schestowitz | [14:22] <schestowitz> There was also “Watson Business Machines” in Poland | Sep 04 14:24 |
schestowitz | [14:22] <schestowitz> IBM STILL uses the brand Watson | Sep 04 14:24 |

schestowitz | I posted this in the 'wrong' channel | Sep 04 14:24 |
gustaf | lol US kids used to give the "roman salute" when reciting the pledge of allegience | Sep 04 14:25 |
gustaf | means nothing | Sep 04 14:25 |
schestowitz-TR | but check the context | Sep 04 14:25 |
gustaf | that IBM helped plan the Holocaust is a fact, but so what | Sep 04 14:25 |
psydruid | Watson Business Machines in Breslau (Wrocław)? | Sep 04 14:26 |
gustaf | plenty of companies, both in Germany and elsewhere helped | Sep 04 14:26 |
schestowitz-TR | he gave that when he met the Nazi Party in Germany | Sep 04 14:26 |
schestowitz-TR | Reportedly did a half salute | Sep 04 14:26 |
gustaf | also, using software for whatever purpose is freedom 0... | Sep 04 14:26 |
MinceR | they were evil criminals back then, they're evil criminals now | Sep 04 14:26 |
schestowitz-TR | gustaf: the documentary names other companies | Sep 04 14:26 |
schestowitz-TR | this clip is about the IBM role | Sep 04 14:26 |
MinceR | also, they lecture people on using allegedly offensive words regardless of context | Sep 04 14:27 |

MinceR | ibm | Sep 04 14:27 |
schestowitz-TR | them | Sep 04 14:27 |
MinceR | also, apparently using words like "master" is worse than helping the nazis kill millions of jews | Sep 04 14:27 |

schestowitz-TR | it's honourable because they wear suits | Sep 04 14:27 |
schestowitz-TR | gustaf: you try to trivialise Watson being buddies with Hitler | Sep 04 14:28 |
gustaf | no | Sep 04 14:28 |
schestowitz-TR | it was his second-largest client worldwide | Sep 04 14:28 |
gustaf | so? | Sep 04 14:29 |
gustaf | that was over 70 years ago | Sep 04 14:29 |
schestowitz-TR | Watson had been a fraudster even before he ran IBM | Sep 04 14:29 |

gustaf | but everyone loves IKEA | Sep 04 14:29 |
schestowitz-TR | really? | Sep 04 14:29 |
gustaf | being a Nazi was legitimate pre 1939 | Sep 04 14:29 |
gustaf | yeah | Sep 04 14:29 |
schestowitz-TR | Sweden was neutral | Sep 04 14:29 |
schestowitz-TR | so people favour brands like Volvo and stuff | Sep 04 14:29 |
schestowitz-TR | but it's not like what IBM did was normal | Sep 04 14:30 |
schestowitz-TR | gustaf: so was being a Trump supporter | Sep 04 14:30 |
schestowitz-TR | even after the insurrection | Sep 04 14:30 |
gustaf | Sweden allowed the export of valueble iron ore to Germany | Sep 04 14:30 |
gustaf | they allowed transit of occupying troops from Norway to Germanu | Sep 04 14:30 |
psydruid | so Sweden was "neutral"? | Sep 04 14:30 |
gustaf | also Sweden deported lots of Baltic citizens to the USSR | Sep 04 14:31 |
gustaf | psydruid: yep! | Sep 04 14:31 |

MinceR | afaik IKEA isn't lecturing anyone over using the word "master" as a branch name | Sep 04 14:31 |

MinceR | > Historian and author Edwin Black, in his best selling book on the topic, IBM and the Holocaust, maintains that the seizure of the German subsidiary was a ruse. He writes: "The company was not looted, its leased machines were not seized, and [IBM] continued to receive money funneled through its subsidiary in Geneva."[91] In his book he argues that IBM was an active and enthusiastic supplier to the | Sep 04 14:32 |
MinceR | Nazi regime long after they should have stopped dealing with them. Even after the invasion of Poland, IBM continued to service and expand services to the Third Reich in Poland and Germany.[91] The seizure of IBM came after Pearl Harbor and the US Declaration of War, in 1941. | Sep 04 14:32 |
gustaf | still guilt by association for the modern IBM | Sep 04 14:34 |

schestowitz-TR | even IBM isn't trying to do that | Sep 04 14:41 |

schestowitz-TR | AND | Sep 04 14:41 |
schestowitz-TR | The occasional denials | Sep 04 14:41 |
schestowitz-TR | It got IWB, a former Cuban Jew, to help them with this denying propaganda | Sep 04 14:41 |

schestowitz-TR | MinceR: That too | Sep 04 14:42 |
schestowitz-TR | "master"" offensive, "Watson" OK | Sep 04 14:42 |
schestowitz-TR | pay extra for the HEY HI brand | Sep 04 14:42 |
MinceR | maybe to maintain compliance with ibm's values, we should change the name of the default branch to "hitler" | Sep 04 14:42 |

schestowitz-TR | but then she started shilling IBM | Sep 04 17:33 |
*blitzed (~blitzed@5cuqmgidhvnxq.irc) has joined #techrights | Sep 04 17:33 | |
schestowitz-TR | sometimes she still does | Sep 04 17:33 |
schestowitz-TR | she needed money | Sep 04 17:33 |
schestowitz-TR | so IBM-funded publisher paid her to do puff pieces | Sep 04 17:34 |
schestowitz-TR | in turn, she neglected FOSS Force | Sep 04 17:34 |
schestowitz-TR | because she failed to raise money from readers for it | Sep 04 17:34 |
schestowitz-TR | and she is poor | Sep 04 17:34 |
schestowitz-TR | then she joined OSI board | Sep 04 17:34 |
schestowitz-TR | didn't like it all that much | Sep 04 17:34 |
schestowitz-TR | and then got absorbed by those IBM-sponsored NGOs | Sep 04 17:34 |
schestowitz-TR | so suddently she lectures me about how tuxmachines should not have [Ed]itorial comments | Sep 04 17:35 |
schestowitz-TR | Which I told her, OK... then I stopped | Sep 04 17:35 |
schestowitz-TR | but she then drifted more and more into that anti-RMS lobby | Sep 04 17:35 |
schestowitz-TR | which basically has some overlaps in freenode too (at the time) | Sep 04 17:35 |
schestowitz-TR | we considered leaving freenode | Sep 04 17:35 |
schestowitz-TR | Bruce Byfield sort of 'took over' FOSS Force | Sep 04 17:36 |
*activelow has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Sep 04 17:36 | |
schestowitz-TR | and we know where he stands on Mono, OOXML, Novell, Microsoft | Sep 04 17:36 |
schestowitz-TR | going back to the days of Boycott Novell | Sep 04 17:36 |
schestowitz-TR | so basically we lost FOSS Force to that "group"... which is IMHO "useful idiots" of big surveillance | Sep 04 17:36 |
schestowitz-TR | the same people who control OSI and LF | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | LF lobbied a lot behind the scenes against FSF via RMS | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | hiding this as a "social" issue | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | it was a corporate/finance issue | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | we're better off not trying to appease these people | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | or blasting them | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | we need to communicate what they are doing | Sep 04 17:37 |
*blitzed has quit (connection closed) | Sep 04 17:37 | |
schestowitz-TR | how they are doing this | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | and how to confront that | Sep 04 17:37 |
schestowitz-TR | e.g. self-hosting | Sep 04 17:38 |
*blitzed (~blitzed@5cuqmgidhvnxq.irc) has joined #techrights | Sep 04 17:38 | |
schestowitz-TR | and reducing centralisation by all means | Sep 04 17:38 |
schestowitz-TR | consolidation in this context would ALWAYS mean big business or gov. | Sep 04 17:38 |
schestowitz-TR | things like "trust" chains, where it boils down to DNS, LF, Google etc. | Sep 04 17:38 |
schestowitz-TR | Gemini is, for now, very grassroots | Sep 04 17:38 |
schestowitz-TR | not a single sponsor there, anywhere... | Sep 04 17:39 |
schestowitz-TR | it is very European, with many Frenchies and US geeks (old timers, not hipsters) involved | Sep 04 17:39 |
schestowitz-TR | that may change over time | Sep 04 17:39 |
blitzed | hiya schestowitz-TR, yes Gemini is beautiful =^_^= now if only it'd catch on more! | Sep 04 17:39 |

