00:03 TR Bot; GEICO announces major layoffs | Insurance Business America
00:04 DaemonFC; Right after they jacked up my premium.
00:04 DaemonFC; "As reported by Ad Age, GEICOs staff cuts come after a series of challenges the insurer recently announced that it will raise rates in Illinois by 6% and shut 38 of its offices in California, halting sales of insurance in the state. The decision to lay off marketing staff also comes days after other employees announced their intent to unionize."
00:05 DaemonFC; "The insurer is also putting its account with Horizon Media which has represented GEICO for 25 years under review. MediaLink will be handling the review, sources have told marketing magazine Ad Age.
00:05 DaemonFC; Based on spot volume, GEICO was radios 13th largest advertiser for the six months of 2022. According to Media Monitors, the insurer aired 546,753 spots on AM/FM radio during the period."
00:05 DaemonFC; Makes sense. Radio ads are fairly cheap in most markets and most people listen in their car, and they are a car insurance company.
00:05 DaemonFC; If they shut 38 offices in California, then I'm certain more than 75 people got fired.
00:11 DaemonFC; eMarketers Insider Intelligence reports that insurers have long relied upon traditional advertising channels such as cable TV spots and radio ads, but that could soon change. The market research group has forecasted that about 33.1% of the US population will cut their paid TV cord this year, which could signal a significant shift from linear to digital video. But Insider Intelligence also...
00:11 DaemonFC; ...noted that the insurance industrys digital ad spending is slowing down in 2022, compared to last year, though spending this year still hit an impressive $12.15 billion.
00:11 DaemonFC; LOL
00:12 DaemonFC; 12 billion dollars of commercials with geckos and ostriches to convince you to get raped by their company so they can fight you for all the claims.

00:17 DaemonFC; Trying to avoid media coverage of specific numbers, but one poster 5 minutes ago says 350 just in his IT department.
00:17 DaemonFC; They came in and fired everyone.

01:20 DaemonFC; They're mostly like Matthew Garrett's employer. They lose money, then they lose more money, then they lose an incredibly large amount of money, and then they go under.
01:21 DaemonFC; I don't think Geico is collapsing. I think they're "optimizing". The insurance market is saturated.
01:21 DaemonFC; Customers are sticky.
01:22 DaemonFC; The established companies are tired of dealing with redundancies and quietly working together to set up a common system to file claims.
01:22 DaemonFC; The IT department wipeout today that saw 350 lose their jobs their and the claims adjuster layoffs coincide with Geico announcing they're joining Allstate in moving to a common claims management company the other major insurers are already using.
01:23 DaemonFC; They can outsource it and share the expense. They don't like expenses.
01:23 DaemonFC; They like premiums.
01:25 DaemonFC; Matt GULAG's employer will have a hard time trying to convince anyone it's valuable.
01:25 DaemonFC; Their own Sarbanes-Oxley compliance reports show that it isn't.
01:28 DaemonFC; I'd like to know why mjg59_ can't seem to find any honest work that doesn't involve stuff that imposes DRM and lock the computer user out of his property and tech that will flop but says the mission statement is to cause 100s of thousands of truck drivers to lose their jobs.
01:29 DaemonFC; Maybe he wants to cancel RMS because RMS said if he couldn't have found any honest work in computer software, he may have worked as a waiter at a restaurant.
01:29 DaemonFC; Because how are you going to make the world worse doing that?
01:30 DaemonFC; I honestly took the repo job because I figured it would be deadbeats and town drunks who financed TVs and stereos mostly and are trying to stiff the store.
01:31 DaemonFC; And it turned out to be completely different. Baby cribs. They got laid off and couldn't afford to keep the washing machine or a refrigerator.
01:31 DaemonFC; And so all of a sudden I was going out to people's homes and I had to be the one to say "I want your refrigerator and your baby crib now or I'll have to call the sheriff to help me out.".
01:32 DaemonFC; And that sucked. These were not the people that have a pile of empty beer cans but couldn't make their television installment.
01:33 DaemonFC; Most of it just rubbed me as so wrong to be out there threatening these people. The appliances themselves even tended to be on the cheaper end of the spectrum. The computer keeps a remaining value running and each time you get it back it's lost so much cash value that it's unbelievable.
01:34 DaemonFC; You could go in there and buy a $1,000 washing machine that had been in a couple of houses and all it would run you was $200.
01:34 DaemonFC; And the thing was less than a year old.
01:34 DaemonFC; Modern appliances.
01:35 DaemonFC; If the thing breaks down completely and we're still holding it, we have to dispose of it for like $10 in scrap metal.
01:35 DaemonFC; So there's an unannounced side business of selling appliances we know will crap out soon.
01:36 DaemonFC; Rent-to-Own is predatory. I mean if you had $150 you'd go to Walmart and buy this vacuum
01:36 DaemonFC; But here you are agreeing to make payments totaling $600 over the next year.
01:36 DaemonFC; And you have to come by the store every week to do it
01:37 DaemonFC; Like, most Americans are living like this, and mjg59_ doesn't care.
01:37 DaemonFC; He thinks the issue is what I called the mayor of Chicago as to a dramatic reading of why the voters did that.

