| DaemonFC[m] | I make Mandy use hand sanitizer before he gets in the car, throw all of his clothes straight into the bin when he comes home, then go right to the shower and scrub down. | Jul 03 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| AVRS | gloves must be cheap then | Jul 03 00:00 |

| AVRS | but then you have a car, and using gloves is not that hard compared to the usefulness | Jul 03 00:01 |
| cybrNaut | i just noticed most of my hand sanitizer is 70%, which is good enough apparently. I do have one bottle of 62%, and I was told we have 90% isopropal somewhere.. should i add that? anything else? | Jul 03 00:01 |
| AVRS | cybrNaut: isoprop_y_l, isopropanol | Jul 03 00:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Between gloves, hand sanitizer, and the three masks, I've managed to avoid the virus, and so has he. | Jul 03 00:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So it's about having a procedure and sticking to it and not letting your guard down. | Jul 03 00:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then sooner or later everyone around you will have gotten it. | Jul 03 00:02 |
| cybrNaut | now i wonder if the grocer-provided wet wipes are sufficient | Jul 03 00:03 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I don't trust that someone making minimum wage sanitized my cart. | Jul 03 00:03 |
| cybrNaut | well in our case no one does that.. they have a big dispensor of wipes and we just help ourselves | Jul 03 00:04 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That's part of Mandy's job. Sanitizing the carts at Walmart. | Jul 03 00:04 |
| cybrNaut | and my grocer had been doing this for years, so they may not have researched whether it's sufficient for the virus | Jul 03 00:04 |
| DaemonFC[m] | He actually does do it. | Jul 03 00:04 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Most of them just go play on their phone in the restroom. | Jul 03 00:04 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That's why I wouldn't trust that it's even being done. | Jul 03 00:04 |
| AVRS | hm, isoprop(yl)+al(cohol) ≈ isopropal, ok | Jul 03 00:06 |
| AVRS | maybe chemically wrong, but oh well, no idea | Jul 03 00:06 |

| schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: 51k cases now | Jul 03 00:07 |
| schestowitz | 5000 deaths so far today | Jul 03 00:08 |
| schestowitz | still not taking the numbers down, on average | Jul 03 00:08 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Well, it's like 610 deaths today in the US, but I think we'll start seeing that number go up quite a bit sometime next week. | Jul 03 00:09 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It takes 15-40 days to ultimately kill people usually after a diagnosis. | Jul 03 00:10 |
| MinceR | chemically wrong | Jul 03 00:10 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So we're a few days off from seeing the figures come in from when it started getting really bad again. | Jul 03 00:10 |
| schestowitz | I saw articles today aboyt Houston TX | Jul 03 00:10 |
| schestowitz | They're running out of capacity/beds | Jul 03 00:11 |
| schestowitz | or ran out already | Jul 03 00:11 |
| schestowitz | so I guess FL might be the same | Jul 03 00:11 |
| MinceR | "isopropanol" and "isopropyl alcohol" are both correct, though | Jul 03 00:11 |
| MinceR | well, except apparently IUPAC considers "isopropanol" to be wrong | Jul 03 00:11 |
| MinceR | :) | Jul 03 00:11 |
| MinceR | they do consider "propan-2-ol" to be correct though | Jul 03 00:12 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So much about "corralling" the virus. | Jul 03 00:14 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yee haw. Ride 'em cowboy! | Jul 03 00:14 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yippee Ki Yay, motherfucker! | Jul 03 00:14 |
| MinceR | :> | Jul 03 00:14 |
| cybrNaut | my wipes have 0 alcohol or bleach.. only ammonium chloride -- will that work or am i just pissing in the wind? | Jul 03 00:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Alcohol, chlorine bleach, or hydrogen peroxide are all effective. | Jul 03 00:18 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Don't mix them, obviously. | Jul 03 00:18 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Or inject them, or inhale them. | Jul 03 00:18 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Trump voters. | Jul 03 00:18 |
| MinceR | :> | Jul 03 00:19 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Or drink fish tank cleaner. | Jul 03 00:19 |
| AVRS | superglue + cotton… no virus, I guess… only cinder | Jul 03 00:19 |
| cybrNaut | my hydrogen peroxide is no longer fizzy.. i think that means it's useless | Jul 03 00:19 |
| MinceR | neutron bombs work too | Jul 03 00:19 |
| MinceR | but gamma ray bursts work better | Jul 03 00:19 |
| AVRS | wait, that's not an English meaning of that word | Jul 03 00:19 |
| AVRS | ashes | Jul 03 00:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'm sure the police thought there was something fishy going on there when fish tank cleaner guy's wife drank some too and didn't die. | Jul 03 00:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Sometimes people will poison themselves a little bit to throw off suspicions. | Jul 03 00:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There was a case where a guy killed his wife by leaving the car running in the garage while he slept in another room with the vents closed and the windows open. | Jul 03 00:21 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then he called 911 and said he found his wife dead. | Jul 03 00:21 |

