schestowitz-pi2 | this is a good step | Apr 07 06:48 |

schestowitz-pi2 | the goal for TR is | Apr 07 06:49 |

schestowitz-pi2 | then, breadth (cluster)? | Apr 07 06:49 |
schestowitz-pi2 | getting coffee, biab | Apr 07 06:49 |

schestowitz-pi2 | also i want to spend less time on the egeneral/political feeds | Apr 07 06:55 |

schestowitz-pi2 | some sites are so low yield/spam that they don't make it past the threshold of qualifying for inclusion | Apr 07 07:36 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but suppose we cover digital/tech issues as principals [sic] | Apr 07 07:36 |

schestowitz-pi2 | back | Apr 07 10:48 |
schestowitz-pi2 | checked some wholesale places | Apr 07 10:48 |
schestowitz-pi2 | too large to pick | Apr 07 10:48 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and to finish | Apr 07 10:48 |
schestowitz-pi2 | they will open sunday as usual | Apr 07 10:48 |
schestowitz-pi2 | saw one garage selling luxury cars | Apr 07 10:49 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it was on the way | Apr 07 10:49 |
schestowitz-pi2 | seems like many people offloaded them within months | Apr 07 10:49 |
schestowitz-pi2 | probably lost their jobs | Apr 07 10:49 |
schestowitz-pi2 | no room for 80,000 pound cars | Apr 07 10:49 |
techrights[sec] | The car deal I missed, due to lack of cash, was during the days after Delorean | Apr 07 10:55 |
techrights[sec] | got buseted, there were two on a local dealership lot with the price down to | Apr 07 10:55 |
techrights[sec] | $5k USD. I knew it was a deal but couldn't jump at it. | Apr 07 10:55 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i still havce valid licence to drive btw | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | across the road from us for 6+ years we had a second-hand mercedes garage | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | could buy one for like 15k or lkess | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but i kept joking each repair would be like 3-5k | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | so you work several months and use up the savings just for one repair | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | for a var you barely use an hour a day | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | *car | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | speaking of missed deal, this past sunday we found a nice baseball bat | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but another guy beat us to it by maybe 30 seconds | Apr 07 10:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | could not budge in for bidding war, it would be rude | Apr 07 10:56 |
techrights[sec] | I didn't know there was space to play ball nearby you. | Apr 07 10:59 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it's for defence, not play | Apr 07 10:59 |
schestowitz-pi2 | lega, portable, safe | Apr 07 11:02 |
schestowitz-pi2 | *legal | Apr 07 11:02 |
techrights[sec] | A bat needs a lot of space to swing to be effective. I though ball peen hammers | Apr 07 11:20 |
techrights[sec] | were in vogue these days for that. | Apr 07 11:20 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it is better than arm's reach | Apr 07 11:20 |
techrights[sec] | Winding up the bat to swing leaves a big opening to get clobbered. | Apr 07 11:21 |
schestowitz-pi2 | modern tennis rackets and other sport equipment are very light and soft | Apr 07 11:22 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the wooden ones can help in some cases, shall an intruder arrive | Apr 07 11:22 |
techrights[sec] | Outdoors a bat might look more intimidating to some but there is a long lead | Apr 07 11:24 |
techrights[sec] | time to wind up and swing it effectively. A hammer is lighter and faster and | Apr 07 11:24 |
techrights[sec] | extends the reach a bit anyway with the most effective use of leverage with | Apr 07 11:24 |
techrights[sec] | regards to the weight of the head. | Apr 07 11:24 |
techrights[sec] | A wooden racquet would be a good compromise. | Apr 07 11:24 |
schestowitz-pi2 | in a 2-on-1 scenario | Apr 07 11:25 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the weaken one can use a bat and come to the rescue | Apr 07 11:25 |
schestowitz-pi2 | talking about home intruder risk here | Apr 07 11:25 |
techrights[sec] | A wooden racquet would be a good compromise. It'd get ruined in the process | Apr 07 11:28 |
techrights[sec] | but if it's not been maintained it would be in bad shape anyway by this decade | Apr 07 11:28 |
techrights[sec] | I'd still say hammer or 10" chefs' knives | Apr 07 11:28 |
techrights[sec] | butterfly-knife kata/forms would be transferable, just be sure to have developed | Apr 07 11:28 |
techrights[sec] | a reflex for *really* low stances. The geometry then works to your advantage | Apr 07 11:28 |
techrights[sec] | as far as reach goes plus there are more nerves, arteries, and structural | Apr 07 11:28 |
techrights[sec] | muscles within reach. | Apr 07 11:28 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 1. sale restriction | Apr 07 11:30 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 2. too lethal | Apr 07 11:30 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 3. can turn against you | Apr 07 11:30 |
schestowitz-pi2 | when you get death threats the idea is to have a strategy ready, just in case, or backup | Apr 07 11:30 |
techrights[sec] | Chef knives? They are over the counter and can be placed in the kitchen and | Apr 07 11:31 |
techrights[sec] | are all-around useful when preparing food. | Apr 07 11:31 |
techrights[sec] | I hope there has not be a resurgence in death threats there. | Apr 07 11:31 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the ones on sale are blunt, tip and blade | Apr 07 11:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and not by accident | Apr 07 11:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | either way, rianne wants to be able to protect against intruder | Apr 07 11:32 |

