Narayanan asks me to call a Thai company for him because he can't speak Thai. I called the number and asked in Thai "Is there anyone there that can speak English?" The lady laughed and said "Yes". Another lady took the phone and I started talking to her in English. Narayanan's face was classic. He turns to the other guy and says "That's genius!"
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: ^
<farkuhar>
SiFuh: it looks like your reply was too subtle for uwumeowmeownyaa. If a monospace font is somehow supposed to make "CRUX GNU/Linux" the same length as "CRUX", imagine how much space savings we could achieve by printing the Mahabharata in a monospace font!
<SiFuh>
farkuhar: Hahaha
<SiFuh>
farkuhar: I found his response dissappointing
<farkuhar>
Well, uwumeowmeownyaa was lucky to even get a reply. Meanwhile brian|lfs asked in earnest about the memory required to build webkitgtk, and nobody bothered to address his concerns.
<ukky>
I wanted to answer 'because your CPU has more than 32 cores', but restrained
<farkuhar>
It looks like apulse is another port that needs the insertion of "#include <libgen.h>" to compile on CRUX-MUSL. The compiler can be told not to stop at warnings (deprecated or renamed glib functions), but it refuses to overlook an error about incompatible pointer type.
<remiliascarlet>
farkuhar: Who said that "Psl God Mindset" is lavaball's channel?
<SiFuh>
ukky: Good point
<remiliascarlet>
SiFuh: The whole point of that guys channel is basically, your face matters more than anything else, which is true. He shows both good and bad examples, even though his spelling capabilities are even worse than zorz's.
<remiliascarlet>
zorz: "without me #crux-social is like a funeral" Without the bunch of us, #crux has become a funeral.
<farkuhar>
ukky: yeah, that's the patch I meant.
<remiliascarlet>
SiFuh: "I wonder what he barely contributed." Occasionally he knew how to answer to conversations, but that's very rare.
<remiliascarlet>
SiFuh: I remember some comedian making fun of soy once saying it's so versitile, it's a matter of time until you'll get car tyres made out of soy.
<SiFuh>
Vance slaughtered Walz
<SiFuh>
Walz = Trump, Trump, Trump. Vance "Your running mate is the one in charge for over three years"
<SiFuh>
farkuhar: I sent two photos to Mr K. One of me standing and said "Standby Lata Lembik" then one of me sitting and I wrote "Sitby Lata Lembik" I wonder if he will get the joke.
<SiFuh>
zorz: ukky: I have some shockingly good news for myself. I got called into the garage to ask some questions and test drive the truck. After they changed my wheels and tyres there is no clunking noise or vibration in the steering. They said the bearings, the CVs, the Hubs are fine. That means, that I am one of the only vehicles to have no serious damage when we had gone jungle in Jeram Janggut. The wife
<SiFuh>
says "So let me get this straight, they just changed your tyres, rims and oil and the truck is fine? Wow!"
<SiFuh>
I freaking floored the truck around the industrial estate to see how it handles. Lots of strange looks when doing U-turns and S-turns and slamming from 3rd into 2nd and skidding the wheels.
<SiFuh>
I think, I will take it camping this month for a test run.
<SiFuh>
Oh and zorz. Wife said she likes the idea of camping alone and then returning with the Health Department the next week.
<ukky>
SiFuh: it's nice when somebody does a work for you and its done according to your expectations.
<SiFuh>
ukky: I have four mechanics and one tyre guy ;-)
<SiFuh>
And then there is me. There is still alot to do and some want to do it but I say to them "No, it is better I do myself"
<SiFuh>
Decemember, I will have the Turbo and the electrics done. The elctrics will be a massive job.
<SiFuh>
ukky: You know how you buy a car and it has plugs and wiring unused because they are there for a higher-end model or some extra fancy features. In Australia, I rip out all the wiring and remove all the crap extras I don't need. Then re-wire it with all the wiring inside of polyurethane tubing.
<SiFuh>
I have already done the rear of the truck and the mechanics was asking me what the tube is for. I then told him that is how I do it in Australia.
