01:35 DaemonFC; There were some watch companies that noticed that customers liked to see a lot of "jewels" so they started putting 100 jewels in because jewels are synthetic nowadays anyway unless the watch is the pinnacle of exorbitance, so why the hell not.
01:35 DaemonFC; Then they only used about 17-24 of the jewels in the actual movement and the rest were in there somewhere not doing anything.
01:35 DaemonFC; But the backing said "100 jewels".
01:35 DaemonFC; The oldest trick in marketing is to take something stupid and convince people it's better.

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?
02:22 DaemonFC; And with Gates in the room, no less.
02:22 DaemonFC; Trying to "buy a Nobel Prize" through the connections.
02:22 DaemonFC; Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz
02:22 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
02:22 DaemonFC; Most of the people who can be compared to Jean Valjean, are, like myself, reduced to pleading guilty to the lowest misdemeanor because they can't properly defend themselves from utterly bogus charges and then having the State of Illinois try to make the suffering perpetual for however long you might live.
02:22 DaemonFC; I got a call from my lawyer today. Court was scrubbed next week because they have a trial and we now go in for Expungement on the 19th.....unless that happens again.

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.

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.

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.
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]; 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_, ^
09:13 DaemonFC; Wakey wakey, hands off snakey!
09:15 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Mandy doesn't get why I like to sleep from 5 AM to 1 PM or so.
09:15 DaemonFC; I told him that this way I'm fresher and more rested in total than if I tried to go to sleep and had it broken up every night taking him to work at 4 AM and then trying to go back to bed.

09:21 DaemonFC; Judith Dunn Well to be honest, not so great. First a cop pulls me over, then the doctor says I have a year to live, and then the boss laid me off, and I get home and my wife's in bed with some other guy.

16:38 schestowitz[TR]; but not good to say that
16:38 MinceR; it's a gigantic pile of garbage
16:38 schestowitz[TR]; because some "enterprises" use that
16:38 schestowitz[TR]; yeah
16:38 schestowitz[TR]; we used to do debian servers for a clirent
16:38 schestowitz[TR]; inc. SMB
16:38 schestowitz[TR]; some people there used windows

16:39 MinceR; sftp clients are available even for Backdoors
16:39 schestowitz[TR]; fish://, ssh
16:39 schestowitz[TR]; well, ftps or sfpt is that
16:39 schestowitz[TR]; same over ssh
16:39 MinceR; sftp is file transfer over ssh
16:39 MinceR; ftps is ftp over ssl/tls
16:40 schestowitz[TR]; https is http+ssl
16:40 MinceR; i don't really recommend ftp to anyone, it's a mess
16:40 schestowitz[TR]; it's widely supported
16:40 MinceR; badly
16:40 schestowitz[TR]; and we sometimes deploeyd that
16:40 schestowitz[TR]; the users probably used backdoor10 or something
16:40 MinceR; find 2 implementations that have the same idea of how ftp is supposed to work on top of ssl/tls
16:40 MinceR; i doubt you can
16:41 MinceR; and good luck getting it through a firewall, too
16:41 schestowitz[TR]; and then do hashsums
16:41 schestowitz[TR]; because you still don't trust the outcome
16:41 schestowitz[TR]; (nhs-related client)
16:41 MinceR; they break up the port into 2 bytes, convert those to strings and that goes over the control channel as text
16:41 schestowitz[TR]; a proper transfer protocl does this properly
16:41 schestowitz[TR]; as part of the transmisionm protocol
16:41 MinceR; and the firewall needs to know what port they want to use
16:41 schestowitz[TR]; but not ftp
16:42 schestowitz[TR]; so you start sending hashes over email and all that
16:42 schestowitz[TR]; "security"
16:42 schestowitz[TR]; don't ask how the files were passed
16:42 schestowitz[TR]; it's facepalm-worthy
16:42 schestowitz[TR]; no proper file server
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; some colleague was tossing files at google drive
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; and amazon buckets
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; it's insane
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; or ticketing system
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; without any filewall
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; anyone can access it
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; and the passwords are not safe either
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; remember: lastpass is safe
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; accoridng to lasspass!
16:43 schestowitz[TR]; pathological liars believing other pathological liars
16:44 *phanes has quit (connection closed)

17:22 schestowitz[TR]; anywaym there is worker saturation in tech right now

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; 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.

22:22 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!

22:30 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; You know what psychiatrist appointments on "apps" remind me of?
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; Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz
22:42 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
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; @DaemonFC
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; Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz
22:52 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
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.

23:08 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."
