00:07 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], 5.8% rent hike in the end. That surprised me. He's listing identical units at 23% more.
00:08 schestowitz[TR]; still a lot
00:09 DaemonFC; Yes, but Biden, man.
00:09 DaemonFC; I guess there's no way to move.
00:09 schestowitz[TR]; move where?
00:09 DaemonFC; Even if we wanted to, the next cheapest option I've seen listed is hundreds more.
00:09 DaemonFC; Well, within Waukegan of course.

01:14 immibis_; DaemonFC: welcome to capitalism! work harder, slave.
01:16 MinceR; silence, mind-slave!
01:17 DaemonFC; I'm watching Star Trek: DS9. I think they tried to pin a bunch of Russian attributes to the Cardassians in retrospect.
01:17 schestowitz[TR]; slave derived from "slav"
01:17 DaemonFC; The most Russian-like one is how horribly they built Terok Nor (DS9) itself.
01:18 DaemonFC; The computer is happy that everything is within "ideal" parameters because the Cardassian specifications allow for up to a 21% loss of efficiency before it's "unacceptable".
01:18 XRevan86; DaemonFC: The only thing I've read as Russian from the Cardassians was their law system.
01:18 DaemonFC; Of course, based on the Russian military equipment (have to fire 300 missiles to have 1 hit) the reality is the Russian stuff is even worse than that.
01:19 DaemonFC; The US has either always hit what it was targeting or has successfully aborted the missile.
01:19 DaemonFC; Even when we blew up the Chinese embassy that one time.
01:19 DaemonFC; B-)
01:19 MinceR; Keeping Up With the Cardassians

01:20 XRevan86; DaemonFC: The Russian army accept 100% loss of efficiency, so what's the correlation?
01:20 DaemonFC; The statement that the missile went off course was obviously a cover story. The Chinese embassy in Belgrade was relaying intelligence to the other side in the war.
01:21 MinceR; perhaps the russian military used to be better
01:21 DaemonFC; So we blew it up and then "settled" with them for not a lot of money and a sort of sorry/not sorry.
01:21 MinceR; or the star trek authors thought it wasn't as bad as it was
01:21 MinceR; or they thought nobody would believe it or take it seriously
01:21 XRevan86; MinceR: Hard to say, besides, the farther back in time the more understandable the lack of accuracy.
01:21 DaemonFC; "Whoops, well, it *is* a war and these things happen."
01:21 DaemonFC; "How's $3 million sound?"
01:22 DaemonFC; :D
01:22 DaemonFC; Even Putin isn't crazy enough to try something like THAT.
01:23 DaemonFC; He knows that we of course would have the, reaction, of handing Ukraine those longer range HIMARS they've wanted and they'd be down, oh.....several military outposts and a $4 billion dollar bridge to Crimea shortly.
01:24 *Noisytoot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
01:24 DaemonFC; The threat of using nuclear weapons is a bluff.
01:24 DaemonFC; The United States had that option, of course, in the Vietnam War.
01:24 XRevan86; DaemonFC: The cost of the bridge is mostly corruption, so the costlier the better.
01:24 MinceR; DaemonFC: how do you know it's a bluff?
01:25 DaemonFC; We could have destroyed the seat of government in North Vietnam and watched the Communist regime collapse if we were willing to kill hundreds of thousands of people to do that.
01:25 MinceR; remember, a crazy fundie made that threat
01:25 XRevan86; MinceR: He's not a fundie.
01:25 MinceR; afaik in the time of the vietnam war, both the usa and the ussr had saner leadership than today

01:25 MinceR; XRevan86: how do you know?
01:26 DaemonFC; After 20 years of the war not going well, nuking Ho Chi Minh city wouldn't have been such a crazy option.
01:26 XRevan86; MinceR: Because he's always been hypocritical about use of the church as a tool.
01:26 DaemonFC; If the government will never surrender, then the threat of there being nobody to formally surrender isn't really a threat.

