00:12 TR Bot; Microsoft approves new $60 billion share buyback program

00:12 IsambardPrince; Share buybacks are the most destructive thing a company can do to their actual value.

00:12 IsambardPrince; It's a signal that they can't find any good use for the money so they'll use it to prop up executive salaries at the expense of the company.

00:13 IsambardPrince; Loading up a company with debt is sort of forcing it to make a leveraged buyout of its own shares which are not really worth the price it pays for them. It makes the remaining shares more expensive, and increases bonuses tied to share price.

00:14 IsambardPrince; A similar example would be the US government having a hard time finding people to buy Treasuries, so it loads the central bank up on them.

00:14 IsambardPrince; Then technically there are buyers and the interest rate is lower.

00:15 IsambardPrince; But those Treasuries that are parked create, essentially, new money, for the government to spend into the economy, without any GDP growth other than possibly the economic activity that is directly caused by inflating the money supply.

00:15 IsambardPrince; And often by the time governments resort to this, their population is bankrupt and can't spend so it is not stimulative.

00:16 IsambardPrince; It just lets the government say the GDP isn't technically falling s badly as it is.

00:16 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR2], I'm starting to see a trend.

00:16 IsambardPrince; Apartments advertising themselves as "for seniors" and you can only apply to live there if you're at least "45".

00:17 IsambardPrince; The property management company figures....most people who live to be 45 are not still causing a lot of problems.

00:17 IsambardPrince; So they have less drugs and shootings.

00:17 IsambardPrince; The problem for everyone else is, it takes apartments and makes them inaccessible to people under 45 even if that person is not a fuck-up.

00:18 IsambardPrince; I've considered applying for an apartment and being turned down.

00:19 IsambardPrince; And then taking this to ICHR.

00:19 IsambardPrince; This is not a frivolous thing full of bullshit.

00:19 IsambardPrince; This is age discrimination and it's illegal if they discriminate against someone at least 40 years old.

00:30 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR2], They pulled my mom's unemployment case for an audit.

00:30 IsambardPrince; Which is fine.

00:30 IsambardPrince; They're just wasting their own time.

02:14 TR Bot; Secure Boot-neutering PKfail debacle is more prevalent than anyone knew | Ars Technica

02:14 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR2], "

02:14 IsambardPrince; I'm on level billing for my electric because we're not broke enough to get LIHEAP. They're so stingy with LIHEAP I kind of want to know who is getting it. Maybe some people on SSI or something.

02:14 IsambardPrince; Anyway, the damn electric company raised our bill 30%. They have this neat trick where they hardly ever raise the rate of electricity but your bill keeps getting bigger. They add lines to the bill for all these bill cramming mystery fees.

02:14 IsambardPrince; There's like 16 lines or something and it all adds to the bill depending on how much electricity you use, and it's not always clear what you're even being billed for. Sometimes they blame energy efficiency programs or carbon emissions reduction laws or something. They've been going around installing voltage optimization hardware in more substations, which can get the wasted electricity on the transmission line down by up to 17%,

02:14 IsambardPrince; which saves them more than it costs, but then they turn around and raise your goddamned electric bill again.

02:14 IsambardPrince; When we moved in here in 2020, our electric bill averaged about $61 a month and today it's averaging $83. That may not sound like a lot, but over the course of the year, that's another $264 for the same amount we used all along.

02:14 IsambardPrince; On top of this shit, we have to figure out where another $3,600 in rent increases is coming from. And another $2400 in grocery bills for the same amount of food. Not only that, but my car insurance rate has gone up. Not as horrific as some people's, but $200 more a year even though they say they're giving me more discounts than ever before!

02:14 IsambardPrince; Over the last 4 years, our fixed living expenses have gone up over $6500, while our take home income has stayed almost flat.

02:14 IsambardPrince; Part of the reason we've been okay is because interest rates are high, we have no debt, and we have enough bank savings to add maybe $150 a month in interest income, coming into the house. But the Fed is cutting rates now, which is good news for people with debt, bad news for us.

