00:00 DaemonFC; It's all coming out the back end into some crook's bank account and gets moved to Panama and then they flee the country before anyone figures out what really happened.
00:00 DaemonFC; Or they do what places like Celsius have done.
00:00 DaemonFC; Commit bankruptcy fraud to keep the creditors from figuring it out for a little while, and then flee the country.
00:01 DaemonFC; Mr. "I put $60,000 in Celsius and have $1,000 in my bank account and have my mortgage company breathing down my neck!" doesn't get paid back.
00:08 DaemonFC; You had $60,000 worth of boloney, Mister!
00:08 DaemonFC; You should have put it in the bank and not some San Francisco nonsense next door to Mr. GULAG.
00:09 starstreak; the one thing DaemonFC's website needs is super large text in order to visualize the insanity
00:09 DaemonFC; The goal of a Ponzi is that it sounds very reasonable to a person who doesn't understand exactly what the fuck you're talking about.
00:10 DaemonFC; And they don't know what you're talking about because it's a bunch of malarkey.
00:11 DaemonFC; Crypto "currency" falls nicely in there. MARISOL is very narcissistic and provincial, which is just what they were looking for.
00:11 DaemonFC; "I have money! That make me important woman! I sophisticated investor! I deserve more thing!"
00:12 DaemonFC; And of course it doesn't. It makes her trash with money.
00:12 DaemonFC; She escaped the slums and managed to pass the nursing exam. That alone would be commendable.
00:12 DaemonFC; But of course that won't satisfy someone like her.
00:14 starstreak; linucks
00:15 starstreak; i bet there are many reasons why firefox runs faster than brave
00:16 immibis; wait until the global financial system collapses and so does cryptocurrency, but then cryptocurrency is somewhat transferable into the new world order, and dollars aren't
00:16 immibis; they're predicting the UK pound sterling will collapse within 12 months or so
00:16 immibis; nobody will want pounds
00:19 DaemonFC; Crypto pretty much only has any actual value to the extent that it is exchangeable into real money.
00:19 DaemonFC; But this is not a guarantee at any particular exchange rate. Not even close.
00:19 starstreak; DaemonFC's article about chrome is decent but it doesn't really touch on technical reasons to use firefox
00:19 DaemonFC; So you run into the distinct possibility that you'll lose damned near everything with it.
00:19 starstreak; of course he uses seamonkey lol

00:20 starstreak; running some lame browser from years ago and wonders why nothing works
00:20 DaemonFC; I don't like Firefox either. It's simply less awful than Chrome.
00:20 DaemonFC; Most things work, at least after Fedora patches the shit out of it.
00:20 DaemonFC; The upstream binaries are a mess.
00:20 immibis; DaemonFC: even the ability to exchange real money into real money isn't guaranteed. Best to diversify.
00:20 starstreak; I just switched back to firefox and was impressed with the speed of everything
00:21 DaemonFC; I tried to direct some of the developers to Fedora's patches that make things quite a lot better and they kind of flailed their arms around as to when or if they'll upstream any of them.
00:21 DaemonFC; SeaMonkey is.....a bit stodgy perhaps, but the GUI of these "modern" Internet applications is just horrendous.
00:22 DaemonFC; It's not just a "appeals to the least common denominator" problem. It's "Assume that EVERY user will have shit for brains and that this problem should, in fact, be impossible to set straight if that's not true.".
00:23 DaemonFC; It's like Apple products.
00:26 DaemonFC; Billionaire News: "The Federal Reserve plans to hike interest rates until 6 million people in America who are working lose their jobs because taxing the rich to get inflation under control is unthinkable."
00:26 DaemonFC; WGN News: "Here's what kind of grass the football team uses this year."
00:26 starstreak; i like macOS
00:27 immibis; DaemonFC: two different government departments, mind you. The Fed controls how much money there is, but not where it is. Congress controls where it is.
00:27 DaemonFC; Yeah, not even that guy in Chicago that somehow survived nearly half his brain being destroyed with a railrod spike would have recovered and wanted to use a Mac.
00:27 DaemonFC; That's where education was in this country back then though. :)
00:27 starstreak; sometimes i get my macos fix by hooking up my macbook to an external monitor (internal is dead)
00:27 DaemonFC; Now it's herp derp if this thing has more than three buttons I can't use it derp.
00:28 DaemonFC; And that's without any physical brain damage, apparently.
00:28 DaemonFC; Sad.
00:28 starstreak; macos isn't as fast as linux either
00:28 DaemonFC; MinceR, ^

00:33 psydruid; lol
00:33 DaemonFC; Yeah, it's because they don't care.
00:33 psydruid; macOS is also buggy
00:33 DaemonFC; If nothing ever broke down, got slower and slower, and stopped running new software for precisely NO REASON AT ALL, you wouldn't buy their latest shit.
00:34 starstreak; i need macos to put music on my iphone
00:34 DaemonFC; Breaking when it still has that new car smell, yet being out of warranty because it's a battery car and of course it is, is the car industry's wet dream.
00:34 *Noisytoot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

00:35 *Noisytoot (~noisytoot@tkbibjhmbkvb8.irc) has joined #techrights
00:35 DaemonFC; Now the New York Times writes articles going "Well of course electric cars are shit, and you should stop expecting to drive 300-400 miles on a charge or trying to get the battery above 30% after it's been plugged in for 10 hours.
00:36 DaemonFC; "Where do you really need to get to after laying out $140,000 on it anyway?"
00:36 immibis; DaemonFC: if you're paying $140k for a car that's a you problem
00:37 DaemonFC; I only have to fill up my Buick about once every four weeks or so. That's despite driving it every day. If I want to, I can make it from near Wisconsin to near Kentucky and still have gas left.
00:37 DaemonFC; When I need to fill it completely up, it takes less than 3.5 minutes to fill the tank, and I don't have to worry where I'll do it at.
00:38 DaemonFC; And there's no $14,000 gas tank they don't make anymore that needs replaced every 5 years.
00:38 starstreak; linucks
00:39 DaemonFC; It's also not a hybrid, so if someone gets their catalytic converter ripped out and has a $1,900 repair bill before they can pass emissions again, it'll be the Prius parked next to me.
00:40 CrystalMath; sometimes i just get "No result." from duckduckgo
00:40 DaemonFC; "What's wrong? Don'tcha want to join us all in Hell?" says everyone around me.
00:40 DaemonFC; MinceR, ^
00:40 CrystalMath; for any input
00:41 DaemonFC; Some people who get their catalytic converter stolen, pay the $1,900 to fix it, get it stolen again next week.
00:41 DaemonFC; That's what you get for driving a hybrid and painting a target on yourself.

00:43 techuser; ProtonMail is even worse shit
00:43 DaemonFC; They came out and got the guy really fast.

