00:59 activelow; they're broadcasting this for many years already, "alpha" science channel
00:59 DaemonFC; The ridiculous part of protective orders is that they don't protect anyone. For starters, you have to tell the person you claim to be afraid of everywhere you live, work, or are likely to be.
00:59 DaemonFC; Secondly, many people get angry when they're being served with one by the police.
00:59 DaemonFC; So they're angry and they know where you will be.
01:00 DaemonFC; Third, the police are not in any trouble if they fail to appear or protect a person with a protective order, so they really don't care.
01:00 DaemonFC; Fourth, even if they do come out, you have to prove the person was violating the order, which can be difficult if they leave before the cops show up.
01:01 DaemonFC; And finally, while being the subject of a protective order forces you to give up your guns, you could have more guns that the police don't know about, be angry, and know exactly where the person lives.
01:02 DaemonFC; It's better to get a gun than it is to get a protective order.
01:02 DaemonFC; Because the gun might save you, but the police probably won't get there in time.
01:03 DaemonFC; In most cases, protective orders are not taken out due to any genuine fear of someone, but rather as a means of harassing the recipient using the court as a pawn.

01:06 activelow; precious time and resources, of scientists, with decades of education, hundreds of thousands
01:06 DaemonFC; MinceR, If the Republicans do strike down same-sex marriage, one of their reasons will almost certainly be that "marriage is an institution for child rearing". And as such, they'll ignore gay people who have kids, or adopted kids. And they'll also ignore straight people who are sterile, choose not to have kids, or got married so late in life that it was never a realistic expectation of them.
01:06 DaemonFC; They tried that before, but it was in front of real judges. Not some idiots that Trump installed.
01:06 DaemonFC; So there's no telling where this will end up now.

01:07 DaemonFC; According to my dad's own ideology, his current wife should have lost her right to get married to anyone.
01:07 DaemonFC; Because she's never been able to have kids.
01:07 DaemonFC; So when you point that out, he goes on and says he thinks gay people are just sick and disgusting.
01:08 MinceR; DaemonFC: won't they just use the same bullshit phrase as what they're using for abortion?
01:08 DaemonFC; At least his fallback is honesty (of opinion) at last.
01:08 MinceR; some bullshit about the country's traditions or whatever
01:08 MinceR; it would also work on reinstating slavery
01:08 DaemonFC; Traditionally, this country didn't have any white people of European ancestry in it.
01:09 DaemonFC; So we should revert to that too if they win on "tradition".
01:09 MinceR; :>
01:09 MinceR; but you won't
01:09 MinceR; fascists don't want it
01:09 DaemonFC; Traditionally, most of the people in this country worshiped all sorts of "Pagan" gods and spirits and stuff and used drugs as part of their religious beliefs.
01:10 DaemonFC; So we should revert to that, because of tradition.
01:10 DaemonFC; When there's no more white people here and everyone who is left is doing rain dances because they're on drugs, we can talk about getting rid of gay marriage.
01:11 DaemonFC; I'll stipulate to that if they will.
01:12 DaemonFC; MinceR, I got looks from the prosecutor in traffic court, and my own attorney.
01:12 DaemonFC; Because they asked if I wanted a trial by judge or jury, and I asked if I could have a trial by combat. First with the people who ran into my car, then the cops, then the prosecutor.
01:12 MinceR; :)
01:14 DaemonFC; "No, okay, well, I guess we'll go see what the judge has to say."
01:14 DaemonFC; My attorney said I was one of the most bizarre clients he's ever had.
01:15 activelow; in germany, the legal status isn't "gay marriage", it is called registered "partnership"
01:15 DaemonFC; Yeah, they tried that here in some states.
01:15 activelow; with rights and obligations attached to it, including the responsibility to take care of each other (which affects social security)
01:16 DaemonFC; The laws are still on the books in Illinois.
01:16 activelow; meaning, if a partner becomes unemployed, you pay
01:16 MinceR; germany was under the malign control of the christian fundamentalist union for ages
01:16 MinceR; now that it's over, maybe they can fix things like that
01:16 DaemonFC; Oh yes, in Illinois you can go to prison for failure to take care of your spouse.
01:16 activelow; as far as children are concerned, it escapes my wisdom, how a government should or could interfere with this
01:16 DaemonFC; Also, failure to pay alimony.
01:16 DaemonFC; And it does happen!
01:16 activelow; i am certain, gay and lesbian may find ways to pro-create with each other
01:17 DaemonFC; Indiana allowed gay couples to adopt but they fought the ability of gay couples to get married.
01:17 DaemonFC; So that's weird, right?
01:18 activelow; yes, wouldn't know why that is
01:18 DaemonFC; "Oh it's a perfectly fine environment for children, but they can't get married because marriage is reserved for the purpose of raising children."
01:18 DaemonFC; Because Indiana is fucking insane.
01:18 DaemonFC; And the people who live there are nuts.
01:19 activelow; i think, many people are too hysterical about it
01:19 activelow; both, supporters and deniers of marriage
01:19 DaemonFC; When they finally accepted that the feds were going to pay 90% of their costs to expand Medicaid, they renamed it "Healthy Indiana Plan".
01:19 DaemonFC; The website acts like it's a state program, and mentions the Affordable Care Act or the federal government.....nowhere.
01:20 activelow; and, i am sceptical about child adoption, for a very simple fact, because i simply do not know if and how this affects children, nor would i want to judge

