| IsambardPrince | MinceR, "America's high standard of living combined with its permanent threat of unemployment is enough to make any man's life miserable." Google captioned this "permanent threat of UN employment". | Feb 20 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| IsambardPrince | :D | Feb 20 00:06 |
| IsambardPrince | Their captioning of the Battle of Endor was the best one ever. | Feb 20 00:06 |
| IsambardPrince | :D | Feb 20 00:06 |
| MinceR | lol | Feb 20 00:08 |
| MinceR | how did they caption that? | Feb 20 00:08 |
| IsambardPrince | "In no country where the standard of living is as high are jobs so tenuous, in no other country where the unemployment rate is comparable are the demands made by the standard of living so high" | Feb 20 00:08 |
| IsambardPrince | You know, for a woman born in Argentina who became German, this woman knew a lot about America. | Feb 20 00:08 |
| MinceR | i mean, the Battle of Endor | Feb 20 00:10 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, Oh right. | Feb 20 00:10 |

| IsambardPrince | oh crap! pretty bad to jump into hyperspace! | Feb 20 00:11 |

| MinceR | we'll see if Linux shits itself because i'm trying to watch a video | Feb 20 00:12 |
| IsambardPrince | How could they be cheering us if they don't know we're coming! | Feb 20 00:13 |
| IsambardPrince | :D | Feb 20 00:13 |
| MinceR | :D | Feb 20 00:15 |
| IsambardPrince | Sure, in a minute! But now, come on handle, but it don't let me down! The shield is down! Kotaku! | Feb 20 00:18 |
| IsambardPrince | "Sir, we've lost our bridge deflector shield!" "Intensify the forward batteries, I don't want anything to get through! INTENSIFY FORWARD FIREPOWER!" "Too late!" "AAAAAHHHHHH!" | Feb 20 00:21 |
| IsambardPrince | No mistake, just a good scene. | Feb 20 00:21 |
| IsambardPrince | Just a really good scene. | Feb 20 00:21 |
| IsambardPrince | "Who's the freak away from the desktop!" -Admiral Ackbar. | Feb 20 00:23 |
| IsambardPrince | :D | Feb 20 00:23 |
| IsambardPrince | Apparently he got a job as a manager at Wells Fargo halfway into the battle. | Feb 20 00:23 |
| IsambardPrince | In America, a man's salary is a yardstick of his self-worth. America is the only place on Earth where a badly paid professor is a bad professor and a poorly paid writer is a bad writer. For the Latin American Male, masculinity is still associated primarily with sexual potency, for the American male, however, the association is directly with money." | Feb 20 00:34 |
| IsambardPrince | Well that explains a lot. | Feb 20 00:34 |
| IsambardPrince | That probably explains why Latin American men are always trying to have sex with someone and it doesn't much matter who it is. | Feb 20 00:34 |
| IsambardPrince | It doesn't matter as much if you're broke, most of them are broke. What matters is you are virile and able to attract more sex partners than the other men. | Feb 20 00:35 |
| MinceR | also explains why merkins are going stupider and crazier every year | Feb 20 00:35 |
| MinceR | and why they lead the world in worshipping the craziest sociopaths they can find | Feb 20 00:35 |
| IsambardPrince | If you think about it, what other system could there be for men to compete in Communist countries like Cuba or Venezuela, or poverty stricken ones like Mexico or Argentina? | Feb 20 00:36 |
| MinceR | i thought they weren't supposed to even want to compete? | Feb 20 00:36 |
| IsambardPrince | Every society has its hypocrisies. In America, people are taught that you need to revere God, but also that money is your God. | Feb 20 00:38 |
| IsambardPrince | In LatAm countries, you're taught that nothing is more important than your family, while meanwhile you have as many women on the side as possible or you're not very manly. | Feb 20 00:38 |
| MinceR | :> | Feb 20 00:38 |
| IsambardPrince | When John Carpenter did They Live! and the guy puts on the sunglasses, and money is just a blank piece of paper that said THIS IS YOUR GOD, I laughed. | Feb 20 00:38 |
| IsambardPrince | "An American man only knows that happiness comes through a woman, and women are expensive. As a young man, he pays in advance, as an older man he pays in installments, and as a corpse he is cashed in for a fortune." | Feb 20 00:40 |
| IsambardPrince | Earlier on she mentioned the habit of women taking out huge life insurance policies on men which just means when you finally die after a lifetime in slavery to them, they become even wealthier, to the point where they don't even need to replace you. | Feb 20 00:41 |
| IsambardPrince | Like Maricel took out a huge life insurance policy on Mark. | Feb 20 00:41 |
| IsambardPrince | When he has a heart attack from trying to pay her credit cards, mortgages, and car payments, she'll get a check for over a million dollars, and use part of it to pay off all the debt she killed him with, with plenty left over. | Feb 20 00:42 |
| IsambardPrince | And she'll have the house and stuff he worked for, which killed jim. | Feb 20 00:42 |
| IsambardPrince | *him | Feb 20 00:42 |
| IsambardPrince | The only thing a woman knows how to do well is burrow and spend money. | Feb 20 00:43 |
| IsambardPrince | She'll throw him in the cold, cold ground and then fail to control her tear ducts for a while for sympathy, then cash him out. | Feb 20 00:44 |
| IsambardPrince | "51% of American men believe that the situation for white American women is as bad as it is for black American men." Oh my. | Feb 20 00:46 |
| IsambardPrince | White American women have the lowest poverty rate of any group in the nation. | Feb 20 00:47 |
