[11:03] DaemonFC I don't know why. I just do. [11:04] DaemonFC Yesterday, Mandy asked me what I meant by using the term "stool pigeon". [11:04] DaemonFC So I rattled off ten more words or so and just confused him more. [11:05] DaemonFC I was talking about the law that requires psychiatrists in Illinois to report anyone they think is really depressed or angry to the state police so that they can revoke a FOID card. There's mandatory reporting, which means if you say anything to them that's on a list, they have to report it within 48 hours. [11:05] DaemonFC And there's voluntary reporting, where they can just log in and inform on you at-will. [11:06] DaemonFC I said if anything ever happened to my psychiatrist, I'd probably go see one in Wisconsin since we're close enough and they don't have the stool pigeon law. [11:07] DaemonFC It just stops people from telling the psychiatrist how they feel and blowing off steam. [11:07] DaemonFC Like, "Can you believe the nerve of my wife? She left me, wiped out the bank account, took the kids, took the house, took the furniture, took my retirement plan, and took the ice cube trays out of the goddamned fridge. I swear to God I'm mad enough to strangle her.". [11:08] DaemonFC Stool pigeon law kicks in, and a few months later. MONTHS....so if you were actually going to go shoot her, it wouldn't even stop you, the state police revoke your FOID card and order you to surrender your guns to be destroyed.

[11:11] DaemonFC The law actually makes violence more likely because people will withhold their true feelings, maybe from the only person who could calm them down and talk some sense into them. [11:12] DaemonFC Because the stool pigeon law moves at the speed of government, it gives people up to five months to actually go shoot someone if they meant it.

[11:20] DaemonFC They don't want to be forced to comply with it. [11:21] DaemonFC For Illinois to have jurisdiction, the state must be involved somehow. So that means you physically have to take the train up to Kenosha to go see a psychiatrist who won't be bound by the stoolie law. [11:23] DaemonFC The nice thing is I don't have one of those shitass Obamacare plans that often leaves you with no in-network healthcare coverage if you leave the _county_ much less the state. [11:23] DaemonFC So I have options that many people do not. [11:24] DaemonFC I was looking on their train wreck of a website, schestowitz-TR2 [11:24] DaemonFC To see what coverage options would be if one were to buy a Marketplace health insurance plan in my ZIP code.

[11:26] DaemonFC But when you have a heart attack and the paramedics have minutes to get you somewhere, they're not going to drive 10-15 miles to get you to a NM hospital if Vista Medical Center is 2 miles. [11:27] DaemonFC So they take you to Vista and your Obamacare plan says they're not covering it at in-network rates because "you chose poorly" (yes, that was an Indiana Jones reference). [11:27] DaemonFC Nevermind the fact that it was a medical emergency, seconds counted, and you may not have even been in a position to speak. [11:28] DaemonFC Or even worse, you go out of the county and need medical care at a place that doesn't even have a Northwestern Medicine clinic. [11:28] DaemonFC I mean, how often do people leave counties, anyway? Then you have to file appeals, and the insurance company doesn't want to pay, so they figure out ways to "adjust" the claim so they still don't have to. [11:29] DaemonFC This is what Obummer/Brandon have left us with over here. [11:30] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR2, Then someone at Blue Cross told me to "use the app" to look at Mandy's claims.

And that started a tug of war with Quest going "No it wasn't!", then me going "Was too!", then them, "Was not!....Was too...Was not.... and then I handed the credit bureaus EOB letters from the insurance [11:33] DaemonFC company and it all fell off his reports because at that point Quest went "Oh yeah, THOSE payments....well shit.". [11:34] DaemonFC Extortion. They don't like what the insurance pays, so they take the money and then "forget" that they were already paid, and come after you to double dip. [11:35] DaemonFC And of course, the way credit bureaus work in America is sort of like a protection racket. Right? [11:35] DaemonFC You get a bill in the mail and go "Hey wait a minute. I don't owe you this much and here's why!" so they just go ahead and turn it over to collections, the bureau doesn't verify anything, and simply reports false information. [11:36] DaemonFC This is like the Chicago Outfit going around kindly offering that your business won't catch fire if you pay them fire protection money. [11:37] DaemonFC It's very hard to keep "clean" credit reports, even if you pay your bills. Because nothing prevents them from lying. [11:38] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR2, The Windows on ARM thing.....

