DaemonFCJust a fine and kept on doing the worst stuff anyway.Oct 26 11:05
activelowinstead, this old mozilla regularly was blocked by javascript deadlocks, maybe some trackers and ads injecting wasm and waiting for some responseOct 26 11:06
DaemonFCOn MacRumors, people are saying "success isn't illegal". They're right. It's not. It's how you get successful and stay there that might be illegal.Oct 26 11:06
DaemonFCDoing dirty things and taking shortcuts and locking out your competitors once you reach a certain size can be illegal.Oct 26 11:07
DaemonFCApple is not successful in the App Store because it competes on service or price or convenience or reliability.Oct 26 11:07
DaemonFCIt's successful becasue they convinced a lot of people to buy their product then used that installed base to force developers to take their "deal", onerous app publishing terms and 30% of their profits, or there's the door and don't hit your ass on the way out.Oct 26 11:08
DaemonFCAnd that's very illegal, but Obama and Trump had no intention of prosecuting it.Oct 26 11:08
activelowwell, yes, wasm is probably the basis for the entire "app" business to inject malicious softwareOct 26 11:08
activelowi am not aware of any survey, which blocked all wasm (reliably) and verified which "apps" continued working (discord? youtube? teams? google earth?)Oct 26 11:09

DaemonFCI contacted him a while back because I just wanted to know why he did it. I said it didn't seem feasible that he was going to rewrite an entire OS himself and I was wondering if the whole lawsuit was some kind of a farce in order to get case law that Free Software was beneficial to the "consumer".Oct 26 11:12
DaemonFCAnd he became very evasive about it.Oct 26 11:13
DaemonFCYou can write a small UNIX-like OS with very few resources. Some guy in Chicago did it in Rust, complete with a GUI.Oct 26 11:13
DaemonFCThe big problem comes when you need many thousands of hardware drivers and to port all of this software to it.Oct 26 11:14
activelowand rust/cargo often wrap existing c-libs into cratesOct 26 11:14
DaemonFCWithout software, the computer hums and burns electricity. Without hardware drivers, you may be able to get it to run on a VM if you implement JUST what it needs to do that.Oct 26 11:14
DaemonFCBut that's not useful.Oct 26 11:14
DaemonFCSo you could argue that Redox OS isn't an OS at all.Oct 26 11:15

DaemonFCMinix has that.Oct 26 11:18

DaemonFCLinux isn't reliable enough to deal with situations like these. But those are corner cases.Oct 26 11:19
DaemonFCIn these cases, you need all the reliability you can get even if performance sucks.Oct 26 11:20
DaemonFCAnd you don't need huge compatibility with applications, because you design the few that the system runs and that's all it runs.Oct 26 11:20
DaemonFCTorvalds says it would be sad if Linux didn't become obsolete.Oct 26 11:21
DaemonFCThere was a Sci-Fi show that was like 200 years in the future or something, and the ship was booting up a Linux kernel.Oct 26 11:21
DaemonFCIt wouldn't surprise me.Oct 26 11:21
DaemonFCYou don't just throw out this kind of thing and start all over. The idea of Rust in the kernel is frightening though.Oct 26 11:22
DaemonFCPeople will end up writing new systems in Rust and then those will turn out to be less robust and manageable in the future.Oct 26 11:23
activelowthe idea only gcc or clang can compile linux kernel nowadays, this is the issueOct 26 11:23
DaemonFCThen they may well end up having to chuck that and rewrite it in C anyway.Oct 26 11:23
DaemonFC<activelow> the idea only gcc or clang can compile linux kernel nowadays, this is the issueOct 26 11:23

