beginning of new day, February 4

00:00 DaemonFC; Making something worse and more expensive at the same time is not really worth doing.

00:00 DaemonFC; As companies realize "AI" essentially brings no "value" because the notion that it will allow them to cut salary budgets, the entire bubble will fall over.

00:15 MinceR; tom cruise cars?

00:15 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: The Senate confirmed one of Biden's judges to the Court of International Trade. Lisa Wang, born in Beijing.

00:15 DaemonFC; It's nice to know we're putting the Red Chinese on courts handling International Trade issues.

00:16 DaemonFC; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Wang_(judge)

00:16 TR Bot; Lisa Wang (judge) - Wikipedia

00:16 DaemonFC; Wikipedia doesn't say whether she gave up her Chinese citizenship before taking her seat on the federal bench.

00:17 DaemonFC; That should really be a requirement, shouldn't it?

00:17 DaemonFC; https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/wang_sjq.pdf

00:20 DaemonFC; Unfortunately, I don't think there's a citizenship requirement for any federal office except the President and Vice-President.

00:20 DaemonFC; So you can have allegiances to hostile foreign governments and be in Congress, and that is what's going on with the Muslim terrorists that are in Congress right now.

00:34 DaemonFC; https://www.lakemchenryscanner.com/2024/02/03/3rd-lake-county-man-sentenced-to-10-years-in-prison-in-daytime-shootout-in-mchenry-where-over-50-shots-were-fired/

00:34 TR Bot; 3rd Lake County man sentenced to 10 years in prison in daytime shootout in McHenry where over 50 shots were fired

00:34 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^

00:34 DaemonFC; "A second suspect in the case, Davontae L. Newkum, 27, of North Chicago, was charged in September 2021 with aggravated discharge of a firearm, felon in possession of a firearm and multiple counts of unlawful use of a weapon."

00:34 DaemonFC; D. Newkum

00:34 DaemonFC; :/

00:34 DaemonFC; :)

00:34 DaemonFC; B-)

00:34 DaemonFC; :D

00:35 DaemonFC; That is an awesome last name though. NEWKUM

00:35 *macrohumanity has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

00:37 DaemonFC; They got in a shootout because they were jealous of that.

00:37 MinceR; :)

00:37 DaemonFC; At least that's what I think.

00:37 MinceR; Duke Newkum

00:38 DaemonFC; gemini://gemi.dev/cgi-bin/waffle.cgi/article?https%3A%2F%2Fwgntv.com%2Fbusiness%2Fwhy-you-may-owe-taxes-this-year-according-to-a-tax-expert%2F

00:38 DaemonFC; "Why do I owe taxes?"

00:39 DaemonFC; Because the government says if you don't pay for transgender reassignments, forever wars, and illegal immigrants that have come here to kill, rob, and rape, YOU go to jail?

00:54 DaemonFC; MinceR: I laughed at an episode of Beavis and Butt-Head where an INS (what we used to call immigration) agent says "Just dump him in Mexico and let the Federales sort it out."

00:54 DaemonFC; The US actually does do that sometimes.

00:54 DaemonFC; If someone is brown and speaks Spanish, we stick them on a deportation bus to Mexico even if we don't know that's where they're from.

00:54 *macrohumanity_ (~macrohumanity@dcs84rsrw6b3n.irc) has joined #techrights

00:54 DaemonFC; They're so sloppy that they've dumped US citizens on deportation buses in Mexico and they got off the bus and didn't even speak Spanish.

00:55 TR Bot; U.S. Citizen Wrongfully Deported to Mexico, Settles His Case Against the Federal Government | ACLU

00:56 DaemonFC; MinceR: They threw him over the border where he was homeless and ended up in a Mexican prison.

00:56 DaemonFC; Then settled with him for $175,000 for pain and suffering.

00:57 DaemonFC; https://edition.cnn.com/2023/02/26/us/undocumented-border-officer-cec/index.html

00:57 TR Bot; He deported thousands of people at the border, then learned he was undocumented | CNN

00:58 DaemonFC; Nazi collaborator learns of Jewish heritage, sent to Auschwitz.

00:58 DaemonFC; :P

00:59 TR News; From `babylon5.buetow.org` to `*.buetow.cloud` gemini://foo.zone/gemfeed/2024-02-04-from-babylon5.buetow.org-to-.cloud.gmi

00:59 DaemonFC; "It's unfair!" he said while being taken by the SS, "I've helped gas thousands of people for you! Why are you doing this to me? I'm one of you!"

00:59 MinceR; we had a few nazi party members find out they're jewish

00:59 MinceR; at least one of them changed their behavior drastically afterward

1 AM, February 4

01:00 schestowitz[TR]; fideath?

01:00 DaemonFC; Brandon Lobster calls me a Nazi. People throw that word around.

01:00 MinceR; jobbik

01:00 DaemonFC; It loses its meaning.

