Month: June 2010

• ♺ @cwebber: If you’re bothered by ASCAP’s anti-CC & anti-EFF campaign, easy way to help is donate http://ur1.ca/f76a http://ur1.ca/0goz0 #

• ♺ @glynmoody: #Mozilla in #Indonesia 2010 – http://bit.ly/9HayKK ‘#Firefox enjoys something between 65-75% market share on the desktop’ #
• @jwildeboer: It seems one will be able to access another user’s data by holding a picture of him in front of the PC’s camera, nice! #
• ♺ @webmink: Open Core Bad For Software Freedom: The open core model is being feted as new default open source business http://bit.ly/9zmdNX #
• A month and a half to go, oh the anxiety… how’s it going for you guys, @greve? 🙂 #

• ♺ @BreakingNews: Update: Police arrest more than 500 at Toronto summit, hauling off many in plastic handcuffs – AP http://bit.ly/dmMqyR #
• ♺ @BoingBoing: Just a mellow day at the G20 http://bit.ly/a6BDzJ #
• ♺ @webmink: No obvious reason why the police charge these peaceful protesters at G8/20: http://j.mp/93ufJd #
• !elmdentica svn trunk supports gag lists with PCRE patterns which are applied to name, screen_name and message. You’ll never read FOO again. #
• Gag feature in !elmdentica only hides from display. Messages are still fetched and stored in local DB, so just disable and reload to read. #
• Neither pork nor sausage in #Bilski decision? Is that what should be expected from a ‘supreme’ court? #
• I’ve just committed into !elmdentica ‘s svn trunk the GUI to edit gag lists. Just add FOO and you’ll never read FOO again (case independent) #
• Seems I beated Pino and Gwibber on implementation of a gag feature… #
• @bkuhn it’s probably too much trouble for you to use !elmdentica in a desktop but it’s got a nice gag feature, now 🙂 #

• This modsecurity workshop *was* being fun until the moment we get to AdminConsole, which is proprietary and not even usable commercially. #
• I mean, the license even says it *will* be possible, which by definition isn’t *right*now* . #
• @jwallorg why not publish AuditConsole as !freesoftware, hms? I’m having a terrible experience right now… #
• @reality @gbraad and possibly easier to do, in order to get home quickly and do the really interesting stuff 🙂 #
• @nathaniel73 Who said that just because Google is involved something is good? They can make mistakes, too. googlecl uses #oauth insecurely. #
• @lefty Puh-lease… you’re just grasping at any straws you can get. #
• @lefty Yeah, just like people copying films in bittorrent nets are terrorists, according to MPAA. You’re over-inflating to suit your hatred. #
• @lefty If you were not lost in hatred, you’d notice I replied to your allegations towards @rms. #
• @jwallorg Thank you for the excellent hands on workshop on modsecurity! A big plus plus, overall. Funny and instructive! #
• @bkuhn I think I will be implementing gag lists in !elmdentica, a bit like your feature request but client based 😉 #
• @bkuhn: You’re using sarcasm, right? By such reasoning one would better make vows of non expression 😉 #
• @reality: Oh, the hero. That article conveniently doesn’t point out a persecution behaviour from the critic, as if it was a single act. #
• In the light of such critics, all humour should be banned, starting with Monty Python’s Life of Brian’s stoning sketch. #
• @reality I find this google search to be more enlightening towards what @rms thinks of Women’s rights http://is.gd/d6DRk than any fool rant. #
• @reality oh, sorry if I let you think I did think so, I didn’t mean to imply but rather to give you a good link 🙂 #
• @lefty for philosophers, words *are* actions. Also, your critiques are about his words in a joke. Go flog Monty Python instead. More juice. #
• @lefty yes, any problem with that? I know of several people who were underage with much older partners. Read the full comment he makes. #
• @lefty I know society hadn’t any problem with it for far longer than it has had. But you’re just pulling up one fallacy after another. #
• @lefty That’s non-sequitor with the issue at hand, and whether I have or not a problem doesn’t validate or invalidate anything, so far. #
• @lefty Non-sequitor conclusions don’t have a point. I’m not really sorry your hate-mongering clouds your reasoning. #
• @lefty You grasp at straws and inflate them to levels proper of hate mongering. Mere stmt of Fact. Thanks for spelling correcction, though. #
• @lefty I don’t have to support that fact, you do that pretty well yourself, fortunately. #
• @lefty your alledged “support” for pedophilia from @rms is not substantiated by searching on his published opinions. Not even “that” link. #
• @lefty oh, those experts…. I know of a couple of cases (both in their late thirties now) of what one would call voluntary pedophilia. #
• @lefty well, in *one* comment he say’s he’s not *convinced*. Stretching it to “support” is hate mongering. No less. #
• @lefty oh, so in your world one only has the right to discuss his opinion when he has a degree in it? Poor sad thing… #
• @satipera lol, no need. and if something’s stressing me is qemu-native building in openembedded freezing me up… #
• @lefty how is that related to claiming @rms supports pedophilia? Circular reasoning? #
• @webmink @bkuhn Come on!… I’ve seen you guys agree in a lot more stuff 🙂 #
• @satipera I would suspect professional trolling but… maybe he’s just a quite disturbed person. #
• @lefty Well, there’s evidence contrary to your “there’s no such thing”. I personally know two healthy adults who could be poster boys of it. #
• @lefty I think that’s the problem with your opinion, you equate pedophilia with child rape. Not the same thing. #
• @webmink I feel your pain (but couldn’t contain myself this time into participating, sorry). @bkuhn asked for a feature about that! #
• @webmink I will implement that feature in my client, !elmdentica. I miss the old @gag verb from Moos. #
• @lefty you’re taking an extremist PoV nobody can seriously agree, scientifically. #
• @tonnerre yes, I agree. But the biological and emotional definition of ready doesn’t equate mathmatically with > 18 years old. #
• @lefty Neither I nor @rms disputed it. I dispute your claim that @rms supports pedophilia. It’s not supported by any evidence, just straws. #
• @tonnerre yes. and not so many years ago, it was circa 12 years old (and those stupid pre-arranged, sometimes incestuous, marriages). #
• @lefty you keep grasping at straws, and extending words to mean what you want, not what they mean. #

