00:00 DaemonFC; Fucking Goddamned Democrat prosecutor in San Francisco County made sure they can't even keep a Walgreens.
00:00 DaemonFC; Matt GULAG was eligible to vote in the election that put that guy in.
00:00 DaemonFC; Wonder who he voted for.
00:01 DaemonFC; Then they got a load of that shit and voted to recall Mr. Criminal Reforms.
00:01 DaemonFC; After it was already too late.
00:01 DaemonFC; After they also passed a ballot initiative to make $900 in shoplifting barely a crime.
00:01 DaemonFC; So you just hit up ten stores in a a row and make sure you only steal a little under $900 from each one, and they can't do much to you even if you get caught.
00:02 DaemonFC; California is a terrible place and they've lost over a million net residents in the last decade.
00:02 DaemonFC; The problem is that they're still idiots who didn't learn from bringing their own state down and making it unlivable, and they move into your neighborhood, bid everything up, and put California-style idiots in office where you are.
00:03 DaemonFC; And the only good thing about Illinois is that it's states on the West Coast and Texas getting the worst of that.
00:05 DaemonFC; MinceR, Inflation is getting so bad here that I'm purchasing cat food for next year right now as the rebates become available.
00:05 DaemonFC; I have a separate pile with 2024 dates on the bag.
00:05 DaemonFC; Avoiding 9% monthly inflation on cat food is now a better investment than savings bonds.
00:05 DaemonFC; :P
00:05 DaemonFC; Thanks Biden.
00:06 MinceR; must be nice to only have 9%
00:07 MinceR; i don't even know how much orbanistan has
00:07 MinceR; both sources that are generally used like to lie about inflation to try and make this train wreck look less bad
00:07 MinceR; and even so, the official figures are outrageously bad

04:43 DaemonFC; You can get into like 188 with UK and 187 with US (Belarus being the difference). But only 57 with a passport from the Philippines.

04:43 DaemonFC; So, visa.

04:48 DaemonFC; If you stay out of the large Democrat cities, it's Green or Yellow.
04:48 DaemonFC; If you go into the large Democrat cities, Orange to Red, depending on which part of the city.
04:49 DaemonFC; Approximately half of Chicago, I'd say red.
04:49 DaemonFC; The other half? Maybe half orange and half yellow.
04:49 DaemonFC; The worst crime tends to stay in areas and not spill over.

05:27 schestowitz[TR]; Executives at Strip District-based Aurora Innovation Inc., makers of autonomous vehicle (AV) technology, announced during the company's Q4 2022 earnings call on Wednesday that they don't foresee any reason to reduce headcount in the coming months as the firm remains bullish on shipping its self-driving trucking product Aurora Horizon by the end of 2024. But it's a decision that comes as the company continues to burn through

05:47 DaemonFC; It's legal for anyone to buy and wear body armor in Illinois, but if you commit a crime while wearing it, then there's also an offense for illegal use of body armor.

06:11 schestowitz[TR]; "we felt intimidated by his trousers"
06:11 DaemonFC; They want you to wear a jail jumpsuit and start thinking of yourself as a criminal.
06:11 schestowitz[TR]; "he threatens us with his jeans"
06:11 DaemonFC; They leave you sitting in there for hours wearing an orange jumpsuit.
06:12 DaemonFC; This is where they take criminals. Why would you be here if you're not a criminal?
06:12 DaemonFC; :)
06:12 DaemonFC; Then you start feeling guilty and it softens you up.
06:12 DaemonFC; The humiliation serves a purpose.
06:12 schestowitz[TR]; stay away from them
06:12 DaemonFC; They have to show you that you're a criminal so you'll confess.
06:12 schestowitz[TR]; record if possible
06:12 schestowitz[TR]; better if woman records
06:13 schestowitz[TR]; they get in more trouble for roughening up women
06:13 DaemonFC; They keep running you down.
06:13 DaemonFC; They write the story and then ask you to sign it after they talk to you.
06:14 DaemonFC; You shouldn't talk to them, and you definitely shouldn't sign anything other than a bail form and that you understand you've been accused of a crime.
06:14 DaemonFC; That's necessary for them to let you go. You're not confessing to anything if you sign that.
06:14 DaemonFC; Obviously read it.

06:19 DaemonFC; Cuts off circulation. You can't feel your hands by the time you get to the station.

06:29 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> "I refuse to answer any questions without my attorney present."

