[02:24] DaemonFC WalletHub says that the average quote for a 40 year old with GEICO is $40 for what an 18 year old has to pay $237 for, each month. [02:24] DaemonFC And when you think about it, that's a really shitty deal because the 18 year old is probably off to a minimum wage job, or doesn't even have a job and is already trying to deal with student loans. [02:25] DaemonFC In most of the country, taking public transit is impossible. [02:26] DaemonFC So Chicago appeals to young people probably despite the taxes and crime because it has higher minimum wages and you don't strictly need to own a car to get around. [02:26] DaemonFC The car is more of a financial burden on young people. [02:27] DaemonFC After they dig deep to pay six times more for car insurance, they still have the breakdowns, the routine upkeep, the $4.50 Biden gas... [02:30] DaemonFC When I was younger and all of the traditional insurance companies were ripping me off horribly, I went to the direct-sell policies where they cut out the agents and just gave you a cheaper policy. [02:31] DaemonFC I had been paying some fatass slob named John Mettler to do pretty much nothing. I had an accident (drunk hit me) and went to use my rental coverage while my car was in the shop and he tried to stop me from getting a rental car to commute in until I told him I was going to get a lawyer and sue him for breach of contract and lost wages. [02:33] DaemonFC I had to get away from Insuretech again because Root Insurance had been offering me great premiums due mostly to having a very high credit score.

[15:22] DaemonFC I've been averaging 19.65 mpg on the Buick so far mostly city, and the Impala was getting like 16-16.5. [15:22] DaemonFC The Buick is a heavier car, even. [15:23] DaemonFC The 2018 KIA Soul+ averaged like maybe 25 mpg for me. [15:24] DaemonFC So that's actually not all that impressive considering the massive downgrade in quality, driving experience, and engine power and torque you get with the KIA. [15:24] DaemonFC A 2 liter Inline 4 should get much better mpg than a GM 3800 V6 in a Buick that weighs like a KIA and a half. [15:24] DaemonFC But, alas, it does not. [15:26] DaemonFC My guess is that the power to weight ratio on the KIA is not optimal and the transmission (continuously variable) has to run the engine at higher RPMs to produce enough power to actually operate the vehicle responsively. [15:26] DaemonFC And that's turning the thing into a gigantic pig on fuel economy for the class of vehicle it is. [15:28] DaemonFC I hate CVTs, because if you ask too much out of them they usually just go ahead and die and it's really expensive to do a proper rebuild job.

afaik that's more difficult to migrate off shithub than code [16:57] matey netbsd has the most non-free stuff. if youre just starting out and want non-free drivers [16:57] matey i mean when i started with gnu/linux i wanted non-free drivers. the only reason i found out that most things worked pretty well (sometimes better) without them was trisquel made a version with the sugar platform [16:58] matey at the time i was very interested in sugar, and it was because of sugar that i learned python (2009) [16:58] matey it was because of sugar that i started using fully-free distros [16:58] matey before python i was still trying to get by with qbasic and dosbox :) [16:58] matey true story [16:59] IPFS IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 18.15 k/sec., IPFS upstream 56.36 average k/sec., average swarm size 253.80 [16:59] matey of course id spent YEARS looking for an alternative [16:59] matey sugar had a thing aimed at third years called "pippy" ● Apr 23 [17:00] matey it made python easy and accessible (which it is, but it doesnt always LOOK like it is-- also its not in python3, blech) [17:00] matey some people learn python 3 anyway. masochism [17:00] matey its nothing but ironpython ii, microsoft product [17:01] matey they lie and say python 2 isnt supported, when pypy2 supports it (for my needs, and the needs of anyone who wants to use python but doesnt want the rust-like version) [17:01] matey by "rust-like" i mean constantly reinventing itself like some kind of digital grifter or webapi. [17:01] matey i have no use for python 3 [17:01] matey and pypy2 maintains its python2 compatibility, incomplete (but substantial) or otherwise. [17:02] matey like ill take a maintained python 2 over a complete one that has unfixed security holes [17:02] matey i only use the included libraries, and tkinter which is technically also included (needed for idle) [17:03] matey 38% of my