01:45 XRevan86; MinceR: postgres is the best DBMS, but this isn't really mysql's fault, this is legacy.
01:45 schestowitz; my last "good" backup, assuming before the sunday night thing, is sunday 5am
01:45 MinceR; :>
01:45 XRevan86; My closest experience with MyISAM was when I was migrating MyISAM tables to InnoDB.
01:45 MinceR; :>
01:46 bnchs__; schestowitz, you can try doing "perror 5"
01:46 bnchs__; to get more information about the error code
01:46 chunky; your grandma is 40 + ur house has roaches + your links r 404 + you save forums as a pdf + u went to fyre feast + u breathe loud as fuck
01:46 MinceR; lol
01:46 XRevan86; I guess a good idea would be to figure out what the "node" table is about.
01:47 schestowitz; it's the table with all the posts
01:47 schestowitz; a similar situation happened a couple of time years ago
01:47 schestowitz; the simplest fix was,
01:47 chunky; u have a favorite commercial + u pay for pornhub + u still wear covid masks + your blogs are retarded + go outside + car infested with squirrels
01:47 schestowitz; restore from backup
01:47 XRevan86; schestowitz: Was that the time when I recommended to you to migrate to InnoDB?
01:47 schestowitz; then readd the missing nodes
01:47 XRevan86; I'm pretty sure I said it at least once.
01:47 bnchs__; <chunky> [...] u went to fyre feast [...]
01:47 bnchs__; i still haven't recovered
01:48 schestowitz; XRevan86: maybe this is a good opportunity to update the whole OS, Ariadne?
01:48 chunky; the typo gives it character
01:48 schestowitz; I can move everything there, then load a better DB and import the latest good backup into that
01:48 XRevan86; schestowitz: The database is not going to migrate itself regardless of the OS.
01:49 schestowitz; yeah, but the mysql dump would, I think
01:49 XRevan86; Unless it explicitly mentions "ENGINE = 'MyISAM'"
01:49 XRevan86; (not verbatim)
01:49 schestowitz; though in the past we got the same issue when importing this site's dump onto a newwe version of mariadb/mysql
01:50 schestowitz; XRevan86: ah, maybe that's why it did not work when we tried
01:50 schestowitz; we tried several times
01:50 my computer instead of shuting down is rebooting
01:50 linux is crazy
01:50 XRevan86; mysqldump will preserve the selected engine, because it's a back-up after all, it won't lose the engine information willy-nilly.
01:51 bnchs__; : what did you do
01:51 nothing
01:51 schestowitz; XRevan86: that's good to know, thanls
01:51 at least its booting
01:51 schestowitz; that would likely explain why we failed to export the DB to a more modern DB server
01:51 i was giving me a had time booting
01:51 schestowitz; XRevan86: is there a means for conversion?
01:51 XRevan86; It would import successfully, it just won't improve.
01:52 now it boots ok it just foesent shutdown ok
01:52 schestowitz; there's 18 years of data in it
01:52 schestowitz; I guess it's our biggest technical debt
01:53 i blame google for it
01:53 XRevan86; schestowitz: Either ALTER TABLE with ENGINE = 'InnoDB' and then back-up (time-intensive to do both), or patch the back-up file to mention "InnoDB" instead of "MyISAM".
01:53 i bet its elon musk having fun at my expense
01:53 XRevan86; s/MyISAM/InnoDB/g won't do because that will also mess up the data.
01:54 schestowitz; XRevan86: :-(
01:54 schestowitz; so no simple .dump -> .dump for another storage engine?
01:54 chunky; u buy cigarettes online + u use library internet + u make everyone depresed + yr mom is attracted to u + dick so small cant even hit the IUD + u do this meme all day + get a fucking life + ur mom chugs hand sanitizer + overdosed on herbal ecstasy
01:55 schestowitz; tbh, I don't mind re-adding a day's worth of nodes
01:55 XRevan86; schestowitz: I'm not aware of mysqldump being capable to replace stuff on the fly.
01:55 bnchs__; "yr mom is attracted to u + dick so small cant even hit the IUD"
01:55 bnchs__; ok now that doesn't make sense
01:55 schestowitz; if we can at least evacuate the DB to a more modern machine
01:55 schestowitz; Ariadne: are you around?
01:56 schestowitz; XRevan86: let's just say I have a working backup, pre-incident
01:56 XRevan86; schestowitz: Also remember that "SHOW TABLE STATUS" will show all the relevant information about the tables in the current database.
01:56 XRevan86; One can overview it and then ALTER TABLE the relevant tables.
01:56 chunky; u like seagulls (dumb) + no1 noticed u were here + u draw on money + u believe popups that say u have a virus + cheap cologne + u breathe loud as fuck
01:57 schestowitz; it's possible that this morning's backup is in OK state too
01:57 schestowitz; because you said that Sunday warning did not indicate a fatal panic
01:58 chunky is a racist pig
01:58 schestowitz; at the moment we have a poorly 'repaired' DB
01:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 20.40 k/sec., IPFS upstream 56.16 average k/sec., average swarm size 323.76
01:59 chunky; : i am not wtf
01:59 you didnt upload your DB backup to ipfs?
02:00 schestowitz; I have two backups from this morning, 4am and 5am. Bur the Sunday 5am one seems 'safer' to try
02:00 psydruid;
02:00 schestowitz; but we've long had an issue with this DB as the moment we export it to a newer installation it would then break itself when modified
02:01 schestowitz; likely, as you noted, since the storage engine isn't set "properly"
02:01 schestowitz; but we deal with almost 20 years of work here, and could really use a way to 'modernise' the DB, XRevan86
02:02 .
02:04 *ciphrCat has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
02:04 ypu upload it to IPFS and let the community solve it
02:04 schestowitz; XRevan86: if you had to choose a backup, would you choose the one from sunday morning before the first little panic?
02:04 XRevan86; schestowitz: As MinceR pointed out, the ultimate modernisation is to use mysql_fdw and migrate to postgres :)
02:05 psydruid;
02:05 *ciphrCat (~ciphrCat@v75kd7krrqfvs.irc) has joined #techrights

02:05 schestowitz; let's say this version of drupal does not support postgres
02:06 schestowitz; (I don't think it does)
02:06 schestowitz; I could, at the moment, revert back to the sunday morning backup
02:06 schestowitz; but I thought of having a go at moving to a whole new OS for the site during easter

02:12 XRevan86; psydruid: I think MinceR should actually consider.
02:12 XRevan86; MinceR: It is time.
02:12 chunky; MODS!!!!! BAN THIS EVIL PERSON!!!
02:12 psydruid; XRevan86, he could have done so a long time ago, if he wanted
02:13 XRevan86; I'm impressed, that looked coherent.

02:14 chunky; i can string them all around you
02:14 MinceR; chunky: yeah, but can you make them make sense?

02:18 schestowitz; XRevan86: if you're still about, any way of running things with MyISAM on a modern OS?
02:18 XRevan86; schestowitz: I never said MyISAM won't run.
02:19 XRevan86; It's just not a reliable way of storing information.
02:19 schestowitz-TR; right, thanks.
02:19 schestowitz-TR; so a modern OS can be configured to use it?
02:20 schestowitz-TR; we typically make backup dumps each morning, locally and remotely
02:20 chunky; slipknot + u still wear your highschool football jersey + career complainer + ratio'd + u have mold under your sink + u pay for cable + u bought fake kratom
02:20 are you using mango or maria DB?
02:20 XRevan86; schestowitz: MariaDB and Oracle MySQL both maintain compatibility.
02:20 schestowitz-TR; ah, OK, so if I were to install them, I just need to set some flag right?
02:21 schestowitz-TR; and that would be done separately from handling the DB dump?
02:21 XRevan86; schestowitz: There's no flag.
02:22 XRevan86; MyISAM tables will just work (badly, but that's just their nature).
02:23 bnchs__; gn

02:23 schestowitz-TR; when we imported this DB about 2 years ago it was failing the moment I added new nodes
02:24 schestowitz-TR; everything else seemed OK, when importing, but when Drupal got used it would break. We tried 2-3 times.
02:24 schestowitz-TR; So the goal is to preserve all site data (18 years) while moving to a modern OS.

