| DaemonFC | Not as much as driving back and forth to the store every time there's a sale. | Mar 26 00:05 |
|---|---|---|
| DaemonFC | The stores cycle through sales based on what their suppliers are charging them, so there is an element of unpredictability to it. | Mar 26 00:06 |
| DaemonFC | Plus with all of the "supply disruptions", I mean sometimes you can't buy cheese, sometimes it's butter, sometimes it's eggs. | Mar 26 00:07 |
| DaemonFC | I bought 60 eggs one day and then the next day there were no eggs. | Mar 26 00:07 |
| DaemonFC | I buy things in bulk anyway. | Mar 26 00:07 |

| DaemonFC | Buying in bulk does save more money than the freezer costs to run. | Mar 26 00:14 |
| DaemonFC | Aldi never really does have sales. They're not price-focused like they used to be. | Mar 26 00:14 |
| DaemonFC | Using coupons, sales, and credit card bonus category months at the supermarket can be much cheaper than Aldi. | Mar 26 00:15 |
| DaemonFC | Coupons aren't even really that time consuming anymore. Since most people don't use newspapers now, the manufacturers put coupons in the store's app. | Mar 26 00:15 |
| DaemonFC | Then you put in your phone number and they all come off your total. No clipping or forgetting to use one. | Mar 26 00:15 |

| matey | γchicksahoyγ β I buy bulk oatmeal and add my own flavouring to it, fuck those overpriced packages of flavoured oatmeal <- on top of this, the good flavours are rare. they stock mostly the disgusting ones youre tempted to throw away | Mar 26 03:34 |
| matey | they would be smart to sell them individually | Mar 26 03:34 |
| matey | this is why i do the same (buy plain and flavour it) | Mar 26 03:34 |

| matey | I am a flexible technologist with a penchant for GNU/Linux solutions but an uncanny ability to apply solutions across cloud vendors and technology stacks. | Mar 26 04:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | how long has it been there? | Mar 26 04:15 |
| matey | the point is hes an active github developer https://github.com/StylusEater?tab=repositories | Mar 26 04:16 |

| matey | keyword: active | Mar 26 04:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | could this be employed-related? | Mar 26 04:16 |
| matey | and you might think gnu developers (i dont even pay attention unless theyre project admin level) would | Mar 26 04:16 |
| matey | could this be employed-related? <- sure, but its under his name, not his employers | Mar 26 04:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's not a new issue | Mar 26 04:17 |
| matey | also it looks like he has his own | Mar 26 04:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | and predates 2018 | Mar 26 04:17 |
| matey | it's not a new issue <- no its not | Mar 26 04:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | what do you want to do about it? shame them in public? it would be an awful idea | Mar 26 04:17 |
| matey | and predates 2018 <- this is since | Mar 26 04:17 |
| schestowitz-TR | a lot of those recent projects aren't gnu | Mar 26 04:17 |
| matey | what do you want to do about it? shame them in public? <- if by "shame them in public" you mean point out the great disparity between hype about freedom from the fsf and the actual attitude of gnu project admins, then yes | Mar 26 04:18 |
| *DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Mar 26 04:18 | |
| schestowitz-TR | he works on many good projects | Mar 26 04:18 |
| matey | i want to point out the great disparity in priorities-- or as you put it, "shame them in public" | Mar 26 04:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | and their decision to use shithub may not be his decision at all | Mar 26 04:18 |
| matey | and their decision to use shithub may not be his decision at all <- it looks like he has his own company | Mar 26 04:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | matey: I think it's a well known problem btw | Mar 26 04:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | you already did many articles to expose the severity of the issue | Mar 26 04:19 |
| matey | if its a well known problem, we can talk about it without it being "shaming them in public" | Mar 26 04:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | without naming the developers, only the projects | Mar 26 04:19 |
| matey | fwiw i dont think they have any shame | Mar 26 04:19 |
| matey | im not trying to make them cry. | Mar 26 04:19 |
| schestowitz | in https://github.com/StylusEater?tab=repositories see the licences | Mar 26 04:19 |
| schestowitz | not reciprocal sometimes | Mar 26 04:20 |
| schestowitz | but not much gnu there | Mar 26 04:20 |
| matey | "i cry all the way to the bank"-- liberace (who was proud to be gay, which is great) | Mar 26 04:20 |
| matey | as proud as you can be while being (technically) closeted | Mar 26 04:20 |
| matey | in https://github.com/StylusEater?tab=repositories see the licence <- fair enough | Mar 26 04:20 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-StylusEater (Adam M Dutko) / Repositories Β· GitHub | Mar 26 04:20 | |
| schestowitz-TR | today I checked FSD (directory) | Mar 26 04:21 |
| matey | the licenses are what they are-- a mix of gpl and apache 2 and mit | Mar 26 04:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | I still see many github links there | Mar 26 04:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | too many to even be worth singling out projects | Mar 26 04:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | some of them predate Microsoft | Mar 26 04:22 |
| matey | im not singling out projects | Mar 26 04:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | which is a criminal org BTW | Mar 26 04:22 |
| matey | im pointing out one example of a trend | Mar 26 04:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | those who are in denial about it sided with the criminals | Mar 26 04:22 |
| matey | you try to mitigate this by saying its a trend actually | Mar 26 04:22 |
| matey | the fact that its a trend is my entire point in displaing an example | Mar 26 04:22 |
| matey | not to single it out, as you say | Mar 26 04:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | the upside is, i'm told it's all over the media already | Mar 26 04:22 |
| schestowitz-TR | so the idea that Microsoft isn't just the "M" in GAFAM but a lot worse than the rest might take hold | Mar 26 04:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | matey: here's an idea | Mar 26 04:23 |
| matey | lol | Mar 26 04:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | as you have some scripts lying about; can it be checked how many GNU projects moved TO GitHub after Microsoft took over? | Mar 26 04:23 |
| matey | and the "before 2018" thing is something ive already factored into my evaluations since more than a year ago | Mar 26 04:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | because I think that might be more damning | Mar 26 04:23 |
| matey | as you have some scripts lying about; can it be checked how many GNU projects moved TO GitHub after Microsoft took over? <- that really cant be scripted | Mar 26 04:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | knowing what is known now, choosing Microsoft for GNU hosting makes no sense | Mar 26 04:24 |
| matey | not if you want accuracy | Mar 26 04:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | gitea is nice | Mar 26 04:24 |

| schestowitz-TR | sounds like spy agency | Mar 26 04:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | smart_homeland: | Mar 26 04:28 |
| matey | people should be getting away from gitlab but its still a tiny step away which is-- a step away | Mar 26 04:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | gitlab has issues too | Mar 26 04:28 |
| matey | its not the best step to take at all, but its still technically better than the github monopoly | Mar 26 04:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | as you say | Mar 26 04:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | not sure you meant LAB | Mar 26 04:28 |
| matey | Enumerating objects: 11 <- i think its at least 20 | Mar 26 04:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | but they had an IPO last year IIRC and they should show actual commitment to Free software, not Bait Softare | Mar 26 04:29 |
| smart_homeland | security | Mar 26 04:29 |
| matey | no, gitlab is a step away from the github monopoly. its not the one i recommend | Mar 26 04:29 |
| matey | in the same way that by-nd is the smallest step you can take away from all rights reserved, and i never recommend it | Mar 26 04:29 |
| smart_homeland | just making sure you don't arm other nor yourselfs | Mar 26 04:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | I looked into gitlab a lot in recent years because we checked how to present git | Mar 26 04:30 |
| matey | gitlab is an awful mess | Mar 26 04:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | of course not anyone can get write permissions, so all those massive CMSes are an overkill and technical debt | Mar 26 04:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | same for mediagoblin | Mar 26 04:30 |
| matey | not too impressed with mattleeagoblin | Mar 26 04:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | an hour ago a friend of mine in his 90s broke his blog | Mar 26 04:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | I told him nnot to add plugins and update | Mar 26 04:31 |
| matey | anyway, i think you have this idea that i did this research in 2019 and since then ive been promoting it | Mar 26 04:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | he did both, apparently | Mar 26 04:31 |
| matey | its not like that at all | Mar 26 04:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | and without telling me, we had no recent backups | Mar 26 04:31 |
| matey | i keep revising and rechecking things | Mar 26 04:31 |
| matey | and i always took pre-2018 and post-2018 into account, because i knew it would be the first thing people said about it | Mar 26 04:31 |
| schestowitz-TR | wait, mattl isn't doing mediagoblin anymore | Mar 26 04:31 |
| matey | thats fine | Mar 26 04:32 |
| matey | but he was on it originally afaik | Mar 26 04:32 |
| schestowitz-TR | it used to be weber, not it's that aussie guy whose name I know from swpats activism in aussie | Mar 26 04:32 |
| matey | alright | Mar 26 04:32 |
| schestowitz | https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/mediagoblin.git/tree/ | Mar 26 04:32 |
| matey | but as you say bloat and technical debt | Mar 26 04:32 |

| matey | sure | Mar 26 04:32 |
| matey | lets fold in what you say about the web | Mar 26 04:32 |
| matey | can mediagoblin work without a browser? | Mar 26 04:33 |
| schestowitz | seems like Will Kahn-Greene started it over a decade ago | Mar 26 04:33 |
| schestowitz | Christopher Allan Webber then did it for 3 years | Mar 26 04:33 |
| matey | oh the lovely christopher allan webber | Mar 26 04:33 |
| schestowitz | then no activity for years, then Sturmfels steps in | Mar 26 04:33 |
| matey | thats worse than matt lee | Mar 26 04:33 |
| schestowitz | last release 6 months ago | Mar 26 04:33 |
| matey | so at least someone has picked up maintaining it | Mar 26 04:34 |

| schestowitz | I still use Palm PDA | Mar 26 04:36 |
| schestowitz | it's proprietrary | Mar 26 04:36 |
| matey | nobody is perfect <- implying that i believe i can hold anyone to a flawless standard | Mar 26 04:36 |
| matey | but thats not the point | Mar 26 04:36 |
| schestowitz | right | Mar 26 04:36 |
| schestowitz | I mentioned this yesterday | Mar 26 04:36 |
| matey | this isnt about perfection-- its about laying down | Mar 26 04:36 |

