00:24 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I like those SPECIAL and GOAT tests in Fallout games.
00:25 DaemonFC; I think I'd be one of those characters where someone asked "You've made a mistake that will have serious consequences if anyone finds out." questions

00:26 DaemonFC; I accidentally dumped Mandy's coffee jelly in the sink when I was refilling the water because he left it there in the fridge, so I scooped it all up and into the trash so he won't notice.

00:27 DaemonFC; Sometimes all you can do is hide the evidence that you screwed up and hope nobody notices.
00:27 DaemonFC; The funny thing is that a lot of people aren't real competent about how to do this.

02:20 DaemonFC; So by "removing it" (thought it was already removed....) we don't know what this means. It could mean either that they plan to remove the actual Internet Explorer browser and just leave an iexplore.exe stub that only has enough code in it to launch Edge.
02:21 DaemonFC; It could also mean that they don't even do that, they just make damned sure that you can't make it launch even though the code to run it is still there.

02:21 DaemonFC; Either way, the user has been able to "remove" Internet Explorer (the browser) since Windows 7, but 95% of Internet Explorer remains.
02:21 DaemonFC; Without Trident (MSHTML), certain Windows programs break, and now, the Internet Explorer Mode in Edge won't work.
02:22 schestowitz[TR]; so they lie basically
02:22 schestowitz[TR]; in "tech" media
02:22 DaemonFC; You can force any Web page to load in Trident using IE Mode, including Techrights.
02:22 DaemonFC; So regardless, the user can always use Internet Explorer if they want to even if the program is removed.

02:23 TR Bot; How OSI will renew its board of directors in 2023 - Voices of Open Source
02:24 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Yes, that's true. Conceptually, a lot of how Internet Explorer is designed was copied in Linux desktops like KDE and GNOME. For example, KDE had KHTML and Konqueror was all sorts of things, including a file manager, an FTP browser, a Web browser, a Gopher client, and KHTML was loaded sort of like IE loads Trident. Konqueror actually was a good program though. Before XP SP2, you could open the Windows Explorer and turn it into
02:24 DaemonFC; an Internet Explorer by typing a Web address into the bar instead of something from the local system.
02:25 DaemonFC; And so KDE saw how this all worked and did Konqueror similarly, and it worked very well as Konqueror in KDE.

Sometimes Readability fails to find an article, or fully extract it, so I added in "raw mode

05:05 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Well, I found out what finally happened to Thomson Consumer Electronics, or what was left of it.
05:05 DaemonFC; The company my dad sank almost 30 years of his life into.
05:06 DaemonFC; That division was sold off under Bankruptcy administration for 100 million Euro in the middle of last year.
05:06 DaemonFC; What would that be in dollars? Close, I think.
05:06 DaemonFC; The Euro is not what it was.
05:07 DaemonFC; $106 million in USD terms.
05:07 DaemonFC; That's not a lot of money.
05:07 DaemonFC; They went from being a tech company producing hardware equivalent to Sony's, much of it from that era still working today if you have a DTA TV converter.
05:07 DaemonFC; Even without repairs.
05:08 DaemonFC; To being sold off for $106 million.
05:08 DaemonFC; The strong Euro is probably what killed off Mandriva, honestly.
05:08 DaemonFC; Their software and services were priced in a currency that was massively overvalued, which made it impossible to export.
05:10 DaemonFC; If the Euro had not been overvalued from the early 2000s onward, they probably would have had an easier time licensing it in countries where it was unaffordable or at least uncompetitive due to the currency exchange issue.
05:10 DaemonFC; It's not like you can't just make a Linux distribution and sell it in your home country.
05:10 DaemonFC; So I think the Euro helped RHT clobber them into extinction.
05:11 DaemonFC; The only market it could sell in realistically was the Eurozone.
05:11 DaemonFC; Financially, they've been a dumpster fire for a long time.
05:11 DaemonFC; The true extent of it was merely hidden so that they could keep financing their exorbitant expenses.
05:11 DaemonFC; Like a massive public sector and lots of welfare.
05:12 DaemonFC; Now they're bankrupt and the pensioners are rioting over "work until you're 68, no 70, no 75....".
05:12 DaemonFC; Burning shit in the street.
05:12 DaemonFC; Worrying about "yanks". Worried about everything except where they are, and what they should be doing.
05:13 DaemonFC; The Euro is trash.
05:14 DaemonFC; Europe has been having currency shocks and inflation and devaluation and tax increases, to the point where you're afraid to even turn the heat on or take a hot shower in Germany.
05:14 DaemonFC; And so some people blame the US for that.
05:15 DaemonFC; Building up a dependence on an unstable dictatorship for 70% of your energy needs.....yeah, totally the fault of Americans.
05:15 DaemonFC; They ought to cut the shit. They should have cut the shit a long time ago.
05:15 DaemonFC; The EU is using Climate Change as a crushing wheel to kill the poor.
05:16 DaemonFC; And America isn't there yet because a lot of people here haven't been stupid enough to let the wealthy elite sell us that narrative.
05:16 DaemonFC; Just sacrifice everything from your showers to your car to meat to hot water to coffee.
05:16 DaemonFC; Sew an ipad into your skin and cut your dick off and eat bugs.
05:17 DaemonFC; I was talking to the podiatrist about "Climate Change". I said that they're using it to sell us on all of these unreliable power sources that are at least partially responsible for the Texas grid collapses.
05:18 DaemonFC; And you can't get much power out of them and it's not a reliable baseload.
05:18 DaemonFC; You can't always expect the wind or the sun, and when you can you never get an ideal amount of power out of solar cells because of where Illinois actually is.
05:19 DaemonFC; And there's no responsible way to cut these things up and dispose of them. Nobody recycles them, so they're just more junk in a landfill after producing a lot of expensive and unreliable power for a little while.

