07:13 <@Mirage> Finally a musical was worked into The Orville.  =)
07:14 <@Mirage> Lost a couple "friends" on FB yesterday after my post regarding inflation in the UK.  Cried myself to sleep last night over it.  llololol

08:16 <@Dolemite> new movie?
08:19 < Evilpig_> yup
08:20 < Evilpig_> starting today they're supposed to be re-releasing all 200 episodes remastered complete with the music videos as well
08:20 < Evilpig_> I'm a few minutes into the movie and it's the same.  rofl
08:22 < Evilpig_> https://imdb.com/title/tt11615616/
08:22 < PigBot> Gatlopp (2022) - IMDb (at imdb.com) 
08:22 < Evilpig_> this showed up overnight too
08:29 <@Dolemite> Fuck, there went the power, again.   I switched one of my poweredge servers to straight up surge protection so at least my main hypervisor box stayed on this time
08:29 <@Dolemite> I need to pick up another UPS to handle the load
08:31 < Evilpig_> I bet you can find a treadmill or two and harness some spare teenage energy 
08:32 <@Dolemite> LOL, shit, treadmills don't work when the kid is glued to their gaming chair
08:34 <@Mirage> Not liking the new Star Trek ep so far
08:34 <@Dolemite> Haven't started it, yet.   Not trusting the power grid right now.
08:34 <@Dolemite> Which is odd, since yesterday was the hottest day so far this year and there were no issues.
08:43 <@Mirage> 5 100+ days so far here, by my weather station.  Forecast is for 100+ the next 4 days as well.
08:44 <@Mirage> Low-mid 90's first of next week.  May need to pull out a jacket
08:45 <@Mirage> Evilpig_: when were you planning to get that tire replaced?  Curious as to what they find.
08:47 < Evilpig_> called AAA 30 minutes ago and tow truck on the way.  taking it to firestone and they said they'll work it in sometime today
08:48 <@Dolemite> What happened to the car?
08:48 <@Dolemite> ah, tire
08:48 < Evilpig_> https://photos.app.goo.gl/H48eWVMhm1CJ6jZy6
08:48 < PigBot> No Title (at photos.app.goo.gl) 
08:49 < Evilpig_> ash told me her car has been riding funny for hte last month and I needed to drive it to see what is up
08:49 < Evilpig_> so we took it yesterday up to grand rivers and back and it's got issues for sure.
08:49 < Evilpig_> just as we got nearly home her low pressure light came on and within a few minutes of being home the tire was flat.  
08:49 <@Dolemite> Erm.   Yeah.

08:50 < PigBot> How To Inspect Your Ball Joints & Tie Rod Ends For Wear - YouTube (at www.youtube.com) 
08:50 <@Dolemite> It kinda needs rubber covering all the steel belts in order to hold the air in.
08:50 < Evilpig_> texted Mirage last night with that picture and was trying to figure out if it was bearing, a snapped tie rod, cv joint.  what could cause the camber to be off that much
08:53 < Evilpig_> that also lead to a discussion last night of "I have what?  What's triple a?"
08:54 < Evilpig_> eta on tow truck 10:15
08:59 <@Mirage> Evilpig_: one thing I didn't think about yesterday is that it could be a bent control arm, which w/ Nashville roads wouldn't be a big suprise
09:00 <@Mirage> My money is on lower ball joint or wheel bearing, though
09:00 < Evilpig_> i'll let you know 
09:01 <@Mirage> Don;t give them any ideas.. just tell them to check and see what caused the wear.  You go mentioning things and they have a tendency to also need replaced even when not bad..just cause you said something

10:54 < Evilpig_> I think bearing is back off the table.  after getting the tire off the hub is freely spinning it wasn't making any noise and it didn't feel like it was catching along the movement.  there was no shimmy in any direction.  the hub was damn near fused on,  took both me and the tow truck driver to break it loose
11:12 < Evilpig_> the turds are at it again.  https://www-newschannel5-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.newschannel5.com/news/house-republicans-urge-gov-lee-to-block-tdh-from-distributing-covid-19-vaccines-to-young-children?_amp=true&amp_gsa=1&amp_js_v=a9&usqp=mq331AQIKAGwASCAAgM%3D#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=16560006286719&csi=1&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newschannel5.com%2Fnews%2Fhouse-republicans-urge-gov-lee-to-block-tdh-from-distributing-covid-19-vaccines-to-young-children

11:17 <@Dolemite> Ugh.   The very worst of people control nearly all the state legislatures across the South.  I don't see how they keep getting elected.
11:30 < Evilpig_> because they redrew the zones to keep them there

13:22 <@Mirage> ppl that keep saying that you get more fuel at the gas pump by getting it at night vs during the day because "it's cooler outside and therefore the density is higher" are overlooking the fact that it's stored underground and the temperature doesn't really fluctuate other than when they're filling the tank up during a delivery
13:23 <@Mirage> And even then it doesn't change enough to effect the density of the gasoline by THAT much
13:30 <@Mirage> Has anyone seen anywhere showing graphs of gas demand pre/post covid?  i would think that even now it's noticeably lower due to the number of companies that switched to or at least continued to allow remote workers post-covid
13:44 <@Dolemite> Leisure travel is up.   That's where I see a lot of the fuel demand.
13:45 < eryc> i thought the keynesian economy works like this
13:45 < eryc> low demand = high prices
13:45 < eryc> high demand = high prices
13:46 < eryc> where price is the product of what you can get people to pay and what you can get people to pay
13:53 <@Mirage> Well, one thing I see as possibly being more of a factor now vs pre-covid is that with so many people working 100% remote that the jump in demand during the summer when they start traveling and doing things makes a bigger impact on supply since they don't normally use much gas at all.
13:53 <@Mirage> I know that unlike before I'm filling up monthly (if that) vs weekly.
14:04 < Evilpig_> same here
14:05 < Evilpig_> granted for nearly a year pre-covid I was mostly working from home and had already switched to the monthly fill ups.  ash has driven nearly double what I have somehow
14:08 < Evilpig_> and since i've been on PTO for the last month my grocery runs have increased to generally three times a week now instead of one.  kids being in the house consuming milk like I cannot describe and just general poor planning on my part not getting everything for the week in a single go
14:21 <@Dolemite> Evilpig_: We've learned not to ask Patrick to help unload groceries.   If he's aware that we have a new jug of milk, it will be gone before morning.
15:53 <@Mirage> Lol... Kinzinger caught himself before saying Conspiracy Shit and quickly corrected to Theory
19:41 <@Mirage> "I scored"  "I watched"
20:20 <@Mirage> Evilpig_: What was the verdict on the car?
20:28 < Evilpig_> haven't heard yet.  they are hoping to work it in tomorrow
20:35 <@Mirage> gotcha
21:21 <@Dagmar> Lordy
21:21 <@Dagmar> It's the same shit it's been the last FIVE times
21:21 <@Dagmar> 1. Something threatens the endless stream of petroleum
21:21 <@Dagmar> 2. Speculators buy up all the gas futuresm driving the price up
21:22 <@Dagmar> 3. Everyone sells the markedly more expensive gas.
21:22 <@Dagmar> 4. Everyone *buys* the more expensive gas
