schestowitz-TR | now you can only "stream' | Sep 06 00:09 |
schestowitz-TR | i.e. watch once | Sep 06 00:09 |
schestowitz-TR | so it's bad value for money | Sep 06 00:09 |
activelow | so i watched them on TV instead, and how did I HATE the commercials in between, when the broadcasters pushed the "loudness war" to maximum with them. | Sep 06 00:10 |
schestowitz-TR | TV is still mostly noise | Sep 06 00:10 |

activelow | schestowitz-TR: the "loudness war" alone often is reason enough to reject all claims from the music industry, when their productions are not BS1770 or EBU compliant | Sep 06 00:10 |
schestowitz-TR | as PCs are more programmable and customisable than TVs | Sep 06 00:11 |
activelow | most of what the music industry is selling is a threat to public health | Sep 06 00:11 |
schestowitz-TR | star trek next gen had nice ambiance to it | Sep 06 00:12 |
schestowitz-TR | also long, so a good way to pass time | Sep 06 00:12 |

techrights-news | The good news? #freesw is winning (growing usage, more companies/govs/people defend on it). The bad news? Corporations are working busily and overtime to dilute or water down its freedom. Optimists' stance: we just need to persevere and fight back. Pessimists: it's too later. #github killed freedom. #microsoft | Sep 06 09:29 |
techrights-news | In parallel to the fight for #freesw or #softwareFreedom we should also combat the #wwww oligarchies/oligopolies, either by working to replace parts of the WWW or decentralising the network; power consolidation is achieved not only by #ProprietarySoftware (today's WWW is #openwashing and DRM with patents on top) | Sep 06 09:32 |
techrights-news | Many people and companies wrongly assume that "code available on Github" is "open source" or #freesw -- perhaps conveniently ignoring the simple fact that #github itself is #proprietarySoftware and it's controlled by the NSA and #microsoft -- which STILL actively fights against developers to herd them into proprietary traps!!

schestowitz-TR | you could boot up a kernel | Sep 06 13:03 |

schestowitz-TR | activelow: I saw some more mentions of it last week | Sep 06 16:32 |
schestowitz-TR | it is still circulation | Sep 06 16:32 |
schestowitz-TR | but yes, I am not sure what to make of it | Sep 06 16:32 |
schestowitz-TR | I used programmable boards ages ago | Sep 06 16:32 |
schestowitz-TR | but not Linux | Sep 06 16:32 |
schestowitz-TR | they were xilinx, though the progrmming end ran on redhat linux (before fedora existed) | Sep 06 16:33 |
schestowitz-TR | I share your goals of hardware freedom, but it's even a higher challenge than s/w freedom | Sep 06 16:33 |
schestowitz-TR | programmable boards cannot be audited at the deeper levels | Sep 06 16:33 |

schestowitz-TR | however, you could in theory so of 'virtualise; your designs on them | Sep 06 16:34 |
schestowitz-TR | performance would be poor, but at least you have at gate level control over what you think it is programmed to run | Sep 06 16:34 |
activelow | fuzixOS realm and developement tooling isn't hardware, but anyway, it is the same criteria and reasoning to arrive at z80 UZI instead of | Sep 06 16:34 |
schestowitz-TR | at one point, after testing on it, you can share designs on the Net | Sep 06 16:35 |
activelow | what was shown | Sep 06 16:35 |
schestowitz-TR | if many people improve the designs they can crowdfund mass production | Sep 06 16:35 |
schestowitz-TR | you to some factory in the east: I run this on the fpga, MAKE ME THIS, all the way bottom-up from the core | Sep 06 16:36 |
MinceR | how do you make sure they don't put a backdoor in it? | Sep 06 16:36 |
schestowitz-TR | that's a know issue | Sep 06 16:36 |
schestowitz-TR | the manufacturing | Sep 06 16:36 |
schestowitz-TR | the West would do that too | Sep 06 16:37 |
schestowitz-TR | it is almost circular because the fabs also have makers | Sep 06 16:37 |
MinceR | i know, but that doesn't eliminate the backdoors | Sep 06 16:37 |
schestowitz-TR | the thing is, to run an irc clients we don't need 32 cores at 3ghz | Sep 06 16:37 |
schestowitz-TR | so now we can worry less and make decent cpus with very fine fab process, like 7micrometer | Sep 06 16:38 |
schestowitz-TR | you take one "ok" core, make 1000 of it | Sep 06 16:38 |
schestowitz-TR | that can bre enough for browsing, communication etc. | Sep 06 16:38 |
schestowitz-TR | MinceR: maybe you are the back door, too | Sep 06 16:39 |
schestowitz-TR | but we expect to start with >zero trust | Sep 06 16:39 |
MinceR | lol | Sep 06 16:39 |
schestowitz-TR | last month microsoft started name-dropping "zero trust" | Sep 06 16:40 |
schestowitz-TR | it trusts the nsa | Sep 06 16:40 |
schestowitz-TR | it even snitches to it about back doors | Sep 06 16:40 |

