matey | its like changing desktop wallpaper | Mar 16 00:41 |
matey | desktop wallpaper is a fun one | Mar 16 00:41 |
matey | youd think wallpaper would be on a wall, not on a desk | Mar 16 00:42 |
matey | but on a computer this makes sense now | Mar 16 00:42 |

matey | "whats all this then?" | Mar 16 00:44 |
matey | "he was attacking me" | Mar 16 00:44 |
matey | "attacking you? he was just standing there" | Mar 16 00:44 |

matey | "i dont follow you, friend" | Mar 16 00:45 |
matey | "its an election year!" | Mar 16 00:45 |
matey | kingoffrance: i think its much worse than that. its not just elections, its any opportunity of significant proportions, regardless of the season | Mar 16 00:46 |
matey | elections do happen to be (some sort of) opportunity of significant proportions | Mar 16 00:47 |
matey | libreplanet for example, isnt an election (as far as i know) | Mar 16 00:48 |
matey | it seems to be THE opportunity for revolutionary (or counterrevolutionary) struggles within the free software world though | Mar 16 00:48 |
matey | 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022 | Mar 16 00:49 |

kingoffrance | matey, well its the left/right nonsense | Mar 16 01:17 |
kingoffrance | if you arent with me, DESTROY | Mar 16 01:17 |
kingoffrance | *if in my little one dimensional view you are not with me | Mar 16 01:18 |
matey | surely theres a point to fighting if you know what youre doing | Mar 16 01:18 |
kingoffrance | ^ yes, thats a big assumption | Mar 16 01:18 |
matey | though its hard to know what youre doing when everything gets reduced to red team blue team | Mar 16 01:18 |
matey | since the real world is nothing like that | Mar 16 01:19 |
kingoffrance | there used to be a trinity to prevent that is the irony | Mar 16 01:19 |
schestowitz-TR | kingoffrance: it's a binary/dual divide and rule | Mar 16 01:19 |
schestowitz-TR | in India the British did that | Mar 16 01:19 |
schestowitz-TR | Islam and Hundu | Mar 16 01:19 |
schestowitz-TR | in Iraq, shia and sunni | Mar 16 01:19 |
matey | the british were worth defeating though | Mar 16 01:19 |
schestowitz-TR | it helps distract from real occupiers | Mar 16 01:20 |
schestowitz-TR | people are busy trying to classify everyone | Mar 16 01:20 |
matey | but their classification sucks | Mar 16 01:20 |
schestowitz-TR | people tried that against techrights of course | Mar 16 01:20 |
schestowitz-TR | because we focus on the real issue | Mar 16 01:20 |
schestowitz-TR | and they would rather we play with poo | Mar 16 01:21 |
schestowitz-TR | and offend people | Mar 16 01:21 |
schestowitz-TR | not corporations but people | Mar 16 01:21 |
matey | people matter more than corporations? | Mar 16 01:21 |
schestowitz-TR | no, not the point | Mar 16 01:21 |
matey | oh thats not the real issue | Mar 16 01:22 |
schestowitz-TR | I mean, don't frame it like that | Mar 16 01:22 |
matey | whats the real issue? | Mar 16 01:22 |
schestowitz-TR | people have feelings | Mar 16 01:22 |
matey | "not corporations but people" sounded like a good start at least | Mar 16 01:22 |
schestowitz-TR | corporations and money are made-up concepts | Mar 16 01:22 |
schestowitz-TR | so you could in theory eliminate or replace them | Mar 16 01:22 |
matey | except they hold the most power | Mar 16 01:23 |
matey | even though they are made up | Mar 16 01:23 |
schestowitz-TR | their relationship to living beings does matter | Mar 16 01:23 |
schestowitz-TR | or technology and people | Mar 16 01:23 |
schestowitz-TR | like how people get attached to an "instagram account" | Mar 16 01:23 |
matey | and if people want to stand up to corporations and their abuses, then what? | Mar 16 01:23 |
schestowitz-TR | 20 years ago nobody was very attachd to a phone | Mar 16 01:23 |

matey | 40 years ago you were only attached to a phone until you hung up | Mar 16 01:24 |
schestowitz-TR | or if you hung yourelf | Mar 16 01:24 |
schestowitz-TR | unles the police came | Mar 16 01:24 |

matey | hanging up seems less drastic | Mar 16 01:24 |
*birkoff has quit (Ping timeout: 120 seconds) | Mar 16 01:24 | |

schestowitz-TR | well, dark humour | Mar 16 01:25 |
matey | sure, no problem | Mar 16 01:25 |
schestowitz-TR | btw, iirc ian murdoch used the vacuum cleaner's cord for hanging | Mar 16 01:25 |
schestowitz-TR | and had no shirt on | Mar 16 01:25 |
schestowitz-TR | if the account I saw was correct | Mar 16 01:25 |
matey | i thought ian murdock was one of the good guys | Mar 16 01:25 |
schestowitz-TR | *urdock | Mar 16 01:25 |
schestowitz-TR | ouch | Mar 16 01:25 |
schestowitz-TR | force of habit | Mar 16 01:26 |
matey | yeah the aussie | Mar 16 01:26 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe he will outlive kissinger | Mar 16 01:26 |
schestowitz-TR | 15 years more? | Mar 16 01:26 |
kingoffrance | i hope i dont sound too negative, just seems so many things were already encountered centuries ago and forgotten and things have to repeat | Mar 16 01:26 |
matey | we can race him against github | Mar 16 01:26 |
schestowitz-TR | github won't last 15 years | Mar 16 01:26 |
matey | kingoffrance: the early 1900s especially | Mar 16 01:26 |
schestowitz-TR | 15 is a long time | Mar 16 01:27 |
schestowitz-TR | and the arctic vault will be some old joke | Mar 16 01:27 |

schestowitz-TR | not just that | Mar 16 01:27 |
kingoffrance | i read too many weird things lol | Mar 16 01:27 |
schestowitz-TR | tecgright explained it at the time | Mar 16 01:27 |
schestowitz-TR | it was a PR stunt to distract from ICE | Mar 16 01:27 |
matey | at least you read, kingoffrance | Mar 16 01:27 |
schestowitz-TR | lots of shithub workers, inc. managers, were fleeing in droves | Mar 16 01:28 |

schestowitz-TR | *stopped | Mar 16 01:28 |
schestowitz-TR | cut off the rage cycle | Mar 16 01:28 |
matey | i mean they had to announce it | Mar 16 01:28 |
matey | but right when people were like "why no rms" | Mar 16 01:28 |
schestowitz-TR | fsf distracted from nothing at the time | Mar 16 01:29 |
schestowitz-TR | unless it was us saying something about no RMS talk | Mar 16 01:29 |
schestowitz-TR | later in the same day came the announcement | Mar 16 01:29 |
matey | libreplanet does seem to be the point where everyone (on either side) hates the fsf that much more | Mar 16 01:29 |
schestowitz-TR | I cannot prove it, but something is amiss for LF/IRC | Mar 16 01:29 |
schestowitz-TR | and IRS | Mar 16 01:29 |
schestowitz-TR | and when it's brought up LF flings the whole pipeline at a wall | Mar 16 01:30 |
matey | it would be news if something at lf was NOT amiss | Mar 16 01:30 |
schestowitz-TR | so I think it's a thorn on their side | Mar 16 01:30 |
schestowitz-TR | can someone contact LF to ask? | Mar 16 01:30 |
schestowitz-TR | I cannot, obviously... | Mar 16 01:30 |
schestowitz-TR | I am on their naughty list | Mar 16 01:30 |
schestowitz-TR | ask them why no IRS filing for so long | Mar 16 01:30 |

schestowitz-TR | those are methods | Mar 16 01:33 |
schestowitz-TR | they hire "crisis management" experts | Mar 16 01:34 |

schestowitz-TR | the EPO hired some | Mar 16 01:34 |

Ariadne | what is your point | Mar 16 01:45 |
schestowitz | jjust to be clear about LE | Mar 16 01:45 |
matey | thats was lifted, no? | Mar 16 01:45 |
schestowitz | the only reason I checked was,t | Mar 16 01:45 |
schestowitz | to see if they have more recent forms than LF | Mar 16 01:45 |
schestowitz | beause LF acts a little weird when the subject is brought up | Mar 16 01:45 |
mjg59_ | matey: No, Roy refuses to publish articles I write | Mar 16 01:46 |
Ariadne | admittedly i am curious about the LE financials | Mar 16 01:46 |
mjg59_ | matey: Despite accepting articles from other guest writers | Mar 16 01:46 |
matey | his editorial policy is unclear | Mar 16 01:46 |
matey | he alludes to it being based on trust | Mar 16 01:46 |
Ariadne | because LE is such a critical infrastructure at this point | Mar 16 01:46 |
mjg59_ | Debian no longer trusts Pocock, so stopped publishing him on Planet Debian | Mar 16 01:46 |
matey | the real fun would be creating a clear editorial policy that wasnt a code fo conduct | Mar 16 01:46 |
matey | i believe its possible, but also unlikely. | Mar 16 01:46 |
mjg59_ | Censorship or reasonable editorial decision? | Mar 16 01:46 |
matey | hey im guessing, just like you | Mar 16 01:47 |
schestowitz-TR | abtterinternet.org | Mar 16 01:47 |