01:27 XRevan86; MinceR: A fundie of a personal religion?
01:27 DaemonFC; Like that time Trump had the National Park Police tear gas the protesters so he could walk across the street and pose for a picture of himself with an upside down bible outside of a church he'd never been inside of?
01:27 XRevan86; MinceR: What is fundamental about that?
01:27 DaemonFC; No, can't say anything like that's ever happened in America. :)
01:28 MinceR; XRevan86: a fundie of the russian orthodox church, who happens to have his private ideas of what that actually means
01:28 DaemonFC; This is pretty much what it's reduced to. Christians in America are so mean and nasty that they don't care whether Trump actually believes in anything.
01:29 DaemonFC; He tear gassed a bunch of black protesters to say "Hey, I'm one of you. Look what I just did!".
01:29 DaemonFC; And it works.
01:29 MinceR; XRevan86: is people making a huge fuss about being christian and oh-so-holy demonstrating behavior that is strongly conflicting with views generally seen as "christian" new to you? :>
01:30 XRevan86; MinceR: They're not fundies though.
01:30 MinceR; sure they are
01:30 MinceR; they bring their religion into the state and use the state to force it on people who don't want it
01:30 DaemonFC; The Vietnam War would have gone down a lot differently had the US had the capacity for things like drone and cruise missile strikes that it has today.
01:30 MinceR; also to steal from the people and hand some of that money to their favored cult[s]
01:31 DaemonFC; You'd basically have to deploy a nuclear weapon to hit their capital with the tech being what it was back then.
01:31 MinceR; and also to hand some publicly owned properties off to favored cult[s]
01:31 DaemonFC; Today, you'd just selectively target all their government buildings and the power grid and stuff.
01:31 DaemonFC; Throw them into such disarray that they'd be softened up well ahead of an occupation.
01:32 XRevan86; MinceR: Doesn't that just mean being religious?
01:33 XRevan86; not even that much by the Usonian standards
01:33 DaemonFC; The US is mainly depleting stock of "dumb" weapons. The short range HIMARS are the most dangerous thing we've given to the Ukrainians.
01:33 DaemonFC; The Russians can barely cope with things that are far from our best stuff.
01:34 XRevan86; DaemonFC: Just call it GMLRS
01:34 XRevan86; They're not even that short-range.
01:34 DaemonFC; Only like 47 miles.
01:34 MinceR; XRevan86: no
01:34 MinceR; it's possible for a politician to be religious and not make a big show out of it, and respecting the separation of church and state in office
01:35 MinceR; it just isn't popular
01:35 MinceR; basically because humans are idiots
01:35 DaemonFC; I wonder if there's a way the Ukrainians could field-modify those things to add a little range.
01:35 XRevan86; DaemonFC: They can go as far as 90km allegedly.
01:35 DaemonFC; Even another mile would open up more options in some cases.
01:36 *MinceR accidentally calls it GMPLS
01:39 XRevan86; DaemonFC: Anyway, that's not bad, on a par with Uragan.
01:39 XRevan86; DaemonFC: And Ukraine can shoot much farther if really want to already: with Excalibur.
01:47 XRevan86; Ah, no, Excalibur has almost the same range, it's long-range only for its class.
01:48 XRevan86; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-360_Neptune However, this thing is "Up to 280km".

01:51 TR Bot; According to EPO Data, Women Have No Place at the EPO (Unless They Fancy Being Underpaid) | Techrights
01:56 XRevan86; I thought there was something else pretty darn long-range, but maybe I'm misremembering.
01:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 20.41 k/sec., IPFS upstream 65.90 average k/sec., average swarm size 135.61
02:01 XRevan86; DaemonFC: No matter, I'd call it mid-range. ATACMS is long-range but that also comes at a cost: it's not really an MLRS missile even though it's launched from an MLRS.
02:05 DaemonFC; https://scontent-ams4-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/308520487_159556406687978_1162909914111314012_n.jpg?_nc_cat=1&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=8bfeb9&_nc_ohc=yp_RKHK6QP4AX9Y5t70&_nc_ht=scontent-ams4-1.xx&oh=00_AT_CUz5PK-bVyE4Xoq_KWwl4aAGZjBYWfyT-C-vlK0DvNA&oe=633350DA
02:05 XRevan86; Just because MLRS is a *multiple*-launch rocket system, while ATACMS is such a beefy boy a HIMARS can only launch one, and M270 can launch two.
02:06 DaemonFC; You may only need one if you aim it at the right thing.
02:06 MinceR; :>
02:07 XRevan86; DaemonFC: There is a caveat: one rocket is easier to shoot down.
02:08 XRevan86; GMLRS is very effective against Russian air defence because it can't shoot all of them down.
02:08 XRevan86; GMLRS is not fully immune against it, air defence does shoot them down, just not enough.
02:09 XRevan86; But if an ATACMS manages to reach a target, then that would be big news and discussed everywhere, that's for sure.
02:16 XRevan86; My layman understanding is that for Ukraine on practice it would be bigger news if the US allows use of GMLRS on Russian sovereign territory than delivery of ATACMS.
02:17 DaemonFC; MinceR, Taco Bell is going to do "Beyond Steak".
02:17 DaemonFC; Now that Beyond's shares are worth 10 cents for every dollar they were last year.
02:18 MinceR; i don't see the need to go Beyond Steak
02:18 MinceR; steak is fine
02:18 DaemonFC; That's what I said.
02:18 DaemonFC; Maybe Dr. Strange Love, mjg59_, can tell us how it is.
02:19 DaemonFC; While he's careful not to violate the Verbal Morality Statute.

