[00:25]	IsambardPrince	"Illinois has been the top State in the country for gun background checks for a few years now.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	Starting in 2020 I think.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	They're still trying to further restrict FOID cards, and they don't seem to understand what sort of danger our State is in. We have a hostile federal government that's threatening us in court. We have an Indiana government next door doing weird and creepy stuff like threatening to just "take" 35 of our counties away.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	They claim there's some sort of legal process for that, there's not going to be any legal process, but I am somewhat concerned that Trump and Braun could try to invade and topple the State and hand it over to Indiana. It probably won't happen for a while, but it's disturbing they're even talking about the "taking" of part of a State.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	This is basically Putin's tactics. He invaded Ukraine, claimed that part of it was "Russia anyway and here's a bunch of alternative history supporting that", and they've been at war for years now.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	I don't want this to end in a Constitutional Crisis where the Illinois National Guard is getting conflicting orders to either arrest Governor Pritzker or defend us from an incursion.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	I know it sounds crazy and paranoid, but given how many really strange things are happening I would not put it in the "completely impossible" category.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	And I just don't know why the State of Illinois is getting in the way of citizens arming themselves to defend themselves and the State if we get there. The State Constitution literally says it's the right of Citizens to bear arms for the security of themselves "and the defense of the State".
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	Certainly I do not want a fight but there are reasons why oaths include "from all enemies foreign and domestic". An invasion would mean we have "an enemy from within"."
[00:27]	IsambardPrince	Some States have a "State Defense Force". It's typically a volunteer thing. I think we definitely should be considering at least that.

[01:15]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, I made fun of the moderator on /r/immigration on Reddit on another forum he can see but doesn't moderate.
[01:16]	IsambardPrince	"What we're seeing this government do lately is not legal. They're even flaunting disobeying lawful court orders now and, well, I got banned from the immigration subreddit for "promoting misinformation" which was an NPR article about them violating court orders.

[02:20]		*x-amarsh04 (~amarsh04@h5zkbfemmwig6.irc) has joined #techrights
[02:20]	MinceR	i wouldn't expect sane rhetoric from there
[02:20]	IsambardPrince	They are talking about invading Illinois and taking a third of the State reckoning those people want to be in Indiana anyway.
[02:21]	IsambardPrince	They actually want another civil war. They think since Trump is in office, he either won't stop it or he'll help them.
[02:22]		*x-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)
[02:22]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, The National Guard Act and the State Constitution and the US Constitution say that the Governor can declare an invasion, insurrection, or rebellion, and declare martial law and use the military forces of the State to put it down.
[02:23]	IsambardPrince	So in theory if Indiana did try to invade, we could legally declare war on Indiana and repel the invasion.
[02:23]	IsambardPrince	The Constitution is silent on what "declare war" when a State is "being invaded" means.
[02:23]	IsambardPrince	So if Indiana did invade, we could declare war on another State.
[02:24]	MinceR	extern int war;
[02:24]	IsambardPrince	Because the Constitution has no language in it that says anything about one State invading. It just says States can't declare war except when there is an "invasion".
[02:24]	MinceR	there, i declared war

[02:33]	IsambardPrince	No.
[02:33]	IsambardPrince	People who voted for this or didn't vote at all chose this. Whatever happens is their fault, and honestly every day Trump is in office will be the worst day since yesterday.
[02:33]	IsambardPrince	Sorry about your luck, if you tried to avoid this.
[02:33]	IsambardPrince	I'm hearing too many stories about people saying "I voted for him but I didn't think I would suffer too!", to offer an unqualified statement of sympathy.
[02:33]	IsambardPrince	Voting for Trump as a US citizen spouse of an immigrant is the worst thing you can do as a spouse other than beating them, in my opinion.

