08:05 techrights[sec]; drives or diskettes?

08:07 schestowitz-pi2; yes, not my fault
08:13 techrights[sec]; It would be weird to find a box of drives. Unless one is interested in the
08:13 techrights[sec]; hardware itself it would be of no use. What would be more interesting
08:13 techrights[sec]; would be a set of diskettes. From reading, it seems like that's what was
08:13 techrights[sec]; found in actuality.

10:12 schestowitz-pi2; i may have just been vindicated
10:12 schestowitz-pi2; and maybe i'll even get to see a warrant of arrest for the founder
10:12 schestowitz-pi2; one hour on phone with mangement
10:12 schestowitz-pi2; and this time recorded as well
10:12 schestowitz-pi2; using the new landlines, which are good for this kind of thing
10:22 techrights[sec]; :)
10:22 techrights[sec]; Recordings can help a lot to documen
10:23 techrights[sec]; Recordings can help a lot to document lies.
10:23 schestowitz-pi2; in case i publish some later, it's still a chore
10:23 schestowitz-pi2; because i need to listen to the whole thing
10:23 schestowitz-pi2; and make markings of which parts contain sensitive stuff like my
10:23 schestowitz-pi2; national insurance number
10:23 schestowitz-pi2; so that I don't publish it
10:27 schestowitz-pi2; <schestowitz[TR]> it's starting to look like my old boss might belong in prison
10:27 schestowitz-pi2; <schestowitz[TR]> the pension provider said they never paid
10:27 schestowitz-pi2; <schestowitz[TR]> only deducted
10:27 schestowitz-pi2; <schestowitz[TR]> probably for all of us
10:27 schestowitz-pi2; <schestowitz[TR]> some "Open Source" company, eh?

10:51 techrights[sec]; Interesting development.
10:51 techrights[sec]; A most unfortunate one, at that.

11:07 schestowitz-pi2; Kelly was a spouse of the 'founder' and a Director at the time, so she knew what was going on and she, unlike her former husband, is based in the UK and isn't a fugitive in the US.
11:07 schestowitz-pi2; The CEO who left very recently knew nothing about this (or wasn't complicit) because he was not in the company at the time, but maybe he could see paperwork or was given verbal memos about this taboo subject. Maybe the inquest has, in its own right, motivated the departure (fear of being held accountable when real address was pursued).
11:16 schestowitz-pi2; <techrights-news> Today ONS released new numbers. Total deaths England and Wales (2023) about 1,000 HIGHER than the same week a year earlier. Doesn't seem like we're improving. It's getting WORSE. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/datasets/weeklyprovisionalfiguresondeathsregisteredinenglandandwales/2023

11:41 techrights[sec]; Are there articles about it yet?
11:41 techrights[sec]; I have not seen much coverage of DDoS any more anywhere at all.
11:41 techrights[sec]; They go on but the "news" has chosen not to cover problems which implicate
11:41 techrights[sec]; m$ and its crappy products.
11:42 schestowitz-pi2; maybe lack of incentive to advertise somewhat potent capability to disrupt
11:42 schestowitz-pi2; whole networks, as that might embolden the attackers?
11:42 schestowitz-pi2; hey. why reports the news? it _might_ cause something!
11:47 techrights[sec]; Several (many) of the major sites are on the take anyway. BBC, Guardian, NPR,
11:47 techrights[sec]; PBS, all are paid hush money by Bill through his slush fund.

13:02 techrights[sec]; It has been a while since I saw the name Recode. It was really good, but a long
13:02 techrights[sec]; time ago since it was active or even visible.
13:03 schestowitz-pi2; i could name sites I figure out will be gone for good in the next 5 years
13:03 schestowitz-pi2; depends on the context
13:25 techrights[sec]; Anyway, the SCO case is 20 years old today. See LWN
13:26 schestowitz-pi2; i put that and more in the TM's front page today
13:26 schestowitz-pi2; and in TR
13:26 schestowitz-pi2; because someone shared a subs. link which bypasses the paywall
13:35 techrights[sec]; It must have been buried in one of the link aggregation posts :/
13:35 techrights[sec]; """
13:35 techrights[sec]; What nobody has explained about the whole fiasco is (1) what kept the suit from being dismissed outright once i
13:35 techrights[sec]; t became clear SCO had no standing to sue, (2) why SCO's lawyers were not declared in contempt of court for the
13:35 techrights[sec]; ir numerous open deception, *and* (3) why no SCO officers were indicted for perjury.
