01:02 DaemonFC; And now they're being shot trying to loot Ukrainian grocery stores trying to find food.
01:03 XRevan86; Isn't it amazing that just like Putin couldn't organise a country, he couldn't organise a war?
01:04 psydroid8; what was his goal with all of this?
01:06 XRevan86; psydroid8: Obviously he was too optimistic about his capabilities.
01:06 XRevan86; psydroid8: The goal is having Ukraine as a vassal state.
01:06 DaemonFC; They'll keep fighting until it's one guy left with a stick.
01:06 DaemonFC; And that's why Putin won't get that.
01:07 XRevan86; psydroid8: A one that would have no complaints about what Russia's doing, including the Crimean question.
01:07 DaemonFC; Putin's propaganda about how they would welcome the Russian invaders to "unify" them was at least as idiotic as George W. Bush's statement that Iraqi citizens would welcome American soldiers "with flowers, as liberators".
01:08 psydroid8; XRevan86, was this the final opportunity before fading into irrelevance?
01:08 DaemonFC; And then we got a bunch of IEDs. <---- Not flowers.
01:09 XRevan86; psydroid8: The status quo wasn't stable, he would've had to back off eventually.
01:09 DaemonFC; If the United States couldn't win against an insurgency of people who just didn't want us there who had relatively little to fight us with, what made Putin think he'd pull this off?
01:09 DaemonFC; The Russian military is obsolete and it has a lot of equipment that's in serious disrepair as well.
01:11 XRevan86; psydroid8: Evidently he decided that he can force Ukraine to give in with minimal damage.
01:11 DaemonFC; Fox News says there's scattered toys in some of the rubble.
01:11 DaemonFC; They'd better treat those as IEDs.
01:12 DaemonFC; The Russians would drop toys with small bombs in them to maim children with in Afghanistan.
01:12 DaemonFC; They'd run out to get the toys and the bomb would go off and take an arm, a leg, an eye.
01:12 DaemonFC; The Russians weren't trying to kill the kids, but to maim them. To create a burden for the parents.
01:12 XRevan86; psydroid8: I just sit in a flat and read public news and even I understand that this was not meant to happen.
01:13 XRevan86; While Putin, the great and powerful leader with secret intelligence, is thinking right now "how did this happen?".
01:14 DaemonFC; So the Russian military all deserves to die.
01:14 psydroid8; XRevan86, I appreciate the perspective from Russia (not necessarily on behalf of Russia)
01:14 DaemonFC; That they would operate in such ways, they all deserve death.
01:15 DaemonFC; So I hope Ukraine continues to kill many of them. They deserve to have bodies going back home so that, you know, maybe another 40 years will go by before they get more funny ideas.
01:16 DaemonFC; And it's very important for the ones responsible to be indicted at the International Criminal Court.
01:16 DaemonFC; Even if they never get arrested, it will make sure that if they leave Russia, they are in danger of being arrested and extradited as war criminals.
01:17 DaemonFC; It would make life harder for them because they don't actually care about their own country very much.
01:17 DaemonFC; They operate like Fulgencio Batista did in Cuba, that's how Putin operates.
01:18 DaemonFC; They whore the country out, take the money for themselves, and hide it in other countries.