DaemonFCThe BSDs only support those two.Oct 26 11:24
DaemonFCAnd GCC is considered a secondary option.Oct 26 11:24
activelowDaemonFC: the future is tiny embedded, sdcc compiler, and 8/16bit systemsOct 26 11:24
DaemonFCThey call it deprecated, but unofficially, they make sure you still can compile it with that.Oct 26 11:24
activelowthe modern 32/64bit bloatware is almost dead already, long-termOct 26 11:24
activelowit is only coincidence, 8/16bit systems set a natural limit to blowing up a systemOct 26 11:25
DaemonFCMicrosoft is sure obnoxious.Oct 26 11:25
activelow"micro"softOct 26 11:25
DaemonFCIt would be a lot better if their business, an accounting scandal, just went under forthwith. Oct 26 11:26
DaemonFCTheir finances aren't even as good as Apple's or Google's.Oct 26 11:26
DaemonFCThose two are definitely massively overvalued.Oct 26 11:27
DaemonFCGAFAM is overdue for a dotcom-style recession.Oct 26 11:27
DaemonFCPeople have been throwing money at it for a decade or so just because.Oct 26 11:27
DaemonFCThat's what happened then too.Oct 26 11:27
DaemonFCIt doesn't add value.Oct 26 11:27
activelowthe dotcom bubble never busted, it should have, it didn'tOct 26 11:28
DaemonFCIt just blows up figures on a trading floor screen.Oct 26 11:28
DaemonFCIt blew up, but then before Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft went under, the government started this massive bailout program.Oct 26 11:28
DaemonFCIncluding super low interest rates that the market never would have had.Oct 26 11:29
DaemonFCThe Fed "commands" interest rates, and that's like saying you can dictate whether it will rain today or how fast the wind will blow.Oct 26 11:29
DaemonFCThey really have no control over what interest rates are. They can say they do, but it comes back out somewhere else.Oct 26 11:30
DaemonFCIt's really daylight theft of people's savings through inflation.Oct 26 11:30
activelowthey are accounting for puff in their balance sheetsOct 26 11:30
DaemonFCThe goal, they say, is to goose the economy.Oct 26 11:30
DaemonFCPeople see their savings die and then buy things to avoid some of the pain.Oct 26 11:31
DaemonFCAnd they don't save as much.Oct 26 11:31
DaemonFCThen you have more problems.Oct 26 11:31
DaemonFCPeople having no savings means that people have no stability.Oct 26 11:31
DaemonFCWhen people have no stability, they go into debt.Oct 26 11:31
DaemonFCWhen people go into too much debt, they eventually file bankruptcy and then there's a collapse, and then the government comes in to "save everyone" again, with something even more horrible.Oct 26 11:32
DaemonFCThey call this Keynesian Economics. schestowitz-TR2 ^Oct 26 11:32
DaemonFCThey tell us that sound money, market interest rates, and fiscal responsibility would be insane.Oct 26 11:32
DaemonFCJapan has been going through this for decades and they're not better off than they were in 1990 just because the government has been "saving everyone" for 3 years now.Oct 26 11:33
DaemonFC"My government 'saved' everyone, and all I got was this stupid T-shirt."Oct 26 11:33
DaemonFCMinceR, ^Oct 26 11:33
DaemonFCIt's still far worse to have no savings than it is to just buy pointless shit to avoid having the savings eroded a bit.Oct 26 11:35
DaemonFCIf you save, you lose 2-3% of the value to inflation, per year.Oct 26 11:35
DaemonFCIf you don't, you know, you eventually have the car break down or your husband needs major dental work, and you have no money, so you're financing it at 10-15%.Oct 26 11:36
DaemonFCThey steal way more from people who don't have that buffer.Oct 26 11:36
DaemonFCBecause you are stealing from your future to pay for this week.Oct 26 11:36
DaemonFCThis dental work that Mandy needs is horrible enough *with* insurance.Oct 26 11:37
DaemonFCAnd they're knocking over 50% off the top line figure and then paying ultimately like $3,000 of that, and we'll still be left holding the bag and paying $3,000 or so cash.Oct 26 11:38
activelowlast time i saved, with the plan to rent some office and relocate somewhereOct 26 11:38
DaemonFCIt's a horrible awful no good really bad deal.Oct 26 11:38
DaemonFCThe insurance companies create no value. Some of it is fake discounts too.Oct 26 11:38
activelowi ended up with this money being gone after few month, because, social security is denied with savings, which i didn't plan to rely upon anywayOct 26 11:38
DaemonFCLike the dentists sometimes slip you 20% off if you pay cash. They up their rate and then say you get a huge discount with your insurance.Oct 26 11:39
activelowit would have been better if i had saved *nothing* at all, and bought a car, and went on holidaysOct 26 11:39
activelowinstead i wanted to save for establishing a companyOct 26 11:39
activelowERROROct 26 11:39
DaemonFC<activelow> it would have been better if i had saved *nothing* at all, and bought a car, and went on holidaysOct 26 11:39
activelownever againOct 26 11:39
DaemonFCYes, I was telling mom the other day it would have been better for me if I had been a crook like everyone else in the 2000s.Oct 26 11:40
DaemonFCJust "financed" a house.Oct 26 11:40
DaemonFCLived in it making interest-only payments for 5 years.Oct 26 11:40
DaemonFCLost the house. Oct 26 11:40
DaemonFCHid a bunch of money in a cigar box. You know all those people weren't broke.Oct 26 11:40
DaemonFCThey weren't all so stupid that they didn't know what a 5/1 ARM meant.Oct 26 11:40
activelow5/1 ARM?Oct 26 11:41
DaemonFCYou get an introductory interest rate on a mortgage for 5 years.Oct 26 11:41
DaemonFCThen it adjusts to market rates.Oct 26 11:41
DaemonFCThen it adjusts to some figure plus prime every year.Oct 26 11:41
activelowok, guaranteed interest (it is called differently in germany)Oct 26 11:41
DaemonFCSo, people signed these 5/1 ARMs and a lot of them said just pay this really low interest payment and no principal.Oct 26 11:42
DaemonFCWe won't even check to see if you really do have a job.Oct 26 11:42
DaemonFCSo people had a house, a big one, and for 5 years they were paying a couple hundred bucks a month.Oct 26 11:42
DaemonFCThen the ARM reset in 2007/2008 and suddenly the payment was $1,200 for the mortgage and they lost their house because the bank actually gave the mortgage to a couple people making $7-8 bucks an hour or whatever.Oct 26 11:43
DaemonFCOr they weren't employed at all.Oct 26 11:44
DaemonFCI mean, it was literally everyone gets a house.Oct 26 11:44
DaemonFCNINJA loans.Oct 26 11:44
DaemonFCOr the bank would give a $800,000 house to an electrician and a nursing assistant.Oct 26 11:44
DaemonFCThen it would come due for a reset and the mortgage is suddenly $4,500.Oct 26 11:44
DaemonFCThe bank didn't care.Oct 26 11:45
DaemonFCAs soon as it wrote the mortgage, it scored them as a "solid investment", put them into bonds, and sold the bonds.Oct 26 11:45
DaemonFCIt was off their books and they made a fortune.Oct 26 11:46
DaemonFCThey had no reason to worry about the performance of the loan.Oct 26 11:46
activelowwhat happened to the house and the people living in it?Oct 26 11:48
activelowanywayOct 26 11:48
DaemonFCThey walked off and threw the keys in the mailbox.Oct 26 11:49
activelowsome interesting data, the generous social security, in germany: it is ~1.50EUros monthly calculated for education ~5cents per dayOct 26 11:49
DaemonFCMom's neighbors actually did that.Oct 26 11:49
DaemonFCAnd they left the windows open all winter, and then a tree fell on the house.Oct 26 11:50
DaemonFCThen nobody fixed that and some kids broke in and tore the rest of it up.Oct 26 11:50
DaemonFCThen the bank had to tear it down.Oct 26 11:50
DaemonFCThen the city bought the empty lot and it's an empty lot.Oct 26 11:50