02:30 DaemonFC; Well, now I officially own a luxury car.
02:30 DaemonFC; B-)
02:30 how much CO2 per galon?
02:30 DaemonFC; The old lady that owned it before me drove it over a curb and fucked up the front suspension too, so they had to do a front end rebuild on it.
02:31 DaemonFC; Rides like a dream.
02:31 DaemonFC; <> how much CO2 per galon?
02:31 DaemonFC; That would be consistent among all cars.
02:31 DaemonFC; You mean how much CO2 per mile driven?
02:32 DaemonFC; Who knows. It's a 3800 V6 Series III so probably a lot.
02:32 DaemonFC; I'd rather buy more gas than deal with an aluminum and plastic engine.
02:32 no luxury cars release more CO2 per galon
02:32 XRevan86; : Aria is better, but InnoDB would still be a better fit for this type of table.
02:32 DaemonFC; Well, with aluminum and plastic, you can't win on TCO vs. an old gas guzzler.
02:33 MinceR; how much CO2 does a BMW release while burning into a pile of ash?
02:33 DaemonFC; Just warming it up and cooling it back down fatigues the plastic intakes.
02:33 DaemonFC; <MinceR> how much CO2 does a BMW release while burning into a pile of ash?
02:33 XRevan86 pick one that you can port in another 5 years
02:33 DaemonFC; With a BMW, you _can_ keep the engine going a long time, but few of them listen to the mechanic when they tell them how you manage that.
02:33 MinceR; just don't start it, ever
02:33 MinceR; keep it in a garage
02:34 MinceR; better yet, don't even buy it
02:34 DaemonFC; You basically have to proactively replace the entire cooling system every 7 years or 75,000 miles, MinceR
02:34 MinceR; as for plastic parts, some manufacturers manage to get away with them
02:34 DaemonFC; It's VERY expensive, so then their engine gets destroyed the first time it overheats.
02:34 MinceR; just not the germans
02:34 DaemonFC; And they need a new engine PLUS a cooling system.
02:35 DaemonFC; MinceR, The 3800 V6 has some quirks, but the later models were very reliable overall.
02:35 DaemonFC; Cheap to fix.
02:35 DaemonFC; It was ranked one of the top 10 engines of the 20th century.
02:35 so they are perfect cars for innuits
02:35 DaemonFC; Though GM improved it again in 2005.

03:25 kingoffrance; no, no heart
03:25 chunky; damn, how does your blood get pumped?
03:25 kingoffrance; caffeine

03:28 schestowitz-TR; I think (THINK!) I might manage to repair the existing 'broken' DB
03:28 schestowitz-TR; with myisamchk
03:29 schestowitz-TR; but even if I did, not too sure I'd trust its integrity after this repair, unlike older backups which predate the incident
03:30 psydruid; how much data are we talking about here?
03:30 schestowitz-TR; 470mb compressed
03:31 psydruid; that isn't a lot, but I'm not that familiar with mysql
03:31 schestowitz-TR; this is rather old mysql
03:31 schestowitz-TR; but then again the DB was populated since 2004
03:31 schestowitz-TR; I was a student back then
03:32 psydruid; my experience is mostly with oracle at a former employer, one of the major data integration companies
03:33 psydruid; and postgres more recently
03:33 schestowitz-TR; this repair operation did not help
03:33 try it on windows :D
03:33 schestowitz-TR; I can access everything OK only if I am logged in
03:33 psydruid; the tools don't work?
03:35 kingoffrance; we cant get a room, mincer doesnt believe in rooms, everyone is supposed to delphi technique synthesize
03:35 kingoffrance; and with that i bid you adieu
03:35 *kingoffrance has quit (Quit: Leaving)
03:38 psydruid; maybe you have to set the permissions correctly
03:38 psydruid; but using myisam isn't really recommended
03:38 schestowitz-TR; no, it seems to have been caused by a bad write
03:39 schestowitz-TR; which messes up a table
03:39 psydruid; I thought everything ws innodb for years
03:39 schestowitz-TR; and makes recovery hard or impossible
03:39 psydruid; do you have a backup that you know is good?
03:40 schestowitz-TR; yes
03:40 schestowitz-TR; but it would be nice to upgrade the whole system
03:40 schestowitz-TR; while we're at it
03:40 schestowitz-TR; I've put the site in offline mode to prevent confusion

03:41 schestowitz-TR; Windows users downloading exe and msi files?
03:43 psydruid; and what cms are you using? Drupal?
03:43 schestowitz-TR; yes
03:44 *matey (~matey@pzeavskfbwhvk.irc) has joined #techrights
03:46 psydruid; I see that Drupal supports Postgres in addition to MySQL now
03:46 schestowitz-TR; yes, but moving upwards in drupal versions renders lots of stuff obsolete
03:47 matey; i see that drupal is self-hosted, nice
03:48 matey; (its also in the fsd fork)
03:48 matey; SO MUCH OF WHICH is fucking cpan (this isnt cpans fault-- if indeed it is anyones)
03:49 matey; i made another little automated tool to help me manage all of that
03:49 matey; its not really "automated", it just does most of the work for me
03:49 matey; mostly automated
03:50 psydruid; which version of Drupal are you currently on?
03:50 matey; i spent about 30 minutes making it, it already saved me 2 or 3 hours, and that was less than 2 or 3 hours ago
03:51 matey; oh im not using drupal, sorry
03:51 psydruid; neither am I
03:51 matey; what i meant was, if you fork the fsd
03:51 psydruid; I've never even used it
03:51 matey; and you remove projects that dont meet its rather strict criteria
03:51 matey; drupal is still there
03:51 matey; both hypothetically and actually
03:51 psydruid; I'm just trying to understand what the situation is
03:52 matey; what situation exactly?
03:52 matey; with drupal adding support?
03:52 matey; for postgres?
03:53 psydruid; mysql data dump from a mysql myisam database that seems corrupt and can't be moved to something like postgres, because the drupal cms is an older version
03:53 chunky hacked your site
03:54 psydruid; newer versions of drupal have removed support for certain things, so moving to them is not an option
03:54 psydruid; that's my understanding at present
03:54 schestowitz-TR; I am rebuilding the index
03:54 chunky; : woah there, that's not true and a serious accusation!!
03:54 schestowitz-TR; seems promising
03:54 matey; oh that sucks
03:54 matey; do you suspect foul play?
03:54 schestowitz-TR; like I said before, even if I FIX the existing thing, I would not trust its integrity going foward
03:55 schestowitz-TR; not without tons of testing
03:55 matey; /me is asking psydroid because he isnt sure what roy is talking about is even related yet
03:55 matey; though it could be the same thing
03:56 * Rolls a 6 sided dice and gets 3
03:56 schestowitz-TR; 17,000,000 data records in search index
03:56 psydruid; no foul play, just not great technology
03:57 schestowitz-TR; psydruid: just throwing out there this remark, ymmv
03:57 schestowitz-TR; techdirt moved to wordpress last month
03:57 schestowitz-TR; they were anxious to migrate
03:57 schestowitz-TR; not sure what they used before
03:57 schestowitz-TR; techdirt goes back to the 1990s
03:57 matey; "just not great technology" when technology gets worse, i dont rule out foul play until i come up with a better explanation :)
03:57 matey; only because ive learned its fucking common
03:57 schestowitz-TR; running sites for this long is very hard, without "overhaul", as technology changes far too fast
03:58 matey; techdirt moved to wordpress last month <- masochism?
03:58 matey; technology changes far too fast <- technology tends to change more slowly if you keep things simple
03:58 schestowitz-TR; php may not work after a version bump, OSes deprecate support for "old" things, some projects get abandoned, so no security fixes
03:58 matey; /me hasnt considered php stable since it turned into a langauge he cant figure out how to use
03:59 schestowitz-TR; meh
03:59 matey; /me used to code in php (though nothing extensive)
03:59 schestowitz-TR; even after this long repair process it still does not work :/

04:00 matey; php was so simple you could mock it for its simplicity, and people did
04:00 matey; then they fixed it.
04:00 matey; /me wouldnt know how to follow
04:01 matey; i used to be able to make a really simple guestbook in php in minutes
04:01 matey; i can still do it in python
04:01 chunky; that guy sure didn't seem to like me!
04:02 matey; i think half the people here consider you a troll
04:02 psydruid; is rainian
04:02 matey; though thats just my impression
04:02 chunky; i'll have to do some public image repairing around here
04:02 chunky; i've gone TOO FAR this time
04:02 matey; rofl
04:02 psydruid; I consider him a dead troll
04:02 chunky; that sounds menacing
04:03 psydruid; I just need to write some patches to add ignore functionality in XMPP clients
04:03 psydruid; not menacing, just dead
04:04 chunky; please do not hurt me :(
04:04 chunky; i swear i'm alright
04:04 matey; pipelines make things too fucking easy
04:04 chunky; i just got caught up the meme

