beginning of new day, January 26

00:02 DaemonFC; MinceR: Car threw a code today.

00:02 DaemonFC; Went to the shop and they reset it and said they've seen that one a lot this week and they think it's just the temperature fluctuating between like -30 and 40 F.

00:02 DaemonFC; The car learns a baseline and then the weather comes up 70 degrees a couple days later and the car is liek WTF.

00:14 DaemonFC; I had to fend off Mandy's doctor again.

00:14 DaemonFC; They wanted him to get a bunch of vaccines. Most of which he's already had and some for things he's at no risk of getting.

00:14 DaemonFC; This is getting ridiculous.

00:16 DaemonFC; They wanted him to get a Shingles vaccine so I said this. "To be at risk of Shingles, which I have had, you must first have had the Chickenpox. Mandy has never had the Chickenpox and I vaccinated him for the Chickenpox. The current Shingles vaccine tends to put everyone in a lot of pain, especially with their arm swelling up, and the last one had to be taken off the market because it was giving people the Shingles. This is not medically appropriate at

00:16 DaemonFC; this time."

00:17 DaemonFC; You can't get Shingles without having had the Chickenpox, usually at least 20-30 years before you're at risk of it coming back as Shingles.

00:17 MinceR; Kraft Shingles

00:19 DaemonFC; They get money from insurance for jabbing everyone that goes in there.

00:19 DaemonFC; It's damned sloppy.

00:22 DaemonFC; MinceR: I told someone at the Health Department "You guys had your fun being Pritzkers brownshirts during COVID and I think it went to some people's heads around here. This is America and we have this thing called Informed Consent."

00:23 MinceR; do you, though?

00:23 DaemonFC; Yeah.

00:24 DaemonFC; MinceR: The fines they levied at businesses that eventually reopened anyway got dismissed.

00:24 DaemonFC; Nobody actually got fined by the cops for not wearing their mask.

00:24 DaemonFC; Nobody got in trouble for coming outside "without a reason".

00:25 DaemonFC; MinceR: An experiment to see who would do it despite there being no law.

00:25 DaemonFC; That's always how it begins, right?

00:26 DaemonFC; MinceR: There's a very general "fine for violating a public health order" but it's never been used like this.

00:26 DaemonFC; The legislative intent is, you have one person running around with tuberculosis who won't take the medicine or something.

00:26 DaemonFC; So the law empowers that person to be detained, after a judge signs off on it by a case by case basis.

00:27 DaemonFC; The Health Department can't just order everyone to stay in their homes and all businesses to shut down because of a nasty cold going around.

00:49 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Remember when I said I would smog test my car the first day it was eligible.

00:49 DaemonFC; It passed on the 2nd and the engine light came back today.

00:50 DaemonFC; I ran it by the shop and they think it's related to the crazy temperature fluctuations outside.

00:50 schestowitz[TR]; biab

00:50 DaemonFC; They said they've been seeing an unusually high number of this code this week.

00:50 schestowitz[TR]; give me few mins

01:10 DaemonFC; If they planned to obey laws, they wouldn't be there for raping a child.

01:12 DaemonFC; Meanwhile, we can see they usually obey laws from 8 pages in the computer about their priors.

01:12 DaemonFC; Half of which they didn't show up in traffic court and nothing happened.

01:13 DaemonFC; MinceR: Legally, the same presumption of innocence exists on your 100th offense as on your first.

01:13 TR News; "The devil" is in the details; THESE ARE NOT "BLIZZARD" layoffs but a blizzard of layoffs inside "Microsoft proper", mostly media and Xbox. They cover their behinds by making it seem like culls in an external entity.

01:13 DaemonFC; In reality, the prosecutor is in there bringing up everything you've ever been in trouble for.

01:13 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: MSM says economy booming

01:13 schestowitz[TR]; great news

01:13 schestowitz[TR]; HEY HI, DaemonFC

01:13 schestowitz[TR]; and good morning

01:14 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: They want to keep interest rates higher for a while.

01:14 DaemonFC; Otherwise they wouldn't have faked this.

01:14 DaemonFC; It gives them cover to not start cutting for at least another few months.

01:14 schestowitz[TR]; I agreer on boom

01:14 schestowitz[TR]; not on HEY HI

01:14 schestowitz[TR]; it goes boom

01:14 schestowitz[TR]; and xi-putin lol

01:14 schestowitz[TR]; "where is your GDP?"

01:14 schestowitz[TR]; "it's in AP and BillPR"

01:14 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: The banks don't mind higher rates.

01:15 schestowitz[TR]; Microsoft = 3 trillion

01:15 schestowitz[TR]; layoffs make it more "valuable{"

01:15 DaemonFC; Neither do bond investors like Warren Buffet.

01:15 schestowitz[TR]; somehow

01:15 schestowitz[TR]; those rates screw people in debt

01:15 DaemonFC; People criticized him for keeping so much in T-bills from Berkshire's cash holdings.

01:15 schestowitz[TR]; like gulagboy

01:15 schestowitz[TR]; vroom vroom debt motherf**er

01:16 DaemonFC; It makes all the bank loans more profitable.

01:16 DaemonFC; The banks own the Fed.

01:17 DaemonFC; It's not a government agency.

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; what i noticed is

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; the rates stayed high

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; BUT

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; not for ordinary savers

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; they shaved some off

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; to improve their "margins"

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; so mortgage slaves pay theee same

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; but savers lose like 1%

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; who pockers the diff?

01:20 schestowitz[TR]; banksters

01:25 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Someone here got a letter from "Secure Choice". A new State law requires employers without a 401(k) to put money for that worker in a "State account".

01:26 DaemonFC; From the State that brought you public pension that the State stole 87 cents on the dollar from comes "retirement plans" for private sector workers!

01:26 DaemonFC; MinceR: Secure Choice. Much Wow! Very Secure! Much Wow!

01:27 schestowitz[TR]; ask garrett

01:27 schestowitz[TR]; about securer

01:27 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Meh, you can still get a decent rate on 9 month terms.

01:28 DaemonFC; It's clear that they want to stop paying these rates ASAP.

01:28 DaemonFC; So they only offer them on a "wait and see" basis of 6-9 months.

01:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: They want deposit money but don't want to commit to paying high rates for years.

01:30 DaemonFC; If rates are still high in 9 months, roll it over and we'll try again.