Ariadne | to me LF seems like a black box | Mar 16 01:47 |
schestowitz-TR | submitted end of 2020 | Mar 16 01:47 |
matey | my problem with codes of conduct isnt what they try to achieve, only the application of zero tolerance policies in practice | Mar 16 01:47 |
schestowitz-TR | 15 months ago | Mar 16 01:47 |
matey | they had things before codes of conduct that were "similar" that i rarely complained about | Mar 16 01:48 |
matey | it isnt the words "code of conduct" that bother me. | Mar 16 01:48 |
schestowitz-TR | josh aas is there | Mar 16 01:48 |
schestowitz-TR | also in LF | Mar 16 01:48 |
Ariadne | they pay FOSS developers to do things their corporate donors want, but the whole money trail is very βdeal-orientedβ | Mar 16 01:48 |
matey | its the zero tolerance policies (even when couched in mitigating langauge that seems to have no application in practice) | Mar 16 01:48 |
schestowitz-TR | did lisbeth leave? | Mar 16 01:48 |
*AdmFubar (~mradmin@ngqaam7baxnug.irc) has joined #techrights | Mar 16 01:48 | |
Ariadne | thatβs just bad community management | Mar 16 01:49 |
matey | And then when people ask Roy about it he changes topic <- moving on... | Mar 16 01:49 |
matey | im of mixed feelings about this of course | Mar 16 01:49 |
matey | on the one hand, if i were in roys shoes and you asked me something i would probably be just as evasive | Mar 16 01:50 |
mjg59_ | Anyway, it's unsurprising that multiple non-profits would use the same accountant | Mar 16 01:50 |
matey | but the real question is, does anyone else get a better or clearer answer? thats where we differ | Mar 16 01:50 |
Ariadne | the LF funding Alpineβs security team was a good thing imo | Mar 16 01:50 |
mjg59_ | Or have overlap in people filling a specific role | Mar 16 01:50 |
matey | but they no longer fund alpine? | Mar 16 01:50 |

matey | i dont think thats the real point either-- his i mean | Mar 16 01:53 |
matey | this is about access to an audience, just like its beside the point if roy can host his own microblog when twitter censors | Mar 16 01:53 |
Ariadne | because pocock uses the right keywords he was able to convince roy to give him a platform on techrights to harass FOSS contributors | Mar 16 01:53 |
matey | and its not even about guaranteed access | Mar 16 01:53 |
Ariadne | that i believe is the point :) | Mar 16 01:54 |
matey | that may be the point, even though im not sure what it has to do with mjg59_s question | Mar 16 01:54 |
MinceR | does Roy have an obligation to host anyone's blog posts if they ask for it? | Mar 16 01:54 |
mjg59_ | No | Mar 16 01:54 |
matey | definitely not | Mar 16 01:55 |
matey | but thats not what anyone was asking | Mar 16 01:55 |
mjg59_ | Does Twitter have an obligation to host anyone's tweets if they ask for it? | Mar 16 01:55 |
MinceR | then i still don't get the point | Mar 16 01:55 |
MinceR | no, they don't | Mar 16 01:55 |
MinceR | and they won't | Mar 16 01:55 |
schestowitz | maybe liesbeth retired | Mar 16 01:55 |
matey | the goal here is to understand his policy | Mar 16 01:55 |

matey | for me its academic and out of curiosity | Mar 16 01:55 |
matey | i imagine it is for mjg59_ as well | Mar 16 01:55 |

matey | if rms was upset by something that was actually being said, it was on a level that the audience was far from privy to | Mar 16 02:15 |
mjg59_ | Like, SFC is right now engaging in a new strategy that, if successful, would allow anyone in California to enforce the GPL even if they're not an author | Mar 16 02:15 |
schestowitz-TR | he is not anti-GPL | Mar 16 02:15 |
mjg59_ | This is not the behaviour of an organisation that is attempting to undermine the GPL | Mar 16 02:15 |
matey | Like, SFC is right now engaging in a new strategy that, if successful, would allow anyone in California to enforce the GPL even if they're not an author <- this seems like a double edged sword | Mar 16 02:15 |
matey | on the one hand, it means an end to cla, which is awesome | Mar 16 02:16 |
matey | and on the cost side, it could mean something even worse | Mar 16 02:16 |
mjg59_ | matey: Really? The problem we have at the moment is that a lot of major contributors to GPLed projects are against enforcement because it's not good for their employer | Mar 16 02:16 |
mjg59_ | So it's hard to take any meaningful action | Mar 16 02:16 |
matey | i think we agree on the problem | Mar 16 02:16 |
matey | on the other side is misgivings (perhaps unrealistic ones) about the solution | Mar 16 02:17 |
mjg59_ | In an ideal world the corporations would be in favour of enforcement, but that's clearly not going to happen | Mar 16 02:17 |
matey | right, im not a utopian | Mar 16 02:17 |
matey | so waiting for corporations to do the right thing isnt in my playbook | Mar 16 02:17 |
mjg59_ | The only practical way to skew the balance is to give more power to the users | Mar 16 02:17 |
matey | but at a price? | Mar 16 02:17 |
mjg59_ | Rather than granting enforcement rights purely to the copyright holders | Mar 16 02:18 |
matey | right now the problem is, unless youre a large copyright holder (ibm, canonical, the fsf) | Mar 16 02:18 |
mjg59_ | The GPL is pretty worthless unless it's enforced | Mar 16 02:18 |
matey | you cant defend the gpl | Mar 16 02:18 |
matey | eright | Mar 16 02:18 |
matey | we are on the same page regarding the problem | Mar 16 02:18 |
matey | suppose it gets fixed | Mar 16 02:18 |
matey | now, instead of not being able to defend your work against gpl violations | Mar 16 02:18 |
mjg59_ | If a consequence of this change was that companies stopped contributing to GPLed projects, then that's effectively just the status quo | Mar 16 02:19 |
matey | maybe now only large companies can defend their USE of gpl against alleged violations | Mar 16 02:19 |

*birkoff has quit (Ping timeout: 120 seconds) | Mar 16 02:20 | |

mjg59_ | matey: I'd be worried about it if corporations started doing it to squash competition, but they'd end up in the same boat - even Google, who have a whole team of people to do GPL compliance, repeatedly fuck up meeting the letter of it | Mar 16 02:20 |
matey | id like to avoid a future where the next apple vs samsung is over the gpl. | Mar 16 02:21 |
mjg59_ | The approach the SFC is taking wouldn't establish that customers are entitled to damages | Mar 16 02:21 |
Ariadne | itβs ok apple and samsung have largely banned GPL inside their orgs | Mar 16 02:21 |
mjg59_ | The only thing that could come out of a case is a requirement to come into compliance | Mar 16 02:21 |
matey | they might pick it back up if they could weaponise it, everybody wins | Mar 16 02:21 |
matey | its possible im being cynical. i think even that is better than being too optimistic. | Mar 16 02:22 |
mjg59_ | So someone tries this suit on you, you come into compliance, it goes away | Mar 16 02:22 |
matey | im happy for things to actually get better, i wont complain if they do. | Mar 16 02:22 |
matey | So someone tries this suit on you, you come into compliance, it goes away <- that exactly what SHOULD happen | Mar 16 02:22 |
matey | so what is this doing in california? | Mar 16 02:22 |
mjg59_ | Courts tend not to favour people who jump straight to suits without trying to solve the problem otherwise | Mar 16 02:22 |

Ariadne | i think itβs better from a business perspective to just release patches to the community in good faith | Mar 16 02:22 |

