techrights-newsWhitehurst took off his fedora. He was fed up. #ibm #redhatJul 03 00:03
techrights-news#IBM is striking partnerships with the world’s biggest patent trolls, it’s pushing #softwarepatents , and it is killing any remnants of hope (a much-needed policy change). No wonder Whitehurst called it quits. http://techrights.org/2021/06/07/ibm-self-harm-swpats/ #redhatJul 03 00:04

techrights-newsI find myself unable to write an ACTUAL article about #ibm losing #whitehurst and what it means to #redhat because, having spent 3 hours researching this and that, all I find online is gossip and speculation. Sometimes mutually contradictory. If you're an insides and know the full story, contact me privately. roy at my-surname com.Jul 03 00:08
techrights-newsMy first interview with Jim Whitehurst (they reached out to me, not myself to them) was 10 years ago: http://techrights.org/2011/12/22/jim-whitehurst-q-and-a/ he was evasive about #swpats even back then...Jul 03 00:09

Old laptop (2009): many keys breaking to pieces after 5 years. Very poor build quality. Today: rather new laptop, 4 keys stop working intermittently. That's ALL our HP laptops (3). All of them. The others are ALL fine (Taiwan-made). #compaq was BETTER.Jul 03 00:25

Librarianimmibis, I already explained that above:Jul 03 13:45
Librarian15:01 < Librarian> It was not accepted by the slave owners of the American south in the 1850s, because they said that abolishing slavery would deprive them of their "freedom" to own slaves.Jul 03 13:46
Librarian15:02 < Librarian> That's why socialists who attempt to impose socialism on people against their free choice are seen as exactly the same as slave-owners of the American south in the 1850s.Jul 03 13:46

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.tuxmachines.org | GNOME 40.2 on Debian / Ubuntu – JHBuild GNOME Latest | Tux MachinesJul 03 13:46
Librarian15:03 < Librarian> Socialists seek to commandeer the labor of others (and the goods acquired by such labor) against their choice and enforced with violence.Jul 03 13:46
Librarian15:03 < Librarian> They're enslavers.Jul 03 13:46
LibrarianMy TV is the result of my labor. If you try to redirect the output of my labor to the resources of *your* choosing instead of *my* choosing, then, by definition, you're enslaving me.Jul 03 13:47
LibrarianThat enslavement requires you to force me to work for the ends you determine, which is the opposite of freedom. Whereas, if we just leave each other alone to work for the ends we determine for ourselves, no violence must occur, and we get to choose for ourselves the results of our labor: that's peaceful, and it's the opposite of slavery, called "freedom."Jul 03 13:49
LibrarianAbove I offered: 15:08 < Librarian> Would you like me to help you operate a web browser, so that you can look it up and figure out what the most common usage of the term "free market" is?Jul 03 13:51
Librarian15:08 < Librarian> I can guide you if you need such guidance. Let me know if you'd like my help in that way.Jul 03 13:51
LibrarianAnd now, since you misapplied the term "forcing" to the concept of "free market," I will now make good on that offer and show you where you could have read for yourself what the "free market" is and how it doesn't require me to force you to do anything:Jul 03 13:52
Librarianhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_marketJul 03 13:52
immibisLibrarian: You seem to think that your imposition against my free choice doesn't count for some reasonJul 03 13:52
LibrarianThat's because the free market doesn't require (nor even permit) "my imposition agianst your free choice."Jul 03 13:52
LibrarianYou just made that up. It's false. It's factually wrong.Jul 03 13:52
LibrarianIf you force me to labor for something *you* choose, then *that's* an "imposition against my free choice." But if you simply leave me alone, for *me* to labor for something *I* choose, then that's the opposite of an "imposition against my free choice;" that's called "freedom."Jul 03 13:54
LibrarianAnd the definition of "Free market" on the page I just provided the link to would have explained that, if you had done a simple web search and read it.Jul 03 13:54
*inky_ has quit (Ping timeout: 268 seconds)Jul 03 13:55

