psydroidI wish people would use their RPis for creating a global decentralised vault of information hosted on IPFS as a big middle finger to those malicious companies that control the direction of the webJan 04 01:55
psydroidin the end that is also the only thing we can rely on with staying power, because you can't control what isn't yoursJan 04 01:56
vZS1psydroid: it's already happening. The Catalan independence referendum was carried out only because of IPFS. Spanish government was censoring all the referendum information.Jan 04 01:56

DaemonFC[m]People used to make their own website with simple HTML and links, even if it was on a free hosting platform.Jan 04 02:07
MinceRmaybe they'll decide that it's "insecure", "dangerous" and/or "fake news" if people get to run their own sitesJan 04 02:07
DaemonFC[m]Now it's "Facebook", deciding if you're even allowed to post something with copyright "AI" and automods that kill off any left-wing groups and say someone anonymously reported them for something.Jan 04 02:07

MinceRcan't you just do that challenge from the web server?Jan 04 02:12
vZS1That's what I'm trying to say. They know where the data is coming fromJan 04 02:12
MinceRthey could just query the domain name of the site to get the same informationJan 04 02:12

schestowitz__butJan 04 02:22
schestowitz__many of the results that come up are SEO-spammed corporate mediaJan 04 02:22
schestowitz__that violates EU lawJan 04 02:22
schestowitz__namely GDPRJan 04 02:22
schestowitz__so google feeds to me results with sites I cannot accessJan 04 02:22
schestowitz__they block me to avoid breaking the lawJan 04 02:22
schestowitz__that aside,Jan 04 02:22
schestowitz__what's then left of "EPO" newsJan 04 02:22
schestowitz__is just lawyers' marketingJan 04 02:23
schestowitz__in 2019 I dropped search for "software patents" news after about 12-15 yearsJan 04 02:23
schestowitz__somewhere in betweenJan 04 02:23
schestowitz__the reason was,Jan 04 02:23
schestowitz__google news was mostly spamJan 04 02:23
schestowitz__by mostly I mean, it was approaching 80%Jan 04 02:23

schestowitz__neither in tr or social control mediaJan 04 02:24
schestowitz__1) epo staff is usually eu-basedJan 04 02:24

MinceRif it isn't helping you, there's no point in using itJan 04 02:25

schestowitz__need adviceJan 04 02:36
schestowitz__vZS1: how would you detect blocks with common patterns reliably or ask ipfs to do so itself?Jan 04 02:36
schestowitz__example: dear ipfs, please present me a link of all blocks with the following pattern, e.g. with grepJan 04 02:37
schestowitz__without having to run ipfs commands many times, each time with a different search patternJan 04 02:37
schestowitz__iow, ipfs pin ls (some regular expression passed to ipfs, not | grep something)Jan 04 02:37
vZS1I don't know what you mean by "detect blocks with common patterns"Jan 04 02:37
schestowitz__I want to tell ipfsJan 04 02:37
schestowitz__give me all objects match $THIS patternJan 04 02:38
schestowitz__but not othersJan 04 02:38
schestowitz__to avoid having to run the same command many times although it can be cached in file or variable in bashJan 04 02:38
vZS1Do you mean blocks or CIDs?Jan 04 02:39
schestowitz__for text-only index we don't want any headlines in between, but for html a split would make legibility betterJan 04 02:39

vZS1Yes it isJan 04 02:45
vZS1But it's not as malicious in intent as an LE challengeJan 04 02:46
XRevan86vZS1: It has literally the same intent.Jan 04 02:46
vZS1DNS is erosion of internet freedomJan 04 02:46
vZS1It's monopolisedJan 04 02:46

scientesMinceR, why does he have a post-card on his face?Jan 04 17:49
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz__: The paralegal says it might be better to request a new interview date, then have the attorney go over the I-864 we intend to file to make sure nothing gets fucked up, file it, and then have her go to the interview with us. I briefly described Maricel and she went "Uggghth.". I was like, "My sentiments exactly.".Jan 04 17:50

DaemonFC[m]I went over it in my head. I was like, "Well, if the lawyer costs $2,000 or somewhere around that probably, and she saves us from this turning into a complete disaster involving deportation defense while Mandy loses his job.....".Jan 04 17:52
DaemonFC[m]The worst thing that could happen is it would have gone through anyway and I wasted money. But she might just be the difference that keeps our case from going totally sideways during the "interview".Jan 04 17:53

DaemonFC[m]schestowitz__: Might note that Windows Store was on the verge of failing completely, filled with fake, fraudulent, and misleading apps that would be removed as violating Apple's quality standards, until Microsoft made it so that developers could take a plain old Win32 desktop app, with basically no changes, put it in an AppX package, and host it in the store. So there are some real applications now, but they mostlyJan 04 19:10
DaemonFC[m]ignore the UWP APIs completely, and they can miss important features. For example, VLC is there and can't play DVD or Blu Ray discs, and foobar2000 is there, but you can't add your own components to it, which is like 90% of the reason you'd use it.Jan 04 19:10

