schestowitz

in scare quotes even

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, Well, one reason he stopped it is if you keep handing out money for nothing, that causes inflation.

schestowitz

those who lived modestly all along change almost nothing

schestowitz

those who borrowed from the future will be lucky not to be kicked to the street

DaemonFC

And the SALT deduction mostly benefits millionaires and billionaires and causes larger deficits.

schestowitz

no, that's not why

schestowitz

where did you read this

schestowitz

url

kingoffrance

"those who borrowed from the future" in other words, the gov and corporations

schestowitz

them too

kingoffrance

schestowitz

but there's private debt

kingoffrance

people dont really have a choice in this matter :)

schestowitz

wrong url

schestowitz

us now at 125% debt-to-gdop ratio

schestowitz

it says it was 58% in 2000

schestowitz

34% in 1980

schestowitz

53% in 1960

schestowitz

years ago that page also showed personal debt

Mar 15 00:09

schestowitz

which is even higher than the national debt

Mar 15 00:09

schestowitz

so a citizen might be $250,000 in debt through the gov

Mar 15 00:09

schestowitz

and a similar amount owed to a bank, e.g. mortgage

*GuySoft has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)

schestowitz

so the home as asset thing is basically fictional, speculative

schestowitz

this says 40 milliion USians live in poverty

schestowitz

schestowitz

and you know where they live

schestowitz

41+ million on food stamps

schestowitz

schestowitz

less than half

Mar 15 00:12

schestowitz-TR

oh, I see now

schestowitz-TR

it is WORSE than I thought

schestowitz-TR

1:3 ratio

schestowitz-TR

89.0 TRILLION

schestowitz-TR

3 times the national debt

schestowitz-TR

if this was a home

schestowitz-TR

not a country

schestowitz-TR

it would be 3 kids with maxed up credited cards

schestowitz-TR

and two parents working full time to pay for the home

schestowitz-TR

and even if they paid for the home

schestowitz-TR

(national debt)

schestowitz-TR

they might still lose the stuff because the debt collector comes after the kids

Mar 15 00:15

schestowitz-TR

median income $35l

schestowitz-TR

schestowitz-TR

for full time

schestowitz-TR

with half the people having no income

schestowitz-TR

barely offsets the living expenses

schestowitz-TR

US unfunded liabilities: 168 trillion

schestowitz-TR

half a million per citizen

schestowitz-TR

inc. kids and pensioners

schestowitz-TR

hence thew scare quotes

schestowitz-TR

even bought a massive home second hand

if hyperinflation is selected, it will be a free home from the government

XRevan86

At least I could leave freenode.

schestowitz-TR

immibis: savers suffer

schestowitz-TR

no savings, less crying

immibis

people need to know that if there is not a market crash there will be a communist revolution. It may not necessarily be true, but it should be presented as if it is

*techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@pumv3cb2rfinu.irc) has joined #techrights

Mar 15 00:30

immibis

Yes, the net effect is as if the government stole your money and used it to buy houses for financially irresponsible people. You know, that exact thing the moron right wing keeps complaining about. Except for real and the right wing's fault.

immibis: hence I said earn what you need

schestowitz-TR

don't tell your life for money you cannot ever use

schestowitz-TR

meaningfully

schestowitz-TR

none of that "designers bag" nonsense

immibis

if hyperinflation is NOT chosen, the exact opposite is true and what you are suggesting is a completely terrible idea.

*kingoffrance writes 1000 page tome, "right wing republicanism, an infantile disorder...triumphant"

immibis

If the market crashes, you will be glad you saved as much money as possible, and you will be able to buy a home while over-leveraged financially irresponsible idiots wallow in slavery

schestowitz-TR

immibis: read up on what happened in cuba

schestowitz-TR

for those with busisses

immibis

you are predicting communist revolution

immibis

schestowitz-TR

schestowitz-TR

you described two situations

schestowitz-TR

hyperinflation

schestowitz-TR

or revolution

immibis

I described four situations

immibis

Those are two of them

immibis

Market crash, hyperinflation, return to feudalism, or communist revolution

immibis

maybe I should say revolt instead of revolution. Sounds scarier to some people, less scary to others..

MinceR

revolting

immibis

In 1/4 cases savers win a lot. In 1/4 cases debtors win a lot. In 2/4 cases money becomes meaningless (so you should have tried to enjoy your life and ignored money)

MinceR

demons to some, angels to others

immibis

And... any of the cases where savers do not win will completely destroy the foundations of the society we live in today.

Mar 15 00:35

immibis

(like the way the right wing keeps foretelling trans people will destroy it, but actually existent and worse)

but also makes you a target

It does not guarantee that, because hyperinflation.

schestowitz-TR

right

"russian ukrainian gas dispute"... i see, and Condoleezza Rice involvement isn't mentioned in the english language wiki article: crimea

Mar 15 01:52

activelow

seems USA spit oil into fire year 2005 already

Mar 15 01:53

activelow

in Poland, at the border of Germany, gasoline prices are 50% of the german ones

Mar 15 01:53

activelow

yet, Poland is a member of EU...

