00:07 DaemonFC; I guess what George Lucas is saying by changing the "Han Shot First" scene is that kids are dumb and wouldn't understand how being threatened that a gangster was going to murder you because you owed him money and he was fed up was provocation worthy of shooting first. Tatooine, specifically Mos Eisley Spaceport was described by Obi Wan Kenobi as "You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy in the entire galaxy.". Which we have
00:07 DaemonFC; to take to mean "This place is worse than Chicago.".
00:08 DaemonFC; One the SAFE-T Act goes into effect, the police won't be able to arrest people for misdemeanors anymore unless it's a Class A Misdemeanor.
00:08 DaemonFC; I suppose that ALSO means that they lose their discretion to arrest on petty offenses too, which means they won't even be able to arrest you, in theory, for refusing to sign a traffic ticket.
00:09 DaemonFC; Not that they usually do. Imagine trying to deal with the scum of Chicago on top of booking every asshole who won't sign a speeding ticket.
00:14 MinceR; it could be that Lucas is clueless about morality, as usual
00:15 MinceR; that's the whole basis of the setting, after all
00:15 MinceR; he's totally on board with the whole "being a concrete-headed rules-driven idiot is what makes you a good person" idiocy

17:22 DaemonFC; So they cops can't arrest someone for going 110 miles per hour anymore.

17:24 DaemonFC; Picketing a residence is a Class B Misdemeanor, so the Democrats have made it impossible for the police to arrest right-wing protesters for harassing an abortion doctor by picketing outside the doctor's house.
17:24 DaemonFC; Trespassing and Window Peaking are B Misdemeanors. Littering is a B Misdemeanor.
17:26 starstreak; DaemonFC, maybe not "illegal" but I could sue schestowitz[TR3] in Canada for your content
17:27 DaemonFC; The Democrats are passing laws, the Black Caucus is writing them, that makes it impossible to have any sort of peace or order in the State of Illinois. Even in theory.
17:27 DaemonFC; I don't care if you sue me in Canada.
17:27 DaemonFC; You can tell the Canadian judge to kiss my ass.
17:27 DaemonFC; Better yet, I'll write him personally.
17:28 starstreak; why punish Roy because you're white trash
17:28 DaemonFC; Canada is a fucking stupid place.
17:28 DaemonFC; Ran by a fucking stupid asshole.
17:28 DaemonFC; Also, fuck Canada and fuck their courts.
17:29 starstreak; DaemonFC, I also didn't say sue you, I said I could sue Roy. He is the network operator.

17:29 starstreak; hes also a transphobia apologist
17:30 starstreak; but again, im not gonna punish him over the nonsense spewed by some loser in indiana

17:38 DaemonFC; You know, ones that actually operate in this country, in the state in which I live, and all walked away with nothing, just taking on more losses trying to get the money.
17:39 DaemonFC; There's basically no way to get a court in my home state to give a fuck about a ruling in Canada that doesn't correspond with any law we have.
17:41 DaemonFC; If they did that, they'd be swamped with a bunch of foreign judgments from countries with no freedom of speech.
17:42 DaemonFC; Then what? If you insult the monarchy of Thailand, do they turn you over? Nope. I mean, foreign courts have extremely limited effect here.
17:42 DaemonFC; They can decide whatever they want, but they just don't matter in most cases.
17:43 DaemonFC; The United States has a federal law, in fact, that says if the International Criminal Court arrests an American and detains him, that the President is to order the US military to intervene and break them out.

17:52 DaemonFC; That should happen more often. There's 28 empty homes for every homeless person.
17:52 reptilian_thrills; <schestowitz[TR3]> crime is not free speech <- i guess people from dry states shouldnt talk about alcohol either then
17:52 DaemonFC; The cops in Chicago don't even enforce foreclosures anymore. It's too dangerous, they say.
17:52 DaemonFC; They don't have the manpower.
17:52 reptilian_thrills; and stallman DEFINITELY shouldnt have talked about... ALL KINDS OF THINGS

17:54 reptilian_thrills; i guess we shouldnt talk about downloading anything without permission
17:54 DaemonFC; Pretty simple.
17:55 reptilian_thrills; i mean, if crime isnt free speech
17:55 reptilian_thrills; then we shouldnt talk about aaron swartz
17:55 reptilian_thrills; or julian assange
17:55 starstreak; Roy just hates drug users
17:55 reptilian_thrills; and once against stallman should be banned for talking about how its better to

17:55 reptilian_thrills; Roy just hates drug users <- i think hes secretly mormon

