02:58 schestowitz-TR; touching gmnisrv logs on TM

02:58 schestowitz-TR; it seems like some people regularly get news off of it

02:58 schestowitz-TR; atm, there is no archiving-related index

02:58 schestowitz-TR; lik weekly/daily archive

02:58 schestowitz-TR; but that can always be easily derived from the db

02:58 schestowitz-TR; same for www

8 AM, December 22

08:07 techrightssec2; ack

08:08 schestowitz-TR; now up to 12 users in mumble

08:08 schestowitz-TR; sometimes photos are uploaded when we are afk, only murmur running

08:08 schestowitz-TR; and so it's not possible to see what was there

08:08 schestowitz-TR; but the simple solution, I guess, it to stay online

08:08 techrightssec2; ack

08:08 techrightssec2; nice

08:08 techrightssec2; how many can it handle concurrently as far as the sound goes?

08:11 techrightssec2; ok

08:11 schestowitz-TR; the 12 are not concurrent

08:11 schestowitz-TR; I am counting how many people have a mumble client (usually mumla)

08:11 techrightssec2; ok

08:11 schestowitz-TR; so have the capacity to connect

08:15 schestowitz-TR; i was thinking of privacy aspects

08:15 schestowitz-TR; it goes like this

08:15 schestowitz-TR; for local calls, akin to intercom

08:15 schestowitz-TR; exploit might be

08:15 schestowitz-TR; 1) weak e2e encryption

08:15 schestowitz-TR; 2) cracked device, e.g. laptop

08:15 schestowitz-TR; 3) router takeover by ISP, plus (1)

08:15 schestowitz-TR; for inward/outward calls it's simpler, as many use android

08:15 schestowitz-TR; then

08:15 schestowitz-TR; a) android crack (turn micro listening model)

08:15 schestowitz-TR; b) see (1) above

08:15 schestowitz-TR; and several combinations of 1+2+3, a suibset of this scenario

08:15 schestowitz-TR; it might be interesting to see a videos made on it

08:15 schestowitz-TR; if none exist, I might make one some day

08:15 schestowitz-TR; conversations that are truly private should become the norm

08:15 schestowitz-TR; never mind the terror scare and "think of the chlldren" red herring

09:31 techrightssec2; 3) not just the ISP, but third parties, since the ISP is most unlikely to

09:31 techrightssec2; ever update the firmware let alone do it ofen enough to keep it up to date

09:51 schestowitz-TR; based on the links, disney is to entertainment what microsofters are to tech

09:51 schestowitz-TR; they remove founders from their projects

09:51 schestowitz-TR; and trample all over

09:51 schestowitz-TR; maybe george lucas will be in a mental asylum some time soon

09:51 schestowitz-TR; or sent to "therapists"

15:12 schestowitz-TR; so some people who read the series are reporting that in their workplace/s they too

15:12 schestowitz-TR; experience(d) similar things

15:12 schestowitz-TR; I guess after a decade or more you learn to recognise and explain some certain pattern

15:12 schestowitz-TR; with focus on foss and "it"

15:12 schestowitz-TR; e.g. hr as foes of the staff

15:12 schestowitz-TR; or, if outsourced, the entire company (client)

15:13 techrightssec2; I would guess that the behaviors and tactics described are commonplace

15:13 techrightssec2; HR is there to protect the company from the workers, too bad

15:14 schestowitz-TR; hr is also there to protect hr

15:14 schestowitz-TR; which, if outsourced, means that hr can issue self-harming advice

15:33 schestowitz-TR; Yuppie EV fantasies; the problems is overpopulation and excess of automobiles. EVs don't generate their OWN power. Other issues, noted by GNU/Linux dev today https://bkhome.org/news/202212/electric-vehicle-reality-check.html

↺ https://bkhome.org/news/202212/electric-vehicle-reality-check.html

15:33 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-bkhome.org | Electric vehicle reality check

15:40 techrightssec2; Electrci cars still contribute to traffic congestion and arent' a replacement

15:40 techrightssec2; for excellent or even adequate mass transit.