Mar 15 01:54

activelow

Ukraine seeked to associate with EU, yet wasn't willing to pay EU "market" price

Mar 15 01:54

activelow

25billion cash poof, because illegally diverted gas

Mar 15 01:54

activelow

i bet Ukraine economy had crashed anyway, then stability of Germany/EU were threatened

Mar 15 01:55

activelow

furthermore, subverting the Northstream project was the death sentence for peaceful negotiations

Mar 15 01:56

activelow

because Ukraine could have continued to operate their pipeline, and negotiate with whoever they wished about import/export prices

Mar 15 02:00

activelow

and today some lobbied military and ministry of defense announced F-35 bomber shall be acquired

Mar 15 02:01

activelow

"nuclear participation", yet german air force already got fighter jets, the aging Tornado, and the multi-role Eurofighter designed to replace it including air-to-ground

Mar 15 02:01

activelow

seems, USA too seeks to capitalize upon this conflict by selling their F-35

Mar 15 02:02

DaemonFC

If they ever charged me with Disorderly Conduct, I would say "I will answer to specific charges!".

Mar 15 02:02

DaemonFC

The only reason I pleaded guilty was because they charged me with something more serious and I had played a weak hand for all it was worth.

Mar 15 02:03

activelow

the F-35 was rather surprising today, and it's problematic, because it distracts from the question what the glorious Eurofighter was

Mar 15 02:07

activelow

so, air force can distract from this question, what the billions were wasted for with the Eurofighter

Mar 15 02:08

activelow

and ask for cash, 100billion granted out of nowhere... gasoline prices more than 10cash/gallon now, and rising

Mar 15 02:09

activelow

corona measures will be terminated 20th march they say... no more questions ask then

Mar 15 02:11

activelow

which makes me think, if and what would happen until then

Mar 15 02:11

activelow

because, so far nothing has changed

Mar 15 02:11

activelow

maybe they'll plug into northstream2 until then?

Mar 15 02:12

DaemonFC

So for a year they weren't even letting you out and then on the 20th there are absolutely no restrictions.

Mar 15 02:12

activelow

i have another suspicion, which is it could be russian military secured ukrainian military installations

Mar 15 02:13

activelow

as a reminder, Ukraine was the 3rd largest nuclear force, globally (Budapest Memorandum)

Mar 15 02:13

activelow

which isn't discussed, if and how it was complied with, or not; because if Ukraine didn't comply, the intervention wasn't only justified, it was mandatory then

Mar 15 02:14

activelow

currently, Westinghouse Electric fiddling inside Ukrainian nuclear facilities was reported, which i consider confirmed

Mar 15 02:14

activelow

if anythign was violated, then USA supported this, actively, as an act of war

Mar 15 02:15

activelow

in Europe

Mar 15 02:15

activelow

recent rumors were some other installations, of ballistic missiles, close to borders of russian federation, probably another violation and act of war of USA

Mar 15 02:15

activelow

preceeding the "russian aggression"

schestowitz-TR

[00:56] <XRevan86> She might get criminal charges for this.

schestowitz-TR

to make an example of her

schestowitz-TR

they might as well torture her and her relatives

schestowitz-TR

like the nazis did in villages

DaemonFC

They'll make an example with criminal charges.

DaemonFC

Then they'll torment her and force her to read out a prepared confession.

schestowitz-TR

crime: offending putin in frpont of people

DaemonFC

Then they'll make her apologize for the harm she has caused to the Russian people.

Mar 15 02:17

DaemonFC

I wouldn't be surprised if she was forced to say she was under the influence of others who were spreading this propaganda.

DaemonFC

That is the Communist playbook.

DaemonFC

So the one Putin would be well trained in.

schestowitz-TR

XRevan86: does the suse stance/statement from suse extend to opensusse

schestowitz-TR

will they expel russian packagers, maintainers, code, projects?

Mar 15 02:21

that's the trivial contradiction, i think: if Ukraine complied with Budapest memorandum, then the russian fleet at crimea couldn't exist

Mar 15 02:27

activelow

either it's controlled by russian including various nuclear stockpiles and carriers, and if it isn't and Ukraine controlled it, then Budapest memorandom cannot be complied with

schestowitz-TR

???

activelow

except if, Russia terminated the entire harbor, and with it access to mediterrenean coast

activelow

schestowitz-TR: Ukraine must not have possessed any nuclear weapons

activelow

yet Ukraine controlled crimea and the military installation there

activelow

that's a contradiction

schestowitz-TR

you said there were russian bases in crimea

schestowitz-TR

afaik, this is false

schestowitz-TR

and maybe you got that from russia propaganda sites

activelow

the status of crimea was disputed

schestowitz-TR

schestowitz-TR

it was part of ukraine

schestowitz-TR

anyway, gn

Mar 15 02:30

activelow

it's the military facilities there, which weren't "Ukraine", and cannot be, because this would violate the Budapest Memorandum

Mar 15 02:30

activelow

if russians had decided to dispose all their weapons and carriers there, they had lost access to mediterrenean sea... another free pass for USA and their acts of war in middle east

MinceR: i am not talking about crimea, i am referring to the military installations including soviet nuclear and carriers

activelow

Ukraine must not have possessed any of this, to retain "security guarantees"

Mar 15 02:46

MinceR

funny how crimea is literally in the message i cited

Mar 15 02:46

activelow

and Russia could not have lost control over those military installations, even if they wanted to, because... USA and their global aggressions

Mar 15 02:47

activelow

and crimea probably wasn't the only one

Mar 15 02:47

MinceR

russia kept control over their naval base in sevastopol, if that's what you mean

Mar 15 02:48

activelow

Maruipol, and some others

Mar 15 02:49

mariupol isn't even in crimea

activelow

yes, there is more

activelow

this isn't russian propaganda, it's facts

activelow

hadn't seen a nuclear submarine before, admit this, anyway

MinceR

yeah, i know

MinceR

"alternative facts"

activelow

unmentioned facts

activelow

zero coverage

activelow

i didn't hear anyone mention the Russian-Ukrainian gas dispute anymore either, or Westinghouse Electric fiddling inside Ukrainian nuclear facilities

