<kris_>
you also said "i think you'll like jq or jaq more"
<kris_>
your query looks wild
<kris_>
yq*
<sewn>
yeah
<kris_>
>b.sewn.moe
<kris_>
what this
<sewn>
its just basic filtering
<sewn>
this is my bouncer
<kris_>
it has an image
<sewn>
it supports file uploads
<kris_>
wtf
<sewn>
soju does atleast
<kris_>
fuck soju ngl
<sewn>
you have to add some lines to the con
<kris_>
i still dont know what to do about mine
<sewn>
...fig
<kris_>
i might switch back to znc or just honestly run senpai in a tmux session
<sewn>
and what's wrong with soju?
<kris_>
just weird bugs i havent been able to diagnose, right now i don't get any DMs that are sent when my client is closed
<kris_>
it only plays back channel messages
<sewn>
thats a senpai problem
<kris_>
i really doubt that
<sewn>
yes it is
<sewn>
both of them are working hard to fix it
<kris_>
wait is this a known thing lmfao it was fine like 2 months ago
<midfavila>
i'm still casting my vote for mtm+ii+tee
<sewn>
to allow dm channels to be retained in chathistory
<kris_>
oh i dont have chathistory
<kris_>
i use the memory database
<kris_>
but it *was* fine
<sewn>
okay then don't use soju???
<midfavila>
sewn is sassy tonight
<sewn>
if youre not gonna actually use it for what its made for
<midfavila>
mrow
<kris_>
i tried to set it up locally but liberachat really doesn't like mullvad
<sewn>
midfavila's irc setup is better than yours
<kris_>
>use it for what its made for <- i don't like having my text stored on-disk on a hetzner vps
<sewn>
because atleast its RIGHT
<kris_>
i know they can just dump the memory contents at will but it's less likely anything is really captured
<kris_>
given init_on_free and the fact that it doesnt retain anything once its dumped
<sewn>
kris_: how is this any different
<midfavila>
use sqlite on your local machine accessed over https or something to store your crap if it's that important that you save every byte for posterity
<kris_>
it would be nicer if senpai actually kept clientside history
<kris_>
znc + weechat was a better setup, i need to go back to that
<midfavila>
have you considered a scriptable client
<sewn>
you said you use the memory database, kris
<midfavila>
that obeys muh unix feelosophy
<kris_>
sewn: yeah i do, it stores the db in memory and i'm fully aware that it's very primitive
<sewn>
I've had no problems with anything in the stack and its working so well
<midfavila>
man speaking of mtm i really need to experiment with curses
<midfavila>
there's like one ncurses function call in the whole thing
<kris_>
but yeah, the actual solution is to set up a proxy on one of my vps'
<midfavila>
if i patched that out or implemnted a shim or something that would make it portable to netbsd curses
<kris_>
liberachat doesn't seem to allow logins with mullvad at all
<sewn>
kris_: then why are you blaming soju for everything
<sewn>
ugh
<midfavila>
why do you have a qubes-over-the-network thing going on
<midfavila>
seems very not kiss
<sewn>
midfavila: do it
<kris_>
i'm blaming my stack for not playing back my DMs
<kris_>
randomly
<sewn>
its not randomly
<sewn>
if you have an unread, it will show
<midfavila>
sewn as soon as i have time lol
<kris_>
that's the thing, it doesn't
<sewn>
if youve read it, it won't show
<kris_>
i dont' get unread DMs at all
<midfavila>
but i need to ACQUIRE FUDNS so i can CONSOOM
<sewn>
and your DM list won't appear
<kris_>
read DMs i expect to not show
<kris_>
unread ones i do, and they don't
<sewn>
if you use gamja all of your DMS will show
<sewn>
senpai on the other hand won't show all of your dms
<midfavila>
this soju thing sounds like a pain
<kris_>
again, no need for all of my DMs lmfao
<sewn>
it is not a pain at all
<midfavila>
if you just want basic irc shit why not irssi
<kris_>
