09:23 libertybox; gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2022/10/29/eff-and-microsoft/
09:23 libertybox; url not found
09:23 libertybox; I suppose it was something to do with the coup after Barlow died. I would
09:23 libertybox; guess that they were preparing an attack against him and the others already
09:23 libertybox; when he died nd his death only saved them the trouble of fighting him.
09:23 libertybox; I have to say that some of the "staff" there showed their hand years ago
09:23 libertybox; by parroting m$ talking points.
09:36 schestowitz-TR2; th upside is, we recognise what's happening
09:36 libertybox; yes
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; we know who did it
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; on what basis
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; and who with
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; based on some irc gossip
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; what orgs are not compromises or disbanded?
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; ccia/patentprogress were quiet for like 4 months until last week
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; i spoke to ffii this morning
09:57 schestowitz-TR2; no press releases from them in ages
10:02 schestowitz-TR2; rianne says eff was likely bribed
10:02 schestowitz-TR2; i think microsoft offered them "free"
10:02 schestowitz-TR2; for promotion, control, spying
10:02 schestowitz-TR2; either way, someone signed somme paperwork
10:02 schestowitz-TR2; and now eff is infrsstructiorally cointrolled by criminals
10:02 schestowitz-TR2; let that sink in :/
10:21 libertybox; I'm hard pressed to think of an organization which is both still active and
10:21 libertybox; uncompromised. Part of the process of corruption might also be a noticeable
10:21 libertybox; reduction in activity. EFF, FFII, "FSFE", FSF, LF, OSI, Document Foundation,
10:21 libertybox; If the conditions laid out in the license are anything to go by, the main
10:21 libertybox; opponent to the EFF now has full read (and write) access to all their data
10:21 libertybox; including planning discussions and meeting protocols and minutes.
10:21 libertybox; and legal documnents.
10:28 *libertybox is now known as techrights-sec3
10:39 schestowitz-TR2; eff fought some casea against the us gov, e.g. nsa
10:39 schestowitz-TR2; microsoft gives them direct access
10:42 schestowitz-TR2; like watching an ngo in communist china
10:42 schestowitz-TR2; last night we saw a mall with a ton of walled off shops
10:42 schestowitz-TR2; but it was an interesting experience
10:42 schestowitz-TR2; we left too easy so got caught in a crown before getting off board prematurely to avoid that
10:42 schestowitz-TR2; today this should not happen
10:42 schestowitz-TR2; *left too early so got caught in a crowd
10:42 schestowitz-TR2; 6pm is still too busy
10:49 schestowitz-TR2; we diud hear some coughing
10:49 schestowitz-TR2; it's 17 degrees here
10:49 schestowitz-TR2; I peeled off one of the 3 masks later in the journey after the worst of the crowding
10:49 schestowitz-TR2; it was just window shopping except for the food (quater price)
10:49 schestowitz-TR2; *quarter

11:45 schestowitz-TR2; pandemic is "old news" like climate change
11:45 schestowitz-TR2; we also "got tired" of brexit

12:10 schestowitz-TR2; because that "discredits" the state

16:57 techrights-sec3; back in a few hours
17:41 schestowitz-TR2; went out of town for 4 hours, a place we've not visited in years
18:12 schestowitz-TR2; it was not crowded at all and we bought many items long needed, not food
18:12 schestowitz-TR2; also got a lot of sanitisers very cheaply
18:13 schestowitz-TR2; atm I try to get "ahead" of RSS feeds so can do anothe trip tomorrow
18:17 techrights-sec3; A lot of the RSS feeds I have are defunct or very seldomly added to yet there
18:17 techrights-sec3; are so many that they have to be dealt with in 3 or 4 separate sessions.
18:17 techrights-sec3; They'd definitely be way to many to consider if even half were active.
18:17 techrights-sec3; Yet I hope that some of the better ones would get updated more often, even
18:17 techrights-sec3; once a quarter. There were quite a few bloggers that wrote regularly, say
18:17 techrights-sec3; every other month, or every other week, but have gone totally quiet since
18:17 techrights-sec3; last year.
18:37 *DaemonFC (~daemonfc@abqsb93c7szt8.irc) has joined #boycottnovell
18:48 techrights-sec3; I looked at gfeed today but the UI is awful and way too klunky to get anything
18:48 techrights-sec3; done with it. It might not have been designed or tested with more than
18:48 techrights-sec3; a single feed or maybe two or three at the most. QuiteRSS has a good UI
18:48 techrights-sec3; but crashes so often that it is almost not usable, and it seems not to
18:48 techrights-sec3; have been worked on since a year ago if its m$ GitHub account is anything to
18:48 techrights-sec3; go by.
18:49 techrights-sec3; Oh, my. The main developers might be from Russia. If so, they are out for an
18:49 techrights-sec3; indefinite period.
18:49 techrights-sec3; Akregator is a bit hard to use, especially with keys. It seems mouse-only.
18:49 techrights-sec3; Looking at liferea atm
18:49 schestowitz-TR2; there are way to work around quitrss crashing issues
18:49 schestowitz-TR2; impoving the tricks over time
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; I want to expand on your categorisation
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; a) feeds that turn to part-time webspam
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; b) feeds that turn totally spam
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; v) feed that go offline
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; d) feeds that publish so rarely they are not worth the refresh cycle
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; e) feeds that post utter crap all of a suddent (don't want to name any atm)
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; i am going through the weekend list atm, the s/n ratio is not good given that the s was already scooped up by yo
18:58 schestowitz-TR2; u during the week
19:41 techrights-sec3; liferea is good but has crashed
19:41 techrights-sec3; a, b, c, and e can all be culled. I try to leave only d and erase the others.
19:41 techrights-sec3; Some in category d are worth the wait and with the right setting never are seen
19:41 techrights-sec3; until they actually produce something. But the question arises of how long
19:41 techrights-sec3; they should be considered idle and at what point they are to be considered
19:41 techrights-sec3; abandoned?
19:41 techrights-sec3; The feeds I sent you are already covered, as you see. They are now a slight
19:41 techrights-sec3; majority of the remaining news. The formerly reliable news sites have less
19:41 techrights-sec3; and less content, let alone useful content.
19:41 techrights-sec3; QuiteRSS has the 'show only unread' option and that hides the idle feeds
19:41 techrights-sec3; quite well. The problem with QuiteRSS is its crashiness.
19:41 techrights-sec3; Liferea does not manage read/unread properly. It is not usable if that is the
19:41 techrights-sec3; case, it needs to keep track of the status and not re-load line items once they
19:41 techrights-sec3; have been read or marked as read.
19:41 techrights-sec3; It also refuses to accept self-signed certificates. That is likey a misfeature
19:41 techrights-sec3; of the modules they have built the tool from.
