| Ariadne | GPLv3 section 10 has been thrown out by the US circuit court of appeals: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cand.335295/gov.uscourts.cand.335295.140.0.pdf | Feb 21 01:48 |
| Ariadne | it turns out the court was not moved by the idea that you can just delete further license restrictions not in the GPL | Feb 21 01:48 |
| Ariadne | go figure | Feb 21 01:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | what isd this cas'es context? | Feb 21 01:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | new case? | Feb 21 01:49 |
| Ariadne | Neo4J is licensed under AGPL and Commons Clause, somebody forked it and dropped Commons Clause | Feb 21 01:50 |
| Ariadne | citing GPL section 10 as allowing them to do so | Feb 21 01:50 |
| Ariadne | Neo4J sued the fork author | Feb 21 01:50 |
| Ariadne | court agreed, ruled GPL section 10 is nonsense | Feb 21 01:51 |
| schestowitz-TR | so wait | Feb 21 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's not as simple as just GPL having an invalid bit | Feb 21 01:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | but some combination as interpreted by a not-so-high court | Feb 21 01:52 |
| Ariadne | the point is the GPLv3 section 10 means a fork cannot add additional restrictions | Feb 21 01:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | Commons Clause is BS | Feb 21 01:53 |
| Ariadne | but you can’t use section 10 to remove additional restrictions imposed by the original author | Feb 21 01:53 |
| Ariadne | which is a reasonable interpretation | Feb 21 01:53 |
| Ariadne | and yes, commons clause sucks | Feb 21 01:53 |

| Ariadne | original ruling | Feb 21 01:54 |
| MinceR | does this mean that the GPLv3's measures against patent abuse/treachery are weakened? | Feb 21 01:55 |
| schestowitz | "GitLab Inc. openly discloses that the EE License makes their Enterprise Edition product "proprietary, closed source code."[11] However, the company makes the source code of the Community Edition public, as well as the repository's issue tracker, and allows users to modify the source code.[12] The dual release of the closed-source Enterprise Edition and the open-source Community Edition makes GitLab an open core company." | Feb 21 01:55 |
| schestowitz | Open Core | Feb 21 01:55 |
| schestowitz | a new term for proprietary+openwashng | Feb 21 01:55 |
| MinceR | not that new | Feb 21 01:56 |
| schestowitz | so now every company that makes proprietary software and has some "open" mportal can mislabel itself | Feb 21 01:56 |
| schestowitz | that's why we need to abolish the term "Open Source" | Feb 21 01:56 |

| DaemonFC | TIL: Mac OS is an even bigger piece of shit than I thought. Part 4872. | Feb 21 02:12 |
| DaemonFC | It dumps dot files everywhere because Apple's fancy new file system still doesn't make proper use of journaling and XATTRs. Then when you back the folders up to Google Drive, it misinterprets the dot files as copyright infringing and deletes them, making a proper restoration of the folder data impossible later on. | Feb 21 02:12 |
| DaemonFC | The idiots at the Ninth Circus court strike again. | Feb 21 02:14 |
| DaemonFC | Trump appointed a bunch to try to turn it into another right wing appeals court. | Feb 21 02:14 |
| DaemonFC | He didn't quite finish. He left four empty seats for Biden to fill. | Feb 21 02:14 |
| MinceR | lol | Feb 21 02:15 |
| DaemonFC | If the case was decided by a panel of three judges, the easiest way to respond would be to appeal for the full court to reconsider, which is hilarious, because it's also got the most judges of any federal court in the country. | Feb 21 02:15 |
| DaemonFC | And so like two dozen or so judges would have to consider this. | Feb 21 02:15 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, It's the largest appeals court in the country. | Feb 21 02:18 |
| DaemonFC | It was structured that way back when the western states were sparsely populated. | Feb 21 02:19 |
| DaemonFC | There have been efforts to split it into two appeals courts, but they always stall out. | Feb 21 02:19 |
| DaemonFC | I was wrong. If the entire court had to consider this, it would be 29 judges. | Feb 21 02:19 |
| DaemonFC | The Republicans recently (2017) tried to split the court up, put a bunch of the red states in a new "12th circuit" and then create a bunch of empty seats on the new 12th circuit for Trump to fill. | Feb 21 02:24 |
| DaemonFC | They say they were happy with the damage they did to the Supreme Court, and they are. | Feb 21 02:25 |
| DaemonFC | But they would really have loved four more years to pack the lower courts too. | Feb 21 02:26 |

| schestowitz-TR | the sad thing is | Feb 21 09:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | many bonds and mutual funds and pensions are tied to this fraud | Feb 21 09:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | so a collapse would be worse than in 2008 | Feb 21 09:26 |

| schestowitz-TR | you can hear the winds loudly blowing | Feb 21 09:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | the leak stopped | Feb 21 09:32 |