02:09 XRevan86; Both has two words in their name.
02:09 XRevan86; But also four words in the extended name.
02:09 highest_cubist_thrills; a lot of people liked it, but the west lied about how many
02:09 XRevan86; FOSS and USSR. Likeness confirmed.
02:09 highest_cubist_thrills; it was invaded by germans, but still managed to exist for a while longer
02:09 highest_cubist_thrills; and it no longer exists
02:09 XRevan86; Also both have "SS" in the name.
02:10 highest_cubist_thrills; free software doesnt have ss in the name
02:10 XRevan86; FOSS and USSR do.
02:10 highest_cubist_thrills; foss is even more like the ussr
02:10 highest_cubist_thrills; it has gulags and propaganda and killed off all the real revolutionaries
02:11 highest_cubist_thrills; plus like you said, it has "ss" in it
02:11 XRevan86; Who's the Trotsky of FOSS?
02:11 highest_cubist_thrills; that would be telling
02:11 highest_cubist_thrills; but i know who
02:11 highest_cubist_thrills; actually, i only have half an answer
02:11 highest_cubist_thrills; i can tell you who is half of the trotsky of foss
02:12 highest_cubist_thrills; but that wouldnt actually answer your question
02:12 DaemonFC; General Patton was destroyed by politicians for nailing it about the Russians.
02:12 DaemonFC; Should have ganged up on them while we were in Europe anyway.
02:12 DaemonFC; Driven them out.
02:13 DaemonFC; A lot of unpleasantness could have been avoided.
02:13 highest_cubist_thrills; foccc
02:13 highest_cubist_thrills; free openly compromised computer code
02:14 DaemonFC; The worst and most inefficient parts of the US economy are either state-owned, state-chartered, or heavily state-regulated.
02:15 DaemonFC; The Roosevelts were basically Communists in all of the worst ways and the worst of it survived to this day.
02:16 schestowitz[TR]; Communists is a dog whistle
02:16 schestowitz[TR]; use more useful term
02:16 DaemonFC; With that being said, Truman was a lot worse.
02:16 highest_cubist_thrills; no one said communists
02:16 schestowitz[TR]; US is not "Communists"
02:16 starstreak; I'm a communist btw
02:16 highest_cubist_thrills; literally no one used the word
02:16 schestowitz[TR]; what happens in the US can be described mroe clearly
02:16 DaemonFC; I'm skeptical about whether the US would have used nuclear weapons on Japan had Roosevelt not died when he did.
02:16 schestowitz[TR]; in class terms
02:16 highest_cubist_thrills; what kind of communist
02:16 schestowitz[TR]; and passage of capital
02:17 starstreak; actually i'd have to say im more of an ansoc than a commie
02:17 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], A lot of it is Communist in the sense that most Communist states use that term.
02:17 DaemonFC; State planning of large parts of the economy = disaster.
02:17 highest_cubist_thrills; at least youre honest
02:17 schestowitz[TR]; that's not what communism is
02:17 highest_cubist_thrills; in ansoc russia, bread conquors you
02:18 schestowitz[TR]; it might be a side effect
02:18 schestowitz[TR]; the US sold itself
02:18 schestowitz[TR]; to few people
02:18 DaemonFC; Much of the Libertarian platform is correct.
02:18 schestowitz[TR]; it's not the state owning everything
02:18 DaemonFC; State subsidies into the economy and over-regulation cause most of our economic problems.
02:18 starstreak; DaemonFC voted for Ron Paul
02:18 schestowitz[TR]; United States of Waltons ~= Communism
02:19 highest_cubist_thrills; i would like ansoc if it started accomplishing what its supposed to, stopped failing horribly and stopped making ticky tacky little cults left and right
02:19 highest_cubist_thrills; no sarcasm.
02:19 DaemonFC; I don't think the Federal Reserve should exist as it is.
02:19 DaemonFC; It's caused wat more economic harm than was even possible during the Free Banking Era.

02:20 starstreak; why hate on ansoc
02:20 schestowitz[TR]; don't try to sound like a low-grade meme
02:20 schestowitz[TR]; it's not communism ruining the US enconomy
02:20 DaemonFC; At least with the market making the decisions on investment and "take it or leave it" interest rates, things get way less screwed up than the Fed keeping benchmark rates at zero by subsidizing stock buybacks and federal overspending.
02:21 highest_cubist_thrills; almost exclusively for the reasons just stated
02:21 DaemonFC; Moreover, screwing up the housing market.
02:21 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean, there are still worse things
02:21 highest_cubist_thrills; for example, tankies
02:21 DaemonFC; With up up and away housing prices that are only possible due to low interest rates.
02:21 DaemonFC; Which are entirely fake and unsustainable.
02:21 highest_cubist_thrills; but if you put ansocs in charge, tankies wont be far behind
02:21 highest_cubist_thrills; i realise the entire notion of "ansocs in charge" is amusing
02:21 highest_cubist_thrills; but that is what happens...
02:22 DaemonFC; The Fed has locked an entire generation, now two, out of home ownership, unless they inherit a house that happens to be paid off.
02:22 starstreak; highest_cubist_thrills, what are you if you aren't an ansoc or tankie
02:22 highest_cubist_thrills; then hopefully youre not a capitalist either
02:22 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR]> it's not communism ruining the US enconomy
02:22 highest_cubist_thrills; i read that wrong
02:22 highest_cubist_thrills; i read "what if you aren't an ansoc or tankie"
02:22 DaemonFC; starstreak didn't understand me when I said why I wanted perverse incentives for single mothers to end.
02:23 highest_cubist_thrills; but you asked something else
02:23 DaemonFC; It creates a no punishment environment for bad behavior that leads to rampant crime and social rot.
02:23 highest_cubist_thrills; there are a few, no
02:23 highest_cubist_thrills; it was the marxists that coined "tankie:
02:23 highest_cubist_thrills; to refer to the stalinists
02:23 highest_cubist_thrills; then there are a variety of those
02:23 DaemonFC; Most people, without the subsidies, would look at how much worse off they're getting each time they reproduce and STOP after 1-2.
02:24 highest_cubist_thrills; its like that scene with cheech marin where he talks about how they have every kind of commie
02:24 highest_cubist_thrills; except he didnt say commie
02:24 DaemonFC; It's the comfort of knowing that all they have to do is run down to the welfare office and say they've gotten pregnant again that makes crime in Chicago so bad.
02:24 DaemonFC; Because it leads to generational poverty on steroids.
02:25 DaemonFC; When you subsidize something you get more of it. We subsidize illegitimate bastard children who pick up a gun and carjack people at age 8, and we....get a lot more of it.
02:25 DaemonFC; And I won't apologize for that because it's factually correct.
02:26 DaemonFC; Barely old enough to touch the gas pedal with their foot and they're out there with a Glock ordering people out of their car and making off with it.
02:26 DaemonFC; When the police catch the kid, what can they do? Nothing. That's why gangs recruit them that young!
02:27 DaemonFC; And they have the Glock of course because the FOID act stopped them from getting the oh wait shit, it didn't stop anything.
02:27 DaemonFC; Leftist FAIL
02:28 DaemonFC; The fact that the government subsidizes moral decay and then passes gun laws that only send good people who never meant any harm anyway to prison while Thugnificent is running around terrorizing Waukegan with an Uzi may have been lost on a lot of Democrats.
02:28 DaemonFC; But not on me.
02:29 DaemonFC; YOU CAN HAVE MY GUN, WHEN YOU PRY IT OUT OF MY COLD, DEAD HANDS!
02:29 DaemonFC; And the only reason I don't have bumper stickers on my car is because those are police magnets.
02:29 DaemonFC; What do you think happens to people who have pro-gun bumper stickers when they get pulled over, in Illinois?
02:30 DaemonFC; The cop starts either asking about guns or gets psyched up to just go ahead and shoot.
02:30 DaemonFC; It's a really bad idea.

02:36 XRevan86; DaemonFC: That assumption is correct.
02:36 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: thanks!
02:36 DaemonFC; The guy has the "You can have my gun when you pry it out of my cold, dead hands." bumper sticker and the Russian paratrooper pries it out of his cold, dead hand.
02:36 DaemonFC; I saw that when I was like 6 and thought it was funnier than hell.
02:37 DaemonFC; Horrible movie, but a cult classic because of the red scare nonsense.
02:37 DaemonFC; Even in Ukraine, most of the cold, dead hands that guns are being pried out of are Russian ones.

