15:27 TR Bot; I'm a counselor - you should avoid self-checkout in Walmart and other stores as it can cost you $1000s | The US Sun
15:27 DaemonFC; "I had one client that was an elderly woman. She was shopping, she got her kitty litter," Barger said.
15:27 DaemonFC; The elderly woman got "another customer to help her put it at the bottom of the cart. And when she got to the self-checkout, she couldn't lift it. She asked for help. The Walmart employee came over to assist," she said.
15:27 DaemonFC; The employee then gave the woman a handheld device to scan the item, Barge claimed.
15:27 DaemonFC; "You can see her on the video. Bending over trying to scan ... she thought she scanned it. She continued on with other things, and then she paid and was headed out the door and they stopped her and they said 'come with us,'" Barger explained.
15:27 DaemonFC; If the employee has to come over anyway, why doesn't the employee just scan it?
15:28 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], This sounds like that fat lady that works at Burger King.
15:28 DaemonFC; First she takes down your order wrong, then the guy in the kitchen cooks your burger raw.
15:29 DaemonFC; Yesterday, they screwed up my burger twice! Then they had two other customers come up there while I was there. Ont got the wrong item and raw burger pattied.
15:29 DaemonFC; *patties
15:29 DaemonFC; Then the other one had ordered drinks and wasn't given any cups.
15:29 DaemonFC; This is a disgrace. It's like they hire people and they've been there for a couple of years and they're on their first day.
15:31 DaemonFC; They can't figure out how to make a hamburger after two years working there.

15:33 DaemonFC; "I also had a business owner that swears he's never going to shop at Walmart again.
15:33 DaemonFC; "He spent over $2,000 buying supplies and he [missed] a block of cheese which was like a 5 or 6 dollar little block of cheese and he got a theft," Barger told The Sun.
15:33 DaemonFC; Shoppers can even be caught before they leave the store, Barger claims.
15:33 DaemonFC; She said, "I always thought that the golden rule was that you had to leave the store before they can say hey, you stole this."
15:34 DaemonFC; What kind of lawyer is this?
15:34 DaemonFC; You don't have to leave the store to be charged with shoplifting.
15:34 DaemonFC; You only need to take something "past the point of sale" without paying for it.
15:34 *MinceR puts the store on jacks
15:35 DaemonFC; My mom cracks open sodas and chips and eats/drinks it and then hands the cashier the empty bottle or the wrapper.
15:36 DaemonFC; You could argue that's not shoplifting, but if there was something wrong and she couldn't pay for it when she got up there, she could be in trouble. (Cash registers all crash, payment network down, etc.).
15:37 DaemonFC; MinceR, Mom says when I was a kid, I grabbed a stuffed bear from the department store and she didn't realize it until we were out in the parking lot. She didn't go back in though, because she had just read in the newspaper that that store had pressed charges when a customer took something back in and told them she accidentally left the store with it.
15:37 DaemonFC; So she gave it to my cousin as a birthday present.
15:39 DaemonFC; You know when you're a kid, 3 or 4 or 5, and you have vague memories. Just a few seconds or so? I actually remember being in the stroller and seeing that bear and grabbing it.
15:39 DaemonFC; Of course, it wouldn't have occurred to a child that young what they were doing. All they see is a stuffed bear that they like.
15:40 DaemonFC; Mom also made the mistake of grabbing an orange julius and putting it in the cup holder of the stroller. She said it had only been seconds, and I drank the entire thing.
15:41 DaemonFC; Those were really good. I was excited that Dairy Queen brought them back, but then I ordered one and it was nothing like the orange julius that the malls used to have.
15:41 DaemonFC; They turned it into some sort of slushie.

