| schestowitz | Dear Roy, | May 14 10:57 |
| schestowitz | This is something I've wanted to get out for a while, but I've never known exactly what to say, until now. It's important that I say it to you. | May 14 10:57 |
| schestowitz | I'm sorry. I was one of the really obnoxious people from Linsux, back in the day, and I was one of the people that gave you a hard time for no real reason at all. Frankly, I acted like a total dick, and what I was doing was completely unwarranted. | May 14 10:57 |
| schestowitz | I know it was quite a long time ago, and people can change quite a lot in short increments of time, but I wanted to let you know that for whatever grief I may have caused, I am terribly sorry. I lacked a lot of sensibility and maturity back then. | May 14 10:57 |
| schestowitz | I just want you to know that I have a great deal of respect for what you do with TechRights. Keep doing what you're doing. | May 14 10:57 |
| schestowitz | Best, -Sean | May 14 10:57 |

| schestowitz | I gave my forgiveness a long time ago. At the time, especially around 07/08, people were daemonising me especially because they needed to incite people against the messenger. These days I know how to better avoid those characterizations (or character assassinations). | May 14 10:59 |

| schestowitz | As you can tell by the shutdown issues, over the past 2 days I've had a familiar issue returning - spontaneous shutdown which log files do not seem to shed much light on, although I suspected it was ntp-related (due to me adding it when it started happening) or GPU-related. I've begun looking at the possibility of buying a new computer to join this cluster (with monitors perhaps), but will continue to investigate the current | May 14 19:45 |
| schestowitz | problem too. | May 14 19:45 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: PSU? | May 14 19:46 |
| schestowitz | yeah, likely | May 14 19:55 |
| XFaCE | qu1j0t3: hello my fred | May 14 20:12 |

| XFaCE | qu1j0t3: C11 debated today | May 14 20:29 |
| XFaCE | qu1j0t3: any updates | May 14 20:29 |
| schestowitz | MinceR: "Gay marriage is actually the wrong answer to a true problem. I do not mean gays should not be able to get married : what I mean is the State should not ever know what's inside your pants and what you're doing with it. I'm going to write something about it on my blog, but that's a measure defended by many pirates around the world." https://joindiaspora.com/posts/1611875 | May 14 20:41 |
| TechrightsSocial | Not a Diaspora post? | May 14 20:41 |
| schestowitz | "Evolved my ass. He did it to get re-elected. Just another politician." | May 14 20:41 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: i am not at all sure he will be re-elected. | May 14 20:42 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: the polls are only 2% apart. i predicted a cliff-hanger and looks like we'll get one. | May 14 20:42 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: I believe the GOP will be returned, as in 2000 and potentially with similar drama. | May 14 20:42 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: also, i am not convinced the gay marriage thing is a net gain for Democrats | May 14 20:43 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: stupid remains the most common element south of here | May 14 20:43 |
| XFaCE | qu1j0t3: The GOP could win if this "I won't vote for anything" trend continues | May 14 20:46 |
| qu1j0t3 | they are obsessed with manipulating voter turnout | May 14 20:46 |
| qu1j0t3 | it's what they did in 2000 and 2004 | May 14 20:46 |
| qu1j0t3 | they're constantly disenfranchising and tweaking voter groups | May 14 20:47 |
| qu1j0t3 | same as harper | May 14 20:47 |
| qu1j0t3 | cuz they sure can't win on ideas | May 14 20:47 |
| qu1j0t3 | :) | May 14 20:47 |
| qu1j0t3 | hence robocall | May 14 20:47 |
| MinceR | schestowitz: imo the state should not do anything with the idea of marriage | May 14 20:52 |
| MinceR | if people want to do something and call it marriage, it should be their own business | May 14 20:52 |
| schestowitz | I think it's more of a church thing | May 14 21:00 |
| qu1j0t3 | right | May 14 21:00 |
| schestowitz | I'm getting married this year, but Civil Ceremony | May 14 21:00 |
| qu1j0t3 | if you remove state and church definitions of marriage then you have ANARCHY! | May 14 21:00 |
| qu1j0t3 | the teapot can marry the cat! | May 14 21:00 |
| qu1j0t3 | SOCIETY WILL GO TO HELL | May 14 21:00 |
| qu1j0t3 | what's that you say? it already did???? | May 14 21:00 |
| schestowitz | I think it's a social conformance thing to be officially married, when you leave aside all the "bullshit" (as my friends call it) with throwing a bit expensive party - consumerism | May 14 21:00 |
| qu1j0t3 | yes, it's a tribal thing | May 14 21:01 |
| qu1j0t3 | ritual | May 14 21:01 |
| qu1j0t3 | all rather annoying. | May 14 21:01 |
| qu1j0t3 | i don't know why you'd do it :) | May 14 21:01 |
| schestowitz | what? | May 14 21:01 |
| qu1j0t3 | get married! i mean why? | May 14 21:01 |
| schestowitz | the party thing? | May 14 21:01 |
| qu1j0t3 | no, the whole schemozzle | May 14 21:01 |
| schestowitz | let's ask the opposite - what's the drawback? | May 14 21:01 |
| qu1j0t3 | supporting meaningless institutions :) | May 14 21:02 |
| qu1j0t3 | given the choice, i'd rather ignore the institution, because i think it's healthier for society to do so. | May 14 21:02 |
| schestowitz | In this case the institutions are lawyers | May 14 21:04 |
| schestowitz | not religious | May 14 21:04 |
| qu1j0t3 | i know, it's mutated | May 14 21:06 |
| qu1j0t3 | the whole thing turns me off | May 14 21:06 |
| qu1j0t3 | like circumcision | May 14 21:06 |
| schestowitz | You got married to your current, right? | May 14 21:06 |
| schestowitz | the "exit barrier" thing | May 14 21:07 |
| qu1j0t3 | yes. not exactly our choice. | May 14 21:16 |
| qu1j0t3 | but it's done now. | May 14 21:16 |
| qu1j0t3 | i'm really just saying that in absence of all other factors i'd prefer not. | May 14 21:16 |
| qu1j0t3 | she wouldn't agree though,. she believes it's significant | May 14 21:17 |
| qu1j0t3 | in and of itself, as a symbol | May 14 21:17 |
| qu1j0t3 | i guess | May 14 21:17 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: so in a way, having it done with may have avoided a conflict :) | May 14 21:17 |
| qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: my dad re-married for similar reasons. "made the paperwork easier" | May 14 21:17 |
| schestowitz | agreed | May 14 21:25 |
| qu1j0t3 | he certainly would never have done it for sentimental/cultural reasons | May 14 21:27 |
