04:47 DaemonFC; So they record constantly, not just reading license plates.

04:48 DaemonFC; The witness, whose relation to Brown was unclear, called 911, prompting a sergeant to respond about 15 minutes later, DeGroot said."

04:48 DaemonFC; 15 minutes.....and that's fast for the cops.

04:48 DaemonFC; "Brown told the sergeant "that he was just trying to get some p-," DeGroot said. Hours later, he admitted to being with the woman but claimed he didnt recall anything else."

11:10 TR Bot; Has the Pandemic Pushed Universities to the Brink? | The Nation

11:21 DaemonFC; Goes on Zoom. Adds a "technology surcharge". Leaves fees for sporting events that have been canceled for two YEARS now.

11:22 DaemonFC; Cancels the SAT/ACT because they're a barrier to loading down people who are too stupid for college with debt for life.

11:23 DaemonFC; That's all you're paying big bucks for now. Sporting "events" that have nothing to do with education and teaching people racism against whites.

11:23 DaemonFC; It's getting so bad in public university that if you're white, you really ought not go anyway. Find yourself a nice private school that doles out fines if people show up smoking marijuana and listening to rap.

11:24 DaemonFC; Bonus: No penalty for refusing experimental COVID shots that are such a terrific idea that they have to find illegal "punishments" for refusing them.

11:25 DaemonFC; Just let public colleges finish turning into adult Chicago Public Schools without borrowing from your future to fund them.

11:25 DaemonFC; They figured out how to segregate public community colleges here in Illinois.

11:25 DaemonFC; They don't want people escaping the ghetto and going to one that's still nice.

11:26 DaemonFC; So they add enough fees to double the cost of credit hours if you choose to attend one outside your county.

11:26 DaemonFC; That ensures that if you live in DuPage county, there's hardly any black people going to that one because hardly any black people live there to begin with.

11:27 DaemonFC; Isn't that convenient from a "very progressive state"?

11:27 DaemonFC; It also keeps the local politicians in control, because you can only vote for who runs the place if you live in the district.

11:28 DaemonFC; So it's suddenly not so surprising that in other counties, they teach job skills, and in this county, they teach anti-white racism.

11:29 DaemonFC; Illinois is pretty fucked up. In the early 1980s the American Nazi Party (barely exists anymore) marched through Skokie. Everyone showed up to it to boo and hiss at them and tell them they had no place here.

11:30 DaemonFC; In 2020, the black anti-white hate groups Nation of Islam and Revolutionary Communism have similar marches, only they don't even get a permit, and the level of heckling borders on unlawful riot.

11:30 DaemonFC; The Nazis were actually much more polite than this.

11:30 DaemonFC; Yet, nobody is allowed to show up and voice their disapproval of being accosted while trying to get off the CTA train for being white and gay.

11:31 DaemonFC; Hell, in Chicago itself, the system of laws collapsed entirely.

11:32 DaemonFC; And they had to raise bridges because hundreds of them showed up to sack malls downtown and rob people and burn down Ronny's and a gas station owned by an immigrant that came here with a few bucks in his pocket and joined the "asset" column.

11:33 DaemonFC; It would have been nice if they could have burned down the Communists of Lake County.

11:33 DaemonFC; So that my tax dollars would no longer have to support the place.

11:34 DaemonFC; People go there and have to read things like shithead Trevor Noah complaining about white people.

11:35 DaemonFC; He actually turned The Daily Show into a funny and sarcastic riff on the daily news into an hour of non-stop "Did you know white police officers accidentally killed a felon that was pointing a gun at them and hopped up on drugs? This is just like apartheid in South Africa!".

11:35 DaemonFC; And nobody cares.

11:35 DaemonFC; Comcast actually wonders out loud why the cable TV cancellations have gone from 1 million households per year to 2.5 million.

11:37 DaemonFC; "Let's see. I've got no money. I've got a car that barely works. And I'm paying $150 a month to have Trevor Noah tell me I'm a bigot although I'm a gay man married to an immigrant. Yeah, no."

11:39 DaemonFC; Cable TV is the new Coca Cola.

11:39 DaemonFC; They think they're going to anger their core demographic and business will start booming.

11:39 DaemonFC; Coke lost a metric fuckton of money with their "Be less white." campaign.

11:40 DaemonFC; Because all the white people who were offended by that stopped buying the shit and sales crashed.

11:40 DaemonFC; It used to be you couldn't go anywhere in Georgia without people drinking Coke and now that's a four letter word. (Well, it is, but you know.....)

11:41 DaemonFC; schestowitz, CNN Business had an interview with the CEO of Coke.

11:41 DaemonFC; He completely brushed past the questions on sales volume going way down.

