DaemonFC | Send Chicago PD in to set their stuff on fire. | Nov 06 00:00 |
activelow | it was more respectful if the woman could get the food inside the supermarket, not from the trash | Nov 06 00:00 |
DaemonFC | When he realized it, he put it on a cart for her. | Nov 06 00:01 |
activelow | if dumpster diving makes anyone feel respectful, i don't know | Nov 06 00:01 |
DaemonFC | And just turned around and let her put it all in her car and drive off. | Nov 06 00:01 |
activelow | that's now how society is supposed to work, to earn a living, with dignity | Nov 06 00:01 |
DaemonFC | She said they'd eat that meat and canned vegetables that the store threw out because of the sell by date. | Nov 06 00:02 |
DaemonFC | They're good for another year or two assuming the can is fine. | Nov 06 00:02 |
activelow | shall this be an example for anyone, to dumpster dive for food, and feel somehow respectful about it? | Nov 06 00:03 |
DaemonFC | The longer you live in a place ran by Democrats, the more you see people at their worst. | Nov 06 00:03 |
DaemonFC | Illinois is a fucking shithole. | Nov 06 00:03 |
DaemonFC | If you show weakness here, it just means someone will mug you. | Nov 06 00:03 |
activelow | have no plans to visit chicago. rather want back my home i once had. east-germany, live among my people, study and work, and do my job. | Nov 06 00:04 |
DaemonFC | I was talking to my attorney about the two guys in the car that hit me. | Nov 06 00:04 |
activelow | a place where i can work and live in PEACE. | Nov 06 00:04 |
activelow | and this is what ended, after 1990, not before. | Nov 06 00:04 |
DaemonFC | He said, "Oh those people are animals. They're not operating at your level. Trust me.". | Nov 06 00:04 |
DaemonFC | Yes, "shock therapy". | Nov 06 00:05 |
DaemonFC | Something similar happened after the Civil War here. | Nov 06 00:05 |
DaemonFC | The economy of the south never recovered. | Nov 06 00:05 |
activelow | i mean, east germany was horrible. can't say i am happy now, after enjoying the "freedom" promised after 1990. | Nov 06 00:06 |
DaemonFC | Slavery would have ended one way or another, eventually. | Nov 06 00:06 |
activelow | if at least this was a "social market economy", but it is neither a market economy, nor social. | Nov 06 00:07 |
DaemonFC | Agitators in the north were trying to dictate harsh terms because there was a divide between an economy in the south that, for the time, required lots of manual labor, and heavy industry in the north. | Nov 06 00:07 |
DaemonFC | And the heavy industry people in the north, the people who owned it, took advantage of people's disgust of slavery in order to precipitate a war, that didn't have to happen. | Nov 06 00:07 |
DaemonFC | So that they could crush the south and not have to worry about competing with industry that would establish itself down there. | Nov 06 00:08 |
DaemonFC | And they were so successful that for well over 100 years, the southern states were ruined. | Nov 06 00:08 |
DaemonFC | Now, because of labor unions and such, a lot of heavy industry is going to the south. | Nov 06 00:08 |
DaemonFC | It's turning the northern states bankrupt and without enough jobs. | Nov 06 00:09 |
DaemonFC | The only people who don't mind are the people taking up space and committing crimes. | Nov 06 00:09 |
DaemonFC | They never pay taxes. | Nov 06 00:09 |
DaemonFC | One prison is as good as another. | Nov 06 00:09 |

DaemonFC | They still would have known you got it from somewhere.' | Nov 06 00:14 |
activelow | yes, i reported all income always, but i did save cash, which was taxed again because i did. | Nov 06 00:14 |
activelow | if i had wasted all this money, to go on holidays, gamble and buy a car for example, then this wouldn't have been accounted for when looking for yet another job. | Nov 06 00:15 |
activelow | reminds me, when IBM "generously" offered job placement, i would have had to relocate again, more than ten times in 10 years, but then to munich. | Nov 06 00:15 |
DaemonFC | I heard that the cars were so bad that people just abandoned them in the streets. | Nov 06 00:16 |
DaemonFC | That can't possibly be true. People will use a car until it doesn't work anymore. | Nov 06 00:16 |
activelow | couldn't afford it anymore anyway, couldn't afford to heat my flat anymore at least, leave alone gasoline. | Nov 06 00:16 |
activelow | "social ecological" they say... which is effectively ruining competitive and productive business, in germany. | Nov 06 00:17 |
activelow | it isn't "democrats" here, they call themselves "social democrats" or "christian" or "ecological" "green" etc... they're all the same type of USA/washington minions. | Nov 06 00:18 |
activelow | they're all "atlantic bridge" affiliates, following the agenda dictated by USA. | Nov 06 00:18 |
activelow | "freedom" they said, and "social market economy" ... what an irony, it's less freedom than former east-germany, more surveillance, more propaganda | Nov 06 00:19 |
DaemonFC | That must be tough. | Nov 06 00:19 |
DaemonFC | I mean, to pull off. | Nov 06 00:19 |
DaemonFC | The US is getting like this. | Nov 06 00:20 |
DaemonFC | You have freedom of speech, of course, of course. | Nov 06 00:20 |
activelow | i mean, i grew up in east-germany, and remember what it was like. it is remarkable often, who thinks may lecture me about it. who never had enjoyed this. | Nov 06 00:20 |
DaemonFC | But if you use it, you'll be ruined and de-platformed. | Nov 06 00:20 |
DaemonFC | If the corporate trolls don't like it. | Nov 06 00:20 |
activelow | well, i do not want to participate in this "meta" corporate surveillance capitalism anyway. | Nov 06 00:21 |
DaemonFC | Well, in many ways it was being propped up by the Soviet Union. | Nov 06 00:21 |
DaemonFC | As evidenced by the fact that it couldn't go on without them. | Nov 06 00:21 |
activelow | i man, Stasi would be jealous about the surveillance state established nowadays. | Nov 06 00:22 |
DaemonFC | For any amount of time. | Nov 06 00:22 |
DaemonFC | Richard Stallman mentioned this. | Nov 06 00:22 |
DaemonFC | If someone had told Stalin that they had invented the iPhone. | Nov 06 00:22 |
DaemonFC | He would have said, "That's great! How many can we build? And people will carry them without arguing about it?". | Nov 06 00:22 |
activelow | east-germany wasn't stalinist. and germany remained intact as a nation somehow, it was finally ruined *after* 1990 | Nov 06 00:23 |

