I've personally found her obnoxious for... uh... ever? 12:20 < aestetix> well yes 12:20 < aestetix> She's been known for being annoying for.... 30 years? 12:21 <@Dolemite> I've been somewhat surprised with her role on the show - specifically, that it's not the MAGA Variety Show. I think it has done a good job of portraying real struggles with race and immigration. 12:21 < aestetix> I watched the first few episodes and actually liked it 12:21 < aestetix> I haven't watched the last few just because life 12:22 <@Evilpig> she has a good set of writers. how much of that she is involved with I don't know, but it's been funny damnit. 12:22 <@Evilpig> stupid abc 12:22 <@Evilpig> stupid PC nonsense 12:22 <@oddball> Yeah, I have a friend that made a post that stated that the show was possibly doing more to get middle america to accept alternative lifestyles than a lot of the stuff that's come out in a while. 12:23 < aestetix> yep 12:23 <@Dolemite> Evilpig: Yep, but she still has to act it out. She's managed to be professional in that respect, at least. 12:23 < aestetix> The reason I watched it, in fact, was because of all the negative reviews by people who hadn't seen it 12:23 < aestetix> If they all hate it, that means it has to be good :p 12:23 <@oddball> Since, apparently, one of the grand kids was gay or something, and that show was firmly aimed at watched by rednecks. 12:23 <@Dolemite> True dat 12:23 <@Dolemite> One grandkid is gender fluid, another is biracial 12:24 <@oddball> ah, ok. 12:24 <@oddball> And a lot of that demographic will instantly tune out the hard left stuff. 12:24 <@Dolemite> He's a boy, he simply likes to wear skirts and/or wear makeup at times. 12:24 <@Evilpig> bright colors 12:25 <@Dolemite> Kinda like NotLarry 12:25 < aestetix> Dolemite: and Roseanne went to school with him and defended him. 12:25 <@Dolemite> Yep 12:25 < aestetix> and yet she is the bigot somehow 12:25 <@Dolemite> Well, again, that was how the part was written 12:28 < aestetix> and now this has created a shitstorm that the president has weighed in on 12:28 < aestetix> and the drama is going to last the rest of the week 12:29 <@Dolemite> Russia-WHAT? 12:30 < aestetix> wait, Roseanne met with someone from Russia? 12:30 <@Dolemite> There you go, toss that one out into meme space 12:30 < aestetix> hmm 12:30 < aestetix> I wonder if there were any Russians on her writing staff 12:32 <@Dolemite> I had posted a link to snopes.com on one of the blatantly incorrect posting from an old high school friend... which then quickly spiraled down into Soros/Bias/Fake Media... but it was being countered, the entire time, by memes. I'd cite sources, he and his friends would respond with memes. We deserve to fail as a species, at this point. 12:32 <@oddball> Because Russia 12:33 < aestetix> Dolemite: don't forget that Obama was recruited and trained by Saul Alinsky 12:33 <@Dolemite> No, I like the one that Obama was a gay male prostitute in college. 12:34 < aestetix> heh that reminds me of when I lived in baltimore 12:35 <@oddball> And, of course, I'm *still* hearing people that should know better talk about the Trump golden showers thing that turned out to be a 4chan prank. 12:35 < aestetix> I moved into this apartment, the guy living there before me apparently had a regular set of gay prostitutes come to his place every saturday night 12:35 < aestetix> and forgot to tell them all he'd moved 12:35 < aestetix> so I'd occasionally get a knock on the door at like 2am 12:35 <@Dolemite> I want to go back in time to an age when bloggers didn't get press credentials outside of fandom conventions. When it was accepted that a newspaper willing to print a retraction when they are wrong was considered good journalism. Back to when they paid for proof checkers. 12:35 <@oddball> aestetix: I think that's one of those "only you would have that happen" moments. 12:36 <@Dolemite> oddball: The man has a golden toilet seat. I have every confidence that he has numerous golden showers. 12:36 < aestetix> There's a knock on the door at 2am, and one look at the guy tells me what's going on. 12:36 < aestetix> "Sorry, he doesn't live here anymore." 12:36 <@oddball> Dolemite: Sad thing is that we've got to the point that the newspapers are about as reliable as bloggers/youtubers anymore. 