msb_MinceR: "<MinceR> and religions only tell us lies".  You really should do some research before spouting such huge generalizations (Karl Marx didn't invent capitalism, either).   What I wrote about were "Goddess religions -- Earth-centered religions -- that told us how to take care of our world".  These gave people instructions for planting, weeding, harvesting, raising animals, etc., told as _stories_ by and about beings.  This format Oct 11 16:37
msb_made the information much more interesting and memorable to people than a bare list of instructions, because it appealed to their associative/metaphorical minds, not just their linear/literal minds.  Read up on Wicca.Oct 11 16:37

MinceRand even if you get the procedure right by rote, embedding it in religion makes it static and impossible to improveOct 11 17:26
MinceRthus you get rules that forbid eating pork, shellfish, etc.Oct 11 17:26
msb_MinceR: No, you are confusing JCI religion with Wicca/Witchcraft/Goddess religion, which you probably have never researched.  Goddess religions are joyful and flexible.  And BTW, if you put some milk and cookies under your bed for Putin, who lives there, he'll be happy and will stop plotting against you.Oct 11 17:32
MinceRno, i'm talking about the fundamental principles of religionOct 11 17:34
MinceRthe idea of possessing a "Truth" that is inaccessible to reason, unprovable and delivered via revelationOct 11 17:34
MinceRtypically marking the ones possessing it as the Chosen People and everyone else as evil and/or expendableOct 11 17:34
MinceRand since it's inaccessible to reason and unprovable, it's also typically staticOct 11 17:35
MinceRand the only thing that will stop putin plotting against me is his deathOct 11 17:35

cubexyzwe need to guard ourselves against the proprietary firmware companiesOct 11 21:21
msb_cubexyz: You seem to be using a "contamination" paradigm here, i.e., because AMI uses MS tools, their product is "under Microsoft's thumb" and therefore as evil as Microshit.Oct 11 21:25

schestowitzNiceOct 11 21:26
cubexyzI'm just pointing out that AMI is heavily dependent on MicrosoftOct 11 21:26
cubexyzand of course it makes it harder to do basic stuff with AMI BIOS with a Linux computerOct 11 21:27
cubexyzlike flashing your biosOct 11 21:27
cubexyzHence AMI is bad, and better alternatives existOct 11 21:27
msb_I would like to present an alternative.  When I first bought a mobo, and maybe before when I looked into the BOct 11 21:29
msb_BIOS of my first PC.  The BIOS mfr that I remember is AMI.  They may have been the first and principal bios mfr.Oct 11 21:30
cubexyzGary Kildall invented the first BIOSOct 11 21:30
msb_They started using MS tools because those were what was available for PCs.  I did too.Oct 11 21:30
cubexyzoriginally Intel wrote their own toolsOct 11 21:31
cubexyzthen shortly after that they started using MASMOct 11 21:32
msb_But AMI was the popular BIOS mfr, not Kildall.Oct 11 21:32
cubexyzthere was a history of CP/M computers before then IBM PC existedOct 11 21:34
msb_You say updating the bios requires a windows program.  It's not true, at least with the asus 990fx mobo.  A bios image can be loaded from a usb stick using only the bios, no OS at all.Oct 11 21:34
msb_The point is, the fact that AMI uses MS tools does not mean that their BIOS is "bad".  Oct 11 21:35
cubexyzI fail to see how it could be any worseOct 11 21:36
msb_The 990FX mobo uses an ami bios, but it can be updated without using windows.Oct 11 21:36
cubexyzthat's about as bad as can beOct 11 21:36
MinceRi think we'll find out in a decade or a few decades how bad it can beOct 11 21:36
MinceRapparently everyone who has power wants thatOct 11 21:37
cubexyzthe original IBM PC BIOS was built with Intel ASM86 Oct 11 21:37
msb_Your use of "bad" and "worse" are contentless judgement terms.  You're afraid of contamination.  You have to specify precisely _what_ is bad and _why_ it is bad.Oct 11 21:37
cubexyzI did specifiy _exactly_ what was badOct 11 21:38
msb_What?  Everything from AMI?Oct 11 21:38
cubexyzproprietary closed source BIOS which can't be reviewed or checked in any way other than reverse engineeringOct 11 21:38
cubexyzif it wasn't for the leaks, I would have no clue at all about what AMI does Oct 11 21:39
msb_What I suspect you're going to come up with is a slow expensive mobo/cpu combination, that will be of no use to people who want to play games or watch videos.  But you won't care because _you_ don't play games or watch videos.Oct 11 21:40
cubexyzmsb_ you are a real goofOct 11 21:40
cubexyzI worked for LGPOct 11 21:40
cubexyzdo you know what that means?Oct 11 21:41
msb_No, I'm telling the truth.Oct 11 21:41
msb_NoOct 11 21:41
cubexyzit means I worked for a video game publisherOct 11 21:41
cubexyzLinux Game PublishingOct 11 21:41
msb_So what?  If your solution is no good for playing games or watching compressed videos, it will not be accepted by the majority of people.  If you don't care about that, then you should admit it.Oct 11 21:42
msb_Linux can already circumvent UEFI, and the 990FX mobo can even turn it off entirely.Oct 11 21:43
MinceRcan it circumvent Restricted Boot that presents no option for disabling and doesn't let you to change the keys?Oct 11 21:44
msb_So the problem that remains is AMT/DASH, and if that can be solved with a $50 to $100 SBC router with open-source code, then _that_ solution _will_ work for most people.Oct 11 21:45
msb_MinceR: There is some kind of shim loader that is signed with MS keys that enables all Linuxes to boot.Oct 11 21:46
MinceRuntil m$ makes up a malware scare and revokes those keys.Oct 11 21:46
MinceRs/those keys/the certificate that loader is signed with/Oct 11 21:47
cubexyzright, let's become more dependent on Microsoft :-POct 11 21:47
cubexyzwhat a stupid ideaOct 11 21:47
MinceRhaving m$ hold the only keys to one's "computer" is unacceptableOct 11 21:47
cubexyzit's very simple...Oct 11 21:47
msb_Can those keys be revoked?  That would require the bios to call home to MS before accepting the keys.]Oct 11 21:47
cubexyzif you don't have the source code you don't have control, simple as thatOct 11 21:47
MinceRafaik it's designed so it can be revokedOct 11 21:47
msb_MinceR: please give a reference.Oct 11 21:48
MinceRbut it may require booting some OS that's obedient to m$ to actually do the call homeOct 11 21:48
MinceRanother way would be exploiting a security hole in winblows to chain-load your own bootloaderOct 11 21:48
MinceRbut i don't want to have to jailbreak my computerOct 11 21:48
msb_In that case, if the shim loader loads Linux, the MS key cannot be revoked.Oct 11 21:48
MinceRuntil someone boots winblows on that system onceOct 11 21:49
MinceRor until systemd does the call home, etc.Oct 11 21:49

cubexyzlike I said before, I'm seeing more customers use chromebooks, so there is some will to break away from the "mother-ship" of MicrosoftOct 11 21:57

MinceRas most of them will never use developer modeOct 11 21:57
cubexyzMincer, if you have a superior suggestion, I'm all ears :)Oct 11 21:58
MinceRbut at least they could if they wanted toOct 11 21:58
MinceRi don't have any suggestion that can be practically implemented right nowOct 11 21:58
cubexyzI can tell you I've talked to some Google and Coreboot peopleOct 11 21:58
cubexyzand they are much friendlier than Microsoft people by farOct 11 21:59
<--amarsh04 has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Oct 11 21:59
cubexyzall AMI has to do to change my mind about them is simple: give me commented source code to one motherboardOct 11 21:59
cubexyzthat's it... if they do that, I'll give them a thumbs upOct 11 22:00
cubexyzpeople do have a vague idea that the computer world is getting more closedOct 11 22:01
cubexyzlook at PVRs, once they did not encrypt the video, now they almost always doOct 11 22:01
cubexyzMinceR, hopefully Novena will catch on and become cheaperOct 11 22:02
MinceRhopefully they're willing to manufacture the Senoko boards againOct 11 22:03
MinceRwithout those, it isn't even a laptopOct 11 22:03
MinceRat any rate, it's probably a PITA to acquire at allOct 11 22:04
MinceRwell, at least some chromebooks are available for sale in hungary nowOct 11 22:04
MinceRafaict a few months ago there were noneOct 11 22:04
msb_cubexyz: It's ridiculous to expect AMI to give you "commented source code to one motherboard".  They would be killing their entire business -- their source of income.Oct 11 22:06
cubexyzmsb_, I told them any motherboard, no matter how oldOct 11 22:06
cubexyzwell, newer than IBM PC at leastOct 11 22:07
msb_What would a very old one accomplish?Oct 11 22:07
cubexyzI have commented AMI BIOS source code anywaysOct 11 22:07
msb_Please share it.Oct 11 22:07
msb_Does it deal with UEFI/secure-boot or AMT/DASH?Oct 11 22:08
MinceRwell, redcrap has apparently developed a method to avoid leaking commented source codeOct 11 22:08
cubexyzI have two: 1999 era, and 2011 era BIOSOct 11 22:08
MinceRthey don't write comments in the first placeOct 11 22:08
cubexyzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/ami-firmware.torrentOct 11 22:09
cubexyzthat's the newer oneOct 11 22:09
msb_So far, what I've seen about MS revoking their keys involves MS putting out a BIOS update.  Oct 11 22:09
MinceRi don't think that's a full-blown BIOS updateOct 11 22:10
MinceRbut what if it is?Oct 11 22:10
MinceRthey're still going to install it automatically if you let their malware boot onceOct 11 22:10
cubexyzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/mystery-code-do-not-look.zipOct 11 22:10
cubexyzok, that disappears in a hour :)Oct 11 22:10
cubexyzyou have your chance, make your time :)Oct 11 22:10
MinceRmystery meat!Oct 11 22:11
MinceRyou have no chance to survive make your time.Oct 11 22:11
msb_To avoid that, one can refuse any BIOS update.  But a safer approach is to save your working BIOS, and reflash with that if your bios gets updated against your wishes.Oct 11 22:11
MinceRif they allow you to reflashOct 11 22:11
cubexyzsome notes:Oct 11 22:12
cubexyzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/bios.txtOct 11 22:12
cubexyzthe weird thing is AMI does have a SVN for BIOS source codeOct 11 22:14

cubexyzthe problem with using Microsoft's key is what if you compile your kernel and now they need you to have a signed kernel?Oct 11 22:19
cubexyzit's a problemOct 11 22:19
MinceRprobably one of the first steps will involve demanding you to use redcrap's signed kernel blobOct 11 22:21
MinceRand it will get darker from thereOct 11 22:21
cubexyzso forced systemd potentiallyOct 11 22:21
MinceRindeedOct 11 22:21
MinceRi suspect that kernel will be garrettux anywayOct 11 22:22
MinceRwith kdbusOct 11 22:22
cubexyzthe 1999 BIOS is pretty clean, I haven't found anything bad Oct 11 22:22
msb_cubexyz: Thanks for that stuff!Oct 11 22:23
cubexyzmsb_, what stuff?Oct 11 22:23
cubexyz:)Oct 11 22:23
cubexyzjust a mystery file that will be deletedOct 11 22:23
msb_Can't one just use the signed shim-loader and then any OS?Oct 11 22:23
cubexyzmaybeOct 11 22:24
MinceRonly as long as m$ will sign (and not revoke the signature on) a loader that will load any OSOct 11 22:24
MinceRsee 'malware scare' aboveOct 11 22:24
cubexyzit's such a simple thing, wanting the BIOS source codeOct 11 22:25
cubexyzand yet, so difficult to getOct 11 22:25
MinceRit's such a simple thing, wanting control over what a device someone bought with their own moneyOct 11 22:26
msb_But if you can save the original bios image, and then reflash it if MS manages to change your bios, you're ok, right?Oct 11 22:26
MinceRdoesOct 11 22:26
MinceRi'm not sure if you can even dump the imageOct 11 22:26
MinceRor where it actually stores the revocation informationOct 11 22:26
cubexyzright, it's all a big mysteryOct 11 22:27
msb_With the 990FX mobo, you can dump the bios image to a usb stick and restore it from there using only the bios -- no os.  You can do the same with the keys.Oct 11 22:28
cubexyzthe fact of the matter is, not even raspberry pi has BIOS source code Oct 11 22:28
msb_But hopefully some SBC does, with two ethernet ports, that can be used to make a router.Oct 11 22:30
MinceRor an ethernet port and a usb port, or two usb portsOct 11 22:30
MinceRthough i guess usb ethernet dongles are less than optimalOct 11 22:31
cubexyzeventually someone is going to do itOct 11 22:31
MinceRbut afaik raspberry pi-s already use an ethernet port that's internally connected via usbOct 11 22:31
cubexyzAward merged with Phoenix btwOct 11 22:31
cubexyzthe other question is why did IBM offer 286 BIOS source code, and never again after that?Oct 11 22:32
msb_cubexyz: Right!  Two more names I remember.Oct 11 22:33
cubexyzbut I don't remember flashing the BIOS on a 286Oct 11 22:34
cubexyzimagine booting into a BASIC of your own designOct 11 22:35
*MinceR shuddersOct 11 22:35
cubexyzon the Amiga we changed the rom chipOct 11 22:39
MinceRapparently now discrete rom chips and sockets are too expensiveOct 11 22:40
msb_The hard part may be finding the AMT/DASH command packet codes so they can be filtered out.Oct 11 22:40
cubexyzyou had to update the BIOS somehow on the IBM AT to get 720K 3.5" drives workingOct 11 22:41

