<remiliascarlet> I don't doubt that they want to replace us with AI and robots, but it's guaranteed to fail. Simply because it puts nature itself out of balance, and life will end up getting wiped out to the point that even AI and robots won't be able to survive.

<dlcusa> SiFuh, I've decided the Sabertooth's issue can't be kernel-configured away, so now I need to debug the freezing. I need to implement https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.html then leran how to analyze the dumps obtained.

<remiliascarlet> SiFuh: I was told by some random left wing SJW/vegan that Asians are naturally vegetarians, and therefore can't eat red meat. Not realizing he's literally talking to a Japanese who's eating red meat only, and doing fine.
<remiliascarlet> Someone more normal also pointed out that Japan has outlawed the consumption of red meat for over 800 years due to Buddhist and Shintoist beliefs in reincarnation, and the ban only got lifted during the Meiji Restoration. Which is correct, except they forgot to add the fact that the average lifespan of Japanese people used to be around 20 to 30 years old when red meat was banned, it went up to
<remiliascarlet> 40 years when the ban got lifted, and after WWII when meat consumption went through the roof jumped up to a whopping 110 years.
<remiliascarlet> Speaking of vegans, why are communists so fucking dumb?
<lavaball> remiliascarlet, your currency is fucked?
<lavaball> can you confirm?

<lavaball> sifuh
<lavaball> you know tsg helmets?
<lavaball> i need one of those. says bmx, so i thought you might know.
<SiFuh> Yes, lavaball. The light-weight versions are used everywhere these days.
<SiFuh> If you are doing BMX racing then you need to find out if you need a full-faced helmet and goggles as each track and/or event has different rules
<SiFuh> dlcusa: Thanks for the link. I didn't know this technique is called counter steering. it is still leaning though. We learn this technique in the video when you do the riding lesson.
<SiFuh> remiliascarlet: Were they Asian? I bet not, so it is like a person who has never driven a vehicle before telling Michael Schumacher how to drive.
<lavaball> i'm just street gay, not a competiton homosexual.
<lavaball> i just need something pretty for my huge melon.
<lavaball> so the tsgs are good?
<SiFuh> Then the one in the photo is the one to use
<SiFuh> Yeah, quite common
<lavaball> thast's black. definitely not gay enough.
<SiFuh> They have them in pink
<lavaball> are you for realisies?
<lavaball> i want actually power pink!
<lavaball> maybe the last one.
<SiFuh> Do you have PRO-TECH there?
<SiFuh> PRO-TEC*
<lavaball> sure.
<lavaball> why?
<SiFuh> They are also quite common in Australia for BMX and Skateboarders
<lavaball> i just don't want to be upset after i buy it.
<lavaball> and of course the gayer the better.
<lavaball> bluegrass?
<lavaball> nice pink right there.
<lavaball> works great with my predator back pack.
<SiFuh> Bluegrass. Some good music
<SiFuh> I can't find a Powerpuff girls, pink TSG helmet
<lavaball> the ebay link. bluegrass, but great pink.
<lavaball> first link just looks bad.
<lavaball> classes with my back pack.
<lavaball> backpack.
<lavaball> oh, the second link clashes.
<lavaball> i think i'll go with this one.
<lavaball> though i'm wondering where i can get one of these velcrow name stickers.
<SiFuh> Heh
<remiliascarlet> lavaball: "your currency is fucked?" No?
<remiliascarlet> I still have electricity here.
<remiliascarlet> SiFuh: "Were they Asian?" I think you can already answer it by yourself. "I bet not," So there's your answer.
<SiFuh> remiliascarlet: Reminds me of those people who say "I know Thailand" then tell you some shit about Thailand. Then you say "Wow, you know a lot about Thailand. How long did you live there?" "Oh, I didn't live there. I went on holiday there for two weeks. I learned so much about Thailand and there culture"
<SiFuh> Shake my head and say "I lived there for years and years. I have been to every province. I can read write and speak Thai. I always traveled third class and hung out with the locals"
<remiliascarlet> And let me guess, they still believe they know better, right?
<SiFuh> remiliascarlet: No, usually they get all excited and say things like wow, that is amazing, you are living my dream life.
