[00:04]	DaemonFC	Comcast is out here. There's a bunch of lines that don't work at all.
[00:04]	schestowitz-TR	cool!
[00:05]	DaemonFC	I asked him if he could just take the two way splitter off my neighbor's line and patch me in using a three way splitter until they can get someone out here to rewire everything in a couple weeks.
[00:05]	DaemonFC	Then push the line we're all using behind a big bush so that idiot can't weed whack the line again.
[00:06]	DaemonFC	The neighbors are up there stoned. I wonder if they'll be pissed when their cable goes down for a bit.
[00:06]	DaemonFC	:)
[00:06]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, Did you see the picture of the cars?

[00:07]	DaemonFC	The 2008 Buick is in front, the 2003 Impala is in back.
[00:08]	schestowitz-TR	is that the car you want to buy next to yours?
[00:08]	schestowitz-TR	ah
[00:08]	schestowitz-TR	ok, beat me to it
[00:08]	DaemonFC	Yep, it's my mechanic's dad's car.
[00:08]	DaemonFC	I looked it over.
[00:08]	schestowitz-TR	make sure it's not going to break after you buy it
[00:08]	schestowitz-TR	speaking or asking for a friend
[00:08]	DaemonFC	It has a couple quirks that are not too important.
[00:09]	schestowitz-TR	who recently bought a "good" second-hand car and spends a lot of time taking in it for repairs
[00:09]	DaemonFC	I'm going to flush the coolant and change the battery right away.
[00:09]	schestowitz-TR	[00:08] <DaemonFC> Yep, it's my mechanic's dad's car.
[00:09]	DaemonFC	They just put new tires on it.
[00:09]	schestowitz-TR	ah, so he can vouch for it
[00:09]	schestowitz-TR	would not sell you some dodgy shit
[00:09]	DaemonFC	It sat long enough to dry rot the tires.
[00:09]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, I know him well enough to know he doesn't run a dirty shop.
[00:09]	schestowitz-TR	yeah, shaq
[00:10]	schestowitz-TR	anyway, be sure you have secure parking
[00:10]	DaemonFC	He's always done all of the work I've paid him for on the Impala and that's the last I hear about that part.
[00:10]	schestowitz-TR	anyway, bbiab
[00:10]	schestowitz-TR	I am way behind rss feeds
[00:10]	schestowitz-TR	and cars are barely on topic
[00:10]	DaemonFC	I had him replace the front bumper cover and headlamps last year.
[00:10]	schestowitz-TR	at least this one is not "Smart"
[00:10]	DaemonFC	The old ones were fogged up and yellow.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	Then I ended up having that accident and busting them out.
[00:11]	schestowitz-TR	ok
[00:11]	DaemonFC	So I'm just glad I didn't replace them then have the accident then have to replace two brand new headlamps AGAIN.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, No smart shit.
[00:12]	DaemonFC	No cameras, tablets, hard drives, infotainment system, navigation system, onstar, or anything like that.

[02:05]	matey	the one thing i truly hate about xterm though is
[02:05]	activelow	here rxvt is faster than xterm (Xorg fbdev driver), and it depends if async scrolling or similar is enabled

[02:06]	MinceR	it was a pain to use on a rpi1

[02:07]	matey	presumably i dont use "legacy bsd pty handling" though
[02:07]	matey	pty has something to do with tty, but youd have to explain it
[02:07]	activelow	good question, linux kernel offers legacy pty option (which i consider as some minor security benefit), and too i disabled the modern pty handling
[02:07]	MinceR	pty is pseudoteletype, tty is teletype
[02:07]	MinceR	iirc
[02:07]	matey	linux kernel offers legacy pty optio <- well there you go, i wouldnt benefit from that because im not using that kernel :)

[02:07]	matey	<MinceR> pty is pseudoteletype, tty is teletype <- cheers mincer
[02:08]	activelow	this required patches, for example, to tmux; and some other terminals which require a pty can be configured... xterm didn't support legacy pty ($ man pty; on linux) anymore

[02:08]	matey	at any rate i dont know how to make use of that feature
[02:09]	activelow	matey: openbsd pty handling is different (wscons iirc), and this requires separate code paths in rxvt/xterm/tmux etc. anyway
[02:09]	matey	still, ive never argued for there to be only one term. i literally installed rxvt this week
[02:09]	matey	for reasons (im sure i wont use it)
[02:09]	activelow	and wscons is different to the original legacy bsd/unix pty
[02:09]	matey	my guess is if anyone uses it, openbsd supports it (unless its a vector or vulnerability)
[02:10]	TR News	AlmaLinux = Microsoft booster. Use RockyLinux instead. Skip AlmaLinux. They boost ATTACKS on GNU/Linux, e.g. Azure and WSL. Those are NOT pro-GNU/Linux but deliberate attacks on us all. AlmaLinux is opportunistic like Novell.
[02:10]	activelow	anyway, rxvt on fbdev/xorg is the _fastes_ terminal i worked with

[02:13]	activelow	the tek4014 emulation is interesting, or vt340 with bitmap graphics, which rxvt doesn't have
[02:13]	matey	the tek4014 emulation is interesting <- it would be. mines only compiled with these fucking "sixels" but i dont have a test for that yet

