DaemonFCAs bad as the new IT stuff is with STATE OF ILL, they now don't have the warning "Don't attempt to apply for your FOID Card using a phone or tablet or it could get denied." It's amazing how we have a Constitutional right, and we live in a State where you get to pay for a card or you don't get a Constitutional right (if this was a poll tax the ACLU would be all over it like a dog in heat, but...Feb 12 00:39
DaemonFC...that's an aside). But then you also got denied a constitutional right if you applied for the card using an iPad or Firefox on an Android phone.Feb 12 00:40

DaemonFCThey said it was a poll tax.Feb 12 00:40

DaemonFC24th Amendment Section 1 states "Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice President, for electors for President or Vice President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress, shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax."Feb 12 00:42
DaemonFCThat's fair enough.Feb 12 00:42
DaemonFCBut Amendment 2 just as clearly states "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.[32]"Feb 12 00:43
DaemonFCWhat is the "militia"? Every citizen of the United States is the "militia" according to historical precedent and case law.Feb 12 00:43
DaemonFCSo it basically says "Every citizen of the United States shall have a right to keep and bear Arms" and it "shall not be infringed".Feb 12 00:43

DaemonFCAn infringement can be considered charging money for a FOID Card, or even requiring permits at all.Feb 12 00:44
DaemonFCIf permits are required, they should be issued as an expense against the State general fund, to whoever should want one.Feb 12 00:44

MinceR:>Feb 12 00:48
DaemonFCI am of the thought that a textualist reading of the Constitution does give Citizens a "right to privacy". It would be illogical to assume otherwise. What little case law there is around the Third Amendment is that it was cited as yet more evidence that the Founders assumed people should have privacy in their own home from the government.Feb 12 00:48

DaemonFCI suppose they didn't include "privacy" as its own amendment because it was obvious that reading them together, that Citizens have this right.Feb 12 00:50

DaemonFCThis is still one of my favorite scenes.Feb 12 01:34
DaemonFCThe first 4-5 seasons of Rick & Morty were pretty good, before Justin Roiland was accused of all sorts of crimes. When the "battery" charges got thrown out, they came back and got him for "rape".Feb 12 01:34
DaemonFCWhen the system thinks you got away and it really wants you, it will go make something else up or making hay from something that's not really so bad. Like having sex, with an adult, who changes her mind later and decides it was rape. You know, that's how the world works now. Don't ever be alone in a room with a woman, a child, or a teenager. Never ever be alone in a room with any of them. Ever.Feb 12 01:34
DaemonFCYou know, Gonad's friend Myron's daughter was like 15. She was big old hoebag, anyway, she started hitting on me while I was over there and she wasn't even subtle, and she did it right in front of her mom and dad, Brian, my mother. Then when it didn't work, later she came back down not wearing any underwear and bent over to "tie her shoes" right in front of Brian. I mean, there are some...Feb 12 01:34
DaemonFC...twisted people in this world and you can get into some serious shit real easily.Feb 12 01:34
DaemonFCOf course, with the ready, shoot, aim system and society that starts "canceling" people before anything has been decided, I can't say anything about whether these accusations against Roiland are real. If you have sex with a woman, adult woman, they can just change their mind and revoke the consent three years later and now you're fucked. The allegation that he "talked" to some 16 year olds...Feb 12 01:34
DaemonFC...as well just makes it so much worse. "Feb 12 01:34

schestowitz- C.A.R. Hoare, “There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult.”Feb 12 05:08
schestowitzFeb 12 05:09
schestowitz    “The belief that complex systems require armies of designers and programmers is wrong. A system that is not understood in its entirety, or at least to a significant degree of detail by a single individual, should probably not be built.”Feb 12 05:09

DaemonFCSo, I have been forced to use a work Windows 11 laptop. The right-click desktop menus are totally retarded, I ALWAYS have to click  "more options" to show the real menus to find what I want. Total user interface failure.Feb 12 05:50
DaemonFCBut at least it worked... well, until a few weeks ago when it did an update and started randomly BSODing with a bullshit "Kernel Security Check Failure”. Uninstalled the update, told it to "pause"and all was well. Until Microsoft, in their infinite glorious ass-fucking wisdom, decided I was no longer allowed to avoid updating. I had kind of hoped that they fixed their shitty code, or...Feb 12 05:50
DaemonFC...automatically identified whatever the problem was, but nope. Back to BSODing.Feb 12 05:50
DaemonFCAfter some wild guessing, I manually updated the video driver. That seemed to fix the problem. Remember, this machine does not even belong to me, so I shouldn't have to do anything with it.Feb 12 05:50
DaemonFCBut no, there was nothing that indicated there was any known compatibility problem. The driver that had been installed was the exact same version that was still posted on the laptop vendor's (ASUS) web site. Had to use the Radeon driver directly from the AMD site instead.Feb 12 05:50
DaemonFCAs best as I can tell this last update added kernel integrity checks that broke some drivers. You just don't break drivers like that in a minor update. That is dumb.Feb 12 05:50
DaemonFCThat also raises the question of why Windows does not automatically update drivers. There is still an entire malware market out there for tools that automatically "update" drivers. At least in the case of a KNOWN INCOMPATIBILITY, it should damn well do SOMETHING. Feb 12 05:50

