00:00 schestowitz; buy thangs for mah iPhone 19 Pro Max OMG Im gonna cum herrr derrr!!!!!,
00:01 schestowitz; 19 already?
00:01 DaemonFC; "I think we should do more to educate potential immigrants coming here in caravans that this country isnt even taking care of its own citizens. Its falling apart, and its a giant real estate scam. They wont like it when they get here and nobody will hand them a work permit if they want one.
00:01 DaemonFC; Of course, the whole point of not handing them one is actually so they will have to work for some crook, for less than minimum wage, with no rights, while the system looks the other way."
00:01 DaemonFC; schestowitz: It was a joke.
00:04 schestowitz; "DRM and the tyranny it promotes makes trying"
00:04 schestowitz; *make
00:08 MinceR; 11 005719 <+schestowitz> owned by sexists
00:08 MinceR; owned by a ruscist
00:13 schestowitz; "The government is panicking because of this, insulting people who choose not to have children, because they finally have no money to do it with, by having the media throw about the term infertility.'
00:13 schestowitz; i saw this today again in relation to korea
00:13 schestowitz; but did not link
00:13 schestowitz; they make it sound like a health issue
00:13 schestowitz; when people are wise enough not to sign near the dots
00:14 schestowitz; give me a lifetime $1,000,000+ biill for 2-3 kids
00:14 schestowitz; MinceR: many ruscists treat women like trash
00:14 schestowitz; or sell them as sex objects
00:16 DaemonFC; If the employees all hate each other, they won't organize.
00:16 MinceR; it's in line with abrahamism
00:16 DaemonFC; So a lot of management is to get the employees to hate each other. By promoting fear, mistrust, and getting them to a point where they're actually being aggressive towards each other.
00:16 schestowitz; "If Google lets you use Docs for free, then it is freeware. But you dont even get the binaries. They can change their mind tomorrow and say it costs $100 a year now. "
00:16 schestowitz; like aws, it's worse than proprietary
00:16 schestowitz; it's a monopoly
00:16 schestowitz; not only can you not change it
00:16 schestowitz; you don't even run it
00:16 schestowitz; and cannot get a copy to run elsewhere
00:16 schestowitz; you are a slave
00:17 psydruid; is this what society is?
00:17 psydruid; nothing more than aggi's neo-feudalism?
00:18 psydruid; what's the whole point of living?
00:18 schestowitz; fighting for correction?
00:18 psydruid; to fulfil oligarchs' wet dreams?
00:18 schestowitz; if you are 70+ you might not care
00:18 psydruid; if you fight for correction they'll jail you
00:18 schestowitz; but at 20+ you might benefit from the change
00:18 DaemonFC; Lower management is to start getting people comfortable with doing unethical things and seeing who is worth promoting further.
00:18 DaemonFC; The rest, you can just dispose of.
00:18 psydruid; because the whole society will need to be corrected
00:18 schestowitz; the problem is that politicians are typically very old
00:19 psydruid; as in broken down and rebuilt from scratch
00:19 schestowitz; and just 'surf' towards retirement
00:19 psydruid; there is nothing that makes any sense in current society
00:19 psydruid; it's ripe for collapse and destruction
00:20 IPFS; () Planet Gemini updated. Latest complete date at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2023-09-10.gmi and so far today at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2023-09-11.gmi with 3-day aggregate at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/allinone.gmi
00:20 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Do as little as you possibly can to survive.
00:20 DaemonFC; Offload your costs onto someone else.
00:20 DaemonFC; As much as possible.
00:20 DaemonFC; Make it a problem for the system.
00:20 DaemonFC; Once enough people do this, the system can't pretend everything is okay anymore.
00:20 schestowitz; that's a good article btw
00:20 DaemonFC; Growth stalls out, people get mad.
00:21 schestowitz; rianne watched the video
00:21 schestowitz; but did not finish, wanted to finish it later
00:21 schestowitz; she used to joke witth her friends,
00:21 DaemonFC; The computers with spyware for the employees is mentioned, but only as a blip.
00:21 schestowitz; how everyone claimed to be "manager"
00:21 DaemonFC; Walmart does this with the Android phones.
00:21 schestowitz; almost everyone... "manager"
00:21 schestowitz; managing who or what?
00:21 DaemonFC; Two other people.
00:21 psydruid; managing his pants
00:21 DaemonFC; While you do the same job they do.
00:22 DaemonFC; For 25 cents more.
00:22 schestowitz; yeah, that
00:22 schestowitz; and 25 more hours per week
00:22 schestowitz; 65 hours
00:22 schestowitz; they go home
00:22 schestowitz; till 9am
00:22 schestowitz; you get a call from the RealBoss at 9pm
00:22 schestowitz; "carl, something went wrong"
00:22 schestowitz; so you start smoking
00:22 DaemonFC; 70 hours a week for like $5,000 more than the others make. Then the government nabs most of that.
00:22 schestowitz; that's how it works
00:23 DaemonFC; It's just ridiculous how much people keep dumping into Microsoft Office alone.
00:23 MinceR; 11 011906 <+psydruid> as in broken down and rebuilt from scratch
00:23 DaemonFC; $1,000 over ten years?
00:23 MinceR; it will probably break itself down
00:23 MinceR; but it won't be rebuilt
00:24 DaemonFC; Almost everything Office does now is something Office has done for over 20 years.
00:24 DaemonFC; They just tinker with the formats so it becomes a mess if you try to keep the old version around, and now it's all "online".
00:25 psydruid; "online" is like a cop-out, so you don't control it anymore
00:25 DaemonFC; They have classes at the library on "employability" skills, and one of them is "Learn Microsoft Office."
00:25 DaemonFC; Because a lot of job postings say "Must know Excel!"
00:25 DaemonFC; Or something.
00:25 schestowitz; some people get a "raise" in words
00:25 schestowitz; work harder, we will add "senior"
00:25 schestowitz; the catch is,
00:26 DaemonFC; Walmart makes up its own jargon.
00:26 schestowitz; pride is not compensation
00:26 psydruid; I would convert all my old Office documents to ODF and store them (in addition to the original format(s) perhaps)
00:26 DaemonFC; It's not "HR Manager".
00:26 DaemonFC; It's "People Lead".
00:26 schestowitz; and you will spend even LESS time in the home you pay a hefty mortgage on
00:26 DaemonFC; They just keep reinventing words.
00:26 DaemonFC; The HR person doesn't even know how to do anything.
00:27 DaemonFC; They just sit there while the computer makes a schedule and runs everything and tell you "go online at home" to get your W2 or something.
00:27 DaemonFC; They outsourced compliance with FMLA and Short Term Disability payments to "Sedgewick".
00:28 DaemonFC; By outsourcing "compliance", Walmart doesn't have to directly employ anyone and they can leave that to a company whose only job is to comply with employment laws to the minimum level possible, not cost Walmart a lot of money, and get sued if they fuck it up.

