And ask if it would be aired today. 09:44 < aestetix> A lot of movies from the 80s would be thrown out by the "progressives" 09:45 <@Dagmar> If they were being honest about it, the new Ghostbusters wouldn't get screentime today 09:45 < aestetix> honest about what? 09:46 <@Dagmar> Being against sexism 09:46 < aestetix> oh 09:46 <@Dagmar> Because it is _far_ more sexist than the original Ghostbusters 09:46 < aestetix> I didn't watch it 09:46 <@Dagmar> You should, just so you can give the middle finger to the people complaining it was treated unfairly 09:46 < aestetix> But it seems like they are basically taking the worst of hollywood tropes, switching the genders, and calling it "progress" 09:46 <@Dagmar> People didn't like it because it was an uninspired chop job on the original 09:47 <@Dagmar> ...but the director and actresses responded to that by calling everyone who didn't like it a misogynistic troll. 09:47 <@Dagmar> Particularly of interest should be the way they treat the replacement Jeanine 09:47 < dasunt> Strawmanning one's opponents is normal these days. 09:48 <@Dagmar> It's utterly _deplorable_ 09:48 < dasunt> Probably part of why our culture is in the toilet. 09:48 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez! 09:49 * aestetix hugs Dolemite 09:50 < dasunt> Anyone know the cost of a homebuilt *big* model rocket? 09:50 <@Dolemite> Define big 09:51 < dasunt> By big, I mean liquid fueled & engine, not Estes solid rocket engine. 09:51 <@Dolemite> You can go several miles up on a solid rocket engine. Just not necessarily one that you can buy in the store. 09:52 <@Dolemite> You have to start making your own engines out of cat litter and confectioner sugar 09:53 < dasunt> I'm reading a discussion which has mentioned assymetrical warfare, and what a cheap GPS unit + explosives could make a cheap drone into. 09:54 < dasunt> I'm thinking a model rocket (assuming it could handle a big enough payload) may be even cheaper. 09:54 -!- remoford [~remo_lapt@c-68-52-35-32.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 09:54 * dasunt waves to Homeland Security. 09:55 < dasunt> For a rocket, you need a GPS, a control board, a few movable surfaces for steering, etc. 09:56 < dasunt> I'm guessing less than $1000 for that. 09:57 -!- remoford1 [~remo_lapt@c-68-52-35-32.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 09:57 <@Dagmar> Not that I'm suggesting this but in a populated area you wouldn't need GPS 09:57 <@Dagmar> You could navigate based on wireless signals 09:57 < dasunt> True. 09:58 <@Dagmar> You'd still need a magenetometer for direction but you could work out pretty accurately where you were with the 30+ off SSIDs you can pick up at any given moment 09:58 < dasunt> Directional antenna? 09:58 -!- remoford [~remo_lapt@c-68-52-35-32.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds] 09:59 <@Dagmar> No, you'd just need the magnetometer to know which way you're facing 09:59 <@Dagmar> Seriously, run Wigle and wander around a downtown area 09:59 < dasunt> Oh I know. 09:59 <@Dagmar> Even getting out int he suburbs you're hard-pressed to see fewer than 8 SSIDs at once now 10:00 <@Dagmar> You can get within 50 feet of the correct location pretty easily based on SSIDs alone and more or less ignoring signal quality 10:03 < dasunt> I'm guessing the military stuff would be GPS though. Perhaps with dead reckoning to fall back on? 10:04 < dasunt> Ye old terrorist fuckwit could rely on wifi. 10:08 <@Dagmar> _assymetrical warfare_ 10:11 < dasunt> If I'm reading Mouser's part catalog correctly, GPS modules are pretty cheap. 10:11 <@Dagmar> They are 10:11 <@Dagmar> Go to sparkfun or adafruit and you can buy them 10:13 < dasunt> LOL, found this in r/rocketry: "This needs to be in the side bar, or at least a sub rule.
