00:00 highest_cubist_thrills; the fallacy is "if x is free, user is free, and y and z dont matter"
00:00 highest_cubist_thrills; y and z are just other ways to potentially control the user
00:00 highest_cubist_thrills; the fallacy is to see x as a lens or gate through which only freedom can get through
00:00 highest_cubist_thrills; control x and you control your computing
00:00 highest_cubist_thrills; but computing isnt x
00:00 highest_cubist_thrills; move part of x to another venue and you can get controlled via that venue instead
00:01 highest_cubist_thrills; where "venue" is a sort of technology or platform for some aspect of computing
00:01 highest_cubist_thrills; (like js or saas or plugins or whatever)
00:01 highest_cubist_thrills; these days x is the license :)
00:02 highest_cubist_thrills; the license is vital, but if it were enough tivoisation would have never existed
00:03 highest_cubist_thrills; tivoisation showed gpl2 wasnt enough-- lobbying showed gpl3 wasnt enough
00:03 highest_cubist_thrills; the fsf completely fails in its mission against the vector of lobbyists.

00:07 highest_cubist_thrills; and while its possible he came to this conclusion on his own, tbh it reeks of someone poking his registers.
00:07 psydruid; I think centralization of code repositories hurt the resilience of the movement

00:08 highest_cubist_thrills; but yes its possible he made a decision that foolish on his own. heres an article where he warns against precisely this sort of thing:
00:09 psydruid; IBM could have tried to dominate all decentralised forks, but it would have been like a game of whack-a-mole
00:09 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean posted it the other day
00:09 highest_cubist_thrills; IBM could have tried to dominate all decentralised forks <- instead htey created a new de-facto standard
00:09 highest_cubist_thrills; or rather red hat did it for them
00:10 highest_cubist_thrills; the person who engineered it came from novell.
00:10 highest_cubist_thrills; just because ibm didnt own red hat yet doesnt mean they had no hand in this
00:10 highest_cubist_thrills; but someone who knew how to take shit over did
00:10 highest_cubist_thrills; was systemd engineered this way from day 1? i dunno.

00:11 highest_cubist_thrills; you create new standards, you force others to follow them
00:11 highest_cubist_thrills; systemd is openly and blatantly anti-posix
00:11 highest_cubist_thrills; it mocks everything gnu is built on
00:11 schestowitz[TR]; red hat even told me its swpats were harmless
00:11 highest_cubist_thrills; granted gnu extends, quite shamelessly. so does everyone else.
00:11 schestowitz[TR]; than a LOBBYING FOR swpats took over
00:12 schestowitz[TR]; *LOBBYING GIANT
00:12 highest_cubist_thrills; red hat even told me its swpats were harmles <- from the standpoint of a major corporation they arguably are
00:12 highest_cubist_thrills; harmless to anyone that matters
00:12 highest_cubist_thrills; poverty is also harmless, to the rich.
00:12 psydruid; which makes you wonder if ibm already planted some people at red hat in the late 90s and early 2000s to pave the way for a later acquisition
00:13 highest_cubist_thrills; which makes you wonder if ibm already planted some people at red hat in the late 90s and early 2000s <- it isnt necessary to the point, but its not impossible either
00:13 schestowitz[TR]; to be clear, it's not going WELL for ICBM
00:13 schestowitz[TR]; for Pentagon? Maybe.
00:13 schestowitz[TR]; Probably.
00:13 highest_cubist_thrills; x is dying, yada yada yada
00:13 schestowitz[TR]; but ICBM is mishandling Red Hat very badly
00:13 schestowitz[TR]; lots of staff leaving

00:13 schestowitz[TR]; so how did novell work out?
00:13 highest_cubist_thrills; dont worry about anything! x is dying.
00:13 schestowitz[TR]; they were certain they'd get ahead
00:14 schestowitz[TR]; instead they died