01:20 DaemonFC; Well, better than living with a mother who is on crack, I suppose.
01:20 DaemonFC; My cousin couldn't have children and decided to adopt.
01:20 activelow; anyway, gay and lesbian can arrange for children, and otherwise if they fail this isn't a distinct problem of them, hetero-people occasionally suffer from failed procreation too
01:21 DaemonFC; He seems to be well adjusted and getting along okay in school.
01:21 DaemonFC; I'm told his biological mother is a total basket case though.
01:21 activelow; it isn't the duty of a government or bureaucracy to dictate who procreates with whom, within legal boundaries (such as age of consent)
01:21 DaemonFC; Drugs and criminal records and shit.
01:22 DaemonFC; Well, the interesting thing about age of consent is it's largely a legal fiction.
01:22 activelow; dont't tell me there wasn't gay or lesbian, who suffered from drug addiction or other psychological problems
01:22 DaemonFC; The government can take a person who is fully cognizant of what's going on and say they aren't, and then that's the law.
01:23 DaemonFC; But there's a point where it's creepy and should definitely be illegal and considered predatory.
01:23 DaemonFC; But each state defines that differently.
01:23 activelow; anyway, the gay and lesbian are too hysterial alike; if they want children then they can arrange for it one way or another, which typically involves some biolgoical procedure, however you like it
01:23 activelow; and it isn't the duty of any government, to help with that

01:24 DaemonFC; No, but most of them are too narcissistic or at least self-destructive to want to adopt.
01:24 DaemonFC; So it becomes a self-correcting problem unless they happen to have a heterosexual encounter.
01:24 activelow; besides fact, i have an opinion on this too
01:25 DaemonFC; I'm not a narcissist. I just really don't give a damn about anything but what pertains to me and a few around me, for the most part.
01:25 DaemonFC; Some would say jaded, I suppose.
01:25 activelow; which is, children have a right to grow up with their mother _and_ father
01:25 activelow; guess what, if adoption criteria was relaxed, i bet it was mostly lesbian/females who adopted; and the fathers?
01:25 DaemonFC; If you let what goes on in the world deeply affect you, like 90% of it is horrible shit and you'll be deeply scarred and depressed by it all the time.
01:26 DaemonFC; So how does a person stay somewhat sane? They do not think about it.
01:26 DaemonFC; It's not that I really don't give a damn, it's that I force myself not to.
01:27 DaemonFC; There's 15 people shot every day in Chicago. Are you going to help them all? It's one city. No. You can't help them all, or even most, or any of them. And that's one thing.
01:27 DaemonFC; What about the fact that there's over 8 billion people, we're having trouble feeding half of them, and the Christians want more?
01:28 DaemonFC; Just do not think about it.
01:28 activelow; "drug capital city", that's what i read about chicago
01:28 DaemonFC; I mean, you know it's happening, but you don't have to obsess over it.
01:28 DaemonFC; There's a lot of crime in general in Chicago.
01:29 DaemonFC; A lot of it is violent, but a lot of it is just stuff that's "on the books".

01:30 DaemonFC; So I don't think there should be a law against it.
01:30 DaemonFC; There's prostitutes everywhere. If people still exist in 10,000 years there will be hookers.
01:31 DaemonFC; And all of the money and resources to try to stamp it out are just wasted.

