00:24 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], I bumped my property damage coverage on my car insurance up to $50,000 some time ago.
00:25 DaemonFC; It's like another $4 a year vs. $25,000, and cars have gotten so expensive and so easy to total that $50,000 is what $25,000 was 5-6 years ago.
00:26 DaemonFC; You run into someone's back bumper these days and it's not $600 worth of damage. There's sensors and cameras and so much shit in there that you could do $12,000 of damage to the piece of shit with the same accident that did $600-700 damage 10-15 years ago.
00:26 schestowitz[TR3]; brb, DaemonFC
00:27 schestowitz[TR3]; just recorded 5 videos in a row
00:27 schestowitz[TR3]; whiloe you highligted me with off-topic stuff
00:28 DaemonFC; Ahh. Sorry. GEICO is not a "fun" place to work. Their employees (anonymously) report now that everyone is trying to keep their head down and make everyone else look bad to the boss.
00:29 schestowitz[TR3]; here is a good topic
00:29 schestowitz[TR3]; microsoft windows revenue fell
00:29 DaemonFC; Over 1,000 layoffs. The management is outsourcing their jobs to some claims company that they decided to get together with other insurers to use, for "efficiency".
00:29 schestowitz[TR3]; but then aggain, seeing vista 11 share, it makes sense
00:29 schestowitz[TR3]; and not many x86 slaes
00:29 DaemonFC; 19% drop in PC sales this year. 15% drop in Windows revenue.
00:30 DaemonFC; Odd. Maybe they're increasing the price of a Windows license trying to SQUEEZE the OEMs for their remaining sales.
00:30 DaemonFC; Beggar thy neighbor?
00:32 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR3]> and not many x86 slaes
00:33 DaemonFC; If they were smarter, they'd quit dumping all this money into expensive Windows on ARM laptops that they're just going to have to clearance and support for 10 years anyway.
00:34 DaemonFC; That wouldn't help on x86 revenue, but it would stem some bleeding. Nobody wants Windows on a new platform. If you're going to lose x86 compatibility anyway, why Windows?
00:34 DaemonFC; It'll be Windows RT all over again where they ended up having to do cumulative security updates for 10 years on a custom version of Windows 8 even though nobody bought them except maybe off a clearance rack.
00:35 DaemonFC; It's certainly not "free" to them to have people on salary backporting security updates to Windows 8, which itself wasn't even supported on x86 for some of that!
00:39 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR3], As Windows grows fatter and demands an expensive new PC, Wine gets better every couple weeks at supporting new and old Windows software.
00:40 DaemonFC; I don't know how Windows is even at 60% desktop right now. I may still be slightly above 60%.
00:42 starstreak; microsoft shot themselves in the foot by not supporting older hardware
00:42 MinceR; they sell most PCs with Backdoors preinstalled
00:42 MinceR; most users can't install any OS
00:42 MinceR; plus there's UEFI and Restricted Boot
00:42 MinceR; plus the new shit that tripped up the local UEFI priest
00:43 starstreak; when I was working at a computer store I was upgrading core2duo systems to an SSD and Windows 10
00:44 starstreak; everyone with a windows 7 or 8 license gets a free upgrade to 10

01:10 resistor; no internet, no email, no irc, that's not practical for anything
01:11 resistor; and those systems too got strings attached, to things (Z80 sdcc compiler written in c++, Gigatron TTL Pluggy McPlugface with proprietary ATMel microcontroller)

01:16 resistor; two weeks have passed, still waiting for german railway to respond to my letter
01:17 resistor; they reported two severe outages of their railway signalling in 6month, and don't bother consulting with me still
01:19 resistor; yes, it was two outages, and i suspect both may have been related to problems with X.25 transport

