00:22 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR3], Yes, I bought the best one they sell at Walmart and I've been using it for a couple years. Blades still sharp. Motor hasn't crapped out.

00:22 DaemonFC; It pays for itself every month we use it!

00:23 DaemonFC; Okay, I got the Buick back again. Man, that guy at the body shop really halfassed that fender.

00:24 DaemonFC; I saw the other side of it once they had the new one on. The guy they sent it off to before got the surface rust off, put bondo on it, and painted it. Looked real good for two months and started bubbling up with a vengeance.

00:25 DaemonFC; So I was NOT happy. They replaced it with a new fender at the shop today to make that right. The old one was basically half-rust, especially at the bottom where you'd never see it, but behind the part that was bubbling up, I took a screwdriver and poked it through the other side without any real effort.

00:25 DaemonFC; So it was months away from breaking through and leaving some nice big fat rust holes and turning my Buick into an eyesore.

00:26 DaemonFC; I'm surprised there was even enough metal that it hadn't done that already from the way the interior side looked.

00:37 DaemonFC; "And with all of this hybrid immunity and 90% less testing, uhh, there's like 90% less cases out there, and deaths!"

00:38 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR3], I have hybrid immunity, you know. I don't drive a hybrid so I don't have three times as many car repair bills and 5x greater risk of catalytic converter theft.

00:39 DaemonFC; Total immunity from hybrids.

00:40 DaemonFC; Completely vaccinated against the Prius. But Biden is a pain in my gas hole.

00:41 MinceR; maybe don't let him put it in your gas hole, then.

00:41 DaemonFC; You'd have to have like $9 gallons of gas before the car being in the shop all the time needing $10,000 batteries and multi-thousand dollar sensor repairs would be worth the trouble.

00:42 DaemonFC; And we're not even half the way there yet, unless you're in California, where the liberals have completely replaced the Free Market with bullshit and nonsense and mjg59_ has a direct pipe so he can inhale his own farts.

00:43 DaemonFC; California has lost 750,000 residents in 10 years and that's on top of having about 124,000 excess deaths since 2020, mostly from COVID.

00:44 DaemonFC; But the 750,000 loss in net residents was mostly people who found it intolerable to live in California anymore and left and won't pay taxes there again. (To Newsom so he can prop up illegal aliens and ban transportation that the bulk of the state needs.)

00:44 DaemonFC; Then they had 124,000 excess deaths, and lead the nation in the baby bust too.

00:44 reptilian_thrills; after a few years, one night she asks her husband (a sailor) what her sister had always warned her to never let him do

00:44 reptilian_thrills; "honey?" she said, "do you want to try it THE OTHER WAY?"

00:45 reptilian_thrills; "WHAT?" her husband replie

00:45 reptilian_thrills; "AND FILL THE HOUSE WITH KIDS?"

00:45 DaemonFC; Nancy Pelosi's husband being attacked this morning, is something that's never gotten anywhere close to happening to a US House Speaker before, and we've had some really shitty ones.

00:45 DaemonFC; But Pelosi takes the taco.

00:46 DaemonFC; He shouldn't have been attacked, but it was the byproduct of the ruin and rot that the Democrats have brought to a culmination in America.

00:46 MinceR; "and probably ate it too!"

00:51 DaemonFC; I posted to the Bailey Campaign wall: "Even if the governor cannot unilaterally repeal the SAFE-T Act, the governor is still important. Because Pritzker's administration will defend it in court no matter how bad things are getting, and the next thing he's going to sign is crack cocaine and fentanyl (enough to kill 1,500 people) as a Class A Misdemeanor. It's already passed the House.

00:51 DaemonFC; I wish I was joking, but only the Democrats are sick enough to turn dealers who are poisoning our country and killing 68,000 Americans a year into Misdemeanants."

00:53 DaemonFC; I am currently a Misdemeanant myself, if only barely. Speaking as someone who was tried and pleaded guilty to being a slight disturber of the peace, I don't believe I should be in the same category as drug dealers.

00:54 DaemonFC; It's clear why the Democrat Party is trying to lower drug dealing to a Misdemeanor.

00:54 DaemonFC; It's so they can't do anything to them in court for it, and they'll be out voting for Democrats again in no time flat (if they vote).

00:55 DaemonFC; The only good thing about people who are illiterate and stupid, like Gonad's family, is that they don't get how not voting hurts them.

