DaemonFCbritney, I'm taking the 2008 Minnesota election as proof that there are lizard people.Jul 21 00:12
DaemonFCIn awarding Al Franken the contested ballot, the judge admitted that lizard people are real and Al Franken is one of them.Jul 21 00:12
DaemonFCBy simple deductive reasoning that Norm Coleman didn't get the ballot, we can conclude that Coleman isn't a lizard person.Jul 21 00:13
DaemonFCTherefore, there's a way to flush out the lizard people.Jul 21 00:13
DaemonFCIn every election on the ballot that has a Write-In candidate, we need to either start a Write-In campaign to put "Lizard Person" in the space provided and then checkmark all of the listed candidates.Jul 21 00:14
DaemonFCThen we force a recount and see which "person" the judge awards the ballot to, and they're the Lizard Person, because the law says the intent of the voter is what should prevail.Jul 21 00:15
DaemonFCMinceR, ^Jul 21 00:15
britneyDaemonFC, fair enoughJul 21 00:15
DaemonFCOnly one person needs to have put "Lizard Person" in order to contest the ballot during a recount and see how the judge rules.Jul 21 00:16
britneyI think there are two major factors in lizard peopleJul 21 00:16

britneyRoy's bot is still broken lolJul 21 00:18
MinceRif there were two votes for two different people, even with one of them crossed out, it would have been an invalid vote, but since both votes are for the same person, it counts?Jul 21 00:18

*SomeH4x0r is now known as techuserJul 21 00:52
britneyboth play humanity like a giant game of chessJul 21 00:52
DaemonFCTwo votes plus Lizard People = Whoever the judge awards it to is a Lizard Person / One Vote Plus Lizard People = If judge decides it's valid, that means the person who gets it is a Lizard Person / Lizard Peopls plus three votes = The person who got the vote is a Lizard Person, but we can't rule out the other two either. / Lizard People plus multiple votes and judge throws it out....Nobody gets the vote, but none of them are Lizard People.Jul 21 00:52
MinceRbritney: how do i vote for Cthulhu?Jul 21 00:52
britneyMinceR, write it inJul 21 00:53
MinceRDaemonFC: what's the legal principle behind all this?Jul 21 00:53
DaemonFCIntent of the voter, plus the fact that the judge is definitely a lizard person but is bound by Admiralty Law due to the courts being replaced by the Corporate State.Jul 21 00:53
DaemonFCOr so I'm told.Jul 21 00:53
DaemonFCSo the judge definitely knows which one is the Lizard.Jul 21 00:54
DaemonFCThey don't allow non-Lizard judges. In fact, if you ever hire an Attorney, he's a Lizard too. That's why you don't understand a thing they're talking about up there. They say it's Latin, but that's only because Latin is a corrupt form of the Lizard Language. The people in the Roman Empire were given their civilization by the Lizards.Jul 21 00:55
DaemonFCThey only lost it when the Lizard People went into the Lizard Schism.Jul 21 00:56
MinceRDaemonFC: what's the rule on voting for multiple people at the same time?Jul 21 00:56
DaemonFCThat's why Rome fell, but the schools don't teach history.Jul 21 00:56
DaemonFC<MinceR> DaemonFC: what's the rule on voting for multiple people at the same time?Jul 21 00:56
DaemonFCLegally, it spoils the ballot unless the voter's clear preference can be unambiguously determined. So if you also say you want the Lizard People, then your intent can be determined.Jul 21 00:57
britneyhistory = his story, or hi storyJul 21 00:57
MinceRDaemonFC: i seeJul 21 00:57
*MinceR goes to learn some lizardryJul 21 00:57
DaemonFCDonald Trump was overthrown before he could unmask who the pedophiles and Lizard people were. It turned out that Mike Pence was a pedophile lizard and that that's why people wanted to hang him.Jul 21 00:58
MinceRLizard People + 3 votes can get thrown out even if more than 1 of those people is a lizardJul 21 00:58
MinceRsince it's ambiguous (you wanted Lizard People, but which?)Jul 21 00:58
MinceRalso... They're taking the DMT to Isengard!Jul 21 00:59