01:18 psydroid8; seem*
01:19 DaemonFC; Batista was driven out of Cuba in the uprising and he never was able to come back home, but he lived out the rest of his life on stolen wealth in various places, including the US.
01:19 DaemonFC; And that's why Putin wanted his money spread all over the world.
01:19 DaemonFC; In case he was driven out of Russia.
01:19 XRevan86; psydroid8: One word: corruption. Or "Putin". Pick either, they're practically synonyms anyway.
01:20 DaemonFC; He may say he doesn't care about the banishments taking place right now, but he does.
01:20 DaemonFC; It limits his retirement options when the Russian people revolt and want to kill him and he has to leave.
01:21 XRevan86; psydroid8: Even the mannerisms the rulers use are repelling, that's just how bad things are.
01:21 XRevan86; psydroid8: They're supposed to be the best of us, but they're more like glorified gopniks.
01:22 psydroid8; XRevan86, why haven't we seen another revolution during the past few decades?
01:22 XRevan86; psydroid8: Effective discouragement.
01:25 XRevan86; psydroid8: Russia has lived through a very rough patch, but in the 2000s it got lucky, and that economical change coincided with a political change towards authoritarianism.
01:25 DaemonFC; "While Venezuela could not formally vote at the session because it has not paid its dues to the UN for several years, it almost assuredly would have voted against the resolution or abstained if given the chance."
01:25 DaemonFC; LOL
01:26 DaemonFC; Richard Stallman usually points at Latin American countries like this when he wants to copy some policy that drove them to eat zoo animals cooked over a trash can fire.
01:26 psydroid8; I've just found some documentary series about the history of Russia, which I'll try to watch over the next few days
01:26 XRevan86; psydroid8: And for some unfortunate reason that got cemented into the minds of the people that this is how things should be to avoid more hardship, a xarte blanche.
01:26 XRevan86; * carte
01:27 DaemonFC; Ukraine drove out Yanukovich, who had been using stolen public wealth to amuse himself with things like a private zoo.
01:27 DaemonFC; One of the things that happened after he fled to Russia was that the zoo animals got out and were frolicking all over the streets of Kyiv.
01:27 MinceR; 03 021840 < psydroid8> I'm more interested in the reasons why Russia can't develop itself as other countries in the vicinity seen to be doing
01:27 MinceR; the reason is called "United Russia"
01:28 XRevan86; And slowly but surely all that economical luck faded away and just started reverting to the shit times, but just not quickly enough.
01:29 XRevan86; So basically Russia had a moment of prosperity, and all that wealth was used to make the country less bearable to live in.
01:30 XRevan86; At least Turkmenistan has a marble city.
01:30 MinceR; lol @ venevuvuzela
01:30 psydroid8; why was "United but Destroyed India" able to forge ahead where "United Russia" couldn't?
01:30 psydroid8; lol
01:31 MinceR; presumably the fundies have only recently taken over india so they didn't have enough time to destroy their country yet
01:31 XRevan86; And at least part of that wealth is now confiscated by the foreign powers.
01:33 XRevan86; psydroid8: I could approach this from another angle: the Russian people haven't learnt the lesson that they have to defend themselves against the leadership. To say no to power.
01:34 psydroid8; if only a fraction of that wealth had been reinvested in local industry Russia's economy would have been much more diversified by now
01:34 XRevan86; And they kind of learnt the opposite when the union collapsed, that going against leadership will bring dark times.
01:34 psydroid8; although that may be overly simplistic from my side
01:35 MinceR; i don't think any people have learned that lesson
01:35 XRevan86; psydroid8: Russia absolutely had a chance to become a very powerful country, but it instead decided to become a banana republic.

01:38 MinceR; right, that might be true

01:40 MinceR; well, greater damage can be done that makes it irrelevant
01:40 XRevan86; psydroid8: Literally none.
01:41 XRevan86; Russia lost its chance and it will never become as prosperous as it could've been without Putin.

01:56 psydroid8; XRevan86, I think this is what many people don't seem to get about Russia. Economic and cultural superiority doesn't seem to be enough, it must be the glorious "Russian Empire". Plesse correct me if I'm wrong.
01:56 DaemonFC; It seems to be working great. It's managed to do more damage to Russian GDP in a week than what happened to America in the worst year of the Great Depression.
01:57 DaemonFC; MinceR, ^
01:57 MinceR; they may not want to call it an "empire"
01:57 psydroid8; Please*
01:57 MinceR; they used to make a lot of noise about "imperialists" in an era putler has lots of nostalgia for
01:57 XRevan86; psydroid8: I don't think it's even that. I could be wrong, but my understanding is that this is how Russia is doing foreign affairs.
01:58 XRevan86; psydroid8: The thing to keep in mind here is that unlike European countries, Russia likes to collaborate in secret in a pretty corrupt way.
01:58 DaemonFC; Even before Putin got them on everyone's shitlist, the Russian economy was about 20% smaller than Italy's.
01:59 XRevan86; psydroid8: So look at Russia's internal affairs and project this approach to foreign affairs.

