[00:05]	TR Bot	 A Social Security Gun Ban, Part 2? | GOA
[00:05]	DaemonFC	Yeah, don't get a medical marijuana card if you ever want to own a gun.
[00:05]	DaemonFC	If you get a medical card, you get added to the NICS "deny" list.
[00:05]	DaemonFC	If you just go in and buy some with cash, they don't do that. That's also taxed, but you know, it's your choice.
[00:06]	DaemonFC	Get a card, go on "lists" where the government takes away your civil rights so you don't lose a few bucks here and there to a tax.
[00:06]	DaemonFC	You know who else liked lists? The Nazis. The Soviets.
[00:07]	DaemonFC	They liked "lists".
[00:10]	DaemonFC	https://www.gunowners.org/a-massachusetts-police-officer-talks-about-how-an-unpaid-traffic-ticket-could-result-in-a-gun-ban/
[00:10]	TR Bot	 A Massachusetts Police Officer Talks About How an Unpaid Traffic Ticket Can Result in a Gun Ban | GOA
[00:13]	DaemonFC	"The Department of Justice reported in 2012 that 19.1% of denials (13,862) were as a result of being a fugitive from justice.  That category sounds ominous until you consider that unresolved, out-of-state traffic issues are one of the most common forms of bench warrants that can result in your becoming a fugitive from justice."
[00:14]	DaemonFC	Well, the ex that abused me would be denied under NICS for having the outstanding arrest warrant, even if they never catch him.
[00:14]	DaemonFC	they'd see an outstanding arrest warrant from Illinois for "domestic violence" until whenever he decides to come down here and clear it up.
[00:14]	tmg1|michelson	DaemonFC: no they didn't. you're going on ignore for that statement. i have 0 tolerance for antivaxxers
[00:15]	DaemonFC	Why didn't the four shots help me?
[00:15]	DaemonFC	You take Hepatitis vaccines, you don't ever get Hepatitis.
[00:15]	DaemonFC	You take four COVID shots and you get COVID, it makes you sick and in terrible pain for a month, and nearly kills you.
[00:16]	DaemonFC	And then they tell you that you were a fluke while you know a dozen people who didn't take any shots and barely noticed the COVID and were over it in days.
[00:16]	DaemonFC	These shots are seriously fucking people up.
[00:16]	DaemonFC	It's doing something to people where the ones that get the shots get hurt worse when they eventually get COVID.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	It's more government fuckery.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	Pfizer's "COVID products" sales have collapsed and they fire people.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	They can't convince 5% of Americans to get "this year's shot" so they fire people and then dole out executive bonuses again.
[00:18]	DaemonFC	Go back to erections and hair loss.

