And the Microsoft propaganda on their Web site is sort of a big problem on its own, which is up there. [00:00] MinceR https://apina.biz/166388.png?mode=sfw [00:00] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-http://apina.biz/166388.png [00:00] DaemonFC WSL and Hyper-V spam happens with IBM, of course, but at least Fedora is less buggy than Ubuntu by a lot. [00:00] TR News AWS was losing money FOR YEARS and Microsoft probably STILL loses money on Azure, judging by all the layoffs. Clown computing isn't a business model. It's a trap. You entice people/companies/govs to lock their systems in PROPRIETARY UIs and various secret interfaces. Later on, when enough prisoners are there, the prices soar. [00:00] MinceR if they didn't want bugs, why did they ship systemd? [00:01] DaemonFC The WSL/Hyper-V thing is like a foaming-at-the-mouth endorsement from Canonical and IBM/RH are just like "Hey, it's an option for our customers who want that.". [00:01] DaemonFC It's not like Canonical where they're obviously paid spammers. [00:01] schestowitz[TR] it's Novell reborn [00:02] DaemonFC Yes, the Snap Store is a dumping ground of proprietary/MS crap. [00:02] schestowitz[TR] news is soo slow [00:02] MinceR red hat is officially allied with MICROS~1 [00:02] schestowitz[TR] I was gonna do a video about clown computing [00:02] schestowitz[TR] but I realise we covered those aspects several times in the past [00:02] MinceR http://techrights.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/redhat-microsoft.jpg [00:02] schestowitz[TR] yeah, THAT [00:03] schestowitz[TR] you have to be morally bankrupt to work for these companies now [00:03] schestowitz[TR] many from red hat escaped from ibm [00:03] schestowitz[TR] and went to work for amazon [00:03] DaemonFC A lot of people have quit at Canonical. [00:03] schestowitz[TR] many in amazon now, I checked [00:03] DaemonFC The community is gone, emptied out. [00:03] schestowitz[TR] now amazon announes layoffs [00:04] schestowitz[TR] and the bugs (like Alex) lose them BILLIONS [00:04] schestowitz[TR] apparently their business model does NOT include profitability [00:04] DaemonFC Amazon Clown Services got Jean-Marc Valin after Mozilla quit funding his work on Opus. [00:04] schestowitz[TR] all those companies inn "Bay Area" are the same [00:04] schestowitz[TR] money furnaces [00:04] DaemonFC These White Collar jobs are very unstable, it seems. [00:04] schestowitz[TR] canonical became a firm or resellers [00:05] schestowitz[TR] clown resellers, other lousy salespeople [00:05] DaemonFC People jump from employer to employer every year or two. [00:05] schestowitz[TR] many engineers are leaving such companies [00:05] schestowitz[TR] some try misguided companies [00:05] schestowitz[TR] that stand no chance [00:05] DaemonFC My dad was an engineer. He had a stable "career" until "Free Trade". [00:05] schestowitz[TR] that's old [00:05] schestowitz[TR] 1950-2000 [00:05] schestowitz[TR] or 1990 [00:05] DaemonFC Then RCA sacked him and he never had a job more than a couple years. [00:05] schestowitz[TR] you could work for same company for decades [00:05] DaemonFC Yeah, he limped by between unemployment and contract work for 20 yeaes. [00:05] schestowitz[TR] I woulds reach 12 years in my current employer in feb [00:05] DaemonFC *years [00:06] DaemonFC Then went ahead and retired. [00:06] schestowitz[TR] and that's a stretch [00:06] schestowitz[TR] brb, daily links now [00:07] DaemonFC https://www.today.com/video/biden-tests-positive-for-covid-19-after-paxlovid-rebound-145164869503 [00:07] TR Bot Biden tests positive for COVID-19 after Paxlovid rebound [00:07] DaemonFC COVID is worse in Presidents.

"Oh, Biden wandering around aimlessly shuffling and asking 8 times in a row to speak with a dead woman? Not a problem. Nothing to see here!"

