00:37 DaemonFC; That's actually, not far from the truth.
00:37 schestowitz; Satan Nuttela, bnchs called him
00:37 DaemonFC; The H1-B visa is basically slavery.
00:38 DaemonFC; It has no path to a green card or citizenship.
00:38 bnchs; DaemonFC: it does
00:38 DaemonFC; And if you lose the job you have 90 days to find another slave master or leave the country.
00:38 bnchs; you have to go get a PERM cert
00:38 schestowitz; got some good news re MICROSOFT
00:38 schestowitz; doing a quick post...
00:38 bnchs; which requires you to open your job up for US citizens for a month
00:38 DaemonFC; Matt GULAG is fine with this.
00:38 DaemonFC; He got his.
00:39 bnchs; and if nobody qualified for it takes it
00:39 DaemonFC; Now it can be a bunch of "nasty brown people" that will submit to sexual harassment and rape at Microsoft, and low pay, and keep quiet.
00:39 DaemonFC; That's how they like it there anyway.
00:39 bnchs; then the H-1B worker passes the PERM cert and can use it to get their green card
00:39 DaemonFC; Everyone too terrified to say anything about the manager raping them at the "Christmas party".
00:39 DaemonFC; And threatening their visa if they report it.
00:40 DaemonFC; Like what happens at Bethesda.
00:40 bnchs; uhh actually i did some research on that
00:40 bnchs; you can report labor violations and such to the DoL
00:40 bnchs; in case you get fired, they'll allow you to adjust your status, or allow you a much longer time
00:41 schestowitz; DaemonFC: may need you to check the draft in a moment, maybe add a remark
00:42 bnchs; and if you're paying your foreign workers way less than you should be paying
00:42 bnchs; then you'll be paying even MORE in backwages and fees
00:42 bnchs; fines*
00:42 bnchs; once someone gives an anonymous tip
00:45 bnchs; you can't really cheat on this, because the DoL mandates that you pay foreign workers as much as US citizens working the same job
00:45 DaemonFC; Microsoft wants a bunch of trapped workers it can pay a lot less too.
00:45 DaemonFC; And turning it into a whore house by threatening their visas.....bonus.
00:45 starstreak; microsoft will likely be allowed to purchase activision

00:46 TR Bot; Techrights Was Right: Microsoft Fired More Than 4 Times What the Media Said Last Week | Techrights
00:46 DaemonFC; Jeremy Soule is a rapist who worked at Microsoft during the incidents.
00:46 DaemonFC; He just slinked away and went dark.
00:46 DaemonFC; He's not charged with anything.
00:49 schestowitz; typical
00:49 schestowitz; his victim was "unworthy"
00:52 DaemonFC; Windows is a remaining value product. The thing was built shoddily a long time ago and expanded with ticky tacky throughout the years. It's not surprising you'd be cutting sales and evangelism jobs when the people who are buying more licenses are dwindling and were using it all along anyway and now need it to run legacy applications.
00:52 schestowitz; DaemonFC: when firing means deportationm
00:53 schestowitz; and financial ruin
00:53 DaemonFC; It is not unlike an aging shopping mall from the 70s that started losing anchor tenants and now struggles to keep an Applebee's and a gym.
00:53 schestowitz; DaemonFC: will quote?
00:53 DaemonFC; Yeah.
00:53 schestowitz; ok
00:54 DaemonFC; It's the same phenomenon that's going on with the mall. They can't use 90% of the space anymore no matter how hard they try.
00:54 DaemonFC; So it gets bought out in a dilapidated state by slumlord after slumlord until the city buys it just to demolish it because it's turning into a place for squatters and criminals.
00:55 DaemonFC; The market has fundamentally changed.
00:55 MinceR; pray i do not alter it any further
00:55 DaemonFC; There are alternatives that require little effort and offer more, and people don't have the funds for the eccentricities they used to have.
00:55 schestowitz; now doing a post about UEFI
00:56 DaemonFC; schestowitz I went to Mall Wart today to have them balance one of my tires, again.
00:56 DaemonFC; It chucked another wheel weight.
00:56 DaemonFC; So I went shopping for odds and ends and it wasn't so bad really.
00:56 DaemonFC; Until I got to a checkout and realized there's only two human cashiers left.
00:57 DaemonFC; So I aimed for one of those and it was much more pleasant than a "self-checkout".
00:57 starstreak; techrights = infowars
00:57 DaemonFC; They put in so many self-checks because they don't want you to feel like you have a choice.
00:57 DaemonFC; It's dark psychology.
00:58 DaemonFC; So there's all these people here doing unpaid labor for the store they shop at, who could be accused of stealing things that didn't scan.
00:58 DaemonFC; And sweating and straining to lift stuff.
00:58 DaemonFC; And I'm over there and the lady is scanning and bagging everything for me.
00:59 DaemonFC; Richard Stallman said he steers clear of self-checkouts and says "When you use those, you're putting people out of a job." as he goes by.
00:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
01:00 DaemonFC; schestowitz I'm not being paid by Walmart. They can fuck right off.
01:00 DaemonFC; You know. When they want to pay me $15 an hour for the time it takes to bag my goods and pay for them, I'll consider it.
01:01 DaemonFC; They don't want to do that. They figure if it takes 6 minutes to bag everything and pay, they save $1.60 in labor by not paying an employee.
01:01 DaemonFC; That's all it is. You have thousands of people going through those things, it adds up.
01:01 DaemonFC; At least to a bean counter at corporate.
01:01 DaemonFC; But studies show that you get more theft than it saves in labor costs.
01:01 DaemonFC; There's a lot of reasons for this.
01:02 DaemonFC; It's easier to slip past them with something you didn't pay for.
01:02 DaemonFC; You don't have to look a person who works there in the eye and know you're stealing.
01:02 DaemonFC; So the psychological threshold to start taking things is lower.
01:03 DaemonFC; People are less likely to do things they'll feel bad about. I mean, not everyone feels bad about doing things that are objectively wrong. Like, take mjg59_ for example.
01:03 DaemonFC; He switched from doing useful work in exchange for money into carrying water for Microsoft.
01:03 DaemonFC; What he's doing to the world is worse than going to Walmart and stealing a TV and running out with it.
01:04 DaemonFC; It costs everyone in the world who uses a computer something whether they realize it or not.
01:05 DaemonFC; There's people who won't knowingly do wrong, there are the people who know it's wrong but it's a paycheck (Matt), and there's people in-between who do wrong but figure out some way why it's not really all that bad in the bigger picture so they can sleep better.
01:05 DaemonFC; The people in between are most people.
01:06 DaemonFC; Like, there are people who will steal but won't cheat on their spouse. There are people who will dangerously speed but won't shoplift and aren't a pedophile. I mean, everyone does something wrong, and has their limits.
01:07 DaemonFC; I mean, you may well find me driving 90 in the 55 but I do have a moral core in most other ways.
01:07 DaemonFC; Speeding is "illegal, but not evil".
01:08 DaemonFC; It's arguably "dangerous to the community" and therefore against the law, but few would argue that speeding is the moral equivalent of rape.
01:08 DaemonFC; I say arguably because the government deliberately sets the speed limit to "old grandma" because it wants to write bigger tickets and make more money.
01:09 DaemonFC; So a road where 50 is safe can often have a speed limit of 30.
01:10 DaemonFC; So everyone who speeds is effectively "substituting their own sensibility for the priorities of the state". And that alone is something the state does not like one little bit.

