02:40 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR2, Carlin mentioned refrigerators and heat and winter.
02:41 DaemonFC; He said it's cold outside so you have to make a hot space and then you have to pay to make a cold space in the hot space while it's cold.
02:41 DaemonFC; Not running the heat makes the refrigerator work less, and then you use even less power.
02:41 schestowitz-TR2; yeah
02:42 schestowitz-TR2; in winter we use the cold weather to keep some foods cold
02:42 schestowitz-TR2; if you have something near the exists
02:42 schestowitz-TR2; *exits
02:42 MinceR; you have that "cold space in the hot space" also when it's hot outside though :>
02:43 MinceR; it does give me an idea, though
02:43 TR News; Yesterday's bulletin is now ready! : http://techrights.org/txt-archives/techrights-2021-12-26.txt | gemini://gemini.techrights.org/tr_text_version/techrights-2021-12-26.txt (tentative address, to work an hour from now)
02:43 MinceR; one could have a separate room for the refrigerator[s] with an insulated door, and keep the windows of it open during winter or something
02:44 DaemonFC; Yeah, but I run the air conditioner hard during the summer.
02:44 DaemonFC; So not running the heat too much in the winter helps offset that.
02:44 DaemonFC; The electric company says I'm about 30% less efficient than "all neighbors" with comparable units in the summer, but I'm about 25% more efficient than "efficient neighbors" during the winter.
02:45 schestowitz-TR2; how do they know?
02:45 schestowitz-TR2; "Smart" shit?
02:45 schestowitz-TR2; all they should know is how much you use?
02:45 schestowitz-TR2; not how many people
02:45 schestowitz-TR2; or when etc.
02:45 schestowitz-TR2; you are on the grid
02:45 schestowitz-TR2; they take a reading sometimes
02:46 schestowitz-TR2; they don't know who takes how much
02:46 MinceR; maybe that's "efficiency" to them
02:46 schestowitz-TR2; unless there are "spy meters"
02:46 schestowitz-TR2; MinceR: exactly
02:46 schestowitz-TR2; they have these meters BECAUSE they cannot tell who takes how much off the grid
02:47 schestowitz-TR2; unless it passes through an in-house gauge of some kind
02:47 schestowitz-TR2; same for water
02:47 schestowitz-TR2; water flows
02:47 schestowitz-TR2; water gets sucked into places

03:01 TR News; In a matter of hours #tuxmachines will have posted its 160,000th node. Hurrah!
03:01 DaemonFC; They claim it's a "CO2 reduction" strategy.

03:02 schestowitz-TR2; as if they care about people using less power
03:02 schestowitz-TR2; maybe tackle cars
03:02 DaemonFC; Communist Edision, which gets a lot of state bailouts, and then there was that bribery mess, just doesn't want to pay meter readers.
03:02 schestowitz-TR2; the energy supplier want you to use MORE power
03:02 DaemonFC; So call it "CO2 reduction".
03:02 schestowitz-TR2; now the spy meters, on their own, use additional power
03:03 schestowitz-TR2; DaemonFC: maybe they should aloso hand out plastic bags for farts
03:03 schestowitz-TR2; to avoid methane going into the atmosphere
03:04 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR2, ComEd now says they won't bill you $1.75 convenience fee for paying with credit or debit cards.
03:04 DaemonFC; So I can get 1.5% back on my electric bills now. Woohoo.

03:04 DaemonFC; The whole reason for the convenience fee was to get you to give them your bank routing number to avoid the fee.
03:05 schestowitz-TR2; I need to make a meme for TM
03:05 DaemonFC; It was made to be so big that unless you were paying for an industrial amount of electricity, you couldn't earn enough points to be worth it.

03:05 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR2, I figure it's good for maybe $12 a year....meh.
03:05 DaemonFC; It's not nothing.
03:06 schestowitz-TR2; I fought our energy supplier this year
03:06 schestowitz-TR2; spoke to several bosses
03:06 schestowitz-TR2; they compensated me at the end
03:06 DaemonFC; I'm pinching pennies to try to offset the rent increase.
03:06 schestowitz-TR2; but not worth the amount of hassles it needed
03:06 DaemonFC; I started paying the rent with checks instead of money orders, I pay the electric bill with a cashback credit card now.
03:07 DaemonFC; I got a laundry system rigged up so that I can do as much as I need to in here without feeding quarters into someone else's banged up machine with shit smeared all over it.
03:07 DaemonFC; The first and last time I used my landlord's machines, it ruined one of my shirts with someone else's bleach.
03:08 DaemonFC; I told him. But you know how landlords are.
03:08 DaemonFC; "It's not my stuff getting ruined."

