01:15 schestowitz-TR; bnchs__: theory of mine
01:15 schestowitz-TR; there is a factual part
01:15 schestowitz-TR; and hypothetical part
01:15 schestowitz-TR; factual part: US military cushions the tech monopolies
01:15 schestowitz-TR; for strategic purposes of hegemony, globalism, dare I say "imperialism"
01:15 bnchs__; i like how the PDF editor list suggests 3 proprietary software and 2 free software
01:15 schestowitz-TR; the hypothetical part:
01:16 schestowitz-TR; they want every sharing of file to go over conduits that let the US spy
01:16 schestowitz-TR; so file sharing over USB drives etc. is "no-no"
01:16 schestowitz-TR; that's "piracy"
01:16 bnchs__; yes
01:16 schestowitz-TR; of course you could copy 100,000 music file to a friend
01:16 schestowitz-TR; and they would never know
01:16 schestowitz-TR; Apple took this to a new level
01:16 bnchs__; they can't spy in your USB cables
01:16 schestowitz-TR; the files on "your" phones need to be scanned
01:17 activelow; bnchs__: they can
01:17 bnchs__; well in kernel-level
01:17 schestowitz-TR; the "let us be sure you're not molesting kid" excuse
01:17 bnchs__; of proprietary OSes
01:17 schestowitz-TR; in recent USB, the cable itself is a computer
01:17 schestowitz-TR; so I was told
01:18 activelow; most modern USB (any later than 1.x), in particular USB3, are heavily tapped with firmware, just saying.

10:01 leah; we will see it during lp2022, if that is the case
10:01 leah; their followers will too
10:01 leah; we need to be ready for that
10:01 leah; to replace it, with something better
10:01 leah; this is something i've been discussing at length, but nothing is off the ground yet
10:02 leah; i honestly don't think the fsf will survive past 2022
10:02 leah; what will remain will be current infrastructure, maintained by a skeletal crew
10:02 leah; i think gnu still has teeth
10:02 leah; info-gnu reports that gnu is in a healthy state of development. projects still get worked on
10:02 leah; and honestly, that's what matters
10:02 leah; what fsf has is "thought leadership", but that leadership is dwindling, due to events over the years
10:03 leah; and you can think one way or the other, but at the end of the day, that's just how it is
10:03 leah; i do see a power vacuum forming
10:03 leah; schestowitz: look at USSR. USSR still seemed strong and stable to the world, until it one day announced its own end, on 1991-12-25
10:03 leah; and i predict something similar will happen with fsf. probably this year
10:04 leah; but we won't know until during and after lp2022, what the true state of the fsf is
10:04 leah; libreplanet is when the fsf is exposed
10:04 leah; i'm waiting to see what happens during lp2022 before i make any of my own moves

