[00:00]	matey	MS Windows is not alone, however. Certain variants of Unix-like systems appear to be headed down that road as well. While Linux distributions like Ubuntu seem to run afoul of the common negative correlation between security and popularity just like MS Windows, they still have a ways to go to achieve the same level of blatant disregard for security.

[00:09]	DaemonFC	"2017 Malibu most expensive pos I have ever owned
[00:09]	DaemonFC	Amanda,04/12/2018
[00:09]	DaemonFC	L 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
[00:09]	DaemonFC	I purchased a 2017 malibu new with 5 miles 12/2016. Check engine light came on a month and half later. Vehicle in the shop 15 times in a 16 month period. Repeat emission related issues, rumbling, vibrating noise, clunks and jerks upon deceleration, reduced engine power lights causing car to not accelerate and not shift out of 2nd gear. Oxygen senors replaced 3 times and received error code that they needed to be replaced a 4th time. Catalytic 
[00:09]	DaemonFC	converter replaced, wire harness replaced twice, rear wheel bearing replaced and still had repeat issues. Chevy Malibu is unsafe and is a hazard to the driver and others on the road. On 3 occasions the reduced engine light illuminated and the car would not accelerate. There is no warning ahead of time. The last time this happened I was on the freeway. After repeat inconveniences of taking my car for repairs, time off work, time without a 
[00:09]	DaemonFC	vehicle, being stranded roadside and put in unsafe conditions from lack of reliability and lack of resolution from the dealership and GM I turned my car in as a voluntary repo. I will never purchase another GM vehicle! It is by far the worst vehicle I have owned! It is unsafe and unreliable. I will not drive behind a Chevy Malibu on the freeway because I know at any moment their reduced engine power indicator may come on and cause their vehicle 
[00:09]	DaemonFC	to substantially slow and not accelerate. DO NOT BUY A MALIBU"
[00:09]	DaemonFC	:/
[00:09]	DaemonFC	Well, scratch that about not holding up over time. This lady bought one brand new with 5 miles on the odometer and it was in the shop every month beginning the third month she owned it.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	Mom bought a Malibu as well. Although it was one of the decent older models.
[00:12]	DaemonFC	She destroyed that by not paying attention and allowing some uninsured driver back out of their driveway into her, and then the cop let the uninsured driver go, and then mom's insurance had to pay it out as uninsured motorist. I don't know if they ever sued the bitch, but I doubt they got anything. She was in the middle of moving out on one of Kent's apartments and into one of Theresa's.
[00:13]	DaemonFC	They're the two big landlords in Huntington, and when they used to actually work in the same office together, they used to yell back and forth about whether to rent to people or not if they put the other one down as a past landlord.
[00:13]	DaemonFC	Kent had some that moved out without paying him and then put him down as a reference. They were upstairs from my mom.
[00:13]	DaemonFC	4 months behind on rent, they sneak out and then put him down as a reference!
[00:14]	DaemonFC	Then there was my neighbor, Dawn, who was always drunk and trying to get me to have sex with her.
[00:14]		*activelow has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
[00:14]	DaemonFC	She was like 8 months behind and then slipped out.
[00:15]		*activelow (~activelow@5p42qdurt3f6k.irc) has joined #techrights
[00:15]	DaemonFC	Made me feel really good about paying every week. Nothing happens if you don't pay. :/
[00:15]	DaemonFC	Yes, rent by the week. Most people in that town have no money if you don't catch them on payday, but what could I do? He was one of the cheapest landlords in town who actually had decent apartments, who wasn't government subsidized.
[00:16]	DaemonFC	And of course as a single white male, your odds of getting government housing are like winning the powerball twice, back to back.
[00:16]	DaemonFC	You just get to pay taxes so that people can game the system.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	Move in with their bastard kids and boyfriend that's "totally not living there" except he's always there and bringing drugs in and out and has mail going there.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	Other than that, not living there.
[00:18]	DaemonFC	Then people wonder why the Section 8 program keeps getting cut, why landlords don't even want to accept it if you can get a voucher, and why everyone looks down on people that get it.
[00:18]	DaemonFC	The complexes that take it turn into drug dens and with criminals and guns everywhere, so they start demanding people be 55+ to get any help.
[00:19]	DaemonFC	Because they know that if you LIVE to 55, you're probably not a gang member.
[00:20]	DaemonFC	Mom lived in one of those for a while. Not subsidized, but they had a tax credit deal with the IRS to keep the rent down for people over 55 with lower than average income for their household size. And it was a nice place, UNTIL they started letting people under 50 in there. Then it turned into drugs, guns, gangs, bedbugs, cockroaches, don't go out into the hall at night. Someone's stereo always blasting.
[00:21]	DaemonFC	schestowitz_TR2, That dehumidifier really did the trick. It got up to 90 outside today and I haven't needed the air conditioner.
[00:22]	DaemonFC	Which is just as well because the thing is the biggest piece of shit air conditioner I've ever seen. Even the one at the motel WORKED properly and didn't freeze itself up.
[00:23]	DaemonFC	The hottest it got in here today was 75.
[00:23]		*bnchs has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
[00:24]	DaemonFC	I just got another box fan. The things are dirt cheap to run.
[00:24]	DaemonFC	I intend to turn this one into an air purifier when those MERV 13 furnace filters arrive from Amazon tomorrow.
[00:25]	DaemonFC	They gave me $7 off a pack of 4 because the box they were packed in was damaged, but it says the filters are okay.
[00:25]		*bnchs (~bnchs@bjckeed7fe7s6.irc) has joined #techrights
[00:26]	DaemonFC	So I got a 20x20 box fan at Walmart for $23, the Command strips for $9, and a pack of 4 MERV 13 furnace filters, 20x20, for $50.
[00:28]	DaemonFC	You have to change them out about every 4-6 months, but even at that, that's only 2-3 times a year $25-37 a year on filters and $23 for the up front cost of the fan. The HEPA air purifiers that can change over the room air that fast are running about $200-400 depending on which brand you want, with the $400 model being a Dyson, and then they make their own cartidges you have to replace every year for about $70-80, but then that's IF they keep 
[00:28]	DaemonFC	making them. They're not a standard size.
[00:28]	DaemonFC	So they could stop making them and leave you with a $400 air purifier that you can't even use.
[00:29]	DaemonFC	One of the articles I was reading about fan+MERV 13 furnace filter says you may put additional strain on the fan motor. Well, last time I did this with a cheap fan, the fan ran for 12 years before the motor started to go out, and it was a $20 fan.
[00:29]	DaemonFC	So I mean, who cares? Buy another fan, strap a MERV 13 to that one.
[00:30]	DaemonFC	I guarantee you that Dyson won't work in 12 years, it'll cost god knows what to replace it when it craps out, and that's if you can find filters by then.
[00:30]	DaemonFC	I only buy things where I can either get standard parts or just reuse the ones it comes with forever, or at worst, I end up making my own replacement parts for it.
[00:31]	DaemonFC	Like, if these prefilters on the AirGenius systems I own wear out, I can just get a cut to fit air conditioner filter for $1 and make a new one myself.
[00:32]	DaemonFC	It's too much aggravation and money down the toilet to get something that requires proprietary components that have to be replaced, without any guarantee for how long they even make them that fit, and when the up front cost of the system is incredibly expensive for what it is.
[00:35]	DaemonFC	If I do buy into an expensive system, like my $85 toothbrush, I do things like bulk buy 4-5 years of replacement heads all at once so I know I can probably use it for as long as the unit will last.
[00:36]	DaemonFC	It helps assure you that you'll probably average out a per year TCO that is more reasonable even if the manufacturer starts making incompatible heads to sell you a new handle.
[00:37]	DaemonFC	schestowitz_TR2, I wish I had considered this back when those Filtrete water filter discs were in production and $10 each and still in production.
[00:37]	DaemonFC	You find something you like and they just stop making them. It's maddening.
[00:37]	DaemonFC	They actually got design patents on these things. They went 100 gallons, no clogs, $10, and then they stopped making them.
[00:37]	DaemonFC	But nobody else started, because of the patents.

