00:01 MinceR; ferromagnetic HDD - antiferromagnetic HDD explosion
00:02 IsambardPrince; It's pretty easy to destroy old hard drives.
00:02 IsambardPrince; It's called thermite.
00:04 IsambardPrince; There's like a dozen ways to make the stuff. There's basically no way for the government to actually prevent it.
00:05 IsambardPrince; You can make a sticky paste out of it with vaseline, or compress it into bricks with plaster of paris.
00:05 Righty; The whole idea is to retain the data on the HDD rather than to destroy ir.
00:05 Righty; *it
00:06 Righty; You just do a single pass of zeros and the data is gone, unless the proprietary software on the HDD controller is crafted to get you.
00:07 Righty; Even that case is possible to mitigate by always using LUKS - there's no data to collect except for encrypted blocks.
00:07 IsambardPrince; I destroyed a pile of old hard drives that had been accumulating on me before I left an apartment a few years ago.
00:07 IsambardPrince; The landlord did ask why part of the lawn was scorched.
00:07 IsambardPrince; :)
00:08 Righty; The main reason to open HDDs is that they have nice neodymium magnets inside, too bad newer HDDs are using smaller ones.
00:08 IsambardPrince; I've recovered data myself on some hard drives in pretty bad shape using DOS-based tools.
00:12 Righty; I would use GNU ddrescure or instead of proprietary software myself.
00:13 Righty; Second is photorec.
00:13 IsambardPrince; I ended up having to just use the phone with my doctor today.
00:13 IsambardPrince; For some reason, the Chromebook's webcam and microphone work fine with local software, with Zoom, with everything else.
00:13 IsambardPrince; But not Zocdoc.
00:16 Righty; The expected result of proprietary software.
00:18 IsambardPrince; Yeah, the good thing is that we can just fallback to using the phone line.
00:18 IsambardPrince; There's some sort of "cone of silence" at the library for video calls with doctors.
00:18 IsambardPrince; Maybe it would work, but then you're using a public facing laptop with Windows to talk to your doctor.
00:19 IsambardPrince; The soundproofing in the room might work fine, but there's all kinds of spyware that could be on this thing.
00:22 Righty; Will be done - both windows and ChromeOS are spyware OS's.

00:31 MinceR; does it work as well as the one in Get Smart?
00:36 IsambardPrince; :D

00:51 IsambardPrince; I was watching David Byrne talking about how the Talking Heads was during the late 70s. He said when he got his first royalties payment he went and bought a 1979 Sony television. Horrible by modern standards, but state of the art back then.
00:52 IsambardPrince; Probably made in Japan. They actually had pride in their domestic economy and hired their own people to work back then.
00:52 IsambardPrince; Now they have homeless encampments and hide them from tourists.
00:52 IsambardPrince; Like America does.
00:55 *includeals has quit (Quit: ZNC - https://znc.in)
00:55 Righty; Japan has always had a homeless problem and of course they would hide the encampments from tourists.
00:55 *includeals (~includeal@2001:8a0:e974:da00::1d7f) has joined #techrights
00:56 Righty; Although housing is cheap, that's no good to those with no money at all.
00:59 Righty; Unlike many countries, Japan still has advanced manufacturing capabilities and has permitted allowed workers to become competent, thus when a sinkhole opens up, they can get it filled in within a few days.
00:59 IsambardPrince; Housing is cheaper there.
01:00 IsambardPrince; But wages are lower.
01:00 IsambardPrince; And good luck finding employment.
01:00 IsambardPrince; It might even be worse on that front than the US.
01:00 Righty; Yep, but even a crappy job at a grocery store will pay enough to cover rent.
01:01 Righty; Lots of employers will try to screw you over if you decide to change jobs even - I've read about a previous employer contacting the new employer.
01:01 IsambardPrince; That happens here.
01:02 IsambardPrince; But many of them go into ass covering mode.
01:02 IsambardPrince; Like Walmart having a number where it just tells them the dates you worked there, positions you had, and the wage you made when you left.
01:02 IsambardPrince; But it doesn't say "He clocked in late a lot and we ended up firing him for whatever."
01:03 IsambardPrince; It verifies that you worked there, but not much else.

01:03 Righty; It shouldn't tell the wage.
01:03 IsambardPrince; So when they fired my spouse's coworker for time card theft (clocking in late them "fixing it"), that doesn't come up.
01:03 IsambardPrince; *then
01:04 IsambardPrince; So she works at Kroger now.
01:04 IsambardPrince; She's unreliable you know.
01:04 IsambardPrince; She was at Walmart like 3 times.
01:04 IsambardPrince; Kept starting over at the entry level wage with no healthcare or 401(k) match or vacation time.
01:04 IsambardPrince; They don't mind that.
01:04 Righty; Such is unathorised data manipulation rather than theft, unless the time cards were stolen.
01:05 IsambardPrince; Once it was because she went to work at Amazon and they got rid of her after 6 months.
01:05 IsambardPrince; She was a supervisor.
01:05 IsambardPrince; So she got in and used her own access code to falsify her time card.
01:05 IsambardPrince; Repeatedly.