02:00 TR Bot; Russian ruble - Wikipedia
02:00 DaemonFC; They were angry that a piece of art was going to corrupt the children?
02:00 XRevan86; psydroid8: So we have a country that doesn't know how to strike a deal without having its partner as a hostage.
02:01 DaemonFC; And you have to blow the image up to even see it.
02:01 XRevan86; psydroid8: So naturally it's trying to make everyone into a hostage. Which is increasingly hard because they're actively trying to put countermeasures.
02:01 MinceR; christian fundamentalists like using children as an excuse for every policy
02:01 DaemonFC; "In 1998 the Russian ruble was redenominated ."
02:01 MinceR; for example, there's fideath's recent homoerotophobic law
02:02 DaemonFC; XRevan86, have fun when that happens again, I guess.
02:02 DaemonFC; Be sure to cash them in for New New Ruble before they expire.
02:02 DaemonFC; If you have anything left after the inflation and unemployment crises, I guess.
02:03 psydroid8; XRevan86, I suppose this has diverged from Ukraine's approach of openness and exploration of the world beyond the former Soviet republics
02:04 XRevan86; psydroid8: As an example, a former German chancellor is a prominent man in Gazprom.
02:04 XRevan86; Because Russia bribed him.
02:04 XRevan86; When European countries make agreements, Russia bribes politicians.
02:05 XRevan86; psydroid8: Well, I just gave an example of Russia exploring beyond the former union ;)
02:05 psydroid8; :D
02:06 psydroid8; what you're telling me makes me think of Pakistan
02:08 XRevan86; Fun begins when bribed politicians are outed and expelled. Russia spends billions but instead of success the ties with Russia are often severed. Pretty ironic.
02:09 XRevan86; Armenia is a weird one here.
02:10 XRevan86; They threw out the Kremlin-controlled government, but they're still under heavy Russian influence.
02:11 XRevan86; Usually it ends differently, with Russia getting yet another enemy on its border.
02:11 XRevan86; The most vicious enemies are former friends.
02:13 psydroid8; Because they realise being allied with or under the influence of Russia holds them back?
02:13 XRevan86; psydroid8: Corruption always holds one back.
02:13 XRevan86; So yea, "empire" is a bit of an exaggeration in my opinion :)
02:14 XRevan86; A bloc at best.
02:14 psydroid8; I read a few articles a few years ago saying that Kazakhstan wanted to become a highly developed country by 2050
02:15 XRevan86; Don't know about "highly" but they're doing all right.
02:16 XRevan86; Also depends on whether Tokayev will become an eternal president.
02:17 psydroid8; Russia can't do the same things to do the "same" all right?
02:17 XRevan86; Even with the protest crushing, the transfer of leadership away from Nazarbayev is ultimately a positive.
02:18 XRevan86; psydroid8: Nazarbayev partially let go of power, kind of (sic!) retired.
02:19 XRevan86; Putin is not going to do that. For one thing, because it didn't go well for Nazarbayev.
02:19 XRevan86; (the son of a bitch is still alive and has some power, but he still took a figurative beating)
02:21 psydroid8; I wonder if Astana is still called Nur-Sultan after him
02:22 XRevan86; It is.

