[07:13] IsambardPrince Maybe before the weed. [07:13] lord_phanes what year am i lookin for [07:14] IsambardPrince Legal Weed was a major milestone in "society fall down go boom". [07:14] IsambardPrince The government couldn't care less if you die. Or if it's dangerous (it is). [07:14] IsambardPrince Look how many years they profited off cigarettes, alcohol, gambling, (in some places) hookers. [07:15] lord_phanes i can see why the gov would use hookers [07:15] IsambardPrince We've known for years that weed is a bad thing for people with mental illness. [07:15] IsambardPrince It takes what you've got already....and amplifies it. [07:15] lord_phanes the dirty deeds department needs way to blackmail people, and hookers are a great vector to do that [07:15] IsambardPrince So there's the working theory at least. [07:16] *lightbringer (~mincer@freenode/user/lightbringer) has joined #techrights [07:16] lord_phanes you can't get a hooker to cut off their junk and dedicate their life to defaming you, but you can get alot of great pictures for a manilla folder for those up and comings to see the day before a critical decision 10 years later [07:16] IsambardPrince The suicide rate in the US has been going up every year another state legalizes weed. [07:17] IsambardPrince I don't care about transgender people. I think it's a bizarre thing to want to do, but again, that's a personal opinion. [07:17] IsambardPrince I know some bad ones, but I know plenty of BAD people who are not transgender. [07:18] IsambardPrince It's just something I don't understand why you would. [07:18] lord_phanes you're mixing up cause and correlation. correlations are usually indicators but not necessarily causative. it could be the public's increasing casual use of a certain mind altering substance is causing them to notice the framework of their conceptual prisons more easily and increasing the suicide rates in areas where it's in use [07:18] lord_phanes you're in a debtor colony [07:18] IsambardPrince I'm well aware that we're living in Hell and what kind of Hell it is. [07:19] IsambardPrince Few people have much to lose anymore. [07:19] IsambardPrince I told my mother to just ignore the hospital. [07:19] IsambardPrince They can't actually do anything. [07:19] lord_phanes you're fed the illusion that if you work very hard you can get a chance to buy your own farmland and free yourself. its a good story to keep you tilling the master's field. [07:19] lord_phanes "work hard and pay off your debt and then you're done" [07:20] lord_phanes but ya won't be [07:20] lord_phanes you'll just have other debts [07:20] IsambardPrince Right, I always just told the hospital to fuck off and went on my merry way. [07:20] IsambardPrince Who actually tried to pay a hospital. I mean, come on. [07:21] IsambardPrince Now I have Medicaid, and I actually have really good coverage for all this physical therapy. [07:21] IsambardPrince Which is good. [07:21] lord_phanes any psychoactive substance influences where the seams in the renders are, so, naturally, they're a threat to all forms of governance that are not intrinsically libertarian [07:21] IsambardPrince Because I need the PT. [07:22] lord_phanes i butchered that: any psychoactive substance influences *the visibility* of the seams in the renders... [07:22] IsambardPrince lord_phanes: If weed threatened the social order by red pilling everyone, no way it would ever be legal. [07:22] lord_phanes so do some books and philosophical perspectives [07:23] lord_phanes IsambardPrince: well you have to also take into account that we're in a young budding idiocracy. The rules are kind of falling apart because we're forgetting how to govern largely. [07:23] IsambardPrince One way to reach transcendence is to just never have anything. [07:23] lord_phanes no thats just poor [07:23] IsambardPrince My mom's uncle lived in a school bus parked way down an access road in Arkansas. [07:23] IsambardPrince What was anyone ever going to do to him? [07:23] lord_phanes poor people don't get transcendence, just acceptance of being poor [07:24] IsambardPrince I mean, nobody could do anything to him. [07:24] lord_phanes you can't really see beyond the rendered image of your cell until you've gained a little wealth and seen beyond how money works by actually interacting with money at those scales [07:24] IsambardPrince Right, but then people can lose a lot of money. [07:24] lord_phanes yep [07:25] IsambardPrince Look at the problems it creates for some of the people who gain a significant