02:47 DaemonFC; I wonder how many of Stallman's posts would trigger the AutoMod on LateStageCapitalism.
02:47 DaemonFC; Endemic covid
02:47 DaemonFC; 1 February 2022
02:47 DaemonFC; *Covid becoming endemic doesnt mean it will be mild or that there wont be new variants.* It might become like the Polio virus, which most patients didn't even notice, except for the small fraction that it crippled.
02:47 DaemonFC; Thus, "endemic" does not imply "we don't need precautions against its spread." Not if we are wise, that is.
02:48 DaemonFC; AutoMod: "Your post has been removed because it included the ableist term "crippled". If you take any action to sidestep this filter, your account will be banned.
02:48 DaemonFC; :)
02:49 DaemonFC; Stallman is still trying to spread panic about COVID.
02:50 DaemonFC; Which he admits that most people don't even notice, except the weak.
02:50 DaemonFC; People who are already very sick, or very old.
02:50 DaemonFC; And they already get everything else and it can kill them.
02:50 DaemonFC; We don't shut down because of the 100+ forms of Pneumonia bacteria and viruses that circulate.
02:51 DaemonFC; Few people stop having sex even though HIV is out there, and is hardly the most likely thing to catch.
02:51 DaemonFC; The world doesn't stop for the million reasons out there you can get sick or die, so why do it over one more that's really kind of a wimp when you compare it to the rest?
02:52 DaemonFC; One the most ridiculous things that comes up in Google on your phone if you type COVID is "Do I have to stop having sex because of COVID?".
02:52 DaemonFC; Grindr now lets people say whether they've been vaccinated for COVID.
02:53 DaemonFC; That's nice. If Gonorrhea, Herpes, HSV, HPV, Chlamydia, HIV, Hepatitis A, B, C, and D, Syphilis, and various close contact parasites didn't stop them, why would COVID?
02:54 DaemonFC; That's like saying "Do I have to stop driving my car because a bridge in Pennsylvania collapsed?".
02:54 DaemonFC; Bridges collapse sometimes.
02:54 DaemonFC; Nobody stops driving their car because of it.
02:55 DaemonFC; The odds of being on one when it goes are small, and nobody died in this one.
02:55 DaemonFC; But it makes for a lot of scary photos.
02:55 MinceR; lol @ automod
02:56 MinceR; > why do it over one more that's really kind of a wimp
02:56 MinceR; probably because it's so good at spreading
02:57 DaemonFC; So is Hepatitis B, and there's a real and safe vaccine for that, and it's actually a big threat.
02:58 DaemonFC; But under 40% of the adult population of the US is vaccinated.
02:58 DaemonFC; The CDC spent 43 years not putting it on the recommended list of adult vaccines, until they did.
02:58 MinceR; it's significantly easier to avoid contact with infectious blood or body fluids containing blood than with particles that spread in the air
02:59 DaemonFC; And as a result, hundreds of thousands of people in the US are needlessly infected with it.
02:59 DaemonFC; And about 250,000 people who could still be here today died.
02:59 MinceR; it's not even the same league
02:59 DaemonFC; It's worse.
03:00 MinceR; [citation needed]
03:00 DaemonFC; In many cases, it becomes chronic and you never clear it and you have to go on AIDS medicine.
03:00 DaemonFC; And it causes liver cancer.
03:00 MinceR; what's the R_0 for Hepatitis B?
03:00 DaemonFC; Also, many people come into contact with semen and vaginal fluids and other stuff at some point.
03:00 DaemonFC; To an unvaccinated person?
03:01 DaemonFC; Well, it's said to be 100 times as infectious as HIV, according to the Hepatitis B Foundation.
03:01 DaemonFC; But hardly anyone who is vaccinated properly gets it.
03:01 DaemonFC; And those who do almost never get a symptomatic or chronic case of it.
03:02 DaemonFC; 100 times more infectious than HIV? Well, seems like if an infected man goes around having unprotected sex with people, damned near everyone who isn't vaccinated is in extreme danger.
03:02 DaemonFC; Not to mention restaurant outbreaks and healthcare workers.
03:05 DaemonFC; MinceR, My guess is that with about 40% of the country vaccinated, the R0 of Hepatitis B seems to be just above the replacement rate when you consider chronic and symptomatic cases, so that would be 1.2 out of that segment.
03:05 DaemonFC; However, that's misleading.
03:05 DaemonFC; Because only about 6-10% of cases become chronic and that's enough to leave over a million Americans with chronic Hepatitis B.
03:06 DaemonFC; The other 90%-ish who become infected usually clear it within a year or two on their own.
03:06 DaemonFC; So it's kind of hard to say exactly.

