[00:01] schestowitz and the corporations have many hands on levers [00:01] Ariadne and the people who would use SWATing as a mechanism to get what they want? [00:01] schestowitz so they (e.g. Twitter) can hide particular viewpoints [00:02] schestowitz Ariadne: I didn't like the first one [00:02] schestowitz nor the second one [00:02] schestowitz It makes us look as bad as them [00:02] schestowitz which I oppose [00:02] schestowitz Lange responded better [00:03] Ariadne SWATing people is attempting to use the State to intimidating people into not exercising their free speech rights [00:04] schestowitz that's gross [00:04] schestowitz I agree with you on that [00:04] schestowitz rianne found this whole thing amusing at best [00:04] schestowitz at first I thought it was parody [00:05] schestowitz Ariadne: the people I collaborate with are not him [00:05] schestowitz but people who go way way back [00:05] Ariadne you've collaborated with him before! [00:05] schestowitz and have insights deeper than most [00:05] *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving) [00:05] schestowitz Ariadne: no, I syndicates some important articles [00:05] schestowitz e.g. fsfe stuff [00:05] Ariadne that's collaboration [00:05] schestowitz those are still true and relevant [00:06] schestowitz the ones I excluded went to far [00:06] schestowitz like anazi analogies and stuff [00:06] Ariadne debian.community was literally created by pocock to harass debian participants [00:06] schestowitz he's not a leper you know.. [00:06] schestowitz the site has many unsavoury articles [00:06] schestowitz which I thus refuses to reproduce [00:06] schestowitz but many things there are factual [00:06] schestowitz so it's a mix and match thing [00:06] Ariadne how do you know? [00:07] Ariadne the majority of debian.community is hearsay at best [00:07] schestowitz you can tell by salient points [00:07] schestowitz what you know already etc. [00:07] Ariadne that's confirmation bias [00:07] *_inky (~inky@141.136.78.128) has joined #techrights [00:08] schestowitz everyone has some biases [00:08] schestowitz you do too [00:08] schestowitz and so do I [00:09] *lockeanarchist_ is now known as lockeanarchist [00:09] *lockeanarchist has quit (Changing host) [00:09] *lockeanarchist (~lockeanar@unaffiliated/deathcrawler) has joined #techrights [00:10] Aspie96 I am confused, where did stallman say he doesn't want to be president again? [00:10] schestowitz anyway... [00:10] Ariadne schestowitz: yeah but i question the data i examine [00:11] Ariadne as a result of bias [00:11] schestowitz guilt by association is a slippery slope [00:11] Ariadne to make sure i am seeing things correctly [00:11] schestowitz like accusinf RMS of EPSTEIN [00:11] schestowitz by indirection through Minsky [00:11] Ariadne all i am saying is, why associate with pocock [00:11] schestowitz or what mjg59 did to somehow associate me with "rape" [00:11] schestowitz let's focus on the key issues [00:11] Ariadne when he is calling for SWATing [00:11] Ariadne i think swatting is a key issue [00:11] schestowitz Aspie96: email [00:12] schestowitz maybe that will change in the future [00:12] Ariadne Aspie96: it says so on fsf.org too [00:12] schestowitz Ariadne: that's him [00:12] schestowitz not me [00:12] Ariadne its your choice to syndicate his content [00:12] Ariadne you could... not [00:12] Ariadne :) [00:12] schestowitz I did not reprinting this [00:12] schestowitz and I explained why [00:12] schestowitz we need to do better than the corporations [00:12] Aspie96 +Ariadne where? [00:13] Ariadne Aspie96: on the page about the board [00:13] Ariadne you could publish something reminding the people on the pro-RMS side that swatting is bad [00:13] schestowitz no, that would highlight something bad [00:13] schestowitz would give it attention [00:13] schestowitz better to ignore it [00:14] Ariadne sometimes, you have to call out bad behavior to encourage the behavior you actually want [00:14] Aspie96 Here? https://www.fsf.org/about/staff-and-board [00:14] Aspie96 I see no such statement.