Mar 15 02:52

activelow

ExxonMobile, Burisma, and who knows who else

Mar 15 02:52

MinceR

well, it's pretty much irrelevant at this point

activelow

and even if Ukraine intended to join EU, ... guess what, ExxonMobile is USA, not USA

MinceR

when this ends, there practically won't be a russia anymore

MinceR

possibly also no ukraine

MinceR

> USA, not USA

MinceR

activelow

no EU

MinceR

guess what, usian corporations also do business in the EU

activelow

sure, and Atlantic Bridge minion war ciminals control the entire media apparatus, industry, politics

Mar 15 02:54

MinceR

yeah, especially RT

Mar 15 02:54

MinceR

and the other crap you read as gospel

Mar 15 02:55

activelow

why would you say there won't be any Ukraine and Russia anymore soon?

Mar 15 02:55

MinceR

the russian economy is crumbling

activelow

everyone is

activelow

more or less, mostly EU

MinceR

even if putler isn't deposed (putting his oligarchs in power, possibly fragmenting the country) and russia isn't sliced up by the west, they'll become isolated from their former trading partners and dependent on red china

activelow

which i consider social, political, and economical armageddon

MinceR

and that is assuming putler doesn't start a nuclear war that wipes us all out

MinceR

and who knows what will be left of ukraine

activelow

that's not his plan, neither for ukriane nor anyone else

MinceR

too bad

MinceR

he doesn't have the power to implement his plan

activelow

if at all, it's the plan of... USA

MinceR

his underlings lied to him

MinceR

and the west is more united than he thought

MinceR

indeed, the west is more united against him than they were against hitler

activelow

well, the "west" hasn't got me, which is the intelligence

activelow

or former, so to say

activelow

i have no clue, what will happen next

MinceR

it depends on several things

Mar 15 02:59

MinceR

will putler's madness make him launch ICBMs? were those ICBMs properly maintained? will they make it anywhere near the target? will they be able to explode?

Mar 15 02:59

MinceR

will the west respond? will red china and north korea respond to _that_?

Mar 15 03:00

MinceR

also, how well do anti-ICBM systems work?

Mar 15 03:01

MinceR

were the people who predicted that bombing modern urban sprawls will result in such a great output of carbon black it will cause global nuclear winter, or will the people who said those people were wrong right?

Mar 15 03:01

MinceR

which of these powers are using salted warheads?

Mar 15 03:01

activelow

i don't think this are the plans of russian military

MinceR

also, will putler's underlings finally decide to separate him from the chain of command before he does even more damage?

MinceR

yeah

MinceR

the russian military didn't plan on being bogged down in ukraine for weeks

MinceR

they didn't plan on abandoning their vehicles due to fuel running out

activelow

overrated reportings

MinceR

they expected the ukrainians to welcome their new wannabe overlords with open arms

activelow

unverifiable

MinceR

is the reporting of the passage of time also overrated?

MinceR

have only 24 hours passed after all?

As to bad faith, Complainant has submitted five articles posted by different volunteers on <wemakefedora.org> in early October 2021 which appear to describe technical subjects and social phenomena in the open-source community (Exhibit 4). None of these articles appear to be asking for money. None of them are asking visitors to abandon Complainant’s Fedora product and use an alternative.

DaemonFC: FFS!

schestowitz-TR

GTFO or move to another channel

schestowitz-TR

stop interjecting this stuff here

schestowitz-TR

if you want to start cancel culture keg-powder, do it in another network

schestowitz-TR

that's not helping us

DaemonFC

Most people gain absolutely nothing from living in a large city.

matey

the point of cancel culture is to get people to self-censor

DaemonFC

Stallman tries to promote it as a cure all for climate change.

schestowitz-TR

this is a channel on tech

matey

initially, like with stallman, its to censor directly

schestowitz-TR

and civil rights related to that

matey

but thats not sustainable. the transition to self-censorship is required

schestowitz-TR

it's not a place to start demonising black americans

schestowitz-TR

which is what DaemonFC is trying to do

matey

im not sure where his obsession with minorities comes from

DaemonFC

I was pointing out that two more Democrat paradises have a serial killer running around murdering homeless people.

schestowitz-TR

it doesn't matter

schestowitz-TR

it's off topic

DaemonFC

On top of all the other "reasons to live there".

schestowitz-TR

and it gives ammo to people who try to demonise us

DaemonFC

Stallman doesn't "get it" That there's no gain to be had by living in a city. You get depression, high taxes, and crime.

matey

its the second complaint i was addressing

DaemonFC

Can't even leave your house in broad daylight.

matey

kowtowing to the cancel brigades wont protect you

matey

the off topic complaint i have no quarrel with

schestowitz-TR

we have many channel;s

schestowitz-TR

he's already in some of them

schestowitz-TR

but he wants more audience

schestowitz-TR

for the scapegoating

matey

im still not sure what his objective is

DaemonFC

South Chicago was just eery.

matey

some of his critiques of law are reasonable. i dont share his views on minorities

DaemonFC

THey build parks, there should be kids playing there. There's no kids playing there. It's because their parents know what will happen to them there.

matey

Stallman doesn't "get it" That there's no gain to be had by living in a city. You get depression, high taxes, and crime. <- im not sure this sums up a city

matey

in the past, many people loved living in a city (others still do)

DaemonFC

Once you get past a certain size of city, 20,000-30,000 people or so, violent crime starts rising exponentially.

matey

im not sure stallmans opinions on where to live arent deeply affected by his tendency to travel all over the world

DaemonFC

There's also more people like John or Mr. GULAG living there for the anonymity while they carry out their perversions.

matey

on the one hand it should give more perspective. on the other hand, hes not "stuck" anywhere per se

matey

when you can just piss off to south america like he does, its hard to say if he really understands boston. but he might.

matey

john?