04:06 chunky; getting angry rn thinking about how microsoft owns github
04:06 matey; it covers too much (though thats not your fault)
04:06 chunky; brb gotta pace around the room for 3-8 minutes
04:06 matey; /me knows hes taking the piss
04:06 chunky; ;D
04:07 chunky; yeah i don't feel too much anger but i sincerely dislike microsoft's history of abuse
04:07 chunky; and i don't see how them controlling the open source dev ecosystem is good for anyone
04:07 matey; theyre a bit crap
04:07 chunky; it's gonna flop on everyone
04:07 matey; open source was always a scam imo
04:07 matey; though the prehistory and VERY early history im still unsure on
04:07 chunky; the wrong people were definitely in charge of the freedom movement
04:07 matey; not because im unfamiliar, some of it remains a mystery
04:07 chunky; stallman has basically sabotaged it w/o trying
04:07 chunky; just by being himself
04:08 chunky; i think the guy is a genius but he should have delegated the public figure stuff
04:08 matey; i mean youve got it backwards but
04:08 psydruid; microsoft only looks big because people allow it to look big
04:08 matey; i dont think its his public figure that has done the real damage tbh
04:08 matey; though its a common scapegoat
04:08 psydruid; in reality they are nothing and their solutions don't even work
04:08 schestowitz-TR; the size is not the issue
04:08 schestowitz-TR; it's the behaviour
04:08 psydruid; or not for long
04:08 chunky; github works fine because microsoft didn't build it
04:08 chunky; but they are screwing it up fairly quickly
04:09 schestowitz-TR; they are
04:09 matey; the size is not the issue <- it's the behaviour <- if you mean github, the two are definitely related
04:09 psydruid; microsoft could be ousted from every organization within a few years at most, but there are microsoft moles who keep it in place for selfish gains
04:09 matey; monopoly behaves like a monopoly
04:09 matey; monopoly becomes monopoly by behaving like one
04:10 matey; the size is a product of the monopoly
04:10 chunky; microsoft owning github and the most popular text editor on the market is a bad thing, they've fooled a lot of new and old devs alike by virtue signalling about how much they love open source
04:10 matey; and the most popular text editor on the market <- which?
04:10 chunky; "microsoft is good now!!!" jslover34
04:11 psydruid; I consider the devs the fools and make no excuses for them
04:11 matey; ^
04:11 matey; call me sentimental, i want projects run by people who give a shit about my freedom
04:11 chunky; that's pretty fair psydruid but ultimately everyone suffers for it
04:11 matey; people who hold the door open for microsoft are no better for free software than people who held the door open for the early january coup are for america
04:11 psydruid; if you are a good dev you can create anything from scratch given enough resources
04:12 chunky; and i think a lot of devs could be convinced to not prop up microsoft if they even had a clue about it
04:12 chunky; but most people just want to get stuff done and use the popular/available tools for the job
04:12 matey; which text editor is the most popular on the market?
04:12 chunky; vscode
04:12 matey; hehehe
04:12 chunky; and it's barely even open source
04:12 chunky; all the good features are proprietary plugins by microsoft
04:13 chunky; they've taken everyone for absolute fools!
04:13 matey; its what they do best
04:14 psydruid; I've avoided anything from microsoft for decades
04:14 psydruid; you never use it and don't become dependent on it
04:15 chunky; yeah i don't use any of their products
04:15 psydruid; but I understand the market has changed and embraced all of these "freebies"
04:15 psydruid; especially in "hip" fields like web development
04:17 schestowitz-TR; psydruid: I will try another pair of recovery modes, but failing that we can always recover fully, manually, though i assume Ariadne is afk (it would be better to also move to a newer OS while at it; should not be hard technically
04:17 chunky; i do a bit of webdev and there's absolutely no reason to use m$ products
04:18 chunky; the one good thing microsoft did was create LSP
04:20 matey; /me can access techrights.org, the wiki and an article, wonders whats down
04:20 chunky; maybe if it were hosted on azure it would be working fine
04:20 matey; granted its an old article and i didnt check any links on the front page
04:20 *chunky runs away FAST
04:21 psydruid; schestowitz-TR, I think it would be better to get Ariadne involved when available, because it's about several things I am not familiar with
04:21 matey; maybe if it were hosted on azure <- maybe if it were written on a macbook :)
04:21 chunky; hahahaha
04:21 matey; /me wonders what the linux-killing foundation uses for a server
04:21 psydruid; never used Azure or Oracle Cloud, only IBM Cloud with free credits
04:22 matey; i wonder if anyone has ever used a pickup truck chassis in a "server room"
04:22 psydruid; they all want that credit card info that I don't have
04:22 psydruid; at least not anymore
04:22 matey; either for bitcoin mining, or even an actual server (this would probably be in texas or something)
04:23 matey; its hard to imagine no one else has thought of it at least
04:23 chunky; i have to use google cloud stuff for work
04:23 matey; "why a pickup truck chassis?"
04:23 matey; "i mean, yknow, it was just sittin there"
04:23 matey; "and theyre real sturdy, so i just put the servers up on that on cinder blocks, an there ya go"
04:24 matey; "what kind of rack is that?"
04:24 matey; "its an old chevy"
04:26 schestowitz-TR; psydruid: yes, she's very helpful and better than me at those things
04:29 matey; psydruid: do you know whats actually down? its a mystery to me
04:30 psydruid; matey, one of the sites has a corrupt database, so it's offline now
04:30 matey; ust be tuxmachines, techrights seems fine
04:31 matey; ah yes, tuxmachines is doing 503
04:33 chunky; men of culture idb (in dis bitch)
04:38 *darwin has quit (Quit: Leaving)
04:44 matey; kingoffrance no, as your punishment you must write 200 pages single spaced defining "state" and "rights" and "person" and "human" and "property" and "family" and how abolishing the "state" will magically lead to a coherent system instead of just meaningless gibberish and more confusion of tongues <- i knew it would come to this
04:45 matey; thats a terrible setup, it would be more coherent in less than 200 pages and its only going to be padded with more of the same problem
04:48 matey; "hai is shark in german" <- shark exists. man boat mein. boat paina mein. shark paina mein. humira shark.
04:49 matey; s/paina/pani
04:49 matey; i knew that was wrong
04:49 matey; main ishaan hoon
04:53 psydruid; haai is Dutch for German Hai
04:54 psydruid; main sochta hun ki hindi mein boat ko "kishti" bolte hain
04:54 matey; hmm
04:55 matey; distrowatch is using debian <- funny, i was sure they said they used bsd (freebsd?) and i used to think "good luck with that"
04:55 matey; /me doubts they use debian, but maybe its possible
04:58 chunky; what's wrong w/ freebsd?
04:58 chunky; i use it
04:58 psydruid; aur shark ko "grah", lekin ye shabd mujhe malum nahin tha
04:58 matey; what's wrong w/ freebsd? <- this was years before i switched to bsd, and figured they were makings things difficult for themselves

05:00 *CrystalMath has quit (Quit: Leaving)
05:00 psydruid; FreeBSD used to not fix bugs for years according to what some people told me, but I haven't had problems with 13.0 running on an older laptop
05:00 matey; /me gets "hangar" and "sark" for m / f hindi
05:01 psydruid; that is, until the hard drive broke
05:01 matey; my limited experience with freebsd was mostly positive
05:01 matey; t was my first bsd really
05:01 psydruid; it was for me too
05:02 psydruid; but it also depends on your hardware
05:02 matey; i would use it before midnightbsd :)
05:02 matey; it also depends on your hardwar <- hence "mostly" as it didnt install on the laptop
05:02 matey; surprisingly, openbsd did
05:02 psydruid; and after midnightbsd?
05:02 matey; after midnightbsd of course i would run dd
05:03 psydruid; OpenBSD installs on almost anything I've thrown at it
05:03 matey; i know someone who had trouble getting it onto an sbc
05:03 matey; lack of documentation
05:03 psydruid; I thought it would be something like earlymorningbsd or ghostbsd :)
05:04 matey; midnightbsd is both github based and a stallman backstabber
05:04 psydruid; yes, ARM support is a weakness
05:04 matey; i sometimes confuse it with mirbsd but im 85% certain mir is the good one
05:04 psydruid; I talked to some OpenBSD people this weekend
05:04 matey; nice, howd that go
05:05 psydruid; I think NetBSD is more suitable for ARM SBCs
05:05 psydruid; well, it was more of a general discussion
05:06 matey; I think NetBSD is more suitable for ARM SBCs <- thats what they went for instead
05:06 matey; on the sbc