00:33 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Found a can of mushroom soup that expired last september.
00:33 DaemonFC; Gonna use it in a casserole tomorrow.
00:33 DaemonFC; I do this all the time. The USDA says if the can is not rusted, bulging, or dented, it should be safe "indefinitely".

00:34 DaemonFC; So if the government admits that the can is good for several years after the date on the can, why are food manufacturers allowed to put that date on there?

00:35 TR News; Yesterday morning (Saturday) it was still cool and overcast. The weather report said the sun was going to come out around 15:30, so I thought I'd go out before that. It was already really muggy before noon, though, and by the time I got into the city the sun came out and I thought the muggines was coming back." gopher://sdf.org:70/0/users/nm03/2023/SEP2023/entry_4

00:36 schestowitz; DaemonFC: because of the chemicals in it
00:36 schestowitz; what does usda say about browish water in a pale?
00:37 MinceR; so that they don't have to take responsibility for its quality forever
00:37 TR News; "Recently I was looking up an app on the Play Store and the screenshots for it showed an S7 Edge. It kind of got my juices going as I used to have one myself and I still think it's a good looking device." gopher://sdf.org:70/0/users/nm03/2023/SEP2023/entry_2
00:37 DaemonFC; But.... Eventually they do become unsafe. My grandmother improperly stored hundreds of cans in her garage, for years. Then five years after the date on the cans, while they were bulging, brought them to mom and her ex-husband and said "Now there's nothing wrong with these. They say they're expired but that's not true!"
00:37 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:36 pm] <schestowitz> what does usda say about browish water in a pale?
00:37 DaemonFC; That would be under the EPA, actually.
00:38 DaemonFC; The EPA only regulates water systems that serve a certain number of people.
00:38 DaemonFC; So Matt GULAG's personal water supply is likely not regulated by them, especially if he's gotten it out of some nasty well.
00:38 DaemonFC; The FDA has the same regulations for bottled water, but doesn't inspect any bottled water.
00:39 DaemonFC; So the regulations have the force of law, but nobody knows if bottled water would violate the regulations.
00:39 DaemonFC; I don't buy bottled water.
00:39 DaemonFC; Another pointless use of money.
00:39 DaemonFC; I have unlimited water coming out of the tap.
00:40 DaemonFC; I see people coming out of Walmart sometimes with three carts chained together by the child safety belts, all full of bottled water.
00:40 DaemonFC; What a waste of money.
00:40 DaemonFC; $150 to fill up three carts with water.
00:40 TR News; stream 4 gemini://jmax.flounder.online/gemlog/2023-09-10.gmi "like to lots give many to mots les mots justs just enough touch to touch what must be what must in line at the lines across between and through."

