| techrights-sec | Thunderbird seems to consistently screw up threading in the inbox. | Oct 22 08:22 |
| techrights-sec | It keeps putting unrelated messages together. | Oct 22 08:22 |
| techrights-sec | It keeps putting unrelated messages together, even though the messages contain | Oct 22 08:26 |
| techrights-sec | proper Message-ID and References fields in their headers. WTF is Baker doing with all that Google money? There | Oct 22 08:26 |
| techrights-sec | is less and less to show for it each release, like they are going backwards. | Oct 22 08:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | musk will do to twitter what baker does to firefox and mozilla/email | Oct 22 08:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | cui bono? | Oct 22 08:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | the capital the musk comes partly from saudis | Oct 22 08:27 |
| schestowitz-TR | no twitter, no saudi dissidents in twitter | Oct 22 08:27 |
| techrights-sec | Good riddance to twitter, but thunderbird and firefox had been quite useful. | Oct 22 08:29 |
| techrights-sec | Yes even Firefox was useful once upon a time. | Oct 22 08:29 |
| techrights-sec | With the ongoing demise of thunderbird I see her as complicit in the elimination | Oct 22 08:29 |

| schestowitz-TR | found stuff in 6 of 7 shops | Oct 22 11:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | to at least make the journey worth it, aside from getting a new durable mouse | Oct 22 11:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | there was some guy at the gadgets and hardware store asking about Office | Oct 22 11:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | and the shopkeeper explains to him that's what a licence is for | Oct 22 11:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | they can't tell the difference between hardware store and MS BS | Oct 22 11:57 |
| schestowitz-TR | he basically did NOT like the latest version of Office | Oct 22 11:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | and wanted an OLD version | Oct 22 11:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | I didn't say anything | Oct 22 11:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | the shopkeeper asked him, what OS he was using | Oct 22 11:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | the guy could not even answer the question | Oct 22 11:58 |
| techrights-sec | ack | Oct 22 11:59 |
| techrights-sec | excellent that there were items which could be combined to make the trip | Oct 22 11:59 |
| techrights-sec | worthwhile | Oct 22 11:59 |
| techrights-sec | Typical, though, that most don't even know what an OS is. Sometimes there | Oct 22 11:59 |
| techrights-sec | are those that seem to think that there is only "Windows" | Oct 22 11:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | exactly | Oct 22 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | I'll post some articles shortly, I'm off work till monday evening | Oct 22 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | there si a football match near us in 3 hours | Oct 22 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | so I had to avoid the rush | Oct 22 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | 3 masks | Oct 22 12:02 |
| techrights-sec | as part of the hardware | Oct 22 12:02 |
| techrights-sec | Big crowds then. | Oct 22 12:02 |
| techrights-sec | :/ | Oct 22 12:02 |
| schestowitz-TR | my dad agrees with me on most of these things, but for practical reasons it's harder for him to isolate | Oct 22 12:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | as a high risk group, his group might account for more than 10% extra deaths | Oct 22 12:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | at least he is aware | Oct 22 12:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | thought on the way: pfizer: we solve the issue, now everyone can infect everyone! WIN! | Oct 22 12:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | Salk: we solved polio; now let's spread polio to 4 billion people, no worries about hospitalisation | Oct 22 12:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | the stadium's carrying capacity is about 50k, with some coming early for pub etc. | Oct 22 12:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | and it usualyl sells out (the team is considered best in the world or on par with best) | Oct 22 12:04 |
| techrights-sec | ack | Oct 22 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | lots of wioring work here | Oct 22 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | rianen decided she wants my mouse and I take the new one | Oct 22 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | it feels better so far | Oct 22 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | and fully compatible with all the previous x configs for device #, special key identifiers etc. | Oct 22 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | 3 mice upstairs (rianne's PCs) | Oct 22 12:36 |
| schestowitz-TR | 3 downstairs (mine) | Oct 22 12:36 |

| schestowitz-TR | quite a spectacle | Oct 22 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | amazing how upc tries to appoint judges who are in fact working for private patent companies | Oct 22 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | this is going to go down in flame | Oct 22 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | and there is more material by which to challenge the whole system | Oct 22 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | i want to ask though, | Oct 22 15:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | how much energy should TR allocate to this issue relative to other topics? | Oct 22 15:53 |
| techrights-sec | UPC -> European Patent Convention? | Oct 22 15:55 |
| techrights-sec | UPC -> Euroepan Patent Court> | Oct 22 15:55 |
| techrights-sec | ? | Oct 22 15:55 |
| techrights-sec | Both are worthy topics. The latter needs to be made to stay dead. | Oct 22 15:55 |
| techrights-sec | and dance on the grave . | Oct 22 15:55 |
| schestowitz-TR | ok, so you say it is indeed a high priority | Oct 22 16:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | I will do a video later on, I wait for more comments to pile upo | Oct 22 16:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | there are two new threads | Oct 22 16:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | it was timed for friday to hide the extent of the conflicts | Oct 22 16:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | and people still rush to call out the BS | Oct 22 16:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | so a good video and article will highlight the comments, not the propaganda | Oct 22 16:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | so now today, maybe monday when some more fodder piles up ;-) | Oct 22 16:00 |
| techrights-sec | Thanks | Oct 22 16:00 |

