| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: The Bankruptin' Chief is trying to appeal to stupid people in Floriduh who have an even bigger COVID-19 problem right now than what ever happened in New York. | Jul 31 00:53 |
| DaemonFC[m] | People who are smart, at all, stopped listening to the Bankruptin' Chief a long time ago. | Jul 31 00:53 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Anyway, Trump called the witch doctor, she told him what to do. She said that, oooh eeee oooh ahhh ahh, ting tang, wala wala bing bang. ;) | Jul 31 00:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I, for one, am not surprised that Trump's witch doctor says that Ovarian Cysts are caused by people having sex with demons in their dreams because that sounds like something the people at my mom's church who all got the Coronavirus would say. | Jul 31 00:57 |

| schestowitz | about half a million confirmed | Jul 31 00:59 |

| schestowitz | you can put people on ventilators for a month | Jul 31 00:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yes, and we all know that Floriduh is "massaging" the statistics on deaths by not using CDC recommendations, to hide the fact that their governor is as stupid as Trump. | Jul 31 00:59 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Well, since Mr. 9-9-9 won't be making my Uncle Steve a tax plan he can't refuse anymore, and his whole family is sick with the virus down there in Georgia, I wonder if he'll take down that idiotic Facebook post about people losing their shit over a virus with a "98% survival rate". Also, about that, as more cases close, the slower the death rate falls each day. I can't see it getting much lower than maybe 5%. | Jul 31 01:06 |

| DaemonFC[m] | It turns out that the Trump Campaign very obviously got Herman Cain killed while he was tweeting that people should refuse to wear a mask at the event (which was sparsely attended anyway). | Jul 31 01:09 |
| DaemonFC[m] | When the news got there to the rally, it was just a bunch of bleachers. 90% empty. No use for the "overflow area" and it got Herman Cain killed anyway. | Jul 31 01:09 |