00:42 schestowitz; <DaemonFC> $150 to fill up three carts with water.
00:43 schestowitz; i saw that days ago
00:43 schestowitz; some people pay too much for lastic
00:43 schestowitz; and plastic that cannot be recycled, either
00:44 DaemonFC; It's just stupid. I have to pay the vet $600 to cut a growth off of my cat.
00:45 DaemonFC; But people pay this for 3 months of water that's worse than what comes out of the kitchen sink?
00:45 TR News; A good (and new) Gemini index gemini://sl1200.dystopic.world/links/linksgemini.gmi
00:45 schestowitz; marketing, ryan, marketing
00:45 schestowitz; water is like 80% of your body
00:46 schestowitz; so you need to buy loads of plastic
00:46 schestowitz; will make you live till 130
00:46 TR News; "I went from being a copyright zealot to being a copyright abolitionist (this was in 1999 so most of yall know me after). I realized the limitless potential of sharing & caring. Copyright abolitionism was also my gateway to anti- and post-capitalist politics" gemini://idiomdrottning.org/one-eighties
00:49 schestowitz; DaemonFC: reality strikes:
00:49 schestowitz; (rant starts)
00:49 schestowitz; you buy water in plastic
00:49 schestowitz; add hundreds in expenses per year per person
00:49 DaemonFC; I was never happy about copyright honestly. To be honest I've mostly acted as though it doesn't exist.
00:49 schestowitz; luxuty foods/gourmet/eating out in restaurants
00:49 schestowitz; thousands more spent per year
00:50 DaemonFC; Nobody reads those licenses and they're very long, which means everyone has violated copyright at some point because you almost can't avoid it.
00:50 schestowitz; you work in a stressful job to keep up with these costs
00:50 schestowitz; and lose sleep
00:50 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Steal the napkins!
00:50 schestowitz; and then any perceived gains from expensive (not the same as health) foods
00:50 DaemonFC; PLUNDER THEM!
00:50 schestowitz; are worse than offset by the added stress
00:50 schestowitz; so you die before 65
00:50 schestowitz; congrats
00:50 DaemonFC; schestowitz: It made me laugh when Frosty Graham died. Multi-millionaire, IBM guy.
00:51 DaemonFC; And he was stealing straws and ketchup from McDonalds.
00:51 schestowitz; the powerpoint guy just died
00:51 schestowitz; quite young
00:51 schestowitz; considering his wealth
00:51 schestowitz; 73, iirc
00:51 schestowitz; like dennis richie
00:51 schestowitz; but richie probably lacked good exercise, food, sunlight
00:51 DaemonFC; Yeah, wealth doesn't mean you'll live forever. Steve Jobs.
00:52 schestowitz; Bill Gates
00:52 DaemonFC; He could have lived longer but he spent his money on woo woo instead of cancer treatments.
00:52 schestowitz; yes, he too can die any time, the verdict is out on that one
00:52 schestowitz; Jobs was not the smart Steve
00:52 schestowitz; Woz was
00:52 schestowitz; Woz is fat but still alive and sharp
00:52 DaemonFC; Steve Wozniak technically still works at Apple.
00:52 DaemonFC; They let him keep an honorary job title.
00:53 schestowitz; marketing mascots
00:53 schestowitz; btw, what does vint cerf do at google?
00:53 schestowitz; emphasis on "do"?
00:53 schestowitz; not WEI, surely
00:53 DaemonFC; schestowitz: There is a very devoted community to Mac OS 9.
00:53 DaemonFC; Even now!
00:53 MinceR; not sure about "sharp"
00:53 schestowitz; c sharp
00:53 schestowitz; bashing FOSS
00:54 MinceR; did he finally came to terms with what free software is about?
00:54 DaemonFC; They keep old machines going. Including ones that never officially supported booting into it.
00:54 MinceR; even if he did, it took him ages
00:54 schestowitz; but he's not a vegetable
00:54 DaemonFC; They modify firmwares and figure out how to port newer software to it.
00:54 MinceR; not the brightest bulb in the bucket
00:54 schestowitz; apple standards, MinceR
00:54 MinceR; yeah
00:54 schestowitz; ipod, ipad, ios, blah blah
00:54 DaemonFC; I don't know what technical merit OS 9 had vs. Mac OS X except OS X had really big icons.
00:54 schestowitz; i was making fun of how their devices exploit fools
00:54 MinceR; OS9 looked less ridiculous
00:54 schestowitz; and only work with one another
00:55 DaemonFC; Like, absurdly big considering the screen sizes.
00:55 schestowitz; simple transfer of files from one computer to another is hard
00:55 schestowitz; unless you're the
00:55 MinceR; OSuX was built on better foundations, but they shat into those every chance they got
00:55 schestowitz; ipod, ipad, ios, blah blah typo
00:55 schestowitz; then there is some "app"
00:55 DaemonFC; OS 9 did look a lot less ridiculous than OS X.
00:55 MinceR; they glued CMU Mach to the "free"BSD kernel just because they thought it would give them the right to claim it's a "microkernel"
00:56 schestowitz; and "UNIX"
00:56 DaemonFC; It was the 90s though. People were still practical about how they did their computing.
00:56 schestowitz; the Apple "UNIX" store
00:56 MinceR; oh yeah
00:56 DaemonFC; No resources for $20,000 hammers and $50,000 toilet seats.
00:56 schestowitz; "app" for a "flashlight"
00:56 bnchs; what OS9 are you talking about
00:56 DaemonFC; Mac
00:56 MinceR; "UNIX" with massive blobs, no settings, built exclusively for idiots
00:56 MinceR; aka not unix
00:56 bnchs; god damn, microware's case should have won