[00:24]	DaemonFC	"Also in 2016, the ATF retrieved more than 4,000 firearms from gun buyers who the agency later determined should have been blocked by NICS.  Amazingly, an ATF report concluded that:
[00:24]	DaemonFC	ATF agents did not consider most of the prohibited persons who had obtained guns to be dangerous and therefore did not consider it a priority to retrieve the firearm promptly."
[00:24]	DaemonFC	Yeah, they know NICS is bullshit.
[00:24]	DaemonFC	Seriously, you can be Brady disqualified over a $5 parking ticket 30 years ago.
[00:28]	DaemonFC	https://www.theblaze.com/news/2013/02/26/u-s-gun-laws-retroactively-barred-this-vietnam-vet-from-owning-a-firearm-because-of-a-teenage-misdemeanor-45-years-ago
[00:28]	TR Bot	 Vietnam Vet Barred From Owning a Gun Because of a Teenage Misdemeanor 45 Years Ago | Blaze Media
[00:28]	DaemonFC	Yeah, don't get arrested, but if you do.......
[00:28]	DaemonFC	Take a diversion program. Take court supervision. Take anything that's not a conviction.
[00:29]	DaemonFC	Then expunge it the day you are eligible to petition the court.
[00:30]	DaemonFC	In this case, "Punching a guy in 1968." put a veteran who had legally bought and sold guns for 42 years on the NICS list in 2008 because of the "NICS Improvement Act".
[00:30]	DaemonFC	In the 1960s, there were not as many "first time offender" programs or "the court doesn't want to deal with this shit so we'll say you weren't convicted if you agree to some punishment" programs.
[00:31]	DaemonFC	So he was probably fucked to begin with once he got down there.
[00:31]	DaemonFC	He could plead guilty and be convicted, or be convicted by a jury and do jail time.
[00:31]	DaemonFC	Because all of the gun control acts....
[00:32]	DaemonFC	They say "CONVICTION". You must not have been "CONVICTED" of this, this, or that. Right?
[00:32]	DaemonFC	So like, if you don't want to be Brady Disqualified, you can go make a deal with them. It was something that's not on that list. It's a Supervision. It's a Supervision and it's not on that list.
[00:33]	DaemonFC	So really, I am not Brady Disqualified.
[00:33]	DaemonFC	I pass the NICS background check all the time.
[00:34]	DaemonFC	But a guy with a parking ticket from Chicago in 1986...He goes down to buy a gun, they say "Did you know you're a fugitive?"
[00:34]	DaemonFC	If people realized how bullshit the gun laws are in America, their jaw would hit the floor.
[00:35]	DaemonFC	Because these laws are designed to stop "a certain type of criminal", and you know, those people get a lawyer and navigate things, meanwhile some guy with a parking ticket or has a medical card for his arthritis? It's right there in the law.
[00:35]	DaemonFC	No fugitives!
[00:36]	DaemonFC	I know at least one person in another State who should be Brady Disqualified and they're not. It's because the feds have no idea what's going on.
[00:40]	DaemonFC	The whole idea of the government is to ensnare as many people as possible with bullshit like this to keep everyone too afraid of them to do anything.
[00:40]	DaemonFC	They litter all these laws around.
[00:40]	DaemonFC	Don't pay a parking ticket? You're on the NICS list.
[00:41]	DaemonFC	Protest the government and you're on Social Security? They'll book you into the jail for a day to cause the SSA to take it away for several months.
[00:41]	DaemonFC	It's designed to crush opposition.
[00:42]	DaemonFC	I don't know, ultimately, how the SAFE-T Act is any "less racist" than what they did before.
[00:42]	DaemonFC	They'd come up with bail and then when you paid it and showed up for court, they would take it away anyway.
[00:42]	DaemonFC	They go "$162 for the police retirement fund. $300 for inmate healthcare. $247 for the teacher's union..."
[00:43]	DaemonFC	Then the rest would be "a fine".
[00:43]	DaemonFC	Oh look, it's gone.
[00:44]	DaemonFC	So like, what happens now? They cut them loose right away and then when they convict them there's still all these fees.
[00:44]	DaemonFC	Because the court makes people pay for having their life ruined "as part of the punishment".
[00:44]	DaemonFC	Then the State sees running the court as "free" because anyone they scrape up and haul in there is paying for it.

[04:26]	DaemonFC	schestowitz, I know of a trans person nearby. Goes around wearing short sleeves.
[04:26]	DaemonFC	9 long scars. 5 on the right arm. 4 on the other arm. I feel very sad when I see this person. I don't even know what happened.
[04:27]	DaemonFC	The last thing I want to see is people hurting themselves. I have no idea what can snap where people start doing something like that.
[04:28]	DaemonFC	The idea of attacking your own body and the pain, the idea of the pain, well it makes me recoil in horror anyway. That's a basic self-defense mechanism. People associate the idea of injury with the idea of pain and they do things to prevent injury.
[04:29]	DaemonFC	When the mental executive has broken down to the point a person can't even feel pain anymore, it's obvious that they need an intervention.
[04:30]	DaemonFC	Depression raises the pain threshold, but I don't even know how bad the depression would have to be to turn it off entirely.
[04:30]	DaemonFC	It's one of those things that's wrong with the world that I don't want to think about, but people are walking around, very broken, doing things like burning trash and sticks in the middle of the road.
[04:31]	DaemonFC	Because society is breaking down and it's to that level where nobody even responds to it.
[04:33]	DaemonFC	I'm looking at therapy if I can even get in with someone because I'm tired of seeing this shit and it's everywhere and it's affecting me.
[04:34]	DaemonFC	And it's making it come out in all sorts of weird ways when I interact with people.
[04:35]	DaemonFC	It bothers me that I'm not in a position to change anything but I have to look at it, and I have to look at the people who are in charge of everything and don't care that there are people cutting themselves and burning trash in the middle of the street to stay warm.

