In the 1980s my grandparents got into a bunch of credit card debt. Not everyone sued them before the statute was up, and I think most of it was on store cards, like Sears and JC Penney. [00:05] DaemonFC I was amused to learn that as recently as 2008, people would still call asking to speak to my grandfather, who had been dead for 10 years, about his Sears card that charged off in 1988.

[01:04] psydroid2 Export bans prompt Russia to use Chinese x86 CPU replacement The Register <- this looks like a garbage chip compared to ARM and Loongson alternatives from China [01:04] XRevan86 And post-factum I figured that I've seen snippets from it floating around the web. [01:05] XRevan86 I was wondering, why the heck would there be a high-res interview with Putin where he's this young? Now I know, a documentary on FSB with him in the spotlight. [01:10] activelow currently, best Putin buddy, former chancellor gazprom Schroeder, is cruzified in german media [01:11] activelow which i consider an orchestrated media spectacle, distracting from the fact, gas deliveries continue as usual [01:11] activelow it's psychological manipulation, and indoctrination of the masses [01:12] XRevan86 He's a cronie, why is bashing bad? [01:13] activelow i wouldn't critizise him for the gazprom business involvement [01:13] XRevan86 I would. [01:14] activelow somehow, this business didn't benefit me; it is his apparatschiks who enjoy luxury cars and wealth [01:14] activelow thinking about it, the critique i had, is related to some certain social agendas (fake labor market and corrupt carels) [01:14] activelow cartels [01:15] XRevan86 Even just getting a post in Gazprom is already a huge red flag hinting at his involvement in Gazprom's machinations / corruption. [01:16] activelow i think, the "renewable energy" cash grabbing propaganda scam, is even worse [01:16] activelow difference being, gazprom does deliver energy/gas... the renewable energy scam doesn't [01:16] activelow and while energy prices explode, with the argument to safe the planet and social justice blah blah [01:17] activelow in germany, we hit temperatures above 30degC in may, two month early summer season, and even during July such temperates are excessive [01:18] activelow this "social agenda", bottom line, didn't sanction those who complied with labor market rules, it sanctioned those who i questioned certain aspects and fakes of it [01:19] activelow same with the "renewable" scam... it's all fake, and EU and "green party", they too sanction those who support sustainable economy and lifestyle [01:19] activelow and the cash grabbed from "carbon eco certificate" taxation scam is funneled into the pockets who emit excessively [01:20] DaemonFC schestowitz_TR2, I don't even know how Disney World is in business.

[01:20] DaemonFC For what I paid for the Buick plus all the repairs it needed to get it back on the road in proper working order, you could have about one week at Disney World. [01:21] DaemonFC Even less if you also stay at one of their on-site resorts. [01:21] activelow in recent weeks, prices in grocery stores increased, twice, in total +30%... almost everything... meat, milk, bread, noodles [01:21] activelow it is an excessive price increase [01:21] XRevan86 activelow: I am far removed from the EU but even from here I can see that the EU considered gas "green". [01:22] XRevan86 The EU's sin is attempting to kill off nuclear power plants, getting dependent on gas in the process. [01:22] activelow XRevan86: it is moot to discuss what is green and what isn't [01:22] DaemonFC My Aunt would sometimes pay $7,000 or more plus plane tickets (call it $8,000 at this point) plus food and stuff, to go there, and stay at their resorts and walk around waiting on rides in lines. [01:22] XRevan86 activelow: Except it's kind of part of the scam. [01:22] XRevan86 Gas is. [01:22] DaemonFC And that was over a decade ago. [01:23] activelow "EU" is fake, this parliament there, it is a bunch of psycho sectarians, brain washing, it is all "communication strategy" ... whatever they say [01:23] DaemonFC And that was for a one week trip. Sometimes they'd stay two weeks and pay $15,000. [01:23] DaemonFC And then they'd come back home and the bank had blown up their answering machine threatening to take the house away. [01:23] *XRevan86 shrugs. [01:23] activelow and political parties there, how should i explain, it is a battle-field of *national* interests... and certain ideology perpetuated there is merely industry politics to harm each other [01:24] activelow this "renewable" scam, is one such utility, to benefit cash grabbers [01:24] DaemonFC They like to say gas is less carbon intensive than some other things, like coal. [01:24] DaemonFC But it really isn't. [01:25] DaemonFC The process of drilling for an extracting gas also releases worse GHG agents into the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, like methane.