DaemonFC

My ex. Big cities appeal to perverts and criminals because they figure there's anonymity.

Mar 15 10:39

DaemonFC

They can do what they want and then quickly fade back into the crowd.

Mar 15 10:39

DaemonFC

Of course, it's not entirely true (lots of cameras, for example).

matey

i think rurals have their share of perverts and criminals as well though

DaemonFC

Ironically, you have perverts and criminals moving to a big city with lots of surveillance to become anonymous.

matey

that is ironic

matey

it may even say a lot about surveillance

matey

the uk has cameras up every arse, the obvious result being that crime has ended

matey

so we know it works

DaemonFC

It works sometimes in Chicago.

matey

how often

DaemonFC

Those license plate readers are catching some for now.

matey

should be illegal, its not constitutional to track everyone that way

DaemonFC

They're always recording though.

DaemonFC

They've caught people due to recordings that the plate readers made and saved that were not in a car.

matey

its not constitutional in britain either, at least not when they were part of the eu

DaemonFC

So we know they're just cameras that ALSO record plate numbers.

matey

sneaky

matey

the thing about constituions is that theyre a formal list of things the government isnt allowed to do but they do anyway

Mar 15 10:43

DaemonFC

Well, they say it's fine because the license plate scanners can't see anything a cop couldn't.

Mar 15 10:43

matey

it still works sometimes, pocock gets to keep his url.

DaemonFC

If a cop was a computer that could just sit there all day and process every single plate that went by.

matey

Well, they say it's fine because the license plate scanners can't see anything a cop couldn't. <- nothing beats constitutional protection like a straw man!

matey

scalia was a genius that way

matey

he went about the constitution like a baptist preacher goes about the bible

Mar 15 10:45

kingoffrance

^^^^^^^^ he literally was full "formalism"

Mar 15 10:45

matey

really literally and really stupidly, and in a way that was difficult enough for people to argue with unless they had any sense

Mar 15 10:45

matey

"the letter of the law killeth" said mother theresa, and scalia enjoyed stabbing the constitution to bits

DaemonFC

Grindr doesn't work for people like John in smaller cities. Because you see the same people on it all the time.

DaemonFC

And you probably know a lot of them.

DaemonFC

Looking back, I'm almost certain that's why he insisted on moving to Chicago.

matey

like bill gates with "what do you mean by 'abridging'"

matey

scrutinise each individual word until the text loses all meaning

matey

also put the text on the "meaningless until proven to have meaning" footing

matey

"how can we be sure they meant that!"

matey

historians might know, but their testimony doesnt count, all we have is the words before us

Mar 15 10:48

matey

Grindr doesn't work for people like John in smaller cities. Because you see the same people on it all the time. <- sounds like it would chafe

Mar 15 10:48

you cant make it expand to larger areas?

Ubuntu is back to hacking together a variant of GNOME from mismatching pieces.

I'm sure that goes well.

funny how close that is to what my guess the story would be about

gnome, now with more features for cancelling people

i predict that in the next few years, the fsf (or libreplanet) will offer a new tool similar to libre.js

but instead of using it to complain to website owners about non-free javascript, it will simply report peoples tweets and emails to their boss with "one-click" convenience

okay maybe "unfair" is the wrong word. inaccurate?

mmhmm

i wish more people paid attention to the level of dependency hell thats being created

also wish he published his work so we could be sure he isnt making it up

instead, the only way to verify his experiments is to recreate them from scratch

Audhumla is the divine cow whose milk made up the four rivers that nourished Ymir. She sustained herself by licking the salty ice. Audhumla existed in Ginnungagap before the begining of the world, and was the first creature. She was born from the mists created when the warm winds of the south warmed the northern ice fields.

shes more amazing than anyone from star trek

matey

croatian i think

XRevan86

I really-really like the Season 1 cast.

matey

yeah but the acting on season 1 was as stiff as a new pair of boots

matey

still if this is about the captain, i think we all agree

XRevan86

True, I said it like that because Sinclair > Sheridan

matey

of course

XRevan86: "Crimea's existence violating the Budapest Memorandum is a new take to me" -> WRONG. It is the military installations with nuclear capabilities and carriers which potentially violates the Budapest memorandum.

Mar 15 12:16

activelow

furthermore, i raise questions about the interference of Westinghouse Electric (fiddling with nuclear facilities), ExxonMobile, Burisma in Ukraine

Mar 15 12:29

It stands to reason he modeled the whole takeover of Earth by Clark and Propaganda ISN after the sort of things that happened in the Soviet Union.

Mar 15 12:29

DaemonFC

Babylon 5 wouldn't have survived another round of fighting had the Minbari not showed up with Delenn at the end of that episode.

Mar 15 12:30

matey

theres no question

Mar 15 12:30

DaemonFC

The first wave of the attack took out one of the two EAS destroyers that had defected and badly damaged the station.

