Conan! What is best in life!?

DaemonFC

Conan:To crush the remake, see its actors driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the producers!

DaemonFC

---

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

The remake deserved to flop.

MinceR

DaemonFC

The company probably made more money suing bittorrent users than it did on sales.

DaemonFC

That's how bad it was.

https://forward.com/fast-forward/574619/palestinian-protest-doctors-against-genocide-holocaust-museum-washington/

DaemonFC

It's rare, not unheard of, but rare, to see a major movie production company put lawyers after people that are so rapacious they border on Prenda Law.

Dec 27 00:12

DaemonFC

But Conan and The Hurt Locker are two good examples of this happening.

Dec 27 00:13

DaemonFC

The Dallas Buyer's Club as well.

Dec 27 00:14

DaemonFC

There they made a movie that was at least not terrible.

Dec 27 00:14

DaemonFC

Republicans like my parents who voted for Ronald Reagan downplay what the AIDS pandemic response of the administration was. It was effectively a holocaust. They didn't necessarily cause it, but they also didn't mind that it was happening, so the feds didn't lift a finger to help. They didn't even suggest using condoms.

Dec 27 00:16

DaemonFC

And so they deride movies like this or "And the Band Played On" as "liberal tripe".

Dec 27 00:16

DaemonFC

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Pro-Palestinian group cancels protest at US Holocaust Museum – The Forward

Dec 27 00:17

DaemonFC

The modern Democratic Party shares a lot in common with Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.

Dec 27 00:18

DaemonFC

If you go back to the 1980s, it was the American Nazi Party that was marching against the Jews in Illinois and protesting outside the holocaust museum there.

Dec 27 00:18

DaemonFC

You flash forward to today, it's people like Ariadne.

Dec 27 00:18

DaemonFC

Most decent Americans were appalled by what was going on with the ANP and Skokie at least tried to stop the demonstrations with ordinances and court action to make it more difficult.

Dec 27 00:20

DaemonFC

But the Nazis eventually won the court case and went on the march and now it's the liberals and some of the Jews even, who have the same sort of demonstrations, at the same places, in favor of some of the same types of people.

Dec 27 00:20

DaemonFC

There's few good things I have to say about the Nazis, very few. Possibly one of the few things I'll give them credit for is they had some very sharp uniforms.

Dec 27 00:21

DaemonFC

It made a distinct impression, very good for the propaganda I'm sure.

Dec 27 00:21

DaemonFC

You get Trump's supporters out and they're in sweatpants and rascal scooters not sharply designed uniforms with creases. So they don't even have that.

Dec 27 00:22

qrpnxz

I'm being threatened online for reading and agreeing with a couple of techrights articles. Nevermind that you have little good to say about Nazis, supposedly techrights is Nazi. I've yet to see any evidence of that.

Dec 27 00:24

MinceR

maybe sharp uniforms wouldn't even be that effective today

Dec 27 00:25

DaemonFC

I was very impressed with the U-Boat I went through, and it was just an IXC.

Dec 27 00:26

DaemonFC

One of the first ones to go into service around 1940. Not even their most advanced ones from late in the war.

Dec 27 00:26

DaemonFC

They make good stuff in Germany. It's not surprising they were about 20 years ahead of us in submarine designs.

Dec 27 00:27

MinceR

they make good stuff, just not good cars

Dec 27 00:28

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Type IX submarine - Wikipedia

Dec 27 00:29

DaemonFC

From the size of it outside you wouldn't expect the crew quarters to be as cramped as they were.

Dec 27 00:30

DaemonFC

On modern subs you get a lot of creature comforts. They can stay out there indefinitely, submerged, really quiet, go twice as deep. Everyone gets good food and showers and exercise equipment. No diesel fumes and crap, but I mean.... For the early 1940s, the IX was an impressive machine.

MinceR: I wonder why, exactly, France capitulated so quickly.

DaemonFC

Other than "It's France, what do you expect?"

DaemonFC

I mean, I know the Nazis had a lot of sympathizers in France.

DaemonFC

Enough to set up a collaborator government with, very quickly.

