Dammit. 07:26 <@Dolemite> Not that it seems to matter much, since I'm spending the entire day within the confines of my house. I did at least fire up the grill, yesterday. 07:45 <@dc0de> Dolemite: welcome to my existence. I have worked remote for 2+ years 07:45 <@dc0de> Nothing really has changed for me. 07:46 <@dc0de> https://meet.jit.si/dc0de 07:46 < PigBot> Jitsi Meet (at meet.jit.si) http://tinyurl.com/rap7t4o 07:46 <@Dolemite> I'm a homebody for sure, but I like some time to myself. It's my inmates that are adding levels of stress. 07:46 <@Dolemite> Well that and the complete hassle of going shopping. 07:46 <@dc0de> Dolemite: thankfully I have a home office... 07:46 <@Mirage> ditto...with the addition of also being mostly a hermit. 07:47 <@dc0de> See dc0de in his natural habitat 07:47 <@dc0de> https://meet.jit.si/dc0de 07:47 < PigBot> Jitsi Meet (at meet.jit.si) http://tinyurl.com/rap7t4o 07:47 <@Evilpig> people like my neighbor are the reason this shit is gonna continue 07:49 <@Evilpig> over the weekend she went and saw some dude she's been talking to on some dating app, he's a trucker that's been doing deliveries everywhere, then the day after that she took her two kids to some chick's house to get their hair done and was happy to proclaim that she was glad this girl was operating out of her house instead of a shop so she could still get her hair fixed 07:51 <@Mirage> like anything else, a few baddies ruin it for everyone 07:54 <@Dolemite> Well, our goobernor, Bill Lee, has basically put in a Shelter In Place order but declared nearly every business as an essential business, so it's a giant load of horse shit 07:56 <@Mirage> Yeah, that was pretty much the same that our county did, with the stipulation that cities should enact stricter rules. Some asshat business owner decided that the city shouldn't be able to have tighter restrictions and is suing to have the city orders overturned. 07:56 <@Evilpig> I do have to admit I was one of the assholes that went to the carwash this weekend, I was surprised that they were open, I was shocked at the fact that every vacuum stall was full and actively in use, I did not use the vacuum 07:57 <@Dolemite> I went to Advance Auto this weekend to pick up a new fuel filter for the lawnmower. I was the only customer in the store, thankfully. 07:57 <@Mirage> The mayor's reaction to that was perfect..essentially he said, "fine..if the current order is overturned then I'll just change one word and re-issue it 10 minutes later." 07:57 <@Dolemite> Then I went back to Advance Auto to get the CORRECT size fuel filter. 07:58 <@Evilpig> ashley's boss was trying to stay open. he started with "this is against the constitution and they're trampling my rights" to it says pet supply in our name so we're essential even though they don't sell pet supplies and are just a beauty shop for dogs 08:33 <@Corydon76_> Evilpig: I love people who declare things to be unconstitutional who clearly never read the damn thing. 08:36 <@Corydon76_> It's not even a stretch to say that a public health emergency falls under "promote the general Welfare" 08:42 <@dc0de> It's clearly too bad that people don't understand infection rates and math. 08:43 <@Mirage> I think my wife summed it up nicely a couple days ago when she said "Too bad common sense isn't really all that common" 08:43 <@dc0de> "Common Sense - The ultimate Oxymoron" - Unknown 08:46 <@Mirage> http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/20200329-bahariya-and-farafra-egypts-bizarre-desert-landscape 08:46 < PigBot> BBC - Travel - Bahariya and Farafra: Egypt’s bizarre, desert landscape (at www.bbc.com) http://tinyurl.com/t3gyyby 10:05 <@Mirage> Having a fun argument with a co-worker about the fact that I can't do my job because my work phone died and I haven't gotten the replacement yet, so I don't have access to my secondary auth device (Microsoft Authenticator) and RSA tokens since they reside on the phone. 10:45 -!- Netsplit *.net <-> *.split quits: ant|_ 10:45 -!- Netsplit over, joins: ant|_ 10:48 -!- Imgur[m] [nebimgurma@gateway/shell/matrix.org/x-qfvscmlqwowqvhkt] has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds] 10:57 -!- eryc is now known as e-- 11:20 -!- dc0de [~jim@198.46.153.211] has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds] 11:48 -!- Imgur[m] [nebimgurma@gateway/shell/matrix.org/x-pqkuunbolwwmyals] has joined #se2600 12:18 -!- dc0de [~jim@198.46.153.211] has joined #se2600 12:18 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o dc0de] by ChanServ 12:44 -!- e-- is now known as e--------------- 13:06 <@Mirage> lol.. https://getaka.co.in/usa-news/conservative-pastor-who-refused-to-close-church-amid-coronavirus-pandemic-suggests-god-will-help-by-multiplying-toilet-rolls/ 13:06 < PigBot> Conservative Pastor Who Refused to Close Church Amid Coronavirus Pandemic Suggests God Will Help By Multiplying Toilet Rolls – Getaka (at getaka.co.in) http://tinyurl.com/ssheh7f 13:23 < Synx_hm> holy shit https://slickdeals.net/f/13937120-wendy-s-free-jr-frosty-with-any-drive-thru-purchase 13:24 < PigBot> Wendy’s: Get a Jr. Frosty with Every Drive-thru Order - Slickdeals.net (at slickdeals.net) http://tinyurl.com/vubbslq 13:36 <@e---------------> they do that every year 13:37 <@Corydon76_> Jr Frosty, aka the 60 cent variety.

Most of the people going out and buying them in a panic are the people that likely shouldn't really have a gun if they suddenly decided it was needed because of the "crisis". 15:59 <@Corydon76_> On the flip side, it may mean that less of the public decides that they really want gun control, if it means that they can't access one when they think they really need to. 16:00 <@Corydon76_> I think what the panic buying has really started cementing in people's minds is that they can't rely upon the stores to be their 'extra' in a time of emergency. They need to have that 'extra' already in the pantry. 16:39 <@_NSAKEY> So the gun stores that are also out of everything are their next best bet? 16:40 <@_NSAKEY> I think I get what you meant, but a lot of these panic buyers are idiots. 17:10 <@dc0de> tl:dr - panic buyers are idiots 17:21 <@opticron> ehh, most of the panic buying isn't driven by rational thought, though whether those thought patterns deviate much from normal... 17:23 -!- rpifan [~rpifan@p200300D267146409420FCA263960A906.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #se2600 17:44 -!- e--------------- is now known as e-- 18:51 -!- rpifan [~rpifan@p200300D267146409420FCA263960A906.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 18:54 -!- rpifan [~rpifan@p200300D267146409420FCA263960A906.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #se2600 18:55 -!- rpifan [~rpifan@p200300D267146409420FCA263960A906.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 20:51 <@Mirage> https://www.forbes.com/sites/johanmoreno/2020/03/30/google-forgoing-april-fools-jokes-this-year/#b198a3d2fe0b 20:51 < PigBot> Google Forgoing April Fools’ Jokes This Year (at www.forbes.com) http://tinyurl.com/ufz829c --- Log closed Tue Mar 31 00:00:40 2020