[03:36]	matey	/me assumes good reason, but doesnt know what it is
[03:36]	matey	whats wrong with accepting dogecoin
[03:37]	schestowitz-TR	do you know what it is?
[03:37]	schestowitz-TR	me neither
[03:37]	matey	i mean i know what dogecoin is
[03:37]	schestowitz-TR	that answers the question, methinks
[03:37]	schestowitz-TR	you can convert your USD to roycoins
[03:37]	matey	but no details that would allow me to figure out why its such a big deal
[03:37]	schestowitz-TR	I can give you a good exchange rate
[03:37]	matey	but again, whats the problem with accepting roycoins
[03:37]	matey	did they stop accepting other currencies
[03:37]	schestowitz-TR	what are they backed by?
[03:38]	matey	no i know
[03:38]	matey	but again...
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	they legitimise a scam
[03:38]	matey	okay
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	and then later some users will think
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	"oh, even mozilla accepts it"
[03:38]	matey	hmm
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	so they join the MLM/pyramid scheme
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	then the money gets "lost"
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	"stolen"
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	"where's my coin???"
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	and then say
[03:38]	matey	seems like a curious thing for people to be up in arms about 
[03:38]	schestowitz-TR	"mozilla, WTF??"
[03:38]	matey	but not completely i guess
[03:39]	matey	/me only uses madoffcoin
[03:39]	matey	seems legit
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	the coincranks used this mozilla announcment/tweet
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	to prop up the scam, shoring up perceived value
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	and this is what keeps it going
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	more people entering
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	like MLM
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	it will grow
[03:39]	matey	i didnt know dogecoin was so hated
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	as long as more people join
[03:39]	schestowitz-TR	at the end it implodes
[03:39]	matey	i thought it was just another silly cryptocurrency
[03:40]	schestowitz-TR	as nobody else still falls for the FOMO effect
[03:40]	schestowitz-TR	only the ones who started the scheme cash in
[03:40]	schestowitz-TR	those who suffer the most are the last FOMOs
[03:40]	matey	the thing is, i think all money is a scam
[03:40]	schestowitz-TR	yes
[03:40]	schestowitz-TR	but some is riskier
[03:40]	matey	but theres scams, and then theres scams-on-scams-on-scams
[03:40]	schestowitz-TR	like dogeshitcoin
[03:40]	matey	right 
[03:41]	matey	undisputed
[03:41]	schestowitz-TR	they use mozilla
[03:41]	matey	mozilla is also a scam
[03:41]	schestowitz-TR	to get people to add another layer to this pyramid
[03:41]	matey	which is written in rust, which is a scam
[03:41]	schestowitz-TR	and line the pockets of the founder/s
[03:41]	schestowitz-TR	like mt gox
[03:41]	matey	and mozilla and apache were the flagships of open source
[03:41]	matey	which is also a scam
[03:42]	matey	so mozilla is a scam written in a scam as part of a scam, peddling a scam
[03:42]	schestowitz-TR	but mozilla's founder had another take
[03:42]	schestowitz-TR	he focused on environmental impact
[03:42]	schestowitz-TR	so I assume dogeshitcoin also involves "mining"
[03:42]	schestowitz-TR	burning energy just for the sake of it
[03:42]	matey	its like the guy in tropic thunder

[05:56]	schestowitz-TR	DaemonFC: ok
[05:57]	DaemonFC	Just out of spite, I added "Super Crappy T-Mobile Home Internet Pod Enclosed" to the bottom of the shipping return label.
[05:58]	DaemonFC	And "May it toast in the fires of Silicon Hell.".

[06:00]	DaemonFC	It is eye opening what having lousy Internet service for 6 months is like. The only actual reason I could see for buying this product is if you live in the middle of a cornfield and it's this or satellite Internet.
[06:02]	DaemonFC	"The one upside is that the customer support people in the Philippines are always so nice to talk to."
[06:02]	DaemonFC	"I don't blame them at all for this shitfest that T-Mobile calls an ISP, because they're obviously not running the company. I just don't think T-Mobile Home Internet is going to be a thing for much longer if it can't do better than COMCAST."