| schestowitz-TR | with upc, we always felt "behind" | Oct 22 16:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | the boosters lie sand play psychological games | Oct 22 16:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | we need to fight back with mockery, imho | Oct 22 16:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | and expose the lies | Oct 22 16:04 |
| schestowitz-TR | in the process they discredit the european system | Oct 22 16:05 |
| schestowitz-TR | like 4 years of trump | Oct 22 16:05 |
| techrights-sec | I hope the FFII can help. Can the FSF be resurrected too? | Oct 22 16:05 |
| techrights-sec | The EFF is a lost cause but there is still an obligation to make a symbolic | Oct 22 16:05 |
| techrights-sec | effort. | Oct 22 16:05 |
| schestowitz-TR | if you saw my last video on eff or read the textual summary, eff ddoes not even deal witth patents in the us | Oct 22 16:05 |
| schestowitz-TR | anymore, only one blog posts in 50 days! | Oct 22 16:05 |
| techrights-sec | Right so they can be contacted and their lack of response mocked | Oct 22 16:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | open letter to eff? | Oct 22 16:08 |
| techrights-sec | Possibly, but one that is well-thought out and covers all the key points. | Oct 22 16:21 |
| techrights-sec | It's nothing to do in a hurry and should take quite a few days to draft. IMHO | Oct 22 16:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | i've started drafting the monday-ish post re upc | Oct 22 16:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | draft | Oct 22 16:28 |
| techrights-sec | checking | Oct 22 16:30 |
| techrights-sec | (who around TR can help with the drafting of the open letter? It would be | Oct 22 16:30 |
| techrights-sec | very good to get input from several people) | Oct 22 16:30 |
| techrights-sec | If opensource.com is IBM it should be mentioned in the article, if it is not | Oct 22 16:30 |
| techrights-sec | then some kind of segue is needed to connect the last paragraph to the rest | Oct 22 16:30 |
| techrights-sec | of the text | Oct 22 16:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | I will add clarifying sentences | Oct 22 16:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | re eff, someone who knows upc needs to draft | Oct 22 16:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | no hurry | Oct 22 16:30 |
| techrights-sec | yes | Oct 22 16:41 |
| techrights-sec | no hurry on that | Oct 22 16:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | UPC is ALWAYS "real soon" | Oct 22 16:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | Rule #1 | Oct 22 16:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | don't believe them | Oct 22 16:42 |

| schestowitz-TR | but we have many exclusives coming | Oct 22 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | is my latest draft clearer? I changed a lot | Oct 22 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | on upc, we need a clear strategy | Oct 22 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | team upc plays dirty, we don't | Oct 22 17:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | and "nice guys finish last" | Oct 22 17:12 |
| techrights-sec | Artists working within all kinds of media have raised concerns in recent yearsand increasingly, with the rising | Oct 22 17:14 |
| techrights-sec | popularity of text-to-image generators like DALL-Eabout whether AI-generated art infringes on individuals copyr | Oct 22 17:14 |
| techrights-sec | ight. Most AI content generators depend on datasets that are filled with original artworks, texts, or audio, and | Oct 22 17:14 |
| techrights-sec | use those original works without the owners permission. """ | Oct 22 17:14 |
| schestowitz-TR | they should quit calling HEY HI | Oct 22 17:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | for starters | Oct 22 17:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | it'sa fair user-ish blender | Oct 22 17:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | and not a new issue | Oct 22 17:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's just more automated now | Oct 22 17:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | which makes it accessible to more people and harder to enforce again | Oct 22 17:15 |
| techrights-sec | Yes, a strategy is needed, but I am out of ideas there, at least for the moment. | Oct 22 17:16 |
| techrights-sec | That is aside from resurrecting the FSF a little. | Oct 22 17:16 |
| techrights-sec | UPC -> European Patent Convention ? | Oct 22 17:16 |
| techrights-sec | UPC -> European Patent Court? | Oct 22 17:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | upc=unified patent court | Oct 22 17:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | one strategy is, do nothing | Oct 22 17:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | as it might fall apart when defendants bring it to a high court | Oct 22 17:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | on all sorts of grounds | Oct 22 17:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | and we can focus on other issues | Oct 22 17:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | seeing that nobody i the EU enforces the f*ing law !!! | Oct 22 17:18 |
| techrights-sec | That last point, enforcing the law, should be explored yet again. What recourse | Oct 22 17:26 |
