01:57 leah; schestowitz-TR: that nail varnish trick was invented by denis carikli

01:57 leah; more bullshit from purism, just copying everyone else
01:57 leah; i've been doing the nail varnish trick for years
01:57 leah; years
01:57 *CParadoxum_ has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

01:59 leah; hide debian and call it pureos
01:59 leah; rip off everyone's work and contribute nothing
01:59 leah; and scam customers
01:59 leah; that's todd's way

01:59 leah; a non-threat
02:00 leah; just a shitty dude exploiting people's gullibility
02:00 leah; everyone who spends more than 5 minutes realizes todd is fake
02:00 leah; todd is just selling to people who believe whatever they're told without checking
02:01 leah; it's like that episode of better call saul where saul starts selling flipphones to gangsters
02:01 leah; and you see em all lining up
02:01 leah; "50% off"
02:01 leah; lol

02:07 leah; just write-protect the flash and glob some epoxy over it
02:07 leah; that'll do it
02:07 leah; hdd and spi flash is where an evil maid will go
02:08 leah; that, plus full disk encryption and sig checks in grub

02:13 kingoffrance; in real life, i think evil maid is just going to take your stuff. "and find me someone that doesn't cost millions of dollars who knows how to really hack your shitty hardware" <-- yes, evil maid is going to pawn shop

02:13 leah; you can't make such things invisible
02:14 MinceR; they're covered by the case

02:14 leah; do you think they're going to manufacture a whole new board for just you?
02:14 leah; no
02:14 leah; whatever they solder will be immediately visible
02:14 MinceR; they might but i don't think it's necessary
02:14 leah; probably some modboard
02:14 MinceR; and i don't think they'd need to solder anything for this
02:15 MinceR; they use some sort of ribbon cable, don't they?

02:16 leah; i guarantee you it's going to look like that lol
02:16 leah; (btw in case you're wondering, that's a ps1 modchip)
02:17 leah; yeah and i think you'll notice if some shitty radio device in your laptop is draining battery life all of a sudden

11:46 schestowitz-TR; we work from home and have no kids, so we can easily avoid it also
11:47 DaemonFC; We don't have kids, at least.
11:47 DaemonFC; The teenagers at the high school were on the verge of rioting over wearing face masks.
11:47 DaemonFC; They deduce that the disease won't kill them, so who cares.
11:47 DaemonFC; Some will kill their grandparents, some will kill their parents.
11:48 DaemonFC; But in my observation, few people worry about consequences until they've already done what brought the consequences.
11:48 DaemonFC; If they kill their dad, then that creates a problem for them, most likely.
11:49 DaemonFC; Nobody really knows what it does long term, even to teenagers.
11:49 DaemonFC; It appears to be mostly harmless to them, and to go away. There's nothing to say it won't come back to haunt them in 10 years.

11:56 DaemonFC; And they have really shitty "repair centers". They contract out to third parties who didn't even make the phone, and it tells them "He hasn't been using Samsung charging cables!".
11:56 DaemonFC; Oh, this is probably why the pins became physically damaged after 20 times plugging it in. Sure!
11:57 DaemonFC; schestowitz, This is mostly so they can sell you "phone insurance" which adds half another phone payment to your bill every month.
11:58 DaemonFC; In case something happens. Then you can pay a deductible, to get some used phone they happen to have, which may not even be similar to the one you lost.
11:58 DaemonFC; It comes through the carrier.
11:58 DaemonFC; So your Galaxy S20 broke. Here, have a Nokia.
11:58 DaemonFC; Someone else used it.

12:11 DaemonFC; The IRS only audits about 0.17% of filers making between $50,000 and $100,000 a year.

12:13 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, Mom said that their return got audited all the time when she was with dad.
12:14 DaemonFC; He'd try to claim ridiculous amounts of charitable gifts to thrift shops.
12:14 DaemonFC; The IRS would disallow some of it and almost every year they'd get a letter back saying the IRS wanted another $500-600.
12:18 DaemonFC; I don't know why, but he thinks he's smarter than everyone else.
12:19 DaemonFC; He thinks that even when there's evidence to the contrary, like having your taxes audited for 15 years in a row.
12:21 DaemonFC; Facts and evidence don't mean much to mom and dad, which probably explains why they get suckered so easily.
12:22 DaemonFC; Mom contemptuously mocks my dad for thinking that there's a spaceship coming to take him and Jan away and for donating to Scientology.

