     @djsumdog At least I'm glad to see that Japan isn't the worst when it cums to the covAIDS scamdemic.

     @djsumdog Well, there have never been any mandates, but each company decides its own rules, which are all identical 99% of the time anyway.
     Whether they're enforced or not depends on the employer or employee, depending on who genuinely believes in the covAIDS cult.
     
     So sometimes you have to have a face diaper on during job interviews, sometimes they even ask you to put it on during remote job interviews (which makes it extra ridiculous), most of the time they don't care either way.
     
     When it comes to employees, most stores don't care if you wear one or not, but some stores will literally kick you out or deny you service if you don't put on a face diaper, which is literally illegal according to both the artificial "law" and the constitution, and even come with a PENALty of up to 3 years in prison + 5 million yen fine if they force people to do something against their will, but even if I point that out to them, they don't care because apparently their own made up rules go above government made up rules, even though they're those same people tend to be the biggest bootlickers in the entire world.
     
     I've been to Akihabara and Shinjuku over the weekend, I noticed only a few maskless Japanese, and only a few masked tourists.
     Most Japanese were masked, whereas most foreign tourists were maskless.
     All the otaku-related stores would kick you out right at the frontdoor, they even have some elderly at the door to force you to put on a face diaper.
     All the electronics-related stores on the other hand don't give a fuck.
     Restaurants might or might not care, some do and most don't.
     
     RNG "test" which is not a test or a proof of being 3 times lethally injected is only required if you fly into the country, though I heard they're dropping that one soon if not already, because last time I checked was last month.
     Last year's winter Comiket required you to have both, but they dropped that in favor for contact information (name, address, and phone number usually).
     But other than that, no such requirements anywhere.

     What is the situation in Japan currently? It seemed like it was the country that held off the longest on going along with the scamdemic. I know James Corbett lives there and has reported some stuff early on, but I haven't seen much lately.
     
     Were/are there vax mandates for work or activities? Where there mask mandates and how long did they last? Did any regions not have lockdowns (In the US, North Dakota was the only state that didn't have any closures/lockdowns/mandates. Georgia/Florida had very short lockdowns of ~3 months)

     @ryo @djsumdog Still, I don't know if being there for the next one is going to be a good idea, because it's a small country with no land borders, and with a resistance of like, three people. And with no guns, though really, when it comes to that parameter, there are only two countries in the world, USA and United States of No-Guns Cucks.

     @TerminalAutism @djsumdog I wouldn't say that the USSA is anything better, considering still having its entry restrictions up, even though you can bypass them by simply flying into Mexico, and walking across the border.
     With Japan you can at least enter with a fraudulent RNG "test" which is not a test alone, because all the customs care about is the piece of paper (or screen on a Satanphone), whereas in order to get into the USSA you'll need both that fake "test" which is not a test, and proof of being lethally injected enough times.
     
     And Japan doesn't ban guns outright, but the requirements to even be allowed to have one are so ridiculously strict, it's basically the same as outright banning guns.

     @ryo @djsumdog It's better if you want to have guns and are already there. From what I'm told, most places had basically no restrictions. Though it is also under heavy attack, it's the country that they want to tear down the most. On a federal level, it's basically under direct UN control, and the UN is controlled by the WEF.
     
     I heard on /pol/ that the requirement will be lifted on the 23rd of January, though of course, I know that it's silly to be optimistic about anything these days. Also, I read that airports in places like Florida and Texas don't even check.

     I don't trust these dates anymore.
     They promised so many dates to end the scamdemic narrative, yet they still continue on with it to this day.
     Even more so if you still somehow "Trust the Plan™" for whatever reason.
     Seriously, those boomers are still waiting for "the storm is upon us" to appear on Shitter.

     What the actual … :blobcatnomouth: ?

     Wow that’s crazy. Is it different between cities and rural areas? In the Southern US, everything is pretty much 98% back to normal. You see under 1% mask usage, maybe 2% at the most in some places in Tennessee, Georgia and Florida (and I’m sure others). No mask requirements anywhere (except maybe the doctor or dentist? I dunno, haven’t been in a while). I can’t speak for the bigger cities; left Chicago in 2021. It was a nightmare there. I never wore a mask and drove to Indiana to shop or ordered groceries online. But my friends tell me it’s pretty much back to normal, so ?

