beginning of new day, May 12

00:00 matey; when it comes to being a (POLITICAL) armpit of the world, russia had more help than MOST places

00:00 matey; LOTS of help from outsiders

00:00 matey; i would say "russian spies" but since that cliche is both done to death and inversely applicable here, i would say foreign powers

00:01 matey; but make no mistake, when it comes to fucking up russia

00:01 matey; no one did quite as good a job as russia

00:01 matey; it still had LOTS of help

00:02 matey; particularly WHEN it was fucking itself up the most

00:02 matey; and im sure thats still somewhat true today

00:02 XRevan86; matey: I don't know, I mostly see internal issues here.

00:02 matey; theres just no such thing

00:02 XRevan86; The Checha conflict? Not internal?

00:02 matey; politics spend about as much time in a vacuum as a living person without a spacesuit

00:02 matey; okay i mean if you get thats specific i dont know (yet)

00:03 matey; but broadly, i dont think russia acted alone

00:03 matey; tell me when it did a better job other than the president and stalin (i know gorbechav is not exactly the most popular bloke there)

00:03 XRevan86; Russia has exported a lot of corruption, and that could only have been possible with a willing recipient.

00:03 matey; s/president/present

00:04 matey; and ill say that under stalin, britain and usa were more than generous lending a hand to russias destruction

00:04 XRevan86; matey: Right, my focus is on the present however.

00:04 matey; i dont think any politics are easy to understand properly if you focus on a single country at once

00:05 matey; and you know an order of magnitude (no, a few of those) more about the present than i do

00:05 XRevan86; Russia, in the present, had the chance to become a functioning reasonable country, it just didn't.

00:05 matey; its not off my rader, but its on the fringe of it

00:05 matey; good lord this typing

00:05 XRevan86; Of course the past had a hand in it, but to me it's like "I'm a serial killer because my mother didn't love me"

00:06 XRevan86; cool shit, ye're still going to jail, bud

00:06 matey; well i dont think putin would even be there if not for the past

00:06 matey; but i would never imply that gets him off the hook

00:06 matey; if anything, id be very pleased to see him on a hook

00:06 XRevan86; preferrably alive

00:06 matey; im neutral on that one

00:07 matey; its not bloodlust, its giving a shit about the rest of the world besides putlin

00:07 XRevan86; One of my dreams is seeing him try to weasel himself out of this one.

00:07 matey; be careful what you wish for

00:07 matey; though hopefully you arent likely to get it

00:08 matey; some things political should be LITERALLY suicide

00:08 XRevan86; Nothing debunks the cult of personality than the person himself in an uncomfortable position.

00:08 XRevan86; * as well as

00:09 matey; well now youre entering an area im a bit more familiar with

00:09 matey; they suffer all the time, but not the same way you or i would

00:09 XRevan86; matey: No, ye misunderstood: I want it be visible to everyone how pathetic he actually is.

00:09 matey; oh, yes

00:09 matey; like how italys fascist leader went

00:10 matey; literally on a hook, i think

00:10 XRevan86; I don't want him to die like Stalin, uncontested.

00:10 matey; oh no death is too good for him, as long as its very soon

00:10 matey; im not hard to please on this one

00:10 XRevan86; I don't want to grow old and see a portrait of Putin somewhere all fancy-looking.

00:10 *techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@s44cwn8sugddy.irc) has joined #techrights

00:10 matey; you underestimate the stupidity of people

00:11 matey; stalin portraits are all the proof one needs

00:11 XRevan86; That's why it has to be obvious.

00:11 matey; there will be a statue of him somewhere

00:11 matey; somewhere fairly stupid

00:11 matey; i mean im not trying to make you unhappy here-- you seem more than most, like someone who values realism

00:12 matey; but there are still portaits of hitler around, and he went out about as pathetically as one can

00:12 matey; theres just no guarantee of what youre hoping for at all

00:12 matey; i much prefer expediency

00:12 matey; but i wont tell you what to desire the most

00:13 XRevan86; matey: I mean, I will go for what I can get.

00:13 XRevan86; But that's the optimum outcome.

00:13 matey; indeed

00:13 matey; well, for you, ill hope a little for tears and gnashing of teeth, and begging and pleading

00:14 XRevan86; It's much more likely that Putin will be assassinated.

00:14 matey; going out on his knees

00:14 matey; by far

00:14 matey; and you know, when you assassinate someone like that, you make two asses out of them.

