Look in git/ci/. Just grep for "azure".

schestowitz

Did they add support for it?

schestowitz

or does that come into the core?

schestowitz

I know some Microsoft shill now 'develop' git

vZS1_2

That's the CI they use.

schestowitz

from shithub

schestowitz

but it's not developed on Microsoft servers

vZS1_2

It's not a part of git itslef but git development uses Azure.

vZS1_2

It's in the repo. They can't hide it.

schestowitz

all of them?

schestowitz

or just some?

vZS1_2

The git CI pipeline uses Azure for the upstream.

vZS1_2

So that would be all of them

schestowitz

but it's not eventually stored there

vZS1_2

Directly or indirectly, doesn't matter.

schestowitz

it does kind of matter

schestowitz

when they release git they give a github URL

schestowitz

i.e. Microsoft

schestowitz

that's an old issue

vZS1_2

I'm just saying that Git has a dependency on Azure now for its CI.

schestowitz

and that some of them were bought by Microsoft as part of the attack on Git

vZS1_2

It's been like this for a while.

schestowitz

yeah

vZS1_2

But most people don't actually look at source code of the tools they use

schestowitz

I am aware

schestowitz

tell me when they want to put Linux AND git themselves on shithub

vZS1_2

It's worse than being on GitHub

vZS1_2

Because GitHub can be used as a pull-only mirror

vZS1_2

Git has a _dependency_ on Azure.

vZS1_2

No Azure, Git CI breaks.

vZS1_2

That's the point I'm trying to get across

techrights-bot

I'm told (and am being shown) that #microsoft is increasingly taking over #git itself, having taken over the attack on Git (E.E.E.), known as #github #azure (surveillance) is now plugged into Git as CI Maybe time to dump Git soon?

some will adopt it for "difference"

vZS1_2

vZS1_2

Is what I'm trying to say here

vZS1_2

Because the world will stay on Git for a good while

vZS1_2

Jan 15 13:25

Jan 15 13:25

What I was saying is that the CI they use is Azure. So when you send a patch, even if you don't interact with Azure in any way, that patch gets tested via Azure.

Among other things it ends cash bail (although judges can remand a defendant facing violent felony charges), and requires all police in the state to wear body cameras, and ends collective bargaining with police unions on any topic but wages.

DaemonFC[m]

The police unions were understandably pissed and tried to stop it, which is why it was introduced, passed, and signed within 2 days.

schestowitz

so, how much richer did the American super-rich get in the past 4 years?

DaemonFC[m]

It also ends "prison gerrymandering".

DaemonFC[m]

Under the new state law, prisoners will be counted in a future Census based on their last address before going to prison.

DaemonFC[m]

Which is a clever way to take some representation away from Republicans.

Jan 15 15:55

DaemonFC[m]

If you have a prison with 20,000-30,000 prisoners there in a county it can really skew the maps.

Jan 15 15:55

DaemonFC[m]

It also provides that if someone has less than 4 months remaining on a sentence, that they have to be released to serve the rest of it on probation.

CrystalMath

schestowitz: in the past year, a lot

CrystalMath

thanks to lockdowns

DaemonFC[m]

The state's looking to cut the budget and give Democrats more seats in government in a police reform bill, but it does make a lot of changes that will make the police more accountable.

DaemonFC[m]

Such as ending qualified immunity.

DaemonFC[m]

I don't see why we couldn't have an open debate on this other than that police unions would have gone to the public and misled them and lied to them about what was in it.

Jan 15 15:59

DaemonFC[m]

And now it's on the law books and "deal with it".

Jan 15 15:59

DaemonFC[m]

Oh, it also bans new purchases of military hardware for the police, of certain types.

Jan 15 16:00

DaemonFC[m]

No more grenade launchers and tanks, for example.

Jan 15 16:00

DaemonFC[m]

I think they passed it quickly in part because Trump could still auction off "surplus" military hardware from Iraq and Afghanistan and the legislature didn't want that finding its way into Illinois police departments.

Jan 15 16:01

CrystalMath

the police need to understand that they must risk their lives, it's their job; they can't just kill people out of fear

Jan 15 16:01

DaemonFC[m]

There's one Chicago suburb that had an MRAP (an IED-resistant vehicle) and they put it in city parades until they got a new mayor who was like "Nope, not doing that anymore.".

Nobody made them smash up businesses and take their stuff, most of which you don't even need.

DaemonFC[m]

And the people doing this are total losers.

psydroid

do any of you have information and perhaps links about NTFS corruption bugs going back 20-30 years ago?

DaemonFC[m]

Not only do they not work and not pay taxes and not only are they living in some welfare nest somewhere, it's not even enough.

