct 01 18:32
cubexyzthat's just the way it wasOct 01 18:32
msb_The apps and libraries I wrote in C fitted ok in 640K.Oct 01 18:32
cubexyzwhat I am saying is PDP-11's running Unix were better than msdosOct 01 18:33
msb_sureOct 01 18:33
msb_How much did they cost, including Unix?Oct 01 18:33
msb_For a non-institutional user.Oct 01 18:34
cubexyzthat's a bit tricky to answerOct 01 18:36
cubexyzfor PDP-11/20 I know it was $60KOct 01 18:36
cubexyzbut the price went down over timeOct 01 18:36
cubexyzPDP-7 in 1965 was $72KOct 01 18:36
cubexyzDEC LINC-8 was $46K in 1966Oct 01 18:37
msb_My PC, hard drive, display , graphic card, came in at about $6K.Oct 01 18:37
cubexyzPDP-8's were the cheapest for a while... $18KOct 01 18:37
msb_Including C compilerOct 01 18:37
msb_8's were really awful to program.Oct 01 18:37
cubexyzit's real mode that really bugged meOct 01 18:37
cubexyz8086 limitationOct 01 18:38
cubexyzwith Xenix 286 the memory limits weren't as badOct 01 18:38
cubexyzright, I can image the PDP-8 was very also very limitingOct 01 18:38
msb_much worse than 8088Oct 01 18:39
cubexyzmaximum 64k?Oct 01 18:39
msb_640K.Oct 01 18:39
cubexyzno, I mean the PDP-8Oct 01 18:40
msb_IIRC, except for a couple of instructions it was limited to a 256Byte page.Oct 01 18:40
msb_like a 6502Oct 01 18:41
msb_I really wanted a CoCo, with a 6809, designed like a PDP-11, excellent instruction set and memory reach.  But never got one.Oct 01 18:42

cubexyzbut look at Intel nowOct 01 18:45
cubexyznot really that desirableOct 01 18:45
msb_I got a 386 and used it with a very good multitasking and memory extension system from Borland (IIRC).  Wrote a huge app on a contract -- real-time graphics with a software feedback loop for speed regulation, and my own display-list system, which included some conditionals.Oct 01 18:47
cubexyzok... what I ended up doing back in the day was use XMS under msdosOct 01 18:47
cubexyzBUT... I also wrote the same program for the amigaOct 01 18:47
cubexyzthe amiga version was much simpler and cleaner Oct 01 18:48
msb_No doubt!Oct 01 18:48
msb_We had limitations then and worked around them.  We have limitations now.Oct 01 18:48
msb_When we reach the point where we can say, "Computer!" and it says, "Working", it will be a lot less fun.  Thinking is fun!Oct 01 18:50
MinceRwe're not guaranteed to reach that pointOct 01 18:51
cubexyzok... but the whole IBM PC architecture was very limitingOct 01 18:51
MinceRthough if we did, it will probably mean that finally we have an AI that can outlast humanityOct 01 18:51
msb_MinceR: And might choose to.Oct 01 18:51
cubexyzThe 8086 was an ill-conceived attempt to provide an address space larger 64K bytes without actually incurring the costs of a larger architecture. The 8086 is basically a 16/16 architecture. It has a 16-bit program counter, a 16-bit ALU, four 16-bit general purpose registers, and some 16-bit index registers.Oct 01 18:52
msb_But now 86's have multiple cores with multiple pipelines, instruction prediction and caching, and clock rates higher than radar.  We program them in C with good optimizing compilers.  Life is good!Oct 01 18:55
msb_As soon as Devuan comes out.  Oct 01 18:55
cubexyzexcept we went from "BIOS source here you go" to "sign an NDA and give us $20K"Oct 01 18:58
MinceRand soon we'll go to "you get to run osx if you buy your computer from apple or windows if you buy it from anyone else"Oct 01 18:59
msb_When it's time to build my new computer, if I can't get a Tyan mobo with libreboot, I'll probably get a sabretooth and kill UEFI/secure-boot on it.  It can flash the BIOS from a USB stick without a CPU, so I'll have that ready, and make good backups in case the govt bricks my computer.  Hell, they could just come and shoot me if they want to.Oct 01 18:59
cubexyzwell I assume you saw the NSA ANT CatalogOct 01 19:00
