●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Tuesday, August 22, 2023 ●● ● Aug 22 [00:00] *includeals has quit (Client Quit) [00:02] DaemonFC MinceR: Mozilla is making upstream changes that are not just going to really hurt SeaMonkey but also Thunderbird. [00:02] DaemonFC Probably the worst one is trying to drop the XUL . [00:02] DaemonFC Thunderbird and SeaMonkey use it extensively. [00:02] *includeals (~includeal@a89-154-197-146.cpe.netcabo.pt) has joined #techrights [00:03] DaemonFC There's also some changes that would require giving up the SeaMonkey Modern theme, and basically the entire theme engine. The only thing that would still work is "Default". [00:04] MinceR what a surprise. [00:04] DaemonFC So the future of SeaMonkey is that it's going to probably have to cherry pick code from Pale Moon and Waterfox. [00:04] DaemonFC That or just give up and bring in all of Goanna and port the Suite on top of it. [00:05] MinceR question is, when the last halfway usable "modern" web browser is killed off, will there be anyone to try and maintain a fork on the long term [00:05] MinceR or we'll just set aside another PC full of malware just to run "modern" web applications [00:05] DaemonFC I think that Borealis Communicator is probably close to what SeaMonkey will have to be. [00:05] *includeals has quit (Client Quit) [00:05] DaemonFC One of the 10 SeaMonkey developers, Tobin, was booted out of Pale Moon. [00:05] MinceR this is the first time i hear of Borealis Communicator [00:06] DaemonFC And he's ported the Suite over to Goanna, but he says it's too unstable to use routinely. It's just an experiment. [00:06] DaemonFC The SeaMonkey developers consider Pale Moon to be untouchable. [00:06] *includeals (~includeal@a89-154-197-146.cpe.netcabo.pt) has joined #techrights [00:07] DaemonFC So right now they're picking code out of later releases of Gecko and also from Waterfox. [00:07] *includeals has quit (Client Quit) [00:09] *includeals (~includeal@a89-154-197-146.cpe.netcabo.pt) has joined #techrights [00:09] DaemonFC Mozilla is tossing them from everything. [00:09] DaemonFC The Wiki, Bugzilla, the revision control system.... [00:10] DaemonFC They don't want you to be able to use it and they hope SeaMonkey goes ahead and runs out of money and fails with all these added expenses. [00:11] DaemonFC At first, Mozilla's position was that SeaMonkey would just be a continuation of the Mozilla Suite and part of the Mozilla organization. [00:11] DaemonFC You could keep using it if you used the Suite and were happy with it. [00:12] DaemonFC Then a few years went by and Mozilla got rid of XulRunner and made Gecko a component of Firefox, and then started destroying XUL itself. [00:12] DaemonFC As part of destroying XUL, they began by just marking off a bunch of the APIs as "internal" and then setting Firefox to multi-process mode, and forcing everyone to use Chrome-style extensions. [00:13] DaemonFC This forced SeaMonkey to fork Gecko. [00:13] MinceR the "modernization" of mozilla [00:13] DaemonFC Move functionality that was an extension to "internal" so it could use the private XUL stuff. [00:13] DaemonFC Now Mozilla is throwing them off the infrastructure and telling them "good luck with that". [00:14] MinceR from "take back the web" to "our way or the highway" [00:14] DaemonFC They did this part with only about a month's warning, so now there's a mad dash to get everything over somewhere quickly before Mozilla deletes it. [00:14] DaemonFC And manage the 2.53.18 release. [00:15] DaemonFC The next thing will obviously be that we can't call it Gecko because it's a trademark of VERIZON, which licenses it to MOZILLA. [00:15] DaemonFC Mozilla doesn't own the Gecko trademark. AOL kept it and was then bought by Verizon. [00:16] DaemonFC So the trademark for Mozilla's Web engine is owned by an evil megacorporation that sells smartphones to people. [00:16] MinceR lol [00:16] DaemonFC And Netscape the incorporated company still exists. It was bought by Microsoft to be torn down for patents and then sold to Facebook. [00:17] DaemonFC Mozilla had to ask AOL for permission to rewrite the Mozilla Public License and move Mozilla's code to that license. [00:17] DaemonFC The original MPLs, 1.0 and 1.1, have a clause that gives Facebook the right to make all of the code proprietary. [00:18] DaemonFC Because it says Netscape can make proprietary versions of the code and Facebook owns Netscape [00:19] DaemonFC After Blake Ross left Mozilla after starting this idiotic Firefox browser, he landed a job at Facebook. [00:19] DaemonFC Dave Hyatt, who helped him with that, went to Apple. [00:19] DaemonFC Mozilla has always tended to be some sort of a springboard to pad a resume so you can go work for GAFAM.