02:46 schestowitz[TR]; on average, XRevan86, those countries (I think) are happier than people in the countries that use that term
02:47 schestowitz[TR]; happiness has more than wealth to it
02:47 schestowitz[TR]; and US culture died decades ago
02:47 TR News; Yesterday's bulletin is now ready! : http://techrights.org/txt-archives/techrights-2022-09-10.txt | gemini://gemini.techrights.org/tr_text_version/techrights-2022-09-10.txt (tentative address, to work an hour from now)
02:47 schestowitz[TR]; now Us culture has nothing to it except consumerism cattle with maxed up credit cards (debt)
02:48 schestowitz[TR]; on proxac oir something
02:48 schestowitz[TR]; I mean, how ELSE can you sleep at night\?
02:48 DaemonFC; Bankruptcy court!
02:48 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR]> and US culture died decades ago
02:48 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], That's sort of why I don't associate with many people.
02:48 DaemonFC; We have nothing in common.
02:48 schestowitz[TR]; smart move, I think
02:48 XRevan86; schestowitz: The countries I have in mind are: Iran, Afghanistan/Taliban, DPRK, Turkmenistan, Burma/Myanmar, ~Hungary
02:48 schestowitz[TR]; my sister complains about how people are
02:48 highest_cubist_thrills; "and US culture died decades ago" a string of words without meaning
02:48 schestowitz[TR]; not even phoninh back
02:49 schestowitz[TR]; *phoninh
02:49 XRevan86; Belarus, ~Kazakhstan
02:49 highest_cubist_thrills; culture exists everywhere
02:49 schestowitz[TR]; yeah, sort of
02:49 DaemonFC; I would hook up with people 18-well, maybe a few years older than me.
02:49 schestowitz[TR]; but look at cohesion
02:49 highest_cubist_thrills; it is absolutely suppressed in some places
02:49 DaemonFC; Things are just impossible.
02:49 schestowitz[TR]; US is now an island of "red" and "blue"
02:49 highest_cubist_thrills; no, it is not
02:49 schestowitz[TR]; and those two became islands to each other
02:49 highest_cubist_thrills; us media is
02:49 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
02:50 highest_cubist_thrills; if that is what you believe the us is
02:50 schestowitz[TR]; it's part of it
02:50 DaemonFC; The dating material is at least my age or older, what little there was of it. The bait for drama that can't do simple math and yet thinks very highly of itself is everyone younger than you.
02:50 DaemonFC; So it's pick your poison.
02:50 XRevan86; Russia is like that too I suppose, with one colour (red I suppose) outlawed / in dissent.
02:50 schestowitz[TR]; highest_cubist_thrills: we probably agree except on semantics
02:50 DaemonFC; Do you go with attractive younger men who have no intellect at all (18-about 30), or older and try to start a relationship?
02:50 DaemonFC; It's really pick a lane.
02:51 DaemonFC; And after 35 years, I picked a lane.
02:51 highest_cubist_thrills; if you said american media is worthless and uniform and gives the rest of the world a false impression about americans
02:51 highest_cubist_thrills; then i would agree
02:51 highest_cubist_thrills; if you said it even gives americans a false impression of americans, i would agree with that too
02:51 schestowitz[TR]; us media is not unform
02:51 schestowitz[TR]; it iks divisive
02:51 schestowitz[TR]; and does not report new
02:51 schestowitz[TR]; it's pushing "parties"
02:51 highest_cubist_thrills; it is uniformly divisive
02:52 schestowitz[TR]; *news
02:52 DaemonFC; Trying to form a meaningful connection with people is getting to be more of a fruitless endeavor each year.
02:52 highest_cubist_thrills; when i said uniform, i didnt mean it doesnt have a fake left and a fake right
02:52 DaemonFC; Because the floor that society is built on is rotting and the support beams have fallen out.
02:52 schestowitz[TR]; i c
02:52 highest_cubist_thrills; only that it is uniformly divisive
02:52 highest_cubist_thrills; there is nothing useful or non-divisive or honest in it
02:52 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I wonder what's going on in Japan that's made people so lonely.
02:52 DaemonFC; So very very lonely. I know what's doing it here.
02:53 DaemonFC; People are idiots, or worse, completely nuts.
02:53 highest_cubist_thrills; its not uniformly us or uniformly them it is uniformly us-vs-them
02:53 highest_cubist_thrills; coke vs pepsi
02:53 highest_cubist_thrills; the only brands you need to know
02:53 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I thought Indiana was bad.
02:53 DaemonFC; But the sort of depravity I see in Illinois every day....
02:53 highest_cubist_thrills; cake or death
02:54 DaemonFC; And I know, hey, let's make fun of the guy who says depravity, but I mean, we're talking corpses with bullet holes in them.
02:54 DaemonFC; On the ground.
02:54 DaemonFC; Waiting for someone to take them away.
02:54 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: Dobry Cola and New Cola?
02:54 DaemonFC; While people are inside the store shopping.
02:54 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/gun-deaths-wars/
02:54 TR Bot; FACT CHECK: Were There More Gun Deaths Since 1968 Than Deaths in All American Wars?
02:54 DaemonFC; We certainly didn't have any of that going on in Indiana.
02:54 highest_cubist_thrills; where have i heard of dobry cola
02:54 schestowitz[TR]; ""Since 1968, more Americans have been killed by guns than have been killed in all wars in U.S. history.
02:55 highest_cubist_thrills; oh, hahaha
02:55 DaemonFC; I suppose you'd rather that they were knifed.
02:55 DaemonFC; Or pushed out of windows.
02:55 DaemonFC; That's Putin's thing. Having people pushed out of windows.
02:55 highest_cubist_thrills; Since 1968, more Americans have been killed by guns than have been killed in all wars in U.S. history. <- that sounds like a flawed metric from the beginning
02:55 DaemonFC; XRevan86, I think you should stop talking, sir.
02:55 DaemonFC; ;)
02:55 DaemonFC; I'd watch out for that window, sir.
02:56 highest_cubist_thrills; like saying more people have died from cigarettes than cancer
02:56 DaemonFC; "Wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend. You can, cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in."
02:56 DaemonFC; What's that? :)
02:56 DaemonFC; Too soon.
02:57 XRevan86; DaemonFC: That risk is genuinely there.
02:57 highest_cubist_thrills; i would definitely want more details
02:57 XRevan86; Hopefully I'm enough of an Elusive Joe.
02:57 DaemonFC; That sounds like our president.
02:58 XRevan86; DaemonFC: No, he's pretty much the opposite of an Elusive Joe :).
02:58 highest_cubist_thrills; im trying to understand how dobry cola works, sanctions wise
02:58 DaemonFC; Elusive Joe has been eluding the Hunter Biden scandals while failing to elucidate his public speeches.
02:59 highest_cubist_thrills; as far as i know, the sanctions are based on who owns what and where... not what they call it
02:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.85 k/sec., IPFS upstream 32.00 average k/sec., average swarm size 156.18
02:59 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: A local Russian branch/bottler of Coca-Cola was sold away apparently.
02:59 TR News; Two reasons you should quit social control media for WRITING: 1) it biases what TOPICS you cover. 2) it biases HOW you cover those topics (they call it "algospeak"; optimising for hashtags, engagement etc.), e.g. for fear of censorship. Two reasons you should quit social control media for READING: 1) censorship and 2) propaganda by the platform owners. You're manipulated on all counts. QUIT THE CAGE.
02:59 highest_cubist_thrills; so coca cola would still be subject to sanctions even if they called it putin cola
02:59 highest_cubist_thrills; A local Russian branch/bottler of Coca-Cola was sold away apparently. <- oh of course, just like tasty period
03:00 starstreak; open sores
03:00 schestowitz[TR]; opencola.org
03:00 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: And just like Starbucks Stars Coffee.
03:00 highest_cubist_thrills; so you cant sell coca cola in russia, but you can tell the bottling plant to russia :)
03:00 highest_cubist_thrills; sell
03:01 schestowitz[TR]; FANTAsctic
03:02 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: As long as they can get the ingridients.
03:02 starstreak; RMS drinks pepsi and not opencola, seems like a hypocrite to me
03:02 DaemonFC; Diet Fanta....don't you want a Diet Fanta? It won't make your ass so big-a? Don't you want a Diet Fanta?
03:02 highest_cubist_thrills; RMS drinks pepsi and not opencola, seems like a hypocrite to me <- soft drinks != software
03:03 highest_cubist_thrills; also he never supported open anything
03:03 starstreak; i only eat or drink foods in which the recipe is creative commons