01:11 DaemonFC; schestowitz They enforce one type of law. The one that means large fines.
01:11 DaemonFC; And they only do it to people who can't fight back and are unlikely to vote to change things.
01:12 DaemonFC; The Waukegan Police are so corrupt that they were basically former Mayor Cunningham's goon squad.
01:12 DaemonFC; They would NOT investigate him, so he was raping and groping people and they wouldn't even take the complaints.

02:27 DaemonFC; MinceR: Well, it's mostly going to be the same thing unless IBM changes their policy to hide more of the source code and threaten people who use it.
02:28 DaemonFC; Right now the only thing that's really "affected" much is the specific kernel that RHEL itself uses.
02:28 TR News; "One is when people use it to shut down others. The difference between I need a break from thinking about this vs you need to give up! You need to stop trying!. The latter is whats not OK." gemini://idiomdrottning.org/doomers-over-the-line
02:28 DaemonFC; The entire userspace is still in a public repo.
02:28 DaemonFC; So you could technically rebuild the same exact userspace that RHEL uses and run it on top of a kernel you got out of CentOS Stream if you wanted to and you'd have very nearly RHEL anyway.
02:29 DaemonFC; This is basically being done for FUD purposes.
02:29 TR News; Free Speech gemini://ainent.xyz/gemlog/2022-04-30-free-speech.gmi "I hesitated to even write this, but it needs said. I did tone it down just a bit, in the interest of legitimate dialogue."
02:29 DaemonFC; "Well, it's not THE ACTUAL SAME KERNEL."
02:29 MinceR; maybe dehomag will create a tool that puts a distro image together from systemd, Linux, gnome and whatever odd piece they haven't replaced or assimilated yet
02:29 DaemonFC; Well, as far as I know the kernel doesn't affect userspace programs very much as a matter of policy, and the CentOS kernel is just a little ahead of RHEL as far as patches that they're not sure about yet.
02:29 DaemonFC; But it's still a very conservative and RHEL-like kernel.
02:29 MinceR; if they manage to make their tiny minds up on which they want: "every Linux distro should be identical to ours" or "nobody should be able to replicate rHELL"
02:30 MinceR; they seem to be confused currently.
02:30 psydruid; Demagogue OS
02:30 MinceR; or maybe they want everyone to copy fedora, not rHELL
02:30 MinceR; i suspect there's not a lot of difference
02:30 DaemonFC; RHEL userspace (public repo) plus CentOS Stream kernel = like 99.987% RHEL.
02:30 DaemonFC; So the FUD comes from "Yeah but it's not 100%."
02:31 MinceR; or maybe they just want to ban everyone else from distributing Linux, just haven't figured out a way to do it
02:31 DaemonFC; You don't have to use the rest of CentOS Stream as a base. Just the kernel.
02:31 psydruid; last time I tried rHELL it was even worse than any version of FEDora
02:31 starstreak; so just use something else
02:31 psydruid; they should just ban everyone from using Linux

02:59 schestowitz; and I'm like 95KG
02:59 schestowitz; so to cool down it's harder
02:59 DaemonFC; schestowitz I have the dehumidifier set to "comfort". It's usually not running unless I turn off the air conditioner for a while. Then it becomes humid in here, so that turns on and sucks out the humidity so the air conditioner doesn't freeze over when I turn it on again.
03:00 DaemonFC; And I have all kinds of air purifiers.
03:00 DaemonFC; So the air quality in here was still very good even while it looked like hell outside because of Canada.
03:00 DaemonFC; I love liberals. "We're gonna plant trees to offset duh carbon!"
03:00 DaemonFC; Later, all the trees catch fire.
03:00 DaemonFC; At once.
03:01 DaemonFC; Release the KRAKEN! Errr, carbon.

03:08 MinceR; especially since the comrades decided that insulation was for the decadent west and for the comrades themselves.
03:08 schestowitz; to this date
03:09 DaemonFC; LOL
03:09 MinceR; Berlin also has much less shitty buildings
03:09 schestowitz; i know someone whose roof fell due to lack of insulation
03:09 schestowitz; the roof was rotting
03:09 schestowitz; fell on his head one day
03:09 MinceR; but hey, at least they designed the concrete box for their known target audience: the doors are sized so that starving people can fit through.

