[00:02] matey putin and libera are racing to see who can ban the most before being destroyed [00:03] psydruid you've been CoC-blocked [00:03] matey its only a fair fight because their self-destructive tendencies are on par with their trigger fingers [00:03] bagira ive actually never once been subject to a CoC action, believe it or not psydruid [00:03] matey /me never went to lieplanet because he thought they would pull the exact shit they finally did in 2019 [00:03] psydruid bagira, you're a better person than I am, that's why [00:04] matey i thought they would do it to someone unimporatant [00:04] matey but theyre far more ambitious [00:04] matey why have a hazard to a reasonable order of things, when you can actually use it as a weapon against a reasonable order of things [00:05] bagira oh ive only seen CoC used for political reasons, ive never once seen anybody subject to a CoC action when it was not [00:05] matey corporations like to appropriate things that other people invented [00:05] matey then monopolise them [00:05] matey code of conquest [00:05] psydruid I've got the feeling that some channel owners/admins on Libera are looking for dirt on you in order to be able swing their CoCs and ban you [00:06] bagira psydruid: oh i have no doubt [00:06] psydruid if that's your life's mission, be my guest, I should say [00:06] bagira psydruid: the funniest part is about it is they can't without doctoring logs, because all of their bullshit is completely fabricated. [00:06] earthling if libera is subverted by the same mindset as former freenode was... no need to register there [00:07] earthling yet didn't expect this to pop up in here [00:07] matey anyone who has a reasonable set of expectations for a community is preemptively banned when the coc goes into effect [00:08] earthling doesn't change anything relevant for me [00:08] matey thats because youre a delusional sociopath with a victim mentality who thinks hes the only person who can talk shit all day, and when someone else dishes it out for a change, he just whinges like a bitch to an arbitration committee that doesnt exist [00:08] bagira matey: thanks bud, luv you too [00:08] matey ask mjg if he can help you [00:08] earthling the mainstream trends of where "free software" is heading, this was on topic, the coffin nails drilled into linux kernel and gcc for example [00:09] matey bagira, you know im not saying that to you, so youre just messing with me? [00:09] earthling same with browsers [00:09] earthling then matey joined and distracted with his incitement and agitation [00:09] bagira matey: hell, i have no idea who you're talking to, i thought you were drunk [00:09] matey bagira: earthling [00:10] matey theres really only three poeple i talk shit about in here [00:10] matey one you talk shit about too, another isnt important, and the third is this guy, who uses a new handle every day or two [00:11] MinceR 22 010651 < bagira> psydruid: the funniest part is about it is they can't without doctoring logs, because all of their bullshit is completely fabricated.

[00:19] bagira oftc/debian problems aside [00:19] earthling this is my understanding of the recent scrollback: some technical peculariaties were discussed [00:20] earthling then matey joins in and instantly distracts, diverts, insults to distract [00:20] matey /me watches earthling turn into mjg-with-toothbrush-moustache [00:20] earthling so who is this person? what are his intentions? on whose payroll?

BaronHK's Rants [00:24] matey this is one of the delusions people can have, when they think everything works the way they assume it does [00:24] matey things happen out of nowhere-- with no cause-- no buildup [00:25] matey just because its been ongoing for fucking ages [00:25] bagira shit if a teacher is in it for the money, they're teaching for the wrong reasons. teachers have never been paid well. [00:25] earthling let me see the log again... join... tik tok, BAM, crap [00:25] matey but not in 12 hours, so the clock on reality just arbitrarily resets [00:25] matey youre proving my point as i speek [00:26] matey and typo like hell [00:26] matey reality doesnt reset for most people every few hours [00:26] DaemonFC "If anyone really is interested in Trevor Noah bitching (he ruined the Daily Show because hes not a comedian), Im sure that the state has also wasted my money buying his books rambling on about grievances against White people at the public library. [00:26] earthling so, what urged matey to join a channel, not knowing what was talked about before, and instantly calling for mass murder? [00:26] DaemonFC (Just make sure you leave your name there for the COVID contact tracers.)" [00:26] matey try scrolling back farther than 20 minutes ago [00:27] matey first of all, you have mjg disease [00:27] matey you take every comment seriously [00:27] earthling i got a scrollback open for 8hours [00:27] matey i got a scrollback open for 8hours <- fortunately for your point, the world did not exist 9 hours ago [00:27] DaemonFC I would say fuck him, but you'd apparently have to stand in line outside the bathroom stall at the conference. [00:27] earthling no join/part from matey, then he joins, and instantly spread fud and crap [00:27] matey second of all. you have mjg disease [00:28] DaemonFC Some things are just too gross even with a prophylactic. [00:28] earthling matey coudln't at least have known what was on topic in the last 8hours [00:28] DaemonFC Like Windows.