DaemonFC[m]Yeah, some KDE applications are in the Windows Store. They suggest making a donation, but if you do it that way then Microsoft will take 30% of the donation away from them.

schestowitz__will add to notes for future parts, maybe..Jan 04 19:13
schestowitz__thanksJan 04 19:13
psydroidit's not just that, KDE makes it hard to install stable versions of applications on Windows without the store, so you can usually only install nightliesJan 04 19:13
DaemonFC[m]Even the real applications in their store. You ask the developer "Why put crippleware in the store?" and they go "Some people use Windows 10 in S Mode.".Jan 04 19:13
schestowitz__seems like waste of dev effortJan 04 19:14
schestowitz__as I often tell themJan 04 19:14
DaemonFC[m]If you want the real, full, application, you have to bypass the store and go directly to the developer.Jan 04 19:14
schestowitz__most things they compile for win/store only get a few thousands active usersJan 04 19:14
DaemonFC[m]It's crazy. It's idiotic.Jan 04 19:14
schestowitz__worth the effort?Jan 04 19:14
DaemonFC[m]Microsoft's own policies on the Store are killing their own store.Jan 04 19:14
schestowitz__they shut down their PHYSICaL storesJan 04 19:14
DaemonFC[m]It's also pressuring people to give up and escape from S Mode because they can't actually use their computer if they don't.Jan 04 19:15
schestowitz__why not do the same with virtual ones?Jan 04 19:15
schestowitz__anyway, on to next article now..Jan 04 19:15
DaemonFC[m]<schestowitz__ "worth the effort?"> No, it's not. The whole idea of Windows Store has failed badly.Jan 04 19:15
DaemonFC[m]If Microsoft had been more supportive and flexible, who knows?Jan 04 19:16
DaemonFC[m]But the web is instead littered with developers recommending leaving S Mode so you can use their real application, not the Store version that doesn't have various features, or isn't allowed at all (like Firefox and Chrome).Jan 04 19:16
psydroidas for Intel I have seen them insert x86 assembly code into an xorg driver from one release to another so it would stop building on non-x86 architecturesJan 04 19:17
DaemonFC[m]Microsoft, early on, banished other web browsers from their store. Their policies don't work, the restrictions don't work, because they have no clout. They're trying to spend Disney Bucks at Caesar's Palace, like Rick said in Rick & Morty.Jan 04 19:17
psydroiduntil now it wouldn't matter because only integrated graphics have been available, but imagine them doing this kind of thing with their new discrete GPUs available on PCIE cardsJan 04 19:18
schestowitz__cheersJan 04 19:18
schestowitz__will mention in future partsJan 04 19:18
schestowitz__we have lots to showJan 04 19:18

schestowitz__hi jose__Jan 04 19:19
jose__hi there!Jan 04 19:19
DaemonFC[m]I think that Intel entering the market with GPUs is a good thing for the market. It's a duopoly right now where only AMD and Nvidia compete in the discrete GPU segment, and they only have to be good enough to try to outsell the other one, and Nvidia will never release an open source driver.Jan 04 19:19
psydroidso I would say Intel has been doing the Intel <3 Linux for longer than MS has been doing, but was just not seen as that, because the company was the so-called darling of the Linux worldJan 04 19:19
schestowitz__LF and OSDL fundingJan 04 19:20
schestowitz__for PRJan 04 19:20
schestowitz__and for openwashingJan 04 19:20
DaemonFC[m]More vendors means more choices. More choices mean better products and more competitive pricing, in theory.Jan 04 19:20
schestowitz__They had hired HondahlJan 04 19:20

schestowitz__DirkJan 04 19:20
schestowitz__dreckJan 04 19:20
DaemonFC[m]Microsoft's endgame is always that after they defeat the competition, they slink back into the comfortable spot of barely supporting that product, firing 90% of the developers, and letting it stagnate into another rotten mess full of security holes.Jan 04 19:21
DaemonFC[m]Internet Explorer 6 went on for more than half a decade before a new version was out....with tabs and some minor improvements to CSS.Jan 04 19:21
DaemonFC[m]IE 7 very much still went along with their previously stated policy of delivering new version with new versions of Windows, and making only small changes.Jan 04 19:22
DaemonFC[m]They misread what the users of web browsers wanted. They figured "Oh they want tabs. We'll give them Internet Explorer with tabs. That'll shut 'em up!".Jan 04 19:23
schestowitz__I have another article readyJan 04 19:24
DaemonFC[m]For years, they told people on the inside who were asked about tabs that you didn't need tabs because the Windows shell would eventually group the windows.Jan 04 19:24
schestowitz__if you don't mind ready quickly to catch typosJan 04 19:24
