abeNd-org | is there some way to get to the actual server console/screen via vnc? not just a 5901 virtual window, but the actual one? | Dec 22 00:43 |
FurnaceBoy | abeNd-org: which server? | Dec 22 00:47 |
FurnaceBoy | abeNd-org: a physical server? or a virtual server? | Dec 22 00:47 |
abeNd-org | sles10, the physical server | Dec 22 00:47 |
FurnaceBoy | you'd need additional hardware | Dec 22 00:48 |
abeNd-org | someone left something running on the server console itself & i need to get at it, i dont want to try to kill it since it wont preserve state | Dec 22 00:48 |
FurnaceBoy | unless i'm misunderstanding you | Dec 22 00:48 |
abeNd-org | eh? gotta be kidding me, linux doesnt allow remote control of the actual server console? its gotta :P | Dec 22 00:48 |
FurnaceBoy | only via screen or similar | Dec 22 00:49 |
FurnaceBoy | or, as i say, hardware | Dec 22 00:49 |
FurnaceBoy | serial console or kvm | Dec 22 00:49 |
abeNd-org | no ipkvm, no ILO card | Dec 22 00:49 |
abeNd-org | otherwise id just use that | Dec 22 00:49 |
abeNd-org | vnc allows you to view the physical screen on windows, or heck, even netware boxes, why not linux? | Dec 22 00:50 |
FurnaceBoy | you'd need to have preconfigured it, same as on windows | Dec 22 00:50 |
abeNd-org | it is a running service at the moment, and i can get to 5901 all i want | Dec 22 00:51 |
abeNd-org | im seeing lots of 5901 faqs, nothing about actual physical console | Dec 22 00:54 |

schestowitz | Arab and Mulsin for example | Dec 22 20:56 |
schestowitz | Many Arabs are CHristian | Dec 22 20:56 |
schestowitz | And some choose to be offended for wrong reasons and use that for censorship | Dec 22 20:57 |
schestowitz | I don't like that | Dec 22 20:57 |
schestowitz | I see news about people getting gagged and having free speech withdrawn, then agitated until an excuse is found to jail/fine them | Dec 22 20:57 |
schestowitz | Free speech with traps is not free speech | Dec 22 20:57 |
schestowitz | And it can only lead to more violence through repression and assumption of privilege of respect | Dec 22 20:58 |
schestowitz | If you act improperly, expect tough words. Simple. | Dec 22 20:58 |
FurnaceBoy | the right is always trying to change the rules | Dec 22 20:58 |
schestowitz | /s/decent/descent/ | Dec 22 20:58 |
FurnaceBoy | you can find this rhetoric in most of their statements. | Dec 22 20:58 |
schestowitz | It's all like this in politics | Dec 22 20:59 |
FurnaceBoy | their line of attack is "You shouldn't be *allowed* to say that." instead of attacking substance. | Dec 22 20:59 |
schestowitz | Depending where you are | Dec 22 20:59 |
schestowitz | I think the class and religion aspects lose here | Dec 22 20:59 |
schestowitz | More people say 'blasphemous' things openly on the Web | Dec 22 20:59 |
schestowitz | And to yell online at oppressors is fashionable, as it probably ought to be | Dec 22 21:00 |
MinceR | just like the commies banning holocaust denial here in absurdistan | Dec 22 21:00 |
MinceR | (but of course not the denial of the crimes the commies have committed) | Dec 22 21:00 |
schestowitz | MinceR: Why not correct them? | Dec 22 21:00 |
MinceR | dunno | Dec 22 21:00 |
schestowitz | The evidence is not on their side, dont' gag them | Dec 22 21:00 |
schestowitz | It's like banning drugs | Dec 22 21:00 |
schestowitz | Won't stop it, drives it undeground | Dec 22 21:00 |
MinceR | i guess all the foaming at their mouth prevents them from disproving the holocaust deniers' claims | Dec 22 21:01 |
MinceR | and now the nazis are getting their comeuppance by destroying what was left of freedom of speech and press | Dec 22 21:01 |
MinceR | i guess it would all be fun to watch from abroad | Dec 22 21:01 |
MinceR | how these millions of drooling idiots support these two fascist crime organizations attack each other and demolishing the country in the process | Dec 22 21:02 |
schestowitz | They censor opposition to the government | Dec 22 21:02 |
MinceR | s/ing// | Dec 22 21:02 |
schestowitz | And to past events | Dec 22 21:02 |
MinceR | i wonder what will come of orban getting to be president (or whatever) of the eu for half a year | Dec 22 21:03 |
schestowitz | So the UK can get a taste of this hui | Dec 22 21:05 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: the ubuntu font is interesting to typographers because it has been a test case for cooperation between old-school type foundries and a totally different open model | Dec 22 21:07 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: at first, there was a lot of tension between the two philosophies, one grounded in a 500-year-old tradition | Dec 22 21:07 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: so i think a lot of lessons have come out of it on both sides | Dec 22 21:08 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: it's not as simple as "design it, and we incorporate it"... it's been a cultural/social integration | Dec 22 21:08 |
FurnaceBoy | i.e. Dalton Maag obviously had not had much exposure to free/open source digital culture at all. it was a shock. | Dec 22 21:09 |
schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: fonts like codecs are a cultural thing | Dec 22 21:16 |
schestowitz | You can capture arts with it, making it owned based on side elements | Dec 22 21:16 |
schestowitz | Like book font or storage format for film/image/audio | Dec 22 21:16 |
schestowitz | ARTISTS DON't think about such issues | Dec 22 21:17 |

