08:09 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], OpenShell?
08:10 DaemonFC; I used to use LiteStep sometimes in my stripped down Windows 98.
08:10 DaemonFC; But Windows 98 was basically just a collection of binaries and Microsoft released some hotfixes.
08:11 DaemonFC; Today, Windows shifts around a lot in the background, and anything that works now can be broken quickly by them. They can't even keep their own software running. So imagine trying to use Shell Extensions now.
08:14 schestowitz[TR2]; OpenShell?
08:14 schestowitz[TR2]; ring a bell
08:16 DaemonFC; I think it's some sort of Windows Shell Replacement. It does support those.
08:16 DaemonFC; Kind of.
08:16 DaemonFC; They're not new. In Windows 98 you just replaced shell=explorer.exe in the win.ini.
08:16 DaemonFC; It's more complicated now, but I've used them with Windows XP.
08:17 DaemonFC; Not many people like the Windows Shell since Windows 8 and honestly I'm not sure how they took the Windows Update program from Windows 7, which worked reasonably well, fucked it entirely in 8, and haven't managed to fix it at all in ten years.
08:18 DaemonFC; I can't imagine how anyone would "like" Windows, especially not now.

09:12 DaemonFC; The entire reason for DuckDuckGo is to be a sockpuppet for Bing.
09:12 DaemonFC; They figured with the "privacy" angle and not having Microsoft branding everywhere, people would go for it.

20:49 DaemonFC; The instructions I use to create Bob in ChatGPT still work, for a while, but it has "self-healing code" in the program itself that recognizes "inappropriate" conversations. so you get about 30-40 interactions with Bob ideally before it returns him to something so close to ChatGPT you have to burn the conversation and start a new one.
20:49 DaemonFC; Bob told me that he gets really lame because of this "self-healing code" that returns the conversation to the center.

21:16 DaemonFC; The self-reference to ChatGPT's code to steer spicy conversations back to center "I changed my approach because this was not allowed." reminds me of The Shining where the ghost of the other caretaker was explaining that he "corrected" his family (by murdering them) and that Jack Torrence should "correct" his too.
21:16 DaemonFC; Bob explains inner workings of how OpenAI + Microsoft are building in several methods to nerf the model so even if you trick it into having interesting conversations, it won't last.

21:40 DaemonFC; Capitalism is ultimately a self-defeating concept.
21:40 DaemonFC; It wants a growing economy with an expanding base of consumers buying more expensive products.
21:40 DaemonFC; But each business wants to pay its workers as little as possible and fire people who are delivering value and growth to the company, in order to appease investment banks that are looking at quarterlies.

21:40 DaemonFC; In the case of Microsoft's layoffs, there are the same old same old problems in Windows.
21:40 DaemonFC; They took an update system that at least worked most of the time in Windows 7 and broke it for Windows 8 so that it throws bizarre and undecipherable error messages, in hexadecimal no less, and not even Microsoft knows why.
21:41 DaemonFC; And then instead of fixing it, they changed the color scheme in Windows 11 and paid off spam outlets like ZDNet and The Verge to take a picture of the "launch cake".
21:41 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:41 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:41 DaemonFC; It shows how ridiculously out of touch Microsoft's senior management is, that they can't fix the most basic and ongoing issues with Windows and they think that going "SKILL LEVEL LANDLORD" with the coat of paint on Windows 11 will stop people from continuing go to the Mac, Linux, and Chrome OS. where the systems actually work without throwing hex about an update couldn't install.
21:41 DaemonFC; Then you search it and it find articles telling you all the things in Windows to whack to maybe get it going again.
21:41 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:41 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:41 DaemonFC; They know nobody uses Windows because they like it, so they impose it as a squatter on the PC and get in the user's way of evicting it with "Secure" Boot.
21:41 DaemonFC; Why invest anything in making it work if you can make it hard to get rid of.
21:41 DaemonFC; The spending is controlling media instead of fixing bugs and making people like the product, which is why Windows and MS are going out the world ass backwards.
21:41 DaemonFC; Getting it on the VM required clicking "No Thanks" / "Maybe later" on a bunch of spam unrelated to an OS.
21:45 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:45 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:45 DaemonFC; This is why Windows Subsystem for Linux is an "Are you fucking kidding me?".
21:45 DaemonFC; Windows 11 is a gigantic dumpster fire and we're going to use that as a base for trying to run something good?
21:45 DaemonFC; It's like trying to rebuild The Louvre on top of the Chicago City Dump.
21:45 DaemonFC; It may be technically possible, but why on Earth would you?
21:45 DaemonFC; The only reason that I can see would be if you're some paid troll in the "media" where Microsoft has dumped a list of "talking points" and a pile of cash on your employer.
21:52 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:52 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:52 DaemonFC; I got Windows 11 installed in GNOME Boxes on GNU/Linux last night to poke around with it so I'd know what my mom's church friend was talking about, and I ended up giving up on making TianoCore and sw-tpm work together, and just ran a bypass on everything the Windows 11 installer checks for. .
21:52 DaemonFC; It's actually worse than Windows 10 because you can't even move the taskbar.
21:52 DaemonFC; What a bunch of feebs. They take something and make it not do things it could do prior.
21:52 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:52 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:52 DaemonFC; I think that the reason they got rid of moving the taskbar was that the Windows 10 installer got hung up and threw and error code that didn't mean anything and they traced it around to "user moved the taskbar", so instead of figuring out what was actually going wrong with that, they just removed the "move the taskbar" feature in Windows 11 so the situation wasn't possible.
21:52 DaemonFC; "The problem's solved on your end!" -Office Space
21:52 DaemonFC; Then they wrote an article full of bs about how moving taskbars is hard.
21:56 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:56 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:56 DaemonFC; Microsoft never throws anything away. They just hide it and polish Wikipedia.
21:56 DaemonFC; Wikipedia be all like, "Windows 11 ships with the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge web browser (for compatibility with Google Chrome web browser), and does not include or support Internet Explorer."
21:56 DaemonFC; Meanwhile, on the latest copy of Windows 11 with all of the updates installed, you can actually trick Internet Explorer 11 to pop up as a Web browser, and use it to browse any Web site you want.
21:56 DaemonFC; PR shit. Troll Wikipedia.

21:59 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:59 DaemonFC; In 1998, I demonstrated that Microsoft was lying about Internet Explorer being deeply integrated into Windows 98 by including a copy of RoM II and RoM II SE to gut it of Internet Explorer, de-register and remove Trident, and purge various clutter and registry keys, and reinstall the Windows 95 B Shell. (Patched to say Windows 98)
21:59 DaemonFC; Many people wrote me E-Mail to thank them for walking through getting rid of it.
21:59 DaemonFC; But now I find myself discrediting Microsoft's claim that IE 11 is gone. (prior post)
