| cybrNaut | Such a big leak deserves a big spotlight | Jan 07 05:26 |

| kingoffrance | it makes everyone saying digital "cash" is safer look funny, of course it is not going to be reported; or, they can spin it "our new system will be secure, unlike this legacy credit card stuff" | Jan 07 05:31 |
| MinceR | well, the legacy debit/credit card stuff definitely has its hair-raising aspects | Jan 07 05:32 |
| MinceR | and then they added NFC | Jan 07 05:32 |
| MinceR | but at least now there are NFC ATMs that don't get to swallow my card due to their shitty programming | Jan 07 05:32 |

| aindilis | yikes, kk | Jan 07 13:37 |
| Ariadne | but nothing as solid as what they had for yesterday | Jan 07 13:37 |
| aindilis | you should report that too | Jan 07 13:37 |
| Ariadne | if something resembling a plan shows up yes | Jan 07 13:38 |
| Ariadne | i think america is going to have a “cold” civil war | Jan 07 13:38 |

| schestowitz | wait till the loons lay hands on some nukes | Jan 07 13:40 |
| schestowitz | many in the military are sympathtic | Jan 07 13:40 |

| Ariadne | they really aren’t | Jan 07 13:40 |
| Ariadne | trump called the military losers and suckers | Jan 07 13:40 |
| Ariadne | and just vetoed the bill that keeps the checks coming | Jan 07 13:40 |
| schestowitz | I hear of some troops and vets who still support him | Jan 07 13:41 |
| schestowitz | even some African-American ones | Jan 07 13:41 |
| schestowitz | they love some "good violence" | Jan 07 13:41 |
| Ariadne | anyway our nukes probably don’t even work | Jan 07 13:43 |
| Ariadne | the systems used to launch them are commodore PETs still | Jan 07 13:44 |

| schestowitz | it's amusing | Jan 07 17:31 |
| schestowitz | how Intel sees Linux | Jan 07 17:31 |

| *tdemin has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Jan 07 17:33 | |

| psydroid | this is the most important piece of text in the article for me | Jan 07 17:51 |
| schestowitz | MinceR: editorial decision to first focus, in isolation, on Intel being technically incompetent | Jan 07 17:52 |

| MinceR | what an abusive relationship | Jan 07 17:53 |
| psydroid | They don't employ thousands of software developers without a reason. They like getting a leg up on the competition, so if they can do that by driving FOSS projects, they can be assured no one else will ever be able to catch up. | Jan 07 17:53 |
| schestowitz | MinceR: it's a bit of a paradox | Jan 07 17:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It turns out that the QAnon guy with the horns is chronically unemployed and a social parasite like most of those Trump rally people. | Jan 07 17:54 |
| schestowitz | which is deliberate | Jan 07 17:54 |
| schestowitz | as relationship has a positive connotation | Jan 07 17:54 |
| schestowitz | and then you had the tragedy of negation | Jan 07 17:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I guess they won't have anyone helping them fill out their unemployment and food stamp forms in prison. | Jan 07 17:54 |
| schestowitz | like "tough love" | Jan 07 17:54 |
| MinceR | i don't see that positive connotation | Jan 07 17:54 |
| schestowitz | not anymore | Jan 07 17:55 |
| *vZS1 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) | Jan 07 17:56 | |
| psydroid | Also by employing many of the top developers in FOSS communities the competition won't have access to these same developers, which looks like a tactic to one-up your direct and indirect competitors by denying them access to adequate employees | Jan 07 17:57 |
| psydroid | It's a bit like buying Donny van de Beek and putting him on the bench for most of the matches | Jan 07 17:58 |

| CrystalMath | get over what? talking badly about Trump? sure | Jan 07 18:07 |
| CrystalMath | but what i will never forgive is the elitism, which must still be fought | Jan 07 18:07 |
| MinceR | your infatuation with the Moscovian Candidate | Jan 07 18:07 |
| CrystalMath | the anti-elitist movement will not end! | Jan 07 18:08 |
| MinceR | it's not an "anti-elitist" movement, it's a fascist movement | Jan 07 18:08 |
| CrystalMath | even if it's a little confused right now | Jan 07 18:08 |
| MinceR | and it will end when it kills us all | Jan 07 18:08 |
| CrystalMath | what's kind of weird is that, "the left" to the anti-elitist movement is globalists, elitists, corporatists, and big data people | Jan 07 18:09 |
| CrystalMath | which is very different from the historical left | Jan 07 18:09 |
| MinceR | how are those "left"? | Jan 07 18:09 |
| MinceR | it's just two different flavors of authoritarianism fighting over who gets to oppress us, or pretending to fight | Jan 07 18:09 |

