06:06 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
06:08 <@Dolemite> Evilpig_: Yeah, spiderhead was surprisingly decent
06:08 <@Dolemite> New series started from AMC last week that if you liked Longmire you would probably like.   It's called Dark Skies.
06:08 <@Dolemite> Based on Tony Hillerman novels
06:09 <@Dolemite> What caught my eye about it, though, was that it was produced by Robert Redford and George R. R. Martin
07:35 <@Mirage> Dolemite: Link or name correction? Not finding it on IMDB
07:37 <@Mirage> Ah, found it..  Dark Winds. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15017118/

07:37 <@Dolemite> Yeah, sorry, had the wrong name

07:38 <@Dolemite> Chief of Tribal Police is the same actor that played the tribal police guy in Longmire.   Zahn McClarnon
07:39 <@Mirage> Bunch of good ones...most seem like things we all would have done (or have done).  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fV0eyiZGeA

07:40 <@Mirage> I like the last one at the very end.  Should have gotten credit..
07:58 < Evilpig_> sweet christ.  the new episode of bird girl is off the rails
08:25 <@Mirage> Very disappointed in the fact that last night's ep6 of Time Traveler's Wife was the seaon finale.  6 episodes...really?!

10:56 <@Dolemite> I WANT ONE
10:56 <@Mirage> Mount it next to the grill/smoker
10:57 <@Dolemite> No, it belongs in the formal dining room
11:21 <@Mirage> what the actual fuck.  https://thehill.com/homenews/3529666-texas-gop-adopts-measure-declaring-biden-was-not-legitimately-elected/

11:22 <@Dolemite> The entire sunbelt is in a race with itself to out-WTF the other states
11:23 <@Dolemite> DeathSantis won't help facilitate vaccine purchases for Florida.   TN won't let transgender people go pee.   Texas hates gays and women-seeking-abortions equally.
11:35 <@Dagmar> Hmm.. Trying to figure out how to frame some text this morning... "TRUMP - Voter Fraud Expert" or "TRUMP - Expert at Voter Fraud"
12:27 <@Dolemite> TRUMP - Fraudulant Voting Expert
12:33 <@Dagmar> Well, the problem is how do you actually frame that with an image
12:34 <@Dagmar> I just replaced the Gotham font in the yard sign and sticker images for Cafe Press
12:34 <@Dagmar> That one's a "done deal" because it's really easy to parody that stuff, but Gotham isn't a free font and I'm not up for spending the >$100 on licencing it at this point
12:35 <@Dagmar> Should like, 100 people decide they need subtle anti-Trump yard signs tho, I'll go licence the font and change the image slightly
12:37 <@Dagmar> "Trump was right about the voter fraud" "...because he was the one doing it." is a bit wordy
12:54 < Evilpig_> his fraud was after the fact though
13:18 <@Mirage> This actually looks like it might be pretty good.  https://store.steampowered.com/app/990080/Hogwarts_Legacy/

13:24 < Evilpig_> that doesnt' look bad.  
13:27 < Evilpig_> it might get released in december
14:14 <@Dagmar> It's not nice to link to games I'm waiting to come out
14:30 <@Mirage> Wife decided to pack up a bunch of old stuff 'we don't use anymore'...  Even though I'd stated as such when she initially talked about this, she'd packed my favorite small pot that I ALWAYS use for ramen/mac-n-cheez, etc.  She also packed up my old flannel sheets and some other things that don't get used because SHE doesn't choose to use them even though they are perfectly good.
14:53 < Evilpig_> lol  so "we" don't.  it was accurate
14:57 <@Mirage> Abbott appears to have learned well from Trump: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/texas-gov-abbott-vowed-offer-mental-health-help-uvalde-residents-point-rcna32322

14:59 <@Mirage> This is the same kind of shit that was normally reported for most of 'his programs'...which were predominantly enacted by previous administrations originally, then reworded slightly and re-released by Trump with plenty of added loopholes so that at a glance it looked great and in reality it was worthless or almost impossible to take advantage of.
15:01 < Evilpig_> this is the business way.  you make it look like you're offering things, then make them impossible to access so you don't have to pay for them.  then if you're at trump's level you find a way to charge them extra to promise to get them priority access and then do nothing but collect
15:19 <@Dagmar> Sort of like extended car warranties
15:19 <@Dagmar> It can cover every tiny thing on a car, but be incredibly profitable if every time someone calls about it the soonest appointment available in two months
17:48 < Evilpig_> heh.  the company that wrote my extended car warranty is not happy they did so
17:48 < Evilpig_> I've made that motherfucker pay out 
17:50 <@Dagmar> I had to make an "assertive" phone call to get the boy out of one
17:50 <@Dagmar> They were trying to refuse to let him cancel
17:51 <@Dagmar> I wasn't just spinning a tale about not having appointments available for months
17:59 < Evilpig_> I got mine directly with ford when I bought the car.  they've tried to deny several things but I bent 'em over a barrel
17:59 < Evilpig_> warranty covers mechanical but not things like glass.  k.
18:00 < Evilpig_> tried to deny a claim for replacing the motors that work the back windows because it said rear window
18:01 < Evilpig_> flat out told them that the glass is covered because it's a consumable since ford redesigned the mount for the rear windows and the existing perfectly good glass wouldn't fit the new mount they just installed 
18:01 < Evilpig_> they eventually had to cave because I wasn't wrong
18:02 < Evilpig_> and since the ford dealer itself was doing the repair work they couldn't even claim it was the wrong repair, etc
18:03 < Evilpig_> I've got it in right now for the driver's side window not functioning, I expect the same bullshit from them again about not covering windows
19:00 <@Dagmar> Sucks to be them
19:00 <@Dagmar> Either the window is a part of the mechanical assembly and will be replaced when it is, or the existing window better work or they just brought out hte wrong part.  What a shame
19:01 <@Dagmar> Sounds no different than if they decided an axle isn't covered because their new one is 14-feet wide

19:03 <@Dagmar> One would almost think it's a full moon from the amount of kookery I've seen today
19:04 <@Dagmar> One dude actually getting MAD because he refuses to believe that TCP should be completely asynchronous and that the kernel should be able to actually signal the application when the send buffers are empty
19:04 <@Dagmar> He absolultely refused to see that you either use a _blocking close()_ and suck it up, or you deal with the fact that close()ing the socket prematurely can cause data to not be transmitted
19:05 <@Dagmar> I did try and point out to him that IRC servers have already been down that road and why, but they didn't want to listen
19:05 <@Dagmar> I'm hoping he'll come back and declare he's reinvented FIN-cookies so I can be the one to destroy his program
19:06 <@Dagmar> That would make me smile
