| schestowitz-TR | anything we can pick up on it can come handy | Apr 10 10:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | come in handy | Apr 10 10:47 |
| Techrights-sec | yes | Apr 10 10:47 |
| Techrights-sec | yet at the same time most mainstream media site are actively pushing for | Apr 10 10:48 |

| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.i-programmer.info | Gary Kildall - CP/M, Digital Research and GEM | Apr 10 10:51 | |
| Techrights-sec | There's been lots of revisionism regarding Kildall. His book went unpublished, | Apr 10 10:54 |
| Techrights-sec | in particular several chapters which spilled the dirt on Bill. | Apr 10 10:54 |
| Techrights-sec | It's nasty that Bill ever gets mentioned in Kildall's biographies. | Apr 10 10:54 |
| *DaemonFC (~daemonfc@prp59ds7kav8s.irc) has joined #boycottnovell | Apr 10 10:55 | |
| schestowitz-TR | Gary did not know a lot of rich people like Bill's mom | Apr 10 10:55 |
| Techrights-sec | The link has a line of unadulterated bullshit: "Bill Gates was an enthusiast, a garage entrepreneur, a stylish programmer" | Apr 10 10:56 |
| Techrights-sec | Bill was a dumpsterdiver, which is where he got most of his source code. | Apr 10 10:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | y u so jealous !! | Apr 10 10:57 |
| Techrights-sec | yep, they turn to ad hominem every time | Apr 10 11:02 |
| Techrights-sec | like 20 years ago when open standards were about to take over fully, M$ | Apr 10 11:02 |
| Techrights-sec | minions started the whisper campaign that it was all just "schadenfreud" and | Apr 10 11:02 |
| Techrights-sec | ignored the benefits which open standars had already provide to-date. | Apr 10 11:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | tux machines has a soft spot or underbelly for emojis | Apr 10 11:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | this means that for nws picks that are going to go into "linux" related stuff | Apr 10 11:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | it helps to delete the symbols | Apr 10 11:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | it does not kill the site's DB | Apr 10 11:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | drupal just cuts everything after such symbols | Apr 10 11:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | hence I've had to run extra checks at my side | Apr 10 11:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | just saying | Apr 10 11:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | ^^ number (1) | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | (2) I am now going to experiment with the news file on patents, 250+ of them | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | (3) iirc, firefox still has a CLI option for screenshots of a given page | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | I used to know all the CLI options, but rianne and I use librewold and most of | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | the time it is falkon for me | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | 4) for the time being daily links contain <!-- url >> so they don't validate | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | buit I checked gemini and gemtext is OK with it for now | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | going to figure out an approach for grouping "IP' news and how to quickly do rebuttals | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | with screenshots, not links | Apr 10 12:02 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Apr 10 12:02 |
| Techrights-sec | the files validate here | Apr 10 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | yes, maybe different spec checked against | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | for now I can alter my version of the file to not add the <!-- ... | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | and at your end no tags added | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | the only downside is, managing two versions over git can get confusing | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | having said that, maybe this is a chance to change the name of the file | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | which is something you wanted to do over a month ago | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | or, as another option, branch that file out to another external function | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | sometimes I use the fuctions for remote checksums and two paces of upload | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | to quickly run uploads | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | or to squeeze is another rsync when the first pass is over and nefore the fiinal one starts | Apr 10 12:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | for large videos this can shave off an hour | Apr 10 12:06 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Apr 10 12:38 |
| Techrights-sec | One of the things that the LF has done to the world is to make license violations the norm and accepted. Probably most embedded | Apr 10 12:38 |
| Techrights-sec | systems are GPL-licensed. | Apr 10 12:38 |
| Techrights-sec | ALmost none of them actually comply with the license requirements. | Apr 10 12:38 |
| schestowitz-TR | just look who SPONSORS LF | Apr 10 12:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | and see the IRS files | Apr 10 12:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | they make it clear, black and "allow" | Apr 10 12:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | if you pay, you get a seat | Apr 10 12:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | check the latest board changes | Apr 10 12:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | some "embedded" companies bought a seat | Apr 10 12:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | even patent trolls | Apr 10 12:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | about 4 years ago bruce perens wrote publicly that LF had become a gpl infringers' club | Apr 10 12:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | or something to that effect | Apr 10 12:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | techrights probably has a mailing list link several times (around that year) | Apr 10 12:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | but that was probably before we properly took on LF as an issue | Apr 10 12:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | and before FOSSForce spread its butt cheeks | Apr 10 12:46 |