11:42 DaemonFC; And moved towards how many products they've canceled and how "bold" his leadership has been in "improving margins".

11:42 DaemonFC; The funny part is that this focus on margins instead of profits isn't new, but he completely blew it when the notes from that meeting got out and now he's trying to make a case for why the Board shouldn't fire him.

13:25 TR Bot; Richard Alexander (exonerated convict) - Wikipedia

13:25 DaemonFC; The police in Indiana destroyed evidence that would have cleared him of the charges and then they pressured witnesses who said they didn't recall the attacker's face well enough for an identification to identify him as the rapist.

13:27 DaemonFC; Then the courts said that after he was exonerated by DNA evidence and the credible confession of the true rapist, that Mr. Alexander's rights were not violated by the state and he was due no compensation.

13:27 DaemonFC; Man, if he was black the ACLU and the NAACP and everyone else would have burned the courthouse down after a ruling like this.

13:28 DaemonFC; Since he's white he just lost 5 years of his life in prison and lost his job and lost his family and then they go "Whoops, shit happens. The police burning the evidence that would have set you free didn't violate your rights or anything, you know.".

13:30 DaemonFC; The cops lie all the time.

13:30 DaemonFC; When I talked to my attorney about my case in 2019, he asked why on Earth I would have made a statement to the police confessing to the accusation.

13:31 DaemonFC; I said I didn't tell them anything and I had immediately invoked my right to remain silent.

13:31 DaemonFC; He goes, "Well, it says here that's what you told them.".

13:31 DaemonFC; If they can't get anything out of you, they'll probably just lie and write down that you confessed.

13:32 DaemonFC; That's not unusual. Nobody believes you when you tell them that, even after the trial, even after you lose and have nothing to gain anymore by lying about it because the harm was already done to you.

13:34 DaemonFC; We have a "system is always right" rule, where if you tell a probation officer you're not guilty and you're just there because you couldn't maintain a defense and didn't want something worse to happen to you, they jump down your throat accusing you of making excuses for yourself and threaten that worse things will happen if you stop "downplaying" what happened.

13:36 DaemonFC; Being on probation is pretty fucking nasty even if it's for the lowest crime on the books.

13:37 DaemonFC; The first thing that happens is that they start power tripping on you, especially if you have a black probation officer and they finally come across the 1 in 100 defendants in the county that was white and lands on their desk.

13:38 DaemonFC; They see it as a chance to have someone under their thumb that they've been told is the reason that everything bad in their life has ever happened.

13:38 DaemonFC; So it's immediately personal.

13:40 DaemonFC; They immediately start prioritizing you, a class C misdemeanant, over their felony rapists. Like, calling you at all hours and showing up at your home, when they have absconders and non-compliant sex offenders that they really ought to be doing something about.

13:40 DaemonFC; And it doesn't matter if drugs were an issue in the state's case. If you're white, you get to pee in a cup every week with someone watching you.

13:41 DaemonFC; Because they can, and then they can make you pay for it.

13:44 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, These "biometrics-optional" FOID cards are not gonna happen. I'll just renew them every 10 years manually.

13:44 DaemonFC; Knowing my luck, the stupid idiots would run my prints, which they already have, and then I'd get a letter asking me why I have a FOID card, that they issued.

13:44 DaemonFC; That's just how the government is.

13:45 DaemonFC; Not only did they issue it, they revoked it and then issued it again when I appealed.

13:45 DaemonFC; Constitutional rights turn on and off, like someone playing with a light switch.

16:11 XRevan86; ARM is a business that sells intellectual property.

16:12 XRevan86; And while they're dominating they'll never give that up.

16:12 XRevan86; And if they ever stop dominating, well, then open ARM will not really be needed anymore either.

16:14 activelow; it's rather sad j-core didn't succeed; an entire open SoC design existed, full GNU support present

16:14 psydroid2; the thing is that ARM is very dependent on free software to the point that it isn't worth much without it

16:14 XRevan86; Are there any news on what's going on with Arm China?

16:15 psydroid2; it's not as if there is a lot of closed source software that is exclusive to ARM

16:15 psydroid2; like there is with x86

16:17 psydroid2; but yeah, an open ISA ensures more longevity than a closed ISA nowadays

16:17 psydroid2; how the tables have turned

19:26 TR Bot; J.&J. Pauses Production of Its Covid Vaccine Despite Persistent Need - The New York Times

19:26 DaemonFC; I think they actually paused it because nobody wants it.

19:26 SomeH4x0r; persistent need? or mandates and enforcement?

19:27 DaemonFC; Very few people here took it, the government fully approved two competitors but not J&J.