03:07 TR Bot; Modelling the epidemiology of hepatitis B in New Zealand - PubMed
03:08 DaemonFC; Hepatitis B is a vaccine preventable disease caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV) that can induce potentially fatal liver damage. It has the second highest mortality rate of all vaccine preventable diseases in New Zealand. Vaccination against HBV was introduced in New Zealand in 1988, and the country is now categorised with overall low endemicity but with areas of both high and medium endemic levels. We present an SECIR compartmental
03:08 DaemonFC; mathematical model, with the population divided into age classes, for the transmission of HBV using local data on incidence of infection and vaccination coverage. We estimate the basic reproduction number, R(0), to be 1.53, and show that the vaccination campaign has substantially reduced this below one. However, a large number of carriers remain in the population acting as a source of infection.
03:08 DaemonFC; MinceR, So if 100% of the population is unvaccinated, then every person who gets HBV will cause 1.53 new cases.
03:09 DaemonFC; That's actually less than I thought. Numbers don't seem to agree with HBV Foundation's figure of 100 times as infectious as HIV.
03:09 DaemonFC; They estimate that the R0 of HIV is 2-5.
03:10 DaemonFC; At the beginning of the HIV crisis, it was closer to 5.
03:11 DaemonFC; So that must mean nobody aware of it, just people doing their thing and no drugs for it.
03:12 DaemonFC; Well, it can be extremely infectious if it goes on unchecked.
03:13 DaemonFC; Eventually there's so much of the virus in your blood and body fluids that the odds of passing it along are extreme.
03:13 DaemonFC; Of course, YOU won't live very long at that rate, most likely.
03:13 DaemonFC; In the 1980s, an HIV diagnoses was usually followed by a funeral in under 5 years.