| schestowitz | [14:14] <techrights-news> RMS critics: FSF is a bunch hypocrites. They compromise and don't care about 100% free software. Same critics: RMS is too radical, he's not accepting proprietary software. Make up your minds, critics.... | Mar 26 04:37 |
| matey | oh? | Mar 26 04:37 |
| *swaggboi has quit (Quit: C-x C-c) | Mar 26 04:37 | |
| schestowitz | but, ok, let's lay things as they are | Mar 26 04:37 |
| schestowitz | 1980s are long gone | Mar 26 04:37 |
| schestowitz | and we now have more issues to address | Mar 26 04:37 |
| schestowitz | and more tools at hand, too | Mar 26 04:37 |
| matey | i paid closer attention in the late 90s and oughts | Mar 26 04:37 |
| schestowitz | the government is NOT on our side | Mar 26 04:38 |
| schestowitz | they will actively undermine us | Mar 26 04:38 |
| schestowitz | like, look the other way when criminals from Microsoft bribe officials | Mar 26 04:38 |
| schestowitz | the USG does not want Russia, for example, using GNU/Linux and its OWN chips | Mar 26 04:38 |
| matey | or anyone else for that matter | Mar 26 04:38 |
| matey | autonomy is the opposite of what tech companies want | Mar 26 04:38 |
| schestowitz | so we are, by design, in a position of disadvantage | Mar 26 04:38 |
| matey | and the way they deal with that is by insinuating themselves into our projects | Mar 26 04:39 |
| matey | just like they did with hippie movements in the 1960s | Mar 26 04:39 |
| schestowitz | yeah | Mar 26 04:39 |
| schestowitz | exactly | Mar 26 04:39 |
| schestowitz | the antiwar movement has many lessons here | Mar 26 04:39 |
| matey | and indeed the same thing happened with the marxists | Mar 26 04:39 |
| schestowitz | rather, how they were made a "fasgion statement" | Mar 26 04:39 |
| schestowitz | like "Open Source" | Mar 26 04:39 |
| schestowitz | "I'm open source, I have a github account" | Mar 26 04:40 |
| schestowitz | "I'm counterculture, I wear "funny" clothes" | Mar 26 04:40 |
| matey | stalin rooted out all the bolsheviks in a similar fashion | Mar 26 04:40 |
| matey | of course it wasnt hard to find them, they were victors of a revolution | Mar 26 04:40 |
| matey | yes, fake progress and trappings of progress are a common theme in history | Mar 26 04:40 |
| schestowitz | but let's pause on Russia for a moment | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | and get back to software | Mar 26 04:41 |
| matey | making into just a tredy fashion statement | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | we have to break down the goals | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | and split up the tasks | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | like, software patents | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | reverse-engineering is another | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | EFF has thrown in the towel | Mar 26 04:41 |
| matey | nobody is perfect | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | Mozilla is not Pentagon Valley | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | so they basically don't count anymore | Mar 26 04:41 |
| schestowitz | or barely | Mar 26 04:41 |
| matey | but yes, eff is crap | Mar 26 04:42 |
| matey | mozilla is crap | Mar 26 04:42 |
| schestowitz | it still has people like doctorow | Mar 26 04:42 |
| schestowitz | I think they use him as a decoy | Mar 26 04:42 |
| matey | doctorow is... alright i guess | Mar 26 04:42 |
| schestowitz | while cohn and her mates do their political activism, which has little to do with the EFF's original goals | Mar 26 04:42 |
| matey | ive read a lot of his books, ive looked at one of his non-fiction books and owned and read another | Mar 26 04:42 |
| schestowitz | he's OK, he's in good terms with me | Mar 26 04:43 |
| schestowitz | and with us, in TR | Mar 26 04:43 |
| matey | so is phipps | Mar 26 04:43 |
| schestowitz | EFF helps him get by (living/salary) | Mar 26 04:43 |
| schestowitz | so he can produce more books etc | Mar 26 04:43 |
| schestowitz | Phipps is barely visible anymore | Mar 26 04:43 |
| schestowitz | more he accepted his "retirement" | Mar 26 04:43 |
| schestowitz | OSI's founders too, and Michael Tiemann | Mar 26 04:43 |
| schestowitz | You never hear of Tiemann anymore | Mar 26 04:44 |
| schestowitz | I wonder if he's in IBM | Mar 26 04:44 |
| matey | back later | Mar 26 04:44 |
| *matey has quit (connection closed) | Mar 26 04:44 | |

| matey | schestowitz you said dutko <schestowitz-TR> he works on many good projects | Mar 26 06:15 |
| matey | can you think of one? | Mar 26 06:15 |
| matey | id love to know what the definition of a "good project" is these days, it shouldnt be too hard. but finding examples isnt easy | Mar 26 06:16 |
| matey | stallman did this great article around the time this chat started, 14 years ago: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/compromise.en.html | Mar 26 06:17 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.gnu.org | Avoiding Ruinous Compromises - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation | Mar 26 06:17 | |
| matey | ruinous compromise seems to be the name of the game these days | Mar 26 06:18 |
| matey | we can say "well there are so many new challenges"-- not sure what they has to do with voluntarily selling out | Mar 26 06:18 |
| matey | if youre really fighting for the user, when the opportunity to sell out comes along, its about as simple as saying "no" | Mar 26 06:19 |
| matey | you would expect the standards to be higher, closer to the gnu project | Mar 26 06:19 |
| matey | they are, occasionally | Mar 26 06:19 |
| matey | but maybe im just on an ideological crusade-- thats why i go and find other people who see the same thing happening-- and feel like theyre being sold out | Mar 26 06:20 |
| matey | maybe they still use a raspberry spy, but they have no delusions about the makers of the spy "fighting for their freedom" | Mar 26 06:21 |
| matey | they can even outline a way that-- yes, this sucks, but at least it is part of a strategy that is plausible and has real goals | Mar 26 06:21 |
| matey | the fsf cant do that, because they dont have one | Mar 26 06:22 |
| matey | and if they do, its big and secret (year after year) | Mar 26 06:22 |
| matey | we can ignore facts that are negative-- and speculate about the positive, in lieu of facts that give us any real reason to be optimistic | Mar 26 06:22 |
| matey | but the funniest thing of all is when people go back and forth from "yes its bad" to "oh itll be fine" "how?" "just will" | Mar 26 06:23 |
| matey | various mentions of good things to come with no concrete examples (because there hardly are any) | Mar 26 06:24 |
| matey | thats fine, its just not very convincing. it sort of flies in the face of everything we actually know | Mar 26 06:24 |
| matey | but then again, thats the point. | Mar 26 06:24 |
| matey | as if the reason some of us try so hard to show things the way they are isnt that we are tired of being lied to all the time. | Mar 26 06:25 |
| matey | all the time | Mar 26 06:25 |
| matey | the truth only comes out for five minutes, just to get plowed nicely back into the soil | Mar 26 06:26 |
| matey | so no matter how many bad examples there are (sort of like with climate change) you get handwavey bullshit as a retort | Mar 26 06:27 |
| matey | and its a double standard always | Mar 26 06:27 |
| matey | double standard of evidence | Mar 26 06:27 |
| schestowitz | [06:15] <matey> schestowitz you said dutko <schestowitz-TR> he works on many good projects | Mar 26 06:29 |
| schestowitz | I saw some projects that I know in there | Mar 26 06:29 |
| matey | /me looks | Mar 26 06:29 |
| matey | (again) | Mar 26 06:29 |
| matey | just so we are clear, those are all on github | Mar 26 06:29 |
| matey | 10 or 11 since 2018 | Mar 26 06:30 |
| matey | i see waterfox | Mar 26 06:30 |
| matey | there is actually ONE mozilla derivative that isnt developed on github | Mar 26 06:31 |
| matey | its the only one i recommend | Mar 26 06:31 |
| matey | along with moving away from the web (which is also a good idea) | Mar 26 06:31 |
| matey | its also the one that helps fight censorship by TRYING to route around it | Mar 26 06:32 |
| matey | but even though it actually does do something for freedom in real terms (and its free software, and it helps get mozilla off github) | Mar 26 06:33 |
| matey | it is held to a higher standard than all this random shit that-- well, whatever | Mar 26 06:33 |
| matey | i mean its arbitrary, theres no rhyme or reason or standards at work | Mar 26 06:33 |

| matey | several years ago, the fsf ceased to respond in an adaptive way to any new threats at all | Mar 26 13:44 |
| matey | they became an automated freedom system | Mar 26 13:44 |
| matey | if youd like a scripted answer about licenses, press 1 | Mar 26 13:45 |
| matey | if youd like to install gnu with linux as if all other kernels suddenly became irrelevant, press 2 | Mar 26 13:45 |
| matey | if youd like to hear another string of promises about how we are actually going to change and evolve next year, for real this time, press 3 | Mar 26 13:46 |
| matey | so for about 7 years, people have sworn that if we just stay on hold, we will get a live agent | Mar 26 13:46 |
| matey | i dont think they even care about users having freedom, i think they just like hold music | Mar 26 13:47 |
| matey | thank you for holding, your business is important to us. every year, when we ask you to become a member. | Mar 26 13:50 |
| matey | people find relief in being lied to. columbo would have made short work of these arseholes | Mar 26 13:58 |
| kingoffrance | columbo? | Mar 26 14:08 |
| *kingoffrance watches whoosh sound over all the young ppl | Mar 26 14:08 | |
| MinceR | :) | Mar 26 14:09 |
| matey | columbo has done very well in the binge-watching era | Mar 26 14:13 |
| matey | though to be fair, i have no numbers at all on age demographics :) | Mar 26 14:13 |
| matey | his wife was very big on star trek! | Mar 26 14:14 |
| matey | (janeway was also mrs. columbo) | Mar 26 14:14 |
| matey | young people know him as fred savages grandpa | Mar 26 14:14 |
| matey | i saw a 20 something in a burger place wearing an inigo montoya pin | Mar 26 14:15 |
| matey | one of the reasons that the fsf gets away with so much is that people dont put stories together | Mar 26 14:18 |
| matey | when they got free marketing representation, no one cared because it hadnt changed anything yet | Mar 26 14:18 |
| matey | then when they started becoming even more full of shit, nobody cared because the marketing consultation they got was in the past | Mar 26 14:19 |
| matey | if everything happens separately, and theres never any connection between events, theres literally no causal relationships and nothing to support any theory that things are bad-- everything is great! | Mar 26 14:19 |
| matey | of course if you give a shit about history (as if 3 years ago is "historical" yet) then theres cause for concern. but lets just ignore that. | Mar 26 14:21 |
| matey | i didnt even like history when i was in school, it was torturously boring. | Mar 26 14:21 |
| matey | no one said it was the ultimate weapon against bullshit. | Mar 26 14:21 |
| matey | they really should have | Mar 26 14:21 |
| matey | i learned that history was a weapon when i started using it against open source more than 10 years ago | Mar 26 14:22 |

