MinceRlolMay 21 00:02
MinceRwhat a sales pitchMay 21 00:02
baronhk[m]1I see much less protocol overhead with Wireguard than OpenVPN on Windows or Linux.May 21 00:02
schestowitz__but the counter-petition thwarted the narrativeMay 21 00:02
MinceR"finally you can wire something developed to the same quality standards as IE directly to your brain!"May 21 00:03
kingoffrancejust got up and read the scrollback, i was gonna say also:   re: (quoting quoting) <schestowitz__> I think attacking a specific organisation is worse than attacking a  <schestowitz__> class defined by a behaviour."      trttl " it's hard to believe that people are actually this confused"       <-- well, it is more of scalia's "formalism" type "rule of law". it appears at first glance to be "behavior, not appearance" but then "class defined bMay 21 00:03
kingoffrancey behavior" seals it.   i guess you can't have class war without divyying ppl into classes first lolMay 21 00:03
schestowitz__baronhk[m]1: very few lines of coeeMay 21 00:03
schestowitz__*codeMay 21 00:03

MinceR:>May 21 00:03
baronhk[m]1We all know how that ended.May 21 00:03
kingoffrance"class defined by behavior" is basically another "some ppl are above the law"May 21 00:04
baronhk[m]1Microsoft ended up bogged down trying to support both standards and the mess it created trying to hijack them within the same browser.May 21 00:04
baronhk[m]1Still is for another decade.May 21 00:04
*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)May 21 00:05
baronhk[m]1Putting IE rendering mode into Edge is just as ugly as having it in EdgeHTML Edge.May 21 00:05
schestowitz__EdgeHTML LOLMay 21 00:05
schestowitz__MSIE rebrandedMay 21 00:05
schestowitz__AZ COVAXMay 21 00:06
XRevan86schestowitz__: Both are dead now.May 21 00:06
baronhk[m]1Well, it was basically IE 11 Standards Mode without any compatibility renderers.May 21 00:06
schestowitz__who? what?May 21 00:06
schestowitz__edge and html? :-)May 21 00:06
schestowitz__I wishMay 21 00:06
XRevan86Although, no, Microsoft will keep support for Trident until 2029 apparently.May 21 00:07
schestowitz__let's go to gemini..May 21 00:07
baronhk[m]1Then they started adding more stuff to it while IE rotted.May 21 00:07
XRevan86schestowitz__: I meant Trident and EdgeHTML.May 21 00:07
baronhk[m]1In 2015, there was very little rendering difference between IE 11 Standard Mode and EdgeHTML.May 21 00:07
baronhk[m]1But by last year there definitely was.May 21 00:07
schestowitz__well, those are irrelevant nowMay 21 00:08
schestowitz__thankfullyMay 21 00:08
schestowitz__Microsoft is mostly faking importance nowMay 21 00:08
baronhk[m]1Well, Chromium as the only engine out there is a big problem.May 21 00:09
baronhk[m]1At the rate Microsoft was going, EdgeHTML would have been open sourced eventually.May 21 00:09
schestowitz__for years nowMay 21 00:09
schestowitz__baronhk[m]1: nobody would adopt itMay 21 00:09
schestowitz__no point to...May 21 00:09
*wineroots has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)May 21 00:10
baronhk[m]1Apple is not going to adopt Chromium but they've given up on their own extensions model in Safari. Copied the one from Chrome.May 21 00:10
baronhk[m]1WebExtensions is going to be missing from GNOME's browser for quite a while because a lot of that is not related to the engine.May 21 00:11