00:56 bnchs; look at all these mac fans saying OS 9
00:56 DaemonFC; schestowitz: That's how I describe how applications squander resources these days.
00:56 MinceR; there are mac fans in the room with us?
00:57 DaemonFC; Like those Pentagon budgets with $10,000 ashtrays, $20,000 hammers, $50,000 toilet seats.
00:57 schestowitz; <MinceR> there are mac fans in the room with us?
00:57 schestowitz; macs need fanc
00:57 schestowitz; fans
00:57 schestowitz; ppc, intel
00:57 schestowitz; now some m-something with more capacity than one needs
00:57 schestowitz; maybe for "modern" web
00:57 schestowitz; or "apps{"
00:58 schestowitz; they could make PCs that take batteries like AAA
00:58 schestowitz; or 5 volts
00:58 schestowitz; but no
00:58 MinceR; too bad
00:58 schestowitz; need to sell $3000 PCs
00:58 MinceR; steve "blow" jobs hated fans
00:58 MinceR; that's why the crApple III melted itself
00:58 MinceR; and why every one of their laptops is shit
00:58 MinceR; well, part of it
00:58 schestowitz; plasticware
00:59 schestowitz; i'm told they used to integrate better materials
00:59 MinceR; also why their early macintoys had no hard drives
00:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
00:59 MinceR; suuuure
00:59 schestowitz; maybe they deemed it less profitable
00:59 schestowitz; as the consumer was too dumb to notice
00:59 MinceR; i've heard the bullshit about how their fashion accessories are so special because of the special materials like glass and metals
00:59 schestowitz; like "modern" offices
01:00 schestowitz; metal frames and thin glass
01:00 schestowitz; platic pipes for water
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:43 pm] <IsambardPrince> A vasectomy is a great investment. Don't tell any women you think are trying to trick you into getting them pregnant.
01:00 MinceR; from people who are too stupid to understand that most of those had to be plastic and silicon and less glamorous metals because that's how electronics work
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:57 pm] <IsambardPrince> [9/10/23 6:50 pm] <JesseDesu> i want to populate the galaxy tho
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:57 pm] <IsambardPrince> You really don't.
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:58 pm] <IsambardPrince> Unless you like opening letters from the "family court" starting with "YOU ARE HEREBY COMMANDED TO...."
01:00 schestowitz; they make homes now like they make appliances
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:58 pm] <IsambardPrince> Don't people get enough letters from the government like this?
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:58 pm] <IsambardPrince> They want to get more, and lose their paycheck too? Because it felt good to fuck someone for 10 minutes?
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:59 pm] <IsambardPrince> The first time I got a letter from a court that said "YOU ARE HEREBY COMMANDED TO...." blah blah blah....
01:00 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 6:59 pm] <IsambardPrince> I thought, "Well, that's awfully rude. Who are these people who think they can command me to do something? I didn't vote on this."
01:00 schestowitz; to last 10 times less the time they used to
01:01 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 7:0 pm] <IsambardPrince> Voting is basically a charade.
01:01 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 7:1 pm] <IsambardPrince> It's one of the many heads of the Beast. You know. Make disempowered people feel like they have buy-in, into a system that does not give a fuck about them and will do most of the same things regardless of who wins the election.
01:01 schestowitz; i know people who worked just to pay the child they cannot see
01:01 schestowitz; it's mental hell
01:01 schestowitz; you're stuck there being abused by people
01:01 schestowitz; clients, bosses
01:02 schestowitz; just to tick some box
01:02 schestowitz; the states likes this though
01:02 schestowitz; you breed and then become a slave
01:02 schestowitz; state
01:02 schestowitz; 1) be a slave
01:02 schestowitz; 2) breed future slaves
01:02 schestowitz; 3) OBEY!
01:03 schestowitz; 4) die before 67... and we'll make it 69 by the time you get near
01:04 DaemonFC; [9/10/23 7:2 pm] <IsambardPrince> It lets people vent their frustration without anything actually changing, in a meaningful way. You elect the "opposition" and they become the government, and work with the party that was "defeated" to do all the same things. Wars, people eating out of the garbage cans at the train stations, country being invaded by people your tax money buys $300 a night hotel rooms.
01:04 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Once they're paying you retirement money they want you dead five minutes ago.
01:06 schestowitz; yes
01:06 schestowitz; they can help
01:06 schestowitz; extended vesion
01:06 schestowitz; 1) be born
01:06 schestowitz; 2) cry
01:07 schestowitz; 3) mom and dad will consume to stop the crying
01:07 schestowitz; 4) get trained to be a slave (don't be illiterate unless peasantry is your think)
01:07 schestowitz; 5) specialise (for the vocational slavery)
01:07 schestowitz; 6) take the firm loan
01:08 schestowitz; 7) be a slave to pay the loan
01:08 schestowitz; 8) make future slaves (aka "children") to remain indebted