[06:05]	DaemonFC	"While I can't knock free, I also mistakenly called into the regular Comcast line before realizing that Internet Essentials is operated like another company. I noticed their paying customers don't get a lot of support anymore."
[06:05]	DaemonFC	"Comcast has started closing customer service at night (used to be 24 hours a day) and forcing people to deal with a lot of menus and prompts and a chat robot on their website or SMS text messaging system and it takes 30 minutes of poking around telling it none of this applies before it will hand you off to a real person who can actually solve a problem. The rest is just this dumb "Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in or do you 
[06:05]	DaemonFC	want to pay your bill now?" 500 times along the way."
[06:06]	DaemonFC	"ZDNet says that McDonalds will be like this pretty soon too."
[06:07]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, The people at the Mexican McDonalds franchises run a tight ship around here.
[06:07]	DaemonFC	They always have people cleaning the place. The food is never old or cold or sitting there under a heat lamp for a long time.
[06:08]	DaemonFC	Richard Stallman probably had an experience at one of those "Chicago Ghetto McDonalds" that looks like it opened in 1980 and they haven't cleaned it since.
[06:09]	DaemonFC	It all goes back to the work ethic.
[06:09]	DaemonFC	The Mexican immigrants have it. They wouldn't be caught dead with their restaurant looking like one in south Chicago.
[06:10]	DaemonFC	I seriously doubt that the McDonalds Corporation is going to help those ghetto locations with the transition to the IBM stuff.
[06:11]	DaemonFC	During COVID, they were complaining that they weren't getting bailout packages from the Corporation that the other franchisees were getting.
[06:11]	DaemonFC	Then they were applying for PPP loans and nobody wanted to hand them over very quickly.
[06:12]	DaemonFC	I think they were using the pandemic to try to finish off the underperforming McDonalds locations off.
[06:12]	DaemonFC	matey, I'm moving on up since that video, in some ways.
[06:12]	DaemonFC	Although I do miss that apartment.
[06:13]	DaemonFC	It was usually peaceful there. I don't do well under stress or with loud noises.
[06:14]	DaemonFC	Well, it looks like they managed to shrink XWayland's memory usage some more.
[06:17]	matey	 I don't do well under stress or with loud noises. <- theres no evidence that anyone does well under stress or loud noises
[06:17]	matey	some people claim to, and i can say some things about that
[06:17]	matey	but some people surely do worse than others
[06:18]	matey	<DaemonFC> Well, it looks like they managed to shrink XWayland's memory usage some more. <- we should have him test straight up malware as well
[06:18]	matey	is mandy your first spouse?
[06:19]	DaemonFC	Yes, but marriage has only been legal since late 2014. So there's no telling what I would have stepped in had it been legal to. The bigotry may have actually saved me from some really awful American citizens.
[06:19]	matey	/me used to live in one of the nations gay capitals
[06:20]	matey	/me remembers gay people joking they were against gay marriage too "im against all marriage actually"
[06:20]	matey	of course its making light
[06:20]	DaemonFC	I wouldn't want to, honestly. Live in a "gay" neighborhood.
[06:20]	matey	oh it wasnt so bad until too many straights moved in
[06:21]	DaemonFC	It raises too many questions.
[06:21]	matey	but youre probably thinking of california, and thats not fair
[06:21]	kingoffrance	well there's "no marriage in heaven" lol
[06:21]	matey	because california is going to suck no matter who is there
[06:21]	kingoffrance	so guess where we are lol
[06:21]	matey	<DaemonFC> It raises too many questions. <- rofl
[06:21]	DaemonFC	Like, if you get in a wreck between a KIA and a Mini, whose insurance writes the check for the $5 remaining value after the deductible on the 3 year old car?
[06:21]	DaemonFC	MinceR, ^
[06:21]	matey	<kingoffrance> so guess where we are lol <- purgatgory!
[06:21]	kingoffrance	lol
[06:23]	matey	bigotry may have actually saved me from some really awful American citizens.
[06:23]	matey	 i love every part of that line
[06:23]	matey	though i get it
[06:24]	matey	i dont think america is the absolute worst place to get married
[06:24]	matey	theres saudi arabia
[06:24]	matey	probably china (although the ceremonies are cool)
[06:24]	DaemonFC	matey, We might just toss the cats in the car with us and go on a trip out to see some of God's Country in the Buick.
[06:24]	DaemonFC	While we still can.
[06:24]	DaemonFC	Before the Democrats ruin everything.
[06:25]	matey	the good news is that the democratic party is a subset of everything
[06:25]	DaemonFC	I hadn't thought of that. But....they ruined their own party a long time ago.
[06:25]	DaemonFC	It used to be a Progressive Workers Party.
[06:25]	matey	yes
[06:26]	matey	and eventually, progressive workers will destroy the democratic party
[06:26]	matey	fuck knows when
[06:26]	matey	or theyll retake it, but this is not my preference
[06:26]	matey	in the uk its better they take over labour again
[06:26]	matey	every call to start their own party was a mistake, no matter how utterly shit labour is right now
[06:27]	DaemonFC	I may just sit this election out this year and vote for the Libertarians.
[06:27]	matey	the libertarians bother me less than the democrats
[06:27]	DaemonFC	It's going to be Pritzker against 5 Republicans that all got out of their Nazi clown car.
[06:27]	matey	the whole thing is a farce without major campaign funding reform anyway
[06:28]	DaemonFC	I can vote for whichever candidate I want almost straight down the ballot with no risk of a Republican winning that office.
[06:28]	DaemonFC	It's so gerrymandered and corrupt.

[06:29]	matey	i dont see the connection
[06:29]	DaemonFC	Without that, they'd have had a hundred years unbroken stretch in the White House.
[06:29]	matey	money is what destroyed the democratic party
[06:29]	DaemonFC	It was the seeds of Wokeism.
[06:29]	DaemonFC	Oh no.
[06:29]	DaemonFC	It lost them the south forever.
[06:30]	matey	dont be too sure
[06:30]	matey	the south is far from homogenous
[06:31]	matey	at any rate its not a real party anymore, they ought to lose the entire country
[06:31]	matey	if democracy means anything at all
[06:31]	DaemonFC	And with that, I have to go to bed. Medication kicking in.
[06:32]	DaemonFC	About to fall face first into the computer.

[06:33]	matey	if anything the democratic party are the campaign managers of the republicans, and vice-versa

[06:34]	matey	go home pendulum, youre drunk
[06:34]	kingoffrance	lol
[06:35]	matey	two wrongs dont make a left and right!
[06:35]	activelow	today some election is scheduled in france
[06:36]	matey	spoiler, the fascist wins
[06:36]	matey	for now
[06:36]	matey	the eu: elect a fascist, or youll get us either way!
[06:37]	matey	apparently
[06:37]	activelow	who is supposed to be the fascist? in france?
[06:37]	activelow	wasn't aware france was fascist.
[06:37]	matey	i may be exaggerating a little bit
[06:38]	matey	its just that europe isnt the most progressive place in the world right now
[06:38]	matey	it has its moments
[06:38]	matey	and i mean in terms of mainstream politics-- underneath all that people are fighting
[06:38]	matey	the eu itself is pretty bizarre
[06:38]	matey	promises, promises
[06:39]	matey	and then, whatever the hell this thing is
[06:39]	activelow	EU isn't constitutional anymore
[06:39]	matey	i think theyre libertarian overall
[06:39]	matey	in other words, on paper its all freedom for everybody
[06:40]	matey	and in practice its a corporate dick sucking contest
[06:40]	activelow	listened to some interview, with a EU official, who was responsible for immigration policy, and openly admitted, such policy served to retain their supposedly "liberal" and "open" society, which is their subsidized apparatus
[06:40]	matey	obviously when i call the eu libetarian, thats tongue in cheek
[06:40]	matey	their supposedly "liberal" and "open" society <- they have all kinds of words like that!
[06:41]	matey	they have an entire thesaurus at their disposal
[06:41]	activelow	they really feared, some liberal political parties, such as AfD and similar;
[06:41]	matey	kingoffrance can translate 
[06:41]	matey	you and afd, i dont know
[06:42]	activelow	certainly not, nonetheless it is the only political party in this apparatus i am willing to listen to
[06:42]	matey	i never trust a party where everyone has identical haircuts
[06:42]	matey	that disqualifies republicans and afd right off the bat
[06:45]	activelow	yesterday, some live interview from the ISS, there they joined for lunch, music and fun in the russian capsule, they said
[06:48]	activelow	anyway, this sunday, french presidential elections, and soon the largest federal state in germany, NRW, federal elections there 15th May
[06:49]	activelow	in parallel to, the foreign policy, which "Alliance90/greens" peace angels eco feminist activist gang now phrases as "strengthen right to self-defense", with weapons deliveries
[06:49]	kingoffrance	www.dict.org has a public domain moby thesaurus.  it tends to have lots of weird things with no explanation how they made a "connection" so i like that i guess lol
[06:49]	kingoffrance	they went for thoroughness lol
[06:49]	matey	it tends to have lots of weird things with no explanation how they made a "connection" <- sounds like me
[06:50]	matey	i can usually explain the connection, but that takes the fun out of it a lot of the time
[06:50]	kingoffrance	there's some moby pronunciator public domain too IIRC  
[06:51]	matey	it would be a shame if they only had a thesaurus, and not a dictionary
[06:51]	matey	because "moby"
[06:52]	kingoffrance	yeah, jargon file has it as a unit IIRC
[06:53]	kingoffrance	im unaware of any connection, except people use it that way i guess lol