Ariadne | turns out if you do the right thing indiscriminately then nobody has anything to complain about | Mar 16 02:23 |
matey | im not convinced the gpl is better in practice. im sure its better in theory, and it might be better in practice. | Mar 16 02:23 |
Ariadne | itβs a complicated topic | Mar 16 02:23 |
matey | it absolutely is | Mar 16 02:23 |
Ariadne | gplv3 authors had lofty and worthwhile ambitions | Mar 16 02:23 |
matey | agpl3 too | Mar 16 02:24 |
matey | but google didnt like | Mar 16 02:24 |
Ariadne | yes | Mar 16 02:24 |
mjg59_ | matey: https://sfconservancy.org/press/qanda.html covers it | Mar 16 02:24 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-sfconservancy.org | Press - Software Freedom Conservancy | Mar 16 02:24 | |
matey | :/ | Mar 16 02:24 |
matey | noted | Mar 16 02:24 |
Ariadne | but in practice, gplv3 failed to capture key ecosystem participants | Mar 16 02:24 |
matey | linus at the very least | Mar 16 02:25 |
matey | in before roy: due to lobbying | Mar 16 02:25 |
Ariadne | so, due to that, itβs a mess and apache wound up taking over | Mar 16 02:25 |
Ariadne | linus and fsf have different philosophies on copyleft | Mar 16 02:25 |
matey | how did apache take over? | Mar 16 02:25 |
matey | yeah linus found something he liked and used it (i mean the license) | Mar 16 02:25 |
Ariadne | apache 2 is a good license and more palatable to corporate interests | Mar 16 02:25 |
matey | and the fsf uses it for what they created it for | Mar 16 02:25 |
matey | if i thought i could repel corporate interests just by slapping gpl on there, i would consider it a plus | Mar 16 02:26 |
Ariadne | agpl is a problem because of monorepos | Mar 16 02:26 |
matey | monorepos? | Mar 16 02:27 |
Ariadne | google hates it because they have a giant monorepo with all of their stuff in it | Mar 16 02:27 |
matey | oh yeah | Mar 16 02:27 |
matey | and agpl doesnt work well with that | Mar 16 02:27 |
Ariadne | and they think introducing agpl to the monorepo opens a pandoraβs box | Mar 16 02:27 |
matey | which it probably doesnt, but one cant be too careful | Mar 16 02:27 |
MinceR | one could organize their code the way a sane person would | Mar 16 02:27 |
matey | "dont be insane" | Mar 16 02:28 |
MinceR | but that's probably too much to ask of megacorporations | Mar 16 02:28 |
Ariadne | well thereβs advantages to having a monorepo | Mar 16 02:28 |
matey | especially non-evil ones | Mar 16 02:28 |
Ariadne | mostly automated QA | Mar 16 02:28 |
Ariadne | with a monorepo there is one QA pipeline to maintain verses one per repo | Mar 16 02:28 |
matey | i would think google was more than capable of transcending the file system (and with it, the repo) in any way they pleased | Mar 16 02:29 |
matey | after connecting all their servers together i would expect them to take one look at git and say "hmm, quaint" | Mar 16 02:29 |
Ariadne | lawyers have a different worldview | Mar 16 02:29 |
matey | dont they always | Mar 16 02:29 |
matey | we should have never invented them | Mar 16 02:30 |
Ariadne | even at $dayjob we have a monorepo for internal services | Mar 16 02:30 |
MinceR | we should have never allowed sociopaths to get away from being confined and treated, to isntead rule us all | Mar 16 02:30 |
MinceR | s/isn/ins/ | Mar 16 02:30 |
*birkoff (birkoff@joseon-2mn.d28.de28dt.IP) has joined #techrights | Mar 16 02:31 | |
Ariadne | though we use separate repos for actual public facing projects | Mar 16 02:31 |
matey | unfortunately sociopaths can be quite wily, even captive ones | Mar 16 02:32 |
MinceR | indeed | Mar 16 02:32 |
matey | the public is insufficiently equipped to deal with them, so it falls (of course) to other bodies that are themselves run (oops) by sociopaths | Mar 16 02:33 |
matey | we should have equipped the public maybe. i can think of few instances where "its for their own good" applies more strongly | Mar 16 02:34 |
kingoffrance | need x to overcome x ...we are back to alchemy/isis again :D | Mar 16 02:35 |
matey | hey i was not saying we need sociopaths to overcome sociopaths | Mar 16 02:35 |
kingoffrance | i know :D | Mar 16 02:35 |
matey | okay good | Mar 16 02:35 |

reptoidz | hack your neighbor and use their wifi to sign up | Mar 16 03:17 |
matey | you might be able to check tutanota with tor, good luck signing up | Mar 16 03:17 |
matey | hack your neighbor and use their wifi to sign up <- i mean, im sure theres a library that works | Mar 16 03:18 |

matey | so the idea is just like nfts right? | Mar 16 03:45 |
*reptoidz is on the edge of her seat | Mar 16 03:45 | |
matey | but nfts are so limited | Mar 16 03:45 |

matey | what i want to do is combine something like dns, tradmark and nft together | Mar 16 03:46 |
matey | so that entire companies have an nft | Mar 16 03:46 |

DaemonFC | Most of the episodes are really badly written, but he's a strong lead. | Mar 16 11:17 |

DaemonFC | Yes, and Stalin liked Coca Cola so much there was a secret product made just for him. | Mar 16 11:32 |
DaemonFC | "White Coke" which was intended to not make it obvious what he was drinking. | Mar 16 11:33 |
matey | coca cola was never a nice company | Mar 16 11:33 |

DaemonFC | While Russians had to make do with whatever they could get and were told that the West was degenerate, Stalin was cracking open cans of Coke smuggled in through embassies in Moscow. | Mar 16 11:33 |
matey | oh it wasnt just stalin-- but it was because of stalin | Mar 16 11:34 |
matey | the state under his leadership was like that in general | Mar 16 11:34 |

matey | youre missing the point that these were tokens of friendship | Mar 16 11:36 |

schestowitz-TR | but earlier you mentioned massacare footage | Mar 16 12:08 |
bnchs | yes that was an example | Mar 16 12:08 |
schestowitz-TR | I worry about the minds of people who WANT to watch that | Mar 16 12:08 |
schestowitz-TR | also, that might reward the terrorism | Mar 16 12:08 |
schestowitz-TR | it might even give incentive to copycats | Mar 16 12:08 |
matey | a greater concern for brits under thatcher than americans at least | Mar 16 12:09 |

schestowitz-TR | that's not a media blackout per se | Mar 16 12:10 |
schestowitz-TR | the terror footage | Mar 16 12:10 |

matey | these days a lot of people want to analyse footage for non-macabre reasons | Mar 16 12:10 |
bnchs | yes its watered down | Mar 16 12:10 |
matey | for example, theres a lot of crime solving going on online | Mar 16 12:10 |
bnchs | the day that christchurch shooting happened | Mar 16 12:11 |
matey | they use real footage for clues and solve actual mysteries | Mar 16 12:11 |
bnchs | the media only showed seconds of the footage | Mar 16 12:11 |
matey | sometimes | Mar 16 12:11 |
bnchs | also christchurch was the day | Mar 16 12:11 |
matey | as unpleasant as the footage is, it does have legitimate purposes. sony v betamax comes to mind | Mar 16 12:11 |
matey | if there is a legitimate use... | Mar 16 12:11 |
bnchs | that gulagtube removed the ability to sort videos | Mar 16 12:11 |
bnchs | temporarily | Mar 16 12:11 |
matey | of course reason isnt likely to win out because look, dead bodies | Mar 16 12:12 |
matey | but theres still a rational argument to be made for not banning the footage outright | Mar 16 12:12 |
bnchs | i actually did watch the footage | Mar 16 12:12 |
bnchs | it was too low quality | Mar 16 12:12 |
bnchs | most likely because it was boardcasting in facebook live | Mar 16 12:13 |
bnchs | and some gopro-to-live stream middleware | Mar 16 12:13 |
bnchs | anyway schestowitz-TR, people should have the right to look for the uncut footage | Mar 16 12:15 |
bnchs | mainly for educational reasons | Mar 16 12:15 |
schestowitz-TR | defiine eduction | Mar 16 12:15 |
schestowitz-TR | how to maximise headshots? | Mar 16 12:15 |
bnchs | no | Mar 16 12:15 |
bnchs | there were some footage before he shot up that place | Mar 16 12:16 |
bnchs | he had weapons with lots of text written on them | Mar 16 12:16 |
bnchs | and also the places the shooter went looking for | Mar 16 12:17 |
matey | new features for moodle | Mar 16 12:18 |
schestowitz-TR | bnchs: that's education? | Mar 16 12:18 |
bnchs | and theres also a small "shooting" happened that also had the footage released uncut | Mar 16 12:18 |
bnchs | the shooter was clumsy as fuck | Mar 16 12:19 |
matey | suddenly all the ads you get while browsing are for ammo and dark clothing | Mar 16 12:19 |
bnchs | schestowitz-TR: well i dont know | Mar 16 12:19 |

schestowitz-TR | you said it was for education | Mar 16 12:20 |
schestowitz-TR | it's not | Mar 16 12:20 |
schestowitz-TR | it's for intelligence | Mar 16 12:20 |
schestowitz-TR | it is for you to get flagged by your country's intel agencies | Mar 16 12:20 |