06:30 DaemonFC; I had two of my bosses use it on me.
06:30 schestowitz[TR]; yes, I told you about that technique
06:30 DaemonFC; I refused to make a statement.
06:30 schestowitz[TR]; I learned about it from the EPO
06:31 DaemonFC; I knew about Reid before that.
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; so they used a colleague
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; to testify on the other
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; than compare stories
06:31 DaemonFC; They had some equipment that was damaged by someone.
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; and lie about what the other saiod
06:31 DaemonFC; And they knew I normally worked in that area.
06:31 DaemonFC; But they didn't know who did it because it could have been five people.
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; who else was used in thr 'reid'
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; a colleague?
06:31 DaemonFC; So they split us up and interrogated all of us.
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; they need _at least_ a pair
06:31 schestowitz[TR]; they did this to aaron swartz

12:38 t0talist; m
12:40 t0talist; wenn ich nur daran denke, wofuer der gekaempft hat, und was heutzutage draus geworden ist
12:40 t0talist; eine Schande ist das
12:41 t0talist; kurz vor seinem Tot, Ende 1945, hat sie erzaehlt, war er nochmal kurz auf Heimaturlaub, und erzaehlte was alles passiert ist, an der Ostfront
12:42 t0talist; ich glaube, diejenigen die darueber sprachen, die kamen dann nicht mehr zurueck
12:42 t0talist; passt nicht in das Geschichtsbild, wenn Betroffene berichten
12:43 t0talist; anstelle dessen verbreitet schestowitz[TR] hier irgendwelchen Quatsch, er muss es ja wissen
12:44 schestowitz[TR]; germany did not defend itself from te soviets
12:45 schestowitz[TR]; it conspired with them
12:45 schestowitz[TR]; at one point
12:45 schestowitz[TR]; and made pretexts for invading and sharing poland
12:45 schestowitz[TR]; after it had already invaded other countries
12:45 schestowitz[TR]; like putin does not
12:45 schestowitz[TR]; *now
12:45 schestowitz[TR]; anyway, this is for techpol
12:45 t0talist; schestowitz[TR]: you started this, again
12:45 t0talist; and you started it here
12:46 schestowitz[TR]; you were nymshifting
12:46 schestowitz[TR]; the older nickname wasn't already taken
12:46 t0talist; man cities in Poland, before WW1, belonged to Germany
12:46 t0talist; besides, Poland/Belarus/Ukraine are a common cultural realm of theirs
12:46 t0talist; next to lithuania
12:46 schestowitz[TR]; "bblongers"
12:46 schestowitz[TR]; ukraine "Belonged" to ussr
12:46 schestowitz[TR]; so did hungary
12:46 t0talist; it's a myth, Poland didn't ahve a nation state of theirs
12:47 t0talist; and millions of Germans lived there, in Poland/Ukraine, it was THEIR homes, for hundreds of years
12:47 schestowitz[TR]; same argument made on ukraine
12:47 schestowitz[TR]; or crimear
12:47 schestowitz[TR]; many americans live in canada
12:47 t0talist; and millions were deported and murdered, by the soviets
12:47 schestowitz[TR]; let USA annex canada then
12:47 t0talist; canadians do not threat usa with violence and deportation
12:48 schestowitz[TR]; good thing german invaded france then?
12:48 schestowitz[TR]; to saved poles from deportation?
12:48 schestowitz[TR]; to what? camps?
12:49 t0talist; my uncle Horst went to France for three years
12:49 t0talist; can't talk to him anymore, because he is dead
12:49 schestowitz[TR]; maybe germany should have also invaded sweden, the neutral?
12:49 schestowitz[TR]; a third of sweden was germans by blood hundred of years prior
12:49 t0talist; invaded? millions of germans lived in Poland/Ukraine/CZ for hundreds of years before
12:50 t0talist; and many cities there, ARE german cities
12:50 t0talist; Prag, Koenigsberg, Danzig
12:50 schestowitz[TR]; greece has german cities?
12:50 schestowitz[TR]; italy has german cities?
12:50 t0talist; i think so, yes, although the history of this predates WW2, long time ago
12:51 schestowitz[TR]; so if some germans live in country x, counter belongs to germany
12:51 schestowitz[TR]; and ukraine is russia-owned because some russians lived there?
12:51 t0talist; if the cities were built by germans, then yes
12:51 schestowitz[TR]; and finland too?
12:51 schestowitz[TR]; some finns speak rusian
12:51 schestowitz[TR]; some americans speak french
12:51 schestowitz[TR]; all canadians (almost) speak english
12:51 t0talist; well, there wasn't millions of fins and muricans murdered and deported from their homes
12:52 t0talist; germans were

12:53 t0talist; however, the land and power-grab into east-germany, since 1990, that's another red-line crossed since then
12:54 t0talist; since this wasn't enough to loot and plunder, Ukraine enjoys
12:54 t0talist; "western values" nowadays
12:54 schestowitz[TR]; fine then
12:54 schestowitz[TR]; we should take bucha values
12:54 schestowitz[TR]; and assume eastern germany is for the russians
12:55 t0talist; it is my homeland, and i demand certain agitators and war criminals to leave from there
12:55 t0talist; asap
12:55 schestowitz[TR]; germany should control germany
12:55 schestowitz[TR]; not putin
12:55 schestowitz[TR]; not biden
12:55 schestowitz[TR]; not wall street
12:55 schestowitz[TR]; but you seem to have gone into this binary mode and you help putin advance back into enslaving 200 million people
12:55 t0talist; well, after three currency-reforms/expropriations, no doubt who is controlling
12:56 schestowitz[TR]; because you perceive putin as the nemesis
12:56 schestowitz[TR]; because this system 'failed' you
12:56 schestowitz[TR]; or you failed at this system
12:56 t0talist; i am irelevant

