00:11 IsambardPrince; MinceR, I liked that Vietnam protest song where the guy gets convicted of public dumping.

00:11 IsambardPrince; Then tells the guy at the draft board he's shocked that he'd have to prove he'd been rehabilitated of THAT so he would be fit to go murder people.

00:11 IsambardPrince; And they said "We don't like your type."

02:26 IsambardPrince; Mandy asked what a court martial is. I told him "There's a separate set of federal laws that only apply to people who are in the military."

02:26 IsambardPrince; There was a federal sodomy law until 2013, but only if you were in the military.

02:26 IsambardPrince; "Oh good, it pays almost nothing, people are shooting at me, and I can go to prison if I have sex with someone..."

02:27 IsambardPrince; MinceR, Ask the recruiter about signing up today.

02:28 IsambardPrince; SERVICE GUARANTEES CITIZENSHIP (except that it won't under Trump, they'll just use you and throw you away officially....fun fun)

02:28 IsambardPrince; Would you like to know more?

02:31 *oarion7 has quit (Quit: Running IRC on a charmed medieval abacus.)

02:31 IsambardPrince; I liked what one Indiana judge had to say about the sodomy law in the 1960s.

02:32 IsambardPrince; He said that we lived in a time where people were about to land on the moon and the government was trying to enforce a law that was written in language "befitting an era with witch hunts".

03:46 IsambardPrince; Honestly they'll have their hands full with the ones with a criminal record, and they know it.

03:48 IsambardPrince; I don't think we should be looking to "make America white again" or any of that nonsense, but we should be looking at how to get criminals out of our country and do it quickly, and I don't mean a traffic ticket, I mean felonies, and crimes of violence.

03:49 IsambardPrince; We have too much garbage here already that frankly, there's no way to get rid of it.

03:50 IsambardPrince; Like my dad said, our system of welfare programs and on demand abortion basically encourages the worst people to have the most babies.

03:50 IsambardPrince; The people who should be getting abortions are the people without the presence of mind to do it, and they know they'll get welfare in the end anyway so what incentive do they have?

03:52 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR3], There's really no net gain in denying H visas if the work will just be done by someone "in" India instead.

03:52 IsambardPrince; Microsoft may have lost their H visas last time but they just hire someone in India, so no new jobs get created in the US.

03:52 IsambardPrince; Makes no sense at all.

03:53 IsambardPrince; H visas aren't terribly risky because there's no path to citizenship. We can get rid of them whenever it's convenient.

03:53 IsambardPrince; But while they're here, they still have to pay into Social Security and Medicare, and never get benefits.

03:53 IsambardPrince; Federal and State taxes.

03:54 IsambardPrince; Unfortunately, marriage green cards are a possibility for H visa people.

03:54 IsambardPrince; I say unfortunately because I've been hearing stories on Reddit like the woman who married an Indian H visa person and he told her that he'd kill her if she dropped her sponsorship.

03:55 IsambardPrince; He said "In my country we just kill the wives."

03:56 IsambardPrince; Most H visas are given to people from India.

03:56 IsambardPrince; I think AOS green cards for people who entered on H visas should require a longer "conditional residence" period.

03:57 IsambardPrince; They have one of those to see if your marriage will fall apart.

03:57 IsambardPrince; Or if you've married some sort of criminal.

03:57 IsambardPrince; they don't SAY that, but that's why.

03:58 IsambardPrince; It basically gives the government a couple years to back out of it and order them to leave if they turned out to have misled you, or they commit a serious offense.

08:16 IsambardPrince; schestowitz-pi, Blu Ray players really dropped in price.

08:16 IsambardPrince; You can get one for about $50 now.

08:17 IsambardPrince; That's like....I don't know. Three, maybe four eggs?

08:17 IsambardPrince; :D

08:17 schestowitz[TR3]; because they become obsolete

08:17 schestowitz[TR3]; and only fools would still buy these

08:17 schestowitz[TR3]; vhs players would be worth more

08:17 schestowitz[TR3]; at least many cassettes still exist

08:18 IsambardPrince; Yeah, I suppose all of the good Studio Ghibli movies did get a VHS release come to think of it.

08:18 IsambardPrince; Those are probably still worth something for the novelty factor.

08:20 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR3], I think Blu Ray will be around for quite a while.

08:20 IsambardPrince; Unfortunately, DVD will probably be the last format we get where the copy restriction system is easy to bypass.

08:21 IsambardPrince; But there's people ripping and sharing Blu Rays.

08:21 IsambardPrince; So we'll have good quality rips forever.

08:22 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR3], They seem to have stopped bothering to bump the DRM versioning on Blu Rays some time ago.

08:22 IsambardPrince; The last update to the player I have came in 2019.

08:22 IsambardPrince; And it still plays new releases.

08:23 IsambardPrince; I recall that the 2009 player I bought only reliably played discs up until Interstellar.

08:23 IsambardPrince; They did a major DRM versionaling bump and all of a sudden it took that disc about 3 minutes to load.

08:23 IsambardPrince; Eventually you just put in a new release and it never loaded at all.

08:24 IsambardPrince; It's obvious what they were doing.

08:24 IsambardPrince; First they annoyed you into submission with a 3 minute load time.

08:24 IsambardPrince; Then they just bricked it as far as new discs went.

08:24 IsambardPrince; The hardware didn't fail.

08:25 schestowitz[TR3]; my 90s cds all work ok

08:25 schestowitz[TR3]; didn't find one that jitters... yet

08:25 schestowitz[TR3]; i am sure one or more might do

08:25 schestowitz[TR3]; but they don't fail the timetest so far

08:25 IsambardPrince; Well, it's like cars and seatbelts, right?

08:26 IsambardPrince; 80s and 90s cars didn't do anything if you didn't put your seatbelt on.

08:26 IsambardPrince; Then in the 2000s they flashed a red light and went CHIME CHIME CHIME CHIME CHIME CHIME CHIME!!!!

08:26 IsambardPrince; Then recently, I borrowed a car from a dealership while mine was being repaired.

08:27 IsambardPrince; And it said "To shift, you need to fasten your seatbelt."

08:29 IsambardPrince; The state passing seatbelt laws always struck me as odd.

08:29 IsambardPrince; Like, they don't care if you die when you run out of food or your landlord triples the rent.

08:29 IsambardPrince; Giving you a $15 nuisance ticket doesn't seem very profitable.

10:29 IsambardPrince; "I don't even know how restaurants stay in business. Cooking isn't difficult. I think that maybe people noticed that when the restaurants were ordered closed.

10:29 IsambardPrince; I not only noticed that eating out has been getting more expensive faster than buying groceries, but the quality has taken a dump.

10:29 IsambardPrince; TGI Fridays and Applebees used to be okay, and the last time I went to either, they were not what they once were. Fridays carged me almost $80 for my spouse and I to eat there and brought me, a steak I could barely chew and some unseasoned steamed broccoli, and instant mashed potatoes.

10:29 IsambardPrince; If this is all you can get in a restaurant for $80 for two people, f**k this.

10:29 IsambardPrince; It wasn't that long ago they had those 2 for $20 things and you got a decent amount of food, and it was good.