| DaemonFC[m] | Sure | Jul 31 07:05 |
| schestowitz | cheers, hang on... | Jul 31 07:10 |
| schestowitz | first there's this very short one http://techrights.org/2020/07/31/github-in-a-nutshell/ | Jul 31 07:10 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | [Meme] GitHub is Not About Sharing But About Giving… Everything to Microsoft | Techrights | Jul 31 07:11 | |
| schestowitz | the next is about yours... | Jul 31 07:11 |
| schestowitz | can you see it has clarify? | Jul 31 07:11 |
| schestowitz | looks OK? | Jul 31 07:16 |
| schestowitz | If so, I'll do the next one | Jul 31 07:16 |
| schestowitz | it's a draft | Jul 31 07:16 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah. | Jul 31 07:16 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I noticed that github does allow you to use the GPL 3 on your project. | Jul 31 07:16 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That Codeplex thing did not. | Jul 31 07:16 |
| schestowitz | wow | Jul 31 07:16 |
| schestowitz | what if you still want it? | Jul 31 07:16 |
| schestowitz | or migrate to it | Jul 31 07:17 |
| schestowitz | with gplv3 | Jul 31 07:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The terms of service for Codeplex said that you couldn't host anything GPL 3 there. | Jul 31 07:17 |
| schestowitz | any link about this? | Jul 31 07:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Also, it was not a license option, so if you went to pick it, the GPL 3 and LGPL 3 just weren't on the list. | Jul 31 07:17 |
| schestowitz | major news if true | Jul 31 07:17 |
| schestowitz | I did not know | Jul 31 07:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Microsoft shut Codeplex down, I think. | Jul 31 07:18 |
| schestowitz | yup | Jul 31 07:19 |
| schestowitz | but nm codeplex | Jul 31 07:19 |
| schestowitz | does this apply in github? | Jul 31 07:19 |
| schestowitz | and if so, we need the proof | Jul 31 07:19 |
| schestowitz | maybe there is a wa around | Jul 31 07:19 |
| schestowitz | some gnu projects are there | Jul 31 07:19 |
| schestowitz | and afaik they use gplv3 | Jul 31 07:19 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: https://www.fsf.org/blogs/rms/microsoft-codeplex-foundation | Jul 31 07:20 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.fsf.org | Lest CodePlex perplex — Free Software Foundation — working together for free software | Jul 31 07:20 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "does this apply in github?"> No, I've seen GPL 3 and LGPL 3 projects in Github. | Jul 31 07:20 |
| schestowitz | what about github? | Jul 31 07:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I remember going to create a Codeplex repo and the GPL/LGPL 3 weren't on the approved licenses list. | Jul 31 07:21 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then the ToS said if it's not on the approved licenses list, you can't host it. | Jul 31 07:21 |
| schestowitz | so I guess it is 'old news' | Jul 31 07:21 |
| schestowitz | let me publish the draft... | Jul 31 07:21 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, Microsoft shut Codeplex down as soon as they acquired Github, and there were already GPL 3 projects there. | Jul 31 07:22 |
| schestowitz | http://techrights.org/2020/07/31/the-microsoft-hoax/ | Jul 31 07:22 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | People Who Believe Global Warning is a ‘Hoax’ Are the Types Who Might Think Microsoft Really Loves Linux | Techrights | Jul 31 07:22 | |
| schestowitz | it's draft, so it'll have typos we need to fix quickly | Jul 31 07:22 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Microsoft's "Shared Source Licenses" have a couple that would be Free Software, except for the fact that the resulting application has to support Windows. | Jul 31 07:23 |
| DaemonFC[m] | One could imagine a future where Windows no longer exists and it's impossible to satisfy that license. | Jul 31 07:23 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I really think that Windows is on the way out. Might be slow motion, but give it 30 years and I don't think people will be using it. There will be adutls that don't remember it. | Jul 31 07:24 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Remember MP3 as a killer technology? Then 30 years later, there's 18 year olds that don't know what an MP3 is? | Jul 31 07:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Microsoft does not like all the time. | Jul 31 07:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | like should be lie | Jul 31 07:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | "Days ago, Facebook, Apple, Google, and Amazon came under “antitrust” fire." | Jul 31 07:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah? | Jul 31 07:32 |
| schestowitz | thanks, fixed | Jul 31 07:33 |
| schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: yes, GAFA | Jul 31 07:33 |
| schestowitz | did you not read press reports? | Jul 31 07:33 |
| schestowitz | no M in GAFAM | Jul 31 07:33 |
| schestowitz | Microsoft a good citizen now, apparently... | Jul 31 07:33 |
| *schestowitz found a second typo | Jul 31 07:34 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | No, I meant commas. Lots of commas for your mommas. | Jul 31 07:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Microsoft is almost a parody of itself these days. | Jul 31 07:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | 'campaign contributions | Jul 31 07:35 |
| schestowitz | OK, I added your two commas | Jul 31 07:35 |
| schestowitz | I found that typo | Jul 31 07:35 |
| schestowitz | missing apostrophe | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | upon first read | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | we both saw the same two typos | Jul 31 07:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Oh, okay. | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | and I added your commas | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | You posted a rant about firefox in a firefox sub | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | in an oppressive site | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | of course it'll be downvoter | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | the subs are guarded by those who are stakeholders | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | so no real free speech and debate | Jul 31 07:36 |
| schestowitz | more like brand buillding | Jul 31 07:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | With so many cranks out there, and seemingly growing in number because the COVID crisis kills them from the neck up, no wonder some people out there even fall for lies like “Microsoft loves Linux…” | Jul 31 07:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'd drop the "and". | Jul 31 07:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | and use "it's no wonder". | Jul 31 07:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I have several hundred edits that go something like this on Wikipedia. | Jul 31 07:38 |

| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Others are saying that Pocket ads got turned back on by Firefox 79. | Jul 31 07:39 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Some are suggesting that this could be an accident related to the German rollout of Pocket ads. | Jul 31 07:40 |
| schestowitz | [07:37] <DaemonFC[m]> and use "it's no wonder". | Jul 31 07:41 |
| schestowitz | done, cheers | Jul 31 07:41 |
| schestowitz | Pocket was proprietary | Jul 31 07:41 |
| schestowitz | then mozilla 'liberated' it | Jul 31 07:41 |
| schestowitz | advertising platform now? | Jul 31 07:41 |
| schestowitz | 'free' ads? | Jul 31 07:41 |
| schestowitz | firefox pisses me off at times | Jul 31 07:41 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, it studies what you browse and they sell ads in your new tab page in Firefox. | Jul 31 07:42 |

