[00:56]	DaemonFC	MinceR, The point at which I got angry and said fuck this was when Invicta hid the pins under these clasps that the band was holding onto the watch with.
[00:56]	DaemonFC	So I took a precision screwdriver and very precisely pried up on the metal to bend it out of the way so I could get at the pins, even though it ruined the original band.
[00:56]	DaemonFC	It's like, they don't want you to replace the band or something. :P
[00:57]	DaemonFC	But the metal they used was so cheap that it nicely bends right out of the way.

[02:22]	DaemonFC	At the fundraiser with Jeffrey Epstein that Bill Gates organized, Epstein told donors that if they googled him, they might hear some bad things, but it was "no worse than stealing a bagel".
[02:22]	DaemonFC	Yes, he compared what he did to being persecuted for stealing bread.
[02:22]	DaemonFC	Does that make Epstein the Jean Valjean of his own telling of the story?

[03:21]	DaemonFC	People like to hear tax cuts, but big tax cut bills are followed up within a few years by even more suffering than the cuts were worth.
[03:21]	DaemonFC	My spouse and I pay $1,000 less to the government each year under Trump's tax law, but inflation is running so high now (I'm talking real inflation.) that you need more than the $1,000 that year to fix the car, to buy food, to pay your rent.
[03:21]	DaemonFC	So the tax cuts are imaginary, except for companies like Microsoft which brag about how much they're ripping us off.

[06:25]	DaemonFC	When you're going bankrupt, the trustee looks and sees if you screwed everyone or were playing favorites.

[06:28]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], If you paid some vendors and not others, then the trustee can go back and claw back the payments you made to one and split them up between your creditors.
[06:28]	DaemonFC	It can also lead to allegations of bankruptcy fraud.
[06:28]	DaemonFC	When you stop paying people, you stop paying people.

[08:13]	DaemonFC	MSN on Microsoft layoffs affecting immigrants who will now be deported.
[08:13]	DaemonFC	Fabulous.
[08:15]	DaemonFC	"The frustrations have spilled out onto social media platforms, with laid-off workers openly pitching themselves for new jobs to maintain their legal visa status in the U.S. 
[08:15]	DaemonFC	One worker, who identified himself as a software engineer, said on LinkedIn: Seems unfair that If you cross the border illegally, you get an indefinite time to be in the country (in most cases) and find a place for yourself, yet coming in legally is treated completely opposite. Immigration reforms are necessary, at least the time-off duration needs to increase so people have a fair shot of finding jobs when hiring resumes.
[08:15]	DaemonFC	Another worker, who identified himself as a laid-off Twitter employee, appealed to those on the site, saying he has just 60 days to find a new job. I am looking for a Software/Machine Learning Engineer role immediately, he wrote on LinkedIn.
[08:15]	DaemonFC	At least one tech executive has heeded the call to help.
[08:15]	DaemonFC	Joshua Browder, CEO of AI-based legal services startup DoNotPay, took to Twitter recently saying he was open to hiring H-1B visa holders at his company."
[08:15]	DaemonFC	They knew when they took the H1-B that it was a NON-immigrant visa.

