00:00 DaemonFC; If you shoot a deer that you think might be diseased, are you going to butcher it and keep it for yourself, or try to pass it off on some dumb guy that doesn't know anything about it?

00:01 DaemonFC; So they're buying venison that is basically unregulated. There's no telling what kind of deer they got it from or if they've stored it safely.

00:01 DaemonFC; I've eaten deer meat before. It's not my favorite. You have to soak it in milk to draw out the "gamey" taste and then you have to throw out the milk.

00:03 DaemonFC; I used to go fishing at the reservoirs and haul it all back to the house and bread it and deep fry it. It was pretty good. But they said that you should eat it no more than about 5 times that year to keep your exposure to mercury down.

00:04 DaemonFC; Like I said, you know, everything modern humans do fucks up the environment in ways that can only be seen by people who have direct exposure to what they're eating.

00:04 DaemonFC; So the liberals have no idea what the real threats are.

00:04 DaemonFC; It's not climate change, it's toxic waste.

00:05 DaemonFC; But the government has regulated this toxic waste to the point where it gets out there and contaminates the fish and then even if you have a big haul, you can't eat all of it.

00:05 DaemonFC; And there's a lot of bad things in the drinking water, which is all perfectly legal you know.

00:06 DaemonFC; Why's it legal? It would cost the government something if they did something about it. Like, lead.

00:06 DaemonFC; The last thing the government actually cares about is how much lead is in your water.

00:06 DaemonFC; They set tougher standards them they cheat to make it look like it passed.

01:07 DaemonFC; Extremist slogans?

01:07 DaemonFC; Since when has it become extreme to want the country for the people who have a right to live there?

01:08 DaemonFC; Certainly I don't have a right to show up wherever I want, demand their welfare, and get on TikTok and say "I'm allergic to work and you're all fools for allowing me this!" like the guy from Venezuela did under Biden.

01:08 DaemonFC; Apparently embarrassing Biden is the only way to actually get arrested by ICE.

01:18 DaemonFC; Are there really that many "scam colleges" out there that Biden can approve all of these based on students being "scammed".

01:18 DaemonFC; If so, why aren't the "colleges" being shuttered and the faculty being led out in handcuffs?

01:25 DaemonFC; But it took about 30 years to happen.

01:25 DaemonFC; From Clinton to Biden, just giving everything away to China.

01:25 DaemonFC; And now with the US a dead dried-out husk, they make these grandiose claims that we'll "contain China".

01:26 DaemonFC; I doubt we're looking at "the absolute end" of American greatness/power, but we'll probably continue to "exist" in a reduced way, like Europe.

01:27 DaemonFC; Especially if Biden gets a chance to spend 4 more years with his boot on our neck.

01:27 DaemonFC; Or whoever is actually in there exercising power claiming to be Biden.

01:27 DaemonFC; Hiding him from the media.

01:55 TR News; Rust in Linux is also proof that Linus Torvalds is no longer in charge of either of his main projects.

03:32 TR Bot; Techrights Guardian Digital, Inc (linuxsecurity.com) Has Resorted to Plagiarism by Chatbots, Flooding the World Wide Web With Fake 'Articles' Wrongly Attributed to Brittany Day

03:33 TR News; Getting caught using chatbot to make 'articles' (EVEN ONCE!) is a VERY big deal. Not worth the risk. After that everything is PREsumed fake.

03:35 TR News; TikTok trash is drowning out YouTube. 10-second and 30-second videos, some of which generated by "app", some by bots, or both...

03:35 TR News; Both YouTube search and Gulag Search lost control of... well, quality control. A growing % of the WWW is trash and it's not trivial to figure out what parts.

03:36 TR News; If the WWW is drowned out by pure trash, it'll feed into LLMs, reinforcing that same trash

03:37 TR News; And again, Google "HEY HI" (LLM) is NOT for medical advice. That's just Gulag scraping the bottom of the revenue barrel by clever plagiarism (that isn't even done RIGHT).

03:38 TR News; Wikipedia is meanwhile being drowned out by PR firms. On many topics we already have better sites, e.g. https://www.britannica.com/

03:38 TR News; More of something (quantity) is not wealth or abundance.