Librarianimmibis, do you happen to know where the phrase originated, in which evil socialist totalitarians attempted to brainwash people, through a concerted propaganda campaign and formalized attempts to rewrite dictionaries, to believe that "freedom is slavery?" Do you know the dystopian fiction literature in which that phrase, exactly as written, was popularized?Jul 03 14:13
immibisLibrarian: you seem to be saying the free market *obliges* you to impose against my free choice. I have the free choice to take your TV and leave some money, and by not allowing that, you are imposing against my free choice.Jul 03 14:14
immibisin fact, I have the free choice to burn your house down and cover the yard in toxic radioactive goo, and by not allowing that, you are imposing against my free choice.Jul 03 14:14
LibrarianThat's exactly the logic employed by slave-owners in the American south in the 1850s, to justify their unethical slavery.Jul 03 14:14
Librarian"But I want to have the FREEEEEDOM to enslave black people!"Jul 03 14:15
LibrarianThat's what vile, depraved socialists want to do today, too: "But I want to have the FREEEEEDOM to enslave *you* to force you to work for me to have a TV!"Jul 03 14:15
LibrarianBut "freedom" and "slavery" are words that mean the opposite of each other, not the same thing.Jul 03 14:16
*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving)Jul 03 14:17

immibisis it really so hard to accept that you are imposing against my free choice?Jul 03 14:29
immibiscognitive dissonance, man. it's astoundingJul 03 14:30
LibrarianNo; it's merely using terms in exactly the way they're defined in the dictionary, rather than attempting to reverse them to mean completely the opposite.Jul 03 14:32
Librarian"Enslaving" someone is not "freedom."Jul 03 14:33
LibrarianIt really is that simple.Jul 03 14:33
Librarianimmibis, do you happen to know where the phrase originated, in which evil socialist totalitarians attempted to brainwash people, through a concerted propaganda campaign and formalized attempts to rewrite dictionaries, to believe that "freedom is slavery?" Do you know the dystopian fiction literature in which that phrase, exactly as written, was popularized?Jul 03 14:33
Librarianimmibis, here's a hint: if you type that phrase into a web search engine, with quotes, exactly as I wrote it, you can find the answer quickly and easily.Jul 03 14:34
LibrarianHmm, incapable of answering. Okay, well, that's an interesting comparison:Jul 03 14:38
LibrarianA. When immibis asks a question that hinges on the meaning of the terms "freedom" and "slavery," I can answer quickly and cite the dictionaries and Wikipedia articles that support my usage of those terms.Jul 03 14:39
LibrarianB. Whn I ask a question about where the conflation of such opposite terms was popularized, immibis tries desperately to avoid answering.Jul 03 14:39
LibrarianWhich of the above, A or B, is a symptom of "cognitive dissonance?"Jul 03 14:39
DaemonFCEven though "no surprise billing" is a federal law now, 30% of hospitals aren't complying at all and are daring the Biden Administration to come at them, and about another 20% are making it very hard to get at any useful data. Very corrupt industry.Jul 03 14:45
DaemonFCThe regulations say that the data for the 300 most common procedures performed in the hospital must be presented, including cash prices, and what insurance companies would pay, and that it must be presented to the public in a way that is easy to open on a personal computer.Jul 03 14:46

DaemonFCThat Root Insurance started off as we don't insure bad drivers so you won't pay for other people's misbehavior.Jul 03 15:15
DaemonFCBut then they just kept raising prices and now you have potentially dodgy insurance from an app that spies on you, and it costs as much as any other company out there.Jul 03 15:15
blitzeddivide & conquer garbage, smokescreen to get the pawns saber-rattlingJul 03 15:15
DaemonFCThey basically lied to sucker people into giving them data, burned through venture capital, and now they're just the same as the big old expensive insurance company.Jul 03 15:17
DaemonFCAll of them want you to give them tons of data, and it can backfire and raise your rates.Jul 03 15:17
DaemonFCThey say oh you can save 10%, and then they use the data to raise your premium 20% vs what you would have paid had you given them nothing to begin withJul 03 15:18
DaemonFCYou have to be very careful with those, especially the apps.Jul 03 15:18
DaemonFCBecause they spy on you and they ding you for holding your phone when they think you're driving. How could they possibly know you're the one driving?Jul 03 15:19
Ariadneoh oh i knowJul 03 15:21

DaemonFCMinceR, ^Jul 03 17:17
immibisthere are like so many ways to address this other than screaming "abolish the government"Jul 03 17:18
immibis1. vote for a better damn government. 2. get alternative electricity service. 3. go protest (worked for BLM, right?)Jul 03 17:18
DaemonFCOh, I don't think we should abolish the government and leave it at that.Jul 03 17:18
DaemonFCMost of them should be hanged as well.Jul 03 17:18
immibisand it's certainly not communist. Every corporation *wishes* to have that kind of government-preferred status and they will bribe the government to do soJul 03 17:18
DaemonFCWhy do you think I stay in my house most of the time?Jul 03 17:19
DaemonFCIt's the closest you can be to free of the government. You go outside and it's much easier to accuse you of having violated one of any number of laws.Jul 03 17:19