activelow | tried some video game on framebuffer, and surprise SDL rendered graphical output and sound were ok, but totally killed keyboard input - reset | Sep 04 17:52 |
DaemonFC | But it's okay because they have this thing called a website and these other things called a printed schedule and working ticket machines at every station. | Sep 04 17:52 |
DaemonFC | Metra could learn a lot from them, apparently. | Sep 04 17:52 |
activelow | links -g graphical browser ok too, and of cause the usual curses text ui stuff | Sep 04 17:52 |
DaemonFC | Metra stopped printing schedules because of "COVID". They keep changing their schedule based on what customer flow is looking like. | Sep 04 17:53 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: all "apps" sucks | Sep 04 17:53 |
schestowitz-TR | "apps" means "AVOID" | Sep 04 17:53 |
DaemonFC | And they make it so you can buy a $10 all day pass instead of the usual $8-10 each ride, but only with the app. | Sep 04 17:53 |

schestowitz-TR | old and vulnerable people don't have "Apps" | Sep 04 17:55 |
schestowitz-TR | so they discriminate against many | Sep 04 17:55 |
schestowitz-TR | bring up disabled people too | Sep 04 17:55 |
schestowitz-TR | and watch them sweat | Sep 04 17:55 |

schestowitz-TR | they were supposed to phone back from management or should phone back around Monday | Sep 04 17:56 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: so tell them about people too poor to have "smart" phone | Sep 04 17:56 |
schestowitz-TR | and see what they say | Sep 04 17:57 |
schestowitz-TR | and you need to act asasertive so they are under a burden to justify the discrimination | Sep 04 17:57 |
schestowitz-TR | you need to fight their "privacy tax" | Sep 04 17:58 |

schestowitz-TR | so you can ride a TRAIN anonymously | Sep 04 17:58 |
schestowitz-TR | BUT not the subway (Tube) | Sep 04 17:58 |
schestowitz-TR | which makes no sense at all | Sep 04 17:58 |
schestowitz-TR | IIRC, in London you might even need this spying card for each bus ride | Sep 04 17:59 |
DaemonFC | You could ride anonymously, but you'd have to buy one of the paper tickets from the conductor or the ticketing agent, or a machine if there is one that works. | Sep 04 17:59 |
DaemonFC | They stopped bothering to fix the machines on the south side of Chicago. | Sep 04 17:59 |
DaemonFC | People just break them and urinate on them again. | Sep 04 18:00 |
schestowitz-TR | same in Berlin | Sep 04 18:00 |
schestowitz-TR | there's nobody to talk to | Sep 04 18:00 |
schestowitz-TR | and it's also unhelpful to visitors | Sep 04 18:00 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, I heard that much of Europe has gone from everyone gets checked to spot checks. | Sep 04 18:00 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: that's the price to pay for your population being crap, which is a separate problem | Sep 04 18:01 |
DaemonFC | And if you don't have a ticket and they spot check you there's a massive penalty. | Sep 04 18:01 |
schestowitz-TR | some have gates | Sep 04 18:01 |
DaemonFC | Like here, you just say "Ooops, I forgot, can I buy one from you?" and you don't get fined or thrown off the train unless you just refuse to purchase one at that point. | Sep 04 18:01 |
schestowitz-TR | but it depends on the type of ride and city/time of day | Sep 04 18:02 |
schestowitz-TR | some places don't let you purchasase inside | Sep 04 18:02 |
schestowitz-TR | in trains they can print one | Sep 04 18:03 |
schestowitz-TR | to buy anonymously a ticket, with cash, you need to go to the station | Sep 04 18:03 |
schestowitz-TR | for football they ask you your name | Sep 04 18:03 |
schestowitz-TR | so attending a match anonymously is possible only through scalpers | Sep 04 18:04 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Metra had a scandal some years back where they threw a 15 year old girl, or something like that, off a train for no ticket. | Sep 04 18:04 |
DaemonFC | They abandoned her in an empty station in the south side late at night and she got raped. | Sep 04 18:04 |
schestowitz-TR | ouch | Sep 04 18:04 |
DaemonFC | So now they have a policy not to throw anyone off the train until there's Metra cops waiting at a station. | Sep 04 18:04 |
schestowitz-TR | they would have to pay lots in compensation | Sep 04 18:05 |
DaemonFC | They did, which is why they don't throw you off unless they can get Metra cops out there to meet you now. | Sep 04 18:05 |
schestowitz-TR | so it's about money | Sep 04 18:05 |
schestowitz-TR | not ethics | Sep 04 18:05 |

DaemonFC | She'll be pregnant in a month and Illinois' answer is just get rid of it, and whichever one of them passed her around and left her that way will just get away with it. The whole conversation was just revolting to listen to and they were so loud with it that you could hear it on the whole train car. Thought about calling the police, but they're lazy and corrupt and they'd probably transfer me around ten times and say "What do you want us to do | Sep 04 18:09 |
DaemonFC | about it?" and hang up. | Sep 04 18:09 |
schestowitz-TR | yeah | Sep 04 18:10 |
schestowitz-TR | they did nothing illegal | Sep 04 18:10 |
DaemonFC | I'm torn between sympathy and no sympathy. Some people just have to make their own mistakes. Illinois mandates fact-based sex ed so it's not a mystery what could happen if you take risks. | Sep 04 18:11 |
schestowitz-TR | tell them, "I got a doughnut on a fishinf rod right here" | Sep 04 18:11 |
schestowitz-TR | they'd come right over | Sep 04 18:11 |

