Just put fucking spikes everywhere so they can't lay down. [00:00] DaemonFC Send Chicago PD in to set their stuff on fire. [00:00] activelow it was more respectful if the woman could get the food inside the supermarket, not from the trash [00:01] DaemonFC When he realized it, he put it on a cart for her. [00:01] activelow if dumpster diving makes anyone feel respectful, i don't know [00:01] DaemonFC And just turned around and let her put it all in her car and drive off. [00:01] activelow that's now how society is supposed to work, to earn a living, with dignity [00:02] DaemonFC She said they'd eat that meat and canned vegetables that the store threw out because of the sell by date. [00:02] DaemonFC They're good for another year or two assuming the can is fine. [00:03] activelow shall this be an example for anyone, to dumpster dive for food, and feel somehow respectful about it? [00:03] DaemonFC The longer you live in a place ran by Democrats, the more you see people at their worst. [00:03] DaemonFC Illinois is a fucking shithole. [00:03] DaemonFC If you show weakness here, it just means someone will mug you. [00:04] activelow have no plans to visit chicago. rather want back my home i once had. east-germany, live among my people, study and work, and do my job. [00:04] DaemonFC I was talking to my attorney about the two guys in the car that hit me. [00:04] activelow a place where i can work and live in PEACE. [00:04] activelow and this is what ended, after 1990, not before. [00:04] DaemonFC He said, "Oh those people are animals. They're not operating at your level. Trust me.". [00:05] DaemonFC Yes, "shock therapy". [00:05] DaemonFC Something similar happened after the Civil War here. [00:05] DaemonFC The economy of the south never recovered. [00:06] activelow i mean, east germany was horrible. can't say i am happy now, after enjoying the "freedom" promised after 1990. [00:06] DaemonFC Slavery would have ended one way or another, eventually. [00:07] activelow if at least this was a "social market economy", but it is neither a market economy, nor social. [00:07] DaemonFC Agitators in the north were trying to dictate harsh terms because there was a divide between an economy in the south that, for the time, required lots of manual labor, and heavy industry in the north. [00:07] DaemonFC And the heavy industry people in the north, the people who owned it, took advantage of people's disgust of slavery in order to precipitate a war, that didn't have to happen. [00:08] DaemonFC So that they could crush the south and not have to worry about competing with industry that would establish itself down there. [00:08] DaemonFC And they were so successful that for well over 100 years, the southern states were ruined. [00:08] DaemonFC Now, because of labor unions and such, a lot of heavy industry is going to the south. [00:09] DaemonFC It's turning the northern states bankrupt and without enough jobs. [00:09] DaemonFC The only people who don't mind are the people taking up space and committing crimes. [00:09] DaemonFC They never pay taxes. [00:09] DaemonFC One prison is as good as another.