17:56 DaemonFC; I voted for Darren Bailey.
17:56 starstreak; Roy is 100% transphobic
17:56 starstreak; for his "beardney" joke
17:56 reptilian_thrills; he will say no because there are trans people here
17:56 DaemonFC; One reason is to get this trans shit out of our public schools.
17:56 reptilian_thrills; im choosing to believe for now that "beardney" was an innocent fuckup
17:56 reptilian_thrills; as he claimed
17:56 reptilian_thrills; but!
17:56 starstreak; Roy is a DaemonFC apologist
17:57 reptilian_thrills; heres the thing
17:57 reptilian_thrills; if crime isnt free speech
17:57 DaemonFC; Government brainwashing centers.
17:57 reptilian_thrills; then he should be enforcing hate speech laws here.
17:57 starstreak; true
17:57 DaemonFC; But they can't do anything about parents who send their kids to good private schools like the ones Bailey has, and get them a real education.
17:57 reptilian_thrills; and that means no more dfc. personally i havent called for anyone to be banned.
17:57 DaemonFC; Instead of learning alternative history.
17:57 starstreak; daemonfc spews hate speech all the time and Roy is an apologist for it
17:57 reptilian_thrills; hate speech apologists, but no crime apologists
17:58 reptilian_thrills; even when hate speech is a crime
17:58 reptilian_thrills; personally i think crime is important sometimes
17:58 reptilian_thrills; when the law is wrong, crime is... freedom

17:58 starstreak; CrystalMath better change his name
17:59 reptilian_thrills; if we are honest and realistic, the only reason anyone was banned was trolling

17:59 reptilian_thrills; but he was unbanned
17:59 reptilian_thrills; i think its funny

18:02 DaemonFC; I mean, like these stuck up brats that go and throw soup and mashed potatoes at paintings because oil.
18:02 reptilian_thrills; dope is against the word of wisdom as set out by the prophet and founder of the church joseph smith
18:02 DaemonFC; Then you look at them and you can tell these people are fucked in the head.
18:02 reptilian_thrills; AND ITS ILLEGAL
18:02 starstreak; are you sure its not the Church of Richard Stallman?
18:02 DaemonFC; What's probably going on here is that the woman is actually crazy and the guy is trying to get pussy.
18:03 DaemonFC; So that's why they're really doing this.
18:03 reptilian_thrills; ^ "home taping is killing the record industry
18:03 reptilian_thrills; there is no church of richard stallman, there is only the church of emacs
18:03 starstreak; we must obey UK law here
18:03 reptilian_thrills; hes not like torvalds. he didnt call it "stallmanix"
18:03 starstreak; weed is legal in canada but not in the uk, so i can't even talk about weed
18:04 DaemonFC; It's legal in Illinois, but not at the federal level.
18:04 reptilian_thrills; i guess i cant talk about weed either, even though its legal here
18:04 reptilian_thrills; but if i have a prescription for it, i guess my doctor should be banned
18:04 DaemonFC; But the federal government can't enforce its laws against the state dispensary because there's another federal law that says they can't spend any money doing that.
18:04 reptilian_thrills; i mean, if roy wants to ban people for trolling, thats interesting, yes
18:04 DaemonFC; It's interesting, actually.
18:04 reptilian_thrills; trolling isnt free speech
18:04 reptilian_thrills; but CRIME?
18:04 starstreak; downloading pirate music is also legal in canada, but not in the UK
18:04 DaemonFC; Because federal gun control laws say you can't own a gun if you've ever smoked marijuana.
18:05 reptilian_thrills; /me sets ban on assange, swartz, stallman, and that guy from the eff
18:05 DaemonFC; And so how do you get a FOID card and a Medical Marijuana Card at the same time?
18:05 reptilian_thrills; i mean, its the double standard i think is funny
18:05 reptilian_thrills; the eff SHOULD HAVE banned gilmore by this standard
18:05 starstreak; crime isn't free speech lol

18:07 DaemonFC; Technically the Gun Control Act of 1968 disqualifies heavy smokers (cigarettes), coffee drinkers, and alcoholics from owning a gun too.
18:07 DaemonFC; As well as people who are addicted to, anything.
18:07 reptilian_thrills; i wonder if we can talk about people talking about getting banned for talking about drugs
18:07 starstreak; drugs are bad but transphobia is okay
18:07 reptilian_thrills; cancel culture is recursive and based on double standards, like i always say
18:08 CrystalMath; lol that's a lame troll
18:08 reptilian_thrills; i think, i do, that its possible to have standards... but theres a caveat or two
18:08 CrystalMath; what a liberal idiot... "voicing your opinion that disagrees with mainstream leftism is the same as selling drugs"
18:08 reptilian_thrills; first, most people have arbitrary standards. theyre not really GOOD standards.
18:08 reptilian_thrills; so allowing there to be some REASON applied is good
18:09 reptilian_thrills; a lot of these things are based on zero tolerance, and on whims
18:09 reptilian_thrills; and on justifications that are contrived
18:09 starstreak; CrystalMath, pretty much lol
18:09 reptilian_thrills; this is definitely the latter. i mean assange is definitely a criminal.
18:09 starstreak; im not surprised though
18:09 starstreak; UK is a really transphobic country
18:09 reptilian_thrills; technically we shouldnt even be TALKING about assange
18:09 DaemonFC; I know of people who smoke marijuana and have guns.
18:10 reptilian_thrills; UK is a really transphobic country <- roy probably blames mjg for that, after all, hes from there
18:10 DaemonFC; I'm not going to be the one to turn them in because they're not dangerous.
18:10 reptilian_thrills; roy isnt from the uk, but mjg is
18:10 reptilian_thrills; it wasnt transphobic until mjg was 20 years ago
18:10 DaemonFC; The law was designed to go after these folks who go driving around stoned with a gun in the car doing drive by shootings in Chicago.
18:10 reptilian_thrills; but hes in california now? so the uk should be okay
18:10 reptilian_thrills; (i dont think mjg is transphobic but its a running joke here)
18:11 schestowitz[TR3]; roy is 20
18:11 reptilian_thrills; 20?