03:52 DaemonFC; That's a valid concern, mostly because everything that the "world" will do about it has already been done because of Ukraine, so there's very little for Putin to lose at this point.
03:52 DaemonFC; There's only really one way to get their attention that we're not doing now. Hit their fossil fuels and no politician is going to touch that in the US because they don't want to be blamed for gas prices.
03:53 DaemonFC; Also, they've already shown that they have no plans to stop if Ukraine falls.
03:53 DaemonFC; Their own map showed invasion plans regarding Moldova.
03:54 DaemonFC; According to Wikipedia, Moldova has a military totaling....7,500 people and no Air Force or Navy.
03:54 DaemonFC; So why not?
03:55 DaemonFC; The inaction by European NATO states means that if Ukraine falls, then they'll effectively be stuck with millions of Ukrainian refugees forever.
03:55 DaemonFC; There won't be a country left to send them back to.
03:55 DaemonFC; I guess that's one way to get into the EU.
03:56 DaemonFC; MinceR, I was watching Star Trek: First Contact last month.
03:56 DaemonFC; "Jean-Luc, BLOW UP THE DAMNED SHIP!"
03:56 DaemonFC; Picard: "NO! NOOOOOOO!!!!!!"
03:57 DaemonFC; The irony is that had he blown it up in the first place, they would have been stranded there, yeah, but it would have stopped the Borg invasion in the 24th century.
03:58 DaemonFC; Of course, Enterprise "Regeneration" made no sense.
03:59 DaemonFC; There's never been anything else in the show displaying any ability of the Borg to live when their biological components die.
03:59 DaemonFC; So being frozen in the ice for 100 and some years should have killed them. Plus, there's no obvious way they could have crashed there.
04:00 DaemonFC; The Enterprise-E fired four Quantum Torpedoes at the Borg sphere in the movie and it quite clearly shows the entire thing being destroyed.
04:01 DaemonFC; It would be easier to just write off Enterprise as having not ever existed, because it was so badly written and directed.
04:01 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 21.06 k/sec., IPFS upstream 46.68 average k/sec., average swarm size 273.49
04:02 DaemonFC; And assume that the Borg were heading for Earth because the Enterprise-E crew didn't destroy the beacon they were trying to build fast enough.
04:02 DaemonFC; MinceR, Some episodes of Star Trek were so bad that I could have written them better.
04:02 DaemonFC; Actually, many of them are.
04:04 DaemonFC; I'd also argue that First Contact was definitely the best Trek movie and the rest were pretty so-so, except the motion picture, which I skipped entirely after I fell asleep.
04:04 DaemonFC; The Motion Picture reeks of 70s malaise.
04:04 DaemonFC; The entire story lags and it's just painful to watch.
04:06 DaemonFC; Now, TNG makes me laugh because I actually can't get enough of the Lwaxana Troi episodes. In some ways, she reminds me of my grandmother, if she was royalty or something.
04:07 DaemonFC; She comes in, everyone is gritting their teeth and waiting for her to leave and she has no manners whatsoever but is completely oblivious to it.

04:31 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I sent this to Richard Stallman.
04:31 DaemonFC; "Hi,
04:31 DaemonFC; The IRS is neither interested nor willing to catch wealthy tax cheats no matter how much money they have for audits, so giving them more auditing money would only increase the level of harassment they already commit against taxpayers with little or nothing.
04:31 DaemonFC; If you look at the IRS's own statistics, they spend enormous portions of their audit money attacking families who make $0-60,000 a year, and then don't bother with the rich, who will have plenty of attorneys, accountants, and usage of the 1998 "Taxpayer Bill of Rights".
04:31 DaemonFC; Everyone who is too poor to fight gets the audits because they're more likely to give up and sign a CP2000 letter and pay anything the IRS says that they owe.
04:31 DaemonFC; In fact, fully half the audits the IRS does these days are against poor people, mostly with children, who claim the Earned Income Credit. Which is despicable. Possibly also why they have a 36% approval rate. Worse than the TSA.
04:31 DaemonFC; At the least, they shouldn't get more audit money until there's also a bill that will force them to focus on "wealthy tax cheats", like they did before the "wealthy tax cheats" bought the Taxpayer Bill of Rights in 1998, which they use to dispute the audits.
04:32 DaemonFC; The IRS also admits that they're incompetent. In one case, I read an Inspector General's report that they could quit losing $60 million a year in revenue if they spent $400,000 once to upgrade the system causing the problem. Yet they haven't.
04:32 DaemonFC; Meanwhile, they've turned cryptocurrency reporting into a complete disaster, deliberately, to kneecap a threat to a system to store value which they can't hyperinflate to steal all of your meager savings.
04:32 DaemonFC; The IRS is an enemy of the American people and needs comprehensive reform."
04:34 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I just assume they're confusing the fuck out of everyone on cryptocurrency reporting requirements so everyone will be too afraid to use it.
04:34 DaemonFC; Then they can just steal, steal, steal.
04:34 DaemonFC; Like what activelow says they went through in East Germany.