[00:29] matey because your problems are his fault somehow [00:29] DaemonFC "The problem of not valuing public education is easy to blame on the Republican Party because theyre definitely the dumber of the two major political parties in America, but the Democrats rely on an army of voters who are too stupid to take care of themselves and need welfare." [00:29] DaemonFC :) [00:30] DaemonFC Mandy didn't even really go to school in the Philippines, and I'd say he's more intelligent than about 90% of the people he works with at Walmart, in America, where public education is compulsory.

[00:32] matey Schweinhundes <- knows this one [00:32] DaemonFC They make you pay 5 times what the degree or certificate should cost, with interest, to prop up the Democrat patronage hires and woke idiots who hand out Trevor Noah and call themselves "professors". [00:32] matey its too bad they dont make a beer called Schweinhundes [00:32] matey i would try it just for laughs [00:33] matey it would probably taste horrible (it probably should, if theyre going to call it that) [00:33] DaemonFC One of the "professors" there got into an argument with me about calendars. He said there was no calendar before the one we use now. [00:33] DaemonFC I mean, and they made him a professor! [00:33] matey whats funny earthling [00:33] matey is it was a one-off comment [00:33] bagira DaemonFC: lol [00:33] matey a nasty one to be sure [00:33] matey the sole reason we are talking about it like 45 minutes later, is you demand answers youve already received. [00:34] matey but you demand the answers you want, not the ones that actually exist. [00:34] matey so this will go on until you get over it [00:34] DaemonFC He gets a salary. "What are we learning today!" Professor: "I don't know. Here's Trevor Noah talking about some shit that happened to black people 200 years ago. Knock yourself out!". [00:34] matey but youll blame me for derailing the conversation [00:34] matey even while it goes on without you. [00:34] bagira DaemonFC: id have dated all my papers with the julian calendar from then forward until he asks why my date is always wrong [00:34] matey and thats without even making the point that this channel has very little in the way of rails to go off of [00:35] matey due as much to you as anyone, but even without that [00:35] earthling calling for mass murder isn't something to distance onself from by diverting into an abstract ideological realm with abstract terms such as "socialist" of "zionist" [00:35] earthling hence, i want to know, why YOU, matey, called for mass murder [00:35] matey calling for mass murder isn't something to distance onself from by diverting into an abstract ideological realm with abstract terms such as "socialist" of "zionist" <- ah, here we go [00:36] matey youre starting to transition from meaningless accusations to pure nonsense again [00:36] matey welcome back [00:36] *techrights_guest|31 (~be490620@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techrights [00:36] matey obviously youve recovered from shock and now youre just grassping for a topic [00:36] bagira DaemonFC: mine was a prof that laughed off the introduction of hegelian dialectics to the student body code of conduct (i was a student senate kid), only i wasn't talking about hegelian dialectics, I brought up "categorical imperative as philosophical basis for rules of order", and he didn't know kant or hegel apparently [00:36] *hvxgr (~wl2v_usrn@freenode-ong.pov.c33bnd.IP) has joined #techrights [00:37] matey /me didnt mean to spell that with ss but now we can use that funny-looking B thing instead [00:37] matey /me knows its not a B [00:37] earthling matey: obviosly not, because something else was talked about, until you, with the scrollback available, weren't at least present [00:37] earthling then /join ... 2seconds ... the rest followed [00:37] *techrights_guest|31 has quit (Quit: Connection closed) [00:37] matey besides, its probably B anyone [00:37] matey anyway, its not "grashping" [00:37] bagira earthling: why are you so butthurt [00:38] earthling so isn't there any other channel for you matey , such as #callformassmurder in 7chan.irc something? [00:38] matey because hes kenneth mars in the producers [00:38] matey no, really... [00:38] DaemonFC Nobody gets those jobs because they're intelligent. [00:38] DaemonFC They know the state governor.

