●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Friday, December 06, 2024 ●● ● Dec 06 [00:07] Sompi "what would happen if Silicon Valley was wiped out by a disaster" <- That could be a good thing in the long run... [00:10] IsambardPrince How the hell would Dexter get out of the United States that fast when there's a fugitive alert and they've canceled his credit cards. [00:10] IsambardPrince You cannot just walk into an airport and buy an international one way ticket that day, and even if you could they're going to have shut off your passport already. [00:11] IsambardPrince I told Mandy to keep renewing his Philippines passport because it doesn't cost much and it provides a way out of the country if anything were to happen and they cancel his American one. Nobody ever knows what will happen in the future. I mean I can't see any reason why that would come up. [00:12] IsambardPrince But it leaves an option on the table to deal with it if it does. [00:13] IsambardPrince Having a foreign passport also makes it easier to travel to places the US government doesn't like without them knowing about it. Of course, I can't see why we'd do that either and all I have is a US passport. [00:13] IsambardPrince Travel to Cuba will most likely get harder again under Trump. [00:13] IsambardPrince It's sort of allowed now if you say you're going to "support the Cuban people". [00:14] IsambardPrince But you have to be on some kind of group tour or something and if you sort of wander off there'll be hell to pay when you come back. [00:17] IsambardPrince MinceR, Illinois isn't authoritarian at all. [00:17] IsambardPrince They just passed another law telling us which light bulbs we're allowed to have. [00:19] MinceR lol [00:19] cmb Now that's what I call a government that is clearly working for the people! [00:21] IsambardPrince They banned CFLs. [00:21] IsambardPrince You are now required to buy LEDs. [00:21] IsambardPrince You can buy tube bulbs still. [00:23] *x-amarsh04 has quit (connection closed) [00:24] IsambardPrince MinceR, They found homeless people sleeping in a water tower. [00:24] IsambardPrince So the mayor of a city with horrible budget problems had a contractor go out there and demolish it without opening it up for bidding. [00:24] IsambardPrince :) [00:24] IsambardPrince It had been sitting there for over 60 years unused. [00:24] IsambardPrince So naturally we couldn't spend a week or two getting bids. [00:26] MinceR of course [00:32] *x-amarsh04 (~amarsh04@28zhuu2v47wgn.irc) has joined #techrights [00:39] Sompi It's interesting how an abandoned building suddenly becomes "a problem" when homeless people start using it as a shelter [00:41] *x-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)

[01:19] IsambardPrince They never did that and then they tore it down when the homeless invaded and caused 911 calls all day for overdoses then burned part of it down. [01:20] IsambardPrince Sompi, Yeah, they had people out there tearing down the water tower the next day once the city realized homeless people were sleeping in it. [01:20] IsambardPrince It hadn't been used since 1968. [01:20] IsambardPrince So almost 60 years rather. [01:20] IsambardPrince But it wasn't bothering them until now. [01:21] IsambardPrince Now they say the city will have a half an acre to do something with. LOL [01:28] IsambardPrince MinceR, I was disappointed that Dexter got caught. [01:29] IsambardPrince I was hoping to see his sister get promoted again so she could be....Captain Morgan. [01:29] IsambardPrince :D [01:29] MinceR :) ● Dec 06 [02:18] IsambardPrince "The offer of $10,000 for information on the killing of Mr. Thompson is on the upper end of the reward scale and could motivate people to come forward, said Richard M. Aborn, the president of the nonprofit Citizens Crime Commission. [02:18] IsambardPrince It means theres a very high-profile shooting that is being taken incredibly seriously, Mr. Aborn said, adding, Information is the life blood of policing, and cops are going to do whatever they can to get information. [02:18] IsambardPrince Eli B. Silverman, a professor emeritus at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York who has written extensively about the citys police, said he was initially surprised by the size of the reward. But he said the prominent location of the shooting, the high profile of the victim and the intense news coverage explained the offer. [02:18] IsambardPrince This person is more than a statistic, Mr. Silverman said. This stands out. This attracts attention. And so I think thats why theyre going that way." [02:18] IsambardPrince In other words... [02:18] IsambardPrince The NYPD would never pay out $10,000 for information that leads to the arrest of a murderer, as long as they don't kill someone who is rich. [02:19] MinceR so, someone finally killed someone the state actually cared about [02:19] MinceR the message being "if you're not this rich, we don't give a fuck about you, but we're still going to take your money" [02:20] MinceR have i mentioned that i'm absolutely disgusted with humanity yet? [02:20] MinceR humans are scum [02:33] IsambardPrince Basically. [02:34] IsambardPrince MinceR, That's the most believable part of Dexter. [02:34] IsambardPrince That he could kill as many criminals as he wanted to and not be caught (until the plot required it). [02:35] IsambardPrince The police don't try to figure out why murderers disappear. [02:35] IsambardPrince They're not even working murder cases where the victim wasn't a criminal, just poor.
