[02:57] DaemonFC I'm actually exempt from the Mesa3d fuckery going on in Fedora 37 because Intel handles it with a device driver that's in RPM Fusion and it doesn't touch Mesa3d. [02:58] DaemonFC It does the decode in Intel VAAPI Driver and then buffers the work to be sent along back and forth between the Mesa3d Intel drivers and the hardware. [02:58] DaemonFC AMD and Nouveau handle this with Mesa3d code in the driver itself. [02:59] IPFS IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 15.60 k/sec., IPFS upstream 78.46 average k/sec., average swarm size 122.53 [02:59] DaemonFC So essentially what Red Hat has done to Fedora users is (a) if you use Intel, you're fine if you have intel-vaapi-driver from RPM Fusion. If you have AMD or Nvidia and want hardware accelerated video decode, you now need their proprietary driver -or- to rebuild the Mesa3d RPMs having altered the .spec file to flip the hardware decode back on. ● Sep 29 [03:00] DaemonFC Leigh123Linux says there is currently no interest in maintaining a Mesa-FreeWorld package in RPM Fusion. [03:01] DaemonFC This is nasty stuff, and it's all so stupid, because Red Hat (IBM) lawyers admit that the hardware decode stuff by itself doesn't infringe and that you can ONLY infringe if you have software that Fedora doesn't have. [03:01] DaemonFC There has to be something else going on here. [03:02] DaemonFC Nowhere on Fedora's Web sites does it tell you to go get unlicensed codecs from RPM Fusion.

[03:03] DaemonFC Having hardware decode helpers in Mesa3d or not doesn't change how responsible they are if a user bolts on extra codecs they got somewhere else. [03:04] IPFS New daily bulletin is now being generated and assembled. [03:04] DaemonFC What's worse, now that they've taken the time to say they're worried about patent infringement and write code adding special hooks that let Mesa3d get built without that, if they ever turn it back on again, they CAN be sued and said to be recommending users go pirate some unlicensed codecs. [03:05] DaemonFC This is next level retarded. [03:06] DaemonFC Before, they were just building some software the only way it could be built by anyone and not talking about codecs. Which put them on better legal footing. [03:06] DaemonFC I don't think there's a case for infringement based solely on hardware acceleration code that is functionless without something they haven't provided. [03:07] DaemonFC It is more likely that they want to act like there's liability there to harm someone else's distribution. [03:07] DaemonFC But who could that be? [03:07] DaemonFC Ubuntu infringes on all sorts of stuff, including but not limited to patents and copyrights. [03:08] DaemonFC They've done it for years, it's flagrant, it's only getting worse, and they're practically double dog leg daring someone to sue them and potentially anyone who has deployed Ubuntu and has money. [03:09] DaemonFC Fedora has historically been very cautious with patents, and not violating anyone's copyrights. [03:09] DaemonFC It's much more cautious than Debian and especially Ubuntu. [03:10] DaemonFC So cautious that if you want to make a Fully Free distribution and ship it in the US and know it's most likely compliant with US laws, you should build it on Fedora. [03:10] DaemonFC That's a good thing. They've complied with copyright law even when it seems like it doesn't matter. [03:11] DaemonFC There keep being these "fully Free" distributions that pop up and it turns out they have something not Free and also in violation of its own license. [03:11] DaemonFC Inevitably, they've based these on Debian and Ubuntu. [03:12] DaemonFC Unlike patents, there's no rush to sue over copyrights. [03:12] DaemonFC Oracle may just be biding their time to file a lawsuit over ZFS. [03:12] DaemonFC Let users get good and dependent on it. Let Canonical become more profitable so there's more money to take from them. [03:13] DaemonFC If the issue were patents instead of copyrights on ZFS, I think they'd have been sued into the ground already. [03:13] DaemonFC Because the clock is ticking on patents. [03:13] DaemonFC This is another reason it's important not to say "Intellectual Property". [03:14] DaemonFC The US government might be sponsoring OpenZFS, but it doesn't make it legal to smash it together with the GPL and violate both licenses. [03:16] DaemonFC The BSDs don't have this problem because you can't really violate the BSD license in practice. The CDDL adds extra restrictions on that module, but the BSD license allows this. The BSD license doesn't demand anything the CDDL doesn't. The CDDL was designed because Sun wanted a GPL-incompatible license and had its lawyers write one up. [03:17] DaemonFC OpenZFS is also being actively harassed by Linux kernel maintainers who don't want it to work well. [03:18] DaemonFC So it's like "Why would you?" all around.

