08:42 schestowitz-TR2; backing up pi this morning

08:42 schestowitz-TR2; I've been managing to post far faster

08:42 schestowitz-TR2; I am also adding domains to camerlcase PM

08:42 schestowitz-TR2; today around 8pm JD shutd wown

08:42 schestowitz-TR2; yay!

08:42 schestowitz-TR2; forcing me to do what I probabl should have dione years ago

08:44 Techrights-sec; social control media is a real time sink

08:45 schestowitz-TR2; more so in recent years, as fewer and fewer people seem to have even "used" it

12:00 schestowitz-TR2; video processing, working out in meantime

12:00 schestowitz-TR2; I have expaonded it

12:00 schestowitz-TR2; I sort of hope that even a few people will consider doing the same

12:00 schestowitz-TR2; and it will become a "thing"

4 PM, March 4

16:07 schestowitz-TR2; Iam tweaking some code to post directly to IRC

16:07 schestowitz-TR2; no social control media

16:07 Techrights-sec; nice

16:16 schestowitz-TR2; done

16:16 schestowitz-TR2; goodbye posts for tuxmachines and techrights issued

16:16 schestowitz-TR2; I will now change remaining code

16:16 schestowitz-TR2; ssorry,, I mean schestowitz rather than techrights

16:16 schestowitz-TR2; there was never a techrights account

16:16 Techrights-sec; TM too?

16:17 schestowitz-TR2; TM will likely to be back through another post when the export becomes possible

16:17 schestowitz-TR2; but either way the followers won't be in that pod but in birdsite

16:17 schestowitz-TR2; and even those are not so crucial

16:17 schestowitz-TR2; I don't want to post stuff with hashtags anymore

16:17 schestowitz-TR2; hastags are so 2010

16:38 schestowitz-TR2; see git

16:38 schestowitz-TR2; I think it's all set now

5 PM, March 4

17:06 schestowitz-TR2; i see

17:06 schestowitz-TR2; i might roll back one day

17:06 schestowitz-TR2; or change back a little

17:06 schestowitz-TR2; for now leave the other file as is, i might undo mny change to them via text editor later

17:06 schestowitz-TR2; the changes I made to tuxurl were very minor, if you compared last revision to the one before that

17:06 schestowitz-TR2; literally I just removed preceding # and then removed the 3 hastags to go there by default

17:07 Techrights-sec; ack

17:07 Techrights-sec; tidied version pushed to Git

17:07 Techrights-sec; scripts need to be readable

17:07 Techrights-sec; Also a single instance of sed is probably noticeably faster than dozens

17:07 Techrights-sec; of repeated calls

17:07 Techrights-sec; ack

17:07 Techrights-sec; couldn't - the line was a mile long.

17:07 Techrights-sec; it did not fit in one terminal window at the same time

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; this script waas always just a nasty hack witrh technical debt :-)

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; thanks for turning that into something useful

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; there's a chance we will find some way to integrate those thinggs into gemini somehow

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; now sure how

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; just sayin'

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; it would be nice to have rss aggregaotor for all those gemlogs with their xml files

17:10 Techrights-sec; np

17:10 Techrights-sec; excellent

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; I've just thrown tons of stuff off my hands

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; the idea is to try to write articles instead of blurbs

17:10 schestowitz-TR2; like I had done prior to 2009

17:18 schestowitz-TR2; here is one thing I can tell for sure

17:18 schestowitz-TR2; and to use an analogy I used earlier with rianne

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; she called it train to bousan

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; the korean film

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; I probably spell it wrong

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; if you see many people leaving the train

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; no point still sitting there waiting foer the final destination

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; I go off the train before it's all the way down at 0

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; this is why I am hesitant to even resume on any of these sites

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; I removed MINDS also

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; the comments there were horrendous

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; in gneeral, there was no joys (for years) associated with reading comments on those platforms

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; and you hardly learned anything from them

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; if you got into twitter fights thwen you could have longer "conversations" there

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; but kit's not irc

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; and it's likie 10 times harder to keep track of what goes on

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; due to threading

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; UI time delays

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; and some other factors

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; tbh, I hope society will wean more people off 'mobile' 'phones'

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; those are even more restrictive than Windows

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; in my personal site Im did 5 posts in 24 hours

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; total published 2,122

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; so if I need a more political outlet I can use long form

17:19 schestowitz-TR2; and not bg twitter to forgive, or ask people to not shut down some instance or pod or...

