17:53:47 psydroid2; schestowitz-pi2: there is no reason for an e-book managemer to touch the files without the user's explicit permission
17:54:30 schestowitz[TR2]; "
17:54:30 schestowitz[TR2]; I did a little more investigation and found that "ebook-viewer" is writing meta-data under "Miscellaneous" "calibre_bookmarks.txt" even though bookmarks are controlled via the database. Deleting this entire entry via "edit book" has no effect and the book marks are still present because they are in the DB.
17:54:30 schestowitz[TR2]; The content written also includes: access time stamps, Book Title, and my User ID. It's written as JSON Base64.
17:54:30 schestowitz[TR2]; This should not be happening!
17:54:32 schestowitz[TR2]; "

17:54:52 psydroid2; https://kovidgoyal.net/
17:54:56 schestowitz[TR2]; "
17:54:56 schestowitz[TR2]; Why is this issue considered "invalid"? An EPUB viewer is expected to view EPUB files, not silently modify them. This is not a good default behaviour because it is surprising. Given the number of users with a similar issue, I don't understand why this surprising behaviour is still the default.
17:54:56 schestowitz[TR2]; "
17:55:35 schestowitz[TR2]; months ago:
17:55:36 schestowitz[TR2]; "
17:55:36 schestowitz[TR2]; Frankly it is quite insane that a viewer goes around modifying files and the team doesn't even consider the possibility of it being inappropriate.
17:55:36 schestowitz[TR2]; Such behavior goes so much against professionalism in software, I'd expect it from shady proprietary software.
17:55:36 schestowitz[TR2]; Come on, at least one option to disable it? There are serious people using this software for serious purposes, for some of us moving bookmarks around is not even a desirable feature, it's an actual hindrance because the file changes.

17:56:47 schestowitz[TR2]; in that sense, yes
17:56:47 psydroid2; even on Android you have free software like Librera nowadays

19:28:38 schestowitz[TR2]; after 20+ years
19:28:59 schestowitz[TR2]; so a lot of "economic" growth is not

19:29:23 schestowitz[TR2]; grocers asking you to do everything

22:39:06 schestowitz[TR2]; mb and guess) a lot less than that. So if they are shutting this program down, it's probably because the savings they saw from outsourcing retail clerks to a third world call center were somehow not high enough.

22:40:18 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2]: Just Walk Out and "Lady in the Philippines on an iPad" absolutely are the result of Democrat shitholes being so expensive that $20 an hour is necessary as a minimum wage.
22:40:25 schestowitz[TR2]; "Startups have also created their own versions of Just Walk Out and tested them at retailers including Aldi and Dollar General."
22:41:03 DaemonFC; When you pay people at Taco Bell $20 an hour, you have to raise the price of a bean burrito to like $5.99, and then the customers leave and nobody has a job anymore because Democrats.
22:41:09 DaemonFC; So what do you think will happen here?
22:41:17 schestowitz[TR2]; "The company touted the technology, which allowed customers to bypass traditional checkouts, as an achievement powered entirely by computer vision.

