| schestowitz__ | Attentive Observer, you have not actually defined what AI is incapable of doing which excludes it from ever inventing. AI can detect patterns in data which humans cannot. It can produce output with highly complex relationships with input (inventive?). It has many 'mental' functions which are beyond what humans can do. Until we can actually define how it fails compared to a human, it seems unfair to say it cannot invent. | Sep 15 00:10 |

| DaemonFC[m] | I was on the class computer and I saw a huge spider looking at me. | Sep 15 00:13 |

| DaemonFC[m] | I changed out my Brita filter for the month. It's amazing how before people wiped out the Brita filters (I have plenty) they went and bought carts and carts full of bottled water. | Sep 15 00:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Even at the cheapest, the bottled water is about 25 cents for a 16 ounce bottle. It costs 10 cents to filter a gallon of tap water with the Brita if you buy them in the multi-pack. | Sep 15 00:34 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So I can filter 5 gallons for 50 cents, when a 5 gallon drum for a water cooler costs $6.47 for 5 gallons. | Sep 15 00:35 |

| DaemonFC[m] | I was reading one example where they changed how a system call worked in Windows 10 without documenting the change. | Sep 15 01:36 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Windows 10 could still run programs that used the system call as the documentation suggested it should be used, but it was now possible to use it in a way that violated the documentation and get a program that worked on Windows 10 but crashed on everything older. | Sep 15 01:37 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The obvious solution, if you know about this issue, is to make sure you use it the way it was documented, but if you make a mistake, you can very easily ship a bugged application that appears to work fine as long as you only test it on Windows 10. | Sep 15 01:38 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-news.yahoo.com | Yahoo News/YouGov poll: Number of Americans willing to get a COVID vaccination falls to a new low as fears mount that Trump is putting politics before safety | Sep 15 04:44 | |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz__: Well, I'm in the majority. | Sep 15 04:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Wait and see what happens to other people who took it. | Sep 15 04:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | "As a result of Trump’s Election Day timeline, what could have been seen as a revolutionary breakthrough — a vaccine developed four times faster than ever before — is instead coming to be seen as an untrustworthy, politically motivated stunt. A majority of Americans say Trump wants “a vaccine to be released quickly” for political reasons (57 percent) rather than health reasons (24 percent); 82 percent of De | Sep 15 04:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | 61 percent of independents agree with that assessment. In turn, a similar majority of Americans (55 percent) believe the vaccine would not be safe if released before Election Day. Just 14 percent say the opposite — 9 percent of Democrats and 27 percent of Republicans. " | Sep 15 04:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Also predictable. | Sep 15 04:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Most people are intelligent enough to realize that you can't just mandate a vaccine before election day and have it all end well. | Sep 15 04:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It takes as long as it takes. | Sep 15 04:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Also, Trump was stupid enough to act like he could command the FDA to approve one, and then ended up causing a panic among all the vaccine companies, which signed a joint letter saying they won't even submit one to the FDA for approval until it's done with Phase 3 trials, which won't be before the election. | Sep 15 04:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So Trump fails on his promise, and people see through it anyway. He's a dumb oaf who doesn't even realize how to get out of his own way, politically. | Sep 15 04:49 |

| schestowitz__ | Thank you Concerned Observer, my thoughts were also: Why make a fuss about the “Internal Market Bill” and then go on and break international law…?!? | Sep 15 05:17 |
| schestowitz__ | If – with the existing agreements – the UPC is started, it will be fun to see the first case tried in Milan go to the EuCJ because of the wrong venue (this gives a new meaning to “forum non conveniens” 😉 ). But I don’t see a start of the UPC soon, the BVerfG mor or less invited new constitutional complaints, so I guess it will take some more years to resolve the open questions, assuming this is at all possible. | Sep 15 05:17 |
| schestowitz__ | With the mess made out of the UPC agreement, it would be best to completely scrap it and start from scratch – without interested litigators during the drafting. | Sep 15 05:17 |

