DaemonFC[m]<MinceR "microsoft makes it easier on its"> Well, they had to provide security patched on IE 6 until last year, because the stupid idiots shipped it on WEPOS in 2009.Feb 06 03:50
DaemonFC[m]*patchesFeb 06 03:50
MinceRthere was a version of Idiot Exploiter that wasn't full of holes?Feb 06 03:51
DaemonFC[m]And sure enough, 18 years later IE 6 still had security holes.Feb 06 03:51
DaemonFC[m]It's really ridiculous what kind of a corner corporate users painted themselves into that they couldn't update a web browserr for 20 years because their shitty NT domain fell apart without it.Feb 06 03:52
DaemonFC[m]If you count later versions of IE and now Chromium Edge IE mode emulating IE 6, it still hasn't gone away.Feb 06 03:56

DaemonFC[m]Illinois law says taking a picture of yourself with a marked ballot is a class 4 felony. The same as pointing a gun at someone, assaulting a police officer, or attacking an elderly person.Feb 06 21:20
danielp3344lolFeb 06 21:21
MinceRallegedly it could be used as proof to someone who has bought the voter's voteFeb 06 21:21
DaemonFC[m]Oh, that would never happen in Chicago. :)Feb 06 21:22
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: Every fifth shooting is another permanent Democrat.Feb 06 21:22
DaemonFC[m]So I don't really know what difference a ballot selfie makes. They don't even make sure it's really you at the polling place.Feb 06 21:23
DaemonFC[m]No ID.Feb 06 21:23
DaemonFC[m]I could have told them I was my ex boyfriend and I was there to vote.Feb 06 21:23
DaemonFC[m]All I need to know is his name and address. I wouldn't, because it's a felony. But there doesn't seem to be any safeguard against this.Feb 06 21:24
DaemonFC[m]That's probably how they stuffed the ballot box for Hillary last time around.Feb 06 21:24
DaemonFC[m]Dead black shooting victims for the Hildabeast!Feb 06 21:25
danielp3344I'm wondering about the ethics of having a dash camFeb 06 21:26
danielp3344I do kind of want one, because it would be nice to have a record of my driving, but I know I would hate to be on the other end of one...Feb 06 21:27
danielp3344laziness will probably win out in this scenario and I just wont buy oneFeb 06 21:28
DaemonFC[m]That's why I don't have one, I guess.Feb 06 21:34
DaemonFC[m]Some asshole hid out in my blind spot while I was merging on the highway this morning an then didn't bother to move over even though there weren't any other cars.Feb 06 21:35
DaemonFC[m]Then just looked at me when I honked.Feb 06 21:35
MinceR06 212353 < DaemonFC[m]> I could have told them I was my ex boyfriend and I was there to vote.Feb 06 21:40
MinceRlolFeb 06 21:40
MinceRwas that a primary?Feb 06 21:40
MinceRi don't have a dashcam only because i wasn't sure if it was legal to use oneFeb 06 21:41
MinceRbut it seems nobody cares if it is legal anywayFeb 06 21:41
<--smnthermes (976c22869c@xmpp.snopyta.org) has left #techrightsFeb 06 21:41
DaemonFC[m]> was that a primary?Feb 06 21:41
DaemonFC[m]Yeah.Feb 06 21:41
danielp3344I got my pinephone!Feb 06 21:41
DaemonFC[m]I voted for Bernie Sanders.Feb 06 21:41
DaemonFC[m]Something new this year too. You get to vote for super delegates who have said how they'll vote if it reaches a contested convention.Feb 06 21:41
danielp3344<DaemonFC[m] "I voted for Bernie Sanders."> I love some of the things he wants, not so much othersFeb 06 21:42
DaemonFC[m]So I voted for Sanders super delegates too. That was weird. Usually the party bigwigs just appoint them and they override the way the election went and do what they want.Feb 06 21:42
danielp3344I just hope he's serious about that facial recognition thingFeb 06 21:42
DaemonFC[m]I might have considered Pete Buttigieg but he's gay.Feb 06 21:42
DaemonFC[m]I'm gay, but I know that there's too much homophobia, from looking at Gallup polls.Feb 06 21:43