01:39 DaemonFC; Hey Matt, did you offer him a hand up or are you patting yourself on the back for not being the guy who shouted "Move your ass!"?
01:40 DaemonFC; I mean if you live in a $2.3 million dollar house, you could get the guy a sandwich right?
01:40 DaemonFC; Have fun in Phil Collins' paradise Matt.
01:42 DaemonFC; If it's any consolation, Mayor Lori Beetlejuice Lightfoot doesn't have a plan for homeless people in Chicago. Unless it's to pull a Rahm and send the cops to burn their stuff and beat them within an inch of their life. It's a shame you can't call her a carpet muncher. That's worse than her sending the cops to do that, isn't it?
01:43 DaemonFC; They weren't even bothering anyone. Nobody goes to Lower Lower Wacker. They were down there because it was twenty below zero and that's where the waste heat from places like the Trump building gets blown out.
01:43 DaemonFC; It stays warmer down there because the buildings put out a bunch of waste heat.
01:44 DaemonFC; But the Democrats sent the police down there to beat and burn because they wanted to remind everyone of who daddy is.

03:06 starstreak; i noticed that trend

03:06 highest_cubist_thrills; i still think mincer is wiser than that. everyone has off days
03:08 highest_cubist_thrills; (which may be true, but i take issue with the assumption) <- mjg may or may not be a security expert, but saying that someone isnt a security expert because theyre are a biologist is stupid

08:41 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: More Microsoft propaganda on Reddit. This time in "dataisbeautiful" about how much money they allegedly make.
08:42 DaemonFC; It amazes me they even exist. Their products are downright stodgy. Opera had the "Multiple Document Interface" in their browser in the 1990s.
08:42 schestowitz[TR]; reddit ia paif by Microsoft and Gates for propaganda
08:42 DaemonFC; I tried it out and started using it a lot because I thought it was really neat.
08:42 DaemonFC; All those pages in one browser instance. Saved a ton of RAM.
08:43 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: I don't think I ever paid Microsoft, except maybe some laptop dad bought in the 90s
08:43 schestowitz[TR]; with Windows licence
08:43 DaemonFC; Microsoft said you didn't need tabbed browsing because eventually Windows Explorer would group all of the IE windows.
08:43 schestowitz[TR]; budget laptop, 32mb of ram
08:43 DaemonFC; Missing the point entirely, of course.
08:44 schestowitz[TR]; Opera is said to have invented tabs
08:44 schestowitz[TR]; but...
08:44 schestowitz[TR]; correct me if I'm wrong
08:44 schestowitz[TR]; (same for 'speed dial' btw)
08:44 DaemonFC; Users wanted their browser to have everything right in front of them without having to go poling around the desktop shell looking for things.
08:44 schestowitz[TR]; there was a lot of prior art
08:44 schestowitz[TR]; also, bookmarks on the sidebars are almost like tab
08:44 DaemonFC; Yeah, tabs goes back to 1982 in various other sorts of applications.
08:44 schestowitz[TR]; excepot they don't awaste a TON of RAM
08:45 DaemonFC; Firefox wastes a lot of memory.
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; it does not
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; it did not before
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; like 17 years ago
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; *it does now
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; not before
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; also, check how many files it opens on your syetem
08:45 DaemonFC; Moving back to a single process browser, I see now why multiple-process browsing really sucks.
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; then compare it to netsurf
08:45 schestowitz[TR]; firefox is like 100 times more files
08:46 schestowitz[TR]; when I was a kid the nokia phones didn't need recharging much
08:46 schestowitz[TR]; sure, the phones and batteries were bigger too
08:46 schestowitz[TR]; but it's practical to have cellphones that last long

09:32 DaemonFC; It clashes badly with xdg-open.

09:36 DaemonFC; Hey, Pale Moon has Searx.be as an available add-on.
09:36 schestowitz[TR]; the quality of the packages was not good
09:36 schestowitz[TR]; and it slowed me down at work

09:36 DaemonFC; Fedora has improved greatly.

16:20 highest_cubist_thrills; its just that roy seems to say it straight faced every time
16:20 highest_cubist_thrills; like you cant be a security expert if you phd is in biology-- and i dont think hes joking, i think he just expects that to pass for logic
16:21 highest_cubist_thrills; and since no one (myself included) likes mjg, at least no one here, we are supposed to not care that the argument is silly
16:22 highest_cubist_thrills; the reason i care is that roy uses equally silly logic against good and bad people
16:23 highest_cubist_thrills; not just against people who most likely deserve it like mjg
16:23 highest_cubist_thrills; also roys feud with mjg is largely the two of them playing victim
16:24 highest_cubist_thrills; first mjg stabs the movement in the back (along with thousands of others) and wonders why people are hostile about it
16:24 highest_cubist_thrills; then roy snipes at him constantly and expects him not to get defensive
16:26 highest_cubist_thrills; if either side of the argument was honest i think it would look different
16:27 highest_cubist_thrills; i think itd be more fun that way. also i think its ridiculous because neither of them are interested in staying honest about the other
16:28 highest_cubist_thrills; mjgs brand of dishonesty is based on twisting abstractions and overgeneralisations to fit moral crimes even when they dont
16:29 highest_cubist_thrills; and if you press him about it in realtime he may back off, or, if you dont trust him he may simple lean on other fabrications (but you cant always prove theyre fabrications even if you have some reason to suspect)
16:29 highest_cubist_thrills; hes never (ever) going to recognise the damage his spanish inquisition routine did, and he doesnt care about that
16:30 highest_cubist_thrills; hes self-righteous
16:30 highest_cubist_thrills; roy is similarly self-righteous and also fabricates things, and i know this for a fact because ive seen him lie about things that 1. i know cannot be true and 2. he cannot know are true
16:31 highest_cubist_thrills; roys done less damage, but he pretends hes the antidote when really hes just a much smaller version of the same problem (imo)
16:32 *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)
16:32 highest_cubist_thrills; he doesnt have the firepower to fight corporate bullshit with nonsense
16:32 highest_cubist_thrills; but he can (and does) pretend.
16:32 highest_cubist_thrills; it would be more effective if he were honest
16:33 highest_cubist_thrills; in the doses hes capable of supplying, truth is stronger medicine. he even uses it as a catalyst to strengthen his nonsense
16:34 highest_cubist_thrills; but we can also pretend that everything we dont like is dying.
16:34 highest_cubist_thrills; while ignoring the fact that things we actually care about are dying
16:35 highest_cubist_thrills; hes a bit like kryten in the first red dwarf book, serving tea to a dead crew because hes mad
16:35 highest_cubist_thrills; and acting like everything is fine (kryten at least, is finally rescued from this. i doubt the same will be said for roy)
16:36 highest_cubist_thrills; or not "everything is fine" but still denying the BULK of the problem