[07:51] DaemonFC I was reading on NPR how a woman who had miscarried was denied medical care in Ohio which put her life at risk, even after they knew she'd miscarried. [07:52] DaemonFC They were erring on the side of possibly letting her bleed out vs. helping her because nobody wants to go to jail and have the state prosecutor accuse them of abortion. [07:54] DaemonFC This is what happens when religious extremists run the government. [07:54] DaemonFC I don't think that the Supreme Court made Dobbs as a "religious edict", like Michael Moore said. [07:55] DaemonFC I think they knew that in the poverty-stricken states that would lose access to it, more births mean the businesses down there have an easier time subjugating workers and "accidentally" hiring kids while the government looks the other way. [07:56] DaemonFC As a policy, Dobbs is incoherent because it didn't ban abortion in the US, it just kicked it back to the states, and the states with the higher incomes are all keeping it broadly legal.

[08:17] DaemonFC That's bad enough by itself. [08:18] DaemonFC It's a badly structured government and nobody wants to reform it, because reform would open up a can of worms. Everyone comes and makes demands and you won't know what you get. [08:19] DaemonFC One of the ways it's bad is the Constitution allows for a Constitutional Convention to amend or replace the entire thing, if enough states call for one. [08:19] DaemonFC We've probably had enough states call for one and we haven't done it because nobody made good records and it's not clear whether a state can rescind their request once it's out there.

[08:20] DaemonFC So they started passing resolutions to withdraw their requests, on the hope that they could prevent a Convention from happening. [08:21] DaemonFC It would be a disaster. It would be "Everything the Republicans ever wanted to strip out of the Constitution (or put in it) but never had the votes." all at once. [08:22] DaemonFC Do you want to end birthright citizenship? Throw the Senate elections back to the legislatures and ensure a Republican majority? Done and Done. [08:22] DaemonFC Do you want to end one person, one vote? Sure. Do you want to make it so there's no bill of rights and the police can do whatever they want? Sure. [08:23] DaemonFC I mean, you give it to them, you're going to have probably a massive increase in federal government power because they know they can also rig it so they're the ones using it.

Novell [19:47] reptilian_thrills by my general impression is they dont give a shit about that [19:47] MinceR for now, MICROS~1 is mostly content with making competing OS-es unavailable to untrained users [19:47] mjg59_ reptilian_thrills: Not impossible! The user should always have ultimate control, which is a point I've made repeatedly [19:47] MinceR they tried to make Restricted Boot mandatory on x86, but suffered backlash [19:48] MinceR of course people like mjg59_ would have you think they changed mind out of pure goodness of will [19:48] reptilian_thrills The user should always have ultimate control, which is a point I've made repeatedly <- i can debunk this, but you could also be telling the truth [19:48] reptilian_thrills but its possible youre not [19:48] psydruid hi souseksi [19:49] reptilian_thrills of course people like mjg59_ would have you think they changed mind out of pure goodness of will <- im not sure mjg believes in pure goodness of will [19:49] reptilian_thrills most of his arguments strike me as utilitarian [19:49] reptilian_thrills even the positive ones [19:49] souseksi psydruid: how are you? [19:49] MinceR they tried to make you have to delete a key instead of changing a switch in BIOS setup to let you boot an OS of your choice, i'm not sure what happened to that [19:50] MinceR but they did set up ShitLocker so it trashes your data if you change a related setting [19:50] prurigro schestowitz[TR]: the headlines made it sound like secure boot couldn't be disabled, but didn't it turn out that microsoft just disabled cross signed keys that prevented fedora's signed boot from working? and that you can still disable secure boot/add your own keys if you're willing to go into the bios? [19:50] MinceR but i'm sure that's only for your own good, not because they're trying to lock competitors out of the market [19:50] prurigro (I'm not saying I agree with what happened there, but it wasn't quite as bad as initilaly implied, unless I misunderstood) [19:50] mjg59_ Yeah the entire point of automated unlocking of the disk is that you need to ensure that you're running trustworthy code before you unlock it, otherwise someone just replaces your bootloader and has your data [19:51] MinceR it's an overcomplicated mess that changes from year to year [19:51] psydruid souseksi, I'm all-right, thanks. How are