03:39 TR News; And driving 10 faulty cars is not as good as driving one very solid, reliable car

03:40 TR News; WWW nowadays has an inverse incentive towards quality, akin to sporting events where doping is presumed acceptable

03:41 TR News; So as an analogy, today's Web is like a sporting event where all men take steroids and women compete with men on estrogen. Sooner or later the audience (Web, spectators in sport etc.) lose interest.

03:42 TR News; The WWW is not a company and it is only centralised at DNS level (which isn't even the WWW). So there's nobody who can enforce quality, it is rather chaotic.

03:42 TR News; Meanwhile the man who started the WWW wanted us to think that Microsoft GitHub (proprietary) and JS are the better substitute to the Web. He could have, instead, promoted something like Gemini Protocol.

05:06 schestowitz[TR2]; to sell a false impression of "popularity"

05:06 schestowitz[TR2]; and try to get ahead based on these lies

05:06 DaemonFC; Right now I listen to Wagner.

05:06 schestowitz[TR2]; "NAZI!"

05:07 schestowitz[TR2]; (Wagner predated nazism)

05:08 DaemonFC; Yes, by ~50-80 years.

05:08 DaemonFC; He was long dead before anyone knew who Hitler was.

05:09 DaemonFC; Hitler and Goebbels at work again.

05:09 DaemonFC; Tarnishing the works of someone who would have never heard of anything like Nazism.

05:10 DaemonFC; The US government survived an attempted overthrow and coup and Civil War.

05:10 DaemonFC; But even the Confederates were nowhere near as bad as the Nazis.

05:11 DaemonFC; They wouldn't kill the blacks (that was their valuable property, under the laws of the time). And slavery would have ended eventually whether or not the coup was successful in the end.

05:11 DaemonFC; And the UK was sort of cheering from the bleachers for the coup to succeed.

05:12 DaemonFC; Which is why the US government allowed an invasion of Canada to raise some Hell up there.

05:12 DaemonFC; Still "British North America", but not for long after that.

05:13 DaemonFC; Because they no longer trusted the British to protect them after only 1,000 men nearly took over an entire province.

05:13 DaemonFC; :)

05:13 DaemonFC; Would have had the federal government not choked off their supply lines after Canada begged us to stop them.

05:16 DaemonFC; So the whole thing kind of turned into "You'd better be quiet up there and hope we win."

05:23 DaemonFC; Nope, hate em, hate their guts. Boo!

05:25 DaemonFC; "The government will punish me if I say I have a positive view of Americans, so my view is very very negative."

05:25 DaemonFC; And, general decadent Western European arrogance.

05:26 DaemonFC; Notably, we're underwater with the UK, where they managed to elect Rishi Sunak and have a King that mooches off of them and waves around a scepter with a $400 million USD stolen African diamond leftover from the days of empire.

05:26 DaemonFC; :)

05:26 DaemonFC; But only by a few points.

05:28 DaemonFC; I think it was John Oliver that showed a clip of a British museum curator saying that the African people were far too uncivilized to be trusted with the museum artifacts that the British looted from their countries.

05:28 DaemonFC; The attitude outlived the vestiges of empire by going on three decades.

20:04 psydroid2; "Running gnome-control-center is only supported under GNOME and Unity, exiting"

20:04 psydroid2; congratulations, I suppose

20:05 psydroid2; I have only fluxbox running here and I need to find a way to set the default browser to Falkon rather than Firefox

20:23 lord_phanes; psydroid2: what "default" chooser are you using?

20:23 lord_phanes; just go to your flubox menu rc file and see whats being launched

20:30 psydroid2; lord_phanes: I didn't change anything, this is pretty much a fresh install. But I'll have a look at it. I usually just run gnome-control-center once to set the default applications, although that's probably not the best way to do it.