16:39 highest_cubist_thrills; but still denying the BULK of the problem <- and mjg becomes the punching bag / scapegoat for all this
16:40 highest_cubist_thrills; making him the whipping boy for the entire counterrevolution isnt entirely fair, though... he did feature prominenently even in the PRE-coup (or the actual beginning of the coup) in 2018.
16:40 highest_cubist_thrills; and hes been around in various stages of it
16:40 highest_cubist_thrills; so if people want to give him more shit than average, ok
16:41 highest_cubist_thrills; we wont ever figure out who the leader is
16:41 highest_cubist_thrills; either because there isnt one, it was LED by corporations
16:41 highest_cubist_thrills; or because there isnt one, they ACTUALLY managed to have a successful coup in a leaderless fashion (possible but SO doubtful)
16:42 highest_cubist_thrills; or because they wouldnt want the coup leader to suffer the same fate as stallman (even though they might whether we know who it is or not)
16:42 highest_cubist_thrills; (god willing)
16:43 highest_cubist_thrills; still, if youre going to hang mjg
16:43 highest_cubist_thrills; id rather see it done honestly, not with an endless stream of nonsense from a compulsive liar
16:43 highest_cubist_thrills; lies are what made the whole thing so dirty
16:44 highest_cubist_thrills; roy gave me shit for "trying to cancel the cancellers"
16:44 highest_cubist_thrills; hes the one using their tactics to do it.
16:44 highest_cubist_thrills; so yeah, im not going to bless that. joke if you want, but say youre kidding if youre going to bullshit.
16:45 highest_cubist_thrills; the distinction really matters here
16:45 highest_cubist_thrills; otherwise hes really stooping to their level, while hes blaming ME for doing so.
16:45 highest_cubist_thrills; and thats really par for the course imo.
16:45 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean thats typical, but it doesnt mean ill stand for it
16:46 schestowitz[TR]; <highest_cubist_thrills> roy gave me shit for "trying to cancel the cancellers"

16:50 highest_cubist_thrills; the movement had already weakened itself, with the help of open source
16:50 highest_cubist_thrills; open source also dealt the death blow
16:50 highest_cubist_thrills; calling the traitors "free software" advocates is cynical
16:51 highest_cubist_thrills; they work for open source. open source and the coup are about the same thing
16:51 schestowitz[TR]; sfc=ossi 1.1
16:51 highest_cubist_thrills; smearing free software and handing control of our computing over to corporations
16:51 highest_cubist_thrills; i want nothing to do with the traitors, or any projects they lead
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; on this we agree
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; did you see the latest on osi?
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; and opensource.com (IBM)?
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; microsoft is taking over the domains

16:53 schestowitz[TR]; after getting 22,000 million dollars from bailout biden
16:53 highest_cubist_thrills; corporate bailouts are what the fake left does best
16:54 highest_cubist_thrills; obama practically led to the coining of the term "bailouts" (it was used before but never as often in history imo)
16:54 highest_cubist_thrills; obama was the bailout king
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; no, he said "STIMULUS"
16:54 highest_cubist_thrills; his critics said bailouts
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; now bernanke nets a fake award
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; for passing all the capital to the people who defrauded us
16:55 frog; slightly off-topic, just finished a first cover letter for a job-placement, explaining them the entire technological basis of theirs falls apart like a house of cards
16:55 schestowitz[TR]; so for another 15 years they can plunder some more
16:55 schestowitz[TR]; and still lead to a depression
16:55 schestowitz[TR]; deeper than before
16:55 frog; as soon as my minimum acceptance criteria are applied to their software
16:55 highest_cubist_thrills; "im the head of STATE! youre like a head of cabbage-- bout to get SMACKED! by my STIIIIIMULOUS PACKAGE!"-- obama vs mitt romney, erb
16:56 frog; they're doing some software for Amazon market-space, and to keep it simple i explained i couldn't at least navigate amazon web site anymore with web-browsers which could pass acceptance criteria
16:56 highest_cubist_thrills; lincoln crashes the party and says the president shall not be the shiniest of two turds
16:56 frog; although those web-browsers implement relevant w3c standards, there isn't amazon services available with them anymore
16:56 highest_cubist_thrills; but of course hes dead, and yes he shall
16:58 highest_cubist_thrills; but of course hes dead <- ive read a webcomic where his lincolns ghost wears a lincoln suit and people who dont know better think hes alive (but he mostly keeps to himself for obvious reasons)