DaemonFC | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/scottish-news/7520849/police-scotland-gaelic-questions-sexuality-hayfever/ | Sep 06 18:06 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.thescottishsun.co.uk | Police Scotland's bizarre survey on Gaelic language push asks the public their sexuality or if they have hay fever | Sep 06 18:06 | |
DaemonFC | The US Census for 2020 didn't ask whether you were gay or bisexual or anything. It asked if you were married and whether your spouse was male or female. | Sep 06 18:06 |
DaemonFC | So the only thing that they would be able to gather is what percentage of marriages or to people of the same gender. | Sep 06 18:07 |
DaemonFC | Like they had to ask for legal reasons because same-sex marriage is a legal option, but they really really don't want good statistics on what percentage of the public is gay. | Sep 06 18:08 |
DaemonFC | So now another 10 years will go by where the federal government and conservatives and lawmakers can say it's a small band of perverts, | Sep 06 18:08 |
DaemonFC | It's a different sort of person who gets married vs who doesn't, even now, regardless. It used to be that if someone wasn't married in their 30s it was "suspicious". | Sep 06 18:09 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, Again that takes us back to conservatives and individualism. | Sep 06 18:10 |
DaemonFC | They're as responsible for ruining the alleged social contract as anyone. | Sep 06 18:10 |
DaemonFC | Once you start thinking "Having kids isn't good for me, so you guys have fun with that!" you start eschewing other "responsibilities and duties", and then they panic that few people get married. | Sep 06 18:11 |
DaemonFC | Panicking and offering straight up cash bribes isn't going to solve anything. | Sep 06 18:12 |
MinceR | i'd expect fascists to go after bisexuals the same way they'd treat homosexuals anyway | Sep 06 18:12 |
MinceR | "they're not like me therefore they must die" | Sep 06 18:12 |
DaemonFC | It's not just LGBT that Christians are panicking about after foisting individualist propaganda on the public from the 1980s onward. | Sep 06 18:14 |
DaemonFC | It's people who don't marry, don't have kids, and single parents. | Sep 06 18:14 |
DaemonFC | Which are the result of the propaganda just as much as the fact that being gay and out of the closet is. | Sep 06 18:14 |
DaemonFC | They opened this whole Pandora's Box of theirs with this Ayn Rand religion they loosed on us as a justification for the tax cuts for the rich and safety net cuts. | Sep 06 18:15 |
DaemonFC | Now the results are in. | Sep 06 18:15 |
DaemonFC | And mom was like "They should just get two jobs." I said, "From where? The Bureau of Labor Statistics, which is the federal government, says there are 6 million fewer job openings than March 2020, and in an economy that needs 3 million more than existed then just to stay level.". | Sep 06 18:16 |

