CrystalMathi think most people don't understand how trans rights are fundamental to free software, apart from the obvious part that everyone's rights are partialy fundamental to free softwareMar 05 04:02
CrystalMathso i'm currently one of these "most people"Mar 05 04:02
CrystalMatheven if you swap free software with tech rights, it's still a little odd, but getting closerMar 05 04:03
CrystalMathcloser because... you can say that tech rights has more to do with trans rightsMar 05 04:03
CrystalMathjust think, privacy for exampleMar 05 04:03
mjg59People can choose to act in ways that are incompatible with the goals of free softwareMar 05 04:05
mjg59For instance, they can implement DRM, provide restricted network services, refuse to let people have access to their dataMar 05 04:05
CrystalMathwell, most people on the planet do, it's always been an uphill battleMar 05 04:05
mjg59But people cannot themselves *be* incompatible with the goals of free softwareMar 05 04:06
MinceRhow is this specific to trans people?Mar 05 04:06
mjg59There's nothing inherent in any individual that makes it impossible for them to aid the causeMar 05 04:06
CrystalMathi totally agree mjg59 Mar 05 04:06
MinceRthat seems false to meMar 05 04:06
CrystalMathwhy MinceR?Mar 05 04:06
MinceRi don't see how it would be possible for someone like lennart poettering or satya nadella to aid the cause of free softwareMar 05 04:06
*GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrightsMar 05 04:06
CrystalMathMinceR: hmm, well Satya Nadella helped ReactOS a bitMar 05 04:07
mjg59So when people inside our community *choose* to discriminate against people because of who they *are*, not what they've *done*, they're weakening free softwareMar 05 04:07
CrystalMathin fact, those are ways in which the ReactOS team itself was uncooperative!Mar 05 04:07
MinceRand he hindered free unixes a lot, but who cares about OSes that actually work, right?Mar 05 04:07
CrystalMathReactOS devs just said "use proprietary drivers"Mar 05 04:07
CrystalMathand Satya Nadella had windows drivers open sourcedMar 05 04:07
CrystalMathso we're no longer forced to choose between audio and a fully free reactos installMar 05 04:08
MinceRand he continued the redmond mafia's old practice of using (fraudulent) software patents to punish businesses for selling devices with Linux on themMar 05 04:08
MinceRand to force those businesses to preload microshit malware on some of those devicesMar 05 04:08
CrystalMathmjg59: it would be sad if someone discriminated against anyone in a free software project, but it's also very hard to doMar 05 04:08
CrystalMathafter all, the software's open source, it can be easily forked, and forks can still work togetherMar 05 04:09
MinceRbut hey, as long as a reimplementation of a fundamentally broken design progresses a bit toward a goal it will never reach, that doesn't matterMar 05 04:09
CrystalMathif a patch is good, it would be idiotic to not include itMar 05 04:09
MinceRforks won't work together when the reason for a fork is disagreement about whether the software should force systemd on the userMar 05 04:09
CrystalMaththey still canMar 05 04:09
CrystalMathmany patches can work in both versionsMar 05 04:09
Old_ManOf course, when you see mjg59 make accusations of "people inside our community discriminating against people because of who they are," he's always just making it up as a pure fiction.Mar 05 04:09
CrystalMatheven parts of systemd can work with non-systemd stuff!Mar 05 04:10
mjg59CrystalMath: People in free software communities frequently discriminate against people on the basis of their race, sex or whether they're transMar 05 04:10
Old_ManHe spews out such false accusations with zero evidence.Mar 05 04:10
Old_ManAnd then tries to lie about what the dictionary says "evidence" even *is*. :DMar 05 04:10
Old_ManRemember the reason why mjg59 constantly brings up the subject of people's sex: "Our world is not divided by race, color, gender, or religion. Our world is divided into wise people and fools. And fools divide themselves by race, color, gender, or religion." -Mohamad SafaMar 05 04:10
CrystalMathmjg59: how do you define "people in free software communities"? usually it's guests that throw silly insults, not the people who actually do stuf fMar 05 04:10
CrystalMath*stuffMar 05 04:11
CrystalMathmost of the people who do actual work are very open mindedMar 05 04:11
CrystalMatheven ESRMar 05 04:11
MinceRopen-minded people are, of course, easy for crybullies to cancelMar 05 04:11
CrystalMathESR even once boasted he would accept code from aliens if it was goodMar 05 04:11
