00:02 DaemonFC; MinceR, I liked the Futureman timeline.

00:02 DaemonFC; He goes back to 1969 and accidentally drops an iphone.

00:04 MinceR; well, it was not a smartphone, just a hypePhone

02:12 DaemonFC; Rich people develop rich habits and middle class develop expensive habits that put them in debt.

02:12 DaemonFC; It's not what they want you to think. They cheat.

02:12 DaemonFC; I've known two millionaires.

02:12 DaemonFC; 1 stole ketchup packets from McDonalds back when they just put them out.

02:12 DaemonFC; 1 was like 90 and had her coat from the 70s cleaned for $10 and complained "Well I didn't want to buy it again."

02:12 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC

02:12 DaemonFC; The millionaire that I knew that complained the Chinese laundry charged her ten dollars to dry clean her coat is a real asshole.

02:12 DaemonFC; She's still around and she just figures everything should cost her what it did 60 years ago while the rest of us suffer and her son is the same way and he's a millionaire landlord who owns half of northern Indiana for rent and uses it to buy half of Florida to live in.

02:12 DaemonFC; They never feel like they should have to lower themselves down to playing by the same rules.

02:13 DaemonFC; Jeff Bezos says don't use a VPN. Get Amazon Prime video and stream Woke Lord of the Rings, right after you work your way through all of those Windows/Intel/TV HDCP errors that mjg59_ enforces.

02:14 DaemonFC; Secure Boot is designed to trap you on an OS that has DRM built right into the core of the system. So mjg59_ says he takes the high road for not working directly on it at Netflix while he helps Microsoft trap you on an OS where you can't win and the noose tightens quickly now (they want to make the Windows Store usable so they can block "sideloaded apps".

03:23 schestowitz[TR]; "the news" barely mentions it anymore

03:23 schestowitz[TR]; a few sites do

03:23 schestowitz[TR]; the Microsoft media partners

03:23 schestowitz[TR]; some even blast it

03:23 DaemonFC; Microsoft had to walk it back after it turned into a disaster.

03:23 schestowitz[TR]; in a knth from now nobody will remember it

03:38 DaemonFC; So unless it was good, it wasn't happening. They thought they'd corrupt, flip, and extend. Then OpenGL would be a Windows API.

03:39 DaemonFC; At the time they did have DirectX but it wasn't really "up there" with the capabilities of OpenGL.

03:39 schestowitz[TR]; wow, this SPAMGPT thing vanished any meaningful news about eedge

03:39 schestowitz[TR]; like the layoffs

03:39 DaemonFC; It was really sort of a transitional thing because PCs weren't really anywhere near powerful enough for real OpenGL yet.

03:39 schestowitz[TR]; it's all HEY HI nonsense

03:39 schestowitz[TR]; googlebombbed

03:40 DaemonFC; It took them until the Windows Me and XP era to get DirectX to parity with OpenGL 1.4 and 2.x.

03:40 DaemonFC; You could eventually backport these versions to Windows 98.

03:41 DaemonFC; Vista's "OpenGL deletion" was their old software GL and the old GL screensavers they had. Not what hardware would really use if a program was GL.

03:41 DaemonFC; Software GL on Windows was basically useless except for something like GL Teapot or those screensavers.

03:42 DaemonFC; So it was really a little bit of junk cleanup by this point, but Vista added so many awful things.

03:42 DaemonFC; It's always like 1 step forward and 20 steps back with a Windows "upgrade.

03:43 DaemonFC; This Windows 11 thing, the new shell is just totally pointless.

03:43 DaemonFC; It still has so much of the old one around and running, it's crazy.

03:43 DaemonFC; You've got the management console and the classic control panel that really haven't changed much (if at all) since Windows 7.

03:43 DaemonFC; I mean, they hide things and then they insert something else.

03:44 DaemonFC; It's like Hoarders: Buried Alive.

03:44 DaemonFC; "Don't throw that out! I may need it!" and they get so touchy about it the cops are out there because someone was trying to toss old newspapers from 2005.

03:44 DaemonFC; Microsoft is like that when it comes to Windows components.

04:07 DaemonFC; I remember when my checking account paid over 4%.

04:07 DaemonFC; But my Savings was like over 7%.

04:07 DaemonFC; It really depends on what the Fed is doing, pretty much.

04:08 DaemonFC; If they can't get a good rate from the Fed, they need to borrow money from you. If they can get it cheaper from you they may offer a good rate.

04:08 DaemonFC; Probably the reason we don't see 5-6% on Savings now is all of these regulations that are designed to stop them from taking fees for other stuff.

