| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, I keep getting spam from an "opencare" about booking a dentist and getting a gift card. | Jun 18 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| DaemonFC | Of course, when I went to see which dentists let you book through them, I noticed most were in Chicago and had like aromatherapy and shit going on, so you know what a cleaning must cost there. | Jun 18 00:03 |
| DaemonFC | I don't know who decided to have a day spa in the middle of a dentist's office. | Jun 18 00:03 |
| DaemonFC | In case it wasn't expensive enough to go to a dentist maybe? | Jun 18 00:03 |
| DaemonFC | I noticed a lot of dentists have just stopped taking ANY dental insurance. | Jun 18 00:04 |
| DaemonFC | And they charge really high prices. | Jun 18 00:04 |
| DaemonFC | I had Dr. Goone (my dentist) quote me on Mandy. Since he didn't accept the Blue Cross PPO plan (or any insurance), he said it would cost about $8,700 to take Mandy to see him, and he recommended finding an in-network dentist instead. | Jun 18 00:05 |
| DaemonFC | It's still going to cost about $3,500-$4,000, but that beats the hell out of $8,700. | Jun 18 00:05 |
| DaemonFC | There's nothing really wrong with my teeth and it doesn't look like there will be for a while, so getting dental insurance for myself would basically just mean flushing $600 a year down the toilet. | Jun 18 00:06 |
| DaemonFC | The last cavity I had was 15 years ago. Actually, 15 years and a month. | Jun 18 00:07 |
| DaemonFC | I get my cleanings at a dental school that charges $15. | Jun 18 00:07 |

| DaemonFC | That's about the only benefit I'd have gotten had I paid dental premiums for 15 years and a month. So assuming that it costs about $50 a month to get a decent plan, then that's like $9050 in wasted premiums over that time period to get pretty much no benefits. | Jun 18 00:09 |
| DaemonFC | It's a better investment to just go to the dental clinic and use an Oral B electric toothbrush that basically removes all of the plaque. | Jun 18 00:10 |
| DaemonFC | The manual toothbrushes almost never remove that much plaque. Some of them can do an okay job. | Jun 18 00:10 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.dentaly.org | Oral-B iO Electric Toothbrush Review: Is It Worth the Price? | Jun 18 00:11 | |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, They changed the handle so they could introduce new brush heads that are not compatible. | Jun 18 00:11 |
| DaemonFC | I bought about 5 years of heads because my last Oral B lasted about 7 years I think. You don't want to get caught not being able to get replacement parts, but you don't want to hoard and have leftovers that don't work with the next product you'll have to buy. | Jun 18 00:12 |
| DaemonFC | "Most of Oral-B's other current toothbrushes are more or less the same on the inside. With the iO, though, they have completely revolutionized how the toothbrush works." | Jun 18 00:13 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah, I'm sure there have been exciting new advancements in the field. | Jun 18 00:13 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, ^ | Jun 18 00:13 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jun 18 00:13 |

| DaemonFC | MinceR, Reminds me of Kevin Spacey in American Beauty interviewing for a fast food job. | Jun 18 00:13 |
| MinceR | i prefer the philips sonicare | Jun 18 00:14 |
| DaemonFC | "I have fast food experience!" Manager: "Yeah, like 30 years ago." "Well, I'm sure there have been exciting advancements in the field, but I'm sure you must have some sort of training program.". | Jun 18 00:14 |
| MinceR | :> | Jun 18 00:14 |
| DaemonFC | The joke of course being that those jobs are so easy some idiot teenager high on pot can walk in there and do them. | Jun 18 00:16 |
| DaemonFC | And that's why they pay minimum wage. | Jun 18 00:16 |
| MinceR | "I was pretty hungover yesterday, but I think I remember where I work." | Jun 18 00:18 |

| DaemonFC | You can get some cheap "plaque candy" if you really want to know if you're missing anything. | Jun 18 00:41 |
| DaemonFC | The dental school dyes my teeth with it and then when I look in the mirror, there's no plaque on them. | Jun 18 00:41 |
| DaemonFC | And that's with the "old" Oral B toothbrush without an app. | Jun 18 00:41 |
| DaemonFC | Okay, the "cheap" Io starts at $125 and they go all the way up to $255. | Jun 18 00:43 |