     That’s why that e-mail was so weird. Some trade shows still have weird vax or test mandates, but most don’t care. There is a swing dance organization in my state that’s currently being sued for trying to enforce the clot-shot in order to dance (which I think is illegal in TN due to legislation passed last year, but is not enforced).

     PyCascades is way in the north west in the super blue area. I don’t talk to my Seattle friends much so I don’t know what it’s like there.

     @djsumdog I don't think there's much difference between the city and the countryside in that aspect, other than of course there are way more boomers and kids in the countryside, and way more middle aged people in the cities.
     
     But in many cases, you'll see "please wear a mask" sign or "masks and alcohol spray is required in order to enter the store", but for the most part this is just to avoid standing out from the crowd, because the nail that stands out will be hammered down.
     
     But even those with these signs and announcements over the speakers, there's no real enforcement 99% of the time.
     It's just pure virtue signalling, has been the case in 2020, 2021, and 2022.
     You might find an occasional bootlicker who will actually enforce it, but it's practically uncommon.

     My sister recently left the country for missionary work and I asked her about this. She's un-jabbed and she told me she didn't have any issues reentering by airport (maybe it's different for citizens and visitors?). Her husband needed one for a work trip to Canada and he got one .. cause he's moron ?

     @djsumdog @TerminalAutism From what I heard, the USSA only upholds these restrictions to temporary visitors, not for citizens and green card holders.
     And the whole point was from the perspective of temporarily visiting a country.

     @lina @djsumdog @Burn @ryo I can tell, because I can tell that you remember Slayers. And the 2000s were indeed the best times, and things were mostly okay until the beginning of the 2010s (the 90s were also good). Even for media, people can argue that the 90s were better, or maybe the 80s, but the fact is that we didn't have access to a lot of it until the second half of the 2000s.

     @xianc78 @ryo @djsumdog Kinda pointless without ammo. I do kinda want a 3D printer, though, it would be very useful. May get one eventually and maybe print myself a Dactyl Manuform ( https://github.com/abstracthat/dactyl-manuform ), and maybe some Void switches ( https://github.com/riskable/void_switch ) depending on how good they are. Maybe some controller and arcade stick parts too. Infinite possibilities, I guess. As long as I have infinite ideas, and I do.

     @lina @djsumdog @Burn @ryo I was late to discover a lot of things as well. Generally a generation behind on consoles. Plenty of my favorite things were made before I was born as well, or I just didn't have access to them until much later. Nostalgia isn't much of a factor in my case.

     @ryo @lina @Burn @djsumdog 2006 was the pinnacle of technology. Computers were pretty damn good (you could already get quad-core CPUs and 8 GB of RAM, maybe even 16 GB if you were crazy, and you didn't need it all that much because the software was so much lighter and the internet wasn't shit), most people were getting good internet connections by then, and the iPhone didn't exist yet. Torrenting was getting big, so actually getting older media was becoming easier.
     
     Also, fansubbing was getting big. Not relevant for people that are actually Japanese, but in the west, we didn't have access to a lot of shows for a long time. So, regardless of when shows were made, the second half of the 2000s was when a lot of people actually watched them, because that's when it became available to them. Same goes for games, that's when we were reaching post-scarcity. The PS3/360/Wii were definitely inferior to previous consoles, especially when a lot of stuff came out on PC anyway, and there weren't as many great games as there were before, but there was still a lot of good stuff. Hell, there were even games that came out on both PS3 and PS4 basically at the same time.
     
     If I could go back in time and freeze technological development, I would go back to 2006, and freeze it right there, and I feel like basically nothing would be lost. Almost everything good that came out since would work just fine on that technology. Hell, the computers that I use now are less powerful than quite a few computers already around at that time.