15:43 DaemonFC; "I remember the little walk-up shop in NYC near the corner of 3rd Ave and St. Marks Place in the mid-1960s where I had quite a few of these. Back then we watched the man break an egg into the blender and squeeze fresh oranges into it. There was a white powder as well, perhaps the vanilla. If memory serves, NYC ordered the chain to stop using fresh eggs, and the flavor went downhill from there along with the business."
15:43 DaemonFC; They probably could get away with that in the 60s.
15:44 DaemonFC; Of course they're good, you take orange juice and add a bunch of sugar to it. :P

21:15 DaemonFC; And so it's never a good time to talk to John again, but expecially until this expungement court thing plays out.
21:16 DaemonFC; It's already going to be difficult enough. The Prosecutor and the police department in that town both get an opportunity to object. Why give them "He's still attempting to contact the 'victim'!"?

21:22 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], You may want to add that a malicious Web site can easily get a TLS certificate from a CA and turn the padlock on your browser green and go ahead and load.
21:22 DaemonFC; And it's still a malicious Web site.

21:24 DaemonFC; But if you fall for a site claiming to be your bank because it has a green padlock, that doesn't help you avoid a scam.
21:24 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], One of the reasons I used to promote HTTPS Everywhere to everyone was because I believed the user should have the option to try to force it on with as many sites as possible.
21:25 *horseface (~horseface@rwq434ydswn2i.irc) has joined #techrights
21:25 DaemonFC; But I never would have argued for a system where HTTP is basically deprecated without TLS and browsers try to say there's something wrong with accessing such a Web site if you don't mind your information between your browser and that site remaining private.
21:26 DaemonFC; It's a good "upgrade". It is. It stops things like the Man-In-The-Middle Attacks that Comcast was using in order to spam its customers and inject advertisements into Web pages.
21:26 DaemonFC; So that's why I started using it.
21:26 DaemonFC; I thought it was outrageous that wherever I went, here's Comcast injecting alerts about data usage or ads for their TV package into my Google searches.
21:27 DaemonFC; HTTPS breaking that is a happy side-effect of what it does.

21:29 DaemonFC; I was big on the idea of bringing CACert into the certificates package used by Mozilla, but they always found some bullshit reason not to.
21:29 DaemonFC; Like, they didn't even want to talk about it.
21:31 DaemonFC; The whole situation with certificates is a legacy of Netscape. All of the old "players" that are really valuable and "trusted" by just about everything started out that way because Netscape Corporation put them in the Netscape Navigator browser. Then Microsoft came along with their stolen Internet Explorer product (they stiffed Spyglass Mosaic and then didn't pay them) and lobbed all the same certificates in so that sites working in Netscape
21:31 DaemonFC; Navigator would also load in Internet Explorer.
21:31 DaemonFC; And then the tragedy just kept expanding from there. Opera had to throw all the same certificates in because they've never had more than 2% of the browser market.
21:32 DaemonFC; The user has really no control over how this works. It's always been 100% Big Business. From Netscape to Microosft to Apple and Google.

21:38 schestowitz[TR]; the video mentions how LF/LE revoked 3 MILLION certs
21:39 schestowitz[TR]; didn't bother saying much about it
21:39 DaemonFC; Everything in that "chain of trust" was broken and all the sites that used it had to get new certificates, and many Windows and Mac developers got caught with their pants down and had security alerts warning the users not to install the software that the OS was saying "THIS IS FINE!" about yesterday.
21:39 DaemonFC; That was hilarious, and sad. Sad because everyone watched what ensued and nothing was fixed.

21:43 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], We're just going to try to stay here as many years as possible.
21:43 DaemonFC; As long as this landlord will still renew our lease.
21:44 DaemonFC; I don't think he's a nut. But I have had landlords who were nuts, and like that one in Chicago that kept breaking all of the landlord laws and letting herself in and turning the water heater and heat way down and letting us freeze our asses off in the winter.
21:44 DaemonFC; That was just completely toxic.
21:44 DaemonFC; Then she kept raising everyone's rent $100 a month every year. Not just us and way before COVID.
21:44 DaemonFC; My war with her finally escalated to the city and the bankruptcy court.
21:45 DaemonFC; Then we move out and hadn't managed to go in there to clean yet. You wait until everything's out to make cleaning as easy as possible before you toss them the keys.

