00:00 MinceR; i thought Linus Illiteracy Tips has already fallen
00:00 MinceR; or was it Linus Hypocrisy Tips?
00:03 schestowitz; <techrights-news> Watch the shirt he wears: freedo of gnu linux-libre https://odysee.com/@AlphaNerd:8/the-fall-of-linus-tech-tips:1
00:03 schestowitz; i have just tipped alex oliva about it
00:03 schestowitz; MinceR: the fall seems more "official" now
00:04 schestowitz; remember the time he "reviewed" linux
00:04 schestowitz; he intentionally broke it
00:04 schestowitz; then said it was broken
00:05 schestowitz; many did rebuttals to that
00:05 schestowitz; anyway, he has gone too far
00:05 schestowitz; and the lies catch up
00:06 schestowitz; gonna do many articles/videos overnight after Daily Links
00:07 schestowitz; spent 2 hours yesterday looking for a microphone (also buying 4 new fish)
00:07 schestowitz; the microphone market is apalling
00:07 schestowitz; *appalling
00:07 *GNUmoon2 has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
00:08 schestowitz; the DSP cartel
00:08 schestowitz; for a very very slight increase in quality they charge a fortune
00:08 *GNUmoon2 (~GNUmoon@r9irv7kyrpv3c.irc) has joined #techrights
00:08 schestowitz; and the software DSPs are about as good as t he circuitry now
00:09 *MinceR gives voice to GNUmoon2
00:09 schestowitz; one store sold branded preowned mics
00:09 schestowitz; i spent an hour there alone
00:09 schestowitz; but they sold these for the price of almost new
00:09 schestowitz; though it had clearly been used before
00:09 schestowitz; they relied on people not checking
00:10 schestowitz; i think they changes management there
00:10 schestowitz; *changed
00:10 schestowitz; a music specialist store was not stocking any hardcore mics
00:10 schestowitz; but some karaoke-style stuff
00:10 schestowitz; and "DJ" things
00:12 schestowitz; patents are not the issue
00:12 schestowitz; and software solutions cannot emulate hardware fully
00:12 schestowitz; so making a decent mic should not cost much
00:12 schestowitz; argos sells one, "Trust", for 25 pounds
00:13 schestowitz; lots of youtube channels like LTT shill crap
00:13 schestowitz; brands
00:13 schestowitz; in sponsoired fake reviews
00:14 schestowitz; then some "influencer" wannabe spend a fortune
00:14 schestowitz; mic, camera., lights etc. for _thousands_ of dollars
00:14 schestowitz; their channels go nowhere or youtube "hides" them later on
00:14 schestowitz; so it's money down the drain
00:14 schestowitz; some buy $10k+ video processing machines
00:14 schestowitz; that end up unused
00:18 schestowitz; another topic:
00:18 schestowitz; poor gulagboy
00:18 schestowitz; literally poor
00:18 schestowitz; tried speaking of violence to intimidate us
00:18 schestowitz; did not work
00:19 schestowitz; now tried to rile up wwith totally fabricated stories
00:19 schestowitz; nobody reads these
00:19 schestowitz; so he started irc defamation campaign
00:19 schestowitz; mass messaging people with fiction and slander
00:19 schestowitz; GOOGLE AND RED HAT HIRED THIS MAN!!! Nice move!

00:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz MinceR finally shut Matt GULAG up.
00:29 schestowitz; he does great work
00:29 DaemonFC; Apparently he can't DM anyone about your dumpster lobster anymore.
00:29 schestowitz; lol
00:29 schestowitz; "dumpster lobste"
00:29 DaemonFC; Da lobsta in da dumpstaaaaaaa!
00:29 schestowitz; we dont' even eat seafoods
00:30 schestowitz; we do, however, have over 50KG of various protein shakes
00:30 *darwin (~darwin@7d3n498busjrn.irc) has joined #techrights
00:30 schestowitz; good till 2025
00:31 schestowitz; gulagboy is just jealous
00:31 DaemonFC; I don't have my op hat anymore :/
00:31 schestowitz; running out of money and maybe eating from trash can
00:31 DaemonFC; I suppose I must have been disconnected.
00:31 schestowitz; so he is projecting
00:31 *schestowitz gives channel operator status to DaemonFC
00:31 DaemonFC; Thank you.
00:31 schestowitz; i will be up all night anyway
00:31 DaemonFC; Yes, Matt is clearly not employed or he wouldn't even have time for this.
00:31 schestowitz; slept 6-9
00:32 schestowitz; never announcing when i sleep as it's bad "secop" (sic.)
00:32 *DaemonFC gives voice to darwin
00:32 schestowitz; there is this lingeting rumour about red hat
00:32 schestowitz; the bit boss (IBM) is now happy
00:32 DaemonFC; I miss my desktop with the second monitor.
00:33 schestowitz; and it makes one bad decision after another
00:33 schestowitz; it only worsens things
00:33 DaemonFC; It let me have web browser or IRC on one screen and video on the other.
00:33 schestowitz; the C suite at ibm does not use linux
00:33 schestowitz; and does not understand gpl
00:33 DaemonFC; The C-Suite at IBM is led by some guy like my landlord.
00:33 schestowitz; they impose slack on all the stuaff
00:33 DaemonFC; He went to "business school".
00:33 schestowitz; this horrible thing in your browser
00:33 DaemonFC; Pays too much for things.
00:33 schestowitz; that pretends to be jabber or irc
00:34 DaemonFC; Loses a hell of a lot of money.
00:34 schestowitz; but is controlled by another company, salesforce
00:34 schestowitz; and has many downtimes
00:34 DaemonFC; They got the golden ticket with Red Hat even for what they paid.
00:34 DaemonFC; They should have made more money than they are, or will, out of it.
00:34 schestowitz; <DaemonFC> The C-Suite at IBM is led by some guy like my landlord.
00:34 DaemonFC; It should have been their star product.
00:34 schestowitz; jam allowhurst
00:34 schestowitz; just had to pretend to have messed about with fedora
00:34 schestowitz; but he uses apple mac
00:34 schestowitz; and got some mba in the south, iirc
00:35 schestowitz; not much computer knowledge
00:35 DaemonFC; He should have been using RHEL as his desktop.
00:35 DaemonFC; When you're the CEO of the company, you evangelize the product.
00:35 schestowitz; mostly name-dropping buzzwords like clown and brands like "openshit" [sic]
00:35 DaemonFC; You become deeply familiar with it.
00:35 DaemonFC; Instead you get some asshole who doesn't even know what it is.
00:35 schestowitz; allowhurst was in georrgia or texas for edu
00:35 DaemonFC; Because he uses Macs.
00:35 schestowitz; iirc, he's from georgia area originally/... like cantrell
00:36 DaemonFC; When you don't know what the product can do you're going to have a hell of a time running the company.
00:36 schestowitz; yeah
00:36 DaemonFC; Finding the right audience for a customer base. Finding the right people to develop the product.
00:36 schestowitz; current red hat ceo is technical
00:36 schestowitz; it's mr. openshit [sic]
00:36 schestowitz; but...
00:36 schestowitz; the decisions come from their (lierally) indian ceo
00:36 schestowitz; watch him on video
00:36 DaemonFC; They got an airline CEO. Airlines are not software companies.
00:36 schestowitz; he still cannot get his english right
00:36 DaemonFC; Airlines hardly compete with each other.
00:36 schestowitz; after so many years in usa
00:37 DaemonFC; They get friendly captured regulators.
00:37 DaemonFC; They don't piss in each other's pools.
00:37 DaemonFC; You want to go to a certain place, they agree how much it will be and who flies there and when.
00:37 schestowitz; yes, delta
00:37 DaemonFC; That's not how software works.
00:37 schestowitz; not any airline
00:37 schestowitz; but epically failed one
00:37 schestowitz; that was failing WHILE HE WAS IN CHARGE
00:37 MinceR; jimmy allowhurst could probably run rHELL on that mac if he cared
00:38 schestowitz; then did some "consulting"
00:38 DaemonFC; The airline industry is famous for opaque pricing practices.
00:38 DaemonFC; Much like hotels.
00:38 schestowitz; where the consultancy is notoriosu for many reasons
00:38 schestowitz; mckinsley
00:38 DaemonFC; There were people staying at the hotel Mandy and I went to that paid as much per night as we did for three nights.
00:38 schestowitz; yes
00:38 schestowitz; they have a term for that
00:38 DaemonFC; The hotels slip wholesale rooms to agencies and it's up to them to decide how much they want for a margin.
00:38 schestowitz; upselling
00:38 schestowitz; spy and profile people
00:38 DaemonFC; It's the same exact rooms.
00:38 schestowitz; figure out how high a price they would settle for
00:39 DaemonFC; Same layout, same bed, same everything.
00:39 schestowitz; then offer that ptice, say it is "discount"
00:39 schestowitz; when booking you could use a "fresh" PC
00:39 schestowitz; no cookies, another ip
00:39 schestowitz; i figured that out 20+ years ago
00:40 schestowitz; different machines, different ptrices
00:40 schestowitz; so you shop around machines
00:40 schestowitz; and choose one that's not pricing it up
00:40 schestowitz; the more tracking they do of you, the worse off you are
00:40 schestowitz; same as insurance companies

