[00:42]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, $18.60 for a movie ticket.
[00:42]	DaemonFC	LOL
[00:42]	DaemonFC	Holy shit.
[00:42]	DaemonFC	That's priceless.
[00:43]	DaemonFC	Still $5 on Tuesday though.
[00:43]	DaemonFC	I booked tickets in advance to a vaccine-required show next week.
[00:44]	DaemonFC	We're already vaccinated and the theaters they do this in have "social distancing requirements" so they rope off certain sections.
[00:45]	DaemonFC	I don't see a downside. Half as many seats means half as many people can bring their stupid whining kids and show up and sit next to you smoking marijuana. And those people probably aren't vaccinated anyway.
[00:46]	DaemonFC	It says a lot that they're doing this though. They apparently know that their customers are skittish and ticket sales were probably down, so they can implement "vaccine only" sections to try to drum up business.
[00:47]	DaemonFC	The side effect though is that it puts all of the unvaccinated people in the same theater where they can pass it around.
[00:48]	DaemonFC	NPR says 73% of US cases are now the Omicron variant.
[00:48]	DaemonFC	Yeah, the vaccine did exactly what I predicted.
[00:48]	DaemonFC	It selectively breeds resistance.
[00:48]	DaemonFC	The one that escapes the vaccine "wins".

[00:50]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, I suppose if you're going to be in a crowded movie theater, it's better to be in the vaccine section, but they still make you agree to a waiver that says if you get COVID there, it was your fault.
[00:53]	DaemonFC	https://www.npr.org/2021/12/20/1065979944/covid-royal-caribbean-symphony-of-the-seas-cruise-ship
[00:53]	TR Bot	 48 tested positive for COVID-19 on board Royal Caribbean cruise ship : NPR
[00:53]	DaemonFC	They all had to be vaccinated to get on the cruise ship.
[00:53]	DaemonFC	So obviously that went well.
[00:54]		*swaggboi (~swaggboi@slackware.uk/supporter/swaggboi) has joined #techrights
[00:55]	DaemonFC	MinceR, It amuses me that cough drops have to have a "drug facts" label on them.
[00:55]	DaemonFC	The only thing they really have in them that works against a cough or sore throat is menthol.
[00:56]	DaemonFC	It's basically impossible to use so many cough drops that it would have an adverse health effect.
[00:57]	DaemonFC	"The Miami Herald reports that at least one passenger had more significant symptoms. According to the newspaper, James Johnson of Orlando attested that his aunt "started feeling very ill with a sore throat and an ear ache and later developed a strong cough. After testing positive for COVID-19, Johnson said she only received an oxygen and temperature check and were told that medical staff was too overwhelmed to monitor her more closely.""
[00:57]	DaemonFC	That sounds like the Best Vacation Ever.
[00:57]	DaemonFC	I'm so glad I spent $5,000 on something stupid instead, like food or rent.
[00:58]	DaemonFC	""The cruise sailed with 95% of the onboard community fully vaccinated, and 98% of those who tested positive were fully vaccinated," according to Royal Caribbean. "

[01:14]	TR Bot	 Can You Overdose on Cough Drops? Learn About Menthol and Its Effects
[01:14]	DaemonFC	The directions on cough drops say use one every 2 hours.
[01:14]	DaemonFC	When I get a sore throat, it's usually one cough drop after another.
[01:16]	DaemonFC	"There has been one reportTrusted Source of a man who experienced serious symptoms after eating 2 entire bags of menthol cough drops every day for 20 years. "
[01:16]	DaemonFC	"Luckily, his symptoms disappeared after he stopped eating menthol cough drops."
[01:18]	DaemonFC	"Only one caseTrusted Source of death from menthol poisoning has ever been reported in the medical literature. In this case, the man overdosed by inhalation of menthol while he was cleaning a peppermint factory. There are no known cases of death from overdosing on menthol from cough drops."
[01:18]	DaemonFC	MinceR, A very refreshing way to go.
[01:19]	DaemonFC	When the doctors and the FDA are finished, we'll be lucky if you can buy a cough drop when you get sick.
[01:20]	MinceR	:>
[01:20]	DaemonFC	MinceR, He died. Cause of death? From the Hall of Medicine.
[01:20]	DaemonFC	*rimshot*
[01:20]	DaemonFC	*Halls
[01:23]	DaemonFC	MinceR, I don't know if they ever ran that commercial in Hungary.
[01:24]	DaemonFC	Halls cough drops. They had people in like, a sauna type thing with steam and they said "Sore throat and cough relief, from the Halls of Medicine!". Something like that.