| IsambardPrince | They are less than 1% of death row inmates. | Feb 20 00:47 |
| IsambardPrince | In fact, the federal government has only killed 3 of them since 1974, and two were under Donald Trump. | Feb 20 00:47 |
| IsambardPrince | And we all know why. If anyone heard that the execution of a white woman was botched and she was flopping around screaming for help, the death sentence would be gone by noon tomorrow. | Feb 20 00:48 |
| IsambardPrince | Men are disposable. Black men are 50 times more disposable than white men. | Feb 20 00:49 |
| IsambardPrince | Society has made the decision, there's no sense yelling at me about it. | Feb 20 00:49 |
| IsambardPrince | Society assumes that white men have to work, it assumes that black men do no work and live on the wrong side of the ledger anyway. | Feb 20 00:50 |
| IsambardPrince | So if one gets accused of a death sentence offense, then they're more likely to receive it. | Feb 20 00:50 |
| IsambardPrince | One of the leading causes of homophobia is a rejection of men who don't place high priority on slaving away for women, or consumerism. | Feb 20 00:51 |
| nobody | how's this related to homophobia? | Feb 20 00:52 |
| IsambardPrince | The reason why the American Express Gold Card has 33% more interest and the annual fee is more than triple while it generates half the value in rewards points, is women will choose it because it's gold and made of metal and the advertising is designed to look elegant. | Feb 20 00:52 |
| IsambardPrince | The Blue Cash Preferred generates twice as many points in practical categories, with a relatively humble fee, and is blue. | Feb 20 00:53 |
| nobody | IsambardPrince: yet yow's this related to homophobia? | Feb 20 00:53 |
| IsambardPrince | It emphasizes a Centurion. | Feb 20 00:53 |
| IsambardPrince | The advertising is done to men. | Feb 20 00:53 |
| IsambardPrince | nobody, A rejection of women, who are the main reason men need money, is frowned upon. | Feb 20 00:54 |
| IsambardPrince | It's not the act of gay sex in particular. | Feb 20 00:54 |
| IsambardPrince | If men started pairing up in droves, the economy would crash. | Feb 20 00:54 |
| IsambardPrince | Our needs are modest. | Feb 20 00:54 |
| IsambardPrince | When you get a woman and a man, the woman will spend like a drunken sailor and force the man to work two jobs to pay for it. | Feb 20 00:55 |
| IsambardPrince | She will produce children, and force the man to pay to create two more future workers. | Feb 20 00:55 |
| IsambardPrince | All of this is good for the business cycle. | Feb 20 00:55 |
| IsambardPrince | When two men get together, at almost any income level, savings rate increases, consumption is limited, there are no children. | Feb 20 00:55 |
| IsambardPrince | This is bad for business. The only way business benefits is that the men have fewer "distractions", but they lose control because the men don't need the money as badly. | Feb 20 00:56 |
| nobody | busiess is a little unspecific, and confusing productivity with consumption | Feb 20 00:57 |
| IsambardPrince | Productivity and consumption are connected, albeit not directly. | Feb 20 00:57 |
| nobody | if many children were good for business, india and africa would be richest continents, followed by afghanistan | Feb 20 00:57 |
| IsambardPrince | The economy always values producing more trash than any rational society would even know what to do with. | Feb 20 00:57 |
| IsambardPrince | You earn the salary producing garbage then women buy the garbage, and you have to go produce more garbage to pay for that garbage. | Feb 20 00:58 |
| IsambardPrince | nobody, India and Africa are corrupt and poverty stricken. | Feb 20 00:58 |
| IsambardPrince | When you FLOOD the system with kids, most of them starve. | Feb 20 00:58 |
| IsambardPrince | Or die of disease. | Feb 20 00:59 |
| IsambardPrince | Everyone is poor. | Feb 20 00:59 |
| nobody | EU is corrupt too | Feb 20 00:59 |
| IsambardPrince | Industrial society needs 2.1 children per couple. | Feb 20 00:59 |
| nobody | population in germany almost doubled since WW2 | Feb 20 00:59 |
| nobody | economy could flourish with half of that | Feb 20 01:00 |
| IsambardPrince | The United States produces 1.4 children per couple. The government here is racist and trying to deport young workers who came in to pay for my parents to be on Social Security. | Feb 20 01:00 |
| IsambardPrince | So we will now get a population crash and an aging crisis. | Feb 20 01:00 |
| nobody | i don't think so | Feb 20 01:00 |
| nobody | USA population size increases, significantly | Feb 20 01:00 |
| IsambardPrince | Yeah, my parents voted for that. | Feb 20 01:00 |
| IsambardPrince | The population in the US only rises due to immigration. Without immigration, it collapses. | Feb 20 01:01 |
| IsambardPrince | My parents are too short-sighted to see that they'll probably live to see the destruction they have caused. | Feb 20 01:01 |
| IsambardPrince | They're not immune from Trump. If they get a 30% Social Security cut, then that won't be comfortable obviously. | Feb 20 01:02 |
| IsambardPrince | If he was targeting criminals, then that would be good. Everyone wants them out of here as fast as possible. But this is indiscriminate and stupid,. | Feb 20 01:03 |
| nobody | alot of crime is produced domestically | Feb 20 01:03 |
| IsambardPrince | Because, to my parents, anyone brown is a criminal and rapes kids. | Feb 20 01:03 |
| IsambardPrince | That's what Fox "News" tells them. That and their stupid cell phone. They turned into my grandmother. They close themselves in and watch this shit while their brains turn into jello. | Feb 20 01:04 |

