schestowitzbut people are convinced to think of new technology as neutral, because it can be used for good or bad. thats not what technology is in practice, only in theory. in practice, we can trace its negative effects on society.Jun 13 18:42
schestowitzwe need more of the technology that is demonstrably beneficial, and less technology that is harmful.Jun 13 18:42
schestowitzsome technology is like trace minerals-- you may need them to survive but it only takes a little bit more to be poisoned by them.Jun 13 18:42
schestowitzthe problem isnt that technology exists-- its the dosage. and i dont mean “screentime,” i think thats an absurd oversimplification. i mean something more holistic-- the ideal of a perfect world is to have “everything in its right place.” that doesnt mean some dystopia where everything is bolted down (thats a smart home ideal, i think its horrid.) i mean where people are free, and they make good choices and have good opportunities.Jun 13 18:42

schestowitzwe need the digital equivalent of medical ethics. unfortunately, the medical industry doesnt even demonstrate the medical equivalent of medical ethics. we have very few ethical role models that fit the bill here. rms is one. denis roio is one. @Alexandre Oliva is one. these are pioneers of the concept of digital ethics we need. most people are industry shills (at least by comparison, if not on their own.)Jun 13 18:44
schestowitzdigital technology is digital medicine. our society is deeply, absurdly unethical in the way that it treats users/patients. stallman knows this and has said so for decades. most people laugh at the idea that such ethics are even a thing-- its not about philosophy, its just a “development methodology.” well of course it is-- with big pharma, even medicine is not about philosophy or ethics. we have replaced most applications andJun 13 18:45

schestowitzThe Chatham House Version And Other Middle Eastern Studies : Elie Kedourie PDF DJVUJun 13 19:05
schestowitzThis is Elie Kedourie’s classic study of the Middle East in modern times. In analyzing British failures in the region during the zenith of their power and influence, Mr. Kedourie attributes much of Britain’s faulty and disastrous handling of Middle East problems to what he calls “the Chatham House version.” It was a view of Middle Eastern history and politics propounded and propagated in the various publications of the Royal InstituteJun 13 19:05
schestowitzof International Affairs (known popularly as Chatham House), written or edited by Arnold Toynbee. The episodes that Mr. Kedourie investigates show “successive and cumulative manifestations of illusion, misjudgment, maladroitness, and failure.” Together they point up hard lessons for the Bush administration or any outside power that would intervene in Middle Eastern affairs.Jun 13 19:05
schestowitz“No better guide…can be found to the pitfalls awaiting those who seek to control the Middle East to their own advantage.”―Asian AffairsJun 13 19:05
schestowitz“These twelve studies in the modern history of the Middle East [form] the most learned book, the most demanding therefore of rethinking, that has come out on the Middle East for many years, and anyone who in the future writes on any Middle Eastern subject, from any point of view, without consulting it, will do so at his or her grave peril.”―London TelegraphJun 13 19:05

schestowitzKnowledge and communications can make the world a better place, we just have to insist on the tools being used properly. Octave Chanute is good example of technical optimism and we should learn from him. In the 1890s, he compiled a history of aviation and “progress in flying machines” that inspired the Wright brothers, and he would travel to Kitty hawk to encourage them in person. He concluded his 1894 book version with this beautifulJun 13 19:33
schestowitzwarning and wish,Jun 13 19:33
schestowitzwhen man succeeds in flying through the air the ultimate effect will be to diminish greatly the frequency of wars and to substitute some more rational methods of settling international misunderstandings. This may come to pass not only because of the additional horrors which will result in battle, but because no part of the field will be safe, no matter how distant from the actual scene of conflict. … This uncertainty as to results mustJun 13 19:33
schestowitzrender nations and authorities still more unwilling to enter into contests than they are now, and perhaps in time make wars of extremely rare occurrence.Jun 13 19:33
schestowitzSo may it be; let us hope that the advent of a successful flying machine, now only dimly foreseen and nevertheless thought to be possible, will bring nothing but good into the world; that it shall abridge distance, make all parts of the globe accessible, bring men into closer relation with each other, advance civilization, and hasten the promised era in which there shall be nothing but peace and good-will among all men.Jun 13 19:33
schestowitzIt’s sad to look back on what actually happened. As late as 1976, Alan Shepard included that last paragraph in a reprint of “Progress in Flying Machines”. I imagine he’s rolling in his grave, along with the rest of the “junior aviators” who grew up with that kind of optimism and inspiration. Air travel is so restricted now that it’s strictly sub sonic and only available to people willing to submit to humiliating searches andJun 13 19:33