01:09 DaemonFC; Biden: "We talked about making sure the third world, excuse me, the third world...."
01:09 schestowitz; 10) get promotion, so your slave hours increase and you only ever sleep in the "home" you don't really own
01:09 schestowitz; 11) get a car with the money you earned from the promotion

02:00 DaemonFC; I would say that I have certain views that are right-wing, some that are more Libertarian, and a few that are outright Marxist. It's not really so easy to decide what to support because any one of those is a disaster, most of the time, you know? There's always someone who ends up controlling someone else and that's the part where it all falls down to me. You know, the idea that in the end there will be someone bossing me around.
02:00 DaemonFC; I don't like to be meddled with, especially by outside forces who have someone else's interests at heart. You know, sending me letters saying I'm "commanded" to do things.
02:01 DaemonFC; I try to avoid this. Avoid giving them excuses to do this.

02:31 DaemonFC; She's not a very deep person.
02:33 DaemonFC; It is interesting that people see "brands" as particularly important even if they're not even the best, and even if they cost more. Like, you go down the cereal aisle at the store.
02:33 DaemonFC; Kellogg's Raisin Bran Crunch is $4.99, and "Great Value Crunchy Raisin Bran" is $2.48 for the same amount.
02:34 DaemonFC; Why do some people pay more? It's everything from actual, just food items, where there's really no discernible difference, to luxury goods.
02:35 DaemonFC; A utilitarian view to "smart phones" shows there's not really much difference between iPhones and Androids except iPhones do less and cost more, so the utilitarian argument says get an Android if you need a smartphone.
02:35 DaemonFC; But Apple has a huge marketing campaign, and you essentially pay them, to brainwash yourself.
02:36 DaemonFC; The cost of "brands" tends to go well beyond their utilitarian value. Sometimes the thing doesn't even have any practical use at all.

