schestowitz@schestowitz i'm surprised that instead of "innovating" an "original" product without building on other ideas, microsoft would "steal" apple's "intellectual property" by making a phone that plays mp3's - don't they know "piracy" doesn't pay? :PMay 04 01:53

DaemonFC11 PM anyway :PMay 04 04:16
cubezzzI saw a guy on an electric bike todayMay 04 04:18
cubezzzI bet they are getting more commonMay 04 04:18
DaemonFCprobablyMay 04 04:20
DaemonFCthey're usually sufficient for running around townMay 04 04:20
DaemonFCas long as you do't need to bring a (heavy/odd shaped/lots of) stuff with youMay 04 04:21
DaemonFC:)May 04 04:21
DaemonFC*anyMay 04 04:21
cubezzza full load of groceries might be trickyMay 04 04:22
DaemonFCbut it can reduce your dependence on your carMay 04 04:22
cubezzzor you could just make more trips with lessMay 04 04:22
DaemonFCat least half my running around is doable on the bikeMay 04 04:22
DaemonFCeven now that my car works, I will continue to use the bike for running errandsMay 04 04:22
DaemonFCsaves a lot of gasMay 04 04:22
cubezzzgas is a significant expenseMay 04 04:23
cubezzzit's around a dollar per litre here :)May 04 04:23
DaemonFC$2.88 a gallonMay 04 04:23
cubezzz$3.78 a gallon :-/May 04 04:24
cubezzzactually your gas is relatively cheapMay 04 04:24
DaemonFCyikesMay 04 04:24
cubezzzeven higher in Europe DaemonFCMay 04 04:24
DaemonFCyeah, I was pissed when it got over $3 a gallonMay 04 04:24
DaemonFClivid actuallyMay 04 04:24
DaemonFCdoesn't surprise meMay 04 04:25
DaemonFCprobably all that carbon tax bullshitMay 04 04:25
cubezzzthe problem with the bike is people stealing themMay 04 04:25
cubezzzlike if you go to the mall...May 04 04:25
cubezzzbut that is probably safe enoughMay 04 04:26
DaemonFCwhen I go to Walmart, I park it inside the store, right next to where the greeter sitsMay 04 04:26
cubezzzah :)May 04 04:26
DaemonFCthrow the batteries in my shopping cartMay 04 04:26
DaemonFClolMay 04 04:26
cubezzzplus you could remove both wheels :)May 04 04:27
cubezzzbut that would be a painMay 04 04:27
DaemonFCif they steal it, they have a big heavy bike that they need $260 worth of batteries forMay 04 04:27
DaemonFCway to go, huh? :)May 04 04:27
DaemonFC1. They'd need one battery to make it work at all. ($130) 2. They'd have a used bike that's $400 new WITH a battery which is now used and not with battery.May 04 04:29
DaemonFCIf they wanted to sell it as a used bike, they'd get $200, after buying $130 battery and net about $70May 04 04:29
DaemonFCit's not even worth stealing at that pointMay 04 04:29
cubezzzpeople do steal bikes thoughMay 04 04:30
DaemonFCthere's easier ways to make more money illegally, fasterMay 04 04:30
DaemonFCyes, could be some idiot not thinking out what he is doingMay 04 04:30
DaemonFCI knowMay 04 04:30
cubezzzpeople break into computer stores a lotMay 04 04:31
DaemonFCan entry-level model electric bike without the batteries is not the best heist you could makeMay 04 04:31
DaemonFCis what I'm sayingMay 04 04:31
cubezzzand government offices, colleges...May 04 04:31

Ender2070DaemonFC - you paid money to see highlander 2 ?May 04 07:49
DaemonFCkeeps my $15 "discount" on internet and gives me several local channels May 04 07:50

DaemonFCabortions are more profitableMay 04 07:55
DaemonFCplanned parenthood spends money if they just pass out contracetivesMay 04 07:55
cubezzzto me abortion is a last resortMay 04 07:55
DaemonFCbut if they can charge hundred of dollars per abortion, it becomes the front line option May 04 07:55
MinceRabortions cost money, tooMay 04 07:55
Ender2070they cost the victim money instead thoughMay 04 07:56
DaemonFCMinceR, That's the thing, they don't mention the free contraceptivesMay 04 07:56

oiaohmOver time the price of those mount options has reduced in line with Block device management improvements pawel_123May 04 10:38

