[14:14] *AVRS has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [14:15] DaemonFC[m] Healthcare is so bad in this country. It's perverse. People on Medicaid and deadbeats use the ER for everything while people who pay lots of money for insurance have $6,000 deductibles. [14:16] DaemonFC[m] Quit letting people on Medicaid use the ER for free and maybe the ER won't be so expensive. [14:17] *AVRS (~AVRS@wikimedia/AVRS) has joined #techrights [14:17] DaemonFC[m] Indiana's expanded Medicaid works differently. If it's a real emergency, no charge. If you stubbed your toe, you pay $100. $100 is still far too little for this, but it's $100 more than Medicaid in Illinois would charge them, so they go piling into the ER to use it as their doctor. [14:18] DaemonFC[m] Meanwhile, Mandy has insurance that costs $446 a month and if he goes to the ER, we're potentially looking at an $8,600 bill. [14:19] DaemonFC[m] Because that's the maximum annual out-of-pocket for this plan. So the ER bill probably trips the circuit breaker for the entire year, which is nice. It would be better if that wasn't almost a third of his annual pay. [14:20] DaemonFC[m] Common Dreams wants Medicare For All, but Biden doesn't. He just wants to lower the eligibility age to 50. [14:20] DaemonFC[m] The insurance companies won't fight it because it gets more people that cost more than they pay off their hands and it makes the taxpayers foot the bill for those people as well. [14:21] DaemonFC[m] Biden likes it because it would get him a bunch of voters that he paid off with our money. [14:22] DaemonFC[m] We get royally fucked on both sides. People 18-49 would still have to pay for their plans, and more taxes because Medicare is paid for by taxing workers. [14:23] DaemonFC[m] The taxes would go up, and it would further burden people who are trying to pay for their own premiums, and it would cause many of them to have to drop their health insurance to try to cover the new Medicare taxes. [14:24] DaemonFC[m] There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch (TANSTAAFL), but there is such a thing as politicians buying votes with other people's money. [14:25] DaemonFC[m] Or their own money. See Illinois. "We taxed you to keep your electricity affordable. Don't thank us all at once! Of course, not all of that went to keeping your bill down. A lot of it went right back to your state legislators and Mike Madigan is now Public Official A, but you'll read more about that after he dies of old age.".

Some fake pancake syrup that kills black people with diabetes removed a "racist" picture of a black woman from the bottle. Mission Accomplished.

[18:01] mjg59 It doesn't, which is why the move to Rust was made extremely deliberately [18:02] mjg59 The people making the transition have literally been working on this for years [18:02] MinceR apparently with microshit suits at the helm, everything is "security", except for actual security [18:02] XRevan86 They could've achieved similiar results with C++, but RAII in C++ is not as easy to work with.

[18:04] MinceR XRevan86: they could have contributed to making rust mature [18:04] MinceR and free [18:04] mjg59 There's plenty of rust code in production [18:04] XRevan86 or no required manual memory control [18:04] MinceR XRevan86: funny, i seem to remember reading an article about how a crypto library actually needs explicit control of where data is stored for security [18:04] MinceR so your sensitive keys and nonces don't stick around once they shouldn't [18:04] MinceR but i guess that, too, was "obsolete" [18:05] XRevan86 MinceR: Rust is no a garbage collection kind of language eitehr. [18:05] XRevan86 either [18:05] MinceR mjg59: there's plenty of unstable, insecure code in production. your point? [18:05] XRevan86 MinceR: RAII is optimal for security needs.

The lady at CVS says they aren't verifying that.

[18:08] MinceR yes, like failfox [18:08] DaemonFC[m] I don't want to be one of those people that jumps the line to save themselves when there are people more at risk, even though I'm sure that's what someone like Mandy's sister would do.

[18:11] MinceR also, insisting on using hardware with backdoors in it (like Intel Management Engine) is not secure [18:12] MinceR XRevan86: i've only seen the news about it being handed over to some other evil entity, not that they changed their policies to something compatible with free software [18:12] XRevan86 MinceR: They haven't released a trademark policy yet. [18:12] XRevan86 at least not to my knowledge [18:12] mjg59 So don't use Intel [18:12] MinceR XRevan86: i'm sure that will hold up on court [18:12] mjg59 Rust supports plenty of other available CPU architectures [18:13] MinceR mjg59: afaik PSP is little different [18:13] MinceR only even less known [18:13] XRevan86 MinceR: You're planning on going into court with them this month?

