techrights-sec3 | It'd be a fight to sue over that UEFI crap but that is what would be essential | May 09 05:55 |
techrights-sec3 | at this stage. A barrier is that the judges in the Nordic countries tend | May 09 05:55 |

techrights-sec3 | s/should be illegal/is illegal/ but getting the court to acknowledge that | May 09 05:55 |
techrights-sec3 | will be difficult. Getting the EFF or the FSF to pay attention to a freedom | May 09 05:55 |
techrights-sec3 | matter like this would be even more difficult. | May 09 05:55 |
techrights-sec3 | Both, but especially the EFF, have worked hard to alienate their former bases. | May 09 05:55 |
*KindOne_ is now known as KindOne | May 09 06:16 | |
techrights-sec3 | EFF or FSF could survey about UEFI problems like that. With some statistical | May 09 06:18 |
techrights-sec3 | analysis the scope of the problem could be extrapolated. Some of the numbers | May 09 06:18 |
techrights-sec3 | can come from gaming because some majority of bug reports in gaming come | May 09 06:18 |
techrights-sec3 | from GNU/Linux users due to there being a culture of reporting bugs. In | May 09 06:18 |
techrights-sec3 | contrast to the proprietary systems which do not have a community but instead | May 09 06:18 |
techrights-sec3 | a marketplace and the participants in that marketplace have a practice of | May 09 06:18 |
techrights-sec3 | not reporting bugs and being punished for doing so. | May 09 06:18 |

techrights-sec3 | The YouTube LinuxFest Northwest is filled with ads for East European girlfriends | May 09 09:19 |
techrights-sec3 | I had a chromebook for a while (it is from the last year the SSD could be replaced | May 09 09:19 |
techrights-sec3 | so now it runs Linux Mint) and ran it in 'anonymous' mode the whole time. I | May 09 09:19 |
techrights-sec3 | loaned it to xxxxxxxxx's nephew for a while and he watched tons of WWII documentaries | May 09 09:19 |
techrights-sec3 | and for like a year the ads remained pinned to Russian Brides and East European | May 09 09:19 |
techrights-sec3 | girlfriends. Then the 'husband' of a relative turned out to be a transvesite | May 09 09:19 |
techrights-sec3 | and all the ads and video recommendations suddenly turned into gay stuff and about 'coming out' | May 09 09:19 |

schestowitz-pi2 | the hungry birds came back for 3 rounds today | May 09 14:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | but we decided not to entertain them after the first | May 09 14:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | these flaxseeds were very cheap, but hard to believe we can get some again | May 09 14:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | sometimes we give sunflower, those are more expensive though | May 09 14:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | and pine very expensive and we no longer find more | May 09 14:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | another issue is the poo the birds leave | May 09 14:53 |
techrights-sec3 | The bird feeding has to be done quite a few meters from the house. | May 09 14:56 |
techrights-sec3 | An important component of feeding is consistency. Winter is over | May 09 14:56 |
techrights-sec3 | there but at the start of the winter, some birds might adjust their | May 09 14:56 |
techrights-sec3 | behavior (migration or other movement) due to the perceived availability | May 09 14:56 |
techrights-sec3 | of food. So if you start at the begining of the winter you have to | May 09 14:56 |
techrights-sec3 | continue with the exact same food all winter or you might kill off | May 09 14:56 |
techrights-sec3 | quite few. | May 09 14:56 |
techrights-sec3 | There's not much reason to feed during the spring and summer though. | May 09 14:57 |
techrights-sec3 | You might consider a bird bath instead. A small, calm fountain or | May 09 14:57 |
techrights-sec3 | bubbler is needed however to ensure that no mosquitos grow in the water. | May 09 14:57 |
schestowitz-pi2 | there is already running water near us in the canals, which they use | May 09 14:58 |
schestowitz-pi2 | for now it's just a handful of birds anyway, it's just nice to see how they come back and wait or come to the door to receive attention | May 09 14:58 |

techrights-sec3 | I need to make a list of all the species which visit. I look them up but | May 09 15:16 |
techrights-sec3 | since my memory is not great, I quickly forget the names. Now the snow | May 09 15:16 |
techrights-sec3 | is melting in the region so there are relatively few any more. There's | May 09 15:16 |
techrights-sec3 | only about 12 cm left on the main part of the lawn. Much more in the | May 09 15:16 |
techrights-sec3 | shady areas though. | May 09 15:16 |
schestowitz-pi2 | we are still n00b at garden feeding | May 09 15:17 |
schestowitz-pi2 | rather than at the canals | May 09 15:17 |
schestowitz-pi2 | i will learn over time | May 09 15:17 |
techrights-sec3 | There are a lot of books on bird watching and bird feeding. | May 09 15:27 |
techrights-sec3 | Those are still good, but I fear the time for books is subsiding. | May 09 15:27 |
techrights-sec3 | In part they are going away because of the current tsunami of fake, LLM- | May 09 15:27 |