01:21 resistor; german wikipedia says, german railway agency moved their old MAS90 x.25 network to a new one DBMAS (with tcp/ip involved)
01:22 resistor; nonetheless, x.25 is still there, nonetheless Telekom terminated x.25 support, although their headquarters are located close nearby in Bonn
01:22 resistor; it is important to keep record of all this, because i still got this contract with telekom headquarter, and had not received my salary for 17years
01:40 resistor; i still don't know, how x.25 was transported over distance by german railway and telekom
01:40 resistor; AX.25 is the amateur radio variant of this, with radio links and shared medium access
01:41 starstreak; resistor, i think you would be a prime candidate for anti psychotic medication
01:41 resistor; among railway, they used analog-radio for voice-call services, and abandoned this system in most areas, and too it's insufficient for compliance with ETCS
01:42 resistor; starstreak: i am drinking tea, assam and some green tea
01:42 resistor; anyway, the analog radio system in germany railway was still labeled Telefunken(!) (another defunct german company)
01:43 *DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving)
01:43 resistor; however i couldn't find any information anywhere, if railway railway analog radio carried X.25
01:44 resistor; year 2010 railway reported they had migrated to GSM-R, although reporting about this seems inconclusive, including the fact some mention it's not completed yet
01:45 resistor; and too power plants, including nuclear ones, had to connect with data services
01:47 resistor; with their analog-radio system, german railway too implemented some frequency hopping already
01:49 resistor; i think this is how they are doing it nowadays: GSM-R/SONET, on top of this with GPRS extension (instead of circuit-switching) they carry TCP/IP and on top of this X.25
01:50 resistor; and then there is all sorts of other things: MPLS/OSPF/IS-IS or however else they administer the telko backbone nowadays
01:50 resistor; Telekom moved to "ALL-IP", hence MPLS and similar seems likely
01:51 resistor; GSM-R is 2G still, which chances are may rely upon older ITU-T protocols in backbone
01:51 resistor; whatever they did
01:53 resistor; with ALL-IP, that's important too, i consider some older implementatios of TCP/IP and routing protcols somewhat different to what was innovated with IPv6
01:53 resistor; i won't touch this
01:54 resistor; and in this realm, you always got both: the ITU-T protocol domain, and the DoD side (RFCs), encapsulated and tunneled with each other

02:09 resistor; my sympathies with ITU-T/ETSI are limited, because of their obsession with MICROS~1 word and powerpoint

02:09 resistor; obviously they're not as braindead stupid in DoD as the ones among ITU-T and their MICROS~1 sponsors

02:12 DaemonFC; "New research published Wednesday in the CDCs Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report examined clinical case data for 57 patients hospitalized with monkeypox complications and found that 82% had an HIV infection."
02:12 DaemonFC; Most people trawling gay hookup apps will eventually get something. So it makes sense that a lot of them getting Monkeypox already have HIV.
02:13 DaemonFC; "Monkeypox and HIV have collided with tragic effects, said CDC Monkeypox Incident Commander Dr. Jonathan Mermin in a news release from the agency. Todays report reminds all of us that access to monkeypox and HIV prevention and treatment mattersfor peoples lives and for public health. In the report, 95% of the patients were male and most (68%) were Black."
02:13 DaemonFC; If they wore a condom, 98% of them wouldn't have had HIV in the first place.
02:14 DaemonFC; HIV medication (which ruins your bones and internal organs) is so profitable that they market it to hoebags who won't wear a condom and figure it's not a matter of if, but rather, when.