[11:40] DaemonFC GCC has always had questionable optimization routines that always almost make you pay ten times as much somewhere else along the way as what the optimization was worth. [11:40] activelow in practice, such as ARM, still offer non-pipelined CPUs, the "low end" ones often do not do it, and are not prone to speculative execution, such as cortex a53 [11:40] *gullfaxi[m] (~cuginogio@2001:470:69fc:105::1:6ac8) has joined #techrights [11:40] activelow simplified speaking [11:41] DaemonFC So if, in fact, Intel gets to put them straight into the microarchitecture optimizers, then I'm not surprised.

[11:41] activelow 2) i do not bother with gcc updates anymore, it's a platform to push and support proprietary vendor extensions [11:42] activelow the last GCC version barely acceptable is gcc-4.7.4, my opinion [11:42] DaemonFC Because they will limit overall compatibility of the compiled code and then THAT isn't worth it until and unless the feature becomes generic enough to x86 that it's okay to put in the generic optimizer routines. [11:42] DaemonFC And when you no longer care about old processors anyway. [11:44] DaemonFC If Intel or AMD adds a feature to their CPUs, it usually doesn't matter much for 10-15 years, until the other one has it too and the hardware that doesn't is so old that nobody cares anymore.

[12:08] DaemonFC The Rockefeller Foundation is passing them out to majority-black ZIP codes. [12:08] DaemonFC But they don't actually say it that way. [12:09] DaemonFC They call it the CDC "social vulnerability index". [12:09] DaemonFC Smells like bullshit. [12:10] DaemonFC Their program seems to be designed to just let the shit hit the fan everywhere white people live. [12:10] DaemonFC I wonder where all of this money of theirs for the test kids _really_ comes from. [12:10] DaemonFC Because they're not cheap. [12:10] DaemonFC They cost $9 each. [12:10] DaemonFC Adds up. [12:10] DaemonFC Maybe they got it from Brandon.

[12:21] DaemonFC The Democrats are a very very racist party. [12:22] DaemonFC Those black people, if they're not doing anything malicious with the gun, would be better off in Indiana, where there is no Felony Agg UUW law for simple carrying.

[12:23] DaemonFC In fact, if you're not a malicious person you can just go pay $100 and get a lifetime open carry permit there, and then they can't do anything. [12:24] DaemonFC You really can't argue with the facts because the facts don't care, and the fact is that Illinois openly admits that 80% of the victims of this law are black, in prison, and they have no intention whatsoever to let any of them out, even if that was the only thing they've EVER done. [12:24] DaemonFC They're making it worse, using biometrics and social media. [12:25] DaemonFC The FOID Amendments Act ended up passing with "optional" biometrics and without the amendment to mandate that the Illinois State Police check your Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Russia and China are more powerful now than they were then, and the United States could back Ukraine against an invasion but actually most likely won't.

[15:11] DaemonFC If people could take on a second job, but the "punishment" for doing so is the tax department takes half of their additional earnings, then there's no reason to take the job because it now pays less than what the free time is worth.

[18:37] DaemonFC Wasn't even getting in their way. [18:37] MinceR + [18:37] DaemonFC Didn't threaten anyone. [18:37] DaemonFC Just holding a sign.

[18:38] DaemonFC And Social Security stopped her retirement checks and made her prove she wasn't in jail, and then never paid her for the month they took them away. [18:39] DaemonFC The police can report to Social Security that you're an inmate in their jail. [18:39] DaemonFC And that can cause Social Security to stop paying you, even if you are to be released immediately and have not even been tried for anything yet. [18:40] DaemonFC Since Social Security pays very little, even missing one check can cause a person to go homeless or without any food or heat that month. [18:41] DaemonFC So the cops just did it to be even nastier to her, even though saying she was an "inmate" to the Social Security Administration was a lie. [18:41] DaemonFC And therefore, the police committed a federal offense. [18:43] XRevan86 I really like that the software of choice was Linphone for Android.

