DaemonFC | hmm, inflation makes Dirty Harry sound cheap. Doctor was going to cut his pants off so he wouldn't have to hurt taking them off. Dirty Harry says "For $29.50, let it hurt" | Mar 10 00:55 |
DaemonFC | makes it sound like KMart pants | Mar 10 00:55 |
DaemonFC | but $29.50 in 1971 is $154.54 now | Mar 10 00:56 |
DaemonFC | those were some expensive pants | Mar 10 00:56 |
cubezzz2 | almost 40 years ago :) | Mar 10 00:56 |
DaemonFC | also, the killer asked for $100,000 at first, and $200,000 later, which is now $523,865.55 and $1,047,731.10 | Mar 10 00:57 |
cubezzz2 | no PCs in 1971 | Mar 10 00:58 |

-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[davidgerard] there's nothing like discovering shock sites you'd never heard of by cleaning dead sites off yer hosting box ... | Mar 10 00:59 | |
DaemonFC | inflation has also brought my rent down | Mar 10 00:59 |
cubezzz2 | I can remember when gas was 50 cents per gallon | Mar 10 01:00 |
DaemonFC | $470 a month still, but that's $454.61 in 2006 | Mar 10 01:00 |
DaemonFC | inflation has brought my rent down $15.39 a month | Mar 10 01:00 |
cubezzz2 | 1970 gas = $0.36 a gallon | Mar 10 01:00 |
cubezzz2 | but here's the kicker: | Mar 10 01:01 |
DaemonFC | "What cost $0.36 in 1970 would cost $1.97 in 2009." | Mar 10 01:01 |
DaemonFC | USD right? | Mar 10 01:01 |
cubezzz2 | yes | Mar 10 01:01 |
oiaohm | cubezzz2: the formal NT design is good | Mar 10 01:01 |
oiaohm | The MS implementation of the NT design is a complete mess. | Mar 10 01:01 |
cubezzz2 | the avg hourly rate of pay was $1.65 :) | Mar 10 01:01 |
cubezzz2 | oiaohm, and I believe a lot of stuff was embedded into the win32 layer | Mar 10 01:02 |
oiaohm | That does not follow the formal NT design. cubezzz2 | Mar 10 01:02 |
cubezzz2 | wow, $1.65 per hour sounds really low | Mar 10 01:03 |
oiaohm | ntdll in the formal nt design was intented to be the bridge between subsystems. | Mar 10 01:03 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, in 1970? | Mar 10 01:03 |
cubezzz2 | DaemonFC, yes | Mar 10 01:03 |
DaemonFC | $1.65 in 1970 is $9.02 in 2009 | Mar 10 01:04 |
oiaohm | By the formal design you could run any one of the subsystems alone. cubezzz2 | Mar 10 01:04 |
cubezzz2 | is it possible to run windows in text mode in any version of windows? | Mar 10 01:04 |
oiaohm | Now you come forward to the non formal design following mess of NT today reomve the win32 subsystem everything stops. | Mar 10 01:04 |
cubezzz2 | then they really botched it up | Mar 10 01:05 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, Kind of | Mar 10 01:05 |
DaemonFC | Server Core | Mar 10 01:05 |
oiaohm | Server core can run with ntdll only features provied but its very limiting. | Mar 10 01:05 |
cubezzz2 | some old timers are saying Xenix could have stopped the growth of Linux | Mar 10 01:05 |
oiaohm | Yes text only works from there. | Mar 10 01:05 |
oiaohm | There were far stronger Unix's and BSD that could have put up resistance to Linux. | Mar 10 01:06 |
oiaohm | And they failed so what chance did Xenix have. | Mar 10 01:06 |
DaemonFC | yeah, BSD got sued | Mar 10 01:06 |
scientes | GPL is superior | Mar 10 01:06 |
scientes | it encourages contribution over forking | Mar 10 01:06 |
cubezzz2 | oiaohm, if Microsoft had put the effort into Xenix that it put into Windows... | Mar 10 01:06 |
DaemonFC | scientes, In some ways | Mar 10 01:06 |
cubezzz2 | who knows what would have happened | Mar 10 01:07 |
scientes | especially for such a critical and high-quality piece | Mar 10 01:07 |
scientes | *neccicarily high-quality piece | Mar 10 01:07 |
oiaohm | With the same quality of implementors most. cubezzz2 I don't think it would have got far. | Mar 10 01:07 |
cubezzz2 | but we have GNU/Linux so it's not too bad | Mar 10 01:07 |
DaemonFC | FreeBSD has ZFS now, where Linux has to have BtrFS built from scratch | Mar 10 01:07 |
scientes | BtrFS is a much better FS | Mar 10 01:07 |
DaemonFC | though with Oracle behind both, you wonder why they don't license ZFS under GPL somehow | Mar 10 01:07 |
scientes | ZFS is bloated | Mar 10 01:08 |
oiaohm | Linux has ZFS as fuse DaemonFC | Mar 10 01:08 |

