[00:17] schestowitz vZS1: have just checked ipfs bw [00:17] schestowitz it's average 2gb/day outward, 1gb/day inwards [00:17] schestowitz not sure if this is the typical up/down ratio [00:17] schestowitz /dev/root 12437304 6335520 5446964 54% / [00:17] schestowitz this should last a couple of years at this pace [00:25] DaemonFC[m] I seriously doubt Trump thinks he'll be around otherwise he wouldn't be doing so much stuff and in a rush to get it done before the 20th. [00:25] DaemonFC[m] But he's still saying he might be just to fuck with people. [00:26] DaemonFC[m] If the UK is going to lockdown because of this new strain it must be really bad. [00:27] DaemonFC[m] It was only a matter of time, but with spread like this it will overwhelm much faster than a vaccine could possibly get out and slow it down. [00:28] schestowitz But Pfizer says it's under control [00:28] schestowitz that it'll "adapt" [00:28] schestowitz or that it already works [00:28] schestowitz no citation [00:28] schestowitz no data [00:28] schestowitz no evidence [00:28] schestowitz "just keep buying our crap using taxpayers' money" (national debt) [00:28] schestowitz the mutation issue has long been raised [00:29] schestowitz and too little is known about the supposed vaccines, inc.

[00:43] Ariadne so how about that AT&T datacenter bombing attempt this morning [00:44] DaemonFC[m] Well, they were nice enough to have it announce it would explode and do it when few people were around. [00:44] DaemonFC[m] Kind of not what you'd expect from terrorists, to say the least. [00:45] Ariadne yes, it was a very polite bomb [00:45] schestowitz I read something about an explosion hours ago [00:45] schestowitz and they said they suspected it was deliberate [00:45] schestowitz which town was it again? [00:45] DaemonFC[m] Nashville [00:45] Ariadne of course it was deliberate [00:45] schestowitz yes, that's it [00:45] Ariadne it announced itself as a bomb [00:45] Ariadne and said to evacuate [00:46] schestowitz https://www.themorningsun.com/news/nation-world-news/police-explosion-in-nashville-believed-to-be-intentional/article_4b2df9bd-7215-5124-96e3-9ecbca99597c.html [00:46] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Police: Explosion in Nashville believed to be 'intentional' | Nation and World News | themorningsun.com [00:46] schestowitz this is the one I saw [00:46] schestowitz blocked in EU by the way [00:46] schestowitz so could not conveniently read any further [00:46] schestowitz thus don't know the details [00:46] schestowitz also blocked in EU https://www.dailyfreeman.com/news/national/police-explosion-in-nashville-may-have-been-intentional/article_ccc049a5-beab-57f7-bfee-48bfa7035741.html [00:46] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Downtown Nashville explosion knocks communications offline | National | dailyfreeman.com [00:47] Ariadne https://twitter.com/TA32556798/status/1342513650360348676 [00:47] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-@TA32556798: https://t.co/utlyRt1DIx [00:47] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-@TA32556798: https://t.co/utlyRt1DIx [00:47] Ariadne this is literally the explosion footage [00:47] Ariadne from some security camera [00:49] schestowitz Trump getting hard-on without pills....

[00:53] schestowitz Ariadne: so it was to make a point [00:53] schestowitz like IRA bombing in Manchester [00:54] schestowitz only injuries, no death, as a warning was given [00:54] CrystalMath why in Nashville, the biggest center of Trump support in the US? [00:54] schestowitz either by the planters/planners or a whistleblower [00:54] schestowitz CrystalMath: you answered your own question [00:54] schestowitz Trump support and domestic terrorism are correlated [00:55] CrystalMath but then it was maybe those who hate Trump? [00:55] schestowitz with evidence to show this over the years [00:55] schestowitz cybrNaut: name one terror attack against Trump supporters [00:55] schestowitz you cannot name one [00:55] CrystalMath idk, maybe this one? [00:55] schestowitz punch in face isn't terror [00:55] CrystalMath no i mean this bomb [00:55] CrystalMath on christmas in TN [00:55] *schestowitz prepares for funny links [00:56] schestowitz no, I mean precedents [00:56] schestowitz antifa, for example, killed nobody [00:56] schestowitz unlike the white supermacists antifa opposes [00:56] CrystalMath actually some people did die of injuries after being hurt for wearing a MAGA hat [00:56] schestowitz that's not antifa [00:56] schestowitz so trump fanatics call everything |"antifa" [00:57] schestowitz even rioters for BLM [00:57] CrystalMath did i mention antifa at all? [00:57] schestowitz the context was [00:57] CrystalMath those who hate Trump [00:57] CrystalMath but that's a lot of people [00:57] CrystalMath a LOT of people [00:57] *rianne__ has quit (Read error: No route to host) [00:57] schestowitz so someone was hit [00:57] schestowitz and hit badly [00:57] schestowitz not run over [00:57] schestowitz unlike what Trump supporters did [00:57] *rianne__ (~rianne@host81-154-173-106.range81-154.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techrights [00:57] schestowitz ran over a young lady [00:58] schestowitz and others, who were injured but not fatally [00:58] CrystalMath well, there was also a black woman who is an outspoken trump supporter and anti-abortionist, who got stabbed in the back several times [00:58] CrystalMath but she survived [00:58] schestowitz anyway, let's discard this "bomb was from anti-Trump protester" BS [00:58] CrystalMath i don't agree with her but i don't think she should be stabbed in the back [00:59] schestowitz bbl ● Dec 26 [01:00] schestowitz going to work, covering for colleague [01:00] CrystalMath i suppose it would be unprecedented, we've never seen anti-trump people use bombs [01:00] CrystalMath but it's also not impossible, as there's a first time for everything [01:02] schestowitz after he was voted out?! [01:05] Ariadne i think it was more likely some idiot who wanted to stop "5G" [01:06] DaemonFC[m] It wouldn't make sense either. [01:06] DaemonFC[m] Trump has a few weeks left.

