schestowitzHere where I live there are many people with fair skin but I personally do not consider them white. For example, the one that coated my roof the wrong way is white with blue eyes but since race is not related to roof coating I did not mention that in a previous rant. The waiter that hands me over my breakfast in a cafeteria near my job is white as well, it might even have coloured eyes but since he has not drove me nuts I have not paidJul 26 19:06

schestowitzSo there are Japanese that have very fair skin and they see themselves as whites, but are the only ones. And is the same with Chinese, and Korean, and lots of other nationalities and races, like Argentinians.Jul 26 19:06
schestowitzTo me arguing who is of white race and who is not is like discussing who has nice feet and who has not, it might be good but is in general useless. It does not even guarantee someone the skills to coat a roof properly.Jul 26 19:06

schestowitzI am aware you have been trying to keep abreast of nasty things that Amazon is doing. What if I told you that Amazon AWS (their so-called 'cloud') was used to take down Techrights several times recently, by means of effective DDOS, and Amazon then refuse to tell me who was doing this and said that I need to serve them a subpoena (to find out who was attacking my servers using their own servers).

schestowitzsomething from that area...Jul 29 21:05
MinceRyeahJul 29 21:05
schestowitzstrange now to think it was once part of an empireJul 29 21:06
MinceRit used to be a major power, iircJul 29 21:06
MinceRthen it was part of the habsburgs' empire, then hitler's, then the russian'sJul 29 21:07

schestowitzleaving just less talented workers who make up for it with superstition, like in RomaniaJul 29 21:08
MinceRthe people don't care anymoreJul 29 21:11
MinceRthey gave orban 2/3 of the seats in 2010, knowing what's going to happenJul 29 21:11
MinceRand there's little to no protest ever sinceJul 29 21:11
MinceRby far the greatest protest was about internet taxJul 29 21:12
MinceRalmost nobody cares that there's no rule of law, no freedom of speech, the election system distorts brutally (and favors fidesz/kdnp very strongly)Jul 29 21:12
MinceRthe third nazi party, jobbik is growing in supportJul 29 21:12
schestowitzmaybe he hides behing clergyJul 29 21:13
schestowitzlike lee kuanJul 29 21:13

MinceRwe have clearly fundamentalist laws, like the ban on shops being open on sundayJul 29 21:15
schestowitzwowJul 29 21:15
MinceRand of course the shop franchise closest to fidesz (cba) tends to be exempt to these measuresJul 29 21:15

schestowitzthey get fined here too... must pay staff more :-)Jul 29 21:15
MinceRwe had 2 cba shops register themselves as "markets" so they could stay open on sundayJul 29 21:15
MinceReven though they're bigger than the limitJul 29 21:15
schestowitzBut they're not really fines, just measures to discourage overworking the peopleJul 29 21:15
MinceRthis is not the way to discourage overworking peopleJul 29 21:16
schestowitzGod's dayJul 29 21:16
MinceRyou can mandate extra pay on weekends and a limit on how much you can have any one person workJul 29 21:16
MinceRencourage shifts insteadJul 29 21:16
MinceRbanning shops being open on sunday is clearly religiously motivatedJul 29 21:16
schestowitzyeahJul 29 21:16
schestowitzappeases the massesJul 29 21:16
MinceRthey are distorting the market in other ways tooJul 29 21:16

schestowitzDear Richard,Jul 29 11:21
schestowitzI am aware you have been trying to keep abreast of nasty things that Amazon is doing. What if I told you that Amazon AWS (their so-called 'cloud') was used to take down Techrights several times recently, by means of effective DDOS, and Amazon then refuse to tell me who was doing this and said that I need to serve them a subpoena (to find out who was attacking my servers using their own servers). I wrote about this recently and in case youJul 29 11:21
schestowitzmissed it, I can provide you with some details.Jul 29 11:21

oiaohmschestowitz:  Its called the safe harbor principleJul 29 11:36
schestowitzOK, well, if I am a safe harbour to drug dealing, then too I could be liableJul 29 11:37
oiaohmYou can not punish a dock owning company for importing drugs.   And the dock is allowed to protect the identity unless court order is issued.Jul 29 11:37
oiaohmYou can only push the dock owning company if they are intentionally taking part.Jul 29 11:38
oiaohmProblem is when this idea is applied to something like amazon there are problems.Jul 29 11:38

schestowitzso it's easy to attack small entitiesJul 29 11:39
oiaohmI know all these bad sides.Jul 29 11:39
schestowitzif paypal is attacked, immediately (even political) action is takenJul 29 11:39
schestowitzbut that's how "the system" worksJul 29 11:39
oiaohmNo paypal has been attacked from amazon hosting before.Jul 29 11:40
oiaohmAnd paypal could not do much about it either.Jul 29 11:40
oiaohmTook paypal 30 odd days to get the legal paperwork in place to stop it.Jul 29 11:40
oiaohmeven then it was limited effectivenessJul 29 11:41
oiaohmwe need true on-line police officers who in some of these cases can act instantly.Jul 29 11:41
oiaohmBasically the dock equal to custom officers.Jul 29 11:41
oiaohmschestowitz: lets say to play the devil.   Lets just say for some reason you a hell popular with people running http proxies on amazon.   So its not a dos attack and Amazon releases that private information they are legally screwed.Jul 29 11:43
oiaohmEven if 1 of those you requested is that amazon is legally screwed.Jul 29 11:44
oiaohmSame with amazon cutting off service.Jul 29 11:44
oiaohmBeing a harbour/dock causes some major nightmares as a commercial entity.    Custom offercers at a dock and detain you for a while without you being able to legally do anything.Jul 29 11:45
oiaohmschestowitz: I know none of this helps you.Jul 29 11:45
oiaohmschestowitz: the worst part I have about the safe harbour rules is the fact amazon can be profiting from the target and the criminal.  http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/03/20/greatfire_chinese_activists_under_ddos/Jul 29 11:47

oiaohmIt was not just paypal.Jul 29 11:49
oiaohmThe nightmare was the guys doing that uses amazon to attack amazon.Jul 29 11:49
