04:13 schestowitz; So it is confirmed. Both the PPA and the UPC Agreement have/will come into force BEFORE the Participating Member States agree upon how crystal-clear language relating to the UK / London will be reinterpreted to permit their entry into force, and subsequent operation.
04:13 schestowitz; Talk about fake it until you make it!
04:13 schestowitz; Whilst I appreciate that the rules for interpreting international laws can be somewhat flexible, it is clear that what is contemplated represents nothing other than substantive amendments to key provisions of international treaties which amendments have no basis whatsoever in any provision of the VCLT.

04:13 schestowitz; I would encourage the representatives of the Netherlands and Italy to have a long, hard think about the following statement of Mr Ramsay.
04:13 schestowitz; Therefore, there will be no section of the central division in London. The Signatory States of the UPC Agreement will discuss and decide where to reallocate this division. However, the entry into force of the Agreement and the start of operation of the Court is not subject to the finalisation of these negotiations.
04:13 schestowitz; If the INITIAL operation of the Court is not subject to the finalisation of these negotiations, then the same is self-evidently true for the CONTINUED operation of the Court. Once the Court is up-and-running, what leverage might any of the other Participating Member States have to persuade France and Germany to relinquish their unexpected Brexit bonus?

04:13 schestowitz; It has been from the beginning the aim of the promoters of the UPC to push it through at any rate and any cost so as to end up with fait accompli.
04:13 schestowitz; It is an absolute disgrace that an official organ of the EU takes a decision on a topic which has not yet been agreed.
04:13 schestowitz; Any judge seeking a job at this court whilst the problem of Art 7(2) UPCA is not correctly solved, that is in a legally binding way, that is by renegotiating it,disqualifies himself.
04:13 schestowitz; That big internationally active industry and big internationally active lawyers firms disregard the clear wording of the terms of a signed and ratified treaty is not a surprise as the committee drafting the RoP was co-opted. They want a good ROI, no more, no less.
04:13 schestowitz; But that judges are accomplices of such an exercise is not tolerable.
04:13 schestowitz; How can trust be given to a court so composed? If cases in IPC classes A and C go to Paris and/or Munich, those sections are in breach of Art 6(1)ECHR!
04:13 schestowitz; How can a court in which a judge can be removed from office by his peers without any means of redress can be a court according Art 6(1)ECHR or in conformity with EU law!

04:14 schestowitz; Second constitutional complaint against UPCA ratification in Germany (11/01/2021, latest update on 09/07/2021)
04:14 schestowitz; After the conclusion of the Parliamentary proceedings on 18/12/2020, a constitutional complaint has been filed against the German ratification of the UPCA, concomitantly requesting the court to oblige the involved institutions by an interim order (einstweilige Anordnung) to desist from completing the ratification process until a decision in the proceedings on the merits (docket no. 2 BvR 2217/20).
04:14 schestowitz; The Federal Constitutional Court (BVerfG) has sent the constitutional complaint to the German Parliament, the Federal Council, the Chancellors Office, the Federal Ministry of the Interior, the Federal Ministry of Justice and Consumer Protection and to the Foreign Office for their comments on the application to grant an interim order. Whether coordination took place between the BVerfG and the Federal President as to the further progress
04:14 schestowitz; of the ratification process is currently not known.
04:14 schestowitz; Those wanting to support this constitutional complaint, can do so here.
04:14 schestowitz; According to press reports, the BVerfG received a further constitutional complaint in relation to the ratification of the UPCA in Germany (docket no. 2 BvR 2216/20). No further details are known yet.
04:14 schestowitz; Update (19 and 20/01/2021):
04:14 schestowitz; In its 127th session on 13/01/2021, the Committee on Legal Affairs and Consumer Protection recommended to the German Parliament, by a majority, to intervene in proceedings 2 BvR 2216/20 and 2 BvR 2217/20 and to submit a statement also in the proceedings on the merits, subsequent to the one filed in the procedings for the grant of an interim order already (Parliament printed matter 19/25829 [German language]).
04:14 schestowitz; In its 204th session on 14/01/2021, the German Parliament has followed this recommendation by a majority (protocol, p. 25685 (A) [German language]).
04:14 schestowitz; Update (09/02/2021):
04:14 schestowitz; Immediately after the start of the new Parliamentary proceedings for the ratification of the UPCA in August 2020, all Parliamentary groups from the opposition in the German Parliament were comprehensively informed in writing on 21/09/2020 about the legal problems of the UPCA and its risks for small and medium-sized enterprises and were requested to raise these problems in the Parliamentary proceedings. Included were several questions which the
04:14 schestowitz; German Federal government could be asked to answer (cf. letter of 21/09/2020 [German language] and English office translation).
04:14 schestowitz; On 27/10/2020, the FDP Parliamentary group submitted a Parliamentary interpellation requesting the German Federal government to answer several of the questions raised in this letter (cf. Parliament printed matter 19/23651 [German language]). It is worthy to note which questions from the letter were avoided or were asked with a different wording.
04:14 schestowitz; The German Federal government answered on 10/11/2020 (cf. Parliament printed matter 19/24197 [German language]).
04:14 schestowitz; In a further letter sent to all Parliamentary groups from the opposition in the German Bundestag on 09/11/2020, they were asked to assess whether they would wish to make use of their right to initiate a procedure for judicial review at the BVerfG as a means to clarify the questions as to the compatibility of the UPCA with the Grundgesetz (cf. letter of 09/11/2020 [German language] and English office translation). No reply was received.
04:15 schestowitz; Update (09/07/2021):
04:15 schestowitz; With decision of 23/06/2021 (German language), the BVerfG has rejected the request to oblige the involved institutions by an interim order (einstweilige Anordnung) to desist from completing the UPCA ratification process until a decision in the proceedings on the merits (docket no. 2 BvR 2217/20) (also cf. the courts press statement no. 57/2021 of 09/07/2021).

