beginning of new day, May 9

00:06 arkanian; bagiraX: I agree

00:08 arkanian; I think he plays the 'gay' card so he can get away with being racist, homophobic, transphobic and a nazi

00:09 arkanian; Why would a gay person hate 100% of other gay people, except his husband who works 40 hours a week to fund him being on the internet

00:10 bagiraX; lol

00:11 bagiraX; i have no doubt this man has hosted l0de radio hour

00:11 bagiraX; he'd fit right in with that crowd

00:13 arkanian; i dont know what that is

00:13 arkanian; but i've seen him hate on gay people

00:13 arkanian; he is a "pick me" in regards to gay people

00:13 DaemonFC; [17:34] <arkanian> he says that Star Trek Discovery because a gay couple kissed and he said that was a huge problem

00:13 bagiraX; eh its some joe rogan wannabe podcast some toon hosts from the bowels of irc

00:14 arkanian; "every gay person is horrible except for me"

00:14 DaemonFC; No, I mean Hollywood spent all their time from the 50s through the 2000s portraying gay people as villains and perverts.

00:14 admfubar; uhm that's not how i'd see is... apple want to crush all forms human creativity and replace it with their walled garden. https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2024/05/apple-ipad-pro-commercial/678329/?utm_source=feed

00:14 TR Bot; What Was Apple Thinking With Its New iPad Commercial? - The Atlantic

00:14 DaemonFC; Then they act like it never happened and they have to find the faggiest fags in fagtown.

00:14 arkanian; lol

00:14 DaemonFC; And make them act stereotypically effeminate, which is even more offensive than Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd.

00:14 arkanian; the gay couple on discovery just kissed

00:14 arkanian; i guess that is "faggiest fag"

00:14 arkanian; i feel bad for your husband

00:15 DaemonFC; Why can't they just find anyone who acts fucking normal.

00:15 arkanian; "why can't we kiss?" "because thats a faggot thing to do, stop being woke"

00:15 DaemonFC; And say "They're gay and married and neither one of them jumps up and down screaming "Oh my God you guys!"

00:15 bagiraX; isnt it weird how around the time major productions stopped making content that was identified with by 98% of their audience that all the weird money shit started happening in hollywood

00:16 arkanian; There was nothing on Discovery that was "faggy" at all.

00:16 arkanian; Just a couple kissing.

00:16 arkanian; you're the bigot.

00:16 DaemonFC; Straight people hate us for the same reason most people hate trannies because they ran into Uncle Jessica and Brandon Lobster.

00:16 arkanian; It was 100% wholesome.

00:17 arkanian; DaemonFC: why are you so insane?

00:17 DaemonFC; Because they see some demented Hollyweirdo version of the most effeminate portrayal of homosexuality.

00:17 admfubar; https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/05/nudes-internet-social-media/678323/?utm_source=feed

00:17 TR Bot; The Nudes Internet - The Atlantic

00:17 DaemonFC; And it rubs them the wrong way.

00:17 bagiraX; i dont want to watch gay people kiss on tv. i dont want to watch straight people kiss on tv. i want to watch futuristic weapons shoot aliens and zombies and hordes of demons.

00:17 arkanian; What is so effeminate about two dudes kissing?

00:18 bagiraX; if there isn't a dude in a bearskin holding a magic sword up to the sky to get bestowed with otherworldly power to smyte his enemies is it even really a TV show

00:18 DaemonFC; Neither one of them has a masculine bone in their body, not even their pinky finger.

00:18 DaemonFC; And that's sadly how Hollyweirdos portray us.

00:18 arkanian; so?

00:18 DaemonFC; Now that we aren't Wint and Kidd.

