00:02 schestowitz-TR; I saw videos about food prices in Russia in 2020
00:02 schestowitz-TR; with inflation globally and now this one can assume it'll be a hard winter
00:02 XRevan86; Inflation's been big.
00:02 schestowitz-TR; heating bills (energy prices)
00:02 schestowitz-TR; and then food
00:02 XRevan86; and now it's going to be insane
00:02 XRevan86; So far it's manageable though.
00:02 schestowitz-TR; like the president
00:02 schestowitz-TR; insane

00:05 XRevan86; There were huge demonstrations today.
00:05 schestowitz-TR; XRevan86: I'm sure their "antiwar" "LIKES" in Facebook will age well...
00:05 XRevan86; in St. Petersburg the "law enforcement" was ruthless
00:05 schestowitz-TR; war enforcement
00:05 XRevan86; though in other cities too
00:05 XRevan86; accurate
00:06 schestowitz-TR; btw,
00:06 schestowitz-TR; is it ture pultler has parkinson's?
00:06 schestowitz-TR; or just someone's hunch?
00:06 XRevan86; Putin has something, but it's not confirmed.
00:06 MinceR; well, he certainly has sociopathy
00:06 schestowitz-TR; I know he has "SOMETHING"
00:07 schestowitz-TR; I can see that ;-)
00:07 MinceR; and narcissism
00:07 XRevan86; If ye look at any video with him that show him in full, his feet will be doing all sorts of things.
00:07 MinceR; and christianity
00:07 MinceR; so at least 3 mental illnesses
00:07 ahoy; i think we can probably upgrade his sociopathy to full blown psychopathy
00:08 schestowitz-TR; XRevan86: I don't suppose high-level insiders can oust him..
00:08 MinceR; i doubt high-level insiders would be better than him
00:08 schestowitz-TR; what I "like" about all this,
00:08 schestowitz-TR; ('like' scare quotes)
00:08 kingoffrance; i thought he was a high-level insider that's how he got the job :D
00:08 schestowitz-TR; is that it shows us how tech fails to remove dictators
00:08 schestowitz-TR; they just switch things off
00:08 XRevan86; kingoffrance: Touch
00:09 *bnchs__ has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
00:09 schestowitz-TR; or keep them on to choose "targets"
00:09 MinceR; well, there is some tech that can remove dictators
00:09 MinceR; but western sociopaths aren't willing to use it
00:09 MinceR; at the very least, if russia was glassed, putler wouldn't have much left to rule over
00:09 schestowitz-TR; it's scorched earth approach
00:09 schestowitz-TR; it's like getting rid of cancer by killing the host
00:09 XRevan86; schestowitz: Putin is still alive, that shows that he knows how to pick reliable people to be close to him.
00:10 ahoy; "turn it off if you want to, switch it off it will go away"-- phil collins
00:11 schestowitz-TR; MinceR: technically western sociopaths used it in 1945
00:11 ahoy; if i was putler id have a complete second russia built under the first one
00:11 MinceR; yeah, but they forgot to use it on moscow
00:11 MinceR; and so here we are
00:12 schestowitz-TR; moscow was at the time still fighting hitler, iirc
00:12 schestowitz-TR; need to check dates
00:12 schestowitz-TR; the western sociopaths also used stalin
00:14 MinceR; and then took over much of europe
00:14 MinceR; and installed dictatorships in every country
00:14 MinceR; and the western sociopaths just watched and thought "this is fine, fuck those people anyway"
00:15 ahoy; hitler, britain and usa all thought ussr would fall, each one tried to take advantage of it
00:15 MinceR; and the russia problem just kept on growing and growing and growing
00:15 ahoy; exactly