amount. [07:25] lord_phanes im just saying, you aint gonna find nirvana in a mind that's never found wealth [07:25] lord_phanes you have to have done a little poor and you have to have done a little rich [07:25] lord_phanes otherwise you'll just create an adaptive framework of acceptance of mediocrity [07:25] IsambardPrince You don't have to be rich to be generally happy. [07:26] lord_phanes happy? ew. i didn't say anything about "happy". [07:26] IsambardPrince If money made people happy, they wouldn't have to take a picture of their luxury toilet to toilet taunt people. [07:27] lord_phanes they make a pill that can render your cognitive ability permanently disabled but you'll just sit with your eyes rolled into the back of your head until you starve, as happy as you can be. if that's nirvana to you, then you're just a junky with extra steps. [07:27] lord_phanes look way, way beyond "happy" [07:27] IsambardPrince What will money do? [07:28] IsambardPrince Well, next time I get in deep with the hospital, they'd be menacing. [07:28] IsambardPrince So that doesn't help. [07:28] lord_phanes any answer i give you will blind you to seeing it on your own [07:28] lord_phanes and you have to see it on your own [07:28] IsambardPrince Please tell me how working hard to turn them into a threat helps me. [07:28] lord_phanes working hard [07:28] lord_phanes to turn "them" into a "threat" [07:28] lord_phanes what [07:29] lord_phanes are you under some kind of influence [07:29] lord_phanes nobody said that but you [07:29] IsambardPrince Just giving an example. [07:30] lord_phanes of what, of your inability to visualize systematic impacts by visualization of hypothetical modifications to variables and properties in your environment [07:30] lord_phanes i mean [07:31] lord_phanes after just this short conversation, i'd say give up on meaning and happiness and all that and just make sure you rent a place next to an orange tree orchard or something so you don't starve while you work for rent [07:32] lord_phanes not everyone deserves to be wealthy, or happy, or lucky, or anything else really [07:32] lord_phanes of those that do, few of them obtain it, because it's really not got alot to do with justice in human systems [07:33] IsambardPrince Roy was talking earlier about people who are so poor they have to put their condoms in the dishwasher. [07:33] IsambardPrince Ideally, you should work hard enough you don't have to do that, but the hospital isn't a threat. [07:33] lord_phanes that sounds pretty stupid [07:33] IsambardPrince It sounds stupid, but the CDC had to make a statement on it. [07:33] lord_phanes anyway, the poor reproducing at a higher rate is part of the process of selection to continue evolving our species [07:34] lord_phanes resource strain always increases birth rate [07:34] lord_phanes its universal [07:35] lord_phanes selection dont care if you're smart or rich [07:35] *capybara (~capybara@freenode-2ue.6ih.pu7h8v.IP) has joined #techrights [07:35] lord_phanes unfortunately for humans, we've played with the selection criteria through sociopolitical frameworks [07:35] lord_phanes so selection doesn't even really pay attention to fitness [07:36] lord_phanes anymore [07:36] lord_phanes but [07:36] lord_phanes if we reintroduced that, it would be morally objectionable to all observing, including me [07:37] lord_phanes so what will happen is we'll drive our population through the roof as resource pipelines strain and collapse, and eventually start having big nasty global wars again, probably with devestating, historically notable consequences for the human population levels [07:38] lord_phanes and somehow that is superior to just having a once a generation adjustment to the number of kids people are allowed to have, ranging from 0.5 to 3 to be reassessed every 20 years. [07:39] IsambardPrince The House passed a bill to automatically register men with Selective Service. [07:39] lord_phanes yeah [07:39] lord_phanes so what [07:39] IsambardPrince Almost like they're planning something. [07:39] lord_phanes oh yeah, the youngins gonna fight [07:39] IsambardPrince 300 million people in the country....can't find 2-3 million who think it's worth fighting for. [07:40] lord_phanes well, they had a problem with their internal selection [07:40] lord_phanes which impacted recruiting for a long time after afghanistan [07:40] lord_phanes its not that only 2-3 million signed up-- its that only 2-3 million were allowed to [07:40] IsambardPrince Yeah, this entire batch of young people is