●● IRC: #techrights @ FreeNode: Monday, January 25, 2021 ●● ● Jan 25 [00:00] DaemonFC[m] Weather will be nasty tomorrow. So we go to my backup plan on Tuesday. Take the Metra train to Chicago. [00:00] DaemonFC[m] New plan is to take the 7:12 AM train and just arrive in the city a few hours before our appointment to be safe. [00:04] *vZS1 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) [00:04] *vZS1 (~vZS1@host-92-20-231-81.as13285.net) has joined #techrights [00:08] DaemonFC[m] QBittorrent 4.3.3 raises the minimum macOS version to 10.14. [00:08] DaemonFC[m] Well that was fast. [00:08] schestowitz__ who uses macOS? [00:09] schestowitz__ DaemonFC[m]: good luck in the interview tomorrow. Calm down, you'll both be fine. [00:09] DaemonFC[m] Tuesday....another day of nailbiting. Thanks though. :/ [00:09] schestowitz__ psydroid: remote exams? [00:09] schestowitz__ 'exams' [00:10] schestowitz__ now they call webinars "conferences" [00:10] DaemonFC[m] The attorney says there's no chance they'd try to deport him. Just don't be nervous and answer their questions. [00:10] techrights-ipfs IPFS downstream, 60 mins: avg(k/sec) 29.05 IPFS upstream: avg(k/sec) 22.80 swarm size (avg): 254.59 [00:10] DaemonFC[m] schestowitz__: I calculated our estimated tax bill next year. No federal income tax again. [00:11] DaemonFC[m] The 2017 tax law basically is saving us about $750 per year at this rate, assuming nothing improves this year. [00:13] DaemonFC[m] The CBO projected that legalizing same-sex marriage would save the government about $14 billion over the first 10 years. [00:14] DaemonFC[m] But it doesn't always work out in their favor, just overall it does. [00:15] *vZS1 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) [00:15] psydroid schestowitz_, yes, with proctoring, so I need to keep a system around with Backdoors on it [00:15] DaemonFC[m] FUCK... [00:15] DaemonFC[m] Windows Explorer just crashed. [00:15] psydroid that's what it has always done [00:16] DaemonFC[m] It assigned the same drive letter to my USB stick as my external hard drive. [00:16] DaemonFC[m] When I told QBittorrent to save a file, the entire shell went down. [00:17] DaemonFC[m] How is this even possible? [00:17] MinceR microsoft programming practices [00:18] MinceR it's kind of like the kernel crashing when the shell tries to render the icon of a link, with the icon file name being something it can't handle [00:18] psydroid the best that they have [00:18] schestowitz__ :( my palm PDA is starting to act all weird [00:18] MinceR to call it a house of cards would be an insult to cards [00:18] schestowitz__ maybe outlasting the sanity of the circuitry [00:19] schestowitz__ i can barely use it [00:19] MinceR my palm PDA bricked itself when it was 13 months old [00:19] schestowitz__ :-) [00:19] schestowitz__ DaemonFC[m]: your attorney is correct [00:19] psydroid I should update it early tomorrow, because imagine if Backdoors went down for updates in the middle of the exam [00:19] MinceR 1 month after the warranty expired [00:19] schestowitz__ hard working, promoted, no criminal record... [00:19] schestowitz__ I think I can find tricks around the many issues with the PDA [00:19] schestowitz__ but it looks like it's definitely dying [00:20] schestowitz__ and it is barely usable now [00:20] schestowitz__ it still looks like new, I have two of the same model [00:20] DaemonFC[m] We make 2.5 times the required income to sponsor him. [00:21] DaemonFC[m] She asked me why I asked Maricel to sponsor him in the first place if I knew she was crazy. I said "Because they wouldn't even file it without that and I knew if I could keep her from going apeshit until he had his work permit we could get through without her.". [00:22] DaemonFC[m] She asked him why Maricel didn't sponsor him for a sibling Green Card. He said, "She said they wouldn't allow it." The attorney says, "Is Maricel a US citizen?". Mandy says "Yes.". She said, "Well your sister lied to you then. She could have. Your husband is right.". [00:23] DaemonFC[m] I told him the whole time she could have and she knew it and she was lying to him because she just didn't want to do it. [00:23] DaemonFC[m] It took the lawyer telling him the same thing for him to believe me. [00:25] schestowitz__ your mom sounds like a real a-hole [00:25] schestowitz__ no offence, I hope... [00:25] DaemonFC[m] She texted me this morning and told me she wasn't even going to go to Chicago with us because there would be snow tomorrow. [00:25] schestowitz__ and Maricel more so [00:25] schestowitz__ you're surrounded by snakes [00:25] schestowitz__ on both sides [00:25] schestowitz__ his and yours [00:26] DaemonFC[m] I wasn't even asking her to be a joint sponsor and trust us that Mandy wouldn't apply for welfare. [00:26] DaemonFC[m] I just said "Go with us so that at least someone's there if this goes terribly wrong.". [00:26] DaemonFC[m] Didn't even do that. [00:26] schestowitz__ meh [00:26] schestowitz__ anyway, it's offtopic tbh [00:27] *vZS1 (~vZS1@88-105-18-127.dynamic.dsl.as9105.com) has joined #techrights [00:27] DaemonFC[m] There's absolutely no incentive for us to apply for welfare. We don't qualify (too much money) and even if we did it would be a few bucks a month of whatever and it would ruin us when we came back in 2 years to apply for a permanent green card. [00:28] DaemonFC[m] I wouldn't even touch anything that's not on the list with a ten foot pole and neither will most immigrants these days. [00:29] DaemonFC[m] The US really doesn't have a welfare system, but it claims it's all paranoid and shit about protecting the welfare system it doesn't have from immigrants who are too afraid to go anywhere near what little remains. [00:29] schestowitz__ brb, tea break [00:30] DaemonFC[m] This is some fucked up shit, to be honest. [00:30] schestowitz__ let's change subject anywaty [00:30] DaemonFC[m] So how about that pandemic? LOL [00:31] DaemonFC[m] I was telling my mom last March that 600,000 Americans would be dead by the end of this March. [00:31] DaemonFC[m] Looks to be at least that many. She goes "Oh no, the president (Trump) says it's going to be gone by the end of summer.". [00:31] DaemonFC[m] Now she denies she ever said it. [00:32] DaemonFC[m] We have people listening to televangelists screaming "COVID GO AWAY IN JESUS NAME! I BLOW THE MIGHTY WIND OF GOD!" and obviously that worked. [00:32] DaemonFC[m] I posted it on Mastodon saying "Kenneth Copeland blows America." because it was just so surreal. [00:32] DaemonFC[m] That anyone would listen to these idiots.

