schestowitz-TR | draft | May 26 06:42 |
---|---|---|
Techrights-sec | the full name of Vidal should be used even if "Microsoft" is added as a nickhname | May 26 06:42 |
Techrights-sec | s/IP/IP {sic} | May 26 06:42 |
Techrights-sec | OOXML is not actually used by MSO so that's tiny but important detail to work | May 26 06:43 |
Techrights-sec | around and or note | May 26 06:43 |
Techrights-sec | the screenshot says DOCX, and that is a suite of formats and only peripherally | May 26 06:43 |
Techrights-sec | related to OOXML which no one actually uses, not even M$ itself | May 26 06:43 |
Techrights-sec | implying that OOXML is in use or that DOCX is a single format is misleading at | May 26 06:43 |
Techrights-sec | best | May 26 06:43 |
schestowitz-TR | thank you, very useful corrections | May 26 07:09 |

Techrights-sec | he had been doing so well for so long before selling out, now he sees what comes | May 26 07:44 |
Techrights-sec | of selling out; maybe he had a boost of income for a few weeks or even months, | May 26 07:44 |
Techrights-sec | but the cost came at driving away the audience he had; now that he has no | May 26 07:44 |
Techrights-sec | audience, the sponsors won't want him either; | May 26 07:44 |
schestowitz-TR | I want to frame this a little differently if you don't mind | May 26 07:46 |
schestowitz-TR | Phoronix was a hub | May 26 07:46 |
schestowitz-TR | many sites linked to it | May 26 07:46 |
schestowitz-TR | LT, TM (his biggest source of trtaffic, based on Alexa, which is now dead)... | May 26 07:46 |
schestowitz-TR | so for traffic he depended on more than just the people who follow via RSS etc. | May 26 07:46 |
schestowitz-TR | if he pisses off the primary sources of readers, new readers, and Twitter (Musk) | May 26 07:46 |
schestowitz-TR | won't salvage that (mostly fake numbers), you will be harmed | May 26 07:47 |

Techrights-sec | s/you/he/ | May 26 07:47 |
schestowitz-TR | yes, I noticed that error | May 26 07:47 |
schestowitz-TR | but did not bother correcting it | May 26 07:47 |

My Palm PDA still has a full dictionary, but a lot of today's dictionaries for computing devices are spyware. They make no attempt to keep the data locally.

Techrights-sec | it seems TM was temporarily unavailable at ~ 9:10 and ~ 13:25 | May 26 19:11 |
schestowitz-TR | there was a heavy load, I saw that, and it went away before intervention was needd | May 26 19:11 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe 2 mins | May 26 19:11 |
schestowitz-TR | if the monitoring software claims a downtime very long, I think it's wrong because I tried very hard to keep it updated | May 26 19:11 |
schestowitz-TR | also, in TR I posted 3 batches of Daily Links already | May 26 19:11 |
schestowitz-TR | if the news is slow, then I can compensate by SPEED | May 26 19:11 |
schestowitz-TR | posting the news, FASTER | May 26 19:11 |
Techrights-sec | ack | May 26 19:11 |
Techrights-sec | I don't log duration here perhaps I should figure a way. | May 26 19:11 |
schestowitz-TR | montastic measures duration | May 26 19:12 |
schestowitz-TR | it's the only remaining use for the bytesmedia account this year | May 26 19:12 |
schestowitz-TR | so much real estate spam, I assume they target it because it's a .co.uk tld | May 26 19:12 |
schestowitz-TR | -- | May 26 19:16 |
schestowitz-TR | I'm temporarily turning ipfs on when I need low latency | May 26 19:16 |
schestowitz-TR | for now, my efforts to 'fix' the existing scripts were not successful | May 26 19:16 |
schestowitz-TR | mostly by configuring things on the system | May 26 19:16 |
schestowitz-TR | debian really should NOT break APIs, not for a STABLE release | May 26 19:16 |
schestowitz-TR | this is insane | May 26 19:16 |
schestowitz-TR | I also had to fix several other things, wlan aside | May 26 19:17 |
schestowitz-TR | imagine if this was a business prod server | May 26 19:17 |
schestowitz-TR | apt update | May 26 19:17 |
schestowitz-TR | and then nginx does not starte | May 26 19:17 |
schestowitz-TR | networking does not work | May 26 19:17 |
schestowitz-TR | and a bunch of other little things need tweaking | May 26 19:17 |
schestowitz-TR | sooner or later businesses would stop updating systems, for the sake of stability | May 26 19:17 |
Techrights-sec | ack | May 26 19:17 |
Techrights-sec | debian has taken a bit hit in regards to reliability since the systemd | May 26 19:21 |
Techrights-sec | fiasco was used to hound out so many of the good developers | May 26 19:21 |
schestowitz-TR | I think you cannot see the output or running a tc script | May 26 19:24 |

