r_schestowitzyay!Jun 28 23:47

roy__me: Jun 30 09:48
roy__Hi Lawrence,Jun 30 09:48
roy__I think there was a misunderstanding about what prompted this. A friend of mine published an article about businesses based on the UK which, due to privacy issues (GCHQ et al.) consider expansion abroad. Knowing that some are moving to Switzerland because of data protection laws and recalling that I was told about expansion of UKFast in Switzerland (not in those words, but something along those lines), I responded to my friend and said that Jun 30 09:48
roy__UKFast too seems to be going there. That's when the UKFast Twitter account weighed in and my friend then pointed out that warrants are an issue. I said that no warrants are needed where platforms with government back doors exist, as leaks serve to show that these are often being used to bypass need for warrants.Jun 30 09:48
roy__This was not a discussion about Linux but about privacy and how to guard it.Jun 30 09:48
roy__I will be happy to be an ally rather than an enemy (was I ever an enemy?). I don't have any negative feelings towards you and I congratulate you for all you have achieved.Jun 30 09:48
roy__I'll be happy to meet for a coffee and have a chat just to reassure you there are no hard feelings.Jun 30 09:49

roy__> As a proud grandpa I am pleased to report that Rachelle is absorbed in her summer internship at Florida International University (F.I.U.) in Miami. She loves her work, which is much beyond the comprehension of anyone in the family.Jun 30 17:56
roy__So she and I have this in common. Many in Daniel's family seem to have opted for greed over satisfaction with the job, which might also be true to others in the extended family (I don't know them as well). I generally regard many in the US to be greedy and money-loving more than their European counterparts (in the US it can be the only way to get respect from the media, family, and peers) and this can help explain the anti-depressants addictionJun 30 17:56
roy__ It's similar to Singapore in that respect, maybe Japan and Korea too...Jun 30 17:56
roy__> As her relative and someone who has full knowledge of what her work comprises, I think she would be very pleased to hear from you, and  of course, I would very much appreciate if you offer to be available should she need any advice in her work or in pursuing her career.Jun 30 17:56
roy__Yes, I chatted to her in twitter some time ago, she seems to be into Android development. Point her in my direction is she needed help. I'm not bad at this type of stuff.Jun 30 17:56
roy__> Thanks mate! haha!... I love Brit and Aussie expressions, especially those I hear spoken in movies and shows from the BBC. Come to think of it, not many people here actually use any Brit slang, it would sound too affected.Yet, I Jun 30 17:56
roy__> wonder if England has adopted any our corruption of the language, especially things introduced by teen-agers in this country. e.g....Jun 30 17:56
roy__Common folks have have not the accent you see on British TV or hear from British movie stars. We have dozens of accents here, depending and varying based on location and class. A lot varies, including the slang itself. Rianne is still adapting to it all..Jun 30 17:56
roy__> Hit the spot, cool, what's up, awesome!, chilling-out, hit the road, all-nighter, later alligator, for real?Jun 30 17:56
roy__Ah, that... Susanne and Leilani (and their friends) resort to all that. I think Rachelle does too, based on how she writes in Twitter. I first noticed that when I was 16 in MiamiJun 30 17:56

r_schestowitzMy first little steps with OpenBSD have not been long time ago - also with 5.7 - it feels a bit strange without procFS, but I think it’s a nice operating system. I’ve had a little problem with ncurses, what I couldn’t solve so I decided to install something else on that old ppc-machine.Jul 02 16:54

r_schestowitzJust joking, of course, but that’s how bad cable service was in the US for a long time. They would first try to walk the customer through a diagnosis script that started with “Open Internet Explorer”. Sooner or later, they might send someone out who would start with win32 tools on the customer’s computer, so you had to keep a sacrificial machine handy. Things are better than that now.Jul 02 16:55

roy__Hi Lawrence,Jun 30 08:48
roy__I think there was a misunderstanding about what prompted this. A friend of mine published an article about businesses based on the UK which, due to privacy issues (GCHQ et al.) consider expansion abroad. Knowing that some are moving to Switzerland because of data protection laws and recalling that I was told about expansion of UKFast in Switzerland (not in those words, but something along those lines), I responded to my friend and said that Jun 30 08:48
roy__UKFast too seems to be going there. That's when the UKFast Twitter account weighed in and my friend then pointed out that warrants are an issue. I said that no warrants are needed where platforms with government back doors exist, as leaks serve to show that these are often being used to bypass need for warrants.Jun 30 08:48
roy__This was not a discussion about Linux but about privacy and how to guard it.Jun 30 08:48
roy__I will be happy to be an ally rather than an enemy (was I ever an enemy?). I don't have any negative feelings towards you and I congratulate you for all you have achieved.Jun 30 08:48

roy__So she and I have this in common. Many in Daniel's family seem to have opted for greed over satisfaction with the job, which might also be true to others in the extended family (I don't know them as well). I generally regard many in the US to be greedy and money-loving more than their European counterparts (in the US it can be the only way to get respect from the media, family, and peers) and this can help explain the anti-depressants addictionJun 30 16:56
