schestowitz_bed2"Tanx Roy, I have just installed mageia 3 in my nephew's laptop, an old Dell precision notebook, so I'm not happy to view this fast upgrade trend. In my opinion the cycles release could be more time long. One or one and half year are too much short. Ok the Mageia is a cutting-edge distribution but I like a more LTS version. Bye the way Mageia rulezzz :)"Jan 26 16:28

gde33I'm trying to look from the perspective of content creatorsJan 27 09:30
gde33if there is no reward they wont create anythingJan 27 09:30
iophkI know.  The net has been such a desert.  Not even one business uses it yet. Jan 27 09:31
gde33it might just be great if you had to pay for thingsJan 27 09:31
iophkMaybe it will be really great if the carriers can charge for both ends of the connection instead of just the one.Jan 27 09:32
gde33it seems nesasaryJan 27 09:32
iophkAnd thus kill the goose that has been laying the golden eggs.Jan 27 09:32

*TweetTuxMachines @RanjibDey retweeted @tuxmachines: 'Samsung, Google sign patent deal http://t.co/G2uTxQbE4D'Jan 27 09:33
gde33I'm not so sure about thatJan 27 09:33
iophkFalse dichotomy.  The net, with net neutrality, has made a lot of money for a lot of people and their businesses.  Jan 27 09:33
gde33I think people who make it their goal not to earn money are never going to have the influence they seekJan 27 09:33
iophkThere's probably precious few small businesses without a web presence.Jan 27 09:34
iophkAnything bigger has a serious web site.Jan 27 09:34
gde33it isn't a system that favors the little guy at allJan 27 09:34
gde33it favors the big and fat Jan 27 09:34
iophkEliminating net neutrality will eliminate the little guy all together.Jan 27 09:34
gde33nonsenseJan 27 09:34
iophkToo many fees.Jan 27 09:35
iophkDouble billing .Jan 27 09:35

gde33thats what is wrongJan 27 09:40
gde33want the fruits of my labor for freeJan 27 09:40

gde33I'm trying but it is very limitedJan 27 09:40
gde33I'm not seeing thatJan 27 09:41
MinceRalso, not all artists make a living from artJan 27 09:41
iophkMost art only has value after the demise of the artist.  Jan 27 09:42
gde33I think you should spend your money how you likeJan 27 09:42
iophkMany famous works are that way.Jan 27 09:42
gde33if that shuold be made impossible we should get rid of moneyJan 27 09:42
gde33dont blame the internet for how things work?Jan 27 09:42
iophkSo why are you blaming the net then?Jan 27 09:43
gde33my curiosity was triggered by it not being such a bad idea as it seemed at firstJan 27 09:43
iophkNothing stops you for putting up a paywall on your site.Jan 27 09:43
gde33lots of things stop me from doing thatJan 27 09:43
gde33how would you like to pay?Jan 27 09:44
iophkOffer several options.Jan 27 09:44
gde33howabout a contract with your service providerJan 27 09:45
iophkNo ISPs that I know of offer gated communities in that way.Jan 27 09:45
iophkYou need to set up your own paywall..Jan 27 09:45
gde33every man for himselfJan 27 09:45

gde33some sort of system that makes it worth to create contentJan 27 09:50
iophkDefine content.Jan 27 09:50
gde33say you sit yourself down and write a bookJan 27 09:51
gde33now you are going to publish it on the internetJan 27 09:51
iophkSo far the net is empty with no info at all out there.  Not even one service or product yet.  We've got all this connectivity and waiting with no results yet...Jan 27 09:51
gde33now you need multinationals because that is net neutralityJan 27 09:51
gde33writing for the enemyJan 27 09:52
gde33lolJan 27 09:52
iophkPublish via a publisher.  There are many to choose from.  It can be a small publisher.Jan 27 09:52
gde33it wont workJan 27 09:52
gde33it just doesnt workJan 27 09:52
iophkNope. No e-books have happened yet.  We're still waiting for them.Jan 27 09:52
MinceRyeah, it's not like people are making money by selling booksJan 27 09:52
MinceRright nowJan 27 09:52
gde33it doesnt work because the deal doesn't depend on the quality of the workJan 27 09:52
MinceRin the model you propose, it would depend a lot less on the quality of the workJan 27 09:53
MinceRit would depend only on which isp manages to get a monopoly where you liveJan 27 09:53
gde33not that I dont apperciate the crusade against the monopoly but we seem to have lost that war alreadyJan 27 09:54
MinceRso let's give up and hand everything else to the winners, too?Jan 27 09:54
gde33if you want a stable system you have to accept a bit of bad works that go unpunishedJan 27 09:55

gde33MinceR: not at allJan 27 09:55
iophkgde33: name one site that is not paid for alreadyJan 27 09:55
gde33just look at all perspectives, apperciate the view, then try find something betterJan 27 09:56
gde33I could most likely still make a popular website, but when I did I hated the attention.Jan 27 09:56
gde33you need thousands of people, then you still earn nothing.Jan 27 09:56
gde33you have to plaster the pages with advertisement to get tiny revenue :PJan 27 09:57
iophkThen you need a better business plan...Jan 27 09:57
gde33the web needs oneJan 27 09:57
gde33the content creator should be judged by his content, now how he plays the search engine lottoJan 27 09:58
MinceRyour scheme would merely force users to pay whoever wins the search engine lotteryJan 27 09:58
gde33not the userJan 27 09:58
MinceRor whoever diverts the user's browser using whatever exploit worksJan 27 09:59
gde33the packages should be tailored just like television stationsJan 27 09:59
gde33just like you get a bunch of magazinesJan 27 09:59
gde33because the web is so big you can do huge numbers of themJan 27 10:00
iophkI see.  The net is too open and the cable tv model is more appropriate, you say.Jan 27 10:00
gde33it has it's advantagesJan 27 10:00
DaemonFCI think that DRM might be losing more sales for them than it's worth.Jan 27 10:01
iophkI haven't seen any.  Most I've seen myself and heard from others is that the cable tv model, with bundling, is a liability.Jan 27 10:01
iophkDRM does cost sales.Jan 27 10:01
MinceR105810 < gde33> the packages should be tailored just like television stationsJan 27 10:01
gde33we would get ourselves the FOSS package and read delicious FOSS blogs the whole monthJan 27 10:01

DaemonFCMinceR: Right. I remember asking Comcast repeatedly to carry LOGO.Jan 27 10:01

iophkResearch databases also have that model.  High-impact journals are spread across several bundles so that the fees to get all of them are outrageous to impossible.Jan 27 10:02
gde33you still get the normal internetJan 27 10:02
MinceRyeah, if crippled is "normal"Jan 27 10:02

MinceRthen don't do anythingJan 27 10:03
DaemonFCGood luck getting people to pay for what they will gladly take for free right now.Jan 27 10:04
gde33the FOSS subscription will give you access to a web entirely without people who didn't buy that subscriptionJan 27 10:04
DaemonFCThey need to monetize the "piracy" somehow.Jan 27 10:04
gde33that is the added valueJan 27 10:04
gde33finally a whole web with nothing but apple usersJan 27 10:04

gde33[17:03:33] <schestowitz_bed2> [09:31] <iophk> I know.  The net has been such a desert.  Not even one business uses it yet. :-)Jan 27 19:16
gde33[17:03:38] <schestowitz_bed2> Content creatorsJan 27 19:16
gde33[17:03:45] <schestowitz_bed2> [09:30] <gde33> I'm trying to look from the perspective of content creatorsJan 27 19:16
gde33[17:03:46] <schestowitz_bed2> [09:30] <gde33> if there is no reward they wont create anythingJan 27 19:16
gde33[17:03:53] <schestowitz_bed2> Poor content creator... who would farm for food?Jan 27 19:16
gde33[17:04:45] <schestowitz_bed2> If anything, the copyright cartel/monoopoly NEEDS neutralityJan 27 19:16
gde33[17:04:52] <schestowitz_bed2> to make it affordable to streamJan 27 19:16
gde33[17:04:58] <schestowitz_bed2> people pay the bill for traddicJan 27 19:16
gde33[17:05:10] <schestowitz_bed2> the problem is, the cartel sometimes owns the cable companies too, or vice versaJan 27 19:16
gde33you think you can force out the artJan 27 19:16
iophkHow much did VanGogh get paid?Jan 27 19:17
gde33NOTHINGJan 27 19:17
gde33that was good right?Jan 27 19:17
iophkNot much of a business model then...Jan 27 19:17
gde33that is your ideal model?Jan 27 19:17
gde33I only hear selling content is a terrible idea, one should get into the bitcoin ponzi in steadJan 27 19:18
gde33very homogenious standardsJan 27 19:18
gde33I wish this channel cost 100 euro per monthJan 27 19:19
iophkpay Roy then.Jan 27 19:20
gde33it would add some urgency to the debate, I would be helped by thatJan 27 19:20
gde33I've tried constructive discussion with people on the web for many years, if I look at the results I have to say far I've been wasting my time and effort.Jan 27 19:21
iophkThis afternoon you were hinting at a tax on net traffic to subsidize something or other.Jan 27 19:22
gde33yeah, then you asked for evidence, then I explained how it keeps out uninterested people, l gave an example, then you argued a sucker is born every minute as to prove the topic was unintersting? something like that?Jan 27 19:23
iophkpaying for the sake of paying? Jan 27 19:23
gde33exactlyJan 27 19:23
iophkNo return for that payment is for suckers.Jan 27 19:24
gde33no no, the payment is to keep out that opinionJan 27 19:24
gde33to make sure you are not there to elaborate on your skepticismJan 27 19:24
gde33not that it isn't validJan 27 19:24
iophkStart an alternate internet for people with more dollars than senseJan 27 19:25
gde33that is what i'm wondering about basically, how that would lookJan 27 19:25
iophkThere's a lot of dark fiber out there.Jan 27 19:25
gde33we can only guess I think?Jan 27 19:25
iophkNot if you have a business plan and enough money to back it up.Jan 27 19:25
gde33you also need to be motivated to go do something like thatJan 27 19:26
gde33in what way do I benefit from paying for googles bandwith?Jan 27 19:27
gde33Makes it sound as if the price they charge has something to do with the cost of what they are sellingJan 27 19:27
gde33it doesntJan 27 19:27
gde33they are just looking to max out proffitJan 27 19:27
iophkGoogle is paying for Google's bandwidth currently.Jan 27 19:28
iophkThey pay big money for that.Jan 27 19:28
gde33trueJan 27 19:28
gde33it is that atractive to own the infrastucture your business runs onJan 27 19:28
gde33I do completely agree with the ideology of customer own infrasturctureJan 27 19:28
gde33with most people it is just pearls for pigsJan 27 19:29
iophkYou have to continue with common carriage or it just will choke.Jan 27 19:29
gde33sorry not sure what you are trying to explain hereJan 27 19:29
iophkThe Internet is a network of networks.  If they don't allow the traffic of others, then nothing functions except for a crappy little zone.  That's what has already been tried and already failed.Jan 27 19:30
gde33that a non neutral internet would drown out the free things?Jan 27 19:30
iophkAnd the paid thingsJan 27 19:30
iophkespeially the paid thingsJan 27 19:30
gde33depends how you structure the paymentsJan 27 19:31
iophkbesides there aren't any free things on the netJan 27 19:31
iophkthey are all paid forJan 27 19:31

gde33let me put it like this: In what way do I benefit from net neturality as a content creator?Jan 27 19:32
MinceRyou get to compete at allJan 27 19:33
MinceRusers can access your content without having their connection to it crippledJan 27 19:33
MinceRyou get a chanceJan 27 19:33
gde33oh but they do, I can only afford very minimalistic hostingJan 27 19:33
MinceRwithout net neutrality, you don't even get a chanceJan 27 19:33
gde33how would that work?Jan 27 19:33
MinceRhow would what work?Jan 27 19:34
gde33not getting a chanceJan 27 19:34
MinceRlet's say you host some videos on your siteJan 27 19:34
MinceRthe user's isp has a deal with google, so they offer youtube; and they offer their own siteJan 27 19:34
gde33cant afford the bandwith but ok, lets assume I couldJan 27 19:34
MinceRyou don't have a deal with them because you're a competitor and you're small fryJan 27 19:34
gde33yesJan 27 19:35
MinceRif they're feeling gracious the user isn't entirely banned from your siteJan 27 19:35
MinceRthey just don't get to stream the video at allJan 27 19:35
MinceRit's like they're using a 9600 bps modem to access the siteJan 27 19:35
gde33the user paid for internet, he can have access to anything he wantsJan 27 19:35
MinceRyes, if they have net neutralityJan 27 19:35
MinceRif they don't, then the user can have access to anything the ISP wants him toJan 27 19:35
MinceRhowever the ISP wants him toJan 27 19:35
iophkat whatever lowered speeds the ISP wants him to...Jan 27 19:36
gde33start your own isp?Jan 27 19:36
iophknot enough because the other ISPs you connect to can stil choke youJan 27 19:36
MinceRwhere will you get the finds for that?Jan 27 19:36
gde33I think we will have exactly the same thing only in a different formatJan 27 19:36
MinceRand where will you provide service?Jan 27 19:36
MinceRs/find/fund/Jan 27 19:37
MinceRno, we don't even have nearly the same thingJan 27 19:37
MinceRof course, things get even worse if you used some p2p protocol to help with hostingJan 27 19:37
gde33you are saying that net neutrality will give the ISP the right to block websites?Jan 27 19:37
MinceRnormally, that does work (GNU/Linux iso distribution via BitTorrent, for example)Jan 27 19:37
gde33is that really the same topic?Jan 27 19:37
MinceRyes, among other thingsJan 27 19:37
MinceRpart of what a common carrier is about is that they aren't allowed to decide what to block and what to allow throughJan 27 19:38
MinceRbut if you don't have net neutrality, the ISPs will just block p2p protocols entirelyJan 27 19:38
gde33so the blocked content is just not availableJan 27 19:38
gde33you dont get access to all the books for exampleJan 27 19:38
MinceRit can be blocked entirelyJan 27 19:38
gde33you didn't pay for that > no accessJan 27 19:39
MinceRor it can be allowed but slowed down arbitrarilyJan 27 19:39
gde33Are we not creating a giant straw man for the ISP? Is there really no way to do this fairly?Jan 27 19:39
MinceRnoJan 27 19:39
MinceRthe way to do this fairly is called net neutralityJan 27 19:40
gde33as in no blocking of content, just additional packages?Jan 27 19:40
MinceRanything else is by definition unfairJan 27 19:40
MinceRthey won't phrase it as "blocking of content"Jan 27 19:40
MinceRfor a normal internet user, all of the internet is the defaultJan 27 19:40
MinceRfor a non-neutral greedy ISP, nothing is the default, everything is "additional"Jan 27 19:41
gde33I will explain it again, this time I will just convince you: The thing is, proof of work equals value.Jan 27 19:41
gde33you can create cryptographic hashees and sell those in stead of selling contentJan 27 19:42
iophkbitcoinJan 27 19:42
gde33but it will always be a pretend gameJan 27 19:42
gde33pretend valueJan 27 19:42
gde33so you are just pretending everything is free / worthlessJan 27 19:42
iophkyou're missing the point that it's all paid for alreadyJan 27 19:43
iophkno need to pay twiceJan 27 19:43
gde33not enoughJan 27 19:43
iophkpay Roy thenJan 27 19:43
gde33my point was payments for the sake of payments remember?Jan 27 19:43
iophkand a solution was offered.  Fund your alternative to the Internet.Jan 27 19:44
gde33if existing plots are all that terrible at granting things their value, what else can we think of?Jan 27 19:44
gde33but wasnt that what netneutrality aimed to prevent?Jan 27 19:45
gde33everyone will be against me just for trying to attribute value lolJan 27 19:45
iophkValue to what?Jan 27 19:45
gde33to everythingJan 27 19:46
iophkUse Flattr thenJan 27 19:46
gde33that will only work for 0% of my trafficJan 27 19:47
iophk Maybe it is already being compensated in proportion to its perceived value... Jan 27 19:47
gde33not an acceptable hypothesisJan 27 19:48
gde33you can go project that on your own creationsJan 27 19:48
iophkthe data seems to support itJan 27 19:48
gde33not at all actuallyJan 27 19:48
gde33I just hatted the attentionJan 27 19:49
gde33I dont like having attention from more people than I can answer toJan 27 19:49
iophkHow did your test of Flattr go?  What was wrong?Jan 27 19:49
gde33I'm looking at it right now for the first timeJan 27 19:49

gde33is also funJan 27 19:50
gde33but I'm not seeing the revolutionJan 27 19:50
gde33the hard worked content items are not worth anywhere as much as the cryptographic hashJan 27 19:50
gde33this while you can just easly create a hashJan 27 19:50
gde33much easier than producing a valuable workJan 27 19:51
gde33I can also do a ponzi scheme with site creditsJan 27 19:51
iophkThere is also crowdsourcing.Jan 27 19:51
gde33that seems to workJan 27 19:51
iophkBut then deliverables are required.Jan 27 19:51
gde33facinating developmentJan 27 19:51
gde33I dont even know howmany kickstarter victims there areJan 27 19:52
gde33there is at least one who lost his shipmentJan 27 19:52
gde33in most of the cases it seems to work nicelyJan 27 19:52
gde33still it seems more a measure of peoples kindness than of the collective vision for the future?Jan 27 19:53

MinceR204019 < gde33> I will explain it again, this time I will just convince you: The thing is, proof of work equals value.Jan 27 20:06
MinceRit doesn't.Jan 27 20:06
MinceRvalue is what the market values. work may well be wasted.Jan 27 20:06
MinceRas for network access, it's currently paid for by the users alreadyJan 27 20:07
MinceRthere's no need to pretend that it's provided gratis.Jan 27 20:07
gde33proof of workJan 27 20:08
MinceRsame thing.Jan 27 20:08
iophkeffort != valueJan 27 20:08
MinceR(but it's a very communist thing to insist that any busywork is valuable and that everyone must be robbed to compensate the communist for worthless work)Jan 27 20:08
gde33you need to feel useful toJan 27 20:09
gde33in that way there is value, one can even play footballJan 27 20:09
MinceRfootball had better be useful by itself, thenJan 27 20:11
gde33who made you the decider?Jan 27 20:11
MinceRof what?Jan 27 20:11
gde33that came out wrong lolJan 27 20:12
gde33who decided what has value and what not?Jan 27 20:12
MinceRthe market didJan 27 20:12
MinceRthe people who had money they could and were willing to spend on goods.Jan 27 20:12
gde33but on the perceved value not what things cost to makeJan 27 20:12
MinceRwith the loss of net neutrality, the market would lose controlJan 27 20:12
MinceRand it would be placed in the hand of the corporate oligarchs.Jan 27 20:13
MinceRwhoever owns your internet connection would decide whose news you read.Jan 27 20:13
gde33why wouldnt that happen anyway?Jan 27 20:13
MinceRit certainly looks like it's happeningJan 27 20:14
gde33I can make a blog right now, write blog posts, but no one is going to read themJan 27 20:14
MinceReven the w3c has turned against its old idea of an open webJan 27 20:14
gde33people cant even find them without the oligarchsJan 27 20:14
MinceRyes they canJan 27 20:14
MinceRfor example, i could ask you the address right now, if i wanted to knowJan 27 20:14
MinceRand i could read it all without my ISP's express permission.Jan 27 20:15
gde33then if todays posting is not precicely what you are looking for you never look at it againJan 27 20:15
gde33easy come easy goJan 27 20:15
MinceRand you would deprive me of that choice?Jan 27 20:15
MinceRdo you think your blog is so important that people should be forced to read it?Jan 27 20:16
gde33I would deprive you from such harsh judgementJan 27 20:16
gde33The blog could be so important everyone should read it.Jan 27 20:16
gde33the chance is thereJan 27 20:17
gde33to become a good writer you have to write the whole timeJan 27 20:17
gde33it might be crap some daysJan 27 20:17
gde33you shouldnt be put on trial over each blog postJan 27 20:17
gde33overal performanceJan 27 20:18
MinceRand you won't beJan 27 20:18
MinceRif what you do is valued, the word will spreadJan 27 20:18
MinceRand there are search engines too, including at least one p2p oneJan 27 20:18
gde33nah the word wont spread, you have to work your ass offJan 27 20:19
gde33asking random strangers for a few bucks would go much fasterJan 27 20:20
MinceRyes, you have to work your ass offJan 27 20:20
MinceRand if you do it right, the word will spreadJan 27 20:20
gde33then what? big bandwith bills?Jan 27 20:20

gde33you have to go full retard, "become a militard, join the fight in iraq today"Jan 27 20:23
gde33then you make moneyJan 27 20:23
MinceRyou'll need a business modelJan 27 20:23
MinceRhopefully a better one than "herp derp let's gang up on the users and rob them blind"Jan 27 20:23
gde33not my kind of planJan 27 20:23