10:57 bnchs; windows would literally consume your memory and leak shit
10:58 bnchs; and probably die in it's own shit (BSOD)
10:58 bnchs; here's an example
10:59 bnchs; "At its peak, Columbia had a total of 10,240 processors and 20 terabytes of memory, 440 terabytes of online storage, and 10 petabytes of archival tape storage."
10:59 bnchs; but "Operating system: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server"
10:59 bnchs; "using Intel Itanium 2 Montecito and Montvale processors."
10:59 bnchs; so it can run windows
10:59 bnchs; but they chose SUSE gnu/linux
11:02 psydroid8; Windows was never good
11:02 psydroid8; It just filled the vacuum between UNIX and GNU/Linux
11:03 bnchs; how could you possibly call windows "good for servers" if it cant even run on a supercomputer
11:03 psydroid8; that period shouldn't have lasted more than a few years
11:03 psydroid8; a decade at most
11:04 psydroid8; but underhanded business tactics have kept it in place even though it's clearly inferior to other operating systems
11:04 bnchs; windows should have died
11:04 psydroid8; it's also not just about the operating system but other software that depends on it
11:04 bnchs; it cant compete with UNIX or UNIX-like oses

16:18 DaemonFC; But nobody knows for sure where it will end up. Even the Swiss are joining the sanctions.
16:19 DaemonFC; The US has completely cut off the Russian central bank from its $630 billion in US Dollar reserves, so there's no way to spend them down to support the Ruble.
16:20 DaemonFC; The Russian central bank more than doubled its benchmark interest rate overnight from 9.5% to 20%.
16:20 DaemonFC; Also, they announced that they won't open their stock market today so that nobody can see what kind of damage is unfolding there.
16:21 DaemonFC; "Fortress economy".
16:21 DaemonFC; It seems like we're able to do a hell of a lot more damage to Russia than they're capable of responding with, economically.
16:21 DaemonFC; Our stock market is down a little over 1%.
16:22 DaemonFC; In theory, Russia could shut off the oil and gas, but it would be temporarily satisfying at best.
16:22 DaemonFC; They would shut themselves off from almost 100% of their incoming revenues that are not under heavy sanctions, and in return, Europe would be forced to massively accelerate clean energy projects that would reduce their dependency on Russian gas forever.

19:18 DaemonFC; Now you can't even use the computer without a Microsoft Account and an internet connection.

19:48 DaemonFC; More sanctions could theoretically reduce the Ruble to a pseudo-currency.
19:48 DaemonFC; Like the Soviet Ruble was.
19:48 DaemonFC; Right now, it still has value left in trade for other world currencies, just ~40 less value than it did a week ago.
19:52 DaemonFC; The media was saying that the unofficial exchange rate is about 30% worse for the Ruble than the official one.
19:53 DaemonFC; So if that's holding, Russians are willing to pay perhaps about 140 Rubles to get a dollar right now even though officially it's about 105.
19:54 DaemonFC; Already, there are bank runs, and the news here is reporting that if this goes on much longer, the Russian central bank will have to simply lock Russians out of their own accounts to prevent bank failures when all of the deposit accounts are dried up.
19:54 DaemonFC; Or, possibly, severe limits, like you can only get out a certain amount of money per day.
19:56 DaemonFC; The US government allows you to take out as much as you want, but if you do more than $10,000 over a short period of time, the bank fills out a suspicious cash transaction report on you and files it with the Treasury.
19:57 DaemonFC; Depending on whether the Treasury thinks you're up to something, they may start auditing your bank accounts. You'd never know what they do.

20:00 DaemonFC; Gas prices are up way too much to do any non-essential driving right now and the UPS store is basically on the way to get him at work.
20:00 DaemonFC; Plus, I just don't like who we're buying the oil from. More than usual.
20:01 DaemonFC; So we're not going to be using the car for anything but back and forth to work and groceries.
20:01 DaemonFC; That's what governors and the president should be calling on Americans to do.
20:01 DaemonFC; Limit non-essential driving so we don't need all this oil, and can hurt Russia's economy more.
20:02 DaemonFC; Instead, they hit Russian vodka, which is at most, going to hurt them by $7 or 8 million per year.

