DaemonFC[m]That's a beating from the pimp. (trick question)Aug 04 00:00
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: The one in Nevada where it's legal (in some areas) make you pay up front.Aug 04 00:01
DaemonFC[m]It's like $6,000 though. Who is going to pay a hooker $6,000?Aug 04 00:01
DaemonFC[m]Market rate is like maybe $300-600 per half hour depending on the hooker and what area you're in. Less if you have no standards, obviously.Aug 04 00:02
MinceR:>Aug 04 00:02
DaemonFC[m]Must be that Nevada Libertarianism.Aug 04 00:02
MinceRwhat if i shoot the pimp in the head before he could beat me?Aug 04 00:02
DaemonFC[m]The state doesn't let the hooker and the business decide what her services are worth.Aug 04 00:02
DaemonFC[m]Then it's Grand Theft Auto and you have 3 wanted stars. Aug 04 00:03
DaemonFC[m]There's a few things in the game where you go to 5 immediately. Like flying over a military base.Aug 04 00:04

MinceRno, it could be Postal2Aug 04 00:05
MinceRand i could have no wanted level at allAug 04 00:05
DaemonFC[m]You can clear wanted levels by hiding successfully and letting the cooldown period go to work, or getting your car repainted. Aug 04 00:05
DaemonFC[m]I don't know why there's no more Postal games.Aug 04 00:06
MinceRthere areAug 04 00:06
MinceRthere's Postal2: Paradise Lost and Postal4: No Regerts is in developmentAug 04 00:07
MinceRalso Postal ReduxAug 04 00:07
MinceRand Hatred is sort of related :>Aug 04 00:08
MinceRand there's PostalIII but it's said to be crap and unofficialAug 04 00:08
DaemonFC[m]Oh, nice.Aug 04 00:08
DaemonFC[m]I'll have to play Postal 2 again.Aug 04 00:08
DaemonFC[m]I was glued to my chair through that.Aug 04 00:09
DaemonFC[m]What's with the negative reviews?Aug 04 00:09
MinceRnegative reviews of Postal2? offended people.Aug 04 00:09
DaemonFC[m]It's possible to play through without killing anyone, apparently.Aug 04 00:10
MinceRbase game, yes. AW[P], no. :>Aug 04 00:11
XRevan86What are AW[P]?Aug 04 00:12
MinceRdo outragists still generate drama about every single game where you need to kill someone to win?Aug 04 00:12
MinceRApocalypse Weekend; A Week in ParadiseAug 04 00:12
MinceRAWP is a mod that merges the base game (Monday-Friday) with AW (Saturday-Sunday) and adds some stuff, and became an official part of the gameAug 04 00:12
XRevan86MinceR: Like chess?Aug 04 00:13
DaemonFC[m]"In 2004, the Office of Film and Literature Classification banned Postal 2 in New Zealand, citing high levels of violent content and animal violence. Distribution or purchase for personal use is a criminal offense, punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of $50,000."Aug 04 00:13
DaemonFC[m]WTFAug 04 00:13
MinceRXRevan86: i guess, yesAug 04 00:13
MinceRpractically all violence i'm aware of is "animal violence"Aug 04 00:13
MinceRhumans are animalsAug 04 00:13
XRevan86or Battleship (in the hundreds)Aug 04 00:14
MinceRyeahAug 04 00:15
DaemonFC[m]https://www.gamespot.com/articles/postal-court-case-dismissed/1100-6030580/Aug 04 00:16
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Postal court case dismissed - GameSpotAug 04 00:16
DaemonFC[m]The US Postal Service sued them for calling the game Postal.Aug 04 00:16
MinceRyeah, fuck the USPSAug 04 00:16
DaemonFC[m]That's okay. They have bigger problems now. Trump doesn't like them.Aug 04 00:16
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: I'd mail them a letter telling them to fuck themselves, but that would be a crime.Aug 04 00:17
MinceRit would be?Aug 04 00:17
MinceRwhatever happened to the first amendment?Aug 04 00:18
MinceRwhat happened to the "land of the free"?Aug 04 00:18
cybrNautfuck FedEx (NRA-supporting ALEC member).  Fuck UPS (ALEC member).  Fuck USPS (blocks Tor).  Who's left?Aug 04 00:18
MinceRcarring packages yourself :>Aug 04 00:18
cybrNautAirborne Express has closed down in the US, aFAIKAug 04 00:18
MinceRi don't know, all carrier services tend to suck somewhat hereAug 04 00:18
MinceRand the state post sucks the mostAug 04 00:19
DaemonFC[m]<MinceR "whatever happened to the first a"> Most states make it Disorderly Conduct to flip someone off or tell them to fuck themselves, if it "alarms them" and was "unreasonable".Aug 04 00:19
MinceRah, so they just wipe their asses with the constitution over there, tooAug 04 00:19
DaemonFC[m]Using the mail to do that makes it a state and federal offense.Aug 04 00:19
cybrNautUSPS does not support republican politicians.  FedEx and UPS does (ALEC membership), so FedEx and UPS are rock-bottom scum compared to USPSAug 04 00:19
MinceRi meant in hungaryAug 04 00:20
DaemonFC[m]Obscenity carried out using the mail (federal) and Disorderly Conduct (most states).Aug 04 00:20
MinceRevery carrier service will tell you they'll tell you in advance when they're going to deliverAug 04 00:20
MinceRand then they either won't communicate with you at all, just randomly turn upAug 04 00:20
MinceRor send you a message maybe 2h in advanceAug 04 00:20
MinceRwith the state post office, it's pretty much just "we'll leave you a few slips of papers and have you wait a few days, then you can come to the post office to pick up your stuff"Aug 04 00:21
DaemonFC[m]The law makes it generally illegal to use another courier to send letters.Aug 04 00:21
cybrNautany FedEx/UPS competitor is worth supporting, particularly when the orange man is trying to sabotage USPS -- starving it to block votesAug 04 00:21
DaemonFC[m]So you have to use USPS and their shitty service and hope for the best.Aug 04 00:21
MinceRand then sometimes their system will just ignore the number you picked and they'll never call youAug 04 00:21
MinceR04 012137 < DaemonFC[m]> The law makes it generally illegal to use another courier to send letters.Aug 04 00:22
MinceRagain, what the fuck?Aug 04 00:22
cybrNautanyone can carry letters, but only USPS can use the official mailboxesAug 04 00:22
MinceRwhat happened to free enterprise and the market economy?Aug 04 00:22
DaemonFC[m]FedEx was charged with delivering letters.Aug 04 00:22
DaemonFC[m]They weren't even putting them in the mailboxes.Aug 04 00:22
DaemonFC[m]<MinceR "what happened to free enterprise"> LOLAug 04 00:22
MinceRdoes the USPS buy mailboxes to put in people's homes or something?Aug 04 00:23
cybrNautthat's legal of course.. you can send a letter via FedEx (if you don't mind supporting republicans)Aug 04 00:23
DaemonFC[m]No, you have to buy the mail box and then nobody can use it but the post office.Aug 04 00:23
cybrNautUSPS has the key to my mailbox.. how would FedEx get into my box without a key?Aug 04 00:23
DaemonFC[m]It also has to be constructed according to their regulations.Aug 04 00:23
MinceRso much for the alleged protection of propertyAug 04 00:23
MinceRwhat if you get a differently constructed mailbox and put a sticker saying "NOT FOR USPS" on it?Aug 04 00:24
DaemonFC[m]You mean like for newspapers?Aug 04 00:24
MinceRthen again, property rights also got a stab in the back when the establishment decided it's A-OK to let microshit decide what OS you're allowed to run on your own PCAug 04 00:24
MinceRDaemonFC[m]: or for letters delivered by another serviceAug 04 00:24
DaemonFC[m]That's why they make newspaper boxes. It's illegal to put your newspaper in the mailbox.Aug 04 00:24
MinceRor even letters delivered by unaffiliated personnelAug 04 00:25
cybrNautexactly.. newspaper boxes are not usps boxesAug 04 00:25
DaemonFC[m]When Trump collapses the post office, it's going to hurt rural people much worse.Aug 04 00:25
DaemonFC[m]They're the ones that need it more.Aug 04 00:25
MinceRand people are going to have a lot of mailboxes that will be illegal to put anything in, ever againAug 04 00:25
DaemonFC[m]Nobody else even has to serve them, and wouldn't. The USPS has many routes that are not profitable.Aug 04 00:26
DaemonFC[m]So it's rural people freeloading.Aug 04 00:26
DaemonFC[m]Because there has to be a post office in a county with 1,000 people in it.Aug 04 00:26
cybrNautAlaskans would be fucked.. that whole state is mostly ruralAug 04 00:26
MinceRthey're already fucked, they live in uhmericaAug 04 00:27
cybrNautthey're fucked b/c they have Sara PalinAug 04 00:27
cybrNautbut at least they get out of state taxesAug 04 00:27
cybrNautapart from giving an NRA discount, FedEx ships shark fins, hunting trophies, and slave dolphins.  They have no ethical constraints whatsoever.Aug 04 00:31
cybrNauti'm actually grateful that FedEx and UPS don't get access to official USPS boxes - i'd rather not see them profittingAug 04 00:33
cybrNautif that imposes infrastructure costs on them, good.  fuck them.  That's less money to feed ALEC withAug 04 00:34