DaemonFC | Mom said "Dollar General is hiring.". | Sep 06 18:18 |
DaemonFC | I said, "Yeah, and I just read an article about why a woman quit Dollar General. She said they were giving people 9 hours a week at $8.75 an hour.". | Sep 06 18:18 |
DaemonFC | "That's about $60 a week after tax.". | Sep 06 18:18 |
DaemonFC | I mean, the only reason to sign up for a lot of these entry level openings, and 9 hours a week counts as an opening in the "jobs report", is so you can go down and apply for medical and food stamps. | Sep 06 18:21 |
DaemonFC | She noted that some of the factories paid over $20 an hour and even gave up on drug testing people and can't find help. | Sep 06 18:22 |
DaemonFC | Instead of exploring all of the possible reasons, she concluded that nobody wanted to work there. | Sep 06 18:23 |
DaemonFC | One of the possible reasons include, off the top of my head, that the high schools are putting out people who can't do basic math, I mean we're talking about addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, with a diploma. | Sep 06 18:24 |

DaemonFC | MinceR, I even had one of them put me on a scale to see how much I weighed, back in 2004. | Sep 06 18:26 |
DaemonFC | Maybe next they'll want to check your teeth. | Sep 06 18:26 |
DaemonFC | "The dignity of work!" -Republicans | Sep 06 18:27 |
DaemonFC | We both know that there are people who are overweight who would do fine there because they move from one bin to the next getting their stuff, and people who weigh "the right amount" who will spend their entire shift goofing off. | Sep 06 18:28 |
DaemonFC | I don't see how weighing people is even legal under the ADA. | Sep 06 18:28 |
DaemonFC | There's no part about the hiring process that screams dignity to me. | Sep 06 18:29 |
DaemonFC | First they comb over your court records without caring if there's a perfectly good explanation. Then they make you pee in a bottle, assuming everyone is addicted to drugs. Then you get weighed. Then they go "Okay stupid, let's see if you really should have passed 4th grade.". | Sep 06 18:30 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, Carlin said the politicians should run on one promise. "Good luck. You're on your own!". | Sep 06 18:32 |

psydruid | my uncle returned 2 Lenovo laptops because we couldn't get any Linux distribution running on them | Sep 06 19:41 |
psydruid | so I've definitely experienced it too | Sep 06 19:42 |
DaemonFC | "Let me make my position clear, that Lenovo is lying through their teeth just like they did with Superfish malware incident. They lied until they couldn't lie anymore. Linux should not have to support the RAID mode because the mode should be able to be changed to AHCI, which is fully compatible with Linux, by the user in about 20 seconds." | Sep 06 19:43 |
DaemonFC | And that's exactly how the BIOS update to the Windows model of the laptop I'm on now supports Linux. | Sep 06 19:44 |
DaemonFC | The Windows model shipped with no Linux support and they bumped the BIOS a month later to allow "Ubuntu compatibility". | Sep 06 19:44 |
DaemonFC | It's in the release notes, though I doubt you can find them now because they release BIOS updates so often. | Sep 06 19:44 |
DaemonFC | They can't reliably pick a lane as to how bright each brightness setting should be or how your function keys should work (one update reversed what happens when you hold Fn down), or how bright your keyboard backlight should be, and they claim that they fixed at least two dozen CVEs along the way. | Sep 06 19:45 |