DaemonFC

Of course, the British would have ended up that way too probably, if they didn't benefit from the channel.

Dec 27 00:34

DaemonFC

Effectively a moat. Keeps the tanks from just rolling in.

Dec 27 00:34

MinceR

iirc their Maginot line failed and they couldn't counter the German's tactics effectively

Dec 27 00:44

DaemonFC

Yeah, the Ardennes.

Dec 27 00:51

DaemonFC

They figured it was impassable terrain so why defend that heavily.

Dec 27 00:51

DaemonFC

The Germans did encounter obstacles there obviously, but it was only enough to slow them down.

The junk removal people are coming.

Dec 27 01:13

DaemonFC

Finally I can get rid of this mattress that's making me hurt all over and unpack that one I grabbed on Amazon.

Dec 27 01:13

DaemonFC

I didn't really want one that had coils in it but it was the only mattress I could buy during COVID and didn't cost a ton.

Dec 27 01:14

DaemonFC

When they're all foam and you need rid of them you can just take your time and shred the foam up and dispose of it in bags until it's gone.

DaemonFC

Whenever the new one wears out I might just "upcycle it" and use it for bean bag chair stuffing.

DaemonFC

12" king size bed, I'll never run out.

DaemonFC

They sell shredded memory foam on Amazon for bean bag chairs and it's just the waste from making mattresses and pillows. Still quite expensive.

Dec 27 01:16

DaemonFC

It works better than polystyrene beads because it doesn't collapse as readily.

Dec 27 01:17

DaemonFC

The whole bean bag chair conspiracy is they get to sell you bean refills constantly.

Dec 27 01:17

DaemonFC

You know. The floor is more comfortable than that stupid couch from Bob's Discount Furniture.

Dec 27 01:19

DaemonFC

Damn.

Dec 27 01:19

DaemonFC

I might get something for the floor that just gives my ass some padding and something to pad the wall and call it a day.

Beats more garbage furniture that looks like it belongs in some sad dorm room.

Dec 27 01:20

DaemonFC

MinceR: They make it look nice in the showroom, and very reasonably priced.

Dec 27 01:22

DaemonFC

Then you go and sit on it one day and "CRUNCH".

Dec 27 01:23

DaemonFC

Not sure if the couch or me or both....

Dec 27 01:23

MinceR

"yum yum"

Dec 27 01:24

DaemonFC

MARISOL has some odd choices in restaurant dining. She recommended a diner as "very reasonably priced". Mandy and I went over there and it was not. Not only that, I could have done better at home with some eggs, Mary Kitchen canned corned beef hash, a bottle of Tabasco, and the cheapest bulk Utz coffee they sell.

Dec 27 01:28

DaemonFC

MinceR: I did look over the coffee gadgets at IKEA and some of them looked pretty flimsy and implausible.

Dec 27 01:28

DaemonFC

I did enjoy the YouTube video where that coffee guy bought one of each and actually demonstrated trying to use it.

Dec 27 01:29

DaemonFC

I think my favorite one was a pour over system that was just a goddamn funnel and a glass jar that had some markings, but they didn't tell you what the markings meant.

Dec 27 01:29

DaemonFC

It's like the worst pour over maker system I've ever seen where someone went to design it and decided to make it shout fuck you at the user every step of the way.

Dec 27 01:30

DaemonFC

What is the point of unmarked lines?

Dec 27 01:30

DaemonFC

Okay, even if it's in Metric tell me what the lines are in Metric so I can figure out how many Tablespoons of coffee grounds I need to reach that line.

Dec 27 01:31

DaemonFC

This reminded me of Scotty Kilmer going over a Volvo.

Dec 27 01:31

DaemonFC

He says, "And the stupid Swedes put the battery in the trunk."

Dec 27 01:32

DaemonFC

MinceR: I thought the battery cables on the Buick were horrible, until I saw that.

Dec 27 01:32

DaemonFC

They have to run the length of the car to get into the trunk. But the alternator is in the engine compartment.

DaemonFC

MinceR

MinceR

there are a bunch of cars with the engine in the front and the battery in the back

DaemonFC

Oh God.