[19:04] CrystalMath i never use HTTP/2 [19:04] CrystalMath because elinks doesn't support it :P [19:04] CrystalMath nor does lynx [19:05] CrystalMath i also sometimes use HTTP/1.0 browsers [19:05] vZS1 They've kidnapped the standards and central infrastructure [19:05] CrystalMath who cares about standards [19:06] vZS1 HTTP has been successfully kidnapped as well [19:06] CrystalMath i mean, sure, there are problems that you need to bypass [19:06] CrystalMath like cloudflare [19:06] CrystalMath cloudflare is indeed a real threat [19:06] CrystalMath but it really has nothing to do with TLS [19:06] CrystalMath as it really hijacks everything to the point that TLS is pointless [19:06] vZS1 Google went and made HTTP3 more optimised for stuff like YouTube [19:06] CrystalMath and?

[19:22] schestowitz >>> curl site_page.zip | unzip | sudo sh - [19:22] vZS1 Lmao [19:22] schestowitz forgot a dash [19:22] schestowitz totallty secure [19:22] schestowitz runme.bat [19:23] schestowitz run my butt [19:23] DaemonFC[m] I'm trying to get our immigration stuff into some sort of order so I can send it off to FedEx to be printed. [19:23] DaemonFC[m] It would be great had Maricel not ran off our attorney but it is what it is and I just have to peck around the web gathering as much data and evidence as I can hit them with at the meeting. [19:25] vZS1 Look at the name [19:26] vZS1 Hypertext Transfer Protocol [19:26] vZS1 Should just transfer hypertext [19:26] DaemonFC[m] Yeah, well, originally the idea was that ftp would handle files. [19:27] DaemonFC[m] But then Google unilaterally decided to end ftp, which was a pretty big mess, but as Mozilla stated, you could fix a lot of that by just removing support for ancient implementations that nobody would be using today. [19:27] DaemonFC[m] Like the ones from Windows for Workgroups. [19:27] vZS1 FTP is still a good protocol [19:27] vZS1 I use it still [19:28] DaemonFC[m] Well, Google can't force people to shut down their FTP servers, but if it requires specialized software to access, then most people won't be using it. [19:28] vZS1 That's a good point [19:28] DaemonFC[m] All they really need to do is remove FTP from Chrome and then not index FTP servers in Google Search and it's effectively gone. [19:28] vZS1 Pretty much [19:28] schestowitz same for rss [19:28] schestowitz before chrome arrived [19:28] schestowitz firefox made rss very popular for a whole [19:28] schestowitz *while (not anymore) [19:29] vZS1 There's still hope though [19:29] vZS1 BitTorrent and IPFS make file sharing pretty easy [19:29] schestowitz maybe the next covid 'stimulus' bill will ban those [19:29] DaemonFC[m] BitTorrent traffic is increasingly scrutinized by ISPs even if there is no copyright complaints. [19:30] vZS1 But I still prefer ftp in some cases [19:30] schestowitz "g5 does not cause covid, ipfs does," said Moscow Mitch [19:30] vZS1 FTP is an elegant protocol [19:30] DaemonFC[m] They'll at least log what you transfer and slow it down to "improve the quality of their network" for people trying to watch Netflix. [19:30] vZS1 It's a lot simpler than P2P [19:30] DaemonFC[m] Beats investing in pesky upgrades so it works well for everyone who is paying them. [19:30] scientes but http/1.1 is more efficient [19:30] DaemonFC[m] Then they can invest in bribes and dividends and bonuses. [19:30] vZS1 You can't really filter traffic when it's encrypted [19:30] scientes and also lacks annoying state machine of ftp [19:31] DaemonFC[m] No, which is why VPNs have a lot of value even on Windows. [19:31] scientes ftp is stateful which makes it disliked [19:31] DaemonFC[m] It does put a stop to your ISP being able to selectively meddle with your traffic. [19:31] vZS1 You can just get your torrent client to do "encrypted only" [19:31] DaemonFC[m] And it's the ISP level where things go hideously wrong as far as copyright alerts and stuff. [19:31] DaemonFC[m] Protocol Encryption in BitTorrent is basically useless. [19:32] DaemonFC[m] It got around some early network throttling techniques, but it only encrypts headers, not the entire stream, and it's easy to analyze and figure out what it is. [19:32] scientes I tend to use sftp [19:32] scientes as I already have it set up [19:32] schestowitz all use sftp [19:32] scientes and network file systems universally sucks [19:33] schestowitz not when you say ftp people assume over ssh [19:33] DaemonFC[m] I