I mean, I noticed Walmart stands to benefit either way. Either you'll get so used to it you'll pay 20% more for a protection plan or there's a good chance you'll be back buying another coffee maker in two years. [02:00] DaemonFC So basically, they make more money when the products are unreliable and they want you to know it's a piece of shit because everything's a piece of shit, and then they have more of your money either way. [02:00] DaemonFC I think Roy expressed this sentiment about electric kettles. [02:00] DaemonFC Like why do these things die every year [02:01] DaemonFC It runs some wires to a heating element. Is that _REALLY_ so difficult? [02:02] DaemonFC So difficult that they can't make one that lasts past the user heating water 300-400 times? [02:02] DaemonFC Auto drip coffee makers are a glorified water heater. [02:03] DaemonFC It draws water in, flash boils it, and that pressure forces the water up a tube and into a shower head that comes down on top of some coffee grounds and then the liquid falls through a piece of paper holding the grounds and into a carafe. [02:03] DaemonFC I mean, these things should be reliabe. [02:20] IPFS () Planet Gemini updated.

[04:39] schestowitz i see [04:39] schestowitz maybe becayze bacon did not abandon two kids [04:39] schestowitz he has a son, at least [04:39] schestowitz and looks after him [04:40] schestowitz doesn't need to accuse people of "Deadnaming" [04:40] schestowitz to run away from the past [04:40] DaemonFC Yeah, it takes a special sort of degenerate to hide all the money from the divorce court that might be allocated to supporting their own child. [04:40] DaemonFC But that's totally my opinion and such. [04:40] DaemonFC It's like most criminals, they see a court order to support their own child as "having the fucking probation officer riding me". [04:41] schestowitz ok [04:41] DaemonFC They never connect one to the other and say "Maybe I made some bad choices and I should improve myself." [04:41] schestowitz bbl [04:41] schestowitz gonna write some notes [04:41] schestowitz btw, next monday is jan 1 iirc [04:41] schestowitz so there will be more on that [04:41] DaemonFC Children are more difficult than misdemeanor punishment.

[04:43] DaemonFC The same kind that is enforced by law in most of the English-speaking world outside the US. [04:44] DaemonFC I mean, the US is bad enough because you watch liberals destroy the country anyway. [04:44] DaemonFC But at least they can't make you be polite. [04:44] DaemonFC That would be my breaking point. [04:45] DaemonFC The Max Headroom incident in 1986 was amusing. It's definitely my type of humor. [04:45] DaemonFC It may be what I would do if I could hijack the WGN feed. [04:46] DaemonFC Remark that the announcer was a "freaking liberal", make fun of Coca Cola while drinking a Pepsi, and then have someone smacking my bare ass with a flyswatter in front of 10 million people in the broadcast area. [04:46] DaemonFC But you know it wasn't me because I was only 2 years old. [04:47] schestowitz DaemonFC: if i were you, 'd not say "liberals" [04:47] schestowitz that's the language the right uses [04:47] schestowitz call that colloquially something else [04:47] schestowitz because they are not liberals [04:47] schestowitz it is a straw man [04:47] schestowitz mjg is not a liberal [04:47] schestowitz he is quite illiberal [04:48] schestowitz in practice, ime: [04:48] DaemonFC Microsoft hired the Stabber.

[04:48] schestowitz but they chase money [04:48] DaemonFC And saying Satya Nadella should be deported for being Indian. [04:49] DaemonFC Nadella is obviously some sort of puppet. [04:49] schestowitz he should maybe be deported, but not for his race [04:49] schestowitz yes, nadella is wearing the skirt there [04:49] schestowitz at MSFT [04:49] schestowitz insiders at MSFT say Bill and Brad Smith run the company [04:49] schestowitz nadella is just some "shield" [04:49] schestowitz because... "whitene-SS" [04:50] DaemonFC So basically he's powerless and if he doesn't give the orders that are handed to him, he can be removed quickly. [04:50] jrmu is Gates still on the board somewhere? I thought he retired [04:53] DaemonFC According to Walmart's site, the K-Cup coffee comes to about 7x more expensive if you buy Great Value in the K-Cups vs. the big can. [04:53] DaemonFC Counting the K-Cups as "just the coffee in the things". [04:54] DaemonFC With the other brands, the premium on the K-Cups is usually a little worse. [04:56] DaemonFC schestowitz: Dog Man, not to be confused with Dog Boy, has moved out. [04:56] DaemonFC Landlord doesn't know where he is and is showing the apartment again. [04:56] DaemonFC It's impossible that he could have taken the guy to eviction court already in this county. [04:57] DaemonFC That takes at least 6-8 weeks just to get an initial hearing around these parts, if you're lucky. [04:58] DaemonFC And the process has to begin with a notice to cure or vacate posted on the door, which he didn't do.

