[18:12] DaemonFC You have to reflash the Powertrain Control Module. [18:12] MinceR maybe it was easy on older, simpler cars [18:12] DaemonFC Then there's a kit which contains way more than just the supercharger. [18:12] schestowitz[TR] schestowitz[TR], I was actually looking into what would be needed to add a supercharger to the Buick. [18:12] schestowitz[TR] it has drained your buegdt [18:12] MinceR does your buick lack power, though? [18:12] schestowitz[TR] without it, you would be like 25 dollars better off [18:12] schestowitz[TR] no rising price of fuel either [18:12] MinceR the supercharger will likely shorten the lifespan of your engine [18:12] schestowitz[TR] 25k [18:13] DaemonFC You'd end up spending about $1600 but you'd bring the car up to about 260 horsepower. [18:14] DaemonFC It's rated at 205 without the supercharger. [18:14] schestowitz[TR] cars suck [18:14] schestowitz[TR] planes suck more [18:14] DaemonFC The supercharged version went into the Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. [18:14] schestowitz[TR] bicycles have issues with them too [18:14] schestowitz[TR] feet are slow [18:14] schestowitz[TR] but you don't need to use foot locks [18:14] DaemonFC The supercharger is different than the turbos they use now.

[18:15] schestowitz[TR] like today's "phones" [18:15] DaemonFC So you're talking software, engine parts, and an exhaust system mod. [18:15] schestowitz[TR] you pay for a ton of things you neither want nor need [18:16] schestowitz[TR] even some kitchen appliances have become like this, but you can still avoid those [18:16] MinceR my cars weren't so bad [18:16] schestowitz[TR] i read the other day 70,000 dollars for a new car is now "normal" [18:16] MinceR and they get me to places nothing else would, especially the current one [18:16] DaemonFC It increases the density of the air going into the engine, but to accomplish this, you're also going to need to adjust the fuel delivery rate. [18:16] schestowitz[TR] some people work for what? 3-4 years just to [pay for the car [18:16] schestowitz[TR] that they only use to commute to work? [18:16] DaemonFC Which meeans your fuel economy comes down a bit. [18:17] DaemonFC It gets more power out of the same engine by essentially running it harder. [18:18] DaemonFC Yeah, that's why these engines got another series of upgrades. It was to accommodate the strain of running a supercharger, but even the non-supercharged Series III got those upgrades and became a more reliable engine. [18:18] MinceR https://pleated-jeans.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/tumblr-gets-deep-3-30-23-14.jpg [18:18] DaemonFC It made no sense to run two assembly lines when at the end of the day it could be the same engine until it got to the last phase of production and they decided which car they'd use it in.

[18:21] DaemonFC If by that you mean it didn't get the best gas mileage, or performance for its size. [18:21] DaemonFC But none of these KIA engines runs for 300,000-400,000 miles and 25 years without many issues. [18:21] DaemonFC You're lucky to just make it out of the car payment phase before it starts shitting all over you and you sell it for scrap. [18:22] DaemonFC So there's a lot to be said for the 3800 V6. When you look at gas mileage, yeah, these little foreign cars generally do a lot better, but they're not built to last. [18:22] DaemonFC They don't use a lot of metal in them either. [18:23] DaemonFC While the Buick has some rust spots on the inner part of the frame, it's goint to take several more years yet for the car to start showing it. [18:23] DaemonFC Hondas and Toyotas are a rustbucket by this age even though they probably still run. [18:23] MinceR depends on which little foreign car you mean [18:23] DaemonFC Because it takes the rust less time to eat through the metal when it's wafer thin. [18:24] MinceR some of them were built to last longer than any usian car since the oil crisis [18:24] DaemonFC The Japanese cars are okay except for what I just said. [18:24] MinceR at least some toyotas do have good rustproofing [18:24] DaemonFC If you live in a rust state, prepare for them to look real, real, bad after like 10 years. [18:24] DaemonFC Even if you go to the car wash regularly. [18:26] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], With the Impala, I was starting to get structural problems with undercarriage rust. [18:26] DaemonFC I even had to replace the fuel filler neck. [18:27] DaemonFC It rusted through and caused a small gas leak. [18:28] DaemonFC I ended up replacing the metal fuel line between the tank and the engine because it became so rusted that it too was leaking and the fuel filter had also plugged up and could not come off without finishing off the line.