00:41 schestowitz; all those "apps" witn vouchers... they can harm you in ways you cannot comprehend because it's invisible
00:41 schestowitz; like landlord assessing who you are
00:41 schestowitz; based on "big data"
00:42 schestowitz; running checks on "files" and "databases"
00:42 schestowitz; banks do the same btw

00:47 DaemonFC; That was my fault. With as shit as Comcast is I tripped over the vacuum and unplugged the modem.
00:47 schestowitz; argh..., the gemini monitoring was down for 6 hours
00:47 schestowitz; i did not even noticce
00:47 DaemonFC; But at least it knocked Mandy off Twatter for a few moments.
00:48 DaemonFC; Now it's quiet in here.
00:48 schestowitz; was running in tmux, sometime stopped it, i think
00:48 schestowitz; maybe me
00:48 schestowitz; so gemini scrollback for irc was not updating
00:48 schestowitz; Twatter X?
00:48 DaemonFC; Yeah.
00:48 schestowitz; itt's irrelevant
00:48 DaemonFC; A bunch of cunts hang out there.
00:48 schestowitz; it's barely mentioned by the media anymore
00:49 DaemonFC; Twatter.
00:49 schestowitz; they just assume it'll languish away
00:49 schestowitz; no epitaph
00:49 DaemonFC; That stupid X rebranding alone was ridiculous.
00:49 schestowitz; twat or cunt means the same here
00:49 schestowitz; it's something that drives gulagboy up the wall
00:49 DaemonFC; Because he wants one and can't have one.
00:50 schestowitz; X was a distraction
00:50 schestowitz; that distorts history
00:50 schestowitz; X as his online venture decades back
00:50 schestowitz; it did not really succeed
00:50 schestowitz; many wrongly believe he started paypal
00:50 schestowitz; or "paypal something"
00:50 schestowitz; or tesla
00:50 DaemonFC; He bought the right to use "Founder" of Tesla.
00:50 schestowitz; X is just nostalgia to him
00:51 DaemonFC; The real ones can't say they started the company.
00:51 DaemonFC; He can sue them if they do.
00:51 DaemonFC; That's how Elon "Founded" Tesla.
00:51 schestowitz; as twitter is unalvageable at this point
00:51 schestowitz; sadly, the world is run by people like these
00:52 schestowitz; not all, but many
00:52 schestowitz; examples include "bill says" didn't finish college, but mama got me icbm contract
00:52 schestowitz; lars armstrong
00:52 schestowitz; and donald trump
00:52 schestowitz; gulagboy is another league
00:52 schestowitz; he didn't lose his mind
00:52 schestowitz; he was always insane
00:53 DaemonFC; DOS is really all the OS that most people would ever need. It was so stupid you could extend it however you wanted to, even with X11.
00:53 schestowitz; even 20+ years ago
00:53 DaemonFC; But even that wasn't Microsoft's.
00:53 DaemonFC; It was a product that Gates tricked Tim Paterson into selling way too cheaply.
00:53 DaemonFC; Then licensed to IBM.
00:53 schestowitz; with his screws all loose, and without a source of income (or even running water), he lost his marbles entirely
00:53 DaemonFC; IBM and Microsoft go way back.
00:53 DaemonFC; Even though Microsoft fucked them bad on OS/2
00:53 DaemonFC; You'd think that would be the end of that.
00:54 DaemonFC; But new leadership comes in and goes right back in the water.
00:54 schestowitz; thingss changggge
00:54 schestowitz; i talked to dad on mumble today for a long time
00:54 schestowitz; and he said ibm is irrelavant
00:54 schestowitz; but i said they still have gov contracts
00:54 DaemonFC; OS/2 should have been the 90s OS for modern computing.
00:54 schestowitz; and support many systems, even cobol and lisp stuff
00:54 schestowitz; now icbm and microsoft share a pain
00:55 DaemonFC; If they'd gone with it, it's possible that they wouldn't have a lulzy Windows 11-like thing that's killing them and unsupportable.
00:55 schestowitz; and they try to find a common solution

