03:07 DaemonFC; Just running the car on Top Tier detergent gas can reverse about 70-80% of the deposit buildup on the intake valves in 5,000 miles or so.
03:07 DaemonFC; But if you need to get some severe deposits out quickly, concentrated PEA in the gas tank will do it a lot faster.
03:09 DaemonFC; I don't normally use Top Tier gas brands because they're the most expensive.
03:09 DaemonFC; Lately, the premium to Thornton's and Speedway has been running up to 20 extra cents per gallon.
03:09 DaemonFC; And why do that if you can just dump a thing of PEA concentrate in it every few thousand miles yourself for about $9-10?
03:11 DaemonFC; About every 5,000 miles is when you're supposed to do it if you're not running Top Tier, according to KIA anyway.
03:11 DaemonFC; The KIA Soul I had got way better mileage than the Buick. I was getting 26 or 27 in the city. The Buick gets about 17 or 18.
03:12 DaemonFC; So if you mainly do city driving, KIA's advice is that about every 185 gallons of gas, toss in some detergent and run the tank down.
03:13 DaemonFC; Today, Shell was at 19 cents over Thornton's. So you're paying $35.15 more for Top Tier gas when you could pay $10-15 for a good PEA detergent package and do it yourself.
03:14 DaemonFC; The Buick goes through that much gas in 3,145 miles in the city.
03:15 DaemonFC; I save about $40 a year if I just put my own detergent in every few thousand miles.

03:17 DaemonFC; Typically where you save money on discount gasoline is marketing, and they're probably only using the minimum legal detergent package.
03:18 DaemonFC; But if you never add some detergent yourself to catch up, you start getting buildup. It's not as bad as non-detergent gas was.
03:18 DaemonFC; Non-detergent gas was a disaster in fuel injected cars.
03:19 DaemonFC; Honda was one of the last OEMs to use fuel injection in the US because the American car companies put them out and people were running non-detergent gas in them and it wreaked havoc on the engine.

04:24 DaemonFC; "Walmart is also cutting jobs in Portland as it closes its tech hub in the city. The retailer closed three tech offices across country last week. It employed 45 workers at its location in Portland as of 2019."
04:25 DaemonFC; Portland is a major left-coast Democrat shithole.
04:25 DaemonFC; Probably losing too much to theft and arson, like Chicago.

04:31 DaemonFC; "Total revenue hit a record $100.33 billion last year. Now, Pfizer (PFE) expects sales to fall by roughly 31% this year as its Covid vaccine and antiviral pill enter the commercial market in the U.S. This means the company can no longer rely on steady U.S. government contracts. The U.S. is also set to end its Covid public health emergency in May."
04:31 DaemonFC; "All of this comes as the omicron variant continues mutating. Today, a strain called XBB.1.5 makes up more than 80% of cases in the U.S. Pfizer and partner BioNTech (BNTX) have an updated Covid booster shot targeting the B.A.4 and B.A.5 subvariants of omicron. But those two strains account for virtually no cases in the U.S. anymore."

They will cash all US treasury bonds as soon as they can. In the meantime, US will also be happy for the trade imbalance going down."