cubexyzinteresting magazine prediction from 1987:Oct 12 00:02
cubexyz"the market will transition from an IBM standard to a Intel/MS-DOS/expansion bus standard"Oct 12 00:02
msb_Can't find anything on the AMD website about whether the FX-8350 contains the DASH system.  DASH is supposed to be an "open standard" so maybe they'll talk to me on the phone about it.Oct 12 00:34
msb_I've narrowed the population I want to find secure solutions for two groups:  1. People willing to use Linux who already have a computer they like 2. People willing to use Linux and are looking to buy a new fast computer.Oct 12 00:38
msb_Of course windows users are hopeless.Oct 12 00:38
msb_AMD FX-8350 CPU and ASUS 990FX mobo will work for group 2 (which includes me) if that CPU doesn't have DASH or if its command packets can be filtered out by an SBC router.Oct 12 00:41
cubexyzthe corporate forces are aligned against the peopleOct 12 00:41
cubexyzMicrosoft, AMI, Adobe, Apple, etc etcOct 12 00:41
cubexyzoh you may as well add HP to that listOct 12 00:42
cubexyzthey've been quite unhelpful in the last decade or soOct 12 00:42
msb_Why include AMI?  Their BIOS for the 990FX can totally disable secure-boot, and can easily (re-)flash the BIOS.Oct 12 00:43
cubexyzwell AMI is a google partnerOct 12 00:49
msb_...and remove and replace the secure-boot keys.Oct 12 00:49
msb_So?Oct 12 00:50
cubexyzI have to study this on a case by case basis but so far I do not trust AMIOct 12 00:53
cubexyzthere's been cases of ASUS notebook owners getting locked out of LinuxOct 12 00:54
cubexyzAMI BIOSOct 12 00:55
msb_Were you able to fix them?Oct 12 00:55
cubexyzno, these were people I haven't met in personOct 12 00:56
cubexyzjust telling me about it via emailOct 12 00:56
<--jono has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)Oct 12 00:56
msb_Did they get fixed?Oct 12 00:56
cubexyzbasically what they tell me is that they disabled secure boot and still couldn't load linux onOct 12 00:56
msb_So this was during Linux installation?Oct 12 00:57
cubexyzyes, I think after quite a long time they did manage to get Kubuntu on Oct 12 00:59
msb_What did the problem turn out to be?Oct 12 00:59
cubexyzsomething about "launch CSM"Oct 12 00:59
msb_That's the compatibility (no secure-boot) module.Oct 12 01:00
msb_Was their bios up to date?Oct 12 01:01
cubexyzI doubt itOct 12 01:01
msb_maybe thiOct 12 01:01
msb_maybe their CSM was half-baked.Oct 12 01:02
msb_It might be a comparatively new feature, as AMI realized that there are a lot of Linu Oct 12 01:03
msb_Linux users.Oct 12 01:03
msb_So that's not a reason to reject AMI.Oct 12 01:04
cubexyzI'm looking at some AMI code right nowOct 12 01:12
cubexyzand it's clear it's been designed mainly for Windows 7 Oct 12 01:12
cubexyzthere is much to study hereOct 12 01:13
msb_Does Linux ever execute any bios code once it has booted up?Oct 12 01:14
cubexyzI'll say that modern BIOS can operate at a level which is invisible to the main OSOct 12 01:17
cubexyzso basically AMI is writing for Windows firstOct 12 01:18
msb_can it do that if it never gets executed after boot.Oct 12 01:18
cubexyzLinux is an after-thoughtOct 12 01:18
cubexyzI know the Linux folks try to use the BIOS as little as possible since they don't trust itOct 12 01:18
msb_So we're interested in whether there are any nasties built into bios that could operate under Linux.Oct 12 01:19
cubexyzinvisible to Linux I think is the best way to describe itOct 12 01:19
cubexyzsometimes that is called ring -1Oct 12 01:19
cubexyzI know AMI tests on RedhatOct 12 01:21
-->jono (~jono@ubuntu/member/jono) has joined #techrightsOct 12 01:21
cubexyzthe BIOS knows which OS you haveOct 12 01:21
msb_First off, one should boot Linux air-gapped -- with the Net physically disconnected.  That way any nasties couldn't phone home.  So they'd have to know how to mess up any of the many distros from info included in the bios.Oct 12 01:21
cubexyzwell the first place I'm looking is SmmDriverDispatcher.cOct 12 01:22
cubexyzsome of it is under a BSD licenseOct 12 01:25
cubexyzalso there's comments complaining about what the Microsoft compiler doesOct 12 01:29
cubexyzwell probably wireshark or tcpdump would be good enough to see any phone home activityOct 12 01:31
cubexyzI guess it wouldn't show everythingOct 12 01:32
cubexyzif you ran everything for 10 years and never had a problem well then I would say it's fineOct 12 01:35
cubexyzbut my computers are all non-DASHOct 12 01:36
cubexyzit's interesting watching the ARP trafficOct 12 01:40
<--jono has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)Oct 12 01:40
cubexyzif the router becomes unreponsive I'll watch to see if the ARP messages are still happeningOct 12 01:42
msb_Ring -1 is for VM execs, right?  And since there are open-source VM execs, we should be able to figure out how to detect ring -1 activity.Oct 12 02:32

msb_systemd is an enormous godawful mess.  No wonder it has 36MB of source code.Oct 12 18:15
cubexyzmotherboard BIOS is getting very big alsoOct 12 18:15
cubexyzCedar Trail on it's own is 87 megs of filesOct 12 18:16
cubexyznot the sort of thing your going to be able to study easilyOct 12 18:16
cubexyzs/your/you're/Oct 12 18:16
cubexyzmy advice remains the same:Oct 12 18:17
cubexyzkeep one older computer with non-systemd and simpler BIOS (with source code if at all possible)Oct 12 18:17
msb_I once programmed for a company that made implantable defibrillators.  They had a test setup consisting of six PCs running some kind of object-oriented system to test the defibrillators (which were 6502 based).Oct 12 18:17
cubexyzdid you know that some of the PDP-11 folks consider PCs to be broken?Oct 12 18:19
msb_None of them could figure out what the object-oriented realtime system was actually doing.  I wrote a simple program to analyze the defibrillator output, which revealed that it was emitting spurious pulses that could cause fibrillation and kill the patient.  The company was not going to fix the defib, as they had already written up some 600 pages of test data for the FDA.  So they fired me the next week.Oct 12 18:20
cubexyzas in the design itself is badOct 12 18:20
msb_cubexyz: "bad" how?  With a good OS, PCs work fine.Oct 12 18:22

msb_What are you talking about?  Mine runs for months with no problems until there's a power failure.Oct 12 18:24
msb_You have a dozen of them.  Are they messing up all the time?Oct 12 18:24
cubexyzat the application level? definitelyOct 12 18:25
cubexyzat the X11 level? surelyOct 12 18:25
cubexyzdoes the text console fail? it doesOct 12 18:25

msb_Anyhow, you changed the subject to BIOS, which is mostly doing one thing at a time if it's doing anything (in Linux).Oct 12 18:28
cubexyzWhat I'm saying is that the complexitiy of the PC is such that one person can't understand itOct 12 18:28
cubexyzI'm not saying the architecture is broken, this PDP-11 guy is saying thatOct 12 18:29
MinceRi think there are too many dirty little secrets in all modern computersOct 12 18:29
MinceRsecret hardware designs, secret microcode, secret firmware, etc.Oct 12 18:30
cubexyzif you aren't switching from text console to X11 mode a lot you might not see some of the problems I'm seeingOct 12 18:30
msb_What I'm talking about is this article:  http://blog.darknedgy.net/technology/2015/10/11/0/  which reveals systemd to be a super-complex object-oriented real-time abortion enormously bigger than the one I encountered at the defibrillator company, which hid the fact that their product was going to stop people's hearts and kill them.Oct 12 18:31
cubexyzif I ran a system with no sound card, and no X11 at all then it would be extremely stableOct 12 18:31

MinceRand on top of that, there's a mandatory broken syslogd replacementOct 12 18:32

MinceRand the atrocious code qualityOct 12 18:32
cubexyzsystemd isn't Unix philosophyOct 12 18:33
cubexyzso I don't use itOct 12 18:33
cubexyzPDP11 guy says:Oct 12 18:33
cubexyzAnyone still recall how the memory layout actually looks like on a PC? Or the ugly architecture that x86 is? Or the strange and silly IRQ and DMA setups you needed to do on cards on the ISA bus, or the dependecies on the BIOS, which in the old days had the geometry of every kind of disk in tables in the BIOS, fixed even... Or the various video cards with incompatible interfaces and peculiarities..Oct 12 18:33
msb_To make systemd into something that could brick Linux computers at government command, probably no code changes would even be needed, just some parameter changes.Oct 12 18:34
cubexyzyou can brick the BIOS for that matterOct 12 18:34
cubexyzno systemd needed :)Oct 12 18:34
msb_Not remotely, unless via DASH.Oct 12 18:35
cubexyzthere's lots of other problems too, but in the hardwareOct 12 18:35
cubexyzsure, you can brick the BIOS with DASHOct 12 18:35
cubexyzjust overwrite it with malicious codeOct 12 18:36
cubexyzuh, without DASH I meanOct 12 18:36
cubexyzit's not likely thoughOct 12 18:36
MinceRCIH bricked the BIOS without DASH :>Oct 12 18:36
cubexyzrightOct 12 18:36
cubexyzthat's kind of why we have all this secure boot stuff nowOct 12 18:37
cubexyzit's good and bad at the same timeOct 12 18:37
cubexyzDASH is good and bad as wellOct 12 18:38
cubexyzwith DASH you could remotely fix problemsOct 12 18:38
cubexyzand cause them in the first placeOct 12 18:38
cubexyzif your BIOS has unused space, the bad code can hide in itOct 12 18:39
cubexyzI've already mentioned the BMP vulerabilityOct 12 18:40
msb_cubexyz: PCs evolved with innovation on top of innovation.  That's why the architecture is so "ugly" now.  But it works great!  And what happened to DEC, with its beautifully designed PDP-11 series?  They were too expensive, and DEC was sold off to Compaq, HP and Intel.Oct 12 18:40
cubexyzmsb_, right, DEC messed up big timeOct 12 18:41
msb_CIH is a windows virus, right?  Windows systems are hopelessly insecure.Oct 12 18:43
cubexyzCIH could KO the BIOS itself, not sure if that could happen with Linux Oct 12 18:44
cubexyzif the BIOS gets overwritten, all bets are offOct 12 18:44
cubexyzpersonally I can't think of PCs as 'great'Oct 12 18:46
cubexyzif you repair laptops often enough... you'll see what I meanOct 12 18:47
cubexyzdamaged GDUs, and other kinds of heat damageOct 12 18:47
cubexyzGPU? GPUOct 12 18:47
MinceRthere are no PDP-11 laptops though, afaikOct 12 18:48
msb_cubexyz: PCs are what we've got.  Staying with AMD for the moment, the FX-8350 is an excellent CPU and the ASUS 990FX is an excellent mobo in which secure-boot can easily be turned off.  So if the DASH vulnerability can be fixed, or doesn't even exist with the 8350, that combination provides a superb high-speed computer suitable for everyone.Oct 12 18:48
msb_High-speed _and_ secure.Oct 12 18:49
cubexyzno, no PDP-11 laptops, microPDP in a small case is the best you can do Oct 12 18:49
cubexyzexcept you have tons of binary blobs, and no clue what they doOct 12 18:49
cubexyzthat's the problem with modern PCsOct 12 18:50