[00:13] activelow how stupid this was, because, if i had placed cash money under my pillow, this wouldn't have been considered by the bureaucrats that i did save money. [00:13] *altlink_0d5 has quit (connection closed) [00:13] activelow to establish a company and an office. [00:13] *altlink_b25 (~altlink_b25@2f7u5j6f87p9g.irc) has joined #techrights [00:14] DaemonFC Didn't you have to turn it in at an exchange rate? [00:14] DaemonFC They still would have known you got it from somewhere.' [00:14] activelow yes, i reported all income always, but i did save cash, which was taxed again because i did. [00:15] activelow if i had wasted all this money, to go on holidays, gamble and buy a car for example, then this wouldn't have been accounted for when looking for yet another job. [00:15] activelow reminds me, when IBM "generously" offered job placement, i would have had to relocate again, more than ten times in 10 years, but then to munich. [00:16] DaemonFC I heard that the cars were so bad that people just abandoned them in the streets. [00:16] DaemonFC That can't possibly be true. People will use a car until it doesn't work anymore. [00:16] activelow couldn't afford it anymore anyway, couldn't afford to heat my flat anymore at least, leave alone gasoline. [00:17] activelow "social ecological" they say... which is effectively ruining competitive and productive business, in germany. [00:18] activelow it isn't "democrats" here, they call themselves "social democrats" or "christian" or "ecological" "green" etc... they're all the same type of USA/washington minions. [00:18] activelow they're all "atlantic bridge" affiliates, following the agenda dictated by USA. [00:19] activelow "freedom" they said, and "social market economy" ... what an irony, it's less freedom than former east-germany, more surveillance, more propaganda [00:19] DaemonFC That must be tough. [00:19] DaemonFC I mean, to pull off. [00:20] DaemonFC The US is getting like this. [00:20] DaemonFC You have freedom of speech, of course, of course. [00:20] activelow i mean, i grew up in east-germany, and remember what it was like. it is remarkable often, who thinks may lecture me about it. who never had enjoyed this. [00:20] DaemonFC But if you use it, you'll be ruined and de-platformed. [00:20] DaemonFC If the corporate trolls don't like it. [00:21] activelow well, i do not want to participate in this "meta" corporate surveillance capitalism anyway. [00:21] DaemonFC Well, in many ways it was being propped up by the Soviet Union. [00:21] DaemonFC As evidenced by the fact that it couldn't go on without them. [00:22] activelow i man, Stasi would be jealous about the surveillance state established nowadays. [00:22] DaemonFC For any amount of time. [00:22] DaemonFC Richard Stallman mentioned this. [00:22] DaemonFC If someone had told Stalin that they had invented the iPhone. [00:22] DaemonFC He would have said, "That's great! How many can we build? And people will carry them without arguing about it?". [00:23] activelow east-germany wasn't stalinist. and germany remained intact as a nation somehow, it was finally ruined *after* 1990 [00:23] XRevan86 DaemonFC: http://droider.ru/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/00705154.jpg [00:23] MinceR (cat) https://i.imgur.com/wQ0Oe9P.jpeg [00:23] -altlink_b25/#techrights- Cloudflare: imgur.com | Alternative: https://web.archive.org/web/https://i.imgur.com/wQ0Oe9P.jpeg [00:23] XRevan86 He'd look like that? [00:25] activelow well, germany isn't neither russia nor usa, even at it's peak as "german empire" germany hasn't been any great power in comparison to soviet union or usa [00:28] activelow probably the worst aspect of east germany was the ecological impact of heavy industry, it was nightmare, it was killing children [00:29] activelow this is where the "democratic front" was rooted, the opposition in former east germany, and after 1990 this ecological movement was absorbed itno the western political apparatus [00:29] activelow i think, most members of this "green" party aren't aware themselves, they're now following an agenda dictated by the oil industry, with their "climate change" "communication strategy" [00:30] activelow same label "alliance90/greens", but completely different content; same with the socialist left of former east germany, which re-aligned themselves into a "live-style communist" hippi community, completely different to what the socialist left had been [00:31] activelow nonetheless, they're selling something completely different nowadays, as "socialist left" than what it was in 1990 [00:33] activelow and the idiot i had been, i somehow believed it was a "social market economy" and "freedom" which would welcome east-germans into a "united europe" [00:35] activelow nowadays this "ecological" movement is mostly concerned with "gender issues" and similar, falsifying history, to re-frame the entire argument into their insane ideological framework [00:36] activelow it has become impossible to participate in this political debate at all, it's now all inside "meta" where the most provocative agitators are listened to, instead of those who knew what "socialism" was, or how mothers lived in east germany, for example [00:37] activelow beginning at the age of 3 years, children often were brought into the kindergarden, and mothers worked in shifts, during "cold war" era [00:37] activelow of cause, nowadays, socialist kindergards are the best corporate idea ever invented [00:37] activelow kindergardens [00:38] activelow i mean, if they want to enjoy this, i don't care anymore to say anything [00:41] activelow another promise after 1990 was a "constitutional state", which supposedly protected civil rights, instead of arbitraryness of corrupt courts [00:42] activelow i had been whining enought about this recently, how "western" jurisdicial system operates, in compliance with EU [00:42] activelow it's ridiculous, to even consider this type of legal system anymore as anything in compliance with a consitution [00:49] activelow east-german constitution had a benefit over the current german/western(USA/EU) one: right-to-work [00:49] activelow even weimar constitution of 1920s was better in this regard, which phrased this into the constitution, the right-to-work [00:51] activelow and such rights are derived from education and skills, "jeder nach seinen faehigkeiten" (Lenin), "everyone participates according to his/her skills" (haven't got a better translation) [00:53] activelow anyway, this western/EU society is in such severe moral decline, any relevant social norm is void anyway [00:53] *wallacer has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [00:53] *wallacer (~quassel@6bsu33ajs4zs4.irc) has joined #techrights [00:56] activelow nowadays, it's all shallow marketing, particularly when "ecological" or "social" political concerns are presented; they're