| SomeH4x0r | because fuck Firefox | Feb 21 13:57 |
| XRevan86 | bnchs: Huh? | Feb 21 13:57 |
| bnchs | when you run tor browser on a pure Xorg GNU/Linux: it will crash because of non-existant wayland functions | Feb 21 14:01 |
| bnchs | "/somepath/tor/libxul.so: undefined symbol: gdk_wayland_display_get_wl_compositor" | Feb 21 14:01 |
| bnchs | you either have to compile it with wayland | Feb 21 14:01 |
| bnchs | or make a shim library and link tor browser with it | Feb 21 14:02 |
| XRevan86 | bnchs: Undefined symbol, eh? | Feb 21 14:02 |
| bnchs | yes | Feb 21 14:02 |
| XRevan86 | bnchs: So ye patched GDK to remove everything that is related to Wayland? | Feb 21 14:03 |
| bnchs | no | Feb 21 14:03 |
| bnchs | this happens when you compile gdk without wayland | Feb 21 14:03 |
| bnchs | #ifdefs | Feb 21 14:03 |
| XRevan86 | I guess when Firefox is compiled it should check whether that's the case and #ifdef accordingly. | Feb 21 14:04 |
| MinceR | maybe it's time to explore the remaining free unixes | Feb 21 14:05 |
| XRevan86 | Strange that Gentoo users haven't complained to them. | Feb 21 14:05 |

| bnchs | i'm gonna dig in the firefox source code | Feb 21 14:05 |
| MinceR | by the ibm/deadrat drones | Feb 21 14:06 |

| schestowitz-TR | epo got rid of its maintframe yesterday | Feb 21 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | in NL | Feb 21 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | psydroid2: can you find details about it in dutch | Feb 21 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | I've just done a video about it | Feb 21 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | i also got some inside info on npm | Feb 21 17:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | but that's a separate article | Feb 21 17:14 |
| psydroid2 | it's hard to find any information about that | Feb 21 17:18 |
| psydroid2 | no one is mentioning anything about it | Feb 21 17:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | yeah | Feb 21 17:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | EPO killed the media | Feb 21 17:19 |
| psydroid2 | and I can't find anything on Gulag or Searx either | Feb 21 17:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | no actual journalisd exists anymore re patents | Feb 21 17:19 |
| psydroid2 | apparently their mainframe died | Feb 21 17:20 |
| psydroid2 | it was so old that everyone who knew anything about it has retired | Feb 21 17:20 |
| psydroid2 | according to this | Feb 21 17:20 |
| psydroid2 | http://patentblog.kluweriplaw.com/2021/04/15/will-the-epo-still-be-normal-under-the-new-normal/ | Feb 21 17:20 |

| schestowitz-TR | thanks | Feb 21 17:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | I saw it at the time | Feb 21 17:21 |
| psydroid2 | but whoever they bought or rented the mainframe from should have kept their systems up-to-date | Feb 21 17:21 |
| psydroid2 | IBM itself has been collapsing, though | Feb 21 17:22 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | IRC: #boycottnovell @ FreeNode: Tuesday, April 20, 2021 | Feb 21 17:23 | |
| schestowitz | it's even reproduced here | Feb 21 17:23 |
| psydroid2 | IBM only has $5B in revenue from mainframes anymore from what I read somewhere | Feb 21 17:25 |
| psydroid2 | so how long are they going to keep the lights on? | Feb 21 17:25 |
| MinceR | maybe MICROS~1 will buy them :> | Feb 21 17:25 |
| psydroid2 | I'm reading about "MaaS" now | Feb 21 17:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | with biden bucks? | Feb 21 17:26 |
| psydroid2 | mainframe as a service | Feb 21 17:26 |
| psydroid2 | mainframe in the cloud | Feb 21 17:27 |
| psydroid2 | mainframe in the sky | Feb 21 17:27 |
| psydroid2 | mainframe in the afterlife | Feb 21 17:27 |
| bnchs | whats the difference between cloud and some guy's random server | Feb 21 17:27 |
| psydroid2 | mainframe going to mars | Feb 21 17:27 |
| bnchs | the former sounds a bit more safer | Feb 21 17:27 |
| SomeH4x0r | is there a difference? | Feb 21 17:27 |
| bnchs | than some guy's random server | Feb 21 17:27 |
| MinceR | the former is the marketing term for the latter | Feb 21 17:27 |
| MinceR | suitspeak | Feb 21 17:27 |
| bnchs | yes | Feb 21 17:28 |
| bnchs | the cloud is simply to cover up that your data is stored on some guy's random server | Feb 21 17:28 |
| bnchs | unencrypted | Feb 21 17:28 |
| psydroid2 | misinformation meant for people whose minds are clouded | Feb 21 17:28 |
| bnchs | and i like how they encourage you to use this cloud | Feb 21 17:30 |
| bnchs | even devices that have little local storage and force you to use the "cloud" | Feb 21 17:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | clowns | Feb 21 17:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | "CIOs" | Feb 21 17:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | "CTOs" | Feb 21 17:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | people who buy "IT" brochures | Feb 21 17:33 |
| bnchs | clownud | Feb 21 17:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | and follow the instructions on them | Feb 21 17:33 |
| bnchs | there's no clowns but the people who buy steam deck to install windows on it | Feb 21 17:33 |
| psydroid2 | I've been saying that they're making local hardware you can buy expensive so you will favourably towards the cloud and choose to rent capacity over just buying local systems which then only require electricity and minor maintenance | Feb 21 17:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | bnchs: not the point | Feb 21 17:34 |
| psydroid2 | you will look favourably* | Feb 21 17:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | Microsoft just wants to put people off | Feb 21 17:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | one tactic is | Feb 21 17:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | associate steam deck with Windows | Feb 21 17:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | and then people lose interest | Feb 21 17:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | they did this before | Feb 21 17:34 |
| bnchs | valve made sure that windows won't work with steam deck | Feb 21 17:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | you put the Microsoft brand on what you want KILLED | Feb 21 17:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | i.e. not linkedin | Feb 21 17:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | or skype | Feb 21 17:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | or shithub | Feb 21 17:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | a lot of people still don't know the Microsoft ownership thing | Feb 21 17:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | same for instagram and whatsapp wrt FB | Feb 21 17:35 |
| bnchs | psydroid2, what about the shortage of hard drives | Feb 21 17:36 |
| bnchs | "shortage" | Feb 21 17:37 |
| psydroid2 | bnchs, that's something too, but I don't think that is the primary thing holding computing back, unless you are in the business of collecting huge amounts of data | Feb 21 17:38 |
| psydroid2 | Intel had wished that x86 would stay in place forever and all important processing would move to the server side located in big clouds | Feb 21 17:39 |
| bnchs | you don't own your computer | Feb 21 17:40 |
| bnchs | nor your data | Feb 21 17:40 |
| psydroid2 | but then ARM came with ARMv9 and RISC-V with multiple extensions that allow a lot of efficient processing on the client side | Feb 21 17:40 |
| psydroid2 | so plan thwarted | Feb 21 17:40 |
| psydroid2 | I'm fine with my $5 ARM chip, thank you very much | Feb 21 17:40 |
| bnchs | i hate gulagtube | Feb 21 17:40 |
| psydroid2 | I don't use gulagtube directly | Feb 21 17:40 |
| bnchs | some of the videos i used to watch now have their "copyrighted" music replaced with awful music | Feb 21 17:41 |
| psydroid2 | and I mainly use it for music | Feb 21 17:41 |
| bnchs | or partly muted | Feb 21 17:41 |
| psydroid2 | which I should download ASAP before it's gone | Feb 21 17:41 |
| SomeH4x0r | bnchs: don't trust "streaming", download and archive stuff. | Feb 21 17:41 |
| bnchs | the problem is that the "copyrighted" music is played alongside the dialogue, which means i can't hear shit now | Feb 21 17:41 |
| bnchs | SomeH4x0r, yes i wish i did do it before | Feb 21 17:42 |
| bnchs | now i have to go find some copy of the video | Feb 21 17:42 |
| bnchs | the videos got tampered without being reuploaded | Feb 21 17:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | content imperialism | Feb 21 17:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | impsosing imperial agenda on "user" "generated" "content" | Feb 21 17:44 |

