| schestowitz | Here's the question I have in my mind; Does getting a local webhost count as self-hosting? Because that's what I currently have. Sure, I could export it all and put it at home on dynamic IP and there are services like No-IP out there, which work until Microsoft sabotages them. Also, ISPs are not terribly happy with hosting from home; not only do they limit upload speeds but some of them outright ban the practice. | Aug 14 15:20 |

| schestowitz | "What is the total output of the transmitter on a cell phone vs. wifi?" | Aug 16 08:29 |
| schestowitz | " | Aug 16 08:31 |
| schestowitz | The question is also: How much transmission power is actually required? Cell base stations can use more sensitive antennas (larger in size, more in number) and better amplifiers (more expensive) than the usual 50$ home wifi router can employ for its wireless equipment. So the mobile phone doesn’t need to transmit at the same power to get to the base as a laptop needs to be seen by its cheap wifi router. | Aug 16 08:31 |
| schestowitz | Next question is about transfers running while the phone is in a pocket with possibly less good of a signal and higher transmission energy. What then? | Aug 16 08:31 |
| schestowitz | Intuition might say mobile phones introduce a higher risk of cancer. But intuition can be wrong. Very wrong. | Aug 16 08:31 |
| schestowitz | While at it: What about cordless phones at home? DECT is known to be worse about transmission energy than GSM. Microwave ovens? Gaming consoles? Wireless keyboards, mice, gaming controllers? The softeners in those oh-so-great-cheap plastic bottles?

| schestowitz | For instance, here they have a link “Intel assures monopoly through patents”. The articles spends many words about ho bad and monopolistic Intel is. But in practice the article is about them buying some patents. Every hardware company needs to have its own cache of patents in order to fight other hardware vendors. Thus the fact that they bought some patents is meaningless. | Aug 18 20:04 |

| schestowitz | @tzafrir is right, though. He’s right. I actually came to appreciate the openness of Intel PCs. I can, in fact, install any OS on an Intel PC. Well, Microsoft is bribing computer part manufacturers to make it difficult to install anything else than Windows, but thanks to the openness of Intel, we can still manage to install any OS. The PCs made by Intel are powerful enough to just execute instructions without questioning their origin or | Aug 18 20:04 |
| schestowitz | source. In fact, they do a little bit more than just not discriminate; they even welcome migrant code from other computers over the network. That allows for world-leading-class-type innovation! | Aug 18 20:04 |
| schestowitz | Intel PCs not only do not discriminate, it also encourages other manufacturers to put in backdoors in their hardware. For example manufacturers are allowed to bring in their own backdoors in form of UEFI. So Intel PCs are ethical, in that it does not try to create a monopoly. | Aug 18 20:04 |

| schestowitz | I have actually used at least two machines with a 74181 ALU. The PDP-11, back in the day, used the 74181. Of course, it also had register files, address generators, and an instruction set. We had a circuit diagram for the processor board and you could get replacement parts. In the days of SSI and MSI, there was no part of the processor that could not be understood and/or replaced. | Aug 18 20:07 |
| schestowitz | The other thing was a DeAnza image processing machine, I can’t recall the model number. You could add, or XOR, images, or do any of 14 other operations (most of which were not very useful), and it used the 74181 bit slice ALU. One of the parameters to an image operation was the 4-bit function code for the ALU. | Aug 18 20:07 |
| schestowitz | Now, you not only can’t get a circuit diagram (which would be umm, large), you can’t get more than a vague suggestion of the components inside your SoC.

| schestowitz | I will hesitantly posit that the point at which we should fall on our own swords is much like pornography - i can't define it, but I know it when I see it. | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | This, most certainly, is not the fight on which to sacrifice Mozilla. The industry was going to implement it regardless of Mozilla's action, and taking a stand in this issue would not have changed anything other than diminishing Mozilla's influence. | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | If we are going to encourage and deride people to fall in their own swords, I'd like to think we have some reasoning behind it, rather than pure idealism. Ideally, Mozilla would have been able to not implement the DRM, but this isn't an ideal world. There are still many battles we need to fight, and to sacrifice Mozilla for a single ideal, when we need them for the long term fight, is shortsighted. | Aug 18 20:55 |

| schestowitz | Fair enough. I don't see a way we could debate this, our approaches are too different. For me, it is simply not possible to trust a negotiator when they cannot clearly state what is the one line they aren't willing to cross. | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | I'm afraid that every year from now on we will have another small, inevitable hill that isn't worth for Mozilla to die on, until there's nothing left to fight for. And then we will cycle through the 1998-2004 events again. | Aug 18 20:55 |