| matey | thats why youre smarter than me | Mar 26 14:24 |
| psydruid | I always think of it as studying history in order to plan for the future | Mar 26 14:28 |
| *forkbombe has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) | Mar 26 14:29 | |
| matey | it helps with that too | Mar 26 14:29 |
| matey | i realised through using it the way i did, that history is more about the present and future than it is about the past | Mar 26 14:29 |
| matey | and again, schools should have mentioned that. then again, education is a low priority for schools | Mar 26 14:30 |
| matey | schools also ensure that teaching is a low priority for teachers | Mar 26 14:30 |
| matey | sometimes theyre allowed, and some of them know how | Mar 26 14:31 |
| matey | the internet provides so many opportunities for guerilla teaching | Mar 26 14:32 |
| matey | but just like with teaching jobs, you often have to be willing to move a lot | Mar 26 14:32 |
| activelow | matey> youre a single point of failure though | Mar 26 14:33 |
| activelow | what made you think this? | Mar 26 14:34 |
| matey | activelow: your work is only available locally | Mar 26 14:34 |
| matey | if there were other people working on it, and the work was public, it would not be a single point of failure | Mar 26 14:35 |
| matey | even if they were only assisting you | Mar 26 14:36 |
| activelow | the problem isn't i am working locally, problem is german bureaucratic apparatus kept strangling me | Mar 26 14:38 |
| matey | as i understand it, there are quite a few people living outside of germany and even the eu | Mar 26 14:39 |
| matey | if even one were to assist in your work, and keep it public, there would be no single point of failure | Mar 26 14:39 |
| activelow | problem isn't publication, problem is coordination of efforts, and ensuring I can live and work in peace | Mar 26 14:40 |
| matey | as far as i can tell, there is never a way to ensure working and living in peace | Mar 26 14:40 |
| matey | the world is at war with everyone (just not equally) | Mar 26 14:41 |
| activelow | anyway, sorry for interrupting, just wanted to clarify it is not me at fault, nor any other free software developer | Mar 26 14:41 |
| activelow | it is the corrupt german bureaucratic apparatus which is | Mar 26 14:41 |
| matey | oh i was stating it matter of factly | Mar 26 14:42 |
| matey | it doesnt have to be your fault | Mar 26 14:42 |
| matey | anymore than the sun rising in the morning | Mar 26 14:42 |
| activelow | btw. i did cirulate some minor patches to see what happens | Mar 26 14:44 |
| matey | its a start | Mar 26 14:45 |
| activelow | result being, looted again, nothing in return | Mar 26 14:45 |
| matey | but the best way to get patches accepted of course | Mar 26 14:45 |
| matey | is to maintain a project that accepts them | Mar 26 14:45 |
| matey | failing that you can do like microsoft and buy your way in, but-- no, neither of us could do that | Mar 26 14:46 |
| matey | basically everything in this article applies to the fsf, not just canonical http://techrights.org/2022/03/26/canonical-self-censorship/ | Mar 26 14:54 |
| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Canonical is Becoming Softer (Pro-Microsoft and Against Free Speech) | Techrights | Mar 26 14:54 | |
| matey | the difference is that canonical hasnt really stood for anything in at least 10 years | Mar 26 14:54 |
| matey | and with the fsf its 7 (but thats a cynical and pithy way of putting it, which glosses over at least a couple of exceptions) | Mar 26 14:55 |
| matey | so the fsf is still technically better than canonical, but you have to squint | Mar 26 14:56 |
| matey | the real difference is that we EXPECT the fsf to stand for more than canonical | Mar 26 14:56 |
| matey | and we should | Mar 26 14:56 |
| matey | "a post that I wanted to respond to in video form. Itβs harder to take videos out of context." yes its harder to sit through the video than read text | Mar 26 14:58 |
| matey | and then you have to transcribe it and provide timestamps | Mar 26 14:58 |
| matey | basically video is just more of a pain to work with | Mar 26 14:59 |

| matey | unless the image is jittery and theres loud beeping in the background | Mar 26 15:04 |
| matey | it really depends | Mar 26 15:04 |
| matey | above all, i love the title "Lessening Free Speech Is Not Ethics" | Mar 26 15:05 |
| matey | thats exactly what i said about the fsf boards new bs in 2022 | Mar 26 15:05 |
| matey | they are just putting a bunch of crap together and calling it "ethics" | Mar 26 15:06 |
| matey | ethical source, but kuhn says "no, dont put it in the license" | Mar 26 15:07 |
| matey | if you want to rebrand a lot of oppressive bullshit as "ethics" make it a POLICY, not license | Mar 26 15:07 |
| matey | then its-- still bullshit posing as ethics | Mar 26 15:07 |
| matey | but at least the license isnt worthless, and that is better than "ethical source" | Mar 26 15:08 |
| matey | seems like it isnt just the fsf and kuhn running with this theme | Mar 26 15:08 |
| matey | but thats not surprising. kuhn was speaking for the coup, and the coup is too smart to bother with a worthless license, when it can destroy projects more efficiently with (more) worthless policies. | Mar 26 15:09 |

| bnchs___ | boot sector protection? | Mar 26 15:59 |
| bnchs___ | never had that at all | Mar 26 16:00 |

| schestowitz | I got 9 screens now | Mar 26 16:24 |
| bnchs__ | fuck that shit | Mar 26 16:24 |
| matey | bnchs__ thats because their policy on firmware is different | Mar 26 16:24 |
| matey | they dont have a no-non-free-firmware policy | Mar 26 16:24 |
| bnchs__ | i was running it on a emulator btw | Mar 26 16:24 |
| matey | because it doesnt run on the computer | Mar 26 16:24 |

| matey | this is still regressive for debian | Mar 26 16:26 |
| matey | and devuan did it first | Mar 26 16:26 |
| matey | in fact centurian_dan said he would abandon work on the installer if it didnt include non-free drivers | Mar 26 16:27 |
| XRevan86 | Debian had this before systemd even existed. | Mar 26 16:27 |
| matey | <XRevan86> Debian had this before systemd even existed <- they had non-free drivers in the kernel until 6.0 | Mar 26 16:28 |

| matey | centurian_dan was in charge of the devuan installer | Mar 26 16:29 |
| matey | fsmithred took over live (from nobody, there was no live) | Mar 26 16:29 |
| matey | imo fsmithreds installer was better than the default one | Mar 26 16:29 |
| bnchs__ | oh | Mar 26 16:30 |
| matey | but the default one probably covered more options-- unconventional installs | Mar 26 16:30 |
| matey | or automated, or headless, etc | Mar 26 16:30 |
| matey | so devuan was non-free from day one, compared to debian | Mar 26 16:30 |

| matey | whenever he does his own work its good | Mar 26 16:33 |
| matey | when he leads something, he does it long-distance | Mar 26 16:33 |
| matey | and things go to hell | Mar 26 16:34 |
| matey | now he too uses github | Mar 26 16:34 |
| matey | moved a bunch of dyne stuff there | Mar 26 16:34 |
| matey | such a disappointment | Mar 26 16:34 |
| bnchs__ | so devuan is basically non-systemd and non-free version of debian | Mar 26 16:34 |
| bnchs__ | right? | Mar 26 16:34 |
| matey | thats what they claim | Mar 26 16:34 |
| matey | its like that, except lots of hype and fuckery | Mar 26 16:34 |
| matey | the fuckery is community level | Mar 26 16:35 |
| matey | technically speaking my only gripe is it doesnt work-- which means they fail at their mission | Mar 26 16:35 |
| matey | i wouldnt rely on devuan for anything | Mar 26 16:35 |

| matey | if you want devuan, use a derivative | Mar 26 16:35 |
| matey | thats been my advice for years | Mar 26 16:35 |
| matey | the best ever version of devuan came out in 2015 | Mar 26 16:35 |
| matey | it just worked | Mar 26 16:35 |
| matey | who knows if its their fault or debians, either way theyve failed imo | Mar 26 16:36 |
| matey | i was very impressed with gnuinos, but i used the 32bit version and i think it went 64 bit only or was simply abandoned | Mar 26 16:36 |

| matey | if roy was looking for a fully-free devuan he should have started there | Mar 26 16:37 |
| matey | maybe 6 years ago. | Mar 26 16:37 |
| matey | or, he could have used refracta, which moved the non-free drivers to the desktop where they were easy to delete | Mar 26 16:37 |
| bnchs__ | matey: wait what | Mar 26 16:38 |
| bnchs__ | move the non-free drivers to the desktop | Mar 26 16:38 |
| bnchs__ | thats genius | Mar 26 16:38 |
| matey | or, he could have used a derivative which removed those non-free drivers from the desktop (which is what mine did) | Mar 26 16:38 |
| matey | i also made a version of trisquel 8.5 that didnt have systemd as init | Mar 26 16:39 |
| matey | but that wouldnt work now, as upstart isnt in the repos anymore | Mar 26 16:39 |
| matey | so trisquel is pretty fucked imo | Mar 26 16:39 |
| bnchs__ | hmmm | Mar 26 16:40 |
| matey | the only fsf distro really addressing the problems of the past 7 years is hyperbola | Mar 26 16:40 |
| matey | theyre hardcore | Mar 26 16:40 |
| bnchs__ | best way is artix without non-free | Mar 26 16:40 |
| bnchs__ | = hyperbola or parabola | Mar 26 16:40 |
| matey | if i had a million dollars to give to either gnu or hyperbola, theres no question which i would choose | Mar 26 16:41 |
| matey | parabola uses systemd so thats useless to me | Mar 26 16:41 |
| matey | their blacklist is awesome-- its just missing one thing | Mar 26 16:41 |
| bnchs__ | matey: there's either systemd or openrc | Mar 26 16:41 |
| bnchs__ | it's not "uses" | Mar 26 16:41 |
| matey | oh well if they provide a choice thats nice | Mar 26 16:41 |
| bnchs__ | and besides both of them are supported | Mar 26 16:41 |
| bnchs__ | with a "nonsystemd" repo | Mar 26 16:41 |
| matey | i suppose then, if i wanted to make another trisquel-without-systemd demo | Mar 26 16:42 |
| matey | i could use parabola | Mar 26 16:42 |
| matey | but i really hate rolling release distros too | Mar 26 16:42 |
| matey | i mean i always tell myself "it wont be that bad" then later "its that bad, its that bad" | Mar 26 16:43 |
| matey | for me at least | Mar 26 16:43 |
| matey | parabola uses pacman, right? | Mar 26 16:43 |
| matey | or is there an option there, too | Mar 26 16:43 |
| bnchs__ | iirc parabola developer team has also maintained some program that aims to replace some of systemd's non-init crap | Mar 26 16:44 |
| bnchs__ | matey: it uses pacman | Mar 26 16:44 |
| matey | thats noble of them | Mar 26 16:44 |
| matey | ive pretty much given up on linux | Mar 26 16:44 |
| matey | but ive toyed with the idea of making a gnu linux distro specifically to advertise openbsd | Mar 26 16:44 |