17:19 Techrights-sec; ack

17:19 Techrights-sec; the problem there is that big money can be made from psychological addiction

17:19 Techrights-sec; both to the interface itself and to the rage and other emotions it induces

17:19 Techrights-sec; excellent approach, much more productive and far, far greater control and

17:19 Techrights-sec; independence


6 PM, March 4

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; ota

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; draft

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; I had so much more I wanted to say

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; but this video wasn't like a talk prepared for an event

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; with all points covered

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; I don't regret 12+ yhears of this junk

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; I only regret not leaving sooner

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; as it was just a net negative since covid-19 with the

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; ludicrous cenjsorship rules

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; and many people tip-toing with conspioracy cranks

18:03 schestowitz-TR2; and "hey hi" "moderators"

18:04 Techrights-sec; ack

18:05 schestowitz-TR2; maybe 10 years from now those articles will be a look back at something that many moons ago existed

18:05 schestowitz-TR2; sort of like webrings

18:05 schestowitz-TR2; or geocities

18:05 schestowitz-TR2; newsgroups ae still around, but are incrreasingly just aniche

18:05 Techrights-sec; unlike the stuff which came later, most webrings were actually useful

18:05 Techrights-sec; on several levels

18:07 schestowitz-TR2; gemini has replicated then to some extent, but web directories like DMOZ

18:07 schestowitz-TR2; and Webrings heled isolated you from companies like Gulag

18:07 schestowitz-TR2; and "ref" sites like wikipedia

18:07 schestowitz-TR2; where there is almost a monopoly on what you can find and where you go

18:07 schestowitz-TR2; with mobile, search is usualyl the go-to thing due to usability limitations

18:07 schestowitz-TR2; and then they push voice search, which is inererently unsuitrable

18:07 schestowitz-TR2; for anything except free form search queries

18:07 Techrights-sec; most young people have never heard of newsgroups nor experienced working e-mail

18:07 Techrights-sec; clients

18:09 schestowitz-TR2; lst year kaniini told me that

18:09 schestowitz-TR2; many grads now

18:09 schestowitz-TR2; cannot use anything but fake git, like github, due to the fact their

18:09 schestowitz-TR2; email clients are not in fact email clients

18:09 schestowitz-TR2; they are html renderers and browsers

18:09 schestowitz-TR2; disguised as "gmail" and not even email

18:09 schestowitz-TR2; so git does not speak the same language as them

18:12 Techrights-sec; and most are actively farmed by services like tiktok and facebook (in its many

18:12 Techrights-sec; names) Lots of a-holes assert that they are not in facebook but then in the

18:12 Techrights-sec; same breath go on about whatsapp or other facebook property they are used by

18:12 schestowitz-TR2; maybe at some point it is worth doing something like a 'whitepaper'

18:12 schestowitz-TR2; on social control media (as a phenomenon)

18:13 schestowitz-TR2; and what it does, how it works

18:13 schestowitz-TR2; my main concern is,

18:13 schestowitz-TR2; many readers are not lazy

18:13 schestowitz-TR2; they would not go past abstractas and maybe pictures

18:13 schestowitz-TR2; which is why memes, videos etc.

18:13 schestowitz-TR2; might be better bang for the 'buck' (time)

18:13 schestowitz-TR2; techrights became very visible under Google Search -> Video

18:13 Techrights-sec; if it is thorough and not superficial

18:13 Techrights-sec; few are /able/ to read long form articles

18:15 schestowitz-TR2; i will think how to better visual it for concision

18:15 schestowitz-TR2; rianne is out at the moment, been a long time, which means she needs to go through

18:15 schestowitz-TR2; lots of different store in pursuit of the discounted things

18:15 schestowitz-TR2; and the times have changed, like cutoffs and rates

18:15 schestowitz-TR2; it will suck if we need to pay full price given the massive increases

18:15 schestowitz-TR2; though food is not a huge chunk of the budget

18:15 schestowitz-TR2; it's a bit ogf a challenge and thrill

18:21 Techrights-sec; ack

18:21 Techrights-sec; better to limit exposure

18:21 Techrights-sec; at the stores

8 PM, March 4

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; I want to write to myself here what was changed this afternoon

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; I changed 3 files

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; 3 programs

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; 2 of them were pushed to git

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; one of them you then improved

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; to avoid confusion I have not YET integrated it into my live"

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; for fear one new bugs coming from several directions at the same time

20:12 schestowitz-TR2; and then me strugling to know why

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; so one file has uncommited changed

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; another has two versions lying about, with one better but not yet tested

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; I tried to change another file to get rid of all the hashtags

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; but it introduced all sorts of bugs, so Im backtrakced for now

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; in git I have older versions of the importat files

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; so in case I decidedm to use another pod for some bot

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; TM and TR

20:13 schestowitz-TR2; then I can compared