XRevan86 | He'd look like that? | Nov 06 00:23 |
activelow | well, germany isn't neither russia nor usa, even at it's peak as "german empire" germany hasn't been any great power in comparison to soviet union or usa | Nov 06 00:25 |
activelow | probably the worst aspect of east germany was the ecological impact of heavy industry, it was nightmare, it was killing children | Nov 06 00:28 |
activelow | this is where the "democratic front" was rooted, the opposition in former east germany, and after 1990 this ecological movement was absorbed itno the western political apparatus | Nov 06 00:29 |
activelow | i think, most members of this "green" party aren't aware themselves, they're now following an agenda dictated by the oil industry, with their "climate change" "communication strategy" | Nov 06 00:29 |
activelow | same label "alliance90/greens", but completely different content; same with the socialist left of former east germany, which re-aligned themselves into a "live-style communist" hippi community, completely different to what the socialist left had been | Nov 06 00:30 |
activelow | nonetheless, they're selling something completely different nowadays, as "socialist left" than what it was in 1990 | Nov 06 00:31 |
activelow | and the idiot i had been, i somehow believed it was a "social market economy" and "freedom" which would welcome east-germans into a "united europe" | Nov 06 00:33 |
activelow | nowadays this "ecological" movement is mostly concerned with "gender issues" and similar, falsifying history, to re-frame the entire argument into their insane ideological framework | Nov 06 00:35 |
activelow | it has become impossible to participate in this political debate at all, it's now all inside "meta" where the most provocative agitators are listened to, instead of those who knew what "socialism" was, or how mothers lived in east germany, for example | Nov 06 00:36 |
activelow | beginning at the age of 3 years, children often were brought into the kindergarden, and mothers worked in shifts, during "cold war" era | Nov 06 00:37 |
activelow | of cause, nowadays, socialist kindergards are the best corporate idea ever invented | Nov 06 00:37 |
activelow | kindergardens | Nov 06 00:37 |
activelow | i mean, if they want to enjoy this, i don't care anymore to say anything | Nov 06 00:38 |
activelow | another promise after 1990 was a "constitutional state", which supposedly protected civil rights, instead of arbitraryness of corrupt courts | Nov 06 00:41 |
activelow | i had been whining enought about this recently, how "western" jurisdicial system operates, in compliance with EU | Nov 06 00:42 |
activelow | it's ridiculous, to even consider this type of legal system anymore as anything in compliance with a consitution | Nov 06 00:42 |
activelow | east-german constitution had a benefit over the current german/western(USA/EU) one: right-to-work | Nov 06 00:49 |
activelow | even weimar constitution of 1920s was better in this regard, which phrased this into the constitution, the right-to-work | Nov 06 00:49 |
activelow | and such rights are derived from education and skills, "jeder nach seinen faehigkeiten" (Lenin), "everyone participates according to his/her skills" (haven't got a better translation) | Nov 06 00:51 |
activelow | anyway, this western/EU society is in such severe moral decline, any relevant social norm is void anyway | Nov 06 00:53 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, ^ | Nov 06 01:02 |
DaemonFC | "No city police agency in Illinois, other than Chicago's, shares responsibility for as many known wrongful convictions as the Waukegan police, who helped send six men to prison — some for decades — before they were cleared, according to an analysis of data from the National Registry of Exonerations. Waukegan police also have been inundated with abuse allegations, records show, and insurers and the city have paid out $26.1 million in pol | Nov 06 01:02 |
DaemonFC | ice cases since 2006, outspending towns with more police and, in some cases, more violent crime." | Nov 06 01:02 |
DaemonFC | "Records show minorities have suffered most in the former industrial hub of 90,000".... | Nov 06 01:03 |
DaemonFC | Article is only from 6 years ago, and the population is down to below 70,000 according to the Census Bureau. | Nov 06 01:03 |
DaemonFC | I think they were quoting 2010 Census records though. | Nov 06 01:05 |
DaemonFC | Waukegan is losing a net of 368 residents per year. | Nov 06 01:05 |
DaemonFC | But even at that, it was just an estimate from before the latest census. | Nov 06 01:06 |
DaemonFC | Which itself may be botched. | Nov 06 01:06 |
DaemonFC | All anyone does know is that the city is in big trouble and is losing many people. | Nov 06 01:07 |
DaemonFC | "Mayor Wayne Motley" | Nov 06 01:07 |
DaemonFC | Long since gone. | Nov 06 01:07 |
DaemonFC | Waukegan hasn't had a two term mayor in office since 2000. | Nov 06 01:07 |
DaemonFC | It's allowed, but every one of them ends up being so dirty that someone else comes along who is just as dirty, and then they all end up losing their re-election, but nothing improves. | Nov 06 01:08 |
DaemonFC | Even if a mayor wanted to get the police department under control, good luck. | Nov 06 01:08 |
DaemonFC | Police unions.... | Nov 06 01:08 |
DaemonFC | Even in Chicago, look at how much trouble they're able to cause over vaccine refusal, even as they cite other people with fines for ignoring similar mandates. | Nov 06 01:09 |
activelow | at least, nowadays, the full history is written, about the glorious socialist revolution | Nov 06 01:14 |
activelow | in former east-germany this wouldn't have been lectured as official history, militia was sent into villages to confiscate hoarded grain and food, to supply cities of millions | Nov 06 01:14 |
activelow | this is what i fear where germany is heading, once they shut down nuclear and coal power | Nov 06 01:15 |
activelow | and if anything, social spendings is the only remaining appeasement utility remaining, with the morals established after 1990 | Nov 06 01:16 |
activelow | 100 years ago, in germany politicians could agitate for "unitiy of the german people", to work and fight for a better future | Nov 06 01:16 |
activelow | nowadays, the people are gone, there won't be any unity anymore; instead they are calling for "social ecological justice", which won't produce energy german nuclear plants once did | Nov 06 01:17 |
activelow | if anything, this was a remarkable achievement, in east germany, to modernize farming and industry, and people did not die from starvation anymore as they did before, people could heat their flats during winter | Nov 06 01:18 |

activelow | too i had to turn of the fridge, because i fear electricity prices will explode next | Nov 06 01:21 |
activelow | problem is, most of the energy costs are fees independent from consumption, so there isn't any possibility remaining for savings | Nov 06 01:21 |
activelow | meaning, i pay for electricity fees and heating supply regardless of how much i am consuming, and the taxation on top of this shall be increased further | Nov 06 01:22 |
activelow | which means they increase taxes for what i am not consuming at all, with the argument this would motivate savings of energy to "safe the planet" | Nov 06 01:23 |