| matey | though i honestly never know if theyre a dead project or not | Mar 26 16:45 |
| matey | theyre the only project in the entire fsf ecosystem i give a shit about | Mar 26 16:45 |
| matey | hyperbola is like the underappreciated girlfriend the fsf doesnt even deserve | Mar 26 16:46 |
| matey | they do pretty much everything the fsf would be doing if they still did their fucking job | Mar 26 16:47 |
| matey | and they get nothing | Mar 26 16:47 |
| bnchs__ | i think they still have hope | Mar 26 16:49 |
| matey | hyperbola or the fsf? | Mar 26 16:49 |
| bnchs__ | both | Mar 26 16:49 |
| matey | the fsf lacks either integrity or awareness | Mar 26 16:49 |
| matey | its had years to regain either | Mar 26 16:49 |
| matey | put another way, its had 20% of its entire existence to retain either | Mar 26 16:50 |
| matey | who are we kidding | Mar 26 16:50 |
| matey | 35 years, defunct for 7 | Mar 26 16:50 |
| bnchs__ | fsf performed better when it was rms being the president | Mar 26 16:50 |
| matey | yes and no | Mar 26 16:50 |
| matey | it hasnt improved 1% without him | Mar 26 16:51 |
| matey | thats for sure | Mar 26 16:51 |
| matey | but it floundered for years even with him | Mar 26 16:51 |
| matey | imo he checked out in 2011 | Mar 26 16:51 |
| matey | but not entirely-- after that he had less power | Mar 26 16:51 |
| matey | he would say something, some people would do it | Mar 26 16:51 |
| matey | others would ignore it | Mar 26 16:51 |

| bnchs__ | this doomtalk is making me bored | Mar 26 17:02 |
| matey | what do you think we should do with systemd? | Mar 26 17:02 |
| bnchs__ | matey: remove it? | Mar 26 17:02 |
| bnchs__ | uninstall it? | Mar 26 17:02 |
| matey | okay | Mar 26 17:02 |
| bnchs__ | not make it default? | Mar 26 17:03 |
| matey | right | Mar 26 17:03 |
| bnchs__ | give the users a choice? | Mar 26 17:03 |
| matey | this has been proposed and attempted | Mar 26 17:03 |
| matey | by no one more than devuan, who have struggled year after year to manage it | Mar 26 17:03 |
| matey | though perhaps parabola had more luck | Mar 26 17:04 |
| matey | i consider systemd a cyberweapon | Mar 26 17:04 |
| bnchs__ | matey: you haven't talked about gentoo | Mar 26 17:04 |
| bnchs__ | or alpine | Mar 26 17:04 |
| matey | it seems about as easy to remove as intel me | Mar 26 17:04 |
| bnchs__ | i scoured their websites/source code | Mar 26 17:04 |
| matey | gentoo uses elogind i believe | Mar 26 17:04 |
| bnchs__ | for openrc init script replacements | Mar 26 17:04 |
| matey | then after 7 years of removing system from gnu/linux | Mar 26 17:05 |
| schestowitz | writing lmde5 to usb now | Mar 26 17:05 |
| matey | the next bit of fun is removing rust from the kernel :) | Mar 26 17:05 |
| matey | theres a theme here | Mar 26 17:05 |
| bnchs__ | matey: i think you're confused | Mar 26 17:05 |
| bnchs__ | elogind is a project to seperate logind from systemd | Mar 26 17:06 |
| bnchs__ | to make it run on non-systemd installations | Mar 26 17:06 |
| activelow | that's how i manage gettys without an inittab of sysvinit: while true ; do /usr/bin/setsid -w /sbin/mingetty --nohostname tty2 ; sleep 1 ; done & | Mar 26 17:06 |
| matey | elogind is a project to seperate logind from systemd <- that would be a good idea, as a hard fork | Mar 26 17:07 |
| matey | is it a hard fork? | Mar 26 17:07 |
| matey | (there never seem to be any hard forks anymore) | Mar 26 17:07 |
| matey | devuan isnt a hard fork, they dont have that kind of manpower | Mar 26 17:07 |
| matey | (they never will, with their saboteur community leadership) | Mar 26 17:08 |
| matey | elogind should be easier to have as a hard fork than devuan | Mar 26 17:08 |
| matey | pale moon is a hard fork-- thats the only thing it has going for it | Mar 26 17:08 |
| activelow | mingetty spawns /bin/login; yet i do not like pluggable authentication made by IBM/RedHat, so i am still using shadow login | Mar 26 17:08 |
| bnchs__ | matey: well i don't know | Mar 26 17:09 |
| matey | bnchs__ this is what i got tired of from 2015 to 2020: | Mar 26 17:09 |
| matey | "the huns are attacking!" (no offense activelow) | Mar 26 17:10 |
| matey | "well okay, lets move next door" | Mar 26 17:10 |
| matey | "no, ive got a better idea, downstairs theres a flat no ones occupying, lets talk to the landlord" | Mar 26 17:10 |
| matey | "shoudlnt we get farther away?" | Mar 26 17:10 |
| matey | "no! theyre only attacking our flat!" | Mar 26 17:10 |
| matey | next year: "theyre attacking the whole town!" "oh shit, what should we do?" | Mar 26 17:10 |
| bnchs__ | move next door? | Mar 26 17:11 |
| matey | "lets move to the next town over" "no, ive got a better idea, theres a petrol station that no ones attacking, lets see if they have any space in the back" | Mar 26 17:11 |
| matey | its like theres a competition to see who can come up with the smallest, most temporary fix | Mar 26 17:11 |
| matey | i cant stand it | Mar 26 17:11 |
| matey | so i left gnu/linux after more than a decade | Mar 26 17:12 |
| matey | done | Mar 26 17:12 |
| bnchs__ | i don't get the metaphor, because here's the thing | Mar 26 17:12 |
| matey | the kernel is fucked. salvage gnu if you can. | Mar 26 17:12 |
| schestowitz | brave, linux mint, picks up everything on boot from usb (liveusb) | Mar 26 17:12 |
| bnchs__ | there's programs depending on the systemd hell API | Mar 26 17:12 |
| bnchs__ | how are you gonna | Mar 26 17:12 |
| bnchs__ | write it all | Mar 26 17:12 |
| bnchs__ | to not use systemd? | Mar 26 17:12 |
| matey | there's programs depending on the systemd hell API <- fuck them, use other programs. | Mar 26 17:13 |
| activelow | booting kernel with init=<initscript>... this points to a simple /etc/rc, mounting stuff, launch all daemons, and finally some gettys | Mar 26 17:13 |
| activelow | that's all | Mar 26 17:13 |
| bnchs__ | matey: well i guess that could work | Mar 26 17:13 |
| matey | theres programs depending on winapi | Mar 26 17:13 |
| bnchs__ | for now | Mar 26 17:13 |
| matey | ive used wine | Mar 26 17:13 |
| matey | but mostly... | Mar 26 17:13 |
| bnchs__ | if more programs use it (like rust) | Mar 26 17:13 |
| bnchs__ | it will get harder and harder | Mar 26 17:13 |
| bnchs__ | to the point that you're left with nothing but old programs | Mar 26 17:13 |
| activelow | millions of lines of code removed; too removed udevd, another attack vector gone | Mar 26 17:13 |
| matey | believe it or not, ive thought of this too | Mar 26 17:13 |
| matey | and there is a way to fight it | Mar 26 17:14 |
| matey | the real problem is | Mar 26 17:14 |
| matey | people dont want to fight. they want "peace" | Mar 26 17:14 |
| matey | they want compromise | Mar 26 17:14 |
| matey | they want occupation. | Mar 26 17:14 |
| matey | so instead of walking away from the mess | Mar 26 17:14 |

| bnchs__ | i do agree with you | Mar 26 17:15 |
| schestowitz-TR | wow, the installer is so simple, but I think it is just borrowed | Mar 26 17:15 |
| matey | XRevan86: public footage? | Mar 26 17:15 |
| bnchs__ | but i guess there is a way you can do this | Mar 26 17:16 |
| bnchs__ | fork programs and remove systemd shit? | Mar 26 17:16 |
| matey | no, fuck programs that have systemd shit | Mar 26 17:16 |
| matey | but forking is another option | Mar 26 17:16 |
| XRevan86 | Yet CNN et al. film the exact place where the explosion happened. | Mar 26 17:16 |
| XRevan86 | matey: Stuff shared on the Internet. | Mar 26 17:17 |
| matey | /me wonders which installer lmde uses | Mar 26 17:17 |
| bnchs__ | matey: remember, you would usually do that if it was proprietary | Mar 26 17:17 |
| XRevan86 | "look what happened where I live" | Mar 26 17:17 |
| bnchs__ | but the point of free software | Mar 26 17:17 |
| bnchs__ | is to fork it when it goes wrong | Mar 26 17:17 |
| matey | bnchs__>: this is my thesis: theyve brought proprietary processes to free software development | Mar 26 17:17 |
| matey | theyve simulated non-free | Mar 26 17:17 |
| matey | "free in license only" | Mar 26 17:17 |
| matey | or for an acronym thats begging to be overloaded: "formerly libre, openly sleazy software" | Mar 26 17:18 |
| bnchs__ | i mean look | Mar 26 17:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | the installer in mint advertises spotift | Mar 26 17:18 |
| bnchs__ | what so hard | Mar 26 17:18 |
| schestowitz-TR | but the rest of mostly freesw | Mar 26 17:18 |
| matey | oh lmde | Mar 26 17:18 |
| bnchs__ | about forking and modifying a program to not use systemd | Mar 26 17:18 |
| matey | linux mint debian edition | Mar 26 17:18 |
| bnchs__ | schestowitz-TR: please don't install linux mint | Mar 26 17:19 |
| matey | bnchs__ he cant hear you | Mar 26 17:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | i might change in a bit | Mar 26 17:19 |
| matey | /me figures lmde uses the debian installer | Mar 26 17:19 |
| bnchs__ | when i used linux mint, they were shipping very ancient versions of packages | Mar 26 17:19 |
| schestowitz-TR | ewww | Mar 26 17:19 |

