MinceRthe Great Big Anti-Communist Heroes also introduced some Totally Not Communist Price Controls, and that too, predictably, caused prices to increaseFeb 15 00:00

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Edict on Maximum Prices - WikipediaFeb 15 00:02
IsambardPrinceMinceR, The Edict also came with currency debasement.Feb 15 00:02
IsambardPrinceAt the time they changed the coinage from like half gold to like 1% silver.Feb 15 00:02
IsambardPrinceThey swore it was still worth the same amount.Feb 15 00:03

IsambardPrince#FuckedFeb 15 00:05
IsambardPrinceThen another tweet about clean air, land, and water. You know, when you run a data center off a big smoking coal plant you get lots of clean air, land, and water, right?Feb 15 00:07
nobodymodern coal power plants got exhaust gas treatment installations though.Feb 15 00:08
IsambardPrinceIt's too bad the US doesn't have modern coal plants.Feb 15 00:08
IsambardPrinceWe have ones leftover from the 1950s even, which have been granted "waivers" from the more stringent emissions rules from 1990.Feb 15 00:09
IsambardPrinceThey spew out all sorts of toxic shit that the Japanese ones don't, and they get less than half as much power output from a given volume of coal.Feb 15 00:09
IsambardPrince:)Feb 15 00:09
IsambardPrinceThe only way it would be worse is if you had a coal plant leftover from the Soviet Union that was still running, probably.Feb 15 00:10
nobodyAfD wants their "nuclear power" "cheap", add to thisFeb 15 00:10
IsambardPrinceif we can't figure out how to run energy production, we should outsource it to the Japanese.Feb 15 00:10
IsambardPrinceThe Japanese put a lot of effort into efficiency with the power plants.Feb 15 00:11
nobodywell, in a way you do IsambardPrince, because most commodity goods are "made in china" with coal burned there to ship the goods to USA and wherever elseFeb 15 00:11
IsambardPrinceBecause they have to import their coal, which makes it exorbitantly expensive.Feb 15 00:11
IsambardPrinceSo it compels them to make the most of what they import.Feb 15 00:12
nobodyincluding "solar panels", a ton of coal burned each, that's "renewable" and "environmentally friendly"Feb 15 00:12
IsambardPrinceThe Democrats and the Green New Scam.Feb 15 00:12

IsambardPrinceA solar collector tower in the desert.Feb 15 00:12
nobodythe entire "climate" dispute is total FAKE, with anyone involvedFeb 15 00:13
nobodythe "climate policies" that were implemented by our "environementalists" in germany had the complete opposite effect of environmental protectionFeb 15 00:14
nobodywe are burning coal at record amnounts, record _amounts_ of combustion engines on the roadsFeb 15 00:15
nobodyrecord amounts of electronics wasteFeb 15 00:15
nobodythe "carbon tax" subsidizes those who waste most energy and resources, and sanctions those who produce most effectively with least amount of energy and resources wastedFeb 15 00:15
nobodythen, they're confusing earnings with spendings, for this scam to flourish, the more energy that got wasted, the better to cash in "carbon tax"Feb 15 00:16

IsambardPrinceThe Republicans plan to impeach judges that rule against Trump.Feb 15 01:31
IsambardPrinceThey'd need 17 Democrats in the Senate to go along with it.Feb 15 01:31
MinceRthere are no RepublicansFeb 15 01:31
IsambardPrinceI don't know why they'd do this.Feb 15 01:33
IsambardPrinceIf they walk the articles over to the Senate, they have to go into an impeachment trial on each judge that could eat up two weeks.Feb 15 01:33
IsambardPrinceDo they want to waste that much Senate floor time?Feb 15 01:33
IsambardPrinceImpeachment is easy. It happens a lot. But removal is a different story.Feb 15 01:35
IsambardPrinceMinceR, Someone said they had all their Chase accounts slammed shut after they bought crypto on coinbase.Feb 15 01:40
IsambardPrinceI replied, "Lots of bad things happen with Chase cards. I remember one guy paying for a friend's bankruptcy lawyer and it wasn't even his bankruptcy, with a Chase debit card. Then Chase slammed all of his accounts shut and mailed him a check for his account balance as soon as the word "bankruptcy" appeared on his statement in that transaction."Feb 15 01:40