04:09 DaemonFC; Those didn't exist in the 90s and so they had other ways to make money off deposit accounts, _and_ Fed rates were a lot higher then.

04:09 DaemonFC; And people were demanding a lot of loans.

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; added

04:10 DaemonFC; The regulations are designed to keep banks from making the money by tricking people and processing transactions out of order to steal money and whatnot.

04:10 DaemonFC; So like, they always take with one hand, give with the other.

04:10 DaemonFC; If they can't steal, they'll lower rates.

04:10 DaemonFC; If they're offering you 4% it means they loan it higher to someone else.

04:11 DaemonFC; Or they need to get their deposits up to meet their requirements.

04:11 DaemonFC; Right now, the interest rate on excess deposits is a lot lower than it is for borrowing money at the overnight rate.

04:11 DaemonFC; So they need deposits a lot more than they did even 10-12 months ago.

08:21 DaemonFC; Hmm, the polling changed.

08:21 DaemonFC; Now Lightfoot is polling behind two other candidates, but still not far above Willie Wilson.

08:22 DaemonFC; It's possible at this point Lightfoot doesn't even make it to the runoff election, which would put her in the awkward spot of being a lame duck a month early.

08:24 geert; preferably don't call ducks lame kk

08:27 DaemonFC; In general, politicians who don't get their agenda passed quickly lose effectiveness the longer they're in office.

08:27 DaemonFC; J.B. Pritzker on the other hand has managed to consolidate power every year and his only significant setback was when he failed to get the public to give the state permission to pass a huge "graduated income tax".

08:49 h4unt3d; or both, the valuta AND a supply/demand disparity

08:49 geert; inflation got more to do with with valuta as trading subject (product/service) than to pay trading with than that it would be directly indexed to supply/demand ratio** <<-- i think its more proper english this way

08:49 h4unt3d; this happens when, more money is circulated, to cope with supply/demand disparities

08:50 geert; h4unt3d; throughout modern very much curated/directed markets, practically all 'shortages' stem from political/economical issues, not actually lacking means to supply demand.

08:50 h4unt3d; such as politicians wish-thinking, more money only could solve any problem, then you got both, devalued money and supply/demand disparities

08:52 h4unt3d; geert: i tend to slightly disagree, on the german housing market for example, it is both currently, insufficient supply of affordable shelter, _and_ devalued money

08:52 geert; in the way of kind of 'created'/'instignated' 'trouble' (artificial 'trouble' created to deliver kind of curated rebuild/spending 'perspective'); yes

08:53 geert; i get you, still practically sure that there is no real insufficient supply, it is more of 'curated trouble' so to speak

08:53 geert; kind of so called 'political push/pull game'

08:56 h4unt3d; in germany, various labor union protests were announced, demanding +15% salary in public institutions... guess where this will show up next? +15% on rents for appartments?

08:57 h4unt3d; this morning in an interview, construction sector too demanded _more_ money, to construct more housing, with an estimate "index rents" might increase +6Euros/sqm; which would be more than double the price i currently pay, for a rotten appartment

08:58 h4unt3d; in two hours, i got an appointment, to discuss job placement btw.; with some more questions to ask, by coincidence in a public institution which demands those +15%

08:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0

08:59 h4unt3d; one such question, where my salary missing on my account was routed to in the last 10 years, which now i shall pay rent with


9 AM, February 20

09:00 h4unt3d; on the "heating" bill of this appartment, they already did cheat +3000% over "EU market price" for LNG (demanding up to 3Euros/kWh instead of 12cents/kWh)

09:01 geert; h4unt3d; so you got to mention partly cause to 'inflation'; if workers get more salary, it stimulate inflation/deflation process to maintain competitive position internationally

09:02 h4unt3d; geert: well, i "decided" to terminate _all_ work, october last year already, and too informed the "financial department" of theirs over this

09:04 h4unt3d; they required 4month to respond, with no conclusive statement yet, because i objected to those 3Euro/kWh (besides a potential increase of the "index rent" here, don't know yet how far this shall escalate, other than me terminating all work)

09:04 geert; h4unt3d in many places throughout the globe, also in .de, people get to endure such a criminal system these days that it starts to appear kind of ridiculous to lock people up over stealing some money from banks/atm suppliers or money laundering etc.

09:05 geert; i think most of what we get to call politics isnt even real politics these days

09:06 geert; whats called meritocracy is basically some fancy appearing term to 'uber/untermensch' """ideology""", basically state of law bending further away from serious justice and common interest to try circumvent addressing very serious and nasty monetary, economical, (geo-)political, legal issues

09:07 geert; h4unt3d they dont 'require' such responding time, they just try to play a game and exploit what they figure 'advantaged position' over the position they figure you got.