It's a grotesque but probably inevitable outcome of the broken capitalist hell we have built for ourselves, and as with most things, the great likelihood is that it's going to get worse.
18:32 DaemonFC; BMW's subscription scheme is doubly egregious because owners aren't paying for something extra, but just the ability to switch on stuff that's already in their cars. But a Wired(opens in new tab) report reveals that savvy drivers are learning that they can bypass these systems. It's still going to cost money in most cases, but far less than what BMW chargesand, importantly, BMW doesn't get any of it."

18:37 DaemonFC; MinceR, GM made a mistake. I'm the Buick's third owner 15 years later and the heated seats trial never expired.
18:37 DaemonFC; I wonder who I should call about this. I wouldn't want to run afoul of the DMCA.
18:37 DaemonFC; It's in the shop today.
18:37 MinceR; sounds like i got a luxury that BMW owners can only dream of
18:37 MinceR; my car has heated seats that don't expire
18:37 *phobos (~phobos@freenode/user/phobos) has joined #techrights
18:38 MinceR; then again, my car also doesn't expire
18:38 DaemonFC; That fender they "rust repaired" bubbled right back up so they just offered to replace the damned thing with a new fender at their expense.
18:38 DaemonFC; I was actually kind of shocked how fast the fender bubbled up again.
18:38 reptilian_thrills; /me has never liked heated seats
18:38 reptilian_thrills; then again, theyre not on by default
18:38 DaemonFC; I don't think those fenders have very much metal in them though, honestly.
18:38 DaemonFC; I've held one, and they're not that heavy.
18:39 MinceR; i haven't tried mine yet, didn't need it
18:39 DaemonFC; They try to get the weight of the car down and then you end up with rust eating the fender alive.
18:39 reptilian_thrills; ofc if i lived somewhere that made the seats cold as ice
18:39 MinceR; well, rust gets the weight of the car down further
18:39 reptilian_thrills; id probably run the seat warmer at least initially
18:39 DaemonFC; Those really old cars had so much metal in them that when you saw rust on the fender, you had like several years before it would eat holes in the metal, and the fender wouldn't just break in half at some point.
18:39 DaemonFC; There'd still be metal around the hole.
18:39 reptilian_thrills; rust gets the weight of the car down further <- it does the opposite to the kernel though
18:40 MinceR; :>
18:40 reptilian_thrills; and the kernel is like the engine of a car

18:40 DaemonFC; MinceR, Mom actually laughed when I pointed to the Impala and she goes "How did that happen?".
18:41 DaemonFC; I said "I opened the door one day and part of the fender cracked and fell off.".
18:41 MinceR; "the front fell off"
18:41 DaemonFC; Well, it is over 20 years old, so....
18:41 DaemonFC; I mean, even if you wash the crap out of the car, it's still the midwest.
18:41 DaemonFC; They rot. They just rot slower.
18:42 reptilian_thrills; "the front fell off" <- /me imagines the car picking up the bumper and holding it over itself sheepishly

18:43 DaemonFC; They don't have engineers. What they have are people with blue hair who throw soup at paintings.

19:26 *reptilian_highs is now known as reptilian_thighs
19:27 DaemonFC; There's actually 4.5 MB of RDRAM in the N64, and 8.5 with the expansion. The extra half a MB is hidden from the CPU and used exclusively by the graphics chip for z buffering and antialiasing.
19:27 DaemonFC; It's interesting that they set that aside.
19:27 DaemonFC; It means if you're a developer and don't use those features, the RAM would just go to waste.
19:28 *reptilian_thighs has quit (connection closed)
19:29 DaemonFC; MinceR, According to this, the Rambus RAM actually made the boards cheaper.
19:29 DaemonFC; So Nintendo got fast RAM and cheaper boards (which canceled out the added cost of RDRAM).
19:29 MinceR; how?
19:30 DaemonFC; "The narrow bus makes board design easier and cheaper than the higher width data buses required for high bandwidth out of slower-clocked RAM types (such as VRAM or EDO DRAM); this way, the N64 mainboard could be designed with only 2 layers."
19:30 MinceR; i'm skeptical about PCB layers being _that_ expensive
19:31 MinceR; Rambus RAM made the pentium 4 so expensive it didn't sell all that well until they added support for SDRAM
19:31 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights

21:00 reptilian_thighs; of course i dont hide my bias
21:00 MinceR; why does she bother us with it, though?