MinceRsomething msb_ used to complain aboutOct 12 21:06
msb_cubexyz: I think when your system sees an ARP packet with its ip-address, it responds with a packet containing its MAC address.  So the upstream node knows which customer is on which ip-address.Oct 12 21:08

MinceR164837 < msb_> The men say that freedom of speech entitles game creators to make games that victimize women, and entitles game players to play and enjoy them.Oct 13 13:54
MinceR165029 < msb_> The problem is, that humans are programmable by speech and video, and they can be programmed into psychopath behaviors like rape, torture, and murder.  Oct 13 13:54
MinceR               Some speech has consequences -- yelling "fire" in a crowded theater  -- so freedom of speech requires some limitations.Oct 13 13:54
MinceRi know you will ignore this, and i will not quote it again.Oct 13 13:54
msb_I went on to say that game creators and game reviewers should self-limit their creation and approval of games that victimize women.  I did not in any way "come out in support of global internet censorship in the service of political correctness", as you lied that I did.Oct 13 13:57
MinceRthe context was the UN plotting global censorship on behalf of the SJWsOct 13 13:58
msb_Which is totally different from people _self-limiting speech_ that encourages attacks on women.Oct 13 13:59
MinceRright, chilling effects, self-censorship and "socially acceptable" bullying are A-OKOct 13 14:01
msb_There is also the principle that the remedy for evil speech is more speech condemning it.  In this case, feminists should publicly shame those who create and approve of games that encourage the victimization of women.Oct 13 14:02
MinceRthat's better, yesOct 13 14:02
MinceRbut that's not where the UN and the SJWs are goingOct 13 14:02
msb_Only governments can create "chilling effects".   And public disaproval and shaming of those who encourage rape, torture and murder of women is _not_ "bullying".Oct 13 14:03
msb_While encouragement of rape, torture and murder of women _is_ bullying.Oct 13 14:04

msb_Lie #5 "ah, so we should ask msb_ which video games we're allowed to play"  I never said that people should not be allowed to play video games that victimize women.  I said they should be criticized and shamed if they do.Oct 13 14:16
MinceRthey should be bullied, fired from their jobs and jailed, but not disallowed. got it.Oct 13 14:16
msb_Lie #6 "they should be bullied, fired from their jobs and jailed, but not disallowed. got it."  If a person tells others that he enjoys simulated rape, torture and murder of women, then people should try to discourage him (non-violently), as that may save women's lives.  If an employee publicly admits such enjoyment, his employer may reasonably fire him to protect the women in the workplace.  Only government can jail people.  Oct 13 14:25
msb_Discouragement and firing are not "disallowing" the sadist from playing the games, but are making him face the reasonable consequences of publicly advocating rape, torture and murder.Oct 13 14:25

msb_If I may counter the doom-and-gloom, Devuan Linux is already being used in alpha state, including by a person here.  Once it's declared fully ready, concerns about "systemd, garrettux and debian 8" will go away.  And for people who want to buy a new desktop, I've found an excellent cheap fast AMD 8-core CPU FX-8350 and a superb mobo in which UEFI/secure-boot can easily be turned off.  I should soon receive info from AMD that will Oct 13 18:46
msb_prevent intrusions using the DASH system with a $50 SBC custom open-source router (if the FX-8350 even _has_ the DASH system).  So with the help of cubexyz and others, we'll have a secure Linux and a secure platform to run it on.  Life is good!Oct 13 18:46

msb_If he does, the current state of the kernel can simply be saved and used into the future.  As to systemd, etc, there are always lousy alternatives, like windows.  But all that's needed is one _good_ alternative, like Devuan, and smart people can make the good choice, and others will follow.Oct 13 18:50
MinceRconsider how microsoft kept (and still keeps) trying to keep their competition off the marketOct 13 18:50
MinceRredcrap is already employing similar tacticsOct 13 18:50

cubexyznot sure what the status is for netbsd to be honestOct 13 19:32
cubexyzThe advantage of NetBSD used to be that it ran on everythingOct 13 19:32
MinceRafaik its advantages also include virtualization, LKM support and no consorting with launchd and similar garbageOct 13 19:33
cubexyzit's not the leanest distro out there, but if you have 24 megs of ram or more it's OKOct 13 19:35
cubexyzOpenBSD focuses more on security, NetBSD focuses more on portabilityOct 13 19:37

cubexyzdo I recommend people running Linux and BSD, depending on the situation? DefinitelyOct 13 19:38
cubexyzfor non-x86 NetBSD is probably the best choiceOct 13 19:41
MinceRafaik linux still runs on more architectures than netbsdOct 13 19:42
MinceRbut if redcrap has their way, this will changeOct 13 19:42
cubexyzPC-BSD is strictly x86-64Oct 13 19:42
cubexyzdidn't redhat already drop a bunch of architectures?Oct 13 19:44
MinceRdunno, debian started dropping stuff left and right ever since they decided they'll force systemd on their usersOct 13 19:45

cubexyzthe bad outweights the good I'd sayOct 14 23:19
cubexyzit's like when major power plants started adding remote access to control panelsOct 14 23:19

cubexyzactually there was a WNED show about the NSA and stuxnet on TV tonightOct 14 23:28
msb_Good, but people think things like stuxnet would never apply to them.Oct 14 23:28

<--jono has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)Oct 14 23:42
msb_Very few computer-savvy people are capable of understanding that the US govt destr0yed Afgh. Iraq, Libya, half of Syria, installed a Nazi govt in Ukraine, and murdered 2,000,000 people, all since 2001.  Their eyes just glaze over and they change the subject.  It's like they're under a post-hypnotic suggestion.  They _can't_ think about it.Oct 14 23:45
msb_Anyhow that pdf on DASH is gold!  The xml schemas toward the end even seem to have a port number.  Maybe filtering out packets with that port# would do it!Oct 14 23:47
msb_Thanks!Oct 14 23:47
msb_It's gonna take me a while to study it though.  Just the fact that it's all about windows programs makes me want to puke.Oct 14 23:54
cubexyzLinus himself has remarked that BIOS development is windows-centric to a large degreeOct 14 23:55

cubexyzbad hackers could attack the firmware of your CDROMOct 15 00:11
cubexyzI think Dragos was talking about thatOct 15 00:11
cubexyzthe other thing I didn't like was the region code thing... you could change it half a dozen times then it gets lockedOct 15 00:12
msb_I guess once bad hackers get in (and the govt are the worst) they can change anything changeable.Oct 15 00:13
msb_A typical scenario the US govt could do, following from their actions in Ukraine and Syria, is to blow off a nuke somewhere in the US and say that Russia did it, and then kill the Internet and all computers so that researchers and honest news sources couldn't talk about it.Oct 15 00:17

cubexyzok, he actually died on the operating table, I wasn't sure about that Oct 15 00:30
cubexyzdid you know that Postel was opposed by NSI?Oct 15 00:31

msb_Talk about rt.com or globalresearch.ca, even here, and blammo!Oct 15 00:43
msb_The power of the Bernays method is enormous.  Not just "what you tell me three times is true", but what  you tell me 3,000 times is absolute fact that can never be questioned.Oct 15 00:45

cubexyzno, if you use a browser that can't use SSL you get nothing at allOct 17 23:52
msb_Wow, that's right.  I thought it was because I was using HTTPS Everywhere, but I just tried it with lynx and it switched from http to https.  Why should it do that?Oct 17 23:59

msb_cubexyz: "hardly anyone seems to be able to function on a computer without windows, it's sad"  That's not the problem.  People (except you) want _fast_ computers so they can watch highly-compressed videos, and do video editing and play action games.  These activities, and others like fast compiles, fast switching between virtual desktops, and good speed with interpreted languages like Ruby, REQUIRE A FAST COMPUTER, whether it's running Oct 11 01:01
msb_Linux or Windows.Oct 11 01:01
msb_cubexyz: People also want large displays, which are easier on the eyes, and more entertaining when watching movies, and more functional when editing text or source code because you can view two or three documents on the screen side by side at the same time.  Big screens with lots of pixels require a FAST COMPUTER to calculate all those pixels when watching a highly-compressed video or playing an action game.Oct 11 01:08
cubexyzmsb_, you're so fixated on watching videosOct 11 01:09
cubexyzI almost never bother doing thatOct 11 01:09
*pidgin_log has quit (Quit: Leaving.)Oct 11 01:09
cubexyzI can assure you there's lots of people who don't use their computers to edit videoOct 11 01:10
cubexyzthey do online banking, write emails, some people programOct 11 01:10
cubexyzI watched all the stuff you sent me (most of it at least) on my P3Oct 11 01:11
msb_cubexyz: "fixated" "bother" are propaganda words the way you're using them here.  The vast majority of people enjoy watching movies and other videos like ones about drug companies, political goings-on, etc.Oct 11 01:11
cubexyzyou are fixated :)Oct 11 01:12
cubexyzyou endless blather on about itOct 11 01:12
cubexyzI had far older computers that could watch CDI's onOct 11 01:13
cubexyzI think Tivos had a 486 class CPUOct 11 01:13
cubexyzbut with special video chipsOct 11 01:13
cubexyzI think people waste a lot of time watching youtube and TVOct 11 01:14
cubexyzwhat is that quote... "poor people have big TVs and rich peopel have big libraries"Oct 11 01:14
msb_Most people probably don't edit videos.  But _many_ play action computer games.  And _most_ watch movies and other videos, and they like big displays with lots of sharp detail.Oct 11 01:15
cubexyzwell I haven't seen an statistics so any comment on my part would be just speculationOct 11 01:16

msb_"I don't play games much"  What is the purpose of our discussion here?  To find good computer solutions for YOU, or to find them for EVERYONE?  I think it's to help everyone.Oct 11 01:19
cubexyzif you had a kid, a teenager, and he/she played games all the time and watched a lot of TV and was failing in school what would you say then?Oct 11 01:20
cubexyzI don't think you would like thatOct 11 01:20
cubexyzpeople watching game shows promoting consumerism?Oct 11 01:21
cubexyzit's just sadOct 11 01:21
msb_That's a Red Herring propaganda ploy.  Many people play games, and watch certain things on TV that they specifically like, in moderation. Oct 11 01:22
cubexyzso no thanksOct 11 01:22
cubexyzI'd love to look at some statistics on thatOct 11 01:23
msb_So what are you trying to do?  Foist computers on people that will be incapable of giving them the things they enjoy, so they will be forced into your monastic existence?Oct 11 01:23
cubexyzI'd say people are watching more TV now than in the pastOct 11 01:23
cubexyzno, the customer tells me what they want :)Oct 11 01:24
cubexyzI merely make suggestionsOct 11 01:24
cubexyzI did warn people not to use windows 10 thoughOct 11 01:25
msb_Is that a "yes" answer to my question?  Are you trying to reduce people's computer capabilities in order to force them into your life-style?Oct 11 01:25
cubexyzI can't force people to do anything, I assure youOct 11 01:25
cubexyzI'm trying to get FOSS BIOS going actuallyOct 11 01:26
cubexyzI have nothing against new computers except for secure boot/intel boot guard, and things of that natureOct 11 01:26
msb_If people buy new fast computers because they want Windows 10, that's a good thing, because when they find out how bad 10 is, we can tell them about Linux, and they'll have a good fast machine to run it on,Oct 11 01:27
cubexyzand currently network television is bad bad badOct 11 01:27
cubexyzyou know it's bad :)Oct 11 01:27
cubexyzthey don't even like windows 10, that's what I've been hearing latelyOct 11 01:28
cubexyzwell, people usually call me when they're having a problemOct 11 01:28
cubexyzso I fix the problem... if they feel like hearing my philosophic observations on stuff then I'll tell them what I thinkOct 11 01:29
cubexyzotherwise it's problem fixed, paid, byeOct 11 01:29
cubexyzit's mostly in here that I ramble on about stuff because they tend to be more receptive Oct 11 01:30
msb_"Madame Secretary" is good.  "Marvel's Agents of SHIELD" is good.  "Castle" is good.  "Limitless" is good.  These are all current network TV series.Oct 11 01:30

