XRevan86schestowitz: I've seen worse RMS interviews.Apr 16 12:32
schestowitzdoing a story on FSF atmApr 16 12:34
schestowitzThis angle of the story has generally required me to do a lot of editing after asking around without divulging some identities/names. Let me think how to handle this...Apr 16 12:34
schestowitz> Right. Truth needs to be told. I wonder if it's in the history.Apr 16 12:43
schestowitz> Anyway it was rejected in minutes and original reverted. Apr 16 12:43
schestowitz> I have that happen to me on censorpedia, pretty much anytime I try to post stuff.Apr 16 12:43
schestowitz> Apr 16 12:43
schestowitz> That was another scandal - the editors were taking payment to watch certain corp pages years ago.Apr 16 12:43
schestowitz> It's all sickening.Apr 16 12:43
schestowitzRMS has just sent me about 10 emails. He's reading everything.Apr 16 12:43
schestowitz>> He's a good source.Apr 16 12:43
schestowitz"I, myself," explained the reader, "am curious about what I had heard about the Code of Conduct enforcement at LibrePlanet and how it seemed RMS was pressured into abiding by a CoC. That, in itself, is very disturbing to me.  I don't know what exactly is going on over there, but it looks like somehow, they are pressuring him to abide by a CoC. I'll be looking forward to see your results - or get to the bottom of it."Apr 16 12:44
schestowitz"Apr 16 12:45
schestowitzInteresting about Censorpedia. Apr 16 12:45
schestowitzWhen I was at FSF, one of my tasks - my main tasks, was to let people know about GFDL. Then, Jimmy and Wikipedia came along and people were aware, working on free information and it seemed good. Apr 16 12:45
schestowitzInternet Archive also started removing content too. Just a couple of days ago, Jason Scott posted how the French Govt was requesting internet archive to remove content - it's in his twitter. Apr 16 12:45
schestowitzOne was Gutenberg. When I was in Mexico, Adam Holt of Internet in a Box was telling me some countries don't want Gutenberg. You know me, I was upset at that.Apr 16 12:45
schestowitzGreg Newby told me there are a few ways to export Gutenberg - and I'm meeting people tomorrow to revive the library box project for my local group, because I hate this censorship... Apr 16 12:45

oiaohmThere is such thing as too heat conductive who would think it.Apr 19 01:08
XRevan86oiaohm: The question is not whether they could pull it offApr 19 01:12
XRevan86but whether they should'veApr 19 01:12
oiaohmFact we have seen a video card with a heat sink surface temp of the silicon and due to its high conductivity of heat cause third degree burns before being forbiden from sale in standard cases.  If the Star Fleet regulation is crap it could happen that way.Apr 19 01:15
oiaohmThe other is with all the automated assisting the star trek ships seam to have with their bio computers and other things to perform the task they could be treating it the same way we treat lithium ion batteries in phones and the like.Apr 19 01:16
XRevan86oiaohm: Considering how routine these accidents are for Starfleet, the regulation must be that it's forbidden not to have explosive qualities.Apr 19 01:17
oiaohmWhen you get the star trek time like console explosions you are talking years apart in real time.Apr 19 01:17
XRevan86oiaohm: The closest thing to a Li-ion battery in there is the Warp coreApr 19 01:17