[01:28] activelow USA? [01:28] activelow so, what is this? [01:29] XRevan86 activelow: Aid givers are those who are responsible for what happened in the Kyiv district? [01:29] activelow XRevan86: you probably miss some context, maybe have a walk with me here in Germany, in some of the cities... and see who the benefitiaries are [01:29] activelow corona at fault, putin at fault... now schroeder cruzified [01:30] activelow the EU propaganda distracts, systematically, from their corruption and mis-management [01:30] *techrights-ipfs-bot (~techrights-ipfs-bot@s44cwn8sugddy.irc) has joined #techrights [01:30] XRevan86 activelow: How about a walk in Ukraine or Russia instead? [01:30] activelow and in german politics, it is mostly foreign agents who act in the interest of other countries, not germany, or what remained of it [01:30] activelow XRevan86: good question. [01:31] activelow because, i do remember the times after 1990, as a child, mass unemployment, alcohol, and the type of buildings burned down in ukraine [01:31] XRevan86 My context is defined by this war, it colours everything for me. [01:32] XRevan86 This is a tragedy of a lifetime. [01:32] activelow too reminds me of Yugoslavia, the economic collapse there, which happened, _before_ violence escalated [01:33] activelow "EU" is WORSE than russia [01:33] XRevan86 Ukraine was doing all right economically. Mariupol was doing all right. It literally will never recover. [01:33] XRevan86 Ukraine will recover, Mariupol never will. [01:33] activelow they are killing slowly, in silence [01:33] XRevan86 Literally never. [01:34] activelow and then, replace the population, with immigrants [01:34] XRevan86 activelow: Oh, if ye're into that sort of thing, look at what's going on in the remote regions of Russia. [01:35] XRevan86 Those regions where most of the people that went to invade Ukraine are from incidentally. [01:35] activelow and then, reloop, again, this served "climate change" and "social ecological justice"... XRevan86 just have a walk with me, in german cities [01:36] activelow although, to comprehend this situation, this must be enjoyed for a decade [01:36] activelow if there isn't anyone remaining anymore, who spoke your language, hostility [01:36] XRevan86 activelow: Russia was overflown with immigrants, until they said "fsck this shit, I'm out". [01:36] activelow russia wasn't [01:37] activelow and until 1990, east-german wasn't... [01:37] XRevan86 activelow: Ye're telling me. [01:37] MinceR activelow must have been too young to see what terrorussia did to east/central europe before 1990 [01:37] activelow russian troops disappeared, military dismantled in east germany... [01:37] XRevan86 Would've been nice if activelow had a bit of perspective on Russia. [01:37] activelow XRevan86: there isn't a single east-german CEO in any leading german company [01:37] activelow not at least one [01:38] activelow they wiped all former university staff, and placed their minions [01:38] MinceR putler wants to take over all these countries again [01:38] activelow _after_ russian soldiers disappeared from east-germany [01:38] MinceR fortunately for us, he has no army with which to do it [01:38] activelow MinceR: i am saying, EU or whatever this is, EU is WORSE than russia [01:38] XRevan86 It's not. [01:39] activelow XRevan86: then let me ask, guess who benefits from this war? [01:39] XRevan86 activelow: Ye asked before and provided a shitty conspiracy. [01:39] MinceR you're saying that, but you're wrong [01:40] activelow well, then i must have missed some details, in the last 20 years [01:40] MinceR indeed [01:40] XRevan86 The actors are well-known, I don't need any hidden puppeteers in my picture of the war. [01:40] MinceR and especially before the last 30 years [01:41] XRevan86 Putin tried to benefit from the war, he failed. [01:41] XRevan86 Now he's doing his version of damage control and goes to the end. [01:42] XRevan86 His version is no damage control. [01:42] MinceR :> [01:42] XRevan86 And because his regime is based on lies, he can't even properly assess how doomed the situation is. [01:42] activelow Ukraine... stuffed their pockets with Dollars [01:42] activelow to my knowledge, Russian and EU currencies aren't... dollar [01:43] XRevan86 The relation to currency this war has is approximately naught. [01:43] MinceR afaik this war started because vladolf wanted it [01:43] MinceR so even if ukraine were to benefit from it (which, afaik, they didn't), it would be hard to blame them for it [01:44] activelow i can't grasp this, the propaganda bullshit, it was "Ukraine vs Russia" [01:44] DaemonFC and until 1990, east-german wasn't... [01:44] DaemonFC Yeah, lots of people shot trying to get OUT. [01:44] DaemonFC Not too many trying to get in. [01:44] XRevan86 MinceR: They do benefit from it in one respect: because the invasion went so badly, it's the best possible scenario of the invasion, and they're able to turn the tables on Putin. [01:45] DaemonFC Looks like Communism solved the "immigrant" problem by making the country so shitty that tens of thousands died trying to get out of their own country. [01:45] DaemonFC MinceR, ^ [01:45] XRevan86 Whether that's better than just having peace and spending no lives is up for debate. [01:45] DaemonFC By country, I mean Soviet satellite state that required subsidies. [01:45] activelow DaemonFC: and nowadays, there is no place remaining to take refuge [01:46] DaemonFC It collapsed with the USSR couldn't afford to subsidize it anymore.