| schestowitz | My line is admittedly nebulous, but for good reason, I believe - because there are a number of variables here. | Aug 18 20:56 |
| schestowitz | Honestly, if the destruction of Mozilla as an entity would have had an effect on the uptake of web DRM, I would be much more conflicted on the matter. It's very easy to point to an event like this, one where you could trade an ally for no gain, and say "no way". It's much harder, for me, to point to a situation where there is more parity between give and take and say this is the course of action. | Aug 18 20:56 |
| schestowitz | My line is fairly simple, but it's not any particular issue: does the sum of what we lose outweigh the sum of what we gain? I believe that, had Mozilla done this, they would have thrown away their position for literally no gain. | Aug 18 20:56 |

| schestowitz | Apple (iTunes) had to become much much bigger (market power wise. Customer base wise) than the record labels before they could demand no DRM. Neither Netflix nor Mozilla are bigger than HBO or Disney to be able to make those kinds of demands. Netflix is still struggling just to keep its prices down.

| schestowitz | " | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | It's not a battle that can be won on a single level. Defaults shape the world, and Mozilla has a responsibility when they make DRM available so easily to the extend that non-savvy users don't even notice it is happening, and aren't made aware of the risks. It is the same reason we do not endorse distributions that silently install proprietary software, without even as much as a warning. | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | It is dishonest to claim that the users approve of DRM, when they don't know it's there. And even those who know about DRM and they still use it, they almost never prefer DRM'ed versions over DRM-free versions - DRM is not a selling point. | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | Yes, I agree. There should also be boycott of DRM users, and support for DRM-free works. But that's not enough. There should be awareness, there should be protests, there should be organisations with principles throwing their aggregated power in defense of the individual users who are pressured to conform, because they cannot boycott everything that is unethical (voting with your money implies that your vote is proportional to the amount | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | of money you have after all; good luck boycotting Walmart for example, if every other store outprices you). | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | Some comprises must be made in order to even compete in the market place. | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | That's the problem with the rigid belief that market forces will sort out everything. Sometimes principles don't make financial sense. It makes way more market sense to manipulate search results than to lose the Mainland Chinese market. It makes more market sense to join PRISM than to be driven out of the US market. It makes more market sense to ship DRM than to stick with the (idealistic, sure) community that you previously built. God | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | knows I wasn't born a Firefox user. I switched to Firefox because it had a manifesto for openness. For every user who ditched Firefox those last two years because they value Netflix more, there's a non-zero fraction of a user who stayed with Firefox because they trusted Mozilla's manifesto. It's truly sad to see Mozilla chasing after the bigger number, instead of valuing those who stick with them because of shared principles. | Aug 18 20:57 |

| schestowitz | "I think like another commenter pointed out that martyring Mozilla just isn't going to make things better. At least consider that moving away from Flash and Silverlight to HTML5 is a win in itself. It's a step forward. All open source everything with no DRM is the most ideal sure, but an open browser using an open standard with DRM is still better than closed browsers with Flash and Silverlight and still DRM. We can't win every battle all | Aug 18 20:57 |

| schestowitz | As I wrote in another comment, there's two positions here that will not be reconciled if we continue this back and forth. If anything, I am afraid it will easily devolve into a flame war if a troll shows up (so far I respect everyone who participated here, despite disagreement). | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | Our philosophies on how to struggle do differ. I believe that more concessions are gained when we demand everything and we are willing to stand our ground. Mozilla's way nowadays is different, although it wasn't always like that. Instead of DRM per-se, as a movement we should discuss strategy. | Aug 18 20:57 |

| schestowitz | Normalising DRM by making it required for HTML5 compliant browsers emboldens other publishers who also want DRM to become legally required for their content. See the escalating war between users and websites who use Malware Delivery Networks (3rd-party/tracking web ads). When people are okay with their browser using the force of law (DMCA) for video content, what will stop them from demanding that whole websites will require a DRM module | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | to be rendered, so that you cannot modify their appearance client-side to block malware ads in say HTML 5.5? | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | Getting rid of DRM is not a personal issue. Anyone could avoid watching Netflix and the like. I do it successfully since forever. But a) its popularity, b) its sanctioning from supposedly good people like W3C and Mozilla, and c) it's legal backing by governments is shaping the society. Do you want to leave in a society where secret code runs in privileged modes and no one even complains about it? | Aug 18 20:58 |