Probably. For at least a few years. They need to find something he did criminally wrong to charge him with even if it's only a misdemeanor. He knew his son had very serious mental problems and vouched for his FOID Card application anyway. [03:31] DaemonFC Which makes him criminally responsible in some way, I'm sure. [03:32] DaemonFC Does he deserve to be sued into the ground? Oh, definitely. He committed a civil wrongdoing and I'm absolutely sure the jury will convict on that. [03:33] DaemonFC They need to examine the criminal code and figure out what they can prove that he knew he did wrong.

[06:01] highest_cubist_thrills they just arent the fsf anymore [06:02] psydruid It's mostly run by former Sun developers with relatively little new blood coming in [06:02] highest_cubist_thrills the new fsf is a corporate pet project [06:02] highest_cubist_thrills and ibm is going to have it put down [06:02] psydruid and even many of those developers have moved to greener pastures [06:03] highest_cubist_thrills idk about greener, if you mean gnu (you probably mean illumos) [06:03] highest_cubist_thrills theyve moved on to trademark fraud [06:03] highest_cubist_thrills theyve moved on to defrauding the world [06:03] psydruid I should have written "greener" [06:03] highest_cubist_thrills join us now so we can defraud your freedom [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills theres more to do (certainly) than just critique [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills but people arent doing it, so... [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills critique it is (critique is good either way, but there could be more, at least in theory) [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills and the coup has made it perfectly clear [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills "its us, or its you" [06:05] highest_cubist_thrills they dont take prisoners (at least until theyre beaten into submission like rms, torvalds, whoever else) [06:06] highest_cubist_thrills a prisoner is like martyrdom lite [06:06] highest_cubist_thrills they dont want them, they want exiled-in-place [06:06] highest_cubist_thrills a prisoner may fight. they want someone who is half-dead [06:07] highest_cubist_thrills someone completely defeated [06:07] highest_cubist_thrills then a prisoner is fine [06:07] psydruid I consider GNU/Linux to be in a similar boat, but it still runs more of the world than Solaris and Illumos ever did [06:07] highest_cubist_thrills but it still runs more of the world than Solaris and Illumos ever did <- thats a point worth making [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills since corporations always know best-- and gnu (at least) WAS less corporate [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills corporations are good at what theyre good at-- controlling users, taking over competition [06:08] psydruid which is probably why it was important to bring free software back into the corporate fold in order to be able to control it [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills the fsf played crocodile dentist. [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills it was important to bring free software back into the corporate fold in order to be able to control it <- it was essential [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills even microsoft said so. in the 90s. [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills and now theyve done what they said they would do, and people are like "great!" [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills "im your worst nightmare" [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills hes someones worst nightmare. [06:11] psydruid most people care about the product and not about the activism and other effort it took to create that product [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills most people care about the product and not about the activism <- which is why free software shouldnt even create products [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills create software. fuck products. [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills offer an alternative to products [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills products are excessively packaged. excessive packaging is waste. [06:12] highest_cubist_thrills waste is used to bloat projects. bloat kills freedom. [06:12] highest_cubist_thrills its already happened. [06:12] highest_cubist_thrills create projects instead. [06:12] highest_cubist_thrills keep them as projects. TEACH PEOPLE how to use projects. [06:12] highest_cubist_thrills and by all means facilitate it-- just dont make it into a product. [06:12] psydruid