IsambardPrince:DFeb 15 01:46
MinceR(not to be confused with the American Ocean, which is on the other side of America.)Feb 15 01:46
MinceRno, because most of Florida will be under waterFeb 15 01:47
MinceRit's quite the opposite of draining the swampsFeb 15 01:47
IsambardPrinceMinceR, We're going to rename Hudson Bay too when we expand into Canada.Feb 15 01:47

IsambardPrinceWith nobody to complain to.Feb 15 01:49
IsambardPrinceSo many lakes to rename to Lake America.Feb 15 01:50
IsambardPrinceWe'll also have to do something about Nunavut because how do you even say it. It's easier to rename it than find out.Feb 15 01:50
IsambardPrinceI'm thinking "America".Feb 15 01:51
IsambardPrinceAnd then once we're up there anyway.Feb 15 01:51

IsambardPrinceTrump says he wants to get rid of nuclear weapons.Feb 15 01:53
IsambardPrinceThat seems like an odd statement coming from him.Feb 15 01:54
MinceRhe could fire them all off at muscovy and communist chinaFeb 15 01:54
IsambardPrinceI guess Elon doesn't like paying for those either.Feb 15 01:54

IsambardPrinceI-130 (Family/Consular processing)Feb 15 02:01
IsambardPrinceWe filed end of November 2023--married Sep 2023. I'm USC and wife is Pakistani. We talk almost daily via video call and I'm barely handling it. It's easier for me since I work a very demanding job that takes a lot of my focus but my wife is taking online classes and has more time to reflect. Today she just broke down suddenly and it frigging killed me. I feel so helpless. I want to visit her but taking time off right now would be Feb 15 02:01
IsambardPrincecareer suicide especially when so many tech companies are doing layoffs--for context I'm a senior sde at Microsoft and our product is really struggling. I feel so helpless in this situation. Why the hell are spousal applications multi year long when it directly impacts Americans from literally starting their lives. Please help me understand why we aren't protesting these absurd times for SPOUSES for God's sake! Can we petition Trump Feb 15 02:01
IsambardPrinceto look into this considering his wife also went through a similar process?Feb 15 02:01
IsambardPrince----Feb 15 02:01
IsambardPrinceMicrosoft SDE...product really struggling...would be  "career suicide" to take time off to go see his wife.Feb 15 02:01
IsambardPrinceWork-life balance and other fictions.Feb 15 02:01
IsambardPrinceThat pretty much confirms that it's well known inside Microsoft that they'll throw you out like garbage if they think you're not devoting every waking minute to them, and they still might even if you are.Feb 15 02:02
MinceRi've seen the term "work/meeting/daydreaming about work balance"Feb 15 02:06

MinceRin the engineering senseFeb 15 02:08
IsambardPrinceThey don't care about that. They care about people paying to use them or being threatened with lawyers for using something else, so they don't.Feb 15 02:10

IsambardPrince and other social media companies, Trump Media management said in the filing they do not believe in using traditional metrics such as the number of active users or average revenue per user.