03:27 jrmu; As well as figuring out how to revitalize our own economy.
03:28 jrmu; The sad truth is that unless we can provide jobs and income to our own developers, they will keep working for Big Tech
03:45 DaemonFC; Right, a lot of Free Software is sort of a byproduct of something else, but useful in its own right.
03:46 DaemonFC; Facebook produced ZStandard. ZStandard isn't bad software. It's useful. It doesn't help or hurt Facebook if I use it.
03:46 DaemonFC; If it helps me to use it, I should use it.
03:47 DaemonFC; Fast data compression is always useful.
03:47 DaemonFC; Computers are I/O machines. If compression helps deal with components that are bottlenecking, it can effectively speed up the computer.
03:48 DaemonFC; It's trading some resource you usually have too much of on a modern system, like CPU cycles, for something you can't get enough of, like RAM capacity and throughput or disk drive throughput and space.

06:00 DaemonFC; That's nice. Walmart shorted me my loaf of bread.
06:08 DaemonFC; "The user trying to submit review is opted out." -Walmart
06:08 DaemonFC; Lots of people are getting this, apparently.
06:08 DaemonFC; The reviews are being flooded with a lot of fake reviews from the manufacturer's Web sites and they seem to be disabling real reviews.
06:09 DaemonFC; I ran into a lot of products at Walmart that have had a severe decline in quality, from cereals to frozen pizza.
06:09 DaemonFC; Red Baron pizzas taste like rancid cat piss now, and hardly have any toppings, and the crust really sucks.
06:10 DaemonFC; 5 stars all over the place.
06:10 DaemonFC; I was trying to leave a 3 star review of their crunchy raisin bran. It's not bad, but it's more like frosted flakes with the occasional raisin.
06:10 DaemonFC; The national brand usually has a lot of raisins in it.
06:11 DaemonFC; I guess to get the price down, Walmart put less raisins in it. Just enough so you occasionally get a raisin and it's legal to call it a raisin bran.
06:14 schestowitz; Walmart is a bad company
06:14 DaemonFC; Yeah.
06:14 DaemonFC; I suppose I could lodge a complaint with the federal trade commission about the raisin bran.
06:14 DaemonFC; The ratio is off.
06:14 DaemonFC; This sounds like the stuff where "Illinois Man Sues Walmart Over Raisin Bran".
06:15 DaemonFC; Like, you pay for raisin bran, why should you have to buy boxes of raisins to pour in the raisin bran?
06:16 DaemonFC; schestowitz: So it silently dropped my bread and claimed that the substitute I asked for was also unavailable.
06:16 DaemonFC; So they don't actually finalize that charge.
06:16 DaemonFC; But it's a nuisance.
06:16 DaemonFC; Because you drive off after they say you got your order, you come home, try to make a sandwich. Where'd the bread go?
06:17 DaemonFC; You start looking everywhere. Then you go to complain and it says they didn't have it.

07:51 schestowitz; maybe not end users

07:52 schestowitz; like proprietary backup programs

08:07 DaemonFC; No soot.
08:07 schestowitz; the buick?

08:07 DaemonFC; The 3800 having soot problems isn't anything new.
08:07 DaemonFC; I've had them before that did this or worse.

08:09 DaemonFC; I also haven't consumed any oil so far, none.

08:10 DaemonFC; I've never had one that developed fuel related problems until now.
08:11 DaemonFC; I had them tearing it apart to clean out the deposits and they found that the rust and gunk from the old coolant I thought I'd flushed completely had clogged one of the passages.
08:11 DaemonFC; So they cleared that out too and replaced those gaskets.