In fact, a Nitter instance was shut down because someone complained of child porn that came from Twitter and had been accessible through the proxy. [18:42] DaemonFC But no action taken against Twitter. [18:44] DaemonFC MinceR, You'd think it would be pretty easy for the Ukrainians to slip behind Russian lines and inflict severe damage. Apparently, the only thing the Russians have as an IFF system is whether "Z" has been spray painted on the tank in white spray paint. [18:44] DaemonFC Just spray paint Z on a bunch of them and put Ukrainian tank crews that speak Russian in them. [18:45] DaemonFC How would the Russians know until it was too late and they were already being shot? [18:45] MinceR what do the geneva conventions say about that? [18:45] MinceR also, they could just use sticky tape and remove it when done [18:46] MinceR masking tape, whatever [18:46] DaemonFC AFAIK, Putin isn't abiding by them anyway, hence war criminal. [18:47] DaemonFC Also, I think it talks about putting on enemy uniforms. [18:47] DaemonFC But maybe there's other ways to trick them. [18:47] DaemonFC Is "Z" a uniform? [18:49] DaemonFC MinceR, What do the Geneva Conventions say about raping and shooting civilians, lobbing missiles at apartment buildings, and attacking power stations so people will freeze? [18:50] DaemonFC Also, kidnapping children to be sent to re-education camps/ [18:50] DaemonFC If you want to get down to what is "legal" in war, then Putin has shown an utter disregard for the law.

[18:51] MinceR also, i think it's time to isolate the national communist axis of evil from us [18:51] MinceR they've been abusing the openness of our societies and poisoning the minds of people enough already [18:52] MinceR red china sells slave labor, gets lots of money and technology in return [18:52] DaemonFC Like schestowitz[TR] said, the EU was worried about growth, so it got Hungary. [18:52] DaemonFC Which is not even a democracy anymore, and sabotages the EU and NATO. [18:52] MinceR red china and moscovia both spam our commmunication networks and manipulate our elections [18:52] DaemonFC And now better countries don't even want to join the EU. [18:52] MinceR while they themselves run societies in which there's hardly any exchange of information [18:53] DaemonFC Yeah, the Biden Administration has no love for Putin. [18:53] MinceR i think it's time the west stopped trading with those who help moscovia circumvent the sanctions [18:53] MinceR and cut off moscovia and red china from the Internet [18:53] DaemonFC The danger of drawing the war out instead of just giving the Ukrainians what they need to pry the Russians out of their country quickly is.... [18:53] DaemonFC Trump may win the election, cut them off, and then Putin wins. [18:53] MinceR yeah [18:53] DaemonFC Which is probably what Putin is hoping for, and why he stays. [18:54] MinceR plus lots of innocent people get tortured and killed [18:54] MinceR and lots of innocent children get abducted and brainwashed [18:54] DaemonFC Trump surfaced and made the midterm elections all about him. [18:54] DaemonFC And it did enormous damage to the Republican Party. [18:55] DaemonFC They would have won the Senate without him. They would have kept Michigan without him, and the Wisconsin Supreme Court. [18:55] DaemonFC He's not an asset. [18:55] MinceR part of the "republican" party insists on worshipping him though [18:56] DaemonFC Poking his head out and making "endorsements" fires up the left and reminds the voters of all of the freedom they've lost. [18:56] MinceR the party will probably end up split by him [18:56] DaemonFC And at least in Michigan and Wisconsin, things are shifting and going away from the Republican Party. [18:56] DaemonFC There's definitely a realignment going on here. [18:56] DaemonFC All of these Republicans that give up and move to Florida, well maybe they live in Florida now, but the people who stay behind take over the Midwest. [18:57] DaemonFC The Republicans figured that after Roe went away, abortion momentum would be towards more and more bans. [18:58] DaemonFC But half the bans are unenforceable right now due to court orders, and voters have either struck down or elected politicians that repealed them in several states. [18:58] DaemonFC So the momentum is not going towards banning abortion. [18:58] DaemonFC I think if anything, when the dust settles, it'll be banned in like 12-16 states maybe. [18:59] DaemonFC The fact that the Indiana Supreme Court wouldn't stay the injunction while it considered the case tells me something. [18:59] IPFS IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0 [18:59] DaemonFC Usually if they're just going to rule against the people bringing the suit, they stay the injunction so the state can just keep continuing to enforce the law. [18:59] DaemonFC Because they know full well what they're going to decide. ● Apr 06 [19:00] DaemonFC If they'll uphold it, why stay the law for months and let more women get abortions in the mean time? [19:00] DaemonFC That having been said, their terms eventually expire and there are retention elections. [19:01] DaemonFC But people like my mother are so badly informed they just vote yes to keep judges they don't know anything about. [19:01] DaemonFC I always vote to get rid of the judges. [19:02] DaemonFC Rarely does one get removed from office, but my statement is "I have no confidence in the court system or any of its officials, so no." [19:03] DaemonFC Since 2010, only two Illinois judges have lost retention, and both in Cook County. [19:03] DaemonFC One of them was for allowing the police to extract confessions via torture. [19:04] DaemonFC I had no idea when I voted No that he had that going on. [19:04] DaemonFC So I voted to remove him without knowing anything about him. [19:04] DaemonFC I figure the safer assumption anyway is to remove them. [19:04] DaemonFC They've all done something wrong even if it's not criminal. [19:05] DaemonFC Because they're all part of the state anyway, and they're all there to hurt the public. [19:05] DaemonFC Most of the public, anyway. [19:05] DaemonFC What do they do all day? Send people to prison and sign eviction orders. [19:05] DaemonFC They don't even stop to look at the cases.