cubexyzI've been working on the BIOS problem for 5 years nowOct 01 19:01
msb_Yep.  Thanks!Oct 01 19:01
cubexyzI have a plan about the BIOS situationOct 01 19:01
cubexyzthere's two different approachesOct 01 19:01
msb_MinceR: I think all ASUS mobos have the option of turning off UEFI-secureboot and running any OS you want.Oct 01 19:02
cubexyzthree actuallyOct 01 19:02
MinceRmsb_: for now.Oct 01 19:02
cubexyzfirst I want everyone to remember that Raspberry PI has proprietary firmwareOct 01 19:02
MinceRmsb_: last time, m$ was forced by pr backlash to mandate Restricted Boot to be possible to be disabled on x86Oct 01 19:02
cubexyzok option 1) buy a chromebookOct 01 19:02
MinceRthey already had the hw locked down on armOct 01 19:03
MinceRthis time, that restriction is goneOct 01 19:03
cubexyzoption 2) pay minifree for a X60 laptop with librebootOct 01 19:03
MinceRso expect to see uefi appliances bearing a vista10 sticker that won't boot anything elseOct 01 19:03
cubexyzoption 3) use the leaked AMI source and find a motherboard that works with itOct 01 19:03
MinceRchromebooks, x60s and x200s are weakOct 01 19:03
cubexyzour options for BIOS source code are limitedOct 01 19:04
cubexyzthe hardware gatekeepers are stacked against usOct 01 19:06
MinceRall the fascists are stacked against usOct 01 19:06
msb_I don't think MS could get away with insisting that UEFI/SB not be user controllable on any mobo.Oct 01 19:06
MinceRm$ and crApple made closed platforms and drm hip and coolOct 01 19:06
MinceRmainstream media, dumbFuckBook and m$ destroyed expectations of privacyOct 01 19:07
MinceRmsb_: they canOct 01 19:07
MinceRm$ and crApple could get away with closing the market to competing OS-esOct 01 19:07
MinceReven though the USA and the EU pretends they have antitrust regulations, and regulations against monopoly abuseOct 01 19:07
msb_MinceR: We've been fighting fascists for a century.  We'll go on fighting them.  And with the Net, people have much better communications for organizing and fighting fascists.Oct 01 19:08
MinceRwe willOct 01 19:08
MinceRbut we're losingOct 01 19:08
MinceRyeah, the net is being killed tooOct 01 19:08
MinceRred china started it with their great firewallOct 01 19:08
MinceRmany others are followingOct 01 19:08
MinceRrussia is also employing internet censorshipOct 01 19:08
MinceRnow the UN is plotting for global internet censorshipOct 01 19:08
MinceRand we have fascist megacorporations trying to destroy net neutralityOct 01 19:08
MinceRpeople who have lived through fascist oppression in dictatorship seemed to have forgotten their sufferingOct 01 19:09
msb_MinceR: You always look at the absolute worst possibilities.  That's a limitation of your mind, which you might overcome if you read that CBT pamphlet.  You ignore the infinite possibilities of human creativity.Oct 01 19:10
MinceRi'm well aware of the possibilitiesOct 01 19:10
MinceRbut i can see that the majority is instead marching to put their hands in manacles willingly and happilyOct 01 19:10
msb_If you watch RT you'll see people protesting every day in many different nations about various issues.Oct 01 19:11
MinceRand if you watch RT you'll see blatant advertising of a fascist dictatorshipOct 01 19:12
MinceRyou'll also see putin's stereotypical fascist posturingOct 01 19:12
msb_Actually, you don't.  But even if you did, that doesn';t change what I said, which refutes your idea of "marching to put their hands in manacles willingly".Oct 01 19:13
MinceRactually, the fact that you keep promoting RT and putin shows that even you put your hands in manacles willinglyOct 01 19:14
msb_Lots of people are uniting in political action all over the world.Oct 01 19:14
MinceRyes, usually for the worseOct 01 19:14
cubexyzI think Mincer was referred to Ipads, Windows 10 Laptops, that sort of thingOct 01 19:14
