| 03:16:16 | <@hook54321> | looking around at credit cards, and it's crazy to me how some people have like 13 cards, that seems more trouble to manage than it's worth. |
| 03:17:24 | <fireonlive> | i just be sure to keep the 4 i have constantly maxed out :c |
| 03:21:02 | <fireonlive> | ok not that bad but ooof i'm super bad at money lol |
| 03:23:31 | <@hook54321> | i was raised to basically think "credit cards bad", so i've never been in debt. and they can be bad for some people, but unfortunately a credit score is kinda necessary, at least in the US, |
| 03:25:11 | <Doranwen> | I was raised to never buy anything on credit card that I couldn't pay off that month - and to always pay it off. |
| 03:25:38 | <Doranwen> | As a result, I've actually made money on the credit card companies, lol - they give these rewards for this and that, and it's like "yay, free money" because I've never paid them a cent of interest on any bill. |
| 03:32:03 | <@hook54321> | my parents hate putting anything on a credit card period. they strictly go with dave ramsey's advice on it. |
| 03:41:12 | <fireonlive> | i've been told the same as Doranwen but the impulse purchases to "make me happy" (very temporarily) win out.. |
| 03:42:03 | <fireonlive> | starbucks in the morning? sure |
| 03:42:09 | <fireonlive> | adds up though... |
| 03:50:55 | <Doranwen> | hook54321: We only use ours to extend the point at which we have to actually pay for it - let the credit card companies pay first and we hold onto our money for longer - but we make sure to always pay it off that month. They will not make money on me. |
| 03:51:29 | <Doranwen> | Of course, they want to offer me more credit and all that stuff because my record looks good. |

| 04:25:26 | <za3k> | Well, I tried mwaw2html, and it doesn't look like the output is reasonable to me, unfortauntely. |
| 04:25:33 | <za3k> | Did you spot that I posted the actual file? |
| 04:26:28 | <za3k> | anyway, i'm guessing it might not actually be 'mwaw' format |
| 04:27:11 | <za3k> | either that or libmwaw is /very/ not up to task? |
| 04:27:45 | <za3k> | https://germinate.za3k.com/pub/tmp/mwaw-converted.html |
| 04:29:46 | <za3k> | But I appreciate the try |
| 04:29:52 | <za3k> | Much farther than I got |
| 04:34:55 | <pabs> | the old libreoffice option is probably the next best option |
| 04:36:16 | <za3k> | i was thinking of just trying a mac emulator, but i'm not convinced this is actually written in MORE |
| 04:37:33 | <thuban> | i believe the libreoffice filter just used libmwaw, so you may not have any more success with it |
| 04:37:41 | <za3k> | Yeah that was also my theory |
| 04:37:52 | <za3k> | The dependency certainly suggests it |
| 04:38:14 | <za3k> | But maybe it used it a smarter way than mwaw2html uses it? |
| 04:38:59 | <pabs> | worth a try at least |
| 04:39:13 | <thuban> | as for your other suggestion, i think it more likely that it is MORE and libmwaw just doesn't handle it that well (mathtype, etc) than that it's something else |
| 04:39:33 | <za3k> | Maybe I should see if an emulator works, then. |
| 04:43:48 | <za3k> | I tried the writerperfect programs as well. I can give Libreoffice 5 a try, but that will probably need a different OS |
| 04:45:56 | <thuban> | emulation seems worth a try. (it's freeware now: http://outliners.scripting.com/more31.html. i'm not 100% sure whether more 3 can read more 2 files, but it seems likely) |
| 04:48:15 | <thuban> | alternatively, if you have access to a latter-day mac, you might try grabbing a copy of omnioutliner (this being by far the most recent software to have supported this format) |
| 04:49:21 | | etnguyen03 quits [Client Quit] |