IsambardPrinceIn return, Trump had the DoJ drop the public corruption charges.Feb 15 02:38
MinceRah, yes, "law and order", as the "republicans" imagine itFeb 15 02:39
IsambardPrince"Adams’ promise Thursday to sign an executive order that would permit federal authorities to enter Rikers came just hours after the stunning resignations of six top Department of Justice prosecutors. The prosecutors said they quit rather than carry out a DOJ official’s orders that they dismiss criminal corruption charges filed against the mayor."Feb 15 02:40

IsambardPrinceNew York could file its own corruption charges.Feb 15 02:40
IsambardPrince"In exchange for Adams’ bribery case being dropped by federal prosecutors, the mayor would allow the Trump administration to carry out immigration enforcement actions in New York City, Sassoon wrote in a letter to Bondi."Feb 15 02:41
IsambardPrince"Critics of Bove’s order have warned that by seeking to dismiss the criminal case against Adams without prejudice, meaning that the criminal charges can be refiled at any time, the DOJ is effectively putting the mayor under its thumb.Feb 15 02:42
IsambardPrinceIf the prospect of a revived criminal case against Adams is constantly hanging over the mayor’s head, his ability to act independently, or refuse to do the president’s bidding, would be severely compromised, they say."Feb 15 02:42

IsambardPrinceIt ended up on the doge.gov site.Feb 15 02:53
MinceRi guess if someone lies to them about being male or female, that makes the nazis happyFeb 15 02:53
IsambardPrinceHow does this save money?Feb 15 02:53

MinceRor do they spend money with their genitals?Feb 15 02:54
MinceRremoving the question could have saved money, but i'm sure the nazis wouldn't have liked thatFeb 15 02:54

IsambardPrinceOne trained teachers to “engage in ongoing learning and self-reflection to confront their own biases and racism, and develop asset-based anti-racist mindsets.”"Feb 15 02:59
MinceRand so, once again, the pendulum swings the other wayFeb 15 02:59
MinceRbecause hardly anyone is non-racistFeb 15 02:59

IsambardPrince“We economists don't know much, but we do know how to create a shortage. If you want to create a shortage of tomatoes, for example, just pass a law that retailers can't sell tomatoes for more than two cents per pound. Instantly you'll have a tomato shortage. It's the same with oil or gas.”Feb 15 03:24

MinceRit's not a priority anywayFeb 15 03:28
MinceRstealing ukrainian kids and getting north korean soldiers hooked on pr0n isFeb 15 03:28
IsambardPrinceI guess if there's a Russia 100 years from now they'll still be bothering people using Soviet-era tanks.Feb 15 03:29
IsambardPrinceAnd running a Soviet-era power grid.Feb 15 03:29
MinceRi doubt itFeb 15 03:29

MinceRwell, they won't have future economic woes if they don't have a futureFeb 15 03:31
IsambardPrince"Most troops hail from Russia's most disadvantaged regions — places where the prospect of upfront cash is simply too difficult to ignore."Feb 15 03:31
IsambardPrinceAmerica is like this too.Feb 15 03:31
IsambardPrinceAlmost our entire military is Hispanic/Latino or Black.Feb 15 03:31
IsambardPrinceIt's the only groups that are typically poor enough that the prospect of an enlistedman's pay is appealing.Feb 15 03:32
IsambardPrinceMinceR, I scored 86 on the ASVAB test. But they denied my enlistment. They said I still had tubes in my ears from an ear surgery in the 90s.Feb 15 03:33
IsambardPrinceWhen they saw my test scores on the ASVAB though they were trying to get me to agree to officer training.Feb 15 03:33
MinceRthey don't want cyborg soldiers?Feb 15 03:33
IsambardPrinceUntil the physical happened.Feb 15 03:33
IsambardPrinceThen by the time I had an operation to get the tubes out, the Iraq War had broken out.Feb 15 03:34
IsambardPrinceAnd they were trying to get me to join the National Guard so they could stiff me on pay and VA benefits and put me in a unit where I was more likely to die.Feb 15 03:34
MinceR:>Feb 15 03:34
IsambardPrinceSo that changed my assessment of a military career.Feb 15 03:35
IsambardPrinceI was trying to join the active Army at first and specifically to become a military police officer.Feb 15 03:35
IsambardPrinceI'm glad that didn't happen either.Feb 15 03:36
IsambardPrinceI could have ended up at one of those torture centers guarding prisoners there.Feb 15 03:36
IsambardPrinceThen they wonder why people who survive wars come back and they're not right anymore.Feb 15 03:36
IsambardPrinceMinceR, The recruiters in the US are dirty as hell.Feb 15 03:37
IsambardPrinceThey asked if I had a mental disorder. I said yes, bipolar disorder.Feb 15 03:37
IsambardPrinceHe said, "No you don't. You get in and then you develop one."Feb 15 03:37