| schestowitz | The US now has more than a third of the world's 'active' cases of #covid19 (which are known) | Jul 03 00:45 |
| MinceR | Uhmerica First! | Jul 03 00:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: That was Hillary Clinton's comment when we got to 1 million cases. | Jul 03 00:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | She said Trump finally made America #1 in something. | Jul 03 00:47 |
| MinceR | :> | Jul 03 00:47 |

| DaemonFC[m] | About 1 in 10 of the US population. | Jul 03 01:06 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It takes something like 70% to reach herd immunity. | Jul 03 01:06 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I think we could be talking a million dead. | Jul 03 01:06 |
| DaemonFC[m] | More maybe. | Jul 03 01:07 |
| DaemonFC[m] | We still don't know how long immunity is for or how good it is. | Jul 03 01:07 |
| DaemonFC[m] | My guess is that at some point, the death rate will crash though because it's picked off all the people most likely to die from it and because people have been exposed. | Jul 03 01:08 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Wunderbar! | Jul 03 01:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I remember commercials like the ones we're seeing now. | Jul 03 01:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Tide running ads that say it's worth it to pay more for their detergent because the others are "watered down". | Jul 03 01:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Ironically, they make a watered down Tide called Tide Basic. | Jul 03 01:20 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.restaurantbusinessonline.com | Did restaurants escape the bankruptcy wave? Not really | Jul 03 01:25 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | Potbelly: Got Paycheck Protection Act money....Files Bankruptcy anyway...Gives CEO bonus money. | Jul 03 01:25 |
| MinceR | do they also make a product called Tide Acidic? | Jul 03 01:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Trolling the bankruptcy court seems to be standard practice, if you're a corporation. | Jul 03 01:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: Nice, | Jul 03 01:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Anyway, mom uses it. I told her I tried it and I just didn't like how it made my clothes smell. | Jul 03 01:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It'll get dirt, sweat, etc. out of them, but they don't smell good, and it's pretty much useless on stains. | Jul 03 01:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So I just spend more on orange box Tide. | Jul 03 01:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Amazon has a very concentrated gel version in a bag-in-box setup. | Jul 03 01:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Seems factual, at least. They are the most expensive detergent brand on the shelf, but you only use about half (or, now, a third) as much. | Jul 03 01:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They seem to have it priced about the same per load whether you go powder or liquid. | Jul 03 01:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It used to be that the powder was the way to minimize the per-load price. | Jul 03 01:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I guess now that they finally finished sucking all the water out of the liquid stuff, the economics are somewhat different. | Jul 03 01:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Back in the 90s you got these really massive jugs of detergent, but you had to use an entire giant cap full of it to get your clothes done. | Jul 03 01:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Now you use like 3-4 ounces, maybe. | Jul 03 01:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The powder was probably cheap because there was no liquid in it to give them those ridiculously huge jug sizes so that it looked like they had "more stuff" inside than the other guy. | Jul 03 01:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: So then Walmart gets pissed off because they're devoting so much truck and warehouse and floor space to these giant bottles of detergent. | Jul 03 01:35 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So they actually demanded that they all knock it off and go on an ad blitz to inform people of why the laundry soap bottle was smaller. | Jul 03 01:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Because they had spent years killing the planet to water down your detergent to convince you that you got MOAR. | Jul 03 01:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I always joked about how in 2020 or so we'd have 10 gallon jugs of Tide to do 50 loads of laundry. | Jul 03 01:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That was the way it was heading. :) | Jul 03 01:37 |
| schestowitz | wow, 57k now | Jul 03 01:39 |
| schestowitz | might make it to 60k | Jul 03 01:40 |
| schestowitz | maybe 100k like fauci predicted by month's end | Jul 03 01:40 |