03:32 DaemonFC; schestowitz, ^
03:32 DaemonFC; Then he uses it at an excuse for legitimizing political totalitarianism that we'll never get rid of again.
03:33 DaemonFC; More than 99% of the people who get this will survive it.
03:33 DaemonFC; The news is making it sound like half of all people who get it are in the hospital dying.
03:33 immibis; DaemonFC: It's so weird how people fixate on the category of coronaviruses. People paid attention to diseases, and to viruses, before SARS.
03:34 DaemonFC; Influenza was considered much more of a threat than any Coronavirus prior to the early 2000s.
03:34 immibis; it's almost like other coronaviruses aren't SARS
03:34 immibis; influenza was considered more of a threat than retroviruses prior to HIV
03:35 DaemonFC; Yes, human retroviruses really didn't do a hell of a lot until HIV.
03:35 immibis; nor did coronaviruses until SARS
03:35 DaemonFC; Which sort of threw early research off because nobody thought to look for a retrovirus.
03:35 immibis; you know, it would be really easy to just near-eradicate COVID
03:35 immibis; why don't we do that
03:35 immibis; it sounds like a good idea
03:36 DaemonFC; It would be far easier to get rid of HIV.
03:36 DaemonFC; The major obstacle to getting rid of HIV is patent licenses on the medication.
03:36 DaemonFC; schestowitz, ^T
03:36 immibis; it would! except all the same tactics that are now being used to ensure COVID spread were also used a few decades ago to ensure HIV spread.
03:36 immibis; for the same reasons, too
03:37 DaemonFC; They want it to become endemic so they can sell some new product all the time.
03:37 MinceR; got to get Papa Nurgle his due, don't you know
03:37 immibis; that also applies to COVID. Did you know ivermectin makes pharma companies richer than vaccines?
03:37 DaemonFC; They're hoping it gets nasty.
03:37 DaemonFC; Lots of people dying is disaster porn that drives up the fear that sells the crummy vaccines.
03:38 immibis; DaemonFC: are you vaccinated for COVID?
03:38 DaemonFC; Yes, because there was little/no data on them at the time.
03:38 DaemonFC; Now everyone I know who is vaccinated and boosted is getting COVID, and some end up in the hospital.
03:38 immibis; data shows they end up in the hospital at lower rates
03:39 immibis; and die at drastically lower rates
03:39 DaemonFC; For the time being.
03:39 DaemonFC; THe vaccine wears off quickly.
03:39 immibis; Actually no, the improvements in hospitalization and death rates do not appear to wear off
03:39 DaemonFC; We'll see where things stand next winter and how many more doses they want people to take.
03:40 immibis; the concern about wearing-off is about preventing further transmission
03:40 AdmFubar; the body's immune system is good for about 6 months at making antibodies.. ymmv..
03:41 immibis; I don't see why taking repeated doses of a vaccine is a significant problem. The best you can argue is that it's a waste of money, but... so are lots of things, especially when incomplete data is involved.
03:41 immibis; it costs the government what, $10 per dose? they spend more per person on street lighting
03:41 DaemonFC; It's that each dose gets worse.
03:41 immibis; almost like repeated virus spread enables mutation.
03:41 DaemonFC; By dose three, it really messed me up for about a month and I started to get chest pains and a burning sensation in my arm.
03:42 DaemonFC; I was forgetting common words.
03:42 immibis; I read that there is an omicron-specific vaccine in the works, and also a nasal vaccine which primes the separate part of your immune system that covers your nose.
03:42 DaemonFC; People noticed I was pretty far off from normal, and then it went away.
03:42 DaemonFC; How many more doses can I take before the side effects are really nasty or fatal?
03:42 AdmFubar; that is all??? a month??? that is nothing...
03:43 DaemonFC; schestowitz pointed out that eventually you'll just take pills *if* you even get it at all.
03:43 DaemonFC; No need to get sick every 6 months from another vaccine dose.
03:43 AdmFubar; tyr itching for 6 months with any vaccine.. itching so bad that no amount of antihistamines helps..
03:44 DaemonFC; I've never responded to a vaccine like that.
03:44 AdmFubar; I have....
03:44 DaemonFC; The worst normal vaccine side effects I've had was to Prevnar 13.
03:44 DaemonFC; My arm got really sore for about a day.
03:44 *GNUmoon2 (~GNUmoon@d3u7abs8yy2fu.irc) has joined #techrights
03:44 AdmFubar; aaawww
03:44 DaemonFC; I avoided taking Ibuprofen or anything because I didn't want to counter any of the vaccine effectiveness.
03:45 DaemonFC; I'm telling you, I just don't normally have any notable side effects to vaccines.
03:45 immibis; DaemonFC: well, that is a good reason to avoid future vaccines, because that reaction is not normal. Since that reaction is not normal it's not a reason to tell other people not to get vaccinated.
03:45 DaemonFC; Prevnar was unusual in that it made my arm sore for about a day.
03:45 immibis; MY reactions got better (less severe) each time!
03:45 DaemonFC; But COVID vaccines get really nasty.
03:45 AdmFubar; I had a sore arm with last covid booster and the flu shot......
03:45 DaemonFC; Flu shots don't have any side effects in me.
03:45 AdmFubar; this all started after the transplant
03:46 immibis; sore arms are totally normal with any vaccine... you poke a needle in the arm, it gets sore, what do you expect
03:46 DaemonFC; I've had one every year since I turned 18 and started making my own medical decisions.
03:46 DaemonFC; A nurse from Ball Memorial Hospital came to work and they asked if I wanted a flu shot.
03:47 DaemonFC; The company paid because it means less sick days, and therefore, fewer disruptions to their production cycle.
03:47 DaemonFC; My mom is a nurse and thinks the flu shots don't work at all.
03:47 immibis; sounds like medical tyranny. some people need that extra money to live
03:47 immibis; /s
03:48 DaemonFC; She also thinks that getting them every year means whatever effectiveness they would have had is gone.
03:48 DaemonFC; That's totally not what the data shows.
03:48 DaemonFC; We have good data on the flu shots.
03:48 DaemonFC; The mixed effectiveness is due to mismatch of the vaccine to what actually ends up circulating.
03:48 DaemonFC; But there is absolutely no evidence of diminishing effect if you get it many years in a row.
03:49 DaemonFC; The whole notion of a less nasty case of the flu is lost on her.
03:49 DaemonFC; The fact that people get the vaccine and then TEST POSITIVE if enough to declare it doesn't work.
03:49 DaemonFC; *is
03:50 immibis; sounds like something YOU would say about COVID
03:50 DaemonFC; Lots of people are dying of COVID anyway.
03:50 DaemonFC; We were hitting over 3,500 a day there for a while in the US last month.
03:51 DaemonFC; There's room for improvement with the flu shot.
03:51 DaemonFC; If everyone took it, about half the annual deaths we do have would be avoidable on an average year.