[08:40]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], Mine was a personal bankruptcy, but I did the research on how to do a chapter 7 and what not to do to piss the trustee off.
[08:41]	schestowitz[TR]	ah, ok
[08:41]	schestowitz[TR]	this is company
[08:41]	schestowitz[TR]	and uk
[08:41]	DaemonFC	I laughed when I got to the part about screw all your creditors equally at the same time.
[08:41]	DaemonFC	Companies can file Chapter 7 in the US.
[08:41]	schestowitz[TR]	not even same terminology here
[08:41]	DaemonFC	Individuals can file Chapter 7 or 13.
[08:41]	DaemonFC	Companies, 7 or 11.
[08:41]	schestowitz[TR]	one guess I have is,
[08:41]	schestowitz[TR]	those who filed for it in 2019
[08:41]	schestowitz[TR]	have no regrets
[08:41]	DaemonFC	A 13 is similar to an 11 for an individual.
[08:42]	schestowitz[TR]	as 2020 onwards would bring no reprieve
[08:42]	DaemonFC	That's where you don't want to lose everything that's not exempt and go through liquidation.
[08:42]	schestowitz[TR]	it's symptoms also of a broken system
[08:42]	schestowitz[TR]	where debts just go "poof"
[08:42]	DaemonFC	A 7 is only used for an individual when they have property they need to keep and so they reorganize or because they make too much money for a 7.
[08:42]	schestowitz[TR]	and the lenders getb burned
[08:42]	schestowitz[TR]	usually no t the banks
[08:42]	schestowitz[TR]	the banks rob the taxpayers
[08:42]	DaemonFC	I mean, a 13 is.
[08:43]	schestowitz[TR]	the lenders who get burned might be relatives
[08:43]	DaemonFC	I used a 7 because I had nothing and the only thing it got rid of was debt.
[08:43]	DaemonFC	Well, bankruptcy law says if you owe family, they must be listed as creditors.
[08:43]	DaemonFC	It discharges debt to family members, but after the discharge, you can pay back anyone you want to.
[08:43]	DaemonFC	It's not illegal.
[08:43]	DaemonFC	It's voluntary because they have nothing they can use to legally force you to do it.
[08:44]	DaemonFC	But before the discharge, you can't say "I'm paying my brother back a $5,000 loan, but I'm screwing the credit card people.".
[08:44]	DaemonFC	Weird, right?
[08:45]	schestowitz[TR]	brb
[08:45]	schestowitz[TR]	bad timing, sorry
[08:45]	schestowitz[TR]	biab
[08:45]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], In my case, it was the finance arm of a Korean car company which uses child labor in Alabama apparently and doesn't care that their cars blow up and kill people.
[08:45]	DaemonFC	KIA
[08:45]	DaemonFC	Along with hospitals, landlords, and credit card companies.
[08:46]	DaemonFC	I mean, not exactly people who evoke nice feelings from other people, you know.
[08:46]	DaemonFC	Everyone hates banks, landlords, and hospitals because everyone has them chasing them down for money.
[08:47]	DaemonFC	"When a company starts debt-loading or offloading liabilities to other parties (public companies, upstream suppliers, private clients, staff) its certainly time to demand what youre entitled to and go away."
[08:48]	DaemonFC	Yes, before you become a bankruptcy creditor.
[08:48]	DaemonFC	They stop paying your salary and file bankruptcy and you have no job AND they hold on to your last paycheck and anything else they would have had to pay you if you got out sooner.
[08:49]	DaemonFC	If you're lucky, sometime next year a trustee sends you pennies of what you were owed.
[08:50]	DaemonFC	I'd say if your employer is obviously going down, leave while the paychecks aren't bouncing.
[08:50]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], The Catholic Church has actually bounced paychecks where my mom works.
[08:50]	DaemonFC	At least a few times that she told me of.
[08:50]	DaemonFC	Then the Archdiocese has to write them out as checks out of another account!
[08:51]	DaemonFC	There WAS a ton of money but it's all gone now because they hired fraudsters as managers and CEOs of those "subsidiaries" of the church.
[08:51]	DaemonFC	And they spent all the money on themselves and cronies, and now the accounts are dry and they're flaking out on paychecks and pensions and telling people they need to clock out sooner but same amount of work.
[08:52]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], It's getting bad there.
[08:52]	DaemonFC	The bonuses are gone.
[08:53]	DaemonFC	The turkey or ham they used to give at Christmas is gone.
[08:53]	DaemonFC	This year they said they could have a pie and it could be any of three varieties, and then some guy from dietary dropped off frozen cherry pies which were absolutely disgusting that the residents were refusing to eat and said that was Christmas.
[08:54]	DaemonFC	And it accidentally put frozen pies that said KEEP FROZEN in a refrigerator.
[08:54]	DaemonFC	Mom noticed and put them in the freezer.
[08:54]	DaemonFC	I say, "So how was the cherry pie? Was it at least good?".
[08:55]	DaemonFC	And she said, "No. It tasted like they used the cooking lard for three different things along the way to the pie and then the pie crust tastes like old rancid lard that needed to be tossed out.".
[08:55]	DaemonFC	"Your brother went back for more."
[08:56]	DaemonFC	They've turned their larger facility into such a mess that all the staff resigned and walked out, and they're paying agency people now because it's the only way to keep it open.
[08:56]	DaemonFC	And apparently it's so ghetto that fist fights break out there and they have to get rid of people for smoking joints in the building.
[08:57]	DaemonFC	Things have not deteriorated that badly where she's at.
[08:57]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], The Catholic Church is in deep shit.
[08:57]	DaemonFC	Like, DEEP SHIT.
[08:58]	DaemonFC	And I'm talking about church membership, prospect for church membership, finances.
[08:58]	DaemonFC	Everything.
[08:58]	DaemonFC	They're a disaster in most parts of the US right now, and even in Chicago they're closing down churches and schools and don't want to talk about it.