<ukky>
I have seen a few factory service manuals. If this, if that, when this, and when that, all possible combinations
<SiFuh>
ukky: Yeah but if you are off-road in an apocalypse the mess can be a huge headache. Better to strip it down. Actually one thing I never understood. Why is the fuse box near your feet? Would it not be better in the back of your glove box? Or in a location easily accessible?
<SiFuh>
I still think that all fuses should be in a water tight box in the engine bay.
<ukky>
Never thought about fuse box location. Maybe in case of an accident, the driver might somehow access it when stuck?
<SiFuh>
I think that is the least of the driver's worries.
<ukky>
But with regard to water damage and off-road conditions, new cars cannot withstand that
<SiFuh>
Centre Console, underneath the headliner's courtesy lamp. A push up lid on top of the dash. There are heaps of better locations.
<SiFuh>
ukky: My wife's car breathes lower than the top of the tyre.
<SiFuh>
Basically the air comes from under the radiator into the engine. Imagine that in flood waters
<ukky>
but most cars would not withstand that amount of flood
<SiFuh>
Last time it was heavy rain and flooding near Maran. The police closed the roads to everyone. 7 of us came driving through in our convoy of off-road trucks and we didn't even need to stop. The police opened the road for us when they saw us heading towards them. Closed the roads behind us. Was kind of cool.
<ukky>
everyone needs offroad vehicle for such area then
<SiFuh>
Our state 'Pahang' is one of the most notorious flood zones in all of Malaysia
<SiFuh>
Last trip, I was under all the other guys trucks and realised... Only the rich kid and I had set up out trucks for water driving. We installed raised differential breathers.
<SiFuh>
Many had no breathers at all.
<ukky>
In general, I remember what differential is, but have no idea what 'breather' is
<ukky>
The most complex work I did for a car was to change oil and oil filter
<SiFuh>
Your differential comes fitted with factory breathers. These are usually one-way valves that work to release pressure from the diff. As your vehicle runs, the oil in your differential will heat up, causing the diff to expand and build a lot of pressure.
<SiFuh>
If you were to drive a hot diff through a cold stream or puddle, it would cool rapidly, causing it to contract and create a vacuum inside.
<SiFuh>
Like a vacuum, your diff will create suction as it contracts. If your diff happens to be submerged when this suction occurs, water will be sucked in through any weak points, such as oil seals or the factory breather.
<SiFuh>
Copy and paste was faster than typing it ;-)
<ukky>
does it sucks oil back with negative pressure?
<SiFuh>
I changed mine to a higher location with polyurethane tubing so that the water needs to be a little higher than my feet
<SiFuh>
ukky: HAHAHA
<SiFuh>
ukky: Oil spill off the coast of Alaska. All 4x4 guys go there to park their car into the ocean to suck the oil back in.
<SiFuh>
The breathers main purpose is to protect all your oil seals. We move them higher because we go through deep water.
<SiFuh>
Stock breathers are usually fitted too low on a vehicle to be safe from complete submersion. When it comes to installing aftermarket breathers, you want to find the highest point possible to ensure pressure ventilation will occur well above the water line.
<ukky>
and you have stainless pipe between differential and the breather?
<SiFuh>
I do plan to make the higher, but for now the one way valves work very well.
<SiFuh>
ukky: Something funny for you. I was talking about LSD and STD's at the restaurant today. The couple beside my wife and I were phone addicts but when they heard the two acronymns they gave us a dirty look.
<ukky>
and check valve is attached to free end of the tube?
<SiFuh>
I said "We are not talking about Lysergic Acid the drug 'LSD' or Sexually Transmitted Diseases. LSD is Limited Slip Diff and STD is Standard Diff. We are talking about 4x4 off road vehicles." They laughed.
<SiFuh>
The valve is a piece of rubber with a spring and a cap. When pressure expands, it pushes the rubber so the diff farts. When pressure compresses it shuts tight like a fishes wet arsehole.
<SiFuh>
Hahah should be called ca differential sphincter ;-)
<SiFuh>
kh1b: My truck seems to be the only truck to survive the last trip. Only an oil and tyre change and everything is back to normal.
