| schestowitz-TR | commondreams needs to focus on class issues | Jul 13 11:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | not BS and partisan nonsense | Jul 13 11:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | but they've increasingly done this in recetnt years | Jul 13 11:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | usually I just skip | Jul 13 11:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | seems like one very effective way to change the subject and re-divert rage | Jul 13 11:10 |
| Techrights-sec | yes, many things are used as a distraction from class issues | Jul 13 11:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | if this worsens in commondreams, we'll dump them | Jul 13 11:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | counterpunch and scheer, to their credit, don't touch this toxic crap | Jul 13 11:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | they stay on course | Jul 13 11:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | let mental issues be treated by professionals | Jul 13 11:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | social control media execerbates this | Jul 13 11:12 |
| Techrights-sec | ok let me know if/when to drop it; also if there are replacement feeds they | Jul 13 11:13 |
| Techrights-sec | can be added any time as well | Jul 13 11:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | tomshardware covers a lot of rapi, BUT: | Jul 13 11:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | a) it seems to posta TON of CRAP/webspam | Jul 13 11:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | b) even their rap coverage seems like webspam some of the time | Jul 13 11:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | *raspi coverage | Jul 13 11:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | telesur can be OK at times, but I only see that when I filter for particular topics | Jul 13 11:15 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | somehow that reminds me of the massive censorship going on at Reddit, which | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | I never visit but read about. The general tech public seems to respond that | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | there is no censorship there because Reddit itself says so. Yet every week or | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | so there are blog posts about people geting posts or whole accounts closed bu | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | ^by | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | by the admins there and that even founders of some "subreddits" get the boot | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | for political reasons regarding technology and software freedom, despite | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | not violating the terms of service. When that happens, the "subreddit" gets | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | handed over to microsofters, if they haven't gained control by other means | Jul 13 11:17 |
| Techrights-sec | before that. | Jul 13 11:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | their "Linux" sub censors Microsoft critics | Jul 13 11:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | it seems hostile towards actual advocates of Linux | Jul 13 11:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | reddit needs to die, maybe after twitter | Jul 13 11:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | twitter started spamming me, so they probably bleed at the moment | Jul 13 11:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | profusely | Jul 13 11:18 |
| Techrights-sec | Too many naively think that "/r/Linux" is about Linux. | Jul 13 11:19 |
| Techrights-sec | Yes, that's one of the ones which is run by microsofters | Jul 13 11:19 |
| Techrights-sec | Reddit won't die because it is an essential propaganda site used for controling | Jul 13 11:19 |
| Techrights-sec | the foolish | Jul 13 11:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | commondreams (truthout reprints a lot of it) is still predominantly OK | Jul 13 11:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | but sometimes companies like twitter or some publishers get infikltrated | Jul 13 11:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | by people whose goals are not comms or journalism | Jul 13 11:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | mozille, LF, EFF, Red Hat... many more, not the point | Jul 13 11:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | so then the veer off in some private "jihads" of staff members | Jul 13 11:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | who utilise these as vessels of infleunce | Jul 13 11:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | iirc, netflix had to suspend some staff foir trying to censor | Jul 13 11:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | a black comedian | Jul 13 11:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | it was not to their taste | Jul 13 11:22 |
| Techrights-sec | There are fewer avenues for new (i.e. young) people to gain access to information as opposed to disinformation or misinformation. | Jul 13 11:22 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Jul 13 11:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | there may be a sea of change ahead | Jul 13 11:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | I was gonna paste some links here for support | Jul 13 11:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | based on today's batch | Jul 13 11:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | but it's not important | Jul 13 11:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | GAFAM is not sustainable | Jul 13 11:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | I think we'll need to rejig the automated links soon, I have more capacity now (fewer Gulag, no social control media... sometimes I still | Jul 13 11:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | use Gulag search for some technical errors) | Jul 13 11:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | hopefully we can move tuxmachines over to the better stack very soon | Jul 13 11:28 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Jul 13 11:29 |
| Techrights-sec | have you written a short e-mail to the site's maintainers about suggesting | Jul 13 11:29 |
| Techrights-sec | that they regain focus. It takes only a few lines and *might* have a positive | Jul 13 11:29 |
| Techrights-sec | influence | Jul 13 11:29 |

