Sun 20:53:10 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, I would have been more impressed with hydrofluoric acid.
Sun 20:53:20 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But where would you even get any at that time of night? :P
Sun 20:53:46 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Sun 20:55:53 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJcfhwYJ5uc
Sun 20:56:04 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Jesse dissolves his bathtub (and a body) | Breaking Bad Season 1 | CLIP
Sun 20:56:14 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :)
Sun 20:57:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The entire scene is necessary.
Sun 20:57:49 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It just keeps escalating.
Sun 21:01:01 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, The problem with Mandy is I say "Oh God." just like Walter nearly every day over something.
Sun 21:21:46 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Basically there's a number of situations where you're better off legally if you just report yourself for a crime.
Sun 21:22:02 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But then you know, just don't say anything else until you have an attorney.
Sun 21:22:08 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Sun 21:22:20 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ He should have called the police and said "I found her, she was dead, that's all I know."
Sun 21:22:41 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ There may have been nothing they could charge him with.
Sun 21:22:56 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ How do they know if she got drugs from him? She's dead.
Sun 21:23:03 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ She won't be saying where she got drugs from.
Sun 21:23:14 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ All they know is she overdosed in his house.
Sun 21:23:47 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Another situation where you stop immediately, and stay there, and call 911 on yourself is if you hit someone in a car.
Sun 21:24:10 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Like, the pedestrian I hit who came running through an intersection from behind tree cover while my car was coming down a hill.
Sun 21:24:20 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ He lived and had a bruise, but that was all.
Sun 21:24:28 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Leaving the scene would have been a felony.
Sun 21:24:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I called 911 and stayed there.
Sun 21:24:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The police determined that there was no crime. My insurance went up a little bit for a couple years.
Sun 21:25:11 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You have all these people where I live that do hit and run felonies.
Sun 21:25:19 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It's just a stupid thing to go to prison for.
Sun 21:25:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The hit and run is two crimes, at least.
Sun 21:25:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ One for hit and run, and one for failure to report an accident.
Sun 21:25:54 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Those sound like the same thing, but they're actually not.
Sun 21:26:20 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ If you fled the scene and called 911 within a certain time frame it wouldn't be failure to report, but it would be leaving the scene.
Sun 21:26:43 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So people flee because they're drunk.
Sun 21:26:52 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But it's better to stop and call 911 even if you're drunk.
Sun 21:27:10 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You'll get in way less trouble for drunk driving than you will for fleeing and failure to report.
Sun 21:27:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So, the law is set up like this on purpose.
Sun 21:27:49 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Out of one incident, there's potentially between 3 and 7 criminal charges that could potentially come from it.
Sun 21:28:07 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They do this because it makes it easier to get you to plead down in exchange for almost nothing in return.
Sun 21:28:47 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ If there's only one crime on the indictment, you have not only less incentive to take a guilty plea, but the prosecutor has more incentive to come way down because he could only take one thing to trial.
Sun 21:29:04 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But when it's 3-7 charges, then you have a lot less room to negotiate.
Sun 21:29:13 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So they'll hit you with everything it could possibly be.
Sun 21:29:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They know that you know you won't get away from all of it.
Sun 21:30:04 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ That's why they're so good at "winning".
Sun 21:30:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They have ways of making innocent or "not so bad" people admit to things and try to move on.
Sun 21:30:57 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It may seem crude, but the sledgehammer is the only tool they really need.
Sun 21:35:40 │ 〖admfubar〗 │ baby grok now with 50% less fascism! https://www.firstpost.com/tech/innovation-or-damage-control-musk-unveils-baby-grok-for-kid-friendly-ai-content-13909340.html
Sun 21:36:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Less MechaHitler for the kids.
Sun 21:36:29 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, ^
Sun 21:36:39 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Sun 21:36:53 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Hitler in a biomechanical suit with twin chainguns.