17:10 highest_cubist_thrills; if he gets enough he will find a way to get them processed into a soft pillow fill that he can cuddle at night
17:11 highest_cubist_thrills; of course i dont actually believe that hes single-handedly devalued the company
17:11 highest_cubist_thrills; after all, theyre a scam to begin with, right
17:12 highest_cubist_thrills; but its a fun angle, as the actress said to the bishop
17:12 frog; i am still hesitant to send the email, although it's a good job application of mine
17:13 frog; however, whenever i do this, it triggers close to clinical depression, having worked and studied for a decade, and then some HR wipes it in 5minutes
17:15 highest_cubist_thrills; "Its a scam, says George Hotz, whose company Comma.ai Inc. makes a driver-assistance system similar to Tesla Inc.s Autopilot. These companies have squandered tens of billions of dollars. "
17:15 frog; and something else, i do not want to work with software and hardware products, which don't pass acceptance criteria myself
17:15 highest_cubist_thrills; thats what im referring to with "theyre a scam to begin with, right"
17:16 highest_cubist_thrills; i dunno, id personally classify anyone seeking purchase by microsoft to be a scam, in a very loose sense
17:16 highest_cubist_thrills; theres no better way to shit on either your shareholders, your customers/users or potentially both

19:38 highest_cubist_thrills; but as far as running the fsf goes
19:38 highest_cubist_thrills; the fsf was supposed to be about free software, its been taken over by open source
19:38 highest_cubist_thrills; open source was eric raymonds narcissistic ego trip bolex ripoff fsf
19:38 highest_cubist_thrills; its ok to make your own fsf, theyre not against that
19:39 highest_cubist_thrills; he made a bullshit (dishonest) version that started selling out the first year it existed
19:39 *starstreak has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
19:39 highest_cubist_thrills; roy says it used to be different-- its gotten worse
19:39 highest_cubist_thrills; it has gotten worse. perens accused them of hurting free software in year one
19:39 highest_cubist_thrills; im taking perens over roy on this
19:39 highest_cubist_thrills; for one because you can go verify that what perens said was true
19:40 *starstreak (~starstreak@muarsy2vret2q.irc) has joined #techrights
19:40 highest_cubist_thrills; it was eric raymonds ego trip and for perens it was (at best) a naive mistake
19:40 highest_cubist_thrills; ever since then its turned into (quite deliberately through plans and schemes which raymond himself thankfully exposed-- his biggest contribution imo)
19:40 highest_cubist_thrills; (not enough to make up for what he destroyed but certainly a mitigation)
19:41 highest_cubist_thrills; ever since open source has been a trojan horse for corporations to invade
19:41 highest_cubist_thrills; open source has also been completely unfair to stallman, so that eric raymond can wave his kkk dick at the world
19:41 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean hes basically jk rowling to osis hogwarts school of corporate fuckery
19:42 highest_cubist_thrills; so as far as you running the fsf, youd be leaning open source
19:42 highest_cubist_thrills; but it cant hurt them now
19:42 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean, i dont think you love corporations
19:43 highest_cubist_thrills; i think you still believe, like perens did, that open source tactics will work
19:43 highest_cubist_thrills; the goal of free software was to completely liberate the user-- to make ALL software free
19:43 highest_cubist_thrills; to have users control their computing
19:43 highest_cubist_thrills; and open source has taken them farther and farther from that
19:44 highest_cubist_thrills; its been a counterrevolution
19:44 highest_cubist_thrills; linucks is counterrevolution os
19:44 highest_cubist_thrills; but if you took control of (whats left of) the fsf
19:44 highest_cubist_thrills; it would be a signal to more people that fsf was sympathetic to open source
19:45 highest_cubist_thrills; and i cant imagine how that would hurt anything, since the fsf is dead anyway
19:45 highest_cubist_thrills; i used to be open source (more than a decade ago) just like mjg was (more than ten years ago) transphobic
19:45 highest_cubist_thrills; one of the reason i fight it so hard is i think it suckers people with its bullshit
19:46 highest_cubist_thrills; so its not morally wrong to support open source if you believe its an actual good in the world
19:46 highest_cubist_thrills; its a mistake
19:46 highest_cubist_thrills; and one thing techrights never talks about (which is too bad) is that open source is calling it "free software" now
19:46 highest_cubist_thrills; that would have been a good thing, when free software still existed and they were pointing to it
19:47 highest_cubist_thrills; so free software could speak for itself (something open source took over, speaking for free software like auti$m $peaks talks for people on the spectrum)
19:47 highest_cubist_thrills; but since free software isnt saying anything, because its cancelled with lies
19:47 *AdmFubar has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
19:48 highest_cubist_thrills; open source can speak for it and wear its terminology like hanibal wearing the face he cut off a prison guard
19:48 MinceR; "I'm that man."
19:48 highest_cubist_thrills; they can fly the fsf flag and say "free software" and it still means "handing free software and its users over to corporate control"
19:48 highest_cubist_thrills; but its called free software.
19:49 highest_cubist_thrills; its like when kenny dressed as spenny and sang about how he misses getting buggered by his grandpa
19:49 highest_cubist_thrills; thats what open source does to free software these days
19:49 highest_cubist_thrills; so it was at one point good that they called it "free software"
19:49 highest_cubist_thrills; but now its just a joke.
19:50 highest_cubist_thrills; its only good for opponents to say "free software" when free software is around to say "well heres what it means"
19:50 highest_cubist_thrills; that was the point of not calling it open source
19:50 highest_cubist_thrills; but free software isnt here anymore
19:50 highest_cubist_thrills; its dead, eminem has it locked up in his basement
19:50 highest_cubist_thrills; with dr dre
19:50 highest_cubist_thrills; so the whole thing is a lie now
19:51 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean, its possible for people to still be honest