00:55 DaemonFC; So they're off getting themselves into trouble over nonsense and punching the cops when they get there.

00:56 DaemonFC; The ones who realize more welfare and less consequences for their crimes help them might vote, but that's beyond a lot of them.

↺ https://www.straightdope.com/21342720/was-star-wars-based-on-flash-gordon

01:00 TR Bot; Was Star Wars based on Flash Gordon? - The Straight Dope

01:01 DaemonFC; Everything is at least somewhat derivative then, and especially now.

01:01 DaemonFC; If you want to call Star Wars a Flash Gordon rip-off, then you have to call everything a rip-off of something else.

01:02 DaemonFC; The term "rip-off" should be saved for something that is (1) just straight up plagiarized or close to it and/or (2) done with an intimate working insider knowledge that only someone working directly with the competing project/product could know.

01:03 DaemonFC; Star Wars is different enough from Flash Gordon that while it definitely borrows, I wouldn't call it stolen, and both are worth seeing in their own right.

01:03 DaemonFC; It was interesting that Microsoft funded an anti-Linux hit piece called Samizdat, which accused Linux of being "openly stolen" from MINIX.

01:04 DaemonFC; Especially after they stole NT from VMS and settled, and stole Internet Explorer from Spyglass Mosaic and settled.

01:04 DaemonFC; If you feel you can go to court, win, and just pay the lawyers, what's up with billions of dollars in settlement money?

01:08 DaemonFC; Where Star Wars started to go very wrong was instead of a "Special Edition" that cleaned up the original film stock and upscaled it and was like the 4K redo of Lawrence of Arabia, they went back and added shitty CGI scenes, changed the meaning of important character building scenes that they got better the first time around, and injected "kid stuff" and things like the unnecessary Jabba the Hutt scene, which didn't even work because Jabba ended

01:08 DaemonFC; up having a tail in Return of the Jedi, and Harrison Ford walked behind the actor in the deleted scene.

01:09 DaemonFC; So they did something worse than just retroactively adding Jabba the Hutt and building him up to be a scary villain in the first movie, they had Han step on his tail and turn him into a joke, and then in the third movie he's a vile gangster who is really scary, after the "step on his tail and nothing happens".

01:09 MinceR; EEPROM Gordon

01:10 MinceR; 29 020350 < DaemonFC> It was interesting that Microsoft funded an anti-Linux hit piece called Samizdat, which accused Linux of being "openly stolen" from MINIX.

01:10 DaemonFC; I wish I had never seen the Special Editions. The fan edits from Original Trilogy are far better. They just enhance the visual quality of the original versions.

01:10 MinceR; sounds like folks at MICROS~1 don't know what "openly" means

01:11 DaemonFC; Well, you have trouble "stealing" open code and getting away with it.

01:11 DaemonFC; You can look at the MINIX code and the Linux code and see they have almost nothing in common.

01:12 DaemonFC; Microsoft CoPilot, I hope people do gang up on them and sue because they deserve to be sued for it.

19:08 DaemonFC; I think that this might be what they called "Japanese Beetles" at one point.

19:14 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], I posted to WGN: When your KIA/Hyundai engine may explode because of metal shavings left inside (by the 12 year olds working at the factory in Alabama?), they cover it with warranty of "software reprogramming".

19:14 DaemonFC; I don't know how "software reprogramming" fixes a problem that can only be solved by tearing the engine down. It's probably cheap for them though.

19:14 DaemonFC; I saw two KIAs in Lake County explode within two weeks in 2020.

19:14 DaemonFC; They also "software reprogram" the hardware-defective airbag sensor instead of properly replacing it.

19:14 DaemonFC; Doesn't sound like their "powertrain warranty" is very good. Then if the warning light goes off and says the engine might explode, it puts your car in "limp home mode" and the dealer will try to grind you down into letting them install someone else's used engine of unknown origin instead of a new one.

19:14 DaemonFC; They also have......brake fluid that might catch fire. Very high quality. Nothing but the best.

19:14 DaemonFC; Halt and Catch Fire is no longer just a computer joke. Don't you love your "modern" cars? The KIAs are like a really modern Ford Pinto, only there's so much government corruption that nobody has to fix it right and people will be dying for years, even after the "warranty fix" that fixes nothing.

19:20 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], They pretty much just piss all over US labor laws.

19:20 DaemonFC; There were kids as young as 12 found working in the KIA/Hyundai plants in Alabama.