| schestowitz | better limit what you install | Jan 07 21:43 |
| schestowitz | debian comes with firefox esr | Jan 07 21:43 |
| schestowitz | i added falkon | Jan 07 21:43 |
| schestowitz | nothing "google" | Jan 07 21:43 |
| schestowitz | [21:41] <vZS1> I also don't know why GNU IceCat is lagging so far behind in versions | Jan 07 21:43 |
| schestowitz | lack of human resources I am guessing | Jan 07 21:44 |
| schestowitz | some firefox forks are in ShiteHub | Jan 07 21:44 |
| Digit | my browsers come scattered from various distros (thanks bedrocklinux), and maybe even a couple i manually installed. logins n things limited to some. *shrug* idk, i probably should use more VPN n stuff if i was more desperate for opsec. | Jan 07 21:46 |
| vZS1 | Scratch what I said | Jan 07 21:47 |
| vZS1 | IceCat is on 78.6 now | Jan 07 21:47 |
| Digit | i am ashamed to admit, both brave and opera are in my diversity of browsers i use. | Jan 07 21:47 |
| vZS1 | So that's latest | Jan 07 21:47 |
| vZS1 | ESR | Jan 07 21:47 |
| vZS1 | Looks like I'm getting back to IceCat | Jan 07 21:48 |
| *Digit reinstalls IceCat too (only not installed because experienced drive failure last night). | Jan 07 21:50 | |
| vZS1 | Brave has native support for IPFS now btw | Jan 07 21:51 |
| vZS1 | So URIs with ipfs:// work OOTB | Jan 07 21:51 |
| Digit | brave's a kinda silly dupe. swap all your spies and masters for one.... yeah right. convenience trap. ... the sweeter the nectar, the more dangerous the pitcher plant. i dont trust it. ... but still end up using it shamefully too much. i should be configuring surf. n_n | Jan 07 21:54 |

| schestowitz | ESR vanished | Jan 07 21:54 |
| schestowitz | no blog post in months | Jan 07 21:54 |
| schestowitz | but | Jan 07 21:55 |
| schestowitz | you means Firefox ESR | Jan 07 21:55 |

| schestowitz | I was going to make a COVID joke | Jan 07 21:55 |
| schestowitz | he's obese, so would struggle with it | Jan 07 21:55 |
| schestowitz | could barely walk even without and before covid | Jan 07 21:56 |
| vZS1 | Let him play with his guns. Will keep him busy. | Jan 07 21:56 |
| Digit | yeah... doesnt look like he took care of his health much, if at all. like he flung himself in the standard-american-diet with total abandon. | Jan 07 21:56 |
| schestowitz | yea, then he raised money | Jan 07 21:56 |
| schestowitz | for his health bills | Jan 07 21:56 |
| schestowitz | but he hates big gov | Jan 07 21:57 |
| Digit | XD oh america. | Jan 07 21:57 |
| schestowitz | hence I assume he's ok with health 'industry' cartel/status quo | Jan 07 21:57 |

| schestowitz | vZS1: how do you configure those links to work | Jan 07 21:58 |
| schestowitz | ipfs protocol | Jan 07 21:58 |
| schestowitz | I can make guesses | Jan 07 21:58 |
| vZS1 | In Brave? | Jan 07 21:58 |
| Digit | dogmatic "free market", applied to healthcare, does seem foolish. ... as per "a patient cured is a customer lost". | Jan 07 21:58 |
| vZS1 | It just works like a normal HTTP URI | Jan 07 21:58 |
| schestowitz | vZS1: what about the DE/IRC client | Jan 07 21:58 |
| schestowitz | they don't have applications associated | Jan 07 21:58 |
| schestowitz | I heard some dodgy stuff was going on with Brave | Jan 07 21:59 |
| schestowitz | and I don't think it was FUD | Jan 07 21:59 |
| schestowitz | shiteHub aside | Jan 07 21:59 |
| schestowitz | something they 'fixed' later | Jan 07 21:59 |
| vZS1 | > how do you configure those links to work | Jan 07 21:59 |
| schestowitz | but still gives room for concern | Jan 07 21:59 |

| schestowitz | kde | Jan 07 21:59 |
| vZS1 | Oh | Jan 07 21:59 |
| schestowitz | before the browser | Jan 07 21:59 |