04:27 activelow; finally... got sixel output in tmux with a patchset rebased against a recent version of it
04:28 activelow; some bugs remaining...
04:31 activelow; and there is another problem with this in principle, although it is conceptually correct, to output bitmaps tmux relies on the underlying terminal which is multiplexed to have the capability to render bitmap-sixel
04:31 activelow; yet... linux framebuffer console hasn't got it, without another terminal emulator on top, which there is one available
04:32 activelow; however, i do feel, full support for it belonged into the linux console itself... and there it isn't
04:32 activelow; too i noticed, the interesting parts, mostly, aren't GPL, those are MIT or ISC
04:33 activelow; which isn't a licensing issue, it is an indicator for what to expect from GPL, MIT or ISC
04:33 activelow; kernel is GPL, and hasn't got it, tmux and some framebuffer terminal emulator got it... with MIT license
04:37 activelow; given the whole situation of it, i do not trust ISC nor MIT
04:38 activelow; btw, the *BSD consoles (openbsd wscons and similar) haven't got it either
04:39 activelow; another problem is, terminal scrolling with sixels... given a use case with scientific authoring and similar, this is a mandatory feature
04:40 activelow; however, this is broken still, meaning a terminal session had to be captured into a log-file for replay currently, which at least is easily possible to achieve with a tty
04:51 activelow; another bug... switching tmux-panes too wipes the bitmap output, which was discussed in detail when tmux-sixel was forked
04:51 activelow; and no progress on this front in 5years
04:52 activelow; i do need a terminal-multiplexer, such as tmux or gnu screen... maybe i have better luck with gnu screen
04:53 activelow; and with the patched suckless terminal i got what i need already, except for the scrolling bug remaining
04:54 activelow; however, if tmux doesn't work as intended, or gnu screen, then the option to work remotely and _disconnect_/reconnect a session is gone
04:55 activelow; i may fix the scrolling bug, however i do not think tmux can be fixed to switch-panes and keep the sixel output... so i'll prepare for departure from this
04:56 activelow; remaining are gnu screen and some other tiny niche multiplexers
04:57 activelow; decision is made, after i ditched midnight commander, irssi, next on the hitlist is precious ISC licensed tmux

05:02 activelow; decision is made; i'll not rely on tmux anymore.
05:03 activelow; next one... which makes me think again, about linux kernel and the *BSD, all of them:

05:05 activelow; in the realm of proprietary the situation isn't different btw... because such terminal capabilities would crush the "business" model (corruption, scam) of various vendors

05:48 matey; too bad epsteins dead they could elect him too
05:49 DaemonFC; It says if he's convicted of the murder, Indiana law will take him off the ballot automatically.
05:49 matey; so politically
05:49 matey; if they want him to win, they must acquit
05:49 DaemonFC; That's actually kind of funny, because the parties never run more than the number of candidates they need in a multi-seat election that's on the same part of the ballot.
05:50 matey; or at least find him innocent
05:50 DaemonFC; So the third seat on that township board will go to a Democrat because the guy who ran as a Republican then got convicted of murder was on the ballot before they arrested him, but too late to remove him once they did.
05:51 matey; it still sounds a lot like calvinball