DaemonFC | It's because it's cheaper to just wear my slippers and bathrobe and toss another blanket on the bed than it is to triple my Communist Edison bill. | Nov 06 01:29 |
DaemonFC | Oh yeah, it'll probably hit like $100-ish in February. | Nov 06 01:29 |
DaemonFC | This month, looking closer to about $20. | Nov 06 01:29 |
activelow | for heating or electricity? | Nov 06 01:30 |
DaemonFC | Total. | Nov 06 01:30 |
DaemonFC | Electricity is crazy cheap here. | Nov 06 01:30 |
DaemonFC | I'll be laughing my ass off at those idiots that rushed to switch over to gas because gas was so cheap. | Nov 06 01:30 |
DaemonFC | Nice and toasty in my nuclear power-heated home. | Nov 06 01:31 |
activelow | $80 heating (70Euros), electricity is $50 (30cents/kWh), although electricity costs will decrease because i replaced the phenom2 tower with ARM sbc | Nov 06 01:31 |
DaemonFC | Everything in here is electric. | Nov 06 01:31 |
activelow | problem is, most of the costs are base fees, independent from consumption | Nov 06 01:31 |
DaemonFC | Unless you're running the entire building on a boiler, it makes no sense to use gas and forced air systems in Illinois. | Nov 06 01:32 |
DaemonFC | Our electricity is so cheap that you jsut put in baseboard units. | Nov 06 01:32 |
activelow | energy costs are roughly 3x in germany in comparison to usa | Nov 06 01:32 |
DaemonFC | What does gasoline run? | Nov 06 01:32 |
activelow | per liter? 1.50Euros for diesel | Nov 06 01:33 |
DaemonFC | Like, what's the price you have seen for it recently. | Nov 06 01:33 |
DaemonFC | Is diesel just more common there or something? | Nov 06 01:33 |
DaemonFC | It's very unusual to see a CAR run on diesel here. | Nov 06 01:33 |
activelow | no diesel was what was reported, gasoline is most often ~20cents higher | Nov 06 01:33 |
DaemonFC | The smallest thing you'd run on diesel usually in the US is a pickup truck with a V8 engine. | Nov 06 01:33 |
activelow | usa calculate with gallons, forgot how much liters this was | Nov 06 01:34 |
activelow | anyway, heating costs here is mostly fees, on average it is ~$20monthly without the basic fee calculated per square meter | Nov 06 01:34 |
DaemonFC | $7.42 a gallon for gasoline? | Nov 06 01:35 |
DaemonFC | There would be riots here. | Nov 06 01:35 |
activelow | yes | Nov 06 01:35 |
activelow | what's the current price now in USA? | Nov 06 01:35 |
DaemonFC | People are madder than hell about it being $3.40 a gallon right now. | Nov 06 01:35 |

activelow | i didn't drive a car in almost 10 years btw. | Nov 06 01:35 |
DaemonFC | It's about 12 cents here after taxes and fees, I think. | Nov 06 01:35 |
activelow | problem is, i cannot cut down with costs anymore, most of it is basic fees calculated per square meter | Nov 06 01:36 |
DaemonFC | People are getting more efficient, but it's not really helping them financially, because every time they do, the price gougers just raise the price of energy. | Nov 06 01:36 |
activelow | dollar cents, euro cents are roughly 10, and electricity prices are 30cents with all taxes included, 3x as much in comparison to usa | Nov 06 01:36 |
DaemonFC | So gasoline is more than double and electricity is triple. | Nov 06 01:37 |
DaemonFC | How do you even get by? | Nov 06 01:37 |
activelow | exactly, in germany they are planning now to tax energy which isn't consumed anymore at all | Nov 06 01:37 |
activelow | basic fees and heating calcualted per square meter independent from consumption | Nov 06 01:37 |
activelow | DaemonFC: no car, no holidays, no family.. nothing | Nov 06 01:37 |
DaemonFC | Yes, Illinois passed a permanent and escalating gasoline tax increase. | Nov 06 01:38 |
activelow | some ARM SBCs to hack is what i got, eating cheapest separator meat, and a tea | Nov 06 01:38 |
DaemonFC | Every year it gets worse automatically. | Nov 06 01:38 |
DaemonFC | Even if wages don't go up and there are no new jobs. | Nov 06 01:38 |
DaemonFC | Lovely, huh? | Nov 06 01:38 |
DaemonFC | <activelow> DaemonFC: no car, no holidays, no family.. nothing | Nov 06 01:39 |
activelow | but even the waste separator meat isn't "social ecological", because of the poor animals, yes lovely this is. | Nov 06 01:39 |
DaemonFC | It's getting like that here. | Nov 06 01:39 |
DaemonFC | Maybe not THAT bad yet. | Nov 06 01:39 |
DaemonFC | Give them a few more years. | Nov 06 01:39 |
activelow | btw. german minimum wage is lower than that of USA too. | Nov 06 01:39 |
DaemonFC | Lower? | Nov 06 01:39 |
activelow | roughly 9Euros/hour, and higher insurance fees and taxes | Nov 06 01:39 |
activelow | with triple the costs for energy, yes. | Nov 06 01:39 |
DaemonFC | $15 an hour in Illinois, by 2023. | Nov 06 01:39 |
DaemonFC | Effectively, most already pay at least that now. | Nov 06 01:40 |
DaemonFC | Half that in Indiana. | Nov 06 01:40 |
activelow | i do understand it, why trump withdrew from "paris agreement" | Nov 06 01:40 |
DaemonFC | The way it works is if you raise minimum wage, all the landlords and other parasites come out and realize you have money so they arrange for you to have no money again. | Nov 06 01:40 |
DaemonFC | <activelow> i do understand it, why trump withdrew from "paris agreement" | Nov 06 01:40 |
DaemonFC | Biden put the US back in. | Nov 06 01:40 |
activelow | he didn't | Nov 06 01:40 |
DaemonFC | And, to be honest, we never totally left. | Nov 06 01:40 |
DaemonFC | States and cities committed to it, with over 2/3rds of our national population. | Nov 06 01:41 |
activelow | if energy prices are 1/3 of that in Germany, then Biden did not follow "paris agreement" | Nov 06 01:41 |
DaemonFC | Or your government is hungrier for revenue and more brazen about getting it than mine is. | Nov 06 01:41 |
activelow | strangely, most prominent politicians are, as said, affiliates of "atlantik bridge" and they are following a communication stragy of US think tanks | Nov 06 01:41 |
activelow | in germany | Nov 06 01:42 |
DaemonFC | The US is still shuttering a lot of coal plants. | Nov 06 01:43 |
DaemonFC | The average price of energy is actually going down though. | Nov 06 01:43 |
DaemonFC | Even with this spike in natural gas prices, the long term trend is away from coal, and eventually from gas as well. We're building new nuclear power plants for the first time in decades. | Nov 06 01:44 |
activelow | in germany there is only one way, up. but it isn't energy prices, it is reseller margin surplus and taxation which explode. | Nov 06 01:44 |
DaemonFC | People were really afraid of them for a while thanks largely to shitty Soviet engineering and extreme cost cutting going into the one at Chernobyl. | Nov 06 01:44 |
DaemonFC | The disaster still would have been impossible without a generous amount of operator incompetence though. | Nov 06 01:45 |
activelow | sure, this is what i think, my opinion, those "green" lunatics couldn't construct or maintain nuclear power plants even if they wanted to. | Nov 06 01:45 |
activelow | i think, germany is socially and politically bancrupt, not economically bancrupt, not yet. | Nov 06 01:45 |
DaemonFC | Chernobyl was a perfect storm of bad design, defective and shoddy equipment, and user error. | Nov 06 01:45 |
DaemonFC | The idea we should avoid nuclear power is extreme. | Nov 06 01:46 |