| DaemonFC | "It should go without saying really, the iO toothbrush leaves your teeth feeling super clean. You'd expect that from a toothbrush that has six years of research and over 250 patents behind it." | Jun 18 00:43 |
| DaemonFC | LOL | Jun 18 00:44 |
| DaemonFC | 250 patents! | Jun 18 00:44 |
| DaemonFC | Patents make your teeth clean! | Jun 18 00:44 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz, ^ | Jun 18 00:44 |
| DaemonFC | Just toss the old one in the trash. This one has patents! | Jun 18 00:45 |
| DaemonFC | They've also doubled the price of the heads! | Jun 18 00:46 |
| DaemonFC | Doubling the price of the toothbrush and the heads makes your teeth extra clean, because the patents only go so far. | Jun 18 00:46 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, I'd probably change to the Amazon Solimo toothbrush myself. | Jun 18 00:46 |
| DaemonFC | They use Amazon's older style Oral B compatible heads. | Jun 18 00:47 |
| DaemonFC | Literally the only reason the IO exists is they took out more patents and doubled the price. | Jun 18 00:47 |
| *fuzzy (~fuzzy@txkdaiuveepza.irc) has joined #techrights | Jun 18 00:47 | |
| DaemonFC | Actually, the base model of the old style oral B handle and starter kit was only $45. | Jun 18 00:47 |
| DaemonFC | The main difference was I think the 1000 doesn't have a pressure sensor, multiple brushing modes, and Bluetooth. | Jun 18 00:48 |
| DaemonFC | Other than that, it's exactly the same as the more expensive ones. | Jun 18 00:48 |
| MinceR | 18 014007 < DaemonFC> The Terminator brush. | Jun 18 00:48 |
| MinceR | once the human is dead, it can't get its teeth filthy again. | Jun 18 00:49 |
| DaemonFC | The main thing I like about my 6000 series, which I got from Amazon Warehouse for $70, is that it has some more aggressive brushing modes and the pressure sensor. | Jun 18 00:49 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, The 6000 series is machine phase matter and can turn humans into other Terminators. The 1000 series is just your basic mimetic polyalloy. Weeeeeeak!!!! | Jun 18 00:50 |
| DaemonFC | I would make sense that Skynet (Matt Smith) would install itself into the most advanced and dangerous model it had ever conceived of. | Jun 18 00:50 |
| DaemonFC | In a war you have weapons, and you have small weapons, medium sized weapons, and big ones. You make relatively few of the big ones, normally. | Jun 18 00:51 |
| MinceR | > If you're consistently missing part of your mouth | Jun 18 00:52 |
| MinceR | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Di_flqPYsfs | Jun 18 00:52 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-@Invidious: https://invidious.weblibre.org/watch?v=Di_flqPYsfs | Jun 18 00:52 | |
| DaemonFC | In the case of Skynet, it was pretty clear that the 1000 series Terminator was pretty difficult to stop and showed rudimentary emotions, and the 800 series could even start thinking on its own after a while. | Jun 18 00:52 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights--> invidious.weblibre.org | Aperture Science Material Emancipation Grid - Invidious | Jun 18 00:52 | |
| DaemonFC | So the cost of having some 1000 series models get away from you is worse than having an 800 or 600 series go rogue. | Jun 18 00:52 |
| DaemonFC | In the Salvation timeline, Skynet was still even using the T-1s with some improvements. | Jun 18 00:53 |
| DaemonFC | The less advanced they are, they less dangerous they are to Skynet. As long as they can patrol an area and kill humans, for the most part it doesn't matter. | Jun 18 00:53 |
| DaemonFC | They're not an infiltrator model, they don't have to blend in. | Jun 18 00:53 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, I don't know how a toothbrush needs an app to tell you you're missing some of your teeth with the toothbrush. | Jun 18 00:55 |
| DaemonFC | If you brush in quadrants, it's pretty easy to keep track of where you've been and what's next. | Jun 18 00:55 |
| MinceR | it's cheaper to run their code on your phone than to put enough hardware in the toothbrush to run it | Jun 18 00:55 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah, and they can pass the savings along with a $250 handle that needs a $10 brush every few months. | Jun 18 00:56 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Jun 18 00:56 |
| DaemonFC | They might as well make the handle a smartphone for what they charge you. | Jun 18 00:57 |
| DaemonFC | As far as you're concerned. | Jun 18 00:57 |
| DaemonFC | By the time they're done with you, you'll have paid them at least $450 over 5 years for a damned toothbrush. | Jun 18 00:57 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.consumerreports.org | Should You Use an Electric Toothbrush or a Manual Toothbrush? - Consumer Reports | Jun 18 02:50 | |
| DaemonFC | "But most people still use a traditional manual toothbrush instead of a powered device. According to a report by consumer marketing analysis firm Mintel, only 36 percent of adults say they use an electric toothbrush. These devices are more popular among older age groups and people with higher incomes, however: Mintel reports that half of people 55 and older with annual incomes of $75,000 or more prefer using an electric toothbrush over a manual | Jun 18 02:50 |
| DaemonFC | one." | Jun 18 02:50 |
| DaemonFC | I wonder if it's a question of being better educated or just the snob appeal and laziness of letting a machine do the grunt work for you. | Jun 18 02:51 |

| DaemonFC | mjg59_ know about that last bit. Rich assholes getting in the back of their Tesla and letting AutoCrash take over. | Jun 18 02:51 |
| DaemonFC | "One of the more comprehensive analyses of the topic—a 2014 review of studies by the independent Cochrane Collaboration—gave powered toothbrushes a slight edge at cleaning away plaque. | Jun 18 02:53 |
| DaemonFC | The researchers looked at 56 clinical trials of unsupervised toothbrushing by more than 5,000 adults and children, and found that study subjects who used a powered toothbrush showed an 11 percent reduction in plaque at one to three months, and a 21 percent reduction after three months or more, compared with those who used a manual toothbrush. | Jun 18 02:53 |
| DaemonFC | They also found that users of electric toothbrushes had a 6 percent reduction in gingivitis (gum disease) at one to three months and an 11 percent reduction after three months or longer." | Jun 18 02:53 |
| DaemonFC | That's probably worth the marginal cost difference for the toothbrush. | Jun 18 02:53 |
| DaemonFC | Considering that dentists don't give away fillings and other services for free. | Jun 18 02:53 |
| DaemonFC | And who wants them if you can avoid it anyway, even if it was free? | Jun 18 02:53 |
| *XFaCE (~XFaCE@uzfeivw9fp6ba.irc) has joined #techrights | Jun 18 02:53 | |
| DaemonFC | It would be interesting to look at how many fillings, extractions, etc. both groups needed over a 5 or 10 year period. | Jun 18 02:55 |
| DaemonFC | "A German study published in 2019 in the journal Clinical Periodontology also found that electric toothbrushes were more effective for gum health. Here, researchers at University Medicine Greifswald, who followed 2,819 adults over 11 years, determined that using a powered toothbrush reduced the progression of periodontal disease. Plus, electric toothbrush users had healthier gums overall and retained 19 percent more teeth over the study period | Jun 18 02:56 |
| DaemonFC | than those using a manual toothbrush." | Jun 18 02:56 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-wgntv.com | Florida won’t provide state resources for giving COVID shots to kids under 5: DeSantis | WGN-TV | Jun 18 05:52 | |
| DaemonFC | DeSantis said the trial data on the vaccines is “abysmal” and suggested they have not been through enough testing to ensure they are safe for use in kids. | Jun 18 05:52 |
| DaemonFC | “Our Department of Health has been very clear, the risk outweighs the benefits and we recommend against it. That’s not the same as banning it. People can access it if they want to,” DeSantis said. | Jun 18 05:52 |