03:27 schestowitz; lots of layoffs
03:27 schestowitz; and each time it's brought up we also get trolled in IRC
03:27 schestowitz; not just this summer
03:27 DaemonFC; schestowitz There have been like 4-5 other Feltas in the entire country since Social Security kept records.
03:27 DaemonFC; One of them was my grandfather.
03:27 DaemonFC; So that's at least two in my family.
03:27 schestowitz; hmmm
03:27 DaemonFC; The first record was someone born in 1897 from Social Security.
03:28 MinceR; i Felta disturbance in the Force
03:28 schestowitz; hm.. could you locate the other two?
03:28 DaemonFC; Yeah, it's obscure to say the least, but who knows if I could figure out who the others were.
03:28 DaemonFC; Maybe they would have been in a released census.
03:28 DaemonFC; They take a census every 10 years and they're public records after 70 years I think.
03:29 immibis; this channel is constantly trolled by schestowitz and DaemonFC
03:29 schestowitz; DaemonFC has been here since 2008
03:29 schestowitz; how about you?
03:29 DaemonFC; The latest publicly available records are 1950.
03:30 starstreak; daemonfc is a nazi tho
03:30 schestowitz; DaemonFC: did you not see your dad in person for years?
03:30 schestowitz; that would be... weird and sad
03:30 DaemonFC; The first publicly released census records I might appear in will be released in 2060 for the 1990 year.
03:30 starstreak; DaemonFC: Racism and Transphobia since 2008
03:30 DaemonFC; I will be 76 years old.
03:30 schestowitz; starstreak: so you would rationalise assulting him
03:31 DaemonFC; schestowitzDaemonFC: did you not see your dad in person for years?
03:31 DaemonFC; I think the last time I saw my dad was in 2012 or something.
03:31 DaemonFC; He doesn't care that I exist.
03:32 TR News; Microsoft making a ton of noise right now. Will that distract from the large scale of layoffs it "implemented" silently? IBM did the same.
03:32 DaemonFC; schestowitz I don't think it's personal.
03:32 DaemonFC; He also doesn't talk to any of his brothers or sisters.
03:32 schestowitz; and your bother?
03:32 schestowitz; *brother
03:32 DaemonFC; Nope.
03:32 schestowitz; hhmmm... bad dad
03:33 DaemonFC; He pretty much just does what he wants to do all the time.
03:33 DaemonFC; Doesn't pay attention to anyone but Jan.
03:33 DaemonFC; Maybe their cats.
03:33 schestowitz; are they married?
03:33 schestowitz; no kids, i guess
03:33 DaemonFC; Yeah, they got married in 2000 I think.
03:33 schestowitz; he learned from the first time
03:34 DaemonFC; No.
03:34 DaemonFC; Jan is sterile.
03:34 DaemonFC; And she hates having kids around because she wanted them and couldn't have them.
03:34 DaemonFC; She had lasik eye surgery and it blinded her.
03:34 *tessier has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
03:35 schestowitz; both eeyes?
03:35 DaemonFC; No other doctor would testify against the one at the mall that blinded her but said off the record he blinds a lot of people because he rushes it to get more people through so he can make more money.
03:35 DaemonFC; Yep.
03:35 DaemonFC; Fucked both of them.
03:35 DaemonFC; She said on a good day it's like looking through lace curtains.
03:36 DaemonFC; She was a claims adjuster for a health insurance company.
03:36 DaemonFC; They fired her because of her disability.
03:36 DaemonFC; She didn't get worker's comp.
03:36 DaemonFC; They denied her Social Security Disability claim.
03:36 DaemonFC; And she's been living off my dad ever since.
03:36 *Despatche has quit (connection closed)
03:36 schestowitz; another day in Murica
03:37 schestowitz; meanwhile my former boss hide in Washington
03:37 DaemonFC; Social Security said there's probably a job for a blind woman so no disability check. Bye.
03:37 schestowitz; hides from his ex wives too
03:37 schestowitz; made 4 daughters, ran away
03:37 schestowitz; stole pension money from his workers, too
03:37 DaemonFC; schestowitz I don't know how far she persisted.
03:37 DaemonFC; If she fought it to an administrative law judge or federal court, she would have won after 4-5 years.
03:37 schestowitz; capitalism :-)
03:37 DaemonFC; So she probably just took no for an answer.
03:38 starstreak; suspended Roy cuz he refused to use zoom or answer the phone
03:38 *tessier (~treed@73nxw45z97nni.irc) has joined #techrights
03:38 DaemonFC; schestowitz Social Security only approves 16% of disability claims on the initial claim.
03:38 schestowitz; it is untenable
03:38 DaemonFC; You have to have a reconsideration by another DDS, which approves 8% because it's just another person at the same office looking at the same file.
03:38 schestowitz; not just think tanks of oligarchs say so
03:39 starstreak; "I WONT USE ZOOM! I DEMAND A HUMAN RIGHTS TRIBUNAL!"
03:39 schestowitz; they cannot insure what's coming
03:39 DaemonFC; Then by the time you get to the ALJ, they'll approve 50-80%.
03:39 schestowitz; too many out of work (not just US issue)
03:39 DaemonFC; Yes.
03:39 DaemonFC; Social Security always says no.
03:39 schestowitz; the whole "it's not just here" argument isn't relevant
03:39 DaemonFC; Because they find out that no matter how much of a basket case the person is, they'll usually take no and leave.
03:39 schestowitz; I am talking abouut Land of the Dreams in isolation
03:39 schestowitz; for us, the NHS has perils
03:39 DaemonFC; Long before they speak to a judge.
03:39 schestowitz; because it is underfunded
03:40 schestowitz; and the funding comes from taxes off paychecks
03:40 schestowitz; about a quarter of mole of adults here don't work
03:40 schestowitz; maybe a third already
03:40 DaemonFC; Social Security only says YES on the initial or reconsideration when there is an overwhelming probability they'll be overturned.
03:40 DaemonFC; But a lot of people don't know there's a process here.
03:40 DaemonFC; So they go away.
03:40 DaemonFC; Then the government keeps the money.
03:41 schestowitz; and count you as not unemployed
03:41 DaemonFC; YES
03:41 schestowitz; hence, employed
03:41 DaemonFC; They don't care as long as you go away and don't ask them for anything.
03:42 DaemonFC; They would rather that you got pissed and went to a mall and shot 10 people over it than win your Disability or Unemployment case.
03:42 DaemonFC; That's how evil the American government is.
03:43 schestowitz; "free-dumb"
03:43 DaemonFC; schestowitz If you're already on SSDI you'll probably keep it forever unless you're an obvious fraud case or tell them you think you've gotten better.