[00:34] DaemonFC[m] Does it work? No. [00:34] DaemonFC[m] But more people do get COVID. [00:35] *asusbox has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)

Hard to when she's seen it kill several people that she knows, including one of her cousins. [00:36] DaemonFC[m] He finally died after like 37 days in the hospital on a ventilator. [00:37] DaemonFC[m] https://www.cnn.com/videos/media/2021/01/24/deborah-birx-trump-coronavirus-briefings-rs-vpx.cnn [00:37] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Dr. Birx: Trump presented graphs that I never made - CNN Video [00:43] schestowitz__ [00:31] I was telling my mom last March that 600,000 Americans would be dead by the end of this March. [00:43] schestowitz__ initial estimate almost a year ago is 2 million dead USians [00:43] schestowitz__ does not seem so far fetched now [00:44] schestowitz__ back then US had only about 100 casualties known to have contracted COVID [00:44] schestowitz__ mainly in areas like Seattle [00:44] DaemonFC[m] In the eventuality, sure. And I mentioned a million or two ultimate deaths last year too. [00:44] DaemonFC[m] I was dismissed a blowing things out of proportion by three members of my family who are all nurses. [00:44] schestowitz__ if you count "excess deaths", it's one million soon [00:44] schestowitz__ months from now [00:44] *vZS1 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) [00:45] DaemonFC[m] The IMHE model is still underestimating how bad things will get. They say 562,000 dead by May. [00:45] DaemonFC[m] It'll be there by middle to end of March. [00:46] DaemonFC[m] The winter acceleration was completely predictable. Flu and the endemic Coronaviruses we already knew about flared up every winter.

That was thwarted by someone buying them at auction and giving them to OIN. [04:12] DaemonFC[m] *troll firms [04:14] schestowitz__ added [04:14] DaemonFC[m] It's impossible to build a general purpose OS that doesn't contain some sort of advanced graphics API like OpenGL (or the newer Vulkan), and that was the point. Every "Linux" company needed to ship OpenGL or they would lose compatibility with everything from CAD and advanced graphics rendering software to video games, and even hardware-accelerated compositing window managers. The entire OS would effectively be ruined [04:16] DaemonFC[m] Stallman mentioned that it's dangerous to depend on things that you can't design around (in a post about MP3 20 years ago), but often by the time you need support for those things, they're already widely adopted, and it becomes a catch-22. [04:17] DaemonFC[m] I used to be terribly aggravated by PDFs because, before open source form-filling became possible, I'd have to treat them as static documents, print them out, and then fill out everything by hand.