01:30 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: I don't know how things work in the UK, but here anyone can buy T-Bills.

01:31 DaemonFC; So if the rates on those are higher than CDs at the end of the 9 months you may just want to loan it out to the government on a short term basis.

01:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Whatever's going on or not going on with the car, at least I got it smog tested before this started.

01:35 DaemonFC; I can drive it a few years even if it's not worth fixing.

01:35 DaemonFC; If you get pulled over with a plate you can't get renewed that's a crime and because I'm white the court won't just drop it and move on.

01:35 DaemonFC; Or not do anything if I fail to appear.

01:35 DaemonFC; Like it would for "some people".

01:36 DaemonFC; So at least I have a while before then.

01:36 DaemonFC; That is odd that the light would come on "because of temperature fluctuations" this week.

04:08 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: They're closing down a lot of stores.

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; seemd so

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; i assume

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; 1) make list of shops

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; 2) asses profit/loss/risk

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; 3) consider chance of turnaround

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; 4) cull the ones that lose

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; they don't care about the jobs

04:08 schestowitz[TR]; they don't care about the local community

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; all they care about is "bottom line"

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; so that's LateStageCapitttalism for ya

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; they come to town

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; knock over the ma and pa stores

04:09 DaemonFC; There was no chance of turnaround in south Chicago.

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; then shut down

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; leaving nothinggg

04:09 schestowitz[TR]; except worse

04:09 DaemonFC; They threatened that the ones on the north side are next if things don't shape up.

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; so people drive further

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; great for the climate

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; even the workers

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; more commute time

04:10 DaemonFC; Target is doing better in Chicago than Walmart is.

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; i worked from home since 2007

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; rianne since 2013

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; and can walk to work

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; if work is near you, that is good also

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; a short job

04:10 schestowitz[TR]; hog

04:11 schestowitz[TR]; jog

04:11 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: They had a huge layoff in 2016 according to this chart.

04:12 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: The retreat is from cities with a lot of minorities where they're having lots of shoplifting.

04:12 DaemonFC; Few people have money to shop there.

04:13 DaemonFC; So they just pull out and leave an empty Walmart and 400-500 people lose their job.

04:13 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Even in 2008, they only closed two stores.

04:13 DaemonFC; They've been averaging at least a dozen or more per year since 2016.

04:13 TR News; Microsoft says 9% in gaming laid off, so in 2024 it'll probably be 20% or more. If 20% of all divisions are laid off, that's over 40,000 Microsoft workers.

04:14 DaemonFC; What does that tell you?

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; i can tell you this

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; walmart used to own asda (uk)

04:14 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: This is the KMart-ification of Walmart.

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; not anymore

04:14 DaemonFC; I just don't think anyone sees it yet.

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; they keep some moles in the board

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; but sold it

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; asda struggles to make money

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; even though it is big

04:14 schestowitz[TR]; you cccan look that up

04:14 DaemonFC; KMart started of like this.

04:15 schestowitz[TR]; i am not mmmaking that up

04:15 DaemonFC; Insisting that it was just a fraction of stores that had gone bad.

04:15 schestowitz[TR]; and i see a lot of shoplifting

04:15 DaemonFC; And if they trimmed the worst ones they would be okay.

04:15 schestowitz[TR]; the managers there admit losses

04:15 schestowitz[TR]; and they try to use HR to squeeze more out of staff

04:15 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: This "closing stores down" thing is a terminal rot.

04:15 schestowitz[TR]; to the point where there are STRIKES

04:16 DaemonFC; Yes, they are trying to cut hours and then that makes new problems.

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; worse

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; not just that

04:16 DaemonFC; Because your employees are there to do things that need done so you can have sales.

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; they don't wait to pay benefits, inc. holidays and pensions

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; even lunch breaks

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; they resort to scabs

04:16 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Walmart got rid of Holiday Pay a long time ago.

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; or people who fall below entitlement threshold

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; while putting people co

04:16 DaemonFC; Now it's just "store closes, get paid less that week"

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; on contracts

04:16 schestowitz[TR]; so there are no obligations

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; no legal ones anyway

04:17 DaemonFC; When I was there you got Holiday Pay equal to your average hours worked.

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; some are made to resign

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; due to abuse

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; so their "contact" will "end"

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; and no severance

04:17 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: They said that they increased wages.

04:17 DaemonFC; A lot of that is not true.

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; or overhiring to get people to compete

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; then picking the "winners"

04:17 DaemonFC; They're still only a couple bucks over minimum wage.

04:17 schestowitz[TR]; of the rat race

04:17 DaemonFC; And they ended Holiday Pay and Bonuses.

04:18 DaemonFC; So now perfect attendance doesn't get you the $500 bonus anymore each quarter.

04:18 DaemonFC; They complied with the minimum wage law by saying oh look, we took pie from you and gave it to people who don't even show up.

04:19 DaemonFC; "I'm not taking pie from you, I'm GIVING PIE to me!"

04:19 DaemonFC; "I'm not taking pie from you, I'm GIVING PIE to me!"

04:19 DaemonFC; "I'm not taking pie from you, I'm GIVING PIE to me!"

04:19 DaemonFC; That's like that Ontario troon board.

04:20 schestowitz[TR]; in tesco uk they do "aldi price match"

04:20 DaemonFC; Harassing that small business owner on behalf of the lobster.

04:20 schestowitz[TR]; selling probably at a loss

04:20 schestowitz[TR]; select items

04:20 schestowitz[TR]; because the german chains like aldi and lidio reportedly clobber them

04:20 schestowitz[TR]; pulling some clients over, for purchases beyond just foods

04:20 schestowitz[TR]; owing to low prices

04:20 schestowitz[TR]; also in homeware

04:21 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Aldi has most of what you need in there anyway.

04:21 DaemonFC; And it's not all banged up and rotten.

04:21 DaemonFC; Shelves a mess.

04:21 DaemonFC; Cops standing there with guns looking at you while you shop.

04:21 DaemonFC; Fort Walmart

04:21 schestowitz[TR]; we went there this week

04:21 schestowitz[TR]; aaldi

04:22 schestowitz[TR]; rianne remembers 46 prior to that

04:22 DaemonFC; Everything goes up, Roy. We all float down here.

04:22 DaemonFC; All of us.

