[00:28] MinceR the best scenario for them is to become a colony of red china [00:28] MinceR he's an idiot if he thinks that [00:28] MinceR well, he's an idiot anyway [00:29] MinceR he could have shut up and lived the few years he had remaining in power, comfort and silence [00:29] MinceR and then his offspring could have lived off their ill-gotten riches [00:30] MinceR instead, he pretty much destroyed russia [00:32] frog i wouldn't want to underestimate russian industry and science [00:32] frog and the nordstream pipeline project, is just one example, of remarkable industrial craftsmenship [00:32] MinceR the russian engineers and scientists have already left the country [00:32] frog too the Russians are a capable nuclear force, civil and military [00:32] MinceR so has the capital [00:33] MinceR and no one is going to trip over their own feet to get back [00:33] frog the Akademik Lomonosov, is another such crazy Russian piece of technology [00:33] MinceR 04 013236 < frog> and the nordstream pipeline project, is just one example, of remarkable industrial craftsmenship [00:33] MinceR also not a russian one [00:34] frog and i think it is disrepectful towards Russia, to discredit the industrial and economic capabilities of all of them [00:34] MinceR too bad [00:34] MinceR your fuhrer was also disrespectful towards russia [00:35] XRevan86 > But Zaluzhny also respected and admired the institutions of his Russian counterparts. In his office, he keeps the collected works of General Valery Gerasimov, the head of the Russian armed forces, who is 17 years his senior. [00:35] XRevan86 > I was raised on Russian military doctrine, and I still think that the science of war is all located in Russia, Zaluzhny says. I learned from Gerasimov. I read everything he ever wrote He is the smartest of men, and my expectations of him were enormous. [00:35] XRevan86 I'll quote this again. [00:35] XRevan86 frog: I want you to understand something. [00:35] frog ok [00:35] MinceR lol [00:35] XRevan86 frog: Russia has potential, it has science, it has engineers. [00:36] MinceR you forgot the past tense [00:36] XRevan86 MinceR: For the sake of simplicity. [00:36] MinceR what russia still has is corruption and totalitarianism [00:36] frog MinceR: which couldn't be worse than the "EU" [00:36] frog anyway [00:36] XRevan86 frog: But the regime is such a disorganised repressive mess that everything that's trying to grow in Russia is getting stomped instantly. [00:37] frog you know, it's no secret, how much I appreciate the "EU" flavor of this [00:38] XRevan86 And the freakiest thing is that Putin and his government don't even realise just how bad the situation is. [00:38] frog exactly [00:38] XRevan86 They got Russia into this mess because of that. They thought they're powerful like Nazi Germany that can overpower little Ukraine in days. [00:39] frog in germany, they are still haunting all sorts of weird phantasies of "renewable" energy, and "digitalization", and "carbon neutral" economy [00:39] frog anyway [00:40] XRevan86 All of Russia's prowess under Putin was no more than phantoms, and this war is Russia's reality check. [00:40] frog it too is, for "germany" [00:40] frog and their "support for Ukraine" [00:41] frog which i receive energy bills for, result being i got books to burn for heating next [00:42] XRevan86 Potemkin villages can't win a war. [00:42] MinceR 04 013637 < frog> MinceR: which couldn't be worse than the "EU" [00:42] MinceR only according to ruscists [00:42] MinceR 04 013652 < XRevan86> frog: But the regime is such a disorganised repressive mess that everything that's trying to grow in Russia is getting stomped instantly. [00:42] MinceR the same thing is going on in hungary [00:43] MinceR also, i see it's still february in aggi's mind [00:43] MinceR Endless February [00:46] MinceR another thing authoritarians have trouble grasping is that corruption and totalitarianism are both fatal to science and technology [00:53] XRevan86 immibis: I recognise Russian propaganda a lot in what he describes. [00:54] XRevan86 One big difference though is that Russian propaganda is not interested in winning an argument, it's trying to shield itself from outside interference. [00:56] XRevan86 "in winning an argument" <- I mean in a way where there is an active discussion. [00:59] XRevan86 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kettle_logic That's exactly it! [00:59] -TechPolBot/#techpol-en.wikipedia.org | Kettle logic - Wikipedia [00:59] XRevan86 How did I not know this term? This is Russian propaganda. ● Oct 04 [01:04] immibis frog: You receive energy bills because you agreed to pay whatever Russia wanted you to pay [01:04] immibis frog: If you didn't like that, you should have not signed up for that.