00:14 XRevan86; One thing we know is that Putin really-really likes living.

00:15 matey; yes, hes sort of the political equivalent of voldemort

00:15 matey; maybe he was hoping to turn ukraine into a horcrux

00:15 matey; im not even joking (i am at least exaggerating)

00:15 XRevan86; matey: Huh, for something this acute I'm surprised this is the first time I hear this comparison.

00:15 matey; i do my best, but thank you :)

00:16 matey; still, against tooting my own horn too much

00:16 matey; despots and the desire for immortality sort of go hand in hand

00:16 matey; im not being all that original here

00:16 XRevan86; matey: Well, the "horcrux" thing is not as acute.

00:16 matey; give it time

00:16 XRevan86; matey: I mean "living" as in physically living.

00:17 matey; oh, i know

00:17 matey; but the two are related

00:17 matey; let me draw a distant parallel

00:17 matey; one of the reasons people become mass murderers

00:17 matey; not necessarily serial killers, but you know-- trench coat wearers etc (sorry, 99% of people wearing trench coats who will never kill anyone)

00:18 matey; thats a very american reference anyway

00:18 matey; but the point is

00:18 XRevan86; matey: The Breivik's the world, got it.

00:18 matey; its the suicidal bit that makes them homicidal

00:18 matey; they dont want to live, and they dont want to go alone.

00:18 matey; its all about fear

00:18 matey; theirs

00:18 matey; fear of life and fear of death too

00:19 matey; on the other side of the coin, you have the wish for immortality

00:19 matey; its understandable, depending on how obsessed someone is

00:19 matey; i guarantee, if putin fears death at all (and this seems very likely)

00:19 matey; theres a part of him that wants literal immortality of course

00:20 matey; but failing that, i think you can count on a plan b of trying to be immortal in a more figurative sense

00:20 XRevan86; I wish Putin would have found solace in all his secret children.

00:20 matey; its why sociopaths like bill gates turn to philanthropy. its certainly not because they give a shit about anyone else.

00:20 matey; they only want people to care about THEM

00:20 matey; I wish Putin would have found solace in all his secret children. <- indeed

00:20 matey; its terrible to screw up your kids

00:21 matey; but still better than screwing up very large swaths of europe (and parts of asia)

00:22 XRevan86; matey: I mean as a recipe for figurative immortality.

00:23 matey; well, unless he can like brain transplant himself into one, of course

00:23 XRevan86; Without being a bloody Gatherer of Land.

00:23 matey; but thats what i figured you meant (figuratively that is)

00:23 matey; i still dont know if hes reached the batshit crazy level that hitler did

00:24 XRevan86; Nah, Hitler is still uncontested.

00:24 XRevan86; That guy was just too far gone.

00:24 matey; i mean putlin seems (RELATIVELY) straightforward in his goals

00:24 matey; hitler was like a mass murdering version of q from star trek-- at least in his own mind

00:25 matey; putlin is more like napoleon imo

00:25 matey; he just wants more power and prestige by killing people if he has to

00:25 matey; thats (relatively) straightforward. doesnt mean its admirable

00:25 XRevan86; matey: The cynicism is there for sure.

00:26 matey; other than "is he dead yet?" the question id most like the answer to is

00:26 matey; will he ever think to himself

00:27 matey; "oops. i really fucked up."

00:27 matey; or will it literally never cross his mind

00:27 XRevan86; matey: He is too secretive for us to know if he ever thinks that.

00:27 matey; i mean this is purely academic, and thats being charitable

00:27 matey; its at least on the verge of being masturbatory

00:27 XRevan86; The more practical question is whether he will ever think that he needs to stop.

00:27 matey; but whether intellectually or literally, most people do, so im not exactly ashamed

00:28 matey; well thats more practical, yes.

00:28 matey; but also pointless because we know the answer and theres really no question.

00:28 matey; i dont think one has to be even a little cynical to come to that conclusion

00:28 XRevan86; Can't argue with taht.

00:29 XRevan86; As long as there's even a glimpse of hope for him, he will push forward.

00:30 matey; then its the duty of the world to give him enough hope to keep pushing forward at a rate the world can manage

00:30 XRevan86; But in a more of a juggernaut kind of way.

00:30 matey; while they sneak up behind him with a shotgun

00:32 XRevan86; That sneaking up action is something I'm yet to see.

00:32 matey; no one needs to see the sneaking, only the man crumpled dead in a heap

00:34 XRevan86; The munition help, the economic sanctions, all that has an effect that increases with that. Don't know if that counts as "sneaking up" if see it a kilometre away.