05:20 DaemonFC; The answer is modern nuclear reactor designs, and not more Billshit and Bill Sez, because he'll pump the Department of Energy for those godawful molten salt things, and they'll build the prototype eventually, but you want to know where this is going?
05:20 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], It's going nowhere.
05:20 DaemonFC; We won't be able to run even the prototype reliably.
05:21 DaemonFC; It will be an unproven design, with bugs. The only experiments of this type were more than 60 years ago, and they could never make it work reliably then
05:21 DaemonFC; They had about 500% more downtime than they planned and then gave up.
05:22 DaemonFC; Molten Salt Reactors are the mRNA COVID shots of nuclear power.
05:22 DaemonFC; Could you make them work? Maybe. Are they practical? Hell no. They're dangerous. They're expensive. You don't know how they'll function. Bill is already talking like we have all the kinks worked out and nobody has even tried one of these things at this scale ever, or of the type in almost twice my lifetime.
05:22 DaemonFC; But fucking CNN man.
05:23 DaemonFC; These things make credible nuclear physicists nervous and upset.
05:23 DaemonFC; But those people don't get interviews with CNN.
05:23 DaemonFC; Bill sez.
05:24 DaemonFC; When the experts are saying slow down because this probably won't work and you're wasting your money, but in this other corner you have a rich criminal who was pals with Epstein.
05:24 DaemonFC; Nothing I've read about molten salt reactors has inspired me with a lot of confidence about them.
05:24 DaemonFC; Bill Gates is a flim-flam man.
05:25 DaemonFC; The fusion power experiments that are producing more energy than went into them have changed things even more.
05:26 DaemonFC; With the money we're pissing away on Bill Gates and his investment in molten salt, we could be researching fusion energy.
05:28 DaemonFC; Hydrogen fusion doesn't risk a runaway reaction the same way that a nuclear fission reactor can meltdown. In the case of fission, the reaction wants to accelerate all by itself to catastrophic effect and if you don't slow it down, that's exactly what happens inside of a minute or two.
05:29 DaemonFC; You can get, you know, horrible disasters that leave the core exposed and kill all life on a continent inside of 6-7 months if you don't get it contained, which is exactly what happened in Ukraine in 1986.
05:29 DaemonFC; That's what the projection was.
05:29 DaemonFC; Pretty much everything dead in 6-7 months.
05:30 DaemonFC; The cleanup effort was rushed and they expoded many thousands of people to horrible levels of radiation because it was get it contained or else.
05:30 DaemonFC; *exposed
05:30 DaemonFC; I don't even want to think about what a nuclear reactor exploding would look like in America.
05:31 DaemonFC; Could you imagine anyone here volunteering to go anywhere near that?
05:31 DaemonFC; Boomers are assholes.
05:31 DaemonFC; "GenZ" would be too busy crying in the bathroom that someone was mean to them during their shift at Starbucks.
05:32 DaemonFC; Matt GULAG would be on a plane to the exact opposite side of the planet.
05:32 DaemonFC; "It hasn't happened here."
05:32 DaemonFC; Good thing too!
05:33 DaemonFC; I don't see any Americans who aren't so Narcissistic and self-absorbed that they'd go near it. Not even to save other people. Not even for money.
05:33 DaemonFC; They offer people $19 an hour now to stock shelves at Walmart.
05:33 DaemonFC; Nobody shows up.
05:34 DaemonFC; We couldn't get 40% of the people in this country to take COVID shots when there was an argument that they *might* slow things down.
05:34 DaemonFC; We couldn't get half of them to wear a mask.
05:34 DaemonFC; 20-30% thought it was funny to get right up in your face when they knew they were sick.
05:35 DaemonFC; Some knocked over mask displays, punched store clerks, and shot people for asking them to wear a mask.
05:35 DaemonFC; What happened in Japan?
05:35 DaemonFC; Old people volunteered to clean up Fukushima.