| schestowitz | these things are quadratic in nature if there's no proper quarantine | Jul 03 01:40 |
| schestowitz | the market would collapse again if that happened | Jul 03 01:40 |
| schestowitz | "market" = rich people's Wall Street gambling zone | Jul 03 01:40 |
| MinceR | not exponential? | Jul 03 01:41 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz Well, bankruptcy court is the endgame here for business and people alike. | Jul 03 01:41 |
| schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: some businesses shut down because of lack of respect for masks | Jul 03 01:42 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Like most, I reach the same conclusion, I just get there faster. | Jul 03 01:42 |
| schestowitz | from clients | Jul 03 01:42 |
| schestowitz | who pretend it's just a stunt | Jul 03 01:42 |
| schestowitz | and don't obey or troll staff | Jul 03 01:42 |
| schestowitz | so they shut down the restaurants, it's not worth it | Jul 03 01:42 |
| schestowitz | MinceR: either | Jul 03 01:42 |
| schestowitz | or sort of linear "plus" | Jul 03 01:43 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, I guess that diner here in Waukegan that puts pubes in your omelet won't make it. | Jul 03 01:43 |
| schestowitz | the "plus" because people don't act totally reckless, most still try to contain the spread | Jul 03 01:43 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So sad. Alexa, play Desposito. | Jul 03 01:43 |
| schestowitz | so it's like n+n(8/10)x^2 | Jul 03 01:43 |
| schestowitz | the pubs open here today | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | 4th of July actually | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | so tomorrow | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | Saturday | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | with stupid rules | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | like masks | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | how can you drink with mask on | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | and if you isolate people, what's the point fo a pub? | Jul 03 01:44 |
| schestowitz | it's all about socialising | Jul 03 01:45 |
| schestowitz | and people shout at each other with saliva and phlegm | Jul 03 01:45 |
| schestowitz | otherwise they cannot hear each other in a crowded place | Jul 03 01:45 |
| schestowitz | so it's more about pretending to be trying to salvage brasseries | Jul 03 01:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Expensive beer and 6 feet apart. | Jul 03 01:45 |
| schestowitz | than about doing something to appease the "masses" | Jul 03 01:45 |
| schestowitz | maybe use the beer as hand sanitiser | Jul 03 01:46 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Well, in Illinois, the new Minimum Wage Law is still phasing in. | Jul 03 02:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So many people got a raise yesterday.... | Jul 03 02:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Including Burger King workers at that franchise that cut their pay 50 cents an hour. The law reversed that. | Jul 03 02:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | At least, in Illinois. | Jul 03 02:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: It's possible that this "mutation" was engineered and then released. | Jul 03 02:30 |

| psydread | oiaohm, that also says that when the old mousetrap stops working, Adobe and similar companies will spare no efforts to build an even better mousetrap | Jul 03 10:50 |
| Ariadne | XRevan86: that fake russian ad has been playing in heavy rotation on cable here in the denver metro | Jul 03 11:20 |
| oiaohm | psydread: not exactly adobe has to attempt to build a better cost effective mouse trap. Adobe will have a lot of work with apple moving off x86. | Jul 03 11:50 |
| psydread | I think Adobe is being given far too much credit for what the company actually offers, but there seems to be a substantial part of businesses and individuals that likes being tied to the company's products like a drug addict needs his daily shot of heroin | Jul 03 11:55 |
| oiaohm | and that is the problem. | Jul 03 11:56 |
| oiaohm | Companies have workflows designed around having adobe stuff installed and access to their cloud to get stuff. | Jul 03 11:56 |
| oiaohm | Trying to get them to give that up is really pushing it up hill due to the distributiohn it will cause. | Jul 03 11:57 |
| oiaohm | Unless its like a case venezuela where adobe is forced to cut the cable. | Jul 03 11:57 |
| oiaohm | Mind you blender is kind of using the same cloud supply as a funding source model except with open source software. | Jul 03 12:01 |

| MinceR | do you want to know how i got these scars? | Jul 03 18:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I just paid up the rent again at the hotel. It occurred to me that I've now been living here almost a year. | Jul 03 18:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | On the 27th. | Jul 03 18:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The manager said someone has been living here for 5 years. | Jul 03 18:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If you have shitty credit and stay past the tax exempt date, it really works out to about the same as a studio with utilities, wifi, and satellite TV. | Jul 03 18:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So lots of people do just end up staying here indefinitely. | Jul 03 18:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | When the bankruptcy closes out, I'm going to have Mandy add me as an authorized user on his credit card and then one of the banks I filed against will help me heal my credit rating. | Jul 03 18:48 |