XRevan86> (17:27:58) amdj: rasengan: tomaw doesn't claim to be anything. christel resigned and we (all, collectively) elected tomaw to the head of staff position. tomaw had nothing to do with it. if you're going to keep up with these lies I'm going to mute you.May 21 00:13
baronhk[m]1One reason why EdgeHTML was never going to have a lot of extensions even if it copied the API was because Microsoft still had to convince developers to port the extension to Edge, test it, and put it in their store.May 21 00:14
baronhk[m]1Very few ever bothered.May 21 00:14

baronhk[m]1<XRevan86 "But I guess it's because Edge us"> When that news article said cops in Texas asked that guy how he ended up with so much child porn and they wanted to know where he got it and he said "Bing", I was dismayed.May 21 00:18
baronhk[m]1Then the New York Times called them out on it.May 21 00:18
XRevan86baronhk[m]1: Thank goodness he didn't say "Searx" or something.May 21 00:19
baronhk[m]1For many years, over a decade, people could just get on Bing or Windows Live Search and entire CP search terms and it would just bring it up in the video tab.May 21 00:19
baronhk[m]1At the same time, Microsoft said it was providing PhotoDNA to law enforcement, it was showing people things that should have been in PhotoDNA on Bing.May 21 00:20
baronhk[m]1*enter search termsMay 21 00:20

baronhk[m]1No chance of it, but it's interesting to note that much of the opposition was because they can sell weed to people from Idaho and they wouldn't be able to if the border changed.May 21 02:02
kingoffrance:/May 21 02:03
kingoffrancei dont think legal or not is gonna stop anything :)May 21 02:03
baronhk[m]1Well, they pour over into the counties adjacent to the states where it is illegal and buy weed there.May 21 02:06
baronhk[m]1Illinois has sold more than $180 million in weed to Indiana in the first full year our legalization law was in effect.May 21 02:06
baronhk[m]1The Indiana state government can prosecute people who come in with it, but their law enforcement expenses are racking up while we get their cash.May 21 02:07
baronhk[m]1I'm sorry, $180 million is out of state total.May 21 02:08
baronhk[m]1But a lot of that is IN, because there's really four state borders around us and that's where the majority goes.May 21 02:08
baronhk[m]1We'd be selling more to Indiana except it's also legal in Michigan, so some people buy it there because it's closer.May 21 02:08
baronhk[m]1Abortion will be the same if Roe gets struck down. They'll just open more clinics right across the state line.May 21 02:09
baronhk[m]1Stallman pointed out that Texas is trying to pass a law where anyone can sue anyone for $10,000 if they get an abortion or assist with one.May 21 02:09
MinceRthe freedom to sue people for getting or assisting an abortionMay 21 02:10
baronhk[m]1Basically, under that law if a woman gets an abortion in Texas, I could file a lawsuit in a Texas court against both the doctor and her even though I don't even know her.May 21 02:10
MinceRthe freedom to practice their religion, their wayMay 21 02:11
baronhk[m]1Well, I think all it will do is silence the women who go out of state, because the state still has to gather evidence to bring it into court as a crime.May 21 02:11
baronhk[m]1Theoretically, if Roe is struck down, states could pass laws making it a crime to, as a resident, get an abortion out of state.May 21 02:11
baronhk[m]1How do they enforce that? People narcing on themselves on Social Media would be one way.May 21 02:12
baronhk[m]1Right now, even though having sex with a 17 year old is legal in Illinois, they can still charge you with crimes for it.May 21 02:12
baronhk[m]1Contributing to the delinquency of a minor, traveling to meet a minor, potentially kidnapping, so you have a lot of exposure, but what's the most interesting as it relates to a state's ability to prosecute a crime is "traveling".May 21 02:13
baronhk[m]1Texas could say "Traveling to obtain an abortion." is an offense.May 21 02:13
baronhk[m]1How could they enforce it? The travel to obtain an abortion would have to be related to Texas in some way, they would have to prove you traveled somehow and some distance, and they would have to prove what your primary intent for the travel was.May 21 02:14

