02:10 Sompi; ZedHedTed: A closed sourse program cannot prove that it is really private. The only way to prove it is to release the source code to the public and let people study it, but they are not going to do that

02:12 DaemonFC3; That discord?
02:13 Sompi; ZedHedTed: At least they publicly admit that they collect "metadata". And of course because the client program has an automatic updater, it is trivial for WhatsApp to install an "update" that removes the privacy completely and starts collecting all data

02:13 MinceR; that one, yes
02:13 ZedHedTed; MinceR: oh discord. i see. i need to get my head out of the gutter.
02:13 MinceR; also the one that phones home about what processes you're running
02:13 MinceR; "private".
02:14 Sompi; And also there is absolutely nothing private about SMS. It is not end-to-end encrypted, the phone company can see the messages
02:14 MinceR; also the one that bans people for using 3rd-party clients

02:15 MinceR; E2SITM (End-To-Somewhere-In-The-Middle)
02:15 DaemonFC3; The thing is they call randomly and ban if you don't answer if they do.
02:16 Sompi; Shitcord also empties the phone battery very fast while simultaneously claiming to save battery compared to IRC because IRC has the TCP socket always open...
02:16 ZedHedTed; ironically, it trusts IP addresses from AT&T mobile less than IP addresses from expressvpn
02:16 DaemonFC3; If they haven't bothered you it means they track you somehow.
02:16 DaemonFC3; Maybe you're leaking your real IP address.
02:17 DaemonFC3; I'd do an extended DNS leak test and check what is my IP address to see if you have ipv6 leaking.
02:17 ZedHedTed; shit i think i am. i had it running on a laptop through the clearnet and a desktop via VPN earlier.
02:17 Sompi; I tested termux+irssi and it stayed online three days without charging the battery. Discord empties the battery in hours while in background.
02:17 DaemonFC3; Yeah, they know who you are.
02:18 Sompi; But modern phone operating systems go great lengths to make it as hard as possible to use open protocols like IRC
02:19 ZedHedTed; they're not really part of my threat model anyway. if they were, i'd use them exclusively when the VPN is active.

04:10 DaemonFC; Finally, that's over.
04:11 DaemonFC; Of course Mandy is pissed that I sat on the couch and didn't eat food with them and then went to Taco Bell.
04:11 DaemonFC; Mandy cooked something this morning to take with him to that party that was so offensive that it made it difficult for me to sleep.
04:12 schestowitz; oh, the party
04:12 schestowitz; DaemonFC: two videos for you:
04:12 DaemonFC; My Aunt had this tenant in her apartment building when I was like 7, who never took a shower. His entire apartment smelled like armpits that hadn't been washed in two years.

04:13 schestowitz; food recooks from the trash
04:13 schestowitz; literally
04:15 DaemonFC; Yeah.
04:15 DaemonFC; Heard of it.
04:15 *DaemonFC gives voice to jacobk
04:15 schestowitz; look it up in invidious
04:15 DaemonFC; Then I got yelled at all the way home for not taking part in conversations, which were in a foreign language that I do not understand.
04:15 schestowitz; that still beats the hell out of eating your pet
04:16 DaemonFC; Then when I said maybe they could try speaking to me in English if they have something to say, Mandy said that was racist and made me a "White supremacist".
04:16 DaemonFC; For speaking English?
04:16 schestowitz; in USA
04:16 schestowitz; it's like,
04:16 schestowitz; you come as a guest to someone's home
04:16 schestowitz; then complain about the place
04:16 DaemonFC; Like 95% of the people here speak English primarily or at least as a second language.
04:16 schestowitz; "it's not so nice here"
04:17 DaemonFC; I told him to go to France and complain they speak French.
04:17 DaemonFC; Or Germany and complain that it's German.
04:17 DaemonFC; Or Mexico and complain it's Spanish.
04:17 DaemonFC; Maybe you run into someone who knows English if you're really lucky.
04:18 DaemonFC; Don't shit all over their country and expect they'll know your language when it's not useful to them where they live.
04:19 schestowitz; "white supremacy" BS is a thing
04:19 schestowitz; like "antivaxxer"
04:19 schestowitz; or "nazi"
04:19 schestowitz; overusing those terms does not help
04:19 DaemonFC; Yeah, if you suggest that they come to an English-speaking country and speak English, LOOK OUT!
04:19 DaemonFC; The English language is inherently racist.