DaemonFC | We need to use it efficiently and avoid cutting corners on safety. | Nov 06 01:46 |
DaemonFC | The environmentalists have actually set that back more than anything else. | Nov 06 01:46 |
DaemonFC | The whole Chernobyl disaster was just insane. | Nov 06 01:47 |
DaemonFC | Third shift was qualified to keep the system going under ideal operating conditions. | Nov 06 01:47 |
activelow | yes, and i am afraid, i wouldn't want to see nuclear plants operated by the current population in germany. | Nov 06 01:48 |
DaemonFC | They admitted at the time they were doing the "safety test" that led to the disaster that they didn't get any training on the procedure, and the shift supervisor screamed at them and made them do it anyway. | Nov 06 01:48 |
activelow | it is socially and politically unstable. this alone is reason enough. but those "greens" are not willing to admit it, because it was them who enforced a social agenda which caused the social degeneration and decline. | Nov 06 01:48 |
activelow | typical argument was german nuclear plant designs were safe. maybe, but i think the social and political unstable conditions do not allow for any long-term planning at all. | Nov 06 01:50 |
DaemonFC | The politicians aren't qualified to do anything. | Nov 06 01:50 |
DaemonFC | That's why they're politicians. | Nov 06 01:50 |
activelow | 2022 the last remaining nuclear plants are scheduled for total nuclear shut down in germany. | Nov 06 01:51 |
activelow | and it isn't only the plants aging, it is the engineers and scientists too, with a next generation ahead i wouldn't put any faith into, even if there were any competent remaining, the social and political conditions in germany are inappropriate. | Nov 06 01:52 |
activelow | if iran was denied nuclear power by some criteria, then those applied to germany too. | Nov 06 01:52 |
activelow | apropos, it was siemens who coordinated with iranian nuclear plans, and most german nuclear plants are siemens ones. | Nov 06 01:53 |

activelow | and even if the police was corrupt and involved, doesn't mean those exonerated were not guilty, although the principle of guilt must be proven remains. | Nov 06 02:27 |
activelow | toxic drugs are circulating in chicago, unregulated by nature, noone knows where it came from, didn't belong to anybody involved with a bust. instead police had planted it? | Nov 06 02:30 |

activelow | situation is this, police *must* take action upon criminal activity, always, they must bust dealers, if they didn't they would be accused of crime themselves. | Nov 06 02:33 |
activelow | so, police goes in, and busts, which puts them into a situation of being targetted by cartells, regardless of what they do or don't do. | Nov 06 02:34 |
activelow | and a busted dealer will face charges, of potentially long prison time. so the dealer must lie, due to the nature of things with such cases, so both a dealer and law enforcement got an incentive to arrange with each other, even if the didn't want to. | Nov 06 02:35 |
activelow | and, then, within the middle of the drug capital city police supposedly planted drugs they had gotten out of nowhere? i don't believe this story for a moment. | Nov 06 02:36 |

DaemonFC | UP wants out of the contract, but the courts aren't letting them out of it quickly enough, so they've resorted to things like putting all of the train stations up for sale from Kenosha to Chicago to force the local governments to buy them all or allow them to be shut down and then they lose their only service on the line. | Nov 06 04:14 |

activelow | lost my excitement about aerospace to be honest... since when i worked for a DLR (german aerospace, nasa/esa/roscosmos cooperative) | Nov 06 04:39 |
activelow | too much to fix down on the ground, technical stuff; not that impressed if nothing but chaos and waste is left behind down here | Nov 06 04:40 |
activelow | i mean, the engineering schedule of German Telekom was insane chaos, imo | Nov 06 04:41 |
activelow | an IBM laptop floating in space isn't any marketing either which would attract, since when i knew how this industry operates | Nov 06 04:42 |
DaemonFC | The ISS is getting pretty old. | Nov 06 04:43 |
DaemonFC | Older space stations start breaking down and having bizarre malfunctions and atmosphere leakage. | Nov 06 04:44 |
DaemonFC | Mir near the end was a gigantic death trap. | Nov 06 04:44 |
DaemonFC | When Mark Shuttleworth went there, it was on its last leg and the Russians had it flying for about 10 years longer than it should have been already. | Nov 06 04:45 |
DaemonFC | They didn't even manage to deorbit it properly. | Nov 06 04:45 |
activelow | in general, aerospace is slow-pace, NASA graved i8086 parts for their space shuttle; i suspect the reasons why this successfull carrier was terminated isn't fully clarified upon yet. | Nov 06 04:46 |
activelow | space-x went into space, we'll see how long they will keep up. | Nov 06 04:47 |
activelow | simply do not know, x.25 is old too... maybe phased out completely nowadays, after almost 50years of reliable operation. in any case spare parts aren't available anymore i read. | Nov 06 04:48 |
activelow | not saying anything is better or worse; in any case the internet doesn't exist for that long yet either, and it is getting old too, with some weird symptoms showing up all over the place. | Nov 06 04:49 |
activelow | the entire GPS stuff, hell, i was surprised to see those devices expose serial console, otherwise nothing known about the internals. we'll see how long this will last. | Nov 06 04:51 |
activelow | russians pushed their glonass into space, and galileo was late several years. don't know anything, which decisions were made. | Nov 06 04:52 |
activelow | IBM may keep it as their "IP", don't care. it's not the success story told about some mars rover, it's the chaos left behind down on the ground, and the friction and costs. | Nov 06 04:54 |
activelow | who knows, nuclear shutdown scheduled for in germany 2020, as far as i could tell this falls into the exact same timeline General Electric had to worry about their PDP-11 code, now run inside emulators? or what are they doing? don't know. | Nov 06 04:55 |

