●● IRC: #techrights @ FreeNode: Saturday, May 08, 2021 ●● ● May 08 [00:00] baronhk[m]1 schestowitz__: Almost all of the Mozilla developers who maintain Firefox and file the bugs for work pending are active on GitHub. [00:00] baronhk[m]1 This is truly disgusting. [00:00] *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving) [00:30] baronhk[m]1 They seem to have halted most of the work on the web platform. [00:30] baronhk[m]1 (In Gecko, I mean.) [00:30] baronhk[m]1 The new UI is pretty much unimportant. [00:32] schestowitz__ I don't follow.. [00:33] schestowitz__ active in the firefox sense? [00:33] schestowitz__ have they outsourced yet more to Microsoft? [00:36] baronhk[m]1 Trying to look into this. [00:36] baronhk[m]1 Firefox is not very active at the platform level anymore. [00:37] baronhk[m]1 There's not very many changes to Gecko this time around (Firefox 89) and even then, they had to delay it by a month. [00:38] baronhk[m]1 And the majority of the commits by line count delete stuff that they had previously implemented for compatibility with Chrome that was later rejected by other Chromium browsers and Apple, so wasn't guaranteed to be there anyway. All of these things were basically designed to help commit fingerprinting attacks on the user. [00:39] baronhk[m]1 They rushed to put in junk that there wasn't even consensus on, which was meant to spy on the user and be exposed to any website, purely because Google wanted it, and then backed off. [00:39] baronhk[m]1 It just seems to me to be an example of "negative work" because the opportunity cost is you can't improve some other part of the program because you're putting in things that shouldn't even be there, only to rip them out later. [00:48] baronhk[m]1 schestowitz__: They moved all their webcompat stuff to Github. [00:54] baronhk[m]1 schestowitz__: On the racism and IBM thing, I ran into a reddit where someone said he was a white South African man who got a scholarship available to "Africans" to a good school here in the US. [00:55] baronhk[m]1 Someone else came up and said "Wait until you actually get here and they find out you're white and they drum you out and take back your scholarships.". [00:56] baronhk[m]1 That's how universities certainly work, but it's not how Corporate America does. They say one thing and then you actually find 0 black people there or just the minimum to point a camera at and say "See, not racist. One Program Manager in Microsoft. Woohoo!". [00:57] baronhk[m]1 The state gave a partial scholarship to Mandy on the way out while I was just trying to close out the year and tell Immigration he still had F1 status, which I thought was hilarious. [00:57] baronhk[m]1 Because the grant amount was exactly the same amount of my court fine to run various state slush funds that they took from the Disorderly Conduct case. [00:58] baronhk[m]1 How weird is that? [00:58] baronhk[m]1 Anyway, I'm glad they need to keep the balance right so it doesn't look like whites are "too privileged" otherwise they wouldn't have done shit for him after fining the crap out of me. ● May 08 [01:00] baronhk[m]1 White privilege is dramatically overstated. I'm not going to deny the concept completely, but it's not as big of a thing as people say it is, and when you gain something, you lose it someplace else. [01:01] baronhk[m]1 The state is so busy trying to appease the black caucus in the legislature that the only way their "reform" bills could possibly get worse is if they just blindly repealed the entire criminal code without reading it in the middle of the night with no debate, like they passed the other 5 laws. [01:01] schestowitz__ baronhk[m]1: thanks for the headsup [01:01] schestowitz__ it's an ongoing problem [01:01] schestowitz__ even with their docs [01:02] baronhk[m]1 They passed one called healthcare reform the other day that's really sweet. It costs $15.3 million a year, provides people with no healthcare, and creates commissions and panels which aren't actually authorized to change anything. [01:02] baronhk[m]1 The state! ^ MinceR [01:02] MinceR your tax dollars at work [01:04] baronhk[m]1 MinceR: The panels are authorized to bitch and moan and blame white people for everything, and collect salaries. [01:04] baronhk[m]1 The Lies and Wreckage-ciliation Commission. [01:05] baronhk[m]1 And since the employment in Chicago in the black communities is 40% unemployment and 60% burger flipping and hair salons, guess whose money pays the salaries. [01:06] baronhk[m]1 It's fucking awful down there. Don't go there. If you think I'm lying, look at Youtube videos of the slums of Johannesburg and then compare them with drives through South Chicago. [01:07] baronhk[m]1 You wouldn't notice anything different except the style of the traffic lights. [01:08] baronhk[m]1 This Mozilla/GitHub situation is clearly a piecemeal migration that will get there eventually unless Mozilla collapses first. [01:08] baronhk[m]1 Most of the work seems to be removing things it could do before and window dressing. [01:09] baronhk[m]1 Although Proton-UI seems like it's actually better than relying on native look and feel on Windows and Linux anyway, but what boggles me is they did extra work for the Mac when they could just use their new self-rendered menus and stuff and share code. [01:09] baronhk[m]1 They look fine, in general. Available in Light and Dark.

[01:21] baronhk[m]1 They were blaming Trump and the post office, but they didn't even mail them until 9 days (5 business days) before the election and then they said hey here, get these 460,000+ ballots out to everyone. [01:21] baronhk[m]1 That was my county. So it turned into a fucking catastrophe where the same idiots that did that shit said "Why is everyone panicking and trying to vote HERE!?". [01:22] baronhk[m]1 So a county where almost every official is a Democrat fucked up the election and theoretically to the benefit of Trump and their own opponents.