schestowitz | I think I should come back to full-time IRC and TR | Dec 22 21:57 |
schestowitz | I decided today | Dec 22 21:58 |
schestowitz | Been one month exactly since Novell was sold | Dec 22 21:58 |
schestowitz | If I wait longer, 4+ years of tracking Novell will go down the drain as memory fades | Dec 22 21:58 |
schestowitz | So I think I should get back full time to the site | Dec 22 21:58 |
schestowitz | Any thoughts? | Dec 22 21:58 |
FurnaceBoy | well | Dec 22 22:09 |
FurnaceBoy | yeah the novell thing is pretty important... | Dec 22 22:10 |

FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: does it ever do anything ELSE? | Dec 22 22:52 |
schestowitz | Yeah | Dec 22 22:52 |
schestowitz | But.. | Dec 22 22:52 |
*FurnaceBoy scratches head | Dec 22 22:52 | |
schestowitz | He's not supposed to say it | Dec 22 22:52 |
schestowitz | It's shock treatment to mosty American | Dec 22 22:52 |
FurnaceBoy | at this point it won't do much good | Dec 22 22:52 |

schestowitz | You dewscribe acts | Dec 22 22:53 |
schestowitz | Let people draw their conclusions | Dec 22 22:53 |
schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: it's state-run terrorism | Dec 22 22:53 |
schestowitz | Done in many countries though | Dec 22 22:53 |

schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: yup | Dec 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | Assange plays with fire | Dec 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | Give ammo to Americans who are told Assange should be arrested or killed | Dec 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | Now they can align him with Bin Laden | Dec 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | And the US public, as suggested by polls, is already well greased us vs Assange | Dec 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | I see this when I speak to my cousins there | Dec 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | They get brainwashed on the left and right | Dec 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | Europe is a different story | Dec 22 23:13 |
FurnaceBoy | right | Dec 22 23:13 |
FurnaceBoy | however I understand why JA says it. even if it's bad politics. | Dec 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | He called them "terrorists" | Dec 22 23:13 |
FurnaceBoy | he's right. | Dec 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | Rmeember: | Dec 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | They can't tell apart people from govt | Dec 22 23:13 |
FurnaceBoy | at a certain point one loses patience trying to dance around the limitations of American mentality. | Dec 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | So saying the US govt engages in terrorism insults the Texans with flags on thier cars | Dec 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | *their | Dec 22 23:13 |

schestowitz | In techrights I don't put in my personal stories | Dec 22 23:16 |
FurnaceBoy | well some people have said that | Dec 22 23:16 |
FurnaceBoy | but it's not a fair criticism,, since he is being witch-hunted specifically. | Dec 22 23:16 |
schestowitz | Keeping oneself out of it lets discussion focus on the body of work | Dec 22 23:17 |
FurnaceBoy | how can he keep himself out of it when he's under individual persecution?? | Dec 22 23:17 |
schestowitz | And he defends himself by saying what's used as smears against him | Dec 22 23:17 |