00:21 highest_cubist_thrills; ICBM is mishandling Red Hat very badly <- this was predicteed before the sale was final
00:21 highest_cubist_thrills; companies like to purchase competition.
00:22 highest_cubist_thrills; the competition costs them money if it exists in other (competitors) hands
00:22 highest_cubist_thrills; if they own it, then milk it, and run it into the ground then:
00:22 highest_cubist_thrills; 1. it pays for itself if it no longer costs them (and saves what they spent)
00:22 highest_cubist_thrills; 2. if they milk it first, it helps contribute to #1 while as an added bonus makes it look like "well, we tried!"
00:23 highest_cubist_thrills; so they can deny running it into the ground
00:23 highest_cubist_thrills; but weve seen the industry do this enough times in 30 years to not be so naive
00:23 highest_cubist_thrills; especially ibm and microsoft
00:23 highest_cubist_thrills; google has also done it, but mostly with shit normies dont care about
00:24 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean, who the fuck used google wave?
00:24 highest_cubist_thrills; keyword: mostly
00:24 highest_cubist_thrills; besides:
00:25 highest_cubist_thrills; ICBM is mishandling Red Hat very badly <- its a given-as-a-work-in-progress that this will happen
00:25 highest_cubist_thrills; since every time the industry buys something they fuck it up and it "dies"
00:25 highest_cubist_thrills; just not in a timeframe that makes this mantra very useful
00:26 highest_cubist_thrills; sure it dies. github will die someday
00:26 highest_cubist_thrills; its going to take half of free software with it. thats worth SO MUCH more than microsoft paid for it
00:26 highest_cubist_thrills; or probably could have paid for it.
00:26 highest_cubist_thrills; they got what they wanted.
00:27 highest_cubist_thrills; thats what "x is dying" glosses over and practically ends up denying
00:27 highest_cubist_thrills; this. was. the. plan.
00:27 highest_cubist_thrills; see the plan, they wrote it 20 years ago.
00:27 highest_cubist_thrills; ffs
00:28 highest_cubist_thrills; x is being slaughtered is more to the point
00:29 highest_cubist_thrills; part of the reasons that companies have departments and projects is so they can axe them and move on
00:29 highest_cubist_thrills; its a regular part of the business cycle
00:30 highest_cubist_thrills; sometimes its not what they wanted, but that hardly changes the fact that it so often is part of their plan.
00:31 highest_cubist_thrills; no tragedy for the company at all. literally what they intended from the start.

01:26 TR News; "Today, I'll share about a special Linux file system that I really enjoy. It's called NILFS and has been imported into Linux in 2009, so it's not really a new player, despite being stable and used in production it never got popular." gemini://perso.pw/blog/articles/linux-nilfs-filesystem.gmi

01:27 TR News; "I saw a post recently that implied that the Gemini protocol was so restrictive, it would make e-commerce nonviable. I don't think this is true at all." gemini://tilde.pink/~slondr/gemini-ecommerce.gmi
01:27 frog; schestowitz[TR]: i first stumbled upon it on phoronix, when thinkint about filesystems
01:27 frog; still highly regard the design and implementation of NILFS2, and use it on my systems
01:28 TR News; "Many years ago, I was active on a fan site based on the MS DOS video game "Jazz Jackrabbit". The site featured user-created content packs, ranging from custom levels to tilesets to helper programs, and of course fan remixes of game music." gemini://jsreed5.org/log/2022/202210/20221005-small-music-module-files.gmi
01:28 frog; however, with Oasis Linux i had to fully re-integrate of the entire makefile into oasis package management, which is possible/feasible
01:29 frog; but, too i intend to roll-back to linux 2.4, and i neither can nor want to back-port nilfs2 there
01:29 frog; meaning i'll probably abandon nilfs2 too, not because of the quality benefits nilfs2 has, because of integration problems elsewhere, not caused by nilfs2 either
01:30 highest_cubist_thrills; technically all computers with more than one bit are non-binary
01:32 frog; schestowitz[TR]: since you asked a while ago, if i am programming ocassionally; well, i still got the tiny fsck utility for nilfs2 here
01:34 schestowitz[TR]; so you created it?
01:34 frog; i'll miss that feature, to verify all data and metadata segment crc32, and with 100% certainty knowing nothing bit-flipped
01:34 frog; only the tiny fsck utility
01:34 schestowitz[TR]; you can use raid