21:46 DaemonFC; So she goes in and gets angry that we hadn't mopped yet and starts taking pictures. Again, illegal entry because our rent was paid and not expired yet and no notice.
21:47 DaemonFC; She threatened to sue me because of an exploded can of Pepsi in the freezer. It had happened two weeks prior to moving out and I figured turn off the fridge for a little while when it's empty and wipe it up and plug the thing back in.
21:47 DaemonFC; Landlord be like "I had to spend 10 minutes with a can of EZ Off Oven Cleaner from the cheap Dollar Store......$500".

21:49 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], They always figure out some way to rob you of your deposit when you move out so it's best o just live there as long as nothing outrageous happens.
21:49 DaemonFC; People who move around a lot end up losing a lot of money to deposits that don't get returned.
21:49 DaemonFC; It's another way rich people screw you and dare you to do anything about it.
21:50 DaemonFC; They do it to 50 people by the time 1 sues them in small claims court and they get ordered to hand just that one back. = Do it to everyone!
21:53 DaemonFC; If you get a month's rent out of 100 people by finding some excuse to not return their deposit money as you turn over vacant apartments that year it's like you rented out ~9 apartments that year you didn't really have.
21:53 DaemonFC; I mean, it's not even subtle. They brag about all the reasons they find to do this in /r/landlord.
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; depends and varies
21:54 schestowitz[TR]; if you find a honest homeowner, then you might be lucky

21:55 DaemonFC; This one doesn't seem to sue anyone.
21:56 DaemonFC; He just goes and gets them evicted maybe if they haven't paid but I haven't seen him actually suing anyone for damages.
21:56 DaemonFC; Probably just swipes their deposits and calls it good.
21:56 schestowitz[TR]; that's like a lawsuit
21:56 schestowitz[TR]; the despsit it money you already lost
21:56 schestowitz[TR]; and might be lucky to get back on appeal
21:56 DaemonFC; Gives them the landlord special. Damaged trim, uneven drywall, mold in everything.
21:57 schestowitz[TR]; so they want annual rent worth 6% of the home
21:57 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Don't push it. They own the judges.
21:57 schestowitz[TR]; PLUS for the home to stay unchanged
21:57 schestowitz[TR]; despite aging
21:57 DaemonFC; Despite aging, despite shit happens, yeah.
21:58 DaemonFC; Unless you can put it in mothballs, how do you make sure there's no damage from their sink overflowing from their own shitty plumbing?
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; and they don't invest in repairs and modernising
21:58 schestowitz[TR]; so obv. they blame the tennants
21:58 DaemonFC; Or you might have accidentally damaged some trim with a carpet cleaner, but that shit happens.
21:58 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], You mentioned stuck windows.

21:59 schestowitz[TR]; and they have proprioetary compkjnents
21:59 schestowitz[TR]; so it's hard to repair thewm
21:59 DaemonFC; Now there's a nice brown stain on some of the trim.
21:59 schestowitz[TR]; cheaper to just replacer the whole window
21:59 DaemonFC; Some of the drywall near the trim here and there cracked and fell apart. It's obvious that they improperly repaired it with drywall mud or something at some point to make it look better long enough to rent it out.

23:09 DaemonFC; The difference is one of civil vs. criminal liability.
23:09 schestowitz[TR]; MinceR: ZIP
23:10 MinceR; ?
23:10 DaemonFC; You overflow a sink, probably the worst thing that happens is the landlord takes your deposit and rips out and replaces some trim and calls it a day.
23:10 DaemonFC; Throws paint on it and rents it out again.
23:10 schestowitz[TR]; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_cube
23:10 TR Bot; Zip cube - Wikipedia
23:10 DaemonFC; It's debatable in court over why a sink even overflowed in the first place.

