| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR], I'm glad I'm finally learning how to use Lynx. | Jul 16 00:32 |
| schestowitz[TR] | ooh, I likle this new CSS | Jul 16 00:32 |
| DaemonFC | This is actually a huge improvement when it works. | Jul 16 00:32 |
| schestowitz[TR] | some advanced css generations can make you a nice site without a single image | Jul 16 00:32 |
| DaemonFC | Maybe I can toss Firefox to the side for some shitty banks and other horribleness. | Jul 16 00:32 |
| DaemonFC | Just use Lynx most of the time. | Jul 16 00:32 |
| schestowitz[TR] | DaemonFC: it's good when you value informatioln | Jul 16 00:32 |
| DaemonFC | Lynx has tabs because my GNOME Terminal has tabs. | Jul 16 00:32 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jul 16 00:32 |
| schestowitz[TR] | not some boobs and dicks in sidebars | Jul 16 00:32 |
| schestowitz[TR] | which distract from news | Jul 16 00:33 |
| schestowitz[TR] | lagrange with newswaffle is OK | Jul 16 00:33 |
| DaemonFC | Since it doesn't support JavaScript and most things I sign into are broken, I can have Lynx ignore cookies. | Jul 16 00:33 |
| schestowitz[TR] | you can also configure it to show images as you scroll down | Jul 16 00:33 |
| DaemonFC | Keep Firefox around for some unpleasantness. | Jul 16 00:33 |
| schestowitz[TR] | there's an option for that | Jul 16 00:33 |
| DaemonFC | You know, they could extend Lynx to handle Gemini too. | Jul 16 00:33 |
| DaemonFC | It is a Gopher browser already. | Jul 16 00:33 |
| schestowitz[TR] | newewaffle still needs to retreive and scam/process wab pages | Jul 16 00:34 |

| SomeH4x0r | if they don't want to read it, so be it | Jul 16 00:35 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR], If I could figure out how to get Lynx to open Magnets. | Jul 16 00:35 |
| schestowitz[TR] | SomeH4x0r: right | Jul 16 00:35 |
| schestowitz[TR] | while the browser still let you cop out | Jul 16 00:35 |
| schestowitz[TR] | something like Tor is compeomised | Jul 16 00:36 |
| schestowitz[TR] | Tor pushing Microsoft | Jul 16 00:36 |
| schestowitz[TR] | aka DDG | Jul 16 00:36 |
| SomeH4x0r | they will push HSTS eventually | Jul 16 00:36 |

| schestowitz | gemini://midnight.pub/posts/1077 | Jul 16 01:20 |
| schestowitz | published hours ago. | Jul 16 01:20 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | Reddit, I'm convinced, is one of the worst websites ever created, and for the past three years of pure Hell it has been used by these people in order to blackmail me, harass me, rile up mobs against me, and threaten my life and family. Reddit does not only allow this harassment to continue, they endorse it, banning anyone who goes against the narrative these bad actors wish to present. It is a farce, a kangaroo court, a crime against everything the | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | Internet should represent. | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | Reddit is doing this, I'm sure, to save face, as they are currently one of the most disliked websites of all time. They are known for having hosted vile and reprehensible material on their website throughout much of the early 2010s- potentially illegal material, even- all under the guise of "free speech," and now in the later 2010s and early 2020s have done a complete 180 to save face and now ban and censor the least offensive content imaginable | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | without a second thought or any form of justification. I arrived on the site at an interesting period in its history- during the transitional phase, when it went from a no-holds-barred anarchist chaos arena to an authoritarian police state. As such, I was able to witness, firsthand, in a microcosm, the transformation of the Internet. | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | I predicted, in 2019, that the public's opinion toward the site would soon shift and Reddit would be viewed for what it has become- an outright circus. At the time, the general public's opinion was mostly positive. However, as the years went on, my prediction came to fruition. Reddit became embroiled in multiple scandals which would put the follies of Facebook to shame- for instance, the debacle during which they knowingly hired a sex offender and | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | then banned anyone who dared post about it. They are now one of the most censorship-heavy websites on the Internet, deleting a huge fraction of all content submitted. Programmers have wasted hours trying to create facsimiles of the website without censorship, such as "Removeddit," all to no avail. | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | The case of Reddit is a good example of just how quickly negativity can spread. What exists on Reddit today is a false sort of toxic positivity to counteract the outright negativity which persists in groups such as the one which has targeted me. Reddit has become nothing more than 90% pictures of adorable cats with no substance and 10% hate groups which masquerade as righteous causes while spewing ableist and racist rhetoric. The people who attack | Jul 16 01:21 |
| schestowitz | me do so with no checks, no balances, no restraint, and they are, for no reason whatsoever, hellbent on seeing my failure, to a compulsive, even sociopathic, degree. | Jul 16 01:21 |