DaemonFC[m]Even within the Democratic Party there is.Feb 06 21:43
DaemonFC[m]We can hopefully get Sanders in and revisit the gay president issue in 8 years when more Boomers are gone from the electorate.Feb 06 21:44
DaemonFC[m]I think we need to put the pin back in that grenade at the moment because you know Trump will go after that and then we'll have Trump on stage gay bashing and it'll just be a nightmare.Feb 06 21:45
DaemonFC[m]He knows he only gets votes from rich gay people who only care about their taxes and human right be damned.Feb 06 21:46
DaemonFC[m]So that's like 10% maybe.Feb 06 21:46
DaemonFC[m]Even if he managed to lose all of that, he'd fire up enough crazies into definitely being at the polls on election day it wouldn't matter.Feb 06 21:47
DaemonFC[m]If there's anything conservatives love more than hating people for no reason, it's getting a chance to re-litigate the 1970s or something.Feb 06 21:47
MinceRputting the pin back in never works thoughFeb 06 21:48
MinceRthe fuze is already active by then :>Feb 06 21:49
DaemonFC[m]The hilarious part is that the Lamestream Media is already treating this as if Biden won.Feb 06 21:49
DaemonFC[m]He was in a very distant fourth place in Iowa and doesn't even have any delegates.Feb 06 21:49
MinceR(audio:unimportant) https://vid.pr0gramm.com/2020/01/15/27219e420ff952f4.mp4Feb 06 21:49
DaemonFC[m]Biden is a gaffe machine and a right-wing Democrat who has a terrible voting record on progressive causes.Feb 06 21:50
DaemonFC[m]So the media wants it to be Biden so that the voters abandon him.Feb 06 21:51
DaemonFC[m]Trump is spending millions on anti-Biden attack ads, and if this keeps up that'll all be wasted.Feb 06 21:51
DaemonFC[m]Also getting himself impeached trying to dig dirt on a nobody that he thought he'd run against.Feb 06 21:52
DaemonFC[m]Obama picked Biden as VP because he didn't want a Dick Cheney on his hands.Feb 06 21:52
MinceRmaybe the "democrats" already decided that they'll make biden their candidate no matter what (including primaries)Feb 06 21:53
DaemonFC[m]Biden was picked for his inability to overshadow.Feb 06 21:53
MinceRmaybe even Agent Orange knows thisFeb 06 21:54
DaemonFC[m]Well, the caucus in Iowa shows tepid support for Biden there.Feb 06 21:54
DaemonFC[m]And I assume that will carry over to states in the region.Feb 06 21:54
DaemonFC[m]Iowa doesn't have a ton of delegates, but not getting any from there isn't a good start for Biden.Feb 06 21:54
MinceRhow did it go with hillarious?Feb 06 21:55
DaemonFC[m]Next up is New Hampshire on the 10th.Feb 06 21:55
DaemonFC[m]That's very much like Vermont, so I suspect Sanders will be the clear winner there, like he was in 2016.Feb 06 21:55
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: 2016 Iowa was a statistical tie between Clinton and Sanders, but Hillary got way more delegates because of super delegates.Feb 06 21:56
DaemonFC[m]Supers are not allowed to vote on the first ballot this time.Feb 06 21:57
MinceRinterestingFeb 06 21:57
DaemonFC[m]If it goes to a second ballot, they have to vote for the candidate that got the most votes in their state.Feb 06 21:57
DaemonFC[m]If it goes to ta third ballot, they can vote freely.Feb 06 21:57
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: But if it gets so contested that Supers play a huge part, there's going to be a brokered convention.Feb 06 21:58
DaemonFC[m]And whoever wins is probably going to pick up the second place finisher.Feb 06 21:58
DaemonFC[m]So yeah, it could be a Sanders/Buttigieg ticket in the end or something like that.Feb 06 21:58
DaemonFC[m]They have to get a consensus back or they'll be murdered in the general election.Feb 06 21:59
MinceRthey didn't mind that last timeFeb 06 21:59
DaemonFC[m]Really the VP is kind of an after thought in our system.Feb 06 21:59