[05:40]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, Someone said non-citizens can't vote so what I said made no sense when I said people who voted for Trump deserve what they get.
[05:40]	IsambardPrince	So I said,
[05:41]	IsambardPrince	"No, I should have clarified. Some people who are American citizens and voted for Trump are getting fired from the federal government, can't use their VA benefits, are having their Social Security checks stopped and are accused of being dead, and seeing their student loan payments more than triple because the Department of Education took down applications that were not subject to the court order, and are being arrested by ICE 
[05:41]	IsambardPrince	because they look brown even though they're citizens who voted for Trump, and are having their spouse arrested and are having to raid the life savings they were going to buy a house with and max out their credit cards trying to get their spouse out of ICE detainment using lawyers that like to be paid in private islands after they voted for Trump.
[05:41]	IsambardPrince	Those people deserve whatever they get.
[05:41]	IsambardPrince	People who didn't support this or couldn't even vote don't deserve it.
[05:41]	IsambardPrince	The ones who voted for it are the clearest case of "HAHA!" I've ever seen in my life.
[05:41]	IsambardPrince	That's what I mean.

[15:07]	schestowitz[TR2]	<MinceR> what difference does it make? fedora/qubes won't get the newest holes in cancerd?
[15:07]	schestowitz[TR2]	right
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	well, qubes ise fedora with xen
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	and afaik, it uses xxen for something like "jails"\
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	except not bsd
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	and each process or group thereof will be like a VM
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	they say for security
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	or insulation
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	how effective this is?
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	i'm not the best person to ask
[15:08]	schestowitz[TR2]	but it sounds a little "voodoo" tbh
[15:09]	schestowitz[TR2]	they might want to call it XenOS
[15:09]	schestowitz[TR2]	built on top of an experiment, fedora
[15:09]	MinceR	and with a massive pile of bullshitting about how running more copies of that massive backdoor is somehow supposed to make you secure
[15:09]	schestowitz[TR2]	maybe it tackles some breach scenarios
[15:09]	schestowitz[TR2]	but it likely opens the system up for other threats
[15:10]	schestowitz[TR2]	MinceR: seems more like containment of breach
[15:10]	schestowitz[TR2]	but you can somehow hop between VMs
[15:10]	schestowitz[TR2]	the v in VM is virtual
[15:10]	MinceR	you can't contain the breach by having copies of what caused the breach in every VM
[15:10]	schestowitz[TR2]	so there is no physical separation
[15:10]	schestowitz[TR2]	and xen does not lack a share of holes

[18:55]	TR Bot	 AI Can Rip You Off. Here's How California Lawmakers Want to Stop Price Discrimination The Markup
[18:56]	ZedHedTed	i hate "platforms" that make non-"official" clients against their TOS
[18:57]	Sompi	I mean, in the very near past communication protocols were expected to be open so that everyone could make their own implementations. Then suddenly Discord became a thing and everyone who could started using it (and of course that does not include people who use other desktop operating systems than Windows)
[18:58]	Sompi	Discord has banned third-party client implementations
[18:58]	schestowitz[TR2]	slack also
[18:58]	schestowitz[TR2]	iirc, there was some irc client bridge
[18:58]	Sompi	They remove your account if you break the rules
[18:58]	schestowitz[TR2]	but tyhey killed that off once they got "big enough"
[18:58]	schestowitz[TR2]	they just cut the rope
[18:59]	Sompi	Another thing that I don't understand is why people keep using those centralized services
[18:59]	Sompi	Because the corporation that owns it can literally remove your account at any time
[18:59]	MinceR	most people probably can't even process the word "centralized"
● Mar 17
[19:00]	MinceR	also, most people seem to have APT, and thus enjoy having a corporation have such power over them (and others)
[19:00]	Sompi	Now you cannot even log in to Windows 11 without using a Microsoft account, which also means that you can get banned from your own personal computer
[19:00]	Sompi	It's crazy
[19:00]	ZedHedTed	same w/ chromebooks and stock android
[19:01]	MinceR	android seems to work fine without a goolag account
[19:01]	Sompi	Does Chromebook also need Google account?
[19:01]	MinceR	i think it does
[19:02]	ZedHedTed	MinceR: heh, the sad thing is your joke is mostly reality. try explaining centralized vs. decentralized to most ppl.