21:03 MinceR; fanboying for MICROS~1 was possible even before they pretended to care about "open source"
21:04 MinceR; same with crApple
21:04 reptilian_thighs; yeah but
21:04 reptilian_thighs; fanboying for microsoft while pretending to give a shit about freedom is the point of open source
21:04 reptilian_thighs; s/microsoft/monopolies/ (mostly microsoft tho)
21:05 MinceR; ah
21:05 reptilian_thighs; the point is to invade free software and take it over

21:05 reptilian_thighs; fanboying for microsoft while pretending to give a shit about freedom is the point of open source <- and what gnu does now

21:06 reptilian_thighs; i welcome them to repel it-- no sign of this happening.
21:06 reptilian_thighs; i give gnu until 2029. thats generous.
21:06 MinceR; paying "freedom" lip service while doing everything they can against freedom
21:06 reptilian_thighs; the point was to take over gnu, not just linux
21:06 reptilian_thighs; they think gnu is part of linux anyway
21:07 reptilian_thighs; linux is a yoke for the gnu project. so is gnome.
21:07 reptilian_thighs; but regarding starstreak, and you dont have to, but this is what i think personally:
21:07 reptilian_thighs; 1. she has real feelings. shes not trolling about gnome/centos
21:07 reptilian_thighs; granted i think gnome is anti-freedom.
21:08 reptilian_thighs; she does troll YOU a little i think. its like roy and mjg when theyre fencing...
21:08 reptilian_thighs; (look up fencing)
21:08 reptilian_thighs; and you troll her right back
21:08 reptilian_thighs; fair enough
21:09 reptilian_thighs; 2. im not very tolerant of open source, i think its a coup. i think its THE coup
21:09 reptilian_thighs; but i think there are innocents. i was one, more than 10 years ago

