[00:01]	psydruid	the worst thing is these companies producing and nothing tying up so many resources that could be used for doing useful things
[00:10]	DaemonFC	It's expensive to have so many unproductives around.
[00:10]	DaemonFC	But spending the savings on something else that isn't going anywhere ("AI") is also bad.

[00:28]	psydruid	maybe they shouldn't hire so many people then and allow other companies to hire them instead
[00:28]	psydruid	that's going to be inevitable as Microsoft faces its demise
[00:28]	psydruid	but Google and friends are in the same boat
[00:34]	DaemonFC	Microsoft has cut everything to the bone. But how many people do you really need to add crapware to Chrome?
[00:34]	DaemonFC	Pretty much the only thing that rides on top of Chromium in Edge is Microsoft spyware, Microsoft's ad network, and nag screens that detect when you're looking at any other browser.
[00:36]	DaemonFC	Did Maxthon make a Linux release?
[00:36]	DaemonFC	I do have a habit of collecting Web browsers.
[00:40]	DaemonFC	heh
[00:40]	DaemonFC	Linux.com wrote blogspam about it then they quit releasing a Linux port a month or so later.
[00:42]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: Elon Twitler blocked Pale Moon.
[00:42]	DaemonFC	There's a new UA shim to make Twitter work again.
[00:46]	DaemonFC	I stopped using Google Search especially. It's completely pozzed.
[00:47]	DaemonFC	20 years ago it was much better than it is now. It just showed you whatever you were looking for.
[00:47]	DaemonFC	Now it's a wing of the Democratic Party.
[00:47]	DaemonFC	There's certainly a "Twitter Files" lurking inside of Google.
[00:48]	DaemonFC	But you won't ever see it because Elon Musk isn't rich enough to buy Google and tell you all of the nasty shit it's doing everytime Biden or his lapdog Little Adam Shit, Congresscritter (D-CA) email them saying take that shit off the goddamn internet.
[00:49]	DaemonFC	I don't know why Roy is so focused on showing Google is "winning" over Bing. They're worse than Bing!
[00:51]	MinceR	how are they worse than bng though?
[00:51]	MinceR	is occasionally getting a relevant search result worse than not getting any?
[00:52]	DaemonFC	I mix in Bing with Google.
[00:53]	parsifal	DaemonFC: have you tried searx?
[00:53]	DaemonFC	Does Microsoft get a free pass from all the illegal shit the government and the crazies themselves normally do for not delisting the shit that drives the crazies nuts.
[00:56]	DaemonFC	I always wondered what I'd have to do in order to be able to get away with anything I wanted to do and not be punished, however having my testicles cut off and put in a jar in someone's refrigerator and then showing up dressed as a woman petting a little dog while facing charges (which will be dropped for obvious reasons) of violating an OOP and kicking in someone's front door isn't really where I want my life going.

[00:57]	DaemonFC	That dog is in horrible danger. Does that county not have animal protective services?
[00:57]	DaemonFC	They need to rescue it because if this person is kicking people's doors in and violating protective orders, they should not be allowed to own small animals.
[00:57]	DaemonFC	Eventually he'll get mad and take it out on a helpless little dog.
[00:58]	DaemonFC	I mean it's so obvious what's coming.
[00:59]	DaemonFC	People with no emotional regulation at all will eventually take it out on animals, and other people.
[00:59]	DaemonFC	They usually START with animals, and then when nothing much happens about it, they "graduate".

[01:04]	DaemonFC	Telling Americans that bombs will be dropped on people in Gaza not only doesn't generate any negative sentiment among the voters.
[01:04]	DaemonFC	It makes them more fond of where their tax money is going to.
[01:05]	DaemonFC	Of course one of the right yield could scorch every inch of it and get all of the terrorists at once. But it's too inefficient that way. The defense industry needs a protracted conflict.
[01:06]	MinceR	:>
[01:07]	DaemonFC	There's really not that many Biden votes to be lost anyway with the Gaza shit.

[01:09]	DaemonFC	Her entire purpose was to get Donald Trump elected.

[02:01]	TR Bot	 NewsWaffle: CNN gemi.dev
[02:01]	DaemonFC	> The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York condemned the funeral of a trans activist that was held last week in St. Patricks Cathedral, expressing outrage over what it called scandalous behavior.
[02:02]	DaemonFC	> More than 1,000 people filled the pews of the revered New York cathedral on February 15 to honor the legendary trans activist Cecilia Gentili, who died on February 6 at 52. Gentili was a pillar of New Yorks trans community, as well as a fierce advocate for sex workers and people with HIV/AIDS. Though she grew up attending Catholic services in her home country of Argentina, she was also an avowed atheist.
[02:02]	DaemonFC	> Friends and family members of Gentili characterized last weeks service as iconic and historic, with funeral organizers saying they believed Gentili was the first trans person to have a funeral at the cathedral. Mourners showed up in feathery red dresses, fishnet stockings and lace veils, and the community prayed for God to protect trans people with health care and housing. In one eulogy, Gentili a former sex worker was 
[02:02]	DaemonFC	remembered as Saint Cecilia. Mother of all whores.
[02:04]	DaemonFC	> The Cathedral only knew that family and friends were requesting a funeral Mass for a Catholic, and had no idea our welcome and prayer would be degraded in such a sacrilegious and deceptive way, Rev. Enrique Salvo, the rector at St. Patricks Cathedral, said in a statement over the weekend.
[02:04]	DaemonFC	> That such a scandal occurred at Americas Parish Church makes it worse; that it took place as Lent was beginning, the annual forty-day struggle with the forces of sin and darkness, is a potent reminder of how much we need prayer, reparation, repentance, grace, and mercy to which this holy season invites us.
[02:04]	DaemonFC	> Rev. Salvo added that the cathedral offered a mass of reparation at the direction of Cardinal Timothy Dolan to atone for the funeral.
[02:05]	DaemonFC	----
[02:05]	DaemonFC	MinceR: You know how I feel about the trannies but the Catholics are worse.
[02:05]	DaemonFC	So I'm VERY amused by this.
[02:09]	DaemonFC	The Catholics got trolled into having a funeral mass for a tranny atheist prostitute. In attendance were a bunch of classless degenerate weirdos who don't even know how to conduct themselves or dress at a funeral. Then when the muckity mucks found out they had another mass to cleanse the church of the abomination that had just taken place.
[02:09]	DaemonFC	What is going on?
[02:10]	DaemonFC	MinceR: First the testicles tranny and now this.
[02:10]	MinceR	lol
[02:10]	DaemonFC	I mean, Carlin said it best. When you're born into the world you get a ticket to the freak show. When you're born in America you get front row seats.
[02:11]	MinceR	:>
[02:11]	DaemonFC	MinceR: This could have only gotten funnier if on the other side of the aisle there were a bunch of people in their fursuits.
[02:12]	MinceR	Need for Speed: Hot Fursuit

