●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Friday, January 26, 2024 ●● ● Jan 26 [00:02] DaemonFC MinceR: Car threw a code today. [00:02] DaemonFC Went to the shop and they reset it and said they've seen that one a lot this week and they think it's just the temperature fluctuating between like -30 and 40 F. [00:02] DaemonFC The car learns a baseline and then the weather comes up 70 degrees a couple days later and the car is liek WTF. [00:14] DaemonFC I had to fend off Mandy's doctor again. [00:14] DaemonFC They wanted him to get a bunch of vaccines. Most of which he's already had and some for things he's at no risk of getting. [00:14] DaemonFC This is getting ridiculous. [00:16] DaemonFC They wanted him to get a Shingles vaccine so I said this. "To be at risk of Shingles, which I have had, you must first have had the Chickenpox. Mandy has never had the Chickenpox and I vaccinated him for the Chickenpox. The current Shingles vaccine tends to put everyone in a lot of pain, especially with their arm swelling up, and the last one had to be taken off the market because it was giving people the Shingles. This is not medically appropriate at [00:16] DaemonFC this time." [00:17] DaemonFC You can't get Shingles without having had the Chickenpox, usually at least 20-30 years before you're at risk of it coming back as Shingles. [00:17] MinceR Kraft Shingles [00:19] DaemonFC They get money from insurance for jabbing everyone that goes in there. [00:19] DaemonFC It's damned sloppy. [00:22] DaemonFC MinceR: I told someone at the Health Department "You guys had your fun being Pritzkers brownshirts during COVID and I think it went to some people's heads around here. This is America and we have this thing called Informed Consent." [00:23] MinceR do you, though? [00:23] DaemonFC Yeah. [00:24] DaemonFC MinceR: The fines they levied at businesses that eventually reopened anyway got dismissed. [00:24] DaemonFC Nobody actually got fined by the cops for not wearing their mask. [00:24] DaemonFC Nobody got in trouble for coming outside "without a reason". [00:25] DaemonFC MinceR: An experiment to see who would do it despite there being no law. [00:25] DaemonFC That's always how it begins, right? [00:26] DaemonFC MinceR: There's a very general "fine for violating a public health order" but it's never been used like this. [00:26] DaemonFC The legislative intent is, you have one person running around with tuberculosis who won't take the medicine or something. [00:26] DaemonFC So the law empowers that person to be detained, after a judge signs off on it by a case by case basis. [00:27] DaemonFC The Health Department can't just order everyone to stay in their homes and all businesses to shut down because of a nasty cold going around.

[01:28] DaemonFC It's clear that they want to stop paying these rates ASAP. [01:28] DaemonFC So they only offer them on a "wait and see" basis of 6-9 months. [01:29] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: They want deposit money but don't want to commit to paying high rates for years. [01:30] DaemonFC If rates are still high in 9 months, roll it over and we'll try again. [01:30] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: I don't know how things work in the UK, but here anyone can buy T-Bills. [01:31] DaemonFC So if the rates on those are higher than CDs at the end of the 9 months you may just want to loan it out to the government on a short term basis. [01:35] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: Whatever's going on or not going on with the car, at least I got it smog tested before this started. [01:35] DaemonFC I can drive it a few years even if it's not worth fixing. [01:35] DaemonFC If you get pulled over with a plate you can't get renewed that's a crime and because I'm white the court won't just drop it and move on. [01:35] DaemonFC Or not do anything if I fail to appear. [01:35] DaemonFC Like it would for "some people". [01:36] DaemonFC So at least I have a while before then.

[04:30] schestowitz[TR] insurance is not a discount [04:30] schestowitz[TR] you buy insurance [04:30] schestowitz[TR] it is part of the scam [04:30] DaemonFC To get swabbed for flu by a physician's assistant. [04:30] schestowitz[TR] so you are missing the point [04:30] schestowitz[TR] your salary goes to this "plan' [04:30] schestowitz[TR] and it's not enough [04:30] schestowitz[TR] the 20 is the "penlty" [04:31] schestowitz[TR] for not going "far enough" [04:31] DaemonFC They say it "encourages you to be responsible" in your use of medical care.

[04:33] schestowitz[TR] DaemonFC: tip for you [04:33] schestowitz[TR] work [04:33] schestowitz[TR] w [04:33] schestowitz[TR] save [04:33] DaemonFC It was going to be like $20-something if I used a GoodRX coupon, so I just used the insurance. [04:33] schestowitz[TR] keep national insurance [04:33] schestowitz[TR] get the exemption [04:33] schestowitz[TR] then you get nhs de facto free [04:33] DaemonFC What is the "exemption"?