the most fucked-in-the-head generation ever. [07:41] IsambardPrince Living with their parents. No plan to get out of the house. [07:41] lord_phanes and of those, few qualify for a security clearance because our dq criteria on SF86 was written in the god damned 1950s [07:41] IsambardPrince Think they can transition and become a dolphin or something. [07:42] lord_phanes eh you're muddling two different issues [07:42] IsambardPrince I doubt these people are going to go even if they get drafted. [07:42] IsambardPrince Our next war will probably look like Russia's. [07:42] lord_phanes a large scale ground fighting war and the gender bender phenomenon are largely mutually exclusive events [07:43] lord_phanes that sounds insensitive, but, a high casualty war like WWII would drop trans identification rates to near-zero [07:44] lord_phanes if its one of those drone wars where we pay kids to drive remote control drones to kill brown families in their homes in gaza it wont have that impact though [07:45] IsambardPrince That's the fun kind of war. [07:45] IsambardPrince Little risk. [07:45] IsambardPrince Just "Bye fuckers!" [07:45] IsambardPrince Boom. [07:45] lord_phanes no those escalate to nuclear armeggeddon between major powers [07:46] IsambardPrince Who (that matters) is going to go to war because of some camel jockeys who were dumb enough to poke the bear? [07:47] lord_phanes i.e. a russia/china/brics coalition vs nato/us will, if not restricted entirely to ground fighting in strategic areas, mostly through proxies, will potentially result in the annhilation of all life on earth [07:47] IsambardPrince Cool. [07:47] lord_phanes and anything that survived wouldn't live well, or for very long [07:48] IsambardPrince Yeah. [07:48] lord_phanes in any case, we're on the losing end of "cold war II" unless something dramatic shifts in the dynamics at play [07:48] IsambardPrince My Podiatrist asked me how close we are to something Russia might target in a nuclear war. [07:49] IsambardPrince I said, "Like almost everyone, so close you won't notice." [07:49] lord_phanes i predict our health care, insurance and pretty much everything but the technology sector will completely fail, along with key infrastructure that maintains the current standard of living for most americans [07:50] lord_phanes well, along the lines of "how close are you", its really a moot point -- the newer nukes are many thousands of times the size of what we think of when we say "nukes". the big guns are so big that it doesn't take a series of launches. it takes one. [07:51] lord_phanes and then shit just can't live there for a few thousand years without getting uncontrollable cancers [07:54] lord_phanes no, you won't see a sky filled with missiles while our brave men and women in uniform shoot many down as we can -- it'd be one oddly silent burst of light on the horizon, and a few minutes later an invisible kick to the chest, and then as your eyes burst and your hair melts into you you'll find shelter. and then you'll think you're ok but just got burned really badly for a bit and seek treatment. [07:54] lord_phanes you'll find some, and get wrapped up and even start to think you are getting better. then you'll melt inside and swell up into a blister of hellish pain, too crippled to beg for the doctor to end it [07:54] lord_phanes thats if you survive the blast at all [07:55] lord_phanes the doctors treating you will be in teh same boat, if you're lucky enough to have that kind of aid [07:55] lord_phanes death by radiation is some of the most horrific shit you'll ever see is what im getting at [07:56] lord_phanes so go get that job by the power company so you can be close enough to not go through that if it happens [07:58] lord_phanes oh sweet my log downloads are done ● Jun 16 [08:02] lord_phanes oh nice my NDA at Freenode is expired [08:02] lord_phanes as of five days ago [08:03] lord_phanes they had an opportunity to renew so i have zero obligations currently on that topic [08:18] IsambardPrince I don't really care if we have a nuclear war. [08:18] IsambardPrince It would finally all be over. [08:18] IsambardPrince The pain I'm in every day would be over. My family is basically all gone. I have no friends. No social circle. Nothing much left, actually. [08:19] IsambardPrince If they start a nuclear war, I hope one of the bombs lands right on top of me. [08:20] IsambardPrince There's a real possibility of a nuclear exchange eventually. [08:20] IsambardPrince They lie to the public about how close we get.

