If there's anything wrong with your car which could lead to an accident, you get it fixed or you can't get your plates and the car goes to scrap. [16:56] DaemonFC If they did a safety check at the same time they were testing for smog, I think we could reduce car accidents in Illinois by a large amount.

[17:26] DaemonFC It's helping me stay out of debt, actually. [17:26] DaemonFC Most insurance companies score your auto rates with FICO and it's usually a minimum of 10% of their risk model, and up to 24%. [17:27] DaemonFC If you have a truly lousy credit score and one traffic ticket, you're going to be paying about 1.55 times as much as you otherwise would for insurance. [17:27] DaemonFC They'll use anything as an excuse to bill you more, even if it doesn't mean you're a bad risk. Any excuse they can use to gang up and fuck you is more money for them and less for you. [17:28] techrights-news #gmail is not #email ..

[17:32] DaemonFC They say your renewal rate will be determined in part based on how their gadget says you drive. [17:33] DaemonFC Considering whether you speed, what time of day and what day you drive, and how aggressively you drive. [17:33] DaemonFC So, now it is monitoring you, and your rates roll over to the next term based on what you did the previous six months. [17:33] DaemonFC So if you use it, be careful. [17:33] DaemonFC And be prepared to switch to a different company if your rates go way up. [17:34] DaemonFC We're going to an individualized risk model with almost every company now. [17:34] schestowitz-TR does not sound like insurance [17:34] DaemonFC It's simply too attractive to them. They price high risk drivers out to some other company entirely who specializes in only doing business with them. [17:34] schestowitz-TR sound like spying instrumentation [17:34] DaemonFC And other people get lower rates and brag about their low rates. [17:35] DaemonFC sound like spying instrumentation [17:35] DaemonFC It is. [17:35] schestowitz-TR they brags about being spied on [17:35] DaemonFC While I was getting a quote the other day, some guy at their office in San Francisco called my cell phone and started trying to seal the deal. [17:35] schestowitz-TR today a lady came to take our meter readings [17:35] schestowitz-TR no "smart" [17:36] schestowitz-TR we protect her job [17:36] DaemonFC I said I was still crunching the numbers on their quote site and that I did not own the car quite yet, but I was seeing what kind of rates I could get and what the optimal coverage levels for the money would be. [17:37] DaemonFC It almost always turns out that you can get double the liability coverage that your state demands for a few bucks over the policy term, which is a good idea. [17:37] DaemonFC Hospitals aren't cheap and they aren't giving away cars for free! [17:37] DaemonFC But doubling it again almost always costs more than that's worth. [17:38] schestowitz-TR does anyone here have microphones in kitchenware? [17:38] DaemonFC These new cars are so expensive to repair that you can do $20,000 worth of damage in a fender bender that used to just mean replacing a plastic bumper cover. [17:38] schestowitz-TR it would be worth doing an articles about that.. [17:38] DaemonFC It's because of the sensors and crap. [17:38] DaemonFC State minimum coverage laws just haven't caught up with that, so if the insurance people offer you another $5,000 of property damage coverage for 10 cents a month, why not? [17:39] DaemonFC Illinois only requires $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident bodily injury and $20,000 property damage. [17:39] DaemonFC But you can do $50/$100/$25 for not that much more. [17:40] DaemonFC I recommend it because you could be on the receiving end of a very bad lawsuit if you don't have adequate coverage to deal with at least almost all of the other party's expenses. [17:41] DaemonFC Just going to the ER to get checked out by a doctor for a few minutes and an X-Ray usually settles out for about $5,000 all by itself. [17:41] DaemonFC Now imagine a major accident. [17:42] gustaf schestowitz-TR: you really want the power company to be able to read your consumption in realtime? [17:42] DaemonFC It's impossible to know you'll have enough insurance no matter how much you buy, but $25,000 isn't likely going to cut it. [17:42] DaemonFC Then there's a flip side. If you get $500,000 of bodily injury coverage, and they get a lawyer, the lawyer will go "$500,000 of liability? Fuck yeah, we're suing!". [17:43] DaemonFC So most experts recommend no more than 100/300. [17:43] DaemonFC Some companies sell 500/1 million but if you buy those you're asking for trouble. [17:43] DaemonFC Lawyers. You know I hate 'em. [17:45] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, I used to buy a skimpy policy and say eh if I hit anyone they get what they get while I file bankruptcy. [17:45] DaemonFC But I can't do that for a while. [17:46] DaemonFC Many people out there don't even do that. About 30% of the people out there in just about any area of the US, and over 60% in Detroit drive with no insurance at all. [17:46] DaemonFC Which is a crime, but that doesn't bother a lot of people, and it doesn't effect them when the courts are so lame you get prosecutors and judges like we have in Illinois, who wither dismiss it or settle it out cheaper than the insurance cost. [17:47] DaemonFC I just figure on the fact that while that's what happens for everyone else, no consequences, the system has shown me how harsh it will be to me, personally, for the slightest thing. [17:48] DaemonFC When the insurance costs $1,400 a year, but settling with the government only sets you back a few hundred dollars every 10 years or so when they catch you.... [17:48] DaemonFC What's a scumbag to do? Right? :) [17:49] DaemonFC Don't tell me these people don't know math. They know that the odds favor breaking the law, and they do it. Like counting cards. [17:50] DaemonFC So the politicians, I think, don't operate on this level. [17:50] DaemonFC They create programs like enhanced unemployment and eviction moratoriums. [17:50] DaemonFC And they think "Oh, just a few people who are really hard up will use this. We're a Great Society!". [17:51] DaemonFC And then millions of people take two years off work because it pays more, stiff the landlord, and go kayaking.

