~60kilograms at a body height of 187cm [00:01] nobody funnily, while i was studying at Telekom university, those trainers seeked to continue coordination of university training with sports [00:02] nobody and one of those proposed i may do a little more swimming again, if it wasn't enough to cycle each day on empty stomach [00:03] nobody in 2005 i quit, 2009 i recovered, and did swim again, ~20km per week, 7km/3hours, not too bad, but again too much for the nutritional intake [00:03] nobody i even quit smoking completely for an entire year, live was good again [00:04] nobody after i left Telekom and their HQ contracting, i decided to do jobs, bureaucracy had cut my income down to zero for 8 weeks [00:04] nobody i barely had anything at all to eat [00:04] nobody 2006 [00:05] nobody because, i refused to register for social service, and with their accounting tricks they ignored the simple facts there was entire two month of nothing [00:05] nobody Leipzig, they could simply have placed me on a wage, to check my weight and body hight [00:06] nobody but of cause, that's all my fault, becaue my stomach got filled with cola, coffee, and nicotine into the brain [00:07] nobody well, i am no holy saint, and in memory of my work at geriatric hospital i didn't bother too much with health to arrive at a certain age [00:08] nobody they never bothered to ask about my "psychological condition", year 2001, after service in hospital palliative care yard [00:08] nobody government considers to re-introduce "mandatory military service", and "social service" for those who deny military [00:08] nobody this "social service" was compensated far below minimum wage, that's why [00:09] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [00:09] nobody then again, at the end of your terms, they did another few accounting tricks, in between the military or social service, you got a month or two until studies or job training begin [00:09] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [00:10] nobody if that's two month, this timefrime was considered insufficient to pay social security whatsoever, so you got none at all, after you've worked for a year in geriatric hospital for below minimum wage [00:10] nobody even when you denied military service, you had to visit their military draft medic, some pervert who inspects your balls and anus [00:11] nobody that was, german, year 2000 [00:13] nobody for the record, i got officially diagnosed pendulum testicles, hence i may not drive a car among military, or wherever else this got registered [00:14] nobody since i told the germany military draft officer straight into his face: "no i won't serve this", 20 years ago [00:14] nobody my mother had warned me, if i denied military service in "re-united germany", that got registered for your entire life, and they'll deny you on each opportunity they can, with disrespect [00:15] nobody finally, it did medical service for red cross, that's in essence those who wipe dying elderies or dying solders arse, no big difference imo [00:15] nobody and i am not excited to do it ever again [00:16] nobody but those who brag about their military attitude, could have reconsidered who would have wiped their blood and shit, i won't [00:18] nobody i do respect police, or military, the reason i denied military service were total distrust into the political system, due to their insane propaganda and lies ever since my brain grew sufficient in size as a teenager [00:19] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [00:19] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [00:19] nobody since when i watched daily news, that's what i remember of "re-unification", it was Yugo war, Iraq war and intifada bombings in Israel [00:20] nobody and i don't want to get dragged into any of it, i decided to not have any children ever, so none of them could get dragged into it again [00:21] nobody most german soldiers sent to afghanistan, that was east-germans, according to hear-say, as lowest ranking possible [00:22] nobody my mother's partner who died at the age of 50, was a soviet tank operator, but my memories are blurry, and i can't ask what his military rank was, since he is dead [00:23] nobody he too was considered "unemployable", although i was fluent(!) in russian language, german language of cause, and some engineering training [00:24] nobody that got a little rusty, since GDR mechanics didn't have latest greatest CAD software in 1970s [00:24] nobody nonetheless, they constructed land surface mining machinery, unseen in history before [00:25] nobody his retirement plan, vodka, and a heart stroke at 50 [00:25] Sompi_ You don't need an engineer's degree to build machinery that works

