XRevan86Derek brings up some issues with PulseAudio, but of course they appear in the use-cases where pure ALSA is not a real option. I do expect PipeWire to fare much better under pressure. But he didn't try it yet.Nov 27 00:38

DaemonFCRight after millions just took a third dose of this one.Nov 27 01:10
DaemonFCYou obviously can't just take a shot every 100 days.Nov 27 01:11
DaemonFCIt's over. We got our ass kicked.Nov 27 01:11
DaemonFCBourla can just work from wherever while these CEOs like Tim Cook just tell everyone get the "vaccine" and get back in there and let the customers cough all over you, unmasked.Nov 27 01:11
DaemonFCWe have a lot of turkey left over.Nov 27 01:17
DaemonFCI wonder if they're going to do a repeat for Christmas.Nov 27 01:17
DaemonFCschestowitz, Well, I didn't know if I could get it in my freezer but I knew if I couldn't then I could give it to the church next door. They pass out turkeys and stuff to the poor around this time of year. It beats letting Walmart keep it and chuck it and pour bleach on it or something awful like that either way.Nov 27 01:18

activelowDaemonFC: they are dumping bleach (to clean the toilet with) onto chicken meat?Nov 27 01:41
DaemonFCThey dump it on food they throw out here to keep poor people from running off with it.Nov 27 01:43
activelowchicagoNov 27 01:46
activelowdumpster divers are known in germany too, don't know if it is a mass phenomena alreadyNov 27 01:46
activelowyesterday, i did some calculus again, for my regular mealsNov 27 01:47
activelowwith rice i can lower the costs for nutritionNov 27 01:47
activelow1kg of dried rice is 99cents, 3500kaloriesNov 27 01:47
activelowi calculate with 2000kcal/day, roughlyNov 27 01:47
activelowthis is the receipe nowNov 27 01:48
activelow500grams of rice (1700kcal), two glasses of paprika paste ayvar (500kcal total), and 150grams margarine (1000kcal) Nov 27 01:49
activelowthis is ~3300kcal for two days, plus some fried fish, some tiny sweat snack or similar: 2000kcal total dailyNov 27 01:50
activelowcosts are this: 50cents rice, 30cents margarine, 2euros for paprika, 2euros for fish or snacksNov 27 01:50
activelowthis is roughly 2.50Euros/day for nutrition, plus some tee or coffee (roughly 2euros/week)Nov 27 01:52
activelowanyway, i can keep costs for nutrition below 100Euros/month, and this isn't the bottom endNov 27 01:52
activelowif i had a tiny garden, as it was common in east germany, at least i could enrich the meals with spices (lovage, parsley), some strawberries and whatever else easily growsNov 27 01:53
activelowthat's why i do not eat potatoe soup more often, which i liked as a child, because the spices made this a tasty mealNov 27 01:54
DaemonFCThe Euro is pretty weak now.Nov 27 01:54
activelowforgot it, since i do not smoke tobacco (which was another ~10euros/week), i do chew gums, orbit extra which is another 3euros/weekNov 27 01:55
activelowcannot ditch the nicotine replacement pills yet, when ordered form amazon it is another 30euros/monthNov 27 01:56
activelowchances are, if i am moleted by the corrupt bureaucracy again, i will smoke again for some weeks, when writing the appropriate letters necessary to document thisNov 27 01:57
activelowmolstedNov 27 01:57
*techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)Nov 27 01:58
activelowbtw. i did turn of heating in the entire flat, however this caused an unexpected problem: condensed water at the walls and windowsNov 27 02:02
activelowthe moisture can cause fungus, so i had to turn up heating slightlyNov 27 02:03
activelowin the bathroom and kitchen i can chlorinate the walls to kill all fungus, however i can't in my living room nor am i willing toNov 27 02:04
activelowanyway, bathroom and kitchen remain icy cold during winter, as they had been in the last decades as usualNov 27 02:04
activelowchlorination of kitchen and bathroom is necessary nonetheless, because the substance of the installations and furniture was rotten already when i moved in hereNov 27 02:05
activelowat least chlorination prevents more severe health hazards hereNov 27 02:05
activelowotherwise, i would like some politicians to take a bite from this to enjoyNov 27 02:06