[04:51] DaemonFC LOL [04:52] DaemonFC Worse than dad beating a dog in the backyard and pouring banana ketchup on it I'm sure. [04:53] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: As much as it saddens me to say this, Indiana's counties don't even run doctor's offices in their health department. [04:53] DaemonFC So they have even less than this. [04:54] DaemonFC I go to the doctor about 3-4 times a year. [04:54] DaemonFC My insurance is a lot better. [04:55] DaemonFC I'm following my doctor up into another State when she leaves this practice. [04:55] DaemonFC The hospital system is falling apart here and is about to be taken over by the county in an "emergency" capacity. [04:55] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: Some hospital network bought it out in July and stopped paying the doctors. [04:56] DaemonFC Half of them have left. [04:56] DaemonFC My guess is they bought it to put it in distress so the county would have to pay more than they got it for. [04:57] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: Here's the logic. [04:57] DaemonFC Buy it cheap. Create a crisis. [04:57] DaemonFC Government has to pay almost any price or there's no hospital for miles and miles (also their doctor network which covers the entire city!), creating a political disaster. [04:59] DaemonFC "Hindenburg alleged that when the Opera browser continued losing users (due to competition from Google and Apple), the company shifted gears to building mobile apps that provided predatory short-term loans. The interest rates on those loans ranged from 365-876% per year, and loan terms from 7-29 days.

[07:37] DaemonFC A newly released VHS might cost over $20 and that's over $20 in the 1990s, so you're talking probably at least $45-50 today just for one tape. So almost everyone in the country just got in the car and rented tapes overnight for $2.50 and copied them to a blank tape for maybe another $3.

In 1996, the Republican presidential front-runner, Bob Dole, routinely mocked the then-Egyptian U.N. secretary-general by stretching out the syllable of his name, Booooutros Booooutros-Ghali, while assuring American voters he would never yield [07:53] DaemonFC sovereignty to the foreign statesman.

