10:05 techrightssec2; m$ never bought strong companies with quality products. Even with Nokia they
10:05 techrightssec2; only bought it after their mole had devastated not only its worth and its
10:05 techrightssec2; product line but also its reputation.
10:09 schestowitz-TR; strong companies with qualit products need no help from Microsoft
10:09 schestowitz-TR; and I should put scare quotes around "help"
10:09 schestowitz-TR; Novell was chasing Red Hat
10:09 schestowitz-TR; In recent years Red Hat was chasing all sorts of things, inc. AWS
10:09 schestowitz-TR; AWS offers RHEL, but most of the "rent" goes towards the landlord
10:09 schestowitz-TR; not the company that wheels in a piece of furnishing once in 3 years
10:09 schestowitz-TR; I have dozens of parts left in the big series
10:09 schestowitz-TR; and some will deal with outsourcing and clown, based on first-hand experience
10:09 schestowitz-TR; so I hope there is value in what I learned
10:09 schestowitz-TR; btw, I foolishly wasted time in twitter
10:09 schestowitz-TR; I landed in one page and then started going astra
10:09 schestowitz-TR; until the "where did the time go??" moment
10:09 schestowitz-TR; I think I ended up in some qatar BS (World Cup)
10:09 schestowitz-TR; watching some shitposts of a Manchester United footballer
10:09 schestowitz-TR; either way: lesson learned, stay away!
10:09 schestowitz-TR; I did do a video about twitter 2 days ago
10:09 schestowitz-TR; mentioned KSA and Qatar along the way
10:16 schestowitz-TR; ---
10:16 schestowitz-TR; some outdated messages
10:16 schestowitz-TR; removed personal things
10:16 schestowitz-TR; it's OK now
10:24 schestowitz-TR; ---
10:24 schestowitz-TR; wanted to add: the above is applicable to mastodon also
10:24 schestowitz-TR; they also do "trending" and the like
10:24 schestowitz-TR; they mimick "enagagement" BS
10:24 schestowitz-TR; and it's hard to keepo tracki of ongoing comms
10:24 schestowitz-TR; so they are best off avoided entirely
10:24 schestowitz-TR; for focus and reliable info
10:39 techrightssec2; ack
10:43 schestowitz-TR; it is worse than you think
10:43 schestowitz-TR; in latest falkon, in debian 10 at least, even having js does not let me into "modern" mastodon
10:43 schestowitz-TR; iow, it is shitware
10:44 schestowitz-TR; one of the bloggers you follow analysed the code
10:44 schestowitz-TR; said it was the 2010s standard
10:44 schestowitz-TR; I'd go further back
10:44 schestowitz-TR; and say 1990s standards would be fine
10:44 schestowitz-TR; someone in irc, dfc iirc, said that the story of eich and js was,
10:44 schestowitz-TR; it got 'accidentally added to nettscape after he had tinkered or tested something
10:44 schestowitz-TR; so no foresight
10:44 schestowitz-TR; sort of like acvctivex, except that one was intended to add vendor lock-in
10:44 schestowitz-TR; rather than functionality
10:44 schestowitz-TR; apropos js, git was written only briefly by torvalds
10:44 schestowitz-TR; months iirc
10:44 schestowitz-TR; quick hack
10:44 schestowitz-TR; later it was adopted and improved by others
10:44 schestowitz-TR; sort of like jimbo and sagner with wikipedia

11:04 techrightssec2; Re-scraping TM-old at the moment. Started wget many hours ago.
11:05 schestowitz-TR; I am getting a db copy off of it atm
11:05 schestowitz-TR; *atm
11:05 techrightssec2; ok so the two actions will slow it down quite a bit
11:15 techrightssec2; Just aiming for getting the complete gallery and nothing more for now.
11:24 schestowitz-TR; ok, done. got 3 DB states
11:24 schestowitz-TR; before disk issues, after repair, and latest
11:24 schestowitz-TR; when we get fibre here in 5 weeks I should be able to make proper backups of file systems too
11:24 schestowitz-TR; I hope you have one of TR< even if outdated
11:25 schestowitz-TR; biab
11:25 schestowitz-TR; hardly feels like we had holiday, weekend++
11:43 schestowitz-TR; this routine can be good all year long
11:43 schestowitz-TR; but...
11:43 schestowitz-TR; the important thing is, stress should be kept down
11:43 schestowitz-TR; I slept 8 hours last night, first time in years, I think