20:31 lord_phanes; no it wouldnt be

20:31 lord_phanes; gnome apps are dog shit intended as a pipeline to a proprietary landscape

20:32 lord_phanes; all you really need to manage fluxbox is vim and a terminal emulator but there are some addons that give you some click and drool options

20:32 lord_phanes; fluxbox is a good transitionary WM to a self-created composite DE made up of a hodge podge of various otherwise unrelated utilities

20:33 lord_phanes; so is XFCE, believe it or not

20:33 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2]: The Nazi People's Court did make an appearance in both Rommel (2012) and Valkyrie (2008). I have to say I was impressed by those "judges".

20:33 lord_phanes; i use i3-wm these days

20:33 DaemonFC; The war is being lost, the government would collapse about half a year later.

20:34 psydroid2; I think I've found it: /etc/alternatives/open

20:34 psydroid2; and then the BROWSER line

20:34 lord_phanes; did you check your gd rc file to see if that mechanism is even being used

20:37 psydroid2; I don't even know what the gd rc file

20:37 psydroid2; but this is Debian, so it probably is

20:37 lord_phanes; psydroid2: go to ~/.fluxbox or ~/.config/fluxbox and look for a file called 'menu.rc' or some shit

20:38 lord_phanes; the 'gd' there stands for 'god damn' as in 'god damn this is why i stopped doing end user support because end users dont listen for shit'

20:38 psydroid2; there is ~/.fluxbox/menu, but it doesn't really contain anything

20:38 lord_phanes; cat it

20:39 psydroid2; [begin] (fluxbox) [include] (/etc/X11/fluxbox/fluxbox-menu) [end]

20:40 lord_phanes; so check out what is there

20:40 lord_phanes; cat /etc/X11/fluxbox/fluxbox-menu if its a file

20:40 psydroid2; there is no mention of Firefox in /etc/X11/fluxbox/fluxbox-menu

20:40 lord_phanes; jfc

20:41 lord_phanes; dude

20:41 lord_phanes; maybe consider continuing to use gnome until you can do the instructions thing

20:41 psydroid2; I just want links to be opened in another browser from this IRC client

20:41 psydroid2; I haven't used GNOME in 10 years lol

20:42 lord_phanes; or whatever you use that apparently doesn't require being able to troubleshoot

20:42 DaemonFC; GNOME is generally tended to by people paid to work on it who are not doing it because they're Free Software people.

20:42 psydroid2; well, I can troubleshoot, but I don't know where the default applications are stored

20:42 DaemonFC; It's sort of like the apple farmer who was interviewed by the news about why his apples were so bad.

20:42 psydroid2; and Firefox is something tied to GTK/GNOME

20:42 psydroid2; I'll find a way, don't worry

20:43 DaemonFC; And he responded that he doesn't get paid a penny for how they taste.

20:43 lord_phanes; i was about to tell you psydroid2 by showing you how to find out and you went full amber heard and shit the bed

20:43 DaemonFC; I don't think that they've allowed Holly Million to write anything.

20:43 DaemonFC; At least not that I've seen lately.

20:43 lord_phanes; with stuff like that though its a safer assumption that they -cant- follow instructions though and isnt usually them just not listening. they literally dont know how to "try"

20:44 psydroid2; lord_phanes: it's ok, thanks for your help and I'll spend the rest of the night with amber heard shitting all over the place

20:44 lord_phanes; ole psydroid2 pulled 'n amber

20:46 lord_phanes; its -probably- your alternatives package at /etc/alternatives but i guess you'll have to try random shit to see

20:47 DaemonFC; Why have Holly Billion when we can have.....puts pinky to his lip....Holly Million?

20:48 MinceR; :)

20:48 lord_phanes; who

20:48 DaemonFC; Dr. Evil. He was always trying to ransom the world for less than the cost of his diabolical plan would cost.

20:48 DaemonFC; Because he was frozen in the 1960s when money was worth more.

20:49 DaemonFC; And because James Bond villains always had ridiculous plans that would cost more than the amount they wanted and bring in less than legitimate business activities, which is where Number Two came in.

20:49 lord_phanes; no who is holly

20:49 DaemonFC; Ahhh, the

20:49 lord_phanes; i can see why you always ramble about beater cars, when you dont youre incoherent

20:49 DaemonFC; "PRESIDENT OF GNOME!"