[01:14] frog i got work to do, piling up to the roof, i wanted to hire staff even [01:14] XRevan86 And the Berliner who said that he doesn't pay anything for gas as he doesn't use gas. [01:15] immibis frog: Of course you signed something. [01:16] immibis frog: If you didn't sign anything agreeing to use energy and receive energy bills, then, you can simply ignore the bills, as long as you didn't use any energy. [01:16] immibis frog: did you use any energy from the energy company? [01:16] XRevan86 immibis: Are ye German? [01:17] immibis XRevan86: bin ich Deutsch? Natrlich nicht [01:17] frog immibis: this is the current price estimate, when energy consumed is ZERO, the basic free electricity and heating, is 800Euros/year, for ZERO consumption. [01:17] immibis XRevan86: I know that in Germany, normally you agree to this as part of your rental contract. [01:17] frog that's "electricity" and "heating", and i NEVER signed any of this [01:17] immibis frog: If you didn't sign anything, they have no legal basis to charge you. But you did. [01:18] XRevan86 immibis: I also managed to get out of frog the information that he has a landlord. [01:18] frog right, there is no legal basis for this, it's just illegal what they did. [01:18] immibis frog: I'm told by a German person that it's also normal to pay a fixed amount monthly for energy, and then pay/get paid the difference once a year [01:18] frog *basic fee [01:18] immibis based on the actual meter readings [01:19] frog i will do the following however, calculat the REAL prize of cents/kWh paid [01:19] immibis frog: You will do the following: learn how and why energy is billed in Germany [01:19] XRevan86 immibis: Ye can't force him to take care of himself %) [01:19] immibis frog: You will then learn how you signed up for it. Was it in your rental contract? Probably. [01:19] frog wrong again, they insinst on payment for NOTHING [01:19] immibis frog: You will find your rental contract, and read it. [01:20] frog yes, i got this rental contract, and nowhere does it state to pay 155Euro/month for NOTHING [01:20] frog and label this "heating" or "energy" [01:20] frog or 2Euro/kWh [01:20] frog which too is ILLEGAL (Wucher) [01:21] immibis frog: And who is the bill from? [01:21] frog too, FRAUD, is illegal, and a CRIMINAL offense [01:21] immibis frog: Germans are more litigious than Americans. Sue whoever sent you the bill. [01:21] frog immibis: very good question. the recent letter i got, too is full of rubbish [01:22] frog "gas allocation fee [01:22] immibis what is the german term? [01:22] frog "gas allocation fee" "gas storage fee" "SLP balancing fee" "gas re-allocation fee"... wtf is this? [01:22] immibis sue them [01:23] frog Gasbeschaffungsumlage, Gasspeicherumlage, SLP-Bilanzierungsumlage, and, from the government, Gasumlage [01:23] frog officially, it was supposed to be one such "Umlage", in the letter here, they say it's three of those [01:23] immibis frog: This is written in German - does it answer anything? https://www.bundesnetzagentur.de/DE/Fachthemen/ElektrizitaetundGas/Versorgungssicherheit/aktuelle_gasversorgung/_func_faq/THE_FAQ_Speicher_Gasumlage.pdf?__blob=publicationFile&v=1 [01:23] -TechPolBot/#techpol-Missing content type. Ignoring. [01:24] immibis TechPolBot is just too cowardly to download the file and check the magic number [01:24] frog my progonisis is, they intend to bill 175Euros/month (electricity and heating) even when ZERO energy is consumed, and label it "energy" [01:24] frog and that's only "energy" and "heating" [01:24] immibis who is "they"? [01:24] frog GOOD QUESTION, who are they? [01:25] immibis It is normal in many countries that if you sign up for something like internet or electricity, you have to pay some amount just for the connection, and then pay for the amount you use as well [01:25] immibis frog: WELL WHOSE NAME IS ON THE BILL [01:25] frog well, again, difficult question; the landlord/owner of the flat is residing in Munich somewhere, and the owner contracts a manager [01:25] XRevan86 "who are they?" <- Haven't ye watched They Live? Aliens. [01:25] frog the manager contracts an energy-service-metering company [01:26] frog btw. the metering itself too is FRAUDULENT [01:26] immibis frog: And you agreed to have energy service? [01:26] frog i signed a contract to rent this flat, 10 years ago, and since then even cut down energy requirements ~50% [01:26] immibis what does your rental contract say about energy? [01:26] immibis are you a member of the mieterverein? [01:26] frog there is no legal basis in the renting contract to introduce any such "Umlagen" [01:27] immibis well then sue them [01:27] frog forget about this nonsense [01:27] immibis or rather, ask a lawyer first [01:27] frog i got neither money nor time for this [01:27] frog immibis: lol, how should i pay for a lawyer [01:27] frog with what? [01:27] XRevan86 "shitcoins" [01:28] immibis frog: I take it you are not a member of your local mieterverein [01:28] XRevan86 I'm sorry for interjecting jokes into this conversation where an adult is trying to potty train a frog. [01:29] frog immibis: i want to leave this shithole ghetto [01:29] frog but cannot afford this either [01:29] immibis frog: then do so. Nobody is stopping you except investors. [01:29] immibis who happen to control society [01:29] frog because, they robbed and looted and plundered me for almost 20 years now [01:29] immibis in this case "they" is investors. [01:32] immibis frog: if I understand this machine translation well enough, the Gas***umlage is a penalty for being stupid enough to have your home connected to Russian gas. [01:32] immibis Because the prices for Russian gas increased, you have to pay the higher price. [01:32] XRevan86 https://neuters.de/world/us-send-mobile-rocket-launchers-ukraine-625-mln-aid-package-officials-2022-10-03/ [01:32] -TechPolBot/#techpol-neuters.de | U.S. to send mobile rocket launchers to Ukraine in $625 mln aid package -officials [01:32] immibis even if you had a fixed price contract, the force majeure scenario caused the government to allow suppliers to break their fixed-price contracts. Or something like that [01:33] frog immibis: yes, i do want to disconnect from this grid, and do the little heating and warm water with electricity [01:33] immibis frog: Then do it. [01:33] frog immibis: but i can't, i have no choice, and they will continue to bill this "basic fee" [01:33] immibis frog: then free market capitalism says you are welcome to find another apartment without a gas connection, or lobby your landlord to disconnect it [01:33] frog that's not the "cold rent" either, the "basic fee" of 30% of something what i wouldn't know that is [01:34] frog immibis: i already did tell he should disconnect this, he said he'll throw me out [01:34] frog and as far as the "market" was concerned, that's a whole other discussion [01:35] frog reminder, 2 "currency reforms" since 1990, and everything expropriated [01:35] immibis frog: Germany has strong tenant protections. And greedy leechlords (like every capitalist country) who will extort all your money. [01:35] immibis even when it's illegal for them to do that [01:35] immibis hence, you would have to contact a lawyer [01:35] immibis can't afford to? Then tough, you are homeless now, have fun [01:35] frog i haven't got the time for this nor the money [01:35] frog i want to LEAVE [01:35] immibis frog: Then you are homeless. have fun! [01:36] frog and i want back MY homeland! [01:36] immibis frog: where is your homeland? [01:36] immibis as a frog, is it the swamp where Berlin used to be? [01:36] immibis well, where Berlin is now* [01:36] frog another good question, because this one is occupied by usurpers and murderous criminals [01:36] immibis frog: that's capitalism [01:37] frog which is why, that's no place to go to anymore either [01:37] frog meaning, too before, any foreign agents and criminals had to leave from there, all of them, before i could ever set a foot on the ground in MY HOME [01:38] XRevan86 immibis: "Because the prices for Russian gas increased, you have to pay the higher price" <- Not Russian, Germany is forced to get it from other sources. [01:38] frog immibis: it's