XRevan86oiaohm: TNG doesn't have thoseApr 19 01:19
oiaohmYes data storage and computer processing of possible not the most stable kind.Apr 19 01:19
oiaohmRemember those were meant to be upgrades over the prior.Apr 19 01:19
oiaohmSo how scary bad was the prior.Apr 19 01:20
oiaohmBy the exploding consoles I would say quite bad.Apr 19 01:20
XRevan86ST:V has "bio-neural gel packs", but explosive consoles were all over original ST:TNG and ST:DS9 tooApr 19 01:20
oiaohmThe star trek cannon does not mention exactly what the prior computers were.Apr 19 01:21
oiaohmJust the bio-neural gel was improvement.Apr 19 01:21
XRevan86oiaohm: That bio-neutral stuff doesn't seem all that great from the sciency side.Apr 19 01:22
XRevan86so likely not quantum computersApr 19 01:23
oiaohmAlso you have to consider that in star trek you have insanely advanced medical so up to second degree burns is minor quick treatable thing.Apr 19 01:23
XRevan86oiaohm: But consoles are still deadlyApr 19 01:24
XRevan86even if medical wonders reduce the death toll considerablyApr 19 01:25
oiaohmSo fire suppressing systems that would be forbid could be allowed in star trek.     Like using explosives.Apr 19 01:25
XRevan86Meanwhile, consoles are supposed to just be consoles, a Raspberry Pie could do the job they do.Apr 19 01:25
XRevan86with a TNT taped onApr 19 01:26
oiaohmYou have to remember we have shipped ammonium nitrate in car airbags and only recalled that after enough people were killed.Apr 19 01:26
XRevan86s/a //Apr 19 01:27
oiaohmSo humans have a history of miss using explosives.Apr 19 01:27
oiaohmOr using the wrong types.Apr 19 01:27
oiaohmBasically the console exploding in star trek is just normal human stupidity take to is expected form.   Improved medical resulting in lower health and safety.   Add in some miss use of explosive materials you have star trek. Apr 19 01:28
XRevan86Star Trek: the Federation is terrible, but somehow the best.Apr 19 01:29
oiaohmDo note the bridge in star trek in a lot of cases does not have enough seats or seat belts.   You see them thrown around a bridge far more often than consoles exploding.Apr 19 01:29
oiaohmSo Star Trek work place health and safety is about as good as a bad third world country.Apr 19 01:30
oiaohmand massively depending on the medical to keep the fatalities down.Apr 19 01:31
XRevan86Star Trek: the Federation forbids genetic engineering of human brains, yet where are super-Romulans, super-Cardassians?Apr 19 01:31
XRevan86Or are humans the only species that can be vastly genetically improved? Or have they all forbidded it despite the obvious military advantages?Apr 19 01:32
oiaohmThat is covered in particular episode in early Star Trek.   There were genetic engineered humans they were as insane as the Romulans, Carassians and the Vulkans.Apr 19 01:32
XRevan86* forbiddenApr 19 01:33
oiaohmAfter all the mental illness issue caused by being more intelligent resulting in superiority complexes star trek forbid it.  Apr 19 01:33
oiaohmin the federation.Apr 19 01:34
oiaohmAnd most races in the star trek universe have run into the same problem.Apr 19 01:34
XRevan86oiaohm: Turns out, mad scientists are a real issue.Apr 19 01:34
oiaohmXRevan86: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Klingon_augment_virus yep.Apr 19 01:36
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-memory-alpha.fandom.com | Klingon augment virus | Memory Alpha | FANDOM powered by WikiaApr 19 01:36
oiaohmXRevan86: there are multi cases where different groups attempt to improve there race.   Either they almost kill them selfs out or end up with insane people to deal with.Apr 19 01:37
XRevan86oiaohm: So that's why…Apr 19 01:37
XRevan86oiaohm: I've been wondering about the looks of KlingonsApr 19 01:37
oiaohmThat did alter the IQ profile of the Klingons as well .Apr 19 01:39
oiaohmThere are many examples in star trek of genetic engineered other races.   Most cases it like the Klingon or worse.   Some of the human ones are horrible like improving human immune system to be proactive and it results in modify all normal humans near them to age rapidly and die.Apr 19 01:40
oiaohmstar trek is very anti DNA modification unless you want to risk exterminating your race by the fall out from either the bio side effects or that the enhanced are insane and attempt to kill you. Apr 19 01:42
