06:21 DaemonFC; <schestowitz> in the US it's off the charts
06:21 DaemonFC; Democrat cities.
06:22 DaemonFC; That's what you get when you let them fester, unemployed, in a section 8 welfare hive.
06:22 DaemonFC; My mother doesn't get it. Totally doesn't get it.
06:23 DaemonFC; She says "It's not the government's job to provide jobs. It's not the government's job to provide food, healthcare, a place to live, or anything else."
06:23 DaemonFC; I said, "Well, then get used to things being this way."
06:23 DaemonFC; What the failed politicians don't get, don't want....
06:24 DaemonFC; Is a society of people who are employed, dignified, and not dependent on another handout.
06:24 DaemonFC; Well educated people who are put to some use are not easy to control.
06:24 DaemonFC; The government made a choice. It chose this.
06:24 schestowitz; i see
06:24 schestowitz; btw, we're leaving shortly
06:25 DaemonFC; For where?
06:26 DaemonFC; schestowitz, The way I see it is the government wants dumb people floating around, suffering, depending on it just to eek by.
06:26 DaemonFC; And it will sacrifice the status of "superpower" and "first world country" get maintain control domestically.
06:26 DaemonFC; Because that is where it has gotten.
06:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz, The government doesn't even care if there are riots, or if there is looting.
06:29 DaemonFC; The monster that corporate America has created is now devouring it.
06:30 DaemonFC; Walmart is in retreat because it can no longer afford to do business in a lot of places.
06:36 DaemonFC; https://matrix-client.matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/NxcbCXdxHKNuAdGKWnRczXXG
06:37 DaemonFC; schestowitz, That's what I love about this engine.

23:07 DaemonFC; A 9-0 decision upholding Freedom of Speech.
23:07 DaemonFC; mjg59_ must be a sad panda.
23:08 DaemonFC; It stands to reason that if Mr. GULAG wanted the cops to be able to arrest someone for saying trannies are weird, he would love the court to tear apart Section 230.
23:10 DaemonFC; Section 230 being reversed would open up a Pandora's Box. The lawsuit against Twitter is just an unusual case because of course who doesn't feel sympathy for the victims of ISIS terrorists? But if you get rid of Section 230 completely, it becomes so dangerous to run an Internet/Web company or service in the United States that an entire industry dies.
23:11 DaemonFC; Not just industry, but it becomes dangerous to even self-host something, including an IRC server or a Mastodon instance.
23:11 DaemonFC; Section 230 pretty much gives you immunity from the actions of your users as long as you are taking reasonable steps to try to get rid of unlawful conduct.
23:11 *psydruid wonders why gcc generates so much garbage assembly compared to what you get using handwritten assembly
23:11 DaemonFC; * psydruid wonders why gcc generates so much garbage assembly compared to what you get using handwritten assembly
23:12 DaemonFC; GCC is a pretty bad program but it's not as bad as trying to use Clang and then debug what you've compiled.
23:12 DaemonFC; The only "advantage" Clang has is that it doesn't compel anyone using it to keep it as Free Software. So that's an advantage for abusive entities.
23:13 psydruid; I find Clang easier to hack on, but it has ridiculous memory requirements
23:13 DaemonFC; The actual binaries it creates are just fucking weird sometimes.
23:13 DaemonFC; To get something truly fucking weird out of GCC, you usually have to use it with some rather draconian binary hardening or higher optimization levels, or both.
23:14 psydruid; And GCC seems to be tested better across architectures
23:14 psydruid; with Clang I always had to apply patches to get it to build on non-x86 architectures
23:14 psydruid; that's "modern software development"
23:14 psydruid; Rust-style
23:15 DaemonFC; GCC doesn't always handle PowerPC well, but that's often the fault of the maintainers of the program.
23:15 DaemonFC; Mozilla could care less if Firefox builds right on x86. So you can imagine what the PowerPC support is like.
23:16 psydruid; The last time I tried to build Firefox the experience was so horrible that I haven't tried since
23:16 psydruid; with multiple versions of automake and autoconf needed for various parts of the build
23:17 psydruid; I don't know what kind of software engineering that is, but I don't think that's an acceptable way to do things
23:20 IPFS; () Planet Gemini updated. Latest complete date at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2023-05-20.gmi and so far today at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2023-05-21.gmi with 3-day aggregate at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/allinone.gmi
23:23 DaemonFC; It didn't used to be hard to build.
23:24 DaemonFC; autoconf is bad when you're only dealing with a single version of it.
23:24 DaemonFC; IIRC, it tests for operating systems that don't even exist.
23:30 DaemonFC; https://lwn.net/Articles/834682/
23:30 TR Bot; Autoconf [LWN.net]
23:30 DaemonFC; It's fixed in a git tree even though there's been no release in 10 years. -GNU
23:31 DaemonFC; I think one reason that there's so much distrust of GNU is that they're not good about pushing out released versions sometimes and telling people to use that.
23:31 DaemonFC; And if they do, they're really bad about breaking something important and not caring that they did.
23:32 DaemonFC; Linux has some problems, but at least they push out versions and it's not exactly some "Oh, go patch the shit out of this if you want it to work." and everyone does their own thing, because it doesn't tend to decay into that.
23:32 DaemonFC; "Legacy GRUB" is a perfect example of GNU.
23:33 DaemonFC; Every distribution had their own patches. They published the patches, but GNU said oh we're finished with that and we don't accept patches, but GRUB2 isn't ready yet. So what do you do? You end up maintaining it yourself.
23:33 DaemonFC; You think you'll apply all these patches that either you wrote or you saw someone else use.
23:33 DaemonFC; And now it's corrupting file systems.
23:33 DaemonFC; But the patches applied!
23:33 DaemonFC; Which combination of patches led to corrupt file systems? Depends on the distribution.
23:34 DaemonFC; So for the longest time we were in this situation where "We're kind of sure that ext 2 and 3 are probably safe-ish."
23:34 DaemonFC; "Anything else, you're on your own. Even if there appears to be code there to handle that."
23:35 MinceR; 22 002435 < DaemonFC> IIRC, it tests for operating systems that don't even exist.
23:35 MinceR; not as bad as cmake
23:35 DaemonFC; It's why Fedora has traditionally been so particular that /boot goes on an ext file system.
23:35 DaemonFC; Because it's the only thing you might be able to say confidently that GRUB won't corrupt.
23:35 MinceR; which can't even find a library if its hand isn't held by a file preinstalled for it alongside the library
23:36 DaemonFC; I think a lot of stuff is moving over to meson now.
23:59 psydruid; they have a cmake2meson.py script, which I'm going to try tomorrow
23:59 psydruid; https://mesonbuild.com/Build-system-converters.html