baronhk[m]1So basically, you would need to not tell anyone where you were going or why, leave your cell phone at home, don't ever talk about the abortion on an electronic communications device, and preferably find an abortion clinic that destroys patient records quickly even though it is out of state and those records should be covered under HIPAA.May 21 02:15
baronhk[m]1It would also help if you went over there to go shopping or something first and then decided to get the abortion while you were already there, as far as your defense in court.May 21 02:16
baronhk[m]1Stallman says don't be tracked, pay cash.May 21 02:17
baronhk[m]1If you're out of state without permission on probation, your probation officer tends to find out if they want to violate it for something. How?May 21 02:17
baronhk[m]1You're no longer subject to the fourth amendment while you're on probation. If they ask for bank records or cell phone records or anything, they get them because they don't need a warrant. You signed that to avoid going to jail.May 21 02:18
baronhk[m]1It means keep the cell phone at home, don't let anyone take pictures of you out of state, and if you stop for gas or food, pay cash.May 21 02:18
*koo6 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)May 21 02:19
baronhk[m]1Somehow, asking for permission to be in Indiana sounded better in court as "My elderly mother lives there, I have no family in Illinois, and I will stay living here and follow your laws." than "Mom's dropping off her car here and I need to drop her back off in Indiana so I can stop paying the car loan and drive around with my ex's car, who is the reason why I'm here, to make him squirm, while I'm not making theMay 21 02:21

baronhk[m]1MinceR: It's not what you say. It's how you say it.May 21 02:22
baronhk[m]1And in all things, it's the thought that counts.May 21 02:22
baronhk[m]1I didn't plug my phone into the car's navigation system because I was worried that it might pass it along to the finance company where the car was at by retrieving GPS coordinates from the phone through Android Auto.May 21 02:24
MinceR:>May 21 02:24
MinceRthe car doesn't have a GPS receiver of its own?May 21 02:25
baronhk[m]1I don't think so. They were calling me every day for almost 5 months asking where it was at.May 21 02:25
baronhk[m]1I told them I'd tell them when I got around to doing so.May 21 02:25
baronhk[m]1Eventually, I drove it down to Joliet and stripped the plates off and canceled the insurance and abandoned it on a dealer lot. Told them they could pick it up there.May 21 02:26
baronhk[m]1So they charged John for late payments, late payment fees, garaging at the dealership, new plates, a new insurance policy, and he had to take a day off work and ride Metra down to Joliet. May 21 02:27
baronhk[m]1Which is about 4.5 hours from Fox Lake changing commuter trains once.May 21 02:27
MinceRin my car, buying the satellite navigation option is equivalent to getting an SD card with the maps on itMay 21 02:27
MinceRthe car already has everything else necessary for itMay 21 02:28
baronhk[m]1My car now has dials and buttons on it.May 21 02:28
baronhk[m]1And a tape player.May 21 02:28
baronhk[m]1The mechanic said he'd buy it from me. I said I didn't want something new.May 21 02:29
baronhk[m]1They always figure out how to make new things worse than an old thing with a lot of miles.May 21 02:29

MinceRsebsebseb: how can i trust any of them? as far as i can tell, there's no way to verify them independentlyMay 21 02:52
XRevan86sebsebseb: I have no reason to trust or not trust either party. They even both be more or less right, different pespectives paint different pictures.May 21 02:53
sebsebsebyep that's why  going back to the other subject, they have the mac os x hteme  by default in MinceR  OS, to paint a differnet picture as well :)May 21 02:54

opali dont agree with everything that either side is doing, but the general sentiment that freenode has endured a hostile takeover is still thereMay 21 09:36
schestowitz__it started with dispute, citing "FSF"May 21 09:37
schestowitz__fearing hostile takeoverMay 21 09:37
opali think that part is hard to argueMay 21 09:37

opalmaybe i did but years agoMay 21 09:43
opalin any case i didnt pay it much mindMay 21 09:43
opali believe the snoonet change of ownership logs were legit thoughMay 21 09:43
opalgoing through the pdf as wellMay 21 09:46
trttl>They’ve repeatedly proven, even in court, that they don’t log.May 21 09:52
trttlthis is inaccurateMay 21 09:52
trttliirc an employee or someone affiliated with pia at the time said something in court (as a witness? not sure) that to the best of their knowledge pia doesn't logMay 21 09:55
opalif logs havent (so far) been divulged then i guess thats all we can go byMay 21 09:55
schestowitz__can you link it?May 21 09:56
trttli understand but the wording is not accurate in my opinionMay 21 09:56