00:55 schestowitz; DaemonFC: instead we got android
00:55 schestowitz; for the 2010s
00:55 schestowitz; it's a huge regressioon
00:55 schestowitz; nokia had made better phones
00:55 schestowitz; based on debian
00:56 schestowitz; they had virtual desktops and keyboards
00:56 MinceR; 20 015438 <@DaemonFC> OS/2 should have been the 90s OS for modern computing.
00:56 MinceR; sadly, it was little better than NT
00:56 schestowitz; not "slide to unlock" and back button
00:56 schestowitz; to some of us, this trend is beneficial
00:56 schestowitz; as many people I'm good friends with waste their like on tiny elescreens
00:57 schestowitz; typing emails at 30 words/min at most
00:57 schestowitz; because their fingers are like 20% the size of the computer
00:57 psydruid; I wonder what drugs these people who say OS/2 was/is so amazing are on
00:57 psydruid; compared with workstations that ran UNIX or GNU/Linux
00:57 schestowitz; the OS is not as important as
00:58 schestowitz; 1) hardware
00:58 schestowitz; 2) software
00:58 schestowitz; if it stays out of the way, you might still get "apps" with one button
00:58 psydruid; there are still people who say Windows Phone was so great that Android and iOS still can't come close
00:58 schestowitz; and files being stores on someone else's machine
00:58 psydruid; and on PCs Windows is pure crap
00:58 schestowitz; *stored
00:58 psydruid; so do they live in another reality or what?
00:58 schestowitz; i saw many windows PCs at the store yesterday
00:58 psydruid; it almost looks like necrophilia
00:58 schestowitz; many were also chromebooks

01:01 schestowitz; "too compliicated"
01:01 psydruid; the first time I had a PC with Windows 95 OSR2 it died on me within 3 hours of me unpacking the box and connecting everything
01:01 MinceR; monkey boy thought just copying hypeOS would be sufficient to beat either hypeOS or Android
01:01 schestowitz; "let's shave off 90% of the button"
01:01 MinceR; it wasn't.
01:01 psydruid; I wish someone had told me about GNU/Linux so I would never have wasted time on that abysmal software
01:01 schestowitz; so people cannot do what they used to or need to click 4 things to get the same done as was possible before with one botton
01:01 MinceR; same
01:03 psydruid; my uncle was in IT back then and still is, but he was too much of a Microsoft fanboy to tell me about alternatives
01:03 DaemonFC; Well this is fun.
01:03 psydruid; even though he worked with VAX/VMS at work too, but mostly from a Windows desktop
01:04 psydruid; I guess by that time they had Alphas too
01:04 MinceR; vms isn't much of an improvement on Backdoors either
01:05 psydruid; I think he had access to Tandem systems as well
01:05 psydruid; but I soon knew GNU/Linux and UNIX better than he did, so he would ask me for help
01:08 schestowitz; gnu/linux was different in the 90s, psydruid
01:08 schestowitz; for one thing, solatis/unix was a server thing
01:08 schestowitz; for server staff
01:08 schestowitz; email servers etc.
01:09 schestowitz; *staff and server farms staff
01:09 schestowitz; and stuff
01:09 schestowitz; on the desktop, gnu/linux lacked many things
01:09 schestowitz; inc. a browser that would work reliably
01:10 schestowitz; kde and gnome came in mid or late 90s
01:10 schestowitz; so you ended up with very basic desktop and xeyes or...