[08:29] IsambardPrince Still depressed. [08:29] IsambardPrince Still can't fix his shitty family. [08:30] IsambardPrince Still popped out a boy who became a tranny and disowned their father. [08:32] lord_phanes money buys it, he just doesn't know how [08:33] IsambardPrince I can't imagine money making me better [08:33] IsambardPrince I'd probably buy a nice car, a house, then what? [08:33] IsambardPrince Same brain. I'd still be depressed. [08:34] IsambardPrince Where does unlimited money get me then, for the sake of argument, if I had unlimited money? [08:34] IsambardPrince In lots of trouble probably. [08:34] IsambardPrince If anyone finds out you have money, they all come out of the woodwork wanting to be your friend. [08:34] IsambardPrince All the gold diggers come out. [08:34] IsambardPrince It becomes impossible to know who your friends and enemies are. [08:35] lord_phanes you have to be worthy for it to make those kinds of differences [08:35] IsambardPrince People would probably even be nice to me if they thought it would benefit themselves somehow, because that's how people are. [08:35] lord_phanes ya know what you do when you get unlimited resources [08:35] lord_phanes you buy a company like mansanto and you dismantle it and pay lobbyists to have all variations of it outlawed [08:36] IsambardPrince Tell your boss to fuck himself and leave and never work again? [08:36] IsambardPrince I have the t-shirt. [08:36] IsambardPrince And I'm not rich. [08:36] IsambardPrince I came to this conclusion. [08:37] IsambardPrince The harder I worked for money, I still had nothing, really. [08:37] IsambardPrince I had a couple relatively good years, for me. [08:38] IsambardPrince What did it attract? Some bum that I was too stupid to throw out of my house that wouldn't even have sex with me and spent all of his money on himself and caused arguments. [08:38] IsambardPrince That's what not wanting to be alone gets you. It gets you an Ellis. [08:38] lord_phanes yeah you thought you could become rich by working in the field on the farm to pay your debt and be free instead of running away and starting your own farm [08:39] lord_phanes common mistake really [08:39] lord_phanes ive made it myself [08:39] IsambardPrince Well, lesson one, don't let anyone live off you, ever.

[21:44] IsambardPrince " In documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Administration, Waymo described the issue is as an [i]nsufficient ability to avoid pole or pole-like permanent objects within the drivable surface [which] may result in an increased risk of a collision. " [21:44] IsambardPrince So basically all this tech and the car has the driving abilities of my mother? [21:45] IsambardPrince Backing up over curbs. [21:45] IsambardPrince Taking off dragging the muffler everywhere for three days until the car shop can get it in to weld it. [21:45] IsambardPrince Because "I had to go to church and to get MOAR WATER from Walmart." [21:46] IsambardPrince MinceR: ^ [21:47] IsambardPrince I told her about microplastics.

[21:49] IsambardPrince MARISOL is one of these people. Can't drink water from the tap so she gets the microplastics in her blood and internal organs instead from bottled crap. [21:49] IsambardPrince They just bottle someone else's tap water and it leeches microplastics and petrochemicals. [21:49] IsambardPrince "Ice Mountain....so crisp....so refreshing." [21:53] IsambardPrince schestowitz-pi2: I'm not sure Outreachy is specifically damaging to Free Software. [21:54] IsambardPrince They dole out money, I think a lot of it is IBM money, to people who appear to string them along and not do much and just get like, ~$7,000 grants. [21:54] IsambardPrince So basically what you have to do is write up this whole piece about how you're marginalized in some way, then ask for a grant, and then do the bare minimum to shuffle around and keep the grant money coming. [21:55] IsambardPrince Gay people are literally as persecuted, historically, as persecuted as the Jews, maybe even worse. [21:56] IsambardPrince When the Holocaust camps were liberated by the Soviets, US, UK, French, and Germany partitioned, the Allies did not re-arrest the Jews and send them to prison, or just keep them in the Holocaust camp and re-name the camp. [21:56] IsambardPrince Gay people got that treatment. [21:56] IsambardPrince Many of them had to stay in the concentration camps for years under a new name. [21:57] IsambardPrince Along with everyone else Stalin didn't want. The people who suffer greatly under Communism tend to be, ironically, the ones who would be best positioned to help the society in some way, were they simply freed and assigned a function. [21:57] IsambardPrince This is why every Communist country has a brain drain. [21:58] IsambardPrince They make life so terrible for educated people, who don't want to be there, that they will flee, even if the odds of being shot in the back for trying to escape are 50% or more. [21:58] *eidolon has quit (Quit: ) [21:59] IsambardPrince In theory, I'd support Communism or Socialism, if it in fact led to something better. But every country with a Communist or Socialist uprising just affirms that "When you overthrow the government, you usually get something as bad or worse." because nature abhors a vacuum. [21:59] IsambardPrince And victory will go to the people who aren't particular about how they obtain power over the governed. [21:59] MinceR IsambardPrince: lol [21:59] MinceR good news, it doesn't have a muffler ● Jun 16 [22:00] IsambardPrince MinceR: After dragging it around for three days, the muffler was still there.

