[02:50]	TR Bot	 Microsoft actually doesn't care about your pirated Windows 11, despite the panic online
[02:50]	IsambardPrince	Right now it's going to affect KMS.
[02:51]	MinceR	if i were to have pirated Backdoors 11, and microslop were to block it, how would i notice?
[02:51]	MinceR	removing functionality isn't going to do it
[02:51]	MinceR	crashes aren't going to do it
[02:51]	MinceR	it ignoring the user's wishes and doing what it fucking well pleases especially isn't going to do it
[02:52]	MinceR	maybe microslop should try developing a product before thinking about how to put it behind locks
[02:55]	IsambardPrince	One of today's DVD finds at the Goodwill was The Great Escape.
[02:56]	IsambardPrince	The Nazis were usually at least compliant with their legal obligations to Prisoners of War, at least the Western ones.
[02:56]	IsambardPrince	Things changed at the Battle of the Bulge in a major way.
[02:58]	IsambardPrince	The duty of a prisoner is to escape, though. And in the Stalag Luft III incident, they did murder 50 of the prisoners they managed to recapture.
[02:59]	IsambardPrince	Which needless to say is against the Geneva Conventions.
[02:59]	MinceR	states don't seem to care all that much about the Geneva Conventions
● Sep 06
[03:00]	IsambardPrince	True. The United States doesn't even comply to the extent that the Nazis did.
[03:00]	IsambardPrince	Since 2001.
[03:01]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: Trump has created a weird situation in US law, or has tried to.
[03:01]	IsambardPrince	He's tried to say that if a member of a foreign terror cell in the US gives birth, that child is not a US citizen.
[03:02]	IsambardPrince	The Supreme Court's decision said the children of "enemy soldiers" would not be US citizens under birthright citizenship.
[03:02]	IsambardPrince	So it would seem Trump has inadvertently upgraded the status of unlawful combatant to "enemy soldier". 
[03:03]	MinceR	:>
[03:03]	IsambardPrince	So is it now the government's position that if we capture unlawful enemy combatants, that the Geneva Conventions apply and they have to have access to the Red Cross?
[03:03]	IsambardPrince	And lawyers?
[03:03]	MinceR	:>
[03:05]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: Kiki is looking at me like wtf, because I opened the back door, set the trash can out, and I am dumping her litter out into it and shutting the door and letting the cloud dissipate.
[03:05]	MinceR	:)
[03:06]	IsambardPrince	I got better litter this month so there shouldn't be a mushroom cloud next time.
[03:08]	MinceR	high explosive litter

[03:29]	IsambardPrince	They do still produce Zyklon B, just not by that name.

[03:30]	IsambardPrince	[21:29] <schestowitz[TR2]> who named them?

[20:14]	schestowitz[TR2]	My spouse works in houseless services. Her agency's guests need a likely-GPL-violating Android phone with proprietary apps to get services. Their devices also get stolen once a week.

[20:14]	schestowitz[TR2]	"I've definitely had some huge benefits that in the last 5 years, I started to build community for myself outside of FOSS. It's amazing to meet people who face "normal" challenges.
[20:14]	schestowitz[TR2]	OTOH, I don't really have a mental model of how to do activism without doing it with people I have a close, truly intimate connection with. Like, these issues are so deep in our hearts, how can we do the work unless we have an emotional connection?
[20:14]	schestowitz[TR2]	This thread shows I'm reconsidering all of that lately."
[20:15]	schestowitz[TR2]	" Oh, yeah, the challenge is always there. (c)(6)'s are really a terrible structure because it's about raising a specific class of businesses into power.
[20:15]	schestowitz[TR2]	(c)(3) structures are really a good way to go, but the lack of regulation (particularly in the current regime) means that they can behave badly and there is no way to hold them accountable.
[20:15]	schestowitz[TR2]	As I get older, my conclusion is that capitalism is so corrupt it permeates every fiber of human existence now. We won't escape that in our lifetimes."

[20:15]	schestowitz[TR2]	I've literally had LF employees ask me to come far away from an event so that no one sees them talk to me because LF has (apparently?) a standing order that talking to me is not permitted."
[20:16]	schestowitz[TR2]	"
[20:16]	schestowitz[TR2]	I guess I should be "proud" of that I'm seen as such a subversive that LF fears its employees even talking to me!
[20:16]	schestowitz[TR2]	I am banned from speaking at LF events. My employer (SFC) is banned from being an LF member even though the org clearly is in their "industry".  (I think that's a legally actionable grievance FWiW.)