03:39 DaemonFC; Not their best.
03:54 highest_cubist_thrills; /me continues looking for new (non-github) entries in the free software directory
03:55 highest_cubist_thrills; despite roys misplayed optimism, there is so little. its mostly stuff that was already there before this year.
03:55 highest_cubist_thrills; yes, there are non-github projects. the ones getting into the fsd however, are nearly all github
03:56 highest_cubist_thrills; imo there are two ways to interpret this
03:56 highest_cubist_thrills; one is that the fsf / free software directory are showing favouritism to github. thats bad.
03:57 highest_cubist_thrills; the other possibility is that of the projects that SHOULD matter to the fsf... theyre all github-based.
03:57 highest_cubist_thrills; also bad. but in a different way.
03:58 DaemonFC; Even SourceForge has git now so I mean, like, why would anyone use github?
03:58 highest_cubist_thrills; in one version its the fsfs fault, and in the other version (which i find more plausble) its the state of software itself to blame
03:58 highest_cubist_thrills; i dont actually blame the fsd for this. its a symptom, not a cause
03:58 highest_cubist_thrills; but if things arent actually bad, then the fsf is showing favoritism to github.
03:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 25.35 k/sec., IPFS upstream 41.33 average k/sec., average swarm size 141.20
04:02 highest_cubist_thrills; first i remove the github stuff
04:02 highest_cubist_thrills; then i remove the gnu trademark fraud stuff
04:02 highest_cubist_thrills; which isnt much at all (this year i mean)
04:03 highest_cubist_thrills; then i remove the stuff that isnt new-- stuff before this year
04:03 highest_cubist_thrills; then i see how much new non-github stuff there is
04:04 highest_cubist_thrills; itll probably be better next year-- and the year after that too
04:04 highest_cubist_thrills; just nothing like the way its suggested by optimism
04:04 highest_cubist_thrills; projects are not moving away from github
04:04 highest_cubist_thrills; anything that is moving is CRAWLING away
04:05 highest_cubist_thrills; snail like
04:05 highest_cubist_thrills; the exodus was in 2018
04:05 highest_cubist_thrills; new things still move there-- the state of free software is microsoft
04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; and really, ill tell you a great litmus test for roys rhetoric about this
04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; roy LOVES loves LOVES to publish
04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; so...
04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; IF there really was a fucking exodus from github
04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; and there isnt btw
04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; there would be stories about projects leaving
04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; not just "oh, github is bad, a bunch of projects left"
04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; no-- roy writes about software all the time
04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; where the stories about ACTUAL PROJECTS (with names) that have left recently?
04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; there arent any. wouldnt that be a great story for techrights?
04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; problem is-- there is no exodus.
04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; no story to write about.
04:11 highest_cubist_thrills; you might find a project, and if you do-- thats a story in itself.
04:11 highest_cubist_thrills; but you arent going to find much, so if you want to paint a rosy picture about this-- you better make shit up.
04:11 highest_cubist_thrills; you cant name names cause there isnt much to name.
04:11 highest_cubist_thrills; so thats a good litmus test.
04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; when this "github exodus" really exists
04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; youll be able to write stories that name names.
04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; pretty simple.
04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; what happens on github-- stays on github.
04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; i know an exception: slitaz. moved there. moved away again.
04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; im afraid to look if they moved back again.
04:13 highest_cubist_thrills; roy should know more exceptions. hes the optimist.
04:13 highest_cubist_thrills; id love to know what we can be optimistic about. these (imaginary) projects leaving github deserve credit!
04:14 highest_cubist_thrills; leaving github is heroic.
04:14 highest_cubist_thrills; it deserves a story.
04:14 highest_cubist_thrills; too bad its made up then
04:17 starstreak; people probably use github because its free
04:17 highest_cubist_thrills; oh without question
04:17 highest_cubist_thrills; but they also use it because of network effects
04:17 highest_cubist_thrills; its the facebook of repos
04:17 highest_cubist_thrills; lots of repos are free
04:18 highest_cubist_thrills; then they move to github
04:18 highest_cubist_thrills; not from it
04:18 highest_cubist_thrills; roy correctly points out 200,000 projects left when microsoft purchased it
04:18 highest_cubist_thrills; that definitely indicates something
04:18 highest_cubist_thrills; problem is, that was 4 years ago
04:19 highest_cubist_thrills; ive been tracking this for a while
04:19 highest_cubist_thrills; its not good
04:19 highest_cubist_thrills; 4 years later we should have more good news than this.
04:19 highest_cubist_thrills; we dont, because everything sucks.

