[02:03] *techrights-bot has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [02:03] schestowitz As far as I'm aware there's no gemini proxy for #twitter and it would be a simple thing to implement giving some scraping (e.g. wget/curl upon demand, then .gmi conversion -- many tools already exist for this).

[03:11] schestowitz taxi might be cheaper [03:11] DaemonFC[m] In the past week, I had to replace an outer tie rod and another wheel bearing. :/ [03:11] schestowitz just live closer to work [03:11] schestowitz cars are a PITA [03:11] schestowitz I should know, I used to drive [03:11] DaemonFC[m] Oh yeah. [03:12] schestowitz money down the drain [03:12] schestowitz and for what? [03:12] schestowitz putting a piece of tin around [03:12] schestowitz to get to worthless crap like "cinema" [03:12] schestowitz rianne and I don't say it to people casually, but... [03:12] schestowitz someone at the shop asked rianne today, the security person... [03:13] DaemonFC[m] If I move back to Chicago I'm just going to scrap the car and take the transit. [03:13] schestowitz "are you looking forward to everything reopening next week" [03:13] schestowitz and she said, no... [03:13] DaemonFC[m] The tax and rent savings up here make up for the repairs I guess. [03:13] schestowitz as it has been over a year and we got used to it [03:13] schestowitz but we work from home, family businesses got crushed around here [03:13] schestowitz so we don't speak for the majority [03:13] schestowitz we don't even miss the gym and spa anymore [03:13] schestowitz we got used to being without that [03:14] DaemonFC[m] I really don't like the reopenings because it means more risk for me. [03:14] DaemonFC[m] Minimal upside. [03:14] DaemonFC[m] People need to find inexpensive hobbies like reading books or flying a kite or enjoying sitting next to a lake. [03:14] DaemonFC[m] Not going to the shopping mall to max out the credit cards on a closet full of shoes. [03:14] DaemonFC[m] MARISOL the discount Imelda. [03:15] schestowitz when we reopen after quarantine it's still safer [03:15] schestowitz as we separated the carriers from non-carriers [03:15] schestowitz a few days later I can get my hair cut, once the congestion settles down [03:15] schestowitz weeks later it'll become less safer again as people transmit the thing again [03:16] schestowitz that's when we might terminate gym membership too, until further notice.. [03:16] DaemonFC[m] I changed over to just cutting my own hair. [03:16] MinceR same [03:16] schestowitz many people did [03:16] schestowitz and they got used to it [03:16] DaemonFC[m] It's saved me over $300 in the past 12 months. [03:16] schestowitz improved their skills at it [03:16] schestowitz or you can ask sibling/spouse [03:16] schestowitz I dyed rianne's hair on sunday [03:17] schestowitz it's easy to cut someone else's hair [03:17] schestowitz hair trimmers cost about 20 dollars unless you overpay for some fancy brand [03:17] schestowitz most barbers cost that much for one visit [03:18] DaemonFC[m] Oh, Mandy keeps his long enough that he really only needs to go 2-3 times per year. [03:18] DaemonFC[m] So $25 isn't that much of an outrage. When you need to go every month, it gets unacceptable. [03:18] schestowitz I used to go every month [03:18] schestowitz then 2-3 months [03:19] schestowitz cutting one's own hair also means being able to shower right afterwards [03:19] schestowitz to remove stray hair bits [03:19] DaemonFC[m] I doubt that things will ever be like they were before. [03:20] DaemonFC[m] But people will spend the money on something else instead. [03:20] DaemonFC[m] They always do every time the economy changes. [03:20] schestowitz who said it will be back to how it was? [03:20] DaemonFC[m] People scream what about the jobs, but cashiers..... [03:20] schestowitz after 1+ years people's patterns change [03:20] schestowitz errands, social life (real one, not FB 'social') [03:20] DaemonFC[m] Right? The focus at Walmart is having people shop for you, like Mandy does. Pays well. [03:20] DaemonFC[m] What's the difference between that and running a cash register? [03:21] schestowitz that has been like it for 20 years here [03:21] schestowitz I used to shop this way [03:21] schestowitz but you cannot get discounted food this way [03:21] DaemonFC[m] I still do my own shopping because I don't like how they do it sometimes. Either they'll leave stuff out and I can't make dinner or they make a weird substitution. [03:21] schestowitz also, picking fruit etc. limits your choice [03:22] DaemonFC[m] Yes, no markdowns if you order online. [03:22] schestowitz DaemonFC[m]: you can mark as, "don't substitute" [03:22] schestowitz or send back/reject the substitute [03:22] schestowitz markdowns are also good if you want to try new things [03:22] schestowitz that you would not otherwise take [03:23] DaemonFC[m] Damaged cans. Meat I can freeze. [03:23] schestowitz today rianne went to about 3-5 stores looking for markdowns [03:23] DaemonFC[m] I figure I save $10-12 a week at least. [03:23] schestowitz per time [03:23] schestowitz for 2 people [03:23] schestowitz depends when you go and how much you can carry at one time [03:24] schestowitz I'd only touch meat if it's discounted 75% or more [03:24] DaemonFC[m] Bouncing back from all of these car repairs and Mandy's dental bills is going to take some time. [03:24] DaemonFC[m] If we're lucky it'll only wipe out half our savings. [03:25] DaemonFC[m] I opened up a real can of worms with this car. The only thing that makes me feel better about it is mom gave it to me free because it was sitting there. [03:25] schestowitz maybe for a reason [03:25] schestowitz she passed you worms [03:25] DaemonFC[m] If I'd paid a couple thousand dollars and then had all of these issues, I'd have been pissed. [03:26] DaemonFC[m] Yeah, she had been patching it up herself for some time. [03:26] schestowitz this car was a 'free' kitten [03:26] MinceR https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diet_of_Worms [03:26] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Diet of Worms - Wikipedia [03:26] schestowitz DaemonFC[m]: the markdowns hunt is a hobby of ours [03:27] schestowitz went on a 4-hour walk Easter Friday [03:27] schestowitz found lots of markdowns on the way back home [03:27] DaemonFC[m] We tried, but it started raining on us and chased us out of the park earlier. [03:27] schestowitz lots of things we'd never have tried otherwise [03:27] schestowitz if you shop online, it takes longer to find [03:27] DaemonFC[m] Then I hit the brake pedal at a light and the ABS light came on and the pedal pulsed. (The bearing.) [03:28] DaemonFC[m] If it starts rattling around in there, the sensor doesn't get the right reading and the car disables the ABS for safety. [03:28] schestowitz ends up costing like 50 taxi trips [03:28] DaemonFC[m] But it's a warning that something seriously dangerous is happening. [03:28] schestowitz if the taxi breaks down, NotMyProblem(TM) [03:29] schestowitz they'd also be better and more aggressive drivers than you [03:29] schestowitz and if they get a ticket, their problem [03:29] DaemonFC[m] Yeah, and if they get a ticket... [03:29] MinceR more aggressive, yes. better, no. :> [03:29] DaemonFC[m] Yeah, it's on them. The fine. The insurance company getting mad. [03:29] schestowitz MinceR: depends... [03:29] schestowitz sometimes you want an aggressive one [03:29] MinceR taxi drivers do horrifyingly dangerous things here [03:29] schestowitz they get places faster [03:29] DaemonFC[m] Here too.