but when you lose the philosophy and the process you can't recreate that thing that was unique because no one has the vision or the skills anymore, but most importantly not the willpower [06:13] highest_cubist_thrills when you lose the philosophy and the process you can't recreate that thing <- thats because the philosophy was a key ingredient. [06:13] *AdmFubar (~mradmin@ngqaam7baxnug.irc) has joined #techrights [06:14] highest_cubist_thrills corporations remove the philosophy and kill the project. [06:14] highest_cubist_thrills then they package the corpse and sell it as a product [06:14] highest_cubist_thrills but more than that, they turn free software into another sweatshop business [06:14] highest_cubist_thrills github is a sweatshop [06:14] psydruid what's lost is lost and the new generation may care about freedom but doesn't actually have any way to exercise that freedom, because everything seems fixed now [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills people work hard, most dont get paid, the corporations profit while users suffer. [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills thats immoral. [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills its exploitation. its how sweatshops work. [06:15] psydruid that's just an illusion created by corporations [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills what's lost is lost and the new generation may care about freedom but doesn't actually have any way to exercise that freedom <- movements die. [06:15] psydruid but if everyone believes it, it may as well be true [06:16] highest_cubist_thrills if everyone believes it, it may as well be true <- beliefs that arent self serving should be challenged [06:16] psydruid I don't blame them for looking helpless [06:16] highest_cubist_thrills um [06:16] highest_cubist_thrills beliefs that arent self-beneficial rather [06:16] psydruid the previous generation had freedom and squandered it [06:16] highest_cubist_thrills i dont blame people for feeling beaten [06:17] highest_cubist_thrills had freedom and squandered it <- this is what happens when people get tempted by servitude with a lovely bow on top [06:17] psydruid and now we have to deal with the mess that got left behind [06:17] highest_cubist_thrills the main way people will deal with that mess [06:17] psydruid however painful that may be [06:17] highest_cubist_thrills is by creating fake initiatives to absorb the energy of those who want to push forward [06:18] highest_cubist_thrills osi is the prime example of such counterrevolution [06:18] highest_cubist_thrills i dont think esr intended it to be, but he also did nothing to stop it. [06:18] highest_cubist_thrills nothing. he relied solely on ego and hubris.

[06:21] highest_cubist_thrills distributions ultimately mirrored the modern os [06:22] highest_cubist_thrills which is totally fine [06:22] highest_cubist_thrills the one caveat is [06:22] highest_cubist_thrills distributions became products and a vehicle for controlling users [06:22] highest_cubist_thrills its possible to be a benign distro [06:22] highest_cubist_thrills but the trend towards being a vehicle for further control isnt easy to reverse, or even avoid. [06:23] highest_cubist_thrills so really there should be anti-distros [06:23] psydruid I always reported and got things fixed things upstream [06:23] highest_cubist_thrills fixing upstream is ultimately better [06:23] highest_cubist_thrills in the short term, it wont reach the distro. in the long term it reaches more distros. [06:23] psydruid some minor patches ended up in some projects [06:24] psydruid but these days I don't really do any of that anymore [06:24] highest_cubist_thrills itd be nice if there was a distro that kept fixes current and held back sabotage and instability :) [06:24] highest_cubist_thrills only way to do that is empower more choice than distros ever have [06:24] highest_cubist_thrills while not imposing things [06:25] highest_cubist_thrills you start doing that, and you start doing something that looks less like a distro [06:25] highest_cubist_thrills in a good way [06:25] highest_cubist_thrills maybe a transcendistro [06:25] highest_cubist_thrills less of a product, more of a platform for projects. [06:25] highest_cubist_thrills i mean a laptop is a product [06:25] highest_cubist_thrills an sbc is a project. [06:26] highest_cubist_thrills now make a distro like that. [06:26] highest_cubist_thrills i mean gentoo sort of is, but its for gurus and wizards (and the occasional nazi. im not blaming gentoo for that) [06:26] psydruid there are things like gentoo, but that's obviously tied to GNU/Linux [06:26] highest_cubist_thrills to run dos you needed TWO files. to make it