03:03 DaemonFC; I started singing that when a Fanta commercial was playing in 2002 when I was helping my ex clean the house.
03:03 XRevan86; starstreak: So no public domain ones?
03:03 highest_cubist_thrills; most importantly, he isnt against people using non-free software
03:03 starstreak; XRevan86, public domain too
03:03 highest_cubist_thrills; he is against people writing it
03:04 highest_cubist_thrills; you shouldnt write non-free software
03:04 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I can't drink Fresca anymore.
03:04 IPFS; IPFS local node stats (bandwidth since last reset) calculated. TotalIn: 30 GB TotalOut: 8.0 GB
03:04 DaemonFC; It has grapefruit juice in it.
03:04 highest_cubist_thrills; ideally you wouldnt use non-free software either, but its immoral to write it
03:05 highest_cubist_thrills; if he started offering pepsi as non-free software, then he would be a hypocrite
03:05 IPFS; New daily bulletin is now being generated and assembled.
03:05 DaemonFC; I think Stallman should back away from the Pepsi.
03:06 highest_cubist_thrills; its a known fact that stallman will use non-free software for trivial tasks, such as looking up something online (but not as a habit)
03:07 DaemonFC; Putin Cola. The secret ingredient is Ricin.
03:07 highest_cubist_thrills; most people who call him a hypocrite either dont know his position, or dont care what it is
03:08 highest_cubist_thrills; very few people will ever go to the trouble he has though, to do what they think is the right thing to do
03:08 highest_cubist_thrills; nor will many people ever get so much shit for being so unhypocritical.
03:09 XRevan86; starstreak: `$ uname -r / 5.19.8-1-default`
03:09 starstreak; highest_cubist_thrills, i think its hypocritical to demand source code when he doesn't demand recipes
03:09 XRevan86; starstreak: Your move.
03:09 starstreak; [britney@archbtw ~]$ uname -r
03:09 starstreak; 5.19.7-arch1-1
03:09 starstreak; hmmm
03:09 starstreak; u got .8
03:10 highest_cubist_thrills; i think youre confusing recipes with software
03:10 DaemonFC; https://scontent-ams2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/305764345_2300375853459129_5365012128820288951_n.jpg?_nc_cat=1&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=a26aad&_nc_ohc=3lABv3oZh0UAX_MZaeI&_nc_ht=scontent-ams2-1.xx&oh=00_AT8Vivjy8BC6Ngww9rycy7FvXS8wFkfKe1vkD9_BTBkePQ&oe=63231E68
03:10 highest_cubist_thrills; when you stop doing that, you might realise why it probably isnt hypocrisy
03:10 highest_cubist_thrills; they have plenty in common
03:11 starstreak; highest_cubist_thrills, source code is just a recipe for software
03:11 highest_cubist_thrills; thats clever, but not intellectually honest
03:11 highest_cubist_thrills; there are applicable differences, and if you want me to outline them for you, i dont think youve justified the charge of hypocrisy

03:37 starstreak; highest_cubist_thrills, you should make a Theo De Raadt sound board
03:37 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: The reason is the same: how to put a quote and a reply into one IRC message (one line).
03:37 highest_cubist_thrills; whats a sound board (other than a high end alternative to a chip on a mainboard)
03:37 highest_cubist_thrills; like 4chan is an image board? but for sound?
03:38 starstreak; a sound board is a board full of buttons that you click to listen to one liners
03:38 highest_cubist_thrills; funnily enough
03:38 highest_cubist_thrills; when i was in high school
03:38 highest_cubist_thrills; i wanted to get a bunch of chips that would hold one sample
03:38 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: Them Matrices and Discords have rich text replies, and the bridge has to convert that into a line of plain text in a way that looks good.
03:39 highest_cubist_thrills; the bridge has to convert that into a line of plain text <- you dont mean actual rtf, just "rich text" right?
03:39 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: Anonymous but for sound?
03:39 highest_cubist_thrills; i dont think so
03:39 highest_cubist_thrills; but that was what i imagined at first
03:40 highest_cubist_thrills; also obvious logical problem is obvious-- sound is far less anonymous than images and text
03:40 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: Not rtf, just that a message can have a property "reply".

03:43 XRevan86; Well, it sounds like a server thing anyway, as it should forbid the other side from sending the forbidden message type.
03:43 highest_cubist_thrills; oh okay

03:47 highest_cubist_thrills; you said it was about the server. i got that part, but i was saying ORIGINALLY i imagined the client not being ablt to do anything about it
03:47 highest_cubist_thrills; in other words
03:47 highest_cubist_thrills; you can "just not listen" :)
03:47 highest_cubist_thrills; but your free client cant do shit about it
03:47 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean people have been tryign to remove systemd from debian for years
03:48 highest_cubist_thrills; thats the only connection
03:48 highest_cubist_thrills; but its a connection between actual debian and the imagined telegram client that makes you listen to shit you dont want to
03:48 XRevan86; The free client can parse the message out but that's not in any way more useful than just ignoring the messages.
03:48 highest_cubist_thrills; but that's not in any way more useful than just ignoring the messages <- so spam is a non-issue on that platform?
03:48 XRevan86; It's more about that the sender will expect the message to be heard after they sent it.
03:48 highest_cubist_thrills; i thought we were talking about audio originally
03:49 highest_cubist_thrills; being able to mute audio isnt useless
03:49 highest_cubist_thrills; i think there were about three miscommunications in a row that got us here :)
03:49 highest_cubist_thrills; not just one or two

04:35 DaemonFC; If you look at the primary, there were about 20,000 more votes for Republicans than there were for the Democrats. It's a matter of getting them out to vote and getting them to vote for Curran, and the Republicans have this one in the bag.
04:35 DaemonFC; Bye bye FOID Act.
04:36 DaemonFC; If you look at how the prosecutors use the FOID Act, it's useless. Right? It gets guns out of the hands of almost zero criminals. It stops no crime. But the damage is very real, because when they charge a criminal with the FOID Act, there's always at least 5-6 other crimes on the indictment. Actual crimes other than not having a card that "permits" you a Constiuttional right.
04:37 DaemonFC; When they charge FOID by itself, it's always some guy that has no criminal record, they just got him with a FOID Card violation and stopped no crime because he wasn't planning to attack anyone.
04:37 DaemonFC; He didn't have drugs, he didn't shoot anyone. He probably just let the card expire.
04:38 DaemonFC; And now we have to stop and have a trial, which costs a million dollars, and put him in prison, and take a husband and father out of the home and ruin the lives of his children.
04:39 DaemonFC; That's pretty much all the Democrats do with these laws.

13:38 highest_cubist_thrills; fortunately some people realise that, like leah
13:38 *Noisytoot has quit (Quit: ZNC 1.8.2 - https://znc.in)
13:38 highest_cubist_thrills; its too bad stallman doesnt see it
13:38 highest_cubist_thrills; stallman does see it, slightly. but he argues against the idea about as much as he sees the need
13:39 highest_cubist_thrills; like "yes, someday, but not today"
13:39 highest_cubist_thrills; thats sort of like saying "we will defend ourselves after they kill us". but thats the part he DOESNT see
13:40 highest_cubist_thrills; computer chips are being fabricated in carparks by hobbyists
13:40 highest_cubist_thrills; the time for free hardware to matter is now
13:40 highest_cubist_thrills; it will only be more difficult later. why would later be better then? the answer is stallman is wrong
13:41 highest_cubist_thrills; i can tell you who also thinks later is better (for arbitrary, non-reasons)
13:41 highest_cubist_thrills; but it would make no difference to say

13:42 *Noisytoot (~noisytoot@freenode/user/Noisytoot) has joined #techrights
13:42 highest_cubist_thrills; since free software is a dead movement, free hardware might as well rise imo
13:42 *Noisytoot (~noisytoot@sourcehut/user/noisytoot) has joined #techrights
13:43 highest_cubist_thrills; however, free hardware will someday (and once again, today is better than someday) realise that they still need free software
13:43 highest_cubist_thrills; a lot of people will think, incorrectly, that if the hardware is free the software neednt be, because hardware trumps software
13:43 highest_cubist_thrills; this is the same mistake stallman makes today, but from the other side of it
13:44 highest_cubist_thrills; so yeah, free hardware will still need free software

13:44 highest_cubist_thrills; leah knows that, so in a very technical and specific way, leah is smarter than stallman
13:45 highest_cubist_thrills; but thats tongue in cheek. i still think stallman is one of the smartest people who ever lived
13:45 highest_cubist_thrills; (just also in a specific way)
13:45 highest_cubist_thrills; leah is smart as hell too
13:46 highest_cubist_thrills; the comparison is not full on, but its not a joke, i admire both
13:46 *Noisytoot has quit (Quit: ZNC 1.8.2 - https://znc.in)
13:46 loner; highest_cubist_thrills: what leah is involved with isn't "free hardware"