04:15 schestowitz; "
04:15 schestowitz; Update (12/02/2021):
04:15 schestowitz; With an unanimous Senate decision of 01/12/2020 (German language), in which no reasons were provided, the Federal Constitutional Court (BVerfG) has determined the value in dispute for constitutional complaint proceedings 2 BvR 739/17. This decision is a basic prerequisite for the reimbursement of costs, at the BVerfG it is only made on application. The decision took the court more than eight months instead of the four weeks it usually
04:15 schestowitz; requires.
04:15 schestowitz; For the proceedings on the merits, the BVerfG has set an amount of EUR 250,000.00, which is considerably lower than the EUR 1,000,000.00 usually determined in constitutional complaint proceedings with a similar subject matter. On this basis, the complainants cost reimbursement claim against the Federal Republic of Germany for the proceedings on the merits amounts to EUR 3,604.80 plus expenses.
04:15 schestowitz; In the same decision, the BVerfG also ruled, as requested, that the Federal Republic of Germany is obliged to cost reimbursement also in the proceedings for the grant of an interim order. The value in dispute was set here in accordance with the usual approach at 50 percent of the value of the proceedings on the merits, i.e. EUR 125,000.00. On this basis, the complainants cost reimbursement claim against the Federal Republic of Germany
04:15 schestowitz; in the proceedings for the grant of an interim order amounts to EUR 2,540.80 plus expenses.
04:15 schestowitz; Thus, the complainants overall cost reimbursement claim amounts to EUR 6.145,60 plus expenses.
04:15 schestowitz; If you would like to support his work on the European patent reform, you can do so here.
04:15 schestowitz; Update (25/06/2021):
04:15 schestowitz; As reported previously, it took the BVerfG roughly nine months to simply determine the value in dispute of case 2 BvR 739/17 which finally happened in December 2020. The value was set at 25 percent of that determined by the court in similar cases, without reasons being given.
04:15 schestowitz; The requests for costs reimbursement filed on this basis are now pending with the BVerfG since roughly seven months. At the end of May 2021, the BVerfG had not even sent the reimbursement requests to the German government for comments which is a necessary condition before a cost order can be issued.
04:15 schestowitz; Cost reimbursement proceedings before German courts usually take two to three months, before the BVerfG sometimes twice as long. In case 2 BvR 739/17 we are now at 15 months, with no end in sight; no cost reimbursement was allowed to take place yet.
04:16 schestowitz; What do you think is the reason for this conduct of the so-called citizens courts Second Senate, the new Presiding judge of which was part of the minority of three judges voting to reject the constitutional complaint?
04:16 schestowitz; Update (10/09/2021):
04:16 schestowitz; The reimbursement of costs in proceedings 2 BvR 739/17 has still not been completed even roughly 18 months after the relevant decision was issued, cost reimbursement orders have still not been issued.
04:16 schestowitz; On 29/07/2021, the BVerfG indicated that it now had forwarded the cost reimbursement applications to the respondent for comment some eight months after they were first submitted.
04:16 schestowitz; It remains to be seen whether it was ultimately the proceedings that took longer or the reimbursement of costs.

