[05:33] DaemonFC I don't think the problem causing it to stick and clump together has anything to do with the rice. [05:33] DaemonFC I think it's that this is some $10 rice cooker that just ruins whatever you put in it. [05:34] lord_phanes i had an ex like that [05:35] DaemonFC lord_phanes: Donald Trump says he has a plan for the Palestinian protesters. [05:35] DaemonFC "Crack down on them." [05:35] DaemonFC :D [05:35] DaemonFC Maybe the prospect of Trump sending people in to bust their heads wide open and kill them dead will compel them to vote for Biden. [05:35] DaemonFC At least he's not doing anything at all. [05:36] DaemonFC Trump gets in, the days of teargas and bean bag rounds are going to look like the good times. [05:41] lord_phanes yeah he'll probably pull another kent state massacre [05:43] DaemonFC His plan is to scoop everyone who will say no to him out of the government. [05:56] lord_phanes its unfortunate that he's going to win by miles ● May 28 [06:04] DaemonFC Okay, Star Trek Generations with Rifftrax for tonight. [06:04] DaemonFC Can't help myself. [06:04] DaemonFC That's probably one of my least favorite Trek films. But there have been some bad ones. [06:05] DaemonFC Star Trek: The Motion Picture was so bad I fell asleep in the chair and never actually did go back to watch it. [06:05] DaemonFC First Contact was the best. Far and away the best. [06:06] DaemonFC The Kelvin Universe was a mistake. [06:06] DaemonFC The Next Generation crew was still young enough in 2009 that they could have pulled off at least a few more with them. [06:07] DaemonFC Instead they gave them to J.J. Abrams and we got a really bad reboot universe. [06:07] DaemonFC Not counting the Kelvin Universe, I'd rate Generations squarely in the middle. [06:07] DaemonFC Not terrible, not great. [06:09] DaemonFC It ignores the timeline set in TNG by having Scotty who was crash landed and stuck in a transporter buffer on the deck of the Enterprise-B. [06:10] DaemonFC So the TNG episode Relics makes Scotty's appearance in the first few minutes of Generations impossible in-universe. [06:11] DaemonFC I think that First Contact came out in 1996 and that was before Voyager had made the Borg the running gag of the week. [06:11] DaemonFC So they were still fairly terrifying. [06:12] DaemonFC The "science" of Star Trek is not great. It's not hard sci-fi. It has very little basis in settled science. [06:13] DaemonFC But the Borg terrified me as a child. I think I saw them on TNG when I was like maybe 5 or something. [06:14] DaemonFC By the time they got the movie treatment, they were more believable. Just made your skin crawl. Nanites that infect and transform into a mindless cyborg. [06:15] DaemonFC I'll do the rifftrax First Contact next. [06:16] DaemonFC But the movie is atypical because it's not so bad it was begging for it. [06:19] DaemonFC Ah, a Rifftrax version of Dirty Dancing. [06:20] DaemonFC Yes, what could be funnier than watching jokes about statutory rape in a Hollywood movie starring Patrick Swayze? [06:26] DaemonFC https://www.reddit.com/r/rickandmorty/comments/nzcv2x/does_anyone_else_appreciate_how_rick_and_morty/ [06:26] TR Bot ( status 403 @ https://www.reddit.com/r/rickandmorty/comments/nzcv2x/does_anyone_else_appreciate_how_rick_and_morty/ ) [06:26] DaemonFC " Does anyone else appreciate how Rick and Morty treats the sexual abuse of men with seriousness and doesn't play it off as a joke?" [06:26] DaemonFC They probably figure that it gets played off as a joke by police, prosecutors, the entire system. [06:26] DaemonFC So why even go there? [06:27] DaemonFC Basically all of our laws dealing with rape are based on the assumption that only women get raped. [06:27] DaemonFC It's part of the "damsel in distress" trope. [06:27] DaemonFC Which are also the basis of the welfare laws. [06:28] DaemonFC If Catholic priests had been raping little girls it probably wouldn't have taken 30 years for anyone to admit it. [06:29] DaemonFC And it wouldn't have ended in hush money stolen from pensioners. [06:29] DaemonFC The police would be in there with handcuffs and boarding the churches up. [06:30] lord_phanes value systems change over time, especially for cultures [06:30] DaemonFC Trust me, if it was female victims, they'd be LUCKY if they were still alive when the police got there. [06:31] DaemonFC Everyone thinks that women need help, police protection, and welfare, and men can just go eat shit and jump in the lake. [06:31] lord_phanes ok so go eat shit and jump in a lake [06:31] DaemonFC It's sickening, that society by its laws only values a bit over half the population. [06:32] lord_phanes your instincts are broken on this [06:35] lord_phanes your job is to protect, provide and to mate. everything after that is just politics. [06:38] cblinux and man-made political rules aka bureaucracy, which need to be overhauled from time to time [06:39] cblinux or better yet overthrown and rewritten from scratch, if needed at all. Most of the bureaucratic rule is dispensable. [06:40] lord_phanes sounds pretty irresponsible [06:40] lord_phanes overthrowing governments without a coherent means of establishing social safety or order [06:40] lord_phanes thats the dumbest thing ive heard all weekend [06:40] cblinux bureaucracy not governments [06:42] lord_phanes layered governance of descending orders of abstraction tend to be resilient to those problems [06:45] cblinux a source of corruption and inefficiency [06:45] lord_phanes nah [06:46] cblinux do you have an example? [06:46] lord_phanes what makes beuracracy inefficient and corrupt is poor design and decay of safeguards [06:46] lord_phanes conflicting priorities between actors [06:47] lord_phanes which is why [06:47] lord_phanes again [06:47] lord_phanes layered governance of descending orders of abstraction tend to be resilient to those problems [06:48] lord_phanes we have a tendency to build organically instead of holistically [06:50] lord_phanes there is perhaps some wisdom in that as holistic power models have a propensity towards fascism [06:50] cblinux or socialism as in holistically planned economy [06:50] lord_phanes but organic models have a propensity for decay [06:51] cblinux and the real existing holistic regimes of socialist flavour had no self-correction mechanisms either [06:51] lord_phanes heh [06:51] lord_phanes socialism isn't necesarily holistic in design in that context [06:51] lord_phanes and completely ignores critical facets of the human experience [06:52] lord_phanes socialism is like an unwitting axe murderer who just wants to help his victims but somehow ends up cutting them to pieces [06:52] cblinux :) [06:53] lord_phanes anyway the problem isn't governance models [06:53] lord_phanes not by a long shot [06:54] lord_phanes the only real way to "fix" humanity is to divide the human population to about 1/16th its current size [06:54] lord_phanes or make the earth 16 times larger [06:55] schestowitz[TR2] schestowitz[TR2]: I got a new rice cooker coming.