| DaemonFC | If you didn't pay some stupid amount of money for it, what good is it? | Jul 16 05:18 |
| DaemonFC | I asked MARISOL if she tried a Chromebook and she told me no but they must not be any good if they sell for a low price. | Jul 16 05:18 |
| DaemonFC | There's a lot of "THOSE" types floating around this place. | Jul 16 05:18 |
| DaemonFC | You can sell people anything if you make the price high. As odd as it sounds, the more they got ripped off for it, the happier they say they are. | Jul 16 05:19 |
| DaemonFC | The cars that have the worst reliability ratings are the most expensive, and most of the people who bought one say they're very happy with it and will get another one someday. | Jul 16 05:19 |
| DaemonFC | How do you sell a $50,000 Rolex? | Jul 16 05:20 |
| DaemonFC | It must be good. If it wasn't good it wouldn't be $50,000. | Jul 16 05:20 |
| DaemonFC | People associate high prices with quality, whether it's true or not. | Jul 16 05:20 |
| DaemonFC | If you lower the price, you run the danger of no longer being "perceived" to be a luxury item and watching your customers storm out. | Jul 16 05:21 |
| DaemonFC | But what's ridiculous is that poor people buy "luxury" brands. I mean, you see trash walking around with iPhones in one hand and Starbucks in the other. | Jul 16 05:21 |
| DaemonFC | They "perceive" it to be high quality because it's expensive. | Jul 16 05:21 |
| DaemonFC | I can make a mean cup of auto drip, you know. | Jul 16 05:22 |

| techrights-news | Advertising Is Psychological Warfare gemini://the-brannons.com/psychological-warfare/ | Jul 16 06:30 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR], It was pretty widespread to make pirate copies of movies back in the 90s. Especially ones you couldn't easily get in the US because they weren't released here. | Jul 16 06:42 |
| DaemonFC | When we went to the Inconjunction Science Fiction Convention in Indianapolis each year, it wasn't uncommon to see movies for sale that the guy had ran off copies off with his home VCR. Things like that. | Jul 16 06:42 |
| DaemonFC | There was a guy named Steve Jackson who had a small video game company that kept opening up a booth there. His company made board games too. | Jul 16 06:43 |
| DaemonFC | He made a decent living off of it, I think. I enjoyed the games he had ported to DOS and the Commodore. | Jul 16 06:43 |
| DaemonFC | I had both systems at one point. | Jul 16 06:44 |
| DaemonFC | The Commodore should have continued, I think. It was clearly the best home computer of the 1980s in the US market at least. In that it was actually quite useful and capable for the price point that it sold for. | Jul 16 06:45 |
| DaemonFC | I never had an Amiga though. Just the C64. | Jul 16 06:45 |
| DaemonFC | The C64 was getting pretty old by the time dad gave it to me and got himself a PC. | Jul 16 06:45 |
| DaemonFC | The interesting thing about the Commodore was how much the programmers managed to do with it for as limited as the hardware was. | Jul 16 06:46 |
| DaemonFC | The system didn't really claim a lot of resources for itself. Didn't get in the way of the program you were running. | Jul 16 06:46 |
| DaemonFC | What we really need is a renascence of efficient operating system software. By modern standards, I was managing to do this with GNU/Linux up to about 8 years ago. | Jul 16 06:47 |
| DaemonFC | Long after anyone would have given up on that 2004 budget Compaq I was still using GNU/Linux on it. A distribution that not only lived in 1 GB of RAM but did so comfortably. | Jul 16 06:48 |
| DaemonFC | With a single core processor, barely over 1 Ghz. Not even a good one in 2004. | Jul 16 06:49 |
| DaemonFC | The reason it managed so well was the OS got the hell out of the way so there was actually something left to run programs with. | Jul 16 06:49 |
| DaemonFC | When I bought this computer, I was running into low memory situations on Windows 10 just running Firefox. | Jul 16 06:50 |
| DaemonFC | I mean, it's horrible. I don't know how people don't see it. If you don't care about anything else, why not care that it's a real pig. | Jul 16 06:51 |
| DaemonFC | How do you guzzle 16 GB of RAM running a stupid Web browser and doing not much else? | Jul 16 06:51 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR], I was talking to mom about in 1963, my great-grandmother still didn't have an electric refrigerator. | Jul 16 06:57 |