baronhk[m]1The truth is that Apple can't guarantee that iOS is free of malware because they couldn't pay people who understand how to read code to sit there and review every app submission, line by line. There's not enough money. There's not even enough people in the world.May 21 14:35
baronhk[m]1And it's interesting that they never claimed iOS was malware-free in their testimony, only that it was less of a problem due to the lockdown.May 21 14:36
baronhk[m]1Which means that they felt they would perjure themselves in court and someone would expose them, had they dared to swear by the handshake promise made to iPhone users.May 21 14:37
baronhk[m]1Perjury and the articles that would follow would have been far worse for them than admitting that malware is a problem on the Mac, which they aren't even focused on anymore anyway.May 21 14:38
baronhk[m]1It's not difficult to see where macOS is heading. In ten years, it probably won't exist. Apple will move people over to iOS on an iPad and say dock a keyboard and here's XCode for development.May 21 14:39

schestowitz__"You mean Jeff Epstein's friend, Bill Gates. THE Bill Gates that is now exposed a a sex predator who went around trawling Microsoft for vulnerable women while he had been married for years? The Bill Gates that said he taught his daughter about sex at 7?"May 21 14:55
schestowitz__his wife said thatMay 21 14:55
schestowitz__not billMay 21 14:55
baronhk[m]1The whole thing is a lot, A LOT, creepier than a 17 year old marrying a 21 year old.May 21 14:57
baronhk[m]1They try to deflect from the Epstein connection now by complaining about "child marriage laws".May 21 14:57
baronhk[m]1Which, again, in no state is under 16 and they all have multiple safeguards to make sure it's not some guy in a free candy van.May 21 14:58
baronhk[m]1I would argue that child molesters are not generally going to try to marry a 16=17 year old for sex.May 21 14:59
baronhk[m]1By that age, they've lost interest. The whole child predator thing revolves around a sick attraction to people who do not have adult physical features so why would they marry a 17 year old?May 21 14:59
schestowitz__so gates foundation now lobbies on child marriage?May 21 15:00
schestowitz__I did not open the link btwMay 21 15:00
baronhk[m]1Yeah, apparently. May 21 15:00
techrights-bot...so #gatesfoundation now lobbies on child marriage. Utterly disgusting. It this the strategy of #billgates now? Legalising his mate Epstein? Posthumously.May 21 15:01
schestowitz__"Our European visitors are important to us."May 21 15:01
schestowitz__I cannot access the articleMay 21 15:01
baronhk[m]1Gates is apparently "on the side of the children". (Sure.)May 21 15:02
baronhk[m]1The study bemoans that out of over 300,000 marriages to people 16-18 in the US in the last 20 years or so, 60,000 would have been sex crimes in the jurisdiction had they occurred outside of marriage.May 21 15:02

baronhk[m]1His ties to Epstein don't look so bad if the states allow "child marriage".May 21 15:05
schestowitz__this will eb the downhall of this "foundation"May 21 15:06
baronhk[m]1Sex within marriage is viewed differently by the community than sex outside of marriage, which is why it wouldn't be a crime if you are married to that 16 year old. I also would add, again, that it requires parental approval and a judge agreeing to it.May 21 15:06