[05:32]	DaemonFC	Some people call Vitamin C a wonder drug for colds, but you know, the studies say maybe shortens them 18% if you were already taking it.
[05:32]	DaemonFC	So it's cheap.
[05:33]	DaemonFC	Even if all it does is shorten them 18%, that's worth the cost of the pills.
[05:33]	schestowitz	DaemonFC: re "911", it's now "in the news"... that they fixed it
[05:33]	schestowitz	"THANK YOU, Microsoft!!!"
[05:33]	schestowitz	For saving us... from you
[05:33]	schestowitz	maybe next time Microsoft managers choke people they can phone the police
[05:34]	DaemonFC	Yeah, good thing I didn't have that on my phone when Austin was beating me up. I eventually gained the upper hand and was able to restrain him and call 911.
[05:34]	schestowitz	and not "sorry, you can't do that"
[05:34]	DaemonFC	They took me off to the hospital.
[05:35]	DaemonFC	Oh, it was an ungodly bill for an ambulance ride over to the hospital and a CT scan to see if he broke my nose.
[05:35]	DaemonFC	It was forgiven by the court though, so that's nice.

[06:00]	DaemonFC	I could never get in to talk to his last doctor except for one time when she laughed at me and told me I was wrong and refused to change his dosage on something, so I bought him a pill splitter and started cutting them in half.
[06:01]	DaemonFC	I kept an eye on his lipid panel, and at half the dosage, his side effects went away, but his cholesterol was well under control.
[06:02]	DaemonFC	Stupid idiot let it get down into the 80s, total cholesterol into the 80s, and then laughed at me when I said he was having aches and pains and memory problems and she goes "Oh, it doesn't do that!" and smiles.

[11:11]	DaemonFC	I saw a bunch of nice memes of her standing in front a Chicago skyline on fire while saying that though.
[11:12]	DaemonFC	Plenty of software that uses Mono.

[11:14]	schestowitz-TR	let's focus on mono
[11:14]	schestowitz-TR	it's more important
[11:14]	schestowitz-TR	I have lots more to show
[11:14]	DaemonFC	Yeah, instead of sending the people using them to prison, let's worry about the guns themselves, even though they've already gotten machine guns by robbing military trains.
[11:14]	schestowitz-TR	and very destructive quotes
[11:14]	DaemonFC	Let's enhance the racist anti-white narrative of them all walking over the state line.
[11:15]	schestowitz-TR	calling out racists is not racist
[11:15]	schestowitz-TR	anyway, back to tech
[11:15]	DaemonFC	In one case, the gangs in Chicago even got M-79 grenade launchers off a train to go along with their military grade assault rifles.
[11:16]	schestowitz-TR	DaemonFC: you needlessly irritate some people
[11:16]	DaemonFC	They get what they want. I mean, it's not rocket science that you get what you want.
[11:16]	schestowitz-TR	in a non-political channel
[11:16]	DaemonFC	Not having a FOID card for a year didn't stop me from buying a gun. I could have bought one if I wanted to. The law doesn't stop people from doing anything.
[11:17]	DaemonFC	If you happen to get caught with the gun after you murder someone with it, they can add a misdemeanor to your murder docket.
[11:17]	schestowitz-TR	DaemonFC: if you want to talk about crime
[11:17]	schestowitz-TR	talk about the mono context
[11:17]	schestowitz-TR	Alex was in the docket yesterday afternoon in TX
[11:18]	schestowitz-TR	leave aside trhe politics
[11:18]	schestowitz-TR	it's not a one-channel-cat5ch-all forum/channel
[11:18]	DaemonFC	Why don't they talk about felon with a firearm, which is already illegal. Very illegal.
[11:18]	schestowitz-TR	and crime in your town/state is off topic
[11:18]	DaemonFC	You know, most of those gang members, not their first rodeo.
[11:19]	DaemonFC	They don't want to talk about failed parenthood and the depravity of Democrat state politics.
[11:19]	DaemonFC	The leftists are just depraved and sick. I mean, Pritzker signed a Holocaust Expansion for Illinois in a state capitol with a shrine to Satan in it.
[11:20]	DaemonFC	A literal shrine to Satan just down the hall from where he signed the repeal of parental notification of abortions.
[11:21]	DaemonFC	You really can't make this up. So from the point of view of these people, "White people bad! White people baaad!" as they sign a genocide bill next to a Satanic Temple statue.
[11:21]	TR News	OK, finally they're canceling some events here. Our regime reckons it'll let the pot boil over until #xmas and then say "YAY! WE MADE IT! WELL DONE!" .... now go back home (lockdown). Strategy driven by self-serving PR stunts like "freedom day"... taking advantage of religious rituals now.