06:42 DaemonFC; Mom was complaining about gas being $4.12 in Indiana.
06:42 DaemonFC; It's $4.59 here.
06:42 DaemonFC; When you so don't want to hear about it....
06:43 DaemonFC; Then she complains that her Impala is a gas guzzler.
06:43 DaemonFC; If the engine was any larger, it would make more sense to make it into a "small" V8, and then she complains of fuel economy.
06:45 DaemonFC; There's a territory between a "large" V6 and a "small" V8 where you get about the same horsepower and torque out of either one, but dropping a couple of cylinders and just making them larger is somewhat more fuel efficient.
06:45 DaemonFC; So it makes more sense these days to just put a V6 in and bore out the cylinders so the thing weighs less, but performs rather like a smaller V8.
06:48 DaemonFC; I've never been a fan of four cylinder engines. I guess it's mainly because most of the ones I've actually driven around in were from the 90s and were not really what that car company wanted to do, but they had to make CAFE compliance cars, so they did it anyway and it showed.
06:49 DaemonFC; Nobody wanted a 4 cylinder engine because they were really wimpy and underpowered and slow, and sure they saved you gas, but gas was liek $1 a gallon, so nobody gave a shit.
06:50 DaemonFC; I mean, today, if you can save 30-40% of your gas money, that's like $1.50 or something every 25 miles or so, but back then it was like 30 cents. If that.
06:51 DaemonFC; I try not to look too much at what it costs me to fill up the tank anymore because it's just depressing.
06:52 DaemonFC; It's gone from like $18-19, to like $78 in the past 20 years or so.
06:52 DaemonFC; Anger with the Biden administration is about to boil over. I can see it. They can't, I guess.
06:53 DaemonFC; They think they can run on "Sure, gas is about to get to $5 a gallon, but did you know that we like abortion! True that! We love murdering us some babies!".
06:54 DaemonFC; And they actually think they're going to win on that.
06:54 DaemonFC; Like anyone even cares about carbon emissions right now.
06:54 DaemonFC; China doesn't! They're laughing.
06:55 DaemonFC; activelow, It's amazing that nobody has overthrown the German government yet if you're this much further along than we are.
06:55 DaemonFC; Like what platform are any of them winning elections on if a carton of eggs is $7.50 and gas is $8 a gallon?

07:12 TR Bot; EFF on Self-Censorship in Social Control Media - SoylentNews
07:14 schestowitz; "
07:14 schestowitz; Science fiction novelist, journalist, and technology activist, Cory Doctorow, has written an article at the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) covering the self-censorship that social control media participants exercise when playing to the algorithms, a behavior sometimes called algospeak. In pursuing algospeak, participants avoid certain words, phrases, and topics while boosting others to play to the automated moderation algorithms. If played
07:14 schestowitz; correctly the algorithm will actually raise the visibility of the content in question. If played incorrectly the content disappears off the radar. However, since the algorithm itself is unknown to the participants, the result usually falls somewhere in between even after a lot of trial and error.
07:14 schestowitz; "Algospeak" is a new English dialect that emerged from the desperate attempts of social media users to "please the algorithm": that is, to avoid words and phrases that cause social media platforms' algorithms to suppress or block their communication.
07:14 schestowitz; Algospeak is practiced by all types of social media users, from individuals addressing their friends to science communicators and activists hoping to reach a broader public. But the most ardent practitioners of algospeak are social media creators, who relydirectly or indirectlyon social media to earn a living.
07:14 schestowitz; For these creators, accidentally blundering into an invisible linguistic fence erected by social media companies can mean the difference between paying their rent or not. When you work on a video for days or weeksor even yearsand then "the algorithm" decides not to show it to anyone (not even the people who explicitly follow you or subscribe to your feed), that has real consequences.
07:14 schestowitz; Cory Doctorow goes into a bit more depth about how these circumstances are abnormal and closes by recommending the Santa Clara Principles on transparency and accountability in content moderation.
07:14 schestowitz; While there are a lot of articles here on SN about censorship as it is imposed from the outside, self-censorship gets relatively little coverage at least by name. Social control media has been using the computer as a Skinner box. Skinner himself would have been impressed, though whether positively or negatively is another matter.

20:55 bnchs; did you just blame the kernel for shell problems
20:57 ipet; bruh its not a shell problem
20:57 DaemonFC; I'm neutral on the issue of suicide. The problem with suicide is that it happens due to external factors that people either aren't interested in abating or are actively trying to cause. So under those conditions, it can't ever stop. But it is a personal choice, for whatever the reason may be.
20:58 SomeH4x0r; > there are if you do it right | and there are if you do it wrong either. Any action has consequences.
20:58 DaemonFC; Allowing people to go into poverty or to be unable to get their cancer medications is a choice made by the majority, or it wouldn't happen.

20:59 SomeH4x0r; I'm also neutral, but I dislike "helpers" who try to mislead people who say they want to kill themselves. IMHO, one should either respond the asked question, or not say anything at all.
20:59 DaemonFC; But in many cases, terminal illness only gets that far because people couldn't afford healthcare.
21:00 bnchs; schestowitz, what gemini server software do you use
21:00 DaemonFC; So it seems kind of perverse that the state will pay for them to get morphine, but not to prevent their cancer from becoming terminal.
21:00 TR News; Does Planet Debian allow only pro-abortion blog posts? Would the opposite lead to Code of Conduct action? I can imagine it would in Planet Mozilla.