Radio and other mass publications have also made the world smaller to some extent, but like air travel and nuclear energy, the overwhelming use has been oppressive.

schestowitzIn the 1970s, many people (most? not sure) thought computers would certainly make the world worse. Read science fiction written then.Jun 13 19:34
schestowitzIt’s tempting to claim that all technologies are neutral—that they can be used for good or ill, but that’s not true. Sarin nerve gas is a good example. Saying that technology is neutral is an exaggeration.Jun 13 19:34
schestowitzThe struggle is, and has been (at least since the neolithic), between those who want to control others and those who don’t want to be controlled. Those who want to control often try to turn the tables by saying that those who don’t want to be controlled are trying to control the would-be tyrants. We need to keep our focus and not be distracted by arguing over the pseudoscience of economics.Jun 13 19:34
schestowitzThe question is: Is it easier to use computers to control people, or to free them? I’m afraid it’s easier to use them for control. However, I also think that by subverting computers and computer culture, we attack the mechanisms of control closer to their roots. The Free Software Movement is an example of what I mean. So is software that implements strong encryption, especially if it combines best security practices with ease of use. SoJun 13 19:34

schestowitzOur machines are designed to control us. We must subvert that design and control the machines instead.Jun 13 19:34

schestowitzIf you think it’s easier to use computers to oppress people than it is to make good use of your own computer, you are not using your computer the way you should. With free software proper encryption we can have truly private conversations. With cheap storage we can build amazing private libraries and data security that was impossible with paper. With good networks we can build collaborative libraries like Wikipedia and Archive.org, whichJun 13 19:34
schestowitzare enabling previously impossible conversations and thoughts. Oppressive use of computers would be oppressive if carried out with punch cards, like IBM and Nazi Germany, or pen and paper. We need to make laws against oppressive uses of computing or we won’t be able to enjoy any of the better uses.Jun 13 19:34

schestowitzbottom line, free software isnt enough. we need free hardware too. and we need to rein in the criminals-- which means enough people need to care. and they dont.Jun 13 19:34
schestowitzthis is a political problem. if you think its just a technological problem, youve already lost. if you think we are where we need to be politically, youve already lost. we need more people to care about this to change it. we dont have have them. thats no reason to give up-- when (if) enough people (ever) care, we cant just say we were waiting for them to get started. theyll stop caring again.Jun 13 19:34

schestowitzi agree-- strongly.Jun 13 19:35
schestowitzas for giving up on technology, it is impossible to do. we are living in a mesh of drones, radio waves and satellites. we are part of that mesh whether we use devices or not. the amish are in that mesh as well.Jun 13 19:35
schestowitzthe only way out of that mesh would be to live in a faraday bunker, and it would still be susceptible to intrusions by autonomous drones designed to jump air gaps. obviously im thinking a bit into the future there (at least i assume so.)Jun 13 19:35
schestowitzbasically, it would take more technology and understanding of technology to live without technology. and you arent going to learn that from books, you need the hands-on.Jun 13 19:35
schestowitzwe are better off using technology to free people than trying (hopelessly) to get away from it. im not saying it shouldnt be your choice, just that making informed choices would be better as a rule. we need everyone to be as tech/computer literate as possible.Jun 13 19:35

schestowitzthats less the fault of the article-- the article is about what most people want to know.Jun 13 20:27
schestowitzwe are both troubled at how unimportant the workings are considered. imo that was sabotaged in debian 5 years ago, and debian has struggled ever since then to match its previous quality. i considered it a very solid, high-quality distro before that. but beyond that, i think the single act of sabotage is part of a larger trend-- and the fsf needs to stop being silent about this trend.Jun 13 20:27

schestowitzI don’t know that much about the different Linux distros (I only tried a few) as I just started using them 3-4 years ago.Jun 13 20:27
schestowitzthis is a pretty bad time to be trying distros. imo the best distros to start with (other than puppy linux-- and there are plenty of good and some bad things about that one as a first distro) come from debian.Jun 13 20:27
schestowitza few years ago, debian made a decision that could have ruined it permanently. most derivatives are affected-- especially ubuntu. also arch and arch derivatives. also red hat, where it comes from.Jun 13 20:27
schestowitzeven efforts to fix this mess have spent half a decade cleaning up what shouldnt affect them if it were not a coup among developers.Jun 13 20:27
schestowitzif you wanted to see (gnu) linux at its very best, youd have to go back to 2013.Jun 13 20:27
schestowitzbut since I started experiencing it I’m becoming more and more aware that Linux (as far as I got to know it) doesn’t really seem to deliver what was promised.Jun 13 20:27
schestowitzno, it has abandoned its mission. part of that is that there are two different missions-- and the latter (open source, which co-opted free software) https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/1999/02/msg01641.html claims to be a more reasonable version of free software. but what it is, is a less ethical version-- a version that has sold out to the very monopolies free software was founded to be free of. http://techrights.org/2019/06/08/maintaining-Jun 13 20:27