only concerned with the facade, the communication, instead of the real issues [00:56] activelow maybe that's why some think Nuernberg was a nice city, because they had seen the face thereof, not what it is ● Nov 06 [01:02] DaemonFC https://www.chicagotribune.com/investigations/ct-waukegan-police-problems-met-20151028-story.html [01:02] -altlink_b25/#techrights- Cloudflare: chicagotribune.com | Alternative: https://web.archive.org/web/https://www.chicagotribune.com/investigations/ct-waukegan-police-problems-met-20151028-story.html [01:02] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.chicagotribune.com | Waukegan police have history of wrongful convictions, abuse allegations - Chicago Tribune [01:02] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, ^ [01:02] DaemonFC "No city police agency in Illinois, other than Chicago's, shares responsibility for as many known wrongful convictions as the Waukegan police, who helped send six men to prison some for decades before they were cleared, according to an analysis of data from the National Registry of Exonerations. Waukegan police also have been inundated with abuse allegations, records show, and insurers and the city have paid out $26.1 million in pol [01:02] DaemonFC ice cases since 2006, outspending towns with more police and, in some cases, more violent crime." [01:03] DaemonFC "Records show minorities have suffered most in the former industrial hub of 90,000".... [01:03] DaemonFC Article is only from 6 years ago, and the population is down to below 70,000 according to the Census Bureau. [01:05] DaemonFC I think they were quoting 2010 Census records though. [01:05] DaemonFC Waukegan is losing a net of 368 residents per year. [01:06] DaemonFC But even at that, it was just an estimate from before the latest census. [01:06] DaemonFC Which itself may be botched. [01:07] DaemonFC All anyone does know is that the city is in big trouble and is losing many people. [01:07] DaemonFC "Mayor Wayne Motley" [01:07] DaemonFC Long since gone. [01:07] DaemonFC Waukegan hasn't had a two term mayor in office since 2000. [01:08] DaemonFC It's allowed, but every one of them ends up being so dirty that someone else comes along who is just as dirty, and then they all end up losing their re-election, but nothing improves. [01:08] DaemonFC Even if a mayor wanted to get the police department under control, good luck. [01:08] DaemonFC Police unions.... [01:09] DaemonFC Even in Chicago, look at how much trouble they're able to cause over vaccine refusal, even as they cite other people with fines for ignoring similar mandates. [01:14] activelow at least, nowadays, the full history is written, about the glorious socialist revolution [01:14] activelow in former east-germany this wouldn't have been lectured as official history, militia was sent into villages to confiscate hoarded grain and food, to supply cities of millions [01:15] activelow this is what i fear where germany is heading, once they shut down nuclear and coal power [01:16] activelow and if anything, social spendings is the only remaining appeasement utility remaining, with the morals established after 1990 [01:16] activelow 100 years ago, in germany politicians could agitate for "unitiy of the german people", to work and fight for a better future [01:17] activelow nowadays, the people are gone, there won't be any unity anymore; instead they are calling for "social ecological justice", which won't produce energy german nuclear plants once did [01:18] activelow if anything, this was a remarkable achievement, in east germany, to modernize farming and industry, and people did not die from starvation anymore as they did before, people could heat their flats during winter [01:19] *rianne_ has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [01:19] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [01:20] activelow well, i couldn't afford to heat my flat anymore at all, if it is true that gas prices explode [01:21] activelow too i had to turn of the fridge, because i fear electricity prices will explode next [01:21] activelow problem is, most of the energy costs are fees independent from consumption, so there isn't any possibility remaining for savings [01:22] activelow meaning, i pay for electricity fees and heating supply regardless of how much i am consuming, and the taxation on top of this shall be increased further [01:23] activelow which means they increase taxes for what i am not consuming at all, with the argument this would motivate savings of energy to "safe the planet" [01:23] techrights-ipfs-bot IPFS downstream, 60 mins: avg(k/sec) 33.56 IPFS upstream: avg(k/sec) 7.40 swarm size (avg): 260.40 [01:25] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I was suddenly reminded of Kirby vacuum machine company for some reason. [01:25] DaemonFC THe one where the salesmen rape people and won't leave until people who don't even have any carpet buy a $1,700 vacuum on an installment plan. :) [01:26] *rianne_ (~rianne@62vhapicsw4ds.irc) has joined #techrights [01:27] *liberty_box (~liberty@62vhapicsw4ds.irc) has joined #techrights [01:28] DaemonFC Yeah, I don't run the heat right now. [01:28] DaemonFC It's cold, but not brutally cold yet. [01:28] DaemonFC But it's not because I can't afford it. [01:28] activelow not yet [01:29] activelow february will be [01:29] DaemonFC It's because it's cheaper to just wear my slippers and bathrobe and toss another blanket on the bed than it is to triple my Communist Edison bill. [01:29] DaemonFC Oh yeah, it'll probably hit like $100-ish in February. [01:29] DaemonFC This month, looking closer to about $20. [01:30] activelow for heating or electricity? [01:30] DaemonFC Total. [01:30] DaemonFC Electricity is crazy cheap here. [01:30] DaemonFC I'll be laughing my ass off at those idiots that rushed to switch over to gas because gas was so cheap. [01:31] DaemonFC Nice and toasty in my nuclear power-heated home. [01:31] activelow $80 heating (70Euros), electricity is $50 (30cents/kWh), although electricity costs will decrease because i replaced the phenom2 tower with ARM sbc [01:31] DaemonFC Everything in here is electric. [01:31] activelow problem is, most of the costs are base fees, independent from consumption [01:32] DaemonFC Unless you're running the entire building on a boiler, it makes no sense to use gas and forced air systems in Illinois. [01:32] DaemonFC Our electricity is so cheap that you jsut put in baseboard units. [01:32] activelow energy costs are roughly 3x in germany in comparison to usa [01:32] DaemonFC What does gasoline run? [01:33] activelow per liter? 