| schestowitz | Hi, it's midnight here, Friday. Time for community Q & A. :D | Jan 07 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| schestowitz | >> Last I checked (IRS is always behind), 95% of the money comes from | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> corporations. Simon did not even bother refuting this, he just got | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> all upset about me pointing that out. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > At the moment the majority of funding to OSI comes from sponsorships by ~50 companies, of various shape, size and form. That's something we want to change, adding more funding sources, including individuals and grants from different sorts of institutions. It will not happen overnight though, it'll take time. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | OK, I am glad we agree on how money is being used and taken by OSI. So I did not get any facts wrong AFAICT. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> I welcomed you when you came to OSI. I even got flak for that. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > I know, I noticed and appreciated the welcome message. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | Glad. I want to work diplomatically. The attacks on RMS last March were the opposite of that. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> You did come from the COMMUNITY. I hope you can repair the OSI, but | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> I dread its current trajectory. The less relevant the OSI becomes, | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> the less the corporations will need to "support" it. And this is | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> how popular movements get 'defused'. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > We'll start new projects and programs soon. I hope we'll get judged over more concrete actions than just a blog post. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | Excellent! | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> Let's not inflate accusations against me, either. Straw man | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> arguments are unhelpful. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > I haven't accused you of anything. If you felt I have, I'm sorry: I had no intention to. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | OK, thanks for clarifying. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> GitHub is the #1 threat at the moment (I explained the reasons many | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> times before). | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > Noted. I'll look on your site for your reasons why you consider GH the #1 threat instead of others like the efforts to destroy the Open Source Definition by shared source companies or patent-asserting behemoths openly hostile to the OSD. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | 'My' account in Twitter can now post again. I wrote a great deal on the subject there and in Techrights (and Identica, Diaspora etc.) | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | To quickly tackle your point (above): have you considered the possibility many of the above attacks (e.g. Intellectual Ventures, SCO, Black Duck) are connected to Microsoft itself? Not a loaded question per se. I can give you links. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> Twitter suspended me because some person or people filed | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> complained about my tweets about OSI, conveniently framing that as | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> "COVID". | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > Again, sorry this happened to you. I realized now that I mis-read your Twitter feed: your account hasn't tweeted for a while now. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | Twitter slid out of control. Next week I might call for a boycott and quit posting copies there. http://techrights.org/2022/01/06/twitter-boycott/ | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | >> I prefer written communication if that's OK. | Jan 07 00:10 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:11 |
| schestowitz | > Sure, as you wish. Fridays are the days I dedicate to answering to community questions, one way or another is fine. | Jan 07 00:11 |
| schestowitz | OK, so take your time. Let's touch bases. I think it would be beneficial for both of us. | Jan 07 00:11 |
| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-techrights.org | Time for a Twitter Boycott? | Techrights | Jan 07 00:11 | |
| schestowitz | >> Also, I'm not an enemy, mind you, I just see happening right now | Jan 07 00:11 |
| schestowitz | >> what happened in LF and OSDL. | Jan 07 00:11 |
| schestowitz | > | Jan 07 00:11 |
| schestowitz | > Noted. And for the records, I don't consider you an enemy either. | Jan 07 00:11 |
| schestowitz | :-) | Jan 07 00:11 |

| Techrights-sec | title, who is speaking (author/creator), maybe date (added already) and | Jan 07 02:59 |
| Techrights-sec | a keyword or two (optional) | Jan 07 02:59 |
| Techrights-sec | title is most important | Jan 07 02:59 |

| schestowitz | <blockquote> | Jan 07 03:54 |
| schestowitz | <p>One of the things that makes DNS difficult to understand is that it’s decentralized. There are thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands? I don’t know!) of authoritative nameservers, and at least 10 million resolvers. And they’re running lots of different software! All these different servers running software means that there’s a lot of inconsistency in how DNS works, which can cause all kinds of frustrating problems. | Jan 07 03:54 |
| schestowitz | </p> | Jan 07 03:54 |
| schestowitz | <p>But instead of talking about the problems, I’m interested in figuring out – why is it a good thing that DNS is decentralized?</p></blockquote></li> | Jan 07 03:54 |

| Techrights-sec | ok but rather than a call to action at this time it needs to be an awareness | Jan 07 14:09 |
| Techrights-sec | and bring attention to the four links just posted above. In the fourth link | Jan 07 14:09 |
| Techrights-sec | it is only part 3 which is relevant. | Jan 07 14:09 |
| schestowitz | this is difficult for me to write about | Jan 07 14:12 |
| schestowitz | as I start with no knowledge of what this is about | Jan 07 14:12 |
| Techrights-sec | which is a reason why it is ok to leave it be for now, but what about | Jan 07 14:14 |
| Techrights-sec | some of the others active at TR in the EU? | Jan 07 14:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | I passed that on for now, put notes in my todo with all the links | Jan 07 14:14 |