not capitalizm, it's ethnocide, and murder [01:39] frog and it's not russian gas, it's their re-selling trading surplus margins, plus another 7 taxes on top of it [01:39] frog that's why, ZERO energy, with an estimate of mine, is billed with ~800Euros/year to come [01:39] frog because, thats "carbon neutral" [01:39] frog as far as i am concerned, they may burn their paper money for heating, and eat the shit they excrete [01:40] immibis XRevan86: well the price for russian gas is infinity, be glad they found a way to lower it [01:40] immibis frog: you're still talking about capitalism [01:40] frog no, it's not [01:41] XRevan86 "and it's not russian gas, it's their re-selling trading surplus margins, plus another 7 taxes on top of it" <- So when Norway extracts gas from the North Sea, is it re-selling Russian gas? [01:41] frog the fact they're blathering with capitalist terms, is unrelated to what they really are [01:41] frog one day they're loyal "liberals", next day the're "social democrats", or eco peace activists, i don't care how they label themselves [01:42] XRevan86 I have a strong suspicion that frog believes that Russia is the only country in the world that possesses natural gas. [01:42] frog XRevan86: Norway doesn't have the amount of gas for sale [01:42] frog furthermore, with the bill i received, it is NOT gas/energy, it's fraud and scam [01:42] XRevan86 frog: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a6/Countries_by_Natural_Gas_Proven_Reserves_%282014%29.svg What about other countries? [01:43] frog do you really intend to iterate over basics now? [01:43] XRevan86 When it comes to LNG, one doesn't have to rely on one single source. [01:43] immibis frog: I didn't find information in English about how this is calculted. Do you normally pay an estimated amount and then correct it once a year? Or do you have a smart meter? [01:43] frog there wasn't any shortage of supply of gas/energy/electricity/petrol [01:44] frog immibis: i got no access to the gas metering, and both the bill and the metering are FRAUDULENT [01:44] immibis yes there is [01:44] immibis If you have no access how do you know it's fraudulent? [01:44] immibis Did you use any gas this year? [01:44] frog yes, i can tell you how much water i used, for this i got a metering in cubic meters [01:45] immibis and how much gas did you use? [01:45] frog and too i know, my warm water usage was only ~50% of the average [01:45] frog with heating, i turned off all heaters, except one to prevent fungus, alltogether the heating is at most 15% of the average [01:46] frog immibis: i cannot say, because this bill estimates some arbitrary "Unit" for heating, and mixes this calculation together with warm water [01:46] frog and too it demands 30% basic fee based on whatever amount i do not know [01:47] frog all i can do is cut down heating to ZERO, and then i got cubic meters of hot water together with the cold-water influx temperature measured and the hot-water output [01:47] frog only from this i can calculate the REAL price [01:47] frog and the bill doesn't do it [01:47] frog yet, the bill isn't the only problem, too the recent "Umlagen" are total nonsense [01:48] XRevan86 frog: "do you really intend to iterate over basics now?" <- Not really, I'm intending to go to sleep. [01:48] frog XRevan86: sleep well. i'll depart too now. gn [01:48] XRevan86 But if ye will draw a coherent scheme of that Russian gas re-sell, I'll check it out. [01:48] immibis frog: they probably measured how much energy it takes to make a liter of hot water [01:49] *techrights_guest|83 (~5198ecf9@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techpol [01:49] XRevan86 If it's Russian LNG Japan LNG Germany, then that would be at least hilarious. [01:49] frog immibis: no, they do something else instead, confusing "shares of usge" with "shares of costs" [01:50] frog and those shares are based on an ARBITRARY "Unit" (Einheit), not any amount of energy (joule, kWh) [01:54] immibis how do you know the arbitrary unit is not a correct unit [01:54] immibis maybe they just wrote "unit" generically instead of "kWh" [01:54] *techrights_guest|8315 (~5198ecf9@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techpol [01:54] frog because i reduced consumption _another_ ~25%, and did not receive a refund, one hint [01:54] immibis we don't claim that court summons are invalid because they write IMMIBIS instead of ::immi:of:the:family:bis:: [01:55] immibis well i'd say step 1 is to understand how this stuff is calculated [01:55] *techrights_guest|8372 (~5198ecf9@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techpol [01:56] frog and recently, with my estimate, if i cut down warm water another 50% and cut down heating to ZERO, the DOUBLE the bill nonetheless, this is the estimate [01:57] *techrights_guest|83 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) [01:57] immibis that could be because the cost per unit went up [01:57] *techrights_guest|8372 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) [01:57] immibis it could also be because your meter is illegally connected to someone else's apartment [01:57] *techrights_guest|83 (~5198ecf9@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techpol [01:57] *techrights_guest|83 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) [01:57] *techrights_guest|83 (~5198ecf9@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techpol [01:57] frog ok, and then, i want to know, exactly, how many kWh(joule) and price/kWh [01:57] *techrights_guest|83 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) [01:57] *techrights_guest|8315 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) [01:58] frog immibis: if it is something at the scale of... who knows 1-2Euro/kWh then what [01:58] frog what is this? [01:58] frog and even when, "energy" consumption was cut down to zero, what's the total basic fee then per year for "electricity" and "heating" [01:58] immibis you need to find the law where it says bills have to be clear, and then you tell your landlord you'll sue them, and if they try to evict you, you say you'll double-sue them because it's illegal to evict someone for suing you [01:58] immibis (which it presumably is, if they did something sue-able) [01:59] immibis and then if they actually evict you, you double-sue them [01:59] frog fraud is not only illegal, fraud is a CRIMINAL offense, including incarceration and compensation of damages [01:59] frog which is, fungus creeping up the walls in this shithole here [01:59] immibis ok then sue them ● Oct 04 [02:00] immibis that's what you do when someone hurts you with nonviolent illegality [02:00] frog and this, is a plausible argument, but not relevant in practice [02:00] frog and i too remember another legal proceeding at court here, and guess what. [02:00] frog forget about it [02:00] frog then i have to sue the court itself here [02:00] frog which is pushing beyond my abilities [02:01] frog besides the fact, there is other legal basis for sueing this criminal and murderous cartell: violation of my human rightrs [02:01] frog human rights, 20years that is now in total [02:01] frog yet with this, i had not even begun, to tell a little, what's going on, in "germany" [02:02] XRevan86 What's this "human rights" thing? [02:02] immibis the right to own property is inviolable, according to the german constitution [02:02] immibis that means your landlord has constitutional rights, and you don't [02:02] immibis by renting, you are trespassing on his rights [02:02] immibis but if you agree to be a slave, he will look the other way [02:02] immibis that's how capitalism works [02:03] frog wrong again, i am doing my work, and this is how capitalism works, to at least pay for work [02:03] frog yet even this, seems to push beyond the limits of their higher intellect here [02:04] TR News 3x3 https://www.mancity.com/citytv/mens/erling-haaland-manchester-city-hat-tricks-63800396 [02:04] -TechPolBot/#techpol-www.mancity.com | Watch: Erling Haaland's City hat-tricks [02:06] frog https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnocide [02:06] -TechPolBot/#techpol-en.wikipedia.org | Ethnocide - Wikipedia [02:06] immibis frog: Wrong.