bnchs | really? | Mar 16 12:20 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, They successfully corralled me to online grocery orders. | Mar 16 12:20 |
bnchs | how is one guy downloading the footage | Mar 16 12:20 |
bnchs | gonna shoot up something | Mar 16 12:20 |
DaemonFC | I get more points on the credit card that way so at least there's that. | Mar 16 12:21 |
bnchs | there are people like me who were curious | Mar 16 12:21 |
schestowitz-TR | right | Mar 16 12:21 |
schestowitz-TR | and they make the shortlist | Mar 16 12:21 |
schestowitz-TR | of people more probable to become shooters | Mar 16 12:21 |
bnchs | ok | Mar 16 12:22 |
bnchs | you might aswell flag the media | Mar 16 12:22 |
bnchs | for downloading the footage | Mar 16 12:22 |
schestowitz-TR | they look for ways to prevent such incident | Mar 16 12:22 |
schestowitz-TR | one effective way is, | Mar 16 12:22 |
bnchs | i guess nobody should be looking at it | Mar 16 12:22 |
matey | this would be a more interesting conversation if roy were more familiar with the people who actually take an academic interest in footage like this | Mar 16 12:22 |
schestowitz-TR | find out who studies the thing | Mar 16 12:22 |
matey | besides sick people i mean | Mar 16 12:22 |
bnchs | matey: yes | Mar 16 12:22 |
matey | instead we are going with imagination on one side | Mar 16 12:23 |
bnchs | they study shooter behavior | Mar 16 12:23 |
schestowitz-TR | matey: depends on their background | Mar 16 12:23 |
schestowitz-TR | like, if they are forensic experts | Mar 16 12:23 |
schestowitz-TR | who try to study how to make public places safer | Mar 16 12:23 |
schestowitz-TR | or how to train secueity personnel | Mar 16 12:23 |
matey | there are people interested in becoming forensic experts who have a legitimate interest in footage of violent events | Mar 16 12:23 |
schestowitz-TR | they don't need to download it from the Web | Mar 16 12:23 |
schestowitz-TR | the state likely gives them a copy | Mar 16 12:24 |
matey | nope, this is your imagination again | Mar 16 12:24 |
matey | the people who actually do this actually get it from the web | Mar 16 12:24 |
matey | youre just not familiar with the truecrime community | Mar 16 12:24 |
matey | so you imagine what theyre like | Mar 16 12:24 |
bnchs | yes | Mar 16 12:25 |
matey | not that bnchs is doing a great job describing | Mar 16 12:25 |
matey | but you dont have to to be right | Mar 16 12:25 |

matey | if it pleases you to imagine a scenario where your prejudices outweigh reality, no one can stop you from doing so | Mar 16 12:26 |
matey | but its a real community, not a hypothetical one | Mar 16 12:26 |
schestowitz-TR | I already trhought long and hard about this | Mar 16 12:26 |
schestowitz-TR | years ago | Mar 16 12:26 |
matey | with actual traits, not ones you simply imagine | Mar 16 12:26 |
schestowitz-TR | blocking access to the manifesto was the more controversial part | Mar 16 12:26 |
schestowitz-TR | and ISPs chipping in | Mar 16 12:26 |
activelow | not communists in this case, although they weren't fundementally different | Mar 16 12:26 |
matey | lol | Mar 16 12:27 |
matey | not communists in this case, although they weren't fundementally different <- read that as roys comment at first, and wondered how it took that turn | Mar 16 12:27 |
schestowitz-TR | survivors and families of victims count also | Mar 16 12:27 |
matey | maybe | Mar 16 12:27 |
schestowitz-TR | and have a say | Mar 16 12:27 |
matey | certainly not in all instances | Mar 16 12:28 |
matey | but possibly in some | Mar 16 12:28 |
bnchs | schestowitz-TR: the shooting should be preserved for academic and archival reasons | Mar 16 12:28 |
bnchs | it would help in making public places safer | Mar 16 12:28 |
matey | its not like the networks got permission from families of 9/11 victims to show those attacks like 100 times a day. | Mar 16 12:28 |
schestowitz-TR | for access by security personnel | Mar 16 12:28 |
schestowitz-TR | for training purposes, prevention | Mar 16 12:29 |
matey | granted its not exactly the same because not a lot of faces in that footage | Mar 16 12:29 |
bnchs | there wasnt alot of faces in the footage aswell | Mar 16 12:29 |
bnchs | like i said the footage was so low quality | Mar 16 12:29 |
matey | i thought you might say that. i havent seen it. | Mar 16 12:29 |
schestowitz-TR | Denmark got it right | Mar 16 12:29 |
bnchs | it was mostly blurry | Mar 16 12:29 |
schestowitz-TR | it would not even name the perpetrator/terrorist | Mar 16 12:30 |
DaemonFC | Some reasons why the US south failed were the federal government's fault. | Mar 16 12:30 |
matey | but you did mention the low quality before | Mar 16 12:30 |
matey | what did denmark do | Mar 16 12:30 |
schestowitz-TR | no fame, no incentive | Mar 16 12:30 |
bnchs | yes | Mar 16 12:30 |
schestowitz-TR | I think only Denmark did this | Mar 16 12:30 |
schestowitz-TR | that i can recall | Mar 16 12:30 |
DaemonFC | Some were self-inflicted by state governments who couldn't get over the fact that they lost. | Mar 16 12:30 |
matey | thats thatchers solution | Mar 16 12:30 |
matey | i mean, maybe thatcher was right | Mar 16 12:30 |
matey | but i never jump to the assumption | Mar 16 12:30 |
bnchs | i mean in 9/11 | Mar 16 12:30 |
bnchs | they named osama bin laden all day long | Mar 16 12:30 |
DaemonFC | They decided that they'd rather be poor than industrialize and draw in educated people fron the north who would then vote. | Mar 16 12:30 |
DaemonFC | So they wrote their state constitutions to deter industry, essentially giving up their change at prosperity. | Mar 16 12:31 |
matey | but eventually saturn moved to smyrna tn etc | Mar 16 12:31 |
DaemonFC | Now, ironically, industry goes there because they're so poor that if they can get a job for $10 an hour building KIAs then that's what they do. | Mar 16 12:31 |
DaemonFC | America has its own third world country integrated into the economic zone already. | Mar 16 12:32 |
matey | it probably helps that most of the people who were against industry moving there would be dead | Mar 16 12:32 |
DaemonFC | It's called the Deep South. | Mar 16 12:32 |
DaemonFC | The population remains relatively stable because most people are smart enough to not want to go down there. | Mar 16 12:33 |
matey | industry does lure many | Mar 16 12:33 |
matey | or it used to, i dont know about now | Mar 16 12:33 |
matey | from what youre saying, probably | Mar 16 12:33 |
DaemonFC | Most of the KIA quality control problems actually aren't from the workers down there being paid so little. | Mar 16 12:33 |
DaemonFC | They're actually just very badly designed. | Mar 16 12:34 |
matey | compaq started in a meeting in a crappy little diner basically | Mar 16 12:34 |

DaemonFC | And you keep labor down by keeping the auto worker unions out. | Mar 16 12:35 |

matey | m not sure what your argument is, people shouldnt make screens? | Mar 16 12:44 |
schestowitz-TR | if they want to read books | Mar 16 12:44 |
schestowitz-TR | they are better off taking them from a friend or library | Mar 16 12:44 |
DaemonFC | Obviously, the sanctions do seem to be frustrating Pootie Poot, a lot. | Mar 16 12:44 |
schestowitz-TR | to read a book you should not need all this complexity | Mar 16 12:45 |
schestowitz-TR | same for cooking recipes | Mar 16 12:45 |
schestowitz-TR | or fridges with computers on them | Mar 16 12:45 |
schestowitz-TR | what for? | Mar 16 12:45 |
matey | and for websites you should just get a newspaper | Mar 16 12:45 |
schestowitz-TR | companies use these gimmicks | Mar 16 12:45 |
schestowitz-TR | and those computers where they don't belong | Mar 16 12:45 |
DaemonFC | The Russians are now willing to end the war, apparently, in exchange for Ukraine taking "neutrality" towards NATO. Other countries say sanctions won't go away unless Russia agrees to war reparations. | Mar 16 12:45 |
DaemonFC | So either way, the Russians have lost the war. | Mar 16 12:45 |
schestowitz-TR | matey: no, news changes fast | Mar 16 12:45 |
DaemonFC | Their economy will die either due to sanctions or to war reparations. | Mar 16 12:46 |
schestowitz-TR | and newspapers get discarded the same day | Mar 16 12:46 |
schestowitz-TR | I said books | Mar 16 12:46 |
DaemonFC | They get to choose. | Mar 16 12:46 |
matey | theres a load of old books on the internet archive | Mar 16 12:46 |
matey | you can read them on a screen | Mar 16 12:46 |
matey | printing them would be a bit silly | Mar 16 12:46 |
*psydroid2 grabs a webnewspaper to read | Mar 16 12:46 | |
matey | wikipedia would be much nicer on eink imo | Mar 16 12:46 |
DaemonFC | I think that the US and EU should just turn over the money it froze from Russia's forex accounts to Ukraine. | Mar 16 12:46 |
matey | but im just talking about a monitor | Mar 16 12:47 |
matey | not a self-contained ereader | Mar 16 12:47 |
schestowitz-TR | there's also the footprint of connections inftra | Mar 16 12:47 |
DaemonFC | They say the damage to property is roughly half a trillion dollars and we've seized about $400 billion I think. | Mar 16 12:47 |
matey | i dont think you understand that im just talking about a monitor | Mar 16 12:47 |
matey | if youre against computer monitors now youre sillier than i thought | Mar 16 12:47 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: the US economy ios collapsing | Mar 16 12:47 |
DaemonFC | So if the Russians won't make installments on those damages, we should just refuse to ever pay them their reserves and pay them directly to Ukraine. | Mar 16 12:47 |
schestowitz-TR | US media: LOOK OVER THA'!!! THE PUTINS !! | Mar 16 12:47 |
schestowitz-TR | matey: I said books | Mar 16 12:48 |
schestowitz-TR | you said newspapers | Mar 16 12:48 |
schestowitz-TR | then wikipedia | Mar 16 12:48 |
schestowitz-TR | there is also the production cost | Mar 16 12:48 |
matey | actually i said books as well | Mar 16 12:48 |
DaemonFC | I've heard some media speculation that Russia might pay their foreign debts with Chinese Yuan. | Mar 16 12:48 |
schestowitz-TR | a books can be passed on | Mar 16 12:48 |

