[01:21] DaemonFC I love how they raised the prices on everything and make you clip coupons to get the old price. And if you don't buy in bulk and shove it away, you get to pay them a lot more when they decide there's no coupons for a while.

[01:45] reptilian_thrills i mean, its a complete non-strategy for doing completely nothing [01:45] reptilian_thrills but then in 40 years if it works, he will say "yes, we wrote many articles about this" [01:45] reptilian_thrills "we knew github was wrong all along" [01:46] reptilian_thrills github is old projects, dont worry about it [01:46] reptilian_thrills i mean this isnt COMPLETELY accurate, im making fun of the absurdity of it [01:47] reptilian_thrills after all this is techrights, where "we" fix all the problems with tech by saying theyre dying. [01:47] reptilian_thrills ibm: really bad. but dying [01:47] reptilian_thrills many layoffs, spending "losing" so much money [01:47] reptilian_thrills github: dead real soon now [01:48] reptilian_thrills google: just hasnt been able to get its shit together after mjg left (i mean mjg isnt this ridiculous) [01:48] starstreak everything seems to be on github [01:48] starstreak if i boycotted everything on github i may as well stop using computers [01:48] reptilian_thrills everything seems to be on github <- only 80% of it (but things keep moving there, which roys theory doesnt account for very much) [01:49] reptilian_thrills if i boycotted everything on github i may as well stop using computers <- what youre describing of course, is a monopoly. [01:49] reptilian_thrills and while its true that boycotting a monopoly means that you wouldnt have anything to use... [01:49] reptilian_thrills the whole point of free software was to fight monopoly and control of users [01:50] reptilian_thrills the whole point of open source was to get free software to kiss and make up with its SOLE opponent (companies/devs that control users with software) and end the movement [01:50] reptilian_thrills apparently. and its done that. [01:50] reptilian_thrills so now everything is ibm and microsoft [01:51] reptilian_thrills but EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE A MONOPOLY-- thats ok! because theyre on their last legs now [01:51] reptilian_thrills this total subversion of the fsf and gnu is just a desperate cry for help before ibm/microsoft finally falls over [01:51] reptilian_thrills leading to a magical future of freedom for everyone [01:52] reptilian_thrills because, of course, they spent lots of money and fired lots of works, which AS WE ALL KNOW is invariably a sign of impending DOOM for megacorporations [01:52] reptilian_thrills i mean ibm has been the very mascot of layoffs for decades-- but NOW its going to kill them. really! [01:52] reptilian_thrills because they laid off ONE TOO MANY workers this time. [01:53] reptilian_thrills oops! sorry ibm, better luck in the next life [01:53] reptilian_thrills ibm: its not our fault, we were just dying so much we had no choice ofc [01:54] reptilian_thrills "really we have to lean on apple to bail us out constantly-- only roy knows this" [01:55] reptilian_thrills to be fair, there is a website where former/current employees bitch about ibm all the time-- with good reason [01:55] reptilian_thrills and thats good [01:55] reptilian_thrills but again, ibm has been the king of layoffs since they laid of millions of workers with poison gas and turned that into profit [01:56] reptilian_thrills and society seems to be (mostly) ok with that [01:56] reptilian_thrills not that they should be. just that it hasnt really affected their bottom line [01:56] reptilian_thrills no one says "well id be ok with ibm except for the whole holocaust thing" [01:58] reptilian_thrills maybe some antifa can go punch ibm, idk [01:59] IPFS IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 14.96 k/sec., IPFS upstream 145.15 average k/sec., average swarm size 132.66 [01:59] reptilian_thrills that seems to work best on "little nazis" though, not big ones [01:59] *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving) [01:59] *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving) [01:59] starstreak Roy can go beat up ICBM with his beefy muscles [01:59] reptilian_thrills great idea [01:59] reptilian_thrills could work ● Oct 18 [02:00] reptilian_thrills techrights: we literally beat ibm into submission [02:04] DaemonFC They changed the recipe for Smart Balance margarine. [02:04] DaemonFC It's still $4.54 per tub, but 13 ounces instead of 16. [02:04] DaemonFC And the new recipe doesn't even melt in the microwave. [02:04] reptilian_thrills i wish people were more strategic about boycotts. it often doesnt have to be 100%, just enuogh to hurt them badly [02:04] reptilian_thrills you know this place used to be called boycott novell? [02:05] DaemonFC BoycottSmartBalance.github.io dot mjg59_ [02:05] reptilian_thrills but that whole strategy was from someone else, it was from bruce perens [02:05] reptilian_thrills and perens doesnt want to fight github [02:05] DaemonFC It not only doesn't melt in the microwave, it's transphobic! [02:05] reptilian_thrills or ibm [02:05] DaemonFC You look at this shit and there's no trans fats anywhere! [02:06] reptilian_thrills actually, thats not entirely fair. he MAY support devuan, so thats fighting ibm. [02:06] reptilian_thrills credit where credit is due. [02:06] reptilian_thrills maybe boycott novell should have boycotted red hat too [02:06] DaemonFC That's not just transphobic. [02:07] reptilian_thrills but i supposed theres a difference between turning your back on mono because its a plot for microsoft to control free software [02:07] DaemonFC They don't want the trans fats! [02:07] DaemonFC That's discrimination against TWO groups, by my count! [02:07] reptilian_thrills and turning your back on the init avalance because its a plot for ibm to control free software [02:07] reptilian_thrills after all, ibm is on its last legs... [02:07] reptilian_thrills plus, another key difference is, mono was a big thing back when the fsf gave a fuck about freedom [02:08] reptilian_thrills they stopped caring before systemd took over debian in 2015/15 [02:08] reptilian_thrills 2014/15 [02:08] reptilian_thrills so bn was about doing something the fsf gave a shit about [02:08] reptilian_thrills and if the fsf doesnt give a shit if free software is getting hosed, why should we? [02:09] reptilian_thrills open source won! [02:09] reptilian_thrills and the grand prize is microsoft has an 80% controlling interest [02:09] reptilian_thrills yay [02:10] reptilian_thrills so glad we found a way to prop up an evil megacorp with sweatshop labour-- AGAIN [02:10] reptilian_thrills so you see, thats just not as important as mono. [02:10] reptilian_thrills mono was literally the antichrist [02:10] reptilian_thrills this is just a minor nuisance [02:13] *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) [02:17] DaemonFC They watered down their margarine. The new stuff is a semi-liquid that you can't melt in the microwave, but people were saying if you crack the package, then it comes "oozing out". [02:17] DaemonFC This is one reason I buy butter. [02:17] DaemonFC There is a legal definition of butter. [02:17] DaemonFC If you buy butter, it cannot legally fall outside of the definition of butter, or they can't sell it as butter anymore. [02:18] DaemonFC There's no regulations about what "buttery spread" is. There might be some about "margarine" because I noticed very few brands say "margarine" on the package. [02:18] DaemonFC So they can skirt labeling laws and cheat the customer easier. [02:19] DaemonFC With the new formulation, they only use about 2/3rds as much vegetable oil. [02:19] DaemonFC Since the product's main ingredient is not water, they have to list water as the first ingredient. [02:19] DaemonFC So I started looking around and it seems all butter substitutes are doing this. [02:20] DaemonFC I wonder if the stuff in a stick is different. [02:20] IPFS () Planet Gemini updated.