Sun 21:37:01 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Best boss fight ever.
Sun 21:37:05 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ 4 chainguns
Sun 21:37:12 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Oh, did he?
Sun 21:37:16 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ he drops down to 2 when the armor's destroyed
Sun 21:37:37 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ (of course, what id calls "chaingun" is actually a gatling gun)
Sun 21:37:38 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ 4 with hitscan damage is pretty severe.
Sun 21:37:43 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Sun 21:38:04 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ How does it calculate a hit in that engine?
Sun 21:38:09 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Sun 21:38:13 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Do all of them hit if you're in the line of sight?
Sun 21:38:25 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ it's probably documented online but i don't know
Sun 21:38:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Or does it calculate hits and misses as well?
Sun 21:40:11 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "While his sprites suggest he would cause more damage when armored, in fact, he doesn't. The armor is most likely an excuse to give Hitler an amount of HP much higher than that of the other bosses. Both his forms combined have close to double the HP of Hans Grösse."
Sun 21:40:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, So whether Hitler has four or two chainguns, he causes the same damage.
Sun 21:40:43 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Sun 21:41:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "In the 2nd Encounter episode of the Mac Family, Hitler is always the ultimate boss. The censored SNES port renamed Hitler to Staatmeister (Adolf Trautmann in the Japanese version) who uses Hitler's sprite, though edited somewhat - he lacks a mustache and has a completely redrawn death animation. The paintings of Hitler in the SNES port were also changed, Staatmeister has no mustache nor swastika armband."
Sun 21:41:41 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Oh gee, the Staatmeister.
Sun 21:41:45 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I wonder who that could be.
Sun 21:46:06 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ https://wgntv.com/news/illinois/ap-3-democrat-led-states-have-rolled-back-medicaid-access-for-people-lacking-permanent-legal-status/
Sun 21:46:18 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Illinois rolling back healthcare for illegal aliens.
Sun 21:46:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "People are going to die."
Sun 21:46:43 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ He looked at me and said "WHY SO SERIOUS!? Let's put a smile on that face."
Sun 21:46:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ :D
Sun 21:46:47 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, ^'
Sun 21:47:01 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :)
Sun 21:47:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ “People are going to die. Some people are going to go untreated,” Alicia Hardy, chief executive officer of CommuniCARE+OLE clinics in California, said of the state’s Medicaid changes. “It’s hard to see the humanity in the decision-making that’s happening right now.”
Sun 21:47:39 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Communicare shouldn't use Object Linking and Embedding.
Sun 21:47:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It's been obsolete for years.
Sun 21:48:00 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I mean, they still use Windows 3 and wonder why government IT isn't wrotking very well?
Sun 21:48:22 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ to be fair, there are worse versions of Backdoors than 3
Sun 21:48:29 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ probably most of them
Sun 21:49:10 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ sure, it crashes a lot, but at least it starts a lot more quickly than the newer ones
Sun 21:49:31 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ plus it doesn't push ads or ruscist propaganda in your face
Sun 21:49:37 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ and doesn't tell you to schedule reboots
Sun 21:50:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ No, Windows 3 didn't do auto updates or really any updates.
Sun 21:50:49 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ indeed
Sun 21:50:51 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You got the version that came on the floppy disk.
Sun 21:51:00 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You could add internet software if you wanted.
Sun 21:51:09 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ and there's no point in updating MICROS~1 products anyway, it's not like they'll ever improve
Sun 21:51:16 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ it's better to keep it offline
Sun 21:51:22 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Networking software for Windows 3.1 was better than you might think.
Sun 21:51:41 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ could be, but only because i've seen too much of their crap to expect anything good
Sun 21:51:46 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Most people were not trying to exploit vulnerabilities in that.
Sun 21:51:58 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They were much more interested in getting malware onto the newer Windows 9x systems.
Sun 21:52:26 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ first time i moused over the "widgets" icon on freshly installed Backdoors 11 (not my computer, of course) what i got is a panel full of index.hu articles
Sun 21:52:37 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ index.hu is a propaganda site of the hungarian pedophile alliance