11:10 schestowitz; leah: proposition:
11:10 schestowitz; what if I told you there could be an element of sour grapes?
11:10 schestowitz; you wanted to take johns role
11:10 schestowitz; did not get it
11:10 schestowitz; and now you want the whole thing to crash?
11:11 schestowitz; fsf did lose 5-6 people this past year
11:11 schestowitz; however, I see pluses too
11:11 schestowitz; the remaining base is more attune to the original mission, imho
11:14 leah; nah
11:14 leah; it's not like that at all
11:14 schestowitz-TR; how do you see fsf endgame coming about?
11:14 leah; this isn't personal
11:14 schestowitz-TR; I'm not seeing it
11:15 schestowitz-TR; I spoke to RMS this past week
11:15 leah; schestowitz-TR: the fsf will continue, but in a diminished state
11:15 leah; that's the collapse
11:15 schestowitz-TR; that's not new
11:15 schestowitz-TR; they were weakened for like a decade
11:15 leah; yes, but it accelerated in the last year
11:15 schestowitz-TR; and maybe more so in the past 2-3 year
11:15 schestowitz-TR; *years
11:15 schestowitz-TR; when Moglen left that's one example
11:15 leah; i think freedom can become the default
11:16 leah; and the fsf isn't fit to seize that opportunity, because it's too small
11:16 schestowitz-TR; we're not there
11:16 leah; we need a larger organisation
11:16 leah; that's why ariadne and i have been discussing a federated organisation
11:16 schestowitz-TR; freedom is not the default
11:16 schestowitz-TR; they also tried to make github the "default", but thus far failed
11:16 leah; i already told you about fedfree
11:16 leah; so you know the plan
11:16 schestowitz-TR; as many people scattered away
11:17 schestowitz-TR; we already proposed it years ago
11:17 leah; the movement is actually doing well. that is my view
11:17 leah; but the movement is too big for the fsf to handle
11:17 schestowitz; v
11:17 schestowitz; http://techrights.org/wiki/Free_Software_Federation
11:17 TR Bot; Free Software Federation - Techrights
11:17 leah; and the fsf's message is pure
11:17 leah; but the fsf is underprepared
11:17 leah; we need a strong voice to lead the new movement
11:17 leah; and the new movement already exists for years
11:17 leah; but it has been gobbled up by "open source"
11:18 schestowitz-TR; it's a mishmash
11:18 leah; that's what i want to seize
11:18 schestowitz-TR; like,
11:18 schestowitz-TR; right to repair
11:18 Ariadne; for the record, my opinions are different than what leah is saying
11:18 schestowitz-TR; creative commons
11:18 leah; and i think it can be done
11:18 leah; Ariadne: our differences are good, btw
11:18 leah; our differences compliment each other
11:18 Ariadne; i for one do not really care about the FSF, it can exist or not
11:18 schestowitz-TR; *complement
11:18 leah; i never know which is which lol. compliment or complement
11:19 Ariadne; what i care about is freedom of code
11:19 schestowitz-TR; in the ireland of england anything goes
11:19 leah; i suck at actual organisation but i'm good at rallying the troops
11:19 leah; and setting a clear agenda
11:19 leah; but similar can be said about others
11:19 schestowitz-TR; fsf became a little slow
11:19 schestowitz-TR; and low-output imho
11:19 Ariadne; but is it leah rowe's agenda, or is it the agenda that everyone wants
11:19 leah; schestowitz-TR: the fsf is ok for the movement that existed in the 90s
11:19 leah; schestowitz-TR: but the movement grew
11:19 schestowitz-TR; true
11:19 leah; and the fsf stayed the same, trying to control everything and ignored the changing times
11:20 schestowitz-TR; not entirely true
11:20 Ariadne; what i propose is something more cellular
11:20 leah; schestowitz-TR: and what i think we can do is to re-gain control of that enlarged movement
11:20 schestowitz-TR; the site is a bit old in its messaging in place
11:20 leah; schestowitz-TR: but we do it in a decentralized fashion
11:20 schestowitz-TR; this is normal for older orgs
11:20 Ariadne; anyway, i have work to do
11:20 schestowitz-TR; they stay consistent with older messages
11:20 *techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
11:20 schestowitz-TR; Ariadne: 0/ laters
11:21 leah; Ariadne: i'm not going to lie, i do have an agenda. but i'm not going to let that override everything else
11:21 leah; that's why we need to start a public discussion. and that starts as soon as fedfree launches
11:21 schestowitz-TR; some people in fsf embraced social control media
11:21 schestowitz-TR; "mobile" site etc.
11:21 leah; but there's no point announcing anything until libreplanet
11:21 schestowitz-TR; I think this is not so great
11:21 leah; libreplanet is our window of opportunity to get the word out
11:21 schestowitz-TR; we try to convince them to branch off in geminispace more
11:21 Ariadne; 'our'
11:21 leah; because that's when the world is watching the "freedom" movement
11:21 schestowitz-TR; and made a case for it
11:22 schestowitz-TR; counterculture does not come about by embracing the status quo
11:23 schestowitz-TR; so the idea fsf will change the world with a JavaScript-only Twitter account does not jibe well
11:23 schestowitz-TR; it tells followers of the movements it's "OK" to be controlled by the scummy people who run that propaganda shebang
11:23 schestowitz-TR; and then they might join
11:23 schestowitz-TR; coz fsf does
11:24 schestowitz-TR; and get all that noise and bs and lies
11:24 schestowitz-TR; Facebook "lite"
11:24 schestowitz-TR; FSF and openbsd cannot get much "fresh blood" because of the messed up "education" system
11:25 schestowitz-TR; wnd the likes of Bezos and Micros~1 turning schools into laughing stocks
11:25 schestowitz-TR; so you end up with no potent 'hackers' (coders)
11:25 schestowitz-TR; raspi can change that
11:25 schestowitz-TR; but not fast enough
11:25 schestowitz-TR; you end up with kids who can name "apps"
11:25 schestowitz-TR; but cannot code solutions to things
11:25 Ariadne; i have mixed feelings
11:25 schestowitz-TR; or manage a device
11:25 schestowitz-TR; and later you get billions of devices with open ports and "goodmorning" as password
11:26 Ariadne; marketing freedom of code/repair/etc messaging to normal people makes sense
11:26 schestowitz-TR; it does
11:26 schestowitz-TR; but going to twitter won't work
11:26 schestowitz-TR; twitter is biased against freedom
11:26 schestowitz-TR; and it's like going to a gay parade looking to recruit troops
11:26 schestowitz-TR; so the fsf needs to approach the hacker-curious
11:27 schestowitz-TR; in spaces like gemini://
11:27 schestowitz-TR; not "trending hashtags"
11:27 Ariadne; twitter can be helpful for making spaces, namely i use twitter to promote my blog