12:37 < aestetix> I mean nothing against anyone else's life choices 12:37 < aestetix> But that got annoying 12:37 < aestetix> Dolemite: same 12:37 <@Dolemite> oddball: I agree that there are *some* bloggers that are more reliable than newspapers, but in general, most are still just spouting opinion, rather than facts. 12:38 <@Dolemite> Of course, any paper that Gannett bought out is now worth less than toilet paper. At least toilet paper will clean your ass without giving you a rash. 12:38 <@oddball> And newspapers have now actually adopted the policy that it's better to just change the story on their site and not print a retraction. 12:38 <@oddball> Dolemite: Oh, yeah... there's a lot of bloggers out there that spew bullshit. 12:39 < aestetix> oddball: which is horirble 12:39 < aestetix> horrible* 12:39 <@Dolemite> Yeah, I hate online papers that don't show a change log 12:39 <@Dolemite> So basically here's the Dolemite 2020 take on the whole Russia scandal. 12:40 < aestetix> I actually think the news media is hurting the US more than Trump 12:40 <@Dolemite> 1 - Russia didn't break down our ability to tell fact from fiction. We did that shit to ourselves, in the name of higher ratings. 12:40 < aestetix> yep 12:40 < aestetix> Well also 12:40 <@oddball> I have a friend that's a reporter. She's told me that both the lawyers and ethics commitee has said that that's the best way to do it. 12:40 <@Dolemite> 2 - Russia didn't really care who got elected, they simply wanted chaos, and for us to question EVERYTHING. 12:40 < aestetix> if you take the russia narrative to its logical conclusion 12:41 < aestetix> Then you get censorship of certain kinds of speech. 12:41 < aestetix> Which is precisely what Facebook has proposed with their new ad policies. 12:41 <@oddball> When I told her that they should list the changes, she told me that there would be articles where the corrections were longer than the article. My reaction was "and your point?" 12:41 <@Dolemite> 3 - Trump is fucking moron that thought he could get his son to reach out to Russia to dig up dirt on his opponent, because WINNING is all that matters. 12:41 < aestetix> yep 12:42 <@oddball> Hell, I've seen some articles that were quietly replaced with articles that stated the exact opposite of the initial one. 12:43 <@Dolemite> Newspaper sites should be run like an editor-only page of wikipedia 12:43 <@Dolemite> Every change is logged and reviewable by the public 12:43 <@Dolemite> And turn off commenting 12:43 < aestetix> that would be great 12:43 <@Dolemite> For the love of humanity, turn that shit off. Take it straight to social media if you want, but keep it out of the original article. 12:44 < aestetix> So basically make a digital version of the star system 12:44 <@oddball> Of course, what pisses me off with the press and Trump is that they're constantly editing shit to make him look bad, or straight up making shit up. All the time, he's actually doing shit that makes him look bad that doesn't get reported/gets buried. 12:44 < aestetix> yep 12:44 <@oddball> Dolemite: That would make me very happy. 12:45 <@Dolemite> And before it can be reported, yes, back in the day I put many a dollar bill in the garter of an otherwise naked woman. Scandal averted. 12:45 <@oddball> heh 12:46 <@Dolemite> I also drank beer while doing it 12:46 <@Mirage> And smoking 12:46 < aestetix> Dolemite: you shuld post that on twitter 12:49 < aestetix> speaking of which 12:49 < aestetix> I'm so glad I have it blocked 12:49 < aestetix> I can't imagine how bad it is today 12:52 <@Dolemite> Yeah, true, I used to be a social smoker 12:52 <@Dolemite> including the occasional cigar or clove cigarette 12:53 < aestetix> yeah, the smoking bans are progressive left policies 12:53 < aestetix> I've been called very bad names because I disagree with those policies 12:54 <@Dolemite> Effort should be on educating people about why it's not a good idea to smoke, not to punish those who are already addicted 12:54 < aestetix> And not taking choices away. 12:55 <@Dolemite> I actually had to talk to my kiddo about that last weekend at GeekNIC. He asked me why Mirage smoked, and I explained to him that at this point it wasn't really a choice for him. I know Mirage has tried to quit multiple times, but sometimes you just can't make it stick. 