DaemonFCBut could you slip in that the judge's preferred Lizard candidate should get the ballot?Jul 21 00:59
DaemonFC:)Jul 21 00:59
DaemonFCOr that you don't mind which Lizard Person gets it as long as it's a Lizard Person?Jul 21 01:00
MinceRi don't think your system has that optionJul 21 01:00
DaemonFCI don't know if you ever run out of space to type.Jul 21 01:00

britneyhow is it malware?Jul 21 01:59
earthlingand those offer a malware execution runtime on top, with wasmJul 21 01:59
earthlingbecause it meets the definition of malware 100%Jul 21 02:00
earthlingincluding Epiphane which FSF promotes, shame on themJul 21 02:00
earthling*EpiphanyJul 21 02:00
britneywhat is your definition of malware?Jul 21 02:00
earthlingit is pure malice, don't know where to beginJul 21 02:01
britneyokJul 21 02:01
earthlingfirst, it is impossible to review the monstrosityJul 21 02:01
britneyim guessing your definition of malware is, doesn't run on a pentium4 or less ?Jul 21 02:02
earthlingchromium, how much is it, the source bundle... more than 1GiB of crap delivered once or twice a weekJul 21 02:02
britneyI use firefox and braveJul 21 02:02
earthlingit is impossible to review, regardless of if a pentium4 could run it or notJul 21 02:02
earthlingand a pentium4 can btw.Jul 21 02:02
britneydo you actually review the code of all the software you run?Jul 21 02:02
earthlingfurthermore, _all_ those "browsers" in fact are nowadays a runtime, mostly for malicious code, unverifiable loaded onto the users computerJul 21 02:03
earthlingit is pure evilJul 21 02:03
earthlingbtw. it is GNOME/Epiphany, althoug i do not distinguish gnome/fsf/gnuJul 21 02:03
earthlingi would stuff them into a sack all at once, zip it, and grab a baton to beatJul 21 02:04
earthlingimpossible to hit anyone errornously insideJul 21 02:04
britneyok so we know you use w3m/links/lynx but what about irc client and mail client?Jul 21 02:04
earthlingmutt mailer seems decentJul 21 02:05
earthlingand there is other options availableJul 21 02:05
earthlingwith irc i prefer catgirlJul 21 02:05
earthlingi think weechat and irssi linked against Glib and similar... no thanksJul 21 02:05
britneyyeah, my favourite text based e-mail client is alpine but I still use claws-mail because I prefer GUI based appsJul 21 02:05
earthlingi would have wanted to keep GTK, yet decided with the harfbuzz dependency chain a red line again was crossed by some other entities inside the sack of freedom to beat ontoJul 21 02:06
earthlingredhat,google,facebookJul 21 02:06
earthlingGTK is missing standardization, and with GTK4 ahead i decided away with it once and for allJul 21 02:08
earthlinginitially, i didn't intend to wipe Glib for exampleJul 21 02:09
earthlingyet when i realizded GNU/FSF/Gnome promote pure evil such as webkit/epiphanyJul 21 02:09
earthlinghey why not, simply check the origin, GNU/FSF license banner somewhere... away with itJul 21 02:10
britneyI'd rather use Gnome than KDEJul 21 02:10
britneyearthling, what are you using for a GUI?Jul 21 02:10
earthlingyaft and dvtm terminal multiplexerJul 21 02:10
earthlingi would accept X11 and motif widget toolkit still, yet there isn't any benefit with those anymoreJul 21 02:11
earthlingif anyone was interested in repairing the netsurf-motif port to gentoo/linux prepared... that could be one candidate to reconsider X11 and motif at leastJul 21 02:12
britneywait a secondJul 21 02:12
britneyyou don't use XORG, X11 or Wayland?Jul 21 02:12
earthlingwith X11, jwm window manager was ok, as far as dependencies were concernedJul 21 02:12
earthlingbritney: none of it, yes.Jul 21 02:12
britneyoh wow, you're hardcore Jul 21 02:12
earthlingalthough, i would accept X11/motif/jwmJul 21 02:12
earthlingGNOME however is pure evilJul 21 02:13
earthlingit wasn't, yet it has becomeJul 21 02:13
britneyhow is gnome "pure evil"Jul 21 02:13
earthlingharfbuzz/c++, and systemd/dbusJul 21 02:13
earthlingX11 with jwm isn't that bad, although Xorg too was affected by some systemd clutter (evdev, and who knows what else)Jul 21 02:14
earthlingi still got the 100% clean no-systemd/no-udev/no-dbus X11/GTK profile archivedJul 21 02:15
earthlingno other distro got thatJul 21 02:15
earthlinghowever, i am not willing to maintain pentagon malwareJul 21 02:15
britneyhow is the pentagon involved in udev and dbus?Jul 21 02:16
britneyi can understand why people don't like systemd but what does udev and dbus fit into thisJul 21 02:16
MinceRgnome has the MICROS~1 attitude >> https://imgur.com/pYuj8tWJul 21 02:16
earthlingattention, besides technical facts, this is my opinion: systemd/dbus are a spyware middleware infrastructureJul 21 02:16
earthlingbrought to you by and promoted with FSF/GNU label, or am i mistaken about this "minor" little detail?Jul 21 02:18
earthlingand even if, there is good arguments to be made, for LAWFUL INTERCEPTIONJul 21 02:18
earthlingnonetheless, the entire technical design and implementation of this spyware isn't in complianceJul 21 02:18
britneyI think it is insane that gnome removed the system tray iconsJul 21 02:18
DaemonFCschestowitz[TR2], The review of how SeaMonkey is doing is turning into a really long post.Jul 21 02:19
DaemonFCIt's clearly not doing well these days.Jul 21 02:19
psydruidwhat would be totally cool is gnome removing itselfJul 21 02:20
psydruidthat would be the sanest thing they've ever doneJul 21 02:20
DaemonFCYou can make it work, but doing so generally requires advanced knowledge of how to set up a Mozilla-based browser, including creating about:config strings, modifying advanced settings, and looking for "legacy" versions of extensions that will still install and go ahead and work.Jul 21 02:20
earthlingwith seamonkey you'll need even more vile crap to compile this at least, because rust, llvmJul 21 02:21
earthlingwhich is insane amounts of source text impossible to review, maintain, or at least compile in a reasonable timeJul 21 02:22
earthlingor, you're going to tell me "free software" and "opensource" weren't supposed to be reviewed and compiled from source?Jul 21 02:22
earthlingof cause i am not willing to review everything, i only verify if it would be possible at least to dig into source text with an acceptable amount of effort and timeJul 21 02:24
earthlingsome years ago, FSF/GNU too promoted mozilla malwareJul 21 02:25
britneyearthling, are you saying that you've read the source code for w3m/links/lynx ?Jul 21 02:25
earthlingi had to dig into all three of those for one or another reasonJul 21 02:25
earthlingwithy lynx some security advisory cought my attention, with w3m i had some problem with gpm/mouse support etc...Jul 21 02:25
britneymouse support without X11?Jul 21 02:26
earthlingwith links it's still thereJul 21 02:26
earthlingfor w3m i hacked some mouse cursor and paste-buffer into yaftJul 21 02:27
britneyyou have some pretty extreme viewsJul 21 02:27
DaemonFCIt seems that as of 2012, SeaMonkey isn't even a part of Mozilla anymore.Jul 21 02:27
DaemonFCIt's a German non-profit.Jul 21 02:27
earthlingjust some random tasks, which are useful to see, what source text of "free software" is made ofJul 21 02:27
britneyDaemonFC, why are you running SeaMonkey?Jul 21 02:28
*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving)Jul 21 02:29
britneyok lolJul 21 02:29
earthlingi quit with maintaining an outdated seamonkey version when it didn't compile anymore, the build system of it alone is a horror showJul 21 02:29
earthlinga nightmareJul 21 02:29
*DaemonFC (~daemonfc@g64i3ftapqr3g.irc) has joined #techrightsJul 21 02:29
DaemonFCWhy not?Jul 21 02:29
DaemonFCYeah, I noticed Ubuntu dropped SeaMonkey years ago.Jul 21 02:30
britneywhy not firefox?Jul 21 02:30
DaemonFCI was going to mention that in my blog.Jul 21 02:30
DaemonFCI installed it because I noticed Fedora still packages it.Jul 21 02:30