19:20 DaemonFC; So far, the government is just dragging its feet on the investigation.

19:21 DaemonFC; Probably figuring that the public outrage will die down and then they can give them a very small fine, and of course they'll do it again because they got away with it this time.

19:22 DaemonFC; If you plan on committing crimes, you go to the friendliest jurisdiction for that crime and do business there. Alabama obviously isn't going to do shit about this, which means the punishment, if any, will come from the federal level.

19:23 DaemonFC; If this happened in Illinois, there would be a police raid, a massive fine....

19:26 DaemonFC; What the hell is wrong with this country?

19:28 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], Three states have banned slave labor by defining it as prison labor not subject to the usual labor laws and standards. That's a hell of a lot better than nothing.

19:28 DaemonFC; 5 more are voting on it this year, the voters are.

19:28 DaemonFC; This is not coming from politicians. It's coming from ballot initiatives.

19:29 DaemonFC; Illinois won't let us vote on it. It's amazing how the Very Progressive Democratic Party won't allow me to vote on whether to free their (mostly black) slaves from uncompensated work. Isn't it?

21:34 DaemonFC; LOL

21:34 TR Bot; Gemini Portal

21:34 schestowitz[TR]; seems like quite a headline

21:35 DaemonFC; It's not a conspiracy. There are parents trying to evade Texas child protection laws to get their children gender-mutilated at like 4 years old.

21:35 DaemonFC; They say they're worried they'll come back to Texas, and be arrested, and have their kids taken from them by Child Services.

21:35 DaemonFC; And that is what should happen.

21:36 DaemonFC; I rarely say children should be taken from the home by the state, but in this case, the parents are obviously crazy and unfit and are trying to do something worse than Female Genital Mutilation to a child.

21:36 *immibis has quit (connection closed)

21:36 DaemonFC; And they call anyone who opposes this "transphobic".

21:36 *immibis (~hexchat@6wevdscyutjfy.irc) has joined #techrights

21:36 DaemonFC; A 4 year old child!

21:37 DaemonFC; Most 4 year olds are still learning how to speak. They aren't even in school yet. If they're getting "gender surgery", it's what the parents....the sick parents....want.

21:38 DaemonFC; This is what happens when people like mjg59_ are allowed to use the thin edge of the wedge.

21:38 DaemonFC; Eventually anyone who opposes attacking a 4 year old child is a transphobe.

21:40 phanes; can you imagine being like 22 and trying to start a family and realizing you can't have kids because your family ripped your gender away because you liked the barbie doll instead of the ken doll

21:41 DaemonFC; I don't think anyone in my family ever cared which particular "gender" toys the kids played with.

21:42 DaemonFC; And the toy companies spent years splitting this on arbitrary lines anyway.

21:43 DaemonFC; Nintendo moved their consoles from the electronics/computer section of the store over to the toy section, and then they put all of their advertising and video game development into targeting boys, and they put it in the boy's section at the toy aisles.

21:43 DaemonFC; It was Nintendo and Sega that started over after the 1985 video game crash and tried to make video gaming a total sausage fest and it worked!

21:45 DaemonFC; Like 80% of them are Democrats and everyone knows it.

21:47 schestowitz[TR]; I thought the opposite

21:47 DaemonFC; Strangely, blue states are worse about prison labor than red states are. Indiana might have them picking up trash on the roads, but Illinois and California are having them compete with people who are not in prison over jobs that should pay well.

21:47 schestowitz[TR]; you are mstaking things here

21:47 schestowitz[TR]; and are interjecting off-topic nonsense anyway

21:47 DaemonFC; Comcast uses prison labor.

21:47 DaemonFC; You call in and give your Social Security Number to someone to sign up for their ISP, and it's a prisoner.

21:48 DaemonFC; In there for a felony. Taking down your SSN.

21:49 DaemonFC; They can read the prison mail, they can listen to prisoner phone calls. But they usually don't.

21:49 DaemonFC; Not unless they suspect something.

21:49 DaemonFC; So the guy could be in there, selling people's info to identity theft rings, and getting some commissary money on the side for it.

21:51 DaemonFC; My Aunt worked in a prison in Indiana for years.

21:51 DaemonFC; They have an obligation to provide healthcare for prisoners, but they do the least possible for them, and often not even that.

21:52 phanes; how has illinois not devolved into a mad max situation yet

21:53 DaemonFC; That's well underway.