| XRevan86 | Another explosion in LwΓ³w 10 minutes ago. | Mar 26 17:20 |
| matey | its possible they used calamares | Mar 26 17:20 |
| bnchs__ | in linux mint | Mar 26 17:20 |
| bnchs__ | because most of the packages in linux mint were so fucking outdated they lacked the features i needed | Mar 26 17:20 |
| XRevan86 | Maybe CNN will film that location too. | Mar 26 17:20 |
| matey | LMDE 3 installation with Calamares | Forum - Linux Mint Forums | Mar 26 17:20 |
| matey | calamares is a great idea-- distros dont need their own installers | Mar 26 17:21 |
| matey | github of course | Mar 26 17:21 |
| schestowitz-TR | stea, minecraft, sropbox, blender | Mar 26 17:21 |

| matey | "Calamares is used by Garuda Linux, Manjaro, Netrunner, KaOS, KDE neon, Lubuntu, Sabayon Linux, Chakra, EndeavourOS, Artix Linux, the Live medium of Debian..." | Mar 26 17:22 |

| schestowitz-TR | shows picture of windows | Mar 26 17:22 |
| bnchs__ | matey: what would you say about gentoo | Mar 26 17:22 |
| matey | im not qualified to say anything about gentoo, other than on their choices of components | Mar 26 17:22 |
| bnchs__ | they have USEFLAGS | Mar 26 17:22 |
| bnchs__ | which allow you to compile programs with or without wayland | Mar 26 17:23 |
| bnchs__ | or systemd | Mar 26 17:23 |
| matey | thats a good idea | Mar 26 17:23 |
| bnchs__ | or any libraries | Mar 26 17:23 |
| matey | i never indented code or used 3rd party libraries until i learned python | Mar 26 17:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | if putin lobs a missile over here right now, it'd be shame | Mar 26 17:23 |

| schestowitz-TR | sounds like biden and little putin are doing www3 as proxy war | Mar 26 17:23 |

| bnchs__ | with their spying smartphones | Mar 26 17:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | why say spying smartphone | Mar 26 17:25 |
| matey | /me isnt sure lmde still uses calamares but it seems likely enough | Mar 26 17:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | just say smnartphone :-) | Mar 26 17:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's impled ;-) | Mar 26 17:25 |
| bnchs__ | because the phones are acting as russian spies | Mar 26 17:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | call them what RMS did | Mar 26 17:25 |
| matey | russian spies are the worst kind | Mar 26 17:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | "Stalin's dream" | Mar 26 17:25 |
| bnchs__ | or spies for anyone that know how to control them | Mar 26 17:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | but RMS might need to change the speeches now | Mar 26 17:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | to "Putin's Dream" | Mar 26 17:25 |
| matey | canadian spies just burn down the white house and maybe ask you for a cigarette | Mar 26 17:25 |
| matey | russian ones will fuck you up | Mar 26 17:26 |
| matey | mexican spies are mostly interested in scoping out job opportunities | Mar 26 17:26 |
| matey | british spies just want to kill a couple russian spies and then do cool things with a parachute | Mar 26 17:26 |
| matey | russian spies are the ones you have to be careful with | Mar 26 17:27 |
| bnchs__ | now they don't need to send out spies | Mar 26 17:27 |
| bnchs__ | they can just control the "smart"phones in a specific country | Mar 26 17:27 |

| matey | i mean it might come down to that, it just wouldnt be so simple | Mar 26 17:40 |
| activelow | few days ago Biddler begged Venezuela to provide USA with Oil... | Mar 26 17:40 |
| matey | germany doest a lot of deals with putler too | Mar 26 17:40 |
| matey | obviously those deals arent good enough to keep german energy prices affordable, but i dont know if thats putlers fault | Mar 26 17:41 |
| matey | Biddler <- biden is many bad things, i dont think hitler is one of them | Mar 26 17:41 |
| schestowitz-TR | yeah, a weird analogy | Mar 26 17:42 |
| matey | hes more of a mobster than a dictator | Mar 26 17:42 |
| matey | yeah, a weird analogy <- purely reactionary to "putler" | Mar 26 17:42 |
| matey | "hes not hitler, YOU ARE" | Mar 26 17:42 |
| matey | with putin there are some commonalities | Mar 26 17:42 |
| activelow | it wasn't Russia at fault, no. it is excess taxation and trade-margins which exploded, and excess consumption; it wasn't incresing energy prices (those didn't change significantly) | Mar 26 17:42 |
| matey | though really, putin is closer to "biddler" than biden is-- in that hes a bit like hitler in some ways | Mar 26 17:43 |
| matey | and really a bit more like biden in others | Mar 26 17:43 |
| matey | a mobster | Mar 26 17:43 |
| activelow | besides, USA energy consumption is twice as much per inhabitant in comparison to Germany | Mar 26 17:43 |
| matey | id say of the three, putin is most like stalin | Mar 26 17:43 |
| matey | but thats no fun-- putinin? | Mar 26 17:43 |
| matey | putlin? | Mar 26 17:43 |
| matey | putlin works | Mar 26 17:43 |
| matey | putlin is probably more accurate than putler, but im not complaining | Mar 26 17:44 |
| activelow | it wasn't Putin who stationed ballistic missiles close to the borders of USA | Mar 26 17:44 |
| matey | i thought that was cuba | Mar 26 17:44 |
| activelow | it is USA/NATO etc. who supplied Ukraine with "lethal aid", following the strategy paper of RAND Corp. | Mar 26 17:44 |
| matey | it is USA/NATO etc. who supplied Ukraine with "lethal aid" <- well they are being invaded | Mar 26 17:45 |
| matey | what did putin expect them to do, just sit there and die? | Mar 26 17:45 |
| matey | "that would be nice, yes if you dont mind" | Mar 26 17:45 |
| activelow | Russian military secured nuclear facilities first, with light armored vehicles, which were shot at with NATO weapons | Mar 26 17:46 |
| activelow | next escalation was heavy tanks destroyed | Mar 26 17:46 |
| matey | how many museums does he have targeted? | Mar 26 17:46 |
| activelow | and currently, it seems, Russian Air Force began to take action | Mar 26 17:46 |
| activelow | Biddler could have explained, what Westinghouse electric did, in Ukraine nuclear facilities | Mar 26 17:47 |
| activelow | i am curious, still, what they did in Ukraine. | Mar 26 17:47 |
| matey | /me cant help picturing the batman villian with the similar name | Mar 26 17:48 |
| matey | of course biden could easily play that role, especially the 1966 version | Mar 26 17:48 |
| matey | if jim carrey gets a bit older (as hes likely to) he could even play biden himself | Mar 26 17:48 |

| matey | people could just stop using operating systems with such a penchant for fuckery | Mar 26 18:24 |
| MinceR | they want fewer clients | Mar 26 18:24 |
| DaemonFC | Even in the most heavily Republican ares of the country, you're telling 30% or so of your potential customers "Don't go there. Don't buy things from them.". | Mar 26 18:24 |
| bnchs__ | polkit literally uses a javascript interpreter | Mar 26 18:24 |
| matey | lol | Mar 26 18:24 |
| bnchs__ | and it's job is to GRANT ROOT ACCESS | Mar 26 18:25 |

| DaemonFC | I didn't like John McCain the politician, but the guy actually was in the Air Force and was shot down and was a POW and got tortured. And if you're going to attack someone's politics, that's fine, those are fair game, but you don't attack someone who got shot down and tortured by the enemy and say, like Trump did, "He's a loser. I like people who didn't get captured.". Well, Trump didn't get captured or wounded in Vietnam because he's a coward | Mar 26 18:31 |

| DaemonFC | Adulterer.... Serial bankrupt.... Lots of stuff really. | Mar 26 18:32 |
| DaemonFC | The bankruptcy code is full of truck sized holes, for the rich to abuse, and he was boasting about abusing them as a business strategy. | Mar 26 18:33 |
| DaemonFC | They "reformed" personal bankruptcy to turn it into a welfare program with a means test, and you have to sit through hours of garbage where they blame you for going broke, with reasons that 90% of people don't even file for primarily. | Mar 26 18:34 |

| DaemonFC | *it | Mar 26 18:35 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, They actually enforce you sitting through this for 3 hours with a javascript timer. | Mar 26 18:35 |
| DaemonFC | You can bring up the console and put in a javascript command that increments the counter to the number of seconds in three hours and then print out your certificate and send it to the bankruptcy court. | Mar 26 18:36 |

| DaemonFC | "Or you could assign me that part time job code for the other department and bring me back up to 40 hours." | Mar 26 18:48 |