1.50Euros for diesel [01:33] DaemonFC Like, what's the price you have seen for it recently. [01:33] DaemonFC Is diesel just more common there or something? [01:33] DaemonFC It's very unusual to see a CAR run on diesel here. [01:33] activelow no diesel was what was reported, gasoline is most often ~20cents higher [01:33] DaemonFC The smallest thing you'd run on diesel usually in the US is a pickup truck with a V8 engine. [01:34] activelow usa calculate with gallons, forgot how much liters this was [01:34] activelow anyway, heating costs here is mostly fees, on average it is ~$20monthly without the basic fee calculated per square meter [01:35] DaemonFC $7.42 a gallon for gasoline? [01:35] DaemonFC There would be riots here. [01:35] activelow yes [01:35] activelow what's the current price now in USA? [01:35] DaemonFC People are madder than hell about it being $3.40 a gallon right now. [01:35] activelow electricity is even more extreme, 30cents/kWh [01:35] *psydroid2 has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [01:35] activelow i didn't drive a car in almost 10 years btw. [01:35] DaemonFC It's about 12 cents here after taxes and fees, I think. [01:36] activelow problem is, i cannot cut down with costs anymore, most of it is basic fees calculated per square meter [01:36] DaemonFC People are getting more efficient, but it's not really helping them financially, because every time they do, the price gougers just raise the price of energy. [01:36] activelow dollar cents, euro cents are roughly 10, and electricity prices are 30cents with all taxes included, 3x as much in comparison to usa [01:37] DaemonFC So gasoline is more than double and electricity is triple. [01:37] DaemonFC How do you even get by? [01:37] activelow exactly, in germany they are planning now to tax energy which isn't consumed anymore at all [01:37] activelow basic fees and heating calcualted per square meter independent from consumption [01:37] activelow DaemonFC: no car, no holidays, no family.. nothing [01:38] DaemonFC Yes, Illinois passed a permanent and escalating gasoline tax increase. [01:38] activelow some ARM SBCs to hack is what i got, eating cheapest separator meat, and a tea [01:38] DaemonFC Every year it gets worse automatically. [01:38] DaemonFC Even if wages don't go up and there are no new jobs. [01:38] DaemonFC Lovely, huh? [01:39] DaemonFC DaemonFC: no car, no holidays, no family.. nothing [01:39] activelow but even the waste separator meat isn't "social ecological", because of the poor animals, yes lovely this is. [01:39] DaemonFC It's getting like that here. [01:39] DaemonFC Maybe not THAT bad yet. [01:39] DaemonFC Give them a few more years. [01:39] activelow btw. german minimum wage is lower than that of USA too. [01:39] DaemonFC Lower? [01:39] activelow roughly 9Euros/hour, and higher insurance fees and taxes [01:39] activelow with triple the costs for energy, yes. [01:39] DaemonFC $15 an hour in Illinois, by 2023. [01:40] DaemonFC Effectively, most already pay at least that now. [01:40] DaemonFC Half that in Indiana. [01:40] activelow i do understand it, why trump withdrew from "paris agreement" [01:40] DaemonFC The way it works is if you raise minimum wage, all the landlords and other parasites come out and realize you have money so they arrange for you to have no money again. [01:40] DaemonFC i do understand it, why trump withdrew from "paris agreement" [01:40] DaemonFC Biden put the US back in. [01:40] activelow he didn't [01:40] DaemonFC And, to be honest, we never totally left. [01:41] DaemonFC States and cities committed to it, with over 2/3rds of our national population. [01:41] activelow if energy prices are 1/3 of that in Germany, then Biden did not follow "paris agreement" [01:41] DaemonFC Or your government is hungrier for revenue and more brazen about getting it than mine is. [01:41] activelow strangely, most prominent politicians are, as said, affiliates of "atlantik bridge" and they are following a communication stragy of US think tanks [01:42] activelow in germany [01:43] DaemonFC The US is still shuttering a lot of coal plants. [01:43] DaemonFC The average price of energy is actually going down though. [01:44] DaemonFC Even with this spike in natural gas prices, the long term trend is away from coal, and eventually from gas as well. We're building new nuclear power plants for the first time in decades. [01:44] activelow in germany there is only one way, up. but it isn't energy prices, it is reseller margin surplus and taxation which explode. [01:44] DaemonFC People were really afraid of them for a while thanks largely to shitty Soviet engineering and extreme cost cutting going into the one at Chernobyl. [01:45] DaemonFC The disaster still would have been impossible without a generous amount of operator incompetence though. [01:45] activelow sure, this is what i think, my opinion, those "green" lunatics couldn't construct or maintain nuclear power plants even if they wanted to. [01:45] activelow i think, germany is socially and politically bancrupt, not economically bancrupt, not yet. [01:45] DaemonFC Chernobyl was a perfect storm of bad design, defective and shoddy equipment, and user error. [01:46] DaemonFC The idea we should avoid nuclear power is extreme. [01:46] *m___ has quit (Quit: Leaving.) [01:46] DaemonFC We need to use it efficiently and avoid cutting corners on safety. [01:46] DaemonFC The environmentalists have actually set that back more than anything else. [01:47] DaemonFC The whole Chernobyl disaster was just insane. [01:47] DaemonFC Third shift was qualified to keep the system going under ideal operating conditions. [01:48] activelow yes, and i am afraid, i wouldn't want to see nuclear plants operated by the current population in germany. [01:48] DaemonFC They admitted at the time they were doing the "safety test" that led to the disaster that they didn't get any training on the procedure, and the shift supervisor screamed at them and made them do it anyway. [01:48] activelow it is socially and politically unstable. this alone is reason enough. but those "greens" are not willing to admit it, because it was them who enforced a social agenda which caused the social degeneration and decline. [01:50] activelow typical argument was german nuclear plant designs were safe. maybe, but i think the social and political unstable conditions do not allow for any long-term planning at all. [01:50] DaemonFC The politicians aren't qualified to do anything. [01:50] DaemonFC That's why they're politicians. [01:51] activelow 2022 the last remaining nuclear plants are scheduled for total nuclear shut down in germany. [01:52] activelow and it isn't only the plants aging, it is the engineers and scientists too, with a next generation ahead i wouldn't put any faith into, even if there were any competent remaining, the social and political conditions in germany are inappropriate. [01:52] activelow if iran was denied nuclear power by some criteria, then those applied to germany too. [01:53] activelow apropos, it was siemens who coordinated with iranian nuclear plans, and most german nuclear plants are siemens ones.