21:53 DaemonFC; The crime rate is surging, up 40% since 2018. It'll only get worse in January when the police officially can't do shit about it anymore because of the SAFE-T Act.

21:57 schestowitz[TR]; gradually

21:57 schestowitz[TR]; so that is looms like you grow and grow

21:57 schestowitz[TR]; then "buy" some companies

21:57 schestowitz[TR]; pay them with fake-valued "shares"

21:58 schestowitz[TR]; and then fire all the workers

22:48 DaemonFC; What's actually going on here is that the Democrats aren't going to be happy until the nation collapses and now that the "Health Department" turned out to not have any fangs to destroy jobs and increase crime that way, they've decided to unilaterally disarm the court system.

22:48 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Twitter surviving is vital for the government.

22:48 schestowitz[TR]; how so?

22:48 DaemonFC; Since it's an arm of government propaganda and surveillance.

22:49 schestowitz[TR]; right, but

22:49 schestowitz[TR]; it is a double-edged sword

22:49 schestowitz[TR]; messes up minds

22:49 DaemonFC; I don't know that they will allow it to collapse and maybe that's why Musk just had to have it.

22:49 schestowitz[TR]; reduces productivity

22:49 schestowitz[TR]; allows foreign intervention...

22:49 phobos_anomaly; You two think Musk would act as a government agent in that capacity?

22:49 DaemonFC; Yes!

22:50 DaemonFC; Most of his business profits are taxpayer money handed to him.

22:50 schestowitz[TR]; the owners of twitter are now audis and a south african

22:50 schestowitz[TR]; "*saudis

22:50 DaemonFC; It's not making cars that people want. Teslas are some of the lowest quality cars you can buy.

22:50 phobos_anomaly; It wouldn't surprise me though after talking with him personally, I came away with the impression that he isn't the sort to stab people in the back like that

22:50 DaemonFC; Even by EV standards they're very unreliable and low quality.

22:50 phobos_anomaly; who knows though

22:51 DaemonFC; Buick and Chevy make EVs that don't have this sort of early battery failure rate, unpainted panels, mismatching tires, and other problems.

22:51 phobos_anomaly; I met him once in Texas long ago

22:52 DaemonFC; It's hilarious. People pay $160,000 for a Tesla, and it comes with a battery that's defective, fenders that are misaligned and only painted on the side you can see, and four different types and brands of tires!

22:52 phobos_anomaly; wow

22:52 DaemonFC; I mean, you can pay half that and get a Buick EV that doesn't have any of those problems.

22:52 DaemonFC; And if it does, there's a dealership you can take it to in almost every city.

22:52 phobos_anomaly; In salt lake city, there used to be a group of illegals that would stand in front of the Tesla dealership with signs about how Tesla won't hire illegals

22:53 DaemonFC; Try KIA.

22:53 DaemonFC; :)

22:53 phobos_anomaly; lol

22:53 DaemonFC; They hire illegals and 12 year olds and illegal 12 year olds.

22:53 DaemonFC; They may have to move to Alabama though.

22:53 phobos_anomaly; at least it isn't China or Me he co

22:53 DaemonFC; It just totally shocked me how badly Tesla cars are made.

22:54 DaemonFC; You drive around through three Illinois winters.

22:54 DaemonFC; And the bottom of the car looks like a 25 year old Chevy.

22:54 DaemonFC; You have shit rusted through and broken off and rust holes.

22:54 DaemonFC; On a three year old car!

22:55 DaemonFC; That's what happens when you don't treat the metal with a zinc layer, or paint the opposite end of the body panels.

22:55 DaemonFC; It just starts rusting as soon as the road salt hits it.

22:55 DaemonFC; They don't even prime them.

22:55 DaemonFC; If they were even priming the inner fender, it wouldn't rust for quite a while.

22:56 DaemonFC; It's crap. Crap crap crap. Musk makes money from government emissions credit schemes, even though the Teslas cause more emissions than my old Buick.

22:57 *oarion7 (~anonymous@user/oarion7) has joined #techrights

22:57 DaemonFC; You have to build five Teslas to outlive a Buick and then you charge the Tesla from a coal or natural gas-fired power plant.

22:57 DaemonFC; This shows what politics does when it hits engineering.

22:58 DaemonFC; There's folks in Illinois that hang on to cars from the 60s and 70s and 80s before they had all this emissions crap on it.