| 04:50:00 | <thuban> | beyond that, there are a few things you could attempt, but it kind of depends on what you're trying to get out of it, which is unclear to me given that this is a famous book for which many other sources exist. early draft? historical interest? |
| 04:50:43 | <za3k> | Drexler wants to put it online in a format accessible to e-readers |
| 04:52:31 | <za3k> | It seems plausible to me that good OCR and a human editor might be easier than converting formats, but I'm not the person directly involved, just the person they asked "hey, how do we convert this?" |
| 04:53:12 | <thuban> | huh, i kind of assumed there would be a complete ebook edition already. that seems plausible to me too |
| 04:53:26 | <za3k> | There is an OCR-ed pdf on archive.org |
| 04:53:46 | <za3k> | But I assume it's inaccurate and (relative to a correct epub version) quite large and hard to reflow, etc |
| 04:54:07 | <thuban> | slap it through calibre, ship it, nanoscale viable product |
| 04:55:35 | <za3k> | :) |
| 04:55:46 | <za3k> | it it was me posting it i would |
| 04:55:55 | <za3k> | anyway i'm off, thanks for help |

| 05:14:15 | <Doranwen> | za3k: I'm running LibreOffice 5 on this comp, lol, not sure that would help you any. |
| 05:14:35 | <Doranwen> | 5.1.6.2, to be exact |
| 05:15:12 | <fireonlive> | hmm, you could try to open this file: https://germinate.za3k.com/pub/tmp/TechBook.sent.Feb92__GPa-fix.Feb92__GPa-fix.Feb92__GPa-fi |
| 05:15:34 | <fireonlive> | should be 'mwaw' format |
| 05:18:38 | <Doranwen> | I told it to open with LibreOffice in general (no idea on extension or anything, I used curl to dump it to a file I just called "book" for lack of anything better) and it opened in Writer with a lot of garbage symbols. Perhaps an extension on it might tell LO what to do with it? |
| 05:19:29 | <Doranwen> | There was a little actual text but it all ended up like two pages long when all was said and done. I have a feeling most of that wasn't opened properly. |
| 05:20:02 | <Doranwen> | Is the extension actually mwaw? |
| 05:24:38 | <fireonlive> | hmm looks like it might not have used an extension? but not too sure.. maybe thuban would know more |
| 05:27:12 | <thuban> | macs of that era didn't use extensions, filetype data was stored in the resource fork |
| 05:28:57 | <Doranwen> | Gotcha. No worries, I just wondered if there was any better way to tell LO what to do with it. |
| 05:29:02 | <Doranwen> | It didn't handle it well. |
| 05:31:31 | <Doranwen> | It honestly worked better just trying to open it in an old Firefox browser than in Writer. |

| 17:51:13 | <fireonlive> | or so it said when i opened firefox |
| 18:10:04 | <fireonlive> | ah! got my personal appeal: https://transfer.archivete.am/inline/TsGCc/1689703751.png |
| 18:13:24 | <nukke> | tbf VPNs are a must-have when using public wifi |
| 18:13:36 | <nukke> | So airports, hotels, restaurants |
| 18:14:05 | <nukke> | Especially if flying to a country with "unique" laws |
| 18:14:33 | <joepie91|m> | ehhhh |
| 18:14:59 | <joepie91|m> | there are some circumstances where using a VPN service is an improvement over not doing so, but "public wifi" categorically is not one of them |
| 18:15:22 | <joepie91|m> | nearly everything uses TLS nowadays and your exposure even to an actively malicious wifi AP will be very limited |
| 18:16:25 | <joepie91|m> | 'dubious laws' could be a valid reason though |
| 18:16:32 | <spirit> | is there an public url archive site that lets one spoof the referrer? |
| 18:16:44 | <joepie91|m> | but then it isn't limited to wifi |
| 18:16:51 | <@JAA> | You're assuming it isn't hijacking DNS traffic. Browsers still don't try HTTPS first unless it's a known or recently visited site. |
| 18:17:43 | <spirit> | and you never know if the wifi is set up with AP isolation etc |