22:59:27 DaemonFC; Stupidity with a firearm was comic relief in the 1960s.
22:59:57 DaemonFC; Apparently a few days ago, four blacks got out of two cars and exchanged 50 rounds no more than 10 feet from one another, and then sped off when the police noticed.
23:00:00 DaemonFC; Nobody was hurt.
23:00:06 DaemonFC; :)
23:00:54 DaemonFC; The police swept up the shell casings and the only thing that got hurt were two glass windows which somehow cost $30,000, but it was a government building so of course they do.
23:01:08 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^
23:01:09 DaemonFC; :D
23:01:19 eidolon; Aiming crook wristed and sideways isn't good for accuracy.
23:01:47 DaemonFC; The cops reported that two of the suspects were armed with handguns, and the ones shooting back had long rifles.
23:02:03 DaemonFC; So you can't do the "stupid *****er aim" with a rifle, can you?
23:02:37 DaemonFC; Regardless, they managed to exchange over 50 rounds at ten feet and hit nothing except two government windows that each cost $15,000 somehow.
23:02:42 eidolon; There's probably some rifle equivalent.
23:03:39 DaemonFC; This is why making me take firearms safety classes doesn't help. I'm not the one having shootouts in the streets with illegal gun no foid card four felons.
23:04:09 DaemonFC; And with the firearm training, the state is making sure the people who get a conceal and carry permit can actually hit what they shoot at.
23:04:36 DaemonFC; Under the standards for passing this course, you should be able to hit two targets at that range with no more than three attempts.
23:04:52 DaemonFC; (because they're moving while they shoot back)
23:05:08 DaemonFC; (so it's a little harder than a course, but you should definitely hit one of them while emptying an entire clip)
23:05:56 DaemonFC; I laughed when I watched "The Matrix" and he says he's seen people "empty entire clips and hit nothing but air" while shooting at Agents.
23:06:09 DaemonFC; I said, "Try having white people shoot at the agents." at the movie theater.
23:06:15 DaemonFC; Several people around me laughed.
23:06:25 eidolon; :D
23:06:34 eidolon; The state-mandated training is more a barrier of time & cost.
23:06:44 DaemonFC; Yeah.
23:06:50 DaemonFC; It costs a couple hundred dollars.
23:06:57 DaemonFC; 16 hours at first. 8 hours every 5 years.
23:07:54 eidolon; So culturally they win on that front, because it is either time / cost preventative or discourages them otherwise.
23:08:08 DaemonFC; Yeah, procrastination.
23:08:26 DaemonFC; Then even if you get it, most places have "no gun" signs on the door, which makes it a crime to go in there.
23:08:43 eidolon; And then afterwards, you are under constant scrutiny.
23:08:54 DaemonFC; Which the people breaking 5 felony laws to illegally carry really give a fuck about.
23:09:01 DaemonFC; When they go in there to commit armed robbery.
23:09:02 DaemonFC; :)
23:09:33 DaemonFC; There was a guy that committed armed robbery on a Subway and fired a bullet into the floor.

23:20:00 DaemonFC; :P
23:20:21 DaemonFC; Anyway, there's no rule of law here.
23:20:40 DaemonFC; Because it's the blacks committing 86% of the crimes and the courts don't do anything with them because raycist.
23:21:09 DaemonFC; And then they figure out nobody is going to touch it and escalate until they murder someone.
23:21:34 MinceR; there's probably no rule of law anywhere
23:21:49 DaemonFC; If there was no potential punishment.
23:21:53 MinceR; in that the people in charge of countries are not responsible to anyone and laws are not enforced against them
23:21:59 DaemonFC; If everyone was disarmed and the police didn't work most crime.
23:22:12 DaemonFC; Then there'd be a lot of people out there doing whatever they hell they wanted to.
23:22:30 DaemonFC; You see that in Democrat cities because it's where this is closest to being the official state of things.
23:22:41 DaemonFC; Everyone is disarmed except the criminals.
23:22:44 DaemonFC; Who don't get punished.

23:29:40 DaemonFC; But taking the classified documents couldn't be pardoned because it's a crime to possess them after his term expired.
23:29:55 DaemonFC; The act of taking them isn't the part they need to prove. Just having them is a crime.

00:05:33 CrystalMath; <@DaemonFC> The act of taking them isn't the part they need to prove. Just having them is a crime. <- i see no reason why this can't be pardoned
00:06:10 CrystalMath; oh, but, of course, presuming Trump wins again and pardons himself, OR someone else pardons him
00:06:39 CrystalMath; Trump in the first term can't pardon himself for it because it's too early until it's too late

00:19:39 DaemonFC; Yeah, if he wins again he could just pardon himself for the time he had the documents when he wasn't the President.

