00:23 DaemonFC; schestowitz Therapists are basically useless eaters. They get paid to talk people around in circles. Sometimes by people who really are quite poisonous and want to be told how they aren't so bad by people they pay to tell them that.

00:23 DaemonFC; The entire concept of therapy is ridiculous.

00:24 DaemonFC; Therapy is basically a luxury item for people who can afford it.

00:25 DaemonFC; Nobody who is broke goes to therapy because nobody cares what sort of trauma living in a tent and asking people for change did to them, or what got them there.

00:26 DaemonFC; When a person says they go to therapy it only broadens my contempt for them because they're just some rich asshole who almost has to invent drama to talk about for $100 an hour.

00:38 DaemonFC; Brave is pretty good. However, like Firefox, it has so much junk to turn off it almost defies telling anyone how to set it up.

00:38 DaemonFC; Firefox is active malware and has a voracious appetite for RAM though.

00:43 psydruid; so apparently Intel has been working on something RISC-based

00:55 DaemonFC; schestowitz Some small revisions to formatting right before you copied.

00:55 DaemonFC; Just capitalizations and stuff I think.

00:57 DaemonFC; Basically "You defamed Richard Stallman, trashed Firefox, pissed off nearly 80 million users into leaving in just 5 years, and Brendan Eich you you also smeared and chased out of Mozilla has gotten most of your former users. Then you lost so much money you had to fire a third of the company and go on a hiring freeze. How is the Corporate Arsonist, Baker, working out?"

00:58 MinceR; then they rebranded StringARM to XScale, then sold XScale to Marvell

00:58 MinceR; then they tried to compete with ARM using Atom, which didn't work out

00:59 DaemonFC; schestowitz I wonder how well Brave works on the Pi, or if it has a port.

01:11 MinceR; also, iirc intHell also has a shit-stained hand in the RISC-V pie

18:03 prurigro; schestowitz: I assume you're of the opinion that secure boot should be avoided even if you can completely replace microsoft's keys? I've been toying with the idea of testing it out but not sure how I feel about the ideological implications

18:03 schestowitz; it would be quite pointless

18:04 schestowitz; if you trust yourself

18:04 schestowitz; why add this?

18:04 schestowitz; to get an OS or kernel hash?

18:04 schestowitz; write it down

18:04 schestowitz; display it when the machine starts

18:04 prurigro; mostly on the chance that my laptop is temporarily confescated at an airport

18:04 schestowitz; decide whether or not to get ahead, if you updated the kernel it was not tampered with

18:04 prurigro; though there's probably ways around it anyway

18:05 prurigro; the hash idea is interesting

18:05 prurigro; I assume it could be pretty easily replicated, but then it's questionable whether they'd know to replicate it

18:05 schestowitz; the air[port issue is more complex

18:05 schestowitz; i wrote a lot about it circa 2015

18:06 schestowitz; when I would send a laptop without data on it

18:06 prurigro; send through an airport you mean?

18:06 schestowitz; if you let them boot it, to 'check' the battery works and it's not a bomb

18:06 schestowitz; then they can just copy your file

18:07 schestowitz; without tinkering with the system

18:07 prurigro; in theory luks should be able to avoid issues there, unless they also get you to decrypt it

18:07 schestowitz; my main laptop did not leave the home since 2014

18:08 prurigro; sounds more like a desktop with a builtin UPS haha

18:08 schestowitz; lusks is risky

18:08 schestowitz; as you can lose access to your own stuff

18:08 schestowitz; if a bit slips

18:08 schestowitz; *flips

18:08 schestowitz; it's ok for some things

18:09 prurigro; I've used it on all portable machines I've owned since 2011 or so without issues, but then I also use borg just in case these days

18:10 prurigro; and for encrypted image files I just make sure I have tons of copies

18:10 schestowitz; what saddens me is,

18:10 schestowitz; a lot of the security "industry" offers patenyly BS solutions

18:10 schestowitz; like, people in a shared office

18:11 schestowitz; talking abouy solution a and b

18:11 schestowitz; while not even locking their drawers when they go get coffee

18:11 schestowitz; it's like ppputting up a fence and leaving the gate open

18:11 schestowitz; some charlatans sell you the idea os "secure" Windows

18:12 schestowitz; it's ad because then you argue with them

18:12 schestowitz; and get nowhere

18:12 schestowitz; like when i tried about 10 times to tell my employer to stop using lastpass