21:01 ipet; how to get cancer to get free morphine?
21:01 DaemonFC; I asked some conservatives why, if they were pro-life, they wanted to get rid of WIC, food stamps, affordable housing (what little there is of it), public education, and healthcare programs, all of which help stop people from dying early.
21:02 bnchs; ipet: get an HEV suit
21:02 DaemonFC; And their answer is always that people deserve a "chance". Unfortunately, when you have a lot of uneducated unhealthy people who can't get a job or housing or healthcare competing with each other, the chance for any of them to thrive dwindles.

21:06 DaemonFC; General Hammond comments that "In my experience, these things tend to bring up a lot of questions that nobody has answers for.".
21:07 DaemonFC; But behind every suicide, there were reasons leading up to it. Sometimes painfully obvious reasons, and nobody wants to talk about those reasons because they'd feel guilty, so they don't ask the questions.
21:07 DaemonFC; Illinois is about to roll out some 988 number for mental health crises and I think it's ridiculous.
21:08 DaemonFC; It's not like I don't ever deal with bouts of depression, but I so do not trust the government enough to call a number on myself.
21:08 ipet; morphine isnt used anymore
21:08 ipet; its fentanill
21:08 DaemonFC; Nobody is going to seek "help" because it tends to not be what you get on the other side of the phone.

21:09 DaemonFC; And they're known for doxxing people and sending the police.
21:09 SomeH4x0r; isn't it just about imprisoning people into mental hospitals?
21:09 schestowitz-TR; "send in THE MACRINES!"
21:09 SomeH4x0r; fuck such "help"
21:09 DaemonFC; And those lead to the "encounters" that Governor Pritzker admitted "end tragically". So you'd have to wonder why he's making it easier for that to happen.
21:10 schestowitz-TR; SomeH4x0r: better speak to real people, not employees
21:10 SomeH4x0r; and I think the whole purpose of it is to ensure the slaves don't start disappearing
21:10 schestowitz-TR; they view you as a customer or subject
21:10 ipet; i didnt knew you could use suicide prevention hotline for swating
21:10 schestowitz-TR; usually it's not like that

21:10 schestowitz-TR; and the call for help
21:11 schestowitz-TR; turned out to be unintended swatting
21:11 DaemonFC; So they can tell to about three feet where you are when you call them, just like 911.
21:11 SomeH4x0r; parents are masters, children are slaves
21:11 SomeH4x0r; fuck this system. Fuck society. They say slavery is over but they don't care about children.

21:13 schestowitz-TR; ICBM does not have to be a nukes
21:13 schestowitz-TR; *nuke
21:13 DaemonFC; It's as good a reason as any to avoid having kids. You get "regulated" by the state in yet another way, which their system of laws does not allow for if you don't have any kids.
21:13 schestowitz-TR; it can also be precision missile
21:13 ipet; redhat/linuke
21:14 DaemonFC; If you lose your job, you can lose your house. When you lose your house, and you and your kids are living in a van, the state can punish you for "failure to provide appropriate housing".
21:14 schestowitz-TR; like winnuke

22:52 DaemonFC; Including some who helped Hitler come to power and beat up Communists and other people resisting the Nazis, in the streets. They still didn't deserve what happened to them. It just goes to say, be careful who you throw in with. Once they don't need you anymore, they could be as dangerous to you as anyone else.

22:55 DaemonFC; <schestowitz-TR> anyway, subversives are usually male
22:55 DaemonFC; I do wonder why.
22:56 DaemonFC; Heh, Ian McNiece as Winston Churchill (Doctor Who).
22:56 DaemonFC; He also played Vladimir Harkonnen (The Baron) in the Dune miniseries.
22:57 DaemonFC; Very strange series of books, and movies. They haven't been able to move much past the first book (Dune, not the in-universe chronology) because people have badly botched the first attempt at a movie.
22:58 DaemonFC; The Sci-Fi Channel's version is better than the 1984 or 2020 movies, and on a much smaller budget.
22:59 DaemonFC; If you ignore the CGI scenes in the mini-series that is. It didn't get a huge budget. I felt like they could have built upon that much more easily. When the Sci-Fi Channel authorized Children of Dune, they gave it an even smaller budget and many of the actors didn't want to return and they had to find new ones and it doesn't make for watching back to back.
