back to Techrights (Main Index)


beginning of new day, September 11

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, ^

00:31 starstreak; it seems like everything is slower than linux

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 starstreak; or windows/itunes in a vm

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.

00:41 DaemonFC; Mine would get them $80-90.

00:42 starstreak; DaemonFC, do you really use a microsoft e-mail address?

00:42 DaemonFC; Yes,

00:42 starstreak; lmao

00:43 starstreak; you should switch to protonmail or tutanota

00:43 techuser; don't promote evil

00:43 DaemonFC; I saw some catalytic converters in the back of a scrapper truck and called it in to the Chicago Police.

00:43 techuser; ProtonMail is even worse shit

00:43 DaemonFC; They came out and got the guy really fast.

00:44 techuser; because they don't allow email clients in free plan, and Tutanota doesn't at all, and also say PGP is bad

00:49 MinceR; actually their focus groups had problems with 2 buttons

00:50 MinceR; tells you a thing or two about what sort of audience they're aiming for

00:50 techuser; hope it doesn't get fucked up in the near futur

00:50 techuser; *future

00:50 MinceR; or you could use a mobile device that doesn't completely suck

00:50 starstreak; yeah that too

00:50 DaemonFC; Makes you wonder if they do this so they can fuck with smart people who end up breaking down and using a Mac as a development box.

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

02:15 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]; and passage of capital

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 schestowitz[TR]; that's not what communism is

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

02:20 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.

02:36 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.

02:38 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Reddit has gotten nastier.

02:38 schestowitz[TR]; conde nasty:)

02:38 schestowitz[TR]; it's in the NAME

02:38 DaemonFC; For some reason, they've made it so the text entry box on Old Reddit has completely disappeared on me in some cases.

02:44 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR]> but it is all herded, censored, moderated by suits

02:44 DaemonFC; Reddit throws in some porn that it knows is probably underage and just doesn't ask questions about to lure people to the site.

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; maybe a honeypot

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; but who knows..

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; like I said, I know little about what's in reddit

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; for several months I used their RSS feed for /Linux

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; then they turned proprietary

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; and quality sank

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; very bad s/n ratio

02:45 schestowitz[TR]; I deleted everything I had in RSS

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

02:50 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"

02:52 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 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I thought Indiana was bad.

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

04:07 schestowitz[TR]; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huawei

↺ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huawei

04:07 TR Bot; Huawei - Wikipedia

04:07 schestowitz[TR]; it's also military contractor

04:07 schestowitz[TR]; Number of employees197,000

04:07 XRevan86; The saying means that the competition is between unappealing adversaries, and one doesn't care about the outcome or the process.

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; Apple 154,000

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; XRevan86: I don'\t buy their products

04:08 highest_cubist_thrills; giafam = gifam?

04:08 XRevan86; Huawei is big, but its smartphone business shrank a lot too.

04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; if they merged with nokia, they could be called nowei

04:09 highest_cubist_thrills; but theres probably nowei that would happen

04:09 XRevan86; Why would I care about Chinese satellites anyway? Or is it just the principle that they thought of the same idea and shipped it first?

04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; i thought russians thought of it first

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; huakia

04:10 highest_cubist_thrills; gesundheit

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; <XRevan86> Huawei is big, but its smartphone business shrank a lot too.

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; wonder huai

04:10 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: Russia doesn't really have phone manufacturing.

04:11 schestowitz[TR]; 'free' market

04:11 highest_cubist_thrills; i was thinking of sputnik

04:11 highest_cubist_thrills; the original one

04:11 XRevan86; Satellite phones are not a new thing either.

04:11 highest_cubist_thrills; definitely not

04:11 schestowitz[TR]; turns out the West only wanted china for its sweatshops (slaves)

04:12 schestowitz[TR]; china was not 'supposed' to make products of its own

04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; turns out the West only wanted china for its sweatshops (slaves) <- this is not surprising

04:12 schestowitz[TR]; they're just rented as slaves

04:12 XRevan86; They merged it with a cellular phone, and that the hype.

04:12 highest_cubist_thrills; i cant imagine how awful the service would be

04:12 schestowitz[TR]; the queen dying is symbolic of the western power's demise

04:12 schestowitz[TR]; end end of BE relics

04:13 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean, satellite internet is known for terrible and unreliable bandwidth-- exactly what you dont want for voice

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; *and end

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; kind charles is "lame duck"

04:13 highest_cubist_thrills; im sure they compress the fuck out of it

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; *king

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; nobody here takes him too seriously

04:13 highest_cubist_thrills; but thats exactly what people hated about old cell phones

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; the brother of pdeo drew

04:13 XRevan86; schestowitz: Is the Gorbachev's death symbolic of anything?