immibisthe right-wing US healthcare system?Jul 03 17:26

DaemonFCIf you have a private plan, probably next week at the latest.Jul 03 17:26
immibisthe US right managed to take a leftist plan that's worked everywhere else and pervert it with right-wing elements that caused it to failJul 03 17:27
DaemonFCThe Democrats always blame the Joe Manchins, but at the time they passed the Unaffordable Care Act to give everyone $8,000 deductibles, they had 60 Democrats in the Senate.Jul 03 17:27
DaemonFCThey could have passed literally anything they wanted to, ignoring their right-most flank entirely. Cutting them out of the process.Jul 03 17:28
immibisthe democrats are right-wingJul 03 17:28

immibisat the high levels of government there are no better options. But at the low levels, there are PLENTY of better options.Jul 03 17:29

immibisin capitalism anyone can do anything, or so they tell meJul 03 17:31
MinceRthey're wrongJul 03 17:31
DaemonFCBLM mostly achieved bans on Critical Race Theory and laws allowing people to run over rioters and claim self-defense.Jul 03 17:31
DaemonFCWhoops.Jul 03 17:31
DaemonFCIf someone's attacking my car, guess what happens.Jul 03 17:32
DaemonFCI hit the gas.Jul 03 17:32
DaemonFCIt's totally reasonable. People should use jury nullification to let people who were defending themselves go.Jul 03 17:32
immibishmm. what if someone's attacking my person, can I shoot them?Jul 03 17:32
MinceRthat's what self-defense is, isn't it?Jul 03 17:33
immibisif so, DaemonFC is giving permission for those people to legally shoot himJul 03 17:33
immibisand i bet if they shoot him he'll blame it on the communist government (despite america being the most capitalist country in existence)Jul 03 17:33
DaemonFCIf they're black and we're in Illinois, they'll probably either never be found or threaten to burn down the country if the perp doesn't walk.Jul 03 17:35
DaemonFCSo it won't matter much I guess.Jul 03 17:35
DaemonFCFirst, you have to get the cops to give a shit and do their job. (LOL)Jul 03 17:35
immibisonly two things ever come out of DaemonFC's mouth: 1. "X is communist and therefore bad!" and 2. "Black people are bad because X!"Jul 03 17:35
DaemonFCThen you have to get past the liberal namby-pamby prosecutors who don't prosecute black people.Jul 03 17:35
MinceRself-defense doesn't apply to the first offenderJul 03 17:36
DaemonFCThen you have to get a jury that's going to have black people on it to convict.Jul 03 17:36
DaemonFCThe jury system is biased against white defendants.Jul 03 17:37
DaemonFCWhite jurors hold white people accountable, but that's largely not true with black jurors who see a black defendant.Jul 03 17:37
DaemonFCSo it's basically a modern take on the "all white jury" complaints from 100 years ago.Jul 03 17:37
DaemonFCSomehow that was very wrong, but this is not.Jul 03 17:38
immibisMinceR: so if I steal your ballpoint pen, and you run me over with your car in response, I don't get to shoot you to defend myself from that?Jul 03 17:38
DaemonFCThis morning, the news in Chicago reported on a man who walked up and shot his neighbor over a noisy stereo after having previously wwarned him a few times.Jul 03 17:39
DaemonFCI wrote this reply: "Everyone's had a neighbor with a loud stereo who wouldn't turn it down to a reasonable volume or responded to a polite request to turn it down a little by cranking it up.Jul 03 17:40
DaemonFCWhen you turn the neighbor's apartment into a torture rack from Guantánamo Bay, you should really consider who you're pissing off. Especially in the south side of Lori's gun-free mostly peaceful Democrat city.Jul 03 17:40
DaemonFCThe cops may have arrested the shooter, but he probably got a standing ovation from anyone with a job who lived in the building on the way out."Jul 03 17:40
immibisDaemonFC: So you agreed with the shooter in this case?Jul 03 17:41
DaemonFCIt's just a fact that more people than not would have been glad this guy got shot if they had to go to work this morning and this guy was making it impossible for them to sleep.Jul 03 17:42
immibisDaemonFC: You don't think the neighbour should have shot the would-be shooter for trespassing?Jul 03 17:42
DaemonFCYeah, if I had been _a_ neighbor I would have been glad the guy was dead.Jul 03 17:42
DaemonFCI wouldn't have shot him, but I'd be glad that he wasn't an issue anymore.Jul 03 17:43
DaemonFCPlus, bonus, the police got rid of the shooter, which is probably in a gang and no way did he have the gun legally.Jul 03 17:43
