schestowitzThey will only split their userbaseJun 25 00:40
DaemonFC[m]<schestowitz "#mozilla : we pushed out our CEO"> Well, your friend Mr. Homophobe is running Brave now.Jun 25 00:42
DaemonFC[m]He's basically the entire reason why Tor Browser could possibly leak your IP address.Jun 25 00:42
DaemonFC[m]So it's kind of bizarre that Brave has a Tor Mode.Jun 25 00:42
DaemonFC[m]Most attacks on a web browser only work if you have Javascript turned on because it's hell on wheels.Jun 25 00:43

schestowitz[00:43] [Notice] -viera to #boycottnovell-social- Dr. Roy Schestowitz (罗伊): At this stage, it would not shock me if #mozilla #firefox started coming up with "Mozilla endorses X for Prime Minister" pop-ups. They also have political #censorship ambitions. In BROWSER level. [https://pleroma.site/objects/bab31fe4-84c6-47e8-a0b0-4821a5f7f4a0]Jun 25 00:46
schestowitz[00:44] [Notice] -viera to #boycottnovell-social- Dr. Roy Schestowitz (罗伊): And even if I mostly AGREE with the political stance of #mozilla CEO I do NOT want my browser to become a political tool, or a vehicle of politics. Keep it neutral, keep it technical. [https://pleroma.site/objects/b5370b54-185b-47ea-8457-044d6f0601c7]Jun 25 00:46

DaemonFC[m]Google software development practices are as bad as most proprietary software companies.Jun 25 00:49
*psymin_ has quit (Quit: Leaving)Jun 25 00:49
DaemonFC[m]We don't even know how many software licenses Chromium violates because Google stuffed it full of files with no license attached.Jun 25 00:50
DaemonFC[m]It seems that Google does a lot of stuff it shouldn't and considers potential lawsuits as a cost of business. Maybe your company does not.Jun 25 00:51
DaemonFC[m]Thanks to them, Android is a rat's nest that can't even be shipped as open source in the United States.Jun 25 00:52
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: I moved off mozilla mostlyJun 25 00:52
schestowitzexcept thunderbirdJun 25 00:52

schestowitznever chrom* anythingJun 25 00:52
schestowitzand yes, I know there's blink thereJun 25 00:52
DaemonFC[m]Better export your mailbox. They don't really care if Thunderbird works or not.Jun 25 00:53
schestowitzbut no connections or sessions with google servers Jun 25 00:53
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: I have backupsJun 25 00:53

schestowitzbut...Jun 25 00:54
schestowitzreleasing it might be spun asJun 25 00:54
schestowitz1) protecting a pedoJun 25 00:54
schestowitz2) ruining the law enforcement processJun 25 00:54
schestowitz3) giving 'tips' to bad peopleJun 25 00:54
schestowitzso I am not sure whether to release it and, if so, in what formJun 25 00:54
schestowitzit would certainly make people think twice about gmailJun 25 00:54
DaemonFC[m]I'm not really sure why anyone would do anything involving Google that they wouldn't want the police knowing about.Jun 25 00:55

DaemonFC[m]Or they'll kill someone on Facebook Live. Yeah, many are just plain dumb.Jun 25 01:19
DaemonFC[m]Like, if you were going to have CP, why would you put it on a Google Drive?Jun 25 01:19
DaemonFC[m]Don't people know that they have software that looks through images and videos and recognizes quite a bit of that?Jun 25 01:20
DaemonFC[m]Theoretically, Windows Defender could be reporting that to Microsoft too.Jun 25 01:20
DaemonFC[m]It sends a hashed value to them about every file it scans on someone's computer.Jun 25 01:20

