07:49 schestowitz; :-)
07:49 schestowitz; > Might have to waste some more time, and go back to an earlier version.
07:49 schestowitz; I try not to change the OS too much. Any change MIGHT introduce unwanted (to you) behaviour. My wife and I use Debian 10, which is supported for 5 years. On a second machine we use Debian 11.
07:50 schestowitz; > Think it was 18.0 Sara.
07:50 schestowitz; You can try another desktop environment of it... if the latest changes don't suit your workflow. We use KDE.

08:19 schestowitz-TR; of note:
08:19 schestowitz-TR; I have confronted my bosses for a few days
08:19 schestowitz-TR; I took many notes too
08:19 schestowitz-TR; over the next few days or weeks I might trickle some redacted bits
08:19 schestowitz-TR; onto irc
08:20 schestowitz-TR; the bottom line is,
08:20 schestowitz-TR; they realise they fucked up
08:20 schestowitz-TR; but are unwilling to admit it
08:20 schestowitz-TR; as a result, I taker the liberty to now post to socialc control media
08:20 schestowitz-TR; ect. even during my shift
08:20 schestowitz-TR; if I get challenenged over this I have lots of leverage I can bring
08:20 schestowitz-TR; against them
08:20 schestowitz-TR; such as making upp phony stories, just as they haver to me
08:20 schestowitz-TR; bottom line: I gained from this the libersity to post 24/7
08:20 schestowitz-TR; even while on shift
09:04 Techrights-sec; social control media during a shift is probably still inadvisable,
09:04 Techrights-sec; there are many other liberties which can be taken
09:04 Techrights-sec; keep in mind that social control media is inherently an unhealthy
09:04 Techrights-sec; activity and breaks are needed, even longer fasts
09:33 schestowitz-TR; I wish I could very honestly say that nobody uses and follows those sites
09:34 schestowitz-TR; I stopped years ago (write-only)
09:34 schestowitz-TR; you too follow some acocunts there
09:34 schestowitz-TR; and if it could be compltely discarded, bearing in mind that tuxmachines is
09:34 schestowitz-TR; there and not techrigths, I would not fight so hard for joindiaspora

13:53 schestowitz-TR; some moments ago I tried to delete the lockfile from gemini
13:53 schestowitz-TR; it said it had already been deleted
13:53 schestowitz-TR; so I assume timeouts are the reason it has not udpdated since yesterday
13:53 schestowitz-TR; not that it matters, but I wanted to use kristall in the videos

13:56 *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)
14:04 Techrights-sec; I was just going to ask about that script. I had been checking to see that
14:04 Techrights-sec; no lockfiles got left around nor defunct scripts. You are probably right about
14:04 Techrights-sec; the timeouts. However, without them the script eventually hangs due to
14:04 Techrights-sec; poor http connectivity to TR
14:09 schestowitz-TR; I think that at this stage even if there are update delays it's not a very critic
14:09 schestowitz-TR; al issue; I could alter tc config, but that might in turn slow down or increase
14:09 schestowitz-TR; latency of some other thing
14:09 schestowitz-TR; should I try now\?
14:09 schestowitz-TR; BTW, I have added a draft just now (video uploading)
14:12 Techrights-sec; given the situation with the http connectivity to and on TR the only way to be
14:12 Techrights-sec; sure is to run the scrip manually and watch it succeed or fail

14:12 Techrights-sec; Could not find feed at URL: "http://techrights.org/feed/"
14:12 Techrights-sec; A completely different approach is needed since HTTP cannot be counted on to
14:12 Techrights-sec; serve uncorrupted files even on the occasions the connection goes through
14:12 Techrights-sec; This happens from everywhere as far as I know but worse from that particular LAN

14:31 schestowitz-TR; I was thinking of gates and others
14:31 schestowitz-TR; he was not the only one
14:31 schestowitz-TR; I've just added another draft, with sharecropping added to it
14:36 Techrights-sec; ack
14:36 Techrights-sec; sharecropping was in the US; independent farmers were entrapped into losing
14:36 Techrights-sec; their economic and social independence
14:37 schestowitz-TR; uk : "modern-age slavery"
14:37 schestowitz-TR; serfdom was still common in the 1960s
14:39 schestowitz-TR; juist watched the video
14:39 schestowitz-TR; brought back to mind what fernando cassia wrote in ther inquirer before it perish
14:39 schestowitz-TR; ed
14:39 schestowitz-TR; the only time I catch look at bill gates and smile