21:10 reptilian_thighs; i dont think britney is innocent
21:10 reptilian_thighs; but shes close.
21:10 MinceR; "Nobody is perfect but I'm pretty fucking close"
21:10 reptilian_thighs; more to the point, i dont think most trolls are as close to understanding what real freedom is about
21:10 reptilian_thighs; and by trolls i mean open source people
21:10 reptilian_thighs; so with my obvious bias on the table, where it belongs
21:11 reptilian_thighs; cause i am TOTALLY biased here
21:11 reptilian_thighs; i really think theres a certain level of sincerity here thats not trollish
21:11 reptilian_thighs; people can call me a hypocrite for the exception, maybe i deserve it
21:12 reptilian_thighs; but its not a new point that some open source people are mostly innocent, or close
21:12 reptilian_thighs; ive said that for years
21:12 reptilian_thighs; britney happens to be an example of this imo
21:12 reptilian_thighs; if she wasnt, she and i wouldnt get along
21:12 reptilian_thighs; id be goddamned annoying (i am anyway, but we manage to get along mostly)
21:13 reptilian_thighs; but theres more than just bias
21:13 reptilian_thighs; when i was married, my wife used gnome 2
21:13 reptilian_thighs; i think gnome 3 is anti-freedom garbage. fuck gnome
21:13 reptilian_thighs; but i helped her install gnome 2. i thought it was okay.
21:13 reptilian_thighs; i still think mate is better than any gnome except 1
21:13 MinceR; i used to use gnome 2
21:13 MinceR; and eventually i got rid of it
21:14 reptilian_thighs; yeah
21:14 reptilian_thighs; but i didnt have a problem with my wife using gnome 2
21:14 reptilian_thighs; i thought gnome 2 was ok
21:15 reptilian_thighs; i think its bloated, but not like gnome 3 is
21:15 reptilian_thighs; i think it the last decent version of gnome
21:15 reptilian_thighs; more people care about gnome 2 than 1, AND it has gtk
21:15 reptilian_thighs; an alternative to gtk3 is a good thing imo
21:15 reptilian_thighs; its on github like everything else-- so id prefer a FORK of mate :)
21:16 reptilian_thighs; i give britney shit about gnome
21:16 reptilian_thighs; but to be fair, i try to give her less shit about it
21:16 reptilian_thighs; a little less
21:16 reptilian_thighs; and she gives me shit about it too-- but less
21:17 reptilian_thighs; im never going to think gnome 3+ is good, or that the project isnt anti-freedom
21:17 reptilian_thighs; but ive made that perfectly clear to her
21:17 reptilian_thighs; when she says shes going to use gnome, i dont think its a great thing
21:17 reptilian_thighs; but stallman never made a prohibition on runnning non-free software
21:18 reptilian_thighs; only on developing it
21:18 reptilian_thighs; its developing non-free sw that is unethical
21:18 reptilian_thighs; or immoral
21:18 reptilian_thighs; denying users freedom.
21:18 reptilian_thighs; running only free sw is more of a mitzvah
21:18 reptilian_thighs; a mark of sainthood, in a tongue-in-cheek church
21:19 reptilian_thighs; thats free software "purity" under true stallmanism
21:19 reptilian_thighs; its not fundamentalist, but what amount of being less free is good?
21:19 -tomaw/Wallops-Quick upgrade, ~1500 users will reconnect
21:19 reptilian_thighs; what amount of being denied source code or the right to share, study, change is GOOD?
21:19 reptilian_thighs; none imo
21:20 IPFS; () Planet Gemini updated. Latest complete date at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2022-10-23.gmi and so far today at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2022-10-24.gmi with 3-day aggregate at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/allinone.gmi
21:20 reptilian_thighs; what amount of taking over free software to give control to corporate monopolies is good?
21:20 reptilian_thighs; none imo
21:21 reptilian_thighs; but holding OTHER PEOPLE to higher standards that stallman would, as far as use (rather than development) goes, should only be done with care imo
21:21 reptilian_thighs; we dont need a "real ira" of free software
21:22 reptilian_thighs; but it would be nice if the free software movement stuck to its values.
21:22 reptilian_thighs; or still cared about those.
21:23 reptilian_thighs; gnu has abandoned that on the whole (not entirely, but they dont care about the chief gnuisance)
21:23 reptilian_thighs; the fsf, same
21:23 reptilian_thighs; its not a coup anymore, its an occupation
21:23 psydruid; wow, some person here can insult everyone else and believe that there will be some response at some point
21:24 reptilian_thighs; but i dont think britney is really on the side of the coup
21:24 reptilian_thighs; i think shes closer to an open source innocent
21:24 psydruid; starstreak the windows/apple/ibm shill
21:24 reptilian_thighs; with a smart mouth (that isnt going to change)
21:25 resistor; the unicode implementation with all of GNOME and GTK are problematic
21:25 reptilian_thighs; starstreak the windows/apple/ibm shill <- yeah, i could be wrong
21:25 reptilian_thighs; but i think if she was a shill id know.
21:25 reptilian_thighs; i note my bias
21:25 resistor; GTK1/2/3, no difference
21:25 reptilian_thighs; even with that, im going to defend her as non-shill
21:25 reptilian_thighs; she might shill a little bit sometimes.
21:25 reptilian_thighs; but i dont think calling her a shill is fair
21:25 reptilian_thighs; of course you can
21:25 psydruid; I wish I could put this person on ignore, but that isn't straightforward with this client
21:25 reptilian_thighs; it just might not be fair
21:26 resistor; if you're strict with acceptance criteria, there's almost nothing remaining anymore
21:27 resistor; if cause, GNU/FSF don't want to hear or admit this
21:27 resistor; of
