00:01 TR News; ManCity started spamming people who merely gave an email address once upon a time. Buying a ticket anonymously is virtually impossible (short of scalpers).
00:03 TR News; It's getting to the point where you need to give fake email addresses just to avoid spam. You don't want to be in databases that get passed to aggressive marketing [sic] firms some time in the future. Rogues.

01:02 schestowitz[TR]; the turned "open source"
01:02 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], My cousin bought Grandma's house from her several years back when she went to the home.
01:02 DaemonFC; For $68,000.
01:02 schestowitz[TR]; from community activism
01:02 schestowitz[TR]; into farming the work of volunteer geeks
01:02 DaemonFC; Figured that she'd be fine. She owned the title.
01:02 schestowitz[TR]; for creation of PROPRIETARY SOLUSHENS
01:03 schestowitz[TR]; That's what LF does
01:03 DaemonFC; What she got was an aging house built in the 60s that nobody had maintained since shortly after Grandpa retired from GM in the 80s.
01:03 DaemonFC; It kept falling apart around her and she took my advice and just sold it at a book loss of $11,000 this year to get rid of it before it fell over.
01:03 DaemonFC; And the new owner has a problem now.
01:03 schestowitz[TR]; i see..
01:03 schestowitz[TR]; I'm not good at these things
01:03 schestowitz[TR]; like assessing homes
01:03 MinceR; 14 015757 < reptilian_thrills> no because most of them work for free
01:03 schestowitz[TR]; material, age, etc.
01:04 MinceR; also because they have people they control in other corporations that work for them
01:04 schestowitz[TR]; usually you are encouraged to hire people to assess what you buy
01:04 schestowitz[TR]; "survey"
01:04 DaemonFC; I told her "Take a Capital Loss on your taxes of the $11,000 and call it a night. You own a second house anyway that's in better shape. Kick out the tenant and use the money you raised to fix that one and live in it!".
01:04 DaemonFC; You can't get a homestead credit on more than one house anyway.
01:04 DaemonFC; So owning two is insane.
01:04 MinceR; MICROS~1 threatens a license price hike and dHell/hp/... just does what MICROS~1 wants
01:04 DaemonFC; I told her hurry and get rid of it while the new borrower could get a mortgage.
01:05 DaemonFC; Because by later this year (this was 5 months ago) nobody will be taking mortgages.
01:05 MinceR; MICROS~1 comes up with the TPM racket, advertises it as a feature and tons of clueless suits want it in PCs
01:05 DaemonFC; And I was right. Loan volume collapsed by 90%.
01:05 MinceR; and now MICROS~1 is the gatekeeper of the PC OS market and they don't have to do anything to keep that power
01:06 DaemonFC; I said, "If you can even get rid of it at all next year, you won't get $57,000 for it. You'll be lucky to get $45,000 for it.".
01:06 DaemonFC; "Then it will be a $23,000 loss.
01:07 DaemonFC; $11,000 is already bad for a book loss, but at least she lived in it for 9 years and collected rent on the other house from someone that didn't destroy it.
01:07 DaemonFC; Now, she's really bad with money so instead of squirreling away the rent money, they blew it on Outback Steakhouse and Disney.

01:09 reptilian_thrills; <schestowitz[TR]> from community activism <- open source was always the delusional version of free software
01:09 schestowitz[TR]; depends
01:09 DaemonFC; And the gutters replaced. And the drive repaved.

01:09 schestowitz[TR]; the price can still collapse sooin

01:10 reptilian_thrills; you were gggggppppppssssssssssssss
01:10 DaemonFC; Before you know it, instead of throwing away your money on rent, you're throwing away 2.5 times as much on the mortgage, the repairs, the insurance, and the property tax bills.
01:10 reptilian_thrills; That's what LF does <- if perens is to be believed, thats what open source has done since 1999
01:10 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
01:11 reptilian_thrills; but lf is a perfect example of it too
01:11 schestowitz[TR]; even before
01:11 schestowitz[TR]; under a different banner
01:11 schestowitz[TR]; but it is accelerating now
01:11 DaemonFC; Every month or two something else goes wrong with the house.
01:11 schestowitz[TR]; see that latest talk of zemlin
01:11 reptilian_thrills; <MinceR> also because they have people they control in other corporations that work for them <- that too
01:11 schestowitz[TR]; where he talks of bill gates as a role model
01:11 reptilian_thrills; they go together imo
01:11 DaemonFC; So you ignore it like my cousin so you can go to Florida again.
01:11 DaemonFC; Until it piles up and the home is about to be condemned.
01:12 schestowitz[TR]; yeah, leaks can ruin ceilings
01:12 schestowitz[TR]; and then carpets
01:12 DaemonFC; She was lucky she lived out in the country in a red state where the building inspector didn't drop by to figure that out.