[00:59]	activelow	reminder, while Energy prices exploded in Germany, these didn't in France and Italy recently
● May 30
[01:00]	activelow	this is the type of "unity" of "EU", with their "green new deal", "carbon tax" etc
[01:00]	activelow	anti-competitive industry politics
[01:01]	activelow	XRevan86: too Italy receives gas from the "Druschba" pipeline
[01:02]	matey	it must be glorious, if innocent people are being killed
[01:02]	activelow	benefits "EU"
[01:03]	matey	/me never blames xrevan or mincer for the idiot leaders of their respective countries
[01:03]	matey	after all... 
[01:03]		*bnchs has quit (Quit: leaving)
[01:03]	matey	if we are going to throw that kind of stone...
[01:04]	XRevan86	matey: It is my collective responsibility, but it's not my individual fault.
[01:04]	matey	well, you and the rest of the planet
[01:04]	MinceR	XRevan86: well, at least more and more people know that fideath supports a terrorist state
[01:04]	MinceR	"country image", as they say
[01:05]	matey	oh is russia a terrorist state now?
[01:05]	MinceR	well, yeah
[01:05]	matey	i mean, its acting like one, but is it official?
[01:05]	MinceR	they threatened with nuclear war and fallout from nuclear power plants
[01:05]	MinceR	dunno what counts as official
[01:06]	matey	i dont know where you go to find out
[01:06]	matey	for wanted murderers you can just check the post office
[01:06]	MinceR	:>
[01:06]	matey	for terrorist states, they dont bother