scientes | if BSD was unencumbered first I think things would have been woorse | Mar 10 01:08 |
scientes | GPL worked | Mar 10 01:08 |
oiaohm | Currently not much uses ZFS. | Mar 10 01:09 |
scientes | BtrFS looks promising as _the_ future linux FS | Mar 10 01:09 |
scientes | NTFS is actually better | Mar 10 01:09 |
oiaohm | Really. | Mar 10 01:10 |
scientes | than the existing ext3 | Mar 10 01:10 |
scientes | :P | Mar 10 01:10 |

scientes | sort-of | Mar 10 01:10 |
scientes | it seems better than ext | Mar 10 01:10 |
oiaohm | streams are kinda fake. | Mar 10 01:10 |
DaemonFC | scientes, If it wasn't for ego wars, XFS would be the default | Mar 10 01:11 |
DaemonFC | and would have been for a while now | Mar 10 01:11 |
cubezzz2 | ah the ego wars | Mar 10 01:11 |
cubezzz2 | those never end :) | Mar 10 01:11 |
scientes | penis wars | Mar 10 01:11 |
oiaohm | Really all streams do really is filename|someextra name. | Mar 10 01:11 |
oiaohm | In the file table in NTFS | Mar 10 01:11 |
scientes | oO0 | Mar 10 01:11 |
scientes | is back versions a similar hack oiaohm ? | Mar 10 01:11 |
oiaohm | Yep | Mar 10 01:12 |
scientes | ahh | Mar 10 01:12 |
scientes | XFS has the B+ trees | Mar 10 01:12 |
oiaohm | extents in NTFS has the same kinds of limitations as VFS under Linux. | Mar 10 01:12 |
oiaohm | Ie you can over lay an directory. | Mar 10 01:13 |
scientes | CoW is better than journaling | Mar 10 01:13 |
oiaohm | Compared to ext4 and btrfs extents that are more flexable. | Mar 10 01:13 |
scientes | what about directory hardlinks | Mar 10 01:13 |
oiaohm | Basically NTFS really does not have that many extra feature. | Mar 10 01:14 |
oiaohm | Ext3 supports directory hardlinks | Mar 10 01:14 |
scientes | cool what Apple did with that in HFS | Mar 10 01:14 |
oiaohm | So does ext2 before and minix filesystem before that. scientes | Mar 10 01:14 |
scientes | should be turned on to create a wayback-machine clone | Mar 10 01:14 |
scientes | cause thats cool | Mar 10 01:14 |
scientes | or brtfs with mountable snapshops creates same effect with better performance | Mar 10 01:15 |
oiaohm | CoW and atomic systems have some advantages over journal based but they have there disadvantages asell. | Mar 10 01:15 |
oiaohm | Don't forget about logical volume management snapshotting as well scientes | Mar 10 01:16 |
oiaohm | There is more than 1 way to skin a roll back system cat. | Mar 10 01:16 |
scientes | I want a better gui for LVM and gparted support :P | Mar 10 01:17 |
oiaohm | Now the way XP trys to skin the cat of a roll back system is the one system that can never work right. You could bet that MS would find the one that shreds the skin and the cat leaving nothing usable. | Mar 10 01:18 |
oiaohm | really I would just like parted to have lvm support then it come up from there. | Mar 10 01:19 |
scientes | yep | Mar 10 01:19 |