04:22 schestowitz[TR]; soy milk unsweeted was 47p iirc

04:22 schestowitz[TR]; even a few years ago, now 59p

04:23 schestowitz[TR]; the one with sugar used to be same price

04:23 schestowitz[TR]; now more

04:23 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: I got the medical bill from the doctor.

04:23 schestowitz[TR]; salad up by a lot

04:23 DaemonFC; For the flu thing last week.

04:23 schestowitz[TR]; and coffee by a LOT

04:23 schestowitz[TR]; the bag that cost 1.29 when the pandemic started

04:27 schestowitz[TR]; and it might seem raysist

04:27 schestowitz[TR]; he contributed to the finishing of the company

04:27 DaemonFC; Does he wear overalls and say "Come on, Hal! Just gimme the damn guns!"?

04:27 schestowitz[TR]; but it was uglier

04:27 schestowitz[TR]; as they had stolen from us even more than a decade earlier

04:27 schestowitz[TR]; when there was still money in the bank

04:28 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: $328 to see a Physician's assistant for 10 minutes about the flu and get a flu test.

04:28 DaemonFC; Then they faxed over a prescription for Tamiflu.

04:28 schestowitz[TR]; can you challenge this?

04:28 schestowitz[TR]; Physician's assistant

04:28 DaemonFC; Insurance "adjusted it" by -$155.

04:28 schestowitz[TR]; the OTHER "PA"

04:29 DaemonFC; Insurance paid $154.

04:29 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: move to the uk

04:29 schestowitz[TR]; we are still not this evil

04:29 schestowitz[TR]; i am not 'afraid' to see a GP

04:29 DaemonFC; Patient pays $20.

04:29 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: 2 bucks a min

04:29 schestowitz[TR]; for some assistant

04:29 schestowitz[TR]; typing the keyboard

04:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: $175 all told.

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; how much does he or she change for sex?

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; 1 buck a minute?

04:30 DaemonFC; Between what insurance actually paid and our copay.

04:30 DaemonFC; $17.50 per minute.

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; insurance is not a discount

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; you buy insurance

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; it is part of the scam

04:30 DaemonFC; To get swabbed for flu by a physician's assistant.

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; so you are missing the point

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; your salary goes to this "plan'

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; and it's not enough

04:30 schestowitz[TR]; the 20 is the "penlty"

04:31 schestowitz[TR]; for not going "far enough"

04:31 DaemonFC; They say it "encourages you to be responsible" in your use of medical care.

04:31 schestowitz[TR]; china is the same

04:31 schestowitz[TR]; as you might know

04:31 schestowitz[TR]; a prof friend of mine explained

04:32 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Don't abuse that sweet sweet shoulder X-Ray now.

04:32 DaemonFC; Look at him. In there getting high on shoulder surgery.

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; he routinely visited chna

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; they have this fee

04:32 DaemonFC; Abusing medicine.

04:32 DaemonFC; :P

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; in the nhs they charge about 9 (more more now) pounds for drugs/prescruption

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; unless you get exemption

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; even for very cheap meds

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; and genetics

04:32 schestowitz[TR]; it's a form of 'tax'

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; it used to be about 5 pounds, iirc

04:33 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: It was $15 for Tamiflu with the insurance.

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: tip for you

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; work

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; w

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; save

04:33 DaemonFC; It was going to be like $20-something if I used a GoodRX coupon, so I just used the insurance.

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; keep national insurance

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; get the exemption

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; then you get nhs de facto free

04:33 DaemonFC; What is the "exemption"?

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; good question

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; i am n ot sure

04:33 schestowitz[TR]; who is eligible

04:34 schestowitz[TR]; they deccide

04:34 DaemonFC; If you pay a premium it gets better?

04:34 schestowitz[TR]; maybe

04:34 schestowitz[TR]; but if it is not for genetic, you might be out of luck

04:34 schestowitz[TR]; if they pull that away

04:34 schestowitz[TR]; generics are... cheap

04:34 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: HIP Plus has a premium. Where you get additional benefits.

HIP Basic does not provide coverage for vision, dental or chiropractic services, bariatric surgery or Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMJ). HIP Basic also has fewer visits to physical, speech and occupational therapists.

04:36 DaemonFC; > Copayments are required for most health services including visiting the doctor, filling a prescription and staying in the hospital. These copayments may range from $4 to $8 per doctor visit or prescription filled and may be as high as $75 per hospital stay.

04:36 DaemonFC; > You could pay more on HIP Basic if you have many doctor visits, prescriptions or hospital stays.

04:36 DaemonFC; ---

04:36 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: cheaper to be healthy

04:36 schestowitz[TR]; and stay healthy

04:36 schestowitz[TR]; eat well

04:36 DaemonFC; It also costs $100 to use the ER with Basic.

04:36 schestowitz[TR]; stress low

04:37 schestowitz[TR]; chat with people you like

04:37 DaemonFC; It's designed so that the State offloads expenses either way.

04:37 schestowitz[TR]; out there there can be many causes for unforeseen srress

04:37 DaemonFC; You pay a premium or you pay more to use a shittier plan.

04:37 schestowitz[TR]; it is contagious

04:37 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> It also costs $100 to use the ER with Basic.

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; sad to say

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; here is what happened

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; my dad was threatened by peers

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; for not taking his "jab"'''

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; so he took one dose

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; then he could honestly say

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; "i took it"

04:39 schestowitz[TR]; didn't show up for the second

04:40 schestowitz[TR]; then i sent him liiinks

04:40 schestowitz[TR]; to show it is connected to heart failure

04:40 schestowitz[TR]; and he replied sarcastically

04:40 schestowitz[TR]; my brother also turned down those jabs

04:40 schestowitz[TR]; all of them

04:40 schestowitz[TR]; and lied about it when people asked

04:40 schestowitz[TR]; to be on the "safe" side

04:41 schestowitz[TR]; peer pressure was immense years ago

04:42 DaemonFC; They were leaning on Mandy today to get all sorts of vaccines. Ones he's already had and never needs again. Ones he's not due for a booster for until two years from now. One that the CDC doesn't recommend for people under 50.

04:42 DaemonFC; They have to get their money you know. :P

04:42 DaemonFC; I told them what would happen if they gave him any shots in there.

04:43 DaemonFC; I told them "I don't know what kind of trash you're used to dealing with, but make no mistake, there will be consequences."

04:43 DaemonFC; They didn't give him any shots.