[01:06]	matey	thats a terrorist url
[01:06]	matey	i dont mean the page it goes to 
[01:06]	matey	i mean the url itself
[01:07]	XRevan86	I've completely no idea what that is.
[01:07]	matey	its the elder address!
[01:07]	matey	dont speak it out loud or the internet could collapse
[01:08]	matey	it lures people in thinking its just a harmless jpeg. this is exactly how goatse started
[01:09]	matey	<matey> for wanted murderers you can just check the post office <- before so many people were vegan, they used to put pictures of missing persons on milk containers
[01:10]	matey	so when people went vegan you could ask them if they were trying to protect kidnappers
[01:10]	XRevan86	activelow: Druzhba is excluded from this embargo proposal.
[01:10]	matey	which i never did, because the vegans never pushed hard enough
[01:10]	matey	i was ready for them though
[01:10]	activelow	XRevan86: by "EU", not Orban
[01:11]	XRevan86	activelow: What's that supposed to mean?
[01:11]	matey	everyone knows vegans are just former cannibals after the pendulum swung in the other direction
[01:11]	activelow	XRevan86: it means, it isn't Orban nor Putin supporting terrorism, it is "EU" who does
[01:11]	activelow	Druzhba pipeline is the one controlled by the comedian from Kiev
[01:16]	MinceR	lol @ protecting kidnappers
[01:18]	matey	the uk wants to ship asylum seekers to rwanda
[01:18]	matey	i swear they dont even know what asylum seeking is
[01:19]	matey	this is in the glorious (see previous defintion) european union
[01:19]	matey	in one of the GREATEST nations IN europe, in all of history, of course
[01:19]	MinceR	no, the uk is not in the eu
[01:19]	XRevan86	activelow: In the same vein as the Taliban are the biggest supporters of feminism in Afghanistan.
[01:19]	matey	oh right
[01:19]	matey	they did leave
[01:19]	matey	FORMER european union :)
[01:20]	matey	(it was part of the eu when i was there)
[01:20]	matey	i do recall reading something more recently though...
[01:20]	MinceR	no, the eu is not gone yet :>
[01:20]	MinceR	(fideath and the PiS are working on it though)
[01:20]	matey	well if youre going to be like that, the fsf still exists too
[01:20]	activelow	XRevan86: well, as far as i am concerned, all those EU feminists could take refuge in Afghanistan, and enforce any desired social order there
[01:21]	MinceR	it exists, it just isn't doing anything useful
[01:21]	matey	sort of like the eu
[01:21]	activelow	first on the hit list, peace angel foreign minister A. Baerbock
[01:21]	MinceR	the eu was not changed in this way by the uk leaving, was it?
[01:21]	matey	oh no
[01:21]	matey	the eu sucked for so many more reasons than that
[01:21]	activelow	who, just like EU, want to supply Ukraine with Weapons
[01:21]	activelow	why... because of friendship and democracy and climate and this and that
[01:22]	matey	the goals of the eu are noble and just
[01:22]	matey	what that actually has to do with the eu itself is anyones guess
[01:22]	matey	i hate the implementation more than the design
[01:23]	matey	"come here and we will work to better europe"
[01:23]	matey	"ok, now that youre all here-- FUCK YOU ALL!"
[01:24]	matey	lots of copyright and censorship and opportunist socialism for corporations for everyone
[01:24]	matey	but, free passage. not you, gypsy scum
[01:24]	matey	"im from poland"
[01:24]	matey	"close enough"
[01:25]	matey	if they called it the european clusterfuck, id at least approve of the name
[01:25]	matey	if its a union, when does everyone go on strike?
[01:27]	matey	i see one striking similarity between the eu and stalins ussr that might just be enough for it to be a terrible idea
[01:27]	matey	and only after a small part of it has already "proven" itself to be an issue
[01:28]	matey	socialism really only works if the power comes from the bottom 
[01:29]	matey	obviously for it to be socialism, administration comes from the top
[01:29]	matey	but the power cant
[01:29]	matey	stalin didnt trust the people at all
[01:29]	matey	it was supposed to be power to the soviets
[01:29]	matey	instead, all power went to the bureaucracy
[01:30]	matey	that seems to be the eu approach
[01:30]	matey	of course no matter what they do, elections are a nice thing to bolt onto tyranny
[01:30]	matey	dont worry, we keep our promises
[01:30]	matey	if you want socialism, make sure all the europeans are armed :)
[01:31]	matey	if you want stalinism, entrust only the state with such power
[01:31]	matey	of course, im not confident at all about this assessment
[01:31]	matey	ive been trying to figure out the eu for ages
[01:32]	matey	the only thing im really confident of is that its a dumpster fire
[01:32]	matey	they talk a good game about human rights
[01:32]	matey	but they really kind of suck at it
[01:33]	activelow	btw.; the northstream project, it was Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, and Russia cooperating
[01:33]	activelow	after Brexit, it was "southern" europe, mainly catholic Italy/Spain/France who dominate
[01:33]	activelow	that's why, Drushba good, Northstream bad
[01:34]	activelow	although, imagine this, with UK gone, Netherlands, German, Switzerland and Russia pissed onto by "EU"
[01:34]	activelow	guess, how many "friends" there are remaining
[01:35]	activelow	and this catholic church, praising world peace, with corn and gas and oil, which wasn't theirs
[01:35]	activelow	that's why, they want to re-route corn via romania...
[01:36]	CrystalMath	a terrorist state, hmm, that sounds like the one that invaded Iraq and killed countless innocent people
[01:36]	CrystalMath	with its whole terrorist group called NATO
[01:37]	XRevan86	CrystalMath: The operation that was sanctioned by the UN, and by the Russia specifically?
[01:37]	XRevan86	* by Russia
[01:37]	CrystalMath	XRevan86: that doesn't make it any less terrorist
[01:37]	XRevan86	CrystalMath: That does put a rift between that and what's happening now.
[01:38]	MinceR	well, at least we all agree on russia being a terrorist state, then
[01:38]	matey	sure, some things are easy
[01:38]	CrystalMath	well, i sincerely hope that russia has changed since 2003
[01:38]	matey	plus it sort of looks like one
[01:38]	CrystalMath	and would no longer allow such things
[01:39]	XRevan86	The president hasn't changed for one thing.
[01:39]	MinceR	it hasn't
[01:39]	MinceR	but now it's changing
[01:39]	matey	but the funny thing is, the the right was actually against terrorists a decade or two ago
[01:39]	matey	now theyre like "
[01:39]	CrystalMath	what do you mean?
[01:39]	matey	fuck yeah! theyre winning!"
[01:39]	MinceR	from a sovereign state into either a state that no longer exists or into a colony of red china
[01:39]	XRevan86	And yea, some of the people who died in Ukraine have literally only lived with Putin as president.
[01:39]	MinceR	they've made themselves into a pariah state
[01:39]	CrystalMath	the "right" was specifically supporting the evil NATO terrorist action against iraq
[01:40]	XRevan86	So Putin's presidency was a constant in their whole lives.
[01:40]	MinceR	putler is sacrificing everything in an attempt to get things he can't have
[01:40]	CrystalMath	even people praised today, like Tucker Carlson, were saying disgusting things about Saddam Hussein that are completely untrue
[01:40]	CrystalMath	and racist things
[01:41]	matey	when does he join the board then?
[01:41]	MinceR	don't worry, i don't praise Fucker Carlson
[01:41]	matey	no, fucker carlson people like russia, i think
[01:41]	MinceR	yeah
[01:41]	MinceR	ruscism is the fascism of this century
[01:41]	activelow	Burisma Bidler, catholic, almost forgot
[01:42]	matey	also you can say at least 5 lines of text without saying WOOOO or YEAAAH!
[01:42]	activelow	Hitler, catholic
[01:42]	activelow	i mean, this church
[01:42]	CrystalMath	matey: idk, i guess we see it differently, i can't imagine supporting both russia and NATO, it would be super cognitive dissonance
[01:42]	activelow	this is EU
[01:42]	XRevan86	activelow: Remind me, what that a bad thing or a good thing? It's hard to keep track.
[01:42]	MinceR	CrystalMath: well, even russia is helping build NATO now
[01:43]	MinceR	they've convinced Finland and Sweden to join, after all
[01:43]	matey	its absolutely incredible how much devestation has been caused by one australian immigrant telling america that everything foreign is bad
[01:43]	CrystalMath	so people who support russia as it is now should support Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi
[01:43]	matey	they've convinced Finland and Sweden <- wait, sweden joined what
[01:44]	CrystalMath	Muammar Gaddafi was 100% innocent, at least that's something we know now
[01:44]	MinceR	matey: Sweden wants to join the NATO
[01:44]		*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights
[01:44]	matey	youd think they would be too educated to think there was a point in it
[01:44]	matey	i get the lesser evilism angle (despite my feelings about it in general)
[01:45]	matey	hell if i were in that part of europe, id at least consider nato (even knowing better)
[01:45]	matey	from here i can say its a lot of wank
[01:45]	activelow	i don't think sweden or finland need NATO, if at all, it is NATO who need sweden and finland
[01:45]	matey	in finland they probably think torvalds invented unix
[01:46]	MinceR	if i were that close to terrorussia and didn't have both a conventional army that can easily crush terrorussia and nuclear weapons + defenses greater than that of terrorussia, i'd want to be a NATO member too
[01:46]	CrystalMath	the finns did invent IRC
[01:47]	activelow	MinceR: you're deluded, Balticum is supplied with 90% russian energy
[01:47]	MinceR	yeah, i know, everyone's deluded and you are the helicopter
[01:47]	activelow	why would anyone of them affiliate with NATO and aim at russia?
[01:47]	MinceR	that's not aiming at russia
[01:47]	MinceR	that's disincentivizing russia from attacking them
[01:48]	XRevan86	MinceR: He is D'Artagnan
[01:48]	activelow	MinceR: who was it, who detonated ballistic missiles in eastern ukraine?
[01:48]	activelow	year 2014 iirc
[01:49]	activelow	and why, regardless, did "EU" support the comedian?
[01:49]	MinceR	i can't follow most of your delusions
[01:49]	activelow	the conflict began 2014 already
[01:49]	MinceR	but i think the EU supports the president of ukraine because he was elected in actual free and fair elections
[01:50]	activelow	Minsk agreement insisted, free federal elections
[01:50]	MinceR	allegedly such things are the things the EU is for
[01:50]	MinceR	(not sure if one can tell by observing the EU's behavior though)
[01:50]	activelow	MinceR: this comedian received Bidler cash
[01:50]	MinceR	activelow: have you heard of the Budapest Memorandum?
[01:50]	matey	the eu is probably easier to understand once people realise its run by politicians
[01:51]	MinceR	lol
[01:51]	matey	two words, julia reda
[01:51]	activelow	yes, Ukraine was supposed to dismantle their entire WMD stockpiles
[01:51]	matey	i think that sums it up probably (it shouldnt, but it might)