think the future of BitTorrent is over VPN services because without that you're not going to last long. [19:33] scientes sftp just works [19:33] DaemonFC[m] With copyright strikes and this kangaroo court they're setting up. [19:33] schestowitz i set up some ftp servers for clients [19:33] schestowitz and yes, stfp, we leave out the s [19:33] vZS1 There's no hard evidence that ISPs can filter out encrypted torrenting [19:33] vZS1 That's propaganda [19:33] scientes sftp is a totally different protocol [19:33] DaemonFC[m] Losing your internet account is small beans compared with scattershot lawsuits in front of an arbitration board. [19:34] schestowitz it's sftp + extra, no? [19:34] scientes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSH_File_Transfer_Protocol [19:34] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | SSH File Transfer Protocol - Wikipedia [19:34] DaemonFC[m] They'll just hit you with dozens or hundreds of lawsuits, all demanding $30,000 each, and then it'll be worse than what we have now. [19:34] schestowitz "SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is a protocol built SSH to transfer files securely. By using the SSH transport layer, SFTP can securely move large amounts of data over an internet connection. ... It uses the SSH authentication and cryptographic capabilities to keep files safe during the transfer process." [19:35] vZS1 All this "deep packet inspection" is bullshittery [19:35] DaemonFC[m] We're going to see a lot of people get ambushed by these and they'll have to declare bankruptcy. [19:35] scientes vZS1, it is universally implemented these days [19:35] schestowitz ah, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FTPS [19:35] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | FTPS - Wikipedia [19:35] DaemonFC[m] I implemented firewall rules back when Comcrap was using Sandvine. [19:35] schestowitz vZS1: dpi = "HEY HI!! [19:35] schestowitz 'we grep stuff' [19:36] DaemonFC[m] It was pretty clumsy. You couldn't tell which reset packets were fake or real so you just dropped all of them being sent to your bittorrent client and let it sort out the mess as the file became corrupt and needed recovering. [19:36] DaemonFC[m] It caused a lot of excess CPU usage.

[19:41] scientes so half-half sounds about left-right [19:41] schestowitz vZS1: there are many good and benign animals [19:42] schestowitz creatures that eat weed in the seafloor [19:42] schestowitz we eat them [19:42] schestowitz instead of the weed [19:42] DaemonFC[m] Bankruptcy was the nuclear option after what John and the state trumped up. But for all he knows, I was just some idiot who couldn't manage my affairs. [19:42] schestowitz lately we've watched many elephant videos [19:42] schestowitz they keep haunting my mind [19:42] DaemonFC[m] So if it comes up at immigration I'll explain it that way and if it doesn't I won't bring it up. [19:43] DaemonFC[m] It's dead and buried in the past. We're back on our feet and looking towards a much brighter future. [19:43] scientes schestowitz, eat elephants?

[19:44] scientes MinceR, you speak for the bacteria, but what about those innocent plants! [19:45] MinceR they, too, get eaten [19:45] MinceR which implies killing at least parts of them [19:45] DaemonFC[m] I was reading Wikipedia about that River Phoenix guy. They said he was a vegan, to the point where he went on a date and cried when his girlfriend ordered a crab bisque or something. [19:46] DaemonFC[m] I think that's more indicative of mental illness. [19:46] vZS1 He's just a very committed vegan [19:46] DaemonFC[m] And yes, let's watch what we eat while we do speedballs. Very woke and health conscious. [19:47] DaemonFC[m] Was.... a very committed vegan. [19:47] DaemonFC[m] Dead at 23 because of the speedballs. [19:47] vZS1 Almost everything has some sort of animal byproduct in it [19:47] MinceR i guess he found a solution to the whole problem with killing plants and bacteria [19:48] schestowitz [19:46] He's just a very committed vegan [19:48] schestowitz there is a religion for this [19:48] schestowitz Sam Harris used to mention it a lot [19:48] DaemonFC[m] Jedi Knight [19:48] vZS1 I'm sure there is [19:48] schestowitz as example of super-peaceful religion [19:48] schestowitz "janes" [19:48] schestowitz or something like that [19:48] MinceR Jainism? [19:48] DaemonFC[m] Religion is overall not peaceful.

