02:53 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: I haven't seen any improvement to Web compatibility in the latest SeaMonkey.
02:53 DaemonFC; They said there was some.
02:54 schestowitz[TR]; it doesn't matter to me much
02:54 schestowitz[TR]; because
02:54 schestowitz[TR]; 1) i use the www less
02:54 schestowitz[TR]; 2) you can avoid sites that are poor on comparibility
02:55 schestowitz[TR]; 3) they try to accomplish the impossible
02:55 schestowitz[TR]; like trying to implementr OOXML
02:55 schestowitz[TR]; Even Microsoft does not implement OOXML
02:55 schestowitz[TR]; The WWW became even more complex than OOXML
02:55 schestowitz[TR]; and you add EME/DRM on top
02:55 schestowitz[TR]; and what's more to come... who knows?
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; I gues a laugh when..
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; sites say stuff like
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; now you can run X in a browser
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; OS
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; Games
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; because they hjust throw everythiong into "the browser"
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; like wasm
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; and then say, "LOOK! YOU CAN DO THIS IN THE BROWSER"
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; at this point cull the browser
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; open virtualbox
02:56 schestowitz[TR]; install OS
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; and say,
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; "HEY, YOU CAN DO THIS IN virtualbox!!!!"
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; and it performs well
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; cross platform
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; so browser is just not for pages
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; it'sjute many PAPIs cobbled together
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; not jujst JS
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; with many proprietary "framerwork as de facto modules or extensions for the "browser"
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; like vue.js
02:57 schestowitz[TR]; or react.js
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; they basdically send you huge extensions
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; to your browser
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; and then insist it's "web-based"
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; it's just some binary-iwh
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; ior runtime-level code
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; for you to run some progream on YOUR machine
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; not the server/backend
02:58 schestowitz[TR]; the browser is not some rendere or some remote content
02:59 schestowitz[TR]; it's just transmitting some binaries to you

04:05 schestowitz[TR]; the headline is correct
04:05 AdmFubar; what is he now a child?
04:05 schestowitz[TR]; no
04:05 schestowitz[TR]; he said this after his phd

04:06 DaemonFC; I have no idea what GULAG did to YouTube to get it to misbehave.
04:06 schestowitz[TR]; he has also been contantly trolling IRC for years
04:06 schestowitz[TR]; and uses as a edge
04:06 schestowitz[TR]; something he himself was guilty of
04:06 *techuser has quit (connection closed)
04:07 DaemonFC; But there's like 5 video sites including that which I have now dropped my "Safari on iPad" UA hack.
04:07 schestowitz[TR]; just to waste our time
04:07 schestowitz[TR]; and distract from legal and tech discussions we were hyaving
04:07 DaemonFC; So I guess something changed.
04:07 schestowitz[TR]; image fixed to not mention name

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; he said so himself
04:08 schestowitz[TR]; about himself
04:08 schestowitz[TR]; anyway, it is factual
04:08 schestowitz[TR]; and cites himself as the source
04:08 Ariadne; i wonder what any of this has to do with tech rights
04:08 schestowitz[TR]; it does not
04:08 schestowitz[TR]; that's the point
04:08 schestowitz[TR]; he is trolling people
04:08 schestowitz[TR]; like rms
04:09 schestowitz[TR]; and I point this out

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; and someone was offended
04:10 schestowitz[TR]; I think he was anti-abortion
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; so I just don't bring up the subject much
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; turns out,l being pro-abortion gets trolls to target you too
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; because it is divisive
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; esp. in us
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; not in europe
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; escept maybe poland
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; andf today I read hungary too
04:11 schestowitz[TR]; orban has an issue with it too,m he's aligned with us ghop

04:13 schestowitz[TR]; I agree
04:13 schestowitz[TR]; that's why I posted an image and moved on
04:13 schestowitz[TR]; the trolling teneds to start when we debate DRM and such..
04:13 schestowitz[TR]; and not by coincidence
04:13 schestowitz[TR]; interjection of disruptive things

