| Techrights-sec2 | there should be a banner mentioning that it is in early alpha stage | Jul 29 07:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | I was thinking last night, seeing the titles in IRC expansion | Jul 29 08:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | we can add " - Tux Machines" | Jul 29 08:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | to the end of page titles | Jul 29 08:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe for now with "(Alpha)" | Jul 29 08:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | and then the same at top of page, but being static means that'll stick later | Jul 29 08:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | in the logs, which I see ona screen, you can already see cracking attempts | Jul 29 08:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | like weird crafted reqs which make assumptions about the CMS in situ | Jul 29 08:00 |
| Techrights-sec2 | ok | Jul 29 08:03 |

| Techrights-sec2 | The summary needs to have a little more information about these new actions, | Jul 29 08:30 |
| Techrights-sec2 | just a word or two is enough. IIRC it was Lenovo? | Jul 29 08:30 |
| Techrights-sec2 | Yes, but a reminder about what they are ramping up is necessary, links | Jul 29 08:30 |
| Techrights-sec2 | don't count ;) | Jul 29 08:30 |
| Techrights-sec2 | plain text -- it was good enough for Shakespeare | Jul 29 08:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | I will do a followup post about that | Jul 29 08:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | and there are two links at the top | Jul 29 08:30 |
| Techrights-sec2 | The followup post can go into detail about the current event as well as the | Jul 29 08:31 |
| Techrights-sec2 | background, preceding hostile actions. However, just naming Lenovo or whatever | Jul 29 08:31 |
| Techrights-sec2 | is important for the summary. | Jul 29 08:31 |

| schestowitz-TR | marius has got in | Jul 29 09:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | he asks mew what the password is | Jul 29 09:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | I assume such login method would still work too | Jul 29 09:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | and that he can reset his password | Jul 29 09:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | but I lean towards telling him to use keys instead | Jul 29 09:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | thoughts? | Jul 29 09:12 |
| Techrights-sec2 | keys are the way to log in but I can set a password so that later sudo could | Jul 29 09:12 |
| Techrights-sec2 | be used for specific configurations | Jul 29 09:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | if you set a password for him, maybe put it in his homedir to copy and delere | Jul 29 09:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'm finishing the work handover now | Jul 29 09:14 |
| Techrights-sec2 | I'll put it in a file in his homdir | Jul 29 09:20 |
| Techrights-sec2 | ok he has a password now, and he can reset it, but it won't do much since | Jul 29 09:20 |
| Techrights-sec2 | for now | Jul 29 09:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | thanks! | Jul 29 09:20 |
| schestowitz-TR | I've just messaged him (pgp, but I don't trust protonmail, they're like mitm) | Jul 29 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'll try to mention the UEFI thing every day now | Jul 29 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | to urge for action, or anger that begets some action | Jul 29 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | the followup post shows why action is not likely | Jul 29 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | not from orgs and vendors | Jul 29 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | we have a whole new class of well-paid "clergy" (e.g. stefono) whose job is | Jul 29 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | to cover up for Microsoft and its crimes | Jul 29 09:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | and they cannot do what's right without losing a 6-figure salary | Jul 29 09:24 |
| Techrights-sec2 | thanks, the UEFI problm has been allowed to go on far too long without proper | Jul 29 09:26 |
| Techrights-sec2 | legal action against M$ and the UEFI team; it's not quite too late but getting | Jul 29 09:26 |
| Techrights-sec2 | there given how slow the courts act even on the occasions when they do act | Jul 29 09:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | we'll know we make good progress when more people, many people, explain the situation | Jul 29 09:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | correctly | Jul 29 09:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | that is the vitral role of TR, IMHO | Jul 29 09:27 |
| Techrights-sec2 | yes | Jul 29 09:27 |
| Techrights-sec2 | with UEFI the damage is already being felt and that seems to be the litmus test | Jul 29 09:32 |
| Techrights-sec2 | which courts go by; the only risk is that many judges worship bill and often | Jul 29 09:32 |

| schestowitz | Dear colleagues, | Jul 29 09:53 |
| schestowitz | On 12 July 2022 the Local Staff Committee Munich City, Haar and Brussels (LSCMN) met the Site Manager of Munich City, VP4 Nellie Simon, for the first time in 2022 to discuss a number of prevailing local matters, notably the Bringing Teams Together project and the planned move of the BoA Unit to PH 7 in a virtual meeting which had been scheduled, as had the previous ones last year, for one hour, only. | Jul 29 09:53 |
| schestowitz | Since on some topics no progress had been made, we had requested the administration to put them on the agenda again. | Jul 29 09:53 |
| schestowitz | The Local Staff Committee Munich City, Haar and Brussels. | Jul 29 09:53 |