[11:26]	DaemonFC	Not the target audience for Pfizer's "solutions" that have us facing a wall of COVID that's the worst yet.
[11:26]	schestowitz-TR	this is talked about in #boycottnovell already
[11:26]	DaemonFC	They apparently think that ruining the economy that generates tax revenues for Social Security and Medicare is how they keep their Social Security and Medicare bennies coming in.
[11:27]	schestowitz-TR	[09:18] <Techrights-sec> The UK is going to have a major problem after Xmas + New Year since there
[11:27]	schestowitz-TR	[09:18] <Techrights-sec> are no precautions being taken.  I expect the US will hit 1M dead soon.
[11:27]	DaemonFC	We'll see how many of those old folks get by when those programs crash and burn because nobody young can get a decent job and pay taxes.
[11:27]	schestowitz-TR	talk about it in the other channels
[11:27]	schestowitz-TR	I'll respond there
[11:27]	schestowitz-TR	but here we need to focus on tech
[11:27]	schestowitz-TR	to keep s/n ratio under control
[11:28]	DaemonFC	The technology can't keep up with COVID.
[11:28]	DaemonFC	It wouldn't surprise me if those pills don't do much at all by the time Omicron is established and the pills are approved, if they ever did.
[11:29]	DaemonFC	Even getting rid of the safety protocols, we're still moving at the speed of government on this.
[11:29]	DaemonFC	They had the COVID vaccines developed more than 6 months before they went out. They already had a basic safety profile on them that was about as good as what they provided to the FDA when they DID finally go out.
[11:30]	DaemonFC	Trump was not happy that they didn't release the vaccine sooner. He wanted it as a pre-election thing. There would have been no way to tell they wouldn't end the pandemic while the voting was going on.
[11:30]	DaemonFC	He's a lot of things, but stupid isn't one of them. I wish people would stop calling him stupid.

[11:43]	DaemonFC	500 million isn't really that many tests.
[11:44]	DaemonFC	You can get signs and symptoms and test negative 4-5 times before you get a positive result during the course of one illness.
[11:45]	DaemonFC	Those lateral flow tests that apparently don't detect "Omicron" now were always twitchy.
[11:45]	DaemonFC	Elon Musk took 5 tests in a row on the same day and like 3 said negative and 2 said positive.
[11:46]	DaemonFC	The quick tests are probably leading to the spread of COVID by giving people lots of false negatives, and then they just get on the plane or go into the concert or whatever with their "results".

[17:04]	schestowitz-TR	cinema?
[17:04]	schestowitz-TR	all the things I don't need
[17:04]	activelow	traveling by train and tram
[17:04]	schestowitz-TR	in 2 years they will demand 8 doses
[17:04]	schestowitz-TR	then 9
[17:04]	schestowitz-TR	10...
[17:04]	schestowitz-TR	I want to first assess the efficacy
[17:04]	activelow	officially, traveling by train is not permitted anymore, without this crap, which requires a booster every 9month
[17:04]	schestowitz-TR	not companies commenting on their OWN products
[17:05]	schestowitz-TR	activelow: sounds like a violation
[17:05]	schestowitz-TR	it would not fly
[17:05]	schestowitz-TR	too much opposition

[17:05]	schestowitz-TR	nobody checks these things anywhere

[17:05]	schestowitz-TR	but it never happens
[17:05]	schestowitz-TR	it's a pressue tactisd
[17:06]	activelow	i haven't put this to test yet, if at all i could travel a 200 kilometers by train at least, officially it is not permitted with my status
[17:06]	schestowitz-TR	turn on the goddman TV, activelow
[17:06]	schestowitz-TR	they also lied about being unable to fly
[17:06]	schestowitz-TR	which turned out to be a lie
[17:06]	schestowitz-TR	or being unable to work
[17:06]	schestowitz-TR	activelow: nobody would enforce it
[17:06]	schestowitz-TR	they would not even ask you
[17:06]	activelow	officially working requires a "vaccination status" and/or daily testing
[17:07]	activelow	as said, i haven't put this to test yet
[17:07]	activelow	btw. the 4th (fourth!) vaccine scheduled for mandatory vaccination is prepared: after biontec, johnson, moderna next one is "novavax" to receive a "booster"
[17:08]	activelow	anyway

