| schestowitz | they never got that | May 27 00:16 |
| schestowitz | they just wasted a TON of money on marketing | May 27 00:17 |

| schestowitz | and they kept iterating | May 27 00:17 |
| schestowitz | and still, nobody came... | May 27 00:17 |
| baronhk[m] | No reason. It takes up space on Windows, which already has Windows applications. | May 27 00:17 |

| baronhk[m] | WSL2 still has severe deficits, like not returning memory into Windows space until you exit the entire WSL session. | May 27 00:18 |
| MinceR | some hipsters will want to run WSL and pretend they're using "Linux" :> | May 27 00:18 |
| MinceR | and say "i use and love Linux BUT..." | May 27 00:18 |
| baronhk[m] | So it can grow quite large over time and you don't get very much uptime when you have to keep closing out all your Linux apps to reclaim memory from the pool. | May 27 00:18 |

| baronhk[m] | Pointy Haired Bosses got involved and believed that they could lower operational costs by outsourcing. | May 27 00:21 |
| baronhk[m] | It's still possible to use Windows as a real computer where your data stays with you and if they ever take that away they're screwed. A lot of people are aggravated by having to remove and silence cloud stuff but will just keep ignoring it as long as local computing remains possible. | May 27 00:22 |
| baronhk[m] | I don't like OneDrive for a lot of reasons, but one of the big ones is it's an ongoing expense while local storage is cheap and runs for many years. | May 27 00:22 |

| XRevan86 | schestowitz: Christel resigned before, of course, as a result of the sponsor logo addition. The DNS/2FA thing happens later. | May 27 04:41 |
| schestowitz | what motivated mo | May 27 04:42 |
| schestowitz | tomaw to do it? | May 27 04:42 |
| schestowitz | was this related to her resignation? | May 27 04:42 |
| XRevan86 | schestowitz: Indirectly, as she left an information vacuum after her. Judging by that the staff mocked Andrew for saying that the Board doesn't recognise tomaw, replying that the Board didn't exist… apparently she didn't mention to them that she was a head of staff AND on the Board. | May 27 04:45 |
| XRevan86 | schestowitz: It's obvious that the staff didn't know much about the company operations or even cared for it as they barely even crossed paths while they managed freenode. I think that the staff was pushing for more independence from that company, especially after their only tie to it just resigned. | May 27 04:48 |
| XRevan86 | schestowitz: And since they didn't trust the company (like they don't trust the sponsors and have exclusive access to the donated hardware), I guess they tried to get exclusive access to the domains as well. | May 27 04:50 |
| XRevan86 | schestowitz: Now I don't know why it was so important to maintain that domain access control, but I suspect that it was distrust in the company possibly caused by the logo thing. | May 27 04:54 |
| XRevan86 | Like, if the company put that logo there without consulting anyone and then explained nothing (Christel resigned instead) what else is it capable of? | May 27 04:55 |
| XRevan86 | schestowitz: Another messy aspect of this whole story is Andrew barging into #freenode and saying that he accepts the resignation letter draughts as final and then ignoring what is said back to him. | May 27 05:04 |

Because of this, copyright holders have been taking stringent actions to prevent unauthorized release and downloads of their | May 27 09:52 |
| schestowitz | software, particularly the ROM images of arcades or video games. Nintendo, for example, had sued two emulator websites in 2018 for illegally distributing their copyrighted ROMs. Other companies included security features in their products to prevent unauthorized copying of their software.

| schestowitz | while his SPONSORS from IBM/Red Hat say things like "diversity" | May 27 11:18 |
| schestowitz | instead of "freedom" | May 27 11:18 |
| schestowitz | as if the goals of FSF are not software freedom | May 27 11:18 |

| schestowitz | it's "open" | May 27 11:22 |

| schestowitz | zoobab: if you record, they cannot tell who recorded | May 27 11:23 |

| schestowitz | it'll be funny to see clips of judges readying scripts | May 27 11:26 |

| schestowitz | saying it's "open" because you can watch under a sort of ""NDA"" is not "open" | May 27 11:40 |
| schestowitz | it's just a secretive rubber-stamping court | May 27 11:40 |

