DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], Great Clips sent me a hair cut coupon. $14.99 (plus tip obviously).Aug 21 01:00
DaemonFCThe coupons used to be like $8.99 or $9.99 a couple of years ago.Aug 21 01:00
DaemonFCSo even the coupon rate for a haircut (pre-tip) is 150% of what it cost two years ago.Aug 21 01:01
DaemonFCBut inflation "is only 8-9% per year".Aug 21 01:01
DaemonFCWhat we're really seeing is a fire burning out of control.Aug 21 01:03
DaemonFChttps://www.reuters.com/markets/us/fed-minutes-may-hint-rationale-size-coming-rate-hikes-2022-08-17/Aug 21 01:04
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Fed minutes show more rate hikes in the pipeline, but pace could slow | ReutersAug 21 01:04
DaemonFC"Participants agreed that there was little evidence to date that inflation pressures were subsiding," the minutes said.Aug 21 01:04
DaemonFC"Though some reduction in inflation, which has been running at four-decade highs, might occur through improving global supply chains or drops in the prices of fuel and other commodities, much of the heavy lifting would have to come by imposing such high borrowing costs on businesses and households that they would spend less, the minutes stated."Aug 21 01:05
DaemonFCWhich basically "puts out the fire" by causing job loss.Aug 21 01:05
DaemonFCLike Clintonista economist Larry Summers gloating that their plan is to double the unemployment rate "for five years".Aug 21 01:06
heurekaDaemonFC: it is +50% in how many years exactly?Aug 21 01:12
DaemonFCIn early 2020, right before lockdown bullshit, the coupons said "$9.99+tax".Aug 21 01:13
DaemonFCNow they say "$14.99+tax".Aug 21 01:13
heureka+50% total in 10 years for example is equivalent to an annual inflation of +4.5% compound interestAug 21 01:13
DaemonFCYes, but it's +50 in 2 years and 6 months.Aug 21 01:13
heurekaquestion is, when a haircut first was available for $10Aug 21 01:14
DaemonFCSo what does that work out to?Aug 21 01:14
heurekafor example, if a haircut was $10 in year 2010, then the inflation in thos should be calcualted since 2010Aug 21 01:14
DaemonFCWell, in 2008, they were sending out the "$6.99+tax" coupons.Aug 21 01:14
DaemonFCSo we know that in 12 years, it only went up by $3, but then in 2.5 years it went up another $5.Aug 21 01:15
heurekaok, then to keep it simple let's say 2010 it was $10, and 2020 it increased +50% in 10 yearsAug 21 01:15

*heureka (~heureka@964c847ccybdw.irc) has joined #techrightsAug 21 01:15
DaemonFCIt's weird that it stayed so remarkably stable for a decade.Aug 21 01:15
DaemonFCThen in 2.5 years they're like "Fuck this!" and hiked it up 50% all at once.Aug 21 01:16
DaemonFCA comedian joked that Bill Gates "refused to spend more than $10 on a haircut".Aug 21 01:17
heurekawell, if annual income increase averaged at +4.5% compound interest then they lost several years of income alreadyAug 21 01:17
DaemonFCI suppose that would be the $15 haircut today.Aug 21 01:17
DaemonFCSo we know Gates won't go over 15 on a haircut or a girl.Aug 21 01:17
DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], You mentioned Gates, Epstein and JONES earlier.Aug 21 01:18
MinceRi don't care how much gAIDS spends on haircutsAug 21 01:18
MinceRi do care about what he's done to this industry and to this societyAug 21 01:18
DaemonFCI've noticed that pedos lose interest fast after about age 15.Aug 21 01:18
DaemonFCSo I'm certain it isn't only about power, because it would still be breaking the law for a year or two in most states.Aug 21 01:19
DaemonFCSome people get their kicks breaking the law and laughing that nobody will stop them.Aug 21 01:19
DaemonFC(Power trip.)Aug 21 01:19
heurekaMinceR: was it BillG? his product was/is Altair BasicAug 21 01:19

