[03:55] highest_cubist_thrills yes, there are non-github projects. the ones getting into the fsd however, are nearly all github [03:56] highest_cubist_thrills imo there are two ways to interpret this [03:56] highest_cubist_thrills one is that the fsf / free software directory are showing favouritism to github. thats bad. [03:57] highest_cubist_thrills the other possibility is that of the projects that SHOULD matter to the fsf... theyre all github-based. [03:57] highest_cubist_thrills also bad. but in a different way. [03:58] DaemonFC Even SourceForge has git now so I mean, like, why would anyone use github? [03:58] highest_cubist_thrills in one version its the fsfs fault, and in the other version (which i find more plausble) its the state of software itself to blame [03:58] highest_cubist_thrills i dont actually blame the fsd for this. its a symptom, not a cause [03:58] highest_cubist_thrills but if things arent actually bad, then the fsf is showing favoritism to github.

[04:09] highest_cubist_thrills IF there really was a fucking exodus from github [04:09] highest_cubist_thrills and there isnt btw [04:09] highest_cubist_thrills there would be stories about projects leaving [04:10] highest_cubist_thrills not just "oh, github is bad, a bunch of projects left" [04:10] highest_cubist_thrills no-- roy writes about software all the time [04:10] highest_cubist_thrills where the stories about ACTUAL PROJECTS (with names) that have left recently? [04:10] highest_cubist_thrills there arent any. wouldnt that be a great story for techrights? [04:10] highest_cubist_thrills problem is-- there is no exodus. [04:10] highest_cubist_thrills no story to write about. [04:11] highest_cubist_thrills you might find a project, and if you do-- thats a story in itself. [04:11] highest_cubist_thrills but you arent going to find much, so if you want to paint a rosy picture about this-- you better make shit up. [04:11] highest_cubist_thrills you cant name names cause there isnt much to name. [04:11] highest_cubist_thrills so thats a good litmus test.

[05:08] DaemonFC And I can't help but feeling like living in America now is like it must have felt before the Shah's government was overthrown in Iran.

It almost always falls back to basic codecs that don't work very well. [13:51] schestowitz[TR] even if you put batteries in them [13:51] schestowitz[TR] lots could still go wrong [13:51] schestowitz[TR] I ended up just using a tuner [13:51] DaemonFC They were made to be horrible so that nobody would dare use the "baseline standard". [13:52] DaemonFC You can't go wrong with the audio jack, quality-wise. [13:52] schestowitz[TR] broadcasting from the stereo to a heeadset over what was then not wifi or BT ... cshort range radio... like walkie-talkie [13:52] schestowitz[TR] but takes a lot of battery power [13:52] schestowitz[TR] why not just use a tuner [13:52] DaemonFC Yeah, you mean short range FM? [13:52] DaemonFC Those actually sounded better than Bluetooth. [13:53] schestowitz[TR] like if you want to play a cd in the garden [13:53] schestowitz[TR] without discman [13:53] DaemonFC And it degraded gracefully as you walked away, not like glitching and freezing. [13:53] schestowitz[TR] just headdddphones [13:53] schestowitz[TR] I had an rca tuner [13:53] schestowitz[TR] and that was very energy-efficient [13:53] DaemonFC Bluetooth has the "digital cliff" problem that DTV broadcasts also have. [13:54] DaemonFC It's why nobody uses an antenna now. Even in the same city you can hardly get the stuff coming off the tallest building. [13:54] schestowitz[TR] FM radios = you don't need to broadcast anything [13:54] schestowitz[TR] i still use fm radio soemtimes for football [13:54] schestowitz[TR] on a 1990s tuner [13:54] DaemonFC I use it in the car. [13:54] schestowitz[TR] how 'uncool' [13:54] DaemonFC They keep spamming me wanting me to buy Sirius because I took the car in for an oil change. [13:55] schestowitz[TR] btw, fm receivers are passive [13:55] schestowitz[TR] they don't boadcast any data on you [13:55] DaemonFC Microsoft is trying to convince them to get rid of analog FM and use "HD Radio". [13:55] DaemonFC That failed miserably for those people who had their car stereo destroyed by NPR, didn't it? [13:55] DaemonFC Not just NPR. NPR in Seattle.

[13:58] schestowitz[TR] I read about it [13:58] schestowitz[TR] but did not know the cause [13:58] DaemonFC Like, the car's tuner will freeze and lock on to that station and you can't even control the volume anymore because the JPEG didn't come through and there's no code to say "Okay, well, we should discard the JPEG then.". [13:58] schestowitz[TR] did they pin it down on edge case/unhancled exception [13:58] DaemonFC Yeah, JPEG. [13:59] schestowitz[TR] and that it is irreversible now? [13:59] schestowitz[TR] but wait [13:59] DaemonFC People driving out of range just as the JPEG was coming in. [13:59] schestowitz[TR] why would a radio get a JPEG? [13:59] schestowitz[TR] wavelet for..? [13:59] schestowitz[TR] and not sanitise input, and... [13:59] DaemonFC Because it's a touch screen that supports "HD Radio".