activelow | well, yeah, this was an awesome combination: x.25 and related, isdn protocols, ss7, analog signal processing, laser optics, oracle databases, java, perl, c++, maths, all in parallel in a single schedule of 3years plus traineeship plus diploma degree | Nov 06 05:05 |
activelow | and once all exams were passed, with ~70% of the students having failed and left, then you may have gratefully asked german telekom management for a scientific support job. | Nov 06 05:06 |
activelow | btw., someone had assigned me a weird social security number at employment agency "0xxA1239456"... wtf. did they make me a social lab rat experiment too? | Nov 06 05:07 |
activelow | and given this was arranged for at below minimum wage, this didn't serve their "social ecological justice" yet. | Nov 06 05:09 |
activelow | angry? go see a psychiatrist and be prepared for de-nazification. | Nov 06 05:09 |
activelow | i had absolutely zero issues with a "person of color" in german telecom headquarter taking responsibility for trainees. didn't know at that time yet what "intercultural social sensitivity training" was supposed to be. | Nov 06 05:11 |
activelow | however, how did he get this job there? after having studied telco engineering or some social blather nonsense? | Nov 06 05:11 |
activelow | politics fiddling into this, below them a telco engineer being an underling because of whatever deficiency? | Nov 06 05:14 |
activelow | too, i think, in germany, the christian churches are hijacked vice versa together with politics and the corrupt media cartell of theirs. | Nov 06 05:15 |
activelow | after 1990, any ideological lunacy interfering was the "red socks" sniffing, anyone supposedly being a former "socialist" or spie or whatever. | Nov 06 05:16 |
activelow | german agencies were desperate, in fear of "red army terror" after they dismantled entire east-german industry and science, to hijack all leading positions at univerities there. | Nov 06 05:17 |
activelow | then come along some feminists, well "east germans are treated like women"... no they aren't. | Nov 06 05:17 |
activelow | women aren't a minority, east german young men are, if this is dissected further by higher education even less. | Nov 06 05:18 |
activelow | why bother with them? here is another "minor" detail, one of those "NSU" terrorists was the son of a physics professor of an east-german univeristy... | Nov 06 05:18 |
activelow | unrelated to myself, however, what would have made them running amok? | Nov 06 05:19 |

activelow | anyway, the fear of german politics isn't justified, although nazis are dangerous, it isn't them posing the main threat to society, it is the typical "social ecological justice" lunacies which are the cause, it is they themselves who protested on the streets "germany piece of shit die", with "greens" and their prominence in the first line | Nov 06 05:21 |
activelow | which is a political affiliation closely tied to, again, USA/washington and related mindset which has their home close nearby | Nov 06 05:21 |
activelow | Frankfurt/Hessen decided to keep "national socialist underground" (a propaganda slogan) files closed for 120years... because of a criminal gang? | Nov 06 05:25 |

activelow | here is another thing, which isn't "conspiracy theory", that is, supposedly "right wing" groups are/were a type of "agent provocateur"/"stay behind" sabotage groups in case germany was hijacked | Nov 06 05:26 |
activelow | myself, walking around the city, neither being involved with "red socks" stasi stuff, nor any right-wing one, none of this | Nov 06 05:27 |
activelow | i am only angry, for very specific reasons. | Nov 06 05:27 |
activelow | being a minority in my own country doesn't make me a criminal, i have rights. | Nov 06 05:28 |
activelow | churches in germany lost millions of members. that's another details. | Nov 06 05:30 |
activelow | and with my memories of post 1990, not in my wildest dreams would i ever consider to associate with such a corrupt cartell. | Nov 06 05:31 |
activelow | maybe the winners of 1990 had forgotten the friction of this time, i had not forotten. none of the current political establishment would came anywhere close to being not a constitutional enemy and outright hostile towards my existence. | Nov 06 05:32 |
activelow | why bother? it's just one failed telco engineering carreer. | Nov 06 05:32 |
activelow | thing is, some imaginary "lone wolf" right-wingers don't pose any relevant threat in germany, it's the polit establishment themselves who breed horror. | Nov 06 05:37 |
activelow | instead, they produce the type of bullshit agitation on facebook themselves, certainly not me. didn't post anything there once, nothing, no twitter, nothing. dead silence. | Nov 06 05:40 |
activelow | why are they complaining about mysogonism on facebook? i never did post anything at all. nothing. it is only them with their "social ecological justice" utopia spouting cracy nonsense. | Nov 06 05:41 |
activelow | it's men's fault women aren't employed as telco engineer? hell, i did leave telekom, any woman willing to take my place there may have it, didn't say anything. | Nov 06 05:42 |
activelow | anyway, since when i posted a test onto github and sent this to human resource offices: nothing, not a single response in two years, nothing. | Nov 06 05:44 |
activelow | because of what? i am nazi? having studied electronics and maths and computer stuff is nazi or racist? salary required to work and live doesn't meet their criteria of "social ecological justice"? | Nov 06 05:45 |
activelow | and those "greens", they now postpone the coalition talk schedule with their new associate, the "liberals". | Nov 06 05:47 |
activelow | German Telekom and foreign affairs was in the hands of "liberals", historically, in germany, diplomacy and international telko. | Nov 06 05:49 |
activelow | the last real job interview i had was in german finance ministry in Bonn. was surprised i was invited, not interested to relocate there, right into the hands of this criminal gang, Bonn, former capital city of germany. | Nov 06 05:55 |
activelow | east-germans almost always are portrayed as dumb-fucks on tv. if need be it's nazi, racist, mysogonist, social parasite sucking western cash, unproductive, then privileged white male, homophobe... listened to this for three decades now. | Nov 06 05:55 |
activelow | i would rather die than ever reaching out to any of this again. | Nov 06 05:56 |
activelow | they looted and plundered more than a decade of salary of mine. | Nov 06 05:56 |
activelow | close nearby Bonn, it is Cologne, where german aerospace is centered. | Nov 06 05:57 |
activelow | they are not afraid of me, the are afraid because they know what they did, since 1990. they know exactly what's awaiting them, regardless of what i do or don't. because this has nothing to do with me. | Nov 06 05:58 |
activelow | those few smirking feminist multi cultural visages on tv celebrating their victory, they shall have it. nuclear plants shut down 2022. they probably prepared their first class ticket already, to settle some place else. | Nov 06 05:59 |

