Well, that's fun.

Jan 14 01:48

DaemonFC

So the Treasury issues these weird electronic 1099-INTs without any FEIN (payer ID) on them.

Jan 14 01:48

DaemonFC

And TurboTax demands a FEIN or it won't let you enter them.

Jan 14 01:49

So I spent 20 minutes figuring out what the Treasury Direct FEIN is so I could enter my 1099-INT.

DaemonFC

The IRS is nice and puts lettering on the outside of the envelope so you know what it is before you open it up.

Jan 14 01:53

DaemonFC

If you ever get anything with "CID" written on it, it means you should go shit before you open it and shit yourself. :)

Jan 14 01:54

DaemonFC

There's basically three levels of fucked with IRS Audits.

Jan 14 01:55

DaemonFC

There's CP2000, which is just "they've corrected the return because of a bit of unreported income", could be a few bucks you owe them, could be hundreds or thousands, or it could actually be a refund (in which case you're not fucked. They audited you and they found out they owe you money and here's a check.).

Jan 14 01:58

DaemonFC

Then there's Civil Penalties. This is bad. This would be like, you substantially underreported your income and they fine you for that.

Jan 14 01:58

DaemonFC

Then there's CID cases.

techrights-ipfs-bot

DaemonFC

This is willful tax fraud. They take you to court, you owe all of the penalties, and you can go to prison and be fined as part of the conviction too.

DaemonFC

You have to have done something really bad to get to the CID.

DaemonFC

They have to prove that you deliberately took bogus deductions or under-reported by an amount so large it couldn't have possibly been overlooked.

Jan 14 02:00

DaemonFC

They've never even done this to my dad, back in the 90s, when that's basically what all of his returns were.

Illinois has a law called BIPA, the Biometric Information Privacy Act.

Basically every corporate "social media" company and every smartphone app and Google and Apple and most Android vendors, as well as Microsoft and Amazon are being sued over this.

DaemonFC

Alongside hundreds of other "tech" companies.

DaemonFC

Pretty much any device or program that sees your face.

Why? Because they're all breaking the Illinois privacy law.

A lot of it was American-made. They had a TV department and the RCA and GE TVs were all made in Indiana.

And the Republican governors go over to kiss Xi's ass and ask him for some fertilizer plants or something.

DaemonFC

Our TV sets made in 1985, a lot of them still work.

DaemonFC

Most Chinese sets blow up in a year or three.

DaemonFC

Chuck 'em to the curb.

DaemonFC

American TVs outlived the workers who made them.

schestowitz[TR]

Yes, we made a damned good product, but it was for "consumers" who didn't want to pay anything for quality.

schestowitz[TR]

a soldering gun and some parts off ebay won't fix it

My mechanic has a 1995 Honda and he says he keeps it because he can always get his plates and not have to do any emissions work on it.

schestowitz[TR]

When I was on probation for Disorderly Conduct, they gave me a Machiavellian Personality test.

I told her I recognized the questions.

DaemonFC

When she said "The difference between a criminal and everyone else is the criminal got caught.", I said, "A Law Professor named Harvey Silverglate wrote a book saying that the average American commits three felonies a day without realizing it. And that's just the federal laws. You follow anyone around and choose to care about it, you have a criminal. Sure."

"A garbage disposal system is not judged by its fairness, but rather by its ability to dispose of garbage quickly and inexpensively."

DaemonFC

When your "justice system" starts viewing human beings as garbage to be broken down and gotten rid of quickly, you're not living in a Free country.

MinceR, I pleaded guilty to the Disorderly Conduct statute precisely because it's incomprehensibly vague.

It describes literally so many different types of behavior that it's impossible for anyone to determine what you did if you were sentenced for it.

The only reason to have public defenders up for re-election that I can think of is so the public can punish them for defending their client if they actually manage to do so.

Jan 14 04:15

DaemonFC

It was actually Florida that lost the Supreme Court case that now requires states to provide a public defender. (Gideon)

DaemonFC

Prior to that, it was very common to have all kinds of cases where you didn't have a lawyer unless you could pay for one yourself, perhaps even if the state was trying to kill you at the end of your trial.