03:43 TR Bot; TenFourFox Development: Floodgap downtime
03:43 DaemonFC; But their goal is to make it harder to get every year so eventually the ones getting it die and nobody else is on it.
03:44 DaemonFC; Then it just won't exist.
03:44 DaemonFC; They won't say that, but it's what they are doing.
03:44 schestowitz; they know there is an issue
03:44 schestowitz; they give weapons to cops
03:44 DaemonFC; They're under pressure to cut Social Security Disability, but Congress doesn't want to repeal it and admit there's nothing.
03:44 schestowitz; and fight their own population
03:45 DaemonFC; So they just make it impossible to win, a bit at a time.
03:45 schestowitz; weapons like armoured vehicles
03:45 DaemonFC; Until it ceases to exist and yet is still there.
03:45 schestowitz; typical
03:45 schestowitz; formality only
03:45 schestowitz; the patent system can be a lot like it
03:45 DaemonFC; Yeah, in the 1990s it was real easy to win a Disability case.
03:46 schestowitz; back then the economy was better
03:46 DaemonFC; Walk in there with records from a psychiatrist saying you had ADHD and it was making it impossible to work.
03:46 schestowitz; now, us economy is just borrow borrow borrow
03:46 schestowitz; then bailout microsoft and weapons companies
03:46 schestowitz; even send illegal weapons to ukraine
03:46 schestowitz; for sale
03:47 DaemonFC; schestowitz You can still win a Disability case, but the rules get harder every year. But if you're a reconsideration case, they have to use the rules from your initial determination.
03:47 DaemonFC; Be it 1990 or 2007.
03:47 DaemonFC; And the burden is on them.
03:47 DaemonFC; So they send out a mailer and they give up and they focus on people who are trying to claim it now.
03:47 schestowitz; Did Jan really need that treatment which blinded her?
03:47 schestowitz; i have a friend who had that done
03:47 schestowitz; sounded a bit risky to me
03:47 DaemonFC; No, it was a vanity thing so she wouldn't have to wear glasses.
03:47 DaemonFC; Like most boomers.
03:48 schestowitz; all this to avoid some spectacles or contact lenses
03:48 DaemonFC; This is why I wear glasses, schestowitz
03:48 DaemonFC; For every mom (successful lasik) there's a Jan.
03:48 *tessier has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
03:48 schestowitz; yeah
03:48 schestowitz; nothing wrong with them
03:48 schestowitz; i never had them myself
03:48 DaemonFC; And they just won't say that because it's $4,000 a patient.
03:48 schestowitz; but happy to try when i start needing them
03:48 schestowitz; if I got back to driving, i _might_ need glasses
03:48 schestowitz; long distance sight is weaker
03:49 DaemonFC; The "surgeon" (in the shopping mall!) bilks you out of $4,000, blinds you, and Social Security Disability says fuck off. Go get a job for a BLIND PERSON! JAN!
03:49 DaemonFC; That's how LASIK Eye Surgery works.
03:49 DaemonFC; All because glasses kind of suck a little bit.
03:49 schestowitz; no contact lenses?
03:49 schestowitz; these seem harmless
03:49 DaemonFC; She could have.
03:50 DaemonFC; LASIK isn't covered by vision insurance. It's considered cosmetic surgery.
03:50 schestowitz; laser has its places
03:50 schestowitz; not eyeballs
03:50 DaemonFC; Mandy's vision insurance has a 10% discount for LASIK.
03:50 schestowitz; too risky
03:50 schestowitz; risk/benefit analysis
03:50 DaemonFC; Mom was like 20/400 before LASIK.
03:50 DaemonFC; So legally blind.
03:50 DaemonFC; LASIK got her to 20/20.
03:51 DaemonFC; She went to a place in Indianapolis that had the best equipment and a good success rate.
03:51 DaemonFC; Jan went to the shopping mall with Dr. Zed. (Borderlands reference.)
03:51 bnchs; DaemonFC: wow that's amazing
03:51 *tessier (~treed@rmtrxethyurei.irc) has joined #techrights
03:51 bnchs; but also wtf, "cosmetic surgery"?
03:51 starstreak; everyone who disagrees with Roy is a troll, a bot or a microsoft employee
03:51 DaemonFC; Yeah, they call it cosmetic because not everyone needs LASIK.
03:52 DaemonFC; I'm typing and reading all of this and I'm not wearing my glasses right now.
03:52 DaemonFC; But I have prescription glasses.
03:52 DaemonFC; I wear them when I'm driving even though I don't legally have to.
03:52 DaemonFC; It makes it easier to read traffic signs and stuff.
03:53 DaemonFC; STATE OF ILL has a great habit of making street signs really small.
03:53 DaemonFC; Also, it makes it less fuzzy when I'm watching a movie or reading a book.
03:53 DaemonFC; But I'm hardly blind without them. But I might GO BLIND if I let Dr. Zed go to work on me at the MALL,.
03:54 DaemonFC; So, no LASIK. NOPE.
03:54 DaemonFC; "Now I'm not one of those what you might call 'real doctors'." -Dr. Zed
03:54 schestowitz; small signs, more sales of glasses
03:54 schestowitz; conspiracy!!
03:54 elusive_woman; rianne is on onlyfans

03:55 DaemonFC; Porn is a booming industry.
03:56 DaemonFC; There's pressure on people who are attractive enough to do it because trying to get a real job is difficult and going to school is too expensive.
03:56 TR News; Don't overlook the fact Saudi Arabia partly owns Twitter (and has for over a decade); it has moles inside the sniff out dissidents and it censors the platform for the entire planet https://www.techzim.co.zw/2023/07/when-govts-and-citizens-wage-twitter-wars-can-we-learn-anything-from-saudi-arabi/
03:57 TR Bot; When govts and citizens wage Twitter wars - can we learn anything from Saudi Arabia? - Techzim
03:57 DaemonFC; So they do piece work on porn sites for a bunch of perverts who are unemployed and getting real pissed off while they accumulate guns.
03:57 immibis; the economy is all fucked up. porn is just one instance of it
03:57 immibis; in this fucked up economy, i think if you can get easy money doing porn, and you're okay with it, that's a good idea
03:58 DaemonFC; There's a lot of disease flying around out there all of a sudden.
03:58 DaemonFC; This is the grossest generation ever, honestly.
03:58 TR News; You cannot advocate human rights in Twitter because the mere act of posting in Twitter is an affront to human rights.
03:58 bnchs; >can we learn anything from Saudi Arabia?
03:58 DaemonFC; Condoms and sex ed and public health funding was keeping a lid on the STDs for decades.
03:58 bnchs; yes, we can kill people for saying shit
03:59 DaemonFC; Then America decided that it wanted to be a disaster like South Africa.

03:59 DaemonFC; Sexually Transmitted Disease.
03:59 DaemonFC; It's not a disease! It's an infection!
03:59 schestowitz; ph
03:59 schestowitz; oh
04:00 schestowitz; they changed that too?
04:00 DaemonFC; Yes, all the public health literature that exists says STI for about 15 years or so.
04:00 bnchs; DaemonFC: that would conflict with STanDard LIBrary
04:00 schestowitz; renaming it will make it less harmful
04:00 DaemonFC; I still call them STDs.
04:00 MinceR; 19 045850 < bnchs> yes, we can kill people for saying shit
04:00 schestowitz; they make up many euphemisms
04:00 bnchs; the medical community's looking out for the programming community
04:00 MinceR; i thought this was common knowledge already
04:00 schestowitz; like for crazy people
04:00 schestowitz; you cannot call crazy people "crazy"
04:01 schestowitz; it might offend them
04:01 schestowitz; so people start talking in lies
04:01 schestowitz; and you end up recruting nazis
04:01 schestowitz; who stab colleague
04:01 schestowitz; in the workplace
04:01 schestowitz; "oops, sorry"
04:01 DaemonFC; My mechanic said "That's crazy!" when I told him something. I said, "That was a microaggression!.........Only kidding. It is crazy, isn't it?"
04:01 schestowitz; "it's our crazies hiring program"
04:02 DaemonFC; We want all sorts of nutbags and lunatics at Microsoft. It's our Nutbag and Lunatic Hiring Program!
04:02 DaemonFC; We won't stop until it's nuttier than a goddamn squirrel turd in here.
04:02 schestowitz; what's the euphemism for bling people?
04:02 immibis; why do you insist on being crazy and then complaining about craziness
04:02 DaemonFC; mjg59_: You should apply.
04:02 schestowitz; i'm sure there is one
04:02 DaemonFC; Help them out.
04:02 schestowitz; *blind
04:03 schestowitz; DaemonFC: msft can hire some nuts
04:03 schestowitz; then peopple get stabbed
04:03 schestowitz; then they say the local population is crazy
04:03 DaemonFC; They get the point.
04:03 schestowitz; and hire from aabroad
04:03 schestowitz; imports slaves
04:03 schestowitz; on chains that are not visible
04:03 schestowitz; like deportation
04:04 DaemonFC; schestowitz I think it's pretty funny that I reported a security vulnerability to Discover Bank today.
04:04 DaemonFC; I blogged about it so there's a written record on the Web of what it is and when I reported it to them.
04:04 schestowitz; i ssee
04:04 schestowitz; i think euphemisms for blindness are something-sighted
04:05 DaemonFC; schestowitz She is a mean person.
04:05 schestowitz; but blindness does not make you dangerous
04:05 schestowitz; unlike craziness
04:05 DaemonFC; She pretty much banned my dad from seeing me. Then she blinded herself.
04:05 DaemonFC; So she hasn't seen much of anything in the past 20 years.
04:05 DaemonFC; You can't tell me that the universe has no sense of irony.
04:05 schestowitz; "i can't see your family/ neigher should you"
04:06 schestowitz; so you just see his FB posts
04:06 schestowitz; (avoid FB)
04:06 DaemonFC; Like it went from "You're not allowed to see your son. Now hold my Auntie Anne's cream cheese pretzel while I go over here and OH GOD I'M BLIND! I'M BLIND!!!!!"