[11:04]	DaemonFC	The piston rings on the Impala have enough wear that if you smoke test it through the evap line then you see it come out through there a little bit, but it's obviously not too bad. The engine compression tests just fine.
[11:05]	DaemonFC	It's still totally within specifications, which is unusual for an engine with 281,000 miles on it.
[11:05]	DaemonFC	There's absolutely no indication that this engine couldn't go a long way still to come, even at its current age and mileage.

[11:09]	DaemonFC	MinceR, I was telling my dad that I was pirating Cedega in RPM format a long time ago when he asked how I was running games back then.
[11:10]	DaemonFC	I said, "And you know what that makes it?"....he says, "No.....".
[11:10]	DaemonFC	I said, "Arrrgh! PM.".
[11:11]	DaemonFC	"Which is also what you call it when RPM corrupts its database again."
[11:12]	DaemonFC	There's a nice long process to get it to unfuck itself, of course.
[11:12]	DaemonFC	I'm not sure if this is better with RPM-OSTree.
[11:13]	schestowitz-TR	Cedega
[11:13]	schestowitz-TR	the memories 
[11:14]	schestowitz-TR	I saw is mentioned last week
[11:15]	DaemonFC	Microsoft is so sensitive to cultural issues and people's feelings that when they were designing the Windows registry, an employee apparently knew his coworker had a severe bee allergy and started naming things in the registry after bees and bee hives.
[11:16]	DaemonFC	Of course, the most offensive part of this is that when they made the registry key file format for import, they used the extension "HIV".
[11:16]	DaemonFC	Now, saying "blacklist a kernel module" is offensive.
[11:17]	schestowitz-TR	i want to know who it offneded
[11:17]	schestowitz-TR	not in the abstract
[11:18]	schestowitz-TR	like an actual person
[11:18]	DaemonFC	Well, it was during the AIDS crisis.
[11:18]	DaemonFC	And you name something "HIV" that goes into the operating system?
[11:18]	schestowitz-TR	and you can be sure that's not THE reason we don't see many black programmers
[11:18]	schestowitz-TR	the reasons are very different

[11:19]	schestowitz-TR	and that has nothing to do with NASA's choice of technical terms

[11:20]	schestowitz-TR	IIRC, that was ICBM

[12:25]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, "Reddit and Social media has been trending in the direction of bought and paid for SPAM and shitposting for years.
[12:25]	DaemonFC	Its now to the point where theres precious little reason to use Reddit.
[12:25]	DaemonFC	I cant remember the last time I read /r/Linux. They are Microsoft trolls who banned me after my post reached tens of thousands of likes during a skirmish with Lenovo that I eventually won after taking it to the Illinois Attorney Generals office and winning a settlement involving offering a patched BIOS that allowed GNU/Linux to be installed on the Yoga 900-ISK2.
[12:25]	DaemonFC	The Baron Harkonnen (Dune miniseries incarnation) said it best, perhaps:
[12:25]	DaemonFC	Dont get more popular than the boss, unless you intend to sack him. Oh my, did I say that? How impolitic of me!"
[12:26]	schestowitz-TR	haha
[12:27]	schestowitz-TR	at work I don't feel so boss
[12:27]	schestowitz-TR	sometimes I lecture the boss or stick it to them
[12:27]	schestowitz-TR	they can do nothing
[12:27]	schestowitz-TR	because they need me
[12:28]	schestowitz-TR	and they know not to give me grief (anymore)
[12:28]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, One of the supervisors at Walmart cornered my spouse.
[12:28]	schestowitz-TR	you told me
[12:28]	schestowitz-TR	I think
[12:28]	DaemonFC	And he actually stood up for himself and went to that guy's boss.
[12:28]	DaemonFC	This happened the other day.
[12:29]	DaemonFC	So the big boss comes down and yells at the supervisor and tells him not to do that again because Mandy had finished all of his own work and gone to help in a different department.
[12:29]	schestowitz-TR	yes, that is the thing to do
[12:29]	schestowitz-TR	go to the boss
[12:29]	schestowitz-TR	because they do
[12:29]	schestowitz-TR	and control the narrative
[12:29]	DaemonFC	He said, "It's bad enough we have to fire so many people because they stand around doing nothing and skipping all of the hard jobs. You don't yell at someone for finishing their work and finding something else important to do.".
[12:30]	DaemonFC	So then the supervisor found him and apologized.
[12:30]	schestowitz-TR	good
[12:30]	schestowitz-TR	managers know how not to apologise
[12:30]	DaemonFC	I have no idea why you would yell at someone for straightening up your department during the last hour of their shift and it's not even coming out of your payroll!
[12:30]	schestowitz-TR	at best they hide
[12:30]	schestowitz-TR	to save face
[12:30]	schestowitz-TR	or speak through someone else
[12:31]	DaemonFC	Oh I know, and when they don't have the balls to complain about you and admit that they're the ones that have an issue, here's what they say.
[12:31]	DaemonFC	"Someone came in to talk to us about you anonymously."
[12:32]	DaemonFC	One day since I was being written up anyway for it, I said, "Is that so? Pretty spineless of them.".
[12:32]	schestowitz-TR	there's this misconception that only arsehole-ish people can manage
[12:33]	schestowitz-TR	they drive companies into the ground