cybrNauti'm not sure what happens if Airbore Express is used in Europe to ship something to the USAug 04 00:35

cybrNautUSPS is the lesser of evils for shipping something from inside the USAug 04 00:36

DaemonFC[m]They'll leave them outside somewhere at the motel/apartment building you're in and let them get stolen.Aug 04 00:37
DaemonFC[m]They have this "I don't get paid enough to care." attitude. Aug 04 00:37
cybrNautAmazon also has a contract with FedEx, so if a package is going where Amazon doesn't, there's a hand-off to FedEx.  They're both the top evilAug 04 00:37
DaemonFC[m]No, UPS is.Aug 04 00:37
DaemonFC[m]UPS tossed my husband's medication somewhere.Aug 04 00:38
DaemonFC[m]It's expensive and the only reason he got another one was because CVS sent it again and didn't run it through insurance.Aug 04 00:38
cybrNautFedEx is worse, b/c fedex supports NRA in addition to ALEC, and FedEx ships shark fins, hunting trophies, and slave dolphins (UPS does not)Aug 04 00:38
cybrNautwell, i'm talking in terms of ethicsAug 04 00:38
cybrNauti don't generally give a shit about package handling b/c i wouldn't ship something uninsuredAug 04 00:39
MinceRthere should be an alternative to the NRA which supports gun rights instead of taking senseless shots at video games and moviesAug 04 00:39
DaemonFC[m]The sideways attacks on games and movies change the narrative from people shooting each other.Aug 04 00:40
cybrNautGun rights don't need support b/c prohibition will never happen.Aug 04 00:40
DaemonFC[m]That's all the NRA and Trump want to do. They don't want to stop gun violence. Just blame something unrelated.Aug 04 00:40
cybrNautthe NRA *used* to be a gun safety org.  Now they're quite the opposite, as they fight sensible gun controlsAug 04 00:41
MinceRthey should take shots at the people, thenAug 04 00:42
cybrNautNRA would fight to give everyone hand grenades and grenade launchers, if it were up for debateAug 04 00:42
MinceRthe guns don't point themselves at people and don't pull the triggerAug 04 00:42
MinceRand grenade launchers would still be insufficient for the purpose of fighting a government turned against its peopleAug 04 00:42
cybrNautNRA would be arming children, if they thought they could get away with itAug 04 00:43
cybrNautNRA is no longer an advocate for gun safetyAug 04 00:43
cybrNautthey're just a republican financerAug 04 00:43
cybrNautthe NRA was critical to channeling Russian money into Trump's war chestAug 04 00:44
MinceR"republican"Aug 04 00:44
MinceRthey want to turn uhmerica into russia, and i can assure you, russia is no republicAug 04 00:45

MinceRlolAug 04 00:52
sebsebsebMinceR: they do stuff like that, wehn got nothing else really that's noticeable  it seemsAug 04 00:52
sebsebsebMinceR: I kept the 19.10 for longer under eol using that, but upgraded other day to thisAug 04 00:52