DaemonFC

The legacy of Trump is potentially to undo this too. Those Republican judges are far from finished.

gimme sec imma google

Jan 14 04:32

geert

oof i already get some see

Jan 14 04:36

geert

SJW entanglement maze with lots of people trying politize others etc.

Jan 14 04:37

geert

many pointing at tate and others because they would be deliberately imperfect and stimulating such imperfection with others, *according* to *their* *view*

Jan 14 04:38

geert

and vice versa

Jan 14 04:38

mjg59_

I mean, he's a rapist

Jan 14 04:38

geert

i wouldn't be too sure about that

geert

there is so much misinforming tendencies going around these days

mjg59_

Who's just been arrested for forcing women into sex work

geert

already convicted, too?

mjg59_

Nope

geert

so well lets try not mess up state of law like many those SJW entangled politizing goons try

geert

this pointing based on *their* *perception* suggest couple of things;

Jan 14 04:40

geert

the pointers would be less deliberately imperfect, kind of ubermensch

Jan 14 04:40

geert

shit goes down *outside* court, so populism hearsay, not so much professional rebuttal

mjg59_

He sent someone a whatsapp message saying "I loved raping you"

geert

do we know this for sure?

mjg59_

Yes

geert

do we know for sure its not some fetish where he still requires consent?

mjg59_

The woman in question asserts that she didn't give consent

geert

so did he keep spamming her, stalking her or was it maybe assumption from his side that she'd share such fetish, possibly?

geert

it wouldnt be the first time if such tries would be abused

mjg59_

He raped her, and then she continued a consensual relationship with him

geert

how do we know for sure he raped her?

geert

who is saying this

geert

you say he got arrested for it but not convicted or is it another case already?

geert

look imnot trying to say im pro his stances

geert

i just dont like the SJW populism nasty going round so much

also, many those who point about 'deliberate' imperfection try to influence others indirectly with it, kind of sublimal advertising but than rather social/emotional psychology for so called 'ideology' causes

btw in b4; vice is *much* politizing nastyinvolved

Jan 14 04:45

geert

they fricken get paid to politize

Jan 14 04:46

geert

well part of pay though

Jan 14 04:46

geert

hmmm exactly as i already though, LOADS of SJW escalation

Jan 14 04:47

geert

why would they refuse to pursue charges with some serious proof?

Jan 14 04:48

geert

writing such sms could be SJW crap from his side too, just considering so called 'libtards' assholes he could mess with or something seeking attention

Jan 14 04:48

geert

'rape' means RAPE, as in SERIOUS RAPE. if he did that, charges should be pursued, but then again, its very unlikely if there wouldn't be proof about such crimes

Jan 14 04:49

geert

this shit smells like lots of SJW gutter crap on both sides

Jan 14 04:49

geert

his side e.g. with such nasty messages for whatever reason, whether its to shock or whatever

Jan 14 04:49

mjg59_

Sure is impressive how this channel just keeps attracting people who want to defend rapists

geert

imrather defending state of law

geert

refusing to call somebody rapist for some messages vice got access to

schestowitz[TR]

mjg59_ goes to conferences for sex

schestowitz[TR]

accuses others of rape something

schestowitz[TR]

mjg59_ alsom wants to stab people

mjg59_

schestowitz[TR]: Yeah I keep telling you that's not true and you keep saying it

schestowitz[TR]

accuses others of violence

geert

we get plenty frustrated people who write frustrated messages for also politizing goals etc. who didnt got commit to least bit of rape

schestowitz[TR]

mjg59_ transphobe

schestowitz[TR]

uses that to attack other people who are not

schestowitz[TR]

go hide under a table, ugly loser

geert

we should seriously refrain from populism stances

geert

if somebody commit rape, they leave stuff like dna on the body

geert

if such victims dont live in 'dprk' but e.g. uk, this is quite easily proven

geert

its not like themiddle ages

geert

i really dont try favor the SJW populism mess going round

geert

btw on all 'sides of the isle'

Jan 14 04:52

geert

i dislke 'anti libtard' shit too btw

Jan 14 04:52

mjg59_

geert: No, there's potentially evidence that sex occurred. But even then, it's common that victims don't report rape until that's no longer possible to verify.