DaemonFC | I wonder how many incidents onboard public transit where some criminal felon gets on and starts blowing people away (including a Metra cop at least once), could have been stopped by an armed citizen. | Sep 04 18:13 |
DaemonFC | The whole reason you pass all of the background checks is because you're not crazy and you don't have a felony record. | Sep 04 18:14 |
schestowitz-TR | that assumes criminals respect these laws | Sep 04 18:14 |
DaemonFC | I'm surprised there aren't more incidents on Metra, to be perfectly honest, given some of the areas that they serve. | Sep 04 18:14 |
schestowitz-TR | do they have metal detectors at each and every station? | Sep 04 18:14 |
schestowitz-TR | for bullets? | Sep 04 18:14 |
DaemonFC | No, anyone can get on with backpacks or luggage or anything. | Sep 04 18:15 |
schestowitz-TR | you can also fire from non-metal weapons | Sep 04 18:15 |
DaemonFC | No security screening at all. | Sep 04 18:15 |
schestowitz-TR | so this law is meaningless | Sep 04 18:15 |
schestowitz-TR | nobody enforces it | Sep 04 18:15 |
DaemonFC | And most trains stop at 20 stations or more along the way, so even if they had security at the main stations, it wouldn't matter. | Sep 04 18:15 |
DaemonFC | Some nutbag could wait for the first one with no screenings and get on there. | Sep 04 18:15 |
schestowitz-TR | they should rectally examine each pasenger | Sep 04 18:16 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, The movie Source Code was pretty much accurate, except that it was filmed on several different metra lines and they didn't call it metra. | Sep 04 18:18 |
DaemonFC | They changed it to "Chicago Commuter Rail" for the movie. | Sep 04 18:18 |
DaemonFC | But the guy just walks in and plants a bomb in one of the restrooms or something and then gets off at the next stop. | Sep 04 18:19 |
DaemonFC | Also, they changed some other things around. | Sep 04 18:19 |
DaemonFC | There's no "locked compartments" where the conductors have guns or anything. | Sep 04 18:19 |
DaemonFC | The spot where the train always ends up blowing up until he figures it out is near the 35th Lou Jones stop on the Rock Island District next to I-94. | Sep 04 18:20 |

DaemonFC | They would stuff so many people in there that the train could barely get the doors shut. | Sep 04 18:22 |

schestowitz-TR | some "RETIREMENT", eh? | Sep 04 18:31 |
DaemonFC | So it wasn't just one guy and the lockdowns didn't matter much and nobody is going to tolerate them again. | Sep 04 18:31 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Mom's landlord moved to a gated community in Florida to hide from it. | Sep 04 18:32 |
schestowitz-TR | makes sense | Sep 04 18:32 |
schestowitz-TR | old people there do take it seriously | Sep 04 18:32 |
DaemonFC | I told her that's like hiding from the serial killer in a horror movie behind all the rusty chainsaws. | Sep 04 18:32 |
schestowitz-TR | even some trump voters | Sep 04 18:32 |
DaemonFC | Oh, no he didn't. | Sep 04 18:32 |
schestowitz-TR | they're not ALL senile | Sep 04 18:33 |
DaemonFC | He had some of his rich friends over for a dinner party and all 7 of them had it. | Sep 04 18:33 |
DaemonFC | Because 1 person showed up and had it. | Sep 04 18:33 |
DaemonFC | This was way, way before Delta too. | Sep 04 18:33 |
schestowitz-TR | that makes no sense | Sep 04 18:33 |
schestowitz-TR | gated community | Sep 04 18:34 |
schestowitz-TR | but then party of 7 | Sep 04 18:34 |
DaemonFC | If you're going to hide from the virus, hide from the virus. | Sep 04 18:34 |
schestowitz-TR | does his brain get cut in half? | Sep 04 18:34 |
DaemonFC | He's a landlord. | Sep 04 18:34 |
schestowitz-TR | we hide forom it | Sep 04 18:34 |
DaemonFC | You know "I'm a job creator. I cheat on my taxes and extract rents from productive people with the best of them! I voted for President Trump!" | Sep 04 18:34 |
schestowitz-TR | it is not hard for us | Sep 04 18:34 |
DaemonFC | Irony is a landlord who sits on his ass and waits for checks in the mail criticizing people on welfare for sitting on their asses and waiting for checks in the mail. | Sep 04 18:35 |
schestowitz-TR | yeah | Sep 04 18:36 |
schestowitz-TR | you are not employed | Sep 04 18:36 |
schestowitz-TR | but you moan about unemployed people | Sep 04 18:36 |
schestowitz-TR | so yeah... I know that type | Sep 04 18:36 |
DaemonFC | There's little risk in being a landlord. You have lawyers to handle evictions, repair men who know how to keep your buildings going just good enough to rent out, and people who work and pay you to live in a building you do nothing except own. | Sep 04 18:37 |
DaemonFC | Even less risk because everyone has to come up with a security deposit. | Sep 04 18:38 |
DaemonFC | So if they ruin anything, you usually are covered by that up to at least the value of a month's worth of rent. | Sep 04 18:38 |
DaemonFC | Really all you need to get rolling as a landlord is some seed money and then you accumulate profit and buy more units and rent those out, and so on. | Sep 04 18:39 |
DaemonFC | And then you consult the Rules of Acquisition, cheapest binding, straight from the planet Ferenginar if you have any further questions. | Sep 04 18:40 |
*alextee has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Sep 04 18:40 | |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Star Trek is great stuff, isn't it? They promote how great socialism is, and then when they find people bittorrenting Star Trek they threaten to sue them into the ground and have them thrown off the internet. | Sep 04 18:41 |
DaemonFC | They created something, damn it, and they deserve to be paid! A lot! | Sep 04 18:41 |
DaemonFC | Speaking of Ferengi, I wonder how the in-laws are doing. | Sep 04 18:44 |
DaemonFC | Buying Sam's Choice drinking water and pouring it into their vending machine to keep up appearances? | Sep 04 18:44 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, At least now I know for sure how to ride the South Shore Line. | Sep 04 18:46 |
DaemonFC | Just forget the app entirely. The vending machines work fine, 100% of the time. | Sep 04 18:46 |