MinceRi don't know why you torture yourself with that stuffAug 04 00:53
sebsebsebwhat do I get that's new, and that I actually see as well ?Aug 04 00:53
sebsebsebwhich stuff ?Aug 04 00:53
sebsebsebUbuntu ?????????????Aug 04 00:53
MinceRlolAug 04 00:53
sebsebsebUbuntu  works but uhmmAug 04 00:54
MinceRi wouldn't call it workingAug 04 00:54
sebsebsebwell it can go wrong too as well, like when I was changing dm's and suchAug 04 00:54
sebsebsebalso the Unity isn;t' how it should be the Unith 7 that had put into 19.10 still like that in 20.04Aug 04 00:54
MinceRon a brand new ubuntu install, having to switch to a different virtual console so i can tell the emergency prompt that yes, i do in fact want to bootAug 04 00:54
sebsebsebMinceR: yeah a bit like thatAug 04 00:54
MinceRor having it wait forever for an NFS server i already stopped on shutdownAug 04 00:54
sebsebsebI do an upgradeAug 04 00:54
MinceRor just freezing during the install processAug 04 00:54
sebsebsebget a ugly  sddm  themeAug 04 00:55
sebsebsebkdeAug 04 00:55
sebsebsebinstall and reove gdm3 and put lxdm on or tried to that dind't workAug 04 00:55
sebsebsebthen things get messed upAug 04 00:55
MinceRi know microshit and crApple lowered most people's standards, but not mineAug 04 00:55
sebsebsebI get that prompt where you log in with your user name and passwordAug 04 00:55
sebsebsebthen I do whatever and I get bluettooth errors and lose my net connection evenAug 04 00:55
sebsebsebI fix things in the root prompt in the recovery consoleAug 04 00:55
sebsebsebMinceR: yeah  you get system error detected on ubuntu  after doing certain thingsAug 04 00:57
sebsebsebMinceR: a little pop up message I had that when doing this stuff with dm'sAug 04 00:58
MinceR(cat) (no audio) https://i.imgur.com/XtjiTVS.mp4Aug 04 00:58
sebsebsebso I don't actsaully think it's that stable or whatever really !  altough it mostly does work, but you take a chance installing loads of de's and wm's  that may not work  as smoothely together anymore, and changing the plymouth or dm  might mess things up tooAug 04 00:58
sebsebseb I will try do a sddm theem change later by removing the default and installing another or  well maybe I don't need to do that actsually just install another,  but I feel like it can go wrong, and so back to recovery console for me or soetingAug 04 00:59
sebsebsebMinceR: so yeah Ubuntu recovery modeAug 04 01:14
sebsebsebMinceR: and stability etc, tell me more Aug 04 01:14
sebsebsebwhat you meantAug 04 01:14
MinceRubuntu used to be stableAug 04 01:15
MinceRlong agoAug 04 01:15
MinceRthen they adopted kde4, forced mono, started messing with systray support, started forcing unity, started experimenting with upstart and systemdAug 04 01:16
sebsebsebMinceR: ok ten reasons why you think Ubuntu is not stable anymore !Aug 04 01:16
sebsebsebMinceR: not inclduign things such as mono, unity, or kde 4, or pulse audio back in 2008Aug 04 01:16
sebsebsebor system dAug 04 01:16
sebsebsebMinceR: but yeah it going wrong with system error detected message that's what I mean,  or it going wrong and then got to log into the recovery mode shell for some reason, that kind of thingAug 04 01:17
MinceR1. compositor crashing during install processAug 04 01:17
MinceR2. installer ui freezing during install processAug 04 01:17
MinceR3. booting into a hidden emergency prompt on first installAug 04 01:17
MinceR4. waiting forever for an NFS server that is already gone on shutdownAug 04 01:18
MinceR5. unsolicited, pointless patches to cripple applicationsAug 04 01:18
MinceR6. gnomeAug 04 01:18
MinceR7. upstartAug 04 01:19
MinceR8. canonical's refusal to do any actual work beyond maintaining themes and pointless patchesAug 04 01:19
MinceR9. breaking the system on dist-upgradeAug 04 01:20
DaemonFC[m]Microsoft's SEC Report: LinkedIn has been absolutely trashed by the pandemic and nobody needs it because they aren't hiring anymore. (Doesn't mention that they also fired roughly 1,000 people from LinkedIn.) Also, LinkedIn had a great quarter and comp revenue is up 10%.Aug 04 01:21
DaemonFC[m]There's something very wrong with what's being stated vs. what's actually happening.Aug 04 01:21
MinceR10. polkitAug 04 01:21
DaemonFC[m]They fired 8%+ of that entire division just weeks ago.Aug 04 01:21
DaemonFC[m]You probably don't do that if it's showing better growth than Windows, where they haven't publicly admitted to any layoffs, but heh. Aug 04 01:22
sebsebsebMinceR: polkit and uhmm yeah, lol  I forgot about things like that, but that would be exemptions to the 10 things I think :DAug 04 01:23
DaemonFC[m]Like I said before, with OEM rebates to keep Chromebooks at bay, it's $50 revenue and then you hand $40-50 right back to the OEM. So they're counting revenue that goes right back out to the guy who handed it to them. Then in the SEC report, they said Pro skus of Windows (where the money usually does come from is down 4%.Aug 04 01:23
DaemonFC[m]So blame that damned virus.Aug 04 01:23
sebsebsebMinceR: the recovery console can be useful and can be better than other distros with something similar, but it's annoying having to go in tehre in the first place !Aug 04 01:23
MinceRthen come up with your 10 things, if you think forcing cancerd on the user is not enough reason to not consider an alleged OS to be stable :>Aug 04 01:23
DaemonFC[m]They actually did blame the virus for Windows pro license revenue being down 4%.Aug 04 01:24
MinceRsebsebseb: i have no doubt of thatAug 04 01:24
DaemonFC[m]Even though they keep saying you need MOAR client software to work from home.Aug 04 01:24
MinceRbut the system should be robust enough that it won't need to use the recovery console right on the first boot after installAug 04 01:24
MinceRand it shouldn't hide it on an inactive VC while just having the fancy boot animation indicate nothingAug 04 01:24
sebsebsebMinceR: it doesn't invoate anymore!  they do stupid things like putting back in the Ubuntu Hardy Heron default wall papper from 2008Aug 04 01:24
sebsebsebinto 20.04Aug 04 01:24
sebsebsebsince apparnatly it was so popularAug 04 01:24
MinceRlolAug 04 01:24
MinceRcanonical can't afford to have new wallpapers madeAug 04 01:25
MinceRthat's a new oneAug 04 01:25
DaemonFC[m]It doesn't add up. Businesses are casting Windows Pro/Enterprise out and Microsoft is bleeding revenue. On the consumer side, Windows 10 is carpet bombed for free to slow down Google and maybe sell people some Microsoft "cloud" stuff.Aug 04 01:25
sebsebsebuhmm  I much prefered the Ubuntu 8.10 wall  papper that came next, that was my faourite default wall paper :)Aug 04 01:25
MinceRwhat happened, microsuck wanted too much money for a UEFI signature?Aug 04 01:25
sebsebsebMinceR: well they got the new mascot wall papers tooAug 04 01:25
sebsebsebMinceR: but for colours they are so  similarn ad aren't that greatAug 04 01:25
sebsebsebthe purpel aburgineAug 04 01:25
DaemonFC[m]That entire division is falling apart. There's no real growth. There's negative growth. If it seems like they're not putting much effort into Windows, it's because it's not a growth product.Aug 04 01:25
sebsebsebwith a bit of yellow/organe possibly  which is the communityAug 04 01:26
MinceRwell, at least that's an improvement over the brownAug 04 01:26
MinceRbut the brown was easy to configure awayAug 04 01:26
MinceRthe brokenness takes a bit moreAug 04 01:26
sebsebsebMinceR: oh the brown, I know why you liked the brown :)Aug 04 01:26
MinceR(namely, installing something like void in its place)Aug 04 01:26
DaemonFC[m]They also admit that their search ad revenue is down almost 20%.Aug 04 01:26
MinceRi hate brownAug 04 01:26
MinceRbut it was easy to avoidAug 04 01:26
sebsebsebyou and DaemonFC[m] love the brown !Aug 04 01:26
DaemonFC[m]They blame the virus, even though Google's SEC report says their ad revenue is up.Aug 04 01:26
sebsebsebMinceR:  they even called it human  hmm I wonder why :D Aug 04 01:27
DaemonFC[m]Facebook and Google say ad revenue is up and Microsoft says down 20% and COVID-19.Aug 04 01:27
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: Down 20% and this is with the New Edge that has been demanding attention and stealing defaults, and spewing misinformation about other browsers, and putting notifications in news articles that you need to get Edge.Aug 04 01:28
DaemonFC[m]It defaults to Bing. So if Edge defaults to Bing and their 20% advertising revenue decline is true, that should be seen as a proxy for a lot of users moving away from not only Edge, but Windows itself.Aug 04 01:29
MinceRsebsebseb: maybe they believed that people who knew something about IT weren't humanAug 04 01:29

schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: now Microsoft is basically liaising with Nazis. Because they've been faking their results and are looking to be bailed out by dictators.Aug 04 01:30
MinceRspeaking of brown, it's time for me to release something that's better designed than systemd, windows or macOS...Aug 04 01:30
DaemonFC[m]<schestowitz "DaemonFC: now Microsoft is basic"> This is like that episode of Breaking Bad where Ted Beneke admits to Skyler that he's been faking the books for years and doesn't know what to do, so she stuffs the company accounts with Walt's meth lab money.Aug 04 01:31
sebsebsebMinceR: yes you do your best work in the bathroom!Aug 04 01:31
DaemonFC[m]Microsoft will never have to open the books as long as investors are happy with the SEC reports, and they'll be happy with the SEC reports as long as the money is in the accounts, and they'll be happy with the money being in the accounts even if it's not why Microsoft says the money is in the accounts. (And it won't be, because it'll be JEDI and TikTok and whatever they think Trump can slip them from the taxpayers orAug 04 01:33
DaemonFC[m]steal from other companies and hand to them under threat of destroying them if they don't sell their product.)Aug 04 01:33
DaemonFC[m]This is, of course, the definition of fascism. Where a guy like Trump can come threaten to destroy your business in 45 days unless you sell it cheaply to his criminal pals over at Microsoft.Aug 04 01:34
schestowitzyes, I knowAug 04 01:35

DaemonFC[m]ByteDance should file a lawsuit against Trump and ask for an emergency injunction stopping him from shutting them down while it's litigated.Aug 04 01:38
schestowitzI was going to say more about it in relation to JEDIAug 04 01:38
schestowitzbut...Aug 04 01:39
schestowitzI made a misatkeAug 04 01:39
schestowitzI assigned this to an internAug 04 01:39
schestowitzand she never did anythingAug 04 01:39
schestowitzwaste of time reallyAug 04 01:39
DaemonFC[m]They seem to be profitable enough that they could file for an emergency injunction against him.Aug 04 01:39
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: yes, welcome to nazism basically, but a lawsuit against criminals and nazis with a massive military might not doAug 04 01:39
schestowitznot they try to lower the priceAug 04 01:39

schestowitzit's European, Swedish IIRCAug 04 01:41
schestowitzthen they cheat and lieAug 04 01:41
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, Skype used a peer to peer system and encryption and the US government nearly had a stroke because it wasn't all on some centralized server where they could archive it forever and pull it up whenever they wanted it.Aug 04 01:42
DaemonFC[m]So right after Microsoft bought it, they replaced the peer structure with servers (running Linux, actually, not Windows Server) that took the place of the supernodes.Aug 04 01:43