MinceR

sometimes allegedly for mass distribution reasons

DaemonFC

I've never seen that in an American car.

MinceR

apparently Chevy HHR-s and Chevy Cobalts are like that

Dec 27 01:43

MinceR

in some cars there's not enough space beside the engine in the front for a battery

then you had the vectra, i think that was its name... all hand made from aircraft grade aluminum, engine red lined and 10,000 rpm, and they use the same vehicle in all the crash tests, it passed with flying colors.

They worked fine.

Dec 27 02:27

None of this plastic headlamp shit either.

Dec 27 02:27

MinceR: The Mexican guy pulled up in his van with a televangelist on the radio so loud you could hear him screaming Jesus Jesus Jesus!!! from hundreds of feet away.

Dec 27 02:36

Dec 27 02:36

DaemonFC

I told one of the junk removal people "Sounds like my grandmother's TV."

Dec 27 02:36

at least did it pronounce Jesús correctly, in Spanish?

There's something called Legacy Update for Windows XP.

DaemonFC

It actually finds drivers for almost anything there ever has been an XP driver for.

DaemonFC

And it doesn't need ActiveX.

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

It blows up Matt's plumbing.

DaemonFC

And hilarity ensues.

DaemonFC

Ralph Wiggums style.

Dec 27 02:52

DaemonFC

"Haha! I'm a plumber!"

Dec 27 02:52

DaemonFC

I understand how to fix certain issues on my car usually because they still built it mostly mechanical and very modular back then.

DaemonFC

So if a piece fails, you figure out what's making the noise or what the code is and you just throw that piece away and replace it.

DaemonFC

Today, I'd just be totally screwed.

DaemonFC

They're mostly software.

DaemonFC

They design the thing out of crap and plastic and of course plastic ages very well at extreme temperatures.

Dec 27 02:54

DaemonFC

Especially going from subzero temperatures to hundreds of degrees F in a matter of minutes repeatedly.

Dec 27 02:54

DaemonFC

Dec 27 02:54

DaemonFC

MinceR: The intakes on the Buick are fine! All they had to do to get the Dex-Cool gunk off them was sandblast a bit. They have that equipment laying around anyway because a lot of people drive GDI engines now that fill up the cylinders with carbon and don't run right.

Dec 27 02:55

DaemonFC

The gaskets needed replaced.

DaemonFC

Still, lots cheaper than if your intakes crack.

DaemonFC

That happens a lot easier with plastic than a big hunk of aluminum.

MinceR

lol @ sjw expecting physics to work on basics of social benefit

DaemonFC

Aluminum can crack at extreme temperatures, but there's a lot of old 3800s in a junkyard where the intakes didn't crack.

DaemonFC

So just replace yours with that.

DaemonFC

But you hardly ever see that.

Dec 27 02:57

DaemonFC

You have to get a major cooling system failure to see that.

Dec 27 02:57

DaemonFC

And if you don't want to mess with a junkyard, you could "downgrade" to plastic intakes.

Dec 27 02:57

DaemonFC

They won't last forever but they do tend to last 15+ years, and if the car's already 16....

Dec 27 02:58

DaemonFC

At this point you may even want to.

Dec 27 02:58

DaemonFC

Because if you've got to replace them anyway you might be able to get the weight of the car down with plastic and get a little better gas mileage.

Dec 27 02:59

DaemonFC

Which is one of the reasons GM went that way.

Dec 27 02:59

techrights-ipfs-bot

Dec 27 02:59

DaemonFC

As a rule of thumb, every 100 pounds of weight you remove from the car, your fuel economy goes up about 0.6%.

16" of foam, with at least 7" of the foam being memory foam is....MOAR foam than you get with the $1,800 Purple.

DaemonFC

I'm not even sure how Purple and Casper are in business. They've already managed to cause a bunch of reviews along the lines of "Boy did I get had. This is the worst mattress I've ever slept on." after the people lost $2,000 on one. And some of them were given FREE mattresses to review and said they hated it and now they had to figure out how to dispose of it.

