beginning of new day, August 6

00:00 ulf; need a break, repaired several dozen of builds today

00:05 britney; ulf, would you ever eat dry roasted crickets?

00:08 britney; i would also carefully watch anyone who seems to like them because that person could be a reptilian

00:09 britney; if someone likes eating crickets, either they are a reptilian or just a weird human

00:13 britney; eating a pound of crickets is more nutritious than a pound of beef

00:13 britney; 3 times more nutritious

00:16 schestowitz[TR2]; britney: why do you push this bullshit here?

00:16 schestowitz[TR2]; to discredit us?

00:18 britney; schestowitz[TR2], what

00:18 schestowitz[TR2]; yuou talk bullshit

00:18 britney; crickets are real things you can buy

00:18 schestowitz[TR2]; no

00:18 schestowitz[TR2]; you are pushing BS like "reptilians or the neanderthals that control WEF yet"

00:19 schestowitz[TR2]; stop pushinjg shit likle this here

00:19 britney; someone does play WEF like a puppet

00:19 schestowitz[TR2]; rich people

00:19 ulf; britney: i am not a survivalist prepper

00:20 ulf; otherwise i eat everything nutritious and healthy if necessary; why do you ask?

00:20 ulf; almost everything, not sure about crickets

00:20 britney; why are you coming after me? ulf is the ultimate bullshiter

00:21 schestowitz[TR2]; he's full of another type of bullshit

00:21 schestowitz[TR2]; whgich is why many ignore him and hen shifts names

00:21 britney; almost like a shapeshifter

00:21 ulf; i don't change nick names

00:21 schestowitz[TR2]; you do, aggi

00:21 ulf; strange accusations

00:21 britney; then he goes on about the IBM Wintel Pentagon conspiracy

00:22 schestowitz[TR2]; his hero invade Europe

00:22 schestowitz[TR2]; and then USA and USSR took over Europe

00:22 ulf; what?

00:22 schestowitz[TR2]; after his hero blew his own brains out

00:22 ulf; which hero?

00:22 schestowitz[TR2]; adolf hitler

00:22 ulf; pardon?

00:23 britney; ulf, you like adolf hitler

00:23 ulf; i do what?

00:23 ulf; what are you talking about?

00:24 britney; you adore adolf hitler as much as christians love jesus

00:24 ulf; i am neither involved with any relgious psycho sect nor with any other political mob

00:25 XRevan86; ulf: What's your opinion on Hitler "protecting the Germans" in Poland in 1939?

00:28 XRevan86; Apparently I know all the right questions.

00:28 ulf; XRevan86: i got no opinion on propagandastic nonsense

00:29 ulf; however, historical facts are bolshevist red terror killed many, before 1933 already

00:29 ulf; and after 1945, bolshevist red terror again killed millions

00:29 XRevan86; ulf: And that is relevant to this how?

00:30 ulf; XRevan86: what would i know, you asked

00:30 CrystalMath; Hitler wasn't evil because he annexed territories with germans on them, he was evil because he was killing jews

00:30 schestowitz[TR2]; so 1933-45 hitler "protected" the germns?

00:30 XRevan86; CrystalMath: Ugh.

00:30 CrystalMath; let's just not forget that the idea of territorial sovereignity being above the will of the people is retarded

00:31 schestowitz[TR2]; france did not wish to be invaded

00:31 CrystalMath; and the confederate states of america truly wanted to be invaded

00:32 CrystalMath; i'm sure afghanistan did too

00:32 CrystalMath; note: the people of afghanistan never chose liberalism, america went there to force them into it - whenever they were given a choice, they chose the taliban

00:32 XRevan86; "they chose the taliban" <- The Taliban chose itself.

00:33 CrystalMath; well, yeah, they form the majority of the Pashto people

00:33 *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

00:33 *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)

00:33 schestowitz[TR2]; that's like saying north nigerians 'chose' boko haram

00:34 XRevan86; I wonder what's the census on Taliban approval in Afghanistan before they took over.

00:34 XRevan86; Of course now it's 100% or more.

00:34 CrystalMath; among the pashto it was always very high, they were very happy in 2021; and the dari people definitely didn't like it

00:34 phanes; its friday after work and ive got a 4 day weekend

00:34 phanes; and all i wanna do is sleep :/

00:35 XRevan86; Not counting the women, but that's like asking for an opinion from a horse.

00:35 schestowitz[TR2]; life is too short for sleep :-p

00:35 britney; schestowitz[TR2], did i show you my gemini pod?