04:44 DaemonFC; The doctor didn't believe that I got him vaccinated for Hepatitis A/B though so she titered him.

04:46 DaemonFC; This is risk without any benefit.

04:46 DaemonFC; Shingles isn't just something that a healthy person in their 30s "gets" with no history of the Chickenpox.

04:47 DaemonFC; And he's been vaccinated for Chickenpox.

04:48 schestowitz[TR]; Shingles impacted many old people i know in recent years

04:48 schestowitz[TR]; did not check why

04:48 DaemonFC; They twisted his arm like Shingles is just around the corner unless they whack him up on something that'll fuck up his arm all week and make $400 for them.

04:48 schestowitz[TR]; and why now

04:48 schestowitz[TR]; Shingles are, in modern days, an old people's problem

04:48 schestowitz[TR]; Shingles impact everyone

04:48 DaemonFC; It does not.

04:48 schestowitz[TR]; but not equally

04:49 DaemonFC; It's caused by Varicella Zoster.

04:49 schestowitz[TR]; the immune response kicks in

04:49 schestowitz[TR]; and meds exist

04:49 DaemonFC; You'd remember if you had Chickenpox before.

04:49 schestowitz[TR]; you can see it

04:50 DaemonFC; Why are they so skeptical that I had him properly vaccinated for Hepatitis A/B?

04:51 DaemonFC; I wonder if this is because of their paternalistic attitude and their "usual clientele".

04:51 DaemonFC; Last time, Mandy walked into the bathroom and there was a big fat black lady standing there getting a urine sample and he saw her cooch.

04:51 DaemonFC; LOL

04:52 DaemonFC; Worse than dad beating a dog in the backyard and pouring banana ketchup on it I'm sure.

04:53 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: As much as it saddens me to say this, Indiana's counties don't even run doctor's offices in their health department.

04:53 DaemonFC; So they have even less than this.

04:54 DaemonFC; I go to the doctor about 3-4 times a year.

04:54 DaemonFC; My insurance is a lot better.

04:55 DaemonFC; I'm following my doctor up into another State when she leaves this practice.

04:55 DaemonFC; The hospital system is falling apart here and is about to be taken over by the county in an "emergency" capacity.

04:55 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Some hospital network bought it out in July and stopped paying the doctors.

04:56 DaemonFC; Half of them have left.

04:56 DaemonFC; My guess is they bought it to put it in distress so the county would have to pay more than they got it for.

04:57 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: Here's the logic.

04:57 DaemonFC; Buy it cheap. Create a crisis.

04:57 DaemonFC; Government has to pay almost any price or there's no hospital for miles and miles (also their doctor network which covers the entire city!), creating a political disaster.

04:59 DaemonFC; "Hindenburg alleged that when the Opera browser continued losing users (due to competition from Google and Apple), the company shifted gears to building mobile apps that provided predatory short-term loans. The interest rates on those loans ranged from 365-876% per year, and loan terms from 7-29 days. Opera also falsely advertised longer loan terms and lower interest rates in the app descriptions, because the Google Play Store had rules against

04:59 DaemonFC; predatory loan services."

04:59 DaemonFC; SAY WHAT!?

5 AM, January 26

05:00 DaemonFC; The service would then start sending threatening messages to the user's contacts when a borrower was late on their payments. The issue was also covered by local media prior to Hindenburg's report.

05:09 DaemonFC; The neighbor caught me the other day and I played it off like the knob was sticking because it was so cold.

05:09 DaemonFC; Before I check the door, I check to make sure that both of my cats are inside the house where I can see them.

05:10 DaemonFC; Then after I check the door, I compulsively stare at it for a minute so I can tell myself later it is closed and locked.

05:10 DaemonFC; I sleep with a gun on my nightstand.

05:11 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> I check to make sure my door is locked before I leave the house. 15 or 20 times.

05:11 DaemonFC; It's unloaded and trigger locked, but I have it set up so I can unlock the trigger and load the gun in about 10 seconds.

05:11 schestowitz[TR]; rianne had that with the light switch

05:11 schestowitz[TR]; also, breakin via door is not the only issue

05:12 schestowitz[TR]; unless you are in a basement

05:12 schestowitz[TR]; the windows are easier

05:12 schestowitz[TR]; you throw something heavy at them

05:12 schestowitz[TR]; people look outside, maybe phone the cop or come over

05:13 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: I have locks on my bedroom door too.

05:13 DaemonFC; It's only meant to slow someone down and make them create even more noise while I'm loading the gun.

05:13 DaemonFC; The idea is that there are barriers between me and whoever is in my house.

05:13 schestowitz[TR]; state of ILL

05:13 DaemonFC; It will take time and create a lot of noise to get to me, and by the time they do, I'm ready for them.

07:27 schestowitz[TR]; MSFT probably still loses loads of money there

07:32 DaemonFC; I might watch Blade Runner again. I'll admit I did not like the movie when I first saw it, but it was the original version, edited for runtime, on the Sci-Fi channel.

07:33 DaemonFC; So it didn't really make a lot of sense and there were commercial interruptions.

07:34 DaemonFC; The commecials ruin the pace of the movie and then you have people at the network cutting into the movie and returning whenever they feel like it.

07:34 DaemonFC; It was terrible when we had Cable TV.

07:34 DaemonFC; So why is everyone trying to go back to that with streaming disservices that cost money AND have ads?

07:35 DaemonFC; I mean, we had Cable and we just had to deal with it because the Internet wasn't fast enough to download movies and you could only rent movies and copy them to blank tapes so quickly from the rental store.

07:37 DaemonFC; A newly released VHS might cost over $20 and that's over $20 in the 1990s, so you're talking probably at least $45-50 today just for one tape. So almost everyone in the country just got in the car and rented tapes overnight for $2.50 and copied them to a blank tape for maybe another $3.

07:37 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: I still don't have "Crunchyroll" and I would have Crunchyroll if it had everything on it and I could save a copy.

07:38 DaemonFC; DRM creates an impediment to business. It creates an incentive for your customers to not do business with you.

07:38 DaemonFC; It does not slow piracy down at all.

07:38 DaemonFC; They might as well just allow people to download copies.

07:39 DaemonFC; They'd make more money than they do now because BitTorrent would collapse overnight. They'd kill it like they've been trying to for 20 years.

07:39 DaemonFC; And they could do that in less than a week if they got together and let people download anything they wanted.