13:48 techuser; like web browsers or systemd
13:48 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean
13:48 highest_cubist_thrills; im wary of leahs approach to firmware
13:48 highest_cubist_thrills; cautious is an even better word
13:48 highest_cubist_thrills; its unorthodox, but more importantly, its mixed and a compromise
13:49 highest_cubist_thrills; however
13:49 highest_cubist_thrills; the orthodox approach is likely to fail, but it probably has already
13:49 highest_cubist_thrills; open source was a compromise for the sake of compromise, posing as a needed one
13:50 *Noisytoot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
13:50 highest_cubist_thrills; im very open to the idea that leahs approach to firmware is (possibly) and actually needed
13:50 highest_cubist_thrills; open source came well before peak software freedom was reached
13:50 highest_cubist_thrills; leahs approach may come after peak free firmware was reached
13:50 highest_cubist_thrills; thats a very important difference
13:51 highest_cubist_thrills; leahs approach is an effort to solve a real problem
13:51 highest_cubist_thrills; open source is a bicycle for fish

20:06 highest_cubist_thrills; i dont mind wayland, i kinda like it <- i think you just enjoy finding new stuff to troll me with :)
20:07 starstreak; i do actually like wayland
20:07 highest_cubist_thrills; even so
20:07 highest_cubist_thrills; but my issue with wayland of course
20:08 starstreak; its lightweight
20:08 highest_cubist_thrills; is theyre fgollowing the
20:08 highest_cubist_thrills; theyre following the new FILO development paradigm
20:08 highest_cubist_thrills; like systemd
20:08 starstreak; FILO?
20:08 highest_cubist_thrills; free in license only
20:08 highest_cubist_thrills; some people call it "osps" or "open source proprietary software"
20:09 highest_cubist_thrills; you have the source code, but it doesnt matter
20:09 highest_cubist_thrills; because the source is useless except to the developers
20:09 highest_cubist_thrills; like you have the source to linux
20:09 MinceR; waylandows was designed only with lennart's use cases in mind
20:09 highest_cubist_thrills; doesnt matter, linux will never be forked
20:09 MinceR; so it probably still doesn't support FPS games properly
20:09 highest_cubist_thrills; <MinceR> waylandows was designed only with lennart's use cases in mind <- this is what i mean
20:09 MinceR; nor screen sharing
20:10 MinceR; most waylandows implementations depend on systemd, or at least its logind part
20:10 highest_cubist_thrills; its just some fucked up thing to waste time of devs and users alike
20:10 MinceR; and it's not flexible enough
20:10 highest_cubist_thrills; which will ultimately be dumped like everything microsoft ever did
20:10 MinceR; for example, in X, you can restart/replace your window manager with your clients running
20:10 MinceR; in waylandows, you can't
20:10 highest_cubist_thrills; <MinceR> and it's not flexible enough <- its not meant to be
20:10 highest_cubist_thrills; rather, its meant NOT to be
20:10 highest_cubist_thrills; "in waylandows, you can't" <- their slogan
20:10 MinceR; yeah, basically my problem with waylandows is that it's pushed as an X replacement yet it wasn't designed to be as powerful as X
20:10 starstreak; waylandows lol
20:11 highest_cubist_thrills; software designed to fuck up free software gets a big no from me
20:11 highest_cubist_thrills; systemd, waylandos, gnome...
20:11 highest_cubist_thrills; fuck it
20:12 highest_cubist_thrills; freebsd isnt so bad... its not great
20:12 starstreak; steam proton doesn't work in freebsd
20:13 highest_cubist_thrills; points for freebsd
20:13 highest_cubist_thrills; small ones, but hey
20:13 starstreak; i'd want to run windows games in steam
20:13 highest_cubist_thrills; lol
20:14 starstreak; although to be honest, i play games on xbox more than i do on pc
20:14 highest_cubist_thrills; "i use xbox btw"
20:15 starstreak; i love video games
20:15 highest_cubist_thrills; video games are a hell of a drug
20:15 starstreak; you can say that for sure
20:16 loner; MinceR: waylandows requires /dev/input/event to grab keyboard events, circumventing tty handling and permissions enforced by kernel
20:16 loner; on *nix it's pseudo terminals responsibility to expose keyboard
20:16 starstreak; i've been playing a lot of diablo 3 on xbox, trying to get the achievement of getting to level 70 without dying
20:17 loner; and most Xorg ship input modules nowadays, which too insist on /dev/input/event instead of the original xorg keyboard input
20:18 loner; it was possible still, to block at those original xorg input modules without evdev
20:18 loner; however, as a precaution, i too wiped Xorg recently
20:19 loner; haven't got a practically usable widget toolkit anymore anyway
20:19 loner; gtk3 was bad enough, and gtk4 will be the next best greatest shit ever invented for free

21:27 schestowitz[TR]; is this a combination of two bad words?
21:27 schestowitz[TR]; twit and kant?
21:28 DaemonFC; That's like Archer where they keep saying that woman's last name, "Tunt", all the time.
21:28 DaemonFC; Like, you know what they're doing.
21:28 schestowitz[TR]; nono means not good
21:28 schestowitz[TR]; bon no!
21:28 schestowitz[TR]; bono
21:28 schestowitz[TR]; mono means cancer
21:28 schestowitz[TR]; or moneyboy in spanish
21:29 schestowitz[TR]; *monkeyboy
21:29 DaemonFC; That's racist.
21:29 DaemonFC; I'm offended on behalf of everybody.
21:29 highest_cubist_thrills; or moneyboy in spanish *monkeyboy <- that explains your no mo logo
21:29 schestowitz[TR]; bono's mom to the doc

21:31 DaemonFC; The US historically hasn't had very much good public television programming.
21:31 schestowitz[TR]; when?
21:31 DaemonFC; We used to have Sesame Street and Nova, and some others that were okay. Most of it aimed at children, not all. Edutainment.
21:31 schestowitz[TR]; seems iut was good in the 1950s
21:31 schestowitz[TR]; some very good programmes and films
21:31 schestowitz[TR]; US pioneered a lot of TV stuff
21:32 schestowitz[TR]; now it's shit like "reality TV"
21:32 schestowitz[TR]; encouraging people to behave poorly
21:32 DaemonFC; Yeah, and that was when my dad was in the TV hardware industry.
21:32 schestowitz[TR]; and get rewarded
21:32 DaemonFC; Designing better television sets.
21:32 DaemonFC; Making them more reliable with better picture and color control.
21:32 schestowitz[TR]; for abuse, cheating, promiscuity, greed
21:32 DaemonFC; Many sets that he partially designed still work if you turn them on today.
21:33 DaemonFC; Even though they rolled off the assembly line in Indiana in the 1980s and 90s.
21:33 highest_cubist_thrills; ntsc: never twice the same colour
21:33 highest_cubist_thrills; pal: people are lavendar (hehehe)
21:33 highest_cubist_thrills; secam: i dont speak french
21:33 DaemonFC; If you buy a TV set at Walmart today, fully a third of them will not be working a year later.
21:33 highest_cubist_thrills; theres one for secam, but its in english so im sure it doesnt count
21:33 DaemonFC; Very high failure rate. They don't care. They warrant them if it fails within the first 12 months.
21:33 schestowitz[TR]; profit margins could be improved by outsourcing
21:33 DaemonFC; But you go out 5 years and half have failed.
21:33 schestowitz[TR]; people paid the price not in the short run
21:33 schestowitz[TR]; no jobs, low quality
21:34 DaemonFC; People complain "Hey, I just bought this thing two months ago!".
21:34 DaemonFC; And you tell them it was made in China or something and there's the problem.
21:34 DaemonFC; But they don't demand American TV sets that last 40 years as the solution.
21:35 DaemonFC; Because the TV sets that last that long may cost twice as much if anyone started making them here and doing QC on them again.
21:35 schestowitz[TR]; I have a stereo from 1993
21:35 schestowitz[TR]; we still use it
21:35 DaemonFC; And if you don't replace them for 40 years, they don't sell you a TV very often.
21:35 DaemonFC; Maybe two or three in your entire life.
21:35 highest_cubist_thrills; encouraging people to behave poorly <- not just that
21:35 starstreak; i use a 720p tv i got for free
21:35 highest_cubist_thrills; its SO CHEAP to produce
21:36 schestowitz[TR]; the tape, CD, remote don't work
21:36 highest_cubist_thrills; and its stupid and addictive
21:36 schestowitz[TR]; tuner and aux sitll OK
21:36 highest_cubist_thrills; its just drama and bullshit
21:36 highest_cubist_thrills; so is all tv
21:36 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], It's just like the cars. You still see people driving 1970s cars sometimes.
21:36 highest_cubist_thrills; but this is PURE drama and bullshit
21:36 DaemonFC; Rust will take them if you're not careful long before they're not worth fixing.
21:36 DaemonFC; You can do a complete engine tear down and rebuild and get that working again.
21:36 DaemonFC; There's nothing computer controlled on them, no funky sensors.
21:37 schestowitz[TR]; damn, there was an article about this days ago
21:37 schestowitz[TR]; I can't recall ways to find it
21:37 DaemonFC; So it's basically like, no matter how bad the damage is, mechanically, you can fix it and keep using the car.
21:37 DaemonFC; They don't make them that way anymore and there's reasons.
21:37 schestowitz[TR]; it was about how cars today are expensive and don't last long
21:38 schestowitz[TR]; it was a long and detailed article
21:38 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Yeah, $60,000-$80,000 for something that's going completely screwy on you in about 5 years.
21:38 DaemonFC; That's typical.
21:38 DaemonFC; You can throw almost any amount of money you want to in the Buick and not have anything THAT terrible.