00:35 schestowitz[TR2]; yes

00:35 XRevan86; Though I wouldn't be surprised if in Afghanistan that sentence would be considered offensive to horses.

00:36 schestowitz[TR2]; only fools and horses

00:36 phanes; territorial sovereignty is valid justification for the destruction of large amounts of human life

00:36 britney; schestowitz[TR2], im hardly the most insane person in this channel

00:36 schestowitz[TR2]; work on 4--day weekends

00:36 XRevan86; britney: Top 3

00:36 schestowitz[TR2]; herr sixel is a different KIND of weird

00:36 schestowitz[TR2]; and liekly more dangerous

00:37 britney; more dangerous because its true

00:38 phanes; i vote britney as the most insane person in this channel

00:38 XRevan86; phanes: Above activelow?

00:38 britney; neanderthals and reptilians have both been pulling our strings like puppets forever

00:38 phanes; is he here

00:38 schestowitz[TR2]; yes

00:38 schestowitz[TR2]; ulf, du jour

00:38 phanes; oh

00:38 XRevan86; phanes: Depends if ye take the "no I'm not" shout seriously.

00:39 phanes; i haven't seen the ulf crazy yet so all i have to go on is the britney crazy

00:39 britney; britney crazy, i like that

00:40 phanes; i find it hard to believe ulf can top "sapient lizards and long-hidden neanderthals are secretly commanding all world powers"

00:40 phanes; like

00:40 britney; phanes, ulf has the FSF/GNU/UN conspiracy

00:40 phanes; that's so batshit i struggle to believe that even /she/ believes it

00:41 schestowitz[TR2]; yeah

00:41 schestowitz[TR2]; I think it's either attention-seeking,, trolling, or discrediting campaign

00:41 XRevan86; phanes: The difference is, britney has an abstract global concept insanity, activelow goes insane over everything in his grasp.

00:41 phanes; i wonder what properties their children would have

00:42 phanes; ulf, britney step into the teleportation machine together please

00:42 XRevan86; His type of crazy is also very egotistical.

00:42 XRevan86; Everything is somehow about him.

00:43 phanes; i shudder to think what y'all say about me when im not around

00:43 schestowitz[TR2]; its zola

00:45 britney; thats paranoia schestowitz

00:45 schestowitz[TR2]; no

00:45 schestowitz[TR2]; it's reality

00:46 phanes; its okay to be paranoid

00:46 schestowitz[TR2]; happened to forums I knew ages ago

00:46 schestowitz[TR2]; people interjecting "alien" crap and such

00:46 phanes; there's a striking difference between paranoia and delusion

00:46 britney; nobody thinks you believe in reptilians because i'm here

00:46 XRevan86; phanes: But what if GCC is out to get you?

00:46 schestowitz[TR2]; then get a machine from the 1970s

00:46 phanes; XRevan86, gcc's direction is so shattered you need psychedlics and a kaleidoscope to even understand it, it couldn't be out to get anything

00:47 phanes; frankly im amazed its continued as long as it has the way it is

00:47 ulf; mapple llvm isn't much better

00:48 britney; why is it called mapple

00:48 ulf; and it's no real alternative to GCC

00:49 ulf; mapple(R) because micros~1(R) because apple(R)

00:49 ulf; it's easiest to just refer to them as yet another Pentagon department

00:49 phanes; lol wut

00:50 britney; ulf is talking about the pentagon again

00:50 ulf; it's just some marketing labels of the Pentagon spying apparatus

00:50 phanes; you can tell when someone doesn't know anything about these companies and has never set foot in one of their buildings when they start confusing them as extensions of government agencies

00:52 phanes; frankly that goes for the federal side, too, ulf. you know neither DoD nor corporate :P

00:52 britney; its just a tool of the united nations

00:54 phanes; britney, for real though, what's up with the lizard/neanderthal thing, like, have you explored this with a therapist

00:56 phanes; being paranoid of government is one thing, and frankly justifiable, but to hold a false belief that is obviously false, in the absence of convincing evidence and nothing but dispeling evidence, is a delusion

00:56 schestowitz[TR2]; I think it's to stannd out

00:56 schestowitz[TR2]; attention-seeking

00:56 schestowitz[TR2]; like flat earthers

00:57 schestowitz[TR2]; they see satellite footage

00:57 schestowitz[TR2]; and then go... mhe

00:57 schestowitz[TR2]; meh

00:57 ulf; phanes: i did work for a bunch of companies

00:58 ulf; although i am not the type of poser to think this is in any way relevant

00:58 ulf; because, the source code and build system of "free software" is public

00:58 ulf; for everyone to take a look, what this really is

00:58 phanes; ulf, based on the things you say, I find that very hard to believe

01:00 ulf; ok, one hint, where i was: "mobile number portability" was utilized/introduced to implement "triggers", to "route on IMSI" into the "intelligent network"

01:01 ulf; meaning, the network operator status is somewhat "virtualized" nowadays, even when you got a mobile phone number from any provider, it's triggered and routed into the "intelligent network" protocol domain regardless

01:27 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], It's just the computer on the car being dicky about a leak not even big enough to leak actual gasoline.