I'm looking at stick vs tub margarine. [02:22] DaemonFC And for the volume, you get cheated with water when you buy the tub stuff. [02:22] DaemonFC And since there's no trans fat in water, that statement is technically true, because they're cheating you. [02:23] DaemonFC Charging you a price where you expect a certain volume of vegetable oil (margarine) and replacing it with water, which doesn't cost them anything. [02:24] DaemonFC Walmart lists "Kerrygold Irish Butter" which is like butter except you pay for a pound of butter and only get half a pound of butter. :) [02:25] *u-amarsh04 (~amarsh04@22agg6qj8dxhg.irc) has joined #techrights [02:25] DaemonFC For some reason, restaurants and caterers use it, and I can't tell any difference between Great Value and Kerrygold. [02:26] DaemonFC I started buying butter in two pound containers to try to save money in spite of hyperinflation. [02:27] DaemonFC You save about 30 cents per pound that way vs. buying it one pound at a time. [02:27] DaemonFC Just toss in the freezer. [02:27] reptilian_thrills despite roy trying to paint me as a champion of permissive licensing in august 2020, all this copyleft-is-outdated-and-useless sentiment around the coup seems a lot like old (open source) wine in new (free software/coup) wineskins [02:28] reptilian_thrills esr was basically like "ffs could we just make everything public domain? lol copyleft is stoopid" for years, AGES ago [02:29] reptilian_thrills i want a scientific evaluation of copyleft. however, im pretty confident that such an approach would show tht copyleft is not useless. [02:29] DaemonFC The thing that really pisses me off about butter, if I had to pick something, is how restaurants bring you dinner rolls and pats of butter, right? Then they take the butter pats directly out of the fridge and bring them to your table. [02:29] reptilian_thrills im even doing research RIGHT NOW that can shed some light on this-- incidentally. its not a goal, its a result. [02:29] DaemonFC Fucking Health Department. [02:29] reptilian_thrills a possible result. the data isnt in yet. [02:29] DaemonFC I keep a stick of butter on the counter and don't even track how long it's been on the counter. [02:30] DaemonFC I'm still here. [02:30] DaemonFC If I want to butter my toast with it in three weeks, that's what I do! [02:30] DaemonFC How the hell can't they take the butter pats out of the fridge for a while given their expected customer volume? [02:30] DaemonFC That's all I'm asking. [02:30] reptilian_thrills im neither a copyright nor a copyleft maximalist-- the very existence of the lgpl proves theres a place for relaxing copyleft. [02:31] reptilian_thrills it is a partial copyleft license. [02:31] DaemonFC If it's still fine for me at home three weeks out of the fridge, it's not going to hurt anyone if it's been out an hour to soften. [02:31] reptilian_thrills but the rhetoric of the present brigade seems to all be towards cutting copyleft off at the knees and consigning it to the dustbin of history while pretending to support it in some way [02:32] reptilian_thrills which is absolutely fine btw, IF copyleft serves no purpose. but i dont think any honest argument can prove htat. [02:32] reptilian_thrills its sheer opportunism [02:32] reptilian_thrills and despite me saying this, roy will (most likely) continue to lump me in with these people im criticising [02:32] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], So we were at that party and they brought us Kerrygold Irish Butter of course, and it was fucking almost frozen, and everyone else was mangling their dinner rolls trying to mash it in. And I stood up and got a cup of hot water from the coffee/tea table and put the butter in the hot water. [02:32] DaemonFC Then buttered my dinner rolls. [02:32] reptilian_thrills because my operating system happens to have a particular license. [02:32] DaemonFC I can't believe that out of a room with 100 people in it, I was the only one to think of this. [02:33] reptilian_thrills even though my operating system is also the basis for an fsf-approved distribution for fucks sake. [02:33] reptilian_thrills cheers, roy [02:34] reptilian_thrills my primary concern about copyleft is the same as mincers [02:34] starstreak reptilian_thrills, systemd is cool, its like having the master control program on my pc. [02:34] reptilian_thrills reptilian_thrills, systemd is cool, its like having the master control program on my pc <- you are a legitimately funny person and you make me smile [02:35] starstreak :) [02:35] reptilian_thrills /me wouldnt care about systemd if it were optional like good software is [02:36] reptilian_thrills but its designed not to be optional but to take over everything [02:36] starstreak im waiting for systemd-waylandd [02:36] reptilian_thrills and i said that before it (predictably) took over everything [02:36] reptilian_thrills im waiting for systemd-waylandd <- me too [02:36] reptilian_thrills the systemd takeover was a lot like the iraq war [02:37] reptilian_thrills devuan said it would take 2 weeks [02:37] reptilian_thrills most people said it wouldnt do any harm [02:37] reptilian_thrills critics said it would create a power vacuum, destabilise the region and that we would be sucked into this bullshit for years. [02:37] reptilian_thrills and for both the iraq invasion and systemd, the critics were spot-on [02:38] reptilian_thrills and to this day most people arent bothered [02:38] reptilian_thrills its a crime against humanity (so is the iraq invasion) but most people arent bothered by that either [02:39] reptilian_thrills /me waits for dr sixel to find a way to darvo this [02:39] reptilian_thrills hes against systemd too, but only because it isnt german [02:40] TR News Yesterday's #boycottnovell-social and #techpol IRC logs ready.

