| DaemonFC | I just took an interview about how I feel about the minimum wage in this country and employers that pay close to it. | Oct 04 18:05 |
| DaemonFC | I said that I think that the minimum wage should be raised to $10.72 an hour and that employers should be required to give food service workers a few paid sick days per year and at least catastrophic care health and dental insurance. | Oct 04 18:06 |
| DaemonFC | and that I disagree with restaurants that require customers to tip | Oct 04 18:06 |
| DaemonFC | they should pay their employees and build the price of their wages into the menu | Oct 04 18:07 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz, I mentioned Dawn. | Oct 04 18:08 |
| DaemonFC | I told the interviewer that I knew that her employer didn't give her any sick days and so when she had the flu, they had her in the back washing dishes. | Oct 04 18:08 |
| DaemonFC | I told the interviewer that this is disgusting, but probably pretty common, and that I agree with the cities that are passing laws to give food service workers a few paid sick days. | Oct 04 18:09 |
| DaemonFC | I told him that I don't know how people even survive that. | Oct 04 18:10 |
| DaemonFC | That kind of employment. | Oct 04 18:10 |
| DaemonFC | The minimum wage for restaurant servers is only $2.12 per hour, and they rely on how generous their customers happen to be to make up the slack. | Oct 04 18:10 |
| DaemonFC | So some of them might do well, and others may not. They might work very hard and not make very much money. It's more or less just luck. | Oct 04 18:11 |
| DaemonFC | He asked me if I'd heard of the strikes and I told him yes. | Oct 04 18:12 |
| DaemonFC | He asked how I felt about them. I said that I support the workers in principle, but that their employers will just get away with hiring scabs and strike breakers, so it will probably just end up costing them their jobs. | Oct 04 18:12 |
| DaemonFC | I don't think that people who do entry level/service jobs should be paid an exorbitant amount of money. $15 an hour is too much. | Oct 04 18:14 |
| DaemonFC | But they shouldn't be making $7 or $8 an hour either, because you can't live on that. | Oct 04 18:14 |
| DaemonFC | He asked whether that impacts my choice to eat at those restaurants. I told him that I don't go there as much as I'd really like to because of that. I go a few times a year when it's someone's birthday or something, and I tip well, but that I generally avoid them the rest of the time. | Oct 04 18:15 |
| DaemonFC | I think it's ridiculous when a restaurant charges you $25 for a steak dinner and $5 for a bottle of beer and the waitress is making minimum wage. | Oct 04 18:16 |
| DaemonFC | You might have 7-8 people sitting at that table, and a bill for over $200 when you leave the restaurant, and the wait staff are not even making $3 an hour if they don't get their tips. | Oct 04 18:17 |
| DaemonFC | I said that expecting the customer to pay your employees is vulgar. | Oct 04 18:17 |

| DaemonFC | They asked me what difference I thought the Bush Tax Cuts made for the working poor. | Oct 04 18:50 |
| DaemonFC | I said "Probably none at all. The way those employers think, if their employees get a $500 a year tax cut, it's justification to pay them $500 less every year." | Oct 04 18:50 |

| schestowitz_bed | Prior to that - this will make you laugh - in the 1970s - Cold War - a Finnish friend was refused entry - despite guaranteed employment etc. - because Finland was regarded as "suspect". | Oct 04 19:20 |

| DaemonFC | The thing about impact damage being repaired is that they can make the vehicle look right, but it might not ever be right again. | Oct 04 20:05 |

| DaemonFC | MinceR, It's almost impossible to find a good used minivan. | Oct 04 20:18 |
| DaemonFC | People run them into the ground and then sell them. | Oct 04 20:18 |
| DaemonFC | Almost all of them I see for sale have more than 200,000 miles on them. | Oct 04 20:19 |
| DaemonFC | I wouldn't pay much more than crush value for a vehicle over 200,000. | Oct 04 20:19 |

| DaemonFC | There's a lot of those floating around. Flood damage and stuff. | Oct 04 20:22 |
| DaemonFC | Messes up the car's electrical system but sometimes doesn't leave any visible damage. | Oct 04 20:22 |
| DaemonFC | I don't know exactly why, but a lot of these newer cars (2000 and later) have severe rust problems. | Oct 04 20:24 |
| DaemonFC | I suspect that they're designed to start rusting after several years to destroy the remaining value. | Oct 04 20:25 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, The funniest thing I've ever witnessed in regards to vehicle damage was when I was leaving a bar with a friend and he backed into someone's Cadillac DeVille. | Oct 04 20:40 |
| DaemonFC | Looked pretty new. | Oct 04 20:40 |
| DaemonFC | Him: "Shit! Did anyone see that?" *drives off* | Oct 04 20:40 |
| MinceR | didn't fundies rage about the name of that car? :> | Oct 04 20:40 |
| DaemonFC | I was giggling about that for days. | Oct 04 20:40 |
| DaemonFC | My grandmother drives one. | Oct 04 20:41 |
| DaemonFC | She bought it by mortgaging her house. | Oct 04 20:41 |
| DaemonFC | Her house is in such disrepair that she owes more to the bank than what it's worth. | Oct 04 20:41 |
| DaemonFC | She took the mortgage out on it when we were in the middle of the housing bubble. | Oct 04 20:41 |
| DaemonFC | She was bragging about having a Cadillac one day and I told her "I don't think they have any parking spots in hell.". | Oct 04 20:42 |