01:29 psydruid; it was late 2002 when I put together systems for our family and put windows xp and gnu/linux on them
01:29 psydruid; but windows xp kept dying, so at some point I just got rid of it
01:30 psydruid; it was mostly for playing games, but it wasn't even good at doing that
01:30 DaemonFC; XP kept getting "application compatibility updates".
01:31 DaemonFC; There was a team at Microsoft that sat down and got hundreds of old programs running with these.
01:31 psydruid; later on I installed in it VMs, so it would be more manageable
01:31 DaemonFC; People who remember XP fondly don't remember the version that shipped.
01:31 psydruid; that's how I played Starcraft
01:32 psydruid; XP only became somewhat usable with SP2
01:32 psydruid; same with W10
01:32 psydruid; or every version of Windows
01:33 DaemonFC; The guy at Walmart at the time XP was new said he knew a lot of customers were trying to bring back the systems with Windows 98 on them.
01:33 psydruid; it's just that now they can't even get it right after a number of years
01:33 psydruid; and with the new version they don't get it right either
01:33 DaemonFC; They tried to revert back and couldn't figure out how to get it running.
01:34 DaemonFC; Intel blocked the chipset driver setup, but I bypassed it and got the drivers installed.
01:34 DaemonFC; The WDM drivers worked.
01:34 DaemonFC; Most Windows 98 crashes were because of the prevailing vxd drivers and the Internet Explorer shell integration.
01:35 DaemonFC; Once you ripped IE and crap out and used WDM drivers for everything, it was about as stable as NT.
01:35 DaemonFC; Microsoft implemented WDM in Windows 98 but didn't force hardware vendors to use it for new stuff.
01:35 DaemonFC; So they didn't.
01:36 DaemonFC; XP never supported anything else, so there's quite a few systems where you can jam in WDM drivers for "XP" into 98.
01:37 DaemonFC; I posted on my web site that if you hated the Windows XP computer you bought at Walmart and couldn't figure out how to make Windows 98 to work on it, run the XP recovery disc on it before you took it back.
01:37 DaemonFC; Because they'd plug it in and see if XP came up.
01:38 DaemonFC; The stories about the i-opener "internet device" were funny though.
01:38 DaemonFC; A $99 x86 PC that was supposed to run some gimpy "online service". Cost the company $500 to make.
01:38 DaemonFC; People were totally ignoring the online service, tearing them apart, and hacking them to run Linux.
01:40 DaemonFC; Before the company went out of business, they were fined by the FTC for forcing customers to agree to a $499 early termination fee at the point of sale once they realized that half of the things they sold never actually got "activated".
01:40 DaemonFC; The FTC told them if they sold the thing for $99, they could try to software lock it, but they couldn't charge you $500 for not signing it up when you got it home.
01:41 DaemonFC; So they did software locks and then people hacked around that and installed Linux and the company collapsed because people were using them for simple Linux devices and thin clients.
01:41 DaemonFC; Something similar happened. People buying PS3s and only using them for Linux and Blu Ray discs.
01:41 DaemonFC; And copying Blu Ray discs. :)
01:41 DaemonFC; They found out how to use the built-in drive to dump the discs.
01:42 DaemonFC; Most hardware sold to consumers doesn't want the consumer doing anything that goes "off the rails" because Linux runs forever and they'll never sell you anything for it.
01:44 psydruid; I wonder if that's what we're seeing play out in the OEM hardware world even today with OEMs crippling hardware and software to suit their outdated business models
01:44 DaemonFC; schestowitz I told the teenager at Wendy's that since he had to use a thumbprint scanner at work, he might be eligible for BIPA claims that would get him money from Wendy's and the time clock company.
01:44 DaemonFC; I don't think he really understood what I was saying.
01:44 DaemonFC; They'd have to pay him at least $5,000 if he didn't give them written authorization to store his fingerprint.
01:46 schestowitz; DaemonFC: did you see my correction to your post?
01:46 DaemonFC; I made the "used" one.

02:03 DaemonFC; By the time it got out of Montana, it was basically too late to shoot down safely, and that was the point.

06:04 DaemonFC; schestowitz: I don't believe for one minute that Matt GULAG is actually anti-copyright.
06:05 DaemonFC; I'm probably the most virulent anti-copyright person I know.
06:05 DaemonFC; But what Microsoft and others want is a system where Free Software goes through a disarmament and they still have copyright law protecting proprietary software.
06:05 DaemonFC; And that's what can't be allowed to happen.
06:06 DaemonFC; GPL (and other copyleft) license enforcement is necessary to prevent proprietary software companies from having an even more enormous advantage than they already do.
06:06 DaemonFC; Until such time as the whole thing is repealed (which it won't be), it should apply across-the-board.
06:07 DaemonFC; So that's where this GitHub CoPilot lawsuit against Microsoft is. Microsoft is encouraging copyright infringement and assisting it, and it needs to pay a huge penalty and be ordered to stop doing it.
06:08 DaemonFC; In a system without copyright, the Wine people could just openly reverse engineer Windows however they wanted to do it and admit it and nothing could be done.
06:08 DaemonFC; It wouldn't be the sort of buggy libraries you have now where they take great pain to not run afoul of copyright law.
06:08 DaemonFC; But it doesn't work quite right, you know.
06:08 DaemonFC; Wine usually works....amazing well considering what it is. You have to temper your expectations.
06:09 DaemonFC; If the program works fine, you got lucky. Take the win and go on about your business. Eventually something won't work well, or at all. So it's very uneven in its compatibility with Windows.