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; that too

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; I thought this hours ago

04:13 highest_cubist_thrills; XRevan86: the triumph of capitalism?

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; when reading an article about him

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; queen and gorby days apart

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; and philip

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; the TRUMP of capitalism

04:14 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: I'm not a very imaginative person so my answer is: human mortality.

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; the traitor is not dead yet

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; "well, he's dead"

04:14 highest_cubist_thrills; /me didnt know Gorbachev was still around

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; "we came, we saw, he died

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; "

04:14 highest_cubist_thrills; (yes i realise hes not now)

04:14 highest_cubist_thrills; (so TECHNICALLY i was right, but theres a nuance)

04:15 schestowitz[TR]; btw, thunberg got buried

04:15 DaemonFC; starstreak lumps me in with people who want to bring back 8 track tapes because I think Gecko 78 should still work on the Web.

04:15 schestowitz[TR]; the media changes to another agenda

04:15 DaemonFC; There's no important new functionality on the Web site of the electric company, or my bank.

04:15 DaemonFC; Why should my existing Web browser stop working if the site doesn't do anything that's useful that requires a new API?

04:16 DaemonFC; The electric company wants the new APIs in order to run tracking malware.

04:16 DaemonFC; I suspect that the bank wants them for the same reason.

04:16 highest_cubist_thrills; i guess climate change isnt a problem then, thats great

04:16 highest_cubist_thrills; well, thank god, for a minute i was worried

04:16 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: He lived a long live unlike Yeltsin who did that: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D1%81%D0%BF%D0%B8%D1%82%D1%8C%D1%81%D1%8F

04:16 DaemonFC; The electric company still works well enough to pay my bills in Firefox, with NoScript, and with some of the domains not allowed to run JavaScript.

04:16 XRevan86; * life

04:17 DaemonFC; This is probably as good as it's going to get from here on out with ComEd.

04:17 DaemonFC; Ironically, the bank Web site that stopped working in SeaMonkey also works more slowly in Firefox, if you block the tracking garbage.

04:18 TR News; LOL. "Free Source Foundation" https://yewtu.be/watch?v=dBhqUW1xoMM

↺ https://yewtu.be/watch?v=dBhqUW1xoMM

04:18 TR Bot; Learn C Programming with Richard Stallman on Linux! - Invidious

04:18 DaemonFC; The code from the main site, which is needed for the bank's site to work, actually pauses anything from loading about halfway in, waits about 8 seconds, then gives up and allows the rest of the banking application to work.

04:19 starstreak; <DaemonFC> starstreak lumps me in with people who want to bring back 8 track tapes because I think Gecko 78 should still work on the Web. <- yes

04:19 DaemonFC; The rendering capabilities of Gecko in SeaMonkey are a little farther along than Firefox 78 ESR was.

04:20 DaemonFC; I don't think that this should cause a major breakdown on _any_ Web site considering that you used to be able to use Web browsers that hadn't been updated much at all for 8 years.

04:20 highest_cubist_thrills; he must have been like 120 when he died

04:20 highest_cubist_thrills; they build that old soviet shit to last

04:21 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR] was talking about when the Web was actually a Web of pages with links, and highly centered on documents that people read.

04:21 *Noisytoot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

04:21 XRevan86; highest_cubist_thrills: He was 91, Elizabeth was 96.

04:21 DaemonFC; In that environment, even Netscape 4 was enough, really.

04:21 highest_cubist_thrills; he was surely 30% lada by the time he died

04:21 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: yeah

04:21 highest_cubist_thrills; he was a lot younger when i thought he was a lot older

04:21 schestowitz[TR]; now it's like a VM

04:22 schestowitz[TR]; yesterday I saw a list of DICOM views "for chrome"

04:22 *Noisytoot has quit (Quit: ZNC 1.8.2 - https://znc.in)

↺ https://znc.in)

04:22 schestowitz[TR]; you'd be right to say, WTF has a browser have to do with viewing 3d objects??

04:22 DaemonFC; The Web is not really a VM. It's a lot worse than that.

04:22 highest_cubist_thrills; webgl, or something

04:22 schestowitz[TR]; it became just a set of application APIs and system calls with browser system level

04:22 schestowitz[TR]; like Adobe Trash but worse

04:23 highest_cubist_thrills; mozilla/linux

04:23 DaemonFC; With WASM, you get mjg59_'s "This is Fine." "security" model of run arbitrary binaries in your browser and just hope the sandbox isn't breached.

04:23 schestowitz[TR]; more powerful and versatile, even DRM _BUILT IN_

04:23 DaemonFC; Even though you use an Intel processor and there's probably attacks on those that you can pull off.