13:28 DaemonFC; He does things like going to H&R Block, which fucked his tax return for years and then had him pay the state of Indiana over $20,000 he didn't even owe them.
13:28 DaemonFC; Then on the flip side, he had the IRS up in his shit over bogus deductions worth hundreds.
13:30 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, Oh, but when he and mom moved into a new house, he was going to leave her with a broken oven that didn't work because he didn't want to spend a few hundred bucks on one. My aunt, the realtor, had to convince him the IRS was really going to take the profit he made off the old house if he didn't spend at least $5,500 or something on the new one. So he told mom she could spend that and not a penny more.
13:30 DaemonFC; So she was hunting through carpet remnants and she got an oven that worked. I mean, he's weird. What did he expect for dinner with a broken oven?
13:31 DaemonFC; Meanwhile, he's cutting Scientology checks for $700 auditing sessions to clear body thetans.

13:33 activelow; total electricity consumption lowered ~-40% by replacing the old amd64 tower with aarch64 SBC
13:33 DaemonFC; It's almost impossible to get a good computer in the United States.
13:34 DaemonFC; Intel and AMD are a duopoly here, and the three choices in the store are Windows, Mac OS, and Chrome OS.
13:34 DaemonFC; Intel's processors are like the Hummer H2's gas mileage. You're cruising down the highway, a dollar per mile in gas alone.
13:34 SomeH4x0r; don't bother with pre-installed OS. I suggest reinstalling it whatever it is.
13:35 SomeH4x0r; or expect unnecessary software/OS modifications, which might as well be malicious
13:35 DaemonFC; The software doesn't help if it's written incompetently.
13:35 activelow; anyway, 38Euros electricity bill monthly for a low-consumption household is still very expensive, doubt i can cut this down much anymore
13:36 DaemonFC; Your laptop is much more likely to be maxing out the CPU and burning lava hot all the time just sitting there running Windows.
13:36 activelow; too, the report mentions, since january i am provided with "eco electricity"
13:36 DaemonFC; You have no idea why. A lot of the Windows malware is designed to see when the user opens the Task Manager and drop to idle.
13:37 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, I'm considering trying out Chrome OS Flex on the old laptop from 2016.
13:37 DaemonFC; It's still got better specs than a Chromebook and I think it has the "Linux" subsystem.
13:40 schestowitz-TR; activelow: for one person 38 euros seems OK
13:40 schestowitz-TR; assuming you have hot showers in winter
13:41 DaemonFC; Mandy has no idea how I can stand my showers so hot.
13:41 activelow; schestowitz-TR: it is the electricity bill only, for 440Euro/1100KWh per year
13:41 DaemonFC; I told him "Just years and years of getting in there and turning it all the way up.".
13:42 DaemonFC; It helps with depression.
13:42 activelow; btw. i already turned off heating, and do not take a hot shower often, total hot water consumption was 14cubic meters annually, which i pay another 70Euros/month for
13:43 activelow; sad situation with hot water/heating is, low consumption is sanctioned by a higher price per cubic meter payed, because the base fee indepedent from consumption is calculated per square meter

13:49 DaemonFC; I don't think that China particularly wants a lot of people in prison.
13:49 DaemonFC; It has no trouble sending people there if they become inconvenient to the state, but I don't think it wants them there, again and again.
13:50 DaemonFC; In the US, they destroy you so that after a time or two, nobody will hire you or even rent you an apartment, and the obvious place this goes is from infractions to petty crimes, petty crimes, to misdemeanors, misdemeanors to felonies.
13:51 DaemonFC; And then there's nowhere you can go except prison. If they ever let you out, you'll be destitute and you'll either commit suicide or another crime so you can either be done with it or be back in where they at least are feeding you.
13:52 DaemonFC; China just wants to brainwash and demoralize people so it can let them out and they won't cause trouble again.
13:52 DaemonFC; Which is "reformative" in its own way, you know.
13:52 DaemonFC; The US gave up trying to reform prisoners. It was a very short-lived ideal.