activelow | it is remarkable, politics aggressively refueled the "right wing extremist" agitation in recent years, although there was less shooting fatalities in a decade in germany than there had been during a single weekend in chicago, rough estimate. | Nov 06 06:18 |
activelow | doesn't mean the incidents were irelevant, and this must be talked about, but it seems more like they intentionally seek to fuel hatred by this, instead of social peace. | Nov 06 06:19 |
activelow | and if social peace was threatened in germany, then it wasn't nazis at fault, because there are simply rarely any who could. | Nov 06 06:20 |
activelow | right-wing has almost zero media coverage, 99% is extremist left incitement against germans only, a minority which there are rarely any remaining in west german cities anymore. | Nov 06 06:20 |
activelow | most of the right-wing fringe as fully subverted by agent-provocateurs and government spies, nonetheless this right-wing is portrayed as "most severe threat". | Nov 06 06:22 |
activelow | since east-germans like me were supposedly affiliated, i am not and there aren't rarely any, who is it then? | Nov 06 06:24 |

activelow | and even if this entire idealogical framework was valid at some time, the "oppressive hierarchies" neo-marixst doctrine, there aren't any "privileged white male" remaining, nor was there any relevant political organziation of a generation of war veterans to dictate parliament. at least i hadn't seen any, and myself wouldn't identify with such. | Nov 06 06:29 |
activelow | they are talking as if a glorious future was ahead, as soon as all those privileged were gone, however this isn't any future prospect, they succeeded with this at least a decade ago already. | Nov 06 06:29 |
activelow | same with carbon tax or any other political plan for the future, the carbon tax was introduced already, twenty years ago, in germany. yet they talk as if this was any future plan to "safe the planet" | Nov 06 06:31 |
activelow | "the great replacement" isn't any future anymore, it was implemented already, this political type of mindset is in charge in west german for many decades, after 1945 denazification, 1968 student revolts, that's at least 50 years of "success" story already. | Nov 06 06:32 |
activelow | it's only a minor coincidence not all of the older generation was gone, after 1990 some germans remained in eastern parts, playing old card games, speaking an old dialect, none of which is a crime or "nazi" | Nov 06 06:33 |
activelow | certainly it was a historical scale error, to label east-germans unproductive western cash sucking parasites and nazis, and to take down the entire engineering and science there | Nov 06 06:36 |
activelow | i suspect, in line with the neo-marxist idea a society can arbitrarily be reshaped, a long tradition of culture and arts may simply be transplanted elsewhere, this didn't succeed at the scale they hoped for, although they looted all scientific libraries | Nov 06 06:36 |
activelow | twice, at least, 1945 and 1990 again. | Nov 06 06:37 |
activelow | and even if, all this "intellectual property" is useless, if no scientists remain to study the books, and instead practice "gender studies" and "social constructivism" | Nov 06 06:38 |
activelow | at the highest level of telco engineering and electronics, it is several degrees held in germany: diploma, a phd, and professor | Nov 06 06:39 |
activelow | and this generation, east and west, is retiring. | Nov 06 06:39 |
activelow | east-german unproductive western cash suckign nazi dumb fuck, this is what's ringing in my ears... privileged white male, "germany peace of shit die".. this is *official* german political ideological doctrine | Nov 06 06:41 |

activelow | with political influence it is 100% | Nov 06 07:43 |
activelow | meanwhile, federal state election in mecklenburg-vorpommern held in parallel to national parliament, finished with a new "red-red coalition" agreed upon there, among two leading women who immediately announced to introduce a new national holiday in this federal state: they introduced to celebrate "women's day" 8th march as offical holiday. | Nov 06 07:58 |

activelow | maybe, this explains the energy prices exploding, because the russian gas pipelines are terminated in mecklenburg vorpommern... | Nov 06 08:01 |
activelow | got no explanation yet, how they pay 200 and resell for 2000 with additional energy and eco tax on top | Nov 06 08:01 |
activelow | almost always it is russians accused of utilising gas pipelines for politics, although in germany it is "social democrats" and well, some former east-german left, who control this | Nov 06 08:03 |
schestowitz-TR | energy got expensive everywhere | Nov 06 08:04 |
activelow | they plan to introduce more cost-free kindergardens, male child caretakers, and "social justice" there; this could explain some of the excess surplus. | Nov 06 08:04 |
schestowitz-TR | which is strange to me as last year oil could barely be sold at all | Nov 06 08:04 |
schestowitz-TR | lack of demand, grounded plans, less production | Nov 06 08:04 |
activelow | it isn't the energy prices, it is the reseller prices and taxation which exploded | Nov 06 08:04 |
schestowitz-TR | so now we use up less energy and yet the price goes UP? | Nov 06 08:04 |
activelow | sure, some of the gas/energy is routed elsewhere, such as china maybe, or shipped via LNG terminals into usa | Nov 06 08:05 |
activelow | but this doesn't explain the surplus margin of 90% plus additional taxation on top | Nov 06 08:06 |
activelow | and it isn't the russians according to putin, who deliver bound by long-term contracts | Nov 06 08:06 |
activelow | northstream2 isn't terminated yet, and it was planned to be in mecklenburg vorpommern | Nov 06 08:07 |
activelow | where this new "red-red" feminist coalition announced their victory, without the termination finished by russia | Nov 06 08:08 |