i don't care that they vanish as long as ive had the chance to read them before they do
<sewn>
kris_: I'm explaining the protocols issue
<midfavila>
i use irssi on sdf and it just werks
<sewn>
midfavila: because irssi is older than all of us
<kris_>
irssi is ass
<sewn>
designed like shit
<midfavila>
so is linux
<midfavila>
and so is linux
<kris_>
guess what's ass
<midfavila>
and so is linux
<sewn>
atleast it feels modern
<kris_>
:p
<midfavila>
and yet we all use it
<midfavila>
hmmmmmmmmm
<midfavila>
fascinating
<sewn>
its designed ahead of time, midfavila
<sewn>
look at how well it has aged
<sewn>
irssi isn't
<midfavila>
you criticise something and yet you use that same thing
<midfavila>
fascinating indeed
<kris_>
debian 13 is cozy, less fighting
<kris_>
they've dropped certain things that cause me problems
<midfavila>
i had an argument in the grocery store food court with arch guy about wayland btw
<midfavila>
did i mention that
<kris_>
oh god
<midfavila>
lmao
<kris_>
if someone comes up to me because of the stickers on my laptop i'm probably going to decline talking to them at all
<sewn>
I would make it physical if it were with mid
<sewn>
this mf just throws ad hominems for no good reason
<kris_>
situationally of course
<midfavila>
i would bully you sewn
<midfavila>
put you in a headlock and apply copious headpats until you stopped being angy
<midfavila>
same with kris_
<kris_>
i'm not angy
<kris_>
at the moment
<sewn>
I will beat the shit out of you
<midfavila>
pfff
<sewn>
you do not disregard opinions and then apply headpats
<sewn>
that's manipulation
<midfavila>
yes
<midfavila>
cope
<kris_>
midfavila: i kinda overdosed on nootropics the other day and it had some interesting effects
<midfavila>
seethe
<midfavila>
breathe
<kris_>
i'm still kinda recovering from that
<midfavila>
drink water
<sewn>
breadcrumbing if anything
<midfavila>
eat food
<midfavila>
touch grass
<midfavila>
sleep at least eight to nine hours a day
* kris_
has been touching unbelievable amounts of grass recently
<kris_>
i also got an acoustic bicycle
<midfavila>
get 30 to 60 minutes of moderate exercise a day
<midfavila>
what the fuck s an acoustic bicycle
<sewn>
kris_: nice
<kris_>
i'm also a moron because i didnt tighten the front wheel correctly which made the thing like 5x more difficult to pedal
<kris_>
an acoustic bicycle is a non electric one
<kris_>
its just bicycle
<midfavila>
that's just a regular bike
<midfavila>
>:c
<midfavila>
fucking zoomies
<midfavila>
jesus christ on a crucifix
<kris_>
you're one of us dillweed
<midfavila>
and yet i don't call regular bicycles "acoustic"
<midfavila>
strange
<kris_>
its just funny
<kris_>
or was intended to be
<kris_>
my bad
* midfavila
flicks kris_' nose
<midfavila>
how dare
<kris_>
fwiw when i call myself a bass player i don't say electric bass
<kris_>
i just say bass
<kris_>
even though it's electric
<midfavila>
also yes you need to check your rim and brake alignment
<midfavila>
is it rim or disc
<kris_>
i had just put the wheel on
<kris_>
idfk what it is
<kris_>
its not mine, a friend let me borrow it
<midfavila>
oh
<midfavila>
buy one
<kris_>
i'm smacked that the dude was like >yeah this is an $1800 bike
<midfavila>
1800 on a bike is pretty basic
<kris_>
>just get a bike lock, if something happens im not gonna be mad as long as you actually locked it up
<kris_>
its fucking not because it isnt electric
<midfavila>
it's like 1800 on a computer
<kris_>
1800 on an electric one is normal
<midfavila>
uhhhh
<midfavila>
you clearly haven't ever specced out a custom bike
<kris_>
no i haven't
<kris_>
and i hate this thing anwyay
<kris_>
i'm too short for it
<midfavila>
tricycle time
<midfavila>
:3c
<midfavila>
but yeah
<midfavila>
just a high end groupset can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars
<kris_>
no im fine with riding a bike lmfao
<kris_>
this one is just too tall for me
<kris_>
it's a chore to get on top of and its a chore to stop it
<kris_>
once i get forward momentum its fine aside from the pedals being kinda too far away from me
<midfavila>
like if i ever have stupid money i want to get this part from germany called a schlumpf drive
<kris_>
i literally just wanted an ebike
<midfavila>
it's a gearbox that sits inside the crankset and bottom bracket
<kris_>
all of this car / acoustic bicycle shit is stupid
<kris_>
or a 49cc moped, i also mentioned that
<midfavila>
and it's like 260cad
<midfavila>
2600*
<kris_>
if the bike wasn't too tall for me it would be dead simple
<kris_>
5 mile ride
<kris_>
5 miles is nothing
<kris_>
8.04km for you
<midfavila>
yeah on relatively flat terrain in okay conditions
<kris_>
it's completely flat
<kris_>
i'm midwest
<midfavila>
that's about my morning commute by bike
<kris_>
i used to ride 3 miles daily in the mountains
<midfavila>
the only part of my commute that sucks is this huge fucking bridge right at the goddamn start
<kris_>
people around me are just making things harder than they need to be
<kris_>
though they'd say the same thing about me
<midfavila>
i always end up tired and gross and out of breath by the time i get to the other side
<kris_>
>no i dont want a car i just want an ebike
<kris_>
>buys me a car
<kris_>
>won't drive with me so i can't learn to drive and go take the test
<kris_>
>even if i do, insurance costs and gas is also expensive
<midfavila>
sell the car and buy a honda usper cub 49cc
<midfavila>
super cub
<kris_>
cant sell the car, that would be rude or w/e
<kris_>
and its not under my name rn anyway
<midfavila>
who cares lmao
<midfavila>
it was rude of them to impose on you
<kris_>
"you aren't going to want to ride your ebike when it's -35f outside"
<midfavila>
"yes i am, cope"
<kris_>
which is very wrong because i couldn't care less about -35f
<midfavila>
i've ridden my bike in like -50c
<midfavila>
it's fine
<kris_>
and the ebike i wanted for way less than half the price of the car can do 40mph
<kris_>
which makes it road legal
<midfavila>
jesus christ
<midfavila>
that's double the speed limit here for ebikes
<kris_>
its technically not legal
<kris_>
it is for an ebike but not for someone without a motorcycle license
<kris_>
but no cop gives a shit because 1. i'm white 2. if you aren't driving it unsafely they don't care to check
<kris_>
i hate that #1 isn't a joke, i wish it was
<midfavila>
i mean it's america
<midfavila>
everyone just expects it at this point
<kris_>
my politics course @ uni is funny so far
<midfavila>
such is reality in the burgerreic
<midfavila>
h
<midfavila>
is it cringe libshit
<kris_>
professor keeps saying "i want you guys to talk about this but i cant give you input or ill get fired"
<kris_>
i pressed him on that and he said "i can either lie about what's going on or not say anything"
<kris_>
and wouldnt comment further
<midfavila>
"can you tell me if the following scenarios aren't true"
<kris_>
and yes its cringe because he keeps expressing that classical liberalism / conservatism are the only rational choices
<midfavila>
lame
<midfavila>
cringe
<midfavila>
bully him
<midfavila>
make him cry
<kris_>
im here to get the credit for the course mid i couldnt give less of a shit
<midfavila>
>:CCCCCCCCCCCCCC
<kris_>
i'm not here to be indoctrinated or to indoctrinate others, i just want the paper
<kris_>
btw i was playing a bunch of call of duty modern warfare 2 multiplayer earlier
<kris_>
its crazy that we're at a point where on cod people are discussing marxism/leninism as opposed to calling eachother slurs on NA servers
<kris_>
THAT is way more reflective of things than anything else ive noticed