cubezzzand there's a lot of me in there :)May 04 10:39
schestowitzOver 100MB in my logs :-)May 04 10:39
oiaohmAlso be aware that the developer of that filesystem changed the pattern of mount options to hide the fact of the regression as well before he was forced to change to back for stablity.  pawel_123May 04 10:39
cubezzzok, what's the email address?May 04 10:40
pawel_123oiaohm: it's something messed up :) devs chose safer mount options for default thus benchmark results were lowerMay 04 10:40
schestowitzr at schestowitz comMay 04 10:40
schestowitzthanks!May 04 10:40
pawel_123oiaohm: if you test kernels they should use exactly the same optionsMay 04 10:40
oiaohmDeveloper first chose unsafe ones. Due to the speed effects.May 04 10:41
oiaohmSo hiding regression pawel_123May 04 10:41
oiaohmIt aways comes back and bites at some point.May 04 10:41
pawel_123oiaohm: how safer otpions which lowered benchmar results hid regressions?May 04 10:41
cubezzzsending....May 04 10:41
oiaohmNo pawel_123 the unsafe options had never been there in ext2 and I think ext3 by default.  Developer due to speed hit turned them off on ext4 so giving speed gainMay 04 10:42
oiaohmSo making ext4 unsafe.  pawel_123May 04 10:43
cubezzztwo days was 200K :)May 04 10:43
oiaohmAt some point that has to be corrected.  pawel_123May 04 10:43
pawel_123oiaohm: ok :)May 04 10:43
cubezzzso we blabber about 100K per dayMay 04 10:43
oiaohmThere was a regression in those options.  pawel_123May 04 10:43
oiaohmThe developer hid.  The issue.  So when phoronix said it was a regression it was.  Worst kind developer hidden regression.May 04 10:44
cubezzzvim is awesome but I can't remember all the commandsMay 04 10:44
oiaohmBenchmarking of kernel with default options should always basically stay thing same or get faster unless something was hidden or done wrong.  pawel_123May 04 10:45
MinceRyou don't have to remember all the commandsMay 04 10:45
pawel_123oiaohm: you're missing the point. Phoronix benchmarked kernel with different options used, so this is not meaningfull. I bet they didn't even know defaults changedMay 04 10:45
pawel_123oiaohm: not trueMay 04 10:45
oiaohmThey did pawel_123.  May 04 10:45
oiaohmWhat reason would you have for a speed hit other than fixing a error.  pawel_123May 04 10:46
pawel_123oiaohm: Ext4 is safer then ntfs, but if you want it to be faster you've got to use different mount optionsMay 04 10:46
oiaohmNow yes pawel_123May 04 10:46
pawel_123oiaohm: to make it better for specified marketMay 04 10:46
oiaohmEarly Ext4 with wrong options was faster and less safe than ntfsMay 04 10:47
cubezzzbtw does anyone know the name of the mouse driver in 2.4?May 04 10:47
pawel_123oiaohm: where data must be flushed imediatly to disk, for desktop you rather do not need thisMay 04 10:47
pawel_123oiaohm: possiblyMay 04 10:47
oiaohmBut unsafe path should not be default ever.May 04 10:47
oiaohmPerson should have to change for unsafe.May 04 10:47
cubezzzok, I'll just read the docs :)May 04 10:48
oiaohmNote the Ext4 current options do not force imediat flush to disk.  But they do reduce file nuking.  Ie if a file was just part written turning it into a zero size file.  pawel_123May 04 10:49
schestowitzcubezzz: thanks!May 04 10:49
cubezzznpMay 04 10:49
pawel_123oiaohm: "But unsafe path should not be default ever." that's for sure :)May 04 10:50
oiaohmFile nuking provides means of skipping over journalling and other tracking of what you are doing in the filesystem.  Ie faster. pawel_123May 04 10:50
oiaohmSo ext4 was benchmarking way faster than it ever should have.May 04 10:50
cubezzzI think I'll stick with ext2 and ext3 :)May 04 10:50
cubezzztried and trueMay 04 10:51
oiaohmOn defaults.  And of course when the problems came home to roust the defaults had to be changed back to like ext3May 04 10:51
oiaohmAnd then the fact that journalling on ext4 was running like a snail came to light.  pawel_123May 04 10:51
oiaohmIe slower than ext3 on the same size filesystem.May 04 10:52
pawel_123oiaohm: why it's that?May 04 10:52
oiaohmThe code had not be fully redone to cope with ext4 supporting larger filesystems.May 04 10:53
oiaohmInstead just hacked up so it would work.  pawel_123May 04 10:53
oiaohmIe performance work was badly lacking.May 04 10:53
oiaohmYes the developer had hid where he had not been working and that it was in a bad state by changing defaults.May 04 10:53
oiaohmLot of Linux developers were up in arms at the change in defaults at the time as well.May 04 10:54
oiaohmIe change to the unsafe.May 04 10:54
oiaohmSo the case you have for fud from phoronix over filesystems is badly wrong pawel_123May 04 10:55
oiaohmOk some wine developers would say the phoronix over sells open source video card drivers.May 04 10:55
oiaohmOk most of the wine developers says phoronix over sells open source video card drivers.May 04 10:56
oiaohmNote the ext4 defaults change to unstable only go threw due to ext 4 being classed as unstable when they were changed.  Ie the regression was not changing them back before production status.May 04 10:58
oiaohmAnd then finding out that there were more regressions.May 04 10:59