| psydroid2 | is there any chance of gulagtube ever going under? | Feb 21 17:44 |
| bnchs | which means gulag can just start modifying videos while still maintaining their upload date | Feb 21 17:45 |
| bnchs | which means you can't trust the date anymore | Feb 21 17:45 |
| MinceR | at the latest, it will go under with the rest of humanity | Feb 21 17:45 |
| psydroid2 | or at least becoming just a shell while the interesting content moves elsewhere | Feb 21 17:45 |
| psydroid2 | yes | Feb 21 17:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | livelseaks went under | Feb 21 17:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | lbry in limbo | Feb 21 17:45 |
| MinceR | it's hard to move interesting content elsewhere when the alternatives are so poor | Feb 21 17:45 |
| MinceR | nothing even loads anymore from odysee | Feb 21 17:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | soapbox (microsofT) died fast | Feb 21 17:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | googlevideo died | Feb 21 17:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | around 2010 | Feb 21 17:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | they didn't even save the link | Feb 21 17:46 |
| MinceR | people refuse to use distributed alternatives | Feb 21 17:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | all these platforms are dodgy | Feb 21 17:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | here today, gone tomorrow | Feb 21 17:46 |
| MinceR | or to host on their own webservers (which probably costs too much) | Feb 21 17:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | guulag can even decide to break all gulagtube URLs to make "better ones" | Feb 21 17:46 |
| bnchs | all of the centralized video sharing alternatives i found were shady as fuck | Feb 21 17:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | like youtube.com/user/video_title | Feb 21 17:46 |
| psydroid2 | so torrents it is? | Feb 21 17:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | they still use the pre-gulag schema | Feb 21 17:46 |
| psydroid2 | everything distributed via torrents? | Feb 21 17:46 |
| bnchs | torrents are better | Feb 21 17:46 |
| MinceR | if people were willing to use torrents, yes | Feb 21 17:46 |
| MinceR | but they aren't | Feb 21 17:47 |
| bnchs | it doesn't require a server | Feb 21 17:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | iirc gulag bought it for 6 billion because googlevideo was failing (to dominate) | Feb 21 17:47 |
| bnchs | or a big server | Feb 21 17:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | distributed storage | Feb 21 17:47 |
| psydroid2 | I don't know trustworthy or dodgy tribler is | Feb 21 17:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | not distributed across DCs of gulag | Feb 21 17:47 |
| psydroid2 | or what else is available | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | but across the actual clients that are making actual use of the material | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | some TV channels used p2p | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | and not iptv | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | the idea is, lower costs | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | windows update does this too | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | which is dubious from security pov | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | and caused huge issues in the past | Feb 21 17:48 |
| bnchs | schestowitz-TR, epends on how windows update is implemented | Feb 21 17:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | but it's not good for ADVERTISING | Feb 21 17:49 |
| bnchs | if there's no checksum or microsoft signed certificate | Feb 21 17:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | so gulag will never let people do gulagtube the p2p way | Feb 21 17:49 |
| psydroid2 | I had a windows update taking about 6 hours when I first got my laptop | Feb 21 17:49 |
| psydroid2 | and that was on a superfast network | Feb 21 17:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | they don't even do deltas yet | Feb 21 17:49 |
| bnchs | this is how gulagtube censorship is gonna start | Feb 21 17:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | gnu linux did deltas over a decade ago | Feb 21 17:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | the OS is a goo | Feb 21 17:49 |
| bnchs | first they mute or replace "copyrighted" shit without your knowledge | Feb 21 17:49 |
| bnchs | with or without* | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | yeah | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | it got very bad in recent years | Feb 21 17:50 |
| psydroid2 | you can't trust what is on gulagtube anymore | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | and I lost track of the scandals | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | so many | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | so many people reacted too late | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | lost "content" | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | lost "audience" | Feb 21 17:50 |
| bnchs | then they'll most likely abuse it to mute any "misinformation" | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | lost "money" (real money actually) | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | you can only even be a slave in a gulag | Feb 21 17:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | and better not be in such ionternment conditiuons in the first place | Feb 21 17:51 |