12:56 < aestetix> Dolemite: that's a bit different from the government deciding for you. 12:57 <@Dolemite> But there are still a lot of people in this world that think being addicted to alcohol, smoking, opioids... or in my case, food, is simply a choice. 12:57 < aestetix> yeah that's not what I was suggesting 12:58 <@Dolemite> But when government enacts a ban on an activity like smoking, in the whole freaking city... that's too far. 12:58 < aestetix> yep 12:59 <@Dolemite> If I own a bar and want to cater to smokers, I should be able to do so. 12:59 < aestetix> yep 12:59 <@Evilpig> ash has switched from smoking to vaping and while I can't speak to it being more healthy I can say her eternal raspy cough is gone and i'm happy about that 12:59 <@Dolemite> And if I go under due to the majority of people not wanting to be in that kind of environment, it's my own risk to take. 12:59 < aestetix> Dolemite: if you said this in the bay area, you'd get all kinds of personal attacks against you. 13:00 < aestetix> I speak from experience :( 13:00 <@Dolemite> Yeah, I'm not in favor of swapping one addiction for another 13:00 <@Dolemite> But I'm supportive of people who are making an attempt 13:00 <@Evilpig> the addiction is still nicotine but it seems to be less of it 13:00 < aestetix> sure 13:00 <@Dolemite> Without the tar 13:01 < aestetix> Actually 13:01 < aestetix> I wonder how many people use twitter the way they used to use smoking 13:10 <@shapr> I switched from smoking to vaping, it was an improvement. 13:10 <@shapr> but I'd rather be done with it 13:11 <@shapr> I've quit for years at a time, but when stressful life events happen, I go back to nicotine 13:13 <@ezelkow1> +1, also switched to vaping, like 2 years ago now maybe 13:13 <@ezelkow1> it is much better, i mean cheaper, no smell, no tar, and sure the verdict is out on the health side but I cant imagine it being anywhere close to the harm of actual cigs 13:14 <@ezelkow1> plus you can step yourself down, I started at 18mg and now down to 6mg 13:15 <@ezelkow1> i just dont get the people who do it for 'clouds' or for whatever reason they perceive it to be cool, thats just odd to me, but as a smoking cessation/alternative it is awesome 13:17 <@shapr> I heard they're changing the main internet router names. No longer Mae West and Mae East, now Kim Kardashian West and Kim Kardashian East. 13:17 <@shapr> ezelkow1: yeah, some of my coworkers want big clouds, I never did get that. 13:18 < aestetix> http://blog.dilbert.com/2018/05/30/episode-87-roseannes-ambien-defense/ 13:18 < PigBot> Episode 87: Roseanne’s Ambien Defense - Dilbert Blog (at blog.dilbert.com) 13:19 <@ezelkow1> score, won the raffle for a parking pass at work, now I get a year+ of free downtown garage parking 1block from my building 13:19 <@ezelkow1> which apparently I can use 24/7 13:19 <@shapr> yay! 13:19 <@shapr> My expensive apt building has a pretty decent parking deck, but the past week a bunch of cars were broken into 13:20 <@shapr> I guess I'm lucky my reliable car is old enough and affordable enough that they didn't want to steal my CDs 13:20 <@ezelkow1> though it does mean they also expect me to be in the office 4 days a week now, but I guess I can live with it 13:21 <@ezelkow1> cause from here I can get to coors field 3 blocks away, pepsi center 1 block, and the major train station like 1/2 block so I can hop on a train to the airport quick 13:49 <@Dolemite> The only train option I have in Knoxville is the one that does a loop inside the mall for $10/kid. 13:49 <@Dolemite> :( 13:50 <@shapr> Atlanta has a minimal subway system, but at least it has something 13:50 <@shapr> Birmingham has buses, but when I was there, I think they literally had two buses. 13:50 <@shapr> I never saw any mass transit in Huntsville, but they might have had buses. 13:51 <@Dolemite> Yeah, most Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities have a bus transit system, though often times underutilized. 