IsambardPrince i don't remember the white-house rioters were carrying guns, most didn't i think, or am i mistaken? [00:41] IsambardPrince Some were but the guy that went back to prison was sent back on a separate offense. [00:41] IsambardPrince Which happened while he was on bail for the rioting. [00:41] IsambardPrince The felon in possession was because he had a felony for strangling his girlfriend in 2017. [00:44] IsambardPrince MinceR, I was singing the Horst Wessel song while reading about that one that got shot and killed. [00:44] IsambardPrince I can do that because I'm not German. [00:44] IsambardPrince Of course I was singing it in mockery. [00:44] IsambardPrince Not seriously. [00:44] IsambardPrince But German law doesn't care. [00:45] MinceR lol [00:45] MinceR german law is about to get a lot worse this year [00:45] MinceR i wonder if you're allowed to sing the Wolfenstein 3D main theme though [00:46] MinceR probably not [00:46] IsambardPrince I know very little German. [00:46] MinceR though i think they eventually made some totally bastardized version of the game for germany... [00:46] IsambardPrince Just playing around with Duolingo. [00:46] MinceR which probably had the same soundtrack [00:47] IsambardPrince Yes, there's a German game and the international version. [00:47] IsambardPrince But it was unbanned in Germany so you can play the real one now. [00:47] MinceR i wonder if the afd will re-ban it because "oh no, they're killing the poow widdle nazis in that game!" [00:48] Sompi_ In Finland it just became illegal to say that the holocaust may not have happened exactly in the way that it is described in the schoolbook version of history [00:49] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [00:49] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [00:54] IsambardPrince The Holocaust may not have happened exactly the way the Finnish schoolbooks say it did. [00:55] *IsambardPrince runs off singing the Horst Wessel song. [00:55] *includeals has quit (Quit: ZNC - https://znc.in) [00:55] MinceR what if someone finds two schoolbooks in finland describing the holocaust differently? [00:55] MinceR (from each other, that is) [00:55] *includeals (~includeal@2001:8a0:e974:da00::1d7f) has joined #techrights [00:56] IsambardPrince Then they are both correct because the government published both of them. [00:56] IsambardPrince And it's a crime to say it happened any other way except those books. [00:57] IsambardPrince Dery doy [00:57] IsambardPrince *Der [00:57] MinceR but if you say anything about the parts that differ, you can agree with at most one of them, which means you're contradicting the others, which is illegal [00:58] Sompi_ Doublethink. [00:58] MinceR crimethink [00:58] Sompi_ They both are true. You must doublethink. [00:59] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [00:59] Sompi_ There is no contradiction because you can always doublethink it. [00:59] MinceR :> [00:59] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [00:59] MinceR what if there are 3 conflicting schoolbooks? ● Jan 28 [01:00] Sompi_ Then you can have two levels of doublethinking. [01:00] MinceR not triplethink? [01:00] Sompi_ No triplethinking necessary. [01:00] IsambardPrince https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/jan6-rioter-held-canada-antony-vo-1.7442444 [01:00] TR Bot Jan. 6 rioter detained in Canada drops asylum claim | CBC News [01:00] MinceR or even multithink [01:01] Sompi_ Just doublethink is enough, you can do it recursively. [01:01] Sompi_ Things must be kept simple. Triplethinking will be removed from the next version of the newspeak dictionary. [01:01] IsambardPrince "Vo's lawyer, Robert Tibbo, says his client was among the Jan. 6 rioters who were recently pardoned by U.S. President Donald Trump, which is why he's dropping his asylum claim and wants to return home. [01:01] IsambardPrince But the CBSA said in a letter to immigration and refugee officials last week that Vo was not among those pardoned and that this had been confirmed with U.S. officials. " [01:02] Sompi_ Triplethinking will be obsolete and it will never have been existed. It will be replaced with recursive doublethink. [01:02] MinceR lol [01:02] MinceR multithink seems simpler than levels upon levels of doublethink [01:07] *Disconnected (Remote host closed socket). [01:07] *Now talking on #techrights [01:08] IsambardPrince MinceR, Mr. Vo should come back to Indiana. [01:08] IsambardPrince Take a drive through Jasper County. [01:08] IsambardPrince :D [01:08] IsambardPrince Maybe end up like that other guy and die doing what he loved. [01:09] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [01:09] IsambardPrince Anyway, Canada is obviously not going to let him stay. [01:09] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [01:09] IsambardPrince If the DOJ under Trump says he wasn't pardoned, it means he was not pardoned. [01:10] IsambardPrince And he will be going to prison for a while once we have him. [01:10] IsambardPrince Obviously not all the stuff he did was covered under the pardon.

LOL [01:17] MinceR lol [01:17] IsambardPrince Someone is mocking them for trying to take half of Illinois. [01:17] IsambardPrince Indiana set up a "commission" on annexing downstate Illinois. [01:17] MinceR you need a more grand plan for Great Indiana though [01:17] IsambardPrince For it to be legal, the Illinois and Indiana legislatures would have to agree to it and then so would Congress. [01:18] IsambardPrince MinceR, A 3 day Special Military Operation. [01:18] MinceR can't you just do it the New Dark Ages way? [01:18] MinceR send some armed convicts across to kidnap babies and kill civilians until you get what you want [01:18] IsambardPrince MinceR, First, Indiana has the National Guard come in but says it's not them. [01:18] IsambardPrince They take off their patches. [01:18] MinceR lol [01:18] IsambardPrince Then once they're in, they set up an "election". [01:19] IsambardPrince After deporting the people they don't want and guarding the voting booths with green men with machine guns. [01:19] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [01:19] IsambardPrince To ensure election integrity, naturally. [01:19] IsambardPrince Then they can have a military parade, complete with a giant Larry Bird float. [01:19] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [01:20] IsambardPrince MinceR, Obviously Illinois will retaliate by annexing Northwest Indiana, and by that point Indiana will be in an agreement to send in West Virginians to supplement their ranks. [01:21] IsambardPrince Nobody will be able to understand them when they speak, on either side, leading to friendly fire incidents. [01:21] MinceR not northwest indiana! that's where the gulf of indiana shoreline is! [01:21] IsambardPrince And then they'll get priority for the hospital beds. [01:21] IsambardPrince We're taking it back. [01:22] IsambardPrince Along with US Steel and the Greater Hammond/East Chicago/South Bend region. [01:22] IsambardPrince West Virginia fits in because their economy is bad and they'd probably resort to mercenary work. [01:24] IsambardPrince MinceR, It wouldn't be a bad trade honestly. All the counties of Northern Indiana bordering Illinois, Michigan, and Ohio, in exchange for downstate Illinois. [01:25] IsambardPrince We'd get all the good stuff from Indiana, they'd get all the crap Illinois doesn't want and become the poorest State. [01:26] IsambardPrince The people in those counties don't like being part of Indiana any more than downstate Illinois wants to be lumped in with Chicago. [01:26] IsambardPrince They're fairly centrist or left-leaning. One of the few parts of Indiana that still is. [01:27] IsambardPrince There's been some conservative bloggers complaining that state lines don't change with political realignments. [01:27] IsambardPrince What they mean is they wish they could steal parts of other people's states and annex them, but the law forbids that.