| IsambardPrince | <nobody> alot of crime is produced domestically | Feb 20 01:18 |
| IsambardPrince | Yes, because of a lack of education, mental healthcare, and employment opportunities mainly, and unrestricted gun access. | Feb 20 01:18 |
| IsambardPrince | They lead you to a mental breakdown and then sell you a gun. That's why there's so many shootings in this country. | Feb 20 01:19 |
| nobody | in germany it's corruption, murderous corruption, that produced domestic terror | Feb 20 01:19 |
| nobody | we've got social security for immigrants, their children sent to school, highly paid industrial jobs | Feb 20 01:20 |
| nobody | and, within cities, foreigners/immigrants are the overwhelming majority often, 90% round about | Feb 20 01:21 |
| nobody | anyway, i've just had my dosage of anger again; usual routine, while i'm sleeping, speeding cars and noise for a few hours | Feb 20 01:21 |

| nobody | wouldn't suprise me if some new arrivals of immigrants expected the typical energy prizing of their countries of origin | Feb 20 01:24 |
| nobody | and then "renewable energy carbon tax" hits them | Feb 20 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | Mom: This $400 Kirby vacuum cleaner mother gave me stinks. I won't find out what's wrong with it. <name of my brother>!!! Set this out on the curb and put a "FREE" sign on it. I'd better go buy a vacuum. | Feb 20 01:24 |
| nobody | i don't know, can't ask all of them, but whenever speeding and noise boil up, they're celebrating something | Feb 20 01:25 |
| IsambardPrince | Oh that's an easy one here. | Feb 20 01:25 |
| IsambardPrince | Mexican Independence Day | Feb 20 01:25 |
| IsambardPrince | They fire guns into the air, set off illegal fireworks, lots of muffler noise, littering, traffic jams. | Feb 20 01:26 |

| IsambardPrince | By leaps and bounds. | Feb 20 01:28 |

| MinceR | yet. | Feb 20 01:30 |
| IsambardPrince | It may not get to that point. | Feb 20 01:30 |

| IsambardPrince | For now that's just "send them elsewhere". | Feb 20 01:31 |
| MinceR | the public is being manipulated | Feb 20 01:31 |
| MinceR | that's how you ended up with orange mussolini in the first place. | Feb 20 01:32 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, Thought about test driving a cybertruck and using it to pull down the Italo Balbo monument. | Feb 20 01:33 |
| IsambardPrince | It was just a thought. | Feb 20 01:33 |
| MinceR | who's italo balbo? | Feb 20 01:33 |

| IsambardPrince | I think it would be great if someone toppled it. | Feb 20 01:35 |
| MinceR | indeed | Feb 20 01:35 |
| IsambardPrince | It may actually make the news. I'm sure whoever did it would be arrested however. | Feb 20 01:38 |
| IsambardPrince | "Chicago Man topples Roman Column. Burns fascist's name off monument with thermite." | Feb 20 01:39 |
| IsambardPrince | It would be a different headline than usual. | Feb 20 01:39 |

| IsambardPrince | I suppose Breaking Bad has the dynamic portrayed in The Manipulated Man. | Feb 20 01:44 |
| IsambardPrince | Walter White works hard to build his drug empire, his wife finds out, says she's shocked, shocked and horrified, then steals the money he was going to leave his family after he dies of cancer, to hide the tax frauds committed by the man she's sleeping with on the side. | Feb 20 01:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Instead of going to the police, or becoming complicit and helping her husband in his endeavors, she uses his hard work to further her own corruption and try to fix a man that is so deeply flawed that nobody in their right mind, only a woman, would want him. | Feb 20 01:46 |
| IsambardPrince | All of the Breaking Bad fandom hates Skyler White, and they should. But most of them don't realize, she's portraying the part of a woman pretty well. | Feb 20 01:47 |
| IsambardPrince | Walter's behavior as a drug manufacturer can at least be rationalized. People will find and use drugs. He might as well be the one who makes the money. But Skyler betrays and hurts her entire family, and throws what Walt is doing for them away to do what she thinks will make herself happy. | Feb 20 01:49 |
| IsambardPrince | When Ted (the guy who has the tax fraud and Skyler is cheating with) trips over the rug, breaks his neck, and ends up being paralyzed for the rest of his life, I admit I enjoyed that scene. That's what should have happened to Brian, my mom's ex-husband. | Feb 20 01:50 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.nbcnews.com | New ICE data shows administration isn’t just arresting criminals | Feb 20 02:04 | |
| nobody | seems not much has changed in recent 3 years, which was the last time i synced portage tree | Feb 20 02:05 |
| IsambardPrince | "The Trump administration has promised to prioritize the “worst first” when it comes to arrests and deportations, but the number of detainees in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody without a criminal conviction or pending criminal charges increased by more than 1,800 in the first two weeks of February, representing 41% of the 4,422 total new detainees in that period, according to new data obtained by NBC News. | Feb 20 02:05 |
| IsambardPrince | During federal fiscal year 2024, the Biden administration made 113,431 immigration arrests, and of those, only 28% were of people who had no criminal convictions or pending criminal charges. | Feb 20 02:05 |
| IsambardPrince | Asked for comment on the data, Tricia McLaughlin, a Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman, said immigrants without criminal records are often “far from innocent” but declined to provide further data." | Feb 20 02:05 |