Ender2070 | it was a debian-unstable freeze if IIRC | Mar 10 03:46 |
DaemonFC | yeah, still is mostly | Mar 10 03:46 |
cubezzz | Fedora does the job for me | Mar 10 03:46 |
DaemonFC | but it's what's on top that's changing | Mar 10 03:46 |
Ender2070 | I <3 Fedora | Mar 10 03:46 |
DaemonFC | does anyone have a GNOME Fedora 12 off the DVD? | Mar 10 03:47 |
DaemonFC | can anyone confirm Mono is still in there? | Mar 10 03:47 |
Ender2070 | its there if you tell it to install ALL the packages on the dvd | Mar 10 03:47 |
cubezzz | I'm on Fc1 at the moment :) | Mar 10 03:47 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, As of F11 just selecting GNOME DEsktop gave you Mono | Mar 10 03:47 |
Ender2070 | on the dvd maybe | Mar 10 03:48 |
cubezzz | off the live CD, I don't think it does | Mar 10 03:48 |
Ender2070 | not on the livecd at all | Mar 10 03:48 |
DaemonFC | no, LiveCD is clean | Mar 10 03:48 |
DaemonFC | is the push for Mono in GNOME strong within GNOME? | Mar 10 03:48 |
DaemonFC | or is those mostly distros bolting it on? | Mar 10 03:48 |
Ender2070 | yes | Mar 10 03:48 |
cubezzz | Ender2070, I got a question about F12 | Mar 10 03:49 |
Ender2070 | gnome includes mono dependancies by default | Mar 10 03:49 |
DaemonFC | *this | Mar 10 03:49 |
cubezzz | is there a gui for installing new programs? | Mar 10 03:49 |
cubezzz | there doesn't seem to be one | Mar 10 03:49 |
cubezzz | under KDE | Mar 10 03:49 |
DaemonFC | I like GNOME | Mar 10 03:49 |
cubezzz | I have to switch to GNOME or just command line to install stuff | Mar 10 03:49 |
cubezzz | plus GNOME doesn't seem to have anything like klipper | Mar 10 03:50 |
Ender2070 | kpackagekit | Mar 10 03:51 |
cubezzz | ah | Mar 10 03:51 |
Ender2070 | it works at disabling and enabling repo's too | Mar 10 03:52 |
cubezzz | there was kpackage in the olden days :) | Mar 10 03:53 |
cubezzz | I just never used it | Mar 10 03:53 |
Ender2070 | same | Mar 10 03:54 |
Ender2070 | i didnt like fedora till more recently too | Mar 10 03:54 |
cubezzz | bah, you newbies :) | Mar 10 03:55 |
cubezzz | FC1 is the best EVAR :) | Mar 10 03:55 |
cubezzz | what about Redhat 8.0? | Mar 10 03:55 |
Ender2070 | I used Redhat 5.2, 6.x, 7.1 | Mar 10 03:56 |
cubezzz | ah well then | Mar 10 03:56 |
cubezzz | now does kpackage still work in FC1 I wonder | Mar 10 03:58 |
Ender2070 | i doubt it | Mar 10 04:03 |
Ender2070 | repos are LONG gone | Mar 10 04:03 |
cubezzz | I'm too scared to try it :) | Mar 10 04:03 |
cubezzz | yeah usually I just compile stuff | Mar 10 04:03 |
sebsebseb | I am being told else where that Apple got bought out by Microsoft | Mar 10 04:03 |
sebsebseb | hrm | Mar 10 04:03 |
sebsebseb | something about how apparnatly in USA can't have more than 80% of the market | Mar 10 04:04 |
cubezzz | they can't do that | Mar 10 04:04 |
Ender2070 | umm | Mar 10 04:04 |
Ender2070 | they _do_ own apple stocks | Mar 10 04:04 |

cubezzz | Microsoft sold their Apple stocks at a profit btw | Mar 10 04:07 |
sebsebseb | I am going to copy in what that guy put, since I didn't explain it properly | Mar 10 04:07 |
cubezzz | umm, I think you mean NextStep | Mar 10 04:08 |
*Omar87 (~omar@92.253.1.98) has joined #boycottnovell | Mar 10 04:08 | |
sebsebseb | sebsebseb, in the USA you can not have more then 80% of the market or they cut your company into bits (example at&t 1970's) | Mar 10 04:08 |
sebsebseb | apple was dieing linuxx was only 2% of the market | Mar 10 04:08 |
Omar87 | Howdy all! :D | Mar 10 04:08 |
cubezzz | you can't really buy GNU Step :) | Mar 10 04:08 |
sebsebseb | M$ buys out apple but keeps it under a different name | Mar 10 04:09 |
DaemonFC | GNUStep is a NextStep workalike, right? | Mar 10 04:09 |
DaemonFC | think I used it once | Mar 10 04:09 |
cubezzz | DaemonFC, yes | Mar 10 04:09 |
sebsebseb | then 2000ish apple buys out GnuSTeP from steven jobs | Mar 10 04:09 |
cubezzz | a FOSS version | Mar 10 04:09 |
sebsebseb | GnuSTeP w/ BSD code = mac os x | Mar 10 04:09 |
sebsebseb | basicly it was to save M$'s ass sebsebseb | Mar 10 04:10 |
cubezzz | NextStep was closed source anyways | Mar 10 04:10 |
sebsebseb | excuss my language | Mar 10 04:10 |
Omar87 | The silliest news of the week, imho, are the Ubuntu logo and themes that were made using Apple Macs. | Mar 10 04:10 |
cubezzz | at Waterloo guys were playing Arkanoid on the Next computer :) | Mar 10 04:11 |
cubezzz | back in the late 80's | Mar 10 04:11 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: oh they were made with OS X | Mar 10 04:11 |
sebsebseb | :( | Mar 10 04:11 |