DaemonFC[m]Bad idea to do anything where you'll definitely be caught, and all of the major tech companies are part of PRISM and almost always cooperate with law enforcement and have back doors into their products. Apple gives iCloud phone backups to the cops.Jun 25 01:22
DaemonFC[m]Then the cops complain that a phone that they don't even need anymore after that is encrypted.Jun 25 01:22

schestowitz[01:19] <DaemonFC[m]> Like, if you were going to have CP, why would you put it on a Google Drive?Jun 25 01:29
schestowitzhe did that, too...Jun 25 01:29
schestowitz[01:14] <oiaohm> DaemonFC[m]: who says criminals are smart thinking how many get done in each year for posting their crimes on youtube.Jun 25 01:29
DaemonFC[m]Well, obvious bad idea is obvious.Jun 25 01:29
schestowitzthe dumb criminals are caught fastJun 25 01:29
schestowitzthe more clever and informed one can become mass murderersJun 25 01:30
schestowitzbecause they're harder to catch, sometimes never get caughtJun 25 01:30
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, people who can't sit down for a minute and go "Okay, if I was the police, what would I do to catch me?".Jun 25 01:30
schestowitzthe police would rather boast about dumb ones, the "Easy cases"Jun 25 01:30
DaemonFC[m]"Oh I know. Ask Google for me files Herpa Derp Derp!"Jun 25 01:30
DaemonFC[m]*myJun 25 01:30
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: Yeah, some guy I know in Waukegan is dating a convict on lifetime probation with ankle monitoring.Jun 25 01:31
DaemonFC[m]The cops used a fake account on Grindr and told the guy they were a 14 year old. He went to meet the "14 year old", and got a pair of handcuffs. Then they found CP on his phone.Jun 25 01:32
DaemonFC[m]They get people to agree to something that they know they shouldn't do, then when they have them they have probable cause to check the phone.Jun 25 01:34
DaemonFC[m]Then look what else they found.Jun 25 01:34
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: Police trolling of gay people isn't new. There's just less things they can get you for now.Jun 25 01:36
DaemonFC[m]I remember reading one case from like the 1960s or something where a state that had a sodomy law made a deal with an 18 year old to go entrap some older man they knew was gay.Jun 25 01:37
DaemonFC[m]18 year old goes into the guy's shop and apparently didn't understand that his instructions were just to get the guy to agree to fuck him so he could testify to that in court.Jun 25 01:38
DaemonFC[m]So he actually lets the guy fuck him and the police arrest him after that. Jun 25 01:38
DaemonFC[m]At least he got to do what he was arrested for, I guess. Good for him. Jun 25 01:38

schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: this one had CP of girls tooJun 25 01:44
schestowitzalbeit only half a dozenJun 25 01:44
schestowitzcompared to like 5000-6000 confirmed of malesJun 25 01:44
schestowitzbut I think he may have also done physical abuseJun 25 01:44
DaemonFC[m]I can't believe it took that long for people to realize what RMS was. He made creepy obsessive comments about sex with kids. Not even just a casual comment about teenagers or something, but like 12 year olds.Jun 25 01:44
schestowitzfuture installments may help confirmed (or refute)Jun 25 01:44
DaemonFC[m]Plus there's the obvious  Lady Gaga thing. He really likes her apparently.Jun 25 01:45
schestowitzwhat about her?Jun 25 01:45
DaemonFC[m]One of her best tracks says that she lives for the applause and "the way that your children scream for me". Jun 25 01:45
schestowitzI think RMS made his remark in response to some Dutch political partyJun 25 01:45
DaemonFC[m]RMS/Lady Gaga conspiracy theory there.Jun 25 01:45
schestowitzone that looked to legalise itJun 25 01:45
schestowitzbut I think he made other tasteless remark in other contextsJun 25 01:46
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, he did.Jun 25 01:46
schestowitzno proof thatJun 25 01:46
schestowitz1) he had cpJun 25 01:46
schestowitz2) he abused kidsJun 25 01:46
schestowitz3) produced cpJun 25 01:46
DaemonFC[m]There's a point where it's just creepy and that's generally why we have age of consent laws.Jun 25 01:46
schestowitzso the mere expression of a viewJun 25 01:47
schestowitzyoutube is littered with videos associating him with amos yee, who went bonkers and was banned by GAFAMJun 25 01:47
DaemonFC[m]He's made disturbing comments like that very young children should be "taught to have sex" by state officials.Jun 25 01:47
DaemonFC[m]*taught how toJun 25 01:47
schestowitzhow young?Jun 25 01:47
schestowitzI think I know the contextJun 25 01:47
schestowitzsexual education was taught to us around age 12...Jun 25 01:48
schestowitz...Jun 25 01:48
schestowitzand that means mensurationJun 25 01:48
schestowitzas girls were starting to 'bleed'Jun 25 01:48
schestowitzguys can have wet dreams etc.Jun 25 01:48
*GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrightsJun 25 01:48
schestowitzerections, and in some case two young kids doing... stuffJun 25 01:48
DaemonFC[m]Yeah. We didn't get that. When I was 12 we learned that AIDS will kill you, end of story.Jun 25 01:48
schestowitzin Russia they were taught to masturbateJun 25 01:48
DaemonFC[m]With a video from the 1980s (in 1996).Jun 25 01:49
schestowitzthe idea that only once one reaches 18 than BAM! sexual.... is falseJun 25 01:49
schestowitzyoung girls need to be prepared for things like blood coming out of their guy, hymen etc.Jun 25 01:49
schestowitzotherwise you can be worse off and kids can be mortifiedJun 25 01:49
schestowitzso one need to examine what RMS saidJun 25 01:50
schestowitzin contextJun 25 01:50
schestowitzthe whole subject is difficultJun 25 01:50
schestowitzit was even difficult for teachers at the timeJun 25 01:50
schestowitzhere they are teaching like 12 year olds about orgasms and stuffJun 25 01:50
schestowitzand in this age of P-C I suppose it's even more difficult for them to do such teaching jobsJun 25 01:50
*GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Jun 25 01:51
schestowitzit's not like they teach kids about BJs and stuffJun 25 01:51
schestowitzbut a case of "boys will be boys"... we need to at least provide informationJun 25 01:51
schestowitzthe classes were sometimes split based on gender because of more sensitive subjectsJun 25 01:51
schestowitzRMS did comment on people or races that mature faster than othersJun 25 01:52
schestowitzlike sexually-mature 16 year oldsJun 25 01:52
schestowitzwhether mentally mature is another rmatterJun 25 01:52
schestowitzCP is another matterJun 25 01:53
DaemonFC[m]The state sent me a plate renewal reminder for the Kia. Well, I was given very specific instructions not to talk to John about anything.Jun 25 01:53
schestowitzbecause depictions of that, unless animated, can greatly harm peopleJun 25 01:53
schestowitzgrown ups who were abused by clergy sometimes commit suicideJun 25 01:54
schestowitzor live a life of shocking memories long left behindJun 25 01:54
schestowitzthat's why laws were passed and the culprits tracked down onJun 25 01:54
schestowitz(cultures that allow sex with minors unsurprisingly don't think too highly of women's equality, either)Jun 25 01:55
DaemonFC[m]<schestowitz "grown ups who were abused by cle"> People commit suicide for all sorts of reason. I've considered it at various points. Basically, who hasn't?Jun 25 01:56
schestowitzthere's different phasesJun 25 01:56
schestowitz1) wish I was no born (RMS)Jun 25 01:57