activelow | to prepare for the worst, gnu/linux should think of some FPGA deployments and adapt their resource requirements accordingly | Sep 06 19:57 |
activelow | meaning, FPGA boards typically offer alot less resources, maybe 256MiB RAM, single core clocked at 100MHz and similar | Sep 06 19:57 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz, Mom was talking about her friend in North Carolina who was spending irresponsibly and teetering on bankruptcy. | Sep 06 20:09 |
DaemonFC | We were talking about how there are exceptions to every rule. | Sep 06 20:09 |
DaemonFC | She married this man who had a huge amount of money sitting in his savings account and she passed the stack of unpaid bills over after they got married and he sent out checks and then had her cut up her cards and call to cancel them. | Sep 06 20:10 |
DaemonFC | Then her kids came in and started wanting a bunch of Apple garbage. | Sep 06 20:10 |
DaemonFC | He said, "There's a new sheriff in town, boys!". | Sep 06 20:10 |
DaemonFC | They're still married and it's been like 15 years or something now. Maybe longer. | Sep 06 20:13 |
DaemonFC | No more debt since then. | Sep 06 20:13 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, I was talking to the guy at the T-Mobile store. He asked why I had overpaid to get an account credit. I said, "Well, two reasons. I like to make sure I don't need to worry about bills for a while and I was getting some extra credit card points before my Discover Card double points for your first year promo ends.". | Sep 06 20:14 |
DaemonFC | He's like "That's not how you build credit though. They don't care if you have a credit on your phone account.". | Sep 06 20:15 |
DaemonFC | I said, "Actually, Discover does like when you run large transactions through your cards. Most people who get approved for higher limits were using what the company already gave them at least occasionally. They turn down people who don't. Higher limits do raise your credit scores.". | Sep 06 20:15 |
DaemonFC | "On the other hand, account reviews go over people who have a large limit and never use anything close to it, and you could see your limit cut.". | Sep 06 20:16 |
DaemonFC | "They don't tell you they're doing an account review. It's usually not even a person who does them. It's a computer program.". | Sep 06 20:17 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, The stupid setup instructions for this T-Mobile trashcan modem (Nokia) don't go into particulars about how to optimize your connection and check for specific signal levels. | Sep 06 20:29 |
DaemonFC | I figured out how to get it to tell me the raw numbers and for both 4G LTE and 5G signals. It connects to both, apparently. | Sep 06 20:30 |
DaemonFC | I found I get the best throughput by making sure the "secondary" signal, which is 5G, is the stronger of the two, so I placed the modem where it doesn't even have the option to connect to 4G, but the 5G signal is quite good. | Sep 06 20:30 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-edition.cnn.com | As China woos the Taliban, Uyghurs in Afghanistan fear for their lives - CNN | Sep 06 20:31 | |
DaemonFC | Then once you point it like that and use some tinfoil to make sure the 4G signal is unusable, it's really fast. | Sep 06 20:31 |
DaemonFC | I'm currently BitTorrenting at 6 MB/second up from like 1 when the 4G signal was coming through as well. | Sep 06 20:31 |
DaemonFC | So it has some sort of dual antenna system in there and prefers the 4G signal if it's coming in stronger, even though it has less bandwidth. | Sep 06 20:32 |
DaemonFC | But you can trick it up with some tinfoil to where it can't lock on with the 4G signal at all. | Sep 06 20:32 |

schestowitz-TR | I said late Oct. | Sep 06 21:01 |
schestowitz-TR | now they push "passports" | Sep 06 21:01 |
schestowitz-TR | for more places | Sep 06 21:01 |
schestowitz-TR | so that later they can blame lockdowns on the unvaccinated | Sep 06 21:02 |
schestowitz-TR | except kids | Sep 06 21:02 |
schestowitz-TR | and except the vaccinated who are still superspreaders | Sep 06 21:02 |

DaemonFC | So far in Illinois it's been no proof of vaccination needed to do anything, except Lollapolooza and then the vaccine cards were not inspected properly. | Sep 06 21:02 |

schestowitz-TR | you won't hold them legally accountable anyway | Sep 06 21:04 |
DaemonFC | It says my insurance was billed $20.50 for the COVID test. | Sep 06 21:04 |
schestowitz-TR | if you didn't take some jabs and died 2 weeks later on a respirator | Sep 06 21:04 |
DaemonFC | Approved $20.50. I may be billed $0. | Sep 06 21:04 |
schestowitz-TR | antibody? | Sep 06 21:04 |
schestowitz-TR | or just worthless pcr? | Sep 06 21:04 |
DaemonFC | Original was $39. | Sep 06 21:04 |
DaemonFC | So it discounted it to $20.50 as the contractual amount and paid that. | Sep 06 21:05 |
schestowitz-TR | the latter is only of use if you feel unwell or travel | Sep 06 21:05 |
DaemonFC | <schestowitz-TR> or just worthless pcr? | Sep 06 21:05 |
DaemonFC | The swab test. | Sep 06 21:05 |
schestowitz-TR | haha | Sep 06 21:05 |
schestowitz-TR | not even useful for much | Sep 06 21:05 |
schestowitz-TR | and they make a killing | Sep 06 21:05 |
schestowitz-TR | my friend who is a lecturer laughs at those | Sep 06 21:05 |