A man provides for his family. [02:02] DaemonFC Gus Fring : And a man, a man provides. And he does it even when he's not appreciated, or respected, or even loved. He simply bears up and he does it. Because he's a man. [02:08] DaemonFC I like how they gave this line to Gus Fring. [02:08] DaemonFC Who runs a meth cartel. [02:09] DaemonFC The concepts of men and women and the role of a man as a protector and a provider have been destroyed by the liberal propaganda. [02:09] DaemonFC They want to destroy the traditional family roles. [02:09] DaemonFC This isn't actually an issue of some people being gay or not wanting to have kids, which is fine. [02:09] DaemonFC It's this idea that the state should take the place of a man, as a provider and a protector. [02:10] DaemonFC That a woman's only job is to get pregnant and deliver future "workers". [02:10] DaemonFC And in some sense, the government forces every man who pays taxes to "marry them". [02:10] DaemonFC It's an insult to men and it's an insult to women. [02:11] DaemonFC Women deserve better than to live in some crack den that takes Section 8 vouchers because the government has ruined people's living standard and brainwashed her into thinking she doesn't need the father in the house. [02:12] MinceR ah yes, the traditional hallowed roles where almost everyone is a slave [02:12] MinceR so valuable. [02:12] DaemonFC Men deserve better than a court system that tells women "Just run him out of the house and we'll dock his pay for kids he never sees." [02:12] MinceR like almost everything else humans ever came up with [02:13] DaemonFC MinceR: Basically, flooding the workforce with women and signing "free trade" treaties broke everyone down. [02:13] MinceR and you'll fight for it too because someone else is designated to be in an even worse position than yourself [02:13] DaemonFC You're a two job no income household now, just to get by. [02:13] MinceR back then it wasn't just to get by [02:14] DaemonFC And you'll smile about it and set off fireworks on the fourth of July. And when you do that, the police will come around. Because the government that oppresses you passed a law celebrating itself on a day and then banned you from actually celebrating it. [02:16] MinceR fun [02:16] DaemonFC MinceR: Then when someone sets off an M80 and blows their ass off doing it anyway, because laws don't actually work, the doctor at the hospital has to spend time charting everything and running unnecessary tests, so the guy doesn't spend the rest of his life living off her malpractice insurance. [02:16] DaemonFC You see how this makes sense.

[04:42] schestowitz the trains here were privatised, so prices soared too [04:42] schestowitz cheaper to travel domestically by plane than by train (some times/routes) [04:43] DaemonFC schestowitz I'm not going to spend $7 in gas driving over every pothole in town so he can work four hours and come home.

[22:16] DaemonFC So I've set my copy of the Tor Browser to the safer setting. It's not what I'd like (static content Web sites), but it's probably the best you can do and have the Web as it is work at all. [22:16] DaemonFC They should move the slider closer to the user interface so the user can dial it up and down faster, and set it to Safest if they want to run silent, run deep for a while, and not take chances on scripts and stuff on .onion sites. [22:16] DaemonFC Best practices for .onion sites are to remain accessible to users who can only look at static content. [22:16] DaemonFC The way that people typically get unmasked on Tor is partially "active content" being on in the browser, and partially that the police will set up a site that requires logging in. [22:16] DaemonFC Then the court issues a broad warrant that authorizes a "Network Investigative Technique" or a NIT, which is just fancy talk for "You are authorized to attack every user who sets up an account and attempt to plant malware on the machine."" [22:17] DaemonFC "Basically, interacting with a site like this adds you to the warrant's scope, so sites that require logging in are a big red flag that "there's a reason why"."

[23:26] DaemonFC Some of Netscape's proposals were good, technically, for the Web platform, but they threw them all in Netscape 4 without seeing if they would be adopted, and when they weren't, they quickly wrote hacks like "Take CSS Level 1 and implement crashy partial support by having the rendering engine run them as JavaScript Style Sheets.".
