05:48 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
05:58  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
06:22 <@Dolemite> One good thing about working from home all this time is that I'm going back and watching some TV series that I really enjoyed
06:22 <@Dolemite> One bad thing about working from home all this time is that I'm running out of material to watch
06:23 <@Dolemite> But I do like having stuff on in the background
06:26 <@Dolemite> Currently going back through the Ronald D. Moore version of Battlestar Galactica.   I always had fond memories of it, but had forgotten just how good it is.
06:45 < aestetix> Dolemite: just ask Evilpig for access to his collection
06:46 < aestetix> doesn't he have like 80 TB of stuff?
06:46 <@Dolemite> I have access to his collection
06:46 <@Dolemite> We have mostly the same sources, as well
06:46 <@Dolemite> He just collects all of his in 4K, while I crank most of mine down to 720p to save space
06:47 <@Dolemite> But he also collects absolute trash, like reality tv series
06:48 <@Dolemite> I like to give him shit about his 1080p copies of 90-day Fiance.
07:02 <@Dolemite> Evilpig: Yeah, that treehouse grove place was on the news last week
07:31 < aestetix> why the hell does he have shows like that
07:31 < aestetix> at least something like gordon ramsay you get to watch him insult people
07:32 <@Dolemite> Well, for one thing, he lets pretty much everybody with access to his collection add series to his Sonarr config
07:32 <@Dolemite> So it's not all stuff he watches
07:35 < aestetix> does he also have 600 lb life
07:35 <@Dolemite> lemme look
07:36 <@Dolemite> nope
07:38 < aestetix> we have now exhausted the reality tv shows I know about
07:39 <@Evilpig> aestetix: clearly you have not seen the train wreck that is 90 day fiance or you wouldn't be asking that
07:39 < aestetix> so he DOES watch them
07:39 <@Evilpig> that one I admit to completely
07:40 < aestetix> I've never actually seen it
07:40 < aestetix> I guess I should watch an episode
07:40 < aestetix> what is the premise?
07:40 < aestetix> I mean I can gather from the title
07:41 <@Evilpig> Americans that meet foreigners to marry and what happens when they bring them to the states on the K1 visa.  They've got 90 days to get married before the visa is up and they are now illegals
07:42 < aestetix> are the foreigners men or women
07:42 <@Evilpig> both
07:43 <@Corydon76> Irony is that with the coronavirus lockdown, I'm watching much less consumable media than before.  I've been working on the yard, a reason to get out of the house without going anywhere.
07:43 <@Evilpig> Dolemite: i've been working my way through ncis: los angeles, two and a half men, and the office
07:44 <@Evilpig> Also the creepshow series was pretty good, it got me a little jumpy a time or two
07:49 < aestetix> so this is basically a mail order bride tv show
07:50 <@Evilpig> yup
07:50 <@Dolemite> My son has to read a minimum of 2 books this summer, so he chose the His Dark Materials trilogy (based upon my recommendation).   He does 50ish pages per day, so we're watching the HBO series just slightly lagged behind his reading schedule.
07:51 <@Dolemite> Otherwise I'm pretty much sticking to just one series at a time, unless a new episode comes of of something else - which is quite rare, right now.
07:51 <@Dolemite> Snowpiercer and Stargirl are about it for the new stuff at the moment
07:52 <@Evilpig> american dad has new episodes right now.  there's a new season of F is for family on friday
07:52 <@Evilpig> a new season of alone starts on thursday too
07:52 <@Dolemite> I never really watched American Dad.   Haven't even heard of F is for Family.
07:53 <@Dolemite> or Alone
07:53 < aestetix> I saw a few episodes of F is for Family
07:53 < aestetix> I didn't really like it
07:54 <@Evilpig> alone is a survival reality show.  10 folks get dropped off in some random location and whomever lasts the longest wins 100k
07:54 <@Evilpig> they film their own exploits and have regular health checks plus a sat phone for emergency + tapout
07:54 <@Dolemite> Ah, I saw previews for that when I was watching something on DIY or Food Network.
07:54 <@Dolemite> Or maybe it was a Facebook ad
07:55 <@Evilpig> A couple of them were pulled out because they weren't getting enough calories to survive, a few have slipped and broken things cutting their shit short, as far as reality tv is concerned it's about as genuine as you can get
07:56 <@Dolemite> The main reality shows I watch are things like Maine Cabin Masters, Guy's Grocery Games, or Diners, Drive-ins & Dives
07:57 <@Evilpig> oh! there's a new what we do in the shadows on wednesday too
08:05 <@Evilpig> sabrina has burned through two of the hunger games books already.  gonna need to take a trip to mckays here soon
08:18 <@Evilpig> Dolemite: did you ever check out Trial & Error before they canceled it?
08:26 <@Dolemite> nope
08:32 < aestetix> wow this show is unreal
08:32 < aestetix> there are mail order brides getting into fights with each other over a fat american guy
08:33 < aestetix> I guess they are desparate to get out of russia
08:34 <@opticron> how long until it goes the other direction?
08:44 <@Evilpig> opticron: they have that spin off
08:44 <@Evilpig> 90 day fiance: the other way
08:44 <@Evilpig> I have not watched that one
08:56 <@Shadow404> Gah, with so many people unemployed, lots of companies seem to be lowering their new hire salaries
08:56 <@Shadow404> Seems to be an employers market again
08:58 <@Corydon76> Predictably so.  But I think once the vaccine arrives, we'll likely ramp back up to full employment again within 6 months.
08:58 <@Corydon76> When the vaccine arrives is anybody's guess.
08:59 <@Corydon76> December is the earliest possible for a vaccine for GA.  And everything has to go exactly right for that to happen.
09:00 <@opticron> Evilpig, LOL
09:01 <@Evilpig> Corydon76: if some of this new research proves to be valid and folks with AB blood aren't developing antibodies, getting a general vaccine will be a major issue
09:03 <@Corydon76> Evilpig: what I'm reading says that those with blood type A are the higher group.
09:03 <@Corydon76> Type AB didn't seem to be affected either way.