[22:00] DaemonFC And you know, drug needle users. [22:00] DaemonFC And prostitutes. [22:01] DaemonFC It's easier (and cheaper) (and less risky) to just stop being a whore that uses drugs than it is to take Truvada every month assuming you'll get exposed to HIV constantly and wreck your internal organs and develop osteoporosis. [22:01] DaemonFC These drugs are for people who are sick, but if you take them and you're not sick, they will cause a high risk of problems you do not already have, and never would have had. [22:02] DaemonFC There is a French study that shows that using Truvada sporadically works just as well for PrEP as taking it daily. [22:02] DaemonFC But doctors in the US don't prescribe it that way. [22:03] DaemonFC On Demand PrEP is you take two at the first dose, one every day you're doing something risky. One the day after, and two for the last dose. [22:03] DaemonFC So basically, if it's the occasional wild weekend you could just do 2-1-1-2 and then save the rest of the bottle, up to when it expires. [22:04] DaemonFC Years ago, this is how I used it, and my doctor said "Off the record, we know that works, but we can't say anything because the drug companies haven't asked the FDA to review it." [22:05] DaemonFC I said, "Why would they? They sell 365 pills a year to people who take it daily. I'm using maybe 20 or 30." [22:05] DaemonFC So the drug company is not going to go in there and ask the FDA to approve something that causes sales to collapse by 90%. [22:05] DaemonFC And run a study that costs money to see if it works. [22:05] DaemonFC So they overmedicate Americans, unscrupulously and in a corrupt manner, and kill us, for profit. [22:06] DaemonFC And the same industry is making all the other drugs, including Wegovy, Ozempic, and COVID shots. [22:07] DaemonFC In Europe, it all works differently. [22:08] DaemonFC The French studied on demand PrEP because they have National Healthcare. [22:08] DaemonFC They don't want to spend a fucking fortune on unnecessary medication. [22:08] DaemonFC But in the US, it's the patient who pays so they just nuke us from orbit with unnecessary medicine. [22:10] DaemonFC Imagine, if you will, a world where the pharmaceutical industry has become so powerful and influential that it can essentially dictate healthcare policy. They've infiltrated the government, the media, and even our doctors' offices, pushing their products on us whether we need them or not. [22:10] DaemonFC And when people start to question this system or try to seek alternative treatments, the industry strikes back with a vengeance. They discredit dissenting voices, bury negative research, and continue to peddle their pills and potions to an unsuspecting public. [22:11] DaemonFC Well, that's the United States. [22:11] DaemonFC My mother is usually on the right track that doctors frequently misdiagnose and prescribe useless treatments. [22:12] DaemonFC I'm surprised that what they gave me for the eczema actually worked on my hand. [22:12] DaemonFC When it comes to things like antibiotics, they seem to be in a rush to make them all useless, while not actually giving them to patients who need them, lest they become useless. [22:13] DaemonFC Like Doxycycline. They have a plan to have doctors hand it out like Pez to people who "may" get syphilis or the clap. Emphasis on "may". [22:14] DaemonFC People are so base and disgusting that they give out antibiotics preemptively for The Drips now, but you can't get anything if you walk in there with bacterial pneumonia because "we don't want to overprescribe". [22:15] DaemonFC I was reading about President William Henry Harrison last night. You think the healthcare system now is a tragicomedy? They were in there giving him an opium tincture and doing bloodlettings. And he was the President! The doctors probably killed him faster. [22:17] DaemonFC Then fast forward a hundred years. The doctors were giving Kennedy amphetamines and opioids. The opioids were for severe back injuries, and the amphetamines were to speed him back up again.

