01:12 schestowitz; @Doc Edward Morbius very easy to collect it, we can require anual subscription instead of monthly. Thats 18 eur per year. Now, if somebody does not pay, then he will have access only to the page of downloading his data and/or destroying the account. Hence the user can download the data and move away to other pod but he wont be allowed to continue posting on this pod unless he pays.

01:12 schestowitz; Yall need to realize that collecting money is not enough. Running a pod also costs time (and nerves); not just for the technical aspects of keeping it up, but also in dealing with users, reacting to feedback and reports, legally assess said reports, etc. The bigger the pod, the more work you need to put into it.
01:12 schestowitz; Its totally fine and understandable if Lukas doesnt want to provide this any longer. He didnt say hes looking for donations. He said he doesnt want to run this pod anymore, hed just transfer it to someone else if they want to take it on.

Once the data is lost it was a disaster and would never want it repeating. Here if nothing works I need to find a way to download atleast profile data. Loosing comments is really painful but we cant help it.

09:44 Techrights-sec; Can the first paragraph be expanded with a few words about the illegal faking?
09:44 Techrights-sec; The lik goes to a less than serious clarification. For Gemini, among others,
09:44 Techrights-sec; it would be very useful to have a few words reminindg about their illegal
09:44 Techrights-sec; move(s).
09:44 Techrights-sec; thanks
09:45 schestowitz-TR2; draft
09:45 schestowitz-TR2; ok
09:45 Techrights-sec; Also, in general animated images ought to have fininte loops, but that's
09:45 Techrights-sec; about appearance.
09:59 Techrights-sec; much improved summary, it allows those jumping in toe the page, especially
09:59 Techrights-sec; via Gemini, to get oriented
09:59 schestowitz-TR2; thanks, I am still working on it while it's processing the video
09:59 schestowitz-TR2; writing one good post is not enough
09:59 schestowitz-TR2; as team upc uses quantity to bury the facts
10:01 Techrights-sec; "baffled them with bullshit" is part of the 'fake it till you make it' ideology
10:01 Techrights-sec; Many in the so-called business community admired that and aspire to emulate it.
10:01 schestowitz-TR2; it is a mentally tiring, exhausting battle

11:05 schestowitz-TR2; not black and white like spalling mistake
11:05 schestowitz-TR2; in the long term, you get judges by articles
11:05 schestowitz-TR2; tweets are dificult to even find
11:05 schestowitz-TR2; trumopp lost all of his

11:05 schestowitz-TR2; reminder: at one point I lost all my 900k+ tweeets
11:05 schestowitz-TR2; it was profs against upc who broiught me back
11:06 Techrights-sec; s/spalling/speling/
11:06 Techrights-sec; ;)
11:06 Techrights-sec; yes I recall, twitter is not in tech to help anyone or make tech better, rather
11:06 Techrights-sec; the opposite. Strife drives engagement / additctive e=behavior which in turn
11:06 Techrights-sec; farms more money and, worse, more influence.
11:06 schestowitz-TR2; pricisely
11:06 schestowitz-TR2; one point of merit:
11:06 schestowitz-TR2; 1. we did not know this before
11:06 schestowitz-TR2; 2. it was not this bad before
11:06 schestowitz-TR2; those two are connected
11:06 schestowitz-TR2; as the shift was made to NOT let people who they followed, SERIALLY
11:07 schestowitz-TR2; the "engagement" based "hey hi" became seductive from a business POV
11:07 schestowitz-TR2; over time more people realised that getting them emotionally caught up was the goal
11:18 schestowitz-TR2; rianne on phone with mom atm
11:18 schestowitz-TR2; but when she is done I want to record things, though I lack topics tbh
11:19 Techrights-sec; reach out to FFII, APRIL, etc?
11:20 schestowitz-TR2; afaict, april has not been active lately, at le
11:20 schestowitz-TR2; ast not in english
11:20 schestowitz-TR2; *least
11:20 Techrights-sec; it is mainly active in French, but there can be collaboration nonetheless.
11:21 schestowitz-TR2; i will ask zoobab, he is a francophone
11:26 schestowitz-TR2; fwiw, any attempts at "media outreach" on EPO matters
11:26 schestowitz-TR2; felt on deaf ears
11:26 schestowitz-TR2; even poolitical outreach
11:26 schestowitz-TR2; esp. in recent years
11:26 schestowitz-TR2; too many people misled, corrupted, or both
11:28 Techrights-sec; ack
11:28 Techrights-sec; right, media is beholden to M$ directly and indrectly, and many other tightly
11:28 Techrights-sec; related problems. However APRIL and MuyLinux are not mainstream media.
11:28 schestowitz-TR2; goes without saying, we have the github exclusives
11:28 schestowitz-TR2; because medeia was gaslighting victims
11:28 schestowitz-TR2; in the same way nytimes and bezos post (pre-bezos) gaslit manning
11:28 Techrights-sec; yes and they all turned down snowden, too, and have been active in attacks agains
11:28 Techrights-sec; t assange.
11:30 schestowitz-TR2; therer are sayinga long the lines of
11:30 schestowitz-TR2; markets opening up when you try to asuppress something
11:30 schestowitz-TR2; we already saw that by refusing to handlke complaints internally
11:30 schestowitz-TR2; NSA or booz allen basically left Snowden with no other (motal) choice
11:30 schestowitz-TR2; similarly, censoring people in irc etc. can backfire
11:30 schestowitz-TR2; they will just speak out against you somewhere else
11:33 Techrights-sec; snowden studied earlier attempts at calling out illegal government activities
11:33 Techrights-sec; he also sent out feelers to be sure. His management left him no other options
11:33 Techrights-sec; than the one he took.
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; yes, I remember about him studying the Thomas Drake case
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; maybe also Kirk Wiebe
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; not sure about the latter
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; Weibe never had much impact at the end
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; Maybe Drake still works for Apple
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; over the years I sent many emaiuls internally that would age well
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; and vidicate me
11:35 schestowitz-TR2; regarding bad thiings we did in our company
11:43 schestowitz-TR2; restarting
11:43 schestowitz-TR2; very mysterious, how it can stop fro 2 or 3 days, then come back, even every hour
11:59 Techrights-sec; I am not sure of the cause either, I presume it is one of the PHP scripts.
11:59 schestowitz-TR2; lost in a sea of other requests until php or apache (or both) crap their pants, which can take minutes more
12:03 Techrights-sec; the CPU utilization for some processes grows gradually out of control and spreads
12:03 Techrights-sec; to other processes untill Apache2 chokes
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; I still think a LOT about the future of our site tehnically
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; one thing I want to resolve first is joindiaspora
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; I think from a technical POV it'a a pile of shit
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; develkoped by nyoung sudents with RoR
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; because it was fast and easy
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; I want to think gemini will grow fast enough
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; and then the www compionent becomes less important
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; and can be turned into mere files
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; then distributed as files
12:05 schestowitz-TR2; no master/flave db setup
12:09 Techrights-sec; yep
12:09 Techrights-sec; yes, static files make distribution and decentralization practical.
12:09 Techrights-sec; Gemini pages are a little more standalone than WWW, so the writing style
12:09 Techrights-sec; needs minor adjustments to include just a slight amount more information
12:09 Techrights-sec; for context each time. Especially as new people arrive.
12:09 Techrights-sec; There are several ways possible but the dealbreaker is that Gemini cannot
12:09 Techrights-sec; serve video files, they are too big.
12:09 schestowitz-TR2; speaking of which, do you know how the gemini side can extract full video
12:09 schestowitz-TR2; title rather than file name? the issue is that iut gets that from the server
12:09 schestowitz-TR2; but I can alter the server side (http) to include something from exif
12:09 schestowitz-TR2; btw, gemini is now distributed outwards, file by file, partition by partition
12:09 schestowitz-TR2; to a USB kley
12:09 schestowitz-TR2; I can make another one for you and mail it to you
12:09 schestowitz-TR2; but I suspect customs don't like USB keys in parcels
12:10 Techrights-sec; They don't like anything from the UK these days. Rsync would be a better option
12:10 Techrights-sec; for the non-volatile directories
12:11 schestowitz-TR2; I should send a USB key with a cannoabis picture printer on the casing ;0(
12:11 schestowitz-TR2; their minds will be BLOWN
12:11 Techrights-sec; LOL

