[02:42] IsambardPrince I bought a water tester for the office water quality. After using it in the office, I inspected the Brita water purifier at home. And I was very disappointed and shocked by the unexpected result. I replaced the old filter with a new one because the figures on the water tester were bad, but I still got a bad result with a new one(52). How can it show worse results in the Brita water than in the tap water(41)? The tap water numerical [02:42] IsambardPrince result is better than that of the Brita water purifier.

[02:51] IsambardPrince Only effective against chlorine taste and odor and mainly useful if you're filling the bottle throughout the day and can't just take some water from home with you. [02:51] IsambardPrince Use is limited since you can rarely find public drinking fountains in the US anymore. [02:51] IsambardPrince Nobody wanted to use them after the end of segregation. [02:51] IsambardPrince White people decided they'd rather buy disposable bottles of water than drink after black people. [02:52] IsambardPrince Black people are free to buy bottles of water too. [02:52] IsambardPrince Finally, equal! [02:52] IsambardPrince Nestle loved this. [02:52] IsambardPrince You may now romance Nestle. [02:53] IsambardPrince Anyway, that's what white people responded to desegregation with. [02:53] IsambardPrince They fled the cities and took their school tax money with them. [02:53] IsambardPrince Built suburbs. Built their own schools. [02:53] IsambardPrince Got rid of/quit building public pools unless there's no black people in sight. Then you might find one. [02:54] IsambardPrince Started building private pools in the backyard in the suburbs. [02:54] IsambardPrince Ripped out the drinking fountains. [02:54] IsambardPrince Desegregation orders can say you can't have segregated pools, drinking fountains, and schools. [02:55] IsambardPrince But it can't stop white flight or ripping out the pools and drinking fountains. [02:55] IsambardPrince So the desegregation rulings just made everyone even worse off. [02:56] IsambardPrince Because when the whites fled cities like Detroit and there was no money for the schools, and they said "We're all equal now, have fun with that.", the schools failed. [02:56] IsambardPrince Today Detroit Public Schools is over 80% black. [02:56] IsambardPrince Most of the rest is Hispanic. [02:56] IsambardPrince Only 4% White. [02:56] IsambardPrince In the 1970s, there was a civil rights case that said the remedy for this was going to be forced busing. [02:57] lightbringer hispanic vs herpanic [02:57] IsambardPrince What this meant was that white kids were going to be bused to schools in detroit and black kids were going to be bused into the suburbs, and the property taxes were going to be redistributed. [02:57] IsambardPrince But the order never went into effect so the schools just failed in the city. [02:57] IsambardPrince When the schools failed, the city became littered with uneducated minorities who couldn't read or do math. [02:58] IsambardPrince And then the city got so bad that it had to file bankruptcy. [02:58] IsambardPrince So they "won" and then the next 50 years happened, and it was unkind to them. [02:58] IsambardPrince They were better off before Brown v. Board of Education even happened. [02:58] IsambardPrince Because it caused the tax base to flee and quit funding the schools. [02:59] IsambardPrince And now you have a lot of people living in a failed city shooting each other. [02:59] IsambardPrince Which is how Democrats tend to leave things. ● Aug 14 [03:00] IsambardPrince The commentary from criminal foreigners aside.... [03:00] IsambardPrince The ones who cannot know why things are so bad here and will never improve... [03:00] IsambardPrince It's not racist to point this all out. [03:00] IsambardPrince That desegregation in the US was botched so badly that it became worse than nothing at all [03:01] IsambardPrince Desgregation actually sparked something rather like Apartheid in South Africa. [03:01] IsambardPrince It encouraged all the white people to leave and set up their own system once they were pretty sure that the blacks couldn't follow them. [03:01] IsambardPrince Part of the reason why these places like San Francisco are very expensive is this. [03:02] IsambardPrince When you make it so unaffordable that all those people you don't want to live next to anyway can't live there. [03:02] IsambardPrince You can constantly say how big and liberal you are. [03:02] IsambardPrince Without having to be inconvenienced. [03:03] IsambardPrince This is how liberals are. [03:03] IsambardPrince Open borders! [03:03] IsambardPrince *Builds a wall between California and Mexico. Demands all the illegals live in Texas.* [03:03] IsambardPrince Defund the police! [03:04] IsambardPrince *Spends a million dollars in police overtime in SF just to stop people from skateboarding for a single afternoon.* [03:04] IsambardPrince Universal Basic Income!