04:20 highest_cubist_thrills; most of the high profile projects that dont use github have done some other treacherous thing
04:20 highest_cubist_thrills; like if you want a non-github-based mozilla fork, theres tor browser
04:20 highest_cubist_thrills; but tor project was part of the coup
04:20 highest_cubist_thrills; so was red hat. so were gcc devs
04:20 highest_cubist_thrills; so freedesktop has its own repo
04:21 highest_cubist_thrills; but theyre ibm so who cares

05:03 DaemonFC; I don't exactly feel free to speak openly.
05:04 DaemonFC; You know, the whole thing about expungement is they act like it's a gift or something, after they've destroyed you and made you an un-person.
05:06 DaemonFC; If you look at old pictures of Iran from before the Islamic revolution, it's really quite stunning.
05:06 DaemonFC; It was a modern and reasonably free country, at least compared to now.
05:06 DaemonFC; Then in 1979, the Revolution happened and they ended up with a violent repressive regime that murders gay people in the streets and forces women to cover their faces. They have no rights, you know.
05:07 DaemonFC; Total barbarism.
05:08 DaemonFC; And I can't help but feeling like living in America now is like it must have felt before the Shah's government was overthrown in Iran. There must have been people who knew they'd be oppressed and killed very soon and were uneasy, and knew that their days of relative freedom were numbered.

05:09 DaemonFC; When Putin became the "President" of Russia over 20 years ago, there were limits on his power, there were term limits, there was a functioning legislature.
05:10 DaemonFC; And you look at it today and anything he signs sails through, unanimously. The guy is a dictator. Why do they even have a legislature?
05:10 DaemonFC; Everyone either seems to agree with him or knows they'll be poisoned if they try to start a debate.

12:09 DaemonFC; The Soviets called not wanting to live under Communism "sluggish schizophrenia". There's a national highway going through Russia today that was built by GULAG labor, and 140,000 people who died building it are buried directly under the road. However, even with that going on, liberals in America, especially professors and musicians, and artists, often tried to paint a rosy picture of life in...
12:09 DaemonFC; ...the Soviet Union.