04:45 DaemonFC; Then you have to come back and pay $15 to wash and dry an average week's worth of clothes.

11:40 TR Bot; Colgate launches $10 premium toothpaste | WGN-TV
11:40 DaemonFC; I commented:
11:40 DaemonFC; "Maybe Colgate should partner with Apple for 3 ounce tubes of toothpaste. They can call it airtoothpaste pro max ultra megatron $999 toothpaste. I mean why stop at $10? The potential is unlimited. Toothpaste, now with bluetooth (connection issues). Marketing bulls**t. They should totally work with Apple on this. Get Apple diversified so that when the tech bubble falls out from under them, they're in commodities too."
11:42 DaemonFC; The special ingredient in this crap is "hydrogen peroxide" which is already in every cheap toothpaste that's got "baking soda and peroxide". Jesus f**k people are stupid.
11:43 tr_guest|34; isnt that rocket fuel?
11:43 DaemonFC; Finally a toothpaste for people who flunked 9th grade chemistry.
11:43 DaemonFC; <tr_guest|34> isnt that rocket fuel?
11:44 DaemonFC; High Test Peroxide can be.
11:44 DaemonFC; Although liquid oxygen is better.
11:45 DaemonFC; The British government tried using HTP as a torpedo fuel and gave up because it caused them to lose the submarine that they test fired the torpedo from.
11:45 DaemonFC; It's much less predictable than other fuels.
11:46 tr_guest|34; premium toothpaste to go with premium toothbrush
11:46 DaemonFC; The Russians tried again and lost the Kursk.
11:47 tr_guest|34; so its torpedo fuel i knew its something like a rocket
11:48 DaemonFC; Well, I recall using peroxide in model rockets.
11:48 DaemonFC; But they sell solid rocket fuel for those which works much better
11:49 DaemonFC; Back when people weren't pussies, you just went down to the park and fired off a model rocket and nobody cared.