15:42 schestowitz-TR; as soon as the office states tycoon could compel politicians to ignore covid-19 and other issues

15:42 schestowitz-TR; they forced millions to commute to the office again, even for jobs that do not strictly require such

15:42 schestowitz-TR; travel

15:42 schestowitz-TR; maybe we can charge EVs off the body heat of those tycoon

15:42 schestowitz-TR; *tycoons

15:42 schestowitz-TR; *office estate tycoons

15:42 schestowitz-TR; in the uk a lot is foreign-owned as "investment"

15:42 schestowitz-TR; so they don't even care about the wellbeing and health of the localsd

16:01 techrightssec2; None of the three have been covered yet, though the topic itself has been

16:01 techrightssec2; covered before on occasion.

16:02 schestowitz-TR; I still remember these reports

16:02 schestowitz-TR; some might be in TR already"

16:02 schestowitz-TR; "Intercept" is Persian propaganda

16:02 schestowitz-TR; usually picking on "classic" 'enemies' inc. Israel and KSA

16:02 schestowitz-TR; there are reasons why greenwald left in protest

16:02 schestowitz-TR; you are free to cover what you want under the Omidyar PAC stands in your way

16:04 techrightssec2; No, I tend to skip "Intercept" because it is not a good, consistent source

16:04 techrightssec2; plus they went out of their way to burn multiple sources.

16:04 techrightssec2;

16:09 schestowitz-TR; that too

16:09 schestowitz-TR; but the corruption runs deeper

16:09 schestowitz-TR; /s/under/until/

16:09 schestowitz-TR; remember what they did with

16:09 schestowitz-TR; 1) snowden files

16:09 schestowitz-TR; 2) the people with access to (1)

16:09 schestowitz-TR; 3) the people did openly complain about what Omidyar did both to (2) and to (1)

16:09 schestowitz-TR; Omidyar PAC did some malicious attack pieces on Wikileaks

16:09 schestowitz-TR; a lot of Omidyar-funded "journalists" (except maybe Greenwald at the time)

16:09 schestowitz-TR; participated in this agenda

16:09 schestowitz-TR; it destroyed fredom of the press foundation

16:09 schestowitz-TR; co-founder by Barlow and his mate Assnage, IIRC

16:09 schestowitz-TR; EFF used to support Wikileaks

16:09 schestowitz-TR; nowadays EFF works for brain-damaged maniacs with a twitter account

16:10 schestowitz-TR; sometimes I joke to myself that musk is killing twitter to just take that hive off the backs of the

16:10 schestowitz-TR; villains du jour

16:10 schestowitz-TR; (joke, I think it's just a childish 51-year-old playing with money of his dad (slavery), US

16:10 schestowitz-TR; taxpayers, and Saudi head-chopping terrorists who market themselves as progressives)

16:10 schestowitz-TR; techwashing, sportwashing etc.

16:10 schestowitz-TR; (lukashenko does the same... a pseudo-peasant sold as "batka")

16:10 techrightssec2;

16:10 techrightssec2; Yes, the corruption is thorough there.

16:10 techrightssec2; They also went out of their way to acquire and then bury the Snowden files

16:10 techrightssec2; Those with access seem to have shut down and disappeared.

16:10 techrightssec2; Or twitter-damaged maniacs with an EFF account, more like it

16:11 schestowitz-TR; the eff now does some promotion of mastodon

16:11 schestowitz-TR; fsf? lol, fsf says nothing

16:11 schestowitz-TR; but has a new job opening

16:11 schestowitz-TR; john s. has left

16:11 schestowitz-TR; but eff just wants its hive to dominate and police the "fediverse"

16:11 schestowitz-TR; no "terror" stuff like e2ee

16:11 schestowitz-TR; just some crappy "privacy-aware" apple

16:52 techrightssec2; ack