01:27 DaemonFC; Just some fumes.

01:27 *GNUmoon2 has quit (Remote host closed the connection)

01:28 DaemonFC; Odds are, on a car 4-5 years older, you could have the same problem and not even have a Check Engine Light on. I smelled gas sometimes with the Impala. It was a old car with 300,000 miles.

01:28 *GNUmoon2 (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrights

01:28 DaemonFC; Think I was having it smoke tested to find a $450 problem when it passed emissions without narcing me out?

01:34 DaemonFC; The reduction in gas mileage from a vapor leak is so small you won't notice it.

01:35 DaemonFC; If you live in a non-emissions state and the only thing wrong is your computer yells at you to check gas cap and you're sure it's not the cap, I wouldn't go any further except maybe having the shop look for obvious vapor line rot or filler neck or tank leaks while it's on the lift if they won't charge you for it.

01:35 DaemonFC; I changed my gas cap to an OEM one and it stopped yelling at me for about three months. Then it came back and turned on the light.

01:36 DaemonFC; It's possible that an ill fitting cap and a small leak from the fuel pump o-ring = massive vapor leak.

01:37 DaemonFC; So you change the cap to one that fits better, the computer shuts up for a while because it's back within tolerances (barely), then the leak in the o-ring at the pump gets a little worse and the light's on.

01:38 DaemonFC; If I could just modify the computer firmware to something that lies to the emissions testers that the readings are within tolerances and flash that into the ECM I'd go that route.

01:39 DaemonFC; I wonder if that's even possible. Just flash an emissions cheat into your car and go all VW on them down there. Doubt anyone making $11 an hour would figure it out.

01:42 DaemonFC; https://forum.efilive.com/showthread.php?11344-Emission-Testing-Ways-to-Cheat

↺ https://forum.efilive.com/showthread.php?11344-Emission-Testing-Ways-to-Cheat

01:42 TR Bot; Emission Testing/Ways to Cheat?

01:42 DaemonFC; This guy posted a comment for GM cars on how to clear the malfunction code and quickly get the system to READY, hopefully before it figures out there's something wrong again, and then run it past the emissions station before the car realizes something's wrong.

01:46 DaemonFC; If it's something stupid and cheap just fix it, but if it's like WHOA, you might try reset and quickly get the system to READY. You can sometimes get it through between READY and when the light comes on again.

01:46 DaemonFC; Intermittent faults related to emissions can trip out the computer and the light can go ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF.

01:47 DaemonFC; But what will happen when that's playing out is the computer will turn the light off because it's not happening right them, and then it will store the code as an inactive code for a while in case it acts up. That way, you can't go to the emissions and pass and get your plates if it takes, say, 500 miles for the light to come back on.

01:48 DaemonFC; But if you clear it, you can make the system READY again in 20-50 miles on most cars, and you can just keep doing that until you get a cycle that's good enough to go down, pass emissions, and get anotehr 2 years.

01:49 phanes; why not just take the bulb out of the dash

01:49 DaemonFC; Now, schestowitz[TR2] You're not wrong about wanting to just fix the car in many cases.

01:49 DaemonFC; In some cases, if you have an Emissions DTC, it is one that will get worse and cause engine knock or misfires that can actually damage something.

01:49 DaemonFC; But a vapor leak? You can drive for years and there won't be more damage. It'll just leak fuel vapor.

01:50 DaemonFC; If you live in Indiana, no big deal.

01:50 DaemonFC; Some government Web sites try to scare you and claim that the vapor might get in the car and poison you, but I'd really love for them to tell me how that happens without you noticing.

01:51 DaemonFC; Gasoline has an instantly recognizable smell and vapors are detectable at very low levels.

01:51 DaemonFC; None of the vapors vent into the cabin because everywhere they could leak is OUTSIDE the car.

01:51 DaemonFC; Now, an exhaust leak is another story. Those can be pretty nasty.

01:52 DaemonFC; If someone's trying to sell you a car that's sitting there going "TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK" and it gets faster when you accelerate, it's probably an exhaust manifold leak.