12:10 schestowitz[TR]; i.e. exploitation mexed up
12:11 schestowitz[TR]; leads to similar results, maybe less directly
12:11 schestowitz[TR]; because it has maxed up the borrowings
12:11 starstreak; as bad as communism has been in practice, capitalism is responsible for even worse
12:12 DaemonFC; Well, you give me a choice between this or China and it's this, this, definitely this.
12:12 schestowitz[TR]; how many die in the US each year because they cannot get very basic medical treatment?
12:12 DaemonFC; Less than in China.
12:12 schestowitz[TR]; china has better heath care system than the US
12:12 DaemonFC; (per capita)
12:12 schestowitz[TR]; in the US it's privatised
12:12 schestowitz[TR]; you're better off when you are rich
12:12 schestowitz[TR]; or when you sell your home
12:12 schestowitz[TR]; to survive
12:12 DaemonFC; Do you need more medical care when there's so much air pollution in China you can't see 4 feet in front of your nose?
12:12 DaemonFC; :)
12:13 schestowitz[TR]; not every place in china
12:13 DaemonFC; Assuming you can even get it and it's not one of those Communist things.
12:13 schestowitz[TR]; also, us has cancer ally, flint, puerto rico...
12:13 DaemonFC; Where they say you have medical care, and then you can't actually use it.
12:13 schestowitz[TR]; the us is no grand canyon
12:13 schestowitz[TR]; never mind gun crime
12:13 DaemonFC; Pretty much every country that has national healthcare makes it almost impossible to use.
12:14 schestowitz[TR]; not china
12:14 DaemonFC; Like, you can have the operation 6 years from now, but you'll die in a year without it.
12:14 DaemonFC; But it's free, you know! :)
12:14 schestowitz[TR]; china's health care access is better than us
12:14 schestowitz[TR]; even cuba's
12:14 DaemonFC; Most National Healthcare is fairly shitty.
12:14 schestowitz[TR]; no, china does it better on health
12:14 schestowitz[TR]; from people I know who lived there
12:14 DaemonFC; It's free, but they make you wait so long you'll be dead six times over even though it's "free" and for some reason your taxes are really horrible.
12:14 DaemonFC; Totally unrelated.
12:15 schestowitz[TR]; china is worse off in many ways
12:15 schestowitz[TR]; but now you mix things
12:15 DaemonFC; Then they all thumb their nose at me where I could have the operation next month if I needed it, and live.
12:15 DaemonFC; And maybe pay 5% of the bill.
12:15 DaemonFC; While the hospitals and ERs in Canada fail due to the doctors fleeing the country and coming here.
12:16 DaemonFC; While Trudeau is trying to add more unfunded mandates.
12:16 schestowitz[TR]; you are mixing two things
12:16 schestowitz[TR]; the US has very good doctors
12:16 schestowitz[TR]; from all around the world
12:16 schestowitz[TR]; but they come for the rich people
12:16 schestowitz[TR]; or people to prey on
12:16 DaemonFC; That's usually what happens when the government says "Hell Doctor. Work for what you made in the year 2000 because our budget won't be increased. Thanks!"
12:16 schestowitz[TR]; that does not benefit you and Manddddy
12:16 DaemonFC; "BTW, the border is open."
12:16 schestowitz[TR]; you're hardly on their radar
12:17 DaemonFC; *Hello
12:17 DaemonFC; I mean, they're a doctor.
12:17 DaemonFC; Why wouldn't they leave and just work in the US?
12:17 schestowitz[TR]; two tired in the US
12:17 schestowitz[TR]; the poor, maybe 90%
12:17 DaemonFC; They'll make more money here.
12:17 schestowitz[TR]; and the 19%
12:17 schestowitz[TR]; 10%
12:17 schestowitz[TR]; who have (IIRC) like 3/4 of the US capital
12:17 DaemonFC; So what you have in the NHS countries are shitty doctors and about 1 of them for every 10 doctors you need.
12:17 schestowitz[TR]; the 90% hold onto scraps
12:18 DaemonFC; Hence, 6 year waiting lists and stuff.
12:18 schestowitz[TR]; and work two jobs to pay a mortgage they can never fully pay anyway
12:18 schestowitz[TR]; so they will default
12:18 schestowitz[TR]; and give it to the bank anyway
12:18 schestowitz[TR]; NHS absorbed many good doctors and nurses from other countries too
12:18 schestowitz[TR]; it's under attack
12:18 schestowitz[TR]; by US firms mostly
12:18 schestowitz[TR]; with 'UK' offshoots
12:18 DaemonFC; Of course it is. The government is cheap.
12:19 DaemonFC; It's cheaper for Liz Trump and Bogus and everyone if you just fucking die.
12:19 DaemonFC; Then they don't have to pay shit.
12:19 DaemonFC; Real nice system.
12:19 schestowitz[TR]; anyway, back to tech now
12:19 schestowitz[TR]; we're gone astray

12:22 DaemonFC; That's mainly why we still have bankruptcy laws. By the time it's that bad, they're not getting anything anyway.