| DaemonFC | I get my flu shot. I know it isn't terrific, but there have been, I think, like 77 years of data on them. | Jun 18 05:53 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | weird | Jun 18 07:22 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | I remember sium city | Jun 18 07:22 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it was a fun game | Jun 18 07:22 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | took into account limitations of computers | Jun 18 07:22 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | and variuous others | Jun 18 07:23 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | pressure washer vandalism isn't novel | Jun 18 07:24 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | like drawing obscene things | Jun 18 07:24 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | not really | Jun 18 07:25 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | they say it is cleaning | Jun 18 07:25 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | yoiu said guy on youtube | Jun 18 07:26 |
| matey | thats whats funny about it | Jun 18 07:26 |
| matey | someone made a "pressure washer" app/"game" | Jun 18 07:26 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | so I assume someone had a channel when he goes around doing obscene things for "likes" | Jun 18 07:26 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | as they release a new version of android and ios every year | Jun 18 07:31 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | anbd then deprecate a bunch of stuff | Jun 18 07:31 |
| matey | android is pretty much dead to me | Jun 18 07:31 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | then they call installing stuff "sideloading" | Jun 18 07:31 |
| matey | heres what happens every time i get an android device | Jun 18 07:31 |
| matey | 1. its used / cheaper | Jun 18 07:31 |
| matey | 2. i root it and remove all the shit | Jun 18 07:31 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | so as to encourae people to ONLY install what Pentagon contractors have approved | Jun 18 07:31 |
| matey | 3. i put my favourite stuff from fdroid on it | Jun 18 07:32 |
| matey | 4. i dont use any of it except the better keyboard and do everything with the browser (cgi-bin, server on network, js stuff like that) | Jun 18 07:32 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | btw, weatehr apps and typically malware | Jun 18 07:32 |
| matey | 5. i get bored then i dont do anything on android for 2 more years | Jun 18 07:32 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | not many people talk about it | Jun 18 07:32 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | they spy | Jun 18 07:32 |
| matey | well yeah | Jun 18 07:33 |
| matey | so basically ill get an android device | Jun 18 07:33 |
| matey | use it for a week or two | Jun 18 07:33 |
| matey | then nothing on android for 2 more years | Jun 18 07:33 |
| matey | worthless | Jun 18 07:33 |
| matey | and no matter what i install i only use the browser anyway | Jun 18 07:33 |
| matey | worthless | Jun 18 07:33 |
| matey | i dont even like touchscreens | Jun 18 07:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | there is one upside | Jun 18 07:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | not for me | Jun 18 07:33 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | lots of productivity sank | Jun 18 07:34 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | if course not much gets done | Jun 18 07:34 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | or sit in some pew somewhere else | Jun 18 07:34 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | for most things | Jun 18 07:40 |
| matey | Extended use of gestural interfaces without the ability of the user to rest their arm is referred to as "gorilla arm".[92] It can result in fatigue, and even repetitive stress injury when routinely used in a work setting. Certain early pen-based interfaces required the operator to work in this position for much of the workday.[93] Allowing the user to rest their hand or arm on the input device or a frame around it is a solution for this in many contexts | Jun 18 07:40 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | for phones too | Jun 18 07:40 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | we got faster procesror by ignoring energy constraints | Jun 18 07:46 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and makign tings smaller and smaller with more transistors | Jun 18 07:46 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | we could use as few transisitors as before | Jun 18 07:46 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | just make them take less power and physical space | Jun 18 07:46 |
| matey | turns out tech utopia is more of a fruitopia | Jun 18 07:47 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but now you have "chat" software that takes 200MB just to get starter | Jun 18 07:47 |
| matey | i still like tech... but when its reasonable | Jun 18 07:47 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it should take 200 KILObytes | Jun 18 07:47 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | gnome 3 and kwin (and its fork) just adopt a few minnimalist elemnts of these | Jun 18 07:48 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | they are nice to look at, but of no practical value | Jun 18 07:48 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | compositing also | Jun 18 07:48 |
| matey | compositing, RARELY, has practical value | Jun 18 07:48 |
| matey | mostly its for fun | Jun 18 07:48 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | visual | Jun 18 07:48 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | like fonr hinting | Jun 18 07:48 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | computationally not expensive | Jun 18 07:49 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | the GPU takes the brunt | Jun 18 07:49 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | which on the surfave makes sense | Jun 18 07:59 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but less fatigue for workers | Jun 18 07:59 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | GE said no | Jun 18 07:59 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | it's something about controlling you "100% of the time" | Jun 18 08:00 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and having you work overtime, too | Jun 18 08:00 |
| matey | they dont want to spend more time training | Jun 18 08:00 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it's about control | Jun 18 08:00 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | not just trianing | Jun 18 08:00 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it took me a while to understand their thinkiong | Jun 18 08:00 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | it's somethjing like this: | Jun 18 08:00 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | we train you, you get experienced | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | then you become more productive (per time unit) | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | so then we want you working for us 40 or more hours a week | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | for them, two people working 20 hours each is "worse" | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | because each is considered "less able" | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | even if there are unique skills | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | they don't view it that way | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | they want "factory floor" mindsets | Jun 18 08:01 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | where you do one thing snd do it werll, repatedly | Jun 18 08:02 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | no room for creativity | Jun 18 08:02 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | or lateral thinking | Jun 18 08:02 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and they then accusee the victims of "great resignation" | Jun 18 08:02 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | many people DO resign | Jun 18 08:02 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but die tio mistreatment by management | Jun 18 08:02 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | of course far more people are laid or OR driven out then actually resign | Jun 18 08:02 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | ICBM lays off HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of workers | Jun 18 08:03 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | call that "great reignation" is an insult to the victims' intelligence | Jun 18 08:03 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | guess who they fire | Jun 18 08:03 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | the high-paid workers | Jun 18 08:03 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | who possess the most skills/experience | Jun 18 08:03 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | so they then moan about "skill shortage" | Jun 18 08:03 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | if true, which isn't the case, ti is a self-fulfilling prophecy | Jun 18 08:04 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | imposed by oneself | Jun 18 08:04 |