13:51 <@Dolemite> HSV does have busses 13:51 <@Dolemite> Just not to white neighborhoods 13:51 <@Dolemite> Same as with nearly every Southern city outside of Atlanta 13:52 <@ezelkow1> yea we have busses, but they take forever to get anywhere 13:52 <@ezelkow1> the train isnt bad, but it pretty much just follows the interstate so you can get from some burbs to downtown, then out to a few other burbs from there or the airport 13:52 <@shapr> ezelkow1: which city? 13:52 <@ezelkow1> denver 13:52 <@shapr> I'm tempted to move to Denver 13:53 <@shapr> I liked the parts I saw 13:53 <@Dolemite> Even Knoxville has busses. The only time they have a stop in my town is during UT football games, so they can pick up all the rich white folks that want to get hammered on $10 beers. 13:53 <@shapr> I've heard Denver is cycle friendly. 13:53 <@ezelkow1> i like it, i did like nashville, but out of all the places I lived I do like denver the best 13:53 <@shapr> I'm enjoying Atlanta , but it's still very southern 13:53 <@shapr> and while I grew up in Alabama, I spent a bunch of my formative adult years in Europe 13:53 <@Dolemite> I live in a little town called Farragut, which is a portion they carved out from Knoxville about 25 years ago to separate themselves from the chaff of actuall Knoxville residents. 13:53 <@ezelkow1> and yea its pretty bike friendly, we have a bunch of people that actually bike in from the burbs cause they can do it in like 30min-1hr, we have trails everywhere 13:54 <@shapr> The south still feels very limited and limiting. 13:54 <@shapr> ezelkow1: I could go for that 13:54 <@shapr> though my unicycle isn't that great on deep snow 13:54 <@Dolemite> As long as you have at least one black family in your church, you're not a racist. That's how it works. 13:54 <@shapr> but there's a $1500 upgrade that would get me a snow-friendly unicycle 13:55 <@ezelkow1> snow isnt really an issue, we arent really the blizzardy wasteland the country thinks we are, its just when you see snow reports from 'denver' they tend to lump in the footbills and mountain areas, which are way way different than the city/burbs 13:55 <@ezelkow1> plus snow here melts within a day or 2, we dont get the winter slush 13:56 < aestetix> That's funny 13:57 <@shapr> winter slush was my least favorite part of Boston 13:57 < aestetix> Because you guys are all in the south 13:57 < aestetix> And you are all way, way, way more open minded than the average person in the Bay Area 13:57 <@ezelkow1> and theres not much humidity, so 30-40deg in the winter can be done in just in a hoodie once you're acclimated, same goes for summer, like I got used to 90-100 here in the summer and thought going back to nashville Id be fine when it was like 80 for a wedding 13:57 < aestetix> San Francisco turned into one of the most bigoted and closed minded places I've ever lived. 13:57 <@ezelkow1> and I was dying when I went back, sweatin my balls off 13:58 <@shapr> On my current team we have members from Montgomery, India, Turkey, and China 13:58 <@shapr> we also have one trans team member and two female team members 13:58 <@Dolemite> aestetix: I will be in San Francisco for DockerCon in 2 weeks. I will aspire to talk loud enough for people to hear me say that they're fucking morons for turning into such nannies. 13:59 <@shapr> I claim to be from Sweden, but really I grew up in Alabama 13:59 <@Dolemite> I may spend a day to try to find the Illegal BBQ girl. 13:59 < aestetix> Dolemite: nice :) 13:59 <@Dolemite> I want a selfie with her. 13:59 <@shapr> I love having a team this diverse, we find really good solutions. 13:59 < aestetix> shapr: is it actual diversity or just "we have blacks!" 14:00 < aestetix> Because so many of these "diverse" groups have zero people who aren't progressive leftists. 14:00 <@Dolemite> The lab has incredible diversity, that's for sure. 14:00 <@shapr> aestetix: we have real diversity 14:00 < aestetix> nice! 14:00 <@Dolemite> Not only do I know multiple people of color, I have managed to find TWO of them that are both from the tiny island of Trinidad and Tobago. 14:01 <@Dolemite> One I have been out drinking after work with. The other I simply interact with at work, but he's a really nice and capable guy. 14:01 <@shapr> aestetix: we also put effort into listening to all the team members no matter their experience level, so we find some really cool approaches 14:01 < aestetix> shapr: that's great. 14:01 < aestetix> I mean, as an example of something I saw in Oakland 14:02 <@shapr> I really love the people here. The tech side isn't very exciting, but the people side makes it hard to leave. 