[00:16:44] <FatPhil> lots of USB wifi dongles are extremely low quality, he says attempting to avoid using any swear words.
[00:28:42] * Runaway1956 wonders which are better, and which are best
[00:29:25] <Runaway1956> The dongles in my house were purchased years ago, well before Wireless N -
[00:29:45] <Runaway1956> if they ever were any good, they've probably just worn out
[00:30:07] <Runaway1956> friction from electrons, lol

[00:55:59] <systemd> ^ 03Utah tech executive resigns after anti-semitic email rant
[00:56:02] <SoyCow6863> HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
[00:56:15] <SoyCow6863> Too bad he resigned. He really hit the nail on the head with his reason why.
[00:56:47] <SoyCow6863> I'd better grab the popcorn, because we're gonna be seeing a lot of others like this in the near future.
[00:57:16] <Runaway1956> Boring - - - you could be some fun if you dumped on the English this week, the Russians next week, the French the week after, then the Chinese,

[09:36:55] <inz> FatPhil, out of curiosity, I plotted the magic points onto the graph WARNING: 10k x 10k image: https://inz.fi
[09:39:18] <kyonko2> i'll just use wget
[09:40:23] <kyonko2> your certificate is expired and not trusted
[09:40:42] <kyonko2> but of course, since this is your personal site, that means SUPER SECURE
[09:43:05] <FatPhil> well, that killed the browser!
[09:43:43] <boru> Trusting CAs is just as SUPER SECURE, as you would put it.
[09:43:54] <inz> kyonko2, "Expires on: February 21, 2022"
[09:44:19] <FatPhil> Are you disparaging Honest Akhmed?
[09:44:19] <inz> kyonko2, have you checked your clock :) (and have you updated your ca-certificates after the letsencrypt.org root CA change)
[09:45:29] <inz> FatPhil, that's why I tried to warn beforehand :)
[09:45:44] <FatPhil> I won't trust a site as secure until it's signed by John McAfee personally.
[09:45:44] <kyonko2> ssl warnings have always been a problem
[09:45:49] <kyonko2> now its just forced on you
[09:45:54] <kyonko2> WHACKED
[09:46:13] <inz> ssllabs test gave me a B, hmm
[09:46:16] <kyonko2> you don't have a choice to use regular old port 80 any more
[09:46:20] <boru> It's a broken model.
[09:47:33] <FatPhil> too many botox injections and breast augmentations
[09:48:02] <kyonko2> at least we know what botox is
[09:48:04] <kyonko2> seriously
[09:48:14] <kyonko2> thats the irony
[09:53:55] <FatPhil> I love the fact that the 'tox' is preserved in the name.
[09:54:21] <FatPhil> May as well start officially calling cigarettes "cancer sticks"
[09:55:17] <kyonko2> well, ethanol buzz is your body intoxicated
[09:55:39] <kyonko2> i take too many heart meds to ever drink again
[09:55:50] <FatPhil> everything's a poison, all that matters is dose
[09:55:57] <kyonko2> I see I see
[09:56:04] <kyonko2> even this new vaccine thing
[09:56:17] <kyonko2> i see a lot of similarity between covid vaccination and radiation
[09:56:52] <kyonko2> the testing, the proof, is so complex
[09:57:05] <kyonko2> but the united states loves to use dna to put people in jail lol
[10:01:21] <FatPhil> the thing I most like about the new vaccine thing is it makes it easy to identify the scientifically incompetent, and those who are prepared to tell barefaced lies.

[12:43:20] <FatPhil> what was the problem to which my washing machine playing a stupid little tune at the end is a solution?
[12:55:09] <inz> FatPhil, you weren't annoyed enough
[12:57:06] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - HPE Software Update Accidentally Wiped That 77TB of Data - https://sylnt.us - BIG-oops!
[13:00:03] <FatPhil> however, I'm happy that the direct drive motor is so damn quiet that you barely know it's doing a wash, even when at max spin.
[13:07:25] <inz> I've read from somewhere, that I could disable the also-quite-annoying-although-only-beeps-not-a-tune from our washing machine, but it was something like up up down down left right left right b a, and I've never succeeded
[13:08:33] <boru> Balancing the machine helps with vibrations as well i.e. good coupling with the floor. As for the beep, just desolder the speaker or cut the traces on the board.
[13:19:10] <FatPhil> the manual's in estonian, latvian, lithuanian, russian, belarusian, ukrainian, bulgarian, serbian, croatian, slovenian, and romanian, and from what I can understand from that lot, it's not even a manual for this precise model, and some of the killer moves are different on different variations, so basically I'm in the same state as you, inz.
[13:21:01] * FatPhil imagines the LED panel flashing "SPEAKER ERROR!" if I were to modify the h/w...
[13:21:54] <FatPhil> But my roomba plays a silly tune as well when it's complete. It seems to be the done thing in "user experience" nowadays.
[13:22:23] <FatPhil> I always thought that "no longer making a noise" was a good enough indicator of the "finished" state.
[13:29:29] <inz> FatPhil, seems that the starting points of the white lines in my graph are in the vicinity of a = b*b / 2n for all n in Z
[14:04:29] <FatPhil> can you put an emacs-alike on the server, so I can edit with my usual keypresses please?
[14:15:47] <inz> Sure thing
[14:16:47] <inz> done.
[14:22:20] <FatPhil> do you have a readable repo for it I can clone, so our trees can be coordinated?
[14:22:31] <FatPhil> 'it' being the code
[14:23:24] <inz> The https://git.inz.fi should be cloneable
[14:23:27] <systemd> ^ 03Log - sssms2 - Unnamed repository; edit this file 'description' to name the repository.
[14:24:08] <inz> Uh, it's broken, damn.
[14:24:39] <inz> You can clone /home/inzane/.git/sssms2/ now, I'll fix the http thingie
[14:27:16] <inz> Ok, now the http clone works too; was missing a package. Thanks for noticing :)

[15:30:48] <FatPhil> inz: removed another sqrt - see ~/dev/sssms2/sssms2.c . Only saves ~10%. I'll redo it when I come back from a concert later. I just need to change it from being the root below to the root above to save the +1, it's a trivial mod, but I really must run.
[15:31:33] <FatPhil> oh, wait, there's still some sanity check code enabled, times are meaningless
[15:31:44] <FatPhil> OK, I'll run in 5 minutes...

[15:33:34] <inz> great