[01:46] DaemonFC because, the exact same type of murderous criminals, control everything everywhere nowadays [01:46] MinceR 21 024419 < activelow> i can't grasp this, the propaganda bullshit, it was "Ukraine vs Russia" [01:46] XRevan86 tl;dr: Putin shot himself in the foot, and his bleeding foot benefits Ukraine. [01:46] activelow or it was abandoned after 1990? or USA ever was any different or better than east-germany? [01:47] MinceR yeah, it must be hard to grasp that russian forces moved into ukraine and killed people [01:47] DaemonFC Yes, I like my murderers to be from a diverse school of totalitarian hellhole political thought. [01:47] DaemonFC MinceR, ^ [01:47] DaemonFC Very refreshing, diversity. [01:47] MinceR maybe consume less russian propaganda and it will be easier to grasp then.

[19:33] DaemonFC The banks like them because it makes it look like you can afford more house than you really can. [19:33] DaemonFC Then 5 years later they throw you out, take the house, sue you, and sell it to someone else (probably at higher real estate values) and set up the same trap for them.

[21:35] MinceR lol [21:36] DaemonFC schestowitz, Wells Fargo got busted again. They were having fake job interviews for black people after they already knew they wouldn't hire them, so that they could claim that they were trying to hire some black people. [21:37] DaemonFC I'm sure this goes on at a lot of places. Walmart had fake interviews when I worked there. They had to interview you but they already knew who they'd give the job to before they did it. [21:38] DaemonFC Walmart gaslights their employees into thinking they have a job with a future, but the future is, at best, being stuck where you're at now and hoping that things don't get worse, for many people who work there. [21:38] DaemonFC The managers have already decided who is going places, and who isn't. [21:38] DaemonFC And once you are where you are, expect to stay put and get paltry raises that don't even amount to inflation adjustments. [21:40] DaemonFC They like to claim that almost all of their managers were promoted from within the company, but there's less than a dozen or so salaried managers at most stores, and up to 500 or 600 people who work in the store if it's a big one. [21:40] DaemonFC For most people they're going to be doing exactly what they are doing now unless they're a brown nose with an acceptable psychological profile, which the company already knows what that is. [21:41] DaemonFC So the "Walmart Cheer" is actually worse than the direct humiliation of being paid minimum wage while embarrassing yourself in front of the customers. [21:42] DaemonFC If you are still there in 20 years, it'll be stocking shelves assuming the robots haven't taken over. [21:43] DaemonFC When they want rid of you, that's easy too. To avoid paying your unemployment, all they have to do is show that they followed their own company policy, which is technically the same for everyone, but they overlook transgressions until they figure out who they want to fire, and then they don't get overlooked anymore. In fact, sometimes they can suddenly become aware of things that happened months ago. [21:43] DaemonFC And if they don't think they can build a good case to fire you, they start cutting your hours until you can't afford to work there anymore, and quit.

They're enraged by @TimothyDSnyder's latest article that correctly outlined Russia's fascist qualities, which is why they brought up @Yale." | nitter [21:44] XRevan86 Beautiful. [21:44] DaemonFC I survived a hit by the co-manager of the store. [21:45] DaemonFC She decided she wanted rid of me and cut my hours from 40 to 16 per week. [21:46] DaemonFC At that point I had nothing to lose, so I went over her head to the store manager and let loose and they gave me my hours back and forced the co-manager to pencil me in on the schedule until it was permanent again. So she went back and started trying to pencil me in for 6 hour shifts, and I said, "You know the store manager did say 8. I can go back and we can have another conversation if that'll help.". [21:46] DaemonFC So she scribbled it out again and started writing 8s. [21:46] DaemonFC I know it was a hit on me because nobody else lost a single hour. [21:47] DaemonFC So fake job interviews are just one of the things you get used to at Walmart. [21:49] DaemonFC I don't think companies mind hyperinflation so much. [21:50] DaemonFC They were complaining that $15 an hour was becoming the minimum wage in many states. [21:50] DaemonFC And now it doesn't buy much.