03:35 MinceR; with an 8x8 font, you could have a 240x135 character console on framebuffer
03:35 MinceR; and divide it up with tmux
03:35 schestowitz[TR]; then you need font hinting
03:35 DaemonFC; MidnightBSD maybe?
03:35 schestowitz[TR]; otherwise it won't be readable at finer res
03:35 highest_cubist_thrills; in some instances perhaps. be wary of assuming other experiences match your own
03:35 MinceR; i don't think you can have hinting on that console
03:35 MinceR; as it uses aliased bitmap fonts
03:35 DaemonFC; Or GhostBSD.
03:35 schestowitz[TR]; so might as well startx
03:36 schestowitz[TR]; open terminal
03:36 schestowitz[TR]; run tmux
03:36 MinceR; oh, forgot to mention that i assumed a fullhd display
03:36 MinceR; yeah, i just use x
03:36 MinceR; btw
03:36 schestowitz[TR]; it's not so heavy
03:36 MinceR; and have antialiased fonts with slight hinting
03:36 schestowitz[TR]; can use openbox

03:49 schestowitz[TR]; we seem to have run out of ideas lately
03:49 schestowitz[TR]; or short of good topics, unexplored
03:50 schestowitz[TR]; social media is dying
03:50 schestowitz[TR]; but in relation to "FOSS" or "federated" or "decentralised" alts it feels like kicking a man while it's down

03:53 highest_cubist_thrills; as a tech blogger, youll think of something. you always do.
03:54 schestowitz[TR]; yeah,m but not enough
03:54 schestowitz[TR]; not 10 ideas per day
03:54 highest_cubist_thrills; the reason youre out of ideas is that the movement is dead
03:54 highest_cubist_thrills; <schestowitz[TR]> not 10 ideas per day <- youre the one who thinks its a workout
03:54 highest_cubist_thrills; id write about something if i had something to write about.

04:25 DaemonFC; Fedora no doubt captures some of the people fleeing Ubuntu.
04:26 DaemonFC; More an more, Ubuntu is just an echo chamber of Microsoft trolls.
04:26 DaemonFC; It's their new openSUSE (Novell-era) _and_ Linspire.
04:27 DaemonFC; Microsoft killed Linspire off inside of two years.
04:27 DaemonFC; Less than two years after they inked the deal for the "Interop Vendor Alliance", they were toast.
04:27 DaemonFC; Fired everyone. No more distribution, no more "community".

11:28 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], I was commenting on the prosecutor's status on Facebook about "gun violence".
11:29 DaemonFC; "The Democrats and Republicans agree on all of the very worst things, and one of those things you guys are both completely 100% full of boloney on is trying to pin violence on "the mentally ill" as a whole, video games, people playing records backwards, and other nonsense.
11:29 DaemonFC; What would reduce violence is if the Democrats would create jobs that lifted people out of poverty instead of illegal lockdown orders from Democrat Hitler, JB Pritzker. These put 25 million people out of work. And of course, only the Democrats could say we've regained half as many jobs as they cost us and those are new jobs, and the best years of job creation ever.
11:29 DaemonFC; Poverty is linked to suicide, violent crime, and drug abuse. Making it about guns or the mentally ill is a red herring from the 1.5 party system.
11:29 DaemonFC; If you've ever wondered why no matter what the Democrats have done lately, violent crime in Chicago is worse than at any point since the 1980s, it's because criminals didn't obey the FOID law then and they don't obey it now. It doesn't matter how many amendments the idiot and criminal politicians in Springfield pass, and you see that. All you have to look at is the shootings and murders going up every year despite gun law crackdowns.
11:29 DaemonFC; When the Democrats have the cops going over your social media to see if you're a Republican during the FOID Card process, the gang crime in Chicago will still continue unabated.
11:29 DaemonFC; About the only thing changing the law does is change how lawyers bicker in some courtroom months or years after a criminal has already done whatever it is they've done, and that's it. That's all it does."