| DaemonFC | I got to thinking, 1963 wasn't like, a long long LONG time before I was born. Only like 21 years. | Jul 16 06:59 |
| DaemonFC | And getting an electric refrigerator meant you were moving up in the world, apparently, even then. | Jul 16 06:59 |
| DaemonFC | She said my grandparents bought new Mercury in the 1950s. It didn't come standard with air conditioning or a heater. If you wanted either one, you had to pay extra and have someone install it for you. A Mercury has always been a pretty nice brand of car, at least until Ford stopped making them. | Jul 16 07:01 |
| britney | DaemonFC, openbsd is pretty efficient, the installer is 600MB and you can run it on really old hardware | Jul 16 07:01 |
| britney | fvwm is also quite lightweight | Jul 16 07:01 |
| DaemonFC | I was looking at the sales pitch for a new Chevy. The funny part is the dealer Web site that praises the CVT transmissions. | Jul 16 07:01 |
| DaemonFC | Which are the ones that fail every 35,000 miles or so and cost more than the whole damned car is worth to replace once the warranty ends. | Jul 16 07:02 |
| DaemonFC | You basically have to buy a factory extended warranty on one of these things if you go that route, because otherwise it's going to start eating transmissions while you're still making payments. | Jul 16 07:03 |
| DaemonFC | I don't know how GM is going to make it much longer unless we're forced to bail them out again. | Jul 16 07:03 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR], I've had GMs and Fords. I can tell you that at least with the 90s and 2000s models, the Fords tend to have fewer serious problems as they age. But GM can make decent stuff if they feel like it. | Jul 16 07:09 |
| DaemonFC | The problem tends to happen when they make downmarket versions of their powertrains to hit a price point. | Jul 16 07:09 |
| DaemonFC | My aunt was buying a new Chevy every 2 years, and then bragging about it. | Jul 16 07:09 |
| DaemonFC | She wasn't trading them in because she wanted to. She was buying the cheapest model that didn't have any options. | Jul 16 07:10 |
| DaemonFC | Then when the transmission wasn't shifting right or it would rain and flood the car and the dealer couldn't fix it right, they'd trade it right back in. | Jul 16 07:10 |

| DaemonFC | GM isn't a good investment right now. They're not in a good place. I've been to the Chevy dealer and they can't get any inventory. | Jul 16 07:13 |
| DaemonFC | The Buick dealer is well stocked though. | Jul 16 07:13 |
| DaemonFC | I see that going on a lot. Chevy lot, 10% full, Buick lot, packed. | Jul 16 07:14 |
| DaemonFC | They're prioritizing Buick. I would. They sell for more money. | Jul 16 07:14 |
| DaemonFC | If I was them I'd probably just give up on Chevy and close down the brand and just do Buick, GMC, and Cadillac. | Jul 16 07:15 |
| DaemonFC | These supply chain issues aren't going to resolve with the computer chips and stuff for a while. | Jul 16 07:17 |
| DaemonFC | With Cadillac and Buick going all electric, they're not going to need compliance cars they don't want to build to get their CAFE fines down. | Jul 16 07:18 |