Jan 14 04:52

schestowitz[TR]

<MinceR> "Print length" "1 pages"

geert

than if victims wait so long, its partially on them if a rapist walks

schestowitz[TR]

leaflet?

geert

i would almost consider it complicit to the fricken crime

geert

supermarkets practically around many corners etc

geert

many middle age victims would be very very fond with todays means

geert

middle ages* victims

Jan 14 04:54

geert

people from hundredsyears ago

Jan 14 04:54

mjg59_

geert: Sure, that has an impact on whether or not someone is convicted of rape. Doesn't change whether or not it was rape.

Jan 14 04:54

geert

mjg59 basically with todays means if victims DO get serious about demanding police intervention, no rapist needs to walk

geert

as long as people demand intervention/press charges

geert

which goes beyond reporting to me with larger crimes such as rap

geert

rape*

schestowitz[TR]

Jan 14 05:16

geert

legalese 'disproportional' is in court often related to 'common sense'/'habits', generalized 'psychology'

Jan 14 05:17

in dutch they got stuff like 'redelijkheidsbeginsel' etc.

schesto i actually get to like lots of considering in here, atm ima converting the video to another format, saved the link for a bit later, maybe we get to talk about it monday

before i get more indepth on it i think its better watch the video, not glance the article but read it, mesmerize/think some about it and then discuss with e.g. you

geert

according to dutch legalese

and btw not just dutch

geert

throughout whole eu, also in uk /us and many other countrie

geert

countries*

schestowitz[TR]

"collecting",

schestowitz[TR]

define that

schestowitz[TR]

if I have a mail client

schestowitz[TR]

and I send messages

schestowitz[TR]

and that goes into the address books

schestowitz[TR]

it that "collecting"?

schestowitz[TR]

anyway, gdpr can be misused to protect corpoat crimes

geert

any collecting,either in business inbox etc.

*GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection)

schestowitz[TR]

under the guise of "privacy"

geert

although companies generally get to legally cut one out of business mail box

schestowitz[TR]

and personal email accounts of people are typically not secret

geert

but one still legally writes down e.g. email addresses from biz inbox

schestowitz[TR]

some peole publish these in sites like MS LinkeOut

geert

one cannot just legally do anything with it though

*GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrights

geert

but collecting is basically legal

geert

as long as its about collegues

geert

not legally being able to just do anything with it doesnt mean you cannot contact them later on after you got cut from biz inbox as an example

geert

that kind of contacting is basically legal

geert

collecting inf about customers e.g. writing down email addresses from biz inbox thats wholly different story

geert

trying leech employees from company too, if they got proof on one trying that stuff

geert

but one should watch out, since if one employee mix personal email with biz inbox, they basically provide employer insight into that

Jan 14 05:45

geert

its kind of like handing over a private photo book to the employer

I'm a White man, and I go to court to ask for an expungement regarding a plea deal that I took under an Illinois "breach of the peace" law that is rooted in Segregation and the Ku Klux Klan, which has never been repealed.

DaemonFC

Once it's on the books, the state never wants rid of it.

DaemonFC

While the intention of the Illinois legislature was to criminalize doing nearly anything while Black if the police officer wants to cite it, it can be twisted and applied to anyone.

DaemonFC

I am a victim of a racist law.

DaemonFC

The cops admitted while I was down there that they were overcharging me so that I would give up and plead to Disorderly Conduct. The officer said, matter of factly, "Get yourself a good attorney and you can get this down to Disorderly Conduct. I would not settle for anything less than that.". So depending on how you look at it, the guy at the desk who released me without bail (who was not on duty when the others brought me in 8 hours prior)

DaemonFC

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-slate.com | Introduction

DaemonFC

"At the federal prosecutor’s office in the Southern District of New York, the staff, over beer and pretzels, used to play a darkly humorous game. Junior and senior prosecutors would sit around, and someone would name a random celebrity—say, Mother Theresa or John Lennon.

DaemonFC

It would then be up to the junior prosecutors to figure out a plausible crime for which to indict him or her. The crimes were not usually rape, murder, or other crimes you’d see on Law & Order but rather the incredibly broad yet obscure crimes that populate the U.S. Code like a kind of jurisprudential minefield: Crimes like “false statements” (a felony, up to five years), “obstructing the mails” (five years), or “false p

DaemonFC

retenses on the high seas” (also five years). The trick and the skill lay in finding the more obscure offenses that fit the character of the celebrity and carried the toughest sentences. The, result, however, was inevitable: “prison time.”"