12:59 t0talist; otherwise, i am not a supporter of Putin, i only think it was not him first and foremost who had escalated this
13:00 schestowitz[TR]; let's ee
13:00 t0talist; instead, it was "EU" with their energy "re-selling" and surplus margins of 1000% something, to gamble with russian energy
13:00 schestowitz[TR]; who n invaded crimea
13:00 schestowitz[TR]; and invalided the whole country
13:00 schestowitz[TR]; despite a lack of a crisis
13:01 t0talist; there was several referendums, just saying, whatever you think of this, i don't care, noone cares

13:01 TR Bot; Religion class numbers slump in state schools since becoming voluntary
13:03 t0talist; furthermore, the whole "ukraine" public tv reporting, is media spectacle, regardless of how severe the conflict in ukraine may or may not be, the public reporting is mostly propaganda rubbish
13:03 schestowitz[TR]; countries don't get to extend their borders by referendums in countries not theirs
13:03 schestowitz[TR]; at gunpoint
13:03 t0talist; ukrainians ARE russians, by the definition of the "kievan rus" itself
13:04 schestowitz[TR]; russia is a naiton
13:04 schestowitz[TR]; not a race
13:04 schestowitz[TR]; austrians are not germans

13:05 t0talist; until 1990, they tried, with the iron-curtain, and nukes stockpiled at the borders, and since 1990 population is expropriated, replaced and indoctrinated
13:05 schestowitz[TR]; and californians chose to become a part of austraia
13:05 schestowitz[TR]; there is a word for this
13:06 schestowitz[TR]; dedition
13:06 schestowitz[TR]; *Sedition
13:06 t0talist; ukraine cannot relocate itself some place else, they are a close neighbor of the russian federation
13:07 t0talist; and it's just braindead stupid, to escalate a conflict between russia and ukraine
13:07 schestowitz[TR]; it's not just abotu ukraine
13:07 schestowitz[TR]; it's the first stop
13:07 schestowitz[TR]; putin did not define a goal and boundaries
13:07 t0talist; the referendum did
13:07 schestowitz[TR]; ukrainians don't wa<nt to become another potatoland like belarus
13:08 t0talist; pardon? Belarus is a major global player with farming equipment, they are a nuclear power, and whatever else i didn't know yet
13:08 t0talist; never visited Belarus though, it's probably not as bad as many say
13:09 t0talist; otherwise i won't speak on behalf of Belarus
13:09 t0talist; only noticed, "EU" seeked to ignite political turmoil there too, with agitators inciting there (Tichanowskaja and similar)
13:09 XRevan86; "there was several referendums, just saying, whatever you think of this, i don't care, noone cares" <- A bullshit "referendum" somehow makes any prior actions valid?
13:10 XRevan86; Ye cannot argue that Putin acted on a "referendum" regardless though, as that would be anachronistic.
13:10 t0talist; i do not argue anything, it's just a fact there was several referendums in eastern-ukraine
13:11 t0talist; and such are, typically, the way to settle for peace (Minsk agreements)
13:11 XRevan86; After the fact, of dubious quality, under pressure.
13:11 t0talist; sure, there was lots of pressure, EU seeking gigantic re-selling margin surplus on russian LNG
13:11 t0talist; and China, depending on wheat imports, from Ukraine
13:12 t0talist; and whoever else, placed their bets (Iran with drones, Turkey with drones)
13:12 t0talist; well, i won't speak on behalf of Ukraine either
13:12 t0talist; all i am saying is, i want some particular people to leave MY homeland
13:12 t0talist; #1 on my hitlist currently, A Baerbock, leaving Potsdam, and forbidden to enter my homeland ever again
13:13 XRevan86; I don't know why I'm even arguing with you.
13:16 XRevan86; Ye speak of media spectacles but ye are invariably baited by Russian disinformation campaigns.
13:16 t0talist; well, the Chinese imports of Ukrainian wheet, this wasn't circulated anywhere yet, neither by "EU" nor by Kremlin... why?
13:17 t0talist; that's why i am saying, most of the public reporting, is just media spectacle and propaganda junk
13:17 psydroid2; l33t ukrainian w33d
13:17 XRevan86; t0talist: Chinese economic relations with Ukraine are well-known.
13:17 XRevan86; So flipping what?
13:18 t0talist; i didn't know China was a major importer of Ukrainian wheat
13:18 t0talist; and China too proposed to act as a "neutral" moderator for "peace talks", such as refraining from "nuclear" weapons
13:19 t0talist; next week, Lukashenko (Belarus is another global player for farming and wheat), announced to visit Peking for several days