14:02 < aestetix> All these upper-middle class white kids got together and created a hackerspace which I won't name 14:02 <@shapr> I'm really tired of writing Python, C++, Ruby, Go, etc 14:02 < aestetix> They had a meeting and decided they wanted to have more blacks and other "minorities" 14:02 <@shapr> I don't think it works that way 14:02 < aestetix> And they did an outreach, and then these "minorities" showed up, and hooo boy did the culture drama issues start happening 14:03 <@shapr> I'm a member of Freeside in Atlanta, our membership is somewhat diverse. 14:03 <@shapr> hehe, I bet 14:04 < aestetix> As an example of the cultural drama that happened 14:04 <@shapr> Diversity is good for finding better solutions to problems, but assholes appear to be equally distributed among all humans. 14:04 < aestetix> Someone's computer got stolen. 14:04 < aestetix> Now, how do you investigate to figure out who stole it 14:04 <@shapr> you ask who saw it last? 14:04 < aestetix> I suspect you can all see where that went 14:04 <@shapr> where it was, who had access? 14:05 < aestetix> shapr: or you get suspicious of the new people 14:05 <@shapr> you grab the security camera recordings? 14:05 <@shapr> huh, ok 14:05 < aestetix> Let me put it this way 14:05 < aestetix> When you are actualy just virtue signalling to mask closet racism, and then bad shit happens, the mask can fall partly off. 14:05 < aestetix> But you have to sort of keep it on because you don't want anyone else to think you're racist. 14:06 <@shapr> like I said, assholes are in a uniform distribution 14:06 < aestetix> Let's just say I'm glad to not be there anymore. 14:06 < aestetix> And I wish Dolemite the best of luck 14:07 <@shapr> I've met cool people from many different backgrounds 14:07 < aestetix> Dolemite 2020 14:07 <@shapr> It's also weird how people from *very* different backgrounds who look the same seem to think they're more like each other. 14:07 <@shapr> I never did understand that. 14:11 < aestetix> shapr: well I can give an example here 14:11 < aestetix> here = berlin 14:12 < aestetix> One of the places where I am more libertarian is gun rights. I'm pretty opposed to government regulations, especially when they are lipservice and not actually doing anything 14:12 < aestetix> I'm happy to break down my reasoning and logic, and I've done this with Germans, and many times they have simply never heard my perspective before. 14:13 < aestetix> The conversation usually ends with "wow, you americans are nuts" but they can't refute the logic 14:14 < aestetix> I think this is because America actually has a very diverse discussion on guns, despite what you see in the media. 14:14 < aestetix> Whereas in Germany, it's just assumed they should be banned. 14:14 < aestetix> On the other hand, hearing some of the ways health care works here has changed my view on socialized health care significantly. 14:14 < aestetix> This is the kind of diversity I like :) 14:15 -!- klixa-cloud [uid861@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-hqdidukclhzsnpqd] has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity] 14:15 < aestetix> hope that makes sense 14:23 <@Dolemite> Anybody here every used the Postfix address_masquerade directive? 14:24 <@Dolemite> s/every/ever 14:24 <@Dolemite> Trying to clean up for DMARC compliance without having to get 100s of admins to fix their shit (which I'd love to be able to make them do) 14:25 <@Dolemite> In a strict DMARC scenario, root@myserver.domain.gov being signed by a DKIM key for domain.gov will fail alignment. 14:25 <@Dolemite> I'm thinking that Address Masquerading will do the trick 14:29 <@shapr> yeah, socialized health care in Sweden was great 14:31 <@Dolemite> oh, well, time to head home 16:27 -!- Synx_hm [~Synx_hm@unaffiliated/synx-hm/x-1623004] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 18:57 -!- rhia [~rhia@wtcdsl-66-165-15-89.whidbeyteldsl.net] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 18:58 -!- rhia [~rhia@wtcdsl-66-165-15-89.whidbeyteldsl.net] has joined #se2600 18:58 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o rhia] by ChanServ 19:14 -!- strages [uid11297@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-zidzcnuxyozvdxci] has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity] --- Log closed Thu May 31 00:00:19 2018