schestowitz-pi2 | either way, in case of home intruders | Apr 07 11:36 |
schestowitz-pi2 | a random vase is too imprecise | Apr 07 11:36 |
schestowitz-pi2 | portable camera also important in case police interactions ever become a tool for defence | Apr 07 11:36 |

schestowitz-pi2 | *perceived | Apr 07 11:36 |
techrights[sec] | Lame. Order a real one instead. | Apr 07 11:39 |
techrights[sec] | Ok. My suggestion is still a hammer. f = mv^2 and she presumably has speed | Apr 07 11:39 |
techrights[sec] | s/f/F/ | Apr 07 11:39 |
techrights[sec] | https://www.calculatorsoup.com/calculators/physics/kinetic.php | Apr 07 11:39 |
techrights[sec] | a 1kg hammer would be too heavy and unweildy for her, there are a range of | Apr 07 11:39 |
techrights[sec] | weights for normal ball peen hammers to choose from and they don't take a lot | Apr 07 11:39 |
techrights[sec] | of space and aren't sharp | Apr 07 11:39 |
schestowitz-pi2 | just asked her, she is across in the other "office" | Apr 07 11:40 |
schestowitz-pi2 | she says no, bat is easier | Apr 07 11:40 |
schestowitz-pi2 | in 1 on 1 scenarios, yes | Apr 07 11:40 |
schestowitz-pi2 | not backup scenario | Apr 07 11:40 |
techrights[sec] | Someone once tried to injure me with a heavy length of pipe about the length | Apr 07 11:41 |
techrights[sec] | of a bat. I endded up knocking him out totally cold and walking away. Therfe's | Apr 07 11:41 |
techrights[sec] | way too much lead time when swinging a bat at fist range | Apr 07 11:41 |
techrights[sec] | There's also the matter of precision, can she hit the right head in a two-person | Apr 07 11:41 |
techrights[sec] | scrum? | Apr 07 11:41 |
techrights[sec] | A shorter handle gives more accuracy | Apr 07 11:41 |
techrights[sec] | as it is closer to the hand and people are (usually) practiced in precise movements with short handles | Apr 07 11:41 |
schestowitz-pi2 | does not need to aim for head | Apr 07 11:44 |
schestowitz-pi2 | wooden bats are heavy and can be used for jabbing | Apr 07 11:44 |
schestowitz-pi2 | either way, it's based on a real risk model | Apr 07 11:44 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the first person has no time to reach out for things | Apr 07 11:44 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the second does | Apr 07 11:44 |
schestowitz-pi2 | shovels are not ideal | Apr 07 11:44 |
techrights[sec] | andles | Apr 07 11:46 |
techrights[sec] | Maybe a golf club? | Apr 07 11:46 |
schestowitz-pi2 | gold clubs abundant, but too light and hollow | Apr 07 11:47 |
schestowitz-pi2 | same for cricket | Apr 07 11:47 |
schestowitz-pi2 | inadequate | Apr 07 11:47 |
schestowitz-pi2 | like titanium tennis equipment | Apr 07 11:47 |