MinceR:>Feb 15 03:38
MinceRService Guarantees CitizenshipFeb 15 03:38
IsambardPrinceHe made sure to let me know that as long as you were already in, they couldn't throw you out over that.Feb 15 03:38
IsambardPrinceThey could throw you out for being gay back then, but they had Don't Ask, Don't Tell, Don't Investigate, Don't Pursue.Feb 15 03:39
IsambardPrinceSo like, unless you were being very open about it in a way nobody could miss, then you were fine.Feb 15 03:39
MinceRwhat do they have now?Feb 15 03:39
IsambardPrinceYou can be in the military and openly gay, that's the law.Feb 15 03:40
IsambardPrinceBut there's no law that says Trump can't throw out the trannies.Feb 15 03:40
MinceRstrange, i thought the nazis would be in a hurry to change thatFeb 15 03:40
IsambardPrinceSo he's changed the regulation already to declare that they're insane.Feb 15 03:40

IsambardPrinceThe Senate can't even put them on the schedule until they receive that.Feb 15 04:22
IsambardPrinceThey've shown no indication that they plan to recess and let Trump recess appoint them all. If they did that, the judges would all expire at the end of next year anyway.Feb 15 04:22
IsambardPrinceAnd then they could only be re-appointed if the Senate agreed to recess for more than 3 days again.Feb 15 04:23
IsambardPrinceRecess appointments were not intended to be forever. They were meant to let the President appoint officials until the Senate considers them. Until that happens, the judges appointed that way are not lifetime appointments.Feb 15 04:24

IsambardPrinceBut marriage visas are hard to get, especially from a place like Pakistan. And if you go there and marry and then come back and petition for the visa it can be even worse.Feb 15 05:23
IsambardPrinceBecause then they'll wonder if you did that to get around them.Feb 15 05:24
IsambardPrinceAnd she may even be dealing with the State Department.Feb 15 05:24
IsambardPrinceWhich Trump has turned into more of a mess than USCIS in only a month.Feb 15 05:24
IsambardPrinceSounds like State to me.Feb 15 05:25
IsambardPrinceWhen I was speaking to an immigration lawyer she said "Be glad he's already here. It's almost impossible to get a marriage visa for someone in the Philippines, and the Department of State is always ahead of USCIS when it comes to the nastiest new regulations."Feb 15 05:26
IsambardPrinceDoS doesn't like marriage stuff because the government views immigration benefits for married people in a rather....skeptical lens.Feb 15 05:28
IsambardPrinceIt's so much worse with the DoS because the person you want to marry isn't here, and so their goal becomes like, making sure they don't ever get here.Feb 15 05:28
IsambardPrinceSo they basically need to be in the country on some other sort of visa already before you meet them. Then if you meet them here and get married in a US State, then you go directly to USCIS with it and they have fewer grounds to deny it because they have to recognize what our laws have done.Feb 15 05:30
IsambardPrinceBut if you planned for that to happen and they find out, you're screwed.Feb 15 05:30
IsambardPrinceLike, you know if you plan for them to be here on vacation or something so you can "meet", that's not going to go well.Feb 15 05:31
IsambardPrinceMinceR, Trump signed an executive order ending the use of paper straws in the federal government.Feb 15 05:35
IsambardPrinceI was thinking about writing him to ask if Pam Bondi can file criminal charges against Mondelez executives due to Ritz crackers becoming so full of air pockets instead of cracker that they all break apart and make a mess.Feb 15 05:36