| matey | but it became a sort of running theme in irc for MONTHS | Jul 16 11:05 |
| schestowitz[TR] | I was told 30 mins ago | Jul 16 11:05 |
| matey | anytime someone mentioned me, i was angry at dt (nope, didnt give two shits) | Jul 16 11:05 |
| matey | never expressed anger at him | Jul 16 11:05 |
| matey | simply stopped watching him on yt | Jul 16 11:05 |
| mjg59_ | And 30 minutes ago you decided to spend time complaining about Linus seeing a therapist | Jul 16 11:05 |
| matey | no angry letters, no angry articles, not even an angry explanation | Jul 16 11:05 |
| matey | complaining about Linus seeing a therapist <- allegedly he was "sent" to one, like in stalinist russia | Jul 16 11:06 |
| mjg59_ | Linus is notable for having no agency whatsoever | Jul 16 11:06 |
| mjg59_ | I chatted to Linus in 2019 | Jul 16 11:06 |
| mjg59_ | After all this happened | Jul 16 11:06 |
| mjg59_ | (In person, at LCA in Christchurch) | Jul 16 11:06 |
| matey | still your word against roys | Jul 16 11:07 |
| matey | /me gets a crystal ball out | Jul 16 11:07 |
| mjg59_ | I said that I really appreciated the work he was doing, and that I knew it was hard, and that I'd been critical of him in the past but he was doing more than I could legitimately have asked him to do | Jul 16 11:07 |
| mjg59_ | And he told me that he'd been pretty sure he was right up until the point where he realised that most of the people who were taking his side were MRAs or far-right people | Jul 16 11:08 |
| matey | technically there should be mras | Jul 16 11:08 |
| mjg59_ | And then he realised that if those were the people defending him, then maybe he was wrong | Jul 16 11:08 |
| schestowitz[TR] | I got the news at 10:19 | Jul 16 11:08 |
| matey | not necessarily THESE mras | Jul 16 11:08 |
| mjg59_ | So he went to therapy and he's genuinely a lot fucking better now | Jul 16 11:08 |
| schestowitz[TR] | 50 mins ago | Jul 16 11:09 |
| matey | what kind of therapist changes your politics? | Jul 16 11:09 |
| matey | /me legitimately doesnt know what news | Jul 16 11:09 |
| mjg59_ | Oh, I think he means his uncle | Jul 16 11:09 |
| matey | it must have tripped a filter | Jul 16 11:10 |
| mjg59_ | Anyway, Roy, I genuinely hope your uncle is ok | Jul 16 11:10 |
| mjg59_ | And that you get good news quickly | Jul 16 11:10 |
| matey | /me geniunely doesnt think roy has feelings about his family (and i wouldnt say this unless i was nearly fucking certain-- but its less than 100% of course) | Jul 16 11:11 |
| matey | i have minor evidence too | Jul 16 11:11 |
| matey | not that its important | Jul 16 11:11 |
| matey | of course thats no reason to wish ill on a stranger | Jul 16 11:11 |
| matey | just that it wont emotionally affect anyone here (unless its on someone elses behalf) | Jul 16 11:12 |
| matey | /me bears no ill will towards roys family of course | Jul 16 11:13 |
| matey | So he went to therapy and he's genuinely a lot fucking better now <- except hes more of a pushover too | Jul 16 11:14 |
| matey | when someone guarding the gate becomes a pushover, guess what happens to the gate | Jul 16 11:15 |
| matey | not that it shouldnt have all been up to him, but he was the only one bothering | Jul 16 11:15 |
| matey | you dont necessarily have to be an arsehole to not be a pushover of course, i never said you did | Jul 16 11:16 |
| matey | but when he became "better" he also became more of a pushover as well | Jul 16 11:16 |

| matey | youd have to exploit someone for a couple years, throw them under a bus and then have them spend an entire year trying to figure out just what the fucking deal is. | Jul 16 17:33 |

| matey | i would have to be the product of an affair then <- this wouldnt bother me, it is implausible though under the circumstances | Jul 16 17:50 |
| matey | it would also rob me of a german heritage, which would bother me even less, while doing nothing to the likelihood that im in fact jewish (which is a long story, but unrelated to why my family fled germany during or before the rise of hitler) | Jul 16 17:52 |