[22:00] IsambardPrince They said that was the worst model year for the Impala, ever. [22:00] IsambardPrince And this car has over 300,000 miles on it. [22:00] IsambardPrince And it still runs fine and doesn't consume any oil. [22:01] IsambardPrince The insanity is the book value is maybe $400-500 at this point. [22:01] IsambardPrince But....you could jump in it and drive across the country and be pretty sure it would make it. [22:02] IsambardPrince [16:00] afaik they're BEV-s [22:02] IsambardPrince Yeah, CARB. [22:02] IsambardPrince The most infamous "engineering by politicians who have no background in it" example in America. [22:03] IsambardPrince Engineering by politicians never works right, but at least when the Communists did it they WANTED a car that was simple and did its job. [22:03] IsambardPrince I'd rather drive a Trabant than a Tesla. [22:04] IsambardPrince The Trabant was an East German car. Apparently, when the wall came down people just walked off and abandoned them. [22:04] IsambardPrince However.... [22:04] IsambardPrince The car did at least work. [22:05] IsambardPrince Today we have people paying $70,000-$100,000 USD for a Tesla that starts malfunctioning and rusting and losing pieces as soon as you drive it off the lot. [22:06] IsambardPrince Elon Musk is behind a car brand that is impossibly expensive to actually own, nearly impossible to service, and is out of commission so much it serves practically no use. Something that only ever costs money and acts as a vanity product. [22:06] IsambardPrince The Trabant was shit, built around a motorcycle-type engine, but at least they worked and were cheap.

[22:18] IsambardPrince > I wonder where all the bullshit ads for the military and "America's Army" came from then. [22:18] IsambardPrince > None of the ads at the movie theater show you what being pinned down by enemy fire with your friend bleeding out all over you looks like. [22:18] IsambardPrince > None of the ads shows what happens to you if you live through that, get back to the US, and end up with PTSD, or hobbling around on an artificial leg or something. [22:18] IsambardPrince > Paul Verhoeven's take on Starship Troopers, complete with all of the fascist symbology, and the "breadcrumbs" like all of the Citizen/Veterans missing legs and arms and getting around in wheelchairs, and still yammering on about patriotism, was brilliant.

[22:19] IsambardPrince MinceR: He's has some good ones, he's had some bad ones. [22:19] IsambardPrince I didn't like Showgirls at all. [22:20] IsambardPrince The movie didn't really have a plot. It was basically an exercise in how much smut they could possibly get into a movie theater in 1995. [22:20] IsambardPrince No, I'm not against nudity in a movie, or anything like that. It's just that I felt there should be some kind of plot or storyline. [22:21] IsambardPrince A lot of the sex and nudity that ended up in US movies was just sort of thrown in carelessly so they could say the movie was R or NC-17 and attract people with controversy. [22:22] IsambardPrince Blockbuster edited out the part of Bad Lieutenant where he was jerking off in front of the (implied) 16 or 17 year old girls he pulled over. [22:22] IsambardPrince But the scene actually meant something to the movie. [22:22] IsambardPrince The guy was irredeemable. There was nothing good about him. He wasn't even an anti-hero. [22:23] *jacobk (~quassel@haujs6zcuukhy.irc) has joined #techrights [22:23] IsambardPrince He was just a dirty cop badly addicted to drugs, having an emotional breakdown, deeply in debt to the mafia (sports betting), and then he pulls over some girls and masturbates in front of them while making them do lewd things. [22:23] IsambardPrince His vices will all get him killed at some point. [22:24] IsambardPrince In the end, the mafia gets him first. [22:24] IsambardPrince After he finds the guys that raped the nun and gives them $30,000 and a bus ticket out of New York, because the nun has internalized the abuse and refuses to do anything about it. [22:25] IsambardPrince The movie isn't just about the dirty cop, it was about a failing society that produced him, allowed him to continue, and was rotting all around him. [22:28] IsambardPrince The society depicted in this movie was showing New York City in 1992. [22:28] IsambardPrince But it's spread all over the country and has become an accepted fact of life now. [22:29] IsambardPrince I would say that the movie is more relevant now. [22:29] IsambardPrince The big cities have always been trash, but it's spread outward. [22:30] IsambardPrince The reason that movies like this don't tend to sit well with people is because they're already living in it, and so the movie is not an escape. Most people only want to go see Disney shit because there's psychiatrists that sit around and develop a formula of happy happy shit. [22:32] IsambardPrince When we got to the scene where he pulls the girls over and jerks off in front of them, the way he was acting I figured the scene would have been a lot worse than that.