Sun 21:53:33 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ speaking of ruscist megacorporations, goolag is fucking with youtube downloads again
Sun 21:54:45 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They always are.
Sun 21:55:24 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I had to put Debian Backports on my Crostini to get new yt-dlp versions.
Sun 21:55:37 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Sites are always trying to fuck with people who want to download the videos.
Sun 21:55:55 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You can't trust the site that the video will always be there, much less that the ads won't get even worse.
Sun 21:56:46 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ https://abc7chicago.com/post/surveillance-video-shows-kidnapping-suspect-allegedly-held-woman-captive-days-food-water-texas/17212588/
Sun 21:57:02 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Video shows a kidnapper dragging a woman against her will, said the front page.
Sun 21:57:18 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Well, I'd find it much more interesting if a kidnapper was dragging a woman willingly.
Sun 21:57:30 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Sun 21:57:46 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Jose Carcamo hmmm
Sun 21:57:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Wonder if he's here legally.
Sun 21:58:10 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ That's the thing about illegal immigrants. No vetting.
Sun 21:58:25 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So you get more people who we would absolutely never let in through legal channels.
Sun 21:58:32 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ where's vetting working, though?
Sun 21:58:49 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ if it works, you should have tried it on your presidential candidates before one of them became king...
Sun 21:58:54 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Well, you basically ask their home country "Hey, do they have crime records there?"
Sun 21:59:04 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ trusting a state? bad idea.
Sun 21:59:07 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ And you look at their online presence.
Sun 21:59:14 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Well, it's worse when they just sneak in.
Sun 21:59:20 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Then you don't get to investigate them at all.
Sun 21:59:45 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ When a person breaks into the country and doesn't even bother to ask if it's okay...
Sun 21:59:52 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They've already committed a crime.
Sun 22:00:17 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So most illegal immigrants are criminals already.
Sun 22:00:31 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ If we have no record of this person even entering the country, it means illegal entry.
Sun 22:00:51 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Illegally entering the country is a crime.
Sun 22:01:06 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Overstaying a visa isn't a crime, but it's a civil matter with legal consequences.
Sun 22:01:15 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Such as being deported and banned for years, or even forever.
Sun 22:01:29 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ And if you re-enter when you've been banned that's an automatic felony.
Sun 22:01:39 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ none of it seems worse than what states, megacorporations and cults do
Sun 22:01:56 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Well, I'd like them to get to know these people a little better.
Sun 22:02:14 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ We'd have less stuff like the decapitated woman in bleach on the front lawn.
Sun 22:02:35 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Or the Venezuelan man and the Honduran man who killed a guy in Chicago that they met on Grindr.
Sun 22:06:29 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ lol @ dissolving the bathtub
Sun 22:11:09 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "Oh God!"
Sun 22:11:11 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ :D
Sun 22:11:28 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ He's a chemist. So he already knew what was happening back there before he looked.
Sun 22:12:04 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It will break down the molecular bonds of almost anything. One thing it won't eat through is #4 plastic.
Sun 22:12:31 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Which is why he gave Jesse specific instructions to go out and find a #4 plastic tub, and Jesse gave up after trying one home improvement store.
Sun 22:12:53 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ yeah
Sun 22:12:54 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ And went back and smoked some meth and decided that dissolving a body in his upstairs bathtub would be a quick way to dispose of it.
Sun 22:13:21 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, That's how they killed a T-1000 in Terminator Genesys.
Sun 22:13:34 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ #4, is that LDPE?
Sun 22:13:48 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They tricked it into running after one of them under a vat of acid and then ripped open the vat with bullets.
Sun 22:13:53 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Yep.
Sun 22:14:30 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You could see the T-1000 dissolving in parts and pieces and trying to keep its form together to kill them before it was destroyed completely.
Sun 22:14:37 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ That's job dedication for you I guess.
Sun 22:15:20 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :)