20:13 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, It seems the US carriers are intent upon ruining RCS.
20:14 DaemonFC; AT&T has turned it into a walled garden that is not interoperable with Google's RCS, and T-Mobile is running its own RCS instance that causes lag between their RCS and Verizon's network, although the two are ultimately compatible at least.
20:14 DaemonFC; If Verizon and T-Mobile customers send messages to AT&T customers, even if the AT&T phone supports RCS, then it will cause them to fall back to SMS.
20:15 DaemonFC; Because AT&T is sabotaging it.
20:28 DaemonFC; I'm surprised that our bank hasn't announced changes to the rewards points structure on our credit card that I use at the gas station yet.
20:29 DaemonFC; Having 4% back permanently at the gas station costs them significantly more now than it has in years.
20:30 DaemonFC; Some people have reported that the bank doesn't like people who only use this card as a gas station card and cuts their limit down or closes the account, but I haven't had any trouble with them.
20:30 XRevan86; I have a question. Maybe Ariadne will be able to answer.
20:30 XRevan86; What is more volatile right now: Bitcoin or RUB?
20:36 DaemonFC; When I got the car from mom, it was only getting about 10 mpg in the city, and then after I replaced a bunch of worn out stuff in the ignition system, it came up to about 17 or so.
20:36 DaemonFC; It's still a big pig.
20:37 DaemonFC; 17 in the city is about what the EPA rated it for when it was a new car.
20:37 DaemonFC; She'll sit there and curse Biden if gas goes up 10 cents but she's avoiding a spark plug replacement that's costing her some mpg in the mean time, which would be pretty cheap.
20:38 DaemonFC; "Because I don't have any money this week."
20:39 DaemonFC; It's crazy how everyone in that family makes at least as much as me and Mandy put together, per person, and they're on bankruptcy #4 just like President Ronald McDonald.

20:45 DaemonFC; That's the "deal" Republicans have wanted to make with Baby Boomers on Social Security for a long time now.
20:46 DaemonFC; Of course, it isn't true, but if Trump says it, then most of them will believe him, even though he lies to everyone he makes a transaction with and there's no reason to ever expect that to change.
20:47 DaemonFC; " The governor of Texas has ordered prosecution of anyone (including parents) involved in providing sex-change treatments to transgender youth. This attempts to twist a law that Republicans failed to actually change. Some DAs in Texas have said they will refuse to comply prosecute.
20:47 DaemonFC; However, those families (and many others) may be persecuted anyway as state agencies investigate them, looking for an excuse to take their children away." -Stallman
20:48 DaemonFC; Also Stallman: "Let's put the state in charge of everything in your daily lives that it isn't already in charge of now. After all, even if their intent on a particular issue isn't currently malicious, governments absolutely never change parties.
20:49 DaemonFC; " The steady right-wing pressure to maintain maximum harshness against convicted criminals seizes on and magnifies any outlying case." -Stallman
20:50 DaemonFC; Stallman fails to understand the nature of recidivism. Most criminals fail to learn anything no matter how many chances you give them. Even when we were lenient on criminals and gave them free education and the ability to get expungements and start over, most of them didn't take advantage of any of it and kept excalating every time they were allowed out of prison.

20:50 DaemonFC; If a person commits a felony, chances are they'll do it over and over no matter how many second chances they're afforded.
20:51 DaemonFC; That's not a coincidence. Felonies are felonies because you'd have to be a terrible person to commit most of the crimes described as such.
20:51 DaemonFC; So the people committing them are probably irredeemable. How do you redeem a person who murders their own child, then tries to burn the body, and then dumps it in Gary Indiana?
20:52 DaemonFC; We have that case unfolding in the county I live in right now.

20:58 DaemonFC; Yes, the megabanks are pulling out of mostly rural towns in America, places like where my mom lives, reckoning that most people there are now so poor, due to years of right-wing economic policy, that they can no longer qualify for loans that are lucrative to the banks.
21:00 DaemonFC; They don't make money on deposit accounts if you don't take on expensive "loan products" so they don't particularly want deposit money anymore.
21:01 DaemonFC; They don't need it. The Fed will "capitalize" them as much as they require thanks to policies allowed by laws like Dodd-Frank.
21:01 DaemonFC; The only value in deposit accounts is they get offsetting rights if you default on your loans and have your money there.