heurekaalthough BillG still presents his visage for the IBM Wintel11 crapAug 21 01:20
DaemonFCWell, whether an implementation of BASIC was Free or Non-Free made very little difference to the user in the days of early home computing.Aug 21 01:20
DaemonFCIt was burned into a firmware ROM that nobody could change.Aug 21 01:20
heurekaaltair basic was distributed as paper tapeAug 21 01:20
heurekainitiallyAug 21 01:21
DaemonFCSo you were programming for the computer. What the computer allowed you to do was make programs using something that couldn't be changed if you wanted to (or if the manufacturer wanted to).Aug 21 01:21
DaemonFCCommodore BASIC was Microsoft's as well.Aug 21 01:21
DaemonFCThat's the one I had the most exposure to growing up.Aug 21 01:21
heurekainterestingAug 21 01:21
heurekaokAug 21 01:21
DaemonFCCommodore modified it under license from Microsoft.Aug 21 01:23
DaemonFCThey actually got a source license with modification rights.Aug 21 01:23
DaemonFCSo there were different revisions of Commodore BASIC in their later models.Aug 21 01:23
DaemonFCApparently, the CEO of Commodore was angry with Bill Gates, because Microsoft left a calling card in it.Aug 21 01:24
DaemonFCIf you made a specially crafted program and commanded it to run, it would print out MICROSOFT to the screen.Aug 21 01:24
heurekaseems to be opensource nowadays, don't know what was available in 1980sAug 21 01:24
heurekahttps://github.com/microsoft/GW-BASICAug 21 01:24
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-GitHub - microsoft/GW-BASIC: The original source code of Microsoft GW-BASIC from 1983Aug 21 01:24
DaemonFCThe CEO was pissed because the system only had 64 K of RAM and it took some lines of code to do this, and it all got loaded into the memory.Aug 21 01:24
heurekaMicrosoft BASIC: "All files within this repo are released under the MIT (OSI) License as per the LICENSE file stored in the root of this repo"Aug 21 01:25
heurekathis is the BillG product, and it's opensource and free softwareAug 21 01:26
starstreak"It's like having mission control right on my PC" - Gary Winston (Anti-Trust)Aug 21 01:32
heurekadon't know when these source were first released into public, and there was many other basic interpreter vendorsAug 21 01:34
MinceRheureka: under gAIDS's leadership, the redmond mafia bullied all PC manufacturers into bundling their alleged computers with MICROS~1's alleged operating systemsAug 21 01:36
MinceRand often into locking those alleged computers into MICROS~1's alleged operating systemsAug 21 01:36
heurekaMinceR: no doubtAug 21 01:37
MinceRthey defrauded many individuals and businessesAug 21 01:37
MinceRtheir products turned PCs into spam-sending zombiesAug 21 01:37
heurekahowever, the recent MICROS~1 product line isn't a one of BillG, WinNT emerged from DEC (OpenVMS)Aug 21 01:38
heurekaand it's the surrounding political interests close nearby Washington and the Pentagon, who pushed the mentioned agendaAug 21 01:38
MinceRBackdoors NT combines the design flaws of ["open"]VMS with the design flaws of Backdoors and DOSAug 21 01:38
DaemonFCGW-BASIC is better commented than I figured it would be.Aug 21 01:39
MinceRthere's a single comment in the source code?Aug 21 01:39
starstreakheureka, the pentagon, of courseAug 21 01:39
DaemonFCBasically every line tells you what it's doing.Aug 21 01:39
DaemonFCIf anything this is a bit excessive.Aug 21 01:39
heurekait isn't; comments are easily stripped if desiredAug 21 01:40
DaemonFCNice. Microsoft backdated their Code of Conduct file to February 10, 1983.Aug 21 01:40
heurekai see another problem with BillG's BASIC: "Contains no build scripts, makefiles, or tools required to generate executable binaries, nor does it contain any pre-built binaries / executables"Aug 21 01:41
heurekareminds me of the Assembler issue i was ranting about recentlyAug 21 01:41
MinceRcuriousAug 21 01:41
heurekaand well, yes, basic is implemented in ASMAug 21 01:41
DaemonFCMinceR, Wouldn't want to be phobic of the transformers.Aug 21 01:41
MinceRthe redmond mafia was notorious for not documenting their codeAug 21 01:42
DaemonFCOr the decepticons.Aug 21 01:42
DaemonFCYou'd make mjg59_ cross.Aug 21 01:42
MinceRDaemonFC: i thought it was supposed to be transmissions in english (and transistors in hungarian)Aug 21 01:45
DaemonFCMinceR, Sorry I'm late. Tranny problems.Aug 21 01:46
DaemonFCI just had her rebuilt and she's been acting a little strange since then. :/Aug 21 01:46

heurekai'm still shocked, all free software libc i knew contain much ASM which cannot be digested by an alternative assemblerAug 21 01:55
DaemonFCThe best episode of Better Call Saul was definitely the one where he goaded the members of a golf club to seem antisemitic and then made a huge spectacle of it after he goaded his former boss into nearly punching him and then begged for permission to use the restroom if that would be okay.Aug 21 01:56
DaemonFC(Which he used to plant cocaine in Howard's locker.)Aug 21 01:57
starstreaklolAug 21 01:57
heurekashocked for several reasons: such as i consider GNU software not suitable for tinier embedded and mission critical systems (it's too complicated software by design for this)Aug 21 01:57
starstreakbetter call saul and mr robot are my two favourite shows of all timeAug 21 01:57
DaemonFCSaul Goodman turned out to be worse than Walter White.Aug 21 01:57
heurekaand even worse, if the complexity is mutual and locks out any real alternative (LLVM and whatever assemblers they got arn't an alternative)Aug 21 01:58
DaemonFCI definitely didn't see it coming. They left the best parts for the last couple episodes.Aug 21 01:58
starstreakI didn't like the endingAug 21 01:58