[05:09]	TR Bot	stream 1 was not closed cleanly before end of the underlying stream ( status 0 @ https://archive.ph/g6P3N )
[05:10]	DaemonFC	"Google likely alters queries billions of times a day in trillions of different variations. Heres how it works. Say you search for childrens clothing. Google converts it, without your knowledge, to a search for NIKOLAI-brand kidswear, making a behind-the-scenes substitution of your actual query with a different query that just happens to generate more money for the company, and will generate results you werent sea
[05:10]	DaemonFC	rching for at all. Its not possible for you to opt out of the substitution. If you dont get the results you want, and you try to refine your query, you are wasting your time. This is a twisted shopping mall you cant escape."
[05:11]	DaemonFC	"Its also a guaranteed way to harm everyone except Google. This system reduces search engine quality for users and drives up advertiser expenses. Google can get away with it because these manipulations are imperceptible to the user and advertiser, and the company has effectively captured more than 90 percent market share.
[05:11]	DaemonFC	"
[05:11]	DaemonFC	"Its unclear how often, or for how long, Google has been doing this, but the machination is clever and ambitious. I have spent decades looking for examples of Google putting its enormous thumb on the scale to censor or amplify certain results, and it hadnt even occurred to me that Google just flat out deletes queries and replaces them with ones that monetize better."
[05:12]	DaemonFC	"The next time you Google, remember that youre getting search results that have been skewednot to help you find what youre looking for, but to boost the company's profits."