cubexyza few have actually listened and bought machines with those OSes from meOct 11 01:32
cubexyzno not necessarily LinuxOct 11 01:32
cubexyzsometimes they buy Linux without realizing it, ironically enoughOct 11 01:33
cubexyzsometimes I talk about repairabilityOct 11 01:33
cubexyzI've fixed a few HDTVs :)Oct 11 01:33

cubexyzbut if I watch ABC or CBS and see 8 or 9 commercials in a row, that's it, I'm doneOct 11 01:35
cubexyzI have a PVR (which I'm not completely happy with) so I can on the few occasions where I do watch TV, fast-forward through any commercialsOct 11 01:36
cubexyzbut it's like 35% to 40% commercials nowOct 11 01:36
cubexyzI can live without itOct 11 01:37
cubexyzI think I mentioned the Microsoft ads on Elementary alreadyOct 11 01:38
cubexyzmonastic life is surely an exaggeration :)Oct 11 01:38
cubexyzI'd rather read books on Gutenberg than watch TV Oct 11 01:39
cubexyza real monk wouldn't fix TVs I don't thinkOct 11 01:39
msb_The shows I watch are no more than about 30%, and I record them from cable-TV and then skip past the commercials.  I also remove those obnoxious channel logos from the lower right corner, using an mplayer feature and some scripts I wrote.Oct 11 01:42
cubexyzI once saw an ad take up a good 25% of the lower screen during the programOct 11 01:43
cubexyzit just gets worse and worse each yearOct 11 01:43
cubexyzit's better to wait for the DVD/Bluray and rip it to the computerOct 11 01:43
cubexyzBell and Rogers have a duopoly in Canada, and it's not a good thingOct 11 01:44
cubexyzI imagine the United States is similarOct 11 01:44
cubexyzthe PVR from Bell must be the most blacked-boxed device I've ever seenOct 11 01:46
cubexyzvideos are encrypted and non-transferableOct 11 01:47
msb_"Elementary" will be back next month -- great!  Did you refuse to watch it because it had Microshit ads?Oct 11 01:47
cubexyzno, I just complain about it :)Oct 11 01:47
cubexyzsometimes I read when on the exercise bike as I'm a bit worried I'm sitting too muchOct 11 01:48
msb_Not all good shows come out on DVD.Oct 11 01:49
cubexyzthey put "My Mother the Car" on DVD, they don't seem to be too choosey :)Oct 11 01:49
cubexyzyoutube as a 240p mode for us techno-minimalistsOct 11 01:51
msb_I'm told one can even find highly compressed high resolution copies of TV shows, with the commercials removed, on file-sharing cites.  Maybe on the Dark Web, along with the Kitty Porn.Oct 11 01:51
msb_cites -> sitesOct 11 01:51

cubexyzbut that kind of person is very rareOct 11 01:58

MinceRi never did that :)Oct 11 03:20
cubexyzit actually switched the controller machine to text console as wellOct 11 03:21
MinceR:DOct 11 03:21
cubexyzif the cursor is on the controller machine, then I can just switch that machine to text console (as expected)Oct 11 03:22
cubexyzand as I bonus, I managed to bork up both text consolesOct 11 03:22
cubexyzbut ... interestingly enough, not by x2xOct 11 03:23
cubexyzand there's no get-out-of-borked-up-text-console free framebuffer module on openbsdOct 11 03:24
cubexyzif the text console gets borked up on Linux I can do: sudo modprobe radeonfbOct 11 03:25
cubexyzbut that does't exist in openbsdOct 11 03:25
MinceRdo openbsd gurus have an idea to fix that?Oct 11 03:25
cubexyznot reallyOct 11 03:26
cubexyzyou can use serial terminal or ssh from ethernet to do stuff of courseOct 11 03:26
cubexyzmaybe if you knew exactly which registers to write to you could fix itOct 11 03:27
cubexyzI know openbsd does: Oct 11 03:30
cubexyzwsdisplay0 at vga1 mux 1: console #2880x25, vt100 emulation#29Oct 11 03:31
cubexyzah, that's garbledOct 11 03:31
MinceR:)Oct 11 03:31
cubexyzthe parathensis has been converted to #28 and #29Oct 11 03:32
cubexyzwsdisplay0 at vga1 mux 1: console (80x25, vt100 emulation)Oct 11 03:32
cubexyzthat is correctOct 11 03:32
cubexyzI must admit Linux does this better than openbsdOct 11 03:35
MinceRbut not for long, if redcrap has its way :>Oct 11 03:35
cubexyzthe openbsd gurus don't think the framebuffer is importantOct 11 03:36
cubexyzyou can control the text console on openbsd with:Oct 11 03:37
cubexyzwsconscfg -t 80x50 6Oct 11 03:37
cubexyzbut if it completely goes blank then you're screwedOct 11 03:37
cubexyzparenthesisOct 11 03:40
cubexyzit's stupid there's no reset featureOct 11 03:46
cubexyzSystem/390 does things a lot better than PCsOct 11 04:03
cubexyzseparate memory partitions for one thingOct 11 04:04
cubexyzbasically less code for GUIs and more code for error detection, error isolation and recoveryOct 11 04:05

schestowitzNiceOct 12 02:26
cubexyzI'm just pointing out that AMI is heavily dependent on MicrosoftOct 12 02:26
cubexyzand of course it makes it harder to do basic stuff with AMI BIOS with a Linux computerOct 12 02:27
cubexyzlike flashing your biosOct 12 02:27
cubexyzHence AMI is bad, and better alternatives existOct 12 02:27
msb_I would like to present an alternative.  When I first bought a mobo, and maybe before when I looked into the BOct 12 02:29
msb_BIOS of my first PC.  The BIOS mfr that I remember is AMI.  They may have been the first and principal bios mfr.Oct 12 02:30
cubexyzGary Kildall invented the first BIOSOct 12 02:30
msb_They started using MS tools because those were what was available for PCs.  I did too.Oct 12 02:30
cubexyzoriginally Intel wrote their own toolsOct 12 02:31
cubexyzthen shortly after that they started using MASMOct 12 02:32
msb_But AMI was the popular BIOS mfr, not Kildall.Oct 12 02:32
cubexyzthere was a history of CP/M computers before then IBM PC existedOct 12 02:34
msb_You say updating the bios requires a windows program.  It's not true, at least with the asus 990fx mobo.  A bios image can be loaded from a usb stick using only the bios, no OS at all.Oct 12 02:34
msb_The point is, the fact that AMI uses MS tools does not mean that their BIOS is "bad".  Oct 12 02:35
cubexyzI fail to see how it could be any worseOct 12 02:36
msb_The 990FX mobo uses an ami bios, but it can be updated without using windows.Oct 12 02:36
cubexyzthat's about as bad as can beOct 12 02:36
MinceRi think we'll find out in a decade or a few decades how bad it can beOct 12 02:36
MinceRapparently everyone who has power wants thatOct 12 02:37
cubexyzthe original IBM PC BIOS was built with Intel ASM86 Oct 12 02:37
msb_Your use of "bad" and "worse" are contentless judgement terms.  You're afraid of contamination.  You have to specify precisely _what_ is bad and _why_ it is bad.Oct 12 02:37
cubexyzI did specifiy _exactly_ what was badOct 12 02:38
msb_What?  Everything from AMI?Oct 12 02:38
cubexyzproprietary closed source BIOS which can't be reviewed or checked in any way other than reverse engineeringOct 12 02:38
cubexyzif it wasn't for the leaks, I would have no clue at all about what AMI does Oct 12 02:39
msb_What I suspect you're going to come up with is a slow expensive mobo/cpu combination, that will be of no use to people who want to play games or watch videos.  But you won't care because _you_ don't play games or watch videos.Oct 12 02:40
cubexyzmsb_ you are a real goofOct 12 02:40
cubexyzI worked for LGPOct 12 02:40
cubexyzdo you know what that means?Oct 12 02:41
msb_No, I'm telling the truth.Oct 12 02:41
msb_NoOct 12 02:41
cubexyzit means I worked for a video game publisherOct 12 02:41
cubexyzLinux Game PublishingOct 12 02:41
msb_So what?  If your solution is no good for playing games or watching compressed videos, it will not be accepted by the majority of people.  If you don't care about that, then you should admit it.Oct 12 02:42
msb_Linux can already circumvent UEFI, and the 990FX mobo can even turn it off entirely.Oct 12 02:43
MinceRcan it circumvent Restricted Boot that presents no option for disabling and doesn't let you to change the keys?Oct 12 02:44
msb_So the problem that remains is AMT/DASH, and if that can be solved with a $50 to $100 SBC router with open-source code, then _that_ solution _will_ work for most people.Oct 12 02:45
msb_MinceR: There is some kind of shim loader that is signed with MS keys that enables all Linuxes to boot.Oct 12 02:46
MinceRuntil m$ makes up a malware scare and revokes those keys.Oct 12 02:46
MinceRs/those keys/the certificate that loader is signed with/Oct 12 02:47
cubexyzright, let's become more dependent on Microsoft :-POct 12 02:47
cubexyzwhat a stupid ideaOct 12 02:47
MinceRhaving m$ hold the only keys to one's "computer" is unacceptableOct 12 02:47
cubexyzit's very simple...Oct 12 02:47
msb_Can those keys be revoked?  That would require the bios to call home to MS before accepting the keys.]Oct 12 02:47
cubexyzif you don't have the source code you don't have control, simple as thatOct 12 02:47
MinceRafaik it's designed so it can be revokedOct 12 02:47
msb_MinceR: please give a reference.Oct 12 02:48
MinceRbut it may require booting some OS that's obedient to m$ to actually do the call homeOct 12 02:48
MinceRanother way would be exploiting a security hole in winblows to chain-load your own bootloaderOct 12 02:48
MinceRbut i don't want to have to jailbreak my computerOct 12 02:48
msb_In that case, if the shim loader loads Linux, the MS key cannot be revoked.Oct 12 02:48

*amarsh04 has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Oct 12 02:59
cubexyzall AMI has to do to change my mind about them is simple: give me commented source code to one motherboardOct 12 02:59
cubexyzthat's it... if they do that, I'll give them a thumbs upOct 12 03:00
cubexyzpeople do have a vague idea that the computer world is getting more closedOct 12 03:01
cubexyzlook at PVRs, once they did not encrypt the video, now they almost always doOct 12 03:01
cubexyzMinceR, hopefully Novena will catch on and become cheaperOct 12 03:02
MinceRhopefully they're willing to manufacture the Senoko boards againOct 12 03:03
MinceRwithout those, it isn't even a laptopOct 12 03:03
MinceRat any rate, it's probably a PITA to acquire at allOct 12 03:04
MinceRwell, at least some chromebooks are available for sale in hungary nowOct 12 03:04
MinceRafaict a few months ago there were noneOct 12 03:04
msb_cubexyz: It's ridiculous to expect AMI to give you "commented source code to one motherboard".  They would be killing their entire business -- their source of income.Oct 12 03:06
cubexyzmsb_, I told them any motherboard, no matter how oldOct 12 03:06
cubexyzwell, newer than IBM PC at leastOct 12 03:07
msb_What would a very old one accomplish?Oct 12 03:07
cubexyzI have commented AMI BIOS source code anywaysOct 12 03:07
msb_Please share it.Oct 12 03:07
msb_Does it deal with UEFI/secure-boot or AMT/DASH?Oct 12 03:08
MinceRwell, redcrap has apparently developed a method to avoid leaking commented source codeOct 12 03:08
cubexyzI have two: 1999 era, and 2011 era BIOSOct 12 03:08
MinceRthey don't write comments in the first placeOct 12 03:08
cubexyzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/ami-firmware.torrentOct 12 03:09
cubexyzthat's the newer oneOct 12 03:09
msb_So far, what I've seen about MS revoking their keys involves MS putting out a BIOS update.  Oct 12 03:09
MinceRi don't think that's a full-blown BIOS updateOct 12 03:10
MinceRbut what if it is?Oct 12 03:10
MinceRthey're still going to install it automatically if you let their malware boot onceOct 12 03:10

MinceRmystery meat!Oct 12 03:11
MinceRyou have no chance to survive make your time.Oct 12 03:11
msb_To avoid that, one can refuse any BIOS update.  But a safer approach is to save your working BIOS, and reflash with that if your bios gets updated against your wishes.Oct 12 03:11
MinceRif they allow you to reflashOct 12 03:11
cubexyzsome notes:Oct 12 03:12
cubexyzhttp://www.maxhost.org/other/bios.txtOct 12 03:12
cubexyzthe weird thing is AMI does have a SVN for BIOS source codeOct 12 03:14

cubexyzthe problem with using Microsoft's key is what if you compile your kernel and now they need you to have a signed kernel?Oct 12 03:19
cubexyzit's a problemOct 12 03:19
MinceRprobably one of the first steps will involve demanding you to use redcrap's signed kernel blobOct 12 03:21
MinceRand it will get darker from thereOct 12 03:21
cubexyzso forced systemd potentiallyOct 12 03:21