"Most respondents said they felt overworked, underpaid and under-appreciated. Only 12 percent said they were very satisfied with their jobs, down from 39 percent in 2012. More than half said they likely wouldn't advise their younger selves to pursue a career in teaching." [00:43] *earthling has quit (Quit: connection closed.) [00:43] matey its never that easy [00:43] DaemonFC The 12% who are happy are probably the Chicago Teachers Union. [00:44] bagira oh no [00:44] DaemonFC They go on strike and get whatever they want. [00:44] bagira will we ever recover from him leaving us behind? [00:44] matey yes, he will be back in a few minutes or less than a day [00:44] DaemonFC They're not like most teachers who go years without a raise and have to deal with voucher programs and such. [00:44] bagira *can* we recover? [00:44] DaemonFC The question is.....Do we want to?

[04:02] DaemonFC Maybe it was $478,000. Anyway.... [04:03] bagira yeah thats one of the reasons why i always end up declining a big 5 offer, they offer great money but want you to relocate out there, and the housing is just stupid expensive, like 5/6 of your raised income stupid [04:03] bagira and for squalor too [04:03] DaemonFC Point is, you could get a big house with a garage, 4 bedrooms, two stories, a finished basement, on 2 acres of land, in my hometown.

[04:04] DaemonFC They built the sleeper towns to get away from the crime. [04:05] bagira when you work remote its worth it to grab an outskirts town [04:05] DaemonFC They were like 99.8% white, and then they commuted into the city to work at the factories that used to be there. [04:05] DaemonFC But like, even in the 90s, when there was crime in Marion to complain of.... [04:05] DaemonFC It wasn't a bad place.

We didn't really have this "kids get shot off their bicycle" "pervert out grabbing people" stuff like there is now. [04:06] bagira yeah stuff got weird everywhere real fast [04:06] DaemonFC It's because you get the amount of crime you tolerate. [04:07] DaemonFC And Democrat judges and prosecutors are all over the place trying to get votes out of criminals now. [04:07] DaemonFC So they just cut them loose. [04:07] DaemonFC It got to be so bad that San Francisco is recalling their prosecutor for being too liberal. [04:08] DaemonFC It turns out that they liked the idea of not punishing criminals, in theory. [04:08] DaemonFC When the guy was campaigning, he didn't use the words "I'm going to dump them all back out on you.". [04:08] DaemonFC It was "racial justice" this and that, you know.

[04:09] DaemonFC Rape explode. [04:09] DaemonFC They were all back out on the street right away even if the cops did catch them.