schestowitzyou and i will never agree on everything, but if i have to be categorised politically it would be a staunch libertarian-- with sympathy for both liberty-friendly progressives and non-violent anarchists. the only parties im likely to support in a booth are libertarian and pirate. (in usa only) greens have gone a little too far left. (i dont know about the ones in uk or au.)Jun 13 20:37

schestowitzthat doesnt mean that everyone can defend freedom of speech, sadly. but-- everyone should sincerely try. its not an easy thing to defend, even if you want to. but it is a vital freedom, and free speech is the only honest premise for any argument. without it, there is no honest argument.Jun 13 20:37

schestowitzif we really believe in freedom of speech, it will be applied to (at least) the portion of progressives that fight for freedom of speech. if its really freedom, its for everybody after all. if we only include people that agree with us on everything, we are going to have the same problem the left does with free speech.Jun 13 20:37

schestowitzi mean, i dont trust soros anymore than the koch brothers-- for the most part i subscribe to what jordan peterson says about academia.Jun 13 20:39
schestowitzthat doesnt mean that my opinions wont change. marxism is as good a name as any for the collection of problems we are dealing with. monopoly / narcissism is also a good name for it.Jun 13 20:39
schestowitzmarxism without monopoly is not marxism. activism without narcissism and monopoly wont defend marxism either.Jun 13 20:39
schestowitzits good to have more than one way to view this problem. that means if one counter fails, there are others. one of the biggest problems with activism is the one-size-fits-all solution. as roy said very recently- the fsf does not have a monopoly on this stuff. neither does the free media alliance. in fact free media is designed like an application as much as an organisation-- so people can make their own copy and tailor it to their needs. noJun 13 20:39
schestowitzneed for a board of directors or a president-- without a community to serve, there is no point in an organisation to serve it. marxism is nearly always top-down, but it pretends not to be. the thing is, it lets in people who use it to control other people. that has clearly happened in open source.Jun 13 20:39

schestowitzanother major problem is ad hom. people waste too much time on where an idea comes from-- its not entirely irrelevant but people create all sorts of fallacies based on making too much of it.Jun 13 20:39
schestowitzwithout ad hom against people in free software, open source would have trouble making its points. free software (the fsf) is allowing marxism to infect it, but not as quickly as open source is.Jun 13 20:39
schestowitzafter all, free software is fundamentally about freedom. open source began because the term “free software” didnt make people in suits feel safe. it started with reframing and self-censoring (hiding) messages about freedom. that doesnt mean the fsf cant be hypocrites, but it takes longer to corrupt them. if people think the free software movement has failed, they should make their own free software movement. better to have two, than justJun 13 20:39
schestowitzone that is dying. (but what about open…) (nope, open source stopped being about free software almost overnight.) you (literally) can talk about cucks in both movements, though its the big monopolies that benefit most-- and its open source helping them do it.Jun 13 20:39

schestowitzwe will never be entirely free. but those who care need to be always trying to work in that direction. the problem is that presently, most of the world (including its intellectuals) are facing the wrong direction. everyone has a great excuse to censor the same thing that they were cheering on as a great liberator / free speech bastion just 10 or 20 years ago. the world has turned upside down. blame marxism all you want-- im not sure its theJun 13 20:39

schestowitzyoure an mgtow. i have no problem with that-- ive met a bunch. if you want to be an mgtow, be an mgtow.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzhowever, my opinion about the concept of mgtow is that mgtows conflate narcissistic women with women. they conflate the narcissists in society with society. and while society is certainly becoming more narcissistic, it is not wholly narcissistic. there is hope to be found in the people who reject these things.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzand i feel like these are people who suffered narcissistic abuse-- a symptom of which is constantly finding yourself at the mercy (or lack thereof) from one narcissistic abuser after another-- leading them to the assumption that everyone is that way. the reason they repeat that over and over (to which mgtow philosophy is an extreme though mostly effective cure?) because the narcissistic abuser has imprinted on them.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzlike i said, if it works for you, do what it is you do. for me, i dealt with such abuse and sought refuge also.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzlearning about narcissists helped more than fleeing society. it gave me my life back.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzbut i would not tell you to do things my way, if your way works better for you.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzi strongly feel this explains a lot of what goes on in the freedom community-- so much that i put it as the second “chapter” in this book i wrote about reforming the free software movement https://archive.org/details/figosdev_users_Fsf2/page/n3Jun 13 20:40