11:28 TR Bot; Democracies die when the truth becomes whatever you want it to be
11:28 schestowitz-TR; Ariadne: twitter gives an illusion of traffic
11:28 schestowitz-TR; it sends many bots

11:28 Ariadne; schestowitz-TR: i have multiple channels
11:29 schestowitz-TR; the actual click rate is not as high as they want people to believe
11:29 schestowitz-TR; facebook does the same thing
11:29 schestowitz-TR; so people over-value the contribution of such "platforms"
11:29 schestowitz-TR; Ariadne: yes, I use diaspora
11:29 schestowitz-TR; that sends out a copy to nitter
11:30 schestowitz-TR; fediverse is another over-valued thing
11:30 schestowitz-TR; sites want a get-rich-fast scheme
11:30 schestowitz-TR; instead of building a base around rss feeds etc.
11:30 schestowitz-TR; some outsourced to gulag feedburner

11:38 schestowitz-TR; she uses landline of course
11:38 DaemonFC; Many people got their account emptied out, and since Uphold isn't FDIC insured, they don't have to replace any of the money, even if it was $20,000.

11:41 DaemonFC; I said one of the side effects is missing your period. :/
11:41 DaemonFC; Nobody in the medical community is willing to admit that there are bizarre and potentially very serious side effects.
11:42 schestowitz-TR; some talk about it
11:42 DaemonFC; And Stallman gaslights people too.
11:42 schestowitz-TR; but the media will reject the story
11:42 schestowitz-TR; because "emnergency" something...

11:43 schestowitz-TR; the vast majority of them are vaccinated
11:43 DaemonFC; The vaccine seems to cause many of the same problems as the disease, without preventing the disease.
11:43 schestowitz-TR; and this isn't about wings
11:43 schestowitz-TR; but even some of the media I trust, lead-leaning, participates in the smearing
11:44 DaemonFC; It's a vaccine to something that's not even out there anymore.