[06:18] IsambardPrince There's a reason why a certain person up north can't be employed anywhere and it [06:19] IsambardPrince It's because the first thing that happens when they go in an interview room is the person says in their head "Sweet Jesus, what the fuck is that?" [06:19] IsambardPrince "I don't want any problems in our workplace." [06:19] IsambardPrince Then out loud, "Thank you very much for your time, we'll call you if anything opens up." [06:20] IsambardPrince Some people never understand that most of the words people say and the pleasantries they exchange are meaningless. [06:20] IsambardPrince The words themselves are meaningless. [06:20] IsambardPrince They flatter each other insincerely for all sorts of reasons. [06:20] IsambardPrince They say things they don't mean to misdirect and give you no recourse. [06:21] IsambardPrince You'd have to be a fool to want to make life harder on yourself by giving a society that won't react well something to lock onto. [06:21] IsambardPrince There's apparently a Chinese saying that goes something like "the nail that sticks out gets hammered down". [06:22] IsambardPrince Basically, don't be that nail. [06:22] IsambardPrince There's certain things people expect to see that can't be regulated by politicians. [06:23] IsambardPrince They can't be regulated into liking it. [06:23] IsambardPrince They may be regulated into saying bullshit. [06:23] IsambardPrince But they won't mean it. [06:23] IsambardPrince And that's what you people in inferior English speaking countries doen't appear to realize. [06:23] IsambardPrince Maybe, not on a conscious level. [06:23] IsambardPrince It's like living in the Soviet Union, being in Canada or the UK. [06:24] IsambardPrince All you can do is go inside your house, slam the door, lock it, and say "Oh my God, you will never believe what came into my office today!" [06:24] IsambardPrince But it happens. :) [06:24] IsambardPrince I know it does. [06:24] IsambardPrince They're still humans living there. [06:24] IsambardPrince Humans with no Constitution, but you know. [06:24] IsambardPrince Nobody's perfect. [06:24] *KindOne_ (kindone@user/meow/KindOne) has joined #techrights [06:29] IsambardPrince The Handmaid's Tale is probably the best work of Dystopian Fiction I've ever seen. I really quite enjoyed the TV show so far. [06:30] IsambardPrince It paints the United States getting so bad that people are trying to flee into Canada. [06:30] IsambardPrince And it makes it seem almost plausible. [06:31] IsambardPrince The only people trying to sneak into Canada are selling them guns and getting their dick sucked by someone they met on Grindr in that peace park between Washington and British Columbia. [06:31] IsambardPrince Nobody else want to go there, much less live there, unless they're some sort of complete nutjob that lost their mind. [06:31] IsambardPrince You think shit's bad down here, try finding a job up there. [06:32] *KindOne has quit (*.net *.split) [06:32] *KindOne_ is now known as KindOne [06:32] IsambardPrince Even if you do, they'll take half your money in taxes, leave you with no real healthcare (you won't live long enough if it's serious), and your rent will at least triple. [06:32] IsambardPrince Some life. [06:32] IsambardPrince And in return you get winter that's even worse. [06:33] IsambardPrince National Healthcare Countries take something that's about on part with the shittiest healthcare the US doles out to the poor (Medicaid) and makes sure nobody gets anything better. [06:33] IsambardPrince *on par [06:34] IsambardPrince Even with fucking Medicaid you can get in with a doctor and start your cancer treatment in about a month. [06:34] IsambardPrince Which is by no means guaranteed in most "national healthcare" countries. [06:34] IsambardPrince Theirs is a disaster because it reduces healthcare to some system where since everyone gets something nobody gets much, because the government wants to make good on its obligations as cheaply as possible. ● Aug 14 [07:00] *GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [07:01] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techrights [07:33] TR News Software Patents https://www.tomshardware.com/3d-printing/weve-always-respected-intellectual-property-bambu-lab-responds-to-3d-printer-patent-lawsuit | Source: Tom's Hardware [07:33] TR Bot "We've always respected intellectual property": Bambu Lab responds to 3D Printer patent lawsuit | Tom's Hardware [07:34] TR News (NEW): 5 most beautiful Linux distributions: 'Equal parts user-friendly and eye candy' https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/5_most_beautiful_Linux_distributions_Equal_parts_user_friendly_.shtml | Gemini address: gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/5_most_beautiful_Linux_distributions_Equal_parts_user_friendly_.gmi [07:34] TR Bot Tux Machines 5 most beautiful Linux distributions: 'Equal parts user-friendly and eye candy' [07:34] TR News "A truly effective remedy need seek not only to punish Google for its past offenses" https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/technology/the-google-antitrust-case-must-not-end-with-a-slap-on-the-wrist/articleshow/112501406.cms | Source: India Times [07:34] TR Bot Google Antitrust Case: The Google antitrust case must not end with a slap on the wrist - The Economic Times [07:34] TR News "The court case in December was appealed by Google to the Supreme Court" https://siliconangle.com/2024/08/13/ftc-enters-google-v-epic-games-case-hints-google-broken/ | Source: Silicon Angle [07:34] TR Bot enters Google v.