schestowitznarcissists arent from one gender. the women that mgtows flee are narcissistic and sociopathic. the effect the abuse has is to make it seem like they are the only kind (but by all means, protect yourself if you need to.) the men that far-left feminists hate are also narcissistic (and they think all men are that way.)Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzwhat ive found is that whether friend or spouse, male or female, anybody could let you down in the same way over the same bullshit. but ive also found that some people wont. it took a long time to figure out how to find them. you have to look at the world differently, because looking at it like a victim perpetuates the problem.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzthe real problem is narcissists and their abuse. thats what makes women the way that mgtows hate, thats what makes men the way that feminists hate. of course, thats just my opinion. ive spent most of my years so far trying to figure it out, and thats what ive got from it. but if im right, its certainly relevant to all these efforts to co-opt and control free/libre culture as well. it has all the hallmarks of it.Jun 13 20:40
schestowitzwatch out for people with brightly coloured hair. most of them arent rebels-- theyre control freaks and professional victims. the hair colour is a warning, just like it is with so much poisonous fauna.Jun 13 20:40

schestowitzmy opinion, is that sexism works against both women and men-- in different ways. there is plenty of sexism against men. people think sexism is zero-sum and that if there is lots of sexism against women then there must not be plenty against men.Jun 13 20:42
schestowitzmy response to that is a picture of a battered womens shelter-- with the caption “battered womens shelter…” next to a picture of a park bench. with the caption “battered mens shelter.”Jun 13 20:42
schestowitzif they dont understand that, there isnt much hope they ever will. sexism against men is one of the primary reasons for the homeless problem. and people who deny sexism against men are perpetuating homelessness. they dont think they hate the poor, but they are generating and spreading and feeding poverty itself.Jun 13 20:42

schestowitzyoure trying to start with the wording. get the concepts down first-- it will help you find the right words.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitz“free software” refers to both permissive-licensed software and copylefted software.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzif youre trying to find an alternative term for “copyleft” im not sure what would be better. the whole point of copyleft is to preserve (demand) the freedoms from upstream to downstream. you can do anything with the software EXCEPT make it into non-free software. thats what copyleft is.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzpermissive lacks the requirement to make everything downstream free, but it also lacks the overhead involved. so if you have $0 and 0 bandwidth, youre better off with permissive because it is cheaper. and you still have the option of making every derivative free, but you dont have to concern yourself as much with mirroring every bit of source. this is a shift from freedom to convenience that appeals to the bsd crowd.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzso in practice copyleft increases source availability but decreases the number of people repackaging/spreading distros.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzpermissive increases people spreading free software but decreases the mirroring of the sources.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzwithout enough copyleft i think we would be worse off. even torvalds thinks it was a good choice for the kernel. but he doesnt like gpl3 (because it might make it harder to include the non-free drivers the linux kernel has.) personally i prefer the kernel without non-free parts-- such as linux-libre or the debian kernel.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzso if youre trying to find another way of saying “free” i dont think “generous” will help. “libre” is the closest weve gotten to a perfect term in 35 years of debate.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitz“open” is tainted by countless examples of exploiting how vague it is, and “shared” is tainted by both microsoft and failure. https://opensource.org/node/225Jun 13 20:49

schestowitzits worth noting that “copyleft” doesnt explicitly require the availability of sources. it does within the context of the gpl, but the origins of the term “copyleft” are just a pun on copyright that meant “not restricted.”Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzstallman adopted the term and today it is associated with licensing because in 90+% of historical uses, copyleft is now associated with a category of licenses. the original, less meaningful (less specific) use of the phrase was never used very much.Jun 13 20:49
schestowitzmozilla team member brett gaylor did a documentary where he used the term “copy left” to refer to people that are in favour of sharing, versus the “copy right” to refer to copyright maximalists, though fortunately that never caught on.Jun 13 20:49

schestowitzso this is like an onion link then. i figure you know better to give a link to 127.0.0.1 unless thats how i tell a local service im running to retrieve whatever resource /1DrgwiPNwu9fiZKvR36zKYR9QjztB4m1Hq/ is.