02:20 DaemonFC; Hey man, I get it, vaccines are cool! (In general.)
02:20 DaemonFC; It's really cool that we can, in some cases, wipe out disease or come damned close to it, but COVID....is here.
02:20 DaemonFC; It's never going away.
02:21 DaemonFC; The surge of viral hepatitis in the United States is a failure of the nation.
02:22 DaemonFC; The vaccines are cheap and they're mandatory vaccines for children, but we're letting the diseases spread like wildfire through a mix of policies from stupid religious people, perhaps "under-educated" minorities, and suburban soccer mom women with SUVs who think they know more than their doctor.
02:23 DaemonFC; But on the flip side of this, we have discussions like do we vaccinate for COVID four boosters every year and that's just how it is now. Suck it up, buttercup.
02:24 DaemonFC; So I think we need to give up on trying to suppress every mild case of illness and just try to keep the more extreme outcomes away, and figure out what the minimum number of doses that does this is.
02:24 DaemonFC; That's what an ethical person would say to do.
02:25 DaemonFC; And there's no evidence that the vaccines shape the spread of COVID much. That seems to have happened mainly from damned near everyone getting it at once last winter despite being vaxxed and boosted.
02:25 DaemonFC; I mean, look at the size of that surge.
02:25 DaemonFC; And the only reason we won't see that again is because testing has dropped over 92% in the United States.
02:26 DaemonFC; So very nearly all people who get swabbed are having respiratory illness now, of some kind, or are one of the few workers that still has to test.
02:26 DaemonFC; Mom informed me last night over the phone that very soon, they won't have to test or wear masks at the nursing home she works at because Bailout Biden gave the money to Intel so they could fire all those people today instead of buying masks and COVID tests for people who have to work where the 90 and 100 year olds live.
02:26 DaemonFC; Nice of him, right? Right.
02:27 DaemonFC; I thought so.

03:15 DaemonFC; "Unfortunately, anti-Free Software troll Matthew J. Garrett had a bad episode last night on IRC to try to disrupt the room, and the topic changed to vaccines for a while to distract from chat about the criminal activities of one Bill Gates.
03:15 DaemonFC; (Garrett may be working for Microsoft soon if his employer doesnt go under before that. Their CEO is trying to get Aurora Innovation, Inc. acquired. Its currently running out of money, losing three-fourths of a billion dollars a year on barely a tenth as much revenue, having never turned a profit.)"
03:16 DaemonFC; "It really does amaze me how obtuse Matthew Garrett can be when he wants to be. He tried to imply I was racist when I said people in Chicago are woke and the only reason Lori Lightfoot is the Mayor is because shes a black lesbian.
03:16 DaemonFC; I was saying that the qualifications arent the best policies, its ticking off boxes.
03:16 DaemonFC; I said Im gay and I wouldnt want anyone to vote for me if it was only because I was gay. Thats not important. You have to worry about how theyll run your city or state and affect your life.
03:16 DaemonFC; Ive passed up voting for two gay people (Lori Lightfoot and Pete Buttigieg) because I didnt feel they were qualified to do what they were running for.
03:16 DaemonFC; I dont feel Pete Buttigieg should even be the Transportation Secretary. He had his let them eat brioche moment the other day when he said youll never worry about gas prices if you buy an electric car.
03:16 DaemonFC; So many things wrong with that, like the fact that those cares are an unreliable burden with sky high maintenance costs and that Californias electric grid is on the verge of collapse and they already cant beg, borrow, or steal enough of someone elses electricity to run what they have now."
03:17 DaemonFC; typo
03:18 DaemonFC; "I dont really like the term government corruption, because when you try to point something out as being an example of government corruption, you make it sound like its the exception rather than the rule.
03:18 DaemonFC; It would be more notable to try to point at any examples of government virtue, if any such examples were to exist.
03:18 DaemonFC; Today in a shocking and rare case of government incorruption., the news from a parallel universe could say, Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot of Chicago was caught funneling taxpayer funds intended to help police beat up the homeless and burn their belongings into public housing.
03:18 DaemonFC; When pressed for a comment, Governor J.B. Pritzker of Illinois said Im shocked. Shocked and dismayed! And I vow, as your Governor who packed that ballot box fair and square, to get to the bottom of this incorruptibility and alarming level of accountability involving taxpayer funds. This is exactly the kind of behavior that my Administration has been working very hard to root out here in the Prairie State.'"