| nobody | it's mostly llvm/clang/c17/c23 stuff that got merged, a few ebuilds switched to cmake instead of autotools, nothing relevant, it's only annoying | Feb 20 02:06 |
| IsambardPrince | "According to the data, only 13% of those currently in ICE detention are on track for “expedited removal,” a designation indicating they can be deported without having a court hearing. The remaining 87% are facing deportation proceedings which could last for months or even years. | Feb 20 02:06 |
| IsambardPrince | Immigration courts are facing a backlog of 3.6 million cases and, as a result, some pending cases may not be heard for years. At least 16,000 current ICE detainees have notices to appear in court, which means they are waiting for a court date." | Feb 20 02:06 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, Trump fired 20 immigration judges. | Feb 20 02:06 |
| IsambardPrince | Each one could hear an average of 700 cases per year. | Feb 20 02:06 |
| IsambardPrince | So this reduced the capacity by 14,000 cases per year. | Feb 20 02:06 |
| IsambardPrince | There was no indication that they were particularly biased for or against immigrants at the hearings. | Feb 20 02:07 |
| IsambardPrince | It was "DOGE". | Feb 20 02:07 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, So there will be 14,000 more immigrant removal cases piling up costing a lot more than the salaries of the judges. | Feb 20 02:07 |
| IsambardPrince | And almost all those cases would have ended in a removal. | Feb 20 02:08 |
| IsambardPrince | Each year. | Feb 20 02:08 |
| IsambardPrince | DOGE is just stupidly firing people then realizing what it did later. | Feb 20 02:08 |
| nobody | even then it would take ~500 years | Feb 20 02:08 |
| IsambardPrince | Last week they accidentally fired 400 people who maintain nuclear bombs. | Feb 20 02:08 |
| IsambardPrince | Then tried calling them back. | Feb 20 02:08 |
| IsambardPrince | This week it was the entire team at CDC trying to prevent the spread of bird flu. | Feb 20 02:09 |
| IsambardPrince | Then they tried calling them back. | Feb 20 02:09 |
| IsambardPrince | nobody, There's over 400 immigration judges. | Feb 20 02:09 |
| IsambardPrince | But that's not the point. | Feb 20 02:09 |
| IsambardPrince | We need more, so why are they firing them? | Feb 20 02:09 |
| nobody | you just said it, they're facing a "backlog of 3.6 million". which shouldn't exist after all? | Feb 20 02:11 |
| nobody | if they had done their job? | Feb 20 02:11 |
| IsambardPrince | Each case takes time. | Feb 20 02:12 |
| IsambardPrince | And there are regulations, laws, and facts of each case to consider. | Feb 20 02:12 |
| nobody | of cause | Feb 20 02:12 |
| IsambardPrince | The government says basically "We want to remove him because reasons." | Feb 20 02:12 |
| nobody | i am only aware of how this is abused for political bargain, in germany | Feb 20 02:13 |
| IsambardPrince | And the judge asks you and your attorney what you have to say for yourself and why you should be allowed to stay. | Feb 20 02:13 |
| IsambardPrince | Then you say "Because of this law or that reason or they'll skin me alive if I go back to my country!" | Feb 20 02:13 |
| IsambardPrince | And the judge considers everything and decides. | Feb 20 02:13 |
| IsambardPrince | And 80-90% of the time, you get an order of removal. | Feb 20 02:13 |
| IsambardPrince | But not always. | Feb 20 02:13 |
| nobody | ahead of the election, one(!) flight was scheduled to send ~30 migrants back to afghanistan/usbekistan, while there was varying numbers of who knows 1million cases or seomething in germany | Feb 20 02:14 |
| nobody | subject to "psychological care" taken and similar | Feb 20 02:14 |
| IsambardPrince | Right, there's a legal process to be removed from the US. | Feb 20 02:14 |
| IsambardPrince | Even if they know for sure you're here illegally and never got inspected on the way in. | Feb 20 02:14 |
| IsambardPrince | The first time it happens, it's not even a crime. | Feb 20 02:14 |
| IsambardPrince | It's onyl a crime if it happens a second or subsequent time. | Feb 20 02:15 |
| nobody | the afghan body builder social influencer guy that smashed a car into verdi labor union protesters, did receive a legal permit to stay, although his request for asylum was rejected | Feb 20 02:15 |
| nobody | he to had a permission to work, which he did | Feb 20 02:15 |
| IsambardPrince | If you get a final order of removal, then what happens is you have 30 days to leave, and sometimes they release you and let you go on your own. | Feb 20 02:15 |
| IsambardPrince | If you don't appear or leave on your own then you're wanted. | Feb 20 02:15 |
| IsambardPrince | Trump's main obstacle here is the Immigration and Nationality Act sort of is pretty lax on removals. | Feb 20 02:16 |
| IsambardPrince | It's not like ICE catches you and just throws you right out, usually. | Feb 20 02:16 |