04:20 DaemonFC; You know, most of the people being bombed every day by Nazis spoke English and didn't like Nazis very much.
04:20 DaemonFC; Don't let that get in the way!
04:20 DaemonFC; Everyone knows the German Nazis spoke English so the language is inherently tainted.
04:21 DaemonFC; Most non-English speakers have to fall back to English words, especially for technical things.
04:21 DaemonFC; Because there isn't a word in their language for it.
04:22 DaemonFC; If they don't know English but they're in a technical field, there will be an occasional English word in there because there's probably no other choice.
04:22 DaemonFC; I was reading this, like Japan is not a technologically illiterate place, by far.
04:22 DaemonFC; But...
04:22 DaemonFC; I was reading documentation one of them wrote on audio codecs.
04:23 DaemonFC; And out of possibly 1,000 words, 40-50 of them were English words before I translated the page.
04:23 DaemonFC; It's easier to borrow a word that exists than to sit around figuring out how to grunt and make noises until you settle on something and agree with everyone else what this new word of yours will be.
04:23 DaemonFC; English has loan words from all sorts of places too.

04:38 DaemonFC; Maybe his crap insurance will call and ask if he consulted GPT first.
04:38 schestowitz; BillPR, funded y Microsoft
04:38 schestowitz; any disclosure there?

04:39 DaemonFC; In the legal sense?
04:39 schestowitz; "may be more accurate"
04:39 schestowitz; maybe
04:39 schestowitz; maybe not
04:39 DaemonFC; Guess COVID's over.
04:39 schestowitz; this is not journalism

04:41 DaemonFC; schestowitz, "And the ongoing integration of AI into both Microsoft's Bing and Google Search suggests that Dr. Google is already well on its way to being replaced by Dr. Chatbot."
04:41 DaemonFC; NPR has really hit the shitter.
04:41 DaemonFC; I'll inform my doctor of the impending layoff.
04:42 DaemonFC; Dr. Chatbot can just prescribe me pills now.

05:04 schestowitz; than fukushima fish
05:04 DaemonFC; Mandy's friends got him Beats headphones.
05:04 DaemonFC; He probably told them I was too "cheap" to buy them for him.
05:05 DaemonFC; I just spend $800 keeping our cat alive.
05:05 DaemonFC; And I get to spend money on surgery for his ear and a new more advanced dental prosthetic so he doesn't have to walk around with some $40 piece of shit he wood glued back together.
05:05 DaemonFC; But yeah, let's make Ryan the villain yet again.

05:08 schestowitz; "i never fly, but the one time i flew it was first class"
05:08 schestowitz; "that makes me elite"
05:13 DaemonFC; I never saw a dog fly, I ain't never seen no house fly.
05:13 DaemonFC; But I just seen me a COKE FLY!
05:13 DaemonFC; And he was on Mastodon talking about the needles in his eye.
05:13 DaemonFC; B-)
05:13 schestowitz; idiot
05:13 schestowitz; giving away medical info
05:13 schestowitz; some "opsec" right there
05:14 schestowitz; calls himself sec guy
05:14 schestowitz; tells you he used to kill off memnbryos
05:14 schestowitz; embryos
05:14 DaemonFC; Extracting FLY OVARIES.
05:14 schestowitz; and gives medical info about himself
05:14 DaemonFC; Annexing the Sudetenland.
05:14 schestowitz; yes, whole ovaries
05:14 DaemonFC; Little things, Roy.
05:14 DaemonFC; One thing at a time.
05:14 schestowitz; and bragging that he has no running water
05:15 schestowitz; there was an anti-assange imposer of assange
05:15 schestowitz; saying noi need to bathe and shower
05:15 schestowitz; or soap
05:15 schestowitz; the BillBC picked that
05:15 schestowitz; pretended it was a real Assange account
05:16 schestowitz; you will almost never find me giving medical info online
05:16 schestowitz; there is not much to give either way
05:16 schestowitz; but people's privacy is a right
05:16 schestowitz; people abusing their own privacy is self harm
05:16 schestowitz; waiving their rightas
05:16 schestowitz; later the data is sold to insurance companies
05:16 schestowitz; so it can only ever be used against you
05:17 schestowitz; i have lots more i could say abiut mandy
05:17 schestowitz; but i spoke to you about it in a private channel
05:17 schestowitz; it rarely ends well
05:19 schestowitz; saddens me when people i care about have to put up with this