<SiFuh>
They said, you problem was your rims. Not CV, hub or bearings.
<SiFuh>
My wife shocked as well. The mechanic too
<kh1b>
SiFuh: oh realy
<kh1b>
that sound good
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: We decided to not buy liver anymore for the dog. I eat liver but something inside said "Don't eat it" and I didn't. The dog removes it from her bowl and refuses to touch it for almost an hour after. So I think there might be something wrong with it
<kh1b>
SiFuh: you back on the road with it or not yet
<SiFuh>
kh1b: Yeah, cheaper. But December the big job begins. I want a complete re-wiring.
<SiFuh>
kh1b: Yesterday, I was. Smasking the parking lot and driving around like a maniac with super tight U-Turns and S-Turns and hitting the skids out the front of other shops and scaring the dogs. They called me for a test drive.
<SiFuh>
kh1b: I hope it is ready for the next camping trip. It is a 2 hour drive. So it is a good test drive even if not off-road.
<kh1b>
yeah but make sure the road isnt fucked up to not fall again on the same thing
<SiFuh>
We didn't drive on a road last time
<kh1b>
yeah i know, i didnt meant a made up road
<SiFuh>
kh1b: Road's don't usually require shovels and chainsaws and axes :-P
<SiFuh>
My wife hated it but she is still happy to be part of it.
<SiFuh>
kh1b: The worst part... It still wasn't real off-roading to me
<kh1b>
but you got a picture of your trucks limits
<SiFuh>
kh1b: She and I were talking about it today. She asks "In a real emergency what will happen?" I said "I take over. I don't think any of them are emergency trained, so my rules" She replied "Hmm, I think so"
<SiFuh>
kh1b: It survived dude. So we haven't found the limits yet.
<kh1b>
shit so it can do better
<SiFuh>
The health department joins us. But they don't emergency
<SiFuh>
kh1b: Yeah, today we discovered it can go further than we pushed it
<SiFuh>
kh1b: I was in the emergency services in Australia for several years. My wife knows and she loves the stories. Well not all. But she knows, when shit hits the fan, I become the leader. Speaking modestly.
<SiFuh>
I do think though kh1b that Jeram Janggut showed us what our truck can and can't do. Even though it survived.
<SiFuh>
She actually said this and not joking "So you think it was the truck or your driving?" I replied "It was the truck"
<kh1b>
you know how to handle stuff like that
<SiFuh>
Emergency?
<kh1b>
yes
<SiFuh>
Yeah.
<SiFuh>
CPR and basic first aid sure. It is normal in Australia
<SiFuh>
CPR is tested yearly though. First aid is every 3 years.
<SiFuh>
However! First aid in Malaysia is way different from Australia. As I discovered.
<SiFuh>
In Malaysia they teach you to wash the snake bite. In Australia they say NEVER wash it. The sample of poison can be used to detect which snake it is. Malaysia is right because the poison eats the skin. Australia is right because you can get an airlift in a hour and they can find out what poison you have.
<kh1b>
yeah, and also when you go through shit you get experience from that
<SiFuh>
Sadly, yes...
zorz_ has quit [Quit: Lost terminal]
<SiFuh>
Malaysia says never torniquette and Austrlia say you must.
<SiFuh>
If it was a snake bite, I will not wash and I will torniquette. Every hour loosen and tighten again
<SiFuh>
Mr K was bitten when he was winching my rope. I saw it. Wondered why he ripped his shirt off throwing my cable to the ground. Later see he was bitten by a spider.
<SiFuh>
He showed me and I said "It's a bee, ant or spider. Is it itchy?" He said "No itch, it is fire" and I said "Maybe a spider." He paniced.
<SiFuh>
I told him most spiders can't kill a human but they do hurt. He went to clinic and they said "Spider"
<SiFuh>
My wife enjoyed it because she got to eat a lot of food whilst he was in the clinic. HAHAH
<SiFuh>
Last trip we passed a clinic and I said "Mr K can go here" hahahahahaha and wife says "It's closed" "Oh come on, that was a joke!"