activelowi do keep chlorine consumption low too, by dispersing this, so one bottle of bleach lasts more than 6 month, because chlorinated wate water isn't good for the environment, if it is too muchNov 27 02:07
activelowwasteNov 27 02:07
activelowi am spraying this at the furniture, walls, and floor, wait some minutes for chemistry to do it's job, open the window, and then wash and clean thisNov 27 02:08
activelowbtw. some caution is necessary, because of the high minarl content water here, bathroom requires some treatment with vinegar sometimesNov 27 02:09
activelowso, this cannot be done in parallel of causeNov 27 02:10
*techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@62vhapicsw4ds.irc) has joined #techrightsNov 27 02:10
activelowthere is another potential health hazard with the bathroom here, which i am wondering how this could have ever passed a german regulation for buildings and constructionNov 27 02:11
activelowwhen taking a shower some water residue cannot be avoided to drip, and this leaves water below the washing machine hereNov 27 02:11
activelowadd to this, the silicone sealings seem to have been applied by some child or someone, who knows what they didNov 27 02:12
activelowat one spot it is 5 centimeters thick and smeared silicon seal, and the next spot isn't sealed at all, so it is dripping on rotting wherever chlorine doesn't reachNov 27 02:13
activelowand i cannot easily move the washing machine whenever i had a shower, because it is heavy and the place is constrainedNov 27 02:13
activelownormally, to move away this machine, i would need to do some plumbing work because toilet and other installation prevent moving this machine to clean belowNov 27 02:14
activelowthe rent is rather high too, although the landlord said it isn'tNov 27 02:15
activelowit is more than 500Euros monthly for rent and heating this shitholeNov 27 02:15
activelowalthough, as said, i rarely ever heat this flat hereNov 27 02:15
activelowmost of the costs are calculatd per square meterNov 27 02:15
activeloweven when these are not heatedNov 27 02:16
activelowit is funny somehow, how the whine about public health hazard nowNov 27 02:16
activelowtheyNov 27 02:16
activelowleaving this flat is even worsen than remaining inside, because outside the air is heavily poisoned often, by speeding luxury cars, of the many "poor" migrants hereNov 27 02:17
activelowthis limits my sun exposure to a total of less than 8hours per yearNov 27 02:17
activelowwouldn't want to open any windows during daytime anymore either, because noise and air pollutionNov 27 02:18
activelowwhich was another reason to smoke, because of the disgusting smell of toxic fumesNov 27 02:18
activelowsince i couldn't afford a car, i was cycling in city smog for decadesNov 27 02:18
activelowthe typical routine is this: have a cigarette to sedate sense of smell, and then full speed through the city jam inhaling whatever the modern german automotive industry had to offerNov 27 02:19
activelowalthough, after 20years of this, i've had enough to be honestNov 27 02:19
activelownow they say, i was responisble for myself and my health, and insurance fees must be increased, and of cause since i deny their covid vaccine hospitals may deny treatmentNov 27 02:20
activelowi am still young, 40years now, but can feel one or another mild pain, when this changes some drugs are neither affordable nor legal either in germanyNov 27 02:21
activelowmaybe, if i am running out of cash, i may donor blood (which isn't forbidden because i am not homosexual)Nov 27 02:22
activelowwhoever wants it may have itNov 27 02:22
activelowyesterday i had a phone call with employment agency, and argued with them, why i the f*** i was relocationg for trainsheeps and job placement a dozen timesNov 27 02:27
activelowand now i stranded in this ghetto, with no opportonity, maybe, to do some maths or whatever i wasn't that bad withNov 27 02:28
activelowtold them, i want back my homeland, and if and how this could be arranged, in reponse they said it's all "taxpayers money" and they couldn't arrange for anythingNov 27 02:29