They end up paying me $1 or $2 to take it (discounts/credit card points) and it creates paid work for someone by bulking up my shopping trips. [07:30] DaemonFC But it adds a lot of things that are pretty bizarre that I never would buy. [07:30] *horseface (~horseface@6mq2tv3iwewvy.irc) has joined #techrights [07:30] schestowitz[TR] I realised yesterday very little data gets collected on what we buy [07:31] DaemonFC Like $6 packs of sports drinks. [07:31] schestowitz[TR] the bank statements are like a repeat of bills, mostly same prices too [07:31] schestowitz[TR] insurance companies will certainly pay to know what goes into your body [07:31] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], The 2008 Buick has about the right amount of technology. [07:31] schestowitz[TR] so that they can DISCRIMINATE against you [07:32] DaemonFC It doesn't have "touchscreens". [07:32] DaemonFC And "Android". [07:32] schestowitz[TR] so the "savings" you make with "loyalty" cards can become losses when insurance policy is handed over [07:32] DaemonFC Yes, because they may buy your grocery bills and do risk-based pricing for health insurance or something. [07:33] DaemonFC Right now, they just basically lump people into two groups. [07:33] schestowitz[TR] there's "no free lunch" [07:33] DaemonFC Smokers and Non-Smokers. [07:33] schestowitz[TR] "dude, what's in your lunch???" [07:33] schestowitz[TR] "what's in your fridge?"