[00:31] schestowitz The Update : In the meantime some evidence has come to light which suggests that the German Federal Parliament (Bundestag) has been systematically misled about the state of the EPO's data protection framework since about 2015.\ [00:32] schestowitz There should be enough material here for another (short) series to follow on from the current one. Should be ready some time in early to mid-April. [00:32] schestowitz The finger of suspicion in this matter points at the former Vice-President of DG5 (Raimund Lutz) and his protg and crony, Christoph Ernst, who "inherited" the EPO position left vacant by Lutz after the latter's retirement at the end of 2018. [00:33] schestowitz A bit of a spoiler, I know... [00:33] schestowitz but not many people read IRC compared to the site/capsule/ipfs [00:33] schestowitz There are official documents to support these claims but they are all in German so probably need to be translated (or at least the relevant passages). Misleading a national parliament is usually considered quite a serious matter but these guys seems to be able to get away with anything. We've worked "our arses off" for it [00:33] schestowitz The GNU stuff is "small time" TV compare to this [00:34] schestowitz but we know what agenda the media has [00:34] schestowitz we know media owners [00:34] schestowitz so they raised a stink [00:34] schestowitz helped a mob [00:34] schestowitz libeled its target [00:34] schestowitz with statements like "Epstein supporter" [00:34] schestowitz and the people got all riled up [00:34] schestowitz damage done [00:34] schestowitz the media deliberately ignores EPO crimes [00:34] schestowitz but that might change one day [00:34] schestowitz when the EPO can no longer bribe publishers with impunity [00:35] schestowitz either way, the truth is in our site for those who are EPO stakeholders and want to know what's really happening [00:35] schestowitz done that since 2014 [00:36] schestowitz MinceR: if trolls emerge in IRC, we'll need to tackle the issue [00:36] schestowitz when we did the last series there was massive disruption [00:36] schestowitz this one implicates the German gov. so even "bigger fish" [00:36] schestowitz as some German political parties can leverage that to make a scandal [00:37] psydroid the bastard spawn of UNIX and Red Hat [00:37] schestowitz well, the licensing anyway [00:37] schestowitz UNIX licensing [00:37] schestowitz never mind the modularity, which is removed [00:37] schestowitz so SUN and stuff challenging AIX [00:37] schestowitz they work with Microsoft and Amazon on "CLOWN" now [00:37] schestowitz working out how to kill all rival distros [00:38] schestowitz Ariadne: Alpine included if they could [00:38] schestowitz I know IBM wants to get you lads/lasses on their side [00:38] schestowitz http://techrights.org/2021/03/18/swpats-as-weapon-against-the-community/ [00:38] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Trolling Community Developers of GNU/Linux Via Patent Trolls Part III: The Technical and Legal Burden as Weapon Against the Community | Techrights [00:38] schestowitz while IBM scatters swpats to trolls [00:38] Ariadne IBM can fuck around and find out like Canonical did [00:39] schestowitz e.g. same as Microsoft's http://techrights.org/2017/08/31/finjan-blue-and-ibm/ [00:39] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | IBM Helps a Microsoft-Connected Patent Troll Create Another Trolling Branch, Known as Finjan Blue | Techrights [00:39] schestowitz if you get some letter from trolls with threats like gag orders, you're not alone [00:39] schestowitz i hear from distros [00:39] schestowitz they try to eradicate companies [00:39] Ariadne well, if we receive such letters we will go public with them [00:39] schestowitz and now they use their GNOME 'FOundation' to campaign against copyleft [00:40] Ariadne which is probably why companies do not send us such letters [00:40] schestowitz Ariadne: excellent [00:40] schestowitz they use proxies [00:40] schestowitz like "Via" [00:40] schestowitz OIN will 'protect' you... NOT [00:40] psydroid therefore the only permanent solution is to put IBM out of business [00:40] schestowitz psydroid: maybe that's going too far [00:41] schestowitz it would destroy many distros [00:41] psydroid Sorry, Sam Palmisano, Rob Weir and others [00:41] Ariadne anyway, as fascinating as this conversation is, i'm trying to do actual work [00:41] schestowitz I spoke to some people who wanted to fork Red Hat's stuff [00:41] schestowitz as they run out of staff [00:41] schestowitz and the forks can pick up more momentum [00:41] schestowitz like openoffice vs libreoffice [00:41] schestowitz psydroid: is Rob Weir still there? [00:41] MinceR what distros would it destroy? [00:42] Ariadne the problem is that people who use Alpine do not want what IBM are selling [00:42] schestowitz MinceR: their clones [00:42] schestowitz alma, rocky... [00:42] MinceR who cares about those? [00:42] schestowitz Ariadne: yes, we get such clients too [00:42] schestowitz people who don't want to pay red hat for support [00:42] schestowitz and don't really need to [00:42] MinceR if people want systemd's values so badly, they can use windows or macos [00:42] schestowitz or flakpak [00:42] psydroid I think it would rather help many distros to become more independent again and trash the systemd stuff, as no one will be forcing it onto them [00:42] Ariadne people who use Alpine want reliable software. GNU/Linux (mostly maintained by red hat for decades) is not reliable [00:42] Ariadne i am just being blunt [00:42] schestowitz psydroid: that's the goal [00:43] Ariadne the uptime speaks for itself [00:43] schestowitz rollback a decade or so [00:43] Ariadne they added so much crap that it's all fragile [00:43] schestowitz when LF was somewhat, remotely attentive to what we were [00:43] Ariadne meanwhile alpine keeps it simple and has thoughtful design [00:43] schestowitz now LF promotes fake "trust" [00:43] schestowitz monopolies [00:43] schestowitz signing packages and sites [00:43] MinceR people who willingly adopted systemd are incapable of maintaining an OS worth using [00:43] schestowitz centralised and oppressive [00:43] Ariadne schestowitz: sigstore is misunderstood [00:43] schestowitz mjg59 did UEFI 'secure boot' for these charlatans [00:44] Ariadne they do a bad job at explaining it [00:44] Ariadne it is actually pretty great [00:44] schestowitz so the machines we buy may refuse to boot for us [00:44] schestowitz he helped this agenda [00:44] schestowitz like OOMXL boosters did 7 years earlier [00:44] schestowitz Ariadne: it'll get strictly enforced later [00:44] schestowitz like "app stores" [00:44] Ariadne the idea behind sigstore is to give FOSS developers access to the same kind of signing infrastructure that Alpine has [00:45] schestowitz or like bootloaders that won't be able to bypass 'secure' boot [00:45] Ariadne so that we can verify that the source release you published [00:45] Ariadne is something legitimate [00:45] Ariadne without having to deal with GPG keyrings [00:45] MinceR where's the catch? [00:45] schestowitz who controlssigstore? people with a site that won't work without JS? [00:45] psydroid schestowitz, he left IBM in 2018 [00:45] schestowitz what about bob sutor? [00:45] Ariadne schestowitz: you can run your own sigstore CA [00:45] schestowitz they used to help us with OpenDocuemnt [00:45] Ariadne schestowitz: and sign whatever you wish with it [00:46] Ariadne the idea is that organizations will run their own CAs ultimately [00:46] schestowitz Ariadne: if so they wish [00:46] Ariadne the LF CA is to enable proof of concept [00:46] Ariadne it is actually a good thing [00:46] schestowitz like self-signed certs [00:46] schestowitz that GOogle 'browsers' won't trust [00:46] schestowitz because let's face it, all browsers are google now [00:46] schestowitz even Firefox [00:46] Ariadne no browser trusts self-signed certificates [00:46] schestowitz Mozilla = Google ($) [00:46] Ariadne since ever [00:47] schestowitz there you go [00:47] Ariadne because that would be a bad idea [00:47] psydroid Bob Sutor still seems to be there, but I don't remember reading his blog [00:47] schestowitz so it's pointless [00:47] Ariadne it is not pointless [00:47] schestowitz it's not real security [00:47] schestowitz they impose centealisation and monopolies [00:47] Ariadne if organizations have their own CAs [00:47] Ariadne then they can get those CAs into distros [00:47] Ariadne and its easy [00:47] schestowitz another barrier to entry [00:47] Ariadne alpine will also gladly cross-sign sigstore CAs when we get our CA up later this year [00:47] Ariadne no [00:48] Ariadne nothing is stopping you from just not signing your releases [00:48] Ariadne or using signify [00:48] schestowitz setting up a web site is already hard enough [00:48] Ariadne or using GPG [00:48] schestowitz some people outsource to Google and stuff [00:48] schestowitz making gemini capsules is vastly easier [00:48] schestowitz and they keep adding more and more complexity [00:48] schestowitz sites with 20 stylesheer files!! [00:48] Ariadne ok, well anyway [00:48] schestowitz and Google fonts [00:49] schestowitz Ariadne: I like what Apine does [00:49] Ariadne as somebody who literally produces a distro for a living, sigstore is helpful to me in my efforts to secure our supply chain [00:49] schestowitz unlike Debian [00:49] schestowitz it thins things down [00:49] schestowitz like JeOS [00:49] schestowitz Just enough OS [00:49] schestowitz rPath tried