19:27 DaemonFC; And the CDC now says don't take J&J because it's not very effective against Omicron.

19:28 DaemonFC; "Johnson & Johnsons Covid vaccine has been in heavy use in the developing world"

19:28 *techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

19:28 DaemonFC; Yeah, probably they had to discount it heavily and dump it on them.

19:28 DaemonFC; Now they don't want to sell doses that badly so they're shutting down the plant.

19:40 schestowitz-TR; They are PREPAID

19:40 bnchs; yes taxes

19:40 schestowitz-TR; whether you want it or not

19:40 *Noisytoot has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)

19:44 DaemonFC; Right, and that way nobody cares what they cost.

19:44 DaemonFC; Same when the government gets into any business.

19:45 DaemonFC; Like health insurance.

19:46 DaemonFC; Big daddy government comes in and instead of banning the chargemaster and setting sane price caps, they come in and pay those insane prices behind the scenes with deficit spending.

19:47 DaemonFC; The main value of health insurance is the fake discounts.

19:47 DaemonFC; If you're uninsured, the hospital actually does charge $80,000 for an appendectomy instead of the $7,000-$8,000 the insurance company gets billed.

19:48 DaemonFC; And then if you can't pay they sue.

19:48 DaemonFC; If everyone got a 90% reduction off the fake price to begin with, no way does anyone want health insurance that costs many hundreds of dollars per month.

19:48 DaemonFC; Cheaper to just set it aside in case something happens, or to set up a payment plan.

19:49 DaemonFC; The network discount and fake prices essentially force people to buy fake insurance.

19:49 DaemonFC; Insurance doesn't pay most of the bill. It's a contractual write-down followed by you paying 20-30% of what's left.

19:50 DaemonFC; So the real spread is like maybe $5,000 on an appendectomy.

19:50 bnchs; i remember when minecraft was bought by microsoft

19:51 DaemonFC; Most people don't use their insurance for anything because it doesn't even start paying anything until they hit a $6,000-$8,000 deductible.

19:51 MinceR; i remember when terminal reality and ensemble studios were bought by microsoft

19:51 bnchs; they forced all the users to have an xbox account

19:51 DaemonFC; So it's totally possible that you pay $800 a month for insurance, you get an appendectomy, there's the contractual write down, and you STILL pay the entire remainder because you haven't met your deductible.

19:51 SomeH4x0r; never pay for DRM

19:51 DaemonFC; Then the insurance company's cost for you that year is close to nothing.

19:51 DaemonFC; :)

19:51 SomeH4x0r; and try to avoid paying for "access"

19:52 bnchs; before microsoft bought it, you could play servers if you already have the game (atleast in android), but after, you have to have an xbox account to play in servers

19:53 bnchs; and it was unnecessary since the servers weren't hosted on microsoft

19:55 bnchs; i meant

19:55 SomeH4x0r; "bought the game" is not correct. You bought premium Mojang account. Which is an entry in the database.

19:56 SomeH4x0r; can't remember, iirc the client files are public, and DRM is enforced through the launcher?

19:57 bnchs; in android

19:57 bnchs; i know the PC version was complicated

19:59 SomeH4x0r; bought an entry in Google Play, allowing you to get download access

19:59 bnchs; yes that's correct

19:59 bnchs; you bought a license in the play store

19:59 SomeH4x0r; "A game" is not even a thing. It only exists in its binary representation.

19:59 bnchs; but i never paid for it

19:59 bnchs; i just downloaded the APK

20:02 SomeH4x0r; "license" maybe, but I'm not certain about its meaning, in particular because of the term being used incorrectly in DRM systems

20:03 SomeH4x0r; is it still a "license" if the entry is inserted with unauthorized access?

20:03 bnchs; like in-app purchases

20:03 bnchs; they're just licenses

20:03 bnchs; that are verified by the program

20:03 SomeH4x0r; or, if it is some "key" which is used by someone who doesn't use their real name for their account

20:03 SomeH4x0r; I understand "license" as a permission given by the copyright holder. By the human.

20:32 bnchs; it's been pushed way too hard to the point that it's actually making the games insecure

20:37 psydroid2; I hope they'll keep pushing it so far until people wisen up and stop buying those games with client-side anti-cheat

20:38 bnchs; console games lack anti-cheat because they rely on the console to do it

20:40 SomeH4x0r; *paying for download access

20:40 SomeH4x0r; I think "buy a game" is meaningless in any way.