16:48 schestowitz[TR]; sometimes the best developers are angry people
16:48 matteobin; But you are not the same age as me, so you do have more experience in the field.
16:48 schestowitz[TR]; and sometimes they have good reasons to be angry
16:48 schestowitz[TR]; like, if they see truly bad code
16:48 schestowitz[TR]; and then the media slams them
16:48 matteobin; Yes, but anger leads to destruction.
16:48 schestowitz[TR]; like the tteachers who were recently fired for making exams 'too' hard... and that caused an uproar
16:48 matteobin; Love is better, even if this sounds like a poem from a chocolate box.
16:49 schestowitz[TR]; when love is the norn
16:49 schestowitz[TR]; then a lack of love is offensive
16:49 schestowitz[TR]; *norm

16:52 matteobin; People are afraid of other cultures, poor people, immigrants. There's lots of hate.
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; it's a competition for resources
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; and now there are fewer resources
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; and people look for who to blame orr take for
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; we've been there before
16:52 schestowitz[TR]; *take from

16:54 schestowitz[TR]; it's not even fair to the us
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; us did not invent this
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; matteobin: you have a PC
16:54 matteobin; We could live in peace, if we wanted to share resources.
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; some people don't have a PC
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; so we speak from position of privilege
16:54 matteobin; It's true.
16:54 schestowitz[TR]; the person without resources wants ours
16:55 schestowitz[TR]; free software talks about this
16:55 matteobin; It's true, but I would like to break this chain.
16:55 matteobin; I agree.
16:55 schestowitz[TR]; "Once GNU is written, everyone will be able to obtain good system software free, just like air."--RMS

16:56 schestowitz[TR]; these are man-made concepts
16:56 matteobin; We could live a wonderful life in peace.
16:56 schestowitz[TR]; that people owe you for things that are immaterial
16:56 schestowitz[TR]; and so power and wealth consolidate
16:56 schestowitz[TR]; and they buy the political systems
16:56 matteobin; We just have to learn how to share more and have less.
16:56 schestowitz[TR]; gnu is about sharing
16:56 matteobin; That's true as well.
16:56 schestowitz[TR]; so the owership pyramid collapses
16:56 schestowitz[TR]; because sofwtare can be copies for free
16:56 schestowitz[TR]; unlike gold
16:57 matteobin; Yes, at least the software one.
16:57 schestowitz[TR]; water is abundant also
16:57 schestowitz[TR]; air
16:57 schestowitz[TR]; but you pay for treated water
16:57 matteobin; Water is not so much abundant.
16:57 schestowitz[TR]; you can have a rain catcher in the yard
16:57 schestowitz[TR]; water for drining
16:57 schestowitz[TR]; showers are luxury
16:57 matteobin; I don't. I drink my faucet water.
16:58 matteobin; In Italy faucet water is almost great everywhere.
16:58 schestowitz[TR]; showers are relatively new invention

17:21 TR News; But Intel's Clear Linux has only two (interim/temporary) users: Michael Larabel and "Phoronix" https://www.phoronix.com/review/zen4-clear-linux Intel pays "news" sites and bloggers to shill a dead-end project
17:21 TR Bot; Ryzen 9 7950X "Zen 4" Rocks On Intel's Clear Linux - Phoronix
17:24 TR News; There is no objectively compelling reason to choose Clear Linux unless you are a) Intel employee b) so-called 'journalist' who takes money/gifts from Intel. In fact, Intel is no true ally of GPL, Linux, and software freedom. Look where they host programs and what licences they choose: (inside leaks) http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks Intel is Wintel (i.e. is WINDOWS)
17:24 TR Bot; Intel leaks - Techrights
17:25 TR News; Linux will be more mainstream not when "Intel loves Linux" but when Intel dies (along with x86). We need to politely starve Intel. That'll suffocate Windows, the e-waste partner of Intel.
17:28 TR News; Intel has an obvious conflict of interest and vested interest in Windows staying mainstream because it breaks often, it's a resource hog, and it causes people to buy more new PCs, more often, i.e. more Intel chips (or x86 patent licences from other manufacturers/suppliers/designers). Intel is no friend of the planet. Let them fail. http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel
17:28 TR Bot; Intel - Techrights