04:21 schestowitz[TR]; but it seems to be defunct already
04:21 schestowitz[TR]; it lost many members about a decade ago
04:21 schestowitz[TR]; EFF does not need mmembers
04:21 schestowitz[TR]; it gets big funding from Big Business and oligarchs such as Mark Cuban
04:21 schestowitz[TR]; so they are effectively running the EFF's mission
04:21 schestowitz[TR]; and the EFF's origin purpose into the ground
04:21 schestowitz[TR]; for their pet projects
04:22 schestowitz[TR]; FSF has hardly said anything courageous this year
04:22 schestowitz[TR]; it tries hard not to seem "controversial"
04:22 schestowitz[TR]; while SFC took a lead in doing corporations' bidding
04:22 schestowitz[TR]; like IBM at the moment
04:22 schestowitz[TR]; they know the money isn't in activism
04:22 schestowitz[TR]; so they defect
04:23 schestowitz[TR]; and work against us while using tokens and sound bites to make it sound like they don't gaslight us
04:23 schestowitz[TR]; a very sad situation
04:23 schestowitz[TR]; http://techrights.org/wiki/Linux_Foundation#October_2022
04:23 schestowitz[TR]; meanwhile, Him Zemlin's wife is wanted for FRAUD
04:23 schestowitz[TR]; and nobody in the media will point this out
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; She left that job over a month ago,
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; quietly...
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; class action over securities fraud
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; she was playing a huge part in this as CRO
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; hours ago I met my friend since 2008
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; and he lost ALL hiuis money
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; AND house
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; to a scam like hers
04:24 schestowitz[TR]; Bakkt
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; She and her husband are basically phonies ans scammers
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; pretending to be things they are not
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; and bagging all the money
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; based on lies
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; and leaving people financially ruined
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; and projects in disarray
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; inc. many GNU/Linux projects
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; because GAFAM pays LF to basically extinguish the community stuff
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; and promote the corporate stuff
04:25 schestowitz[TR]; using openwashing programmes
04:26 schestowitz[TR]; so you point this out

04:31 schestowitz[TR]; there will be faster mutation is it spreads this wide
04:31 schestowitz[TR]; and so we play with moving targets/goalposts
04:31 schestowitz[TR]; the vaccines struggle to keep up with variants
04:31 schestowitz[TR]; not good
04:31 schestowitz[TR]; now they have multiple versions of the vaccines
04:32 schestowitz[TR]; so you are not even boosting but are given different 'flavours'
04:32 schestowitz[TR]; because they don't try to curb the spread
04:32 schestowitz[TR]; Biden, COVID is over
04:32 schestowitz[TR]; at least scientists werre fast to scold him for this claim
04:32 schestowitz[TR]; even some GOPers opportunistically spoke out
04:33 schestowitz[TR]; and so many orgs reopen events
04:33 schestowitz[TR]; akademy this weekend
04:33 schestowitz[TR]; and I read that afterwards they get many reports of mass infections
04:33 schestowitz[TR]; met a friend yesterday who got infested... yesterday
04:33 schestowitz[TR]; after several doses he still found it hard to cope
04:33 schestowitz[TR]; almost admitted to hospital
04:33 schestowitz[TR]; related to techrights: let people work from home
04:34 schestowitz[TR]; they uise a lie that it's over
04:34 schestowitz[TR]; to drag people back into officer
04:34 schestowitz[TR]; or lose their job
04:34 schestowitz[TR]; which never really truly required coming to the office

06:33 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: yes, it does
06:34 schestowitz[TR]; librewolf still PRETENDS to be Firefox on WINDOWS
06:34 schestowitz[TR]; even when you use it on gnu/linux
06:34 schestowitz[TR]; then sites lowball gnu/linux usage
06:34 schestowitz[TR]; because apparently some sites now try to detect "non-Windows" OS
06:35 schestowitz[TR]; for some extra distrrimination
06:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], That's because of anti-fingerprinting.
06:36 DaemonFC; The Tor Browser patch that identifies as Firefox ESR on Windows 10 is in LibreWolf.
06:36 schestowitz[TR]; oh, i see
06:36 schestowitz[TR]; I didn't think of it from that pov
06:37 DaemonFC; Besides, if it identifies as a Windows browser, mjg59_ will fight for its right to redefine reality.
06:37 DaemonFC; So who's to say it's wrong? Certainly not me.
06:37 schestowitz[TR]; sad state of affairs onwww
06:37 schestowitz[TR]; you nee tro PRETEND to run MALWARe
06:37 schestowitz[TR]; to be tolerated by sites
06:37 schestowitz[TR]; they trust people who run malware
06:37 schestowitz[TR]; but not people who do NOT run malware
06:37 schestowitz[TR]; that includes some BANKS
06:37 DaemonFC; Well, like 64% of desktop users are on Windows and most on Windows 10.
06:38 DaemonFC; So you make yourself less unique if you lie and say Firefox on Windows 10.
06:38 schestowitz[TR]; imagine a bank's site saying,
06:38 DaemonFC; But by the same logic, why not Chrome on Windows 10?
06:38 schestowitz[TR]; "error, your system is too secure to perform transctions online"
06:38 schestowitz[TR]; please install malware and try again"
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; why not chrome?
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; because firefox is small too
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; and then sites mess it up
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; and tailor "wroing" pages for it
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; or say "upgrade to chorme"
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; I thought it was not about anonymity]
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; but access to sites that sniff UA
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; in old firefox in like 2005 I had an agent changer
06:39 schestowitz[TR]; as extension
06:40 schestowitz[TR]; so it was handy when back then the web was very hostile to many browsers
06:40 schestowitz[TR]; and sniffed UA like mad
06:40 schestowitz[TR]; of course firefox does not have many useful extsnsions anymore
06:40 schestowitz[TR]; the chef Baker is ruining it
06:40 DaemonFC; I put in UA hacks into SeaMonkey if that's all it takes to get some version of the site that works.
06:40 schestowitz[TR]; for ';unified' experience
06:40 schestowitz[TR]; with SOCIAL MEDIA in your new tab (pocket )
06:40 DaemonFC; Sites that sniff your UA and break themselves don't deserve a real UA.
06:41 schestowitz[TR]; in gemini the sniffing is barely possible
06:41 schestowitz[TR]; but IO think therer would be hacks
06:41 schestowitz[TR]; toi figure out what you use