[23:24] DaemonFC It's not an antivirus program. It's spyware. [23:24] DaemonFC It's not uncommon for malware to attack other malware that's trying to compete with it. [23:25] DaemonFC So _part_ of what Windows Defender does is this, purely to get the other guy's malware off the PC so Microsoft has the PC all to themselves. [23:25] DaemonFC And the tertiary purpose is to flag everything that competes with Microsoft or which facilitates file sharing as a virus. [23:25] DaemonFC This includes Bittorrent programs and LibreOffice.

[23:27] DaemonFC This capability wasn't in Windows until the mid 2000s, but it's been getting worse since Vista. [23:27] DaemonFC The government wants everyone to use Windows, but Macs and Chromebooks are fine too.

[23:30] DaemonFC The government obviously has plans that are tantamount to the original version of "Valkyrie" (before Stauffenberg's revisions), and we saw part of that during the George Floyd riots.

There were two problems with the plan. One is, that due to unanticipated heat that day, the meeting at the Wolf's Lair got moved to another building with open windows instead of the concrete bunker. [23:32] DaemonFC And an officer moved the briefcase out of the way (not knowing there was a bomb in it) and the table leg blocked some of the blast, leaving Hitler with minor injuries. [23:32] DaemonFC Had the bomb actually killed Hitler as planned, the Valkyrie plan would have finished going off without a hitch. [23:33] DaemonFC The SS and other Nazi officials had already been mostly rounded up by the time the communications had been restored and Hitler went on the radio denouncing the attack and saying he was alive. [23:33] DaemonFC But the original Valkyrie was very different. [23:34] DaemonFC It was a Continuity of Government plan, much the same as what we saw during the George Floyd riots. [23:34] DaemonFC They take the Fuhrer (Trump) to an underground bunker. [23:34] DaemonFC Then they send out riot police and the National Guard everywhere.

[23:36] DaemonFC But Microsoft Windows is part of "Valkyrie" for lack of a better word, and so are Google and Apple. [23:36] DaemonFC Their goal is that they never need the Riot Police and National Guard. [23:36] DaemonFC Because they just monitor everything you do with spyware built into "web services" and proprietary software. [23:37] DaemonFC And break up whatever anyone is planning before it ever gets underway. [23:39] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2]: "Valkyrie" has been their plan to deal with the public for a while now. They know their time is short, throwing another trillion dollars on the pile every 3 months. [23:39] DaemonFC In Nazi Germany, the plan "Valkyrie" was designed to send the Reserve Army out if they had an uprising in the concentration camps, or with forced labor in the occupied countries. [23:41] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2]: They've used natural disasters as practice for years, including Hurricane Katrina. [23:42] DaemonFC Where they moved in and started illegally disarming the public. Not very concerned with passing out food or getting them to safety. [23:43] DaemonFC My guess is that the US military pier in Rafah collapsing is intentional. [23:43] DaemonFC The US Army Corps of Engineers is not so retarded that they can't build a pier. [23:44] DaemonFC It just happens to collapse as Netanyahu invades? Well, damn.