17:29 schestowitz[TR]; yes, it is mentioned above several times
17:29 schestowitz[TR]; years later even FEWER 'tech' sites mention it
17:29 schestowitz[TR]; I reckon they've nearly given up
17:30 schestowitz[TR]; should amd also make its own distro?
17:30 starstreak; 10.5% of the linux kernel is amdgpu so perhaps they should
17:30 schestowitz[TR]; it's probably just some patchset on some other distro
17:30 schestowitz[TR]; and new wallpapers
17:30 schestowitz[TR]; branding
17:30 starstreak; clearlinux isn't based on another distro, its totally new
17:31 starstreak; i ran it for a few months but switched to fedora because of the app support
17:31 schestowitz[TR]; so they claim
17:31 schestowitz[TR]; that is is standing on its own
17:32 schestowitz[TR]; frog claimed he used an indepenent distro
17:32 schestowitz[TR]; tuned out it was just modified gentoo
17:32 schestowitz[TR]; deepin said it would move away from debian
17:32 schestowitz[TR]; but what to?

17:35 schestowitz[TR]; and when I called them out on it they got all defensive
17:35 schestowitz[TR]; they got paiid one way or another
17:35 schestowitz[TR]; like intel paying the publisher
17:35 schestowitz[TR]; to make brand recognition
17:36 schestowitz[TR]; and then in recent years that mostly stopped
17:36 schestowitz[TR]; they could not really explain why you should choose this
17:36 schestowitz[TR]; even larabel barely covers it anymore
17:36 schestowitz[TR]; until today
17:36 starstreak; it was the only distro i could get working on my macbook, fedora wouldn't work
17:37 starstreak; then i got a new computer (refurbished) and fedora worked
17:38 MinceR; sounds like fedora isn't "modern" enough

17:47 schestowitz[TR]; right
17:47 schestowitz[TR]; that's why it's done with pen and paper in a booth
17:47 DaemonFC; Having an election means it doesn't always go the way you wanted it to.
17:47 schestowitz[TR]; now there is promoption of outright lies
17:48 schestowitz[TR]; like saying that the real issue is paper ballots
17:48 DaemonFC; Grown-ups should understand that sometimes they get into a disagreement and lose the disagreement and there will be another election in a few years.
17:48 schestowitz[TR]; and that we should get rid of them
17:48 DaemonFC; Actually, it's the Republicans that want to get rid of the machines now.
17:48 starstreak; when I voted in Canada, it was a paper ballot that got inserted into a counting machine
17:48 DaemonFC; They're saying Biden could never have won without cheating software.

Their ballots just go right in the trash.". He was referring to Provisional Ballots! It is absolutely shameful that your office is advising voters to use these fake ballots. Provisional Ballots are a fraud against the voter, to make him think he's voted and go away. FACT.
18:44 DaemonFC; Go in person. Make sure you get a real ballot. Otherwise you're vulnerable to all sorts of funny business. As the quote attributed to Stalin goes, "It's not who votes that counts. It's who counts the votes."."

19:51 MinceR; it also did one of the things that systemd is good at, and it predates systemd :>

19:52 frog; i think, Oasis Linux got some really neat ideas implemented already
19:52 whitenigga; they should rename systemd to mcp, cuz its the master control program
19:52 frog; nowadays, that's the only ready-made distro remaining i would consider

21:51 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Kroger is buying Albertsons, which means they will own Jewel-Osco.

21:52 DaemonFC; Now there will be less concern than there already is for keeping prices down.

21:53 schestowitz[TR]; a cartel of 3 is easier to manage than 4
21:53 DaemonFC; I'll bet Kroger doesn't change any of the Jewel signage.
21:53 DaemonFC; Then nobody even notices.