12:20 schestowitz; just so that russia and china don't "get them" first
12:20 schestowitz; the other day, maybe last night, i posted an article about it
12:20 schestowitz; after the ukraine invasion us lost many allies
12:20 schestowitz; not in europe
12:20 schestowitz; but outside europe
12:20 schestowitz; and russian economy migt recover soon
12:20 schestowitz; some sales are back to pore-war levels
12:20 schestowitz; inc. planes
12:20 schestowitz; to vietnam too
12:20 schestowitz; they buy from russia
12:21 schestowitz; us sphere of influencer grew narrower
12:21 schestowitz; g-10 in india refused to issue condemnation of the ukraine invasion
12:21 psydruid; BRICS economies surpassed those of the G7 earlier this year
12:21 psydruid; mainly China and India
12:21 schestowitz; even the europeans, not politicians, are increasingly sceptical about us "roping us in" for the second Cold War
12:21 schestowitz; with Russia
12:22 psydruid; so why should they care at this point what the US and its allies think and want
12:22 psydruid; there is only one way forward with or without the G7
12:23 psydruid; probably without as the only strategy at this point is to hold back the development of the world outside of the West
12:23 schestowitz; btw, is gmx in some fieve-eyes colab?
12:24 psydruid; I don't know, I've never used it
12:24 psydruid; aggi/activelow might now
12:24 schestowitz; what is the relationbship/collab between the german mail relayer to anglo-saxon (yes,m saxony is german) verse?
12:25 *psydruid looks to see if there is a German in the room
12:26 schestowitz; they might not know
12:26 schestowitz; but bnd has collaborations with five-eyes
12:26 schestowitz; so the emails from/to gmx might be shared across to GAFAM and their bailout sponsors
12:27 schestowitz; after bailout biden gave "hololens" (hype) bailout to Microsoft
12:27 schestowitz; 22,000,000,000 dollars
12:27 schestowitz; seems like the "HEY HI" hype might be excuse for another bailout
12:27 psydruid; the only way to be sure is to self-host
12:27 schestowitz; what do us taxpayers like mandy and DaemonFC stand to GAIN by bailing out BILL GATES... AGAIN?
12:27 psydruid; but obviously you can't share that e-mail address with everyone
12:27 psydruid; because then you would be spammed
12:27 schestowitz; Did he not get enough from his vaccine patents?
12:28 schestowitz; <psydruid> the only way to be sure is to self-host
12:28 schestowitz; not email
12:28 schestowitz; it does not solve the issue
12:28 schestowitz; two sides communicate
12:28 psydruid; yes
12:28 schestowitz; so if you self-host mail and contact with someone@gmail.com]
12:28 schestowitz; Gulag and NSA et al see all the comms, in both directions
12:28 psydruid; but if I only share my e-mail address with trusted people who also self-host, it can be usable
12:28 schestowitz; I self-host mumble
12:29 schestowitz; for that, taxt and audiol chats are private
12:29 schestowitz; *text
12:29 psydruid; for a very small circle of people admittedly
12:29 schestowitz; this lack of choice is by design
12:29 schestowitz; so-called 'powes that be
12:29 schestowitz; and the media keeps calling Facebook "end to end"
12:29 schestowitz; to confuse people
12:30 psydruid; I had a private non-GAFAM e-mail address until earlier this year, when the service went offline
12:30 psydruid; after that I would only self-host, so you maintain full-control
12:31 schestowitz; if yolu control the domain it'll only go offline when you want it to
12:34 psydruid; so that's what I'm going to do in the future
12:34 psydruid; ARM and RISC-V SBCs are cheap
12:35 psydruid; so you can run them at very low cost
12:35 psydruid; the US empire hates that and would rather promote the clown, but I don't care
12:39 psydruid; not that the Russian empire is any better, you'd better behave like a Russian or else ...

21:53 DaemonFC; Flu shots today.
21:53 DaemonFC; The pharmacist is an advertiser for other "products" now.
21:54 DaemonFC; She asked if I was going to get the new new COVID shot, I said "Absolutely not." and I explained that we've gotten vaccinated for over a dozen things, including flu shots every year, but explained the 4 COVID shots, then COVID, then COVID pills, then Long COVID, and how the shots made Mandy sicker than COVID and nobody excuses time off work for the shots.
21:54 DaemonFC; Now they want 1,200% the price they were charging the government for things that hurt people more than the disease that's out there.
21:54 DaemonFC; So hard pass.
21:56 DaemonFC; But flu is a different issue entirely. There is different risk/benefit data for flu shots compared with the flu. We've tested the same process they use to make them since the 1940s. We know what to expect in safety and efficacy. They've been around for generations.
21:56 DaemonFC; We lose 60,000 Americans per year to the flu, more or less, and most of those deaths, probably half of them, are unnecessary. If people took their flu shots,we could get it to 30,000.
21:57 DaemonFC; In a particularly nasty year, 100,000 can die of the flu.
21:57 DaemonFC; Of the flu! In an allegedly first world country where over 95% of the public could get the shot for free and the other 5% could pay $20.
21:58 DaemonFC; The US has a lot of climate types, and a lot of the "travel vaccines" that used to be for third world countries are now something you should consider if you're going to Florida.
21:59 DaemonFC; They're getting things like Japanese Encephalitis and Yellow Fever.
22:00 DaemonFC; Maybe when the Democrats finish turning Illinois into a mosquito preserve (no spraying because the pension mess, errr, the debt, I mean the environment of course.) we'll need those here too.
22:00 DaemonFC; Especially with all the illegal immigrants they welcome without testing or vaccinating for anything.