20:31 frog; Oasis Linux, which i would need to fork and move some of my stuff over there, could solve many problems i see with GNU-toolchain (and too LLVM), the GNU buildsystem, and too the package management
20:33 frog; their package management and build-system is declarative and covers both at once, package management and build system
20:33 frog; however, there is alot of things missing over there, the integration costs are high, and too their tree contains clutter i reject
20:35 frog; nonetheless, Ariadne, i had considered your competence and experience relevant, with a seccond opinion
20:38 highest_cubist_thrills; did the fsf ever create build servers for gnu, as in
20:38 highest_cubist_thrills; "if you have a gnu project you can use this server and these tools to autobuild?"
20:38 frog; regardless of Oasis-Linux and the benefits this has, i am considering a Roll-Back of Linux to v2.4, full tcc-toolchain integration _only_ (without binutils which still resides over there in Oasis)
20:39 highest_cubist_thrills; maybe some individual projects had that, but i mean gnu overall, as build infrastructure any gnu project could use
20:39 frog; anyway; currently i am occupied with other bureaucratic hindrances and lunacies here, which i am not sure, if this will allow me to continue any work at all
20:39 highest_cubist_thrills; like savannah does hosting and project info-- and i know it needs overhaul (which id be for if i didnt know damn well what it meant in practice)
20:40 highest_cubist_thrills; there have been two fsf efforts to provide alternatives-- one with gitlab, courtesy of matt lee or something

20:49 highest_cubist_thrills; probably not free software
20:49 starstreak; nope lol
20:50 highest_cubist_thrills; too bad the fsf never gave a shit about free culture huh
20:50 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean it really is too bad
20:50 highest_cubist_thrills; that one was thing ive always disagreed with them on
20:50 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean i (slightly) exaggerate their stance on free culture because its mostly true
20:50 highest_cubist_thrills; the fsf threw free culture under the bus
20:51 highest_cubist_thrills; setting the stage for free culture to betray stallman later-- which they did
20:51 highest_cubist_thrills; no side is innoncent in that war
20:51 starstreak; highest_cubist_thrills, i have the 80s TMNT and the 00s TMNT in my binder
20:51 highest_cubist_thrills; cc traitors, revoy traitor, kat walsh allegedly (according to roy, true for all i know)
20:52 highest_cubist_thrills; usually im not impressed with remakes, but the 00 tmnt was honestly twice as good
20:52 starstreak; highest_cubist_thrills, 80s TMNT is hard to watch because its so cheesy but the 00 TMNT was so good
20:52 highest_cubist_thrills; and i liked the original (originally)
20:52 highest_cubist_thrills; the original fell apart and the new one was just eprfect

20:53 highest_cubist_thrills; i have an opinion even though i havent seen it
20:53 highest_cubist_thrills; its shit, and ill be happy to admit i was wrong but ill never need to
20:53 highest_cubist_thrills; the 00 remake was a fluke
20:53 highest_cubist_thrills; and iirc it was actually 03 but close enough

20:54 starstreak; TMNT 2003 had an awesome gamecube game
20:54 highest_cubist_thrills; i did like the original april
20:54 highest_cubist_thrills; but the new one was arguably even better
20:54 starstreak; i like to play as April in the new video game
20:55 highest_cubist_thrills; if im at a cosplay thing and there are 1000 different characters
20:55 highest_cubist_thrills; april is going to stand out whether shes in yellow or the new one
20:55 highest_cubist_thrills; but its too bad they made her blonde in s7
20:56 starstreak; i haven't been to a con since 2003
20:56 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean, they lost their best animators, because animators die

20:56 highest_cubist_thrills; i havent been to a con since earlier than that (but not much earlier)
20:57 highest_cubist_thrills; contrapoints would make a great april (2003 version)
20:58 highest_cubist_thrills; but twitter would probably find some reason the turtles are PROBLEMATIC
20:59 highest_cubist_thrills; splinter is a racist asian stereotype

21:02 highest_cubist_thrills; only exception i can think of is the tick-- but that was brilliant

21:02 highest_cubist_thrills; i know

21:02 highest_cubist_thrills; actually-- the turtles movies werent all bad
21:02 highest_cubist_thrills; they werent great but they werent completely awful
21:03 starstreak; i loved power rangers up until Power Rangers Turbo, then i lost interest
21:03 starstreak; apparently they all used to pick on Billy because he was gay irl
21:03 highest_cubist_thrills; thats a shame