| schestowitz | zoobab: this time they got caught with BOTH hands deep in the COOKIE jar | May 27 11:44 |
| schestowitz | and this is our chance to end this illusion that they have legitimacy | May 27 11:44 |
| schestowitz | and if you don't take advantage this time around, it may take years until the next opportunity | May 27 11:45 |
| schestowitz | they know they are watch | May 27 11:45 |
| schestowitz | so they might even upset the apple cart and vote "no" | May 27 11:45 |
| schestowitz | at the very least to save face | May 27 11:45 |
| zoobab | the only question is which court is responsible in case there is wrong doing at BOA | May 27 11:46 |
| schestowitz | You don't change the system by obeying every law this very same system imposes on you | May 27 11:46 |
| schestowitz | they want to protect themselves | May 27 11:46 |
| schestowitz | at least take clips | May 27 11:46 |
| schestowitz | or convert to audio/text | May 27 11:46 |
| zoobab | I don't know how it works in different countries to revoke judges, maybe constitutional courts have to deal with those problems? | May 27 11:46 |
| schestowitz | there are FCC complaints | May 27 11:46 |
| schestowitz | About BoA | May 27 11:47 |
| schestowitz | but that's too slow | May 27 11:47 |
| zoobab | it is, from 2010 | May 27 11:47 |
| schestowitz | the court of public opinion is better | May 27 11:47 |
| schestowitz | get us some scripts from the 'hearing' | May 27 11:47 |
| schestowitz | in haaaaring | May 27 11:47 |
| zoobab | in my belgian UPC complaint of 2015, I was already citing those pending decisions | May 27 11:47 |
| zoobab | I guess the reason why it is taking so long is that either: | May 27 11:48 |
| zoobab | * the court is divided on what to decide | May 27 11:48 |
| zoobab | * the court is busy with other cases | May 27 11:48 |
| zoobab | because | May 27 11:48 |
| zoobab | those BoA complaints were prior to Stjerna's complaint of 2017 | May 27 11:48 |
| zoobab | but they are definitely on the agenda for this year, probably blowing away the UPC project as well | May 27 11:49 |
| zoobab | that's what we said in our open letter to the Bundestag, wait for those decisions, but they were constrained by Brexit | May 27 11:49 |

| schestowitz | [08:30] <schestowitz__> some people in LF are OK | May 27 11:57 |
| schestowitz | [08:30] <schestowitz__> but fewer of them left over time | May 27 11:57 |
| schestowitz | [08:30] <schestowitz__> the seats are for sale, literally | May 27 11:57 |
| schestowitz | [08:31] <schestowitz__> laid off withotu notice all linux.com staff | May 27 11:57 |

| schestowitz | [08:32] <schestowitz__> we need rebuttals though | May 27 11:58 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <schestowitz__> the media is imbalanced | May 27 11:58 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> it is not surprising that in the vacuum of leadership at FSF (which ironically just certified a router as RYF-approved that requires binary blobs to boot) that people started their own foundations to replace it | May 27 11:58 |
| schestowitz | the courrs are bias and expensive, zoobab | May 27 11:58 |
| schestowitz | they control them in several ways | May 27 11:58 |
| schestowitz | we can do activism also outside the "legal" system | May 27 11:58 |
| schestowitz | which they bought and paid for | May 27 11:58 |
| zoobab | way cheaper | May 27 11:58 |
| zoobab | they were complaints against OFE and EU lobbying from american corporations (IBM/LF) | May 27 11:59 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <schestowitz__> 100% botched smear campaigns almost | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <schestowitz__> and I'm told Twitter did the same | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <schestowitz__> trying to replace things is common | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <schestowitz__> not an FSF-unique problem | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> indeed not | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:33] <schestowitz__> people vying for power from within | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:34] <schestowitz__> like many who defected away from Debian | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:34] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> but a lot of people are mad that things aren't done at FSF so much anymore | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | [08:34] <schestowitz__> we encouraged more federation and collaboration | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | zoobab: you might want to see this about IBM: | May 27 12:00 |
| schestowitz | recent discussion | May 27 12:00 |
| zoobab | look at the swpat issue in the US, FSF is powerless | May 27 12:00 |
| zoobab | I have seen the layoffs posts | May 27 12:00 |
| zoobab | they excuse to buy RH for Openshift with "Hybrid cloud" was laughable | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | yeah | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | Red Hat in trouble | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:34] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (i do find it ironic that most of the office staff at LF use macs though) | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:34] <schestowitz__> instead there's lots of infighting | May 27 12:01 |
| zoobab | still have to see in practice | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:34] <schestowitz__> and the monopolies use their money to encourage the infighting | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:36] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> that seems to largely be IBM | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:36] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> IBM mostly gives money to LF so that they can try to buy their projects into LF initiatives | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:36] <schestowitz__> they do | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <schestowitz__> all this word stuff is IBM | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <schestowitz__> it came from IBM | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <schestowitz__> they no longer even hide it | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> xxxx basically became the distro of choice for LF projects because it's independent | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <schestowitz__> in recent months they got sloppy | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> if you look at CNCF for example, or LF-Edge projects | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> IBM shows up and tries to cram their shit | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and it gets rebuffed | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> because nobody wants it :D | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> so really, IBM is spending money and still losing | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:37] <schestowitz__> They get edged out | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <schestowitz__> more layers of complexity | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <schestowitz__> like openshift | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> yeah, LF projects don't want that | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <schestowitz__> more LOCs != better | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> they want simple | May 27 12:01 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <schestowitz__> I still use lots of CLI stuff | May 27 12:02 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <schestowitz__> some I code myself | May 27 12:02 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> which is why its xxxx running on windmills | May 27 12:02 |
| schestowitz | [08:38] <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and not redhat | May 27 12:02 |