If it becomes commonplace everywhere and the majority people are okay with it or simply don't care then the society is obviously okay with it. That's democracy for you. | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | DRM sucks, but most people are idiots. All that will happen if DRM gets removed from Firefox is that it will become completely irrelevant soon, developers might jump off and it won't be able to keep up with emerging web standards, OS changes or whatever requires maintenance (also say goodbye to a ton of extensions). Mozilla realized this long ago. See the comment by /u/DanielFore. | Aug 18 20:58 |

| schestowitz | For someone who believes in democracy, you sure don't hold the demos in high esteem. How do you reconcile those two positions? | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | For one, I don't think that people are stupid. We see people try and reclaim control of their computing constantly, but they are faced with structural constraints and very few of them are ready to go "off-the-grid" so to speak. And that's to be expected, when a piece of code has the threat of government violence behind it (DMCA), when at worst, it should have been a dispute between a customer and a provider. | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | If people don't want DRM they will not use it. | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | That is a fallacy. The market is never "free", the market is always rigged by those who make the rules, and in this case, that's the publishers. They legislated their way into monopoly, stopping anyone else from providing competing at providing the same service. Their monopoly is literally becoming a web standard, mandated from above (W3C). You don't get to pass that as a "free market decision" or "democracy", because we obviously never | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | got to debate the merits and demerits of DRM, nor to vote on whether it should be required for standard-compliant browsers. The decision was taken under duress: "we have almost all the content you want to watch, and we are not giving you access unless you surrender control of your browser to us - and we are not negotiating the technical details of how we control your browser either". | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | I don't consider that democracy. And yes, Mozilla's compromise is shameful and ignores the reality of the struggle. We got rid of DRM once before goddamit. When MP3 sales became a thing, DRM was defeated within years. We had the advantage and we let it slide away. | Aug 18 20:58 |

By demanding only a small piece of their end goal each time, they attract less attention, and they get to downplay the opposition easily. By the time they decide to ask for DRM in text, we would have already accepted DRM in music (again), in video, in text on mobile devices (ebooks), in software, in bootloaders, on coffee machines, on car engines, in "smart" home devices and | Aug 18 20:59 |

| schestowitz | Here's the question I have in my mind; Does getting a local webhost count as self-hosting? Because that's what I currently have. Sure, I could export it all and put it at home on dynamic IP and there are services like No-IP out there, which work until Microsoft sabotages them. Also, ISPs are not terribly happy with hosting from home; not only do they limit upload speeds but some of them outright ban the practice. | Aug 14 15:20 |

| schestowitz | I have tried numerous times to work with the Administration to stop the United States from assisting Saudi Arabia in their indiscriminate killing of civilians in Yemen. But when Saudi Arabia continues to kill civilians, and in this case children, enough is enough. Having served on active duty, one of my responsibilities was to teach the Law of War.

| schestowitz | Arabia look like war crimes to me. In this case, children as young as 8 were killed by Saudi Arabian air strikes.

| schestowitz | @tzafrir is right, though. He’s right. I actually came to appreciate the openness of Intel PCs. I can, in fact, install any OS on an Intel PC. Well, Microsoft is bribing computer part manufacturers to make it difficult to install anything else than Windows, but thanks to the openness of Intel, we can still manage to install any OS. The PCs made by Intel are powerful enough to just execute instructions without questioning their origin or | Aug 18 20:04 |
| schestowitz | source. In fact, they do a little bit more than just not discriminate; they even welcome migrant code from other computers over the network. That allows for world-leading-class-type innovation! | Aug 18 20:04 |
| schestowitz | Intel PCs not only do not discriminate, it also encourages other manufacturers to put in backdoors in their hardware. For example manufacturers are allowed to bring in their own backdoors in form of UEFI. So Intel PCs are ethical, in that it does not try to create a monopoly. | Aug 18 20:04 |
| schestowitz | I love my Intel PC. Thanks to you, tzafrir, my eyes have opened to what was right in front of me but I couldn’t see! We tend to take so many things for granted, it’s such a goddamn shame. I will try and better myself in this regard, and with everything I do and have, ask myself: “Am I, by any chance, not taking this for granted? I probably should appreciate it more!”. | Aug 18 20:04 |

| schestowitz | I have actually used at least two machines with a 74181 ALU. The PDP-11, back in the day, used the 74181. Of course, it also had register files, address generators, and an instruction set. We had a circuit diagram for the processor board and you could get replacement parts. In the days of SSI and MSI, there was no part of the processor that could not be understood and/or replaced. | Aug 18 20:07 |
| schestowitz | The other thing was a DeAnza image processing machine, I can’t recall the model number. You could add, or XOR, images, or do any of 14 other operations (most of which were not very useful), and it used the 74181 bit slice ALU. One of the parameters to an image operation was the 4-bit function code for the ALU. | Aug 18 20:07 |
| schestowitz | Now, you not only can’t get a circuit diagram (which would be umm, large), you can’t get more than a vague suggestion of the components inside your SoC.