21:04 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean broadly speaking
21:04 MinceR; humans are like that
21:05 highest_cubist_thrills; but the 90s were absolutely the decade where gay started becoming SUPER normal across the usa

21:07 highest_cubist_thrills; in fact it wants two
21:08 highest_cubist_thrills; two entirely different revolutions meant to clash with each other and fail

21:10 highest_cubist_thrills; im not completely pessimistic about that but history isnt optimistic
21:10 highest_cubist_thrills; fortunately sometimes history is wrong
21:10 highest_cubist_thrills; if it wasnt, nothing would ever change-- and im not cynical enough to say nothing ever has
21:11 highest_cubist_thrills; too many people get cocky and start acting like its in the bag

23:10 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Mandy's doing a little better today.
23:11 DaemonFC; He finally ate something.
23:11 schestowitz[TR]; what happeend?
23:11 DaemonFC; I told him I'd go pick up anything he wanted to eat and he told me hamburgers from McDonalds.
23:11 DaemonFC; Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, bivalent.
23:11 DaemonFC; This is about how he reacted to the others. Had to take like a day off work in addition to his normal day off.
23:12 DaemonFC; I basically slept and slept after mine. But I perked up enough to go to his friend's birthday party and I'm feeling like myself again.
23:12 schestowitz[TR]; sounds like more harm than good at this stage
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; risk/cost benefit
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; how much protection do you get for it?
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; and at what cost?
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; see my latest articles on this
23:13 DaemonFC; The South China Morning Post has country by country vaccine stats. They list like 95% vaccinated in China. But it's with CommieVac, from the people who brought their soldiers food poisoned rotting MREs. (Sinovac)
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; many people in yoiur age range are dying
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; not of covid-19
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; but of something unknown
23:13 schestowitz[TR]; 10% more deaths in this age bracket
23:13 DaemonFC; But when you live there, you do what you're told. Even if they can't maintain quality control and start injecting you with live virus by mistake because they can't ensure it's attenuated.
23:13 DaemonFC; :)
23:14 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^
23:14 DaemonFC; The Commies shut down a vaccine clinic in Hong Kong for a note on the door saying ask for Pfizer and don't use Sinovac.
23:14 DaemonFC; I wonder what happened to the people who did that. :)
23:14 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: btw, such a reaction to a fourth dose
23:14 schestowitz[TR]; assuming it's similar to prior ones
23:14 schestowitz[TR]; similar, if not the same as some
23:15 schestowitz[TR]; suggests not so much good immunity acquired
23:15 schestowitz[TR]; and sure, it's synthetic
23:15 MinceR; maybe they got "re-educated"
23:15 schestowitz[TR]; but it still have adverse effects
23:15 MinceR; or maybe they just "disappeared"
23:15 schestowitz[TR]; in bags
23:15 DaemonFC; CommieVac obviously didn't get it under control in China or they wouldn't still have entire cities locked down and basically nobody allowed to come in.
23:15 schestowitz[TR]; MinceR: dying of covid-19 is defaming the government
23:15 schestowitz[TR]; it makes it look bad
23:15 DaemonFC; Even with 95.8% "fully" CommieVac'd.
23:15 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^
23:16 DaemonFC; Putler has made such a mess in Russia that COVID is not really on anyone's radar anymore because the Russian men under 60 are dying 500-600 per day in Ukraine.
23:17 frog; DaemonFC: I never understood how any vaccination would benefit to gain _immunity_, because it was spreading and infecting everyone anyway
23:17 DaemonFC; That's when they're not accidentally blowing up their own bridge with a series of their own fuel transports.
23:17 DaemonFC; Or "tossing a cigarette butt" into an ammo depot (that's Putler's story and he's sticking to it).
23:17 frog; DaemonFC: in germany the argument was any vaccination would prevent severe symptoms _only_, and it wouldn't prevent any infection
23:17 MinceR; aggi doesn't understand how the immune system works, so he substitutes his flawed understanding of language for that
23:17 DaemonFC; Or crashing their own fighter jets *and* having the Russian ejector seat fail to so the pilots die.
23:18 DaemonFC; Or accidentally sending cruise missiles astray into Russian villages.
23:18 DaemonFC; :)
23:19 frog; how is this supposed to be funny deserving a smiley?
23:19 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: The reason some people have initial reactions that are quite bad to a vaccine is the innate immune system reacting to it.
23:19 DaemonFC; Before the adaptive immune system does its thing, which is the intended result.
23:20 IPFS; () Planet Gemini updated. Latest complete date at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2022-10-10.gmi and so far today at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/2022-10-11.gmi with 3-day aggregate at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/planet/othercapsules/allinone.gmi
23:21 DaemonFC; The good news is that the innate immune response usually dies down in a couple days or so and then your adaptive immune response kicks in and starts building up specific antibodies and B cells that stick around and they can start manufacturing those antibodies again for a while.
23:21 DaemonFC; Perhaps even several years.