MinceRhungarians united to get rid of that pesky democracyOct 01 19:14
MinceRand they got what they wantedOct 01 19:14
cubexyznot being an educated consumerOct 01 19:14
MinceRcubexyz: yes, in partOct 01 19:14
MinceRi think there's a general theme hereOct 01 19:14
cubexyzSatellite TV is heavily DRMedOct 01 19:15
cubexyzand laden with commercialsOct 01 19:15
MinceReven our display connector standards tend to be laden with DRMOct 01 19:15
MinceReven the formerly open web supports DRM nowOct 01 19:16
cubexyzDRM is usually defeated thoughOct 01 19:17
MinceRyes, as long as we have general-purpose computers and audio and video recording devicesOct 01 19:18
msb_MinceR: You're now stuck in your paranoid depressive delusions.  I won't argue with you anymore.  Read the CBT booklet.  Maybe you can help yourself.Oct 01 19:18
MinceRthe former is being taken away from usOct 01 19:18
MinceRand the latter are slowly being replaced by computer-based devices that are increasingly subject to centralized controlOct 01 19:18
MinceRconsumer idiots love their hypePhones and hypePads, with their closed platforms and backdoorsOct 01 19:18
MinceRi remember seeing crApple patenting means to shut down their devices' recording capabilities remotely so they can't be used to record the abuses of governmentsOct 01 19:19
MinceRthere's no outrageOct 01 19:19
MinceRthese fascists are worshipped as godsOct 01 19:19
msb_To claim that when we now have dozens of different Linux SBCs for less that $50 is the height of nuttiness!Oct 01 19:19
MinceRyeah, i wonder if we'll be allowed to keep our SBCsOct 01 19:20
msb_China can always make more!Oct 01 19:20
MinceRwhether they will is another matterOct 01 19:20
MinceRas is whether they'll be allowed to cross our bordersOct 01 19:20
MinceRremember that we have provisions for inspecting people's data storage devices on border crossingOct 01 19:21
msb_Yeah yeah.  Stalin raped Hungary 50 years ago so the world is doomed now.  MinceR, you fill this channel with insanity.Oct 01 19:22
MinceRstalin did "raped" not only hungary and not only 50 years agoOct 01 19:22
MinceRand you support his legacyOct 01 19:22
msb_You're lying.  Blow it out your ass.Oct 01 19:22
MinceRand there are fascists that are seemingly independent of him, tooOct 01 19:23
MinceRbeing rude doesn't make putin any less of a fascistOct 01 19:23
msb_As I said, and as you totally ignored, fascism is a matter of degree.Oct 01 19:23
MinceRyes, and exactly 0 degree is which is acceptableOct 01 19:24
MinceRand russian-style dictatorships take it a lot further than the likes of crAppleOct 01 19:24
msb_Putin is doing much more to fight fascism than to enforce it.Oct 01 19:24
MinceRwith crApple, you may be left alone as long as you don't use a computer and aren't perceived by oneOct 01 19:24
MinceRwith putin, you'll rot in a gulag if you stand up against himOct 01 19:25
MinceRor you'll be murderedOct 01 19:25
msb_So why are you still walking around?Oct 01 19:25
MinceRhis army hasn't yet reached hereOct 01 19:25
MinceRand his cronies are more occupied with robbing us blind before the country collapses than killing usOct 01 19:26
msb_It doesn't need an army, only one assassin.Oct 01 19:26
MinceRi don't think i'm individually targetedOct 01 19:26
MinceRonly as a member of certain groupsOct 01 19:26
MinceRyetOct 01 19:26
msb_Why not?  You attack Putin in public dozens of times a day.Oct 01 19:27
MinceRi don't own any media outletsOct 01 19:27
msb_:<MinceR> with putin, you'll rot in a gulag if you stand up against him"Oct 01 19:27
msb_you use this media outletOct 01 19:27
MinceRi didn't know this was a media outletOct 01 19:28
MinceRi had the impression that this was an irc channel, ignored by the massesOct 01 19:28
msb_Any of the masses can access it, or it's log on the web.Oct 01 19:28
msb_itsOct 01 19:28
MinceRthey don't care to, thoughOct 01 19:28