oiaohmIf you go throw the cannon carefully you will find notes from different Romulans/vulkans that they tried it as well it created the divide between those two races.    Carassians I have no notes on.Apr 19 01:43
oiaohmSo genetic engineering failing is very common in the star trek universe.Apr 19 01:44
XRevan86> Gene Roddenberry himself reportedly believed any "explanation" was unnecessary; the makeup seen in the films and the later series would have been too expensive during the 1960s. Roddenberry felt it was best to simply imagine that Klingons always had ridges (although this preference was officially contradicted by canon when the change was noted by the DS9 crew in "Trials and Tribble-ations").Apr 19 01:45
*XRevan86 did exactly that, thought that the new make-up is retroactive, but then I saw "Trials and Tribble-ations".Apr 19 01:45
oiaohmcanon does kind of answer why you don't see super that often.   Really a Vulkan is a super Romulan.Apr 19 01:47
oiaohmOne of the rare cases it kind of worked.Apr 19 01:48
oiaohmI would not call a Vulkan 100 percent success.Apr 19 01:48
XRevan86> Really a Vulkan is a super Romulan.Apr 19 01:48
XRevan86o_OApr 19 01:48
XRevan86I understood it has them having cultural differences.Apr 19 01:49
oiaohmThey are the same race.  One enhanced and one rejected enchancing.Apr 19 01:49
oiaohmLosing emotions for enhancement is something the romulans would not tolerate.Apr 19 01:50
XRevan86oiaohm: By the way the series paints them both it's the Romulans who are the foolish ones.Apr 19 01:50
XRevan86oiaohm: And also that Vulcans don't not have emotions, but rather control them.Apr 19 01:51
oiaohmVulcans cannot freely express emotions or risk being a danger to everyone.   Due to being so OP.Apr 19 01:52
XRevan86Sarek in TNG had a condition that made him lose control.Apr 19 01:52
oiaohmYes the Romulans are painted as foolish because they are lower IQ and also physically weaker.Apr 19 01:52
oiaohmAgain that is because Vulkan enhancement is not perfect.Apr 19 01:53
oiaohmAnd comes with horrible side effects.Apr 19 01:53
oiaohmExamples of enhancement in startrek don't paint perfectly outcomes.Apr 19 01:54
*XRevan86 wonders if he's unaware, because TNG and spin-offs tried to brush it under the rug.Apr 19 01:54
oiaohmThere are very few eposides that cover how Vulkan and romulans are related.Apr 19 01:55
oiaohmThat they other thing about startrek there seams to be a culture thing not to talk about enhancement as well due to it being forbid.Apr 19 01:55
oiaohmUnless it absolutely required.Apr 19 01:56
oiaohmIf it was covered more people would be aware that enhancement is a common thing to be attempt by all races in startrek that lead to different levels of fail.Apr 19 01:57
oiaohmSometimes completely nuking their race out of existence and leaving behind illness that keeps on showing up.Apr 19 01:57
XRevan86> The Vulcans eventually became Earth's "big brothers" in a way, advising Earth officials on how to proceed into the galaxy.Apr 19 02:02
XRevan86Oh, like Minbari…Apr 19 02:02
oiaohmYes and of course that also explains why romulans fear the federationApr 19 02:04
oiaohmbeing seen as lapdogs to the Vulcans so have to be the romulans enemy.Apr 19 02:05
XRevan86oiaohm: In TNG and DS9 it amused me that Vulcans are barely even a thingApr 19 02:05
XRevan86but Romulans are important, as allies or adversariesApr 19 02:06
oiaohmExactly if you are the puppet master as the vulcans are why would you put your own people in harms way.Apr 19 02:06
oiaohmRemember spock was half human half vulkan that why you saw him.   Most of the time vulkans really stay as in the  bureaucracy even in the first series as it the logical  place to be don't risk your hide when you can risk someone elses .Apr 19 02:08
XRevan86oiaohm: There were… a few Vulcans here and thereApr 19 02:09
oiaohmIf you look closely most of them are some form of government bureaucracy Apr 19 02:10
oiaohmSo puppet masters keeping in the backgroundApr 19 02:10
XRevan86oiaohm: And ST:V got a Vulcan in a spot lightApr 19 02:10
XRevan86On a starshipApr 19 02:10
XRevan86It also showed that Vulcans come in all shapes and sizes American society can provide %).Apr 19 02:11
oiaohmHis back story is he heed starship time to get a particular government position.Apr 19 02:11
oiaohmSo vulcans not like the front lines.Apr 19 02:12
oiaohmRomulans, Humans, Klingon races will be on the front lines. Apr 19 02:12