[08:00] DaemonFC It makes the job easier for the prosecutor later. [08:01] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: You'll find that the cops don't care what's true. [08:01] DaemonFC They just care what saves them from work. [08:02] DaemonFC For every cop that turns off his body camera and kills someone. [08:03] schestowitz[TR] cops are dangerous because [08:03] schestowitz[TR] low paid [08:03] DaemonFC For each cop that tortures people into confessing. [08:03] schestowitz[TR] no pride in the job [08:03] schestowitz[TR] sometimes racist [08:03] schestowitz[TR] often lazy [08:03] DaemonFC There's 100 that will never be dealt with who are much more insidious. [08:03] schestowitz[TR] and having views on groups [08:03] schestowitz[TR] so there is bias pre-built [08:03] DaemonFC Because they operate in a way where nobody will ever see a smoking gun. [08:03] schestowitz[TR] when you appear on the scene, as a cop, there is alrrready bias [08:03] schestowitz[TR] i have a friend who is black and stopped some criminal [08:03] schestowitz[TR] sat on him till police came [08:03] schestowitz[TR] the cops attacked my friend [08:04] schestowitz[TR] who stopped the criminal [08:04] schestowitz[TR] and had done nothing wrong [08:04] DaemonFC I stopped a criminal and sat on him until the police came. [08:04] schestowitz[TR] he was of the "wrong"' colour [08:04] schestowitz[TR] in manchester [08:04] DaemonFC Luckily although they investigated both of us, he's the one going on trial next month. [08:04] schestowitz[TR] ah, your ex [08:04] schestowitz[TR] mjg was a victim of DV [08:04] DaemonFC I knew when they demanded to take pictures of my hands they were seeing if I bruised him by punching him or something. No bruises on the knuckles. [08:04] schestowitz[TR] he said [08:05] DaemonFC Me, hurt very badly. [08:05] DaemonFC Him, not hurt at all. [08:05] DaemonFC They investigated me quickly and cleared me of any wrongdoing. [08:05] schestowitz[TR] sounds like pseudoscience [08:05] schestowitz[TR] tyhe knuckle thhhing [08:05] DaemonFC I specifically avoided striking him back because I knew they would likely arrest both of us when they got there. [08:06] DaemonFC It would make it impossible to tell who the victim was if there were any marks on him, so I subdued him and waited for the police. [08:06] DaemonFC It was terrifying because he was trying to get back up so he could continue hurting me. [08:07] DaemonFC And I saw this madness in his eyes. [08:07] DaemonFC Like he was going to kill me and run before I could call 911. [08:08] DaemonFC So while I was injured I was able to restrain him and call 911 and keep him subdued until they got there. [08:08] DaemonFC He tried to say I attacked him but he was unharmed. [08:08] DaemonFC So it was obviously a lie. [08:08] schestowitz[TR] liar, too [08:08] schestowitz[TR] sorry for the joke, but [08:08] schestowitz[TR] here is the gulagboy modus [08:09] schestowitz[TR] which he shares with his parner [08:09] schestowitz[TR] you know rishi sunak? [08:09] schestowitz[TR] he raped me [08:09] schestowitz[TR] if he denies it, that's a lia [08:09] schestowitz[TR] if he said weee never met, he lies again [08:09] schestowitz[TR] just proof that he is immoral [08:09] schestowitz[TR] and i am a woman [08:09] schestowitz[TR] if you don't believe me, you are a transphobe [08:09] schestowitz[TR] and a "nazi" [08:09] schestowitz[TR] if you are a women, a "teft" [08:10] DaemonFC I think you mean TERF [08:10] schestowitz[TR] always believe the woman (me) [08:10] schestowitz[TR] that's what they do to people [08:10] schestowitz[TR] you have to accept insanity and lies [08:10] schestowitz[TR] while they strip naked in front of high-profile men [08:10] schestowitz[TR] and then try to tear them down [08:10] schestowitz[TR] DaemonFC: yes, it was a typo [08:10] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: You may have noticed that I'm not "close" to any trannies. [08:10] schestowitz[TR] and they are still at it [08:10] DaemonFC It's because they're literally all like this. [08:11] schestowitz[TR] now gulagboy does 'toots" about tape [08:11] schestowitz[TR] *rape [08:11] schestowitz[TR] someone told him somethinhg [08:11] schestowitz[TR] so he knows "100%" it's true [08:11] DaemonFC It's not because they disgust or horrify me. [08:11] schestowitz[TR] he was not a witness [08:11] DaemonFC It's because they're toxic people. [08:11] schestowitz[TR] maybe it is true [08:11] DaemonFC They're the victim of everything and everyone. [08:11] schestowitz[TR] but this is how those people work and think [08:11] schestowitz[TR] accuse people of rape [08:11] schestowitz[TR] in public [08:11] schestowitz[TR] based on hearsay [08:11] schestowitz[TR] whiel buffy strips naked in front of men [08:11] schestowitz[TR] it's in court documents [08:12] schestowitz[TR] she is connected to graveley [08:12] schestowitz[TR] and nat friendman [08:12] schestowitz[TR] who allegedly shows up naked in parties [08:12] schestowitz[TR] appelbaum lived with graveley [08:12] DaemonFC Why? [08:12] schestowitz[TR] attention deficit? [08:12] schestowitz[TR] if you lose yoiur marbles [08:12] schestowitz[TR] then delete your name [08:13] schestowitz[TR] and impose censorship [08:13] schestowitz[TR] on what you did [08:13] schestowitz[TR] start all over [08:13] DaemonFC I mean why would Applebaum live with him. [08:13] schestowitz[TR] sharing space [08:13] schestowitz[TR] no idea why exactly [08:13] DaemonFC This is why you don't want a roommate. [08:13] DaemonFC If you're lucky they'll just be weird. [08:14] *danse-nr3 (~danse@151.57.0.37) has joined #techrights [08:14] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR]: I don't go around screaming HOMOPHOBE at _everyone_. There are some people who are. [08:15] DaemonFC But generally people assume based on what the "usual" situation is. [08:15] schestowitz[TR] old: [08:15] schestowitz[TR] today rianne and i checked gulagboy's twitter account [08:15] schestowitz[TR] this suggested he had gone insane [08:15] schestowitz[TR] mental problems [08:15] schestowitz[TR] no uni should let him lecture on things he lies about [08:15] schestowitz[TR] His baseline is insanity: he is a sociopath. However there very well might [08:15] schestowitz[TR] be additional problems on top of that foundation. No wonder he is steered [08:15] schestowitz[TR] into attacking FOSS projects [08:15] schestowitz[TR] I'm concerned that most universities have become peddlers of fraud and snake-oil [08:15] schestowitz[TR] in regards to computing. Here there is not a single school left in which [08:15] schestowitz[TR] one can learn actual ICT, as far as I can tell. Hence the founding of Hive [08:15] schestowitz[TR] but that's not a university and is just a feeder for Supercell. [08:15] schestowitz[TR] yes, many are trainng centres [08:15] schestowitz[TR] aws etc. [08:15] schestowitz[TR] So if the situation is even remotely similar over there, it is not a surprise [08:15] schestowitz[TR] that they pay him to lie. [08:15] schestowitz[TR] If even training centers. Most don't even have hands on work. So neither [08:15] schestowitz[TR] theory nor hands-on, what's left other than bullshit? [08:15] DaemonFC So if you say you're married, people will say "Oh, does your wife want an eye exam too?" [08:15] schestowitz[TR] DaemonFC: some people are "HOMOPHOBES" [08:15] schestowitz[TR] and you an shout "HOMOPHOBE" at them [08:15] DaemonFC Or if you say "My spouse is in surgery." They say, "Oh, what's she having done?" [08:15] schestowitz[TR] same for jew haters like Ontario Criminal [08:15] schestowitz[TR] but you need not to overuse the labels like "HOMOPHOBE" [08:16] schestowitz[TR] i bet you mjg was a HOMOPHOBE in cambridge [08:16] schestowitz[TR] as an adult [08:16] schestowitz[TR] and now hide behind his beard [08:16] schestowitz[TR] who may be having an actual beard now [08:16] schestowitz[TR] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beard_(companion) [08:16] TR Bot Beard (companion) - Wikipedia [08:16] DaemonFC Well, Lobsta is a homophobe and a racist, and a lot of other things.