| schestowitz | they don't flag videos sponsored by the US regime | Feb 21 17:53 |
| bnchs | or anything they want | Feb 21 17:53 |
| schestowitz | because to gulag the goal is to only amplify a certain narrative of ghegemony | Feb 21 17:54 |

| schestowitz | censorship and deranking | Feb 21 17:54 |

| DaemonFC | Part of a Facebook post: "If you do anything with crypto it creates a tax situation where it's iffy on how you're supposed to report gains and losses. If you have more than 250 transactions, you'll need to summarize, and then things get really questionable and difficult. | Feb 21 19:28 |
| DaemonFC | So it becomes hard to use crypto as a means of payment, because if you bought a sandwich, it creates a capital loss or gain, and that's one of your 250 transactions that you can directly report on Form 8949, so people will back away from using it as a currency, and start "holding" and waiting for it to go up. The problem is that when everyone does that, it stops being a currency and becomes a bubble. Personally, I think FIFO is the right thing | Feb 21 19:28 |
| DaemonFC | to do as far as reporting, but there are many interpretations, and the IRS keeps updating their "guidance" to be as mysterious as possible. | Feb 21 19:28 |
| DaemonFC | I can only surmise that this situation, which came about under Trump, is also designed to make American citizens too scared to go anywhere near anything other than the manipulated currency produced by the government, from which they can devalue your entire savings and use it to prop up the billionaires. | Feb 21 19:28 |
| DaemonFC | Also, guess what? The IRS is happy as long as the value of crypto goes up, in general, because it means revenue, but if and when the tide goes out and people start reporting that they lost $10,000, $20,000, $50,000 or more, and carrying forward the loss (like Trump did for 20 years after his failed casino) that's when they'll snap to it, start auditing everyone, disallowing the deductions, and leave you holding the bag on all of the losses." | Feb 21 19:28 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz, The tax situation with crypto is the most ridiculous thing about crypto. | Feb 21 19:28 |
| DaemonFC | It's designed to make crypto fail if it wouldn't already. | Feb 21 19:28 |
| DaemonFC | If you buy anything with it, you have to report that as if you sold some stock to buy whatever it is you bought. If you use cash, there is no such requirement to report Capital Gains. | Feb 21 19:29 |

| DaemonFC | The real goal is not really so much revenue, but to scare people away from crypto. | Feb 21 19:32 |
| schestowitz | conditional execution in low level | Feb 21 19:32 |
| schestowitz | binary condition | Feb 21 19:32 |
| DaemonFC | There's no outright BAN on Americans trading in crypto, but it makes it difficult for you come tax time to be really sure of yourself unless you didn't deal with very much of it last year. | Feb 21 19:32 |
| schestowitz | if else if like two conditions in a sense | Feb 21 19:32 |
| schestowitz | with two redirections | Feb 21 19:32 |
| DaemonFC | I'm sure if they can't make it fail with the revenue code, a ban comes later. | Feb 21 19:32 |
| DaemonFC | The EU is already ahead of us. First they tried to knock it over with the tax code. Now they're saying they want to ban mining to save the environment. | Feb 21 19:33 |

| schestowitz | VAT is part of the item's price already | Feb 21 19:34 |
| DaemonFC | It's kind of pointless, but you can. | Feb 21 19:34 |
| DaemonFC | A teenage babysitter is unlikely to earn $12,550 that year doing part time and working in cash. | Feb 21 19:34 |
| schestowitz | a "Facebook" 'post' that calls it 'crypto' is not worth reading | Feb 21 19:34 |
| DaemonFC | You only have to file a tax return if you earn more than the standard deduction would be. | Feb 21 19:34 |
| schestowitz | because it's BS by sematics | Feb 21 19:35 |
| DaemonFC | In fact, if you have no income, sometimes it's better not to file at all. | Feb 21 19:35 |
| DaemonFC | The IRS audits no income tax returns. | Feb 21 19:35 |
| DaemonFC | So if you're not getting any money back, and aren't required to file, you may not want to have a tax return on file that year. | Feb 21 19:36 |
| *bnchs has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Feb 21 19:36 | |
| DaemonFC | The IRS is actually more likely to audit a return with an AGI of $0 than it is anyone else. | Feb 21 19:36 |

| DaemonFC | My aunt got hurt and went on Disability, which isn't taxable in her situation. | Feb 21 19:37 |
| DaemonFC | So she went fom filing tax returns to not filing. | Feb 21 19:37 |
| DaemonFC | Six years in, the IRS sent her a letter asking why she wasn't filing tax returns. She had to write back saying "My only source of income is non-taxable Social Security benefits, and therefore I am not required to file tax returns.". | Feb 21 19:38 |