[07:34] DaemonFC As far as how I drive. [07:34] schestowitz[TR] why should they know? [07:34] DaemonFC 115 is the highest score, I was rated as a 109. [07:34] schestowitz[TR] you probably have some malware on a "phone" you drive with [07:34] DaemonFC Yep. [07:34] schestowitz[TR] and they force you to pay more to not have one [07:34] DaemonFC They make you pay more to refuse it. [07:34] schestowitz[TR] maybe they even fake the score [07:34] schestowitz[TR] to stroke your ego [07:35] schestowitz[TR] so that's another reason not to buyy a car anymore [07:35] DaemonFC So basically if you refuse, it automatically assumes you're a really shitty driver and charges you like you got a bad score. [07:35] schestowitz[TR] you get penalised for not having malware [07:35] schestowitz[TR] here, energy costs more for not having a spymeter at home [07:35] schestowitz[TR] but we need energy [07:35] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], I figure several months of $30 electric bills now that I don't need the air conditioner anymore for a while.

[07:36] schestowitz[TR] malware is the new business model it seems [07:36] schestowitz[TR] yesterday at the bank some idiotic teller asked me, [07:36] schestowitz[TR] "what's your mobile nuumber?" [07:36] schestowitz[TR] I said I don't have one [07:36] DaemonFC I need to go by the laundromat to wash out that sleeping bag from last winter.

[07:36] schestowitz[TR] I do NOT have a "smart" phone (or mobile phone at all) [07:37] schestowitz[TR] then she asks if I use "the site" [07:37] schestowitz[TR] I said no [07:37] schestowitz[TR] because she wanted to avoid printing one single sheet of paper [07:37] schestowitz[TR] of course she did printing one at the end [07:37] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], I use digital coupons a lot. [07:37] schestowitz[TR] now they get stingy when it comes to an a4 sheet of paper [07:37] schestowitz[TR] and some toner [07:37] schestowitz[TR] the paper is useful as it can last decade [07:38] DaemonFC Mom was laughing because she came over and saw a closet full of brand name top shelf laundry supplies, dish soaps, body washes, etc. [07:38] DaemonFC Cat food.