09:09 geert; not to act sassy, it seems you already get to understand this as latter bunch statements suggest some more thinking than many others.

09:10 h4unt3d; don't know, i would say, there simply won't be any more "free lunch" to be had for anyone, if they push towards those +15%

09:11 h4unt3d; in fact, with the LNG/energy pricing (with electricity they pushed +100% to 44cents/kWh recently), i'll put an end to this with the LNG bill for "heating", which is down to ZERO here

09:11 geert; disagree, the percentage is just a number in regard to fiat currency spread to 'workers effort'. related to many other factors, it could even result to a ZERO percentage difference if some policy 'catch up' to 'equalize' the situation so to speak

09:12 geert; what you get to refer to in regard to LNG, which also happens to some other substance market than just LNG as well, is what some would call insider trading

09:12 h4unt3d; nope, it's not a zero-sum game, if you mean that, because the missing income for more than a decade of work, this adds up to the leverage on energy, which exploded to +3000% with the last official letter of theirs

09:13 geert; its not per definition a zero sum game, if the situation is not 'equalized' so to speak

09:14 geert; though if some so called 'leaders' expect to give in to the salary increase though meanwhile 'equalize' the situation through other trickery, they could quite easily manage to a near zero sum situation prepared to catch the salary increase before it even happens

09:14 h4unt3d; exactly, i estimate a leverage of 1:10000 _against_ me, with the social/political/financial stunts of theirs, and that's a total write-off

09:15 h4unt3d; the ideology of this, currently is camouflaged with "moral" arguments, however, that's irelevant, because there isn't any "free lunch" to be had for anyone anymore

09:15 h4unt3d; in the end, someone has to pay, and i can't

09:15 geert; thats what i would expect too, a so called 'salary increase' leading to actual 'loss of individual spending power per capita'

09:15 geert; as this is what mostly happens these days in quite some so called 'western countries' with 'salary increases'

09:17 geert; some so called 'elites' consider the masses 'dumb', 'replacable', 'unnecessary' and 'too stupid' for more of expensive 'democratic state of law' so to speak

09:22 DaemonFC; Whatever they're paying, Microsoft is probably getting ready to increase that.

09:22 geert; maybe i should take a more thorough look in that duckduckgo.com and several others once, try get some more serious see into REAL developments 'behind the curtains'..

09:23 DaemonFC; We're talking about a 4-5x cost increase.

09:23 DaemonFC; they might be trying to kill off DDG.

09:23 h4unt3d; "the percentage is just a number in regard to fiat currency spread to 'workers effort'" it is not just some arbitrary balance sheet entry

09:24 h4unt3d; on mine it's a total write-off, ireversible damage

09:25 h4unt3d; i think it's another mis-conception, _everyone_ was affected eqally, by any such crisis, when instead it was/is some minorities

09:26 h4unt3d; i'll too ask with the job-placement appointment, what they may think was the cause Telekom/Railway/Airport critical infrastructure reported three total outages in the last 12 month

09:26 h4unt3d; by coincidence, i too had applied at those government positions, railway and telekom, and another was environmental protection agency

09:29 h4unt3d; typically, they twist argument i had to explain this, yet all i could say is my salary was absent for more than 10 years and my job placements remained unprocessed too

09:53 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I was thinking.

09:54 DaemonFC; Maybe Microsoft plans to run DDG and Yahoo under by making it impossible to pay for Bing searches.

09:54 DaemonFC; it would cost so much it would run at a loss and then Microsoft gains direct users?

09:55 DaemonFC; I can see why they might want to lay waste to Yahoo, but not DDG.

09:55 DaemonFC; DDG gives them revenue and from users who would never use Bing directly.

10:04 DaemonFC; The change impacts all developers and organizations who query Microsoft Bing Search APIs in their products and do not have custom agreements with the company. It remains to be seen how these will react to the pricing changes.

10:04 DaemonFC; Since the change is significant, some may not be able to support the change. Having to pay three, four or even five times for API calls in May 2023 may certainly be a dealbreaker for many. One option that these companies and developers have is to switch to another search API. It is far from ideal, considering that search results may change when a different search API is used."

10:06 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> schestowitz[TR], So Microsoft has lost their minds and has blown up Bing.

10:06 schestowitz[TR]; yeah

10:06 schestowitz[TR]; see the following:

10:06 schestowitz[TR]; (thought about it on way to pet store)

10:07 TR News; If Google YouTube was to follow the latest trends in Twitter and Facebook, maybe the new chief would insist that to watch YouTube 'unlimited' you must pay $19.99 per month no matter where in the world you are. Then VPNs flourish.

