00:30 DaemonFC; Almost everyone signing religious exemption forms just doesn't want to take it.
00:30 DaemonFC; And they know that they can use that as an excuse that's hard to disprove.
00:31 DaemonFC; It's so hard to disprove that the government barely tries.
00:31 DaemonFC; They just move on and force people who aren't willing to lie to take the vaccine.

00:33 DaemonFC; The door just opened straight up to a parking lot next to a major highway and I was always worried my cats would get out.

00:41 DaemonFC; The notion is that too much of either one is a bad thing.
00:41 DaemonFC; And for the most part, that is true.
00:42 DaemonFC; The courts are anti-democratic because they're a check on what the most recently elected government has done.

He, too, had been dealing with challenges finding available workers since long before the latest surge.

11:38 activelow; from a technical perspective, ARM has issues with compatibility/interoperability; x86/64 AMD/Wintel is worse
11:39 activelow; one symptom of this, i couldn't easily launch an aarch32 kernel from aarch64 u-boot;
11:39 activelow; at least, an aarch64 kernel easily supports an aarch32 userspace
11:39 activelow; another issue with ARM, often some firmware/uboot/kernel must specifically be tailored for a system
11:40 activelow; which is, what normally malicious/proprietary BIOS/EFI firmware circumvent with x86/64
11:41 activelow; nonetheless, x86/64 IBM Wintel PC is worse; they are only superior with hiding the problems behind shiny colorful facades

15:36 SomeH4x0r; I ended up not realizing what "programming" actually is, and of course I can't succeed learning something when I don't even understand what I'm learning

15:56 TR Bot; today's howtos | Tux Machines
16:04 activelow; just saying, a base-system package set with all c++ removed and compiled with legacy gcc-4.7 is almost finished
16:05 activelow; in preparation, to fully swap the system compiler from gcc to pcc or tinycc
16:05 activelow; although, there is at least one package which needs patching, because i do not want to remove this one: glib
16:06 activelow; and, another one would be gperf, because the entire GTK3 GUI realm depends on it, and gperf prevents replacing system compiler with something sane and efficient
16:07 activelow; so, initially, the base system will not contain any GTK (nor QT5), i'll have to merge this separately into a chroot initially
16:08 activelow; nonetheless. it is interesting too, to see where corporate interests attached into GNU/Linux, and where GNU itself locked out compiler alternatives
16:10 activelow; and anything which doesn't meet my minimum acceptance criteria, which is C99 compliance, will be merged into a separated/isolated chroot only, if at all
16:11 activelow; to keep the base-system clean with some crude but effective test: full removal of c++ compiler and compiling everything from source
16:12 *zleap (~zleap@user/zleap) has joined #techrights
16:12 activelow; i fear however, another downgrade is necessary, from gcc-4.7 to gcc-4.5, before i can try pcc or tinycc, because gcc-4.7 already contains some C11 features which a C99 only compiler would not have
16:17 activelow; CrystalMath: on the software-side this is one of the most concerning attacks, the compiler
16:18 activelow; although, i do not reject C11 or C++, i do reject those where they do not belong (critical base system components, such as kernel or compiler itself)
16:18 activelow; and too, it is again the compilers and particular versions which support C11 or specific C++, such as GCC written in c++ since v4.9, which was a mistake
16:20 activelow; for fun i patched linux kernel v5.10LTS to remove some C11 features, without necessity linux kernel locked into specific compilers (>gcc-4.9, or clang recently), yet tinycc or pcc are excluded

20:25 schestowitz; PCs coming out this year with Microsoft's integrated Pluton security chip won't be locked down to Windows 11, and users will have the option to turn off the feature completely as well as install, say, Linux as normal, we understand.
20:25 schestowitz; The first Windows 11 PCs with Pluton built-in were shown at CES earlier this month. Major PC chip houses think Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm are said to be embedding Pluton inside their just-launched or upcoming microprocessors.
20:25 schestowitz; Pluton can act as a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) or as a non-TPM security coprocessor. It's a way for Microsoft to specify exactly how it wants a TPM component to be present in microprocessors so that Windows 11 can use the hardware as a root-of-trust and secure its stuff.

20:25 schestowitz; The first PCs with Pluton chips and Windows 11 PCs were shown at CES earlier this month. Major PC chip makers, including Intel, AMD and Qualcomm are embedding the Pluton processor inside processors as a secure hardware layer to protect PCs.
20:25 schestowitz; But Microsoft's invasion at the hardware level has some users - especially in the open-source community - on high alert. The concern relates to the chip being a proprietary backdoor for Microsoft to take control of PCs and tying the hardware closely to Windows 11.
20:25 schestowitz; AMD integrated Microsoft's Pluton in Ryzen 6000 chips, which were introduced at CES earlier this month. AMD's goal is to bring better security to PCs, but users can disable Pluton.
20:25 schestowitz; "AMD respects user choice and, as is typical with many other security technologies, we provide the ability for a user to enable or disable Pluton based on their preferences in our reference BIOS," an AMD spokeswoman told The Register.

21:36 DaemonFC; schestowitz, "Remastered".
21:36 DaemonFC; Almost nobody appreciated Microsoft remastering Skyrim or Fallout 4.
21:36 DaemonFC; It just made it harder to install in Wine and broke mods for everyone, even on Windows.
21:37 *techrights_guest|4 has quit (Quit: Connection closed)
21:38 DaemonFC; Some of the mods change the gameplay mechanics a lot, or make the storyline more satisfying, or fix serious bugs that are still in the remaster, but are now impossible to fix with the mod.
21:38 psydroid4; it would be hilarious if modern Windows gaming completely tanked and was buried at the cemetery within 10 years
21:38 psydroid4; while all the older games got free software replacements that ran everywhere
21:38 DaemonFC; I didn't like the vanilla Skyrim for quite a number of reasons.
21:39 DaemonFC; Too many crashes. They should have made it possible to marry Serana from the Dawnguard expansion. They didn't give her enough lines.
21:39 DaemonFC; It's really weird that they did a quick and halfassed job on probably the most well received NPC in the game.
21:39 DaemonFC; But there are mods that fix those issues.