DaemonFCYeah, I started seriously not liking Saul Goodman anymore after the episode where he goaded his own brother into committing suicide.Aug 21 01:59
DaemonFCAnd then after Howard I really hated him.Aug 21 02:00
starstreakI didn't hate him, I was rooting for him lolAug 21 02:00
DaemonFCHoward was a jerk but he didn't have that coming.Aug 21 02:00
heurekado you know any alternative aarch32 "free software" assembler (not GNU gas and not LLVM) which could digest the aarch32 asm inside musl-libc?Aug 21 02:00
heurekait's just an exemplary caseAug 21 02:00
heurekaand practically relevant tooAug 21 02:00
DaemonFCUp until that it was kind of funny when Saul was just dropping bowling balls on his car or something, you know?Aug 21 02:00
starstreakthe hookers were the best lolAug 21 02:01
starstreakshowing up while Howard is having a lunch meetingAug 21 02:01
DaemonFCYeah, everything up to getting murdered, Howard deserved it.Aug 21 02:01
DaemonFCHe had it coming just for how much grief he put Jimmy/Saul through.Aug 21 02:01
starstreakhe didnt kill howard thoAug 21 02:01
starstreakwrong place at the wrong timeAug 21 02:02
heurekaor, another question: is it at least feasible to implement an alternative aarch32 assembler which could digest the asm inside musl-libc?Aug 21 02:02
DaemonFCIf Howard hadn't been such a dick to Jimmy, he never would have turned into Saul Goodman. He would have made partner at HHM and he would have probably become a respectable lawyer, even meeting the approval of his brother.Aug 21 02:02
DaemonFCHis brother and Howard did themselves in by tormenting Jimmy and disrespecting him and stopping his career from advancing at HHM.Aug 21 02:02
DaemonFCThey turned him into Saul.Aug 21 02:03
starstreaki agree with thatAug 21 02:03
starstreakthere was another good one, where he is doing community service and threatens to sue the guy if he cant lay down for a bitAug 21 02:03
DaemonFCYeah, that is how this country works.Aug 21 02:04
DaemonFCSo the guy put down he was doing his hours because he couldn't afford the possibility of having to face an angry pissed off lawyer with nothing better to do than run him into the ground.Aug 21 02:04
starstreaklolAug 21 02:04
starstreaki would love to be a lawyer but i didn't have the cash so i went with the paralegal routeAug 21 02:05
starstreakalmost as powerful as a lawyerAug 21 02:05
DaemonFCI've represented myself in legal cases before.Aug 21 02:05
starstreakparalegals can have clients where im fromAug 21 02:05
DaemonFCA couple of high stakes civil matters where I just could not afford proper representation.Aug 21 02:05
DaemonFCI actually fared rather well.Aug 21 02:06
starstreaki've represented myself in tons of cases for transgender discrimination Aug 21 02:06
DaemonFCI had to carry our Immigration case while we were between attorneys and had to submit another set of case files, and they were approved.Aug 21 02:06
DaemonFCI convinced a judge in Indiana to strike down part of the Medicaid law.Aug 21 02:06
DaemonFCWhen the state couldn't fix it at the Supreme Court, they repealed it and rewrote that section, and it made several thousand people newly eligible for Medicaid.Aug 21 02:07
DaemonFCIndiana is really fucked up. They were trying to prevent people from getting Medicaid, by whatever means necessary.Aug 21 02:08
DaemonFCBut found plenty of money to give to IBM to botch the transition of the FSSA into a public-private partnership.Aug 21 02:09
DaemonFCI think I mentioned this to schestowitz[TR] Aug 21 02:09
heurekaFSSA?Aug 21 02:09
DaemonFCFamily and Social Services AdministrationAug 21 02:09
DaemonFCThe Illinois counterpart is called the Department of Human Services.Aug 21 02:09
DaemonFCYou move between states and the names of all of the government agencies changes, including the DMV.Aug 21 02:10
DaemonFCSome states call the license branch the Department of Motor Vehicles.Aug 21 02:10
DaemonFCIn New Mexico, it's the Motor Vehicle Division.Aug 21 02:10
DaemonFCIn some states (including Illinois and Michigan), it's the Secretary of State.Aug 21 02:11
DaemonFCIn Indiana, it's the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.Aug 21 02:11
DaemonFCIndiana isn't so violent that their DMV needs its own police force.Aug 21 02:11

DaemonFCOkay, I dumped out my gasoline rebate account into a Walmart gift card.Aug 21 02:16
DaemonFCI'm doing that now so I don't have to dump rebates into PayPal which may end up on a 1099-K going to the IRS. Rebates are not taxable, but it could still create a tax form I don't want.Aug 21 02:17
DaemonFCSo....Aug 21 02:17
heurekawell, i'm still more curious about the ASM questionAug 21 02:17
heurekaseems for aarch32 there isn't any real alternative assembler implementation, which could digest musl-libc (or any other libc)Aug 21 02:19

