The PEB wording did indeed say use the time as you wish, although it did also say how long (optional) screen breaks were as well as the time allocated for download/upload. My view is the wording was not clear. The decision on how to deal with the extra time is out of my hands and [02:04] schestowitz all I can do is put a recommendation from the Examining team before the PEB GB. [02:04] schestowitz Finals candidates are usually a pass or fail regardless of the time taken because they either do or don't demonstrate that they know what they are doing. However, the upshot of this is that, next year, I suspect timings will be far stricter.

[03:17] schestowitz Rianne reckons he's himself a victim of sexual abuse as a kid. But that's just a theory. [03:27] Techrights-sec Well he is definitely trolling the channel with some goal in mind. [03:27] Techrights-sec You must be getting close to some important material in the blog posts, [03:27] Techrights-sec if he is increasing his attacks. [03:27] Techrights-sec The attacks take the channel off topic. [03:28] schestowitz it's very much possible he does not like the digging into red hat, where he worked. I just ignore him to avoid time-wasting. he digs his own grave sometimes, then retracts when he realises he comes across as a pervert. [03:32] Techrights-sec His trolling somehow seems connected to some corporate politics, but [03:32] Techrights-sec I could not guess which one(s). [03:33] schestowitz I have just checked his twitter account (in Firefox, needs JS). Seems misguided and the mind isn't working properly anymore. [03:34] Techrights-sec Lots can cause that. Several problems at once can have negative [03:34] Techrights-sec synergistic effects. Illegal drugs among them but other traumas too. [03:34] schestowitz I was going to say trauma and you beat me to it. Like I say, I try to avoid the time-wasting, no censorship necessary. [03:40] Techrights-sec Back on topic, the current US politics are being used as a vehicle [03:40] Techrights-sec to gain acceptance for mass censorship. [03:40] Techrights-sec Everyone is cheering the bans so enthusiastically that almost no one [03:40] Techrights-sec is actually checking to ensure that it is in line with the constitution. [03:40] Techrights-sec It is more than what Bush II called it, a "goddamned piece of paper" [03:44] Techrights-sec With Mozilla pretending to be a large business yet all the while being [03:44] Techrights-sec 100% dependent on Google's money for its continued existence, [03:44] Techrights-sec it is in a very weird place and with very weird priorities. [03:44] Techrights-sec Fans of their software might not see that and incorrectly [03:44] Techrights-sec projecct their own values even when they clearly do not apply, [03:44] Techrights-sec Take the Mozilla CEO compensation scandal for example of misplaced [03:44] Techrights-sec priorities. [03:45] schestowitz Techrights covered this scandal (I also posted that IRS filing, in part, many times in social control media, as image) a year before it became a public scandal, due to the layoffs...

[03:48] Techrights-sec Dangerously the 'last' independent web browser and one of the last e-mail [03:48] Techrights-sec clients depend on them. [03:49] schestowitz While it's tempting to write articles (or do videos) about it the outcome would become political and be subjected to tribal assessments that overlooks facts. Pocock covered this in past this week. [03:51] Techrights-sec YEs, it's not a priority at the moment. [03:51] Techrights-sec It's just always in the back of my mind when I use Thunderbird or [03:51] Techrights-sec when, daily, I run into more sites that have trouble with Firefox. [03:52] schestowitz Yesterday thunderbird asked me to upload my attachments (personal documents like IDs) to Box! [03:53] Techrights-sec I'm still on a very old version. I am worried about what shocks will [03:53] Techrights-sec arrive with the newer versions. ● Jan 09 [05:12] *schestowitz has quit (Quit: Konversation term) [05:12] *schestowitz__ (~schestowi@unaffiliated/schestowitz) has joined #techbytes ● Jan 09 [09:18] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [09:19] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [09:28] *hhallelui has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) ● Jan 09 [12:06] *rianne (~rianne@host81-152-238-156.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [12:06] *liberty_box (~liberty@host81-152-238-156.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [12:20] *schestowitz__ has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [12:20] *schestowitz (~schestowi@unaffiliated/schestowitz) has joined #techbytes [12:48] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) [12:48] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) ● Jan 09 [15:26] *rianne (~rianne@host81-152-238-156.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [15:26] *liberty_box (~liberty@host81-152-238-156.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [15:28] Techrights-sec CPU is loaded [15:28] schestowitz yes, I am not sure why.