[12:33]	DaemonFC	The guy at Bart's Car Store wasn't happy about it.
[12:33]	DaemonFC	When I went to leave, he got in another car and blocked off the entrance to their lot and then got out and stared me down.

[12:42]	DaemonFC	And she says, "That terrible pain you're feeling now is the disease I've had for years. I was dying, but you'll never hurt anyone again. Do you hear me, you monster? You'll never hurt anybody again!".
[12:42]	DaemonFC	So that's the right attitude.
[12:44]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, If more people shot their attacker, by definition there'd be less crime later on.
[12:44]	DaemonFC	Nobody there to do it again as soon as the judge gave them some joke of a sentence because he's a Democrat.

[12:44]	DaemonFC	People get their "notice to disappear" from the court.
[12:45]	DaemonFC	And they bail on their court date, ne'er to be seen again.
[12:45]	DaemonFC	Especially the illegals that know how to do that anyway.
[12:46]	DaemonFC	There ought to be a law that says if they're trying to kill, mug, or rape you, and they're alive when they hit the ground, you get two more shots to finish them off without it being a crime.
[12:47]	DaemonFC	Should we have to depend on frontier justice? No. There's thousands and thousands of cops there just doing nothing at all, writing speeding tickets while you're being raped.

[12:51]	DaemonFC	Windows itself can be ported to lots of things, by Microsoft.
[12:51]	DaemonFC	But they can't make app developers pay it any attention.
[12:52]	DaemonFC	And they themselves have no right to recompile it, so limping around on some shitty emulator isn't fun either.
[12:52]	DaemonFC	So the devices don't sell and they take a write-off, and nobody wants them because you can't disable "Secure Boot" and run Linux.

[14:04]	DaemonFC	They're probably ripping off Android customers too with the same patents.
[14:04]	DaemonFC	For the most part, if the iPhone does something, Android does it too, and more.
[14:05]	DaemonFC	So the patents that threaten Apple useds threaten Android phones. But since Androids sell for less, the patents are a bigger part of the costs. So they're a barrier to affordability.
[14:06]	DaemonFC	If you're trying to sell a $150 Motorola G, $5 per phone for Ericsson is a lot more of a nuisance than it is for Apple.
[14:06]	DaemonFC	Because Apple is selling $1,500 phones and none of their customers are even going to notice.
[14:07]	DaemonFC	Apple isn't fighting to save their customers money, they're fighting to pad their bottom line.
[14:07]	DaemonFC	They gave up caring about marketshare as much as seeing what the upper limit on price for people who would never buy an Android because they're a snob.
[14:08]	DaemonFC	So Apple prices go up due to price discovery. They haven't found one that's too painful yet, so they keep going.

[14:10]	DaemonFC	Apple's pricing strategy is based on the price inelasticity of demand at this point. They've shucked most of the users who care what the phone costs.
[14:10]	DaemonFC	And now it's all about fleecing the ones who are left.
[14:11]	DaemonFC	You're going to get robbed if you own an iPhone and Apple knows it, and the people buying it know it too on some level. Carriers play subsidy games to make it look like it's not such a burden.
[14:12]	DaemonFC	The truth is they're not very good phones and they cost Apple between $250-400 to make.
[14:13]	DaemonFC	Android phones tend to sell for between 40% and double what they cost to produce. Apple's tend to sell for 2.5 to nearly 4x
[14:13]	DaemonFC	40% more
[14:13]	DaemonFC	The margins are very padded on iPhones.