MinceRwell, that's easy to sayMar 05 04:12
MinceRchances are even if aliens exist, they aren't as rotten, corrupt or evil as humansMar 05 04:12
MinceRit seems difficult to come up with this level of inequity by pure chanceMar 05 04:12
mjg59CrystalMath: How are we defining doing stuff?Mar 05 04:12
mjg59The people who provide support on forums are doing stuff just as much as the people who write code areMar 05 04:13
MinceRand if we manage to communicate with aliens, chances are it's because they haven't failed as hard with technology as we haveMar 05 04:13
MinceRyes, i knowMar 05 04:13
MinceRthe people who fix typos in comments are just as important as people who design kernels and make sure people like GKH don't fuck them up with their idiotic ideasMar 05 04:13
CrystalMathGKH isn't bad IMOMar 05 04:14
MinceRnext step: the former are more important than the latterMar 05 04:14
mjg59From a strategic perspective, communities that demonstrate support for people regardless of their innate characteristics have a wider potential pool of contributorsMar 05 04:14
MinceRGKH is incompetentMar 05 04:14
MinceRhe was pushing for kdbus to be mergedMar 05 04:14
*Old_Man blinks.Mar 05 04:14
mjg59Proprietary software firms understand thisMar 05 04:14
Old_ManWhich kernel do you maintain, again?Mar 05 04:14
MinceRwhich one do you maintain?Mar 05 04:14
Old_ManYes, that was my question.Mar 05 04:15
MinceRmine as wellMar 05 04:15
Old_ManI don't. But, I don't call the kernel maintainer "incompetent" either, so that was kind of a stupid question for you to ask me.Mar 05 04:15
Old_ManBut, the fact that you dodged the question has been noted.Mar 05 04:15
mjg59All the proprietary firms try to demonstrate how welcoming they areMar 05 04:15
MinceRone does not need to maintain an entire kernel to determine whether obviously stupid software design decisions are obviously stupid or notMar 05 04:16
CrystalMathmjg59: i don't think it's good to boast about basic decency, or to replace decency with just boasting about itMar 05 04:16
mjg59Oh, I agreeMar 05 04:16
mjg59It's necessary to actually demonstrate itMar 05 04:16
MinceRmjg59: yes, by putting carefully designed subsets on display, while hiding most of what they doMar 05 04:16
mjg59A lot of the corporate propaganda here is lip serviceMar 05 04:16
Old_ManHowever, one *does* need to maintain an entire kernel in order for their opinion of "incompetence" at it, or "obviously stupid software design decisions" are applicable.Mar 05 04:16
MinceRjust like how microshit gets to demonstrate how high quality their code is by hiding the code and the bug databaseMar 05 04:16
mjg59And discrimination is rampent once you're behind the scenesMar 05 04:16
Old_Mans/are/to be/Mar 05 04:17
MinceROld_Man: or, one might read what Linus wrote about itMar 05 04:17
mjg59So free software needs to actually demonstrate that it lives up to its goalsMar 05 04:17
MinceRand ask why did it even have to reach the project leader at allMar 05 04:17
MinceRmjg59: it did, that's why the likes of the redmond mafia are trying everything they can think of to kill itMar 05 04:17
Old_ManOr one might learn from Andrew Tannenbaum's criticism of linux, all those decades ago. :DMar 05 04:17
Old_Man(Might have misspelled his name)Mar 05 04:18
MinceRthat's why we have SJW troll armies harassing software engineers to apply CoC-s to their projects and host a copy in the repositoryMar 05 04:18
CrystalMathmjg59: well free software has a different problem, its developer base reflects the set of people that have lots of free time and and a disposable incomeMar 05 04:18
MinceROld_Man: did Tanenbaum said Linux would be better if it had an atrocious IPC implementation in it?Mar 05 04:18
Old_ManHe said it would be better as a microkernel architecture.Mar 05 04:19
CrystalMathand because of things unrelated to free software, that generally tends to look very homogenous with regards to race and genderMar 05 04:19
MinceRthat sounds an awful lot like a step in the opposite directionMar 05 04:19
MinceRa huge step in the opposite directionMar 05 04:19
Old_ManUltimately, even though he was a professor of operating system design at the time, his opinion of what constituted "stupid design decision" was irrelevant in the real world.Mar 05 04:20
CrystalMathOld_Man: and that has not changed one bitMar 05 04:20
Old_ManThe lesson we learned was: hurling abuse from the cheap seats is easy. Doing it better is hard.Mar 05 04:20
CrystalMathmjg59: so my theory is that this causes free software projects to look like they're discriminating, when actually they're notMar 05 04:20