| MinceR | you can check out any time you like | Jul 03 18:48 |
| MinceR | but you can never leave! | Jul 03 18:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, pretty much. | Jul 03 18:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: I deposited his oldest outstanding paycheck and then waited for my direct deposit money. | Jul 03 18:49 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I paid the rent with my deposit and then that check hits on Monday. | Jul 03 18:49 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So the balance never exceeds what the Trustee can't grab/ | Jul 03 18:50 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Bankruptcy law is pretty tricky, really. | Jul 03 18:51 |
| *mmu_man (~revol@vaf26-2-82-244-111-82.fbx.proxad.net) has joined #techrights | Jul 03 18:51 | |
| scientes | DaemonFC[m], more-like slavery law AMIRITE? | Jul 03 18:52 |
| DaemonFC[m] | By the time most people get to filing a voluntary Chapter 7, it's too late for the Trustee to get anything. | Jul 03 18:53 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There's an involuntary Chapter 7 and 11 too, where your creditors can force you into bankruptcy. | Jul 03 18:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It rarely gets used though because it can backfire on them badly and then they're on the hook for your legal bills and the court costs. | Jul 03 18:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Typically, if you force a debtor into Chapter 7 and then there's nothing to take, their debt gets wiped out and you're the big dummy who pair to file their bankruptcy for them. | Jul 03 18:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | *paid | Jul 03 18:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's only something that tends to get done if you believe you're dealing with a debtor who has significant assets, they're squandering them deliberately, and then they'll go file bankruptcy voluntarily when they're finished. | Jul 03 18:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's also kind of hard to do if they owe lots of people money. | Jul 03 18:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If there's less than 12 creditors and the total debt is more than $15,060, then any individual creditor can try to force a debtor into bankruptcy, but if it's over 12 creditors, then at least half of them have to agree to do it. | Jul 03 18:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | In my case, a creditor could have forced me into bankruptcy, but it would have been a bad idea. | Jul 03 18:58 |
| scientes | DaemonFC[m], you should force the federal government into chapter 7 bankruptcy | Jul 03 18:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They'd have been out the $350 fee to file bankruptcy and I would have had all my debt forgiven anyway. | Jul 03 18:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | <scientes "DaemonFC, you should force the f"> There is no law that provides for the federal or state governments to file bankruptcy. | Jul 03 18:59 |
| scientes | DaemonFC[m], natural law | Jul 03 18:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | A local government can, subject to state law. | Jul 03 19:00 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Illinois has no municipal bankruptcy law. | Jul 03 19:00 |
| scientes | but the federal government is bankrupt | Jul 03 19:00 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If it did, then Chicago could go down to bankruptcy court and say it was filing Chapter 13 or Chapter 7 and under "type of debtor", instead of business or individual, they would check "Other" and write in "Municipal Government". | Jul 03 19:00 |
| scientes | and the feds would check "Ponzi scheme" | Jul 03 19:01 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They would then fill out the schedules like any other debtor would. They'd have to list any assets the city had, along with all of their debts. | Jul 03 19:01 |
| DaemonFC[m] | A 13 would make the most sense for Chicago. | Jul 03 19:01 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They have significant assets and they would probably want to exempt some stuff. | Jul 03 19:02 |
| scientes | I sure somebody would could up a few coppers for all those nuclear warheads and toxic waste "super fun" zones | Jul 03 19:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | A 13 would roll their debts into a monthly payment at like 2-3% interest, and in 5 years the rest that was bundled would disappear. | Jul 03 19:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They're paying like 8% right now on their loans, mostly. | Jul 03 19:02 |
| scientes | DaemonFC[m], the federal government has been in 13 for a LONG time | Jul 03 19:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So just getting it down to 2-3% would free up a lot of the city's money that it spends on debt service. | Jul 03 19:03 |
| scientes | except that that no-body will load them any money anymore | Jul 03 19:03 |
