08:50 schestowitz-TR; 1. I was expecting bugs somewhere in the irc stuff, but have found no bugs so far, tested for 20 mins all in all
08:50 schestowitz-TR; since 2:30am
08:50 schestowitz-TR; 2/ nhs and epo complaints are good news
08:52 Techrights-sec; 2: yes very good progress
08:52 Techrights-sec; 1: the translation is still brittle, it'd be nice to do more upstream and then have scripts convert to HTML and
08:52 Techrights-sec; Gemini at the same time rather than
08:52 Techrights-sec; converting logs to html and from there to Gemini
08:52 schestowitz-TR; I reckon python3 might not be compatible, but we can always fall back onto 2.x
08:53 Techrights-sec; python2 is deprecated since long ago
08:53 schestowitz-TR; ack
08:53 schestowitz-TR; I will do some more testing later, I have a list
08:57 Techrights-sec; ack
08:57 schestowitz-TR; I got the police files on Graveley
08:57 schestowitz-TR; and some dirt on Friedman
08:57 Techrights-sec; Interesting, if they are authentic
09:46 Techrights-sec; +1
09:46 Techrights-sec; page 2 of the warrant looks empty
09:46 Techrights-sec; then again it is marked "unofficial"
09:47 schestowitz-TR; wait, there is MOIRE

11:16 schestowitz; partly to self: tomorrow's test 3:30am in irc, see notes below (check in morning, follow links to gmi in blog post); should we also include gmi link to bulletin? gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2021/12/08/irc-log-071221/index.gmi would inherit the link if it is included in the www post.
11:19 schestowitz; leah is looking into gemini again, I think it would help if posts like gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2021/12/08/irc-log-071221/index.gmi included a gemini link for the bulletin too, as at the very least it brings us closer to the point of saying, we have web/gemini parity
11:19 leah; i mean
11:19 leah; yeah

11:52 schestowitz-TR; I have today (8:44) push showing a bug fixed, so am copying to main file, we need to watch closely the next few
11:52 schestowitz-TR; days in case
11:52 schestowitz-TR; something breaks quietly
11:52 schestowitz-TR; better to catch bugs early than late
11:52 schestowitz-TR; I will now push some changes for the IRC bot
12:01 *DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving)
12:23 schestowitz; "Techrights deals with a variety of issues that affect our everyday computing. It works by addressing particular subjects that need to be better understood and thus resolved."

12:23 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-muckrack.com | Techrights.org: Contact Information, Journalists, and Overview | Muck Rack
12:23 schestowitz; "Trade/B2B, Consumer"???
12:44 schestowitz-TR; pushed to IRC the irc bot changes, which I dry-tested link by link to lower chances of bugs
12:45 Techrights-sec; back
12:45 Techrights-sec; yes, I've been checking the published Gemtext and looking for oddnesses and miakes
12:45 Techrights-sec; ack
12:55 schestowitz-TR; I was pleasantly surprised by how fewe bugs and defects in 'deploymemnt' we had
12:55 schestowitz-TR; because I had anticipated a lot more trouble, though it all worked rather smoothly
12:55 schestowitz-TR; and now it's all automated for yearsb to come
12:57 Techrights-sec; hopefully. too much of it relies on scraping and scraping is brittle. it
12:57 Techrights-sec; does not adapt to changes in the layout of the source, if they are outside
12:57 Techrights-sec; certain parameters
12:57 schestowitz-TR; if or when changes are introduced, the code can be tweaked a bit
12:57 schestowitz-TR; btw, meduza is still broken, this was discsused in main irc channel yesterday
12:59 schestowitz-TR; i keep getting tons of new info from github; sources and moles and friends of friends can do more damage than "CIEgate"
12:59 schestowitz-TR; *ICEgate
13:01 Techrights-sec; yes, it's too bad they have not fixed their feeds
13:01 Techrights-sec; M$ did a lot of damage to FOSS with the GitHub acquisition, that was one of
13:01 Techrights-sec; their goals. Those close enough to the epicenter can get shocked out of the
13:01 Techrights-sec; foolish projection that M$ had improved or changed in any way for the better.
13:02 Techrights-sec; nextcloud et al filed a complaint
13:02 Techrights-sec; backed even by some microsoft apologists
13:04 Techrights-sec; it'll be interesting if NextCloud gets enough traction to make a case. Many
13:04 Techrights-sec; judges seem to worship bill and or M$ and so might squash it before it starts.
13:04 Techrights-sec; See how the judges were angry at Schrems for daring to question Facebook.
13:04 Techrights-sec; M$ is far worse and far more established.
13:05 schestowitz-TR; same for epo which the eu is protecting
13:05 schestowitz-TR; and the dutch and german states too!!!
13:08 Techrights-sec; germany seems to be pushing epo the most, and that looks like mostly from
13:08 Techrights-sec; conflicrs of interest. how much money does the german government skim
13:08 Techrights-sec; off of the epo?
13:08 schestowitz-TR; law firms, court fees, 7000 high earners spending on homes etc.
13:11 Techrights-sec; I wonder if there is more direct profit from them.
13:11 schestowitz-TR; nations, through NPO 'cooperation', receive bribes
13:13 schestowitz-TR; call it a cartel if you must, or a CROSS-border class warfare thing, with liars/lawyers an d corporastions
13:13 Techrights-sec; corruption seems high in many EU countries, despite the ability to fill
13:13 Techrights-sec; out forms saying the opposite
13:13 schestowitz-TR; covering epo means we show the crimes spilling over to other institutions, e.g. wipo, euipo, and NPOs
13:14 Techrights-sec; yep, and the general graft that people witness or participate in but deny
13:15 schestowitz-TR; btw, re TM
13:15 schestowitz-TR; I was going to tell you yesterday
13:15 schestowitz-TR; the beat we found most effective is
13:15 schestowitz-TR; rianne takes the lead
13:15 schestowitz-TR; with key stories
13:15 schestowitz-TR; marius does very fast reporting and adds his stories asap
13:15 schestowitz-TR; I am just the pickup guy, assembling the leftovers and picking up missing bits here and there
13:16 schestowitz-TR; of course that generally changes and changed over time
13:16 schestowitz-TR; as we findn btter ways to run it thinly
13:16 schestowitz-TR; and if rianne works i take over TM, and vice versa, same for sleep cycles, so we're rarely behind. marius also covers for us when on holiday
13:17 schestowitz-TR; TMS is just as important as TR, but DIFFERENT
13:27 Techrights-sec; ack
13:27 Techrights-sec; Excellent coverage