05:07 TR Bot; Raat Akeli Hai, Bhuj Gaye Diye(HQ) JEWEL THIEF (1967) - Invidious
05:10 psydruid; I don't know so much about that era of film and music
05:10 matey; but im sure youve seen kajol in something
05:11 matey; probably with shah rukh khan
05:11 psydruid; yes, I know her
05:11 matey; thats her mother
05:11 matey; from "jewel thief"
05:13 matey; whats funnier (imo) is that kajol played someone named anjeli opposite a girl named angeli and in jewel thief her mother is also named angeli
05:13 psydruid; sometimes I'm wondering if people in our family would have ended up in film and music if we had stayed in india
05:13 matey; or anjuli
05:14 matey; i dont know, it seems like the most common jobs are doctor, pharmacy, entertainment and it
05:14 psydruid; my grandparents were touring musicians long before I was born
05:14 matey; even if those are also stereotypes
05:14 psydruid; and also involved in theatre
05:15 matey; i never wanted to play the flute, but the tiny brass indian ones sound so fucking beautiful
05:15 matey; i think a lot of it is probably the style
05:15 psydruid; sometimes I find some of their music such as folk songs on youtube
05:16 matey; thats awesome
05:16 psydruid; recently even someone from india told me they know some of my relatives from suriname
05:17 matey; the internet definitely makes the world smaller
05:20 *darwin (~darwin@7d3n498busjrn.irc) has joined #techrights
05:21 psydruid; my generation is really the first in my family that had the opportunity to go to university, so becoming a doctor or an engineer wasn't really an option
05:21 matey; of course
05:21 matey; its like that for so many
05:23 matey; by the way if you see a good movie (or any movie) on t-series let me know-- i dont do netflix
05:23 matey; ive seen a bunch of them
05:23 matey; same for any other channel, if you watch movies at all i mean
05:23 psydruid; I do, but I don't watch that many
05:24 matey; i dont watch that many, though i try to
05:24 matey; subtitles arent important. sometimes i find them distracting but theyre not a dealbreaker
05:24 matey; theyre probably in 1/3 of what i watch
05:25 psydruid; with the number of languages I speak hindi movies are a small part of what I watch, although I do enjoy them at times
05:25 matey; of course
05:26 matey; and i never bother with english movies at all, not in years
05:26 psydruid; there are many older films also from shemaroo and yash raj
05:26 matey; i passionately hate hollywood
05:26 matey; i love yashraj
05:27 psydruid; I saw quite a mix of movies at film festivals
05:27 psydruid; I watch very little in the way of hollywood
05:27 matey; ive apart from the fact that the past 10-20 years are recycled everything
05:27 psydruid; it's all so hollow and inane
05:27 matey; i think to some degree thats true of bollywood too
05:28 psydruid; yes
05:28 matey; hollywood is like going to the mafia for entertainment
05:28 matey; as long as you have cash and never do anything they dont like, youre fine
05:28 psydruid; I've probably watched just as many Iranian movies over the years
05:28 matey; but you hear stories about what happens to other people, and youre like wtf
05:28 psydruid; which are not on netflix
05:29 matey; ive watched netflix just enough to be familiar with it
05:29 matey; but of course i dont own anything capable of playing it and ive never paid them for anything
05:29 matey; but ive lived with people who had it before
05:29 psydruid; I've never paid for it either
05:30 matey; i havent seen it in years, but ive binge watched stuff on it
05:30 matey; when people i know have technology id never want to own
05:30 matey; ill often play with it a couple times to get an idea
05:31 matey; ive used an xbox with the face recognition thing. i put something over my head too.
05:31 matey; i looked like the robot guy from the lmfao video
05:32 psydruid; it's just that you look for something on Netflix and you can't find anything
05:32 matey; granted ive only used an xbox about 3 times
05:32 psydruid; lol
05:32 matey; no, one of the experiences i had with netflix was that anything that was really good, they would pull after a few months!
05:32 matey; then they added commercials (that was after i stopped watching)
05:32 matey; and you pay them, to watch commercials
05:32 matey; wtf?
05:33 psydruid; movies from "unapproved country" in "unapproved language"
05:33 psydruid; zero results
05:33 psydruid; oh wow
05:33 matey; yeah thats when i deleted my youtube account
05:33 matey; when they started doing country restrictions i was like "you broke the internet, bye"
05:34 matey; didnt go back for years, then they wanted a phone number, so of course i didnt bother
05:34 psydruid; you can still get phone numbers without registration here
05:34 matey; sure
05:34 psydruid; but it's almost impossible anywhere else
05:34 matey; but its none of googles fucking business
05:34 activelow; don't ask what the remaining www experience is with netsurf-gtk gui browser and no other remaining
05:34 psydruid; yes
05:35 matey; which is only true by figure of speech, because of course googles business is literally being a nosy fuck
05:35 matey; i think weve all seen what the web is like with netsurf-gtk
05:36 activelow; yet i must admit, the remaining content is rather pleasent, no advertisements, no tracking, no cookies, no js, none of this
05:36 psydruid; I had my gmail account "recovered" a few days ago and they were asking for a current phone number, which I hadn't set
05:36 matey; google is terrible, i wouldnt host shit there
05:37 psydruid; if it doesn't work in netsurf, I consider it broken
05:37 matey; theres still some js worth loading (not a lot) and i have yet to see netsurf load any of it
05:37 psydruid; I have different e-mail addresses for different purposes
05:37 activelow; netsurf does implement the relevant w3c standards, these are _not_ obsolete, it is the content which doesn't recognize those standards anymore
05:37 matey; theres a js feature, aka crash instantly feature
05:38 matey; is netsurf to blame? probably. is pledge to blame? possibly
05:38 activelow; yes, too, with the w3c standards netsurf does implement, modern features including multimedia were possible too, yet GAFAM chose to implement theirs violating those w3c standards
05:38 matey; pledge is awesome but they wanted to get it working on ff simply because its basically a miracle
05:38 matey; and they did it
05:39 matey; sometimes you cant go to about:preferences but maybe thats reveal (which is less hardcoded anyway afaik)

05:51 TR Bot; My take on "You'll own nothing, and you'll be happy": lateblt LiveJournal
05:55 matey; abolishing private property would be better than letting the corporations abolish personal property
05:55 *DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving)
05:55 matey; and if everything is smart and controlled with drm, theres is no personal property
05:56 matey; your car, your computer, your stereo, your air conditioner, your appliances, everything is leased from the company that makes it
05:56 matey; theyre trying to absolish personal property, and keep private property
05:57 matey; when people realise that, they will be less upset about abolishing private property
05:57 matey; realising that the ultimately outcome of private property is that corporations own everything, and people own nothing at all
05:58 matey; thats the direction weve been headed in since steve ballmer ran microsoft
05:58 matey; steve ballmer didnt manage to get microsoft into the cloud
05:58 matey; but he set the wheels in motion. now hes one of the 10 richest people on earth. not exactly the image of a failure, even if he is insane

05:59 matey; where weve gotten to, at the hands of capitalism is basically this
05:59 matey; you can have 99% of the world own everything, OR
05:59 matey; you can have 1% of 1% of the world own everything
05:59 matey; pick one. there should be a third option-- theyve already gotten rid of it.
05:59 matey; so pick one.
06:00 matey; when enough people realise those are the choices, theyre going to choose to abolish private property, so that personal property isnt abolished
06:00 psydruid; I don't think people are aware of the extent to which they're being taken for a ride
06:00 matey; of course not
06:00 matey; the ride wouldnt last if people saw where it was going
06:01 matey; software is a microcosm of this
06:01 psydruid; or if they are aware if of they don't know what to do about it
06:01 matey; people like mincer assume its hopeless

06:05 matey; of course it would be incredibly naive to think that everythings going to be gandhi and sitins
06:06 matey; but for example, consider the american revolution

06:06 psydruid; I think that was rather a historical anomaly
06:06 matey; it really isnt, it just looks like one
06:06 matey; once you manage to put it in context of other things, it makes sense
06:06 matey; and paints SOME hope for the future