04:08 DaemonFC; schestowitz If anything, that was the cost of vanity.
04:08 starstreak; <schestowitz> "it's our crazies hiring program"
04:08 starstreak; so now autistic people are crazy
04:08 DaemonFC; She'll never see anything again, with or without glasses.
04:08 DaemonFC; It took away her ability to work.
04:08 DaemonFC; The government that she paid into for years told her to fuck off and die.
04:08 schestowitz; why pay then?
04:08 DaemonFC; And my dad is her meal ticket while she doesn't contribute anything.
04:09 schestowitz; if they never let you take the thing you thought you insured for?
04:09 schestowitz; insurance companies, pension firms...
04:09 schestowitz; they are good at hoarding money
04:09 schestowitz; and then at the end they howl for bailouts
04:09 DaemonFC; The first thing Social Security checks for is if you have enough work credits. If you don't they can tell you no and that's the end.
04:09 schestowitz; because the hoarding was not enough
04:09 DaemonFC; No appeals.
04:09 DaemonFC; She had enough work credits.
04:09 DaemonFC; So they said there was a sedentary job paying at least minimum wage "somewhere".
04:09 DaemonFC; For a blind woman.
04:10 schestowitz; the us has too many jobs
04:10 schestowitz; there are many sites
04:10 schestowitz; like proxima systems
04:10 schestowitz; they advertise jovbs that do not exist
04:10 schestowitz; sirius did that too
04:10 schestowitz; it's a sign that says,
04:10 DaemonFC; schestowitz We have too many jobs. There's even some for a blind woman with severe arthritis.
04:10 schestowitz; "we are doing well"
04:10 schestowitz; almost every company pretends to have vacancies
04:10 DaemonFC; Where they're just going to pay them to do something that a blind arthritic woman can do.
04:10 schestowitz; worse that can happen is
04:10 DaemonFC; According to Social Security.
04:10 schestowitz; people ask
04:10 schestowitz; you say "no, try later"
04:12 schestowitz; we have an appointment in 2 banks today
04:12 schestowitz; (no, not debt)
04:12 schestowitz; as you mention social security,
04:12 schestowitz; many people made false assumption
04:12 schestowitz; hob made false promises
04:13 schestowitz; and thus the economy is a bubble
04:13 schestowitz; buildings you see around you are just debt
04:13 schestowitz; they don't exist 'per se'
04:13 schestowitz; they are made using minuses
04:13 schestowitz; offset by some offshore bank accounts of robber barons
04:13 schestowitz; people who committed crimes, like EPO management, by speculating and gambling away people's pensions
04:13 schestowitz; yes, the EPO does this too
04:14 schestowitz; they call it "EPOTIF"
04:14 schestowitz; EPO staff is furious about it
04:14 DaemonFC; Yeah, this new landlord has his head in the clouds if he thinks he'll ever see a profit on this place.
04:14 schestowitz; the money set aside
04:14 schestowitz; for 50 years from now
04:14 schestowitz; it gets stolen
04:14 schestowitz; and they say,
04:14 immibis; DaemonFC do you have any idea about the economy? It only goes up, even when it should go down.
04:14 schestowitz; "don't worry, we'll invest if for you
04:14 schestowitz; "
04:14 DaemonFC; There's not a case where he profits within his life expectancy on this place.
04:14 schestowitz; and then all the money you are SURE you sey aside
04:14 schestowitz; BOOMm
04:14 schestowitz; GONE
04:14 DaemonFC; It's a dump.
04:14 schestowitz; and not your own fault
04:14 schestowitz; someone stole it
04:15 DaemonFC; He spent twice as much as it's worth and it also needs hundreds of thousands of dollars work.
04:15 immibis; the value of a dump isn't the dump, it's the space the dump occupies
04:15 schestowitz; immibis: article hours ago
04:15 schestowitz; in financial media
04:15 DaemonFC; immibisthe value of a dump isn't the dump, it's the space the dump occupies
04:15 schestowitz; said markets moved up
04:15 schestowitz; but revenues are dowqn
04:15 schestowitz; put 2 and 2 together
04:15 DaemonFC; He's rehabbing the unit across the hall.
04:15 schestowitz; the market go up... based on bad news?
04:15 DaemonFC; Watch the first person he rents it to tear it all up again.
04:15 schestowitz; something doesn't add up
04:15 schestowitz; Madoff
04:15 DaemonFC; Has dogs pissing on the carpet and chewing it up.
04:15 DaemonFC; Jumps out and bites someone.
04:15 schestowitz; "I need to borrow money from you?"
04:16 schestowitz; "but WHY"
04:16 schestowitz; "BECAUSE I AM RICH"
04:16 schestowitz; "don't worry"
04:16 schestowitz; "I will pay you back, I AM RICH"
04:16 schestowitz; (MARISOL)
04:16 DaemonFC; Being a landlord isn't a SURE THING.
04:16 DaemonFC; He's just moving someone else's money around and praying it works out.
04:16 DaemonFC; Or they'll take him to the cleaners and get his building.
04:16 schestowitz; it won';t
04:16 schestowitz; if it did
04:16 schestowitz; mark would not be broke
04:17 schestowitz; and FORCED to sell the place
04:17 schestowitz; this one he offloaded for a profit at least
04:17 schestowitz; but not out of choice
04:17 schestowitz; he found an idiot
04:17 schestowitz; could pay 1 million
04:17 schestowitz; not 2..3
04:17 schestowitz; in an economy like this
04:17 DaemonFC; Yeah, Mark would have eventually broken down and gone well south of $2 million for sure.
04:18 schestowitz; where even current tenants can lose their income/livelihood
04:18 schestowitz; and then get "stuck" in there till eviction paperwork
04:18 DaemonFC; It had already been on the market attracting zero interest for over 7 months.
04:18 DaemonFC; This guy had a hole burning in his pocket.
04:18 DaemonFC; Do you know how long it's taking to evict someone right now?
04:18 DaemonFC; A minimum of 3-4 months to get a court order then wait until the Sheriff gets to them.
04:19 DaemonFC; So once they stop paying figure you're stuck with them for half a year where they won't.
04:19 DaemonFC; If you have a tenant that never misses rent, don't fuck with them.