[18:13] MinceR XRevan86: i suspect the old policy stays in effect until they come up with a new one [18:14] MinceR mjg59: i can? [18:14] mjg59 Yes [18:14] mjg59 TrustZone is equivalent to SMM, not to ME [18:14] MinceR how will i produce the SoC? how will i make the multilayer PCB for it? [18:14] mjg59 You don't need to [18:14] mjg59 Just don't have your bootloader put anything in TrustZone [18:15] XRevan86 MinceR: You're faulting them for something that they will probably change very soon regardless. [18:15] MinceR XRevan86: you do make it sound an awful lot like the cryptography package people moved way too soon [18:16] XRevan86 And I doubt that this media guide actually holds this very moment, it has no legal authority. [18:16] mjg59 ME is different, because (a) it's a separate processor, whereas TrustZone is just a different mode on the same processor, and (b) you need the ME to be up to boot the main CPU [18:16] XRevan86 "This document is not an official statement of Mozilla trademark policy, but serves to clarify Mozillas trademark policy as it relates to Rust." [18:16] MinceR does it really, though? [18:17] MinceR because the more we look at it the less clear it actually becomes [18:17] XRevan86 since the Mozillas trademark policy no longer relates to Rust, this document is a literal nothing [18:18] XRevan86 "the cryptography package people moved way too soon" can't argue with that [18:18] MinceR which means that they probably can't be relied upon anyway [18:19] MinceR as for the policy, this means that it's in a similar situation as if it had no license [18:19] MinceR you'll use rust somehow and they'll hit you with a lawsuit [18:21] XRevan86 Russia will pay a compensation to Navalny per the ECHR ruling for detaining him during a peaceful rally in 2012.

[19:44] DaemonFC[m] All of the CVS locations that are accepting appointments are places that are generally easy for white people to drive to, but are well off the path for public transit. [19:46] MinceR sounds like the public transit system is broken [19:46] MinceR just like in budapest [19:46] DaemonFC[m] MinceR: Yeah, downstate doesn't have much in the way of public transit and most of the people living there are white. [19:47] DaemonFC[m] Also, more white people have cars than black people, so they can drive down there and get a shot even if it is three hours each way. [19:47] MinceR getting shot is now a goal? :> [19:47] DaemonFC[m] I think that the state is putting up barriers to non-whites getting access to the vaccine by sending most of the doses to places in Illinois that nobody has ever heard of.