04:23 highest_cubist_thrills; gnu is implemented in webgl and mozilla is implemented in rust

04:23 highest_cubist_thrills; "we needed to get drm into gnu, we figured this was the best way other than gnu moving to github"

04:23 *Noisytoot (~noisytoot@tkbibjhmbkvb8.irc) has joined #techrights

04:24 *highest_cubist_thrills has quit (connection closed)

04:25 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: don't worry, mozilla is serious about security

04:25 schestowitz[TR]; it means business

04:25 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Even if what you're doing isn't illegal, or disgusting, or distasteful, disagreeing with mjg59_ will probably get you hate mail and letters to your ISP asking them to disconnect you.

04:25 schestowitz[TR]; it hired from "The Company"

04:25 schestowitz[TR]; directly

04:25 DaemonFC; He's Irish so not used to living in a democracy.

04:25 schestowitz[TR]; career path: uni, cia, then mozilla CSO

04:26 DaemonFC; But he claims to be an American now, even though he'll never be one.

04:26 schestowitz[TR]; career path: genetics, red hat, 'secrity' genius

04:26 highest_cubist_thrills; im not here to make jokes about russian brides, per se

04:26 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean i think that comedy wise thats tapped out

04:26 highest_cubist_thrills; but just the name of the website, is what i find hilarious

04:26 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], People in Ireland found out how "free" they are during COVID.

04:26 highest_cubist_thrills; ladadate.com/russian-brides

04:26 DaemonFC; Things got even more oppressive there than they did in Illinois under Pritzker.

04:27 highest_cubist_thrills; if you saw a dating app called "toyotadate" what would you imagine?

04:27 DaemonFC; Or mjg59_'s adopted state of California, where Governor Nuisance told them they were on home confinement while he had maskless dinner parties at a $700 a plate restaurant in violation of his own public health order.

04:27 highest_cubist_thrills; granted, they technically have that...

04:28 highest_cubist_thrills; they just call it tinder

04:28 DaemonFC; They just quietly opened the restaurant up for rich people and slipped the Governor in.

04:28 schestowitz[TR]; toy over-the-air date

04:28 DaemonFC; And he didn't reckon anyone would photograph it.

04:28 highest_cubist_thrills; they have that too

04:28 schestowitz[TR]; sounds like a wanking |"app"

04:28 highest_cubist_thrills; but its called something else

04:28 DaemonFC; They called a recall election and the majority voted to continue with the stupid bastard.

04:29 DaemonFC; They're talking about trying to run Gavin Newsom for POTUS.

04:29 DaemonFC; LOL

04:29 DaemonFC; It'll be the biggest electoral wipeout since Walter Mondale.

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; never used apps

04:30 highest_cubist_thrills; youve been married for like a decade

04:30 DaemonFC; Trump doesn't seem to actually care that his sticking around is damaging the Republican Party and fucking up winnable elections.

04:31 highest_cubist_thrills; and youre definitely not in the lifestyle

04:31 DaemonFC; His interference in the Illinois election all but ensures we get Prickster again.

04:31 schestowitz[TR]; dating is a lifestyle?

04:31 DaemonFC; He's stayed quiet on the Illinois Supreme Court elections. I do plan to vote for Mark Curran.

04:31 highest_cubist_thrills; it is when youre married

04:32 DaemonFC; There's two seats that might be flipped and we only need to flip one of them to get rid of the Democratic Party majority on the Supreme Court.

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; some people date based on some old profile photo from 2 decades ago

04:32 DaemonFC; They can start the shredder and ruin almost everything the Democrats are passing into law as soon as they retake the court.

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.

20:02 highest_cubist_thrills; merci!

20:02 starstreak; highest_cubist_thrills, have you seen ravynOS?

20:04 TR Bot; Finesse of macOS. Freedom of FreeBSD.

20:05 starstreak; its a shame their source code is hosted on github

20:05 highest_cubist_thrills; the linux compatibility layer requires wayland :)

20:05 highest_cubist_thrills; Many Linux applications that support Wayland are expected to work with FreeBSDs Linux emulation layer.

20:05 starstreak; nice

20:05 highest_cubist_thrills; but maybe thats a freebsd thing, not ravyns fault

20:05 MinceR; that title already tells me i don't want to bother with ravynOS

20:05 starstreak; i dont mind wayland, i kinda like it

20:05 highest_cubist_thrills; its a shame their source code is hosted on github <- its a shame that microsoft controlls 99% of free software, yes

20:05 highest_cubist_thrills; and the gnu developers dont even give a fuck

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

20:20 highest_cubist_thrills; <MinceR> for example, in X, you can restart/replace your window manager with your clients running <- which is awesome

20:20 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean, on vms you could move running applications from one MACHINE to another

20:20 highest_cubist_thrills; the entire process tree

20:20 highest_cubist_thrills; so this sort of flexibility is something we strive for

20:21 highest_cubist_thrills; but the redmond treadmill only cares about the next quarter

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

21:34 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.