[22:58] IsambardPrince The politicians write laws to make sure your vote hardly matters. (Only three counties in the US ultimately determined the 2020 presidential election.) [22:59] IsambardPrince Affirmative Action is racist. [22:59] IsambardPrince Reversing Roe doesn't really affect me, and the number of abortions has been going up anyway despite Dobbs. ● Jun 16 [23:00] IsambardPrince The Democrats would really love to appoint the Supreme Court, but that wouldn't mean it would work for us. [23:00] IsambardPrince It just means we'd end up more like Canada, where the government disarms its citizens so it truly has nothing to fear when it fails to represent them. [23:01] IsambardPrince We live in a country where some people have actually shot or shot at members of Congress. Fairly recently. [23:01] IsambardPrince They do want to disarm the public so they have absolutely nothing to fear. [23:01] IsambardPrince They've already made life pretty miserable, to the point where nobody was shooting at THEM until the last decade or so. [23:01] IsambardPrince And now even the Republicans pass gun control laws. [23:03] IsambardPrince If you track "failing country" by "When did people start shooting at the politicians, in earnest." then it would have been Gabby Giffords and the Republicans at the baseball game and a couple of others. [23:03] IsambardPrince All within the last 10 years or so. [23:04] IsambardPrince Instead of fixing the problem so nobody wants to shoot them, they immediately go to work beefing up security around themselves and passing disarmament laws.

[23:11] IsambardPrince Every few years, the federal government exceeds its borrowing limit and they start moving money around to pay bills until Congress gets together to raise the debt limit. [23:11] IsambardPrince It eventually ends with them agreeing to spend more money on everything than they would have had there been no debt ceiling.

[23:15] IsambardPrince Most of the people the Supreme Court/Republicans targeted with Dobbs live in major cities. [23:15] IsambardPrince Most major cities have a bus terminal, and something like Megabus. [23:16] IsambardPrince Megabus is cheap and goes between other major cities, and it attracts mostly minorities who don't have a lot of money for travel. [23:16] IsambardPrince Sadly, bus travel is not what it was 20 years ago. [23:16] *psydroid2 (~psydroid@j9gt2haw74jrk.irc) has joined #techrights [23:17] IsambardPrince I used to go all over the place on Greyhound. It was not that expensive. Less than buying gas. Sometimes you had to wait in a terminal for a while. It was better than flying because I don't agree to go through TSA. [23:18] IsambardPrince https://wgntv.com/news/national/military-recruitment-shortfall-should-us-bring-back-the-draft/ [23:18] TR Bot Amid military recruitment shortfall, could the draft be an answer? [23:18] IsambardPrince 23% of Americans 17 to 24 are physically and mentally fit for military service. [23:18] IsambardPrince 54% of the American public has a negative view of the military. [23:18] IsambardPrince This week, the House passed a bill automatically registering men for the draft. [23:19] IsambardPrince Officials at the Department of Defense say recruiting challenges are complex and multi-faceted. [23:19] IsambardPrince ChatGPT tends to use "complex and multi-faceted" a lot when it has something it can't explain. [23:20] IsambardPrince "Recruitment is particularly challenging for Generation Z, people born between 1997 and 2012. Videos discouraging joining the military have been swirling on TikTok." [23:20] IsambardPrince LOL [23:21] IsambardPrince Go ahead, take day off! -Xi [23:22] IsambardPrince "Former President Donald Trump shot down the ridiculous idea that he could push for mandatory military service if he wins reelection this year and slammed a Washington Post article