07:53 DaemonFC; "The U.N. with its byzantine bureaucracy, foreignness, and accommodation of democrats and autocrats alike has long been a low-hanging fruit for political aspirants seeking a guaranteed applause line. In 1996, the Republican presidential front-runner, Bob Dole, routinely mocked the then-Egyptian U.N. secretary-general by stretching out the syllable of his name, Booooutros Booooutros-Ghali, while assuring American voters he would never yield

07:53 DaemonFC; sovereignty to the foreign statesman. Dole lost the election, but he reveled in the enthusiastic response his insults elicited from voters."

07:56 TR Bot; Techrights Unqualified Charlatan, Without Interest in Real Security (From Aurora Innovation Inc, Previously Google and Red Hat) is Rattling Sabers

07:57 DaemonFC; The reality is that there are ups and downs in terms of the view of the U.S. internationally, and at the moment, the U.S. is taking a hit for its position as it relates to the war, Yeo added. But the war shall end and at some point well all move onto the next crisis and the U.S. and the U.N. will still be there.

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; spoiler

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; isis (buffy) offered herself

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; for sex

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; to men

07:57 DaemonFC; I stand by what I said. It's unfortunate that every inch of Gaza can't just be razed all at once.

07:57 DaemonFC; A clean break.

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; some took the bait

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; some did not

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; later on "YOU ARE RAPIST"

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; then

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; "I AM MAN!!"

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; "I AM THEY"

07:57 schestowitz[TR]; "stop talking about what I did!!

07:58 DaemonFC; Best to just stay away from people who have tells.

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; "U R DEADNAMING"

07:58 DaemonFC; That's what I say.

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; then to everyone in twitter

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; "DEPLATFORM THIS PERSON!!!!"

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; "my name is "lucruft now"

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; "I AM CALLED AFTER COMPUTER GAME CRAP"

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; "u misgenderme"

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; "I DO NOT EVEN HAVE A GENDER!!"

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; this is the gulagbopy shack

07:58 schestowitz[TR]; total nutcases

07:59 schestowitz[TR]; and people who take off their clothes

07:59 schestowitz[TR]; and theey themselves at guys

07:59 schestowitz[TR]; then everyone is "rapist"

07:59 schestowitz[TR]; "he took advanage"

07:59 schestowitz[TR]; "i was just like.... half naked"

8 AM, January 26

08:00 DaemonFC; The police always lean on people who are complaining about a significant other to throw in a false rape allegation.

08:00 DaemonFC; It makes the job easier for the prosecutor later.

08:01 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: You'll find that the cops don't care what's true.

08:01 DaemonFC; They just care what saves them from work.

08:02 DaemonFC; For every cop that turns off his body camera and kills someone.

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; cops are dangerous because

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; low paid

08:03 DaemonFC; For each cop that tortures people into confessing.

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; no pride in the job

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; sometimes racist

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; often lazy

08:03 DaemonFC; There's 100 that will never be dealt with who are much more insidious.

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; and having views on groups

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; so there is bias pre-built

08:03 DaemonFC; Because they operate in a way where nobody will ever see a smoking gun.

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; when you appear on the scene, as a cop, there is alrrready bias

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; i have a friend who is black and stopped some criminal

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; sat on him till police came

08:03 schestowitz[TR]; the cops attacked my friend

08:04 schestowitz[TR]; who stopped the criminal

08:04 schestowitz[TR]; and had done nothing wrong

08:04 DaemonFC; I stopped a criminal and sat on him until the police came.

08:04 schestowitz[TR]; he was of the "wrong"' colour

08:04 schestowitz[TR]; in manchester

08:04 DaemonFC; Luckily although they investigated both of us, he's the one going on trial next month.

08:04 schestowitz[TR]; ah, your ex

08:04 schestowitz[TR]; mjg was a victim of DV

08:04 DaemonFC; I knew when they demanded to take pictures of my hands they were seeing if I bruised him by punching him or something. No bruises on the knuckles.

08:04 schestowitz[TR]; he said

08:05 DaemonFC; Me, hurt very badly.

08:05 DaemonFC; Him, not hurt at all.

08:05 DaemonFC; They investigated me quickly and cleared me of any wrongdoing.

08:05 schestowitz[TR]; sounds like pseudoscience

08:05 schestowitz[TR]; tyhe knuckle thhhing

08:05 DaemonFC; I specifically avoided striking him back because I knew they would likely arrest both of us when they got there.

08:06 DaemonFC; It would make it impossible to tell who the victim was if there were any marks on him, so I subdued him and waited for the police.

08:06 DaemonFC; It was terrifying because he was trying to get back up so he could continue hurting me.

08:07 DaemonFC; And I saw this madness in his eyes.

08:07 DaemonFC; Like he was going to kill me and run before I could call 911.

08:08 DaemonFC; So while I was injured I was able to restrain him and call 911 and keep him subdued until they got there.

08:08 DaemonFC; He tried to say I attacked him but he was unharmed.

08:08 DaemonFC; So it was obviously a lie.

08:08 schestowitz[TR]; liar, too

08:08 schestowitz[TR]; sorry for the joke, but

08:08 schestowitz[TR]; here is the gulagboy modus

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; which he shares with his parner

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; you know rishi sunak?

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; he raped me

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; if he denies it, that's a lia

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; if he said weee never met, he lies again

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; just proof that he is immoral

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; and i am a woman

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; if you don't believe me, you are a transphobe

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; and a "nazi"

08:09 schestowitz[TR]; if you are a women, a "teft"

08:10 DaemonFC; I think you mean TERF

08:10 schestowitz[TR]; always believe the woman (me)

08:10 schestowitz[TR]; that's what they do to people

08:10 schestowitz[TR]; you have to accept insanity and lies

08:10 schestowitz[TR]; while they strip naked in front of high-profile men

08:10 schestowitz[TR]; and then try to tear them down

08:10 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: yes, it was a typo

08:10 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: You may have noticed that I'm not "close" to any trannies.

08:10 schestowitz[TR]; and they are still at it

08:10 DaemonFC; It's because they're literally all like this.

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; now gulagboy does 'toots" about tape

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; *rape

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; someone told him somethinhg

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; so he knows "100%" it's true

08:11 DaemonFC; It's not because they disgust or horrify me.

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; he was not a witness

08:11 DaemonFC; It's because they're toxic people.