11:45 schestowitz-TR; level four: I suppose people who get vaccinated, but don't threaten me or force me
11:46 schestowitz-TR; I'm in four

11:47 DaemonFC; Even the very worst cases get a ventilator for a few weeks with COVID.
11:47 schestowitz-TR; maybe over 5 years

11:47 DaemonFC; THen the case is resolved one way or the other.
11:47 schestowitz-TR; and NO PATENTS
11:47 DaemonFC; But very few die, and almost all are over 80.
11:48 schestowitz-TR; so no ripoff like $40 a "dose"
11:48 schestowitz-TR; maybe a cent or two (in those times)

11:48 schestowitz-TR; the nurse time SHOULD cost more than the "juice"
11:48 DaemonFC; It costs about as much for the pharmacy tech to give it to you as the vaccine itself.
11:49 schestowitz-TR; don't think so
11:49 schestowitz-TR; I did the maths
11:49 schestowitz-TR; nurse salary (hourly)
11:49 schestowitz-TR; and how many they can 'jab per hour'
11:49 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, It cost me $250 for a nurse to give me Penicillin shots, and $1,300 for Penicillin.
11:50 DaemonFC; If they have to administer a drug in a doctor's office, watch out.
11:50 schestowitz-TR; the cost of that lousy, mass-produced crap is like 10 times the cost of a qualified and experienced/well-trained nurse
11:50 DaemonFC; I threw that in the bankruptcy anyway.

12:00 schestowitz; In September 2021, Minaj announced she would not be attending the 2021 Met Gala due to the COVID-19 vaccine requirement. She stated that she has avoided public appearances and traveling after contracting the virus herself and having to quarantine from her son as a result.[431][432][433] Minaj shared several tweets about her unvaccinated status and claimed she wanted to do more research and be comfortable with her decision first.[434] She alleged in
12:00 schestowitz; a Tweet that her cousin's friend in Trinidad suffered swollen testicles and became impotent as a result of the vaccine.[435] These tweets received backlash where her story about her cousin's friend became the subject of jokes and memes.[436] Trinidad and Tobago health minister Terrence Deyalsingh declared that Minaj's claims were false and that no such report existed.[437]
12:00 schestowitz; Shortly after, Minaj recommended other people get the vaccine and set up a Twitter poll on COVID-19 vaccine brands. She tweeted that she was sure she would get vaccinated herself because of touring.[438][439] The White House offered Minaj a phone call with a doctor to answer questions about the safety of the vaccine.[440] In an Instagram Live response two days later, she claimed that she was "simply asking questions" and she did not "give any facts"
12:00 schestowitz; about the vaccine.[441] Reporters allegedly harassed Minaj's family for a story, with Minaj sharing some text messages she alleged were harassment on social media

12:03 schestowitz; "In 2004, the South Korean translator and Christian missionary Kim Sun-il was kidnapped and beheaded in Iraq after the South Korean government refused to reconsider sending its armed forces to support the Iraq War. Although initial protests were only directed towards the South Korean government and towards extremists in Iraq, anti-U.S. military protesters decided to seize the moment to trigger a much larger wave of anti-Americanism. During a
12:03 schestowitz; concert, Psy admonished the Iraqi kidnappers, condemned South Korea's former president Roh Moo-hyun, and also sang along to lyrics of the song "Dear American" by South Korean rock band N.EX.T, which criticizes the United States military for its actions in the Iraq war.[150] An initial translation of the lyrics was posted by an iReporter onto CNN's iReport site.[151] Some of the lyrics, referring to the guards who tortured Iraqi prisoners, were
12:03 schestowitz; translated by CNN as follows: "Kill those fucking Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives and those who ordered them to torture" and "Kill [the Yankees'] daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law and fathers / Kill them all slowly and painfully."[151][152]"
12:04 schestowitz; he referred specifically to USians

12:15 DaemonFC; Yet it costs over two trillion dollars a year to fund all of these programs at this point.
12:16 DaemonFC; Most of the reason it barely makes a dent yet costs so much is because people deliberately stay poor to qualify for programs.

12:56 DaemonFC; So my general thinking this year is Republican governor and secretary of state, keep the Democrats in the comptroller and attorney general's office so they can sabotage the governor's budget priorities and sue the governor to overturn his regulations, and tie up the state Supreme Court, and in the mean time, the General Assembly slows way down and can't pass half as much legislation as usual.
12:58 DaemonFC; That's the ideal situation we're looking at, because unfettered control of the government by a single party just lets them pass whatever bad ideas that party has at the moment, and then just try undoing any of it later.