So basically, people pay $2,000 for this, or they're supposed to, because of a brand.

It's pretty bad when you give someone your "premium product" for free instead of $2,000 for their "honest review" and then they honestly tell people "God damn it, now I have to get rid of this."

Notice of Data Security Incident

DaemonFC

We are notifying you of a recent data security incident involving your personal information. This notice explains the incident, steps Xfinity has taken to address it, and guidance on what you can do to protect your personal information.

DaemonFC

What Happened? On October 10, 2023, one of Xfinity’s software providers, Citrix, announced a vulnerability in one of its products used by Xfinity and thousands of other companies worldwide. At the time Citrix made this announcement, it released a patch to fix the vulnerability. Citrix issued additional mitigation guidance on October 23, 2023. We promptly patched and mitigated our systems.

DaemonFC

However, we subsequently discovered that prior to mitigation, between October 16 and October 19, 2023, there was unauthorized access to some of our internal systems that we concluded was a result of this vulnerability. We notified federal law enforcement and conducted an investigation into the nature and scope of the incident. On November 16, 2023, it was determined that information was likely acquired.

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

What Information Was Involved? On December 6, 2023, we concluded that the information included usernames and hashed passwords; for some customers, other information was also included, such as names, contact information, last four digits of social security numbers, dates of birth and/or secret questions and answers. However, our data analysis is continuing, and we will provide additional notices as appropriate.

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

What You Can Do. We strongly encourage you to enroll in two-factor or multi-factor authentication. While we advise customers not to re-use passwords across multiple accounts, if you do use the same information elsewhere, we recommend that you change the information on those other accounts, as well. You can review the “Additional Information” section below for information on how you can further protect your personal information.

There's really no good technical reason to drop PC BIOS support.

Dec 27 05:20

DaemonFC

It shouldn't even be considered for removal for any sort of distribution sane people would use until at least 2030.

Dec 27 05:21

DaemonFC

They were still shipping computers that effectively used it until at least 2011/2012 afaik because some of the UEFI on those things was too bad to be trusted, so they just forced it into BIOS CSM and tested those interfaces to the OS.

Dec 27 05:21

So the user can't take it out of that mode.

There becomes a point where nobody has one and you can't test it.

Dec 27 05:23

DaemonFC

You can't tell me there's no Debian developer with access to something that can be put in a BIOS-like mode to test out just to make sure it still basically works.

Dec 27 05:23

DaemonFC

I can still do that with my late 2016 Skylake laptop.

Dec 27 05:24

DaemonFC

As we move away from this there's going to be less and less certainty that everything you could potentially try to boot into Debian will work, but as long as it "should" and "probably" works, what's the harm in leaving it?

Dec 27 05:25

DaemonFC

There's probably more computers sold right this very minute that don't boot, in UEFI, because the code is such unbelievable absolute dogshit or because it's malicious.

schestowitz: The iPhone 15 must really not be selling well.

Dec 27 05:57

DaemonFC

T-Mobile just said they'd give me one reduced to $0 a month on the cheap plan I'm on now.

Dec 27 05:57

DaemonFC

Brandon Lobster switches between Windows 10 and an iPhone.

Dec 27 05:58

Debian dropping x86-32 as its own thing. Who cares? I don't.

Dec 27 06:00

DaemonFC

I was already using x86-64 when it was pretty new and people were like "Why are you using that? It's much easier to get Flash working on the 32-bit one. Who needs more than 4 GB of RAM? Who even has more than 4 GB of RAM? Justify your use case!"

Dec 27 06:00

DaemonFC

Nicolas Cage voice: "Two reasons. 1. This one has more general purpose registers. And 2. I have 8 GB of memory."

Dec 27 06:01

DaemonFC

"If I wanted to be stuck with 3.2 GB of usable RAM I could stay on shit-ass Windows XP. Thanks for playing."

Dec 27 06:02

DaemonFC

"Well, you need Windows to game."

Dec 27 06:03

DaemonFC

That old chestnut.

Dec 27 06:03

DaemonFC

Wasn't even really true 20 years ago, though the Linux side of things improves every year.