MinceRand even if they did, they wouldn't understand any of itOct 01 19:29
MinceRjust as they don't understand how the devices they believe to own are really owned by someone elseOct 01 19:29
msb_You keep changing the subject to avoid the refutation of your nutty claims:  "<MinceR> with putin, you'll rot in a gulag if you stand up against him"Oct 01 19:30
MinceRif you think that's nutty, read up on what putler did to his political enemiesOct 01 19:31
MinceRand what he did to ukrainiansOct 01 19:31
MinceRand read up on the organization he was a member of, and what sort of regime that he served thereOct 01 19:32
MinceRof course you won't understand itOct 01 19:32
MinceRbecause if someone calls themselves "socialist", you immediately give them carte blanche to do whatever crimes against humanity they feel like doingOct 01 19:32

msb_MinceR: You have never come up with anything broadcast on RT that you have proved is untrue.  You've called it "Putin propaganda" constantly, but it doesn't matter if it's information that Putin wants people to know AS LONG AS IT'S TRUE.Oct 01 22:51
msb_MinceR: And this is an extremely vicious lie:  "<MinceR> because if someone calls themselves "socialist", you immediately give them carte blanche to do whatever crimes against humanity they feel like doing"  I have never given anyone carte blanche to commit crimes against humanity, and you can't quote me saying it because I never have.Oct 01 22:53
MinceRyou have promoted the actions of putin, stalin, kadhafi, etc.Oct 01 22:54
msb_I have promoted only CERTAIN actions of those people -- none that were crimes against humanity.Oct 01 22:55
MinceRnone that you recognize as crimes against humanity, that isOct 01 22:56
MinceRalso, you seem to fail to recognize that people you condemn to be ruled by dictators you favor will not only be subject of the dictators' actions that you cherry-pickOct 01 22:57
msb_Although I am not familiar with Gaddafi having done anything wrong,Oct 01 22:57
MinceRthey will be affected by any actions the dictators choose to affect them withOct 01 22:57
MinceRthere's nothing wrong with running a dictatorship, right?Oct 01 22:57
msb_Of course there is.Oct 01 22:58
MinceRand yet you spare no day to advertise dictatorships hereOct 01 22:58
MinceRand no day goes by that you do not advocate that more territories to be annexed to dictatorships, and more people to be subjected to their ruleOct 01 22:58
MinceRbut apparently never yourselfOct 01 22:58
msb_As I said very explicitly, the only territories that should be annexed by Russia are those whose people overwhelmingly wish to be.  No one else.Oct 01 22:59
MinceRbut as a standard for such, you accept an unconstitutional, fraudulent charade of a "referendum" at gunpoint, with no international observers and no accountabilityOct 01 23:00

MinceRi'm not the one campaigning for subjecting as many people as possible to the rule of certain fascist dictatorshipsOct 01 23:06
msb_Albert Ellis's book helped me a lot when I was young.Oct 01 23:06
MinceRnot enough, apparentlyOct 01 23:06
msb_I'll say it again, for the third time: the only people who should be part of the Russian Federation are people who want to be.Oct 01 23:07
MinceRbut you don't really care if they want to beOct 01 23:08
msb_If I didn't care, I wouldn't say it.Oct 01 23:08
MinceRif you did, you would have researched about the guarantees for that alleged "referendum"'s correct conductionOct 01 23:08
MinceRinstead of just parroting the lies of the government that was its organizer and beneficiaryOct 01 23:08
msb_You have never given evidence that guns were held on people while they were secretly voting.Oct 01 23:08
MinceRwe've gone over it at least twice, and it's pointless to try againOct 01 23:09
MinceRyou obviously have no idea how democracy worksOct 01 23:09