| nobody | no judge nor court in germany would have issued an order to leave the country to this afghan body builder | Feb 20 02:16 |
| nobody | yet, see what happened | Feb 20 02:16 |
| IsambardPrince | nobody, There's a bunch of people with final removal orders that just disappeared somewhere into the country. | Feb 20 02:17 |
| IsambardPrince | They'll have much easier time finding them and throwing them right the hell out than worrying about people without a date to see the judge yet. | Feb 20 02:17 |
| IsambardPrince | Those are the easiest ones because the decision was made. | Feb 20 02:18 |
| IsambardPrince | If they catch one that hasn't seen the judge yet, it may take between 3 and 7 years to get them to the judge. | Feb 20 02:19 |
| IsambardPrince | Trump may not even still be there when they do. | Feb 20 02:19 |
| IsambardPrince | Until then, ICE will have to release most of them into the country and require periodic check-ins. | Feb 20 02:19 |
| nobody | in germany they receive "social security" | Feb 20 02:19 |
| IsambardPrince | So the ones that haven't been caught, processed, and put in the queue have the best chance of outlastic Trump. | Feb 20 02:20 |
| IsambardPrince | They need to stay hidden as long as possible. | Feb 20 02:20 |
| IsambardPrince | Because the queue is FIFO. | Feb 20 02:20 |
| nobody | only if their "country of origin" agreed to welcome the migrant back home, social security is cut down to zero | Feb 20 02:20 |
| IsambardPrince | That means low profile and letting ICE catch others. | Feb 20 02:20 |
| IsambardPrince | Don't hang out at places ICE will monitor. | Feb 20 02:20 |
| IsambardPrince | Don't be near people with criminal records or pending charges. | Feb 20 02:21 |
| nobody | yet, since most countries refuse to take back their citizens, germany has to pay | Feb 20 02:21 |
| IsambardPrince | nobody, We threatened to invade Panama. | Feb 20 02:21 |
| IsambardPrince | So far they took 500 people who are from various countries that are not Panama. | Feb 20 02:21 |
| IsambardPrince | Stuck them in a hotel under armed guard. | Feb 20 02:21 |
| IsambardPrince | Two have tried to commit suicide so far. | Feb 20 02:21 |
| nobody | 500, there's 3.6 million cases in USA you said | Feb 20 02:21 |
| IsambardPrince | They build a camp in the jungle for them. | Feb 20 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | No, no. | Feb 20 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | You don't get it. | Feb 20 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | The 500 were from countries where it's unstable and hard to send people back to. | Feb 20 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | Only they go to Panama. | Feb 20 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | Or Mexico. | Feb 20 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | We dump people in Mexico that aren't Mexican all the time. | Feb 20 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | Several planes land in India now per week each with about 120 people being deported to India. | Feb 20 02:23 |
| IsambardPrince | That's just India. | Feb 20 02:23 |
| IsambardPrince | We're just not having it anymore. | Feb 20 02:23 |
| IsambardPrince | They come here they break our laws, they sell drugs to little kids. | Feb 20 02:23 |
| MinceR | when is vivek ramaswamy going? | Feb 20 02:23 |
| IsambardPrince | Those Indian gas stations with the drugs. | Feb 20 02:23 |
| IsambardPrince | Someone's relative comes here illegally and works the cash register. | Feb 20 02:24 |
| IsambardPrince | Sells drugs to little kids. | Feb 20 02:24 |
| MinceR | and when are satan's nutella and sundar pichai going? | Feb 20 02:24 |
| IsambardPrince | They're not from the wrong caste, MinceR | Feb 20 02:24 |
| MinceR | of course | Feb 20 02:24 |
| IsambardPrince | Poor Indians go back. | Feb 20 02:24 |
| IsambardPrince | Rich ones stay. | Feb 20 02:24 |
| IsambardPrince | Basically if their job is cleaning human shit in India, we deport them. | Feb 20 02:25 |
| MinceR | i'm guessing that means the one whose name sounds like farts and who fucked up goolag search also stays | Feb 20 02:25 |
| IsambardPrince | If their job is ruining American companies and extracting wealth for themselves, they stay here. | Feb 20 02:25 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, The Catholic Church hired an Indian woman when mom worked there. | Feb 20 02:27 |
| *SomeGoat has quit (connection closed) | Feb 20 02:27 | |
| IsambardPrince | They caught her taking a shit in the parking lot. | Feb 20 02:27 |
| IsambardPrince | You can't even teach some of them to use a flush toilet. | Feb 20 02:27 |
| IsambardPrince | I would suggest rolling up a newspaper and hitting them on the nose. | Feb 20 02:28 |
| IsambardPrince | But... | Feb 20 02:28 |
| IsambardPrince | You know like a dog that wipes its ass on the carpet. | Feb 20 02:28 |
| MinceR | lol | Feb 20 02:40 |