| Techrights-sec | Yes that would describe it, a GPL infringers' club | Apr 10 12:46 |

| schestowitz-TR | with the word "Linux" in it | Apr 10 12:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | managing the outsoucing of code to Microsoft (GitHub) | Apr 10 12:47 |
| Techrights-sec | the LF is about representing the interests of its corporate members within | Apr 10 12:48 |
| Techrights-sec | the project and pushing their agendas. | Apr 10 12:48 |
| Techrights-sec | and turning a blind eye to their damage and violations | Apr 10 12:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | it is a lot worse for two reasons | Apr 10 12:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | 1) they also buy control over Torvalds -- something that Steve Jobs was unable to buy | Apr 10 12:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | 2) they are using the trademark of Torvalds, "Linux", to buy legitimacy | Apr 10 12:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | for totally unrelated things, some of which actively undermine Linux | Apr 10 12:49 |
| schestowitz-TR | Linus IS AWARE, but his balls are in someone else's palm, so he's either in | Apr 10 12:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | denial about it or worries what spreaking out would entail (again) | Apr 10 12:50 |
| Techrights-sec | More like a vise than a palm. | Apr 10 12:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | it cannot hurt to send him an email, I assume you have his address,and send him | Apr 10 12:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | a | Apr 10 12:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | short reminder of what's happening | Apr 10 12:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | even if he does not reply, if short and to the point he will read it | Apr 10 12:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | and it'll come back to his miind every now and then | Apr 10 12:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | I don't think LF pre-filters his mail, at least not yet | Apr 10 12:52 |
| Techrights-sec | I'pm not sure. I've never been introduced and have never contributed any code | Apr 10 12:52 |
| Techrights-sec | to his project. | Apr 10 12:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | that does not matter | Apr 10 12:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | Sam Varghese never wrote any code, but Debian devs and Linus do reply to him | Apr 10 12:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | even as recently as this past week | Apr 10 12:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | I iamagine, based on what he told Sam, that deep inside Linus agrees with Techrighhts | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | on a lot of things | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | not all things | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | but some | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | but he can never say that | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'm OK with it | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | Dealing with issues like corporate troll | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | does not buy you corporate friends | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | FSF has some people who mfoolishly think that | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | being more "professional" (e.g. visiting Microsoft) | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | would open door to them | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | and make them more acceptable | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's a mirage | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | 2 weeks after RMS went to Microsoft he got 'canceled' | Apr 10 12:57 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Apr 10 12:57 |
| Techrights-sec | "professional" means ass-kissing, sucking up, and backstabbing. LT acknowledged | Apr 10 12:57 |
| Techrights-sec | that much. | Apr 10 12:57 |
| Techrights-sec | It was a very stupid, foolish move for RMS to give M$ so much PR leverage over | Apr 10 12:57 |
| Techrights-sec | him and thus GNU. | Apr 10 12:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | months later SJVN wrote, and even told me directly, that "even RMS" was OK with Microsoft | Apr 10 12:58 |
| Techrights-sec | The set him up and then took the opportunity his visit afforded. So the | Apr 10 13:00 |
| Techrights-sec | last that many people saw or heard of him was at M$ and that allows M$ to | Apr 10 13:00 |
| Techrights-sec | further control the narrative about "acceptance" of their vile software and | Apr 10 13:00 |
| Techrights-sec | worse behavior and lack of ethics. | Apr 10 13:00 |
| Techrights-sec | Yes, SJVN fell for the lies but since RMS was cancelled, he could not correct | Apr 10 13:00 |
| Techrights-sec | the lies even with SJVN. Then on the other hand SJVN did sell out around then. | Apr 10 13:00 |
| Techrights-sec | I forget which quarter he turned but it went quickly. | Apr 10 13:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | I asked RMS to explain his visit | Apr 10 13:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | which he later diod | Apr 10 13:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | he said Microsoft had written to him | Apr 10 13:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | and expressed interest | Apr 10 13:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | he didn't say who wrote it | Apr 10 13:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | many someone Microsoft had poached to "influence" | Apr 10 13:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | *maybe | Apr 10 13:01 |
