[00:17:37] <AzumaHazuki> so. some absolute galaxy-brained senior citizen came into the pharmacy not wearing a face cover. when i asked him if he had a mask, he held up a bandana. didn't put it on, mind, just held it up

[02:54:38] <chromas> "As an example, the Internet was built on top of the Linux operating system and the Apache web server application, both open source softwares. On top of that, TCP/IP was created through open source, proving that the Internet not only adopted open source technology but was largely successful because it was built on an open source protocol. The wisdom of the crowd came together in the ’80s to iterate and improve upon a technology to make
[02:54:38] <chromas> it best in class."
[02:54:46] <chromas> I learned something today. Thanks Intuit!
[03:09:48] <Bytram> chromas: Are you serious? *Maybe* Unix was around when DARPA funded DARPANET which ultimately became what we know as the internet, and which was based on the OSI's 7 layers, from which we've come to see developed TCP/IP, but Linux had NO part in it that I am aware of.
[03:17:16] <Bytram> The "web" (World Wide Web) came from Tim Berners-Lee who was working at CERN at the time. It was built to make use of TCP/IP and from which HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) was originated (based on SGML - Standard Generalized Markup Language), and only after *that* was in place did Apache have a chance to get *started*.
[03:18:35] <Bytram> Now it's late, and I'm tired and this stuff was a long time ago, but I suspect my recollection is closer to reality that what you quoted above.
[03:18:54] <Bytram> and, with that, is time to get some sleep.
[03:19:04] <Bytram> have a good night everybody!

[08:36:19] <Bender> karma - fatphil: 68
[08:38:57] <boru> He seems like a nice chap. I enjoy watching his videos.
[09:18:03] <FatPhil> He does. There was a patch where they got a bit samey, so I stopped watching them. I don't think I was learning anything from them, but they were cool.
[09:20:22] <boru> Yeah, I suppose. Some of them were a bit dragged out as well.
[09:21:07] <boru> Ben Eater and Vsauce are good also. Pootube is largely an utter waste of bandwidth, but there is the occasional good content on there.
[09:21:19] <boru> I like the Royal Institute stuff as well.
[09:28:42] <FatPhil> I don't know Ben Eater. Vsauce pretty good - did you see his long-form series? RI can be good too.
[09:28:55] <boru> I still haven't watched it, no.
[09:29:06] <FatPhil> I fucking hate Numberphile though. Seeing physicists butcher mathematics is painful.
[09:29:21] <boru> Ben Eater builds computers on breadboards, that sort of thing. His recent series was building and programming a 6502.
[09:29:35] <boru> I mean, nothing new for me to learn there, but it's a cool project.
[09:30:06] <boru> Yeah, numberphile had a lot of potential, but I can't stand the guy presenting it, and yeah, they make a pig's ear of some of it.
[09:30:06] <FatPhil> The best breadboard project was the 1-cycle-per-day computer
[09:30:34] <FatPhil> not sure if that was on youtube or just hackaday
[09:30:55] <FatPhil> its clock signal was the sun
[09:30:56] <boru> No idea. I think hackaday is terrible as well.
[09:31:44] <chromas> Especially in the comments. That's probably true everywhere though
[09:47:56] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Embarrassingly Apple's Two-Year Old ARM Chip Benchmarks Faster Than Microsoft's Surface Pro X - https://sylnt.us - oldie-but-goodie

[09:53:19] <boru> It's a shame stupidfilter never went anywhere.

[10:55:05] <Bytram> Amy Allen has a new single out today from an upcoming album. Single's title is "Queen of Silver Linings"
[10:57:04] <boru> If it's mainstream stuff, amazon music is probably where you want to go.
[10:57:19] <boru> Or spotify, but I've never used that, so who knows if you can buy it there.
[10:58:31] <Bytram> I looked at amazon, but I did not see it... could be my unfamiliarity with online services or all the ad-blockers etc. I have installed
[10:59:46] <Bytram> Amy Allen signed with Warner, so I'd like to think it would be generally available, but maybe I'm looking for it too early in the day?
[11:01:46] <boru> I don't see anything on bandcamp or amazon music
[11:01:51] <boru> itunes perhaps?
[11:02:02] <Bytram> never used it...
[11:02:14] <boru> Nor I. They're just the outlets I know of.

[11:02:46] <Bytram> they want me to download iTunes
[11:03:15] <boru> I tried searching on spotify, but they force you to the language site of the country they think you're in, so I don't understand how to search on there.
[11:03:36] <boru> And on trying to change language: upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: connection termination
[11:03:42] <boru> I really hate the web.

[11:08:36] * Bytram has some relatives with iPhones who I suspect has iTunes installed. I'll let them wake up and then ask if they can see/get it for me.

[11:12:16] <Bytram> yep, the Beg-o-Meter is up-to-date for the entire first half of the year... we got a $30 sub since then, which after fees (PayPal in this case) nets us another $28.83
[11:13:21] <Bytram> It most certainly is!!!!