13:07 DaemonFC; One of them involves how much authority Congress can actually delegate to federal agencies via the rulemaking process.

13:27 DaemonFC; Disgusting
13:28 DaemonFC; You know, there's more white people without ANY broadband choices.
13:29 DaemonFC; Because most people who live in big cities won't live in rural areas because there's few "public services". People are generally expected to support themselves and what there is out there is a hand up, not a hand out.
13:29 DaemonFC; Like, they'll help you pay rent for a few weeks if you lose your job and need some help while you're on unemployment.
13:30 DaemonFC; But it won't be public housing where people live in generational poverty drinking themselves to death and shooting at the neighbors.
13:30 DaemonFC; They'll point you to the staffing agency, and you need to get yourself a job making brake pads or something.
13:31 DaemonFC; Crime is dealt with, harshly, which is why it's safe to go walking at 3 AM with $4,000 in your wallet.

13:34 DaemonFC; The only thing you get in Chicagoland is mugged.
13:34 DaemonFC; First by the muggers, and then by the Democrats, who take some off the top, and then give the rest to the muggers in welfare and programs to treat the STDs they pass back and forth.

20:12 bnchs; they already did back in 2012
20:12 bnchs; will they do it again?
20:12 psydroid2; I hope so
20:13 bnchs; microsoft's attempts at ARM has always failed, because their devices came with a locked bootloader
20:13 psydroid2; Microsoft joins the Windows on ARM project by flogging the dead horse over and over
20:14 psydroid2; no one is compiling software for Windows on ARM, because they don't have any development tools for Windows on ARM
20:14 psydroid2; it's a joke
20:15 bnchs; they need cross-compilers
20:15 MinceR; originally MICROS~1 was going to require for the windows logo certification to have Restricted Boot impossible to disable on devices
20:15 MinceR; then, as a result of backlash, they reversed this, but only on x86
20:15 MinceR; afaik they still require ARM devices that have the Backdoors logo to be locked down
20:16 MinceR; and then they tried to spin this, of course
20:16 MinceR; as if they weren't trying to screw everyone who buys a PC
20:16 psydroid2; Windows on ARM devices have been a colossal failure, because no one is interested in a second-rate Vista experience

20:42 psydroid2; so after ARM RISC-V should become usable on the desktop
20:43 MinceR; what's the next arch after intel eats RISC-V?
20:43 psydroid2; and then Microsoft will be spread even thinner trying to support all kinds of proprietary crapware on multiple architectures
20:43 psydroid2; OpenPOWER?
20:43 bnchs; m68k
20:43 psydroid2; j-core
20:43 psydroid2; gotta have them all
20:43 bnchs; gotta catch them all
20:43 psydroid2; oh right
20:44 bnchs; look at how many archs i can control
20:45 psydroid2; it won't go anywhere
20:45 psydroid2; they'll just keep pushing WSL as a fake version of the real thing
20:45 bnchs; yes
20:45 psydroid2; they'll always have to emphasise one architecture over another
20:45 bnchs; have the worst of both worlds
20:46 bnchs; i don't know how you can unironically use WSL (its in microsoft store)
20:46 psydroid2; or their "customers" (more like hostages) will be confused
20:47 bnchs; https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/

