| IsambardPrince | schestowitz-pi, I can tell you this about the criminal court system in America. | Mar 30 07:35 |
| IsambardPrince | Most people to encounter it are halfway between a legitimate trial and the Volksgerichtshof. | Mar 30 07:35 |
| IsambardPrince | It can't be The People's Court, or people would know what it was, but it can't be a fair trial, because then too many people would get away from it. | Mar 30 07:36 |
| *ghostrider has quit (connection closed) | Mar 30 07:37 | |
| IsambardPrince | So there's enough due process, some right to a proper defense, and when I say enough and some, I mean that it is _possible_ to be acquitted, but it doesn't happen very often. | Mar 30 07:37 |
| IsambardPrince | They can't just take you in there, scream at you, have a bust of Trump's head that they salute, and have you shot the next day. | Mar 30 07:38 |
| IsambardPrince | But the goal is more to demonstrate the power of the state than it is to give you the benefit of the doubt and fact-find. | Mar 30 07:38 |

| *wael___ (~quassel@hgmhm4zzuwffw.irc) has joined #tuxmachines | Mar 30 07:42 | |
| IsambardPrince | Once they've demonstrated this and ruined your life, it's up to you whether you want to end your life. | Mar 30 07:43 |
| IsambardPrince | That's our court system. They plant the seeds. They make your life hard and they get you wondering if your life is even worth living anymore. | Mar 30 07:43 |

| schestowitz-pi | i can confiurmed | Mar 30 11:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | confirm | Mar 30 11:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | asked about 100 vendors already | Mar 30 11:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | who _might_ have collected one | Mar 30 11:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | it's not urgent | Mar 30 11:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am picking plants these days | Mar 30 11:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | also indoor | Mar 30 11:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | good for air supply | Mar 30 11:18 |
| techtrights-sec6 | There might be something online there in the UK or imprted from France | Mar 30 11:19 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Spider plants are optimal for air improvement, I recall reading studies on | Mar 30 11:19 |
| techtrights-sec6 | taht topic in tyhe early 1990s. They're also super easy to grow and rather | Mar 30 11:19 |
| techtrights-sec6 | robust. | Mar 30 11:19 |
| schestowitz-pi | glassware and plasticware = immefdiate no | Mar 30 11:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | wood and metal | Mar 30 11:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | what i got today is similar to spider plant, plus it came with glass ornament | Mar 30 11:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | rianne is starting to be surrounded not by plastic "plants" | Mar 30 11:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | but real ones | Mar 30 11:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | i also get branded beautity products 80 or 90 pct off rrp | Mar 30 11:21 |
| techtrights-sec6 | flea markets and second hand shops might have a higher probability of | Mar 30 11:23 |
| techtrights-sec6 | having a mechnanical coffee mill. | Mar 30 11:23 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Good air quality then. | Mar 30 11:23 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Plastic is bad in many ways. | Mar 30 11:23 |
| schestowitz-pi | yesterday near stadium we schatted about quality of cars, as we went part the tresla showroom (100m from here) | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | and we pointed out how they don't make even cars to last anymore | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | they all do the same | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | like pricing-=fixing cartel | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | i borught up geererling's rant about "app" for the dishwasher | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | people are expected to buiy 4 times the same thing instead of 1 that lasts 4 times longer | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | and options that last longer are too prohibitive given salary's flailing | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | tesla maybe 70m meters from me, not 100m, aerial distance | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | i checked online for 'joke' | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | the cvheapest one last year was aboutr 42k | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | then you add the things any "sane" person adds | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | so it's 44 or 45k | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | not counting insurance etc | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | just VAT | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | for that price we could bbuy a used minnowboat | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | beds, kitchen, wc etc. | Mar 30 11:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | and the boat lasts decades | Mar 30 11:27 |
| techtrights-sec6 | If one thing came out of the whole fiasco is that the once great name of | Mar 30 11:27 |

| techtrights-sec6 | company. | Mar 30 11:27 |
| techtrights-sec6 | The new cars are far worse than Geerling's dishwasher. | Mar 30 11:27 |

| schestowitz-pi | <schestowitz[TR2]> > moving coins from one hand to another. | Mar 30 11:29 |
| schestowitz-pi | <schestowitz[TR2]> We wrote about it this morning and last night in IRC. We linked to some articles. I agree with what you say. | Mar 30 11:29 |
| schestowitz-pi | this web page "reeks" of marketing | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | buy that's 'ok' | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am not buying | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | it gives me a clue about price points | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | sometimes rianne and i go to shops just for me to study rrps | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | i do not take "apps" or "browsers" to the market | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | to look up prices | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | recerntly i got two nikes for riannew that retails at 100 | Mar 30 11:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | i paid 5 and 6 | Mar 30 11:32 |
| techtrights-sec6 | It is marketing, but there are no independenrt reviews anywhere. | Mar 30 11:37 |
| techtrights-sec6 | So the one takeaway from looking at just the one page is the approximate pricing | Mar 30 11:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | looking at used oes at ebay | Mar 30 11:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | Zassenhaus Santiago Manual Coffee Mill | Mar 30 11:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | for example | Mar 30 11:41 |