WireWulf | o/ | Mar 10 04:11 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: that's a bit like people making stuff for open source projects, using Photoshop | Mar 10 04:11 |
sebsebseb | anyway here's the guy I was on about | Mar 10 04:11 |
cubezzz | Fedora just seems better to me than all the others | Mar 10 04:11 |
Omar87 | sebsebseb, what's their explanation? "Ubuntu is not ready for graphic design yet." | Mar 10 04:12 |
cubezzz | bah that's silly to say | Mar 10 04:12 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: I don't know, but I haven't read they were made using Mac OS X | Mar 10 04:12 |
cubezzz | we have GIMP, we have inkscape | Mar 10 04:12 |
cubezzz | I've done professional jobs using both | Mar 10 04:12 |
Omar87 | sebsebseb, which is like saying "The camel is limping because it's having a headache." | Mar 10 04:13 |
WireWulf | both are still weak compared to photoshop | Mar 10 04:13 |
WireWulf | Unixxx will have a powerful photo editor one day soon | Mar 10 04:14 |
Omar87 | cubezzz: Moreover, if huge and complicated projects like the Avatar movie were accomplished using Ubuntu, why can't some simple theme and logo designs be done using it as well? | Mar 10 04:14 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: Made with Photoshop on OS X? | Mar 10 04:14 |
cubezzz | heh | Mar 10 04:14 |
Omar87 | sebsebseb, I guess, yes. | Mar 10 04:14 |
DaemonFC | Omar87, They used RHEL | Mar 10 04:14 |
DaemonFC | from what I read | Mar 10 04:15 |
cubezzz | let me put it this way... | Mar 10 04:15 |
cubezzz | I can't think of anything I need photoshop for | Mar 10 04:15 |
cubezzz | but feel free sending your money to Abode :) | Mar 10 04:15 |

DaemonFC | Omar87, Thought you were talking about Avatar | Mar 10 04:16 |
cubezzz | If you want small go for Tiny Core :) | Mar 10 04:17 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: maybe it wasn't clear enough or it was kind of, but you messaged wrong person, I wanted a link | Mar 10 04:17 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: for the Ubuntu thing | Mar 10 04:17 |
scientes | coreboot | Mar 10 04:17 |
scientes | or just debian standard installs | Mar 10 04:18 |
WireWulf | if you want small use a mini floppy os written in assmbler code from the 80's earily 90's | Mar 10 04:18 |
scientes | esp with emdebian | Mar 10 04:18 |
scientes | emdebian is actually quite sweet | Mar 10 04:18 |
scientes | grip | Mar 10 04:18 |
cubezzz | no thanks, I like C language | Mar 10 04:19 |
scientes | identical to debian, but no docs, man pages, or translations | Mar 10 04:19 |
cubezzz | and x86 isn't fun to program in | Mar 10 04:19 |
scientes | makes it like 1/2 the size | Mar 10 04:19 |
WireWulf | cubezzz, nope nor is x64 but it is still there | Mar 10 04:19 |
cubezzz | I'd crunch integers on a 6502 1 gigahertz if it existed | Mar 10 04:20 |
Omar87 | sebsebseb, yeah, sorry. | Mar 10 04:20 |
scientes | WireWulf, x86_64 | Mar 10 04:20 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: they should use native Linux tools | Mar 10 04:20 |
sebsebseb | Omar87: to make branding images | Mar 10 04:21 |
WireWulf | anyway is there a boycott java yet | Mar 10 04:21 |
scientes | or according to AMD, amd64 | Mar 10 04:21 |
DaemonFC | http://geeksmack.net/mobile/1133-ubuntu-shows-up-on-smartphones | Mar 10 04:21 |
scientes | but x64 is a misnomer created by Microsoft | Mar 10 04:21 |
sebsebseb | WireWulf: uh what's up with Java? it's open source now, or most of it is | Mar 10 04:21 |
cubezzz | java is OK | Mar 10 04:21 |

WireWulf | Ender2070, i didnt do that either | Mar 10 04:26 |
Ender2070 | 30 day trial? | Mar 10 04:26 |
WireWulf | cracked | Mar 10 04:26 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, He cracked it or paid for it, it won't build from source and say Xchat | Mar 10 04:26 |
Ender2070 | LOL | Mar 10 04:26 |
DaemonFC | unless he edited the makefile | Mar 10 04:26 |
cubezzz | WireWulf, I can highly recommended a Panasonic Toughbook | Mar 10 04:26 |