[19:42] DaemonFC While those laws were designed to give prosecutors something else to throw at people who have sex with kids, the Idaho "abortion trafficking law" restricts travel too. [19:42] DaemonFC Just for a different purpose. [19:43] DaemonFC Then again, it could also be unconstitutional under Saenz v. Roe, a California case where California made traveling to bring an indigent person into the state a felony, and lost. [19:43] DaemonFC The Supreme Court (in 1999) said that Americans have a right to travel between the states and it doesn't matter what their financial status is. [19:44] DaemonFC Odd as it may seem, California and now Idaho may be setting us up for pedophiles convicted of "traveling" to get their conviction for that particular count reversed at an appeals court. [19:45] DaemonFC Not that it will help much because that's usually not the worst thing on the indictment. [19:45] DaemonFC If Americans have a general right to travel, then where does it stop? It's a legitimate question to ask a court. [19:47] DaemonFC Traveling charges usually involve three things the state has to prove. 1. Intent 2. That you used a particular means of travel to go some distance and what that was. 3. That the travel in question involved the state somehow (began, ended, or went through the state in question). [19:48] DaemonFC As ridiculous as it sounds, it's not a straightforward accusation to make, because the prosecution has to prove guilty mind was the reason the travel took place in the first place, and how that travel occurred and involved the jurisdiction where the charges were brought. [19:48] DaemonFC Also, if the minor travels to meet the adult, then it's not Traveling. [19:48] DaemonFC Because there is no "Traveling to meet an adult.". [19:49] DaemonFC So we've now had states try to restrict travel due to poverty, pedophiles, and abortions. [19:49] DaemonFC And in the case of poverty, it was struck down by the Supreme Court.

