9 AM, February 28

09:10 Techrights-sec; shall I use the new format for today's links or wait till tomorrow?

09:10 schestowitz-TR; I've just git pulled, thanks for making the changes

09:10 schestowitz-TR; I am still not sure what will happen after Friday when JS shuts down

09:10 schestowitz-TR; techdirt is now on wordpress

09:10 schestowitz-TR; the site itself looks almost the same

09:15 Techrights-sec; I hope the TechDirt migration is problem free. It was probably a lot of work to

09:15 Techrights-sec; ensure a consistent appearance. That makes it seem likely that a theme

09:15 Techrights-sec; can be modified to keep the current appearance of TR in a newer version of

09:15 Techrights-sec; WordPress

09:17 schestowitz-TR; yes.

09:17 schestowitz-TR; but this is not the problem.

09:17 schestowitz-TR; I saw recent versions of WP.

09:17 schestowitz-TR; Mostly at work.,

09:17 schestowitz-TR; I did not want to overwhelm you with things overnight.

09:17 schestowitz-TR; But one thing that came to mind was,

09:17 schestowitz-TR; I wonder if their RSS feeds' structure will require adaptation

09:17 schestowitz-TR; at our end.

09:17 schestowitz-TR; Also, I have a draft ready (first pass only),

09:17 schestowitz-TR; for the next post

09:17 Techrights-sec; Ill try to remember to check

09:17 Techrights-sec; checking draft

09:22 Techrights-sec; s/secone/second/

09:22 Techrights-sec; maybe start out in the first paragaraph with what is in the third paragraph

09:22 Techrights-sec; at the moment. It's the importnat thesis to be covered in the post perhaps?

09:23 schestowitz-TR; Thanks, I am going to take a look in a moment. Got a long list of things lined up, maybe even next part on github. The long videos are a bit of a venting outlet, as reading so many lies and then reacting was no joy \(but necessary)

09:27 Techrights-sec; I'm noticing more that this conflict is causing further normalization of

09:27 Techrights-sec; government misuse of social control media.

09:27 schestowitz-TR; see my latest post in schestowitz.com/Weblog

09:29 *activelow (~activelow@uyycfdpcfwkrc.irc) has joined #boycottnovell

09:58 schestowitz-TR; watching the privacy 90m min videos

09:58 schestowitz-TR; yes, it's what reddit it


10 AM, February 28

10:04 Techrights-sec; ack

10:08 schestowitz-TR; it will be interesting to see how it feels not to do social control medioa

10:08 schestowitz-TR; for an unknown period of time

10:08 schestowitz-TR; they say they don't know how long migration of data will take

10:08 schestowitz-TR; and I also assume I'm not supposed to open a new account until I can import thing

10:08 schestowitz-TR; s into it

10:08 schestowitz-TR; as the data would not be additive and cannot be just merged in

10:08 schestowitz-TR; maybe at the end I'll just decide that it's better without such accounts

10:08 schestowitz-TR; I feel bad for Roch, listening to him for like 30 mins already

10:08 schestowitz-TR; i can relate tro what he says

10:08 schestowitz-TR; even though I cannot see any of he copntext

10:08 schestowitz-TR; like reddit bullies

10:08 schestowitz-TR; when I did boycottnovell 15 years agoi

10:08 schestowitz-TR; the same tacticsw were used

10:08 schestowitz-TR; discrediting people with actual experienc

10:08 schestowitz-TR; and by sheer quantity they can overwhelkm the person

10:08 schestowitz-TR; and then he needs to spend hours trying to justift hisemf

10:08 schestowitz-TR; instead of actually doing fucking useful writings or video

10:08 schestowitz-TR; putting him on the defensive

10:08 Techrights-sec; ack

10:08 Techrights-sec; saturate, diffuse, confuse ...

10:08 Techrights-sec; Eschew social control media for the duration of Lent?

10:08 Techrights-sec; Or permanently?

10:24 schestowitz-TR; on firday nighth we all get cut off

10:24 schestowitz-TR; then I will see how time management and owrkflow and mood change

10:24 schestowitz-TR; remember that identi.ca I started in 2009

10:24 schestowitz-TR; prior to that I did not bothers with these things and could focus on USENET and

10:24 schestowitz-TR; boycottnovell

10:24 Techrights-sec; Yes accounts get lost when instance get shut down.

10:24 Techrights-sec; Social control media is particularly ephemeral.

10:27 Techrights-sec; UseNet was good in its time but astroturfers and shills havce been used

10:27 Techrights-sec; en masse to ruin it. However, more importantly, ISPs stopped providing

10:27 Techrights-sec; UseNet hosting and stopped even mentioning it.

