WHY?!?! 09:02 <@Dolemite> Just calculated up the difference... at the current gas prices the savings in fuel costs would pay for 2/3 of a new hybrid car payment. Too bad you can't find new cars for sale. 09:14 <@Dolemite> Of course, that's partially because I currently drive an old minivan that gets 17 MPG in the city and am looking at downsizing to a sedan. But the leap of 17 -> 55 MPG for my primary mode of driving is huge. 09:21 <@Mirage> Anyone else see this as mostly pointless? https://www.npr.org/2022/03/16/1086781293/facebook-vr-kids-parental-controls 09:21 < PigBot> Facebook will block kids from downloading age-inappropriate virtual reality apps : NPR (at www.npr.org) https://tinyurl.com/ybuvwzso 09:22 <@Mirage> God knows I don't use my real birthdate for anything on the net. 09:23 <@Dolemite> Mirage: You mean you weren't born on Feb 29th? 09:24 <@Mirage> Jan 1, 1970. easily remembered 09:35 <@Mirage> So which jackasses in congress will go against the Daylight Savings bill? None, the usual ones, or someone you'd never expect? 09:37 <@Dolemite> Well since it's a Democrat in office right now... 09:37 <@Dolemite> Even though it's an issue that has had bipartisan support for years 09:39 <@Dolemite> MTG and Boebert will probably claim that the Democrats are pushing it so that it will be easier for Putin to coordinate his attacks on the US after he finishes with Ukraine 09:39 <@Mirage> Yeah, those are the two I expect to start spewing nonsense. 09:40 <@Dolemite> Or that switching times twice a year disrupts the microchips in the Covid vaccine and it's imperative that we keep doing it 09:40 <@Mirage> Nah, that'll be Tucker and the podcasters angle 09:43 <@Mirage> I wow'd the wife last night after a helicopter did a dozen or so loops around the neighborhood just SE of us. Hopped on and looked up active flights, found the helicopter, then found that it was (as I'd guessed) owned by the Dept of Public Safety 09:44 <@Mirage> She thought it was cool being able to look up pretty much any flight and track it. 09:44 <@Dolemite> Including Elon Musk's private jet! LOL 09:47 <@Mirage> Amazon needs to hurry up w/ my delivery before the afternoon meetings arrive. My Jabra GN2000 died so I had to go to this bluetooth one that was highly recommended but turned out to be a complete PoS IMO. 09:49 <@Mirage> Couldn't get the GN2000 mono-USB anymore, so trying out the GN2100. Hopefully the extra earpiece pads that I had for my old one will fit the new one too. 09:50 <@Mirage> Tried to use my gaming headset w/ mixed results because they recently revoked us having default local admin on our laptops. Makes doing certain things really annoying. 10:43 <@Dolemite> Ugh. Some people have no pride in what they produce. Started watching Mr. Mayor from last night and it looked like a VHS copy of a VHS copy of a VHS copy, yet it was labeled as 720p. 10:57 <@Dolemite> "I'm not sure about spoons. The science isn't there, yet." 10:57 <@Dolemite> I love the comparison of the antivaxxers to the weird guy in line at the DMV eating yogurt with his tongue. 12:26 <@Dolemite> Another day, another researcher who asked for a code signing certificate and then has no clue how to use it. 12:26 <@Dolemite> *sigh* 12:57 < Evilpig> Dolemite: I refuse to watching any of those til I get a good clean 1080 15:29 <@Mirage> Evilpig: When I think about most things I know you watch, "good" and "clean" are not words that immediately spring to mind. 15:31 < Evilpig> content not withstanding, good and clean refer to audio in sync, no random ads on the screen, etc not some jackass with a camcorder lurking in the shadows crunching on popcorn through the entire thing 15:53 < Evilpig> someone is about to learn that making arbitrary requirements just anger me 15:55 < Evilpig> had a request in to create something like 50 groups for this AD conversion project going on. the identity folks sat on it for over a month and rejected it for... I used hyphens instead of underscores and they declared you have to use underscores in the new naming scheme 15:56 < Evilpig> okay... fuck you very much. I converted them all. they then rejected it because I didn't put descriptions on the groups even though the current ones don't have them and the name of the group is descriptive because i'm not fucking retarded 15:56 < Evilpig> SG-GTM_Admins,ಠ__ಠ,General,SG-Infoblox_Admin,hslinux, 15:56 < Evilpig> the second field is the description 15:56 < Evilpig> SG-GTM_EMR_Operators,(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻,General,SG-Infoblox_Admin,hslinux, 15:56 < Evilpig> SG-MCIT_DDI_IPAM_RW,(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻,General,SG-Infoblox_Admin,hslinux, 15:57 < Evilpig> I double checked their policy, it says there must be a description, doesn't say what it has to be. I nearly just put a period in every one but decided instead to test their data validation with some utf-8 16:23 <@Dagmar> They need some Zalgo in their lives 16:24 < Evilpig> I considered that as well 16:24 < Evilpig> these arbitrary requirements of theirs infuriate me 16:25 < Evilpig> they've also stipulated that you cannot arbitrarily nest groups. all nesting requests have to go to them and be approved and they will then make the entry 18:16 <@eryc> nesting in AD is broken --- Log closed Thu Mar 17 00:00:44 2022