21:38 TR Bot; Update: hex-to-bin.py Version 0.0.6 | Didier Stevens
21:38 DaemonFC; Because you also have to get expensive car insurance to satisfy the bank.
21:39 DaemonFC; Which you pay 5-6% interest to, if you have GOOD credit.
21:39 schestowitz[TR]; people who bought EVs have humble piue now
21:39 DaemonFC; Then you have to feed the pig (the government taxes the shit out of new cars).
21:39 schestowitz[TR]; withe energy cshortages

21:40 DaemonFC; The government is a greedy piglet that will suckle your nipples until they've gone bone dry and are chafed.
21:40 DaemonFC; Ron Swanson :)
21:40 schestowitz[TR]; the new from texas was something... abotu temperature control refusing to obey tuhe home owner
21:40 DaemonFC; I have a tax joke for you......the government here is excellent and they spend my tax money wisely. Ha ha ha.
21:41 DaemonFC; I walked up and told that to the city clerk's office in Chicago when I was getting my car's window sticker.
21:41 loner; controlling/limiting air-condition and heating can reduce energy consumption very much, that much, almost all problems solved with climate
21:41 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: you are I are alike in some ways
21:42 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], That episode of Parks and Rec where Swanson is thoroughly unimpressed by the UK.
21:42 schestowitz[TR]; like the use of energy
21:42 DaemonFC; "Oh look, a clock. We don't have those in America."
21:42 schestowitz[TR]; we pay 2-3 times less than other couples

21:42 MinceR; also everything on that day and since
21:42 schestowitz[TR]; my employer makes it hard for me to leave
21:42 schestowitz[TR]; I might not even leave until next year
21:43 MinceR; roach motel?
21:43 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], In general our energy bills are lower than other comparable household units, according to the electric company.
21:44 DaemonFC; But for a few months out of the year (Summer) the usage is about 60% higher.
21:44 DaemonFC; But it spends about 9 months of the year being about 65% lower.
21:44 loner; DaemonFC: how many kWh/year total?
21:45 DaemonFC; Give me a minute to go load their site and check.
21:45 DaemonFC; Of course it's acting up.
21:45 DaemonFC; Azure really did a number on the reliability.
21:46 DaemonFC; It was up like 99.99999% of the time before Microsoft.
21:46 DaemonFC; Now it's just up and down whenever the hell it feels like it.
21:47 schestowitz[TR]; MinceR: very american
21:47 schestowitz[TR]; the signs
21:47 DaemonFC; I don't see much of a national identity in the US anymore.
21:47 DaemonFC; In Illinois, the bulk of the population is not religious.
21:48 DaemonFC; You drive into Indiana and it's Jesus radio and Jesus billboards everywhere.
21:48 schestowitz[TR]; US balkanisatioin
21:48 schestowitz[TR]; here it exists in another sene
21:48 schestowitz[TR]; dialects
21:48 schestowitz[TR]; and foods
21:49 schestowitz[TR]; but the rest is quite uniform
21:49 schestowitz[TR]; the big cities tend to have more "minorities"
21:49 schestowitz[TR]; but the culture is more or less the same
21:49 schestowitz[TR]; there is no "liberal" city
21:49 schestowitz[TR]; and "MAGA" city
21:49 MinceR; 11 224706 < schestowitz[TR]> MinceR: very american
21:49 MinceR; indeed
21:49 schestowitz[TR]; some are maybe made as a part joke
21:50 schestowitz[TR]; by disgruntled store owners
21:50 schestowitz[TR]; small shops
21:50 schestowitz[TR]; when you want to say rude thinkg to people'e face, you immigrate to USA
21:51 schestowitz[TR]; my two siblings are in USA ATM
21:51 schestowitz[TR]; not liking it at all
21:51 DaemonFC; loner, 6023 kWh
21:51 schestowitz[TR]; one is on a business trip to Philadelphia
21:51 DaemonFC; 501.91 per month, average
21:51 loner; DaemonFC: this is an extremely high electricity consumption
21:52 schestowitz[TR]; we still manage to keep our bills around or below 100 a month
21:52 schestowitz[TR]; but the prices keep rising (per unit)
21:52 DaemonFC; I can tell you what the cost is if I look at a bill and figure it out.
21:52 schestowitz[TR]; heat conservation methods is something I ought to do a blog post this winter
21:52 schestowitz[TR]; tips and tricks
21:52 schestowitz[TR]; here they say "eye-eatering power bills"
21:52 loner; in germany you would pay ~2000Euros/year
21:53 schestowitz[TR]; *Watering
21:53 schestowitz[TR]; people here confront energy suppliers
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; they see soaring porofits of energy giants
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; so they know they're being stiffed
21:54 loner; well, energy which doesn't exist cannot be sold nor consumed at any price whatsoever
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; one can protest a biy by minimising consumption
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; regardless of the rates
21:54 loner; non-existing energy cannot be saved either, to safe the planet and climate and god and universe
21:55 loner; that's why german politicians are, how should i say, ready to be sent into the madhouse
21:55 loner; almost all of them
21:56 schestowitz[TR]; a friend of mine paid 250 a month for energy
21:56 loner; because, they intend to increase prices and taxes for non-existent energy
21:56 schestowitz[TR]; just two people,. both working OUTSIDE home
21:56 schestowitz[TR]; not even afctoring int he fuel for the car
21:56 loner; and with non-existent energy, they want to cut down consumption, because this saves the planet and whatnot
21:56 schestowitz[TR]; so you're looking at like 33350 a month just for energy
21:57 schestowitz[TR]; 350
21:57 DaemonFC; 12.841 cents per kWh before taxes and adjustments. 0.0977 cents per kWh adjusted, rounded to the 4th decimal place. Plus state sales tax.
21:57 schestowitz[TR]; for people who barely stay at home
21:57 schestowitz[TR]; you work like an extra day in the week (sans tax) just to pay for energy
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; and drive to work, too
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; as the old jokes ago
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; buy a car to go to the oiffice
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; to earn money to buy a car
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; leave home to go to work
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; to spend all the time not at the home you pay a mortgage on
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; people do irrational things
21:58 DaemonFC; 10.55 cents per kWh, rounded to the third decimal place, after the state and local sales tax.
21:59 schestowitz[TR]; sustaining the things they're too busy to actually USE or ENJOY
21:59 loner; DaemonFC: i had seen data of 35cents/kWh already
21:59 schestowitz[TR]; I get enough light from the monitors usualluy, and they also emit heat
22:00 highest_cubist_thrills; there is no "liberal" city <- no, because america is big on fake progress
22:00 DaemonFC; Without the purchasing adjustment, it would be over 15 cents per kWh by now.
22:00 highest_cubist_thrills; its more of an aesthetic than something political
22:00 highest_cubist_thrills; progressives exist
22:00 schestowitz[TR]; power is about 20 pence kwh here, but rising fast
22:00 highest_cubist_thrills; but theyre not part of the DECOR
22:00 highest_cubist_thrills; the decor is bullshit
22:00 DaemonFC; The nuclear bailout bill says the electric company has to rebate us if prices go high enough that the power would be profitable on its own.
22:00 schestowitz[TR]; the sooner people learn to use less, the better off they'll be later
22:00 highest_cubist_thrills; (and TASTEFUL. and EXPENSIVE)
22:00 DaemonFC; So it claws back some of the bailout money.
22:01 schestowitz[TR]; no more "plasma TVs" and crap like that
22:01 highest_cubist_thrills; i love very little more than getting a million miles away from it
22:01 highest_cubist_thrills; the sooner people learn to use less <- like kde :)
22:01 loner; schestowitz[TR]: intersting, hasn't been your new "King" one of those "eco" guys... if so be prepared for 30pence/kWh, at least
22:01 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: buy outs
22:01 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], 10.5 cents total isn't bad.
22:01 schestowitz[TR]; happens alao in Australia
22:01 schestowitz[TR]; taxpayers bails out copmpanies
22:01 schestowitz[TR]; the money goes to shareholders
22:01 highest_cubist_thrills; uustralia is fascist, no?
22:01 schestowitz[TR]; workers fired regardless
22:02 schestowitz[TR]; prices rise
22:02 DaemonFC; Yeah, ComEd agreed because nobody expected the nuclear plants to be profitable.
22:02 highest_cubist_thrills; /me is tongue in cheek
22:02 DaemonFC; Then it happened because of the current energy crisis.
22:02 DaemonFC; Gas and coal went sky high and nuclear power became a better deal.
22:02 highest_cubist_thrills; /me was planning to move to australia at one point, but politically
22:02 loner; it's interesting two major energy suppliers in germany filed bancruptcy recently, regardless of the excess energy prices
22:02 highest_cubist_thrills; YIKES
22:02 schestowitz[TR]; highest_cubist_thrills: wrong time
22:02 schestowitz[TR]; people escape ausssie
22:02 highest_cubist_thrills; sure!
22:02 schestowitz[TR]; those who can
22:02 loner; i got a theory about this, as said: energy which does not exist cannot be neither sold nor consumed nor taxed nor anything
22:02 highest_cubist_thrills; i know
22:02 schestowitz[TR]; unless they escape china
22:02 highest_cubist_thrills; it didnt work out anyway
22:02 schestowitz[TR]; or arab countries
22:02 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Indiana was going to build a coal gasification plant.
22:02 highest_cubist_thrills; or rather it did
22:03 highest_cubist_thrills; but not so much for perth
22:03 schestowitz[TR]; check out the price of food in australia
22:03 DaemonFC; They spent millions of dollars and then scrapped the whole thing.
22:03 DaemonFC; It was a disaster.
22:03 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean food is always dear
22:03 DaemonFC; It would be nice to have that now.
22:03 highest_cubist_thrills; in most of the world
22:03 loner; it is interesting however, UK and even more so, got far lower energy prices
22:03 highest_cubist_thrills; if it wasnt, the whole thing wouldnt work :)