| 18:18:54 | <joepie91|m> | that seems like an argument for https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere/set-https-default-your-browser, not for VPN services |
| 18:18:58 | <@JAA> | (Firefox in private windows does, but other browsers don't to my knowledge.) |
| 18:19:32 | <nicolas17> | I think Firefox also tries https if http doesn't work |
| 18:19:34 | <fireonlive> | ye, depending on where i'm doing maybe i shouldn't open grindr over default-dns |
| 18:19:49 | <@JAA> | SNI will expose the hostname anyway. |
| 18:20:01 | <@JAA> | RIP ESNI |
| 18:20:01 | <fireonlive> | true |
| 18:20:02 | <nicolas17> | which is really annoying when I try to load http://192.168.0.1 and it fails, and it tries https, and it also fails |
| 18:20:03 | <fireonlive> | rip |
| 18:20:17 | <nicolas17> | then when my router finally finishes rebooting, I press F5 and it doesn't work because it's trying https |
| 18:20:28 | <fireonlive> | nicolas17: safari takes it a step further and adds www. :D |
| 18:20:35 | <fireonlive> | www.192.168.0.1 anyone? |
| 18:20:38 | | icedice quits [Ping timeout: 265 seconds] |
| 18:20:38 | <nicolas17> | /o\ |
| 18:20:39 | <fireonlive> | 🤦 |
| 18:21:03 | <@JAA> | nicolas17: My router redirects to a provider subdomain that resolves to 192.168.1.1 iff you use the router's DNS and serves a TLS cert valid for the domain. |
| 18:21:29 | <@JAA> | If you resolve the subdomain directly with a recursive resolver, it goes into the abyss. |
| 18:21:42 | <@JAA> | So I have to use https://192.168.1.1/ and ignore the cert warning. |
| 18:21:57 | <nicolas17> | does that mean your router has the private key for that cert? |
| 18:22:08 | <joepie91|m> | (SNI is why I mentioned that in a country with dubious laws, the problem is not limited to wifi) |
| 18:22:13 | <@JAA> | I can't imagine it doesn't. |
| 18:22:21 | <fireonlive> | is it like unique? |
| 18:22:29 | <fireonlive> | <customer-id>.isp.example |
| 18:23:12 | <nicolas17> | extract the private key and get the cert revoked |
| 18:23:55 | <fireonlive> | but first cause some disturbance in #dev-security-policy with a nice blog post |
| 18:23:57 | <fireonlive> | :D |
| 18:24:22 | <@JAA> | fireonlive: No, it's something like 'router.provider.tld'. |
| 18:24:37 | <fireonlive> | ahh interesting |
| 18:25:01 | <fireonlive> | there's been a lot of those 'coming out of the woodwork' with applications needing to talk to the local machine over the years that haven't worked out well |
| 18:26:02 | <@JAA> | I'm not really sure *why* they're doing TLS either. You're in the local network, connected via Ethernet or secure WiFi. Like, what exactly is the attack vector here? |
| 18:26:26 | <fireonlive> | arp spoofing! |
| 18:26:34 | <fireonlive> | but yeah lol |
| 18:26:56 | <fireonlive> | wonder if they need a https-only feature (unlikely) or just wanted that 'not secure' warning to go away |
| 18:28:04 | <@JAA> | Those features usually exempt local IPs anyway. |
| 18:28:16 | <fireonlive> | hmm thought it was just localhost |
| 18:28:18 | <nicolas17> | I think there is an exemption specifically for 127.0.0.1 and ::1 |
| 18:28:57 | <@JAA> | Hmm |
| 18:29:30 | <@JAA> | I never had issues before the router update in Firefox private windows, which does have HTTPS first enabled. |
| 18:29:58 | <fireonlive> | ah they probably don't use any of the gated features |
| 18:30:05 | <@JAA> | I see there's a dom.security.https_only_mode.upgrade_local config option. |
| 18:30:06 | <nicolas17> | ah no I'm mixing things up |
| 18:30:15 | <fireonlive> | can't remember what's https onlyatm other than stuff like webgpu maybe |
| 18:30:20 | <fireonlive> | oh and location |
| 18:30:48 | <nicolas17> | there is an exemption to allow https websites to do XHR to 127.0.0.1 and ::1 without "mixed content warning" issues, since otherwise companies were doing cursed stuff to get TLS there |
