IsambardPrinceI was talking to my therapist about an informational vs. a technological society. I told her I enjoyed living in the late technological/early informational stage of the US, which was roughly the 90s to mid 2000s.Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrince Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrinceWe're officially in the propaganda and AI Slop phase of the Informational Society. I told her there's a movie I saw on a streaming app but have not watched called "Everyone is lying to you for money."Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrince Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrinceThat title about sums up the 2020s and the Propaganda and AI Slop phase. I told her that those data centers are burning through electricity and water like  crazy so that nobody who listens to that will know anything real anymore. You can fill Facebook and YouTube feeds with AI Slop that's not real and harvest ad revenue. Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrinceEven cheap fake smut is coming out of the Slop Bubble.Oct 16 05:23

IsambardPrinceI said I do what I can. I use DuckDuckGo No-AI and the Huge AI Block List in my ad blocker so I don't see as much fake stuff and slop as that can block, but it's still bad.Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrince Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrinceWhen I was 14 I wrote a website in a text editor, by hand. I told her many people did. Mine had HTML 3.2, no CSS, no JavaScript. I considered CSS and JavaScript to be bloat and "formatting slop". I wanted to make sure that no matter what people used, they could read the site, which is what mattered. HTML 3.2 has everything that matters and then some, including tables and what size and color and position the text should be.Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrince Oct 16 05:23
IsambardPrinceYou don't need anything else. 98% of a modern web page is formatting slop, ads, trackers, all kinds of garbage. You have to load hundreds of MB to get 5-10 KB of text. It's outrageous.Oct 16 05:23

IsambardPrinceLandlords buy fridges from around 1990-2013.Oct 16 19:59
IsambardPrinceVery basic models.Oct 16 19:59
IsambardPrinceThey don't want to invest more than the law requires them to in a rental.Oct 16 20:00
*nobody has quit (connection closed)Oct 16 20:00
IsambardPrinceBut I have never had one of these refrigerators break down.Oct 16 20:00
*nobody (~nobody@xvcurqvi5ffa2.irc) has joined #techrightsOct 16 20:00
IsambardPrinceThey do not need firmware, or USB ports, and they have no tablet.Oct 16 20:00
IsambardPrinceIt's odd that something landlords stick in a rental because they're cheap are more reliable than things marketed to rich people.Oct 16 20:01
IsambardPrinceI have a rider on my insurance policy for my apartment, several actually.Oct 16 20:01
IsambardPrinceBut one of them was incredibly cheap.Oct 16 20:01
IsambardPrinceFor $2.31 for an entire year, they will insure me against the refrigerator breaking down and ruining up to $500 of food, and my deductible does not apply.Oct 16 20:02
IsambardPrinceI have witnessed some tenants with refrigerators that broke, but only twice.Oct 16 20:02
IsambardPrinceIn my entire life.Oct 16 20:02
IsambardPrinceThe annualized risk of a fridge breaking down while it's full of food is so low that the insurance company can profit on just over $2 a year added to your premium.Oct 16 20:03
IsambardPrinceI also have a $500 pet damage rider.Oct 16 20:04
IsambardPrinceAnd $10,000 of drain backup.Oct 16 20:04
IsambardPrinceThose are quite cheap as well.Oct 16 20:04
IsambardPrinceThey know that the most damage a little cat usually does is maybe piss on the floor or something if it gets old and incontinent.Oct 16 20:05

schestowitz[TR2]they don't have budget for thatOct 16 20:11
IsambardPrinceWe backed up into the guy's driveway.Oct 16 20:11

schestowitz[TR2]isn't dave the milk and frosting guy?Oct 16 20:12
schestowitz[TR2]not the salt guy?Oct 16 20:12
IsambardPrinceWhen Dave pulled out, the dtrailer dug a line into the guy's brand new driveway.Oct 16 20:12
IsambardPrinceAbbout 2" wide and 10 feet long.Oct 16 20:13
IsambardPrinceThe guy was looking at us with his mouth dropped open.Oct 16 20:13

schestowitz[TR2]"ma mortgage"Oct 16 20:13
IsambardPrinceI told Dave and Dave hit the accelerator and drove off.Oct 16 20:13
IsambardPrinceAnd just left the guy with hundreds of dollars in damage to his brand new driveway after he sold him a nice fridge for like $75, something ridiculously low.Oct 16 20:14
IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], Yes, Dave is the milk and frosting guy.Oct 16 20:14
IsambardPrinceHe blamed my brother for the milk always being gone.Oct 16 20:14