MinceRthat's not my best work, merely better than their bestAug 04 02:03
DaemonFC[m]The NSA leaks from Snowden are 7 years old now, but from what they said at the time, I doubt things have gotten better.Aug 04 02:08
DaemonFC[m]Remember Obama commenting on it that Americans would just have to have a "balance" of freedom and safety.Aug 04 02:09
DaemonFC[m]Even though the PRISM program doesn't do anything to increase safety for Americans.Aug 04 02:09
MinceRlolAug 04 02:09
DaemonFC[m]Nor is the government worried about that.Aug 04 02:09
MinceRis that like "life-work balance"?Aug 04 02:09
MinceRcan i have some "safety from states" in that "safety"?Aug 04 02:10
DaemonFC[m]Oh sure, you know. The get 2 other jobs to work alongside McDonalds and don't spend anything on heat, and health insurance is twenty bucks "budget".Aug 04 02:10
MinceRor "safety from oppression"?Aug 04 02:10
MinceRor maybe he meant it like "yeah, we can take some of your freedom away, but we've got to 'balance' it out with also taking some of your safety away."Aug 04 02:11
DaemonFC[m]LOLAug 04 02:11
DaemonFC[m]Sure you're losing freedom, and the government is robbing you blind, but at least you're not safe. Aug 04 02:12

schestowitzfrom ncmecAug 04 02:15
DaemonFC[m]How many times did they repeat the same page this time?Aug 04 02:15
DaemonFC[m]Oh god.Aug 04 02:16
schestowitzmaybe only for repeat filesAug 04 02:16
schestowitzmultiple copiesAug 04 02:16
DaemonFC[m]File hash values for CP? They spammed you with file hashed for CP!?!?Aug 04 02:16
schestowitzbut publishing this would be unwiseAug 04 02:16
DaemonFC[m]OMGAug 04 02:16
schestowitzit would reveal what hashes they scam for and some pervy filenamesAug 04 02:16
schestowitzI wonder if there's more to the police report that they don't revealAug 04 02:17

schestowitzor whether what I sent you is all they offered the courtroom and that was itAug 04 02:17
MinceRis having hashes of CP legally punishable?Aug 04 02:17

DaemonFC[m]No, it wouldn't be. Aug 04 02:18
MinceRcuriousAug 04 02:18
schestowitzand, if so, I can blame the policeAug 04 02:18
schestowitzand hold THEM accountableAug 04 02:18
MinceRi guess the suits haven't figured out what hashes are yetAug 04 02:18
schestowitzwe never asked for thoseAug 04 02:18

DaemonFC[m]I CAN'T BREATHE!Aug 04 02:18
schestowitzbut... this is not stuff you want online anywayAug 04 02:18
schestowitzit can help people know how or what to avoid/evadeAug 04 02:19
schestowitzand also the filenames are a tad disturbingAug 04 02:19
MinceRif people aren't willing to abolish the state, how do they expect to hold their police accountable?Aug 04 02:19
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: I could publicly say, "WTH is the police sending me a list of CP hashes that I never even asked for?"Aug 04 02:20
schestowitzbut that's like announcing, hey, cops are sending me CP hashesAug 04 02:20
schestowitzanyway, the earlier installments are still useful and can be published at some stageAug 04 02:20
schestowitzbut exposing names of cops might be unfair to themAug 04 02:21
DaemonFC[m]If they know the hash values, then people could alter the files so that the hashes are different. Aug 04 02:21
schestowitzas in this particular cases all we know is that they did their job, busting a pervert who was a threat to kidsAug 04 02:21
DaemonFC[m]For example, just replacing one frame of a video would change the hash.Aug 04 02:21
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: well, they could do so regardlessAug 04 02:21
DaemonFC[m]Just assume that whatever they got is already compromised and alter the files.Aug 04 02:22
schestowitzbut then if they disseminate the derivative file, then that too might be added to the police/ncmec DB at one pointAug 04 02:22
schestowitzeither way, maybe we'll release other bits of the installments tonight, not hashes or anythingAug 04 02:22
schestowitzI just need to think carefully how to present those thingsAug 04 02:22
schestowitzfor some we have OCR alreadyAug 04 02:23
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: the cops saw CPAug 04 02:23
schestowitzthey showed it to him in the car at the gates compoundAug 04 02:23
schestowitzso they don't merely deal with file objects and hashes thereAug 04 02:23
schestowitzthey also watched videosAug 04 02:23

schestowitzbut I suppose it makes sense for properly trained ones to get reasonable suspicion based on a sample or twoAug 04 02:24
DaemonFC[m]Bust all of the stupids along the way.Aug 04 02:24
schestowitzsame in FB moderators (censors) by the wayAug 04 02:25
schestowitzthey occasionally deal with decapitations, CP etc.Aug 04 02:25
schestowitzThey sued for trauma/stressAug 04 02:25
schestowitzthey get stuff flagged for themAug 04 02:25
schestowitzin GAB some nasty people send me really awful stuffAug 04 02:26

sebsebsebDaemonFC[m]: MinceR schestowitz yep Microsoft want to buy Tik TOk USAug 04 02:43

schestowitzthatAug 04 02:59

MinceRinterestingAug 04 03:14
schestowitzour concern has, all along in fact, been that they might be hiding key thingsAug 04 03:14
MinceRlooks like a redaction of unspecified length to meAug 04 03:14
schestowitzlike.... maybe he brought the laptop to BIll and "Malinda" [sic] (that's how they spell it repeatedly)Aug 04 03:14
MinceRof course, i suppose "JONES" could have described CP literally as "XXX", but then there would need to be a period afterwardsAug 04 03:15
schestowitzWe can ask the Seattle PD what that isAug 04 03:15
schestowitzif they want to answer at allAug 04 03:15
schestowitzthe red colour means they added itAug 04 03:15
MinceR"XXX, designating pornography"Aug 04 03:15
schestowitzthe redaction teamAug 04 03:15
schestowitzwhy in red?Aug 04 03:15
MinceRwell, the sentence is meaningless without the XXXAug 04 03:16
schestowitzRed is only used elsewhere in the file for redactionsAug 04 03:16
schestowitzPage 15 of 15Aug 04 03:16
MinceRyeah, looks like itAug 04 03:17
schestowitzso they likely did not make a page or more just vanishAug 04 03:17
MinceRelsewhere i saw a black background, that seems to be a redaction of stuff that fits inside the boxAug 04 03:17
schestowitzRemember they won't spoon-feed us things that can incriminate their bossesAug 04 03:17
MinceRbut in this case, there seems to be no indication of how long the original text wasAug 04 03:17

schestowitz"1. (noun) A period of time typically starting soon before last call and ending when a bar/club is officially closed wherein every person who has not yet hooked up and wishes to do so lowers their respective standards to “whatever is available”. Usually results in regrettable hookups with unattractive and/or fat people. When coupled with drinking large amounts of alcohol may result in truly reprehensible hookup scenarios.'Aug 04 05:20

scienteswhy is it so hard to install python modules?Aug 04 12:30
scientesand the documentation all says "this is obsolete, don't use this"Aug 04 12:31
scientesbut still doesn't tell you how to do itAug 04 12:31
scientesand everyone wants to tell you a bunch of useless shitAug 04 12:32
scienteslike "use a virtualenv"Aug 04 12:32
scienteswhen all I want to do is install the damn thingAug 04 12:32
MinceRi don't see what's so hard about pip3 install or whateverAug 04 12:32
scientesthey don't get the #1 problem is too many abstractionsAug 04 12:32
scientesMinceR, all pip3 wants to do is to pull from the internet Aug 04 12:32
scientesthere is absolutely no documentation of how to do a local installAug 04 12:32
scientesand again "use virtualenv"Aug 04 12:32
scienteswith no documentation on the basicsAug 04 12:33
XRevan86scientes: You know the best part? As far as "modern" languages go, python is not heavy on abstractions.Aug 04 12:33