MinceRi bet you also fall for the charades the ussr and its puppet states engaged in to pretend they were democraticOct 01 23:09
msb_Again, I ask you to prove your claim, and you respond with personal insults instead.Oct 01 23:09
MinceRlike "elections" where the Party decided who may or may not runOct 01 23:10
MinceRi have proven it and you ignored itOct 01 23:10
MinceRyou keep trying to waste everybody's timeOct 01 23:10
MinceRi wonder what putler hopes to gain from thatOct 01 23:10
msb_And now you are changing the subject, because you can't give evidence.Oct 01 23:10
msb_One of the US propaganda sites you cited even said that Putin conducted a  private opinion poll in Crimea before the referendum was held, and it was overwhelmingly for annexation,Oct 01 23:11
MinceRagain, who said the poll was for annexation, and with what sampleOct 01 23:12
MinceRyou confuse informal polls with referendaOct 01 23:12
MinceRjust like fideszOct 01 23:12
MinceRyou lack the most basic training in the foundations of modern democracyOct 01 23:12
msb_The US propaganda page that you linked to.Oct 01 23:12
MinceRif it's a "us propaganda page", at most it can report what others saidOct 01 23:12
MinceRor do you think the US had observers in putler's informal poll?Oct 01 23:13
msb_Again, I ask you to prove your claim, and you respond with personal insults instead.Oct 01 23:13
MinceRsounds like something russia would love to report on...Oct 01 23:13
MinceRunless of course they turn up something uncomfortable to russiaOct 01 23:13
msb_Prove that the referendum was coerced by men with guns in the polling booths.Oct 01 23:13
MinceRit's really sad that the usa has failed to teach its own citizens how democracy worksOct 01 23:13
msb_Prove that the referendum was coerced by men with guns in the polling booths.Oct 01 23:14
MinceReven if i paste evidence, you'll dismiss it as us propagandaOct 01 23:15
msb_And prove that RT has said something untrue.Oct 01 23:15
MinceRyour circular reasoning serves only wasting everybody's timeOct 01 23:16
msb_Do it and we'll see.Oct 01 23:16
msb_Lame excuse for being unable to cite any proof.Oct 01 23:16
MinceRdo you deny that crimea was under military occupation when the "poll" took place?Oct 01 23:17
MinceRseriously?Oct 01 23:17
msb_No I don't,Oct 01 23:17
MinceRthen what the hell are you talking about?Oct 01 23:17
MinceRyou not only do not understand democracy, you don't even understand how pressuring and threatening people works?Oct 01 23:18
msb_But I deny that the occupation would affect the result of a _secret_ ballot, because people could still vote as they pleased, because no one would know how they voted.Oct 01 23:18
MinceRthe only reason no one would know how they voted is that the counts are entirely faked by the russians.Oct 01 23:18
msb_More personal attacks.Oct 01 23:18
MinceRjust like in russia.Oct 01 23:18
msb_And how do you know that?Oct 01 23:19
MinceRi've heard enough about how countries like russia conduct their business.Oct 01 23:19
MinceRthey used to be pretty flippant about it too.Oct 01 23:19
msb_You seem to be unable to distinguish your paranoid fantasies from facts. Oct 01 23:19
MinceR"It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything." -- StalinOct 01 23:20
MinceRis this a paranoid fantasy too?Oct 01 23:20
msb_You think that your paranoid fantasies _are_ facts.Oct 01 23:20
MinceRno, that's youOct 01 23:20
msb_Stalin is long dead.Oct 01 23:20
MinceRhis cause isn't, thoughOct 01 23:20
msb_What cause is that?Oct 01 23:20
MinceRthat of brutally oppressing peopleOct 01 23:21
MinceRand using them as slaves to the stateOct 01 23:21
msb_xrevan86 has not reported seeing any brutal oppression in Russia.Oct 01 23:21
MinceRhas anyone asked him?Oct 01 23:21
msb_I have.Oct 01 23:21
MinceRwhat did he say?Oct 01 23:21
msb_He hasn't.Oct 01 23:22
msb_And he works for a living.  He's not a slave.Oct 01 23:22