21:27 psydruid; free software is dead
21:28 reptilian_thighs; britney is one of my favourite people, not just because shes cute
21:28 reptilian_thighs; shes a nice person
21:28 reptilian_thighs; shes not as much of a troll as you might think
21:28 reptilian_thighs; i could always be wrong
21:28 reptilian_thighs; <psydruid> free software is dead <- for now, yes
21:28 reptilian_thighs; i could always be wrong <- ive been wrong before
21:30 reptilian_thighs; i dont know if/when free software will come back
21:30 reptilian_thighs; i think (and hope) it has to eventually
21:30 reptilian_thighs; its not crazy to say "it will probably be years"
21:30 reptilian_thighs; its already been years.
21:30 reptilian_thighs; imo it was on its last legs in 2014.
21:30 reptilian_thighs; imo stallman already stepped down party as chief gnuisance in 2011
21:31 reptilian_thighs; not completely
21:31 reptilian_thighs; partly
21:31 reptilian_thighs; in 2011 stallman basically said
21:31 reptilian_thighs; any distro that follows the fsdg he wont compare them to each other in terms of freedom
21:32 reptilian_thighs; more damingly, he said he isnt qualified
21:32 reptilian_thighs; damingly
21:32 reptilian_thighs; fuck typing ;)
21:32 reptilian_thighs; its related to duck typing
21:32 reptilian_thighs; when did mincer start talking about systemd? 2011
21:32 reptilian_thighs; coincidence? perhaps
21:33 psydruid; I only found out about systemd in 2017
21:33 reptilian_thighs; if its a coincidence that stallman said dfsg = free enough the same year mincer started sounding the alarm, its pretty fucking unulcky anyway
21:33 reptilian_thighs; that was going to be the end of the fsf
21:33 MinceR; i missed RMS saying that
21:33 reptilian_thighs; but it was reversible
21:34 MinceR; even though it's totally in line with what he said about systemd
21:34 psydruid; when Debian 9 was the only major GNU/Linux distribution that would install and work on my new laptop
21:34 MinceR; at least DFSG has "free" in the name, unlike its copy called the OSD
21:34 MinceR; but still, it's a massive oversight on RMS' part
21:38 reptilian_thighs; it's a massive oversight <- it could absolutely be an oversight he reached on his own
21:38 reptilian_thighs; imo, its EQUALLY LIKELY he was nudged into thinking it was a good idea
21:38 reptilian_thighs; on completely hypothetical grounds
21:38 reptilian_thighs; or who knows
21:38 reptilian_thighs; whatever it was, i doubt we will ever find proof
21:38 reptilian_thighs; nor is it necessary to prove
21:39 reptilian_thighs; its more of a thought
21:39 reptilian_thighs; but i think in 2011 he set aside anything that would give him the ability to fight systemd
21:39 reptilian_thighs; and in 2014 it went into debian testing
21:39 reptilian_thighs; and today its taken over every fsf approved distro
21:39 reptilian_thighs; except hyperbola imo
21:41 reptilian_thighs; hyperbola is too slow and modest to be the last bastion of software freedom related to the fsf
21:41 reptilian_thighs; but theyre the last bastion of software freedom related to the fsf
21:41 reptilian_thighs; i have faith in them as a project, who knows if theyll ever succeed
21:44 reptilian_thighs; i imagine the fsf does more to hurt than help them
21:44 reptilian_thighs; hyperbola is slated to be the red-headed stepchild of the fsf
21:44 reptilian_thighs; i mean, they dont even use "linux"
21:45 reptilian_thighs; and by "linux" i mean linux, the kernel
21:50 reptilian_thighs; i try to pinpoint when exactly the fsf stopped being the fsf
21:50 resistor; systemd isn't as bad as the flawed unicode implementation of GTK1/2/3 and GNOME, because systemd still can be fully removed
21:50 reptilian_thighs; its a process
21:50 reptilian_thighs; so i try to find the most significant event
21:50 reptilian_thighs; there are now competing theories. i think all of them are worth exploring.
21:50 resistor; and it was still possible to remove systemd/dbus clutter from gtk2/3
21:51 reptilian_thighs; the stuff roy says about funding and grants is intriguing, i dont think its irrelevant
21:51 resistor; i gave up finally over the flawed unicode implementation
21:51 reptilian_thighs; thats worth consideration
21:51 reptilian_thighs; the 2011 point is the closest ive got to a date
21:51 reptilian_thighs; but when debian did systemd, 2014-2015
21:51 reptilian_thighs; this is when it started getting bad in an obvious way
21:52 resistor; well, i haven't got any GTK2/3 nor GNOME anymore due to this
21:52 reptilian_thighs; dec 2018 was when the coup really started
21:52 reptilian_thighs; sept 2019 was when the PUBLIC takeover began
21:52 EightBallz; https://gitea.com/heretic/torrents-csv-server
21:52 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights
21:52 reptilian_thighs; and there are many notable points since
21:52 reptilian_thighs; like the gnu.fools coup, which roy calls (fair enough) the ibm.fools coup
21:53 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techrights
21:53 reptilian_thighs; the letter was mostly debian people, gnome (not just foundation) and ibm featured prominently
21:53 reptilian_thighs; the people from the 2018 coup included neil mcgovern (gnome foundation president)
21:54 reptilian_thighs; theres no evidence you can separate the gnome foundation from the project in a meaningful way to make the project innocent
21:54 reptilian_thighs; all evidence points to gnome foundation and gnome itself both being part of the coup
21:54 reptilian_thighs; but in another world maybe you could do that
21:56 resistor; i almost finished GNU-toolchain removal already (it's only kernel and libc remaining to cope with, and that's a huge problem still)