01:00 MinceR; (i call them Lobbik Oroszorszagert Mozgalom)

01:00 MinceR; (Movement of Lobbies for Russia)

01:01 MinceR; one of their members were found out to be an FSB agent or something like that

01:01 MinceR; or maybe just being directly funded by moscovia

01:01 *macrohumanity_ has quit (connection closed)

01:01 DaemonFC; I'm actually closer to US Libertarianism. I think the government should be basically neutral to its citizens.

01:01 DaemonFC; That's far from calling for death camps.

01:01 MinceR; i think the government should not exist

01:02 MinceR; we've been trying them for thousands of years, they never worked, and nobody has managed to propose a workable model for them

01:02 DaemonFC; MinceR: Some are much worse than others.

01:02 DaemonFC; That's about the only thing you can say about governments.

01:02 MinceR; sure

01:02 TR News; "I really like this hexcrawl sandbox generator. It's very approachable, clearly written, and straight forward something that will be easy to use. It describes a complete procedure for generating a sandbox, using lots of dice rolling and tables." gemini://consp.org/blog/2024/2024-02-03-sandbox-generator-by-atelier-clandestin.gmi

01:02 MinceR; no, i can say a lot of things about them

01:03 DaemonFC; MinceR: It's hilarious to hear a single party Democrat State that made it impossible for them to lose more than 30% of the legislative seats (effectively shutting down the elections) talking about democracy being threatened.

01:03 TR News; "The inside of the dust jacket is an adventure inspired by the module B4 The Lost City, The Lost City Sandbox." gemini://consp.org/blog/2024/2024-02-02-my-copy-of-knock-4-arrived.gmi

01:03 DaemonFC; And saying there's a threat of a government that is authoritarian and non-responsive to the public.

01:04 DaemonFC; When they are authoritarians who don't respond to the public.

01:04 TR News; "Over the past week and a half I've been simultaneously learning Go and writing a new Misfin client with a gemini frontend." gemini://bbs.geminispace.org/s/misfin/14631

01:04 DaemonFC; And further that you're lucky to have them even though they'll resort to punishing you through any means necessary for even filing to oppose them in an election only they can win.

01:05 DaemonFC; Like finding a car you've parked without a city sticker and saying you owe them $80,000 now.

01:05 TR News; "Skylab is a misfin client with a gemini frontend and an interface for sending and receiving misfin messages using any gemini client." gemini://satch.xyz/skylab/

01:05 DaemonFC; There was a town I lived in where an Independent filed to run against the Democrats on the town board.

01:06 DaemonFC; Suddenly he had the city in court trying to take his home because they started fining him for parking a car that didn't work and wasn't registered on his own property and it was up to $80,000 now and nobody informed him.

01:06 DaemonFC; MinceR: The "democracy" party. :)

01:06 MinceR; DaemonFC: i think your government will soon demonstrate that it can indeed become more authoritarian and non-responsive to the public

01:06 MinceR; also, it's not an accident that i put their name in quotes

01:07 DaemonFC; MinceR: He lives out in a relatively rural area. On a farm.

01:07 DaemonFC; Nearest neighbors a mile away.

01:07 DaemonFC; And they tried to take his house for parking a car where nobody could even see it from the road.

01:07 DaemonFC; :)

01:08 DaemonFC; The government is terrific, huh?

01:08 DaemonFC; They had to send someone from the government to come onto his property to start looking for violations like that, while he wasn't home.

01:09 DaemonFC; Then they say they did notify him that he risked being fined when nobody did it until he "owed" the government $80,000.

01:10 DaemonFC; There's someone I know who remodeled his house. It's worth a lot more than the tax assessor knows, but they suspected him and keep sending people out demanding to come in.

01:10 DaemonFC; They can't get a warrant so they keep pestering him and acting like he has to let them in, and they've been doing this for 20 years.

01:10 DaemonFC; And he still hasn't let them in.

01:10 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Like TV Licensing on steroids.

01:10 DaemonFC; :)

01:11 DaemonFC; They probably never will figure it out because he put his house in a trust and the trust pays the taxes, and as long as the trust doesn't sell it, they can't inspect it.

01:12 DaemonFC; He put it in the trust before remodeling it and not telling them.

01:12 DaemonFC; So when he leaves the trust to his son the house hasn't technically changed ownership and then his son can tell them to fuck off.

01:12 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^

01:13 DaemonFC; You could sell the trust, which owns the house, without selling the house.

01:16 MinceR; :)

01:18 DaemonFC; MinceR: This is like DeSantis vs. Disney where Disney made the Restrictive Covenant with the old board members the day before Ron DeSantis appointed people who say drinking water makes people gay to the board.

01:30 DaemonFC; MinceR: I might try CBD over this pain from the heterotopic ossification.

01:30 DaemonFC; I just don't want to go into a dispensary where most of the people are trash buying marijuana.

01:30 DaemonFC; :P

07:16 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2]: I'm applying for a passport.

07:16 DaemonFC; Had to go get my birth certificate and marriage license.