21:37 schestowitz[TR]; I can't recall ways to find it

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.

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.

22:02 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.

22:04 loner; DaemonFC: however, there is one very important difference between coal and "renewables", coal power plants do supply energy

22:04 DaemonFC; And voila.

22:09 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

22:13 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.

22:14 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]; 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.

22:28 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]; DaemonFC: or sound bar

22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; they were all i ould get, and they were cheap

22:29 schestowitz[TR]; the marketed BS

22:29 DaemonFC; I have the Bose system and I also have my headphones.

22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; theres NO EXCUSE for shit speakers

22:29 schestowitz[TR]; they sell you ONE speaker now

22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; get some dj monitors

22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; best $100 youll ever spend

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

22:29 schestowitz[TR]; and they make it sound "tendy"

22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; tell MARISOL to eat a bag of dicks

22:29 DaemonFC; Yeah, I don't have the one speaker.

22:29 DaemonFC; I have the one designed by Amar Bose.

22:29 schestowitz[TR]; wwwe used to have a sounbar called subwoofer

22:29 highest_cubist_thrills; with her earpods

22:30 schestowitz[TR]; and now they sell the whole system in one piece

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]; <DaemonFC> I have the one designed by Amar Bose.

22:30 schestowitz[TR]; DESIGNER speakers

22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; (i dont have those either btw)

22:30 DaemonFC; Something bad just happened to my QT apps in Flatpak.

22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; mp3 on cd though

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

22:33 DaemonFC; I use Okular because KDE has a much better document reader than GNOME does.

22:33 highest_cubist_thrills; it used some dos mp3 player

22:33 DaemonFC; But I bring it in with Flatpak.

22:34 schestowitz[TR]; ah

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

22:36 highest_cubist_thrills; i heard a cover of bronski beat yesterday

22:36 highest_cubist_thrills; at a coffee shop

22:36 highest_cubist_thrills; oliver platt?

22:36 highest_cubist_thrills; for all i know thats the guy from bronksi beat, otherwise its a cover

22:36 schestowitz[TR]; rianne thinks it's russian

22:36 schestowitz[TR]; she cannot tell the difference

22:36 highest_cubist_thrills; if its the same guy, his voice sure got deeper

22:37 schestowitz[TR]; it's like telling hangul and nippon apart

22:37 schestowitz[TR]; you pick up some words

22:37 highest_cubist_thrills; yeah i cant tell russian from ukranian

22:37 DaemonFC; Opus is fine.

22:37 highest_cubist_thrills; id have to be russian or ukranian to tell

22:37 highest_cubist_thrills; thats what we have xrevan for

22:37 DaemonFC; MP3 and Ogg Vorbis were basically both designed wrong, but Vorbis was at least much better.

22:37 psydruid; it's not that easy to tell ukrainian and russian apart for people who are unfamiliar with them

22:38 schestowitz[TR]; for business reasons many in jpop can sing in hangula nd in kpop they do japenese versions

22:38 schestowitz[TR]; doubles their audience

22:38 schestowitz[TR]; jim zemlin speaks japanese

22:38 schestowitz[TR]; microsoft linkedin still says so

22:38 schestowitz[TR]; I want someone from japan to ask him ina conference

22:39 schestowitz[TR]; a question in japenese

22:39 schestowitz[TR]; that should be fun

22:39 DaemonFC; Vorbis has two big design defects that I can think of. 1. floor0 2. Unique prediction model in each file.

22:39 schestowitz[TR]; the fraud will make up a story to avoid answering, he's a bullshit artist like the wife

22:39 DaemonFC; It would have been in more hardware without the second problem.

22:40 DaemonFC; The vector codebook in the file is only a couple KB packed, but when unpacked, it takes a lot more RAM to play the file than AAC, MP3, and WMA.

22:40 schestowitz[TR]; i found out she escaped her latest fraud

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

22:40 highest_cubist_thrills; for business reasons many in jpop <- i only listen to kpop and then only because of psy

22:40 highest_cubist_thrills; and then, only because we played it at my wedding

22:40 schestowitz[TR]; kpop is rotting away

22:41 schestowitz[TR]; tghe bands don't laast long

22:41 highest_cubist_thrills; probably, i dont keep track of music

22:41 schestowitz[TR]; injuries, depressions, suicides