CrystalMathand statistics aren't enough to determine itMar 05 04:20
CrystalMathyou would have to actually send people undercover as minorities to free software projects, to see if they would be accepted or notMar 05 04:21
mjg59CrystalMath: Sure, stats don't determine that. The economic aspect is real.Mar 05 04:21
MinceR"doing it better" is what happened earlierMar 05 04:21
mjg59But individuals do report being discouraged from involving themselves because of community normsMar 05 04:21
MinceRwhich norms?Mar 05 04:22
CrystalMathat ReactOS, we got very very very few in these 20 and so years, and they've all been welcomed by the community, but they all left because they had no free time to do thisMar 05 04:22
mjg59In any case, it doesn't sound like we fundamentally disagreeMar 05 04:22
mjg59Free software projects should be supportive of efforts to end discrimination against people for who they areMar 05 04:22
mjg59Doing so can't hurt free software, but it can improve itMar 05 04:22
Old_ManThe community norm that mjg59 objects to is, "write better code. Build something better."Mar 05 04:22
MinceR:>Mar 05 04:22
Old_ManThose who can't function in such a meritocracy because they lack merit, usually try to change the subject to sex or race or something equally irrelevant.Mar 05 04:23
Old_ManJust as mjg59 does every day.Mar 05 04:23
Old_ManAnd if he can't pull people's attention away from building better software and writing better code, he'll just start randomly spewing out false accusations with no evidence, because he's a lying bigot that way.Mar 05 04:24
mjg59Like your false accusation that I was lying about Trump's islamophobiaMar 05 04:24
Old_ManThat wasn't a false accusation. Trump presented the evidence that it wasn't irrational.Mar 05 04:24
Old_ManWhen I asked, of course, you omitted to name that evidence, thus confirming that you are willing to lie to spread false narratives.Mar 05 04:25
Old_ManSo, keep on trying to distract with such irrelevancies.Mar 05 04:25
Old_ManIt just further demonstrates that you lack merit to participate in a meritocracy.Mar 05 04:25
mjg59Ok, let's frame this a different wayMar 05 04:29
mjg59Barriers that prevent people from being involved in free software hurt free software, both in terms of the number of people who can contribute and the number of people who can avail themselves of the freedomsMar 05 04:30
mjg59Personally, I feel that some of those barriers exist within free software itself. Others may disagree.Mar 05 04:31
mjg59But those barriers absolutely *do* exist in society as a wholeMar 05 04:31
mjg59Economic disparity makes it more difficult for people to benefit from free software. We should care about reducing economic disparity.Mar 05 04:31
mjg59Social discrimination leaves people in worse life situations, which makes it more difficult for those affected to benefit from free software. We should care about reducing that discrimination.Mar 05 04:32
Old_ManSo, are you resolving to quit being a fucking liar, hurling out false accusations, so that when such discrimination *does* rear its ugly head, people will believe you, rather than assume you're just "crying wolf" again?Mar 05 04:33
Old_ManWhat will you do to rebuild the credibility you've destroyed?Mar 05 04:33
Old_ManAlso: what are you doing to reduce economic disparity? What sacrifices are you, yourself, willfully and voluntarily making, to be a model for others to emulate?Mar 05 04:34

schestowitz__more than a fortnight after injecting the spyMar 05 17:59
schestowitz__[17:58] <DaemonFC[m]> Many of their users are not developers. It makes an okay cheap computer for general use.\Mar 05 17:59
schestowitz__waitMar 05 17:59
schestowitz__you seem to be missing somethingMar 05 17:59
schestowitz__who do you think RECOMMENDS these?Mar 05 17:59

schestowitz__The geeksMar 05 18:00
schestowitz__that's the key pointMar 05 18:00
schestowitz__they will no longer recommend itMar 05 18:00
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, the guy at Microcenter was asking me which Linux distribution to use on it. This was in 2016.Mar 05 18:00
schestowitz__there are other SBCs, some more powerful than the best "Rasps"Mar 05 18:00
schestowitz__a tad more expensuveMar 05 18:00
DaemonFC[m]I just said I don't know because I don't own one, but in general, Fedora was working alright on my laptop at the time, but that I thought they had an "official" distribution for the Pi based on Debian.Mar 05 18:01
DaemonFC[m]Didn't know they were going this way or I wouldn't have even mentioned that.Mar 05 18:01