03:13 DaemonFC; One person in your workplace tests positive for the Coronavirus, everyone else has to go get tested.
03:13 DaemonFC; You can be down several people while they all wait for results, and this can happen unlimited times.
03:13 DaemonFC; I've only tested three times since this whole thing started.
03:14 DaemonFC; I'll go get a test if I'm having symptoms of a respiratory infection.
03:14 DaemonFC; But it's pretty pointless to just go get a test every week when I feel fine.
03:14 schestowitz-TR2; I only get exposed to one person
03:15 schestowitz-TR2; who is mutually controlled
03:15 schestowitz-TR2; to ensure neither of us gets infected
03:15 schestowitz-TR2; one colleague
03:15 schestowitz-TR2; one person
03:15 DaemonFC; All that does is clog the system and make it take longer for people who really need the results back quicker.

03:15 DaemonFC; Things are never going to settle down.
03:15 DaemonFC; It's going to fade away for everyone who gets exposed to it.
03:16 DaemonFC; But it'll be an annoying cold in a few years for us, and then you come out and it's still COVID.

03:21 DaemonFC; There's pills you can take, and soon a shot you can get every two months, but that's not a vaccine. If you stop taking it, the protection disappears immediately, and the longer you're on those drugs, the more likely you are to harm your bones, kidneys, and liver.

03:24 DaemonFC; In a huge retcon of history.
03:24 DaemonFC; The CDC wasn't doing a hell of a lot, granted, but it didn't make them go to the bathhouse, use drugs, and skip the condoms.
03:24 DaemonFC; It was Fauci that was put in charge of bungling that.
03:25 DaemonFC; This guy is warmed over shit from the 80s
03:25 DaemonFC; Now people are surprised. Reagan really was right when he said that the scariest words in the English language are "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help.".

04:07 DaemonFC; So that you can't say anything about it.
04:07 DaemonFC; NAMBLA even tried those tactics.
04:07 DaemonFC; They wanted to "legitimize" child rape/inappropriate relationships with minors, so they tried to crash gay pride parades and stuff.
04:07 schestowitz-TR2; interesting POV
04:07 schestowitz-TR2; in particular:
04:07 schestowitz-TR2; [04:06] <DaemonFC> schestowitz-TR2, I'd say he's a sex pervert, but that many men are, and there's this campaign to normalize perversions.
04:07 schestowitz-TR2; because:
04:07 schestowitz-TR2; Microsoft Peter worked to nroamlise thios
04:07 DaemonFC; And most didn't want them there because they were fucking up everything we were trying to get done and we didn't want them near us.
04:08 schestowitz-TR2; his having sex with kids
04:08 schestowitz-TR2; and even spoke to people at work (IIRC) about it
04:08 schestowitz-TR2; and some got the wrong vibe
04:08 schestowitz-TR2; not yet knowing he himself was an offender
04:08 schestowitz-TR2; he's in prison now

04:11 DaemonFC; *people
04:11 schestowitz-TR2; I see your point
04:11 schestowitz-TR2; and yes, they use that line
04:11 schestowitz-TR2; like,
04:11 schestowitz-TR2; "first a man with man"
04:11 schestowitz-TR2; "then man with pet..."
04:11 schestowitz-TR2; as if one follows from the other

04:12 schestowitz-TR2; no need to repeat

04:13 DaemonFC; Well, if I had gotten to a guy like that, the cops would have been there to save him from me.
04:13 DaemonFC; There was a story like that in the news recently. A guy beat the shit out of a child molester and the cops didn't file charges. I mean, what jury would convict?
04:14 schestowitz-TR2; you'd have done to him what the dad would do to a stray dog
04:14 schestowitz-TR2; DaemonFC: but if he beat him up to death?
04:14 schestowitz-TR2; they might say it's disproportionate
04:14 DaemonFC; I wouldn't convict him of it.

04:15 DaemonFC; When juries refuse to convict people who shoot rapists, and stuff, you know.
04:15 DaemonFC; Maybe it'll send a message.
04:16 schestowitz-TR2; sometimes context is lacking
04:16 schestowitz-TR2; that's why cops cannot just show up and shoot people
04:16 schestowitz-TR2; if arrest is possible
04:16 DaemonFC; It never ceases to amaze me how wicked, evil, and depraved the politicians are in this state.
04:16 DaemonFC; They let child rapists out of prison to crime again.

16:33 schestowitz-TR2; it does not even specify any particular implementation, version etc./

16:34 schestowitz-TR2; gemini is transport (return codes etc.) and gemtext
16:34 schestowitz-TR2; SomeH4x0r: because gemini emerged with tls mandated by default