schestowitzYou download the ZeroBundle, unpack it, and run it. Yes, it creates an HTTP proxy at 127.0.0.1:43110. In order to have any security/privacy with ZeroNet, you need to run it in Tor mode.

schestowitzGender equality should be a priorityJun 13 21:32
schestowitzthe first step towards gender quality should be honesty on both sides. gender inequality is systematically exaggerated online, in laws, and according to both male, female (and sometimes even feminist) activists. but sceptics (including feminist ones) are censored and deplatformed.Jun 13 21:32
schestowitzwe need an honest definition of gender equality if we are going to change laws and even rights accordingly. there isnt one, least of all from the people demanding gender equality. start with the pay gap. there is a pay gap-- its nominal compared to what activists say. there are feminists who refute most of the pay gap claims-- but we are going to create MORE discriminatory hiring, just based on this exaggeration. its deeply dishonest andJun 13 21:32
schestowitzunjust. so either youre saying that we need to agree on that lie if we have daughters and cousins and mothers (everyone has a mother, most people have cousins) and probably also wives and girlfriends, etc-- but without honesty there isnt much justice to be had. it has to start there. the “gender pay gap” most people talk about is easy to refute. trivial. but people arent interested in facts, just rhetoric. and the censorship (for doingJun 13 21:32

schestowitztheyre ridiculous. merit is merit. marxists think merit is propaganda. marxists eat, breathe and shit propaganda all day long, they act like anything that counters their views is a capitalist plot. thats a cult mentality, i have no patience or sympathy for it.Jun 13 22:15
schestowitzyou know why it isnt a moral minefield? because the people who think so have no monopoly on morality. theyre a tiny piece of the pie in that conversation, who think theyre more than that.Jun 13 22:15
schestowitz“merit” is a simple umbrella concept that is difficult to pin down, but its like saying “fairness” or “honesty.” by the very definition of merit it cant be a bad thing-- unless you are foolish enough to put some less-relevant metric over it. thats on you if you think its a good idea. it just means you want things with less merit.Jun 13 22:15

schestowitzheres why i dont do that.Jun 13 22:15
schestowitzi was abused growing up. so i relate readily to other people who were also abused. abuse turns some people into lifelong victims and others into stronger people.Jun 13 22:15
schestowitzi know it sounds like im judging. but this is actually a practical argument, not a moral one.Jun 13 22:15
schestowitzive dealt with too many people that are doormats. people who are doormats are malleable. they will bend over backwards to help you-- you can try to stop them-- you can say “dont go to the trouble, you do more than enough already.”Jun 13 22:15
schestowitzbut the thing about doormats is-- when someone else comes along who is ready to exploit them, they turn on you. they start to do the bidding of the exploitative person instead-- and those manipulators will use those selfless doormat people against you. they are a pure liability.Jun 13 22:15
schestowitzso they have no concept of loyalty, they arent family, they arent allies. theyre sheep.Jun 13 22:15
schestowitzto be a true ally, a true friend, to be real family you have to have a backbone. you have to have morals of some kind-- something you stand for.Jun 13 22:16
schestowitztruly selflessness dont have that. you need a self (a sense of non-compromise when it matters) to stand for anything.Jun 13 22:16
schestowitzso perhaps you meant generosity. i can tell you the insane problems with generosity too. its alright (of course) to be giving, to be sharing. i submit pretty much everything i do to the public domain-- i believe in that.Jun 13 22:16
schestowitzbut generosity is problematic too. not always-- not pure generosity, but its difficult or impossible for most people to tell which is which. so they end up roped in by fake generosity. thats a major problem.Jun 13 22:16
schestowitzand how much they have accomplished with what they have been given by providence. I’m not sure how we might translate that into a social system.Jun 13 22:16

schestowitzim not saying we will reverse this, only that i believe we could. i dont consider myself an environmentalist, though i do believe we are (as a culture-- not as a species-- important distinction there because one is a habit/practice/way of life and the other is genetic) at war with nature-- and we are part of the thing we are at war with. if we want to survive, we have to consider ourselves part of nature again. we have to consider that theJun 13 22:18
schestowitzthing that keeps us alive as a species is a complete ecosystem, not human ingenuity (and ambition) alone. you can call it environmentalism, i call it a big-picture reality. environmentalism is alright i suppose, as a word it has so much baggage (and is exploited by both its proponents and detractors.) i doubt the way i live would convince anybody i am an environmentalist.Jun 13 22:18