| vZS1 | You either use the CLI or the desktop GUI (electron) | Jan 07 22:00 |
| schestowitz | we need to work out how to make it more accessible | Jan 07 22:00 |
| vZS1 | But the URIs only work in browsers | Jan 07 22:01 |
| vZS1 | For now | Jan 07 22:01 |
| schestowitz | even on gnu linux it's a steep learning curve | Jan 07 22:01 |
| schestowitz | should be click and go | Jan 07 22:01 |
| schestowitz | maybe speak to kde and gnome devs | Jan 07 22:01 |
| schestowitz | convince them to make native support | Jan 07 22:01 |
| schestowitz | out of the box | Jan 07 22:01 |

| schestowitz | have them bake in ipfs support | Jan 07 22:03 |

| schestowitz | I block listing in http://techrights.org/videos/ | Jan 07 22:46 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | NO TITLE | Jan 07 22:46 | |
| schestowitz | but... | Jan 07 22:46 |
| schestowitz | I can output the listing for wget script and ipfs add * | Jan 07 22:46 |
| schestowitz | there are 210 videos in that directory | Jan 07 22:47 |
| schestowitz | it's not everything | Jan 07 22:47 |
| schestowitz | but all the recent video uploads are there | Jan 07 22:47 |
| schestowitz | 8.5 gb | Jan 07 22:47 |
| schestowitz | I have just checked | Jan 07 22:47 |
| vZS1 | All in good time | Jan 07 22:48 |
| schestowitz | I can send you list of files and paths | Jan 07 22:48 |
| schestowitz | and then prepend wget to them | Jan 07 22:48 |
| schestowitz | it's just 210 lines | Jan 07 22:49 |
| schestowitz | then you have a mirror | Jan 07 22:49 |
| schestowitz | 8.5 gb | Jan 07 22:49 |
| vZS1 | You can dump it in my homedir on the Pi | Jan 07 22:49 |
| vZS1 | The metadata only | Jan 07 22:49 |
| schestowitz | I can advertise ipfs address/CID inline when publishing new videos | Jan 07 22:49 |
| vZS1 | Paths and all that | Jan 07 22:49 |
| MinceR | or you can give that list file to wget with -i | Jan 07 22:49 |
| vZS1 | But I've got some other basic things to do first | Jan 07 22:51 |
| vZS1 | Eventually, we'll need to do IPFS config fine-tuning. There's a limit of 10GB on the IPFS repo atm | Jan 07 22:52 |
| schestowitz | done | Jan 07 22:52 |
| schestowitz | see ~1 | Jan 07 22:52 |
| schestowitz | see ~/1 | Jan 07 22:52 |
| vZS1 | Will do | Jan 07 22:52 |
| schestowitz | 238.156 | Jan 07 22:53 |
| schestowitz | add/prepend techrights.org/videos/ to files | Jan 07 22:54 |
| vZS1 | Ty | Jan 07 22:54 |
| vZS1 | I'll check it out on Saturday | Jan 07 22:54 |
| schestowitz | I have just turned that into a shell script | Jan 07 22:55 |
| schestowitz | whcih can be run as a cron job to keep that file up to date | Jan 07 22:55 |
| schestowitz | in case we go down this route | Jan 07 22:56 |
| vZS1 | mutt development in a frenzy rn btw | Jan 07 22:56 |
| schestowitz | needs cut'ing the output | Jan 07 22:56 |
| vZS1 | Over the last month, there's been multiple commits every day. | Jan 07 22:56 |
| vZS1 | Some days, over 5 commits a day. | Jan 07 22:56 |
| vZS1 | I follow the commits on RSS | Jan 07 22:56 |
| vZS1 | I wish more projects did RSS for their commits | Jan 07 22:57 |
| vZS1 | Instead of ShitHub emails | Jan 07 22:58 |
| schestowitz | just follow birdsite accounts | Jan 07 22:58 |
| schestowitz | ignore the ads ;-) | Jan 07 22:58 |
| schestowitz | and turn on JS | Jan 07 22:58 |
| vZS1 | Both corrupted trash | Jan 07 22:58 |
| schestowitz | it no longer works without JS | Jan 07 22:58 |
| schestowitz | at all | Jan 07 22:58 |
| schestowitz | shithub emails or site I'd avoid | Jan 07 22:59 |
| schestowitz | if you help projects there you're like a Microsoft intern | Jan 07 22:59 |
| schestowitz | unpaid volunteer | Jan 07 22:59 |