you? [19:51] MinceR and accumulates new bugs every time it changes [19:51] MinceR i hope they manage to lock themselves out, too [19:51] souseksi psydruid: not bad. I'm glad You're okay. [19:51] MinceR maybe this species of idiots will finally learn something from that [19:52] reptilian_thrills it's an overcomplicated mess that changes from year to year <- this is the impression i get too [19:52] prurigro mjg59_: in that respect the idea of using secure boot is pretty attractive, especially on a laptop-- it's a shame it's such a pain to get stuff signed and add your own keys. I suppose it's probably only easy on android because signing has been added to the build process [19:52] reptilian_thrills again and again i compare anti-features to election fraud (disenfranchised voters) [19:53] schestowitz[TR] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/When_Google_Met_WikiLeaks [19:53] TR Bot Julian Assange - Wikipedia [19:53] MinceR intHell already killed off "legacy" boot so users don't have an easier way around of this catastrophe [19:53] reptilian_thrills you dont have to make it impossible for black people to vote to fuck with an election [19:53] reptilian_thrills you only have to make it far more trouble for some people than others [19:53] reptilian_thrills then you change the results [19:53] AdmFubar1 https://reclaimthenet.org/disney-plus-demands-users-age-and-gender/ [19:53] TR Bot Disney Plus demands users' age and gender so it can "deliver targeted advertising" as ads launch approaches [19:53] reptilian_thrills this is how the industry fucks with people too [19:53] schestowitz[TR] wikileaks seems to have eliminated the entry [19:53] schestowitz[TR] good for google [19:53] reptilian_thrills drm doesnt stop copying [19:53] schestowitz[TR] *wikipedia I mean [19:53] MinceR prurigro: what happens if someone installs a hardware keylogger in your laptop when you're not looking and recovers your FDE passphrase with it?

[19:54] mjg59_ You don't need to [19:55] MinceR how does your laptop know you're trying to boot it and not someone else? [19:55] mjg59_ It doesn't [19:55] mjg59_ It boots and then you're left at a login screen [19:55] MinceR if only you could remove the TPM and keep it on your person [19:55] MinceR you could call it a "smart card" [19:55] mjg59_ Bitlocker does, in fact, support keeping the key on removable credentials [19:56] MinceR yeah, but that wasn't sufficient for the purposes of lock-in [19:56] MinceR so that's not what most of us got [19:56] mjg59_ Most hardware doesn't ship with a smartcard reader [19:56] mjg59_ So it wouldn't be a terribly effective default [19:56] MinceR most hardware also didn't ship with a TPM until MICROS~1 forced them to [19:56] mjg59_ If you don't like the default Bitlocker policy, you can change it [19:56] schestowitz[TR] security and lockdown are not the same; they are often opposites [19:57] MinceR and most PC-s were general purpose computers until MICROS~1 and intHell forced all this crap on the industry [19:57] schestowitz[TR] lockdown can lock you out from your own machine i.e. it's a major security threat to you [19:57] reptilian_thrills Most hardware doesn't ship with a smartcard reader <- if you include phones most computers probably do [19:57] mjg59_ But the default policy is one that makes sense for a bunch of use cases [19:57] MinceR presumably mjg59_ also hasn't heard of physical attacks against the TPM [19:57] prurigro it isn't lock out so long as you can provide your own keys [19:57] mjg59_ reptilian_thrills: Yeah in theory you can do it over NFC [19:57] schestowitz[TR] Bitlocker is a joke and a fake [19:57] schestowitz[TR] it's fro fools [19:57] MinceR and you can provide your own keys if you know how the magic works this week [19:57] schestowitz[TR] or fro Microsofters who perpetuate the illusion it works as advertised [19:57] MinceR OTOH if you just want to run windows, you don't need to know anything [19:57] mjg59_ MinceR: Yes, which is why Microsoft want to move the TPM on-package [19:57] MinceR this is what a "level playing field" looks like in redmond [19:57] schestowitz[TR] it's also leveraged by malware writersamn [19:57] schestowitz[TR] and ransom [19:58] schestowitz[TR] http://techrights.org/2015/11/14/microsoft-bitlocker-has-bugback-doors-windows-laptopdesktop-encryption-just-a-farce/ [19:58] TR Bot Microsoft BitLocker Has Bug/Back Doors, Windows Laptop/Desktop Encryption Just a Farce | Techrights [19:58] schestowitz[TR] http://techrights.org/2014/07/31/microsoft-back-doors-admission/ [19:58] TR Bot Former Microsoft Engineer Working on Windows BitLocker Confirms Government Asks Microsoft for Back Doors | Techrights [19:58] MinceR mjg59_: which will probably also be vulnerable [19:58] MinceR mjg59_: also, the ShitLocker you used handed your key to MICROS~1, didn't it?