| XRevan86 | > whats the russian near-equivalent of schaudenfreude, except that (being russian) its a bit less about just enjoying someone else suffering and (of course) as much about being vindicated as anything else? | Jul 16 17:52 |
| XRevan86 | I think I know what ye mean, but no word is coming to me. | Jul 16 17:52 |
| *psydroid2 (~psydroid@memzbmehf99re.irc) has joined #techrights | Jul 16 17:53 | |
| matey | it may suffice to say that the russian version of schadenfreude refers to something a little more palatable / understandable | Jul 16 17:53 |
| matey | maybe freud was just feeling nasty about his fellow man that day, or maybe he was referring to sociopaths | Jul 16 17:53 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wiktionary.org | злорадство - Wiktionary | Jul 16 17:54 | |
| matey | (or maybe we are all really horrible people, though somehow i dont think thats what he was getting at) | Jul 16 17:54 |
| matey | https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/злорадство#Russian <- wiktionary is amazing sometimes | Jul 16 17:54 |
| matey | even when im down on wikipedia i cant knock it | Jul 16 17:55 |
| XRevan86 | What Wiktionary tells me here is that English doesn't have a simpler word for this concept. | Jul 16 17:55 |
| matey | i couldve told you that | Jul 16 17:55 |
| XRevan86 | Definitively :) | Jul 16 17:55 |
| matey | though i would consider wiktionary inconclusive | Jul 16 17:55 |
| matey | english is missing a lot of words that would be telling | Jul 16 17:56 |
| matey | for some reason europeans have them :) | Jul 16 17:56 |
| XRevan86 | The Russian word is pure Slavic, a compound of evil and being happy. | Jul 16 17:56 |
| matey | maybe because theyuve been around longer than the usa | Jul 16 17:56 |
| matey | but englands been around | Jul 16 17:56 |
| matey | but its still sort of imperial, sort of | Jul 16 17:56 |
| matey | and i think thats the distinction (but its a guess) | Jul 16 17:57 |
| matey | The Russian word is pure Slavic, a compound of evil and being happy. <- nice | Jul 16 17:57 |
| matey | "a compound of evil and being happy." | Jul 16 17:57 |
| XRevan86 | A compound analogous to "зловоние", which would be an evil smell. | Jul 16 17:57 |
| matey | isnt it a bit funny that the west came from siberia? | Jul 16 17:59 |
| matey | i mean, the same west that plagues putin so? | Jul 16 17:59 |
| XRevan86 | People move around. | Jul 16 17:59 |
| matey | of course | Jul 16 17:59 |
| XRevan86 | Ultimately we all came from Africa. | Jul 16 17:59 |
| matey | ultimately there was no need for transcontinental flights once upon a time | Jul 16 18:00 |
| matey | though... my guess is that was before humans showed up | Jul 16 18:00 |
| XRevan86 | "i mean, the same west that plagues putin so?" <- There are a lot more connections than that. | Jul 16 18:01 |
| matey | sure but this is the funny one | Jul 16 18:01 |
| XRevan86 | matey: There's some superficial Soviet revanchism going on, that stuff is kind of based on German philosophy, which is inherently Western. | Jul 16 18:04 |
| XRevan86 | It's more of a means to an end, a tool to rally up the older patriotic population. | Jul 16 18:05 |
| XRevan86 | But still. | Jul 16 18:05 |
| matey | There's some superficial Soviet revanchism going on, that stuff is kind of based on German philosophy | Jul 16 18:06 |
| matey | the relationship between russia and germany, particularly when "good", has generally been a disaster | Jul 16 18:07 |
| matey | i side with the internationalists. but germany still sucks a lot. | Jul 16 18:07 |
| matey | someday perhaps it will improve | Jul 16 18:07 |
| matey | it almost has to :/ | Jul 16 18:08 |
| XRevan86 | matey: The current reputation Germany has is more good than bad. | Jul 16 18:08 |
| matey | history is written by the victors | Jul 16 18:09 |
| XRevan86 | Not really. | Jul 16 18:09 |