techrights[sec] | :( | Apr 07 11:50 |
techrights[sec] | Though see the calculator link above. | Apr 07 11:50 |
techrights[sec] | An entrenching tool, old-style with a wooden handle, would be better than a bat. | Apr 07 11:50 |
techrights[sec] | It could be used for gardening even. :) | Apr 07 11:50 |
techrights[sec] | scuba spear gun? | Apr 07 11:50 |
techrights[sec] | Maybe the wooden tennis racquet is the way to go? | Apr 07 11:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | mind you, the risk model was different when we lived in an apartment | Apr 07 11:51 |
schestowitz-pi2 | in 2011 there were major riots here | Apr 07 11:51 |

schestowitz-pi2 | good response: get a bat | Apr 07 12:02 |
schestowitz-pi2 | gives you distance | Apr 07 12:02 |
schestowitz-pi2 | if you have force and they have just an instrument | Apr 07 12:02 |

schestowitz-pi2 | the bat does not age | Apr 07 12:02 |

schestowitz-pi2 | the police doesn't come for at least 10 mins | Apr 07 12:02 |
schestowitz-pi2 | people like to instinctively say "police" as if 1) they come instantaneously and 2) you can phone 999 and get a | Apr 07 12:06 |
schestowitz-pi2 | van over within less than 30 seconds. in my experience (home intruder 10+ years ago) | Apr 07 12:06 |
schestowitz-pi2 | they don't come at all. 2) too slow on phone | Apr 07 12:06 |
schestowitz-pi2 | they "filter" | Apr 07 12:06 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and my non-urgent call about pension re-affirms this | Apr 07 12:06 |
schestowitz-pi2 | so tldr; you are on your own, rely on tenants, maybe close neighbours (non-closer would mean they stay out, ignore | Apr 07 12:06 |

schestowitz-pi2 | maybe phone 999... for them, not for you) | Apr 07 12:06 |

schestowitz-pi2 | 10 mins= 600 seconds | Apr 07 12:10 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 46 minutes = about 2500 seconds | Apr 07 12:10 |