MinceRi suspect that kernel will be garrettux anywayOct 12 03:22

cubexyzthe 1999 BIOS is pretty clean, I haven't found anything bad Oct 12 03:22
msb_cubexyz: Thanks for that stuff!Oct 12 03:23
cubexyzmsb_, what stuff?Oct 12 03:23
cubexyz:)Oct 12 03:23
cubexyzjust a mystery file that will be deletedOct 12 03:23
msb_Can't one just use the signed shim-loader and then any OS?Oct 12 03:23
cubexyzmaybeOct 12 03:24
MinceRonly as long as m$ will sign (and not revoke the signature on) a loader that will load any OSOct 12 03:24
MinceRsee 'malware scare' aboveOct 12 03:24
cubexyzit's such a simple thing, wanting the BIOS source codeOct 12 03:25
cubexyzand yet, so difficult to getOct 12 03:25
MinceRit's such a simple thing, wanting control over what a device someone bought with their own moneyOct 12 03:26
msb_But if you can save the original bios image, and then reflash it if MS manages to change your bios, you're ok, right?Oct 12 03:26
MinceRdoesOct 12 03:26
MinceRi'm not sure if you can even dump the imageOct 12 03:26
MinceRor where it actually stores the revocation informationOct 12 03:26
cubexyzright, it's all a big mysteryOct 12 03:27
msb_With the 990FX mobo, you can dump the bios image to a usb stick and restore it from there using only the bios -- no os.  You can do the same with the keys.Oct 12 03:28
cubexyzthe fact of the matter is, not even raspberry pi has BIOS source code Oct 12 03:28
msb_But hopefully some SBC does, with two ethernet ports, that can be used to make a router.Oct 12 03:30
MinceRor an ethernet port and a usb port, or two usb portsOct 12 03:30
MinceRthough i guess usb ethernet dongles are less than optimalOct 12 03:31
cubexyzeventually someone is going to do itOct 12 03:31
MinceRbut afaik raspberry pi-s already use an ethernet port that's internally connected via usbOct 12 03:31
cubexyzAward merged with Phoenix btwOct 12 03:31
cubexyzthe other question is why did IBM offer 286 BIOS source code, and never again after that?Oct 12 03:32
msb_cubexyz: Right!  Two more names I remember.Oct 12 03:33
cubexyzbut I don't remember flashing the BIOS on a 286Oct 12 03:34
cubexyzimagine booting into a BASIC of your own designOct 12 03:35

cubexyzon the Amiga we changed the rom chipOct 12 03:39
MinceRapparently now discrete rom chips and sockets are too expensiveOct 12 03:40
msb_The hard part may be finding the AMT/DASH command packet codes so they can be filtered out.Oct 12 03:40
cubexyzyou had to update the BIOS somehow on the IBM AT to get 720K 3.5" drives workingOct 12 03:41

cubexyzinteresting magazine prediction from 1987:Oct 12 05:02
cubexyz"the market will transition from an IBM standard to a Intel/MS-DOS/expansion bus standard"Oct 12 05:02
msb_Can't find anything on the AMD website about whether the FX-8350 contains the DASH system.  DASH is supposed to be an "open standard" so maybe they'll talk to me on the phone about it.Oct 12 05:34
msb_I've narrowed the population I want to find secure solutions for two groups:  1. People willing to use Linux who already have a computer they like 2. People willing to use Linux and are looking to buy a new fast computer.Oct 12 05:38
msb_Of course windows users are hopeless.Oct 12 05:38
msb_AMD FX-8350 CPU and ASUS 990FX mobo will work for group 2 (which includes me) if that CPU doesn't have DASH or if its command packets can be filtered out by an SBC router.Oct 12 05:41
cubexyzthe corporate forces are aligned against the peopleOct 12 05:41
cubexyzMicrosoft, AMI, Adobe, Apple, etc etcOct 12 05:41
cubexyzoh you may as well add HP to that listOct 12 05:42
cubexyzthey've been quite unhelpful in the last decade or soOct 12 05:42
msb_Why include AMI?  Their BIOS for the 990FX can totally disable secure-boot, and can easily (re-)flash the BIOS.Oct 12 05:43
cubexyzwell AMI is a google partnerOct 12 05:49
msb_...and remove and replace the secure-boot keys.Oct 12 05:49
msb_So?Oct 12 05:50
cubexyzI have to study this on a case by case basis but so far I do not trust AMIOct 12 05:53
cubexyzthere's been cases of ASUS notebook owners getting locked out of LinuxOct 12 05:54
cubexyzAMI BIOSOct 12 05:55
msb_Were you able to fix them?Oct 12 05:55
cubexyzno, these were people I haven't met in personOct 12 05:56
cubexyzjust telling me about it via emailOct 12 05:56
*jono has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)Oct 12 05:56
msb_Did they get fixed?Oct 12 05:56
cubexyzbasically what they tell me is that they disabled secure boot and still couldn't load linux onOct 12 05:56
msb_So this was during Linux installation?Oct 12 05:57
cubexyzyes, I think after quite a long time they did manage to get Kubuntu on Oct 12 05:59
msb_What did the problem turn out to be?Oct 12 05:59
cubexyzsomething about "launch CSM"Oct 12 05:59
msb_That's the compatibility (no secure-boot) module.Oct 12 06:00
msb_Was their bios up to date?Oct 12 06:01
cubexyzI doubt itOct 12 06:01
msb_maybe thiOct 12 06:01
msb_maybe their CSM was half-baked.Oct 12 06:02
msb_It might be a comparatively new feature, as AMI realized that there are a lot of Linu Oct 12 06:03
msb_Linux users.Oct 12 06:03
msb_So that's not a reason to reject AMI.Oct 12 06:04
cubexyzI'm looking at some AMI code right nowOct 12 06:12
cubexyzand it's clear it's been designed mainly for Windows 7 Oct 12 06:12
cubexyzthere is much to study hereOct 12 06:13
msb_Does Linux ever execute any bios code once it has booted up?Oct 12 06:14
cubexyzI'll say that modern BIOS can operate at a level which is invisible to the main OSOct 12 06:17
cubexyzso basically AMI is writing for Windows firstOct 12 06:18
msb_can it do that if it never gets executed after boot.Oct 12 06:18
cubexyzLinux is an after-thoughtOct 12 06:18
cubexyzI know the Linux folks try to use the BIOS as little as possible since they don't trust itOct 12 06:18
msb_So we're interested in whether there are any nasties built into bios that could operate under Linux.Oct 12 06:19
cubexyzinvisible to Linux I think is the best way to describe itOct 12 06:19
cubexyzsometimes that is called ring -1Oct 12 06:19
cubexyzI know AMI tests on RedhatOct 12 06:21
*jono (~jono@ubuntu/member/jono) has joined #techrightsOct 12 06:21
cubexyzthe BIOS knows which OS you haveOct 12 06:21
msb_First off, one should boot Linux air-gapped -- with the Net physically disconnected.  That way any nasties couldn't phone home.  So they'd have to know how to mess up any of the many distros from info included in the bios.Oct 12 06:21
cubexyzwell the first place I'm looking is SmmDriverDispatcher.cOct 12 06:22
cubexyzsome of it is under a BSD licenseOct 12 06:25
cubexyzalso there's comments complaining about what the Microsoft compiler doesOct 12 06:29
cubexyzwell probably wireshark or tcpdump would be good enough to see any phone home activityOct 12 06:31
cubexyzI guess it wouldn't show everythingOct 12 06:32
cubexyzif you ran everything for 10 years and never had a problem well then I would say it's fineOct 12 06:35
cubexyzbut my computers are all non-DASHOct 12 06:36
cubexyzit's interesting watching the ARP trafficOct 12 06:40
*jono has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)Oct 12 06:40
cubexyzif the router becomes unreponsive I'll watch to see if the ARP messages are still happeningOct 12 06:42
msb_Ring -1 is for VM execs, right?  And since there are open-source VM execs, we should be able to figure out how to detect ring -1 activity.Oct 12 07:32

msb_systemd is an enormous godawful mess.  No wonder it has 36MB of source code.Oct 12 23:15
cubexyzmotherboard BIOS is getting very big alsoOct 12 23:15
cubexyzCedar Trail on it's own is 87 megs of filesOct 12 23:16
cubexyznot the sort of thing your going to be able to study easilyOct 12 23:16
cubexyzs/your/you're/Oct 12 23:16
cubexyzmy advice remains the same:Oct 12 23:17
cubexyzkeep one older computer with non-systemd and simpler BIOS (with source code if at all possible)Oct 12 23:17
msb_I once programmed for a company that made implantable defibrillators.  They had a test setup consisting of six PCs running some kind of object-oriented system to test the defibrillators (which were 6502 based).Oct 12 23:17
cubexyzdid you know that some of the PDP-11 folks consider PCs to be broken?Oct 12 23:19
msb_None of them could figure out what the object-oriented realtime system was actually doing.  I wrote a simple program to analyze the defibrillator output, which revealed that it was emitting spurious pulses that could cause fibrillation and kill the patient.  The company was not going to fix the defib, as they had already written up some 600 pages of test data for the FDA.  So they fired me the next week.Oct 12 23:20
cubexyzas in the design itself is badOct 12 23:20

msb_Anyhow, you changed the subject to BIOS, which is mostly doing one thing at a time if it's doing anything (in Linux).Oct 12 23:28
cubexyzWhat I'm saying is that the complexitiy of the PC is such that one person can't understand itOct 12 23:28
cubexyzI'm not saying the architecture is broken, this PDP-11 guy is saying thatOct 12 23:29
MinceRi think there are too many dirty little secrets in all modern computersOct 12 23:29
MinceRsecret hardware designs, secret microcode, secret firmware, etc.Oct 12 23:30
cubexyzif you aren't switching from text console to X11 mode a lot you might not see some of the problems I'm seeingOct 12 23:30
msb_What I'm talking about is this article:  http://blog.darknedgy.net/technology/2015/10/11/0/  which reveals systemd to be a super-complex object-oriented real-time abortion enormously bigger than the one I encountered at the defibrillator company, which hid the fact that their product was going to stop people's hearts and kill them.Oct 12 23:31
cubexyzif I ran a system with no sound card, and no X11 at all then it would be extremely stableOct 12 23:31