| matey | imo the eu is accomplishing much of what hitler really wanted-- not in exactly the same fashion at least | Jul 16 18:10 |
| matey | a french and german europe | Jul 16 18:10 |
| matey | of course a french and german europe will fall apart as sure as a british america did | Jul 16 18:10 |
| matey | but most things look good to enough people on the way "up" | Jul 16 18:11 |
| matey | imo the eu is accomplishing much of what hitler really wanted <- not intended as a compliment, nor am saying theyre as bad as hitler | Jul 16 18:11 |
| matey | but its a source of entertainment, as you put it | Jul 16 18:11 |
| XRevan86 | matey: I have a Russian/Ukrainian analogy, but it's too boring to give the whole back-story for it. So just know there is one :D | Jul 16 18:11 |
| matey | and i consider it vindication, though id prefer to be wrong | Jul 16 18:11 |
| matey | the eu is a nasty piece of work in practice, imo | Jul 16 18:12 |
| matey | maybe its better than some things | Jul 16 18:12 |
| matey | im not sure leaving has helped britain at all | Jul 16 18:12 |
| matey | "independence" is a strange concept | Jul 16 18:13 |
| matey | the best reason to leave the eu is their oppressive kowtowing to corporate rule, imo | Jul 16 18:13 |
| matey | britain can do all of the worst on its own, without the eus help | Jul 16 18:13 |
| matey | so what was the point of leaving then? | Jul 16 18:13 |
| matey | why flee the oppression of a union if youre only going to recreate all the same conditions? | Jul 16 18:14 |
| XRevan86 | Eh, I'll try. So there's this Russian dissident Maxim Katz, and he caught a lot of bad press in the Ukraine blog-o-sphere for saying that the Russian World could've been a good thing if it were based on economical influence, like a regional centre of influence, but in a good way. | Jul 16 18:14 |
| matey | now they have two problems | Jul 16 18:14 |
| matey | (more than two but you get the idea) | Jul 16 18:14 |
| matey | and britain and the usa are hilarious | Jul 16 18:15 |
| matey | technically the usa makes all its own rules-- theres a lot of truth to that | Jul 16 18:15 |
| XRevan86 | "imo the eu is accomplishing much of what hitler really wanted" <- So what I'm saying is, in some way Germany gaining influence is what Hitler wanted, but the connection is not really there. | Jul 16 18:15 |
| XRevan86 | It's like seeing the connection between Russia becoming the centre of the region by making everyone rich and Russia trying to be the centre of the region by making war. | Jul 16 18:16 |
| matey | i think germany has too much european influence, which the eu reinforces or creates | Jul 16 18:16 |
| matey | It's like seeing the connection between Russia becoming the centre of the region by making everyone rich and Russia trying to be the centre of the region by making war. <- this assumes we understand each other, and im not sure we do (on this) | Jul 16 18:16 |
| XRevan86 | Basically, there's a nuance. | Jul 16 18:17 |
| matey | of course when it comes to european politics | Jul 16 18:17 |
| matey | Basically, there's a nuance. <- | Jul 16 18:17 |
| matey | ha | Jul 16 18:17 |
| matey | when it comes to european politics, i put more stock in your understanding than mine | Jul 16 18:17 |
| matey | but it would be incredibly lazy of me to throw out everything ive considered so far | Jul 16 18:17 |
| matey | and just say "well, this is what xrevan says, so it must be true" | Jul 16 18:18 |
| XRevan86 | I'm pretty narrow focused on the more Eastern part though. | Jul 16 18:18 |
| matey | even if it increased the frequency of me being right :) it would be incredibly sloppy and lazy to be right by such means | Jul 16 18:18 |
| matey | theres that as well | Jul 16 18:18 |
| XRevan86 | From here the EU looks all right, but my bar may be way lower. | Jul 16 18:20 |
| matey | yeah i think it would have to be | Jul 16 18:20 |
| XRevan86 | Some free press? That's already a win. | Jul 16 18:20 |

| matey | russia uses the state to control information | Jul 16 18:21 |
| matey | the west uses multi-billion-dollar bullshit instead. | Jul 16 18:21 |