DaemonFCYou could run it on Windows 3.11 with Win32s.Jul 21 06:38
DaemonFCIt was only with IE 6 that that stopped working.Jul 21 06:38
britneyahaJul 21 06:39
DaemonFCMicrosoft did that so they could share the binaries.Jul 21 06:39
britney16-bit mIRC still works too, as long as the irc server doesn't need SSLJul 21 06:39
DaemonFCAll IE 5 had to do was add Win32s to Windows 3.1 and then it ran, and it was the same binaries you had on Windows 9x.Jul 21 06:39
DaemonFCThere were some changes though, iirc.Jul 21 06:39
DaemonFCThe Windows 3.1 package didn't have some features that the platform didn't support.Jul 21 06:40
britneyMicrosoft used to have a BBS where you could download Win32s and other addons and patchesJul 21 06:40
DaemonFCBut there were actually almost no code differences in IE for Windows 3, 9x, and UNIX.Jul 21 06:40
DaemonFCThey ported some of Windows to UNIX to get the Windows code in IE for UNIX to run.Jul 21 06:40
britneylolJul 21 06:41
britneyNow there is Microsoft Edge for LinuxJul 21 06:41
DaemonFCIf you look in the directories, they just pretty much took C:\Windows\System32 (or most of it) and turned them into .so files instead of .dll. Even the names are the same.Jul 21 06:41
britneyYou can get Edge, Powershell and Visual Studio Code for LinuxJul 21 06:41
britneySQL server tooJul 21 06:41
DaemonFCIE for UNIX isn't something many people used because it was almost impossible to keep it working.Jul 21 06:42
DaemonFCIf you didn't have the right "patch level" of Solaris, it would either crash IE or bring down the entire operating system as soon as you launched IE.Jul 21 06:42
DaemonFCI don't know what the situation was for HP-UX.Jul 21 06:42
DaemonFCProbably just as bad.Jul 21 06:42
DaemonFCThen the porting company, MainWin, leaked about a third of the source code to Windows NT4/2000.Jul 21 06:43
DaemonFCThey lost a laptop with Microsoft's porting kit on it from the IE for UNIX project.Jul 21 06:43
DaemonFCAnd it spilled out onto the Internet.Jul 21 06:43
DaemonFCSo there's a lot of source code for Windows out there, at least earlier versions of it, floating around on the Internet.Jul 21 06:44
DaemonFCI think most of Windows XP leaked a couple of years ago.Jul 21 06:44
britneyi vaguely remember thatJul 21 06:45
DaemonFCThe funny part is that you get bugs that go all the way from Windows NT 3.1 to Windows 10 or 11, things like that.Jul 21 06:45
DaemonFCTavis Ormandy found a very serious security problem in NTVDM, the 16-bit version.Jul 21 06:45
DaemonFCThat doesn't affect Windows 11 though, and none of them do.Jul 21 06:45
DaemonFCWhy? Microsoft ripped out all compatibility with Windows 3.1 and earlier and DOS from Windows 11. There's no 32-bit version.Jul 21 06:46
DaemonFCYou can still run all kinds of Windows 3 software in Wine.Jul 21 06:46
DaemonFCI have some. I have the Microsoft Entertainment Packs with things like Chip's Challenge.Jul 21 06:46
DaemonFCIt will still run Office 6.Jul 21 06:47
DaemonFCGeorge R.R. Martin still uses WordStar, for DOS, and it's not even the latest version.Jul 21 06:48
DaemonFCI think someone set it up in DOSBox for him.Jul 21 06:48
DaemonFCHe said he tried to sit down and use Microsoft Office within the past several years and it was so bad it was stopping him from getting anything done.Jul 21 06:49
DaemonFCSo he went back and continued using WordStar.Jul 21 06:49
DaemonFCI remember trying to do my school assignment, and this fucking paperclip pops up and asks if I need any help.Jul 21 06:50
DaemonFCI ended up using StarOffice for a while.Jul 21 06:50
DaemonFCThere were no good, fully featured, office programs, back then. There was basically just Star and Corel if you didn't want to use Microsoft's. I already knew I didn't want to use Corel.Jul 21 06:52
britneyI liked WordPerfectJul 21 06:52
DaemonFCCorel was an interesting company that had a GNU/Linux distribution that went ahead and worked. It had some oddities.Jul 21 06:52
DaemonFCThey replaced the file manager from KDE with "Corel File Manager". I never did see why.Jul 21 06:53
DaemonFCCorel's was proprietary.Jul 21 06:53
britneyWordPerfect 6.1 for Windows 3.x was amazingJul 21 06:54
DaemonFCYeah, but that was Corel at their heyday. Jul 21 06:54
DaemonFCLater on it was just this bizarre office suite that cost a lot of money even though it had no Microsoft compatibility at all, and there was an activation server.Jul 21 06:54
DaemonFCIn the early 2000s, I wrote an article sharply critical of Windows XP.Jul 21 06:55
DaemonFCIt got quite a bit of traffic and I made some commission money on it. I don't think anything backed it up though when Epinions went under.Jul 21 06:56
britneyI think 6.1 might have been Novell Jul 21 06:56

