04:29 schestowitz-pi2; hiw blog STILL lacks an rss feed
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; I could re-use tools I wropte for tracking pages without these
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; coded them 20 years ago
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; but really, wtf?
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; page source, nothing about atom, xml, rss
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; though i think that can be added easily
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; based on a search on beehiv tools
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; he promotes twitter, fb, and msft linkedin
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; to follow him
04:29 schestowitz-pi2; no lessons learned from his pluspora and google+ experience
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; was planning to publish the "religion" piece this morning
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; but RMS asked to amend a few minor things
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; so delayed a bit
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; other people also mocked reddit for being a pile of dung
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; it's redacted in irc logs for monday
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; i will do site backups later today
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; i backed up bubi last night
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; i lack off-home (site) backups of my personal files for fires etc.
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; thought about underground repo for a spare drive before
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; but it's tricky
06:48 schestowitz-pi2; i gave one drive to a friend, but he misplaced it, cannot find it
06:53 techrights[sec]; week them
06:53 techrights[sec]; Encrypted, I hope?
06:54 schestowitz-pi2; it was over a decade ago and contained stuff like photos, music
06:54 schestowitz-pi2; the 'high-volume' stuff
07:11 schestowitz-pi2; <techrights-news> Trying to make the studies into health harms of social control media seem "controversial", divisive https://gizmodo.com/teen-social-media-studies-white-kids-racial-bias-1850170331
07:11 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-gizmodo.com | Teen Social Media Use Studies Focus Too Much on White Kids
07:12 schestowitz-pi2; _might_ be ad hom(against the research)
07:12 schestowitz-pi2; and shifting the subject of debate
07:12 schestowitz-pi2; like IBM help NYPD spy on people
07:12 schestowitz-pi2; it then becomes debate about "racial ethics" in HEY HI
07:12 schestowitz-pi2; after the spun
07:12 schestowitz-pi2; *spin
07:12 schestowitz-pi2; race, not class
07:17 techrights[sec]; yes if they have people fighting unnecessarily over race, something which
07:17 techrights[sec]; cannot be changed, then they will ignore the class war going on even though
07:17 techrights[sec]; that is something which /can/ be changed.
07:20 schestowitz-pi2; failing that, the social control media "happy stories" fantory can issue something about
07:20 schestowitz-pi2; the "bad" studies not including enough "nonbanaries" (under 1% of the pop) and start
07:20 schestowitz-pi2; a fight over complete lalaland
07:20 schestowitz-pi2; but this is the first time I see such a slant (gizmodo), so it's starting to smell like diversion
07:20 schestowitz-pi2; subversive social control media does not target any particular race
07:20 techrights[sec]; It does seem like a diversion at times. Some of it also seems like a campaign
07:20 techrights[sec]; to mitigate damage to social control media
07:21 schestowitz-pi2; probablky premature to do a video about it, unless it becomes a pattern later today in "media"
07:21 schestowitz-pi2; gizmodo is becoming more like cnet, esp. in weekends
07:21 schestowitz-pi2; lots of showbiz "fillter"
07:29 schestowitz-pi2; <techrights-news> CNN is promoting Chinese TikTok; what sense does this make? https://kentwired.com/93684/world-nation/stopwillow-is-taking-tiktok-by-storm-can-it-actually-work/

07:29 schestowitz-pi2; FOMO

08:11 schestowitz-pi2; with fair use i can twist this cartoon
08:11 schestowitz-pi2; e.g. with this OS we put back doors in the world
08:11 schestowitz-pi2; with Facebook we build social graphics

11:47 schestowitz-pi2; maybe saved 200+ yesterday!
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; BillBC would do anything to cover up for its masters
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; that site sickens me
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; and i feel dirty even opening a url of it
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; same for 'guardian'
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; i cannot 'unsee' what they did and do
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; that still leaves plenty of sites on www that are reasonably ok, even if not perfect
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; i am drowning in abundance of sites these days
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; and it's very helpful
11:58 schestowitz-pi2; still adjusting the workflow a bit

13:31 schestowitz-pi2; is onlyfans doing shill pieces and 'happy stories' like FB and tiktok
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; those stories strike me as smell test-induccing
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; the same with people who boast in youtube
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; on their best month
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; and the media pays attention selectively
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; will they make the same 5 months, 5 years later
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; did they make the same 5 months and 5 years earlier?
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; what they present may be facts, but taken out of context
13:31 schestowitz-pi2; to lure people in
13:32 schestowitz-pi2; $FOMO$
13:32 schestowitz-pi2; i saw similar stuff in webforums in the early days of adsense
13:32 schestowitz-pi2; "influencer" rianne was following in youtube were selectively reporting
13:32 schestowitz-pi2; to "look big" and "attract advertisers" because "I'm huge"