[21:25] DaemonFC I tried to go by the chiropractor's office today. [21:25] DaemonFC He's closed the office until January 17th. [21:25] DaemonFC It would have been nice if there was a mention of this anywhere. [21:31] DaemonFC The Utah "Social Media Law" and all of these State porn bills are just the latest example of how States always test the very limits of their power. [21:32] DaemonFC They went dormant for decades after losing the ability to ban porn outright due to the "obscenity test" imposed by the federal courts. [21:33] DaemonFC Now they want you to hand your driver's license over to something that will obviously lose it in a data breach, most likely involving Amazon or Microsoft Cloud, so that they can compile a list of porn videos you look at, and use it as blackmail later. [21:34] DaemonFC So when these data breaches happen, what the thieves will have now, in addition to all your medical records they got from the doctor's office, which uses Azure, and the DMV data and voter rolls and whatnot, is a complete list of all of your kinks. [21:34] DaemonFC It would be bad enough if *only* the porn company and the government had this information. [21:34] DaemonFC Imagine what a group of criminals in Russia or Belarus or India will do once they have it. [21:36] DaemonFC While these States are saying they want to get the "porn problem" under control, what they do is convince people they need Tor or a VPN, because now part of the Internet that they could access is off limits. And all the States get to comply are some of the larger porn companies that at least try to comply with some of the laws, laws about small things like trying to keep rape videos, CP, and rape videos involving CP off their site, like PornHub. [21:37] DaemonFC So they drive people to sites that don't comply with the law and then complain about all this increasingly "extreme" porn that's out there. [21:37] DaemonFC Which is just ridiculous.

[21:40] DaemonFC How after all these decades of trying, they've failed to entirely supplant the basic model . [21:40] MinceR lol [21:41] DaemonFC Also, while they're busy trying to ruin PornHub, no State except Oregon, which is in many ways one of the worst States in the country (Defund the police, everyone on Fentanyl, etc.) has actually criminalized possession of bestiality porn. [21:42] DaemonFC So they're not only not trying to drive these extreme porn sites off the Web, they're not even legislating on the topic. [21:42] DaemonFC But they're trying to ruin PornHub which is mostly some guy in Quebec speaking French while having vaginal intercourse with various women. [21:42] DaemonFC Which is much worse than the aforementioned horse, of course, of course. [21:44] DaemonFC I mean, the guy in Quebec is pretty standard for a nasty Frenchman who probably has every strain of HPV or something by now and the clap so many times it's the applause.

Other than speaking the French language, ever. [21:46] DaemonFC France. Known for surrendering immediately to the Nazis, smoking in the 21st century, odd choices in cinema, and burning Paris over a normal retirement age. [21:46] DaemonFC The Nazis didn't even BURN Paris. [21:46] DaemonFC Years later they do it to themselves over a retirement age of 65, which is what it last was in America in the 1980s. [21:47] DaemonFC They surrendered to the Nazis in order to live lives of quiet comfort under fascism. Most of them did. Some continued to fight. [21:48] DaemonFC Normal people who want some type of self-determination obviously exist in France, but not in any great numbers. [21:49] DaemonFC I'd go all Braveheart (Mel Gibson take) over the Nazis, personally. [21:49] DaemonFC The whole they may take our land but they'll never take our freedom thing. [21:50] DaemonFC I don't know what the hell the French were doing shaving people's heads for collaborating. [21:50] MinceR well, there are plenty of nazis to go all braveheart over now [21:50] DaemonFC You know someone's a collaborator, leave them dead in a ditch somewhere. [21:50] MinceR especially now that most of the authoritarians have joined forces [21:51] DaemonFC Yes, and one of the problems we're facing are "Climate Nazis". [21:51] MinceR "no climate for you! one year!"? [21:51] DaemonFC The ones that are overblowing climate change to steal our living standard and calling it "decarbonization". [21:52] DaemonFC Most countries with any GDP to speak of emit a lot of carbon, so they figure the way to solve that is to make everyone dirt floor poor.