[16:10]	rasputinaB	i need to keep an eye on things
[16:10]	bnchs	so you spy on your employees at home?
[16:11]	rasputinaB	spy? no
[16:11]	bnchs	and are they using the company's computers?
[16:11]	rasputinaB	supervise
[16:11]	bnchs	or their own computer?
[16:11]	rasputinaB	company's computers
[16:12]	rasputinaB	mostly some people prefer to use their owns
[16:12]	matey	you could also aim a camera at everyones screen
[16:12]	bnchs	yeah sure
[16:12]	bnchs	lemme give my employees spyware
[16:12]	bnchs	to "supervise"
[16:12]	bnchs	it's not spying on your private messages, it's supervising your messages
[16:13]	rasputinaB	isnt that how all big corps work?
[16:13]	bnchs	if i were you
[16:13]	rasputinaB	making sure no corporate info is leaked
[16:13]	matey	maybe attach a pulse monitor to every worker so when they slow down, you can tell theyre resting
[16:13]	rasputinaB	its for their own good actually
[16:13]	bnchs	if i were you, as long as they did their work, i wouldn't give a shit
[16:14]	matey	<rasputinaB> making sure no corporate info is leaked <- maybe installing malware isnt the best road to data security
[16:14]	matey	<rasputinaB> its for their own good actually <- they always say this
[16:14]	bnchs	"oh you're not moving your mouse"
[16:14]	bnchs	"YOU'RE NOT WORKING"
[16:14]	rasputinaB	a least we can hopefully sort things out privately with out involving 3th parties
[16:14]	psydruid	you could also point guns at everyone's faces
[16:14]	bnchs	"-20 to your salary"
[16:14]	matey	of course we are pretending this isnt trolling
[16:14]	psydruid	if they are not productive enough, they're gone
[16:14]	matey	 <psydruid> you could also point guns at everyone's faces <- that makes people work harder yes
[16:15]	matey	psydruid: this is whats inefficient about the corporate workplace. just put them all in camps!
[16:15]	psydruid	matey, Arbeit macht frei!
[16:16]	matey	we have quotas, you know
[16:16]	rasputinaB	aren't all big corps doing it already one way or the other?
[16:16]	matey	<rasputinaB> aren't all big corps doing it already one way or the other? <- yes though reformists stand against this
[16:16]	matey	so sometimes there are limits
[16:17]	bnchs	rasputinaB, that doesn't mean you shouldn't also do it
[16:17]	rasputinaB	its mostly for preventing data exfiltration
[16:17]	matey	<rasputinaB> its mostly for preventing data exfiltration <- still thinks psydruids idea is better for security
[16:17]	matey	no ones going to leak corporate data with a gun at their head
[16:17]	bnchs	rasputinaB, can you tell me why they should leak corporate data
[16:17]	matey	"go ahead, press 'enter' motherfucker"
[16:18]	bnchs	is there bad work ethics?
[16:18]	matey	 can you tell me why they should leak corporate data <- to be fair, corporate espionage IS a thing
[16:18]	bnchs	maybe shit salary
[16:19]	rasputinaB	its just a tool
[16:19]	matey	maybe shit salary <- maybe stephen elop sent them
[16:19]	matey	<rasputinaB> its just a tool <- so is a gun
[16:19]	matey	have you tried pointing a gun at their heads?
[16:19]	bnchs	rasputinaB, there is no way to prevent data exfiltration
[16:19]	bnchs	as long as you have external storage devices
[16:19]	bnchs	or the internet
[16:20]	rasputinaB	guns don't kill people people kill people
[16:20]	matey	guns might kill people, but bullets are effective at a longer range
[16:20]	matey	i cant throw a gun very hard
[16:21]	matey	maybe i could hit a pigeon if its lighted
[16:21]	rasputinaB	besides this isnt a gun we aer talking about
[16:21]	matey	a gun is just a tool
[16:21]	matey	guns have done a lot for security
[16:23]	rasputinaB	im sure there are lots of such tools but they use closed source and xost lots of money
[16:23]	matey	guns are effective for removing remote access tools
[16:24]	bnchs	rasputinaB, borat is closed source
[16:24]	matey	if you shoot your smartphone the rat will almost certainly die with it
[16:24]	bnchs	also windows-exclusive, like always
[16:24]	bnchs	best way is to tell your employees to use their own computer
[16:24]	rasputinaB	shut up with this gun talk
[16:24]	matey	you started it
[16:24]	bnchs	rasputinaB, what about the employees with their own computer
[16:25]	bnchs	if you infect their computer with your malware, then it's unethical
[16:26]	rasputinaB	it might be harder to get the thing running cause they usually take it home
[16:26]	matey	to remove a rat from a desktop you have to target the hard drive
[16:26]	psydruid	how did rasputin's life come to an end again?
[16:26]	matey	aiming at the monitor will only make a mess
[16:26]	rasputinaB	it was their choice to use their personal computer for work
[16:26]	bnchs	rasputinaB, have you talked with them
[16:27]	bnchs	have you disclosed that you're planning to infect their machines with your spyware?
[16:27]	rasputinaB	i didnt pointed a gun to their heads heh

[16:27]	TR Bot	 Grigori Rasputin - Wikipedia
[16:27]	matey	psydruid: three gunshots
[16:27]	bnchs	INCLUDING disclosing that the company computers have spyware on it
[16:27]	matey	that could explain why rasputinaB is uncomfortable with gun talk, but we are only talking about using it for data security
[16:28]	matey	and maybe removing excess pigeons, though that (too) was hypothetical
[16:28]	rasputinaB	wouldn't disclosing that kinda break the point?
[16:28]	rasputinaB	actually you just gave me a good idea
[16:28]	bnchs	it's unethical if you don't disclose it
[16:28]	bnchs	and can be used against you

[20:17]		*XRevan86 haven't seen it.
[20:21]	psydruid	I just started doing Teach Yourself Russia last week but took a break the past few days, because it was a bit too much. I also need to create flashcards so I don't forget all the words. I'm using Parley for that because Anki is less useful with its overcomplicated monolithic design.

[20:38]	MinceR	but i don't know how the legality of broadcasting from an EU member to another EU member on an unlicensed frequency band
[20:38]	XRevan86	Russian propaganda learnt too well how to spread disinformation and muddy the waters.
[20:38]	psydruid	Waiting and seeing how things are going to be in 500 years

[20:38]	XRevan86	psydruid: Literally unpredictable.
[20:38]	XRevan86	I can't tell how things will be in half a year.
[20:39]	MinceR	it seems to me that countries where facts are at least allowed to be broadcast tend to do better
[20:40]	XRevan86	MinceR: It's not that facts are inaccessible, they're just harder to access.
[20:40]	MinceR	yeah
[20:40]	MinceR	too hard for most hungarians outside budapest
[20:40]	XRevan86	And people don't actually want facts.
[20:41]	MinceR	that's irrelevant
[20:45]	kingoffrance	facts are 100% useless without context

[20:49]	XRevan86	MinceR: The likes/replies ratio.
[20:49]	MinceR	doesn't sound useful
[20:49]	MinceR	then again, the whole of twitter is useless
[20:49]	XRevan86	MinceR: The idea is that negative posts accumulate a lot of discussion but not that many likes.