| schestowitz-TR | tiktok=china learnes western narcotgics (addiction), makes a cheaper imitation | Jul 13 11:30 |
| Techrights-sec | tiktok is a brainwashing service | Jul 13 11:30 |
| Techrights-sec | dogma transmission for a hostile foreign entity | Jul 13 11:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | opium wars turned around, back on the perpetrator | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | china, to its credit, mostly blocked or defanged westen social control media | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | now the west tries to "curtail" tiktok | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | trying to turn another nation into dopes | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | or hostile for regime change | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | if china attacked guam, I think the young troops stationed there would take videos | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | of the bombing with their "smart" phone and upload these for "likes" | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | instead of fighting back | Jul 13 11:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | "1500 likes, that that, xi!" | Jul 13 11:33 |
| Techrights-sec | kids probably have many more times the contact hour with tiktok than with their | Jul 13 11:34 |
| Techrights-sec | own parents and siblings | Jul 13 11:34 |
| Techrights-sec | the phones are radio beacons for incoming strikes | Jul 13 11:34 |
| Techrights-sec | the presence of the phones helps locate, track, and target whole units based | Jul 13 11:34 |
| Techrights-sec | on a single individual carrying such a device | Jul 13 11:34 |
| schestowitz-TR | reportedly happens in UA and RU already | Jul 13 11:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | you can even assess troop density for "maximal impact" | Jul 13 11:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | or make missles that scan for signal strength to optimise the calibration | Jul 13 11:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | if the missles aren't too fast for that (can use drones to guise the incoming missles, as happens in gaza) | Jul 13 11:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | that tiny quite dorne outside thw window hs no weapons | Jul 13 11:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | but ir registers where you are for a warplane with 500KG payloads | Jul 13 11:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | there should be a slogan in bases, | Jul 13 11:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | "loose smart phones sink ships" | Jul 13 11:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | (lips) | Jul 13 11:41 |

| schestowitz-TR | I cannot "Scan" "QR codes" | Jul 13 11:41 |

| Techrights-sec | anything hosted elsewhere is not "end to end" encrypted | Jul 13 11:45 |
| Techrights-sec | same for extensions ofthat remote hosting, such as javascript-laden web pages | Jul 13 11:45 |
| Techrights-sec | those are only using a bit of the RAM and CPU of the client but otherwise | Jul 13 11:45 |
| Techrights-sec | fully an outgrowth of the remote system | Jul 13 11:45 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Jul 13 11:45 |
| schestowitz-TR | mail encryption in a Web browser CAN work | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | BUT | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | only if you use some browser plugin | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | and you trust | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | a) the browser | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | b) the plugin | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | c) the OS data routes | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | and that's quite a lot | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | for password promprts in pgp a lot of stuff gets locked to avoid input stealing | Jul 13 11:47 |
| Techrights-sec | mail cannot be encrypted in a web browser with any level of privacy | Jul 13 11:47 |
| Techrights-sec | d) the remote site serving up the javascript | Jul 13 11:47 |
| schestowitz-TR | assume no JS | Jul 13 11:48 |
| schestowitz-TR | assume it's just some page serving you an ecrypted blob | Jul 13 11:48 |

| schestowitz-TR | like now it's something that's unsocial to do | Jul 13 14:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | we need to go to the bank this month | Jul 13 14:46 |
| Techrights-sec | masks are a medical decision, but everything in the US is a political | Jul 13 14:50 |
| Techrights-sec | flag instead | Jul 13 14:50 |
| schestowitz-TR | banks are a place where you show your id and take many paper notes for the year or 6 months | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | most of the other activity is not needed because you give a series of numbers to companies and then | Jul 13 14:57 |

| schestowitz-TR | banks now offer far fewer services but the charges are the same | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | so they make a killing | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | and since interest rates are so low they risk making themselves worthless | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | pension plans have become gambling houses | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | turning people'\s very long-term savinngs into collaterial to fake the "health" | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | of "the market" | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | which just pits more money into the casino | Jul 13 14:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | ---------------------------------------------------- | Jul 13 14:57 |
| Techrights-sec | there are no savings because service charges are so high and interest rates so | Jul 13 14:58 |

| Techrights-sec | a lot of pensions are directly or indirectly involved in those gambling-like | Jul 13 15:06 |
| Techrights-sec | activities | Jul 13 15:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | in case the pension plans go under and inflation still soars, I reckon I can do part time at the university | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | to make up for any deficits | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | speculations, derivatives, borrowings based on false assumptions | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | or giving loans based on money that the lender does not have | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | this won't end well | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | but then again, I want to reduce participation in such a systemt | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | the simplest way is to reduce spendings to a bare minumimum | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | like anti-war protestants (not religion) who tried to reduce how much tax they pais as this | Jul 13 15:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | would reduce contribution to wars etc. | Jul 13 15:08 |
| *Despatche (~desp@u3xy9z2ifjzci.irc) has joined #boycottnovell | Jul 13 15:09 | |
| schestowitz-TR | 1) a lot of people live in debt, so they have no choice. They overspend to ovecompensate for insecurities | Jul 13 15:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | and peer pressure from media and social control 'media' plays a role (need a new cars etc.) | Jul 13 15:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | 2) OTOH, many people work too much (or have too many kids) and then live in fear of running our of money | Jul 13 15:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | so they stop living and only work to death | Jul 13 15:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | or un til they are too old to enjot the time they have when pension age is reached | Jul 13 15:18 |