<remiliascarlet> Back when I still had a JewTube channel, there was some obvious westerner pretending to be Japanese who kept stalking me for months and months about how offended he got because I allegedly said "Japanese people suck" (which I never did), called me a "racist", and he demanded an apology to all Japanese people. I just told him to go fuck himself.
<SiFuh> Hehe
<lavaball> remiliascarlet, heard yen is 34 year low.
<lavaball> i say no.
<lavaball> the borg must be stopped.
<lavaball> what is a substack?
<lavaball> i just heard the term on youtube.
<lavaball> must be some social media thing.
<SiFuh> lavaball: It's like a blog
<SiFuh> The owner of the blog sets it up so that people who wish to read their blogs would subscribe
<SiFuh> Although you can still most substack by saying no to subscribe and continue.
<SiFuh> It is becoming quite popular for Journalists and writers. For example. Harrisson Smith from The American Journal, will post a link to every story he brings up during the The American Journal so you can go and check sources and stuff. He also adds extra content he may have missed during his broadcast.
<lavaball> hm koay.
<lavaball> thank.
<lavaball> s
<lavaball> i'll allow it.
<SiFuh> lavaball: So you are going to ride an MTB or a BMX?
<SiFuh> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Lo6FNIb3dg <-- BMX in New York City/Manhattan
<lavaball> normal bike with gears.
<SiFuh> All bicycles have gears unless they are belt driven
<lavaball> i'm not an actual homosexual. i'm not doing this for fun. i need to get to town to buy shit.
<lavaball> that's all.
<SiFuh> RB Racing/Road Bikes. MTB MounTain Bikes, BMX Bicycle MotorCross
<SiFuh> lavaball: The day my wife says "I think I don't have enough fuel to get to the petrol station. If I don't make it, can you come and help me?" I said "Sure". What she didn't know was that I wanted to put the Jerry Can in my backpack and ride the BMX to the Petrol Station to get filled up at the pump. Unfortunately, I didn't get to because she made it to the station.
<SiFuh> Here helmets are not written into law for bicycles. They are recommended though. I don't wear one myself
<SiFuh> As for the colour. As a kid most wanted black or blue. But I saw many with yellow, pink, purple. No one cared. Some jokes made for fun but no one really cared at all.
<lavaball> i have a brand to uphold.
<SiFuh> In Australia when they made helmets compulsary. My parents refused to let me ride until I went out and bought one. I ignored them and the police. So my father went out and bought me a STACKHAT and he made sure it was the ugliest non-matching helmet he could find.
<lavaball> and since i'm no longer hitch hiking i need to pop out more.
<SiFuh> Ugly as, yellow STACKHAT
<SiFuh> I said my bike is white, and blue. They sell them in white. He said because I didn't do what they said, I must suffer the yellow.
<lavaball> whit blue yellow works.
<lavaball> white works with everything and blue and yellow are prime colors.
<lavaball> the bmw looks the less gay.
<lavaball> yet without gears i can't drive around here. this is hill country.
<SiFuh> I think BOL "Burst Out Laughing" would be heaps better as "Barfing Out Loud"
<farkuhar> I burst out laughing when I opened a bill from a dental clinic that I haven't patronized since 2014. They wasted an entire sheet of paper (plus postage and envelope) to tell me "Please pay this amount: 0.00"
<farkuhar> Somebody in their billing department needs to be fired, or at least trained to spot such easily-corrected mistakes.
<SiFuh> farkuhar: Send them a check for 0.00 dollars
<SiFuh> Or Cheque if you speak real English :-P
<farkuhar> SiFuh: just because they're okay with wasting paper and postage, doesn't mean I have to follow suit. A better idea: how about sending them a resume and cover letter, offering my services in the billing department?
<remiliascarlet> lavaball: "heard yen is 34 year low." Yes, and I profit heavily from it. Because I effectively make a lot more money off my European and American customers without having to increase the price at all, whereas prices here barely get any higher. It's only a pain if I occasionally need to buy something from overseas though.
<SiFuh> remiliascarlet: Maybe all the mainstream distros have the same agenda?