pawel_123oiaohm: ok, I've got your point :)May 04 11:12
oiaohmDevelopers need watch dogs just as much as anyone else.  pawel_123 benchmarking is one of those watch dogs.May 04 11:12
*MinceR hates dogsMay 04 11:13
oiaohmI quite like them.  Thinking I work with quite a few.  MinceR  May 04 11:14
pawel_123oiaohm: if some watch dogs are meaningull it's another case May 04 11:15
oiaohmThe simplest thing is to blame a benchmark for finding a issue.  pawel_123 The question should always be why was the issue thier in the first place.May 04 11:16
pawel_123oiaohm: the question is if there is an issueMay 04 11:18
pawel_123you've got only one mode for ntfsMay 04 11:18
pawel_123and at least three for ext4May 04 11:18
pawel_123then how would you know which is a correct one for desktop?May 04 11:19
pawel_123which is an equivalent of ntfs mode etc?May 04 11:19
oiaohmntfs has 12 modes infact.  pawel_123May 04 11:19
oiaohmOnly 1 most people know.May 04 11:19
oiaohmjournalling on is ntfs.May 04 11:20
oiaohmdefault.May 04 11:20
oiaohmIt is possiable to run ntfs without journalling and without caching and with out permissions.May 04 11:20
pawel_123oiaohm: only this one which is known should be taken into account in this caseMay 04 11:20

oiaohmIe the one you know is the maker default.  pawel_123May 04 11:21
oiaohmSo the default of the Linux kernel should match up.  Ie safe in most cases.May 04 11:22
pawel_123oiaohm: yepMay 04 11:22
oiaohmMain reason to turn permissions and cache and journalling is running windows doing real time work.  May 04 11:22
oiaohmCatch was ext4 was not safe in most cases before the correction to defaults that caused a speed cost. pawel_123May 04 11:23
pawel_123oiaohm: then maybe that's why there were no so safe options as defaults for ext4 before?May 04 11:23
oiaohmDeveloper pushed it threw claiming his work would remove the need for the safe options.  pawel_123May 04 11:24
oiaohmIe was not the case.May 04 11:24
oiaohmSo the developer did not work on fixing up the long term known safe methods.  So leading to the massive speed hit.May 04 11:24
pawel_123oiaohm: no safe ext 4 options maybe matched default ntfs optionsMay 04 11:24
oiaohmThere are.  pawel_123May 04 11:24
pawel_123oiaohm: so those options are enough for desktopsMay 04 11:25
oiaohmext4 with journalling enabled does line up quite well to ntfs in stablity.May 04 11:25
oiaohmBut of course you pay speed for it.May 04 11:25
pawel_123oiaohm: and phoronix benchamarking unsafe options against safe ones wasn't fair claiming there's some regressionMay 04 11:25
pawel_123it's an expected behaviourMay 04 11:26
oiaohmCatch is that the defaults were wrong.  And a person may have been depending on that performance it was a regression.May 04 11:26
oiaohmWine makes functions work that never did before applications die those applications are classed as regressions in support.May 04 11:28
oiaohmYes making functions work can make applications use other functions that don't work that when the other functions did not work they would never have touched.May 04 11:28
oiaohmYes the evil side of regressions.  May 04 11:28
oiaohmJust because its expected behaviour does not mean its not a regression.May 04 11:29
oiaohmIf I could claim that I could delete about 80 percent of wine regression reports.  pawel_123May 04 11:29
pawel_123oiaohm: why defaults were wrong while probably exactly the same defaults are still in ntfs?May 04 11:30
oiaohmNo ext4 defaults that were wrong were way worse than ntfs defaults.May 04 11:30
pawel_123oiaohm: then it's a different thingMay 04 11:31
oiaohmIe no journal no safe guards.  Basically pray that power does not drop out.  May 04 11:31
oiaohmOr kernel lock up for some reason.May 04 11:31
oiaohmExt4 was running down right dangerous until the defualts were corrected.  pawel_123May 04 11:31
pawel_123okMay 04 11:32
oiaohmBasically is a screw up of screwup.May 04 11:32
oiaohmNever should happen.  Nicest thing phoronix could say was that it was a regression and leave it at that.May 04 11:33
oiaohmTo say the truth the developer has gone past safe limits and provided way more performance than what ever should have been there.May 04 11:33