| schestowitz-TR | <techrights-news> Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols: "'The Evil Empire' hasn't been evil for about eight years now". Now Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols is literally defending criminals who blackmail and bribe officials. He also libels, repeatedly, the founder of GNU/Linux. | Jul 13 15:27 |
| Techrights-sec | SJVN is pushing the limits and probably could be called out for outright lying | Jul 13 15:30 |
| Techrights-sec | Misleading and misdirection, for sure. | Jul 13 15:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | he repeats the microsoft talking points | Jul 13 15:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | worthless to say the least | Jul 13 15:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | not worth spending time on | Jul 13 15:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | he wasn't always this bad | Jul 13 15:31 |
| Techrights-sec | He's long gone. The only thing that I wonder about is how they got hold of him | Jul 13 15:31 |
| Techrights-sec | a few years back and appear to have broken him so badly that he is willing | Jul 13 15:31 |
| Techrights-sec | to bleat M$ talking points in print under his own name. :( :( :( | Jul 13 15:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | it would be a waste of time to rebut all the lies | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | and doing a video about it later today would only give visibility to it | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | afaik, it has not yet earned much views | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | better keep it like that | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | I see SN is also happy to amplify broanshirts | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | so fuck SN if they front-p[age it | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | he's having a go at me in twitter tight now | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | not that IU care | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | I don't have town to tat weirdoville | Jul 13 15:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | nhs numbers will be out soon | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | I look forward to it as this will be the last for a week | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'm too powerless to pressure them to release figures daily like australia still does, according | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | to amarsh4 in IRC | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | but more important than that, I need to not get infected | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | not even once | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's going to get easier (many things will) when I leave the job | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | but I need to do it pproperly to get severance | Jul 13 15:35 |
| schestowitz-TR | o proxies of Microsoft now attack SFC for calling out Microsoft... for doing something illegal. Is there a crime-worshiping cult online now? | Jul 13 15:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | Microsofters even bought "Linux"-named podcasts to spread Microsoft talking points under the "Linux" name http://techrights.org/2020/05/29/jupiter-broadcasting/ like Famous Criminal Bill Gates buying publishers | Jul 13 15:42 |

| Techrights-sec | I don't read Phoronix any more except on /very/ rare occasion. Probably only | Jul 13 15:43 |
| Techrights-sec | one time since he sold out. | Jul 13 15:43 |
| Techrights-sec | FSF should have a voice too. | Jul 13 15:43 |
| Techrights-sec | Yes, there is a crime-worshipping cult in real life and online | Jul 13 15:43 |
| Techrights-sec | Brigading is just noise | Jul 13 15:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | Maybe FSF is afriad of more brigading and mobbing again | Jul 13 15:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | for calling out crime | Jul 13 15:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | like the GPL violations | Jul 13 15:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | so the FSF became numb | Jul 13 15:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | paralysed | Jul 13 15:43 |
| Techrights-sec | The FSF has appeared so quiet and inactive this year that they seem defunct. | Jul 13 15:44 |
| Techrights-sec | I'm not sure I will donate later this year when it is time again. | Jul 13 15:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | SJVN has in effect joined the Microsoft mob attacking GNU/Linux, saying... no it's OK... nothing going on here, spread your legs wider, let Microsoft do its thing http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/166960#comment-34323 | Jul 13 15:46 |
| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.tuxmachines.org | Microsoft Still Attacking From the Inside | Tux Machines | Jul 13 15:46 | |
| Techrights-sec | yes he has been actually working against FOSS for a while | Jul 13 15:52 |
| Techrights-sec | It's tragic because it effectively burns up all the good work he did over the | Jul 13 15:52 |
| Techrights-sec | earlier decades and when he sets down his pen for good, if he can ever retire, | Jul 13 15:52 |
| Techrights-sec | he will be remembered only as an M$ shill and apologist | Jul 13 15:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | the important thing is that years ago, years after rianne, I came to accept spamnil and sjvn had defected and they are not coming back | Jul 13 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | with phoronix it happened in february | Jul 13 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | I gave him a day to explain himself first | Jul 13 15:53 |
| Techrights-sec | I *never* trusted spamnil. Something was just not right about his early work | Jul 13 15:53 |
| Techrights-sec | though I could not lay a finger on precisely what. | Jul 13 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | I am not familiar with what he wrote in india\ | Jul 13 15:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | but he told me he had been reading BN | Jul 13 15:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | I think he lacks any real background in both CS and journalism | Jul 13 15:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | he's a cheap rep | Jul 13 15:56 |