07:21 schestowitz[TR]; he speaks out to derail or change subject
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; we spoke about EFF
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; and fake security
07:21 schestowitz[TR]; like attacks on PGP
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; on proper security
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; that's what the "toad" distrtacts from atm
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; btw, we did mention peter many times
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; for years
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; once can see his name a lot in Ttechrights
07:22 phanes; i don't think it's any secret to any community he engages in that matt is the imposter many of them sometimes feel they are
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; so it's just a straw man distrction
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; strife, vulgarities
07:22 schestowitz[TR]; EFF is not for security

07:25 schestowitz[TR]; this is not good
07:25 schestowitz[TR]; an the new guy from the CIA has little expereience
07:25 schestowitz[TR]; and no creds

07:25 schestowitz[TR]; he's like an EPO 'manager'
07:25 phanes; like it's just not an option for guys like matt
07:25 phanes; and people know it
07:25 schestowitz[TR]; basicially a friend or spouse of other managers
07:25 schestowitz[TR]; \those trolls use github
07:25 phanes; so the mass perception is not what he wants it to be
07:25 schestowitz[TR]; for their "commits"
07:25 schestowitz[TR]; cause they don't know how to use git
07:25 schestowitz[TR]; and they do their RMS DEFAMATION letter in github
07:26 schestowitz[TR]; with Microsoft TypeScript
07:26 schestowitz[TR]; security chief of GitHub?
07:26 schestowitz[TR]; you guess it: 20-year NSA vetarana

07:26 schestowitz[TR]; ]
07:26 schestowitz[TR]; when the NSA person is heading NPM and GGithub
07:26 schestowitz[TR]; with "defence" budget through Microsoft
07:27 phanes; what i mean is, if you know matt's survival depends on him not being able to grow into your expectations, then all there is is perpetual conflict while he fights to survive in his illusory life and you thrash against his campaigns
07:27 phanes; it's like telling someone to "stop breathing"
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; it's the same with gravelewy
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; in a nutshell
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; (this is part of ongoing series)
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; (more to publish till n ext year)
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; he was a fraud

07:27 schestowitz[TR]; left high schooll
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; did not finish
07:27 schestowitz[TR]; wrote an absolutely shitty app

07:28 schestowitz[TR]; any kid can do it
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; with basic programming skills
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; people who saw his code and I spoke to said it was crap core
07:28 schestowitz[TR]; so then he started plagiarising

07:28 schestowitz[TR]; and people who hired him quickly causht onn

07:29 schestowitz[TR]; like graveley
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; anyway, they're not coders
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; they are POSERs
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; the failed biologist too is one
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; he bashed our perl code

07:29 schestowitz[TR]; withiuit ANY specifics
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; he cannot even read perl codde
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; so he went, I saee puuurl!!
07:29 schestowitz[TR]; BAD
07:30 phanes; people who do shit like that have very big wounds that they acquired very early in life
07:30 schestowitz[TR]; and dind't even grasp the context in which it was used
07:30 schestowitz[TR]; it's not limtied to tech btw
07:30 phanes; no its not
07:30 schestowitz[TR]; yesterday I caaalled my dad a hobbyist
07:30 schestowitz[TR]; whih offended him
07:30 phanes; in all fairness you're a hobbyist to me
07:30 schestowitz[TR]; some people claim to know things they know nothing about it
07:30 schestowitz[TR]; they know nothing about it, so they start atacking people
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; and cause strife, conflict
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; over unrelated stufff
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; not the technical stuff
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; notice he didn't argue wqith Torvalds about technical things
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; or with RMS
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; they make up a p[hoyn narrative
07:31 phanes; sometimes strife and conflict is a good thing, what matters when it happens is "why"
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; where PRO-abortion is now "ableism"
07:31 phanes; that's one of those why's that makes it a bad thing (RMS)
07:31 schestowitz[TR]; debate or conflict can help come up with beteter solutions
07:32 schestowitz[TR]; but if it's on topic
07:32 schestowitz[TR]; now a little detour
07:32 schestowitz[TR]; to lala land
07:32 schestowitz[TR]; where being pro-abortion is misogynist and ableism
07:32 schestowitz[TR]; btw
07:32 schestowitz[TR]; I was thinking just hours ago, as I passed thoough some foss blogs that show macs
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; you know why many devs use gnu/lionux?
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; because they grasp freedom
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; sure, they could use a mac
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; never mind cost
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; but many don't
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; because they heard the pictch about controlling their machine
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; this is wny some people try to undermine fsf and eff, rms etc.
07:33 schestowitz[TR]; and even use eff as a weapon to help defame rms
07:34 schestowitz[TR]; it's about trying to dixcredit the mesage of computer users being in control