00:19 arkanian; The gay couple kissing on Star Trek Discovery is a complete non-issue

00:19 arkanian; It was 100% wholesome

00:20 arkanian; its not like they went into the back and started doing anal sex, it was just a kiss

00:20 arkanian; fuck off

00:20 bagiraX; im just saying you can't have natural selection be predicated on a love for raiding a village with torches and big swords for 10 generations and not have identification issues with the audience when you start writing all your content to be all squishy

00:21 bagiraX; discovery wasn't even star trek

00:21 arkanian; its just evidence that DaemonFC isn't gay, he just hates women

00:21 bagiraX; im not convinced the writers for discovery ever actually watched star trek

00:21 arkanian; Star trek was always woke

00:21 arkanian; Star trek was banned in Alabama for having an interracial kiss

00:22 DaemonFC; It wasn't banned.

00:22 admfubar; https://walledculture.org/how-to-stop-video-games-being-made-unplayable-once-support-ends/

00:22 TR Bot; stream 1 was not closed cleanly: PROTOCOL_ERROR (err 1) ( status 0 @ https://walledculture.org/how-to-stop-video-games-being-made-unplayable-once-support-ends/ )

00:22 arkanian; it was

00:22 MinceR; what do alabamans think about interspecies kisses?

00:22 DaemonFC; The CBS affiliate in Alabama skipped one episode.

00:22 DaemonFC; Which was later shown in a rerun a year later.

00:22 bagiraX; it was more like a tangent of star trek that was retitled from "Failed Savious Complex: The Diaries of a Narcissist named Michael Burnham"

00:22 arkanian; fuck off DaemonFC

00:22 bagiraX; *failed saviour complex

00:22 bagiraX; fuck michael burnham and fuck discovery

00:22 arkanian; bagiraX: fuck off racist

00:23 arkanian; Discovery was the best star trek

00:23 bagiraX; oh boo hoo they didn't collect enough tokens in one character to distract from their bad writing, too bad, so sad

00:23 DaemonFC; So they skipped the episode and then showed it in a rerun a few months later, and CBS is the State government?

00:23 DaemonFC; CBS had the broadcast license. It was their episode, they could have shown it immediately in the first run if they wanted to.

00:24 bagiraX; https://youtu.be/Iz8feYskRpk?feature=shared

00:24 TR Bot; NO TITLE

00:24 DaemonFC; CBS chose not to show it in Alabama on first run and when they did, nobody rioted or anything.

00:24 DaemonFC; The State government has nothing to do with the broadcast license of a CBS station in Alabama. The Federal Communications Commission does.

00:25 DaemonFC; So it was network executives that made the call, and there was nothing the State threatened them with, or could have done to them, had they shown it.

00:25 DaemonFC; And when they did several months later, literally nothing bad happened.

00:25 arkanian; Alabama

00:26 bagiraX; except their ratings tanked because all the boosters wore off

00:26 DaemonFC; Then fast forward from 1967 to 2024 and people still claim that Alabama banned Star Trek, when that's a bald-faced lie.

00:26 DaemonFC; The network executives preempted the episode.

00:26 arkanian; DaemonFC: you also said Discovery was "faggy" when all they did was a gay kiss

00:26 arkanian; so fuck off, you damned pick-me

00:27 bagiraX; the whole concept of discovery was off from star trek

00:27 DaemonFC; Why would they preempt it in Alabama and nowhere else?

00:27 DaemonFC; The issue of interracial marriage was unpopular in about a third of the States at the time.

00:27 DaemonFC; Including many in the deep south where CBS chose to show the episode.

00:27 bagiraX; star trek was never "follow this one person around and explore their struggle to be their real self, look how sad and complex". it's a soap opera with a star trek theme.

00:28 arkanian; bagiraX: fuck off

00:28 bagiraX; b-b-b-but mah expression!

00:28 arkanian; lol

00:28 arkanian; i just said fuck off

00:28 arkanian; nobody says you have to

00:28 DaemonFC; Interracial marriage was illegal in fourteen States before June 12th, 1967.

00:29 DaemonFC; The law against it has only been repealed in the past few years in some of them.

00:29 DaemonFC; (Unenforceable, but still on the books until recently.)