00:34 XRevan86; Except for the Russian propaganda of course, which tries to pacify the population and tell them everything will be alright.

00:34 matey; well i didnt mean it literally

00:35 matey; but certainly in that ballpark

00:35 matey; so im referring to whatever action immediately precedes him being a corpse

00:35 matey; whether its that day, that week, etc

00:35 DaemonFC; Hmm, Walmart carries white wall tires in my Buick's size.

00:35 DaemonFC; That would look cool.

00:35 matey; as i said im not picky

00:36 matey; are you gonna cruise the miracle mile

00:36 DaemonFC; When this set is good and worn out I may grab some white walls.

00:36 DaemonFC; I'm not going to toss a brand new set of tires just over that, but when I need new ones in a few years.

00:36 XRevan86; matey: Could be cancer.

00:38 XRevan86; matey: Or slightly more likely exacerbation of the Parkinson's disease.

00:39 matey; which i think is a myth

00:39 matey; but a very deliberate one

00:39 XRevan86; matey: Nah.

00:39 XRevan86; It's mild but it's there.

00:39 DaemonFC; I don't know how Putin would be "popular".

00:39 matey; theres a tradition, particularly in russia

00:39 DaemonFC; I'm over here having a Buick restored. They can't even get a car with air conditioners now.

00:39 matey; but not exclusively whatsoever

00:40 DaemonFC; You know, I briefly thought about buying a brand new truck.

00:40 matey; of saying such things whenever they want someone gone and they dont want to argue

00:40 DaemonFC; Ford has a hybrid truck that only starts at $20,000.

00:40 matey; i happen to sympathise with them on this

00:40 XRevan86; matey: What things?

00:40 DaemonFC; But it's made in Mexico and it has all that battery shit on it.

00:40 DaemonFC; It hasn't been out long enough to know what they got wrong with it.

00:41 matey; trump, putin, ted grant, even stallman (speculating that he had a stroke or something)

00:42 DaemonFC; At this rate, the Republicans will probably make Ted Nugent their next president.

00:42 matey; they do this to good people they want gone, and trump is another example of doing it to really terrible people they want gone

00:42 matey; they start with the diagnoses

00:42 DaemonFC; He admits he covered himself in human shit after not bathing for 2 weeks and wearing women's clothing into the draft office.

00:42 matey; ones that prove such a regime is hopeless

00:42 matey; im not saying it never actually happens

00:42 DaemonFC; But that's not really so far down from Trump.

00:42 matey; only that it doesnt even have to

00:42 matey; plausbility only helps the case

00:44 matey; they cover actual news on tv, right? <- has to have happened at least once or twice

00:45 XRevan86; matey: Regarding the Parkinson's, it's because of his leg and hand tremors.

00:45 DaemonFC; Even the implication of chicken, you know, not just the small breasts and the shrieking tone of voice.

00:45 DaemonFC; But Hillary was involved in the Tyson chicken scandals in Arkansas.

00:45 matey; its because im more interested in poltiics than medicine that im going to stick to my (possibly very inaccurate) guns here

00:46 DaemonFC; They paid bribes to the Clintons thinly veiled as "salaries".

00:46 matey; maybe they slipped him a poison that just has that as a side effect. wouldnt that be useful?

00:46 DaemonFC; Like Walmart, the oil companies, and the big banks.

00:46 matey; im not saying that i didnt just throw occam out the window

00:46 matey; but he was looking shifty-eyed.

00:46 DaemonFC; The simplest explanation is usually the correct one?

00:46 matey; also his razor doesnt work so well in politics

00:46 matey; but maybe hes just sick

00:46 XRevan86; matey: I'm not a medical expert and I won't say for certain that the Parkinson's is there, but the tremors are.

00:47 DaemonFC; No, that doesn't explain a lot of what goes on, unless you're dealing with someone that's of a very low IQ and pretty predictable as a result.

00:47 matey; oh im not disputing them

00:47 matey; just speculating about possible causes

00:47 XRevan86; His legs were all over the place for years.

00:47 matey; by no means do i need this theory to be right

00:47 XRevan86; Maybe it's some kind of stimulants, who knows

00:48 DaemonFC; Predictable people pretty much just accept what happens to them and don't understand things like long term consequences, because their low IQ leaves them unable to grasp consequences.