20:50 *lord_phanes pictures half the channel in the same room all huffing spray paint together when he comes here

20:53 *parsifal has quit (Quit: Leaving)

20:53 lord_phanes; this time series forecast only gets like a 70% accuracy rate :/

20:54 lord_phanes; RMSE normalized to price hovers around 3.339%

20:55 lord_phanes; MAPE and SMAPEs are wild though depending on the symbol, ranges between like 1% to 90% with an erratic distribution

20:57 DaemonFC; MinceR: I just read an article that barely any US coal plants will shut down this year.

20:57 DaemonFC; So much for President Bye-Den.

20:57 MinceR; very exciting

20:57 DaemonFC; He has about half a year left before he's toast.

20:57 lord_phanes; yeah his career is over at the end of this presidency

20:57 DaemonFC; And he's talking about setting climate change goals for the 2050s.

20:58 DaemonFC; It doesn't matter how much coal capacity we shut down.

20:58 DaemonFC; The Chinese are building more. They build them to typical rickety Communist standards.

20:58 DaemonFC; Even more horrific than American standards for a coal plant from the 1960s.

20:58 lord_phanes; lol and trump doesn't know how to handle the for. pol. issues biden created. we are going to be eating gen Y as fucking food after the wars.

20:58 DaemonFC; Just build shit and build a lot of it.

20:58 DaemonFC; And throw more coal in if you need more power.

20:58 DaemonFC; And then gas your own citizens.

20:58 DaemonFC; Then lie about the air pollution.

20:59 DaemonFC; And demand climate concessions from all the other countries in a Paris Agreement that requires nothing from China.

20:59 DaemonFC; Agreed to by European morons, Canadian limp-wristed idiots, and Joe Biden.

9 PM, May 27

21:00 lord_phanes; relax, that carbon tax will make the eart get gooder backer better

21:00 DaemonFC; Seriously, all China has to do with the "powers that be" in the rest of the world is show up with a wish list and get everything it wants and make the rest of us suffer.

21:00 DaemonFC; And the rest of the "world leaders" agree to all of it and leave and say they got meaningful concessions from the Chinese.

21:00 lord_phanes; if your opponent is someone like donald trump, and youre still the dangerously bad one, you have really, really, really fucked it up

21:01 DaemonFC; Apparently, meaningful concessions from China means they get to build unlimited 30% efficient coal plants with no pollution scrubbers.

21:02 DaemonFC; With plans to triple the size of their Navy, and conduct carrier-killer missile tests with no repercussions.

21:03 DaemonFC; It's unknown whether the US fleets could intercept Chinese long-range carrier-killer missiles. It's possible. I mean, if the US can do it they wouldn't tell anyone, if that's not possible they sure won't tell anyone.

21:05 DaemonFC; Thanks to years of Democrat budgets prioritizing welfare being thrown at the "single mother" (broken) families they spent so much time encouraging, a lot of our military technologies are aging. They've held up so far mainly because the Chinese weren't undergoing an overnight modernization and the Russians rely on stuff that was built worse, and is even older, and Iranian stuff is crap.

21:05 DaemonFC; And because our stuff was designed well in the 70s, 80s, and 90s.

21:05 DaemonFC; But.... How much longer do we get away with this?

21:06 DaemonFC; Almost certainly if we have anything that could intercept carrier-killers, it would be something like the SM-3.

21:06 DaemonFC; Those are very expensive to use and most of them will miss.

21:06 lord_phanes; jesus christ thats stupid

21:06 DaemonFC; Meaning the fleet will have to use multiples per inbound missile.

21:06 lord_phanes; why do normies always do this

21:06 lord_phanes; why do you think allocation to welfare programs has any impact at all on allocation to military budgets

21:07 lord_phanes; they are not mutually exclusive

21:07 DaemonFC; On paper they're not.

21:07 lord_phanes; nor are they comparable in scale

21:07 DaemonFC; But as the deficits get larger, the money you spend on anything is worth less and less.

21:07 DaemonFC; Due to inflation.

21:07 DaemonFC; Which the government has been lying to us about for many years.

21:07 DaemonFC; Wages stagnate too, so tax revenues drop.