DaemonFCI think lxde should have stayed with GTK.Oct 26 18:33
DaemonFCIt was already written. It could have ported, and Qt is turning out to be a dead end that's under yet another proprietary software company that's doing nasty things with it.Oct 26 18:34
DaemonFCThe way I understand it, lxde came about because some Chinese guy who was using Windows XP didn't like Vista very much.Oct 26 18:34
DaemonFCVista got almost nowhere in China. Oct 26 18:35

psydruidso maybe the common factor is that everything always turns into crapOct 26 18:43
DaemonFCIn Windows 11, depending on the setting you want to change you may need, in roughly this order, the Settings applet, the Legacy Control Panel, Display Configuration, Backup, Backup (Windows 7), gpedit.msc, msconfig, or regedit.Oct 26 18:43

DaemonFCGreat APIs! Fantastic APIs! For the DEVELOPERS! DEVELOPERS! DEVELOPERS!Oct 26 18:52
DaemonFCThese people at Microsoft don't know their ass from next Tuesday about developing their own operating system and we want them monkeying around in the bowels of the Linux kernel, right?Oct 26 18:53
DaemonFCThankfully, most of their crap is only relevant if you want to run Linux as a Guest on Windows for some strange reason, or Windows' Substandard Linux.Oct 26 18:54
psydruidwhy is Win32 even so closely tied to (into?) the kernelOct 26 18:54
DaemonFCIt's not. That's the crazy thing.Oct 26 18:54
DaemonFCWin32 is just an API plug-in.Oct 26 18:54