[19:02]	MinceR	i didn't mean it as a joke
[19:02]	Sompi	I remember reading some blog post about this, how risky it is when everything is behind some centralized Microsoft or Google account
[19:02]	Sompi	you lose everything if you lose that account
[19:03]	Sompi	ZedHedTed: And again, the weird thing is that people DID understand those things just few years ago. Even all online multiplayer games were self-hosted so these concepts must have been understood to be able to play them
[19:03]	Sompi	Then suddenly something happened and almost no-one understands anything anymore
[19:04]	ZedHedTed	MinceR: my bad. i wish it were a joke or at least hyperbole. but it's the dumbing down of america, and the world. and companies want dumb users.
[19:04]	MinceR	i wish it too
[19:04]	Sompi	But this makes it possible to control people's opinions very efficiently - if you write some wrongthing on the internet, you cannot even log in to your own computer anymore. You lose all your files and the ability to use computers at all
[19:04]	MinceR	and not just companies want that, governments want it too, and, of course, so do churches
[19:05]	Sompi	wrongthink*
[19:05]	MinceR	i think that's crimethink
[19:07]	ZedHedTed	1984 was not supposed to be an instruction manual
[19:07]	Sompi	But can it really be possible that they don't understand that they can now be banned from their own computer?
[19:07]	Sompi	Because that should be obvious, if you use the Microsoft account to log in
[19:08]	Sompi	That should be literally obvious to everyone whose IQ is greater than their shoe size
[19:08]	ZedHedTed	they don't even think about what's on the other side. they just put their password in & since it's on their screen, they think it's theirs.
[19:10]	Sompi	But how
[19:11]	Sompi	It seems like they don't understand the very basic reason-and-effect-relations of things
[19:12]	Sompi	If you log in using a fucking MICROSOFT ACCOUNT, it should be obvious that it 1) needs an internet connection to log in and 2) Microsoft can ban you from your own personal computer if they want to do so

[19:17]	ZedHedTed	i work in IT support. i've seen quite a few acts of stupidity.
[19:18]	Sompi	That level of ignorance is comparable to bumping against a wall while walking and still not noticing that the wall is there

[22:54]	ZedHedTed	apple, my favorite fashion brand :P
[22:54]	MinceR	this is also why crApple's bullshit about 8GB RAM being enough was accepted by them
[22:54]	MinceR	yeah
[22:58]	IsambardPrince	The judge is already getting pissed. If it was me, I'd have ordered the court officers to throw the DOJ lawyers in prison on contempt of court until such time as they felt like answering my questions, and set a $5,000 per day civil contempt fine.
[22:58]	IsambardPrince	The DOJ has no role on contempt charges. The judge issues them and decides immediately whether you are in contempt. When you flout a court order, mock the judge, and refuse to answer questions and say "What will you do about it?"
[22:58]	IsambardPrince	The answer is "You're in contempt!" "Take him away!"

[22:59]	IsambardPrince	The judge can put them in prison for 6 months or until they agree to answer questions, and there's no limit on the fines.

[23:01]	IsambardPrince	I wish I was a judge. "I hear one more thing out of your mouth that isn't 'YES SIR I UNDERSTAND!' and you're going to prison! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME!?"
[23:04]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, "If it was up to me, and I was not bound by the strictures the law, we would reach back into a time of a purer, sterner form of justice and have you BURNED AT THE STAKE!!!"
[23:04]	IsambardPrince	:)
[23:04]	IsambardPrince	I loved that movie.

[23:28]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz-pi, ^
[23:28]	IsambardPrince	Canada responded to Musk's threat to cut them off of SpaceX and Starlink by removing more Tesla incentives.

[23:39]	IsambardPrince	It's the B article.
[23:39]	IsambardPrince	"The Trouble With Teslas"
[23:39]	IsambardPrince	I decided to play on the Star Trek episode "The Trouble With Tribbles".
[23:40]	IsambardPrince	Practically the only thing Tribbles do is eat all the food and multiply. They're a nuisance and eventually they become such a huge pest that even though all they do is sit there and coo, people will do most anything to try to exterminate them.

[23:59]	IsambardPrince	I told someone on Reddit: "I wouldn't go to Florida. The place crawls with Nazis. Most are cops. They're scum.
[23:59]	IsambardPrince	Over 70% of the ICE 287(g) agreements are either in Florida or Texas.
[23:59]	IsambardPrince	I just wouldn't go to a State that hates immigrants that much even if you have a Green Card.
[23:59]	IsambardPrince	You can tell how hostile a State is to immigrants by looking at how many locals participate in 287(g). It's a proxy for anti-immigrant sentiment in law enforcement, which is a reflection of the voters (elected Sheriffs).
[23:59]	IsambardPrince	The safest States are the ones that have opted out via State law."