cubexyzsystemd isn't Unix philosophyOct 12 23:33
cubexyzso I don't use itOct 12 23:33
cubexyzPDP11 guy says:Oct 12 23:33
cubexyzAnyone still recall how the memory layout actually looks like on a PC? Or the ugly architecture that x86 is? Or the strange and silly IRQ and DMA setups you needed to do on cards on the ISA bus, or the dependecies on the BIOS, which in the old days had the geometry of every kind of disk in tables in the BIOS, fixed even... Or the various video cards with incompatible interfaces and peculiarities..Oct 12 23:33
msb_To make systemd into something that could brick Linux computers at government command, probably no code changes would even be needed, just some parameter changes.Oct 12 23:34
cubexyzyou can brick the BIOS for that matterOct 12 23:34
cubexyzno systemd needed :)Oct 12 23:34
msb_Not remotely, unless via DASH.Oct 12 23:35
cubexyzthere's lots of other problems too, but in the hardwareOct 12 23:35
cubexyzsure, you can brick the BIOS with DASHOct 12 23:35
cubexyzjust overwrite it with malicious codeOct 12 23:36
cubexyzuh, without DASH I meanOct 12 23:36
cubexyzit's not likely thoughOct 12 23:36
MinceRCIH bricked the BIOS without DASH :>Oct 12 23:36
cubexyzrightOct 12 23:36
cubexyzthat's kind of why we have all this secure boot stuff nowOct 12 23:37
cubexyzit's good and bad at the same timeOct 12 23:37
cubexyzDASH is good and bad as wellOct 12 23:38
cubexyzwith DASH you could remotely fix problemsOct 12 23:38
cubexyzand cause them in the first placeOct 12 23:38
cubexyzif your BIOS has unused space, the bad code can hide in itOct 12 23:39
cubexyzI've already mentioned the BMP vulerabilityOct 12 23:40
msb_cubexyz: PCs evolved with innovation on top of innovation.  That's why the architecture is so "ugly" now.  But it works great!  And what happened to DEC, with its beautifully designed PDP-11 series?  They were too expensive, and DEC was sold off to Compaq, HP and Intel.Oct 12 23:40
cubexyzmsb_, right, DEC messed up big timeOct 12 23:41
msb_CIH is a windows virus, right?  Windows systems are hopelessly insecure.Oct 12 23:43
cubexyzCIH could KO the BIOS itself, not sure if that could happen with Linux Oct 12 23:44
cubexyzif the BIOS gets overwritten, all bets are offOct 12 23:44
cubexyzpersonally I can't think of PCs as 'great'Oct 12 23:46
cubexyzif you repair laptops often enough... you'll see what I meanOct 12 23:47
cubexyzdamaged GDUs, and other kinds of heat damageOct 12 23:47
cubexyzGPU? GPUOct 12 23:47
MinceRthere are no PDP-11 laptops though, afaikOct 12 23:48
msb_cubexyz: PCs are what we've got.  Staying with AMD for the moment, the FX-8350 is an excellent CPU and the ASUS 990FX is an excellent mobo in which secure-boot can easily be turned off.  So if the DASH vulnerability can be fixed, or doesn't even exist with the 8350, that combination provides a superb high-speed computer suitable for everyone.Oct 12 23:48
msb_High-speed _and_ secure.Oct 12 23:49
cubexyzno, no PDP-11 laptops, microPDP in a small case is the best you can do Oct 12 23:49
cubexyzexcept you have tons of binary blobs, and no clue what they doOct 12 23:49
cubexyzthat's the problem with modern PCsOct 12 23:50
msb_Well, we now have the C and assembly source code to modern AMI BIOS, so you can see what the blobs made from that will do.  I predict it's nothing malicious.Oct 12 23:52

msb_cubexyz: I think when your system sees an ARP packet with its ip-address, it responds with a packet containing its MAC address.  So the upstream node knows which customer is on which ip-address.Oct 13 02:08

msb_schestowitz: Perhaps you could tell MinceR to avoid personal insults like these three:  "<MinceR> msb_ is a fascist who refuses to stop pushing putin's propaganda."   "<MinceR> msb_ wants us all to be enslaved and/or killed by putin"  "  <MinceR> msb_ supports the destruction of human rights and freedoms while claiming he doesn't support that."          Oct 13 18:27

MinceRand yet you came out in support of global internet censorship in the service of political correctnessOct 13 18:50
msb_MinceR: You have spewed out yet another lying personal attack.  "<MinceR> and yet you came out in support of global internet censorship in the service of political correctness"  Please quote a statement from me to justify your lie.Oct 13 18:53
MinceR164837 < msb_> The men say that freedom of speech entitles game creators to make games that victimize women, and entitles game players to play and enjoy them.Oct 13 18:54
MinceR165029 < msb_> The problem is, that humans are programmable by speech and video, and they can be programmed into psychopath behaviors like rape, torture, and murder.  Oct 13 18:54
MinceR               Some speech has consequences -- yelling "fire" in a crowded theater  -- so freedom of speech requires some limitations.Oct 13 18:54
MinceRi know you will ignore this, and i will not quote it again.Oct 13 18:54
msb_I went on to say that game creators and game reviewers should self-limit their creation and approval of games that victimize women.  I did not in any way "come out in support of global internet censorship in the service of political correctness", as you lied that I did.Oct 13 18:57
MinceRthe context was the UN plotting global censorship on behalf of the SJWsOct 13 18:58
msb_Which is totally different from people _self-limiting speech_ that encourages attacks on women.Oct 13 18:59
MinceRright, chilling effects, self-censorship and "socially acceptable" bullying are A-OKOct 13 19:01
msb_There is also the principle that the remedy for evil speech is more speech condemning it.  In this case, feminists should publicly shame those who create and approve of games that encourage the victimization of women.Oct 13 19:02
MinceRthat's better, yesOct 13 19:02
MinceRbut that's not where the UN and the SJWs are goingOct 13 19:02
msb_Only governments can create "chilling effects".   And public disaproval and shaming of those who encourage rape, torture and murder of women is _not_ "bullying".Oct 13 19:03

MinceRhow do you survive in the usa without speaking the language?Oct 13 19:09

msb_Lie #3:  "bullying those who play video games because they play video games is also not acceptable"  Nobody does this.  Many disapprove of playing video games that encourage the  rape, torture, and murder of women.  That is a _subset_ of video games, not all of them.  Oct 13 19:12
*papa is now known as Guest7679Oct 13 19:12
MinceRah, so we should ask msb_ which video games we're allowed to playOct 13 19:13
msb_Lie #4: "campaigning to place women into a superior social position to men"  Nobody does that.  Feminists/SJW say that men should not attack women.Oct 13 19:13
MinceRthat's totally not fascistOct 13 19:13
MinceRapparently they also say that women should attack menOct 13 19:14
msb_Lie #5 "ah, so we should ask msb_ which video games we're allowed to play"  I never said that people should not be allowed to play video games that victimize women.  I said they should be criticized and shamed if they do.Oct 13 19:16
MinceRthey should be bullied, fired from their jobs and jailed, but not disallowed. got it.Oct 13 19:16
msb_Lie #6 "they should be bullied, fired from their jobs and jailed, but not disallowed. got it."  If a person tells others that he enjoys simulated rape, torture and murder of women, then people should try to discourage him (non-violently), as that may save women's lives.  If an employee publicly admits such enjoyment, his employer may reasonably fire him to protect the women in the workplace.  Only government can jail people.  Oct 13 19:25
msb_Discouragement and firing are not "disallowing" the sadist from playing the games, but are making him face the reasonable consequences of publicly advocating rape, torture and murder.Oct 13 19:25

msb_schestowitz: "I am just a tad worried that we might have a COntrol Risks/EPO mole among us in IRC for real-time surveillance"  Isn't this channel publicly accessible?  How can there be a mole?Oct 13 23:27
msb_If I may counter the doom-and-gloom, Devuan Linux is already being used in alpha state, including by a person here.  Once it's declared fully ready, concerns about "systemd, garrettux and debian 8" will go away.  And for people who want to buy a new desktop, I've found an excellent cheap fast AMD 8-core CPU FX-8350 and a superb mobo in which UEFI/secure-boot can easily be turned off.  I should soon receive info from AMD that will Oct 13 23:46
msb_prevent intrusions using the DASH system with a $50 SBC custom open-source router (if the FX-8350 even _has_ the DASH system).  So with the help of cubexyz and others, we'll have a secure Linux and a secure platform to run it on.  Life is good!Oct 13 23:46

MinceRit will be an ongoing battleOct 13 23:47
MinceRespecially once Linus loses control of Linux somehowOct 13 23:48
msb_If he does, the current state of the kernel can simply be saved and used into the future.  As to systemd, etc, there are always lousy alternatives, like windows.  But all that's needed is one _good_ alternative, like Devuan, and smart people can make the good choice, and others will follow.Oct 13 23:50
MinceRconsider how microsoft kept (and still keeps) trying to keep their competition off the marketOct 13 23:50
MinceRredcrap is already employing similar tacticsOct 13 23:50
msb_One can always find a dire negative possibility in anything and everything.  If one focusses on that, one will be miserable and frightened.  But if one focusses on the positive possibilities, and how to make them work, then life is a beautiful happy adventure.  It's up to you!Oct 13 23:53

cubexyzif someone asks me if they can run Linux on surface book, I don't have an answerOct 14 00:11
msb_Yes you do.  Tell them to buy something else instead.Oct 14 00:12
MinceRafaik winblows x86 tablets tend to have a broken 32bit uefi implementation that tends to make it an even greater pain in the ass to run linux on themOct 14 00:12
cubexyzI say buy MSI, Gigabyte or ChromebooksOct 14 00:13
cubexyzmaybe Tyan, still researching thatOct 14 00:13
msb_ASUS is good too.Oct 14 00:13
MinceRalso, the reason m$ didn't completely kill gnu/linux is that we the people opposed themOct 14 00:14
cubexyzI managed to get some good search done on Award BIOS last night, made some good progressOct 14 00:15
MinceRfor the same reason, we'll need to oppose redcrap as wellOct 14 00:15
cubexyzs/search/research/Oct 14 00:15
msb_Make sure that when you make a recommendation, you clearly and fully tell them how fast it runs.  Many people want a fast computer, and if you send those toward a slow one they will be very pissed and will hate Linux.Oct 14 00:16
cubexyzfor distros I'm going Q4OS, OpenBSD, AntiX, etcOct 14 00:16
cubexyzyou can get an i7 chromebook if you wantOct 14 00:17
msb_We need a non-systemd distro that has a large staff so it can keep up with the latest apps, which people want.Oct 14 00:17
cubexyzpersonally I think it's too expensive, but some folks got money so...Oct 14 00:17
msb_Many folks have limited money.Oct 14 00:17

cubexyzOperating SystemOct 14 00:24
cubexyzyou really need to know all three to get the most of out of one's computerOct 14 00:24
cubexyzI'm still learning stuff about my Tyan motherboard from 1998Oct 14 00:25
cubexyzI thought msb_ would like Q4OS since it comes with trinity reposOct 14 00:28
cubexyzseems a decent choiceOct 14 00:28
cubexyzbut not for very old hardware (14 years or more)Oct 14 00:28
cubexyzassuming you have a P4 or faster, it's OKOct 14 00:29
cubexyzon the BSD side, OpenBSD or PC-BSDOct 14 00:30
MinceRno netbsd?Oct 14 00:30
cubexyznot sure what the status is for netbsd to be honestOct 14 00:32
cubexyzThe advantage of NetBSD used to be that it ran on everythingOct 14 00:32
MinceRafaik its advantages also include virtualization, LKM support and no consorting with launchd and similar garbageOct 14 00:33
cubexyzit's not the leanest distro out there, but if you have 24 megs of ram or more it's OKOct 14 00:35
cubexyzOpenBSD focuses more on security, NetBSD focuses more on portabilityOct 14 00:37

cubexyzdo I recommend people running Linux and BSD, depending on the situation? DefinitelyOct 14 00:38
cubexyzfor non-x86 NetBSD is probably the best choiceOct 14 00:41
MinceRafaik linux still runs on more architectures than netbsdOct 14 00:42
MinceRbut if redcrap has their way, this will changeOct 14 00:42
cubexyzPC-BSD is strictly x86-64Oct 14 00:42
cubexyzdidn't redhat already drop a bunch of architectures?Oct 14 00:44
MinceRdunno, debian started dropping stuff left and right ever since they decided they'll force systemd on their usersOct 14 00:45

msb_I think that very few people are 1. aware of the murderous psychopathy of the US government and its motivation to kill Net communication  and 2. knowledgeable about methods it could do that like AMT and DASH.Oct 15 04:27
cubexyzactually there was a WNED show about the NSA and stuxnet on TV tonightOct 15 04:28
msb_Good, but people think things like stuxnet would never apply to them.Oct 15 04:28

cubexyzlots of scary potential Oct 15 04:39
*jono has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)Oct 15 04:42
msb_Very few computer-savvy people are capable of understanding that the US govt destr0yed Afgh. Iraq, Libya, half of Syria, installed a Nazi govt in Ukraine, and murdered 2,000,000 people, all since 2001.  Their eyes just glaze over and they change the subject.  It's like they're under a post-hypnotic suggestion.  They _can't_ think about it.Oct 15 04:45
msb_Anyhow that pdf on DASH is gold!  The xml schemas toward the end even seem to have a port number.  Maybe filtering out packets with that port# would do it!Oct 15 04:47
msb_Thanks!Oct 15 04:47
msb_It's gonna take me a while to study it though.  Just the fact that it's all about windows programs makes me want to puke.Oct 15 04:54

cubexyzthe other thing I didn't like was the region code thing... you could change it half a dozen times then it gets lockedOct 15 05:12
msb_I guess once bad hackers get in (and the govt are the worst) they can change anything changeable.Oct 15 05:13
msb_A typical scenario the US govt could do, following from their actions in Ukraine and Syria, is to blow off a nuke somewhere in the US and say that Russia did it, and then kill the Internet and all computers so that researchers and honest news sources couldn't talk about it.Oct 15 05:17

msb_Don't worry, it was just a coincidence, nothing to see here, move on.Oct 15 05:29