[07:42]	DaemonFC	"Covid shots may slightly increase risk of stroke in older adults, particularly when administered with certain flu vaccines
[07:42]	DaemonFC	"
[07:42]	DaemonFC	And Pfizer is doing a combo? Very interesting.
[07:42]	DaemonFC	"accines for Covid-19 and influenza may slightly increase the risk of strokes caused by blood clots in the brains of seniors, particularly when the two vaccines are given at the same time and when they are given to adults who are age 85 and older, according to a new study."
[07:43]	DaemonFC	"In additional analysis of the Medicare claims data, the FDA researchers found a very slightly increased risk of stroke in adults ages 65 and older whod only gotten a high dose flu shot. In absolute terms, the extra risk from high-dose flu shots amounted to 1-2 strokes for every 100,000 doses.
[07:43]	DaemonFC	The absolute risk is miniscule, said Dr. Steve Nissen, a cardiologist and researcher at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. I mean it is trivial in comparison to the risk for people over 85 of dying from Covid."
[07:43]	DaemonFC	So Medicare is peddling disinformation now? They say giving the flu shot and the COVID shot at the same time is unnecessarily dangerous?
[07:43]	DaemonFC	:)
[07:44]	DaemonFC	If you are going to get both shots, I'd recommend two trips to the pharmacy at least two weeks apart.
[07:46]	DaemonFC	schestowitz, The COVID "vaccines" worked so well that I was sick for a month, nearly died, and my entire mouth turned white and ached so bad I was on pain pills every eight hours.
[07:46]	DaemonFC	And on the couch all last December so I wouldn't wake Mandy up writhing in pain.
[07:46]	DaemonFC	Which I'm sure will make some people happy to think about.
[07:46]	DaemonFC	But it happened.
[07:46]	DaemonFC	And I'm not going to lie and say the vaccines worked well.
[07:46]	DaemonFC	They didn't.
[07:47]	DaemonFC	And if anyone thinks I didn't take 4 of them and one was bivalent, I still have my vaccination card.
[07:48]	schestowitz	the boy who cried "solf"
[07:48]	schestowitz	1) first shot
[07:48]	schestowitz	1) secnd shot
[07:48]	schestowitz	3) booster
[07:48]	schestowitz	and now only 5% of americans take covid shots
[07:49]	DaemonFC	schestowitz, Based on what I knew and when I knew it, the shots were a reasonable risk.
[07:49]	DaemonFC	It was a calculated risk.
[07:49]	DaemonFC	But at this point I know enough to know I won't be taking more.
[07:49]	schestowitz	it was not a risk to the companies
[07:49]	schestowitz	becUSE THEY
[07:49]	schestowitz	signed secrecy deals
[07:49]	DaemonFC	Yeah, they cleaned up.
[07:49]	schestowitz	they signed waivers
[07:50]	schestowitz	so they could only profit
[07:50]	schestowitz	maybe tarnish their brand
[07:50]	schestowitz	but that was the sole risk
[07:50]	DaemonFC	They offloaded all the risk to the government vaccine injury program, which is slow walking it and only paid 3 people in the country even though we know the vaccines probably injured over a million.
[07:51]	DaemonFC	The V-SAFE data up to September 2022, which was not even all the people who took the shots, said at least 750,000 Americans who got a COVID shot had to go to the urgent care or the ER due to the effects.
[07:51]	schestowitz	people who are close to me reacted badly to it
[07:51]	DaemonFC	So it's definitely over a million COVID shot injuries when you consider it's been more than a year since that data and it was a fraction of the total people who got a shot who participated.
[07:51]	schestowitz	maybe half of them
[07:51]	schestowitz	could not walk, could not eat
[07:51]	schestowitz	vomiting too
[07:51]	schestowitz	half of them
[07:52]	schestowitz	and their doctors said it did the same to others
[07:52]	schestowitz	it's not random twitter accounts
[07:52]	schestowitz	or some youtuber with camera
[07:52]	DaemonFC	It made Mandy sleep and call off work for over 3 days.
[07:52]	schestowitz	those are not numbers
[07:52]	schestowitz	those are people i know
[07:52]	DaemonFC	Then I had to help him to the shower over 3.5 days later.
[07:52]	schestowitz	and family
[07:53]	schestowitz	some of them even cautioned us to wait
[07:53]	DaemonFC	He smelled to high heaven and hadn't eaten since Sunday and it was Wednesday night.
[07:53]	DaemonFC	So like, these fuckers that tell me the vaccines are "safe" and "effective" when I know it wasn't safe for Mandy or effective for me...
[07:53]	schestowitz	they did not test
[07:53]	schestowitz	pfizer did not test
[07:53]	schestowitz	for efficacy
[07:54]	schestowitz	it admitted this in EU parl
[07:54]	schestowitz	it is on video
[07:54]	schestowitz	never mind safety aspects
[07:54]	schestowitz	lots of marketing and online censorship
[07:54]	schestowitz	marketng includes paid-for disinformatoin
[07:54]	schestowitz	you pay, they publish

[18:26]	tmg1|michelson	lol
[18:26]	tmg1|michelson	nobody's perfect
[18:26]	schestowitz	so he is not interested in UNIX philosophy
[18:26]	MinceR	well, dehomag paid for it, didn't they
[18:27]	tmg1|michelson	i mean, really gnu's not unix should have given a hint abou that
[18:27]	MinceR	that used to mean something else
[18:27]	MinceR	but i'm sure some suit at dehomag came up with this idea
[18:28]	MinceR	"it doesn't mean that it's not historical unix, it means that it was always meant to be a windows imitation, with a macOS GUI imitation on top of it!"
[18:28]	ZedHedTed	why would he be against systemd as long as it stays free software?
[18:28]	MinceR	it never was free software
[18:29]	MinceR	and if he could be bothered to read what he wrote about what free software is, this would be blindingly obvious to him as well
[18:29]	MinceR	but nowadays the tFSF is just off-brand OSI
[18:33]	MinceR	in free software, there is no "Gentoo folks, this is your wakeup call."