DaemonFC | And you can purchase return tickets at any working machine. | Sep 04 18:47 |
DaemonFC | Cash, even. | Sep 04 18:47 |
schestowitz-TR | true | Sep 04 18:47 |
schestowitz-TR | that is what we do here | Sep 04 18:47 |
schestowitz-TR | or did, before covid | Sep 04 18:47 |
schestowitz-TR | it's called metrolink | Sep 04 18:47 |
DaemonFC | I really like the trains. You get to look at the traffic jams underneath the freeway bridges and laugh at all the idiots stuck in one. | Sep 04 18:48 |
schestowitz-TR | my hands are fast now and I know the gui so purchasing a ticket takes only seconds | Sep 04 18:48 |
DaemonFC | Wasting gas, honking at each other, vacation time ticking away from them, smog.... | Sep 04 18:48 |
schestowitz-TR | it takes longer for the machine to print and return coins (change) | Sep 04 18:48 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: traffic avoidance is how they market public transport | Sep 04 18:49 |
schestowitz-TR | and give better lanes | Sep 04 18:49 |
schestowitz-TR | but the issue is station | Sep 04 18:49 |
schestowitz-TR | esp. if they stop at every one | Sep 04 18:49 |
DaemonFC | The typical car uses about a gallon of gas for every hour idling. Plus they get horrible gas mileage when they stop and go or don't go very fast. | Sep 04 18:49 |
DaemonFC | The best way to drive your car is nonstop going about 60 miles per hour, but that's rarely achievable unless you only use rural highways. | Sep 04 18:50 |
DaemonFC | Even this 3800 V6 will get 34 miles per gallon on a freeway at 60 miles per hour, but once you get into the city it drops to 15-17. | Sep 04 18:50 |
schestowitz-TR | cars are a mental overhead | Sep 04 18:51 |
schestowitz-TR | you don't need to own everything | Sep 04 18:51 |
*alextee (~alextee@fu9znh3xmsrue.irc) has joined #techrights | Sep 04 18:51 | |
schestowitz-TR | it's expensive to maintain and mental clutter | Sep 04 18:51 |
schestowitz-TR | taxis remove much of that | Sep 04 18:51 |
DaemonFC | They've made it so here you kind of do. | Sep 04 18:51 |
schestowitz-TR | you don't even need to worry about road incidents | Sep 04 18:51 |
schestowitz-TR | the driver can dead with that after dropping you off | Sep 04 18:51 |
schestowitz-TR | but taxis are now riskier because of the virus | Sep 04 18:52 |
DaemonFC | But for long hauls involving the freeway, you can cut down on risk, expense, and mental and physical exhaustion by taking the train instead. | Sep 04 18:52 |
DaemonFC | The whole point of taking a vacation or a day trip is to destress. | Sep 04 18:52 |
schestowitz-TR | yeah | Sep 04 18:52 |
DaemonFC | Why would you want to be stuck in traffic honking at other people? | Sep 04 18:52 |
schestowitz-TR | sometimes we take day rider | Sep 04 18:52 |
schestowitz-TR | on days off work, then travel all over | Sep 04 18:52 |
schestowitz-TR | better than taking planes | Sep 04 18:53 |
schestowitz-TR | planes were ok when I was a kd | Sep 04 18:53 |
schestowitz-TR | *kid | Sep 04 18:53 |
schestowitz-TR | each flight had a GOOD meal | Sep 04 18:53 |
schestowitz-TR | better chairs and leg room | Sep 04 18:53 |
schestowitz-TR | then it became all "economic" | Sep 04 18:53 |
DaemonFC | I use apps sometimes, but I don't like doing it. | Sep 04 18:53 |
MinceR | taxis are incredibly expensive | Sep 04 18:53 |
MinceR | and most of them drive like maniacs | Sep 04 18:53 |
schestowitz-TR | and they started treating you like terrorist, presumption of guilt | Sep 04 18:53 |
DaemonFC | Whether they even work at all depend on the expertise of who designed it. | Sep 04 18:54 |
schestowitz-TR | so the time on the ground was awful too | Sep 04 18:54 |
schestowitz-TR | and then you have some Johns touching you | Sep 04 18:54 |
schestowitz-TR | esp. if you are under 15 | Sep 04 18:54 |
schestowitz-TR | MinceR: maybe in budapest | Sep 04 18:54 |
MinceR | yes | Sep 04 18:54 |
schestowitz-TR | you can choose company | Sep 04 18:54 |
MinceR | i can | Sep 04 18:54 |
MinceR | but they're all very expensive | Sep 04 18:55 |
DaemonFC | So they run the entire gamut from not working to working fine, but even if they work fine, there's tracking libraries and crap. | Sep 04 18:55 |
schestowitz-TR | MinceR: cheaper than buying a car | Sep 04 18:55 |
MinceR | and i don't have a big enough sample from the companies i prefer to tell whether their drivers drive less like maniacs | Sep 04 18:55 |
schestowitz-TR | unless you need a taxi every day | Sep 04 18:55 |
MinceR | no, not really | Sep 04 18:55 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, The TSA used to have "VIPR teams". | Sep 04 18:55 |
MinceR | try going out of the city via taxi and you'll find out how expensive it gets | Sep 04 18:55 |
DaemonFC | Basically they squandered tax money to randomly check various stations and things. | Sep 04 18:55 |
schestowitz-TR | yes, I remember | Sep 04 18:55 |
schestowitz-TR | even bus stations | Sep 04 18:55 |

schestowitz-TR | incredible | Sep 04 18:55 |
DaemonFC | So on the off chance a terrorist showed up on the day they were at the Greyhound station one time, then the VIPR team might catch him. | Sep 04 18:56 |
DaemonFC | It was just ridiculous. | Sep 04 18:56 |
schestowitz-TR | MinceR: I know, happened in Cyprus | Sep 04 18:56 |
schestowitz-TR | I nearly missed my flight | Sep 04 18:56 |
schestowitz-TR | took several taxis form city to city, cost me a fortune | Sep 04 18:56 |
schestowitz-TR | I also lost my sunglasses in the process | Sep 04 18:56 |
schestowitz-TR | and then paid for excess baggage | Sep 04 18:56 |
MinceR | of course, people often take taxis to the airport here because nobody thought it would be useful to maybe connect it to the public transport network | Sep 04 18:56 |
DaemonFC | "Those were five hundred dollar sunglasses, asshole!". | Sep 04 18:56 |
DaemonFC | :) | Sep 04 18:57 |
schestowitz-TR | about $2000 | Sep 04 18:57 |
schestowitz-TR | a | Sep 04 18:57 |
schestowitz-TR | *200 | Sep 04 18:57 |
schestowitz-TR | a gift from rianne | Sep 04 18:57 |
MinceR | there are 2 buses that go there, 1 of them is a massive scam | Sep 04 18:57 |
MinceR | but buses in budapest are a health hazard | Sep 04 18:57 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, There's some Ghetto Bus companies. | Sep 04 18:57 |
schestowitz-TR | at least they didn't break so someone else enjoys them in cyprus | Sep 04 18:57 |
MinceR | most of them are mercedes-benzes with the suspension of a wooden toy wagon | Sep 04 18:57 |
MinceR | you can feel every single pebble on the road | Sep 04 18:57 |
DaemonFC | They're mostly for hauling black people around major cities when they can't afford a Greyhound ticket. | Sep 04 18:57 |
schestowitz-TR | MinceR: buses are full of unpleasant people | Sep 04 18:58 |
MinceR | and the roads here are nearly unusably crap | Sep 04 18:58 |
MinceR | that too | Sep 04 18:58 |
schestowitz-TR | a bus without people is OK | Sep 04 18:58 |
DaemonFC | Like, they go from Chicago to Milwaukee for $29 or something. | Sep 04 18:58 |
MinceR | and then the alleged "journalists" are outraged that offroad-capable cars are somehow popular here | Sep 04 18:58 |
schestowitz-TR | buses are build to carry loads of people | Sep 04 18:58 |
MinceR | not a mercedes-benz citaro | Sep 04 18:58 |
schestowitz-TR | they make the false assumption many people without cars can co-exist for a bus ride's length of time | Sep 04 18:58 |
MinceR | or sprinter, though those are crap in a different way | Sep 04 18:58 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Mega Bus or Tornado Bus or whatever is sort of the bus version of Spirit airlines. | Sep 04 18:58 |
DaemonFC | Where all the people pack their shit in trash bags and have bedbugs spilling out of them in the airport. | Sep 04 18:59 |
schestowitz-TR | lol | Sep 04 18:59 |
schestowitz-TR | literal trash bags? | Sep 04 18:59 |
schestowitz-TR | we reuse bags from stores for trash | Sep 04 18:59 |
MinceR | strangely enough, the buses in berlin were fine | Sep 04 19:00 |
MinceR | there's no pathological obsession with low floor buses | Sep 04 19:00 |
MinceR | maybe that's why | Sep 04 19:00 |
schestowitz-TR | those are cheaper | Sep 04 19:00 |
schestowitz-TR | and no suitcases to stuff under | Sep 04 19:00 |
schestowitz-TR | for longer journeys and high-speed driving | Sep 04 19:00 |
schestowitz-TR | with seatbelts and all | Sep 04 19:00 |
schestowitz-TR | the trains in berlin weren't that good or special, but they can go fast | Sep 04 19:01 |
MinceR | and of course public transport is a non-starter outside the city | Sep 04 19:01 |
MinceR | not to mention off-road :> | Sep 04 19:01 |
schestowitz-TR | legs are good | Sep 04 19:01 |
schestowitz-TR | unless you are old and frail | Sep 04 19:01 |
MinceR | yeah, if you like to explore a tiny fraction of the area, and always the same fraction | Sep 04 19:01 |
schestowitz-TR | legs can go around 5 times, on average, the speed of car+traffic | Sep 04 19:02 |
DaemonFC | <schestowitz-TR> literal trash bags? | Sep 04 19:02 |
MinceR | depends on the traffic | Sep 04 19:02 |
DaemonFC | Yes, according to John. | Sep 04 19:02 |
MinceR | i like places where there is no traffic and no people | Sep 04 19:02 |
schestowitz-TR | you can find them not far from here | Sep 04 19:02 |