| schestowitz_TR2 | efficiencies vary | Jun 18 08:04 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but they generally work | Jun 18 08:04 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | likewise with some workers | Jun 18 08:04 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but they treat people like cogwheels | Jun 18 08:05 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | "work animals" are "productive" | Jun 18 08:05 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | but they don't care about any other aspect | Jun 18 08:05 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, Corporations and people can file for Chapter 7. The main difference is when it's a personal bankruptcy and you file for liquidation, most people lose nothing because their situation is so hopeless at that point it's a no asset case. | Jun 18 11:18 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | what if the lending companies go bankrupt | Jun 18 11:18 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and then file for bankruptcy | Jun 18 11:18 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and then the state or whatnot files for bakrupcies | Jun 18 11:18 |
| schestowitz_TR2 | and china or KSA ge all angry | Jun 18 11:18 |
| DaemonFC | When it's corporate, the trustee appoints people to go in, figure out what they have left, sell it all, and then dissolve the corporation. | Jun 18 11:18 |
| matey | en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bankruptcy_in_the_United_Kingdom | Jun 18 11:18 |
| matey | In England and Wales, bankruptcy is governed by Part IX of the Insolvency Act 1986 (as amended) and by the Insolvency Rules 1986 (as amended). The term bankruptcy applies only to individuals, not to companies or other legal entities. An individual may be made bankrupt only by court order following the presentation of a bankruptcy petition. | Jun 18 11:18 |

| matey | nationalcenter.org/ncppr/2014/09/03/does-britain-have-medical-bankruptcies-yes/ | Jun 18 11:19 |
| matey | For starters, medical bills are not the only way a medical bankruptcy can occur. For example, if you have an illness that requires a major operation in Britain, you are likely to end up on a long waiting list. And if the illness renders you unable to work, then the longer you are on the waiting list the more your finances will be strained. | Jun 18 11:19 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, They have this thing in US hospitals called the "chargemaster" which is a list of what they charge for everything they can do there. And it's basically the "big book of fake prices 'n shit". Then the insurance companies negotiate "fake discounts".

| matey | i guess they had a lot of corporations back then | Jun 18 11:24 |
| DaemonFC | You pay insurance to protect you from the "big book of fake prices 'n shit" which are actually what the hospital will sue you for and try to take if you have no insurance. | Jun 18 11:24 |
| matey | Company bankruptcy is a term commonly used when referring to company liquidation. In the UK, the term bankruptcy is only applicable to individuals, including sole traders and members of partnerships. For a limited company, a process known as liquidation would be the equivalent of company bankruptcy. | Jun 18 11:25 |
| DaemonFC | Even though the hospital is perfectly happy to take an $80,000 appendectomy visit and adjust it down to like $9,000 for the insurance companies, they will NOT do that for you. | Jun 18 11:25 |
| DaemonFC | You can tell them "I can't pay that. I won't pay that. Try again!". And they may offer to set up payment arrangements on $40,000 or something and force you into slavery to pay down your medical bills. | Jun 18 11:25 |
| DaemonFC | Eventually so many things happen to you over the years that everyone files bankruptcy eventually. | Jun 18 11:26 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, ^ | Jun 18 11:26 |
| DaemonFC | So that's how it works. | Jun 18 11:26 |
| matey | www.theguardian.com/business/2011/feb/18/ireland-property-crash-bankruptcy-tourism 2011-02-18 | Jun 18 11:26 |
| matey | Declaring himself bankrupt in Ireland is not a realistic option: bankrupts must wait 12 years before they are discharged from their debts. But under European Union law he can file for bankruptcy | Jun 18 11:26 |
| DaemonFC | matey, That's more like a US Chapter 13 case, I guess. | Jun 18 11:26 |
| matey | Creditors of Westlife singer Shane Filan, who was declared bankrupt in Britain in June after being unable to repay €18 million worth of debts built up in property developments in Leitrim and ... | Jun 18 11:27 |
| DaemonFC | If you make too much money to file a straight bankruptcy here, or have non-exempt property that you want to keep, you have to file a non-liquidation bankruptcy. | Jun 18 11:27 |
| DaemonFC | The court puts all your debt into one "pot" and adjusts the interest rate on it to one that's way lower. Like, you know, your credit cards, car loan, etc., can all go into a pot where you pay 5% or something. | Jun 18 11:28 |
| DaemonFC | Then you have to make a monthly payment to the trustee which amounts to whatever the court decides your "disposable" income is. | Jun 18 11:28 |
| DaemonFC | After 5 years, the payments stop and whatever debts remain go away. | Jun 18 11:29 |
| DaemonFC | MARISOL got them in so much trouble that there's no way to file a straight bankruptcy because they make too much, they want to cling to "their stuff" instead of letting a trustee dispose of it, and they'd have to pay back almost all of their debt and trash their credit on a Chapter 13 plan if they tried to use the courts for relief. | Jun 18 11:30 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, I've come to the conclusion that GM simply makes their cars to rust. | Jun 18 11:32 |
| DaemonFC | Why else would you put metal fenders and wheel wells in there without some sort of plastic guard to eliminate stone chips? | Jun 18 11:33 |
| DaemonFC | I mean, this is a very easy problem to eliminate. You just put plastic trim over it to guard against pebbles and stuff that the tires kick up off the road. | Jun 18 11:33 |
| DaemonFC | Because if they hit the paint and damage it, you can get rust several years later from just one little nick. | Jun 18 11:34 |