[02:11] frog two "currency reforms", expropriations, looting plundering, population transfer, the propaganda one too is notable which was "unproductive" "uncompetive" "fascist piece of shit", 20 years [02:11] frog anyway, the recent "energy" bill, that's just a laughable minor piece [02:11] frog because, they had destroyed everything already [02:14] XRevan86 frog: Can ye elaborate on "what ethnicity?" and on "Speaker?"?

[05:48] highest_cubist_thrills I mean he literally said that he would ruin his career <- in those words? [05:48] schestowitz[tr3] gn [05:48] mjg59_ Yes [05:48] mjg59_ Was witnessed doing so by FSF staff [05:48] highest_cubist_thrills /me sighs [05:49] mjg59_ And was confirmed by the board member in question [05:50] mjg59_ Anyway, my position is not that rms is fundamentally evil or anything [05:50] highest_cubist_thrills no i realise that [05:50] highest_cubist_thrills i also dont think hes fundamentally transphobic either [05:51] highest_cubist_thrills unreasonable, disrespectful, if he REFUSES to use they even "problematic" [05:51] highest_cubist_thrills though my love for catchall typing does not extend to "problematic" [05:51] highest_cubist_thrills its like keleven.

[05:55] mjg59_ I didn't spend much time engaging with him before that, so I don't know [05:55] highest_cubist_thrills Several people have suggested that Eben's behaviour changed some time around 2015 <- what year was this threat? [05:56] highest_cubist_thrills i dont think everyone who signed the anti-rms letter are traitors btw. [05:56] highest_cubist_thrills ariadne for example, has stated her intentions well enough that i think evaluating her as an enemy is unfair or unwarranted or at least unnecessary [05:56] mjg59_ The threat was 2018 [05:56] highest_cubist_thrills i really wish [05:57] highest_cubist_thrills and i can see arguments (good or otherwise) for either approach [05:57] highest_cubist_thrills but i REALLY wish your campaign had focused on eben (who i like) rather than rms [05:57] highest_cubist_thrills https://wwahammy.com/on-safety-at-libreplanet/ [05:57] -TechPolBot/#techpol-wwahammy.com | Is LibrePlanet Safe?

[06:00] highest_cubist_thrills if someone is a dick to you without a fucking good reason-- your feelings are even more relevant. [06:00] highest_cubist_thrills but i dont assume money is the primary motivator here [06:00] highest_cubist_thrills nor do i assume youre the leader of the mob, if it has one [06:01] highest_cubist_thrills but you are the one most eager to be vindicated [06:01] highest_cubist_thrills perhaps because roy insists on using you as a sort of punching bag for the entire mob [06:01] highest_cubist_thrills which may be warranted-- but probably isnt [06:02] highest_cubist_thrills its symbolic [06:02] highest_cubist_thrills saddam wasnt a good guy for example, but iraq was about oil and money, not about saddam [06:03] highest_cubist_thrills youre not the mob, youre a symbol of the mob [06:03] highest_cubist_thrills also you and roy have been attacking each other (for various reasons) in an ongoing feud for years [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills his comments, your lawyer [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills and so on [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills hes done the same to me with no justification whatsoever [06:04] highest_cubist_thrills and he will always deny it, but i know that. [06:05] highest_cubist_thrills you arent the enemy of my enemy here, youre just a person who was at least part of the mob [06:05] highest_cubist_thrills who wont go away and insists on participating in discussions with the people who are on the sceptical side of all this [06:05] highest_cubist_thrills im well aware of the possibility youre just here to collect dirt like roy says you are [06:06] highest_cubist_thrills but there are other plausble possibilities as well [06:07] highest_cubist_thrills i want to know how the movement died [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills columbo would talk to everyone involved-- victims, suspects, family, friends [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills thats gives the best chance of learning wtf happened [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills roy is a monopolist [06:08] highest_cubist_thrills he wants to control who talks to whom [06:09] scientes highest_cubist_thrills, what if someone is talking to themselves? [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills he provides excuses for this, not reasons. i do not care what he thinks. he makes it up as he goes along. [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills he blame me for talking to you. [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills ive heard all his good reasons, the rest he stick up his arse. [06:09] highest_cubist_thrills camn [06:10] highest_cubist_thrills roy tells people not to do things [06:10] highest_cubist_thrills then he turns around and does them himself to get a story [06:10] highest_cubist_thrills he deosnt care about the facts [06:10] highest_cubist_thrills he only cares about pubilshing. [06:10] highest_cubist_thrills he will swear its not so. [06:10] highest_cubist_thrills well you know, if my leg is wet and a chemical analysis shows its 100% urine [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills i dont really need more information about what happened, do i [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills "there was rain that day, the forecast..." [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills "is unimportant, yes. unless the forecast called for piss" [06:11] highest_cubist_thrills a million irrelevant details add nothing [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills it isnt just the movement thats dead [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills all progress on finding out what happened has died with it [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills no one cares anymore [06:15] highest_cubist_thrills i mean, i can wait. [06:26] highest_cubist_thrills And the Eben stuff included rms refusing to let Columbia know about Eben's behaviour because that might have a negative impact on his career [06:26] highest_cubist_thrills im not sure how stallman has an ethical obligation to inform columbia of this [06:26] highest_cubist_thrills particularly where a (admittedly annoying) nda is involved [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills i think the nda culture at the fsf, even if a necessary evil, is deeply unfortunate [06:27] mjg59_ I think "This person who teaches students threatens people" is relevant information [06:27] mjg59_ And this was something that happened at a public event, so no NDA issue [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills i was not commenting on its relevance [06:27] highest_cubist_thrills so no NDA issue <- that sounds fair [06:28] highest_cubist_thrills did other people inform columbia? i presume so [06:28] mjg59_ Not to the best of my knowledge [06:28] highest_cubist_thrills why not? why does the responsibility fall squarely on rms? [06:28] highest_cubist_thrills more than anyone else i mean [06:28] mjg59_ At the time I didn't feel like there was any chance of Columbia taking it seriously unless it came from the FSF [06:29] mjg59_ Thinking about it since then, I should probably have done so anyway [06:29] highest_cubist_thrills surely someone at the fsf could have. kuhn seems a prime candidate. [06:29] highest_cubist_thrills I should probably have done so anyway <- you were on the board, right? [06:29] highest_cubist_thrills at the time i mean [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills i think if reported, columbia would have had to have taken it seriously [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills with that said, im as cynical about the rigours of academia as anyone else [06:30] highest_cubist_thrills moral ethical or otherwise [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills epstein, ffs [06:31] highest_cubist_thrills oh sorry harvard, my bad...

[06:58] highest_cubist_thrills it says more about the collapse of freesw than anything else [06:59] highest_cubist_thrills but it says other things too [06:59] highest_cubist_thrills xrevans coverage <- which moved here ofc ● Oct 04 [07:00] highest_cubist_thrills maybe dfc is saying interesting things but i lost interest at "eugenics" or whatever he calls it [07:01] highest_cubist_thrills its straight up eugenics, theres no distortion or mis-stating or anything like that [07:01] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techpol [07:01] highest_cubist_thrills some people are genetically fucked and the death penalty is a cure-- thats fucking eugenics [07:01] highest_cubist_thrills and the scale of it makes it all the more damning [07:02] highest_cubist_thrills well im sorry that [excuse i dont care about] makes you feel that way ryan [07:02] highest_cubist_thrills per your own logic, swallowing a gun will fix this 100% [07:02] highest_cubist_thrills of course there are other options. ditch the eugenics you gay nazi cunt. [07:03] highest_cubist_thrills but everybody wants the world to change before theyre willing to lift a finger. [07:03] highest_cubist_thrills oh i couldnt possibly! [07:04] highest_cubist_thrills it really is a miracle humanity still exists [07:04] highest_cubist_thrills and its a miracle that im rooting for humanity here. i could be like roy and become an animal supremacist. he totally is. [07:04] highest_cubist_thrills animals are good too [07:05] highest_cubist_thrills i could become a complete misanthrope like mincer, but at least hes amusing to talk with. [07:06] highest_cubist_thrills instead i hope for humanity. i really honestly do. i accept that its a bit insane [07:06] highest_cubist_thrills but im still on team human. [07:06] highest_cubist_thrills after all, they have a certain wild charm. [07:06] highest_cubist_thrills flawed, yes. but probably more good than bad. [07:07] highest_cubist_thrills theyre just a bit stupid at times. only on days ending in y. [07:07] highest_cubist_thrills i dont think we would be better off putting dogs or cats in charge. [07:08] highest_cubist_thrills gorillas: "if thats our future they might as well kill us now" [07:08] highest_cubist_thrills no, seriously. we owe it to the gorillas to get our shit together [07:09] highest_cubist_thrills not to mention we owe it to ourselves [07:10] highest_cubist_thrills the human race doesnt have a genetic problem. its more of a social disease. [07:10] highest_cubist_thrills i dont do eugenics [07:11] scientes highest_cubist_thrills, but do eugenics do you? [07:34] *DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving) ● Oct 04 [08:00] MinceR 04 065758 < highest_cubist_thrills> im sure ill never know who really led this [08:00] MinceR they pay people they hide behind [08:00] MinceR and those people have a responsibility in this. [08:03] MinceR 04 073835 < DaemonFC> Sounds like someone who probably doesn't have his immigration papers. [08:03] MinceR because they're not an immigrant? :> [08:04] highest_cubist_thrills the tactics are militant [08:04] highest_cubist_thrills the companies that benefit have military ties [08:04] highest_cubist_thrills im not naive about this. [08:05] highest_cubist_thrills theres little chance theres no monetary connection. [08:05] highest_cubist_thrills okay, theres ZERO chance. [08:05] highest_cubist_thrills the question is where did the money go to [08:06] highest_cubist_thrills lets create a fictional person, a placebo traitor for a moment [08:06] highest_cubist_thrills this person gets the bribe [08:06] highest_cubist_thrills and gets their right hand person to do it for free [08:07] highest_cubist_thrills or whatever arrangement [08:07] highest_cubist_thrills and then someone rallies the troops [08:07] highest_cubist_thrills who go into it for various reasons [08:07] highest_cubist_thrills kuhn is vindictive. the motive is obvious [08:07] highest_cubist_thrills we could be wrong but we arent [08:07] highest_cubist_thrills kuhn is one person of many [08:07] highest_cubist_thrills the guy from gnupg had a falling out with stallman years ago [08:08] highest_cubist_thrills everyone who was ever butthurt by rms came out for these events-- some or all of these events [08:08] highest_cubist_thrills lots of overlap between the 2018 and most recent coups [08:08] highest_cubist_thrills and the ones in between [08:08] highest_cubist_thrills overlap in names and participation and groups [08:08] highest_cubist_thrills maybe the money went to eff, i dont fucking know [08:08] highest_cubist_thrills maybe it went to mozilla [08:09] highest_cubist_thrills maybe it went LOTS of places [08:09] highest_cubist_thrills i dont believe for a moment that everyone involved got paid [08:09] highest_cubist_thrills some more than likely did [08:09] highest_cubist_thrills mostly the job was to find more people. [08:10] MinceR 04 080744 < highest_cubist_thrills> i dont think we would be better off putting dogs or cats in charge. [08:10] highest_cubist_thrills and get them to do it out of spite, "principle" or otherreasons [08:10] MinceR we wouldn't be better off with dogs, they're just like humans [08:10] highest_cubist_thrills so its abount money but for many, imo, it wasnt. [08:10] highest_cubist_thrills some just did it because they think a fucking terrible idea is a great idea [08:10] highest_cubist_thrills i think kuhn did it for revenge. this is my opinion [08:11] highest_cubist_thrills i think mjg is on a crusade, and thats his motivation. i could be wrong. [08:11] highest_cubist_thrills kuhn doesnt have a principle guiding him [08:11] highest_cubist_thrills im not saying that such "principles" among those that have them dont override honesty [08:11] highest_cubist_thrills only that differentpeople have different primary motivations [08:12] highest_cubist_thrills thats not as juicy as going through resumes and saying AHA! you worked for... [08:12] highest_cubist_thrills but [08:12] highest_cubist_thrills red hat, debian AND google all play big roles in this [08:12] highest_cubist_thrills the industry wanted blood, it got blood [08:13] highest_cubist_thrills mjg worked at red hat AND google AND volunteeed for debian [08:13] highest_cubist_thrills but then again [08:13] highest_cubist_thrills it could have been any (or all, or none) of those hats [08:14] highest_cubist_thrills i mean, im sure he didnt just wake up and say "gee i wonder if anyone is violating my pet cau-- OMG, NOT STALLMAN TOO!" [08:14] highest_cubist_thrills more like red hat and/or debian and/or google said [08:14] highest_cubist_thrills "i bet mjg will be on board with this" [08:15] highest_cubist_thrills there are so many possibilities. i dont give a damn about which one is juiciest [08:15] MinceR no one just woke up and said that [08:15] highest_cubist_thrills mjg is interesting because he seems very near the centre/beginning of this [08:15] highest_cubist_thrills doesnt mean hes the leader. [08:15] MinceR they had to imagine things to have a case in the first place [08:16] highest_cubist_thrills kuhn i think also likely [08:16] highest_cubist_thrills mjg says its not kuhn [08:16] highest_cubist_thrills the fsf has been sucking hard since 2011. [08:16] highest_cubist_thrills i didnt want to destroy it, i wanted to save it. [08:16] highest_cubist_thrills its dead now. [08:16] MinceR presumably someone at dehomag or MICROS~1 said "i bet mjg will be a part of this for cheap" [08:16] highest_cubist_thrills im not going to assume he was bribed. [08:16] highest_cubist_thrills sure anythings possible. [08:17] highest_cubist_thrills id rather build my picture from evidence [08:17] highest_cubist_thrills i use speculation too! to figure out where to look next. [08:17] highest_cubist_thrills and to piece together possible theories. [08:17] highest_cubist_thrills thats how every scientists uses speculation (they prefer "hypothesis") [08:17] MinceR we'll never see the bills [08:17] highest_cubist_thrills i know [08:17] highest_cubist_thrills but for me its enough to say "you were part of this" [08:18] highest_cubist_thrills i dont need to say "and YOU PERSONALLY are on the take" [08:18] highest_cubist_thrills when we will never prove it [08:18] highest_cubist_thrills SOME WERE clearly on the take [08:18] highest_cubist_thrills motivations vary-- i doubt very much that NO ONE did it for the cash. [08:18] highest_cubist_thrills i doubt even more that every player was paid for it [08:19] highest_cubist_thrills people who are in it for they money usually care more about money. [08:19] highest_cubist_thrills i think trying to paint mjg as in it for the money is a dead end. [08:19] highest_cubist_thrills i mean, why not look at who he is and what hes like [08:19] highest_cubist_thrills i dont see a money guy. [08:19] highest_cubist_thrills why cant he just be a zealot? [08:19] highest_cubist_thrills thats not bad enough? its too nice? [08:20] highest_cubist_thrills as long as im trying to take a scientific approach [08:20] highest_cubist_thrills im going to go with the theories that make the most sense to me given what i know [08:20] highest_cubist_thrills i think mjg is the zealot in this play, not the hired hitman [08:20] highest_cubist_thrills of course he could be both, i havent ruled that out [08:21] highest_cubist_thrills but as you said, we wont ever see the evidence of that [08:21] highest_cubist_thrills i think kuhn did it out of sheer spite and envy. [08:21] highest_cubist_thrills he wants to be stallman. [08:21] highest_cubist_thrills daddy doesnt approve enough. [08:21] highest_cubist_thrills so he threw daddy under the bus. [08:21] MinceR why won't zealots care about what was actually said? [08:22] MinceR what sort of zealot makes up a case to stand behind? [08:22] highest_cubist_thrills because truth > truth [08:22] MinceR lol [08:22] highest_cubist_thrills hey, i know how zealots work. [08:22] highest_cubist_thrills so do you [08:22] highest_cubist_thrills everybody lied [08:22] highest_cubist_thrills everybody was willing to sign lies [08:23] highest_cubist_thrills some may have been more aware of what they were doing than others [08:23] highest_cubist_thrills some may have truly believed the lies [08:23] highest_cubist_thrills thats not a complete excuse. it mitigates it a bit if they thought it was true. [08:23] highest_cubist_thrills at least one person unsigned. that set a good example regardless of the motivations. [08:23] MinceR then they signed something without looking into whether it was true or not [08:23] highest_cubist_thrills