schestowitz-TR | then again, "D" stands for Corporate, just like Conservatives | Nov 06 10:48 |
DaemonFC | Virginia is not a particularly conservative state. | Nov 06 10:49 |
DaemonFC | What's going on here is the Democrats are enacting an agenda that is so unpopular that they managed to blow it in a state that Biden carred by 10 points just last year. | Nov 06 10:49 |
DaemonFC | For now, they could stop the Republicans from doing too much by hurrying up and approving the maps the redistricting commission makes if they don't think they'll get a more favorable one before their terms expire, passing all sorts of legislation very quickly to strip the incoming governor of power (like the Republicans did in Wisconsin before they had to hand it over), and refusing to act on any of the Republican bills in the state Senate. | Nov 06 10:51 |
DaemonFC | But after 2023, it's anyone's guess. | Nov 06 10:51 |
DaemonFC | The job of the opposing party is to stall out the majority's agenda and force them to go back to the voters and not be able to say they got much of anything done. | Nov 06 10:52 |
DaemonFC | But the Democrats don't make a very good opposing party. | Nov 06 10:52 |
DaemonFC | In fact, they won't do any of this while there's still time, and when the government flips, they'll pass most of the stuff the Republicans want. | Nov 06 10:53 |
DaemonFC | When the shoe is on the other foot, the Republicans are willing to do enormous damage to the state or even the country to force compromises. | Nov 06 10:53 |
DaemonFC | The result is that after 2-3 weeks of a government shutdown, there's a new budget and it does all sorts of things the Republicans want even if there's not many of them. | Nov 06 10:54 |
DaemonFC | The Democrats make the worst opposition party ever. | Nov 06 10:55 |
DaemonFC | They gave Bush his wars, they gave him his very corrupt Medicare Part D. | Nov 06 10:55 |
DaemonFC | They gave Trump a bunch of judges even though they could have put up more of a fight. | Nov 06 10:55 |

DaemonFC | There's a reason they always lose in the first midterms, very badly. | Nov 06 10:56 |
DaemonFC | It's because they bicker and don't do big things and let the other side control the narrative even if they manage to get something done. | Nov 06 10:57 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, Copyright is a weird thing, isn't it? It flies in the face of economics. | Nov 06 11:40 |
DaemonFC | There was an episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine where O'Brien was pontificating that "union men" were heroes for standing up to coal companies way back when. Even dying for it. | Nov 06 11:41 |
schestowitz-TR | copyright in which context? | Nov 06 11:41 |

DaemonFC | They're not out there mining coal or anything. | Nov 06 11:42 |
DaemonFC | <schestowitz-TR> copyright in which context? | Nov 06 11:42 |
DaemonFC | Well, it's a monopoly. We say we're against those, but we dole them out all the time. | Nov 06 11:42 |
DaemonFC | Then people become unproductive because they can jsut sit there anf get royalties on what they've done in the past. | Nov 06 11:43 |
DaemonFC | Then they die and people who had absolutely nothing to do with it keep getting money from the copyrights. | Nov 06 11:43 |
DaemonFC | I wonder how much it _really_ costs to produce a computer game. | Nov 06 11:44 |
DaemonFC | How much revenue is really lost to piracy vs. people that will gladly play the game for free but would just do without if it was impossible to crack the DRM. | Nov 06 11:45 |
DaemonFC | It's hard to imagine a figure that's reasonable, so copyright owners always go with the worst thing it could possibly be. | Nov 06 11:46 |
DaemonFC | And that's where corn farming jobs are lost if you don't go to the movies. | Nov 06 11:46 |
DaemonFC | Movies used to be considered something cheap to do if you were bored that day. | Nov 06 11:47 |
DaemonFC | They lured people in during the Depression because it was so cheap to go to the movies. | Nov 06 11:47 |
DaemonFC | Like a few cents for a ticket and a few more cents for popcorn. | Nov 06 11:47 |
DaemonFC | These days, they want $15 a ticket unless it's Tuesday. | Nov 06 11:47 |
DaemonFC | Then you get in there and it's almost $30 for a popcorn and two drinks. | Nov 06 11:48 |
DaemonFC | So going to a movie with your spouse is not cheap thrills unles you go on Tuesday and don't buy anything at the concession stand. | Nov 06 11:48 |

DaemonFC | Because you can't go to the movies, right? | Nov 06 11:52 |
schestowitz-TR | the movies come to you | Nov 06 11:52 |
schestowitz-TR | no need to go to them | Nov 06 11:52 |
DaemonFC | Either you pay a lot of money to avoid those idiots because they don't have money and that's why they're there smoking a joint on $5 Tuesday. | Nov 06 11:52 |
schestowitz-TR | you can get a tablet for 50 pounds | Nov 06 11:52 |
DaemonFC | Or you sit next to them on Tuesday. | Nov 06 11:52 |
schestowitz-TR | and then you play back video on it | Nov 06 11:52 |
schestowitz-TR | that's the same as $60 | Nov 06 11:52 |
DaemonFC | Yeah, that's usually what I do now. | Nov 06 11:52 |
DaemonFC | That mall in Gurnee is struggling, but they still do better than most. | Nov 06 11:53 |
DaemonFC | They still actually have anchor tenants. | Nov 06 11:53 |
DaemonFC | The mall in Marion, Indiana is now mostly abandoned. | Nov 06 11:53 |
DaemonFC | They walled it off and keep it open for Applebee's and a department store that doesn't lead out into the mall anymore. | Nov 06 11:54 |
DaemonFC | 90% of it just sits there falling apart. | Nov 06 11:54 |
DaemonFC | When I was a kid, it was a nice mall. | Nov 06 11:55 |
DaemonFC | It had everything you could want. A nice book store, an arcade, a Penney's, a Sears, Hill's Department Store (an Indiana thing).... | Nov 06 11:55 |
DaemonFC | A movie theater... | Nov 06 11:55 |
DaemonFC | Then Walmart came in and the town started dying off. | Nov 06 11:56 |
DaemonFC | Now it's basically little Chicago. | Nov 06 11:56 |
DaemonFC | A very safe neighborhood where I used to go to school... | Nov 06 11:56 |
DaemonFC | Not so safe anymore. | Nov 06 11:56 |
DaemonFC | A 15 year old got shot off his bicycle the other day over there. | Nov 06 11:56 |
DaemonFC | Pretty much all of the white people left or are in the nursing home. | Nov 06 11:57 |
DaemonFC | The town is failed. | Nov 06 11:57 |
DaemonFC | The nursing home my grandmother is in is in the middle of a ghetto, but it's a nice nursing home. | Nov 06 11:57 |

DaemonFC | There's still a bunch of old people in the nursing home there just because it's the town they lived in before they got old. | Nov 06 11:58 |
DaemonFC | Pretty much the people living in Marion now, just live there because they have nothing. | Nov 06 11:58 |
DaemonFC | You can get a 1 bedroom apartment for $400. | Nov 06 11:58 |
DaemonFC | But it's dangerous to live there. It never was dangerous when I was growing up. | Nov 06 11:59 |
DaemonFC | You could go into almost any area and be confident nothing would happen. | Nov 06 11:59 |
DaemonFC | But the people living there now are not like then. | Nov 06 11:59 |
DaemonFC | It's not a thriving middle class town anymore. | Nov 06 11:59 |