| schestowitz | When will it be worth it then? What will it be the single development that will make Mozilla say this is a step too far? | Aug 18 20:54 |

| schestowitz | I will hesitantly posit that the point at which we should fall on our own swords is much like pornography - i can't define it, but I know it when I see it. | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | This, most certainly, is not the fight on which to sacrifice Mozilla. The industry was going to implement it regardless of Mozilla's action, and taking a stand in this issue would not have changed anything other than diminishing Mozilla's influence. | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | If we are going to encourage and deride people to fall in their own swords, I'd like to think we have some reasoning behind it, rather than pure idealism. Ideally, Mozilla would have been able to not implement the DRM, but this isn't an ideal world. There are still many battles we need to fight, and to sacrifice Mozilla for a single ideal, when we need them for the long term fight, is shortsighted. | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | " | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | " | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | Fair enough. I don't see a way we could debate this, our approaches are too different. For me, it is simply not possible to trust a negotiator when they cannot clearly state what is the one line they aren't willing to cross. | Aug 18 20:55 |
| schestowitz | I'm afraid that every year from now on we will have another small, inevitable hill that isn't worth for Mozilla to die on, until there's nothing left to fight for. And then we will cycle through the 1998-2004 events again. | Aug 18 20:55 |

| schestowitz | My line is admittedly nebulous, but for good reason, I believe - because there are a number of variables here. | Aug 18 20:56 |
| schestowitz | Honestly, if the destruction of Mozilla as an entity would have had an effect on the uptake of web DRM, I would be much more conflicted on the matter. It's very easy to point to an event like this, one where you could trade an ally for no gain, and say "no way". It's much harder, for me, to point to a situation where there is more parity between give and take and say this is the course of action. | Aug 18 20:56 |
| schestowitz | My line is fairly simple, but it's not any particular issue: does the sum of what we lose outweigh the sum of what we gain? I believe that, had Mozilla done this, they would have thrown away their position for literally no gain. | Aug 18 20:56 |

| schestowitz | The problem is twice removed from Mozilla. If you really want to attack this problem, become a TV show producer and don't demand DRM when you negotiate with content distributors or refuse to consume media produced by companies that demand DRM. | Aug 18 20:56 |
| schestowitz | Apple (iTunes) had to become much much bigger (market power wise. Customer base wise) than the record labels before they could demand no DRM. Neither Netflix nor Mozilla are bigger than HBO or Disney to be able to make those kinds of demands. Netflix is still struggling just to keep its prices down. Rigid idealism will just kill the disrupters that we should be championing. Some comprises must be made in order to even compete in the | Aug 18 20:56 |

| schestowitz | " | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | It's not a battle that can be won on a single level. Defaults shape the world, and Mozilla has a responsibility when they make DRM available so easily to the extend that non-savvy users don't even notice it is happening, and aren't made aware of the risks. It is the same reason we do not endorse distributions that silently install proprietary software, without even as much as a warning. | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | It is dishonest to claim that the users approve of DRM, when they don't know it's there. And even those who know about DRM and they still use it, they almost never prefer DRM'ed versions over DRM-free versions - DRM is not a selling point. | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | Yes, I agree. There should also be boycott of DRM users, and support for DRM-free works. But that's not enough. There should be awareness, there should be protests, there should be organisations with principles throwing their aggregated power in defense of the individual users who are pressured to conform, because they cannot boycott everything that is unethical (voting with your money implies that your vote is proportional to the amount | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | of money you have after all; good luck boycotting Walmart for example, if every other store outprices you). | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | Some comprises must be made in order to even compete in the market place. | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | That's the problem with the rigid belief that market forces will sort out everything. Sometimes principles don't make financial sense. It makes way more market sense to manipulate search results than to lose the Mainland Chinese market. It makes more market sense to join PRISM than to be driven out of the US market. It makes more market sense to ship DRM than to stick with the (idealistic, sure) community that you previously built. God | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | knows I wasn't born a Firefox user. I switched to Firefox because it had a manifesto for openness. For every user who ditched Firefox those last two years because they value Netflix more, there's a non-zero fraction of a user who stayed with Firefox because they trusted Mozilla's manifesto. It's truly sad to see Mozilla chasing after the bigger number, instead of valuing those who stick with them because of shared principles. | Aug 18 20:57 |

| schestowitz | "I think like another commenter pointed out that martyring Mozilla just isn't going to make things better. At least consider that moving away from Flash and Silverlight to HTML5 is a win in itself. It's a step forward. All open source everything with no DRM is the most ideal sure, but an open browser using an open standard with DRM is still better than closed browsers with Flash and Silverlight and still DRM. We can't win every battle all | Aug 18 20:57 |