gde33why do we have all this audience building he has to get into?Jan 27 20:30

gde33that doesnt make people less valuableJan 27 20:31
MinceRand listeners have limited timeJan 27 20:31
MinceRare you sure of that? :>Jan 27 20:31
gde33oh yes, I believe most of the problelms we can produce are based on not valuing people.Jan 27 20:32
gde33then moan when others dont value you eitherJan 27 20:32
MinceRif you do not value people, is that just another way of saying that people have zero value? :>Jan 27 20:32
gde33when you abuse people you get to be abused basicallyJan 27 20:32
MinceRi'd be fine with just not bothering each otherJan 27 20:33
MinceRbut for most people that's a concept too advancedJan 27 20:33
gde33MinceR: just that you value them less I supposeJan 27 20:33
gde33I believe in bothering people a little bitJan 27 20:33

gde33maybe we are the ones without sins?Jan 27 20:40
gde33lolJan 27 20:40
MinceRthat depends on how you define 'sin'Jan 27 20:40
gde33I define it as who should throw the first stoneJan 27 20:41
MinceRcertain religious zealots who believe themselves to be experts on ethics believe that you're responsible for the sins of your ancestorsJan 27 20:41
MinceRwhich shows how much they really know about ethicsJan 27 20:41
gde33at least we get to suffer their sins Jan 27 20:41
MinceRyayJan 27 20:41
gde33but also enjoy their accomplishmentsJan 27 20:41
MinceRi was kinda hoping for more than just sufferingJan 27 20:41
gde33I had a dream a few days ago where I finally calculated why religion is nothing but an ego tripJan 27 20:42
gde33the idea one would be punished in the after life for what one doesJan 27 20:42
MinceRit's worse than an ego tripJan 27 20:42
gde33when I do something I dont care about thatJan 27 20:42
gde33I do things because they need doing, burning forever might just be worth itJan 27 20:42
MinceRit's a mental infection that poisons everythingJan 27 20:42
gde33we should have put George's head on a pike way back in 2001, then suffer the eternal punishment.Jan 27 20:43
gde33it would be totally worth itJan 27 20:43
MinceRdubya?Jan 27 20:43

gde33he is going to punish me?Jan 27 20:43
MinceR"God" does not exist.Jan 27 20:44
gde33that is suppose to stop me from doing the right thing?Jan 27 20:44
MinceRits definition is inconsistent with itself, therefore falseJan 27 20:44
gde33exactlyJan 27 20:44
gde33but my argument is that it is all rooted on egoistic behaviorJan 27 20:44

gde33the collective feeling of trying to do the right thingJan 27 20:45
MinceRand then you realized that they undermine the ability to reason? :>Jan 27 20:45
MinceRalso any possibility of toleranceJan 27 20:46
gde33that isn't an argument you can use to convince that personJan 27 20:46
gde33if you can show him he is all doing this for himself Jan 27 20:46
MinceRthere is no argument you can use to convince a religious zealot.Jan 27 20:46
gde33then that changes the whole storyJan 27 20:46
gde33I think there is a good compromise available.Jan 27 20:46
MinceRone of the main traits the memetic evolution of religion selects for is the immunization against removal and against competitorsJan 27 20:46
gde33we take all the good stuff offered by a relgion, then we put that in a new wrapper and ask non religious people to help with these good thingsJan 27 20:47
gde33then we would be willing to help themJan 27 20:47
MinceRif it isn't based on reason, then it doesn't have a good foundationJan 27 20:47
MinceRand if it is, then it isn't religion.Jan 27 20:47
gde33some of it can be based on reasonJan 27 20:48
gde33if we the people start a non proffit to make a better world you better not get the idea to build a church from the donationsJan 27 20:48
gde33we might need to hire a few people to do the administration and we might need a buildingJan 27 20:49
gde33if the church has a ready made building available for this it seems usableJan 27 20:49
gde33hell, they would be doing the lords work?Jan 27 20:50

gde33those things could all be repackaged Jan 27 20:52

gde33brainscans for politicians and a diploma before you get to voteJan 27 21:02
MinceRthat won't helpJan 27 21:03
gde33I had some fun discussions with people about those 2Jan 27 21:03
gde33why wont it help?Jan 27 21:03
MinceRit merely installs a centralized authority that decides who gets to run for office and who gets to voteJan 27 21:03
MinceRsure, they'll claim it's for objective reasonsJan 27 21:03
MinceRbut it won't beJan 27 21:03
gde33not if it cant contain the evilJan 27 21:03
gde33if the evil cant manifest it cant run the placeJan 27 21:03
MinceRit willJan 27 21:03
MinceRit's everywhereJan 27 21:03
gde33we know that empathic people feel the pain of othersJan 27 21:04
MinceRand people are trying hard to make it worseJan 27 21:04
gde33I wouldnt mind making that a requirement for politiciansJan 27 21:04
MinceRhow would you enforce it?Jan 27 21:04
gde33just eliminate the psychopathsJan 27 21:04
MinceRhow would you do that?Jan 27 21:04
gde33with brainscans and other testsJan 27 21:04
MinceRpsychopathy is probably the most difficult kind of mental disorder to diagnose objectivelyJan 27 21:05
gde33we dont need objectivityJan 27 21:05
MinceRpart of it is that the psychopath tries to hide their own disorderJan 27 21:05
gde33we need certaintyJan 27 21:05
MinceRwe do need objectivityJan 27 21:05
gde33empathic people get seizurs when you show them choped up bodies on a monitorJan 27 21:05
MinceRwithout objectivity, you get people deciding who gets whatJan 27 21:05
MinceRand corruptionJan 27 21:05
gde33if you can just sit there without any emotion you are not the man for the jobJan 27 21:05
MinceRsame system as before, maybe with a few more levelsJan 27 21:05
MinceRi doubt that everyone who's desensitized to images of mutilated bodies is a psychopathJan 27 21:06
gde33if you have an amount of people some will test obviously empathic, some will test obviously psychopatic and some will test average.Jan 27 21:06
MinceRi'm pretty sure it wasn't on any of the checklists i've seenJan 27 21:07
gde33I dont think it is a sexy idea to put the clear psychopath in powerJan 27 21:07
MinceRi'm pretty sure Cleckley didn't mention it in Mask of Sanity :>Jan 27 21:07
gde33he doesn't have what it takesJan 27 21:07
MinceRhe'll speak to the people and make them believe that he does have what it takesJan 27 21:07
gde33We could argue about average people but the cases where it is all to obvious should be eliminated.Jan 27 21:07
MinceRalso, tests can be corruptedJan 27 21:07
gde33these are people who dont have activity in that part of their brainJan 27 21:07
gde33you are setting up shop for warsJan 27 21:08
MinceRif the people doing the test aren't willing to lie about the results, the people in power will replace themJan 27 21:08
gde33you can certainly have a few cases where it isn't easy to get a good ratingJan 27 21:08
gde33just publish the data?Jan 27 21:08
MinceRalso, i'm pretty sure a psychopath could fake discomfortJan 27 21:08
gde33if you want to be a public figure, wouldnt you want to know this about yourself?Jan 27 21:09
gde33to what extend you are faking empathy?Jan 27 21:09
MinceRthey could tamper the data before publishing itJan 27 21:09
gde33it wont make you less of a personJan 27 21:09
gde33do you think a truly empathic person could just start a war for proffit?Jan 27 21:10
gde33personally, if you come to my desk to suggest such a thing I might just have to end youJan 27 21:10
gde33lolJan 27 21:10
MinceRno, i think a psychopath could easily fake being empathicJan 27 21:10
MinceRfor your testJan 27 21:10
gde33he cantJan 27 21:10
MinceRthen they get into power and do whatever they wanted to do all alongJan 27 21:10
gde33the biological effect is to strongJan 27 21:10
MinceRwhile faking whatever emotions they needJan 27 21:10
gde33people feel as if it is their finger being cut when looking at itJan 27 21:10
MinceRread Mask of Sanity :>Jan 27 21:11
gde33there is no evidence such tests can be faked but still it would add a layer of securityJan 27 21:11
MinceRno, it wouldn'tJan 27 21:11
MinceRit would merely add more hooks for corruptionJan 27 21:11
MinceRand more chances to attack people the oligarchy doesn't want in powerJan 27 21:11

MinceRfrom the outsideJan 27 21:12
gde33or do you doubt there are such cases?Jan 27 21:12
MinceRalso, by the very nature of such testing there would be a small number of people making a decisionJan 27 21:13
MinceRwhich would be easily subvertedJan 27 21:13
gde33the information could just be presented to the voterJan 27 21:13
MinceRthe voter is not a trained psychiatristJan 27 21:13
gde33you are showing empathy to people who dont know what it meansJan 27 21:13
gde33why would you bother with that?Jan 27 21:13
MinceRand any discrepancy could be explained as a different interpretation of the dataJan 27 21:13
gde33do you think they will aperciate it?Jan 27 21:13
MinceRpoliticians already do thatJan 27 21:14
gde33they will think of it as your weaknessJan 27 21:14
MinceRthey'll present the data and their decisionJan 27 21:14
MinceRand claim that the decision is based on the dataJan 27 21:14
gde33sureJan 27 21:14
MinceRand another expert will easily determined that the decision is bogusJan 27 21:14
gde33you can have the tests done independentlyJan 27 21:14
MinceRwhile the ones on the politician's side will agree with it, no matter whatJan 27 21:15
gde33the other expert deserves a fair hearingJan 27 21:15
MinceRso, how many tests will decide if someone gets to run for office or not?Jan 27 21:15
MinceRand how?Jan 27 21:15
gde33I'm still talking about the extreme cases where people have pretty much reverted to using nothing but their lizard brainJan 27 21:15

MinceRwhoever hands out the diploma decides who gets to voteJan 27 21:17
gde33gtfo?Jan 27 21:17
MinceRand so they'll be corrupted to decide the corruptor's voters are eligible, others aren'tJan 27 21:17
gde33you just say that because you failed for the testJan 27 21:18
MinceRyeah, that's what the corruptor will sayJan 27 21:18

gde33then at least our downfall will be well organisedJan 27 21:37
gde33then we increase the complexity of the voting processJan 27 21:38
MinceRand how would you do that?Jan 27 21:38
gde33excluding even more peopleJan 27 21:38
MinceRand how will increased complexity work?Jan 27 21:38
gde33voting more often on actual topicsJan 27 21:38
gde33involvement in decision makingJan 27 21:39
MinceRmost people can't be botheredJan 27 21:39
MinceRthey already vote randomlyJan 27 21:39
gde33we can compensate them for not participatingJan 27 21:39
gde33they can always learn the nesasary stuff and join usJan 27 21:39
gde33until they do they will just have to trust usJan 27 21:40
gde33one way or annotherJan 27 21:40
MinceRthey can't and they don't care toJan 27 21:40
gde33I dont see the problem with people who dont careJan 27 21:40
MinceRand if you devise a system to confirm that they've learned, that system will be compromisedJan 27 21:40
gde33cant we respect that?Jan 27 21:40
MinceRpeople who don't care do a lot of damageJan 27 21:40
gde33I'm looking for basic knowledgeJan 27 21:40
MinceRpeople who don't care to think a bit voted hungary into a dictatorshipJan 27 21:41
MinceRpeople who don't care to thing a bit keep the usa in its two-party systemJan 27 21:41
gde33we can eliminate most voters with the requirement of knowing which parties they can chose from.Jan 27 21:41
MinceRprobably same in the ukJan 27 21:41
MinceRnot sure how that would work, considering that parties get nominated before the electionJan 27 21:41
MinceRand there are a lot of parties who try to get nominatedJan 27 21:42
gde33we can require basic knowledge of each optionJan 27 21:42
MinceRagain, someone will decide what the right answers areJan 27 21:42
gde33without knowledge of what the choices are your choice cant be considered as valauble as the next guyJan 27 21:42
MinceRand someone will tell the voters on their side what the right answers areJan 27 21:42
gde33at first the test should be kintergarden levelJan 27 21:43
gde33seriouslyJan 27 21:43
gde33most voters only know the names of the top 3 optionsJan 27 21:43
MinceRalso, people will try to smear your test with all sorts of false stuff too, to fight itJan 27 21:43
gde33thats fairJan 27 21:44
gde33it deserves to be attackedJan 27 21:44
MinceRand it won't be introduced anywhereJan 27 21:44
gde33for reasons you described earlierJan 27 21:44
MinceRunless the oligarchs want it toJan 27 21:44
MinceRbut then they'll shape it to their needsJan 27 21:44
gde33the idea is not at a stage where it can be implmenetedJan 27 21:44
gde33but it is intersting to talk with people who argue they want to vote but they dont want to bother knowing anythingJan 27 21:45
gde33if you ask them how we are going to get it right they say ehheheheJan 27 21:45
gde33technically the correct responseJan 27 21:46
gde33If such a system would be taken over it would still allow for greater citizen participation?Jan 27 21:49
MinceRit would seem to me that it would allow for less citizen participationJan 27 21:49
MinceRseeing how it's all about restricting who gets to participateJan 27 21:49
gde33smaller numbers but more influence?Jan 27 21:49
MinceRwell, those are connectedJan 27 21:50
gde33the test could be designed to eliminate a fixed percentage of votersJan 27 21:50
MinceRin the extreme, you have one citizen participating, the PatricianJan 27 21:50
MinceRhe is the Man, he has the Vote.Jan 27 21:50

MinceRso we won't avoid it at allJan 27 21:56
gde33I liked Chavez TV showJan 27 22:02
gde33who knows, maybe we could do a telepresence political modelJan 27 22:02
gde33cybernetic politicians with advanced teleroboticsJan 27 22:04

DaemonFC"We didn't make it for Indians, WE MADE IT FOR WESTERNERS *WHO CAN AFFORD IT*".Jan 28 00:26
DaemonFC(Emphasis is mine)Jan 28 00:26
DaemonFCIn other words, not even all westerners, only the very rich ones. And I'm sure that even post-Obamacare, insurance companies will figure out some way to "discourage" customers that cost them $5,750 a month in drugs alone. People that are that sick are the reason Medicare and Medicaid exist. They're made a burden of the public because private insurers don't want those customers, only relatively healthy ones. That's why those programs are allowed Jan 28 00:26
DaemonFCto exist. It's privatized profits and socialized losses. Lemon Socialism.Jan 28 00:26
DaemonFCI think it's wonderful that India has used the force majeure of its national government against foreign predatory drug companies, to help cancer and HIV patients.Jan 28 00:26

schestowitz__Entertainment is another word for a palliative against one's disatisfaction with oneself.

schestowitz__My wife and I don't watch TV. I gave away my last set about a decade ago, and I've hardly missed a thing.

iophkcoolJan 28 13:59
schestowitz__I have lots planned for yesterday, but Seagate drive arrive and it was as broken as the one it replacedJan 28 14:00
schestowitz__Burned 4 hours of my time, killed my appetiate, and even ruined my morningJan 28 14:00
schestowitz__I wonder if a company can be held legally liable for replacing faulty with faulty under "warrany"Jan 28 14:00
schestowitz__Just a total waste of time, would be better to use the time to just buy a new driveJan 28 14:01
iophkI've heard that some send refurbished drives as warranty replacements.Jan 28 14:01
iophkHow long was the warranty? 1,2,5 years?Jan 28 14:01
schestowitz__Tonight I need to set up NRPE on dozens of Debian servers, then I can post lots of good articles again, can pick up pace again this year, and am getting fibre next month...Jan 28 14:01
schestowitz__2 years Jan 28 14:01
schestowitz__the new drive sort of hangs up randomlyJan 28 14:02
schestowitz__Sometimes while formattingJan 28 14:02
iophkThere was a recent report rating Seagate as very low on reliabi.lityJan 28 14:02
iophkHitachi was best in the report.Jan 28 14:02
schestowitz__I need to focus on TuxMachiens migration, so I'll put off any futher work on the drive. I will do a thorough fsck thius weekend and use it to prove they sent me garbageJan 28 14:02
schestowitz__Segates's official account in twitter already stepped in for damage controlJan 28 14:03
schestowitz__I got Hitachi as a replacement for a bad laptop drive in my CompaqJan 28 14:03
schestowitz__IIRC it lasted for many yearsJan 28 14:03
schestowitz__When I tried it in 2001, around 10 years later, I think it did get some inode issues (under DSL), but that was the last time I played with that old laptop (32 MB of RAM)Jan 28 14:04
schestowitz__Hitachi=IBMJan 28 14:04
schestowitz__Is that something that's in China's hands now too?Jan 28 14:04
schestowitz__IBM makes me think, maybe the future realy is IT staff losing jobs to China (the Symphony team is largely Chinese) and China is going to just buy or overrise US brandsJan 28 14:05
schestowitz__And then there's IndiaJan 28 14:05
schestowitz__China, reportedly, is now getting more involved in software, just like IndiaJan 28 14:06
schestowitz__huiman resources (time) are cheap thereJan 28 14:06
iophkTheir R&D may not be so good but then the US has been cutting and cutting R&D for years now.Jan 28 14:06
schestowitz__They can do extreme programming, like having 3 people working on a program at once, spotting issues like they do in factoriesJan 28 14:06
schestowitz__My siuster works with Chinese programmers who are in GE, and she's says they're not so good.... yet GE has been dropping US workers and hiring in China for a whileJan 28 14:07
schestowitz__My brother's old company did the same with India, and some said that the cost of fixing their programming mistakes (I actually think they have fantastic programmers) is higher than the savings of outsourcing the jobJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Mass production paradigm is being ytested in s/w nowJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__See MicrosoftJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Around Vista they send the programming to IndiaJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Same with AdobeJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__And look what happenedJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Saved money on wages, but the software is not necessarily better, to say the leastJan 28 14:09
schestowitz__It's good for managers, perhaps, but even that's doubtab;eJan 28 14:09
iophkM$ has never had good quality though.  And I can't recall when Adobe last was good.Jan 28 14:09
schestowitz__Class war is now also a war t devalue IT pros, driving their wages down, increasing working hours, stress, etc.Jan 28 14:10
schestowitz__Automation experts too are no longer valuedJan 28 14:10
schestowitz__Like outsourcing the outsiurcersJan 28 14:10
schestowitz__Eventually the outsourcers too will see themselves replaced by thiose whom they promoteJan 28 14:10
schestowitz__FOSS is one way to reduce costsJan 28 14:10
iophkSaves effort, too.Jan 28 14:11
schestowitz__and then sort of justify the expense of hiring expensive staffJan 28 14:11
schestowitz__Like people who manage 1000 servers at onceJan 28 14:11
schestowitz__with no costs associated with the automation (puppet, nagios, etc.) involvesJan 28 14:11

schestowitz__I wonder if i should be careful with the photos of drone victimsJan 28 14:24
schestowitz__They could use that as an excuse for blocking. I never had someone reporting to me that s/he had been blocked, not even in censorship-happy nationsJan 28 14:24
iophkIt was interesting that the pro-standards people were clustered around certain companies and blocking that one company could block directly / indirectly the sites.  It let up hours after the vote.Jan 28 14:25

schestowitz_bed2That's one of the reasons your E17 desktop seems so smooth. If you turn on Kmail, that effect will go away.Jan 28 16:05
schestowitz_bed2KDE, to their credit, is working to make that search less obnoxious but I don't see how it can work. The only time I used Nepomuk was when Kmail demanded it for search. Even though I limited it to my email, it consumed 50 to 100% of my cpu for a week or two. It finally calmed down.Jan 28 16:05
schestowitz_bed2The first and only time I tried to actually search my email using the fancy database, it deleted all of my email. The damn thing froze as soon as I pressed the search button. I waited for it to do what it wanted and was horrified to see that everything had been erased.Jan 28 16:05
schestowitz_bed2Those two things, depending on database for core functions and risk of complete email loss, are why I'm going to use Trinity for my email. Wheezy has the last version of Kmail that I'd recommend to anyone, so I recommend other email clients to new users now.Jan 28 16:05

DaemonFCApparently, the iBeacon spyware was introduced in iOS 7, but the hardware to enable it has been in all iPhones and dormant since iPhone 4.Jan 28 20:20
DaemonFCIf you walk into a store and start getting alerts from that store on your iPhone, that's why. But it's just as likely to be used silently to track where you are in their store, accurate to within a couple of inches, so that they can profile how the customer shops in their stores and design layouts that get people to buy more stuff they don't need.Jan 28 20:20
DaemonFCiBeacon meets the entire definition of spyware. It's something that the user wouldn't approve of, that leaks out personal information to untrusted third parties, and it can't be shut off or removed, even when you know about it. Jan 28 20:20

schestowitz_bed2"Sorry, but a lot of this still doesn't make sense to me. This concludes with "If you are going to use a US based search engine, it might as well be Google." which is absolutely insane if you actually read the article. All of the reasons stated for not using DDG are equally applicable to Google so why use them as an argument against DDG and to use Google? It may be unfair to gain users through exploiting NSA stories, but Google isJan 29 16:04

schestowitz_bed2If you are going to let yourself be spied on, you might as well get something out of it.

schestowitz_bed2I wish that I knew of an honest alternative that gave excellent results. That is changing through copyright/DMCA takedown censorship and other pressures, but at the time of writing, it was true. I wish that I knew if TOR or proxies would protect your privacy but I don't.