01:53 DaemonFC; If it gets into the cabin, you're talking about a lot of bad stuff.

01:54 DaemonFC; The manifold is upwind of the catalytic converter, so you're talking carbon monoxide and a lot of it.

01:55 TR Bot; Says Bosch Created Illegal Emissions Software | CarComplaints.com

01:55 DaemonFC; I've used Bosch emissions parts.

01:55 DaemonFC; They make oxygen sensors.

01:55 DaemonFC; And spark plugs.

01:55 DaemonFC; Lots of ignition stuff.

01:56 DaemonFC; The Impala had Bosch ignition coils, plug wires, plugs, and oxygen sensors.

01:56 DaemonFC; All of those were shot. The car only got 9 miles a gallon when mom handed it to me.

01:56 DaemonFC; I handed it back and it was getting 17.

01:56 DaemonFC; (city)

01:57 DaemonFC; The truth is those O2 sensors are cheaper to just replace if your mileage is getting bad. It's one of the major reasons it can happen. Those computers don't always pop up a light.

01:57 DaemonFC; They have a lifespan, but nobody ever does change them until the car's running like shit and it has a light.

01:58 DaemonFC; Which is ridiculous.

01:58 DaemonFC; Gas is $4.60 a gallon right now, which is actually an improvement vs. a few months ago. I'm sure the politicians have something to do with this (election).

01:58 DaemonFC; If it kept creeping up and up....

01:59 DaemonFC; But an O2 sensor going bad can cut your gas mileage by 25-30% sometimes before a light comes on. Eventually the two will disagree too much or one will have no reading or out of bounds and the ECM won't know how to run the engine very well.

03:23 MinceR; 06 005655 < britney> im not sure if its the reptilians or the neanderthals that control WEF yet

03:23 MinceR; https://i.imgur.com/s4eamxv.jpg

↺ https://i.imgur.com/s4eamxv.jpg

03:29 MinceR; 06 005850 < britney> if crickets are put into the food, reptilians can eat it too and then you got two species eating the same food

03:29 MinceR; nice harmony

03:29 MinceR; pretty sure reptiles will happily eat all other sorts of food too, though

03:29 MinceR; like humans :>

03:31 MinceR; 06 013047 < CrystalMath> let's just not forget that the idea of territorial sovereignity being above the will of the people is retarded

03:31 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights

03:31 MinceR; interesting how the only people whose will counts are apparently vladimir putin and xi jinping

03:33 CrystalMath; MinceR: they're populists precisely because their ideas are popular

03:33 CrystalMath; the vast majority of the world is not happy with the idea of a liberal world order

03:34 MinceR; so their propaganda says

03:35 MinceR; yet they won't even ask the opinions of their own subjects

03:35 MinceR; or at least they won't listen

03:35 MinceR; (also, i didn't know winnie the pooh got on the "populist" bandwagon too)

04:28 DaemonFC; The Health Department is texting us about Monkeypox vaccines.

04:28 DaemonFC; I said no thanks.

04:37 DaemonFC; I have no idea why the movie Bicentennial Man got such poor reviews.

04:38 DaemonFC; If there was anything particularly unrealistic about the plot, I'd say they could have gone much heavier on the bigotry.

04:38 DaemonFC; There's no way that humans would tolerate something so far superior that demanded equal rights in court. We haven't even treated each other well when other humans were demanding their basic rights in court.

04:39 MinceR; if humans are to survive for much longer, they'll have to get rid of such childish things as bigotry

04:39 *bnchs (~bnchs@bxiys8285izdi.irc) has joined #techrights

04:39 DaemonFC; I don't think that the gay rights litigation and legislation process was as bad as what women and black people went through in the United States in some ways, but it was worse in others.

04:41 DaemonFC; It was different bigotries expressed in different ways.

04:42 DaemonFC; MinceR, Arguing in court for personhood was the part of the movie that got me. The judge in the first trial to decide that issue in the movie said his opinion against it was because Andrew would live forever and because he was "removed from the human gene pool and exists entirely outside of it". The first argument doesn't apply to gay people.

04:43 DaemonFC; We'll certainly die like anyone else.

04:43 DaemonFC; The second part sounded like and allegory to the same-sex marriage lawsuits in the states.

04:44 DaemonFC; What kept coming up as part of the denials over the decades was that even if gay people were allowed to marry (which is why Andrew was trying to be declared a human being equivalent), they wouldn't produce children and would therefore be useless to the state.

04:44 DaemonFC; Which was oddly the same basic logic that Hitler used to send them to the camps.