DaemonFC[m]So while Buttigieg is gay, it may not matter to voters as much.Feb 06 22:00
DaemonFC[m]And it could give Trump a harder time trying to keep the midwest states that he won last time around.Feb 06 22:00
DaemonFC[m]Pete Buttigieg was mayor of the third largest Indiana city.Feb 06 22:00
DaemonFC[m]And he's been unusually popular in the midwest.Feb 06 22:01
DaemonFC[m]So there could be some surprises here, especially with a ticket like that.Feb 06 22:01
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: From what I'm seeing in Iowa, Biden is not going to do well unless a bunch of people who are getting nearly no votes drop out and their support all coalesces around him. Why would it?Feb 06 22:02
DaemonFC[m]Warren came in third and if she drops out, her supporters will probably go to Sanders.Feb 06 22:02
-viera/#techrights-Tux Machines: Security and Proprietary Software http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/133798 [https://pleroma.site/objects/d60c5fc6-2290-4c3f-99cf-398dbde92bb4]Feb 06 22:02
DaemonFC[m]Why would Pete Buttigieg drop out if he's at or near the front?Feb 06 22:03
DaemonFC[m]So 30 primaries might be over by the time something like that happens.Feb 06 22:03
DaemonFC[m]There's a lot of ways this could play out, but the most likely is that either Buttigieg or Sanders wins the nomination and then they probably pick the other one up as VP to prevent pissed off voters not showing up out of spite.Feb 06 22:04

DaemonFC[m]MinceR: There's also Operation Chaos. Feb 06 22:06
DaemonFC[m]In 2016, Rush Limbaugh encouraged Republicans in open primary state to break the law and vote in the Democratic Primary for Clinton.Feb 06 22:06
DaemonFC[m]This time, there's a movement to vote for Sanders because they think he can't win.Feb 06 22:07
DaemonFC[m]The problem, for them, is that Democrats despise Trump.Feb 06 22:07
DaemonFC[m]And Independent voters tend to dislike him.Feb 06 22:07
DaemonFC[m]The Democrats are the larger of the two parties, by voters, but the way the "unaffiliated" voters go really ends up deciding it one way or the other.Feb 06 22:08
-viera/#techrights-Tux Machines: Red Hat and Fedora Leftovers http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/133800 [https://pleroma.site/objects/ffc1428d-a2e5-44a8-9be1-bb49766dcd3c]Feb 06 22:09
DaemonFC[m]Foreshadowing Trump losing the election this year, those 42 House Republicans that lost their seats in 2018's low turnout midterms that should have favored Republicans, lost their seats because states with high property taxes, which includdes quite a few red and swing states, have voters who were hit hard by Trump's tax law, with a gigantic tax hike.Feb 06 22:09
DaemonFC[m]Even if they don't like Sanders, they do remember what Trump did to them.Feb 06 22:10
DaemonFC[m]Also, even with 42 less Republicans in the House, about the same number as last time have already said they're retiring.Feb 06 22:10
DaemonFC[m]You don't just get up and leave in those numbers unless your internal polling suggests a wipeout and you just want to get out ahead of it.Feb 06 22:11
DaemonFC[m]It's much easier for Democrats to pick off an open seat than an incumbent Republican.Feb 06 22:11
DaemonFC[m]So I wouldn't be surprised if larger turnout and more seats without incumbent Republicans = another 7-10 House seats for the Democrats.Feb 06 22:12
DaemonFC[m]What will be interesting is if they can hold it this year, the Democrats may not lose the House again until at least 2032.Feb 06 22:12

DaemonFC[m]They managed to flip a few states that were gerrymandered badly in favor of Republicans last time.Feb 06 22:13
DaemonFC[m]The Democrats in Virginia, for example, could pick up 3-4 House seats in 2022 just by gerrymandering the districts the other way around.Feb 06 22:13