21:32 DaemonFC; schestowitz A preview.
21:32 DaemonFC; "If Wayland still isn't working right after 15 years, if it still behaves like some bugged, crummy, perpetual beta software, when will it work right?
21:32 DaemonFC; I'm actually amused that IBM Red Hat considers it so production ready that it's been in "Enterprise Linux" for a while.
21:32 DaemonFC; Sure, as a user of an Enterprise Linux clone (or RHEL), you could fight your way like a salmon swimming upstream, using the last of its energy and time on Earth to lay eggs and die, fixing all of the really terrible engineering decisions IBM has made for you.
21:32 DaemonFC; Some of the clones support BtrFS and DTrace (Oracle), and I think KDE is available as unofficial packages, but I think the Enterprise Desktop really deserves better software, and the developers of SUSE realize that moving crackpot shit like Wayland over to "Enterprise" Linux just turns it into "Fedora with older packages".
21:32 DaemonFC; Some distributions, especially Red Hat, have this odd sort of definition of stability.
21:32 DaemonFC; This definition means the software might be full of bugs, it might glitch, but at least it doesn't change much. To those ends, IBM even ignores security patches."
21:32 schestowitz; checking
21:32 DaemonFC; I'm still going.
21:32 schestowitz; <DaemonFC> I'm actually amused that IBM Red Hat considers it so production ready that it's been in "Enterprise Linux" for a while.
21:32 schestowitz; RHEL is server
21:32 schestowitz; some people use it for editing
21:33 schestowitz; in studios
21:33 DaemonFC; The desktop version uses GNOME on Wayland.
21:33 schestowitz; but they mostyly use one program, e.g. maya 3d
21:33 schestowitz; and if maya supports wayland, maybe blender also, then fine
21:33 DaemonFC; Back when Red Hat made some sense, I used Scientific Linux. It was great!
21:33 DaemonFC; It had Upstart and it had X11.
21:33 schestowitz; OBS only recently dabbled in wayland
21:34 schestowitz; so if you want streaming and stuff, stay away from wayland distros
21:34 DaemonFC; I made a desktop system out of it and I rarely had to step in and figure out "What in the Hell is going on with this thing?"
21:34 schestowitz; it might go boom i the middle of a recording session, live
21:34 DaemonFC; I don't actually use it that way so I don't know what streaming is like.
21:35 schestowitz; i can give you a useful ref:
21:35 schestowitz; [hand on]

21:35 schestowitz; very good article
21:35 schestowitz; as a kde/plasma user (not only), i always remember this one
21:35 schestowitz; so this is what it means to adopt wayland in 2024
21:36 schestowitz; *2023
21:36 schestowitz; as kde person
21:36 DaemonFC; "Is X11 old? Sure. Does it matter much? Not if you ask me, as a user.
21:36 DaemonFC; I would much rather have SeaMonkey and other X11 applications show up clean, crisp, clear, and scaled right, than smudgy and vaguely reminiscent of "Microsoft Glaucoma-vision", which is what I refer to as the way Windows 10 and 11 scale things incorrectly and then put "Vaseline on the fonts". This is just shoddy craftsmanship.
21:36 schestowitz; catastrophe
21:36 DaemonFC; Wine, which is a very important program to me, runs Windows programs. It uses X11.
21:36 DaemonFC; When it runs on XWayland it picks up lag and stability problems and passes them along to the Windows programs and games I want to run.
21:36 DaemonFC; When I double-click on Fallout or something, I want my game to run. Not skip frames and then jitter and die because XWayland doesn't work properly, STILL.
21:36 DaemonFC; One of the reasons I give to Windows users for why they should switch to Linux is that I've had really good luck with Wine. Wine is still not ported over to use Wayland and it's not clear when or if it will ever be.
21:36 schestowitz; welcome back, 2003
21:36 DaemonFC; The SUSE engineers avoided so much drama, so many difficult people, and so much political nonsense and technical problems by remaining with KDE.
21:36 DaemonFC; One of the reasons IBM Red Hat dropped KDE entirely is that they were hoping to inflict a mortal wound, the same reason they supported defamation of an elderly man (Richard Stallman, who is 70.) and then stopped paying for GNU software development, but they still "freeload" off it."