schestowitz__now that they ragequitMay 21 17:41
schestowitz__maybe I can post some namesMay 21 17:41
schestowitz__I removed from from the articleMay 21 17:41
MinceR:)May 21 17:42
schestowitz__related to the anti-RMS thingMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__for these reasonsMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:08:12 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>heyMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:08:29 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>ive been targeted by some of these same people for yearsMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:08:39 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and am trying to sort it out with oftc and freenode right at this very momentMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:08:51 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and may be able to provide information that will help your effortMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:13:33 BST] <schestowitz__>go aheadMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:13:57 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>im very tired it is late here, but a few years ago i was targeted in much the same way daniel pocock wasMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:14:10 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and it went on for yearsMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:14:29 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>to the point where both oftc and freenode networks' staff got involvedMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:14:49 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>an ancient story now, but, ties in to currentMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:15:06 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>so anyway i was probing into the background w/ molly de blanc at debianMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:15:21 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and was approached by tom wesley (board at OFTC)May 21 17:43
schestowitz__[] [04:15:26 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>who asked me about my role in the RMS thingMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__---------May 21 17:43
schestowitz__seems like a method nowMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__claim someone is "connected" to pocockMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__and then try to cancel themMay 21 17:43
schestowitz__they lobbies fsf to also cancel himMay 21 17:44
MinceRmicrosoft/ibm finally has something that worksMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__*lobbiedMay 21 17:44
MinceRof course they're going to use it on everybodyMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__[] [04:15:31 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>since i did some PR counter-campaign workMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__[] [04:15:43 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>i told him what i knew and was informed he was going to issue a kline by himMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__[] [04:15:54 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>when he did he issued it for both networksMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__[] [04:15:59 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>as he is staff at both networks nowMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__[] [04:16:17 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>i connected to oftc by proxy to talk to their staffMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__[] [04:16:25 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>tomaw had doug freed (dwfreed) step inMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__afaik, they all quit by nowMay 21 17:44
schestowitz__but now you can see what they didMay 21 17:44
opalXRevan86 what do you want to knowMay 21 17:45
schestowitz__they are also connected to oftcMay 21 17:45
stormchaser3000the next thing you know the entire free software community will be labeled as rapists and child molesters or something to that effectMay 21 17:45
schestowitz__they hope...May 21 17:45
schestowitz__but there's resistance to that agendaMay 21 17:45
schestowitz__[] [04:16:31 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>who reissued the klineMay 21 17:45