| scientes | all they can do is print it | Jul 03 19:03 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then in 5 years, the remainder would be gone and if the city was responsible, then it would have no debt. | Jul 03 19:03 |

| DaemonFC[m] | It forced me to spend $60,000 in borrowed money into the state economy and court fines. | Jul 03 19:12 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: It was the most Illinois thing ever, basically. | Jul 03 19:13 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: While I was being deposed over the phone, the Trustee asked why I was filing on the car. | Jul 03 19:14 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I said, "Let it be known for the record, that you should never ever sign on a car loan with your significant other expecting everything to be okay in 6 years.". | Jul 03 19:14 |
| DaemonFC[m] | He's like "Would you care to expand on that?". | Jul 03 19:15 |

| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I filed bankruptcy without seeing my lawyer and meeting with the trustee over the phone. | Jul 03 23:19 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: It's probably older people who are screwed right now. | Jul 03 23:20 |
| AVRS | schestowitz: I haven't looked for more | Jul 03 23:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Don't know how to scan bills into their phone and email and stuff. | Jul 03 23:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I had to get rid of this debt before I had another problem when the courts finally decided to open up and run a rocket docket for lawsuits. | Jul 03 23:21 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I heard that in other states they were opening up the courts again and all hell was breaking loose with the lawsuits. | Jul 03 23:22 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So I filed before Lake County went into "Stage 4 reopening". | Jul 03 23:22 |
| AVRS | schestowitz: what do you think could be found? | Jul 03 23:22 |
| schestowitz | I am starting to think that | Jul 03 23:22 |
| schestowitz | 1) longterm effects are not known AND are bad | Jul 03 23:22 |
| schestowitz | 2) for young people also | Jul 03 23:22 |
| schestowitz | 3) it mutates for sure, in considerable ways | Jul 03 23:22 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I already take antivirals that slow down the Coronavirus. | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | 4) the death tool is vastly higher than stated | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | re (4): | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | look at UK | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | about 280k cases | Jul 03 23:23 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So my body is flooded with the drug already even if I am exposed to the virus. | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | and we do LLOOOOOOOOADS od testing | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | 44k deaths | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | that's like one in 6 | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | in some countries they claim 1 in 100 | Jul 03 23:23 |
| schestowitz | and their healthcare is on par, similar level of modernity | Jul 03 23:24 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I have enough for like 120 more days. | Jul 03 23:24 |
| schestowitz | so something here is not right | Jul 03 23:24 |
| schestowitz | they're not measuring the same thing in the same way | Jul 03 23:24 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Good luck everybody else. | Jul 03 23:24 |
| schestowitz | time will tell | Jul 03 23:24 |
| schestowitz | AVRS: cheers! | Jul 03 23:24 |
| schestowitz | AVRS: maybe he was added to another stable branch | Jul 03 23:24 |
| schestowitz | but iirc he was already on all of then (Sacha Levin) | Jul 03 23:25 |
| schestowitz | *them | Jul 03 23:25 |
| schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: 49k | Jul 03 23:25 |
| schestowitz | it'll be a record, maybe 60k | Jul 03 23:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Tenofovir is almost as effective as Remdesivir in stopping the Coronavirus from replicating. | Jul 03 23:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They don't want it widely known or there will be a run on that. | Jul 03 23:26 |
| schestowitz | citation needed | Jul 03 23:26 |
| schestowitz | they don't mind runs | Jul 03 23:26 |
| schestowitz | they make more money this way | Jul 03 23:26 |
| schestowitz | they drive up the cost | Jul 03 23:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They suspect Remdesivir would be more effective if people started it sooner. | Jul 03 23:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | By the time you get diagnosed with Coronavirus, the viral load is already sky high. | Jul 03 23:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | My guess is that they're right. You need to stop it from gaining a foothold. | Jul 03 23:27 |