It will actually take until November of 2022. ● Feb 11 [20:00] MinceR the gypsy king said they could vaccinate everyone in the country on a weekend [20:02] DaemonFC[m] Kryten to Rimmer voice: An excellent plan sir, with only two small problems. 1: We don't have any vaccines. And 2: We don't have any vaccines. Now, that may sound like I've stated that one twice, but it was such an obvious deficiency that I thought it was worth repeating. [20:02] DaemonFC[m] :) [20:02] MinceR :> [20:02] MinceR that's not the only small problem with the plan [20:03] DaemonFC[m] No, of course not. [20:03] DaemonFC[m] The logistics are impossible. [20:03] DaemonFC[m] A large number of people would refuse. [20:03] DaemonFC[m] You have shortages of other supplies as well. [20:03] DaemonFC[m] Same stuff we're dealing with here. [20:04] DaemonFC[m] So far, the shortages are so bad that the number of people who would refuse is an academic problem at the moment. [20:04] MinceR we also have a shortage of medical professionals, afaik [20:04] MinceR as a result of spending decades refusing to pay them properly [20:04] DaemonFC[m] That was what I was going to say. [20:04] DaemonFC[m] You don't want to pay them so they get a medical license and end up in Chicago. [20:05] MinceR building stadia, stealing narrow-gauge railways and buying shitty overpriced german cars were all much more important allocations of taxpayer money [20:05] DaemonFC[m] Worse than Medicaid, I'd imagine. [20:05] DaemonFC[m] You have free health insurance, wherever you can manage to use it! [20:05] MinceR oh, and buying chicken wire fence for a small section of the border [20:06] DaemonFC[m] MinceR: Trump did the people of Mexico a favor, really. [20:06] MinceR how? [20:06] DaemonFC[m] They're cutting the border "wall" into pieces and loading it into trucks. Scrap steal can bring in a good day's earnings, my friend. [20:06] DaemonFC[m] B-) [20:06] DaemonFC[m] *steel [20:07] DaemonFC[m] stealing steel [20:07] DaemonFC[m] blah [20:08] DaemonFC[m] Anyway, they cut through it with cheap saws and haul it away and the part you don't hear about it how it costs us a fortune to replace that section with more that's welded into place as a patch, that they'll steal again. [20:09] MinceR lol [20:12] DaemonFC[m] MinceR: Why listen to those pesky scientists yammer on about soil erosion. [20:12] DaemonFC[m] BORING..... [20:12] MinceR (cat) (no audio) https://i.imgur.com/9kI0nox.mp4 [20:12] DaemonFC[m] Just build it. It'll fall over in a few years but right now you can totally pwn the libtards on Facebook. [20:13] MinceR twitler has his own alternative "science" anyway [20:13] MinceR so do the other "conservatives" [20:14] DaemonFC[m] The wall that the We Build The Wall people built hasn't collapsed yet, but it has started causing void collapses. [20:14] DaemonFC[m] And there are already places you can just crawl under it. [20:15] DaemonFC[m] On his way out, Trump pardoned Steve Bannon, but not Brian Kolfage. [20:15] DaemonFC[m] So this darling hero of the far right is still going to prison after they paraded him around as a triple amputee war veteran who loves his country. [20:17] DaemonFC[m] I think they actually only built like 7-8 miles of wall, and it's in pieces in different states. [20:17] DaemonFC[m] I mean, it's not like any mere human could walk 3 miles around a segment. [20:18] DaemonFC[m] MinceR: It wasn't designed to have a practical function. It was so they could take pictures for Facebook and cheat people out of more money. [20:19] DaemonFC[m] Also, the "500 miles" that Trump claimed "he" built, was actually 454 miles, and 411 miles of that was replacing an existing barrier. [20:19] DaemonFC[m] So it was removing an old fence and putting in a new fence, and then counting that part as if nothing was there to begin with. [20:20] DaemonFC[m] Historically, the US has been pretty cheap with the fencing between the US and Mexico. [20:20] DaemonFC[m] A lot of it is/was Vietnam War era helicopter landing pads. [20:21] DaemonFC[m] They had a bunch in surplus and so they just dug into the ground and shoved them in.