schestowitz2) wouldn't mind not being bornJun 25 01:57
DaemonFC[m]<schestowitz "(cultures that allow sex with mi"> Well, no, because typically the way it goes down is it's some creepy old guy and a young girl.Jun 25 01:57
schestowitz3) contemplating what if I killed myselfJun 25 01:57
schestowitz4) considering killing oneselfJun 25 01:57
schestowitz5) trying to kill oneselfJun 25 01:57
schestowitz6) succeeding at killing oneself Jun 25 01:57
schestowitzand maybe some in betweenJun 25 01:57
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, my mom is one of those "You support killing babies!" people over abortion.Jun 25 01:58
schestowitz[01:57] <DaemonFC[m]> <schestowitz "(cultures that allow sex with mi"> Well, no, because typically the way it goes down is it's some creepy old guy and a young girl.Jun 25 01:58
schestowitzI think I am more disturbed byJun 25 01:58
DaemonFC[m]One day I said "I wish someone had done it for me.". Got rewarded with a slap across the face.Jun 25 01:58
schestowitz1) 70 year old marrying a 17 year oldJun 25 01:58
schestowitzthan 2) 20 year old marrying a 15 year oldJun 25 01:58
schestowitzshould be a case-by-case thingJun 25 01:58
DaemonFC[m]Pretty much. Jun 25 01:59
schestowitzthe whole below/above 18 thing is already challenged in some contexts by US states, like Romeo-Julia lawsJun 25 01:59
DaemonFC[m]When I was 19-20 I had sex with a few 16/17 year olds. Not lately. Jun 25 01:59
schestowitzit's esp. bad for girls as they sexually mature faster and many girls under age 18 have b/fs above age 18Jun 25 01:59
DaemonFC[m]Nearly  (17 in like 2016) but that was before he told me about how much he liked dogs.Jun 25 02:00
DaemonFC[m]I suddenly had to be somewhere else at that point.Jun 25 02:00
schestowitzYou told me that storyJun 25 02:00
schestowitzthat's zoophiliaJun 25 02:01
schestowitza creepy thing that overlaps animal abuseJun 25 02:01
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, I thought he was putting me on for a few seconds just because it seemed so preposterous.Jun 25 02:01
DaemonFC[m]People always ignore bad results when they think what they're doing is okay.Jun 25 02:03
DaemonFC[m]Like, my mom is one of those "religious nuts" that did whatever she wanted to her whole life and then found god after life got boring anyway.Jun 25 02:03
*GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrightsJun 25 02:04
DaemonFC[m]As part of being all Jesus-ey now, she keeps harping at me over being gay and not givign a shit about abortion.Jun 25 02:04
DaemonFC[m]I keep saying "Adultery is its own commandment.". Jun 25 02:04
DaemonFC[m]"Maybe your marriage didn't work out with Gonad because you were messing around with someone who didn't care that you were a married woman and if a person is willing to do one nasty unethical thing they're willing to do others."Jun 25 02:05
schestowitz"Found God..."Jun 25 02:06
schestowitzWho ever found God?Jun 25 02:06
schestowitzIf it's invisibleJun 25 02:06
schestowitz(yet omnipresent, they tell us..)Jun 25 02:06
schestowitzI "found" the invisible thing... and it's STILL invisible :-)Jun 25 02:07
schestowitzyou need "faith" to make such ludicrous statementsJun 25 02:07
DaemonFC[m]If anyone ever does explain religious people to me they get an attaboy because I'll never understand it.Jun 25 02:08
DaemonFC[m]She's got some kind of mental illness with psychotic features.Jun 25 02:09
DaemonFC[m]She said she was seeing demons and shit when she lived with Dave because one of their houses was haunted.Jun 25 02:09
schestowitzmany people have thatJun 25 02:09
schestowitzbut under religion-tolerating criteria it's classified as OKJun 25 02:10
DaemonFC[m]Nobody else ever saw or heard anything there so she said demons pick one person to bother so everyone else thinks that person is crazy.Jun 25 02:10
schestowitz"man, do you believe in God?"Jun 25 02:10
schestowitz"cool"Jun 25 02:10
schestowitz"man, is Santa real?"Jun 25 02:10
schestowitz"INSANE!"Jun 25 02:10
schestowitzTell me the difference, it's all culturalJun 25 02:10
schestowitzOver a billion Muslims out there do literally believe truly insane things, toooJun 25 02:10
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, and psychiatry is so full of shit.Jun 25 02:11
schestowitz(not that Catholics have much saner beliefs)Jun 25 02:11
*psymin (~psymin@fsf/member/psymin) has joined #techrightsJun 25 02:11
schestowitzbut it is intolerant to call them delusional etc.Jun 25 02:11
DaemonFC[m]It doesn't want to step on their toes so you have to consider "cultural background" before diagnosing schizophrenia or something.Jun 25 02:11
DaemonFC[m]I realize I have bipolar disorder and I knew exactly what was happening to me. What is happening to me.Jun 25 02:12
schestowitzhumans are overratedJun 25 02:12