09:05 <@Dolemite> Yeah, I'm not too thrilled reading those articles, since I have A+ blood
09:06 <@Corydon76> Evilpig: our two articles appear to say the same thing.
09:07 <@Evilpig> different info but similar, yes
09:07 <@Corydon76> Type AB is 9% of the population and was 10% of the studied population.  In other words, not any more likely to be affected.
09:07 <@Corydon76> Dolemite: when's the last time you had your Vitamin D levels checked?
09:08 <@Dolemite> I have an annual physical/blood draw, but I don't think that's a test that's run unless you specificall ask for it
09:08 < aestetix> fuck you Evilpig
09:08 <@Corydon76> I've seen an observational study which suggests that low Vitamin D levels correlate strongly to poor outcomes.
09:08 < aestetix> now I'm watching this godawful show
09:09 <@Evilpig> aestetix: you're welcome.
09:10 <@Evilpig> It really is a trainwreck that you can't turn away from
09:10 <@Corydon76> My suspicion on the results is that if you have any deficiency at all, that can impair your body's ability to fight off viruses.  So doing a *complete* blood panel (not just a "full" blood panel) may help discover what you need to supplement.
09:10 < aestetix> everyone on this show is horrible
09:10 <@Corydon76> That, however, is not considered "supported" by the evidence just yet.
09:17 < aestetix> ok I had to turn it off
09:17 < aestetix> I'm going to watch something more redeeming, like to catch a predator
09:21 <@Dolemite> Man I wish I'd had more capital to invest back in March/April when stocks were down
09:22 <@Dolemite> My retirement accounts took about a $100K loss at the big dip in March, and as of last week they're back even with pre-pandemic levels.
09:30 <@opticron> yeah, I think mine have just recovered to that level, too
09:30 <@opticron> lowest dip was 6-12mo of loss
09:31 <@Dolemite> We bought some Royal Caribbean and Carnival stocks during the dip and they're gaining like gangbusters right now.   Also for grins, my wife bought a couple hundred shared of JC Penney when it was at I think $0.09/share and it's even going back up.
09:32 <@Dolemite> er, sorry, $0.11
09:32 <@Dolemite> Now it's back up to $0.49/share

11:12 <@Mirage> Evilpig: Re AB blood... I hadn't seen that, but that sucks for the wife and I because we are both AB+
11:13 <@Corydon76> Mirage: the article doesn't say AB blood is affected.  I don't know where Pig is seeing that.
11:14 <@Corydon76> Type A is affected.
11:16 <@Mirage> Yeah, That's all I saw in that article.  Where'd AB come up from?
11:16 <@Mirage> Oh, I skimmed over your response to pig...nevermind.
11:16  * Mirage needs to stop multi-multi-multi-tasking
11:21 <@Evilpig> the ab was mentioned in the graphics related to antibodies being produced
11:45 <@Corydon76> Evilpig: that's referring not to the antibodies against COVID-19, but antibodies in the blood against other blood types.
11:45 <@Corydon76> Antibodies in the blod are why we have to match blood types for blood transfusions.
11:47 <@Corydon76> People with O-type blood can give red blood cells to anybody, but their plasma is toxic to anybody else.  Similarly, people with AB blood can give plasma to anybody, but their red blood cells will be attacked by persons with any other type.
12:21 <@Mirage> Which is why the wife and I having the same type works out nicely.   Haven't had need, but we both kjnow exactly where to find a donor.
12:23 <@Mirage> I also have a couple of cousins that are also AB+.   At least it's not the crazy rare one.. My maternal grandpa was AB- and so it was always hard to find blood for him when he needed it.

22:14 <@Dagmar> It's pretty far off yet, but all the projections say unless a f**king vaccine gets here this really isn't going to get significantly better until next year
22:18 <@Dagmar> The State Fair is usually mid-September