21:08 lord_phanes; yeah its a runaway train

21:08 lord_phanes; the us gov is running amok

21:08 DaemonFC; The government may raise the minimum wage once every thirty years or so.

21:08 lord_phanes; this will probably end poory for most workers

21:08 lord_phanes; *poorly

21:08 DaemonFC; Then many people get to work for the "same" money for thirty years, while it loses 5-6% every year they do.

21:09 lord_phanes; i dont understand why people do that

21:09 lord_phanes; when i want a raise i go

21:09 DaemonFC; The Democrats have been a terrible party for labor. They made sure that the last time a federal minimum wage bill came up, that they would get Kyrsten Sinema to kill it and then resign from Congress.

21:09 lord_phanes; "hey boss. gimme dat stack"

21:09 DaemonFC; Blame her, also, ou can't do anything about her.

21:10 DaemonFC; Every time it comes down to a choice between improving the lives of the working class that they still claim to love so much, or losing elections and leaving us with people like Bush or Trump, they'll throw the election.

21:11 DaemonFC; Because it's really the same Party in there, may as well be.

21:12 DaemonFC; [15:09] <lord_phanes> "hey boss. gimme dat stack"

21:12 DaemonFC; And then he says "Go work somewhere else!" and there's nowhere else.

21:12 DaemonFC; :P

21:13 lord_phanes; i dont have that issue

21:13 lord_phanes; when i want to change jobs i just answer my phone for a couple days

21:13 DaemonFC; Most people at this point are so demoralized that they do the bare minimum amount to not get fired.

21:13 DaemonFC; Burger King can spend $300 million dollars on a new lobby but the lobby isn't their problem.

21:14 DaemonFC; It's that they're charging too much, it's that they haven't invested in cleaning the lobby that they already have, so it's disgusting.

21:14 DaemonFC; They haven't really done anything like self-service kiosks.

21:14 lord_phanes; i really dont come here to brag myself up, some of you guys just have such a "disgruntled slave" mentality that it astounds me, like, why would you accept conditions like you say are mandatory, when, in fact, they're not, and i prove that constantly

21:14 DaemonFC; Say what you want about McDonald's, but they invest in the bottom line.

21:15 DaemonFC; lord_phanes: I got the bill for the Capital One Walmart Card this month.

21:15 DaemonFC; I spent nothing there this month.

21:15 DaemonFC; Not a single penny.

21:15 lord_phanes; for me the key is to work in a field that you generally enjoy so that "doing the minimum" is "doing what i enjoy as long as i want", which is always more than required of you at a job you actually enjoy

21:15 DaemonFC; They've crippled us. Now there will be no spending at their store.

21:16 DaemonFC; They don't seem to understand the basics of running the business they're in.

21:16 lord_phanes; DaemonFC - is chronically underemployed; - complains about his financial condition

21:17 DaemonFC; They've squeezed and they've squeezed and as a result, nobody even shops there anymore.

21:17 DaemonFC; There was no Memorial Day grocery shopping to speak of.

21:17 DaemonFC; But they have the news say they're doing great.

21:17 lord_phanes; so dont shop at walmart

21:17 lord_phanes; i dont

21:17 DaemonFC; They were stunned this year when nobody came and in fact, it was slower than the typical weekend.

21:17 lord_phanes; walmart is for the poors

21:18 DaemonFC; Right, I just don't spend any money I don't have to.

21:18 DaemonFC; At some point you can't earn more.

21:18 lord_phanes; ^ thats a lie

21:18 DaemonFC; But you can pull all discretionary spending.

21:18 DaemonFC; The rich are always condescending.

21:18 DaemonFC; Saying people are poor because they spend money.

21:19 DaemonFC; That's true of some people.

21:19 lord_phanes; i mean, you do technically have an earning capacity, but, you can earn way more than youre currently earning, you just dont want to invest the time and resources to doit

21:19 DaemonFC; For many people, if they pull up to Starbucks and buy a coffee per day, they'll be broke by the end of the month.

21:19 DaemonFC; If they knock that type of thing off, some of the pain goes away for very little sacrifice.

21:20 DaemonFC; My cousin got in trouble with Credit One Bank (among all the other problems) out of Nevada.