[05:28] DaemonFC There's also almost never any consequences for the person who lies about it even if they do get found out. [05:29] DaemonFC People just disperse and act as if nothing had ever happened, and the person they complained about is still ruined. [05:30] bagira man if you are gonna highlight issues like that you have /got/ to lead with statistical backing [05:30] DaemonFC When I got ahold of police files about myself, the detective was pressuring my ex to throw in a false rape allegation. [05:30] bagira i mean you can not do that but it wont go well convincing an audience [05:30] DaemonFC When my ex wouldn't go there, the detective tried again three times, before moving on to something else. [05:31] DaemonFC So the police often pressure the person in there to complain about you, even if it was unprompted. [05:33] DaemonFC I'm not sure if it's because the police are homophobic or if it's just because they want more false allegations in case the main thing they have falls apart when they get into the courtroom. [05:33] DaemonFC Then they can say they weren't just wasting their time because "Hell, we all know he was guilty of something.". [05:33] DaemonFC So, the police pressure complainers to throw in false rape accusations. It's up there after planting drugs and guns on people. [05:34] bagira you need stats from a reliable source if you want taken seriously on that [05:35] DaemonFC I've witnessed them doing it. [05:35] DaemonFC It seems to me like they just open a case and then try to stuff as many things into it as they can. [05:35] DaemonFC So they can extract false confessions to something else or taint the jury. [05:35] DaemonFC It's how they win cases without doing the work. [05:36] bagira alot of police officers are horrible human beings, and ive seen them do horrible things too, but its not a credible position to say that its normal without some kind of study. everyone knows they extract false confessions and obscure evidence sometimes. [05:36] bagira DA offices are often worse than the PD with stuff like that [05:36] bagira but if you want to change minds [05:36] bagira which it sounds like you want to [05:36] bagira studies and stats need quoted [05:38] bagira there are 3 aspects of argument [05:38] bagira ethos, pathos, logos [05:38] bagira ethics, emotion, logic [05:38] bagira you need all three when you take a controversial opinion [05:39] DaemonFC In Chicago right now, they're vacating convictions right and left over a corrupt police detective that beat confessions out of people. [05:40] DaemonFC The CPD also ran a torture center and "black site" at Homan Square. [05:41] DaemonFC A few years ago, a Cook County judge got voted out of office and the Democratic Party was forced to disown him after the public found out it was common for the CPD to bear false confessions out of people then arrange to have the judge admit it into evidence. [05:41] DaemonFC The cops will do whatever they can to win, no matter how filthy, low down, and reprehensible it is. [05:41] DaemonFC And you'd do well to avoid them if you can. [05:41] DaemonFC Then in other cases, they don't care that crimes are happening, at all. [05:42] DaemonFC In my observation, they harass me when I'm not even doing anything and take false reports against me and run with them and try to suggest going further to the liar. [05:42] DaemonFC But when I need help, they just blow me off, even when I can point and say "THE BAD GUYS ARE RIGHT THERE!". [05:43] bagira a strong case for gun ownership [05:43] DaemonFC Don't go near the police. Stay away from a relationship with anyone who even might betray you to them or use them for revenge. [05:43] DaemonFC I mean, there's worse things than a lonely existence. [05:44] DaemonFC Let them bother someone else. Stay in your house. If you do go out, drive friendly. [05:44] DaemonFC Vacation well away from other people. [05:45] DaemonFC Have you noticed in all of those zombie shows, it's not even the zombies that are the main threat. [05:45] DaemonFC It's the survivors. [05:45] DaemonFC And the only reason why things aren't that shitty right now is that society hasn't utterly collapsed, so there are some consequences for people who actually care. [05:46] DaemonFC And that's the only thing that keeps people under control. [05:46] DaemonFC Threats. [05:46] DaemonFC The government threatens to punish them. The church threatens them with Hell. [05:46] DaemonFC Threats, threats, threats. [05:46] DaemonFC So many people don't step out of line and kill their neighbor with a machete or cheat on their income taxes, because of threats. [05:48] DaemonFC Most of the crime in our society comes from people who are too dumb to consider obvious consequences. [05:48] DaemonFC That's why I have a hard time buying it when mjg59_ accuses an intelligent and rational person of rape. [05:49] DaemonFC Rape is hardly an intellectual crime. [05:49] DaemonFC It's caveman stuff. [05:49] DaemonFC It is unlikely that Jacob Appelbaum is a rapist. It is more likely that the allegations are a frame up job. [05:50] DaemonFC If you told me that some asshole in Chicago who had an IQ of 90, a trove of handguns that had never been in the FOID system, and a string of prior offenses had chased someone down and raped them, I'd be more inclined to believe it. [05:52] DaemonFC There's two "rapist" types I've seen. [05:53] DaemonFC The big dumb ox, and the "I'm in a position where I have so much power that nobody will ever believe you, or do anything about me, and I will shatter your world if you go to the police with this." types. [05:53] DaemonFC And Jeremy Soule (Microsoft) is that last type. [05:54] britney Jacob Appelbaum is a dangerous person to the establishment [05:54] DaemonFC You noticed he found the woman in the office who was on an immigrant visa and backed her into the corner and threatened her with job loss and to be sent packing if she told anyone. [05:54] DaemonFC So I believe that Jeremy Soule is a rapist. [05:54] DaemonFC But mjg59_ never talks about the rapists and pedos at Microsoft. [05:54] DaemonFC Even when they get convicted. [05:56] DaemonFC "described Appelbaum ignoring a safeword and becoming violent" [05:56] DaemonFC I don't know why you'd get into BDSM with someone. [05:56] DaemonFC The fact that they're into BDSM would tell you they're not right. [05:57] DaemonFC Again, if indeed this ever happened.

[06:41] DaemonFC The MSNP protocol was not that complicated. Each revision was reverse engineered pretty fast. [06:42] DaemonFC Plus, it didn't have to be done right away because they left the old versions alone for a while to give their own users time to upgrade.