06:07 matey; im a pessimist constantly on the lookout for reasons to avoid being a nihilist
06:07 matey; and things are bad right now.
06:07 matey; but the thing is, the american revolution wasnt america attacking britain
06:08 matey; they got together and simply said "no more"
06:08 matey; no fucking more
06:08 matey; and britain said "ok, then we will attack you"
06:08 matey; and america fought back
06:08 matey; this of course, is an incredibly oversimplification
06:08 matey; but if you want to win a revolution, you dont START the fight
06:08 psydruid; we need more of that attitude now
06:08 matey; you start living the way you should live, and the fight will come to you
06:09 matey; more people should read about the russian revolution
06:09 matey; not because it will be the same
06:09 matey; revolutions arent cookie cutter, theyre incredibly depedendent on context
06:09 matey; other revolutions dont look the same
06:09 matey; no two are identical
06:09 matey; or whoever said history doesnt repeat itself, but it often rhymes
06:10 matey; youll know when revolution is here because everyone will be talking about it
06:10 matey; openly
06:10 schestowitz-TR; we are building a test machine for tuxmachines
06:10 matey; but if you look around, people are talking more and more
06:10 matey; everywhere
06:10 schestowitz-TR; devuan probably, might export to gemini also (160,000+ pages)
06:13 matey; one of the most important things for people to understand about revolution isnt even revolution
06:13 matey; but what counterrevolution looks like
06:13 matey; for free software, counterrevolution looks like (is) open source
06:13 matey; but history is full of counterrevolution
06:13 schestowitz-TR; maybe not initially
06:13 schestowitz-TR; OSI
06:14 matey; the conditions that led to stalinism and the conditions that led to the osi you see today are similar
06:14 matey; stalin, funnily enough, wasnt originally hitler
06:14 matey; he was originally just kind of a cunt
06:15 matey; like esr he was jealous of people like lenin and trotsky
06:15 matey; ultimately he had all the bolsheviks murdered
06:15 matey; the people who created the revolution, who won it-- he knew they were the greatest threat to his bureaucracy
06:16 matey; and at some point the bureaucracy became more important than the workers
06:16 matey; and once that happens, the workers are the threat
06:16 matey; stalin created a monster out of himself
06:17 psydruid; that's where we seem to be at when it comes to free^Wopen source software
06:17 matey; starved and murdered millions
06:17 matey; well at least esr isnt at the helm of this monstrosity
06:17 matey; but the "modest" beginnings of osi (which within one year were running off the track, if we believe perens in his 1999 letteR)
06:18 matey; had already co-opted free software
06:18 matey; and ive always tried to understand why
06:18 matey; ive spent years trying to come up with some reason other than "esr was jealous"
06:18 matey; ive looked at pretty much every story on techrights too
06:18 matey; minus the epo stuff
06:19 matey; ive even talked to esr
06:19 matey; stalins rise to power started modest-- and with jealous
06:19 matey; jealousy
06:20 matey; and it led to a chain reaction of sacrifices of good for less good
06:20 matey; leading to one of the most terrible governments in the history of civilisation
06:20 matey; by far
06:20 psydruid; esr's claim to fame was more important than letting free software thrive?
06:21 matey; and almost certainly inspiring the only ones that were worse (on a competing scale at least)
06:21 matey; esr's claim to fame was more important than letting free software thrive? <- almost beyond any doubt

06:22 *SomeH4x0r (~someh4xx@xeybr9fx3btrk.irc) has joined #techrights
06:22 psydruid; wasn't he put there as a puppet for the closed source software industry?
06:22 matey; kirk mckusick of bsd and freebsd
06:22 SomeH4x0r; hi
06:22 schestowitz-TR; 0.
06:22 matey; says of linus
06:23 matey; linus said that if bsd had been available (at&t lawsuit etc)
06:23 matey; he wouldnt have written linux
06:23 matey; but then by the time bsd was freely available, linux was a thing
06:23 psydruid;
06:23 matey; and i think mckusick was sort of joking that at that point he could have simply ported / adapted a better (bsd) kernel instead
06:23 matey; but by then it was running on its own steam
06:24 matey; so today we have this... i mean you can see what linux is not
06:24 matey; is now ^
06:24 matey; its a sort of corporate gangbang now
06:24 psydruid; a nice throwaway kernel
06:24 matey; fsvo nice
06:24 psydruid; lol
06:25 matey; but linux and open source (hand in hand) were absolutely a counterrevolution
06:25 psydruid; I think linux may get abandoned before any of the less corporate kernels
06:25 matey; and i think both open source and the kernel are the way they are because of ego stuff
06:25 matey; and i mean ego stuff is common
06:25 psydruid; even illumos may outlive it at some point
06:25 matey; but the level of... fuckery
06:26 matey; i cant imagine illumos ever being relevant, but you know a lot more about this shit than i do
06:27 matey; i originally turned my nose up at mp3 because id always wanted flac
06:27 matey; and except for a couple experiments, ive simply never used flac
06:27 psydruid; it still does quite a few things better than gnu/linux does, but its footprint is too large
06:27 matey; but when mp3 came out i was like "bah, why"
06:27 psydruid; so while gnu/linux ballooned, so did Illumos
06:27 matey; flac is the ccompressed music i imagined before it existed
06:27 matey; not mp3
06:28 matey; its footprint is too larg <- linux is already a beat
06:28 matey; beast
06:28 matey; i mean we should be able to port software to tiny things
06:28 matey; maybe not internet of trash tiny
06:28 psydruid; I only created mp3s on a per case basis
06:28 matey; but you know, we should be able to use the same os on a router and a mainframe really
06:29 psydruid; now there isn't a point anymore
06:29 matey; whether its the best option is another matter
06:29 psydruid; linux is also becoming too large, which us natural
06:29 matey; i dont think natural is the right word
06:29 matey; maybe you mean typical
06:30 psydruid; but therefore other things will take its place
06:30 matey; some projects stay small without being abandoned
06:30 psydruid; well, typical is probably the right word
06:30 psydruid; but it happens even to BSD kernels
06:30 matey; sure, you can bastardise bsd like anything else
06:31 matey; how the ecosystem works around that is what matters
06:31 psydruid; OpenBSD kernels have grown in size too over the years
06:31 matey; i know stallman hates that word. if he cant offer a replacement and the concept is useful then its too fucking bad
06:32 matey; OpenBSD kernels have grown in size too over the years <- of course
06:32 matey; but its not a dumping ground the way that linux is
06:32 matey; and if it was, someone would (hopefully) fork it into a non-dumping ground
06:33 matey; the thing i worry about most is whether its forkable
06:33 psydruid; I think the world needed at least one dumping ground
06:33 matey; if its forkable you can salvage it, if its forkable you have freedom 3
06:33 matey; if its pretend-forkable like a lot of gnu, theres no freedom 3, its imaginary
06:33 psydruid; that doesn't mean we should all use that dumping ground
06:33 matey; I think the world needed at least one dumping ground <- windows isnt good enough?
06:34 psydruid; unfortunately not
06:34 matey; the harder it is to fork, the more doomed it is
06:34 psydruid; it doesn't even meet Linux's already low standards
06:35 matey; this is basic freedom 3, but from an angle the fsf gets wrong
06:35 matey; so they fail to protect freedom 3, even while demanding it in theory
06:36 matey; they have a piece of paper that says you have freedom 3 on paper
06:36 matey; but you cant find freedom 3 in the wild
06:36 matey; you just have to trust god
06:36 matey; stallmans an atheist, he should know better
06:37 matey; freedom 0, freedom 1, freedom 2 and faith 3
06:37 psydruid; it looks like going to trial in a sham court
06:38 matey; one guy in here says he knows some people who forked the linux kernel so maybe im wrong
06:38 psydruid; as long as you can parrot the freedoms you are free to live as a parrot
06:38 matey; but i dont think the world is going to see a linux fork
06:38 psydruid; I hope the world will see many linux forks
06:38 psydruid; but I don't think it's going to happen
06:39 matey; the thing is, if you have something thats underrated and easy to fork
06:39 matey; and you have something thats overrated and really difficult to fork
06:39 matey; its not hard to guess whats going to happen in terms of forks later on
06:39 activelow; OpenBSD switched to llvm/clang
06:39 psydruid; other than the "forks" that already exist on current kernel developers' drives
06:39 matey; i think everyone is going to switch to llvm/clang. i am not saying this as a fan.
06:40 matey; i taught someone how to use gcc recently
06:40 matey; theyve used it since then
06:40 activelow; a kernel which can be compiled with a c++ compiler only (llvm is a c++ compiler, written in c++), no thanks
06:40 activelow; and the BSD pushed aggresively towards llvm, linux too
06:41 matey; i wonder when c became impossibly bloated under our noses really
06:41 matey; another mystery
06:41 psydruid; I think it's going to happen too
06:41 psydruid; but for reasons of hackability
06:41 matey; mincer will like my associates quote "bloat is sort of like the state"
06:42 activelow; C itself, although troublesome, isn't impossibly; it is the compilers, with a demaracation line drawn at C11 features
06:43 activelow; *isn't impossibly bloated
06:43 matey; actually it was "bloat is a lot like the state, really."
06:44 matey; "it is the compilers" first it is the compilers
06:44 matey; then it is the compiled programs
06:44 matey; then the language changes
06:45 matey; we can use sane languages while programs are written in them
06:45 matey; then when programs shift towards insane languages, so do we
06:45 matey; and its via the compilers but ultimately its the culture that shits itself
06:45 matey; the only solution is to fix the culture-- the software will echo the culture
06:46 matey; if the culture is sane the tools will be sane
06:46 matey; if not at first then as they are worked on
06:46 matey; and vice versa, if the culture is nuts, the tools will be ridiculous
06:46 psydruid; it's failure on multiple levels
06:46 matey; yes
06:46 matey; but tools always conform to culture, with exceptions that come and go
06:47 matey; tools can change culture, but only if culture is ready to make the mistake (or progress)
06:47 matey; culture is always at a crossroads
06:47 matey; sometimes it makes a good choice, other times it does something really stupid
06:47 psydruid; if no one documented how the first free software was developed people are doomed to reinvent it, because the process got lost
06:47 matey; youre talking about collective history
06:48 matey; which is one of the most important things about a culture
06:48 matey; its fucking nearly synonymous
06:48 matey; collective historical awareness
06:48 matey; has much more to do with the present than the past
06:49 matey; the past didnt just shape the present once
06:49 matey; it is constantly shaping the present
06:49 matey; the future also shapes the present
06:49 matey; although people dont think of it that way
06:49 matey; their perception of the future is constantly shaping the present
06:50 matey; but their perception of the past does at least as much
06:50 matey; if we dont understand the past, we fuck with the present and the future
06:50 matey; most of the most important information we have comes from the past
06:50 psydruid; if there were history books (unix v7, MINIX, bsd), you could go back and build a better future from there skipping over the present

