[07:03]	DaemonFC	He'll figure out from having to unclog the pipes every month what's going on in the foundation.

[07:09]	DaemonFC	When he discovered the pipe was broken on a Monday, and got the guy out there working on it a week later, I can guarantee you this sequence of events did not transpire.
[07:10]	DaemonFC	Now, the part of me that says, "Eh, at least I have an apartment and it's his building so he should be able to fix it right away if he wants to." is the Libertarian in me.

[07:26]	DaemonFC	They can't grasp that initial price minus depreciation = remaining value.

[20:51]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Do you reckon that an M1 Macbook Air would be worth it for Linux?
[20:51]	MinceR	no
[20:51]	DaemonFC	The price has really come down on the Macbook Air.
[20:51]	MinceR	and i wouldn't plan with Linux on the long term
[20:51]	DaemonFC	They're getting to the point where it's comparable to the price of a decently specced Windows laptop.
[20:51]	MinceR	crApple is renowned for their shitty hardware designs
[20:52]	MinceR	including shitty or nonexistent cooling, parts that should never crack cracking, parts that are supposedly one block of aluminium having the glue melted by the cooling fan, etc.
[20:52]	MinceR	internal connectors designed to maximize the effects of water damage or other issues
[20:52]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I'm trying to practice on my own a little bit by speaking to the cats in German.
[20:53]	MinceR	using a touchpad with 2 buttons was bad enough, but crApple has one with no buttons
[20:53]	MinceR	how did the cats like it?
[20:53]	DaemonFC	They are smart, big, and beautiful cats.
[20:53]	DaemonFC	That's about how far I am into this.
[20:53]	MinceR	:)
[20:54]	MinceR	more recently crApple started soldering the SSD on
[20:54]	DaemonFC	But it gives me the chance to actually sound out the words repeatedly so I don't sound retarded when I try to say them. Then I can move on and learn more.
[20:54]	MinceR	and mixing SSD-specific data with boot-specific data on other flash, to make it as much of a pain in the ass to replace a broken SSD as possible
[20:55]	DaemonFC	MinceR: At some point, Apple will stop updating the firmware on the M1 and it will just be whatever it is.
[20:55]	DaemonFC	And then you could wipe the mac OS partition without worrying about firmware updates for the Linux side.
[20:56]	MinceR	or, you could just buy a real computer
[20:56]	DaemonFC	Assuming that Asahi doesn't get all CADT and drop the M1 when Apple does, of course.
[20:56]	MinceR	at a fraction of the price
[20:56]	DaemonFC	MinceR: The M1 is still ARM, and much more powerful than the RPi 5.
[20:56]	DaemonFC	So it is tempting in that regard.
[20:57]	MinceR	well, it's your money and your time
[20:57]	DaemonFC	True.
[20:57]	DaemonFC	Since Walmart is the seller, I could get it at a 15% discount to the $699. Possibly less.
[20:57]	DaemonFC	You can ask for a price match to Best Buy's $650 and then take 15% off that.
[20:58]	MinceR	also, afaict all laptops are a gamble
[20:58]	DaemonFC	Then go through iBotta to buy it and take another 3% off the top line for electronics at Walmart.
[20:58]	DaemonFC	MinceR: So I could likely get the M1 Macbook Air for $533.
[20:59]	DaemonFC	I don't know why I would though.
[20:59]	DaemonFC	It's still $533 down da crappa so that I can check my email on a prettier laptop.

[21:00]	MinceR	amusingly enough, even chinese companies that try to ape their style often do it better