[18:07]	schestowitz-TR	I stopped driving and have not shopped for a car in 10 years
[18:07]	schestowitz-TR	so I don't know all the nasty bits in the cars sold in 2022
[18:08]	schestowitz-TR	the meters have become all electronic by now
[18:08]	schestowitz-TR	they won't last 20 years
[18:08]	schestowitz-TR	and repairing them would basically be swapping
[18:08]	MinceR	i bought a car ~2 years ago and it's better than anything else i've driven
[18:08]	schestowitz-TR	for a car 20 years old they would not have those parts manufactured anymore
[18:08]	MinceR	probably also better than anything i was a passenger in, too :>
[18:09]	schestowitz-TR	MinceR: do you have physical meters?
[18:09]	MinceR	also, i suspect analog gauges tend to be electronically driven too
[18:09]	schestowitz-TR	maybe in the past 20 years
[18:09]	MinceR	it has 2+2 analog gauges and a color LCD MID between them
[18:09]	schestowitz-TR	ok, so maybe still traditional
[18:09]	schestowitz-TR	infotainment is OK
[18:10]	schestowitz-TR	that's not connected to the rest
[18:10]	schestowitz-TR	though I heard in planes they changed this
[18:10]	MinceR	afaik the temperature gauges became electronically driven ages ago
[18:10]	MinceR	since the ideal temperature tends to vary and they don't want to scare drivers with that :>
[18:10]	schestowitz-TR	and now, as a passenger, you could leverage infotainment to take over the main computrer
[18:10]	schestowitz-TR	and crash the plane etc.
[18:10]	MinceR	probably not in mine
[18:10]	MinceR	the infotainment thing doesn't even seem to be connected to the MID
[18:11]	schestowitz-TR	I don'y get infotainment BS
[18:11]	schestowitz-TR	people have tablets and stuff
[18:11]	MinceR	i do get it
[18:11]	schestowitz-TR	in the car, infotainment cannot be detached
[18:11]	MinceR	since i've tried several methods of holding my phone in place for navigation and they all sucked
[18:11]	schestowitz-TR	so you pay for something only passengers would use, rarely
[18:11]	schestowitz-TR	they could instead make a docking bit
[18:11]	schestowitz-TR	with a charger
[18:12]	MinceR	i tried hooking into a grill and it tore the lamella out
[18:12]	MinceR	i tried sticking to the windshield with a suction cup with multiple phone holders and they all fell off

[19:18]	DaemonFC	Even after you convert it into USD, it saves you $42 over the next 3 years.
[19:19]	DaemonFC	Maybe more, if they decide to raise the price on us again.

[19:20]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, Apparently, Brita in the rest of the world is a different company. The Germans sold off the name to Clorox for the US a long time ago and then when they realized how big of a market there is for water filters here, they decided to sell to us too, but they couldn't use Brita because they sold it to Clorox here.
[19:21]	DaemonFC	So they called them Mavea, and nobody knew what Mavea was, so the company pulled back out and if you bought a Mavea system you can't buy filters for it anymore in the US.
[19:21]	DaemonFC	Clorox keeps tweaking their water filters to work a little better, and now they have design patents.
[19:22]	DaemonFC	So if you buy "Brita compatible" water filters, they fit, they work, but they're like the old Brita filters from 20 years ago that got clogged with air bubbles and made you tap the filter to get it going again.
[19:23]	DaemonFC	So I buy the name brand filters because they have a patent on how not to clog up with air bubbles.