[08:59]	DaemonFC	They say "efficiency" not "We're bleeding members and red ink and we can't afford all this stuff anymore.".
[08:59]	IPFS	IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
[08:59]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], The Catholic Church is like a failing business.
[08:59]	DaemonFC	A failing business that can't pay its bills but hides the insolvency by moving money around for now.
● Dec 30
[09:02]	schestowitz[TR]	churches around henre shut down
[09:02]	schestowitz[TR]	so do pubs
[09:02]	schestowitz[TR]	to be clear, pubs are not about the drinking per se
[09:02]	schestowitz[TR]	they are social places
[09:02]	schestowitz[TR]	the drinking and dining are a side thing
[09:02]	schestowitz[TR]	how you sponsor the host
[09:02]	schestowitz[TR]	you go there to speak to "mates" and "blokes" about "mi missus"
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	and you find some new friends near you
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	by going there
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	and if you don't like someone, you go talk to someone else
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	or another group
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	so the pubs shutting down would lead to more lonliness and isolation
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	it's harder to pay for food and drinks there
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	thbeir heating bills too
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	the heat there attracts people
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	they are warm and you don't need to turn on the heating at home
[09:03]	schestowitz[TR]	4 hours at the local pub down the road
[09:04]	schestowitz[TR]	churches are also places where you can gather to meet people near you
[09:04]	schestowitz[TR]	and maybe meet them outside the church too
[09:04]	schestowitz[TR]	i think we last went to church like 3 years ago
[09:04]	schestowitz[TR]	I think on xmas eve
[09:04]	schestowitz[TR]	the church is still there, but we don't go 
[09:05]	DaemonFC	I don't like the idea of using church as a social club.
[09:05]	schestowitz[TR]	<DaemonFC> schestowitz[TR], It's getting bad there.
[09:05]	DaemonFC	Because of the sort of people church attracts.
[09:05]	schestowitz[TR]	KIA will struggle too
[09:05]	schestowitz[TR]	their strategy is,
[09:05]	schestowitz[TR]	hype up "EV"
[09:05]	schestowitz[TR]	hope people replace "traditional" with hype
[09:05]	schestowitz[TR]	like $110,000 Tesla
[09:06]	schestowitz[TR]	worth maybe $40000 12 months later
[09:06]	schestowitz[TR]	if you can find a buyer at al
[09:06]	schestowitz[TR]	lor a station to charge the f***er up
[09:06]	DaemonFC	Yeah, cars are not an investment.
[09:06]	schestowitz[TR]	in urban areas it might be OK
[09:06]	DaemonFC	You buy it, you maintain it to reduce trouble later on.
[09:06]	schestowitz[TR]	not rural
[09:06]	DaemonFC	Then when it's too much trouble, you go looking.
[09:06]	schestowitz[TR]	you get a brick outside town
[09:06]	schestowitz[TR]	and it won't charge fast
[09:06]	DaemonFC	<schestowitz[TR]> you get a brick outside town
[09:07]	schestowitz[TR]	like those dumb headphones that now need batteries
[09:07]	DaemonFC	There's barely anywhere to charge an EV in the Chicagoland Metro Area.
[09:07]	schestowitz[TR]	so you need to decide when to stop listening and start charging
[09:07]	schestowitz[TR]	PUUURE GENIUS!
[09:07]	schestowitz[TR]	as you say
[09:07]	DaemonFC	What the fuck do you do with it downstate?
[09:07]	schestowitz[TR]	INNOVA~1
[09:08]	DaemonFC	Do I like, buy it and pretend there's a charging station somewhere?
[09:08]	DaemonFC	Pretend that I'm driving it?
[09:08]	DaemonFC	:)
[09:10]	schestowitz[TR]	solving the wrong issues anyway
[09:10]	schestowitz[TR]	like the issue with headphoens was a cord
[09:10]	schestowitz[TR]	very fine cord
[09:10]	schestowitz[TR]	and the issue with car is inner combustion
[09:10]	schestowitz[TR]	they still burn coal and stuff
[09:10]	schestowitz[TR]	just not insude your car
[09:10]	schestowitz[TR]	they burn "black stuff" and turn that into charge
[09:11]	schestowitz[TR]	and then the car rotates the wheel with the carge
[09:11]	schestowitz[TR]	but there is still combution
[09:11]	schestowitz[TR]	so you reloate the issue
[09:11]	schestowitz[TR]	like suterte "solving" crime in davao
[09:11]	schestowitz[TR]	by driving the criminals to other towns
[09:11]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], Pritzker signed the clean energy law that employes black people 18 months ago.
[09:11]	schestowitz[TR]	problem "solved"... for davao
[09:11]	schestowitz[TR]	*duterte
[09:11]	DaemonFC	Now there's 30% more coal burned in Illinois and no black people working at the power company in those "job" listings.
[09:12]	DaemonFC	See how that works?
[09:12]	DaemonFC	This is how Democrats do you.
[09:12]	DaemonFC	Clean energy and black people jobs.
[09:12]	schestowitz[TR]	there are better clomate solutions
[09:12]	schestowitz[TR]	among them
[09:12]	schestowitz[TR]	a) reproduce less
[09:12]	DaemonFC	Oh shit! 30% more coal and no black people just "listings" that don't get filled.
[09:12]	schestowitz[TR]	b) walk more
[09:12]	schestowitz[TR]	c) live close to shops
[09:12]	schestowitz[TR]	d) work from home if it's a digital job
[09:13]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], It's just flat out stupid because they vote for Pritzker and they can't see what he's fucking down to fucking fuck them.
[09:13]	DaemonFC	The black people.
[09:13]	schestowitz[TR]	e) clothe better, rely less on applicance to change temperatures
[09:13]	DaemonFC	ComEd is obviously putting up fake job postings.
[09:13]	schestowitz[TR]	f) repair, recycle, upcycle, buy less
[09:13]	DaemonFC	Calling people it doesn't intend to hire for interviews.
[09:13]	DaemonFC	And saying "We're trying!".
[09:13]	DaemonFC	Like Wells Fargo only with electricity.
[09:13]	DaemonFC	mjg59_, ^