schestowitz__[] [04:16:36 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and it expired at oftcMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:16:41 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and i cleared it up w/ freenodeMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:16:47 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>by talking to their staffMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:17:00 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>until today dwfreed approached me againMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:17:10 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and issued a kline with no explanation other than "harassment, lol"May 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:17:20 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and this kline was once again on both oftc and freenodeMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:17:31 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>i have worked it out w/ oftc but not freenode yetMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:17:36 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>work in progressMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:17:38 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>butMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__[] [04:18:04 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>the issue here is both of these people are tied up w/ the weirdness around debian/gnome foundation and are leaking into positions of control at freenodeMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__now they try to cancel FREENODE itselfMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__notice the namesMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__I don't mind naming them nowMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__I did not about a month agoMay 21 17:46
XRevan86opal: Is it true that 2FA was added a long time ago and rasengan only incidentally recently noticed that after checking when tomaw contacted him on ownership?May 21 17:46
schestowitz__for obvious reasonsMay 21 17:46
schestowitz__but they they show their cards, some of them as aboveMay 21 17:46
opaloh, questions like thatMay 21 17:46
opali'm aware of the situation in general but not that awareMay 21 17:46
opali could ask around but it'd likely be a game of he-said-she-saidMay 21 17:47
schestowitz__2fa is not a good modelMay 21 17:47
schestowitz__sounds good on paper onlyMay 21 17:47
XRevan86The registrar may be keeping a timeline of when 2FA was added and removed.May 21 17:47
schestowitz__and it leads to many human rights issues, tooMay 21 17:47
schestowitz__"Would you like my urine sample, too?"May 21 17:47
opalperhaps, for account auditing purposes i think a lot of registrars do thatMay 21 17:47
XRevan86schestowitz__: OTP really works.May 21 17:47
opali use totp 2fa where it's supported, but i'd prefer pki authMay 21 17:48
schestowitz__this is a key part:May 21 17:48
stormchaser3000I am planning on writing an article about the Stallman situation (in support of Stallman of course), but I am trying to figure out what angle I should come at it fromMay 21 17:48
schestowitz__[] [04:18:13 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>which is a central hub of activity for the open source community May 21 17:48
schestowitz__[] [04:18:25 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and are using that access control to suppress pro-rms campaigningMay 21 17:48
schestowitz__[] [04:18:49 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>which leads me to believe there will be another wave after all the key players who jammed up their last effort are goneMay 21 17:48
schestowitz__I was warned a long time ago freenode would suffer some fateMay 21 17:48
schestowitz__and that the goal would be to target some peopleMay 21 17:48
schestowitz__I don't want to move to a network controlled by people who witch-hunt people who campaigned for the FSFMay 21 17:49
schestowitz__the whole thing puts in context my concerns for freenodeMay 21 17:49
stormchaser3000yeahMay 21 17:49
schestowitz__all that "letter of resignation" in tandem thing is similar to what osi gnome foundation and others coordinatedMay 21 17:49
schestowitz__and then chose Microsoft as their platformMay 21 17:49
schestowitz__with typescript (Microsoft) codeMay 21 17:49
opaldevault is trying his best to convince libera.chat staff to refrain from nonfree platforms, going forwardMay 21 17:50
opalwe'll see how that works outMay 21 17:50
stormchaser3000wasn't there also a website started for GNU project maintainers who subscribed to a certain political ideology?May 21 17:50
schestowitz__[] [04:19:38 BST] <schestowitz__>you need to backtrack a bit and explain moreMay 21 17:50
schestowitz__[] [04:19:40 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>alot of the controversy around why i was being klined left and right surrounded that i had uncovered that molly de blanc has previous smear targetsMay 21 17:50
schestowitz__[] [04:20:00 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>and that this is all centered around debian and gnome foundationMay 21 17:50
stormchaser3000I don't remember what it was calledMay 21 17:50
opalyeah there was a gnu offshoot siteMay 21 17:50
schestowitz__[] [04:20:06 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>sure ask questionsMay 21 17:50
schestowitz__[] [04:20:24 BST] <schestowitz__>what you imply is that freenode will target us too?May 21 17:50
schestowitz__[] [04:21:11 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>i believe if the tensions increase that the bad actors leaking over from oftc/gnome/debian will absolutely engaged in reputation management operations or access purging to that aim yesMay 21 17:50