schestowitz-TR | as they qurantine regardless | Sep 06 21:06 |
DaemonFC | Approved $42.01 | Sep 06 21:06 |
DaemonFC | You May Be Billed $0.00 | Sep 06 21:06 |
schestowitz-TR | patents | Sep 06 21:06 |
schestowitz-TR | you paid patent tax | Sep 06 21:06 |
schestowitz-TR | I spoke to an assoc about it today | Sep 06 21:06 |
schestowitz-TR | how the media distracts from the patent ripoff in all this | Sep 06 21:06 |
schestowitz-TR | and plays off the 'anti-vaxx" slur | Sep 06 21:07 |
DaemonFC | So they paid for a third dose even though they warned not to do it yet. | Sep 06 21:07 |
schestowitz-TR | helps distract from the patents | Sep 06 21:07 |

schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: no wonder the wealth disparity grows so rapidly | Sep 06 21:09 |

DaemonFC | Now, however, that vital lifeline has ended. Stokes isn't worried about her ability to find a new job, but finding one that can accommodate her children's schedules will be "next to impossible," she says. Child care in the Detroit suburb where she lives is severely limited, she said, and the nanny she trusted to pick up the kids in the afternoon prior to the pandemic is no longer available. | Sep 06 21:19 |
DaemonFC | LOL | Sep 06 21:19 |
DaemonFC | "I could work, but I had kids and now I'm fucked." | Sep 06 21:19 |

DaemonFC | <schestowitz> but they didn't plan for this kind of disaster | Sep 06 21:21 |

DaemonFC | Poor people have kids and apparently don't notice that recessions happen all the time. | Sep 06 21:21 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz, The state never tells anyone the truth, and even if it did, it wouldn't feel obligated by it tomorrow. | Sep 06 21:28 |

DaemonFC | The state promises "Hey, single ladies in the house say YEAH!!!!" with the food stamps and the unlimited cash welfare.. | Sep 06 21:31 |
DaemonFC | Then in 1996 the Republicans and Bill Clinton get together and get rid of the cash and impose work requirements on the food. | Sep 06 21:31 |
XRevan86 | gustaf: nationalist.chat | Sep 06 21:32 |
DaemonFC | The state said, "Hey, don't worry. If you're poor we'll find you an affordable house with public housing.", then black people moved in in there were bullets flying through the walls and snipers on the roof. | Sep 06 21:32 |
DaemonFC | So they tore it down as a disaster, and said "If you behave, you can have some vouchers.", and then they limited the vouchers to where the waiting list hits 5 years and closes. | Sep 06 21:32 |
DaemonFC | And half the landlords don't want to maintain the property they rent, so don't even take them. | Sep 06 21:33 |
DaemonFC | When you have an open ended welfare program, this sort of thing happens. | Sep 06 21:33 |
DaemonFC | The bad actors move in, tear the shit out of it, have 9 kids hanging off them because there's no reason not to when Big Daddy Government will pay for them all. | Sep 06 21:34 |
DaemonFC | Then everyone has to suffer. | Sep 06 21:34 |
DaemonFC | If you have one kid, you're ruined. | Sep 06 21:34 |
DaemonFC | If it was a mistake and you won't do it again and you just need a little help, nobody cares. Go away. | Sep 06 21:34 |
DaemonFC | Having kids is a liability with no welfare programs, because the kids won't earn any money but somewhere along the next 18 years, you need to find hundreds of thousands of dollars that may be impossible to earn. | Sep 06 21:35 |
DaemonFC | My mom didn't even want to hear about OnlyFans and how those single moms were saying they were selling lewd pictures of themselves as a side hustle because it was either impossible to earn enough through work, or to find a second or third job. | Sep 06 21:36 |
DaemonFC | The state has, or will, abandon(ed) us all, and the more ways in which you need it, the more exposed you are when the right comes in and shuts the program down. | Sep 06 21:37 |