IsambardPrinceShe said that to keep milk in the house for cooking mashed potatoes or something she had to go to the Dollar Tree and get boxed shelf stable milk.Oct 16 20:15
IsambardPrinceDave also smokes heavily.Oct 16 20:15
IsambardPrinceAnd he weighs over 300 pounds.Oct 16 20:16

IsambardPrinceAnd Dave and Collin were sitting on the couch drinking it out of the bottles.Oct 16 20:16
IsambardPrinceNot even bothering to go get a glass.Oct 16 20:16
IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], This is why Americans get a bad rap. Because there's like IDK, maybe 5% of the population that has just decided to let it all hang out.Oct 16 20:17
IsambardPrinceIt's not just "overweight", not even "obese". It's drinking HFCS soda out of a 3 liter bottle without going to get a glass.Oct 16 20:18

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], Everyone my mother has been married to, or dated, has had a severe personality deficit.Oct 16 20:22
IsambardPrinceEvery time she started over it was just a different kind of bad.Oct 16 20:23
IsambardPrinceBy the time she married Dave it was "He's a gluttonous pig who somehow has a bunch of girlfriends on the side."Oct 16 20:23
IsambardPrinceAt one point I asked her "How does it feel to have things come full circle?"Oct 16 20:23

IsambardPrinceSo he waited until he was at work and he lifted a TV and screamed "OWWWWWW!" and got the Catholic church to pay for it under Worker's Compensation.Oct 16 20:26
IsambardPrinceThen they decided that if they were going to have to pay him to recuperate at home, they were going to have him do some sort of work.Oct 16 20:26

IsambardPrinceThen had to sell the house at fire sale prices to raise some money.Oct 16 20:31

IsambardPrinceThe news media is at risk of action by the DOJ, FTC, or FCC if they cover the massive cuts being planned for Social Security.Oct 16 20:41
IsambardPrince Oct 16 20:41
IsambardPrinceThere are two possible outcomes.Oct 16 20:41
IsambardPrince Oct 16 20:41
IsambardPrinceThey said depending on how much time they have they'll try to either cut Social Security next year or throw it all together in a "Christmas Eve" surprise bill before January 3rd.Oct 16 20:41
IsambardPrince Oct 16 20:41
IsambardPrinceRight now they're muddying the waters by calling it reforms and pretending that there's some possibility that we'll get off light or that the very rich will be asked to pay some taxes, but we all know that isn't what's coming.Oct 16 20:41

IsambardPrinceRun it straight to the edge, call it an emergency, make deep benefits cuts, raise the full retirement age to 72 or sometthing, which is longer than most working class people actually live, so the program effectively disappears for anyone earning a modest wage who can't afford the healthcare to live much past their 50s or 60s.Oct 16 20:44
IsambardPrince Oct 16 20:44
IsambardPrinceYou know, in the Philippines, living to be 72 is like living to be 95 here. And there's a faction that wants to make life in America more like the Philippines for most Americans.Oct 16 20:44

IsambardPrinceThere's very dark reasons why they want to take ALL healthcare away from the working class. When you don't manage chronic conditions with basic medicine, because it's too expensive to even talk to a doctor to get a $4-5 bottle of pills, then you end up having a heart attack and dying, then you don't cost Social Security or Medicare anything in old age.Oct 16 20:45

nobodyanother prominent political lie is, unemployed supposedly didn't here into any arbitrary amount of open positions, hence this justified cutting social spendingsOct 16 21:34

nobodythe only result any survey yields _always_ is, any arbitrary amount of open job positins weren't hired intoOct 16 21:36
nobodyhence when the opposite was true, which it is, insufficient open job positions existed, then this didn't justify social spendings cut by blaming unemployedOct 16 21:37