     And you can still do well with this configuration today if you choose your software wisely.
     Since I switched from i3 to dwm, I never manage to exceed 4 GiB, sometimes if I have lots of crap opened up I'd exceed 3 GiB.
     In contrast, on i3 on the same 2007 laptop, I'd easily go beyond 5 GiB while doing the exact same type of stuff on it.

     @ryo @Burn @djsumdog @lina The point is that at the time, there was already hardware that is still good even by my current standards. And back then it was even better, because you didn't need it nearly as much. Now I'm constantly swapping to disk even with 8 GB of RAM because web browsers are HORRIBLE. And every month or two, my system freezes completely because I have no swap left, and there is no way to even switch to another TTY and kill a program.

     @TerminalAutism @Burn @djsumdog @lina I had that problem under i3, not under dwm.
     Another solution is to swap webpages to either lightweight frontends or TUI apps as much as possible.
     Like for Pleroma I swap between the web interface and tut quite a bit, because while tut is without question superior, the it's not as easy to make a distinction between notifications I've already read and notifications I have yet to read.
     
     And since most followers are from either Europe or America, my notifications section is almost always filled up every single night by somewhere between 20 and 120 ones.
     
     And the massive raise of Cuckflare has motivated me to dump most websites, and it got to the point now that every time I visit a website that's not owned by 076, DigDeeper, Unix Sheikh, or anyone else who's vocally against it with massive amounts of suspicion ready to click away the moment the Block Cuckflare extension shows up.
     
     Sometimes it even seems like Big Tech treats us dissidents much better than most of those so-called "free speech activist" and "privacy advocate" types ironically.

     @digdeeper @Burn @TerminalAutism @djsumdog @lina 2 GiB is pretty easy to exceed, considering the browser bloat.
     Them alone require at least 1 GiB, it's fucking insane...

     @digdeeper @ryo @Burn @djsumdog @lina It's definitely enough. I used a desktop from 2008 with 4 GB of RAM for a year, a few years ago, and it was fine. The biggest struggle is always web browsers. I open a lot of tabs, and sometimes multiple windows, and I don't even like closing browsers, because sometimes they just break the session and I lose everything, so I have to keep backing everything up every time I close them. Probably going to outsource that to an external program. It doesn't help that they are all about different things, and there is no way to organize them. Except maybe with some extension, but that's not ideal, I want to keep as much as possible out of the browser.
     
     Anyway, my newest hardware I think it my laptop from 2015, and it's about on part with my 2008 ThinkPad. So, not much of a difference. High-end 2006 hardware still beats the main computers that I use now. Hell, back then, even Apple had good hardware that was maybe worth considering. You could get a quad-core PowerPC desktop with 16 GB of RAM. Decent computers were already at the "I can use this forever" level.

     @ryo @digdeeper @Burn @djsumdog @lina It's absurd. My first computer (that was only for myself and not my mother's) had what? 0.5 GB of RAM? And that was enough for browsing the web and using GUI programs, and playing a bunch of games. By the time I got 8 GB of RAM, in the late 2000s or very early 2010s, that was so much RAM that I thought I would possibly never need more. But now I occasionally freeze my computer from using all 8 GB of RAM and all 8 GB of swap. And that's with auto tab discard. Even inactive tabs use a shitload of RAM somehow. And then I end up opening two or three browser windows, for different things, to try to keep things at least a little organized (this software really gets in the way of my productivity, because I have so much shit to look at and it's all mixed and things get lost constantly and I just forget about them, and there are no features in browsers to manage all of my stuff, and sessions are also unreliable, and every single window seems to use over 1 GB of RAM even with nothing in it), and that's where it really gets out of control. Sometimes I close a window, to free some RAM, and it starts using a lot more RAM instead of less, and sometimes that's when it freezes completely, presumably with both the kernel and X stuck in swap. All that not to mention programs that I stopped using because they had giant memory leaks. FUCK! WHAT A NIGHTMARE!

     @ryo @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina I don't remember how much the first one that I used had (I don't think I have ever known), only the first one that I owned. I started using computers when I was like, 4 or 5, but I only owned my own when I was 12. Now my main computers still have 8. It should be an impossibly huge amount, but it's just barely enough to function, with the current absolute state of the web.