21:53 DaemonFC; That's what they usually do.
21:53 schestowitz[TR]; "you step up"

21:54 schestowitz[TR]; kroger said,
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; the CEO iirc,
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; wwhat are the shopper gonna do?
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; they have to pay
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; iirc, said it to shareholders?
21:55 DaemonFC; Yes!
21:55 DaemonFC; This is horrible.
21:55 DaemonFC; I actually liked Jewel. Went there a lot.
21:55 DaemonFC; I'm sure Kroger will ruin it.
21:56 DaemonFC; Jewel's pharmacy cash prices (with GoodRX) just can't be beat.
21:56 DaemonFC; Forget food. This will double the cash price of prescriptions overnight in many cases.
21:56 DaemonFC; Kroger's pharmacy is terrible.
21:57 DaemonFC; I go to Jewel all the time with my GoodRX app when Mandy gets a prescription that's not covered under his insurance very well
21:57 DaemonFC; It'll be like $120 for some eardrops at Walgreens, and $20 at Jewel.
21:57 DaemonFC; Swear to God!
21:57 DaemonFC; And now that there will just be Kroger, guess what....
21:57 DaemonFC; Not $20 anymore.
21:58 DaemonFC; "The merger would give Kroger control of 13 percent of the grocer market, still a distant second to Walmart which controls 22 percent of the market."
21:58 DaemonFC; That's too much for two companies.
21:58 DaemonFC; The DoJ will probably let it happen though.
21:59 DaemonFC; Two companies will control over 35% of the US grocery market at retail when this goes through.
21:59 DaemonFC; Kroger has been on a buying spree over the decades.
21:59 DaemonFC; They started out with small regional chains and rural operations that had stores numbering maybe a dozen or so.
22:00 DaemonFC; Now they're adding companies that have operations in 18 states.
22:01 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Not just prices, wages!
22:01 DaemonFC; When Kroger buys Albertsons/Jewel then they buy up the stores where all the unionized grocery workers are working at.
22:01 DaemonFC; Now, they'll still be in a union with the contract they negotiated with Jewel, and that contract will be binding upon Kroger, until it expires.
22:01 *libertybox__ is now known as techright-sec
22:02 DaemonFC; But what will the union threaten to do? There won't be another big grocery chain with a union for the workers to consider a job at.
22:02 schestowitz[TR]; yes, makes sense
22:02 DaemonFC; Most likely Kroger just tells the union members "Hey, it's us or Walmart. Fuck off!".
22:02 DaemonFC; "Here's a contract? Don't like it, who cares? This is our pay scale."
22:03 schestowitz[TR]; Freddy Kroger
22:03 DaemonFC; I have misgivings about the Worker's Rights Amendment.
22:03 DaemonFC; But I voted to add it to the state Constitution anyway.
22:04 DaemonFC; I saw what the Republicans did in Indiana with "Right to Work" and what happened was the unions, they pretty much fell apart in some sectors because so many people left that they didn't collect dues from enough members to continue running that local.
22:04 DaemonFC; So it's interesting, right? There are more union workers in Indiana now than before, BUT.....
22:04 DaemonFC; It's because of things like the state of Indiana raising the gas tax and stuff to do more road construction.
22:04 *starstreak has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
22:05 DaemonFC; And road construction workers are normally unionized.
22:05 DaemonFC; It's an attack on the people like Starbucks workers.
22:06 DaemonFC; Because instead of winning the right in an election to represent the whole store, what could end up happening is the store votes to unionize, but then the union only collects dues from the people who choose to pay the dues, while the rest work under the same contract without paying the union anything.
22:06 DaemonFC; And the union has to pay lawyers, negotiators, they have to maintain a strike pay fund, they have to do a lot of things, and this all needs money.
22:07 DaemonFC; So RTW is really about defunding the union so it won't be a threat and, hopefully, collapses.

22:08 DaemonFC; Grocery workers don't tend to be highly skilled workers.
22:08 DaemonFC; If the union can't represent the entire store it goes from weak to totally ineffective in its dealings with management.
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; similar to EPO
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; except EPO workers have knowledge and money
22:09 schestowitz[TR]; so they pay lawyers and stuff
22:09 DaemonFC; The Amendment I voted to pass mostly puts what's in the state's existing (recent) anti-RTW statute in the Constitution. This doesn't seem to actually help, but it makes it harder for "rogue" judges to do anything about.

22:10 DaemonFC; There's nothing unconstitutional about the statute.

