schestowitz | "It runs fine w/ 4GB of RAM provided you set up the cache variables correctly (which the phone manufacturer/os vendor would be more than capable of setting), it just will have a small cache which is perfectly fine when you have flash for your storage. And the whole point of my post was that snapshots are built into distribution and installation of apps/OS so yeah... A user will never use zfs snapshot, the phone would do it for him." | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | "We are not talking about enabling deduplication." | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | " | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | I do, and ZFS is trash. Yea, I know you're probably going to complain and call me a troll. | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | But, if you search my history you'll see all my arguments as to why ZFS is garbage. | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | It all comes down to a shitty license and a shitty community. | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | Besides comparing ZFS to NTFS is like comparing cancer to AIDS; they aren't even in the same league of one another. Or, if you prefer car analogies it's like comparing the Veyron to a Prius. | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | " | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | "Rather than making unsubstantiated claims about ZFS being a load of crap made by terrible people with a terrible license (and no, pointing to a comment history that mentions it once outside this thread does not count), why don't you give us an example of why it's bad?" | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | "You didn't asked me, but i heard complains about the RAM usage. BTW i don't get the hype around it." | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | "RAM usage only sucks when you turn on deduplication which is an optional feature most users don't need." | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | "To me integrated volume management, snapshots and data checksumming are all fantastic features on their own. They're the reason I use BTRFS and ZFS everywhere I can. It's perfectly understandable not to care about those for your personal use, but they have huge value for many different kinds of workloads and do justify the hype." | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | "One of the uses is NTFS has one character limit and Explorer.exe has a lower one." | Feb 10 14:03 |
schestowitz | "Cunt people, cunt jobs." | Feb 10 14:05 |
schestowitz | "That was just capitalism doing its thing. Don't give credit to Apple or MS for wanting to make money and giving computing to the world in the process. If it wasn't them it would be somebody else." | Feb 10 14:05 |
schestowitz | "Yeah that is good, but they can retire now if they are causing any problem or holding things back. I don't know enough to say one way or the other. I just believe that if they are doing something harmful now, they're good actions in the past don't outweigh they're current actions." | Feb 10 14:05 |
schestowitz | " | Feb 10 14:05 |
schestowitz | It's not really an attack on open source, so much as it is a successful effort to get money out of anyone and everyone. | Feb 10 14:05 |
schestowitz | That is, it doesn't matter that GoPro was using open source. Even if they had a closed source implementation of the filesystem, Microsoft would still want the patent payments. | Feb 10 14:05 |

schestowitz | Applying common sense is the right approach. | Feb 13 09:03 |
schestowitz | Adding subtitles and making the report available to a foreign public seems to be fair use, | Feb 13 09:03 |

schestowitz | Hi, | Feb 13 09:07 |
schestowitz | I'm not an expert when it comes to fair use, but I usually go by common sense and I very much doubt they'll take action, unless it's reposted for profit rather than to highlight human rights abuses. | Feb 13 09:07 |
schestowitz | I can host the file/s if someone send that to me. I already did some editing and posted the 8-minute video in techrights (the colours didn't come out right), but no subtitles... | Feb 13 09:07 |

schestowitz | An anonymous source told us the following: | Feb 13 09:10 |
schestowitz | Many staff tried to escape from being selected as “volunteers” to meet the president. In several units, staff members took leave beforehand to avoid being on the list of available candidates for the “volunteer” selection process carried out by the line managers. That's why the administration selected many “volunteers” amongst the probationers: they could not easily refuse the offer. | Feb 13 09:10 |

schestowitz | The first comment asks about inventiveness. The EPO decides this objectively, under the Problem and Solution Approach. This Decision is on appeal from the Exam Division, so the only prior art available to the Board is that supplied by the Division. If this were on appeal from the Opposition Division, there would be better prior art from which the Board could craft an argument that the stroking>purring idea was obvious. | Feb 13 11:40 |
schestowitz | That said though, to me it seems quite cute, and not obvious, to equate mobile phone vibration with the "purring" of an on-screen cat. | Feb 13 11:40 |

schestowitz | The last time I posted a Juve translation was about a month ago and the title was different, I think. This means that a translation of the latter piece, whose headline resembles something that I said some months ago, would be useful.

schestowitz | The first comment asks about inventiveness. The EPO decides this objectively, under the Problem and Solution Approach. This Decision is on appeal from the Exam Division, so the only prior art available to the Board is that supplied by the Division. If this were on appeal from the Opposition Division, there would be better prior art from which the Board could craft an argument that the stroking>purring idea was obvious. | Feb 13 11:40 |
schestowitz | That said though, to me it seems quite cute, and not obvious, to equate mobile phone vibration with the "purring" of an on-screen cat. | Feb 13 11:40 |