| Techrights-sec | EIther way he go used badly. | Apr 10 13:13 |
| Techrights-sec | to the detriment of FOSS in general. | Apr 10 13:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | back with teapot I could use your advice if you wish to quickly annotate what's on the screen, what to use? gimp is too slow and not suitable for the tsk | Apr 10 13:13 |
| Techrights-sec | I'm not sure, I would have said Gimp. Krita will be slower as far as I know Ksnip maybe? Inkscape would be clunkier than Gimp. What about LibreOffice Draw? | Apr 10 13:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | I never tried Krita | Apr 10 13:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | but I am familiar with the others | Apr 10 13:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | GIMP can be OK, but it's not suited for this task | Apr 10 13:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | the UI is not for rapid jotting on the screen | Apr 10 13:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | that's what I liked video form for | Apr 10 13:16 |
| Techrights-sec | Knsip? | Apr 10 13:18 |
| Techrights-sec | ^Ksnip? | Apr 10 13:18 |
| Techrights-sec | You've got KDE already IIRC | Apr 10 13:18 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Apr 10 13:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | spactacle and ksnip do not allolw ad hoc, in-pace edits, go to external editor | Apr 10 13:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | like I said firefox canm take urll and print to file | Apr 10 13:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | iirc as png as well | Apr 10 13:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | but then I might want to draw on it+ add some text | Apr 10 13:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | thousands of times over | Apr 10 13:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | i want to research this BEFORE potentially spending hours per week | Apr 10 13:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | only to have remorse later | Apr 10 13:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | the workflow for this should be | Apr 10 13:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | press some combo | Apr 10 13:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | e.g. with xbindkeys | Apr 10 13:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | then draw some stuff on the screen press save and choose filename | Apr 10 13:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | I wonder if something like that exists for gnu/linux | Apr 10 13:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | i never stumbled upon such a thing | Apr 10 13:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | but I can't be the first person to want that | Apr 10 13:22 |
| Techrights-sec | hmm --recording crashed firefox | Apr 10 13:22 |
| Techrights-sec | Gimp has scripting | Apr 10 13:22 |
| Techrights-sec | two kinds of scripting | Apr 10 13:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | good engineers added good things to mozilla firefox | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | inc. CLI stuff | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | now chromium has better CLI tools | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | I checked | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | and the settings were watered down in firefox in more recent versions | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | because they hate core useers | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | 30+ (million) OK | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | LOCs | Apr 10 13:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | let's just remove those 10 lines of code "For security" | Apr 10 13:24 |

| schestowitz-TR | trying flameshot now | Apr 10 13:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | yes!!! This is exactly what I needed! | Apr 10 13:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | you run it as | Apr 10 13:30 |

| schestowitz-TR | then press ave | Apr 10 13:30 |

| schestowitz-TR | simple ave dialogue appears | Apr 10 13:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | perfect | Apr 10 13:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | I will; deposit the text I put in for alt="" in the text file | Apr 10 13:30 |
| Techrights-sec | There's also an -anotate and -gravity option in ImageMagick, that's highly | Apr 10 13:31 |
| Techrights-sec | scriptable | Apr 10 13:31 |
| Techrights-sec | -draw too | Apr 10 13:31 |
| Techrights-sec | excellent | Apr 10 13:31 |

| schestowitz-TR | hi | Apr 10 14:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | can you take a quick look att he draft and say if this apporoach makes sense | Apr 10 14:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | and if not what to improve? | Apr 10 14:27 |
| Techrights-sec | hi | Apr 10 14:30 |
| Techrights-sec | router maintenance complete (AFAIK) | Apr 10 14:30 |
| Techrights-sec | ok | Apr 10 14:30 |
| Techrights-sec | s/propaganda/propaganda and disinformation/ | Apr 10 14:30 |
| Techrights-sec | I'm not seeing the ALT text though | Apr 10 14:33 |
| Techrights-sec | ok the proof of the pudding is in the gemtext | Apr 10 14:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | checking a conversion to gemtext | Apr 10 14:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | to increase chances of it updating OK | Apr 10 14:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | I shift between two modes of traffic-shaping | Apr 10 14:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | one is more lenient | Apr 10 14:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | and with it on, completition is almost assured | Apr 10 14:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | it tends to increase latency when I surf the web though | Apr 10 14:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | had tc not needed root | Apr 10 14:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | it would have been both possible and wise to enable the lenient mode as | Apr 10 14:38 |