| DaemonFC | Overall, your grocery bill will have almost doubled on average since 2004 in the United States. | Mar 26 19:50 |
| DaemonFC | So doubled over 18 years. | Mar 26 19:50 |
| DaemonFC | Rents have gone up by about a third in some parts of the country. Doubled or tripled in others. | Mar 26 19:51 |
| DaemonFC | It's on fire in all of the worst places in the country you could possibly live. | Mar 26 19:51 |
| activelow | in east-germany two currenc-reforms were necessary since 1990, which doubled the price in 15 years, round about | Mar 26 19:51 |
| activelow | that's how i estimated the _real_ inflation data | Mar 26 19:51 |
| DaemonFC | Like, the rent has doubled in the past 5 years in the shithole neighborhoods in Chicago where you'll be shot for your shoelaces. | Mar 26 19:52 |
| DaemonFC | Yes, they'll never tell you the truth. | Mar 26 19:52 |
| DaemonFC | But it's always easy to see that it's not "2 or 3%" like they were saying for about 20 years before this mess. | Mar 26 19:53 |
| DaemonFC | They have fake inflation numbers for a lot of reasons. | Mar 26 19:53 |
| DaemonFC | 1. It keeps social program and welfare expenses down. | Mar 26 19:53 |
| activelow | the rents exploded, in east-germany an entire flat (60square meters) could be rented for ~60East-mark; which is 15Euros... | Mar 26 19:53 |
| DaemonFC | 2. They use a different measure of inflation that nobody will notice to justify raising your tax brackets. | Mar 26 19:54 |
| activelow | nowadays, with those 15Euros in many places you couldn't rent a single square meter anymore... | Mar 26 19:54 |
| DaemonFC | 3. If people knew it was at least double what the government admits, they'd riot. They'd pull politicians out of their offices and murder them. | Mar 26 19:54 |
| DaemonFC | There wouldn't be any of this "Hey look, it's football! Did you know Kanye West called Trevor Noah a Koon?". | Mar 26 19:54 |
| DaemonFC | Media circus. | Mar 26 19:54 |
| activelow | yes, normally social spendings had to compensate for inflation; yet if they cheat with the inflation data then those spendings do not increase as they should | Mar 26 19:55 |
| DaemonFC | They didn't change the name of the Consumer Price Index. | Mar 26 19:55 |
| DaemonFC | They just changed the weight around so that it doesn't accurately reflect what people are buying. | Mar 26 19:56 |
| DaemonFC | Then they can weight the basket wrong so if used cars go up a bunch, they can talk about clothes at the thrift store. | Mar 26 19:56 |
| activelow | anyway, the most conerning problem is what those politicians call "labor market" here, which I would say is slave trade, looting and robbery... by government | Mar 26 19:56 |
| DaemonFC | They also introduced "hedonic regression" bullshit. | Mar 26 19:56 |
| DaemonFC | Basically, it allows the standard of living to backslide by assuming people will make different choices to respond to inflation. | Mar 26 19:57 |
| DaemonFC | Beef is up a lot? Buy chicken. Chicken goes up, but turkey doesn't? Maybe you buy that. | Mar 26 19:57 |
| DaemonFC | Of course the model is having trouble hiding grocery prices now. | Mar 26 19:57 |
| DaemonFC | It's all up, big time. | Mar 26 19:57 |
| DaemonFC | All of this fuckery with inflation goes back about 40 years. | Mar 26 19:58 |
| DaemonFC | It was Alan Greenspan. | Mar 26 19:58 |
| activelow | it isn't the absolute prices yet which are concerning, it's the trend of annual inflation, the _real_ inflation data | Mar 26 19:58 |
| chicksahoy | you could buy beans, they're high in protein | Mar 26 19:59 |
| DaemonFC | Fortunately, the 1970s solution to grocery inflation still works on the same concept. | Mar 26 19:59 |
| chicksahoy | i buy a lot of rice and beans | Mar 26 19:59 |
| bnchs | can you really quit meth without permanent damage? | Mar 26 19:59 |
| DaemonFC | They had high meat inflation in the 1970s and that's when slow cookers came out as a fad appliance. | Mar 26 19:59 |
| DaemonFC | But they're back. | Mar 26 19:59 |
| chicksahoy | i lost 35 pounds eating nothing but oatmeal, rice and beans | Mar 26 19:59 |
| DaemonFC | If you get cheaper cuts of meat and toss them in that thing on low, it tenderizes it as a side effect of cooking it that way. | Mar 26 20:00 |
| activelow | chicksahoy: where are you living? | Mar 26 20:00 |
| chicksahoy | i gained it all back by adding chicken burgers, pizza and pop | Mar 26 20:00 |
| chicksahoy | activelow: canada | Mar 26 20:00 |
| DaemonFC | Those butterball turkey burgers aren't bad. | Mar 26 20:01 |
| bnchs | rly | Mar 26 20:01 |
| DaemonFC | Of course I haven't bought any in a while. | Mar 26 20:01 |
| bnchs | you gained it all back just from how many days of "chicken burgers, pizza and pop" | Mar 26 20:01 |
| DaemonFC | Somehow, Jewel put out "85/15 pub burgers" for $6 for 2 pounds yesterday. | Mar 26 20:01 |
| chicksahoy | bnchs: it took a couple months | Mar 26 20:01 |
| DaemonFC | So I bought a bunch and froze it, because it was cheaper than buying it as ground beef! | Mar 26 20:01 |
| chicksahoy | plus my anti psychotic medication slows down my metabolism | Mar 26 20:01 |
| bnchs | i don't know | Mar 26 20:01 |
| bnchs | i could be eating that for a couple years | Mar 26 20:02 |
| DaemonFC | And if I need to make a ground beef recipe, I could just break up the burgers and brown them like any other ground beef. :/ | Mar 26 20:02 |
| bnchs | and i wouldn't gain even a pound | Mar 26 20:02 |
| chicksahoy | im trying to get thin again for bikini weather | Mar 26 20:02 |
| chicksahoy | so for the next few months im just going to be eating rice, beans and oatmeal again | Mar 26 20:02 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz was shocked I started blood pressure meds this week. | Mar 26 20:03 |
| DaemonFC | I made it longer without them than anyone in my family has. | Mar 26 20:03 |
| chicksahoy | im on welfare so i cant afford a lot of food, i just get oatmeal and rice in bulk | Mar 26 20:03 |
| DaemonFC | Most of us are on them by 30. | Mar 26 20:03 |
| DaemonFC | I made it another 8 years. | Mar 26 20:03 |
| chicksahoy | im so poor i'd actually consider doing tech support for a windows based business | Mar 26 20:04 |
| DaemonFC | It's better to keep it under control even if it does mean pills, than letting it damage your arteries, heart, kidneys, and eyes. | Mar 26 20:04 |
| DaemonFC | My mom's blood pressure is so bad that sometimes they can barely control it even on the highest dose of medication they can give her. | Mar 26 20:04 |
| chicksahoy | hell i am even applying for retail technician jobs | Mar 26 20:05 |
| DaemonFC | Of course, what kind of treatment you get depends on the doctor. | Mar 26 20:05 |
| DaemonFC | Like all people, they get stuck on something and never come off it even when better drugs are on the market. | Mar 26 20:05 |
| DaemonFC | So they had her on an older variant of the pills I'm on, which had a much worse side effect profile, even though the patent expired on the one I take in 2017 and they both cost roughly the same now. | Mar 26 20:06 |

| bnchs | egghhhhh | Mar 26 20:09 |
| bnchs | just imagining that gives me pain in the balls | Mar 26 20:09 |
| DaemonFC | I know. | Mar 26 20:09 |
| DaemonFC | EUNUCHS jokes. | Mar 26 20:09 |
| chicksahoy | when i had my surgery there was a transgender man who got balls and a penis | Mar 26 20:10 |
| chicksahoy | the balls were a pump, you squeeze them to make the penis hard | Mar 26 20:10 |
| bnchs | chicksahoy, FtM or MtF | Mar 26 20:10 |
| chicksahoy | FtM | Mar 26 20:10 |
| bnchs | "the balls were a pump" | Mar 26 20:10 |
| chicksahoy | yeah it was unreal | Mar 26 20:10 |
| bnchs | in the real implementation of a man body, squeezing your balls would only give you extreme pain | Mar 26 20:11 |
| chicksahoy | yes i know | Mar 26 20:11 |
| chicksahoy | i feel pain just thinking about it | Mar 26 20:11 |
| chicksahoy | they take skin off your arm to make the penis | Mar 26 20:12 |
| chicksahoy | its like an 8 hour surgery | Mar 26 20:12 |
| chicksahoy | FtM's have it the worst | Mar 26 20:12 |
| bnchs | i wonder how do they pee | Mar 26 20:12 |
| chicksahoy | probably through the penis | Mar 26 20:13 |
| bnchs | wait how does that work | Mar 26 20:13 |
| chicksahoy | surgery is amazingly realistic | Mar 26 20:13 |
| DaemonFC | There's nothing natural about this. | Mar 26 20:14 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 26 20:14 |
| chicksahoy | i had to learn how to pee with a neovagina | Mar 26 20:14 |
| bnchs | there's nothing natural about transgender surgeries at all | Mar 26 20:14 |
| chicksahoy | at first it sprayed all over the place because of inflamation | Mar 26 20:14 |
| DaemonFC | mjg59_ says I "misgender" people who have to go through hours and hours of plastic surgery. | Mar 26 20:14 |
| DaemonFC | Plastic surgeons are okay if you were in a car accident or got set on fire or something. | Mar 26 20:15 |
| bnchs | sometimes i do what they say "manspreading" when i'm sitting so i don't touch my balls at all | Mar 26 20:15 |
| DaemonFC | But it's mostly transexuals and vain women who use them the most. | Mar 26 20:15 |
| DaemonFC | <bnchs> sometimes i do what they say "manspreading" when i'm sitting so i don't touch my balls at all | Mar 26 20:15 |
| chicksahoy | DaemonFC: i've seen you say "man in a dress" | Mar 26 20:15 |
| DaemonFC | When people in Chicago started bitching about manspreading on the public transit, I started doing it deliberately. | Mar 26 20:15 |
| chicksahoy | lol | Mar 26 20:15 |
| chicksahoy | i still manspread sometimes out of habit | Mar 26 20:16 |
| chicksahoy | i guess i can call it vaginaspreading | Mar 26 20:16 |
| DaemonFC | "There you go boys, have some more real estate. Cool yourselves off. Have a drink." | Mar 26 20:16 |
| MinceR | "manspreading" is an instinct to ensure lower temperature for the testes, which is necessary for their function | Mar 26 20:16 |
| MinceR | but it's not like a crybully would understand that | Mar 26 20:16 |
| DaemonFC | It's not my fault they try to cram you into less space than you get in a Geo Metro. | Mar 26 20:16 |
| DaemonFC | Then they complain that one of your legs is out in the aisle. | Mar 26 20:17 |
| *psydroid8 (~psydroid@xg2evud9qdris.irc) has joined #techrights | Mar 26 20:17 | |
| chicksahoy | there isn't a lot of room on public transit to manspread | Mar 26 20:17 |
| DaemonFC | Clearly designed by women politicians, and the only thing worse than women politicians. | Mar 26 20:17 |
| DaemonFC | Male politicians trying to get votes from women. | Mar 26 20:17 |
| DaemonFC | They've sold out their entire gender to get votes. | Mar 26 20:18 |
| DaemonFC | That makes them the worst! | Mar 26 20:18 |
| bnchs | MinceR: it's mostly woman who say "manspreading is bad" | Mar 26 20:18 |
| MinceR | female crybullies | Mar 26 20:18 |
| DaemonFC | You know why the male suicide rate in most countries is 4-6 times higher than women!? | Mar 26 20:18 |
| DaemonFC | Because politicians give all of the welfare to women. | Mar 26 20:18 |
| chicksahoy | manspreading on the bus is impolite, there isn't alot of room | Mar 26 20:18 |
| DaemonFC | So if they fail, there's less consequences. | Mar 26 20:18 |
| bnchs | they don't understand we can't be crushing up our balls | Mar 26 20:18 |
| MinceR | also, public transport tends to suck | Mar 26 20:18 |
| chicksahoy | if the seats were spread out more i'd say go for it | Mar 26 20:19 |
| MinceR | and if you communte by car, then they say you're satan | Mar 26 20:19 |
| DaemonFC | They can get on the programs and then if you're a man and go in there they at least humiliate you and maybe deny you too. | Mar 26 20:19 |
| DaemonFC | Like, "What are you doing in here? You're a man! Get a job!". | Mar 26 20:19 |
| *psydroid8 has quit (connection closed) | Mar 26 20:19 | |
| MinceR | and this is compounded by the desire to have humans reproduce as quickly as possible | Mar 26 20:19 |
| DaemonFC | "Oh hello Mrs. Brown, back again? EIGHT children and no man in the house this time? BRILLIANT! Here's another $500 a month!" | Mar 26 20:19 |
| DaemonFC | Errr, "Ms." Brown rather. | Mar 26 20:20 |
| DaemonFC | But like, you know, traditionally 80-90% of the people on welfare have been women. | Mar 26 20:20 |
| bnchs | it's mostly woman who don't understand why men do it in the first place | Mar 26 20:20 |
| DaemonFC | Because the system gravitates towards seeing them as the ones that need help. | Mar 26 20:20 |
| DaemonFC | Nobody tells them "Get a job, loser!" and drums them out of the welfare office. | Mar 26 20:20 |
| DaemonFC | So they get the safety net and men get the boot. | Mar 26 20:21 |
| bnchs | they rather yell to men about manspreading rather than looking at the root of problem | Mar 26 20:21 |
| *psydroid8 (~psydroid@xg2evud9qdris.irc) has joined #techrights | Mar 26 20:21 | |