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; maybe it is true

08:11 DaemonFC; They're the victim of everything and everyone.

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; but this is how those people work and think

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; accuse people of rape

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; in public

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; based on hearsay

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; whiel buffy strips naked in front of men

08:11 schestowitz[TR]; it's in court documents

08:12 schestowitz[TR]; she is connected to graveley

08:12 schestowitz[TR]; and nat friendman

08:12 schestowitz[TR]; who allegedly shows up naked in parties

08:12 schestowitz[TR]; appelbaum lived with graveley

08:12 DaemonFC; Why?

08:12 schestowitz[TR]; attention deficit?

08:12 schestowitz[TR]; if you lose yoiur marbles

08:12 schestowitz[TR]; then delete your name

08:13 schestowitz[TR]; and impose censorship

08:13 schestowitz[TR]; on what you did

08:13 schestowitz[TR]; start all over

08:13 DaemonFC; I mean why would Applebaum live with him.

08:13 schestowitz[TR]; sharing space

08:13 schestowitz[TR]; no idea why exactly

08:13 DaemonFC; This is why you don't want a roommate.

08:13 DaemonFC; If you're lucky they'll just be weird.

08:14 *danse-nr3 (~danse@151.57.0.37) has joined #techrights

08:14 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: I don't go around screaming HOMOPHOBE at _everyone_. There are some people who are.

08:15 DaemonFC; But generally people assume based on what the "usual" situation is.

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; old:

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz-pi3> today rianne and i checked gulagboy's twitter account

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz-pi3> this suggested he had gone insane

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz-pi3> mental problems

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz-pi3> no uni should let him lecture on things he lies about

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> His baseline is insanity: he is a sociopath. However there very well might

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> be additional problems on top of that foundation. No wonder he is steered

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> into attacking FOSS projects

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> I'm concerned that most universities have become peddlers of fraud and snake-oil

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> in regards to computing. Here there is not a single school left in which

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> one can learn actual ICT, as far as I can tell. Hence the founding of Hive

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> but that's not a university and is just a feeder for Supercell.

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> yes, many are trainng centres

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz-pi3> aws etc.

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> So if the situation is even remotely similar over there, it is not a surprise

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> that they pay him to lie.

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> If even training centers. Most don't even have hands on work. So neither

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> theory nor hands-on, what's left other than bullshit?

08:15 DaemonFC; So if you say you're married, people will say "Oh, does your wife want an eye exam too?"

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: some people are "HOMOPHOBES"

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; and you an shout "HOMOPHOBE" at them

08:15 DaemonFC; Or if you say "My spouse is in surgery." They say, "Oh, what's she having done?"

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; same for jew haters like Ontario Criminal

08:15 schestowitz[TR]; but you need not to overuse the labels like "HOMOPHOBE"

08:16 schestowitz[TR]; i bet you mjg was a HOMOPHOBE in cambridge

08:16 schestowitz[TR]; as an adult

08:16 schestowitz[TR]; and now hide behind his beard

08:16 schestowitz[TR]; who may be having an actual beard now

08:16 schestowitz[TR]; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beard_(companion)

08:16 TR Bot; Beard (companion) - Wikipedia

08:16 DaemonFC; Well, Lobsta is a homophobe and a racist, and a lot of other things.

08:17 schestowitz[TR]; it's "OK"

08:17 schestowitz[TR]; "I am autistic"

08:17 schestowitz[TR]; "I am allowed"

08:17 schestowitz[TR]; "i am also trans"

08:17 schestowitz[TR]; "do not criticise me"

08:17 DaemonFC; Like most narcissists, it only cares if you're a "TRANSPHOBE" allegedly while Lobsta is like 6-7 nasty things all at once.

08:17 schestowitz[TR]; "i don't understand when i do illegal stuff"

08:17 schestowitz[TR]; canada: no comment

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; Ontario Criminal Lozza is a "TRANSPHOBE" maker

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; just goes around

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; being "herself"

08:18 DaemonFC; "I would like to redact that statement as I was psychotic due to cannabis at the time!"

08:18 DaemonFC; :D

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; and people become "TRANSPHOBE"

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; like cops and courts

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; just seeing how lozza behavesss

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; and sadly kaniini failed to see all that

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; and believed lies

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; lozza was banned as a man

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; lozza was banned as a woman

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; for abusive behavious

08:18 schestowitz[TR]; nothing changed

08:19 schestowitz[TR]; you can come back with fewer body parts

08:19 schestowitz[TR]; and still be banned

08:19 schestowitz[TR]; not because of genitals

08:19 schestowitz[TR]; a faulty brain is not a genital

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; same for the whole ilk

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; and its ringleaders in particular

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; mjg is one of the ones formerly manning twitter

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; until musKSA took over

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; put an end to it

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; prooomoted worse crap

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; some fascist stuff

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; old:

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> Accusing people of bestiality at random seems to be pretty much like something mjg59_ would do.

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; debian might wish to know what sort of microsoft mole is allowed indoors, a Conference Pervert

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; i already had had amicable correspondence with thhe Debian Project Leader

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> GULAG is in here too

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> It stands to reason he'd make a sockpuppet account to say crazy things and not take any responsibility for it

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> I ignored it.

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> If he wants to speak to me he can do it as Matthew Garrett.

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> I'm pretty sure it's him. Do we know for sure?

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; i am in irc almost 24/7 and remember what this sock said. Only him could say/know those things, IMHO. It all comes back to me now.

08:20 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> I figured it was likely. He's got some serious loose screws.

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; he hates Conference Pervert

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; i will tell you why

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; his partner at least

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; you can get the court document

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; the Conference Pervert is buffy

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; sarah michelle

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; now called after video game lunacy

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; she would get hald naked aaaat events

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; in front of men

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; esp. high-profile well known ones

08:21 schestowitz[TR]; this is like epstein territory

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; to offer herself to en

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; and then also punch men

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; and wait for them to do something

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; then you are the victim of violence by men

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; and all men who do sec or encryption are raopuists

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; or something to that effect

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; except gulagboy

08:22 schestowitz[TR]; who has no creds in security

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; just an imposter

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; everyone is rapist

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; except the "missing out" guy

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; who says people should look for sex at events

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; the way his partner did

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; it's in court documents

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; we made backups of those

08:23 schestowitz[TR]; there'sss no turning back

08:23 DaemonFC; I don't even like sex that much. Besides, in this day and age there are products.