23:11 schestowitz[TR]; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_bomb
23:11 TR Bot; Zip bomb - Wikipedia
23:11 DaemonFC; Did it overflow because there's crappy plumbing with straws and tampons coming up out of the pipe or did it overflow because you're an idiot and left the sink stopper in while you went off to do something else?
23:11 MinceR; ic
23:12 DaemonFC; Most landlords aren't in the lawsuit business unless you did something really bad.
23:12 DaemonFC; Not paying your rent for months accrues damages that are grounds for a lawsuit pretty fast.
23:13 DaemonFC; There's a difference between paying the maintainence man to go in and replace some trim and patch nail holes and "This guy didn't pay me and it took 5 months to get him out *and* he was in there tearing the place up!".
23:13 DaemonFC; So it's all a matter of threshold. Few people take you to court if they won't get a big ruling.

23:14 TR Bot; SparkyLinux 6.4 Run Through - Invidious
23:14 DaemonFC; In this case, the damages would have to go hundreds of dollars past the deposit or something.
23:14 DaemonFC; And the ruling's half the battle. You still have to figure out if they have any exposed assets and where they are and enforce it yourself.
23:15 DaemonFC; There's a lot of crooked lawyers out there who advise people to sue when it's not in their best interest.
23:15 DaemonFC; Like, "getting blood from a turnip" even if you did win. And you've still gotta pay the lawyer, or they turn around and sue you, even if you didn't collect.
23:16 DaemonFC; The reason why landlords hate dealing with people who have had bankruptcies and evictions, but mostly evictions, is because it's like a haunted house.
23:16 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: sounds like you are having a tough time
23:16 DaemonFC; Your creditors want you to think of a bankruptcy as something you'll never recover from.
23:16 schestowitz[TR]; from landlord and pushbacks while looking for job due to polie status
23:16 schestowitz[TR]; join the club
23:16 schestowitz[TR]; you're not alone
23:16 DaemonFC; And it's not true. People survive bankruptcy all the time, and the second trip through the haunted house isn't as scary.
23:17 schestowitz[TR]; but some of that belongs in another channel
23:17 schestowitz[TR]; as it's very personal
23:17 DaemonFC; So they don't like people who have been through the haunted house and aren't scared anymore, because they know where the guy pops out and grabs you.
23:18 DaemonFC; I think Capitalism works mostly by keeping people afraid of not paying their bills.
23:18 DaemonFC; To an illogical degree.
23:18 schestowitz[TR]; he only thing worse than your situation is the same situation plus debt plus kids
23:18 schestowitz[TR]; Bailout Biden would bail out Microsoft, not families with kids

23:19 DaemonFC; I'm sure his mother is in the accounts department at Zurich NA this morning not able to live it down.
23:19 DaemonFC; I mean, that's part of the hazard of having children, that they grow up to disappoint you and ruin you by reputation of being related to them.
23:19 DaemonFC; You know, "Oh don't go near her. She's Dogfuckboy's mom!".

23:21 DaemonFC; Most of them don't realize it.

23:23 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Here's what some random shithead on TikTok said.
23:23 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
23:23 DaemonFC; Me: "Wait a minute....Didn't you used to be CBS News?"
23:23 schestowitz[TR]; that's "journalism" now..
23:23 schestowitz[TR]; for "engagement"
23:23 schestowitz[TR]; while ignoring trhe biggest issues
23:23 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Gannett brought in "entertainment executives".
23:24 DaemonFC; They're the "largest newspaper company in America".
23:24 DaemonFC; Figure it out.
23:24 DaemonFC; If you still do get a newspaper it's probably just what people on TikTok said printed out.

23:30 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: in which context?
23:30 schestowitz[TR]; Scientific? Life choices?
23:30 DaemonFC; Time. Events.
23:30 TR News; Microsoft is a cancer that attaches itself... https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/db8cb5d9-56d6-a00a-9cf0-4deec9056433@paragon-software.com/
23:30 TR Bot; [GIT PULL] ntfs3: bugfixes for 6.0 - Konstantin Komarov
23:31 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: there is a movie about this
23:31 DaemonFC; It feels more rigid and inflexible to me. Like, all of your important choices are irrelevant and things have been set in place to correct for them and box you in.
23:31 DaemonFC; Maybe that's a "force of the universe" or something. I don't know.