07:07 matey; sure, the thing about blanket statements is none of them are true <- for kingoffrance
07:08 psydruid; "world economic forum" for "society"
07:08 matey; heh
07:09 matey; madmen and upper class twits
07:09 psydruid; makes me want to colonize mars to get away from all of these twats
07:09 psydruid; but mincer would say the problem is us humans
07:11 chunky; how can i cure my systemd dependence?
07:11 psydruid; you are on freebsd so you have no systemd
07:12 matey; mincer has run out of solutions
07:12 matey; with that said hes funny as hell and smarter than average
07:12 matey; being smart sucks
07:12 matey; it means you too often know how full of shit people are
07:12 matey; how bullshit so many things are
07:12 matey; being smart makes you more likely to feel depressed and hopeless
07:13 matey; as the same time, fighting that all your life can make you seriously fucking hilarious.
07:13 matey; or suicidal
07:13 matey; mincer is both
07:13 matey; hes an extremely funny person, and hes waiting for the entire species to kill itself
07:13 matey; suicide by proxy, times billions
07:14 matey; im not saying hes likely to off himself, just that he wouldnt say no to the entire species doing it
07:14 matey; but thats a KIND of suicidal.
07:14 psydruid; then he wins
07:15 matey; theres a talk that daniel quinn gave once called "the little engine that couldnt"
07:15 matey; which is very much a response to what mincer says
07:15 chunky; psydruid: i use arch on this machine
07:15 matey; but this idea that the human race itself is so fundamentally fucked that it cant justify its existence
07:15 chunky; i have a laptop w/ freebsd and i run it on any servers where i get to choose the OS
07:15 matey; humanity is still fucking young
07:16 matey; look at a toddler ffs
07:16 matey; how can a toddler justify its existence? its the centre of its own universe and simply destroys everything until it gets its way
07:16 activelow; there isn't any clean distribution remaining; not at least BaphometOS, which requires gcc-4.7 still
07:16 matey; then it carries on its reign of destruction, while crying, laughing and shitting everywhere
07:17 matey; and this grows into something that can give a shit about other people
07:17 activelow; nonetheless, my IRC box and firewall are already migrated to the c-only system profile of baphometos
07:17 matey; something that can reason and create and plan and make sense (sometimes)
07:17 activelow; meaning, if it can be fed into tinycc compiler, baphometos will be the _last_ remaining
07:17 matey; its very clear that humanity is in a toddler like state
07:18 matey; or maybe its teens
07:18 matey; and you know teen angst and teen suicide are very common themes
07:18 matey; humanity needs to grow up, and its trying
07:18 activelow; currently, baphometos is the last line of defense against gnu/linux/gcc and bsd/llvm distributions
07:19 matey; its hard to look at a pissed off teen whose life is going nowhere, and try to figure out what you can even do with such a person
07:19 matey; and yet some people manage just that
07:19 matey; i havent given up on humanity yet, though ive gotten awfully close a bunch of times
07:19 matey; to where im like "yeah, go ahead humanity, just kill yourself"
07:20 matey; but usually only for a day.
07:20 matey; i havent got that outlook like mincer does
07:20 matey; and yet i agree with him on like 95% of the problem
07:20 matey; its the rest of the picture that makes the world of difference
07:21 matey; the thing is, even mincer still sort of believes in human evolution as a concept
07:21 matey; but its obvious he barely manages to cling to it
07:21 psydruid; mincer loves minced meat
07:22 matey; i dont think ive ever had it
07:22 matey; unless it was an ingredient in something
07:22 psydruid; that was figuratively speaking
07:23 matey; im not hopeless about free software either
07:23 matey; its just that a lot of shits going to be very ugly
07:23 psydruid; one of the things I realized a long time ago is that you can't stop people from dying
07:23 matey; and i have no patiences for people polishing a golden turd
07:23 psydruid; I'm not pessimistic at all
07:24 psydruid; it's just that gnu/linux is an evolutionary dead end
07:24 matey; its missing freedom 3
07:25 matey; but it swears otherwise, so thats the same as actually having it
07:25 activelow; freedom 3, which was?
07:25 psydruid; but baphometos can save it and also humanity
07:25 matey; REALLY, YOU HAVE IT! LOOK AT THE LICENSE!
07:25 psydruid; and the galaxy
07:25 matey; i think baph is most useful as a tutorial
07:25 matey; and performance art
07:25 matey; if more people watched baph being made
07:26 matey; they woudl learn something
07:26 matey; it might change the way they do things
07:26 matey; this is about all the praise i can muster for something based on the linux kernel
07:26 matey; but im not being charitable
07:26 matey; and im not joking either
07:30 psydruid; you are being fair
07:33 matey; i always try to be fair
07:33 matey; its neither easy nor (imo) simple
07:33 matey; because people are fucked up, almost like mincer says
07:33 matey; almost
07:33 matey; also i didnt learn fairness from my parents
07:34 matey; i had to teach myself
07:34 matey; i mean everybody can be fair to themselves, except masochists
07:34 matey; simple, just give yourself loads of slack
07:34 matey; being fair to other people is tricky
07:35 matey; im using the word masochists as a joke, lots of people are actually really hard on themselves
07:35 matey; for various reasons
07:35 matey; suicide almost always happens to the wrong people
07:36 matey; its almost never the people who can really make the world a better place by doing that
07:36 matey; but lets say youre fair to yourself
07:36 matey; being fair to other people is usually the tricky bit
07:37 SomeH4x0r; could go to some corporation building and bomb oneself
07:37 matey; i dont think that would help much
07:37 matey; ive never seen much accomplished by people doing that either
07:37 matey; the best way to be a martyr is to get killed by someone other than yourself
07:38 matey; also martyrdom is not necessarily the best route to progress
07:39 matey; martyrs have get this idea that the best way to get progress is to figure out how much your life is worth
07:39 matey; and then they just try to cash that in on a one-time payment
07:39 matey; you can make an economic argument that its stupid. i think most people go for an argument that its insane
07:39 matey; but im sceptical that its the most useful course of action
07:41 matey; che guevara was a martyr, and imo roughly useless as a revolutionary
07:41 matey; he probably did everything wrong
07:42 matey; most revolutionaries that make any sense dont propose anything remotely like what he did
07:42 matey; starting out by resorting to violence in general is fucking stupid
07:42 matey; thats not the same as being pacifist
07:43 matey; somewhere between gandhi and che theres a good idea
07:43 matey; but theres an awful lot of ideas between gandhi and che
07:44 matey; gandhi was a bit of a charlatan
07:44 matey; a lot of people i know would laugh at the understatement
07:45 matey; i like thoreau and mlk
07:46 matey; thoreau inspired both gandhi and mlk, and one of the reasons he was a minimalist was "voluntary poverty" to avoid being taxed and having taxes go to wars he thought were bullshit
07:46 matey; not because he was a pacifist, afaik he just didnt like profiteering
07:47 matey; thoreau inspires a lot of my approach to software
07:48 matey; though so does one gandhi quote, from the movie, which may not even be his
07:51 matey; for whatever reason, gandhi pushed the importance of homespun fabric
07:51 matey; the mainstream western version of this is "buy local"
07:53 matey; i got so tired of stores using "buy local" as an opportunity to milk customer and craftmaker alike that i wanted to wear a parody shirt to mock it
07:54 matey; i wanted something to show two objects with quantum entanglement and for it to say "bi-local"
07:54 matey; but i didnt think people would get it was a protest, and i dont have shirts made very often
07:54 matey; it still would be a fun shirt though
07:55 *ziraffep (~ziraffep@m6mhvnug8q7ae.irc) has joined #techrights