bnchs | schestowitz-TR: what about DRM on digital scans of books | Mar 16 12:51 |
bnchs | or books | Mar 16 12:51 |
schestowitz-TR | 'books' | Mar 16 12:51 |
bnchs | internet archive: has a digital rental system (which is retarded) | Mar 16 12:51 |
schestowitz-TR | good luck reading them a year or a decade later | Mar 16 12:51 |
bnchs | you have to "return" the book | Mar 16 12:51 |
bnchs | after a week | Mar 16 12:51 |
matey | i dont use their bullshit drm rentals | Mar 16 12:51 |
DaemonFC | There's also a lot of ways to punish the Saudis for this without going to war with them. | Mar 16 12:51 |
bnchs | its bullshit | Mar 16 12:52 |
matey | the fsfs policy on this is sane | Mar 16 12:52 |
matey | dont use drm | Mar 16 12:52 |
DaemonFC | They like to buy weapons from us. They don't want a lot of extra oil capacity on the market competing with theirs. | Mar 16 12:52 |
kingoffrance | ^^^ yeah and people were suing IIRC saying that "rental" system is too much violates whatever law | Mar 16 12:52 |
matey | now, once you cut out all the drm crap from the internet archive | Mar 16 12:52 |
bnchs | its not like the books have limited copies | Mar 16 12:52 |
DaemonFC | If we lift sanctions on other countries and start pumping more of our own oil, then Saudi Arabia is finished. | Mar 16 12:52 |
matey | MOST of the books on there are drm free | Mar 16 12:52 |
bnchs | like in a physical library | Mar 16 12:52 |
DaemonFC | So there's a limit to how far those threats can go. | Mar 16 12:52 |
*inky_ (~inky@178.78.143.183) has joined #techrights | Mar 16 12:52 | |
bnchs | but the internet archive wants to bring that back again | Mar 16 12:52 |
matey | bring what back again | Mar 16 12:53 |
bnchs | the reason why libraries make you return books | Mar 16 12:53 |
bnchs | is because there are limited copies | Mar 16 12:53 |
matey | even though im 100% against their drm titles | Mar 16 12:53 |
bnchs | and you dont own it obviously | Mar 16 12:53 |
matey | i dont think thats the motiviation for the internet archive really | Mar 16 12:53 |
matey | their logic is, we can offer MORE books if we placate these drm arseholes | Mar 16 12:53 |
matey | which is a position im against | Mar 16 12:54 |
DaemonFC | The reason there's limited copies is because of the DRM and copyright laws. You can go find unlimited copies someone else has made on the Internet. | Mar 16 12:54 |
bnchs | theres actually software that helps crack the adobe DRM on the books | Mar 16 12:54 |
matey | but its not "hey drm is cool lets have more" | Mar 16 12:54 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, SurfShark was sued by the MPAA last year apparently. | Mar 16 12:54 |
DaemonFC | May have something to do with NordVPN taking them over. | Mar 16 12:54 |
matey | You can go find unlimited copies someone else has made on the Internet. <- which for books with drm is a better option | Mar 16 12:54 |
bnchs | DaemonFC: what about limited physical copiea | Mar 16 12:54 |
matey | drm should never be on books | Mar 16 12:54 |
matey | people who add drm to books should be launched into space | Mar 16 12:55 |
DaemonFC | The way I understand it, most VPNs have no logs to turn over because their hosting providers can't actually see what you're doing. | Mar 16 12:55 |
DaemonFC | Due to the encryption. | Mar 16 12:55 |
bnchs | matey: theres software (i think on libgen) that cracks the DRM on the PDF files | Mar 16 12:55 |
matey | good | Mar 16 12:55 |
bnchs | libgen > internet archive | Mar 16 12:55 |
matey | once again | Mar 16 12:55 |
DaemonFC | The MPAA was demanding information from the service providers about SOCKS Proxy users, which it may well get because those are unencrypted. | Mar 16 12:55 |
matey | i never recommend books on the internet archive with drm. | Mar 16 12:55 |
bnchs | yes | Mar 16 12:56 |
matey | but there are countless things there that dont have it. | Mar 16 12:56 |
bnchs | when i saw their rental system, i thought it was bullshit | Mar 16 12:56 |
matey | also its easier to put your own book on internet archive than libgen | Mar 16 12:56 |
DaemonFC | The public domain is growing again, finally. | Mar 16 12:56 |
matey | i know, because i work with people who have dealt with libgen. | Mar 16 12:56 |
bnchs | matey: libgen has anonymous upload | Mar 16 12:56 |
bnchs | right? | Mar 16 12:56 |
matey | im not sure its that simple. | Mar 16 12:57 |
matey | or maybe this wasnt libgen, maybe it was someone else. | Mar 16 12:57 |
matey | whats the closest thing to libgen? | Mar 16 12:57 |
matey | because we did use libgen the first time. | Mar 16 12:57 |
matey | libgen is the one that moved to russia for copyright reasons i think | Mar 16 12:58 |
kingoffrance | <libgen.h> is where basename and dirname live :) | Mar 16 12:58 |
bnchs | libgen has IPFS mirrors | Mar 16 12:58 |
bnchs | and torrent mirrors | Mar 16 12:58 |
matey | we had some issues with libgen or something nearly identical to it | Mar 16 12:58 |
matey | which doesnt mean libgen isnt great | Mar 16 12:58 |
bnchs | while internet archive sits on thousands of hard drives | Mar 16 12:58 |
bnchs | with no way to download it all | Mar 16 12:58 |
matey | /me sighs | Mar 16 12:59 |
matey | i could just change my nick to not-the-ones-with-drm-ffs | Mar 16 12:59 |
matey | thats probably too long actually | Mar 16 12:59 |

kingoffrance | as mincer would say | Mar 16 14:05 |
kingoffrance | fancy words for regulatory capture | Mar 16 14:05 |
kingoffrance | better way to say that: define "capitalization" | Mar 16 14:06 |
kingoffrance | since it got redefined circa 1900 for america at least | Mar 16 14:07 |
activelow | one distinction is "author's rights" cannot be transferred to anyone else, it is copyrights which can be transferred | Mar 16 14:07 |
activelow | and it is possible to infringe author's rights even when copyright was transferred and not infringed, such as claiming authorship of anyone else work, which is plagiarism for example | Mar 16 14:08 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-GitHub - samizdapp/RFC1: a draft architecture | Mar 16 14:10 | |
kingoffrance | sure, but define capitalization | Mar 16 14:12 |
kingoffrance | tehre is no capital. it got redefined to mean credit | Mar 16 14:12 |
activelow | kingoffrance: "capitalization", "commerce", to make money; meaning even if copright and license terms are complied with, author's rights may be infringed | Mar 16 14:12 |
kingoffrance | yes, banks "make credit money" all day long | Mar 16 14:12 |
kingoffrance | counterfeiters do too no help | Mar 16 14:12 |
kingoffrance | why is "the right to be paid" a right? | Mar 16 14:13 |
kingoffrance | is that like universal basic income? | Mar 16 14:13 |
activelow | it's law, such as minimum wage for example | Mar 16 14:13 |
kingoffrance | ok thank you :) | Mar 16 14:13 |
activelow | although, minimum wage is agnostic towards the work of an author, so potentially a mountain of other laws applied besides | Mar 16 14:14 |
activelow | such as anti-trust, competition laws, if any quality work was compensated (or none at all) far below "market price" | Mar 16 14:15 |
kingoffrance | the distinction i would make is: who is contracting with an "author" for them to make a "work" ? | Mar 16 14:18 |
kingoffrance | in the case of employment, it is voluntary (involuntary employment is called slavery...or draft maybe) | Mar 16 14:18 |
kingoffrance | in the case of an author making a "work" ...who contracted with them that they deserve payment? | Mar 16 14:18 |
activelow | with employment almost always copyrights are transferred to the company, and compensated with an employees salary | Mar 16 14:19 |
kingoffrance | sure | Mar 16 14:19 |
kingoffrance | s/deserve/are owed by law/ | Mar 16 14:20 |
kingoffrance | "deserve's got nothing to do with it" -- clint eastwood movie | Mar 16 14:20 |
activelow | yet, it's important, even if copyright was transferred, to a company for example, such company may not easily claim authorship, because author's rights cannot be transferred | Mar 16 14:21 |
kingoffrance | do you have any good recommendations papers/etc. to read about these distinctions? | Mar 16 14:22 |
activelow | meaning if, for example, if I designed and implemented some algorithm, and if a company claims instead they did it, this is a violation of *my* author's rights | Mar 16 14:22 |
activelow | kingoffrance: german language | Mar 16 14:22 |
kingoffrance | yes | Mar 16 14:22 |