schestowitz-TR | platt fields might be bigger, but overcrowded and without forest | Sep 04 19:04 |
schestowitz-TR | overcrowded might be ok | Sep 04 19:05 |
schestowitz-TR | if overcrowded by non-human anim,ls | Sep 04 19:05 |
schestowitz-TR | like fowl and rabbits/squirrels | Sep 04 19:05 |
schestowitz-TR | MinceR: maybe those are lawns | Sep 04 19:06 |
schestowitz-TR | fake parks, not nature | Sep 04 19:06 |
MinceR | no, they are not | Sep 04 19:06 |
MinceR | hills and valleys between them that happen to be within budapest's boundaries | Sep 04 19:06 |
schestowitz-TR | so that sucks | Sep 04 19:06 |
MinceR | still, they're accessible (they have far better public transport than the part of the city i live in) and so they're swarming with people | Sep 04 19:06 |
schestowitz-TR | london is like that | Sep 04 19:06 |
schestowitz-TR | all the parks suck | Sep 04 19:06 |
schestowitz-TR | it is mostly grass | Sep 04 19:07 |
schestowitz-TR | green park, hyde park, regents | Sep 04 19:07 |
MinceR | the place i'm speaking about is mostly forest | Sep 04 19:07 |
schestowitz-TR | and too many people and dog droppings | Sep 04 19:07 |

schestowitz-TR | without a car | Sep 04 19:08 |
MinceR | not that hard | Sep 04 19:08 |
MinceR | oh, yeah, without a car, sure | Sep 04 19:08 |
MinceR | but so's everything else | Sep 04 19:08 |
schestowitz-TR | yeah | Sep 04 19:08 |
schestowitz-TR | and cars have massive overhead to a life | Sep 04 19:09 |
MinceR | and the proposed solution is to have billions of humans live in a hive | Sep 04 19:09 |
schestowitz-TR | kids also tend to necessitate them | Sep 04 19:09 |
MinceR | that's not for me | Sep 04 19:09 |
schestowitz-TR | unless you home-school the kids | Sep 04 19:09 |

DaemonFC | And it raises the amount you need to break the poverty line for your household, even though those kids won't earn any money. | Sep 04 19:18 |
kingoffrance | we get fake "jubilees" nowadays | Sep 04 19:18 |
DaemonFC | So it means more strain on you and your budget, and you can't earn more money at some point even though you can have more kids. | Sep 04 19:18 |
schestowitz-TR | recently, biden 'pardoned' severely disabled people | Sep 04 19:18 |
schestowitz-TR | I keep joking about it not because of disabilities | Sep 04 19:18 |
schestowitz-TR | but because the debt lenders know it is lost money | Sep 04 19:18 |
kingoffrance | "They keep pitching Atlas Shrugged, but then they're shocked when individualism catches on and people realize that having kids is not good for them in the short term and don't do it." lol unintended consequences maybe | Sep 04 19:19 |
schestowitz-TR | those people can rarely find any gainful employment | Sep 04 19:19 |
schestowitz-TR | so biden takes the chance to do a winning lap, claiming to forgive people who can never pay back the money regardless | Sep 04 19:19 |
DaemonFC | The recent anti-abortion scramble is to try to shore up the damage they did to their own states and future population growth. | Sep 04 19:19 |
schestowitz-TR | has biden reversed trump's tax breaks the rich yet? :-D :-D | Sep 04 19:19 |
schestowitz-TR | Bye-den | Sep 04 19:19 |
schestowitz-TR | more of the same | Sep 04 19:19 |
DaemonFC | The thinking must go that if they can force more kids on people who didn't mean to have them and would abort them if they could, it'll make up for the birthrate collapse. | Sep 04 19:20 |
DaemonFC | The only problem is those kids will be born into poverty and all sorts of problems that go along with it. | Sep 04 19:20 |
schestowitz-TR | I watch the shitshow :-) | Sep 04 19:20 |
schestowitz-TR | or as Carlin put it | Sep 04 19:20 |

schestowitz-TR | I just need $150 laptops | Sep 04 19:21 |
schestowitz-TR | pay the energy bill and discounted food | Sep 04 19:21 |
schestowitz-TR | our budget for food is about 100 per month | Sep 04 19:21 |
schestowitz-TR | 100 pounds | Sep 04 19:21 |
schestowitz-TR | 3 pounds a day | Sep 04 19:21 |
schestowitz-TR | 2 people | Sep 04 19:21 |
schestowitz-TR | we cook at home, so it's also just water and energy bills | Sep 04 19:22 |
DaemonFC | Borisanaro seems to have you in the same boat. | Sep 04 19:22 |
schestowitz-TR | water+ electricity about 100 a month | Sep 04 19:22 |
DaemonFC | So I'm not sure exactly why you'd laugh. | Sep 04 19:22 |
schestowitz-TR | broadband around 30 a month | Sep 04 19:22 |
DaemonFC | He's taking the NHS and slowly turning it into Obamacare. | Sep 04 19:23 |
schestowitz-TR | so all the basics covered at very little, now that we don't go to the gym either | Sep 04 19:23 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: NHS covers everyone | Sep 04 19:23 |
DaemonFC | For now it does, kind of. | Sep 04 19:23 |
DaemonFC | They budget cut the regions that serve the poor. | Sep 04 19:23 |
DaemonFC | But "everyone is equal", you know. | Sep 04 19:23 |
schestowitz-TR | they attack it yes, | Sep 04 19:24 |
DaemonFC | I wonder if they can take a train and use their benefits in a rich neighborhood to get better treatment. | Sep 04 19:24 |
schestowitz-TR | it has been around for like 70 years | Sep 04 19:24 |
schestowitz-TR | we'll likely change leadership in the coming decade | Sep 04 19:24 |
DaemonFC | Hmm, that's a smaller shopping list than I thought it was. | Sep 04 19:25 |
DaemonFC | I'm throwing Salisbury Steaks in the slow cooker tomorrow. Today we'll just stop at the sandwich shop. | Sep 04 19:25 |
schestowitz-TR | sandwich shop? | Sep 04 19:25 |
DaemonFC | Restaurants are the bonus category until the end of October so we're eating out more than usual. | Sep 04 19:25 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, Potbelly's. | Sep 04 19:25 |
schestowitz-TR | you realise you pay for a couple slices of bread or a bun | Sep 04 19:25 |
schestowitz-TR | for the price of a whole pack | Sep 04 19:26 |
kingoffrance | you also got a sabbath after 6 years, 1 year the land shall have a sabbath rest, jubilee was 7*7 == 49/50. so we get "the lord" law minus the financial rules. you get as much "religion" that doesnt conflict with finance | Sep 04 19:26 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: Restaurants when thousands drop dead per day | Sep 04 19:26 |
kingoffrance | 1 year off work every 6 years? | Sep 04 19:26 |
DaemonFC | What I totally don't get is people going to Subway. | Sep 04 19:26 |