[02:18] DaemonFC So they kept it from going into the evidence locker then went to other people who didn't do anything and demanded bribes, or else they'd be charged with drug possession. [02:19] activelow and noone knew anything... as usual. i remember a documentary about chicago, drug capital city of the world. [02:19] activelow doubt police would do what they are accused of now.

[02:34] activelow so, police goes in, and busts, which puts them into a situation of being targetted by cartells, regardless of what they do or don't do. [02:35] activelow and a busted dealer will face charges, of potentially long prison time. so the dealer must lie, due to the nature of things with such cases, so both a dealer and law enforcement got an incentive to arrange with each other, even if the didn't want to. [02:36] activelow and, then, within the middle of the drug capital city police supposedly planted drugs they had gotten out of nowhere? i don't believe this story for a moment.

[04:12] DaemonFC And I live on the line they're trying to mess up. [04:13] DaemonFC UP runs the trains and owns the stations and rail lines. Metra owns the trains themselves. [04:13] DaemonFC But they're operated by UP employees on this line. [04:14] DaemonFC UP wants out of the contract, but the courts aren't letting them out of it quickly enough, so they've resorted to things like putting all of the train stations up for sale from Kenosha to Chicago to force the local governments to buy them all or allow them to be shut down and then they lose their only service on the line. [04:15] DaemonFC They want out of the contract because if Metra has to lease time on the tracks and pay Metra employees to run the trains, UP will make more money than it does now.

[04:44] DaemonFC Older space stations start breaking down and having bizarre malfunctions and atmosphere leakage. [04:44] DaemonFC Mir near the end was a gigantic death trap. [04:45] DaemonFC When Mark Shuttleworth went there, it was on its last leg and the Russians had it flying for about 10 years longer than it should have been already. [04:45] DaemonFC They didn't even manage to deorbit it properly. [04:46] activelow in general, aerospace is slow-pace, NASA graved i8086 parts for their space shuttle; i suspect the reasons why this successfull carrier was terminated isn't fully clarified upon yet. [04:47] activelow space-x went into space, we'll see how long they will keep up. [04:48] activelow simply do not know, x.25 is old too... maybe phased out completely nowadays, after almost 50years of reliable operation. in any case spare parts aren't available anymore i read. [04:49] activelow not saying anything is better or worse; in any case the internet doesn't exist for that long yet either, and it is getting old too, with some weird symptoms showing up all over the place. [04:51] activelow the entire GPS stuff, hell, i was surprised to see those devices expose serial console, otherwise nothing known about the internals. we'll see how long this will last. [04:52] activelow russians pushed their glonass into space, and galileo was late several years. don't know anything, which decisions were made. [04:54] activelow IBM may keep it as their "IP", don't care. it's not the success story told about some mars rover, it's the chaos left behind down on the ground, and the friction and costs. [04:55] activelow who knows, nuclear shutdown scheduled for in germany 2020, as far as i could tell this falls into the exact same timeline General Electric had to worry about their PDP-11 code, now run inside emulators? or what are they doing? don't know.

[05:07] activelow btw., someone had assigned me a weird social security number at employment agency "0xxA1239456"... wtf. did they make me a social lab rat experiment too? [05:09] activelow and given this was arranged for at below minimum wage, this didn't serve their "social ecological justice" yet. [05:09] activelow angry? go see a psychiatrist and be prepared for de-nazification. [05:11] activelow i had absolutely zero issues with a "person of color" in german telecom headquarter taking responsibility for trainees. didn't know at that time yet what "intercultural social sensitivity training" was supposed to be. [05:11] activelow however, how did he get this job there? after having studied telco engineering or some social blather nonsense? [05:14] activelow politics fiddling into this, below them a telco engineer being an underling because of whatever deficiency? [05:15] activelow too, i think, in germany, the christian churches are hijacked vice versa together with politics and the corrupt media cartell of theirs. [05:16] activelow after 1990, any ideological lunacy interfering was the "red socks" sniffing, anyone supposedly being a former "socialist" or spie or whatever. [05:17] activelow german agencies were desperate, in fear of "red army terror" after they dismantled entire east-german industry and science, to hijack all leading positions at univerities there. [05:17] activelow then come along some feminists, well "east germans are treated like women"... no they aren't. [05:18] activelow women aren't a minority, east german young men are, if this is dissected further by higher education even less. [05:18] activelow why bother with them? here is another "minor" detail, one of those "NSU" terrorists was the son of a physics professor of an east-german univeristy...