oiaohmJem'Hadar is another super race .Apr 19 02:16
XRevan86oiaohm: Do they? In DS9 all they do is stick their necks out.Apr 19 02:17
oiaohmIf you listen carefully those sticking their neck out in DS9 will loss their citizenship if they don't.Apr 19 02:18

oiaohmCarassians are techically another of the slave races of the Dominion.Apr 19 02:23
XRevan86oiaohm: Cardassians were a temporary member of the DominionApr 19 02:23

oiaohmschestowitz: part way though the stackleak debate linus lets fly at Popov for doing something that had been decided at a confence not to be done any more that was not put into the documentation.Apr 19 07:17
oiaohmschestowitz: basically there was no way Popov could have known he should not have coded it that way.Apr 19 07:17
oiaohmSo Linus bad language was not helping the technical arguement in the stackleak case.  Apr 19 07:18
oiaohmThe other thing is once a backdoor is added gets known to the public it normally made disappear.Apr 19 07:19

oiaohmFairly active group and when grsecuity pulled up sticks and they were not going to have the stuff to secure they own server they started on working on mainlining the best features of grsecurity even where it required some fairly deep rewrites.Apr 19 07:36
oiaohmschestowitz: stackleak sounds like grsecurity because it based off grsecurity work just reworked to its mainlineable.Apr 19 07:37

DaemonFC[m]MinceR: From a Facebook post:Apr 19 23:04
DaemonFC[m]"Even with MP3, you aren't guaranteed compatibility with anything no matter how you encode them because name a standards violation and there's a stereo, software player, or car audio system out there that violates it.Apr 19 23:04
DaemonFC[m]With car systems, some Fords up to at least 2008 cannot decode a VBR MP3 if any of the frames are under 128 kbps. I had to help someone get around this bug in their Ford car by specifying that LAME could not create any frames lower than 128 kbps. The encoder will attempt to make the best of this situation by shifting bit reservoir usage to compensate, but it isn't ideal."Apr 19 23:04
DaemonFC[m]"With software players, Microsoft released a broken MP3 decoder with Windows XP that interpreted the standard wrong, rendering some valid files unplayable, and LAME had to implement a workaround that is in there to this day.Apr 19 23:05
DaemonFC[m]With stereo systems, some can't even handle VBR at all even though it's mandatory in Layer 3, but these are mostly older models."Apr 19 23:05
DaemonFC[m]"The reason LAME has so many command line arguments is an outgrowth of the fact that the MP3 spec is murky enough even before people make decoders that are just flat out wrong.... :)"Apr 19 23:07
DaemonFC[m]"Going way back into the 90s for a moment, when Winamp was a popular music player, they implemented a decoder called Nitrane that introduced unstable pure tones that didn't even exist in the file, and ended up fixing the problem when they just licensed the decoder from FhG."Apr 19 23:09
MinceRhttps://i.imgur.com/vv1IeMF.jpgApr 19 23:26
DaemonFC[m]There was a commercial advertising a song lyrics app that said "If you think Elton John is saying 'Hold me closer, Tony Danza." you needed their app.Apr 19 23:29
DaemonFC[m]That's fair enough. But if you think Eric Clapton is asking to be your four legged man, you need FLAC, and perhaps an earwax removal kit.Apr 19 23:29

MinceRin which one?Apr 21 14:54
XRevan86MinceR: In the article.Apr 21 14:54
MinceRthat it seems like the physical world of matter we appear to experience is more of an abstraction of a reality that is made of informationApr 21 14:55
XRevan86We scan reality and then act on the information gathered.Apr 21 14:56
XRevan86even though we receive only information and not the direct realness of reality…Apr 21 14:57
XRevan86realness is more important, because information is merely a reflection of it, which we have an obligation to maintain as accurateApr 21 14:57
XRevan86Because information of a tiger won't eat ya, a real tiger wouldApr 21 14:58
MinceRit's not information _of_ a tiger, it's information that happens to _be_ a tigerApr 21 15:00

