| schestowitz-TR | I think we need a lockfile for the monitoring script to make it singleton | Nov 10 10:14 |
|---|---|---|
| schestowitz-TR | Running it in two places at the same time can cause some minor issues | Nov 10 10:14 |
| Techrights-sec | Ack. flock(1) can do that. | Nov 10 10:39 |
| Techrights-sec | :0 | Nov 10 10:39 |
| Techrights-sec | :w | Nov 10 10:39 |
| Techrights-sec | oops, vi. | Nov 10 10:39 |
| Techrights-sec | Try the script now. It will only allow 1 instance at a time | Nov 10 10:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | thanks, I did not know about flock | Nov 10 10:39 |
| Techrights-sec | np. Seems to work. The first instance runs and any subsequent instances | Nov 10 10:42 |
| Techrights-sec | abort. Maybe the abort message ought to go to stderr? | Nov 10 10:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | as long as it's not generalised enough to be adopted by others (depends on growth of gemini), I think that level of care is premature :-) | Nov 10 10:43 |
| *psydroid2 (~psydroid@cqggrmwgu7gji.irc) has joined #boycottnovell | Nov 10 10:47 | |
| Techrights-sec | So I'll push the locking changes to Git now. | Nov 10 10:48 |
| Techrights-sec | a8f77a7..810d796 | Nov 10 10:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | excellent. Today I'll try to produce more articles. yesterday's investment in gemini stuff was well worth it, the news was slow anyway | Nov 10 10:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | I want to ask, | Nov 10 10:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | any point responding to the HPMS-WSL2 thing? | Nov 10 10:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | Git feeling says, maybe gives attention to something better off ignored? | Nov 10 10:49 |

| Techrights-sec | are the target market for WSL and if it is ever to begin to gain traction, | Nov 10 10:56 |
| Techrights-sec | it will only be because the managers have imposed WSL like they have done | Nov 10 10:56 |
| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.phoronix.com | HP To Begin Pre-Loading WSL2 For Windows On Upcoming HP Workstations - Phoronix | Nov 10 10:56 | |
| Techrights-sec | before will all the other garbage, like Citrix etc. | Nov 10 10:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | so worth doing article/video about, at risk of giving it more exposure/audience? | Nov 10 10:56 |
| *DaemonFC (~daemonfc@j33ea95yssa9i.irc) has joined #boycottnovell | Nov 10 10:56 | |
| Techrights-sec | If done carefully, yes. But managers love all things M$ no matter how | Nov 10 11:01 |
| Techrights-sec | unfit for the tasks the may be. One approach might be to not name WSL | Nov 10 11:01 |
| Techrights-sec | but to find out about the money HP is obviously receiving from M$ and what | Nov 10 11:01 |
| Techrights-sec | concessions and strings it entails. Based on all past behavior, it is easy | Nov 10 11:01 |
| Techrights-sec | to guess with high certainty that the goal is to block GNU/Linux pre-installed | Nov 10 11:01 |
| Techrights-sec | machines. Note that you cannot wisely quote any of the above because WSL is mentioned in many sentence and omitting | Nov 10 11:01 |
| Techrights-sec | it will cause the sentences not to make | Nov 10 11:01 |
| Techrights-sec | sense. | Nov 10 11:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | so, in short, you think like me on this. better to ignore and hope it doesn't have Linux googlebombed the rest of this week | Nov 10 11:02 |
| Techrights-sec | so | Nov 10 11:06 |
| Techrights-sec | Yep. It is bad enough in the search engines already. You'll never find anything | Nov 10 11:06 |
| Techrights-sec | actually about "Linux" by searching for that term. Likewise, you'll never | Nov 10 11:06 |
| Techrights-sec | find anything for "OpenDocument" format by searching for any aspect of the | Nov 10 11:06 |
| Techrights-sec | name unless searching for the standard number too (ISO/IEC 26300) but then | Nov 10 11:06 |
| Techrights-sec | with the standard number you don't get any general audience material. | Nov 10 11:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | that started to happen around 2009, so I dropped the RSS feed/s | Nov 10 11:06 |
| Techrights-sec | Yes, but it is even more ridiculous nowadays. | Nov 10 11:09 |

| schestowitz-TR | yes, I quoted the comments earlier | Nov 10 11:09 |
| Techrights-sec | I like Christine Hall's comment a while back. It was that M$ loves Linux | Nov 10 11:11 |
| Techrights-sec | in about the same way she loves chicken. | Nov 10 11:11 |
| Techrights-sec | M$ <3 Linux :: I <3 Chicken | Nov 10 11:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | she reads techrights and tuxmachines. I think she got this analogy from there, but I'm happy with the sharing ;-) | Nov 10 11:12 |
| Techrights-sec | Whatever works :) | Nov 10 11:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | she became more independent now. Writes again in FOSSForce instead of shilling IBM in some sites that pay a salary. | Nov 10 11:13 |
| Techrights-sec | That's a relief. I can't imagine at what cost the shilling occurs, and I | Nov 10 11:14 |
| Techrights-sec | don't mean financial costs... | Nov 10 11:14 |

| schestowitz-TR | I've managed to record a 30-min video about the HP thing without mentioning WSL even once | Nov 10 14:45 |
| Techrights-sec | excellent. it should not be named or even circumnavigated just omitted and | Nov 10 14:45 |
| Techrights-sec | other topics focused on. | Nov 10 14:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | what matters is the underlying concept, which will still be relevant decades later when the names change | Nov 10 14:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | Yes, the concept is paying HP to impair the use of GNU/Linux. | Nov 10 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | I did mention that part | Nov 10 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | also in the text, it's still processing/uploading | Nov 10 14:50 |
