schestowitzFirst of all, I need to say that about 20 mins ago DDOS resumed.May 25 05:33
schestowitzSame patterns as yesterday, PLUS an additional harder one to tackle.May 25 05:33
schestowitzThe attacker does about 10-15 reqs/secs on the very front page (root), which is not trivial for me to block. It basically redirects to techrights.org/home, but still takes some CPU/RAM before doing the redirect.May 25 05:33
schestowitzThe attack stopped when I made it less effective, but might resume at some stage. SO we now have a script to swap the .htaccess file based on average load. Maybe we'll put that to use tonight... if the attacker attempts to have another go.May 25 05:33

schestowitzYes, I responded to the DDOS quick enough that your RasPi may have not picked up errors.May 25 05:42
schestowitzLoad was 90-130, though the number of processes in the queue doesn't always say the most about the strain. Not all http reqs are equal, either.May 25 05:43

schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> This that eugenics stuff that your right-leaning readers talk about. I first heard the idea that Bill Gates was interested in Eugenics about 10 years ago. The CLEAR Health Pass (CNBC link) is creepy.May 25 06:16
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.cnbc.com | CLEAR CEO explains company's new Health Pass service to help screen for Covid-19May 25 06:16
schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> I understand the problem with conspiracy theorists-- they start with Corruption, then they're on eugenics and before you know it, it's all about little green men and scams on Youtube to build "free energy" out of not understanding how magnets and motors work. May 25 06:16
schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> This particular video is mostly about the Gates family and the Eugenics society. It was 40 minutes long, but I guess there are at least 3 other "parts" in this series. I bet you that one of those parts is a lot worse than this one.May 25 06:16
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.youtube.com | Meet Bill Gates - YouTubeMay 25 06:16
schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> To compare this to the other video, Bio-diesel actually is a failed idea-- these videos always start with facts. The problem was that on top of those hand-selective facts, a false narrative is spun which can easily be debunked.May 25 06:16
schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> One thing this particular part wraps up with, is the idea that it ISN'T just Gates, but that Gates is part of a group of closeted eugenicists who have always funded and researched and promoted these ideas.May 25 06:16
schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> This video would help you understand your new readers at least, but It's a time investment. I've already looked for debunking videos (no luck there) and maybe I'll take the time to watch more of the other parts. I've already looked into some of the wild claims. I don'ts just want some out-of-context clip about "CLEAR Health Pass"-- which is why I looked it up separately from the documentary.May 25 06:16
schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> Does Gates have any connection to it? I don't know. They only imply one. The theme of course, is the one we already know-- billionaires want to control our lives, they want surveillance on spending and health, just always. Whether they want it because theyre elitist eugenicists or because of sheer profit-- the documentary actually suggests that profit is the only real reason Gates is interested in it in the first place. It's May 25 06:16
schestowitzreally just about the money. All the control and mad-scientist business? It's just about profit.May 25 06:16
schestowitz> May 25 06:16
schestowitz> But then, that's what the other video said about solar power, eh? This stuff is so tedious. But I guess it's more fun than sitting at the library, lifting large volumes and rubbing copious amounts of print onto my fingers. You can "pause" and do other stuff, like eat or check other websites.May 25 06:16
schestowitzThanks for the YouTube link. Maybe Rianne and I will watch it later.May 25 06:16
schestowitzSomeone sent that to me yesterday over Twitter as well, so I support many people watch it.May 25 06:16

schestowitzI dare say Borochov 88 enjoys as much goodwill as Sarah's Place in its original location, given that it continues to thrive there. Surely the difference is that Sarah's moved, rather than opening an additional outlet. This presumably meant that all the staff moved, and loyal patrons had no alternative but to transfer their patronage to the new location.May 25 14:23
schestowitzBorochov's business objective was different. It wanted to develop a new clientele at an additional location. Its existing customers presumably had no incentive to transfer their patronage (and why would Borochov want them to - the aim was not to harm its existing successful business). In that sense, the new outlet was no different from any of the failed businesses that had preceded it.May 25 14:23

schestowitzI dare say there are ways to parlay goodwill to achieve a successful expansion of this type. Franchising models, for example, are entirely dependent upon such an approach. Borochov obviously got it wrong!May 25 14:23

schestowitzThe Australian judgment loses some of the subtlety and humour of Whiteman Smith v Chaplin, where Scrutton LJ saysMay 25 17:02
schestowitz"There remains a class of customer who may neither follow the place nor the person, but drift away elsewhere. They are neither as benefit to the landlord nor the tenant, and have been called "the rat" for no particular reason except to keep the epigram in the animal kingdom. I believe my brother Maugham has introduced the rabbit, but I will leave him to explain the position of the rabbit." May 25 17:02

schestowitzMaugham LJ explainsMay 25 17:02
schestowitz"But really there should be a fourth animal, the rabbit, to indicate the customers who come simply from propinquity to the premises; and, if this is borne in mind, it will be apparent that the rabbit may be much bigger than the cat, who (if indeed it does not wholly vanish) may well shrink to the dimensions of a mouse."May 25 17:02