12:23 schestowitz[TR]; what income?
12:24 DaemonFC; If you take the state's garnishment law and run the calculations, then there's nothing left for them to take.
12:24 schestowitz[TR]; what income?
12:24 DaemonFC; The calculation comes back less than zero disposable income, and they can't garnish anything.

12:35 schestowitz[TR]; because they have no chance of finding a job
12:35 schestowitz[TR]; the media calls them "lazy"
12:36 schestowitz[TR]; for not managing to find a job
12:36 schestowitz[TR]; and wasting time on envelopes, travel etc.
12:36 DaemonFC; Yes, incite the public against people who can't find a job, or even people who have one but can't find a better one.
12:36 schestowitz[TR]; then it says immigrants do those jobs instead
12:36 schestowitz[TR]; except

12:40 schestowitz[TR]; maybe 96% 20 years ago
12:40 DaemonFC; Or it would be done already.
12:40 schestowitz[TR]; self-censorship is not acceptance
12:41 schestowitz[TR]; anyway, Liz Trump might be out soon
12:41 DaemonFC; Is it a done deal that the UK is fucked? Probably.
12:41 schestowitz[TR]; one way or another
12:41 schestowitz[TR]; maybe snap election
12:41 DaemonFC; If anything, it's getting worse every time.
12:41 schestowitz[TR]; but let's get back to tech
12:41 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]self-censorship is not acceptance
12:41 DaemonFC; That's where things have landed.
12:42 schestowitz[TR]; back to tech now
12:42 DaemonFC; More people bite their tongue now and then actually hate trans people even worse for having to stifle themselves.
12:42 schestowitz[TR]; so anyway, I got some graphis
12:42 starstreak; 95% seems like too much
12:42 schestowitz[TR]; they show GNU/Linux growing a lot this year... and where
12:42 starstreak; i think its more like 50% based on my experience
12:42 schestowitz[TR]; starstreak: EU and US+Canada is about 8% of the world
12:42 DaemonFC; Forcing people to censor themselves leads them to feel oppressed, then justified, then they actually become more bigoted.
12:42 schestowitz[TR]; and even there trans are barely accepted
12:42 starstreak; oh yeah
12:42 schestowitz[TR]; but back to tech
12:42 DaemonFC; It's better to just leave them alone instead of screaming about them. What is screaming going to do?
12:43 starstreak; trans people are hated in India and China, most of the worlds population is there
12:43 DaemonFC; My parents are homophobic and the only thing that's going to change that is clinical death.
12:43 schestowitz[TR]; and b y women, too
12:43 schestowitz[TR]; remember women are most of the people in the world
12:43 schestowitz[TR]; they just learn to keep quiet
12:44 DaemonFC; I've accepted that whatever I do, my parents are going to be horrible.
12:44 DaemonFC; If anything they've gotten either worse or more open about it with old age.
12:44 DaemonFC; Less to lose. Nobody in the environment they're in to answer to for it.
12:44 DaemonFC; So they just lose their filter entirely.

13:21 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: The political status in The Handmaid's Tale of the ongoing war between Gilead and what let's of the United States is implausibly vague at this part of the story.
13:21 DaemonFC; It's clear that Gilead has not firmly established control of states West of Indiana on down.
13:22 DaemonFC; The front is established as Chicago, however the US flag only has two stars left on it (Alaska and Hawaii).
13:23 DaemonFC; If the front in the war is actually Chicago, it's pretty obvious the rump state of the US is a lot bigger than Alaska and Hawaii.
13:24 DaemonFC; Gilead has managed to gain a firm grip on the majority of the eastern seaboard, and as it goes west, it seems that they're no longer in undisputed control as of Illinois.
13:25 DaemonFC; Their troops are seen conducting bombings and raids in Chicago, but they don't control it. They send in soldiers on train and it's apparently turned into a siege.
13:26 DaemonFC; I'm not exactly sure how this would happen. Chicago isn't well protected from "Gilead" coming across the border from Indiana.
13:27 DaemonFC; Who are they in a fight with? The Democrats have disarmed everyone except street gangs.
13:27 DaemonFC; Street gangs and remnants of the Illinois National Guard?