DaemonFC

"Why are there dead zones in U.S. law? The answer goes beyond the simple expense of enforcement but betrays a deeper, underlying logic. Tolerated lawbreaking is almost always a response to a political failure—the inability of our political institutions to adapt to social change or reach a rational compromise that reflects the interests of the nation and all concerned parties. That’s why the American statutes are full of laws that no

DaemonFC

one wants to see fully enforced—or even enforced at all.

DaemonFC

This political failure can happen for many reasons. Sometimes a law was passed by another generation with different ideas of right and wrong, but the political will necessary to repeal the law does not exist."

DaemonFC

This happened very recently.

DaemonFC

In 1996, the panic over the possibility of gay marriage caused Congress and President Clinton to pass the "Defense of Marriage Act".

DaemonFC

The law was literally gay panic in black and white text.

DaemonFC

It said that states don't have to recognize same-sex marriages performed where they're legal, and the federal government never will.

Jan 14 07:41

DaemonFC

It took well over 8 years AFTER the US Supreme Court struck it down for Congress to remove it from the law books.

Jan 14 07:41

DaemonFC

And it took almost 20 years of sitting on the books, fully enforced, for the Supreme Court to admit it was unconstitutional.

Jan 14 07:42

DaemonFC

Right now, state law books are littered with unenforceable same-sex marriage bans.

DaemonFC

It "sends a message" that your state won't repeal them.

immibis

here's the X11 thing and why we need something like Wayland: https://magcius.github.io/xplain/article/

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-magcius.github.io | Explanations

DaemonFC

And there's a chance that they might become enforceable again.

immibis

DaemonFC

"Whatever the reason, when politics fails, institutional tolerance of lawbreaking takes over."

DaemonFC

There's a law in Huntington, Indiana that makes the local Walmart illegal.

Jan 14 07:45

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

It's pretty funny. AFAICT, Walmart decided to sell dildos, vibrators, and butt plugs without checking what any local ordinance or state law on that is.

DaemonFC

So many of their stores are now illegal.

schestowitz[TR]

wayland is not ready

schestowitz[TR]

lots of things I use are not compatible

schestowitz[TR]

at all

schestowitz[TR]

not flaky

schestowitz[TR]

just not compatible. PERIOD.

schestowitz[TR]

with no plans to make it compatible

immibis

did you read it? now or in the past

schestowitz[TR]

this week

schestowitz[TR]

i know what does not work

schestowitz[TR]

even if wayland offers something

schestowitz[TR]

if it breaks something

schestowitz[TR]

then I'm not interested

immibis

nobody is talking about wayland except yo

immibis

schestowitz[TR]

you brought it up today

schestowitz[TR]

many talk about wayland

schestowitz[TR]

and the consensus is that it's not there yet

immibis

the point is that X is wrong not that wayland is right

schestowitz[TR]

and they keep saying next eyar

immibis

like if I say "here's why github is better than sourceforge because sourceforge is using an outdated model" and you say "github is terrible because it's proprietary" that is missing the point

they prmote "modern" things for no good reasons

Jan 14 08:08

nobody is proposing wayland just saying X has problems and something like wayland is the way to solve those problems

Jan 14 08:09

i.e. something where applications submit buffers

People using GitHub as their Web site without actually hosting a project or paying Microsoft is sort of funny.

schestowitz[TR], neither EPA nor railway answered

Jan 14 08:16

DaemonFC

I'm reading the chapter about the Hobbs Act.