[21:41] DaemonFC And that the politicians that rule over us spend more than the allowance for the unemployed (which only exists in one US state) on a starter salad at a "luncheon". [21:42] DaemonFC So, Fox News was out ginning up outrage at this program, right? [21:42] DaemonFC And they forgot to say you're paying for it. [21:43] DaemonFC Mom was all indignant, I think is the word, that they were "paying people to be unemployed", and I said, "You have to sign a form that says they get to dock your tax checks and Social Security if you haven't paid it all back by then so it's not like there's this huge program handing them money that comes from nowhere.".

[21:44] DaemonFC Then they illegally opened a restaurant for rich assholes for Gavin Newsom and his pals, with the $500 starter salads. [21:45] prurigro just to clarify, you're against lockdowns right? [21:45] DaemonFC They cause a lot of damage of their own. [21:45] prurigro agreed [21:45] DaemonFC It's not like I'm thrilled about how this will go either way. [21:46] DaemonFC I wish they would actually pass some law that says "put your damned mask on in the store or $1,000 fine". [21:46] prurigro and yeah, being pro-lockdown and then sneaking out to eat somewhere dodging them is pretty hypocritical [21:46] DaemonFC We might actually put some sort of lid on it if everyone did wear one, but there's absolutely no requirement to anymore, so nobody does. [21:46] DaemonFC And now we're getting a trifecta of flu, COVID, and RSV. [21:46] DaemonFC RSV hitting adults even! [21:47] prurigro I feel like to justify a huge fine for not wearing a mask they'd also need to require proper masks that actually help, vs the leaky fabric ones everyone was ordering off etsy [21:47] DaemonFC You know what they say. A crime punishable by a fine means it's legal for money. [21:47] DaemonFC But you attach some monetary punishment to something, even a small one, compliance goes up. [21:47] starstreak it'd be hard to eat a $500 salad with a mask on <- a $500 salad? [21:47] DaemonFC Not wearing your seatbelt is like $40 or $50 and doesn't affect your insurance. [21:47] prurigro I'm kinda happy they dropped the masking rules though-- I got sick like 6 times once everything was back to normal because my immmune system had no idea what it was doing anymore [21:48] prurigro I'm finally where I was pre-pandemic [21:48] DaemonFC But you don't have that law, you get 60-70% compliance, and if it's even just a $50 ticket, it goes up to 97%. [21:48] starstreak i still wear a mask [21:49] DaemonFC There's no penalty for not wearing your seatbelt other than a $50 fine. It's just how many $50 fines and how many times you want the cops to pull you over. [21:49] prurigro I guess it was more than just masking rules- it was fully reopening in general. it's hard to say how much spread avoidance masks helped with [21:49] DaemonFC And most people do it so they don't get the cop paying them some personal attention, more than the fine. [21:50] prurigro starstreak: I'll wear one if I have a cold, but it's a leaky etsy one so I'm not sure if I'm actually helping anyone [21:50] DaemonFC When the law was passed, a $50 had a lot more buying power. [21:50] DaemonFC It was a $50 ticket in Illinois in 1990 and it's a $50 ticket now, so you're talking like $20 in today's terms. [21:51] DaemonFC The punishment goes down every year because the money isn't worth what it was in 1990. [21:51] DaemonFC If it's $50 in another 10 years, you're talking like a $9-10 fine. [21:51] DaemonFC So eventually the fine doesn't mean a whole lot. [21:52] DaemonFC The funny thing is that you can request a criminal trial on a seat belt ticket with a jury and everything, if you want to incur court costs and probably get convicted anyway. [21:52] DaemonFC The fine is so low, everyone just pays it. [21:53] DaemonFC "I demand a jury!" Okay, you're convicted and now you owe us $300. [21:54] prurigro wait, it's a felony? [21:54] DaemonFC You should only demand a trial (like I did) in a traffic case where pleading guilty involves getting sued because there was an accident and they're trying to pin it on you and/or the fine is huge anyway and what are court costs at this point compared to the odds of getting it tossed and/or will it affect your insurance and how much. [21:55] DaemonFC In my case, the