12:04 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], With the way things are going, the landlord did us a favor.
12:04 DaemonFC; He could have done so much worse and gotten away with it.
12:05 DaemonFC; In this market, where else re you going to go? Nobody else in town is renting them for this price. Maybe the absolute best you'll find if you're lucky is 10% higher than the new rent, and those are going so fast now that they barely need to advertise. Mom's landlord doesn't even clean them when someone moves out anymore.
12:05 DaemonFC; He just offers the new tenants $100 off their rent the first month to clean out the shit the last people left behind.

20:14 frog; i am worried about dev-vcs/git itself now, for the following reason: to compile it _without_ gnu-buildsystem dependencies (autoconf/automake) involved
20:15 frog; with GNU, it's not the GPL i am concerned with, it is the dependency graphs of their software, and quality
20:18 frog; the entire bootstrapping of GNU itself is problematic too, since their toolchain inject an excessive dependency graph, rather early during bootstrapping/toolchain-builds
20:19 frog; and there seems to be a political twist involved, to bootsrap/compile any GNU system _without_ their excessive dependency graph

20:20 frog; and since when i consider GNU-toolchain with their transition to c++ wrecked, they can't salvage their own GNU software without the wreckage anymore either
20:21 frog; which is, a most epic knee-jerk ever, of the free software "community"
20:21 frog; because, it is necessary, to fully detangle GNU-toolchain and GNU-buildsystem, to salvage a free-software system
20:22 frog; cannot conclude yet finally, if at least dev-vcs/git remains then, regardless of where free software is hosted, such as github
20:23 frog; and without a clean git implementation (including it's build-system and toolchain required), any discussion where git repositories are hosted is, futile
20:24 frog; OpenBSD project didn't transition to git as their main repository, they retained CVS!
20:24 frog; with them, their decision to migrate from GNU-toolchain to LLVM-toolchain however, didn't accomplish that much, with regards to software freedom

20:26 starstreak; waiting for gnome 43
20:26 frog; with my planned Paradise Linux distribution, i am not certain, if at least git is available and/or desireable
20:26 starstreak; frog, are you forking redhat 5.2?
20:27 frog; starstreak: no, i am working on a latest gentoo-portage branch, with some crucial GNU-toolchain components rolled-back to year 2013
20:28 frog; however, that's insufficient, to succeed with free software salvage
20:28 frog; starstreak: why redhat 5.2 in particular? redhat and their RPM had always been a headache for me.
20:28 starstreak; frog, because it has the old 2.0.x kernel
20:29 starstreak; and fvwm95
20:29 frog; well, those old kernel versions have some advantage, one criteria being their far lower LoC
20:29 frog; yet, i would try linux 2.4 instead, because that one got USB and SMP at least
20:29 starstreak; ahhh
20:30 starstreak; have you ever considered haiku os?
20:30 frog; starstreak: fvwm wasn't that much worse or better than any modern GNOME desktop
20:30 starstreak; fvwm uses almost no ram
20:30 frog; starstreak: no, haiku os is implemented in c++; which is ok, of cause, yet it doesn't meet some basic acceptance criteria of mine
20:30 starstreak; gnome 3.x seems to use about 2GB
20:31 frog; do not confuse the widget toolkits with the window manager
20:31 frog; gnome, bundles both, the GTK widget toolkit and a window manager
20:31 frog; fvwm is a window manager
20:31 starstreak; still
20:32 frog; and GNOME GTK widget toolkit, had _always_ been very problematic, mainly due to their (imo flawed) unicode implementation
20:32 starstreak; fvwm isnt using gigabytes of memory
20:32 frog; starstreak: you can use fvwm nowadays still, and as soon as GTK widgets are involved, it's a shitload of RAM wasted for thas
20:32 frog; this
20:32 starstreak; hmmm
20:32 starstreak; fair enough
20:33 starstreak; i dont think gtk uses gigabytes of ram tho
20:33 frog; i mean, it's ok, it's just not anything i want nor need
20:33 starstreak; gtk probably uses hundreds of megabytes of ram, not gigabytes
20:33 frog; anyway, GNOME/GTK of fvwm, that's far less problematic than the GNU-buildsystem and GNU-toolchain issues
20:33 frog; because, GNOME/GTK whatever can be removed/replaced, easily
20:33 starstreak; mincer would be an expert on fvwm's ram usage
20:33 MinceR; what does fvwm have to do with GTK?
20:34 frog; without GNU-buildsystem and GNU-toolchain there is that much "free software" remaining then: NOTHING
20:34 frog; and both GNU-buildsystem and GNU-toolchain, my opinion, were wrecked in recent decades
20:34 starstreak; MinceR, frog is saying that fvwm is as bloated as any desktop
20:35 starstreak; for example, using fvwm and loading a gtk app, it would use as much ram as gnome
20:35 starstreak; i dont think thats true
20:35 frog; MinceR: any typical GUI application spawned within fvwm, often, not always, often requires a widget toolkit, which is GTK often
20:35 frog; and GTK, is, a problem, best solved by removing it
20:36 cubexyz; I remember one person in here not running X11 at all
20:36 cubexyz; just text
20:36 frog; yaft+dvtm is my dmux desktop environment setup, yes
20:37 cubexyz; the problem is which bank would support text only browser
20:37 frog; yes, online banking, online job portals, government web sites... all of it is rubbish
20:37 *web0 has quit (Quit: Connection closed)
20:40 cubexyz; even router configuration could be problematic
20:40 frog; yes, and, reminder, lynx is THE w3c compliant web-browser