<kh1b>
i have no experience with shit like that, grow up in a city and still living there, cant wait to quit
<SiFuh>
I grew up in Australia. Playing with crocodiles to scorpions.
<SiFuh>
They say 1 in 8 animals in Australia can kill you.
<SiFuh>
Malaysia has too but they HUNT you.
<kh1b>
Australia is another story
<SiFuh>
Australian animals avoid you.
<kh1b>
with the animals
<SiFuh>
Last trip I was pulling on a snake to make sure it was not dead. If it was, I'd take it home for eating.
<SiFuh>
Everyone thought I was crazy. Then the wife says "He's Australian"
<SiFuh>
kh1b: My wife has a beautiful tent to sleep in. I chose it :-P but we also have a roof top tent on the truck. But I sleep outside like a cowboy on a bed roll near the fire.
<SiFuh>
In Malaysia they say "NEVER sleep on the ground" but I do. I care zero. I love the nature. I actually hate, really hate sleeping in a tent.
<SiFuh>
Second last trip they were looking for me. Can't find me anywhere then realised I was in the roof top tent. HORRIBLE sleep. Asked why and I said. I paid 4K for this tent, I need to try it once.
<SiFuh>
I doubt very much I will sleep in it again.
<SiFuh>
I like my stars, fire, warmth, cold ground, nature, and wildlife noise.
<SiFuh>
I actually bought it for my wife because she sucks at setting up a tent that I never sleep in. I slept in it once. Didn't like being surrounded with flammable nylon.
<kh1b>
never encountered any dangerous animals
<SiFuh>
kh1b: Years ago in Kelantan. My friend invited me on a boy scout trip. The story is very long. But the short version was after everyone fell asleep I walked into the jungle and made a place to sleep from palm trees. About 20 minutes from the site. It rained. I was happy then I realised. They have Burmese pythons and tigers here. Still slept very well.
<SiFuh>
kh1b: We use to tease crocodiles when we were kids
<SiFuh>
kh1b: In Australia school they taught (Don't know about to day with all the soyboy faggots) how to live in Australia and what to do with dangerous animals.
<SiFuh>
The one I never saw but was taught about was Cassowaries. This bird can cut through the door of your car with its feet
<kh1b>
animals are super wild out there
<SiFuh>
Makes a bear look like a pussy
<SiFuh>
I only feared Megolania
<SiFuh>
The last Megalania ever killed was in the 70s but suppose to be extinct
<SiFuh>
It can run, climb, see, smell, swim. It makes the Komodo Dragon a kids toy.
<SiFuh>
Aboriginals were petrified of it and hunted most of them down.
<SiFuh>
I have never seen one. But the fear is still real
galambo has joined #crux-social
ppetrov^ has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: Asked a friend "Do you want to see what happens when I insult all Chinese in a restaurant very loudly because the cunts eat soy?"
<SiFuh>
He said "Sure"
<SiFuh>
I said "Nothing happens"
<SiFuh>
I wonder how many likes they got on their youtube videos
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: I abuse the customers again this time very loudly at a restaurant. So we moved to a Japanese restaurant that said "If you don't want soy we can do" then offered soy on the side, Hahaha
kh1b has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
galambo has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<remiliascarlet>
SiFuh: "remiliascarlet: probably already knows now ^" Actually, I didn't know yet.
<remiliascarlet>
SiFuh: "https://www.rt.com/news/605134-telegram-disclosed-ip-addresses/" IP address details are most likely a non-issue, unless somebody uses a static IP, to which personal data can be traced back to very easily. Phone numbers on the other hand are a huge security risk, those contain all sorts of personal data.
<remiliascarlet>
Also, liver itself isn't bad, just make sure it came from an animal that had a healthy life (have to type extra words to get around your autism).
<remiliascarlet>
I like Indian and Turkish restaurants. Both have chicken and lamb, I ask to serve without vegetables and spices, and they do exactly as I request.
<remiliascarlet>
At yakiniku you can request no vegetables and marinades too, but you have to keep babysitting the employees with each order.