| AVRS | https://aatishb.com/covidtrends/?location=Russia&location=US what actually happened in the US? | Jul 03 23:28 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-aatishb.com | Covid Trends | Jul 03 23:28 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | Trump has absolutely no plan to deal with the virus. How could we at this point? | Jul 03 23:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So he stirs up anti-Asian racism. "Kung Flu!" | Jul 03 23:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The crowds scream and cheer, giving each other the "Kung Flu!". | Jul 03 23:29 |
| schestowitz | Did he say that? | Jul 03 23:30 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, at one of the Nazi rallies the other day. | Jul 03 23:31 |
| schestowitz | yuck | Jul 03 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah. | Jul 03 23:31 |
| schestowitz | wait for violence to follow | Jul 03 23:31 |
| schestowitz | like early 1930s germany | Jul 03 23:31 |
| schestowitz | the leader names the "plague" | Jul 03 23:31 |
| schestowitz | the masses punish them | Jul 03 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I'm getting my gun permit back ASAP as soon as the probation ends. | Jul 03 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It closes out in about another month. | Jul 03 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I wish Illinois was an open carry state. | Jul 03 23:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'd get a Desert Eagle and just carry that around. | Jul 03 23:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The Dumbocrats have actually left Illinois quite open for an invasion by the military. | Jul 03 23:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's not difficult to imagine how Trump could just send in the Army, have our governor arrested and removed, and set up a Military Governor that did whatever he wanted. | Jul 03 23:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The only people giving them a hard time will be the gang members who get fucking machine guns now because they ignore the law. | Jul 03 23:34 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-truthout.org | Trump Does U-Turn Stating He's "All for Masks" as Case Numbers Soar | Jul 03 23:34 | |
| schestowitz | too late | Jul 03 23:34 |
| schestowitz | 3 million cases by Monday | Jul 03 23:34 |
| schestowitz | (known cases) | Jul 03 23:34 |
| MinceR | lol | Jul 03 23:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | People will be left to form an insurgency that involves suicide attacks. | Jul 03 23:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It'll be like Iraq. | Jul 03 23:34 |
| schestowitz | 1.6 active ones at least | Jul 03 23:34 |
| schestowitz | 1.6m | Jul 03 23:34 |
| MinceR | https://img.pr0gramm.com/2020/04/27/ce01168270ab50df.jpg | Jul 03 23:35 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Any soldier that considered their oath to uphold the constitution as binding would have resigned rather than follow Trump's order to launch a gas attack on protesters so Trump could go get a photo op with a buy bull.. | Jul 03 23:36 |
| MinceR | buy bull :D | Jul 03 23:36 |
| schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: just in: https://truthout.org/articles/new-study-suggests-thousands-of-deaths-are-missing-from-coronavirus-toll/ | Jul 03 23:38 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-truthout.org | New Study Suggests Thousands of Deaths Are Missing From Coronavirus Toll | Jul 03 23:38 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, I knew that was likely because the CDC reported that there were "about 50,000 unexpected deaths" on top of what was normal and accounted for due to COVID-19 in the last 90 days. | Jul 03 23:39 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They did it in a Friday evening news dump last week. | Jul 03 23:39 |
| schestowitz | historians may tell | Jul 03 23:39 |
| schestowitz | someone is certainly cooking the books | Jul 03 23:40 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's not known what it was, but they're blaming the majority on people trying to stay away from hospitals and then dying of something else. | Jul 03 23:40 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, I don't buy that. | Jul 03 23:40 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If you gotta go, you gotta go. I just wouldn't go to the ER over something stupid. | Jul 03 23:40 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Especially not right now. | Jul 03 23:40 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If it's something that will heal on its own, you go to the ER and you could very well leave with a much bigger problem. | Jul 03 23:41 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: The same scummy debt collector came back and tried to hit Mandy's credit report with another $77 lab bill that was already paid. | Jul 03 23:42 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The credit bureaus took that one off immediately when I disputed it too. | Jul 03 23:42 |
| DaemonFC[m] | $77 medical bill really has no effect to speak of on your FICO. | Jul 03 23:43 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It considers medical bills as "different" and bills under $120 are considered "nuisance accounts". | Jul 03 23:43 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So it might cost you like 1 point. | Jul 03 23:43 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Still, I dealt with it. :/ | Jul 03 23:43 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The FICO scores are bullshit. They scooped its brains out to justify more loans while skirting the enhanced laws about creditworthiness. | Jul 03 23:44 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You can have like 10 medical collection accounts under $120 and it'll cost you like 4-5 points. | Jul 03 23:44 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Under the old model it would have been much worse. | Jul 03 23:44 |