Mar 15 12:30

matey

ive watched it a few times

Mar 15 12:31

matey

the episode i was talking about won a hugo, beating out star trek first contact in the same category

Mar 15 12:31

DaemonFC

Clark's plan probably figured on this. The first wave goes in and softens them up and the next wave captures or destroys them.

Mar 15 12:31

DaemonFC

But the interesting thing is that he was in cahoots with the Shadows.

DaemonFC

So why not have them take care of B5 at this point?

matey

if more people read about the rise of stalin they might think twice about repeating a number of the same mistakes

matey

the shadows (and the vorlons) prefer to work quietly and through other people

DaemonFC

It's established that the Shadows are aware of the White Stars and they are also aware that B4 went back in time 1,000 years.

matey

they dont do war when they can do proxy war

DaemonFC

They really should be more apprehensive of the Minbari and B5 and take immediate action to eliminate it.

matey

theres another important thing to point out

matey

which is that i always thought trek plotlines were pretty tight

DaemonFC

Well, Londo kept calling on the Shadows and they practically won the Centauri war against the Narn.

matey

until i found people really good at ripping apart plotholes

DaemonFC

That would have gone on forever with inconclusive results without Shadow intervention.

matey

my favourite trek ship cant even dock! (but it does anyway)

matey

oh i didnt say they wont intervene

DaemonFC

The Narn seemed to be at least as technologically developed as the Centauri and with about as large of a military.

matey

just that they prefer war THROUGH younger races

matey

the volons too

matey

vorlons-- the whole point of the younger races (for them) was to win their war for them

DaemonFC

At the end, the Shadows and Vorlons were going to have an all out direct confrontation.

DaemonFC

Until one of them was completely destroyed.

matey

which is an old trope: the old send the young to die for their wars

matey

yeah with the planet destroyers

DaemonFC

Would it not have been easier to sit back and watch them kick each other's asses and then move in to mop up what was left?

matey

they got impatient.

DaemonFC

It was a big risk to move in with most of both fleets intact.

matey

its really that simple

matey

you cant even blame jms for it, as its a theme in real wars

DaemonFC

The White Stars could have probably finished off whatever was left of whichever side "won".

DaemonFC

Because "winning" would still mean losing the majority of their fleet.

matey

you think they could have fought the vorlons?

DaemonFC

They were successful in destroying that listening outpost.

DaemonFC

Plus, they still had nuclear weapons hidden in the asteroid field.

matey

as i recall, the turning point was when ivanova started recruited older races

matey

because they had better ships and knowledge of the vorlons and shadows

DaemonFC

It turned out later on that Clark had indeed managed to get his hands on advanced Shadow tech.

DaemonFC

Probably from the dig on Mars.

matey

right

matey

i love the show more than almost any other, but im not sure where youre going with this

DaemonFC

The White Stars had to fight the Shadow-enhanced Omega destroyer fleet. Those were using beam weapons similar to the Shadows.

DaemonFC

They could destroy an enemy vessel with one hit, but it seemed like the tracking sensors were not Shadow-derived.

matey

i thought their beam weapons were more like the vorlon planet destroyer

DaemonFC

Because they can miss.

matey

and the shadows used telepaths for targeting

matey

which pissed off bester because they got his girlfriend

DaemonFC

It was the Psi Corps that handed her over.

DaemonFC

And modified her to where it's unlikely she would ever recover.

matey

and then she turned the medlab into a smart home

DaemonFC

Well, Sheridan slipped them onto the destroyers waiting at Mars. They integrate into the nearest computer system and they really fuck it up if it's not a Shadow system.

Mar 15 12:42

matey

i remember that

Mar 15 12:42

matey

The White Stars had to fight the Shadow-enhanced Omega destroyer fleet. Those were using beam weapons similar to the Shadows. <- i parsed this incorrectly the first time. got you now.

matey

i really wish i could watch all that again

matey

i no longer have a dvd player or the dvds

matey

and i dont do streaming

matey

given enough time i may pirate the whole series someday, but i dont do a lot of that either

Mar 15 18:40

DaemonFC

He even eventually started talking to them.

"l'enfer, c'est les autres."

bnchs

hello

DaemonFC

"We just need to know about your day. And by not talking to us, that means you did something bad today, right?"

DaemonFC

See what they did there? Not talking to them is not admissible in court as evidence of wrongdoing.

bnchs

DaemonFC, so they manipulate people into spilling

DaemonFC

But they make you think it might be. As a cop, he should have known better.

DaemonFC

Oh yes, they'll sit there for hours.

DaemonFC

They'll alternate between threats of things they can't do and promises they can't make and won't keep.

DaemonFC

And they'll get it out of you a little at a time.

DaemonFC

Most people, that is.

bnchs

lol

bnchs

once you tell them everything

DaemonFC

Out come the handcuffs.

DaemonFC

"Hey, you said you'd let me go home!"

bnchs

you're not gonna win your case

DaemonFC

Cop: "Yeah, that's not what's happening!"

bnchs

because they'll learn from what you said

bnchs

the lawyers

DaemonFC

Then many people who are arrested again didn't learn the first time.

DaemonFC

And go right back to sitting there talking to the police without their attorney.

bnchs

they have a right to remain slient

DaemonFC

And they get themselves in trouble, again and again.

DaemonFC

<bnchs> rather than downloading the movies directly

DaemonFC

Netflix is useful. It's a source of new AV1/Opus rips.

bnchs

yes of course

DaemonFC

Once people rip that particular thing, Netflix can't control it anymore.

bnchs

because people actually managed to crack the widevine DRM

DaemonFC

Then there's no incentive to give them any money.