TechrightsBot-trtruth-out.org | Costs of Privatization Hidden in Plain Sight  [ http://ur1.ca/gizxt ]Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCIndiana is also being robbed by the company that Mitch Daniels sold the toll roads to. He gave them a 75 year contract in 2006, all of the money is gone, and the company is claiming that Indiana owes it money because it is getting less toll road fees than it thought it would when it signed the contract.Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCEven without that, they would make more money in the 75 years than they paid for the contract.Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCPrivatization is often proposed by right-wing politicians who claim that it will save money. The companies that get the contracts almost never run things cheaper than the state was. The first thing that the toll road company did in Indiana was jack up the toll and stop maintaining the roads. They're full of potholes now, and the fee for driving on them has doubled.Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCIndiana's Republicans passed a law that gives them a pass to drive on the toll road for free. Many Indiana House and Senate Democrats refused to use the pass, and kept paying the toll. Jan 29 22:49

schestowitz__To me it's a no-brainer: Tuxera's been selling this driver for years now, it's based on Brad Boyer's source code, they got caught (thanks to Asus). We've got a proof, that they've been selling a product which is a 90% result of hard work of people from our community.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__I believe It is our common job to keep things right and fair.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__I do feel for Samsung being caught between two trains of M$'s patents and Linux' free license. But the fact that they've been selling a product based on code from Linux tree, for years, and not returning any money they literally stole from honest developers who contributed their free time to support FOSS and GPL, makes me feel quite bad. They didn't have to do that, but nobody forced them to use the code from the vfat driver as a Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__base. In the end they didn't pay any fines, they ended up being heroes by open-sourcing the driver.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__I am 100% sure it is exactly the same case this time, except there were no patents involved. It never will be neither fair in case with exFat nor in case with HFS+ even if they give up the source to the product they most likely originally stole from Brad. None of us have money for a lawyer to sue violators of GPL and companies seem to be happy to abuse this fact.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__They won't pay anybody for stealing the product, even though they made a fortune out of it.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__I have a small question:Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__Let's imagine for a second they haven't used Brad's GPL'd source as a base for their product, but still sold an HFS+ driver written from scratch under GPL (even a single copy)...Jan 30 13:13

TechrightsBot-tr@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: Companies that use terms like "community manager" reveal their real attitude towards volunteers. Say "coordinator" or "leader", not managerJan 30 19:24
schestowitz__"Jan 30 19:24
schestowitz__Very true. Most of the community managers I've dealt with were less interested in listening and understanding than they were with having me swallow a set of talking points. They waste everyone's time.Jan 30 19:24
schestowitz__After some thought, I like the term community representative and think that it's a legitimate thing to do. Communications manager, even that sounds like perception management. I agree with other people here that "leader" and "coordinator" also imply control or manipulation. Representative is an honest term and implies two way communication representing the company to the community and the community to the company. That's a valid and Jan 30 19:24

schestowitz__iophk: hiJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__morning, MinceRJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__Just a quick questionJan 31 10:41
iophksureJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__say you have site A with DNS pointing to XJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__and site B with DNS pointing to YJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__when you move DNS from X to YJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__can you expect no downtime?Jan 31 10:42
iophkI think so, butJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__i see requests served OK, but it seems like some machines (esp. in our house) still go nowhere when looking up the addressJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__I think that nameserver migrations without downtimes are sometimes like that, but I want to be sure before we leave the house for 5 hoursJan 31 10:43
iophkit looks like also a matter of changing authoritative name serversJan 31 10:43
schestowitz__on the same network, the tablet reaches the old serverJan 31 10:43
schestowitz__And the phone and laptop reach nowhereJan 31 10:43
iophkIt may be your cacheJan 31 10:44
iophkOn two networks, I get the new ip for the hostnameJan 31 10:44
iophklemme check one more...Jan 31 10:45
schestowitz__gotchaJan 31 10:45
schestowitz__Is this host-level cache like /etc/hosts?Jan 31 10:45
schestowitz__Becfuse changing broewsers has no effectJan 31 10:45
schestowitz__Wher eis DNS cache?Jan 31 10:45
iophkThe third one is ok.Jan 31 10:46
schestowitz__maybeit'a cached at the hubJan 31 10:46
iophkI'm not sure how it is all cached, if it is still looking for the old name server it will still get the old address.Jan 31 10:46
iophkWhich nameserver to use might be cachedJan 31 10:47
schestowitz__the problem is. it does not even connect to the old server, escept the tabletJan 31 10:47
schestowitz__it accesses the old siteJan 31 10:47
schestowitz__the others get nowhereJan 31 10:47
iophkDid you get the old registrar to drop the name?Jan 31 10:48
schestowitz__nope. not afaikJan 31 10:48
schestowitz__Maybe it checks the IP against the DNS and finds a mismatcxh or somethingJan 31 10:49
schestowitz__But it does seem to be working for everyone (so far as I know) except usJan 31 10:49
iophkmight be two registrars fighting it out for the authoritative answerJan 31 10:49
schestowitz__I'll try my web proxyJan 31 10:49
iophkwhat about setting the old registrar to point to the new, static ip?Jan 31 10:49
schestowitz__I don't know how to change registrars details in that wayJan 31 10:50
iophkI'm getting the new ip on a 4th net, too.Jan 31 10:51

*MinceR suggests remote detonation feature as wellJan 31 22:20
gde33that was one of my many proposals to the EUJan 31 22:22
gde33they did god know howmany of them, almost as if I wrote the whole agendaJan 31 22:22
gde33lmaoJan 31 22:22
MinceR:>Jan 31 22:22
gde33lets not do car chases and stop carsJan 31 22:22
gde33if you dont like it we can run you over or something equally appropriateJan 31 22:23
MinceRlet's be very surprised when we find out that the primary targets of this will disable the "feature" in their carsJan 31 22:23
gde33smashed by a trainJan 31 22:23
gde33lolJan 31 22:23
gde33not as easy as you thinkJan 31 22:23
MinceRalso let's be very surprised when others exploit the feature against drivers and kill them or rob themJan 31 22:23
MinceRor bothJan 31 22:23
MinceRdoesn't seem to difficult -- remove, disconnect or isolate the antenna that receives the commandJan 31 22:23
gde33then you are going to use the road but ohh it is full of carsJan 31 22:24
gde33what a bummerJan 31 22:24
gde33lolJan 31 22:24
gde33MinceR: it will be annoying, that is the pointJan 31 22:26
MinceRno, the point is that it will kill people they didn't want to keepJan 31 22:26
MinceRs/keep/kill/Jan 31 22:26
MinceRand that it will be exploited against peopleJan 31 22:27
gde33sure it willJan 31 22:27
MinceRbecause a bunch of fascist idiots never think anything throughJan 31 22:27
MinceRor they just don't careJan 31 22:27
MinceRit's not their life that's threatened after allJan 31 22:27
MinceR(or so they think)Jan 31 22:27
gde33you just need a transportation system that worksJan 31 22:28
gde33switching off the machines is part of thatJan 31 22:28
MinceRthat's what the ignition key/switch is forJan 31 22:28
gde33I also proposed a speed limiterJan 31 22:29
MinceRanother great ideaJan 31 22:29
MinceRit's not like some accidents could be avoided by speeding away from the source of the dangerJan 31 22:29
gde33people have this idea that people working on roads have to get killed regularlyJan 31 22:29
MinceR(and who cares anyway)Jan 31 22:29
MinceRwell, that explains these half-baked ideas, thenJan 31 22:29
gde33the max speed outside my house is 5 km/h there are no sidewalksJan 31 22:30
gde33it even use to have speed bumpsJan 31 22:30
gde33hahJan 31 22:30
MinceRi'm sure they saved lots of money with no sidewalksJan 31 22:31
MinceRsidewalks are expensive stuff!Jan 31 22:31
gde33it is in the way the blocks are buildJan 31 22:31
MinceRyes, "badly"Jan 31 22:31
gde33basically it is one big sidewalkJan 31 22:31
gde33cars are suppose to drive walking speed to the parkingJan 31 22:31
MinceRwhat are cars doing on it then?Jan 31 22:31
MinceRcars don't belong on the sidewalk.Jan 31 22:31
gde33sure, but there are other areas with other speed limits that dont work eitherJan 31 22:32
gde33the max is 120 on the highway, people drive 140Jan 31 22:32
gde33you are very annoying if you drive 120Jan 31 22:32
MinceRmost people can't handle drivingJan 31 22:32
MinceRthose who can't do it shouldn't be allowed toJan 31 22:32
gde33then the whole train goes in front of the cameraJan 31 22:32
gde33and they all get ticketsJan 31 22:32
gde33it's a nonsense systemJan 31 22:33
MinceRlike, if they can't learn how to keep distance, they shouldn't get to driveJan 31 22:33
MinceRinstead of endangering meJan 31 22:33
*yang has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)Jan 31 22:33

MinceRif they can't learn how to use turn signals, they probably can't learn most of other things eitherJan 31 22:33
MinceRso, again, don't let them driveJan 31 22:33
gde33drive max speed the whole timeJan 31 22:33
gde33corners to!Jan 31 22:33
gde33if the traffic light is red, the car slows downJan 31 22:33
gde33not maybeJan 31 22:34
gde33we are not just going to make itJan 31 22:34

gde33hahaJan 31 22:35
MinceRyou're not making senseJan 31 22:36
gde33we need to make a good system for themJan 31 22:36
gde33so that they can drive places without issuesJan 31 22:36
MinceRwe have one, it's called public transportJan 31 22:36

gde33public transport doesn't workJan 31 22:36

MinceRand neither does the "i'll just push a few buttons randomly here on the remote control for that guy's car while he thinks he's driving it lol"Jan 31 22:37

gde33I'm just not going to propose those to the EUJan 31 22:37
gde33they wouldnt understandJan 31 22:37
MinceRindeedJan 31 22:37
MinceRhungary is a pretty good example of how a public transport shouldn't and can't work, thoughJan 31 22:38
gde33the point is that we already have robot cars hereJan 31 22:38
gde33many of themJan 31 22:38
gde33since the 80'sJan 31 22:38
MinceRin special environments, yesJan 31 22:38
MinceRnot on general roadsJan 31 22:38
gde33it gets increasingly silly to have people crash themselves into annother for the greater good of transportation lolJan 31 22:38
MinceRnot mixed with other modes of transportJan 31 22:38
gde33sure they areJan 31 22:38
MinceRwhere?Jan 31 22:39
gde33they look like trucks with 2 behindsJan 31 22:39

gde33it is mostly pilots but it's done arround the worldJan 31 22:39
MinceRairlines are very differentJan 31 22:40
MinceRwith all the space, you can offset them a lot more from each other (lanes too)Jan 31 22:40

DaemonFCMicrosoft has sued a computer store that was selling refurbished laptops that came with a Windows Vista license, which had been re-imaged with the same version of Windows Vista that they came with.Feb 01 02:44
TechrightsBot-trwww.press-citizen.com | NO TITLE  [ http://ur1.ca/gjhgg ]Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCMicrosoft claims that exercising your rights under the First Sale Doctrine is "counterfeiting software".Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCIn other words, everyone that is selling their old computer and keeps Windows on it for the next owner is doing the same thing that this company did. Microsoft says you have no right to do that, which flies in the face of Supreme Court precedent. (It's the same as selling a used book or a used CD, which is totally legal.)Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCI'm not suggesting that it's good to give someone else a copy of Windows.Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCIt's better to give them software that respects their freedom, such as GNU/Linux. Nobody has ever been sued for "counterfeiting" GNU/Linux, because software counterfeiting is impossible, and everyone has the guaranteed right to share it under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

DaemonFCMicrosoft produces rubbish products and is a has-been dying company. This is one of their last gasps of frustration. If MS wins, I hope that more people switch to a Mac for their new computer. Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCApple software has most of the same problems regarding lack of user freedoms.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCThey haven't sued anyone for reselling their Mac that I am aware of, but they wouldn't need to. Software is kind of a hook for them to sell their expensive computers in the first place. Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFC Patricia says:Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCApple gives away its OS for free these days - you need to keep up. Feb 01 03:11

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCThey give it away gratis at the moment, but it does not give its users freedom.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCVista 8.1 was also gratis, but did not give users freedom.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCIn fact, every new version of either OS takes more freedom away from the user. Feb 01 03:11
schestowitz__Not here, not yet, although the Tories try to make it soFeb 01 03:11
DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCSo, why would I care about Microsoft threatening a company for distributing its software?Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCWell, first, it threatens everyone who has purchased a license to use anything that is bound by copyright.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCSecondly, it would not mean fewer copies of Windows in existence. Every user and company would simply stop reselling existing licenses, and pay Microsoft even more money for new licenses, which is worse than simply reselling an existing license, which would give them even more money to attack users and their freedom with more malicious products.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCIt would be better if every copy of Windows was destroyed, but giving them more money for new licenses just makes two problems where there was only one problem before. It's counterproductive. Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCerr, because it wouldFeb 01 03:12
DaemonFCKeep an eye on this case. It threatens the entire first sale doctrine.Feb 01 03:14
DaemonFCAlmost every time you give this Supreme Court another chance to fuck people over, it takes it.Feb 01 03:14
DaemonFCschestowitz__: Yeah. I had good insurance before I turned 18.Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCAt the time, there was no PPACA, so you just lost your parents health insurance when you turned 18.Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCIt's 26 now.Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCAnyway, with a few minutes left on the clock, I hurried up and got a whole bunch of things taken care of.Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCWithin a year, I had sinus surgery, a tonsillectomy, all my wisdom teeth removed, etc. Feb 01 03:16
DaemonFCI actually got all my wisdom teeth removed and then lost my dental AND heath insurance the very next day.Feb 01 03:16
DaemonFC*healthFeb 01 03:16
DaemonFCAnd I was lucky I could get in at the last minute, because 12 years ago, it cost over $2,500 to get your wisdom teeth removed.Feb 01 03:17
DaemonFCThey weren't causing me a problem, yet, but I hurried up and got it done because there was no telling when it would be a problem and where I was going to find $2,500 at.Feb 01 03:18
DaemonFCThe pain medication they gave me didn't work, and the dentist would not speak to me, or call in a new prescription, because I was no longer insured.Feb 01 03:19
DaemonFCSo I basically spent the next week in terrible pain because I had no insurance and was recovering from surgery.Feb 01 03:19

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 22:26
DaemonFCFirst of all, their "Law of Similars" is ridiculous pseudo-scientific garbage. It makes a ridiculous claim that water has a "memory" of everything it has been exposed to, that the effect on the human body of a substance is greater the more diluted it is, and that the substance in question will cure diseases that cause similar symptoms of the substance that is claimed to be the active ingredient in the homeopathic solution. (The hair of the dog Feb 01 22:26
DaemonFCthat bit you?)/Feb 01 22:26
DaemonFCSecondly, there's no way to achieve the dilutions that they claim. One duck liver and heart would be more than enough to make all of the "Oscillococcinum" sold in the world (supposedly a flu remedy), and it would require more than 100 times more water than exists on the planet Earth to dilute it to the claimed dilution.Feb 01 22:26
DaemonFCThird, and purely ironic, the biggest company behind "homeopathic remedies" is a French company called Boiron, which rhymes with "Moron".Feb 01 22:26
DaemonFCEven though homeopathy is pseudo-scientific crap, it has a large base of followers, and you can find their little bottles of water and placebo pills at your local Walgreens. It's a multi-billion dollar per year business. Feb 01 22:26
DaemonFCAnd on that note, I'm going to take a leak. Please enjoy drinking an 8C dilution of my urine. I hope it's refreshing.Feb 01 22:26

DaemonFCYeah, it's a waste of money.Feb 01 22:46
DaemonFCIt's worse because you're not just wasting money, you're using placebo as an alternative to seeking medical attention.Feb 01 22:47

DaemonFCRomney said he was frugal and in touch with American voters because he compacted his trash to save $5 a month and only uses gratis apps on his $800 iBad.Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCPerhaps he also has a toothpaste squeezer in his bathroom. The world might never know.Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCI bet he got a great deal on his latest 11,000 square foot house, his several luxury cars, the car elevator... Maybe he even shops at Mens Wearhouse for his suits. You know that if you buy an $800 suite there, that sometimes they give you an extra one for only $100?Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCI bet he has plenty of tips for how people earning $8 an hour and no health insurance can live the high life. They just have to work even harder and eventually they'll "get what they deserve".Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCIn other words, perhaps they will be working for $8.05 an hour this time next year if they behave. Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCerrr, suitFeb 01 23:53

schestowitz_bed2"Tanx Roy, I have just installed mageia 3 in my nephew's laptop, an old Dell precision notebook, so I'm not happy to view this fast upgrade trend. In my opinion the cycles release could be more time long. One or one and half year are too much short. Ok the Mageia is a cutting-edge distribution but I like a more LTS version. Bye the way Mageia rulezzz :)"Jan 26 16:26

gde33I'm trying to look from the perspective of content creatorsJan 27 09:29
gde33if there is no reward they wont create anythingJan 27 09:29
iophkI know.  The net has been such a desert.  Not even one business uses it yet. Jan 27 09:30
gde33it might just be great if you had to pay for thingsJan 27 09:30
iophkMaybe it will be really great if the carriers can charge for both ends of the connection instead of just the one.Jan 27 09:30
gde33it seems nesasaryJan 27 09:31
iophkAnd thus kill the goose that has been laying the golden eggs.Jan 27 09:31

gde33I'm not so sure about thatJan 27 09:32
iophkFalse dichotomy.  The net, with net neutrality, has made a lot of money for a lot of people and their businesses.  Jan 27 09:32
gde33I think people who make it their goal not to earn money are never going to have the influence they seekJan 27 09:32
iophkThere's probably precious few small businesses without a web presence.Jan 27 09:32
iophkAnything bigger has a serious web site.Jan 27 09:33
gde33it isn't a system that favors the little guy at allJan 27 09:33
gde33it favors the big and fat Jan 27 09:33
iophkEliminating net neutrality will eliminate the little guy all together.Jan 27 09:33
gde33nonsenseJan 27 09:33
iophkToo many fees.Jan 27 09:33

gde33my curiosity was triggered by it not being such a bad idea as it seemed at firstJan 27 09:42
iophkNothing stops you for putting up a paywall on your site.Jan 27 09:42
gde33lots of things stop me from doing thatJan 27 09:42
gde33how would you like to pay?Jan 27 09:43
iophkOffer several options.Jan 27 09:43
gde33howabout a contract with your service providerJan 27 09:43
iophkNo ISPs that I know of offer gated communities in that way.Jan 27 09:44
iophkYou need to set up your own paywall..Jan 27 09:44

gde33some sort of system that makes it worth to create contentJan 27 09:49
iophkDefine content.Jan 27 09:49
gde33say you sit yourself down and write a bookJan 27 09:49
gde33now you are going to publish it on the internetJan 27 09:50
iophkSo far the net is empty with no info at all out there.  Not even one service or product yet.  We've got all this connectivity and waiting with no results yet...Jan 27 09:50
gde33now you need multinationals because that is net neutralityJan 27 09:50
gde33writing for the enemyJan 27 09:50
gde33lolJan 27 09:50
iophkPublish via a publisher.  There are many to choose from.  It can be a small publisher.Jan 27 09:50
gde33it wont workJan 27 09:50
gde33it just doesnt workJan 27 09:51
iophkNope. No e-books have happened yet.  We're still waiting for them.Jan 27 09:51
MinceRyeah, it's not like people are making money by selling booksJan 27 09:51
MinceRright nowJan 27 09:51
gde33it doesnt work because the deal doesn't depend on the quality of the workJan 27 09:51
MinceRin the model you propose, it would depend a lot less on the quality of the workJan 27 09:51
MinceRit would depend only on which isp manages to get a monopoly where you liveJan 27 09:52
gde33not that I dont apperciate the crusade against the monopoly but we seem to have lost that war alreadyJan 27 09:52
MinceRso let's give up and hand everything else to the winners, too?Jan 27 09:53
gde33if you want a stable system you have to accept a bit of bad works that go unpunishedJan 27 09:53

gde33MinceR: not at allJan 27 09:54
iophkgde33: name one site that is not paid for alreadyJan 27 09:54
gde33just look at all perspectives, apperciate the view, then try find something betterJan 27 09:54
gde33I could most likely still make a popular website, but when I did I hated the attention.Jan 27 09:55
gde33you need thousands of people, then you still earn nothing.Jan 27 09:55
gde33you have to plaster the pages with advertisement to get tiny revenue :PJan 27 09:56
iophkThen you need a better business plan...Jan 27 09:56
gde33the web needs oneJan 27 09:56
gde33the content creator should be judged by his content, now how he plays the search engine lottoJan 27 09:56
MinceRyour scheme would merely force users to pay whoever wins the search engine lotteryJan 27 09:57
gde33not the userJan 27 09:57
MinceRor whoever diverts the user's browser using whatever exploit worksJan 27 09:57
gde33the packages should be tailored just like television stationsJan 27 09:58
gde33just like you get a bunch of magazinesJan 27 09:58
gde33because the web is so big you can do huge numbers of themJan 27 09:58
iophkI see.  The net is too open and the cable tv model is more appropriate, you say.Jan 27 09:58
gde33it has it's advantagesJan 27 09:59
DaemonFCI think that DRM might be losing more sales for them than it's worth.Jan 27 09:59
iophkI haven't seen any.  Most I've seen myself and heard from others is that the cable tv model, with bundling, is a liability.Jan 27 09:59
iophkDRM does cost sales.Jan 27 09:59
MinceR105810 < gde33> the packages should be tailored just like television stationsJan 27 10:00
gde33we would get ourselves the FOSS package and read delicious FOSS blogs the whole monthJan 27 10:00
MinceRso, you get a bunch of sites your isp happens to likeJan 27 10:00
MinceRnot the ones you wantJan 27 10:00
MinceRthat's a great business model, yeahJan 27 10:00
DaemonFCMinceR: Right. I remember asking Comcast repeatedly to carry LOGO.Jan 27 10:00
gde33whoever wants to make the selectionJan 27 10:00
MinceRif you live in a fantasy where every isp likes your site that muchJan 27 10:00
DaemonFCThey finally did, over two years later.Jan 27 10:00
iophkResearch databases also have that model.  High-impact journals are spread across several bundles so that the fees to get all of them are outrageous to impossible.Jan 27 10:01
gde33you still get the normal internetJan 27 10:01
MinceRyeah, if crippled is "normal"Jan 27 10:01
gde33we just get extra stuff behind a paywallJan 27 10:01