[03:34] schestowitz wow [03:34] schestowitz 700 a month [03:34] DaemonFC[m] schestowitz: That's a proper white elephant.

[03:35] schestowitz for a piece of tin that's a lot, times 12 months [03:35] DaemonFC[m] It's a 300-something. [03:35] schestowitz by the time she's done paying it's worth half the purchasing price [03:35] DaemonFC[m] They rolled in the "Yeah, it's a piece of shit but we'll fix it for 5 years." plan for $5,600 into the financing.

[03:37] schestowitz DaemonFC[m]: that's what makes it "luury" [03:37] schestowitz only fools who amass more money than they can usefully spend would go for that [03:37] schestowitz of feasibly spend [03:37] schestowitz I don't suppose Bezos has a use for 100 hangars with 10 Boeing 747s in each [03:38] DaemonFC[m] Or ones who get themselves into debt and then can't file bankruptcy because the court would stick them with a payment plan instead.

[14:25] DaemonFC[m] That would seem to protect Wine to the extent that the Windows APIs necessary to run any particular program are needed. [14:25] DaemonFC[m] But it does not allow for blindly copying bits that you don't need. [14:26] DaemonFC[m] ReactOS has gone further and has copied functions that they do not understand into their stand-in components. [14:27] DaemonFC[m] So whether there was direct copying from Windows or not, if they don't need a particular thing to be compatible with an actual program, then they're still at risk. [14:27] DaemonFC[m] If they did ever produce a working Windows clone and people wanted to make distributions of it, then those people would have to be cautious. [14:28] DaemonFC[m] Their FAQ mentioned that there are ways to improve the implementation of a Windows system, and that's not untrue. Microsoft is a damned litterbug. [14:28] DaemonFC[m] They leave all kinds of junk that nobody uses anymore floating around. [14:30] DaemonFC[m] Then they remove the damndest things that weren't actually hurting anything and 20 or 30 years worth of programs relied on. [14:30] DaemonFC[m] They have like 5 terminals now and none of them run DOS programs. [14:31] DaemonFC[m] cmd.exe isn't really all that useful anymore except for cmdlets that may still be out there, but who knows if they work or not?