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: I think this government approved meat has an issue
<SiFuh>
Also you missed my last run in with a Chinese restaurant
<SiFuh>
I actually stood up and asked any Chinese man to fight me.
<SiFuh>
They all turned to their phones. Cowards
<SiFuh>
Similar to the last story
<remiliascarlet>
They fight you over 5G.
<SiFuh>
'I want the steak but no soy" "We can't make it without soy" "So you soak the meat in soy?" "No we cook the meat in soy" "Well, I don't want soy" "We can't do that" "Why can't you do that?" "Because you might complain about the taste"
<SiFuh>
"If you put soy in it, I WILL FUCKING COMPLAIN. This fucking place is full of stupid dumb shit Chinese cunts that eat soy" I look around the room to make sure everyone hears. "You know the reason you Chinese are pussy weak cowards? You eat SOY YOU MORONS! You are all estrogen filled women bitches. No one here is man enough to tell me I am wrong"
<SiFuh>
Silence............
<SiFuh>
"NO! I don't want your shit soy, and you want to force me to have it. I ain't eating it."
<SiFuh>
Silence............
<SiFuh>
"You see? You are all pussy soyboys"
<SiFuh>
And congratulations to my wife. Even though she is angry she stands by me.
<remiliascarlet>
This is why I always said that China will not be the one taking world hegemony.
<SiFuh>
After that we went to Japanese restaraunt.
<SiFuh>
Worst part is the Japanese restaurant is operated by Chinese.
<remiliascarlet>
Every hegemone so far has been a warrior nation at the time they took power, and also had massive economic freedoms. China has neither of these.
<SiFuh>
I tell my wife. Replace soy with Heroin and then re-read everything I said
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: I am surrounded by morons
<remiliascarlet>
Japanese restaurants worldwide are most likely not operated by actual Japanese people.
<SiFuh>
I don't want it but I have to have it because if I have I what I don't want I will complain even though I will complain if they give me what I don't want.
<SiFuh>
They are morons. Fucking idiots
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: I knew of one in Thailand that was Japanese. No women chefs allowed. You must be male and Japanese to work there.
<remiliascarlet>
When I went to Europe, the only Japanese restaurant operated by actual Japanese people was in Duesseldorf, Germany. In every other western European country it has been Chinese. In southern Europe it was mostly Arabs, and in eastern Europe it was mostly Ukrainians.
<SiFuh>
I don't like food made by fancy women.
<SiFuh>
Their shitty makeup and perfume ruins it
<remiliascarlet>
Japanese women don't use perfume.
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: I eat one dish they make. I will not touch another it is shit.
<remiliascarlet>
In fact, we always complain about foreigners using perfume.
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: I bet you smell so good then
<SiFuh>
That wasn't sarcasm
<SiFuh>
I hate perfume
<remiliascarlet>
Most don't smell at all.
<SiFuh>
I banned my wife from it
<remiliascarlet>
The few that do have a scent are either vegans, or consume loads of seed oils.
<SiFuh>
I don't want makeup or perfume or even soap
<SiFuh>
She still uses it secretly but I know.
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: Vegans smell like amonia
<SiFuh>
They have this fucking odor that even I can smell
<remiliascarlet>
Never smelled amonia, so no idea how that smells like.
<SiFuh>
Oh look it is lavaball. How did you find me? You stink you fucking cunt.
<remiliascarlet>
But to me, vegans smell like rotten cabage with way outdated garlic and seed oils poured over them.
<SiFuh>
I have a very bad sense of smell
<SiFuh>
But I can smell vegans, and soap
<SiFuh>
And I hate both
<SiFuh>
I also can't taste so good either.
<remiliascarlet>
I hate artificial smells in general too.
<SiFuh>
Everything is like rice to me
<remiliascarlet>
You can clearly sense the chemicals in the scents.
<SiFuh>
If you need soap to get clean, you are in the wrong job
<SiFuh>
I think that is what Aunt Sally is smellign with the liver.
<SiFuh>
I think she smells chemicals and goes "Yeah... No fucking way... Well maybe when I am bored or hungry"
<SiFuh>
I looked at the liver. I like liver but something inside me said "No"
<SiFuh>
So I wonder if I picked up what she picked up
<remiliascarlet>
If I'm literally starving and all I had was chemical covered crap, I'd much rather grab my knife, and kill some bird outside instead.