| schestowitz | even if you just leave a comment | Jan 07 22:59 |
| schestowitz | or a bug reporrt | Jan 07 22:59 |
| schestowitz | it's a "gig economy" for devs | Jan 07 22:59 |
| schestowitz | Ubersoft | Jan 07 22:59 |
| vZS1 | At least Uber drivers get paid | Jan 07 22:59 |
| schestowitz | Github also | Jan 07 23:00 |
| vZS1 | Here you get "likes" | Jan 07 23:00 |
| schestowitz | they get "likes:" | Jan 07 23:00 |
| schestowitz | yeah | Jan 07 23:00 |
| schestowitz | beat me to it | Jan 07 23:00 |
| vZS1 | And "stars" | Jan 07 23:00 |
| schestowitz | stars, wor | Jan 07 23:00 |
| schestowitz | wow | Jan 07 23:00 |
| schestowitz | get 100 stars, you'll get the job | Jan 07 23:00 |
| schestowitz | I reckon there's also some "SEO"-like market for that | Jan 07 23:01 |
| schestowitz | 'buying stars" | Jan 07 23:01 |
| schestowitz | and Microsoft will look the other way | Jan 07 23:01 |
| vZS1 | Who knows | Jan 07 23:01 |
| schestowitz | as that helps shithub seem or feel more important than it really is | Jan 07 23:01 |
| schestowitz | vis-a-vis...: | Jan 07 23:01 |
| vZS1 | ShitHub is just another form of social media | Jan 07 23:02 |
| vZS1 | Same arguments used to bring people onto the platform | Jan 07 23:02 |
| vZS1 | "many users", "discoverability" | Jan 07 23:03 |
| vZS1 | "stars" = "likes" | Jan 07 23:03 |
| vZS1 | "forks" = "shares" | Jan 07 23:03 |
| schestowitz | http://techrights.org/2020/05/14/microsoft-fakehub/ | Jan 07 23:04 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Microsoft FakeHub: GitHub is Faking the Number of Developers in GitHub by Listing Non-Existing Ones | Techrights | Jan 07 23:04 | |
| schestowitz | that's just one example (me) | Jan 07 23:04 |
| vZS1 | "popular repos" = "trending" | Jan 07 23:04 |
| schestowitz | I reckon they do this a lot | Jan 07 23:04 |
| schestowitz | to lie about number of "devs" | Jan 07 23:04 |
| vZS1 | There's probably millions of bots on GitHub | Jan 07 23:04 |
| schestowitz | yes | Jan 07 23:04 |
| vZS1 | Inflating numbers | Jan 07 23:04 |
| schestowitz | or people with multiple accounts | Jan 07 23:04 |
| schestowitz | or stale accounts | Jan 07 23:04 |
| schestowitz | like FB, no incentive to remove those | Jan 07 23:04 |
| schestowitz | network effect can be faked | Jan 07 23:04 |
| vZS1 | I've had multiple bots on GitHub. To get around some annoying limits. | Jan 07 23:05 |
| schestowitz | inertia = self-fulfilling prophecy | Jan 07 23:05 |
| schestowitz | Zuckerberg did that EVEN BEFORE FB | Jan 07 23:05 |
| schestowitz | creating fake accounts | Jan 07 23:05 |
| schestowitz | fake scale, attract more people | Jan 07 23:05 |
| schestowitz | it's a ponzi scheme | Jan 07 23:05 |
| schestowitz | with people as the fake currency | Jan 07 23:05 |
| vZS1 | Not people | Jan 07 23:05 |
| schestowitz | and then people start to realise their many followers and stuff were just phantoms | Jan 07 23:05 |
| vZS1 | User accounts | Jan 07 23:05 |
| vZS1 | Aka bots | Jan 07 23:06 |
| schestowitz | created there like in Ashley Madison | Jan 07 23:06 |
| schestowitz | fake women | Jan 07 23:06 |
| schestowitz | to entice people to shell out money and create an accont | Jan 07 23:06 |
| schestowitz | if they can pull it off and get some real people on the platform that's phantoms | Jan 07 23:06 |
| vZS1 | Don't forget you also give them your email address | Jan 07 23:06 |
| vZS1 | Many upload PGP keys | Jan 07 23:06 |
| vZS1 | Personal details in "profile" | Jan 07 23:07 |
| vZS1 | They aggregate all of it | Jan 07 23:07 |
| vZS1 | That alone is worth a lot of money | Jan 07 23:07 |