[01:51]	XRevan86	Russia is probably easier to understand once people realise it's run by siloviki
[01:51]	MinceR	and terrorussia disclaimed any territorial claims toward ukraine
[01:51]	MinceR	and yet here we are
[01:52]	MinceR	ukraine has no WMDs and got invaded
[01:52]	MinceR	and the lesson from this is: never give up WMDs
[01:53]	activelow	certainly, there won't be any remaining, in Ukraine, with a comedian as president, who couldn't coordinate with his closest neighbor: Russia
[01:53]	matey	politicians are wmds
[01:53]	activelow	and stuffed his pockets with Burisma Bidler cash
[01:53]	matey	nobody ever bans those
[01:53]	XRevan86	Moldova also couldn't.
[01:53]	activelow	iirc, this comedian, had some offshore account, panama papers
[01:53]	MinceR	i would gladly ban politicians, but i don't have an army to do so with
[01:53]	matey	you should build one :)
[01:53]	activelow	if Putin does it, it's bad, if the Ukrainian comedian does it, it isn't mentioned
[01:54]	matey	its easier than it looks
[01:55]	MinceR	i can't afford one
[01:55]	matey	youd have to get one that will do it pro-bono :)
[01:55]	MinceR	activelow: did this comedian invade ukraine? did he annex crimea?
[01:55]	MinceR	matey: yeah, i can't
[01:55]	matey	i mean this is funny, but im only half kidding
[01:55]	matey	dont underestimate yourself
[01:55]	activelow	MinceR: this comedian seized power and control over ukraine, and with it billion cash business with this drushba pipeline
[01:56]	MinceR	strange
[01:56]	MinceR	from here it looks awfully like he was elected democratically
[01:56]	activelow	MinceR: besides, although this comedian controls the drushba pipeline, it was still _russian_ gas funned into
[01:56]	activelow	although, don't ask me, who filled the offshore accounts of the comedian
[01:56]	activelow	given EU and Bidler propaganda, it seems obvious
[01:57]	XRevan86	First time I hear that a state president has control over the oil business.
[01:57]	activelow	maybe, the Pope can explain, what his plans were, to route "friendship" gas into italy
[01:57]	XRevan86	Except in Russia, but Russia is special.
[01:57]	matey	<MinceR> from here it looks awfully like he was elected democratically <- the rule of greater democracy states
[01:57]	matey	that if a democracy has a duly elected leader
[01:57]	matey	and a BETTER democracy also has a duly elected leader
[01:58]	matey	that the better democracy can declare YOUR democracy null and void
[01:58]	MinceR	lol
[01:58]	matey	and require you to put in a puppet leader via a barely-democratic "election"
[01:58]	matey	FOR DEMOCRACY
[01:58]	matey	i mean, if if the twentieth century taught us anything about politics
[01:59]	matey	its that this is like the rule #1 of democracy
[01:59]	IPFS	IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 40.70 k/sec., IPFS upstream 5.03 average k/sec., average swarm size 432.75
[01:59]	matey	even if its an unwritten rule
[01:59]	MinceR	isn't rule #1 of democracy "you do not talk about democracy"?
[01:59]	matey	rule 1 and 2
[01:59]	matey	but rules 3 through biscuit are mostly borrowed from calvinball
● May 30
[02:00]	activelow	anyway, why did energy prices explode in Germany, and these didn't in Italy/Spain/France at the time this started?
[02:00]	DaemonFC	This Classic SNL stuff wouldn't even be allowed today.
[02:00]	matey	and rules 1 and 2 are of course, subject to change at any time without notice
[02:00]	activelow	i see, northstream2 failed, and Druzhba terminated in italy
[02:00]	XRevan86	Before going to sleep, I'll mention that there is some truth to that: https://theguardian.com/news/2021/oct/03/revealed-anti-oligarch-ukrainian-president-offshore-connections-volodymyr-zelenskiy
[02:00]	TR Bot	 Revealed: anti-oligarch Ukrainian presidents offshore connections | Volodymyr Zelenskiy | The Guardian
[02:00]	DaemonFC	I thought it was funnier than hell when they had "Tom Brokaw" reading all the possible ways Gerald Ford could die (in 1996).
[02:00]	MinceR	probably because germany was stupid enough to get off nuclear energy despite not having a viable replacement for it
[02:01]	matey	the rule of administrative recursion states
[02:01]	XRevan86	I personally don't care all that much because compared to the levels of corruption I'm used to seeing in Russia this is a nitpick.
[02:01]	MinceR	i thought no human lives long enough to say all the possible ways in which a human can die
[02:01]	matey	that any government that would trust windows and its automatic updates
[02:01]	DaemonFC	And he gets to "Gerald Ford died today and I'm gay!" "Oh, come on!" and the guy says, "Well, what if Gerald Ford dies and you wake up that day and decide you like other men, and then another network gets it because we didn't have anything ready!?".
[02:02]	matey	cant be trusted not to emulate the same updates
[02:02]	XRevan86	Meanwhile Zelensky getting money from Biden is something Ilya Kyva would say.
[02:02]	matey	and thus change anything they want to, at any time, without consent of the public 
[02:02]	DaemonFC	<XRevan86> Meanwhile Zelensky getting money from Biden is something Ilya Kyva would say.
[02:02]	activelow	XRevan86: the Burisma Bidler impeachment proceeding never was finished, Trump "lost" the election... forgot already?
[02:02]	XRevan86	A lot of Kyva's fantasies spread like hot cakes in Russian state media.
[02:02]	DaemonFC	The US is getting an absolute bargain.
[02:03]	DaemonFC	It gets a war with Russia, that Russia is losing badly, that isn't really costing us a lot of money, that isn't even being fought by our soldiers.
[02:03]	DaemonFC	It's what politicans call a no lose proposition.
[02:04]	DaemonFC	And when Putin is done, the Russian military and economy will take decades to recover from this, if it ever does.
[02:04]	DaemonFC	Plus, I get to read about all of the ridiculous names for McDonalds you guys are coming up with.
[02:04]	XRevan86	Kyva said that Zelensky has more than a billion dollars and a villa in Miami.
[02:04]	DaemonFC	No wonder gay people are illegal in Russia.
[02:04]	DaemonFC	You aren't a very imaginative bunch.
[02:04]	matey	hes also secretly gay
[02:05]	matey	and cheating on his wife
[02:05]	XRevan86	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illia_Kyva
[02:05]	TR Bot	 Illia Kyva - Wikipedia
[02:05]	XRevan86	He's a highly entertaining character, if ye can find information on him in English, go for it :)
[02:06]	matey	russian media sounds like a bunch of old women
[02:06]	matey	except obsessed with money instead of people holding hands (which could lead to dancing)
[02:07]	matey	implicit is the laughable idea that everyone except russia is corrupt :)
[02:07]	MinceR	apparently activelow believes that laughable idea
[02:08]	matey	russia is so pious, its like chuck norris except with propriety
[02:08]	XRevan86	DaemonFC: "You aren't a very imaginative bunch" <- I have a counter-example: McDonald's is literally one's last name.
[02:08]	matey	russia has never even masturbated
[02:08]	MinceR	chuck norris is a christian fundamentalist too
[02:09]	MinceR	he's campaigning for religious brainwashing of children
[02:09]	XRevan86	matey: Or it did, but then said that YOU did it.
[02:09]	matey	youre assuming he isnt a bad-ass version of jesus himself
[02:09]	MinceR	i wish he was
[02:09]	MinceR	because that would mean that he doesn't exist, just like jesus
[02:10]	matey	fun fact, chuck norris was once a guest at the hotel soviet, as was margaret thatcher
[02:10]	matey	stalin had his own suite of course
[02:10]	matey	im guessing they werent all there at the same time, as that paints a pretty horrible picture
[02:11]	activelow	MinceR: you wouldn't want to know, what I believe
[02:11]	MinceR	activelow: yet you're telling everyone here
[02:11]	activelow	i told what i _know_
[02:12]	XRevan86	But how that what ye _know_ be so wrong in many positions?
[02:12]	MinceR	yes, you told what you believe you know
[02:12]	XRevan86	But I do appreciate no mentions of Anti-Christ.
[02:12]	DaemonFC	It's not unusual to name a business after yourself.
[02:13]	MinceR	wasn't McDonald's named after someone other than the people running it, though?
[02:13]	MinceR	hm, apparently not
[02:13]	matey	McDonalds was named after Ray Kroc
[02:14]	matey	who was terrible at spelling
[02:14]	MinceR	lol
[02:16]	matey	i used to think it was named after ronald mcdonald, but that was actually williard scott
[02:18]	MinceR	i thought it was named after someone who manufactured machines they used, but apparently it was founded by the McDonald brothers and then taken over by Ray Kroc
[02:18]	matey	dave thomas actually named wendys after his daughter wendy
[02:19]	matey	but since both he and his daughter were too heavyset to be a brand for a burger chain
[02:19]	matey	they made a cartoon instead
[02:19]	MinceR	but even wikipedia contradicts itself on the history of McDonald's
[02:19]	matey	thats because the real story of mcdonalds is shrouded in mystery and intrigue
[02:19]	MinceR	one page says they had one arch and Ray Kroc came up with doubling it, the other page says it was doubled to begin with
[02:20]	matey	everyone knows its a front for the illuminati
[02:20]	matey	the golden arches are alien landing beacons
[02:20]	MinceR	lol
[02:20]	MinceR	most of them are pretty far from the pyramids though
[02:20]	matey	the above ground mcdonalds, yes
[02:21]	matey	but the REAL ONES are underground
[02:21]	matey	theres a drive thru, but its got laser scanners and biometric identification
[02:22]	matey	also pulse cannons
[02:22]	MinceR	what are pulse cannons shooting pulses of?
[02:22]	matey	secret ingredients
[02:22]	matey	that, and plasma
[02:23]	matey	when they say secret ingredients
[02:23]	matey	they mean ancient secrets
[02:23]	AdmFubar	are the justified ancients?
[02:24]	matey	but most of its origins were pretty mundane
[02:24]	matey	once you get past all the stories they made up to keep the real story secret
[02:24]	MinceR	of Mu Mu?
[02:24]	matey	you find out that after the roswell incident, the world leaders decided to connect everything together with underground tunnels
[02:24]	matey	thats pretty simple
[02:25]	matey	well, one thing about underground tunnels spanning the globe is
[02:25]	matey	you travel all that way, you get hungry
[02:25]	matey	mcdonalds was the first top-secret cia-funded fast food chain
[02:25]	matey	entirely underground, literally
[02:26]	matey	but like all such innovations, it eventually became a product for regular consumers
[02:26]	matey	like the internet and cell phones
[02:28]	AdmFubar	so when musk gets don't making his boring holes... what kind of terrible food awaits at the end of his rat maze?
[02:28]	matey	of course when you try to fix wikipedia so they finally get the history right
[02:29]	matey	they go and revert it because wikipedia exists mostly to keep people in the dark about such things
[02:29]	matey	theyve unwittingly become part of the coverup
[02:29]	matey	or wittingly, but the editors dont know any better