10:29 schestowitz-TR; I have just closed the video of Rob

10:29 schestowitz-TR; he's playing into the hands of the attackers

10:29 schestowitz-TR; by trying too justify himsef

10:29 schestowitz-TR; and showing off

10:29 schestowitz-TR; people like these neeed to be ignoired

10:29 schestowitz-TR; he sort of gives them a platform

10:29 schestowitz-TR; and the impression of equal footing

10:29 schestowitz-TR; which is likely what they want

10:29 schestowitz-TR; he could make 9 1-0minute videos expoising new information instead

10:29 schestowitz-TR; reddit is not a country

10:29 schestowitz-TR; and it should be treated as a trollzone

10:29 Techrights-sec; still unsolved: https://macaudailytimes.com.mo/1986-swedish-prime-minister-assass

↺ https://macaudailytimes.com.mo/1986-swedish-prime-minister-assass

10:29 Techrights-sec; nated.html

10:29 Techrights-sec; The have him on the defensive / reacting, it's a bad position

10:29 Techrights-sec; Not necessarilky ignored but the provocations ignored and focus on what

10:29 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell- ( status 404 @ https://macaudailytimes.com.mo/1986-swedish-prime-minister-assass )

↺ https://macaudailytimes.com.mo/1986-swedish-prime-minister-assass

10:29 Techrights-sec; they are distracting from.

10:29 Techrights-sec; ack

10:29 Techrights-sec; Corporate astroturfer zone.

10:31 schestowitz-TR; I agree with that last point

10:31 schestowitz-TR; do not say what they claim

10:31 schestowitz-TR; you can take note

10:31 schestowitz-TR; write down the subject at hand

10:31 schestowitz-TR; then repeat what you said before

10:31 schestowitz-TR; again and again

10:31 schestowitz-TR; don't acknowledge the smears

10:31 schestowitz-TR; it is a lot more effective

10:32 schestowitz-TR; in the case of ukraine, atm, we need toi remind people of the role of windows

10:32 schestowitz-TR; the microsoftie sites try to mnetion "Linux" in contexts that would

10:32 schestowitz-TR; distract from it


11 AM, February 28

11:07 Techrights-sec; yes all countries are at a severe disadvantage because of M$ politics

11:07 Techrights-sec; M4 /is/ politics and has little to nothing to do with actual IT except

11:07 Techrights-sec; that it is able to block its deployment

11:07 Techrights-sec; and replace IT staff with mind-numbed drones incapably of coherent, logical

11:07 Techrights-sec; thought but good at rote memorization of various M$ rites.

11:07 Techrights-sec; As you pointed out it is too late to upgrade infrastructure once a serious

11:08 Techrights-sec; physical attack has started.

11:52 schestowitz; I assume you were testing that

11:52 schestowitz; afaik, it's not listed yet publicly, except in stats

11:53 schestowitz; and later there's some aggregation plan, to help us include lots of stuff from gemini:// in Daily Links

11:54 Techrights-sec; yes the testing is still in progress

11:54 schestowitz-TR; thanks a lot

11:54 schestowitz-TR; I'll record another EPO video, gotr new material

11:54 schestowitz-TR; ota


noon, February 28

12:38 *activelow has quit (Quit: leaving)

12:53 schestowitz-TR; done with the video

12:53 schestowitz-TR; i actually felt inspirede by Rob

12:53 schestowitz-TR; but in the negative sense

12:53 schestowitz-TR; in the sense that it reinforced my view

12:53 schestowitz-TR; that responding to online trolls leads to

12:53 schestowitz-TR; bad things, aside from a waste of time

12:53 schestowitz-TR; like his showing off again and again

12:53 schestowitz-TR; he should know better

12:53 schestowitz-TR; but my guess is that they stuck a nerve

12:53 schestowitz-TR; which is likely the objective

12:53 schestowitz-TR; like calling an old man senile or crank

1 PM, February 28

13:46 Techrights-sec; The acronym GCC could be expanded and a few words about its role and importance

13:46 Techrights-sec; added. Can EPO examiners try to shop their story around to their respective

13:46 Techrights-sec; national news sites?

13:46 schestowitz-TR; they can try, but the instructions from above say leave the EPO alone..

13:47 Techrights-sec; That in itself would be very important to track down and document.

13:49 Techrights-sec; What about a followup of some kind?

13:50 schestowitz-TR; tehre is almost nobody to talk to...

13:53 Techrights-sec; Probably. However, it would be possible that new people turn up periodically

13:53 Techrights-sec; and the task of finding them is difficult..

15:14 schestowitz-TR; mind if I use the list?

15:14 Techrights-sec; The list of national broadcasters can be of use to EPO staff in reaching out

15:14 Techrights-sec; about the upcoming strike. Given that the EPO is the second largest

15:14 Techrights-sec; international organisation in Europe, the news is relevant to the memeber

15:14 Techrights-sec; states. However, they would have to be contacted by native speakers and,

15:14 Techrights-sec; perferably, residents or nationals.

15:14 Techrights-sec; It's for you to use and pass around too.