MinceRand from silence you deduce that everything is a-ok thereOct 01 23:22
MinceRyou believe the usa to be worse than russia, the latter you believe to be a well-working democracyOct 01 23:22
MinceRthat you supportOct 01 23:22
MinceRso why don't you move there?Oct 01 23:22
msb_No, Putin is somewhat authoritarian, but isn't doing terrible harm by it.Oct 01 23:23
MinceRwhy don't you volunteer for the russian army so you can go kill ukrainians and chechens and estonians?Oct 01 23:23
MinceR"somewhat authoritarian"?Oct 01 23:23
MinceRand being authoritarian isn't doing terrible harm?Oct 01 23:23
MinceRare you out of your mind?Oct 01 23:23
msb_I have never said I believe Russia to be a well-working democracyOct 01 23:23
MinceRyou merely pretend it is and imply it isOct 01 23:23
msb_Never.Oct 01 23:24
MinceRapparently you believe if you don't explicitly voice your thoughts, they can't be pointed out and criticized?Oct 01 23:24
msb_If I don't voice my thoughts, there's no way for you to know what they are.Oct 01 23:25
MinceRyeah, it isn't like something called "logic" existsOct 01 23:25
msb_But I do voice them, explicitly.Oct 01 23:25
MinceRat least in the mind of a putin supporter, anywayOct 01 23:25
msb_As I've said many times, I only support SOME things that Putin does, not ALL.Oct 01 23:25
<--jgay has quit (Quit: Happy Hacking. Goodbye.)Oct 01 23:25
MinceRand how do you propose crimeans to be subjected only to SOME things that putin does under russian rule?Oct 01 23:26
msb_But you keep ignoring that and lying about me.Oct 01 23:26
MinceRyou're either lying about your own motives or have failed to think anything through.Oct 01 23:26
msb_The Crimeans chose to be under Russian rule rather than Nazi rule.Oct 01 23:26
MinceRno, they did not choose to be under russian ruleOct 01 23:27
MinceRand ukrainian rule isn't as nazi as russian rule is.Oct 01 23:27
msb_Just like the 700,000 Ukrainian refugees who fled to Russia.Oct 01 23:27
MinceRthe refugees the russian government reportedOct 01 23:27
MinceRand represented with actorsOct 01 23:27
MinceRbut you believe that too because you love authoritarianism so muchOct 01 23:27
msb_The Ukrainian government was placed in power by violence by the Nazi Right-Sector and Svoboda armies.  And its policies are partly dictated by them.Oct 01 23:28
MinceRin very small partOct 01 23:28
MinceRmeanwhile russian policies are entirely dictated by power-mad fascist christian fundamentalist nationalistsOct 01 23:29
msb_MinceR: STOP LYING ABOUT ME!  I do not love authoritarianism at all.Oct 01 23:29
MinceRalso, ex-kgb membersOct 01 23:29
MinceRyeah, you do not love authoritarianism, you merely want as many people to be subjected to it as possibleOct 01 23:29
MinceRand you are offended if it's criticized in any wayOct 01 23:29

MinceRif you don't want to be seen as promoting authoritarianism, perhaps you should stop promoting it.Oct 01 23:31
MinceRso they're radical authoritarian nationalists and yet you deny that they're fascistsOct 01 23:32
MinceRi wonder whyOct 01 23:32
MinceRand threatening the world with nuclear annihilation is not power-mad to you at all.Oct 01 23:32
MinceRi'm sure if the usa was doing the same you'd be foaming at the mouthOct 01 23:33
MinceRunless they first named themselves "socialist" firstOct 01 23:33
MinceRdo you also deny that putin centralized control over all of the russian state and most (if not all) of the russian economy?Oct 01 23:33
MinceRor have you merely failed to even consider that?Oct 01 23:33
msb_I never said that Putin is radical, and his authoritarianism is minor.  Nationalist means that he works for the benefit of the Russian Federation,Oct 01 23:35
msb_None of that amounts to fascism.Oct 01 23:35

MinceRthe US isn't threatening to employ nuclear weapons as a response to anything other than an imminent nuclear threatOct 01 23:36