23:32 DaemonFC; Like, either we have no choices and we only think we do, or we actually can make them, but they don't matter because something else will happen and neutralize the outcome and put everything back "where it should be".
23:32 DaemonFC; I mean, people have gone crazy thinking about this.
23:33 TR News; Cancer is a Microsoft that attaches itself...
23:33 DaemonFC; Even if that's not how "time" works, it is sort of how "society" and "the system" work.
23:33 DaemonFC; They keep everyone in their place and make it very hard to overcome the trajectory you were on.
23:33 schestowitz[TR]; yeah, that is partly true
23:33 DaemonFC; So there's something malignant and oppressive at work here. Or it at least feels that way.
23:33 schestowitz[TR]; eventualities are hard tom change
23:34 schestowitz[TR]; like how long you live
23:34 schestowitz[TR]; but it's not solel;y in your dna
23:34 schestowitz[TR]; stress, smoking..
23:34 schestowitz[TR]; though you could argue that narcotics are also in the dna
23:34 schestowitz[TR]; and inevitably you fall back onto those
23:34 DaemonFC; Yeah, so maybe you go see your doctor and take your pills and you live a while longer.
23:34 DaemonFC; And maybe you don't.
23:34 schestowitz[TR]; thjose pills acan be bad
23:35 schestowitz[TR]; your body stops producing things on its own
23:35 schestowitz[TR]; it might be OK if the supply always comes
23:35 techuser; horseface: drugs topic
23:35 schestowitz[TR]; but your body becomes more dependent on the meds
23:35 DaemonFC; The years those pills tend to add are very low quality of life years, at the end, when the body is trying to die anyway and all your family is gone and you're in a nursing home in a double-bunked Medicaid room.
23:35 DaemonFC; With MRSA.
23:36 horseface; rofl
23:36 schestowitz[TR]; kids don't ant to see their parents dead
23:36 horseface; great!!!
23:36 horseface; omg
23:36 schestowitz[TR]; but their want their parents' inheritance money
23:36 horseface; I need to score a PACKET of CIGARETTES, though...
23:36 horseface; uhh
23:36 schestowitz[TR]; quite a dilemma for them
23:37 horseface; schestowitz[TR], which brand of tobacco do you SMOKE!?!?
23:37 horseface; :-3
23:37 horseface; btw...

23:37 schestowitz[TR]; Tobac Co.

23:38 schestowitz[TR]; Producto le Canada
23:38 techuser; depends on the parents
23:38 techuser; and depends on the inheritance
23:39 techuser; and on the children personality too
23:41 schestowitz[TR]; some kids live off their parents' pension
23:41 schestowitz[TR]; so they want to prolong their lives
23:41 schestowitz[TR]; it's a complicated subject
23:41 *techuser has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
23:41 schestowitz[TR]; capitalism distorted things
23:41 schestowitz[TR]; no more farm owning
23:42 schestowitz[TR]; yoiu evern read stories about kids kkilling their parents
23:42 schestowitz[TR]; for purely fianncial reasons
23:42 DaemonFC; I want to say this stench coming in through the doorframe is probably the landlord's fault.
23:43 schestowitz[TR]; or arranging euthanasia
23:43 DaemonFC; You know how they are. Oh, the wood looks like hell? Send Rubin out with a bottle of Old English!
23:43 DaemonFC; The stuff has a fairly obnoxious odor.
23:43 DaemonFC; It looks like they used about a gallon of it.
23:43 DaemonFC; :P
23:43 schestowitz[TR]; so you are now candidates for eviction?