05:03 DaemonFC; starstreak, Welp, the left has a potentially big problem on their hands in Illinois.
05:03 DaemonFC; Pritzker has pissed so many people off that only about half the number of people in Chicago have early voted vs. this time in 2018.
05:03 DaemonFC; Even though turnout is surging downstate.
05:04 DaemonFC; I voted for Bailey and he may actually pull this off.
05:05 DaemonFC; If the trend in Chicago holds through Election Day, then the only county that Pritzker was expected to do overwhelmingly well in (and largest in the state) is not as much of a factor.
05:06 DaemonFC; It's possible they could all show up last minute or something, but it's interesting that they're not running down to the polls. Pritzker has been as uninspiring as most Democrats have been.
05:06 DaemonFC; He's raised our taxes. He's ruined the state's economy. He put millions of people out of work, about 200,000 of them haven't found a job since he did it to them.
05:06 DaemonFC; And now all they want to talk about is abortion.
05:07 DaemonFC; Which is not enough to motivate people for him, but IS enough to wake up Republican voters.
05:08 DaemonFC; The most likely people to be put out of work under Pritzker's "emergency" were poor working class black and latino service workers.
05:08 starstreak; nobody cares
05:08 starstreak; you're insane
05:08 DaemonFC; So I think it's obvious why his support, the enthusiasm, in Chicago, is just gone.
05:08 scientes; DaemonFC, tax revenue is irrelevent in the US
05:08 DaemonFC; At the state level it's not.
05:09 scientes; almost
05:09 DaemonFC; They can't print more money. They have to borrow or tax. Illinois has taxed us to fucking death already and it still borrows at interest rates that would make the Russians blush.
05:09 DaemonFC; This is all the fault of the Democrats.
05:10 scientes; DaemonFC, what is the interest rate on toilet paper?
05:10 DaemonFC; They've had unbroken unilateral control of the state government for almost 20 years now with the exception of 4 years of Rauner where Mike Madigan started overriding all of his vetoes anyway, including giving us a permanent 28% income tax hike.
05:11 DaemonFC; I think that people have finally had enough, maybe.
05:11 DaemonFC; The misery has just gotten to the point where they don't have the luxury of keeping this guy around anymore.
05:11 DaemonFC; I sure don't.
05:11 DaemonFC; I voted for Pritzker and now I'm voting for Bailey.
05:12 DaemonFC; He won't be a powerful governor because the legislature is gerrymandered.
05:12 DaemonFC; But maybe he can slow down theis tax and spend criminal-loving Democrat filth.
05:12 DaemonFC; *this
05:14 DaemonFC; DaemonFC, what is the interest rate on toilet paper?
05:14 DaemonFC; I'm not sure that I follow.
05:15 DaemonFC; The only nice thing about the SAFE-T Act is if I ever get pulled over for a traffic infraction again I can comfortably refuse to sign the ticket and the cop has absolutely no discretion to arrest. It's a non-detainable offense unless you commit at least a Class A Misdemeanor.
05:16 DaemonFC; I asked the cop what he planned to do if I refused to sign the traffic ticket. Like, was he going to arrest me.
05:16 DaemonFC; When he said, "No, I'm not going to arrest you. I'll just write refused and hand you a copy and you can be on your way." I refused to sign it.
05:17 DaemonFC; It turned out the judge couldn't do much of anything because the idiots that ran into me leading to the cops framing me for running a red light failed to appear and the cops didn't see anything happen, so that diqualified them as witnesses.
05:17 DaemonFC; So the state had to drop the charges.
05:17 DaemonFC; I told the judge and the prosecutor to have a nice day.
05:18 DaemonFC; Most lawyers advise you to just sign the ticket because the cops have the theoretical ability to arrest you and ruin your day if they feel like punishing you for being a smartass.
05:18 DaemonFC; But the SAFE-T Act takes that away from them.
05:19 DaemonFC; So I mean, like, you don't have to sign the ticket just to avoid arrest unless it's a Class A Misdemeanor. If it's an A Misdmeanor and they offer to give you a summons if you sign to promise to appear, I'd suggest doing that. Obviously read it, but....

05:20 DaemonFC; But A Misdemeanor is usually where they arrest and book you automagically.
05:20 DaemonFC; It rises to the seriousness where, they want to take you down there and sweat you a bit and see if they can get you to say something stupid that hurts you later.
05:21 DaemonFC; They still want to do that for B and C, usually, maybe not a C, but usually (depends on how busy they are). The SAFE-T Act just lets you take the summons and leave. Do it.
05:21 DaemonFC; And talk to nobody except your lawyer.
05:22 DaemonFC; I'm sure that we'll see plenty of people in Cook and Lake county that are dumb enough to fuck this up.
05:22 DaemonFC; Like punch the cop instead of take the summons, then it's a felony. :)
05:23 DaemonFC; Most people who get pinched for a misdemeanor are not smart enough to take the ticket, say nothing, and leave.
05:42 DaemonFC; "I saw a guy with a Ford Super Duty try to park it at an Indiana Walmart once when I lived there. After bashing it into the lamp post three times and doing an extreme amount of damage, he was still sitting there crying about it when I came out of the store 30 minutes later."
05:42 DaemonFC; Me on Reddit.
05:42 DaemonFC; The funne part was the guy wasn't even in reverse.
05:43 DaemonFC; He was pulling in forward, hit the post, backed up, sat there for a moment, and then pulled in again and sideswiped the car, also bashing out the rear driver-side window.
05:52 DaemonFC; "Sertraline was invented and developed by scientists at Pfizer and approved for medical use in the United States in 1991. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[15] It is available as a generic medication.[9] In 2016, sertraline was the most commonly prescribed psychiatric medication in the United States[16] and in 2020, it was the twelfth most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with over 38
05:52 DaemonFC; million prescriptions."
05:52 DaemonFC; 38 million Americans on Zoloft and that's just Zoloft.
05:52 DaemonFC; Someone's not happy.
05:53 DaemonFC; "67% of men on sertraline experienced ejaculation difficulties versus 18% before the treatment."
05:54 DaemonFC; "The FDA requires all antidepressants, including sertraline, to carry a boxed warning stating that antidepressants increase the risk of suicide in persons younger than 25 years. This warning is based on statistical analyses conducted by two independent groups of FDA experts that found a 100% increase of suicidal thoughts and behavior in children and adolescents, and a 50% increase in the 1824 age group."