| DaemonFC | But they do follow up with people who used to file, stopped filing, and aren't in the Social Security Death Master File. | Feb 21 19:38 |
| DaemonFC | The funny thing is that the IRS must have known she was on disability. | Feb 21 19:39 |
| DaemonFC | Because Social Security sends them, and you, a 1099-SSA form each year. | Feb 21 19:40 |
| DaemonFC | And that would have been the only income on their file. | Feb 21 19:40 |
| DaemonFC | So their computer should have known not to send her a letter asking what had happened. | Feb 21 19:40 |
| DaemonFC | If there's a serious mismatch of the income on their file and what you reported, or did not report, they would have sent a CP2000 letter stating "We have information that you did not report all of your income. We are assessing you $x in additional taxes. You have 30 days to pay or reply and appeal." not "Why aren't you filing?". | Feb 21 19:41 |

| DaemonFC | If they modernized it with what people are learning now, they'd end up with a bigger problem. They'd be on the hook with contracts with Microsoft, most likely. | Feb 21 19:46 |
| DaemonFC | And it's hardly clear that Microsoft will exist in 60 years. | Feb 21 19:47 |
| DaemonFC | So at that point, Microsoft is definitely "critical infrastructure". And it would be better to just keep teaching people how to use COBOL than let that happen. | Feb 21 19:47 |

| DaemonFC | There's no profit in running grocery stores down there. | Feb 21 20:25 |

| DaemonFC | Margins on groceries are typically thin, even though food prices are expensive. | Feb 21 20:26 |
| DaemonFC | If your store is getting robbed and shoplifted from a lot, it can destroy the margin quickly, and thus the reaon for continuing to try to do business there. | Feb 21 20:26 |
| DaemonFC | Walmarts grocery margins tend to be between 5 and 15 cents per dollar, and that's largely depending on the brand. The higher margin tends to be on the lower cost store brands. | Feb 21 20:27 |

| DaemonFC | Microsoft can revoke your ability to run a GNU/Linux distribution at their own discretion if you boot Windows at any point after installing your GNU/Linux distribution. | Feb 21 20:54 |

| mib_2zmpk0 | Does Microsoft sign the Debian kernel this is a simple question | Feb 21 20:56 |
| psydroid2 | Who cares | Feb 21 20:56 |
| DaemonFC | Microsoft has a pretense of allowing people to sign things, but Microsoft can revoke anything they want. If they refuse to sign "shim" or revoke their signature, your computer just won't boot anymore. | Feb 21 20:56 |
| mib_2zmpk0 | DaemonFC> It takes about 5-7 more days to get security patches out while waiting on Microsoft to sign the kernel image. | Feb 21 20:57 |
| DaemonFC | So the only safe thing to do is pick one GNU/Linux distro and never boot anything else again, especially Windows. | Feb 21 20:57 |
| mib_2zmpk0 | Is this true | Feb 21 20:57 |
| mib_2zmpk0 | answer no it is not true | Feb 21 20:57 |
| DaemonFC | They have to submit it to Microsoft for their approval. | Feb 21 20:57 |
| mib_2zmpk0 | no they don't | Feb 21 20:57 |
| mib_2zmpk0 | it is signed in the Debian build infrastrucutre | Feb 21 20:57 |

| DaemonFC | In theory, you can control it. In fact, they tell OEMs to lock you out. | Feb 21 20:59 |
| psydroid2 | "Secure Boot" means that you need to give it the boot in a secure fashion | Feb 21 20:59 |

| Ariadne | my problem with UEFI is not the ability to enable enforced codesigning, but rather UEFI itself | Feb 21 21:07 |
| Ariadne | you can uninstall microsoft's keys from your UEFI firmware, and use your own local ones to sign kernels | Feb 21 21:08 |
| Ariadne | (also, microsoft at most just signs the bootloader) | Feb 21 21:08 |
| Ariadne | also, if microsoft revoked debian's bootloader, they would be in big trouble with, among other parties, the US Government, which run Debian derivatives on various servers | Feb 21 21:09 |
| Ariadne | this does not mean that i think microsoft having a monopoly on default UEFI trust root is a good thing, it's an absolutely fucked thing | Feb 21 21:10 |
| Ariadne | anyway, there are plenty of arguments to be made about the Microsoft UEFI Signing CA | Feb 21 21:11 |
| Ariadne | but the ones DaemonFC are making aren't winners | Feb 21 21:11 |
| MinceR | just signing the bootloader is handy for replacing the kernel, which is handy for MICROS~1 to claim/construct a reason to revoke the signature | Feb 21 21:11 |
| XFaCE | CAs are dumb. | Feb 21 21:11 |
| MinceR | PKI is dumb | Feb 21 21:11 |
| XFaCE | CA is dumber. | Feb 21 21:12 |
| MinceR | and so is the "well, if the special people signed it, it must be perfect" paradigm for IT "security" | Feb 21 21:12 |
| XFaCE | That is a very astute way of putting it | Feb 21 21:12 |
| XFaCE | I'm copying that explanation | Feb 21 21:12 |
| Ariadne | the way alpine does it is that the alpine installer uninstalls microsoft's keys | Feb 21 21:13 |
| Ariadne | and installs locally controlled on-device ones | Feb 21 21:13 |
| *AdmFubar (~mradmin@ngqaam7baxnug.irc) has joined #techrights | Feb 21 21:13 | |