[08:18] DaemonFC :D [08:18] schestowitz[TR] and people become "TRANSPHOBE" [08:18] schestowitz[TR] like cops and courts [08:18] schestowitz[TR] just seeing how lozza behavesss [08:18] schestowitz[TR] and sadly kaniini failed to see all that [08:18] schestowitz[TR] and believed lies [08:18] schestowitz[TR] lozza was banned as a man [08:18] schestowitz[TR] lozza was banned as a woman [08:18] schestowitz[TR] for abusive behavious [08:18] schestowitz[TR] nothing changed [08:19] schestowitz[TR] you can come back with fewer body parts [08:19] schestowitz[TR] and still be banned [08:19] schestowitz[TR] not because of genitals [08:19] schestowitz[TR] a faulty brain is not a genital [08:20] schestowitz[TR] same for the whole ilk [08:20] schestowitz[TR] and its ringleaders in particular [08:20] schestowitz[TR] mjg is one of the ones formerly manning twitter [08:20] schestowitz[TR] until musKSA took over [08:20] schestowitz[TR] put an end to it [08:20] schestowitz[TR] prooomoted worse crap [08:20] schestowitz[TR] some fascist stuff [08:20] schestowitz[TR] old: [08:20] schestowitz[TR] Accusing people of bestiality at random seems to be pretty much like something mjg59_ would do.

Besides, in this day and age there are products. [08:24] DaemonFC It's amusing that men have to suffer every indignity including being labeled as incels for not wanting sex or just using a toy or porn or something. [08:24] schestowitz[TR] they still try to censor you [08:24] schestowitz[TR] and to dox you [08:24] DaemonFC Instead of going near toxic people and trash and diseased trash.

If your financial performance is good and your shares go DOWN, there's also something utterly wrong (rogue, rigged) in the stock market. Welcome to post-2008 "economy". [17:39] DaemonFC > Justice Richard Mosley found that the Freedom Convoy protests, which were convened to oppose COVID-19 vaccination requirements, did not rise to the level of a public order emergency. [17:39] DaemonFC > Mosleys reasons for judgment stated that the Canada-wide proclamation of a public order emergency was erroneous. The act stipulates that emergencies are events beyond the capacity of provinces to handle and that cannot be dealt with under any other Canadian law. The justice said the dismantling of the Coutts blockade in Alberta, which did not employ Emergencies Act provisions, demonstrated that other Canadian laws were sufficient to address protest- [17:39] DaemonFC related disruptions and that only the situation in Ottawa was beyond the scope of provincial capacity. [17:39] TR News This title is pure hogwash; "internal report" just means COVER-UP https://siliconangle.com/2024/01/25/no-intentional-deception-found-cruises-handling-october-accident/ [17:39] TR Bot intentional deception found in Cruise's handling of October accident - SiliconANGLE [17:40] DaemonFC Mosley also concluded that the Freedom Convoy protests did not constitute a public order emergency. The definition of a public order emergency requires the event to pose threats to the security of Canada, as defined in Section 2 of the CSIS Act. Explaining his findings, the justice said that, despite the discovery of firearms and ammunition in Coutts, while certain aspects of the protests would have been sufficient to meet a test of threats [17:40] DaemonFC to the security of Canada harm being caused to Canadas economy, trade and commerce did not constitute threats or the use of serious violence to persons or property as required by the CSIS Act. [17:41] DaemonFC The court also ruled that the federal government violated participants freedom of expression and freedom from unreasonable search and seizure under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Because the regulations resulting from the Emergencies Act invocation criminalized participation in a public assembly that may reasonably be expected to lead to a breach of the peace, Mosely found that the free expression rights of nonviolent and [17:41] DaemonFC unobtrusive protesters were infringed.