02:15 IsambardPrince; I seriously doubt that solar is ever going to be big enough to replace base load. It's not just generating energy, it's what do you run at night time, or on a cloudy day, or in winter. Where I live, it gets very dark in winter time, and the sun is usually down by 4 PM or so thanks to the government (daylight savings time). So those solar panels are obviously not operating at full where I am most of the time, and at night they aren't

02:15 IsambardPrince; generating anything at all. They claim that you can store the energy with grid scale batteries, but that is a cost.

02:15 IsambardPrince; The truth is that this is sort of a supplemental power source at best. Luckily daytime when they're working is when more electricity is being used, so they help replace peakers, which are the filthiest plants, but they are not base load.

02:15 IsambardPrince; Certainly nobody is helping us with our expenses. I joke that American Express is helping me more with the groceries than the government that taxes us and otherwise doesn't want to hear anything, and if we complain too loudly about things getting bad out there, maybe they'll send police to kill us. Sadly, the money coming to fund the credit card points is mostly from people who are struggling more than we are.

02:15 IsambardPrince; The landlords, insurance companies, banks, grocery stores, and the f-ing electric company amaze me in the same way "Jaws" amazed me. Like the guy said in the movie, it's a perfect killing machine. All it does is eat and eat and it does it voraciously and efficiently. Terrifying."

21:53 Sompi; apparently it was also a lie that BIOS doesn't have a mouse support

21:54 Sompi; I just wrote a mouse driver using only BIOS calls, and it should work with all computers that have a PS/2 mouse connector

21:54 Sompi; actually Windows 3.x also uses those same BIOS calls

21:54 Sompi; why are UEFI fanboys lying about literally everything

21:54 schestowitz[TR2]; they rename BIOS

21:54 schestowitz[TR2]; to extinguish the name

21:54 schestowitz[TR2]; and to confuse poeople

21:55 schestowitz[TR2]; with obtuse sh**

21:55 Sompi; BIOS int15,ah=C2 is the mouse interface of BIOS

21:55 MinceR; that would be because they can't justify UEFI without lies

21:55 schestowitz[TR2]; we are suing a UEFI liar

21:55 Sompi; it's amazing how many APIs and helper routines for operating systems can reside in one 64 kB ROM chip

21:55 MinceR; the lie about it not being called BIOS is also funny

21:56 MinceR; every single UEFI BIOS i've ever used calls itself a BIOS

21:56 Sompi; I started writing a mouse driver and it now works with PS/2 mice

21:56 schestowitz[TR2]; they try to 'own' both terms

21:56 schestowitz[TR2]; to control the narrative

21:56 Sompi; next thing is to make it also support serial mice (BIOS doesn't normally support them)

21:57 Sompi; often I feel that everything "new" in computing is just lies

21:58 Sompi; old stuff being obsoleted just for being old, and new stuff is actually often just a crippled version of the old

21:59 Sompi; new hardware isn't even that much more powerful anymore

21:59 Sompi; in fact often it's the opposite

21:59 Sompi; and computers become slower and slower because the software bloat is still growing but the CPUs aren't keeping up with it anymore

22:07 Sompi; and the new things almost never solve any problems, instead they create more of them

22:11 Sompi; the thing that annoys me the most about UEFI

22:11 Sompi; they claim that it solves some problems, but those problems actually never existed outside of Microsoft's propaganda

22:11 Sompi; instead it creates so many new problems that only exist because of UEFI

22:12 Sompi; and the lie that BIOS doesn't have mouse API is a very essential verse of that propaganda

22:13 Sompi; and the funny thing is that UEFI actually doesn't have such API so UEFI is again a downgrade

22:14 Sompi; and they never even said that UEFI would have that

22:14 Sompi; they just stated that BIOS doesn't have that and that's why UEFI is better

22:23 psydruid; I didn't even get any experience with UEFI until I bought my current laptop in 2016 after my first one in 2002

22:23 psydruid; my uncle bought and returned several laptops because he couldn't get any GNU/Linux distribution installed on them

22:28 Sompi; my experience of UEFI laptops is that most of them just don't boot anything properly, other than Windows

22:35 MinceR; my experience with UEFI laptops is that one of them nearly bricked itself because of poorly thought out, bug-ridden firmware code

22:35 MinceR; why handle errors in boot firmware if you can just hang?

22:36 MinceR; oh, and that neither rEFInd nor the other shiny UEFI boot menu would even run, but at least GRUB2 does