[09:15]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR], Mandy doesn't get why I like to sleep from 5 AM to 1 PM or so.

[22:10]	DaemonFC	I love it when rich people say commit a felony for them so you can get caught and they can get money.

[22:13]	DaemonFC	I would literally sleep in my car for a few weeks before I lied for a landlord on government forms like this woman in Indiana has her tenants do.
[22:13]	DaemonFC	Hmm, sleep in the car while I look for an apartment or go to prison for 5 years.
[22:13]	DaemonFC	Let me think.......
[22:13]	DaemonFC	:)
[22:13]	DaemonFC	But she gets $12,000 in PPP, doesn't have to sell 2/3 Cadillac cars to pay it back if she really is broke (she isn't), and nobody looks into that.
[22:13]	DaemonFC	Or the fake eviction notices she writes to new tenants so she gets Trustee + Salvation Army money.

[22:15]	DaemonFC	@DaemonFC
[22:15]	DaemonFC	The first lesson for would be criminals is that if you're poor, there's no way the crime will be "worth it" when it gets to court.
[22:15]	DaemonFC	It's only "worth it" for rich people who can LAWYERUP and pay a nuisance fine.
[22:15]	DaemonFC	The second rule is if you make any statements to an investigator, you're stupid. 
[22:16]	DaemonFC	Even if they charges fall apart, they'll go back and say "Okay smartass, something you told them was probably false. Let's see how you like them apples.".

[22:22]	DaemonFC	@DaemonFC
[22:22]	DaemonFC	I love it when people talk to the police and say things like "I didn't mean to do that!".
[22:22]	DaemonFC	Well, the law probably doesn't say you had to mean to do that, and you just flat out told them you did that.
[22:22]	DaemonFC	Your lawyer would have known whether it was a good idea to say anything of the sort.
[22:22]	DaemonFC	One thing I've learned about the police the hard way, and NEVER AGAIN, is "Jesus. If they'll lie this much in the report that they're giving to the court, what are they doing in an interrogation room with me?".
[22:23]	DaemonFC	Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz
[22:23]	DaemonFC	@DaemonFC
[22:23]	DaemonFC	Illinois passed a landmark bill, first and only one in America, that says the police can't lie to extract a false confession from a suspect, but only if that suspect is under 18.
[22:23]	DaemonFC	If you're 18, they can lie their ass off, business as usual, and if you're in any other state, they can do it if you're five years old.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz
[22:25]	DaemonFC	@DaemonFC
[22:25]	DaemonFC	People under 18 aren't safe from the police in Illinois due to the "no lying" bill because they still go at kids saying you can have McDonalds if you confess to the murder.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	You can go home if you confess to the murder, and see your parents.
[22:25]	DaemonFC	What? There's 300 people who video taped you at a basketball game in another county?
[22:25]	DaemonFC	Oh shit! Oh shit! ABORT ABORT!
[22:25]	DaemonFC	Then the news in Waukegan talks about it for oh, 2 seconds.