[17:42] DaemonFC What went on in Canada under Trudeau was a crackdown befitting a country like Haiti or something. [17:42] DaemonFC Further, the court concluded government violated the Charter rights of convoy participants who had their bank accounts frozen. Mosley ruled that the federal governments order empowering banks to freeze the accounts of those violating the emergency regulations and directing banks to provide violators information to the RCMP constituted an unreasonable search and seizure. The justice reasoned that the freezing of accounts constituted a seizure [17:42] DaemonFC and that the order to provide the RCMP with blockade participants banking information was a search. Mosley held that the searches and seizures were unreasonable as they were not carried out according to an objective standard.

[23:48] DaemonFC MinceR: What I want to know is this. [23:48] DaemonFC How was Brandon Lobster in a proper state of mind to pick up on transphobia from the police if he admits he was having weed psychosis at the time? [23:49] DaemonFC Did he stop having weed psychosis long enough to notice the transphobia, or is he saying that while in a severely deranged state of mind he was fit to say there was obviously some transphobia from the arresting officers? [23:49] MinceR :) [23:50] DaemonFC They have a "medical" card in my state. [23:50] DaemonFC It's basically so losers and criminals don't have to pay taxes while they sit there frying their brain on drugs. [23:51] DaemonFC Of course, if you have a medical card and also possess a firearm, it's instant damning evidence of being in possession of a firearm while using marijuana, which is a felony. [23:51] DaemonFC Federal, even. [23:52] DaemonFC Serious business. [23:53] DaemonFC MinceR: So if you have a medical marijuana card and then answer no on the 4473, and then they find you with a gun, then you have a felony for being a marijuana user while in possession of the gun and making a false statement to the ATF, which is another year in prison for lying on the background check form AFTER your marijuana card was issued, and for EACH TIME you did that. [23:54] DaemonFC If you bought five guns after your medical marijuana card was issued, that's five counts of felony possession of a gun while being an active user, plus five counts of Making False Statements to a government official. [23:55] DaemonFC In the federal system, although Misdemeanors (making false statements to a federal official) each cap at a year, they can give you a year for each offense, unlike at the state level where they have to turn to alternative punishment after no more than 364 days in jail for whatever misdemeanors are on the indictment together. [23:56] DaemonFC So in this "Buying five guns after the date of issue of the marijuana card." example, you could go to prison for up to 20 years. [23:56] DaemonFC 15 for possession of a gun while using marijuana and 5 years for making five false statements. [23:56] DaemonFC But if you just bought weed at the dispensary, paid cash, and walked out with it, there's no evidence that you ever used weed. [23:57] DaemonFC Because they don't put your name down as the customer. [23:57] DaemonFC So paying a tax can actually avoid evidence of a felony being on the record. [23:58] DaemonFC The feds could still charge possession of a gun by a weed user, but they'd have to find other evidence. [23:58] DaemonFC Like getting you to admit it. [23:59] DaemonFC https://www.reuters.com/legal/drug-user-cannot-be-barred-owning-guns-us-court-rules-2023-08-10/ [23:59] TR Bot ( status 401 @ https://www.reuters.com/legal/drug-user-cannot-be-barred-owning-guns-us-court-rules-2023-08-10/ ) [23:59] DaemonFC Oh okay, except in the Fifth Circuit. [23:59] DaemonFC Where having a gun as a weed user isn't a crime, but there are very few states where having weed isn't a crime, and none with a recreational use law.