[19:21] schestowitz[TR2] maybe make it multi-part if it's very long [19:22] DaemonFC Yeah, that might work. [19:22] DaemonFC It ended up being more about the state of the Web getting away from us than SeaMonkey. [19:22] DaemonFC And why SeaMonkey is having a hard time dealing with it. [19:23] DaemonFC (Mozilla doesn't care about Gecko as a development platform.) [19:23] DaemonFC SeaMonkey is like the last project out there that is determined to make it work despite itself. [19:24] DaemonFC Mozilla's position is obviously very wrongheaded. They attacked and drove off other people wanting to use Gecko and make it popular and make their version of the Web platform grow and leave developers with little choice but to support it, and now Firefox is small, cut off, all alone, and shrinking. [19:25] DaemonFC There used to be many browsers using Gecko as the engine, and Mozilla didn't see that there was value in this. Microsoft certainly did with IE. They didn't care if you used IE or something like Maxthon, which opened up Trident and gave you more features. [19:26] DaemonFC I remember all of these "other browsers" being dumped on freeware sites with features that Microsoft wasn't interested in putting in IE, but they didn't work without Trident, and if you browsed around with Trident, it made Microsoft stronger. [19:27] DaemonFC That's Google's strategy with Chromium "open source project". [19:28] DaemonFC They certainly want you to use Chrome, but when you use Vivaldi, Opera, or Edge, you are boosting Google's stranglehold on the Web and making any holdouts irrelevant. The endgame is to wipe out Safari and Firefox and take over. [19:28] bagira opera is not owned by google [19:31] DaemonFC Doesn't matter. The Web Engine is the same. And all of these "other browsers" bend down, kiss the ring, and sign licensing agreements to get Widevine. [19:31] DaemonFC Which SeaMonkey does NOT support or bother the user with. [19:32] DaemonFC I've discovered that the best way to get news on SeaMonkey is to just use a Gemini Proxy for NewsWaffle and bookmark the Proxy to NewsWaffle. [19:32] DaemonFC So basically it's a WebNewsWaffle at that point. [19:33] DaemonFC It would be interesting if someone would create a Web version of the NewsWaffle that would work directly, or could run in the browser and convert news sites on your local machine by stripping them down and THEN feeding them into the browser engine as text and links. [19:33] DaemonFC That would be REALLY useful. [19:34] DaemonFC These news sites are gargantuan and the news is actually just a few KB of text as cheese in a mousetrap. They use it as bait to get you in there so you'll spring the trap and they can hit you with paywalls, ads, tracking scripts, things that your poor browser or poor computer can't process and dies from. [19:35] *psydroid2 (~psydroid@memzbmehf99re.irc) has joined #techrights [19:40] DaemonFC schestowitz I'm going to see if I can load a local proxy to turn SeaMonkey into a Gemini browser. [19:41] DaemonFC That way I don't need to keep switching between the Web and Gemini. [19:41] schestowitz[TR2] we have a proxy [19:41] schestowitz[TR2] we made it with perl [19:41] schestowitz[TR2] http://techrights.org/gemini/ [19:41] TR Bot Techrights on Gemini | Techrights [19:41] schestowitz[TR2] but we restricted it to work only in our domain [19:42] schestowitz[TR2] opera is owned by china [19:42] schestowitz[TR2] and the belly of opera is gulag [19:43] schestowitz[TR2] the engine of the rendering and all [19:43] schestowitz[TR2] which is the core stuff [19:43] DaemonFC I think that most of Opera is owned by red China now. [19:43] schestowitz[TR2] opera is just front end gui now [19:43] DaemonFC And it's also supportive of GULAG. [19:43] DaemonFC Yes! [19:43] schestowitz[TR2] same for HEDGE FUND, EDGE [19:43] DaemonFC It's a very bad idea to move from Opera 12 to Chromium Opera. [19:43] schestowitz[TR2] malicious repackasing [19:44] schestowitz[TR2] and password stealer [19:44] schestowitz[TR2] but windows tore or microsoft store won't ben it [19:44] schestowitz[TR2] for being a copyncat that steals passwords [19:44] DaemonFC If you still desire an "Internet Suite", best to move everything over to SeaMonkey. [19:44] DaemonFC It still gets security updates and can render more modern sites. [19:45] DaemonFC So Opera 12 is definitely falling apart worse by now. It must be. They abandoned it and SeaMonkey is still actively developed. [19:45] DaemonFC That means that SeaMonkey is the better choice by default. [19:47] DaemonFC I liked "old Opera". Most of the employees resigned and went to work at Vivaldi, but Vivaldi is also proprietary. The parts that differentiate it from Chrome are proprietary and obfuscated (they're visible because they're written in JavaScript, CSS, and such, but they've "compressed" them