[04:24]	DaemonFC	<MinceR> i thought it was named after someone who manufactured machines they used, but apparently it was founded by the McDonald brothers and then taken over by Ray Kroc
[04:25]	DaemonFC	Ray Kroc was selling these "multi-mixer" things for ice cream.
[04:25]	DaemonFC	He went to sell them some and ended up liking their business and offering to start franchising it. They didn't like the idea because they didn't think they could maintain quality control, but he talked them into it.
[04:26]	DaemonFC	Then he slowly tricked and cheated them into selling over more and more of their business to him. He figured out that if he used a cheaper powder to make shakes with, he would eliminate the freezer space for ice cream and could just run it through a machine instead, and the McDonald brothers didn't like that. It was actually a violation of their contract, but he did it anyway.

[07:46]	TR News	34% of the British population never received a jab, any jab, for COVID-19. But of course the media presents the data differently. Over 38% never got a second jab, 52% never got a third one.
[07:50]	TR News	Why does this matter? Because this past week we reach all-time lows for COVID-19 vaccination in the UK. Just 3,000 for the day, all combined (even boosters). That's 0.004411% of the population.
[07:52]	TR News	The vaccine patent pools are going to look for products [sic] to replace what was lost. No, they won't pursue mass vaccination in Africa etc. "There's no money in it..." It's about patent monopolies and extraction of money from taxpayers via governments
[07:54]	TR News	If the war on coronavirus is over, then COVID-19 won because it's everywhere now and politicians have given up fighting. Yet worse, due to greed a lot of the world's population remains unprotected.
[07:55]	TR News	Lessons humans failed to learn from COVID-19 crisis: patents on medicine is a threat to mankind, people should really work from their homes where their job allows this, and the West is far too dependent on imports from overseas sweatshops