00:48 matey; i mean im not saying the most obvious cause isnt also very possible

00:48 DaemonFC; Which is why they're in trouble with money and the law and saying Jesus will sort everything out if you pray hard enough.

00:48 matey; but since thats being tended to adequately

00:48 DaemonFC; Today in Florida, a passenger managed to land a small plane. He'd had no piloting training or anything, just talked down by an air traffic controller who told him what to do.

00:49 DaemonFC; WGN posts it to Facebook.

00:49 DaemonFC; All of a sudden, all of the really low IQ folks go "That was impossible. GOD was in the cockpit!".

00:50 XRevan86; So I'll back-off with the Parkinson's allegations.

00:50 matey; please feel free though

00:50 matey; i mean, either way

00:50 DaemonFC; There's a fine line between being so stupid you're utterly predictable and so stupid that your disastrous results are truly random and terrifying.

00:50 matey; im merely toying with the idea

00:51 matey; like i said, whatever kills him is fine

00:51 DaemonFC; And the latter are what you call a loose cannon.

00:51 matey; but its far better that its sooner rather than later

00:51 DaemonFC; And those people are peppered in just enough so you don't know right away if they're a dangerous stupid person or a benign stupid person that's at least able to hold down a job and perform very simple and repetitive tasks if you don't ask too much of them.

00:56 DaemonFC; And I had to play it off like, "Oh yeah, they just paid $1,000 bonus because of COVID and now they have to get payroll under control again.".

01:02 DaemonFC; Then it was evidence that Hitler was right about the Jews all along and he'd uncovered their conspiracy, and they were the only ones who didn't like Hitler.

02:04 activelow; although it is noteworthy, such argument isn't presented in "EU" with their "free press"

02:04 activelow; it is only referred to as "Russian propaganda" and never mentioned

02:05 XRevan86; "Ukraine never complied with the Minsk agreement" <- Isn't it fun when the DPR's role in this is completely ignored?

02:05 activelow; furthermore, i had one or another opinion, on Ukraine wheet exports... and their profiteering with whoever it is, better not to say anything

02:06 XRevan86; "Russian military took aim at military facilities" <- I guess they just kept missing and hitting resident buildings. "which Nato-minions were not legitimately interferfing with" <- mkay.

02:09 activelow; or did i miss anything?

02:11 activelow; the real conflict isn't russia against ukraine... it is cash grab gambling of a pseudo intellectual elite among all involved, including "EU" and their "liberalized energy market"

02:11 activelow; and among those, Putin isn't the worst, by far

02:12 activelow; and given the excess propganda here, "EU", portraying the comedian from kiev as the messiah... i wouldn't place my bets on him, given my memories about EU and their lies

02:13 activelow; in parallel, after EU already shut down Russian satellite tv broadcasting, today's announcement tech companies are forced to spy on _all_ users and _all_ their data

02:19 XRevan86; activelow: "there isn't any war in Russia" <- Eh, I'm not really ready to talk about how things started in 2014. To me it's enough to know that FSB and Surkov were involved, and Surkov (i.e. Russia) was puppeting DPR ever since.

02:19 activelow; i mean Chancellor Schroeder, best Gazprom buddy of Putin, these politicians took care: jobs, industry, energy... what else would you expect?

03:13 IPFS; New daily bulletin has just been added to IPFS, hereon retrievable with the CID above.

03:14 DaemonFC; ComEd has to give us a $20 a month bill credit for a year beginning next month, so our electric bill for the next 12 months could even hit just $10-12 sometimes.

03:20 DaemonFC; NATO doesn't use any of the equipment that's been seen commandeering Ukrainian power plants, and if it does, it's like 2-3 of them that it acquired somehow for training purposes or reverse engineering, not enough to invade a country.

03:21 DaemonFC; NATO wouldn't be caught dead using anything like those old Soviet rustbuckets that comprise about 80-90% of Putin's military.

03:22 XRevan86; When Russian forces took over two nuclear power plants in Ukraine, one of them being in bloody Chernobyl, that's when I cared.

03:23 DaemonFC; Part of the reason for the poor performance of the Russian military is it relies on so much outdated stuff and aside from lobbing several hypersonic missiles and like 5 modern tanks into the field, it's all pretty much junk.

03:23 XRevan86; Nothing blew up, and thank Flying Spaghetti Monster for that.

03:23 DaemonFC; No, they just dug around in the radioactive dirt and almost killed themselves (maybe some did....not like Putin would admit it).