[07:38] schestowitz[TR] brb [07:39] DaemonFC iBotta tracked how many rebates I cashed out on in the past year. [07:39] reptilian_thrills they also said they're make a better savannah <- instead gnu.fools trafficked some projects to Zemlin and Sheela Microsoft (LF) <- The frauds <- yep [07:39] DaemonFC It was over $650 just buying stuff I needed anyway. [07:39] reptilian_thrills however, i wont be shocked if they actually create a viable savannah alternatve [07:39] reptilian_thrills because its not that fucking hard. savannah was sourceforge. [07:40] schestowitz[TR] they started with gitlab [07:40] schestowitz[TR] but it's no good [07:40] schestowitz[TR] it's a sdoup of JS [07:40] reptilian_thrills then matt lee (coup, fsf staff) pushed gitlab i think [07:40] schestowitz[TR] and has "enterprise" (proprietary) edition [07:40] DaemonFC Well, schestowitz[TR] I think the grocery stores like digital coupons for a number of reasons. [07:40] reptilian_thrills yeah shitlab is awful [07:40] schestowitz[TR] they should use and improve gitea/gogs [07:40] DaemonFC One is it lets them advertise suuuuuper low prices. [07:40] schestowitz[TR] but to improve it... github [07:40] reptilian_thrills sure [07:40] reptilian_thrills but they were talking about gitea [07:40] DaemonFC Because the barrier "clicking on things" means less people actually get that price. [07:40] reptilian_thrills and the person in charge of that seemed sincere enough [07:41] schestowitz[TR] i heard they had considered gitlab as the base [07:41] reptilian_thrills a move to gitlab would be tragic [07:41] reptilian_thrills id rather use savannah [07:41] schestowitz[TR] yes, they oppose JS garbage [07:41] reptilian_thrills of course... theres a bigger problem [07:41] schestowitz[TR] but iirc, years ago gitlab was not as JS-heavy [07:41] reptilian_thrills in that gnu developers dont give a shit about freedom anymore [07:41] reptilian_thrills no gitlab wasnt this bad always [07:41] schestowitz[TR] i used to be able to browse gitlab repos [07:42] reptilian_thrills but javascript is like prices-- they only increase [07:42] schestowitz[TR] then, maybe 2 years ago, that stopped [07:42] reptilian_thrills yeah [07:42] reptilian_thrills when a project is on gitlab i dont even look at the repo [07:42] schestowitz[TR] even more of github becomes inaccessible now [07:42] schestowitz[TR] due to [07:42] schestowitz[TR] 1) JS [07:42] reptilian_thrills i just download the whole fucking tarball [07:42] reptilian_thrills its easier [07:42] schestowitz[TR] 2) browser not compatible [07:43] reptilian_thrills yeah github already doesnt work if you dont run non-free js [07:43] reptilian_thrills and the gnu devs (some) are bullshit about this [07:43] reptilian_thrills like you cant get dates (maybe) or contributor names.

[22:33] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], I thought a cop was following me earlier. So I drove real friendly, you know. [22:33] DaemonFC I made several turns on purpose to see if he followed me and he did and eventually 6 miles later, he gave up and left.

[22:38] DaemonFC "Martell made admissions to the police and told them she got the gun a month prior for safety reasons, DeRosa said." [22:38] DaemonFC LOL [22:39] DaemonFC She wasn't even shooting anyone with it. She fired it into the air and started a police investigation. So obviously it did not keep her safe from them. [22:40] DaemonFC "The woman does not have a Firearm Owners Identification Card or a concealed carry license; however, only filed a misdemeanor charge for the possession of the gun was filed. [22:40] DaemonFC When asked by the judge why only the misdemeanor was filed, DeRosa said the states attorneys office approved felony charges for the gun possession. [22:40] DaemonFC As of Tuesday, court records show the aggravated unlawful use of a weapon charges have not been filed. [22:40] DaemonFC Lake County Judge Theodore Potkonjak noted during the bond hearing that Martell has a pending drug case in Ohio." [22:40] DaemonFC They aren't going after her with a felony because the prosecutor is a Democrat and she's a Mexican. [22:40] DaemonFC If she was a white man her ass would be grass, and the prosecutor would be the lawnmower. [22:41] DaemonFC Of course, Ohio will probably demand extradition and they will hit her with a felony and we won't hear about her for a while.

[23:00] DaemonFC I was a lifelong Democrat until a few years of living in Illinois. They've gone completely off the rails with these "crime bills" especially and they can have my vote again if they ever start making sense. I've already voted for Bailey, and then the Lake County Clerk "election judges" tried to throw out my vote for "signature mismatch" and I had to march down and correct it in person anyway. [23:00] DaemonFC If Bailey doesn't win it'll be because they challenged all the ballots for "signatures" for him and count on people not all showing up to fix it, and then they have two whole weeks of stuffing the boxes with fake ballots for Pritzker and calling them "late arrivals"."