| schestowitz | keybase is now zoom | Jan 07 23:08 |
| schestowitz | makes you wonder | Jan 07 23:08 |
| schestowitz | zoom works for/with FBI | Jan 07 23:08 |
| schestowitz | how many people played along with this sham? | Jan 07 23:08 |
| vZS1 | As a bonus they get to play tyrant with projects | Jan 07 23:08 |
| vZS1 | I will never forget what happend to youtube-dl | Jan 07 23:09 |
| schestowitz | many left after that | Jan 07 23:09 |
| schestowitz | but not enough | Jan 07 23:09 |
| schestowitz | yet | Jan 07 23:10 |
| vZS1 | It's the first time the tyranny showed itself | Jan 07 23:10 |
| vZS1 | This is what Microsoft really does | Jan 07 23:10 |
| schestowitz | many projects think they need shithub mirrors | Jan 07 23:11 |
| schestowitz | based on false numbers | Jan 07 23:11 |
| vZS1 | That's the thing | Jan 07 23:11 |
| schestowitz | the liars and crooks at microsoft keep lying about the number of useds ("users") in #github http://techrights.org/2020/05/14/microsoft-fakehub/ #deletegithub | Jan 07 23:11 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Microsoft FakeHub: GitHub is Faking the Number of Developers in GitHub by Listing Non-Existing Ones | Techrights | Jan 07 23:11 | |
| vZS1 | They fall for the shit arguments | Jan 07 23:11 |
| schestowitz | it keeps their momentum | Jan 07 23:11 |
| schestowitz | the lies give them inertia | Jan 07 23:11 |
| schestowitz | even phoronix outsourced to shithub | Jan 07 23:11 |
| schestowitz | it did not need to | Jan 07 23:11 |
| vZS1 | And then they get locked in | Jan 07 23:11 |
| schestowitz | maybe michael wanted some "stars" | Jan 07 23:11 |
| vZS1 | Their API is atrocious | Jan 07 23:12 |
| schestowitz | forget aboyt articles and commits | Jan 07 23:12 |
| vZS1 | They keep breaking the GitHub API | Jan 07 23:12 |
| schestowitz | start the day counting stars | Jan 07 23:12 |
| schestowitz | and who "liked" what | Jan 07 23:12 |
| schestowitz | much better than code anyway | Jan 07 23:12 |
| vZS1 | Hold on | Jan 07 23:12 |
| vZS1 | This actually reminds me | Jan 07 23:12 |
| schestowitz | and proprietary data, cannot be exported or anythjing | Jan 07 23:12 |
| vZS1 | GitHub first had a REST API | Jan 07 23:13 |
| vZS1 | They repeatedly broke backwards compatibility | Jan 07 23:13 |
| vZS1 | Then they migrated wholesale to GraphQL | Jan 07 23:13 |
| vZS1 | Which is again a breaking change | Jan 07 23:13 |
| vZS1 | An immense one | Jan 07 23:13 |
| vZS1 | And GraphQL just added so much unnecessary complexity | Jan 07 23:14 |
| vZS1 | ShitLab soon followed with the same | Jan 07 23:15 |
| vZS1 | I've actually had to suffer maintaining these | Jan 07 23:15 |
| vZS1 | It was incredibly painful | Jan 07 23:15 |
| vZS1 | You had to have so much infrastructure to support all this | Jan 07 23:16 |
| vZS1 | Managing the security tokens was another nightmare because of dealing with OAuth(2) | Jan 07 23:17 |
| vZS1 | This is the dirty underbelly of these Shit platforms | Jan 07 23:18 |
| vZS1 | A pile of spaghetti underneath | Jan 07 23:18 |
| vZS1 | It's a full time job to keep everything from breaking | Jan 07 23:19 |
| schestowitz | [23:13] <vZS1> GitHub first had a REST API | Jan 07 23:20 |
| schestowitz | entry is easy | Jan 07 23:20 |
| schestowitz | exit is hard(er) | Jan 07 23:20 |
| schestowitz | eee | Jan 07 23:20 |
| vZS1 | I spent the first quarter of 2020 maintaining both ShitHub and ShitLab repos. I've seen more than most of the sewage. | Jan 07 23:24 |
| vZS1 | But I don't know what else got in recently | Jan 07 23:24 |
| schestowitz | more is more | Jan 07 23:31 |
| schestowitz | more complexity | Jan 07 23:31 |