22:04 DaemonFC; Then you just dump the crap that would have come out of the smoke stack had it been burned directly off where nobody gives a shit.
22:04 loner; DaemonFC: however, there is one very important difference between coal and "renewables", coal power plants do supply energy
22:04 DaemonFC; And voila.
22:04 schestowitz[TR]; we pay only about 3 pounda a day for food, 1.50 pp
22:04 DaemonFC; We have a big desert. That would have been a good idea.
22:04 DaemonFC; Dump the pollutants out in a hole in the desert.
22:04 loner; and, even when sun is shining and wind is blowing, even then "renewables" do not deliver anything anywhere close to what they said

22:07 schestowitz[TR]; *energy crisis
22:07 highest_cubist_thrills; same as usa
22:07 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Texas is insane.
22:07 schestowitz[TR]; using hundrefs of watts for tasks that should take 5 vioolts
22:07 schestowitz[TR]; and can run on aaa batteries
22:07 highest_cubist_thrills; using hundrefs of watts for tasks that should take 5 vioolts <- /me explains e=ir and p=ie
22:07 DaemonFC; It's unbelievable that the power grid is going to collapse and all ERCOT does is ask Shitcoin miners politely if they'd stop using 16% of the power in the grid.
22:07 DaemonFC; Please and thank you.
22:08 DaemonFC; Insane. Total insanity.
22:08 highest_cubist_thrills; to be fair though
22:08 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: they progit from them
22:08 schestowitz[TR]; the bills
22:08 highest_cubist_thrills; if it takes 5 volts its proabbly NOT drawing "hundreds of watts"
22:08 schestowitz[TR]; and shortages mean they can charge more
22:08 schestowitz[TR]; highest_cubist_thrills: worked a lot on the raspi today
22:08 schestowitz[TR]; it takes hardly anything
22:08 highest_cubist_thrills; im sorry
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; I also turned all the LEDs off
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; months ago
22:09 highest_cubist_thrills; lol
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; that should save a bit
22:09 highest_cubist_thrills; premature optimisation?
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; reduces CPU load and light
22:09 DaemonFC; The funny part about people using the "Griddy" app and then getting a $40,000 electric bill while they had no power and were freezing in their home.....
22:09 psydruid; schestowitz[TR]: I haven't built or bought a new desktop since 2009. I used mine for 3-4 years while I was waiting for laptops and later SBCs to catch up. I am completely disconnected from the reality of people who buy and use such hardware.
22:09 highest_cubist_thrills; mmhmm
22:09 DaemonFC; Was that Griddy was an app in California, from San Francisco, which did nothing.
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; I started switching off all the screens while afk
22:09 highest_cubist_thrills; sbcs are the future
22:09 DaemonFC; Like the kind of shit mjg59_ does for a living.
22:09 psydruid; I just ignore all the talk about such systems and power supplies.
22:10 highest_cubist_thrills; they still suck, because non-free hardware will be abused / is of course, abused
22:10 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
22:10 schestowitz[TR]; good plan, psydruid
22:10 highest_cubist_thrills; this isnt a tech issue, this is about capitalism
22:10 schestowitz[TR]; "Turns out, in the time I looked there are a few 850 W, which is what the 6900XT and 3080 recommend. Heres EVGAs, which fortunately is called a Supernova, not a Collateral Damage, Shootout, Vengence, or Hyper-Extreme Fury. Ah, PC hardware manufacturers, always at the forefront of class and taste!"
22:10 psydruid; I am aware of what's out there and the numbers never make sense.
22:10 DaemonFC; mjg59_'s contributions to Linux have mostly been as useful to users as if he had been out digging holes and then shoveling the dirt back in, or worse.
22:10 highest_cubist_thrills; but it will be a tech issue, when its not a capitalism issue
22:10 schestowitz[TR]; "I guess the bigger question is whether youd want to run these cards in a confined space, even if you could. The NR200P is an airflow-focused case, but I already feel like Id be pushing its thermal limits with anything more than it currently has. But its also where the industry is trending.
22:10 loner; problem is, going low-power certainly does exlude particular software development possibilities
22:10 DaemonFC; San Francisco is a shithole based on fraud.
22:10 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: mjg59_ used to do good work
22:10 schestowitz[TR]; like ACPI
22:10 highest_cubist_thrills; and the numbers never make sense <- they make perfect sense, every quarter!
22:10 DaemonFC; So it's very natural that Griddy was based there.
22:10 loner; none that i would miss, however it's the typical software which is pushed by the industry
22:11 schestowitz[TR]; he should have told the boss "no" when assigned to shit projects
22:11 highest_cubist_thrills; acpi is a trojan horse, says elon musks good side
22:11 loner; try to compile chromium browser on SBC with 5watts power draw...
22:11 highest_cubist_thrills; only joking, i meant shuttleworth. he fucking wishes he was elon musk
22:11 loner; or compile libreoffice... this crap is gone
22:11 schestowitz[TR]; loner: rarely a need for such a monster "app"
22:11 schestowitz[TR]; the main cpu hog is ipfs
22:11 DaemonFC; For about the last 10 years, mjg59_ has been worse than doing nothing for Linux users.
22:11 schestowitz[TR]; I turned off the lights
22:12 DaemonFC; It's all been trash like "Security Theater Boot".
22:12 schestowitz[TR]; and throttled it down
22:12 DaemonFC; Worse, he's a troll who likes to defame useful people.
22:12 highest_cubist_thrills; ipfs isnt so bad if you know what youre doing
22:12 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: yes
22:12 schestowitz[TR]; guilt.
22:12 highest_cubist_thrills; doubtful.
22:12 schestowitz[TR]; the self-describeeed "SJW" people are like that
22:12 DaemonFC; BtrFS patches lately have been.....most interesting.
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; they try to tear things down
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; inc. people who succeed more than them
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; they want to b ring them down to their level
22:13 DaemonFC; I like a lot of what I'm seeing, but at least one of them has been incredibly disturbing.
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; it amkes them feel powerful
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; hence taking on Torvalds, RMS etc.
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; like those two people are "horrible"
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; they couldn't thinkl oif taking on biollG
22:13 DaemonFC; They said that they're seeing extent tree inconsistencies and have no idea where it's coming from, but have added a check to make sure it's not happening before the data gets pushed out to the file system.
22:13 DaemonFC; That's not very re-assuring.
22:13 schestowitz[TR]; no, bill does advertising with rainbows and stuff
22:14 schestowitz[TR]; while he looks foreward toi the next plane trip with "jeff"
22:14 loner; DaemonFC: it's the death certificate for BtrFS
22:14 schestowitz[TR]; a decade later btrfs still lacks mass adoption
22:14 schestowitz[TR]; FB pushed it for a wehile with chris mason
22:14 DaemonFC; Well, I'm just not seeing anyone coming along with better ideas for future storage.
22:15 psydruid; I compiled openoffice on my lemote fuloong 2e back in 2009, as I helped getting support upstreamed. It just took 24 hours for a build to finish, so I tried to do as much building and testing as possible on x86.
22:15 schestowitz[TR]; but you don't hear much about it anymore
22:15 DaemonFC; ZFS sure isn't the solution.
22:15 loner; let me ask, is BtrFS on "stable" branch in linux?
22:15 schestowitz[TR]; fedora played around with it for a while
22:15 schestowitz[TR]; afaik, rhel does not come with it by default
22:15 DaemonFC; loner, For about 9 years I believe.
22:15 schestowitz[TR]; not on any partititon
22:15 DaemonFC; But only recently can it be used with any reliability.
22:15 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: I don't need zfs features anyway
22:15 schestowitz[TR]; maybe a lot of businesses do
22:15 DaemonFC; I wouldn't recommend it unless you have a fairly recent kernel.
22:15 DaemonFC; No older than 5.13 or so.
22:15 schestowitz[TR]; but ordinary and well understoof FSes seem to work OK
22:16 loner; testing nilfs2 for 6month now
22:16 schestowitz[TR]; openzfs =m MS shithub
22:16 DaemonFC; There was a major refactoring going on last year into this year that finally pruned a bunch of nasty BtrFS-specific code in favor of the VFS.
22:16 DaemonFC; So it's getting better by way of shoving common functionality out to the VFS, which has been better written, better tested, and more thoroughly debugged.

