11:34 DaemonFC; schestowitz, The funny thing about Uber is that Chicago passed special ride sharing taxes on it and how it's more expensive than calling a licensed taxi.
11:35 DaemonFC; The taxi drivers actually have passed a background check and need to get their vehicles checked for passenger safety.
11:40 DaemonFC; That woman who leased out her house for 8 days on "vrbo" and lost $4,000 plus the cost of dealing with ruined carpet (dog shit), holes in the walls, and the cops in and out to remove crack and fentanyl is lucky she's not being charged with a crime.
11:40 DaemonFC; The cops can easily say "Your house, your drugs." or at the very least tell you to appear in court over maintaining a common nuisance.
11:42 DaemonFC; This kind of infestation can happen to a landlord, but usually not one that conducts any sort of background screening and wants stable long term tenants.
11:43 DaemonFC; If you run people's background checks and it starts coming up with a list of felonies, you just don't rent to them.
11:43 DaemonFC; If you do a short term lease on an app, the app company doesn't want to appear racist, so they don't tell you anything. Not even a picture and a full name now.
11:44 DaemonFC; So you don't know anything about these people until it's too late.
11:44 DaemonFC; Then the app company goes "Gee, well, we just helped you list it. That sounds bad though!".
11:47 DaemonFC; It's as much greed on the part of the landlord as anything. They roll the dice with people who could trash their apartment thinking that they'll get more money than they would renting it to a stable tenant, and then they get shit on the walls and they gotta get shwifty in here.
11:48 DaemonFC; Apps are basically a portal to hell.

11:50 DaemonFC; I mean, 30 years ago, nobody would have done short term leasing of a few days even if there was some practical way to do it because they wouldn't want different strangers in there every few days waiting for someone to turn it into a crack den, change the locks, and require an 8 month eviction process.

21:00 XRevan86; It's easier for me to imagine that they have some bonkers ORM and the mapping is borked on 'Jeffrey' somehow.
21:00 DaemonFC; "The SEIU is the one that "organized" Kroger in Indiana and then got them minimum wage and union dues coming out at a check-off.
21:00 DaemonFC; I told my ex to just use Right To Work on them.
21:00 DaemonFC; He did, and he got a pay increase and the rest of the contract still applied to him. Then when he went to work for the federal government in Illinois, he declined to join the union again. It did nothing, well, almost nothing.
21:00 DaemonFC; One AFGE official usually gets indicted for a felony every month, and they have pizza parties to encourage people to join the union, which can't do anything.
21:00 DaemonFC; The anti-Right To Work law in Illinois prevents people who aren't being represented very well from leaving the union and taking their money with them.
21:00 XRevan86; Still very hard to imagine, just easier than the alternative.
21:00 DaemonFC; When I worked at a factory in Indiana, before Right To Work, I would have left the union if I could. We made almost minimum wage and the Sheet Metal Workers Union was the yellowest union ever.
21:00 DaemonFC; Someone attacked me on the assembly line, and my union "representative" showed up, said nothing, and allowed me to get punished too.
21:00 DaemonFC; Many people just simply don't want to hear that most unions aren't what they think they're signing up for, and if you're in a closed shop state, they can just steal and steal from you and do no services.
21:00 DaemonFC; The Democrats want to put anti-Right To Work in the state constitution of Illinois. I will vote no.
21:00 DaemonFC; It's not that I don't support the idea of unions, in theory, but most of them are corrupt and useless, and the SEIU and UFCW have certainly done nothing for the Meijer and Kroger workers, except take their money. Now they want money from Starbucks workers.
21:00 DaemonFC; I predict that Starbucks will eventually realize it's no skin off their ass, since the money being stolen by the union comes from the workers, and the SEIU may keep out an actual union since you'd have to decertify this one first.
21:00 DaemonFC; As for Starbucks, well, I can make Earl Grey lattes at home for way less than $7."

21:27 DaemonFC; If you think your spouse is planning to file divorce, it's best to quietly "move" to a state with no alimony laws and "reside" there (at your cousin's place or something) long enough to file for divorce in that state.
21:27 DaemonFC; Hopefully, you'll catch them off guard, and once you hit them with divorce in your new "home state", they can't file one against you.
21:28 DaemonFC; Since failure to pay alimony can be a felony in Illinois, but alimony is limited and usually not granted at all in Indiana, you can preclude the possibility of being ordered to pay your ex, with the threat of going to prison if you do not.
21:29 DaemonFC; I was researching divorce in Indiana to help mom get away from that fat slob of a third husband of hers.
21:30 DaemonFC; First I made things really inconvenient for him by telling her to motion for a change of venue.
21:30 DaemonFC; Then I found which judges in which counties usually didn't award alimony to the lower earning spouse.
21:31 DaemonFC; So by the time it made it into court and he motioned for alimony and half her pension, the judge started shooting it all down and they both left the marriage with the debts and assets that were in their names.
21:31 DaemonFC; And then I helped her file bankruptcy against a bunch of people, including her divorce lawyer.
21:32 DaemonFC; Obviously I told her "Don't get married again. This is getting worse each time.".
21:32 DaemonFC; I can only imagine what Bill and MALINDA's divorce will look like.
21:33 DaemonFC; I doubt it had much to do with Epstein. It probably has more to do with Washington being a Community Property state.
21:33 DaemonFC; Most aren't, several are. In a Community Property state, it doesn't matter what's in your name, what's in their name. It belongs to both of you if you're married.
21:33 DaemonFC; If he has a bank account without your name on it, it's half yours anyway.
21:34 DaemonFC; If one of you files bankruptcy, you have to drag the other spouse into the bankruptcy.
21:34 DaemonFC; If you already had a car when you got married and her name isn't on it, and you get divorced, the judge will say you owe her for half the car.

21:34 DaemonFC; It's an absolute nightmare to live in those states if you're the higher earning spouse.

23:42 schestowitz; like that idiot frm LF
23:42 schestowitz; who conducts a survey
23:42 schestowitz; basically a questionnaire
23:43 psydroid2; so GNU/Linux was fine for 30 years, but all of a sudden it is unfit for purpose now
23:43 schestowitz; then calling oneself "principal research" or something
23:43 schestowitz; sounds more like a final year product in a non-tech bach degree
23:43 schestowitz; *project