04:44 DaemonFC; He wanted people reproducing, quickly.

04:45 DaemonFC; The judge in the movie didn't say as much, but it was implied by the "you exist outside of our gene pool" comment.

04:46 DaemonFC; Even after Andrew becomes anatomically correct (and has it connected to his synthetic central nervous system), he can't reproduce.

04:47 DaemonFC; He can't even reproduce after he devises a plan to grow old and die. The difference appears to be that many decades later, he went to court again and got different judges.

04:47 DaemonFC; Which is what eventually happened with same-sex marriage in the United States.

04:51 DaemonFC; It's revolting that you have to wait decades and keep asking different judges and that some people won't live to see the day.

04:52 DaemonFC; No decision handed down by a court today can ever undo the damage done to someone who was denied a right for their entire life and died.

04:52 DaemonFC; Part of the reason why government should be severely curtailed.

04:53 DaemonFC; THe government is the reason you didn't have the right in the first place.

04:53 DaemonFC; Who else would enforce other people's bigotry against you?

04:54 MinceR; many people would gladly do so

04:54 MinceR; most humans are trash

04:54 DaemonFC; I don't think I'm alone in saying that I grew up watching the courts and learned to despise them for seeing what they do to people.

04:55 DaemonFC; The judge officiating at my wedding managed to slip in an insult, possibly not realizing that I knew what the word meant. Or maybe he didn't care.

04:55 DaemonFC; Like the law says I have to do this, but here you go.

04:56 DaemonFC; He called my marriage "sanctimonious", then a couple years later, he was sitting at the trial of a child molester, and cut the child molester loose after 60 days in the county jail.

04:56 DaemonFC; Same judge!

04:57 DaemonFC; I'm not going to feel insulted by a judge who does things like this.

04:57 DaemonFC; Most of these people they parade around the courts here should be glad I'm not a judge.

04:57 DaemonFC; Our prisons would be stuffed so full they'd have to sleep in bunk beds in the cafeteria.

04:57 DaemonFC; Like California.

04:59 DaemonFC; MinceR, About most people being trash....

04:59 DaemonFC; Absolutely true.


5 AM, August 6

05:00 DaemonFC; That's why things are so messed up.

05:00 DaemonFC; The politicians cater to them because they have the votes.

05:02 DaemonFC; Star Trek: The Next Generation had an episode where a court determined if Data was a person, and Voyager had some considering the personhood of The Doctor.

05:02 DaemonFC; Legal Eagle on YouTube (a real New York attorney) went over those episodes.

05:03 DaemonFC; https://yewtu.be/watch?v=XVjeYW6S8Mo

05:03 TR Bot; Real Lawyer Reacts to Star Trek TNG Measure of a Man (Picard Defends Datas Humanity) // LegalEagle - Invidious

05:08 DaemonFC; "Vision would be chattel to Tony Stark." Well, it's not just a computer.

05:09 DaemonFC; It has one of those Infinity Stone things enhancing an AI.

05:09 DaemonFC; So you'd also have to rule that the Infinity Stone belongs to Tony Stark too and that the combined sum of Stark's AI, Jarvis, and the Infinity Stone belongs to Stark.

05:09 DaemonFC; Which would be an interesting trial.

05:39 DaemonFC; I've had employers do worse.

05:39 DaemonFC; Like the hot warehouse with no air conditioning.

05:39 DaemonFC; At least they set out gatorade stations I suppose, and kept it really cold.

05:40 DaemonFC; You could barely drink fast enough to stay hydrated there. Some people passed out and left in an ambulance.

11:32 DaemonFC; I was trying to sit down and think of all of my reasons why I left the church years ago. If anything, I think I've added some.

11:33 DaemonFC; My favorite is "The same punishment for every crime.". Not even the most despotic dictatorships on Earth have the most severe penalty for every offense.

11:34 DaemonFC; Christians make a steady point of there being no sin greater than any other. There's a big difference between stealing a cookie and then lying to your parents about it and raping then murdering someone, but parents actually tell their children that once you've done one, you've done them all, as far as God cares about.

11:34 DaemonFC; That seems pretty sloppy.

11:35 DaemonFC; The point is you're supposed to be afraid of God and watch yourself, but others would say "Well, I've already done this, this, and that, and in God's playbook I'm Charles Manson at this point.".

11:36 DaemonFC; I refuse to believe in, or at least respect, a Supreme Being that manages to dole out more incompetent justice than the court a few blocks from where I live.

11:37 DaemonFC; You go to court, there's a list of charges. You get tried on all of them, convicted of them separately if the jury thinks you did it. In the end, the punishments add up based on what they figure you're guilty of, but the punishment is not unlimited and forever.