MinceRthen don't do anythingJan 27 10:02
DaemonFCGood luck getting people to pay for what they will gladly take for free right now.Jan 27 10:02
gde33the FOSS subscription will give you access to a web entirely without people who didn't buy that subscriptionJan 27 10:02
DaemonFCThey need to monetize the "piracy" somehow.Jan 27 10:02
gde33that is the added valueJan 27 10:02
gde33finally a whole web with nothing but apple usersJan 27 10:03

gde33[17:03:33] <schestowitz_bed2> [09:31] <iophk> I know.  The net has been such a desert.  Not even one business uses it yet. :-)Jan 27 19:15
gde33[17:03:38] <schestowitz_bed2> Content creatorsJan 27 19:15
gde33[17:03:45] <schestowitz_bed2> [09:30] <gde33> I'm trying to look from the perspective of content creatorsJan 27 19:15
gde33[17:03:46] <schestowitz_bed2> [09:30] <gde33> if there is no reward they wont create anythingJan 27 19:15
gde33[17:03:53] <schestowitz_bed2> Poor content creator... who would farm for food?Jan 27 19:15
gde33[17:04:45] <schestowitz_bed2> If anything, the copyright cartel/monoopoly NEEDS neutralityJan 27 19:15
gde33[17:04:52] <schestowitz_bed2> to make it affordable to streamJan 27 19:15
gde33[17:04:58] <schestowitz_bed2> people pay the bill for traddicJan 27 19:15
gde33[17:05:10] <schestowitz_bed2> the problem is, the cartel sometimes owns the cable companies too, or vice versaJan 27 19:15
gde33you think you can force out the artJan 27 19:15
iophkHow much did VanGogh get paid?Jan 27 19:15
gde33NOTHINGJan 27 19:15
gde33that was good right?Jan 27 19:16
iophkNot much of a business model then...Jan 27 19:16
gde33that is your ideal model?Jan 27 19:16
gde33I only hear selling content is a terrible idea, one should get into the bitcoin ponzi in steadJan 27 19:16
gde33very homogenious standardsJan 27 19:17
gde33I wish this channel cost 100 euro per monthJan 27 19:18
iophkpay Roy then.Jan 27 19:19
gde33it would add some urgency to the debate, I would be helped by thatJan 27 19:19
gde33I've tried constructive discussion with people on the web for many years, if I look at the results I have to say far I've been wasting my time and effort.Jan 27 19:20
iophkThis afternoon you were hinting at a tax on net traffic to subsidize something or other.Jan 27 19:21
gde33yeah, then you asked for evidence, then I explained how it keeps out uninterested people, l gave an example, then you argued a sucker is born every minute as to prove the topic was unintersting? something like that?Jan 27 19:22
iophkpaying for the sake of paying? Jan 27 19:22
gde33exactlyJan 27 19:22
iophkNo return for that payment is for suckers.Jan 27 19:22
gde33no no, the payment is to keep out that opinionJan 27 19:23
gde33to make sure you are not there to elaborate on your skepticismJan 27 19:23
gde33not that it isn't validJan 27 19:23
iophkStart an alternate internet for people with more dollars than senseJan 27 19:23
gde33that is what i'm wondering about basically, how that would lookJan 27 19:23
iophkThere's a lot of dark fiber out there.Jan 27 19:23
gde33we can only guess I think?Jan 27 19:24
iophkNot if you have a business plan and enough money to back it up.Jan 27 19:24
gde33you also need to be motivated to go do something like thatJan 27 19:24
gde33in what way do I benefit from paying for googles bandwith?Jan 27 19:25
gde33Makes it sound as if the price they charge has something to do with the cost of what they are sellingJan 27 19:26
gde33it doesntJan 27 19:26
gde33they are just looking to max out proffitJan 27 19:26
iophkGoogle is paying for Google's bandwidth currently.Jan 27 19:26
iophkThey pay big money for that.Jan 27 19:26
gde33trueJan 27 19:26
gde33it is that atractive to own the infrastucture your business runs onJan 27 19:27
gde33I do completely agree with the ideology of customer own infrasturctureJan 27 19:27
gde33with most people it is just pearls for pigsJan 27 19:27
iophkYou have to continue with common carriage or it just will choke.Jan 27 19:28
gde33sorry not sure what you are trying to explain hereJan 27 19:28
iophkThe Internet is a network of networks.  If they don't allow the traffic of others, then nothing functions except for a crappy little zone.  That's what has already been tried and already failed.Jan 27 19:29
gde33that a non neutral internet would drown out the free things?Jan 27 19:29
iophkAnd the paid thingsJan 27 19:29
iophkespeially the paid thingsJan 27 19:29
gde33depends how you structure the paymentsJan 27 19:29
iophkbesides there aren't any free things on the netJan 27 19:29
iophkthey are all paid forJan 27 19:29

*schestowitz (~schestowi@unaffiliated/schestowitz) has joined #techrightsJan 27 19:29
gde33let me put it like this: In what way do I benefit from net neturality as a content creator?Jan 27 19:31
MinceRyou get to compete at allJan 27 19:31
MinceRusers can access your content without having their connection to it crippledJan 27 19:31
MinceRyou get a chanceJan 27 19:32
gde33oh but they do, I can only afford very minimalistic hostingJan 27 19:32
MinceRwithout net neutrality, you don't even get a chanceJan 27 19:32
gde33how would that work?Jan 27 19:32
MinceRhow would what work?Jan 27 19:32
gde33not getting a chanceJan 27 19:32
MinceRlet's say you host some videos on your siteJan 27 19:33
MinceRthe user's isp has a deal with google, so they offer youtube; and they offer their own siteJan 27 19:33
gde33cant afford the bandwith but ok, lets assume I couldJan 27 19:33
MinceRyou don't have a deal with them because you're a competitor and you're small fryJan 27 19:33
gde33yesJan 27 19:33
MinceRif they're feeling gracious the user isn't entirely banned from your siteJan 27 19:33
MinceRthey just don't get to stream the video at allJan 27 19:33
MinceRit's like they're using a 9600 bps modem to access the siteJan 27 19:34
gde33the user paid for internet, he can have access to anything he wantsJan 27 19:34
MinceRyes, if they have net neutralityJan 27 19:34
MinceRif they don't, then the user can have access to anything the ISP wants him toJan 27 19:34
MinceRhowever the ISP wants him toJan 27 19:34
iophkat whatever lowered speeds the ISP wants him to...Jan 27 19:34
gde33start your own isp?Jan 27 19:35
iophknot enough because the other ISPs you connect to can stil choke youJan 27 19:35
MinceRwhere will you get the finds for that?Jan 27 19:35
gde33I think we will have exactly the same thing only in a different formatJan 27 19:35
MinceRand where will you provide service?Jan 27 19:35
MinceRs/find/fund/Jan 27 19:35
MinceRno, we don't even have nearly the same thingJan 27 19:35
MinceRof course, things get even worse if you used some p2p protocol to help with hostingJan 27 19:36
gde33you are saying that net neutrality will give the ISP the right to block websites?Jan 27 19:36
MinceRnormally, that does work (GNU/Linux iso distribution via BitTorrent, for example)Jan 27 19:36
gde33is that really the same topic?Jan 27 19:36
MinceRyes, among other thingsJan 27 19:36
MinceRpart of what a common carrier is about is that they aren't allowed to decide what to block and what to allow throughJan 27 19:36
MinceRbut if you don't have net neutrality, the ISPs will just block p2p protocols entirelyJan 27 19:37
gde33so the blocked content is just not availableJan 27 19:37
gde33you dont get access to all the books for exampleJan 27 19:37
MinceRit can be blocked entirelyJan 27 19:37
gde33you didn't pay for that > no accessJan 27 19:37
MinceRor it can be allowed but slowed down arbitrarilyJan 27 19:37
gde33Are we not creating a giant straw man for the ISP? Is there really no way to do this fairly?Jan 27 19:38
MinceRnoJan 27 19:38
MinceRthe way to do this fairly is called net neutralityJan 27 19:38
gde33as in no blocking of content, just additional packages?Jan 27 19:38
MinceRanything else is by definition unfairJan 27 19:38
MinceRthey won't phrase it as "blocking of content"Jan 27 19:39
MinceRfor a normal internet user, all of the internet is the defaultJan 27 19:39
MinceRfor a non-neutral greedy ISP, nothing is the default, everything is "additional"Jan 27 19:39
gde33I will explain it again, this time I will just convince you: The thing is, proof of work equals value.Jan 27 19:40
gde33you can create cryptographic hashees and sell those in stead of selling contentJan 27 19:40
iophkbitcoinJan 27 19:40
gde33but it will always be a pretend gameJan 27 19:40
gde33pretend valueJan 27 19:40
gde33so you are just pretending everything is free / worthlessJan 27 19:41
iophkyou're missing the point that it's all paid for alreadyJan 27 19:41
iophkno need to pay twiceJan 27 19:41
gde33not enoughJan 27 19:41
iophkpay Roy thenJan 27 19:42
gde33my point was payments for the sake of payments remember?Jan 27 19:42
iophkand a solution was offered.  Fund your alternative to the Internet.Jan 27 19:42
gde33if existing plots are all that terrible at granting things their value, what else can we think of?Jan 27 19:42
gde33but wasnt that what netneutrality aimed to prevent?Jan 27 19:43
gde33everyone will be against me just for trying to attribute value lolJan 27 19:44
iophkValue to what?Jan 27 19:44
gde33to everythingJan 27 19:44
iophkUse Flattr thenJan 27 19:44
gde33that will only work for 0% of my trafficJan 27 19:45
iophk Maybe it is already being compensated in proportion to its perceived value... Jan 27 19:46
gde33not an acceptable hypothesisJan 27 19:46
gde33you can go project that on your own creationsJan 27 19:47
iophkthe data seems to support itJan 27 19:47
gde33not at all actuallyJan 27 19:47
gde33I just hatted the attentionJan 27 19:47
gde33I dont like having attention from more people than I can answer toJan 27 19:47
iophkHow did your test of Flattr go?  What was wrong?Jan 27 19:48
gde33I'm looking at it right now for the first timeJan 27 19:48

gde33is also funJan 27 19:48
gde33but I'm not seeing the revolutionJan 27 19:48
gde33the hard worked content items are not worth anywhere as much as the cryptographic hashJan 27 19:49
gde33this while you can just easly create a hashJan 27 19:49
gde33much easier than producing a valuable workJan 27 19:49
gde33I can also do a ponzi scheme with site creditsJan 27 19:50
iophkThere is also crowdsourcing.Jan 27 19:50
gde33that seems to workJan 27 19:50
iophkBut then deliverables are required.Jan 27 19:50
gde33facinating developmentJan 27 19:50
gde33I dont even know howmany kickstarter victims there areJan 27 19:50
gde33there is at least one who lost his shipmentJan 27 19:51
gde33in most of the cases it seems to work nicelyJan 27 19:51
gde33still it seems more a measure of peoples kindness than of the collective vision for the future?Jan 27 19:52

MinceR204019 < gde33> I will explain it again, this time I will just convince you: The thing is, proof of work equals value.Jan 27 20:06
MinceRit doesn't.Jan 27 20:06
MinceRvalue is what the market values. work may well be wasted.Jan 27 20:06
MinceRas for network access, it's currently paid for by the users alreadyJan 27 20:07
MinceRthere's no need to pretend that it's provided gratis.Jan 27 20:07
gde33proof of workJan 27 20:08
MinceRsame thing.Jan 27 20:08
iophkeffort != valueJan 27 20:08
MinceR(but it's a very communist thing to insist that any busywork is valuable and that everyone must be robbed to compensate the communist for worthless work)Jan 27 20:08
gde33you need to feel useful toJan 27 20:09
gde33in that way there is value, one can even play footballJan 27 20:09
MinceRfootball had better be useful by itself, thenJan 27 20:11
gde33who made you the decider?Jan 27 20:11
MinceRof what?Jan 27 20:11
gde33that came out wrong lolJan 27 20:12
gde33who decided what has value and what not?Jan 27 20:12
MinceRthe market didJan 27 20:12
MinceRthe people who had money they could and were willing to spend on goods.Jan 27 20:12
gde33but on the perceved value not what things cost to makeJan 27 20:12
MinceRwith the loss of net neutrality, the market would lose controlJan 27 20:12
MinceRand it would be placed in the hand of the corporate oligarchs.Jan 27 20:13
MinceRwhoever owns your internet connection would decide whose news you read.Jan 27 20:13
gde33why wouldnt that happen anyway?Jan 27 20:13
MinceRit certainly looks like it's happeningJan 27 20:14
gde33I can make a blog right now, write blog posts, but no one is going to read themJan 27 20:14
MinceReven the w3c has turned against its old idea of an open webJan 27 20:14
gde33people cant even find them without the oligarchsJan 27 20:14
MinceRyes they canJan 27 20:14
MinceRfor example, i could ask you the address right now, if i wanted to knowJan 27 20:14
MinceRand i could read it all without my ISP's express permission.Jan 27 20:15
gde33then if todays posting is not precicely what you are looking for you never look at it againJan 27 20:15
gde33easy come easy goJan 27 20:15
MinceRand you would deprive me of that choice?Jan 27 20:15
MinceRdo you think your blog is so important that people should be forced to read it?Jan 27 20:16
gde33I would deprive you from such harsh judgementJan 27 20:16
gde33The blog could be so important everyone should read it.Jan 27 20:16
gde33the chance is thereJan 27 20:17
gde33to become a good writer you have to write the whole timeJan 27 20:17
gde33it might be crap some daysJan 27 20:17
gde33you shouldnt be put on trial over each blog postJan 27 20:17
gde33overal performanceJan 27 20:18
MinceRand you won't beJan 27 20:18
MinceRif what you do is valued, the word will spreadJan 27 20:18
MinceRand there are search engines too, including at least one p2p oneJan 27 20:18
gde33nah the word wont spread, you have to work your ass offJan 27 20:19
gde33asking random strangers for a few bucks would go much fasterJan 27 20:20
MinceRyes, you have to work your ass offJan 27 20:20
MinceRand if you do it right, the word will spreadJan 27 20:20
gde33then what? big bandwith bills?Jan 27 20:20
iophkOr issue an IPOJan 27 20:20
gde33have LIES advertised all over the website?Jan 27 20:20

gde33oh yes, I believe most of the problelms we can produce are based on not valuing people.Jan 27 20:32

gde33lolJan 27 20:40
MinceRthat depends on how you define 'sin'Jan 27 20:40
gde33I define it as who should throw the first stoneJan 27 20:40
MinceRcertain religious zealots who believe themselves to be experts on ethics believe that you're responsible for the sins of your ancestorsJan 27 20:41
MinceRwhich shows how much they really know about ethicsJan 27 20:41
gde33at least we get to suffer their sins Jan 27 20:41

MinceRi was kinda hoping for more than just sufferingJan 27 20:41
gde33I had a dream a few days ago where I finally calculated why religion is nothing but an ego tripJan 27 20:42
gde33the idea one would be punished in the after life for what one doesJan 27 20:42
MinceRit's worse than an ego tripJan 27 20:42
gde33when I do something I dont care about thatJan 27 20:42
gde33I do things because they need doing, burning forever might just be worth itJan 27 20:42
MinceRit's a mental infection that poisons everythingJan 27 20:42
gde33we should have put George's head on a pike way back in 2001, then suffer the eternal punishment.Jan 27 20:43
gde33it would be totally worth itJan 27 20:43

MinceRalso any possibility of toleranceJan 27 20:46
gde33that isn't an argument you can use to convince that personJan 27 20:46
gde33if you can show him he is all doing this for himself Jan 27 20:46
MinceRthere is no argument you can use to convince a religious zealot.Jan 27 20:46
gde33then that changes the whole storyJan 27 20:46
gde33I think there is a good compromise available.Jan 27 20:46
MinceRone of the main traits the memetic evolution of religion selects for is the immunization against removal and against competitorsJan 27 20:46
gde33we take all the good stuff offered by a relgion, then we put that in a new wrapper and ask non religious people to help with these good thingsJan 27 20:47
gde33then we would be willing to help themJan 27 20:47
MinceRif it isn't based on reason, then it doesn't have a good foundationJan 27 20:47
MinceRand if it is, then it isn't religion.Jan 27 20:47
gde33some of it can be based on reasonJan 27 20:48
gde33if we the people start a non proffit to make a better world you better not get the idea to build a church from the donationsJan 27 20:48

gde33I had some fun discussions with people about those 2Jan 27 21:03
gde33why wont it help?Jan 27 21:03
MinceRit merely installs a centralized authority that decides who gets to run for office and who gets to voteJan 27 21:03
MinceRsure, they'll claim it's for objective reasonsJan 27 21:03
MinceRbut it won't beJan 27 21:03

MinceRit willJan 27 21:03
MinceRit's everywhereJan 27 21:03
gde33we know that empathic people feel the pain of othersJan 27 21:04
MinceRand people are trying hard to make it worseJan 27 21:04
gde33I wouldnt mind making that a requirement for politiciansJan 27 21:04
MinceRhow would you enforce it?Jan 27 21:04
gde33just eliminate the psychopathsJan 27 21:04
MinceRhow would you do that?Jan 27 21:04
gde33with brainscans and other testsJan 27 21:04
MinceRpsychopathy is probably the most difficult kind of mental disorder to diagnose objectivelyJan 27 21:05
gde33we dont need objectivityJan 27 21:05
MinceRpart of it is that the psychopath tries to hide their own disorderJan 27 21:05
gde33we need certaintyJan 27 21:05
MinceRwe do need objectivityJan 27 21:05
gde33empathic people get seizurs when you show them choped up bodies on a monitorJan 27 21:05
MinceRwithout objectivity, you get people deciding who gets whatJan 27 21:05
MinceRand corruptionJan 27 21:05
gde33if you can just sit there without any emotion you are not the man for the jobJan 27 21:05
MinceRsame system as before, maybe with a few more levelsJan 27 21:05
MinceRi doubt that everyone who's desensitized to images of mutilated bodies is a psychopathJan 27 21:06
gde33if you have an amount of people some will test obviously empathic, some will test obviously psychopatic and some will test average.Jan 27 21:06
MinceRi'm pretty sure it wasn't on any of the checklists i've seenJan 27 21:07
gde33I dont think it is a sexy idea to put the clear psychopath in powerJan 27 21:07
MinceRi'm pretty sure Cleckley didn't mention it in Mask of Sanity :>Jan 27 21:07
gde33he doesn't have what it takesJan 27 21:07
MinceRhe'll speak to the people and make them believe that he does have what it takesJan 27 21:07
gde33We could argue about average people but the cases where it is all to obvious should be eliminated.Jan 27 21:07
MinceRalso, tests can be corruptedJan 27 21:07
gde33these are people who dont have activity in that part of their brainJan 27 21:07
gde33you are setting up shop for warsJan 27 21:08
MinceRif the people doing the test aren't willing to lie about the results, the people in power will replace themJan 27 21:08
gde33you can certainly have a few cases where it isn't easy to get a good ratingJan 27 21:08
gde33just publish the data?Jan 27 21:08
MinceRalso, i'm pretty sure a psychopath could fake discomfortJan 27 21:08
gde33if you want to be a public figure, wouldnt you want to know this about yourself?Jan 27 21:09
gde33to what extend you are faking empathy?Jan 27 21:09
MinceRthey could tamper the data before publishing itJan 27 21:09
gde33it wont make you less of a personJan 27 21:09
gde33do you think a truly empathic person could just start a war for proffit?Jan 27 21:10
gde33personally, if you come to my desk to suggest such a thing I might just have to end youJan 27 21:10
gde33lolJan 27 21:10
MinceRno, i think a psychopath could easily fake being empathicJan 27 21:10
MinceRfor your testJan 27 21:10
gde33he cantJan 27 21:10
MinceRthen they get into power and do whatever they wanted to do all alongJan 27 21:10
gde33the biological effect is to strongJan 27 21:10
MinceRwhile faking whatever emotions they needJan 27 21:10
gde33people feel as if it is their finger being cut when looking at itJan 27 21:10
MinceRread Mask of Sanity :>Jan 27 21:11
gde33there is no evidence such tests can be faked but still it would add a layer of securityJan 27 21:11
MinceRno, it wouldn'tJan 27 21:11
MinceRit would merely add more hooks for corruptionJan 27 21:11
MinceRand more chances to attack people the oligarchy doesn't want in powerJan 27 21:11