DaemonFC

Nope, it's not Widevine.

bnchs

well what DRM is it

DaemonFC

Netflix only streams in 720p in Widevine.

DaemonFC

People crack Microsoft "PlayReady" to get the 1080p and 2160p rips.

SomeH4x0r

Isn't it Widevine L1, L2 and L3?

DaemonFC

So you actually do have to use Edge on Windows to do that.

bnchs

"microsoft drm"

DaemonFC

<SomeH4x0r> Isn't it Widevine L1, L2 and L3?

bnchs

geez what could go wrong

DaemonFC

They have different levels of Widevine, but Netflix and Amazon both constrain the video to 720p if Widevine is the CDM.

DaemonFC

Because they know there's a million ways to crack it.

bnchs

DaemonFC, i think DRMs that use hardware can be cracked

DaemonFC

I don't know what Hulu does.

bnchs

you could make a hardware emulator

DaemonFC

All DRM *can* be cracked.

bnchs

you could make a TPM emulator that intercepts calls

DaemonFC

People like mjg59_ work hard to try to stop it, or at least with code other people hand them perhaps.

SomeH4x0r

or just find the weakest hardware unit supported

schestowitz-TR

"BUT DIS NOT LEGAL !!"

SomeH4x0r

but yes, emulator is better

DaemonFC

schestowitz implied that he's not nearly as smart as he wants people to think he is and may just be getting paid to be a front for code handed to him by other actors.

DaemonFC

To make it seem legit.

bnchs

with microsoft pluton its not gonna be really easy

bnchs

unless you manage to reverse engineer pluton

bnchs

and emulate it

immibis_

bnchs: the problem is reverse-engineering the hardware enough to extract the private key (not to mention the algorithm). If implemented right, it can't be done without dissolving away the chip with acid.

*immibis_ is now known as immibis

schestowitz-TR

pluton seems to be dying already

DaemonFC

mjg59_ was pitching Pluton the other day.

immibis

DaemonFC

It seems AMD locks it to OFF right now and he was trying to get the fucking thing to turn ON.

XRevan86

DaemonFC

For some ungodly reason.

immibis

and then reverse-engineering a hundred billion transistors to find which 256 of them encode the private key

bnchs

yes

DaemonFC

You go to install an "update" for your "BIOS" later. It flips "Pluton" on without asking.

mjg59_

DaemonFC: Well roy does tend to keep saying untrue things about me

bnchs

or just don't use the hardware

DaemonFC

You can't backflash because reasons.

DaemonFC

And then you have another nasty thing that locks you out of the computer.

mjg59_

But no, I do not do any work that enables DRM

bnchs

you can implement a TPM emulator or some emulator in the kernel

immibis

A better way might be to film your TV screen.

immibis

you know, the HDCP protection only goes up to the main circuit board on your TV. It doesn't extend from the HDCP decoder chip to the actual pixels

mjg59_

I have refused to take jobs that would involve me implementing or managing DRM

DaemonFC

I dealt with "Secure" boot by turning it off completely.

bnchs

immibis, that already exists

bnchs

it's called CAMRIP

immibis

bnchs: oh yes, you can absolutely implement a TPM... TPMs will soon come with private keys signed by Intel and Windows won't run unless you have one of those

bnchs

and it's mostly low quality camera recording

mjg59_

Cool? If your threat model doesn't involve people attacking your boot chain, it doesn't buy you anything

DaemonFC

And I install the OS and application security updates from Debian and Flathub immediately.

DaemonFC

Without delay.

bnchs

immibis, wow

DaemonFC

Some people let security updates pile up, and I mean, if they want to, that's their problem.

DaemonFC

If it causes them harm, they can blame themselves.

immibis

(btw I don't know if that is actual technology. It would be easy to implement and I *expect* it to be implemented especially if people start hooking up fake TPMs)

DaemonFC

But none of this should be going on in firmware.

DaemonFC

Firmware is already super shitty without this nonsense in it.

MinceR

if your threat model is all about people compromising your windows installation or replacing it with a real OS, it is impossible for your data to be secure

mjg59_

immibis: It's already easy to verify that a TPM is real, but it's also easy to lie to the TPM about the system state

DaemonFC

Firmware is so super shitty that if you can get it to boot your OS at all, LEAVE IT ALONE.

bnchs

can you dump a TPM

mjg59_

immibis: So if you want to fake any of this stuff, just buy a second TPM, lie to it, and have it attest

mjg59_

Define "dump"

DaemonFC

Lenovo or someone will come in and brick things that worked before.

immibis

mjg59_: that's why you have the chain of trust. Each stage attests the next stage so that by the time you get to a malicious stage, the TPM already knows something is different

DaemonFC

And if they don't, Intel and Microsoft will.

bnchs

mjg59_, dump the data stored in it

bnchs

private keys

etc

ooh, remote attestation

mjg59_

bnchs: No

DaemonFC

Why in the fuck would system firmware NEED that?

activelow

BIOS/UEFI is the "real" OS itself with direct access to hardware; any other is merely a supervised and jailed guest system

bnchs

DaemonFC, lol modern computers really be like that

DaemonFC

Why do I want it reaching out, independent of the OS, and accessing the Internet?

DaemonFC

How does that SECURE my laptop?

bnchs

i'm pretty sure a computer from 2010s won't complain about internet connection

mjg59_

activelow: No, UEFI provides no meaningful runtime interface and the OS retains full access to the hardware

immibis

mjg59_: assuming it's not integrated with your processor

MinceR

apparently they've redefined what "secure" means

immibis

DaemonFC: it secures it from yourself. Remember, it's not your laptop, it's Microsoft's.