12:47 DaemonFC; Out of all the fucking retarded things on Stallman's blog, and evil things, like abortion... mjg59_ had to dig up "Maybe a 17 year old can consent to sex." to try to skewer him with? Really?
12:47 DaemonFC; I mean.... :/
12:47 DaemonFC; Of course he had to, because on most issues, they seem to be cut from the same cloth.
12:48 DaemonFC; There's nothing to criticize that can't come back to bite you later, because you're on public forums promoting most of the same things.
12:48 schestowitz-TR2; back to tech now
12:48 schestowitz-TR2; you are disrupting the channel
12:49 activelow; even in comparison to blowfish for example, the initialization vector is only 32bit, not some gigantic matrice of initialization data; meaning memory consumption is tiny
12:50 DaemonFC; Stallman should be an embarrassment on so many levels. Treason is a big one. An utter lack of respect for human rights.
12:50 DaemonFC; Going on RT after Russia invaded Ukraine and Georgia is much like Gates being on Epstein's jet.
12:50 activelow; i do not need any block-keying anymore either, to implement the non-primitive recursion against known-plaintext key-recovery
12:51 DaemonFC; I think it should be at roughly the same level of scandalous.
12:52 DaemonFC; Nobody should want to be seen on RT unless they want to be a pariah. Stallman seems happy in offending people deliberately because he's burrowed into places where it's hard to punish him for having odious viewpoints.
12:52 DaemonFC; Which is a luxury many people do not have.
12:52 DaemonFC; That's why most people really watch what they say.
12:52 bnchs; uhhh is this tech?
12:53 MinceR; this is Tech Gone Bad :>
12:53 DaemonFC; Stallman went on a Russian propaganda network to say watch out for Facebook. They log what you do!
12:54 activelow; the "problem" is: i cannot envision any mathematical approach anymore myself to recover the key from a known-plaintext crib
12:54 DaemonFC; Russia monitors XRevan86 and the only reason they wouldn't have hauled him off for what he says on here is if they don't consider him important.
12:54 bnchs; DaemonFC: so?
12:54 DaemonFC; If he picks up a sign asking Putin to leave Ukraine alone, he'll be in a jail cell with the other 8,000.
12:55 bnchs; i'm pretty sure stallman went on RT for an interview
12:55 DaemonFC; And Stallman thinks he can take cheap shots at America by going on Putin's propaganda village, RT, and spouting bullshit.
12:55 bnchs; and didn't give 2 shits about whatever channel it was
12:55 DaemonFC; He's been on there quite a lot.
12:55 bnchs; alex jones interviewed richard stallman once
12:56 DaemonFC; We have protests here in America all the time and they don't arrest anyone. I can't see why Russia wouldn't be the same way.
12:56 activelow; and this is the sensation, less than 150LoC suffice, too ECB mode is secure, according to my hypothesis; and this extremely simplifies the implementation of this algorithm wherever desired
12:56 DaemonFC; Protests don't change anything.
12:57 DaemonFC; You're not affecting the people you protest. At best, you'll snarl traffic in downtown.
12:57 bnchs; i know that RT brought richard on because of whatever he said
12:57 bnchs; but do you expect richard to kiss america's ass after all they done?
12:57 DaemonFC; Yeah, and Stallman appears on all this fringe propaganda media.
12:57 DaemonFC; And it discredits him just by being there.
12:58 DaemonFC; Like, these jokers are the only ones who will have him on?
12:58 DaemonFC; The next segment is Alex Jones talking about his herbal erection pills and the election being stolen from Trump.
12:58 DaemonFC; Why would you want to go on as a guest and draw viewers to these outlets?
12:59 bnchs; richard is willing to accept anyone to interview him
12:59 bnchs; because it means spreading the idea further
12:59 bnchs; nobody cares if alex jones talks about his not-yet-FDA-approved med store
12:59 DaemonFC; People should absolutely never go on Fox "News" if they have a point to make.
13:00 DaemonFC; They're even worse than RT and Alex Jones because at least those people let you talk.
13:00 DaemonFC; Bill Nye went on Fox News once and he got the same treatment on Hannity or whatever it was as anyone going on Fox ever gets.

17:33 schestowitz; In light of the Russian military invasion in our neighboring country of Ukraine, until further notice, we made the decision to halt all sales in Russia and Belarus.
17:33 schestowitz; Effective March 3rd, 2022, we suspend sales of all games distributed on the GOG platform on the territories of Russia and Belarus. While buying products on GOG is not possible, users from the affected territories can still log in to their accounts and keep access to purchased items.
17:33 bnchs__; (the protocol, not the company or software named after it)
17:33 schestowitz; The entire CD PROJEKT Group stands firm with the people of Ukraine. While we are not a political entity capable of directly influencing state matters, and dont aspire to be one, we do believe that commercial entities, when united, have the power to inspire global change in the hearts and minds of ordinary people. We know that players in Russia and Belarus, individuals who have nothing to do with the invasion of Ukraine, will be impacted by this
17:33 schestowitz; decision, but with this action we wish to further galvanize the global community to speak about what is going on in the heart of Europe.

