DaemonFCWhen it got to court, nobody cared how credible she was, he wasn't allowed to confront his accuser "because it was a child", and then his attorney was a big fat crook who took it in front of a jury because those are more expensive.Mar 20 01:34

DaemonFCAnyway, I just don't trust women fully. I doubt I ever will.Mar 20 01:40
DaemonFCI've seen too many reasons not to.Mar 20 01:40
DaemonFCIt's not that you can necessarily trust men but they don't tend to have this bitter vindictive burn you to the ground sort of willingness to corrupt the system.Mar 20 01:41
DaemonFCIf they want to cheat on you and move out, they will.Mar 20 01:41
DaemonFCIf they want to run off to the police and say you hit them, they will (although it happens to straight men too and we all know the state cares more when a woman is an alleged victim).Mar 20 01:42
DaemonFCBut I've never seen the level of vindictive spitefulness I've seen women engage in.Mar 20 01:42
DaemonFCMaybe the worst it gets on a 10 point scale is a 3 or a 4 with a man, but a woman will dial it up to 11.Mar 20 01:42

DaemonFCThe US healthcare system is so shitty that you have people drawing their own blood at home to see if they have Syphilis, and mailing it off to an app company to see if they can get pills for that.Mar 20 01:51

DaemonFCLegal controversyMar 20 03:59
DaemonFCNewDotNet has been implicated as the cause[8] of a controversial 2007 criminal trial which received international media coverage.[9][10] In State of Connecticut v. Julie Amero, a substitute teacher was arrested after students in her 7th Grade class reported that they had seen pornographic images on her computer screen. Amero said the computer would not stop sending pop-ups and that she did not know what to do with the computer.Mar 20 03:59
DaemonFCAmero was convicted on four counts of risk of injury to a minor, or impairing the morals of a child, and faced up to 40 years in prison. The state Supreme Court overturned the conviction and ordered a new trial, but Amero instead pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of disorderly conduct and had her Connecticut teaching credentials revoked.[11] A subsequent forensic analysis revealed that the uncontrollable pornographic popups were propagated by Mar 20 03:59

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-web.archive.org | Connecticut drops felony charges against Julie Amero, four years after her arrest - Rick Green | CT ConfidentialMar 20 04:01
DaemonFC"Amero agreed to plead guilty to a single charge of disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor. Amero, who has been hospitalized and suffers from declining health, also surrendered her teaching license.Mar 20 04:01
DaemonFC"Oh honey, it's over. I feel wonderful," Amero, 41, said a few minutes after accepting the deal where she also had to surrender her teaching license. "The Norwich police made a mistake. It was proven. That makes me feel like I'm on top of the world."Mar 20 04:01
DaemonFCIn June of 2007, Judge Hillary B. Strackbein tossed out Amero's conviction on charges that she intentionally caused a stream of "pop-up" pornography on the computer in her classroom and allowed students to view it. Confronted with evidence compiled by forensic computer experts, Strackbein ordered a new trial, saying the conviction was based on "erroneous" and "false information."Mar 20 04:01
DaemonFCBut since that dramatic reversal, local officials, police and state prosecutors were unwilling to admit that a mistake may have been made -- even after computer experts from around the country demonstrated that Amero's computer had been infected by "spyware.""Mar 20 04:01

mateytherefore gnu/linux has no futureMar 20 06:14
mateybecause gnu has foolishly tied itself to a backstabber pretender to the throne of a kernelMar 20 06:14
mateywhy bother being compatible with other kernels, when you can chase syst-ibm-d while it chases its tail?Mar 20 06:15

kingoffrancewhat are you saying, i should make choices based on reality and not surface appearances?Mar 20 06:21
mateyno, youre too smart to tell you anything (thats both good and bad, i mean it in a mostly neutral way)Mar 20 06:21
mateywhat im saying is that draugr os is a farce, and also that gnu isnt very free at this point (2 separate points, which have some overlap)Mar 20 06:22
mateybut im not picking on draugr, tell me another distro youre interested in and ill give it the same treatmentMar 20 06:22
kingoffrancei was just quoting, it was in my scrollback :DMar 20 06:22
mateyno worriesMar 20 06:23
kingoffranceprompted> anyone using Drauger OS ?Mar 20 06:23
mateyif i made a gnu/linux distro today it would be a distro designed specifically to get people to stop using gnu/linuxMar 20 06:25
mateyive thought about it, but ive always found something better to do with my time, like tease daemonfc about his racismMar 20 06:26
mateyits never going to stop him and yet its somewhat satisfying Mar 20 06:26
mateykingoffrance heres an interesting tidbit from the draugros websiteMar 20 06:31
mateyIf you are currently (1) living within the People’s Republic of China; (2) a citizen of the People’s Republic of China; (3) a government official or contractor working for the People’s Republic of China; or (4) accessing this website through a Chinese network or VPN; you are expressly FORBIDDEN to access this website, or any website hosted on our network (including but not limited to all subdomains of cygo.network, cygonetwork.com, and draugeros.oMar 20 06:31
mateyso citzens of the republic of china (which i presume to mean anyone bor there) are forbidden from accessing draugeros.orgMar 20 06:32
mateyit reminds me of a line from an old bullwinkle cartoon, boris and natasha are outside a launch site and natasha is reading a signMar 20 06:34
matey"welcome to cape carnivorous-- all spies must register with personnel officer"Mar 20 06:35

mateynatasha: we arent going to register?Mar 20 06:35

mateywhen it comes time to get parts for their console, i wonder where they will source them from.Mar 20 06:38
mateyprobably amazon, theyre american i think.Mar 20 06:38

kingoffranceby not leaving you agree not to arrest meMar 20 06:44
mateythe shrinkwrap defenceMar 20 06:44
mateylike you can just put a sign on your property that says "cops may not trespass" and when they get there theyll be like "well, shit, i guess we have to resign from the force before we can do anything"Mar 20 06:45

mateypity is a worthless emotion (its like the douchebag cousin of compassion) but the one group of people i feel actual pity for are the sort who put eulas on gpl software and shrinkwrap licenses on free software websitesMar 20 06:47
mateywith terms that are impossible to enforce, like they dont miss the point of the whole thing anywayMar 20 06:48
mateyits sort of like "i wanted to be a lawyer but i suck at that, so i make video games"-- nothing against making video games.Mar 20 06:48
matey"but look at this cool notice i put on my website!"Mar 20 06:48
kingoffrance" a government official or contractor working for the People’s Republic of China"  that eliminates all the western civilization proud boysMar 20 06:50
mateyironically theres nothing about russia at all, but i suspect thats because the website is neglected in favour of making a neat case for the intel console Mar 20 06:50
kingoffrance:)  there go the churchesMar 20 06:50

mjg59_So just dropping EU exit nodes would help right now, but there's no guarantee it would in the long termMar 20 07:56
mjg59_Services that want to be accessible in the face of censorship basically need to run an onion service, but obviously that complicates things because talking about how you're doing that also enables people to circumvent any censorship your state is imposingMar 20 07:57

DaemonFCFurthermore, they openly threaten to fire you if you give your subscription to anyone else, including your spouse.

DaemonFCThen they haul you into the office and ask why someone else has been using your discount card, and then fire you.Mar 20 21:17
DaemonFCSo if you are going to let them use it, they should toss their stuff in your cart and you should arrange to pay with cash they hand you, or your card and they hand you an equal amount of cash later.Mar 20 21:17
