DaemonFC[m]	mjg59: Not only am I seeing no evidence of how effective the "vaccines" are, but roughly 45 days in, the number of new infections reported nationwide is still setting new daily records.	Jan 13 01:11
DaemonFC[m]	That could be a function of the fact that they're vastly exaggerating how much vaccine is being produced (won't cite numbers, just talk about vaccines as if you could walk down to the CVS and get one now, even though you can't).	Jan 13 01:13
DaemonFC[m]	The fact that nobody is talking facts and figures here tells you that they're only trying to avoid panic and that the situation is worse than they will speak of.	Jan 13 01:14
DaemonFC[m]	I'm hoping that the federal government doesn't just stay the course of dishonesty and keeping the public in the dark, but it doesn't look good.	Jan 13 01:15
DaemonFC[m]	Joe Biden backed Trump up about how there's "nothing wrong with the process" that led to these "vaccines".	Jan 13 01:16
DaemonFC[m]	He has to, right? It's easy politics. You don't have a choice now except to hope for the best with what you've got.	Jan 13 01:16

DaemonFC[m]	With what's unfolding in California, consider that the new variant of the virus might be the reason why they now report 40,000-50,000 new cases per day and perhaps 500-600 deaths.	Jan 13 01:21

mjg59	DaemonFC[m]: For the most part, outside healthcare professionals, the people most likely to catch covid are not the ones being vaccinated	Jan 13 01:49
mjg59	It's largely initially going to those at greatest risk of death if infected	Jan 13 01:49
mjg59	But at a point where spread is not well controlled, yes, you'll continue to see cases increase even as people get vaccinated	Jan 13 01:51
DaemonFC[m]	The vaccine should really be going to the people more at risk of being infected and passing it along to others.	Jan 13 02:03
DaemonFC[m]	Because there's a multiplier effect and it will ultimately lead to more people dying in the end.	Jan 13 02:03
DaemonFC[m]	If they doesn't get the vaccine.	Jan 13 02:03
DaemonFC[m]	Giving it to some shut in who is 90 years old is frankly a wasted dose when you could give it to a frontline worker.	Jan 13 02:03
*gry (~test@unaffiliated/gryllida) has joined #techrights	Jan 13 02:05
DaemonFC[m]	Also, it will wear off faster even if you can somehow argue that the 90 year old shut in isn't a wasted dose.	Jan 13 02:05
DaemonFC[m]	Their immune system isn't great and if immunity was going to last a few years in a younger person, it might be gone in several months in someone very old.	Jan 13 02:06
DaemonFC[m]	This is yet another example of a limited public resource going to people who vote more consistently.	Jan 13 02:06
DaemonFC[m]	It's sort of like Social Security giving money to people who don't need it while the government lets other people become unemployed and homeless with no money at all. It's a political decision. Not resources allocated to where they ought to go.	Jan 13 02:08
DaemonFC[m]	When Social Security was new, old people lived about 4-5 years on the program, on average.	Jan 13 02:09
DaemonFC[m]	They weren't a generation who usually had a huge war chest built up for retirement and lived for 30 years getting a Social Security check as well.	Jan 13 02:09
DaemonFC[m]	Now the tables have turned, and, for the most part, the elderly have more savings and income than any other group, and need the help less.	Jan 13 02:10
DaemonFC[m]	But the politicians have gotten them used to getting a bunch of stuff, so good luck with that.	Jan 13 02:10
DaemonFC[m]	So now they get all the vaccine doses too, even though COVID would cut their lives short by a year or two and they're far less likely to get it, as you mentioned, and far less likely to spread it to dozens or hundreds of other people.	Jan 13 02:11
DaemonFC[m]	By allocating the doses differently, we could break chains of infection that lead to all these deaths.	Jan 13 02:15