Jan 14 08:17

DaemonFC

The way I see it, Trump violated the Hobbs Act numerous times while in office.

immibis

something based on the just-submit-buffers-to-compositor model is guaranteed to win in the marketplace. If you don't want it to be Wayland you better start working on an alternative. X with Compose extension is also that, but it's full of cruft

agg1

the EPA (environmental protection agency, nuclear safety and radiation protection) required 3month now, to notify me four times the application documents are being processed

immibis

and doesn't handle input properly

DaemonFC

Not the least of which was Sprint/T-Mobile.

agg1

one employee at EPA even complained to me, i supposedly attached a dangerous file, which was an ASCII file with a digital signature of the documents only

Jan 14 08:19

Jan 14 08:20

agg1

anyway, meanwhile i didn't program anything anymore, and terminated all my work... since then i got alot of time to relax and clean my appartment

Jan 14 08:21

agg1

given the fact, with the recent "energy prices" i could not heat any room anymore, and had to treat the walls with chlorine to prevent fungus, which i did

Jan 14 08:22

agg1

the financial department notified me, my objection is being processed and may require up to three month for a conclusive response

Jan 14 08:23

agg1

so, i checked all data again, and prepare for a criminal complaint about this

Jan 14 08:23

agg1

had a short phone call with the energy provider too, who explained energy prices were ~12cents/kWh for natural gas, and 44cents/kWh for electricity (electricity price too doubled recently!)

schestowitz[TR]

<immibis> it's not just about those pages, it's also about cementing github as "the" place to host things

schestowitz[TR]

yexs, exactly

schestowitz[TR]

or amazojn as "the place" to shop

agg1

anyway, the landlord didn't respond to my letter either, to explain how he could bill me 100cents/kWh or more; and that's what i prepare for to file a criminal complaint at court

schestowitz[TR]

some people learn this in uni/college

schestowitz[TR]

they think git=-github

schestowitz[TR]

and web pages are also github

agg1

neither financial department nor the landlord responded yet

or FB

immibis

agg1: he's your landlord, that means he's your lord, that means he can do whatever he likes with no consequences. Such is life in capitalism.

Jan 14 08:26

agg1

wrong immibis, all citizens in germany must comply with law, such as civil law (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch)

Jan 14 08:27

immibis

the law says landlords can do whatever the hell they want and it's unconstitutional for the government to stop them

immibis

Die Würde des Eigentums ist unantastbar.

agg1

buying energy/gas for 12cents and selling it for 10x the price is a violation of law (BGB §138), one example

immibis

Die Würde des Eigentums ist unantastbar.

immibis

Die Würde der Rendite, auch.

immibis

When a referendum comes 59.1% "yes please just take the property back from the landlords because they are mismanaging it" - "Sorry! Expropriation is unconstitutional"

Jan 14 08:29

immibis

When a coal company wants to mine straight through a village instead of 50 meters to the left "We are expropriating your village."

Jan 14 08:29

agg1

furthermore, if the landlord spouses threats then this is a criminal case (extortion and fraud, erpressung), which is even outside of civil law then, that's criminal and subject to penalty (Strafgesetzbuch)

Jan 14 08:29

agg1

there's another fact which is ridiculously simple to comprehend: energy which i do not consume must not be paid for, end of discussion

Jan 14 08:30

agg1

they bill me with energy which i do not consume at all, alot of it, 10x of the real consumption is what they put on my bill since october last year

Jan 14 08:31

agg1

that's another reason why, all this climate activism is a misnomer, because energy which i do not consume doesn't harm the climate or anything

agg1

that's how they "justify" this, "energy prices" supposedly increased , which they didn't nowhere near what they put on my bill, carbon tax to safe the climate and whatnot

agg1

so the real deal is only this, they want cash for nothing

agg1

that's not "renewable energy", that's Nothing-Energy taxed with 99.9% eco-tax

immibis

climate activism has nothing to do with your landlord stealing money

agg1

wrong

immibis

if they were burning coal your landlord would bill you for the cost of building a nonexistent coal furnace

immibis

just like he bills you for nonexistent energy

agg1

there is some tricky legal background to this energy-billing and taxation, and the landlord isn't at fault for this

immibis

so why don't you tell us

Jan 14 08:36

agg1

contrary, the root cause of this nonsense is exactly this: the "climate activism", which is a cash-grabbing propganda scam

Jan 14 08:36

agg1

it is "climate activists" at fault with their demands for "nuclear shutdown" (march 2023 in germany), hence coal power plants operate at maximum

Jan 14 08:37

agg1

there is that many political twists and lies involved, it's moot to discuss any further

Jan 14 08:37

agg1

i hope police will grab batons and beat those "climate activists" (alliance90/greens) out of government into jail