21:20 lord_phanes; i mean, i dont do starbucks since i own my own espresso machine, but when i did starbucks it was not a noticeable expense. if starbucks is making you broke, that's not a spending problem, thats an earning problem.

21:20 DaemonFC; She alone earns 350% of what me and my spouse do, combined.

21:20 DaemonFC; 350%

21:20 DaemonFC; But she's always doing dumb shit.

21:20 DaemonFC; Starbucks every day.

21:20 DaemonFC; Expensive streaming apps.

21:20 lord_phanes; 350% of WIC checks and intersection donations? what luxury.

21:21 DaemonFC; Trips to Disney World that she can't afford.

21:21 DaemonFC; Oh no, she needs WIC and she makes six figures.

21:21 DaemonFC; It's just completely fucking stupid.

21:21 lord_phanes; that

21:21 lord_phanes; is a spending problem

21:21 lord_phanes; you have an earning problem

21:21 DaemonFC; Yeah, six figures a year in rural Indiana.

21:21 DaemonFC; And she's broke!

21:21 DaemonFC; Because she has a husband who doesn't earn any money.

21:22 DaemonFC; Her mother-in-law living with her.

21:22 lord_phanes; lol loserr

21:22 DaemonFC; She adopted Problem Child and one day he'll set the house on fire.

21:22 lord_phanes; so he not only doesn't have a job to pitch in but has his mother live with them

21:22 lord_phanes; thats fantastic

21:22 DaemonFC; And then she took Wegovy and got pregnant at age 42.

21:22 DaemonFC; Because she believed the doctors who said she'd never get pregnant and didn't make her unemployed husband wear a condom!

21:22 DaemonFC; So now she's got a baby too.

21:23 DaemonFC; And she's the only one working and she has no money management skill.

21:23 DaemonFC; So it just all goes out the window.

21:23 DaemonFC; Since she's enabled the husband so long, if they got a divorce, he'd get stuff out of the marriage (alimony, visitation, etc.) without having to put anything into the care of the child he created (child support).

21:24 DaemonFC; Not that he could leave. Nobody else is going to put up with him not working, while he lives there for free, smokes, and eats.

21:25 DaemonFC; [15:22] <lord_phanes> so he not only doesn't have a job to pitch in but has his mother live with them

21:25 DaemonFC; It gets better.

21:25 DaemonFC; You never hit bedrock with anyone in my family.

21:25 DaemonFC; His mother got him addicted to pain killers when he was a child.

21:25 DaemonFC; She got all her children hooked on drugs when they were a child because she was a druggie.

21:26 DaemonFC; She's apparently stopped, but the drugs got her other two children dead or in prison on the installment plan.

21:26 DaemonFC; So the one with my cousin is the most successful one out of the bunch.

21:26 DaemonFC; And now he's managed to reproduce as well.

21:26 DaemonFC; :)

21:27 lord_phanes; well, try to relax, im sure someone in your family tree will go fight for country some time over the next few years and set the bloodline right

21:27 lord_phanes; either that or the problem will take care of itself, wars do that too

21:28 lord_phanes; and there will be

21:29 lord_phanes; yeah, its going to be like "there's a draft again and we're calling in 50 year olds because the newgen are literally becoming food in the trenches"

21:29 DaemonFC; MinceR says the use for these people is to make the enemy fire munitions at them.

21:30 DaemonFC; I did get my firearms training from a former police detective who was also on a Hostage Rescue Team.

21:31 DaemonFC; I asked around for recommendations on that one.

21:31 lord_phanes; if you want legit firearms training go out to nashville and find an ex-cia sniper trainer

21:32 DaemonFC; lord_phanes: Anyway, my point about my cousins are....

21:32 lord_phanes; one of those "camp" style training courses where you live there

21:32 DaemonFC; Terrible life choices and no money management skills are even worse than not making very much money to begin with.

21:32 lord_phanes; DaemonFC: and just imagine, you do all 3

21:32 DaemonFC; Because "here it is, make it count" is at least better than hitting Starbucks twice a day. Disney world three times a year.

21:33 DaemonFC; Bank on the phone threatening to take your home away.