| DaemonFC[m] | I've eaten canned goods a year past their expiration date and I'm still here. | Jul 31 07:52 |
| schestowitz | lol | Jul 31 07:53 |
| schestowitz | btw, I spent ages eating canned goods | Jul 31 07:53 |
| schestowitz | 'goods' | Jul 31 07:53 |
| schestowitz | esp. before rianne and I got married and she cooks a lot, so no canned foods anymore, or barely | Jul 31 07:53 |
| schestowitz | it did not kill me, but check the preservative contents in these | Jul 31 07:53 |
| schestowitz | I don't know the longterm effects, but it cannot be too good | Jul 31 07:54 |
| schestowitz | if it helps kill germs, it might also help kill something in you, like pesticides do | Jul 31 07:54 |
| schestowitz | if not directly from food like veg, then water supply, aerosols etc. | Jul 31 07:54 |
| schestowitz | GMO in its own right might be OK, but GM means they typically go with chemicals, which the plants are made 'immune' to | Jul 31 07:55 |
| schestowitz | your body is not immune to those chemicals | Jul 31 07:55 |
| schestowitz | the GMO lobbyists conflate these things | Jul 31 07:55 |
| schestowitz | to make GMO critics seem nuts | Jul 31 07:55 |
| schestowitz | 5G patent holders do the same | Jul 31 07:55 |
| schestowitz | to associate 5G critics with nuts who say 5G spreads COVID | Jul 31 07:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I prefer frozen vegetables. | Jul 31 07:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The preservative is usually just a bunch of sodium. | Jul 31 07:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So it's kind of hard on your kidneys and bad for the blood pressure if you do canned. | Jul 31 07:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Can be. | Jul 31 07:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If a food pantry gives me canned carrots or something then I'll use them, but if I'm buying, the price difference for frozen is small. | Jul 31 07:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It avoids a ton of salt. | Jul 31 07:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's usually for the best because Mandy likes putting MSG in some things. | Jul 31 07:57 |
| schestowitz | [07:56] <DaemonFC[m]> schestowitz: I prefer frozen vegetables. | Jul 31 07:58 |
| schestowitz | They lose nutrients and vitamins | Jul 31 07:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So canned veggies and MSG = Sodium Bomb | Jul 31 07:58 |
| schestowitz | best if not frozen | Jul 31 07:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Frozen loses less than fresh. | Jul 31 07:58 |
| schestowitz | buy fresh, then wash | Jul 31 07:58 |

| DaemonFC[m] | It's called the "trial tax". | Jul 31 18:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The prosecutor and your attorney should know about what the government's case looks like and what the odds are. That's why the government offers a deal. | Jul 31 18:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If they go to court and you lose, they ask for way more at the sentencing hearing than the deal was going to be. | Jul 31 18:55 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-blog.simplejustice.us | The Trial Tax: Worse Than You Thought | Simple Justice | Jul 31 18:58 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | "Assuming you just skipped over the quote, here’s the TL:dr: Not only is there a trial tax, but the trial tax is a 64% longer sentence. This is likely far more than anyone would have realized. Yeah, data is a thing." | Jul 31 18:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | What would 64% worse have looked like in my case. | Jul 31 18:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Probably 6 months in jail and triple the fine. | Jul 31 19:00 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's not just the sentence being 64% harsher that you have to consider. | Jul 31 19:01 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's how damaging the original charges and a conviction would be to your reputation. | Jul 31 19:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Obviously another misdemeanor after a long string of felonies wouldn't really sting more than the existing priors. | Jul 31 19:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So people who habitually offend have less of a reputation to protect, and ironically less incentive to entertain the idea that a C misdemeanor and deferred judgment would be less bad than two convictions on A misdemeanors. | Jul 31 19:03 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: Mandy was like "They give free condoms to prisoners but they're not allowed to have sex?". | Jul 31 19:05 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I said, "Yeah, they're admitting that they can't enforce their own rules. Imagine that.". | Jul 31 19:05 |
| DaemonFC[m] | He says, "Prison turns you gay?". | Jul 31 19:05 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I said, "Well, men do all sorts of things when they're looking at a life sentence and there are never going to be any women around.". | Jul 31 19:06 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If a sex offender goes to prison, they'll usually try to lie and say it was car theft or something. | Jul 31 19:07 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: I was in jail for the weekend one time when I was a teenager over something real dumb. | Jul 31 19:08 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I made the mistake of asking someone I was eating lunch next to what he did, and he starts graphically describing sex with a farm animal. | Jul 31 19:08 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Awkward. | Jul 31 19:08 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then each night there was some kid of about 8 or 9 that was screaming he wanted to be out right now and I probably got a few hours sleep. | Jul 31 19:10 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The system starts going to work on some people sooner than others. | Jul 31 19:10 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They arrest an 8 year old. For what? | Jul 31 19:10 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Like he's going to understand fully the ramifications of committing some minor infraction. | Jul 31 19:11 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Thank god for the police, MinceR | Jul 31 19:11 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Strip searching an 8 year old and watching him shower. | Jul 31 19:11 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Glad they're here to protect us from perverts. | Jul 31 19:11 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I can't imagine that there aren't perverts hiding out as cops because their job gives them an excuse to get their freak on. | Jul 31 19:12 |