Dec 27 06:04

DaemonFC

It's not that there was nothing to play on Linux ~20 years ago. There were a lot of things to play. If it got a Linux port it was probably loved by its developer because there was little or no money in doing it at that point.

Dec 27 06:04

DaemonFC

They ran Linux, they wanted the game on Linux. They ported it expecting to break even at best.

Dec 27 06:05

DaemonFC

It was probably a decent game.

Dec 27 06:05

DaemonFC

Big budget games where they rush to get it out and then you realize it has 150,000 bugs in it and to get it playable the fans are going to have to go through patching this shitfest themselves after paying $70 a copy was generally what people complained didn't run easily.

Dec 27 06:06

DaemonFC

Bugs ruin games. As do higher price points when you're broke.

Dec 27 06:07

DaemonFC

Things that were actually play tested, which at least work, are often better than that.

Dec 27 06:07

DaemonFC

You go back to the 90s, every game almost was possible to play test, especially for things like the late 80s early 90s consoles.

Dec 27 06:08

DaemonFC

They did what they did and if it didn't do anything weird there, you knew it was working fine and went on.

Dec 27 06:08

DaemonFC

Sure there's bugs in some of them. They also tend not to matter.

Dec 27 06:08

DaemonFC

Like Minus World in Super Mario. There's only one really difficult way to get there, if you know about it, and you'd have to deliberately brick that session of the game to do it.

Dec 27 06:09

DaemonFC

Xorg having some bugs get fixed recently is "evidence that it's broken and obsolete and terrible".

Dec 27 06:10

DaemonFC

Do they ever find any bugs in GNOME? Firefox? Chrome?

Dec 27 06:10

DaemonFC

schestowitz: Alan Coopersmith is rewriting parts of the Xorg Server in Modern C..

Dec 27 06:10

DaemonFC

Because Fedora is flipping some switches in GCC and turning warnings into compile time errors.

Dec 27 06:11

DaemonFC

I'm not sure what the benefit of porting those sections to a modern version of C is. I read this "feature" and apparently you can still tell the compiler to ignore it as an "error" and continue building it.

Dec 27 06:12

DaemonFC

This code has worked for ~40 years. That code has never worked.

Dec 27 06:12

DaemonFC

It's a phenomenon I noticed when doing maintenance work on my cars.

Dec 27 06:13

DaemonFC

Sometimes you find a part and you go "That's cheap to replace. The one that's on it is old. I'll replace that part."

Dec 27 06:14

DaemonFC

Then it turns out that the one that came with the car in 1995 was working fine and the part they made in Mexico or China doesn't even last a month.

Dec 27 06:14

DaemonFC

So if I ever do something like this now, I save the original part, just in case.

Dec 27 06:14

DaemonFC

You never know where they get this crap from or what kind of penny pinching they've done.

Dec 27 06:15

DaemonFC

But....

Dec 27 06:15

DaemonFC

"This one works. That one has Never Worked."

Dec 27 06:15

DaemonFC

They never had the kind of quality control in Mexico or China that we had when things were made here.

Dec 27 06:16

DaemonFC

That's why you find 60 and 70 year old kitchen appliances that were made in America that still work fine and you buy a new GE percolator at Walmart and it blows up 6 months later.

Dec 27 06:17

DaemonFC

The mentality has shifted in corporate governance from one of "If you piss off your customer, he'll buy from the other guy." to "Fuck the customer. When this one blows up where else is he gonna go? All our competitors are operating as badly as us. LOL"

I think Harvey said "She" would buy an EV. I wish her all the frustration and sorrow that comes with that.

Dec 27 06:20

DaemonFC

Including a $15,000 battery you need and can't get in like 6 years when you're still making payments on it.

Dec 27 06:20

DaemonFC

Constantly looking at the range because you know there's no chargers and you'll break down if you're not careful.

DaemonFC

And even if you find a "fast" charger, good luck. Hope you have something to do when your car is charging "fast", for the next 2 hours.

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

MinceR: ^

DaemonFC

For people who never have to drive anywhere and mostly own an EV to brag about owning an EV, and have a lot of money to shovel in a furnace for this garbage and nonsense, more power to you.