| DaemonFC | One of the ways Trump/Republicans try to keep out immigrants is to accuse them of being “diseased” with COVID-19, which I always thought was an interesting argument, to say the least. | Jun 18 12:19 |
| DaemonFC | Most Republicans are so “afraid” of COVID-19 that they refuse to wear a face mask, don’t see any need to get vaccinated, and sue to have super-spreader events while comparing it to the cold and flu season, but then it becomes the Bubonic Plague or Ebola when it comes to why we have to keep immigrants out. | Jun 18 12:19 |

| DaemonFC | NFTs are sort of like a religion, like fakecoins are. You have people paying real money for a product that they aren't allowed to see, which probably doesn't even exist, and which gets inflated in value some more each time it's retold to make the story more compelling. | Jun 18 12:27 |
| DaemonFC | Religion is basically getting people to pay for a product they can't see or complain about until they're dead and can't warn anyone else "Boy was I a sucker!". | Jun 18 12:27 |
| DaemonFC | Anyway, there's some more BillSEZ this morning on NFTs. | Jun 18 12:27 |
| DaemonFC | They want you putting money in the plate every week, more often actually. They pass it around on Wednesdays too! | Jun 18 12:28 |
| DaemonFC | The people who get religious are old because they start psychologically discounting their remaining days like the people around them do. | Jun 18 12:28 |
| DaemonFC | My grandparents were at church at least three times a week for as long as I can remember. More if they had a get together for dinner or something. | Jun 18 12:29 |

| DaemonFC | It's a social group. I mean, there's nothing wrong with associating with people who reject being "worldly", in and of itself, but it morphs into beliefs in the supernatural and two minutes hate against the nasty gay men and all sorts of other foul thing. | Jun 18 12:31 |
| DaemonFC | *things | Jun 18 12:31 |
| DaemonFC | In the sense that most Christians use the term "worldly", it's a catch-all for everything wrong with the world. Basically, that people have turned into slobs that get trashy tattoos and body piercings and go around spreading STDs and getting each other knocked up, and drugs. | Jun 18 12:32 |
| DaemonFC | And there's nothing wrong with wanting to stand up to all of that and say it's not acceptable, because it's not acceptable. | Jun 18 12:32 |
| DaemonFC | "Social Media" has become another vent for everyone letting their freak flag fly | Jun 18 12:33 |
| DaemonFC | And if the Internet needed something else, you know, it's another way for degenerates to show off and to get hookedo n pornography. | Jun 18 12:33 |
| DaemonFC | *on | Jun 18 12:33 |
| DaemonFC | I think in some ways I benefited from going to a private Christian school. For starters, nobody learns anything in public school anyway. | Jun 18 12:37 |
| DaemonFC | Here's the kind of people I get to deal with. | Jun 18 12:37 |
| DaemonFC | You call Walmart Grocery Pickup and say "I'm in a silver Buick in parking space number 4.". | Jun 18 12:37 |
| DaemonFC | And they make you repeat everything back to then like 4 times before they understand that. | Jun 18 12:37 |
| DaemonFC | I called the CTA to ask about getting my mother a Senior Reduced Fare Pass, and said she lived in Indiana. | Jun 18 12:38 |
| DaemonFC | The woman goes, "Oh, so is that outside of Illinois?". I couldn't help myself. I said, "Well, it has been ever since Congress split it off from the Indiana territory in 1806. Things were hard in those days, but eventually the issue of slavery was settled and neighborhoods started to be electrified about 90 years later.". | Jun 18 12:41 |