Jan 14 08:37

immibis

what does this have to do with being billed for nonexistent energy

Jan 14 08:38

mjg59_

Completely normal set of channel participants

Jan 14 08:39

agg1

immibis, social spendings for example, "eco tax" in germany (which had not been ecological ever), was tied to social spendings

Jan 14 08:39

mjg59_

"Why is my IRC channel full of people who defend rapists and argue against climate science" is a question Roy apparently never asks himself

Jan 14 08:39

immibis

agg1: btw what did the greens propose to replace nuclear with, and was it actually built? if not, why not?

immibis

agg1: recommending the police to beat people you disagree with is itself a crime, therefore I hope the police will grab batons and beat you into jail :)

agg1

immibis, the "greens" (alliance90) replaced nuclear power with the most gigantic subsidy fraud in german economic history

immibis

so what is the subsidy fraud

immibis

why don't you tell us

agg1

the fraud is trivial, "renewable" installations (solar, wind turbines etc.) provide nowhere near any amount of the advertised energy

*techuser (~techuser@y48h84m3bw69c.irc) has joined #techrights

immibis

why do you just keep saying "there was subsidy fraud" like trump says "there was voter fraud"

agg1

however, the amount of energy is the basis for the subsidies and taxation funneled into this

agg1

hence they operate with totally fraudulent data, to maximize subsidies funneled into their "renewable" nothing-energy

immibis

so you are saying they did not provide the return on investment that was expected?

agg1

even worse

immibis

nothing-energy means they are totally useless. They produce zero energy?

agg1

not really, however, there had never been a sane discussion, based on technical and economical facts

immibis

so they cost too much?

immibis

they do produce energy but they cost too much per energy amount

immibis

agg1

because, i consider wind turbines and solar panels a reasonable NICHE-product

agg1

wrong, wind turbines and solar panels produce almost nothing, those installations are almost irelevent concerning total primary energy requirements of german industry

Jan 14 08:44

immibis

after the Ukraine war I bought a solar panel and used it to charge a 12V battery - indoors, mind you! - to power an electric sign which I brought to climate protests. Anti-hypocrisy. Works fine.

immibis

indoors through a window

immibis

in direct sunlight the panel which is like half a square meter makes about 50 watts

agg1

nonetheless, they, alliance90/green, seek excess subsidies and taxation for this, it is no coincidence either alliance90/greens excessively agitate for war and weapons supplies in Ukraine

immibis

(very rough estimations)

immibis

why do you insist they produce almost nothing? There are gigawatts of wind turbines in the EU IIRC

agg1

well, police grabbing batons and beating those war criminals into jail is a rather mild penalty for what they did

immibis

why are you so opposed to *literally free energy* and you insist on digging your energy out of the ground?

immibis

a wind turbine is basically a perpetual motion machine

immibis

the wind blows and you get energy

<immibis> I want to see you jailed

schestowitz[TR]

he did not commit a crime afaik

agg1

then germany buys more power from france and for some reason all the politicians debate nuclear and coal instead of setting up more windmills

agg1

Russian oil and gas it is

agg1

too coal was supplied by russia

agg1

and to my knowledge France is in trouble with their energy grid itself

immibis

yes, greenwashing. They pretended coal wasn't that bad because the village demolition was happening in Russia and not Germany

immibis

agg1: then price rises to balance supply and demand. As a right-winger you know this.

immibis

people who do not want to pay the price reduce their demand

agg1

misnomer, the price cannot balance any energy which i didn't consume

immibis

and more sources come online that were unprofitable at lower prices

immibis

you still have not explained this payment for non-energy

agg1

someone else is consuming it, and i receive bills for this

immibis

sounds like your landlord is illegally tapping off your meter

agg1

that's why they present fraudulent bills

agg1

the recent billing was fraudulent

immibis

sounds like your landlord is illegally tapping off your meter, which has nothing to do with the greens

agg1

whoever had written the bills based on the political agenda here

Jan 14 09:16

agg1

because the landlord contracted a service provider for this

Jan 14 09:16

agg1

i had a phone call with the energy provider too, who explained they are still selling energy (electricity 44cents/kWh, natural-gas for 12cents/kWh), and it wasn't them who fraudlulently billed this

Jan 14 09:18

immibis

You are deliberately refusing to explain what you are talking about. Usually when someone refuses to explain it means THEY are making shit up.

