13:00 Techrights-sec; just checked the news, there was virtually nothing
13:00 Techrights-sec; after looking at many, many sites
13:09 schestowitz-TR; the timing you typed this is funny because rianne told me 1 min ago that she had checked the news twice
13:09 schestowitz-TR; and "there is nothing"
13:09 schestowitz-TR; I'd left that aside to do "deeper" research, such as the photo ops [sic] I extracted from a long video
13:10 schestowitz-TR; those will come in handy later
13:10 schestowitz-TR; there's always *soemthing* to write about, but it's not immediately there and might be in the past
13:10 Techrights-sec; well, today, there is basically no coverage of anything tech anywhere
13:10 Techrights-sec; that I can find, I've checked a *large* number of the usual (and some unusual)
13:10 Techrights-sec; sites
13:10 schestowitz-TR; same here
13:12 Techrights-sec; I check mastodon weekly, though without an account, but that is always such
13:12 Techrights-sec; a low yield that the next check is not due until the weekend
13:12 schestowitz-TR; ask yourself if:
13:12 schestowitz-TR; - had you not checked it, you would have missed something very important
13:12 schestowitz-TR; - if time unix x in mastodon was more constructive than the same time unit reading rss feeds
13:14 Techrights-sec; no, there is rarely anything important but more occasionally something
13:14 Techrights-sec; interesting. however the yield is so damn low that it is more of a chore
13:14 Techrights-sec; to even think about mastodon
13:14 Techrights-sec; RSS feeds are good, but take a *lot* of time to go through. I'm not sure how
13:14 Techrights-sec; many blog feeds I have but it is quite a lot, then there are more regular
13:14 Techrights-sec; news sources via RSS as well. I'll check those tomorrow or the day after.
13:14 Techrights-sec; It takes a few days for worthwile links to build up there and I just checked
13:14 Techrights-sec; thoroughly the other day.
13:14 schestowitz-TR; I have tricks for reading rss feeds since ages ago
13:14 schestowitz-TR; you let them build up, then cluster baased on site, date, or key filter
13:14 schestowitz-TR; makes them easier to group and digest
13:14 Techrights-sec; Yes similar to my method.
13:31 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #boycottnovell
13:36 Techrights-sec; the general ones are bit harder and though many of the blogs follow theme
13:36 Techrights-sec; or reasonably narrow interests, they still take a lot of time to cull
13:36 Techrights-sec; If I could master the GUI component of Python, I could probably write
13:36 Techrights-sec; a reasonabel RSS/Atom feed reader by now.
13:36 schestowitz-TR; in the cli some heuristics would be easy
13:36 schestowitz-TR; not sure about the gui stuff
13:37 Techrights-sec; not sure, sometimes the most interesting material is lacking in the expected
13:37 Techrights-sec; terms, phrases, and keywords.
13:42 schestowitz-TR; draft
13:42 schestowitz-TR; having a go at the "FOK YUS" (focus) president
13:42 schestowitz-TR; you need to click on the link that says "context"
13:43 Techrights-sec; ack
13:43 Techrights-sec; not sure the car crash material is relevant unless a direct tie to showing
13:43 Techrights-sec; how diplomatic immunity was abused or how alcohol was involved
13:43 Techrights-sec; the text needs to stand on its own and the link be supplemental.
13:43 Techrights-sec; Remember that some of the best audience is via Gemini
13:44 schestowitz-TR; what the meme says is not really a joke
13:44 schestowitz-TR; it is factual
13:44 Techrights-sec; yes, that can be emphasized then, because too often the "memes" are jokes and
13:44 Techrights-sec; not serious
13:48 schestowitz-TR; right, amending..
13:48 schestowitz-TR; (btw, it's common knowledge in EPO... the story about the son)
13:48 schestowitz-TR; from what I am hearing, campinos is already done for the count because he's not supported by EPO "users"
13:48 schestowitz-TR; (never mind 'his' staff)
13:48 schestowitz-TR; we need to drain this whole "swamp"
13:48 schestowitz-TR; but it'll take huge effort and coordination
13:48 schestowitz-TR; then, upc too would go away faster
13:48 schestowitz-TR; (along with swpats hey hi 4ir bs)
13:51 schestowitz-TR; question: can we do some so-called 'data science' around death asnd dreath of the news
13:51 schestowitz-TR; like, based on "Links" or some archives on your PC?
13:51 schestowitz-TR; That in itself would be an interesting topic re the WWW
13:51 schestowitz-TR; somethign numeric rather than guy feeling
13:51 schestowitz-TR; *gut
13:52 Techrights-sec; I'm not sure how we can extract relevant material from the strings which make
13:52 Techrights-sec; up the web pages linked to
13:52 schestowitz-TR; about 12 years ago I used thunderbird archives to show the depletition of news about "Ubuntu"
13:52 schestowitz-TR; when the distro was losing its relevance
13:52 schestowitz-TR; or maybe just the media
15:08 schestowitz-TR; ota epo
15:08 schestowitz-TR; done
15:08 schestowitz-TR; I basically expand upon the EPO posts that are mostly photos and memes
15:08 schestowitz-TR; I expect us to have lots of material soon
15:08 schestowitz-TR; and it can drive the orange one off the edge
15:08 schestowitz-TR; they have meeting in 4 weeks
15:09 schestowitz-TR; to decide whether to replace him
15:18 Techrights-sec; ack
15:18 Techrights-sec; I hope he is replaced but the nepotism and corruption must be also fixed at
15:18 Techrights-sec; the same time or the series of clowns will continue
15:18 schestowitz-TR; they will try hard to cover up what happened the past 12 years
15:18 schestowitz-TR; because so many are complicity at several levels

16:11 schestowitz-TR; push out the meme now in drafts
16:11 schestowitz-TR; I want to remind those who decide that they can and should replace him
16:11 schestowitz-TR; just added the text of the video as well
16:11 schestowitz-TR; we have a real opportunity to make profound change
16:12 Techrights-sec; ack

18:03 schestowitz-TR; <techrights-news> Both Biden and Trump have been bailing out Microsoft with obscene military ("defence") contracts and the partisan media hardly talks about it. How much the next round of bailout? 30+ billion?
18:04 Techrights-sec; ack
18:04 Techrights-sec; M$ decrease by 1% down to %3 out of all sites.
18:04 Techrights-sec; HOlding at 3% for active sites
18:04 Techrights-sec; I'm still surprise it is even that high.
18:07 schestowitz-TR; Microsoft-sponsored media says Microsoft-sponsored Linux FUD https://www.csoonline.com/article/3662151/linux-malware-is-on-the-rise-6-types-of-attacks-to-look-for.html the real issue is Windows, not "Linux" http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/Microsoft_and_the_NSA

18:12 Techrights-sec; or arrested for deploying M$ in production environments
18:15 schestowitz-TR; everyone gets tired for deploying MS
18:15 schestowitz-TR; nobody gets hired for deploying MS
18:15 schestowitz-TR; nowadays you get fired for it
18:15 schestowitz-TR; and in some US states the firing line is back as an option for capital punishment

18:45 schestowitz-TR; like people who do livestreams of mass murders
18:45 schestowitz-TR; news very slow todayr
18:45 schestowitz-TR; rianne too has found almost nothing

18:45 schestowitz-TR; old videos (when it was expensive and scarce): 5-course meal
18:45 schestowitz-TR; now: candy
18:45 schestowitz-TR; grindr is to relationship ("apps") what....
18:45 schestowitz-TR; I think they "hackd" the system, like "blooper" shows in place of films