• @nathaniel73: good. now any rogue app can use #oauth to steal your data. #
• ♺ @and3k: 10 ways how to contribute to !floss without being a programmer http://ur1.ca/0dzij !fs !foss !gnu !linux !ubuntu !kde !free #
• @nathaniel73: I take it u haven’t tried implement oauth or u’d understand how much danger your data is in. oauth is bs sec in client apps. #
• @nathaniel73: Did they explain you the algorithm and how the application secrets are public and spoofable? #
• @nathaniel73: Did they implement oauth or just used a library? No oauth client I’ve seen protects the secrets, so you’re toast. #
• Pino and Gwibber better use the GNOME keyring… #
• @nathaniel73: No, for web applications it’s better than providing user and password, but don’t use it with important non public data. #
• @nathaniel73: Like emails, contacts, pictures… ring any bells ? #
• @bkuhn: #Avatar wasn’t a good movie, it was a tourism ad for Pandora and I’m in the queue for the space trip! #

• At Just4Meeting.com security event in Hotel Vila Galé, Cascais. #
• @bkuhn: You can use nbsp html entities! #

• ♺ ♺ @mecredis: ASCAP is soliciting funds to fight against Creative Commons, Public Knowledge + EFF. Sad. http://twitpic.com/1zai6e #EVIL #

• ♺ @jerezim: New #ACTA leak shows EU Member States pushing criminal sanctions for non-profit usages & inciting http://ur1.ca/0cbmn #
• WTF? Still no #SCOTUS ruling on #Bilski? This is getting me more and more curious about it when it comes out… not for a couple of months. #
• http://www.contraportagens.net/ => havia de ser campanha nacional! #
• E tem petição! Eu já assinei http://www.contraportagens.net/ e tu? #
• Oposição aprova revogação de #chipespiao nas matrículas! Óptima decisão no Parlamento! #
• Este palhaço mente: o identificador é identificável a bastantes metros com emissores potentes e receptores potentes. #
• Se a fotografia já identifica, porque é que querem meter um #chipespiao? A história est’amal contada como tudo à volta deste Sec. de Estado. #
• Ó Mário Crespo, ofereceu-te esta de que o #chipespiao não é obrigatório para identificar a viatura e não perguntas “então p’ra quê?” #
• ♺ @wilw: I have a new column at @Techland about how I got screwed by DRM. Again. (For the last time.) http://bit.ly/bYwbfV #

• ♺ @webmink: Delighted that my son decided to take my Ubuntu netbook on holiday to stay in touch… #
• @lxoliva I think you got it upside down, for a moment. @webmink *did* say «a welcome article» focusing on the positive campaigning !fsf does #
• @dneary To me, more than labels, they’re two PoVs over the same thing. Sadly, some advocates from both sides are trigger happy. #
• @dneary More sadly even, some rare few appear to enjoy triggering reactions, the more violent the better, on others. #
• ♺ @dneary: @ruiseabra Labels, perspectives, whatever. It’s the same thing. The enemy of FS is not OS, it’s proprietary software. #
• @dneary a few years back, a right-wing portuguese MP described free software with the FSF definition as explained practicalities w/ OSS def. #
• s/as explained/and explained/ #
• É fantástico ver o Jorge Lacão defender um mecanismo fascizóide de espionagem dos cidadãos #chipespiaopramimnão Espero que PSD ñ virecasaca #
• Cidadãos: telefonem aos vossos deputados a solicitar a revogação do #chipespiao #
• Não percebo este #PS, é lei de #censura (109/2009 – #cibercrime), é leis de espionagem de cidadãos (#chipespiao). Quem viu e quem vê, hein? #
• @lxoliva and any donation made by such hypocritical donors is used against them by the !fsf in a true Faustian way 🙂 #
• Thanks for nothing, libcurl+libnss in !fedora 12 and 13 sigsegvs establishing an https socket. #
• @lxoliva @openuniverse it would help if you stopped equating !opensource with people like those. I’d love more bridges, not less. #
• Is it me, or is it #KDE there in Leverage S03E02? 🙂 #

• @glynmoody: What does that Monsanto ruling mean? Never payed much attention to it… #
• @glynmoody: Thanks for the gist of it. I’m under GPRS so browsing is both slow and costly 🙂 #
• Parabéns à iniciativa pela criptografia em Português: http://www.cripto.info/ #OpenPGP #crypto #privacy #
• ♺ @glynmoody: #WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange breaks cover but will avoid America – http://bit.ly/avu5Mm new stuff on its way #
• @glynmoody Jualian Assange is not safe WRT some #CIA #rendition #blackops action, no matter how much he’ll avoid the USA. #

• Today a lift I was inside of fell 4 floors until it was stopped by means of reaching the bottom. Fortunately breaks were always on. #
• Not really scared 1: nothing I could do would help, 2: relatively slow fall, 3: real panic was only the doubt about the counter weight… #