13:20 t0talist; XRevan86: what i am worried is the inflationary trend here, +50% for bread in one year
13:20 t0talist; LNG +400% up to +3000% (don't know yet with certainty, still waiting for the bills)
13:20 t0talist; electricity, +100% inflation, in 12 month
13:21 t0talist; just saying, thats the THIRD expropriation in my lifetime already
13:23 t0talist; reading a little more about history, when Heinz joined Wehrmacht at the age of 16 years, to defend Leipzig at Flak air defense, it was useless, when the "allies" dropped 800 tons of bombs onto my home
13:23 t0talist; i think that's an important difference, to many others talking all day long, their cities and homes weren't detonated to dust
13:25 t0talist; that's past, and for the future i got a prognosis for you: there won't be any bail-out on my accounts ever again
13:25 t0talist; simply because, after three expropriations, there simply isn't anything remaining to loot and plunder again

15:30 t0talist; so, after they had stolen and looted MY homeland, now they're stealing the energy, and they're stealing the money too, excess amounts of it, on MY account.
15:32 schestowitz[TR]; it's not your homeland, it's your ego
15:32 t0talist; i mean, they have stolen the energy and money anyway, yet why did it require MY account to do so?
15:32 schestowitz[TR]; you want ethnic cleansing
15:32 schestowitz[TR]; it's not your account
15:32 schestowitz[TR]; you don't pay taxes
15:33 t0talist; schestowitz[TR]: it is NOT me who had stolen anyones homeland and deported the population.
15:33 schestowitz[TR]; germany did both
15:33 t0talist; schestowitz[TR]: i paid alot of it, and the +3000% surplus margins on MY energy bill, that's not nothing either.
15:34 t0talist; schestowitz[TR]: i did not. my parents did not, and my grandparents didn't.

15:35 t0talist; i never spouted anything, i remained silent two decades.

15:35 t0talist; i never bothered with the anglo-american propaganda goo, that's none of mine, ask them, USA, not me.
15:36 t0talist; besides, it was those "allies", who agreed to the terms of murder and deportation of millions from their homes.

15:38 t0talist; that's not at least an opinion, nor revisionist, that's a fact.
15:40 schestowitz[TR]; do this in techpol
15:40 t0talist; and i had not yet expressed my opinion on this either at least, which is, I consider it impossible to re-assign land and property to those who were the legitimate owners.
15:40 schestowitz[TR]; we don't need nazi trash in the tech channel
15:40 t0talist; schestowitz[TR]: you began this, again. you started this, here in this channel.
15:41 t0talist; however, i too consider the "peace treaties" (potsdam, 2+4, EU contracts) as what they are, void, not worth the piece of paper written onto
15:41 t0talist; because it is murderous and corrupt EU bureaucrats themselves, who violate law and order with every opportunity they got, to bargain
15:42 t0talist; however, just as said, there won't be yet another "bail-out" of theirs on MY account, simply because it's the THIRD expropriation since 1990 already, and nothing remaining anymore
15:49 t0talist; anyway, i am certain about this, Brandenburg, that's not the place for Baerbock to stay, as she says on her website as "this is my homeland", no it's not

15:51 schestowitz[TR]; we don't censor people
15:51 schestowitz[TR]; we call them what they are, instead
15:52 t0talist; yet you see, this type of "social democrat" prefers not to live in the homeless ghettos he created himself, in Hamburg
15:52 t0talist; he rather resides in Potsdam, on the other side of the iron curtain
15:56 t0talist; besides, there had NEVER been any "referendum" over this either, i was never asked about any of this: https://www.wiederitzsch-im-blick.de/mockau-iii-schnelle-umnutzung-fuer-fluechtlinge-aus-dem-krieg-in-der-ukraine/

15:56 t0talist; a "social democrat" refugee camp, to arrange for some more of the cheap labor of theirs
15:58 t0talist; i am still curious, why Ukrainians had to be accomodated there, since there is many closely related nation states accross entire europe, for such a re-settlement policy: Serbia, Croatia, CZ, Slowakia, Slowenia, Poland, Belarus, Russian Federation
15:58 schestowitz[TR]; wrong channel for this
15:58 t0talist; there is that man opportunities, to accomodate them, a region 10fold the size of what you consider "Germany" (i don't anymore)
15:59 t0talist; just in case if there was any questions who invaded whom, since 2022 it was at least another 1million of this arriving
16:00 t0talist; and you know what, if there had been any referendum over this, people may have even agreed to Ukrainians welcomed
16:01 t0talist; if it were ukrainians, that's another question involved, who had arrived, since february 2022
16:01 t0talist; schestowitz[TR]: and the day when you couldn't afford the rent of your appartment anymore, just remember this
16:04 t0talist; when they smash an energy bill onto your desk, of 3EUros/kWh (or pounds or dollars, doesn't matter anymore since that's off-scale several thousand percent of inflation)... enjoy

17:38 t0talist; yep, even with wget kernel.org responds with http 302, and if you haven't got any of the recent tls/ssl implementation, kernel.org will lock you out too
17:39 t0talist; i'll try with slackware 4.0 soon if the ssl implementation of that time still suffices for anything at all; and i already had considered removing ssl/tls entirely, for an unrelated reasons