| DaemonFC | Sam's Club is selling $8 membership for the first year. | Jun 18 12:50 |
| DaemonFC | I never got the whole warehouse club thing. | Jun 18 12:50 |
| DaemonFC | After you buy a $45 a year membership, they don't generally save you enough money to recoup that. | Jun 18 12:50 |
| DaemonFC | They have cheap gas, but not cheaper than BP, Shell, or Speedway with Upside and my credit card. | Jun 18 12:52 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR2, I was looking at low rolling resistance tires as a possibility. They don't seem to save enough money to be worth the cost, and I have nearly full tread on the tires on the car right now. | Jun 18 13:01 |
| DaemonFC | I think expensive tires are a big gamble. Cheap ones, not really. | Jun 18 13:01 |
| DaemonFC | 20 years ago it was a different story. | Jun 18 13:01 |
| DaemonFC | The expensive ones meant quality. They were all made in the United States, they had the best materials. If you got a cheap set that were made in China you knew you'd hate them but the price was like maybe $40 per tire. | Jun 18 13:02 |
| DaemonFC | Now you pay for the brand and get $800 after tax and installation and you still might not like them. | Jun 18 13:03 |
| DaemonFC | You get the brand and they're all made in some sweatshop. | Jun 18 13:03 |
| DaemonFC | When I replace tires just depends on how much tread is left and what season we're heading into. | Jun 18 13:10 |
| DaemonFC | If we're about to go into winter and they have 4/32, I might replace them, but if we're heading into Spring or Summer, I'll go ahead and run them down a few more months and toss them them. | Jun 18 13:11 |
| DaemonFC | *then | Jun 18 13:11 |
| DaemonFC | If you can beat them up for another couple thousand miles before you absolutely have to toss them, you'll get your money's worth. | Jun 18 13:11 |
| DaemonFC | I think one reason people get a Sam's membership is the car tires. | Jun 18 13:12 |
| DaemonFC | If I needed a set, I'd definitely get the $8 membership just for the tire prices, and then cancel it before it renewed next year. | Jun 18 13:12 |

| DaemonFC | MinceR, ^ | Jun 18 21:31 |
| DaemonFC | If you look at the T-X heads up display there's plenty of gags and easter eggs that show up in the HUD after the T-850 (Arnold) damages a couple of them with a grenade launcher. | Jun 18 21:32 |

| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR, I'm writing another blog post. I touch on European cars. | Jun 18 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | "Nobody I've ever known who has had a VW says they'd ever own another one, and that includes my mom, who had the engine on a new VW Rabbit blow up and strand her in Illinois in 1983, when the thing only had 40,000 miles on it and had been taken care of, and an ex that I dated for about a year in 2013 who couldn't afford to keep his 2009 Jetta on the road because the reliability took a dump when the car was only about 4 years old and it was | Jun 18 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | constantly at the mechanics and they never could make the stupid thing work right, and there was a car payment as well." | Jun 18 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | "It's no secret that I've always bought and driven late model American cars. They get lousy gas mileage, but they're pretty cheap (relatively speaking) to fix because well up until 2010-ish, they weren't grossly over-designed with finicky modern technology that might save a little gas but wouldn't get you very far. And for some reason, despite the fact that European cars are notoriously unreliable and require oddball knowledge and proprietary | Jun 18 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | parts to fix when they constantly break down, they sell for a ridiculous amount of money even as the owner is desperate to hide thousands of dollars of repairs and get out from under it." | Jun 18 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | You can absolutely do 10,000 mile oil change intervals with a Buick V6. You need to use a good quality full synthetic oil, and check the level and top off if needed, but the myth that only European cars can have long oil change intervals is....a myth. You can go longer than 10,000 miles if you use Euro Synthetic oil in this engine and a really big oil filter with plenty of filtration media. | Jun 18 21:43 |
| DaemonFC | It won't hurt a thing and none of them are in warranty anymore anyway, so it's not like you have to take it in and have them scrutinize what you've been doing like stupid robots looking for a reason to deny your warranty coverage. | Jun 18 21:43 |
| DaemonFC | Many people don't bother to do extremely long OCIs with these cars because they don't make sense anyway anymore. | Jun 18 21:45 |
| DaemonFC | It costs $13 per quart for the oil I use, and the Euro stuff usually ranges between $16.99 and $18.99 per quart. | Jun 18 21:45 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-bytexd.com | What is AlmaLinux - Key Information and Overview | Jun 18 21:46 | |
| DaemonFC | That's one of the reasons why doing a proper oil change that won't sludge up a Euro car is like $150, when you can get a "full synthetic" oil change on an American car at a shop for like $50-60. | Jun 18 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | The Euro stuff adds about $6 per quart at retail, and they have to put like 7 or 8 quarts in a BMW because they leak and burn so much oil that you have to just figure the owner is a retard and won't check it and you put in like 2-3 extra quarts to sacrifice between oil changes so they won't need to top off. | Jun 18 21:47 |
| DaemonFC | You only have to put 4.5 quarts in a Buick 3.8 V6, and most of them don't consume outrageous amounts of oil. They can develop a gasket leak, but you should fix that, not pour oil into it every week or two. | Jun 18 21:48 |
| DaemonFC | Unless it's a very costly gasket leak to fix. Some of them had a slight leak from the exhaust manifold gasket, and that's like an $850 job because it's such a pain to get at, which is an unusual exception. | Jun 18 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | Most of them never leak very much, so the economics favor adding a little oil now and then. | Jun 18 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | The Buick I have was built after GM "improved" the valve cover gaskets on the Impala that were known to leak, so they already had improved gaskets all around from the factory, and many of them simply don't leak like that anymore. | Jun 18 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | I was looking around, and they call it the same engine, but it's really not. | Jun 18 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | They use metal where the Impala had cheap rubber and plastic. | Jun 18 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | It's pretty clear that with the Impala they were trying to hit a price point. | Jun 18 21:52 |
| DaemonFC | When you have to cut $13,000 off the MSRP, something's getting sacrificed. | Jun 18 21:52 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR, It's clear that what they make now is absolute garbage. It is not equal to or better than what it's replacing. | Jun 18 21:53 |
| DaemonFC | But they notice their customers buy it anyway, so no incentive to improve. | Jun 18 21:53 |
| DaemonFC | If anything, they can all collude to go to the shitter together so you have nowhere to turn to. | Jun 18 21:53 |
| DaemonFC | Then a slightly rusty fender 15 years in is going to be the least of your worries. | Jun 18 21:54 |
| DaemonFC | I look around town and people driving stuff a lot newer than my Buick have severe rust problems. | Jun 18 21:54 |
| DaemonFC | Get an $800 car payment and $200 insurance they said. It'll be fun they said! | Jun 18 21:54 |
| DaemonFC | No money left to wash it, so they just let it take a salt bath and don't ever go through the car wash. | Jun 18 21:54 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz_TR, This is what drives idiots into the poorhouse. | Jun 18 21:55 |
| DaemonFC | They buy a brand new car, pay way too much, and then watch it depreciate. And in general, three years later it's not even worth 40% of what they paid for it. What's going on lately is an aberration, and so people take advantage of it to unload crap at high prices that they don't want to deal with. | Jun 18 21:56 |