03:51 immibis; maybe we should stop the COVID pandemic and then very few people will die
03:52 DaemonFC; Well, those anti-COVID pills are likely to work better than the vaccine.
03:52 DaemonFC; For a lot of reasons.
03:52 immibis; will they stop the pandemic?
03:52 DaemonFC; Including the fact that pills don't make for as good of a conspiracy theory as a vaccine.
03:52 immibis; lol
03:52 DaemonFC; So Republicans will be a lot more likely to take them.
03:53 immibis; You know, the real conspiracy is that all the deaths are being blamed on vaccines
03:53 DaemonFC; Some vaccines come in pill form, but not many.
03:53 DaemonFC; If they could switch the vaccine to a pill form and not call it a vaccine, it would be interesting to see how the anti-vax movement responded to that.
03:54 immibis; as seen in this mischord screenshot of a deddit post: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/784187861850652742/937943099156615168/SmartSelect_20220201-062934_Chrome.jpg

03:54 immibis; (names of commercial chat services have to be poorly mangled here right?)
03:54 DaemonFC; There was a Yellow Fever vaccine in pill form.
03:54 DaemonFC; It was more effective than the shot! And they got rid of the pill from the US market.
03:54 DaemonFC; You have to get the shot now if you want the Yellow Fever vaccine before traveling.
03:54 DaemonFC; And the shot is only good for two years.
03:54 DaemonFC; The pill was good for 5.

03:55 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 28.98 k/sec., IPFS upstream 184.68 average k/sec., average swarm size 256.70
03:55 immibis; those of us not in US markets still have the shot, proving there isn't a better option yet
03:55 DaemonFC; I ordered a bunch more COVID tests.
03:55 immibis; what's the best way to make a website available on IPFS?
03:55 DaemonFC; So far this will make 23 tests?
03:55 DaemonFC; They're free. What the hell.
03:56 DaemonFC; This way we can just test Mandy once a week for the next 6 months or so.
03:56 immibis; in Germany you can get a free COVID test done at a testing station, but you can't buy the tests for free, of course
03:56 DaemonFC; That's about how long until the tests expire, according to the box.
03:57 DaemonFC; I don't want to hog them all. But I would like enough to test him weekly for quite a while.
03:57 MinceR; the EU offered gratis SARS-CoV-2 tests to hungary. the government of hungary refused.
03:57 MinceR; or money to buy them, something like that
03:57 MinceR; can't have either, because it would make our statistics look worse
03:57 DaemonFC; MinceR, There's another way of saying don't get greedy that I heard the other day that I liked.
03:58 DaemonFC; Pigs get fat. Hogs get slaughtered.
03:58 MinceR; i thought "pig" and "hog" were synonyms
03:58 DaemonFC; If you make too much of an issue out of yourself, you get in trouble, basically.
03:59 DaemonFC; Like that guy who got thrown out of Golden Corral and arrested for Disorderly Conduct.
03:59 DaemonFC; He started by emptying out entire serving dishes of fish and when they asked him to leave, he caused a ruckus, even when they offered him more fish if he just shut up and left.
03:59 DaemonFC; What a terribly stupid thing to get arrested for.
04:00 DaemonFC; Not that there are many brilliant ones.
04:00 DaemonFC; But courts tend to be lenient at first, then if they see you more often, that starts going away.
04:00 DaemonFC; So why would you waste leniency of the court by having to explain causing a commotion over fish to a judge?
04:02 DaemonFC; MinceR, So long, and thanks for all the fish!