sebsebseb | WireWulf: and this is a publically logged channel | Mar 10 04:26 |
*cubezzz laughs | Mar 10 04:27 | |
WireWulf | sebsebseb, so what i am a publicly logged user :P | Mar 10 04:27 |
scientes | not that its illegal | Mar 10 04:27 |
scientes | because xchat is open source | Mar 10 04:27 |
scientes | so cracking it is 100% legal | Mar 10 04:27 |
cubezzz | and sometimes sebsebseb uses torrents! | Mar 10 04:27 |
cubezzz | ;-) | Mar 10 04:27 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, If it says XChat, then it's paid for, cracked, or he edited the makefile by hand before he built from source. The free ones that you can build from source all say YChat. | Mar 10 04:27 |
Ender2070 | its a tough one | Mar 10 04:27 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: not all torrents are illegal | Mar 10 04:28 |
cubezzz | of course | Mar 10 04:28 |
WireWulf | nope | Mar 10 04:28 |
Ender2070 | just because its open source doesn't mean you can crack it | Mar 10 04:28 |
WireWulf | not all copyrights are right either | Mar 10 04:28 |
scientes | if its licenced under the GPL | Mar 10 04:28 |
Ender2070 | you can demand the source code | Mar 10 04:28 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, also, the source you can get hasn't been updated and will report Windows Vista | Mar 10 04:28 |
DaemonFC | even on Windows 7 | Mar 10 04:28 |
scientes | then the DMCA anti-circumvention clause does not apply | Mar 10 04:28 |
cubezzz | the best operating system was TOPS-10 | Mar 10 04:29 |
scientes | vista 7 | Mar 10 04:29 |
cubezzz | Paul Allen agrees with me :) | Mar 10 04:29 |
scientes | best vista yet! | Mar 10 04:29 |
WireWulf | win7 = windows 6.1 i offton wonder who did the math | Mar 10 04:29 |
DaemonFC | scientes, XChat will report Windows NT x.x, YChat will say Windows XP, Windows Vista | Mar 10 04:29 |
DaemonFC | etc. | Mar 10 04:29 |

tessier__ | OpenGL is the open standard which even Linux supports. | Mar 10 05:00 |
Ender2070 | to get more devs on directx and depreciate opengl | Mar 10 05:00 |
Ender2070 | opengl gets emulated and ends up being slower | Mar 10 05:00 |
tessier__ | DirectX is Microsoft's own lock-in technology. | Mar 10 05:00 |
tessier__ | So of course they want everyone to use that instead. | Mar 10 05:00 |
GnuWulf | openGL is better + more gameing companys use it | Mar 10 05:01 |
Ender2070 | i wish that was true | Mar 10 05:01 |
GnuWulf | i havent seen a major change in Directx in awail | Mar 10 05:01 |

DaemonFC | someone asked if I had any better ideas than the mayor firing all those police officers and firefighters and putting the extra equipment on eBay | Mar 10 06:28 |
GnuWulf | :O | Mar 10 06:28 |
DaemonFC | I say "Yeah, as a matter of fact...I think we should put the mayor, the city council, and our prosecutor on eBay, list in the description the status of the town when they got in and where we are now, and see if there's any bids" | Mar 10 06:29 |
*Omar87 has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Mar 10 06:30 | |