<midfavila>
chat is this a recession indicator
<kris_>
>cod players aren't calling eachother slurs or being toxic
<kris_>
something's clearly off here
<midfavila>
also why don't you just get a vespa
<kris_>
though tbf it's iw4x which is a foss third party client that exists to patch RCEs that activision wont fix in their game
<midfavila>
get dery to smuggle an old ww2 vespa into america
<midfavila>
the ones with the mounted machineguns or whatever
<kris_>
i have like $400 in my bank right now lol
<midfavila>
sell car
<kris_>
what i get is according to what my family will buy for me
<midfavila>
buy vespa
<kris_>
no id just drive the car if anyone would fucking sit next to me while i drive
<kris_>
all they gotta do is sit there so i can legally practice
<kris_>
driving during that "nootropic overdose" was wild
<kris_>
idk if thats even a real thing
<midfavila>
yeah but are they gonna
<kris_>
idk i dont like driving with my dad
<kris_>
it's the real life equivalent of holding the flashlight
<kris_>
for me
<kris_>
he yells and stresses me out which makes me way way way worse at driving because it fucks up my focus
<kris_>
which then makes the source of that worsse
<kris_>
loop
<kris_>
i also need to sort something out for lunch
<kris_>
the cafeteria at my uni wants $5 for one slice of pizza
<midfavila>
buy a rice cooker and a bag of rice
<midfavila>
i bought some folding cutlery recently and i am absolutely stoked
<midfavila>
they like
<midfavila>
clip together using magnets
<midfavila>
and then you can fold them in half
<midfavila>
they fit inside my little sandwich tin perfectly
<midfavila>
now the only thing i really need to complete my lunch set is a nice lunchbox
<midfavila>
maybe some condiment containers... doubtful though
<midfavila>
anyway yeah idk why are you shopping at the cafeteria
<midfavila>
bring a bag lunch
<kris_>
because i dont have a lunchbox atm
<kris_>
gotta drop by the grocery store to get one so i can just pack a sandwich and some chips or something
<kris_>
the cafeteria was just convenient, was first week
<midfavila>
get
<midfavila>
LUNCHBOX
<midfavila>
NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<midfavila>
get one of those cool aluminium ones
<kris_>
ya just gotta find one thats a good size to fit in my backpack
<kris_>
one i can also fit a decent sized ice pack in
<midfavila>
i mean i'm sure the dollar store or whatever would have a decent enough basic one
<midfavila>
or ikea
<kris_>
yeah ill look around
<kris_>
or ill consoom and use amazon
<midfavila>
i'm going to get one from l may manufacturing if i can get a deal
<midfavila>
they're ~made in canada~
<midfavila>
wowowowow
<kris_>
my ass is about to start buying things on aliexpress to support *their* economy
<kris_>
not because thats better but because i'm in a bad mood
<midfavila>
you can always give me your money
<midfavila>
that would really show trump
<midfavila>
:3c
<midfavila>
it's okay kris_ general secretary and dear leader of the eco-juchean people's revolution marx carney will surely allow for americans to enter the socialist republic of canuckistan as refugees soon
<midfavila>
the cbc has been talking about it a bit lately
<kris_>
also side thing
<kris_>
the deli at my local grocery store packages their own meats / cheeses / etc
<midfavila>
that's neat
<kris_>
i have discovered that these are 2000x better than like
<midfavila>
can't imagine it's cheap though
<kris_>
>go to fridge with meat section
<kris_>
actually its cheaper
<kris_>
you can also walk up to them and just buy a whole salmon or something if you want
<midfavila>
burgoid discovers that fresh food is better than packaged
<midfavila>
:P
<kris_>
its packaged
<kris_>
they just package shit more often?