[21:21]	DaemonFC	MinceR: My guess is that one of the reasons the EU really doesn't work so well is that you can't really have a "United States of Europe" when there are so many nationalist movements and people don't even share a common language or sense of identity.
[21:22]	DaemonFC	The notion that they would tear down nationalism and replace it with a sense of European generic identity seems to have not gone over so well.
[21:23]	DaemonFC	They have to pretend they're a democracy that values human rights. So going in like China and saying something like "That's it! No more English in the schools!" isn't possible.
[21:24]	DaemonFC	If they were like China they'd all just get together and decide what language you'd all speak and the national languages would disappear over the next several decades as the native speakers died.
[21:24]	DaemonFC	That's China's plan for English in Hong Kong.
[21:25]	MinceR	well, the people in the EU who aren't as dumb as rocks all speak english
[21:25]	MinceR	but the EU is way too corrupt to work
[21:25]	DaemonFC	I speak English as a vestigial remnant of the United States being created out of former British colonies. Languages are sticky. They're very sticky. It's easier to just pass along the language than it is to replace it.
[21:26]	MinceR	i suspect high-ranking officials are paid by communist china or muscovy to do the idiotic shit they do
[21:26]	MinceR	english is easy to learn, popular and useful
[21:26]	DaemonFC	So here we all are, hundreds of years later, speaking English, and just a handful of words have changed or been added, some slang, some accents and stuff, but not really a huge difference.
[21:26]	DaemonFC	It's more than 99% the same language.
[21:28]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Here is how much the EU's alleged Human Rights court values human rights.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	They said that "it had been a very long time" since the victims of the Nazi Lebensborn system had been raped and beaten by Norway, and since it had attempted to unlawfully deport them all to Germany.
[21:29]	MinceR	which court is that?
[21:29]	DaemonFC	So it no longer mattered and Norway did not owe them any reparations for the abuse they suffered at the hands of the government and the people.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	ECHR I think.
[21:29]	MinceR	the ECHR is a fucking joke, but it's not an EU institution, afaik
[21:30]	DaemonFC	Norway was so embarrassed by the ordeal that it passed legislation giving the surviving victims 8,000 Euro.
[21:30]	DaemonFC	So, they made some minimal payment and went on acting like not much happened.
[21:30]	DaemonFC	The victims of the US internment camps got more than that, and they got it in 1989, not the late 2000s.
[21:31]	DaemonFC	I think they were paid like $50,000 USD in 1989.
[21:31]	DaemonFC	Not enough, but a lot better than what the victims of Norway got.
[21:31]	DaemonFC	And the US government officially apologized and admitted that what it did was wrong and should never have happened.
[21:31]	DaemonFC	Norway didn't.
[21:32]	DaemonFC	The text of the Act passed by the US Congress said that the internment camps were a product of "racism and wartime hysteria".
[21:34]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I wish they'd deport the US citizens that can't pass the Naturalization test.
[21:34]	DaemonFC	We're at the point where they walk into the doctor's office and say "My taint hurts."
[21:35]	psydruid	Everyone learns English nowadays
[21:35]	DaemonFC	My mom was shopping a couple years ago and heard some woman talking to her child and she said "Oh, you bumped your little nosey!"
[21:35]	psydruid	And other languages too
[21:36]	DaemonFC	MinceR: When I was about 5, my Aunt had to rush and tell my mother what I said when we were in a store and I had to use the bathroom. I said, "I need to void my bladder."
[21:36]	psydruid	It's just that Europeans are their own worst enemies
[21:36]	psydruid	Instead of cooperating they like bickering and hating on one another for petty reasons

● Mar 16
[22:10]	DaemonFC	It's clear that the State government has no idea what it's doing with the DMV. It's completely broken down under the new Secretary of State.
[22:11]	DaemonFC	He switched to an appointment system and then 40% of the people who make the appointment never show up.
[22:11]	DaemonFC	Then the website stopped working and apparently they're fine with that.
[22:15]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I bookmarked a specific URL that is almost impossible to find. It lets you type in your DLN and tells you if you can renew or not online and lets you make an appointment if it fails, however the main link to make an appointment just says the method to make an appointment changed and to go back to the main page which just takes you back to that.
[22:16]	DaemonFC	Idiocracy in full swing.
[22:16]	DaemonFC	Welcome to CostCo. I love you.