and im not defending that. [08:23] highest_cubist_thrills its still wrong. [08:24] MinceR with intent to harm someone for doing something they did not know if they did [08:24] highest_cubist_thrills but thinking its true and signing irresponsibly [08:24] MinceR it's seriously fucked up [08:24] highest_cubist_thrills and knowing its bullshit and not caring [08:24] highest_cubist_thrills are two different shades of fucked in this story [08:24] highest_cubist_thrills i mean [08:24] highest_cubist_thrills knowing its bullshit and not caring will always be worse [08:24] highest_cubist_thrills i think kuhn knew better [08:25] highest_cubist_thrills hes not a holy man, just an ambitious prick [08:25] MinceR it's a fucked up way for a society to operate, and then the MICROS~1/dehomag shill calls Roy a transphobe for standing up against a cancel mob [08:25] highest_cubist_thrills well i dont think roy is a transphobe. [08:25] MinceR humans are fucking disgusting [08:26] highest_cubist_thrills i dont think hes much of ally either, but the opinions of starstreak and leah and ariadne on that matter more to me than my own opinion or mjgs [08:26] highest_cubist_thrills so w/e, they can vote on that [08:26] highest_cubist_thrills but i dont think hes a transphobe anyway [08:27] highest_cubist_thrills mjg has given me two new things to wonder about [08:27] highest_cubist_thrills both are interesting, of course im sceptical, no secret is made of that-- he knows i dont trust him [08:27] highest_cubist_thrills my attitude is columbo [08:27] highest_cubist_thrills talk to everyone, see what they say [08:28] highest_cubist_thrills he spends more time talking to people he KNOWS are lying. [08:28] highest_cubist_thrills you can learn plenty from liars. [08:28] highest_cubist_thrills liars reveal information too [08:28] highest_cubist_thrills that includes people who believe theyre honest but lie to themselves [08:29] highest_cubist_thrills so yeah columbo doesnt turn his nose up at any interview [08:29] highest_cubist_thrills and while i dont think hes the worlds greatest detective, i think that approach is reasonable. [08:29] MinceR how do you find out which parts are the true ones? [08:29] highest_cubist_thrills its what detectives in general do [08:29] highest_cubist_thrills well when you talk to liars [08:30] highest_cubist_thrills you have to learn how to spot lies [08:30] highest_cubist_thrills its not impossible to do, its just extre work [08:30] highest_cubist_thrills you find inconsistencies [08:30] highest_cubist_thrills ive reasoned my way out of cults [08:30] highest_cubist_thrills cults are collectives that bullshit each other and everyone around them [08:31] highest_cubist_thrills they use incredibly social pressure, just like the cancel people [08:31] highest_cubist_thrills im not saying im an investigative genius-- ill probably never wrap up this mystery [08:31] highest_cubist_thrills but it matters anyway [08:32] highest_cubist_thrills the history of the free sw movement is mostly whats left of it. [08:32] highest_cubist_thrills the death is a very important chapter [08:32] highest_cubist_thrills i predicted a number of events in it [08:32] highest_cubist_thrills but im just as interested in it looking back [08:32] highest_cubist_thrills piecing together new things from new clues [08:32] highest_cubist_thrills some inconsistencies are just complexity [08:32] highest_cubist_thrills some complexities are just inconsistencies and bullshit [08:33] highest_cubist_thrills lies, misdirection [08:33] highest_cubist_thrills but its not impossible to find your way through bullshit [08:33] highest_cubist_thrills its just very tedious and sometimes youre never done [08:33] highest_cubist_thrills other times you get lucky [08:34] highest_cubist_thrills anytime someone lies they could be revealing an inconsistency, handing you a clue that something is UNTRUE [08:34] highest_cubist_thrills and this can be a huge clue sometimes [08:34] highest_cubist_thrills leading you right to a piece of information that is true and useful [08:34] highest_cubist_thrills you throw in a hook, sometimes you get a shoe [08:34] highest_cubist_thrills or nothing [08:34] highest_cubist_thrills or a tiny insignificant fish [08:35] highest_cubist_thrills or a catch [08:35] highest_cubist_thrills but this chapter of free software history is the key to the next chapter [08:36] highest_cubist_thrills its going to matter regardless of whether this or that person cares or not [08:36] MinceR :) [08:37] highest_cubist_thrills roy is good at finding pieces [08:37] highest_cubist_thrills sometimes he even fits them together reasonably [08:37] highest_cubist_thrills mostly my opinion of him has lowered over time [08:37] highest_cubist_thrills but hey, credit where credit is due [08:37] highest_cubist_thrills ever since cola this has been his hobby [08:39] highest_cubist_thrills i think gnu.fools is at least as egregious as anything else that happened [08:39] highest_cubist_thrills yeah im still angry about the stallman betrayal years later [08:39] highest_cubist_thrills gnu.fools straight up sends gnu trademark to the public domain [08:40] highest_cubist_thrills while ibm (a software patent troll) goes after the gcc copyright [08:40] highest_cubist_thrills ibm will appropriate gcc. [08:40] highest_cubist_thrills maybe theyll fail. no evidence they will. [08:40] highest_cubist_thrills dr sixel isnt wrong, no ones going to fork it [08:41] highest_cubist_thrills clang you cant even compile. forking is harder. [08:41] highest_cubist_thrills icecat isnt worth compiling. maybe im wrong. seems like its not. [08:41] highest_cubist_thrills oh sure-- lets take an out of date source [08:41] highest_cubist_thrills and compile it even though it takes forever. [08:41] highest_cubist_thrills and doesnt work. [08:41] highest_cubist_thrills so we can have shit. [08:41] highest_cubist_thrills i mean, icecat is based on mozilla, all browsers suck. [08:42] highest_cubist_thrills but i mean [08:42] MinceR there were many attempts to fix failfox and afaik all of them failed [08:42] highest_cubist_thrills i know [08:42] highest_cubist_thrills tor browser is the least shit of them [08:42] highest_cubist_thrills