06:28 phanes; any medication for depression is going to have those kinds of impacts because we don't understand the human brain very well. we know the chemicals and how some of them interact but don't have a holistic vision of it that's consistent between people. this is why you have to adapt and work through it. there's no magic intervention of the mind.

15:33 schestowitz[TR3]; <techrights-sec[2]> Not just data loss but financial loss since HTML mail in general and web mail
15:33 schestowitz[TR3]; <techrights-sec[2]> in particular make it not just feasible but easy to phish at the same time
15:33 schestowitz[TR3]; <techrights-sec[2]> it makes it all but impossible to avoid phishing other than by acting on
15:33 schestowitz[TR3]; <techrights-sec[2]> hunches or clues because all the real information is hidden. Beyond hiding,
15:33 schestowitz[TR3]; <techrights-sec[2]> your old friend javascript can be used to obfuscate the true destination

19:11 mjg59_; Industrial control systems: it varies a lot. Some is very well written embedded code. Some is a flash applet on Windows ME.
19:11 reptilian_thrills; how hard would you try to stop someone else from such a scheme? this too is nota trick question
19:12 reptilian_thrills; in other words, how much would you or your partner be offended if someone were to say...

19:12 mjg59_; I don't think it would be terribly effective at changing stallman's mind

19:13 reptilian_thrills; oh i dont think anything would change his mind
19:13 reptilian_thrills; however ill tell yotu he best argument i came up with anyway
19:13 reptilian_thrills; you partner may appreciate this
19:13 reptilian_thrills; let me quote what i said to him
19:14 reptilian_thrills; for brevitys sake this will be incomplete and only contain the most relevant parts. im thinking like two lines of it here.
19:14 reptilian_thrills; Requesting They/Them is a very common request. Do you actually decline if
19:14 reptilian_thrills; asked? Or do you only extend this courtesy (it appears you might be making
19:14 reptilian_thrills; a joke at their expense instead, which is a shame) if they actually have
19:14 reptilian_thrills; multiple personalities?
19:14 MinceR; i thought they/them was as general as it got
19:15 reptilian_thrills; Because I do know more people with more than one
19:15 reptilian_thrills; gender. I would hope that is enough to extend this courtesy.
19:15 reptilian_thrills; i thought they/them was as general as it got <- yeah but i think he prefers strong typing :)
19:15 MinceR; RMS?
19:15 reptilian_thrills; yeah
19:15 reptilian_thrills; It matters that much to people. Surely if they don't identify with the
19:15 reptilian_thrills; pronouns you suggest, we can help them? If you will for multiple
19:15 reptilian_thrills; personalities-- why not for multiple genders?
19:15 reptilian_thrills; i really think this is good: If you will for multiple personalities-- why not for multiple genders?
19:16 MinceR; i doubt it, and i'd hope he's aware of situations with lack of information
19:16 MinceR; they/them can apply to situations where i'm speaking about someone whose gender i do not know
19:16 reptilian_thrills; i'd hope he's aware of situations with lack of information <- i dont follow
19:16 MinceR; so i don't see how this could be insulting
19:16 reptilian_thrills; ah yes
19:16 reptilian_thrills; well the point isnt to insult him
19:16 reptilian_thrills; they/them isnt an insult
19:16 MinceR; also, afaik he's into lisp, which generally doesn't tend to enforce types of variables