too [00:49] schestowitz many did, but then came systemd and docker and stuff [00:49] Ariadne Alpine is literally a love letter to rPath originally done with Debian components [00:50] schestowitz ag [00:50] schestowitz ah [00:50] schestowitz now you ls /bin or /usr/bin and whatnot and the machine almost freezes [00:50] schestowitz too many objects for file managers to handle [00:50] Ariadne no, thats not why [00:51] schestowitz or for you to find the program/binary you look for [00:51] Ariadne its because glibc is making dbus calls to systemd-logind to find out username information [00:51] schestowitz sometimes all you want is to run a little site ^_^ [00:51] Ariadne i wish i were kidding [00:51] schestowitz no need for 4000 programs [00:51] MinceR lol [00:51] Ariadne also, where was FSF in stopping this madness ? [00:51] MinceR i'm so glad i don't run *logind [00:51] MinceR nowhere [00:51] Ariadne exactly [00:52] MinceR all i've heard from RMS was the "systemd is free software" nonsense [00:52] psydroid I have the same question [00:52] schestowitz roy@vonick:~$ ls -la /usr/bin/ | wc -l [00:52] schestowitz 2612 [00:52] MinceR all i've seen on their IRC channels was a wall of pro-systemd bullshit [00:52] schestowitz and I'm a minimalist on this box [00:52] MinceR an echo chamber [00:52] Ariadne anyway, i need to get back to working on shit [00:53] Ariadne this day was already blown with mr. swat [00:53] Ariadne whatever your opinion on RMS, swatting is lame [00:53] schestowitz ballmer = mr. sweat [00:53] MinceR lol [00:53] psydroid they could have told Red Hat and IBM to take a hike and fork all GNU projects if they wanted to bastardise them [00:53] schestowitz sweat= mr. ballmer [00:53] DaemonFC[m] Another SG-1 flaw, MinceR. [00:53] schestowitz no sweat was harming in the making of that joke [00:53] schestowitz *harmed [00:53] MinceR chances are i'll still be better off with OpenBSD [00:54] DaemonFC[m] Carter says "I can't find a pulse but I don't know if that means anything." And there's like a dozen of the same aliens standing behind her alive. [00:54] Ariadne MinceR: we're building something that is pretty great with s6 [00:54] schestowitz openbsd lacks many things unless it's some firewall [00:54] MinceR good [00:54] schestowitz +1 [00:54] Ariadne openbsd's firewall is actually not good [00:54] schestowitz which one? [00:54] Ariadne it does not scale horizontally across cores [00:54] Ariadne pf [00:54] MinceR i do want my OS to "lack many things" [00:55] schestowitz I tried a few bsd firewalls [00:55] DaemonFC[m] XP ships a firewall. Doesn't turn it on. [00:55] MinceR for example, i want it to lack systemd, *logind and gnome [00:55] Ariadne NetBSD rewrote it with npf [00:55] schestowitz inc. the ones with web interfaces [00:55] schestowitz they were buddy [00:55] Ariadne npf is pretty great [00:55] schestowitz ipfire might be better, ubuntu based too [00:55] DaemonFC[m] I lol'd. [00:55] schestowitz DaemonFC[m]: 'fire' 'wall' [00:56] schestowitz does it block the Microsoft botnet known as "Windows Update"? [00:56] schestowitz It comes with buttons to diable it [00:56] schestowitz but they have no effect! [00:56] MinceR "laser" on the "moon" [00:56] schestowitz just there to help you feel "in control" [00:57] DaemonFC[m] The XP stood for Experience. Windows Experience. Then there's the Summer of Worms immediately. [00:57] MinceR it's an experience indeed [00:57] MinceR not a desirable one though [00:57] schestowitz SP is spyware exPerience [00:58] schestowitz it was their last version that kept the monopoly [00:58] schestowitz then many people resigned [00:58] schestowitz golden age for gnu/linux [00:58] Ariadne anyway, i have actual work to be doing, i'm trying to have a working proof of concept for vulnerability tracking in alpine by weekend [00:58] schestowitz then did the novell deal to make up for vista being a trash-worthy binary [00:58] psydroid I was thinking of setting up a separate wireless router for people who come here with Windows machines, but (un)surprisingly those have almost died out among my relatives [00:58] schestowitz Ariadne: that's OK :-) no need to read everything, it's 24/7 [00:59] schestowitz I start work now until 9am [00:59] schestowitz after that we start the EPO series [00:59] schestowitz FSF is old news by now anyway ● Mar 31 [01:07] DaemonFC[m] https://wgntv.com/news/report-rep-matt-gaetz-investigated-over-possible-sexual-relationship-with-17-year-old/ [01:07] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-wgntv.com | Report: Rep.