| matey | putin just puts his dick in | Jul 16 18:56 |
| matey | america will spend decades on foreplay | Jul 16 18:56 |
| XRevan86 | Ilya Yashin talked about what happened in Bucha and now has criminal charges on dissemination of fakes. | Jul 16 18:57 |
| matey | i understand the distinction | Jul 16 18:57 |

| XRevan86 | He will likely catch 10 years. | Jul 16 18:57 |
| matey | i think it is a differnce of choice of tactics | Jul 16 18:57 |
| matey | as you said, there are other means | Jul 16 18:58 |
| XRevan86 | Gorinov, a Moscow MP, called the war a war, said that children died, and caught 7 years. | Jul 16 18:58 |

| matey | russia is run by a proud stalin wannabe, and china is a monstrous thing like it is today because of direct inspiration by stalin | Jul 16 19:04 |
| XRevan86 | Not wrong. | Jul 16 19:04 |
| matey | and america eats it up | Jul 16 19:04 |
| matey | granted, theres a nuance | Jul 16 19:04 |
| matey | but most of the time, neither the fake left or the fake right (because theyre real things-- the republican and democratic parties embody neither) put any sort of stop to "big government" or war crimes, or exploitation of the poor | Jul 16 19:05 |
| matey | they only argue about how we get there and how its presented | Jul 16 19:06 |

| britney | i had every right to do so and it was required by the rules of the court | Jul 16 23:21 |
| britney | they tried to get me to take all kinds of deals but i wouldn't budge | Jul 16 23:22 |
| britney | worst yet, they were dragging me into a jurisdiction 4 hours away from where i lived at the time | Jul 16 23:22 |

| britney | so i charged people in my jurisdiction | Jul 16 23:22 |
| britney | i dropped the charges once they did | Jul 16 23:22 |
| scientes | NO TITLE? | Jul 16 23:22 |
| scientes | ‘A special operation against city preservation advocates’ How commercial interests in St. Petersburg are using the ‘political situation’ to demolish historic buildings | Jul 16 23:23 |
| XRevan86 | "How commercial interests in St. Petersburg are using the ‘political situation’ to demolish historic buildings" | Jul 16 23:23 |
| britney | so there you go, a story from a legit legal professional | Jul 16 23:23 |
| XRevan86 | scientes: Full destruction of activism in Russia has opened some doors. | Jul 16 23:24 |
| scientes | XRevan86, opened? Looks more like they just break down the doors | Jul 16 23:25 |
| XRevan86 | Completed the process. | Jul 16 23:25 |
| scientes | They should dismantle the hermitage and St Peter the Great's small personal home | Jul 16 23:26 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah, never open the door for police. | Jul 16 23:26 |
| DaemonFC | Talk to them through the door. If they can't hear you, tell them to have their dispatcher call you, but just figure out what it's about. Don't admit to anything, don't agree to anything. | Jul 16 23:27 |
| DaemonFC | If they have to ask to come in, then they don't have a warrant and can only come in if you let them in. | Jul 16 23:27 |
| DaemonFC | They'll break the door down if they have a warrant. | Jul 16 23:27 |
| DaemonFC | Asking to come in is asking for a fishing expedition. They want to come in, see something that's illegal, get you on that, start a search.... | Jul 16 23:28 |
| DaemonFC | The problem is that anyone who is in the house can open up and let them in. | Jul 16 23:28 |
| DaemonFC | So if you're at a big party or something and one drunk asshole opens the door, they can see that there's underage drinking or something, come in, and arrest everybody. | Jul 16 23:29 |
| DaemonFC | Or if your spouse or roommate lets them in, they can come in. | Jul 16 23:29 |
| DaemonFC | You ought to have a safe that is locked. They can't just bust it open without a warrant. | Jul 16 23:29 |
| DaemonFC | If it has a $2 lock on it, doesn't matter. They can't open it without a warrant. | Jul 16 23:29 |
| britney | i used to worry about that because i smoked marijuana but it became legal so im not longer doing anything illegal | Jul 16 23:30 |
| britney | DaemonFC, do you think you can link the lawyer video on your blog? | Jul 16 23:31 |