[22:23] DaemonFC Generally, in the US, "check" is a financial instrument. A promissory note with consequences. In British English it would be "cheque" but you never see it written that way here. [22:24] XRevan86 DaemonFC: I was implying that bank cheques are not a thing in general in Russia and probably in most other places that aren't the US. [22:25] DaemonFC I don't think I mentioned banking in Russia. [22:25] DaemonFC I don't know how they bank there. [22:26] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Read your statement more closely, ye are talking about fishy dating applications. They ban the gay ones of course. [22:26] DaemonFC Generally in the US, if you want to move money around, there's cash, checks, EFT (electronic funds transfer) which is really archaic and relies on giving your account number to the other institution, mobile apps like PayPal and Venmo, credit/debit, and "Zelle", which is a system used for payments from one bank to another that they standardized several years ago to work around shortcomings and privacy issues in EFT. [22:27] DaemonFC But I've faked my GPS coordinates before and planted myself in Russia that way. [22:27] DaemonFC And there were people on Grindr there. [22:27] DaemonFC So they're finding some way around that, obviously. [22:28] DaemonFC If I had to guess, it would be sideload the APK, use a VPN to get around the ISP bans from the government, and then the app opens up and works normally. [22:28] DaemonFC Usually "bans" just target the most straightforward way to make something work. [22:29] DaemonFC Which is cool, in its own way, because it would weed out a lot of the idiots. [22:29] DaemonFC The police in Illinois have a heavy presence on Grindr. [22:29] DaemonFC They can't arrest you just for using it, so they pretend to be like 16 or something and try to seduce you. [22:30] DaemonFC And then use whatever you say to someone that doesn't exist in court. [22:30] DaemonFC Up to 2012, the age of consent in Illinois WAS 16. [22:30] DaemonFC They raised it to 17. [22:30] DaemonFC And now they're trying to raise it again to 18. [22:31] DaemonFC Stallman was actually right when he said they're trying to take the law and bend it all out of shape to change what it means to be an adult or "close enough" that you can make informed decisions that society has always granted people before. [22:32] DaemonFC If I had to guess why that is, it's because the population is getting old, and the older people are allowed to get, the more people (who are legally adults) are "children". [22:32] DaemonFC Once a person is in their 80s, they start calling people in their 30s "children". [22:32] DaemonFC So it stands to reason that in an aging country, things are going this direction. [22:33] DaemonFC In other ways, they've jacked up the age to smoke, the age to drink (a long time ago). [22:33] DaemonFC But never the age to be thrown into the middle of a war. [22:34] DaemonFC It's always fine to throw "children" into a war. What does this imply if you think people 18-26 are "kids" but you throw them into the middle of a war? That you're creating child soldiers? [22:34] DaemonFC Doesn't this make a person worse than a pervert? [22:35] DaemonFC We usually use the term "child soldiers" as a way of implying that the country is broken and in shambles and on the verge of a civil war. [22:35] DaemonFC If not in one already. [22:36] DaemonFC A civil war in the US today would be well underway before anyone even realized what had happened. [22:37] DaemonFC In the 1860s, there were no nuclear weapons. No real thing as an armored vehicle. [22:37] DaemonFC Today, there's actually no safeguard that even requires the President to launch a nuclear missile. [22:38] DaemonFC If the people in that silo agree to launch it, there's not really a lot you can do to stop them. The verification program is not actually enforced other than authenticating to the people in the silo that the launch order comes from the President.

Smith, 35, of Waukegan, was charged with battery causing bodily harm and battery making physical contact. [22:59] DaemonFC The incident occurred on December 12 at Tonys Fresh Market, 1700 North Lewis Avenue in Waukegan. [22:59] DaemonFC Smith had walked into the store while holding the hand of a child, according to Lake County Assistant States Attorney Francis DeRosa. [22:59] DaemonFC Smith used his left hand to pick up a basket and the victim accidentally bumped into Smiths basket, DeRosa said. [22:59] DaemonFC DeRosa said Smith punched the victim, causing him to collapse to the ground. [22:59] DaemonFC Smith repeatedly punched the victim, who remained on the ground, DeRosa said." [22:59] DaemonFC "A public defender representing Smith during a bond hearing acknowledged the man has a lengthy criminal history. [22:59] DaemonFC The public defender said Smith took anger management classes to better himself after his last criminal case.