DaemonFCI want to make liver and onions.Jul 21 07:23
DaemonFCProblem is that Mandy won't eat it.Jul 21 07:23
DaemonFCI developed a taste for it when I was in Indiana and I ordered it at the MCL when we were down there.Jul 21 07:23
*aliosablack (~chomwitt@95ruh3zdy2z5q.irc) has joined #techrightsJul 21 07:23
DaemonFCMy parents didn't realize I'd ordered liver and onions for dinner and I took absolute delight in grossing them out by eating liver and onions and iced tea. I was about 8 or 9? They NEVER stopped me from ordering what I wanted off the menu anywhere after that.Jul 21 07:24
DaemonFCIt's one of those things that most people can't get over an instant aversion to that's actually quite good.Jul 21 07:25
DaemonFCbritney: Have you seen that old movie Defending Your Life?Jul 21 07:26
britneynoJul 21 07:26
DaemonFCHe dies in a car wreck and goes to "Judgment City" where they put everyone on trial to see if they grew enough while they were on Earth to move on.Jul 21 07:26
britneythats interestingJul 21 07:28
DaemonFCHe's eating dinner with his lawyer and is curious as to what his lawyer is having. The lawyer says, "Oh you wouldn't like this!" so he gets more insistent on knowing what it is,so the lawyer says he can go ahead and try a bite. So he does, and he spits it out, and the lawyer says "A little bit like dog shit huh?".Jul 21 07:28
DaemonFCHe says, "How can you eat that!?" and the lawyer says "This tastes very different to me than it does to you!". Explains that people who use more of their brain perceive reality very differently from others.Jul 21 07:28
DaemonFCI've noticed that there may actually be something to that!Jul 21 07:29
DaemonFCPeople with higher intelligence eating/drinking a larger variety of foods and beverages.Jul 21 07:29
DaemonFCPeople with lower intelligence sticking to things they know. Simple things.Jul 21 07:30
britneyDaemonFC, would you ever try Crickets?Jul 21 07:30
DaemonFCThe whole movie was based on the trial being about getting over your fears, right? So the fear of embracing something new to eat? Why not?Jul 21 07:30
DaemonFCI noticed my ex rarely deviated from pizza, fried chicken, and ravioli in a can./Jul 21 07:31
DaemonFCAnd when I tried to get him to have something else, he said "Oh I'm fine.". So we could never agree on what to eat even though I CAN cook, and we ate out a lot.Jul 21 07:31
DaemonFCbritneyDaemonFC, would you ever try Crickets?Jul 21 07:32
DaemonFCWell, there's people who do eat crickets, and I suppose that they don't fall over dead. I hear that they're perfectly nutritious.Jul 21 07:32
DaemonFCProperly prepared? I'd probably at least try it. Out of politeness. If I was somewhere and they offered me one.Jul 21 07:32