| schestowitz__ | " | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | A lot has already, correctly, been said by earlier commenters, but I would like to add some thoughts going in the same direction. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | That the preparatory committee is positive about the future of the EPC cannot come as a surprise. If this committee does not believe in the UPCA, who should? | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Questions remain. One of them being: is a “note verbale” enough to withdraw from a treaty? I have strong doubts. The absence of an exit clause in the UPCA makes the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties applicable and I concur with Concerned Observer. Art 24 VCLT does not appear applicable. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Neither the Italian declaration nor the preparatory committee make any reference to this treaty. In the presentation of the new ratification bill there is a mention of a common declaration under Art 31(3) VCLT, but it is difficult to consider the declaration of the IT Minister of Foreign affairs to be such a declaration. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | An interesting question is also, should such a declaration under Art 31(3) VCLT also be endorsed by the countries having signed but not yet ratified? I would be inclined to say yes, since should they ratify later, they might be put in a situation they could neither envisage nor control. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Are we living in a world free of rules or regulations, where lobbyists can push their desires into reality? I just hope not, as otherwise we would live in the jungle and not in a civilised word. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Without amending Art 7(2) UPCA beforehand, the UPCA will end up in mess. The compromise à la EU when deciding to split the “Central” Division now backfires, and rightly so. The whole idea of splitting was crazy and corresponded to a lousy compromise à la EU. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | If the question of Art 7(2) UPCA is not settled beforehand, it will remain as a Damocles sword over the future of the UPC. At least in Germany, there is the notion of an “appointed” judge. A party cannot influence the designation of the judge dealing with its case. There is a clear set of rules on the designation of any judge in any affair. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | That now a different judge can be designated by way of an administrative action does not seem to correspond to this fundamental idea which is part of the set of rules which guarantee the independency of the judiciary over the executive. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Any party losing before the transferred section of the Central division will not accept it, and will find any way possible to have this, avoidable, situation being scrutinised, for instance before the CJEU or even a national court like the German Federal Constitutional Court. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | One does not need to wait until a Milan Section delivers a decision to go to the CJEU. The problem applies also if the duties of the London Section are transferred “provisionally” to Paris and/or Munich. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Some of the constitutional problems linked with the supremacy of the UPCA over the German Constitution have not been resolved, and even worse, they have been completely ignored in the presentation of the new ratification bill. | Sep 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Last but not least, the present coalition does not have on its own a 2/3 majority in the Parliament, so that the ratification is not yet acquired for this reason alone. | Sep 15 05:19 |
| schestowitz__ | One thing is now clear, there is no mention whatsoever of the beneficial effect of the UPC for European SMEs. This farce has now been ended. Why bother if the goal is almost achieved! | Sep 15 05:19 |
| schestowitz__ | I fully agree that all the interested litigators having co-opted each other in the drafting committee of the RoP should be excluded from any further drafting committees linked with a reviewed UPCA. | Sep 15 05:19 |
| schestowitz__ | I have heard from very reliable sources that some national judges are complaining and are totting up all the money they miss by the delayed entry into force of the UPCA. This is also something not nice to hear, and those judges having been co-opted in this famous drafting committee should also be excluded. | Sep 15 05:19 |
| schestowitz__ | Sorry folks the end does not justify the means. The rule of law should be respected by judges and lawyers alike. | Sep 15 05:19 |

| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz__: Here's a cut and paste: | Sep 15 23:21 |
| *DaemonFC[m] sent a long message: < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/FvHjWqdlWsEzipXgZWfiBwQf/message.txt > | Sep 15 23:21 | |
| schestowitz__ | DaemonFC[m]: GP is OK | Sep 15 23:22 |
| schestowitz__ | there's an issue of voice-splitting, sure | Sep 15 23:22 |
| schestowitz__ | but that does not mean they're not allowed to participate | Sep 15 23:22 |
| schestowitz__ | GP did not "sucker" RMS | Sep 15 23:23 |
| schestowitz__ | he has long supported GP | Sep 15 23:23 |
| schestowitz__ | before a crazy candidate like Trump | Sep 15 23:23 |
| schestowitz__ | shaming people who reject corporate parties is very misguided | Sep 15 23:23 |
| schestowitz__ | he also supported an independent 'democrat', Sanders | Sep 15 23:23 |
| schestowitz__ | and still does | Sep 15 23:23 |
| schestowitz__ | if you look at his homepage | Sep 15 23:23 |
| schestowitz__ | he's looking past tribalism and into substance | Sep 15 23:24 |
| DaemonFC[m] | We actually have undeniable Crimes Against Humanity going on in America under Trump. Because they happen to immigrants, many people turn a blind eye to it. In the early 1900s, Republicans tried mass sterilizations (forced) against American citizens too, including the 1907 law in my home state of Indiana which was cited by none other than Hitler as justification for his Nazi Eugenics plan. | Sep 15 23:24 |
| schestowitz__ | Biden and all the other "D" candidates derails Sanders | Sep 15 23:25 |
| schestowitz__ | in a very malicious, sneaky fashion | Sep 15 23:25 |
| schestowitz__ | so if people reject D and vote for something not Trump, fine with me | Sep 15 23:26 |
| schestowitz__ | fair enough even | Sep 15 23:26 |
| schestowitz__ | don't demonise them | Sep 15 23:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They're fucking us. | Sep 15 23:26 |
| DaemonFC[m] | That's all they're doing. They're fucking us and then they'll be all like "How did this happen? This is awful!" because they'll vote green and get orange again. | Sep 15 23:27 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The Green party is a shill group working for the Republicans. | Sep 15 23:27 |
| schestowitz__ | "I mean this is all stuff Stallman says he wants, and he throws his vote away on joke candidates like Howie Hawkins, who is retired from unloading UPS trucks and might get 0.2% of the national popular vote." | Sep 15 23:27 |
| schestowitz__ | Are you job-shaming him? | Sep 15 23:27 |
| schestowitz__ | Because he's not some corporate lawyer like many politicians are? | Sep 15 23:27 |
| schestowitz__ | He's a unionist | Sep 15 23:27 |
| schestowitz__ | the people who stand for people like you and Mandy who worked for the Waltons, like serfs... | Sep 15 23:28 |
| schestowitz__ | [23:27] <DaemonFC[m]> The Green party is a shill group working for the Republicans. | Sep 15 23:28 |
| DaemonFC[m] | What qualifications does he bring to the table? You know the last two times we got a Washington outsider, it was a disaster. | Sep 15 23:28 |
| schestowitz__ | meh | Sep 15 23:28 |
| schestowitz__ | that's like saying collectively that gay people is some plot to take over the world | Sep 15 23:28 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Carter and Trump wouldn't work with Congress and didn't know how to enact policy, and you got exactly what we're going through now with Trump because of this. | Sep 15 23:28 |
| schestowitz__ | or that abortion is a baby-hating cult | Sep 15 23:28 |
| schestowitz__ | brb | Sep 15 23:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The Democrats gave Bill 1 minute of convention time. | Sep 15 23:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Carter didn't get any. | Sep 15 23:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | He never spoke at a DNC again after his term ended. | Sep 15 23:29 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Bill Clinton has become a major liability and Hillary even more so (nowhere to be seen at the DNC, you know). | Sep 15 23:30 |
| schestowitz__ | yesterday: https://www.commondreams.org/news/2020/09/14/beyond-attacking-trump-sanders-says-biden-campaign-must-give-people-reason-vote-joe | Sep 15 23:30 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.commondreams.org | Beyond Attacking Trump, Sanders Says Biden Campaign Must 'Give People a Reason to Vote for Joe' | Common Dreams News | Sep 15 23:30 | |
| schestowitz__ | nails it | Sep 15 23:30 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The last thing the Democrats wanted to do was call attention to the Clintons right now. | Sep 15 23:30 |
| schestowitz__ | Biden it shite | Sep 15 23:30 |
| schestowitz__ | but a lesser shite tan trump | Sep 15 23:30 |
| schestowitz__ | than | Sep 15 23:30 |
| schestowitz__ | and that's not a way to rally the left to actually vote | Sep 15 23:30 |
| schestowitz__ | they might "tweet" for him | Sep 15 23:30 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Well, the polls show Democrats united around Biden for the most part. | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | but won't show up to vote with obstructions in place like queues, covid etc. | Sep 15 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It's obvious why. | Sep 15 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | People are furious about Trump and they have been even before this plague. | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | which Democrats? | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | people? | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | voters? | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | party leaders? | Sep 15 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Voters. | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | sponsors? | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | Voters polled by corporate media | Sep 15 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I supported Sanders in 2016 and this year in the primary. | Sep 15 23:31 |
| DaemonFC[m] | In 2008, I supported Obama. | Sep 15 23:31 |
| schestowitz__ | he's loathed by the rich | Sep 15 23:32 |
| schestowitz__ | as he would tax them, as one ought to | Sep 15 23:32 |
| schestowitz__ | they prefer trump | Sep 15 23:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I never wanted Hillary Clinton to be the president, but I voted for her in 2016 anyway. | Sep 15 23:32 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Because it was her or Trump. | Sep 15 23:32 |
| schestowitz__ | doesn't matter if trump 'loses' | Sep 15 23:32 |
| schestowitz__ | he want leave | Sep 15 23:33 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'd rather slow walk this thing until we can move past Biden. It won't be long. | Sep 15 23:33 |
| schestowitz__ | he he 'loses', expect chaos | Sep 15 23:33 |
| schestowitz__ | if he 'wins', more calm, but the country is over | Sep 15 23:33 |
| schestowitz__ | he wants more terms | Sep 15 23:33 |

