[03:33] DaemonFC So if you lived long enough, by some miracle, you might get better medicine in the mid to late 90s. [03:34] DaemonFC When it was only AZT, it was still a terminal disease. [03:34] DaemonFC It was like Stage 4 cancer and buying yourself like 3-4 years with chemotherapy. [03:36] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], Now it costs you like a year or two if you live into old age. [03:36] DaemonFC So we're talking not much at this point. A bus could hit you tomorrow type stuff. [03:37] DaemonFC But there's the financial aspect. [03:37] DaemonFC There's a lot of prejudice and stigma left. People badly understand what being in a relationship with someone who has it under control is actually like. [03:37] DaemonFC You can get married, you can have kids with them. [03:38] DaemonFC It's not an irresponsible thing to have kids with someone who has HIV and is in viral suppression. [03:38] DaemonFC If it cannot be detected in a lab test, then they're not infectious. [03:39] DaemonFC So it's a lingering misunderstanding. [03:39] DaemonFC Mostly because a lot of people still remember how horrific it once was without any real treatments available. [03:39] DaemonFC A diagnosis followed by a funeral a few years later. [03:39] mjg59_ 03:21 < DaemonFC> Matthew Garrett says that Twitter's spam folder nabbed about 10 messages offering him jobs.

[03:40] DaemonFC Don't you need that cash so you can go on for another year? :) [03:41] mjg59_ I don't think you understand the link between stock price and cash on hand especially well [03:41] DaemonFC I know your company is burning through cash and publicly admitted it doesn't know if it can make it much into 2024. [03:41] DaemonFC And that each year, it loses more money than the previous year. [03:41] DaemonFC And that your EPS is laughably negative. [03:41] mjg59_ Sure. It turns out that it costs money to develop a product. [03:42] DaemonFC It looks like bankruptcy before having a product is the more likely result of this. [03:42] DaemonFC You don't need to be an accountant to see failing dotcom company all over again. [03:42] mjg59_ It's not impossible, but it's honestly surprising that there are any earnings at all given there's no product yet [03:43] mjg59_ How do you think any startups work? [03:43] DaemonFC Most fail. [03:43] DaemonFC That's why there's a small cap stock index. [03:44] DaemonFC There's a lot of crap in there and you need to figure out the 1 good one in the 100 cat turds. [03:45] DaemonFC I don't invest in small cap stocks, ever, because the retirement account is there to make money and they aren't making money, and following an index of them is insane. [03:45] schestowitz[TR] revenue!= earnings [03:45] DaemonFC I follow the S&P 500. [03:45] schestowitz[TR] youtube has revenue [03:45] schestowitz[TR] afaik, no earnings [03:46] schestowitz[TR] so they bombard with more and more ads [03:46] DaemonFC Even at that scale, some fail.

[03:50] bagira depends on the team though. he might be able to keep people motivated for a couple years if he hires people who ideologically align with him (hard left washington state ethos) [03:50] DaemonFC Ideally, you'll buy a lot at a neutral or undervalued level and sell them for more later on.

[15:55] MinceR no [15:56] MinceR it means that companies like collabora work for a couple of megacorporations that are trying to destroy free software [15:56] MinceR and one of the means they chose to do that is to try to take over FSF [15:56] MinceR RMS and the board is in their way, so they tried to cancel them [15:56] MinceR they also regularly harrass other free software projects [15:57] MinceR sometimes they lobby projects to adopt coraline ada ehmke's CoC [15:57] MinceR sometimes they bother people for using certain technical terms like 'master' [15:58] XRevan86 MinceR: And here I thought that was virtue signalling.