08:04 matey; he also signed the anti-rms letter
08:04 activelow; if a static site generator suffices, i'll choose this
08:05 SomeH4x0r; I should have signed both letters just for fun
08:06 chunky; hugo is a very good static site generator
08:08 matey; /me is sure its fun for 3000 idiots to say all sorts of horrible generally untrue things about you and then sign it while demanding for a second time you get deposed from the very thing you founded thirty fucking years ago
08:09 matey; but some people just dont give a fuck
08:14 matey; at any rate i can be pretty sure that 90%+ of the people who signed it dont give a shit about my freedom, nor stallmans, and not likely anyone elses
08:14 matey; but im not a statistician, so i cant be completely sure
08:15 matey; ironically, mjg is. he MIGHT be able to help me figure it out, but i wouldnt count on it.
08:16 matey; then again, taking it in school and doing it on a daily basis are two different things
08:17 matey; but lets assume for one moment theyre the same, and-- same conclusion
08:17 matey; we could simply invoke sturgeons law
08:20 mjg59_; My stats is pretty out of date
08:21 mjg59_; Over a decade since I really did statistical analysis of anything
08:21 matey; it was mostly rhetorical
08:21 matey; still you have far more statistics training than i do
08:21 mjg59_; I even used to teach some!
08:21 matey; there you go
08:22 mjg59_; It's usually taught dreadfully
08:22 matey; most things are
08:22 matey; teaching i figure, isnt taught well either
08:22 matey; though i dont always blame the teachers. schools DO get in the way
08:22 matey; and the state in the way of the schools
08:22 matey; sometimes in good ways, and certainly not always
08:23 mjg59_; Eh this was at Cambridge, I think blaming the teachers there is legit
08:23 matey; ive never heard of a school where all the teachers were good

08:39 SomeH4x0r; no idea why would one go work into a weird education system which damages children mental health for their entire life
08:40 matey; i think a lot of people view university as separate from that
08:40 matey; which i agree and disagree with
08:40 SomeH4x0r; past child education it is probably different
08:40 matey; child education has barely evolved in 1000 years, though its certainly scaled up a bit
08:41 SomeH4x0r; I meant to say adult education
08:41 matey; also children are beaten less, though most abuse (at school or anywhere else) isnt physical in nature
08:41 SomeH4x0r; governments treats children as slaves of their parents
08:41 matey; yes and no
08:42 matey; one of the goals of marxism is to make it so that children arent property of the state or their parents
08:42 SomeH4x0r; some restrictions of course, but otherwise yes
08:42 SomeH4x0r; I'm for banning of reproduction
08:42 matey; in a society where basic needs are taken care of, you dont technically have to raise, feed or even clothe your kids
08:43 matey; I'm for banning of reproduction <- somehow i think thats worse
08:43 matey; china and nazi germany have both toyed with that idea, rather infamously
08:43 matey; unfortunately mike godwin was still born
08:44 matey; or i should say, born anyway
08:44 SomeH4x0r; though I got my mental health damaged by parent stupidity and I am now unhappy when I see kids or pets
08:44 matey; a lot of mental health problems are treatable
08:44 matey; which isnt as good as prevention obviously
08:45 matey; but prevention isnt the last option
08:46 SomeH4x0r; won't forget "baby talk" and not taking children seriously, and lies
08:47 matey; i think baby talk is well intentioned
08:48 matey; its always been my inclination to talk to babies with normal language
08:48 SomeH4x0r; years of my life were wasted on stupid things my parents have had no interest in, but pretended like they did
08:48 matey; i dont think most people have great parents
08:48 matey; some at least have decent parents
08:49 SomeH4x0r; I don't talk to kids, at least on purpose. Thanks to evil laws, if one is less than 13 on the Internet, they'd better not disclose it.
08:49 matey; that was a naive law, at best
08:50 matey; its the sort of law they pass to prevent a mob
08:50 SomeH4x0r; oh, though I talk to some people who are less than 18, but I don't treat them any different
08:51 SomeH4x0r; wasting one's time on purpose is not productive at all, and people generally don't know when they die
08:52 matey; unfortunatly society is full of time sinks
08:52 SomeH4x0r; parents waste 18 years of their lives at least. A lot can happen during this time, wars escalate in a few days sometimes.
08:53 matey; a lot of parents dont consider it a waste of time
08:53 SomeH4x0r; I want to not have persistent people in my home, so they don't annoy me
08:54 SomeH4x0r; I don't get marriage and childbirth
08:54 matey; i think your take on this is highly subjective and probably doesnt explain society in general
08:54 matey; of course everyones take is subjective, some takes more than others
08:55 matey; marriage of course isnt required for childbirth
08:56 matey; a lot of people prefer childbirth in a situation where someone has promised to help them for a really long time
08:57 matey; childbirth isnt required for marriage either
08:57 matey; some people just like knowing someone has promised to help them for a really long time
08:59 SomeH4x0r; it is weird, I don't imagine having children with my IRC friends no matter what they do
08:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 15.66 k/sec., IPFS upstream 91.26 average k/sec., average swarm size 286.81
08:59 matey; i dont think thats weird
08:59 matey; most people dont imagine having kids with someone until theyve at least met in person
09:00 matey; id say if youre not inclined to think of anyone as a life partner, youre a lot less likely to imagine having kids with them
09:01 SomeH4x0r; and I'm just too tired from my parents, would need to spend a while without persistent people at least before I feel better, if I ever do
09:01 matey; of course
09:01 matey; then again, if you dont want kids, you shouldnt have them
09:02 SomeH4x0r; I want offline AI to talk with
09:02 SomeH4x0r; though I won't want it anymore at some point as computers would turn into government abuse machines
09:02 matey; are you certain that would fulfil your needs for communication?
09:03 matey; yeah i mean most machines can be listened to from either the airwaves or the electrical system
09:04 matey; if you managed to shield your computer and monitor and keyboard sufficiently, its still possible to tap the power to your home
09:04 SomeH4x0r; not sure, though not sure if a properly isolated human would fulfil them either
09:04 matey; why isolated?
09:04 SomeH4x0r; so they don't leak stuff
09:05 SomeH4x0r; I try not to put random stuff I hear into search engines. Others probably will.
09:05 matey; i think you have an exaggerated case of a reasonable concern there
09:06 matey; or an extreme case of a reasonable concern

09:15 matey; healthy relationships are based on the right level of trust
09:15 matey; too trusting and youll be taken advantage of, sometimes, maybe often
09:16 matey; not trusting enough and youll never gain the full benefits of friendship
09:16 matey; i started talking to a girl not too long ago, just as a friend
09:16 matey; shes in her late 30s
09:17 matey; she let me into her home to give me something, even though i did not need to enter her home to get it
09:17 matey; she joined me for lunch but was against either of us eating in her home, which is perfectly reasonable
09:18 matey; though from the details of what she said it was clear she trusted me enough to let me into her home, as long as i didnt stay there for lunch
09:18 matey; which i personally think is a bit weird, but not terribly
09:18 matey; i suppose lunch is a different level of comfortable than letting me in for a moment, even when i didnt need to enter at all
09:19 matey; but the point is that the entire time i knew her
09:19 matey; it was a mix of randomly displaying comfort and trust and the lack of an ordinary level of comfort and trust
09:19 SomeH4x0r; I have issues socializing irl, it is better on the Internet, but then the government will take the Internet and I will have to leave
09:19 matey; if there had been an adequate level of communication we could have worked around that
09:20 matey; but every conversation was the same way as the rest of the interaction
09:20 matey; she clearly has trust issues and i appreciate that
09:20 matey; but i was unable to find a way to navigate those, tried as i might
09:20 matey; ultimately i decided to leave her alone, as i felt that would make her more comfortable
09:21 matey; i appreciate her making the effort, and i tried to return the favour
09:21 matey; but i just didnt have any confidence it was doing either of us any good
09:22 matey; she has 5 ways to contact me-- more than most (i didnt supply all of them)
09:22 matey; she hasnt used any of them, i think i made the right choice.
09:23 matey; or maybe she feels bad, but either way it was just way too much trouble
09:25 matey; do you have cb radio in your country?
09:26 matey; ive known people who have serious problems interacting with people (on and off the spectrum) who enjoyed dealing with people over radio instead
09:26 matey; one is a ham operator but uses it a lot like cb
09:26 matey; the other had a cb radio in her home
09:27 matey; before the internet was common, a number of people had cb radios in their homes
09:27 SomeH4x0r; no idea if there is, but I only have FM receivers