heurekawith i386 bootstrappable.org did hack musl-libc and too i386-tcc assembler, and succeeded; however ia32 is problematic for that many other reasons i am not willing to move thereAug 21 02:20
heurekain the end, it's a few hundred lines of ASM which crushed the whole idea of a tcc-toolchain (no binutils, no gcc, no llvm)Aug 21 02:21
heurekahence the question, if it was at least feasible to implement an assembler for this, is the key to understanding anti-competitive vendor-lock and where GNU is positionedAug 21 02:22
DaemonFCI'm considering coming up with the documents to apply for tribal citizenship with the Cherokee Nation.Aug 21 02:23
starstreakDaemonFC, you should do thatAug 21 02:25
heurekawhich assembler and hardware would GNU/FSF endorse as "free software"? their x86/64 GNU gas one and vendor-lock into it?Aug 21 02:26
heurekaor, is it possible/desirable to dissect the aarch32 gas implementation and move that over into arm-tcc assembler (it's both GPL)?Aug 21 02:27
heurekastumbled upon some aarch32 asm inside libffi(required for python) too... i don't know if this is the type of "free software"Aug 21 02:30
heurekaand the design-rationale of tcc seems different to GNU, meaning i may not want to re-implement GNU gas there for the sake of itAug 21 02:31
DaemonFCI don't know why Russians get special treatment as "Orcs".Aug 21 02:33
DaemonFCThat description could easily describe any nation of the modern industrialized world.Aug 21 02:33
heurekaeven dieatlibc, it's fully loaded with GNU gas... no idea how such a libc could ever be digested reasonably without binutilsAug 21 02:33

DaemonFCThis is an example of what we're up against. The movie was a fictional story. In the story, it showed the tribe being attacked by a much more dangerous and violent tribe, and they were badly outnumbered.Aug 21 03:46

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-libapps.salisbury.edu | Representation in Dances with Wolves · Native Americans Then and Now · Nabb Research Center Online ExhibitsAug 21 03:50
DaemonFC"The beginning of the film Dances with Wolves affirms the Native American stereotypes that have been running through the foundations of our societies. In the first appearance of Native characters arrive ominous intimidating music loudens, and all the white characters are struck with fear. The Native Americans killed a white settler very brutally and called them savages. This is not an accurate depiction of them."Aug 21 03:50

DaemonFC"On Tuesday, Walmart surprised Wall Street with better-than-expected sales and a 8.4 percent jump in profits as new shoppers turned to it for groceries and other essentials. Same-store sales, a key metric, jumped 6.5 percent. The nation’s largest retailer saw its shares pop more than 5 percent that day, then close out the week 4.3 percent higher."Aug 21 05:08
DaemonFCWalmart usually does well when the economy is in the shitter and people really need to save a few bucks on things.Aug 21 05:08
DaemonFC"But Target missed analyst expectations, recording a 90 percent drop in profit as it worked to clear excess inventory."Aug 21 05:08
DaemonFCTarget is basically "expensive Walmart". They also failed to expand as much into groceries. I noticed the floor space devoted to groceries is lower as a percentage. About 40-45% of a Walmart store's square footage is "consumables" compared with 25% or so at Target.Aug 21 05:09
DaemonFCThey also can't get their costs down. Their CEO says this is all temporary, but I predict that Target will be the next KMart.Aug 21 05:10
DaemonFCThey used to be in every town in America and now there's like 6 stores left.Aug 21 05:10
DaemonFC"Though food and beverage sales surpassed all other categories for Target, Walmart saw bigger gains because of an influx of new customers looking to save a few dollars on food and back-to-school merchandise."Aug 21 05:11
DaemonFCWe've been shopping there all along. I've never had the extra room in the budget to go shopping at a big grocery store unless I was just hitting them up on a sale or something.Aug 21 05:11
DaemonFCBut I'm like, laser focused. I'm not the customer you want to have if you run a store like that. I go in there, buy all of your chicken and freeze it, and you don't make much on me.Aug 21 05:12
DaemonFCI tend to have some extremely expensive meat shopping trips at the start of a calendar year when grocery is a bonus category.Aug 21 05:12
DaemonFCI froze enough chicken, steak, ground beef, and pork in the first 3 months of the year that I haven't had to buy any meat since the cashback quarter ended on March 31st.Aug 21 05:13