[20:42]	Sv	Modern Look is so passe we need post modern look
[20:43]	schestowitz_TR2	minimalist?
[20:43]	Sv	minimalist != post modern
[20:45]	DaemonFC	It seems like people are always trying to take what there is and make it worse somehow.
[20:45]	DaemonFC	The only use for MPEG 1 Layer 1 was a Compact Cassette with digital lossy audio stream on it, which had a DRM bit.
[20:46]	DaemonFC	I was reading about the format in Wikipedia. Philips was pushing it in the early 90s. The master (store bought original) tape had a DRM bit set which would allow one generation of copying, but you couldn't make a copy from a copied tape.
[20:47]	DaemonFC	So you could theoretically make copies for all your friends, but their copies would have the "copy" and not "master" bit set, so they couldn't make copies from theirs.
[20:47]	schestowitz_TR2	this sounds like BS
[20:47]	schestowitz_TR2	even "modern" DRM does not work
[20:47]	schestowitz_TR2	the mechanical DRM would not work either
[20:47]	schestowitz_TR2	creative people always find workarounds
[20:47]	schestowitz_TR2	in the case of video and audio more so than tractors
[20:47]	schestowitz_TR2	tractions can self-brick
[20:47]	DaemonFC	MPEG 1 Layer 1 was more like the Bluetooth SBC codec.
[20:48]	schestowitz_TR2	but things you see and hear you can also capture
[20:48]	DaemonFC	Lossy, simple subband. L/R stereo only.
[20:48]	DaemonFC	Needs a relatively high bitrate (384 kbps in both cases) just to sound halfway decent.
[20:48]	schestowitz_TR2	but wait, most people onyl have l and r
[20:49]	schestowitz_TR2	and low quality at that
[20:49]	schestowitz_TR2	like 9 volts
[20:49]	schestowitz_TR2	so when your sapling rate and channels are high and many you get no added value
[20:49]	DaemonFC	L/R and not M/S or Intensity stereo.
[20:49]	schestowitz_TR2	only more waste of storage space
[20:49]	DaemonFC	They're just more efficient ways of storing stereo.
[20:49]	Sv	i omly got L/R ears
[20:50]	schestowitz_TR2	some headphones can simulate front and back
[20:50]	schestowitz_TR2	but inside thew eardrum it does not mean much

[20:51]	DaemonFC	Mid/Side stores left and right in a more compact manner. It decodes back into L/R.
[20:51]	DaemonFC	You can do M/S in either a lossless or lossy manner depending on how you apply it.
[20:51]	schestowitz_TR2	the industry ran out of ideas
[20:51]	DaemonFC	MP3 applies it in the incorrect order, meaning there's no way to actually reconstruct the original stereo separation upon decoding.
[20:51]	schestowitz_TR2	engiuneers got bored
[20:51]	schestowitz_TR2	and now they make PHONES with 1920pixels across
[20:52]	Sv	meta verse
[20:52]	schestowitz_TR2	with batteries that barely last one day
[20:52]	DaemonFC	FLAC and WavPack do M/S too.
[20:52]	DaemonFC	It's also called Channel Coupling.
[20:53]	Sv	after metaverse you will get stuf streamed directly into your barin
[20:53]	Sv	brain
[20:53]	schestowitz_TR2	vr has a new name
[20:53]	schestowitz_TR2	"metaverse"
[20:53]	schestowitz_TR2	in 20077 it was "Second Life"
[20:54]	DaemonFC	Vorbis has a take on it too. You can do dual stereo, lossless (M/S), or Phase, which essentially permanently destroys the stereo coupling to save more space and just results in an approximation.
[20:54]	schestowitz_TR2	DaemonFC: yiou have fetishised FLAC as long as I'vew known you
[20:54]	DaemonFC	At q6 or higher, channel coupling is always lossless, but it saves some bits.
[20:54]	schestowitz_TR2	how many speakers are around you right now?
[20:54]	activelow	the problem isn't the bitrate, the problem is de/encoders/samplers need _headroom_ to prevent digital _clipping_
[20:54]	DaemonFC	Oh, I have a shelf system in the bedroom.
[20:54]	Sv	you mean joint stereo
[20:55]	DaemonFC	I have a soundbar with a woofer in the livingroom.
[20:55]	DaemonFC	A set of airpods. My Sony MDR-7506 headphones.
[20:55]	DaemonFC	And a Bose Wave Music System IV on the way.
[20:55]	schestowitz_TR2	DaemonFC: headphones are dual
[20:55]	schestowitz_TR2	l/r
[20:55]	activelow	higher sampling/bitrates cannot prevent digital clipping if headrom for de/reencoding/sampling is missing
[20:55]	activelow	*headroom
[20:55]	schestowitz_TR2	speakers are just glorified high-frequency vibtators
[20:55]	schestowitz_TR2	the woofer is justa  specialised one
[20:56]	schestowitz_TR2	better at high amplitude for low frequencies
[20:56]	DaemonFC	Yes, with the woofer connected, the soundbar does not play those frequencies. It passes them along.
[20:57]	schestowitz_TR2	if you play a piano or other stringed instrument the sound is produced by vibrations from many more sources
[20:57]	activelow	it is unpredictable which type of clipping artifacts (dis-harmonic distortions) digital encoders produce when headroom is missing
[20:57]	Sv	why streaming services dont use 60 fps?
[20:57]	activelow	_all_ encoders at any bitrate/sampling-rate require headroom
[20:57]	Sv	movies are 24 fps only
[20:57]	schestowitz_TR2	"HD"
[20:57]	schestowitz_TR2	when you watch from 10 feet away
[20:58]	schestowitz_TR2	of course at the shop they demonstrate that to you from one meter away
[20:58]	Sv	you coulf do 30 fps and it would look smoyhe
[20:58]	Sv	smoth
[20:58]	Sv	i recon 30 fps should be enought
[20:58]	schestowitz_TR2	the industry  lost marketing points
[20:58]	schestowitz_TR2	they now sell HD and massive screens
[20:58]	schestowitz_TR2	you could get 4 smaller ones for the same price
[20:58]	schestowitz_TR2	and combined these
[20:59]	IPFS	IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 32.75 k/sec., IPFS upstream 5.16 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
[20:59]	activelow	average framerates do not account for latency jitter (in the miliseconds range)
[20:59]	DaemonFC	There's been little point in buying a new TV in about the last 7 years or so unless yours just happens to break down.
[20:59]	schestowitz_TR2	maybe they should make better movies again
[20:59]	activelow	that's why, a 30fps low-jitter video-stream can be smooth and a 60fps high-jitter video-stream may not be
[20:59]	Sv	instead of having more pixel per inch they do bigger screens
[20:59]	schestowitz_TR2	rather than focus on how many pixels and frames they squeeze through
[20:59]	Sv	its cheaper
● May 30
[21:00]	schestowitz_TR2	but it's easier to 'brute-force' than to write better scripts
[21:00]	schestowitz_TR2	Sv: yes!!
[21:00]	schestowitz_TR2	Now they have new marketing terms
[21:00]	schestowitz_TR2	like "retina"
[21:00]	Sv	new?
[21:00]	schestowitz_TR2	that just means density of pixels is how it ssshould be
[21:00]	schestowitz_TR2	now many l;aptops come with 1080x1920 screens
[21:00]	schestowitz_TR2	that was considered "special" years ago
[21:01]	Sv	that retina stuff must be like over 10 yo
[21:01]	schestowitz_TR2	those screens do not cost much
[21:01]	schestowitz_TR2	5 years ago about 80 pouuds for brand new, 22 inch
[21:01]	MinceR	afaik only crApple uses that idiotic "retina" term
[21:01]	schestowitz_TR2	so an array of 4 for 320 pounds
[21:02]	Sv	cause only meth heads can tell the difrence?
[21:02]	schestowitz_TR2	almost 4000 pixels acoss or 7500 is laid horizontally
[21:02]	schestowitz_TR2	MinceR: no
[21:02]	schestowitz_TR2	it spread like a virus
[21:02]	schestowitz_TR2	but people with Jobs envy
[21:02]	DaemonFC	I do understand the argument that Amar Bose made about specification in speaker technology.
[21:02]	schestowitz_TR2	all those sound brands are BS
[21:03]	schestowitz_TR2	you can get a decent logitech cheaply
[21:03]	DaemonFC	Just because they can do, say, a range of frequency response, does not mean they do them well or accurately, or in a way that will be pleasing when a person actually hears it.
[21:03]	schestowitz_TR2	bang and ulofson is ripoff
[21:03]	schestowitz_TR2	for people with more money than they can figure out... what to do with
[21:03]	DaemonFC	So I mean, there is a degree of subjectiveness to it there, that does defy logic.
[21:03]	schestowitz_TR2	use casew
[21:03]	DaemonFC	<schestowitz_TR2> bang and ulofson is ripoff
[21:03]	schestowitz_TR2	carl goes to shop
[21:04]	DaemonFC	Well, HP makes really shitty laptops.
[21:04]	DaemonFC	And they use those speakers.