10:07 matey; long story
10:07 matey; but seriously, im calling burnout
10:08 matey; i just wasnt expecting it from him
10:09 matey; i still think hes cool by the way
10:09 matey; burnout makes people quit
10:09 matey; or think they have to
10:14 matey; as for how to live without a state...
10:14 matey; humanity has done that for most of its existence
10:14 activelow; "humanity" is an _abstract_
10:14 matey; fair enough
10:15 matey; by "humanity" i mean the billions of people on the face of the planet at a given time
10:15 matey; in this instance i mean the ones on the planet right now
10:15 matey; though i wont promise to never speak of humanity in a historical context
10:15 activelow; unspecific again, then how do the billions live, where and when?
10:16 matey; actually in this instance im speaking of all the people who have lived on earth up to and including this point
10:16 matey; unspecific again <- you want me to be specific about every person ever?
10:16 activelow; even tribal societies establish some social order etc.; which served survival, and without it extinction
10:16 matey; thats not entirely reasonable is it?
10:18 matey; take the sum of the experience of the species homo sapiens, cut that in half, and even less of it has ever pertained to experience of a "state" of any sort
10:18 matey; in terms of government
10:18 matey; anarchy is natural, but more importantly its a default.
10:19 matey; the state is an exception
10:19 matey; sort of like internal combustion vehicles or copyright law
10:20 matey; most of the time that homo sapiens have existed, copyright, internal combusion vehicles and state governments did not exist
10:21 matey; of course since that time weve also been to outer space, developed treatments for diabetics and cancer patients, and harnessed (to some degree) the atom
10:22 matey; and if we arent careful, we will attribute those achievements to things that existed in the same timeframe, whether the credit can truly go to those or not
10:23 matey; but the state is a powerful drug, and people get addicted to it, and feel threatened without it
10:24 activelow; if you attribute "anarchy" with "natural", you're again resorting to some _abstract_; and again some type of natural order isn't anarchist - rather the opposite
10:24 matey; my argument doesnt depend on anarchy being natural
10:24 matey; the only reason i mention it is to show that our species has ALREADY managed to live without a state
10:25 activelow; it hasn't
10:25 matey; really
10:25 matey; so um
10:25 matey; how old is the state then?
10:25 matey; i mean how far back was the first one?
10:25 activelow; yet, a "government" isn't the state; or whatever else you are referring to with "the state"
10:26 matey; whether you call it government or state
10:26 matey; i think its safe to say that its newer than homo sapiens
10:26 matey; but maybe you know something i dont
10:26 activelow; well, this distinction is important, what government and state were
10:26 activelow; and both existed since the beginning, of homo
10:27 matey; that sounds a lot like rewriting history to me
10:28 activelow; within any family clan, if any social order exists, which it does, almost always among homo sapiens, then this establish both some "state", the social order, and any type of authority/ruler of it
10:28 matey; ah i see
10:28 activelow; anyway, why would anyone leave the server over a dispute concerning this?
10:28 matey; so you consider any form of social order to be government or state
10:29 matey; anyway, why would anyone leave the server over a dispute concerning this? <- burnout
10:29 matey; he was literally so tired of arguing that he decided not to anymore
10:29 activelow; the social order _is_ the state, yet states may exist without any excessive authority (government)
10:30 chunky; damn.. i miss kingoffrance..
10:32 matey; the social order _is_ the state <- not that i want to
10:32 matey; but somehow i think if we explore that idea far enough we will debunk it
10:33 matey; im content to simply disagree
10:34 matey; german communism is notoriously obtuse and i wouldnt really expect german concepts of state to be different
10:34 matey; i dont even know if germany is to blame here
10:35 matey; only that politically speaking... i mean i wouldnt be too surprised

12:14 DaemonFC; schestowitz, People go to Walmart for oil changes and they shouldn't.
12:15 DaemonFC; Walmart costs about the same as a dealer oil change with a coupon, except that Walmart makes you wait 4 hours somehow to trap you in the stupid store.
12:16 DaemonFC; Then they have people who aren't mechanics work on your car for minimum wage. Half the time they strip out or round the oil pan drain plug, or cross thread it, or don't put oil in, and that will do a lot of damage to your wallet obviously.
12:16 DaemonFC; ANd then if you file an engine damage claim, Walmart is their own insurance company and goes "We're Walmart. Sue us. LOL".
12:17 DaemonFC; Half the time if you ask them for an air filter to be installed, they managed to break the retainer clips on your air intake box, and the other half the time they don't even do it, and still charge you for it.
12:18 DaemonFC; Of course, that all assumes that they agree to do anything to your car to begin with. THEY ARE PICKY. If your car has ANY quirks at all, they make you wait 4 hours and page you back to the automotive center and refuse to do the service.

12:43 DaemonFC; <zuka> whats the site that tell you what oil is suitable to what car?
12:44 zuka; yes?
12:44 DaemonFC; Not sure. Typically, if it says you use 5w20, 5w30, or 5w40 in the owner's manual, you can use the corresponding 0wxx for the car.
12:45 DaemonFC; And a good rule is that engines that say you can use conventional oil will wear less on synthetic, but engines that specify full synthetic must not use conventional.
12:45 DaemonFC; Or it will do serious damage.
12:46 zuka; so whats the site?
12:46 DaemonFC; I just look at the manufacturer's manual or TSB.
12:46 DaemonFC; Ford said run the 1996 Crown Victoria with 5w30, but later said you could use 5w20 back to 1992.
12:46 DaemonFC; So I ran it on 0w20 for years and nothing bad ever happened.

18:30 psydruid; adobe is offerings its applications on the web these days
18:30 matey; lol
18:30 bnchs_; adobe is the ONLY reason
18:30 bnchs_; why people stay on windows
18:30 bnchs_; that and abandonware

18:30 bnchs_; you can use wine in the latter

18:31 matey; watching a windows user use adobe would be like watching an amish person using a self-service kiosk at starbucks

18:34 matey; sure, you could
18:34 matey; i mean blender has been used the same way
18:34 matey; not that i can figure out how
18:35 bnchs_; adobe flash is good for beginners because it doesnt overcomplicate shit
18:35 mjg59_; It's often easier for businesses to account for ongoing costs rather than up-front costs

18:37 matey; the whole idea of basing software choices on finance depts falls apart if you get rid of capitalism
18:37 bnchs_; maybe because you can simply use it without that much knowledge of the software
18:37 matey; of course then it moves from finance depts to financial planning, but its not exactly the same
18:38 mjg59_; And, of course, if you want meaningful support you're paying per month anyway

18:41 psydruid; everyone should be a developer
18:41 schestowitz-TR; People are consumers
18:41 schestowitz-TR; consumed by corporations

18:41 matey; not professionally, not even well
18:41 matey; just enough to have some idea how it works
18:42 matey; literacy would be so much better
18:42 matey; people would be better armed to understand whats being done to them
18:42 psydruid; software as products doesn't seem to make much sense
18:42 matey; of course microsoft already hijacks that
18:42 matey; coding itself
18:42 schestowitz-TR; it is infeasible in some parts of the world
18:42 bnchs_; matey: they dont like that
18:42 matey; so that too has to be fought, but people being code literate still helps
18:42 bnchs_; they rather want people to consume
18:42 mjg59_; The problem here is that proprietary software generally doesn't allow you to get your support from someone else
18:42 schestowitz-TR; even language literacy is low in some countries
18:42 psydruid; but maybe that's because of how primitive this field still is
18:42 matey; proprietary software generally doesn't allow you to get your support from someone else <- also true, at least in part
18:43 matey; its more true to say that proprietary software companies have an unfair advantage in support
18:43 matey; because they can have undocumented features or change things at will
18:43 mjg59_; I don't see the move to a subscription model as meaningfully worse than the previous model in that respect
18:43 matey; its worse in other respects
18:43 mjg59_; matey: Also, if the issue I'm hitting is that there's a bug or missing feature, nobody else has the right to fix that for me
18:44 matey; moving to a situation where the developers have even more control, while users have even less, is the problem