MinceRlolAug 21 17:27
CrystalMathbecause if you even consider the possibility that liberalism is harmful, you realize that countries should not be forced to be dependent on othersAug 21 17:27
XRevan86CrystalMath: I believe in that the government should be accountable to the people.Aug 21 17:27
CrystalMathbut do you ever doubt that, even once?Aug 21 17:27
XRevan86If that's called liberalism, then yes, I do believe that.Aug 21 17:27
CrystalMathi doubt what i think sometimesAug 21 17:27
MinceRCrystalMath: i'm interested in the freedom of people, not in the freedom of countries.Aug 21 17:27
CrystalMathMinceR: but do you ever doubt that it's good?Aug 21 17:28
CrystalMathi think notAug 21 17:28
XRevan86"because if you even consider the possibility that liberalism is harmful, you realise that countries should not be forced to be dependent on its citizens"Aug 21 17:28
CrystalMathwhile i doAug 21 17:28
MinceRgood on youAug 21 17:28
CrystalMathi want there to exist places which do things differentlyAug 21 17:28
CrystalMathif nothing else, to have a "control group"Aug 21 17:28
MinceR"i believe in statist authoritarian nonsense but it's ok because i claim to doubt it sometimes"Aug 21 17:28
CrystalMathMinceR: no, but i would gladly allow a small piece of land to have such a system to test it, because i don't *know* that what i think is good is better than thatAug 21 17:29
CrystalMathbecause we don't know what is goodAug 21 17:29
MinceRooh, how generousAug 21 17:29
XRevan86I live in a place where it is thought that a person has a duty to the government, but there's no opposite thought.Aug 21 17:29
MinceRa small piece of land!Aug 21 17:29
CrystalMathMinceR: yes, for example afghanistanAug 21 17:29
MinceRwho gives a shit about the suffering of people when the land is all that matters.Aug 21 17:29
XRevan86CrystalMath: I am sick of this corrupt shit.Aug 21 17:29
MinceRCrystalMath: afghanistan is a tiny fragment of the land where authoritarian monsters ruleAug 21 17:30
MinceRand probably isn't even the worst exampleAug 21 17:30
CrystalMathMinceR: we do not know if they are monsters, how do you know you are better than them?Aug 21 17:30
CrystalMathi personally don't think you areAug 21 17:30
CrystalMathyou would oppress people in different waysAug 21 17:30
MinceRi use my central nervous systemAug 21 17:30
XRevan86MinceR: How do ye know ye are better than Putin?Aug 21 17:30
MinceRi think about thingsAug 21 17:30
CrystalMathyou would probably take away my right to incandecent lightbulbs and leaded solder, among other thingsAug 21 17:30
XRevan86Very arrogant of you, MinceR, tsk-tsk.Aug 21 17:30
MinceRwith that, it's easy to know that they are monstersAug 21 17:30
MinceRand it's easy to know that i'm better than themAug 21 17:30
CrystalMathXRevan86: you can't ever know that, because there is no objective good or badAug 21 17:30
CrystalMathso no, you are not better than Putin objectively, because it's impossible to be better or worse objectivelyAug 21 17:31
XRevan86CrystalMath: Maybe we can make a count of how many people Putin and MinceR tried to poison and then go from there.Aug 21 17:31
MinceR> there is no objective good or badAug 21 17:31
MinceRso what the hell are you arguing for?Aug 21 17:31
CrystalMathMinceR: diversity!Aug 21 17:31
CrystalMathdiversity of thought, diversity of systemsAug 21 17:31
MinceRwhere's the diversity between all the systems of oppression you support?Aug 21 17:32
CrystalMathMinceR: the systems of oppression you support would exist too, of courseAug 21 17:32
MinceRwhere's the thought in the bullshit orban and his allies spout?Aug 21 17:32
MinceRlike the recent racist idiocyAug 21 17:32
MinceR21 183235 < CrystalMath> MinceR: the systems of oppression you support would exist too, of courseAug 21 17:32
MinceRthat's the empty setAug 21 17:32
CrystalMathMinceR: you support the EU, which is oppressiveAug 21 17:33
MinceRCrystalMath: why do you argue for diversity?Aug 21 17:33
XRevan86Can there be diversity *inside* Russia or is it only allowed for Russia itself to be divergent in how backwards it is?Aug 21 17:33
MinceRi prefer the EU to orbanistanAug 21 17:33
MinceRother than that, it's failing hardAug 21 17:33
CrystalMathit wants to ban the consumption of meat, leaded solder (which is the only good kind), incandescent lightbulbs, petrol engines (the only ones not remotely controlled by Tesla)....Aug 21 17:33
MinceRthe EU has some nice alleged values, but either they don't care to uphold them, or are too incompetent to do soAug 21 17:33
XRevan86Also, how diversive can an iron boot even be?Aug 21 17:33
MinceRwhere's the diversity of thought in a totalitarian dictatorship?Aug 21 17:34
MinceRwhere's the diversity of thought where people are thrown in gulag for expressing dissent?Aug 21 17:34
XRevan86CrystalMath is robbed of the ncandecent lightbulb, I am a potential felon for even talking about this.Aug 21 17:34
CrystalMathMinceR: yeah like people arrested for quoting the bible at a pride paradeAug 21 17:34
CrystalMathMinceR: shame on germanyAug 21 17:34
MinceRpretty sure we have incandescent lightbulbsAug 21 17:34
XRevan86One is slavery, the other is true freedom, don't mistake one for the other.Aug 21 17:34
MinceRCrystalMath: why do you argue for diversity?Aug 21 17:35
CrystalMathMinceR: if you quote the bible, you are "intolerant" and thrown in to the gulagAug 21 17:35
CrystalMathMinceR: because no system is rightAug 21 17:35
MinceRCrystalMath: so how can you be sure that diversity is right?Aug 21 17:35