schestowitznot a popular thing to doJun 25 02:14
schestowitznor P-CJun 25 02:14
schestowitzlike AphroditesJun 25 02:14
DaemonFC[m]If I want to be a woman there's nothing that will make me a woman, so why bother with fantasizing or whatever it is they do.Jun 25 02:14
schestowitzafaik, reproduction is difficultJun 25 02:14
schestowitzso from a nature/survival POV it's considered an anomalyJun 25 02:14
DaemonFC[m]Personally, I don't care. I don't know why anyone would care.Jun 25 02:14
DaemonFC[m]It was a coin toss and you got what you got.Jun 25 02:14
schestowitzin those cases we can accept some gender ambiguity, and biologists observe this in other species as wellJun 25 02:15
schestowitzthe radical cases are men who pretend to have uterus and PMS etc.Jun 25 02:15

schestowitzYes, the Gates/Epstein arrangement, from what I know, was predominantly to do with Trans-humanism and Depopulation. Many people who met with Epstein explained that he had an obsession with plans to use technology to create a 'superhuman'. He was also critical of Harvard's University's charitable work, explaining to them that they were contributing to 'overpopulation' by doing this. Jun 25 07:17

DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: I'm not surprised to see Technicolor go under, nor am I shocked at the timing. The MP3 patents were, by far, their most valuable.Jun 25 18:55
DaemonFC[m]The company was completely unscrupulous in the way it treated its employees in the Consumer Electronics division. They basically stole my dad's pension.Jun 25 18:56
DaemonFC[m]I was amused that the MP3 patents expired because I figured that Technicolor would be next. That licensing program was the goose that was laying golden eggs.Jun 25 18:57
DaemonFC[m]Ugh, I need to be more organized. Jun 25 18:57
DaemonFC[m]I saved my call in PIN for the bankruptcy court to Untitled Document 2.Jun 25 18:57
DaemonFC[m]Here I was thinking that Tracker was useless.Jun 25 18:58
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: From the people who brought you Untitled Document and Untitled Document 2, comes UNTITLED DOCUMENT 3, starring Liam Neeson. "So what you're telling me is that there is a number and I have to call it, and if I call this number my bills go away?".Jun 25 18:59

MinceR:)Jun 25 19:00
MinceRi'm still waiting for Copy of Untitled Document [1]_FINAL_FINAL_FINALJun 25 19:03
DaemonFC[m]Anyway, Thomson/Technicolor became disinterested in RCA's consumer electronics division and spent a decade running a company that used to go toe to toe with Sony for a lot of things under and finished it off by running the patent troll part of it into the ground and getting their CEO arrested too.Jun 25 19:04
DaemonFC[m]The reason they had such good MP3 support on their hardware in the late 90s when nobody else realized what this was, is that they were hoping to increase the market size for their patents.Jun 25 19:05

DaemonFC[m]I was laughing so hard that when they called my case I had to calm down before I unmuted the phone.Jun 25 20:40
DaemonFC[m]My bankruptcy was approved.Jun 25 20:44
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: I'm over here having a celebration. Jun 25 21:06
DaemonFC[m]This horrible year is over and the only people who ended up really getting screwed over by that attempt on me are the government, the banks, and my ex.Jun 25 21:07
DaemonFC[m]You have to think strategically. 9 moves ahead of the other guy.Jun 25 21:08
DaemonFC[m]Let them underestimate you to their own demise. Jun 25 21:08
MinceRthe year isn't over, thoughJun 25 21:09

