beginning of new day, April 8

00:00 DaemonFC; It's like mass shootings. It's a man 90% of the time. Since the news refers to "trans women" as women, when they say a mass shooter was a woman, you need to investigate this.

00:01 DaemonFC; Because there's all of a sudden a lot of trans women doing mass shootings, and it just proves same brain.

00:22 DaemonFC; Nobody pointed out that "Audrey" Hale's hate crime was against Christians, and specifically by murdering their children.

00:23 DaemonFC; Similarly, when the media covered Elliot Rodgers as an example of "White Incel" they forgot completely, to mention that he was half-Asian.

00:23 DaemonFC; They just left that out entirely. Didn't fit the narrative.

00:23 DaemonFC; You can't trust the news. It's where inconvenient facts go to die.

00:26 TR Bot; Blows my mind: North Carolina woman made $50K in car payments and barely reduced the $84K loan. How to avoid this

00:26 DaemonFC; Dumb bitch signs horrible car loan. National News.

00:26 DaemonFC; schestowitz: There's a reason why I use top tier consumables in the Buick and change them out frequently.

00:26 DaemonFC; The car has to last a while.

00:27 DaemonFC; The electronic throttle bodies are usually pretty reliable. More reliable than the one with the accelerator cables. Used to be that in the midwest the accelerator cable could rust and snap on you at an inopportune time.

00:28 DaemonFC; Or get snagged and hold open the throttle.

00:28 DaemonFC; They can still suffer carbon fouling, so you do need to clean them.

00:28 DaemonFC; Nobody ever does.

00:29 TR News; "Struggling in the quiet moments is something I've been working on with my therapist for quite a while. This has been a problem my whole life: I get home, it's quite and dark, and I'm all alone. My friends are busy, I have no one really to talk to, so now what?" gemini://thewomaninmyeye.org/log/loneliness-and-solitude.gmi

=> ↺ gemini://thewomaninmyeye.org/log/loneliness-and-solitude.gmi

00:30 DaemonFC; Most people don't know that you can actually damage the throttle plate by pushing it open while cleaning it. You should turn the key to "on" without starting the car and have someone push the accelerator down. It will still command the throttle open even without the car running. You can clean it then. Or push down the accelerator with a wood board and push the driver seat forward to prop it.

00:31 TR News; "Good evening, I feel incredibly exhausted, going out of town tomorrow despite going out of town so many times these past couple months, but hopefully this will be the last one for a long time. Recently, I have been thinking more about what having a child will be like. Not that I have any plans for it in the near future, but it is a thought I keep pondering on." gemini://midnight.pub/posts/1790

00:34 DaemonFC; > Blaisey Arnold knows this firsthand, three years into owning her Chevy Tahoe. The mom of three says in her viral TikTok video that she financed the vehicle at $84,000 and paid $1,400 every month for the past three years, which comes to around $50,000.

00:34 DaemonFC; > Yet the North Carolina mom says she still owes at least $74,000 on the car loan.

00:34 DaemonFC; Just in time for it to start acting up.

00:34 DaemonFC; I'll take "How does 14% interest work?"

00:35 DaemonFC; "In another video, Arnold says that her husband pays 14% APR on his 2020 GMC AT4 Sierra 1500. She adds that his monthly payment $1,600 is greater than her own."

00:35 DaemonFC; This is insane.

00:35 DaemonFC; This is beyond insane.

00:37 DaemonFC; > Arnold has decided to get rid of her Tahoe, though she doesnt say whether her husband plans to give away his truck.

00:37 DaemonFC; > Do not pay so much for something that is so irrelevant, she warns her followers.

00:37 DaemonFC; > Arnold decided to ditch the Tahoe and buy an Audi in cash so she wont have any more car payments. The reason she can do this despite being in major car debt is because her TikTok career has taken off.

00:37 DaemonFC; How does she have any cash to buy a car with cash after dumping so much money into a car loan she's not making any progress on for three years?

00:37 DaemonFC; "In one of her videos, Arnold shows that she made nearly $4,000 off of just two TikTik videos in March."

00:37 DaemonFC; And gave it to GM?

00:38 DaemonFC; "Paying cash for a car is the best way to avoid any interest, but its not possible for most Americans."

00:38 DaemonFC; Buy a beater car.

05:32 DaemonFC; There's a lot of undesirable hellholes in the world to share a land border with, and Europe is getting it at least as bad as we are.

05:33 DaemonFC; The Venezuelans don't stop at breaking the illegal entry law. Once they're here, they break the ones against shoplifting, illegal firearms, carjacking, rape, and needing a license and registration to drive a car, and working without authorization too.

05:34 DaemonFC; Then they all pile 15 people (mostly kids) into studio apartments.

05:34 DaemonFC; If they ever do get out of the homeless shelters that the government has NEVER funded for homeless Americans.

05:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz: I contacted some of the local Aldermen.

05:35 DaemonFC; They did pass the bill I asked them to.

05:36 DaemonFC; The one that makes it a crime to drop illegal immigrants off here without a permit for it from the city. The consequence is a fine of $15,000 per illegal alien and forfeiture of the bus.

05:37 DaemonFC; We haven't had any drop-offs since then. The fine goes to the driver of the bus and the bus company doesn't get their bus back because we auction it and apply the value to the fine.

05:37 DaemonFC; They can't seem to find many bus drivers that are willing to be fined a quarter million dollars if they're caught dropping off illegal aliens.

05:38 DaemonFC; Before the ordinance passed, the local police intercepted one of the buses and told everyone to get back on it and then the police escorted the bus about 50 miles or so to Chicago.

05:39 DaemonFC; The sentiment is that nobody else in the State wants to be the next Chicago, with thousands of nasty lawbreaking parasites camped out in a tent city outside the police station, library, and town hall, robbing our stores.

18:59 schestowitz; c, python etc.

18:59 schestowitz; and then the gui is another MASSIVE lib

18:59 schestowitz; so the program is yours and free

18:59 schestowitz; the toollkit

18:59 schestowitz; is not

18:59 schestowitz; then comes qt7

18:59 schestowitz; and qt6 is "old"

18:59 schestowitz; and some interfaces changed

18:59 schestowitz; so you don't need to adapt your code per se

18:59 schestowitz; but the gui parts

7 PM, April 8

19:00 schestowitz; you end up working on the gui

19:00 schestowitz; not your program

19:00 psydruid; that's why your application should only be loosely coupled with a specific GUI library

19:00 schestowitz; and ime it's a waste of time

19:00 schestowitz; right, so even inn 2001 i made my programs cli

19:00 psydruid; audacity got it completely wrong by mixing application and GUI code

19:00 schestowitz; and gui only optional

19:00 psydruid; everything is jumbled together

19:00 schestowitz; the gui is just a front end for the cli stuff