Chips_B_MalroyHi all, I was going post this comment then decided to post it here in irc instead:May 04 18:40
Chips_B_MalroyMost of us do disdain software patents.  They only help the monopolies.  They do not promote science or innovation.  But there is a worse form of software patents, its software patents on codecs.  This should never have been allowed in any reasonable world.  Software patents on multimedia codecs are basically a patent on sight and sound, two inalienable senses of the human experience.  So it is a tax and a form of cMay 04 18:41
Chips_B_MalroyBeyond that the monopolies (MS and Apple) want to use software patents as a way to block free operating systems ,to control the web, and to profit by taxing those who have to use these multimedia video and sound software patents.May 04 18:41
Chips_B_MalroyMultimedia software patents are completely against the idea of standards, or even standards that can be freely used on the web.  We must try to educate those in power to reject software patents on video and audio codecs and to get free standards on these codecs for a free web.  Not a web that will be controlled and taxed further by unnecessary Microsoft and Apple lockin. May 04 18:41
Chips_B_MalroyAs far as IBM and Google with their support of software patents.  While we would be better off without the patents, in the meantime, Google has to play the patent game in some countries, as that is the law of the land in the USA.  To be able to sue those who come against you, is a weapon that we should not say to Google;  "do not sue MS or Apple."  In fact, I am all for Google to go after both companies, often in a May 04 18:42
*WireWulf-away is now known as WireWulfMay 04 18:43
Chips_B_MalroyIt is not enough to just have Theora or the new free Google codec.  All of these video and audio software codecs should be free if used on the web, as the web should be free.  Free standards for a free web, should be the call.May 04 18:47

Chips_B_MalroyCPM?  DRDOS came about as a lawsuit against MS and IBM by the maker of CPM.  He showed the copyright screen in a couple of msdos keystokes of CPM. and won the court case.  MS bargained for a gag order of how much to pay.  And they won the right to make a clone of MSDOS also, called DRDOS in the case.May 04 21:09

schestowitz[22:31] <Chips_B_Malroy> Expect Apple to now move into controlling the gov as MS has done.  Lobbying.  As Apple is about to surpass MS in overall profitsMay 04 22:34

MinceRChips_B_Malroy: i see. i didn't know the A4 was ARMMay 04 22:36
Chips_B_Malroyyes, so Tablets, the war between ARM and Intel is basically overMay 04 22:36

schestowitzIntel wooed them to use crap CPUsMay 04 22:37
schestowitzAtomic self destructionMay 04 22:37
Chips_B_MalroyApple wanted Ipad to be ARM based on their stripped down cell phone OS X so as not to canabalise its Macbook line.  May 04 22:38
Chips_B_MalroyCellphones are basically all ARMMay 04 22:38

schestowitzLinux is up in ARMSMay 04 22:39
Chips_B_MalroyThe Ipad was a way for Apple to get into the low end market, but charge middle range prices.May 04 22:39
Chips_B_MalroyThe price competes with Wintel laptops at $500May 04 22:40
Chips_B_MalroyJobs must be figuring that they will sell more Ipads to windows users in that price range than mac users who would have bought a macbook proMay 04 22:41
MinceRafaict nokia is still using ARM cpusMay 04 22:41

-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[satipera] Magnetic Fields "69 love songs" not crap like it sounds. More of an odyssey than a trip down the aisle. Pure genius.May 04 22:42
Chips_B_MalroyThe Ipad has some appeal to novice windows users, who don't know better.  First there is a lot of pain in Windowsland with malware.  Moving to Linux or Ipad (apple ARM) basically solves the problem.  A lot of the computer unsavvy, just go to a store here and buy something.  They only know Windows and Apple.May 04 22:44
Chips_B_MalroySo this $500 limited Ipad, still appeals to many users who get infected on windows and want secureMay 04 22:45
Chips_B_Malroyand they can just go to the store and buy it, no thinking about downloading and installing a GNU/Linux distro cd, that would work on the old infected windows machine, a lot better too.  And Free.May 04 22:46
Chips_B_MalroyThat is the market the Ipad mainly appeals tooMay 04 22:47

Chips_B_MalroyApple is scared.  Ipad with ARM sells well.  But how about when ChromeOS comes out on cheap ARM laptops and Tablets?  $100 and up.  Will Ipad be able to compete with these, as the OS will have basic things, like copy and paste.  Removable batteries?May 04 22:56
Chips_B_MalroyI think notMay 04 22:57