[04:30] schestowitz__ with nukes all around china [04:30] schestowitz__ DaemonFC[m]: did it ever stop? [04:30] schestowitz__ the immigration thing? [04:30] schestowitz__ afaik, they rejected some immigrants based on that long ago [04:30] schestowitz__ like Erdos from Hungary [04:30] DaemonFC[m] It eased up. They ADDED an exclusionary question about being a Communist last October. [04:30] DaemonFC[m] It wasn't on the forms before. [04:30] schestowitz__ oh, I see [04:31] DaemonFC[m] Or as I like to call it, the hunt for reds October. [04:31] DaemonFC[m] ;) [04:32] DaemonFC[m] schestowitz__: The Communist Control Act was never off the books, but it's much easier to go after non-citizens with the sorts of activities it outlaws. [04:33] DaemonFC[m] For example, it says you can lose your citizenship, but the only people it would apply to are people who were naturalized, not citizens since birth. The Supreme Court ruled that you can't be stripped of US citizenship as punishment for a crime if you had citizenship at birth. [04:33] DaemonFC[m] So even after someone becomes an American citizen, there's things the government can do to them that it could never do to me. [04:34] DaemonFC[m] I'm not in favor of Communism, but they'll probably try to broaden what Communism is defined as. [04:34] DaemonFC[m] Until it encompasses anyone who isn't happy with what's going on now. [04:34] DaemonFC[m] They did it during McCarthyism. They can do it again. [04:36] DaemonFC[m] The Coronavirus outbreak gave racists an excuse to pin an infectious disease against an entire race of people. It's horrifying, pathetic, and a morally corrupt point of view, but it's expedient to politicians like Donald Trump. [04:37] DaemonFC[m] It's not going to subside as soon as Joe Biden issues his executive order this week that says that the United States cannot be lowered into violence and angry rhetoric against Asian people. [04:38] schestowitz__ I've just found a few more typos [04:38] schestowitz__ I think it's good to go now [04:39] DaemonFC[m] Most of the people out there who voted for Trump are still out there. They're in control of many state governments, like my home state of Indiana where Asian people were being told "Leave our hotel! We don't serve your kind here!". And just 5 years earlier, that was their sentiment about gays and it even had its moment in the sun when homophobes who said they wouldn't serve pizza to gay people set up a GoFundMe and [04:39] DaemonFC[m] grifted a half million dollars out of bigots and then closed the pizza shop and retired.

Be a story about Alabama. Nobody would be surprised.". [04:42] DaemonFC[m] Indiana used to be a fairly progressive state. It's lurched backwards to a point before 1964. [04:42] schestowitz__ why 1964? [04:45] DaemonFC[m] Illinois was the first state to repeal a sodomy law in 1962, and I remember reading that it came up for debate in Indiana in 1964. It didn't pass until 1976. [04:45] DaemonFC[m] Indiana at various points had the death penalty, serious prison time, then a stay in a state mental hospital, then it became an "It's on the books but it's not really enforced anymore.", followed by repeal. [04:46] DaemonFC[m] And in 2002, Texas and other states in the south were still trying to enforce theirs. [04:47] DaemonFC[m] But in 2002, I was actually over at my first ex's house and flipped on the TV and they were talking about the Lawrence v. Texas case. [04:47] DaemonFC[m] And I was stunned, because I couldn't grasp how being gay was illegal in a first world country, anywhere. [04:47] DaemonFC[m] Much less in 2002. [04:49] DaemonFC[m] Police would actually bait gay men into agreeing to go somewhere private and have sex, and then out came the handcuffs, apparently, in some of those states. [04:49] DaemonFC[m] The courts have been left in charge of clearing this whole mess away that no longer has the support of a majority of the American public. [04:50] DaemonFC[m] Because politicians are still generally too cowardly to propose changing their state laws. [04:50] DaemonFC[m] The fact that it ever was allowed, much less for hundreds of years, seriously undercuts the notion that our government is set up to prevent tyranny from the majority. [04:52] DaemonFC[m] In fact, with Trump the opposite happened. It foisted a tyrant onto us, with the support of a tyrannical minority that was lashing out because they realized that they were becoming outnumbered and less relevant.

[04:57] *wineroots has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [04:57] DaemonFC[m] Resentment politics is effective. It's exactly what Hitler did and it's been in the playbook ever since. [04:58] DaemonFC[m] Works in the UK too. There's a bad recession now and Boris Johnson should be glad that the Coronavirus is taking all the blame. [04:58] DaemonFC[m] He can blame it for everything that Brexit has done on top of the lockdowns. [04:59] DaemonFC[m] Pushing forward with that could not have come at a worse time. ● Jan 25 [05:00] DaemonFC[m] schestowitz__: CNN is reporting that Foreign Direct Investment in the US has plunged 49%.

Appropriately licensed game engines are also a rarity. The main programming language is Java. C#, C++ nor Brainfuck are used because Java provides platform neutrality guarantees, convenient concurrency, reflection and self-modification. The latter two are especially useful for developing complex mods. Java is also the language of Minecraft, which means [21:59] schestowitz__ that a large community of potentially interested capable developers already exists. And, well, yeah, Java is teamlead's favorite language, so there's that." [21:59] schestowitz__ "It is essential that the project is free and open-source.