17:46 t0talist; there's no way to forcibly disable ssl/tls (even when for security concerns it was enabled/redirected-to by default, it can't be disabled)
17:47 t0talist; i think, the git repos may still be accessible somewhere, with git:// protocol, which isn't encrypted and doesn't require ssl/tls
17:48 t0talist; except if they disabled that too
17:49 t0talist; with irc, historically, this didn't require ssl/tls either; a bnc and p2p-fish was good enough, efnet style
17:49 t0talist; for the sake of it, i'll remove ssl/tls, replace sshv2 with sshv1 and stick to the corner of "the internet" which doesn't require either ipv6 or ssl/tls or anything
17:50 t0talist; if this doesn't work, ax.25 is another idea remaining, with analog modems (if typical VoIP lines could carry this nowadays, i fear for the worst)
17:52 t0talist; because, 20 years ago, you could still dial-into remotely wherever you wished, with analog modems, and whichever line-scrambler you liked

18:00 t0talist; well, i'll increase priority of analog-modem connectivity

18:01 t0talist; or too complex
18:03 t0talist; i think this is possible, with analog modems, and each host having TWO analog POTS lines, to connect/dial a RING/bus-topology with 9600baud at layer2, to connect several hosts with each other
18:04 t0talist; and that's a highly fragile topology
18:05 t0talist; at least, with a ring connected/dialed like this, a net-split outage of this required two total disconnects at the same time

18:06 t0talist; i still got an analog-phone port from telekom in my home, it's not connected anymore, POTS is connected with VoIP here, which i dislike more each day i am thinking about it
18:08 t0talist; the analog POTS lines are defunct nowdays, even when it's copper-wires, it's integrated into the _digital_ telekom network (PDH, SDH)
18:10 t0talist; the problem with this, even when a RING-topology was dialed/connected, the layer1/layer2 of this isn't _physical_, it's virtual(!), on top of whatever telekom does
18:12 t0talist; hence any redundancy or topology on top is virtualized

18:18 t0talist; it's probably best to skip this alltogether, and move to ax.25 directly, if this can be soldered together with some ttl7400 chips and an antenna

18:27 t0talist; few days ago, russia showcased a new tank, intended for autonomous and/or remote-controlled operation, it's called MARKER by them
18:27 t0talist; it's neat, it's much smaller than a normal heavy tank, and it's capable for many different missions
18:28 t0talist; however, it got one weak spot, technically: radio communications
18:29 t0talist; really depends, on the scenario, in any case, whichever it was, if the radio communictions built upon on the modern designs, it's a problem then
18:29 t0talist; the last NATO standard i recall, was the MIL-STD-188, which was interesting outside military use alike
18:29 XRevan86; It's been like last month.
18:30 XRevan86; And whether it's interesting to call something "neat" that has not proven itself in combat.
18:30 t0talist; including the fact, they didn't come up with anything since then, a modernized mil-std-188 for battlefield radio communications (or other emergency like situations)
18:30 XRevan86; One would think that the Germans will be more cautious of the various Wunderwaffe.
18:31 t0talist; we haven't got analog radio x.25 anymore to my knowledge, railway was the last one, and theirs failed twice in recent 12 month
18:31 t0talist; and, this wasn't battlefield operation
18:31 t0talist; it's critical infrastructure only, sitting on top of virtualized redundancy
18:33 t0talist; in leopard2 tanks, they showed with pride their microsoft vista2000 thing, with huge screens inside... hell, am i impressed about this
18:33 t0talist; and the MARKER probably isn't much different to this
18:33 XRevan86; t0talist: By the way, how's your opinion on the Shakhed loitering munition being the ultimate weapon going?
18:34 t0talist; XRevan86: don't know yet, i only raised scepticism any air-defense was sufficiently capable to defend against this type of thing
18:35 XRevan86; t0talist: Once Ukrainians learnt how to deal with them they stopped being a significant threat.
18:35 XRevan86; And the funny thing is that this happened when ye were telling us how great they are.
18:35 t0talist; XRevan86: i commented on the air-defense, and didn't praise the drones
18:35 XRevan86; Ye noticed their effectiveness when their prime days were already over.
18:35 t0talist; i think it is difficult and/or impossible to reliably defend against such drones
18:36 t0talist; XRevan86: how did ukraine defend against air-to-ground cruise missiles? how many? and which?
18:36 XRevan86; t0talist: 100% air defence is impossible.
18:37 XRevan86; Not just with loitering munition, but in general.
18:37 t0talist; XRevan86: my grandfather served at FLAG air defense in WW2, when 800 tons of payload was delivered over leipzig, and little has changed since then, most of it hit the ground
18:37 t0talist; devastating
18:37 t0talist; FLAK
18:37 XRevan86; t0talist: Shaheds carry 50km of explosives each.
18:38 psydroid2; welcome to #techpolrights
18:38 XRevan86; (at beast)
18:38 XRevan86; * (at best)
18:38 t0talist; USAF still got their B52, because they know, it's almost impossible to defend against this
18:39 t0talist; in the end, it's mutual threats, the military rationale, not pushing the button, because neither could defend against anyone else
18:40 t0talist; nowadays, there isn't any radio communications at least, i would trust for anything
18:40 XRevan86; t0talist: I can give you a more real example: Strizh drones that Ukrainians adapted to serve as loitering munition flying at low altitude managed to hit targets near Moscow.
18:41 XRevan86; Now that's spooky, because these drones are enormous, however, there are downsides: they don't have that many of them, and low altitudes mean that they can just hit a tree on their way there.
18:41 XRevan86; Which has happened several times now.
18:41 XRevan86; (low altitudes are good for evading air defence)
18:42 t0talist; high altitudes are too god for evading air defence
18:42 t0talist; good
18:43 XRevan86; Maybe if the missile is in space.