[20:23] DaemonFC LOL [20:23] DaemonFC They can't name a single person who has ever died of a pot overdose. [20:23] DaemonFC But please call 911 so the police can come arrest them. [20:23] DaemonFC I ain't no fackin' narc! [20:24] XRevan86 I need clarification on the wording. Is it like "oh shit, the teen's coming home and there's marijuana everywhere, I need to hide it quickly" or something else? [20:25] DaemonFC XRevan86, There's generally two reasons why the government wants you to "seek help" if your teen is using marijuana. [20:25] DaemonFC So they can slap them in handcuffs while you thought you were taking them to get help. [20:25] DaemonFC And so they can bill you for "rehab" which is just some total grift, of course. [20:25] XRevan86 Ah, teen's marijuana, got it. [20:25] DaemonFC Most teenagers smoke pot a few times and it's no big deal. [20:26] DaemonFC They grow out of it, it never affects their life again. [20:26] DaemonFC But we have all of this junk science floating around because of the drug war. [20:27] DaemonFC Plus, government (law enforcement) propaganda that is quite unscientific, but they openly lie because that's what the cops do, and if you question it, it draws suspicion so nobody does. [20:28] DaemonFC If you call the police out, at best they might ignore you, at worst, they may open up a file on you with or without your knowledge and bad things can start happening for no discernible reason, you know. [20:29] DaemonFC Cops have told me, straight to my face, that they don't have anything on someone, but he's "known to the police" and so they "watch him" to wait for him to do something. [20:29] DaemonFC Many of Gonad's relatives in Huntington, Indiana are in the "files" of the local police. [20:29] DaemonFC They become people of interest because the police see their faces all the time over something, so... [20:30] DaemonFC They make note of what car they drive, and they watch their social media accounts, and they find reasons to pull them over a lot. [20:30] DaemonFC For things they usually let slide when you're not interesting to them. [20:30] DaemonFC Get it? [20:30] DaemonFC They figure out ways to get into the house. [20:31] DaemonFC Most of them have kids, so the cops and social workers show up to the house. They could never get a search warrant, but when there's a kid in the house "someone can make an anonymous complaint" about your parenting. [20:31] DaemonFC And there really is nobody. The police just want to go in there, so they get on the Social Services Web site and file an anonymous complaint themselves. [20:31] DaemonFC Then they show up at the door demanding to be let in. And if you don't, they tell a judge there's a kid in the house that could be in danger. [20:32] geert war on drugs seems kind of scam to me [20:32] DaemonFC XRevan86, When I was angry about my mom having the affair and running off to live with Gonad, you know what I did? [20:32] DaemonFC I figured out ways to harass them from behind-the-scenes. [20:33] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Would be weird if I did? %) [20:33] geert abuse of state of law means, utilizing/stimulating inequality instead of strive for equality [20:33] geert who can tell others what to take or not to take without placing him/herself above others? [20:33] geert without damage, that means kind of uber/untermensch crap [20:33] DaemonFC I did things like call social services from a payphone and say that I witnessed Brian striking my brother and I was a concerned member of the public, but I didn't want to leave my name because I lived nearby and didn't want any trouble. [20:34] geert state of law should mitigate damage issues, where people want damaging others as their income, either physically or materialistically [20:34] DaemonFC So they were in there investigating physical abuse, sexual abuse. They have to investigate everything. [20:34] geert taking drugs is not damaging others [20:34] DaemonFC So the cops were there going through their house with a social worker once in a while for months. [20:35] geert things like that [20:35] DaemonFC And I figured at the very least it would be uncomfortable, and both of them had to be there, so it meant calling out of work to deal with Child Services, again. [20:35] geert err income should be advantage* [20:35] DaemonFC And there's a cop sticking his nose into everything and maybe he'd see something while he was in there. [20:36] DaemonFC And they'd get split up and "interviewed" separately about allegations. [20:36] DaemonFC And if they didn't cooperate, then Child Services could take them to court. [20:37] DaemonFC If there had been any decency at all left in Indiana in 1999 they would have put my mother on a criminal Adultery trial. [20:38] DaemonFC But they don't enforce that in most states anymore, so it doesn't matter what evidence there is if they won't do anything about it. [20:39] DaemonFC Whenever she calls me a criminal, I said, "You know, if you did what you did, you'd be on the bench facing a felony for Adultery in 18 states if they wanted to pursue it. You should be glad this country is coming apart or they'd have had YOU behind bars for a few years and you'd never get your nursing license back." [20:40] DaemonFC In Michigan, Adultery is a felony, and felons can't get most professional licenses, including a nurse. [20:40] DaemonFC So if they wanted to pursue adultery against someone and convicted them, they would have their nursing license revoked forever. [20:40] DaemonFC The law regulating nursing licenses just says "a felony conviction". It doesn't make exceptions. [20:41] DaemonFC So in any decently-ran state, she would have been out on her ass working at Cinnabon with three sets of dockers and a parole officer. [20:41] DaemonFC So I can't believe she wants to constantly remind me of a misdemeanor.

[21:35] MinceR i also consider it laughable that doing the same thing to droids is treated entirely differently [21:35] DaemonFC By Luke Skywalker and Yoda (force ghost). [21:35] MinceR even if the droids have heuristic processors [21:36] DaemonFC Luke said that the Jedi were so arrogant that at the height of their power, Darth Sidious was able to proclaim himself Emperor and kill them all without much of a challenge, and they didn't even see it coming. [21:36] DaemonFC And Yoda called down Force Lightning to burn the "sacred Jedi texts" saying "Valuable lessons they contain, yes, but page turners they are not.". [21:37] MinceR lol [21:37] MinceR maybe the valuable lesson was that jedi ideals should be ignored [21:38] DaemonFC The Jedi came close to destroying the Sith. [21:38] DaemonFC But.... [21:38] DaemonFC The Sith developed the "Rule of Two" to deliberately hide in the shadows and go unnoticed. [21:38] DaemonFC The Jedi eventually became ineffectual and bureaucratic.

[21:39] bagira gotta love the war machine called disney [21:39] MinceR i can't love it [21:39] DaemonFC Sidious (clone) was on Exegol. [21:39] DaemonFC But nobody knew that. [21:39] MinceR i mean, officially [21:39] DaemonFC Except his cult. [21:39] MinceR for example, Darth Krayt had a "One Sith" or something, instead [21:40] DaemonFC The First Order was a ruse. And Snoke didn't count as a Sith. [21:40] DaemonFC Because he was a meatpuppet of Sidious. [21:40] MinceR you could say it was all Snoke and mirrors. [21:40] DaemonFC Yes. [21:40] DaemonFC Remember that some of the officers in the First Order didn't want to be absorbed into the Final Order. [21:41] DaemonFC They wanted to launch an attack on the Sith Fleet while it was still vulnerable and kill Sidious. [21:41] MinceR resistance is futile [21:41] DaemonFC It makes sense. [21:42] DaemonFC The First Order is already militarily powerful enough at this point that without any competition left for supremacy, they can continue taking over the Galaxy without Palpatine. [21:42] DaemonFC What do they need him or his fleet for? [21:42] DaemonFC If they let him live, then he'll be in charge, not them. [21:42] DaemonFC That's not good for them.