*Noisytoot (~noisytoot@sourcehut/user/noisytoot) has joined #techrights | Mar 16 14:28 | |
activelow | anyway, this is the suspicion i have, and german military reported it regularly: unavailable spare parts and supplies (sub-marines, aircraft etc.) | Mar 16 14:33 |
activelow | and although Eurofighter as almost brand-new, put into operation year 2006, they cannot source required MC68000 series chips anymore, for example | Mar 16 14:34 |
activelow | is | Mar 16 14:34 |
activelow | now they say, F-35 aircraft shall be acquired, together with Intel dumping billions of shitcoins into EU | Mar 16 14:34 |
activelow | however, Intel has a proven track-record of long-term reliability already, with missing spare parts for the NASA space shuttle | Mar 16 14:35 |
activelow | officially, they say, it was only the Tornado jet which could carry USA nukes, however i think it isn't a huge challenge to attach any missile to Eurofighter, instead of acquisition of F-35 | Mar 16 14:36 |

*techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Mar 16 14:38 | |
activelow | some newspaper articles from year 2018 confirm suppliers of Eurofighter are defunct, and only a few of the aircraft were operational | Mar 16 14:53 |
activelow | which is remarkable, because order of *new* aircraft typically operating a lifetime of 40years or more were placed until year 2009, and few years later the suppliers are defunct already | Mar 16 14:54 |
activelow | although i cannot confirm with absolute certainty, if it is related to Motorola issues (an aircraft with engineers which crash landed into the ocean, Malaysia Airlines MH-370) | Mar 16 14:56 |
*kingoffrance sits at desk with coffee. people who make free copies of things are paying exactly what they think it is worth, which is how a market works. change my mind | Mar 16 15:13 | |
kingoffrance | what is really being argued is who has the power to set a price. if we take "minimum wage" the "crime" is people voting "directly" rather than through "representatives" | Mar 16 15:25 |
kingoffrance | *"minimum wage" versus deciding how much a "work" is worth | Mar 16 15:25 |
kingoffrance | the "right" in question is the "right" to set a price | Mar 16 15:26 |

DaemonFC | I know the farmers around here license software from IBM that's designed to predict weather patterns. | Mar 16 20:01 |
DaemonFC | It claims it reduces crop losses by advising them about what to plant and when. | Mar 16 20:01 |
DaemonFC | They bought the weather channel. | Mar 16 20:02 |

schestowitz-TR | drop ICBM | Mar 16 20:03 |
schestowitz-TR | and predict long winter | Mar 16 20:03 |
DaemonFC | There's little, if any, science behind weather prediction other than law of averages. | Mar 16 20:03 |

schestowitz-TR | 4) profit! | Mar 16 20:03 |
DaemonFC | But those averages are moving. | Mar 16 20:03 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, They don't want you to see how they grow crops. | Mar 16 20:06 |
DaemonFC | In Huntington County, Indiana, the corn fields are literally a small dirt road about 12 feet wide between the edge of the corn and the county dump. | Mar 16 20:07 |
DaemonFC | For a small fee, they let you go in and dump just about anything you want there. | Mar 16 20:07 |
DaemonFC | So you can imagine what gets into the soil, and then moves over and contaminates the corn. | Mar 16 20:08 |
DaemonFC | Someone complained that most of Illinois outside of Chicago is power plants and crops. And I said, "You say that like it's a bad thing. Where the hell is the power and food supposed to come from?". | Mar 16 20:09 |
DaemonFC | It's usually not economical to put utility scale power generation or crops in a heavily populated area. | Mar 16 20:09 |

DaemonFC | Then I realized that after COVID, we've got 6 Sears Towers worth of empty offices. | Mar 16 20:10 |
DaemonFC | If someone were to be smart enough to "defrag" the offices that are not going to close and convert the empty buildings to urban greenhouses, imagine all of the food they could produce. | Mar 16 20:11 |
DaemonFC | Instead we have like, entire skyscrapers now where half the offices are empty and the rest are some shitty law firms or something that exist for "everybody v. everybody" lawsuits that produce nothing. | Mar 16 20:12 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, I learned pretty fast that there's barely a difference in the quality of legal representation between a lawyer that wants $1,500 and one that wants $4,500, except the $4,500 one probably has an office in Chicago with a nice coffee machine. | Mar 16 20:13 |

DaemonFC | The men in skirts go into the one they know a Christian will refuse to make a cake for them, and then they sue. | Mar 16 20:26 |

chicksahoy | DaemonFC: not true | Mar 16 20:27 |
chicksahoy | you're being transphobic | Mar 16 20:27 |
bnchs | also there's some problem | Mar 16 20:27 |
DaemonFC | In Illinois, two gay men went to a bed and breakfast and demanded to have their wedding reception there. | Mar 16 20:27 |
bnchs | have you ever met a transgender person | Mar 16 20:27 |
bnchs | that sued a place simply because they mispronounced | Mar 16 20:27 |

bnchs | "pronoun" | Mar 16 20:27 |
bnchs | mis pronoun | Mar 16 20:28 |
DaemonFC | When they were told no, they filed a discrimination complaint and walked away with almost $90,000 the state took from the business owner. | Mar 16 20:28 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, ok | Mar 16 20:28 |
DaemonFC | There was obviously nowhere else in the state to have a wedding reception... | Mar 16 20:28 |
DaemonFC | It's sleazy is what it is. | Mar 16 20:28 |
chicksahoy | bnchs: i dont sue over misgendering, i usually just correct them | Mar 16 20:28 |
chicksahoy | if they refuse after being corrected, thats grounds for a lawsuit | Mar 16 20:28 |
bnchs | yeah well | Mar 16 20:28 |
DaemonFC | "I reserve the right to refuse your business for any reason." should be the law of the land. | Mar 16 20:28 |
DaemonFC | And I say that as a gay man. | Mar 16 20:28 |
DaemonFC | And if I get turned away, so what? | Mar 16 20:28 |
chicksahoy | the ontario human rights laws are pretty clear | Mar 16 20:29 |
bnchs | it's pretty common to "misgender" | Mar 16 20:29 |
DaemonFC | You think I want to go to a doctor who hates gay people and only serves me because they're afraid of a lawsuit? | Mar 16 20:29 |