00:29 arkanian; I loved TOS, TNG, Voyager, Enterprise and Discovery

00:29 bagiraX; what does any of this have to do with the fact that writers in hollywood are rapidly approaching a complete gridlock of value generation

00:30 bagiraX; hell doctor who may never recover

00:30 arkanian; bagiraX: do you also hate the female Doctor Who?

00:30 DaemonFC; https://calendar.eji.org/racial-injustice/may/5

00:30 TR Bot; On May 05, 1943: To Prevent Interracial Marriage, California Requires That Marriage Licenses Indicate Race

00:30 DaemonFC; California

00:30 DaemonFC; "On May 5, 1943, a new law went into effect in California, requiring that all marriage licenses indicate the race of the parties to be married. This law, passed unanimously by the all-white, all-male state legislature, was designed to help the state enforce its existing ban on interracial marriage. As California law declared at that time: no license may be issued authorizing the marriage of a white person with a Negro, mulatto, Mongolian, or member

00:30 arkanian; California in 1943

00:30 DaemonFC; of the Malay race. Any interracial couple who defied the statute, or any clerk who provided a marriage license to an interracial couple, faced a fine of up to $10,000 or up to 10 years in prison."

00:30 DaemonFC; When was it repealed?

00:31 bagiraX; arkanian: jodie whittaker? i dont dislike the actress but i think it was a serious mistake on behalf of the doctor who casters

00:31 arkanian; Germany in 1943 was pretty insane

00:31 arkanian; bagiraX: you suck

00:31 arkanian; bagiraX: Jodi Whittaker was fucking awesome as Doctor Who

00:32 arkanian; not as good as Tennant, but better than a lot of the other doctors

00:32 bagiraX; meh. if i were talented id write my own legacy instead of trying to steal someone else's and stain it with my unidenfiable preferences being shoved onto an audience that never wanted it, never asked for it, and bombed the marketing studies we tried to validate it with. in fact, i'd be expected to be fired so that the franchise could try to recover its legacy.

00:33 arkanian; bagiraX: you're dumb

00:33 bagiraX; david tennant was a good doctor

00:33 bagiraX; almost as good as jon pertwee

00:33 bagiraX; i mean none of them are tom baker

00:33 bagiraX; but i mean why even try

00:33 DaemonFC; Most bad things come from California.

00:33 arkanian; lol

00:33 DaemonFC; The land of fruits, nuts, and flakes.

00:34 arkanian; nobody is as good of a doctor as Colin Baker

00:35 bagiraX; maybe ncuti gatwa can revive it, but, i suspect it'll flop too. he's not the right typecast for it. he may be a strategic selection to confuse executives about why the show is failing.

00:36 DaemonFC; Basically, California creates racial strife and tension and does really racist shit, and really homophobic and xenophobic shit.

00:36 arkanian; The sixth doctor was one of the best

00:37 arkanian; Then David tennant

00:37 DaemonFC; And then they tell everyone else how horrible they are because California did it.

00:37 bagiraX; and Jinkx Mansoon as the master? we are surely in roger delgado's hell.

00:37 arkanian; then the chick

00:37 DaemonFC; The Chinese Exclusion Act came out of an effort to win votes in California.

00:37 DaemonFC; They wanted rid of the Chinese people.

00:37 bagiraX; john simm was an "ok" master but even he lacked the

00:37 DaemonFC; And they wanted rid of the Japanese too, wanted them in camps.

00:37 bagiraX; whatever it was that roger delgado brought to the role

00:37 DaemonFC; And the war was the excuse they needed.

00:37 DaemonFC; California has the most vile and pernicious vagrancy laws in America.

00:38 bagiraX; DaemonFC: where are you? alabama?

00:38 DaemonFC; And California produced, with State money, propaganda videos for Health class, telling kids that gay men were child molesters who would abduct and kill them.

00:38 bagiraX; oh n/m you already said its illinois

00:38 DaemonFC; Then in 2008, California's voters, mostly nignogs (58% Yes), voted to ban gay marriage in their shitty Constitution.