| Ariadne | but we have not asked microsoft to sign our bootloader, as we do not care :) | Feb 21 21:13 |
| Ariadne | XFaCE: i mean, not really? how distros distribute kernels are kinda distro-specific | Feb 21 21:14 |

| XFaCE | So Alpine Linux has specific tools for secure boot modification that haven't been ported? | Feb 21 21:14 |
| XFaCE | to any other distro? | Feb 21 21:15 |
| XFaCE | Please elaborate on Alpine-specific | Feb 21 21:15 |
| Ariadne | i mean, the underlying tools are FOSS | Feb 21 21:15 |
| Ariadne | i'm talking about the glue that makes it so that `apk upgrade` gives you a nice fresh locally signed kernel | Feb 21 21:15 |
| XFaCE | What about locally built kernels? | Feb 21 21:15 |
| Ariadne | if you build them as APKs, then the integration still works :P | Feb 21 21:16 |
| XFaCE | The Alpine wiki even recommends custom kernels for various additional kernel security settings such as modules | Feb 21 21:16 |
| Ariadne | if you build them by hand, well, look at the scripts | Feb 21 21:16 |
| XFaCE | The APK scripts? | Feb 21 21:16 |

| Ariadne | i mean, it is not too bad | Feb 21 21:23 |
| XFaCE | Which means basically if you like any other distro you're out of luck or stuck with a corporate solution | Feb 21 21:23 |
| Ariadne | but UEFI makes everything complex | Feb 21 21:23 |
| XFaCE | well the hook script calls another script that is Alpine specific written by Jakob whatever | Feb 21 21:23 |
| XFaCE | -c "$cmdline" \ | Feb 21 21:23 |
| XFaCE | -s "$splash_image" \ | Feb 21 21:23 |
| XFaCE | -o "$tmpdir"/unsigned.efi \ | Feb 21 21:23 |
| XFaCE | "$vmlinuz" $microcode "$tmpdir"/initramfs | Feb 21 21:23 |
| Ariadne | other platforms, they just shove the hash of the kernel image in an efuse | Feb 21 21:23 |
| Ariadne | and call it a day | Feb 21 21:23 |
| XFaCE | what's an efuse? Some FUSE for the EFI partition? | Feb 21 21:24 |
| Ariadne | an efuse is a chip | Feb 21 21:24 |
| Ariadne | that contains a small amount of data | Feb 21 21:24 |
| XFaCE | So like a fuse that trips? | Feb 21 21:24 |
| XFaCE | or is it wholly unrelated to those fuses? | Feb 21 21:25 |
| Ariadne | its kinda like that | Feb 21 21:25 |
| Ariadne | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efuse | Feb 21 21:25 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Efuse - Wikipedia | Feb 21 21:25 | |
| XFaCE | "In computing, an eFuse (electronic fuse) is a microscopic fuse put into a computer chip. This technology was invented by IBM to allow for the dynamic real-time reprogramming of chips. In the abstract, computer logic is generally "etched" or "hard-wired" onto a chip and cannot be changed after the chip has finished being manufactured. By utilizing a set of eFuses, a chip manufacturer can allow for the circuits on a chip to change while it is in | Feb 21 21:25 |
| XFaCE | operation" | Feb 21 21:25 |
| Ariadne | anyway, point is | Feb 21 21:26 |
| Ariadne | other platforms | Feb 21 21:26 |
| XFaCE | OK, I guess what I'm getting to is this | Feb 21 21:26 |
| Ariadne | they just store a hash of whatever is supposed to be booting | Feb 21 21:26 |
| Ariadne | in secure world | Feb 21 21:26 |
| Ariadne | usually an efuse | Feb 21 21:26 |
| XFaCE | For other distros, is the option basically having to port all this Alpine work over? | Feb 21 21:26 |
| Ariadne | yeah | Feb 21 21:27 |
| Ariadne | if you want to do it right | Feb 21 21:27 |
| XFaCE | How would you rate say this process? https://www.funtoo.org/Secure_Boot | Feb 21 21:28 |
| -altlink_25f/#techrights-📣 Cloudflare: funtoo.org | 🙆 Alternative: https://web.archive.org/web/https://www.funtoo.org/Secure_Boot | Feb 21 21:28 | |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.funtoo.org | Secure Boot - Funtoo | Feb 21 21:28 | |
| MinceR | what happens when you upgrade the kernel? | Feb 21 21:28 |
| XFaCE | It's a kind of magic | Feb 21 21:28 |
| MinceR | bricking isn't really magic :> | Feb 21 21:28 |
| Ariadne | signing grub is an option, but it kinda defeats the point | Feb 21 21:29 |
| XFaCE | what point? | Feb 21 21:29 |
| Ariadne | the point is that you do not want an unauthorized (by you) kernel to boot on the machine | Feb 21 21:29 |
| Ariadne | so, the only way to do this sanely | Feb 21 21:29 |
| Ariadne | is to sign the kernel itself | Feb 21 21:29 |
| Ariadne | and run it directly as a UEFI application | Feb 21 21:30 |
| Ariadne | e.g. no bootloader | Feb 21 21:30 |
| XFaCE | Ok, it sounds then those Funtoo instructions are fine up until the point of mentioning GRUB | Feb 21 21:30 |
| MinceR | i prefer getting rid of the illusion that you can have IT security without physical security | Feb 21 21:30 |
| XFaCE | MinceR: go back to those case keys? | Feb 21 21:30 |
| XFaCE | :> | Feb 21 21:31 |
| Ariadne | MinceR: well, thats the point, the idea is that the signing keys (controlled by you) are physically located away from the machine, except when it is being upgraded :) | Feb 21 21:31 |
| XFaCE | physically located on what? a USB key? | Feb 21 21:31 |
| MinceR | it's not like i can change the contents of the efuse to the next hash anyway | Feb 21 21:31 |
| MinceR | right? :> | Feb 21 21:31 |
| Ariadne | yes, like a yubikey or some other FIDO device | Feb 21 21:31 |
| Ariadne | MinceR: generally speaking, not without physical access | Feb 21 21:31 |
| XFaCE | Of course for the home user such a device can become corrupted because of carelessness | Feb 21 21:32 |
| XFaCE | I guess that's why there's always backups | Feb 21 21:32 |