CrystalMathMinceR: since the alternative would mean that one system would rule over allAug 21 17:35
CrystalMathMinceR: this would be bad because no system is right, of courseAug 21 17:35
MinceRalso, can they hurry up and throw the members of the CDU and the CSU in that gulag already?Aug 21 17:35
CrystalMathso, the one ruling system would necesarily be badAug 21 17:36
MinceR> this would be badAug 21 17:36
XRevan86There were several instances when quotes from the Bible on a banner got considered discreditation of the Russian army.Aug 21 17:36
MinceR> there is no objective good or badAug 21 17:36
CrystalMathMinceR: it's a paradox, one that is only resolved by accepting diversityAug 21 17:36
MinceRplease make up your tiny mind.Aug 21 17:36
MinceRquotes from the bible could discredit anything, the bible being an inconsistent messAug 21 17:36
CrystalMathMinceR: yes but it should not be bannedAug 21 17:37
CrystalMathand people should not be arrested for reading itAug 21 17:37
MinceRagreedAug 21 17:37
MinceRand i doubt it's done anywhereAug 21 17:37
MinceRexcept possibly in states run by religious fundamentalistsAug 21 17:37
MinceRfor example, i doubt the talibans you support would take too kindly to anyone quoting the new testament.Aug 21 17:37
CrystalMathwell i didn't say i want to invade germany, i just want to say that all systems are equally bad, and so we need a diversity of systemsAug 21 17:37
CrystalMathgermany could even choose to jail people who are christian and i would not invade themAug 21 17:38
XRevan86MinceR: That's a euphemism for "execution"?Aug 21 17:38
CrystalMathit's none of my businessAug 21 17:38
MinceRXRevan86: the exact punishment is irrelevant to my pointAug 21 17:38
MinceRthere is no religious freedom in religious fundamentalist statesAug 21 17:38
CrystalMathMinceR: the solution isn't to eradicate islam, the solution is to give islam a little piece of territory, and also every other idea gets some territory too, then we can try all the ideasAug 21 17:39
MinceRno, that's not the solutionAug 21 17:39
MinceRthe solution is to tolerate muslims as long as they tolerate other peopleAug 21 17:39
MinceRit's part of a little thing called "civilization"Aug 21 17:39
MinceRit's about time this species gave it a try.Aug 21 17:39
XRevan86CrystalMath: Rats get better treatment.Aug 21 17:39
CrystalMathunfortunately, people attack eachother, we can choose to not be imperialists ourselves, but what about the imperialists who are around? my solution for that is for them to be countered by competing empiresAug 21 17:40
CrystalMatha multipolar world can keep the individual empires at bayAug 21 17:40
MinceRmy solution for that is to destroy the imperialistsAug 21 17:40
XRevan86Also sucks that Russia disagrees with CrystalMath.Aug 21 17:40
MinceRand abolish the statesAug 21 17:40
XRevan86And when Ukraine strayed away, Putin decided that it's time to do something about them.Aug 21 17:40
MinceRXRevan86: it's ok, they're special so they get a pass.Aug 21 17:40
CrystalMathXRevan86: Putin is constantly talking about a multipolar worldAug 21 17:40
MinceRputler is constantly lyingAug 21 17:40
MinceRso what else is new?Aug 21 17:40
CrystalMathDugin also talked about a multipolar world, in his bookAug 21 17:41
XRevan86CrystalMath: I will give you a piece of absolute truth right now:Aug 21 17:41
MinceRdugin is also constantly lyingAug 21 17:41
XRevan86CrystalMath: Putin's approach to speeches is he will construct a narrative that will work in his favour and then he will try to sell it.Aug 21 17:41
CrystalMathMinceR: well idk, they are at least saying nice things... the EU and Klaus Schwab are saying horrible thingsAug 21 17:41
XRevan86MinceR: Don't know, Dugin is pretty much just insane.Aug 21 17:42
MinceRCrystalMath: maybe to you they seem to be nice thingsAug 21 17:42
CrystalMathMinceR: yes, i want there to be different cultures that do things differentlyAug 21 17:42
MinceRXRevan86: it's an insanity putler and orban are fond of, thoughAug 21 17:42
CrystalMathi want the taliban to be free from external influenceAug 21 17:42
CrystalMathpeople who live with them have the option to leave, or live under their rules; like everywhere else...Aug 21 17:42
MinceRCrystalMath: again, a small cult oppressing tens of millions of people is not "a culture doing things differently"Aug 21 17:42
CrystalMathit's not like i can move to america and then disrespect copyright lawAug 21 17:43
MinceRi want the taliban to be free from the ability to run other people's livesAug 21 17:43
CrystalMathMinceR: what about a cult trying to oppress 7 billion people?Aug 21 17:43
XRevan86CrystalMath: Putin wants his "Russian World" where he can tell the satellite states what to do.Aug 21 17:43
CrystalMathMinceR: how do you never doubt your own view?Aug 21 17:43
MinceRCrystalMath: pretty much every cult is thatAug 21 17:43
MinceRCrystalMath: my views are not based on equivocation, they're based on thoughtAug 21 17:43
CrystalMathso, you see that people are different in this world, and have vastly different ideas and beliefs?Aug 21 17:44
CrystalMathyou want to take one idea, liberalismAug 21 17:44
CrystalMathand you want to make sure that anyone who has contrary ideas has no powerAug 21 17:44
CrystalMaththat's called IMPERIALISMAug 21 17:44
MinceRyes, most people are different from what one would call intelligent or civilizedAug 21 17:44
MinceRCrystalMath: do you think that because you haven't given your idea a name, it's not an ideology?Aug 21 17:45
XRevan86"so, you see that people are different in this world, and have vastly different ideas and beliefs?" <- Like Ukrainians who by and large want Putin gone?Aug 21 17:45
CrystalMathXRevan86: what about the people of the donbass who want to be free from the Kiev junta?Aug 21 17:45
MinceRXRevan86: what about the people of the donbass who want to be free from russian oppression?Aug 21 17:46