DaemonFCSo it's a twofer.Jul 03 17:43
immibisDaemonFC: sounds like you would sympathize with BLMJul 03 17:44
DaemonFCDoes anyone really care HOW the guy with the loud stereo was dealt with as long as he's not keeping you up unttil 4 AM on a work night?Jul 03 17:44
immibisexcept you wouldn't because they're black and you're racistJul 03 17:44
DaemonFCI mean really?Jul 03 17:44
DaemonFCMinceR?Jul 03 17:45
DaemonFCYour take?Jul 03 17:45
immibisDaemonFC: you are proposing the death penalty as a consequence of loud music. Can I assume that you would never propose that penalty for a white person?Jul 03 17:45
DaemonFCPlay stupid games, win stupid prizes. He was asked politely twice before he got shot.Jul 03 17:45
immibisfor example, if you played loud music, and then got shot and went to the afterlife, would ghostly you be thinking the shooter was in the right?Jul 03 17:45
DaemonFCIt's not like oops I was watching a movie a little loud and the guy just shot me.Jul 03 17:45
immibisWhat if a black person asked you politely twice to stop using racial slurs, then shot you the third time?Jul 03 17:46
DaemonFCIf he had responded by lowering the volume and said "I'm so sorry. I didn't know I was bothering you. I will turn it down.", he wouldn't have been ventilated.Jul 03 17:46
DaemonFCHe was warned.Jul 03 17:46
immibisDaemonFC: what do you think about vigilante justice in general, especially severe penalties for relatively minor crimes?Jul 03 17:47
immibisdo you think the death penalty is an appropriate consequence for using the N word?Jul 03 17:47
DaemonFCWell, you know, I think there's definitely a case for that.Jul 03 17:47
DaemonFCIt came up in the movie Judge Dredd. They couldn't get the crime under control and Jürgen Prochnowsuggested the death sentence for lesser crimes.Jul 03 17:48
immibisAnd do you think that is something that should happen?Jul 03 17:48
DaemonFCI personally wouldn't be bothered at all if they doled out the death sentence for many more felonies.Jul 03 17:48
immibisIf you think it's appropriate to shoot people in the face for driving 1kmph over the speed limit, then no wonder you're too afraid of the government to leave your house.Jul 03 17:48
immibisLuckily for you, the government isn't actually as bad as your right-wing brainwashing sources have been telling youJul 03 17:49
DaemonFCYou would only have to worry about them hanging you if you had a trove of child porn or went around raping and mugging people.Jul 03 17:49
DaemonFCSo what do we lose, really, under my system?Jul 03 17:49
immibisDaemonFC: libertyJul 03 17:49
DaemonFCYou take out the trash and people can go for a walk at night in Chicago.Jul 03 17:49
DaemonFC"QUIT BREAKING THE LAW, ASSHOLE!!!" Jim Carey, Liar LiarJul 03 17:50
immibis<DaemonFC> It's the closest you can be to free of the government. You go outside and it's much easier to accuse you of having violated one of any number of laws.Jul 03 17:51
immibisDaemonFC: you think that all of those minor laws that you can accidentally violate by going outside, should have the death penalty?Jul 03 17:51
immibisDaemonFC: You could not go for a walk at night in Chicago. Or in the day. You'd accidentally break some minor law and get shot by the police.Jul 03 17:51

DaemonFCschestowitz, Insurance companiees have a pretty good rub even if you do carry full insurance.Jul 03 19:17
DaemonFCThey leave you with a deductible that would cost you more in premiums while also not covering a fender bender, leaving you to pay out of pocket anyway.Jul 03 19:17
DaemonFCMost people get a $500-1000 deductible and then they run into someone's piece of shit and it does $700 worth of damage to their car. So they basically get nothing or close to nothing from tthe insurance people. Then sometimes not only do they not pay anything out, but they say "You made a claim, so your rates go up again even though we didn't pay for anything.".Jul 03 19:18
DaemonFCRunning a car insurance company is basically pure profit other than the folks who push papers there.Jul 03 19:19

DaemonFCI wouldn't say that red states have good government and that's the reason crime is low.Jul 03 19:27
DaemonFCThey just don't tend to attract a lot of minorities because they don't do big welfare programs.Jul 03 19:27
DaemonFCAnd because they turned off the magnet, the crime never heads there because they would be expected to get _some_ kind of an income that didn't involve free rent and unreported income from slinging dope while the cops don't come out of the police station.Jul 03 19:28