| schestowitz | [08:39] <schestowitz__> it already is | May 27 12:02 |

| BaronVladimirHar | $10,000 for a sleep study to see if you can get a CPAP machine which will cost you a lot more than that. Most of those machines run proprietary software and getting the settings changed means a new sleep study. | May 27 18:28 |
| BaronVladimirHar | I came across an article the other day about some open source project to reverse engineer these machines and change their settings on your own. | May 27 18:29 |
| BaronVladimirHar | It's dangerous, but people do it. | May 27 18:29 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Mom's ex-husband had and old one and when the motor started going out, he opened it up to change the settings with a screwdriver or something, and the doctor asked what his settings were later when the machine crapped out on him. | May 27 18:30 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Mom woke up because there was smoke everywhere in the room from the motor burning out, and he was sleeping through it. | May 27 18:30 |
| BaronVladimirHar | So it told the doctor, "I don't know. I just changed it from pffffff to WHOOOOOSH!". | May 27 18:30 |
| BaronVladimirHar | I mean, that sounds like something I would do. You know, "I'm not giving that fucking doctor $10,000 to figure out what to do with this thing!". Crack it open. | May 27 18:31 |

| BaronVladimirHar | Which is almost double what it would cost to get them an apartment even in that market. | May 27 19:03 |
| BaronVladimirHar | They pay that much because as soon as the federal money runs out, they plan to go back to doing absolutely nothing for them. | May 27 19:03 |
| BaronVladimirHar | Right now, Lake County is putting them up in motels, which is what ran me and Mandy out of the one we were in. | May 27 19:04 |
| BaronVladimirHar | As soon as the manager heard the government had to put them somewhere, she raised the rate from $1,080 a month to something closer to $1,400. | May 27 19:05 |
| BaronVladimirHar | If it was $1,080 a month I would have just stayed. I mean, hell, the electric and heat run your total costs up to nearly that anyway. | May 27 19:06 |
| BaronVladimirHar | We're not living too close to the edge. I started up a nice little retirement account for Mandy back in late March and Walmart started matching the funds this month. | May 27 19:07 |
| BaronVladimirHar | I was talking to some people he worked with and they're not even taking the entire match. | May 27 19:08 |

| kingoffrance | the point there is just legal is letter, law is spirit | May 27 20:54 |
| kingoffrance | so a thing may be : one or other, both, neither | May 27 20:55 |
| kingoffrance | note law applies to morals | May 27 20:56 |
| kingoffrance | legal very much has nothing to do with morals | May 27 20:56 |

| kingoffrance | yes, that is archaic, but a very important switcheroo IMO | May 27 20:56 |
| kingoffrance | basically without this separation, there needs to be some term to indicate | May 27 20:57 |
| kingoffrance | so i am ok with the switcheroo -- IF someone has a new term that is equivalent | May 27 20:57 |
| kingoffrance | anyways, back to usps, yes most the comments seemed of that nature | May 27 20:58 |
| kingoffrance | i could find more sources if someone doesnt consider that authoritative or whatever, but it is succinct. if you know what to look for yuo can find this elsewhere | May 27 20:59 |

| kingoffrance | "as it is administered in the courts" point there is whatever courts/whoever happens to be doing today, right or wrong -- appearance, formalism, etc. | May 27 21:02 |
| kingoffrance | thats basically why there must be such a separation -- else you get court/gov/whoever is infallible, can do no wrong, etc. | May 27 21:02 |