[19:24]	DaemonFC	Jeremy Soule? Who's that? Right? :)
[19:25]	DaemonFC	After the "departure" they immediately removed all mention of him ever having worked there.
[19:25]	DaemonFC	And his social media went dark.
[19:25]	schestowitz-TR	do a post about this...
[19:25]	DaemonFC	Kind of like what happened recently at GitHub.
[19:25]	schestowitz-TR	as Microsoft/LF keep pushing us with that schtick
[19:25]	schestowitz-TR	as if FOSS=crime
[19:25]	schestowitz-TR	and Microsoft=ethics
[19:26]	DaemonFC	It's inappropriate to even try to start a relationship, consensual, with someone at work.
[19:26]	DaemonFC	If you break up you still have to see each other every day.
[19:26]	DaemonFC	But sexual assault at work, and that's you know, particularly disgusting, and with an "Or I call immigration and tell them your employment has ended." threat on top.
[19:27]	DaemonFC	Then, as a runner up, Soule also sent a video of himself masturbating to another woman in the office at Bethesda.
[19:28]	DaemonFC	So it's hardly as if it's only one accuser. When they start piling up, they can't all be lying.

[19:30]	schestowitz-TR	get blow jobs from women who work 'under' you
[19:30]	schestowitz-TR	then the company pays you MORE
[19:30]	schestowitz-TR	to do NOTHING
[19:30]	schestowitz-TR	and to keep quiet
[19:30]	schestowitz-TR	so people don't find out what you did
[19:30]	DaemonFC	Yeah, you get a "raise" and it's hush money.
[19:30]	DaemonFC	They have control over the payroll.
[19:30]	DaemonFC	They can just call it a merit raise.
[19:30]	DaemonFC	Seen it.
[19:31]	schestowitz-TR	outrageous
[19:31]	schestowitz-TR	many employees protested
[19:31]	schestowitz-TR	but stayed
[19:31]	schestowitz-TR	they stil work for the Gulag
[19:31]	DaemonFC	There was someone at Walmart of all places who was having sex with one of the assistant managers when I worked there.
[19:31]	schestowitz-TR	some of them put "social justice warriors" flairs in Reddit
[19:31]	DaemonFC	All of a sudden for no reason, she got a string of raises and was making 20% more than anyone else in the department.
[19:32]	IPFS	IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 7.36 k/sec., IPFS upstream 162.78 average k/sec., average swarm size 251.73
[19:32]	DaemonFC	Then he stopped giving out any evaluations above a 2 to anyone else, which is the minimum required to keep your job and not get written up, so payroll wouldn't go over.
[19:33]	DaemonFC	Then after one cycle of everyone getting a 2, we started all getting a 3 again.
[19:33]	DaemonFC	So we all had to skip an inflation adjustment to give our pay to the woman he was fucking.

[23:15]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, We're back to the peak number of COVID cases in Illinois, from BEFORE there was a vaccine out.
[23:15]	DaemonFC	November 15 2020 was the peak, and we're back.
[23:15]	DaemonFC	That was 2 weeks before they vaccinated the first person in Illinois.
[23:16]	DaemonFC	Now with most of the state fully vaccinated, we're back and ready to exceed the pre-vaccine peak.
[23:17]	DaemonFC	Over three times as many deaths on December 17 2020 vs December 17 2021 though.
[23:17]	DaemonFC	But that can't all be explained away by the vaccine.
[23:17]	DaemonFC	They know how to treat it better now if you end up in the hospital and they have drugs once you get there that can turn it around in a couple of days.
[23:18]	DaemonFC	They didn't have those last year.
[23:18]	DaemonFC	So people who get to the hospital now are less likely to die.
[23:18]	DaemonFC	Regeneron says they need to tweak their monoclonal antibodies for Omicron but they can do it in 100 days.
[23:19]	DaemonFC	So in a few months there will be new Regeneron antibodies out that are a good match for if you get sick with the Omicron variant.
[23:19]	DaemonFC	I'm not doing any more vaccines.
[23:19]	DaemonFC	Those were a bust.
[23:20]	DaemonFC	They might have gotten us through a very tough period where doctors just didn't have much to treat it with if you got sick, but even then, who knows.
[23:20]	DaemonFC	The vaccines haven't even been available to the general public for 9 months yet and they're already talking about a 4th dose.
[23:21]	DaemonFC	The more people just stand up and refuse to go along with this, the sooner they'll back down.
[23:22]	DaemonFC	If they'd have to fire 40% of their workers, they're not going to enforce any "mandates".
[23:23]	DaemonFC	If they start making Mandy get tested every week because he won't get a 4th vaccine dose, then we'll just have him get tested every week.