[21:47] DaemonFC[m] He's also quite, quite wrong about nothing beating youth for creativity. Intel has a well documented history of Logan's Run hiring and firing, and what it got them was Skylake. An architecture so buggy and broken and impossible to properly manage power consumption on that it singlehandedly lost them several of their most important clients. [21:49] DaemonFC[m] It took them years to mostly dig out of that mess, and they're not the 800 pound gorilla anymore where they release bad stuff like the Pentium 4 Netburst architecture and you're just stuck using it anyway. [21:50] DaemonFC[m] That entire architecture was about jacking up clock speed as high as possible even though the execution pipeline was so inefficient that the clock rate hardly mattered anymore other than forcing OEMs to contrive heat ducts to keep the computer from crashing all the time, even with budget CPUs. ● Dec 26 [22:00] DaemonFC[m] Intel would get better results from older employees if it retained them because they would remember mistakes that were made and be less inclined to repeat them. [22:01] DaemonFC[m] I'd say their hiring practices are a big factor in their current situation where their customers are piling through the exit door and it leaves lawyers barking about how they'll sue everyone with the patents if they move to ARM and try to implement backwards compatibility. [22:01] Ariadne i think we can agree that shitty people are hired by technology companies to work on technology, FOSS or otherwise [22:01] DaemonFC[m] Would a company that made terrific products be in this predicament? Certainly not. [22:02] Ariadne anyway intel sucks for many reasons [22:02] Ariadne i look forward to x86 dying [22:02] Ariadne ARM stuff is way more open [22:02] DaemonFC[m] Microsoft management had to lean on Alex St. John to get rid of the radiation symbol and stop referring to DirectX as the "Manhattan Project", because they did both as jabs against Japanese companies and their gaming consoles. [22:03] DaemonFC[m] I mean, really it was uncalled for, referring to events that cost perhaps 200,000 people their lives as some sort of in joke. [22:04] DaemonFC[m] They've been far less sensitive than BIG BOOBIES. They've directly referenced slaughter as a war crime as a joke in their products before. [22:06] DaemonFC[m] The nuclear attacks against Japan are indefensible as warfare under international law because they violated the principle of proportionality. That is, that warring states have an obligation to directly attack military targets and to minimize civilian harm. It was Total War, which is precisely what the Geneva Conventions were supposed to outlaw. [22:08] DaemonFC[m] I don't think there was as much will for Imperial Japan to persist as revisionist history suggests in order to justify the bombings. [22:09] DaemonFC[m] Their military was more or less destroyed. A naval blockade would have eventually caused them to surrender. [22:09] DaemonFC[m] In the US Civil War, the naval blockades of the south were highly effective. [22:10] DaemonFC[m] Eventually they can't get anything in or out and there are no supplies for the war effort, the economy fails, and that's the end of that. [22:13] DaemonFC[m] Anyway, one of the more offensive parts of Alex St. John's recruiting memo was that women are all lazing about the house waiting for the husband to bring home a paycheck so they can spend it all and that all men are going to make their career choices based on orders from her. [22:13] DaemonFC[m] A healthy relationship does not have one partner screaming and barking orders at the other one, and in the case of Mandy's sister, she does do that to her husband, to the point where she ordered him to come out to our place of residence and stalk us last year. [22:14] DaemonFC[m] And you should have seen the look on his face when I came back around in my car and stared at him. [22:16] DaemonFC[m] She's big on scheming and lawbreaking and personally I think we'll be better off without her tied to any of this anyway. [22:16] DaemonFC[m] Relationship dynamics are bizarre and complex. [22:17] DaemonFC[m] I mean, really, if you're fighting about things every day then why are you even still married? [22:18] DaemonFC[m] schestowitz: I can tell you some of the lessons I've learned. One of them being I'm never signing financing documents for a car again. [22:18] DaemonFC[m] If I can't pay a cash price for one, nope, not doing it. Even if I have to ride the bus for a few months. [22:19] DaemonFC[m] I'm glad that John finally pushed me into bankruptcy, the final push anyway, when he did. [22:19] DaemonFC[m] He thought he'd just skip payments and they'd levy my bank account for a car he was driving in another state. [22:19] DaemonFC[m] Nope nope.... As soon as I filed the bankruptcy papers, he started making the payments again. [22:23] DaemonFC[m] Mom said she polled the women she worked with and more than half of them do not have joint bank accounts with their husbands and most of them don't have access into each other's phones. [22:23] DaemonFC[m] Almost no married couples in this country would make it past an immigration officer, were they not already citizens.