[21:36]	kingoffrance	well i dont deny importance of privacy, but like most things in life, it seems to just be a function of how much money you have, so i have little interest
[21:37]	DaemonFC	I worked on one of my posts a bit.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	"Everyone knows their brand is toxic and thats why theyve had no success outside of Windows and Office in the consumer market, and why Windows is dying. Apple, of course, never needed Microsoft for anything on the iPod, and the iPod did include MP3 support, and although Apple never did comment on it, they did have a competitor on the iPod. It was called pirated music.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	I once saw a breakdown of iPods sold vs. music sales on iTunes, and it boiled down to 26 songs per iPod sold. Someone was pirating music, and pretty much all pirated music is in MP3, and it was probably outperforming iTunes by at least 25:1 on the iPod."
[21:38]	DaemonFC	The iPods with miniature hard drives actually did store a lot. When they switched to flash memory it felt like a huge downgrade.
[21:42]	DaemonFC	"And incompatibility with Microsoft wasn't just about not supporting WMA. Pretty much all WMA stores used a different form of DRM enslavement than Apple products, and so Apple would have had to license that too. The various WMA stores didn't even interoperate because Microsoft made a mess out of their own DRM prison schemes and people found out quickly that there was no way to easily "just play WMA" on all their devices, and that's why WMA 
[21:42]	DaemonFC	never really became a thing. If it was just a matter of codec support, lots of things play WMA files, including GNU/Linux media players, Rockbox, and most factory firmwares, but 99% of the WMA files sold by Microsoft partners don't work anymore and never will again due to DRM. Thurrott has always been obtuse and dishonest."

[21:47]	rasputinaB95	isnt there some flood protection on this channel?
[21:48]	DaemonFC	rasputinaB95, Microsoft is running lots of ads on the television now about how Windows 11 is compatible with Linux and Android applications, so it is important. They never say Linux and Android in the commercials.
[21:48]	DaemonFC	But I saw a few on TV the other day, and they showed applications running in WSL and the Android Runtime more often than native Windows apps.
[21:49]	rasputinaB95	i dont give a rats ass
[21:49]	DaemonFC	And this is pretty much an admission they've failed. Compatibility layers are a sign that your OS is on the way up or on the way down, and if it's on the way up you need compatibility with other systems that have a lot of apps, and that's where Wine came in.
[21:49]	DaemonFC	If it's on the way down, you get the Linux Kernel Personality from SCO or FreeBSD, and WSL from Microsoft.

[21:59]	DaemonFC	At least GNOME SHell 42 works and performs better than the Windows 11 shell, with fewer bugs, and no ads.
[21:59]	DaemonFC	That's an improvement.
[21:59]	DaemonFC	And you can see the source code and offer them patches, you can't give up and even try to fix something yourself with Windows.
● Apr 10
[22:00]	DaemonFC	And the consistency has generally resulted in a lower bug count than KDE.
[22:00]	DaemonFC	If you mix and match components together which were not tested that way by upstream, then they may work, they may crash, and if they do work, they may have unexpected weird things going on because no developer ran them on his own computer in that way.
[22:00]	rasputinaB95	whats the meme about number 42?
[22:01]	DaemonFC	But KDE is a lot better lately than it used to be.
[22:01]	bnchs	gnome shell works and performs better than windows 11
[22:01]	bnchs	that says ALOT
[22:01]	bnchs	even something thats so shit like gnome

[22:01]	DaemonFC	In Fedora 36 it's almost as back to being as trouble-free as it was when I used it regularly in the late 3.5 cycle or again late in the 4.x cycle.
[22:02]	DaemonFC	Qt keeps ruining things, and KDE keeps adjusting to the new toolkit, and you end up with the same kind of trouble over and over because they won't stick to a proven design.
[22:02]	rasputinaB95	maybe trinity is stable now
[22:02]	DaemonFC	Trinity is maintained by a team of international developers called Tim Pearson.