20:47 TR Bot; Windows Subsystem for Linux Documentation | Microsoft Docs
20:47 psydroid2; I've only seen some images and videos of WSL
20:47 bnchs; they said GNU/linux in the documentation
20:47 bnchs; microsoft said GNU/Linux in the page
20:47 bnchs; or it's actually just a wiki collab
20:48 psydroid2; it looks like official documentation
20:48 psydroid2; those people most likely work at Microsoft
20:49 bnchs; if it is, then i didn't expect them to say GNU/Linux
20:50 psydroid2; I guess they don't need to pretend in technical documentation that few normal users will ever read
20:52 bnchs; the only thing thats stopping from windows becoming it's worst is how easy it is to install another OS
20:53 bnchs; once they lock down the bootloader, then it will start becoming like android smartphones
20:53 bnchs; preinstall a bunch of apps (the developer paid microsoft) and make them so you can't uninstall them
20:54 SomeH4x0r; isn't Android thing also about custom firmware everywhere?
20:54 SomeH4x0r; so you need device-specific ROM and you can't support everything at once
20:54 bnchs; yes
20:54 bnchs; there will also be custom ROMs
20:55 psydroid2; the difference is that Microsoft will never be able to control the whole ARM or RISC-V or other architecture environment
20:55 psydroid2; like they do with x86 now
20:56 psydroid2; by strongarming OEMs
20:56 bnchs; they will
20:56 bnchs; they will pay some OEMs
20:56 psydroid2; but not all of them
20:56 psydroid2; we will be able to get the hardware we want
20:56 bnchs; they'll give them a cut of the profits
20:57 psydroid2; then we will look for other OEMs
20:57 bnchs; in exchange they preload their devices with windows and lock the bootloader
20:57 psydroid2; but I don't think it will ever happen
20:58 psydroid2; Windows/x86 will be abandoned in favour of Linux/non-x86 like Solaris/SPARC was abandoned in favour of Linux/x86
20:58 psydroid2; we'll see
20:58 SomeH4x0r; some evil GNU/Linux distribution with a signed bootloader. OK.
20:58 bnchs; modern laptops don't even show you the BIOS screen
20:58 bnchs; they skip directly to windows
20:59 psydroid2; my newest x86 machines are from 2016/7
20:59 bnchs; you have to press the right keys at the right time to access the BIOS setup (and this took about 6 attempts for me)
20:59 SomeH4x0r; just like they can deny root on Android, they can make something like this on GNU/Linux
21:00 bnchs; yes
21:00 SomeH4x0r; a good tool can still be used for evil intentions
21:00 bnchs; they can restrict access to root
21:01 psydroid2; dark times will come when you can't buy any hardware without such restrictions
21:01 bnchs; what about the old hardware
21:01 psydroid2; but we could still design and build our own, if there are no laws that explicitly forbid it
21:02 bnchs; or study the ways and make your own
21:02 psydroid2; there will always be plenty of hardware people will be able to buy and use
21:02 bnchs; they'll probably add a "feature" to the CPU that will shut down the CPU if it finds a microsoft-unapproved instruction
21:02 bnchs; and microsoft has the compiler to it
21:03 psydroid2; but teaching people how to design hardware themselves is most important
21:03 psydroid2; will Microsoft control all hardware of all OEMs?
21:03 psydroid2; OEMs would have to be really gullible and stupid to allow such a thing to happen
21:04 psydroid2; some OEMs can be stupid some of the time, but not all of the OEMs can be stupid all of the time
21:04 psydroid2; that would be the end of computing (freedom) as we know it
21:05 bnchs; what would you do if you had a time machine
21:06 psydroid2; change the educational system and teach people the real fundamentals of computing
21:07 psydroid2; and not some watered down version of that
21:07 bnchs; i'm pretty sure that won't happen if microsoft pays them
21:07 bnchs; best solution is to get to the root of the problem
21:07 SomeH4x0r; I have little hope in humans
21:07 SomeH4x0r; it's all fucked up imho
21:07 bnchs; convince bill gate's parents to abort their unborn son
21:08 psydroid2; haha
21:08 MinceR; you could just do the job yourself
21:08 psydroid2; but who says there wouldn't be another bill gates that is even more evil?
21:08 MinceR; though there are other people you also need to take out, and it would be a very long list
21:08 MinceR; maybe it would be better to just prevent humans from evolving at all
21:09 bnchs; it could be a evil version of bill gates
21:09 MinceR; lol
21:09 MinceR; that's bill gates
21:09 bnchs; i mean like a evil version of bill gates, that's actually nice and has a beard
