[04:40] schestowitz-TR not a priority [04:47] schestowitz-TR added post summary now ● Jan 04 [05:14] DaemonFC I got a few things done. [05:14] DaemonFC One was I ran by the DMV and knocked out my plate renewal for the year. [05:15] DaemonFC I try to keep the car free of those "excuse to pull Ryan over" things. [05:41] schestowitz-TR a. he's gay [05:42] schestowitz-TR b. he's in this database [05:42] schestowitz-TR c. married to "alien" [05:42] schestowitz-TR d. you're not good enough for this kind of car [05:44] DaemonFC LOL [05:44] DaemonFC Yeah, then they go looking. [05:44] DaemonFC "Fuzzy dice on the mirror" [05:44] DaemonFC "Taillight out." [05:44] schestowitz-TR "is that smellll.... ?/... " [05:45] DaemonFC "The license plate sticker is last year's color." [05:46] DaemonFC d. you're not good enough for this kind of car [05:46] DaemonFC They usually save that one for blacks driving recent model year luxury sedan. [05:46] schestowitz-TR saudi arabia: why are you driving? you have no penis [05:47] DaemonFC The idea is that if you're black you have no legitimate reason to own a nice thing. [05:47] DaemonFC What are you doing in a $100,000 car if you're black and not a drug dealer? [05:47] DaemonFC Is it stolen? [05:47] DaemonFC :) [05:49] DaemonFC The really horrible thing is that the cops either actually think like this or just do it because nobody will stop them. [05:50] DaemonFC Those are the two reasons to behave this way. [05:51] DaemonFC It's not illegal to make a lot of money legally if you're black, but if you spend it on nice stuff, you attract cop attention. [05:51] DaemonFC And if you don't, your business clients and associates won't take you seriously. [05:51] DaemonFC So the whole idea is to keep them down by keeping nice watches off their arms, to keep them out of a nice car. [05:51] DaemonFC It hurts them professionally. [05:52] DaemonFC It's like the cops, right, are protecting "territory" from incursions. [05:52] schestowitz-TR yeah [05:52] DaemonFC "Real estate, banking, law firms... They're for whites and Jews." [05:53] schestowitz-TR jealousy [05:53] schestowitz-TR "I'm a white man, but this black man has nicer car then me" [05:54] schestowitz-TR *then [05:54] schestowitz-TR >>than [05:56] DaemonFC Yeah, so the cops go beat them up and take care of slandering them. [05:56] DaemonFC And there's more slots for others to succeed. [05:56] DaemonFC Both directly and because others get the message. [05:58] schestowitz-TR your mom is like that [05:59] schestowitz-TR she found out some balcks -gasp - live ina motal [05:59] schestowitz-TR wait till she finds out some live in a hotal [05:59] schestowitz-TR *htel [05:59] schestowitz-TR hotel ● Jan 04 [06:00] schestowitz-TR DaemonFC: some black people own hotal (your mom's brain explodes) [06:00] schestowitz-TR *hotels [06:01] schestowitz-TR I keep mistyping it [06:01] DaemonFC She is something else. [06:01] DaemonFC I can only imagine what they thought of her in Paris. [06:01] DaemonFC She comes to Chicago and gets souvenirs at the Walgreens. [06:01] schestowitz-TR there is a song [06:01] schestowitz-TR "american in paris" [06:02] schestowitz-TR iirc, by george gershwin [06:05] DaemonFC I kind of live my day in a strange order. [06:06] DaemonFC I end up eating breakfast around midnight, going to sleep at 5, waking up at 1, making a pot of coffee, getting Mandy at work, and eating dinner sometime between 2-7 PM. ● Jan 04 [07:02] schestowitz-TR In Turkey, more people estimated to be using proper GNU/Linux than Mac OS X https://gladk.de/posts/202301_boost_181/ [07:02] -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-gladk.de [07:02] schestowitz-TR Rust causing pains http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/diary/daily/2023-Jan-4.html.en#2023-Jan-4-15:28:59 [07:02] -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.netfort.gr.jp | debcargo rust repository and some observations. ● Jan 04 [09:45] *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)