DaemonFC

BIOS systems (Legacy BIOS) were so much more pleasant.

immibis

Microsoft's laptop is secure from you.

MinceR

to them, it means that your laptop has the standard set of vulnerabilities passed from on high by your would-be owners at MICROS~1.

MinceR

oh, and backdoors

DaemonFC

Unfortunately, they're all getting so old that even most GNU/Linux distros barely run on them anymore.

bnchs

the only thing i liked about UEFI

DaemonFC

The last ones that went out were like early 2009 I think.

bnchs

was about the ability to boot many EFI files

bnchs

other than that it's shit

DaemonFC

I bought one of the last anticipating uEFI would be a big shitheap.

SomeH4x0r

what is getting old?

activelow

mjg59_: just because firmware doesn't expose various interfaces doesn't mean those didn't exist

DaemonFC

And it's an even bigger shitheap than I thought it would be.

DaemonFC

And mjg59_ seems to think it's great.

DaemonFC

He's in the minority. People who actually have to use systems with it don't like it.

MinceR

well, it's "modern" and it's pushed by MICROS~1 _and_ ibm/deadrat, so it's got to be great.

immibis

someone will probably write a BIOS to UEFI adapter

immibis

BIOS is full of outdated legacy crap technology

MinceR

i'll take "outdated legacy crap" over a "modern" tumor that's designed to lock me into Backdoors any time.

The BIOS Boot specification meant that that limitation was more or less irrelevant.

MinceR

it consisted of the CLI and HLT instructions in the boot sector

DaemonFC

GRUB knows what GPT partitioning is, even on a BIOS system.

activelow

and legacy BIOS implemented various device drivers for usb, pata/sata, vga, serial i/o (recalling coreboot, u-boot), which are duplicated by the operating system; and "BIOS"/UEFI offer a shell

mjg59_

DaemonFC: It was fine as long as you could ensure that your kernel was in the <2TB region

If you can just get all of the GPLv3 code out of the way, then it makes life easier on the parasites.

And that's why Apple did the GPL purge.

MinceR

it solves one problem: that of systemd not having a bootloader built into it

DaemonFC

systemd as an init system is quite reasonable. The rest of the crap behind it is not

title: "Vimeo is holding our Patreon catalogue hostage"

*immibis_ is now known as immibis

schestowitz

wait

schestowitz

are you saying that video hosting sites lack a business model? ;-)

immibis

well, youtube has one. ads and data

immibis

turns out, it is ads and data, excessive fees, or eating the rich

schestowitz

"Pay Vimeo between $8,000-$9000 a year, or our account will be deactivated and all videos hosted through Vimeo will be gone. Their figure for a 2 year plan is $16,500…"

schestowitz

LOL

schestowitz

enjoy!!!

schestowitz

immibis: how do you know:

schestowitz

1) gulagtube is profitable

schestowitz

2) gulagtube is profitable AND not losing users due to it?

immibis

why would gulagtube still exist if it was not

schestowitz

3) gulagtube will continue to be profitable

*Despatche has quit (connection closed)

MinceR

because gulag can afford to maintain it at a loss

immibis

they either expect profit now or later

schestowitz

for similarity (1-3), look back at what Twitter did in 2018

schestowitz

you might 'cash in' for a few quarter and then the users flee

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

schestowitz

immibis: no

schestowitz

it's also politically strategic

schestowitz

a lot of tech companies are maintained by loans from the American taxpayers

schestowitz

national dent

immibis

oh they want to usher in the communist new world order where you'll own nothing and be happy?

schestowitz

they keep infusing money to keep a lid on other superpowers

schestowitz

otherwise china/tiktok can have leverage over minds

schestowitz

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Full-spectrum dominance - Wikipedia

schestowitz

but on a more mental/sympathetic level

schestowitz

like funding radio channels in eastern europe

schestowitz

gulagtube was not proftable wqhen it was sold

schestowitz

GitHub = same

schestowitz

so they allegedly paid billions (in paper) for staff and a losing operation

schestowitz

hoping to turn that into money, power, or both

schestowitz

or into "too big to fail"

immibis

tech companies pay for users they can extort money from later

schestowitz

that too

schestowitz

IF they can turn them into paying clients

schestowitz

and that's a big IF

schestowitz

many fail

schestowitz

I looked into LBRY too years ago

schestowitz

it was ugly

schestowitz

so we only self-host the videos

schestowitz

more and more sites do this now

schestowitz

the football clubs started hosting their own audio/video

XRevan86

It's flawed as heck but it's not ugly, at least not anymore.

schestowitz

RT based a lot of its stuff on US services/disservices

schestowitz

because they're naive

schestowitz

RT is a rogue actor

schestowitz

rogue and stupid is a good mix

XRevan86

Or they didn't expect that shit would hit the fan.

immibis

RT is not stupid

schestowitz

because the rogue gets undermined by its own lack of foresight

*bnchs___ has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

schestowitz

RT and other rogues were relying too much on Gulagtube

schestowitz

and cranks like Ike, Alex Jones etc.

immibis

gotta go where the users are

schestowitz

Gulag also shut down more moderate voices like Corbet Report

schestowitz

and they keep sweeping closer and closer to the center

schestowitz

is CCTV (China) banned yet? Or just flagged?

schestowitz

immibis: until you "go"