00:38 arkanian; Sarah Jane was the hottest Doctor Who companion (besides Rose)

00:38 DaemonFC; Fuck California.

00:39 DaemonFC; Fall into the ocean!

00:39 DaemonFC; Every horrid thing that California bitches about, they've done, originated, and/or are currently doing or trying to.

00:39 DaemonFC; It's classic Projection.

00:39 MinceR; (cat) https://ircz.de/p/24042421

00:39 TR Bot; WHOOPSIE

00:39 arkanian; California is trying to be better

00:40 DaemonFC; They accuse others of being everything they ARE.

00:40 DaemonFC; Including vile homophobes.

00:40 DaemonFC; It's gaslighting.

00:40 arkanian; lol

00:40 arkanian; Indiana used to tell students that gay and black people had AIDS

00:40 arkanian; so....

00:40 DaemonFC; Trump was trying to make California less awful.

00:41 DaemonFC; Hopefully, if he wins, he'll de-fang CARB again.

00:41 MinceR; ooh, state fight!

00:41 MinceR;

00:41 DaemonFC; An set fuel economy standards to something realistic.

00:41 arkanian; Trump needs to be executed as a traitor

00:41 MinceR; he would be, if there was rule of law

00:42 arkanian; Sucking Putins dick needs to be considered treason

00:42 DaemonFC; The Democrats plot to force horrible EVs on everyone by setting gas mileage standards to a point it's impossible to comply with them.

00:42 MinceR; or at least he'd rot in prison for the rest of his life

00:42 DaemonFC; Because it's either literally impossible or nobody would want to drive one, or it would price everyone out of being able to own a vehicle.

00:42 DaemonFC; There's a lot of reasons why Joe Biden is doing badly in the polls.

00:43 DaemonFC; Including 4-5 points behind Trump in all of the swing states.

00:43 arkanian; If every car driver had to pay for environmental damage, there would be no car drivers

00:43 DaemonFC; Because everyone has seen how bad the Democrats are, laid bare.

00:43 DaemonFC; And they can't hide it anymore.

00:43 DaemonFC; Because they've made it nearly impossible to afford to live, anywhere.

00:43 DaemonFC; Just live.

00:43 arkanian; lmao

00:44 DaemonFC; And then they coddle the terrorists protesting in favor of Hamas.

00:44 arkanian; Record unemployment under Biden

00:44 DaemonFC; When they should send the National Guard in to shoot until the crowds disperse and don't come back.

00:44 arkanian; DaemonFC: you are insane

00:44 MinceR; "No, that's you have to be very smart to do that. You got to be very smart. It's called you know what it is, called spot checking. You thinkin' about somethin' when you're talkin' about somethin', there's bop-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop and then you get back to the orig... and then you go holy shit, did you see what he did? That's um. It's called, it's called intelligence."

00:45 DaemonFC; They should have the Kent State Massacre all over again at every "encampment" where this fucking shit is happening.

00:45 DaemonFC; And never apologize for it.

00:45 DaemonFC; At least go in and send in CS gas and rubber bullets and flash bang grenages all over the place.

00:46 DaemonFC; That'll teach them something.

00:46 arkanian; DaemonFC: I would advocate sterilizing people as dumb as you but you already fuck your cousins and brothers

00:46 bagiraX; i think that would probably be the tipping point for a civil war

00:46 bagiraX; people would factionalize

00:46 DaemonFC; *grenades

00:46 bagiraX; words would start to have blurry meanings

00:46 DaemonFC; The Democrats have already ruined this country.

00:46 DaemonFC; Someone needs to bring them to heel.

00:46 arkanian; LOL

00:47 bagiraX; we do need new parties

00:47 DaemonFC; If that means going in and clobbering all these fucking whiney ass bitches at the college campuses, 90% of whom are not even students, so be it.