[22:25]	DaemonFC	I mostly play the CDs on my home stereo system and then for digital, I'm storing them as Opus.
[22:25]		*wallacer (~quassel@6bsu33ajs4zs4.irc) has joined #techrights
[22:25]	bnchs	i mean you can rip to FLAC as mastercopy
[22:25]	bnchs	and then convert the master copy to a 128k Opus
[22:25]	DaemonFC	Well, the archival aspect of FLAC is nice, and you think you're backing them up sufficiently, but then you have a hard disk crash.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	So at least you can cram another copy on your Google Drive and it's not lost forever.
[22:27]	DaemonFC	I was checking out some Bluetooth speakers at IKEA a couple years back and playing my Talking Heads stuff on them and Billy Ocean and random things from my Opus library on my phone.
[22:27]	DaemonFC	And an employee came over and told me at least it's music and not some teenager playing porn on there with women moaning and stuff.
[22:28]	DaemonFC	Vorbis wasn't terrible either. It had a weird stereo collapse at 64k sometimes, but MP3 would do that under 128k almost always.
[22:29]	DaemonFC	Apple was wasting tons of storage using AAC.
[22:29]	DaemonFC	They have to be twice the size of an Opus file (with the latest Opus encoder anyway) to sound great.
[22:29]	bnchs	<DaemonFC> And an employee came over and told me at least it's music and not some teenager playing porn on there with women moaning and stuff.
[22:29]	bnchs	hahahah that's always the funny part
[22:29]	DaemonFC	There is an open source AAC encoder finally, with FhG AAC, long after I lost interest in the format.
[22:29]	bnchs	play pr0n on max volume
[22:30]	DaemonFC	I tried FhG AAC though.
[22:30]		*psydroid2 has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
[22:30]	DaemonFC	The most important limitation of MP3 is not solved because FhG ported over the psy model code from their MP3 codec that they codeveloped with Thomson.
[22:31]	DaemonFC	It still completely eliminates all high frequencies like their MP3 did, figuring that they couldn't bloat the file if they weren't there at all.
[22:32]	rasputinaB95	AAC is better that mp3
[22:33]	rasputinaB95	but seems like mp3 is still the king
[22:34]	DaemonFC	There just was never a big enough improvement in codec quality to go back to the CD and re-rip until Opus came out.
[22:34]	bnchs	rasputinaB95, AAC is patent-encumbered
[22:35]	rasputinaB95	so is mp3
[22:35]	DaemonFC	Until Opus started becoming a widely accepted standard with good support in hardware, MP3 was worth using because the opportunity costs of moving to something else were too high for the marginal improvement in coding efficiency.
[22:36]	DaemonFC	Then perversely, the biggest reason to LEAVE MP3 and not foist it on others, the patents, all finished expiring 5 years ago.
[22:36]	DaemonFC	FhG and Apple paid off NPR to write an article saying MP3 was dead and go license something else.
[22:36]	DaemonFC	Suggesting all the various profiles of AAC.
[22:37]	DaemonFC	Which are marginally compatible with each other. They came out at different times, you have to license profile codecs from other pools.
[22:37]	DaemonFC	The only thing that is free to use right now is the base format, LC-AAC.
[22:38]	DaemonFC	If you need xHE-AAC, HE-AAC, or multi-channel AAC, you need to license patents.
[22:38]	DaemonFC	And the multi-channel patents aren't dead in the US until 2025, and the HE patents don't die until like 2028, and the xHE-AAC patents will live on through 2035!
[22:39]	DaemonFC	So if you need anything that does all of this, and it's guaranteed to work anywhere the codec does, you may as well move to Opus anyway.
[22:39]	DaemonFC	Because 2035 is a long time and you won't be able to use something as good as Opus is now even if you wait 13 more years for AAC patents to die.
[22:40]	DaemonFC	That's how most software patents are.
[22:40]	DaemonFC	So we should use and promote Free stuff now instead.
[22:41]	chunky	u still wear covid masks + ez clap + go outside + u think nfts are cool + yr memes suck + u watch bra reviews on youtube + u sleep on an air mattress
[22:41]	DaemonFC	And if patents are on something stupid, you can just cut them out and implement them later, like the font antialiasing in freetype.
[22:41]	DaemonFC	I do wear an N95 mask when I'm around others.
[22:42]	bnchs	<chunky> u still wear covid masks + ez clap + go outside + u think nfts are cool + yr memes suck + u watch bra reviews on youtube + u sleep on an air mattress
[22:42]	DaemonFC	I do still have a Sandisk Sansa, it just won't stop. Well, the battery died, but I removed it and installed another one. new Rockbox firmware occasionally.

● Apr 10
[23:00]	matey	the one i know youre referring to
[23:00]	matey	win98lite or something
[23:01]	bnchs	it's funny
[23:01]	bnchs	we have C99 and shit
[23:01]	matey	/me used the instructions from the toastytech website to remove internet explorer from the windows installer itself
[23:01]	bnchs	and you can still find windows programs written in C89
[23:01]	rasputinaB95	i wiched you could run an modern OS on 64 Megas
[23:01]	DaemonFC	<matey> you could use third party tools <- what was the name of that livecd thing called
[23:02]	matey	i think i had the only 10mb installation of windows 95 on earth
[23:02]	bnchs	because microsoft's compiler still doesn't support anything beyond C89
[23:02]	matey	with the gui
[23:02]	DaemonFC	98lite could get it out of the installer, but it could also add add/remove programs entries for everything Microsoft wouldn't let you get rid of.
[23:02]	matey	even control panel didnt load
[23:02]	DaemonFC	RoM II and RoM II SE were freeware, and could only be used on a current install. Preferably before you did anything else with the computer.
[23:02]	matey	not that there was a whole lot for win95 to do when the entire install was only 10mb (5 compressed)
[23:03]	matey	(5 compressed into a zip file)
[23:03]	matey	i wanted the most barebones gui in windows 9x possible. because until the gui loaded, this ONE command line application didnt have the atapi layer it needed
[23:03]	matey	later i got a different program with its own fucking atapi
[23:03]	DaemonFC	I was too broke to pay for anything, so I did a clean install of Windows, ran RoM on it, and then used a program that made a sector-by-sector disk backup onto a CD.
[23:04]	DaemonFC	Whenever Windows was fucked, you could just boot to DOS, run the backup software, insert your CD, and it would reimage the hard disk exactly the way you backed it up.
[23:04]	matey	i never trusted sector-by-sector backups
[23:04]	DaemonFC	Since I got Windows from HP, there was a lot of HP shit to remove too from the OEM recover disc.
[23:05]	matey	i assumed they were too brittle
[23:05]	DaemonFC	So it was actually a couple of hours worth of work from that to a clean Windows without IE+SHIT.
[23:05]	DaemonFC	Popping in a CD that just fast forwards you to AFTER you did all that and installed your drivers was much nicer.

[23:06]	DaemonFC	You didn't need to partition to install Mandrake Linux though.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	You could install it into a loopback file system on top of FAT32 and then add an entry to the Windows bootloader.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	Or NTFS.
[23:06]	matey	i did that with ubuntu once
[23:07]	MinceR	and wonder how long until Backdoors nukes it
[23:07]	matey	"co-linux"
[23:07]	matey	actually, endless os has an option to do that 
[23:07]	DaemonFC	No, Windows would leave it alone because it doesn't generally fuck up Windows Boot Manager and go looking for your Linux filesystem file.
[23:07]	DaemonFC	It only fucks your "Linux" when you use GRUB and partitioning.
[23:07]	matey	you can put it on a file as a fake partition and it will add an entry to the win10 bootloader
[23:08]	matey	it cant keep its grubby hands off grub
[23:08]		*SomeH4x0r has quit (Quit: I expect to be back tomorrow)
[23:08]	DaemonFC	Yeah, you could make another NTFS volume with the Windows volume management tool and put the Wubi partition there.
