IsambardPrinceThere have been at least three projects called Harmony. Including a free replacement for Java that stalled out and was missing a bunch of APIs and was buggy, a reverse engineering of the iPod sync protocol, and an abortive replacement for Qt.May 10 04:26
IsambardPrincehttps://www.indystar.com/story/opinion/columnists/james-briggs/2025/05/08/trumps-tariffs-indiana-fireworks-cost/83497476007/?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebookMay 10 04:28

IsambardPrince"Trump's 145% tax on goods imported from China is making fireworks prohibitively expensive, just as retailers are stocking up for the July 4 holiday. Virtually all consumer fireworks come from China, and Indiana is a major recipient thanks to free-for-all laws enabling amateur pyrotechnicians to purchase miniature explosive devices and detonate them every day until midnight from June 29 to July 9."May 10 04:29
IsambardPrinceI remember when fireworks were illegal in Indiana like they still are in Illinois.May 10 04:29
IsambardPrinceThe Illinois ban works about as well as the Indiana one did.May 10 04:29
IsambardPrinceThe Indiana law said you couldn't set them off in Indiana, not that you couldn't have them in Indiana or buy them or sell them in Indiana.May 10 04:30
IsambardPrinceSo you signed a form saying you'd take them out of Indiana to set them off, then nobody actually did.May 10 04:30
IsambardPrinceMinceR, Mom always bought be fireworks to set off. The good "out of state" ones.May 10 04:30
IsambardPrinceLike bottle rockets and roman candles.May 10 04:31
IsambardPrinceI usually set them off unsupervised out in the middle of the cul de sac.May 10 04:31
IsambardPrinceWe had this nosey neighbor lady that called the police on me and they just drove by and one leaned his head out of the squad car and asked me to please stop setting them off.May 10 04:32
IsambardPrinceBut what he actually said was please stop setting them off in the street.May 10 04:32
IsambardPrinceSo I told him I would, and I went out to the ditch in our back yard and continued setting them off.May 10 04:32
IsambardPrinceI didn't lie. I said I would quit setting them off in the street.May 10 04:33
IsambardPrinceThe world was full of women like that back then. The husband worked and the woman never left the house.May 10 04:34
IsambardPrinceSo all she did was cook and clean and read magazines and figure out ways to spend the husband's money.May 10 04:35
IsambardPrinceBut those sorts were getting pretty old by the time I was a child, so their children had moved out and there was nothing for the woman to do anymore really.May 10 04:35
IsambardPrinceThe husband was usually retired too.May 10 04:35
IsambardPrinceBack when you could retire.May 10 04:36
IsambardPrinceSocial Security doesn't pay much because it's a relic from a time when companies were expected to continue providing for their former employees through the pension plan.May 10 04:36

schestowitz[TR2]IsambardPrince: typos above?May 10 07:35
IsambardPrinceI didn't see any.May 10 07:46
IsambardPrinceThose tariff price hikes are catastrophic to something like Xbox. It's something people don't even need. They're not even just limiting these $200 and $250 price hikes to the damn console.May 10 07:47
IsambardPrinceBut to plastic discs with games, or downloaded games with DRM that gon't get manufactured and imported on discs at all.May 10 07:47
IsambardPrinceIt costs Microsoft less than ever to distribute games. They just make you download it into a console which has no other purpose than DRM which now costs $250 more in one go than it did before.May 10 07:48
IsambardPrinceAnd so they raise the price on games by something like $10-$20 each too? May 10 07:48
IsambardPrinceTo compensate for the $0 it costs to put them on media, pay retailers, etc. May 10 07:49
IsambardPrinceRight.May 10 07:49
IsambardPrinceThey don't even pay that anymore so they could lower prices if they wanted to on the games and still come out level.May 10 07:49
IsambardPrinceSo where's the justification for $80 games if you're not even burning the discs in Mexico and putting them on a truck and selling them at a store?May 10 07:50
IsambardPrinceThere's no costs at all. No tariffs.May 10 07:50
IsambardPrinceIt's greedflation.May 10 07:50
*whatA_ has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)May 10 07:51
IsambardPrinceI categorically refuse to buy something that has no other purpose than to download software that I pay that much for, then prevent me from putting it on another computer.May 10 07:52
IsambardPrinceI got burned pretty badly on the Xbox 360 with all the red rings of death until Microsoft replaced like 8 of them, I think under warranty.May 10 07:52
IsambardPrinceThen the replacement died too a few weeks later.May 10 07:52
IsambardPrinceThen I could never keep it running long enough to win a game so I sold it on Craigslist.May 10 07:53
IsambardPrinceThen Microsoft kept charging my credit card for Xbox live and wouldn't even cancel it until I managed somehow to talk to the VP of Xbox.May 10 07:53
IsambardPrinceI'm done. I think I ended up replacing it with a Playstation 2 Slimline I got at a huge discount because the console was on its way out of the stores.May 10 07:54
IsambardPrinceI started picking up PS2 games because there were plenty of used games coming up in secondary markets.May 10 07:54
IsambardPrinceSo I just went to PS2. The graphics weren't as good but the consoles didn't break.May 10 07:54
IsambardPrinceYou can't even buy used games for half price (or less) with the new Xbox consoles.May 10 07:55
IsambardPrinceSo there's no getting out of this with your teeth if you commit to Microsoft.May 10 07:55

