07:16 <@Mirage> I love how everyone is railing on the Clinton bit from the DNC because he was also impeached, but so far I haven't seen anyone mention the fact that Clinton at least publicly apologized for his actions whereas Trump hasn't and never will.
07:24 < lastchild> the clinto thing revolved around a BJ from a fat girl, not treason, big difference
07:24 < lastchild> clinton*
07:30 <@Mirage> Yeah, but when first confronted about the allegations he lied.  Granted I would have too, but still..
07:37 < lastchild> hell, i'd have bragged about it, she was chubby not fugly

07:53 < lastchild> now we need a bourbon factory to malfunction and i'll concur with the comments
07:57 <@Evilpig> lastchild: last time we had a bourbon mishap it lead to a river full of dead fish
07:58 < lastchild> lucky fish
07:59 <@Evilpig> my neighbor is irritating.   her) I want my kids to be more independant and responsible so they will do better in school
08:00 <@Evilpig> also her) it's my day off so I let them sleep in and woke them up when their online class started instead of making them stick to their schedule
08:01 < lastchild> Evilpig: she deserves the hell she'screated
08:03 <@Evilpig> on the agenda today.  I ordered two of these back on the 21st of last month.  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079JLY5M5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

08:03 <@Evilpig> the reviews looked fine.  after getting them I have the problem that many of the low scores are reporting with key delay, dropping connection, etc
08:03 <@Evilpig> thinking I should return them today and get a non-logitech replacement 
08:04 < lastchild> Evilpig: heh, i finnaly had to change the batteries in my k400 after 2 years. best keyboard ever
08:07 <@Evilpig> I lost the receiver to mine and ended up throwing it out since it wouldn't pair to one of the unifying dongles
08:09 <@Evilpig> thinking this might be the best replacement.  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015SIXSCU?pf_rd_r=KF0WR4QF60BQ0H6AXB8S&pf_rd_p=edaba0ee-c2fe-4124-9f5d-b31d6b1bfbee

08:11 < lastchild> not bad, i prefer the touchpad but if for actual desktop use that looks okay
08:17 <@Evilpig> the children are using these for school, they aren't super great with a mouse.  trying to get them to use the touchpad on the keyboard while two finger typing won't go well
08:18 < lastchild> i wish i had my old trackball style one. bitch to keep clean but man it was smooth
08:24 <@Mirage> The only style trackball I ever liked was this one. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/b3/6d/3b/b36d3b926ba95b414865f60cb20328c4.jpg

08:50 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
08:50 <@Mirage> Something is definitely not right with this picture.
08:51 <@Evilpig> Mirage: you're about to get a new meeting from HR
08:51 <@Evilpig> it's the only explanation
08:52 < lastchild> i used the grandchild as an excuse to avoid the "town hall" VUIT meeting today
08:57 <@Dolemite> Mirage: I love that the dance video maker is obviously a fan of Clerks 2.
08:59 <@Mirage> Yeah
08:59 <@Mirage> I figured you'd enjoy it
09:03 <@Mirage> Last night the wife gets home from work and starts telling me about how "everyone was just cracking up at work today", so I naturally asked what she'd done.
09:03 <@Mirage> That got me hit, of course

09:51 <@Mirage> Some of these bank roll coin searchers on youtube are just mental.  They go through a circulated box of machine rolled coins which have already oviously held up to being jostled around then make some "awesome" find which prompts them to break out the white gloves, etc.  Um, yeah...that coin is over 50-60 years old...I don't think you touching it one last time before stapling it into a coin sleeve is going to suddenly make it disintegrate like some 2000 year o

10:11 <@Dolemite> Their response - "What's a change?"
10:12 <@Dolemite> Meanwhile I have to enter in a Standard Change just to fill in 3 blanks to setup a new SAML profile
10:21 < lastchild> that trumps the SR i got to unlock a rack. Really dude pick up the fucking phone
10:47 <@Mirage> lastchild: lol...watching a video on youtube of a guy fixing a brush hog.  To clear off all the crude he grabs a gas powered leaf blower and says ,"To quote Bill Clinton:  Blowjobs fix everything!", then commences to blow all the junk off.

11:04 <@Mirage> Heh..WHO says CV is being primarily spread by younger adults.   Um, no...it's being primarily spread by people who don't social distance and wear a mask.
11:06 <@Evilpig> are you trying to say that people moving about spread illness?  that makes no sense.  I feel fine!
11:06 <@Dolemite> So younger adults who think they're invicible, and older adult Trump supporters who think it's a violation of their rights as plague whores.

11:35 <@Dolemite> So the company sends me a "gift" for my 10 year anniversary
11:36 <@Dolemite> I get to pay income tax on it, so there's 30% off the top, already
11:36 <@Dolemite> But then it's a prepaid "MasterCard" that says it only works at specific merchants
11:36 <@Dolemite> None of which I EVER buy from.
11:37 <@Dolemite> The sad thing is, for my 5 year gift I would have liked to buy something with the ORNL Logo on it, but the logo store isn't one of the allowed merchants.

11:38 < xray> Plugging the device into a USB 2.0 port fixes the problem.
11:47 <@Evilpig> xray: hrmm.  I think I have them in 2.0 ports now
11:47 <@Evilpig> i'll go check
11:52 <@Evilpig> xray: if that's the case i'm screwed on these all the usb ports are blue so all 3
11:53 <@Evilpig>     Front: 2 x USB 3.0 (1 for fast charge), 2 x Audio
11:53 <@Evilpig>     Rear: Up to 4 x USB 3.0, DisplayPort™ + DisplayPort™, 1 x Punch Out (VGA / HDMI™ / DisplayPort™ / Serial), 1 x LAN, 1 x Audio

11:55 < xray> It might work if you plug a USB 2.0 hub in the USB 3.0 port and move the hub as far from the computer as possible.
11:55 <@Evilpig> that whitepaper says moving the receiver might help, but it also points to other devices being the source of the issue not the port itself
11:56 <@Evilpig> I have my piggy hub that will drop a connection down to usb 2.  worth a shot
11:56 < xray> The problem I was having with my wireless mice sounds just like your problem. I had to move my mouse receiver to the other side of my laptop on the end of an extension cable to fix the problem.
11:57 <@Evilpig> in this case the mouse works fine.  just the keyboard being a twat
11:57 <@Evilpig> same principle though and same receiver.  the weird part is that with them sharing the connection point the mouse never seems to be an issue