04:20 DaemonFC; Kent found that out.
04:20 DaemonFC; Now he loses mom and gains the guy upstairs that stopped paying him and lied about losing his job at the Taco Bell.
04:20 *eidolon has quit (Quit: )
04:20 DaemonFC; He told Kent the landlord that he lost his job at Taco Bell. Then mom went to order food at Taco Bell and it was him at the window handing it to her.
04:21 DaemonFC; Kent has tenants that stop paying him work for free to take it off what they owe him.
04:21 DaemonFC; So the Taco Bell guy was outside power washing the building the other day.
04:22 immibis; DaemonFC: stop talking and start doing
04:22 DaemonFC; There's really nothing wrong with that I guess. He does factor it in at like $12 an hour.
04:22 DaemonFC; That's what the local Walmart pays.
04:23 DaemonFC; I went over and stained a deck for him and cleaned up after some tenants that trashed a house and moved out.
04:23 DaemonFC; Back in 2007 I think.
04:24 DaemonFC; I moved into that house he owned in January that year.
04:24 DaemonFC; So it was probably around March or April.
04:24 elusive_woman; usually houses get trashed if the landlord is a slumlord
04:25 DaemonFC; He had me mow the lawn sometimes.
04:25 DaemonFC; He had his son that was always in trouble with the law "remodeling" houses and apartments.
04:26 DaemonFC; The guy was a real piece of work.
04:26 DaemonFC; He did "electrical work" by wrapping live wires in duct tape and tossing them back in the wall.
04:26 DaemonFC; He left roofing nails all over the alley way once.
04:26 DaemonFC; I had just bought new tires for my Ford Taurus at Walmart and they talked me into the lifetime road hazard plan.
04:27 starstreak; immibis, roy says autistic people are crazy
04:27 DaemonFC; They ended up having to replace 7 tires out of a set of 4 because of the shit that guy left around.
04:27 schestowitz; no, you are lying
04:27 schestowitz; get help
04:28 DaemonFC; With the way Walmart's "tire balancing" is going, I have to spend half my free time there now having them rebalance them.
04:28 DaemonFC; With their alleged tire weights.
04:28 DaemonFC; It got so bad I brought in strips of adhesive weights.
04:28 DaemonFC; I think they got it right finally, today.
04:29 DaemonFC; You super glue the damn things in there and they stay there unless you pry them off.
04:30 MinceR; starstreak: https://media.tenor.com/mZZoOtDcouoAAAAM/stop-it-get-some-help.gif
04:30 DaemonFC; I'm considering either buying new rims eventually or just moving the ones that are the hardest to properly balance to the rear axle permanently.
04:30 DaemonFC; They don't really have to be perfect back there because it's carrying less weight and not steering the car.

04:32 DaemonFC; It turns out Walmart will sell you adhesives but they use hammer-in weights that immediately get thrown off the car.

04:32 DaemonFC; They could get thrown off your car at any speed and angle.

07:07 TR News; In the case of Julian Assange, The Guardian (Bill Gates-bribed defamation mill) played a role in the arrest, i.e. the attack on all journalists around the world. The Guardian should be dismantled. It is still working for high-profile criminals under the guise of "left"...
07:08 TR News; The conclusion of the Huw Edwards saga is, people should avoid social control media. Don't read it, don't write to it. Let it rot and die.
07:08 DaemonFC; What makes these LLMs dangerous, really, is that they're not actually generating things. When the state or the company has an interest in having it lie to you in a certain way, then it will do that. I actually had Bing Chat do this to me in an interesting way the other day. I asked it if it could give me a torrent of a really obscure Japanese Sci-Fi movie I watched years ago and liked, and...
07:08 DaemonFC; ...it's really old. It's like 33 years old. Not terribly profitable anywhere, even in Japan. And it's not even for sale in America, and it said theft of intellectual property was unethical and it wouldn't help me.......and then it gave a citation link that contained the torrent I asked for.
07:08 DaemonFC; schestowitz ^
07:09 schestowitz; Microsoft: use our wares for the torrents
07:09 schestowitz; and we'll report you

07:26 DaemonFC; schestowitz Worth pointing out......Joseph Cantrell AND three other Microsoft employees didn't know how to do their job at Azure, and had to go to Stack Exchange undercover and ask questions there.
07:26 DaemonFC; That was in his drug diary.
07:26 rylcol; I have the same issues socializing online if the conversation is identified as possibly dangerous for real life.
07:27 DaemonFC; It seems they paid him to sit around and talk about the puss coming out of his dick from the prostitute and how much they should deport Indians in front of all of his co-workers at Microsoft, leading up to the stabbing.
07:27 DaemonFC; Also in the diary.
07:27 rylcol; Also can't feel good because I used to think of computers as a mean to escape reality.
07:28 DaemonFC; He was scaring people around him and got a coaching by one of his Microsoft managers, but not fired.
07:28 DaemonFC; This would have been instant termination at Walmart.
07:28 DaemonFC; Can't/doesn't do the job. Talks about his venereal diseases in meetings. Makes racist comments in the breakroom. Lots of drugs. STAB STAB.
07:29 DaemonFC; I mean, they would have gotten rid of him before the stabbing.
07:30 DaemonFC; mjg59_: "Microsoft is sadly doing fine." Oh yes, this paints the picture of a healthy company that is well managed.
07:30 DaemonFC; Doesn't it?

07:31 DaemonFC; The local news says "Microsoft employee stabbed by stranger."
07:31 DaemonFC; Stranger? They both worked there.
07:32 DaemonFC; Microsoft has a hiring program that is looking for people like Cantrell.

07:32 DaemonFC; Cantrell himself even named it. In the drug diary. He said he was hired by their Neurodivergent Hiring Program.
07:33 DaemonFC; A lot of people eventually get the clap. Usually while they're young.
07:33 DaemonFC; Then if they're smart they just use condoms.
07:33 DaemonFC; Like, most people need to be knocked down a couple pegs.
07:34 DaemonFC; And eventually most people are.
07:34 DaemonFC; Like, when I was a teenager you just went to the doctor and swallowed a few pills and you didn't have it anymore.
07:34 DaemonFC; It wasn't some drug resistant monster back then.
07:35 DaemonFC; We're entering a post-antibiotic world where you have to be very careful what you do.
07:35 DaemonFC; But the 90s and 2000s were not like this.
07:35 DaemonFC; So there was more room to let your guard down a little.
07:35 DaemonFC; Now there's not.
07:36 DaemonFC; I mean, even the microbes evolve and make the future terrible.
07:36 DaemonFC; It's not bad enough we're in a debt-addled country without any jobs.
07:36 DaemonFC; Now a guy can't even go and get the clap anymore and go pssshaw that little thing?
07:36 DaemonFC; Meet my friend, CIPRO.
07:36 DaemonFC; Buh bye!
07:36 DaemonFC; Like, I don't want to be in the future (now) for so many reasons.
07:37 schestowitz; Cantrell will never work again
07:37 schestowitz; maybe he will even kill himself after he does time
07:37 schestowitz; Cantrell won't be remembered by MSFT
07:38 DaemonFC; He was close to killing himself before Microsoft hired him.
07:38 schestowitz; oh
07:38 DaemonFC; Hundreds of other companies said no.
07:38 schestowitz; in the diary too?
07:38 DaemonFC; He was out of food.

