04:20 techrights-sec[2]; Sometime, can you add a domain name for tr-new (204.197.160.3) ?
04:20 techrights-sec[2]; I figure it is time to start looking at adding the prerequisite services
04:20 techrights-sec[2]; to it HTTP+TLS, Gemini, etc
04:21 schestowitz-TR2; at the moment "ipfs" domain is linked to that, but can add more
04:42 techrights-sec[2]; Any placeholder name will do
04:54 schestowitz-TR2; there is now "news", but wait for dns to propagate a little
05:16 techrights-sec[2]; thanks
05:16 techrights-sec[2]; Placeholder in place
05:47 schestowitz-TR2; nice, that was fast
05:47 techrights-sec[2]; np
05:47 techrights-sec[2]; now the 'rest' can be added more leisurely between now and Feb.
05:49 schestowitz-TR2; did not sleep too well, oversplent too, thinking how to best approach the epo and upc thing
05:49 schestowitz-TR2; I'm still not sure, but now it's monday so there should be many comments
05:49 schestowitz-TR2; I will try to place all emphasis on the comments, without giving platform to the lies
05:49 schestowitz-TR2; later on ota, maybe soon

06:01 schestowitz-TR2; Graveley uses the same strategy
06:01 schestowitz-TR2; when you're as guilty as hell all you can try is help people "forget"
06:01 schestowitz-TR2; Nat Friedman knows we know what he did last summer
06:02 techrights-sec[2]; The MIT posts sure look like paid shill pieces
06:02 techrights-sec[2]; The corruption has probably gotten worse since the Epstein
06:02 schestowitz-TR2; I am sure it's paid for
06:02 techrights-sec[2]; The corruption has probably gotten worse since the Epstein and Ito scandals
06:02 techrights-sec[2]; Yes it is quite clearly paid for but the hard part is digging up or acquiring
06:02 techrights-sec[2]; proper evidence of that.
06:04 schestowitz-TR2; RMS gives a talk tomorrow, but I don't know the URL if any
06:04 schestowitz-TR2; I posted their intro/promotional video of it

06:06 schestowitz-TR2; it won't last so long
06:06 schestowitz-TR2; it's failing to guard itself
06:06 schestowitz-TR2; i think it turned 20
06:06 schestowitz-TR2; either way, it was not good 10 years agoi
06:06 schestowitz-TR2; but got worse, not better
06:06 schestowitz-TR2; it's optimised for politics and PR
06:06 schestowitz-TR2; not accuracy
06:07 techrights-sec[2]; It's more than 20 years old, there was some turnover about 20 years go though
06:07 techrights-sec[2]; and major changes. That might have been when they turned to corporate money
06:07 techrights-sec[2]; and abandoned proper research apparently in favor of product development.

08:05 schestowitz-TR2; we should contact breyer from german PP
08:05 schestowitz-TR2; he can raise the subject again
08:05 schestowitz-TR2; he already confronts breton over UPC
08:05 schestowitz-TR2; do you have contacts with him? I just know his blog (rss)
08:08 *psydroid2 has quit (Quit: Leaving)
08:08 *psydroid2 (~psydroid@h635kpe3hju7k.irc) has joined #boycottnovell
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; I was just thinking about Breyer but have no address for him or other means
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; to contact him, and am furthermore outside of his geographic area. The reason
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; though that I was thinking was that some countries have very, very strictly
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; enforced laws prohibiting registers of ethnicity, with the goal to prevent
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; another round of the genocide that went on in WWII. However, Facebook has
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; thousands of datapoints with *specificially* identify religion, ethnicity,
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; political leanings and other explicitly prohibited factors. Furthermore,
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; they have the ability to further aggregate and synthesize such information.
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; So along those lines maybe Schrems would know who to contact.
08:13 schestowitz-TR2; FB can be paid to change people's leanings (CA scandal)
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; The EFF,
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; if it weren't so busy rolling over, would also be one to contat. Yes, that
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; is why FB is tolerated, I would guess.
08:13 techrights-sec[2]; https://www.patrick-breyer.de/zur-person/
08:13 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.patrick-breyer.de | Zur Person / Kontakt Patrick Breyer
08:14 schestowitz-TR2; it's safe to assume he read TR
08:14 schestowitz-TR2; I will contact him some time later
08:14 schestowitz-TR2; he also opposes swpats