[22:17]	DaemonFC	MinceR: The mobile site seems to work.
[22:17]	DaemonFC	They ended up having to set up emergency DMVs at sports stadiums for old people.
[22:21]	DaemonFC	MinceR: It's fast and easy to renew your driver's license.
[22:21]	DaemonFC	First you spend three hours getting the desktop site to work.
[22:21]	DaemonFC	Then you spend 4 hours on hold until the 800 number to set up an appointment says everyone is gone for the day.
[22:21]	MinceR	lol
[22:21]	DaemonFC	Then you go to the DMV and are told that they can't give you an appointment themselves.
[22:22]	DaemonFC	Then you go back to the website that says the guy from two years ago is the Secretary of State.
[22:22]	DaemonFC	Then you figure out that the mobile site seems to work but it doesn't come up just by changing your user agent, so you actualy need a phone.
[22:23]	DaemonFC	Then you look at the list of all the available appointments, 40% of which are being booked by people who don't show up, and then you make one at a DMV 200 miles away so that you can travel there and hopefully have all the required documentation so you don't get pulled over and charged with having an expired driver's license.
[22:23]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Very simple. And the Secretary of State that is always photographed with his mouth hanging wide open says this is modern and efficient.
[22:24]	MinceR	which one, the snake man?
[22:24]	DaemonFC	He got the office because he's very qualified. He got funded by a billionaire and it said "Democrat"
[22:24]	DaemonFC	[17:24] <MinceR> which one, the snake man?
[22:24]	DaemonFC	I want Jesse White back.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	You showed up and got a ticket and waited for the Powerball lottery voice to call your name.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	Then you had your license.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	This made too much sense obviously.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	Now we have Mr. "This is Modern!" saying "Don't visit a DMV unless it's an emergency."
[22:26]	MinceR	ah, no, this is a different guy
[22:26]	DaemonFC	Because he's completely fucked it all up and there's no going back because they ripped out the system they had without beta testing the new one.
[22:26]	DaemonFC	So the only DMVs that still work are the ones downstate where they never switched to this.
[22:27]	DaemonFC	MinceR: You know what they should do?
[22:27]	MinceR	abolish all the states
[22:27]	DaemonFC	Fine people $100 if they make an appointment and don't show up.
[22:27]	MinceR	kill all the "leaders"
[22:27]	DaemonFC	And then refuse to renew the license if they don't pay it.
[22:27]	MinceR	kill all the high priests
[22:27]	MinceR	kill everyone with Authoritarian Personality Type
[22:28]	MinceR	see if we can finally have a civilized society.

[22:28]	MinceR	they, like everyone else, focused on the important thing

[22:36]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Is this not insane?
[22:36]	DaemonFC	They seem to be using some Cloudflare like bullshit, only it's letting me in with the VPN but not without it.
[22:37]	DaemonFC	But on my phone I can reach the site.
[22:40]	MinceR	some sites won't even respond to connections from this ISP
[22:40]	MinceR	the "modern" web is fucking broken