00:47 arkanian; DaemonFC would shoot any gay people who were gay in public because he is a pick me

00:47 MinceR; the "republicans" would bring this country to heel

00:47 MinceR; putler's heel.

00:48 bagiraX; both the left and right need new parties. they aren't identifiable to voters anymore and they've got about 3 more elections of choosing between two people nobody at all actually wants before regular blue collar folks start dismantling their local party presences

00:48 DaemonFC; Hillary Clinton already popularized that, you know, MinceR

00:48 DaemonFC; When she said in a campaign speech she wanted to bring America "to heel".

00:48 arkanian; "I'm gay but I'm not one of those faggots who kiss in public. Shoot them" -DaemonFC

00:48 bagiraX; in any case the kids at kent state were a different breed than these kids

00:49 DaemonFC; I don't think that people who kiss in public should be shot.

00:49 bagiraX; these kids have very little character

00:49 MinceR; should they be hanged?

00:49 DaemonFC; I don't even think that people who fuck in public should be arrested.

00:49 DaemonFC; They're not hurting anyone.

00:49 bagiraX; the kent state kids resisted soldiers at gunpoint holding flowers in their hands

00:49 arkanian; unless they are black

00:49 bagiraX; they knew what they were doing

00:49 DaemonFC; [18:48] <bagiraX> in any case the kids at kent state were a different breed than these kids

00:50 DaemonFC; Yes, at Kent State, they didn't deserve it.

00:50 bagiraX; these ones are smart enough to do like crosstraining with old panthers and experienced movement folks, but they dont have the value system drivers that the kent state kids did

00:50 DaemonFC; They were protesting a war that was very wrong against people who did not even threaten us.

00:50 DaemonFC; That's very different than the ones today supporting Hamas terrorists.

00:50 bagiraX; no its not

00:50 bagiraX; DaemonFC: you dont need to have an opinion about anything. Alot of people should, but you're not one of them. You talk too much.

00:51 DaemonFC; They should be sent to live in some third world shithole where they have no hope of ever getting back to the United States (the ones protesting against Israel and in favor of Hamas).

00:51 DaemonFC; We should load them on a boat and let them off in fucking Somalia.

00:51 bagiraX; those kids are not protesting in support of hamas they're protesting against human rights violations, you're just too stuck reading fox news article titles to notice

00:51 bagiraX; because you form shit opinions with a shit mind based on shit research

00:51 DaemonFC; We should let them off in Yemen.

00:52 DaemonFC; Let them see what life in a Muslim country is like.

00:52 DaemonFC; And how many of the trannies live.

00:52 bagiraX; DaemonFC: you mean qatar? most americans would find qatar to be a dream.

00:52 DaemonFC; It'll be an experiment.

00:52 bagiraX; DaemonFC: once again you didn't do your research and look stupid because you spoke. see the recurring theme?

00:52 arkanian; you can be against genocide and not support terrorists

00:53 bagiraX; ^

1 AM, May 9

01:04 bagiraX; yeah nothing speaks of the quality of one's character when they advocate the military targeting of non-combatant men, women and children instead of the opposing military

01:04 bagiraX; DaemonFC: in your next life i hope you're reincarnated as a palestianian girl who has to grow up in gaza

01:12 TR Bot; Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal - A Family Dispute

01:13 DaemonFC; We live in a society that gives women whatever they want, at the expense of men.

01:13 DaemonFC; And then they still have a license to bitch and moan about how it's not good enough.

01:14 DaemonFC; Women have even had decent sex toys forever now.

01:14 DaemonFC; Peg Bundy always said she could just "replace Al with something that runs on batteries" and that was in the 80s.

01:14 MinceR; hungary has a government that practically owns everything in the country, and they still bitch and moan about how they're oppressed by the "left-liberals"

01:14 DaemonFC; And have you seen the sex toys they make for men? They're ridiculous. Even the expensive ones just make a hell of a lot of noise and then break.

01:14 DaemonFC; Nobody gives us anything, even a decent orgasm.