| Techrights-sec | for whom it is relevant can find it easily enough or already know about it | Jan 07 14:16 |
| Techrights-sec | there is a risk otherwise that the rest of just make noise | Jan 07 14:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe I can just publish the text of it with my response | Jan 07 14:17 |
| Techrights-sec | not the survey directly | Jan 07 14:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | I can make fun of it | Jan 07 14:17 |
| Techrights-sec | without the proper background reading the survey | Jan 07 14:20 |
| Techrights-sec | is not relevant; with the proper background knowledge it is an opportunity to | Jan 07 14:20 |
| Techrights-sec | nudge things the right direction, perhaps; my recommendation would to not post | Jan 07 14:20 |
| Techrights-sec | about it | Jan 07 14:20 |

| Techrights-sec | right but the questions in the survey are an attempt at addressing the problems | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | even if they don't know much about the software design underneath | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | One aspect which can be worthy of copious amounts of text would be the | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | question of how much software is actually fit for purpose and what the | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | protections people should have if they *use it as advertised*. | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | M$ can't have it both ways. They can't both blame the victim at the same time | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | as they are telling the victim that the software should be used in the way | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | they are blaming the victim for using it in. | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | For example, they design interaces to be clicked on and obfuscate a lot of | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | important information, including metadata, while embedding scripts and such, | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | advertising it all as desirable featues. Yet when those features are (mis)used | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | the usr is blamed instead of the the vendor. Same for attachments. Furthermore | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | the reason e-mail is used as a surrogate for file sharing is that M$ killed off | Jan 07 16:29 |
| Techrights-sec | Novell NetWare without either replacing the functionality or allowing the | Jan 07 16:30 |
| Techrights-sec | market to fill the vaccuum. So we are left today with 100s of millions if idiot | Jan 07 16:30 |
| Techrights-sec | companies with their idiot bosses and frazzled employees sending attachments | Jan 07 16:30 |
| Techrights-sec | and having multiple, conflicting versions of the same document, and having lost | Jan 07 16:30 |
| Techrights-sec | messages (via M$ Exchange) to add on top of the normal stress. | Jan 07 16:30 |
| Techrights-sec | Vendor lock-in moves further up the stack: | Jan 07 16:30 |

| Techrights-sec | The XBox served only as a testbed for DRM which gradually makes its way into | Jan 07 16:55 |
| Techrights-sec | the mainstream wintel market. | Jan 07 16:55 |

| Techrights-sec | I have to say that it's been obvious from the beginning what the XBox is about. | Jan 07 16:55 |

| schestowitz-TR | correct me if I am wrong | Jan 07 18:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | when you edited the metadata line | Jan 07 18:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | you cut in half $( ... ) | Jan 07 18:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | which I think is why the data is missing from resultant files | Jan 07 18:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | I will test | Jan 07 18:08 |
| Techrights-sec | It's quite likely I introduced some error, but command substitution works even | Jan 07 18:08 |
| Techrights-sec | when split over many lines. So the splitting itself is unlikely the prioblem | Jan 07 18:08 |
| Techrights-sec | but maybe a typo or omission? | Jan 07 18:08 |
| Techrights-sec | found it | Jan 07 18:29 |
| Techrights-sec | will fix | Jan 07 18:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | no, wait | Jan 07 18:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | conflicting changes | Jan 07 18:29 |
| Techrights-sec | ok, within the $( ... ) block keep everything the same but move the pipe | up | Jan 07 18:29 |
| Techrights-sec | to the end of the previous line. It should not matter but does, apparently. | Jan 07 18:29 |

| schestowitz-TR | thanks, adding | Jan 07 18:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | you caught me at the middle of doing 4 things at once, which I ought not do ^_^ | Jan 07 18:34 |
| Techrights-sec | multitasking is unproductive, there is always high overhead for it | Jan 07 18:38 |
| schestowitz-TR | usually it is neither intentional nor desired | Jan 07 18:38 |
| schestowitz-TR | happened this afternoon, as I noted | Jan 07 18:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | I went to sleep | Jan 07 18:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | to refresh and re-energise | Jan 07 18:39 |
| schestowitz | managed to make change without conflicts | Jan 07 18:41 |
| schestowitz | push will come if it works OK | Jan 07 18:41 |
| schestowitz | the upcoming video (sort of test, very short) | Jan 07 18:41 |
| schestowitz | will still have the bug of missing data | Jan 07 18:41 |