| Techrights-sec2 | it can be set back by people if needed later. | Jul 29 11:43 |
| Techrights-sec2 | One of the things the courts need to be brought around into seeing is that | Jul 29 11:43 |
| Techrights-sec2 | M$ has been planning hardware lock-in for decades and that the lock-in is | Jul 29 11:43 |

| Techrights-sec2 | did key access work? | Jul 29 12:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | yes, should I do the same for tuxmachinea and roy | Jul 29 12:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | or should I refrain from using one of them? | Jul 29 12:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | that mostly depends on default user for db entry and permission/access level I assume | Jul 29 12:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'm already logged in as root on another machine to observe the attacks on the htdocs space | Jul 29 12:32 |
| Techrights-sec2 | yes for both but if possible use the 'roy' account when possible | Jul 29 12:35 |
| Techrights-sec2 | it'd be good to turn off remote login for 'tuxmachines' and use su or sudo | Jul 29 12:35 |

| schestowitz-TR | btw, video is 130mb in size, still uploading if you want to peek at the draft | Jul 29 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | I did a second (final) read of it, just waiting for server checksum to show up when done | Jul 29 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | 19k hits in new TM, but many are the irc checker, among the rest a lot are malicious traffic | Jul 29 12:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | a recent (month old ) article complained that a proportion I cannot recall is nowadays | Jul 29 12:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | bots | Jul 29 12:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | including many malicious ones | Jul 29 12:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | that's worse than gemini | Jul 29 12:40 |
| Techrights-sec2 | we could add SSHGuard to the mess, it can block some of the return attackers | Jul 29 12:41 |
| Techrights-sec2 | despite the anme it covers HTTP | Jul 29 12:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | that's another protocll | Jul 29 12:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'm talking about http/s alone | Jul 29 12:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | from apache2 logfiles | Jul 29 12:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | we used to run fail2ban on the varnish layer | Jul 29 12:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | apropos, with static sites little incentive to run varnish at all | Jul 29 12:43 |
| Techrights-sec2 | fail2ban is not up to the same level as sshguard from what I have read in the | Jul 29 12:46 |
| Techrights-sec2 | past | Jul 29 12:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | I don't care for shit traffic | Jul 29 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'm not twitter faking traffic for showoff | Jul 29 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | or fake price | Jul 29 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | also, I don't serve 20 objects per page | Jul 29 12:47 |

| schestowitz-TR | *dated | Jul 29 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | same for filters like fail2ban | Jul 29 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | as we have not used that for ages | Jul 29 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | it was too sensitive | Jul 29 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | blocked me too at times | Jul 29 12:47 |
| Techrights-sec2 | at least with SSHGuard, that can be tuned and has to be configured anyway | Jul 29 12:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | now rianne spots all the minor imperfections | Jul 29 12:51 |

| schestowitz-TR | and I get a system bell with details | Jul 29 18:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | so it's ok as-is | Jul 29 18:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | it does 3 things all in one | Jul 29 18:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe more in the future | Jul 29 18:08 |

| Techrights-sec2 | tidy has --quote-ampersand but it turns out it is incompatible with | Jul 29 18:27 |
| Techrights-sec2 | --preserve-entities and the latter is more important; it's possible to add | Jul 29 18:27 |
| Techrights-sec2 | a filter | Jul 29 18:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | there's room for many automation and proprocessing steps | Jul 29 18:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | (preprocessing | Jul 29 18:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | to save time on data entry | Jul 29 18:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | but I've not explored that yet | Jul 29 18:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | parly because right now I submit the same to two cntent management systems | Jul 29 18:29 |
| Techrights-sec2 | but the regex is very tricky because it must not destroy any entities which | Jul 29 18:41 |
| Techrights-sec2 | are already encoded | Jul 29 18:41 |
| Techrights-sec2 | the built-in CPAN modul for that is not so sensitive and clobbers the | Jul 29 18:41 |
| Techrights-sec2 | existing entities so it may not be used | Jul 29 18:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | it would usually be enough to replace " & " with " & " as URLs contain no spaces | Jul 29 18:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | there are many other substitutions that can make data entry faster | Jul 29 18:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | at one point we can borrow from camelcase.pm to add site name to titles | Jul 29 18:43 |
| Techrights-sec2 | yes, but zapping all ampersands creates bigger problems so the replacement | Jul 29 18:44 |
| Techrights-sec2 | has to be selective but it's a little tricky figuring out the right pattern | Jul 29 18:44 |