04:17 schestowitz; A comment on the BVerfGs decision of 23/06/2021 in matter 2 BvR 2217/20 (09/07/2021)
04:17 schestowitz; Rechtsanwalt Dr Stjerna, complainant in matter 2 BvR 2217/20, comments as follows:
04:17 schestowitz; Todays decision of the BVerfG does not come as a surprise. Already the first UPCA decision shows that its considerations are primarily politically dominated and that legal issues play at best a subordinate role. This is a necessary consequence of the close ties between the BVerfG judges and party politics. I had already pointed this out in 2018 in an article on the first UPCA constitutional complaint proceedings and raised the question how
04:17 schestowitz; independent the examination by judges, who are appointed under political considerations, would be in this legislative project which was politically highly desired across party lines and passed with positive knowledge of all constitutional issues. With its decision, the BVerfG has once again made its contribution to the implementation of a legally questionable political agenda, and citizens trust in its function as the guardian of the
04:17 schestowitz; constitution is likely to continue to dwindle.
04:17 schestowitz; After the decision, also the main proceedings on the UPCA are now likely to be unsuccessful. The conclusion of the German UPCA ratification, which can now be expected shortly, will cause a binding effect under international law which cannot easily be removed. This also limits the possibilities of further legal action against the Agreement itself.

10:01 schestowitz; it back and refuse these conditions.</p>
10:01 schestowitz; <p>After hearing about this, I couldn't provide an immediate solution but I felt it would be useful to put together some notes about free software and open hardware products. Hopefully this will help all of us to be more aware of the choices before buying and installing the wrong products.</p></blockquote></li>
10:04 Techrights-sec; I have my script checking every 300 seconds, just HTTP HEAD requests not
10:04 Techrights-sec; a full page fetch.
10:05 schestowitz-TR2; that's good, at least we have multiple checkers. oh, how I wish this issue would 'blow over'... seeing it did vanish before, for 3 days.
10:08 Techrights-sec; Yesterday one of the pfp-fpm processes was running away, actually several,
10:08 Techrights-sec; but as one reached 99% I killed it and all the others returned to normal.
10:08 Techrights-sec; So maybe that is a clue.
10:09 schestowitz-TR2; maybe it is a very specific request, or alternatively we can check about killing long-running queries pre-emptively?
10:11 Techrights-sec; periodically run pkill -o php-fpm ? That's more of a kludge.
10:11 schestowitz-TR2; no, only a process that seems to be a hog. maybe there are some 'ready made' scripts like that
10:22 Techrights-sec; ps -ax -o user,pid,%cpu,time | sort -k3,3rn -k4,4r| head
10:22 Techrights-sec; then pick the top 1 or 2 and send a kill signal?
10:22 Techrights-sec; if CPU usage is over x percent
10:22 Techrights-sec; none of the common commands for limiting CPU use are currently installed...
10:22 schestowitz-TR2; interesting. can that be confined to a process type?
10:28 Techrights-sec;
10:28 Techrights-sec; what kind of type? args is another outut and AWK could filter on it, too.
10:28 Techrights-sec; ps -ax -o user,pid,%cpu,time,args | sort -k3,3rn -k4,4r| awk '$3>3 && $5~/^php/ {
10:28 Techrights-sec; print $2,$1,$4,$3,$5; cmd="kill " $2; }' OFS="\t"
10:29 schestowitz-TR2; yes, that might be a useful approach, assuming one process causes a chain reactio
10:29 schestowitz-TR2; n and stops apache
10:35 Techrights-sec; ps -ax -o user,pid,%cpu,time,args | sort -k3,3rn -k4,4r | awk '$3>93 && $5~/^php/
10:35 Techrights-sec; {print $2,$1,$4,$3,$5; cmd="kill " $2; cmd | getline r; }' OFS="\t"
10:36 schestowitz-TR2; if all it can kill is a php process, than I suppose it's safe to run
10:36 schestowitz-TR2; i suppose most of these operations, or hope, are just reading from DB
10:40 schestowitz-TR2; timeout in site
10:40 schestowitz-TR2; was this a test run or incident?
10:40 Techrights-sec; the ps line won't help once Apache2 has frozen
10:40 Techrights-sec; yes
10:40 Techrights-sec; timeout now restarting
10:40 Techrights-sec; it was an actual timeout like the others
10:40 Techrights-sec; though I took the opportunity to see if it wa possible to unfreeze httpd using
10:40 Techrights-sec; awk