on the issue as an effort to damage him with voters." [23:23] IsambardPrince You know, with Biden in office stirring the shit with Russia and in the Middle East, a draft is much more likely under Biden. [23:23] IsambardPrince Leaving Europe to deal with Putin, if they are able to, is the best solution. [23:23] IsambardPrince If they can't resist him because they've grown too fat and lazy, living on welfare, than they deserve to be colonized. [23:25] IsambardPrince "Most nations in the world have some form of military. However, the methods used to fill the ranks of those armed forces vary from one country to the next." [23:25] IsambardPrince Technically, the Catholic Church has a military, just not a large one. [23:27] IsambardPrince MinceR: Don't you miss when we didn't have air quality action days, and people drank hose water and ate at Taco Bell, and our life expectancy was 4 years higher than it is now? Well, you're not an American of course, but..... [23:27] IsambardPrince I would still like to invite you to join me for dinner, at Taco Bell. [23:27] IsambardPrince Does Orbanistan even have Taco Bell? [23:28] IsambardPrince There was this other one when I was a kid, called Taco Grande. [23:28] IsambardPrince I don't ever see those anymore. [23:29] IsambardPrince Maybe they went out of business. [23:30] IsambardPrince The restaurant business is very cyclical and exposed to fluctuations in the economy. [23:30] IsambardPrince It's dangerous to franchise, which is why McDonald's Corporation is 90% franchise-owned. [23:30] IsambardPrince It's like this. [23:30] IsambardPrince When you're the landlord, you don't care how many burgers and fries get sold. [23:31] IsambardPrince Because they still have to pay the rent somehow. [23:42] MinceR 17 002744 < IsambardPrince> Does Orbanistan even have Taco Bell? [23:42] MinceR afaik there's no Taco Bell in europe [23:43] MinceR which is why they replaced it with Pizza Hut in Demolition Man [23:43] MinceR (but you could still see the Taco Bell logos on the windows of the restaurant) [23:45] IsambardPrince That seems sort of clumsy. [23:45] IsambardPrince you could probably grab the "copycat taco bell" recipes. [23:45] MinceR :) [23:46] IsambardPrince I made air fryer crunchwraps one day. It came out better than taco bell, unsurprisingly. [23:46] IsambardPrince Their big thing is it's cheap, it's not terrible, and you get quite a bit of it. [23:46] IsambardPrince It's stoner food. [23:46] IsambardPrince MinceR: Stay away from the iced tea vat. [23:46] IsambardPrince :P [23:47] IsambardPrince They get this "iced tea in a bag" stuff that says Lipton on it. [23:47] IsambardPrince I don't know why, but it tastes really gross. Probably just minimum wage workers leaving the bag in until it's empty. [23:48] IsambardPrince I've seen hotels that do "coffee in a bag", like it's concentrated coffee and it mixes it with hot water when you press the button. [23:48] IsambardPrince Some of those are decent. [23:51] IsambardPrince MinceR: So right off the heels of "Nothing happens if you don't file your income taxes." is "Don't wear sunblock, because the sunblock causes cancer!" TikTok is great. [23:51] IsambardPrince :P [23:53] IsambardPrince I'm married to someone who gets shitty life advice from TikTok and then says "You know that person on TikTok says nothing happens if you don't file your taxes." to wit, "Yeah, for a bout 5-6 years until the IRS files them all at once, doesn't give you any of the credits or deductions you could have used, and sends you a bill with fines and interest." [23:53] IsambardPrince Probably nothing happens...immediately. [23:54] IsambardPrince They wait and hit you with it all at once, as soon as it's the worst outcome for you." [23:54] IsambardPrince They're patient. [23:58] MinceR tiktok is great for people who trust the communist party of china