MinceR

LBRY was replaced by odysee, which doesn't serve video streams anymore

MinceR

even the main page is sluggish

schestowitz

"go" into /dev/null

schestowitz

odysee is making its issues shallow to see

schestowitz

inc. some rather tasteless recommendation

schestowitz

even worse than gulag's

schestowitz

it's going down the bin or the binshute

schestowitz

*chute

schestowitz

liveleaks is dead btw

MinceR

i haven't tried BitchUte yet

schestowitz

there's no business model in hosting videos for OTHER people whose work YOU do not care for

schestowitz

that's why so many social control media sites are shutting down

schestowitz

they are all ticking time bombs

because bypassing that is doable

if they are not profitable how does increasing their expenses help them get more profit?

it would be interesting to see which of these services really are profitable and which are simply pulling the wal mart model of undercut now, enjoy monopoly later, profit

china: "we take influence"

they borrowed 11 TRILLION since (~ two years)

schestowitz

how much of that went to actual households struggling with basics? 2?

matey

mexican capitalism: let american businesses use nafta like a crowbar

matey

but if you keep going south a similar thing happens

schestowitz

china: we make little profit by paying very little to sweatshop workers

probably because nafta wasnt all that different from cafta

schestowitz

always small

schestowitz

but it adds up

sorry, $59 without the discount

its a bit different than somewhere where the host has more leverage than the users (paid or gratis)

also the paying users of netflix have no leverage either

they can pay or not pay, thats it

matey

drug dealers run the churches?

schestowitz

so you cannot compete with them unless you too can afford to lose a ton of money

matey

does that make them the opium smugglers of the masses?

schestowitz

and hope for an upswing/inflection point some time in the future

schestowitz

if you are ICBM, you make up a new company

schestowitz

and offload dying things onto it

schestowitz

but they hide it

schestowitz

mostly by rebranding old things "Azure"

immibis

google says cloudflare's profit margin is -40% - i'm sure they can afford to raise prices by 40%

schestowitz

Gulag's AWS rival make HUUUUGE losses

schestowitz

like billions per quarter

immibis

btw when there is a lot of unprofitable stuff happening, that means it's time for a market crash and recession

schestowitz

yes

immibis

hope you shorted azure and gulag

schestowitz

you just follow my thinking here

schestowitz

a lot of these companies are making up bubbles

immibis

it's been time for a recession for several years now; hasn't happened

matey

when arguing that google needs to consider a model based on government funding, why not consider that they already have one

schestowitz

and drag people's savings accounts into them

schestowitz

because interest rates in the banks are near 0%

schestowitz

with inflation gone mad, so in essense the savings shrink (in purchasing power)

matey

it's been time for a recession for several years now <- lots of ways to postpone such a thing

schestowitz

matey: they do

schestowitz

see what happened the past 3 weeks

matey

schestowitz: thats my point

schestowitz

and even without banning

schestowitz

they derank and flag things

immibis

or rather, tries to counteract it (thus controlling it)

matey

regulates

regulates is a good word - like a pressure regulator, not like the FDA

schestowitz

"open your purse" has become "open your zipper"

kingoffrance

unity of opposites matey :)

matey

control might give them too much credit

schestowitz

warch how the curve goes vertical around 2020

matey

when it does thing they cant stop even if they want it to, its still regulation, its not control

immibis

schestowitz: if you are betting on that, then I hope you took out as much debt as possible, because the USD will become worthless

schestowitz

it's not like this year suddenly it'll plataea

immibis

matey: thing can only happen when money is abundant

immibis

or rather time*money

schestowitz

debt is paid back with interest

schestowitz

and they can take stuff of yours

schestowitz

which can lose a lot of value very quickly

schestowitz

your 10,000 pound cars now worth 1,000

immibis

the fed controls the price of time*money. Companies need time*money to do stuff and the more they have the more stuff they will do, scraping lower and lower into the barrel

schestowitz

"we'll have that, thanks, that's 1000 off your debt"

schestowitz

"but my car cost 10k"

schestowitz

"yeah yeah.... whatever... they always say that'\

immibis

schestowitz: but you are predicting that we're in the hyperinflation timeline. So your car is worth 100 billion

kingoffrance

immibis, fed is PPP. they are both appointed by government, but were deliberately meant to be business people...because they didnt trust gov wont just rig things to win an election. this was how it was sold, eliminating panics, long-term, letting the experts run things instead of politicians

kingoffrance

ignore shares for the moment etc.

schestowitz

right now in usland [sic] most companies that are "most successful" are also loss leader

immibis

If the government debt curve goes vertical, then soon after that, the government will either default on its debt (meaning nobody will want US$ ever again) or the government will print unlimited amounts of it (meaning nobody will want US$ ever again)

schestowitz

the fact that the eu benefit germant and france more than the uk pretty much guaranteed brexit sooner or later (good or bad, just inevitable)

schestowitz

that they bet on getting more sites hooks

schestowitz

then something will happen

immibis

why does the EU benefit germany and france more than the UK?

schestowitz

they are there for shareholders, not sites

immibis

every business is for shareholders

because the eu lets germany and france pretty much run the show

Mar 15 23:42

kingoffrance

way back with woodrow wilson, they had to get william jennings bryan on board. so fed was given the appearance of "public" money, but this just meant the gov would pick up any debts, just thought it was the only way it would pass. didn't really matter perhaps until the depression. point: PPP: private made public legal tender. gov/public on the hook for it. PPP/both. any alone "public" or "private" analysis will fail, its a partner