| schestowitz-TR | part of the refresh script | Apr 10 14:38 |
| schestowitz-TR | and then revert back at the end | Apr 10 14:38 |
| Techrights-sec | the tc script can be portioned off into /usr/local/sbin/ and then | Apr 10 14:40 |
| Techrights-sec | a line added to /etc/sudoers so that it can then be called from the refresh | Apr 10 14:40 |
| Techrights-sec | script without needed a password. Just don't let it accept options or else | Apr 10 14:40 |
| Techrights-sec | hard code the options into the sudoers file | Apr 10 14:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | update complete | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | looks fine as text in kristall | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | the hard part will be grouping related topics | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | it is at least fast to do esp. when I get all the workflow right | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | like adding texts to klipper while I type it, then spewing it out into | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | a text file afterwards | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | added the traffic shaping scripts to sbin | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | going to change sudoers now, with the validating editor | Apr 10 14:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | unlike the last time | Apr 10 14:44 |
| Techrights-sec | Looks ok in amfora but I wonder about the missing contentin the ALT text. | Apr 10 14:45 |
| Techrights-sec | There is material there in Gemtext and it kind of makes sense, but is it enough? | Apr 10 14:45 |
| Techrights-sec | be ue to use visudo and to test befor closingthat window | Apr 10 14:45 |
| *DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Apr 10 14:54 | |
| schestowitz-TR | i am looking at dusoers docs | Apr 10 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | from what I can gather | Apr 10 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | gemini ALL = EXEC: /one comand | Apr 10 14:58 |
| Techrights-sec | %gemini ALL=(root:root) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/sbin/command1 "" | Apr 10 14:58 |
| Techrights-sec | The documentation is confusing. Exec and NoExec refer to shell escapes. | Apr 10 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | a second identical line for command2? | Apr 10 14:59 |
| schestowitz | # User privilege specification | Apr 10 15:04 |
| schestowitz | root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL | Apr 10 15:04 |
| schestowitz | # Allow members of group sudo to execute any command | Apr 10 15:04 |
| schestowitz | %sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL | Apr 10 15:04 |
| schestowitz | %gemini ALL=(root:root) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/sbin/tc-shaper-v2021-Nov.sh "" | Apr 10 15:04 |
| schestowitz | %gemini ALL=(root:root) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/sbin/tc-shaper-v2.sh "" | Apr 10 15:04 |
| Techrights-sec | yes | Apr 10 15:07 |
| Techrights-sec | that should do it, gemini will be able to run those two scripts as root | Apr 10 15:07 |
| Techrights-sec | without a password but with no options | Apr 10 15:07 |
| schestowitz-TR | ok, saving with visudo, will stay logged in regardless, as root | Apr 10 15:07 |
| schestowitz-TR | tested OK | Apr 10 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | as gemini | Apr 10 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | can you add those to the update scripts and git? | Apr 10 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | that ought to assure completition | Apr 10 15:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | and no lock files lying about except power loss, rather than timeouts | Apr 10 15:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | the one you want running during updates is Nov.sh | Apr 10 15:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | yes, this is the correct order | Apr 10 15:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | it only temporarily slows down our connection | Apr 10 15:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | I think this is the first system level change we make since the latest cloning top external backup | Apr 10 15:13 |
| Techrights-sec | yes, test first before closing the window or even closing the editor! | Apr 10 15:14 |
| Techrights-sec | It would be a matter of putting this line in the script: | Apr 10 15:14 |
| Techrights-sec | sudo /usr/local/sbin/tc-shaper-v2021-Nov.sh | Apr 10 15:14 |
| Techrights-sec | and then later | Apr 10 15:14 |
| Techrights-sec | sudo /usr/local/sbin/tc-shaper-v2.sh | Apr 10 15:14 |
| Techrights-sec | or vice versa | Apr 10 15:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | I am really LOVING the use of this new program | Apr 10 15:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | it takes no longer to respond to FUD | Apr 10 15:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | than it did in video | Apr 10 15:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | I just need to think how to group related rebuttals | Apr 10 15:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | also, with the screenshot, context can be seen but no traffic sent | Apr 10 15:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | the headline is showing so people can ask gulag where that is | Apr 10 15:28 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Apr 10 15:37 |
| schestowitz-TR | i've just done some testijng of daily links in gemini:// | Apr 10 15:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | to ensure it makes sense | Apr 10 15:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | nice thing is when I link to the wiki or to older posts it points to the gemini:// equiv | Apr 10 15:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | so on average about 5 links in daily links stay in geminisspace | Apr 10 15:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | for the rest there are excerpts and "External" link | Apr 10 15:39 |