08:44 techrights-sec[2]; So there may be laws on the books in several countries prohibiting what FB does
08:44 techrights-sec[2]; if they can be enforced, but FB and M$ seem excempt from any and all laws,
08:44 techrights-sec[2]; regulations, and guidelines.

09:47 schestowitz-TR2; (you should contact your mep, I will contact breye as a german)
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; yes
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; The first paragraph should (yet again) mention that the UPC is invalid/illegal/ddefunct
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; It's implied in the one sentence but could be stated clearly just to be sure.
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; The European Patent Contention did improve things, and it should be stated
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; (yet again) for emphasis what it prohibits (hint sw patents). Yes, that can
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; risk being repetitive but the aspects can vary each time and it is *very*
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; important that the posts kind of be able to stand on their own.
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; The paragraph "All three havent been active..." could be merged with the one
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; preceding it.
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; "EPO" has a link but the acronym should be expanded in the text itself once.
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; Is the UPC in crisis or causing a constitutional crisis. The former is not
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; important, the latter is very bad.
09:50 techrights-sec[2]; Some context on who Grabinksi is and how he relates to the topic in the post.

12:38 schestowitz-TR2; schrems is another issue altogether, the outsoucing of epo to microsoft
12:39 techrights-sec[2]; checking

12:50 schestowitz-TR2; I wrote it in a rush, it's not as important as what follows, if anything...
12:50 schestowitz-TR2; we need to remind more people to contact MEPs
12:50 schestowitz-TR2; I might prepare a template later, in order for others to raise a stink
12:50 schestowitz-TR2; right now I want to get on top of links, as I'm back to work tonight
12:50 schestowitz-TR2; Free software and the media are in a crazy state, and I think it's TR's cup of tea
12:51 techrights-sec[2]; ack
12:51 techrights-sec[2]; It was worded a little rushed but perhaps that is ok
12:51 techrights-sec[2]; Among other things the salutation and honorifics were missing, but more context
12:51 techrights-sec[2]; about the 1000's of hours of writing might have helped.
12:51 techrights-sec[2]; Good luck, I hope the message gets through and that there is a useful response
12:55 schestowitz-TR2; I'm sure he read TR before and knows what I wrote
12:55 schestowitz-TR2; as for the UK, it's not relevant to the UPC
12:55 schestowitz-TR2; I met some politicians here who stumbled upon TR
12:55 schestowitz-TR2; one was deupty PM, IIRC
12:56 schestowitz-TR2; so you generally see that, despite us being so small, the hard work has impact
12:56 schestowitz-TR2; I need to post the copyright troll's letters around xmas
12:56 schestowitz-TR2; and use other means of deterreance against MSFT, Friedman, and Graveley
12:56 schestowitz-TR2; don't expect shitholes like 'hacker' 'noise' and reddit to help this gain visibility
12:56 schestowitz-TR2; they already have us labeled as "enemies" of... their paymasters, I suppose
12:56 schestowitz-TR2; but beter labeled than DEPLATFORMED
12:56 techrights-sec[2]; ack
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; side point
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; 1) john campbell's videos are becoming ridiculous because of the 'paranoia' of gulag censoring the channel
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; 2) I don't need to waste 5 mins of each video going through guidelines or removing words or flattering gulag's
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; glorious guidelines
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; 3) today when doing exercise with indivious we noticed the track kept getting muted when there was music
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; 4) exercise channels with no voice are useless
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; 5) gulag used to "label" copyright stuff (based on signatures of sound being matched)
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; I think they start to "act"
12:59 schestowitz-TR2; and they ruined this exercise video with 38+ million views
13:00 schestowitz-TR2; your [topic] suggestion re gulag and meial was good, but I don't yet know the topic well enough to say
13:00 schestowitz-TR2; something insightful