In Beijing, I had a friend who had spent three years in the late 1950's in a Manchurian prison camp, digging irrigation ditches out of the frozen earth. Among his memories were the wagons of the dead, their spindly legs sticking out under burlap covers, being taken to burial sites by other prisoners. My friend, who normally weighed about 150 pounds, was down to about 80

15:09 SomeH4x0r; so I decided to investigate
15:09 schestowitz-TR; SomeH4x0r: afaik, ircv3 does not cause issues for older clients
15:09 SomeH4x0r; it is not an excuse to ruin the protocol
15:09 SomeH4x0r; SASL enforcement *does* cause issues
15:10 SomeH4x0r; ergo ircd in general does things which make people confused
15:10 schestowitz-TR; freenode did that
15:10 schestowitz-TR; SASL
15:10 MinceR; does IRCv3 enforce SASL? i thought it didn't
15:10 schestowitz-TR; I use very old IRC clients
15:10 MinceR; ergo is weird but it does let you connect without SASL
15:11 SomeH4x0r; it doesn't require enforcing SASL or something, but ircds implement it
15:11 schestowitz-TR; we can remove the code and recompile :-)
15:11 SomeH4x0r; or just choose a sane ircd

15:12 schestowitz-TR; you don't need a cert either
15:13 schestowitz-TR; we have non-ssl access enabled
15:13 schestowitz-TR; on the approporiate port
15:13 schestowitz-TR; which is how I access it
15:13 SomeH4x0r; not an excuse. You can use self-signed. But you trust the enemy.
15:13 schestowitz-TR; the problem is the client side
15:13 activelow; i was concerned about the ircv3 message-id "feature", not SASL
15:13 schestowitz-TR; and things that ENFORCE the "new stuff"
15:14 SomeH4x0r; yes, it is about ruining the IRC stuff too
15:14 schestowitz-TR; SomeH4x0r: the problem is, again, the IRC clients
15:14 schestowitz-TR; they would panic over self-signed
15:14 schestowitz-TR; like silly Web browsers do
15:14 SomeH4x0r; you don't care about this with web browsers
15:14 SomeH4x0r; irssi is sane
15:14 schestowitz-TR; we self sign the site's cert
15:14 schestowitz-TR; and we do not even advertise that
15:14 schestowitz-TR; same for capsule
15:15 schestowitz-TR; gemini is tls-strict
15:15 SomeH4x0r; but what is wrong with IRC?
15:15 schestowitz-TR; use irc withouit ssl
15:15 schestowitz-TR; and no sasl
15:15 schestowitz-TR; weechat seems to be replacing irssi for many
15:15 SomeH4x0r; or don't be lazy to actually change the default stuff?
15:16 schestowitz-TR; naa
15:16 SomeH4x0r; it did use my CPU a lot for some reason, I chosen irssi then
15:16 schestowitz-TR; shouting at me to change back to lesser wanted (by other people) would not help
15:17 schestowitz-TR; btw, the LE thing
15:17 schestowitz-TR; to outsource to another entity would cost
15:17 schestowitz-TR; and to self-sign would mean obstruct some clients
15:17 SomeH4x0r; it is the enemy and you trust it anyway, ok
15:17 schestowitz-TR; so you can just use non-ssl access
15:17 schestowitz-TR; you know it's just for access auth, right?
15:18 schestowitz-TR; it does not let LE (LF) spy on your messages
15:18 activelow; ssl is transport-layer encryption, which isn't the favorable choice with irc anyway
15:18 schestowitz-TR; it's just an initial authenticity check
15:19 schestowitz-TR; the irc lcient connected
15:19 schestowitz-TR; asks jim 'and none of you have heard of me" zemlin if the ip seems legit
15:19 schestowitz-TR; based on domaina and cert
15:19 schestowitz-TR; and then you're in
15:19 schestowitz-TR; you can skip this check
15:20 activelow; with IRC OTR plugin or Fish provide end-to-end application-layer encryption, and peer-authentication, including key-exchange
15:20 schestowitz-TR; or disregard the warnings completely, ot LE/LF
15:20 schestowitz-TR; ot you could use mumble
15:20 schestowitz-TR; it's e2ee
15:20 SomeH4x0r; with such CAs, it is better to disable certificate verification system-wide
15:20 schestowitz-TR; and locally hosted from home
15:20 SomeH4x0r; is it possible to do so on GNU/Linux?
15:20 schestowitz-TR; SomeH4x0r: I agree
15:20 schestowitz-TR; better to disable them completely
15:21 schestowitz-TR; "Trust on first contact"
15:21 schestowitz-TR; warming if it changes
15:21 activelow; at least, irssi implemented certificate fingerprint pinning, which is crucial for "trust on first use" (tofu) for transport-layer protection
15:21 schestowitz-TR; like if you rebuilt the systems
15:21 SomeH4x0r; Let's Encrypt fucked this up as well, with 90-day certificates