23:45 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I don't see why we would be.
23:46 DaemonFC; Old English doesn't actually smell bad right away.
23:46 DaemonFC; This is probably just how it got into the wood and stunk it up after he did it a year or two ago.
23:46 DaemonFC; My dad bought that wood chest and put Old English on it. Looked fantastic and then a couple of years later smelled really bad if you got near it.
23:47 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I don't think he meant to list our apartment.
23:47 schestowitz[TR]; delayed response
23:47 schestowitz[TR]; all materials have downsides
23:47 schestowitz[TR]; metal rusts
23:47 schestowitz[TR]; plastic is... plastic
23:47 DaemonFC; He put some images up and they definitely were not our unit.
23:47 schestowitz[TR]; wood rots
23:48 schestowitz[TR]; bricks also have issues, depending what they're made from
23:48 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I can't see him throwing us out. I really can't.
23:48 DaemonFC; You throw out people who pay their rent and don't have the cops out all the time and aren't tearing the shit out of the place? No.
23:49 DaemonFC; You get someone new, you have no idea what they're going to do.
23:49 schestowitz[TR]; so you have a boss who cannot even keep abrast of what he "owns"
23:49 schestowitz[TR]; *abreast
23:49 DaemonFC; Most people value predictability over unknown factor.
23:49 DaemonFC; Especially if it isn't even clear how an unknown factor would even benefit them.
23:49 DaemonFC; It's just basic psychology, Roy.
23:50 MinceR; why not try acidic psychology instead
23:50 schestowitz[TR]; MinceR: now you are just being toxic
23:51 MinceR; :>
23:51 techuser; cuddlybear66 thinks she would be a good parent, and she would raise good children
23:51 MinceR; not all acids are toxic
23:51 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Most people are happy if they get something decent for breakfast, make a pot of coffee, read a book, take a nap, don't get any bills or threats in the mail, rub one out, take a shit, shower, shave, and go to sleep.
23:51 schestowitz[TR]; techuser: possibly true
23:51 techuser; I'm highly suspicious about it, also considering that many parents think so and then nothing good happens
23:51 schestowitz[TR]; if she is bulgarian
23:51 DaemonFC; People don't like surprises.
23:51 DaemonFC; Unless they won the lottery, but that almost never happens.
23:52 techuser; a lot of surprises can happen over 18 years and more
23:52 DaemonFC; So it's hardly worth mentioning.
23:52 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], The more attention you draw to yourself, the more difficult life gets.
23:52 schestowitz[TR]; true
23:52 schestowitz[TR]; I found out last month
23:52 schestowitz[TR]; saying I'd leave my job
23:53 DaemonFC; LOL!
23:53 DaemonFC; You warned them!?
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; big mistake
23:53 DaemonFC; NEVER warn them!
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; no
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; not them
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; but it causes snvy
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; and then vengeance
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; *Envy
23:53 DaemonFC; Oh, so people are pissed off at you now because you get out of there and they don't.
23:53 DaemonFC; So they start looking for ways to slime you before you go.
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; they have higher bills
23:53 schestowitz[TR]; they can't stop working
23:54 schestowitz[TR]; they don't even like their job
23:54 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], The best thing to do is keep your fixed expenses as low as possible.
23:54 DaemonFC; The only thing where I don't budget terribly hard is food.
23:54 DaemonFC; We both like to ear.
23:54 schestowitz[TR]; so far this month we moved one site off to a new system, OS, workflow
23:54 DaemonFC; *eat
23:54 schestowitz[TR]; and it went smoothly
23:54 schestowitz[TR]; techrights will be next
23:54 DaemonFC; So I mean, you're two bad meals from a prison riot. Every warden knows that.
23:54 schestowitz[TR]; we have oversupplky of food atm
23:54 schestowitz[TR]; too much discounted food
23:55 schestowitz[TR]; so I fatten myself eating food to "save" food
23:55 schestowitz[TR]; anyway, subject change
23:55 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], It's usually best to never mention what you're planning until it's too late for other people to react negatively to any real effect.
23:55 DaemonFC; If that's possible.
23:55 schestowitz[TR]; techuser: bugarians are good people
23:56 *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)
23:56 *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)
23:56 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: what jobs did you apply for?
23:56 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], The more lead-in time you give them, the more damage they can cause on their way out.
23:56 DaemonFC; You know that's why they fire you over Zoom now. Used to be security giving you the perp walk.
23:57 DaemonFC; Now you just call a Zoom meeting and everyone's already locked out of their email and git access before they even know they've been fired.