MinceRfrom the outsideJan 27 21:12
gde33or do you doubt there are such cases?Jan 27 21:12
MinceRalso, by the very nature of such testing there would be a small number of people making a decisionJan 27 21:13
MinceRwhich would be easily subvertedJan 27 21:13
gde33the information could just be presented to the voterJan 27 21:13
MinceRthe voter is not a trained psychiatristJan 27 21:13
gde33you are showing empathy to people who dont know what it meansJan 27 21:13
gde33why would you bother with that?Jan 27 21:13
MinceRand any discrepancy could be explained as a different interpretation of the dataJan 27 21:13
gde33do you think they will aperciate it?Jan 27 21:13
MinceRpoliticians already do thatJan 27 21:14
gde33they will think of it as your weaknessJan 27 21:14
MinceRthey'll present the data and their decisionJan 27 21:14
MinceRand claim that the decision is based on the dataJan 27 21:14
gde33sureJan 27 21:14
MinceRand another expert will easily determined that the decision is bogusJan 27 21:14
gde33you can have the tests done independentlyJan 27 21:14
MinceRwhile the ones on the politician's side will agree with it, no matter whatJan 27 21:15
gde33the other expert deserves a fair hearingJan 27 21:15
MinceRso, how many tests will decide if someone gets to run for office or not?Jan 27 21:15
MinceRand how?Jan 27 21:15
gde33I'm still talking about the extreme cases where people have pretty much reverted to using nothing but their lizard brainJan 27 21:15

MinceRand so they'll be corrupted to decide the corruptor's voters are eligible, others aren'tJan 27 21:17
gde33you just say that because you failed for the testJan 27 21:18
MinceRyeah, that's what the corruptor will sayJan 27 21:18

gde33then we increase the complexity of the voting processJan 27 21:38
MinceRand how would you do that?Jan 27 21:38
gde33excluding even more peopleJan 27 21:38
MinceRand how will increased complexity work?Jan 27 21:38
gde33voting more often on actual topicsJan 27 21:38
gde33involvement in decision makingJan 27 21:39
MinceRmost people can't be botheredJan 27 21:39
MinceRthey already vote randomlyJan 27 21:39
gde33we can compensate them for not participatingJan 27 21:39
gde33they can always learn the nesasary stuff and join usJan 27 21:39
gde33until they do they will just have to trust usJan 27 21:40
gde33one way or annotherJan 27 21:40
MinceRthey can't and they don't care toJan 27 21:40
gde33I dont see the problem with people who dont careJan 27 21:40
MinceRand if you devise a system to confirm that they've learned, that system will be compromisedJan 27 21:40
gde33cant we respect that?Jan 27 21:40
MinceRpeople who don't care do a lot of damageJan 27 21:40
gde33I'm looking for basic knowledgeJan 27 21:40
MinceRpeople who don't care to think a bit voted hungary into a dictatorshipJan 27 21:41
MinceRpeople who don't care to thing a bit keep the usa in its two-party systemJan 27 21:41
gde33we can eliminate most voters with the requirement of knowing which parties they can chose from.Jan 27 21:41
MinceRprobably same in the ukJan 27 21:41
MinceRnot sure how that would work, considering that parties get nominated before the electionJan 27 21:41
MinceRand there are a lot of parties who try to get nominatedJan 27 21:42
gde33we can require basic knowledge of each optionJan 27 21:42
MinceRagain, someone will decide what the right answers areJan 27 21:42
gde33without knowledge of what the choices are your choice cant be considered as valauble as the next guyJan 27 21:42
MinceRand someone will tell the voters on their side what the right answers areJan 27 21:42
gde33at first the test should be kintergarden levelJan 27 21:43
gde33seriouslyJan 27 21:43
gde33most voters only know the names of the top 3 optionsJan 27 21:43
MinceRalso, people will try to smear your test with all sorts of false stuff too, to fight itJan 27 21:43
gde33thats fairJan 27 21:44
gde33it deserves to be attackedJan 27 21:44
MinceRand it won't be introduced anywhereJan 27 21:44
gde33for reasons you described earlierJan 27 21:44
MinceRunless the oligarchs want it toJan 27 21:44
MinceRbut then they'll shape it to their needsJan 27 21:44
gde33the idea is not at a stage where it can be implmenetedJan 27 21:44
gde33but it is intersting to talk with people who argue they want to vote but they dont want to bother knowing anythingJan 27 21:45
gde33if you ask them how we are going to get it right they say ehheheheJan 27 21:45
gde33technically the correct responseJan 27 21:46
gde33If such a system would be taken over it would still allow for greater citizen participation?Jan 27 21:49
MinceRit would seem to me that it would allow for less citizen participationJan 27 21:49
MinceRseeing how it's all about restricting who gets to participateJan 27 21:49
gde33smaller numbers but more influence?Jan 27 21:49
MinceRwell, those are connectedJan 27 21:50
gde33the test could be designed to eliminate a fixed percentage of votersJan 27 21:50
MinceRin the extreme, you have one citizen participating, the PatricianJan 27 21:50

DaemonFC"We didn't make it for Indians, WE MADE IT FOR WESTERNERS *WHO CAN AFFORD IT*".Jan 28 00:25
DaemonFC(Emphasis is mine)Jan 28 00:26
DaemonFCIn other words, not even all westerners, only the very rich ones. And I'm sure that even post-Obamacare, insurance companies will figure out some way to "discourage" customers that cost them $5,750 a month in drugs alone. People that are that sick are the reason Medicare and Medicaid exist. They're made a burden of the public because private insurers don't want those customers, only relatively healthy ones. That's why those programs are allowed Jan 28 00:26
DaemonFCto exist. It's privatized profits and socialized losses. Lemon Socialism.Jan 28 00:26
DaemonFCI think it's wonderful that India has used the force majeure of its national government against foreign predatory drug companies, to help cancer and HIV patients.Jan 28 00:26

schestowitz__Entertainment is another word for a palliative against one's disatisfaction with oneself.

schestowitz__My wife and I don't watch TV. I gave away my last set about a decade ago, and I've hardly missed a thing.

schestowitz__iophk: I habe some posts scheduled for tonightJan 28 13:59
iophkcoolJan 28 13:59
schestowitz__I have lots planned for yesterday, but Seagate drive arrive and it was as broken as the one it replacedJan 28 14:00
schestowitz__Burned 4 hours of my time, killed my appetiate, and even ruined my morningJan 28 14:00
schestowitz__I wonder if a company can be held legally liable for replacing faulty with faulty under "warrany"Jan 28 14:00
schestowitz__Just a total waste of time, would be better to use the time to just buy a new driveJan 28 14:00
iophkI've heard that some send refurbished drives as warranty replacements.Jan 28 14:01
iophkHow long was the warranty? 1,2,5 years?Jan 28 14:01
schestowitz__Tonight I need to set up NRPE on dozens of Debian servers, then I can post lots of good articles again, can pick up pace again this year, and am getting fibre next month...Jan 28 14:01
schestowitz__2 years Jan 28 14:01
schestowitz__the new drive sort of hangs up randomlyJan 28 14:02
schestowitz__Sometimes while formattingJan 28 14:02
iophkThere was a recent report rating Seagate as very low on reliabi.lityJan 28 14:02
iophkHitachi was best in the report.Jan 28 14:02
schestowitz__I need to focus on TuxMachiens migration, so I'll put off any futher work on the drive. I will do a thorough fsck thius weekend and use it to prove they sent me garbageJan 28 14:02
schestowitz__Segates's official account in twitter already stepped in for damage controlJan 28 14:03
schestowitz__I got Hitachi as a replacement for a bad laptop drive in my CompaqJan 28 14:03
schestowitz__IIRC it lasted for many yearsJan 28 14:03
schestowitz__When I tried it in 2001, around 10 years later, I think it did get some inode issues (under DSL), but that was the last time I played with that old laptop (32 MB of RAM)Jan 28 14:04
schestowitz__Hitachi=IBMJan 28 14:04
schestowitz__Is that something that's in China's hands now too?Jan 28 14:04
schestowitz__IBM makes me think, maybe the future realy is IT staff losing jobs to China (the Symphony team is largely Chinese) and China is going to just buy or overrise US brandsJan 28 14:05
schestowitz__And then there's IndiaJan 28 14:05
schestowitz__China, reportedly, is now getting more involved in software, just like IndiaJan 28 14:06
schestowitz__huiman resources (time) are cheap thereJan 28 14:06
iophkTheir R&D may not be so good but then the US has been cutting and cutting R&D for years now.Jan 28 14:06
schestowitz__They can do extreme programming, like having 3 people working on a program at once, spotting issues like they do in factoriesJan 28 14:06
schestowitz__My siuster works with Chinese programmers who are in GE, and she's says they're not so good.... yet GE has been dropping US workers and hiring in China for a whileJan 28 14:07
schestowitz__My brother's old company did the same with India, and some said that the cost of fixing their programming mistakes (I actually think they have fantastic programmers) is higher than the savings of outsourcing the jobJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Mass production paradigm is being ytested in s/w nowJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__See MicrosoftJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Around Vista they send the programming to IndiaJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Same with AdobeJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__And look what happenedJan 28 14:08
schestowitz__Saved money on wages, but the software is not necessarily better, to say the leastJan 28 14:09
schestowitz__It's good for managers, perhaps, but even that's doubtab;eJan 28 14:09
iophkM$ has never had good quality though.  And I can't recall when Adobe last was good.Jan 28 14:09
schestowitz__Class war is now also a war t devalue IT pros, driving their wages down, increasing working hours, stress, etc.Jan 28 14:10
schestowitz__Automation experts too are no longer valuedJan 28 14:10
schestowitz__Like outsourcing the outsiurcersJan 28 14:10
schestowitz__Eventually the outsourcers too will see themselves replaced by thiose whom they promoteJan 28 14:10
schestowitz__FOSS is one way to reduce costsJan 28 14:10
iophkSaves effort, too.Jan 28 14:11
schestowitz__and then sort of justify the expense of hiring expensive staffJan 28 14:11
schestowitz__Like people who manage 1000 servers at onceJan 28 14:11
schestowitz__with no costs associated with the automation (puppet, nagios, etc.) involvesJan 28 14:11

schestowitz__I wonder if i should be careful with the photos of drone victimsJan 28 14:24
schestowitz__They could use that as an excuse for blocking. I never had someone reporting to me that s/he had been blocked, not even in censorship-happy nationsJan 28 14:24
iophkIt was interesting that the pro-standards people were clustered around certain companies and blocking that one company could block directly / indirectly the sites.  It let up hours after the vote.Jan 28 14:24

schestowitz_bed2That's one of the reasons your E17 desktop seems so smooth. If you turn on Kmail, that effect will go away.Jan 28 16:04
schestowitz_bed2KDE, to their credit, is working to make that search less obnoxious but I don't see how it can work. The only time I used Nepomuk was when Kmail demanded it for search. Even though I limited it to my email, it consumed 50 to 100% of my cpu for a week or two. It finally calmed down.Jan 28 16:05
schestowitz_bed2The first and only time I tried to actually search my email using the fancy database, it deleted all of my email. The damn thing froze as soon as I pressed the search button. I waited for it to do what it wanted and was horrified to see that everything had been erased.Jan 28 16:05
schestowitz_bed2Those two things, depending on database for core functions and risk of complete email loss, are why I'm going to use Trinity for my email. Wheezy has the last version of Kmail that I'd recommend to anyone, so I recommend other email clients to new users now.Jan 28 16:05

DaemonFCApparently, the iBeacon spyware was introduced in iOS 7, but the hardware to enable it has been in all iPhones and dormant since iPhone 4.Jan 28 20:20
DaemonFCIf you walk into a store and start getting alerts from that store on your iPhone, that's why. But it's just as likely to be used silently to track where you are in their store, accurate to within a couple of inches, so that they can profile how the customer shops in their stores and design layouts that get people to buy more stuff they don't need.Jan 28 20:20
DaemonFCiBeacon meets the entire definition of spyware. It's something that the user wouldn't approve of, that leaks out personal information to untrusted third parties, and it can't be shut off or removed, even when you know about it. Jan 28 20:20

schestowitz_bed2"Sorry, but a lot of this still doesn't make sense to me. This concludes with "If you are going to use a US based search engine, it might as well be Google." which is absolutely insane if you actually read the article. All of the reasons stated for not using DDG are equally applicable to Google so why use them as an argument against DDG and to use Google? It may be unfair to gain users through exploiting NSA stories, but Google isJan 29 16:04
schestowitz_bed2still USA-based and just as susceptible to FISC orders. It seems like a wash either way."Jan 29 16:04

schestowitz_bed2If you are going to let yourself be spied on, you might as well get something out of it. DDG and many other search engines pollute their results with Bing, Microsoft's "Decision Engine" which is misleading on top of being spied on. Google's search results are still excellent.Jan 29 16:05
schestowitz_bed2I wish that I knew of an honest alternative that gave excellent results. That is changing through copyright/DMCA takedown censorship and other pressures, but at the time of writing, it was true. I wish that I knew if TOR or proxies would protect your privacy but I don't. These things were beyond the scope of my essay which was why you should not trust DDG.Jan 29 16:05

TechrightsBot-trtruth-out.org | Costs of Privatization Hidden in Plain Sight  [ http://ur1.ca/gizxt ]Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCIndiana is also being robbed by the company that Mitch Daniels sold the toll roads to. He gave them a 75 year contract in 2006, all of the money is gone, and the company is claiming that Indiana owes it money because it is getting less toll road fees than it thought it would when it signed the contract.Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCEven without that, they would make more money in the 75 years than they paid for the contract.Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCPrivatization is often proposed by right-wing politicians who claim that it will save money. The companies that get the contracts almost never run things cheaper than the state was. The first thing that the toll road company did in Indiana was jack up the toll and stop maintaining the roads. They're full of potholes now, and the fee for driving on them has doubled.Jan 29 22:49
DaemonFCIndiana's Republicans passed a law that gives them a pass to drive on the toll road for free. Many Indiana House and Senate Democrats refused to use the pass, and kept paying the toll. Jan 29 22:49

schestowitz__To me it's a no-brainer: Tuxera's been selling this driver for years now, it's based on Brad Boyer's source code, they got caught (thanks to Asus). We've got a proof, that they've been selling a product which is a 90% result of hard work of people from our community.Jan 30 13:12
schestowitz__I believe It is our common job to keep things right and fair.Jan 30 13:12
schestowitz__I do feel for Samsung being caught between two trains of M$'s patents and Linux' free license. But the fact that they've been selling a product based on code from Linux tree, for years, and not returning any money they literally stole from honest developers who contributed their free time to support FOSS and GPL, makes me feel quite bad. They didn't have to do that, but nobody forced them to use the code from the vfat driver as a Jan 30 13:12
schestowitz__base. In the end they didn't pay any fines, they ended up being heroes by open-sourcing the driver.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__I am 100% sure it is exactly the same case this time, except there were no patents involved. It never will be neither fair in case with exFat nor in case with HFS+ even if they give up the source to the product they most likely originally stole from Brad. None of us have money for a lawyer to sue violators of GPL and companies seem to be happy to abuse this fact.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__They won't pay anybody for stealing the product, even though they made a fortune out of it.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__I have a small question:Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__Let's imagine for a second they haven't used Brad's GPL'd source as a base for their product, but still sold an HFS+ driver written from scratch under GPL (even a single copy)...Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__can we require the source code legally from them?Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__Speaking of Snowden's contribution to society, honestly, I lost the rest of my trust in proprietary software companies.Jan 30 13:13
schestowitz__I am not surprised at all by Tuxera stealing code and selling as their own, I've been more surprised by Samsung being involved in the theft of vfat Linux code.Jan 30 13:13

schestowitz__Have a small question, off the record: why do companies get sued for let's say, using software they didn't purchase in their products, but when it comes down to selling products based on free software, in violation to GPL, companies don't get in trouble?

TechrightsBot-tr@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: Companies that use terms like "community manager" reveal their real attitude towards volunteers. Say "coordinator" or "leader", not managerJan 30 19:24
schestowitz__"Jan 30 19:24
schestowitz__Very true. Most of the community managers I've dealt with were less interested in listening and understanding than they were with having me swallow a set of talking points. They waste everyone's time.Jan 30 19:24
schestowitz__After some thought, I like the term community representative and think that it's a legitimate thing to do. Communications manager, even that sounds like perception management. I agree with other people here that "leader" and "coordinator" also imply control or manipulation. Representative is an honest term and implies two way communication representing the company to the community and the community to the company. That's a valid and Jan 30 19:24

schestowitz__iophk: hiJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__morning, MinceRJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__Just a quick questionJan 31 10:41
iophksureJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__say you have site A with DNS pointing to XJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__and site B with DNS pointing to YJan 31 10:41
schestowitz__when you move DNS from X to YJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__can you expect no downtime?Jan 31 10:42
iophkI think so, butJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__i see requests served OK, but it seems like some machines (esp. in our house) still go nowhere when looking up the addressJan 31 10:42
schestowitz__I think that nameserver migrations without downtimes are sometimes like that, but I want to be sure before we leave the house for 5 hoursJan 31 10:43
iophkit looks like also a matter of changing authoritative name serversJan 31 10:43
schestowitz__on the same network, the tablet reaches the old serverJan 31 10:43
schestowitz__And the phone and laptop reach nowhereJan 31 10:43
iophkIt may be your cacheJan 31 10:44
iophkOn two networks, I get the new ip for the hostnameJan 31 10:44
iophklemme check one more...Jan 31 10:44
schestowitz__gotchaJan 31 10:44
schestowitz__Is this host-level cache like /etc/hosts?Jan 31 10:45
schestowitz__Becfuse changing broewsers has no effectJan 31 10:45
schestowitz__Wher eis DNS cache?Jan 31 10:45
iophkThe third one is ok.Jan 31 10:46
schestowitz__maybeit'a cached at the hubJan 31 10:46
iophkI'm not sure how it is all cached, if it is still looking for the old name server it will still get the old address.Jan 31 10:46
iophkWhich nameserver to use might be cachedJan 31 10:46
schestowitz__the problem is. it does not even connect to the old server, escept the tabletJan 31 10:47
schestowitz__it accesses the old siteJan 31 10:47
schestowitz__the others get nowhereJan 31 10:47
iophkDid you get the old registrar to drop the name?Jan 31 10:48
schestowitz__nope. not afaikJan 31 10:48
schestowitz__Maybe it checks the IP against the DNS and finds a mismatcxh or somethingJan 31 10:48
schestowitz__But it does seem to be working for everyone (so far as I know) except usJan 31 10:49
iophkmight be two registrars fighting it out for the authoritative answerJan 31 10:49
schestowitz__I'll try my web proxyJan 31 10:49
iophkwhat about setting the old registrar to point to the new, static ip?Jan 31 10:49
schestowitz__I don't know how to change registrars details in that wayJan 31 10:50
iophkI'm getting the new ip on a 4th net, too.Jan 31 10:51