01:05:32 DaemonFC; > In San Francisco, it's so bad that landlords do what's called "eviction by fire". All the rent controlled units seem to burn down and the city deliberately doesn't solve it. Then the landlord pays the fines for not fixing the building fast enough, until he's sure that the person who has a right to come back when it's fixed is really gone and is not coming back.
01:05:34 DaemonFC; > In some cases, it gets downright nasty, like some Korean woman who bought a unit that she knew had an AIDS survivor from the 1980s living there with rent control and now she's doing all sorts of illegal and nasty things to try to pry him out of his home.

02:30:50 DaemonFC; Like, they'll throw as many credit cards at people as they can pay off and nobody really cares how many you have until you burn one.
02:31:37 DaemonFC; But Bank of America is apparently really really risk-averse so when they see a fraud alert it's not like the other banks where all you have to do is shoot them a text with a picture of your driver's license.
02:32:29 DaemonFC; They call you at the numbers on the fraud alert and want to talk to you and ask you identity questions and your full SSN and to read back a code they texted you and they want to see your license, then they take like a month and a half and you have to talk to 11 people I guess.
02:34:10 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2]: Basically the law says if they issue a credit card to someone who stole your identity, they're responsible for eating the fraud.
02:34:31 DaemonFC; So they don't want to have some criminal pretending to be you get past them and load up $15,000 on the card or something.

14:48:45 schestowitz[TR2]; yes
14:48:52 schestowitz[TR2]; thanks, that affirms what i thought
14:48:54 schestowitz[TR2]; something like this
14:48:59 schestowitz[TR2]; in 2020 we started doing them
14:49:11 schestowitz[TR2]; summing up years' worth in long videos
14:49:14 schestowitz[TR2]; e.g. issues in LF
14:49:34 schestowitz[TR2]; now it's ok to take stooock periodically of several newer developments, not one at a time
14:50:31 psydruid; I think RMS would appreciate that too, but I'm not sure he does anything other than read text
14:50:47 schestowitz[TR2]; (we might get trolled in irc this week due to publication of sex scandals)
14:51:02 schestowitz[TR2]; psydruid: webm is ok with him
14:51:11 schestowitz[TR2]; whether he has time to watch videos is another matter completely
14:52:11 schestowitz[TR2]; they used irc to lie about pocock
14:52:23 schestowitz[TR2]; cheating on his wife with some other married woman
14:52:25 schestowitz[TR2]; totally false
14:52:32 schestowitz[TR2]; a Google employee spread this lie
14:52:48 schestowitz[TR2]; the militants made up a person! http://techrights.org/n/2023/10/30/Free_Software_Hostile_Militants_Created_Fictional_and_Defamator.shtml
14:53:07 schestowitz[TR2]; their tactic seems to be
14:53:13 schestowitz[TR2]; if someone speaks about sex scandals
14:53:19 schestowitz[TR2]; then try to pain that someone as a pervert
14:53:23 schestowitz[TR2]; make something up