| IsambardPrince | <@MinceR> i do wonder if this is what the idiots in the MUGU caps were expecting when they voted to end the republic, though. | Feb 20 03:23 |
| IsambardPrince | <@MinceR> or whether they even remember now what they were expecting back then. | Feb 20 03:23 |
| IsambardPrince | Mom says she voted for him because "Kamala hired Oprah and didn't tell us what her plan was". | Feb 20 03:23 |
| IsambardPrince | She doesn't need to be married. | Feb 20 03:23 |
| IsambardPrince | She's capable of enough stupidity for two stupid people all by herself. | Feb 20 03:24 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, Being near my mother is like crossing the event horizon of stupidity, and getting pulled down to that level. | Feb 20 03:27 |
| IsambardPrince | You can't argue with the kitchen table. It's the same thing only worse. | Feb 20 03:28 |
| IsambardPrince | It's like a bird that keeps repeating the same thing it heard someone else say. | Feb 20 03:28 |
| IsambardPrince | You can scream at the bird all you want, but it doesn't know what you mean, and frankly it doesn't know what it's saying either. | Feb 20 03:28 |
| IsambardPrince | All it knows it it heard it somewhere, and it was evolutionarily advantagous to mimic sounds it picked up. | Feb 20 03:29 |

| IsambardPrince | That's the level of understanding and critical thought of most people in MAGA. Either the brain no longer works or it never works, or they're like my parents where most of their brain never works and then it aged poorly. | Feb 20 03:33 |
| IsambardPrince | My mom never takes vaccines. She's an antivaxxer, so she's always sick with COVID, Pneumonia, or the Flu. | Feb 20 03:34 |
| IsambardPrince | All that swelling. It causes your brain to enlarge, compress against the skull, which kills it a bit at a time. | Feb 20 03:34 |
| IsambardPrince | But she's never been quite right. | Feb 20 03:34 |
| IsambardPrince | And honestly if anything can take my dad away from his pornography for a few minutes, it's right-wing politics. Because it lights up a different part of the brain, not that it's analyzing anything, just the part that gets mad and shouts. That's all you need, really. | Feb 20 03:35 |
| IsambardPrince | With deporting Indians, they accidentally landed in the right place, almost. They should be getting rid of the ones with business degrees. They do far more damage than the street shitters. | Feb 20 03:37 |
| IsambardPrince | But the only reason they want any of them out is they're immigrants and they're seen as directly maybe needing something. | Feb 20 03:37 |
| IsambardPrince | It would be a mistake to label me the same as Marko Elez or other Trump/Musk officials. | Feb 20 03:40 |
| IsambardPrince | Elez said he wanted to have a "genocide" against Indian people. I'd prefer to just return all of them and say that they're welcome to apply the legal way when they learn how to flush a toilet and run an honest business. | Feb 20 03:40 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, The worst I have to say about the Philippines is they're generally a nice and decent bunch, but why is there always a rooster when I call my bank? | Feb 20 03:44 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz-pi, Governor Pritzker gave a very good speech to the Illinois General Assembly today. | Feb 20 05:28 |
| IsambardPrince | I noticed some empty chairs, Republicans I guess who didn't want to hear his speech about the Nazis. | Feb 20 05:28 |
| IsambardPrince | Fuck em. | Feb 20 05:29 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, It was nice to hear the governor quote the Blues Brothers though. | Feb 20 05:30 |
| IsambardPrince | "I hate Illinois Nazis." | Feb 20 05:30 |
| IsambardPrince | The Illinois Nazi Party did march in the end, after a Jewish lawyer won their court case (back in the 70s). | Feb 20 05:31 |
| IsambardPrince | They moved it from Skokie to Chicago. | Feb 20 05:31 |
| IsambardPrince | In the end, only 20 Nazis showed up, but over 2,000 people showed up to protest them and the whole thing fizzled out after 10 minutes and the Nazis left. | Feb 20 05:31 |
| IsambardPrince | There was an Illinois Nazi that ran for my Congressional district when I lived on the north side. | Feb 20 05:32 |
| IsambardPrince | That district included Skokie. | Feb 20 05:32 |
| IsambardPrince | He ran as a Republican even though he was an American Nazi Party member. | Feb 20 05:32 |
| IsambardPrince | The Republican Party didn't say anything bad about him or discourage anyone from voting for him. | Feb 20 05:32 |
| IsambardPrince | And he got 37% of the vote. | Feb 20 05:33 |
| IsambardPrince | probably from people who didn't even know who he was. | Feb 20 05:33 |
| IsambardPrince | Illinois is poaching a lot of jobs from California tech companies, like Google. | Feb 20 05:35 |
| IsambardPrince | They want to be in a liberal/left-leaning state. | Feb 20 05:36 |
| IsambardPrince | But one with taxes that are merely high, not absolutely insane. | Feb 20 05:36 |
| IsambardPrince | Well, we have higher than average labor and tax costs, but the lowest energy costs in the midwest apparently. | Feb 20 05:37 |
| IsambardPrince | The relatively cheap power puts the total cost of doing business in energy intensive industry to a point where it's comparable to the surrounding states. | Feb 20 05:38 |
| IsambardPrince | nobody, Give the Democrats time. | Feb 20 05:38 |
| IsambardPrince | They'll fuck that advantage up too. | Feb 20 05:38 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | tech please | Feb 20 05:39 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | not this ^ | Feb 20 05:39 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], I figure Google will want more of a presence here eventually. | Feb 20 05:41 |
| IsambardPrince | Data centers need cheap power and lots of water. | Feb 20 05:41 |
| IsambardPrince | We're strategically well positioned for this. | Feb 20 05:41 |
| IsambardPrince | And the office jobs go to Chicago | Feb 20 05:41 |
| IsambardPrince | Illinois population stopped falling and started growing again last year. | Feb 20 05:42 |
| IsambardPrince | Immigrants are resplacing the ones who leave the state. | Feb 20 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | 110,000 immigrants came to Illinois to live, 60,000 natural born citizens left. | Feb 20 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | Net gain 50,000, | Feb 20 05:43 |
| IsambardPrince | 90,000 immigrants in, in 2023, 90,000 people who were born in the US out. | Feb 20 05:44 |

| Afdal | For a few weeks now they've set up their captcha system to crash small web browsers | Feb 20 05:57 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | oh, to crash? | Feb 20 05:57 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | by intention? | Feb 20 05:58 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | yesterday i had to kill my browsers | Feb 20 05:58 |
| Afdal | It sure seems like it | Feb 20 05:58 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | they hoarded GBs or RAM | Feb 20 05:58 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | i could not understand why | Feb 20 05:58 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | but I am not sure that incident was the fault of CF | Feb 20 05:59 |
| Afdal | I say it sure seems like the intention because it's been weeks now with no change and they've told people complaining about it to "just use a different web browser" | Feb 20 05:59 |

| Afdal | yes there's multiple people starting at the end of page 10 talking about memory greediness | Feb 20 06:09 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | " I also chatted with Roy Schestowitz at TechRights on their IRC channel a few days ago. I wouldn't be surprised if he eventually links to @back2themoon's Hacker News post or some other mention of the problem, as TechRights has covered what they refer to as "ClownFlare" for a long time. But on the other hand, Schestowitz made it clear to me that his opinion is that people should simply avoid sites that use Cloudflare at all costs, | Feb 20 06:09 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | which is actually my own personal opinion and my own tactic. So there's a good chance that TechRights simply never bothers to write about the people that are locked out of Cloudflare sites - sites that Schestowitz doesn't feel are worthy of getting any traffic at all anyway. He may, in fact, be quite happy that Cloudflare is locking people out of sites and may be hoping that Cloudflare locks a lot more people out of sites until t | Feb 20 06:09 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | hey've destroyed the traffic to all their clients' sites. Which - actually - is kind of hard to disagree with. This entire business model of running a mafia-type "protection" racket at exorbitant fees for websites is quite obscene when you think it over." | Feb 20 06:09 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | memory greediness is one thing | Feb 20 06:09 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | not the same as pushing to OOM | Feb 20 06:10 |