schestowitz-pi2 | one takeaway from the many strips (series) | Apr 07 14:12 |

schestowitz-pi2 | i am curious as to why exactly he stepped down, i only saw some clues in reports months ago | Apr 07 14:46 |
schestowitz-pi2 | "Roth joined Human Rights Watch (HRW) in 1987 as deputy director. His initial work centered on Haiti[" | Apr 07 14:47 |
schestowitz-pi2 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Roth | Apr 07 14:47 |
schestowitz-pi2 | :Roth said that the withdrawal was because of his criticism of Israel" | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Roth | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | jews cancel a jew | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | or rather, israel cancels jew | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | for not being hardcore zionist | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | classy | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | rms #2 | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and now hrw is run by a pakistani | Apr 07 14:50 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i hope they are happy | Apr 07 14:50 |
techrights[sec] | Did he regret selling out or did he only regret getting called out over it? | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | "Hassan" reminds me of this guy: https://sverigesradio.se/artikel/3608977 | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | too bad it's not translated. In that sketch he calls up the EU information | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | help line and gets a very young woman on the line, he uses his best redneck | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | accent and asks her to help settle a bet about whether 10k german fags will | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | enter the country because of the EU. She gets more and more stressed as he | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | bends her words against her. | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | I guess that explains why HRW has been defunct for a while. | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | Anyway, there is a link from the above link to the audio and even without | Apr 07 14:53 |
techrights[sec] | the language you can get a lot from the tone of the voices. | Apr 07 14:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | at least i now understand what happened to roth | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | he was ok towards julian assangeand wikilekas | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it was mututal iirc | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i read about the harvart thing | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but lacked the context of the backlash | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | "Roth told the Guardian and Amy Goodman on Democracy Now that he believed Harvard Kennedy School dean Douglas Elme | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | ndorf had capitulated to Harvard's donors who are strong supporters of Israel." | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | does phk still write routinely | Apr 07 14:56 |
schestowitz-pi2 | or just enough to pretend he still exists and not in a staitjacket? | Apr 07 14:56 |
techrights[sec] | checking | Apr 07 14:57 |
techrights[sec] | Not since early last autumn. | Apr 07 14:57 |
schestowitz-pi2 | "In 2013, HRW accepted a $487,000 gift from Saudi billionaire Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jaber. The donation was solicite | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | d and managed by Roth. The donor had been the subject of HRW investigation up through 2012 for coercive business p | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | ractices. Roth agreed to the Saudi demand that HRW not use this donation to support LGBT rights advocacy in the Mi | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | ddle East and North Africa" | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | Billgatesism | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | ok, so they convinced phk to "do an rms" | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | in the most successfuly autocratic regimes you manage to convince people not to oppose the regime | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | or the war, c.f. putin | Apr 07 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | they "get the message" | Apr 07 14:58 |
techrights[sec] | Though there are a few things in Danish from this year: | Apr 07 14:59 |
techrights[sec] | https://www.version2.dk/blogs/poul-henning-kamp | Apr 07 14:59 |
techrights[sec] | *f-ing firefox and its messed up clipboard* | Apr 07 14:59 |
schestowitz-pi2 | less than 24 hours ago firefox clipboard management drove me nuts | Apr 07 15:01 |
schestowitz-pi2 | maybe the fault of barrier, too | Apr 07 15:01 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i am going to check what hrw published since the above statement on hassan | Apr 07 15:01 |
schestowitz-pi2 | out of curiousity | Apr 07 15:01 |
schestowitz-pi2 | ftr, despite the ksa blunder i generally trusted roth | Apr 07 15:01 |
schestowitz-pi2 | rothless hrw is barlowless eff | Apr 07 15:01 |
schestowitz-pi2 | just a name... | Apr 07 15:01 |
schestowitz-pi2 | not a single condemnation oif "bibi" for 7 days after the above statement | Apr 07 15:05 |
schestowitz-pi2 | they pass that over | Apr 07 15:05 |
schestowitz-pi2 | did not check later than this | Apr 07 15:05 |
schestowitz-pi2 | https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/03/31/bangladesh-halt-pilot-plan-return-rohingya | Apr 07 15:05 |
schestowitz-pi2 | may or may not be consistent with prior stance | Apr 07 15:05 |
schestowitz-pi2 | just trying to figure out what this thing is, the name/brand aside | Apr 07 15:05 |
schestowitz-pi2 | could be another sothern poverty law centre or CAIR | Apr 07 15:05 |
schestowitz-pi2 | working for fudamentalist with all sorts of stripes | Apr 07 15:06 |
techrights[sec] | it could be such a takeover | Apr 07 15:06 |
techrights[sec] | CAIR was always about terrorism and hostile to civilr rights and democracy | Apr 07 15:06 |
schestowitz-pi2 | to protect them from "hate" | Apr 07 15:06 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i will monitor their titles for the next few weeks | Apr 07 15:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and make judgment | Apr 07 15:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it all passed through her "desk" | Apr 07 15:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | she can veto | Apr 07 15:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | based on ideology | Apr 07 15:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | made a career off of transmigration in asia | Apr 07 15:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and seasia/aussie | Apr 07 15:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | "sex testing regulations." https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/03/31/sex-testing-rules-harm-women-athletes | Apr 07 15:09 |
schestowitz-pi2 | very niche issue | Apr 07 15:09 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 7 days ago | Apr 07 15:09 |
schestowitz-pi2 | a one in 10,000 issue | Apr 07 15:09 |