Dec 27 06:22

DaemonFC

These EVs they sell now are a lot like that microwave that my dad bought in 1974 for $500 (in 1974) that could burn water.

DaemonFC

He never throws anything out so we had to use that fucker in the 90s.

DaemonFC

When I was a kid I'd toss a hotdog in it, turn the dial, and run behind the wall and cup my hands around my balls.

DaemonFC

DaemonFC

One year for Christmas, my parents got my brother this UFO toy that was really loud and obnoxious, so I threw it in the microwave and turned the dial and it light up all the lights and went "POP!" and then I tossed it back in his toybox and pretended to have no idea why it wouldn't work.

Dec 27 06:26

DaemonFC

My parents never wanted to fully invest in either one of us. Things were going mostly okay with me until they had my brother, then they realized that he was going to be so much more difficult and so much more not like THEY wanted him to be than I was, so they both threw in the hat and called it and we'll both be suffering for this, years after they both die.

Dec 27 06:29

DaemonFC

That's sort of what it feels like being an only child for so long and then your parents announce they're having another one. All their attention and "love" goes to the other one, and then when that one disappoints, they split and focus on their own vanity, selfishness, and narcissistic pursuits. And as bad as they were, neither one of them were a Brandon Lobsta.

Dec 27 06:31

DaemonFC

I really feel bad for both of his kids and I hope and pray for them (as an atheist, but just in case) that neither one of them gets the mental illness genes.

Dec 27 06:31

DaemonFC

And I'm not saying that the trans thing is itself the A-side of the double-feature.

Dec 27 06:32

DaemonFC

I'd probably figure it to be the B-side of a Borderline Personality starter.

Dec 27 06:32

DaemonFC

schestowitz: Idealization and devaluation are how Lobsta sees you.

DaemonFC

She wanted her a man man.

DaemonFC

Then when you were not warm to the idea, well.

DaemonFC

RAAAAAAGE!!!!!!

DaemonFC

And where does this go? You, your wife....Especially the wife.

DaemonFC

MinceR: I noticed while I was trying the bleached Great Value number 4s that they make my coffee a lot better than the Melitta number 4s.

Dec 27 06:46

DaemonFC

Melitta has thicker paper and "micro-holes" to "enhance the flavor" and I think something about this is making the coffee more bold, unbelievably bold, almost sort of a "Fuck you!" bold.

Dec 27 06:46

DaemonFC

The cheaper filters seem to make a better cup of coffee even though they're roughly the same size and shape.

"Under the Supreme Court’s Heck decision, a convicted party cannot seek § 1983 damages for unconstitutional conviction or imprisonment without first showing that the conviction or sentence has been reversed on appeal or otherwise declared invalid, such as by federal habeas relief.

DaemonFC

I think it strikes a happy balance between not enough filter (the permanent cone with the mesh) which gets too many oils, sediments, and sludge and grit in your coffee, and the Melitta and Brew Rite, which seem to cause slightly too much extraction and block some of the stuff you actually do want in the coffee.

DaemonFC

It seems the thinner paper is better.

DaemonFC

Technivorm seems to have optimized this machine a little too much in favor of overextraction vs. underextraction.

Dec 27 10:10

DaemonFC

So I think Walmart's filters accidentally nudge things back the other way a bit.

Dec 27 10:11

DaemonFC

Which is amusing because Technivorm has their own filters which they want to sell you that they claim are optimized for their machine.

Dec 27 10:11

DaemonFC

I wonder if they're doing the same thing and punishing you with overextracted coffee if you go off brand.

Dec 27 10:11

DaemonFC

It would be funny if they designed it as follows. "We think you'll like our filters better. Here's ten to get you going." Then you go "GAH! I'm not paying $8 for 100 filters. Are you out of your mind?" Then you get the Melitta or something for $3.74 per 100, got "Aghhh! What's wrong with these? Bitter coffee!"

Dec 27 10:13

DaemonFC

But all the while, the Moccamaster filters are better because they've been designed to use less paper, like the $2.92 Great Value.

