03:57 Techrights-sec2; yes, there's not a stable way to keep it going continuously, it should be back

03:57 Techrights-sec2; after a few seconds but that's not always reliable either. the software

03:57 Techrights-sec2; it uses is apparently not quite ready.

03:58 schestowitz-TR; it's back :)

03:58 schestowitz-TR; we had cake last night

03:58 schestowitz-TR; spent time with the swans

07:30 schestowitz-TR; [07:30] <schestowitz> (just now, my side

07:35 Techrights-sec2; I think it was

07:35 Techrights-sec2; (try again please I was just thinking about that race condition, it may mean

07:35 Techrights-sec2; rewriting part but I'll have to read up on it)

07:35 Techrights-sec2; It should work now for him, too.

07:37 schestowitz-TR; thanks, we will retry

07:37 schestowitz-TR; same outcome when I try to add again the Gemini links (cluster)

07:37 schestowitz-TR; same error message shown

07:42 Techrights-sec2; checking

07:42 Techrights-sec2; Found it. Thanks for spotting the problem. One-off work-around in place,

07:42 Techrights-sec2; it should work now properly for adding and editing. However some changes

07:42 Techrights-sec2; are needed for deleting.

07:42 Techrights-sec2; Please try now.

07:45 schestowitz-TR; trying same post

07:45 schestowitz-TR; now it works/ed

07:45 schestowitz-TR; and I see the test page, too

07:45 schestowitz-TR; should I ask that guy to try again too?

07:48 Techrights-sec2; I'll try deleting the test page now

07:50 schestowitz-TR; thanks, good time to test things while it's quiet

07:51 Techrights-sec2; Fortunately it was not the race condition I worried about, but that might have

07:51 Techrights-sec2; to be addressed anyway for prevention perhaps.

07:51 Techrights-sec2; Try one more and if it works, then have him try again too.

07:56 schestowitz-TR; I don't have any material left atm ^_^

07:56 schestowitz-TR; but I see arindam added a page moments ago

07:56 schestowitz-TR; I will pst today in TR

07:58 Techrights-sec2; Excellent!

07:58 Techrights-sec2; I'm still worried though about what happens when two people add at the same

07:58 Techrights-sec2; time since I am still a novice at SQL and may have guessed wrong about how

07:58 Techrights-sec2; to prevent that. Yes

07:58 Techrights-sec2; which script?

07:59 schestowitz-TR; you added some debug options, I think

07:59 schestowitz-TR; unknown options r and b

07:59 schestowitz-TR; 3 times over

07:59 schestowitz-TR; but it completes OK

07:59 schestowitz-TR; page shows up

07:59 schestowitz-TR; in add script


8 AM, September 19

08:03 Techrights-sec2; I see it now. The optons were actually reoved from the underlyingscript

08:03 Techrights-sec2; s but now need to be removed from the wrapper

1 PM, September 19

13:29 Techrights-sec2; checking

13:29 Techrights-sec2; title needs reworking somehow

13:29 Techrights-sec2; A line about why UEFI / Restricted boot is problematic, perhaps in conjunction with a link

13:29 schestowitz-TR; dreaft

13:29 schestowitz-TR; just modified the text as you suggested

13:32 schestowitz-TR; ---

13:32 schestowitz-TR; I find it improbable this a) is true and b) not accidental

13:32 schestowitz-TR; will need soem research

13:32 schestowitz-TR; major scandal otherwise

13:32 schestowitz-TR; also, codecs ~= DRM

13:32 schestowitz-TR; DRM is DRM

13:32 schestowitz-TR; codecs can deal with encryption )secret translation) in streams

13:32 schestowitz-TR; but that's not the same, it is the transport layer

13:32 schestowitz-TR; so I am left scratching my head over that claim

13:32 schestowitz-TR; gnome (IBM) wants uefi enables for 'secure' boot

13:33 schestowitz-TR; Red Hat pushes this into Linux

13:33 schestowitz-TR; irc got interesting todayn around 6am

13:48 schestowitz-TR; bellard did not write anything for drm ;-)

13:49 schestowitz-TR; vlc does not count, nor does qemu

13:55 schestowitz-TR; uefi is mnot one thing

13:55 schestowitz-TR; they are not all the same

13:55 schestowitz-TR; diff vers and implementations

13:57 Techrights-sec2; Yes, there are many different distos of UEFI. They seem to be a general

13:57 Techrights-sec2; category of full OS (though not a general-purpose OS) without standardization

13:57 Techrights-sec2; or uniformity.


2 PM, September 19

14:13 Techrights-sec2; Security holes and all...

