schestowitz-TR | <techrights-news> Generation Z for zombie (crackheads): "This morning I read a news story that absolutely horrified me. A high school in my area had all of their students walkout in protest of the school's new ban on mobile phones during class. Apparently, this is going on in many schools all over the world..." https://yewtu.be/watch?v=oWM2BrJO2ho | Oct 08 15:15 |

schestowitz-TR | there is that Neanderthal cartoon where the upright man sits on a chair as he evolves | Oct 08 15:21 |
schestowitz-TR | that cartoon can be updated to show him lying down supine with a "phone" | Oct 08 15:21 |

Techrights-sec | the article could enumerate some of the benefits of the GPL, maybe borrow something from LT's talk from 2012? | Oct 08 16:15 |
schestowitz-TR | draft | Oct 08 16:16 |
schestowitz-TR | I've added some text to that effect and will pursue a video of LT explaining it | Oct 08 16:16 |
Techrights-sec | checking | Oct 08 16:16 |
schestowitz-TR | i cannot locate the video easily | Oct 08 16:18 |
schestowitz-TR | videoa re hard | Oct 08 16:18 |
starstreak | <schestowitz-TR> there is that Neanderthal cartoon where the upright man sits on a chair as he evolves <- did someone say neanderthal | Oct 08 16:32 |

schestowitz-TR | seems like a survey | Oct 08 19:07 |
schestowitz-TR | weird | Oct 08 19:07 |
schestowitz-TR | I expected better research | Oct 08 19:07 |
Techrights-sec | perhaps no funding there? | Oct 08 19:07 |
schestowitz-TR | I'm rather underwhelmed | Oct 08 19:08 |
schestowitz-TR | the page as a whole, the domain... | Oct 08 19:08 |
schestowitz-TR | even smaller countries like NZ can do better | Oct 08 19:08 |
schestowitz-TR | wrose YET, the ZOE study i the UK seems to be absed on "app" | Oct 08 19:10 |
schestowitz-TR | how many people in the high-risk group bother with "apps" | Oct 08 19:10 |
schestowitz-TR | seems like a self-selected subgroup | Oct 08 19:10 |
schestowitz-TR | *selecting | Oct 08 19:10 |
schestowitz-TR | going by death certificates is more reliable | Oct 08 19:10 |
Techrights-sec | correct | Oct 08 19:20 |
schestowitz-TR | i took monday off work | Oct 08 19:21 |

schestowitz-TR | <techrights-news> Phoronix clickbait about KDE this evening. Sigh. | Oct 08 19:28 |
schestowitz-TR | Sometimes Phoronix should just link to the original and that is it. No need for commentary. Mailing lists, blogs... just link to them. Don't distort their message. | Oct 08 19:28 |

schestowitz-TR | yes, but still pgp | Oct 08 19:29 |
Techrights-sec | yes thunderbird *really* dropped the ball there, and probably did so on | Oct 08 19:32 |

schestowitz-TR | I still send messages with pgp | Oct 08 19:34 |
schestowitz-TR | but not even sure how much I trust it | Oct 08 19:34 |
schestowitz-TR | the CSO for thunderbird is CIA | Oct 08 19:34 |
schestowitz-TR | and Mozilla is funded by a spying company, Gulag | Oct 08 19:34 |
schestowitz-TR | it sucks | Oct 08 19:34 |
Techrights-sec | It's not possible any more with thunderbird... | Oct 08 19:34 |
schestowitz-TR | gmail's business model is based on going through your email | Oct 08 19:36 |
schestowitz-TR | pgp thwarts this model | Oct 08 19:36 |
schestowitz-TR | so mozilla will never strive to make all messages (properly) encrypted | Oct 08 19:36 |
schestowitz-TR | it also discourages the use of rss | Oct 08 19:36 |
schestowitz-TR | with rss the mitm spying is hard | Oct 08 19:36 |
schestowitz-TR | and very much limited (feedburner was dropped; gulag gets more data another way) | Oct 08 19:36 |
Techrights-sec | Google basically bought her and by extension Mozilla | Oct 08 19:37 |
Techrights-sec | or vice versa, it does not matter so much which happened first | Oct 08 19:37 |
schestowitz-TR | considering her age she must be mentally broken and feeble | Oct 08 19:39 |
schestowitz-TR | to choose to hoard this money | Oct 08 19:39 |
schestowitz-TR | knowing everyone hates here so much | Oct 08 19:39 |
schestowitz-TR | inc. many mozills insiders and ex insiders | Oct 08 19:39 |
schestowitz-TR | except asa who sucks up to her | Oct 08 19:39 |
schestowitz-TR | but then again career climbing people like these serve the bosses | Oct 08 19:39 |
