Et tu, XFCE?

I figured if Random Linux ran just fine on it (that PC’s job was distro-testing) then Random BSD should do just as well. BEEP!! Wrong!

First, a question. Do you understand what the Woke Agenda is? For starters, the Woke support gender confusion, otherwise known as the mutilation of children, and make it policy to attack anyone who fails to comply with their agenda, as Lunduke has pointed out many times, being the subject of calls for his death. You make it sound as if getting killed by criminals is a joke. What twisted society are you from? Brian Lunduke did not embarrass himself. You just did what you accused him of doing.

I recommend that you spend some time looking into it. Rust developers support the Woke Agenda. So do the Wayland developers. Now XFCE jumps on the Woke bandwagon.

Why not? It keeps the worst of the Woke out of Apple’s and Google’s development and redirects them into efforts of chaos and destruction elsewhere. “Here are some resources. Now go run along and have some fun destroying our non-compliant competition.”

Back to the illegal 80,000 guided missile problem:

This makes me angry and sad. Many truck drivers don’t like the Amish “because they hold up traffic.” I never had a problem with the Amish. I have spoken with them when delivering RV parts to the RV assembly plants where some of them work. Good, honest people. Hard workers. I never had a late delivery because of a man, his horse, and his buggy or farm wagon. But too many times I had more than a few oncoming retards like this one who tried to take me out by crossing over the double yellow. Thankfully, I inspected my brakes before I started my day.

I don’t follow Ike Stevens as much as I once did. Watching “Four Wheeler Fridays” is not good for my blood pressure. But lately he has been on top of the 80,000 guided missiles being operated by illegals and how the Fake News is running distractions and false information cover-ups. Ike is not making this up. This is precisely what they do. Quickly change out all signs before law enforcement shows up.

It was bad almost six years ago when I retired. Back then it was limited to Friday and Saturday. You could easily spot the illegals. They were the ones with trucks that had the DOT number and name held on with duct tape, masking tape, or electrical tape. On Friday and Saturday they would be at the truck stop changing signs on the trucks because they just got an emergency call from the company informing them what the “name of the week” will be for next week.

While comic book logbooks are now illegal and all trucks have electronic logs unless built before 1994, it is still easy enough for the company to send out the codes from the office computer to the truck via cell towers to wipe the E-log and create a new one. That way their drivers can easily exceed the hours of service and drive around the clock (Amazon third-party carriers). Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) enforcement has a tough time catching this because there is no paper trail, unlike with the old comic books, which had to be done with a ballpoint pen and carbon paper. The only way is to go into the office and audit everything on the computers and hope the company doesn’t have someone knowledgeable about computers working there to cover up the tracks.

We have a couple Amish communities hereabouts. I know a guy who repairs their buggy wheels. That’s about the most trouble they make. Considering all the farm equipment on our two-lanes, the odd buggy hardly holds up traffic. (We have a whole lot more Hutterites, but they all drive farm trucks. Best eggs you can get.)

That scumrag’s surname is from Kyrgyzstan, which I believe is presently on restricted status, so it’s a fair bet he’s illegal. Oh look, there’s an immigration detainer on him…

I rarely see those taped-on IDs here (tho it’s not like I hang around truck stops), but good to know that’s a marker for Watch Out, thanks.

And yeah, you gotta wonder who thought electronic logs would be secure. Why, that log says whatever I need it to say!

Ike Stevens posted another video on YouTube, basically a part two for this illegal. Turns out the company he works for is out of a house in Palatine, IL, about 8 miles from where I live, in a nice residential neighborhood. The feds showed up, and guess what? No trucking company. Nobody is home. I think they would have better luck across town in the Palatine industrial park. Amazon has a warehouse just off 53 and 12. But these are government workers. Doing that would make too much sense. Common sense and government generally don’t mix.

I don’t know where the driver is from, but he appears to be from somewhere in that part of Asia. So Kyrgyzstan would not surprise me.

I see them all over on every interstate route and in the Elk Grove Village industrial park outside O’Hare airport. Amazon has a warehouse in that location. Why does this not surprise me?

The entire Chicago five-county region is a logistics hub for Amazon. A warehouse every dozen miles or so. Have to keep the soccer moms happy with next-day shipping. Unless it gets too cold. Below +10°F, the souped-up electric golf carts pretending to be delivery vans don’t work. Only FedEx and UPS deliveries on those days because they use turbo-diesel engines.

Leftoid indoctrinated government nonworkers. That is who came up with that idea. At the time, there were no cell towers, and the only way to change anything was to go back to the terminal and plug in the computer at the shop or yank the computer out of the truck.

I had to go through that a few times when the hard drive in the truck crashed and I had to go back to using a paper logbook with the ballpoint pen. Back then, cell towers struggled with 2G data. The result was anywhere between a few hours and a day of downtime. Once the new drive was in, drivers were not allowed to drive until the computer downloaded everything that was stored as backup on the company’s server. So I had to stay within range of the Wi-Fi out in the yard and leave the key turned to on, or the truck would cut power to the computer after 30 minutes.

That continued until the company replaced every computer under the bunk in the cab with a Samsung tablet running customized software on top of Android. Then it was a tablet crash every few hours. I got good at rebooting those tablets while driving. You just need to know where to push on the side of the tablet holder. Shifting gears required more mental power.

The company’s safety department just figured that I always had an upgraded tablet that automatically rebooted on its own. This was the same safety department that told me ice cleats with pins sticking out 1/16 inch work when there are four inches of snow on top of smooth ice. They tried to blame me for slipping and falling, resulting in a three-way broken wrist (another story, and no, my titanium wrist is not magnetic).

Once 3G became a reality, it was game over. Now the chameleon companies (as Ike Stevens rightfully calls them) could push fresh logs out to their drivers at will. As always, none of the Leftoids could see 3G coming, never mind the implications.