[05:28] activelow being a minority in my own country doesn't make me a criminal, i have rights. [05:30] activelow churches in germany lost millions of members. that's another details. [05:31] activelow and with my memories of post 1990, not in my wildest dreams would i ever consider to associate with such a corrupt cartell. [05:32] activelow maybe the winners of 1990 had forgotten the friction of this time, i had not forotten. none of the current political establishment would came anywhere close to being not a constitutional enemy and outright hostile towards my existence. [05:32] activelow why bother? it's just one failed telco engineering carreer. [05:37] activelow thing is, some imaginary "lone wolf" right-wingers don't pose any relevant threat in germany, it's the polit establishment themselves who breed horror. [05:40] activelow instead, they produce the type of bullshit agitation on facebook themselves, certainly not me. didn't post anything there once, nothing, no twitter, nothing. dead silence. [05:41] activelow why are they complaining about mysogonism on facebook? i never did post anything at all. nothing. it is only them with their "social ecological justice" utopia spouting cracy nonsense. [05:42] activelow it's men's fault women aren't employed as telco engineer? hell, i did leave telekom, any woman willing to take my place there may have it, didn't say anything. [05:44] activelow anyway, since when i posted a test onto github and sent this to human resource offices: nothing, not a single response in two years, nothing. [05:45] activelow because of what? i am nazi? having studied electronics and maths and computer stuff is nazi or racist? salary required to work and live doesn't meet their criteria of "social ecological justice"? [05:47] activelow and those "greens", they now postpone the coalition talk schedule with their new associate, the "liberals". [05:49] activelow German Telekom and foreign affairs was in the hands of "liberals", historically, in germany, diplomacy and international telko. [05:55] activelow the last real job interview i had was in german finance ministry in Bonn. was surprised i was invited, not interested to relocate there, right into the hands of this criminal gang, Bonn, former capital city of germany. [05:55] activelow east-germans almost always are portrayed as dumb-fucks on tv. if need be it's nazi, racist, mysogonist, social parasite sucking western cash, unproductive, then privileged white male, homophobe... listened to this for three decades now. [05:56] activelow i would rather die than ever reaching out to any of this again. [05:56] activelow they looted and plundered more than a decade of salary of mine. [05:57] activelow close nearby Bonn, it is Cologne, where german aerospace is centered. [05:58] activelow they are not afraid of me, the are afraid because they know what they did, since 1990. they know exactly what's awaiting them, regardless of what i do or don't. because this has nothing to do with me. [05:59] activelow those few smirking feminist multi cultural visages on tv celebrating their victory, they shall have it. nuclear plants shut down 2022. they probably prepared their first class ticket already, to settle some place else. ● Nov 06 [06:00] *m___ (~Adium@sskwereip3e42.irc) has joined #techrights [06:17] *m___ has quit (Quit: Leaving.) [06:18] activelow it is remarkable, politics aggressively refueled the "right wing extremist" agitation in recent years, although there was less shooting fatalities in a decade in germany than there had been during a single weekend in chicago, rough estimate. [06:19] activelow doesn't mean the incidents were irelevant, and this must be talked about, but it seems more like they intentionally seek to fuel hatred by this, instead of social peace. [06:20] activelow and if social peace was threatened in germany, then it wasn't nazis at fault, because there are simply rarely any who could. [06:20] activelow right-wing has almost zero media coverage, 99% is extremist left incitement against germans only, a minority which there are rarely any remaining in west german cities anymore. [06:22] activelow most of the right-wing fringe as fully subverted by agent-provocateurs and government spies, nonetheless this right-wing is portrayed as "most severe threat". [06:24] activelow since east-germans like me were supposedly affiliated, i am not and there aren't rarely any, who is it then?

[06:29] activelow they are talking as if a glorious future was ahead, as soon as all those privileged were gone, however this isn't any future prospect, they succeeded with this at least a decade ago already. [06:31] activelow same with carbon tax or any other political plan for the future, the carbon tax was introduced already, twenty years ago, in germany. yet they talk as if this was any future plan to "safe the planet" [06:32] activelow "the great replacement" isn't any future anymore, it was implemented already, this political type of mindset is in charge in west german for many decades, after 1945 denazification, 1968 student revolts, that's at least 50 years of "success" story already. [06:33] activelow it's only a minor coincidence not all of the older generation was gone, after 1990 some germans remained in eastern parts, playing old card games, speaking an old dialect, none of which is a crime or "nazi" [06:36] activelow certainly it was a historical scale error, to label east-germans unproductive western cash sucking parasites and nazis, and to take down the entire engineering and science there [06:36] activelow i suspect, in line with the neo-marxist idea a society can arbitrarily be reshaped, a long tradition of culture and arts may simply be transplanted elsewhere, this didn't succeed at the scale they hoped for, although they looted all scientific libraries [06:37] activelow twice, at least, 1945 and 1990 again. [06:38] activelow and even if, all this "intellectual property" is useless, if no scientists remain to study the books, and instead practice "gender studies" and "social constructivism" [06:39] activelow at the highest level of telco engineering and electronics, it is several degrees held in germany: diploma, a phd, and professor [06:39] activelow and this generation, east and west, is retiring. [06:41] activelow east-german unproductive western cash suckign nazi dumb fuck, this is what's ringing in my ears... privileged white male, "germany peace of shit die".. this is *official* german political ideological doctrine [06:41] activelow which is installed as head of parliament even, high ranking positions dictating state-owned corporations [06:47] *CrystalMath has quit (Quit: Leaving) ● Nov 06 [07:04] *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)