07:46 phanes; anyway, the way you deal with the celeb lynch components is by "future-jamming", they spend their whole lives sewing hate so they can handle the backlash, you have to know where they're going to shut them down
07:47 phanes; need to shut down the gas stations on all the exits on the way there
07:47 phanes; and then close the road
07:48 phanes; people like that don't have the resilience that the people they target have to learn to survive being targeted by them and people like them
07:49 phanes; so when it comes back on them by a determined force
07:49 phanes; they sputter out and thrash and run out of gas
07:50 phanes; it's easy to get caught up in "their model" that they want you to use
07:50 schestowitz[TR]; it's time-consuming
07:50 schestowitz[TR]; asa I said before:
07:50 schestowitz[TR]; time-wasting
07:50 schestowitz[TR]; and it typically starts when we are on a good topic
07:50 phanes; i.e. using this channel as a way to try to "trick" you into saying things he can twist around to make you look like something you're not
07:50 schestowitz[TR]; and then statements optimised to disrupt are uttered
07:50 phanes; or falling back on the number of twitter followers
07:50 schestowitz[TR]; and then we forgot the original topic
07:50 schestowitz[TR]; because we are busy putting out some fire
07:51 phanes; i have like 2 followers on twitter and got 10x the number of his followers to read his exposure
07:51 schestowitz[TR]; twitter is fake
07:51 phanes; his model is a false model
07:51 schestowitz[TR]; I know people there who bought a ton of fake followers
07:51 schestowitz[TR]; there are people who also sell "likes"
07:51 schestowitz[TR]; twitter does not mind

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; those are really bad NDAs
07:59 schestowitz[TR]; Microsost and DuckDuckGo did an NDA
07:59 phanes; when I say I will do something, I have to do it

08:02 schestowitz[TR]; NDA clusterf*ck
08:02 schestowitz[TR]; didn't work
08:02 schestowitz[TR]; the NDA only causes more supicion
08:02 phanes; I'm like 65% sure that the pedo ring scandals are foreign psyops meant to undermine both hollywood's ability to influence popular opinion during wartime in cinema and also the american tech community
08:02 schestowitz[TR]; that Lee or PIA got people to sigh NDA is not good
08:02 schestowitz[TR]; FSF asked board members not to speak about affairs
08:02 schestowitz[TR]; but no "proper" NDA
08:03 schestowitz[TR]; they use qanon as a straw man

22:30 DaemonFC; When you get your ballot and make it to the "judicial retention" section and vote to impeach the judges that have ever been a prosecutor...
22:31 DaemonFC; I'm splitting my ballot. Most of the offices I'm voting "Republican" on are in control of the state's financial accounts.
22:34 DaemonFC; I looked at the text of the Worker's Rights Amendment.
22:35 DaemonFC; It would seem that the US Supreme Court made it so that the police can't use it to overrule the police reforms of the SAFE-T Act.
22:36 DaemonFC; When the Supreme Court ruled that public employees can't be compelled to join a labor union or pay "fair share" fees if they opt out in Janus v. AFSCME, which was ironically an Illinois case, they concluded that public workers (which would include the police) can't be compelled to join a labor union.
22:36 DaemonFC; The text of the proposed amendment includes "Provides that no law shall be passed that interferes with, negates, or diminishes the right of employees to organize and bargain collectively over their wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment and work place safety, including any law or ordinance that prohibits the execution or application of agreements between employers and...
22:36 DaemonFC; ...labor organizations that represent employees requiring membership in an organization as a condition of employment.".
22:37 DaemonFC; But due to Janus, which the Republicans on the Supreme Court passed to screw public unions, they excluded the police from being required to join the police unions.
22:37 DaemonFC; Which means the Workers Rights Amendment only applies to private unions.
22:38 DaemonFC; "labor organizations that represent employees requiring membership in an organization as a condition of employment" means that the amendment can't apply to the police.