     @TerminalAutism @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina I recently managed to get my hands on a ThinkPad which I got from a junkware store, I fixed most of its problems, and it got 4 GiB of RAM.
     I have yet to purchase a battery and charger for it, as it won't even work without a charger, and my other ThinkPad is already occupying that charger.
     But I'm curious to see how well it'll be as a stationary laptop (it's far too heavy and far too big to carry around everywhere).
     But the build quality is so great, you could perhaps even knock somebody out with that thing.

     I might theoretically use even less RAM if I'd switch to Pale Meme, but I don't really like the shift+scroll behavior.
     Only if that would have been fixed, and maybe a good plugin to make it usable using Vim keybindings, I'd be more than willing to give it a try again.

     @ryo @digdeeper @Burn @djsumdog @lina Well, being in the terminal shouldn't make a difference at all. GUI's have existed for a very long time. If anything, command lines should have graphics by now, like in old Lisp systems. GUI vs terminal is a silly distinction that only exists because the way that people think about software was completely shaped by the shit operating systems that became the standard.

     @TerminalAutism @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina All GUI toolkits in current year suck, that's the problem.
     GTK and Qt are both bloat, GTK2 is nice, but documentation is (deliberately) lacking nowadays, GTK3 and GTK4 are more like "let's turn the desktop into something more phone-like, shall we?", Qt uses C++ instead of C, and all the other toolkits are either lacking features, or rely on either of the 2 big ones, or have barely any documentation, or use some weird language they force you to use with it, or worse of all, it's Java.
     
     Also, observing memory usage, there certainly is a difference between GUI and TUI.
     Plus a TUI has the added benefit of not requiring you to switch between a keyboard and mouse all the time.

     @ryo @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina Still, it's not about GUIs. The potato computers that we had in the 90s ran GUIs just fine. There were computers in the 70s that ran GUIs more than well enough.
     
     "Plus a TUI has the added benefit of not requiring you to switch between a keyboard and mouse all the time."
     Wrong, because GUI programs can support the keyboard just fine (some of them, like Emacs, or even GVim, are programs that work the same way regardless of whether they are running a GUI toolkit or ncurses, and there are GUI programs that are based on older curses programs, but still mostly work the same way).
     
     They just don't most of the time, because they suck, because they are designed to be like Windows. Though even then, you can open menus with alt + a letter and then select options with another letter, it's not that different from bindings that you would find in Emacs, except it's more visual and has better discoverability. The problem with GUI toolkits is mostly with movement. Changing bindings is not very intuitive (not sure if it's even possible in all of them), and there are no default bindings for movement without the arrow keys, and moving between different panes can be extremely clunky.
     
     At the same time, most TUI programs have basically no user interface because again, they are designed like complete shit. And most of them don't support the mouse, and what you said goes both ways. Sometimes you want to use the mouse, and then it's a pain to go back to the keyboard. Both should be supported.
     
     And as far as bindings go, those programs tend to go with either Emacs bindings or Vim bindings. Neither of them are very good. There is no keybinding standard that is actually designed with ergonomics in mind. It doesn't help that keyboard layouts are almost all shit. The only layout with a sane design philosophy is BEAKL ( https://ieants.cc/beakl/beakl.php ), and that's very niche, and there are multiple versions, so it will probably never be in anything by default. Also, I think the Vim way of doing modal editing may be silly. We should have regular keybindings, and then people can set up their systems or keyboard firmwares to make modifier keys be toggled when pressed, and maybe have lights in their bars to display when they are active. That way all programs can be modal, or not, depending on preference.
     