schestowitz | DaemonFC: wow, those "apps" things get wicked | Sep 06 21:39 |

schestowitz | my dad keeps telling how disgusted he is by all this tinder and grindr and stuff | Sep 06 21:40 |

schestowitz | and back in the old days you dated for a long time before even kissing | Sep 06 21:40 |
schestowitz | let alone sexual things | Sep 06 21:40 |
schestowitz | society is becoming rather frustrating... | Sep 06 21:40 |
DaemonFC | Yes, porn as a "side hustle" for people trying to earn to buy food for their family has really taken off and I expect that this will get even worse now that Biden is allowing all of the housing programs and unemployment to stop. | Sep 06 21:40 |
DaemonFC | Next up, back to paying those student loans, deadbeat! | Sep 06 21:41 |
schestowitz | I only found out about this OnlyFans thing when there was sanctions against it | Sep 06 21:41 |
schestowitz | I knew nothing about OnlyFans beore that | Sep 06 21:41 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: in the UK there was a crisis of landlord getting sex from tenants | Sep 06 21:41 |
schestowitz | not a new issue | Sep 06 21:41 |
schestowitz | except it became an epidemic | Sep 06 21:41 |
schestowitz | basically people buying many houses to use like brothels | Sep 06 21:42 |
schestowitz | you can imagine how they choose who to rent to | Sep 06 21:42 |
schestowitz | looking them up and down | Sep 06 21:42 |
schestowitz | "yes, ok, well... see you later" | Sep 06 21:42 |
DaemonFC | Well, what this will all lead to eventually is a glut of porn. | Sep 06 21:43 |
DaemonFC | Where it will pay less and less because it becomes diluted with so many people trying it in order to get some extra cash. | Sep 06 21:44 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, It's not just the UK where landlords were demanding sex from female tenants for rent. Chicago was investigating hundreds of such complaints, and that was just months into the pandemic. | Sep 06 21:44 |
schestowitz | one of our clients had a submission form for this... to report landlords | Sep 06 21:45 |

schestowitz-TR | Ariadne: good news. Legal action from Spain against EPO and EU, using our reporting. | Sep 06 21:51 |
XRevan86 | It looks like channels in Matrix are permanent. | Sep 06 21:51 |
XRevan86 | And broken bifrost will haunt me indefinitely. | Sep 06 21:51 |
schestowitz-TR | is there a top-level matrix authority? | Sep 06 21:51 |
schestowitz-TR | that can remove them? | Sep 06 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | with nntp and irc there is none | Sep 06 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | each network to its own | Sep 06 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | my understanding is that with matrix there are some "god mods" | Sep 06 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | in mastodon, they try to hard-code some bans for some instances in code | Sep 06 21:52 |

