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.

00:55 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; Arsonist Mitchell is determined to make it so that in 5 years there won't even be a Mozilla.
01:00 DaemonFC; So it's important to consider where to go next. And Brave is actually ripping out a lot of "Chrome Trash" from their fork.

17:57 *schestowitz gives voice to jrmu
17:58 *schestowitz gives voice to ZedHedTed
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; assange was grabbed in the hallway
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; 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
18:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
19:00 schestowitz; that pi runs irc clients, some custom made software of mine, and ytalk
19:01 prurigro; ytalk eh? very cool- for talking over the LAN?
19:01 schestowitz; over ssh

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

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.