DaemonFC[m]

They have to go out and ruin businesses that are hiring people and paying taxes, and vandalize public property that people who work and pay taxes are going to have to pay to replace.

<psydroid "do any of you have information a"> Running chkdsk /f has always been risky.

Jan 15 17:09

DaemonFC[m]

There were corner cases where it corrupted NTFS in Windows 2000 and XP. It's never been entirely safe to try to repair a file system with it.

Jan 15 17:09

psydroid

Windows 2000 basically ate a 2 GB partition containing my documents for university

DaemonFC[m]

Ext3 will eventually hit the year 2038 bug, I guess.

psydroid

this was what triggered me to get rid of it everywhere

DaemonFC[m]

Not really a bug. It was pretty short sighted to make a new file system in 2000 that had a limit of 2038.

DaemonFC[m]

I was running into articles talking about Microsoft beginning to back off Microsoft Account login insistence with Windows 10.

Jan 15 17:12

DaemonFC[m]

They moved too far too fast. Not everyone wants a Microsoft Account. It's not even very useful because the only thing that doesn't work without one is the Windows Store, which people ignore anyway.

North Korea, the Philippines, the People's Republic of China, Vietnam.... I mean, those are the norm.

Half the world

DaemonFC[m]

Here in Illinois, the state has been historically plagued by public corruption for most of its existence, which got particularly bad in the mid to late 20th century.

schestowitz

US=4% of the world

DaemonFC[m]

Mike Madigan was a holdover from that era who is finally out of the spotlight and has no more political power than any other state representative (for now...might be in prison soon).

schestowitz

Maybe the corruption just became more visible

Jan 15 17:38

schestowitz

in the 'olden days' journalism lacked access to the same data and sources

Jan 15 17:38

DaemonFC[m]

I'm not sure what to say about what's going on right now. I think the corruption is letting up, but the debt burden of waste, fraud, abuse, and politicians making promises the state could never pay up on is going to ruin us anyway.

schestowitz

debt is a confidence thing

schestowitz

the belief one can pay back

schestowitz

so you hand over debt

schestowitz

but...

DaemonFC[m]

The Police Reform Bill has finally more or less broken the police unions as a major power in state politics. So I would call that "less corrupt" than before.

schestowitz

we used to have monarchs

schestowitz

in a lot of ways we used to be worse off

DaemonFC[m]

But their pensions are still too large and they can negotiate for more money and benefits.

schestowitz

we just need to strive for transparency, it's the last thing people in positions of power want

DaemonFC[m]

schestowitz: I'm thinking that the end of Qualified Immunity in the reform bill and the Janus decision might cause cops to start backing away from the unions.

schestowitz

cops are used

schestowitz

and they are used by the rich

schestowitz

they pick up some of the same thugs they sent abroad to kill people

schestowitz

and whose mind they either ruined

DaemonFC[m]

They can still get a union rep to deal with things as far as their misconduct goes with the city employment, but they're completely exposed to lawsuits from the public now in a personal capacity, and there will be nothing they can do about the body cameras recording all of it.

schestowitz

or hand-picked based on obedience and desperation

schestowitz

anyway, bbl

schestowitz

it is kind of OT anyway...

DaemonFC[m]

Do you figure that personal exposure to misconduct lawsuits will change much of anything?

DaemonFC[m]

Up until now, they never had to worry. The city sells crooked cop bonds and just pays off the victims.

DaemonFC[m]

I think they'll have some skin in the game if the first thing that gets taken is their bank account, possessions, and pension.

Jan 15 17:43

DaemonFC[m]

True it won't amount to the millions the city has to pay out, but losing all their own stuff first may put them on better behavior.

I never opened the door

the police never spoke to me

I once gave them a testimony

and they dropped me off near the scene of a crime I was witness to

nothing to do with me

or bug doors

psydroid

I was reading through the first response and things look even worse than I thought they were

schestowitz

most back doors from big companies meet that criterion

schestowitz

their so-called 'mathematicians' (flunkies of math grads) figure out how to make BAD maths

schestowitz

and then come up with bad crypto schemes that only seem decent on the surface

schestowitz

or are OK but badly implemented

psydroid

Not that I am a big fan of Google, but "shipping is a feature" must be the worst of Microsoft criteria for software

schestowitz

then they work with companies like Microsoft

schestowitz

to help them 'enhance security'

schestowitz

they mean national security

schestowitz

i.e. back doors

The encryption itself is very clearly not backdoored

mjg59

If any backdoor exists, it's at the UI level

schestowitz

you score own goals when you talk

mjg59

But that doesn't help you if all you have is an encrypted disk

how can we know it does what it claims to do without source code being available?