04:56 DaemonFC; I don't think they have the ability to push us around too much by themselves though.
04:57 DaemonFC; Their share of outstanding US debt is only about 1.3%.
04:57 TR News; The FUD tactics against people who reject "smart" (spy) meters and turn down fake "progress" (restrictions) is terrible in the UK, probably elsewhere too
04:57 DaemonFC; I mean $900 billion sounds like a lot, but when you consider everything the US federal government owes, it's not all to China.
04:57 DaemonFC; In one way, it's more comparable to Japanese debt.
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; japan is in a tough place too
04:58 DaemonFC; The majority is owed to US corporations, citizens, and the government agencies themselves.
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; they already maxed up work hours
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; and don't bear kids
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; cannot
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; due to lack of time
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; or capital
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; no wage increases
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; and livving in shoeboxes
04:58 DaemonFC; Yeah, that's happening here too.
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; the media goes on about "fertility"
04:58 DaemonFC; Walmart is pruning the dead branches.
04:58 DaemonFC; I don't think Walmart is collapsing.
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; they misuse the term to imply health problems
04:58 schestowitz[TR]; rather than economic
04:58 DaemonFC; But I expect dozens more stores to close.
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; "consolidation"
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; first one major store
04:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; consolidating on brand
04:59 DaemonFC; They'll go after the ones in "flooded markets" and where crime is just too high.
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; then they shut down branches
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: unintended consequence
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; the people who shopped there travel further
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; and go to the other walmarts
04:59 schestowitz[TR]; so they don't get of "undesirable" people
05:00 schestowitz[TR]; like duterte kikcing out criminals out of davao
05:00 schestowitz[TR]; so they 'infect' otheer towns
05:00 schestowitz[TR]; like digos city
05:00 schestowitz[TR]; it does not solve the isuse
05:00 schestowitz[TR]; it 'rerlocates' it
05:00 DaemonFC; The closures sound shocking.
05:00 schestowitz[TR]; like busing the homeless out of town centres
05:00 DaemonFC; Walmart overbuilt. They have thousands of stores.
05:00 schestowitz[TR]; and then residents complain about people who sleep around the block from them
05:01 DaemonFC; It takes a lot to run them. Labor costs go up, dealing with more theft in neighborhoods that weren't bad when they went in.
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: hidingth the problem is not solving it
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; it's "remind me later"
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; procrastinating
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; and it bites back hardeer
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; walmart is not solving an issue
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; it just tries to shut down shops "in the red"
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; losses
05:01 schestowitz[TR]; to seem more profitable overall
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; trhey also don't say layoffs
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; they say shutting down stores
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; microsoft shut down ALL the stores in summer of 2020
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; of course many got laid off
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; but the media focuses on BS narrative
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; of "stores" going digital and "online"
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; how many people go to microsoft.com
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; and order a surface
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; oh wait
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; surface is layoffs too1
05:02 schestowitz[TR]; gone
05:03 schestowitz[TR]; jus got the phone bill
05:03 schestowitz[TR]; paid almost 20 pounds for phonecalls to just one pension provider
05:03 schestowitz[TR]; that kept lying or made false promises
05:03 DaemonFC; You pay for phone calls?
05:05 schestowitz[TR]; yes
05:05 schestowitz[TR]; you do too
05:05 schestowitz[TR]; maybe you PRE-pay
05:06 DaemonFC; Yeah, flat rate.
05:06 schestowitz[TR]; you also paid for all those low-efficacy vaccines
05:06 schestowitz[TR]; through uncle biden
05:06 DaemonFC; I complained it cost too much so they slipped me the discounted senior citizen plan.
05:06 DaemonFC; :P
05:06 schestowitz[TR]; they make it for 50 cents
05:06 schestowitz[TR]; you pay like 29 dollars a dose
05:06 schestowitz[TR]; then pfiser gets a hard-on on the proifits
05:06 DaemonFC; They have to stop customers from quitting to get retainment bonuses.
05:06 schestowitz[TR]; zer
05:06 DaemonFC; And so they fudge and say meh, maybe this guy is 55.
05:07 DaemonFC; How the hell do I know?
05:14 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Probably didn't know how long the riots and burning would go on and just decided to get rid of the stores.
05:14 schestowitz[TR]; maybe
05:14 schestowitz[TR]; they look ahead
05:15 schestowitz[TR]; and consider if they can swing (back) into profitability
05:15 schestowitz[TR]; else, shut down
05:15 schestowitz[TR]; the sooner, the less damage
05:15 schestowitz[TR]; except "PR"
05:15 schestowitz[TR]; they don't want to seem too cruel
05:15 schestowitz[TR]; now is a good time for companies to throw staff under the bus

07:18 schestowitz[TR]; go to lets encrypt forums
07:18 schestowitz[TR]; and you will find many people worse than you
07:18 schestowitz[TR]; they suggest blocking RT
07:18 schestowitz[TR]; by revoking certs
07:18 schestowitz[TR]; while the browsers have not YET 100% blocked "bad" sites ("invalid" certs, based on pentagonistic CAs)
07:18 schestowitz[TR]; my isp blocks RT
07:19 schestowitz[TR]; iirc, it also blocks sputnik
07:19 schestowitz[TR]; because we live in a democracy
07:19 schestowitz[TR]; reading another nation's propaganda is not allowed