[22:52] IsambardPrince Charles Manson lived in far less aggravating times and even then they produced Charles Manson. [22:53] IsambardPrince I wonder what anyone living today is supposed to do. [22:57] IsambardPrince schestowitz[TR2], Someone on FICO Forums today was asking how to get his credit limit on the BofA credit card up to $8500 because he needs a "silicone coating" for his roof. [22:57] IsambardPrince LOL [22:57] IsambardPrince One of the joys of home "ownership". Put $8500 on a credit card to make the bank's roof better so you owe a mortgage on a house with $8500 in credit card debt for a roof improvement. [22:57] IsambardPrince Which the bank also gets if you fuck up. [22:57] lightbringer BofA deez nuts [22:59] IsambardPrince I may start doing more shopping at Jewel. [22:59] IsambardPrince It was so much less ghetto than Walmart. [22:59] IsambardPrince They have sales, coupons, people that bring your order out, properly bagged even. ● Aug 14 [23:00] IsambardPrince This shit where Walmart got rid of the credit card with the 5% on online pickups also adds some weight to the other side of the scale. [23:00] IsambardPrince Now the best I can do there will be 3% unless it's onn a Discover category that quarter. [23:00] IsambardPrince I can get 6% with AmEx at anything that codes grocery. [23:01] IsambardPrince Walmart is sort of a jack of all trades, master of none. [23:01] IsambardPrince They've never invested in grocery quality, they raised their prices though. [23:01] IsambardPrince They bring you out rotten produce, dented cans, and jars with the safety lid up. [23:02] IsambardPrince And the attitude is just "call 800 walmart" like "I just work here, man." [23:02] IsambardPrince And they say it to you while they're walking away with their back turned. [23:02] IsambardPrince I mean, there is no customer service. They said the deal with "Crapital" One ended because of customer service. [23:03] IsambardPrince It's because in addition to "investing in surge prices" for salad dressing, Walmart also wanted to take away a lot of your credit card points. [23:03] IsambardPrince So this credit card thing is a little salt in the wound to go along with prices in a hyperinflationary spiral. [23:04] IsambardPrince I think the big box concept is just dying, honestly. [23:04] IsambardPrince Walmart should be looking to reduce product redundancy and get store footprint and pricing under control. [23:04] IsambardPrince They've already kind of done this. [23:05] IsambardPrince They didn't increase the size of the store for online shopping, they took about 15-20% of the existing floorspace. [23:27] IsambardPrince Banks have a great angle. They get back houses all the time that people did 7 day a week 12 hour shifts to keep, maintain, and improve. [23:27] IsambardPrince And while those people are in between losing houses, they fix them. [23:28] IsambardPrince Landlords deal with something else. [23:29] IsambardPrince They have tenants that live there and have no reason to even try to prevent normal wear and tear much less fix anything. [23:29] IsambardPrince They get the unit back and hopefully it's not trashed. [23:30] IsambardPrince Ours currently gets no value out of half this building. [23:30] IsambardPrince He's not even breaking even. [23:30] IsambardPrince schestowitz[TR2], Here's what I think happened. [23:30] IsambardPrince I did not see the last one filing eviction cases against anyone. [23:30] IsambardPrince I think he was writing off the rent they owed him, quietly, and saying they were current. [23:31] IsambardPrince So he could pass it off as a building full of reliable tenants that was totally occupied. [23:32] IsambardPrince Regardless of whether the new one pursues this or not, the old one is in the stronger position of having already gotten the money and transferred the building. [23:34] IsambardPrince The new one certainly doesn't write off rent. [23:34] IsambardPrince He keeps sending his henchmen and minions to throw people to the curb and toss all their belongings out the window and into the yard. [23:34] IsambardPrince Then he rents a dumpster and tosses it all in there. What I can't figure out is why he's not finding any new tenants. [23:35] IsambardPrince The old woman next door moved out on June 13th. It is now August 14th and that unit is still empty.

[23:50] IsambardPrince Bonds are less risky. [23:50] IsambardPrince Bond prices will go up and make the funds more valuable without the turbulence of stocks. [23:52] IsambardPrince Stocks used to be a good investment, overall. [23:53] IsambardPrince There used to be generally competent management in corporate America, consequences for failure, and a business strategy [23:53] IsambardPrince Some of the CEOs we have now make Carly Fiorina look brilliant. [23:54] IsambardPrince The Destroy Everything with Incompetence initiatives are costing money. [23:55] IsambardPrince In the case of my light bill, it's something I just have to absorb with steeper prices because the Democrats won the last election and stopped making the power company pretend your bill went down. [23:56] IsambardPrince The Consumer Price Index (CPI) showed inflation held largely steady in July. Consumer prices rose 2.9% year over year in July, the first time headline inflation has dipped below 3% since 2021. On a "core" basis, stripping out costs of food and energy, prices rose 3.2% year over year. Both numbers largely met Wall Street forecasts. [23:56] IsambardPrince lol [23:56] IsambardPrince I wonder when they'll admit that rent goes up 3% per month.