MinceRthat physical matter may well be an illusionApr 21 15:01

oiaohmThe horrible would be if the universe is a complete paradox.       As in the Universe exists because something exists to observe it.   And we exist because something observed.   So material can be broken down insane number of times because we are looking?Apr 21 15:13

schestowitzMisconceptions:Apr 21 18:15
schestowitzFree software is copyleft, open source is permissive (non-copyleft) (This is somewhat true indirectly, as a matter of philosophy, as I'll get to later)Apr 21 18:15
schestowitzFree software means it doesn't cost moneyApr 21 18:15
schestowitzOpen source just means you can look at the source codeApr 21 18:15
schestowitzLike some other replies have said, free software and open source mean almost the same thing in practice, but the difference is in philosophy. Essentially, the free software movement started in 1983, with the GNU project, whose goal was to create an operating system composed only of free software, that the user could inspect, modify, and share at will. The open source movement came later, in 1998, and started at a "strategy session" Apr 21 18:15
schestowitzdiscussing how to adapt the free software development approach in a "business-friendly" way. In essence, "open source" is the result of software companies coopting free software to serve their own business ends.Apr 21 18:15
schestowitzAs to the practical effects of this philosophical difference: Proponents of "open source" champion it as a more effective means of developing "almost everything," as Tom Preston-Werner (founder of GitHub) puts it. "Almost everything" means anything that does not "represent core business value." In practice, this means frameworks, libraries, middleware, and server infrastructure. This is why JavaScript frameworks and build tools are a dime a Apr 21 18:16
schestowitzdozen yet the "Linux" desktop continues to struggle. Ever wonder how Android is supposedly more "open sourcey" than Windows and yet feels much more locked down? Or how "Linux" can thrive on "the cloud" while our privacy and digital freedoms become ever more curtailed? This is why.Apr 21 18:16
schestowitzAnd, when these people suddenly decide that these things can "represent core business value," they invent ridiculous things like "Commons Clause" to try to re-proprietarize it while claiming to be vaguely "open-" something or other.Apr 21 18:16
schestowitzEdit: From that same blog, how NewPipe represents the best of free software and how it compares to the proprietary app. NewPipe is pro-user and the proprietary app is anti-user. The proprietary app no doubt contains many lines of "open source" library and framework code, but that means nothing to the user.Apr 21 18:16
schestowitz"Apr 21 18:16
schestowitz"Open source frees the developers to use all the code they want, however they want, in creating a product for themselves and end-users. Freedom on the creation end for that small fraction of the world engaged in software development. Free Software is end-user control over their own private-property: their computer hardware. You needn't be a software developer to experience the benefits of liberation, since you are entitled to full Apr 21 18:16

schestowitzThe term “free software” is prone to misinterpretation: an unintended meaning, “software you can get for zero price,” fits the term just as well as the intended meaning, “software which gives the user certain freedoms.” We address this problem by publishing the definition of free software, and by saying “Think of ‘free speech,’ not ‘free beer.’” Apr 21 18:20

schestowitzIt is a distinction worth making if you care about technicalities (and many people in this field do). Most free (libre) software is open source, and a large part of open source software is free or almost free.Apr 21 18:20
schestowitzAs Stallman himself puts it (IIRC) it's more a matter of intentions. Those who advocate for open source see it mainly as a tool to make better software: if more people can see the code, it's more likely to find bugs or security issues, and people will trust it more. Free software advocates see the advanage of open source, but for them it's more a philosophical matter, freedom for freedom's sake: if you run code on your machine, you must be Apr 21 18:20
schestowitzable to know what that code does, and you must be able to learn from it and do whatever you want with it.Apr 21 18:20
schestowitzIn most of the cases there is no practical difference between open source and free software, so that kind of software is often referred as FOSS (Free and Open Source Software).