21:57 resistor; and too i got plans for full remove of GNU-buildsystem
21:58 resistor; to avoid a misunderstanding, GPL licensing is OK for me, what GNU/FSF presented with their toolchain and buildsystem isn't anymore
21:58 reptilian_thighs; i blame gnome though
21:58 reptilian_thighs; i dont blame britney, gnome has worse people by far
21:58 EightBallz; whats wrong with gnome?
21:58 reptilian_thighs; its enough to say she likes gnome and i dont, and if necessary, why i dont.
21:59 resistor; EightBallz: technically? their unicode implementation, systemd/dbus, with gtk4 they entangled opengl, that's some of my complaints
21:59 resistor; the system-integration is troublesome too, although i don't bother with it anymore, i fully removed GTK (and X11 too)
22:00 EightBallz; resistor: you use wayland instead or don't use a gui?
22:00 reptilian_thighs; i think gnome is awful
22:00 resistor; EightBallz: none anymore at all
22:01 resistor; i am living on linux framebuffer nowadays, with yaft (for unicode and sixels) and dvtm for terminal multiplexing.
22:01 reptilian_thighs; but a mate fork would be nice
22:02 EightBallz; resistor: thats pretty hardcore, i don't think i could handle that myself
22:02 reptilian_thighs; it could be used to fork gtk apps that work with gtk2
22:02 resistor; EightBallz: it isn't, it has both advantages and disadvantages, and it is worth the effort too, regardless of problems GNOME/X11 have
22:03 resistor; too i removed GLib and all dependencies, and i must admit i am missing Midnight Commander
22:03 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights
22:04 resistor; meaning, even with terminal applications, i had to remove lots of things
22:04 resistor; recently, too i removed Vim, and replaced it with Vis editor
22:04 resistor; i too removed Perl and Python (not finished yet)
22:05 EightBallz; removing python seems like it would be tough
22:05 resistor; there is still some nasty interdependent build-time dependencies (GNU buildsystem and gentoo tooling remaining, which i intend to fully remove/replace too)
22:06 resistor; EightBallz: Perl is even more problematic because of GNU buildsystem (autotools)
22:06 resistor; bash is another one, it's still there, but i don't use that as my login shall anymore either
22:06 resistor; enough is enough, and i've had enough of the wrongdoing from GNU/FSF
22:07 resistor; Linux kernel is another blocker, to roll-back this one to something i could live with, currently i consider linux-2.4
22:07 reptilian_thighs; id be happy to see gtk die completely, but i dont think thats going to be soon
22:07 MinceR; plenty of hardware won't function with old Linux versions, some of them won't even boot
22:07 resistor; i am not at least thinking about updates anymore, i am worried to roll-back and succeed with this
22:07 reptilian_thighs; so a non-github mate would be nice, however plausible/implausible
22:08 reptilian_thighs; plenty of hardware won't function with old Linux versions <- you dont want old kernels anyway
22:08 reptilian_thighs; not when you can help it, which usually means "when not doing android"
22:08 MinceR; i don't remember what it was, but i ended up installing slackware64-current on my X270 instead of 14.2 because i didn't accept the level of functionality i got with the kernel in 14.2
22:09 MinceR; android still isn't doing mainline?
22:09 resistor; MinceR: yes
22:09 reptilian_thighs; i dont know, i ignore whatever theyre doing
22:09 reptilian_thighs; if someone tells me, maybe im more up to date
22:09 resistor; and linux-2.4 would vendor-lock me into x86 effectively, which i do not want
22:09 reptilian_thighs; but the point is
22:09 reptilian_thighs; a lot of android devices arent updated for very long
22:09 MinceR; i can't afford to ignore android
22:10 reptilian_thighs; theyre updated forcibly a few times then probably abandoned
22:10 resistor; good news with GNOME/GTK/mate is, this can be removed and linux booted with a terminal and shell and all required development tooling
22:10 reptilian_thighs; i can't afford to ignore android <- that sucks
22:10 reptilian_thighs; but understandable
22:10 MinceR; the state of free unixes and linux-based systems is even more desperate on mobile devices than on PCs
22:11 resistor; i had given up hope for mobile phone 15years ago already
22:11 resistor; i never used any
22:11 resistor; never, never will
22:11 MinceR; until last year, the only Internet access i had at my holiday house was via cellular network
22:11 reptilian_thighs; it always was
22:11 reptilian_thighs; mobile sucks
22:11 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techrights
22:11 reptilian_thighs; and even if we perfected it
22:11 reptilian_thighs; gsm can never be free
22:11 reptilian_thighs; imo we should say fuck it and just use wifi
22:11 reptilian_thighs; fuck gsm
22:11 reptilian_thighs; but
22:12 MinceR; there aren't open APs everywhere
22:12 reptilian_thighs; i know that will never make people happy
22:12 resistor; that's the next escalation phase, already considered it, fully disconnecting from "the internet"
22:12 reptilian_thighs; that too
22:12 resistor; whatever this is nowadays, internet, it's dysfunctional and GAFAM reject me using most of theirs, with netsurf/lynx/links/w3m
22:13 reptilian_thighs; gsm is bad thing mostly
22:13 reptilian_thighs; but for emergency calls...
22:13 resistor; GSM is ITU-T realm
22:13 reptilian_thighs; good luck, society
22:14 reptilian_thighs; we need free emergency services
22:14 resistor; and well, Telekom is heading for "ALL-IP", VoIP and similar, they already terminated old contracts for ISDN and POTS
22:14 reptilian_thighs; not to make the free software movement happy