DaemonFC | Then 5% back from Discover because it's a restaurant. | Sep 04 21:19 |
schestowitz-TR | so sad to be in this sector | Sep 04 21:19 |
DaemonFC | They're papering over the inflation for people who are price sensitive. | Sep 04 21:19 |
schestowitz-TR | many places here gave up and shut down | Sep 04 21:19 |
DaemonFC | It really doesn't cost that much if you know all of the ins and outs and take advantage of coupons. | Sep 04 21:20 |
schestowitz-TR | it's cheaper to make at home | Sep 04 21:20 |
DaemonFC | Also, they're hitting up people who buy soda at the restaurant worse than ever. | Sep 04 21:20 |
schestowitz-TR | rianne started making veggie faggots | Sep 04 21:20 |
DaemonFC | The Chinese buffet raised their price for a soda from $2.59 to $3.99. | Sep 04 21:20 |
DaemonFC | And that's regardless of what time of day you go in. But water is free. | Sep 04 21:20 |

schestowitz-TR | tastes almost the same | Sep 04 21:21 |
MinceR | XRevan86: better not look up, then | Sep 04 21:21 |
DaemonFC | Buy two sodas and you just paid for an entire adult buffet that nobody got to eat. | Sep 04 21:21 |
DaemonFC | And it costs them a few pennies in soda syrup. | Sep 04 21:21 |
schestowitz-TR | [21:20] <DaemonFC> And that's regardless of what time of day you go in. But water is free. | Sep 04 21:21 |
schestowitz-TR | for legal reasons | Sep 04 21:21 |
schestowitz-TR | tap water | Sep 04 21:21 |
DaemonFC | The buffet probably makes them 10-15% profit. | Sep 04 21:21 |
schestowitz-TR | depends on the eater | Sep 04 21:22 |
DaemonFC | The soda is probably 90%-95% profit. | Sep 04 21:22 |
schestowitz-TR | they always lose on me | Sep 04 21:22 |
DaemonFC | They water it down too. | Sep 04 21:22 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Yes, they put all of the cheap stuff at the outer edge of the buffets. | Sep 04 21:22 |
schestowitz-TR | when couples come in they make more on the women | Sep 04 21:22 |
schestowitz-TR | their eating capacity is, on average, lower | Sep 04 21:22 |
DaemonFC | Oldest trick in the book. You put cheap stuff like rices, soups, and bread on the outer end of the buffet. | Sep 04 21:22 |
DaemonFC | Then people fill up on that and not expensive veggies, seafood, and meat. | Sep 04 21:23 |
schestowitz-TR | I got for the premium thingsa | Sep 04 21:23 |
schestowitz-TR | again and again | Sep 04 21:23 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, I taught Mandy to work the buffet backwards. | Sep 04 21:23 |
schestowitz-TR | I don't take drinks either | Sep 04 21:23 |
DaemonFC | Start with the meats, veggies, and seafoods, and then end with some rice or noodles on what's left of the plate. | Sep 04 21:23 |
schestowitz-TR | rianne does | Sep 04 21:23 |
DaemonFC | By the time you get there, you use less than 10% of the plate on rice or noodles instead of like 30-40%. | Sep 04 21:24 |
schestowitz-TR | you can always drink water if the binge-eating demands it | Sep 04 21:24 |
DaemonFC | The soda is a double whammy. It is pure profit that also reduces buffet losses. | Sep 04 21:24 |
schestowitz-TR | they can only give you weird looks for declining to order a beverage | Sep 04 21:24 |
DaemonFC | They dial up the CO2 at buffets. | Sep 04 21:24 |
DaemonFC | It's always fizzier than it is anywhere else. | Sep 04 21:24 |

schestowitz-TR | from many people | Sep 04 21:30 |
schestowitz-TR | how true that became | Sep 04 21:30 |
DaemonFC | I can only recall one time I didn't leave a tip. John and I went to that Azar's Big Boy in Fort Wayne for the breakfast buffet and the waitress sat us down and then totally forgot about us. Didn't bus our table, didn't even bring us any silverware. | Sep 04 21:30 |
schestowitz-TR | he got seriously stomach poisoning in taipei and nearly died in hospital.. some shellfish | Sep 04 21:30 |
DaemonFC | I had to go grab silverware for us from a cart that they left unattended. Coffee was at the back where the waitress should go and get it, and got it for everyone but us. | Sep 04 21:30 |
DaemonFC | There was something going on there. | Sep 04 21:30 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe they knew John was a pedo :-) | Sep 04 21:31 |
schestowitz-TR | or that he works for TSA | Sep 04 21:31 |
schestowitz-TR | not sure which one is worse | Sep 04 21:31 |
DaemonFC | So when I got the bill, I wrote "You served everyone else here and not us. I had to do your job, so I am keeping the tip. $0.00". | Sep 04 21:31 |
schestowitz-TR | goo! | Sep 04 21:32 |
schestowitz-TR | good | Sep 04 21:32 |
DaemonFC | Everywher else it's between 18-25%. | Sep 04 21:32 |
schestowitz-TR | I didn't know in US you need to tip bartenders | Sep 04 21:32 |
schestowitz-TR | a colleague had to tell me | Sep 04 21:32 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, it's customary to do so. | Sep 04 21:32 |
schestowitz-TR | here it doesn't work like this | Sep 04 21:32 |
DaemonFC | Why do you think I don't drink in bars? | Sep 04 21:33 |
DaemonFC | It's $5 per beer, and then you have to tip them another buck or two for each drink. :P | Sep 04 21:33 |
schestowitz-TR | to show how rich or 'generous' you are | Sep 04 21:33 |
schestowitz-TR | "hey baby, look how rich I am" | Sep 04 21:33 |
DaemonFC | By the time you get to that, each beer costs you what half a dozen of them do at the grocery store. | Sep 04 21:33 |
schestowitz-TR | "I rented this car for tonight, put on my only suit, will blow my whole salary on fancy name drinks to get yoooou laid" | Sep 04 21:34 |
DaemonFC | Oh yeah. Mom would tell me stories about how Brian drank them out of house and home except she started working all sorts of overtime. | Sep 04 21:34 |
DaemonFC | She'd work more hours, he'd buy more beer. | Sep 04 21:34 |
DaemonFC | He had a second refrigerator in the basement full of beer. | Sep 04 21:34 |
DaemonFC | He also had an emergency stash in the garage. | Sep 04 21:34 |