activelow26th January german "CDU" political party scheduled their party convent, which was terminated yesterday, because health, lolNov 27 02:47
activelowdo not feel like visiting any "christmas market" either, wouldn't be allowed to because i am not "2G+ status" (vaccinated, recovered, or PCR tested every 48hours)Nov 27 02:48
*techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@62vhapicsw4ds.irc) has joined #techrightsNov 27 02:50
activelowthey said, next spring, everyone in germany is either: a) vaccinated b) recovered or c) deadNov 27 02:51
activelowhowever, with the vaccination agenda, all of them lied, they *promised* it, no mandatory vaccination, this was their promiseNov 27 02:52
activelowhowever, guess what we have now: vaccination or public transportation deniedNov 27 02:53
activelowand, it isn't only mandatory vaccination, it is mandatory vaccination with the covid spook explicitelyNov 27 02:55
*sepsinn (~sepsinn@c9nu4ummhfn7e.irc) has joined #techrightsNov 27 02:55
activelowmeaning, only the covid vaccine allows public transportation usedNov 27 02:55
activelowany other of the dozens of flu shots, measles, etc... irelevantNov 27 02:56
activelowin fact, anyone may use public transportation and spread measles, or pneumococces, if the covid vaccine status was valid...Nov 27 02:56
*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrightsNov 27 02:58
activelowand covid vaccination must be refreshed at least twice a year. government decided this now: nation-wide lock downs are not possible anymoreNov 27 02:58
activelowhowever, mandatory 2G+ status is to use public transportationNov 27 02:58
activelowwhich means, nation-wide lock-down was less severe than what it is replaced with now: mandatory 2G+ in public transportation (vaccinated or recovered, requireing approval or vaccination every 6month)Nov 27 02:59
activelowtoo, the "local hot-spot" strategy is *worse* than nation-wide lock down, because now they can arbitrarily seal-off any region they desire (which doesn't prevent spreading, but anyway)Nov 27 03:00
activelowat least, i got my bicycle, i can do ~100km per day all-season (4hours slow pace on flat ground), during winter and rainy weather tooNov 27 03:02
activelowproblem is, a bicycle can easily be sabotaged, flat tires, screw the chain or whatever, which can end such an adventure quicklyNov 27 03:05
activelowand bicycle stores are known to lack spare parts, i got some remaining at leastNov 27 03:06
activelowalthough, transport of parts and weight is criticalNov 27 03:06
activelowworst is probably this, to leave all books behind, which i won'tNov 27 03:07
activelowif they do escalate, i will burn themNov 27 03:07
activelowi mean, they did everything already, to sabotage everything they could without looking too bad with itNov 27 03:08

DaemonFCschestowitz, I think that what Microsoft is doing in adopting "Web" technologies is to try to make their cost burden of sticking around on non-Windows platforms as low as possible.Nov 27 19:00
DaemonFCThe obvious use case for Edge is you may use it on Windows if that SKU doesn't allow anything else or you're on a library computer that doesn't let you use something else, or you need to open a site that needs an embedded copy of Internet Explorer.Nov 27 19:00

DaemonFCschestowitz, Mandy got a retro game system off of Amazon that has a bunch of built-in stuff.Nov 27 19:04
DaemonFCBut they managed to ship a default setting in the Playstation One emulator that caused it to forget your saves.Nov 27 19:04

DaemonFCI forgot to close that. Fixed.Nov 27 19:07
DaemonFCI thought it was super sketchy that this installment payments thing landed right ahead of Christmas.Nov 27 19:07
DaemonFCThe merchants are obviously floating these loans using the company that's writing them out as a proxy.Nov 27 19:07
DaemonFCTo make it less obvious what's happening.Nov 27 19:08
DaemonFCThen that proxy is paying Microsoft a percentage to be included in Edge.Nov 27 19:08
DaemonFCSo with 0% interest and all of these costs (to the company that officially writes the loans and to Microsoft), how do these work?Nov 27 19:09
DaemonFCIt's that retailers are essentially creating a shell corporation that takes on the risky loans to float consumers money for holiday shopping.Nov 27 19:09
schestowitzDaemonFC: Nov 27 19:10
DaemonFCThen when the loans go tits up and this shell corporation collapses, it can file bankruptcy and write off the losses.Nov 27 19:10

DaemonFCAAC itself is no spring chicken.Nov 27 20:25
DaemonFCIt was finalized in 1997.Nov 27 20:25
DaemonFCLike here's something completely broken (MP3). Couple years later.... "Here's something slightly better, with MOAR patents!"Nov 27 20:25