[22:41]	DaemonFC	They won't hire anyone who understands how networking works.
[22:41]	DaemonFC	Fucking Kiwi Farms is more reliable than the State DMV.
[22:42]	MinceR	the DMV is run by unmotivated people
[22:43]	MinceR	there's no competition
[22:45]	DaemonFC	Right. That's why when it's my plates I just go to the Currency Exchange and get in and out in five minutes and declare the fee a loss.
[22:45]	DaemonFC	But you can't do that with driver's licenses.
[22:45]	DaemonFC	Has to be the DMV.
[22:45]	DaemonFC	Thank god that one isn't every year.
[22:46]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Waiting in line all morning behind people with quad canes is not worth saving a $5 fee.
[22:46]	DaemonFC	On the plates.
[22:47]	DaemonFC	The currency exchange just makes you sign some shit and then has a connection to the DMV that lets them issue you a new plate, title, or registration.
[22:47]	DaemonFC	If they let them renew your driver's license I would pay $100 more for this to not have to use the DMV.
[22:47]	DaemonFC	Especially now.
[22:48]	DaemonFC	You're going to lose $25 in gasoline, spewing "climate change" everywhere, to get a plastic card at the nearest DMV with an appointment.
[22:48]	DaemonFC	Thanks to the Gimme dats party.
[22:48]	MinceR	was it different under the United With Russia party?
[22:48]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Meanwhile, the other gimme dats are "looking into ways to reduce smog by reducing single occupant vehicle trips".
[22:49]	MinceR	yeah, i thought not.
[22:49]	DaemonFC	While their Secretary of State is making people drive 80 miles to get their driver's license.
[22:49]	DaemonFC	And 40 miles to get their smog test.
[22:49]		*eidolon has quit (Quit: )
[22:49]	DaemonFC	MinceR: You improve air quality by making 10 million people drive up to 40 miles burning gasoline to make sure that they don't have an evaporative emissions leak.
[22:50]	DaemonFC	You know this, right?
[22:51]	DaemonFC	It's like the landlord and money.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	You have to not do a $5,000 inspection so you can dig pits to patch pipes after squandering $2.4 milion dollars on an $800,000 building. And then the water heater goes out, then the washing machines need fixed, then the air conditioners konk out, and the roof is leaking, and then the parking lot needs paved, and you have to pay someone to go out there cleaning all the trash the people living here toss in the lawn.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	And at some point, you make money, theoretically.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	The clean air law says you have to burn millions of gallons of gasoline getting to a smog test station every year to improve the air.
[22:53]	DaemonFC	Obviously, if the Democrats say it, it must be true.
[22:54]	DaemonFC	MinceR: It's like particulates you know.
[22:54]	DaemonFC	You get those down by openly burning trash.
[22:54]	DaemonFC	It works a lot like smog testing the cars.
[22:55]	DaemonFC	MinceR: "Gross Evap Leak" means you lose about a gallon of gas a year to fumes.
[22:55]	DaemonFC	Fixing it costs about $600-700.
[22:55]	DaemonFC	Then you have to burn 4 gallons of gas driving through the city every 2 years to prove you fixed it.
[22:55]	DaemonFC	It costs a lot of money to fix it.
[22:56]	DaemonFC	You lose twice as much gas and cause double the emissions proving you fixed it.
[22:56]	DaemonFC	This is how government laws tend to work.
[22:58]	DaemonFC	MinceR: The air quality would improve if they stopped smog testing.
[22:58]	DaemonFC	It's just another way for Democrats to make life worse.
[22:59]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Also, if the car can't be fixed you can get waivers.
[22:59]	DaemonFC	So what is the point?
● Mar 16
[23:00]	DaemonFC	You can get a 1 year fixme waiver and then you can bring in a letter from your mechanic stating that the repairs would cost more than the car is worth after the year.
[23:02]	DaemonFC	The fixme waiver gives you a year and it's free. You just tell them you're broke and you can't fix it right now and sign a form and bring it to the DMV.
[23:03]	DaemonFC	They'll renew the plate for one more year.
[23:12]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I was in the car's computer clearing codes after I fixed a sensor.
[23:12]	DaemonFC	Going "Klar! Klar! Klar!"

[23:21]	TR Bot	 Americans are feeling hopeful about retirement, according to two new reports
[23:21]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: They're hopeful that Social Security exists at all in ten years.
[23:21]	DaemonFC	They're hopeful that they can work forever and their employer won't fire them, because they're going to have to.
[23:22]	DaemonFC	They're hopeful that their entire social security check can pay for a single can of coffee if Biden gets another term.

[23:31]	TR Bot	did Elon Musk fire Don Lemon and why is Tesla stock falling? | Fortune
[23:31]	DaemonFC	> In January, Tesla said its growth will be notably lower this year, and lately, analysts and investors have just piled on more bad reviews. A wave of analysts are suddenly warning of risks to the Tesla sales outlook as the companys strategy to slash prices is wearing out its use. Evercore, for instance, wrote in a note that the company is likely years away from fully integrating a lower-cost model, calling Tesla a 2027 story. 
[23:31]	DaemonFC	> Meanwhile, Wells Fargo analyst Colin Langan wrote to clients Wednesday that the electric vehicle makers growth in core markets has moderated, downgrading the stock to the equivalent of a sell rating. He expects Teslas sales to be flat this year and fall in 2025. To stick the knife in, he wrote that Tesla is a growth company with no growth.