schestowitz | We have an error talking to the kernel | May 26 19:25 |
schestowitz-TR | at first I assumed that it was due to wlan changing to eth | May 26 19:28 |
schestowitz-TR | but soon I realised it was not | May 26 19:28 |
schestowitz-TR | I searched some of these error messages, which seem common | May 26 19:28 |
schestowitz-TR | on rhel systems they have some workarounds | May 26 19:28 |
schestowitz-TR | but really, in the long run, a small rewrite would give this longevity | May 26 19:28 |
schestowitz-TR | it's hard to know how far we get through ipfs because of thr decentralised nature of i | May 26 19:28 |
schestowitz-TR | but it helps to put out there those objects with constrained network capacity | May 26 19:28 |
Techrights-sec | nope | May 26 19:29 |
Techrights-sec | $ ifconfig wlan0 | May 26 19:29 |
Techrights-sec | wlan0: error fetching interface information: Device not found | May 26 19:29 |
Techrights-sec | is the country code set via raspi-config ? | May 26 19:29 |
Techrights-sec | the wireless interface has to be which country's rules to operate under | May 26 19:29 |
Techrights-sec | ack | May 26 19:29 |
schestowitz-TR | after the update and reboot (week later) I did notice that when booting it was throwing some kernel-relared errors | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | the hardware is OK, based on the clone system, which gets to wifi OK | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | so I blame system update and I think the kernel part in particulart | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | there is no grub, so changing to another kernel isn't simple | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | and using access to direct it to another kernel, which might not work | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | would lock me out | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | unable to even boot to undo the changes | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | so it's riskier than just plugging in via eth0 | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | I already configures the router and some existing code to use this new device name and interface | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | and so I don't worry too much | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | in fact, I assume futyure updates with new kernels might "fix" the wlan | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | not that I would revert back to it at that point | May 26 19:32 |
schestowitz-TR | but the tc issue has been a real pain because I turn ipfs on and off | May 26 19:33 |
schestowitz-TR | just not to be offline completly, esp. not when we add new objects to it (~3am) | May 26 19:33 |
schestowitz-TR | One thing I treuly love about the pi series is, | May 26 19:53 |
schestowitz-TR | you can cheaply have a whole bunch of redundant pieces of hw clones | May 26 19:53 |
schestowitz-TR | and then make a set of clones of the software or system | May 26 19:53 |
schestowitz-TR | and swapo those around | May 26 19:53 |
schestowitz-TR | I did notice that running from USB ist is vastly slower than sd | May 26 19:53 |
schestowitz-TR | and the menus can be hardly esponsive | May 26 19:53 |
Techrights-sec | have you tried 'rfkill' with its options? | May 26 19:54 |
Techrights-sec | try 'rfkill list' | May 26 19:54 |
Techrights-sec | yes that's a big advantage | May 26 19:54 |
Techrights-sec | the storage media and the devices themselves can be interchangeable | May 26 19:54 |
Techrights-sec | strange, was the USB plugged into one of the USB3 ports (blue) ? | May 26 19:54 |
Techrights-sec | WAN seems to have dropped | May 26 20:16 |
schestowitz-TR | That explains why the pi400 is so slo | May 26 20:17 |
schestowitz-TR | *slow | May 26 20:17 |
schestowitz-TR | I've just checks, the stick is inserted into a black -coloured port | May 26 20:17 |
schestowitz-TR | I did not know those colours had a meaning | May 26 20:17 |
schestowitz-TR | I tried rfkill | May 26 20:52 |
schestowitz-TR | I also checked the manpages | May 26 20:52 |
schestowitz-TR | but it gets me nowhere and it's labeled legacy, deprecated | May 26 20:52 |
schestowitz-TR | I reckon I can buy more devices like this one in the future, but | May 26 20:52 |
schestowitz-TR | this last experience with the sytem update was a bummer | May 26 20:52 |
schestowitz-TR | a lot worse than the outage itself (thankfully, no repetition of such | May 26 20:52 |