<kris_>
and they do it in the store
<midfavila>
if it's a deli counter it's to-order, isn't it?
<kris_>
the salmon is yes
<kris_>
the other stuff is on a little cold thingy in front of the counter
<midfavila>
weird
<kris_>
plastic bags with cheese/etc
<midfavila>
still, delis tend to be higher quality
<midfavila>
if i had the money i would get most of my basics at delis but that's kind of bougie
<kris_>
either way it's substantially superior to anything ive found elsewhere in the store
<kris_>
like stuff they just buy and resell
<midfavila>
yeah
<midfavila>
delis almost always have higher end stuff
<kris_>
their pepperjack fucks
<kris_>
so does their cheddar and otherwise
<kris_>
tbh i just like cheese blanket statement so its easy to please
<midfavila>
yeab sounds about right
<kris_>
bleh i have to read
<midfavila>
destroy all books
<midfavila>
moon god decrees
<kris_>
based
<midfavila>
unga bunga
<kris_>
i wanna go out into the forest and build society out of sticks and shit
<kris_>
become one with the forest spirit
<kris_>
ive started a few little projects like that just by myself idk if ive ever talked about that
<kris_>
as a kid i used to just fuck off into the mountains all day and build fenced off areas and shelters and stuff for fun
<kris_>
taught myself how to make snares and whatnot
<kris_>
serenity
<midfavila>
sometimes i think about just going out and setting up camp but then i remember that the cops would shoot me
<kris_>
one of my good friends did that for a bit
<kris_>
he works at google and they forced him to move elsewhere in the country and he refused to sell his house he worked so hard to get
<kris_>
he ended up just setting up a sleeping bag in the woods
<kris_>
and going home on weekends
<midfavila>
modern problems, modern solutions
<midfavila>
there have been a few cases in europe and spain of people just going out and like
<midfavila>
>forming a town
<kris_>
based
<midfavila>
independent of central government
<midfavila>
it's pretty cool
<kris_>
what do they do about it
<midfavila>
the government?
<kris_>
ive been considering unironically trying to do that
<kris_>
yes
<midfavila>
of course they try to attack the settlement
<midfavila>
at which point the people setting up there have a fucking fight with the government
<midfavila>
and win
<midfavila>
lmao
<midfavila>
turns out that like a thousand nerds with nothing to lose and copious quantities of petrol and all kinds of hand tools can make some interesting stuff
<kris_>
communal starlink connection
* midfavila
facepalms
<midfavila>
you've ruined it
<midfavila>
if we're going to have a commune it's going to be packet radio on a pirate station
<kris_>
we have to be able to play counterstrike mid
<midfavila>
play counterstrike on the lan
<kris_>
but then once it gets competitive itll make everyone sour
<kris_>
on a serious note i feel like id want there to be at least a decent network
<kris_>
being able to keep a sync'd version of things like wikipedia locally
<midfavila>
this can achieve transmission rates double what my setup is
<midfavila>
but you could probably achieve higher rates by just sending some dork off on a bicycle to the local library once a month for bulk transfers
<kris_>
btw whats up with LORA
<kris_>
i just found out it existed the other day when i mentioned you to tell you about that tdeck
<kris_>
i havent looked into it like at all really
<midfavila>
its just super low frequency radio tech
<midfavila>
i've done some stuff with it in the long distant past
<kris_>
i might get a setup just so i can have actually decentralized comms
<kris_>
without needing a ham radio or otherwise
<kris_>
my grandfather is a ham nut
<midfavila>
in my old city there was a citizen engineering corps that i volunteered with briefly and i helped develop an early warning system for flooding using cheap lora modules on sbcs powered via solar
<midfavila>
i don't know if it's still in use but there was an app and stuff