usable you needed a third or fourth file. [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills obviously (imo) linux has no future. certainly not one that benefits freedom [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills it was always a corporate pet project [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills it transformed gnu into a corporate pet project. [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills gnu/linux wasnt a marriage, it was a tug of war [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills now it tugs off everyone :) [06:28] psydruid GNU/Linux has a present as a placeholder, I consider it "proprietary" Unix for the modern age [06:29] highest_cubist_thrills a friendlier gentoo, where friendly just means easier to get started, not "everything has a gui" [06:29] psydruid I mean, you can look at the code and even do lots of things with jt [06:29] highest_cubist_thrills i mean, i never compiled a large piece of software until i switched to openbsd [06:29] highest_cubist_thrills ive compiled bash and python now. python. [06:29] psydruid but do you have the knowledge and the skills? [06:29] highest_cubist_thrills but do you have the knowledge and the skills? <- this is what i mean [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills when i made a distro i knew that remastering manually was too much work to keep it going [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills people burn out and quit [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills then the work is gone-- theyre the only ones that know how [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills so i only did fully automated remastering [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills every script is a receipt of every change made. [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills so you download a distro and you run the script. and if you dont like something it does [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills just comment or remove the code and run it. [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills and i made it as friendly as i possibly could. [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills i mean [06:31] psydruid I think part of what makes GNU and Linux hard to contribute to is that no one ever documented their creation process [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills i design as much as i possibly can for my five year old self. thats when i learned to code. [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills now, maybe i do things that would elude me then. [06:31] psydruid why were certain things done the way they were? [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills and maybe other people would do similar at 15 or 20 [06:32] highest_cubist_thrills no one ever documented their creation process <- i actually documented the process of a language i implemented in javascript. [06:32] highest_cubist_thrills i mean as i added a feature i talked about doing it [06:32] highest_cubist_thrills too bad we dont do more things that way [06:32] highest_cubist_thrills im certainly not saying i was the first. to some degree people do this. [06:33] highest_cubist_thrills not to the degree where we know how gnu was made. [06:33] highest_cubist_thrills but you know what does help? history. [06:33] highest_cubist_thrills the history of gnu is valuable-- thats why theyre rewriting it [06:33] psydruid it's important as you may recreate the thing if you know what to think of when writing the replacement [06:33] highest_cubist_thrills rewriting history and bloat are like the two primary weapons of open source [06:33] highest_cubist_thrills on loan from the corporations they serve [06:33] psydruid that's cool, though [06:34] highest_cubist_thrills fsvo what [06:34] psydruid because that means we have to go back to a time before gnu to understand what it all means [06:34] highest_cubist_thrills i dont entirely agree [06:34] psydruid because the gnu history will be useless [06:34] highest_cubist_thrills i mean, its not useless to try that angle [06:35] highest_cubist_thrills the thing about history is [06:35] psydruid when rewritten and not stating the facts as they were [06:35] highest_cubist_thrills people rewrite it all the time [06:35] highest_cubist_thrills we live in a world where lies are power [06:35] highest_cubist_thrills history helps expose bullshit [06:35] highest_cubist_thrills history is a force that can be used and reused as a weapon for good [06:36] highest_cubist_thrills when people rewrite history [06:36] highest_cubist_thrills you expose it. [06:36] highest_cubist_thrills at least, i mean, not everyone has to become a historian [06:36] highest_cubist_thrills but a love of history is a love of truth. [06:36] highest_cubist_thrills even if a lot of history is bullshit :) [06:36] highest_cubist_thrills history, in the positive sense, is a PROCESS of removing bullshit and restoring knowledge [06:37] highest_cubist_thrills this is a process that dovetails with rebooting movements that were killed off. [06:37] highest_cubist_thrills the history of free software is full of valuable lessons [06:37] highest_cubist_thrills things we should learn from and avoid doing again. [06:37] highest_cubist_thrills like trusting big corporations. never again-- if we dont want to fail. [06:37] highest_cubist_thrills if you go back to before gnu [06:37] highest_cubist_thrills there is only corporate development. [06:37] highest_cubist_thrills i mean, i can think of exceptions. [06:38] highest_cubist_thrills the history of free software is as valuable as the history of anti-capitalism. [06:38] highest_cubist_thrills true activists are the living memory of those who fought before [06:38] highest_cubist_thrills and stallman fought for decades [06:38] highest_cubist_thrills his legacy is a lesson [06:38] highest_cubist_thrills thats why theyre rewriting it, reframing it [06:38] highest_cubist_thrills bullshitting people [06:38] highest_cubist_thrills truth fights bullshit. its just a VERY long fight. [06:39] highest_cubist_thrills bullshit wears a truth costume. [06:39] highest_cubist_thrills people get the two confused. [06:39] psydruid what aggi is running into in his attempts to cut the bloat is that gnu supports all kinds of operating systems and toolchains that have gone extinct [06:39] psydruid so "gnu 2023" won't look like "gnu 1983" [06:39] highest_cubist_thrills the truth of the history of the free software, is a dna strand that we can clone the (lost) philosophy from [06:39] psydruid what is valuable about gnu is documenting the culture around it [06:39] highest_cubist_thrills source code is also historical. [06:40] highest_cubist_thrills is documenting the culture around it <- i agree [06:40] highest_cubist_thrills the code is too bloated to salvage, but it could be in a museum. [06:40] highest_cubist_thrills by the time anyone salvages the bloat, the world will have rewritten tighter more manageable alternatives [06:40] highest_cubist_thrills exceptions will happen. probably not much. [06:41] highest_cubist_thrills i mean suppose they reconstruct the monitor and the merrimack-- these were two of the first-- maybe the two first armoured warships. [06:41] highest_cubist_thrills they were so well built they couldnt sink each other, they just beat the shit out of each other and said "fuck it, lets go home" [06:41] highest_cubist_thrills for historys sake we could rebuild them, im not a civil war buff, i dont know what their fate was. [06:42] psydruid gnu code can still serve as a blueprint of simply documentation, but that's probably where I would stop [06:42] highest_cubist_thrills but we arent going to rebuild them to send them into battle again. [06:42] highest_cubist_thrills thats gnu. [06:42] highest_cubist_thrills gnu was the original flagship of the free software movement. [06:42] psydruid and gnu still runs on all of those decades of hardware [06:42] highest_cubist_thrills it has been decommissioned. [06:42] highest_cubist_thrills gnu still runs on all of those decades of hardware <- so its a compatbility layer [06:42] highest_cubist_thrills im not saying abandoned posix btw [06:43] highest_cubist_thrills gnu is posix + extensions (like practically everything else is) [06:43] highest_cubist_thrills that was the point of posix. its nice because [06:43] highest_cubist_thrills posix is the reason that going from gnu to bsd doesnt feel like moving to another planet. [06:43] highest_cubist_thrills or at least, not in a way that youd never want to. [06:43] highest_cubist_thrills its more like moving to europe. they drive on the other side. [06:44] highest_cubist_thrills most things are similar if not identical. [06:44] highest_cubist_thrills i think posix is a lot to ask of people [06:44] highest_cubist_thrills but its not a bad target. [06:44] psydruid I'm not sure to what extent a new kernel should be compliant with POSIX because many syscalls are deprecated [06:44] highest_cubist_thrills yeah you surely know more about that than i do. [06:44] highest_cubist_thrills openbsd is all the posix i need. [06:45] highest_cubist_thrills but dos is insufficient. [06:45] highest_cubist_thrills mostly i miss <() but thats not posix, thats bash. [06:45] highest_cubist_thrills but the point is the same. some posix is great [06:46] highest_cubist_thrills i have this $() everyone knows what that does [06:46] highest_cubist_thrills <() is similar except its a file. [06:46] psydruid I think there should be a POSIX standard with only the syscalls that matter now [06:46] highest_cubist_thrills MOST (a few exceptions exist) things that will accept a filename will accept the contents of <() as if its a file. thats awesome. [06:46] highest_cubist_thrills with only the syscalls that matter now <- i mean thats an invitation to the wrong people [06:47] psydruid the older syscalls could be emulated or however that would work [06:47] highest_cubist_thrills i guess it depends how you do it. [06:47] highest_cubist_thrills i think its less about the standard... and more about doing things compatibly [06:47] highest_cubist_thrills but then, that sounds like a contradiction, because on the surface its absolutely the very same thing [06:47] highest_cubist_thrills only in subtle ways is there any difference [06:48] highest_cubist_thrills like if i made an os [06:48] psydruid that's why many new operating system kernels are unix-like and mostly posix-compatible [06:48] highest_cubist_thrills id be hoping for a reasonable level of compatibility [06:48] highest_cubist_thrills thats what standards are supposed to make happen [06:48] highest_cubist_thrills the goal of the standard-- rather than the standard itself [06:48] highest_cubist_thrills what the finger is pointing to, rather than the finger. [06:49] highest_cubist_thrills that's why many new operating system kernels are unix-like and mostly posix-compatible <- its a good design. [06:49] highest_cubist_thrills in a world of mostly shitty designs [06:49] highest_cubist_thrills it was definitely never perfect [06:49] highest_cubist_thrills it was also (initially) simple. [06:50] highest_cubist_thrills but most importantly is the idea of software that gives users control of their computing [06:50] psydruid I think a new kernel could look like the software equivalent of RISC-V [06:50] highest_cubist_thrills because gnu did that, and now, it doesnt [06:50] highest_cubist_thrills now it gives the illusion of control, based a reputation it built over decades [06:51] highest_cubist_thrills theres a famous scene in silence of the lambs where lecter cuts off the face of a guard and wears it as a mask to fool someone [06:51] psydruid learn from the past but don't bring all the baggage that would hold you back [06:51] highest_cubist_thrills ibm has cut the face off of gnu and is wearing it around [06:51] highest_cubist_thrills its ibm in a gnu suit [06:52] highest_cubist_thrills there is no gnu [06:52] highest_cubist_thrills I think a new kernel could look like the software equivalent of RISC-V <- i think forking the openbsd kernel would be easier [06:52] psydruid gnu is an IBM brand [06:53] highest_cubist_thrills hell, even hurd was a fork. it was just too damned complex. [06:53] psydruid hyperbola is doing that [06:53] highest_cubist_thrills yeah but they probably wont succeed [06:53] highest_cubist_thrills i wish them the best [06:53] highest_cubist_thrills if people want to help they should make a distro based on hyperbola [06:53] highest_cubist_thrills first, make a distro. then make it less like a distro. [06:54] highest_cubist_thrills the first step is vital. the second step is a move forward. dont skip the first step. [06:54] highest_cubist_thrills you can shit on a toilet without walking towards it first [06:54] highest_cubist_thrills but youll get shit on the floor.

[06:56] highest_cubist_thrills for the first year or so they can say its prudent [06:56] highest_cubist_thrills if five years in youre not explaining anything, something is wrong [06:56] highest_cubist_thrills no one will happier than i if one day they prove me wrong [06:56] highest_cubist_thrills i want to believ [06:56] highest_cubist_thrills i want them to build a fully free openbsd [06:56] highest_cubist_thrills THEY are the very reason why i used openbsd now [06:57] highest_cubist_thrills not theo. love theo. hyperbola is the reason i used openbsd. [06:57] highest_cubist_thrills but openbsd isnt a project with a goal of creating freedom [06:58] highest_cubist_thrills its a project that creates better tools, which can be repurposed for the sake of freedom [06:58] highest_cubist_thrills gnu has been repurposed for ibm. [06:58] highest_cubist_thrills ibm is good at repurposing things. like jewish labour. [06:58] highest_cubist_thrills i hear stallman is jewish. theyve repurposed his labour. [06:58] highest_cubist_thrills gnu is an IBM brand <- it is now. [06:59] highest_cubist_thrills creating better tools is only part of the battle. if you can fork openbsd-- i mean [06:59] highest_cubist_thrills what do they think hurd was actually a fork of...