22:04 DaemonFC; And a moving violation!

22:04 DaemonFC; Too soon?
22:05 DaemonFC; You notice how the murderer is the only one in the fucking courtroom wearing a COVID mask?

22:15 TR Bot; FDA approves COVID shots from Moderna and Pfizer : Shots - Health News : NPR
22:15 DaemonFC; Like there was any doubt. Captured agency.
22:16 DaemonFC; "For younger, healthy people, I say: Look, getting the vaccine will reduce your risk of, you know, just being out of school, being out of work for a while. It reduces how much you transmit it. There are a lot of good reasons to get your annual COVID shot," Jha says.
22:16 DaemonFC; Mandy and I were both vaccinated and we both got it, I'd say from one to another.
22:16 DaemonFC; The vaccine is a failure, not commercially, but in the sense that it confers any protection from COVID.
22:17 DaemonFC; Every time they want people to take another shot, less people do.
22:17 DaemonFC; By the time they did the bivalent, only 24% of Americans even took that one.
22:17 DaemonFC; It's because they're realizing, like we had to, firsthand, that the shots are fraud.
22:18 DaemonFC; "It's unclear how many people want another shot. Only 17% of those eligible for the last booster got one."
22:18 DaemonFC; Oh, 17%. I'm sorry.
22:18 DaemonFC; So yeah. 17%. This one will be lower still.
22:18 DaemonFC; Nobody trusts it now. I mean, with flu shots, 50-60% get one every year. Not great, but not 17%.
22:19 DaemonFC; People trust it because it rarely hurts people and it does have some effect against the flu.
22:19 DaemonFC; Like, your odds of being seriously hurt by a flu shot are like 3 million to 1 against.

22:20 DaemonFC; The government has to be sued to turn over the data it has about COVID "safety" because it knows the shots are not safe, it just doesn't want anyone to publish the data it has.
22:22 DaemonFC; schestowitz: They short shifted Mandy tomorrow.
22:22 DaemonFC; Thinking about having him just call off and take hours and come with me to the vet.

22:25 TR Bot; has not stopped forcing Edge on Windows 11 users OSnews
22:26 DaemonFC; You never know who any of the managers will be because they sucker some poor asshole into taking it and then fire them later.
22:38 DaemonFC; I see some things haven't changed about the company since I was there. There were no Android phones with spyware to follow you around and make sure you didn't, gasp, take a pee and get right back to your station without being flagged for flogging.
22:38 DaemonFC; But the part about putting good people in places where their name tag says "manager", but they aren't actually free to change anything.

22:43 DaemonFC; How do you mass incarcerate? First you make people unemployable, then you throw drugs at them.
22:43 DaemonFC; Then you catch them with the drugs and send them to prison.
22:43 DaemonFC; The problem is that people act like this is something they only do to blacks.
22:44 DaemonFC; I know plenty of white people the cops have done this to.
22:44 DaemonFC; Then when you get out, nobody will even look at your job application, so you go back to making crank, and they catch you doing it again, and back to prison.

23:06 DaemonFC; The Chicago Police say if anyone knows who vandalized a Chase Bank that was closed (no people inside, nobody hurt), please tell them.
23:06 DaemonFC; I wouldn't tell them even if I knew. Fuck Chase Bank and Fuck CPD.
23:07 DaemonFC; It's amazing that with a 7% solved murder rate they prioritize a few broken windows at a megabank that rips off everyone in America for over 100 years.

23:50 psydruid; at least Dell and Lenovo admit Secure Boot is useless and even worse anti-competitive
23:50 psydruid; it only took them 15 years to do so