schestowitz__rasengan: ^^May 21 17:50
schestowitz__rasengan: that was a long time agoMay 21 17:50
opalmy ears are open with regard to all sides of this situationMay 21 17:51
schestowitz__imagine freenode being 'collateral' hereMay 21 17:51
opali do have my biases but so far no enemiesMay 21 17:51
schestowitz__as in, the above was posted around the same time sms was sent to rasenganMay 21 17:51
schestowitz__and they had a dispute over controlMay 21 17:51
schestowitz__citing "FSF"May 21 17:51
opalgonna /nick xxxxxxxxxx to confuse everyoneMay 21 17:52
opaland get highlighted a bunch :>May 21 17:52
schestowitz__they also apparently tried to muzzle, as freenode staff, pro-RMS peopleMay 21 17:52
schestowitz__and klined themMay 21 17:52
stormchaser3000wowMay 21 17:52
opali support rms and havent been pushed offMay 21 17:52
alextee[m]maybe matrix will be the winner after all this. federated means you don't have to deal with bad admins. but nothing beats the simplicity of IRCMay 21 17:52
stormchaser3000I haven't been on Freenode that much lately so I haven't been aware of all the dramaMay 21 17:52
opalthen again i avoid political talk on this networkMay 21 17:52
schestowitz__[] [04:22:31 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>the small fry fish from that camp are targeting signers of the pro rms letter but not to any real serious impact, the more dangerous influencers will go for the people exposing this or investigating thisMay 21 17:52
schestowitz__[] [04:22:52 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>in my case i can fart out a proxy any time i need to by clicking a button so all it has done is inconvenience meMay 21 17:52
schestowitz__[] [04:24:33 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>freenode is not a 'coherent' entity in that they will have widely variant responses to this situation depending on which staff member you getMay 21 17:52
schestowitz__[] [04:24:46 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>its the ones that are also in with OFTC staff counts that are going to be the problemMay 21 17:52
schestowitz__^ around the time tomaw sms re "FSF"May 21 17:53
stormchaser3000yeah, I don't like matrixMay 21 17:53
opalalextee[m] i've used irc for a decade and don't see it having a future as a platform or a protocolMay 21 17:53
stormchaser3000the protocol is very bloatedMay 21 17:53
opalmatrix isnt much better but i use itMay 21 17:53
schestowitz__afaik, there's no proper 'vetting' fro freenode staffMay 21 17:53
stormchaser3000IRC is simple and easy to use given that you have a good clientMay 21 17:53
alextee[m]yeah  the protocol is really bad, they should have went with a binary protocol at least instead of this JSON messMay 21 17:53
schestowitz__they pick volunteersMay 21 17:53
opalproblem is there are no good clientsMay 21 17:53
alextee[m]but it works ™️May 21 17:53
schestowitz__and they can be subjected to friend-brings-a-friend entryismMay 21 17:53
opaland it is not easy to use if youre an op or admin of anythingMay 21 17:54
schestowitz__IRC is not hardMay 21 17:54
baronhk[m]1I've been reading about this Covenant Eyes thing that Josh Duggar's wife apparently made him install on his laptops and phone.May 21 17:54
stormchaser3000yeah, IRC is easyMay 21 17:54
schestowitz__unless you want to do "special" thingsMay 21 17:54
opalirc's fucking tediousMay 21 17:54
alextee[m]<opal "problem is there are no good cli"> that's a chicken and egg problem. features are still coming out. nheko is not so bad but element is always the most up to dateMay 21 17:54
opalno, this isnt a chicken/egg problem, this is a problem inherent in irc's designMay 21 17:54
baronhk[m]1She must have been hallucinating if she thought this was going to keep her husband in line after everyone knew he was a child molester and a rapist.May 21 17:54
stormchaser3000nheko is not terrible, but I would still prefer something even lighter weight. Quaternion maybe?May 21 17:54
opalit is impossible to make a fully-conformant client due to the number of heuristics necessary to figure out what an ircd supportsMay 21 17:55
schestowitz__ah, makes senseMay 21 17:55
opali've used and hacked on multiple ircds, multiple clients, written a few botsMay 21 17:55
opalirc's shitMay 21 17:55
schestowitz__but it is widely supportedMay 21 17:55
opalobjectively soMay 21 17:55
schestowitz__like http/wwwMay 21 17:55
schestowitz__pure garbageMay 21 17:55
schestowitz__but widely usedMay 21 17:55
opallolMay 21 17:55
schestowitz__so all of us still use it sometimesMay 21 17:55
schestowitz__dns has many issuesMay 21 17:56
opalhttp (1.1) has better design than irc by milesMay 21 17:56
stormchaser3000fair pointMay 21 17:56
schestowitz__and now they add some encryption to it, decades lateMay 21 17:56
*guysoft42 has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)May 21 17:56
opaldns is garbage yesMay 21 17:56
XRevan86opal: Also interesting is the situation with the acquisition, how did it happen that christel sold freenode, but the people involved in freenode didn't know what that even meant and weren't involved neither in the sell nor in the company?May 21 17:56