<lavaball> SiFuh, you the faggot in the car?
<SiFuh> I am the dude in the car lavaball
<lavaball> why is the asian girl driving?
<SiFuh> Steering wheel is on the right here
<SiFuh> I have asked her many times to drive and she keeps saying no.
<lavaball> you don't look all that gay actually.
<lavaball> more clueless.
<SiFuh> There was one look I gave because the guy was speaking Lala Mambu to me and I don't speak that
<lavaball> i don't know. i was hoping for a bigger mustache.
<SiFuh> And if you listen there is one guy speaking village Malay, then another guy is translating it into Malay, and then she is translating the Malay into English
<lavaball> you know, really gay.
<lavaball> how am i supposed to make fun of this?
<lavaball> there must be an easier way to get groceries though.
<lavaball> well, at least a gay headband.
<lavaball> so i guess you are just a honorary member of the unformal faggot association.
<SiFuh> I shortened it a few days back I went to KL and didn't want to look like Raul Castro with his brother Fidel's beard
<lavaball> HA!
<lavaball> i knew it.
<SiFuh> It's a bandana folded to look like a headband because in the jungle it is so hot. You want it to absorb as much as possible and still keep your head cold.
<SiFuh> I have one in black, two in cammo, a green Shemagh and a green Tagelmust
<lavaball> i know. you gays love your accessories.
<lavaball> you go, girl!
<SiFuh> Heh
<SiFuh> I also have a Ghillie suit
<lavaball> i'm struggling to afford a working bycicle.
<SiFuh> You have any ideas of what models?
<SiFuh> I really only know BMX.
<SiFuh> For other types of bikes, maybe farkuhar can assist
<SiFuh> There are a few bicycle riders in #crux
<SiFuh> The Downhill races are popular in South America. This one is in Medellin, Colombia. My python guy lives there
<SiFuh> farkuhar: ^
<lavaball> don't worry. i'll figure it out.
<SiFuh> I bought the BMX mostly so that when I drop the truck off to the mechanic for specialist stuff, I can take the BMX out the back and ride it to the pub which is about 12 KM away.
<SiFuh> Here I am surrounded in mechanics but many are not specialist mechanics like they have in KL or Johor Bharu
<farkuhar> SiFuh: your python guy? Is he a snake handler, or someone with expertise in the programming language?
<SiFuh> farkuhar: Programming language. But actually, I meant to direct your attention to the youtube video
<SiFuh> farkuhar: remiliascarlet: Took her fat lazy phone addicted useless soyboy nephew jungle. He liked the driving part because he has never seen anything like it before let alone been part of it. However, going to the jungle and swimming and eating a picnic dinner. He hated. All he cared about was his phone and there is no reception out there. I only bring the Satellite Phone. Emergency only.
<SiFuh> I gave him a swiss army pocket knife. Dude looked at it, played around with it a bit. Then put it back in the box, and put it next to the bag of food and walked away to look at his phone again. Kept asking "When are we going home"
<farkuhar> lavaball: I got the impression that you and SiFuh had met face-to-face. But I must have been mistaken, since you asked whether SiFuh was the "faggot in the car". The video resolution is good enough, you should have been able to answer that, if you had once met SiFuh in person.
<SiFuh> His mother asked "Did he swim?" "No, he did nothing but look at the phone and complain about wanting to go home" the mother replies "Good! He is going back out with you guys again"
<SiFuh> farkuhar: Never did, and he may have missed the previous photos and videos from Maran, Raub and Lepar
<farkuhar> SiFuh: remiliascarlet: somebody commented on the latest Poettering story with a link to Gentoo's (partial) list of ports that depend on systemd: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Hard_dependencies_on_systemd ... The analogous page on the CRUX wiki, ports that depend on linux-pam, does not yet exist, but it might be a useful exercise to write one.
<lavaball> farkuhar, he's a shape shifter.
<lavaball> you know how bruce lee says if water is in a cup it becomes the cup?
<lavaball> sifu is the opposite.
<lavaball> he's so gay that he takes the shape of whatever is inside him.
<SiFuh> The cup becomes water
<lavaball> so i can never tell if it's him or not.