15:29 schestowitz-TR; it's good for the planet
15:29 DaemonFC; They keep giving us more Gs with little improvement in performance.
15:30 DaemonFC; Actual speed tests have shown that T-Mobile "5G" towers are hardly any faster than LTE with aggregation was.
15:30 DaemonFC; We're talking maybe a 15% performance improvement.
15:30 DaemonFC; The reason they want to roll it out so badly is they're running it in range mode, not performance mode.
15:31 DaemonFC; That way they don't have to build very many towers, but can keep increasing your bill anyway.
15:31 schestowitz-TR; the overlooked aspect is,
15:31 schestowitz-TR; the patrent everygreenin
15:31 schestowitz-TR; they turn off protocol support
15:31 DaemonFC; And when the tower becomes overloaded, they just start disconnecting their heavy users.
15:31 schestowitz-TR; after <20 years
15:31 schestowitz-TR; so you cannot use patent-free stuff

15:32 schestowitz-TR; while flinging new patents into the "patent pool" every year
15:32 DaemonFC; Usually more in the evening.
15:32 DaemonFC; Makes me wonder....how much is the modem's fault and how much is T-Mobile disconnecting me on purpose to free up their own resources when I get aggravated and stop bothering.
15:32 schestowitz-TR; but,,, 5G(reen)
15:32 schestowitz-TR; it's so much faster
15:33 schestowitz-TR; just don't take advantage of the speed!
15:33 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, They have something set up so that the phone is really fast when you're in one of their stores.Then you walk away from the store and the phone goes back to not working very well.
15:34 DaemonFC; They denied it, but I told the guy "I know you have some sort of cell tower simulator in your stores that's hooked up to fast internet to make it look like your phones perform better, until people actually buy one.".
15:34 DaemonFC; Too coincidental to be a coincidence.
15:34 DaemonFC; YOur T-Mobile phone works great in any store.
15:35 DaemonFC; You leave the store, it goes back to being really slow and temperamental.
15:35 DaemonFC; They wouldn't sell very many if they didn't seem to work okay in the store, would they?

15:36 schestowitz-TR; they know what to hide from you
15:36 DaemonFC; "Why is CTA purchasing diesel buses?
15:36 DaemonFC; Its important to know that diesel buses were always part of our fleet conversion plans. Currently, 64% of the buses in our fleet are at the end of their useful life, which is 12-14 years old. Without this recent diesel bus purchase, we would have to cut service and/or rely on a severely aged diesel fleet that is less reliable and emits higher levels of harmful emissions. The diesel buses purchased in 2021 will be retired before the 204

15:38 schestowitz-TR; with empty seats
15:38 DaemonFC; Diesel is running $4 a gallon right now.
15:38 DaemonFC; Which is 45 cents more per gallon than gasoline.
15:38 activelow; very cheap, per liter
15:39 DaemonFC; It used to be the other way around.
15:39 activelow; price in germany is almost twice as much
15:39 DaemonFC; People brought diesel cars into the US because Diesel was cheaper than gasoline.
15:39 DaemonFC; It was the only reason to tolerate them.
15:39 DaemonFC; Especially in hard winter states.
15:40 activelow; Diesel has an emission problem (dust and nitrogen-oxides); otherwise Diesel engines are reasonable, in comparison to most electric vehicles
15:40 DaemonFC; Now between it costing 45-50 cents per gallon more (same gas mileage), and the Diesel Emissions Fluid the computer forces you to put in, else it goes into limp home mode....
15:40 DaemonFC; Not so cheap.
15:41 DaemonFC; If you run out of DEF, then the computer will stop you from driving it at more than 55 miles an hour until you put more in.