schestowitzA lot of Linux stuff is free AND open source, but for instance Solaris is open source without being free, if I remember wellApr 21 18:21
schestowitz"Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzFree also doesn't imply do whatever you want with it. It just means that you don't need to pay to use it, but there might be other license restrictions.Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzEdit: Seems like I was wrong on how the terminology is used here.Apr 21 18:21

schestowitzNo, you're describing proprietary "freeware," which is a totally different thing (and can in fact be -- and often is -- closed source).Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz"Free Software" necessarily requires that the user have the freedom to run it, modify it and run the modified version, distribute it to others with or without modification, and grant those others the same freedom.Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz"Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzthis is the “free as in beer” interpretation and misses the gnu point about software freedom as defined by the four freedoms.Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzwith truly free software you most definitely can do whatever you want with it.Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz"Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz"Yes it does. When we say "Free" we mean "Free as in Freedom." "Gratis" is the word we use for items given away at no direct financial cost.'Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz"I had the "free of rights" things in my head."Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz"Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzAmazingly no one has linked you the four freedoms. When we refer to Free Software, what we mean is software that conforms to the four freedoms. The guy you replied to was wrong, and you were (more) right.Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzA program is free software if the program's users have the four essential freedoms:Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzThe freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzThe freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzThe freedom to redistribute copies so you can help others (freedom 2).Apr 21 18:21
schestowitzThe freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz""Free of rights" is a remarkably awkward and confusing way to put it. That phrase sounds more like it means "rights-free" or "without rights." Free[-as-in-freedom] Software is quite the opposite of "free of rights!"''Apr 21 18:21
schestowitz"Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzThis is a poor translation of the term used in my country, sorry for the confusion. "Libre de droits" (literally "Free of rights") means something without copyright or anything.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzSorry for the mistake, I thought the same expression was valid in EnglishApr 21 18:22

schestowitzIt's confusing in English too. If you just say "Free Software" to people who aren't familiar with the term, they think you mean they don't have to pay for it. So many folks have taken to saying "gratis" to mean free of charge, and "libre" to mean respecting user freedom. I suspect that we're probably not fully using the word "libre" correctly, but it's the term that seems to have caught on.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitz"Apr 21 18:22
schestowitz"Libre de droits" (literally "Free of rights") means something without copyright or anything.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzThe English term for that is "Public Domain."Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzIncidentally, while all public domain software is Free Software, the terms aren't interchangeable because not all Free Software is public domain.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzIn fact, very little Free Software is public domain. This is because (a) there's no such thing as software that's so old the copyright has expired, and (b) it's surprisingly difficult to actually disclaim copyright. Instead, using the MIT license or some similar permissive license is the next best thing.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzHowever, some Free Software licenses, such as the GPL, are materially different from public domain -- or, I would say, go beyond public domain -- by being "copyleft". Public domain software affords maximum freedom to whoever obtains it initially, but that includes the dubious freedom to make it proprietary and thus deprive downstream users of their freedoms. Copyleft Free Software enforces fairness by requiring that all downstream users get Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzthe same freedoms that the initial user has, which some (selfish) people construe as reducing the freedom of that initial user. Copyleft definitely can't be public domain, though, because it leverages copyright against itself to make those fairness requirements legally enforceable.Apr 21 18:22

schestowitzYou're welcome.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzBy the way, now that I think about it, I'm deeply troubled by that "libre de droits" terminology. It's almost Orwellian: it's highly misleading to shorten "free of copyright" to "free of rights" because copyright isn't an actual right at all, but instead is a restriction on the rights of others.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzAt least in the USA, copyright is nothing more than a temporary monopoly privilege granted by the government for the purpose of encouraging the creation of works. Essentially, all works inherently belong to the Public Domain, but society lets the creators borrow control of them for a while as an incentive for those creators motivated by profit.Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzAdmittedly, the French basis of copyright is "droit d'auteur," but fuck that. That whole concept is dangerously wrong because (a) it gives authors too much power to censor public discourse, and (b) if copyright really were an actual property right, it would clearly be unjust for it ever to expire because that would be tantamount to confiscation. But perpetual copyright would cause horrific consequences -- namely, destroying the free exchange Apr 21 18:22
schestowitzof ideas -- and is therefore untenable, which means "droit d'auteur" is untenable too.Apr 21 18:22
