  • ♺ @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! #

  • 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?” #

  • @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. #

  • 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: Huge Victory: Court Rules For YouTube Against Viacom http://bit.ly/9psa11 fantastic but let’s get appeal done bfr celebrating #

  • @lefty: I think that matters little compared to other dynamics at the operator level. !freesoftware goes against the interest of many. #
  • @lefty: only with proprietary drivers, though. 🙁 you know if moorestown will be any better in that regard? #
  • Fuck! ♺ @JMF1957: RT @Jerusalem_Post: Barak off to US for Iran talks: American, Israeli warships reportedly cross Suez. http://bit.ly/badkNx #
  • @lefty: incremental better than nothing. But if u never complain about other half u’ll never get it. Glad some remind us we’re not there yet #
  • @lefty: that has not been the pattern so far. exceptions here and there, but overall we have improved, so I don’t buy your pessimism. #
  • @jmcesteves: are you saying, then, that it is a normal action ? #
  • ♺ @mvalente: Aparentemente ninguém grama as vuvuzelas. Mas então "apitam" sozinhas ou há uma sociedade secreta de apita-vuvuzelas? #
  • @lefty: I don’t see GNOME fits those devices, maybe I’m stoopid or missed some sikrit. #
  • @lefty: that’s a matter of money and alliances. #
  • @lefty: I know about them, I just don’t think they got what it takes and I don’t see them getting it. #
  • @lxoliva: hehe thanks 🙂 #
  • @lefty: and still you don’t see the missing money link ? #

  • @brubaker: wtf ? you compare an excellent adaptation with two junk movies ? in the same class? #
  • ♺ @brubaker: History of Violence was a great film. But then, it’s Cronenberg, so it has an advantage. Also, a great script. #
  • ♺ @zoobab: Consensus-Oriented Specification System, by Pieter Hintjens, mentions patents and OOXML fraud: http://ur1.ca/09wtp #

  • @jdub: not really, unless made by truly unbiased people, as recognized by both parties, who understand the issue. Else, it’s self serving. #
  • @jdub: a really whiny and truly biased one was made up by @lefty some time ago. Not a good example, and a bridge burner. Mind what you wish. #
  • @schestowitz: meego and freedom? not really… #
  • @schestowitz: I compare android and meego with !openmoko WRT freedom.Both the formers are quite in the ‘lacking’ category. #
  • @jdub: Perhaps I do. But then… I don’t like injustice and react to it. Not enough cold blood in the veins? Maybe. #
  • But then… I try to walk the talk. Been posting from !elmdentica in !openmoko !freerunner running !shrproject with gprs. Main phone, too! #
  • @crispassinato: who are you ? #
  • @lefty: Like talking about yourself in the third person a little bit too much, dude. #
  • @RuiSeabra: any chance you could replace the graphic card? Years ago I destroyed an nvidia graphics card I bought, in protest. Replaced it. #
  • @lefty: Sure, and I’m glad I, at least, make you laugh, dude. #
  • @lefty: That’s more of a problem with gtk and current hw, I think. E17 works much better with low resources hw. #