12:12 Techrights-sec; /dev/root 29G 11G 18G 39% /
12:13 schestowitz-TR2; yes, ample room for expansion and the OS has years left in it, hence I waited for
12:13 schestowitz-TR2; the state to be finalised, then "glacier" it
12:15 schestowitz-TR2; tbh, I don't mind 'shilling' gemini all day long
12:15 schestowitz-TR2; like I did Linus when it was a LOT smaller
12:15 schestowitz-TR2; maybe gemini will be subverted like "Linux" was
12:15 schestowitz-TR2; and the www alike
12:15 schestowitz-TR2; atm, in the bortzmeyer page, we're top of the list and have been for week
12:15 schestowitz-TR2; since recovering from that downtime
12:16 Techrights-sec; m$ does not let any project go unmolested no matter how small a project
12:16 Techrights-sec; congratulations
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; look at it like this:
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; we develop some toolsets
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; I know some mpeople picked bits of these
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; and hopefully cnn et al can follow
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; npr also
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; they do value access to content enough to maske text-only pages
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; or very minimal markupo
12:17 schestowitz-TR2; they could use the extra audience
12:18 Techrights-sec; NPR already has a text site but they are severly compromised financially to bill
12:18 schestowitz-TR2; that is a CONTWNT problem
12:18 schestowitz-TR2; more so than a TECHJNICAL problem

12:21 schestowitz-TR2; first, what command line tool converts file x into exif field y of file x?
12:21 schestowitz-TR2; I can change things ti present extra info oin videois
12:21 schestowitz-TR2; gemini can then fetch these too
12:23 Techrights-sec; nothing converts but there is exiftool which can read or edit EXIF metadata
12:23 Techrights-sec; in a target file. There are also modules for Perl and presumably Python.
12:23 Techrights-sec; The Gemini protocol doesn't handle large files due to several bugs. I'm not sure
12:23 Techrights-sec; that the necessary changes to the protocol will happen.
12:24 schestowitz-TR2; gemini is not for videos
12:24 schestowitz-TR2; this is Ok

12:24 schestowitz-TR2; jake or sky jake mor whatever tries to support and blend a mix of specs
12:26 Techrights-sec; Yes, his client does several protocols.
12:26 Techrights-sec; Packaging of the clients is the biggest obstacle which I see to adoptions
12:26 Techrights-sec; currently.
12:26 Techrights-sec; Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) would require a daemon on the main server.
12:27 schestowitz-TR2; imho, https is too compromised to do video
12:27 schestowitz-TR2; and gemini clients should send video daata to actual media players
12:27 schestowitz-TR2; kristall almost succeeds at playing them inside the client itself
12:27 schestowitz-TR2; through qparts, I think
12:27 schestowitz-TR2; at the moment we have no easy way to "skip" tol middle of video when playing or s

12:27 schestowitz-TR2; don't know how gulagtube and others implement this
12:28 Techrights-sec; That is held back by the OS upgrade obstacle.
12:28 Techrights-sec; THey have implemented a full video player in javascript, as far as I can tell.