[21:54] MinceR lol [21:55] DaemonFC That sort of tells you this "explosion of undesirable gut fauna and flora" isn't just limited to "steady diet of red meat and grease". [21:55] DaemonFC And red meat does not have to be especially greasy. [21:56] DaemonFC The cheaper stuff is 27% grease and fat, but you get the leaner stuff like I do and you basically barely even have to drain it. [21:56] DaemonFC You can pat it down with a paper towel if you want. [21:56] DaemonFC When you grind red meat, you control the percentage of fat. [21:57] DaemonFC Just like there's "Oh God, this coffee tastes like shit. This must be what they do with the floor sweepings!" and "This is exceptional! Where did you get this?" You get stuff at every price point. [21:58] DaemonFC Most people just aren't very refined. They go in there with $5 and get the biggest can of coffee they can for $5. Or they just grab the cheapest thing that says "ground beef". [21:58] DaemonFC Most people are monsters. We knew that. [21:58] DaemonFC These are the people who use the word "taint" to describe the perineal area. [21:59] DaemonFC And use the drinking fountain for a urinal. ● Dec 28 [22:00] DaemonFC Go to court in the pajamas. The best pair. The ones with the fewest holes. And a necklace with a marijuana leaf and a gun pendant. [22:00] DaemonFC And a gold grill in the mouth. [22:01] DaemonFC MinceR: Mom said that her ex-husband, Brian, went to court in a rented suit one time that would have cost like $5,000. He came back and said "I might as well have gone in my skivvies." [22:01] DaemonFC I said, "Yeah, it's amazing how you put a dumb hayseed in a $5,000 suit you've still got a dumb hayseed in a $5,000 suit, isn't it?" [22:06] DaemonFC I try to carry myself better in such situations. If you're going to go into court in an expensive dress suit and an expensive watch that you plan to return to the jewelry store, try to act like you are a person of breeding, not inbreeding. Stand up straight. Enunciate. Use proper grammar. [22:07] DaemonFC I went to court and acted the part of a person who would never ever be there. And as soon as the judge saw that and picked up on that, she started shooting down the State's attorney, who walked out, obviously pissed at having gotten nothing. [22:08] DaemonFC It's a lot easier for the government to spin a story when the person is over there with a hair pick in and their ass hanging out of an old set of jeans. [22:10] DaemonFC It's kind of amazing when you read a lot of these government court filings and almost all of it is boilerplae. [22:10] DaemonFC *boilerplate [22:11] DaemonFC Like hundreds and hundreds of pages and all they do is fill in the blanks, and they've obviously made mistakes, but they know the judges won't care.

[22:13] DaemonFC Even with basic coffee orders at a Dunkin Donuts or something, it adds up pretty fast, and this isn't even Starbucks, much less a hoity toity cafe. [22:14] DaemonFC Like, I don't even want to go to Dunkin' and get some pissed off teenager handing me a $3 coffee that's been on the burner for 6 hours and then fuck up the amount of cream and sugar that goes in it. [22:14] DaemonFC I just don't need that in my life. [22:15] DaemonFC I went to the Dunkin' the other day simply because they said go there, show this coupon, you get a free large drip coffee every day all week, you don't even have to buy anything. [22:15] DaemonFC I said, eh, well, if it's free it'll definitely be worth everything I paid. [22:15] DaemonFC So I put my order in. Dunkin' Midnight Roast, large, 6 half and half shots, 5 Splenda... [22:16] DaemonFC Get the coffee take a sip, went "aggh!" and Mandy wanted to try it then he spit it out in the parking lot, and then I dumped out the cup and drove off. [22:16] DaemonFC And that's a $4 coffee. [22:16] DaemonFC So you can get some $10 coffee pot at Walmart and some bulk coffee that's just complete rubbish and it'll at least be FRESH when you make it. [22:17] DaemonFC MinceR: So Mom is like, "Why are you getting coffee at Dunkin' Donuts?" I said, "Because I hate myself!" [22:20] IPFS () Planet Gemini updated.

Is measuring water and putting coffee in a filter like landing the Mars rover now or something? [22:21] DaemonFC I've always had this complete disdain for K-Cups, because you're now bordering on half the price of Starbucks and for much, much lower quality, and littering all over the place with non-biodegradable pods. [22:22] DaemonFC Gorton's Food Service is probably the best place to get your pods if you are going to use them. [22:23] DaemonFC They developed one that just has a plastic lid and underneath that it's a woven filter with coffee packed into it. They made it wider and shallower than a K-Cup so the bottom needle doesn't puncture it and send coffee grounds flying everywhere. [22:24] DaemonFC They've totally eliminated the plastic cup underneath the lid. So it is at least a lot better. Most of the pod will rot away leaving just the lid. [22:25] DaemonFC I go to Gorton's Food Service for a lot of things anyway. They're meant for "institutions". Like, hospitals, prisons, nursing homes, schools, restaurant owners. They go there to buy stuff in bulk. [22:25] DaemonFC Like you buy a jar of mayo, there's just one size. You have mayo for like 7-8 months and don't need to buy that again. [22:26] DaemonFC So if you're careful you can knock out a lot of these things you just keep buying and buying more of at Walmart and pay less in the end. [22:29] DaemonFC I buy a lot of things in bulk, like those saddle packs of organic grass-fed ground beef. [22:29] DaemonFC I'll buy like 10 pounds, individually vacuum packed for like $50, then freeze it all. [22:29] DaemonFC Don't need to go to that store again for a while.