[02:23]	DaemonFC	Of course, you can't make the Catholics much worse. Pedos who embezzle people's pensions to pay hush money and to move the Priest who only speaks English to Argentina in the middle of the night. Buying bus tickets to California for people wanted for beating up cops in New York.
[02:24]	DaemonFC	So their anger towards being deceived into that funeral is a little hypocritical I think.
[02:26]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Although I do wonder if we're seeing so many trannies lately because this is what happens to people who age into adulthood after being preyed on by a priest.
[02:26]	DaemonFC	Is rejection of the penis a symptom of carrying around "The priest touched me there and I was just a child?"
[02:26]	DaemonFC	I don't know. I mean I'll never know.

[02:49]	DaemonFC	"You say quit using Chrome now because Google sells the data to anyone including prosecutors hostile to abortion and LGBT groups. I never used Chrome. We are not the same." How are we not the same? Well, for starters, they don't have reams and reams of data that I gave them in the past 16 years to sell to those groups.
[02:49]	DaemonFC	And anyone who used Chrome will never get Google to destroy the data it collected.
[02:49]	DaemonFC	So there's that.

[02:50]	DaemonFC	I hope having a browser that loads Discord 0.03 seconds faster was worth the mountain of data Google sells to the prosecutor about your abortion.
[02:51]	DaemonFC	Chrome has an even worse problem than having a lot of security vulnerabilities, although it does have a lot of those too.
[02:51]	DaemonFC	It's malware itself. If you have Chrome you already have malware. Game over, man. Game over.
[02:52]	DaemonFC	Some of their source code is interesting but it needs to be properly peer reviewed and moved over to a browser that isn't attacking you at the application level.
[02:53]	DaemonFC	Some of their fuzz testers are interesting, but same deal. Don't use them to help Google. Use them to help someone that deserves it. Like WebkitGTK or Pale Moon.
[02:54]	DaemonFC	WebkitGTK is only worth reporting security problems in because you can at least use Webkit as Free Software. Everything in Google Chromium/Blink (same thing) is tied into Google in thousands of ways that are not at all easy to go in and shut down. It's a very very nasty piece of work, Chromium.
[02:55]	DaemonFC	There's a lot of work going into neutering these nasty pieces of code, but something almost always slips past anyway because Chromium changes faster than you can inspect the changes.
[02:56]	DaemonFC	Pale Moon does work on a Chromebook.

[22:29]	arkanian	The statistics on that would be quite interesting
[22:29]	arkanian	My personal opinion is that the Tor over VPN users would be watched the most
[22:30]	DaemonFC	How do you stand out when you use Tor over a VPN?
[22:30]	arkanian	Because you're using Tor on VPN
[22:30]	DaemonFC	It hides your real IP address from the Entry Node.
[22:30]	arkanian	It would be rather trivial for the NSA to watch that shit
[22:30]	DaemonFC	That should protect you from a catastrophic situation where you get the malicious entry *and* exit, right?
[22:31]	arkanian	I don't really trust VPN, it seems like an NSA target
[22:31]	DaemonFC	Since the NSA and their partners operate at least most of the exits, the situation is probably likely to eventually happen.
[22:31]	DaemonFC	Tor Browser itself is probably one big honeypot.
[22:31]	arkanian	If you're using a VPN, 8 eyes are likely in some position to monitor you
[22:32]	DaemonFC	So they're not in position to monitor you if you're using your AT&T DSL without the VPN?
[22:32]	DaemonFC	:)
[22:32]	arkanian	You should play it safe and assume you're always being monitored
[22:33]	DaemonFC	The only way I can think of a VPN making this worse is the NSA can say it incidentally collected your traffic because using a foreign server.
[22:33]	MinceR	https://iconspng.com/images/you-are-being-monitored/you-are-being-monitored.jpg
[22:33]	arkanian	Personally, I aim to be the needle in a haystack
[22:33]	DaemonFC	The disasters are not really the VPN as much as it is CloudFlare, which is almost certainly a pet project of the NSA/CIA/FBI.
[22:34]	DaemonFC	And they give it out for "free" and people are hosting all kinds of illegal shit and using CloudFlare.