schestowitz-TR | more cost-efficient and less damage to organs like liver | Sep 04 21:35 |
DaemonFC | Between that and two packs of Kool mentols every day for 46 years. | Sep 04 21:35 |
DaemonFC | No veggies in his diet. Mostly fried food. | Sep 04 21:35 |
schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: that's very young if 'natural causes' and no obesity | Sep 04 21:35 |
DaemonFC | It's amazing he lived to 59. | Sep 04 21:35 |
schestowitz-TR | smoking damages skin and teeth too | Sep 04 21:36 |
schestowitz-TR | so maybe he already looked 70+ | Sep 04 21:36 |
DaemonFC | I would swipe his beer when I lived there. | Sep 04 21:36 |
DaemonFC | He was so drunk all the time that he never kept account of how much he drank. | Sep 04 21:36 |
schestowitz-TR | did he binge? | Sep 04 21:36 |
schestowitz-TR | or drink all day long? | Sep 04 21:36 |

DaemonFC | He'd just sit there and knock them back whenever he was off work. | Sep 04 21:37 |
schestowitz-TR | so he would not be comfortable at work | Sep 04 21:37 |
schestowitz-TR | alcohol is very addictive | Sep 04 21:38 |
schestowitz-TR | not as bad as some othere drugs | Sep 04 21:38 |
schestowitz-TR | so sobriety can become painful | Sep 04 21:38 |
DaemonFC | I told her "Now I know why you guys always went camping instead of anywhere else. By the time the drinking was paid for, all you could afford was $7 a night to rent a campsite at the state park in the same county.". | Sep 04 21:38 |
schestowitz-TR | or maybe he anticipated afterwork | Sep 04 21:38 |
schestowitz-TR | alcohol is not very expensive | Sep 04 21:38 |
DaemonFC | No, certainly not back then. | Sep 04 21:39 |
schestowitz-TR | but heavy drinkers need more drinks to get or keep drunk | Sep 04 21:39 |
schestowitz-TR | so it gets more expensive over time | Sep 04 21:39 |
DaemonFC | I figured it up one time and it was actually cheaper to buy a bottle of beer than a can of Coke at that point. | Sep 04 21:39 |
DaemonFC | Indiana has very low alcohol excise tax. | Sep 04 21:39 |
schestowitz-TR | you can buy large plastic bottles | Sep 04 21:39 |
schestowitz-TR | like 2 lites of cider | Sep 04 21:39 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, you can get those big ones, like 28 ounces or something. | Sep 04 21:40 |
schestowitz-TR | almost same price as Cola Cola (branded) | Sep 04 21:40 |
DaemonFC | They used to put them on the 10 for $10 sale. | Sep 04 21:40 |
schestowitz-TR | very low quality | Sep 04 21:40 |
schestowitz-TR | I'd not dream having one per day | Sep 04 21:40 |
schestowitz-TR | they make them very cheaply somehow... | Sep 04 21:40 |
DaemonFC | Well, what can I tell you Roy. The guy was unrefined, even for the standards of the place where he lived. | Sep 04 21:40 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe he died happy | Sep 04 21:41 |
schestowitz-TR | but your mom was not | Sep 04 21:41 |
DaemonFC | I'm told it was painful and drawn out. | Sep 04 21:41 |
schestowitz-TR | she was not on his "trip" | Sep 04 21:41 |
DaemonFC | It took him from the time his wife dialed 911 to just before the ambulance pulled up to finish dying. | Sep 04 21:41 |
schestowitz-TR | cardiac? | Sep 04 21:41 |
DaemonFC | Yep. | Sep 04 21:42 |
schestowitz-TR | obese? | Sep 04 21:42 |
DaemonFC | Actually, no. He was maybe 10 pounds overweight, if that? | Sep 04 21:42 |
DaemonFC | That's not enough all by itself to contribute to severe problems. | Sep 04 21:42 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe the drinks were his calory source | Sep 04 21:42 |
schestowitz-TR | hence not much fat | Sep 04 21:42 |
schestowitz-TR | that fucks up the body | Sep 04 21:42 |
schestowitz-TR | it's just a crabs-burning machine | Sep 04 21:43 |
schestowitz-TR | with some fats in the beers | Sep 04 21:43 |
schestowitz-TR | yeast and stuff | Sep 04 21:43 |
schestowitz-TR | *carbs | Sep 04 21:43 |
DaemonFC | The autopsy said heart attack caused by high blood pressure. | Sep 04 21:43 |
DaemonFC | That's another thing. I frequently saw him salting salted peanutes. | Sep 04 21:43 |
DaemonFC | *peanuts | Sep 04 21:43 |
schestowitz-TR | yeah, makes snese | Sep 04 21:43 |
DaemonFC | You know, the ones that are already quite salty. | Sep 04 21:43 |
schestowitz-TR | with the drinkng | Sep 04 21:43 |
schestowitz-TR | to even out the saltiness | Sep 04 21:44 |
DaemonFC | Mom said he salted things so much that he left the lid off the salt shaker because he said it wouldn't put out enough salt. | Sep 04 21:44 |
schestowitz-TR | more liquid, more salt | Sep 04 21:44 |
schestowitz-TR | I forgot the term for it, not ph | Sep 04 21:44 |
DaemonFC | I buy the roasted peanuts without any salt on them. | Sep 04 21:44 |
schestowitz-TR | it's about the cells | Sep 04 21:44 |
activelow | conductivity | Sep 04 21:45 |
DaemonFC | When I go for fast food, I tell them put down a fresh batch of fries and don't salt them. | Sep 04 21:45 |
schestowitz-TR | no | Sep 04 21:45 |
schestowitz-TR | not ions and ph | Sep 04 21:45 |
DaemonFC | You can ask McDonalds to also not salt the burgers, but I leave that alone. | Sep 04 21:45 |
activelow | and another parameter is water hardness | Sep 04 21:45 |
DaemonFC | It messes with the flavor too much if they don't salt the hamburger patties, but unsalted fries with ketchup are fine. | Sep 04 21:45 |
schestowitz | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_poisoning https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_water_chlorination | Sep 04 21:45 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Brine - Wikipedia | Sep 04 21:46 | |
DaemonFC | So if you go for fast food and want to easily cut out some salt without ruining the meal, take it all out on the fries. | Sep 04 21:46 |
DaemonFC | It makes very little difference to the flavor for whatever reason, but unsalted meat tastes awful. | Sep 04 21:46 |
schestowitz | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_salt_solution | Sep 04 21:47 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Balanced salt solution - Wikipedia | Sep 04 21:47 | |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, I started using a 50/50 mixture of sodium chloride and potassium chloride at home. | Sep 04 21:47 |
DaemonFC | Whenever a recipe calls for salt, I use that, and it automagically cuts the sodium in half without ruining what you're cooking. | Sep 04 21:47 |
activelow | hardness and conductivity can be raised at neutral ph | Sep 04 21:48 |
schestowitz | "Balanced salt solutions are used for washing tissues and cells and are usually combined with other agents to treat the tissues and cells. They provide the cells with water and inorganic ions, while maintaining a physiological pH and osmotic pressure" | Sep 04 21:48 |
activelow | some salts dissolve at higher ph, some at lower | Sep 04 21:48 |
schestowitz | the body NEEDS salt | Sep 04 21:48 |
activelow | different ones | Sep 04 21:48 |
schestowitz | your mom's partner took too much water | Sep 04 21:48 |
DaemonFC | It does need some, but most people get so much from so many places, that it's way too much. | Sep 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | so he had to overcompensate with salt | Sep 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | alcohol is like that | Sep 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | there's such a thing as overdrinking | Sep 04 21:49 |
DaemonFC | It's almost impossible to live in America and have a salt deficiency. The average is eating 3 times more than you should! | Sep 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | it puts your cells at risk | Sep 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | with permanent damage likely | Sep 04 21:49 |
DaemonFC | Another easy way to cut out sodium is quit drinking soda. | Sep 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: here's the thing | Sep 04 21:50 |
DaemonFC | It doesn't have much, but every can has 50 milligrams. | Sep 04 21:50 |
DaemonFC | And it doesn't help your body at all. | Sep 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | the junk food places make the most money on drinks | Sep 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | they sell you water | Sep 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | in the junk food places they use caron | Sep 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | not plastic | Sep 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | so it's super-cheap | Sep 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | if they serve too much salt, you compensate by drinking | Sep 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | so using too much salt and not BETTER condiment is also a business decision | Sep 04 21:51 |
schestowitz | there's also this thing they do with too much sugar in recommended dietys | Sep 04 21:51 |
schestowitz | I guess the dentists love that too :-) | Sep 04 21:51 |
DaemonFC | My mother said that Dr. Murphy, a psychiatrist I saw for some time, and not one of those hacks that you see everywhere these days because of Obamacare.....told her that he thought I might have an autism spectrum disorder. | Sep 04 21:51 |
schestowitz-TR | and why? | Sep 04 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | people over-diagnose this and attention deficit | Sep 04 21:52 |
DaemonFC | But he didn't put that down in my chart or look into it any further. | Sep 04 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | then push some pills | Sep 04 21:52 |
DaemonFC | Yes, I'm already on medication for bipolar disorder. | Sep 04 21:52 |
DaemonFC | Without it, my mind is a complete wreck. | Sep 04 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | so is bully de blanc | Sep 04 21:52 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe you too should hook up | Sep 04 21:53 |
DaemonFC | Lots of people have bipolar disorder. | Sep 04 21:53 |
schestowitz-TR | she's also unemployed and she's single ;-) | Sep 04 21:53 |
DaemonFC | Like over 40 million in this country alone I think. | Sep 04 21:53 |
schestowitz-TR | I need to read up on what it does to them, as I know too little... | Sep 04 21:53 |
schestowitz-TR | many homeless here are said to have it | Sep 04 21:53 |
schestowitz-TR | not because of the homelessness but vice versa | Sep 04 21:54 |
schestowitz-TR | I guess it makes it harder to integrate them into workplaces | Sep 04 21:54 |
DaemonFC | Yes, it's hard to function when you're screaming at people one minute because they annoyed you and then realize what you did and are asking them to forgive you a few minutes later. | Sep 04 21:54 |
schestowitz-TR | wikipedia says there is I and II | Sep 04 21:54 |
schestowitz-TR | different articles | Sep 04 21:54 |
schestowitz-TR | very unhelful term | Sep 04 21:54 |
schestowitz-TR | "bi"=2 | Sep 04 21:55 |
DaemonFC | Well, they started out by diagnosing me with Bipolar II Disorder. | Sep 04 21:55 |
schestowitz-TR | and then they have Ia | Sep 04 21:55 |
schestowitz-TR | and II | Sep 04 21:55 |
schestowitz-TR | they use numbers? | Sep 04 21:55 |
DaemonFC | Then they changed it to Bipolar I with psychotic features. | Sep 04 21:55 |
schestowitz-TR | is there a Flu IV and Flu XIII? | Sep 04 21:55 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, Bipolar 2 is the less severe version. | Sep 04 21:55 |
schestowitz-TR | COVID IX :-) | Sep 04 21:55 |
schestowitz-TR | COVID IX-Delta-Gamma :-) | Sep 04 21:55 |
DaemonFC | It can usually be treated with less medication and people with it tend to function better in society and groups. | Sep 04 21:55 |
activelow | wasn't this narcism? required for social compliance. | Sep 04 21:56 |
DaemonFC | Even people who get a Bipolar 1 with psychotic features diagnosis can be medicated, but almost never live a normal life. | Sep 04 21:56 |
schestowitz-TR | I've finally reading up more about it.... quiet news day anyway | Sep 04 21:56 |
DaemonFC | The typical patient ends up working well below their abilities or intelligence, even if they have a high intelligence. | Sep 04 21:57 |
DaemonFC | Because they can't function well enough to get ahead. | Sep 04 21:57 |