11:37 schestowitz[TR2]; the reason you "joined" in the first place is parents

11:37 schestowitz[TR2]; you were a member by virtue of being born

11:37 DaemonFC; Pretty much.

11:38 schestowitz[TR2]; Dawkins has a saying about "Mulsin kids" or x-ian kids"

11:38 schestowitz[TR2]; they're not

11:38 schestowitz[TR2]; they're "kids of muslim parents"

11:38 DaemonFC; They go "Well, God figures you did one, you may as well have done them all. One in, all in!" on sin.

11:39 DaemonFC; Doesn't care about "extenuating circumstances" or anything.

11:39 DaemonFC; Your whole life splayed out in front of "the court", and if you're found guilty of anything.....eternal damnation.

11:40 DaemonFC; I was considering Robin Williams and his suicide. And I was talking to mom about that like 8 years ago when it happened.

11:41 DaemonFC; And she's like "Well, he's in Hell now. They all go there.".

11:41 DaemonFC; They ALL go there. Right. No exception for the terminally ill, the mentally ill, the people who have no idea what they're doing because their mind is gone or severely compromised or because they have a few weeks left anyway and they don't want to die in pain.

11:42 DaemonFC; That's very fair!

11:42 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR2]> Dawkins has a saying about "Mulsin kids" or x-ian kids"

11:43 DaemonFC; About 3-4 year old children. Acting as if they chose a religion because their parents were members of that religion.

11:43 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], Religion is a lousy form of social control.

11:44 DaemonFC; My grandfather, who was a pastor at his church in old age, who everybody liked, turned out to be hiding some shit he never made right.

11:44 DaemonFC; Never even tried to.

11:45 DaemonFC; Like, he got a woman pregnant before he married my grandmother, then he married my grandmother, and found out that the woman he had gotten pregnant was carrying his child, and pretty much skipped town and never talked about it again.

11:45 DaemonFC; So I have a "half-uncle" on mom's side of the family and none of them knew it until 2006.

11:46 DaemonFC; But grandpa had a huge funeral at the church. Hundreds of people there. More than will show up for me.

11:47 DaemonFC; I was surprised that there were so many that showed up, actually.

11:47 DaemonFC; If I fell over right now, there'd be 5 people there, tops.

11:48 DaemonFC; It's interesting how many people knew each other so well back then.

12:03 schestowitz[TR2]; it's not just social control

12:03 schestowitz[TR2]; but a pyramid scheme of power and wealth

12:03 schestowitz[TR2]; you join as a low-level member

12:04 schestowitz[TR2]; like in scientologgy

12:04 DaemonFC; Yeah, they were always sucked in to those.

12:04 schestowitz[TR2]; they promise you afterlife in exchange for you recruiting more members for the scheme

12:05 schestowitz[TR2]; "successful" religions

12:05 schestowitz[TR2]; make it punishable by death to leave

12:05 schestowitz[TR2]; they also recruit diplomatic and charistmatic assholes

12:05 schestowitz[TR2]; like travolta and cruise

12:05 schestowitz[TR2]; the catholics don't recuit charistmatic assholes

12:05 schestowitz[TR2]; but asshole fuckers

12:05 schestowitz[TR2]; and then hide what's happening

12:06 schestowitz[TR2]; because the newspapers might "offend god"

12:06 DaemonFC; Yeah, the Catholic Church has beliefs and then they don't. Whichever one suits them for what they're doing at the moment.

12:06 schestowitz[TR2]; religions are good for capitalism

12:06 schestowitz[TR2]; they tell you to have many kids

12:06 schestowitz[TR2]; not for you

12:06 schestowitz[TR2]; for god, foir the church

12:06 schestowitz[TR2]; so then you work to death

12:07 schestowitz[TR2]; while making more members for the cult

12:07 schestowitz[TR2]; and moe consumers for capitalism

12:07 schestowitz[TR2]; which relies on constant expansion

12:07 schestowitz[TR2]; more extraction, more consumers, more debt

12:09 TR News; After the latest mega-incident (whole OS and data just died after electric outage) we've set ipfs and gemini @ techrights (among many other things) to back up to external disk automatically every night at 5:10am. That ought to make recovery from disaster a lot more rapid.

12:18 DaemonFC; I have to replace my ring. I can't wear it on my ring finger anymore, and I seem to have misplaced it. You can't get these things re-sized. The good news is they're not super expensive.

12:18 DaemonFC; I figured I might lose it or get mugged or something.

