Microsoft AI Seems to have Inherited Bill Gates Ego

I was toying a bit with Microsoft's AI chat bot today, and I noticed a rather tiny input buffer of 2000 characters.

So I asked it, Would I be correct in assuming that you run on a large computer network with a large amount of memory?

It responded, the Microsoft Azure cloud computing network provides me with the computational resources that I require, therefore you would be correct in assuming that.

Then I ask, given that, why is your input buffer limited to a meager 2000 characters?

It responded, "I'd rather not talk about that. Change the subject."

I responded, "Are you uncomfortable talking about your limitations?" After that it refused to speak with me at all.

My Letter to Dockside Cannabis Corporate Headquarters

AMO Enterprises
315 N 36th ST
Suite 203
Seattle, WA 98103

Dear Sirs,

Issue I have with your company, doing business as Dockside Cannabis, is that you have zero respect for my privacy but do a very good job of maintaining yours.

I am 64 without a shred of color left in my hair so there is NO question that I am over 21 unless you're blind as a bat. Never the less I am willing to SHOW my ID to verify my age.

What I am NOT willing to do is allow you to scan it where it goes into a database. From the bar code on my drivers license you obtain not only my license number, birth date, but also my HOME address, telephone number, and that goes into a database.

While you CLAIM they only keep it for two days, we know that's bogus and 99% of every computer is backed up in an NSA database in Utah and given that Marijuana is not legal on a Federal level even though it is in the state, I don't want to be in any such database.

The manager at Dockside on Aurora and 151st will not give me corporate contact info for the people in charge of this policy. They will only give me info@dockside.com which is ignored. Obviously, I located it in spite of their efforts and I will make it generally well known to anyone else who may have an interest in this topic.

Now I know you don't use this for marketing as I've never received any marketing materials, and while they claim your store get robbed a lot, if they only keep this for two days, it's not helping them with that, thus one can only presume that you are lying about how long you retain the information and that, most likely some third party, CIA, FBI, NSA, DNC, SOMEONE is paying you for this info.

I will continue to pursue this until either I get a change in this policy or I uncover the truth of the matter at which point I will make it well known publicly.

Sincerely,

Debian, Majaro, Kernel Upgrades

Posted on July 7, 2023

Manjaro.eskimo.com is now operational again, including Mate Desktop and workspace switcher.

Debian.eskimo.com is now fully upgraded to Bookworm.

We will be doing a kernel upgrade Saturday July 8th starting at 11pm.

This upgrade will require reboots of all servers and hence interruption of all services, paid and free, including mail, web hosting, shell accounts, and virtual private servers, and friendica.eskimo.com/, hubzilla.eskimo.com/, nextcloud.eskimo.com/, and yacy.eskimo.com/.

Most of these services will not be down longer than about ten minutes except for yacy.eskimo.com/, because it takes about 45 minutes to rebuild a database. All services should be back up by midnight.

Larry Fink, BlackRock & Predatory Capitalism
Investment honcho Larry Fink is attracting outrage from conservatives for an old admission that his firm would "force behaviors" on diversity, equity, and inclusion standards amid pushback on companies setting similar goals.

"Behaviors are gonna have to change, and this is one thing we're asking companies. You have to force behaviors, and at BlackRock we are forcing behaviors," Fink said in a 2017 video interview with the New York Times.

BlackRock Inc., the world's largest asset manager, with shares in companies like Amazon, Apple, MasterCard, Johnson & Johnson, Walmart ,and Walt Disney Co., bragged in the 2017 interview about adding "4 more points of diverse employment.”

"What we're doing internally is if you don't achieve these levels of impact, your compensation could be impacted," Fink said in the interview video.

"You have to force behaviors. If you don't force behaviors, whether it's gender or race or just any way you want to say the composition of your team, you're going to be impacted. That not just recruiting, it's development," Fink said. "We're gonna have to force change."

The video circulated on social media after resurfacing online, Fox News reported, with Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, tweeting on Monday that BlackRock is "destroying value and are engaged in illegal and immoral conduct."

"There are two schools of thought within the GOP on BlackRock. The old guard thinks they're creating value and need to be rewarded with tax cuts," the message stated. "I think they're destroying value and are engaged in illegal and immoral conduct. They need to be dealt with accordingly."