<lavaball> talking about the gays.
<lavaball> did you know that they have to take preventive aids medicine forever?
<SiFuh> I am the only white guy, everyone else are Asians
<lavaball> too be honest, in the first video, the voice i heard, i thought it was so gay that it couldn't be you.
<SiFuh> Yes, but my friend has full blown aids and she has to take other medicine. During the fake pandemic she was told to get the injection. I told her sternly. "No vaccine is ever given to a person with AIDs. Don't you dare take anything" So she didn't
<lavaball> oh, that's female.
<lavaball> i was talking men gay.
<SiFuh> lavaball: There is a 14 year old in the back, it is her nephew
<lavaball> is he the voice in the background?
<SiFuh> Yes
<lavaball> tell him to man up then.
<SiFuh> Which video 1, 2, 3 or 4
<SiFuh> Let me check
<lavaball> the first i think.
<lavaball> yeah, pretty sure the first.
<SiFuh> Slow slow ah?
<lavaball> i think.
<SiFuh> That is Mr Kay. He is Malay
<lavaball> proba|bly gay.
<SiFuh> I never noticed that. They do sound gay. Hahaha
<SiFuh> No it is Malay accent
<lavaball> good thing you didn't get out of the car.
<SiFuh> HAHA
<SiFuh> Actually the scene I am talking, sounds gay too
<SiFuh> 1:12
<SiFuh> I don't actually sound like that. The phone recording the audio is fucked.
<SiFuh> Yeah, the video from her Tablet, my voice sounds deeper
<SiFuh> I didn't upload the "inside the car view" because gitlab doesn't like receiving 200 and 600 MB videos
<SiFuh> Also, if you look at the video where I am driving to the place before being winched up the bank. You can see many logs in the background. That is the bridge. So it gives you an idea how high we must winch and drive down.
<SiFuh> 0:51. If there were no fallen logs, you could drive under the bridge about two 4x4's high
<SiFuh> lavaball: The guy in the video you see holding the snatch strap as we go down the steep section is the Mechanic.
<lavaball> okay.
<SiFuh> He stood on the top of the bank holding the snatch strap. Each time the vehicles back wheels would bounce, he'd pull on the snatch strap to stop the trucks from flipping over on to the roof
<SiFuh> Basically like that.

<farkuhar> lavaball: the most recent conversation that misled me into thinking you and SiFuh had met, was when SiFuh proposed casting you as Doc Brown in a remake of some Back to the Future scenes. The way he described your appearance and mannerisms, I felt sure he couldn't have gotten all those details from a YouTube video.
<SiFuh> farkuhar: I saw him on youtube
<SiFuh> farkuhar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVtYseqV9oE <-- White shirt lavaball
<SiFuh> farkuhar: I love how they censor his shirt
<farkuhar> The last time this video came up, you used it to characterize Conan O'Brien as "lavaball's guy". A few hours ago you referred to somebody in Medellin as "your python guy", which immediately made me think "is SiFuh flying to Medellin to correct somebody's python errors?"
<SiFuh> farkuhar: You have a weird imagination dude
<SiFuh> farkuhar: Actually, I have notice a lot where someone will suggest something and you will think it is their opinion or their meaning, and so on.
<SiFuh> All good, but words are actually really important and should not be misinterpreted
<SiFuh> An example. "I like pork sometimes" and a few days later you mention "But you said you love pork"
<SiFuh> Back in a long time. Got lots of stuff to do
<farkuhar> Heh, we now have compilers that are smart enough to know which function the programmer meant (when the function name is overloaded), by type-checking and counting the arguments. Now we just need to get people writing English the same way, so that "X's guy" can be disambiguated in each context.
<farkuhar> "X's guy" = "the guy that X is a SuperFan of, to the extent that X would drive 6 hours to submit a list of corrections"
<farkuhar> "X's Y guy" = "the guy whom X would consult for questions about language Y"
<farkuhar> Alas, once you memorize how to unpack such phrases for a single native speaker like SiFuh, you have to start all over and learn a new dictionary for the next native speaker. It's like Perl: there's never just one canonical way to express an idea!