22:58 DaemonFC; They go to Ziebart or something every year just before winter and get the car treated so it doesn't rust real fast.

22:58 DaemonFC; And then they just drive around with it.

22:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 21.25 k/sec., IPFS upstream 124.41 average k/sec., average swarm size 107.93

22:59 DaemonFC; There's a special WD-40 anti-rust spray. When I have the car in for an oil change before winter, I usually hose the undercarriage down in it while it's on the lift.


11 PM, October 29

23:00 DaemonFC; It repels the saltwater. Eventually the WD-40 will wash off but it does drastically slow down the rust.

23:00 DaemonFC; I don't give a flying fuck about what the Democrats want me to drive.

23:00 phobos_anomaly; same

23:00 DaemonFC; I WANT a big old heavy American car with a big engine in it.

23:01 phobos_anomaly; I drive a vehicle with an industrial grade dodge 440

23:01 phobos_anomaly; makes liberals cry :D

23:01 DaemonFC; The Buick and the Impala have the smallest engines I've ever owned in a car outright.

23:01 DaemonFC; Still, they're the 3800 V6.

23:01 DaemonFC; I wouldn't want anything less under the hood.

23:02 DaemonFC; I drive around like I have a lead foot. The insurance apps don't really punish you much for it though.

23:02 DaemonFC; They punish slamming the brakes and messing around on your phone and taking corners too fast.

23:02 DaemonFC; They don't weigh acceleration heavily.

23:03 DaemonFC; Well, the smaller engines don't get much better gas mileage.

23:03 DaemonFC; What they are is cheap, flimsy, and tuned to keep the power to weight ratio where people want it to be.

23:04 DaemonFC; They don't last very long because you're trying to get too much power out of an engine with that displacement size, and you're building it out of aluminum and plastic.

23:04 DaemonFC; If they wanted to, they could tune them so you could get 50 miles a gallon in the city in a KIA, but nobody would want to drive it.

23:04 DaemonFC; So you're lucky if it gets 24-25. I can get 20 out of a Buick with a 3800.

23:05 DaemonFC; You don't need to have a hybrid to get 50 mpg. We knew how to do this in 1995. You'll just have to accept that the car won't go very fast.

23:06 DaemonFC; What's interesting is that people still have those old GEO Metros.

23:06 DaemonFC; But you can't keep an EV for 6 years without a $14,000 battery they don't make?

23:07 DaemonFC; Those old GEOs, you know, people mocked you for driving one.

23:07 DaemonFC; But people WANT them now. They cost almost nothing to repair because they don't have any hybrid crap in them and they get you 50-55 mpg.

23:08 DaemonFC; There's a market for a small car with an engine that's fairly sluggish but gets good mileage. It's a lot faster than walking. They're good on long commutes.

23:08 DaemonFC; But nobody will make them anymore because they want cars that "start at $50,000".

23:09 DaemonFC; If they built a Prius to get good mileage, it would get over 100 miles per gallon.

23:09 DaemonFC; They don't even tune hybrids for mileage. So where's the environmental argument?

23:15 DaemonFC; I remember laughing at those Banquet TV dinners 20 years ago.

23:16 DaemonFC; They were like 78 cents and actually, they did have quite a bit of food in them. It wasn't terrific, but it was food, and filling. It was 78 cents. What to you want?

23:16 DaemonFC; Now they're $1.58 and there's like, nothing in them when you open the box.

23:17 DaemonFC; Walmart puts fake reviews all over their grocery site now.

23:17 DaemonFC; If you look at the bottom it says "This review collected as part of a promotion." or "Written by an Influenster user.".

23:19 DaemonFC; I wonder with all of these paid shills and rebate schemes if they wouldn't be better off just spending the money to put food back in the food.

23:19 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], It's like Microsoft, Stouffer's Edition.

23:19 DaemonFC; It's not good anymore, but there's shills and rebates.

23:20 DaemonFC; They use rebates to hide where the money goes in and out at.

23:20 DaemonFC; And to control OEM behavior.

23:20 DaemonFC; You do what they want, you get a bigger rebate.

23:21 DaemonFC; I wonder if there ever was a "loss of taste and smell" symptom of COVID or if they just said that to cover for food companies taking all of the seasonings out.

23:22 DaemonFC; Because I guarantee you that when I follow a recipe and cook something, you can taste it.