[18:38]	MinceR	maybe "windows 12" will be a systemd/Linux distro and MICROS~1 will pay rms to advertise "windows 12"

[18:39]	MinceR	yeah, i wonder if they'll stop at poisoning all Linux-based systems
[18:39]	schestowitz	so I guess with STORE at the top
[18:39]	MinceR	or they'll try to attack free BSD-s too
[18:39]	schestowitz	the bits further down will be more or less like android
[18:39]	schestowitz	the same base

[18:39]	schestowitz	Microsoft already hoired LP for this
[18:39]	MinceR	gentoo can't afford to fork Linux
[18:40]	MinceR	Linux is a massive, bloated mess
[18:40]	tmg1|michelson	ok maybe not gentoo
[18:40]	tmg1|michelson	but for the longest time, linus was the one potn of contact
[18:40]	MinceR	no GNU/Linux distro can

[18:41]	MinceR	even making fixed releases is trouble
[18:41]	tmg1|michelson	google successfully forked it
[18:41]	MinceR	google has lots of money available, and they didn't change that much in it, afaik
[18:41]	tmg1|michelson	their changes were big enough
[18:41]	MinceR	they added a few features, they didn't unfuck it

[21:21]	DaemonFC	It's strange that cisgender doesn't appear in my 2001 dictionary, but it does have definitions of male and female.
[21:21]	DaemonFC	I should hold onto this.
[21:28]	DaemonFC	Let's see what the 2009 dictionary has to say about this.
[21:28]	DaemonFC	2009 Webster's Dictionary
[21:28]	DaemonFC	MALE
[21:28]	DaemonFC	Male, a. Etym: [F. mle, OF. masle, mascle, fr. L. masculus male,
[21:28]	DaemonFC	masculine, dim. of mas a male; possibly akin to E. man. Cf.
[21:28]	DaemonFC	Masculine, Marry, v. t.]
[21:28]	DaemonFC	1. Of or pertaining to the sex that begets or procreates young, or (in a wider sense) to the sex that produces spermatozoa, by which the ova are fertilized; not female; as, male organs.
[21:28]	DaemonFC	2. (Bot.)
[21:29]	DaemonFC	Defn: Capable of producing fertilization, but not of bearing fruit; - - said of stamens and antheridia, and of the plants, or parts of plants, which bear them.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	3. Suitable to the male sex; characteristic or suggestive of a male; masculine; as, male courage.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	4. Consisting of males; as, a male choir.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	5. (Mech.)
[21:29]	DaemonFC	Defn: Adapted for entering another corresponding piece (the female piece) which is hollow and which it fits; as, a male gauge, for gauging the size or shape of a hole; a male screw, etc. Male berry (Bot.), a kind of coffee. See Pea berry. Male fern (Bot.), a fern of the genus Aspidium (A. Filixmas), used in medicine as an anthelmintic, esp. against the tapeworm. Aspidium marginale in America, and A. athamanticum in South Africa, are used as goo
[21:29]	DaemonFC	d substitutes for the male fern in medical practice. See Female fern, under Female. Male rhyme, a rhyme in which only the last syllables agree, as laid, afraid, dismayed. See Female rhyme, under Female. Male screw (Mech.), a screw having threads upon its exterior which enter the grooves upon the inside of a corresponding nut or female screw. Male thread, the thread of a male screw.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	MALE
[21:29]	DaemonFC	Male, n.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	1. An animal of the male sex.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	2. (Bot.)
[21:29]	DaemonFC	Defn: A plant bearing only staminate flowers.
[21:29]	DaemonFC	---
[21:30]	DaemonFC	Heh, seems Webster's pretty much nailed it in 2009.
[21:30]	MinceR	https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/895/558/f1a.gif