| DaemonFC | The T-X was mimetic polyalloy over solid endoskeleton with built-in assortments of weaponry. The nanobots it had could only infect other machines and take them over. | Jun 18 22:24 |

| schestowitz_TR | I wrote about wikipedia | Jun 18 22:25 |
| schestowitz_TR | DaemonFC: wanna check? | Jun 18 22:25 |
| DaemonFC | The T-850 managed to shut itself off and reboot, clearing the program that the nanobots infected him with. | Jun 18 22:25 |
| DaemonFC | It seems that the nanobots primarily function by injecting a malicious program, which does not survive a reboot. | Jun 18 22:25 |

| DaemonFC | It seemed to be advanced enough that their personality and understanding of humans survived completely intact, if they didn't go insane. | Jun 18 22:29 |
| DaemonFC | And this allowed them to be better infiltrators because Skynet could simply corrupt their programming to force it to do what it wanted them to, and leave everything else alone. Which is what the T-H was for, but the T-3000s were far more dangerous. | Jun 18 22:30 |

| DaemonFC | And that got sanitized. | Jun 18 22:37 |

| schestowitz_TR | even if you edited it 20 years ago | Jun 18 22:38 |
| schestowitz_TR | it would likely bbe rewritten or edited away by now | Jun 18 22:38 |
| DaemonFC | MP3 is in the public domain, but the companies that made it dangerous to go near until it was technically obsolete anyway are still around and using the same tactics against people who "infringe" on other MPEG codecs, and they set up "license pools" to try to figure out how Opus and AV1 "infringe" so that they can shake people down for things they didn't even come up with specifications for. | Jun 18 22:39 |

| DaemonFC | The dedicated hardware media players are dead and gone, and the expansion of phone storage is heading that way too, to pressure people into the clown. | Jun 18 22:40 |
| DaemonFC | So you have to make the files a lot smaller than where MP3 sounds good, and to do that you really need to go back to original rips (lossless) and make 128k Opus files out of them. | Jun 18 22:40 |
| DaemonFC | You can save something like half the space without compromising anything, vs. ripping to MP3. | Jun 18 22:40 |
| DaemonFC | MP3s on an Android phone were really very little trouble with the cheap cheap price of SD card storage. | Jun 18 22:41 |
| DaemonFC | But they're cutting corners on the phones now and if you want to store any sizable collection of portable music, you need Opus. | Jun 18 22:41 |

| MinceR | 18 232916 < DaemonFC> MinceR, It was the T-5000 that could infect humans and transform them into machines. | Jun 18 22:42 |
| MinceR | so could the Techno-Organic Virus | Jun 18 22:42 |
| DaemonFC | I'm not a programmer, but I can take a look at the MP3 specification documents at a high level and tell you how counterproductive most of it is. | Jun 18 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | It's completely over-designed, and not in a good way. | Jun 18 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | Most people wouldn't ever look at the specifications. They'd just say "Oh yeah, of course you need to use the highest VBR setting or it'll sound really really bad!". | Jun 18 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | So a lot of times the file is more than double the size it needs to be in Opus to sound as good. | Jun 18 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | It's a total mess. | Jun 18 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | And you can take any codec and dial up the bitrate until it sounds or looks good, if you are okay with using a lot of storage. | Jun 18 22:45 |
| DaemonFC | If you give MPEG-4 AVC 4 GB to encode a Blu Ray rip it will look as good as a 2 GB HEVC or AV1 version, but the problem is you've just halved the number of files you can store. | Jun 18 22:46 |
| DaemonFC | There's always going to be value in more efficient compressions, and unfortunately a lot of that reasoning is that manufacturers can cut 25 cents off the price to make an Android phone AND Google wants you to subscribe to things. | Jun 18 22:47 |
| DaemonFC | With the crashing price of flash storage, we should be talking about phones that fit in your pocket and have a terabyte on them. | Jun 18 22:47 |
| DaemonFC | But things are backsliding terribly. | Jun 18 22:47 |
| DaemonFC | When Apple went from hard drive iPods to flash storage iPods I was livid, right? | Jun 18 22:49 |
| DaemonFC | All of a sudden you went from being able to store a virtually unlimited number of MP3s. Like hundreds of thousands, potentially, to like maybe 4,000-5,000? | Jun 18 22:49 |
| DaemonFC | And that didn't even cover a quarter of the number that I really wanted on there. | Jun 18 22:50 |
| DaemonFC | And then here we are 15 years later and the iPhone has as much storage as those shitty 2007 iPods. | Jun 18 22:50 |
| DaemonFC | They're just not very practical, and people ask why I don't have one. It doesn't work with any of the things I use and you more or less have to give up and pay more money to make it do anything, and you never get to stop. | Jun 18 22:51 |
| DaemonFC | I don't even like the idea of a vacuum cleaner that makes me go out and buy bags. | Jun 18 22:52 |
| DaemonFC | Do you really think I'm going to pay $14.99 a month to listen to music or $100 a month to stream things that will be on DVD at the library in like 2 months? | Jun 18 22:52 |
| DaemonFC | Fuck no. | Jun 18 22:52 |
| DaemonFC | They can take those ~$1200-1400 a year subscriptions and cram it up their ass. | Jun 18 22:53 |

