schestowitz | > keep the following for you: I know many (many!) of the names in the list. You are right they used to be examiners. But they have been promoted not for the sake of excellence but for their ability to be i) a nuisance to their colleagues and ii) brown noses (eg. being high producers and disregarding quality or being involved in "unclear" affairs). Even before the Battistelli era EPO wasn't a paradise | Jun 23 04:00 |
schestowitz | Hi, | Jun 23 04:00 |
schestowitz | 1) I am aware (I started writing about EPO before Battistelli) | Jun 23 04:00 |
schestowitz | 2) I will keep this private (will not quote) | Jun 23 04:00 |
schestowitz | 3) They would still be better off as allies of CSC/SUEPO rather than of upper management, IMHO. | Jun 23 04:00 |

schestowitz | > but i also think about the constitutional threat of drones. | Jun 23 19:14 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:14 |
schestowitz | > there are lots of safeguards on military drones, to keep the commander in chief (the pres) from taking over the army. but if we did have a semi-autonomous robot army that could be rigged somehow to take orders from the commander in chief, that would be a crisis on par with a coup detat. | Jun 23 19:14 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:14 |
schestowitz | > the point is, that the real (human) armed forces all take an oath to the defend the constitution-- NOT the commander in chief. so while he gives the orders, he cannot (legally) give unconstitutional ones. he cant say for example to the american army: "kill all the civilians." their oath is the constitution, so they are REQUIRED to disobey their top commander in such a situation. (if this gives little comfort, that is a separate issue. but | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | it should give a little, if not enough.) | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > robots cant do that-- they have no oath to the constitution. a drone is not yet capable of meaningfully/practically taking such an oath. so we have a potential constitutional crisis in the making-- and a coup in the making IF (hopefully long odds) that the pres ever figures out how to subjugate our robotic army. | Jun 23 19:15 |

schestowitz | > stallman would be better off training an army of clones capable of critical thinking, than an army of parrots which i often feel he has. i know its not entirely fair to the free software movement to say that they are all clones and parrots. im not trying to say its 100%. but there are so many people doing that, i feel the best move would be to discourage it. | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > unfortunately, the fsf does more to encourage than discourage that sort of thing. as GUIDELINES or tongue in cheek, the "words to avoid" page is useful. in practice, it is more of a rule than a guideline. i have always called it the "gnuspeak dictionary." | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > but i am talking about an army of parrots, not the words to avoid page-- which i offer just as an example of unquestioning obedience in practice-- allowing the fsf to choose words for them. | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > i would change that page (if the license allowed, which it doesnt-- stupid noderivs) to offer problematic words, a GUIDELINE (with a warning to those who would turn it into a rule) to avoid them, and encourage people to come up with their OWN alternatives, rather than adopt the ones the fsf chooses. | Jun 23 19:15 |

schestowitz | > they could do that, but they dont. | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > but when i talk about obedience i mean it goes beyond this. i mean that people do not think openly about solutions to these threats. WE can encourage them to think openly about solutions, but the fsf acts (quite unintentionally im sure) as a gatekeeper and oracle-- WE know the problems, WE know the solutions. | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > | Jun 23 19:15 |
schestowitz | > i think it should be HERE are the problems, HELP US think of solutions. thats not how the fsf works, or it is too limited in that regard (and not how they talk either.) | Jun 23 19:15 |

schestowitz | > i think it would be better for stallman to retire from his position while he is still "young" and "powerful" enough to be certain his successor is suited to the task. if the fsf fails without him, he should try to steer the movement AWAY from the fsf. | Jun 23 19:15 |

It was therefore not surprising to see Kroah-Hartman vouch for Levin. Kroah-Hartman pointed out that Levin has full write permissions to the stable kernel trees, and applauded Microsoft's application to sign up." | Jun 29 07:17 |

schestowitz | [21:37] <schestowitz> hi | Jun 29 07:17 |
schestowitz | [21:37] <schestowitz> yes, it's just a link | Jun 29 07:17 |
schestowitz | [21:37] <schestowitz> I guess to El Reg | Jun 29 07:17 |

schestowitz | [21:38] <__martin__> greetings, do you dr. roy think it's meant to be a warm-hearted effort or eee smear tactic? | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:38] <schestowitz> I said so already | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] <schestowitz> latest daily links in techrights | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] *** MinceR gives __martin__ permission to talk. | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] <schestowitz> I added a comment | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] <MinceR> why do people still expect anything microsoft ever does to be benign? | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] <MinceR> i guess words speak louder than actions after all | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] <XRevan86> MinceR: It's big. Inate trust in the authority. | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] <MinceR> who made those criminals an authority? | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:39] <XRevan86> * innate | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <schestowitz> anyway, see the comments in The Register | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <__martin__> cite: Just more infiltration, entryism. They try to sell Windows and Azure. See comments on this article, e.g.: "You're assuming #Microsoft has good intentions. Instead, they've decided it's easier to suck the marrow from the bones if they can sneak inside the host under a flag of truce, like many other common parasites." | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <schestowitz> I saw some yesterday | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <__martin__> thx I see now (= | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <XRevan86> MinceR: Money, money, money; always sunny, in the rich man's world. | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <schestowitz> people aren't stupid | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <schestowitz> but companies like Red Hat and Canonical are controlled by Microsoft cash now | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <schestowitz> Zemlin PAC also | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:40] <schestowitz> Azure money and all | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:41] <__martin__> anyways, got one more question do you folks think RPi4's Raspbian or that Broadcom chip design is backdoored by design? | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:42] <__martin__> cuz I definitely think it must be at least GCHQ "approved" | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:42] <__martin__> (ordered one alrdy tho) | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:43] <__martin__> [as I gotta replace 10yo laptop with 1st gen Intel Core CPU & 9 yo desktop with Athlon II X3 which should be theoretically immune to the Meltdown shiets // even tho I ran to direct Pentagon agents within Valve's Dota 2 moba | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:43] <MinceR> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:43] <schestowitz> gchq has many ways to get into things | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:43] <schestowitz> but it doesn't need to access everything | Jun 29 07:18 |
schestowitz | [21:44] <schestowitz> in this case it can harm a british firm | Jun 29 07:18 |