| Ariadne | for example in Octeon machines, you have to enroll the new hash in the u-boot console itself | Feb 21 21:32 |
| Ariadne | with the Apple M1, you have to go into system recovery mode to enroll the new hash | Feb 21 21:32 |
| Ariadne | both of which require physical access | Feb 21 21:32 |
| XFaCE | Who is the target audience here? | Feb 21 21:32 |
| Ariadne | for secure boot? | Feb 21 21:33 |
| Ariadne | mostly enterprise | Feb 21 21:33 |
| XFaCE | For Alpine's implementation of secure boot? | Feb 21 21:33 |
| Ariadne | paranoid people | Feb 21 21:33 |
| Ariadne | and... enterprise | Feb 21 21:33 |
| XFaCE | Do you think people who don't do this are careless? | Feb 21 21:34 |
| Ariadne | depends | Feb 21 21:34 |
| Ariadne | do i think that grandma not doing this is careless? no | Feb 21 21:34 |
| XFaCE | Ok, say Brodie Robertson doesn't | Feb 21 21:34 |
| Ariadne | do i think that people managing systems that are processing highly sensitive data (classified materials, personal information, credit cards, etc) not doing this are careless? absolutely | Feb 21 21:35 |
| XFaCE | I would argue that everyone's private data (aka what they store without intent to share by default) is sensitive | Feb 21 21:36 |
| immibis | schestowitz: they have no idea what the protest is about except they are all angry about covid | Feb 21 21:36 |
| Ariadne | sure, i'm not saying this isn't a best practice for those patient to do it | Feb 21 21:36 |
| XFaCE | I mean, the thinking it is less important is what lead to consumer level garbage SSDs and ECC-less ram | Feb 21 21:36 |
| immibis | there was an attempted murder in the NZ one a few hours ago, like, driving a car into a crowd of people, which is an actual terrorist attack | Feb 21 21:36 |
| Ariadne | i'm just saying that if brodie robertson does not wish to do it | Feb 21 21:36 |
| Ariadne | who cares | Feb 21 21:36 |
| psydroid2 | is there an official writeup for the way Alpine does this? | Feb 21 21:36 |
| Ariadne | psydroid2: not yet, it will be in handbook tho | Feb 21 21:37 |
| MinceR | it also led to systems that prioritize the interests of megacorporations, states and sociopaths over the interests of users and computer owners | Feb 21 21:37 |
| XFaCE | Ariadne: Every person that doesn't do it is another vulnerability in today's interconnected world | Feb 21 21:37 |
| MinceR | "you're not important enough to be worth selling a PC without hardware backdoors" | Feb 21 21:37 |
| XFaCE | It's why OpenBSD gives OpenSSH away to as many people as possible | Feb 21 21:37 |
| psydroid2 | Ariadne, that sounds good, I think it will do a lot for people to employ good practices when it comes to actual security | Feb 21 21:37 |
| XFaCE | To raise the overall security of everything | Feb 21 21:37 |
| XFaCE | <@MinceR> "you're not important enough to be worth selling a PC without hardware backdoors" | Feb 21 21:37 |
| XFaCE | exactly | Feb 21 21:38 |
| Ariadne | MinceR: i mean, the backdoor is the microsoft UEFI Signing CA (for various reasons) | Feb 21 21:38 |
| MinceR | there are so many backdoors | Feb 21 21:38 |
| XFaCE | And I find it leads to two outcomes, people who are educated to be careless and don't learn to do proper diligence | Feb 21 21:38 |
| XFaCE | Or people who want to learn but basically are bombarded with so much obfuscated crap and not enough time to absorb knowledge that the end result is being discouraged and depressed | Feb 21 21:39 |
| MinceR | there's the MICROS~1 key(s) in UEFI, there's ME/PSP, there's intel boot guard, and there's the preinstalled windows, systemd or macOS | Feb 21 21:39 |
| XFaCE | And told by "betters" that "well you don't really matter anyway so don't worry about it" | Feb 21 21:39 |
| MinceR | s,PSP,PSP/TZ/ThreadX, | Feb 21 21:39 |
| MinceR | oh, and on crApple, also the "security" chip they used to lock out real OS-es | Feb 21 21:40 |
| Ariadne | the T2 does not lock out the use of linux lol | Feb 21 21:40 |
| MinceR | at this moment it doesn't? that's great. | Feb 21 21:40 |
| Ariadne | the issue was that linux did not have drivers for the T2 chip | Feb 21 21:40 |
| Ariadne | it does now | Feb 21 21:40 |
| MinceR | the issue is always with Linux | Feb 21 21:40 |
| Ariadne | i mean, yes? | Feb 21 21:41 |
| Ariadne | new types of hardware require new drivers | Feb 21 21:41 |
| Ariadne | film at 11 | Feb 21 21:41 |
| MinceR | hw designers/manufacturers don't want your suffering to end, film at 11 | Feb 21 21:41 |
| MinceR | also, crApple and their ilk doesn't like competing in the desktop OS market | Feb 21 21:42 |
| Ariadne | though i think the T2 chip is kind of a stupid way to do it | Feb 21 21:42 |
| XFaCE | Of course those drivers are contingent on diligent reliably maintainers | Feb 21 21:42 |
| XFaCE | *s/y/e | Feb 21 21:42 |
| Ariadne | they could have just implemented a PCIe hub which blocked access to certain device endpoints | Feb 21 21:42 |
| MinceR | it's much easier to lock competitors out than spending money on hiring engineers who know what they're doing and having them develop software that's actually worth using | Feb 21 21:42 |
| MinceR | especially since people still somehow manage to claim that we have a "market economy" and a "free market" | Feb 21 21:42 |
| XFaCE | MinceR: We're very agile now. | Feb 21 21:43 |
| XFaCE | So agile. | Feb 21 21:43 |
| MinceR | lol | Feb 21 21:43 |
| Ariadne | or just hardware kill switches | Feb 21 21:43 |