cubexyzok, he actually died on the operating table, I wasn't sure about that Oct 15 05:30

cubexyzit definitely sounded like a bork-up of the public trustOct 15 05:38
msb_"Public trust" is a total charade.  Americans are given just enough to enable them to survive (mostly), but without spare time or money to investigage and organize.  The Internet is changing that, but you can see all the malware and propaganda that are being used to prevent people from using it.Oct 15 05:42
msb_Talk about rt.com or globalresearch.ca, even here, and blammo!Oct 15 05:43
msb_The power of the Bernays method is enormous.  Not just "what you tell me three times is true", but what  you tell me 3,000 times is absolute fact that can never be questioned.Oct 15 05:45
msb_The monsters have defense in depth.Oct 15 05:45

cubexyzit wouldn't surprise me at all that IBM AIX runs better than Linux on Power CPUOct 16 00:14
cubexyzthey know everything about the POWER CPU, IBM made itOct 16 00:15
cubexyzjust like icc (intel's c compiler) can optimize code on Intel CPU's better than gccOct 16 00:15
cubexyznaturally intel knows more about their own CPUsOct 16 00:16
cubexyzjust like IBM mainframes are better than PCs, their IO capability is a lot betterOct 16 00:17
MinceRi've heard horror stories about how AIX does shared libraries, thoughOct 16 00:18
cubexyzAIX came out of the Unix Sys V and 4.3BSD, IBM combined ideas from bothOct 16 00:20
cubexyzbut it is closed source of courseOct 16 00:20
cubexyzthe big downside... IBM doesn't like giving out source code, unless it's for very old stuffOct 16 00:22

msb_cubexyz: "hardly anyone seems to be able to function on a computer without windows, it's sad"  That's not the problem.  People (except you) want _fast_ computers so they can watch highly-compressed videos, and do video editing and play action games.  These activities, and others like fast compiles, fast switching between virtual desktops, and good speed with interpreted languages like Ruby, REQUIRE A FAST COMPUTER, whether it's running Oct 11 01:01
msb_Linux or Windows.Oct 11 01:01
msb_cubexyz: People also want large displays, which are easier on the eyes, and more entertaining when watching movies, and more functional when editing text or source code because you can view two or three documents on the screen side by side at the same time.  Big screens with lots of pixels require a FAST COMPUTER to calculate all those pixels when watching a highly-compressed video or playing an action game.Oct 11 01:08
cubexyzmsb_, you're so fixated on watching videosOct 11 01:09
cubexyzI almost never bother doing thatOct 11 01:09

cubexyzI watched all the stuff you sent me (most of it at least) on my P3Oct 11 01:11
msb_cubexyz: "fixated" "bother" are propaganda words the way you're using them here.  The vast majority of people enjoy watching movies and other videos like ones about drug companies, political goings-on, etc.Oct 11 01:11
cubexyzyou are fixated :)Oct 11 01:12
cubexyzyou endless blather on about itOct 11 01:12

cubexyzI think people waste a lot of time watching youtube and TVOct 11 01:14
cubexyzwhat is that quote... "poor people have big TVs and rich peopel have big libraries"Oct 11 01:14
msb_Most people probably don't edit videos.  But _many_ play action computer games.  And _most_ watch movies and other videos, and they like big displays with lots of sharp detail.Oct 11 01:15

cubexyzif you had a kid, a teenager, and he/she played games all the time and watched a lot of TV and was failing in school what would you say then?Oct 11 01:20
cubexyzI don't think you would like thatOct 11 01:20
cubexyzpeople watching game shows promoting consumerism?Oct 11 01:21
cubexyzit's just sadOct 11 01:21
msb_That's a Red Herring propaganda ploy.  Many people play games, and watch certain things on TV that they specifically like, in moderation. Oct 11 01:22
cubexyzso no thanksOct 11 01:22
cubexyzI'd love to look at some statistics on thatOct 11 01:23
msb_So what are you trying to do?  Foist computers on people that will be incapable of giving them the things they enjoy, so they will be forced into your monastic existence?Oct 11 01:23
cubexyzI'd say people are watching more TV now than in the pastOct 11 01:23
cubexyzno, the customer tells me what they want :)Oct 11 01:24
cubexyzI merely make suggestionsOct 11 01:24
cubexyzI did warn people not to use windows 10 thoughOct 11 01:25
msb_Is that a "yes" answer to my question?  Are you trying to reduce people's computer capabilities in order to force them into your life-style?Oct 11 01:25
cubexyzI can't force people to do anything, I assure youOct 11 01:25
cubexyzI'm trying to get FOSS BIOS going actuallyOct 11 01:25
cubexyzI have nothing against new computers except for secure boot/intel boot guard, and things of that natureOct 11 01:26
msb_If people buy new fast computers because they want Windows 10, that's a good thing, because when they find out how bad 10 is, we can tell them about Linux, and they'll have a good fast machine to run it on,Oct 11 01:27
cubexyzand currently network television is bad bad badOct 11 01:27
cubexyzyou know it's bad :)Oct 11 01:27
cubexyzthey don't even like windows 10, that's what I've been hearing latelyOct 11 01:28
cubexyzwell, people usually call me when they're having a problemOct 11 01:28
cubexyzso I fix the problem... if they feel like hearing my philosophic observations on stuff then I'll tell them what I thinkOct 11 01:29
cubexyzotherwise it's problem fixed, paid, byeOct 11 01:29
cubexyzit's mostly in here that I ramble on about stuff because they tend to be more receptive Oct 11 01:30
msb_"Madame Secretary" is good.  "Marvel's Agents of SHIELD" is good.  "Castle" is good.  "Limitless" is good.  These are all current network TV series.Oct 11 01:30

cubexyzno not necessarily LinuxOct 11 01:32
cubexyzsometimes they buy Linux without realizing it, ironically enoughOct 11 01:33
cubexyzsometimes I talk about repairabilityOct 11 01:33
cubexyzI've fixed a few HDTVs :)Oct 11 01:33
cubexyzso you see, I'm not totally against TVOct 11 01:34

cubexyzbut if I watch ABC or CBS and see 8 or 9 commercials in a row, that's it, I'm doneOct 11 01:35
cubexyzI have a PVR (which I'm not completely happy with) so I can on the few occasions where I do watch TV, fast-forward through any commercialsOct 11 01:36
cubexyzbut it's like 35% to 40% commercials nowOct 11 01:36
cubexyzI can live without itOct 11 01:37
cubexyzI think I mentioned the Microsoft ads on Elementary alreadyOct 11 01:38
cubexyzmonastic life is surely an exaggeration :)Oct 11 01:38
cubexyzI'd rather read books on Gutenberg than watch TV Oct 11 01:39
cubexyza real monk wouldn't fix TVs I don't thinkOct 11 01:39
msb_The shows I watch are no more than about 30%, and I record them from cable-TV and then skip past the commercials.  I also remove those obnoxious channel logos from the lower right corner, using an mplayer feature and some scripts I wrote.Oct 11 01:42
cubexyzI once saw an ad take up a good 25% of the lower screen during the programOct 11 01:43
cubexyzit just gets worse and worse each yearOct 11 01:43
cubexyzit's better to wait for the DVD/Bluray and rip it to the computerOct 11 01:43
cubexyzBell and Rogers have a duopoly in Canada, and it's not a good thingOct 11 01:44
cubexyzI imagine the United States is similarOct 11 01:44
cubexyzthe PVR from Bell must be the most blacked-boxed device I've ever seenOct 11 01:46
cubexyzvideos are encrypted and non-transferableOct 11 01:47
msb_"Elementary" will be back next month -- great!  Did you refuse to watch it because it had Microshit ads?Oct 11 01:47
cubexyzno, I just complain about it :)Oct 11 01:47
cubexyzsometimes I read when on the exercise bike as I'm a bit worried I'm sitting too muchOct 11 01:48

msb_MinceR: "<MinceR> and religions only tell us lies".  You really should do some research before spouting such huge generalizations (Karl Marx didn't invent capitalism, either).   What I wrote about were "Goddess religions -- Earth-centered religions -- that told us how to take care of our world".  These gave people instructions for planting, weeding, harvesting, raising animals, etc., told as _stories_ by and about beings.  This format Oct 11 21:37
msb_made the information much more interesting and memorable to people than a bare list of instructions, because it appealed to their associative/metaphorical minds, not just their linear/literal minds.  Read up on Wicca.Oct 11 21:37

MinceRand even if you get the procedure right by rote, embedding it in religion makes it static and impossible to improveOct 11 22:26
MinceRthus you get rules that forbid eating pork, shellfish, etc.Oct 11 22:26
msb_MinceR: No, you are confusing JCI religion with Wicca/Witchcraft/Goddess religion, which you probably have never researched.  Goddess religions are joyful and flexible.  And BTW, if you put some milk and cookies under your bed for Putin, who lives there, he'll be happy and will stop plotting against you.Oct 11 22:32
MinceRno, i'm talking about the fundamental principles of religionOct 11 22:34
MinceRthe idea of possessing a "Truth" that is inaccessible to reason, unprovable and delivered via revelationOct 11 22:34
MinceRtypically marking the ones possessing it as the Chosen People and everyone else as evil and/or expendableOct 11 22:34
MinceRand since it's inaccessible to reason and unprovable, it's also typically staticOct 11 22:35

msb_systemd is an enormous godawful mess.  No wonder it has 36MB of source code.Oct 12 23:14
cubexyzmotherboard BIOS is getting very big alsoOct 12 23:15
cubexyzCedar Trail on it's own is 87 megs of filesOct 12 23:16
cubexyznot the sort of thing your going to be able to study easilyOct 12 23:16
cubexyzs/your/you're/Oct 12 23:16
cubexyzmy advice remains the same:Oct 12 23:17
cubexyzkeep one older computer with non-systemd and simpler BIOS (with source code if at all possible)Oct 12 23:17
msb_I once programmed for a company that made implantable defibrillators.  They had a test setup consisting of six PCs running some kind of object-oriented system to test the defibrillators (which were 6502 based).Oct 12 23:17
cubexyzdid you know that some of the PDP-11 folks consider PCs to be broken?Oct 12 23:19
msb_None of them could figure out what the object-oriented realtime system was actually doing.  I wrote a simple program to analyze the defibrillator output, which revealed that it was emitting spurious pulses that could cause fibrillation and kill the patient.  The company was not going to fix the defib, as they had already written up some 600 pages of test data for the FDA.  So they fired me the next week.Oct 12 23:20
cubexyzas in the design itself is badOct 12 23:20

msb_Anyhow, you changed the subject to BIOS, which is mostly doing one thing at a time if it's doing anything (in Linux).Oct 12 23:28
cubexyzWhat I'm saying is that the complexitiy of the PC is such that one person can't understand itOct 12 23:28
cubexyzI'm not saying the architecture is broken, this PDP-11 guy is saying thatOct 12 23:29
MinceRi think there are too many dirty little secrets in all modern computersOct 12 23:29

cubexyzif you aren't switching from text console to X11 mode a lot you might not see some of the problems I'm seeingOct 12 23:30
msb_What I'm talking about is this article:  http://blog.darknedgy.net/technology/2015/10/11/0/  which reveals systemd to be a super-complex object-oriented real-time abortion enormously bigger than the one I encountered at the defibrillator company, which hid the fact that their product was going to stop people's hearts and kill them.Oct 12 23:31
cubexyzif I ran a system with no sound card, and no X11 at all then it would be extremely stableOct 12 23:31