| schestowitz-pi | harvey bought me a very good steinmug\ | Mar 30 11:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | custom-made | Mar 30 11:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | i still use it | Mar 30 11:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | it was made in dedication | Mar 30 11:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | i quit my job a month before he died, without much notice | Mar 30 11:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | i didn't get a chance to tell him i had quit | Mar 30 11:41 |
| techtrights-sec6 | It is marketing, but there are no independenrt reviews anywhere. | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | So the one takeaway from looking at just the one page is the approximate pricing | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Just make sure the mill has more than a 2 or 3 cup capacity,. | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | You'll also need a kitchen scale, but those are common in the stores I think. | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | It is too hard to estimate the weight by sight and the flavor is too variable | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | when one tries to measure without a scale. | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Ground coffee is a different matter. It is pretty much a uniform density, | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | unblike the beans which can be loosely or tightly packed at random. | Mar 30 11:44 |
| schestowitz-pi | we have a good scale for the kitchen | Mar 30 11:44 |
| schestowitz-pi | for ages | Mar 30 11:44 |
| schestowitz-pi | we seldon use it, but it is there when needed | Mar 30 11:44 |
| schestowitz-pi | sometimes when booking parcels | Mar 30 11:44 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Nice | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | It happens like that. Often it is very sudden. | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | And random. | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | A friend traded shifts with someone else and the helicopter crashed killing | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | all onboard. It shook up my friend both from the loss of her work colleagues | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | as well as from the randomness by which she herself survived. | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Mar 30 11:46 | |
| techtrights-sec6 | Nice. I use our kitchen scale for coffee regularly. I can now usually | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | pour out the beans to the exact gram but still I can be off by enough to | Mar 30 11:46 |
| techtrights-sec6 | alter the flavor so I stick with using the scale. | Mar 30 11:46 |

| schestowitz-pi | today i bought oat-based "milk" with caramel flavouring "barrita" for my coffee | Mar 30 11:47 |
| schestowitz-pi | i want to try before i buy a whole box | Mar 30 11:47 |
| schestowitz-pi | so far it's good even without me adding any sugars | Mar 30 11:47 |
| schestowitz-pi | i try to avoid white sugar | Mar 30 11:47 |
| schestowitz-pi | my mom left us some artificial sweetener | Mar 30 11:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | i don' | Mar 30 11:48 |

| schestowitz-pi | i always associate it with cancer risk | Mar 30 11:48 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Artificial sweeteners are toxic. | Mar 30 11:48 |

| schestowitz-pi | i am aware | Mar 30 11:51 |

| schestowitz-pi | his grandparents had immigrated from the baltics, iirc | Mar 30 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | we are not blood related | Mar 30 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | but he was like a parewnt to me and considered me a son | Mar 30 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | we had good dialogue when i was a teen and he was 70+ | Mar 30 11:51 |

| schestowitz-pi | i will finish links soon, there's not much "collected" | Mar 30 11:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | the nets are empty | Mar 30 11:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | now with less rfa et al | Mar 30 11:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | google news is "risky"... anything there can be slop | Mar 30 11:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | no reputation scores | Mar 30 11:57 |
| schestowitz-pi | i cannot check one by one | Mar 30 11:57 |
| techtrights-sec6 | one of the non-English site had an article with exact numbers for how much | Mar 30 11:58 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Spotify rips off musicians: 0.02 /cents/ per play | Mar 30 11:58 |
| techtrights-sec6 | "If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?" | Mar 30 11:58 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Yes there is little newe published any more despite so much happening. | Mar 30 11:58 |
| techtrights-sec6 | The media has been purchased and silenced by the new owners. | Mar 30 11:58 |
| techtrights-sec6 | I stopped checking google news some time last summer | Mar 30 11:58 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Even then I only checked sporadically. | Mar 30 11:58 |
| schestowitz-pi | "If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?" | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | is not the most insidious | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | there are more alarming fallacies | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | but let's talk tech | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | spotify was blasted by "snoop dogg" | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | in cruder terms | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | to repeat: collecting _anything_ via/from/thru google noise is: | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | -rewarding google | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | -gives those site the idea they must target google | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | -puts you at risk of giving "vbisits" to slop | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | -may result in us linking to slop, without knowing it | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | \ | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | solution: focus on reputable, trusted feeds | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | (imho, ymmv) | Mar 30 12:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | in 2020/21 i checked ness about patents just to debunk and rant about how bad it had become | Mar 30 12:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | i now check "google noise" re "linux" for similar reasons | Mar 30 12:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | (tomorrow i deliver two gut punches, one direct, one via court) | Mar 30 12:04 |
| schestowitz-pi | then, at 10am, we go out for coffee | Mar 30 12:04 |
| schestowitz-pi | when it's about morale, will power and perserverance those less willing to carry on (or lacking prospects of justice) will drop out, irrespective of moral support, be it | Mar 30 12:13 |
| schestowitz-pi | warranted or not | Mar 30 12:13 |
| techtrights-sec6 | :) | Mar 30 12:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | a colleague dragged sirius tgo court | Mar 30 12:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | waiting for it to finish now | Mar 30 12:25 |
| techtrights-sec6 | what is the time line for that case? (approx) | Mar 30 12:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | i don't know, did not ask | Mar 30 12:26 |
| techtrights-sec6 | I hope he keeps you informed | Mar 30 12:26 |