schestowitz | friends/family | Sep 04 21:58 |
schestowitz | and they might not forgive you | Sep 04 21:58 |
DaemonFC | Oh, Maricel was saying she'd have the state of Illinois take away my license to drive because I had bipolar disorder and they don't let people "like me" drive a car. | Sep 04 21:58 |
schestowitz | even worse for social control media users | Sep 04 21:58 |
schestowitz | they have "multi-modal" state | Sep 04 21:58 |
schestowitz | and then it's all bungled up | Sep 04 21:58 |
DaemonFC | I said, "The fact that you believe yourself to be all powerful says there's something a lot worse going wrong in your head.". | Sep 04 21:58 |
DaemonFC | Something like that. | Sep 04 21:58 |
schestowitz | Maricel is an arrogant fool | Sep 04 21:59 |
schestowitz | so it doesn't matter | Sep 04 21:59 |
schestowitz | she's not qualified to diagnose | Sep 04 21:59 |
schestowitz | just some overhyped nurse with ego issues | Sep 04 21:59 |
schestowitz | anyway, Maricel is OT | Sep 04 21:59 |
schestowitz | I wonder if RMS throwing tantrums says something... | Sep 04 22:00 |
schestowitz | he did it publicly a few times | Sep 04 22:00 |
DaemonFC | Well, I suppose the best way to describe my behavior without medication was that I knew there were rules, but I didn't care. | Sep 04 22:00 |
schestowitz | "Less commonly, bipolar disorder or a bipolar-like disorder may occur as a result of or in association with a neurological condition or injury including stroke, traumatic brain injury, HIV infection, multiple sclerosis, porphyria, and rarely temporal lobe epilepsy.[65]" | Sep 04 22:00 |
schestowitz | tbh: | Sep 04 22:00 |
schestowitz | you would not like this: | Sep 04 22:00 |
DaemonFC | I felt like I would just always get away with whatever I did, so it didn't matter what I did. | Sep 04 22:01 |
schestowitz | these people are best avoided in some positions and roles | Sep 04 22:01 |
schestowitz | like sys admins | Sep 04 22:01 |
schestowitz | they're not predictable... I came across a few | Sep 04 22:01 |
schestowitz | people with emotional roller coasters | Sep 04 22:01 |
schestowitz | they can do other roles | Sep 04 22:01 |