MinceRtoo bad your allies don't like itAug 21 17:46
MinceRif they did, there would have been no iron curtain and no berlin wallAug 21 17:46
CrystalMathMinceR: anyway... i meant this.. you are using the words like "civilized"Aug 21 17:46
MinceRhow dare i use english wordsAug 21 17:46
MinceRi should type in hungarianAug 21 17:46
MinceRi'm sure you'd understand it to the same extent.Aug 21 17:47
CrystalMathyes but that's what the british empire uses to describe people who have their ideasAug 21 17:47
CrystalMathyou are quoting their jingoistic textsAug 21 17:47
XRevan86CrystalMath: Ironically, this "liberation" invasion has put these exact people in significantly more danger than they ever were before 2022.Aug 21 17:47

MinceRwe don't have a civilized systemAug 21 17:48

MinceRthat is not civilization, that's the human conditionAug 21 17:48
MinceRi see the truth sickens youAug 21 17:48

MinceRi don't have a clique, sadlyAug 21 17:49
XRevan86CrystalMath: Nice people who robbed their own regions? Then mobilised every man walking (that's more true of "LPR" than "DPR").Aug 21 17:49

CrystalMathXRevan86: well the EU has the idea that everybody must be conquered and enslaved in the name of liberalismAug 21 18:15
CrystalMathso of course, we must seek to stop the EU from succeeding, in order to attain this diversityAug 21 18:15
CrystalMatheverybody should be against imperialists, but... we also have to acknowledge that they exist, so i believe in having different empires that are in a stalemateAug 21 18:16

XRevan86When the methodologists proposed the idea of the Russian World, they thought of Russia as using its economical influence to shape the world.Aug 21 18:21
XRevan86But somewhere along the way it turned into "let's undermine our neighbours so that they do what we told them".Aug 21 18:21

DaemonFCI hate Starbucks.Aug 21 20:45
DaemonFCIf you want shitty fast food coffee, go to McDonalds. At least it's only like $3 there.Aug 21 20:45
DaemonFCBut I mean, it's not like coffee is hard.Aug 21 20:45
DaemonFCWe used to just set the coffee maker to let 'er rip 20 minutes before we had to leave the house and grab a to-go mug on the way to work and it cost 20 cents.Aug 21 20:46
DaemonFCWhat the hell is wrong with people today?Aug 21 20:46
DaemonFCI'm not saying the union will work out well for Starbucks workers. In fact, I think it won't. But the law says they have the right to do that, and Starbucks is breaking the law.Aug 21 20:47
DaemonFCSo something ought to happen to Starbucks.Aug 21 20:47
DaemonFCAnd I don't even understand why they're afraid of the union. It's the workers who will realize they made an error.Aug 21 20:48
DaemonFCThe company has the majority of the bargaining power either way and so I mean, the people who pay for the union are the employees. It comes out of their checks.Aug 21 20:48
phanesim okay with starbucks going away forever.  i have my own espresso machine. :/Aug 21 20:48
DaemonFCChances are they get what they get now or maybe just slightly more but it's in a contract instead of just corporate policy.Aug 21 20:49

MinceRand yes, my point is that the flaws of the human mind make civilization and survival unattainableAug 21 21:07
DaemonFCThe inflation is from corrupt Western governments dumping a total of $10 trillion or so in excess spending after the bullshit COVID lockdowns.Aug 21 21:07

starstreakthe data shows that white people dominate the stats for legal abortionsAug 21 22:51
DaemonFCMy guess is the motels are the only place they can live because the federal anti-discrimination laws are much more enforced on businesses than they are in "housing".Aug 21 22:51

DaemonFCThere's a million reasons not to rent to someone that are perfectly legal.Aug 21 22:52
DaemonFCProving that it was because you're black is impossible. You can't read the guy's mind and get it admitted into evidence.Aug 21 22:52
DaemonFCSo he'll just focus on what's legal.Aug 21 22:53
DaemonFCAnd that'll be the reason, even though an otherwise equal white person would get the apartment.Aug 21 22:53
DaemonFCLike, maybe he doesn't really care about felons as long as it's a white felon.Aug 21 22:53
DaemonFCOr maybe you just barely have the income to rent it, but so does a white person, and he figures a white tenant who is poor is less likely to fuck him on the rent and use the property for crimes.Aug 21 22:54