| DaemonFC | You do what you can. | Mar 26 20:21 |
| DaemonFC | And it's not just manspreading, oh no, it's deliberately straining my thighs to see how much more egregious this shit can be. | Mar 26 20:22 |
| activelow | bnchs: what is it, the root of the problem? | Mar 26 20:22 |
| bnchs | it's just feminists running out of shit to complain about in blue bird asylum | Mar 26 20:22 |

| DaemonFC | I said: | Mar 26 20:42 |
| DaemonFC | "That's how religion works. When the Catholics molest little boys, the church does nothing, says nothing, won't cooperate with the police, moves the priest to Brazil in the middle of the night, and then cuts mom's pension and hours to fund hush money. | Mar 26 20:42 |
| DaemonFC | Why should the other ridiculous religions do better than that? They're all a form of organized crime." | Mar 26 20:42 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, ^ | Mar 26 20:42 |
| MinceR | yup | Mar 26 20:43 |
| DaemonFC | The Chicago Mafia is alive and well. It's the Archdiocese of Chicago. | Mar 26 20:43 |
| bnchs | DaemonFC, i always thought catholic priests molesting kids was a meme | Mar 26 20:43 |
| DaemonFC | Most major cities have one. | Mar 26 20:43 |
| bnchs | it's probably just a few bad apples | Mar 26 20:43 |
| bnchs | and there's most likely some good priests out there | Mar 26 20:43 |
| MinceR | riiiight | Mar 26 20:43 |
| MinceR | and there's nothing wrong with using diplomatic connections to keep them from being punished | Mar 26 20:44 |
| bnchs | that's the optimistic view | Mar 26 20:44 |
| DaemonFC | The entire organization is corrupt, not all of which is perverted sex crimes. | Mar 26 20:44 |
| DaemonFC | That's the tip of the iceberg. | Mar 26 20:44 |
| bnchs | MinceR, i'm not saying that | Mar 26 20:44 |
| MinceR | and with moving them to a new place where they aren't known, so they can start fucking kids all over again | Mar 26 20:44 |
| bnchs | is that a strawman? | Mar 26 20:44 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, This time in a third world country where they don't have to pay as much out to the victims. | Mar 26 20:44 |
| MinceR | no | Mar 26 20:44 |
| MinceR | that's exactly what the International Pedophile Party does with their pedophile members | Mar 26 20:45 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 26 20:45 |
| bnchs | because there's most likely some good priests out there | Mar 26 20:45 |
| DaemonFC | And if that fails, they can always move them to a place where they're secluded and make the parishioners who donate to the church pay for their "retirement". | Mar 26 20:45 |
| MinceR | and presumably there's nothing hypocritical in them going ahead and telling the rest of us what behavior is moral and what isn't | Mar 26 20:45 |
| MinceR | i doubt there are good priests out there | Mar 26 20:45 |
| DaemonFC | Priest who fucks 6 year olds: "You're going to hell for being married to another man!" | Mar 26 20:46 |
| MinceR | it's an obviously evil religion and their task is to manipulate people in the name of the cult | Mar 26 20:46 |
| bnchs | MinceR, really? | Mar 26 20:46 |
| MinceR | yes, really | Mar 26 20:46 |
| DaemonFC | Also Priest who fucks 6 year olds, "You're going to hell for using condoms instead of producing children!" | Mar 26 20:46 |
| bnchs | well are there really any good religions out there | Mar 26 20:46 |
| MinceR | it's yet another place for sociopaths to congregate | Mar 26 20:46 |
| MinceR | not sure | Mar 26 20:46 |
| DaemonFC | Why could they possibly want more children? Hmmm. | Mar 26 20:46 |
| MinceR | abrahamism is pretty horrible | Mar 26 20:46 |
| MinceR | buddhism could be nice, but i've heard people do horrible things in its name too | Mar 26 20:47 |
| DaemonFC | Yes, everywhere it goes, it rapes, plunders, and murders, and commits genocide even, then the colonists come and declare that traditionally it's always been a Christian country. | Mar 26 20:47 |

| DaemonFC | MinceR, Stallman said that the people alive today haven't committed crimes against the Native Americans. That's not true. | Mar 26 20:48 |
| DaemonFC | The agency that manages them is still called "Bureau of Indian Affairs". | Mar 26 20:48 |
| DaemonFC | The federal government conspires to keep them in poverty, in the hopes that their numbers dwindle and they can one day deertify their tribes and take back their reservation land. | Mar 26 20:49 |
| bnchs | DaemonFC: people alive today are not responible for what their ancenstors did | Mar 26 20:50 |
| *immibis has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) | Mar 26 20:50 | |
| bnchs | you end up with people gulit tripping them | Mar 26 20:50 |
| DaemonFC | The federal government prevents them from adequately punishing lawbreakers that come onto their land. If they don't refer the crime to a federal court, the most an "Indian" court can sentence you to is a year in jail, which they have to pay for. | Mar 26 20:50 |
| bnchs | "YOUR GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GRAND FATHER ENSLAVED THOUSANDS OF AFRICANS" | Mar 26 20:50 |
| DaemonFC | No, I'm talking about fucked up things going on today that one law could change. | Mar 26 20:50 |
| DaemonFC | For starters, renaming the BIA to something less offensive. | Mar 26 20:51 |
| DaemonFC | Then reforming their reservation laws so that they have more autonomy, like a state government. | Mar 26 20:51 |
| DaemonFC | Then looking into the "treaties" that they agreed to, regarding land that they gave up to the feds forever, which isn't even being used by anyone for anything. | Mar 26 20:52 |

| ciphrCat | You folks have probably seen this story but be sure to read it if you haven't.

| DaemonFC | They were wearing a mask on top of the KKK hood for a lot of decades there. | Mar 26 20:54 |
| DaemonFC | Then you find out they're every bit as racist and stupid and that there's a good plenty of climate deniers, and they hate immigrants, and they don't believe in vaccines, and the cops there let right-wing protests that cost the economy tens of millions of dollars go on for fucking ever. | Mar 26 20:55 |

| bnchs | the best way is to not log in at all | Mar 26 20:57 |
| ciphrCat | wow.. although, a US teacher was caught doing the same thing.. he created Google accounts for students and agreed to Google's terms w/out the students knowing | Mar 26 20:58 |

| DaemonFC | MinceR, That's how you make mjg59_'s head explode. Like that unsolvable geometric shape idea to wipe out the Borg. Tell him Discord can't be made to depend on systemd. | Mar 26 21:43 |
| MinceR | lol | Mar 26 21:43 |
| bnchs | schestowitz-TR, madaidan the pseudo-security researcher | Mar 26 21:43 |
| MinceR | maybe once MICROS~1 enables WSL by default on all Backdoors11 installations | Mar 26 21:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | with a pseudonym too? | Mar 26 21:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | MinceR: and 'secure' boot | Mar 26 21:44 |
| MinceR | tencent can't afford to lose Backdoors users from their spying service | Mar 26 21:44 |
| bnchs | yeah | Mar 26 21:44 |
| schestowitz-TR | I had to turn that crap off today | Mar 26 21:44 |
| MinceR | i thought they did that already | Mar 26 21:44 |

| schestowitz-TR | some windows crap | Mar 26 21:44 |
| bnchs | his blog is a meme | Mar 26 21:44 |
| bnchs | even shills against openBSD | Mar 26 21:44 |
| bnchs | and encourages windows 10 S mode | Mar 26 21:45 |
| bnchs | in locked-down windows laptop | Mar 26 21:45 |
| bnchs | he deleted the openBSD page | Mar 26 21:45 |

| MinceR | actually not even then | Mar 26 21:47 |
| MinceR | as android doesn't support systemd | Mar 26 21:47 |
| bnchs | "Verified boot is an important security feature that eliminates privileged malware persistence by verifying the integrity of the entire base operating system. This is most commonly used on mobile devices with Android and iOS both having solid implementations, but desktop operating systems have made substantial progress on this as well; mainly macOS, Windows and ChromeOS, whereas any form of verified boot is nonexistent on OpenBSD.