[14:40:19] <boru> Did they ever figure out what caused that spike in nuclear isotopes in the Baltic?
[15:05:21] <FatPhil> it reached our national press, and that of finland, but there were no updates after the initial story.
[15:05:36] <FatPhil> they've all be rained down on me in the last 2 days, I'm sure
[15:17:25] <FatPhil> Ugh, DDG's broken (or changed its interface) if I do a search from my search bar (palemoon) I get no results, just the plain ddg search front page
[15:19:07] <FatPhil> hmmm, I removed the ddg search option, and then reset to defaults, putting it back, and now it does a redirect, so is blinky and slow, but at least vaguely works now.
[15:20:19] <FatPhil> except it doesn't, all the links are ddg redirects that 404 at their nginx
[15:21:24] <FatPhil> ahh, the reset default was "DuckDuckGo", I was using "DuckDuckGo HTML" previously

[15:39:18] <FatPhil> so either palemoon broke something, or ddg changed their interface
[15:46:33] <boru> Sorry, I was outside filming lightning.
[15:46:55] <boru> Is DDG any good these days? I'm using startpage at the moment.
[15:47:49] <boru> That fissile detection was interesting though. I thought it was a bit of a cop-out of the organisation's policy that they "don't investigate the source".

[15:56:12] <RandomFactor> Is NATO 2030 more than a discussion at this point?
[15:57:29] <FatPhil> forbes article doesn't list the same isotopes as our local news, Co-60 missing.
[15:58:47] <RandomFactor> Co-60 would indicate reactor source
[15:58:49] <FatPhil> the fact that forbes quote the “These isotopes are most likely from a civil source.” implies they know their whole story's bullshit
[15:59:36] <boru> Quite sure the JSF F-35 B61-12 certification is a precursor to NATO 2030.
[15:59:53] <boru> Considering the rate at which purchase is being pushed over here.

[21:23:11] <chromas> None of those options
[21:23:25] <FatPhil> Just drinking an imported US beer, and the commercial description on the label uses the phrase, and I was quite surprised.
[21:23:27] <chromas> "I know what it means and have heard people use it recently"
[21:23:45] <FatPhil> chromas: ah, so you do hear it in the US now?

[21:24:11] <chromas> I think I've only heeard it in the US until just now
[21:24:18] <FatPhil> A very well educated NY-er in the early 90s informed me that the phrase was completely alien to him.
[21:24:25] <chromas> Maybe I've seen it in a foreign-written article or something I guess
[21:24:31] <FatPhil> he declared it to be a pure englishism

[21:26:29] <FatPhil> so I reckon it's crept into the language in the last couple of decades.
[21:26:46] <RandomFactor> probably out of production line manufacturing if i had to guess
[21:28:43] <RandomFactor> it's further back than a couple of decades, i knew it at least 30-40 years ago

[22:01:18] <nutherguy> I still haven't created any virtual machines on this shiny new hardware
[22:01:32] <nutherguy> the shine is going to wear off before I get around to it
[22:01:38] <nutherguy> or, get a round tuit
[22:01:51] <chromas> Just make a one-off virtual machine
[22:01:57] <chromas> A one-off runoff
[22:02:31] <nutherguy> We're voting whether it's time for a nap
[22:02:41] <nutherguy> it's a runoff between me, myself, and I
[22:02:49] <chromas> I vote yea
[22:03:35] <nutherguy> I walked in the bedroom awhile ago - the wife was sprawled across the bed, and I didn't think I could get a fair share out of the leftover corners
[22:04:03] <nutherguy> maybe I'll go sit on the bed, and let the puppies wake her up . . .
[22:04:04] <chromas> The wife is now your blanket
[22:04:12] <Bytram> FatPhil: I'd not sure of the context you saw the phrase (link please if you have one, else a full quote would be helpful) but I've heard the expression "one off" before, and to me it means something akin to "It's not the real thing, but a very close copy". See: "Knock off". ==ALSO== Could be a genuine article off a manufacturing line, but it's not up to standards (e.g. failed QC) see "seconds"
[22:04:50] <chromas> Never heard it used like that before

[22:05:07] <nutherguy> mehhh - to me "one-off" means a one time thing, not likely to be repeated
[22:06:50] <Bytram> Then again, I *just* woke from a long nap, so take it with the proverbial unit of seasoning!
[22:07:15] <chromas> You require more minerals!
[22:10:59] <Bytram> and B-Vitamins
[22:39:38] <FatPhil> Bytram: that's not what the phrase means *at all*.
[22:40:04] <FatPhil> if any US-ians have that interpretation of the phrase please re-evaluate your answer.
[22:40:49] * Bytram is confused. I thought you were asking what the phrase meant, as in you did not know?
[22:41:16] <Bytram> If you knew what it meant, why/what were you asking?
[22:41:56] <FatPhil> I was asking how deeply the phrase had embedded itself in American, in opposition to English.
[22:42:24] <FatPhil> And the answers were interesting.
[22:42:55] <Bytram> Oh, in that case, certainly does not come up often in my area -- I'd say it's rare/obscure.
[22:43:57] <FatPhil> However, if the meaning has become completely mangled, then I was right in being surprised by correct use of it by Founders (Mich.) on their label.
[22:44:18] <Bytram> what was?
[22:45:16] <FatPhil> https://www.ratebeer.com
[22:46:12] <FatPhil> ``the quintessential taproom “one-off” beer'' - which implies the UK meaning, which is "a single batch", "made once", etc.
[22:46:27] <FatPhil> Hence my snark in my review.