14:55:03 psydruid; "be very evil" is the motto
14:55:28 TR News; Using animals as POLITICAL PROPS. F U, China. ☞ https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/22/us/san-francisco-mayor-gives-panda-diplomacy-a-try.html
14:56:42 TR News; Communist Party of China is like Monsanto. If the panda gives birth, no matter where, China owns the new panda. Sort of like Monsanto with GMO/seeds.
14:57:15 TR News; China "values" pandas because it uses them to silence critics. A form of blackmail, more or less...
14:57:50 TR News; The only bear perceived to be more valuable than panda is Pooh(Tin)
14:58:20 TR News; There is nothing cute about "panda diplomacy" and the animals are caged hostages
15:00:07 TR News; Plus, panda captivity in Beijing zoo is very notorious. Hot, neglect, small habitat. China treats the animals worse than the countries it "lends" them to. Pooh wants "panda monopoly"; make some panda bear cubs outside of China and let them stay, break the monopoly. That would also help conservation of the species.
15:00:50 TR News; The media pandering over "panda diplomacy" is kowtowing, appeasement, and misunderstanding of the conditions of pandas in Chinese zoos.
15:01:23 TR News; At least China doesn't eat panda (not anymore) like it does almost every other animal
15:04:03 TR News; But the point is, China is now actively helping (financing and exporting weapons to) Putin; enough of this flowery "panda diplomacy" narrative. The CPC kills people in Europe. Maybe the ones using the arms are cruel Cossacks and Chechens, but check where the weaponry comes from (Lil' Kim and Pooh-tin the Bear, his primary handler). This is a fantastic example of the POLITICAL press shooting its own feet. It's not about race/racism.
15:05:50 TR News; Water cannons and guns "MADE IN CHINA" are used for aggression in southeast Asia, but those aren't used against "beautiful" and "valuable" Europeans who are "white" ("unworthy victims"), so the media is upset at Putin, but not his backers to the east. The latter is, by definition, "racism".
15:06:06 TR News; Putin is not "raceless".
15:07:01 TR News; If the media covered ISIS like it covers China, we'd hear terms like "hostage diplomacy" and "hostage trade agreements"
15:08:49 TR News; That same lousy, villainous media has the audacity to portray TikTok as tool of free speech even when presented with unequivocal evidence that TikTok crushes speech and takes instructions from Beijing, based on CPC standards and objectives. One example of many: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-49826155
15:10:22 TR News; Don't let "racism" become an obstacle to reporting of facts. Racism is racism when it's done for the sake of unfair discrimination, not tied to underlying facts. If you turn down a job candidate for being utterly shit (technically or as a person), it's not an "ism", it is just quality control/selection.
15:11:35 TR News; Companies should not hire the person whom they fear most in case that person is turned down. This is what social control media brigading leads to. Fake outrage, based on non-facts.

15:53:10 TR News; "Dream on. Nobody goes against the corporate RTO objective and gets to keep their job at IBM. Plan for the worst and start looking for your next gig. Working there must be like living with the person you just broke up with, or something. Time to embrace the "Quiet Quitter" work ethic - doing the bare minimum & not giving them another second of your time past 7hrs (with an hour lunch)." https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1saaoQTU

15:54:04 schestowitz[TR2]; "
15:54:04 schestowitz[TR2]; They saw the 'great sickness' as an easy opportunity to loosen up things and let folks move about the country and the World and take their jobs with them. I'd wager a good number of these folks were mid to late career and more financially well-off with hefty pay packages etc.
15:54:04 schestowitz[TR2]; IBM studied this & realized how easy it'd be to cull those folks with an RTO mandate, which gets them out of having to pay out anything and reduces payroll, because the majority will not give up the new house they overpaid for to make a physical move back to another overpriced home at 2x the interest rate, just to keep their job and go to an IBM office.
15:54:06 schestowitz[TR2]; They can easily backfill those jobs with less expensive people, or more likely just pile more work onto the folks who remain ... meanwhile IBM customers are wondering WTF is going on and why their quality of service is in the toilet.
15:54:10 schestowitz[TR2]; All about preserving 'shareholder value' at the expense of customers and employees.
15:54:12 schestowitz[TR2]; "
15:54:26 schestowitz[TR2]; "
15:54:28 schestowitz[TR2]; Realistically, the home office ship has been sailing for IBM for decades. The staff for just about any project is randomly distributed across different states and sometimes different continents. Communication is via e-mail, instant messaging, web meetings and conference calls. If you want collaboration in a physical office, then it should have been set up that way from the start.
15:54:33 schestowitz[TR2]; So the only achievable effect of this RTO move will be to force employees to quit . That's not much of a goal. It doesn't help the business make money...it only stops the business from bleeding cash. It's an understandable action, I suppose, given IBM's corporate objectives over the years, but it's a lousy way to run a company.