05:25 DaemonFC; I booked a new patient appointment with a doctor at Vista.
05:26 DaemonFC; I was extremely pissed off about that incident in 2019 with my last family doctor and haven't been back since.
05:26 DaemonFC; That was at Northwestern Medicine in Chicago.
05:26 DaemonFC; She's over in their clinic in the gay neighborhood.
05:27 DaemonFC; Mostly managing PrEP cases, which was how I ended up going there in the first place, a long time before I met Mandy.
05:29 DaemonFC; Not helping the case for going back there was the incident I mentioned in the other room and the fact that Chicago is such a shithole now.
05:31 DaemonFC; It was pretty okay in Boystown because everyone there is rich and the cops patrolled the area THEN.
05:31 DaemonFC; Now there's no cops and the criminals have completely overrun all but about four neighborhoods on the far north side of the city.
05:31 DaemonFC; They renamed Boystown to be more "inclusive". Someone had the idiotic idea of naming it "Northalsted".
05:32 DaemonFC; Everything in Chicago is getting renamed because the PC babies are everywhere.
05:33 DaemonFC; I've been racking up likes on Facebook by repeatedly saying "I refuse to call it that. It's Boystown." or "I refuse to call it that. It's the Sears Tower." or "I refuse to call it that. It's Lake Shore Drive. Just Lake Shore Drive.".
05:33 DaemonFC; Fuck politicians.
05:33 DaemonFC; They can pass whatever they want. They can't make it illegal for everyone to keep calling things by their real names.

11:22 TR Bot; Snowden Slams Ongoing Impunity for NSA's Domestic Spying
11:22 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Back to "partner". It's a loaded term in the US.
11:23 DaemonFC; It's a way that straight people who don't like gay people can use a word contemptuously.
11:23 DaemonFC; And I suppose I can see why people outside the US may not be familiar with that, in context, because no dictionary will likely mention the "through your teeth" usage of the term this way.
11:24 DaemonFC; "Your partner" or "your friend" are what the SJWs might call a homophobic microagression.
11:24 DaemonFC; So using the term this way lends itself to being interpreted as such.
11:26 DaemonFC; Like, "your relationship is invalid because I do not recognize that you are married.....therefore, your partner". Or "your friend".
11:26 DaemonFC; But never "your spouse".
11:26 DaemonFC; It lets miserable little people go on refusing to acknowledge the change in the law.
11:28 DaemonFC; Using "partner" in another context is dubious because of the way that anti-gay bigots are using the term. It's tainted.
11:30 DaemonFC; There's a book on using English correctly that had a chapter about words that are dangerously similar in sound to a naughty word or were racially charged and just became commonplace.
11:30 DaemonFC; The chapter was called "Being niggardly with the paddywagon.".
11:30 DaemonFC; Something like that.
11:31 DaemonFC; Anyway, they should add "partner" up there with that list of words that is going to raise an ear because "partner" is a dog whistle for anti-gay bigots.
11:32 DaemonFC; On the surface, there's actually nothing wrong or offensive about it, unless you already know and continue using it anyway.
11:34 DaemonFC; "Partner" is a dog whistle, while "niggardly" doesn't mean anything bad and just got tangled up with a bad word that came much later, but people should probably avoid using it in public because most people don't study a dictionary.
11:35 DaemonFC; When I told someone I owned a Maine Coon, they said "WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!?" "THAT'S RACIST!". I said, "It's a kind of cat, named after the state of Maine and a man named Daniel Coon, who bred them. They were called Coon's cats. Then people started calling them Maine Coons.".
11:36 DaemonFC; See, you can walk into something by describing what your cat is, or someone's cheapness.
11:36 DaemonFC; But "partner" is more subtle because it doesn't sound noxious on the face of it. Especially to foreign speakers of English.

11:41 DaemonFC; A pure blood Maine Coon can set you back almost $2,000 in some cases.
11:41 DaemonFC; It depends on what kind of lineage they can prove. Some people are kind of crazy like this.
11:41 DaemonFC; They had my cat at an animal shelter and I just "Oh, a Maine Coon! Cool!".
11:41 DaemonFC; So no "papers" proving 100% lineage.

11:43 DaemonFC; Pensions are pretty much a bad joke now.
11:43 DaemonFC; They still had a small one that John lost when they fired him from the government.
11:43 DaemonFC; To go along with a 401(k) style account.
11:44 DaemonFC; To be vested in the pension plan there, you have to be with them for 7 years, and he only lasted less than 6.
11:44 DaemonFC; So he lost the entire thing.
11:44 DaemonFC; Too bad, so sad.

11:48 DaemonFC; I liked Bernie Mac because he could say things that nobody else could get away with pointing out but were absolutely true. And if you can only get away with pointing out the disgusting and contemptible behavior of a sizable chunk of gay men by being gay, and that's the only way anyone will listen, then I'm going to use that.