DaemonFC

Less restrictive, you're back to lower extraction from filter resistance.

Mozilla keeps emailing about 'reclaiming the Internet' but I'd rather see it reclaimed from WhatWG/Mozilla... Firefox used to be good then they cloned Chrome's worst interface and removed RSS to replace that with 'pocket' advertising... at least in recent years they returned RSS but one can't use favicons with it anymore, so it's worthless

Wearing my CAD hat I just had a brief look at FreeCAD, but it seems to work very differently from traditional CAD software. The interface itself looks very basic and I wonder if it has all of the features needed for serious drawings.

Dec 27 18:49

psydruid

Closed source BricsCAD looks more inviting and traditional, so I could get some sample drawings done in it.

Dec 27 18:50

psydruid

And I should also look into OpenSCAD and BRL-CAD, which might have the power needed.

[12/27/23 6:25 am] <psydruid> Invading Guyana for oil isn't enough, they have to come to the US for a better $$$ life. They're the Middle Easterners of the Americas.

DaemonFC

Trump telling CBP to fire tear gas across the border is starting to make a lot of rational sense.

DaemonFC

At the time it seemed very disproportionate to the actual threat being posed.

Dec 27 22:01

DaemonFC

Now that they're swarming us by the millions, it seems like a very logical response. Unfortunately, nobody will do it, which is why Trump stands a good chance of winning.

Dec 27 22:01

DaemonFC

They're swarming in numbers where they know you can't get them all and even if you get some they'll just try again with the next swarm.

Dec 27 22:02

DaemonFC

So any "less lethal" crowd control option is starting to seem acceptable, justifiable, in my opinion.

Dec 27 22:02

DaemonFC

Obviously I don't support "trying" to kill people, but they should be strongly discouraged.

Dec 27 22:02

DaemonFC

Texas DoJ says that 24% of male "asylum seekers" are actually caught smuggling enough fentanyl to kill an entire town.

Dec 27 22:04

DaemonFC

SO I mean, yeah. "Refugees" and in the mean time, this trash bogs down our system and people who are applying the legal way have to wait longer and compete for employment with people who are openly breaking our laws

Dec 27 22:05

DaemonFC

I support Texas for trying to do something to keep them on the other side of the border. It's unfortunate that it is falling to a State government to be doing what the federal government is legally required to protect us from.

Dec 27 22:06

DaemonFC

Yes, this does fall under the "Insurrection and Rebellion" clause. The US Constitution says that States may "declare war" to repel an invasion if the federal government is unable or unwilling to protect them.

Dec 27 22:07

DaemonFC

So Texas is on solid Constitutional footing.

Biden is doing such an incompetent and terrible job as our President that he's basically sitting there fiddling while the country burns and breaks into separate nation states.

Dec 27 22:08

i hope Perens doesn't really want to do this on ShitHub

Dec 27 22:08

MinceR

it either won't happen or the redmond mafia will insist on being exempted from having to pay, in exchange for using ShitHub

DaemonFC

And if he thinks Microsoft and the rest of Corporate America is going to prop him up, good luck.

DaemonFC

They already supported Trump for allowing them to openly fuck the US taxpayers.

MinceR

DaemonFC: what do you think most of your presidents did?

DaemonFC

And now that they get back tax bills and antitrust cases from biden, they really want him gone.

MinceR

at least starting with nixon

https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/remember

DaemonFC

I think what will happen is there will be a shitstorm of dark money going to Republican super pacs, like we've never seen before.

Dec 27 22:10

DaemonFC

The people with the money want Biden gone yesterday because he's demanding taxes and enforcing competition laws. The only thing he IS doing for them is supplying them with cheap illegal immigrant labor to compete for low skill jobs.

Dec 27 22:11

DaemonFC

That's the only thing.

Dec 27 22:11

DaemonFC

He's made this calculation that the people working near the minimum wage who are citizens probably want Trump back.

Dec 27 22:12

DaemonFC

So he'll throw them into chaos and make it impossible to find work so they'll go homeless and can't vote/