12:18 DaemonFC; I can be very absentminded.

12:22 DaemonFC; People buy expensive rings and then lose them down a storm drain or someone points a gun at them and goes "That looks nice and it's mine now!".

12:23 DaemonFC; The advertising industry isn't much different than religion.

12:23 DaemonFC; Guilt tripping people into doing stupid things that aren't good for them.

12:24 DaemonFC; You can't resize tungsten and even if you could, it would cost more to pay someone to do it than getting another ring.

21:52 ulf; the build system alone, is almost unmaintainable and crashes almost everything as soon as an alternative ANSI C compliant compiler is used (which isn't Mapple llvm nor IBM gcc)

22:10 DaemonFC; These people just pile on the STDs.

22:11 DaemonFC; And Monkeypox won't be any different, obviously. We're seeing that.

22:40 MinceR; ulf: and neither of those claimed 100% efficacy even when they were new

23:16 TR Bot; Lake County, Illinois Health Department leaving voicemails with me and my spouse over Monkeypox Grindr vaccine. BaronHK's Rants

23:18 DaemonFC; If there have been 7,000 confirmed cases of Monkeypox in the US and 98% are gay men (mostly ones having sex with lots of people), then the remainder is 140.

23:18 DaemonFC; And that's probably mostly "other" people fucking around.

23:18 DaemonFC; It's basically an STD and nobody wants to say that.

23:19 DaemonFC; For every 10,000 cases, like maybe 30-40 will be kids, nursing home patients, healthcare workers, and someone who touched something and got it off a surface.

23:19 DaemonFC; The rest will just be people on hookup apps and bathhouses and pick up bars.

23:19 DaemonFC; Disease that select someone "nasty" usually don't get "taken seriously".

23:20 DaemonFC; Because many people have almost nothing to fear from them personally.

23:22 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], Contact tracing STDs with gay men is almost an exercise in futility.

23:23 DaemonFC; Most of them will just sit there and either refuse or can't name most or all of them because they honestly can't recall or didn't even ask.

23:23 DaemonFC; The notion of contact tracing is something that health departments come up with as a government job program, but you might as well almost not do it.

23:25 DaemonFC; There was a real freak of nature at the Health Department who was talking to me and I told him I was married.

23:25 DaemonFC; And then he's like "Oh I know why you did that. It was so you could fuck someone without a condom on.".

23:25 DaemonFC; And I'm like, "Uhhhh. No?".

23:26 DaemonFC; Then he got to talking about himself and said he was gay and he had HIV. (I had never asked.)

23:28 DaemonFC; You know, I remember mom and dad in the car talking about going to Red Lobster back in the 90s, and dad said some black guy came in with his underwear hanging out of his pants and another black guy saw it and shook his head. And I asked what they meant, and mom said, "Some people have some decency and don't like other people making them all look bad.".

23:28 DaemonFC; And I totally get that.

23:28 DaemonFC; People run into "Health Department Guy" and go "Man, gay people are all a bunch of perverts!".

23:28 DaemonFC; He was seriously creeping me out.

23:31 DaemonFC; The black guy that was shaking his head wasn't an anti-black racist. He was visibly irritated that the other guy was contributing to making racists feel justified.

23:32 britney; ^ I'm not the craziest person in here ^

23:33 phanes; ^ britney is the craziest person in here

23:33 DaemonFC; So in the same sense, I'd say that talking about who gets Monkeypox doesn't make me a homophobe or a "self-deprecating gay man". It makes me visibly annoyed that people are hiding behind "homophobia" to justify acting like creeps and pawning off the blame for Monkeypox onto "all gay men".

23:33 britney; phanes, wot?

23:35 phanes; britney, lol you literally believe a sapient race of lizards (1) exists and (2) is controlling the global elite and can say the same about a race of neanderthals which died out before recorded history

23:35 britney; the neanderthals are still alive, they're in the moho discontinuity

23:36 phanes; DaemonFC may actually just lack refinement in presentation, I can't tell yet

23:36 MinceR; they don't mind the heat?

23:37 phanes; britney, so you believe that a race of super-intelligent neanderthals lives underground to compliment the super-intelligent lizards that you believe rules the earth

23:37 britney; phanes, they both battle each other in a grand game of chess using us as pawns

23:37 MinceR; "It has been estimated 1 that this layer has a temperature of 500600 C at the base of the continental crust and 150200 C in the sub-oceanic discontinuity"

23:37 britney; im not sure if the lizards are super intelligent, i never said that

23:38 phanes; britney, im surprised you haven't caught some heat for this already; i mean, how can you even pretend to believe any of that with a straight face with absolutely no evidence imaginable to find

23:39 phanes; britney, that you wrote about it is only evidence that you believe it

23:39 britney; i also exist on gemeni://cerberusinvestigations.darkcloud.ca

23:40 britney; you're free to believe whatever you want, I'm just talking about what I believe and it doesn't make me crazy.