07:20 schestowitz[TR]; a democracy is a politcial system where people are permitted one way of thinking
07:20 schestowitz[TR]; yes, us isps seem not to have blocked it
07:20 schestowitz[TR]; i think it would be unconstitutional tbh
07:20 schestowitz[TR]; \search searx for russia letsencrypt
07:20 schestowitz[TR]; you will see what i mean
07:20 schestowitz[TR]; and sooner or later it'll happen
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; Alphabet Mozilla Firefox and Alphabet Gulag Chrome do not yet outright block for "invazlid" cert
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; there are workarounds
07:21 DaemonFC; Yeah, you click "Advanced" and then "Proceed Anyway".
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; but Gulag uses 'Linux' Foundation for sigstore
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; in the future, they might hope, you won't be able to even run "unauthoritised" binaries
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; because "security"
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; according to companies that work for NSA and FBI
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; The WW is shit

07:22 DaemonFC; I use a Mullvad server in the Netherlands.
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; WWW is the browser you access it with and the webserver s/w
07:22 DaemonFC; Ironic, many US news Web sites block themselves.
07:22 DaemonFC; But I can read RT.
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; the servers are few
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; compared to clients
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; so WWW is like 66% chrome
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; the chromeweb

07:26 schestowitz[TR]; I thought something earlier but forgot
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; but the problem will worsen
07:27 DaemonFC; RT is fine to read expecting propaganda.
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; all those nasty browsers
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; that will get tougher over time
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; unless people comply
07:27 DaemonFC; What's going on right now is that the West is just confirming that the citizens are NOT FREE.
07:27 DaemonFC; See, look, they have to resort to blocking Web sites.
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; free to spend
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; IF they have money
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; IF they have income
07:27 DaemonFC; Why would they block so many if we're free?
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; IF it's not from "bad country"
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; go to letsencrypt
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; see the forums
07:28 DaemonFC; Browser extensions to sort of stick your finger in all of the problem sites and shunt them to some proxy is not a long term solution.
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; at the end they decided not to sound the alarm
07:28 DaemonFC; I mean, first it was ad blockers.
07:28 DaemonFC; Then you had to use a VPN.
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; by doing politically-motivated mass revocation
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; "revoked for beign Russian"
07:28 DaemonFC; Now you need to stuff Brave with extensions and settings to get rid of GULAGWEB and Conde Nasty.
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; "send us photo of your passport to process an appeal"
07:29 DaemonFC; Blocking people from reading things is not something a Free country does.
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; see FL
07:29 DaemonFC; So doing it is evidence. They admit it's not a Free country.

07:37 schestowitz[TR]; with "long haul"
07:37 schestowitz[TR]; china is not stupoid

07:37 schestowitz[TR]; and now meeting with Putler
07:37 schestowitz[TR]; maybe Lavrov told them to devalue the USD a bit
07:37 schestowitz[TR]; to prove Putler "right"
07:37 DaemonFC; Well, a couple hundred billion rushing back in isn't going to topple us.
07:37 schestowitz[TR]; i think in 2023 china needs the US less than the US needs china
07:38 schestowitz[TR]; the us cannot just send production to india overnight
07:38 schestowitz[TR]; china has lots of fine instruments
07:38 schestowitz[TR]; inc. from germany
07:38 DaemonFC; It's been a process.
07:38 schestowitz[TR]; they have a close industrial relationship
07:38 DaemonFC; I mean, not many Chinese car tires in the US market right now.
07:38 DaemonFC; China isn't thrilled that the US is pulling all of these orders and going to other countries with them.
07:39 DaemonFC; And they'll be facing riots with unemployment soon if they don't give the public something to tide them over.
07:39 DaemonFC; So "consumption voucher".
07:39 DaemonFC; We do have the ability to fuck them up pretty good.
07:39 DaemonFC; It's called "You're not the only show in town, Jack.".
07:40 DaemonFC; Eventually they'll blow through their foreign reserves and then what happens to them? They've spent so many years trying to cheapen their currency that suddenly their drawdowns leave them with a currency that's too expensive to export things anyway.
07:40 DaemonFC; And then all they get as their reward is a gigantic recession.
07:41 DaemonFC; And when the US and China are both trying to go at each other, it won't be good for the rest of the world, because their economies will destabilize further.
07:41 DaemonFC; The Euro isn't gaining from this.
07:42 DaemonFC; This most directly compares to the era of protectionism in the 1930s.
07:42 DaemonFC; Not quite, but it's moving back in that direction in some ways.
07:42 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], They can't be that smart, Roy.