*DVulgaris has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)

MinceR

like the settings they say they'll just ignore if you're not running "Enterprise"

mjg59

The same way you know what it does if you *do* have source code available

MinceR

and like the settings they say they'll just turn back on anyway

mjg59

You inspect its behaviour

MinceR

microshit is so loyal to its users^Whostages

MinceR

almost as loyal as they are to the NSA

mjg59

Sufficiently competent backdoors in the source code are harder to find than just watching what the code does

MinceR

oh, now we're at the "it's useless to have the source code anyway" level

i recall reading a portion of a (iirc) microsuck/fuckmicrosoft article, called (iirc, something like) "backdoors, hidden backdoors, really hidden backdoors, really really hidden backdoors"

While he was in office it worked out quite nicely for him which is why he never moved to terminate the contract.

yeag

Jan 15 22:30

schestowitz

I put the numbers together, and compared to the US, for example, well... nowhere as bad

Jan 15 22:30

schestowitz

neither socially nor financially

Jan 15 22:30

schestowitz

the US society is deeply divided and heavily armed

DaemonFC[m]

Well, on the how screwed are we report, the UK is pretty screwed too.

schestowitz

we saw last year it's always near boiling point

schestowitz

no riots here or plots to dethrone the authorities

DaemonFC[m]

The lockdown that's going on there will eventually be required here thanks to that damned mutant strain.

DaemonFC[m]

Or eventually we'll have 9,000 people every day dying instead of like 4,000.

schestowitz

you just have no lockdown

schestowitz

to conceal the severity of things

DaemonFC[m]

Yeah, they've accepted that the shit lands where it lands.

schestowitz

but the longer you wait, the more you will pay

DaemonFC[m]

Nice, right?

schestowitz

financially we can still pay people to not work

schestowitz

for now

schestowitz

not sure for how much longer

DaemonFC[m]

schestowitz: I'm expecting about a million more dead here by the end of this year.

schestowitz

by March

schestowitz

inc. people with cancers that go undetected

DaemonFC[m]

The vaccine rollout is a complete joke.

schestowitz

plus obesity, depression etc.

schestowitz

DaemonFC[m]: it's not to them

schestowitz

THEY MAKE LOADS OF MONEY

schestowitz

at all levels

schestowitz

kickbacks, sales, orders...

schestowitz

politicians selling "hope"

schestowitz

"change'

DaemonFC[m]

Lots of money, very little product going out.

schestowitz

"change for the public"

schestowitz

"here's a dime"

DaemonFC[m]

Who knows if you're better off getting it or not getting it?

schestowitz

"use this change wisely... buy rice"

schestowitz

covid is international

schestowitz

at some point poor countries will stop exporting their crops too

schestowitz

they look after their own people first

schestowitz

freight is already slowing and expensive

schestowitz

not many shipping cars and oil around

schestowitz

so the cost of food shipping can go up

schestowitz

fuel for boats is cheaper, but they cannot make full use of capacity

schestowitz

and it doesn't scale when many vessels you have just part at the bay/port doing nothing

schestowitz

at work we track vessels

schestowitz

for protection of undersea cables and stuff

DaemonFC[m]

schestowitz: Yeah, and the government keeps this insane ethanol blending mandate going on through this.

schestowitz

one could collect data from the DB on number of vessels in motion

schestowitz

I am sure it decreased

DaemonFC[m]

Ethanol was never going to be the replacement for fossil fuels. It's just a boon for corn states.

schestowitz

yeah, corrupt

schestowitz

gates profits from it

schestowitz

schestowitz

taxpayers subsidise Gates

DaemonFC[m]

<schestowitz "one could collect data from the "> The USS Nimitz being told to go home then back to Iran.

schestowitz

in yet another scam

DaemonFC[m]

Who knows. May have to start a war in the last 3 days of Trump's term.

schestowitz

it won't work

schestowitz

the generals will veto

schestowitz

he has no sway left

DaemonFC[m]

You think that the generals would refuse at this point?

schestowitz

if you asked me 2 weeks ago, I'd say that yes, it's a risk

schestowitz

now he needs to be impeached at least for the record

schestowitz

and not acquitted

*huggi has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)

DaemonFC[m]

The impeachment can wait for 3-4 months.

schestowitz

maybe another reason to start a way

DaemonFC[m]

But they're so stupid they'll get in their own way and then the Republicans who voted to throw out our election will just vote it down.

schestowitz

to delay the impeachment pipeline

MinceR

maybe they need a bit of motivation in the form of another siege

schestowitz

it'll happen

schestowitz

maybe on Jan20th

schestowitz

I think they should do a small ceremony indoors

schestowitz

the secret services and all are armed

DaemonFC[m]

I agree we need everyone on record because the people who support this are going to vote Republican no matter what.

schestowitz

and many are with the fascists

schestowitz

it's too risk, could be another jfk

schestowitz

the loons are already detishising it

DaemonFC[m]

The people who don't are going to be put off if their Senator can't take a stand against Trump even after he's already gone.

schestowitz

*too risky

DaemonFC[m]

schestowitz: If they want the next Democratic president (Harris) to win 2024 in a sweep of like 40+ states, they would kill Biden.