IsambardPrinceMinceR, I posted: "Trump is the mayor of New York City now that he publicly showed that the corruption, bribery, and wire fraud charges against Eric Adams vanished merely for allowing ICE into their jail.Feb 15 06:26
IsambardPrinceInstead of removing Trump's mole, per the Constitution of New York she has the power to suspend his mayoral powers and refer him for impeachment, Governor Kathy Hochul says she'll "wait".Feb 15 06:26
IsambardPrinceFor what, exactly? Trump's Department of Injustice got the charges dropped without prejudice, then Tom Homan finished threatening him publicly that if he wasn't 100% compliant with whatever Trump wants to do in NYC, the charges will come back.Feb 15 06:26

IsambardPrinceTrump wants interest rates to drop, which would finish destroying anyone who saves and has no debt, and it wouldn't save the people who have debt because their rates are either locked in or they have no money and no room to take on more, so it won't help them spend.Feb 15 06:42

IsambardPrinceIt's not just him, it's generally the way his generation is. He was particularly bad even for a Boomer. And they couldn't stand to be near him so what does that tell you?Feb 15 07:35
IsambardPrinceIt's like the difference between someone with a healthy gut using the restroom before you and you go in there and wave your hand and say "Fwah!" and then there's my Dad, you know, the guy who just goes in there with C-Diff or something and drops ass and paints the walls.Feb 15 07:37
IsambardPrinceThat's the difference between a normal Boomer and my father.Feb 15 07:37
IsambardPrinceThere's a few of them that are almost respectable, but that generation mostly had a bunch of racists and narcissists.Feb 15 07:38
IsambardPrinceA racist person is a person who paints with a wide brush and tries to make claims that bad is the default setting for an entire race. This is different than shock humor, or just mild stereotyping.Feb 15 07:40
IsambardPrinceAnd the Boomers are full blown "If it ain't White, it ain't Right.".Feb 15 07:40
IsambardPrinceSo, when I say my Dad is racist, that's different than me making jokes about what Trump might call some mayors in his Rolodex, right?Feb 15 07:41
IsambardPrinceHe turns "Blacks" into a faceless blob. They "stole" his opportunities (he has millions of dollars and three college degrees) from him, using "affirmative action".Feb 15 07:41
IsambardPrinceAnd after they stole his opportunities, you see, they decided to live in the inner city and become prostitutes, and drug dealers, because that's what you do after Harvard with the affirmative action. No it makes no sense, don't even try.Feb 15 07:42

techrights-news"Like many companies, IBM is self-insured with respect to healthcare. That means that all doctors's visits, hospital coverage, etc. are paid directly by the company instead of some insurance firm. However, it also means that the company is sensitive to ongoing healthcare costs. Disabled employees are more likely to cost more in healthcare costs, so that is factored into RA decisions." https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1jkw27we4Feb 15 18:55

nobodynot all of those are btw.; for example W^X policy enforcement clashes with POSIX, bounds-checking is performance critical, etc. etc.Feb 15 21:08

nobodycurrently i am fully forking against gentoo portage, i can't dispose python yet, but i don't want to keep my tree associated to offical gentoo treeFeb 15 21:16
nobodyfor several treasons, beginning with the fact most important builds and versions aren't maintained with gentoo anywayFeb 15 21:17
nobodyand since my profile shrunk down to ~500 ebuilds "only", i rather keep the tens of thousands of others out of my wayFeb 15 21:18
nobodyi want to keep critical base system components in maintenance first and foremost, all of it must be sanitized for clean cross-compilation, tinycc support, static linking, linux2 abi etc.Feb 15 21:18

IsambardPrinceThey try to build this "ideal immigrant" you know, rich, pays a lot of taxes.Feb 15 22:02
IsambardPrinceThey don't really care what's going on in that head of yours if they think you fit that mold.Feb 15 22:02
IsambardPrinceAnd that just doesn't work, because they let in all sorts of vicious criminals and even sex traffickers that can pass Trump's wealth test and pay taxes.Feb 15 22:03