[18:15] gustaf Andrew Lee doesn't give a fig about the GDPR [18:16] XRevan86 Today it feels especially good not to have an account on freenode other than tr-bridge. [18:24] activelow Kiwiirc/webchat fails too [18:25] activelow so, freenode is totally defunct now? without any announcement? [18:25] XRevan86 activelow: Announcements are for the weak. [18:26] XRevan86 IRC.com also has a webchat, and it says "We couldn't log in :( There was a problem connecting :(" when choosing "Guest". [18:27] DaemonFC I saw a very misleading GDPR/CCPA cookie notice the other day. [18:27] DaemonFC It said you could pick the silver, gold, or platium level, and each level up gave you less privacy when you saved your cookie preferences. The least amount of spying was if you picked silver. [18:28] activelow got my old freenode credential with password and verified mail. didn't enter this password in three years anywhere, only SASL. [18:28] activelow with cert [18:28] DaemonFC So it may not be legal, and even if it is, that says that it didn't take them very long to turn the whole thing on its head and confuse 90% of the people to pick the one that lets the site do anything it wants. [18:29] XRevan86 activelow: Hm? If ye didn't reregister after the reset, it's useless. [18:29] activelow should i try on irc.com? [18:30] XRevan86 activelow: It should be the same userbase as on freenode right now. [18:30] activelow "An error occured while trying to log in" [18:30] XRevan86 or I mean, as it was on freenode yesterday [18:31] activelow it is official now. freenode is dead. [18:31] XRevan86 activelow: To me freenode will be fully dead only after schestowitz fully gives up on it. [18:33] XRevan86 But it's a matter of time, I really don't think freenode can be used as a fallback now at all. It wants to much from users just to use it. [18:33] XRevan86 And so no one, apart from those who are already on it, will go there. [18:33] XRevan86 And if irc.techrights.org will experience issues, the freenode side will be silent. [18:33] activelow go there how? it is impossible to connect to freenode domain. [18:34] XRevan86 activelow: Exactly. If schestowitz wants a fallback, it's time to look for one. [18:35] activelow got 2mbit uplink, and had been thinking about an ircd-hybrid7 instance for some time, efnet style [18:35] activelow sadly, vodafone did NOT administer a static IPv4 [18:37] activelow dyndns is, insufficient [18:43] activelow XRevan86: anything wrong with OFTC?

[18:44] MinceR plenty wrong with oftc [18:44] MinceR allegedly registering accounts on oftc currently requires running nonfree javascript [18:45] MinceR and oftc is run by a bunch of anti-free software SJWs, with some overlap with the ones running illibera [18:46] activelow somewhat ironic techrights IRC provides the most comfortable IRC service [18:46] XRevan86 https://services.oftc.net/ "complete the CAPTCHA there to prove you are not a robot.

I've not heard that any version of cURL gets around Cloudflare's CAPTCHA. I just tried the latest version of curl on irc.com and got captcha blocked [20:07] CrystalMath is it compiled with TLSv1.3? [20:07] ciphrCat activelow: what do you mean? Amazon sued you? [20:07] CrystalMath it's not about the version of curl [20:09] activelow ciphrCat , not entirely sure who the entities involved are, and who is responsible: amazon, besides IBM, some dubious resellers, a vendor in HongKong, and a trademark holder from california [20:09] activelow i set a deadline until 30.08.2021 now for the opposing lawyer to drop the case, otherwise i'll post more evidence to german court, next time with an official oath [20:10] ciphrCat CrystalMath: this command was accepted, but captcha was pushed: "torsocks curl --tlsv1.3 https://irc.com/" [20:10] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-IRC.com [20:10] ciphrCat curl would have errored if it wasn't compiled with v1.3 support [20:28] DaemonFC I double checked everything I get statements for to make sure it's online only. [20:29] DaemonFC I don't usually like these, but we've had a lot of issues with people prying our mailboxes open to see what they can steal. [20:29] DaemonFC If it's anything important, I get a scan of it from the post office and watch the mailbox like a hawk that day. [20:29] DaemonFC The DMV said they can mail my car title to the PO Box, which is secure, so I had them do that. [20:30] DaemonFC "The eviction ban is ending, putting millions at risk for losing their home." [20:30] DaemonFC No, it's not theirs. They were renting it. [20:31] DaemonFC It's their home according to the lease terms for every month they paid their rent. Time's up, deadbeats. [20:31] DaemonFC They finally get the boot and maybe the landlord doesn't have to raise rent as much on the people who bother to pay. [20:31] DaemonFC What causes more people to lose their home is when they can't afford a home. [20:32] DaemonFC If the landlord has to jack up rents due to some bad actors blowing their enhanced unemployment checks on Disneyland and another TV, then more people will lose their home. [20:32] DaemonFC They should have thought about whether they needed Disneyland and another Playstation or whether they needed a home. [20:32] DaemonFC So I say, for the most part (excepting a few good people who will unfortunately be harmed), good. Fuck em.

[21:53] DaemonFC I've been shopping at big box stores for a long time because of the rock bottom prices, but then you get in there and it's all disheveled and nobody knows where anything is, if you can even find someone.