11:50 DaemonFC; A lot of the reason homophobia still exists is because gay people won't confront the folks who are causing all of the stereotypes and tell them to knock it off.
11:50 DaemonFC; Or at least shut up about it if they persist.
11:51 DaemonFC; Illinois (still) has an interesting adultery law.
11:51 DaemonFC; It's illegal to commit adultery, but only if you openly flaunt it.
11:52 DaemonFC; In other words, "Don't do it and be loud about your corruption.".
11:52 DaemonFC; If you do it in a way where it isn't open and notorious, then it isn't a crime.
11:53 DaemonFC; It dates back to a time when most people had standards and didn't want to hear about that shit.

12:06 DaemonFC; There was some stuff that was "progressive" for the 80s and 90s in Trek then, but it didn't usually feel unnatural and creepy.
12:07 DaemonFC; I think the worst thing they ever did on Trek in that era was a background actor who was on camera a few times as a man in a dress.
12:07 DaemonFC; And it was so ridiculous and eye catching in the first season (after which they stopped doing it) that people made jokes about it on BBS systems, and even still do on the Web.
12:08 DaemonFC; Up until that point, "man in a dress" worked as comic relief, like in MASH where the guy was trying to get a psychiatric discharge from the Vietnam War.

12:14 DaemonFC; Mr Goolag was talking about admitting crimes in public. Everything is a crime.
12:14 DaemonFC; Like, right down to the speed limit.
12:14 DaemonFC; A cop can say that you were speeding even if you were going the posted speed limit.
12:15 DaemonFC; He can say, "Well, it was raining, so the speed limit wasn't safe, and in my opinion he should have been going 10 miles an hour slower, so I wrote him a ticket.".
12:16 DaemonFC; But even beyond that, it's unclear what isn't a crime when we have laws like "contributing to delinquency" and "disorderly conduct", which are unconstitutionally vague, and laws like Felony Agg UUW which are unconstitutional because a reasonable person would be unable to read the law and determine what is not allowed.
12:16 DaemonFC; There's a clause that I spoke to a lawyer about. I mentioned it the other day.
12:18 DaemonFC; Says that you commit Felony Aggravated Unlawful Weapons Use if you possess a firearm on any public property if you've "had a protective order issued against him or her" (Mr Goolag triggered, but that's what the law says) "in the past two years".
12:18 DaemonFC; The lawyer says you have to play it safe because a court could "very easily interpret this to mean within two years of the order being in effect, not within two years of the date it was issued".
12:19 DaemonFC; So it's possible to perfectly comply with the text of the law, then have the court make shit up that defies the English language, and you'll be the test case......from a prison cell.....if anyone even backs you for an appeal.
12:19 DaemonFC; Otherwise, have fun rotting in prison.

20:06 schestowitz-TR2; I think it is a "mode"
20:06 schestowitz-TR2; but you cannot install that with no GUI at all
20:06 schestowitz-TR2; maybe you can disable it later so that it sucks up less RAM
20:06 schestowitz-TR2; but the attack surface is still there
20:07 schestowitz-TR2; they try to mimic gnu/linux the wrong way
20:07 SomeH4x0r; I did install Windows Server 2019 earlier, it had "desktop experience" separate option iirc
20:07 schestowitz-TR2; as if when it's headless it magically becomes "secure"
20:07 schestowitz-TR2; SomeH4x0r: CLI installer?

23:12 activelow; plan is, to swap gcc against tinycc or pcc
23:12 seepinto; btw: rust is "open-source" but extremely difficult to compile because it requires you to compile every versions
23:12 activelow; gcc itself has become problematic too
23:13 activelow; 10years ago gcc could be bootstrapped with tinycc; nowadays C11 and c++ are the rustificatio equivalent in ordinary GNU realm
23:13 activelow; insofar, the rustification-strategy isn't news anymore
23:14 seepinto; at least C fans dont harass a developer for making a C bootstrapper using gcc
23:14 seepinto; replace C with rust
23:15 activelow; no thanks: rust is a llvm specific language-frontend
23:15 activelow; and llvm is essentially a bloated c++ compiler, just as any later than gcc-4.7 are