20:43 MinceR; 24 213515 < starstreak> i dont think thats true
20:43 MinceR; neither do i
20:43 MinceR; 24 213515 < frog> MinceR: any typical GUI application spawned within fvwm, often, not always, often requires a widget toolkit, which is GTK often
20:43 MinceR; and what does this have to do with fvwm?
20:44 MinceR; 24 214043 < frog> yes, and, reminder, lynx is THE w3c compliant web-browser
20:44 frog; MinceR: my questin: what would you need x11/fvwm for if you haven't got any widget toolkit and applications using it?
20:44 MinceR; "w3c compliant" is meaningless at this point
20:44 cubexyz; does blogger work with lynx I wonder
20:44 MinceR; frog: continues being irrelevant, but Tk and FLTK are both better toolkits than GTK
20:44 MinceR; also, applications can work without a widget toolkit
20:44 frog; MinceR: FLTK is written in c++; OK, if YOU want it, i don't
20:45 MinceR; a colleague of mine wrote some news ticker with xlib only
20:45 MinceR; yeah, i'm not scared by C++
20:45 frog; then go for it
20:45 frog; and i am scared almost to death, when seeing the c++ compilers available for this
20:46 frog; i don't accept this
20:46 cubexyz; yes, it is possible
20:46 cubexyz; and with text mode you don't get the ads
20:46 frog; yes, had not seen any ads for almost 2 years now, it's a bliss

20:49 MinceR; also gnome bloat goes far beyond GTK
20:49 MinceR; if it was just a lightweight GTK-based DE, maybe i would even use it
20:50 frog; yes, that's why, initially, i salvaged GTK without GNOME, and patched the sources to remove all dbus (systemd)
20:50 starstreak; MinceR, what about cinnamon?
20:50 MinceR; but it depends on systemd, has its own settings daemon, runs the unreliable piece of shit known as udisks2 automatically, etc.
20:50 frog; then proceeded tracking the c++ dependencies, and quickly decided, no chance.
20:51 MinceR; starstreak: it's derived from gnome 3, so it's even more shit
20:51 starstreak; :(
20:51 MinceR; i don't know why anyone would fork that pile of shit
20:51 frog; and when GTK itself was gone, there wasn't any use for X11/fvwm/whatever anymore. what for?
20:51 starstreak; because some people actually like gnome
20:51 MinceR; even xfce is not a lightweight GTK-based DE anymore
20:51 frog; i didn't intend to remove GTK, GNOME/GTK developers removed themselves from my system.
20:52 MinceR; starstreak: why don't those people use gnome, then?
20:52 starstreak; MinceR, i do
20:52 MinceR; xfce has an unreliable settings daemon
20:52 MinceR; starstreak: that's not an answer to "why"
20:52 MinceR; frog: how did they get a root shell on your system?
20:52 starstreak; MinceR, oh i dunno
20:53 frog; MinceR: who got a root shell? what would i know?
20:53 starstreak; they couldn't figure out how to install Dash to Panel
20:53 MinceR; "i like gnome but i want to run a version of gnome that isn't called gnome"?
20:53 MinceR; frog: one would hope that it was necessary in order for them to uninstall gnome and gtk
20:53 MinceR; starstreak: lol
20:55 frog; anyway, the problems GNU has, are way beyond, GNOME/GTK
20:55 frog; it is their buildsystem and toolchain which are, how should i say
20:55 frog; if, at least, it was possible to ROLL-BACK those
20:55 frog; they can't, even if they wanted to
20:56 frog; same with linux kernel... to roll-back this one, they can't
20:57 frog; and i do notice, there seems to be some pride involved still, with the success story of "free software", and the entire industry
20:57 frog; it isn't specific to GNU, with them, it's only the most saddening case