IsambardPrinceMinceR, AmEx is fucking weird. They gave Mandy PopUp Hell (No sign up bonus for you, you bad boy, you've never paid us interest. We've lost our butts on you!")Feb 15 22:22
IsambardPrinceThen they send a 100,000 MR point welcome offer for a gold card that overrides the pop-up a month later.Feb 15 22:22
IsambardPrinceMinceR, I know what probably happened.Feb 15 22:22
IsambardPrinceThe computer probably send his customer file off for manual review somewhere and they said "Hmm, well, if he won't pay us interest, he may pay us the annual fee. We'll take a chance there."Feb 15 22:23
MinceR:>Feb 15 22:23
IsambardPrinceThe offer says in the small print that if you have a habit of closing AmEx cards before the first year, then they might freeze your MR points and seize them.Feb 15 22:23
IsambardPrinceSo don't close any AmEx cards (or downgrade them) before a year or they may do a freeze n' seize.Feb 15 22:24

IsambardPrinceWSJ: Saks warns suppliers they will have to wait for paymentsFeb 15 22:42
IsambardPrinceMinceR, Saks is apparently having trouble.Feb 15 22:42
IsambardPrinceI replied, "Feb 15 22:42
IsambardPrinceWell, when you sell $5,000 Burberry pants in a dead economy and you're facing Trump's National Sales Taxes, and mass unemployment starts with the federal government now operating like a bankrupt tech company, they probably are not well positioned to handle the coming years."Feb 15 22:42
IsambardPrince"A sad realization for everyone, even the ones who decided to leave us mired in this garbage and nonsense is, most aren't prepared, and those in debt certainly are not prepared to handle the next 4 years."Feb 15 22:44
IsambardPrince"What kind of supplier problems do you suppose they'll have, and it's not just Saks but them too, when they're paying 25-40% in new tariffs and still trying to maintain their margins? It's a problem for every retailer from Dollar Tree and Walmart on up to high end retail.Feb 15 22:46

IsambardPrinceMinceR, There's a very good reason why immigration enforcement is breaking down despite Trump's "whole of government" effort.Feb 15 22:53
IsambardPrinceIt's called bottlenecking.Feb 15 22:53
IsambardPrinceYou can go grab a bigger funnel, but if the chokepoint is past the funnel, it doesn't matter.Feb 15 22:53
IsambardPrinceHillbillies who don't understand bottlenecking go and buy K&N air filters for their car.Feb 15 22:54
IsambardPrinceThe company says it improves horsepower by letting more air in.Feb 15 22:54
IsambardPrinceBut the truth is the factory paper filters, which cost only a few bucks, and are disposable, let in nearly all the air the intake can handle, and even if that weren't the case, you have the exhaust pipe, the ccatalytic converter, the muffler.Feb 15 22:55
IsambardPrinceSo Trump is trying to make more arrests the same way people try to make their car go chainsaw motherfucker vroom vroom with a K&N air filter.Feb 15 22:56
IsambardPrinceIt just doesn't work very well.Feb 15 22:56

IsambardPrinceKristi Noem is in no way qualified to lead the Department of Homeland Security. She's a vicious psychopath who murdered a puppy and called it "worthless". She's not the A-team. She was the governor of a horrible flyover state that everyone who lives there wants to leave. It has the highest suicide rate in the country. She was banished from over a fifth of her own State by Indian tribes who told her she'd be arrested if she came there.Feb 15 23:00
IsambardPrinceShe was barely qualified to be the governor of a "small county".Feb 15 23:01
IsambardPrinceTrump hires people so thoroughly incompetent that it's a form of self-sabotage, then he doesn't get his numbers, so he sacks them and replaces them with more idiots. It's like what Putin did. Blame the failures on Shoigu and get rid of Shoigu.Feb 15 23:03