14:14 schestowitz-TR; microsoft tells nsa how to breach its stuff

14:14 schestowitz-TR; before bothering to patch anything

14:14 schestowitz-TR; even when it's actiovely exploited microsoft just waits

14:14 schestowitz-TR; we know this

14:14 schestowitz-TR; boot level: BEFORE any OS starts

14:14 schestowitz-TR; so OS-agnostic

14:14 schestowitz-TR; but now HW-agnostic

14:18 psydroid2; general-purpose computing is dying, it's DRM slavery now

14:19 schestowitz-TR; maybe

14:19 schestowitz-TR; but if it's true that

14:19 schestowitz-TR; DRM is creeping that is built on top of DRM

14:19 schestowitz-TR; not just the Vista DRM

14:19 schestowitz-TR; but also 'secure' boot

14:19 schestowitz-TR; then proof would be needed

14:19 schestowitz-TR; the xplanation might be simpler

14:19 schestowitz-TR; and also, Mint developers would know what's going on

14:20 schestowitz-TR; and someone would blurt it out

14:20 Techrights-sec2; Limited to x86 ... so far

14:20 schestowitz-TR; i meant not, 'now' was a typo

14:23 schestowitz-TR; <techrights-news> "Not my king" implies that another king can or should exist. "Not accepting kings" would be a clearer statement, but social control media giants (like Twitter, owned partly by the Saudi ROYAL family) control hashes and tags, trends and visibility.

14:36 Techrights-sec2; ack

14:39 schestowitz-TR; head a biy overloaded today with things that I wanted to say but forgot to say

14:39 schestowitz-TR; but I am managing to catch up with forgotten thoughts though

14:39 schestowitz-TR; mostly mnemonic taactics, note-taking

14:39 schestowitz-TR; I thought about doing a video on FSF, GNU, and SFC, but I am not 100% sure what goes on there

14:39 schestowitz-TR; it's a bit cryptic

14:39 schestowitz-TR; some internal fights and internal comms

14:39 schestowitz-TR; trademarks, owership, copyrights

14:39 schestowitz-TR; it is important to not say something thaty later turns out to be untrue

14:39 schestowitz-TR; there is a lack of transparency

14:39 schestowitz-TR; also notice how quiet fsfe became

14:47 Techrights-sec2; ack

14:52 psydroid2; "a deeply corruption institution" -> "a deeply corrupted institution"

14:56 schestowitz-TR; ah, thanks!!

3 PM, September 19

15:02 schestowitz-TR; RANT:

15:02 schestowitz-TR; I'm truly stick and tired of straw men args in the media

15:02 schestowitz-TR; when looking for articles about liz and covid

15:02 schestowitz-TR; I found so-called 'fact checkers'

15:02 schestowitz-TR; they checked claims tht VACCINES killed Liz

15:02 schestowitz-TR; not that the virus itself weakened her

15:02 schestowitz-TR; which it did, she openly admitted it

15:02 schestowitz-TR; I use searX

15:02 schestowitz-TR; but it's not doing its own crawling

15:03 schestowitz-TR; so it inherits the prtopaganda from those that crawl, sort, deliver

15:03 schestowitz-TR; The WWW is a "shit machine"

15:03 schestowitz-TR; end RANT

15:03 schestowitz-TR; *sick and tired

15:03 schestowitz-TR; *straw man

15:03 schestowitz-TR; I dread even entering the name bill gates

15:03 schestowitz-TR; and find what BS was upvoted or promoted

15:03 schestowitz-TR; while deranking not cranks

15:03 schestowitz-TR; but factual article that billG wants to hide

15:03 schestowitz-TR; remember he pays Gulag for ads

15:03 schestowitz-TR; youtube was full of ads of his

15:03 schestowitz-TR; prior to the divorce at least

15:03 schestowitz-TR; he pays Microsoft's competitor

15:03 schestowitz-TR; that is how desperate he is to whiten his name

15:08 schestowitz-TR; regarding note-taking, I heard this thing before about playback, but I think it was from you

16:00 schestowitz-TR; you talk about pentagon taking control of computing

16:00 schestowitz-TR; and then the channel starts talking about genders and stuff

16:00 schestowitz-TR; muddying the well/water

16:04 Techrights-sec2; on purpose

16:19 schestowitz-TR; it is wordpress

16:20 schestowitz-TR; they moved to that when the old site was salvaged

16:20 schestowitz-TR; it spews out some char atg the end of the first para that TM cannot handle

16:20 schestowitz-TR; I think an invisible space

16:20 schestowitz-TR; or second paragraph

16:20 schestowitz-TR; based on the automateds links

16:21 Techrights-sec2; I'm not sure which of these errors is choking the perl module used by our

16:21 Techrights-sec2; RSS/Atom feed processing scripts but it is something. The output of WordPress

16:21 Techrights-sec2; is most unsatisfactory.

16:21 Techrights-sec2; Maybe we'll have to run it through tidy first. :/

16:21 Techrights-sec2; Hundreds of validation errors there.

16:22 schestowitz-TR; like google.com

16:22 schestowitz-TR; the master of the www

16:22 schestowitz-TR; lead by example


5 PM, September 19

17:56 Techrights-sec2; Yes, looking at the moment. Even running the document through tidy does not

17:56 Techrights-sec2; help. The source is a mess. WordPress has reached the end of its line and is

17:56 Techrights-sec2; over. It had a good start but turned to worse than shit in recent years.

17:56 Techrights-sec2; Found it. The problem is a bizarre, nested set of <center> elements.

17:56 Techrights-sec2; <center> should not be used since HTML 3.2. And it should never, ever be

17:56 Techrights-sec2; nested like WordPress is doing.

17:56 schestowitz-TR; it is an old site