20:53 schestowitz[TR3]; organic more so
20:53 schestowitz[TR3]; 25% off would still be a lot
20:53 DaemonFC; Yeah, but the organic is better quality.
20:53 schestowitz[TR3]; marrrginally
20:54 DaemonFC; You get the regular stuff in the yellow package and like, half of it is water.
20:54 DaemonFC; They use water to bulk it up and cheat you when you get to the cash register and scan it.
20:54 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR3], Ever thrown Organic chicken breast in the slow cooker vs. "regular" and come back to it in 4-5 hours?
20:55 DaemonFC; The "regular" recipe is swimming in "solution" and the Organic isn't.
20:55 phanes; yeah our food supply chains are fucked
20:55 phanes; capitalism all the way, but some things need to be more tightly controlled, like food pipelines, medical access, education access
20:56 DaemonFC; So it's sleight of hand. Most of the time the cheap stuff costs more because by the time you get to the real net weight of the chicken, it's not nearly what you paid for.

21:03 DaemonFC; This is 100% weapons grade bullshit, cooked up by the J.B. Pritzker campaign.
21:03 DaemonFC; Billionaire heir to a hotel fortune. Hasn't worked a day in his life.
21:03 DaemonFC; Routed federal COVID money to prop up his own hotel investments.
21:04 DaemonFC; Why isn't anyone talking about how as Governor he made sure that the illegal immigrants and homeless were staying in Hyatt hotels with federal COVID money and it was only after his hotels were fully booked that anyone else got money?
21:05 DaemonFC; He also wasn't taking care to be a good steward of that money. He was billing the federal program "market rates" for a Hyatt room. He wasn't lowering the nightly rate to the motel off the interstate to save taxpayers money.
21:06 DaemonFC; That's what being a politician in Illinois gets you. Put into a position to get bribes and route government (taxpayer) money to yourself.
21:06 DaemonFC; Then you complain when a farmer who grows food for the nation during a hyperinflationary crisis gets a pittance from the USDA that any farmer would.
21:07 DaemonFC; This behavior is disgusting and I can't for the life of me see why Bailey isn't doing something with this in his ads.
21:07 DaemonFC; Pritzker's ads have all gone negative. It's not upbeat at all. He knows nobody likes him and he's trying to scare people.
21:08 DaemonFC; It tries to paint Illinois as being a Klan state if Darren Bailey becomes the governor when nothing of the sort would happen.

23:24 DaemonFC; So today I filed a lawsuit against an insurance company.
23:24 DaemonFC; That'll be interesting.
23:24 DaemonFC; Can't go into more details than that though.
23:25 DaemonFC; BD-R disks are nice because I can get 25GB of data off my hard drive per disk
23:25 DaemonFC; I've been meaning to buy some.
23:25 starstreak; I got a disk binder full of TV shows, stuff i want to keep but i don't want taking up space on my hard drive
23:25 DaemonFC; I can burn clean Blu Ray Discs without any of that DRM shit on them.

23:26 DaemonFC; Even if you buy commercial discs, you don't get to keep the movies forever.
23:26 DaemonFC; Some variant of "laser rot" always sets in, and if you don't back it up to something without DRM, you're going to lose it, eventually.
23:27 DaemonFC; They've improved the disc materials and the machinery that burns the discs at the factory a lot since they had LaserDisc with the "laser rot" that set in roughly 5-6 years after you bought the discs (which were VERY expensive).
23:27 DaemonFC; But nothing lasts forever.
23:27 DaemonFC; Now you may get 30 years.
23:28 *horseface_ (~horseface@vihat8atwcj36.irc) has joined #techrights
23:29 DaemonFC; It's possible you could get more. I mean, I have plenty of CDs that were pressed in the 1980s that still play fine. No obvious errors on them. If I rip from them, they still match AccurateRIP, so they can't have deviated from the factory in a way that affects the readout, yet.
23:29 *horseface has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
23:29 DaemonFC; But they are very old.