[21:31]	DaemonFC	There is also no entry for "Cisgender" in the 2009 Webster's English Dictionary.
[21:32]	DaemonFC	Maybe copyright law will keep us safe from "Cisgender" for some more decades.
[21:32]	DaemonFC	Or any funny ideas that they get about what men are.
[21:33]	DaemonFC	Let's look under T in Webster's 2009 English Dictionary.
[21:35]	DaemonFC	TRANSPECIATE to TRANSPICUOUS
[21:35]	DaemonFC	But no "Transphobia".
[21:35]	DaemonFC	So according to Webster's English Dictionary in 2009, you can accurately define "male", but "Cisgender" and "Transphobia" are not words.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	TRANSFUSIVE to TRANSGRESS with no "Transgender" in Webster's English 2009.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	So in the 2009 Webster's English dictionary, we have "Male", but not "Cisgender", "Transgender", or "Transphobia".
[21:37]	DaemonFC	There simply was no entry for these words in 2009.
[21:38]	DaemonFC	"Rewriting the dictionary again."
[21:38]	DaemonFC	But yeah, in 2009 nobody cared enough to even put this crap in the dictionary.
[21:38]	DaemonFC	The most widely used dictionary in the world, I believe, for English.
[21:40]	DaemonFC	No "Transsexual".
[21:40]	DaemonFC	But Eunuch is defined.
[21:44]	DaemonFC	Time Traveler
[21:44]	DaemonFC	The first known use of transphobia was in 1992
[21:45]	DaemonFC	Time Traveler
[21:45]	DaemonFC	The first known use of homophobia was in 1964
[21:45]	DaemonFC	See more words from the same year
[21:46]	DaemonFC	So both are in this year's dictionary.
[21:46]	DaemonFC	So Webster's didn't include any of this in 2009 even though it admits they had already been in use for a while.
[21:47]	DaemonFC	Homophobia, as a word, is almost 60 years old.
[21:47]	DaemonFC	Nobody invented "transphobia" until about 31 years ago.
[21:47]	DaemonFC	This is probably an example of bootstrapping.

[21:48]	MinceR	how dare they?!
[21:48]	DaemonFC	Lobster seems to be too mean to me in a lot of ways.
[21:48]	DaemonFC	I had not even heard the word "homophobia" until at least the mid 2000s.
[21:49]	DaemonFC	I'm sure that the word existed a long time before that, but it's like North Korea. They keep you from hearing a word for it while they're busy doing it.
[21:49]	MinceR	kinky
[21:49]	DaemonFC	So I was in my 20s before I even had a word to describe what was being done to me.
[21:50]	DaemonFC	Even though the word apparently had been in print somewhere since 1964.
[21:50]	DaemonFC	It's amazing that the powers that be can prevent you from hearing a word for over forty years.
[21:51]	DaemonFC	I still don't think anyone has said "homophobia" on any TV shows or movies I've seen.
[21:51]	psydroid2	Firefox is turning into Chromium, it has bigger and bigger memory leaks
[21:51]	psydroid2	I just had to kill it because my machine had become unresponsive
[21:52]	MinceR	that's what killing XUL off was all about
[21:52]	DaemonFC	"If you want to be stubborn, maybe talk like they did in the King James Bible."
[21:52]	DaemonFC	Thou art surely jesting.
[21:53]	DaemonFC	I don't know. Maybe I'm just having a moment where it's all sinking in what's happened to me.
[21:53]	DaemonFC	What they actually spent 40 years doing.
[21:54]	DaemonFC	"Words change."
[21:54]	DaemonFC	People are a product of their era.
[21:55]	DaemonFC	Mine was probably the 90s. Regardless of how bad that decade actually was to me in some ways.
[21:55]	DaemonFC	That is the entire point of "getting to the children" and "educating them".
[21:56]	DaemonFC	Being horrible to people just makes them recalcitrant, you know.
[21:56]	DaemonFC	That's a good word. Look that one up.