18:12 schestowitz; till there were several data breaches

18:13 schestowitz; aka "password in the clown"

18:13 prurigro; I've noticed that the security scene has gotten to this point where "security" overrides personal freedom, and it's not even actual security a lot of the time, it's these "trust me" closed source solutions touted as being better than verifiable code

18:13 prurigro; like lastpass

18:13 schestowitz; yeah

18:13 schestowitz; exactly

18:15 prurigro; keepassxc and syncthing are a fantastic combo on that note- no third party servers with your db, encrypted at rest, plugins to avoid clipboard attacks and they're of the opinion that "secure enclaves" are a bad approach

18:15 schestowitz; i think it depends

18:15 schestowitz; starting with basics, like

18:15 schestowitz; who gets physical access

18:15 schestowitz; inc. breakin

18:15 schestowitz; inc. by state/police

18:16 schestowitz; i spoke to police about 5 hours this month on the phone

18:16 schestowitz; not about me

18:16 schestowitz; but people who vandalised and attacked the site, my wife etc.

18:16 schestowitz; police has many powers, some excessive

18:16 schestowitz; in the US, due to gun possession, they send out goons like SWAT

18:17 schestowitz; weeks ago they raised a local paper

18:17 schestowitz; in kansas

18:17 schestowitz; *raided

18:17 schestowitz; so no matter what OS they used

18:17 schestowitz; or encryption

18:17 schestowitz; they lost all their computer devices and more

18:17 schestowitz; with one big raid

18:17 prurigro; I remember this article back in the day where this (iirc) ~16 year old hacker had this failsafe where he'd flick a switch on his computer and it would melt the drives or something, and the police broke down his door so he goes to flick the switch, they think he's going for a gun and *bam* he's dead

18:18 schestowitz; uk police disguises itself as post/courier

18:18 schestowitz; so you might not know it's cops

18:18 schestowitz; till it's too late

18:18 schestowitz; Lauri Love case

18:18 prurigro; so you answer the door and then they grab you, instead of shooting you while you try to destroy evidence? haha

18:18 prurigro; sounds like a better approach honestly

18:19 schestowitz; depends on the home, you might see the build-up of thugs

18:20 schestowitz; before answering the door

18:20 schestowitz; most likely his laptop was still powered on

18:20 schestowitz; they sent his devices to the US (CIA most likely)

18:21 schestowitz; he's "only" lucky he is still alive

18:21 schestowitz; they wanted to kill and/or torture him at first

18:21 prurigro; that's the other thing about luks- if you're actually concerned about actors trying to target your data and you walk away from your laptop, power it off

18:21 schestowitz; for many others careers were ruined

18:21 schestowitz; we suffered lots of vandalism here this past year

18:21 schestowitz; ddos, doxing etc.

18:21 schestowitz; and i will write about it and who did it, how...

18:22 schestowitz; so for journalists and activists physical secuirty matters more

18:22 schestowitz; even if they use Windows

18:22 prurigro; I've read your articles on doxing, but haven't seen anything about DDoS attacks- you're running into those too?

18:22 schestowitz; the cops don't care what OS they use

18:22 schestowitz; they just need the physical drives

18:22 schestowitz; and crib notes like passwords for the drive

18:23 schestowitz; prurigro: I will get to that later this year

18:23 schestowitz; police is still investigating

18:24 prurigro; it's funny, I was literally just telling a friend (who's server and home internet died for like 4 hours last night because the ISP got DDoS'd) that it seems like those attacks are happening way more frequently these days

18:24 schestowitz; they may

18:24 schestowitz; but servers got beefier

18:24 schestowitz; and many use CDNs and cashing of all sorts

18:24 schestowitz; even intra-db caches

18:25 prurigro; true, though that only makes it more difficult for new upstarts that don't have the connections to build infrastructure like that

18:26 prurigro; _conspiracy hat_ maybe that was the plan behind the "internet of things" from the beginning

18:26 schestowitz; what is iot anyway?