DaemonFC | I complained to the Attorney General's office, and nothing happened. | Mar 16 20:32 |
chicksahoy | im not gonna sue roy because daemonfc is transphobic | Mar 16 20:32 |
bnchs | daemonfc is racist aswell | Mar 16 20:32 |
DaemonFC | Could I sue? Maybe. Would I win? I'd have to prove they hated us for being gay, married, interracial, or him being an immigrant. | Mar 16 20:32 |
chicksahoy | lol | Mar 16 20:32 |
bnchs | just the usual | Mar 16 20:32 |
bnchs | and i don't care | Mar 16 20:32 |
chicksahoy | DaemonFC: proof is key | Mar 16 20:32 |
DaemonFC | I'm very racist. I married an immigrant that's not white. | Mar 16 20:33 |
bnchs | more like everyday you bitch about black people | Mar 16 20:33 |
DaemonFC | In fact, out of the past 5 relationships (defined by at least dating someone for a while) I've been in 1 was white. | Mar 16 20:33 |
chicksahoy | a black person could sue roy because daemonfc talks smack about them | Mar 16 20:34 |
chicksahoy | roy even keeps chat logs | Mar 16 20:34 |
bnchs | lol | Mar 16 20:34 |
DaemonFC | Out of my sex partners? I'd estimate that about maybe 30% of them were non-Hispanic white even though I spent most of my life living in a state where 92% of the population was non-Hispanic White. | Mar 16 20:34 |
DaemonFC | Those are some real good statistics for accusing me of racism. | Mar 16 20:34 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, theres something called section 230 | Mar 16 20:34 |
chicksahoy | section 230? | Mar 16 20:34 |
bnchs | "No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider." | Mar 16 20:35 |
chicksahoy | oh that doesnt apply in ontario | Mar 16 20:35 |
DaemonFC | Nobody can sue me for saying I lock my car doors when I see black teenagers coming. | Mar 16 20:35 |
DaemonFC | It's not illegal. | Mar 16 20:35 |
DaemonFC | It's not even grounds for a lawsuit. | Mar 16 20:35 |
*SomeH4x0r has quit (Quit: siren) | Mar 16 20:36 | |
chicksahoy | ill correct myself, a black person in ontario could sue | Mar 16 20:36 |
DaemonFC | Well, it is, but you'd lose immediately. | Mar 16 20:36 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, depends on which state this server is hosted in | Mar 16 20:36 |
bnchs | and whether section 230 applies | Mar 16 20:36 |
chicksahoy | that doesnt matter | Mar 16 20:36 |
bnchs | or am i wrong? | Mar 16 20:36 |
chicksahoy | if i sue in my jurisdiction (ontario) then my laws apply | Mar 16 20:36 |
chicksahoy | does Roy run this irc server? | Mar 16 20:37 |
bnchs | no it's hosted in UK i think | Mar 16 20:37 |
bnchs | yes he does | Mar 16 20:37 |
bnchs | but i think he's not the one who hosts it | Mar 16 20:37 |
chicksahoy | the irc server is available to people in ontario | Mar 16 20:37 |
bnchs | and? | Mar 16 20:37 |
chicksahoy | doesnt matter where its hosted, the tribunal doesnt care | Mar 16 20:37 |
bnchs | no thats dumb | Mar 16 20:38 |
chicksahoy | a service thats available to people in ontario has to follow these laws | Mar 16 20:38 |
bnchs | you can't drag your country's laws into a server hosted in another country | Mar 16 20:38 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, or else? | Mar 16 20:38 |
chicksahoy | buddy, i sued plenty of fish and they're american | Mar 16 20:38 |
bnchs | roy is british | Mar 16 20:38 |
bnchs | he lives in UK | Mar 16 20:39 |
chicksahoy | the lawsuit would be in ontario | Mar 16 20:39 |
chicksahoy | i dont have to file it where they live | Mar 16 20:39 |
bnchs | i dont know but that seems dumb | Mar 16 20:39 |
bnchs | as long as the server follows the country of origin's laws | Mar 16 20:39 |
DaemonFC | <chicksahoy> if i sue in my jurisdiction (ontario) then my laws apply | Mar 16 20:39 |
bnchs | there's nothing illegal | Mar 16 20:39 |
DaemonFC | You're wronge. | Mar 16 20:39 |
DaemonFC | *wrong | Mar 16 20:40 |
chicksahoy | im not wrong | Mar 16 20:40 |
DaemonFC | You'd have to sue me where I live. | Mar 16 20:40 |
bnchs | ^ | Mar 16 20:40 |
bnchs | you can't drag another state's laws into another | Mar 16 20:40 |
DaemonFC | Canadian judgments don't mean anything to me. | Mar 16 20:40 |
chicksahoy | thats for a lawsuit, but the HRTO is a tribunal | Mar 16 20:40 |
DaemonFC | Sue all you want. | Mar 16 20:40 |
bnchs | and i'm pretty sure you would be extremely lucky | Mar 16 20:40 |
DaemonFC | You can't serve a judgment from a foreign court onto me and garnish anything. | Mar 16 20:40 |
bnchs | if your case doesn't get thrown out | Mar 16 20:41 |
bnchs | heres an example | Mar 16 20:41 |
chicksahoy | i've litigated against american companies and all that matters is whether or not their service is available to people in ontario | Mar 16 20:41 |
bnchs | if you sue from zimbabwen | Mar 16 20:42 |
bnchs | to america | Mar 16 20:42 |
bnchs | does zimbabwen laws apply? | Mar 16 20:42 |
bnchs | does their shitty laws apply to the case | Mar 16 20:42 |
bnchs | and will the company go bankrupt in fact | Mar 16 20:42 |
DaemonFC | I don't have any assets in Ontario. | Mar 16 20:42 |
chicksahoy | it depends on whether or not zimbabwe has laws that don't care about jurisdiction | Mar 16 20:42 |
chicksahoy | ill agree on one thing, collecting a judgement against an american would be hard | Mar 16 20:43 |
DaemonFC | No Illinois court is going to enforce a judgment from an Ontario court on an Illinois resident. | Mar 16 20:43 |
bnchs | then how about this | Mar 16 20:43 |
bnchs | roy k-lines everyone from ontario | Mar 16 20:43 |
bnchs | no lawsuit | Mar 16 20:44 |
chicksahoy | fair enough, he could do that | Mar 16 20:44 |
chicksahoy | might be a good idea | Mar 16 20:44 |
DaemonFC | Even if you're in the US and suing someone else in the US, you have to sue them in their jurisdiction, usually, unless it's a federal lawsuit. | Mar 16 20:44 |
bnchs | but he's not gonna do that | Mar 16 20:44 |
bnchs | because he's in the UK | Mar 16 20:44 |
chicksahoy | i could get a court order to block a service in ontario tho | Mar 16 20:44 |
bnchs | and his site and this irc server is british | Mar 16 20:44 |
bnchs | not american | Mar 16 20:45 |
DaemonFC | Even then, you can file to have the case removed from a federal court in their jurisdiction to yours to make the lawsuit harder for them to tend to. | Mar 16 20:45 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, nice internet freedom you guys got | Mar 16 20:45 |
chicksahoy | freedom to discriminate isn't legal | Mar 16 20:45 |
bnchs | is 4chan blocked in ontario | Mar 16 20:45 |
chicksahoy | no | Mar 16 20:45 |
bnchs | why isn't it | Mar 16 20:46 |
chicksahoy | nobody sued 4chan | Mar 16 20:46 |
bnchs | there's users discriminating against races in 4chan | Mar 16 20:46 |
chicksahoy | i could sue facebook for not doing anything about transphobic comments but it would take years and i dont care enough | Mar 16 20:46 |
bnchs | because all you gonna get | Mar 16 20:47 |
bnchs | is websites banning ontario | Mar 16 20:47 |
bnchs | and you're gonna be known as the party shitter | Mar 16 20:47 |

bnchs | yes | Mar 16 20:49 |
bnchs | but this is a irc server | Mar 16 20:49 |
bnchs | messages here don't harm you | Mar 16 20:49 |
bnchs | they're just a bunch of bytes | Mar 16 20:49 |
chicksahoy | thats why i dont sue roy, i dont care | Mar 16 20:49 |
chicksahoy | technically someone could, thats all im saying | Mar 16 20:49 |
bnchs | "equal treatment with respect to services, goods and facilities" | Mar 16 20:49 |

chicksahoy | providing an irc server is a service | Mar 16 20:51 |
bnchs | yes | Mar 16 20:51 |
chicksahoy | 9 No person shall infringe or do, directly or indirectly, anything that infringes a right under this Part. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.19, s. 9. | Mar 16 20:51 |
bnchs | but i don't k-line you because you're transgender | Mar 16 20:51 |
bnchs | theres a difference | Mar 16 20:51 |
bnchs | from being mocked | Mar 16 20:51 |
bnchs | and being klined | Mar 16 20:51 |
chicksahoy | being mocked is considered harassment under the code | Mar 16 20:52 |
bnchs | yes but does it prohibit you from services? | Mar 16 20:52 |
chicksahoy | its harassment while using the service | Mar 16 20:53 |
chicksahoy | the service provider has a duty to prevent all that | Mar 16 20:53 |
bnchs | does it prohibit you from services? | Mar 16 20:54 |
chicksahoy | no | Mar 16 20:54 |
bnchs | then how does it count | Mar 16 20:54 |
chicksahoy | because there was harassment while using the service | Mar 16 20:54 |
chicksahoy | a service provider has a duty to make sure its users dont do that | Mar 16 20:55 |
bnchs | you can say that about every website | Mar 16 20:55 |
chicksahoy | exactly, i can | Mar 16 20:55 |
bnchs | then how does the law count | Mar 16 20:55 |
chicksahoy | thats why i was able to sue plenty of fish for the content of its users | Mar 16 20:55 |
bnchs | have you only sued american companies | Mar 16 20:55 |
chicksahoy | i've sued one american company | Mar 16 20:55 |
bnchs | well this is a british server | Mar 16 20:56 |
chicksahoy | also, its not for a lot of money | Mar 16 20:56 |
bnchs | again | Mar 16 20:56 |
chicksahoy | most of the time you only get a judgement for $5000 | Mar 16 20:56 |
bnchs | i'm pretty sure ontario laws dont apply | Mar 16 20:56 |
bnchs | in british | Mar 16 20:56 |
chicksahoy | these laws do | Mar 16 20:56 |
bnchs | can you cite a reference about that? | Mar 16 20:56 |
chicksahoy | are you legally trained? | Mar 16 20:57 |
bnchs | no | Mar 16 20:57 |
bnchs | but i'm pretty sure american laws | Mar 16 20:57 |
bnchs | don't apply in british laws | Mar 16 20:57 |
bnchs | websites outsource their servers to a country with permissive laws | Mar 16 20:58 |

