07:54 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
08:03  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
09:17 <@dasunt> Catonic: The correct term is "forget me now"
09:19 <@dasunt> I want the "we could have had cell phones decades earlier" story to die.
09:28 <@rhia> dasunt, we could have, if they had been landlines installed in jail cells
09:28  * rhia ducks
09:30 < aestetix> dasunt: I'm pretty unhappy with cell phones today
09:30 < aestetix> so decades earlier would be even worse
09:32 <@dasunt> Yep.  There's a reason that mobile phones, while existing far earlier than most people suspect, didn't really catch on, and it's not because AT&T didn't choose one technology in New York City.
09:32 < aestetix> dasunt: I haven't had a cell phone in two years
09:32 < aestetix> and life has gotten so much better for me personally
09:32 <@dasunt> aestetix: How is Nirvana?
09:34 < aestetix> I mean I think we can all agree the world would be better with one less cell phone
09:34 <@dasunt> For the longest time, I had just a dumb phone, and I rarely used it.  That was so nice.
09:34 < aestetix> or, in any case, one fewer twitter account...
09:34 <@dasunt> Too bad my job requires a smartphone.
09:46 <@dasunt> So I'm reading about the congressman that injured his ankle during the attack yesterday.
09:47 <@dasunt> Note he wasn't shot, he just sprained it or something.
09:47 <@dasunt> He's going to fly from DC back to Texas to have his doctor look at it.
09:48 <@dasunt> Meanwhile, he has voted in such a way to remove healthcare from more people.

10:37 < K`Tetch> we had no cellphone for 2 years, was... difficult as a family
11:13 <@dasunt> My family was so poor that my mother and my father never had cell phones when they were kids.  :p

11:44 <@Corydon76> dasunt: remember walkie-talkies?
11:45 <@Corydon76> With limited ranges?
11:45 < K`Tetch> I bought some FRS radios about 10 yaers ago, to use in places like walmart
11:48 <@Corydon76> And now there are apps that do that, with no limited range (as long as you're within range of a cell tower)
11:50 < K`Tetch> it was $40 for the two radios, and they were self contained, with no further costs
11:51 < K`Tetch> also, radio's aren't under quite the same restrictiosn as cellphones when driving
11:53 <@Corydon76> Yes, well, the ham radio and CB radio enthusiasts would get on any state's case if they attempted to ban radio use
12:34 <@Catonic> member talkies-walkies?
12:34 <@Catonic> yeah, I member.
12:35 <@Catonic> The Feds pretty well lead that one as well... they are continually writing and rewriting restrictions for device use while driving in any jurisdiction they have.
12:35 <@Catonic> "handsfree device only"
12:36 <@Catonic> I'd guess that's a third gripe of drivers: oblivious LEOs in the left lane talking on the phone or texting and driving.
12:36 <@Catonic> FRS radios can't have a removable antenna.
12:37 <@Catonic> GMRS... is of limited usefulness. Repeaters tend to have subscription fees.
12:37 <@Catonic> It's not trunking radio so it's unlikely that anyone would try to make a direct connection using simplex rather than using the repeater.
12:59 <@opticron> Catonic, even worse, fucking with their in-car laptops that seem to violate the law in some jurisdictions by just existing there (unless exceptions are specifically made for LEOs)
13:01 <@Catonic> and LEOs almost always have exclusions to laws because 1) what DA would prosecute them and 2) who would arrest them? And then there's the connection to the feudal knights, wherein they didn't have money but they had strength, armor, weapons, and enough resources to permit them to leave the farm for a while.
13:02 <@Catonic> But remember, the LEO ability to carry a gun is based in the Right To Bear Arms, which is guaranteed to all in writing but in practice arbritrarily denied
13:03 <@Catonic> It harkens back to the time of the samurai, almost... The ability to kill and depart without being questioned.
13:03 <@Catonic> So much for equality under law.

20:26 <@Dagmar> Wow.
20:26 <@Dagmar> It's truly impressive just how _shit_ the last episode of DOllhouse is.
20:49 < ^020d> It truly was a departure...
21:13 < dc0de[m]> I'm seeing a lot of people complaining recently about the lack of creativity and thought behind shows coming out of Hollywood lately.
21:14 < dc0de[m]> All that, without a writer's strike.
21:14 < dc0de[m]> We'd be better off with the scabs at this point.
21:16 < dc0de[m]> Anyone know of any infosec manager positions in the Southeast? I'm looking to leave California, for cheaper pastures and a better quality of life.
21:17 < dc0de[m]> dc0de'a thoughts: California, the prettiest bleached assholes in America.
21:17 < dc0de[m]> And that's about it.
22:24 <@Catonic> hnnnng
22:25 <@Catonic> dc0de[m]: you like major metro areas too much.
22:54 < dc0de[m]> Oh yeah, I love metro areas, for release of nuclear ordnance.
22:57 <@Dagmar> Dirty, dirty bombs
22:57 <@Dagmar> Naughty things!
22:59 < dc0de[m]> No, high yield, high energy hydrogen bombs. Leave no building standing.
23:00 < dc0de[m]> Fuck it, I say we dust off and nuke the whole friggin side from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
23:05 <@Catonic> neutron bombs. make the buildings save for rehabitation.
23:05 <@Catonic> if you REJECT, things happen, but when you DROP... people don't know how to take it
23:06 <@Catonic> dc0de[m]: you should probably start eyeing a move to CO. It's not LA, and there are a lot of "smart" companies there.
23:08 <@Catonic> there are a lot of people scanning the interwebs using sipvicious
