heh i got sites barely work with firefox/chrome unless updated..let alone web+
<nielx[m]>
this is so interesting to me. It is not as if the web standard is changing every two weeks
<nielx[m]>
as if everybody is building their web apps around the quirks in the latest version of webkit
<rennj>
looks like we are head to the monopoly ville..if chrome is only game in town
<rennj>
least firefox97 works better than firefox94...

imagine if the power company would start to fiddel with the voltage or the phase or the frequency, starting to include all kind of modulated power stream requireing you to change your electricity entry box every 2 month, well that is the telecom and software industry.

<rennj>
kalios or something
<rennj>
java phone seems like
<rennj>
30.00 a month of unlimited txt/talk, 5GB of data..
<rennj>
25.00 per month if you pay for whole year at once
<rennj>
which i could do, but i doubt ill keep this flip-phone for long
<AlienSoldier>
i still have a northen telecom desk phone. I can't stand those cellular phone, flip or not.
<AlienSoldier>
and when i am not home, magic! nobody is bothering me.

samsung and crapple can pound sand

and you know another truth everyone still refuse, a crank drill is way supperior to a power drill
<rennj>
power drill on drained battery anyway

<AlienSoldier>
yes for tick ones, but then i use my electric drill press.
<AlienSoldier>
but i guess i could fit a crank on that one also as it is demultiplied by the belt.
<AlienSoldier>
could even operate it with my foot
<phschafft>
if you try to get thru 22mm of hardened steel to build something for your pets... you are happy with a power tool. ;)
hooway has quit []
<AlienSoldier>
but i use metal as the last hope, i mainly use wood.
<phschafft>
there are laws ;)
<AlienSoldier>
probably :)
<phschafft>
sometimes it's not up to you.
<phschafft>
wood is surely a nice material.
<phschafft>
in my city home we have a lot of wooden stuff.
<phschafft>
and I think the only non-wooden big object in my room is my 19" rack.
<rennj>
heh rack at home
<rennj>
a little client / server
<phschafft>
actually, hardly.
<rennj>
you need a whole 72" rack.
<phschafft>
power supply, light control, audio/PA, ...
<rennj>
yeah yeah heard it all before...
<rennj>
the flood light and camera system wont run itself
<rennj>
what about the pool!
<rennj>
got to have heater and pumps on circuit
<rennj>
will need a camera for the pool!
<phschafft>
while I work with media, I'm not in the porno industry.
<rennj>
people that can afford the pool, can afford the rack and camera gear...
<rennj>
and the flood lights...got to show off for the neighbors...swimming in the dark!

how are you going to show off to the people, that life is going swimmingly

what i may be doing is to finally finish my atv to electric conversion and run it in the street even if illegal. It would still be more legal than to polute.

I'm on my third EV. Would never go back to gas

if your daily commute is doable
<AlienSoldier>
yes, in my case it is doable
<AlienSoldier>
and the longest i do is 100KM and i would not mind having to charge in the middle as i don't do that travel every day
<rennj>
well i use to have 2hours+ of driving per day for daily commute...
x10z has joined #haiku

i suppose an EV could handle that short less than 200mile drive
<rennj>
but i would have to keep it charged/top upped like some idiot

the infrastructure isnt in place yet
<rennj>
nothing like wasting 2hour per day in traffic!

my 24year old volvo can handle couple more years

24 year old volvo, 22 year old bicycle, 8 year old phone, 6 year old laptop...see where im going
<rennj>
my bicycle was top end trek mtb you could buy in 2000
<rennj>
trek 8500.. $2000 in the year 2000
<AlienSoldier>
... like an average of a 17 year old wife :P
<rennj>
now it would cost like $4000.00 for same model
<rennj>
i always wanted to live in bicycle friendly commuter town