[19:14] DaemonFC People said, "Why do they have to call it marriage? We could just call it a civil union and keep it at that.". and that's fine in many cases, except that federal law doesn't say anything about civil unions, so they don't exist as far as the federal government is concerned, even if they're entirely equal to the legal rights of marriage in your state. [19:15] DaemonFC So if you get a civil union, you can't sponsor an immigrant, file a joint tax return at the federal level, or conduct any business with Social Security like a married couple would. [19:15] DaemonFC And if the feds put you on trial, they could force your "partner" to testify against you. [19:16] DaemonFC So some of them were fine with trapping us in civil unions, saying it was the same thing, and then not really. [19:16] DaemonFC And they never tried to amend federal law to refer to civil unions. [19:17] DaemonFC So they knew it wasn't equal and never tried to make it equal. [19:17] DaemonFC Maybe if it was equal except in name, nobody would have bothered to sue.

[19:18] DaemonFC I also don't understand need to reclaim a word. [19:18] DaemonFC Like, Mr. Gafam uses the word "partner". [19:18] DaemonFC Like, if we say "partner" we'll "take it back" from "them". [19:19] DaemonFC Of course, "they" continue to use it and it makes them look like idiots, and they are idiots, and being idiots means that subtlety or irony or sarcasm and other simple concepts are lost on them. [19:20] DaemonFC So they wouldn't understand the attempt to neutralize a spiteful term by "taking it back". [19:20] DaemonFC But many of them do recognize an insult being hurled back at them. [19:20] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Elton John is British, things can potentially be different there. [19:20] DaemonFC So when a married person starts saying "your friend", I point at their spouse and say "your friend" the next time I have an excuse to work that into a sentence. [19:21] XRevan86 So, "the law" can mean a different thing for him than for you. [19:22] MinceR "I alone will fight for Jesus Christ [19:22] MinceR With sword so sharp I can make cheeses sliced." [19:22] DaemonFC Yeah, they don't have any concept of federalism, I don't think, and that's causing a great deal of problems of its own. [19:23] DaemonFC A national government that doesn't recognize local/regional variations in law, customs, etc. tends to brew resentment. [19:23] DaemonFC It's a one size fits all situation, and as anyone knows, one size never fits all. [19:24] DaemonFC The awful part of that is that the US federal government spent hundreds of years turning itself into that anyway, and THEN you have to live under a state as well. [19:25] DaemonFC The federal government neglects every state's needs. The reason DC residents can complain more is they have no representation at all, not even the crummy, narcissistic, gerrymandered representation of millionaires and billionaires that states send to Washington. [19:25] XRevan86 DaemonFC: A surgeon that performed female circumcision on a little girl was effectively pardoned despite being in clear violation of the law, the justification given is that one should understand local cultural norms. [19:26] XRevan86 (that was against the mother's wishes, but a Chechen father had his own plans) [19:27] XRevan86 In the US a good exampls of one size not being fitted onto all is all the chaos and different procedures used in the general elections. [19:27] DaemonFC It's not terribly different, in practice. [19:28] DaemonFC There's different laws about getting a mail-in ballot, or if you need an ID to vote, or when you can register by. [19:28] XRevan86 It's practically impossible to assess whether the process is fair, because the process differs so much from region to region. [19:28] DaemonFC Oh it's not fair. [19:28] DaemonFC In fact, it's completely unfair. [19:29] DaemonFC They only want "partisans" (read idiots) voting. [19:29] XRevan86 DaemonFC: What if computers are involved? Who is going to give a guarantee that the system is secure everywhere? [19:29] DaemonFC So they design laws steering more of one of the two sides to the polls than the other. [19:29] DaemonFC DaemonFC: What if computers are involved? Who is going to give a guarantee that the system is secure everywhere? [19:29] DaemonFC I doubt that the process is wholly fake. [19:29] DaemonFC But they do pass laws to nudge things. [19:30] XRevan86 DaemonFC: "wholly" <- that's the thing. [19:31] XRevan86 Elections should have high standards, and someone should be responsible for when they're not met. [19:32] DaemonFC I talked to Mayor Tom Henry in Fort Wayne about why he wasn't running for Governor of Indiana. [19:32] DaemonFC He said he thought about it, but he'd have no control at all over the state legislature even if he won, and as the mayor of a large city, he actually had a lot of control over the legislative process, and now he has more than he did then. [19:32] DaemonFC So no incentive to move up. [19:33] DaemonFC The only thing that would happen is the legislature would start overriding all of his vetoes and he'd have no power at all. [19:33] XRevan86 I just find annoying how the key decision-making instrument can be so kind of broken. [19:34] DaemonFC Indiana is kind of a special case though. [19:34] XRevan86 But I live in a dictatorship, so things can definitely be worse than that. [19:34] DaemonFC In many ways, the Governor is actually only a figurehead. [19:35] DaemonFC Even if, during his term(s) vacancies happened on the courts, the legislature would rather leave them empty than let him appoint anyone. [19:35] DaemonFC There's no minimum number of judges on the state's supreme court to have a quorum, and they're all Republicans now. [19:35] DaemonFC They probably wouldn't all die or retire, so the court could function with vacancies. [19:36] DaemonFC The Governor has very little authority except to execute the laws, and he doesn't even really have much of a veto power. [19:36] DaemonFC In Illinois, the system is very different. [19:37] DaemonFC If the Governor vetoes something, it takes a two-thirds majority to override, so some get overruled, and some don't. And there's negotiation, and the Governor can get bills changed. [19:37] DaemonFC I've always wondered why Indiana even has a Governor. [19:38] DaemonFC You know, Nebraska only has a state senate, not a state house. [19:38] DaemonFC It was combined to save money during the Depression. [19:38] DaemonFC The legislature in Indiana has been on a tear against their own Governor! [19:39] DaemonFC They're passing an anti-vaccine mandate now, and thy got rid of the face masks a long time ago. [19:39] DaemonFC Not enough people in Indiana could possibly die of COVID to matter in the elections and they all support policies that will kill more of them. [19:39] DaemonFC So there's no reason to do anything else.