15:56 activelow; i don't see how Russia/Putin violated this
15:57 activelow; the relevant aspect, my opinion, is, Ukraine is a marionette of USA foreign interests, and the Biden clan involvement with "Burisma" and Oil/Gas business
15:59 activelow; however, Russia/Putin don't seem to be honest too, because Russia did provide USA with Oil/Gas worth 600Milliarden (US billion, 600E9 cash), which Putin currently hoards

18:16 *activelow (~activelow@xhe89khtfanwe.irc) has joined #techrights
18:16 schestowitz-TR; split up families can be a financial burden on the state
18:16 schestowitz-TR; this is not even about religion
18:16 schestowitz-TR; for a whole lot of reasons matrimony makes the state better off
18:17 schestowitz-TR; but not real estate or divorce laywers
18:17 schestowitz-TR; they prefer to rent out twice as many "properties"
18:17 DaemonFC; Yep.
18:17 schestowitz-TR; and split up residences
18:17 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, Being married has a lot of financial benefits.
18:17 schestowitz-TR; tax, shared space
18:17 DaemonFC; It lowers our living costs to just over half of what we'd pay separately.
18:17 schestowitz-TR; looking after kids
18:17 DaemonFC; And it has tax breaks.
18:19 DaemonFC; For the state, it costs them a little in taxes, but the combined couple is less likely to file for welfare.
18:19 DaemonFC; And the welfare two poor single people get costs a lot more than the tax cuts you get when you get married and are less poor.
18:20 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, The CBO studied what would happen if gay people could get married in 2004.
18:20 DaemonFC; The Republicans were hoping it would conclude it would cost the government more.
18:20 DaemonFC; When the CBO came back to them, it said it would save the federal government alone $14 million in each of the next 10 years.
18:21 DaemonFC; Humously, 10 years later, it was legalized by the courts.
18:21 DaemonFC; But in the 10 years between 2004-2014, the federal government spent over $140 million just to keep it illegal for 10 more years.
18:21 DaemonFC; *humorously
18:22 DaemonFC; The government doesn't always care about fiscal stability.
18:22 DaemonFC; It would much rather see the incumbent party re-elected.
18:22 schestowitz-TR; depends whose
18:22 schestowitz-TR; not poor couples
18:22 schestowitz-TR; now it's 100% oligarchs'
18:22 schestowitz-TR; who subbed themselves "job creators"
18:22 DaemonFC; So they'll do whatever it takes to get back in, even if it makes the state worse off.

20:59 DaemonFC; I think I'll get my Pixel phone tomorrow.
20:59 DaemonFC; I'll do a review of it shortly after.
20:59 DaemonFC; Judging by the model on display at the store, it doesn't have any junk on it like the Samsung phones do.
20:59 DaemonFC; You have to pay double for a Samsung phone just to have a disjointed mess with the worst privacy situation out there.
21:01 DaemonFC; I saw a report a while back rating phone vendors by privacy. Samsung was the worst. It has stuff phoning home everywhere. Samsung, Google, Microsoft, Facebook....Just all out of the box.
21:01 DaemonFC; At least with the Pixel it's just whatever's going on with Google.

21:24 DaemonFC; They intend people to use streaming music.
21:24 DaemonFC; But Opus files aren't enormous.
21:24 MinceR; i don't like streaming music
21:24 MinceR; and i also don't like the cloud bullshit
21:24 DaemonFC; For a long time people said oh MP3s are fine. You can just use 320k and then put them all on an SD card, or a hard disk.
21:24 MinceR; cloud storage bullshit, i mean
21:24 DaemonFC; And now these phones are all ditching the SD port.
21:25 DaemonFC; But if you use Opus, you can still store a lot of files.
21:26 MinceR; or i can use a microsd card and put FLAC files on them
21:27 MinceR; what's more important for me is that if the device bricks itself, i can immediately take all my important data out of it and have access to it

22:13 DaemonFC; I was thinking about getting pulled over and written a seatbelt ticket in 2005.
22:14 DaemonFC; They fined me $20. Then I didn't have parking in the apartment I was renting so I parked in a 2 hour spot at the bank, for six months. Then the city noticed and fined me $5. (I didn't live in Illinois, obviously.)
22:14 schestowitz; bnchs: maybe write that to @result

22:15 DaemonFC; So I ask the lady at the courthouse if there's a city lot I can pay to park in. She says there is and it's $5 a month. So I paid it and got a pass with her signature on it, and then scanned it into my computer and matched the font and kept printing off a new pass every month that looked the same, but had a new date on it.
22:15 DaemonFC; Parked there for like a year.
22:15 bnchs; ok wait
22:17 DaemonFC; I thought it was funny. They issued me some fines so I just parked there for free all year without them noticing.