schestowitz__	good	Jan 13 12:36
schestowitz__	I also clarified we'll bypass DNS soon	Jan 13 12:36
schestowitz__	I passed a document of a manual I have for this	Jan 13 12:36
vZS1_2	I use the terminal though. And I've got an unhealthy amount of fonts installed	Jan 13 12:36
schestowitz__	securely, local cp	Jan 13 12:36
vZS1_2	So almost everything renders for me	Jan 13 12:36
schestowitz__	it's not about fonts, though	Jan 13 12:37
schestowitz__	iirc, fonts that lack glyphs for some char will have fallbacks in other generic sets	Jan 13 12:37
schestowitz__	the issue I can only reproduce on one instance of xchat but not xchat-gnome	Jan 13 12:37
schestowitz__	also, the python script we use to render logs isn't coping well, but...	Jan 13 12:37
schestowitz__	I want to see what happens the next night, as many a mishmash of enodings yesterday confuses it, leading to a fallback charset that doesn't cope with the 'correct' encoding	Jan 13 12:38

vZS1_2	You don't want things to bleed out of the scope of a CID, if you can help it.	Jan 13 12:48

vZS1_2	A: Use a browser with native IPFS support	Jan 13 12:49

vZS1_2	B: use HTTP gateway hrefs for the CIDs	Jan 13 12:49

schestowitz__	a simple portray of a politician cannot be made recognisable	Jan 13 12:54
schestowitz__	also, those algorithms make very poor use of the charset	Jan 13 12:54
schestowitz__	as with 78x78 pixels you can do a lot, even monochrome	Jan 13 12:55
schestowitz__	so surely you could figure out how to get a finer resolution with complex unicode	Jan 13 12:55

mjg59: Not only am I seeing no evidence of how effective the "vaccines" are, but roughly 45 days in, the number of new infections reported nationwide is still setting new daily records.

Jan 13 01:11

DaemonFC[m]

That could be a function of the fact that they're vastly exaggerating how much vaccine is being produced (won't cite numbers, just talk about vaccines as if you could walk down to the CVS and get one now, even though you can't).

Jan 13 01:13

DaemonFC[m]

The fact that nobody is talking facts and figures here tells you that they're only trying to avoid panic and that the situation is worse than they will speak of.

Jan 13 01:14

DaemonFC[m]

I'm hoping that the federal government doesn't just stay the course of dishonesty and keeping the public in the dark, but it doesn't look good.

Jan 13 01:15

DaemonFC[m]

Joe Biden backed Trump up about how there's "nothing wrong with the process" that led to these "vaccines".

Jan 13 01:16

DaemonFC[m]

He has to, right? It's easy politics. You don't have a choice now except to hope for the best with what you've got.

With what's unfolding in California, consider that the new variant of the virus might be the reason why they now report 40,000-50,000 new cases per day and perhaps 500-600 deaths.

I thought they were a "blue state" with "educated people" who "believe in science" and therefore were going to fare better.

mjg59

DaemonFC[m]: For the most part, outside healthcare professionals, the people most likely to catch covid are not the ones being vaccinated

Jan 13 01:49

mjg59

It's largely initially going to those at greatest risk of death if infected

Jan 13 01:49

mjg59

But at a point where spread is not well controlled, yes, you'll continue to see cases increase even as people get vaccinated

Jan 13 01:51

DaemonFC[m]

The vaccine should really be going to the people more at risk of being infected and passing it along to others.

Jan 13 02:03

DaemonFC[m]

Because there's a multiplier effect and it will ultimately lead to more people dying in the end.

Jan 13 02:03

DaemonFC[m]

If they doesn't get the vaccine.

Jan 13 02:03

DaemonFC[m]

Giving it to some shut in who is 90 years old is frankly a wasted dose when you could give it to a frontline worker.

Jan 13 02:03

*gry (~test@unaffiliated/gryllida) has joined #techrights

Jan 13 02:05

DaemonFC[m]

Also, it will wear off faster even if you can somehow argue that the 90 year old shut in isn't a wasted dose.

Jan 13 02:05

DaemonFC[m]

Their immune system isn't great and if immunity was going to last a few years in a younger person, it might be gone in several months in someone very old.

Jan 13 02:06

DaemonFC[m]

This is yet another example of a limited public resource going to people who vote more consistently.

Jan 13 02:06

DaemonFC[m]

It's sort of like Social Security giving money to people who don't need it while the government lets other people become unemployed and homeless with no money at all. It's a political decision. Not resources allocated to where they ought to go.

Jan 13 02:08

DaemonFC[m]

When Social Security was new, old people lived about 4-5 years on the program, on average.