18:45 t0talist; Belarus may produce some ttl7400 era type chips still, last time i read about this
18:46 t0talist; just as said, i wouldn't underestimate them, as a potatoe farming country
18:46 t0talist; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7400-series_integrated_circuits
18:46 TR Bot; 7400-series integrated circuits - Wikipedia
18:47 t0talist; "Around 1990 the production of standard logic ceased in all Eastern European countries except the Soviet Union and later Russia and Belarus" ...
18:48 t0talist; "As of 2016, the series 133, 155, 1533, 1533, 1554, 1594, and 5584 were in production at "Integral" in Belarus", at least.
18:48 t0talist; "EU", for one or another reason, were excited about Belarus too (the Tichanowskaja clownry)
18:49 t0talist; i doubt this is what the Russian MARKER is equipped with, for digital radio
18:53 t0talist; until 1990, we could at least receive analog radio in different radio bands (short-wave, long-wave, etc), including moscow and other distant parts
18:54 t0talist; and once you got this, long-range ax.25 was feasible, to interconnect teletype terminals
18:56 t0talist; btw. it was the soviets known for having invented UMTS modulation scheme, in 1960s already (or earlier), for their military, long before telco deployed this with UMTS/LTE
18:58 t0talist; in germany, the analog radio towers were abandoned (medium-range ones) entirely... "too expensive", meanwhile the propaganda prostitues cash in billions of cash each year, for their polit circus quackery on TV
18:59 t0talist; i don't know, if the former "Fernmeldeamt" (long-distance telecommunications office of federal postal service) of german government still exists, probably not
18:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
19:01 t0talist; otherwise, we may have known already, what had caused the two outages in critical infrastructure (railway) in germany
19:02 t0talist; in march 2023 they plan for final nuclear shutdown here, which is, ups, next month... let the show begin

19:04 -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-http://apina.biz/181329.jpg
19:06 t0talist; in chernobyl, the soviets had built giant antennas
19:07 t0talist; and some smaller ones, which are round-shaped, like a balloon, for transmission into all directions
19:08 t0talist; the dishes are used for directional beams
19:08 t0talist; however, amateur ax.25 may not need giant antennas
19:09 t0talist; thinking about it, a gigatron with ax.25, all soldered onto breadboard, all circuitry documented, not encumbered with patents or anything
19:10 t0talist; this is, what they fight tooth and nail in pentagon, noone must not have
19:11 t0talist; that's why, east-german manufacturing, was worth a fortune, probably more than anything else military got nowadays
19:11 t0talist; because, we produced everything, tv screens, radios, semiconductors, cables, and when west-german air-force was sent abroad, we too provided the heated tents required
19:12 t0talist; the typical east-german soviet fur-hats too, were practical, given the fact during WW2 most soldiers just froze to death, without such hats

20:43 t0talist; i see, there's even a software-modem implementation for AX.25 available, it's GPL2, to transmit this with any ordinary sound-card
20:44 t0talist; sure then, when limited to audio-band, that's roughly 2400 baud, however, NATO mil-std-188 didn't specify more than that either
20:44 t0talist; with copper wire, that's a no-brainer almost, to hack together a ax.25 terminal
20:44 t0talist; with transmission over-the-air, i am not sure, in particular long-range
20:45 t0talist; nonetheless, THIS, is 100% free and opensource, in comparison to any other "WiFi" or UMTS
20:45 t0talist; and, the required measurement gear, is both available, and affordable
20:46 t0talist; audio-band is easily measured on any cheap analog or digital scope (although digital scopes are all proprietary, including the xilinx spartan chips those use)
20:46 t0talist; well, an analog scope should do just fine too
20:47 t0talist; i don't know, just for fun, that's just too much work, and the ax.25 softmodem implementation doesn't meet acceptance criteria for system integration (cmake, meh)
20:47 t0talist; however, direwolf itself is written in C, good, not c++
20:49 *DaemonFC (~daemonfc@4yb3icc5dpsa8.irc) has joined #techrights
20:49 t0talist; direwolf too implements a 9600baud soft-modem... just in case, if the line-levels match, the soundcard could directly be connected to the telekom copper-wiring, to dial anywhere
20:51 t0talist; that's amazing, in it's own way, and given the situation with free software and wifi, one has to begin somewhere
20:52 t0talist; i bought some usb 56k modem dongles while ago, never tried those yet, to see which drivers and software packages are necessary
20:52 t0talist; hacking facsimile support (outside the chaos which is available upstream), plotting onto my precious matrix plotter, just for the sake of it
20:53 t0talist; and given access to ALL OSI layers is available with this, any custom line-scrambler shouldn't be too difficult to implement
20:53 *GNUmoon2 (~GNUmoon@5cyuy7w3cjfkn.irc) has joined #techrights
20:54 t0talist; the NATO one specified, was a rather weak one, 8bit scrambler or something, which is good enough for what it is, and nowadays a 32bit one isn't too challenging either
20:57 t0talist; 9600baud, who cares? that's GSM era data rates only. synchronous vt220 scrolling would block due to this, because it's that slow.
20:58 t0talist; and i wouldn't want to transmit giant sixels over such a line either, nonetheless, it's possible, to transmit ascii and bitmaps (for scientific plots and illustrations)
20:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
21:00 t0talist; the hayes300 baud modem, that's much slower even, nonetheless, a fully documented and assembled breadboard of this, is still worth a fortune
21:00 t0talist; to know, how this is done, in hardware