DaemonFC | there's no taxes at all that way B-) | Mar 10 06:31 |
GnuWulf | i am not a fan of big goverment or studing goverment | Mar 10 06:33 |
GnuWulf | but :P | Mar 10 06:33 |
Ender2070 | [01:22] <DaemonFC> I think we should all agree to go back to subsistence farming | Mar 10 06:33 |
DaemonFC | Well, they're going to be hiring private Medicare and Medicaid auditors finally | Mar 10 06:33 |
Ender2070 | bam, i support you +1 | Mar 10 06:33 |
DaemonFC | pay them a percent of whatever fraud they uncover | Mar 10 06:33 |
Ender2070 | self-sustainability :) | Mar 10 06:33 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, I plan to convert my yard into a marijuana farm | Mar 10 06:34 |
Ender2070 | ROFLMAO | Mar 10 06:34 |
DaemonFC | trade it for some tomatoes and cows milk and shit | Mar 10 06:34 |
DaemonFC | :D | Mar 10 06:34 |
DaemonFC | that can be the new economy | Mar 10 06:34 |
DaemonFC | And when you ask me how much green I unloaded for that, it'll have a whole new meaning | Mar 10 06:35 |
GnuWulf | lol | Mar 10 06:35 |
GnuWulf | stonerZ | Mar 10 06:35 |
Ender2070 | I think technology is reaching a point where we can have all the nice things we're used to without the government | Mar 10 06:36 |
Ender2070 | and without having to pay someone for some basic needs | Mar 10 06:36 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, I also say we should fire all of the police, there is only one law now, and that is whoever shoots first is right | Mar 10 06:36 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Mar 10 06:36 |
Ender2070 | without laws and regulations, people would be forced to get their HONOUR back | Mar 10 06:37 |
Ender2070 | code duello | Mar 10 06:37 |
DaemonFC | exactly | Mar 10 06:37 |
DaemonFC | there will be less crime that way | Mar 10 06:38 |
DaemonFC | call it a hunch | Mar 10 06:38 |
Ender2070 | yeah | Mar 10 06:38 |
GnuWulf | less laws = less crime | Mar 10 06:38 |
GnuWulf | yay | Mar 10 06:38 |
Ender2070 | yes | Mar 10 06:38 |
Ender2070 | crime wouldn't exist if theres no laws | Mar 10 06:38 |
Ender2070 | logically | Mar 10 06:38 |
Ender2070 | since nothing would be illegal | Mar 10 06:38 |
DaemonFC | GnuWulf, Well yeah, I mainly meant if people think they're going to be shot to death for doing bad things | Mar 10 06:38 |
DaemonFC | they probably won't do bad things | Mar 10 06:38 |
Ender2070 | yeah | Mar 10 06:39 |
DaemonFC | the reason there's so much crime now is because the consequences are too light | Mar 10 06:39 |
Ender2070 | people do bad things now because if they go to jail, they get 3 free meals a day, internet access, and a college education | Mar 10 06:39 |
Ender2070 | theres no downside | Mar 10 06:40 |
DaemonFC | if you rolled out the guillotine and made pretty damned sure that any murderer, rapist, child molester, meth lab operator, etc. KNEW they would get it | Mar 10 06:40 |
GnuWulf | umm ever been to county lock-up | Mar 10 06:40 |
DaemonFC | stuff like that would drop to near zero | Mar 10 06:40 |
cubezzz | they did that in France | Mar 10 06:41 |
cubezzz | there was still murders, rape, etc | Mar 10 06:41 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, Stick them in a dark cell with a cement slab for a bed and feed them gruel | Mar 10 06:41 |
Ender2070 | theres people not afraid of death, true | Mar 10 06:41 |
DaemonFC | make their restroom be that hole in the floor | Mar 10 06:41 |
Ender2070 | fly them into north korea | Mar 10 06:42 |
Ender2070 | paratroops | Mar 10 06:42 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, That's how I'd get costs down and make sure there were fewer volunteers | Mar 10 06:42 |
Ender2070 | LOL heres an idea | Mar 10 06:42 |
GnuWulf | DaemonFC: north korea is no mans land | Mar 10 06:42 |
DaemonFC | I'd make prison so nasty that it bordered on cruel and unusual, Ender2070 | Mar 10 06:43 |
DaemonFC | They wouldn't have luxuries | Mar 10 06:43 |
DaemonFC | not a one | Mar 10 06:43 |
GnuWulf | DaemonFC: trade them to china to lower what we owe them | Mar 10 06:43 |
Ender2070 | make a guvernment funded lottery based on this premise: People will take bets on which prisoners don't use their parachute, and which ones land and get tortured | Mar 10 06:43 |
DaemonFC | GnuWulf, Deport them to Mexico | Mar 10 06:43 |
GnuWulf | DaemonFC: china has slavery | Mar 10 06:44 |
GnuWulf | >.> | Mar 10 06:44 |
DaemonFC | kind of | Mar 10 06:44 |
Ender2070 | any country with taxes has slavery | Mar 10 06:44 |
Ender2070 | its just a matter of perception | Mar 10 06:44 |
DaemonFC | I doubt they want our prisoners | Mar 10 06:44 |
DaemonFC | Ender2070, The room is logged | Mar 10 06:45 |
cubezzz | guys, how do you think garbage pickup, roads and schools get built? | Mar 10 06:45 |
DaemonFC | that's why I don't tell you how much I pay in taxes | Mar 10 06:45 |
cubezzz | by tax money | Mar 10 06:45 |
GnuWulf | DaemonFC: i look at it this way "you can have this man and work him to death all we ask is you subtract it from what we owe you" | Mar 10 06:45 |
Ender2070 | why do we need to much garbage waste | Mar 10 06:45 |
Ender2070 | so much | Mar 10 06:45 |
DaemonFC | GnuWulf, But then they put him to work making shit to sell to us | Mar 10 06:45 |
DaemonFC | :) | Mar 10 06:45 |
Ender2070 | roads only assist in our slavery | Mar 10 06:46 |
Ender2070 | and schools brainwash us into accepting all of it | Mar 10 06:46 |
cubezzz | ah, OK :) | Mar 10 06:46 |
GnuWulf | DaemonFC: tis the cycle of life | Mar 10 06:46 |
DaemonFC | I pay sales tax | Mar 10 06:46 |
DaemonFC | that's about it | Mar 10 06:46 |
Ender2070 | there are so many things we're programmed to want | Mar 10 06:46 |
Ender2070 | we werent put on this planet to watch tv | Mar 10 06:47 |
GnuWulf | there is a state without sxtate taxes guess what there students have a higher education level :P | Mar 10 06:47 |
cubezzz | Ender2070, I think Alberta has no sales tax? | Mar 10 06:47 |
Ender2070 | false | Mar 10 06:47 |
Ender2070 | it'll have gst | Mar 10 06:47 |
Ender2070 | and | Mar 10 06:47 |
DaemonFC | GnuWulf, Texas has no income tax | Mar 10 06:47 |
Ender2070 | in july, it will have harmonized tax | Mar 10 06:48 |
Ender2070 | 8% higher for us in ontario | Mar 10 06:48 |
GnuWulf | DaemonFC: think it was a northeren state but most taxens seem smart | Mar 10 06:48 |
cubezzz | Ender2070, with no garbage pickup you better be composting at least :) | Mar 10 06:48 |
Ender2070 | society could generate less garbage | Mar 10 06:48 |
cubezzz | true | Mar 10 06:49 |
Ender2070 | how much bullshit do we buy | Mar 10 06:49 |
cubezzz | again, look at the Amish | Mar 10 06:49 |
GnuWulf | state income tax in alabama sucks | Mar 10 06:49 |
cubezzz | if you want to go down that road | Mar 10 06:49 |
GnuWulf | no matter what you owe the state | Mar 10 06:49 |
Ender2070 | i think we can do something similar, _with_ technology | Mar 10 06:49 |
cubezzz | in England it used to be really bad for the under-class | Mar 10 06:50 |
GnuWulf | Ender2070: recycle, switch to epaper, order stuff you need online, and dont go to walmart | Mar 10 06:50 |
cubezzz | you got caught hunting on some rich dudes land, you got put in jail | Mar 10 06:50 |
Ender2070 | imagine if everyone had their own personal breeder reactor | Mar 10 06:50 |
DaemonFC | We should abolish state governments anyway | Mar 10 06:50 |
Ender2070 | pretty soon people will be allowed to have their own wimax transmitters too | Mar 10 06:51 |
cubezzz | we should really get rid of phone books and newspapers at least | Mar 10 06:51 |
Ender2070 | why would we need to keep funding dsl infustructure if a new network emerged over wireless with no centralized control due to everyone having wimax transmitters/receivers | Mar 10 06:51 |
cubezzz | I can see a problem though | Mar 10 06:52 |
Ender2070 | sure there are | Mar 10 06:52 |
Ender2070 | i just thought of it a minute ago | Mar 10 06:52 |
cubezzz | with inter-continental net usage | Mar 10 06:52 |
Ender2070 | lol | Mar 10 06:52 |
cubezzz | dsl could be cheaper though | Mar 10 06:52 |
Ender2070 | why disturb the environment? | Mar 10 06:53 |
Ender2070 | laying down cables | Mar 10 06:53 |
cubezzz | well cables give you a better signal | Mar 10 06:53 |
cubezzz | less interference | Mar 10 06:53 |
Ender2070 | that is perfectly true | Mar 10 06:53 |
Ender2070 | if everyone was on wireless though it would improve quite fast | Mar 10 06:53 |
cubezzz | there's a ton of EM flying around these days | Mar 10 06:53 |
Ender2070 | not to mention the dangers of EM radiation too | Mar 10 06:54 |
cubezzz | UHF, VHF, microwaves | Mar 10 06:54 |
Ender2070 | but i think technology will remove the need for government, very soon | Mar 10 06:54 |
Ender2070 | not that we'll get that | Mar 10 06:54 |
cubezzz | well firemen, police, and all the muncipal stuff... | Mar 10 06:55 |