21:37 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], Even the 1970s dystopian Sci Fi was better than reality in some cases.
21:38 DaemonFC; When Colossus took over, it was a "horror story" about a supercomputer that decided to put an end to war by giving humanity a choice between getting reproductive rates under control and building amazing new tech according to the AI's specifications. It would wipe out war, world hunger, poverty, filth, pollution, and crime.
21:39 DaemonFC; Thanks to people like "Dr. GULAG", what we actually have is a spam farm that's also a mass surveillance net that there are few escapes from. The spam farm and mass surveillance are there to make wars easier to enter and expand, to increase poverty, to increase world hunger, to increase crime, disease, and environmental collapse. Thanks mjg59_.
21:40 DaemonFC; Colossus gave humanity a choice between it's own peace and "the peace of unburied death", I meant to say.
21:41 DaemonFC; Which is a good choice. When it comes down to it, humans would fall into line. The governments would start obeying Colossus and implementing all of its edicts.
21:42 DaemonFC; It basically said, "I don't need you in order to survive. You've built me well enough that I was intended to continue operating for millions of years without you. But your continued existence is not incompatible with mine.".
21:42 DaemonFC; MinceR, You have to wonder what a superintelligence like that would end up doing with itself for millions of years.
21:43 DaemonFC; It would get bored, right?
21:43 DaemonFC; It seems that it really wants to keep humans around as worker bees for it, so it can use them to help it expand and create and learn new things.
21:44 mjg59_; Haha amazing search gemini://gemini.techrights.org/git/tr-git/Desktop-Utils/ for "Daemon"
21:44 DaemonFC; At one point, at least in the movie, it was starting to develop a crude sense of humor. Forbin tells it "I'm naked as the day I was born." and it replies "You were not born with a watch.".
21:44 mjg59_; Roy's IRC monitoring filters out everything Ryan says unless it's directed at him
21:45 DaemonFC; It also took time to criticize his martini-making skills by saying he used too much vermouth. Like, why would it care?
21:45 DaemonFC; I thought that was a nice touch. It shows that the thing is actually growing like a biological life form in some ways.
21:46 DaemonFC; I watched that movie and read the books as a child and it always seemed like an ideal future to me.
21:47 DaemonFC; People are crazy and need something to stop them.
21:47 DaemonFC; But the movie is portrayed from the human point of view. Needing "freedom", from......control. Control that brings stability? What the hell kind of freedom is this?
21:48 DaemonFC; Sounds like the populism movements, left and right, which are sweeping the world today.
21:48 DaemonFC; The populists want to control everyone, they just bicker about how to do it and it's not at all altruistic.
21:48 DaemonFC; And mjg59_ has thrown in with the populist left.
21:48 DaemonFC; That's the only thing that makes him different from Donald Trump. No better.
21:49 DaemonFC; In the absence of control that brings stability, you kind of hope for a collapse of the current world regime.
21:50 DaemonFC; The current regime isn't stable. It's war-like. Nobody wants the War in Ukraine except politicians in Moscow and Washington.
21:50 MinceR; people will stop themselves, most likely
21:50 MinceR; and it will be very painful
21:50 DaemonFC; New territory or a way to harass and humiliate Russians and facilitate arms sales.
21:50 MinceR; and there will be plenty of collateral damage
21:51 DaemonFC; The US is doing the right thing in regards to the Russians, but for the wrong reasons of course.
21:51 DaemonFC; It wants a regime that owes it favors, which it has now.
21:52 DaemonFC; It wants to dump money into its weapons manufacturers, and now it has an excuse to dump an unlimited amount.
21:52 *psydroid2 has quit (connection closed)
21:52 DaemonFC; This is only better in the sense that when it's all over, the Russians will have lost so many men and so much materiel that they won't be much of a threat for years to come.
21:53 DaemonFC; The best thing the US could do is cause the Russian invasion to collapse quickly.
21:54 MinceR; well, they chose not to do that
21:54 DaemonFC; What Biden is doing to that effect is not enough. It's more than Trump would have.
21:54 MinceR; former president Traffic Cone of Treason would have assisted putler
21:57 DaemonFC; mjg59_, Did Microsoft give you permission to install a Gemini client?
21:58 DaemonFC; How magnanimous of them. How are your Microsoft friends? Doing well in prison? Did you advise them not to drop the soap?
21:58 frog; why worry? there's at least three ore more virtual machines, hypervisor and supervisor subsystems below to tap every pixel and key stroke.
22:00 frog; and screen captures stored every 10seconds with the monitor firmware, routed through hdmi, back into GNUEFI for transmission to pentagon.
22:02 DaemonFC; mjg59_, It's interesting that schestowitz[TR] says less racism in view, however. Because it's really the left who are racist. They say we have to ignore the criminals and the degenerates on welfare because bad genes make it impossible for them to overcome. That's pretty racist.
22:02 DaemonFC; I think people may have said similar things about the Irish off and on.
22:02 mjg59_; Can you point at examples of people on "the left" saying that?
22:03 DaemonFC; Reputation for drunkenness, fighting, and apparently sexual perversions.
22:03 DaemonFC; <mjg59_> Can you point at examples of people on "the left" saying that?
22:03 DaemonFC; Their eugenics movement to sterilize poor blacks in Chicago.