schestowitz-pi2 | https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/03/29/wnba-stars-condemn-sex-abuse-mali-players | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | this is an OK problem to bring up | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but it's not limited to basketball (imo) | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/03/29/us-texas-attack-migrants-reaches-new-extremes | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | there are legal ways to migrate | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | maybe they allude to the fire incident (39 dead) | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | iirc, it was on the mexican side | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the rest seems mostly ok/benign | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | maybe it'll focus more on women's rights | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | like eff | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | too much testo | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | need more estrogen | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | so say the politicians | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | hrw is about human rights | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | both genders | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and not about tech | Apr 07 15:15 |
techrights[sec] | there are ways to focus on women's rights without exploiting it in a way which | Apr 07 15:15 |
techrights[sec] | marginalizes the main goals of the institution. The EFF has been using it | Apr 07 15:15 |
techrights[sec] | to render itself irrelevant rather than stronger. | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | so you cannot moan they cover those issues | Apr 07 15:15 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it's safe to say roth got 'canceled' | Apr 07 15:18 |
schestowitz-pi2 | what he said, based on biased wikipedia, was not even unreasonable | Apr 07 15:18 |
schestowitz-pi2 | like rms speaking of facts without focus on emotions | Apr 07 15:18 |
schestowitz-pi2 | that's not permissible | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | now waters and pilger also | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | this 'wrongthink' mindset applies to preining | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but in the tech context | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | maybe soon they will associate crypto parties with pedos | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | iirc, uk regime did an expensive pr campaign to that effect years ago | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | "you weant privacy, what are you, a [x]???" | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | you want a stall in the wc | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | what are you doing there, building a bomb? | Apr 07 15:19 |
techrights[sec] | I forgot which one rogers or waters went off the deep end and is backing putler | Apr 07 15:19 |
techrights[sec] | I forgot which one rogers or waters went off the deep end and is backing putl | Apr 07 15:19 |
schestowitz-pi2 | stephen siegal? | Apr 07 15:19 |
techrights[sec] | er | Apr 07 15:21 |
techrights[sec] | yeah him and GΓ©rard Depardieu, he tried to speak up once and an official from | Apr 07 15:21 |
techrights[sec] | putlers regime mentioned in an open statement that they would be happy to | Apr 07 15:21 |
techrights[sec] | bring him in for a discussion to enlighten him -- a veiled threat | Apr 07 15:21 |
techrights[sec] | since then he seems to have been silent | Apr 07 15:21 |
schestowitz-pi2 | sometimes they have blackmail we are not aware of | Apr 07 15:22 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and cannot be made aware of | Apr 07 15:22 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and use it over and over again | Apr 07 15:22 |
schestowitz-pi2 | until demands are no longer met | Apr 07 15:22 |
schestowitz-pi2 | then you find out | Apr 07 15:22 |
schestowitz-pi2 | not nice to say it, but sometimes people "step down | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | two or more options: | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 1) it's a(nother) demand | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 2) it's a way to avoid further (unknown/later) demands | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | what binds those together is proactive or active coercion | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | there is no simple "fix" for this | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | this is in part why fentanylware is being banned | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | location alone (of politicians) can give beijing leverage even decades later | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | like extramarital secrets | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | double or conflicting allegiances | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but it's too late now | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | politicians wired anything but their anus to multiple "apps" | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and spilled out a lot of info | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | not shit like "what web pages I visited" | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the ISPs and the agencies have harvested that since the 90s | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but more intrinsic stuff | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | some patents exploit how cross-correlation is done | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | without or without "data brokering" | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i pay with cash, wear mask, and in recent years try to always have a hoodie on outside | Apr 07 15:29 |
techrights[sec] | like trump the komprimat | Apr 07 15:29 |
techrights[sec] | all the wrong reasons for banning fentanylware. first and foremost should be | Apr 07 15:29 |
techrights[sec] | because of the egregious harm it does to culture, it is basically cultural | Apr 07 15:29 |
techrights[sec] | genocide | Apr 07 15:29 |
techrights[sec] | against the societies it is allowed to infect | Apr 07 15:29 |
schestowitz-pi2 | we still need to come up with wiki page or similar breaking down the dangers | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i honestly don't know how to even start, coherently | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and i saw no article with a detailed breakdown of these issues | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | only one aspect at one time, at most two | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it does not help that today'ds journalism is rushed and boils down to few paragraphs and very few | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | citations/sources | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | musk did ... npr | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | musk robbed.... nytimes | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | musk... doge | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | never something truly extensive | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | that's... "expensive" | Apr 07 15:32 |
schestowitz-pi2 | beign cynical about the media now makes you "crank" | Apr 07 15:35 |
schestowitz-pi2 | because the media's owners are not the audiences but those purachasing control over the audiences | Apr 07 15:35 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the audience before the product | Apr 07 15:35 |
schestowitz-pi2 | social control media is media in the "neo" sense | Apr 07 15:35 |
schestowitz-pi2 | media as means of social sedation, mass control | Apr 07 15:35 |
schestowitz-pi2 | berating diuvergence | Apr 07 15:35 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i.e. opposite of academia | Apr 07 15:35 |