DaemonFC | enough re-inventing the wheel goes on in FOSS as-is | Mar 10 10:18 |
DaemonFC | too proud to reuse existing code that already works fine, so they spend months or years doing a complete rewrite for themselves or something | Mar 10 10:19 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, Microsoft would really be in trouble if instead of coming up with 10 different desktop environments, EVERYONE worked on KDE, and this kind of thing was the norm | Mar 10 10:20 |
DaemonFC | it kind of limits the desktop when efforts are duplicated like this | Mar 10 10:21 |
oiaohm | DaemonFC: sometimes the duplication of effort has been good. | Mar 10 10:22 |
oiaohm | Lot of ideas that in theory looked to work fine when built turned out to be stupid. | Mar 10 10:22 |
DaemonFC | KDE could have been years ahead and there would be no Mono if the FSF hadn't started GNOME | Mar 10 10:22 |
oiaohm | Like the wm that allways full sized the main window. | Mar 10 10:23 |
oiaohm | And had no windows as such. | Mar 10 10:23 |
DaemonFC | now GNOME wants to revolt, overthrow the FSF, and go reimplement Microsoft stuff in their desktop | Mar 10 10:23 |
oiaohm | Really turned out to harm usage. | Mar 10 10:23 |
DaemonFC | oiaohm, You're telling me that this coup is turning out for the better? | Mar 10 10:24 |
oiaohm | There is a split in the Gnome ranks themselves. | Mar 10 10:24 |
oiaohm | Results of the Gnome implementing Mono stuff has caused some of the back end developers of gnome to work hand and hand with the KDE ones. | Mar 10 10:24 |
oiaohm | So not all bad has come from it DaemonFC | Mar 10 10:25 |