| Ariadne | MinceR: anyway, the linux problem was that apple implemented their own NVMe controller, as part of the T2 SoC | Feb 21 21:44 |
| MinceR | sounds like the lenovo debacle | Feb 21 21:44 |
| XFaCE | "the" lenovo debacle? | Feb 21 21:44 |
| Ariadne | the good news is that the M1 SoC uses the same NVMe :) | Feb 21 21:45 |
| MinceR | i mean the one where they locked Linux out of certain ideapads | Feb 21 21:45 |
| Ariadne | hardware evolves | Feb 21 21:45 |
| MinceR | with a controller that allegedly did RAID with an array consisting of a single SSD | Feb 21 21:45 |
| MinceR | it certainlydoes | Feb 21 21:45 |
| MinceR | s/yd/y d/ | Feb 21 21:45 |
| XFaCE | The bad news is that it will take months yet to actually use Linux on M1, and progress can be undone with Apple cat/mouse game | Feb 21 21:45 |
| MinceR | we used to get hardware specs with our machines a long time ago | Feb 21 21:45 |
| Ariadne | do i think hardware manufacturers should work to Linux developers to get pre-release hardware in their hands? yes | Feb 21 21:45 |
| psydroid2 | so the T2 was made to work because of work done on M1? | Feb 21 21:45 |
| XFaCE | It'll basically be the hackintosh experience in reverse | Feb 21 21:45 |
| Ariadne | psydroid2: no | Feb 21 21:46 |
| MinceR | we used to have hardware we could trust | Feb 21 21:46 |
| XFaCE | MinceR: not sure about that | Feb 21 21:46 |
| XFaCE | unless you mean... a flashlight | Feb 21 21:46 |
| Ariadne | psydroid2: i mean, its kinda fuzzy | Feb 21 21:46 |
| Ariadne | psydroid2: in some ways, yes | Feb 21 21:46 |
| MinceR | now we have backdoors in backdoors on top of backdoors doing MICROS~1's, crApple's and dehomag's bidding and we get to pay for the electricity and the Internet access | Feb 21 21:46 |
| Ariadne | but in other ways, T2 enablement helped M1 enablement | Feb 21 21:46 |
| psydroid2 | I get what you're saying | Feb 21 21:46 |
| psydroid2 | they've been improving in tandem | Feb 21 21:46 |
| MinceR | XFaCE: there used to be personal computers that were too simple and stupid to betray the user | Feb 21 21:47 |
| Ariadne | many of the building blocks are the same | Feb 21 21:47 |
| XFaCE | Ah, we're talking Altair here | Feb 21 21:47 |
| XFaCE | and graphic calculators | Feb 21 21:47 |
| Ariadne | anyway, T2 chip happened because Apple wanted to yeet the Intel PCH chip | Feb 21 21:47 |
| psydroid2 | it's just that I don't have time to watch all of marcan's videos | Feb 21 21:47 |
| XFaCE | And we haven't even gotten to the T2 chip hardware maintainance, see Rossmann | Feb 21 21:48 |
| psydroid2 | or keep track of what they're discussing in the various Asahi channels | Feb 21 21:48 |

| XFaCE | <Ariadne> XFaCE: the encrypted NAND feature is not new to T2, Apple has had that since the first generation retina laptops | Feb 21 21:50 |
| XFaCE | Not sure how that relates to what I said. | Feb 21 21:50 |
| Ariadne | XFaCE: there is no "new" maintenance requirement to repair a T2 macbook | Feb 21 21:50 |
| XFaCE | Yes that is a source of issues that Rossmann has covered, but the T2 chip overall has other maintainability issues | Feb 21 21:50 |
| XFaCE | Sure I wouldn't say they are new, I would say they are obvious | Feb 21 21:51 |
| Ariadne | the issue is that apple put the NAND directly on the motherboard | Feb 21 21:51 |
| Ariadne | e.g. no more M.2 | Feb 21 21:51 |