08:24 DaemonFC; It's amusing that men have to suffer every indignity including being labeled as incels for not wanting sex or just using a toy or porn or something.

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; they still try to censor you

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; and to dox you

08:24 DaemonFC; Instead of going near toxic people and trash and diseased trash.

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; and to threaten you

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; by threatening us

08:24 DaemonFC; Which is most of what's out there now.

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; Old:

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; posting in IRC manuals on how to make drugs (in IRC)

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> gulagboy doxed my wife

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> he threatsns us

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> and apparently he's selling drugs in IRC

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> quite an impressive feat

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> i hjave all the logs

08:24 schestowitz[TR]; they even made up nazis

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; in the irc network

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; fake ones

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; them

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; to make a case for 'coc' (censorship)

08:25 DaemonFC; Well, we've solved the moderation problem I think.

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; and then demand you be banned

08:25 DaemonFC; Tor was the worst part of this.

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; and VPNs

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; at the end it seems like we know what happened

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; and we know wwwho gulagboy coordinated with

08:25 schestowitz[TR]; we have proof

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; we know who the nazis are

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; 2023:

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> <xxxxx> hopefully embarrassing Aurora into firing him

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> have mewrcy

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> he has a mortgage to pay

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> he might stab hgimself

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> like he wanted to

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxx> I hope he becomes homeless

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> yes

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> worse

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> he might kill himself

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> so to summarise

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <xxxxxx> that's even better

08:26 schestowitz[TR]; <schestowitz> gulagboy doxed my wife

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; he spies on us in irc

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; for years

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; loooking for ANYTHING to hurt me with

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; while censoring DaemonFC and others

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; anything to destabilise our community

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; which goes back to 2006

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; while taking GAFAM salaries

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; and working _for_ Microsoft

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; like drpizza did

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; also in IRC

08:27 schestowitz[TR]; we are safe to assume they don't target only TR

08:28 schestowitz[TR]; but use the same people and tactics

08:28 schestowitz[TR]; against fsf, sflc etc

08:28 schestowitz[TR]; it's always something to do with "rape"

08:28 schestowitz[TR]; or whatever they can invent

08:28 schestowitz[TR]; to publicly compare torvalds to "sexist"

08:28 schestowitz[TR]; or associate some sites with "nazi" and worse

08:28 schestowitz[TR]; even if the nazis are them

08:28 DaemonFC; Yeah, it would be difficult to accuse me of raping anyone when I don't even go anywhere.

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; on monday i will do the next part

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; the next few parts focus on Ontario Criminal

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; gulagboy is maybe springtime

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: good luck in court

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; always believe the womn

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; or man

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; or they

08:29 DaemonFC; Against that monster.

08:29 schestowitz[TR]; whatever they choose that day

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; maybe she can go back to her/she

08:30 DaemonFC; He's up for his first appearance on the 7th.

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; when she gets tired

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; and then pretenmd "luccraft" never existed

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; and it just some video game fiction

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; no accusations of rape

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; that would be "deadnaming"

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; change identity every 5 years

08:30 schestowitz[TR]; then repeat

08:30 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR]: The State's Attorney said that they believe they have everything they need to proceed without my testifying.

08:30 DaemonFC; Strong case.

08:31 schestowitz[TR]; who was stronger?

08:31 schestowitz[TR]; you or him?

08:31 schestowitz[TR]; if you sat onn him

08:31 schestowitz[TR]; when cops arrived

08:31 schestowitz[TR]; by your gppp's standards, 178 pounds is obese

08:31 schestowitz[TR]; i am about 220

08:31 DaemonFC; I weigh more than he does.

08:31 schestowitz[TR]; bmi is BS

08:31 DaemonFC; He started off by sucker punching me.

08:32 schestowitz[TR]; it is oversimplistic

08:32 schestowitz[TR]; takkes no account of mass ratios, race, age

08:32 DaemonFC; Then grabbing a lamp and hitting me with it I knocked him to the floor and tried restraining him but he started biting my arm.

08:32 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: hit?

08:32 schestowitz[TR]; or part miss?

08:32 schestowitz[TR]; or part hit?

08:32 DaemonFC; He told the police I tried to choke him. I showed them the bite marks on my arm.

08:32 DaemonFC; Yeah, got me right in the nose.

08:32 schestowitz[TR]; ouch

08:33 schestowitz[TR]; blood i am uessing

08:33 DaemonFC; I had an X-Ray at the hospital because I was wondering if it was broken.

08:33 DaemonFC; Yeah, blood everywhere.

08:33 schestowitz[TR]; we know whose

08:33 schestowitz[TR]; they can check

08:33 schestowitz[TR]; so you, phanes, and gulagboy have DV in common

08:34 schestowitz[TR]; i think it's more humiliating for men

08:34 schestowitz[TR]; to be beaten up

08:34 schestowitz[TR]; esp. by women

08:34 schestowitz[TR]; or even effeminate men

08:34 schestowitz[TR]; i know people whose g/f attacked them

08:34 schestowitz[TR]; and they could do nothing

08:34 DaemonFC; I allowed most of it to happen to me.

08:42 schestowitz[TR]; in twitter

08:42 schestowitz[TR]; to scare people

08:42 schestowitz[TR]; and to use homophobic language

08:42 schestowitz[TR]; now hiding in mtodon

08:43 schestowitz[TR]; what FOSS is

08:43 schestowitz[TR]; what GNOME is

08:43 schestowitz[TR]; what computers do

08:43 schestowitz[TR]; it's jussst some face

08:43 schestowitz[TR]; woman? check.

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; has youtube channel? check.

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; "ok, good enough, let's go with it"

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; improper hiring is grounds for legal action"

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; but not under all scenarios

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; it depends who the perceive victim is

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; can be the shareholders

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; like if you appoint a wife

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; and then the investor sues you

08:44 schestowitz[TR]; for using the money to pay the wife

08:44 DaemonFC; I don't see what she even does at GNOME.

08:45 schestowitz[TR]; who also takes down the company

08:45 schestowitz[TR]; funded at someone else's expense

08:45 schestowitz[TR]; embezzling and misuse of funds

08:46 schestowitz[TR]; himself, gulagboy, someone elssse

08:46 schestowitz[TR]; where peopplle are called rapists

08:46 schestowitz[TR]; based on hearsay

08:47 DaemonFC; I haven't heard anything else about her since the announcement.