23:29 DaemonFC; But when they do, it's too late.
23:30 DaemonFC; One of the things about CDs that is maddening is that they have built-in error "correction" which is more like concealment.
23:30 DaemonFC; Where it replaces a defect with comfort noise or something if it encounters and error that's not too awfully bad.
23:30 DaemonFC; So it "hides" the fact that the disc is getting "sick" and potentially on the way out.
23:31 DaemonFC; When they set up the standard, this behavior made sense. You weren't supposed to rip them and the DRM was simply the fact that nobody had that much storage anyway.
23:32 DaemonFC; If they had the technology they do today, and they were going to make something like a CD, it would have Blu-Ray style DRM on them, and it would be horrific.
23:34 DaemonFC; They try this anyway, by not giving you any physical media that you can use offline and a lossy file that you can't have, just you download it every single time you listen.
23:34 DaemonFC; And all of this while you pay for the bandwidth needed to do it and so it crapfloods the Internet and runs up your phone and Internet bills.
23:34 DaemonFC; They call it Spotify or Apple Music.
23:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR3], Spotify down 14% yesterday!
23:35 DaemonFC; LOL
23:35 DaemonFC; What a shitshow. Serves them and their investors right.
23:36 DaemonFC; Meta Platforms, Inc. (META)
23:36 DaemonFC; 97.94-31.88 (-24.56%)
23:36 DaemonFC; LOL
23:37 DaemonFC; Down 24.56% on one day! One DAY! (Fakebook)
23:37 DaemonFC; Die motherfucker, die!
23:38 DaemonFC; Stock price today is less than 25% of where they were on September 5th, 2021.
23:38 DaemonFC; And they act like this is fine and the company's not dying.
23:38 DaemonFC; It's going away fast.
23:39 DaemonFC; The only "Tech" that's up is Twitter because Elon Musk ran his big mouth off and now has to pay more than what it could ever possibly be worth. Possibly by a factor of 10.
23:41 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR3], Looks like "Social Control Media" is about dead.
23:41 schestowitz[TR3]; it's not doing well
23:41 DaemonFC; Advertisers themselves are going bankrupt.
23:42 DaemonFC; Companies aren't spending on ads as much. They certainly want to make every dollar count.
23:42 DaemonFC; Many Consumer Goods companies are dialing back the ad spend and putting out coupons instead.
23:42 schestowitz[TR3]; yes, wel... wait till Musk fired 75% of twitter workers
23:42 schestowitz[TR3]; buy corn

23:43 DaemonFC; It's an ad platform that has good consumer engagement.
23:43 schestowitz[TR3]; ibotta somee shares in a-facebopok
23:43 DaemonFC; People respond better to direct cash payments than they do to a TV ad or something.
23:43 schestowitz[TR3]; i-a lost-a alla ma monewy
23:44 DaemonFC; iBotta partnered directly with Walmart to offer rebates on Walmart's site through your Walmart account.

23:47 DaemonFC; Musk says he plans to fire most people at Twitter.
23:47 schestowitz[TR3]; most??

23:48 DaemonFC; The place is going to collapse into a total sewer.
23:48 schestowitz[TR3]; ok, you two say... alol the rest. FIRED
23:48 DaemonFC; No advertisers will want to touch it.
23:48 schestowitz[TR3]; How do you even run the company?
23:48 schestowitz[TR3]; surely those 25% don't know how to do ALL the tasks
23:48 schestowitz[TR3]; and the rest will flee fast in protest
23:48 schestowitz[TR3]; garden leave
23:48 schestowitz[TR3]; no knowledge transfer
23:48 DaemonFC; I thought maybe Musk gotta Musk.
23:48 DaemonFC; But then it occurred to me.

23:48 schestowitz[TR3]; and the company ntries to calm t hem do0wn
23:49 schestowitz[TR3]; untilk the transaction completes
23:49 DaemonFC; He was having trouble getting enough money to pay for the company at the inflated price he pledged.
23:49 schestowitz[TR3]; maybe there's a stutn up his sleeve
23:49 schestowitz[TR3]; saying he'd fire them all
23:49 schestowitz[TR3]; to cause mass resignation
23:49 DaemonFC; So maybe he's just broke and can't afford to actually run it once he gets it.
23:49 schestowitz[TR3]; and then say he's not buying
23:49 schestowitz[TR3]; it's not just him paying
23:49 schestowitz[TR3]; it's the saudis and larry ellison too