10:09 TR News; Social control media does not have a business model except: 1) advertising (but people only buy necessities right now; hard to sell them crap). 2) pleasing govs with surveillance, censorship, and suspensions. In exchange for some state-level favours.

10:09 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: stickk a fork in "bing"

10:09 schestowitz[TR]; it's just msn rebranded

10:09 schestowitz[TR]; and they don't even know what "bing" is anymore

10:09 schestowitz[TR]; it loses market share

10:09 schestowitz[TR]; so they triued fake privacy

10:09 schestowitz[TR]; sank money and resources into DDG

10:09 schestowitz[TR]; now they insist that HEY HI will replace search

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; like Facebook pretended and paid the media to lie about "metaverse"

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; whatever that f*ing meme is

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; and then it went nowhere

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; just losing money

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; I won't use a chatbot

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; if I want an answer I search for authoritative pages

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; I won't ask questions about fish treatment... I will seek actual pages

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; or:

10:10 schestowitz[TR]; as I just did, ask the people at the store

10:11 schestowitz[TR]; after paying them for treatment products

10:11 schestowitz[TR]; they feel compelled to give advice like squa-vets

10:11 schestowitz[TR]; bing will kill your pets

10:11 schestowitz[TR]; or might worsen things

10:11 schestowitz[TR]; AdmFubar: turns out I'm not supposed to clean the filter in the tapo

10:11 schestowitz[TR]; *tap

10:12 schestowitz[TR]; but water changes are still considered acceptable

10:12 schestowitz[TR]; if you don't have bottom feeders

23:10 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], So back to gasoline engines.

23:10 DaemonFC; The EPA set a minimum detergent standard for gasoline in 1996.

23:11 DaemonFC; Before 1996, it was just whatever the gas companies wanted to do.

23:11 DaemonFC; Many used more detergent than the EPA ended up mandating later.

23:12 DaemonFC; When the EPA mandated a minimum level, it took into account pollution and how engines were designed in 1996. The standard hasn't been revisited since then.

23:12 DaemonFC; It hasn't considered engine longevity, emissions over time as the car ages, and modern advancements in engine design.

23:13 DaemonFC; So, the minimum level will probably keep a port injected overhead valve engine with a low compression ratio "clean enough".

23:13 DaemonFC; But it's nothing spectacular. And again, you could end up with injector fouling and the EPA doesn't care because your check engine light will come on and you'll need to have a mechanic clean or replace the injector.

23:14 DaemonFC; Which could end up costing $500-600 per injector, and there's one for each cylinder in the engine.

23:15 DaemonFC; So in the US there's "voluntary standards" like the Top Tier Gasoline program. Stations can pay a license fee and if they meet the automaker's group standards they can advertise Top Tier gasoline, and the manuals usually say use Top Tier gasoline if you want to avoid problems with your car, but nobody reads those.

23:16 DaemonFC; When you pull over at an off brand station that's not a Top Tier member, like Speedway, Kroger, Murphy, Thornton's, Arco, and others, you don't know what you're putting in except that it probably meets the 1996 EPA standard so they don't get a fine.

23:17 DaemonFC; GM has a part called "AC Delco Fuel System Treatment Plus". One for gas, one for diesel.

23:19 DaemonFC; If you or the last owner of your car fouled it up with bargain basement gasoline, or you're not running Top Tier and want to keep it clean, you can use these as sort of a catch up. You dump a bottle of it in the tank and fill up and run the tank nearly to E and then fill up again. It hits the fuel system with a massive catch up dose of Polyether Amine (PEA) and it cleans most of the gunk and carbon out of the parts that it's prone to mess up.

23:19 DaemonFC; Sometimes if the car is old and the problem is serious, you might have to do this for two or three tanks of gas in a row.

23:19 DaemonFC; So once you have the problem sorted out, it's always better to use Top Tier gas going forward.

23:20 DaemonFC; Polyether Amine is what Top Tier gasoline usually uses, but not in the amounts of these "fuel detergent" concentrates.

23:20 DaemonFC; They're designed to keep a clean engine clean. They will begin to slowly reverse carbon problems on intake valves, fuel rails, and injectors, but it takes thousands of miles to reverse that at these levels and you probably want your car to stop stalling out and idling rough soon.

23:26 DaemonFC; PEA as an additive just avoids a lot of those problems from the residue that burning gasoline tends to leave behind.

23:30 DaemonFC; I look at the MSDS to see what I'm actually putting in my car.

23:30 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], It turns out that the fuel additives GM was telling you to avoid are in GM's fuel additive.

23:30 DaemonFC; It's just a big dose of PEA and Naptha.