| DaemonFC[m] | When I cleaned up my credit, I just did an EA Games on them. | Jul 03 23:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | "Challenge everything!". | Jul 03 23:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Like 75% of it fell right off because "I don't know what this account is.". | Jul 03 23:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That was several years ago. | Jul 03 23:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then right before I go to file my bankruptcy, I get these medical bills from 2008 and 2011, and the bill collector said they added interest and doubled them. So I listed them as creditors in the bankruptcy. | Jul 03 23:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Zombie debt. I gave them the middle finger while I was filing anyway. | Jul 03 23:47 |
| schestowitz | 50k.. | Jul 03 23:48 |
| *factor (~factor@47-217-123-141.mskgcmta02.res.dyn.suddenlink.net) has joined #techrights | Jul 03 23:51 | |
| schestowitz | it's like watching the DoomsdayClock(TM) | Jul 03 23:53 |
| schestowitz | I disregard casualties count | Jul 03 23:53 |
| schestowitz | as it's obviously incomplete | Jul 03 23:53 |
| schestowitz | UK today: | Jul 03 23:53 |
| schestowitz | 500 new cases | Jul 03 23:53 |
| schestowitz | 150 deaths | Jul 03 23:53 |
| schestowitz | US 50,000+ cases and just 400 deaths? Bull. Shit. | Jul 03 23:53 |
| schestowitz | as you said, they don't count people | Jul 03 23:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I'm going with Trump's poll numbers as a proxy. | Jul 03 23:54 |
| schestowitz | NYS counted some belatedlty | Jul 03 23:54 |
| schestowitz | saying that had died from covid outside the system | Jul 03 23:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Old people are the most likely to like Trump, and the most likely to talk to a pollster. | Jul 03 23:54 |
| schestowitz | here in the uk you can counted as covid as you get admitted for treatment for 'free', it's part of the system | Jul 03 23:55 |
| schestowitz | you don't fight to get away from it out of fear of a remortgaged or reverse-mortgaged home | Jul 03 23:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | -15 in Registered and Likely Voters is horrible 124 days out. | Jul 03 23:56 |
| schestowitz | florida clocks another 10k cases | Jul 03 23:56 |
| schestowitz | so many vulnerable people there | Jul 03 23:56 |
| schestowitz | they say 68 deaths | Jul 03 23:56 |
| schestowitz | I bet it might be a few hundreds at least | Jul 03 23:56 |
| schestowitz | with "complications" | Jul 03 23:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Early voting is going to be bad news for him if his poll numbers are bad in September and October. | Jul 03 23:56 |
| schestowitz | here we count any deaths with virus and "complications" as covid | Jul 03 23:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Even if things somehow did get better, you can't take back a vote you did early. | Jul 03 23:57 |
| schestowitz | so he will call off the election | Jul 03 23:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I suspect those numbers are probably accurate for now. | Jul 03 23:57 |
| schestowitz | cause chaos | Jul 03 23:57 |
| schestowitz | stir up violence | Jul 03 23:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If it goes on into late next week, be suspicious. | Jul 03 23:57 |
| schestowitz | and say it's postponed | Jul 03 23:57 |
| schestowitz | like Marcos in Philippines | Jul 03 23:57 |
| schestowitz | "I hereby declare martial law" | Jul 03 23:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It takes 2-3 weeks to die from this shit. | Jul 03 23:57 |
| schestowitz | then 1 decade of Trump until his death | Jul 03 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So watch for it to gradually get worse. | Jul 03 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The government in the Philippines has always been terrible. | Jul 03 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | None of this is new stuff. | Jul 03 23:58 |
| schestowitz | lol AZ 4400 cases | Jul 03 23:58 |
| schestowitz | after his stupid rally | Jul 03 23:58 |
| schestowitz | for a state with not so many people in it | Jul 03 23:58 |
| schestowitz | more cases than California | Jul 03 23:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: It's weird that the people there could produce a government so bad. | Jul 03 23:59 |
| schestowitz | Republican states on to | Jul 03 23:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The ones I've met seem pretty decent except the in-laws. | Jul 03 23:59 |
| schestowitz | alabama, carolina, tn, ga, az, tx, fl | Jul 03 23:59 |
| schestowitz | *on top | Jul 03 23:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But there's people who are fucking awful everywhere. | Jul 03 23:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's a matter of how many. | Jul 03 23:59 |