schestowitz-TR | jabber can be irc-like | Sep 06 22:04 |
XRevan86 | There is now a permanent profile there associated with that event. | Sep 06 22:04 |
schestowitz-TR | is that terrible? | Sep 06 22:05 |
schestowitz-TR | I recently learned how ergo stores data | Sep 06 22:05 |
schestowitz-TR | configs are in yalm | Sep 06 22:05 |
schestowitz-TR | accounts are in flat data files with hashed | Sep 06 22:05 |
schestowitz-TR | *yaml | Sep 06 22:05 |
schestowitz-TR | and log data, like /history , are in a very simple data file | Sep 06 22:06 |
schestowitz-TR | no database or anything and it's all compact and human-readable | Sep 06 22:06 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: The amount of trash in the Matrix database is astronomical. | Sep 06 22:06 |
DaemonFC | Matrix is a lot easier to cancel someone on than IRC is. | Sep 06 22:06 |
schestowitz-TR | I needed to just make a backup, belatedly | Sep 06 22:06 |
DaemonFC | Especially now that more people use VPNs, which are a giant NAT. | Sep 06 22:06 |
schestowitz-TR | you became baronhk there | Sep 06 22:07 |
XRevan86 | And then that trash is propagated through the federation to other servers and fill up storage. | Sep 06 22:07 |
schestowitz-TR | sounds like fediverse | Sep 06 22:07 |
DaemonFC | I'm very happy that people are using some kind of VPN, even if it's Nord or Mozilla, because it is difficult to figure out the implications of permanently banning an IP address. | Sep 06 22:07 |
schestowitz-TR | it's one reason I left fediverse | Sep 06 22:07 |
schestowitz-TR | after 3 accounts were lost | Sep 06 22:07 |
schestowitz-TR | I wanted to self-host | Sep 06 22:07 |
DaemonFC | You may take out 100 or more other people on your network, and then there's no point. | Sep 06 22:07 |
schestowitz-TR | but it's very resource-intensiuve | Sep 06 22:07 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: It's nowhere near as bad in there. | Sep 06 22:07 |
schestowitz-TR | also, I reckon maintaining it would be hard | Sep 06 22:08 |
DaemonFC | If the person you banned switches to another server, then they're unbanned and 99 people try to figure out what's happened to them. | Sep 06 22:08 |
schestowitz-TR | seeing how hard a---iadne worked to keep pleroma.site running | Sep 06 22:08 |
schestowitz-TR | and then even href gave up | Sep 06 22:08 |
DaemonFC | k-lines are now pretty much useless. | Sep 06 22:08 |
DaemonFC | You can inflict a lot of collatoral damage on your network with no upside. | Sep 06 22:08 |
DaemonFC | Before VPNs became popular, they were quite an effective way to deal with someone you wanted rid of, most of the time. | Sep 06 22:09 |
schestowitz-TR | well, that and dial-up modems | Sep 06 22:09 |
schestowitz-TR | many things changed | Sep 06 22:09 |
DaemonFC | ISPs would give them an IP address they were stuck with for months or more, and you took out one IP and banned it for 6 months, you solved the problem. | Sep 06 22:09 |
schestowitz-TR | I sort of miss being offline 'by default' | Sep 06 22:09 |
schestowitz-TR | go online | Sep 06 22:09 |
schestowitz-TR | beep beep beeep modem | Sep 06 22:09 |
schestowitz-TR | check email, surf some pages, go offline | Sep 06 22:10 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, I chained together dial up modems, actually. | Sep 06 22:10 |
schestowitz-TR | write replies, back online, sent, chat a little, back offline, sleep/bed | Sep 06 22:10 |
DaemonFC | There was channel bonding software, and it turned out to be cheaper to use that and pay for a second POTS line than it was to use ISDN. | Sep 06 22:10 |
DaemonFC | ISDN got you two digital lines that were 64kbps each, but the B channel cost money the more you used it while the A channel was unlimited. | Sep 06 22:11 |
schestowitz-TR | I remember isdn was expensive | Sep 06 22:11 |
schestowitz-TR | people who worked in tech saw a need for it | Sep 06 22:11 |
schestowitz-TR | anything to speed things up a bit | Sep 06 22:11 |
schestowitz-TR | me, as a kid, no access to that | Sep 06 22:11 |
DaemonFC | As long as you had a relatively good connection to your ISP over the telephone system and disabled call waiting before dialing out, it was more stable than you might think. | Sep 06 22:11 |
schestowitz-TR | only at university I learned how to use ethernet | Sep 06 22:11 |