15:17 *tech_exorcist (~tech_exorcist@kmujm4s8xqrtu.irc) has joined #boycottnovell
15:19 schestowitz-TR; I think we can do to microsoft sand github what we do to EPO
15:21 Techrights-sec; GitHub is damaged beyond redemption and would be better shut down. It was
15:21 Techrights-sec; always proprietary anyway. There are many other better options. The two
15:21 Techrights-sec; things it had going were heavy marketing and integration with a bug tracker.
15:21 Techrights-sec; It's more social control media then development software at this point.
15:21 Techrights-sec; Again, it comes down to a question of control.
15:21 Techrights-sec; ack
15:21 schestowitz-TR; it's like a big coke vending machine
15:21 schestowitz-TR; we just need to knock it back and forth a few times
15:21 schestowitz-TR; then it will fall over
15:23 schestowitz-TR; transcoding 30-min video, calling for more sources
15:32 Techrights-sec; there might be quite a few willing to speak, m$ burned a lot of people in
15:32 Techrights-sec; the buyout
15:32 Techrights-sec; not just through the result but also the process
15:34 schestowitz-TR; mumble can come in handy
15:35 schestowitz-TR; but i suppose when used as "app" on some OSes its privacy is at risk
15:36 Techrights-sec; that too
15:36 Techrights-sec; It gives M$ a complete overview of all project activity for projects still in
15:36 Techrights-sec; GitHUb
15:36 schestowitz-TR; 'BI'
15:37 Techrights-sec; Regular intel which they presumably use themselves to further their agenda
15:37 Techrights-sec; and which they also sell to various governments to know where and how to
15:37 Techrights-sec; sabotage FOSS with the least effort and resources.
15:38 schestowitz-TR; it is a lot more than just intel (visibility) as they can censor, ban, manipulate etc./
15:38 schestowitz-TR; --- a point we MUST regularly raise to remind people
15:38 schestowitz-TR; it happened before -- it's a power they abuse
15:40 Techrights-sec; yep, good point
15:40 Techrights-sec; A big problem there is that most people don't accept or observe facts, and
15:40 Techrights-sec; go with what they /wish/ was true instead.
15:40 schestowitz-TR; ok, so we persist and persist
15:40 schestowitz-TR; I'm still young enought to fight on and my temper is OK, so I don't mind a few concessions here and there
15:41 schestowitz-TR; zoobab seems to be taking it a lot harder and loses morale quickly