Jan 14 09:18

immibis

If the bill said you used more energy than you actually did -> someone tampered with your meter OR it's an estimated bill (no meter reading) and grossly wrong, but cancels out in the next bill

Jan 14 09:18

agg1

i am not making anything up, on the natural-gas bill the recent "energy price" was more than 100cents/kWh

agg1

no, i lowered consumption and they "tweaked" the "price" to 10x what the energy provider asks for

agg1

for natural gas

immibis

but the consumption was displayed correctly?

techrights-ipfs-bot

immibis

then you are not paying for energy you didn't use. You are paying for a profit margin. Of your landlord, probably.

agg1

the consumption data is separated into hot water and heating

immibis

which has nothing to do with green energy

agg1

the hot-water metering is reliable and correct, and too the pricing is

agg1

however, and this is what i am looking forwared to, what the "energy price" for ZERO heating was supposed to be, which i will know march 2023

Jan 14 09:21

Capitalist utopia of so-called 'full employment' is more unreachable than ever, no matter how the yardsticks are re-defined, as there's excess capable (adult) workforce and lots of automation renders the labour obsolete.

Jan 14 09:36

schestowitz[TR]

<immibis> If the bill said you used more energy than you actually did -> someone tampered with your meter OR it's an estimated bill (no meter reading) and grossly wrong, but cancels out in the next bill

The more I read of this book, written by a lawyer who has been around since 1967, the more I feel vindicated in my belief that state prosecutors see it as their job to ignore the government's own laws regarding their own conduct, attack defense attorneys to scare them away from representing their clients, and intimidating and bribing witnesses and tampering with evidence, any method of which would be illegal if you did it in your defense.

Silverglate dedicated part of a chapter to a defense attorney that deleted a laptop full of evidence that was a crime to possess.

DaemonFC

Feds then go after attorney for failing to retain evidence, under Sarbanes-Oxley.

DaemonFC

This creates a situation where it's both illegal to have something and illegal to get rid of it. You'll go to fed prison either way.

DaemonFC

In Illinois, state law says it's a defense in state court to say you've deleted it, but to raise this defense you have to violate SOX.

DaemonFC

Sarbanes-Oxley creates the situation where EVERY SINGLE TIME you delete a file from your computer, you may have committed a felony that could land you 20 years, if that file MIGHT have POSSIBLY been used in ANY federal investigation at ANY point in time, even if there was no investigation when you deleted the file, you had no reason to think there ever would be an investigation, and no reason to think the file could be evidence of any wrongdoing.

Under the Illinois Rules of Evidence, there are differences in how files are stored in a computer.

If a file is on the hard drive in a browser cache, it's not considered "on the computer" even if it's on the disk, if a file has been deleted and is in unallocated clusters, same thing.

If you've ever sat back and wondered why the fed prosecutors almost always get a conviction or a plea deal from a defendant and why juries, which are composed of American citizens just like in state government trials don't let the same sort of people go at similar rates, it's because federal prosecutors are given much more latitude in how to get "witnesses" to turn on each other and lie in court to save their own ass, or even in exchange for

They say conspiracies fall apart faster the more people you bring in on them, but in reality, federal prosecutors operate by inducing witnesses to lie in court, so even if there is no conspiracy, they can cook things up to look like there is one.

Then they "climb the ladder" of the "conspiracy" to get to who they want.

Quite often the victims of "ladder climbing" are political rivals who have done nothing wrong, and people who make campaign contributions to the opposing party of the President.

The federal courts in the United States work so differently than at the state level that the defendant is usually signing their own death warrant by requesting a jury trial in federal court because judges actually convict people far less often than juries do.

DaemonFC

But only 2% go to trial.

DaemonFC

The plea bargaining system results in a 99.8% conviction rate while going to trial results in 1 in 12 defendants being acquitted.

DaemonFC

Taken together, over 8% of the people who plea bargain would've been acquitted.

DaemonFC

Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz

@DaemonFC

DaemonFC

If we take those statistics and apply them to 150,000 criminal trials at the federal level in 2015, then we can assume that roughly 12,495 people who did nothing wrong took plea bargains in a single year at the federal courts alone to be spared something worse.