cubexyzPDP11 guy says:Oct 12 23:33
cubexyzAnyone still recall how the memory layout actually looks like on a PC? Or the ugly architecture that x86 is? Or the strange and silly IRQ and DMA setups you needed to do on cards on the ISA bus, or the dependecies on the BIOS, which in the old days had the geometry of every kind of disk in tables in the BIOS, fixed even... Or the various video cards with incompatible interfaces and peculiarities..Oct 12 23:33
msb_To make systemd into something that could brick Linux computers at government command, probably no code changes would even be needed, just some parameter changes.Oct 12 23:34
cubexyzyou can brick the BIOS for that matterOct 12 23:34
cubexyzno systemd needed :)Oct 12 23:34
msb_Not remotely, unless via DASH.Oct 12 23:35
cubexyzthere's lots of other problems too, but in the hardwareOct 12 23:35
cubexyzsure, you can brick the BIOS with DASHOct 12 23:35
cubexyzjust overwrite it with malicious codeOct 12 23:36
cubexyzuh, without DASH I meanOct 12 23:36
cubexyzit's not likely thoughOct 12 23:36
MinceRCIH bricked the BIOS without DASH :>Oct 12 23:36
cubexyzrightOct 12 23:36
cubexyzthat's kind of why we have all this secure boot stuff nowOct 12 23:37
cubexyzit's good and bad at the same timeOct 12 23:37
cubexyzDASH is good and bad as wellOct 12 23:38
cubexyzwith DASH you could remotely fix problemsOct 12 23:38
cubexyzand cause them in the first placeOct 12 23:38
cubexyzif your BIOS has unused space, the bad code can hide in itOct 12 23:39
cubexyzI've already mentioned the BMP vulerabilityOct 12 23:40
msb_cubexyz: PCs evolved with innovation on top of innovation.  That's why the architecture is so "ugly" now.  But it works great!  And what happened to DEC, with its beautifully designed PDP-11 series?  They were too expensive, and DEC was sold off to Compaq, HP and Intel.Oct 12 23:40
cubexyzmsb_, right, DEC messed up big timeOct 12 23:41
msb_CIH is a windows virus, right?  Windows systems are hopelessly insecure.Oct 12 23:43
cubexyzCIH could KO the BIOS itself, not sure if that could happen with Linux Oct 12 23:44
cubexyzif the BIOS gets overwritten, all bets are offOct 12 23:44
cubexyzpersonally I can't think of PCs as 'great'Oct 12 23:46
cubexyzif you repair laptops often enough... you'll see what I meanOct 12 23:47
cubexyzdamaged GDUs, and other kinds of heat damageOct 12 23:47
cubexyzGPU? GPUOct 12 23:47
MinceRthere are no PDP-11 laptops though, afaikOct 12 23:48
msb_cubexyz: PCs are what we've got.  Staying with AMD for the moment, the FX-8350 is an excellent CPU and the ASUS 990FX is an excellent mobo in which secure-boot can easily be turned off.  So if the DASH vulnerability can be fixed, or doesn't even exist with the 8350, that combination provides a superb high-speed computer suitable for everyone.Oct 12 23:48
msb_High-speed _and_ secure.Oct 12 23:49
cubexyzno, no PDP-11 laptops, microPDP in a small case is the best you can do Oct 12 23:49
cubexyzexcept you have tons of binary blobs, and no clue what they doOct 12 23:49
cubexyzthat's the problem with modern PCsOct 12 23:49
msb_Well, we now have the C and assembly source code to modern AMI BIOS, so you can see what the blobs made from that will do.  I predict it's nothing malicious.Oct 12 23:52

msb_That's your cable or dsl node identifying all the leaf nodes, including yours.Oct 13 01:54

MinceRno, i'm being hit by personal attacksOct 13 02:06
MinceRsomething msb_ used to complain aboutOct 13 02:06
msb_cubexyz: I think when your system sees an ARP packet with its ip-address, it responds with a packet containing its MAC address.  So the upstream node knows which customer is on which ip-address.Oct 13 02:08
msb_But that's just from memory.Oct 13 02:08

MinceR165029 < msb_> The problem is, that humans are programmable by speech and video, and they can be programmed into psychopath behaviors like rape, torture, and murder.  Oct 13 18:54
MinceR               Some speech has consequences -- yelling "fire" in a crowded theater  -- so freedom of speech requires some limitations.Oct 13 18:54
MinceRi know you will ignore this, and i will not quote it again.Oct 13 18:54
msb_I went on to say that game creators and game reviewers should self-limit their creation and approval of games that victimize women.  I did not in any way "come out in support of global internet censorship in the service of political correctness", as you lied that I did.Oct 13 18:57

msb_Lie #3:  "bullying those who play video games because they play video games is also not acceptable"  Nobody does this.  Many disapprove of playing video games that encourage the  rape, torture, and murder of women.  That is a _subset_ of video games, not all of them.  Oct 13 19:12

MinceRapparently they also say that women should attack menOct 13 19:14
msb_Lie #5 "ah, so we should ask msb_ which video games we're allowed to play"  I never said that people should not be allowed to play video games that victimize women.  I said they should be criticized and shamed if they do.Oct 13 19:16
MinceRthey should be bullied, fired from their jobs and jailed, but not disallowed. got it.Oct 13 19:16
msb_Lie #6 "they should be bullied, fired from their jobs and jailed, but not disallowed. got it."  If a person tells others that he enjoys simulated rape, torture and murder of women, then people should try to discourage him (non-violently), as that may save women's lives.  If an employee publicly admits such enjoyment, his employer may reasonably fire him to protect the women in the workplace.  Only government can jail people.  Oct 13 19:25
msb_Discouragement and firing are not "disallowing" the sadist from playing the games, but are making him face the reasonable consequences of publicly advocating rape, torture and murder.Oct 13 19:25

msb_schestowitz: "I am just a tad worried that we might have a COntrol Risks/EPO mole among us in IRC for real-time surveillance"  Isn't this channel publicly accessible?  How can there be a mole?Oct 13 23:27
msb_If I may counter the doom-and-gloom, Devuan Linux is already being used in alpha state, including by a person here.  Once it's declared fully ready, concerns about "systemd, garrettux and debian 8" will go away.  And for people who want to buy a new desktop, I've found an excellent cheap fast AMD 8-core CPU FX-8350 and a superb mobo in which UEFI/secure-boot can easily be turned off.  I should soon receive info from AMD that will Oct 13 23:46
msb_prevent intrusions using the DASH system with a $50 SBC custom open-source router (if the FX-8350 even _has_ the DASH system).  So with the help of cubexyz and others, we'll have a secure Linux and a secure platform to run it on.  Life is good!Oct 13 23:46
MinceRthey won't go awayOct 13 23:47
MinceRit will be an ongoing battleOct 13 23:47
MinceRespecially once Linus loses control of Linux somehowOct 13 23:48
msb_If he does, the current state of the kernel can simply be saved and used into the future.  As to systemd, etc, there are always lousy alternatives, like windows.  But all that's needed is one _good_ alternative, like Devuan, and smart people can make the good choice, and others will follow.Oct 13 23:50
MinceRconsider how microsoft kept (and still keeps) trying to keep their competition off the marketOct 13 23:50
MinceRredcrap is already employing similar tacticsOct 13 23:50
msb_One can always find a dire negative possibility in anything and everything.  If one focusses on that, one will be miserable and frightened.  But if one focusses on the positive possibilities, and how to make them work, then life is a beautiful happy adventure.  It's up to you!Oct 13 23:53

cubexyzthe official word from Linus on BIOS:Oct 14 23:03
cubexyz- the BIOS is written mostly in assembly - the BIOS is tested exclusively with DOS and Windows - most BIOS writers appear to simply be incompetent, or just not care.Oct 14 23:03
cubexyzso yes, Linux tries very hard to avoid BIOS callsOct 14 23:03
cubexyzbut Linux does not avoid BIOS calls all togetherOct 14 23:04
cubexyzsome are still usedOct 14 23:04
cubexyzhowever, Linux also does a few things wrong which the BIOS does correctlyOct 14 23:05
cubexyzthe real trick is knowing which one is right, it differs from case to caseOct 14 23:05

cubexyzis there a way to remove that facebook/twitter/print thing?Oct 15 04:27
msb_I think that very few people are 1. aware of the murderous psychopathy of the US government and its motivation to kill Net communication  and 2. knowledgeable about methods it could do that like AMT and DASH.Oct 15 04:27
cubexyzactually there was a WNED show about the NSA and stuxnet on TV tonightOct 15 04:27
msb_Good, but people think things like stuxnet would never apply to them.Oct 15 04:28
cubexyzbut mostly it was presented in way that made NSA look like the good guysOct 15 04:28
cubexyzeven had a Snowden interview about 'cyberwar'Oct 15 04:29
msb_Yeah.  Israel has 400 nukes and has been committing genocide for 50 years, but preventing Iran from having one nuke is portrayed as good.Oct 15 04:29
cubexyzah, found a way to hide itOct 15 04:29
msb_What are you talking about?Oct 15 04:30
cubexyzthere was a vertical strip on the left side of that community amd page you postedOct 15 04:30
*jono (~jono@ubuntu/member/jono) has joined #techrightsOct 15 04:30
cubexyzmaybe your browser is blocking it automaticallyOct 15 04:30
msb_No.  How did you do it?Oct 15 04:31
msb_It blocks some of the text.Oct 15 04:31
cubexyzat the bottom there's a tiny greyish triangleOct 15 04:32
cubexyzclick it and it hides the stripOct 15 04:32
cubexyzthere's also another triangle higher up that brings it backOct 15 04:32
msb_I don't see that.  At the bottom is a cartoon of a printer.Oct 15 04:34
cubexyzthe bottom of the strip :)Oct 15 04:35
cubexyzyou may need to hover the mouse just under the print icon to see itOct 15 04:35

msb_I loathe social media!Oct 15 04:36
cubexyzI don't like facebook, but all my old friends are on itOct 15 04:37
cubexyznote that DASH can view a BIOS screen remotelyOct 15 04:38
cubexyzlots of scary potential Oct 15 04:39
*jono has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)Oct 15 04:42
msb_Very few computer-savvy people are capable of understanding that the US govt destr0yed Afgh. Iraq, Libya, half of Syria, installed a Nazi govt in Ukraine, and murdered 2,000,000 people, all since 2001.  Their eyes just glaze over and they change the subject.  It's like they're under a post-hypnotic suggestion.  They _can't_ think about it.Oct 15 04:45
msb_Anyhow that pdf on DASH is gold!  The xml schemas toward the end even seem to have a port number.  Maybe filtering out packets with that port# would do it!Oct 15 04:47
msb_Thanks!Oct 15 04:47
msb_It's gonna take me a while to study it though.  Just the fact that it's all about windows programs makes me want to puke.Oct 15 04:54
cubexyzLinus himself has remarked that BIOS development is windows-centric to a large degreeOct 15 04:55
cubexyzof course, older BIOSes were DOS-centricOct 15 04:55

cubexyzbad hackers could attack the firmware of your CDROMOct 15 05:11
cubexyzI think Dragos was talking about thatOct 15 05:11
cubexyzthe other thing I didn't like was the region code thing... you could change it half a dozen times then it gets lockedOct 15 05:12
msb_I guess once bad hackers get in (and the govt are the worst) they can change anything changeable.Oct 15 05:13
msb_A typical scenario the US govt could do, following from their actions in Ukraine and Syria, is to blow off a nuke somewhere in the US and say that Russia did it, and then kill the Internet and all computers so that researchers and honest news sources couldn't talk about it.Oct 15 05:17
cubexyzransomware :)Oct 15 05:17
cubexyzI even know people who have paid the ransomOct 15 05:17

msb_The govt controls the top-level domain servers.  Remember, they killed that guy who tried to stop it.Oct 15 05:18
msb_Then they could kill every computer they could via AMT and DASH.  And of course the microshit botnet.Oct 15 05:19
msb_WhtOct 15 05:20
msb_Whatever was left they could just take over with a few soldiers.Oct 15 05:20

cubexyzthere was something about complications from heart surgeryOct 15 05:27
msb_Yeah, fascist political complications.Oct 15 05:29
cubexyzdoesn't seem to be much info about itOct 15 05:29
msb_Don't worry, it was just a coincidence, nothing to see here, move on.Oct 15 05:29
msb_Somebody just walked past him, sprayed an aerosol in his face, and kept walking.  That's all it would take.Oct 15 05:30
cubexyzok, he actually died on the operating table, I wasn't sure about that Oct 15 05:30
cubexyzdid you know that Postel was opposed by NSI?Oct 15 05:31
msb_The poison would have given him the heart problem to start with.Oct 15 05:31
cubexyzand the NSI were well connected with washington defense contractors?Oct 15 05:31

cubexyzit definitely sounded like a bork-up of the public trustOct 15 05:38
msb_"Public trust" is a total charade.  Americans are given just enough to enable them to survive (mostly), but without spare time or money to investigage and organize.  The Internet is changing that, but you can see all the malware and propaganda that are being used to prevent people from using it.Oct 15 05:42
msb_Talk about rt.com or globalresearch.ca, even here, and blammo!Oct 15 05:43
msb_The power of the Bernays method is enormous.  Not just "what you tell me three times is true", but what  you tell me 3,000 times is absolute fact that can never be questioned.Oct 15 05:45
msb_The monsters have defense in depth.Oct 15 05:45