MinceRhe has centralized control over its economyOct 01 23:37
MinceRhe's strongly authoritarian, brutally suppressing freedom of speechOct 01 23:37

MinceRthis also covers "national socialism", of courseOct 01 23:40
msb_Yes.  Persecuting Pussy Riot was wrong.  Oct 01 23:40

MinceRyet here you are, attacking this phantasm you call "capitalism"Oct 01 23:57

schestowitznot 95%Oct 02 07:07
schestowitznot anymoreOct 02 07:07
schestowitzamonobeax: no, they don't have an obligation to tell investors thatOct 02 07:07
amonobeaxnot obligation, ok, but who will invest into your company without data...Oct 02 07:08
amonobeaxthat's too dumb even for M$Oct 02 07:08
amonobeaxI heard it from a couple of tech sitesOct 02 07:09
msb_Did MS automatically without charge upgrade all copies of windows 8 to windows 10?Oct 02 07:09
amonobeaxI know Windows is auto downloading win10Oct 02 07:10
amonobeaxbut auto installing idkOct 02 07:10
msb_I thought I saw that somewhere.Oct 02 07:10
amonobeaxbut it's 1 step from it reallyOct 02 07:10
amonobeaxmaybe you're right thenOct 02 07:10
msb_If they include those automatic copies of w10, they can claim huge success even though nobody really wanted it.Oct 02 07:11
amonobeaxtrueOct 02 07:11
amonobeaxI'm curious about what are they going to do when they have a big chunk of the market share on win10Oct 02 07:12
msb_Anyhow, success for microsoft is injury to humanity.Oct 02 07:12
amonobeaxcause then they'll start closing the trapOct 02 07:12
msb_But sadly, the same is true for systemd.Oct 02 07:12
amonobeaxsry for my ignoranceOct 02 07:13
amonobeaxdon't even know what this isOct 02 07:13
schestowitzmicrosoft can count downloadsOct 02 07:13
schestowitzas in, how many PCs they 'threw' the blob atOct 02 07:13
schestowitzbut anyway, it all boils down to definitionsOct 02 07:13
schestowitzthat's how Microsoft always games the numbersOct 02 07:14
schestowitzlike claiming an enterprise eligible to 100 Vista 7 installs counts as "100 sales"Oct 02 07:14
schestowitzas they did at the timeOct 02 07:14
schestowitzthey try to sell people the illusion that everyone is movin gOct 02 07:14
schestowitzinvoking cattle effectOct 02 07:14
msb_It's a huge blob of software from Red Hat that violates Unix/Linux design/engineering principles, and which, despite being unnecessary, has been adopted by most major Linux distributions. Oct 02 07:14
schestowitzand then some people foolishly move/changeOct 02 07:14
schestowitzself-fulfilling prophecies.Oct 02 07:15
amonobeaxawww I heard about it I guess msb_ Oct 02 07:15
amonobeaxIf it's clearly harmful why distros are embracing it ?Oct 02 07:15
msb_The US govt is RedHat's biggest customer.  Systemd may in the future provide a backdoor for the US govt to kill all Linux computers that use it.Oct 02 07:16
amonobeaxschestowitz: what is really bothering me right now is the fact that M$ could be stealing opensource codeOct 02 07:16
schestowitzthe distro they made?Oct 02 07:16
amonobeaxand we can't do shit cause they are close sourcedOct 02 07:16
msb_That's a big question.  We haven't been able to figure out the answer.Oct 02 07:16

amonobeaxI guess I saw a video in which Linus himself say systemd was okOct 02 07:21
amonobeaxso I really don't know what to thinkOct 02 07:21
msb_All the evil that's been going on in the world.  The US govt destr0ying half a dozen nations and murdering millions.  There's no limit to what it may be doing secretly.Oct 02 07:21
msb_Linus' concern is only the kernel, and systemd is outside the kernel.Oct 02 07:22
amonobeaxstill this was his opinion on the matterOct 02 07:22
amonobeaxI guess it was on a Debian thingyOct 02 07:22
msb_Still you would think that he and Richard Stallman would have spoken out against it.  But they haven't.Oct 02 07:23