[08:01] activelow got no explanation yet, how they pay 200 and resell for 2000 with additional energy and eco tax on top [08:03] activelow almost always it is russians accused of utilising gas pipelines for politics, although in germany it is "social democrats" and well, some former east-german left, who control this [08:04] schestowitz-TR energy got expensive everywhere [08:04] activelow they plan to introduce more cost-free kindergardens, male child caretakers, and "social justice" there; this could explain some of the excess surplus. [08:04] schestowitz-TR which is strange to me as last year oil could barely be sold at all [08:04] schestowitz-TR lack of demand, grounded plans, less production [08:04] activelow it isn't the energy prices, it is the reseller prices and taxation which exploded [08:04] schestowitz-TR so now we use up less energy and yet the price goes UP? [08:05] activelow sure, some of the gas/energy is routed elsewhere, such as china maybe, or shipped via LNG terminals into usa [08:06] activelow but this doesn't explain the surplus margin of 90% plus additional taxation on top [08:06] activelow and it isn't the russians according to putin, who deliver bound by long-term contracts [08:07] activelow northstream2 isn't terminated yet, and it was planned to be in mecklenburg vorpommern [08:08] activelow where this new "red-red" feminist coalition announced their victory, without the termination finished by russia [08:10] *rianne_ (~rianne@62vhapicsw4ds.irc) has joined #techrights [08:10] *liberty_box (~liberty@62vhapicsw4ds.irc) has joined #techrights [08:11] activelow in any case, i won't participate in this anymore [08:15] schestowitz [08:15] schestowitz x https://www.pcworld.com/article/547267/windows-11-doesnt-automatically-protect-you-from-all-threats-heres-how-to-stay-safe.html [08:15] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Windows 11 doesnt automatically protect you from all threats.

[10:49] DaemonFC What's going on here is the Democrats are enacting an agenda that is so unpopular that they managed to blow it in a state that Biden carred by 10 points just last year. [10:51] DaemonFC For now, they could stop the Republicans from doing too much by hurrying up and approving the maps the redistricting commission makes if they don't think they'll get a more favorable one before their terms expire, passing all sorts of legislation very quickly to strip the incoming governor of power (like the Republicans did in Wisconsin before they had to hand it over), and refusing to act on any of the Republican bills in the state Senate. [10:51] DaemonFC But after 2023, it's anyone's guess. [10:52] DaemonFC The job of the opposing party is to stall out the majority's agenda and force them to go back to the voters and not be able to say they got much of anything done. [10:52] DaemonFC But the Democrats don't make a very good opposing party. [10:53] DaemonFC In fact, they won't do any of this while there's still time, and when the government flips, they'll pass most of the stuff the Republicans want. [10:53] DaemonFC When the shoe is on the other foot, the Republicans are willing to do enormous damage to the state or even the country to force compromises. [10:54] DaemonFC The result is that after 2-3 weeks of a government shutdown, there's a new budget and it does all sorts of things the Republicans want even if there's not many of them. [10:55] DaemonFC The Democrats make the worst opposition party ever. [10:55] DaemonFC They gave Bush his wars, they gave him his very corrupt Medicare Part D. [10:55] DaemonFC They gave Trump a bunch of judges even though they could have put up more of a fight. [10:55] DaemonFC I mean, it's horrible. [10:56] DaemonFC There's a reason they always lose in the first midterms, very badly. [10:57] DaemonFC It's because they bicker and don't do big things and let the other side control the narrative even if they manage to get something done.

[11:31] DaemonFC The Catholic church stopped her pension from growing years before they said it would. [11:31] DaemonFC Every month she doesn't take it is a month they get to keep it. [11:31] DaemonFC At this point she's donating a sizeable chunk of her pay right back to them by not quitting and taking the pension. [11:31] DaemonFC There is no way in hell I would do that if I was her. [11:32] DaemonFC She's a US citizen. She could have just taken her pension check, said it was her entire income, and signed up for food stamps and Obamacare to go with it for a couple years.

[11:41] DaemonFC There was an episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine where O'Brien was pontificating that "union men" were heroes for standing up to coal companies way back when. Even dying for it. [11:41] schestowitz-TR copyright in which context? [11:41] DaemonFC I'm sure that the "Screen Actors Guild" liked this, even though they're just actors. [11:42] DaemonFC They're not out there mining coal or anything. [11:42] DaemonFC copyright in which context? [11:42] DaemonFC Well, it's a monopoly. We say we're against those, but we dole them out all the time. [11:43] DaemonFC Then people become unproductive because they can jsut sit there anf get royalties on what they've done in the past. [11:43] DaemonFC Then they die and people who had absolutely nothing to do with it keep getting money from the copyrights. [11:44] DaemonFC I wonder how much it _really_ costs to produce a computer game. [11:45] DaemonFC How much revenue is really lost to piracy vs. people that will gladly play the game for free but would just do without if it was impossible to crack the DRM. [11:46] DaemonFC It's hard to imagine a figure that's reasonable, so copyright owners always go with the worst thing it could possibly be. [11:46] DaemonFC And that's where corn farming jobs are lost if you don't go to the movies. [11:47] DaemonFC Movies used to be considered something cheap to do if you were bored that day. [11:47] DaemonFC They lured people in during the Depression because it was so cheap to go to the movies. [11:47] DaemonFC Like a few cents for a ticket and a few more cents for popcorn. [11:47] DaemonFC These days, they want $15 a ticket unless it's Tuesday. [11:48] DaemonFC Then you get in there and it's almost $30 for a popcorn and two drinks. [11:48] DaemonFC So going to a movie with your spouse is not cheap thrills unles you go on Tuesday and don't buy anything at the concession stand. [11:48] DaemonFC it's a $60 disaster.