23:21 DaemonFC; The flu vaccines aren't very good at generating a long term immune reaction.
23:21 frog; MinceR: it's unrelated to my understanding, because i am citing what experts said, which slightly contradicts other wild claims here
23:22 MinceR; frog: oh yes, i know your idea of what an "expert" is
23:22 DaemonFC; 6 months later, your adaptive immune system has basically lost most of its memory of those flu strains, and you have to take it again next year anyway due to that and more mutations of the flu.
23:22 frog; and the experts said, those vaccinations were intended to prevent severe symptoms, and couldn't otherwise prevent any spreading
23:22 DaemonFC; COVID-19 vaccines are being updated due to mutations of concern.
23:22 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> schestowitz[TR]: The reason some people have initial reactions that are quite bad to a vaccine is the innate immune system reacting to it.
23:22 frog; MinceR: i got a list of names of them, which are employees of german government institutions of health care here
23:22 MinceR; afaik influenzaviruses are pretty good at mutating
23:22 DaemonFC; So it's basically like a "once every so often antivirus update" for your computer, right?
23:22 schestowitz[TR]; never happens to me with flu and hapa shots
23:22 MinceR; probably in part because their genome is in multiple pieces
23:23 DaemonFC; You need a patch so it recognizes new malware.
23:23 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]never happens to me with flu and hapa shots
23:23 DaemonFC; I had a really awful sore arm after the Prevnar (pneumonia) shot.
23:23 DaemonFC; I'd still rather have that than pneumonia again.
23:24 schestowitz[TR]; I cannot remember ever being tired or unwell after a vaccine
23:24 schestowitz[TR]; ever
23:24 schestowitz[TR]; maybe as a baby... so I would not remember
23:24 DaemonFC; There's a good business in vaccines because there's a whole heap 'o nasty shit out there.
23:25 DaemonFC; But the COVID-19 shots are not a walk in the park and a silver bullet like mjg59_ would say.
23:25 DaemonFC; They just aren't.
23:25 DaemonFC; They're a very awful vaccine as far as side effects go.
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; they are not even 2 years old
23:25 DaemonFC; And only somewhat effective.
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; since experiments began
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; for current products
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; usually takes 5-15 years to develop and test
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; but we live in dictatorsial times
23:26 schestowitz[TR]; clinical trials are thrown in an ashtray of history
23:26 schestowitz[TR]; now they "update" shots and don't even test the outcome
23:26 schestowitz[TR]; they just throw it on some animals for a couple monthns.. APPROVED
23:26 MinceR; 11 231030 <@MinceR> russians serving putler
23:26 MinceR; forgot to include those serving other dictators in this
23:26 schestowitz[TR]; the tests and audits are done by firms with fiancial conflicts of ionterest
23:27 schestowitz[TR]; connected to the sales
23:27 schestowitz[TR]; but "Emergency", so who cars
23:27 DaemonFC; Well, the "anti-vax" crowd. The real one, not the "I have a concern about COVID-19 shots as a one off exception." appeal to stupid people and emotion using a bunch of appeal to the absurd. Like, things that don't imply anything particularly bad.
23:27 schestowitz[TR]; and then they have a go at it with monkeypox
23:27 DaemonFC; "Look at how many shots they want to give your baby! OMG!"
23:27 schestowitz[TR]; you don't heard about itr anymoree do you?
23:27 schestowitz[TR]; must be the vaccines
23:27 schestowitz[TR]; vaccinating the gays "solved" it
23:27 DaemonFC; I didn't get the MonkeyPox shot.
23:27 schestowitz[TR]; amazing
23:28 DaemonFC; I educated myself about it and decided that the risk of the vaccine was there and that the risk of MonkeyPox was a one in a billion thing.
23:28 DaemonFC; So there was no reason to get the vaccine. That vaccine.
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; btw, china has lockdowns again
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; I don't havew to even tell you
23:28 DaemonFC; Hepatitis isn't one in a billion.
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; I think it's in mainstream news
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; after so many vaccinated, they claim
23:29 schestowitz[TR]; so expect more shortages
23:29 DaemonFC; There's active outbreaks going on all over the US right now, but particularly in the midwest.
23:29 DaemonFC; Guess where I am.
23:29 schestowitz[TR]; "supply chain"
23:29 schestowitz[TR]; hence, price increases ... competition for limited resources
23:29 DaemonFC; Xi's bizarre lockdowns.
23:29 DaemonFC; They make no sense, economically.
23:30 DaemonFC; China is scaring away large corporations that want predictable manufacturing.
23:30 schestowitz[TR]; they seem to mostly hurt the west
23:30 schestowitz[TR]; where the economy si ALREADY sccreaming
23:30 DaemonFC; So they're pouring out of China as fast as they can bring capacity up anywhere else.
23:30 schestowitz[TR]; over price of energy, debt, foreclosure crisis...
23:30 DaemonFC; And Xi ends up hurting working age Chinese more than anything else.
23:30 DaemonFC; There's layoffs like China hasn't seen before going on right now and factories closing forever.
23:31 DaemonFC; Because dictatorships behave unpredictably, and businesses want to get out of there before they can't get car tires or something anymore.
23:32 DaemonFC; Yes, energy is another problem that businesses realize is only going to get worse.
23:32 schestowitz[TR]; ukraine stopped energy exports