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-docs.python.org | venv — Creation of virtual environments — Python 3.8.5 documentationAug 04 12:33
scientesI have a setup.pyAug 04 12:33
MinceRicAug 04 12:33
scienteshow to do i create a package and install itAug 04 12:33
scientesthat is all I want to knowAug 04 12:33
scientesmy script only can find the package if I copy it INTO the package folderAug 04 12:33
MinceRiirc the packages setup.py uses can create packages in a few formatsAug 04 12:34
scientesI like go where the language forces this to be a simple processAug 04 12:34
scienteswithout too many abstractionsAug 04 12:34
MinceRlol no genericsAug 04 12:34
scientesTBH I haven't used goAug 04 12:35
scientesbut the way it handles packages is geniusAug 04 12:35
scientesbecause it is zero abstractionsAug 04 12:35

scientesOK, so there this package is funny I guessAug 04 12:36
scientesit has a subodule valentycore.usbcore Aug 04 12:36
scientesthat doesn't get installedAug 04 12:36

scientescan I just copy this directory tree somewhere?Aug 04 12:37

schestowitz[12:30] <scientes> why is it so hard to install python modules?Aug 04 13:02
schestowitzsounds like perlAug 04 13:03
scienteslike I understand the C rules, but the abstractions are the #1 reason that C code is not reusableAug 04 13:03
scientesbecause your program always ends up depending on your build systemAug 04 13:03
MinceRif you abhor abstractions so much, why don't you use machine code?Aug 04 13:04
scientesMinceR, turing complete languages always have abstractyionsAug 04 13:04
scientesthe point is to wirely chose themAug 04 13:04
scientes*wiselyAug 04 13:04
scientesactually the C standard does not have these abstractionsAug 04 13:05
scientesit all comes from the preprocessorAug 04 13:05
scienteswhich is a totally different languageAug 04 13:05
MinceRC without cpp isn't very usableAug 04 13:05
scientesit just needs better abractions, like an infinite treeAug 04 13:06
scientesinstead of a flat function namespaceAug 04 13:06
kingoffranceposix might have rules for e.g. shared libraries, c is neutral on lots of thingsAug 04 13:06
kingoffrancedlopen() and dynamic linking i suspect are all beyond c lang itselfAug 04 13:07
schestowitzc is simpleAug 04 13:08
schestowitzcpp is hard (to debug, study code that isn't yours...)Aug 04 13:08
schestowitzc is OK for code monkeys like greg k-hAug 04 13:09
schestowitzthey now debate rustAug 04 13:09
schestowitzas if mozilla idiocy hosted by Microsoft is what the kernel should be controlled byAug 04 13:09
schestowitzsee the CoC of rustAug 04 13:09
scientesrust has alot of the c++ problemsAug 04 13:09
schestowitzit's excluding by designAug 04 13:09
scienteslike they removed float128 for no reason at allAug 04 13:09
scienteswhen llvm supports float128Aug 04 13:09
scientesrust also throws llvm-ir at llvmAug 04 13:10
scientesjust tons and tons of irAug 04 13:10
scientesit is nutsAug 04 13:10
scientesand expects llvm to clean it all upAug 04 13:10
schestowitzllvm is a bad yardstick for me for several reasonsAug 04 13:21
schestowitzthere's this wave of corporate/military takeover in the digital domain/realmAug 04 13:22
schestowitzthey came from behind/were left behindAug 04 13:22
schestowitznow they liaise with their budget to pull aheadAug 04 13:22
schestowitzand to regain their stupid full-spectrum dominanceAug 04 13:22
schestowitzllvm is part of itAug 04 13:22
schestowitzgithub anotherAug 04 13:22
schestowitzllvm uses github and problematic licenceAug 04 13:23
schestowitzyou know who will control it, with licence as well ad key devsAug 04 13:23
schestowitzibm taking over red hat another step in this directionAug 04 13:23
schestowitzmany gcc devs are red hat and suseAug 04 13:23

DaemonFC[m]<TechrightsBot-tr "www.hindustantimes.com | ‘Really"> LOLAug 04 20:29
DaemonFC[m]VERY early. According to Detective Ian.Aug 04 20:29
DaemonFC[m]Rick wasn't, strictly speaking, gay, if you notice the details here.Aug 04 20:29
DaemonFC[m]The second description shows that he was watching a 10 year old girl being raped by an adult man.Aug 04 20:30
DaemonFC[m]I'm sure that homophobes would love to paint this as "some gay chomo", but it's really obviously not that simple.Aug 04 20:30
DaemonFC[m]My guess is that the guy is just a complete freak who would take whatever he could get, and if that was Mr. Wong it was Mr. Wong.Aug 04 20:31
DaemonFC[m]Probably met him on Grindr or something.Aug 04 20:32
DaemonFC[m]Like John would.Aug 04 20:32
DaemonFC[m]It's much, much easier to get random men to agree to casual sex, so it follows that people who are a total freak of nature and have sex with other men are more of an opportunist than gay.Aug 04 20:32
DaemonFC[m]Maybe they want something right now and they don't want a lot of barriers in the way. So you open Grindr and your phone starts exploding, and Mr. Wong is the one he meets and it turns out that Wong is another person with the same psychological profile as Rick.Aug 04 20:33
DaemonFC[m]John's perversions were what sent me over the edge because I had told him repeatedly "Do whatever you want at this point, just don't bring it into our house." then he does.Aug 04 20:35
DaemonFC[m]The guy he brought home could have done a hell of a lot better than John, but it seems lik there's a lot of that on Grindr.Aug 04 20:35
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: Grindr is probably spreading COVID-19 like it does everything else.Aug 04 20:36