| MinceR | there are people in prison who ignore rules? well, i never! | Jul 31 19:38 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: It's "correcting" them. | Jul 31 19:40 |
| DaemonFC[m] | When they let them out, they'll never re-offend because the government "corrected" them. The government never does anything wrong, so when they say a problem is fixed, it's fixed. | Jul 31 19:41 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: That's why I think the government should completely take over health care and car repair. | Jul 31 19:41 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You go in once and they fix it so good there will never be a problem again. | Jul 31 19:42 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Of course, I joke. People who go to prison don't change because they were willing to break the law once and they'll do it again, and most of them won't even learn to do it better so they won't get caught again. | Jul 31 19:43 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: schestowitz quoted Bill Gates saying (of Windows Vista, I guess?) "If you can't make it good, at least make it look good.". That's how people should approach the law too. | Jul 31 19:44 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Hide your shit better. | Jul 31 19:44 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: Fox Lake, IL gave a high ranking police officer a parade after he died of an accident. | Jul 31 19:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Later, they learned that he had ripped the village off to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars over the last few decades. | Jul 31 19:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | He committed suicide and made it look like an accident because he feared that a coming audit would expose him and if he lost his job as a police officer, his wife wouldn't get his life insurance money if he died. | Jul 31 19:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | He may have been caught, he might not have. He jumped the gun and killed himself before he would ever know, and they figured out the embezzlement because they started looking at the "accident". In other words, he may have been exposed because he drew attention to himself by committing suicide | Jul 31 19:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | His wife didn't get the insurance money and now he's dead. | Jul 31 19:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: I suppose a more logical thing to do would be wait for the audit and see if they even catch you before you decide to kill yourself. | Jul 31 19:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You could always kill yourself while you're out on bail if it looks like they're going to send you away for 40 years or something. | Jul 31 19:49 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Thanks to the police fucking with my head and making it sound like I was going to jail for "years", I was seriously considering signing the citation so I could get out and blow my head off. | Jul 31 19:51 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then I started to calm down after I was out of there and said "Let's see how bad this -really- is. If I have to kill myself to stay out of jail then that's still an option after I see the "How fucked am I?" report. | Jul 31 19:52 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Turns out that I was nowhere near fucked enough that jail was an actual concern. | Jul 31 19:52 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'm one of those people who would not last long in jail. | Jul 31 19:53 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I think that if more than 10 years was probable I'd just bail out and then end it. | Jul 31 19:54 |
| MinceR | DaemonFC[m]: lol | Jul 31 19:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'm not some narcissist like Hans Reiser who would just do 20 years and then in the middle of that, go show up in court to make an idiot out of myself all over again. | Jul 31 19:54 |
| MinceR | too bad gates couldn't even make vista look good | Jul 31 19:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: My mom is one of those people who thinks life in prison is going soft on someone. | Jul 31 19:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If I was going to get life in prison, I would request a death sentence and then not use any appeals. | Jul 31 19:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Life in prison is pretty much the worst thing that can happen to someone. | Jul 31 19:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's much, much worse than dying. | Jul 31 19:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I can't believe she watched my cousin's husband do two years and then come out with PTSD and thinks that the rest of your life in prison is "soft punishment". | Jul 31 19:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There's people raping you in the shower. | Jul 31 19:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Beating you up if you don't give them your lunch. | Jul 31 19:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If you're lucky you might get to read a book every once in a while. | Jul 31 19:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If you're unlucky, they'll stick you in the hole and you'll start going nuts in an hour or two, with only months left to go down there. | Jul 31 19:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I mean, which part of that. 50 years of that..... is better than death? | Jul 31 19:59 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: I heard someone say don't piss off old people because the older you get, the less a life sentence means. | Jul 31 20:00 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That must be why 70 and 80 year olds in Trump hats are shooting people for asking them to wear a mask at Walmart. | Jul 31 20:00 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They call it the second childhood because the Delta pilot has to get on the intercom and say "So help me God I will turn this plane around!". | Jul 31 20:02 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Everyone on the plane has to suffer because one jerk who says he voted for Trump and has Constitutional rights wore a mask to get on the plane and then figured they wouldn't do anything about him once it was in the air. This has happened three times now. | Jul 31 20:03 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You know, I heard the passengers subdued the underwear bomber and beat the crap out of him and stomped on his dick (to put out the fuse that he tried to light). Maybe they should just let the passengers lose on the people who wear MAGA hats who make the plane turn around halfway to Miami. | Jul 31 20:05 |
| *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Jul 31 20:08 | |
| MinceR | well, at least if the state realizes it fucked up, it can still get you out of there | Jul 31 20:14 |
| MinceR | there's no coming back from being executed | Jul 31 20:14 |
| DaemonFC[m] | <MinceR "well, at least if the state real"> LOL | Jul 31 20:15 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You mean after you prove you were innocent complete with evidence that someone at the state lab was lying about DNA tests and the prosecutor is still trying to keep you in prison? | Jul 31 20:16 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Then, in exchange for 26 years of living hell for something you didn't do, the state says it will stoop down to giving you $5,000 for each year of that as compensation? | Jul 31 20:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That actually happened to dozens of people in Michigan. | Jul 31 20:17 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There's probably no recovering from that, MinceR | Jul 31 20:18 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The psychological damage. | Jul 31 20:18 |
| DaemonFC[m] | While you were in there, your relatives all got old and died. | Jul 31 20:18 |
| DaemonFC[m] | You're 63 years old. | Jul 31 20:19 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Texas refuses to re-examine any death sentence cases. | Jul 31 20:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If they were wrong even 1% of the time, they've killed over 20 innocent people since 1990. | Jul 31 20:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Like they'll ever admit to that. | Jul 31 20:20 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: The state is all knowing. It's basically God. If anything, you just piss it off even more by proving that it's not infallible. | Jul 31 20:21 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Even if you play by the state's rules, it can still find ways to penalize you. | Jul 31 20:21 |
| DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: I feel like I'm in Q's penalty box from that episode of Star Trek: TNG. | Jul 31 20:22 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Remember. There's only one penalty box. If you screw up again, or anyone else screws up, you die. | Jul 31 20:23 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There's no personal consequences for anyone around me if I go to jail, at least not immediately and in their own mind. | Jul 31 20:23 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So they enjoy thumbing their nose at me about being able to call the police "...and who will they believe?" "Not you.". | Jul 31 20:24 |
| DaemonFC[m] | At least if I make it through one more week of this shit show I have theoretical Constitutional rights that they would have to theoretically bowl over to take another shot at me. | Jul 31 20:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Right now I don't even have that. | Jul 31 20:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | In reality, the cops get so good at working all of the loopholes and getting (most) people to confess that the state doesn't need anything else, really. | Jul 31 20:26 |