23:32 DaemonFC; froghow is this supposed to be funny deserving a smiley?
23:32 schestowitz[TR]; after rht latest bombings by russia over a thousands towns and villages don'thave electricity
23:32 schestowitz[TR]; techuser is offline
23:33 DaemonFC; When the Russians accidentally blow themselves up, and something like this happens weekly, almost?
23:33 schestowitz[TR]; he might be among those left without power
23:33 schestowitz[TR]; I hope he is safe
23:33 MinceR; this was, of course, preventable
23:33 DaemonFC; The Russians haven't been particularly cautious with their communications.
23:33 MinceR; but the west isn't willing to bomb orcland to smithereens before even more innocents are sacrificed
23:34 DaemonFC; There have been numerous instances of things like, Russian artillery firing at a group of Russian tanks or something.
23:34 MinceR; and before putler gets even more chances to harm us all
23:34 DaemonFC; They've had a lot of "friendly fire" incidents.
23:34 MinceR; DaemonFC: they probably figure there's nothing of value to lose
23:34 bnchs; hi
23:34 MinceR; they don't value their soldiers, they don't value their citizens
23:34 DaemonFC; They run away so fast that Ukraine has secured more tanks, APCs, and some other things from Russia than from the West.
23:35 MinceR; they hardly have any resources to operate their vehicles
23:35 MinceR; they're allegedly running out of ammo
23:35 DaemonFC; I think they said they got like 350 some tanks from the West but they captured over 450 from the Russians.
23:35 MinceR; their morale is (understandably) shitty
23:35 DaemonFC; Turn them around and shoot Russians with their own tank.
23:35 DaemonFC; LOL
23:35 highest_cubist_thrills; <MinceR> but the west isn't willing to bomb orcland to smithereens before even more innocents are sacrificed <- they werent willing to do much in wwii either, at least for a while
23:35 highest_cubist_thrills; fsvo west
23:35 MinceR; orcish soldiers pretty much are just marched into ukraine to die for nothing
23:35 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean the western west at least
23:36 highest_cubist_thrills; the wildly opportunistic west
23:36 highest_cubist_thrills; churchhill was a bit of a cunt as well
23:36 DaemonFC; MinceR: The Russians had to pull out so fast they didn't bother sabotaging their equipment.
23:36 highest_cubist_thrills; it was just business with him
23:36 DaemonFC; Normally you drop a few grenades into the tank and slam the hatch and run if you have to abandon it.
23:36 highest_cubist_thrills; same as today
23:37 MinceR; DaemonFC: or you have orcs build it :>
23:37 DaemonFC; But Russian soldiers aren't very good, are they?
23:37 highest_cubist_thrills; politicians dont get into office for giving a shit
23:37 highest_cubist_thrills; they get into office for serving their real bosses
23:37 DaemonFC; MinceR: The United States almost always succeeds in blowing up equipment it has to abandon.
23:37 DaemonFC; Especially if it's classified.
23:38 highest_cubist_thrills; after they have a little pageant thats more like pop idol in its honesty every few years
23:38 highest_cubist_thrills; i mean the industry gets whoever they want
23:38 DaemonFC; I'm just saying, the Russians have grenades don't they?
23:38 highest_cubist_thrills; but just to make interesting, theres a vote, why not
23:39 DaemonFC; Shouldn't be too hard to damage the crew cabin of the tank bad enough that they won't be able to repair it anytime soon.
23:39 MinceR; do they?
23:39 highest_cubist_thrills; just make sure everyone with a chance is good enough and let the people decide who will sell them out for a while
23:39 highest_cubist_thrills; "everyones getting fucked tonight-- but you can vote on who fucks you next!"
23:39 highest_cubist_thrills; "oh wow! i like that one!"
23:39 highest_cubist_thrills; "bend over!"
23:40 DaemonFC; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gosling_Emacs
23:40 TR Bot; Gosling Emacs - Wikipedia
23:40 highest_cubist_thrills; spider jerusalem put it a lot more colourfully.
23:40 DaemonFC; "Gosling Emacs was especially noteworthy because of the effective redisplay code,[4] which used a dynamic programming technique to solve the classical string-to-string correction problem. The algorithm was quite sophisticated; that section of the source was headed by a skull-and-crossbones in ASCII art,[5] warning any would-be improver that even if they thought they understood how the...
23:40 DaemonFC; ...display code worked, they probably did not.[6]"
23:40 highest_cubist_thrills; probably because hes written by warren ellis
23:40 highest_cubist_thrills; warren ellis once made eric raymond wet his pants
23:41 highest_cubist_thrills; i dont know if thats true, but hes a way better writer
23:55 highest_cubist_thrills; fucking ancient: "Recent Debian distributions seem to have utterly broken fonts for GTK+ v1.2. Please, do NOT report bugs dealing with weird/badly looking fonts under Debian: this is NOT an Xdialog bug but rather deals with how screwed up is Debian's fonts system."
23:55 highest_cubist_thrills; debian has a history of forcibly deprecating gnome competitors
23:55 highest_cubist_thrills; especially older ones
23:56 highest_cubist_thrills; http://xdialog.free.fr/
23:56 TR Bot; Xdialog
23:56 highest_cubist_thrills; (i said it was ancient)
23:56 highest_cubist_thrills; i didnt even think xdialog was gtk. i figured it was too old for that :)
23:57 highest_cubist_thrills; it still links to freshmeat
23:57 highest_cubist_thrills; freshmeat is a misnomer now
23:59 highest_cubist_thrills; "Still about Debian: given how rigid is the (IMHO stupid) Debian policy about packaging, and how stubborn are the Debian maintainers, I do NOT and will NEVER support any Debian-related problem" :)