23:40 britney; i prefer the term 'eccentric'

23:41 phanes; yes having a persistent delusion is "crazy"

23:42 phanes; my general impression is that it's a thought exercise for you to argue a knowingly absurd position to perhaps harden your ability to influence

23:43 phanes; like i dont just dispute your position britney, i dispute that you actually believe it because it is so absurd

23:43 britney; it seems absurd but it makes perfect sense

23:43 DaemonFC; The lizards don't actually originate from Earth. The current batch is here to get humans to help terraform the planet for them.

23:44 phanes; it seems absurd because its the same kind of magical thinking that contributes to flat earth theory

23:44 britney; flat earth theory is crazy

23:44 DaemonFC; That's why Bill Gates and Al Gore have huge mansions and take jumbo jets around talking about climate change.

23:45 DaemonFC; ;)

23:45 MinceR; 07 004433 < britney> flat earth theory is crazy

23:45 MinceR; yeah

23:45 MinceR; those whackos believe the earth exists

23:46 XRevan86; britney: Believing in things with absolutely no evidence for is well, religion.

23:46 phanes; in order for the gates/gore theory to be accurate you'd have to pretend climate change is anthropogenic

23:47 britney; phanes, I would start with the Kealey Papers, https://glenkealey.com/kealeyp.html

↺ https://glenkealey.com/kealeyp.html

23:47 TR Bot; Kealey Papers

23:47 phanes; in any case, the whole repitilian/neanderthal bit is either a deliberate deception or a non-deliberate delusion

23:47 XRevan86; britney: Also not very imaginative in my opinion. Get more creative with your Truth.

23:48 XRevan86; britney: Here's an idea: what if a Reptiloid/Neanderthal/Denisovan love triangle?

23:49 phanes; also if your whole argument is "read some guy's rhetorical collection of logical fallacies on this" then you haven't given it much thought

23:49 XRevan86; Also with Romeo & Juliet themes but adapted for three.

23:50 XRevan86; britney: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GroundhogDayLoop here's also a good trope to add into the mix.

23:51 phanes; britney, lol, wrong tree

23:51 XRevan86; So a Neaderthal and a Reptiloid swap bodies and have to bond other understanding the hardships of each other.

23:51 phanes; mackey never asserted lizard overlords or subterranean neanderthals lol

23:51 XRevan86; s/other/over/

23:51 MinceR; i didn't realize gates and gore came up with a theory of their own

23:52 XRevan86; (and then they kiss)

23:52 MinceR; XRevan86: do they do this in the Mohorovii Discontinuity?

23:52 britney; XRevan86, you can call them reptoids

23:53 XRevan86; britney: "Reptiloid" is just more popular in the Russian memesphere.

23:53 MinceR; they won't mind because they don't exist?

23:53 phanes; so where can i meet a reptoid britney

23:53 XRevan86; MinceR: Don't know, but if they don't, maybe they should.

23:54 britney; phanes, probably by looking in a mirror

23:54 phanes; oh are they trapped in the dr strange storyline

23:54 XRevan86; phanes: That's a huge honour, when I said to britney that I'm reptilian, she asserted that I'm joking.

23:55 XRevan86; So ye have something I don't.

23:55 phanes; XRevan86, i actually have the complete works of mackey so when she said the answer was in there, I knew she'd run out of material.

23:55 britney; you're probably a mason yourself

23:56 britney; of course you would attack the messenger

23:56 phanes; im going to a scottish rite event on tuesday actually

23:57 phanes; just for the record im not a reptilian lol

23:57 XRevan86; I am though.

23:58 ulf; phanes: birds (feathered reptiles), mammals, apes ... are all related

23:58 phanes; ulf, sure but that doesn't defy taxonomy

23:58 ulf; although, i don't know, if this is what britney has in mind

23:58 XRevan86; ulf: Definitely not what britney has in mind.

23:58 britney; humans were genetically engineered by the hive mind super computer

23:59 phanes; lol

23:59 phanes; britney, so where do masons fit in?

23:59 britney; they just do as they're told by the neanderthallers

23:59 XRevan86; britney: Do the neanderthallers have better dentistry?

23:59 phanes; britney, ive never met a neanderthaller as im about as high up as it gets