| Afdal | You should test a cloudflare captcha out yourself and see if that's what caused your own memory crisis earlier | Feb 20 06:16 |

| Afdal | I've had it happen two times though and don't really want to experiment with it again :( | Feb 20 06:17 |
| Afdal | In terms of detective work/journalism, I think someone ought to look into Cloudflare and see if they have any direct links to Google. I know their board of directors has had a revolving door with multiple US administrations since Obama (see Alyssa Starzak) | Feb 20 06:19 |

| IsambardPrince | "While the White House has claimed some $55 billion in savings so far, itemized documents posted by the group suggest the actual savings are only a fraction of that amount.

| IsambardPrince | That is actually some funny shit. | Feb 20 07:30 |
| IsambardPrince | Listening to the president talk about circumcisions in another country and us paying $10 million for it. | Feb 20 07:30 |
| IsambardPrince | Cutting the spending is better than cutting the penis. | Feb 20 07:30 |
| IsambardPrince | We should stop worrying about how the African man uses his penis and stop cutting his penis. | Feb 20 07:31 |
| IsambardPrince | This whole thing seems to be like some general anxiety over how "oversexed" the black man is, so they have to cut his penis to un-oversex him. | Feb 20 07:31 |
| IsambardPrince | Bill Gates was doing these circumcisions in Africa for a while. | Feb 20 07:32 |
| IsambardPrince | He lied and told them it grants 100% immunity from HIV. | Feb 20 07:32 |
| IsambardPrince | Then a bunch of them did it, and got HIV. | Feb 20 07:32 |
| IsambardPrince | We need to make male circumcision a non-covered practice in the US. | Feb 20 07:33 |
| IsambardPrince | Ban it from health insurance and Medicaid. | Feb 20 07:33 |
| IsambardPrince | Cut spending and quit cutting penises. | Feb 20 07:33 |
| IsambardPrince | Maybe if you stick a $12,000 non-covered bill in the face of the parents, they stop doing it. | Feb 20 07:33 |
| IsambardPrince | That's all I mean. | Feb 20 07:33 |
| taylan | Note that there are medically necessary types of partial circumcision. Wouldn't want to accidentally ban those from health care. | Feb 20 07:34 |
| taylan | There's also the risk that some populations will go for cheaper and more dangerous circumcisions if it's not covered. It's super important to some cultures, largely benign, and not an expensive operation. | Feb 20 07:35 |
| IsambardPrince | If the government is spending $12,000 to circumcise infants who were born on Medicaid, which is 68% of all infants in Louisiana, for example.... | Feb 20 07:36 |
| IsambardPrince | How much is that and why can't they spend it on WIC coupons or something? | Feb 20 07:37 |
| IsambardPrince | You know, to help the mother buy baby food or diapers or something? | Feb 20 07:37 |
| IsambardPrince | Basically we have this. | Feb 20 07:38 |
| IsambardPrince | When you do it to women, they call it female genital mutilation. Which is what it is. | Feb 20 07:38 |
| IsambardPrince | They cut it off so she can't enjoy sex, the Muslim pigs do. You know the filthy heathens. | Feb 20 07:39 |
| IsambardPrince | Anyway, they do it to men and it's considered a medical procedure. | Feb 20 07:39 |
| IsambardPrince | Because of Jews. | Feb 20 07:40 |
| IsambardPrince | Anything Jew is good, you know. | Feb 20 07:40 |
| IsambardPrince | Like cutting into someone's dick for no reason when they can't even say "No! Stop! What the hell do you think you're doing!? Are you insane? Have you lost your mind?" | Feb 20 07:40 |
| IsambardPrince | $12,000 dollars to do this shit. You know that's a third of what you make in a year if you work at Walmart? | Feb 20 07:41 |
| taylan | comparing FGM to circumcision makes no sense at all... the male equivalent of FGM would be like cutting off the entire penis. | Feb 20 07:41 |
| IsambardPrince | Oh, Lobster. | Feb 20 07:42 |
| taylan | Muslims don't universally do FGM by the way. For example, in Turkey it's unheard of. | Feb 20 07:42 |
| taylan | Turks do circumcise all the boys though (I'm circumcised because I grew up in Turkey) | Feb 20 07:43 |
| taylan | by the way, 12K USD really isn't a lot of money, what's the context of that? | Feb 20 07:44 |
| IsambardPrince | It's about what the line on the hospital bill is for circumcision. | Feb 20 07:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Male circumcision has fallen in the US. | Feb 20 07:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Because of increased poverty. | Feb 20 07:45 |
| IsambardPrince | And out of control medical inflation. | Feb 20 07:45 |
| IsambardPrince | If overall inflation in the US ran like medical inflation, the value of the dollar would fall by about half every 5 years or so I think. | Feb 20 07:46 |
| IsambardPrince | We'd be in a lot of trouble. | Feb 20 07:46 |
| taylan | oh, so it's 12K per person? that's ridiculously high then lol | Feb 20 07:46 |
| IsambardPrince | It is. | Feb 20 07:46 |
| IsambardPrince | 20 years ago it ran about $3,000. | Feb 20 07:47 |
| IsambardPrince | In the 1980s it was only about $700. | Feb 20 07:47 |
| IsambardPrince | Circumcision hyperinflation. | Feb 20 07:47 |
| taylan | in Turkey I doubt it costs more than the equivalent of a couple hundred USD. no idea what my parents paid back then but it was done on the kitchen table at home :D | Feb 20 07:47 |
| Afdal | this is a weird topic to be discussing in here >.> | Feb 20 07:48 |
| Afdal | but the real issue is consent | Feb 20 07:48 |
| Afdal | It's one thing for a consenting informed adult to consent to body modification | Feb 20 07:48 |
| taylan | (he was a professional and it was sanitary, but it really was done on the kitchen table at home, which is really funny when I think about it) | Feb 20 07:48 |
| Afdal | it's quite another for an infant | Feb 20 07:48 |
| IsambardPrince | In the US, the health plan for those without much money is "go die". | Feb 20 07:48 |
| IsambardPrince | And the Republicans plan to make it worse. | Feb 20 07:49 |
| taylan | Afdal: on one hand, I agree on principle; on the other hand, it's generally not a big deal in practice (unlike, say, FGM, which has crippling effects) | Feb 20 07:50 |
| IsambardPrince | You have to be basically destitute or terminally ill to get Medicaid, and they want to add work requirements. | Feb 20 07:50 |
| IsambardPrince | They already have work requirements on most of the ways you can get it. | Feb 20 07:50 |
| Afdal | you know informed consent was one of the Nuremburg principles | Feb 20 07:50 |
| IsambardPrince | So you better tell those 8 month pregnant women and dying cancer patients and blind amputees to hop to it. | Feb 20 07:50 |
| IsambardPrince | Afdal, They just say your parents consented for you. | Feb 20 07:51 |
| IsambardPrince | I'm lucky I'm even alive after those two. | Feb 20 07:51 |
| IsambardPrince | But the law said they were in charge until I was 18. | Feb 20 07:51 |
| IsambardPrince | My father had three college degrees, high income. Held down careers. However...severe deficits everywhere else. | Feb 20 07:52 |
| IsambardPrince | Like, mom told him let that pot of beans boil for an hour then turn it to low. | Feb 20 07:52 |
| IsambardPrince | She came home after her shift that evening and the pot had boiled dry, the house was filled with smoke, the smoke detector was going off, and she found him in his "study" looking through a titty magazine. | Feb 20 07:53 |
| IsambardPrince | Meanwhile, she ran off to all the payday loan places and wrote bad checks and got him to pay twice as much money two weeks later when the prosecutor was threatening them. | Feb 20 07:53 |
| IsambardPrince | And telling her employer she was exempt from taxes and making him pay at the end of the tax year, for her and him. | Feb 20 07:54 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.linuxfoundation.org | Navigating Global Regulations and Open Source: US OFAC Sanctions | Feb 20 08:08 | |
| Afdal | The bigger picture is that this crap is scaring people away from holding their copyrights in the United States | Feb 20 08:08 |
| Afdal | which was until now the key to GPL enforcement | Feb 20 08:08 |
| Afdal | the GPL was written directed at US laws and it can only be enforced in US courts when a project holds its copyrights in the US | Feb 20 08:09 |
| IsambardPrince | Nobody should want to be under OFAC or anything like it. Especially not under Trump's people. | Feb 20 08:09 |
| IsambardPrince | There's no telling how Trump will wield that, but it won't be good. | Feb 20 08:09 |