Jan 13 02:09

DaemonFC[m]

They weren't a generation who usually had a huge war chest built up for retirement and lived for 30 years getting a Social Security check as well.

Jan 13 02:09

DaemonFC[m]

Now the tables have turned, and, for the most part, the elderly have more savings and income than any other group, and need the help less.

Jan 13 02:10

DaemonFC[m]

But the politicians have gotten them used to getting a bunch of stuff, so good luck with that.

Jan 13 02:10

DaemonFC[m]

So now they get all the vaccine doses too, even though COVID would cut their lives short by a year or two and they're far less likely to get it, as you mentioned, and far less likely to spread it to dozens or hundreds of other people.

Jan 13 02:11

DaemonFC[m]

By allocating the doses differently, we could break chains of infection that lead to all these deaths.

a friend asked me today

Jan 13 12:35

schestowitz__

about the bot

Jan 13 12:35

schestowitz__

does it render OK for you in your IRC client?

Jan 13 12:35

schestowitz__

I know some struggle, encoding dependent

Jan 13 12:35

schestowitz__

also, we floated the possibility of putting tuxmachines in ipfs

Jan 13 12:35

vZS1_2

The little unicode bars from the bandwidth stats?

Jan 13 12:35

schestowitz__

yes

Jan 13 12:36

vZS1_2

Looks just fine to me

Jan 13 12:36

schestowitz__

good

Jan 13 12:36

schestowitz__

I also clarified we'll bypass DNS soon

Jan 13 12:36

schestowitz__

I passed a document of a manual I have for this

Jan 13 12:36

vZS1_2

I use the terminal though. And I've got an unhealthy amount of fonts installed

Jan 13 12:36

schestowitz__

securely, local cp

Jan 13 12:36

vZS1_2

So almost everything renders for me

Jan 13 12:36

schestowitz__

it's not about fonts, though

Jan 13 12:37

schestowitz__

iirc, fonts that lack glyphs for some char will have fallbacks in other generic sets

Jan 13 12:37

schestowitz__

the issue I can only reproduce on one instance of xchat but not xchat-gnome

Jan 13 12:37

schestowitz__

also, the python script we use to render logs isn't coping well, but...

Jan 13 12:37

schestowitz__

I want to see what happens the next night, as many a mishmash of enodings yesterday confuses it, leading to a fallback charset that doesn't cope with the 'correct' encoding

Jan 13 12:38

Re: tuxmachines and ipfs. I can help design stuff like I did for the TR things.

Jan 13 12:38

vZS1_2: would there be interest in a site like TM among ipfs enthusiasts?

Jan 13 12:39

vZS1_2

I don't know. Ask them. I mostly work in isolation.

Jan 13 12:40

vZS1_2

Every now and then I get grumpy at devs.

Jan 13 12:40

vZS1_2

I do know a few people that use IPFS.

Jan 13 12:40

vZS1_2

So I can just share with them

Jan 13 12:40

vZS1_2

I think you'd be better off just telling your TM readers about it than IPFS people in particular.

Jan 13 12:42

vZS1_2

When you have local pins, you access stuff a lot faster (and you actually have it in local storage)

Jan 13 12:43

If you serve HTML files, you can even include JS, as long as that JS is kept scoped to the reader's browser or external API calls only.)

Jan 13 12:46

vZS1_2

API calls that don't require any private tokens

Jan 13 12:46

schestowitz__

I noticed that..

Jan 13 12:47

schestowitz__

even external css is an issue

Jan 13 12:47

schestowitz__

esp. for http/https anomalies

Jan 13 12:47

schestowitz__

so self-contained pages are better as well as possible for CSS

Jan 13 12:47

vZS1_2

Yep

Jan 13 12:47

vZS1_2

You don't want things to bleed out of the scope of a CID, if you can help it.

Jan 13 12:48

schestowitz__

maybe I should make the irc logs self-contained for CSS, but those would still omit images associated with the CSS

Jan 13 12:48

schestowitz__

though the css does not add any actual information to these logs

Jan 13 12:48

vZS1_2

There's nothing stopping you from just pulling CSS from another CID

Jan 13 12:48

vZS1_2

They're all just files, at the end of the day.