20:41 bnchs; i never bought a console game

20:41 bnchs; paid for download access to a console game*

20:41 SomeH4x0r; you buy a CD/buy some kind of access/maybe something else

20:42 bnchs; i download a PKG file and a PSN license file

20:42 bnchs; and it works

20:42 SomeH4x0r; then also paid for DRM access

20:42 SomeH4x0r; I'd not trust it

20:42 bnchs; i never said i paid for it

20:43 SomeH4x0r; oh

20:43 bnchs; the console is jailbroken running a custom firmware

20:43 SomeH4x0r; what is in the PSN file?

20:43 bnchs; the PSN license file is because the PKG file is encrypted

20:43 SomeH4x0r; oh, I see

20:54 schestowitz; but not all

20:56 bnchs; anti-cheats is the most invasive rootkit that happens under gamer's nose

21:02 SomeH4x0r; PS2/PS1

21:02 DaemonFC; Then the cops didn't even charge him with anything.

21:02 bnchs; PS2 doesn't have PSN, obviously its from 2001

21:03 SomeH4x0r; good then

21:03 bnchs; but it's applicable for newer versions

21:03 bnchs; except they're even more strict

21:03 DaemonFC; Makes sense.

21:04 DaemonFC; The biggest source of Holocaust denial is on the left.

21:04 DaemonFC; New York is a leftist shithole with no laws.

21:04 SomeH4x0r; a human was killed. I don't think the headline is any good.

21:04 DaemonFC; Worse than Chicago.

21:05 DaemonFC; It's the sheer volume of crime. The police don't even respond to the majority of it anymore.

21:05 DaemonFC; I'm surprised that they got out to that woman who was passed out and being raped in the Jeep in 15 minutes.

21:05 DaemonFC; Then the black guy's all like "I wanted some pussy, man!" and a few hours later it's "Oh, I don't remember being there!".

21:05 DaemonFC; :/

21:06 bnchs; SomeH4x0r: if i remember in the PS4 and newer, sony can remotely brick your console

21:06 DaemonFC; Like they pulled up, there he was in the Jeep on top of her still raping her, he admitted it, he said his motive "I wanted some pussy, man!".

21:06 SomeH4x0r; so the pattern is that corporations are becoming worse over time

21:06 DaemonFC; Then tries to deny anything happened.

21:07 DaemonFC; I wonder if Kim Foxx can even make this disappear after all of that.

21:08 SomeH4x0r; bnchs: maybe one should use devices which don't support connections to big services for this stuff

22:41 schestowitz-TR; does anyone here wish to help or participate?

22:41 schestowitz-TR; afaik, it is the largest pod

22:41 schestowitz-TR; and it'll be orphaned in 3 week

22:41 schestowitz-TR; *weeks' time

22:42 SomeH4x0r; weird federation?

22:43 SomeH4x0r; they say "decentralized", then it turns out the performance of the entire thing is heavily affected by death of one node?

22:43 schestowitz-TR; no

22:43 schestowitz-TR; but this is the ORIGINAL node

22:45 schestowitz-TR; I think this became an issue for pleroma

22:45 SomeH4x0r; what exactly?

22:46 SomeH4x0r; how does losing an account make you privileged?

22:46 schestowitz-TR; one option is,

22:46 schestowitz-TR; do not allow new accounts to be created

22:47 schestowitz-TR; things gets trickier when you need to upgrade JS or the OS

22:47 schestowitz-TR; and then migrate data of like 300k+ users

22:47 SomeH4x0r; > I recommend configuring user limits (open registration/invite-only/admin invite-only)

22:47 schestowitz-TR; which can take days

22:47 SomeH4x0r; sent to wrong place, noticed few minutes later

22:47 schestowitz-TR; some people suggested,

22:48 schestowitz-TR; ask any active users to pay for the server etc.

22:48 schestowitz-TR; so that no single person foots all the bills

22:55 schestowitz-TR; I have diapora installed

22:56 schestowitz-TR; I experimented with it like a decade ago

22:56 schestowitz-TR; but joindiapora should not be messed around with

22:56 schestowitz-TR; if someone wants to help me run it, contact me

22:56 schestowitz-TR; I'm not sure I want to do this at all

22:57 schestowitz-TR; it's a monumental task and expensive, due to the size of that site

22:57 schestowitz-TR; one option was

22:57 schestowitz-TR; invite-only

22:57 schestowitz-TR; with focus on free softare

22:57 schestowitz-TR; but i cannot say I'd really recommend ANY social control networtk

22:57 schestowitz-TR; this one is at least not curating

22:58 schestowitz-TR; the timelines are linear and based o who you follow

22:58 schestowitz-TR; iirc, joindiapora has like 3 million pages in it

22:59 schestowitz-TR; with millions of comments

22:59 SomeH4x0r; what about webforums and mailing lists?

22:59 schestowitz-TR; that's not what's at stake now

22:59 schestowitz-TR; we want to keep joindiapora online