21:03 t0talist; a 56k modem in hardware, that's much more challenging, what was it, the trellis code, to achieve 56k in audio-band
21:03 t0talist; and with hardware, i was thinking of down-to digital circuitry level, without any complex microcontroller
21:04 t0talist; don't know how 56k modem hardware was made, and if it required some firmware and operating system inside, a hayes 300 modem probably didn't have any, firmware
21:05 t0talist; and since the 9600baud modem is available, in software, i mean, it's only the soundcard which is limited to audioband, artificially
21:06 t0talist; modern dsp, can achieve much higher data-rates, easily, by removing some filters, and transmission over-the-air, even without the complicated UMTS modulation scheme
21:08 t0talist; don't remember exactly how, umts is using orthogonal vectors or something, to spread different channels orthogonally to each other
21:08 t0talist; earlier systems didn't do that, those are time-multiplexed or frequency-multiplexed
21:10 t0talist; ironically, that's why GSM was a superior system to UMTS somehow, since by coincidence it was circuit-switched too, with strictly assigned time-slots and channels
21:11 t0talist; don't know, if there is any frequency bands remaining, for amateurs, and which power was permitted

21:11 DaemonFC; The major problem with RT is that it alternates between laughable Russian propaganda and articles that make valid points that the media in the Americas and Europe won't publish because it looks very bad, and many people may not be able to spot the difference.
21:11 DaemonFC; The US hasn't managed to find an excuse to blockade the site so nobody can choose to read it if they want to, but it wouldn't surprise me if they have a "trap" on all of the ISPs that log who is reading it so they can be scrutinized.

21:19 DaemonFC; Pete is a very plastic person. I found it uncomfortable to watch him kissing his husband. There's no love there. It's a political marriage.

21:21 DaemonFC; He's incompetent, he's unqualified for ANY important political job, the ONLY reason he's transportation secretary is because he bowed out and endorsed Biden and Biden can say he's got a gay man somewhere in the Cabinet.
21:21 DaemonFC; Also, he told someone that was struggling to pay for gasoline due to other Biden Administration incompetence and hyperinflation to just get an EV, which has half its normal range for 6 months in Illinois with nowhere to plug in.

21:24 DaemonFC; I was laughing my butt off at someone up here near Wisconsin who rented an EV in the winter and said the Tesla struggled to make it even 150 miles on a charge and so they had to find one of the 4 fast charging stations in a suburban county of a million people and wait hours for the battery to be charged.
21:24 DaemonFC; Spent half his trip trying to keep the car charged and playing on the tablet while he was stuck at the charging station, just to do it all again the next day.
21:35 t0talist; railway can continue operation, even with heaviest snow-fall
21:36 t0talist; while ago, i had seen a documentary about south-america some place, where mechanics still maintain old steam lokomotives
21:37 t0talist; they still produce and weld all steel parts for this themselves, without any complicated supply chain and management
21:38 MinceR; "if i had to do it all over again and had to take bids all over again, i would still do it all over again, i would do it all over again, i'd do it 15 times over again, if i'd bought 15 house that had foundation problems every time, i would still do it all over again"
21:39 t0talist; and they too kept all schematics and documents, although they admitted they couldn't read german, the construction plans were still helpful
21:40 t0talist; this isn't some nostalgia, about railway, this south-american steam lokomotive is still in operation, and too X.25 is/was, in germany

21:42 t0talist; in late 1980s, the east-german analog POTS system, was automated, with giant electro-mechanical installations, to switch those telephone circuits
21:43 t0talist; of cause, the digital telephone backbone, has huge advantages, it's the analog POTS system missing, which is the problem
21:43 t0talist; and the analog radio towers they abandoned in germany (medium-wave, mittelwelle), because those were "too expensive"
21:43 t0talist; i am wondering, who had bribed whom, to acquire the radio bands
21:44 t0talist; "Telekom", that's already the "privatized" corporation, the historical operate was the federal post (Bundespost, Fernmeldeamt, long-range telecommunications department)
21:45 t0talist; when this was privatized, they "sold" various radio bands, meanwhile german government was still the biggest "shareholder", cashing in a few million shitcoins for this in return
21:46 t0talist; they too abandoned state officials ("Beamte"), which was government staff they couldn't fire, staff which wasn't permitted to strike in labor unions, and staff which didn't negotiate on terms with unions
21:46 t0talist; civilian state officials, among military they retained their ranks and status