05:21 schestowitz; yesterday my sister labeled me "minimalist"
05:21 schestowitz; she meant that as a compliment
05:21 schestowitz; there is an awful variation
05:21 schestowitz; not stingly, but maximalist, where max means maxing up the debt
05:21 schestowitz; iow, faking it
05:22 schestowitz; and sacrificing oneself for the mere appearance of wealth
05:22 schestowitz; in the US it led to 50 trillion dollars in debt
05:22 schestowitz; that was only good for wall street
05:22 schestowitz; they kept hoarding money or capital that did not exist
05:22 schestowitz; except on papers
05:22 schestowitz; papers like mortgage contracts
05:24 schestowitz; and back to privacy:
05:24 schestowitz; people's medical privacy is a right here
05:24 schestowitz; they can enforce it by law
05:24 schestowitz; like sue those who violate it
05:24 schestowitz; but it they give it up themselves, they waive the right away
05:24 schestowitz; that right exists for a good reasons
05:24 schestowitz; cautionary tales aplenty
05:25 schestowitz; when gulagboy boasted about exceedingly low heart rate last year he thought it was a virtue
05:25 schestowitz; very low heart rates are not good
05:25 schestowitz; and can be a symptom of something
05:25 schestowitz; it causes some people to faint under some circumstance
05:26 schestowitz; deep divers who hold their breath for a long time can get very low BPM
05:26 schestowitz; like 30
05:26 schestowitz; i.e. one beat per 2 seconds
05:26 schestowitz; that can be good for diving
05:26 schestowitz; but lethal outside the water
05:26 schestowitz; i know someone it happened to
05:26 schestowitz; had to get a pacemaker fitted "in"
05:27 schestowitz; good resting BPM is about 660
05:27 schestowitz; too high or too low is not good
05:27 schestowitz; *60
05:27 schestowitz; max BPM is typically 220-your axe
05:27 schestowitz; so for age 40 you're good if you can reach 180
05:28 schestowitz; 3 bears per second
05:28 schestowitz; some athletes can do better

09:55 DaemonFC; schestowitz, They've modified XWayland recently to allow for desktop environments to use X to basically just use XWayland and not even be aware it's not a normal X server.
09:55 schestowitz; i see
09:56 schestowitz; rebrand as x corporation
09:56 DaemonFC; This may actually fix all the problems with Wayland. By not using any of it except, technically you are.
09:57 DaemonFC; But since everything running under that window manager can interact with everything else, screen sharing and remote desktop is back on the menu!
09:57 DaemonFC; schestowitz, This is clearly another concession to the people who refuse to port.
09:58 DaemonFC; And to the users who would scream if their preferred Desktop Environment was murdered by IBM.
10:00 schestowitz; yes, i know
10:00 schestowitz; but still
10:02 DaemonFC; schestowitz, You're not at all amused that they said they had to kill X11 only to have some minimal Wayland instance that runs everything under X11?
10:03 DaemonFC; I wonder how this will deal with XScreenSaver or screen locking.
10:04 DaemonFC; XScreenSaver does run under the Mac.
10:04 DaemonFC; Which has no X Server.
10:04 DaemonFC; Which shows that the Wayland people managed to make something even less functional than Quartz.

10:20 DaemonFC; "This mistake of the X11 architecture can never, ever be fixed. X11 is too old, too ossified, and has too many quagmire-trapped stakeholders to ever make any meaningful changes to it again. That's why people keep trying to replace X11 -- and failing, because it's too entrenched."
10:20 DaemonFC; "As always, these bugs are terrible because bad security is worse than no security. If you knew for a fact that your screen didn't lock, you would behave appropriately. Maybe you'd log out when you walked away. Maybe you wouldn't use that computer for certain things. But a security placebo makes you behave as if it's secure when in fact it is not."
10:21 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Windows is full of security placebos, and they've invaded the firmware too.