oiaohm | Someone still has to make the abstraction layers | Mar 10 10:32 |

*Ender2070 hits Diablo-D3 with a C++/Qt framework book | Mar 10 10:33 | |

Diablo-D3 | c#/.net was cargo culted from java | Mar 10 10:35 |

Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: except you shouldnt wrap things | Mar 10 10:36 |
Diablo-D3 | thats a .net thing, to wrap shit | Mar 10 10:36 |
oiaohm | Ie .net coders don't normally see what the interface layers to the Os are really doing. | Mar 10 10:36 |
Diablo-D3 | java coders tend to have pure java impls for things that arent system | Mar 10 10:36 |
Diablo-D3 | thats the big difference between c# and java | Mar 10 10:36 |
Diablo-D3 | c# coders steal, java coders do it themselves right the first time. | Mar 10 10:36 |

schestowitz | Guide to Microsoft Police Forensic Services | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | The "Microsoft Online Services Global Criminal Compliance Handbook (U.S. Domestic Version)" (also can be found here, here, and here) outlines exactly what Microsoft will do upon police request. Here's a good summary of what's in it: | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | The Global Criminal Compliance Handbook is a quasi-comprehensive explanatory document meant for law enforcement officials seeking access to Microsoft's stored user information. It also provides sample language for subpoenas and diagrams on how to understand server logs. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | I call it "quasi-comprehensive" because, at a mere 22 pages, it doesn't explore the nitty-gritty of Microsoft's systems; it's more like a data-hunting guide for dummies. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | When it was first leaked, Microsoft tried to scrub it from the Internet. But they quickly realized that it was futile and relented. | Mar 10 12:34 |

schestowitz | Posted by: Markus at March 9, 2010 7:56 AM | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | Is it me (and it might be ;) but the document reads like a "how to find your suspect guilty" document. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | That is it is unbalanced in a way that would be unacceptable in an "expert witness" in court. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | When I first read it I was not surprised MS wanted to surpress it... | Mar 10 12:34 |

schestowitz | ah yes, "Expert witness" who is that exactly again? | Mar 10 12:34 |

schestowitz | There is no standard, no process, no clear line of responsibility. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | I was personally involved in a MS HR adventure that led to my own release(really a long ago and silly story) from MS. The end all of it is the electronic information is gathered to match whatever the gatherer is looking for and very little to no information is needed to take action. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | Posted by: Adam at March 9, 2010 9:22 AM | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | @ Adam, | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | An "expert witness" is in theory (in the UK) one who is alowed to give "opinion" which is technicaly hearsay and would not normally be alowed in a criminal case (civil/tort law is unto it's self these days). | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | In return they are supposed to "represent the court" (not either side) and bring impartial clarity to the court. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | However "he who pays the piper" etc., etc. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | I gather in the US the current little legal earner is electronic discovery, which whilst enriching the legal fraternity (especialy the judges) usually achives little of consiquence relating to the actual case. But can bankrupt one side or the other hence it's used as a "Goliath attack". | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | Posted by: Clive Robinson at March 9, 2010 10:07 AM | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | @Adam "There is no standard, no process, no clear line of responsibility" | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | Well sure. We're still making it up as we go along and each company starts over again when it first comes up. Add to that that the law is inherently messy, uses natural language, and defines variables like "reasonable person" as a standard. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | @Clive "technicaly hearsay" | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | Oh. I thought at first you said 'technical hearsay'. Kinda like the sound of that. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | While MS has relented and cryptome.org was restored by thier ISP from MS takedown order. Paypal has frozen thier account with what ever money they have on the pipe. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | Posted by: BF Skinner at March 9, 2010 10:47 AM | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | Really, is anyone surprised by the data that they can gather? Heck, the users give the data to them, and all of it is data that would be gathered by any provider of similar services. I'm sure Google keeps the same sort of data, and Apple, and Sony (with regards to consoles) and etc. | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | If a law enforcement agency has the appropriate subpoena or warrant, then MS has a choice to either "provide a way for law enforcement to collect it, in such a way that protects every other user of the service from undue scrutiny or "let law enforcement walk in, take the servers, and screw everyone" | Mar 10 12:34 |
schestowitz | And if you think that law enforcement agents won't do the latter if you refuse to give them the former, then I've got a bridge to sell you. Great view of Brooklyn. | Mar 10 12:34 |