DaemonFC[m]Perfect timing. Jun 25 21:09
MinceRicJun 25 21:10
DaemonFC[m]I didn't mean for it to happen precisely on the 12 month mark from my criminal arraignment. It just worked out that way coincidentally.Jun 25 21:10
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: I fucked the state's case up behind the scenes and negotiated it away to a slap on the wrist. Jun 25 21:11
DaemonFC[m]Then threw all of the debt that came out of it into the bankruptcy along with a bunch of medical bills and shit. Jun 25 21:11
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: The punishment comes out to a grand total of piss in a cup a few times and ask my psychiatrist for a note that headed probation "therapy" off at the pass.Jun 25 21:12
DaemonFC[m]By the time we got to December 9th, the probation officer didn't even bother to contest the conversion to unsupervised. Jun 25 21:12
DaemonFC[m]Also, I filed a motion (successfully) to retroactively reduce my fine.Jun 25 21:13
DaemonFC[m]It caught the judge by surprise, but he said "Well, yeah, I see what you're talking about now.".Jun 25 21:13
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: I was sitting on a mountain of bills from the same village that assessed the fine.Jun 25 21:14
DaemonFC[m]Threw it all into the bankruptcy. Fuck them.Jun 25 21:14
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: One of the first movies I was watching with Mandy was some action movie with Gerard Butler.Jun 25 21:15
DaemonFC[m]A bunch of guys armed to the teeth are closing in on them. His dad makes some noise. He says "Why did you do that? Now they know where we are!".Jun 25 21:15
DaemonFC[m]His dad says, "Good. FUCK EM!" and hits a button and a line of claymoore mines and C4 go off.Jun 25 21:16
DaemonFC[m]I told Mandy, "That's exactly what you do. You draw the enemy closer thinking he has you and then you blow him up.".Jun 25 21:16

DaemonFC[m]Cold. Methodical. Thorough. Relentless.Jun 25 21:20
DaemonFC[m]"Sorry. Gotta snap your neck. Just doing my job."Jun 25 21:21
DaemonFC[m]That's not to say, at least I wouldn't say that I enjoy hurting people or things. That really is a sickness. Just that I'll do it if I have to. Maybe I'll feel bad about it if you didn't hurt me, but if it's going to be you or me it's not gonna be me.Jun 25 21:22

DaemonFC[m]It's finally over. Jun 25 21:24
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: Mom had to do something similar. When she got divorced from Gonad, the mortgage was still a joint account, but in the divorce settlement she signed a quit claim deed to the title of the house.Jun 25 21:24
DaemonFC[m]The judge ordered him to refinance it in his name, so he went and financed a new motorcycle, and then said nobody would refi the house because he was overextended.Jun 25 21:25
DaemonFC[m]So he never did. 8 years later, he has a heart attack and the fucker keels over in the living room.Jun 25 21:25
DaemonFC[m]So now his widow gets the house, and moves the entire rotten family into it.Jun 25 21:26
DaemonFC[m]They're all such bums that between like 5-6 adults living there, they can't come up with $540 a month on a mortgage to keep a two story 4 bedroom house, so the bank started up a lawsuit against my mom.Jun 25 21:27
DaemonFC[m]That was the point where she said "Nuh uh." and requested two weeks off unpaid from her boss at work.Jun 25 21:27
DaemonFC[m]It put her $156 under the filing threshold limit for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.Jun 25 21:27

DaemonFC[m]So she threw the house in and the Sheriff evicted the Culleys forthwith, and the bankruptcy also voided out some credit cards, over a hundred thousand dollars in medical bills, and several years of unpaid taxes that the first lawyer she went to said she'd never get rid of.Jun 25 21:29
DaemonFC[m]I told her "Find a new lawyer. If they're over 3 years old, and you actually filed on time for those years, you can get rid of it, along with any and all penalties and interest.".Jun 25 21:29