14:16 schestowitz[TR]; we were alreadyOFF it

15:20 schestowitz[TR]; code and company docs can be done in gemtext
15:20 schestowitz[TR]; in internet/behind firewall
15:20 schestowitz[TR]; then accessed easily
15:20 schestowitz[TR]; and piped
15:20 schestowitz[TR]; for html manipulation or xml many libs exist
15:21 schestowitz[TR]; but debugging aan be harder
15:21 schestowitz[TR]; *can
15:22 psydroid2; I think a lot of things can be simplified or be done differently
15:22 schestowitz[TR]; not from scratch
15:22 schestowitz[TR]; not back to basics
15:22 schestowitz[TR]; now we have systemd
15:22 schestowitz[TR]; i didn't check the code
15:22 schestowitz[TR]; but there is far more code
15:22 schestowitz[TR]; and it is not mature
15:23 schestowitz[TR]; i can imagine wayland is the same
15:23 schestowitz[TR]; but it uses more "modern" stacks
15:23 psydroid2; that depends on whether you are full in on that mode of development or not
15:23 schestowitz[TR]; like programming standards
15:23 schestowitz[TR]; that does not mean more robusy
15:23 psydroid2; but that's the way the world has been going
15:23 schestowitz[TR]; some lisp and cobol programs still power accounting
15:23 schestowitz[TR]; because the code is very mature
15:23 psydroid2; and it's become hard or even impossible to back away from it
15:24 psydroid2; not even universities teach that kind of thing anymore
15:24 schestowitz[TR]; right
15:24 psydroid2; seeing how they are overrun by industry
15:24 schestowitz[TR]; they call it retro
15:24 schestowitz[TR]; or niche
15:24 schestowitz[TR]; and ridicule it
15:24 schestowitz[TR]; "grebeard"
15:24 schestowitz[TR]; "neckbeards"

15:25 schestowitz[TR]; 256MB browser = GOOD
15:25 schestowitz[TR]; 256kg browser = LOL
15:25 schestowitz[TR]; *kB
15:25 schestowitz[TR]; you need 256,000,000+ bytes to render a page
15:26 schestowitz[TR]; 2 billion bits
15:26 psydroid2; I think we can go back to having great operating systems running within 1-2 GB of RAM
15:27 psydroid2; but that's not what the traditional computer industry will do or support
15:27 psydroid2; because it means lost revenue (opportunities)
15:27 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
15:27 schestowitz[TR]; interia towards money/slaes
15:27 schestowitz[TR]; and developer salaries in that tangent/trajectory too
15:27 schestowitz[TR]; "do you do Vue.js?"
15:28 schestowitz[TR]; "no, I do JS though"
15:28 schestowitz[TR]; I start at 1kB
15:28 schestowitz[TR]; not 1MB framework"

15:30 psydroid2; I'm doing JS at the moment, I never really did much with it before
15:30 psydroid2; learning it, I mean
15:30 schestowitz[TR]; it can be OK
15:30 schestowitz[TR]; but quickly overused
15:30 schestowitz[TR]; because "this" and "that" lib does "x" "y" "widget"
15:31 schestowitz[TR]; and then you lump in more and MOAR stuff
15:31 schestowitz[TR]; and then the punch is spiked
15:31 schestowitz[TR]; "Telemetry" and everything
15:31 psydroid2; I'm coming at this from C/C++/assembly, so I'm not really someone who can stand a lot of bloat
15:31 psydroid2; it's just going to be another tool in my toolkit
15:31 schestowitz[TR]; C/C++ needs to be deployed by the client end
15:31 schestowitz[TR]; otherwise you won't run it "casually"
15:31 schestowitz[TR]; except shit like webassembly
15:31 schestowitz[TR]; or other Gulag/Moz things