[23:47] schestowitz-TR2 back when those were fashionable [23:47] XRevan86 (kudos to BadDaemon) [23:47] bnchs___ the first one (partial "unlocking") is what HTC gives out for free, but the full unlocking has to be done unofficially. it's called S-OFF/S-ON (as in secure boot) and its the most shittiest thing that HTC has done [23:48] DaemonFC I agree. I talked to the national one once because I really was severely depressed a couple of years ago and I just wanted some general advice, but I did it from Tor Browser on top of a VPN server in the Netherlands. [23:48] DaemonFC To make it harder to dox me.

[23:48] schestowitz-TR2 they have to follow guidelines [23:49] MinceR i'd rather not punch laptops [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 so they don't act like natural people [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 they are monitored "for training purposes" etc [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 and surely the employer records it all [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 not likely to discard these [23:49] schestowitz-TR2 "evidence" [23:49] DaemonFC I think I might have had more productive conversations with that old DOS "psychiatrist" program.

[23:50] schestowitz-TR2 and neither them nor psycho* anything respect your confidentiality [23:50] schestowitz-TR2 many of them joke to their mates after the session [23:50] schestowitz-TR2 "so today I had this crazy guy in the clinic or on ZOOM... oh wait... zoom isn't spying, HONEST!!' [23:51] activelow zoom is the spy [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 of course [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 and a foreign one too [23:51] DaemonFC It's nothing horrible, but it's information that could cause serious damage. [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 I bet NSA has some programs to pick up psycho* sessions [23:51] DaemonFC And so it stays trapped in my head. [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 off of Microsoft and Zoom etc. [23:51] XRevan86 ~A foreign agent^U~ [23:51] schestowitz-TR2 that later helps them discredit people [23:52] DaemonFC Nobody to talk to about it except myself.