| schestowitz | EU was too US-leaning anyway, as was/is the UK | Jul 31 23:25 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The Senate Republicans aren't saying it openly, but they're afraid that such a beating is coming for them in the election that they'll be wiped out because of Trump. The time to do something about him came and went. They could have probably just kicked him out of office and held onto the Senate. | Jul 31 23:25 |
| schestowitz | Japan is deeper and deeper in debt | Jul 31 23:25 |
| schestowitz | maybe for now there will be a "power vacuum" | Jul 31 23:26 |
| schestowitz | no superpowers | Jul 31 23:26 |

| schestowitz | no riots though | Jul 31 23:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They were so concerned with what a bunch of nuts in red hats that obviously weren't going to vote for a Democrat thought of them, that it never occurred that Trump would bring a bigger problem for them than just booting him out of office and dealing with whatever came of that was going to be. | Jul 31 23:27 |
| schestowitz | lots of construction (housing) right now | Jul 31 23:28 |

| schestowitz | Putin looks like top-notch pro compared to this | Jul 31 23:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I doubt that home loanership is going to be much of a thing, given the mass unemployment, the fact that the moratorium on student loan debt is ending next, and the wave of bank failures and foreclosures that are already baked in. People will wait until the last second and file bankruptcy to forestall the inevitable when they think that the Sheriff will be out presently, but in the end it's all going to fall over. | Jul 31 23:29 |

| DaemonFC[m] | My mom and dad think of immigrants as "trash people" and now the joke is on the United States as the rest of the world slams the door on us and says so long and thanks for all the fish due to their alleged president. | Jul 31 23:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Trump didn't close the border. Mexico and Canada saw what was about to unfold in here and went NOPE NOPE NOPE. | Jul 31 23:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | An American passport gets you into so many countries you can count them on your fingers at this point. | Jul 31 23:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Of course, your average Trump supporter can't count to 21 without being arrested for indecent exposure. | Jul 31 23:35 |
| DaemonFC[m] | China is the largest holder of US debt and at this point they're so pissed off that they're not even going to let Trump pretend we have an economy. | Jul 31 23:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So 33% of it disappears overnight while the Fed prints and prints to fund the government. | Jul 31 23:37 |

| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Recessions make recessions worse. As ironic as it sounds. The "fear fairy", economists call it. When people don't feel confident, they stop spending money. When they stop spending money, the economy gets worse. When the economy gets worse, people lose their jobs and stop spending money, and so on. So the fact that we lost a third of our entire economy in 3 months despite the fact that not nearly everyone | Jul 31 23:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | lost their jobs, is because people don't have any confidence that Trump will solve _any_ problems that we are currently facing. He's said nothing at all that would reassure anyone with a brain in their head. It's all been about "my ratings" and "my election" and other things about himself. | Jul 31 23:48 |
| schestowitz | [23:32] <DaemonFC[m]> My mom and dad think of immigrants as "trash people" | Jul 31 23:49 |
| schestowitz | That what they think of their (grand)parents? | Jul 31 23:49 |
| schestowitz | *that's | Jul 31 23:49 |
| schestowitz | [23:35] <DaemonFC[m]> Of course, your average Trump supporter can't count to 21 without being arrested for indecent exposure. | Jul 31 23:50 |
| schestowitz | Women cannot do this :/ | Jul 31 23:50 |
| schestowitz | I never heard this joke before | Jul 31 23:50 |
| schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: yes, the Fed fakes it | Jul 31 23:51 |

| DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "Women cannot do this :/"> Sure they can. According to Matthew Garrett they just have to pretend they're a man because gender is a mental condition. | Jul 31 23:53 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Since gender is a mental condition, you just have to think long and hard and a penis will appear. | Jul 31 23:53 |

| DaemonFC[m] | That's like getting bank robbery tips from the people who spent the last 20 years downstate. | Jul 31 23:57 |
| MinceR | i have a tip for how to drink and drive, too | Jul 31 23:58 |
| MinceR | don't. | Jul 31 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | More in the way of "the cops theoretically don't harass gay people". | Jul 31 23:58 |
| MinceR | most people drive badly enough when sober | Jul 31 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They hang outside the gay bar in Fort Wayne every night waiting for people to get in their car. | Jul 31 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I don't know. Maybe they do that at other bars. | Jul 31 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I've never seen them pretending to be a 16 year old girl online. | Jul 31 23:59 |