07:40 DaemonFC; Almost everyone pleads not guilty in arraignment court.
07:41 DaemonFC; The only people who plead guilty in arraignment court are idiots and horrible people that are feeling so guilty that they know they should be punished severely.
07:44 DaemonFC; You plead not guilty, demand a trial, and wait for an offer from the prosecutor.
07:44 DaemonFC; Nearly everyone gets an offer because they want rid of it fast and cheap.
07:45 DaemonFC; But you're right about Cantrell. Because there's all this evidence, the offer will be severe.
07:45 DaemonFC; Not as bad as pleading guilty at an arraignment court or being found guilty at trial, but bad. (For him.)
07:46 DaemonFC; He'll probably get like at least 10-15 years in prison before he's paroled.
07:46 DaemonFC; If he's smart he'll take it because they'll give him 20-25 if they have to go to trial.
07:47 DaemonFC; When he is paroled, they'll probably send him to a halfway house, and give him a list of demands, including drug monitoring.
07:47 DaemonFC; They'll help him find a job and keeping the job will be a condition of parole.
07:47 DaemonFC; It probably won't be Microsoft.
07:47 DaemonFC; It might be a Burger King.
07:47 DaemonFC; I mean, he's going to have a bad life.
07:48 DaemonFC; They're never going to stop keeping track of him.
07:48 DaemonFC; He'll always be a convicted felon.
07:48 elusive_woman; what makes him a nazi?

21:29 DaemonFC; Why would there be molten steel where the dumpster was?
21:29 DaemonFC; Did superman come by and melt it with his laser eyes?
21:31 DaemonFC; I was never really much of a Superman fan anyway. Like, aside from Kryptonite not a lot really stops him.
21:31 DaemonFC; He's completely overpowered.
21:31 DaemonFC; And they had a lot of weird stuff along the way like a reverse Kryptonite that made him stronger again.
21:32 DaemonFC; "Kryptonite radiation can emit through any element except lead. Thus, Superman has a special lead suit to protect himself from the radiation."
21:32 DaemonFC; Oh wow, lead suit.
21:33 DaemonFC; So like, why does Superman keep getting foiled by Kryptonite when he's Superman and the weight of a lead suit isn't that much for him?
21:33 DaemonFC; Like, just fly around in a lead-lined suit just in case and you know maybe kill Lex Luthor instead of handing him to the police.
21:33 DaemonFC; He is Kevin Spacey anyway (sometimes) so he deserves it because me too.
21:34 DaemonFC; It's pretty clear that Lex Luthor (especially when he's Kevin Spacey) can't be allowed to keep getting away with it/
21:34 DaemonFC; And after the UK convicts him he'll just break out of prison again and go after Superman.
21:34 DaemonFC; (And Anthony Rapp.)

21:45 DaemonFC; "He raped me!"
21:46 DaemonFC; *Stood in a doorway and hit on me is rape.*
21:46 DaemonFC; Anthony RAPPE
21:47 immibis; in my google takeout is a youtube video with a randomly generated title that I do remember creating, and the video content is a demo of some software stuff that I vaguely remember doing, but the username is cyril (somebody I've never known) and it's running in osx (which I've never had on my computer)
21:47 DaemonFC; The very worst that Spacey committed in that incident, according to Rapp's own statements, would be indecent solicitation of a minor, which is a crime, but it's not rape.
21:47 DaemonFC; At that point it may have not existed, and if it did was probably a misdemeanor.
21:48 immibis; must've been a university group project
21:50 DaemonFC; Under Illinois law (which is not where they were) and current revision of the ILCS, Spacey would have committed a Class 3 Felony with 1-3 years of imprisonment. This would have also led to at least 5 years on the sex offender list when he was released from prison.
21:50 DaemonFC; But this was almost 25 years ago I think, and in California.
21:50 DaemonFC; But realistically even now, in Illinois, Spacey would have taken a plea deal.
21:51 DaemonFC; He's rich and can afford a lot of good lawyers, and he can show up and carry himself well in a courtroom.
21:52 DaemonFC; The prosecutor would probably agree to come down to Criminal Sexual Abuse as a Class A Misdemeanor.
21:53 DaemonFC; They pretty much keep it on the books so rich white people with good lawyers who can behave themselves in court have something to plead down to when they're charged with a felony.

21:56 DaemonFC; A lot of the near-universal conviction rate in the US are plea deals and the fact that it largely victimizes non-whites who get the public pretender and go "Oh fuck."
21:57 DaemonFC; It's not like the court system could prove half the shit it brings in there. It just goes after people of low status that the state crippled with a bad education and no job and then gives them a shitty lawyer who will fall asleep during the hearing.
21:58 AdmFubar; dumpster file.. very hot one..

22:04 DaemonFC; That's what that felt like.
22:12 immibis; thanks to google takeout I find out google has been uploading photos and bookmarks from my phone without my knowledge

22:42 DaemonFC; "Since I believe the public has a right to know about security issues that software vendors and Web sites have not fixed, and some vendors just sit on them forever and figure it's not a problem as long as it's not widely known, I have already publicly disclosed this problem on my blog as additional incentive for an investigation and proper and timely fix."

22:46 DaemonFC; I think that people who find security vulnerabilities should just publicly release them immediately and then tap the vendor/website on the shoulder and go "You might want to fix that." Especially when dealing with Microsoft or Apple.
22:46 DaemonFC; Microsoft has a long record of leaving critical CVEs unfixed that were privately reported to them months or years ago.
22:47 DaemonFC; Then only fixing them when there's malware on the Web that's already wreaking havoc.