*MinceR suggests remote detonation feature as wellJan 31 22:20
gde33that was one of my many proposals to the EUJan 31 22:21
gde33they did god know howmany of them, almost as if I wrote the whole agendaJan 31 22:22
gde33lmaoJan 31 22:22
MinceR:>Jan 31 22:22
gde33lets not do car chases and stop carsJan 31 22:22
gde33if you dont like it we can run you over or something equally appropriateJan 31 22:22
MinceRlet's be very surprised when we find out that the primary targets of this will disable the "feature" in their carsJan 31 22:22
gde33smashed by a trainJan 31 22:22
gde33lolJan 31 22:22
gde33not as easy as you thinkJan 31 22:23
MinceRalso let's be very surprised when others exploit the feature against drivers and kill them or rob themJan 31 22:23
MinceRor bothJan 31 22:23
MinceRdoesn't seem to difficult -- remove, disconnect or isolate the antenna that receives the commandJan 31 22:23
gde33then you are going to use the road but ohh it is full of carsJan 31 22:24
gde33what a bummerJan 31 22:24
gde33lolJan 31 22:24
gde33MinceR: it will be annoying, that is the pointJan 31 22:26
MinceRno, the point is that it will kill people they didn't want to keepJan 31 22:26
MinceRs/keep/kill/Jan 31 22:26
MinceRand that it will be exploited against peopleJan 31 22:26
gde33sure it willJan 31 22:26
MinceRbecause a bunch of fascist idiots never think anything throughJan 31 22:27
MinceRor they just don't careJan 31 22:27
MinceRit's not their life that's threatened after allJan 31 22:27
MinceR(or so they think)Jan 31 22:27
gde33you just need a transportation system that worksJan 31 22:27
gde33switching off the machines is part of thatJan 31 22:28
MinceRthat's what the ignition key/switch is forJan 31 22:28
gde33I also proposed a speed limiterJan 31 22:28
MinceRanother great ideaJan 31 22:28
MinceRit's not like some accidents could be avoided by speeding away from the source of the dangerJan 31 22:29
gde33people have this idea that people working on roads have to get killed regularlyJan 31 22:29
MinceR(and who cares anyway)Jan 31 22:29
MinceRwell, that explains these half-baked ideas, thenJan 31 22:29
gde33the max speed outside my house is 5 km/h there are no sidewalksJan 31 22:29
gde33it even use to have speed bumpsJan 31 22:30
gde33hahJan 31 22:30
MinceRi'm sure they saved lots of money with no sidewalksJan 31 22:30
MinceRsidewalks are expensive stuff!Jan 31 22:30
gde33it is in the way the blocks are buildJan 31 22:31
MinceRyes, "badly"Jan 31 22:31
gde33basically it is one big sidewalkJan 31 22:31
gde33cars are suppose to drive walking speed to the parkingJan 31 22:31
MinceRwhat are cars doing on it then?Jan 31 22:31
MinceRcars don't belong on the sidewalk.Jan 31 22:31
gde33sure, but there are other areas with other speed limits that dont work eitherJan 31 22:31
gde33the max is 120 on the highway, people drive 140Jan 31 22:32
gde33you are very annoying if you drive 120Jan 31 22:32
MinceRmost people can't handle drivingJan 31 22:32
MinceRthose who can't do it shouldn't be allowed toJan 31 22:32
gde33then the whole train goes in front of the cameraJan 31 22:32
gde33and they all get ticketsJan 31 22:32
gde33it's a nonsense systemJan 31 22:32
MinceRlike, if they can't learn how to keep distance, they shouldn't get to driveJan 31 22:32
MinceRinstead of endangering meJan 31 22:32
*yang has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)Jan 31 22:33
gde33you should be able to put the pedal to the mettalJan 31 22:33
MinceRif they can't learn how to use turn signals, they probably can't learn most of other things eitherJan 31 22:33
MinceRso, again, don't let them driveJan 31 22:33
gde33drive max speed the whole timeJan 31 22:33
gde33corners to!Jan 31 22:33
gde33if the traffic light is red, the car slows downJan 31 22:33
gde33not maybeJan 31 22:33
gde33we are not just going to make itJan 31 22:33
gde33lolJan 31 22:33
MinceRif the traffic controller computer has a glitch, you dieJan 31 22:34

gde33maybe you should remember the whole drive by wire system is going to be implmeneted?Jan 31 22:34

gde33hahaJan 31 22:35
MinceRyou're not making senseJan 31 22:35
gde33we need to make a good system for themJan 31 22:35
gde33so that they can drive places without issuesJan 31 22:35
MinceRwe have one, it's called public transportJan 31 22:35
gde33linux carsJan 31 22:35
gde33public transport doesn't workJan 31 22:36
MinceRneither do idiotsJan 31 22:36
MinceRand neither does the "i'll just push a few buttons randomly here on the remote control for that guy's car while he thinks he's driving it lol"Jan 31 22:37
gde33I do have real ideas how [public] transport should workJan 31 22:37

gde33I'm just not going to propose those to the EUJan 31 22:37
gde33they wouldnt understandJan 31 22:37
MinceRindeedJan 31 22:37
MinceRhungary is a pretty good example of how a public transport shouldn't and can't work, thoughJan 31 22:37
gde33the point is that we already have robot cars hereJan 31 22:37
gde33many of themJan 31 22:37
gde33since the 80'sJan 31 22:38
MinceRin special environments, yesJan 31 22:38
MinceRnot on general roadsJan 31 22:38
gde33it gets increasingly silly to have people crash themselves into annother for the greater good of transportation lolJan 31 22:38
MinceRnot mixed with other modes of transportJan 31 22:38
gde33sure they areJan 31 22:38
MinceRwhere?Jan 31 22:38
gde33they look like trucks with 2 behindsJan 31 22:38
MinceRnever seen thoseJan 31 22:39
gde33it is mostly pilots but it's done arround the worldJan 31 22:39
MinceRairlines are very differentJan 31 22:39
MinceRwith all the space, you can offset them a lot more from each other (lanes too)Jan 31 22:40
MinceRplus you don't get pedestrians, bikers, etc.Jan 31 22:40

gde33here it is a goalJan 31 22:42

DaemonFCMicrosoft has sued a computer store that was selling refurbished laptops that came with a Windows Vista license, which had been re-imaged with the same version of Windows Vista that they came with.Feb 01 02:44
TechrightsBot-trwww.press-citizen.com | NO TITLE  [ http://ur1.ca/gjhgg ]Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCMicrosoft claims that exercising your rights under the First Sale Doctrine is "counterfeiting software".Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCIn other words, everyone that is selling their old computer and keeps Windows on it for the next owner is doing the same thing that this company did. Microsoft says you have no right to do that, which flies in the face of Supreme Court precedent. (It's the same as selling a used book or a used CD, which is totally legal.)Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCI'm not suggesting that it's good to give someone else a copy of Windows.Feb 01 02:44
DaemonFCIt's better to give them software that respects their freedom, such as GNU/Linux. Nobody has ever been sued for "counterfeiting" GNU/Linux, because software counterfeiting is impossible, and everyone has the guaranteed right to share it under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

DaemonFCMicrosoft produces rubbish products and is a has-been dying company. This is one of their last gasps of frustration. If MS wins, I hope that more people switch to a Mac for their new computer. Feb 01 03:10

DaemonFCApple software has most of the same problems regarding lack of user freedoms.Feb 01 03:10
DaemonFCThey haven't sued anyone for reselling their Mac that I am aware of, but they wouldn't need to. Software is kind of a hook for them to sell their expensive computers in the first place. Feb 01 03:10

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCThey give it away gratis at the moment, but it does not give its users freedom.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCVista 8.1 was also gratis, but did not give users freedom.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCIn fact, every new version of either OS takes more freedom away from the user. Feb 01 03:11
schestowitz__Not here, not yet, although the Tories try to make it soFeb 01 03:11
DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCSo, why would I care about Microsoft threatening a company for distributing its software?Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCWell, first, it threatens everyone who has purchased a license to use anything that is bound by copyright.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCSecondly, it would not mean fewer copies of Windows in existence. Every user and company would simply stop reselling existing licenses, and pay Microsoft even more money for new licenses, which is worse than simply reselling an existing license, which would give them even more money to attack users and their freedom with more malicious products.Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCIt would be better if every copy of Windows was destroyed, but giving them more money for new licenses just makes two problems where there was only one problem before. It's counterproductive. Feb 01 03:11
DaemonFCerr, because it wouldFeb 01 03:12
DaemonFCKeep an eye on this case. It threatens the entire first sale doctrine.Feb 01 03:13
DaemonFCAlmost every time you give this Supreme Court another chance to fuck people over, it takes it.Feb 01 03:13
DaemonFCschestowitz__: Yeah. I had good insurance before I turned 18.Feb 01 03:14
DaemonFCAt the time, there was no PPACA, so you just lost your parents health insurance when you turned 18.Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCIt's 26 now.Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCAnyway, with a few minutes left on the clock, I hurried up and got a whole bunch of things taken care of.Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCWithin a year, I had sinus surgery, a tonsillectomy, all my wisdom teeth removed, etc. Feb 01 03:15
DaemonFCI actually got all my wisdom teeth removed and then lost my dental AND heath insurance the very next day.Feb 01 03:16
DaemonFC*healthFeb 01 03:16
DaemonFCAnd I was lucky I could get in at the last minute, because 12 years ago, it cost over $2,500 to get your wisdom teeth removed.Feb 01 03:17
DaemonFCThey weren't causing me a problem, yet, but I hurried up and got it done because there was no telling when it would be a problem and where I was going to find $2,500 at.Feb 01 03:17
DaemonFCThe pain medication they gave me didn't work, and the dentist would not speak to me, or call in a new prescription, because I was no longer insured.Feb 01 03:19
DaemonFCSo I basically spent the next week in terrible pain because I had no insurance and was recovering from surgery.Feb 01 03:19

Sosumiand their main revenue, if actually, all revenue comes from hardwareFeb 01 10:14
Sosumithat is why you have the computers they sell totally locked downFeb 01 10:14
Sosumisimply because crapple isn't going to get your money if you keep updating you dear mac pro for 6 yearsFeb 01 10:15
Sosumispecially when it comes to realms of graphics cardsFeb 01 10:16
Sosumiand if m$ is so crappy, why do you get much better drivers on windows (and linux) than on osxFeb 01 10:16
Sosumiif m$ is so bad, why does xcode is a total letdown compared to VS?Feb 01 10:17
Sosumiis crapple actually better? or just as bad as m$Feb 01 10:18

Sosumithe seller could claimFeb 01 10:24
Sosumithat he's just reselling the laptop hardware wiseFeb 01 10:24
Sosumiand as for the included windows is just like "an ownership transfer"Feb 01 10:25
Sosumiand that he's not charging for thatFeb 01 10:26
Sosumiand I hope that in each receipt he passedFeb 01 10:27

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 22:25
DaemonFCFirst of all, their "Law of Similars" is ridiculous pseudo-scientific garbage. It makes a ridiculous claim that water has a "memory" of everything it has been exposed to, that the effect on the human body of a substance is greater the more diluted it is, and that the substance in question will cure diseases that cause similar symptoms of the substance that is claimed to be the active ingredient in the homeopathic solution. (The hair of the dog Feb 01 22:25
DaemonFCthat bit you?)/Feb 01 22:25
DaemonFCSecondly, there's no way to achieve the dilutions that they claim. One duck liver and heart would be more than enough to make all of the "Oscillococcinum" sold in the world (supposedly a flu remedy), and it would require more than 100 times more water than exists on the planet Earth to dilute it to the claimed dilution.Feb 01 22:25
DaemonFCThird, and purely ironic, the biggest company behind "homeopathic remedies" is a French company called Boiron, which rhymes with "Moron".Feb 01 22:25
DaemonFCEven though homeopathy is pseudo-scientific crap, it has a large base of followers, and you can find their little bottles of water and placebo pills at your local Walgreens. It's a multi-billion dollar per year business. Feb 01 22:25
DaemonFCAnd on that note, I'm going to take a leak. Please enjoy drinking an 8C dilution of my urine. I hope it's refreshing.Feb 01 22:25
DaemonFCIf it cures anything, let me know. Feb 01 22:25
MinceR:>Feb 01 22:27
MinceR"i got a homeopathic pill for my gullibility"Feb 01 22:28
DaemonFCYeah, it's a waste of money.Feb 01 22:46
DaemonFCIt's worse because you're not just wasting money, you're using placebo as an alternative to seeking medical attention.Feb 01 22:46
DaemonFCGovernments seem to regard homeopathy as benign.Feb 01 22:47
DaemonFCHeh. Oral B has decreased the prices of their electric toothbrushes, but slipped in a 25% price increase on the replacement heads.Feb 01 23:04

DaemonFC:PFeb 01 23:20

DaemonFClolFeb 01 23:26
DaemonFCI used 356 GB of data last monthFeb 01 23:26
DaemonFCWell, my cable internet bill is up to $75.Feb 01 23:29
DaemonFCIf they're going to charge me for it, I might as well get my money's worth.Feb 01 23:29
DaemonFCThe city is now charging $5 for every bag of trash past two bags.Feb 01 23:40
DaemonFCI pointed out to my mom that since they didn't specify what a "bag" meant, that she should get one of those 55 gallon trash cans and put that in her kitchen.Feb 01 23:40
DaemonFCSo she did.Feb 01 23:40
MinceRwe were forced into a trash management contract and we're forced to pay even if we don't live at that house and don't produce trash thereFeb 01 23:47
MinceRbecause this is hungaryFeb 01 23:47
MinceRasshole of europeFeb 01 23:47
DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCRomney said he was frugal and in touch with American voters because he compacted his trash to save $5 a month and only uses gratis apps on his $800 iBad.Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCPerhaps he also has a toothpaste squeezer in his bathroom. The world might never know.Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCI bet he got a great deal on his latest 11,000 square foot house, his several luxury cars, the car elevator... Maybe he even shops at Mens Wearhouse for his suits. You know that if you buy an $800 suite there, that sometimes they give you an extra one for only $100?Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCI bet he has plenty of tips for how people earning $8 an hour and no health insurance can live the high life. They just have to work even harder and eventually they'll "get what they deserve".Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCIn other words, perhaps they will be working for $8.05 an hour this time next year if they behave. Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFCerrr, suitFeb 01 23:52
DaemonFCMaybe I should walk in there like Sean Connery in Highlander.Feb 01 23:52
DaemonFC"The gentleman would like a suit of clothes!"Feb 01 23:53
MinceR:>Feb 01 23:53
DaemonFCI think that it's ridiculous to spend a lot of money on clothes.Feb 01 23:57
DaemonFCI usually wear t-shirts that I got in packs of four for about $10 and some jeans from kmart.Feb 01 23:57
MinceRespecially such impractical ones (suits)Feb 01 23:57
DaemonFCI'm in compliance with the laws that state that public nudity is a crime.Feb 01 23:58
DaemonFCI don't see why I should spend more than I have to.Feb 01 23:58

gde33I'm trying to look from the perspective of content creatorsJan 27 04:29
gde33if there is no reward they wont create anythingJan 27 04:29
iophkI know.  The net has been such a desert.  Not even one business uses it yet. Jan 27 04:30
gde33it might just be great if you had to pay for thingsJan 27 04:30
iophkMaybe it will be really great if the carriers can charge for both ends of the connection instead of just the one.Jan 27 04:30
gde33it seems nesasaryJan 27 04:31
iophkAnd thus kill the goose that has been laying the golden eggs.Jan 27 04:31

gde33I'm not so sure about thatJan 27 04:32
iophkFalse dichotomy.  The net, with net neutrality, has made a lot of money for a lot of people and their businesses.  Jan 27 04:32
gde33I think people who make it their goal not to earn money are never going to have the influence they seekJan 27 04:32
iophkThere's probably precious few small businesses without a web presence.Jan 27 04:32
iophkAnything bigger has a serious web site.Jan 27 04:33
gde33it isn't a system that favors the little guy at allJan 27 04:33
gde33it favors the big and fat Jan 27 04:33
iophkEliminating net neutrality will eliminate the little guy all together.Jan 27 04:33
gde33nonsenseJan 27 04:33
iophkToo many fees.Jan 27 04:33

gde33my curiosity was triggered by it not being such a bad idea as it seemed at firstJan 27 04:42
iophkNothing stops you for putting up a paywall on your site.Jan 27 04:42
gde33lots of things stop me from doing thatJan 27 04:42
gde33how would you like to pay?Jan 27 04:43
iophkOffer several options.Jan 27 04:43
gde33howabout a contract with your service providerJan 27 04:43
iophkNo ISPs that I know of offer gated communities in that way.Jan 27 04:44
iophkYou need to set up your own paywall..Jan 27 04:44

gde33some sort of system that makes it worth to create contentJan 27 04:49
iophkDefine content.Jan 27 04:49
gde33say you sit yourself down and write a bookJan 27 04:49
gde33now you are going to publish it on the internetJan 27 04:50
iophkSo far the net is empty with no info at all out there.  Not even one service or product yet.  We've got all this connectivity and waiting with no results yet...Jan 27 04:50
gde33now you need multinationals because that is net neutralityJan 27 04:50
gde33writing for the enemyJan 27 04:50
gde33lolJan 27 04:50
iophkPublish via a publisher.  There are many to choose from.  It can be a small publisher.Jan 27 04:50
gde33it wont workJan 27 04:51
gde33it just doesnt workJan 27 04:51
iophkNope. No e-books have happened yet.  We're still waiting for them.Jan 27 04:51
MinceRyeah, it's not like people are making money by selling booksJan 27 04:51
MinceRright nowJan 27 04:51
gde33it doesnt work because the deal doesn't depend on the quality of the workJan 27 04:51
MinceRin the model you propose, it would depend a lot less on the quality of the workJan 27 04:51
MinceRit would depend only on which isp manages to get a monopoly where you liveJan 27 04:52
gde33not that I dont apperciate the crusade against the monopoly but we seem to have lost that war alreadyJan 27 04:52
MinceRso let's give up and hand everything else to the winners, too?Jan 27 04:53
gde33if you want a stable system you have to accept a bit of bad works that go unpunishedJan 27 04:53

gde33I could most likely still make a popular website, but when I did I hated the attention.Jan 27 04:55
gde33you need thousands of people, then you still earn nothing.Jan 27 04:55
gde33you have to plaster the pages with advertisement to get tiny revenue :PJan 27 04:56
iophkThen you need a better business plan...Jan 27 04:56
gde33the web needs oneJan 27 04:56
gde33the content creator should be judged by his content, now how he plays the search engine lottoJan 27 04:56

gde33not the userJan 27 04:57
MinceRor whoever diverts the user's browser using whatever exploit worksJan 27 04:57
gde33the packages should be tailored just like television stationsJan 27 04:58
gde33just like you get a bunch of magazinesJan 27 04:58
gde33because the web is so big you can do huge numbers of themJan 27 04:58
iophkI see.  The net is too open and the cable tv model is more appropriate, you say.Jan 27 04:58
gde33it has it's advantagesJan 27 04:59
DaemonFCI think that DRM might be losing more sales for them than it's worth.Jan 27 04:59
iophkI haven't seen any.  Most I've seen myself and heard from others is that the cable tv model, with bundling, is a liability.Jan 27 04:59
iophkDRM does cost sales.Jan 27 04:59
MinceR105810 < gde33> the packages should be tailored just like television stationsJan 27 05:00
gde33we would get ourselves the FOSS package and read delicious FOSS blogs the whole monthJan 27 05:00

gde33you still get the normal internetJan 27 05:01
MinceRyeah, if crippled is "normal"Jan 27 05:01

MinceRthen don't do anythingJan 27 05:02
DaemonFCGood luck getting people to pay for what they will gladly take for free right now.Jan 27 05:02
gde33the FOSS subscription will give you access to a web entirely without people who didn't buy that subscriptionJan 27 05:02
DaemonFCThey need to monetize the "piracy" somehow.Jan 27 05:02
gde33that is the added valueJan 27 05:02
gde33finally a whole web with nothing but apple usersJan 27 05:03

gde33[17:03:45] <schestowitz_bed2> [09:30] <gde33> I'm trying to look from the perspective of content creatorsJan 27 14:15

gde33[17:05:10] <schestowitz_bed2> the problem is, the cartel sometimes owns the cable companies too, or vice versaJan 27 14:15
gde33you think you can force out the artJan 27 14:15
iophkHow much did VanGogh get paid?Jan 27 14:15
gde33NOTHINGJan 27 14:15
gde33that was good right?Jan 27 14:16
iophkNot much of a business model then...Jan 27 14:16
gde33that is your ideal model?Jan 27 14:16
gde33I only hear selling content is a terrible idea, one should get into the bitcoin ponzi in steadJan 27 14:16
gde33very homogenious standardsJan 27 14:17
gde33I wish this channel cost 100 euro per monthJan 27 14:18
iophkpay Roy then.Jan 27 14:19
gde33it would add some urgency to the debate, I would be helped by thatJan 27 14:19
gde33I've tried constructive discussion with people on the web for many years, if I look at the results I have to say far I've been wasting my time and effort.Jan 27 14:20
iophkThis afternoon you were hinting at a tax on net traffic to subsidize something or other.Jan 27 14:21
gde33yeah, then you asked for evidence, then I explained how it keeps out uninterested people, l gave an example, then you argued a sucker is born every minute as to prove the topic was unintersting? something like that?Jan 27 14:22
iophkpaying for the sake of paying? Jan 27 14:22
gde33exactlyJan 27 14:22
iophkNo return for that payment is for suckers.Jan 27 14:22
gde33no no, the payment is to keep out that opinionJan 27 14:23
gde33to make sure you are not there to elaborate on your skepticismJan 27 14:23
gde33not that it isn't validJan 27 14:23
iophkStart an alternate internet for people with more dollars than senseJan 27 14:23
gde33that is what i'm wondering about basically, how that would lookJan 27 14:23
iophkThere's a lot of dark fiber out there.Jan 27 14:23
gde33we can only guess I think?Jan 27 14:24
iophkNot if you have a business plan and enough money to back it up.Jan 27 14:24
gde33you also need to be motivated to go do something like thatJan 27 14:24
gde33in what way do I benefit from paying for googles bandwith?Jan 27 14:25
gde33Makes it sound as if the price they charge has something to do with the cost of what they are sellingJan 27 14:26
gde33it doesntJan 27 14:26
gde33they are just looking to max out proffitJan 27 14:26
iophkGoogle is paying for Google's bandwidth currently.Jan 27 14:26
iophkThey pay big money for that.Jan 27 14:26
gde33trueJan 27 14:26
gde33it is that atractive to own the infrastucture your business runs onJan 27 14:27
gde33I do completely agree with the ideology of customer own infrasturctureJan 27 14:27
gde33with most people it is just pearls for pigsJan 27 14:27
iophkYou have to continue with common carriage or it just will choke.Jan 27 14:28
gde33sorry not sure what you are trying to explain hereJan 27 14:28
iophkThe Internet is a network of networks.  If they don't allow the traffic of others, then nothing functions except for a crappy little zone.  That's what has already been tried and already failed.Jan 27 14:29
gde33that a non neutral internet would drown out the free things?Jan 27 14:29
iophkAnd the paid thingsJan 27 14:29
iophkespeially the paid thingsJan 27 14:29
gde33depends how you structure the paymentsJan 27 14:29