| schestowitz | As I wrote in another comment, there's two positions here that will not be reconciled if we continue this back and forth. If anything, I am afraid it will easily devolve into a flame war if a troll shows up (so far I respect everyone who participated here, despite disagreement). | Aug 18 20:57 |
| schestowitz | Our philosophies on how to struggle do differ. I believe that more concessions are gained when we demand everything and we are willing to stand our ground. Mozilla's way nowadays is different, although it wasn't always like that. Instead of DRM per-se, as a movement we should discuss strategy. | Aug 18 20:57 |

| schestowitz | I don't give a rat's ass about Netflix. I will not use it. I do not want malware in the browser that dictates how I am allowed to consume content after someone sends it to me. Somebody, please fork Firefox now. I know that Pailmoon is a thing, but it is Windows only AFAIK. | Aug 18 20:58 |

| schestowitz | Normalising DRM by making it required for HTML5 compliant browsers emboldens other publishers who also want DRM to become legally required for their content. See the escalating war between users and websites who use Malware Delivery Networks (3rd-party/tracking web ads). When people are okay with their browser using the force of law (DMCA) for video content, what will stop them from demanding that whole websites will require a DRM module | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | to be rendered, so that you cannot modify their appearance client-side to block malware ads in say HTML 5.5? | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | Getting rid of DRM is not a personal issue. Anyone could avoid watching Netflix and the like. I do it successfully since forever. But a) its popularity, b) its sanctioning from supposedly good people like W3C and Mozilla, and c) it's legal backing by governments is shaping the society. Do you want to leave in a society where secret code runs in privileged modes and no one even complains about it? | Aug 18 20:58 |

If it becomes commonplace everywhere and the majority people are okay with it or simply don't care then the society is obviously okay with it. That's democracy for you. | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | DRM sucks, but most people are idiots. All that will happen if DRM gets removed from Firefox is that it will become completely irrelevant soon, developers might jump off and it won't be able to keep up with emerging web standards, OS changes or whatever requires maintenance (also say goodbye to a ton of extensions). Mozilla realized this long ago. See the comment by /u/DanielFore. | Aug 18 20:58 |

| schestowitz | For someone who believes in democracy, you sure don't hold the demos in high esteem. How do you reconcile those two positions? | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | For one, I don't think that people are stupid. We see people try and reclaim control of their computing constantly, but they are faced with structural constraints and very few of them are ready to go "off-the-grid" so to speak. And that's to be expected, when a piece of code has the threat of government violence behind it (DMCA), when at worst, it should have been a dispute between a customer and a provider. | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | If people don't want DRM they will not use it. | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | That is a fallacy. The market is never "free", the market is always rigged by those who make the rules, and in this case, that's the publishers. They legislated their way into monopoly, stopping anyone else from providing competing at providing the same service. Their monopoly is literally becoming a web standard, mandated from above (W3C). You don't get to pass that as a "free market decision" or "democracy", because we obviously never | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | got to debate the merits and demerits of DRM, nor to vote on whether it should be required for standard-compliant browsers. The decision was taken under duress: "we have almost all the content you want to watch, and we are not giving you access unless you surrender control of your browser to us - and we are not negotiating the technical details of how we control your browser either". | Aug 18 20:58 |
| schestowitz | I don't consider that democracy. And yes, Mozilla's compromise is shameful and ignores the reality of the struggle. We got rid of DRM once before goddamit. When MP3 sales became a thing, DRM was defeated within years. We had the advantage and we let it slide away. | Aug 18 20:58 |

By demanding only a small piece of their end goal each time, they attract less attention, and they get to downplay the opposition easily. By the time they decide to ask for DRM in text, we would have already accepted DRM in music (again), in video, in text on mobile devices (ebooks), in software, in bootloaders, on coffee machines, on car engines, in "smart" home devices and | Aug 18 20:59 |

| schestowitz | Bill Gate’s war on “independent” publications continues to expand. Facebook’s relevance engine is the ultimate expression of control of the web. Everyone on the web can express themselves independently, but they are convinced they will only be heard if they crowd into the FB gas chambers where everyone else is. FB then gets to decide who will be heard. | Aug 20 20:57 |

I imagine Microsoft playing ugly games where they hide things from Google, then complain about people never seeing search results. Google will give you G+ results but not FB, for example, because Google can’t read FB. Microsoft can then complain that Google favors G+. The same thing is true for most of of Microsoft’s “cloud”." | Aug 20 20:58 |