01:15 DaemonFC; And we're supposed to have all the really shitty and dangerous jobs, and pay all the bills, and hold the world up, and not complain.

01:15 MinceR; they've taken over radio entirely, there's maybe 1 tv channel that doesn't just regurgitate their propaganda as "news", i'm not sure if there are any actual newspapers left

01:15 DaemonFC; And we can't even get a $200 automated dick sucker from Amazon that works right.

01:15 DaemonFC; Sad, very sad.

01:15 MinceR; and they still whine about a "left-leaning media domination"

01:16 MinceR; maybe you'd like it here.

01:16 arkanian; DaemonFc should be deported to Russia

01:16 MinceR; though i haven't yet figured out the logic behind which immigrants are seen as acceptable.

01:16 MinceR; because there's no fucking logic to it.

01:17 DaemonFC; MinceR: I would not like it in Hungary.

01:17 DaemonFC; Because you say they have door dingers and yet it is illegal to shoot them and claim self-defense.

03:46 bagiraX; keep two machines of the same motherboard going, when its time to flash, if you fuck it up, just swap, boot, swap, flash

03:47 bagiraX; i did that in college

03:47 bagiraX; the oss lab let me take home some old beater machines of the same model

03:47 Sompi; I think it just bricked its CMOS because the SETUP program is so buggy, and it probably doesn't have any error handling for incorrect settings

03:47 bagiraX; in exchange for flashing all the machines on the floor

03:47 Sompi; Removing the CMOS battery probably fixes it

03:48 schestowitz; intel and amd have troublke

03:48 schestowitz; maybe they reckon MSFT can 'save' them

03:48 schestowitz; with HEY HI "PCs"

03:48 bagiraX; amd is in good shape

03:48 schestowitz; see latest report

03:48 bagiraX; intel is suspended entirely by aggressive contracting right now

03:48 schestowitz; weeks or days ago

03:48 Sompi; Surprisingly many modern PCs are like this. Their SETUP programs are definitely not meant to be accessed by the "stupid end-user"

03:49 bagiraX; schestowitz: how did this thing with lozza start?

03:49 schestowitz; amd had a temporary surge

03:49 schestowitz; bagiraX: let's stay on tech

03:49 schestowitz; but it started like 14 years ago

03:49 Sompi; That one doesn't even tell what key to press to enter the setup. I just randomly smashed F2, F8, F10 and F12 at the same time and it may also have corrupted something

03:49 schestowitz; and he expressed sexual interest in me

03:50 schestowitz; about AMD

03:50 schestowitz; see their latest results

03:50 schestowitz; it's not good at all

03:50 schestowitz; AMD will probably have layoffs soon

03:50 schestowitz; like, the next few months

03:51 schestowitz; put that next to Elephant Man

03:51 bagiraX; never underestimate a backburner project like that

03:52 Sompi; "Nice". I opened the bottom cover but I don't see a CMOS battery or a reset jumper...

03:52 bagiraX; ill eventually be too old to work like i do and have more time to polish it up

03:54 DaemonFC; I would say that Lobsta has a raging hard-on for schestowitz but that was put in a biohazard bag and disposed of at great expense to the public.

03:55 Sompi; schestowitz: seems that to access the CMOS battery I would need to open the whole computer. Just opening the access lid from the bottom side is not enough, it only reveals the RAM and hard disk

03:57 schestowitz; yes

03:59 schestowitz; i explained this years ago

03:59 schestowitz; short story:

03:59 schestowitz; i keep secret what needs secrecy

04:00 schestowitz; transparency with redaction works too sometimes

04:00 schestowitz; names hidden

04:00 schestowitz; or some info hidden

04:00 schestowitz; those who can 'unmask' don't matter

04:00 schestowitz; because they know it all _regardless_

04:01 schestowitz; bagiraX: making you angry is the goal

04:01 schestowitz; or means towards the goal

04:01 schestowitz; using temper/emotion

04:01 schestowitz; that's an old spy trick

04:01 bagiraX; not really

04:01 bagiraX; its not universally applicable

04:01 schestowitz; not

04:01 schestowitz; i agree

04:01 schestowitz; but they try to make people snap

04:01 schestowitz; and then they go

04:01 bagiraX; like me, i get madder than hell, but i never lose control

04:02 schestowitz; "Oh!!! SEE? SEE! TOLD YA!"