chicksahoy | maybe to you | Mar 16 21:00 |
bnchs | i don't know what kind of state you guys have | Mar 16 21:00 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, ok maybe sue kiwi farms | Mar 16 21:00 |
bnchs | they discriminate against transgender and black people everyday | Mar 16 21:01 |
bnchs | and they're an american LLC | Mar 16 21:01 |
chicksahoy | im not touching kiwi farms | Mar 16 21:01 |
bnchs | kiwi farms got sued many times | Mar 16 21:02 |
bnchs | and most of the cases were dismissed because section 230 | Mar 16 21:02 |
chicksahoy | technically i could go after them but then they would have my name and their members would likely stalk me | Mar 16 21:02 |
chicksahoy | i think it would be better to approach them and ask them to make their site unavailable in ontario, canada | Mar 16 21:03 |
bnchs | yeah | Mar 16 21:04 |
bnchs | and he will likely post your email | Mar 16 21:04 |
chicksahoy | i dont want to get stalked for $5000 | Mar 16 21:04 |
bnchs | publicly | Mar 16 21:04 |
chicksahoy | i could use an anonymous email provider like protonmail | Mar 16 21:05 |
bnchs | well ok | Mar 16 21:05 |
chicksahoy | if i actually sued them they'd likely post my name and address | Mar 16 21:05 |
chicksahoy | its not worth it | Mar 16 21:05 |
chicksahoy | i see what they do to transgender people | Mar 16 21:05 |
chicksahoy | i'd probably even get my own forum there | Mar 16 21:06 |
bnchs | anyway i still like to see daemonfc bitch about black people | Mar 16 21:06 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, they'll find out every bit about you | Mar 16 21:06 |
chicksahoy | that just makes the channel look bad | Mar 16 21:06 |

chicksahoy | PIPEDA is a canadian law tho | Mar 16 21:08 |
bnchs | chicksahoy, well what i like about people being racist and shit, is that they're execrising their freedom of speech | Mar 16 21:09 |
chicksahoy | freedom of speech isn't absolute | Mar 16 21:09 |
bnchs | i don't like their opinion | Mar 16 21:09 |

bnchs | yeah well | Mar 16 21:10 |

schestowitz-TR | but that's OK, I'm not surprised there | Mar 16 21:34 |
mjg59_ | The LF is a corporate funded entity that doesn't care about community beyond what increases their ability to rake in money | Mar 16 21:35 |

chicksahoy | PDF works fine on my linux boxes | Mar 16 22:37 |
matey | its like the ntfs of document formats. sure there are readers, even writers, but its practically non-free anyway | Mar 16 22:37 |
chicksahoy | libreoffice even has export to PDF | Mar 16 22:37 |
matey | and inkscape has import | Mar 16 22:37 |
matey | but its a mess | Mar 16 22:37 |
schestowitz-TR | :/ | Mar 16 22:38 |
matey | its better than nothing | Mar 16 22:38 |
schestowitz-TR | pdf does not have much advantages | Mar 16 22:38 |
matey | it just doesnt convert well | Mar 16 22:38 |
chicksahoy | whats better than pdf? | Mar 16 22:38 |

MinceR | and adobe's software re-renders the entire page every time you scroll, and only retains the tiny sliver that was exposed by scrolling | Mar 16 22:39 |

kingoffrance | https://github.com/modula3/cm3 in here there was an old thing from dec called lectern (i dont know license) some old "digital paper" project. it was very lightweight, because-rendered. i guess i do not mind pdf itself per se (as read, dont use it for forms or anything fancy) ...but readers you can count from dos version installer fit on a floppy or two....20M download now? so it goes with everything | Mar 16 22:39 |

schestowitz-TR | yeah | Mar 16 22:43 |
schestowitz-TR | openbsd a little less | Mar 16 22:43 |
schestowitz-TR | but they too are taking microsoft money and similar funding sources | Mar 16 22:44 |
matey | openbsd is the most free, unless you can run hyperbola | Mar 16 22:44 |
matey | openbsd has taken money from a lot of people | Mar 16 22:44 |
chicksahoy | openbsd used to take DARPA money | Mar 16 22:44 |

immibis | linux drivers are a brilliant starting point for hardware support, compared to no drivers at all | Mar 16 22:47 |
matey | openbsd has reverse engineered the drivers sometimes | Mar 16 22:48 |
matey | yeah linux drivers can be reused | Mar 16 22:48 |
chicksahoy | isnt that because openbsd can't use gpl drivers because it has the bsd license? | Mar 16 22:48 |

immibis | there are several forks *in the linux development process* | Mar 16 22:48 |
immibis | every company that doesn't want to contribute upstream has a fork | Mar 16 22:48 |
matey | openbsd has a policy of avoiding gpl code | Mar 16 22:48 |
immibis | which is most of them | Mar 16 22:48 |
matey | its not complete-- they still use some, try as they might | Mar 16 22:49 |
immibis | everyone working on the kernel has a fork | Mar 16 22:49 |
matey | legally it might be on shaky ground to use gpl drivers | Mar 16 22:49 |
immibis | because? | Mar 16 22:49 |
matey | everyone working on the kernel has a fork <- this is a linuguistic argument that talks about something other than what im saying altogether | Mar 16 22:49 |
immibis | patents? | Mar 16 22:49 |
matey | linux is not forkable in the sense that openoffice was forkable. | Mar 16 22:50 |
immibis | just make the kernel GPL instead of BSD and you can use the drivers. OpenGPL | Mar 16 22:50 |

techrights-news | You won't defeat Vladolf Putler in a war if you raise a generation of imbecile, infantile adolescents who curl up into a fetal position any time they feel a little stressed or challenged | Mar 16 22:50 |

immibis | schestowitz-TR: not even a link. What is TR-news doing? That is basically just culture war propaganda | Mar 16 22:50 |
immibis | what is a fork? | Mar 16 22:51 |
matey | there are different kinds of forks, im sure | Mar 16 22:51 |
matey | i mean a fork in the sense of a project that is based on, but independent of the original. | Mar 16 22:51 |
schestowitz-TR | immibis: I don't follow... | Mar 16 22:51 |
matey | thats what libreoffice is | Mar 16 22:51 |

matey | devuan by comparison, will never be independent of debian, even though it was a goal | Mar 16 22:52 |
immibis | that is culture war | Mar 16 22:52 |
schestowitz-TR | I can give examples of culture war | Mar 16 22:52 |
immibis | the culture war implication is that a generation *is* being raised that way | Mar 16 22:53 |
schestowitz-TR | it's only culture war for people who fall into the dualo-wing spiel | Mar 16 22:53 |
matey | matey: I worked on an embedded linux product, and we just took whatever linux did at that point, and didn't care too much about keeping it up-to-date <- immibis, that might be an example of a fork that refutes my claim then. | Mar 16 22:53 |

matey | earing on the argument | Mar 16 22:55 |
schestowitz-TR | I don't see anything violent mentioned | Mar 16 22:55 |
matey | your other claim is more relevant | Mar 16 22:55 |
schestowitz-TR | as if, the very mention of a war is in itself going to shock people | Mar 16 22:55 |

*psydroid9 has quit (connection closed) | Mar 16 23:16 | |
schestowitz-TR | you need a lot of energy just to inflate the tires | Mar 16 23:16 |
DaemonFC | So you pay extra, per tire (plus fill-ups) to fill them with something you can mostly get anyway by putting regular air in. | Mar 16 23:16 |
XRevan86 | That was 2018, good times. | Mar 16 23:16 |
schestowitz-TR | unless you do it manually, which is hard even for a bicycle, takes a lot of effort | Mar 16 23:16 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, I use a bicycle pump to keep mine up to pressure. | Mar 16 23:17 |
DaemonFC | It's not that difficult. | Mar 16 23:17 |
DaemonFC | I run mine 35 psi front and 33 psi on the rear. | Mar 16 23:17 |
schestowitz-TR | I need to get one of those large pumps, but cannot justify it | Mar 16 23:17 |
schestowitz-TR | they're like 30 pounds and you only use them like twice a year | Mar 16 23:17 |
schestowitz-TR | I used to pump at the petrol stations | Mar 16 23:18 |
schestowitz-TR | i don't know if they even make those pumps available anymore | Mar 16 23:18 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, topping off your tires isn't that difficult. | Mar 16 23:18 |
DaemonFC | If you never let them get more than 1-2 psi lower than they're supposed to be. | Mar 16 23:18 |
schestowitz-TR | I use an old plastic tiny bike pump | Mar 16 23:19 |
schestowitz-TR | I have to strike it like 100 times per tire | Mar 16 23:19 |
schestowitz-TR | and it's hard to grip | Mar 16 23:19 |

schestowitz-TR | what market? The looters' league | Mar 16 23:24 |

DaemonFC | Walmart buys more from China than cloning their business and running it themselves is worth. | Mar 16 23:32 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, but other than a brand for shelving, what is Walmart? | Mar 16 23:32 |