14:26 schestowitz[TR]; the servers there are build with heavy components
14:26 schestowitz[TR]; 'donated' by the companies covered
14:26 schestowitz[TR]; the last time I paid more than 200 pounds for a PC was... maybe 1990s
14:26 schestowitz[TR]; and it wasn't me, it was my dad
14:26 schestowitz[TR]; Compaq with 32MB of RAM
14:26 schestowitz[TR]; that too was quite cheap at the time
14:27 schestowitz[TR]; maybe 200 pounds

17:33 schestowitz[TR]; and i cannot think of a tore that sellfs gnu/linux preinstalled over the counter
17:33 schestowitz[TR]; and low budget, too
17:33 geert; yea well if you dont want compromised crap talking about 'wintel' i suggest you leave chromebook FAR from her

17:36 schestowitz[TR]; on an old pc from my sister i put pclos and gave it to my dad
17:36 geert; since with a tiny bit configuration, one would get a second hand laptop running faster than a rather newer chromebook for less money, more privacy focused and she just initiate image overwrite herself if stuff gets hairy i guess?

17:43 geert; schesto; a distro wants 'usage' or 'appliance', more 'userbase'/popularity often kind of associated to 'more development/maintance' AND, albeit often more of secretly, more propagation of 'choices' of 'maintainers' like some tries to spread 'political ideologies'
17:44 geert; basically if core better 'organized', forking software becomes much more easy, binaries are much more easily interoperable between varying architectures
17:45 geert; also such organization EASILY compromises security, one of causes that many people kind of seem to fear such type of architecture interoperability stimulation
17:45 geert; as it seems to me
17:46 geert; much ppc cpu simulate x86, maybe thats got to do with it, that in combination with relatively low userbase, one try maximize maintainer effort focusing to more userbase meanwhile leaning on ppc x86 simulation to still deliver compatibility with ppc i guess
17:47 geert; theres selectivity i think in so called 'banning' or 'de-motivating usage' with EU based on biased political grounds

17:55 schestowitz[TR]; while multitasking ehre, try to save my fish's life
17:55 schestowitz[TR]; and posting links
17:55 schestowitz[TR]; so this morning i spoke to mom
17:55 schestowitz[TR]; over mumble, which is freesw and e2ee
17:56 schestowitz[TR]; she mentioned she needs a printer
17:56 schestowitz[TR]; and for that she needs a laptop
17:56 schestowitz[TR]; i think she might still have some very old desktop, but not sure anymore
17:56 schestowitz[TR]; so I though she might but a "PC"
17:56 schestowitz[TR]; read: Windows
17:57 schestowitz[TR]; and instead of me jumping in to take care of a new PC (install, maintain, support) i said she would look into something not windows and apple
17:57 schestowitz[TR]; the stores typically only have "chromebooks" if it's not Apple or Microsoft
17:57 schestowitz[TR]; or I could ask my sister to install Debian 11 for her
17:57 schestowitz[TR]; my sister is a debian user

23:12 DaemonFC; But the article says 120 laid off in Germany.
23:13 DaemonFC; "On Thursday, news agency Reuters reported that Microsoft, the American technology giant, plans to cut up to 120 jobs in Germany as part of its global job cuts, according to business news outlet WirtschaftsWoche. The report suggests that this fresh round of layoffs will impact Microsofts operations in Germany."

23:20 DaemonFC; "
23:20 DaemonFC; The German subsidiary of the US software manufacturer Microsoft is to cut between 100 and 120 employees as part of the group-wide job cuts program. WirtschaftsWoche learned this from business circles. That would correspond to up to four percent of the 3,000 employees at Microsoft Germany. In the group as a whole, the rate should be somewhat higher. Microsoft boss Satya Nadella announced in January that he wanted to cut 10,000 jobs worldwide -
23:20 DaemonFC; that would be five percent of all employees. The German headquarters of Microsoft in Munich did not want to comment on the local reduction figures.

23:43 DaemonFC; A cop replied that there was no excuse.
23:43 DaemonFC; I replied to the cop:
23:43 DaemonFC; What other reason do they need except a badge and being drunk with power like most cops are?
23:43 DaemonFC; The only reason other cops and their right-wing cop union are pretending to be mad about this is because they acted so stupidly that they got caught doing what goes on in every city in America every day that they usually manage not to bungle the cover up job later.
23:43 DaemonFC; The tide of public opinion is rapidly turning against police misconduct and incidents like these make oversight, which they don't want, all the more likely to eventually happen when the politicians can't lie and help them cover up their crime anymore.