MinceRand a tad more unsupportedMar 05 18:01
DaemonFC[m]Fedora changed their Free Software guidelines to where non-Free repos can be included but must be disabled by default.Mar 05 18:01
MinceRthough rpi4 is also pretty much unsupported by everyoneMar 05 18:01
DaemonFC[m]The user would have to flip them on individually. Mar 05 18:01
DaemonFC[m]ARM just isn't going to catch on in the desktop/laptop market.Mar 05 18:02
MinceRfor example, to boot openbsd on a rpi4, they want you to install some uefi implementation on the microsd card, boot that, connect to it via serial terminal (via GPIO pins) and configure it to boot the OSMar 05 18:02
DaemonFC[m]Now Apple announced that they're getting rid of their x86 compatibility system "in certain regions" with the next update.Mar 05 18:03
schestowitz__DaemonFC[m]: I use arm on a laptopMar 05 18:03
DaemonFC[m]And that such software just won't work anymore on an M1 Mac there.Mar 05 18:03
schestowitz__That's AppleMar 05 18:03
schestowitz__their customers are dummies with loansMar 05 18:03
DaemonFC[m]Maybe Intel found something to threaten them with, but it only applies in certain countries?Mar 05 18:03
schestowitz__they'll follow The HerdMar 05 18:03
schestowitz__they have herd immunity to factsMar 05 18:03
DaemonFC[m]Don't worry what the computer costs. BarclayCard will finance it at 30%!Mar 05 18:04
schestowitz__worry laterMar 05 18:04
MinceRherd mentalityMar 05 18:04
MinceRas recommended by cheeto hitlerMar 05 18:04
DaemonFC[m]"Don't worry about what it costs. We have financing!" is a sign to run away.Mar 05 18:04

DaemonFC[m]The insurance fraud lady blacklisted Mandy from buying life insurance with anyone who checks MIB and banned Maricel from being a beneficiary on someone's policy.Mar 05 18:05
schestowitz__and the recipient will envy your stupidityMar 05 18:05
DaemonFC[m]She said they found others with her on them and terminated the policies.Mar 05 18:06
DaemonFC[m]This is too funny. Who knows how much money she paid to have the policies terminated because she committed the fraud on us.Mar 05 18:06
schestowitz__she is bad neighbourMar 05 18:06
schestowitz__in the association senseMar 05 18:06
DaemonFC[m]But the lady asked whether we owned an iPhone XS.Mar 05 18:06
schestowitz__she'd do photo ops in Epstein's apartment tooMar 05 18:06
DaemonFC[m]I said, "No. Why?" She said, "That's the device that was used to buy the policy.".Mar 05 18:06
schestowitz__with Nikolic in the backgroundMar 05 18:06

DaemonFC[m]An XS of financed phone.Mar 05 20:23
DaemonFC[m]If I can't afford to hand over cash for the phone I don't buy it.Mar 05 20:24
DaemonFC[m]It limits you to what you're willing to spend.Mar 05 20:24
DaemonFC[m]It's not 24 payments of $60. Mar 05 20:25
DaemonFC[m]It's okay well this one is $400 and it does everything that other one does and it's $1,200 cheaper. $1,320 in fact when you figure in tax.Mar 05 20:25
DaemonFC[m]That's three payments on a car so "it has a nicer camera".Mar 05 20:26
DaemonFC[m]A month and a half of rent.Mar 05 20:26
Ariadnein my case, i was able to get an iphone 11 on clearance for $700Mar 05 20:31
Ariadneand in the absence of a viable free software phone (android does not count), i decided i was tired of having subsidized phones that spy on meMar 05 20:32
Ariadnefor whatever flaws the iphone has, it hasn't asked me to clarify if i visited a sex shop or not.  the last android one did.Mar 05 20:32

DaemonFC[m]Samsung put my S8+ on quarterly high severity CVE roll ups.Mar 05 21:22
psydroideven midrange phones are quite capable nowadays, it's just a shame that they ship with Google's (or Apple's) spyware and are more strictly locked downMar 05 21:24

DaemonFC[m]schestowitz points out that even with low interest, home loans are a dicey gamble. Best case I'd own it when I was 67. Worst case, one of us loses our income, gets foreclosed on, and the bank sells it and sues over the deficiency. It's indentured servitude for a place to live. Then there's property taxes and more insurance payments.Mar 05 22:45
DaemonFC[m]You have to protect the bank's investment by insuring it with hundreds more each month in your money. Then if you ever use it because something happened to the house or someone gets injured on your property, your rates shoot up and you might lose the house.Mar 05 22:46
DaemonFC[m]The insurance company uses CLUE.Mar 05 22:46
DaemonFC[m]So if the repair is only going to be a few thousand dollars, sometimes people pay to fix it themselves to avoid a rate hike that costs them double that.Mar 05 22:47