[21:04]	DaemonFC	The Bang and Ulofson ones.

[21:04]	DaemonFC	And of course, like any laptop, you turn the speakers up and it's terrible.
[21:04]	schestowitz_TR2	shit again
[21:04]	DaemonFC	Just terrible.
[21:04]	schestowitz_TR2	so congrats
[21:04]	Sv	bang and ulofson looks right with your ikea furniture
[21:04]	schestowitz_TR2	you bought a $50 product for 20 times th eprice
[21:05]	schestowitz_TR2	but your guests, if any, will be impressed by the brand
[21:05]	MinceR	30 220312 < DaemonFC> Just because they can do, say, a range of frequency response, does not mean they do them well or accurately, or in a way that will be pleasing when a person actually hears it.
[21:05]	schestowitz_TR2	Sv: yes, it's a fashion statement
[21:05]	MinceR	they could provide frequency response graphs, then.
[21:05]	DaemonFC	Well, I doubt that the Bose Wave system I bought is the actual BEST stereo you can get, but it also probably does outperform what you'd expect given the size of the system.
[21:05]	schestowitz_TR2	DaemonFC: same with hdmi screens
[21:05]	schestowitz_TR2	for compliance purposes they typically need headphone jack, socket
[21:05]	schestowitz_TR2	but they put the worst possible components there
[21:06]	schestowitz_TR2	just to tick that box
[21:06]	DaemonFC	The fact that it isn't 5 times larger and in three or four pieces with wiring going everywhere.
[21:06]	schestowitz_TR2	on laptops it varies
[21:06]	schestowitz_TR2	but you are better off sticking in headphones
[21:06]	activelow	almost always frequency response of speakers is screwed due to speaker positioning
[21:06]	schestowitz_TR2	or external sound system that does not come with the laptop, increasing its market value by like $500
[21:06]	activelow	and headphones have other disadvantages
[21:06]	DaemonFC	Well, you know, one possible use of the Wave System would be for your television.
[21:06]	Sv	to bad they cant make 7.1 headbuds
[21:06]	schestowitz_TR2	and when the laptop dies you get to keep the sound system
[21:07]	DaemonFC	You could use it instead of a soundbar. Just run a 3.5 mm cord or an RCA to 3.5 mm Y cable to the Aux In on the Bose.
[21:07]	activelow	the 5.1 and 7.1 systems are marketing scam, it is technical rubbish