gde33let me put it like this: In what way do I benefit from net neturality as a content creator?Jan 27 14:31
MinceRyou get to compete at allJan 27 14:31
MinceRusers can access your content without having their connection to it crippledJan 27 14:31
MinceRyou get a chanceJan 27 14:32
gde33oh but they do, I can only afford very minimalistic hostingJan 27 14:32
MinceRwithout net neutrality, you don't even get a chanceJan 27 14:32
gde33how would that work?Jan 27 14:32
MinceRhow would what work?Jan 27 14:32
gde33not getting a chanceJan 27 14:32
MinceRlet's say you host some videos on your siteJan 27 14:33
MinceRthe user's isp has a deal with google, so they offer youtube; and they offer their own siteJan 27 14:33
gde33cant afford the bandwith but ok, lets assume I couldJan 27 14:33
MinceRyou don't have a deal with them because you're a competitor and you're small fryJan 27 14:33
gde33yesJan 27 14:33
MinceRif they're feeling gracious the user isn't entirely banned from your siteJan 27 14:33
MinceRthey just don't get to stream the video at allJan 27 14:33
MinceRit's like they're using a 9600 bps modem to access the siteJan 27 14:34
gde33the user paid for internet, he can have access to anything he wantsJan 27 14:34
MinceRyes, if they have net neutralityJan 27 14:34
MinceRif they don't, then the user can have access to anything the ISP wants him toJan 27 14:34
MinceRhowever the ISP wants him toJan 27 14:34
iophkat whatever lowered speeds the ISP wants him to...Jan 27 14:34
gde33start your own isp?Jan 27 14:35
iophknot enough because the other ISPs you connect to can stil choke youJan 27 14:35
MinceRwhere will you get the finds for that?Jan 27 14:35
gde33I think we will have exactly the same thing only in a different formatJan 27 14:35
MinceRand where will you provide service?Jan 27 14:35
MinceRs/find/fund/Jan 27 14:35
MinceRno, we don't even have nearly the same thingJan 27 14:35
MinceRof course, things get even worse if you used some p2p protocol to help with hostingJan 27 14:36
gde33you are saying that net neutrality will give the ISP the right to block websites?Jan 27 14:36
MinceRnormally, that does work (GNU/Linux iso distribution via BitTorrent, for example)Jan 27 14:36
gde33is that really the same topic?Jan 27 14:36
MinceRyes, among other thingsJan 27 14:36
MinceRpart of what a common carrier is about is that they aren't allowed to decide what to block and what to allow throughJan 27 14:36
MinceRbut if you don't have net neutrality, the ISPs will just block p2p protocols entirelyJan 27 14:37
gde33so the blocked content is just not availableJan 27 14:37
gde33you dont get access to all the books for exampleJan 27 14:37
MinceRit can be blocked entirelyJan 27 14:37
gde33you didn't pay for that > no accessJan 27 14:37
MinceRor it can be allowed but slowed down arbitrarilyJan 27 14:37
gde33Are we not creating a giant straw man for the ISP? Is there really no way to do this fairly?Jan 27 14:38
MinceRnoJan 27 14:38
MinceRthe way to do this fairly is called net neutralityJan 27 14:38
gde33as in no blocking of content, just additional packages?Jan 27 14:38
MinceRanything else is by definition unfairJan 27 14:38
MinceRthey won't phrase it as "blocking of content"Jan 27 14:39
MinceRfor a normal internet user, all of the internet is the defaultJan 27 14:39
MinceRfor a non-neutral greedy ISP, nothing is the default, everything is "additional"Jan 27 14:39
gde33I will explain it again, this time I will just convince you: The thing is, proof of work equals value.Jan 27 14:40
gde33you can create cryptographic hashees and sell those in stead of selling contentJan 27 14:40
iophkbitcoinJan 27 14:40
gde33but it will always be a pretend gameJan 27 14:40
gde33pretend valueJan 27 14:40
gde33so you are just pretending everything is free / worthlessJan 27 14:41
iophkyou're missing the point that it's all paid for alreadyJan 27 14:41
iophkno need to pay twiceJan 27 14:41
gde33not enoughJan 27 14:41
iophkpay Roy thenJan 27 14:42
gde33my point was payments for the sake of payments remember?Jan 27 14:42
iophkand a solution was offered.  Fund your alternative to the Internet.Jan 27 14:42
gde33if existing plots are all that terrible at granting things their value, what else can we think of?Jan 27 14:42
gde33but wasnt that what netneutrality aimed to prevent?Jan 27 14:43
gde33everyone will be against me just for trying to attribute value lolJan 27 14:44
iophkValue to what?Jan 27 14:44
gde33to everythingJan 27 14:44
iophkUse Flattr thenJan 27 14:44
gde33that will only work for 0% of my trafficJan 27 14:45
iophk Maybe it is already being compensated in proportion to its perceived value... Jan 27 14:46
gde33not an acceptable hypothesisJan 27 14:46
gde33you can go project that on your own creationsJan 27 14:47
iophkthe data seems to support itJan 27 14:47
gde33not at all actuallyJan 27 14:47
gde33I just hatted the attentionJan 27 14:47
gde33I dont like having attention from more people than I can answer toJan 27 14:47

gde33why do we have all this audience building he has to get into?Jan 27 15:30
MinceRbecause quite a lot of people want to be heardJan 27 15:31
gde33that doesnt make people less valuableJan 27 15:31
MinceRand listeners have limited timeJan 27 15:31
MinceRare you sure of that? :>Jan 27 15:31
gde33oh yes, I believe most of the problelms we can produce are based on not valuing people.Jan 27 15:32
gde33then moan when others dont value you eitherJan 27 15:32
MinceRif you do not value people, is that just another way of saying that people have zero value? :>Jan 27 15:32
gde33when you abuse people you get to be abused basicallyJan 27 15:32
MinceRi'd be fine with just not bothering each otherJan 27 15:33
MinceRbut for most people that's a concept too advancedJan 27 15:33
gde33MinceR: just that you value them less I supposeJan 27 15:33
gde33I believe in bothering people a little bitJan 27 15:33
gde33a friend of mine plays computer games all day, I call him an enabler. lolJan 27 15:34
gde33just to bother himJan 27 15:34
gde33I think people automatically live up to the expectation when you assert their valueJan 27 15:35
MinceRthey usually don'tJan 27 15:35
gde33have to do it the whole lifeJan 27 15:35
MinceRi learned that the hard wayJan 27 15:35
gde33sure, but we should die trying to convince them :)Jan 27 15:36
MinceRno thanksJan 27 15:36
gde33that is one of your valuable qualitiesJan 27 15:37
MinceRdon't worry, chances are i'll die eventuallyJan 27 15:37

MinceRs/one does/one dies/Jan 27 15:40
gde33we get to play our partJan 27 15:40
gde33maybe we are the ones without sins?Jan 27 15:40
gde33lolJan 27 15:40
MinceRthat depends on how you define 'sin'Jan 27 15:40
gde33I define it as who should throw the first stoneJan 27 15:40
MinceRcertain religious zealots who believe themselves to be experts on ethics believe that you're responsible for the sins of your ancestorsJan 27 15:41
MinceRwhich shows how much they really know about ethicsJan 27 15:41
gde33at least we get to suffer their sins Jan 27 15:41
MinceRyayJan 27 15:41
gde33but also enjoy their accomplishmentsJan 27 15:41
MinceRi was kinda hoping for more than just sufferingJan 27 15:41
gde33I had a dream a few days ago where I finally calculated why religion is nothing but an ego tripJan 27 15:42
gde33the idea one would be punished in the after life for what one doesJan 27 15:42
MinceRit's worse than an ego tripJan 27 15:42
gde33when I do something I dont care about thatJan 27 15:42
gde33I do things because they need doing, burning forever might just be worth itJan 27 15:42
MinceRit's a mental infection that poisons everythingJan 27 15:42
gde33we should have put George's head on a pike way back in 2001, then suffer the eternal punishment.Jan 27 15:43
gde33it would be totally worth itJan 27 15:43
MinceRdubya?Jan 27 15:43

gde33burn him at the stakeJan 27 15:43
gde33god can complant all he likes?Jan 27 15:43
gde33he is going to punish me?Jan 27 15:43
MinceR"God" does not exist.Jan 27 15:44
gde33that is suppose to stop me from doing the right thing?Jan 27 15:44
MinceRits definition is inconsistent with itself, therefore falseJan 27 15:44
gde33exactlyJan 27 15:44
gde33but my argument is that it is all rooted on egoistic behaviorJan 27 15:44

gde33the collective feeling of trying to do the right thingJan 27 15:45
MinceRand then you realized that they undermine the ability to reason? :>Jan 27 15:45
MinceRalso any possibility of toleranceJan 27 15:46
gde33that isn't an argument you can use to convince that personJan 27 15:46
gde33if you can show him he is all doing this for himself Jan 27 15:46
MinceRthere is no argument you can use to convince a religious zealot.Jan 27 15:46
gde33then that changes the whole storyJan 27 15:46
gde33I think there is a good compromise available.Jan 27 15:46
MinceRone of the main traits the memetic evolution of religion selects for is the immunization against removal and against competitorsJan 27 15:46
gde33we take all the good stuff offered by a relgion, then we put that in a new wrapper and ask non religious people to help with these good thingsJan 27 15:47
gde33then we would be willing to help themJan 27 15:47
MinceRif it isn't based on reason, then it doesn't have a good foundationJan 27 15:47
MinceRand if it is, then it isn't religion.Jan 27 15:47
gde33some of it can be based on reasonJan 27 15:48
gde33if we the people start a non proffit to make a better world you better not get the idea to build a church from the donationsJan 27 15:48
gde33we might need to hire a few people to do the administration and we might need a buildingJan 27 15:49
gde33if the church has a ready made building available for this it seems usableJan 27 15:49
gde33hell, they would be doing the lords work?Jan 27 15:50

MinceRnot sure what there is to handle about painful self-exterminationJan 27 16:02
gde33brainscans for politicians and a diploma before you get to voteJan 27 16:02
MinceRthat won't helpJan 27 16:03
gde33I had some fun discussions with people about those 2Jan 27 16:03
gde33why wont it help?Jan 27 16:03
MinceRit merely installs a centralized authority that decides who gets to run for office and who gets to voteJan 27 16:03
MinceRsure, they'll claim it's for objective reasonsJan 27 16:03
MinceRbut it won't beJan 27 16:03
gde33not if it cant contain the evilJan 27 16:03
gde33if the evil cant manifest it cant run the placeJan 27 16:03
MinceRit willJan 27 16:03
MinceRit's everywhereJan 27 16:03
gde33we know that empathic people feel the pain of othersJan 27 16:04
MinceRand people are trying hard to make it worseJan 27 16:04
gde33I wouldnt mind making that a requirement for politiciansJan 27 16:04
MinceRhow would you enforce it?Jan 27 16:04
gde33just eliminate the psychopathsJan 27 16:04
MinceRhow would you do that?Jan 27 16:04
gde33with brainscans and other testsJan 27 16:04
MinceRpsychopathy is probably the most difficult kind of mental disorder to diagnose objectivelyJan 27 16:05
gde33we dont need objectivityJan 27 16:05
MinceRpart of it is that the psychopath tries to hide their own disorderJan 27 16:05
gde33we need certaintyJan 27 16:05
MinceRwe do need objectivityJan 27 16:05
gde33empathic people get seizurs when you show them choped up bodies on a monitorJan 27 16:05
MinceRwithout objectivity, you get people deciding who gets whatJan 27 16:05
MinceRand corruptionJan 27 16:05
gde33if you can just sit there without any emotion you are not the man for the jobJan 27 16:05
MinceRsame system as before, maybe with a few more levelsJan 27 16:05
MinceRi doubt that everyone who's desensitized to images of mutilated bodies is a psychopathJan 27 16:06
gde33if you have an amount of people some will test obviously empathic, some will test obviously psychopatic and some will test average.Jan 27 16:06
MinceRi'm pretty sure it wasn't on any of the checklists i've seenJan 27 16:07
gde33I dont think it is a sexy idea to put the clear psychopath in powerJan 27 16:07
MinceRi'm pretty sure Cleckley didn't mention it in Mask of Sanity :>Jan 27 16:07
gde33he doesn't have what it takesJan 27 16:07
MinceRhe'll speak to the people and make them believe that he does have what it takesJan 27 16:07
gde33We could argue about average people but the cases where it is all to obvious should be eliminated.Jan 27 16:07
MinceRalso, tests can be corruptedJan 27 16:07
gde33these are people who dont have activity in that part of their brainJan 27 16:07
gde33you are setting up shop for warsJan 27 16:08
MinceRif the people doing the test aren't willing to lie about the results, the people in power will replace themJan 27 16:08
gde33you can certainly have a few cases where it isn't easy to get a good ratingJan 27 16:08
gde33just publish the data?Jan 27 16:08
MinceRalso, i'm pretty sure a psychopath could fake discomfortJan 27 16:08
gde33if you want to be a public figure, wouldnt you want to know this about yourself?Jan 27 16:09
gde33to what extend you are faking empathy?Jan 27 16:09
MinceRthey could tamper the data before publishing itJan 27 16:09
gde33it wont make you less of a personJan 27 16:09
gde33do you think a truly empathic person could just start a war for proffit?Jan 27 16:10
gde33personally, if you come to my desk to suggest such a thing I might just have to end youJan 27 16:10
gde33lolJan 27 16:10
MinceRno, i think a psychopath could easily fake being empathicJan 27 16:10
MinceRfor your testJan 27 16:10
gde33he cantJan 27 16:10
MinceRthen they get into power and do whatever they wanted to do all alongJan 27 16:10
gde33the biological effect is to strongJan 27 16:10
MinceRwhile faking whatever emotions they needJan 27 16:10
gde33people feel as if it is their finger being cut when looking at itJan 27 16:10
MinceRread Mask of Sanity :>Jan 27 16:11
gde33there is no evidence such tests can be faked but still it would add a layer of securityJan 27 16:11
MinceRno, it wouldn'tJan 27 16:11
MinceRit would merely add more hooks for corruptionJan 27 16:11
MinceRand more chances to attack people the oligarchy doesn't want in powerJan 27 16:11

MinceRfrom the outsideJan 27 16:12
gde33or do you doubt there are such cases?Jan 27 16:12
MinceRalso, by the very nature of such testing there would be a small number of people making a decisionJan 27 16:13
MinceRwhich would be easily subvertedJan 27 16:13
gde33the information could just be presented to the voterJan 27 16:13
MinceRthe voter is not a trained psychiatristJan 27 16:13
gde33you are showing empathy to people who dont know what it meansJan 27 16:13
gde33why would you bother with that?Jan 27 16:13
MinceRand any discrepancy could be explained as a different interpretation of the dataJan 27 16:13

MinceRpoliticians already do thatJan 27 16:14
gde33they will think of it as your weaknessJan 27 16:14
MinceRthey'll present the data and their decisionJan 27 16:14

gde33sureJan 27 16:14
MinceRand another expert will easily determined that the decision is bogusJan 27 16:14
gde33you can have the tests done independentlyJan 27 16:14
MinceRwhile the ones on the politician's side will agree with it, no matter whatJan 27 16:15
gde33the other expert deserves a fair hearingJan 27 16:15

gde33I'm still talking about the extreme cases where people have pretty much reverted to using nothing but their lizard brainJan 27 16:15

MinceRand there are a lot of parties who try to get nominatedJan 27 16:42
gde33we can require basic knowledge of each optionJan 27 16:42

gde33without knowledge of what the choices are your choice cant be considered as valauble as the next guyJan 27 16:42
MinceRand someone will tell the voters on their side what the right answers areJan 27 16:42
gde33at first the test should be kintergarden levelJan 27 16:43
gde33seriouslyJan 27 16:43
gde33most voters only know the names of the top 3 optionsJan 27 16:43

gde33technically the correct responseJan 27 16:46
gde33If such a system would be taken over it would still allow for greater citizen participation?Jan 27 16:49

gde33smaller numbers but more influence?Jan 27 16:49

DaemonFC(Emphasis is mine)Jan 27 19:26
DaemonFCIn other words, not even all westerners, only the very rich ones. And I'm sure that even post-Obamacare, insurance companies will figure out some way to "discourage" customers that cost them $5,750 a month in drugs alone. People that are that sick are the reason Medicare and Medicaid exist. They're made a burden of the public because private insurers don't want those customers, only relatively healthy ones. That's why those programs are allowed Jan 27 19:26
DaemonFCto exist. It's privatized profits and socialized losses. Lemon Socialism.Jan 27 19:26

In fact, the world (outdoor) and society (communication) is too good to be wasted, esp. if the alternative is a one-way broadcast (data-pushing) apparatus which treats us like fetuses.Jan 28 07:13

schestowitz__iophk: I habe some posts scheduled for tonightJan 28 08:59
iophkcoolJan 28 08:59
schestowitz__I have lots planned for yesterday, but Seagate drive arrive and it was as broken as the one it replacedJan 28 09:00
schestowitz__Burned 4 hours of my time, killed my appetiate, and even ruined my morningJan 28 09:00
schestowitz__I wonder if a company can be held legally liable for replacing faulty with faulty under "warrany"Jan 28 09:00
schestowitz__Just a total waste of time, would be better to use the time to just buy a new driveJan 28 09:00
iophkI've heard that some send refurbished drives as warranty replacements.Jan 28 09:01
iophkHow long was the warranty? 1,2,5 years?Jan 28 09:01
schestowitz__Tonight I need to set up NRPE on dozens of Debian servers, then I can post lots of good articles again, can pick up pace again this year, and am getting fibre next month...Jan 28 09:01
schestowitz__2 years Jan 28 09:01
schestowitz__the new drive sort of hangs up randomlyJan 28 09:02
schestowitz__Sometimes while formattingJan 28 09:02
iophkThere was a recent report rating Seagate as very low on reliabi.lityJan 28 09:02
iophkHitachi was best in the report.Jan 28 09:02
schestowitz__I need to focus on TuxMachiens migration, so I'll put off any futher work on the drive. I will do a thorough fsck thius weekend and use it to prove they sent me garbageJan 28 09:02
schestowitz__Segates's official account in twitter already stepped in for damage controlJan 28 09:03
schestowitz__I got Hitachi as a replacement for a bad laptop drive in my CompaqJan 28 09:03
schestowitz__IIRC it lasted for many yearsJan 28 09:03
schestowitz__When I tried it in 2001, around 10 years later, I think it did get some inode issues (under DSL), but that was the last time I played with that old laptop (32 MB of RAM)Jan 28 09:04
schestowitz__Hitachi=IBMJan 28 09:04
schestowitz__Is that something that's in China's hands now too?Jan 28 09:04
schestowitz__IBM makes me think, maybe the future realy is IT staff losing jobs to China (the Symphony team is largely Chinese) and China is going to just buy or overrise US brandsJan 28 09:05
schestowitz__And then there's IndiaJan 28 09:05
schestowitz__China, reportedly, is now getting more involved in software, just like IndiaJan 28 09:06
schestowitz__huiman resources (time) are cheap thereJan 28 09:06
iophkTheir R&D may not be so good but then the US has been cutting and cutting R&D for years now.Jan 28 09:06
schestowitz__They can do extreme programming, like having 3 people working on a program at once, spotting issues like they do in factoriesJan 28 09:06
schestowitz__My siuster works with Chinese programmers who are in GE, and she's says they're not so good.... yet GE has been dropping US workers and hiring in China for a whileJan 28 09:07
schestowitz__My brother's old company did the same with India, and some said that the cost of fixing their programming mistakes (I actually think they have fantastic programmers) is higher than the savings of outsourcing the jobJan 28 09:08
schestowitz__Mass production paradigm is being ytested in s/w nowJan 28 09:08
schestowitz__See MicrosoftJan 28 09:08
schestowitz__Around Vista they send the programming to IndiaJan 28 09:08
schestowitz__Same with AdobeJan 28 09:08
schestowitz__And look what happenedJan 28 09:08
schestowitz__Saved money on wages, but the software is not necessarily better, to say the leastJan 28 09:09
schestowitz__It's good for managers, perhaps, but even that's doubtab;eJan 28 09:09
iophkM$ has never had good quality though.  And I can't recall when Adobe last was good.Jan 28 09:09
schestowitz__Class war is now also a war t devalue IT pros, driving their wages down, increasing working hours, stress, etc.Jan 28 09:10
schestowitz__Automation experts too are no longer valuedJan 28 09:10
schestowitz__Like outsourcing the outsiurcersJan 28 09:10
schestowitz__Eventually the outsourcers too will see themselves replaced by thiose whom they promoteJan 28 09:10
schestowitz__FOSS is one way to reduce costsJan 28 09:10
iophkSaves effort, too.Jan 28 09:11
schestowitz__and then sort of justify the expense of hiring expensive staffJan 28 09:11
schestowitz__Like people who manage 1000 servers at onceJan 28 09:11
schestowitz__with no costs associated with the automation (puppet, nagios, etc.) involvesJan 28 09:11
schestowitz__*vedJan 28 09:11

schestowitz__The FOSS SMBs are good to work forJan 28 09:12
schestowitz__They have large companies as clientsJan 28 09:12
schestowitz__staff can work from home, bossing minimalJan 28 09:12
schestowitz__People motivated by eagerness to deploy FOSSJan 28 09:13
schestowitz__An ideaological boss of sortsJan 28 09:13

schestowitz__TPP - sounds good, freedom... trade...Jan 28 09:22
schestowitz__Frzcking- cool, mate, saves me in energy billsJan 28 09:22
iophkReminds me a little of how Groklaw and other sites were blocked during the OOXML scandal due to a 'contract dispute'  Funny how nothing like that has happened before or since.  I guess with the BTPC, some sites will get blocked "accidentally" at key times.Jan 28 09:22
schestowitz__Censorship - well, think about the childrenJan 28 09:22

schestowitz__on what grounds was it?Jan 28 09:23
schestowitz__WowJan 28 09:24
iophkSome were blocked directly others because the DNS they used were blocked.Jan 28 09:24
schestowitz__I wonder if i should be careful with the photos of drone victimsJan 28 09:24
schestowitz__They could use that as an excuse for blocking. I never had someone reporting to me that s/he had been blocked, not even in censorship-happy nationsJan 28 09:24
iophkIt was interesting that the pro-standards people were clustered around certain companies and blocking that one company could block directly / indirectly the sites.  It let up hours after the vote.Jan 28 09:24
iophk*a fewJan 28 09:25
schestowitz__Not even when I wrote a lot morew and get around 3 million hits per week (now it's less than that)Jan 28 09:25

schestowitz_bed2That's one of the reasons your E17 desktop seems so smooth. If you turn on Kmail, that effect will go away.Jan 28 11:04
schestowitz_bed2KDE, to their credit, is working to make that search less obnoxious but I don't see how it can work. The only time I used Nepomuk was when Kmail demanded it for search. Even though I limited it to my email, it consumed 50 to 100% of my cpu for a week or two. It finally calmed down.Jan 28 11:05
schestowitz_bed2The first and only time I tried to actually search my email using the fancy database, it deleted all of my email. The damn thing froze as soon as I pressed the search button. I waited for it to do what it wanted and was horrified to see that everything had been erased.Jan 28 11:05
schestowitz_bed2Those two things, depending on database for core functions and risk of complete email loss, are why I'm going to use Trinity for my email. Wheezy has the last version of Kmail that I'd recommend to anyone, so I recommend other email clients to new users now.Jan 28 11:05