techrights-sec3 | In part because Gen Alpha cannot / does not read. | May 09 15:27 |

techrights-sec3 | which broke everything. PHP was worse though. However, this crap seems | May 09 16:52 |
techrights-sec3 | to have started when m$ turned its attention to Python3 | May 09 16:52 |
schestowitz-pi2 | php "upgrade" kept me up at night | May 09 16:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | on shared hosting you often get no choice | May 09 16:53 |
schestowitz-pi2 | your "programs" will break | May 09 16:53 |
techrights-sec3 | I was on Debian at work at that time. Several PHP problems in a row | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | broke code. Then there was the matter of having half- or quarter- completed | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | modules. And among those, even an idiot like myself spotted open security | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | holes. So at one point I cut my losses and refactored the whole project in | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | Perl5. There were just so many started-but-not-ready PHP modules that it | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | seemed the norm. My theory was that PHP was adopted for two reasons. One | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | was the *huge* smear campaign run by M$ online and via whispers. Another | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | was that many developers 'compromised' by allowing management to force them | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | onto NT (eg XP) such that it was a profound PITA to get anything installed | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | and the monolithic nature of PHP meant the administrative fight to get a | May 09 16:58 |
techrights-sec3 | package installed only had to occur once. Whereas with Perl, it happened | May 09 16:59 |
schestowitz-pi2 | topic #4] | May 09 16:59 |
techrights-sec3 | every time you needed to add another module to the project. | May 09 16:59 |
techrights-sec3 | The loss of productivity that M$ has cost the world is probably mid to high | May 09 16:59 |
techrights-sec3 | triple digit trillions, even not counting malware. | May 09 16:59 |

techrights-sec3 | Unless you were on a GNU/Linux or *BSD system, in which case adding Perl | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | modules was trivial. | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | But as mentioned, many devs were maneuvered into 'accepting' NT instead of | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | a functional operating system. When I considered whether to use Debian | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | or NT on the desktp at work, the boss and one worker used NT. The boss I could | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | foretell was only going to be around for a few months more. I spoke with | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | the worker using NT, but though he sung the praises of NT he could not hide | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | the fact that he did *all* his work via PuTTY on the Solaris and Linux boxes. | May 09 17:17 |
techrights-sec3 | Truth was that NT could do *far* less than GNU/Linux (i.e. Debian) at the time | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | including e-mail and web browsers, but most of all anything related to either | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | software development or web development. The rest of the almost two dozen | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | were already settled in Debian from the start. So the choice was a no-brainer. | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | Use of W95, W98, and NT at home made sure that I knew the real deal and that | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | Windows was an unviable system for any work-related activities. | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | An old acquaintance, a very famous programmer has been pushing m$ alternative | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | IDE for a while. I don't think he is paid for that. I don't think he sold out. | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | I suspect 'they' broke him and that he is hurting, but don't know him well | May 09 17:18 |
schestowitz-pi2 | looking at msft and ibm gossip atm | May 09 17:18 |
schestowitz-pi2 | back in a sec | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | enough to ask pointed questions and can only hope he figures it out on his own | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | along with a solution or two. | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | Have you noticed that e-mails eminating from M$ Exchange these days have no | May 09 17:18 |
techrights-sec3 | headers until they hit the Internet itself? | May 09 17:18 |
schestowitz-pi2 | need to think how to express response/debunking to hey hi "investment" or bailout | May 09 17:24 |
techrights-sec3 | A key item to discover is where how they are pretending to have money and | May 09 17:30 |
techrights-sec3 | where they are pretending to get it from. Maybe it is the OpenAI 'purchase' | May 09 17:30 |
techrights-sec3 | again and again and again... | May 09 17:30 |
schestowitz-pi2 | open' hey hi is all loans | May 09 17:30 |
schestowitz-pi2 | e.g. uae | May 09 17:30 |
schestowitz-pi2 | printing oil money | May 09 17:30 |
techrights-sec3 | Not just that but loans /from/ the very parties they are pretending to buy out. | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | M$ used to give money to schools but the schools bough Macintoshes (back | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | when those were a good thing to have) and promptly started 'donating' | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | Windows licenses instead. The press release would read "Donated $n" in big | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | letters and then buried way down in the text would be the constraint | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | "... equivalent in software licenses". And since M$ could set the value | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | of said licenese, it was in effect printing money. Now the contracts | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | are considered trade secrets and, I strongly suspect, there are multiple | May 09 17:39 |
techrights-sec3 | gag clauses in the contracts regarding all kinds of costs including breaches. | May 09 17:39 |