Jan 13 12:49

schestowitz__

but not sure how it would work in a browser

Jan 13 12:49

vZS1_2

You'd have to either

Jan 13 12:49

schestowitz__

and if the browser will know how to fetch such urls

Jan 13 12:49

vZS1_2

A: Use a browser with native IPFS support

Jan 13 12:49

schestowitz__

I guess it would involve hardcoding ipfs.io

Jan 13 12:49

vZS1_2

B: use HTTP gateway hrefs for the CIDs

Jan 13 12:49

schestowitz__

and then the CID becomes dependent on that one single gateway

Jan 13 12:49

schestowitz__

vZS1_2: beats the purpose

Jan 13 12:50

vZS1_2

Yeah

Jan 13 12:50

schestowitz__

hardcoding gateways

Jan 13 12:50

schestowitz__

that's not ipfs anymore

Jan 13 12:50

schestowitz__

it's just a pseudi ipfs

Jan 13 12:50

schestowitz__

*do

Jan 13 12:50

vZS1_2

Yep

Jan 13 12:50

vZS1_2

a pure-ipfs solution wouldn't use any HTTP gateways

Jan 13 12:51

vZS1_2

so you'd have to use a local ipfs daemon to grab things for you

Jan 13 12:51

Months ago I experimented with tools that convert images to ascii/unicode

Jan 13 12:53

vZS1_2

Idk anything about gemini

Jan 13 12:53

schestowitz__

without any colour added the results are awful

Jan 13 12:53

schestowitz__

esp. for 78 chars width

Jan 13 12:53

schestowitz__

I installed some command line tools for it in Debian

Jan 13 12:53

schestowitz__

a simple portray of a politician cannot be made recognisable

Jan 13 12:54

schestowitz__

also, those algorithms make very poor use of the charset

Jan 13 12:54

schestowitz__

as with 78x78 pixels you can do a lot, even monochrome

Jan 13 12:55

schestowitz__

so surely you could figure out how to get a finer resolution with complex unicode

Jan 13 12:55

schestowitz__

then produce something on par with 150x150 in email-type widths... but without any actual pixels

Jan 13 12:55

hmm, parler became that, i agree

CrystalMath

but i disagree about gab

Jan 13 13:22

CrystalMath

or at least, i just found gab

Jan 13 13:22

CrystalMath

so i didn't see them act this way yet

Jan 13 13:22

CrystalMath

i see that there are anti-Trump people there

Jan 13 13:22

gab is different over time

Jan 13 13:23

they're hands-off

esp. when it's the "white" mob

Jan 13 13:27

well i wouldn't want them to have double standards

Jan 13 13:40

schestowitz__

like 13 years ago

Jan 13 13:40

schestowitz__

by funding those to maintain an existing law on matrimony

Jan 13 13:40

schestowitz__

he later said he had changed his mind on it

Jan 13 13:40

schestowitz__

his view is very prevalent btw, if not in the US (in 2021) then around the world

Jan 13 13:41

CrystalMath

well either way that's not attracting me, an anarcho-individualist

Jan 13 13:41

schestowitz__

should US companies top hiring from like the majority of countries where almost everyone agrees marriage is only for man and woman?

Jan 13 13:41

schestowitz__

cultural differences aren't respected, and this is then spun as tolerance and diversity

Jan 13 13:41

schestowitz__

"if you don't agree with my culture, you're ban" <- new definition of tolerance

Jan 13 13:42

schestowitz__

diversity = I ban everybody who does not agree with me

Jan 13 13:42

CrystalMath

my opinion is that marriage needs to be abolished

Jan 13 13:42

CrystalMath

which i guess is considered far-left

Jan 13 13:43

schestowitz__

why left?