file system is code, not including sgml [17:03] matey if you include sgml, more than 70% of my files are code (not including the few things i installed or the many things that came with the system) [17:04] matey so netbsd for non-free and sbcs, with the note that openbsd is WAY more free and netbsd has a fuck-awful installer [17:04] matey and the note that these are starting points, not products [17:05] matey to have a free software movement in the future, we have to start somewhere, and linux is only going to get worse [17:05] matey when you start with that premise it makes things "easy" [17:05] matey but i mean, maybe someone will fork linux. and maintain it. [17:05] matey (but they wont) [17:05] matey its the "maintain it" part i dont believe. you can fork it yourself. [17:06] matey but then what, when people find holes youre going to fix them? [17:06] matey you have a team of people working on that? [17:06] matey its not impossible. its merely so unlikely that we would have to kid ourselves. but i could still be wrong. [17:06] matey we see actual forks of bsd though-- proving that freedom 3 exists in practice, not only in theory [17:07] matey openoffice was forkable, libreoffice exists [17:07] matey but libreoffice decided that they would bloat it up until it was unforkable [17:07] matey and theyre going to be in bed with collabora and gnome if theyre not already [17:08] matey in other words openoffice is forkable but only because its team moved elsewhere [17:08] matey and libreoffice probably isnt [17:08] matey its too big (you can make your own jokes there) [17:09] matey the larger a software package/suite is, the more complicated it is, obviously the larger or more talented (and/or wealthy as they can hire) a team needs to be to fork it [17:09] matey gnu never gave a shit about that [17:10] matey theyve built such a monstrosity (credit to gnu for being an order of magnitude smaller than llvm though) that nearly aims to be unforkable (this isnt about gpl) [17:10] matey s/to gnu/to gcc/ [17:10] matey gcc is a monstrosity too, but not when you compare it to llvm [17:10] matey so credit where credit is due [17:11] matey of course its ibm gcc now :/ and microsoft llvm [17:11] matey and if everybody sells out, TANGIBLE progress wont come until enough people are tired of it [17:12] matey gnu says "you can help by using the software" but they dont say "you can help by forking the software into something easier to maintain" [17:12] matey they want you to lift bricks onto the pyramid [17:12] TR News Gabriel Jesus nearly made it into the PL records today https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_players_with_the_most_goals_in_an_association_football_game#England see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22a_outi3Cs [17:12] TR Bot List of players with the most goals in an association football game - Wikipedia [17:12] TR Bot https://tube.cthd.icu/watch?v=22a_outi3Cs [17:12] TR Bot tube.cthd.icu | Manchester City vs Watford 5 1 Extended Highlights & All Goals 2022 HD - Invidious [17:13] matey until it falls down [17:13] matey i used to make fun of freebasic (it was bait and switch) for the same thing [17:13] matey i said they were building a jenga tower [17:13] matey they started with the goal of compatibility. that was total bait and switch [17:14] matey they got obsessed with c compatibility (to be fair they built it with c, but they wanted to externalise that more-- not really basic at all) and used thin bindings, making "basic" statements with like 16 parameters, are you kidding me? [17:14] matey they just started stacking up features with no coherence at all [17:14] matey it became a monstrosity [17:15] matey and i said they had no plan, no goals, no coherence, and no loyalty to what they set out to do from the start [17:15] matey this is how i found python. i spent the better part of a decade looking for the "basic" of the 21st century [17:15] matey and python was closer to basic than most of the new versions of "basic" coming out [17:16] matey they were even farther from the advantages of basic than python was. [17:16] matey not everyone likes indentation. i solved that one personally. [17:16] matey who wants to import math just to use sin() [17:16] matey i solved that too [17:17] matey but the aftermath of freebasic was [17:17] matey i fled to qb64, then to python [17:18] matey years later, the fb authors are telling people "you probably want python" and freebasic is "more of an art project" [17:18] matey you know what happens to every new basic language? every single one?