[20:35] MinceR :> [20:37] MinceR https://files.explosm.net/comics/Matt/holding-your-breath-isnt-fucking-magic.png ( https://explosm.net/comics/789/ ) [20:37] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Cyanide & Happiness (Explosm.net) [20:53] *gde33 has quit (Quit: KVIrc 5.0.0 Aria http://www.kvirc.net/) [20:54] *ianthius (~ianthius@unaffiliated/ianthius) has joined #techrights [20:57] *ianthius (~ianthius@unaffiliated/ianthius) has left #techrights ● Feb 11 [21:00] MinceR https://i.imgur.com/kgLdkrE.jpeg [21:02] *aindilis has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [21:04] jaggz DaemonFC[m], it might also turn into diamond [21:06] XRevan86 MinceR: Predictable. [21:18] DaemonFC[m] One of the neighbors is smoking something awful. Russian cigarettes maybe. [21:19] DaemonFC[m] Gets into my bathroom and lingers. I have to keep the door closed. [21:19] XRevan86 Donskoy tabak? :) [21:21] DaemonFC[m] The Democrats passed a law requiring cigarette smokers to pay 50% more for health insurance. [21:21] DaemonFC[m] As if anyone who is still smoking is worried about health insurance. They'll buy the cigarettes, no health insurance. [21:22] XRevan86 Donskoy Tabak and Belomor are so infamous even I, a non-smoker, know about them. [21:25] XRevan86 But surely export would affect the price tag. Who would buy this stuff abroad? [21:29] DaemonFC[m] It was just a joke. There's plenty of off brand cigarettes here that are surely just as nasty. [21:30] XRevan86 Ah, I couldn't tell, as that joke is too real :) [21:30] DaemonFC[m] Communists always know how to make a particularly nasty cigarette. I found a pack of cigarettes while I was unloading a shipping container from China. [21:30] DaemonFC[m] "Santa" it said. [21:31] XRevan86 Holy cow, Donskoy Tabak is owned by Japan Tobacco [21:31] DaemonFC[m] Then I unloaded a few more rows, and I found the guy's lighter, which played music when you had the button pressed down. [21:31] DaemonFC[m] Then I unloaded another row and found his wallet. [21:31] XRevan86 since 2018 [21:31] DaemonFC[m] I told the guy I was working with, "You think we'd better stop? Another row or two and we might find some dead Chinese guy in here.". [21:32] DaemonFC[m] It was during the SARS outbreak. [21:32] DaemonFC[m] So I just had to say "SARS". [21:33] DaemonFC[m] The SARS outbreak had the US news channels on it all the time like it would be in the US and people would be dropping dead soon. [21:33] DaemonFC[m] Then in the run up to COVID, pretty much nothing. [21:33] DaemonFC[m] "Oh there's this odd thing in China, but it's in China so don't worry." [21:34] DaemonFC[m] Every time the media panics it's nothing, they pretty much kept quiet on COVID until it was here and they were digging mass graves. [21:35] DaemonFC[m] XRevan86: I was laughing pretty hard though when it was in Iran and the Iranian health minister was saying don't worry and then he got it and gave it to a bunch of other government officials. [21:35] DaemonFC[m] Then the same thing happened in the White House with Trump and I laughed even harder. [21:36] DaemonFC[m] They were giving Trump pretty much anything they thought would have any effect on it at all. [21:36] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: Pieskov used a protective amulet [21:37] DaemonFC[m] Meanwhile, he's in the hospital, looking more orange than usual, signing blank pieces of paper. [21:37] XRevan86 through mockery and peer pressure he got it off, he says he regrets that as soonafter he got COVID-19 [21:38] XRevan86 https://meduza.io/en/feature/2020/04/10/the-kremlin-s-virus-blocker that [21:38] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-meduza.io | NO TITLE [21:38] XRevan86 I don't know if this crap had any traction outside of Russia [21:38] XRevan86 but it is telling about the mental development of one particular person [21:40] DaemonFC[m] Oh yes, the famous Coronavirus-neutralizing amulet. I think that's the next Indiana Jones movie. Hitler again. [21:41] DaemonFC[m] Yet another thing that mom doesn't acknowledge happened. [21:42] DaemonFC[m] The CDC was telling people not to drink bleach and lysol after Trump went on TV and asked if they were looking into injecting it into people's lungs. [21:42] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: At least Trump didn't try it on himself [21:42] DaemonFC[m] Unfortunately. [21:43] XRevan86 This guy thinks that having a cloud of chlorine gas around one's head will protect him from viruses. [21:43] DaemonFC[m] He was apparently popping hydroxychloroquine as a prophylactic. [21:43] DaemonFC[m] Again, mom votes for him and then says "I'm not getting the vaccine. Who knows what's in it?". [21:53] XRevan86 DaemonFC[m]: If I have to guess, it's a protein with some SARS-CoV-2 spike RNA. [21:53] XRevan86 that's what in it [21:59] DaemonFC[m] Mandy will be getting the Pfizer one tomorrow. ● Feb 11 [22:00] DaemonFC[m] The news said that it seems to be effective against the South Africa variant, but who knows.

[22:36] superkuh Reject alcohol, embrace nitric oxide. [22:36] Old_Man I remember hearing about him asking if something that *acted* like that could be discovered, but after that, Biden falsely accused Trump of telling people to drink bleach, and he got debunked by it. [22:36] superkuh Seriously, there's multiple clinical trials going now for nitric oxide nasal sprays to disinfect the upper respiratory pathways and prevent infection from establishing. In UK and USA. [22:37] Old_Man So now the only people who belive that Trump told people to drink bleach are Democrat brainwashing-cult participants who missed the tiny little apology published at the bottom of page 14 in small print.