| schestowitz-TR | ampersand handling was always one of them | Jul 29 18:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | in TR I need to use care and remember what symbols never to put in titles and summaries | Jul 29 18:46 |

| Techrights-sec2 | correct, there's not much to do about that except being careful about using | Jul 29 18:56 |
| Techrights-sec2 | < when it is needed, there is not way to parse the text and guess whether | Jul 29 18:56 |
| Techrights-sec2 | and element was meant or not | Jul 29 18:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | usually & followed by a space is safe to rewrite | Jul 29 18:57 |
| Techrights-sec2 | Yes the task is complicated by the fact that negative lookaheads must be | Jul 29 18:59 |
| Techrights-sec2 | fixed length | Jul 29 18:59 |
| Techrights-sec2 | in practicce | Jul 29 18:59 |

| schestowitz-TR | and it makes processing more efficient too | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | there are fulls who werite plain text emails with <url> | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | when they could use some other forms | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | not sure if some microsoft 'mail' 'clients' reinforced it | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | but it gives me manual work | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | some 5 or so years ago, when emoji became common I started HAVING to double check that anything I posted in TM | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | was not quitly truncated at the first occurance encountered of an emmoji P.O.S. | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | wordpress can deal OK with these | Jul 29 19:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | not sure how amfora and some cli/ncurses interfaces deal with emojis in gewmini | Jul 29 19:46 |

| Techrights-sec2 | yes that's one example [url] would have been safe or parseable | Jul 29 19:54 |
| Techrights-sec2 | not sure. emoji are a terrible waste of resources, not computer resources as | Jul 29 19:54 |
| Techrights-sec2 | much as human attention and effort | Jul 29 19:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | afaik they elongate bit length of each char in the set | Jul 29 19:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | so not worth the supposed "savings" they give in terms of data contained | Jul 29 19:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | also, to render them you need to store many glyphs tou will never use or see | Jul 29 19:54 |

| schestowitz-TR | slow news today, but not much "annoying" news that I can see so far | Jul 29 20:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | so that's good | Jul 29 20:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | disruption to poisitive advocacy is Microsoft throwing wrenches at the cogs | Jul 29 20:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | but then again the UEFI thing is obnoxious and they infiltrate a lot of orgs (not | Jul 29 20:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | any NEW ones that I can see) | Jul 29 20:01 |
| Techrights-sec2 | ack | Jul 29 20:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | btw, I lacked the time yesterday to point out two articles about servers and Microsoft | Jul 29 20:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | one was about azure being utter shit | Jul 29 20:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | the other was the latest netcraft report showing shrap decreased for Microsoft again | Jul 29 20:04 |
| *britney (~britney@muarsy2vret2q.irc) has joined #boycottnovell | Jul 29 20:05 | |
| schestowitz-TR | each time I mention the decline of WIndows I will point out how they cheat and break the law | Jul 29 20:06 |

| schestowitz-TR | the other was the latest netcraft report showing shrap decreased for Microsoft again | Jul 29 20:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | a lot of busineses move to apache/nginx during the pandemic | Jul 29 20:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | microsoft knows it's too expensive to lie to them | Jul 29 20:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | and so it's trying to swallow the migrants and become a "linux host" | Jul 29 20:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | it has not worked so far | Jul 29 20:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's a money sinkhole | Jul 29 20:06 |
| Techrights-sec2 | good | Jul 29 20:06 |
| Techrights-sec2 | can you send the URLs? | Jul 29 20:06 |
| Techrights-sec2 | yes | Jul 29 20:06 |

| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-ddumont.wordpress.com | How I investigated connection hogs on Kubernetes | Dominique Dumont's Blog | Jul 29 20:07 | |
| schestowitz-TR | I think I might expand my script to git show when new changes are commited so I can see the diff, not just outline | Jul 29 20:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | but there might be limitations in the trigger | Jul 29 20:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | I now have a tall windows showing the changes | Jul 29 20:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | and beeping | Jul 29 20:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | re azure, maybe I'l do an article this weekend, I put that as an idea in my notes for now | Jul 29 20:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | there's also the 2 microsoft series | Jul 29 20:17 |
| Techrights-sec2 | as mentioned earlier, the script /home/git/tuxmachines.org/hooks/update | Jul 29 20:18 |
| Techrights-sec2 | runs on the server any time it receive changes and that can be used to fire | Jul 29 20:18 |
| Techrights-sec2 | up a notification script so that the inefficent polling method can be avoided | Jul 29 20:18 |
| Techrights-sec2 | added two quick shell scripts (with AWK) to cull the bad addresses and add them | Jul 29 20:33 |
| Techrights-sec2 | to the blacklisted set | Jul 29 20:33 |
| Techrights-sec2 | they're run manually; I'll put them in to a separate tmux session | Jul 29 20:33 |
| Techrights-sec2 | modified the nftables rules to have a named set for blocking bad addresses | Jul 29 20:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | I think I found >3 options for making git pull a bit more verbose | Jul 29 20:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | when new changes are available | Jul 29 20:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | but will have that tested when you push things | Jul 29 20:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | yes, anything running in tmux would help | Jul 29 20:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | tuxmachines already has one tmux session running with top in it | Jul 29 20:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | with gnu screen I know how to atach by id | Jul 29 20:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | tmux I don't know how to | Jul 29 20:37 |
| Techrights-sec2 | ok? | Jul 29 20:37 |
| Techrights-sec2 | "tmux ls" will show the names of the sessions available to the current account | Jul 29 20:38 |
| Techrights-sec2 | ctrl-b d | Jul 29 20:38 |
| Techrights-sec2 | detaches the session | Jul 29 20:38 |
| Techrights-sec2 | anyway, the two quick scripts ought to quiet the logs substantially | Jul 29 20:39 |
| Techrights-sec2 | we can check tomorrow what other criteria can be added | Jul 29 20:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | which account does that session run udner? | Jul 29 20:40 |
| Techrights-sec2 | it has to run under root because it uses nft but I guess I could add a | Jul 29 20:40 |
| Techrights-sec2 | wrapper or something and then run it via sudo, right now it's just quick | Jul 29 20:40 |
| Techrights-sec2 | sloppy, hopefully not too sloppy; | Jul 29 20:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | ok, hang on | Jul 29 20:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | what's the syntax for attach? | Jul 29 20:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | I tried -L | Jul 29 20:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | but looks like it make a new session | Jul 29 20:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | OK, I see you have another persistent session there for development | Jul 29 20:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | on user TM I have a mostly useless placeholder session too | Jul 29 20:50 |
| Techrights-sec2 | yes | Jul 29 20:52 |
| Techrights-sec2 | it has been necessary while setting up git, the accounts, and juggling the | Jul 29 20:52 |
| Techrights-sec2 | configurations and file system permissions | Jul 29 20:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | with disconnections and blackouts (outages) I guess this becomes ever more essential an approach | Jul 29 20:52 |
| Techrights-sec2 | I would agree | Jul 29 20:53 |
| Techrights-sec2 | I'm not sure how to let one session have priority over the layout so I'll leave | Jul 29 20:57 |
| Techrights-sec2 | it alone for now; | Jul 29 20:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | just neede to find windows size that tmux can reconcile for all attendees | Jul 29 20:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | I made a typo, it's not meant to show feed requests | Jul 29 20:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | fyw i only work monday, once, for the next 8 days | Jul 29 21:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | i'm not committed to being awake 1-9 | Jul 29 21:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | i will get a 2-hour nap soon, then carry on | Jul 29 21:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | i'm super-happy about the new site (tr will be after this) and rianne likes it too | Jul 29 21:00 |
| Techrights-sec2 | excellent | Jul 29 21:00 |
| Techrights-sec2 | I'm glad it is considered a good thing | Jul 29 21:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | we can see how big a task it is. summertime is quiet enough. | Jul 29 21:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | also, for the sites to grow they need a proper, not general-purpose platform e.g. for automated | Jul 29 21:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | video processing so that I don't have to "f*ck around" with video editors | Jul 29 21:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | editing videos can make production take 5-10 times longer | Jul 29 21:02 |
| Techrights-sec2 | yes it is fortunate that it is still technically summer in the northern | Jul 29 21:03 |
| Techrights-sec2 | hemisphere | Jul 29 21:03 |
| Techrights-sec2 | or longer | Jul 29 21:03 |
| Techrights-sec2 | editing can be quite slow even without waiting for the computer | Jul 29 21:03 |
| schestowitz-TR | from personal experience, doing a well-cujt 2-minute rms video clip can take half an hour | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | not counting preparing special clips | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | now, all I do is supply video time range, enter title, choose filename | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | then I just wait | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | the time range is for gif preview | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | file management and checksums are part of the script already | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | in robertson's case, a one-day video (research, recording, editing) can be removed by gulag | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | for no good reason and appeals are handled by bots, if at all | Jul 29 21:06 |
| Techrights-sec2 | ack | Jul 29 21:06 |
| Techrights-sec2 | if at all ... | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | that's not the first time I heard of such things, it happened also a decade ago in atheist channels | Jul 29 21:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | and other political stuff I frequented | Jul 29 21:06 |