DaemonFCLandlords really hate a certain type of tenant. The four commandments of trying to rent an apartment are "Thou Shalt Not Have Any Evictions Record", "Thou Shalt Not Be Late On Rent", and "Thou Shalt Not Draw Police Attention", and "Thou Shalt Not Cause Extreme Property Damage". And if you do any of those things, you're out.Aug 21 22:57
DaemonFCIt's in almost every lease that any criminal activity on or involving the property is grounds for having the lease terminated by the landlord.Aug 21 22:57

DaemonFCSo you can not just lose your existing lease, but nobody wants to risk having you hauled off to jail and having an apartment full of your stuff they have to clear out and list the apartment again in the middle of the lease.Aug 21 22:59

DaemonFCThat would be a disaster for us.Aug 21 23:41
DaemonFCIs there a political party that wouldn't be a disaster for us?Aug 21 23:41
schestowitz[TR]maybe unlawful onesAug 21 23:42
DaemonFCFor starters, the 19% flat tax isn't just "Oh well, you're all in a 19% flat tax, but there's this thing that exempts each person's first $12,950 in income and all these retirement tax credits.".Aug 21 23:42
schestowitz[TR]there is also no ranked voting systemAug 21 23:42
DaemonFCIt means.....Hand over 19% of your income, now.Aug 21 23:42

schestowitz[TR]applies to corporations and oligarchs too?Aug 21 23:43
DaemonFCRight now we start out at 10% and get all of these deductions.Aug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]they don't declare "incoming"Aug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]they use loopholesAug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]like stocksAug 21 23:43
*bnchs has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)Aug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]and claim their salary is $1Aug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]the media plays alongAug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]like it's a good jokeAug 21 23:43
DaemonFCSo by the time you deduct everything, it's not even half the 10%.Aug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]when in fact it's a fraudAug 21 23:43
schestowitz[TR]but we know who owns the mediaAug 21 23:43
DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], I really doubt the 19% income tax would hurt Gates.Aug 21 23:44
DaemonFCThey always figure out how to get money and it's not "income".Aug 21 23:44
DaemonFCThat's a neat trick.Aug 21 23:44
schestowitz[TR]yes, his bank is in caymanAug 21 23:44
schestowitz[TR]btw, cayman is remoteAug 21 23:44
schestowitz[TR]maybe he can even screw babies in thereAug 21 23:44
schestowitz[TR]and say it's legalAug 21 23:44
schestowitz[TR]who knows..Aug 21 23:44
schestowitz[TR]anyway, the media isn't investigating things anymoreAug 21 23:44
DaemonFCHe'd have to renounce his US citizenship for it to be legal to have sex with anyone under 18 in another country.Aug 21 23:45
DaemonFCBut if nobody goes after him, is it a law?Aug 21 23:45
schestowitz[TR]yesAug 21 23:45
schestowitz[TR]US "law"Aug 21 23:45

schestowitz[TR]or to indictAug 21 23:45
schestowitz[TR]everyone knewAug 21 23:45
DaemonFCIt would be legal for me to have sex with someone who is 17 in Illinois.Aug 21 23:46
DaemonFCBecause I'm not, like, a cop or THEIR teacher or a social worker.Aug 21 23:46
DaemonFCMaybe people would frown on that, but there's nothing the District Attorney could really do.Aug 21 23:47

DaemonFCThey also try to remove the affirmative defense of "I credibly thought they were 17.".Aug 21 23:48
DaemonFCLike, it's a decent defense because it's in the law itself.Aug 21 23:48
DaemonFCIf a "reasonable person" would have thought they were 17, it's not illegal.Aug 21 23:48
DaemonFCSo the "They lied to me and I didn't verify it." defense can get you off the hook if the jury agrees that they looked older.Aug 21 23:49

DaemonFCThere's no evidence at all that juries across the Great State of ILL are being hoodwinked into letting pedophiles go on the "She told me she was older!" defense.Aug 21 23:51
DaemonFCAnd in some cases, it may be a good defense. Why are we removing something that the jury can and should consider?Aug 21 23:51

DaemonFCWhether a person could have been tricked into breaking the law through no fault of their own should always be something for the jury to consider and it should always be the right of the accused to say they got duped.Aug 21 23:52
DaemonFCMaybe the jury goes for it, maybe they don't. It's your right to tell them that. Or should be.Aug 21 23:52

DaemonFCOnce you have no right to say "Look, I didn't mean to do that!" and let the jury decide whether to believe it or show leniency, it all comes down to whether you can prove you did it or not.Aug 21 23:53

schestowitz[TR]as the jury has no knowledge if the problem domainAug 21 23:54
schestowitz[TR]it's a show trialAug 21 23:54
DaemonFCYeah, which is the only reason I made a plea deal.Aug 21 23:54
DaemonFCThe alternative was going to a show trial in a system that has a higher conviction rate than the Nazi People's Court.Aug 21 23:54