13:51 schestowitz[TR]; I ended up just using a tuner

13:52 schestowitz[TR]; broadcasting from the stereo to a heeadset over what was then not wifi or BT ... cshort range radio... like walkie-talkie

13:57 DaemonFC; Sounds like mjg59_ should have a talk with his Microsoft recruiter about robust failure modes. :)
13:58 schestowitz[TR]; wait, was that a JPEG bug?
13:58 schestowitz[TR]; I read about it
13:58 schestowitz[TR]; but did not know the cause
13:58 DaemonFC; Like, the car's tuner will freeze and lock on to that station and you can't even control the volume anymore because the JPEG didn't come through and there's no code to say "Okay, well, we should discard the JPEG then.".
13:58 schestowitz[TR]; did they pin it down on edge case/unhancled exception
13:58 DaemonFC; Yeah, JPEG.
13:59 schestowitz[TR]; and that it is irreversible now?
13:59 schestowitz[TR]; but wait
13:59 DaemonFC; People driving out of range just as the JPEG was coming in.
13:59 schestowitz[TR]; why would a radio get a JPEG?
13:59 schestowitz[TR]; wavelet for..?
13:59 schestowitz[TR]; and not sanitise input, and...
13:59 DaemonFC; Because it's a touch screen that supports "HD Radio".
13:59 schestowitz[TR]; no reset button?
13:59 DaemonFC; Which includes cover art.

14:01 schestowitz[TR]; well, karma
14:01 schestowitz[TR]; meanwhile I still use my old electronics
14:01 DaemonFC; It was relying on an old JavaScript feature that got removed and replaced in Firefox 58.

14:02 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]meanwhile I still use my old electronics

14:02 schestowitz[TR]; yeah, but not for the bugs
14:02 schestowitz[TR]; mostly how short they last
14:02 schestowitz[TR]; von shef kettle... one year, DEAD
14:02 DaemonFC; You pay a fucking fortune for them then they break in a couple years and no refund and you're just supposed to give up and replace it.
14:02 DaemonFC; I got one for $10 on Amazon.
14:03 DaemonFC; It's two years old and still works.
14:03 schestowitz[TR]; used how often?
14:03 schestowitz[TR]; you should count uses, not time
14:03 DaemonFC; Daily, several times.
14:03 schestowitz[TR]; maybe you are lucky ;)
14:03 schestowitz[TR]; you are an "edge case"
14:04 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: The seals on the Instant Pots fail about every 3 years or so.
14:04 schestowitz[TR]; like the person they put on TV with a car showing at 1,000,000 miles at the gausge
14:04 schestowitz[TR]; *gauge
14:04 DaemonFC; So they replaced the whole lid for free under the safety recall, which got me a new seal obviously.
14:04 DaemonFC; I took some serials off of units at the thrift shop and got some more lids.
14:04 DaemonFC; And now we wait. :P