[22:28] IsambardPrince It locked States out of their Medicaid payment portal. [22:28] IsambardPrince And panicked and infuriated many people. [22:28] IsambardPrince A federal judge in DC issued an emergency injunction this afternoon. [22:29] IsambardPrince My mother is not happy about this. She was panicking that it was going to cause them to lose food stamps, my brother's Medicaid, and a program that pays for her Medicare premiums. [22:30] IsambardPrince I told her the time to worry about that was in the voting booth. [22:30] IsambardPrince So it looks like the US will be limping by on court ordered spending and continuing resolutions and debt ceiling fights and national emergencies and so on for the next 4 years. [22:31] IsambardPrince So much the same, except at this point the courts have to decide if they're willing to let him usurp Constitutional spending power delegated to Congress, and ALSO the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. [22:32] IsambardPrince The Constitution makes it clear the only power the President has to spend is to sign or veto the budget bills, in full. [22:32] IsambardPrince And Clinton v. City of New York seems to back this up. [22:33] IsambardPrince In that case, SCOTUS struck down the Line Item Veto Act and ruled that it was Congress that had the power over federal spending, not the President, and that even an Act of Congress that allowed the President to rescind funding could not change that. [22:33] IsambardPrince It's a good thing too. Does anyone have to imagine what Trump could do with a Line Item Veto? [22:34] IsambardPrince He'd sign the funding for the military and ICE and gut all the spending programs he didn't like with rescissionary vetoes. No need for an executive order that isn't legal. [22:34] IsambardPrince At the time, a Line Item Veto seemed to make sense. After all, Congress passes a lot of dumb spending and everyone knows it. [22:35] CrystalMath El Trumpo is the biggest douchebag on the planet [22:35] IsambardPrince A President who is genuinely concerned with good government could rescind funding accordingly, but Trump would use it to remake government in his own image. [22:36] IsambardPrince For example, if I was the President, about 90% of the federal budget would be signed into law, and all the "We crammed that in for my district to get a vote on the Omnibus and go home for the MONTH of Christmas." stuff would be rescinded. [22:36] IsambardPrince But I'm not a maniac who would try to tear everything down just to see it burn.

[23:47] IsambardPrince It also claims it doesn't apply to any "mandatory spending". [23:47] IsambardPrince Which could be most of what he claims is frozen, since Medicaid portals went down in all 50 States despite being mandatory spending. [23:49] MinceR did you expect the members of the nazi party to be able to figure out what mandatory spending means?

[23:54] Sompi_ What nazi party? [23:54] IsambardPrince Mandatory spending includes Social Security and Medicare, Medicaid, ACA premium subsidy credits, and Ryan White Act grants. [23:55] IsambardPrince I'd be surprised if he could freeze more than 10% of the discretionary budget legally. [23:55] IsambardPrince Discretionary budget doesn't mean it's not mandatory spending. [23:56] IsambardPrince It means that it doesn't go on unless Congress appropriates money, and they have. [23:56] IsambardPrince But the President is required to spend it. [23:56] Sompi_ Maybe the purpose is to save at least something [23:56] IsambardPrince There's just not a lot of legal authority for the President here. [23:57] IsambardPrince Between the Constitution and the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. [23:57] Sompi_ He probably knows it already [23:57] IsambardPrince He can freeze some appropriations for up to 60 days while he asks Congress to rescind it. [23:57] IsambardPrince But if they don't, he still has to pay it all out retroactively. [23:57] IsambardPrince The EO does not cite any legal authority. [23:58] IsambardPrince If he wanted to do a 60 day freeze he'd have to cite the Impoundment Control Act. [23:58] IsambardPrince He is also not making any argument in the EO that the Impoundment Control Act is unconstitutional. [23:58] IsambardPrince He's made no statement at all. [23:59] IsambardPrince A better way to frame the EO, the way I would do it, is by stating a case for why the Impoundment Control Act is unconstitutional, and funds are being rescinded accordingly. [23:59] IsambardPrince Then they would duke it out in court and SCOTUS would rule on that. It never has. [23:59] MinceR Sompi_: they call themselves "republican" even after abolishing the republic