| Sosumi | http://rt.com/usa/adobe-hacked-krebs-hold-742/ | Oct 04 21:45 |
| Sosumi | hope the crackers release the source code of adobe's trash player | Oct 04 21:46 |
| Sosumi | I really don't understand the whole hackerspace thing, we have one at my university, but it's idiotic | Oct 04 21:50 |
| Sosumi | playing with arduino, rasperberry Pis for trivial stuff | Oct 04 21:51 |
| Sosumi | instead of focusing on common things that actually have use | Oct 04 21:51 |
| Sosumi | no AI lab, no computer penetration and security, no signals intelligence | Oct 04 21:54 |
| JimmyCarter | signals intelligence? | Oct 04 21:58 |
| Sosumi | yes | Oct 04 21:58 |
| JimmyCarter | what would that hackspace activity consist of? | Oct 04 21:58 |
| Sosumi | my proposal was to create a android app to filter the celullar network | Oct 04 21:59 |
| JimmyCarter | are any not encrypted? | Oct 04 22:00 |
| Sosumi | so the user could, for now manually, select which signals he would want to connect | Oct 04 22:00 |
| Sosumi | yes and inform if they are encrypted, or not | Oct 04 22:00 |
| Sosumi | and also teach algos, to create a signal strenght to noise ratio for position inside the campus using the internal wifi network | Oct 04 22:01 |
| JimmyCarter | guess could also listen in on police scanners. not sure for what purpose | Oct 04 22:01 |
| JimmyCarter | just because 'signals intelligence' sounds cool heh | Oct 04 22:02 |
| Sosumi | yeah :) | Oct 04 22:02 |
| *ThistleWeb is now known as DanielIvanov | Oct 04 22:02 | |
| Sosumi | later could have them create a "snooper" | Oct 04 22:02 |
| Sosumi | all for academic porpuses | Oct 04 22:03 |
| *DanielIvanov is now known as ThistleWeb | Oct 04 22:04 | |
| Sosumi | could also have them build a stock market simulation | Oct 04 22:04 |
| Sosumi | and/or tap the chatter on the web to predict trends, rises, mood of the nation, etc | Oct 04 22:05 |
| Sosumi | the fun stuff of which they can learn something that'll be usable in real life | Oct 04 22:07 |

| JimmyCarter | well you can work on whatever you want at a hackspace | Oct 04 22:33 |
| JimmyCarter | maybe after you hangout there awhile youl meet others who want to help | Oct 04 22:33 |
| DaemonFC | Comcast keeps offering to help me save money. | Oct 04 22:42 |
| DaemonFC | Somehow their definition of saving money is doubling your bill. | Oct 04 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | I don't think I need that kind of help. | Oct 04 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | "You save $10 a month on your internet when you bundle it with a TV package!" | Oct 04 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | Me: "Yeah, but then I'm paying for a bunch of crap channels and all kinds of fees and equipment rental and tax." | Oct 04 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | I actually had AT&T call a few days ago. | Oct 04 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | I told the guy I hate money. | Oct 04 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | I said I've got a whole pile of it and if they don't take it all, I'm going to go out back and burn it. | Oct 04 22:45 |
| DaemonFC | I kept him going for a while before I got to that. | Oct 04 22:45 |
| DaemonFC | Eventually he caught on and hung up on me. | Oct 04 22:45 |
| DaemonFC | http://www.lwsd.org/school/emhs/SiteCollectionDocuments/Economy%20-%20Comcast%20Flier%20Session%205%20NL.pdf | Oct 04 22:47 |
| DaemonFC | But, if you're a parasite with a lot of kids on welfare, Comcast will give you internet for $10 a month with no modem rental fees. | Oct 04 22:48 |
| DaemonFC | They'll even sell you a computer below cost if you want one. | Oct 04 22:48 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, I just need to have like five or six kids I can't afford and then I'll be cleaning up. My problem is that I'm one of those people who was stupid and responsible and decided against having lots of kids. | Oct 04 22:49 |
| MinceR | save money -- for us! :> | Oct 04 22:49 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah. I calculated what my Comcast bill would be while the rep was on the phone with me and I told him that my bill would go from $52 a month for internet to $126 for internet and a crappy TV package. | Oct 04 22:50 |
| DaemonFC | Asked him where the savings were. | Oct 04 22:50 |
| DaemonFC | "What I'd like is for you to stop offering to bundle my internet with a bunch of things that nobody under 50 cares about." | Oct 04 22:51 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Oct 04 22:51 |
| DaemonFC | My mom keeps complaining that her TV bill is high. | Oct 04 22:51 |
| DaemonFC | It's because Dave sits there on the couch in his underwear watching people shout at each other on the "news". | Oct 04 22:52 |
| DaemonFC | and they suck another $70 a month out of you for that. | Oct 04 22:52 |
| DaemonFC | Jesus... | Oct 04 22:52 |
| DaemonFC | I can't believe people actually pay for that. | Oct 04 22:52 |
| DaemonFC | Silly old me, I'd rather have an extra $800 a year in my pocket. | Oct 04 22:54 |
| DaemonFC | What could I possibly be thinking? | Oct 04 22:54 |
| *DaemonFC has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Oct 04 22:55 | |
| Sosumi | ho, no no no | Oct 04 23:04 |
| Sosumi | they coordenate the thing | Oct 04 23:05 |
| Sosumi | like, next week it's about playing with solidworks and 3d print the thing that was created | Oct 04 23:06 |
| Sosumi | on the week after it's about arduino and robots, hopefully they'll introduce the folks there to computer vision and pattern recognition | Oct 04 23:07 |
| Sosumi | they have the thing delimited | Oct 04 23:08 |
| Sosumi | instead of the ppl gathering, discussing what they want to do, make groups, learn what they need in a "familiar" environment and finish their project | Oct 04 23:13 |
| Sosumi | and ho well, dassault sistemes is one of the corporate patners anyways... | Oct 04 23:14 |