DaemonFC | It's not like activelow is alone in lamenting the loss of his country's greatness or even acceptableness. | Nov 06 12:01 |
DaemonFC | The Democrats have pretty much no ambition of making us a great country again. | Nov 06 12:01 |
DaemonFC | They just dole out welfare to people who need dignity and a good job. | Nov 06 12:02 |
DaemonFC | Pay people off to make them shut up and keep voting for them. | Nov 06 12:02 |
DaemonFC | The reason the right has been so successful politically despite also delivering nothing, is they pretend to listen, and care, and talk to you as if they want to solve your problems. | Nov 06 12:05 |
DaemonFC | The Democrats are a bunch of cheese and wine snobs that rub it in your face that you're a trash person when you say you just want a life with some dignity, please. | Nov 06 12:05 |
DaemonFC | They care nothing for blacks, or black lives. | Nov 06 12:06 |
DaemonFC | They dole out welfare programs and just enough to keep the votes coming. | Nov 06 12:06 |

DaemonFC | They've already sent the message that they want her out of there. The only reason she isn't resigning is because she's spent so much money foolishly that she has no savings to get by on until Social Security kicks in. | Nov 06 12:12 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, In some ways, I feel bad for them, in some ways I don't. | Nov 06 12:13 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, It's amazing what the government can do. | Nov 06 12:20 |
DaemonFC | Did you know that we got a Hobby Lobby in Gurnee after the Democrats gave them $50,000 in subsidies, per minimum wage job? | Nov 06 12:20 |
DaemonFC | Yes, the Democrats gave a company led by the Christian Taliban that much in kickbacks for minimum wage jobs. | Nov 06 12:21 |
DaemonFC | The whole abortion is "any birth control" but we're stealing artifacts and having them smuggled in because there's nothing about that in the Ten Commandments... | Nov 06 12:21 |
DaemonFC | They worked out a deal with the government. | Nov 06 12:22 |
DaemonFC | They give back the artifacts and pay a trivial fine. | Nov 06 12:22 |
DaemonFC | And the government doesn't send any of them to prison, like they would if it was you or me taking something worth $100 from a store. | Nov 06 12:22 |
DaemonFC | See how that works? | Nov 06 12:22 |
DaemonFC | I'm so glad we live in a functional democracy with equality and rule of law! | Nov 06 12:23 |
DaemonFC | I'm still waiting for a year to go by where the cops in Chicago or Waukegan solve more crimes than they commit. | Nov 06 12:25 |
DaemonFC | My attorney in the case involving John acted like he was shocked the police would lie. | Nov 06 12:25 |
DaemonFC | They spent 6 hours without a translator present taking incriminating statements, somehow, from a person who spoke no English..... | Nov 06 12:26 |
DaemonFC | It was in the Tribune.... | Nov 06 12:26 |
DaemonFC | And you don't know that they lie? Come on. | Nov 06 12:26 |
DaemonFC | They lie to you. | Nov 06 12:27 |

DaemonFC | Jason Van Dyke's wife still hasn't divorced him. | Nov 06 12:29 |
DaemonFC | I'd have cut him loose already and I would certainly not be going to the media in Chicago claiming that he got framed. | Nov 06 12:29 |
DaemonFC | He's going to be in the hole for 24 years. | Nov 06 12:29 |
DaemonFC | They're keeping him in the hole because the other prisoners damned near killed him on arrival even though they put him in a federal prison in Connecticut figuring it would keep him safe. | Nov 06 12:30 |
DaemonFC | And if they let him out of the hole, next time he'll be drinking his meals through a straw. | Nov 06 12:30 |

DaemonFC | While people are rummaging around in trash bins looking for half-eaten food in the Democratic People's Republic of Chicago. | Nov 06 21:24 |
DaemonFC | It's effectively a city-state, so if people wonder why it's so much worse than the rest of Illinois, that's why. | Nov 06 21:25 |
DaemonFC | The state delegates its authority down to Chicago under a special home rule allowance, so they get to do almost anything they want, even if it's normally illegal under state law. | Nov 06 21:26 |
DaemonFC | And that would be why gasoline is almost $5 a gallon in the city, while it's opnly $3.40 elsewhere. | Nov 06 21:26 |
DaemonFC | Among other horrors. | Nov 06 21:26 |
DaemonFC | My parents are panicking that gas is almost $7.50 in parts of California and about $5 in Chicago. | Nov 06 21:27 |
DaemonFC | That's not due to oil prices. It's due to Democrats and their neverending list of taxes, which will all improve your life immediately, you know. | Nov 06 21:27 |
DaemonFC | They need your money so that they can commission murals of a 20-time felon then send other people out by mistake on community service to paint over them with a nice military gray. | Nov 06 21:28 |

DaemonFC | Agreeing to all sorts of nonsense. | Nov 06 21:34 |
DaemonFC | Yes, you can use COPR or PPA to build things for Fedora or Ubuntu and host them, but it costs you your freedom. | Nov 06 21:35 |
DaemonFC | They can come cancel you easily now and point to a Code of Conduct. | Nov 06 21:35 |

DaemonFC | "To access the workaround, you’ll need to dig into your PC’s BIOS settings during the bootup sequence and then switch the “Legacy Game Compatibility Mode to ON (one-time only),” according to Intel’s instructions. The next time you launch the affected game, you would press the Scroll Lock key on your keyboard (sometimes shortened to “Scr Lk.") You then should be able to run the game with no crashes. Once you exit the title | Nov 06 23:06 |
DaemonFC | , you would tap the Scroll Lock key again, to toggle it off." | Nov 06 23:06 |
DaemonFC | I love Intel. | Nov 06 23:06 |

schestowitz | psydruid: a lot more than 10% | Nov 06 23:08 |
schestowitz | iirc, mips and risc already dominate, but not the big machinees | Nov 06 23:08 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz, I thought about jsut mailing my landlord the entire year's rent and going here you go. | Nov 06 23:12 |
DaemonFC | Then I had another thought. | Nov 06 23:12 |
DaemonFC | "Do I want him to know I'm capable of that when we negotiate the next lease?". | Nov 06 23:12 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: pay the dentist witha fistful of earpods or whatever it's called | Nov 06 23:12 |