IsambardPrince3-4 hours of movie for a small amount of money, in air conditioning you didn't have at home.May 10 08:00
IsambardPrinceIt costs over $17 a ticket now unless you go on the day all the "ghetto people" do.May 10 08:01

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], Or you can just toss in a Blu Ray disc at home and make popcorn and get drinks yourself if you want them.May 10 08:02
IsambardPrinceThe Blu Ray discs cost as little as one-third of one movie ticket.May 10 08:02
IsambardPrinceThe movies are dying and there's many reasons.May 10 08:02
IsambardPrinceThe movies barely run over an hour now, they're not good.May 10 08:02

IsambardPrinceI don't think that's how this works.May 10 08:21
IsambardPrinceMom has a 400 pound 32 year old unemployed virgin living with her.May 10 08:21
IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], His most recent wtf was waiting 3 months to tell her the dentist said he'd need a crown.May 10 08:22
IsambardPrinceThen another dentist said he actually cracked the tooth and he's going to need a root canal or something.May 10 08:22
IsambardPrinceAnyway, she ended up paying the dentist over $4,000.May 10 08:22
IsambardPrinceI was like "Without getting a third opinion?"May 10 08:22
IsambardPrinceThere's a difference between a crown and he's cracked the tooth and needs a root canal and a crown.May 10 08:23
IsambardPrinceI ran Mandy's situation past three dentists.May 10 08:23
IsambardPrinceThe first one was a really corrupt corporate dental chain called Aspen Dental.May 10 08:23
IsambardPrinceThey wanted to max out his insurance then charge me almost $9,000.May 10 08:23
IsambardPrinceSo I asked my dentist about him. He said he'd take a look without charging me anything.May 10 08:24

IsambardPrinceSo we went. He said "Well, I don't take your insurance, so if you want to pay me it would probably be too much money. I recommend finding an in network dentist, but he doesn't even need half of this done."May 10 08:25
IsambardPrinceSo we found an in network dentist, and she agreed with that assessment.May 10 08:25
IsambardPrinceShe also worked with me to come up with a plan to spread everything across two plan years.May 10 08:25
IsambardPrinceAnd it ended up costing me well under half what the Aspen place said.May 10 08:26

schestowitz[TR2]The Tariffs Are Accelerating Microsoft's Decline in ChinaMay 10 21:29
schestowitz[TR2]Judging by the way things are going, there will be considerable adoption of GNU/Linux in years to come, China being one major contributing factor.May 10 21:29
IsambardPrinceAbsolutely. Probably in the US too.May 10 21:29
IsambardPrinceNot just the Windows tax, but the fact that they INCREASED the requirements for Windows 11 which makes the computers more expensive, which means higher tariffs./May 10 21:30
IsambardPrinceSo people will turn to smaller computers that are cheaper but run Linux okay.May 10 21:30
IsambardPrinceThis seems to happen in every country where money is not abundant.May 10 21:30
IsambardPrinceAnd Trump's policies create that effect where money is not abundant and what you have doesn't buy much.May 10 21:31
IsambardPrinceThese tariffs are rat poison for Microsoft's entire business.May 10 21:31
IsambardPrinceBecause everything they need to sell gets more and more expensive.May 10 21:31
IsambardPrinceI wouldn't be surprised if Xbox starts puking up so many write-offs because of the tariffs that it gets lopped off.May 10 21:32
IsambardPrinceYou raise that price enough for the hardware, accessories, games (which no longer have a production cost or tariffs because they're downloads), then eventually people just won't have games, or they'll do what I do and install retroarch and be happy with some emulators that even a Chromebook can handle.May 10 21:33
IsambardPrinceI mean, consider this.May 10 21:34
IsambardPrinceThe 80s and 90s weren't MISERABLE and we had far less technology than we do today.May 10 21:34
IsambardPrinceWe have more technology now than at any point in history, and life has gotten completely miserable, partly because of the technology.May 10 21:34
IsambardPrinceIt's advanced, but that's part of the problem.May 10 21:34
IsambardPrinceIt's advanced to the point where it makes hurting people badly with it, not only possible, but very cheap to do.May 10 21:35
IsambardPrincePeople who develop the things that cause this to happen should be ashamed of themselves.May 10 21:36
IsambardPrinceToo ashamed to brag about it, certainly.May 10 21:36
IsambardPrinceI really can't find a reason to care when Facebook, Microsoft, Apple, Netflix, all these companies, have mass layoffs to hide the fact that it's not going so well internally.May 10 21:37
IsambardPrinceThe better they do, the worse life gets.May 10 21:37
IsambardPrinceWe got along fine when almost nobody even had a computer in the house. People couldn't ignore their neighbors and radicalize on porn and Fox News.May 10 21:37
IsambardPrinceWhen people started getting the internet in their home it wasn't that bad, because the early adopters of things tend to be smarter people.May 10 21:38
IsambardPrinceThen it becomes available to the masses, and they figure out how to make everything much worse.May 10 21:38