[22:30]	DaemonFC	@DaemonFC
[22:30]	DaemonFC	Does it, like, bother anyone else that the police literally use the same interrogation tactics on kids that a child molester that's trying to get them into a van so they can leave them in the woods with their head cur off?

[22:40]	DaemonFC	That Tom Cruise movie where the alien spaceship projects an image on his screen and keeps asking "Are you still an effective team?".
[22:40]	DaemonFC	And if he says no, there's a robot that comes out and kills both of them.
[22:40]	DaemonFC	The Tet is the "psychiatrist" of that movie.
[22:40]	DaemonFC	If you don't believe me, go to the Illinois DHS Web site under "mental health professional mandatory reporting".
[22:40]	DaemonFC	It's pretty 1984, really.
[22:40]	DaemonFC	You won't be disappointed.

[22:42]	DaemonFC	The public isn't supposed to know about that Web site, but it's not hidden either.
[22:42]	DaemonFC	Once you know about it, you get this deep sense of foreboding about telling your psychiatrist anything in your life that's going wrong, anything at all that you are unhappy about, any complaints you have about what the government has done to you.
[22:42]	DaemonFC	If everyone knew about the Web site, then there would be a 90% improvement in the overall mental health in the State of Illinois.

[22:50]	DaemonFC	What we have here, complete with the video call app, is very THX-1138.
[22:50]	DaemonFC	I hated that movie because it's so uncomfortable to watch, but people go into booths and tell an image on the screen what's going on so that it can determine if they're taking their pills and send robot cops after them if not.
[22:50]	DaemonFC	In that sense, I don't think many people who sat down and watched gave Lucas credit.
[22:50]	DaemonFC	He predicted 2022 in 1971 and the movie is hideous because it depict a failed humanity under an autocratic regime.

[22:52]	DaemonFC	In many ways, dystopian 1970s Sci-Fi is the way that it is because the public was largely educated enough to realize if things kept going a certain way, that's where things would end up.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	And you have to give credit where credit is due.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	The politicians noticed that and fixed the problem.
[22:52]	DaemonFC	They ruined public education so that people would not even notice that this is Hell, everyone is on psychotropics, and tens of millions are unemployed while the news says it's just them.

[23:04]	DaemonFC	MinceR, Of course I have contempt for the court. Who, having been through this, wouldn't?
[23:04]	DaemonFC	The key is to not show it.
[23:05]	DaemonFC	Calm down. Think relaxing things. Kitty cats, the ocean waves, flying a kite on a clear spring day.
[23:05]	DaemonFC	Bad things happen to people who lose their shit in court.
[23:05]	DaemonFC	Well, unless they're black.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	I watched one tell a judge to fuck himself and he was full of shit and all the judge did was block his microphone on Zoom and give him court supervision on the traffic ticket.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	That was mighty liberal of him.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	mjg59_ approved.
[23:06]	DaemonFC	mjg59_ may now romance the judge.

[23:08]	DaemonFC	The courts try to maintain the illusion that they do the people's work by allowing the people to go in and watch, but nobody does.
[23:08]	DaemonFC	I think it ought to be a law that every time a criminal court is in session, there have to be observers that go in, your employer has to give you the day off, and everyone can get a good look and decide for themselves.

[23:55]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR2], My psychiatrist was impressed when he asked about the plea bargaining.
[23:56]	DaemonFC	I said, "Well, it's basically just Game Theory. Their job is to extract the worst possible outcome for you, your job is to break the equilibrium and steer them towards the outcome that is the least disastrous. It's at this point that relative guilt or innocence stops mattering, and only the outcome matters.".
[23:58]	DaemonFC	I said, "So, basically I had to look and see where they were going with this and then change my strategy to crash their case into the rocks and get them to agree to something just to say they got something and move on.".
[23:58]	DaemonFC	"I can be stunningly logical when prison rape is a possibility, you know."
