| schestowitz-TR | very good news about tim bray! | Nov 27 11:47 |
| Techrightssec | checking his blog now ... | Nov 27 16:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | if enough people leave and explain why, others will follow | Nov 27 16:49 |
| Techrightssec | you mean leaving twitter? yes that is great. it is even better that he has | Nov 27 16:49 |
| Techrightssec | blogged prominently about it | Nov 27 16:49 |
| Techrightssec | it has already passed a tipping point in regards to staffing | Nov 27 16:55 |
| Techrightssec | the rest will probably take care of itself | Nov 27 16:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | it is a chicken and user thing: staff<->users | Nov 27 16:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | if suers leave in droves, incentive to correct staffing is lower | Nov 27 16:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | if staff leaves in drives, serve worksens on several levels | Nov 27 16:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | and users loe interest | Nov 27 16:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | even before thr takeover twitter had become more of a desrt eahc month | Nov 27 16:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | today we installed another recipe application on the pi | Nov 27 16:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | gournet and gnome-recipe | Nov 27 16:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | the latter is connected to the first, sort of like successor | Nov 27 16:59 |
| Techrightssec | which program works best for those? | Nov 27 17:03 |
| schestowitz-TR | gnome-recipe | Nov 27 17:03 |
| schestowitz-TR | backups done: | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | tenton (rianne) | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | tuxmachines www dir | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | techrights wordpress db | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | (offsite backups of these, too) | Nov 27 19:11 |
| Techrightssec | ack | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | just in case | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | the targz of tm grew about 40mb in the past half month | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | uptime of that site has been excellent, today I had to run ddos mitigation for old-tm | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | the usual reason | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | that site still does almost 3 hits/sec | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | despite having nothing new in months | Nov 27 19:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | as many people still point to the rss feed on that domain/ip | Nov 27 19:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | uptime issues for that site can impact readers of news.tm | Nov 27 19:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | still, better than being a fool of feedburner, relying on it as a relay until Gulag decides "there's | Nov 27 19:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | no money in it" hence shutdown | Nov 27 19:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | can't wait for amazon to turn off alexa | Nov 27 19:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | and millions of devices of all kinds will be rendered bricks | Nov 27 19:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | then we'll see who's "smart" and who was whose "assistant" | Nov 27 19:12 |
| Techrightssec | they'll use that as an excuse to sell all the recordings and other data | Nov 27 19:13 |
| Techrightssec | they've surrepetiously collected | Nov 27 19:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | or | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | 1) textualised (i.e meta)data of those recordings | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | 2) annotated based on voice (ID), time-tagged | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | 3) bonus: detect voide of house/office guests | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | hey, it's not like companies or products never shut down and then sold their "assets" or "IP" or "data" | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | 'anonymized' [sic] data | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | totally harmless, nobody can seam that together|! | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | Parallel Construction <3 Aleca Leads | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | "how did you get this data?" | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | "nothing, we just knew where and what to sniff" | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | like that CIA-connected (via Spain) firm that put bugs in the London embassy | Nov 27 19:16 |
| Techrightssec | that too | Nov 27 19:16 |
| Techrightssec | parallel construction is a wide spread practice despite or because of its | Nov 27 19:16 |
| Techrightssec | illegality | Nov 27 19:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | workplaces do that too (commercial) | Nov 27 19:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | not just governments ("public" sector, inc. military/froce) | Nov 27 19:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | *force | Nov 27 19:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | alexa and ring have already given cops lots to latch onto | Nov 27 19:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | like, if they don't like eric garner being filmed by some dude (he too is dead now, he had been arested as well) | Nov 27 19:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | eric's daughter had a heart failure at age ~30 iirc | Nov 27 19:18 |
| Techrightssec | yep | Nov 27 19:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | she was well overweight, like her dad | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | but erica had become a thorn on HRC's side | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | causing lots of black americans not to vote blue | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | just because she died | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | the usa has a long history of getting rid of black martyrs | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | endless list, mlk and malcolm x are among the better known "suspects" | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | there are many more | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | and you can never prove anything | Nov 27 19:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | /s/just because/just before/ | Nov 27 19:23 |
| Techrightssec | true | Nov 27 19:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | they should know it's trouble when they became | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | 1) influential and | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | 2) not in a way that perpetuates "White Power" | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | Will Smith is not a good example | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | Macy grey got in trouble for merely insisting on women's identity | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | Houston dead, so is her daughter (only daughter IIRC) | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | but that was due to drugs | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | and related aspects | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | michael jackson also drugs, iirc the GP's fault in part | Nov 27 19:27 |
| Techrightssec | hrc's minions threw the primary, and ended up being the biggest factor in the | Nov 27 19:27 |
| Techrightssec | 2016 loss | Nov 27 19:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | chapelle was considered acceptable until he turned against his "masters" | Nov 27 19:27 |
| Techrightssec | ack | Nov 27 19:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | showbiz is, in general very deadly | Nov 27 19:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | those who experience anticlimatic episode tend to end up hooked on some very hard drugs | Nov 27 19:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | and the chance of early death seem very high in that occupation | Nov 27 19:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | i recently found out after his fall from grace spike jones basically 'killed' himself with endless chain smoking | Nov 27 19:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | his late wife died only days before I found out about that | Nov 27 19:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | updating gem capsules to fetch from the new url | Nov 27 19:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | the hostname was embedded in .ssh config | Nov 27 19:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | done, tested | Nov 27 19:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | only needed changing in one place, how very elegant | Nov 27 19:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | i will probably need to clone the pi again some time soon | Nov 27 19:55 |