17:41 schestowitz-TR2; it is not a security thing
17:41 schestowitz-TR2; it's an addressing scheme
17:41 schestowitz-TR2; for content to be distributed
17:42 schestowitz-TR2; the issue they might have is illegal content in circulation
17:42 schestowitz-TR2; like terror videos, child pr0n etc.
17:42 __alias; I am not sure about my position on it really. Due to what happened with CoVID and them being in favor of the Internet of Bodies, I would be skeptical.
17:42 schestowitz-TR2; which is why I only push to ipfs and don't retrieve anything from it unless I know what the hashes are for
17:42 schestowitz-TR2; ipfs scales poorly anyway
17:42 schestowitz-TR2; it sucks when you have a large set of data
17:43 schestowitz-TR2; bandwidth hog, too
17:43 MinceR; what are the alternatives?
17:43 bnchs__; schestowitz-TR2, doesn't the peers ho have the data tell you what are the contents (including filename, cryptographic security hash, etc.)
17:43 schestowitz-TR2; there are other issues too, microsof hosting aside
17:43 schestowitz-TR2; and now some firms sell "Accelerators" for ipfs
17:43 schestowitz-TR2; because they see performance sucks
17:43 __alias; hmmm thank you for the input, looking for safe protocols we can use for wireless decentralisation
17:43 bnchs__; wdym accelerators
17:43 schestowitz-TR2; so they are upselling a 'fix'
17:43 bnchs__; is it like seedboxes for torrent
17:44 __alias; any one of them should work really
17:44 schestowitz-TR2; __alias: wireless decent is another issue altogether
17:44 schestowitz-TR2; this is not what ipfs tackled
17:44 schestowitz-TR2; manchester tried it 20 years ago
17:44 schestowitz-TR2; of course the cabal of ISPs and our lousy politicians would obstruct that
17:45 schestowitz-TR2; bnchs__: it is dht-based
17:45 schestowitz-TR2; so akin to torrents, with some enhancements
17:45 schestowitz-TR2; but the index is decentralised
17:45 schestowitz-TR2; which is good only in theory
17:46 schestowitz-TR2; as the index grows and then the dht traffic kills off all the capacity
17:46 schestowitz-TR2; you en up with 90% or more of the b/w being used for dht trash

20:26 schestowitz; URL?
20:26 bnchs__; wikipedia
20:26 schestowitz; sounds like they mix and match code
20:26 schestowitz; and maybe don't even follow licences
20:26 bnchs__; they first said that huawei used a micro-kernel, then they said that the OS supports multiple kernels and uses a Linux kernel "if the device has a large amount of RAM"
20:26 bnchs__; then they'll say that they don't even have a micro-kernel
20:27 schestowitz; and they they, as wikipedia maybe paraphrases "third-party open-source resources, including Linux, to accelerate the development"
20:27 schestowitz; What the heck does that even mean?
20:27 bnchs__; yes
20:27 schestowitz; this is why I'm all baffled
20:27 schestowitz; they said microkernel
20:27 schestowitz; so it could not be linux
20:27 schestowitz; then unix
20:27 bnchs__; that means that their OS is the equivulant of a GNU/Linux distribution

20:28 schestowitz; "comprehensive architecture"

21:10 DaemonFC; I'm not arguing that the IRS shouldn't get more money to audit suspicious returns, but that money should be earmarked to audit wealthy people who are actually likely to be productive audits (people making over $100,000 a year) or else they shouldn't get anything else.

21:11 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I'm suspicious of Biden's emergency request for Ukraine assistance.
21:11 DaemonFC; It includes more money for IRS audits, ostensibly targeting Russian oligarchs, so the IRS can investigate paper trails.

23:10 DaemonFC; "Prickwinkle and Lightpaw think that $500 a month for a year to about 0.1% of the families who are in poverty in Chicago is going to matter. Not only is it unfair to the people who do not get the $500 and have to pay taxes to prop up schemes like this while everyone should get a tax cut followed by drowning the government in a bathtub, but it only goes on for a year and then it stops.
23:10 DaemonFC; Also, with the cost of living and odds of being a crime victim in Chicago, if you gave me $500 a month and told me it was never going to end and all i had to do was live in Chicago I'd tell you "No thanks."."