msb_People are working on a Debian variant called Devuan without systemd, but with up-to-date application and system software.Oct 02 07:24
msb_It's our best hope.Oct 02 07:24
amonobeaxI seeOct 02 07:24
amonobeaxisn't systemd switchable in most distros?Oct 02 07:25
msb_No.  Not in any.Oct 02 07:25
msb_The initialization setup with and without it are very different.Oct 02 07:26
schestowitzpeople are afraid of criticising systemd nowOct 02 07:26
schestowitzit's stigmatisied with homophobia and other things nowOct 02 07:26
amonobeaxwhatOct 02 07:27
schestowitzeven with mono there was no such stigmaOct 02 07:27
amonobeaxhomophobia, whyOct 02 07:27
schestowitzthe only stigma was "anti-Microsoft"Oct 02 07:27
schestowitzbecause LP is a homosexualOct 02 07:27
amonobeaxomg...Oct 02 07:27
schestowitzand some people trolled him over systemd in an abusive, personal fashionOct 02 07:27
msb_First time I've heard that!Oct 02 07:27
amonobeaxI'm no tech guyOct 02 07:28
schestowitzso if you don't like systemd -> you hate LP -> you're harassing homosexualsOct 02 07:28
amonobeaxso swtching defaults is really painful for meOct 02 07:28
amonobeaxI'll keep track on things thoOct 02 07:28

msb_MinceR: I want to ask you a question.  You are constantly posting about how you think Putin is going to enslave and blow up the whole world.  But the actual _actions_ of the US since 2001 of destr0ying four nations by bombing and strafing, murdering millions of people, and arming tens of thousands of psychopath jihadis, creating ISIL -- that doesn't seem to bother you at all.  Why is that?Oct 02 11:03
MinceRyou have yet to prove that the US is responsible for these things. they've done plenty of real evil that's worth discussing hereOct 02 11:03
MinceRand is more relevant to this channelOct 02 11:04
MinceRinstead you focus on conspiracy theories and assume that since the US is evil and putin is opposed to it, he must be goodOct 02 11:04
MinceR(which does not follow)Oct 02 11:04
msb_MinceR: You ignored my question.  You constantly post here claims about what Putin will do in the future.  So you think that's relevant.  Are  you now saying that you don't believe that the US has invaded and destr0yed Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and Syria?Oct 02 11:07

MinceRafaik kadhafi and the ISIL are not the USOct 02 11:14
MinceRand afaik the successor regimes were also not the USOct 02 11:14
msb_Gaddafi didn't harm Libya.  He gave the people the highest standard of living of any nation in Africa.  Reagan armed and financed the Mujahideen, which became Al-Qaeda, which became ISIL.  ISIL is armed with US weapons from the jihadis that the US trained as its proxies, and who defected to ISIL.Oct 02 11:18
msb_The successor regimes controlled those nations after the US soldiers and weapons bombed and destr0yed their infrastructure and murdered millions of their people.Oct 02 11:20

MinceRso, science is bullshit nowOct 02 11:44
MinceRbecause it gainsays what people who know nothing about contrails made upOct 02 11:44
MinceR(which is far more complicated than the truth)Oct 02 11:44
MinceRit's a familiar patternOct 02 11:44
MinceRmaking up overcomplicated bullshit about stuff people don't understand, and then dismissing anything that falsifies themOct 02 11:44
MinceRit's usually called religionOct 02 11:45
msb_Well, MinceR, you've certainly let it all hang out in this conversation.  It's a keeper!Oct 02 11:46
MinceRas usual, conversing with you is a waste of timeOct 02 11:46
msb_It's like talking to someone who, from psychosis or post-hypnotic suggestion, believes they're Napoleon, and trying to convince them that they're not.  They ignore the questions, claim they've already answered them, refuse to access data proving they're not Napoleon, give BS answers that they insist answer the questions but don't.  Oct 02 11:55
MinceRyes, talking to you is exactly like thatOct 02 11:57