britneyDaemonFC, do you remember in Demolition Man when John Spartan had a rat burger? "Best damn burger I've had in years"Jul 21 07:34
DaemonFCWell, it was true.Jul 21 07:34
DaemonFCHe had been frozen for over 20 years, right?Jul 21 07:34
britneyyeahJul 21 07:34
DaemonFCSo the rat, being the only burger he'd had in years, was the best.Jul 21 07:34
britneyI don't think thats what he meant thoughJul 21 07:35
DaemonFCNo, but it was also the truth.Jul 21 07:35
britneyhe was speaking of how low quality the beef burgers wereJul 21 07:35

DaemonFCEhh, I'm not picky about my beef.Jul 21 07:36

DaemonFCAKA Extra Value Beef Patties.Jul 21 07:36
DaemonFCWalmart sells them.Jul 21 07:36
DaemonFCI bought some going "These are cheap!" and I put them in my George Foreman grill.Jul 21 07:36
DaemonFCI get all the toppings and buns and the cheese, and I'm all excited for my burgers.Jul 21 07:37
DaemonFCAnd then this orange-ish reddish goo starts ooozing out of the Foreman.Jul 21 07:37
DaemonFCIt was about then that a sickening stench, almost like rotting meat, hit me.Jul 21 07:37

DaemonFCOh those things are naaaaaaasty.Jul 21 07:38
DaemonFCI love liver and onions, if it's a high quality beef liver.Jul 21 07:38
DaemonFCThe "beef patties" said they had heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys.Jul 21 07:39
DaemonFCI was like "Oh my, oh no, no.".Jul 21 07:39

earthlingand it got sixel support too, fully compatible with ssh... nothing extra necessaryJul 21 21:42
prurigrothe colour thing drove me crazy trying to get a nice terminal setup I didn't need to rely on xorg for- and sixel would be super key if you were going full terminal wouldn't itJul 21 21:42
earthlingit's not that simple, nonetheless, sixel support fills a niche nicelyJul 21 21:43