13:50 schestowitz-TR2; and then someone says, but this is 4th time in 6 months
13:50 schestowitz-TR2; I've just tested large and smalled webm files with 6 or 7 clients, inc. amfora
13:50 schestowitz-TR2; the ones that don't cope are beta versions
13:50 schestowitz-TR2; the sole advantage (atm) of the second gemini server is the DC-grade connection
13:50 schestowitz-TR2; passing files from ole tr to new-tr is like 1gb/sec

13:50 techrights-sec[2]; I doubt solderpunk will fix the specification to repair the bug when handling
13:50 techrights-sec[2]; large files.
13:53 schestowitz-TR2; even if only TEMPORARILY done, we would be the first capsule to offer a large, extensive set of large

13:53 schestowitz-TR2; "media" or similar

13:53 schestowitz-TR2; certainly the one drew default made
13:53 schestowitz-TR2; so we can access news.tuxmachines.org and gemini.tuxmachines.org
13:53 schestowitz-TR2; i could copy across the webm files, then run a bash script to make an index

14:13 schestowitz-TR2; are you ok if I go for it?
14:13 schestowitz-TR2; same url struct
14:13 schestowitz-TR2; i.e.
14:13 schestowitz-TR2; gemini-base-domain/videos/[video path]
14:13 schestowitz-TR2; I mean, not going live
14:13 schestowitz-TR2; rather, using (like with ipfs) the machine for backup
14:13 schestowitz-TR2; ok, best that way, yes
14:13 schestowitz-TR2; I thought linkage of files rather of duplication would be most suitable
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; ok with what? I'm out if the tr-new is put into production prior to janaryD
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; in any form
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; Best to wait, I would think. There are more elegant options.
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; Thinking about the work flow for the posting, I'm thinking that only the date
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; field (in the form of an integer repesenting the epoch) is the way to go and
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; that if the date is in the future, that particular post remains unpublished
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; but then an 'at' job gets launched either manually or automatically to run
14:14 techrights-sec[2]; at the designated time.
14:16 schestowitz-TR2; version control on a live server (like wordpress and drupal with extensions) is a waste of DB space, imho
14:16 schestowitz-TR2; I reckon more than half of the wordpress DB is prior revisions of the posts
14:16 schestowitz-TR2; wordpress is becoming to www what MS Office became to laptops and desktops
14:16 schestowitz-TR2; to the point many people opted out and chose worse: clown and "apps"
14:17 techrights-sec[2]; That would allow for pre-loading posts to appear
14:17 techrights-sec[2]; later. It would not be version control just a postponement of publication
14:17 techrights-sec[2]; If changes are needed, then the post would have to be deleted and a new one
14:17 techrights-sec[2]; created it its place. WordPress is bloated in and of itself but the version
14:17 techrights-sec[2]; control causes the data space to grow at least arithmetically.
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; I think we ought to revisit the publication 'style' in general, seeing that many effective posts
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; can be short but higher in volume
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; not "tweets" but rather rapid updates
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; and some are more or less a template
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; like the irc posts
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; you could almost generate them based on some variables and save a lot of space
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; we don't have any head deadlines or "costs" to "manage", which means less stress
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; (our stupid stupid company still blows like $1000 a month on a few shitty VMs nobody uses 99% of the time
14:21 schestowitz-TR2; that's because of dumb colleagues)
14:35 techrights-sec[2]; Ok it would make sense to review and possibly revise the work flow.
14:35 techrights-sec[2]; What relative to the new TM work flow could be improved?

15:03 schestowitz-TR2; but the way TM works is good for short posts