Jan 13 13:44

CrystalMath

well it has been a historically far left opinion, by people such as Rosa Luxembourg

Jan 13 13:44

schestowitz__

I have a friend divorced twice who thinks the same as you

Jan 13 13:44

schestowitz__

but it's hard to date woman when you adopt such a view

Jan 13 13:44

CrystalMath

well, by anti-marriage i mean, replacing marriage with the concept of free love

Jan 13 13:45

Jan 13 14:10

tuxmachines signups are even worse because when opened up we get endless apam

Jan 13 14:11

schestowitz__

same for wiki in techrights

Jan 13 14:11

schestowitz__

like 50 spams per day

Jan 13 14:11

schestowitz__

sometimes overrunning the site to the point where the more practical solution is to restore from the nightly backup and set new users to blocked

Jan 13 14:12

schestowitz__

sometimes spam can come at numbers like thousands and the GUI is not enough

Jan 13 14:13

schestowitz__

or mysql queries

Jan 13 14:13

schestowitz__

so it becomes like a security issue or data compromise

Jan 13 14:13

schestowitz__

they pollute the DB with crap

Jan 13 14:13

schestowitz__

to the point the data in the DB is crap

Jan 13 14:13

schestowitz__

and to fix it you need to restore from a recent backup

Jan 13 14:13

schestowitz__

not a security issue, but a PITA

Jan 13 14:13

schestowitz__

so if the intent is to cause data loss by obscuring the legit data with spam, that can work

Jan 13 14:14

schestowitz__

distributed denial of data :-)

DB pollution can be considered a security issue

Jan 13 14:15

vZS1_2

Depends how broad your definition of "security" is.

Jan 13 14:15

vZS1_2

One of the first things I do with my clients is settle on a definition of "security". Saves misunderstandings, down the line.

Jan 13 14:16

vZS1_2

I avoid saying security and say security policy instead. It's more practical and gets them thinking the right way.

Jan 13 14:17

vZS1_2

Then you can just say X, Y, Z in or out of the policy.

Jan 13 14:38

I had a client that racked up a massive clown bill because they had about 3 million rogue API calls

was the mouse a security threat?

Jan 13 20:59

It was seriously messed up.

Jan 13 20:59

could people hijack your PC by contacting the mouse from a nearby apartment?

Jan 13 20:59

schestowitz__

if so, avoid BT mouse

Jan 13 20:59

DaemonFC[m]

Uh, the release notes mention several specific bug fixes including mouse disconnect problems.

Jan 13 20:59

DaemonFC[m]

And some security problems fixed, but not which ones.

Jan 13 20:59

schestowitz__

mouse disconnect

Jan 13 20:59

schestowitz__

why would a mouse not be physically connected?

Jan 13 21:00

schestowitz__

do you use a projector at home?

Jan 13 21:00

DaemonFC[m]

No, but I don't like having cords and cables going every which way.

it's a mouse

Jan 13 21:01

GNUmoon

schestowitz__ : you're welcome for the link.

Jan 13 21:01

DaemonFC[m]

Yes, but they forget to mention that the only one seriously contesting the Speaker election was a key Madigan ally for years.

Jan 13 21:01

schestowitz__

and I don't need to worry about batteries, and stuttering, and drivers 'auto-updates'

Jan 13 21:01

schestowitz__

[21:00] <DaemonFC[m]> Plus, the laptop only has two USB ports.

Jan 13 21:01

DaemonFC[m]

So they get the same type of person with all the same powers as Madigan, and then Madigan goes to prison and they don't have to have him in the spotlight as Speaker when he does.

Jan 13 21:01

schestowitz__

USB splitters are cheaper than a BT mouse

Jan 13 21:02

schestowitz__

so number of USB ports isn't the main issue

Jan 13 21:02

schestowitz__

also, buy a proper PC

Jan 13 21:02

schestowitz__

2 USB ports is too little

schestowitz__: The Census said this morning that it will stand down and refuse to exclude undocumented immigrants from the apportionment totals.

So his plan to exclude undocumented immigrants to shift several more House seats and electoral votes to red states seems to have fizzled out.

DaemonFC[m]

It's generally unknown how that would have affected apportionment, but I believe probably at least 7 or 8 seats/EVs would go to red states if that had happened.

Jan 13 21:05

DaemonFC[m]

It's already far too easy for them to have outsized representation in the House due to the fact that it's harder to gain more seats each time your population grows.

Jan 13 21:05

DaemonFC[m]

This would have made it possible for the Republicans to take over 60% of the House seats with about half the popular vote.

Jan 13 21:06

DaemonFC[m]

They win one election in your state, you never get rid of them again, because they rig it up so they have a big majority even if they lose the popular vote.
