06:21 schestowitz[TR]; As a 'contingency', I will remind people EPO has no legitimacy.

06:21 schestowitz[TR]; Nobody can fix the EPO now. It needs to implode. It's the only way left to rectify things.

06:24 schestowitz[TR]; Yes, definitely, but I check email only about once a day, so there is overhead/latency.

06:26 schestowitz[TR]; Quite a ripoff, maybe because of the allege supply shortages. Those should be about 50 pounds or less.

08:01 schestowitz[TR];

08:01 schestowitz[TR]; Even now, I run into those who think Linux and open source software is made by people living in their parents' basement and writing the code out of the goodness of their hearts. Wrong. So, so wrong.

08:01 schestowitz[TR]; Yes, even now, some people write open source code to scratch an itch or just because they enjoy it. But if you look closely, you'll find that the vast majority of today's open source programmers do it for the same reason you do your job: money.

08:15 schestowitz[TR];

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; The spy clause in the Online Safety Bill will give Ofcom the power to ask private companies to scan everyones private messages on behalf of the government. Quite simply, it is state-mandated private surveillance of the kind that we see in authoritarian regimes.

09:55 schestowitz[TR]; Which is why I find these passages, from Politicos oral history of the events leading up to Russias expanded invasion of Ukraine, a good place to start reading it. Finer now Bidens Deputy National Security Adviser described bringing allies around to preparing for Russias attack by bombarding them with so much information they could no longer ignore evidence of Russ

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:45] So I think they know him pretty well

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:46] what is his position in honeycomb?

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:46] He also worked at Novell

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:46] ah

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:46] maybe that's where their paths crossed

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:46] I ran botcoyynovell

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:46] even boycottnovell

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:46] Staff product engineer

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:47] No Chris is known all these people a lot longer

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:49] There's this tweet that Charity majors says that she knew Nat, miguel and chris when she was 17[21:50] charity is 44 so she's one year older than Chris[21:50] Scratch that she's 42

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:50] So that means she's one of year younger than Nat

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:50] Chris is 49

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:51] Alex is 41[21:51] What's also interesting about this whole thing

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:51] I know this other guy that was a credit card scammer that's the same age as all these guys[21:51] And is also from Rochester

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:51] Which is where Alex is from

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:58] seems a little anecdotal

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [21:59] Yeah it's just another coincidence I guess[22:00] I'm just surprised at how small this world is and how many of these people I know from completely separate parts of my

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [22:00] Life

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [22:00] Just by being a sort of cute girl that you guys like to talk to sometimes

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [22:00] Not you guys

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [22:00] Just guys in general[22:00] Using text to speech and it doesn't work well all the time

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [22:04] Also I don't think you should be discounting anecdotal evidence at this point because basically that's how I know anything

13:09 schestowitz[TR]; [22:09] [22:00] I'm just surprised at how small this world is

Although X-Word was never completed, its dependency on Motif led the Hungry Programmers team led by Chris Toshok to implement LessTif, a free software alternative to the Motif toolkit."