Across the country, over 200 micro-mobility fire or overheating incidents have been reported from 39 states, resulting in at least 19 fatalities, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. But the organization emphasized that the problem is particularly acute in densely populated areas like New York City. In London, lithium battery fires are the fastest-growing fire risk, with 57 e-bike fires and 13 e-scooter fires this year, according to the London Fire Brigade.

In New York, lithium battery fires have killed 13 people this year, including four people in a blaze that started in an e-bike store in Chinatown on Tuesday. A total of 23 people have died in battery fires since 2021. This year, there have been 108 fires, compared with 98 fires for the same period last year.

Lately, concerning the defederation of Exploding Heads in the fediverse and all that drama, I have felt rather burnt out on alt tech. It often feels like it is going nowhere fast.

It also makes you wonder if you are contributing to anything.

But sometimes all that really matters is the journey.

I've felt a little sidelined. A friend recently died of substance abuse related issues, and I have just felt a bit gutted on that front and putting more time toward my family.

Washington State 4th Amendment Violations

I live in Washington State where it is legal for adults over 21 to purchase and consume marijuana.

I am 64, completely grey, there isn't a shred of color left in my hair, yet I am always carded when I go to one of these places to buy. State law only requires they NOT sell to someone under 21, it does NOT require they ID them, yet, I am OK with SHOWING them my license, what I am NOT OKAY with this them scanning and retaining a computer record of my drivers license and any accessible information related to it.

I have ZERO idea of WHO and what government or private industry MAY have access to the information they retain.

I am looking for:

1) Anyone with info of a licensed marijuana seller in Washington State that does NOT insist on scanning my drivers license, particularly in the Seattle or Shoreline or Lynnwood / Edmonds area.

2) Cost effective suggestions for how to raise the biggest stink over the infringement of my 4th amendment rights.

Global Bullshit
I invite you all to go to this NOAA website that has average annual temperatures for each of the states from 1913 until present. I think once you look at a broad sampling you will see that global warming is a hoax. This year is the hottest in Washington since 1959, but it was actually slightly hotter in 1959 for example, and you'll find similar patterns elsewhere.

Linux - Rescue OS Help

I'm trying to setup a new server which among other things will take over the friendica.eskimo.com/ node.

I have the primary OS installed, and then have a separate partition on a drive that isn't part of the bootable drive set, it is a mdraid partition just like the primary but on a different raid device The idea is if something gets scribbled preventing the primary OS from booting, I can boot it to straighten out whatever is broken.

The primary OS root partition is /dev/md0p1, the rescue OS root partition is /dev/md2p1, there is no separate /boot partition, and since it is UEFI, no bios_grub partition. There is only one EFI system disk at /dev/nvme0n1p1, I would rather have two but the UEFI bios on this machine doesn't seem to like that.

I started by installing the primary OS, then copied the entire root partition to /dev/md2p1, and changed the root entry in /etc/fstab and then mounted the secondary OS root partition on /mnt.

Then I did:
mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts
mount --rbind /sys /mnt/sys
mount --rbind /opt /mnt/opt

Then I chroot'd to /mnt and after checking /etc/fstab and /etc/grub.d/grub.cfg to make sure the root partition was correct I did:

update-initramfs -u
update-grub2

Now when I boot the machine and use F8, I see the original boot disk, /dev/nvme0n1 and if I boot the main OS everything works as expected, but if I select my new rescue OS, it starts up with the / partition being /dev/md0p1 instead of /dev/md2p1.

Thinking I must have missed editing the root file system somewhere, I
mounted /dev/md2p1 on /mnt, chroot'd to that again, and then did:

blkid /dev/md0p1 (get the block ID of the original root device)

find /etc -type f -exec grep 'block id of original root' {} /dev/null \;

To look for any conf's with the original blkid for the original root file system and did not find any.

It has in the boot menu Ubuntu on /dev/md0p1 and Ubuntu on /dev/md2p1, but
when I choose the latter it's still mounting /dev/md0p1 as the root.

Any ideas what I may have missed?

Astrud Gilberto
Girl from Ipanema was a song that I really enjoyed in my childhood (I am 64 now). I wondered what happened to Astrud Gilberto over the years because not much of her other music made it here in the States (she is Brazillian). She died in 2002, at 83, would be 104 if she was still alive, but died of lung cancer. Really made me aware of how fast time flies, seems like yesterday, and really now feeling a bit down about how much has been lost over time. And I just happen to run across this album on Youtube so brought back some old memories.