19:20 techuser; GCompris Windows build even had some DRM
19:22 starstreak; techuser, https://i.imgur.com/xzsWBt1.jpg
19:22 starstreak; <techuser> e.g. Krita on Steam, HexChat on Microsoft Store
19:22 starstreak; that seems ironic
19:22 starstreak; hexchat was born because xchat started selling a windows version
19:22 techuser; we can't win when we have greedy devilopers
19:23 starstreak; looks like i gotta stop using hexchat
19:23 techuser; who don't care if it is free software or paid
19:23 techuser; they still provide .exe for download
19:23 techuser; on Microsoft Store, they say the people who don't want to pay can click "download free trial"
19:23 starstreak; its packaged with arch linux
19:24 techuser; except people don't except "free trial" to be fully functional version
19:24 starstreak; but how can i support a project that has a paid windows version
19:24 techuser; so if they are regular people who don't bother reading a lot of stuff, they will just click "buy". It is a scam.
19:25 techuser; I used to be on another IRC network. I don't know any other "user-friendly" IRC clients, so I had to advertise HexChat. So here is what my manual said:
19:25 starstreak; there is konversation
19:25 starstreak; do i want to run another kde app though
19:25 techuser; > If you are using Windows, go to https://hexchat.github.io/downloads.html and download the version for your architecture.
19:25 TR Bot; Downloads HexChat
19:25 techuser; Do not use the Microsoft Store download link, it has misleading price set, so users who don't pay much attention and have a payment method attached can accidentally pay for it.
19:26 starstreak; i don't use windows, i use arch linucks btw
19:26 techuser; I was targeting Windows users primarily
19:26 starstreak; oh ok, fair enough
19:27 starstreak; https://konversation.kde.org/
19:27 TR Bot; Konversation
19:28 starstreak; konversation pretty much behaves exactly like hexchat
19:29 techuser; how about resource usage?
19:30 starstreak; well, hexchat is using 44MB of ram right now
19:30 starstreak; i dont know about konversation
19:30 techuser; Luis64_gamer realized HexChat crashes for him when he runs heavy stuff
19:30 techuser; I told him about XChat-SE which works. But it turned out it is a GPL violation, and I couldn't contact the developer because technical difficulties.
19:31 starstreak; macOS doesn't have a lot of options either
19:31 starstreak; you could connect to irc through adium, you could use irssi and weechat (thanks to homebrew), and there was no hexchat
19:31 starstreak; there was some janky version of xchat that was free on the app store
19:34 techuser; is gpl-violations abandoned? They killed their mailing lists and there are no signs it is still alive
19:34 starstreak; sounds abandoned
19:37 techuser; I wonder if they participate in 32-bit discrimination
19:38 techuser; the links from the downloads page are 64-bit. No 32-bit.
19:39 starstreak; i used 16-bit mIRC with windows 3.11, it was fun getting that to work in dosbox-x
19:39 techuser; going one directory up says 404
19:39 techuser; I will try replacing win64 with win32
19:40 starstreak; you're using windows?
19:40 techuser; Luis64_gamer does
19:40 starstreak; why 32-bit, 64-bit goes back 20 years
19:40 techuser; iirc he is running a 64-bit Windows version, but it is still a concern
19:41 techuser; that stuff is worsening all the time, calling this "progress"
19:41 techuser; fuck the fake progress
19:41 starstreak; he could probably run the latest mIRC
19:41 techuser; stupid devilopers not knowing how to write code or even paid to write bad code
19:41 techuser; he runs XChat SE
19:41 techuser; which is a GPL violation
19:42 techuser; and I couldn't contact the author because the IRC server blocks Tor, and the email address doesn't accept my email, saying I'm a Tor node, even though I'm not

22:22 MinceR; what about the spiders?
22:22 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean theyll probably all go work for microsoft at some point
22:23 highest_cubist_thrills; but the thing is, this is a visual project
22:23 MinceR; :(
22:23 frog; and too, some blockers with tcc-toolchain remain, which i am not willing to hack on a gentoo/gnu based development host anymore
22:23 highest_cubist_thrills; its not liks a quilt made out of spider webs is going to be useful for anything
22:23 highest_cubist_thrills; (kind of like...)
22:23 highest_cubist_thrills; it would just be cool to see the spiders fill up the squares

22:23 MinceR; the spiders might not like their neighbors very much

22:25 highest_cubist_thrills; and the peta would be all pissy about it
22:25 frog; too, in parallel, moving to Oasis is blocked, by components over there which i don't accept, again related to kernel, libc and toolchain