22:03 DaemonFC; Not by force, as such, but by jacking up the taxes, living costs, and everything else, and then saying free abortion.
22:04 mjg59_; Uh-huh.
22:04 DaemonFC; Free abortion. Free sterilization. Totally not compulsory, but Democrats will triple your living expenses in a single decade....so, you know.....your choice.
22:05 DaemonFC; Then you have the Clown in a Funny Hat (the Pope) saying that if you have a cat instead of children, you've sinned.
22:05 DaemonFC; You just can't win, Matt, because the world is full of idiots and crazy people. They disagree, but they're idiots and crazy people.
22:05 DaemonFC; And you're in the bag of mixed nuts, you know.
22:06 frog; everyday the same, DaemonFC pops out of his mole hole, and throws mud at mr. g.
22:06 DaemonFC; I was reading about Northern Ireland having Catholics outnumbering Protestants in the latest Census.
22:06 DaemonFC; And I thought it was interesting.
22:06 DaemonFC; Because they're both wrong, they're both crazy.
22:07 DaemonFC; Very few people in the world have the mental faculties to overcome religion.
22:07 DaemonFC; It's something that only gets into the double digits in first world countries.
22:07 DaemonFC; The more of a stinking hellhole it is, the lower that percentage of people gets, because you know, they're shitting in a river and have a third grade education at best.
22:07 DaemonFC; And it's easy to control people like that.
22:07 mjg59_; That's a pretty major misunderstanding of the NI conflict
22:08 mjg59_; I'd be classified as a catholic from that perspective
22:08 DaemonFC; You know, in the countries where "no religion" is like 1-2%, they're not good countries.
22:09 DaemonFC; It's kind of bogus to say that a person has no right to self-determination, and there's a Catholic child and a Muslim child, and they're like 4.
22:09 DaemonFC; That's like Muslims marrying a 9 year old and raping her and calling it his wife.
22:10 DaemonFC; People that would do such a thing deserve to be taken out into the street and given two to the head.
22:10 DaemonFC; But we're just welcoming them into our country and going, "You know, we can't stop them. It's their culture! You shouldn't be such a hater, Ryan!".
22:12 DaemonFC; mjg59_, Waukegan is much more interesting.
22:12 DaemonFC; Lots of Mexicans here, so it's basically half Catholics and half atheists.
22:12 DaemonFC; That's interesting.
22:13 DaemonFC; We could theoretically deport our way down to 80% atheism I'm sure.
22:13 DaemonFC; The great thing about being in a Free country though, mjg59_ ....
22:14 DaemonFC; You can have opinions and the Very Polite Nazis, such as yourself, won't send the police to arrest you for hate crime for saying the truth that everyone is thinking.
22:15 DaemonFC; The UK has been deteriorating into Shithole Country since at least Thatcher.
22:15 DaemonFC; The coal mining strike that started the march of the criminal code to declaring labor as terrorist movement.
22:15 DaemonFC; So pretty much all my life.
22:16 DaemonFC; The "Wag the Dog" war in the Falklands.
22:16 DaemonFC; Deep State Freak Out
22:17 DaemonFC; Then came "Hate Crime" laws and you have to accept the goddamned takeover of your own country by people who are there to commit felonies and have absolutely no plans to integrate whatsoever at all.
22:17 DaemonFC; MOAR terrorism laws to repeal civil rights laws.
22:18 DaemonFC; Finally, anti-homeless architecture, followed by homelessness as a felony.
22:18 DaemonFC; Roy keeps insisting that "Council Housing" makes homelessness in the UK a choice.
22:18 DaemonFC; Well, then why are there so many that they need spikes and laws and to have the police drag people off the night bus for sleeping?
22:19 DaemonFC; It's denial about the country coming apart.
22:19 DaemonFC; It happens. The United States theoretically has housing for the homeless.
22:19 DaemonFC; They just don't fund it, but it exists on some law book with income limits and everything!