23:23 TR Bot; Darkening the Counterparts Reputation: Microsoft-Friendly (Sometimes Microsoft-Funded) Media Describing Every Security Issue Even Windows Issues as Linux | Techrights
23:23 seepinto; rust is just abstracting the programmer from memory allocation
23:24 activelow; with rust, and some other gcc extensions, i do not appreciate the idea the compiler adds runtime-diagnostics code, which the programmer didn't explicitely program, such as stack-smashing protection, bounds-checkers
23:24 activelow; besides the advertised "security" magic, i doubt it's as effective or practically useful as they say
23:25 seepinto; activelow: stuff like that iirc, can be added in if you really wanted (-fthread-debugger)
23:25 seepinto; and it should only be added in in debug builds not production
23:26 activelow; and rust entangles it
23:27 psydroid4; and the resulting binaries are probably slower
23:27 seepinto; and you have shit like the borrow checker that severely limits what you can write
23:27 seepinto; try writing a linked list without using the standard library's implementation
23:27 activelow; i was thinking about stack-smashing protection (and bounds-checkers, sanitizers etc.) for a long time
23:27 activelow; in the end, if unvalidated input wipes some memory, a program crashes almost always, with or without ssp
23:28 activelow; so, in essence, such runtime-diagnostics are, as seepinto proposed, forensics for debugging
23:29 seepinto; i like how rust fanatics like to harass developers for not writing their program in rust
23:29 activelow; i am disappointed, a C99 compiler probably doesn't suffice anymore, to compile GNU/Linux :(
23:30 activelow; rust is just another side-note of this shitshow
23:30 psydroid4; what isn't a shitshow these days?
23:31 activelow; anyway, if i succed with tinycc or pcc compiling the entire GNU/Linux system (wich all c++ removed already), this fits an important niche noone else thinks about anymore

23:37 seepinto; i bet the rest run like shit
23:37 schestowitz; picked in slave labourporograms
23:37 schestowitz; like gulag summer of labour
23:37 schestowitz; and now they can use shithub to write linux kernel drivers
23:37 schestowitz; maybe it'll even be as buggy as sage sharp's drivers for usb
23:37 schestowitz; which torvalds hated
23:38 schestowitz; tons of severe bugs exposed later
23:38 schestowitz; maybe hundreds
23:38 seepinto; they cant speak out against this
23:38 schestowitz; no
23:38 activelow; anyway, tomorrow i'll hack fontconfig package, to remove gperf dependency from it, because is written in c++ and fontconfig is crucial to the entire X11/GTK stuff

23:38 schestowitz; you get spanked
23:39 schestowitz; everyone's code is equally good
23:39 schestowitz; nobody has feelings hurt
23:39 schestowitz; all the code is equal
23:39 seepinto; so they sent away torvalds to therapy jail
23:39 schestowitz; everyone equal
23:39 schestowitz; no such thing as doubly- ungood patches
23:39 schestowitz; bugs are features
23:39 schestowitz; "this is how they will learn"
23:39 schestowitz; google will pay for internmships
23:40 schestowitz; U. of Minnesota will dom hypocrite pacthes
23:40 schestowitz; they are not bugs
23:40 seepinto; i bet internally they dont do this
23:40 schestowitz; they are features
23:40 schestowitz; they are meant to highlight audit lapses

23:40 seepinto; i like how it said "some binaries" in that rust replacement post
23:41 schestowitz; 0/1
23:41 seepinto; just remember your future coreutils will run 20x slower than it was 15 years ago
23:41 schestowitz; yeah
23:41 schestowitz; anyway, the whole thign is frustrating
23:41 schestowitz; it's hard to even talk about those issues
23:42 schestowitz; as they bring up totally unrelated BS
23:42 schestowitz; to distract from badness of decisions, code, policy
23:42 schestowitz; and now they employ anti-harassment team
23:42 schestowitz; of people who cannot code
23:42 schestowitz; which means
23:42 schestowitz; to keep the job
23:42 schestowitz; they will need to keep harassing people
23:43 activelow; stumbled upon coreutils too, and busybox; sadly gentoo is poisoned with non-POSIX bashism, and i had some other issues with busybox
23:43 schestowitz; the committees are stacked already http://techrights.org/2020/01/03/linux-kernel-code-of-conduct-committee/

23:43 activelow; otherwise, i had fully replaced all things with busybox already
23:43 seepinto; also unix philosophy will become a thing of the past
23:43 schestowitz; philosophy gets in the way of Business(R)
23:43 seepinto; soon you will see a init system trying to become a bootloader at the same time
23:43 schestowitz; philosophy is "hippie"
23:43 activelow; which is, what alpine linux does iirc, just had noticed
23:44 schestowitz; we saw how much "philosophy" meant to IBM 80-19 years ago
23:44 schestowitz; *90

23:44 seepinto; but it will be alot worse in the future
