[00:29]	IsambardPrince	I think so.
[00:29]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, A Democrat just flipped the Florida State Senate district that includes Mar-a-Lago.
[00:29]	IsambardPrince	A 12 percentage point swing.
[00:30]	IsambardPrince	After Trump mailed in his ballot, after calling mail-in ballots "mail-in cheating".
[00:30]	IsambardPrince	Oh, a state house district, meh.
[00:30]	IsambardPrince	Anyway, very funny.
[00:30]	MinceR	lol
[00:31]	MinceR	he must have assumed everyone else does what he does
[00:33]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, I just saw a Youtube video with a GTA Vice City play through.
[00:33]	IsambardPrince	It's nice to see someone else did that golf course mission the way I did.
[00:33]	IsambardPrince	Steal a helicopter, fly past the security, and use the helicopter blades to kill the guy.
[00:39]	MinceR	:)

[03:10]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, Trump has a brilliant plan.
[03:10]	MinceR	uh oh
[03:10]	IsambardPrince	Drop 2,000 marines into a country of 100 million people with 1.2 million soldiers.
[03:11]	IsambardPrince	Even though the reinforcements for those marines are another 2,000 marines who are 6 weeks behind them.
[03:11]	IsambardPrince	I see he's running the Department of "War" (Defense) as well as the Department of Injustice.
[03:12]	MinceR	:>
[03:12]	IsambardPrince	If you're going to invade you need to send enough people and equipment to....invade.
[03:12]	IsambardPrince	God only knows what he thinks he's going to do with 2,000 marines in the middle of Iran.
[03:12]	MinceR	how are those 4000 marines supported? air force? UAVs?
[03:12]	MinceR	also, aren't they going to an island nobody cares about?
[03:12]	IsambardPrince	I've heard they may drop them off by air to secure the uranium.
[03:13]	IsambardPrince	I've also heard they might occupy Kharg Island.
[03:13]	IsambardPrince	Occupying Kharg Island would be the easier of the two.
[03:14]	IsambardPrince	It's an island, and Iran might not want to risk a bombardment because it's where one of their main oil depots is.
[03:14]	MinceR	also, is bombardment from cannons on ships still a thing?
[03:18]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, Facebook's auto moderator is hiding Fox32 Chicago's own news links on their own page because of "potential spam".
[03:18]	IsambardPrince	It's nice that it does that while it allows death threats and pictures of adult men shitting diapers.
[03:18]	MinceR	:>
[03:19]	MinceR	given who owns fox32.exe, it seems justified

[05:05]	superkuh	tldr is that a lame dude weaseled his way into pseudo-ownership of the name by sponsoring the freenode live conferences then threatened to waste everyone's time and money with lawsuits. So everyone just let him have the name and created libera. He literally deleted the old freenode database back in july 2021.

[15:47]	schestowitz[TR3]	where he or she was in #techrights
[15:47]	schestowitz[TR3]	some people still assume we are there
[15:47]	newuser51	thats me
[15:48]	schestowitz[TR3]	because one person parked there and registered the channel
[15:48]	newuser51	this irc is directly connected with/to techrights.org ?
[15:48]	MinceR	yes
[15:49]	schestowitz[TR3]	<superkuh> It was not a great time. And the techrights fucks were down with it just because they didn't like staff.
[15:49]	schestowitz[TR3]	<dogg0> interesting.. even libera ppl seemed hostile when i asked
[15:49]	schestowitz[TR3]	<dogg0> superkuh, where you recommend for like minded us?
[15:49]	schestowitz[TR3]	that is not true
[15:49]	schestowitz[TR3]	he keeps saying thiiisd
[15:49]	schestowitz[TR3]	we did not support andrew lee
[15:49]	schestowitz[TR3]	we didn't support branching off to a more political network
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	and by political i mean more CoC-heavy, where peopple get banned for political wrongthink
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	or alleged wrongthink
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	that was already becoming an issue in freenode
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	they were banning pro-RMS peopole
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	then they secretly created libera.chat
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	and tried to herd everyone to that
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	where they can exercise more speech control
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	we said no
[15:50]	schestowitz[TR3]	arround april or march 2021
[15:51]	schestowitz[TR3]	then things boiled over
[15:51]	schestowitz[TR3]	we moved to our own network
[15:53]	newuser51	forgive me whats rms
[15:53]	newuser51	stallman?>
[15:53]	MinceR	yes
[15:53]	MinceR	well, i "didn't like staff" because "staff" brought cancel culture into free software and attempted to cancel RMS
[15:54]	MinceR	which is a bit of a red flag when it comes to running an IRC network that's supposed to support free software
[15:54]	schestowitz[TR3]	ime (in my experience):
[15:54]	schestowitz[TR3]	the  tarjectory, goes like,
[15:54]	schestowitz[TR3]	a) we boycott nazis
[15:54]	MinceR	(apparently the FSF didn't mind, but that's because they capitulated)
[15:54]	schestowitz[TR3]	(fine, i understand
[15:54]	schestowitz[TR3]	then, b) nazis is people who have these new criteria
[15:54]	newuser51	how do i say this without making me seem dumb, but i just dont understand how they can have that point of view, like im genuinely trying to understand
[15:55]	schestowitz[TR3]	and then people who have xyz opinions on tech are presumed nazis like (b)
[15:55]	schestowitz[TR3]	don't like wayland? nazi
[15:55]	schestowitz[TR3]	MinceR: no
[15:55]	schestowitz[TR3]	RMS told me
[15:55]	schestowitz[TR3]	they had crisis
[15:56]	MinceR	well, the crisis isn't over
[15:56]	schestowitz[TR3]	in march 2021 rms came back  to the board
[15:56]	schestowitz[TR3]	and then the microsoft petition came
[15:56]	schestowitz[TR3]	by microsoft/ibm
[15:56]	schestowitz[TR3]	the fsf was reeling
[15:56]	schestowitz[TR3]	and losingf staff
[15:56]	schestowitz[TR3]	theyh didn't havee capacity to start creating a new irc network
[15:56]	schestowitz[TR3]	which i advised them to do
[15:56]	MinceR	maybe it makes more sense to run an organization in support of free software with smaller staff rather than with staff that is ideologically opposed to free software
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	you could say so
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	there are many facets
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	as you may already know
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	1) architectural ind.
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	2) hosting ind.
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	(hard with ISPs)
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	3) legal ind.
[15:57]	MinceR	it doesn't seem to take a lot, if they already have servers with a reliable Internet connection (unlike my VPS-es...)
[15:57]	schestowitz[TR3]	that last means means you cvannoot be blacklmailed by proxy
[15:58]	schestowitz[TR3]	that can be accomplished by various means
[15:58]	schestowitz[TR3]	they like to issue blackmail by proxy
[15:58]	schestowitz[TR3]	it's a "hack"
[15:58]	MinceR	yeah