DaemonFC[m]I ran into an article on poz dot com where they were screaming at people not to hook up while the pandemic was raging.Aug 04 20:36
DaemonFC[m]I said to myself, "Well, if HIV didn't scare them, what would?".Aug 04 20:37
DaemonFC[m]That publication is such a fucking Pharma astroturf it's not even funny.Aug 04 20:37
DaemonFC[m]Fake AIDS activist Peter Staley runs it and he takes a lot of Pharma money and he pretends like he's some kind of OG AIDS victim who fought the man.Aug 04 20:37
DaemonFC[m]It's just pathetic. Aug 04 20:38
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, I used a gang term, because it's the mentality.Aug 04 20:38
DaemonFC[m]You know, "I survived the streets back in the day. 1970s Chicago. What do you got? Pussy!"Aug 04 20:39
DaemonFC[m]Nobody fucks with them because of "respect".Aug 04 20:39
DaemonFC[m]So that's how a lot of the older people with HIV who survived the 1980s act.Aug 04 20:39
DaemonFC[m]He wrote a self-aggrandizing documentary called How to Survive a Plague.Aug 04 20:41
DaemonFC[m]Step 1. Have a body chemistry that slows down HIV due to accident of birth.Aug 04 20:41
DaemonFC[m]Step 2. Be rich and profiteer from Big Pharma and let them slip you drugs while everyone else dies.Aug 04 20:41
DaemonFC[m]This guy is just a fucking fuck and he manages to actually convince people that he's not. Aug 04 20:42
DaemonFC[m]There's a mutant gene that results in HIV having a harder time invading cells, which white Europeans tend to have a single or double copy of approximately 4% of the time (single) or 1.2% of the time (double).Aug 04 20:44
DaemonFC[m]It can slow down HIV to the point where some people never progress to AIDS or it takes 20 or 30 years for it to happen even without medication.Aug 04 20:45
DaemonFC[m]Asians just don't have the gene at all, really.Aug 04 20:45
DaemonFC[m]I have the gene mutation.Aug 04 20:48
DaemonFC[m]I paid for a genetic profile after I became suspicious that several people I was involved with all went on to die and had it while they were with me and I don't have it.Aug 04 20:50
DaemonFC[m]I didn't use one of those things that requires a EULA though.Aug 04 20:50
DaemonFC[m]I went through my doctor's office. So theoretically the genetic profile is more private that way.Aug 04 20:51
DaemonFC[m]It's kind of scary how genetic testing "apps" are out there where they send you a kit and you agree that your DNA is their intellectual property.Aug 04 20:51
DaemonFC[m]They can do all sorts of unethical studies with it and you can't stop them at that point.Aug 04 20:52
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: They've been looking for a "gay gene" forever. Why? What would they do with it when they found one? Christians get a fetal DNA test and if they don't like what they see, it's off to the abortion clinic?Aug 04 20:53
DaemonFC[m]The producers of South Park are actually very opposed to abortion, and if you look at the context of their abortion jokes it shows.Aug 04 20:54
DaemonFC[m]I'm not terribly thrilled with it. Cartman was correct when he said "It's the ultimate life cheat. You're cheating nature itself and you're cheating that little guy right out of a chance at life.". But goes on to explain that the major reason why white women get ahead is that if they get pregnant in high school or college and don't want it to interfere, they go to the abortion clinic, while telling minorities thatAug 04 20:57
DaemonFC[m]abortion is wrong and a despicable way to sleaze out of responsibility for your actions.Aug 04 20:57
DaemonFC[m]So the end result it that whites just keep racking up education and higher salaries while black and brown people get babies that they can't afford and flip hamburgers and have to take welfare. Aug 04 20:58
DaemonFC[m]The very least that comes from not having kids if you still end up in a dead end job is that at least you have a fighting chance to keep your head above water.Aug 04 21:00
MinceRyeah, you're cheating that little guy right out of a lifetime of suffering, trapped in a body that hardly works, on a planet infested with humans, forming a society that fails hardAug 04 21:00

MinceRindeedAug 04 21:01
MinceRbut humans insist on itAug 04 21:01
DaemonFC[m]If the guy next door is getting $5 more in food stamps.Aug 04 21:01
MinceRit's not just the billionaires eitherAug 04 21:01
MinceRthere's also the constant fight so people get to run other people's lives and/or get other people to run their livesAug 04 21:02
MinceRthe constant effort to brainwash children to induct them into some cult before they have a chance to defend their mindsAug 04 21:02
DaemonFC[m]I'd say that in our current system, abortion is the lesser evil if you've really got one on the way you can't take care of. If people want to make abortion unnecessary, they need better social programs or higher wages, or both.Aug 04 21:03
DaemonFC[m]The abortion clinics really serve the people who say they won't pay higher taxes for better social welfare programs and it's like that scene from Scarface where he gets drunk and says "YOU NEED PEOPLE LIKE ME SO YOU CAN POINT YOUR FUCKING FINGERS AND SAY....'THAT'S THE BAD GUY!'".Aug 04 21:04
kingoffrancelolAug 04 21:05
kingoffrancethats in a restaurant IIRCAug 04 21:05
DaemonFC[m]Yeah it was. Second best scene in the movie, after the ending where he busts out a machine gun and says "SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!".Aug 04 21:06
DaemonFC[m]I think one of my favorite movie scenes though was in Die Hard where he sends Hans Gruber's dead henchman back up the elevator in a Santa Claus hat.Aug 04 21:07
DaemonFC[m]IIRC, they fill it with bullets before realizing it's not John McClane and then Gruber reads the note in a German accent. "Now I have a machine gun. Ho ho ho....".Aug 04 21:08
DaemonFC[m]<kingoffrance "lol"> My mom doesn't get any of my references.Aug 04 21:10
DaemonFC[m]When we were in court after I had my attorney negotiate my plea deal, and I was waiting to talk to the judge, mom asked which ones were the prosecutors.Aug 04 21:11
DaemonFC[m]I said, "Oh Hans Gruber and Anubis from the cafe scene in Stargate SG-1 over there.".Aug 04 21:11
DaemonFC[m]I had to explain what Die Hard and Stargate SG-1 were.Aug 04 21:12
MinceRwell, contraception is even better than abortionAug 04 21:15
MinceRbut it doesn't always workAug 04 21:16
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: Well, since you have to go to a doctor for the pill, but not for Plan B, I know of women who make the guy wear a condom and then just take a Plan B pill the morning after each time they have sex.Aug 04 21:17
DaemonFC[m]Because the doctor visits can really get expensive.Aug 04 21:17
DaemonFC[m]More so than just paying $15 every time you have sex to get a pill.Aug 04 21:17
DaemonFC[m]If you don't have insurance, it can cost $400 or more 4 times a year to go to the doctor to get refills. Aug 04 21:18
DaemonFC[m]It's a big scam, really.Aug 04 21:18
DaemonFC[m]Then with Trump gutting the ACA, your employer can invoke Christian Sharia Law on your healthcare plan.Aug 04 21:18
DaemonFC[m]Depending on the state. Illinois passed a law requiring contraceptive coverage in all employer plans with no religious exemption.Aug 04 21:19