07:19 DaemonFC; I ended up with three birth certificates.

07:20 DaemonFC; One went off to Immigration and I gave up on ever getting it back, one went in the mail to Social Security when I lost my card, and I figured I wouldn't get it back, and then I sent $5 for another copy to the health department and got all three in the mail in one week. :P

07:22 DaemonFC; Shit, I'm glad I saw that.

07:22 DaemonFC; It says "last name of parent at parent's birth"

07:22 DaemonFC; I copied mom's name off my birth certificate then read that again.

07:39 DaemonFC; Oh that's nice. It asks for spouse name but unless you click on instructions it doesn't specify "Last, First, Middle"

07:39 DaemonFC; This is a nice form.

07:40 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^

07:45 DaemonFC; Hmm, might as well ask for the large book. Has more pages for visas and stamps and it's the same price.

07:50 DaemonFC; I can get the book and card for $30 more.

07:51 DaemonFC; The card lets me into Canada and Mexico via a land border.

07:51 DaemonFC; Without marking up my passport book.

08:18 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2]: Canada says that Mandy could come with me to Canada with a Green Card and his Philippines passport.

08:18 DaemonFC; Without an eTA or a visa.

08:19 DaemonFC; Having a US Green Card removes the need to get a visa or eTA.

08:30 DaemonFC; Pritzker will probably never explain why all the assault rifles didn't just disappear when he signed the bill.

08:30 DaemonFC; And why few actually registered any.

08:31 DaemonFC; I had an alert pop up on my FOID account saying if I had any I needed to register them, and there's a page they added to the system. I don't have any that count as "assault weapon" under the bill.

08:31 DaemonFC; I like basic and understated machines.

08:31 DaemonFC; You spray a revolver down with ballistol and scrub it and wipe it clean and it's good again.

08:32 DaemonFC; We need laws to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and idiots.

08:33 DaemonFC; They're failing miserably at this so the criminals have automatic weapons and shit and the idiots shoot themselves in the dick just playing with a gun, you know, not even cleaning it.

08:33 DaemonFC; There's no excuse to accidentally discharge a gun. All guns must be treated as if they are loaded and pointed away from you at all times, with hands off the trigger, unless you are planning to shoot something.

08:34 DaemonFC; I see people cleaning guns wrong.....sometimes, at the firing range.

08:34 DaemonFC; This is kind of scary. I've flagged down one of the owners before and said "That guy is going to kill someone. Can you ask him to leave or put me in a different area?"

08:35 DaemonFC; It was my dad that taught me to shoot.

08:35 DaemonFC; He has a .22 caliber rifle. Just a cheap one.

08:35 DaemonFC; Indiana isn't afraid of guns so there are public shooting ranges spread throughout the state.

08:35 DaemonFC; There's one near the reservoirs.

08:36 DaemonFC; You can just go put some coke cans or something down range and shoot at those if you want to. They have a big hill behind the target area so stray bullets don't travel and hit someone.

08:36 DaemonFC; So I think Indiana is doing this right.

08:36 DaemonFC; Children should learn respect for firearms at a young age.

08:37 DaemonFC; And most people should learn to shoot.

08:37 DaemonFC; STATE OF ILL is more like Japan, in theory, but only in theory.

08:38 DaemonFC; You have to prove you're not a nut or a criminal to get a FOID Card. You have to prove proficiency to get a conceal and carry endorsement on the FOID Card.

08:38 DaemonFC; But the problem is that regulates the people who will obey the law.

08:38 DaemonFC; And when you have thousands of lawbreakers who just buy out of state guns from someone who scratched the serials off, "Japan-style attitude" towards gun ownership doesn't work.

08:39 DaemonFC; You're spending all your effort and enforcement budget on the source of maybe 2-3% of your potential problem.

08:39 DaemonFC; It's very rare that a person with a FOID Card does a mass shooting or something because we've been very well vetted.

08:41 DaemonFC; Almost every single case of a mass shooting in this State was either a felon in possession, or in the case of Robert E. Crimo III, he had a FOID Card, but....he slipped through the cracks. What were the cracks? The police failed to report him to NICS when they were out twice removing knives and swords and dealing with his suicidal and homicidal threats.

08:41 DaemonFC; Then since this was not logged in NICS, and since his father signed for him to get a FOID Card, they gave him one.

08:41 DaemonFC; This was a failure of the police.

08:41 DaemonFC; And you almost have to wonder if it was something they knew was coming and allowed to happen.

08:42 DaemonFC; The government doesn't care that tragedies happen.

08:43 DaemonFC; It uses them to justify clamping down and taking freedoms and privacy away from people who aren't doing anything wrong.

23:32 imnotbis; schestowitz would love this because it's about GNOME and Wayland - I went to FOSDEM and made a GNOME developer talk about server side decorations. he said they're terrible and KDE also thinks they're terrible and I should ask a KDE developer about them because KDE hates them too despite implementing them. I did. The KDE developer said they're good and the GNOME way is stupid.