schestowitz-pi2 | propublica: selling out is bad | Apr 07 18:02 |
schestowitz-pi2 | except when we do it | Apr 07 18:02 |
schestowitz-pi2 | for the bias | Apr 07 18:02 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i suggest you read the irc log for today where i look at irs filings of eff | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | circa 3pmnot enough there for an article, but still... | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | went through 4000 headlines this afternoon, almost done now | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the irc notes can come in handy later | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | with all the links | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | if i find a major blunder later on | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | selling out is typically a "one-off" | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | it's difficult to sellout more than once | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | as you do get caught and called out | Apr 07 18:11 |
schestowitz-pi2 | one last litre of coffee brewed in the teapot now | Apr 07 18:16 |

schestowitz-pi2 | xpayer... | Apr 07 18:16 |
schestowitz-pi2 | 4pm start around there | Apr 07 18:16 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i realise these days that | Apr 07 18:34 |
schestowitz-pi2 | just as tech moves fast | Apr 07 18:34 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and software more so | Apr 07 18:34 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the tech activism space changes rapidly | Apr 07 18:34 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and the goalposts move | Apr 07 18:34 |
schestowitz-pi2 | some orgs don't keep up | Apr 07 18:34 |
schestowitz-pi2 | they try to fight yesteryear's windmills | Apr 07 18:35 |
techrights[sec] | Yes, that is part of the problem. Institutions easily and quickly become | Apr 07 18:59 |
techrights[sec] | ossified, even without nefarious influences working to undermine effectiveness. | Apr 07 18:59 |
techrights[sec] | What seems to be happening more these days is that the institutions split off | Apr 07 18:59 |
techrights[sec] | onto tangents to marginalize themselves or cede influence to opponents. | Apr 07 18:59 |
techrights[sec] | For example, the EFF has gone from advancing privacy to advancing privacy for | Apr 07 18:59 |
techrights[sec] | women only, leaving the half of the market to the bad actors who will then | Apr 07 18:59 |
techrights[sec] | come for the rest of the market in short order once they get fully established | Apr 07 18:59 |
techrights[sec] | by the EFF turning a blind eye to their activities | Apr 07 18:59 |
schestowitz-pi2 | after alice and then 101 | Apr 07 19:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | the topic of swpats became less "hot" each year | Apr 07 19:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | in 2014 (same year as alice) we started covering epo abuse | Apr 07 19:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | iirc, may was alice, august was start of epo series | Apr 07 19:07 |
schestowitz-pi2 | media instructed that, for "better good" (eu), censor critics of campinos | Apr 07 19:08 |