DaemonFC[m]MinceR: I got another mechanic that asked why I was using 0w30 oil in my old Impala.Aug 04 21:21
DaemonFC[m]I said, "Well, as for flow rate, it doesn't make much difference 3/4ths of the year in Waukegan, but in winter it can mean the difference between the oil taking 5 seconds and 25 seconds to reach the top of the engine. Plus there are fewer impurities that cause wear. I'm trying to make sure this thing lasts a while.".Aug 04 21:23
DaemonFC[m]The sooner you get oil to all parts of the engine, the quicker it's not running dry, basically.Aug 04 21:24
DaemonFC[m]So with most cars that see any sort of extreme cold weather, it's not a bad idea to use 0wWhatever. Aug 04 21:24
DaemonFC[m]They only make it in synthetic so that's what I'm using.Aug 04 21:25
DaemonFC[m]It seems rather stupid to be running an engine that's old with a lot of miles anyway and showing some upper end wear and not do something relatively cheap to try to stop it from getting worse.Aug 04 21:25
DaemonFC[m]These engines could have gone so much longer, at least the really expensive metal stuff, if GM had specced 0w30 and nothing else from the factory.Aug 04 21:27
DaemonFC[m]I've basically been getting it rebuilt in pieces.Aug 04 21:27
DaemonFC[m]All that cheap plastic junk started to go last year.Aug 04 21:28
DaemonFC[m]It's in there again with this stupid upper intake right now. Aug 04 21:28
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: Before Austin beat me up I was going to work on his van for him.Aug 04 21:29
DaemonFC[m]I managed to diagnose the problem. It was sensor wiring that had become exposed and you could reach down in there and pull the sensor right out. Not easily. But a new sensor was like $50 and all the shops wanted $200. So he was driving this thing around with the check engine light on and it would stall out every time he went through the car wash or a through a puddle.Aug 04 21:30
DaemonFC[m]The independents want about $100-150 per labor hour in my neck of the woods, and dealer labor on all of these "modern" pieces of shit with the really "sophisticated" electronics and computer software want like $450 an hour.Aug 04 21:31
DaemonFC[m]So you give up and definitely get rid of the car on schedule now.Aug 04 21:32
DaemonFC[m]The cars now are a rolling computer. You get into an accident and it may not even be worth fixing it if the sensors need recalibrating, even if the damage isn't that bad.Aug 04 21:32
DaemonFC[m]Only certain shops can do it. It requires expensive software and space to calibrate things and you can look at a $2,000 repair bill to recalibrate a lane departure warning system that the government is going to make mandatory.Aug 04 21:33
DaemonFC[m]This is terrible. Just terrible.Aug 04 21:33
MinceRcars have been rolling computers for agesAug 04 21:34
DaemonFC[m]I hated lane departure warning on that loaner car I got from Kia while my car was in the shop.Aug 04 21:34
kingoffranceyes, that why i never got into cars -- too much parts + tools + computers now tooAug 04 21:35
kingoffranceand you need space to work Aug 04 21:35
DaemonFC[m]I go to merge onto the expressway and the "safety feature" almost got me killed because _I_ know I have room to merge and I'm running out of ramp, right?Aug 04 21:35
DaemonFC[m]The computer decides it's not safe to merge because what I consider an acceptable margin of distance for a given speed came into conflict with the government, so the computer tries to take the steering wheel away from me and I almost had a head on crash with those water buckets.Aug 04 21:36
kingoffrancethat sounds like it would not work well in california :)Aug 04 21:36
DaemonFC[m]It doesn't work well in Chicago.Aug 04 21:37
kingoffrancethere is no "safe"Aug 04 21:37
DaemonFC[m]I can only wait to see the hilarity that ensues when it's mandatory and you have everyone fighting their car at once. Aug 04 21:37
DaemonFC[m]This 40 car pile up brought to you by the government.Aug 04 21:37
DaemonFC[m]The government. Always knows what's best!Aug 04 21:37
DaemonFC[m]You can still steer, but it fights you, and you have to really lean on the steering wheel to make it turn. Aug 04 21:38
DaemonFC[m]So your focus goes from how to merge safely to how to fight for the wheel.Aug 04 21:38
DaemonFC[m]It's not good. Not good.Aug 04 21:39
DaemonFC[m]They're trying to make driving your own car such a pain in the ass that you give up and take Elon Musk's autodrive which runs into parked police cruisers and hits a pedestrian while Tesla goes "Oops, thought she was a plastic bag.".Aug 04 21:40
DaemonFC[m]They say the computer driving the car is safer. It's not. I have not once hit a pedestrian and then told the cop "Gee sorry, my brain registered her as a plastic shopping bag.".Aug 04 21:41
DaemonFC[m]They would have taken my license away and charged me with a crime.Aug 04 21:41
superkuhFully autonomous is obviously infeasible in the near future for a car generally licensed to travel around the USA. It's just that much of the USA spends 1/3 of the year under snow. And during those times the absolute road markings and absolute position mean nothing. Only human intuition will guide you to the emergent paths in uncleared snow. These conditions last for weeks or months (road surface markings not visible, edges of roads change pAug 04 21:43
superkuhosition due to snow bank, etc).Aug 04 21:43