[21:07]	DaemonFC	I mean, if it outperforms the soundbar and it's more compact and you like it, who cares?
[21:08]	schestowitz_TR2	how much does a soundbar cost?
[21:08]	DaemonFC	You can also buy a splitter to plug into the jack so you don't have to mess with wiring whenever you want to disconnect the TV and listen from your laptop.
[21:08]	DaemonFC	<schestowitz_TR2> how much does a soundbar cost?
[21:08]	activelow	in fact, 5.1 and 7.1 systems achieve what a high quality stereo system tries to avoid: undesirable phase-shifts
[21:08]	DaemonFC	As much as you want to pay.
[21:08]	DaemonFC	Bose sells soundbars for like $2,300 + tax.
[21:08]	schestowitz_TR2	(side story, in 2013 I bought a 7 piece logitech off ebay for 35 pounds, lasted me until last year when it just died)
[21:08]	DaemonFC	But thanks to the supply crisis, they have been having in stock problems.
[21:08]	DaemonFC	On the other hand, you can get a cheap Walmart brand one for less than $60.
[21:09]	schestowitz_TR2	so it's made in sweatshops
[21:09]	DaemonFC	It will be a step up from the TV speakers.
[21:09]	schestowitz_TR2	supply chain
[21:09]	schestowitz_TR2	I wonder how much Bose pays for labour and material
[21:09]	schestowitz_TR2	one option you have is sound multiplexing
[21:10]	schestowitz_TR2	get several systems on the cheap
[21:10]	schestowitz_TR2	then a signal splitter
[21:10]	schestowitz_TR2	I did this since I was a teen
[21:10]	schestowitz_TR2	you can run two cheap systems off that
[21:10]	DaemonFC	schestowitz_TR2, My AirGenius systems have an Oscillate button. I have to press it whenever I go to pick one up so I don't damage the motor.
[21:10]	schestowitz_TR2	my laptop has a plitter connected to it, you can hook up several devices at once
[21:10]	DaemonFC	But whenever I see something that ends in "ate" I can't help but saying it like a Dalek now.
[21:10]	schestowitz_TR2	in lennartaudio you cannot send to multiple sourced at once
[21:11]	schestowitz_TR2	*sourcers
[21:11]	DaemonFC	<schestowitz_TR2> I wonder how much Bose pays for labour and material
[21:11]	schestowitz_TR2	a lot of things are underutilised
[21:11]	schestowitz_TR2	why can't I get all the laptop to play the same thing at once
[21:11]	schestowitz_TR2	over the network?
[21:11]	DaemonFC	Probably not a lot. You're paying for a brand and the fact that they own patents and nobody else can make a system like that without either paying for royalties, or getting sued.
[21:12]	DaemonFC	And Bose doesn't sell the royalties, so they enter into deals where you get a Bose system in your car or something, like I have.
[21:13]	DaemonFC	The R&D probably cost them a lot at one point, a long time ago.
[21:13]	DaemonFC	Then they just tweak it and get more patents.
[21:13]	DaemonFC	It's like those Brita water filters.
[21:13]	DaemonFC	Here we are 30 years on, it's not illegal for someone else to make a water filter, but Brita keeps building a better one and patenting it.
[21:14]	DaemonFC	So as long as they can build a better mousetrap, then they still get the spoils.
[21:14]	DaemonFC	If someone wants to make a water filter that works exactly like the Brita cartridge from 1995, they can do that. It's not patented anymore, but those original Brita filters clogged up and were a nuisance.
[21:14]	DaemonFC	And they fixed that and got more patents.
[21:15]	DaemonFC	Now those patents will expire in like another 3 years.
[21:15]	DaemonFC	So they went back and designed a gravity fed carbon block filter that does a decent job, good flow rate.
[21:15]	DaemonFC	Everyone else will clone their second generation filter soon, but it won't be the best one you can buy.
[21:16]		*psydroid2 has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
[21:16]	DaemonFC	They stagger improvements until their patents are getting old, and then they file the patent on the improvement so they have time to get everyone transitioned to that and where they don't want the old model anymore.
[21:17]	DaemonFC	So Bose speakers, Brita filters, MPEG codecs.
[21:17]	DaemonFC	It all basically works that way.
[21:18]	DaemonFC	HEVC is a disaster not just in trying to license the patents, but a performance disaster as well, especially on the encoding side, but decoding is likely going to be hard on a lot of stuff even older than 2016, so not THAT long ago.
[21:18]	DaemonFC	I can play AV1 videos without my 2016 laptop breaking a sweat, but it's going full tilt when I try to run HEVC, and that's WITH a hardware-accelerated profile in the video chip!
[21:19]	DaemonFC	dav1d works better than HEVC, even though it's running entirely on the CPU.
[21:19]	DaemonFC	Now MPEG-LA is worried that they won't get the chance to dictate standards anymore, and then file a million patents on the new standard.
[21:21]	DaemonFC	It's nasty, but it's how business works in the current legal framework.
[21:22]	DaemonFC	schestowitz_TR2, I noticed that when I raised the possibility of the Batteries Plus guy "potentially infringing on GM's intellectual property" is about the time he gave up.
[21:23]	DaemonFC	I read somewhere that if the card networks rule that a merchant is selling counterfeit goods, they can cut them off from the payment network completely.
[21:23]		*Despatche has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
[21:24]	DaemonFC	So if MasterCard had made that ruling in the arbitration proceeding, it could have made his store unable to accept 48% of the credit and debit cards issued in the United States.
[21:24]	DaemonFC	:P
[21:25]	schestowitz_TR2	MPEG-LA  no longer does just MPEG
[21:25]	schestowitz_TR2	it's insane

[22:12]	activelow	today i'll finally remove the X11 DEC clutter from my system
[22:12]	activelow	the 1980/90s graphical workstation marketing fuzz of the industry
[22:13]	activelow	the only tragic victim of this... a german card game: Xskat
[22:14]	activelow	i was playing Skat for 30years, and since no players are remaining, here in "Germany" Nuernberg, i used to play Xskat against computer, for 10years to keep practicing

[22:16]	activelow	Xskat was a rather weak opponent btw.; there is only one other Skat game, Sigfried Skat, for Windows PC, bought that game, yet couldn't play anymore because no Windows
[22:17]	activelow	Sigfried Skat was relatively challenging, althouth i mastered that one too
[22:17]	activelow	and it was missing german suited card deck, and some fringe playing rules, such as revolution and ramsch
[22:17]	DaemonFC	schestowitz_TR2, Back to audio systems I liked that they stopped making, I got a closeout deal on some Altec Lansing PC speakers that were very strong for their size.

[22:18]	DaemonFC	They had built in subwoofers in each one, and they were conical.
[22:18]	activelow	Xskat was alot weaker (and somehow more realistic due to that), Xskat got the german-suited card deck which i wanted, anyway, gone
[22:18]	activelow	have to implment Skat card game for framebuffer console
[22:19]	MinceR	kde had lieutenant skat
[22:19]		*zleap has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
[22:19]	DaemonFC	I lost them when I had to flee John's house quickly. I bolted when I was using a throwaway Grindr profile to see where he was since I knew he was on it all the time. Later turned out that he wasn't on the Metra getting closer, he was just faking his GPS to look for people to have sex with on the way back from work without paying for premium.

[22:19]	DaemonFC	Like $70 I think. Half price.
[22:19]	DaemonFC	They were like $140 or 150 as reviewed I think.
[22:19]	activelow	MinceR: did you learn and play skat? i read it is common in some parts of Hungary.
[22:20]	MinceR	no

[22:21]	TR Bot	 NO TITLE
[22:21]	activelow	that's sad, tbh.
[22:21]	activelow	because, Skat is world cultural heritage, and too it is very useful for children to learn
[22:22]	activelow	to grasp some mathematical concepts, abstract symbols, and sets...
[22:22]	activelow	and probabilities, long before it is lectured 10years later in grammar school
[22:24]	activelow	the social aspect of it was important too, because it was played among workers, student fraternities, and university professors
[22:24]	DaemonFC	I'm interested in those mag-lev car suspensions that Amar Bose developed and why those didn't go into luxury cars.
[22:24]	activelow	and, it is a traditional card game among military
[22:24]	DaemonFC	It seems like a logical replacement for an air ride system that would perform better and cost less to install.
[22:25]	activelow	and it is a political symbol of resistence against authoritarian state
[22:25]	DaemonFC	schestowitz_TR2, Yes, I just gave up and used FLAC for a long time even just for casual listening.
[22:26]	DaemonFC	Then Opus got really good and I just no longer saw much point in using FLAC for listening.
[22:26]	DaemonFC	MP3 had glaring design flaws that made it sound wrong to me at any bitrate you could use with it that had to be possible to decode per the specification.
[22:26]	DaemonFC	And it didn't help that Microsoft implemented decoding wrong and the "solution" was to cripple LAME forever to deal with a codec from Windows XP.

[22:31]	activelow	"ciao bella... i'll come back" and they never returned home
[22:33]	activelow	in the beginning, when the soldiers recover in Italy, they weren't told
[22:34]	activelow	send away, never to return home again