01:06 IsambardPrince; This had gone on like 17-18 times, something like that.
01:06 Righty; Ah yes, combining data manipulation with theft.
01:07 IsambardPrince; Another thing Walmart does is they're supposed to fire you after 4.5 attendance points, but some people get 60 and still work there.
01:07 IsambardPrince; Until they want to have a layoff and not call it that.
01:07 darwin; activist/journallist Tommy Robinson has been imprisoned for not giving the state his telephone PC access code, because it has confidential (victims, witnesses, lawyers) information. In USA, one of the constitution's amendment should be updated it's not just your papers that are private, but all your devices/stuff, and that should be a right in UK also. They also want to charge him because someone else leaked a film he made that was banned for
01:07 darwin; telling the truth a corrupt judge lied isn't the truth
01:07 darwin; 'amendments'\
01:07 IsambardPrince; Righty, Walmart loses almost all unemployment claims.
01:07 IsambardPrince; They don't apply their own policies consistently.
01:08 IsambardPrince; So if they fire you for having 60 attendance points you can say that they were supposed to do it at 4.5.
01:08 IsambardPrince; They rely on people who work there not being smart enough to realize that you can file for unemployment income.
01:08 IsambardPrince; :)
01:08 IsambardPrince; They like hiring people from other countries who don't know US employment law.
01:08 IsambardPrince; Like UI, or FMLA.
01:09 Righty; Isn't NEETbux pretty much nothing?
01:09 IsambardPrince; But in my spouse's case I know all kinds of stuff.
01:09 Righty; *close to nothing

18:26 schestowitz[TR2]; but instead we're seeing the formation of a global chinese empire
18:26 schestowitz[TR2]; competing t heory:
18:26 schestowitz[TR2]; people in a free society become complacent
18:26 schestowitz[TR2]; whereas the oppressive ones render the population de facto slaves
18:26 schestowitz[TR2]; like 996
18:26 schestowitz[TR2]; then, they can capture capital
18:27 schestowitz[TR2]; like, have people working for 2 dollars an hour for mass expore
18:27 schestowitz[TR2]; in the long term this can work
18:27 MinceR; this is not complacency
18:27 MinceR; this is authoritarian personality type
18:27 schestowitz[TR2]; it creates a dependence in the free societies
18:27 schestowitz[TR2]; they cannot resist the low price of the slavefarms [sic]
18:27 MinceR; hungarians have spent 14 years under fascist oppression and love it more than ever before
18:27 MinceR; humanity is fucking hopeless and worthless
18:27 schestowitz[TR2]; so they send capitals or invest (in capital) in those systems
18:27 schestowitz[TR2]; like gettinf drunk on russian oil and gas
18:28 schestowitz[TR2]; or asking putin to help make nuclear power plants
18:28 MinceR; we need AI not to generate bullshit but to exterminate and replace this worthless scum species with an actually intelligent one
18:28 schestowitz[TR2]; then they become dependent
18:28 schestowitz[TR2]; MinceR: we don't have ai
18:28 schestowitz[TR2]; we have ml
18:28 schestowitz[TR2]; and it's... interesting
18:28 schestowitz[TR2]; with many limitations
18:28 schestowitz[TR2]; LLMs are neither
18:29 MinceR; AI has many branches
18:29 schestowitz[TR2]; LLMs are just some probbability models with textual strings
18:29 MinceR; so are our brains
18:29 MinceR; even the working ones
18:29 MinceR; neural networks
18:29 *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed)
18:29 MinceR; and we can implement those in silicon
18:29 schestowitz[TR2]; and some brinding together with syntactic rules
18:29 schestowitz[TR2]; grammatical contraints
18:29 schestowitz[TR2]; that's now how human brains work
18:30 *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights
18:30 schestowitz[TR2]; when i saw a sentence i don't bvuild a graph of words
18:30 MinceR; LLMs learn those rules
18:30 schestowitz[TR2]; nor do you
18:30 MinceR; we can't explain how we interpret sentences, and afaik neither can LLMs
18:30 schestowitz[TR2]; no, they do not learn
18:30 schestowitz[TR2]; they train
18:30 MinceR; same thing
18:30 schestowitz[TR2]; and the rules are implicit
18:30 schestowitz[TR2]; or enforced like their censorship model
18:30 schestowitz[TR2]; to avoid saying very racist things
18:30 MinceR; the rules are implicit in us as well
18:31 MinceR; that's why our languages tend to be such illogical messes
18:31 schestowitz[TR2]; not all
18:31 schestowitz[TR2]; some talk precisely
18:31 schestowitz[TR2]; not orbanian mess