22:14 resistor; difference being, POTS and ISDN phones worked even when a household was disconnected from the electricity grid
22:14 reptilian_thighs; but so you can call the emergency line and not have cops shooting at people that need an ambulance ffs
22:15 resistor; those old analog phones and ISDN phones were supplied with power from Telekom, and Telekom operated separate emergency power supply for their infrastructure, to keep communications even when electrical power was lost
22:15 MinceR; curious that they can't make POTS and ISDN work on top of "all-IP"
22:16 resistor; they can, but their "ALL-IP" _always_ requires electricity to supply the router with
22:16 resistor; at home
22:16 resistor; and the Telekom infrastructure had emergency power supply, to continue operation of the telekom backbone
22:17 MinceR; ISP-s generally don't seem to care about power supply, especially at the last mile
22:17 resistor; that's another reason why, German Railway was in trouble with their GSM-R, "ALL-IP" and whatnot they did
22:20 IPFS; () Planet Gemini updated. Latest complete date at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2022-10-23.gmi and so far today at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2022-10-24.gmi with 3-day aggregate at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/allinone.gmi
22:20 reptilian_thighs; pots they wont invest any money
22:20 reptilian_thighs; so that much is obvious
22:20 reptilian_thighs; i bet fibre is material-cost cheaper so
22:20 reptilian_thighs; maintaining pots from financial standpoint is probably crap
22:21 reptilian_thighs; of course MOVING to fibre is expensive
22:21 resistor; i had seen the old fully _analog_ backbone components in a museam, Deutsche Telekom University
22:21 reptilian_thighs; but compare to original cost of laying pots cable, its an investment
22:21 reptilian_thighs; you invest in cheaper lines, they pay for themslves more quickly
22:21 reptilian_thighs; even as an anticapitalist this much makes sense to me
22:22 resistor; this was abandoned more than 30years ago already, and SONET/ISDN/SS7 all digital (with both copper wiring and optical fibre) introduced
22:22 reptilian_thighs; though anticapitalists might have extra incentives to maintain pots idk
22:22 reptilian_thighs; and thats fine too
22:22 resistor; the real deal is X.25
22:22 reptilian_thighs; isdn is just
22:22 resistor; which they nowadays intend to carry over TCP/IP
22:22 reptilian_thighs; who even uses that. i havent heard of it being used in 15 years. granted people probably do
22:23 reptilian_thighs; but i cant imagine theyre doing themselves any favours, its just inertia. i could be totally wrong ofc
22:23 resistor; X.25 had remained, first transported over POTS (with those accoustic coupler modems and similar), then X.25 was carried over ISDN/SONET, nowadays X.25 is carried over TCP/IP
22:23 reptilian_thighs; the college i went to had isdn, it was great. fucking ages ago though
22:23 resistor; however, the Telekom backbone... that's a totally different beast nowadays
22:23 reptilian_thighs; i mean for the lab
22:24 resistor; ISDN transition to VoIP is a problem, yes, too VoLTE and similar are, because that's not "circtuit-switched" anymore
22:24 resistor; however, the real deal seems to be X.25
22:24 resistor; because...
22:24 resistor; anyway, i have not received a response from German Railway yet, after two weeks, when applying there...
22:25 resistor; Deutsche Telekom fully abandoned X.25, although it's still used in German Railway, that's the short version of it
22:26 resistor; and this year there was two severe railway-grid signalling outages, which they now say it was some "errornous wiring" somewhere, or recently "sabotage"
22:26 resistor; they didn't at least mention yet, Deutsche Telekom involved with this
22:27 resistor; to my understanding, German Railway moved their X.25 onto TCP/IP networking
22:28 resistor; can't confirm this yet myself, only what i was reading
22:28 resistor; and with the GSM-R outage, they only discussed the voice-call system of railway, not how this affected the X.25 grid
22:28 resistor; i suspect, nuclear plants and other electricity plants too are attatched to X.25 for signalling, interconnected into railway
22:29 resistor; obviously, railway requires electricity, and some signalling between power plants
22:29 resistor; in march 2022 they said, there was some error in wiring somewhere, which caused railway cargo outage
22:30 resistor; in october 2022 they said, someone had cabling as an act of sabotage... this "explanation" barely scratches the surface, of what happened
22:31 resistor; among railway, they discuss a "fallback concept" now... fallback to what?
22:32 resistor; Telekom terminated POTS,ISDN,X.25... and within their core-network (SONET/SDH) a similar trend exists to push "ALL-IP", SIGTRAN and similar
22:33 resistor; SONET/SDH already was a fully digital network (hence the name ISDN for the access line), which had replaced ANALOG POTS backbone 30years ago
22:33 resistor; maybe, abandoning the analog backbone was an error already, 30years ago; and nowadays the transition from SDH/SONET/SS7 to TCP/IP seems to FAIL
22:34 resistor; both, SDH/SONET/SS7 AND TCP/IP are problematic, and when transitioning one to another, that's twice the trouble this time, at least
22:36 resistor; among railway, they distinguish "analog railway radio" (which had to connect to any backbone, probably digital anyway) from "digital railway radio" (with GSM-R closing the gap of the last mile)
22:37 resistor; and whatever railway may wish to do, to carry X.25 (for signalling and messaging, not voice calls), this required any backbone

22:40 psydruid; gsm and gnome should have a suicide pact