23:00 mjg59_; The Project Zero approach of "Here is a report, here is the disclosure date, we will not negotiate" is an acceptable compromise
23:01 immibis; it's only fine because it's the industry norm now thanks to big players like google
23:01 mjg59_; I've missed out on bug bounties because the vendor insisted on being able to block disclosure
23:01 immibis; otherwise it would still get you aaron swartzed if you disclosed after 90 days - or 365 days - or 99999 days
23:01 mjg59_; Not just that, the US codified that certain types of DMCA violations were fine for security research
23:02 mjg59_; Otherwise it was an easy mechanism for vendors to fuck with people
23:02 DaemonFC; Bug bounties are normally very small compared with just selling them to malware authors.
23:02 mjg59_; Reverse engineering our code? You must have violated an effective technical control
23:02 DaemonFC; Like 1-2% of what you could make selling them to the bad guys.
23:02 DaemonFC; They're a PR stunt.
23:03 mjg59_; That's wildly inaccurate
23:03 DaemonFC; It's like the government saying "We lost a nuclear weapon and we'll give you $2,000 if you bring it back to us." Meanwhile, some terror group would slip you $20 million dollars.
23:03 DaemonFC; You know, so that's a bug bounty program.
23:03 mjg59_; The black market value is hugely overstated - a lot of the people who collect these things have sufficient in-house expertise now that buying them on the market isn't necessary
23:04 mjg59_; And the payouts from the places that actually matter (like the browser vendors) has increased enough that sure you /might/ make more money on the black market but it's going to be such a pain in the ass why bother
23:04 DaemonFC; I've found very few that I would call critical, but I have found some and I've never asked for a CVE.
23:04 DaemonFC; And I've always reported them without censoring the bug report.
23:05 DaemonFC; Helping someone hide their shit is pretty low.
23:06 DaemonFC; I didn't report the bugs that could cause memory corruption and run arbitrary code outside the browser sandbox to help Apple.
23:06 MinceR; 20 000240 < DaemonFC> Bug bounties are normally very small compared with just selling them to malware authors.
23:06 MinceR; what if the bug is _in_ malware, though
23:06 MinceR; like windows or systemd
23:06 DaemonFC; I did it because I know what China has done to target Webkit.
23:06 immibis; mjg59_: the reality is if they don't like you you broke the law, and if they do like you they turn a blind eye
23:06 DaemonFC; And they don't hurt Apple. They hurt Chinese people with it.
23:07 immibis; it's all power. laws don't matter
23:07 DaemonFC; And people who report on the regime.
23:07 MinceR; or in the intel management engine
23:07 DaemonFC; Well, obviously you can't fix everything.
23:07 DaemonFC; You can't find everything.
23:08 DaemonFC; Look at the CVE list on every release of Chrome.
23:08 DaemonFC; It doesn't average out to be SMALLER now than it was 5 years ago.
23:08 DaemonFC; If they were making more progress than they were backsliding then the list would be getting shorter.
23:08 immibis; how's the CVE list on Lagrange?
23:08 immibis; probably very small
23:08 DaemonFC; But they dump a lot of shitty new code in there to do something awful to the user.
23:08 DaemonFC; Like FLoC.
23:08 immibis; keep in mind that more things get CVEs, though. They could be very theoretical vulnerabilities.
23:09 DaemonFC; And then that new code is untested and has more holes.
23:09 immibis; they're pushing a thing where sites can cryptographically verify that you're using an unmodified browser on an unmodified phone, and then the website can refuse to show you the page if you're not
23:10 MinceR; remote attestation is back?
23:11 immibis; google is trying to make it
23:11 immibis; then you sue them for anti-trust or something
23:12 DaemonFC; Everyone laughs when they see me using one of those fat bicycle tire pumps to air up my car tires.
23:12 DaemonFC; I have never had one with a motor that lasted very long.
23:12 DaemonFC; Finally I got tired of buying them.
23:13 immibis; I thought people usually refilled their tyres at the petrol station. Many of the ones in NZ have free or cheap pressurized air
23:14 MinceR; i see gulag really revised their motto
23:14 MinceR; it used to be "Don't be evil", now it's just "Be evil"
23:15 immibis; that happened a very long time ago
23:17 MinceR; in a galaxy very close

23:20 DaemonFC; My dad is still on about "They should round up people with AIDS and send them to camps."
23:21 DaemonFC; I usually say, "Nothing bad ever started with 'Let's build camps and put people in them.'".
23:22 DaemonFC; mjg59_ lives in a city that had Japanese-Americans rounded up and sent to camps so that White people could steal their homes and businesses while they were "detained".
23:22 DaemonFC; Maybe even in one of their houses?
23:22 DaemonFC; That's how war criminals do things. They do it and then they don't teach that it happened so that ignorant hipsters don't know and don't care.
23:23 DaemonFC; mjg59_ is part of an alien invasion of urban gentrification.
23:23 immibis; DaemonFC you think that about transgender people
23:23 DaemonFC; They either hose or haul off the inconvenient poor people and take their shit away.
23:24 immibis; you think they should round up transgender people and send them to camps..
23:24 DaemonFC; Then they say they're a Social Justice Warrior on a company that spreads child porn and employed Peter Bright.
23:24 DaemonFC; While mjg59_ sips on his latte professing that he feels offended for you, he sits on a pile of bones.
23:25 DaemonFC; immibisDaemonFC you think that about transgender people
23:25 DaemonFC; I definitely acknowledge that my country has committed horrific war crimes, some of them while I was in my 20s (so quite recently), and nobody has been punished for them.
23:26 DaemonFC; It's all about staggering them out so it never equals the Nazis at any given time, you know.
23:26 DaemonFC; Over 40 or 50 years it does, but by then who cares?
23:27 MinceR; lol
23:27 DaemonFC; So since the 1800s, what the US has done as wartime measures, inclusive, or as reneging on Indian Treaties, has equaled Hitler and the Nazis about 6 times over.
23:27 DaemonFC; But it was never in the span of 5 years, so it doesn't matter.
23:27 DaemonFC; You just don't tell anyone it happened and they forget, usually within a generation, sometimes sooner.
23:29 DaemonFC; There were more bombs dropped on Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia in terms of TNT equivalent, than all of WWII, including the atomic bombs dropped on Japan.
23:29 DaemonFC; That's a lot of bombs.
23:29 DaemonFC; It's a lot of people who were killed that had nothing to do with any war.
23:30 DaemonFC; The United States says it recognizes the laws of war but in reality it doesn't. It just does whatever it wants and gaslights about "laws".
23:30 DaemonFC; Then it lets mjg59_ in to work for it.
23:30 DaemonFC; The US makes up "reasons" why the "laws" don't apply.
23:31 DaemonFC; They're not Prisoners of War, oh no. They're "enemy combatants" and we captured them. Totally not the same thing.
23:31 DaemonFC; "Cluster bombs? Oh, we never signed that treaty."
23:31 DaemonFC; "We were in bed with the flu while all of civilization signed it."
23:32 DaemonFC; They're giving Ukraine cluster bombs now.
23:32 DaemonFC; Ukraine signed the treaty saying they banned them.
23:32 DaemonFC; See how laws work when it's a government?
23:33 DaemonFC; Ukraine is disregarding the treaty that it signed because it's no longer convenient.
23:33 DaemonFC; The US is givint it cluster bombs that it knows will litter the place with unexploded bombs to clear out the old stuff so it can stockpile new stuff.
23:33 DaemonFC; Those things will be going off killing children 70 years from now.

23:47 XRevan86; Same issue here, they're not illegal. Also not sure how sending stockpiles of ammo is supposed to enrich anyone.

23:50 XRevan86; And I'm going to re-iterate: if the cluster munitions will be used on the frontline, they cannot make the situation worse simply because it is already mined beyond belief.
23:52 MinceR; they're also used by the orcs
23:53 starstreak; so Roy is pro-russia now?
23:55 XRevan86; starstreak: Well, no, he is not, but he does boost pro-Russian narratives when they look plausible to him.

23:57 starstreak; now he runs ubuntu