it even fails to load many websites-- thats progress :) [08:42] MinceR i doubt tor browser is even trying to fix it [08:42] highest_cubist_thrills i mean im sceptical [08:42] MinceR it's just that i don't really care if i get audio in it [08:42] highest_cubist_thrills i dont use tb to play media at all [08:43] highest_cubist_thrills but how are we going to have free software [08:43] highest_cubist_thrills if we dont even have a compiler [08:44] highest_cubist_thrills gcc is practically a blob [08:44] highest_cubist_thrills clang is worse [08:44] highest_cubist_thrills i have no answers on this. [08:44] MinceR we have free software written in other languages that have free self-hosted implementations [08:44] highest_cubist_thrills gcc is the lesser evil. thats probably why ibm wants to control it [08:44] highest_cubist_thrills theyre not a good company. theyre about as bad as a company gets. [08:44] highest_cubist_thrills microsoft is worse-- microsoft IS ibm. [08:45] highest_cubist_thrills ibm has many faces. microsoft is one of them [08:45] MinceR it might also be possible to reimplement support for OOP, namespaces, modules and other useful stuff in macros of a c-based lisp-like language like c-mera and lisp/c [08:45] MinceR and use that on top of a c-only compiler [08:46] highest_cubist_thrills so you think the compiler problem can be solved? [08:46] MinceR yes [08:46] highest_cubist_thrills i mean i am interested in what engineers think sometimes [08:46] MinceR in theory [08:46] highest_cubist_thrills i wanted to be one once. thankfully i got over it [08:46] highest_cubist_thrills theory is where these things start [08:46] highest_cubist_thrills airplane and space rockets started with theory [08:47] highest_cubist_thrills i dare say programming did [08:47] highest_cubist_thrills ada invented the loop. probably not the first [08:47] highest_cubist_thrills but ive seen her program [08:48] highest_cubist_thrills she basically invented jmp [08:48] highest_cubist_thrills the much maligned, much misunderstood jmp [08:49] highest_cubist_thrills ibm needs to be stopped [08:49] highest_cubist_thrills humanity deserves better-- you dont have to agree [08:49] highest_cubist_thrills i insist [08:49] highest_cubist_thrills mjg wont stop them [08:49] highest_cubist_thrills neither will techrights [08:50] highest_cubist_thrills neither would the best tech blog on earth imo [08:50] highest_cubist_thrills idk what will [08:50] MinceR humanity deserves what it makes [08:50] MinceR if it comes up with something better, then it will deserve it [08:50] highest_cubist_thrills im glad you agree [08:50] MinceR if the majority allies with the nuclear terrorists and kills the species off, then that's what humanity deserves [08:50] highest_cubist_thrills if ibm running the world is the best humanity can do [08:51] highest_cubist_thrills i dont mind as much then if it kills itself [08:51] highest_cubist_thrills but [08:51] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techpol [08:51] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techpol [08:51] highest_cubist_thrills ngl, i have slightly more faith in humanity than tht [08:51] highest_cubist_thrills im very curious how long this shits gonna take [08:51] highest_cubist_thrills fucking humanity loves to wait until the last minute [08:54] highest_cubist_thrills id love to prove that moglen was justified in whatever he did [08:55] highest_cubist_thrills i mean getting rid of him as counsil, for going agains the client, which he might have done makes sense [08:55] highest_cubist_thrills but i wouldnt be surprised if the missing piece of the puzzle, whatever it is, shows he was justifed [08:56] highest_cubist_thrills people who worked to cancel stallman and defraud gnu also worked to defraud moglen [08:56] highest_cubist_thrills so [08:56] highest_cubist_thrills i mean defraud [08:56] highest_cubist_thrills so, my half-the-story detector is off the charts on that one [08:57] highest_cubist_thrills sadly moglen is VERY reserved. understandably. [08:57] highest_cubist_thrills i dont think hes dishonest but whatever he is, isnt too conducive to knowing wtf happened [08:57] highest_cubist_thrills if anyone is smarter than rms, its moglen [08:58] highest_cubist_thrills and it wouldnt be by very much [08:58] highest_cubist_thrills 2 or 3 really bright people, put together, can be smarter than rms [08:58] highest_cubist_thrills and this is a post mortem anyway [08:58] highest_cubist_thrills i mean rms failed [08:59] highest_cubist_thrills i can list reasons why [08:59] highest_cubist_thrills none of the smart people who know where he fucked up have managed to outdo what he did [08:59] highest_cubist_thrills or even get things back on track [08:59] highest_cubist_thrills so lets be fair about that [08:59] highest_cubist_thrills but the failure isnt really up for debate [08:59] highest_cubist_thrills it happened ● Oct 04 [09:00] highest_cubist_thrills the fsf stands against its own cause [09:00] highest_cubist_thrills stallman is exiled and (still) not coming back [09:00] highest_cubist_thrills hes never coming back. moglen either probably [09:01] highest_cubist_thrills whoever steps up-- in 5, 10 or 25 years [09:01] highest_cubist_thrills really should know what the fuck went wrong. [09:01] highest_cubist_thrills sooner we piece that together the better [09:01] highest_cubist_thrills also tells us who to trust the least [09:01] highest_cubist_thrills if ibm doesnt fall [09:01] highest_cubist_thrills i still want to see sfc fall. [09:02] highest_cubist_thrills roys death by a dozen aunties schtick wont take it down [09:02] highest_cubist_thrills he thought "boycott novell" was "too negative" [09:02] highest_cubist_thrills i want to see killer instinct, not pulled punches. [09:02] highest_cubist_thrills not gossip [09:03] highest_cubist_thrills i want to walk down the street and flip a quarter into kuhns cup [09:03] highest_cubist_thrills and say "dont spend it all in one place, you fucking cunt" [09:03] highest_cubist_thrills but you know [09:03] highest_cubist_thrills probably never happen [09:06] highest_cubist_thrills social justice my arse [09:06] highest_cubist_thrills what do you think of social justice?