| 18:31:23 | <@JAA> | Ah, interesting. |
| 18:31:24 | <fireonlive> | joepie91|m: is there a good garbage collection method that you know of? AFAICT all we can do is just wait and see, and even then it seems that they may not be able to find out which files are exactly dereferenced in encrypted chats since the file IDs are also encrypted... |
| 18:31:32 | <nicolas17> | like desktop.spotify.com or something resolving to 127.0.0.1, having a valid signed TLS certificate, and the private key embedded in the client |
| 18:31:35 | <joepie91|m> | fireonlive: (cont.) https://social.pixie.town/@joepie91/110730931784937039 |
| 18:31:42 | <fireonlive> | thanks :) |
| 18:32:10 | <fireonlive> | like i'm pretty sure i sent a 300MB test file at one point and then 'deleted' it in a encrypted chat but lol it's stuck there unless i go digging (though that one is easy to find) |
| 18:32:34 | <nicolas17> | which got revoked as soon as someone extracted the private key |
| 18:32:50 | <fireonlive> | the private key is gone, but AIUI the actual blob is there |
| 18:33:01 | <fireonlive> | and taking up space in /var/lib/synapse |
| 18:33:21 | <fireonlive> | oh |
| 18:33:25 | <fireonlive> | mixing myself up |
| 18:33:39 | <@JAA> | nicolas17: Sounds like I have a fun challenge ahead of me on a slow day. :-) |
| 18:33:41 | <fireonlive> | the spotify thing was fun :D |
| 18:34:31 | <fireonlive> | i think out of that event and people finding lots of stuff that did that sort of thing digicert even created an automated revoke the cert if you have the private key API |
| 18:34:49 | <fireonlive> | but it's been a while since i was balls to the wall in on the CA space drama |
| 18:35:03 | <fireonlive> | partially why i made the rss channel so i could kinda watch it from afar lol |
| 18:36:55 | <fireonlive> | 7 years! |
| 18:37:04 | <fireonlive> | for a sound change o_O |

| 18:37:57 | <fireonlive> | people are hailing element-x, the total rewrite (at least for iOS?) as the saviour of element but oof i imagine that's going to have the same "internal" problems too |
| 18:38:09 | <fireonlive> | internal-organizational problems |
| 18:40:55 | | joepie91|m remembers RiotX |
| 18:41:05 | <joepie91|m> | which was the previous total rewrite that was gonna fix all the issues honest I swear |
| 18:41:12 | <joepie91|m> | this became Element |
| 18:41:22 | <joepie91|m> | admittedly iOS got skipped over for that but uhhh |
| 18:41:35 | <joepie91|m> | the problems are really not just in the code but in the processes |
| 18:43:14 | <joepie91|m> | (I should note that this is not subtweeting them; I've told the Element people this to their face a long time ago, and to their credit they've tried to make changes but I don't think they've really pulled it off, and the lack of transparency and community interaction is a big part of that I think) |
| 18:43:41 | <joepie91|m> | 'to their face' sounds a bit more aggressive than that was intended 😅 |
| 18:48:44 | <joepie91|m> | but yeah, bottom line, even though Matrix itself has a lot of potential, and the general goals of focus on UX and such are good, I don't have a lot of faith in Element being the ones to pull it off |
| 18:50:56 | <joepie91|m> | also, obligatory sidenote that even with these issues, Element is still making more progress in mainstream adoptability than I've seen XMPP or IRC do in years... |
| 18:52:49 | <fireonlive> | ahh riotx eh lmao |
| 18:53:14 | <fireonlive> | yeah that's fair on the progress front |
| 18:54:06 | <fireonlive> | i use it with a friend or a two and the big pain point â„¢ at the moment is just sharing stuff to element (share sheets) and stuff like bigger videos where it says share it directly in the app or it'll look like poop |