| DaemonFC | "If you think the police are there to protect us, you have white privilege!" | Mar 26 22:11 |
| DaemonFC | Welp, I don't have white privilege. What do I win, boss!? | Mar 26 22:11 |
| MinceR | nothing | Mar 26 22:11 |
| MinceR | in theory, the "privilege" would be what you win, but the above sounds more like a delusion | Mar 26 22:12 |
| DaemonFC | "If you have to specify that you're married to a member of the opposite sex, you have heterosexual privilege." | Mar 26 22:13 |
| DaemonFC | Well, 95% of the time, it's the correct assumption. Also, your module admits there are two genders. Whoops. | Mar 26 22:14 |

| MinceR | "admits"? | Mar 26 22:14 |
| DaemonFC | "If you don't have to work on Sundays and holidays, you have Christian privilege." | Mar 26 22:14 |
| MinceR | how does that work? | Mar 26 22:15 |
| DaemonFC | Never seen a single employer give a shit what religion you are when making the schedule. | Mar 26 22:15 |
| DaemonFC | Also, everyone at Walmart gets Christmas off. | Mar 26 22:15 |
| DaemonFC | Also, also, people who randomly get Sunday off have Christian privilege, even if they're not Christians. | Mar 26 22:15 |
| MinceR | all the unemployed have christian privilege | Mar 26 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | Not just Christian privilege....Muslim and Jew privilege as well! | Mar 26 22:16 |
| DaemonFC | "If while growing up, college was an expectation of you, not a dream, you have class privilege." | Mar 26 22:17 |
| DaemonFC | The CEO tells people making minimum wage because they couldn't afford college, while he went to college, most of whom are white, without a sense of irony about the whole damned thing. | Mar 26 22:18 |
| DaemonFC | "If you use bathrooms without stares and fear, you have cisgender privilege." | Mar 26 22:19 |
| DaemonFC | Or you don't want men in the girls bathroom while your daughter is in there. | Mar 26 22:19 |
| bnchs | DaemonFC: in islam you literally pray 5 times a day | Mar 26 22:19 |
| bnchs | i guess muslims don't work on everyday | Mar 26 22:19 |
| MinceR | iSlam | Mar 26 22:20 |
| DaemonFC | bnchs, Yeah, and the ridiculous part is you have to accommodate that. As an employer. | Mar 26 22:20 |
| DaemonFC | You know what I'd probably do. | Mar 26 22:20 |
| DaemonFC | I'd say "Go pray, and that was one of your breaks.". | Mar 26 22:20 |
| *activelow admires the stamina of DaemonFC to inject his though into the channel constantly | Mar 26 22:20 | |
| MinceR | and then you get sued, because you're doing that in a fundamentalist state :> | Mar 26 22:20 |
| activelow | thought | Mar 26 22:20 |
| bnchs | average muslims just cherrypick parts of their religion which looks good for them | Mar 26 22:21 |
| MinceR | not just muslims | Mar 26 22:21 |
| bnchs | yeah not just muslims | Mar 26 22:21 |
| bnchs | everyone | Mar 26 22:21 |
| DaemonFC | "IF you don't have to worry about how to get into a store, you have able-bodied privilege." | Mar 26 22:21 |
| MinceR | well, i hope i'm not cherrypicking any part of any religion :> | Mar 26 22:21 |
| DaemonFC | The Americans with Disabilities Act is the reason there are like 40 crippled spots at every Walmart. | Mar 26 22:21 |
| DaemonFC | Why ll of the doors are sliding, and why nothing in the store is elevated. | Mar 26 22:22 |
| *Despatche (~desp@u3xy9z2ifjzci.irc) has joined #techrights | Mar 26 22:22 | |
| DaemonFC | Also, thanks to the fact that people want to park closer than they can, they run off and bribe doctors to tell the state they need a handicapped placard when they don't. | Mar 26 22:22 |
| bnchs | DaemonFC: also one prayer lasts about half an hour | Mar 26 22:22 |
| DaemonFC | Because all of those parking spots have to be there or the company can be fined. | Mar 26 22:23 |
| bnchs | and can be extended to how much the muslim likes to "pray" for | Mar 26 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | bnchs, They wouldn't like me very much then. | Mar 26 22:23 |
| bnchs | i put pray in quotes | Mar 26 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | "Go clock out. Clock back in and earn money when you are ready to do more work." | Mar 26 22:23 |
| bnchs | because sometimes they just act like they're praying just to goof off | Mar 26 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | They can goof off if they want to when they're off the clock. | Mar 26 22:23 |
| DaemonFC | Labor law doesn't say you have to pay them to pray. | Mar 26 22:24 |
| bnchs | this is a loophole in islam | Mar 26 22:24 |
| DaemonFC | It says they get two fifteen minute breaks and at least half an hour, unpaid, for lunch. | Mar 26 22:24 |
| bnchs | and mostly muslims use it to get away from anything | Mar 26 22:24 |
| DaemonFC | "WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THAT KID! LEAVE HER ALONE! SHE CAN'T BE MORE THAN 12!" | Mar 26 22:25 |
| DaemonFC | Muslim: "This is my wife. Respect my freedom of religion!" | Mar 26 22:26 |
| DaemonFC | State: "Okay, carry on!" | Mar 26 22:26 |
| bnchs | yeah it's more than that | Mar 26 22:26 |
| bnchs | say someone's looking for you because you done something bad | Mar 26 22:26 |
| bnchs | and you're cornered | Mar 26 22:26 |
| bnchs | just act like you're praying | Mar 26 22:26 |
| bnchs | you haven't paid the taxes, and officers looking for you? | Mar 26 22:27 |
| bnchs | just don't answer the door and act like you're praying | Mar 26 22:27 |
| DaemonFC | They usually don't send the cops over unpaid taxes. | Mar 26 22:28 |
| DaemonFC | They just slap a garnishment on your bank account and take the money. | Mar 26 22:28 |
| bnchs | yeah but that's just an example | Mar 26 22:28 |
| bnchs | muslims don't have to talk or say shit while they're praying | Mar 26 22:29 |
| bnchs | and praying time can be extended to how much they like to pray | Mar 26 22:29 |
| MinceR | not having to talk makes sense | Mar 26 22:36 |
| MinceR | i'd expect an allegedly omnipotent and omniscient being to be capable of telepathy | Mar 26 22:36 |
| MinceR | then again, they should be able to just read your wished from your mind | Mar 26 22:36 |
| MinceR | even if they can't just predict it based on predestination :> | Mar 26 22:36 |
| bnchs | yes it gives them time to think | Mar 26 22:36 |
| MinceR | s/hed/hes/ | Mar 26 22:37 |
| bnchs | to strategize and plan out their escape plan | Mar 26 22:37 |
| bnchs | the prayer buys them a ton of time | Mar 26 22:37 |

| DaemonFC | Many protestants believe you shouldn't pray out loud. | Mar 26 23:45 |
| DaemonFC | If you think it, then Satan doesn't know what you're saying. | Mar 26 23:45 |
| MinceR | unless satan can also read your mind | Mar 26 23:45 |
| DaemonFC | But if you do say it, speak gibberish so that Satan doesn't know what it means, but God does. | Mar 26 23:45 |
| DaemonFC | They claim that Satan cannot read your mind, but that he can put thoughts and feelings INTO your mind. | Mar 26 23:46 |
| MinceR | iirc there is something about how you're not supposed to make a spectacle out of your worship or something | Mar 26 23:46 |
| DaemonFC | Write-only access, you see. | Mar 26 23:46 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Mar 26 23:46 |
| MinceR | :> | Mar 26 23:46 |
| DaemonFC | <MinceR> iirc there is something about how you're not supposed to make a spectacle out of your worship or something | Mar 26 23:46 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah, it's not that. Trust me. Most of them love a good spectacle. | Mar 26 23:46 |
| MinceR | :> | Mar 26 23:47 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, Science is getting good enough that fMRI scanning can crudely estimate what you're thinking about. | Mar 26 23:48 |
| DaemonFC | Eventually, companies will probably want you to wear something where they stuffed it on page 87 of the EULA that they can literally suck thoughts out of your head and use them against you. | Mar 26 23:49 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, Logan's Run even predicted some of what we have no. | Mar 26 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | *now | Mar 26 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | Remember when he turns on the machine and it started showing him images of people who wanted to have sex with someone. | Mar 26 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | Grindr! | Mar 26 23:50 |
| DaemonFC | Okay, so it doesn't teleport them, but it does show how close they are. | Mar 26 23:50 |
| MinceR | i don't think i've seen logan's run | Mar 26 23:52 |
| DaemonFC | The show predicted a future where nobody cared if you "preferred men". It made it into the dialog. He changes his mind and she asks if he prefers men. In the 1970s, it probably did seem like nobody caring if you were gay was quickly approaching. | Mar 26 23:52 |
| DaemonFC | The Moral Majority came back and social issues had like two lost decades before anything started getting better again. | Mar 26 23:53 |
| DaemonFC | Trump is gone, but he left behind judges to sabotage things. And a bunch of "trumpy" state governors who got into office promising to "own the libs". | Mar 26 23:54 |
| DaemonFC | So they're quite able to make life miserable for a lot of people for some time just because he was around for 4 years. | Mar 26 23:54 |
| DaemonFC | I don't see Trump returning, and if he does, it would be a disaster for the Republicans anyway. | Mar 26 23:55 |
| DaemonFC | He's got a lot of problems with a "comeback". | Mar 26 23:55 |
| DaemonFC | For starters, Mike Pence hates his guts now and thinks he'll run, and then there's 50 Republican Senators who see a future president every time they look in a mirror. | Mar 26 23:56 |
| MinceR | :> | Mar 26 23:57 |
| DaemonFC | So it's going to be a crowded and brutal primary. Trump has a lot of money, but he'll also have to spend a lot to make it out of that, as will the rest of them. | Mar 26 23:57 |
| DaemonFC | And it could even lead to a contested convention. | Mar 26 23:57 |
| MinceR | he could split off his part of the "republican" party :> | Mar 26 23:57 |
| DaemonFC | Yeah, there's many ways for this to end, and none are a stronger Republican Party. | Mar 26 23:57 |
| MinceR | he could lose the primary and then say it was "rigged" | Mar 26 23:58 |
| DaemonFC | And what if he does make it, but is badly damaged by the primary? | Mar 26 23:58 |
| DaemonFC | Then all Biden has to do is keep running attack ads talking about Trump's ties to Vladimir Putin and the Russians. | Mar 26 23:58 |
| DaemonFC | 86% of Americans have a negative or strongly negative view of Russia now and so all you need to do if Trump comes back is have wall to wall attack ads. | Mar 26 23:59 |