23:24 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Ran into some financial newspaper that was commenting on high debt levels in Europe.
23:24 DaemonFC; But left out the $31 trillion in US federal debt, a third of which is "COVID" bullshit.
23:24 DaemonFC; "I smell bullshit!"
23:24 *DaemonFC sprays mjg59_ with cinnamon air freshener.
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; it's high in europe also
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; but
23:25 schestowitz[TR]; 1) other reasons (not militarism and tech graft)
23:26 schestowitz[TR]; 2) in western europe quality of life is still decent
23:27 DaemonFC; Yeah, not like this fucking horseshit where they won't even let you vote without begging.
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; voting is a short walking dinstance from home
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; or 5-minute jog
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; they only ask for the ballot card (paper)
23:28 schestowitz[TR]; no ID needed
23:29 DaemonFC; "Your Vote by Mail Ballot was issued on 9/29/2022
23:29 DaemonFC; and returned on 10/5/2022 with a status of Good
23:29 DaemonFC; and will be counted."
23:29 DaemonFC; Hey!
23:29 DaemonFC; Yep, so it did go through, it says.
23:30 DaemonFC; I alerted the Bailey campaign of this "election judge" conspiracy going on in Lake County and then warned everyone on his campaign's Facebook wall.
23:30 DaemonFC; They need some poll watchers in Lake County.
23:30 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I've decided that I'm going to fight this next election.
23:30 schestowitz[TR]; you obstruct "the steal" :-)
23:30 DaemonFC; I'm going to apply to be an election judge myself.
23:30 *reptilian_thrills (~reptilian_thrills@86hcinnuccn68.irc) has joined #techrights
23:30 DaemonFC; They say they're shorthanded and always need more.
23:31 DaemonFC; I'm going to refuse to sign any ballot challenge unless it's plainly obvious that they're not the voter.
23:31 DaemonFC; They said my signature doesn't match. My signature isn't even on my voter registration because I registered at the Illinois Secretary of State Web site.
23:32 DaemonFC; So what signature was there for them to compare it to, I wonder.
23:33 DaemonFC; The Clerk said that by signing the Affidavit, it would clear the challenge _and_ add that signature from the Affidavit to my voter file.
23:34 DaemonFC; I told her to please take me off Permanent Mail Voting because I would be coming in with a wallet full of IDs and telling them "Challenge This!" next time.
23:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I got the letter today. It had an identical affidavit in it to the one I signed at their office.
23:35 DaemonFC; But it said the other option was to demand that the Election Judges convene a meeting with me, face-to-face.
23:35 DaemonFC; If it ever happens again, we'll just do that.
23:35 DaemonFC; They can stop what they're doing. I can call them a bunch of blockheads and show them my driver's license.
23:35 DaemonFC; It'll be fun.
23:38 MinceR; 15 003149 < DaemonFC> They said my signature doesn't match. My signature isn't even on my voter registration because I registered at the Illinois Secretary of State Web site.
23:38 MinceR; obviously that's why it doesn't match :>
23:39 DaemonFC; MinceR, There's no law that says you have to have a signature on file.
23:40 DaemonFC; Electronic registration means no signature which means they should be kicking back millions of ballots as "challenged" and the majority should be Democrats, which is where this vote by mail crap came from.
23:40 DaemonFC; Of course, we know why they did it to me.
23:40 DaemonFC; The Republican election judge that signed this obscenity is obviously a Democrat and saw that I was voting for Darren Bailey.
23:41 DaemonFC; Each challenge has to be signed by a Republican and Democrat election judge, but....
23:41 DaemonFC; All you have to do to become an election judge is swear that you mainly vote for that party.
23:41 DaemonFC; Since there's no way to check, the Democrats just lie and plant their election judges on both sides and start issuing challenges to all the Republican voters.
23:42 MinceR; :>
23:46 DaemonFC; I have literally never voted for a Republican in a general election until this year. Governor Pritzker is a dictator and has been awful on the economy and has sparked a crime wave.
23:46 DaemonFC; During the lootings, arsons, and riots in 2020, he activated the Illinois National Guard, and instead of dealing with the criminals, they were downtown in Chicago directing traffic while the city was being destroyed.
23:46 whitenigga; DaemonFC: you're one crazy nigga
23:47 DaemonFC; There's also the fact that Bailey is a farmer by profession and all Pritzker ever did was inherit a hotel fortune and plaster his name all over the city via "philanthropy".
23:47 DaemonFC; Bill Gates-style.
23:48 DaemonFC; You'd think between jacking up property taxes on an entire county with 6 million people in it to fund the Forest Preserve and charging per vehicle for parking and taking all that money from the billionaires to name the exhibits, and "donations" from Walmart, ComEd, Microsoft, etc, they could have kept the Chicago Botanic Garden free admission.
23:49 DaemonFC; But no. If two of you want in for a day it costs $120 plus $8 parking now instead of $20 to park.