DaemonFC | Still on the fence about the vaccine? | Sep 06 22:16 |
schestowitz-TR | they still sell a bit in india and korea I think | Sep 06 22:16 |
schestowitz-TR | alextee: they don't push .NET as primary | Sep 06 22:16 |
schestowitz-TR | but there was a time they started doing it on the side | Sep 06 22:17 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe after the Samsung-Microsoft settlement | Sep 06 22:17 |
alextee | it's one of the 4 banners on the website | Sep 06 22:17 |
schestowitz-TR | which included Samsung pushing lots of Microsoft malware | Sep 06 22:17 |
alextee | 2 of the 4 actually | Sep 06 22:17 |
schestowitz-TR | anyway, they are irrelevant now | Sep 06 22:17 |
DaemonFC | I doubt the drop in unemployment will affect us much. Where else will these people shop but Walmart? | Sep 06 22:17 |
DaemonFC | And most of them will just break down and go back to work. | Sep 06 22:18 |
DaemonFC | Even if it's fast food or something. | Sep 06 22:18 |
schestowitz-TR | I see now, alextee | Sep 06 22:18 |
schestowitz-TR | yes, it does not look good | Sep 06 22:18 |
schestowitz-TR | signs of desperation | Sep 06 22:18 |
schestowitz-TR | I also blasted them for it like 4 years ago | Sep 06 22:18 |
schestowitz-TR | then they mostly vanished | Sep 06 22:18 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe those are way out of date | Sep 06 22:18 |
schestowitz-TR | when did they last release ide tools? | Sep 06 22:19 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, I keep saying this, but this really is my last Samsung phone unless T-Mobile does live up to their promise to get the S21 in and give it to me free after bill credit. | Sep 06 22:19 |
DaemonFC | If they'll cancel out the purchase price with a bill credit, why not? | Sep 06 22:19 |
alextee | maybe, first time I've heard of this. I just saw "tizen" OS in my matomo analytics and searched for it | Sep 06 22:19 |
schestowitz-TR | they are dead beef | Sep 06 22:19 |
DaemonFC | The quality of Samsung phones has been getting worse since the S6, although the S6 was a completely awful phone. | Sep 06 22:19 |
DaemonFC | It was a damned gas guzzler. | Sep 06 22:19 |
schestowitz-TR | like webOS, except LF still puts it on fridges | Sep 06 22:20 |
DaemonFC | The CPU was a battery hog. | Sep 06 22:20 |
DaemonFC | The S5 was a much better phone than the S6 was. | Sep 06 22:20 |
schestowitz-TR | I'm not sure if samsung puts tizenOS on many things anymore | Sep 06 22:20 |
schestowitz-TR | it's neglected, almost abandoned | Sep 06 22:20 |
alextee | DaemonFC, I use a samsung S5 (downgrade from nexus 5P) mostly because I can change the battery easily | Sep 06 22:20 |
alextee | very happy with it | Sep 06 22:20 |

techrights-news | Imagine a company so incopetent that its whole customer 'support' system is down for many days in row. Yes, #eon #eonnext for you. #npower takeover should have been BLOCKED. https://nitter.eu/NickOLeary20/status/1434919106344538117 | Sep 06 23:52 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-nitter.eu | Nick O'Leary (@NickOLeary20): "@eon_next Been trying to call and online chat with your company since last Thursday. Now being told your systems are down so call after Thursday this week. I need contact now not in a week." | nitter | Sep 06 23:52 | |
techrights-news | Can a company LEGALLY have its whole customer support system down for about a week (without, e.g., compensating clients)? https://nitter.eu/wisemamma1/status/1434905749776371718 #npower #eon #eonnext | Sep 06 23:54 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-nitter.eu | wise mamma (@wisemamma1): "Don’t bother calling them they’re claiming that their whole system is down until Friday they can’t do anything useless company😡😡😡😡🤬🤬" | nitter | Sep 06 23:54 | |
techrights-news | #eon #eonnext does not even allow you to escalate to a boss. When it does, it tells you (after 35 minutes on phone) they will phone back. And of course they don't. #npower acquisition should be been blocked. They now commandeer many people with debt-collecting gangsters and no customer support. https://nitter.eu/wisemamma1/status/1434905282463797248 | Sep 06 23:56 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-nitter.eu | wise mamma (@wisemamma1): "Not happy at all😡😡😡🤬 ridiculous this company can’t even be trusted to record a complaint accurately" | nitter | Sep 06 23:56 |