     Anyway, this is all an artificial division coming from the fact that terminal emulators exist, when they shouldn't. You can have a command line that is a real programming language and that has full access to graphics. Look at TempleOS, it has a HolyC command line with multiplexing and with graphics, including 3D models, and displays everything using markup language, that can be used to create links that you can follow. Look at Lisp Machines. Look at the McCLIM toolkit's Listener REPL. Here is an example, a video showing off Listener: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=kfBmRsPRdGg
     
     It's a command line, and it's a REPL for a real programming language, and it has graphics. You can draw images in it, display images, and list files kinda like ls, except they have icons, and they are clickable. Commands can have interactive prompts. Everything is clickable. You can also draw objects and give them return values or make them run functions when clicked. I only don't use it because it's underdeveloped, because no one gives a shit about it. Just the scrolling is enough to know that, it's very slow. But the point is, terminal vs GUI is a retarded distinction that comes from Windows and Unix. From dinosaur computing that unfortunately never went extinct, and all the GUIs are still mostly just what was trendy 40 fucking years ago, and the world hasn't recovered since.
     
     All programs should have graphics, all programs should have menus, all programs should support both the mouse and the keyboard, and all programs should have a command line interface for when you don't want to dig through menus or remember some obscure keybinding.
     
     Basically, everyone is wrong and always will be. Even the debates that people have are based on dumb categories that are artificial and don't work. I think this is the work of ideological thinking. People can't think outside of these boxes, these dumb categories generated by dumb points of reference and senses of normality. The allegory of the cave comes to mind once again.
     
     In a perfect world, this post would not exist.

     Out of those, only XMPP, IRC, and (kinda) ICQ still exist, although ICQ has always been filled with Russian sex babe spambots.

     @ryo @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina Can you still run GNOME 1 and KDE 1? I know that TDE (Trinity Desktop Environment) exists. That one I think is based on KDE3. You can also still use LXDE, and that's GTK2.

     @TerminalAutism @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina MATE is Gnome 2, LXDE is its own thing, though based on GTK.
     As for KDE 1 and 2, there have actually been KDE Restoration Projects to celebrate KDE's 20th anniversary back in 2016:

     @lina @djsumdog @Burn @digdeeper @ryo I was using Pidgin earlier this year, for XMPP. That one is very classic. I stopped because it had a giant memory leak. I blamed the browser for a while, but then one day I closed everything and my RAM was still almost maxed out. Turns out that it was Pidgin, it was maxing out my 8 GB of RAM and almost maxed out the 8 B of swap too. Then I got rid of it replaced it with Gajim, which took 30 seconds to open because of Python, but then it broke on an update, and now I use Profanity. They are all horrendous, frankly. There are no good chat clients.

     @TerminalAutism @djsumdog @Burn @digdeeper @ryo gajim seems to be the best for me so far due to what i want from xmpp, but never had an issue with pidgin in terms of memoery or with gajim being slow to start

     @lina @djsumdog @Burn @TerminalAutism @digdeeper Currently using Profanity.
     The only thing I have left to fix is the ability to get messages while I was offline, because right now I have to open Gajim to see all the messages sent to me while I was gone, close it, and continue on in Profanity, which is rather overkill.

     @lina @djsumdog @Burn @TerminalAutism @digdeeper The other issue with Profanity is that I can't shift+enter to send multi line messages, but I can live with that.
     And if I have to send in multiple lines, I'll just draft my messages in Vim, then copy/paste the entire thing into Profanity.

     @ryo @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina MATE uses GTK3, though. By the way, one think I like about MATE is how the file manager lets you set a background picture. That should be in everything, but no, software can't have features anymore.

     @TerminalAutism @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina I know, though at the beginning they sticked to GTK2, but then these fuckers decided to go to GTK3 some years later.

     @ryo @lina @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog to me that just works, on Profanity. Never had to do anything.

     @TerminalAutism @Burn @digdeeper @djsumdog @lina Maybe some config issue on my end then?
     Mind to share the output of yours in a DM or something (and of course don't forget to strip out all the private information if any)?

     @TerminalAutism @lina @Burn @djsumdog @ryo You can try Psi+ still, which is probably the "most developed".

     @digdeeper @Burn @djsumdog @lina @ryo Maybe I'll try. But to me, reliability is the #1 priority. I want it to work, and Profanity has worked, and I got used to it, so I'm reluctant to switch at this point unless it breaks. Also, I think OpenBSD doesn't have Psi in their repos for some reason, so I can't use it on every system. Unless I build it, but that's something I avoid as much as possible, other than a few ports.