schestowitz__opal: it's also newerMay 21 17:56
stormchaser3000modern http and www is garbageMay 21 17:56
schestowitz__XRevan86: SUDDENLY it became an issueMay 21 17:56
schestowitz__the adsMay 21 17:56
schestowitz__the owenrship etc.May 21 17:56
opalXRevan86 i think it'll clear up a lot of things if you know this key fact: there has never been great communication between freenode staff hereMay 21 17:57
stormchaser3000I ended up being so disillusioned with the whole JavaScript VM running in a web browser thing that I just use PHP to generate simple webpages on my siteMay 21 17:57
XRevan86schestowitz__: Yea, and if the 2FA was there for a while, then rasengan started this.May 21 17:57
opalwith libera.chat i hope theyre rectifying that. they published https://libera.chat/bylaws which states how they are going to operate nowMay 21 17:57
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-libera.chat | Libera Chat Bylaws | Libera ChatMay 21 17:57
opalmonthly meetings, an actual board, et ceteraMay 21 17:57
stormchaser3000no extra client-side work necessaryMay 21 17:57
opalso hopefully that helpsMay 21 17:57
schestowitz__if you trust those peopleMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__I worried about them a month agoMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__when the shitstorm was brewing silentlyMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__[] [04:25:11 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>Doug Freed is not currently staff but was able to get a kline on freenode at the same time he issued one on oftcMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__[] [04:25:32 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>so there is some relationship there i dont fully understand yetMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__[] [04:25:51 BST] <schestowitz__>fsf uses freenodeMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__[] [04:25:57 BST] <schestowitz__>canonical pays freenodeMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__[] [04:26:09 BST] <schestowitz__>but I never had bad experiences with freenodeMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__[] [04:26:16 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>they are usually pretty goodMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__[] [04:26:31 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>its the ones that are staff at oftc that are staff at freenode that are the problem thereMay 21 17:58
opali believe libera is making efforts to do things rightMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__oftcMay 21 17:58
opalemphasis on effortMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__look who promotes it this weekMay 21 17:58
opalwhether its what everyone ends up agreeing with, whether things will be done right, thats for time to tellMay 21 17:58
schestowitz__some of the people whom I resent for attacking Torvalds and RMSMay 21 17:58
opalsame with freenodeMay 21 17:58
XRevan86schestowitz__: Because then it means that the chain of events started with tomaw asking rasengan a question, rasengan looking into the account, *noticing* a thing and then reacting to it.May 21 17:58
opalunder new management, time will tell what happensMay 21 17:59
schestowitz__oftc is like the osi of ircMay 21 17:59
schestowitz__having more options if a positiveMay 21 17:59
opaloftc has historically been much more dysfunctional than freenodeMay 21 17:59
schestowitz__but what if the people who run that network run amok with censorship?May 21 17:59
opalbut i hear theyre trying to change as wellMay 21 17:59
schestowitz__some of the same people who started doing this in freenodeMay 21 17:59
schestowitz__as staffMay 21 17:59
schestowitz__as if pro-RMS is some sort of pedophiliaMay 21 18:00
schestowitz__we will know soonMay 21 18:01
MinceR> federated means you don't have to deal with bad admins.May 21 18:01
opaldepends how the bans were happening. i know freenode *never* supported political channels, theyre technically off-topic, but freenode left them alone if they caused few issuesMay 21 18:01
stormchaser3000well, I am off for now. Thanks for the enlightening conversation :)May 21 18:01
MinceRnot exactly, ask baronhk[m]1 about it :>May 21 18:01
opalthere are definitely better places for that discussionMay 21 18:01

schestowitz__I knew about freenode issues aheadMay 21 18:01

schestowitz__they can use powers over freenode to undermine some people/voices/views/projectaMay 21 18:26
schestowitz__[] [04:33:21 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>what im getting at here is that these all involve coordinated behaviours from people all associated with the same projectMay 21 18:26
schestowitz__[] [04:34:32 BST] <xxxxxxxxx>it consistently ties back to debian and their sphere of influence which includes tom wesley, doug freed, and some of the other freenode staff -- not all of them.  freenode's official position will probably stay neutral while these bad actors run amokMay 21 18:26