DaemonFC[m]

They'd be smarter to just wait him out and vote in 2024.

DaemonFC[m]

But they're not smart people.

DaemonFC[m]

And it only takes a single nutcase.

DaemonFC[m]

They won't defeat Biden with violence.

Jan 15 22:53

schestowitz

many abortions might be fetuses that would never survive as babies

schestowitz

or have severe defects

DaemonFC[m]

Jews are evil monsters who are robbing us blind with the banks and they're also God's chosen people who we need to send billions of dollars to, and gee wouldn't it be nice to tour the Holy Land.

schestowitz

if that's still P-C term to use

DaemonFC[m]

Maybe a stop over to the abortion clinic/dispensary/gay bar.

schestowitz

DaemonFC[m]: the theory and the paradox goes like this:

schestowitz

"Jews are scum and vastly inferior"

schestowitz

"but they also control everything"

schestowitz

if they're vastly inferior and all, the latter cannot follow

DaemonFC[m]

Yeah, how does that work?

schestowitz

so the suggestions go like, must be inferiority complex

Jan 15 22:56

DaemonFC[m]

And if they've really managed to control things so tightly that it's interfering with the person's life, then they're diabolical but the person making the accusation would be of inferior intellect at least.

Jan 15 22:56

schestowitz

there are all those "too few jews in the NBA"

Jan 15 22:56

schestowitz

which is to highlight the idea that "too many jewish bankers" stuff is BS

schestowitz

but you're talking about crowds like GAB and Parler here

DaemonFC[m]

"too many jewish lawyers" too

schestowitz

they also believe lots of other nonsense

DaemonFC[m]

I've hired three lawyers in the last two years and none of them were Jews.

DaemonFC[m]

How does that work?

schestowitz

if you receive higher edu, you would work as something that pays better

maybe they should also say "too many blacks working in [manual labour job]"

Jan 15 22:58

Because if someone posts some crazy talk that leads to violence, then the company gets sued.

CrystalMath

DaemonFC[m]: some of them are aware of that

I'm absolutely not in favor of Section 230 getting repealed because it's also going to increase calls to get rid of the DMCA safe harbor clause as well.

CrystalMath

i think maybe section 230 needs some changes

Jan 15 23:54

CrystalMath

but not a full repeal

Once that's gone, companies will go out of their way to block access to anything they think may be infringing. You think they police files based on hash values NOW.....

CrystalMath

i would have it state than only an unmoderated website is safe from what its users post

CrystalMath

that would then turn it around

CrystalMath

twitter would be forced to stop moderating

or face charges for everything they have illegal

DaemonFC[m]

Pretty much the entire web will need to be replaced at this point.

MinceR

CrystalMath: that would probably get turned into something where all users _must_ provide ID

MinceR

and they'd go after the users for everything they say

Jan 15 23:56

CrystalMath

MinceR: i don't see why?

Jan 15 23:56

MinceR

because people are going to be butthurt about offensive speech and privacy violations

Kind reminder: whatever "followers" you have in #twitter one day they will all be lost, either because they sign off or the site goes offline for good (which will happen, it's just a question of when). Same for #facebook #youtube etc.

Yes, and it would be interesting to see how many people sign up for Fuckerberg book and Shitter when it demands their state ID or driver's license and their social security card.

CrystalMath

MinceR: they already are

MinceR: This Galaxy S20 has been the most irritating phone ever.

DaemonFC[m]

It constantly spams your notifications to sign up for Cloud shit.

MinceR

CrystalMath: and that's why there would be a push to be able to punish someone for it

Corporatists and corporate writers will always be paid vastly more than public interest advocates and real journalists. The salaries should be the opposite of credibility badges. Who pays? And why?

MinceR

DaemonFC[m]: samsung phones really went to shit since samsung decided to copy crApple, didn't they?

CrystalMath

MinceR: so, with section 230 no longer protecting the company, they could go after the company

CrystalMath

close them down

MinceR

CrystalMath: then nobody would run a service letting users post

MinceR

the ability to comment has already disappeared from many sites