08:08 matey; its letting people see exactly what it means when a country decides mainstream social media is banned and labelled an "extremist organisation"

08:08 matey; in other words,they can see exactly what sort of bullshit that is

08:08 matey; also, lieplanet is russian i guess.

08:10 matey; which just goes to show you-- give a country complete control over speech, and they will only condemn it for actions not unlike their own.

When it came time to stick the engine back together, they couldn't get it to fit together anymore because the Germans had designed it so precisely that you can't just basically get it right and stick a gasket in between the pieces like you would an American engine.

12:04 DaemonFC; And so he was out all that money, the car still didn't work, and he had to have it hauled away in the end anyway.

12:09 DaemonFC; There's a few states where you can sue anyone who caused your marriage to break down.

12:09 DaemonFC; It's called a mother-in-lawsuit.

12:09 matey; they dropped acid-- but they didnt inhale

12:10 DaemonFC; Because usually the respondent is a mother-in-law that convinced the spouse to file divorce.

12:28 matey; i heard this on the radio like 20+ years ago

12:28 matey; i dont even know if theyd made the matrix yet, but i never saw this video before

12:28 DaemonFC; The Matrix was in the movie theater in 1998.

12:28 DaemonFC; Each movie depicts roughly the time period in which the movie was released.

12:29 matey; omg this video is even worse than the song

12:29 DaemonFC; The Matrix has a timeline. They rebooted it probably sometime in the 1980s or early 90s to start that iteration.

12:29 matey; its got a spoken part in the middle

12:30 matey; i hate when they do this (and the labels only do it because they think youll go buy the album instead)

12:30 DaemonFC; In the latest movie, the analyst (Neil Patrick Harris) stole bits of the original Matrix code from the architect's version and improved upon it.

12:30 matey; i would have stopped this 3 minutes ago if not for the sheer novelty and absurdity

12:30 DaemonFC; This version of the Matrix jumped ahead by about 20 years and was build to resemble a MMORPG.

12:31 matey; though if you think keanu has a face about as animated as kristen stewart, hes might as well be jim carrey compared to emilio estevez

12:31 DaemonFC; It was even more dangerous than the architect's Matrix, primarily because while the architect's Matrix allowed Agents to possess people, they could only do it one at a time.

12:31 DaemonFC; In the analyst's Matrix, he had a "bot swarm mode" where AIs took over all of the human avatars at once and made them agent-like.

18:19 DaemonFC; And it doesn't occur to Mandy why he might want to get citizenship in a real country instead of a failed colony that six countries in a row conquered.

18:20 DaemonFC; It seems their defense strategy over the years has been more or less to acquiesce to invaders and just hope they don't get raped too much while they're there.

18:20 DaemonFC; Until the invaders either get defeated by a bigger bully and have to leave or give up trying to do anything with the Philippines and leave.

18:21 DaemonFC; Now, you know, whoever would try to invade the US would have a really big problem on their hands. First of all, we have a modern military and all the stuff works, unlike Putler.

18:22 DaemonFC; And even if they did try to set up an occupation, there are millions and millions of people here with guns who would fucking kill them all.

18:22 DaemonFC; So they wouldn't have much luck with that.

18:23 DaemonFC; Oh dear. Well, if anything happens, it was nice knowing you all until Commie Crap can get out here and fix me.

18:24 DaemonFC; I'm going to get a landscaping brick and put it next to my comcast line so it fucks up his mower before he can get near that.

18:26 DaemonFC; Yeah, I may just go to Home Depot today while I'm thinking about this.

18:26 DaemonFC; I'm getting real real tired of this.

18:27 DaemonFC; I wonder why he came out to do the mowing instead of having that Mexican guy do it.

18:27 DaemonFC; The plumbing alone here is so fuck awful that he has his hands full just dealing with that, and tenants that get mad about being evicted for not paying and breaking the windows before they leave.

18:29 DaemonFC; If I had to guess, I'm betting that he'll just barely keep it working until Waukegan is gentrified someday and he can sell the building for a fortune and get someone else to pay for plumbing upgrades.

18:30 DaemonFC; Of course, the economy heading into a deep recession with sky high interest rates is going to work against him on that one. Those hedge funds are already highly "leveraged" now.

18:30 DaemonFC; Their business model will fall apart if interest rates go up a little.

18:33 DaemonFC; T-Mobile Home Internet is still advertising heavily on Facebook.

18:33 DaemonFC; Their service is temperamental and slow.