| IsambardPrince | Trump is already politicizing the US financial framework in ways it simply never has been before. | Feb 20 08:10 |
| IsambardPrince | Including stripping away the FDIC's independence and trying to install Trump cronies on them so who even knows if their savings deposits are insured anymore. | Feb 20 08:10 |
| IsambardPrince | The FDIC has NEVER been political. Under any administration, all the way back to 1935. | Feb 20 08:11 |
| Afdal | My big takeaway from the LF's statement on it is that the sanctions are placing an enormous burden on libre projects to both a) keep extreme track of the identity and national origin of contributors in order to avoid the wrong ones, making software projects about people instead of the software, and b) take a magical guess about how improving their software might possibly also benefit an entity proscribed by their government and thus refuse to improve | Feb 20 08:11 |
| IsambardPrince | This is some bad shit. | Feb 20 08:11 |
| Afdal | their software. | Feb 20 08:11 |
| IsambardPrince | It's not going to end well. | Feb 20 08:11 |
| Afdal | b is directly hostile to the entire idea of libre software and it's exactly the same thing that libre software enthusiasts disown when a project uses a free-but-don't-support-this-thing license. | Feb 20 08:11 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], I can think of ways to use "DOGE savings". A lot of them. | Feb 20 08:11 |
| IsambardPrince | Put them in the Deposit Insurance Fund. | Feb 20 08:12 |
| IsambardPrince | They're gonna need it. :) | Feb 20 08:12 |
| Afdal | I can't believe the Software Freedom Law Center or something other litigation-oriented group haven't acted on this yet | Feb 20 08:12 |
| Afdal | Whether Trump rescinds these Biden-era sanctions or not, they've exposed a dangerous legal problem with the GPL | Feb 20 08:12 |
| IsambardPrince | I think they should lower deposit insurance down to $100,000 per depositor, and ban those "partitioning" services that split the deposits between banks to game the system. | Feb 20 08:13 |
| IsambardPrince | The goal of the fund should be to save people who are not rich. | Feb 20 08:13 |
| IsambardPrince | If you want to open accounts at many banks, yourself, by hand, that would maybe be okay. $100,000 at a time, by yourself. | Feb 20 08:14 |
| IsambardPrince | But partitioning lets you insure any amount, millions even. | Feb 20 08:14 |