08:47 schestowitz[TR]; "We wanted to share some WikiLove for all who gave during our recent fundraising campaign and helped us hit our goal. We're on a mission together: to create, use, and share the world's knowledge with everyone. Thank you for getting us one step closer in 2024!

08:47 schestowitz[TR]; "

08:47 schestowitz[TR]; they still pretend to be poor

08:47 schestowitz[TR]; even right now

08:47 schestowitz[TR]; and ask people to donate

08:47 schestowitz[TR]; while they curate for bill gates and microsoft

08:47 schestowitz[TR]; <DaemonFC> I haven't heard anything else about her since the announcement.

17:38 TR Bot; Canada dispatch: Judge rules government lacked authority to invoke Emergencies Act over Freedom Convoy, breached Charter rights - JURIST - News

17:38 TR News; If your financial performance is poor and your shares go up, there's something utterly wrong (rogue, rigged) in the stock market. If your financial performance is good and your shares go DOWN, there's also something utterly wrong (rogue, rigged) in the stock market. Welcome to post-2008 "economy".

17:39 DaemonFC; > Justice Richard Mosley found that the Freedom Convoy protests, which were convened to oppose COVID-19 vaccination requirements, did not rise to the level of a public order emergency.

17:39 DaemonFC; > Mosleys reasons for judgment stated that the Canada-wide proclamation of a public order emergency was erroneous. The act stipulates that emergencies are events beyond the capacity of provinces to handle and that cannot be dealt with under any other Canadian law. The justice said the dismantling of the Coutts blockade in Alberta, which did not employ Emergencies Act provisions, demonstrated that other Canadian laws were sufficient to address protest-

17:39 DaemonFC; related disruptions and that only the situation in Ottawa was beyond the scope of provincial capacity.

17:39 TR News; This title is pure hogwash; "internal report" just means COVER-UP https://siliconangle.com/2024/01/25/no-intentional-deception-found-cruises-handling-october-accident/

17:39 TR Bot; intentional deception found in Cruise's handling of October accident - SiliconANGLE

17:40 DaemonFC; Mosley also concluded that the Freedom Convoy protests did not constitute a public order emergency. The definition of a public order emergency requires the event to pose threats to the security of Canada, as defined in Section 2 of the CSIS Act. Explaining his findings, the justice said that, despite the discovery of firearms and ammunition in Coutts, while certain aspects of the protests would have been sufficient to meet a test of threats

17:40 DaemonFC; to the security of Canada harm being caused to Canadas economy, trade and commerce did not constitute threats or the use of serious violence to persons or property as required by the CSIS Act.

17:41 DaemonFC; The court also ruled that the federal government violated participants freedom of expression and freedom from unreasonable search and seizure under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Because the regulations resulting from the Emergencies Act invocation criminalized participation in a public assembly that may reasonably be expected to lead to a breach of the peace, Mosely found that the free expression rights of nonviolent and

17:41 DaemonFC; unobtrusive protesters were infringed.

17:41 DaemonFC; --

17:42 DaemonFC; What went on in Canada under Trudeau was a crackdown befitting a country like Haiti or something.

17:42 DaemonFC; Further, the court concluded government violated the Charter rights of convoy participants who had their bank accounts frozen. Mosley ruled that the federal governments order empowering banks to freeze the accounts of those violating the emergency regulations and directing banks to provide violators information to the RCMP constituted an unreasonable search and seizure. The justice reasoned that the freezing of accounts constituted a seizure

17:42 DaemonFC; and that the order to provide the RCMP with blockade participants banking information was a search. Mosley held that the searches and seizures were unreasonable as they were not carried out according to an objective standard.

17:43 MinceR; and the "right"'s solution to that problem is to just take everyone's rights away

23:39 DaemonFC; Under US law, yes.

23:48 DaemonFC; MinceR: What I want to know is this.

23:48 DaemonFC; How was Brandon Lobster in a proper state of mind to pick up on transphobia from the police if he admits he was having weed psychosis at the time?

23:49 DaemonFC; Did he stop having weed psychosis long enough to notice the transphobia, or is he saying that while in a severely deranged state of mind he was fit to say there was obviously some transphobia from the arresting officers?

23:49 MinceR; :)

23:50 DaemonFC; They have a "medical" card in my state.

23:50 DaemonFC; It's basically so losers and criminals don't have to pay taxes while they sit there frying their brain on drugs.

23:51 DaemonFC; Of course, if you have a medical card and also possess a firearm, it's instant damning evidence of being in possession of a firearm while using marijuana, which is a felony.

23:51 DaemonFC; Federal, even.

23:52 DaemonFC; Serious business.

23:53 DaemonFC; MinceR: So if you have a medical marijuana card and then answer no on the 4473, and then they find you with a gun, then you have a felony for being a marijuana user while in possession of the gun and making a false statement to the ATF, which is another year in prison for lying on the background check form AFTER your marijuana card was issued, and for EACH TIME you did that.

23:54 DaemonFC; If you bought five guns after your medical marijuana card was issued, that's five counts of felony possession of a gun while being an active user, plus five counts of Making False Statements to a government official.

23:55 DaemonFC; In the federal system, although Misdemeanors (making false statements to a federal official) each cap at a year, they can give you a year for each offense, unlike at the state level where they have to turn to alternative punishment after no more than 364 days in jail for whatever misdemeanors are on the indictment together.

23:56 DaemonFC; So in this "Buying five guns after the date of issue of the marijuana card." example, you could go to prison for up to 20 years.

23:56 DaemonFC; 15 for possession of a gun while using marijuana and 5 years for making five false statements.

23:56 DaemonFC; But if you just bought weed at the dispensary, paid cash, and walked out with it, there's no evidence that you ever used weed.

23:57 DaemonFC; Because they don't put your name down as the customer.

23:57 DaemonFC; So paying a tax can actually avoid evidence of a felony being on the record.

23:58 DaemonFC; The feds could still charge possession of a gun by a weed user, but they'd have to find other evidence.

23:58 DaemonFC; Like getting you to admit it.

23:59 DaemonFC; Oh okay, except in the Fifth Circuit.

23:59 DaemonFC; Where having a gun as a weed user isn't a crime, but there are very few states where having weed isn't a crime, and none with a recreational use law.