[11:50] DaemonFC Then you have a bunch of rowdy kids and people next to you smoking a joint in the theater. [11:50] DaemonFC It's illegal. THey don't care. [11:50] DaemonFC It's Illinois. [11:51] DaemonFC Smoking in a theater gets the cops called on you in Indiana, where there is law enforcement. [11:51] DaemonFC Not out here in no man's land where it's criminal gangs and cops enforcing fake laws created by SJWs against white people, only. [11:52] DaemonFC But it pisses me off. [11:52] DaemonFC Because you can't go to the movies, right? [11:52] schestowitz-TR the movies come to you [11:52] schestowitz-TR no need to go to them [11:52] DaemonFC Either you pay a lot of money to avoid those idiots because they don't have money and that's why they're there smoking a joint on $5 Tuesday. [11:52] schestowitz-TR you can get a tablet for 50 pounds [11:52] DaemonFC Or you sit next to them on Tuesday. [11:52] schestowitz-TR and then you play back video on it [11:52] schestowitz-TR that's the same as $60 [11:52] DaemonFC Yeah, that's usually what I do now. [11:53] DaemonFC That mall in Gurnee is struggling, but they still do better than most. [11:53] DaemonFC They still actually have anchor tenants. [11:53] DaemonFC The mall in Marion, Indiana is now mostly abandoned. [11:54] DaemonFC They walled it off and keep it open for Applebee's and a department store that doesn't lead out into the mall anymore. [11:54] DaemonFC 90% of it just sits there falling apart. [11:55] DaemonFC When I was a kid, it was a nice mall. [11:55] DaemonFC It had everything you could want. A nice book store, an arcade, a Penney's, a Sears, Hill's Department Store (an Indiana thing).... [11:55] DaemonFC A movie theater... [11:56] DaemonFC Then Walmart came in and the town started dying off. [11:56] DaemonFC Now it's basically little Chicago. [11:56] DaemonFC A very safe neighborhood where I used to go to school...

[12:02] DaemonFC Pay people off to make them shut up and keep voting for them. [12:05] DaemonFC The reason the right has been so successful politically despite also delivering nothing, is they pretend to listen, and care, and talk to you as if they want to solve your problems. [12:05] DaemonFC The Democrats are a bunch of cheese and wine snobs that rub it in your face that you're a trash person when you say you just want a life with some dignity, please.

[12:30] DaemonFC And if they let him out of the hole, next time he'll be drinking his meals through a straw. [12:31] DaemonFC This should happen to our governor too.

[21:24] DaemonFC While people are rummaging around in trash bins looking for half-eaten food in the Democratic People's Republic of Chicago. [21:25] DaemonFC It's effectively a city-state, so if people wonder why it's so much worse than the rest of Illinois, that's why. [21:26] DaemonFC The state delegates its authority down to Chicago under a special home rule allowance, so they get to do almost anything they want, even if it's normally illegal under state law. [21:26] DaemonFC And that would be why gasoline is almost $5 a gallon in the city, while it's opnly $3.40 elsewhere. [21:26] DaemonFC Among other horrors. [21:27] DaemonFC My parents are panicking that gas is almost $7.50 in parts of California and about $5 in Chicago. [21:27] DaemonFC That's not due to oil prices. It's due to Democrats and their neverending list of taxes, which will all improve your life immediately, you know. [21:28] DaemonFC They need your money so that they can commission murals of a 20-time felon then send other people out by mistake on community service to paint over them with a nice military gray.

[21:31] DaemonFC And she's all like (typical), "Well, I don't know what that means, but he didn't expect anything from someone else.". [21:32] DaemonFC Doesn't know what the New Deal is. [21:32] DaemonFC Wants "her" Social Security money. [21:33] DaemonFC Social Security is a ponzi scheme.

[21:35] DaemonFC Yes, you can use COPR or PPA to build things for Fedora or Ubuntu and host them, but it costs you your freedom. [21:35] DaemonFC They can come cancel you easily now and point to a Code of Conduct. [21:35] DaemonFC I wonder if this is why so many repos for Debian are on OpenSUSE Build Service. [21:35] DaemonFC Anyone? [21:36] DaemonFC Or is it just that Debian doesn't want people from outside building software to run on Debian? [21:36] DaemonFC If you're very careful and only do it for a program here or there that doesn't start stomping stuff from the operating system, then it's safe.

[21:51] DaemonFC Now crime is up 400%. [21:51] DaemonFC The city went from a reasonably nice place (most of it anyway) to Soylent Green is people in the last two years. [21:52] DaemonFC And it's pretty much all Lightfoot and Foxx that did it. [21:54] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I was talking with mom about this. She calls Lori Lightfoot "Beetlejuice". [21:54] DaemonFC She asked what I thought of her. I said I thought she was a fucking idiot. She asked what I thought of the last mayor. I said, "Rahm Emanuel? Well, he was a crook, but they all are. At least he had a brain.". [21:55] DaemonFC Chicago now is like, as vicious as New Orleans. [21:55] DaemonFC I remember after hurricane Katrina, Mayor Nagin came out there and said he wanted New Orleans to "always be a chocolate city".