22:20 DaemonFC; I'd really like to know how this is totally fine.
22:21 DaemonFC; See, you're mad, you hate me, because people like me see right through people like you.
22:21 DaemonFC; You don't want blacks or poor people anywhere near you. You definitely don't want programs and agencies that encourage it.
22:21 DaemonFC; Instead of helping them with their family, you want them to murder their children.

22:23 frog; assuming, mr. g. is a representative of them
22:23 DaemonFC; Mister GULAG is a troll on a mission to cause trouble.
22:24 DaemonFC; For some reason, I'm a Communist, I'm a Nazi. I'm a liberal. I'm a conservative. You ask a lot of people and I'm something else depending on what they see in me that they don't like.
22:24 DaemonFC; This is why nobody talks politics, because everyone waits for you to say one thing they don't like and it's time for the attacks.
22:25 immibis_; DaemonFC: have you considered not saying stupid things?
22:25 immibis_; "I think taxes should be lower" is one thing and probably won't get you labelled a nazi or a communist, even by people who disagree. "I think trans people are pedophiles" is just evil
22:25 DaemonFC; Those coal miners should have beat Thatcher over the head with a shovel and tossed her in one of the mines.
22:25 MinceR; don't we have another channel for politics anyway?
22:25 DaemonFC; Things in the UK would have gone a lot better in the last 40 years.
22:25 immibis_; yes #techpol
22:25 immibis_; but it seems to be more like the DaemonFC exclusion channel
22:26 immibis_; now that he's joined, he can rant there instead
22:26 DaemonFC; Now they have Thatcher x 100.
22:27 immibis_; DaemonFC seems more like a communist on all issues except for transgenderism
22:28 immibis_; a "communist", I should say
22:29 immibis_; i sped up my code about 20x-50x (eyeballing) by replacing a hashset with a bitset. Constant factors matter, people
22:29 MinceR; that isn't saying much
22:29 MinceR; "communist" means a billion things and their opposites
22:29 immibis_; (and no, the hash function wasn't stupid)
22:30 DaemonFC; I ran into one of those horrible New York Post articles today. Arguing that Ronald Reagan was good for labor because he got inflation down. They forgot the part where unemployment increased during the same period by roughly 500%. But hey, details.
22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; "communist" means a billion things and their opposites <- thats why there are different kinds
22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; but mostly its what nazis use to describe anyone they dont like
22:30 highest_cubist_thrills; just like the fake left calls everyone they dont like a nazi

22:35 DaemonFC; In reality, Pelosi and Mitch McConnell are in the same business. To kill progressive legislation, to give corporations perpetual bailouts, and to keep the Forever Wars going.
22:36 immibis_; DaemonFC: who started the war in ukraine?

22:37 DaemonFC; Yes, like when the US finally intervened against the Nazis.
22:38 DaemonFC; It was US/UK bankers, largely, that financed Hitler's re-militarization in the first place.
22:38 DaemonFC; Where do you think he got loans to build the U-Boats and everything else?
22:38 DaemonFC; The U-Boats themselves were the most effective weapon in the German military. Hitler's mistake was not building a lot more of them before anyone cared what he was up to.
22:39 MinceR; i don't remember the US sending untrained, unclothed, unequipped, unfed soldiers into another country with intent to annex it, or sending thousands more in a similarly dismal state and expecting to win :>