21:45 DaemonFC; This is an affront to masculinity (which nobody has ever cared about) and to femininity (which nobody cares about, starting several years ago). The people in the "transgender industry" are a bunch of crooked psychiatrists and surgical centers, and doctors, who should be in some area of medicine that fixes diseases, using these poor people as profit centers.

21:47 DaemonFC; They don't want to hear about your lost job, they don't want to hear about your hunger, your housing needs, or your children.
21:47 DaemonFC; But you will pay taxes and healthcare premiums to "help people transition" to a "different gender", not necessarily even out of the two.
21:48 DaemonFC; And those taxes and premiums only go in one direction, up up and away.
21:48 DaemonFC; You have 0.1% of the population managing to increase healthcare costs with this mandated gender bullshit by probably at least 4-5% like we needed any help rowing in the wrong direction on healthcare costs in this country.
21:49 DaemonFC; They punch above their weight to latch onto sick people who actually need medical care that is being rejected by the insurance company.
21:49 DaemonFC; I don't think "gender transition" should be banned. I just think it's like, not medical care. Pay for it yourself.
21:50 DaemonFC; They're using bandits from the tax dept to rob me to pay for plastic surgery.
21:50 DaemonFC; It's like vain women getting boob jobs.
21:50 DaemonFC; When do we pay for that too in "healthcare insurance"?
21:50 DaemonFC; I actually do support all forms of birth control being in insurance though.
21:51 DaemonFC; That's a healthcare thing. Having too many kids running around being poor and disadvantaged and picking up guns is a public health crisis.
21:52 DaemonFC; For so many reasons. I mean, the system here is designed so that ....more people have an unacceptable standard of life, however....
21:52 DaemonFC; They will pollute a lot and throw trash everywhere, even though they're miserable from beginning to end.
21:52 DaemonFC; And a lot of them won't live long anyway, because the system is totally unconcerned about their basic survival needs, and eventually what do you do?
21:52 DaemonFC; You sell drugs, you steal cars. You point guns.
21:53 DaemonFC; Because that way you can eat. It's a public health crisis.
21:54 DaemonFC; schestowitz I pointed out how there is unemployment and disability, but they fight you for every centimeter so you'll die or go away.

21:56 DaemonFC; So like, getting a state ID used to be easy. Now you have to fight everyone just to get that, and you need it for everything else.
21:56 DaemonFC; schestowitz One of them told me to go home and get different documents. I said "This is a draft card from Selective Service."
21:56 DaemonFC; They go "Aren't you a little old to have one of those?"
21:57 DaemonFC; I said, "You aren't required to give them your current address after you're 27, but they will still accept updates and send a card."
21:57 DaemonFC; "Are you discriminating against me due to my age? It sounds an awful lot like there's some age discrimination going on in here."
21:58 DaemonFC; "As a member of the public, at a government agency, I would like you to apply the law here like it's written."
21:58 DaemonFC; Then they went and got a supervisor and I got my updated license.

22:09 DaemonFC; My car is about as old as Wayland. It's been around for a long time.
22:09 XRevan86; DaemonFC: It's upstream for the core but openSUSE and SUSE are managed by different but cooperating teams.
22:09 DaemonFC; Wayland is so old that cars built that year are rusting and hard to keep going.

23:29 DaemonFC; I suppose that the coke fly probably won't bother once it hasn't worked for him for a month or two.
23:29 DaemonFC; By then he may have a lot more problems.
23:31 DaemonFC; This won't stop him because there's like hundreds of exit nodes.
23:31 DaemonFC; So it just degrades his attempts.
23:31 DaemonFC; More than banning nicks he won't use again.
23:31 DaemonFC; It's like Clinton saying in the 90s that lobbing cruise missiles at Iraq "degraded" their military capabilities.