DaemonFCApparently, the iBeacon spyware was introduced in iOS 7, but the hardware to enable it has been in all iPhones and dormant since iPhone 4.Jan 28 15:20
DaemonFCIf you walk into a store and start getting alerts from that store on your iPhone, that's why. But it's just as likely to be used silently to track where you are in their store, accurate to within a couple of inches, so that they can profile how the customer shops in their stores and design layouts that get people to buy more stuff they don't need.Jan 28 15:20
DaemonFCiBeacon meets the entire definition of spyware. It's something that the user wouldn't approve of, that leaks out personal information to untrusted third parties, and it can't be shut off or removed, even when you know about it. Jan 28 15:20

schestowitz_bed2"Sorry, but a lot of this still doesn't make sense to me. This concludes with "If you are going to use a US based search engine, it might as well be Google." which is absolutely insane if you actually read the article. All of the reasons stated for not using DDG are equally applicable to Google so why use them as an argument against DDG and to use Google? It may be unfair to gain users through exploiting NSA stories, but Google is Jan 29 11:04

schestowitz_bed2If you are going to let yourself be spied on, you might as well get something out of it.

schestowitz_bed2I wish that I knew of an honest alternative that gave excellent results. That is changing through copyright/DMCA takedown censorship and other pressures, but at the time of writing, it was true. I wish that I knew if TOR or proxies would protect your privacy but I don't.

DaemonFCIndiana is also being robbed by the company that Mitch Daniels sold the toll roads to. He gave them a 75 year contract in 2006, all of the money is gone, and the company is claiming that Indiana owes it money because it is getting less toll road fees than it thought it would when it signed the contract.Jan 29 17:49
DaemonFCEven without that, they would make more money in the 75 years than they paid for the contract.Jan 29 17:49
DaemonFCPrivatization is often proposed by right-wing politicians who claim that it will save money. The companies that get the contracts almost never run things cheaper than the state was. The first thing that the toll road company did in Indiana was jack up the toll and stop maintaining the roads. They're full of potholes now, and the fee for driving on them has doubled.Jan 29 17:49
DaemonFCIndiana's Republicans passed a law that gives them a pass to drive on the toll road for free. Many Indiana House and Senate Democrats refused to use the pass, and kept paying the toll. Jan 29 17:49

schestowitz__To me it's a no-brainer: Tuxera's been selling this driver for years now, it's based on Brad Boyer's source code, they got caught (thanks to Asus). We've got a proof, that they've been selling a product which is a 90% result of hard work of people from our community.Jan 30 08:12
schestowitz__I believe It is our common job to keep things right and fair.Jan 30 08:12
schestowitz__I do feel for Samsung being caught between two trains of M$'s patents and Linux' free license. But the fact that they've been selling a product based on code from Linux tree, for years, and not returning any money they literally stole from honest developers who contributed their free time to support FOSS and GPL, makes me feel quite bad. They didn't have to do that, but nobody forced them to use the code from the vfat driver as a Jan 30 08:12
schestowitz__base. In the end they didn't pay any fines, they ended up being heroes by open-sourcing the driver.Jan 30 08:13
schestowitz__I am 100% sure it is exactly the same case this time, except there were no patents involved. It never will be neither fair in case with exFat nor in case with HFS+ even if they give up the source to the product they most likely originally stole from Brad. None of us have money for a lawyer to sue violators of GPL and companies seem to be happy to abuse this fact.Jan 30 08:13
schestowitz__They won't pay anybody for stealing the product, even though they made a fortune out of it.Jan 30 08:13
schestowitz__I have a small question:Jan 30 08:13
schestowitz__Let's imagine for a second they haven't used Brad's GPL'd source as a base for their product, but still sold an HFS+ driver written from scratch under GPL (even a single copy)...Jan 30 08:13

schestowitz__Have a small question, off the record: why do companies get sued for let's say, using software they didn't purchase in their products, but when it comes down to selling products based on free software, in violation to GPL, companies don't get in trouble? It just feels wrong to me that we can only count on them to just release the source once they get caught and not pay any money they stole by using readily available open software? If Jan 30 08:13

schestowitz__"Jan 30 14:24
schestowitz__Very true. Most of the community managers I've dealt with were less interested in listening and understanding than they were with having me swallow a set of talking points. They waste everyone's time.Jan 30 14:24
schestowitz__After some thought, I like the term community representative and think that it's a legitimate thing to do. Communications manager, even that sounds like perception management. I agree with other people here that "leader" and "coordinator" also imply control or manipulation. Representative is an honest term and implies two way communication representing the company to the community and the community to the company. That's a valid and Jan 30 14:24

schestowitz__say you have site A with DNS pointing to XJan 31 05:41
schestowitz__and site B with DNS pointing to YJan 31 05:41
schestowitz__when you move DNS from X to YJan 31 05:42
schestowitz__can you expect no downtime?Jan 31 05:42
iophkI think so, butJan 31 05:42
schestowitz__i see requests served OK, but it seems like some machines (esp. in our house) still go nowhere when looking up the addressJan 31 05:42
schestowitz__I think that nameserver migrations without downtimes are sometimes like that, but I want to be sure before we leave the house for 5 hoursJan 31 05:43
iophkit looks like also a matter of changing authoritative name serversJan 31 05:43
schestowitz__on the same network, the tablet reaches the old serverJan 31 05:43
schestowitz__And the phone and laptop reach nowhereJan 31 05:43
iophkIt may be your cacheJan 31 05:44
iophkOn two networks, I get the new ip for the hostnameJan 31 05:44
iophklemme check one more...Jan 31 05:44
schestowitz__gotchaJan 31 05:44
schestowitz__Is this host-level cache like /etc/hosts?Jan 31 05:45
schestowitz__Becfuse changing broewsers has no effectJan 31 05:45
schestowitz__Wher eis DNS cache?Jan 31 05:45
iophkThe third one is ok.Jan 31 05:46
schestowitz__maybeit'a cached at the hubJan 31 05:46
iophkI'm not sure how it is all cached, if it is still looking for the old name server it will still get the old address.Jan 31 05:46
iophkWhich nameserver to use might be cachedJan 31 05:46
schestowitz__the problem is. it does not even connect to the old server, escept the tabletJan 31 05:47
schestowitz__it accesses the old siteJan 31 05:47
schestowitz__the others get nowhereJan 31 05:47
iophkDid you get the old registrar to drop the name?Jan 31 05:48
schestowitz__nope. not afaikJan 31 05:48
schestowitz__Maybe it checks the IP against the DNS and finds a mismatcxh or somethingJan 31 05:48
schestowitz__But it does seem to be working for everyone (so far as I know) except usJan 31 05:49
iophkmight be two registrars fighting it out for the authoritative answerJan 31 05:49
schestowitz__I'll try my web proxyJan 31 05:49
iophkwhat about setting the old registrar to point to the new, static ip?Jan 31 05:49

gde33lets not do car chases and stop carsJan 31 17:22
gde33if you dont like it we can run you over or something equally appropriateJan 31 17:22

gde33not as easy as you thinkJan 31 17:23

gde33I also proposed a speed limiterJan 31 17:28
MinceRanother great ideaJan 31 17:28
MinceRit's not like some accidents could be avoided by speeding away from the source of the dangerJan 31 17:29
gde33people have this idea that people working on roads have to get killed regularlyJan 31 17:29
MinceR(and who cares anyway)Jan 31 17:29
MinceRwell, that explains these half-baked ideas, thenJan 31 17:29
gde33the max speed outside my house is 5 km/h there are no sidewalksJan 31 17:29
gde33it even use to have speed bumpsJan 31 17:30

MinceRi'm sure they saved lots of money with no sidewalksJan 31 17:30
MinceRsidewalks are expensive stuff!Jan 31 17:30
gde33it is in the way the blocks are buildJan 31 17:31
MinceRyes, "badly"Jan 31 17:31
gde33basically it is one big sidewalkJan 31 17:31
gde33cars are suppose to drive walking speed to the parkingJan 31 17:31
MinceRwhat are cars doing on it then?Jan 31 17:31
MinceRcars don't belong on the sidewalk.Jan 31 17:31
gde33sure, but there are other areas with other speed limits that dont work eitherJan 31 17:31
gde33the max is 120 on the highway, people drive 140Jan 31 17:32
gde33you are very annoying if you drive 120Jan 31 17:32
MinceRmost people can't handle drivingJan 31 17:32
MinceRthose who can't do it shouldn't be allowed toJan 31 17:32

DaemonFCMicrosoft has sued a computer store that was selling refurbished laptops that came with a Windows Vista license, which had been re-imaged with the same version of Windows Vista that they came with.Jan 31 21:44
TechrightsBot-trwww.press-citizen.com | NO TITLE  [ http://ur1.ca/gjhgg ]Jan 31 21:44
DaemonFCMicrosoft claims that exercising your rights under the First Sale Doctrine is "counterfeiting software".Jan 31 21:44
DaemonFCIn other words, everyone that is selling their old computer and keeps Windows on it for the next owner is doing the same thing that this company did. Microsoft says you have no right to do that, which flies in the face of Supreme Court precedent. (It's the same as selling a used book or a used CD, which is totally legal.)Jan 31 21:44
DaemonFCI'm not suggesting that it's good to give someone else a copy of Windows.Jan 31 21:44
DaemonFCIt's better to give them software that respects their freedom, such as GNU/Linux. Nobody has ever been sued for "counterfeiting" GNU/Linux, because software counterfeiting is impossible, and everyone has the guaranteed right to share it under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

DaemonFCMicrosoft produces rubbish products and is a has-been dying company. This is one of their last gasps of frustration. If MS wins, I hope that more people switch to a Mac for their new computer. Jan 31 22:10

DaemonFCApple software has most of the same problems regarding lack of user freedoms.Jan 31 22:10
DaemonFCThey haven't sued anyone for reselling their Mac that I am aware of, but they wouldn't need to. Software is kind of a hook for them to sell their expensive computers in the first place. Jan 31 22:10

DaemonFCVista 8.1 was also gratis, but did not give users freedom.Jan 31 22:11
DaemonFCIn fact, every new version of either OS takes more freedom away from the user. Jan 31 22:11
schestowitz__Not here, not yet, although the Tories try to make it soJan 31 22:11
DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Jan 31 22:11
DaemonFCSo, why would I care about Microsoft threatening a company for distributing its software?Jan 31 22:11
DaemonFCWell, first, it threatens everyone who has purchased a license to use anything that is bound by copyright.Jan 31 22:11
DaemonFCSecondly, it would not mean fewer copies of Windows in existence. Every user and company would simply stop reselling existing licenses, and pay Microsoft even more money for new licenses, which is worse than simply reselling an existing license, which would give them even more money to attack users and their freedom with more malicious products.Jan 31 22:11
DaemonFCIt would be better if every copy of Windows was destroyed, but giving them more money for new licenses just makes two problems where there was only one problem before. It's counterproductive. Jan 31 22:11
DaemonFCerr, because it wouldJan 31 22:12
DaemonFCKeep an eye on this case. It threatens the entire first sale doctrine.Jan 31 22:13

DaemonFCschestowitz__: Yeah. I had good insurance before I turned 18.Jan 31 22:14

DaemonFCWithin a year, I had sinus surgery, a tonsillectomy, all my wisdom teeth removed, etc. Jan 31 22:15
DaemonFCI actually got all my wisdom teeth removed and then lost my dental AND heath insurance the very next day.Jan 31 22:16
DaemonFC*healthJan 31 22:16
DaemonFCAnd I was lucky I could get in at the last minute, because 12 years ago, it cost over $2,500 to get your wisdom teeth removed.Jan 31 22:17
DaemonFCThey weren't causing me a problem, yet, but I hurried up and got it done because there was no telling when it would be a problem and where I was going to find $2,500 at.Jan 31 22:17
DaemonFCThe pain medication they gave me didn't work, and the dentist would not speak to me, or call in a new prescription, because I was no longer insured.Jan 31 22:19

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 17:25
DaemonFCFirst of all, their "Law of Similars" is ridiculous pseudo-scientific garbage. It makes a ridiculous claim that water has a "memory" of everything it has been exposed to, that the effect on the human body of a substance is greater the more diluted it is, and that the substance in question will cure diseases that cause similar symptoms of the substance that is claimed to be the active ingredient in the homeopathic solution. (The hair of the dog Feb 01 17:25
DaemonFCthat bit you?)/Feb 01 17:25
DaemonFCSecondly, there's no way to achieve the dilutions that they claim. One duck liver and heart would be more than enough to make all of the "Oscillococcinum" sold in the world (supposedly a flu remedy), and it would require more than 100 times more water than exists on the planet Earth to dilute it to the claimed dilution.Feb 01 17:25
DaemonFCThird, and purely ironic, the biggest company behind "homeopathic remedies" is a French company called Boiron, which rhymes with "Moron".Feb 01 17:25
DaemonFCEven though homeopathy is pseudo-scientific crap, it has a large base of followers, and you can find their little bottles of water and placebo pills at your local Walgreens. It's a multi-billion dollar per year business. Feb 01 17:25
DaemonFCAnd on that note, I'm going to take a leak. Please enjoy drinking an 8C dilution of my urine. I hope it's refreshing.Feb 01 17:25

DaemonFCPerhaps he also has a toothpaste squeezer in his bathroom. The world might never know.Feb 01 18:52
DaemonFCI bet he got a great deal on his latest 11,000 square foot house, his several luxury cars, the car elevator... Maybe he even shops at Mens Wearhouse for his suits. You know that if you buy an $800 suite there, that sometimes they give you an extra one for only $100?Feb 01 18:52
DaemonFCI bet he has plenty of tips for how people earning $8 an hour and no health insurance can live the high life. They just have to work even harder and eventually they'll "get what they deserve".Feb 01 18:52
DaemonFCIn other words, perhaps they will be working for $8.05 an hour this time next year if they behave. Feb 01 18:52

DaemonFCI usually wear t-shirts that I got in packs of four for about $10 and some jeans from kmart.Feb 01 18:57
MinceRespecially such impractical ones (suits)Feb 01 18:57
DaemonFCI'm in compliance with the laws that state that public nudity is a crime.Feb 01 18:58

DaemonFCI don't even know why I squeeze the toothpaste out of the tube. When I was at the post office one day, the thought occurred to me that Colgate had sent out a $1 off coupon in the junk mail that week, and Kroger had the toothpaste for $1 per 4.6 ounce tube.Feb 01 19:18
DaemonFCSo I fished all of the coupons out of the trash at the post office and bought over 100 tubes of toothpaste the next time I went to the store for milk and bread.Feb 01 19:19
DaemonFCThat was definitely one of my stranger shopping trips.Feb 01 19:19
DaemonFCI did the same thing with Edge shave gel. I had dozens of $1 off coupons, and Kroger clearanced out the "sensitive skin" one for 88 cents, so I bought everything on the shelf, and then went into the back to use the restroom. On my way out, I looked for more unopened cases of it and found several of them, so I bought those too.Feb 01 19:20
DaemonFCThey paid me 22 cents per can.Feb 01 19:21
DaemonFC:)Feb 01 19:21
DaemonFCI managed to find 52 cans of it in total.Feb 01 19:21

DaemonFC J. R. Bob Dobbs (formerly ZOMG Pink Ponies) says:Feb 01 19:25
DaemonFCWhich ones do right-wingers actually find controversial?Feb 01 19:25
DaemonFCPlease list them and why you think each one is controversial.Feb 01 19:25
DaemonFCIf you could also provide information about which sections of which orders violate any particular section of the constitution or the United States Code, please provide this information as well.Feb 01 19:25
DaemonFCThank you.Feb 01 19:25
DaemonFCIf you need help, here's the entire list with links to the text of each order. There are 166 in total, and most of them make for some pretty dry reading.Feb 01 19:25

DaemonFCTo be totally fair, federal agencies do tend to expand until there's nothing left that they don't do.Feb 01 19:33
DaemonFCThe department of agriculture even has rent subsidies and low interest mortgage programs for rural areas.Feb 01 19:33
DaemonFCEven though the Housing and Urban Development and Federal Housing Agencies do the same kind of stuff.Feb 01 19:34
DaemonFCThey all run their programs in rural areas.Feb 01 19:34
DaemonFCWhat would be the harm in getting rid of the USDA and FHA rent and mortgage programs and giving them to HUD?Feb 01 19:35
DaemonFCWould anyone notice?Feb 01 19:35
DaemonFCI'll bet it would save billions of dollars.Feb 01 19:35
DaemonFCThere are several federal law enforcement agencies with overlapping mandates and jurisdiction.Feb 01 19:36
DaemonFCWould consolidating them all into the FBI save money? Probably.Feb 01 19:36
DaemonFCThe USDA, FDA, and Department of Education all regulate the school lunch program.Feb 01 19:37
DaemonFCWould picking one agency to run the school lunch program hurt anyone?Feb 01 19:37
DaemonFCIf you find anything the government does, you'll find three or four agencies and lots of duplications.Feb 01 19:38
DaemonFCYou could probably consolidate all of the agencies and all of their programs, fire thousands of bureaucrats and federal agents, and get the same stuff done.Feb 01 19:39

DaemonFCUnchained Capitalism only knows two rules.Feb 01 20:32
DaemonFCDo anything that you can get away with to make more money, and let the buyer beware.Feb 01 20:32
DaemonFCThe system is unsustainable. The Republicans want that system, and most Democrats appear to want to give people just enough that they don't become angry and violent.Feb 01 20:32
DaemonFCMost Democrats want a system that curtails only the worst excesses of capitalism and saves it from itself. I don't think that's a good thing, but it's better than what the Republicans want to do.Feb 01 20:32
DaemonFCI don't like to consider myself a Democrat, because the mainstream party is too far to the right, but I do vote for them because it's less bad than the worst thing that could happen.Feb 01 20:32
DaemonFCRomney is a product of a system that rewards people for taking advantage of others and living a parasitic lifestyle. His father was a job creator and a producer. Romney is just a business criminal and a thug that wears a suit and steals from people using legal methods. Feb 01 20:32

DaemonFCAnd on that topic, I refuse to ever pay money for books with DRM, where the maker of the computer that reads them has a backdoor and a delete button with which to control what is on my device, and I can't "move them to a different shelf" (another type of computer).Feb 01 20:38
DaemonFCIf the publisher or Amazon threw a brick through the window of your living room and stole books from your bookshelf, that would be against the law.Feb 01 20:38
DaemonFCWhy are they allowed to do the same thing and call it "Kindle Books"?Feb 01 20:39
DaemonFCApple, Google, and Barnes & Noble do the same thing. I don't read books on my phone unless they have no DRM. Feb 01 20:39

DaemonFCComcast cold called me on my cell phone the other day offering to save me money.Feb 01 20:58
DaemonFCBy the time I got them to admit how much they were going to save me vs. my internet-only account, it was going to save me negative $120.Feb 01 20:58
DaemonFCIt included home phone service so that I could talk to other telemarketers. :) Feb 01 20:58