[22:00]	DaemonFC	The King James Bible seems to me to be designed to be spooky and nonsensical.
[22:00]	DaemonFC	The Contemporary English Version is a lot easier to read.
[22:01]	DaemonFC	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contemporary_English_Version
[22:01]	TR Bot	 Contemporary English Version - Wikipedia
[22:01]	DaemonFC	"The CEV uses gender-neutral language for humanity, though not for God."
[22:05]	DaemonFC	"What is internalized homophobia?"
[22:06]	DaemonFC	So if you honestly believe I have this problem, then why don't you help me rather than make horrible remarks? Don't Internet trolls just try to burn things without having a serious discussion with people?
[22:09]	DaemonFC	It's plausible. You know, riding along in the car with my dad shouting at the radio (Rush Limbaugh) about "faggots destroying the world" probably did have lingering effects along with everything else.
[22:14]	DaemonFC	"Oppositional Defiant Disorder"
[22:14]	DaemonFC	This is a diagnosis for children.
[22:17]	DaemonFC	"ok so actually they just liked it better when these things were not better known then. it has fuck all to do with science or english for them."
[22:17]	DaemonFC	That's actually not true.
[22:17]	DaemonFC	I had not been thinking in terms of language changing. I had also not considered active efforts to suppress this for not wanting to piss people like my parents off.
[22:18]	DaemonFC	I compared a 2009 dictionary not having a definition for "gay" or "homosexual" or "homophobia" to North Korea.
[22:18]	DaemonFC	They just censor it out of the dictionaries, from the schools, from the medical literature, and from their national Internet.
[22:19]	DaemonFC	And it works a little better in North Korea because they're so repressive that they prevent anyone from coming into contact with any ideas that haven't been filtered by the Communist Party.
[22:19]	DaemonFC	But suffice it to say, we've obviously had the same problem here and it angers me to think about that now.

[22:20]	DaemonFC	The same thing that would gradually happen if North Koreans had access to the worldwide Internet tomorrow.

[22:21]	DaemonFC	They want to take that control back now that they realize what they've done.
[22:21]	DaemonFC	The US government is trying to ban non-corporate chat programs and encryption that actually works.
[22:21]	DaemonFC	This is why.
[22:22]	DaemonFC	Mind control, spying, etc.
[22:22]	DaemonFC	You seem to have no idea why and how much I hate my government.
[22:23]	DaemonFC	It exercised almost Soviet-like control over the population until the Internet opened things up that it could easily censor out previously.
[22:24]	DaemonFC	You don't really have to have so much in the way of violent crackdowns if you control how people think.
[22:24]	DaemonFC	That's why the US was a little better, but people can't use freedom of speech if they only know a certain way to speak.