21:33 lord_phanes; i live well below my means and save like half my income, and how i live is extravagant compared to what you do by the sounds of it

21:34 DaemonFC; All I have to do to get to a library is walk next door.

21:34 lord_phanes; thats not a trump horn, i mean that one. you gotta pump those numbers up bub.

21:34 DaemonFC; That's it.

21:34 DaemonFC; Go borrow something from the library.

21:34 DaemonFC; Why have $100 a month in streaming bills?

21:34 lord_phanes; you could be selling infrastructure maintenance to the library

21:35 DaemonFC; Every time they send someone a property tax bill they're like "$700 for a swamp with mosquitoes. $400 for the library. $200 to provide free healthcare for illegal aliens. $100 for the streets."

21:35 DaemonFC; You're paying for the library. Go use it!

21:35 DaemonFC; They print out. I'm not shitting you.

21:35 lord_phanes; i have my own library

21:35 lord_phanes; at home

21:36 lord_phanes; one i can be naked in

21:36 DaemonFC; They print out a thing saying how much using the library saved you that year.

21:36 DaemonFC; They don't have a line to deduct your property taxes (actual, not optional) from "savings" (which they figured.....how?)

21:37 DaemonFC; The library saved you $73 last year. Meanwhile, the property taxes arrive and "Library" is like "$563".

21:37 DaemonFC; So basically if they just shut down the library and you bought books and movies, you'd have books and movies you got to keep?

21:38 DaemonFC; Of course, homeless Venezuelans wouldn't have a place to go take a bath in the sink and piss on the floor.

21:38 DaemonFC; If we do have a war they should round up the Venezuelans and send them.

21:38 DaemonFC; Make the same deal Putin does.

21:38 DaemonFC; You get back, we'll give you an American passport.

21:39 DaemonFC; Maybe 1 in 100 makes it back.

21:39 DaemonFC; Putin can promise a lot to people he sends there without body armor and one clip of ammunition.

21:39 DaemonFC; :)

21:40 DaemonFC; "You see that Howitzer over there? Run towards it and scream. You get Russian citizenship and a million dollars if you get back!"

21:40 DaemonFC; :P

21:40 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^

21:40 DaemonFC; Eventually, there's like a field of dead Russian conscripts they didn't want back.

21:40 DaemonFC; And the Ukrainians have no more shells.

21:42 lord_phanes; im like 99% sure your a fake persona to make sure no one pays attention to this place

21:42 DaemonFC; This is really how the Russians think. And this is what happens when you have too many people you can't do much for who all demand to eat.

21:42 DaemonFC; You'll find a war to get them killed in.

21:42 DaemonFC; Or they'll riot at home.

10 PM, May 27

22:13 lord_phanes; of course they bombed a civilian refugee camp in rafah, killing 50 mostly women and children

22:13 lord_phanes; right after the icj orders a halt to rafah

22:14 lord_phanes; and now bibi is like "oopsie this was a tragic mistake" like he didn't fucking order it

22:14 DaemonFC; The ICJ isn't real.

22:14 DaemonFC; It's sort of a gaslighting operation.

22:14 lord_phanes; the man needs to be swung from a gallow on an international livestream

22:14 DaemonFC; And the people complaining about them killed 400,000 South Africans by blocking the importation of AIDS drugs and denying the existence of HIV.

22:15 DaemonFC; Which is itself a crime against humanity.

22:15 DaemonFC; Israel should respond at the ICJ by complaining about Mbeki and other South African government officials and their AIDS denial holocaust.

22:15 DaemonFC; Of their own citizens.

22:17 DaemonFC; All South Africa had to do was stop the HIV drug import ban, acknowledge that HIV is a dangerous virus that causes AIDS, and let in free medicine from the United States.

22:29 lord_phanes; that should be addressed. after bibi hangs.