by removing all of the commenting, and then they did a simple "XOR" style obfuscation on them so you... [19:47] DaemonFC ...can't easily read what it is they're doing. [19:47] DaemonFC And it would be an infringement they could sue you for if you tried using it. [19:48] DaemonFC The irony is that the employees that went to work at Opera lament the loss of their old code, saying it was good code, and they put a lot of work into optimizing it, but they accidentally point out that they lost it because it was proprietary, what they do now is proprietary, therefore someday we'll lose Vivaldi too. [19:49] DaemonFC It's logical and it follows. So even the employees of Vivaldi admit that their current job is just a paycheck for them and a dead end for you. [19:49] DaemonFC At some indefinite point in the future. [19:51] DaemonFC Even if you "consume" the updates, Vivaldi has the troubles that all other proprietary software does. It changes in ways you may not like. It doesn't force you to grab the update, however it's a Web browser and once you stop updating it, you have unpatched security vulnerabilities that pile up, and its Web Platform is frozen in time, and that doesn't matter too much for a year or two, then... [19:51] DaemonFC ...it gets annoying, then eventually you can't use it at all. [19:51] DaemonFC You simply cannot hold out on an unpatched unsupported Web browser for very long. [19:52] *phanes (~phanes@vdaaabp6wfeza.irc) has joined #techrights [19:52] DaemonFC When proprietary operating systems become unsupported, major browser vendors stop supporting them a few years later. People still can't or don't want to stop using the proprietary operating system. [19:53] DaemonFC So they become increasingly desperate for a Web browser that still does anything at all. [19:53] DaemonFC I believe there's still a couple of really weird ones that are offshoots of Pale Moon that run on XP, but the days are numbered even for that. [19:54] DaemonFC Classilla continued supporting Mac OS 8.6 and all unsupported Classic Mac OS and PowerPC and Intel releases of Mac OS X, until last year when Cameron Kaiser gave up on it. [19:54] DaemonFC However, "support" is a word you have to use broadly with something like this. [19:54] DaemonFC If you read the documentation, it did not work WELL. [19:55] DaemonFC It blocked JavaScript by default because many sites just confused and crashed it, and he couldn't fix all of the security issues, so he decided to wall many of them off. [19:55] DaemonFC It had an extension that supported code snippets to rewrite pages to see if you could get them to work. [19:56] DaemonFC It identified as a NOKIA N60, and according to mjg59_ super genius, that made it a NOKIA N60. [19:56] DaemonFC :) [19:56] DaemonFC "To get simpler Web pages that are less likely to crash it." Okay, sure. [19:57] DaemonFC In the end, there were only three ways to browse anything on these old Macs, Classilla, Mosaic-CK, or Lynx. [19:58] DaemonFC The first two are now abandonware and were maintained by CK and fared worse every passing year, and Lynx is, well, it's Lynx. [19:59] DaemonFC The point of bloating up the Web is multi-pronged, but one reason is to make it impossible for anyone but GAFAM to put out a Web browser that works entirely as expected. ● Jul 22 [20:00] TR News Patent wars with European software patents are being promoted by the 'evil genius' Georg from the EPO http://techrights.org/2022/07/22/the-weber-software-patents-machine/ [20:00] TR Bot EPOs Georg Weber Increasing Grant Rates Close to 100% in Software Patents (for Supposed Success) | Techrights [20:00] TR News The cheap and low-grade political propaganda of Campinos has gotten rather tiresome; here he goes again for photo opportunities (or operations, PR operations) instead of tackling real issues, such as the need to comply with rulings from ILOAT (such as disabling of E-mail blocks a trivial task which should only take a few minutes) http://techrights.org/2022/07/22/ukraine-as-epo-political-fodder/ [20:00] TR Bot The Antnio Campinos Photo Ops Tour: Pretending to Support Ukraine While Sending the EPOs Jobs and Applicants Money to Belarus | Techrights [20:00] DaemonFC It's not fun.

[20:04] DaemonFC 1. Switch to Chromium. 2. Announce that they're a "research organization" (running on handouts from Microsoft and Google). 3. Continue running the "Foundation", probably with Microsoft as a "Platinum member" as the "Leading company with an intelligent cloud solution." like Debian did. [20:06] DaemonFC It seems SeaMonkey and Thunderbird are sharing some development resources since Mozilla kicked them both out. [20:07] DaemonFC I didn't even notice it, but Mozilla must have either made life impossible as a part of Mozilla Foundation or kicked SeaMonkey out, because SeaMonkey is a German entity since 2012.