[23:23]	DaemonFC	If the government wants to keep wasting money on "free" tests, they can do that.
[23:24]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR, Contact tracing works on some things, like STDs and HIV.
[23:24]	DaemonFC	Because the average person who gets HIV doesn't give it to 15 people in the next two weeks.

[23:25]	DaemonFC	So if you can catch everyone in the community who has it and put them on HIV medication, the threat is neutralized.
[23:25]	DaemonFC	Even if you can only get two-thirds of them to be medication compliant, the R0 goes below 1 and the disease eventually burns itself out.
[23:25]	DaemonFC	The reason there is still an HIV/AIDS is because of drug patents.
[23:26]	cow_20012	groan
[23:26]	DaemonFC	If the meds were free for everyone who got it or was at high risk, it would be wiped out within a generation.
[23:26]	DaemonFC	They don't want it wiped out because they can get money for every new case.
[23:26]	DaemonFC	Lots and lots of money.
[23:27]	DaemonFC	The drugs alone for one person are $3,700 a month, coming from somewhere.
[23:27]	schestowitz-TR	like MinceR says,
[23:27]	schestowitz-TR	GAIDS FOundation
[23:27]	schestowitz-TR	they shill t heir patents
[23:27]	schestowitz-TR	then RMS links to that
[23:27]	schestowitz-TR	articles 'supported' by GAIDS FOundation
[23:27]	DaemonFC	RMS is extremely obtuse.
[23:27]	DaemonFC	I've come to notice that recently.
[23:27]	schestowitz-TR	calling for governments, i.e. taxpayers, to foot the bill for Bill's patents
[23:28]	DaemonFC	Like, he wouldn't even acknowledge that inflation hurts poor people.
[23:28]	DaemonFC	They don't pay their debts anyway because they can't.
[23:28]	DaemonFC	And even if the value of money was halved in a single year and didn't cause any economic hard to them by slashing the value of their savings and paychecks in half....
[23:28]		*psydroid4 (~psydroid@cqggrmwgu7gji.irc) has joined #techrights
[23:28]	DaemonFC	Half the debt they are in would still be impossible to pay.
[23:28]	DaemonFC	He just doesn't "get it".
[23:29]	DaemonFC	*hardship
[23:29]	schestowitz-TR	not all savers suffer
[23:29]	DaemonFC	You know, you take a guy working at Taco Bell.
[23:29]	DaemonFC	He makes $12 an hour, maybe.
[23:29]	schestowitz-TR	the oligarchs put it in wall street

[23:29]	schestowitz-TR	look! wall street UP!
[23:29]	DaemonFC	He got conned into getting a worthless degree in Humanities from Communists of Lake County.
[23:29]	schestowitz-TR	[22:22] <techrights-news> US government: OK, we'll take another 5 trillion dollars (taxpayers' debt), print some more money, then pass it to corporations and oligarchs, dubbing that "job creation". Then we'll pretend to NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE IS INFLATION.
[23:29]	DaemonFC	Uh oh, that was $60,000 at 6% interest!
[23:30]	DaemonFC	Then he gets shot in a botched robbery and has to go to the hospital. Whoopsie. There was $50,000 from the hospital for removing the bullets and $12,000 from the ambulance company.
[23:30]	DaemonFC	Because of Obamacare.
[23:30]	DaemonFC	The dude had no healthcare even though we were told it was the "Affordable" Care Act.
[23:31]	schestowitz-TR	anyway, back to tech
[23:31]	schestowitz-TR	I'll clean rss feeds..
[23:31]	DaemonFC	So now two things happened and he'll be in $200,000 dollars debt (with interest), and then there's the credit cards, and then his landlord evicts him and sues.
[23:31]	DaemonFC	But 7% inflation is going to help him tremendously, Roy!
[23:31]	DaemonFC	Stallman says so!
[23:31]	DaemonFC	He quoted the GAIDS Foundation Grauniad.
[23:32]	IPFS	IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 7.95 k/sec., IPFS upstream 165.26 average k/sec., average swarm size 251.66

[23:33]	DaemonFC	I told Stallman that inflation doesn't help people who can't pay their bills, only bankruptcy can do that.
[23:33]	DaemonFC	And if he wants to advocate for something, it should be a repeal of the 2005 Bankruptcy Reform and to go back to the 1978 Bankruptcy Act.
[23:33]	DaemonFC	The Democrats will never do it.