Sun 22:17:35 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :)
Sun 22:17:49 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ my favorite feature of the T-1000

Sun 22:20:51 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ what results if Kyle gets blown up?
Sun 22:20:55 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ Reese's Pieces.

Sun 22:24:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, The obvious thing to do if you're being mimicked by a T-1000 is to shout something only you could know.
Sun 22:24:45 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ :)
Sun 22:25:30 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It can only copy physical attributes and voices. It doesn't know what you know.

Mon 02:01:37 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "In 2019, Black people made up 12.2% of the U.S. population (U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey).

Mon 02:02:00 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Yeah, but the police only solve about 7-11% of all murders in Chicago, depending on the year.
Mon 02:02:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The police almost never catch serial killers.
Mon 02:03:38 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They tend to be middle age or older, white, highly intelligent, there's usually no relation to the victims, and sometimes the victims don't even have anything obvious in common.
Mon 02:04:42 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They almost always catch black murderers eventually, because the crime tends to be sloppy and obvious, committed in front of witnesses or even cameras, and gang or drug related.

Mon 03:28:30 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Last year Capital One said they had a special card offer just for Mandy, $300 bonus after $500 spend.
Mon 03:28:56 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They did a triple pull and declined it saying "too many credit cards". In other words, "We're not competing with all that."
Mon 03:29:29 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Mon 03:29:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So I found out this is one state where Capital One does do triple pulls on everyone (pulls all of the major bureaus).
Mon 03:30:01 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So every time they say they have a special offer for him I start singing "Baby come back! You can get a triple pull!"
Mon 03:32:19 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ what's a triple pull?
Mon 03:33:54 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ In the US, you have all kinds of credit scores.
Mon 03:34:01 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It depends on the model and submodel.
Mon 03:34:09 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ And there's also more than one credit bureau.
Mon 03:34:16 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They may not have the same information about you.
Mon 03:34:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ To make it even worse, they can modify the FICO software and even if they have the exact same information about you, your score can still be different between the bureaus.
Mon 03:35:29 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Banks that are really averse to risk and want to know everything about you, will use two or even three of the major bureaus, while others just use one.

Mon 03:36:18 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ For example, American Express will pull your Experian and TransUnion reports and use FICO 8 if you're a new customer, you will get hard pulls on both.
Mon 03:36:51 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Hard pulls damage your credit rating whether or not you get the card, but American Express is unique in that they tell you if you would get the card and you only get hard pulls if you accept it.
Mon 03:37:07 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Other banks make you apply, get the hard pulls, and then find out whether you're approved or not.
Mon 03:37:37 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ After you have one American Express personal credit card, you usually will not get hard pulls if you want another personal credit or charge card from them.

Mon 03:38:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They usually soft pull that one every month, but sometimes 3-4 times a month. Seems to depend on what mood the bank is in.
Mon 03:38:57 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ However, if you have personal cards and apply for a business, you'll get TU and EX hard pull again, and vice versa.
Mon 03:39:11 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So if you only have business cards, they'll hard pull you for personal ones.
Mon 03:39:54 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You're allowed to have five credit cards, any mix of personal and business.
Mon 03:39:58 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But charge cards don't count.

Tue 05:33:37 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Now what I do get a craving for sometimes is a Mustard Whopper. That's where you order a Whopper at Burger King with no mayo and no ketchup, and then have them put a ton of mustard on it. ("extra mustard")
Tue 05:34:45 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They used to have this on their menu back in the 70s, 80s, and early 90s, then they took it off. But it's not hard to order it because it's just a Whopper with no ketchup, no mayo, extra mustard. The Whopper normally has no mustard, but they all have mustard at Burger King because the hamburger has mustard.
Tue 05:35:41 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I think the reason why a Whopper works with no condiment but extra mustard is because grilling the burgers over a flame gives them a distinct taste, without drying them out.
Tue 05:36:27 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But if you take a quarter pounder at McDonald's and remove the ketchup then there's nothing to disguise the fact that the meat has been fried and is really dry.
Tue 05:36:52 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You need something to "grease" the McDonald's burger and disguise the fact that they don't taste very good.
Tue 05:37:10 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So they start dumping salt, mustard, ketchup, and mayo on them, then you don't notice.