04:02 bagiraX; people with big anger don't work like that man

04:02 bagiraX; weak bitches, sure, because they dont have big anger, they just are loud and angry because they have no self control

04:03 bagiraX; people with genuine, real anger are not going to be baited like that

04:04 bagiraX; it's a poor moment of judgment to bait some types of people

04:04 bagiraX; everyone thinks they're the real deal

04:05 bagiraX; they strut around and provoke and taunt and enjoy their little tiffs

04:07 bagiraX; so they avoid things like that

04:07 bagiraX; not because they're worried someone will do it to them

04:07 bagiraX; but because it's so easy for them to do

04:08 bagiraX; conflicts lead to other conflicts too

04:09 arkanian; :/

04:09 schestowitz; anyway, back to UEFI

04:10 schestowitz; it was promoted all along bby Microsoft moles

08:00 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Amazon review time.

08:00 DaemonFC; > 1 out of the 3 coil packs failed a year later. Ended up causing a misfire on two cylinders and fouling the plugs on cylinders 3 and 6, and my check engine light to flash. Car would not accelerate into 3rd gear, and honestly I about crapped myself because it caused a backfire and made me think I'd blown the gear in the transmission as the failure of the coil pack occurred right when the shift point into 3rd should have happened.

08:00 DaemonFC; > Amazon returned the money paid for that coil pack after I returned it under the AC Delco warranty.

08:00 DaemonFC; > Sadly, QA doesn't seem to be great on these considering they are OE parts. Replaced that coil pack with a Carquest Premium and changed the spark plugs.

08:00 DaemonFC; > Since the price went up on these AC Delco E530C from a little over $30 to over $52 in-between May 2023 and May 2024, I would not purchase these coil packs again. It seems Delco is slipping.

13:43 Sompi; Seems that most laptops that are made after UEFI became a thing are more or less boot-locked to Windows

13:43 Sompi; Not only in the way that the default CMOS settings prevent booting other operating systems

13:44 Sompi; But also they have (probably intentional) bugs that make them basically hard-coded to boot only Windows

13:45 Sompi; It is a real thing and pre-UEFI laptops are nothing like this. They boot everything you throw to them

13:46 schestowitz; this was the intention all along

13:57 Sompi; Those ACPI bugs have been a nuisance since ACPI was a new thing. That's why most hobbyist operating systems don't use ACPI. Almost every motherboard requires workarounds or the system will not work correctly or at all

13:59 Sompi; And with many new motherboards and laptops even the BIOS data table is implemented wrongly. Probably intentionally

2 PM, May 9

14:00 schestowitz; Sompi: i will write something fast about it

14:00 Sompi; Surprisingly many modern BIOSes detect USB stick as a "floppy drive" when they boot from the USB stick. It breaks everything

14:01 Sompi; They give the USB stick device number 0x00, which is against the BIOS specification

14:02 Sompi; The sign bit should be set

14:04 Sompi; The problem is that real floppy disks have soft geometry, whereas USB storage sticks have hard geometry

14:04 Sompi; So when the operating system boots from a floppy, it usually has the information about the disk geometry in the boot sector

14:05 Sompi; But when it boots from a USB storage stick, it needs to get the information via BIOS call int13,ah=08

14:06 Sompi; If the BIOS lies the operating system that it's been booted from a floppy, when in reality it's been booted from a media that has a hard geometry, then the operating system assumes a wrong disk geometry and cannot read the disk at all

14:07 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights

14:07 Sompi; Most mainstream operating systems work around this by having different bootloaders for floppies and USB storage devices, which of course reduces portability