10:46 schestowitz; # is this a scam site?
10:47 schestowitz; I saw this site in passing before, I think it was mentions as a legit option
10:47 Techrights-sec; so three such hiccups in the last few hours
10:53 Techrights-sec; I wonder what they do with or two the files uploaded
10:53 Techrights-sec; What is their business model or reason for operating? THere is almost no
10:53 Techrights-sec; information on their site.
10:54 schestowitz-TR2; not just them
10:54 schestowitz-TR2; not just that
10:54 schestowitz-TR2; all the file sharing 'services'
10:54 schestowitz-TR2; and 'free' chat 'services'
11:32 schestowitz-TR2; vulpes proxy is bbaaaaackk
11:32 schestowitz-TR2; after about 2 weeks
11:36 schestowitz-TR2; OTA in a moment
11:36 schestowitz-TR2; ftr, vulpes is good as it bypass JS and other cruft
11:36 schestowitz-TR2; I have a fallback for when it is down
11:36 schestowitz-TR2; but vulpes is a lot nicer
11:36 schestowitz-TR2; OTA

12:53 schestowitz-TR2; .
12:54 schestowitz-TR2; done
12:54 schestowitz-TR2; i had to stgop recording
12:54 schestowitz-TR2; but it had already covered the importaqnt points
12:54 schestowitz-TR2; it's about CAs
12:54 Techrights-sec; ack
12:54 schestowitz-TR2; thanks for covering my back, now I can process the two videos, which is time-effi
12:54 schestowitz-TR2; cient and easy rom the POV of user intervention not being required
13:10 schestowitz-TR2; another draft deposited :-)
13:14 Techrights-sec; It would be worth checking the various TLS libraries and modules to see
13:14 Techrights-sec; if they accept self-signed certificates. wget and curl don't, at least by
13:14 Techrights-sec; default.
13:14 Techrights-sec; If I recall correctly wget does not accept them at all the only choice with
13:14 Techrights-sec; them is to ignore them if wget hasto eb sued.
13:18 schestowitz-TR2; improved clarity a bit and added your remark, which really surprised me
13:21 Techrights-sec; ack
13:21 Techrights-sec; s/sued/used/
13:21 Techrights-sec; curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
13:21 Techrights-sec; wget: ERROR: The certificate of example.ddns.net is not trusted.
13:21 Techrights-sec; ERROR: The certificate of example.ddns.net doesn't have a known issuer.
13:22 schestowitz-TR2; good to have this confirmed, and thanks for the typo correction, I now expect about 3 hours of processing/upload
13:24 Techrights-sec; np
14:23 schestowitz-TR2; restarting
14:23 schestowitz-TR2; at least this did not persist an on hourly basis
14:26 Techrights-sec; yes, but it is still a problem to be solved
15:17 schestowitz-TR2; processing of video #2 has commenced, I've added one image to its rdraft

15:27 schestowitz; I was introduced to the world of Linux back in 2016 when I was working on compiling android from source. Like most people, I started with Ubuntu. I didnt explore Linux much at the time other than building android, and that was it.
15:27 schestowitz; However, things changed in 2018 when I got my PC. Since I already knew about Linux, I decided to dual-boot and explore a new operating system. Slowly, I stopped using the Windows partition and removed it altogether in early 2020.