DaemonFCI've got to hand it to Microsoft, only they could make something as simple as turning on a computer such a big ordeal. Every time I have to turn on a Windows 10/11 computer I have to worry: Will it want to do updates for the next hour instead of letting me get things done? Will it spend all morning sluggishly scanning for viruses? Will it suddenly show me more advertising that I have to hunt...Feb 12 05:51
DaemonFC...down and disable? Will it take away features today that I need to get work done? Will it add unnecessary hoops that I have to jump through to get things done? Will it refuse to boot, making me waste time digging out and restoring a backup? Will it suddenly start BSODing? (happened already) Will it suddenly magically stop recognizing my I/O devices? (also already happened). Will I have to...Feb 12 05:52
DaemonFC...re-learn everything all over again? Will it tell me that I am suddenly "unsupported" and have to run out and buy a new computer for some retarded arbitrary reason that gives me less than zero benefit.Feb 12 05:52

DaemonFCI voted for Nikki Haley a few minutes ago.Feb 12 21:52
DaemonFCThe Republican Primary here is weird.Feb 12 21:52
DaemonFCYou have to vote for the candidate, then you have to vote for three of their delegates to the convention and three alternates.Feb 12 21:53
DaemonFCI have no idea how this could be so badly designed. In Indiana it's just "Which candidate?".Feb 12 21:53
DaemonFCI guess maybe even if they lose the "winner takes all" they could potentially get a few delegates anyway.Feb 12 21:53
DaemonFCTechnically, you CAN vote for Nikki Haley and then pick Donald Trump's delegates. Or two of Trump's and one of Chris Christie's (even though he quit months ago), or whatever.Feb 12 21:55
DaemonFCIt seems more open for voter error in my opinion.Feb 12 21:55
DaemonFCYou may forget to put your glasses on and then vote for the right candidate and the wrong delegates to send to the convention.Feb 12 21:56
MinceRi wonder if it's like in Postal2Feb 12 21:56
DaemonFCI really wish they would go to a system where every state was a primary, the results were binding, and delegates were awarded proportionally to the votes the candidate got.Feb 12 21:56
MinceRhttps://static.wikia.nocookie.net/postal/images/0/09/Ballot1080.png/revision/latest?cb=20140705192503Feb 12 21:56
DaemonFCThings could get a lot more interesting.Feb 12 21:56
DaemonFCYou wouldn't have to win every state, you'd just have to win some and not lose too badly in others.Feb 12 21:57
DaemonFCBut the parties set the rules for delegate allocation.Feb 12 21:57
DaemonFCIn STATE OF ILL< the results are binding, but it's winner takes all for the majority of delegates.Feb 12 21:57
DaemonFCI think we have like 67 delegates or something and so that would be 64 is whoever achieves a plurality of the vote, and then 3 are awarded by election of delegates themselves.Feb 12 21:58
DaemonFCSo if you lost the State the best you could do would be to pick up 3 out of 67 delegates.Feb 12 21:58
DaemonFCBut since those are on a Statewide election themselves and it says who the delegates support on the ballot, the winner of the State probably gets all of those too.Feb 12 21:59
DaemonFCMinceR: So a payments app that is owned by PayPal demanded to see my state-issued photo identification to unfreeze the account and shut it down.Feb 12 22:09

DaemonFCfor various reasons (their failure to meet US gas mileage regulations for passenger car platform vehicles being the largest) they aren’t sold in the US.Feb 12 22:12
DaemonFCa few attempts were made at bringing them here (in this case, to the US), such as the el camino, and the ford explorer “truck” variant, but they generally haven’t been successful here.Feb 12 22:12
DaemonFC---Feb 12 22:12
DaemonFCGas mileage requirements are self-defeating.Feb 12 22:12
MinceRindeedFeb 12 22:13
DaemonFCThe liberals imposed them and then set lower standards for "trucks" so then everyone went and bought a truck and the trucks are heavier and pollute more, then more people on bicycles got killed by the trucks because there's more ground clearance and weight and bigger engines.Feb 12 22:13
DaemonFCAnd everyone who stayed with cars just kept fixing their old gas guzzler forever because the gas mileage and safety mandates doubled the price of a new car.Feb 12 22:13

DaemonFC"Nobody likes fees, but a fee is a transparent way of pricing something."Feb 12 22:19
DaemonFCProbably explains the banks re-arranging transactions in orders that they were not made in, as well as deliberately finalizing incoming deposits late, in order to "transparently" hit the consumer with as many overdraft fees as possible.Feb 12 22:20
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 22:20

DaemonFCschestowitz I suppose if banks set their interest rates too low on savings products, more people will pull their CDs and start purchasing Treasury Bills as the CDs mature, assuming federal debt pays more.Feb 12 22:53
DaemonFCYou get a State tax exemption on those anyway so that helps too.Feb 12 22:53
DaemonFCThere's probably a "not worth bothering with a Treasury account" spread, but it'll be a tight one.Feb 12 22:54
DaemonFCIf your CD offer go down to 4% and a 4 week T-Bill is paying 5%, I mean, people will start buying T-Bills at that point.Feb 12 22:54
DaemonFC4 week T-Bills are very short term. It only ties up the money for about a month at a time and they can be scheduled to reinvest.Feb 12 22:55
DaemonFCThe federal debt problem will probably act as a "red line" for what the banks offer.Feb 12 22:56
DaemonFCThen since the banks will have deposit outflows if the spread becomes too large, bank failures could easily happen if people start tying up their savings in the federal debt instruments.Feb 12 22:57
DaemonFCBecause it will cause a liquidity problem for the banks.Feb 12 22:57
DaemonFCSo they have two choices. Accept lower profits by keeping interest rates competitive, or suffer deposit outflows to more attractive fixed income options.Feb 12 22:57
DaemonFCSo far, they've just obviously taken a look and said "We think we can bump everyone down a quarter point and get away with that.Feb 12 22:58
DaemonFCThat will ease the pressure on their bottom line, but not by much.Feb 12 22:58