21:47 DaemonFC; State's emptying out faster than California.
21:48 t0talist; in germany, it was "social democrats", who did this
21:48 t0talist; it was, particularly them, together with their "liberal" and "eco green" friends (which is the typical gathering surrounding similar "democrats" in USA)

21:51 t0talist; anyway, those who had benefit from dividents and stock exchange exposure, will they now too _pay_ for the three(!) critical system outages in german infrastructure?
21:53 t0talist; i have to dig out the job placement documents from german railway again, where they argued, several thousand were hired into the IT department of theirs already, and, quote, "it's not enough, we're looking for you"
21:56 t0talist; yesterday, i found another vacancy, an energy power plant operator here, seeks a "senior project manager" to pioneer and roll-out another "pilot project", to interconnect energy-grid messaging with the typical telko stuff...
21:57 t0talist; allright, shouldn't they have asked in Bonn, at Telekom (Fernmeldeamt), or at German Railway, too in Bonn (Eisenbahnbundesamt), instead of a public vacancy of a regional energy power plant operator?
21:58 t0talist; and the telekom network management center, isn't far distant, some place in bavaria... to ask there, for "managed networking" services (the internet, simplified speaking, is unmanaged)
21:59 t0talist; instead they're looking for some trainee now, on their "liberalized labor market" of theirs?
22:00 t0talist; and, who is going to pay? 3Euros/kWh? this must be a joke.
22:01 t0talist; i mean, i am only a little sceptical, and nervous, how any "senior project manager" could ever arrange for any of this, _without_ any of the mentioned government offices and a university nearby
22:01 t0talist; long story short, i can't, and next time any of their glorious virtualized redundancy fails, which i fear it might, at frankfurt airport they argued there was "no lives at risk"
22:03 t0talist; too i navigated to the web-site of the telekom university, looking for jobs there... almost all of this is in Bonn (west-"germany"), when the university was located in leipzig... really weird
22:04 t0talist; seems to me, Bonn, just "outsourced" underling's work, into east-germany, up until when there they decided to abandon corporate ownership of this university, and become a _public_ one

22:14 t0talist; this is what "Telekom University" announced, loose translation, 31.12.2022: "December 2022, HfTL Telekom, as the only national university operated by a DAX [stock exchange] listed global corporation, will terminate operation... With this decision conflicts are resolved, caused by a global corporation involved with requirements to control all relevant departements, concerned with academic freedom and teaching at a university"
22:16 t0talist; reminder, i contracted directly with Telekom headquarter, year 2002, and terminated 2005 already, "exmatriculated on official order; reason, missing feedback"
22:18 t0talist; 17 years later, government argued with "sabotage", when three total outages occured in critical infrastructure (2x railway and their x.25 messaging, 1x Frankfurt Airport central data node). i did NOT sabotage anything, never.
22:18 t0talist; i must admit, it took a little while, 17 years.

22:32 t0talist; in case this minor fact was missed, german railway, operated their _own_ telephone infrastructure, independent from "Telekom", once this was "privatized"
22:33 t0talist; historically, railway/telekom/post/airports were coordinated in public state institutions, by state officials, similar to military ranks applied with diplomas and other academic degrees, together, with their requirements for telekom infrastructure
22:35 t0talist; we got the glorious military still, and their ranks, and their "special military budget", what was it, another 100billion, that's nothing
22:35 t0talist; even when, this "german" government here, dumped a trillion into their apparatus, where should this end up? on the accounts of shareholder value in USA?
22:37 t0talist; and in germany, telekom wasn't willing to maintain x.25 any longer, which interconnected energy installations (power plants), railway, airports, and who knows what else?
22:40 t0talist; at frankfurt airport, when some construction workers digged a hole 5meters deep, just to hit one of this "virtually redundant" cabling of telekom, they required almost an entire day, to failover-switch this, and the construction workers supposedly had not known, exactly the spot where they digged was noted on some cabling plans
22:41 t0talist; last time, when this occured at german railway, they didn't mention Telekom whatsoever, it was just "sabotage", and this time Telekom complained it was them who suffered "damages" (for compensation?)
22:43 t0talist; as far as i am concerned, i am burned and compromised beyond repair, and i didn't sabotage anything, nothing whatsoever
22:43 t0talist; and if it was sabotage, then who did it? and why?
22:44 t0talist; police investigation revealed nothing, no reports, nothing.
22:45 t0talist; i mean, i could walk to the next police station myself, and ask... in parallel to filing the criminal complaints (tampered records at employment agency, and accounting fraud with energy prices)
22:45 t0talist; yet, what should police do? jail the entire "social democrat" party convent next time those gather?
22:46 t0talist; well, telekom, that's political, that's why, it's unavoidable, to conflate this.
22:47 t0talist; and, just what if, those madmen had wrecked the entire global telekom backbone beyond repair, in the last two decades of "globalized economy"? then what?