[13:51] matteobin I'm not pure. :D [13:51] psydruid If you like it and are using it, I don't see a reason to stop doing so [13:51] MinceR i can't stop using FreeDOS because i never started [13:51] psydruid Indeed [13:52] matteobin I was questioning the logic. [13:52] matteobin I didn't mean to stop using it. [13:53] psydruid It might be a worthwhile endeavour to question yourself too [13:53] matteobin If a person does something wrong, should we stop reading his books/watching his films or using his software? [13:53] psydruid That's a personal choice [13:54] matteobin What do you mean with questioning myself? What should I question myself about? [13:54] psydruid Unless said media or products are forbidden by law [13:54] MinceR there are different levels to this [13:54] matteobin Yes, it's personal. But does it make sense? [13:54] psydruid Everything [13:54] psydruid Yes [13:54] MinceR reading a book is a lesser level of commitment than using/maintaining/supporting a bit of software [13:55] matteobin People can change and do wrong things but they can change again. [13:55] MinceR watching a movie is a lesser level of commitment than contributing to the mindshare of the API of some piece of software [13:55] matteobin Yes, but we are talking about FreeDOS, we are not talking about GNOME. [13:55] MinceR creating new software that depends on existing software is even greater [13:55] matteobin It's an isoloted system. [13:56] MinceR with an OS, i at least make sure my code is portable so that you can use it on another OS [13:56] matteobin You are right. Talking about FreeDOS what wrong can arise from its adoption? [13:57] MinceR dunno [13:57] matteobin I use FreeDOS for classic DOS games, offline. [13:57] matteobin FreeDOS is great for embedded devices too. [13:57] MinceR i occasionally use whatever's built into dosbox but don't develop for it [13:57] psydruid People who care about and use FreeDOS should be interested in it and do what they can to support it [13:58] matteobin Anyway [13:58] psydruid I use Dosbox for the few free DOS games I have installed from GOG [13:58] psydruid I have no need for FreeDOS, but other people might [13:58] MinceR yeah, i think some of the games in my GOG library come with dosbox [13:58] matteobin Besides signing that hate petition, what did Jim Hall against Stallman? [13:59] psydruid Maybe you can tell us, as I know nothing about this person ● Sep 29 [14:00] matteobin I was asking schestowitz[TR] [14:00] matteobin Jim Hall is the creator of FreeDOS.

The ones that are far too annoying to live with, anyway. [21:06] DaemonFC That's how cars are. [21:07] schestowitz[TR] cars are like this [21:07] schestowitz[TR] luxury ones the same [21:07] schestowitz[TR] but with luxury fees [21:07] schestowitz[TR] premiuums [21:08] DaemonFC Fuel vapor leak? Only worth fixing because it would narc you out to emissions. [21:08] DaemonFC It's never going to cost enough to be worth it due to gas mileage. [21:09] DaemonFC For the most part, the issues that apply to the 2008 Chevy Impala apply to the Buick as well, however the Buick is using better parts in many cases. [21:10] DaemonFC I noticed that the Buick division used the same engines, however they came from the factory with metal valve covers and upper and lower intakes. [21:10] DaemonFC The Impala switched to plastic in 2002 and basically what that means is that sooner or later it cracks and you have intake and valve cover problems that need to be fixed. [21:11] DaemonFC They were a more expensive car, so the engineers didn't cut as many corners. [21:11] DaemonFC Which I thought was interesting. How many 60+ year olds are going to buy a car and go "What is this crap? PLASTIC!? This is going to give me a problem in 15 years!". [21:12] DaemonFC How many people for that matter? [21:12] DaemonFC I'm glad this car was designed before the "throw it away every 2 years" iPhone mentality made it into the automobile market. [21:14] DaemonFC The CANBUS stuff in the Linux kernel is interesting. [21:14] DaemonFC In that it's cheaper for auto makers to control things like this with Linux on the car now. [21:15] DaemonFC I was talking to my mechanic about that because he mentioned you have to program the Brake Module to interface with the CANBUS. It's not just "plug and play". Of course it wouldn't be. That would be far too simple, wouldn't it? [21:16] DaemonFC You have to program it to talk to the computer (which only shops will be able to do of course) because they can't just put a ROM into it at the factory so you can stick it in the car. [21:16] DaemonFC Brake Control Module is not a driveway car repair. [21:17] DaemonFC You need an expensive diagnostic computer that is capable of programming it to the car when you're done or else it won't work and you'll have the dashboard lights on complaining that you need to service the ABS/Traction Module.

[21:36] DaemonFC *ride [21:36] DaemonFC These insurance apps don't seem to really punish you for having a lead foot, unless you make a habit out of going over 80 on the freeway. [21:37] DaemonFC But of course, their policy on how to treat speeding that you aren't ticketed for could change. [21:38] DaemonFC Right now, the only thing that hurts you very much related to speed is if a cop actually bothers to pull you over and the ticket sticks in court. And there's ways around that too, like agreeing to court supervision to pay a fine and keep it off your record. [21:38] DaemonFC They threaten to unleash the kraken if you don't agree to pay the fine. [21:38] DaemonFC So you agree that the fine is big and they don't release the kraken (the insurance companies). [21:45] DaemonFC I cleaned up the mess Fedora 36 left behind after the upgrade.