22:32 lord_phanes; the ICJ is absolutely real, moreso than the ICC

22:33 lord_phanes; they have sanction powers

22:33 lord_phanes; and can impact member state standing on UN councils

22:33 lord_phanes; the US may very well be withdrawing from the UN at the culmination of this

22:34 lord_phanes; the hilarious part is it will be an international conflict and it will be painfully obvious to all that we're not the good guys on this historical chapter because our support was unconditional

22:37 lord_phanes; and, our financial stability and military readiness are depleted due to misallocation to ukraine

22:37 lord_phanes; so we will lose

22:37 lord_phanes; and then we will be sanctioned

22:38 lord_phanes; the hardline repubs will get all loud for a while

22:38 lord_phanes; and then they'll lose their positions of influence over it as people get hungrier

22:39 lord_phanes; and only then will the parties adjust to something more modern

22:40 lord_phanes; it will be concerning how crazy policymakers get for a while as this progresses through that course

22:40 lord_phanes; people saying things i say now will be under threat of imprisonment or deportation

22:41 lord_phanes; or perhaps they'll keep a list names like mine would get added to that they incorrectly call something else to make it more pejorative

22:41 lord_phanes; and restrict the freedoms of the people on that list

22:44 lord_phanes; a "scarlet letter" if you will

22:45 DaemonFC; Trump can unilaterally withdraw the US from the United Nations next year.

22:45 DaemonFC; And boot them out of New York City permanently.

22:45 lord_phanes; yep but he wont

22:45 lord_phanes; unless they sanction us or restrict our security council veto privs

22:45 DaemonFC; You're probably right.

22:46 DaemonFC; Taking away our veto would require changing the UN charter.

22:46 DaemonFC; Which could happen.

22:46 DaemonFC; But it would be the end of a third of their funding.

22:46 DaemonFC; So they've never tried it because everyone else's dues would go up by what the US isn't paying.

22:46 lord_phanes; or for all the other members to start saying "this is bullshit, this thing in israel is over or we quit and there will be conflict"

22:47 DaemonFC; The UN is mostly for weak countries that otherwise don't matter in the world and can't impose their will unilaterally.

22:47 DaemonFC; Like Canada.

22:47 DaemonFC; Canada doesn't really matter outside of Canada.

22:47 DaemonFC; And they don't really seem to have any ambition anyway.

22:47 lord_phanes; out military might and financial contributions aren't the only thing holding the UN together or the only thing keeping us in the UN

22:48 lord_phanes; if we withdrew it would isolate the US diplomatically and financially, and we'd try to lean on mexico, who would reject us, and canada is too incoherent to be a useful ally

22:48 DaemonFC; China doesn't seem to generally want to take over world policing.

22:48 lord_phanes; we'd lose dollar dominance almost immediately

22:48 DaemonFC; They don't even step in and fire some missiles at the Houthis when they attack Chinese-flagged vessels.

22:48 lord_phanes; and brics would finally get a leg in

22:49 DaemonFC; China seems more concerned with regional invasion plans, for now, and for some reason, loading up third world countries with debt they'll never pay back.

22:50 lord_phanes; a non-un-member america would withdraw inward and become a much weaker country to the point that our ranking on leader boards in key indicators of prosperity would be greatly diminished

22:50 lord_phanes; those smaller weaker states are held back by us and dont realize it

22:50 DaemonFC; Giving Venezuela a loan is like paying my cousin's $600 Verizon bill with the promise of being paid back next Thursday.

22:50 lord_phanes; we would over the following few years have our operations withdraw to mostly sticking to north and south america

22:50 DaemonFC; Only the king of idiots would do it.

22:50 lord_phanes; china would be the new US of europe

22:51 lord_phanes; and once that happens, it'll stay that way for 1000 years

22:51 lord_phanes; a literal eon of unhindered chinese influence expansion

22:51 lord_phanes; in a vacuum left by the US

22:51 DaemonFC; The US government acknowledges that it's losing influence in the world.

22:52 lord_phanes; all they have to do to stop this

22:52 DaemonFC; It seems to be intent on loading itself up with debt obligations over something it thinks can be postponed 30 years.

22:52 lord_phanes; is arrest bibi

22:52 lord_phanes; we need a regime change in israel

11 PM, May 27

23:00 DaemonFC; We need a regime change in most governments in the world. The problem is that something just as bad or worse tends to happen next.

23:00 DaemonFC; Because people don't change.
