| schestowitz | made some improvements to IRC bot and in /bin/watch-for-heavy-users.sh which can be run under the gemini account, it's even a bit of a GUI | Apr 09 03:48 |

| schestowitz | tuxmachines has come under more attacks lately, sometimes when we're both afk (rianne and I), causing long downtime. If you see an attack in nmon or receive an email alert from montanstic, you run usually fix things by just running: service mysqld restart | Apr 09 10:47 |
| Techrights-sec | Iäve been trying to keep an eye on TM lately but the triggers that set off montastic | Apr 09 10:55 |
| Techrights-sec | don't set off my monitor and when I do follow up on the montastic warnings, | Apr 09 10:55 |
| Techrights-sec | nearly each time it has been a false alarm. So I am not quite sure what to | Apr 09 10:55 |
| Techrights-sec | modify. | Apr 09 10:55 |
| schestowitz | I am reluctant to automate something that takes up and down a DB | Apr 09 10:56 |
| schestowitz | minimising downtime damage would have the effect or educing the incentive for the attacker | Apr 09 10:57 |
| schestowitz | re Koch, he has long been in the anti-RMS camp (even calling for removal from GNU), so no major surprise there... I would not call it a new loss | Apr 09 10:58 |
| Techrights-sec | I should then fine-tune the monioring scripts here to make them more sensitive | Apr 09 11:28 |

| Techrights-sec | Neither Google nor Oracle are the good guys. So their relative wins or | Apr 09 14:14 |
| Techrights-sec | losses are irrelevant. What is important is that the court's decision | Apr 09 14:14 |
| Techrights-sec | allows software development to continue. | Apr 09 14:14 |
| Techrights-sec | I should schedule some router maintenance soon, it will break the connection for | Apr 09 14:14 |
| Techrights-sec | about 30 minutes. tmux etc will be unaffected. | Apr 09 14:14 |
| Techrights-sec | I should be able to fit a gemini server on the router someday soon. | Apr 09 14:14 |
| schestowitz | I could really use another quasi-primary ipfs node. I've just recorded a video about ipfs-gemini. | Apr 09 14:24 |
| Techrights-sec | I don't have the free storage capacity anywhere otherwise I'd read up on IPFS | Apr 09 14:25 |
| schestowitz | we have a mirror of "G" in the UK for a while (busy finishing his book now) and then in Tasmania... but at the moment I'm not only complete copy of things, the "master" | Apr 09 14:25 |
| Techrights-sec | $ lsb_release -d; apt-cache search ^ipfs | Apr 09 14:47 |
| Techrights-sec | Description: Devuan GNU/Linux 4 (chimaera/ceres) | Apr 09 14:47 |
| Techrights-sec | no IPFS stuff in the repository yet | Apr 09 14:47 |
| Techrights-sec | so that's a second, and much larger, barrier | Apr 09 14:47 |
| schestowitz | no need for repos, I have detailed manuals for doing it from goipfs and golang | Apr 09 14:47 |
| schestowitz | True, but that too has risk associated with it. Original sites/repos of projects sometimes work well enough and don't embed themselves in your root level stuff, they're running in userspace. | Apr 09 14:54 |
| Techrights-sec | Working from the repository is a prerequisite for use... | Apr 09 14:56 |
| Techrights-sec | I'm thinking more about compatibility, tidiness, and ease of maintenance. | Apr 09 14:56 |
| Techrights-sec | Gentoo is fine, but I prefer Devuan or similar because the work is scalable. | Apr 09 14:56 |
| schestowitz | you could even just copy over the homedir from my SBC with ipfs in it and it'll work provided you add some deps | Apr 09 14:57 |

| schestowitz | "Ideally, use of the competing technology becomes associated with mental deficiency, as in, "he believes in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and OS/2." Just keep rubbing it in, via the press, analysts, newsgroups, whatever. Make the complete failure of the competition's technology part of the mythology of the computer industry. We want to place selection pressure on those companies and individuals that show a genetic weakness for | Apr 09 23:58 |
| schestowitz | competitors' technologies, to make the industry increasingly resistant to such unhealthy strains, over time." | Apr 09 23:58 |