| DaemonFC[m] | I've been calling around trying to figure out how to get a cheap dental cleaning since CLC is closed. | Sep 15 23:44 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I found a dentist office with good reviews who does a new patient exam and cleaning for $70. I don't think I'll do better than that. | Sep 15 23:44 |
| DaemonFC[m] | My dentist in Chicago did like $120 or something for a cleaning, but more if you needed x-rays. | Sep 15 23:45 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There's all of these dental "discount cards" that aren't insurance. Delta Dental makes a killing on them because they charge you like $15 a month to use the card and then you get their "negotiated price" with the dentist, who bills them more because they're an insurance company. | Sep 15 23:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | So you get to pay for a plan that makes your dental bill higher. | Sep 15 23:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | :) | Sep 15 23:46 |
| schestowitz__ | why are we talking about dentists? | Sep 15 23:46 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Just one of those ridiculous things that I'm sure only happens here. | Sep 15 23:47 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Thanks to Stallman and the Green Party, we may go through another 4 years of millions more people losing their health insurance, not just their teeth. | Sep 15 23:48 |
| DaemonFC[m] | He probably doesn't personally influence enough people to cause another disaster. | Sep 15 23:49 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But he's contributing to the problem. | Sep 15 23:49 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I think it really says everything that it was a law firm that works for the Wisconsin Republican Party being paid by guess who that was trying to get Howie Hawkins on the ballot. | Sep 15 23:49 |
| DaemonFC[m] | When the news asked for a comment from Hawkins, he just said "Well, you take help wherever you can get it.". | Sep 15 23:50 |
| DaemonFC[m] | At least he didn't lie about who his primary benefactor is. Donald Trump. | Sep 15 23:50 |
| DaemonFC[m] | This Wisconsin Green party thing was worse than those lawsuits trying to make voting harder or disenfranchise people or ripping apart mail sorting machines. | Sep 15 23:51 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It had the potential to give Trump another one of those sliver of a fraction of a percentage wins of a state where he'd gain 10 electoral votes. | Sep 15 23:51 |
| DaemonFC[m] | We don't know how the USPS thing will affect election day in Wisconsin. We don't know exactly how hard it will be to stand in line to vote in person in Milwaukee or Madison. | Sep 15 23:52 |
| DaemonFC[m] | But either 40,000 Communists who were being duped by Trump will either get out of the way now or just vote for Biden. | Sep 15 23:52 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Eve if they just get out of the way it will undo some of the other sabotage to the mail and polling sites. | Sep 15 23:53 |
| DaemonFC[m] | We've always had fringe parties, but at least before now they really didn't cram the system with useless ballots when it only has a certain capacity, you know. Because of the other tricks and the virus. | Sep 15 23:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz__: They could still vote for Howie Hawkins, it would just be a spoiled ballot. | Sep 15 23:54 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Like when I occasionally vote for myself as a protest. | Sep 15 23:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | It has the same effect as if he was on the ballot. | Sep 15 23:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | The reason the Republicans were really funding this was because it was a twofer. | Sep 15 23:55 |
| DaemonFC[m] | If they got him on the ballot, he'd siphon maybe 40,000 votes from Biden, but it would also force the county clerks to miss deadlines and have to reprint all of the ballots, and it would throw the election into chaos and prevent millions of people from votingl | Sep 15 23:56 |
| schestowitz__ | quit blaming RMS | Sep 15 23:56 |
| schestowitz__ | he supports something he believes in | Sep 15 23:56 |
| schestowitz__ | not Trump | Sep 15 23:56 |
| schestowitz__ | focus on people who actually vote Trump | Sep 15 23:56 |
| DaemonFC[m] | I'm glad that the Greens are having a bad year. This is the worst time ever to drain votes from a Democrat. | Sep 15 23:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | They can go back to silly season when things are better and we have that luxury again. | Sep 15 23:57 |
| schestowitz__ | Dead: 200,098 | Sep 15 23:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | What they do now is worthy of contempt. | Sep 15 23:57 |
| DaemonFC[m] | Again, this proves that the government of Sweden is lying and very corrupt. | Sep 15 23:58 |
| DaemonFC[m] | There's no way in hell that this just blew threw a country that didn't do a damned thing and doesn't even require masks and the damage was pretty mild and never flared up again. | Sep 15 23:59 |
| schestowitz__ | I heard so ages ago | Sep 15 23:59 |
| schestowitz__ | about Sweden | Sep 15 23:59 |
| schestowitz__ | people think of them as gentle and well-educated blondes | Sep 15 23:59 |