<SiFuh>
And don't forget, I actually can't smell very well
<SiFuh>
I trained to smell under my sensei but I just don't have the nerves to smell it
<SiFuh>
He could smell water before he puts his foot down.
<remiliascarlet>
My sense of smell is really good, and it temporarily improves whenever I have a period.
<SiFuh>
He told me, you don't smell with the front of your nose, you smell deep inside your nose, Just before the eyes. Sorry sensei, doesn't work for me. I was born this way.
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: Chinese are like that too
<SiFuh>
I hated it.
<SiFuh>
4am my bed sheets and blanket pulled off of me in Shanghai so they can air it out under the sunshine.
<SiFuh>
It's fucking winter and 2 feet of snow.
<SiFuh>
I felt they took it to the extreme like a drug addiction
<SiFuh>
Even my pillows were stolen
<remiliascarlet>
A few days ago I met an elderly woman who happens to be from Australia, asks if I eat any soy. I said I'm eating only meat and eggs, and she suddenly tells me about her husband who had epilepsy, and healed that under a ketogenic diet. She also told me she killed an animal once in her life because she was starving.
<SiFuh>
Nice
<SiFuh>
Where is her husband?
<SiFuh>
And Keto diet is a fad
<remiliascarlet>
No idea, she lives in Japan for almost 2 decades though, so maybe her husband might be Japanese?
<SiFuh>
I don't follow fads
<SiFuh>
I eat what I what I want and when I want
<remiliascarlet>
Keto was originally created to treat schizophrenia.
<SiFuh>
I do eat mostly meat and eggs though
<SiFuh>
I think if you camp with us you and I will eat pretty much the same shit but I cook my meat
<remiliascarlet>
But she recommended that I learn how to kill an animal, since it's a very useful skill while on a meat based diet. I said I did kill a cow earlier this year.
<SiFuh>
But I am pretty hard core. I will eat cold tinned food
<SiFuh>
Killing is easy
<SiFuh>
Emotions are not easy
<SiFuh>
No offence but most women find it hard
<remiliascarlet>
I recommend you try beef cooked rare, so it's cooked on the outside, but still kind of raw on the inside.
<SiFuh>
The best is to pet it and look it in the eyes, before you slice the throat.
<SiFuh>
I will not eat what you recommend because I am jungle trained
<remiliascarlet>
I know, most women find it hard. But same applies to most men these days too.
<SiFuh>
I know the dangers even if you think they are fake
<SiFuh>
True
<SiFuh>
I hate to take a life
<SiFuh>
But if I need food, I will kill it and gut and skin it. Actually I rarely skin anything
<remiliascarlet>
It's nature in the end. Someone needs to die for you to live.
<SiFuh>
I just removes the offal and cook it in clay or foil and pick the meat from the skin
<SiFuh>
remiliascarlet: So you read the bible then? :-P
<remiliascarlet>
I said nature, not man made rules.
<SiFuh>
You think the bible is made of man made rules?
<SiFuh>
You should read it
<SiFuh>
It explains that if you do this, the results will be this
<SiFuh>
It's an instuction book
<SiFuh>
It explains everything with real life stories.
<SiFuh>
It teaches right from wrong. And tells you stories of what happens when you do wrong.
<SiFuh>
The people who talk shit about the bible usually have never read it
<SiFuh>
Or too stupid to understand what it is teaching
<SiFuh>
Just look at zorz. He is a fucking moron. But he boasts that some books are written in Helanistic Greek but he has never read a word. Yet, he has an opinion.
<SiFuh>
I have a book about Malaysian snakes. I have actually read every page. The Malays here come to me and ask me. They don't zorz me and say it is Malay we know. No, then come to me. An Aussie with a Malay snake book.
<SiFuh>
then come/they come
<remiliascarlet>
If I were to talk about the contents of a book here, I'm sure some idiot on social media would threaten me with a copyright infringement.