[23:46]	TR Bot	 Re: [coreboot] ASUS KCMA-D8 workstation board port offer
[23:47]	DaemonFC	"I did
[23:47]	DaemonFC	not pay the KCMA-D8 contract which was 15k. Timothy's email implies
[23:47]	DaemonFC	that I barely paid any of it. The D8 was a mere extension on top of
[23:47]	DaemonFC	the D16 and was a few weeks work for Timothy. The article also implies
[23:47]	DaemonFC	that I was unwilling to pay the remaining 15k. I was actually *unable*
[23:47]	DaemonFC	to pay. Big difference. I fully paid for the KGPE-D16 contract, and
[23:47]	DaemonFC	D16 is all that Minifree sells. Most people don't use D8 and it wasn't
[23:47]	DaemonFC	viable to sell. I would also like to point out that several
[23:47]	DaemonFC	organisations now use the KGPE-D16 with libreboot. This includes the
[23:47]	DaemonFC	Free Software Foundation, to host their websites. I personally
[23:47]	DaemonFC	sacrificed a lot to pull that off. I find it deeply insulting that
[23:47]	DaemonFC	Timothy causes all this fuss about the D8. The D8 port was also
[23:47]	DaemonFC	missold to me. I was lead to believe that the hardware was readily
[23:47]	DaemonFC	available when it wasn't (unlike D16 hardware), so the work for the D8
[23:48]	DaemonFC	was more or less a waste of resources."
[23:48]	DaemonFC	---
[23:48]	DaemonFC	So?
[23:48]	DaemonFC	If I tell a contractor to perform work for me and then later say that the work turned out to be unnecessary, that doesn't actually hold up because a deal's a deal.
[23:49]	DaemonFC	I can't say, "Hey, can you come over to my house and redo the bathroom?" Then when they show up and redo everything on the list go "Well, I'm not going to pay you for the sink because I came to believe that the sink was unnecessary, and I had to go to another country to get surgery. Don't you even care if I can eat and pay my mortgage?"
[23:49]	DaemonFC	I mean, that's just not going to fly.
[23:50]	DaemonFC	If I signed a deal saying "The bathroom will be completely remodeled, for this price, including the sink." I don't get to complain about the sink, and NO the contractor does not care if I can afford groceries. He's not my mother.
[23:50]	DaemonFC	-----
[23:51]	DaemonFC	Did the FSF agree to pay for the work or did Leah Rowe say they would pay for the work and what was the actual agreement? Because the public disagreement that spills out reflects badly, to me at least, and not on the part of the contractor who wrote the code that was requested.
[23:52]	DaemonFC	I've actually worked with contractors before btw, and they tend to be awful, so it's possible I'm just not seeing the entire picture here.
[23:53]	DaemonFC	They show up whenever they feel like it, they do work as they feel like it. They'll tell you it's a one week project and then you're on the phone with them in a month going "Where is it?"
[23:53]	DaemonFC	In general. I mean obviously they probably aren't all like that.
[23:53]	DaemonFC	But I've seen more than a few who are.
[23:54]	DaemonFC	My mother hired one, once, to do a bathroom. The guy says "Oh yeah, I can bust that out while you're on vacation. You'll love it." They came back, the guy hadn't even been there.
[23:54]	DaemonFC	Three months later after telling the guy this was the last straw. Bathroom or refund, or else. He finally showed up and did an excellent job.
[23:54]	DaemonFC	So like, very unreliable.
[23:55]	DaemonFC	The FSF should probably be paying contractors directly if they want code to run a server for gnu.org or something and having Free firmware on that server is important enough for them.
[23:56]	DaemonFC	I can't possibly see how it would be worth $90,000 for two boards because well, I mean, what does firmware do?
[23:56]	DaemonFC	It initializes the computer and hands over to the OS.
[23:56]	DaemonFC	The user doesn't really interact with it.
[23:57]	DaemonFC	I know I said my next system will probably be System76, and Free firmware would be a huge selling point on that, for me. Why?
[23:57]	DaemonFC	Well, it's not precisely about whether the firmware is Free or not. I could care less. But UEFI is so horrible. It's full of bugs. "Secure Boot" is a trap that the user will eventually have no control over.
[23:58]	DaemonFC	Right now, how is UEFI affecting me?
[23:58]	DaemonFC	Other than a million print-to-screen "FIRMWARE BUG" garbage (but Debian runs fine, lol) and "Secure Boot" which I can turn off entirely, and have, not affecting me much.
[23:58]	DaemonFC	But I'd much rather have something competently designed where the trap door won't be shut after I bought the stupid thing.
[23:59]	DaemonFC	And so there is value in System76 ensuring that I can buy the computer and it will run Linux.
[23:59]	DaemonFC	IBM has a solution to UEFI "FIRMWARE BUG!" crap on the screen.
[23:59]	DaemonFC	Paint over it with the bootsplash so the user never sees it.