18:26 schestowitz; anything they called that is now branded differently

18:27 prurigro; cheap, insecure/exploitable devices that can't be updated connected to the internet

18:27 prurigro; (is my definition)

18:27 schestowitz; those are 20 years old

18:29 prurigro; baby cams, video doorbells, internet connected washers and dryers, "smart fridges", 5+ year old smart TVs, 5+ year old smart thermostats

18:29 schestowitz; lights

18:29 prurigro; true lmao

18:29 prurigro; I still can't believe there are wifi-connected lights, the concept is just so ridiculous

18:29 schestowitz; "wWITH AN APP"

18:29 schestowitz; that does not work with any Android version newers than 5 years ago"

18:30 prurigro; always with an app- finding stuff without an app has made shopping for electronics really stressful

18:30 schestowitz; "your phone is too new for this light to opeprate" ;)

18:30 schestowitz; "throw it away, buy a new one"

18:30 prurigro; haha, exactly

18:30 prurigro; perfectly good light, but now it's a liability

18:30 schestowitz; or garage door

18:31 schestowitz; "shit., phone out of battery"

18:31 prurigro; oh man, yeah, or front door lock

18:31 schestowitz; "shit, cannot drive to work"

18:31 schestowitz; "no batter, no income"

18:31 prurigro; the power company suddenly has a lot of leverage

18:31 schestowitz; i listen to classics now on a 30+ y.o. steros

18:33 prurigro; my stereo is new enough to have an ethernet port, but not new enough to be able to connect to the internet (you can program it with a PC over the LAN). TV is one of the last name brand models that didn't have wifi. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to upgrade those things

18:34 prurigro; I've noticed recently that even (a small number of, so far) computer monitors are starting to get smart features

18:35 prurigro; you know, in case you want to watch netflix or send the company that makes it occasional screenshots of whatever you're working on

18:36 prurigro; (I'm sure they'd never consider doing that last part)

18:36 schestowitz; <prurigro> I've noticed recently that even (a small number of, so far) computer monitors are starting to get smart features

18:36 schestowitz; i went to a shop for a microphone 2 weeks ago and asked about monitors

18:36 schestowitz; as about 10 years ago it became harder to find them

18:36 schestowitz; most became "smart TV"

18:36 schestowitz; with receiver built in

18:37 schestowitz; and if you wanted a monitor bigger than 29 inch diagonal you were urged to get "smart" TV

18:37 schestowitz; or truly expensive "retina" and "gaming" monitors

18:37 prurigro; yeah, that's basically it- the larger monitors are actually just smart TVs that you pay more for (and have a few more input options)

18:37 schestowitz; all you wanted was DVI/.HDMI/VGA

18:37 schestowitz; even just finding VGA-compatible has gotten a lot harder

18:37 schestowitz; the adapters cost a lot

18:39 prurigro; I recently built a media center PC/server and was pleasantly surprised when I found a motherboard with VGA, but yeah, I don't think you can buy much these days that would be able to plug into

18:39 schestowitz; to work you need mousing, keying, screen

18:39 schestowitz; phones have none of that

18:39 schestowitz; the screen is a miniature emulation of sorts

18:39 schestowitz; you cannot even make finer selections

18:40 schestowitz; the fingertips are imprecise

18:40 schestowitz; and voice input even less precise and slow

18:40 schestowitz; "smartwatches" = tinier than tiny

18:40 prurigro; yeah, not to mention that you can't pause for a second while doing voice input. that said there is _finally_ an open source, offline-only voice input for android

18:40 schestowitz; glorified BEEPER

18:40 schestowitz; with SMS

18:41 schestowitz; but needs bigger batteries

18:41 prurigro; smart watches are great for notifications, but I wouldn't expect them to do more than that + watch functionality

18:41 schestowitz; but notifications are great for nothing

18:41 schestowitz; they interfere and disrupt in most cases

18:42 schestowitz; illusion of productivity

18:42 prurigro; I find them pretty useful when they're occasional- I catch phonecalls I might have otherwise missed

18:42 prurigro; sometimes it's constantly vibrating though and get desensitized and miss everything anyway

18:43 schestowitz; it's potentially useful for some occupations

18:43 prurigro; I should clarify that imo smart watches can only be trusted on a phone with gadgetbridge, and then there are some cli services that work nicely on desktop

18:43 schestowitz; and use cases

18:43 schestowitz; but imho, it's a solkution in search of a problkem

18:44 schestowitz; like cordless mice and keyboards, not headphones

18:44 schestowitz; like wires and cords were so abhorrent

18:44 schestowitz; or cars that beep to tell you distances when you park

18:45 schestowitz; you add complex computers and sensors

18:45 prurigro; the wires on mice and headphones actually did bother me, but wireless keyboards at a desk seem kind of funny considering the keyboard is stationary