| schestowitz_TR | not the features | Jun 18 23:08 |
| DaemonFC | <MinceR> pretty much every other PMP was superior | Jun 18 23:08 |
| DaemonFC | I got one free and just decided to make the best of it. | Jun 18 23:09 |
| DaemonFC | It played MP3s and there was a reversed engineered library to talk to it from Rhythmbox. | Jun 18 23:09 |
| DaemonFC | If you connected it to iTunes, Apple kept flash updating it without asking and then libimobiledevice had to figure it out and you had to wait a while before it worked again, but I never connected it to iTunes, so that didn't affect me. | Jun 18 23:10 |
| DaemonFC | Back then you actually had to make some mistake like that to open up a backdoor into your hardware. The iPod didn't have an Internet connection of its own, so for Apple to go digging around fucking it up for you, you had to connect it to iTunes. | Jun 18 23:10 |
| DaemonFC | So assuming you didn't, the fact that it ran on proprietary software didn't really matter. | Jun 18 23:11 |
| MinceR | its format support was still lacking | Jun 18 23:11 |
| MinceR | and it still needed some software running on a PC to hold its hand so you could feed it files | Jun 18 23:11 |
| DaemonFC | It's like Richard Stallman talking about whether the program inside your coffee maker that changes the brew settings between mild and bold isn't important because nobody updates it. It isn't connected to anything. So it can't hurt you. | Jun 18 23:11 |
| DaemonFC | It's no different, in function, than a physical switch that you turn one way or the other at this point. | Jun 18 23:12 |
| MinceR | even a coffee maker can be poorly designed | Jun 18 23:12 |
| DaemonFC | Well, the Keurig 2.0 could hurt you. | Jun 18 23:12 |
| DaemonFC | It was designed to refuse non-Keurig pods to keep prices high even after their patent expired. | Jun 18 23:12 |
| MinceR | but i prefer simpler coffee brewing methods to espresso anyway | Jun 18 23:12 |
| DaemonFC | It looked for trademarked logos on the lid nobody else could use. | Jun 18 23:12 |
| DaemonFC | So there was this thing called "Freedom Clip" that you could buy that you shoved into the thing and you'd basically just remove the lid from one Keurig pod and stick it into the clip and put that into the coffee machine, and it wouldn't refuse to brew your coffee anymore. | Jun 18 23:13 |

| DaemonFC | It was up to the user to take a lid off a Keurig pod and stick it in there. | Jun 18 23:14 |
| DaemonFC | But the K 2.0 did poorly once people paid like over $200 for the stupid thing and it wouldn't brew their coffee and they went "What the fuck is this? I spent $200 on this goddamned thing?" and word spread, and sales crashed. | Jun 18 23:15 |
| DaemonFC | And that's exactly what should happen to Apple and Microsoft, but they've established that people expect artificial malfunctions in their computer that only serve to make the company an endless stream of money. | Jun 18 23:15 |
| DaemonFC | When a coffee maker did it, it was new for coffee makers and so people didn't accept it. | Jun 18 23:16 |
| DaemonFC | Here's part of this next post: | Jun 18 23:23 |
| DaemonFC | "The smartest person who ever lived was not Albert Einstein. Einstein figured out laws of physics and theoretical physics that are still in place and widely accepted today, and that's brilliant, but the smartest person to ever live was the person who convinced Americans to get rid of public transit and buy oil, gas, car payments, and trips to the muffler shop." | Jun 18 23:23 |
| DaemonFC | "In so doing, turning a bunch of backwards barbarian thugs like the Russians and Saudis into people who can hold our entire economy hostage." | Jun 18 23:24 |
| DaemonFC | "The problem of what to do about transportation costs isn't going away, and neither is oil and gasoline. Electric Vehicles may take some market share, but right now there's hardly a place to charge them, and it's another Robin Hood in Reverse, because rich people plugging them in take advantage of the tax breaks and low electric rates that poorer people have to foot the bill for." | Jun 18 23:26 |
| DaemonFC | "When the dust settles, I also don't believe that Tesla will be around selling and servicing them, because it was losing money and propped up by dwindling tax incentives and CAFE credits that real car companies are sick of paying, and realizing that they can convert their luxury brands over to electric and offset their gasoline markets, and quit paying Elon Musk.