21:13 DaemonFC; It looks like Russia is also losing a lot of military equipment that it didn't plan on.
21:13 DaemonFC; Someone has to pay to replace that too.
21:13 DaemonFC; Those stupid Chechens lost a column of 56 tanks a few hours after they crossed the border, and that was in one incident.
21:14 XRevan86; DaemonFC: Was that the National Guard?
21:14 DaemonFC; Putin is a wonderful strategist, you know. Sending all of that expensive armor in a neat little column out in the open for the Ukrainians to hit with cheap anti-tank missiles.
21:15 DaemonFC; Yeah, I think so.
21:15 XRevan86; They're more used to dealing with people who are unarmed :)
21:16 DaemonFC; Those tanks usually cost about 15-20 times more than even a disposable missile launcher system that destroys one does. And the Ukrainians are typically using launchers that can be reloaded.
21:16 DaemonFC; The Germans gave them 50 launchers the other day and 400 missiles. So it looks like they're using those pretty well.
21:16 XRevan86; Really? NLAWs are disposable.
21:16 XRevan86; I see they got a lot more.
21:17 DaemonFC; The Panzerfaust 3 is reusable.
21:18 DaemonFC; Yeah, the goal of the countries supplying Ukraine seems to be get them stuff that infantry can use to quickly take down a lot of Russian tanks and APCs and aircraft.
21:18 DaemonFC; And a lot of it.
21:18 DaemonFC; So the longer the Russians are there, the more of a bloodbath it's going to be for them.
21:19 DaemonFC; So when you see the pictures of dozens of Russian tanks and APCs on fire and ruined on the side of the road, that's what happened.
21:19 DaemonFC; Putin is an idiot.
21:20 DaemonFC; This is going a lot worse for him than our invasion of Iraq because the Russian military isn't as advanced as ours, and they're dealing with anti-tank and anti-aircraft stuff that actually works against what they're fielding.
21:21 DaemonFC; Whereas our forces were mostly being shot at by obsolete equipment that was designed well before composite and reactive armor.
21:21 DaemonFC; If you could just keep hitting it and hitting it, you'd eventually destroy the tank, but you know, the Russians are dealing with stuff where one shot destroys a tank.
21:22 DaemonFC; And they're so incompetent that they're sabotaging their own military.
21:22 DaemonFC; I mean who the fuck actually comes pouring over a border and runs out of diesel and then gets their tank blown up because it can't even move? LOL
21:22 DaemonFC; The best targets in a Russian column would be refueling trucks.
21:23 DaemonFC; Because of the potential for the secondary explosion, and the fact that you can strand everyone that needed refueling right where they run out of gas and then light them all up from there.
21:24 DaemonFC; So the drone strikes should be targeting the fuel trucks. And I suppose that's probably what they're going after having seen the still images from the videos.
21:24 bnchs; theres this chinese company that has a monopoly on cameras in our country
21:25 DaemonFC; When the column runs out of gas it becomes a roadblock for anything that rolls in behind it too, so you run them out of gas, blow them up, and then nothing else can use that road.
21:25 bnchs; they have a history of very poor security and backdoor accounts discovered on their cameras

22:56 bnchs; "We may disclose certain parts of code, specifically related to communication and encryption. However, the decentralized protocol will not be released. Utopia is very knowledge-intensive software. A lot of time, effort and resources went into this product, and we do not want to share all of our know-how as it will result in forks which in turn may result in instability of [our main network]. Fork will lead to the division of the community, while our
22:56 bnchs; intention is the unification of the community of like-minded individuals. The bottom line here is that a lot of software is closed source, and this does not hurt them a bit. In addition, we will audit our code."