18:45 schestowitz; just to help some task

18:45 schestowitz; that you can do ok without

18:45 schestowitz; not good value for all those computer chips

18:45 schestowitz; phebus: then you need batteries for the keyboard

18:45 prurigro; my car beeps every time it drops below 0.3C, which means basically every time I drive in the late fall, winter and early spring it beeps

18:46 schestowitz; and tinker with lost BT signal

18:46 schestowitz; prurigro: signal pollution

18:46 schestowitz; so you end up losing track/sight of critical stuff

18:46 prurigro; BT keyboards don't even work in the bios- so hopefully you can boot without needing to change any settings or select a different kernel or something

18:46 schestowitz; i never even thought about that

18:48 prurigro; I have a wireless mouse since I use it for travel too (I initially just got it for travel but liked it so much that I used it at home too), and I need a second mouse in my drawer for a lot of scenarios like that. (and who decided that using a mouse in the BIOS was the way to go?)

18:49 schestowitz; how far is it from the pc?

18:49 schestowitz; and why is the cord a nuisance?

18:50 schestowitz; corded mouse have a battery :-)

18:50 schestowitz; it lasts forever

18:50 schestowitz; and charges off the computer (not)

18:50 schestowitz; it solved the centuries old issue

18:50 schestowitz; of mice that lacked a charging cord

18:51 schestowitz; one day they invented a mouse that charges while you use it

18:51 prurigro; I have a lot of computers on my desk that the cord needs to wrap around, and the cord would usually be stretched just far enough that it'd be tight if I tried to take it to the right side or bottom of the mouse pad

18:51 schestowitz; they called it.... corded mouse

18:51 schestowitz; use barrier

18:51 schestowitz; or synergy

18:51 prurigro; to be fair to my mouse- the battery lasts about 3 months and takes about 4 hours to charge (and unlike the apple ones, the charge port is on the front)

18:52 schestowitz; i have 5 computers on my desk

18:52 prurigro; I have barrier + waynergy + input-leap all talking to eachother

18:52 schestowitz; but i use one mouse and keyboard most of the tme

18:52 prurigro; waynergy for the pi400 running sway

18:52 schestowitz; my pi400 also runs barrier right now

18:52 schestowitz; so its keyboard is seldom pressed

18:52 prurigro; it does, but barrier doesn't work on wayland

18:52 schestowitz; it's just a glorified enclosure for now

18:53 prurigro; oh, yours, sorry, misread that

18:53 prurigro; yeah, same- the keyboard looks brand new

18:53 schestowitz; it was my wife's vpn machine at work

18:53 prurigro; barrier/input-leap is a hard requirement for any new system at this point

18:53 schestowitz; microsofters doxed her

18:53 schestowitz; so i brought the machine here

18:54 prurigro; vpn machine eh? like for connecting to stuff?

18:54 prurigro; or it had the VPN?

18:54 schestowitz; two vpns

18:56 prurigro; what are you running on it now?

18:58 prurigro; I've been doing alarm 64bit with pretty good results- initially I had to get a separate wifi module, but at one point it started working

21:43 DaemonFC; Today I learned that the Catholics sheltered this war criminal as "an act of charity to a homeless man".

21:44 DaemonFC; It's amazing how charitable they are to the homeless. Maybe they can take in the several thousand in Chicago who haven't done anything wrong.

21:44 DaemonFC; With the charity and stuff.

21:45 DaemonFC; The position of most Christian churches is "God will forgive you but you still have to turn yourself in to the civilian authorities."

21:45 DaemonFC; Seems the Catholics must have really really liked the Nazis and their collaborators.

21:45 DaemonFC; The more I read the more it sickens me.

21:46 DaemonFC; Even into the late 1980s they were still giving them aid and comfort.

21:47 DaemonFC; I actually know of shockingly few people who have committed a laundry list of crimes who just walk into a police station and tell them everything.

21:47 DaemonFC; Maybe there's a reason.

21:48 DaemonFC; I think the default is that most humans will do anything that pleases them at the moment and twist themselves all out of shape either trying to justify it, or at the very least trying to cover it up because it doesn't bother them and they think they're above the law.

22:51 DaemonFC; I have to take the cat to surgery on the 12th, at 8: 30 in the morning.

22:51 DaemonFC; :P

22:51 DaemonFC; That's going to be a very bad day.

22:52 DaemonFC; I told Mandy to take a PTO day that Wednesday.

22:53 DaemonFC; That way I can deal with the cat while I'm normally asleep and use the next day to recover.