22:18 DaemonFC; You REALLY don't want a file system that's well known for trashing data. Old BtrFS had a lot of people who said "Oh I've been using it for years and it's fine." and then one day it became corrupt and no way to fix it.
22:18 DaemonFC; Whoops.

22:20 DaemonFC; Walmart gave me a refund. There's nothing to lose except the $3 I spend trying to re-dye them in the wash.

22:22 highest_cubist_thrills; the master copy?
22:23 schestowitz[TR]; no
22:23 schestowitz[TR]; the album
22:23 schestowitz[TR]; got it cheaply in the 90s
22:23 schestowitz[TR]; it aplayed a lot on my steros
22:23 schestowitz[TR]; when the CD tray still worked
22:23 highest_cubist_thrills; all the best 90s stuff i got used in the 2000s
22:24 highest_cubist_thrills; but i bought it at full price... back when cd stores existed
22:24 schestowitz[TR]; that's where I got it
22:24 schestowitz[TR]; they had diccscounted sectionbs
22:24 highest_cubist_thrills; /me even remembers cassette tapes

22:24 schestowitz[TR]; 2 pounds
22:24 schestowitz[TR]; esp. classics
22:24 highest_cubist_thrills; in 2002 i finally got an 8 track player

22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; which is before i migrated to gnu/linux completely
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; that was 2007
22:27 schestowitz[TR]; I converted many of my CDs to ogg
22:27 DaemonFC; There we go. I got some blue dye for my overalls. I need to be careful with the blue dye or else I'l be blue da-ba-dee da-ba-dye. I'll have a blue house with a blue window.

22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean the name of the game is redundancy
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; yeah i converted to mp3 originally
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; i know, i predicted mp3 in the 80s
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; but REALLLY i predicted flac
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; why would it be lossy
22:27 schestowitz[TR]; playing CDs is not energy-efficient
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; but lossy won :/
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; it did
22:27 schestowitz[TR]; now we have othr storage
22:27 schestowitz[TR]; without spinning platters
22:27 highest_cubist_thrills; i never used flac, i only thought it was better (because it it iis)
22:28 highest_cubist_thrills; im not an audiophile, im a technologist
22:28 schestowitz[TR]; and no optical rays
22:28 highest_cubist_thrills; in 2003 i started moving music to mp3
22:28 schestowitz[TR]; flac is good is you have hifi systems
22:28 highest_cubist_thrills; i would make cdrs, of mp3s
22:28 highest_cubist_thrills; full albums
22:28 schestowitz[TR]; it's funny when ryan boats sbout flak
22:28 highest_cubist_thrills; 7 albums per cd!
22:28 schestowitz[TR]; but then uses some cheapo PC speakers
22:28 highest_cubist_thrills; ryan is right about flac, its just irrelevant that hes right
22:29 schestowitz[TR]; a two piece set of "sound bar" (1)0
22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; yes, get some nice speakers
22:29 DaemonFC; Cheapo PC speakers?
22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; i have dj monitors

22:29 schestowitz[TR]; for like 10 times they price they used to sell a pair for

22:30 schestowitz[TR]; and charge a load of money
22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; /me deliberately gets the name wrong
22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; in 2003 i moved to mp3

22:30 schestowitz[TR]; goes well with DESGINER SHOES
22:30 DaemonFC; THe window controls are all gone.
22:30 DaemonFC; Well, this is nice.
22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; i had a 486 dx2 (headless) running DOS and QBASIC
22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; from a floppy-- no monitor, no keyboard
22:31 highest_cubist_thrills; NO HARD DRIVE!
22:31 highest_cubist_thrills; just a cd and a floppy
22:31 highest_cubist_thrills; why no hd? because... i could have a hd for other machines
22:31 highest_cubist_thrills; this was my headless keyboardless hd-less stereo
22:31 highest_cubist_thrills; i had it connected to the aux of some pioneer or aiwa stereo
22:32 highest_cubist_thrills; (my dj monitors are cheaper and higher quality by far)
22:32 DaemonFC; Okay I pushed flatpak update manually and now the window controls are back.
22:32 DaemonFC; Weird.
22:32 highest_cubist_thrills; the only "setting" was loop or shuffle
22:32 highest_cubist_thrills; qbasic (booted from floppy) figured out that setting not from the kb (it had no kb) but from the WRITE PROTECT TAB of the floppy

22:34 schestowitz[TR]; same album?
22:34 highest_cubist_thrills; the shuffle or loop was set by how the write protect tab on floppy was set
22:34 highest_cubist_thrills; i was really proud of that thing
22:34 schestowitz[TR]; they only had one major hit
22:34 highest_cubist_thrills; threw it out when i moved

22:37 DaemonFC; Opus is fine.

22:40 DaemonFC; So it was easier to just skip Vorbis.
22:40 schestowitz[TR]; because I entered linkedin to check is he STILL claims to speak japanese