fine wasn't severe ($141), but I paid $400 for a lawyer and took it to trial and got the ticket thrown out. [21:55] DaemonFC Why? Because the other driver threatened to sue me, and pleading guilty is slam dunk for them if they sue you later, and my insurance would have gone up 34%. [21:56] DaemonFC wait, it's a felony? [21:56] DaemonFC Well, in Illinois, most traffic cases are what's called a Petty Offense. [21:57] DaemonFC It's technically a criminal proceeding, but the only possible outcome is a fine, and possibly putting yourself in a worse position for a civil suit. Pleading Guilty is evidence for the person who sues you in civil court later, but being found guilty isn't. [21:57] DaemonFC Petty Offenses are not punishable by jail time or probation or anything, only a fine. They're not even a misdemeanor. [21:58] DaemonFC Pretty much nobody cares about your driving record unless you take a job involving driving company vehicles or it's your car insurance company. [21:58] DaemonFC If you go to court and you risk losing and they offer you "court supervision" it's worth considering. [21:59] DaemonFC You pay a fine, you may or may not be sentenced to defensive driving school, and it keeps it off your insurance record and if it closes out (you don't get more in the supervision period), then it can't affect your license. [21:59] DaemonFC But pleading guilty for supervision creates liability in a lawsuit later. ● Nov 16 [22:00] DaemonFC So sometimes, I mean, if they're REALLY likely to sue you, sometimes you have to proceed to trial no matter what happens. [22:02] DaemonFC An interesting twist that I've seen though, was a man in this situation that told the judge "I'd like to consider the prosecutor's offer, however, someone has threatened to sue me so I really have my hands tied here. WCan I ask what you're likely to do to me if I plead Not Guilty and then you find me Guilty?". [22:03] DaemonFC And the judge says, "Well, I would most likely give you court supervision and a $350 fine plus court costs.)". [22:03] DaemonFC And so the guy says, "In that case, I plead Not Guilty.". [22:04] DaemonFC And the prosecutor laid out all of the evidence and the guy said he had no response to it, and the judge gave him court supervision and a $350 fine and court costs, like the prosecutor's offer was before. [22:04] DaemonFC But with the benefit that he had technically had his trial, pleaded Not Guilty, and was found Guilty by the judge, so it was inadmissible in a civil suit. [22:05] DaemonFC So, the judge was just playing a hypothetical with the guy, and the trial was only technically a trial, and now it's useless to the people in the other car for their lawsuit. [22:05] *AdmFubar (~mradmin@ngqaam7baxnug.irc) has joined #techrights [22:06] DaemonFC As long as the government gets money out of you in traffic court, they don't really have any interest in fucking with you more than that. [22:07] DaemonFC So keep in mind, as long as you're willing to pay them money, everything else can be negotiated away. [22:08] DaemonFC It's not quite like that in misdemeanors. Typically, though, throwing away your right to trial to speed up the prosecutor's busy day goes a long way to minimizing your punishment, even if he really had a good case against you. [22:08] DaemonFC And offering the maximum fine tends to lower the other punishments. [22:08] DaemonFC It's all a racket. [22:09] DaemonFC You're basically buying your way out of community service or something by putting cash into a police pension. [22:09] DaemonFC But don't call it that! [22:11] DaemonFC How much of their time and trouble you can take that pins them down and forces them to not get something else done is the bulk of your leverage in a negotiation. [22:14] DaemonFC Unless you're in there for murdering someone, they have bigger fish to fry than you. The more bigger fish, the less time they want to spend dealing with you. [22:14] DaemonFC It's already cost them hours going over police reports and preparing a case, but a misdemeanor trial can take all day. [22:14] DaemonFC They'd rather be taking a murderer to trial. [22:15] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], It's amazing how poorly these mobile sites work. You'd think they'd want you to order a pizza, not give up because it's loading so badly on your phone.
