techrights[sec]_Not sure.  I gave up on RPM-based distros *completely* well over a decade ago.Jun 23 11:12
techrights[sec]_So I'm not really up to speed on them or, especially, the politics surroundingJun 23 11:12
techrights[sec]_them.  In general, I'll continue to advocate for people to use Devuan, Debian,Jun 23 11:12
techrights[sec]_or Alpine in the server space and Linux Mint on the desktop.Jun 23 11:12
schestowitz-pi2what i the option to run supplementary for today without any dupe detection?Jun 23 13:47
schestowitz-pi2it looks like it got rerun at around 9am, so some new items got discarded and Jun 23 13:47
schestowitz-pi2no backup files I can seeJun 23 13:47
schestowitz-pi2if there an option to run without any dupe detection, just the whole lot?Jun 23 13:47
techrights[sec]_I should add an option to ignore what's already in the database.Jun 23 13:54
techrights[sec]_There is the -u option but that rolls back the latest set not necessarily theJun 23 13:54
techrights[sec]_one from around 9am.  Jun 23 13:54
techrights[sec]_I guess the current way would be to just skip running links-de-duplicate.plJun 23 13:54
techrights[sec]_when you re-run the links?Jun 23 13:54
schestowitz-pi2this issue is so rare that I think just running it now, for today, withoutJun 23 13:56
schestowitz-pi2anything culled, would be bestJun 23 13:56
schestowitz-pi2do I just run the same with -u right now?Jun 23 13:56
schestowitz-pi2latest for given feed is usually at top, so I can copare manually quickly Jun 23 13:56
techrights[sec]_ok I have added a -i option but perhaps a better description or mnemonic is    Jun 23 14:21
techrights[sec]_needed Jun 23 14:21
techrights[sec]_-u would remove the most recent ones which would be the ones from the -mergedJun 23 14:21
techrights[sec]_if i understand correctly, try with --ignore or -iJun 23 14:21
techrights[sec]_or should it be rename to -a and --append insteadJun 23 14:21
techrights[sec]_which would make more sense?Jun 23 14:21
schestowitz-pi2am i correct to deduce the difference is whether deduplicate is run at the end? Jun 23 14:25
techrights[sec]_yesJun 23 14:25
schestowitz-pi2i think last time I needed to do what was like 6 months agoJun 23 14:27
schestowitz-pi2after you changed the code and some things were culled in errorJun 23 14:27
schestowitz-pi2in this case, i think the second run for today vanished some itemsJun 23 14:27
schestowitz-pi2and maybe again beforeJun 23 14:27
schestowitz-pi2even just getting all for past 7 days, without culling, may give peace of mindJun 23 14:27
schestowitz-pi2i decided to record the 3-3 videos after 5pmJun 23 14:27
schestowitz-pi2to give my MP time to respondJun 23 14:28
techrights[sec]_yes re-running the deduplicator means elimating the links which were already Jun 23 14:29
techrights[sec]_in the db that's what deduplicator doesJun 23 14:29
techrights[sec]_should the new option be called --ignore or --append ?Jun 23 14:29
techrights[sec]_ok Jun 23 14:29
techrights[sec]_tested locally, testing now on the serverJun 23 14:29
schestowitz-pi2maybe ignoreJun 23 14:31
schestowitz-pi2you can test that on the serverJun 23 14:31

schestowitz-pi2Hi Roy -- I am a journalist who writes frequently and critically about free and open software projects, including these articles about Linux, Mozilla and Wikipedia. Jun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2I think we are on a similar wavelength re: the Linux Foundation and I have already  learned a lot from your collection of links. Do you think we could find a time to speak? Jun 23 17:22
psydroid2I was happy to have an e-mail address that wasn't tied to big tech, but the server went offline a few months agoJun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2I'm interested in a number of questions:Jun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2* How did you become focused on the abuses/corruption of the LF?Jun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2* Why do you think it has never really been written about in the mainstream technical press?Jun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2* What responses have you received from the LF or its employees?Jun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2* Can you direct me to any former employees who might be able to speak about the foundation and how it treats its employees? A place with lots of money and little outside scrutiny becomes ripe for workplace abuse and there is a high turnover at the foundation, from what I've heard.Jun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2I've interviewed a person involved in making Linux work well with arm chips and they described a situation where Intel has an inside track and Linux isn't a fair playing field. Do you think this is the right way to expose the corruption -- pay to code -- system there? Intel vs. arm?Jun 23 17:22
schestowitz-pi2I'm eager to tell this story -- it really speaks to the way the digital world works and look forward to getting your thoughts and suggestions.Jun 23 17:23

psydroid2the Intel vs ARM thing is what I've talked about beforeJun 23 17:25
psydroid2Linux ran better on x86 chips for a long time because Intel spent a lot of money on optimising it for x86Jun 23 17:26
psydroid2not because ARM and other chips weren't capableJun 23 17:26

schestowitz-pi2forewarnedJun 23 21:20
schestowitz-pi2<p class="dropcap-first"><a name="top">T</a>HOSE who have been following our <a href="http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/IBM" title="IBM">IBM coverage in recent years</a> won't be surprised at all by what's happening right now. It's far from shocking, they just do it one little step at a time, turning RHEL into AIX or treating it like their premium UNIX, which is more or less proprietary (to the extent tolerated by the GPL if not slightly Jun 23 21:20
schestowitz-pi2beyond that).</p>Jun 23 21:20
schestowitz-pi2While people online are still debating whether IBM complies with the terms of the GPL (see <a href="http://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/06/22/y.shtml" title="RedHat Limits Access to RHEL Source Code, Sparks Controversy in Linux Community">some links here in <em>Tux Machines</em></a> and in our previous batches of Daily Links at <em>Techrights</em>), there's no doubt that there's no goodwill here. IBM does not value the community. It's driving it Jun 23 21:20
schestowitz-pi2away. It views volunteers as slaves who, at best, "stand in the way" by expressing their views. It's [cref 148041 removing them based on their nationality], [cref 129883 especially the more influential ones]. Jun 23 21:20
schestowitz-pi2If you wish to help GNU/Linux, please don't help IBM. Devote time and effort to community-run distros that truly value copyright rather than barely tolerate it. Jun 23 21:22
schestowitz-pi2copyleftJun 23 21:22
schestowitz-pi2IBM is stuck in the mindset of the 1980s and 1990s; it [cref 128012 does not like the General Public Licence] and, having been somewhat of a parasite on GNU and Linux since the mid-1990s, Red Hat (under IBM leadership/command) now pretends that Commons are inherently parasiticalJun 23 21:24
