09:12 <@Mirage> Same thing but $125 more from HD.  Supposedly they match online prices + shipping (not sure how they handle Prime free shipping), but I may be testing them on it in a bit,
09:13 < eryc> in the past stores have only matched items shipped and sold by amazon
09:13 <@Mirage> Neighbor let me borrow his old GE portable A/C that he sometimes uses to cool his garage off a bit when he can't avoid having to do stuff in it during the summer, but something's up with it and it keep deciding to stop cooling and just blow hot air around.
09:14 <@Dagmar> Compressor is failing
09:15 <@Mirage> Dagmar: kind of my guess.  Found a manual and parts breakdown of it last night so I could figure out how to tear it down a bit in order to clean the condensor/evaporator coils real well as my neighbor said he'd never done it.
09:16 <@Mirage> It's old enough that the only "part" available for it from GE or any of the aftermarket dealers is the filter.

11:23 <@Dolemite> Not exactly.   I think that's an older model than what I had.
11:23 <@Dolemite> It looks like the prior generation where it was not as wide - meaning when you tried to pull yourself back on it from the water it had a tendency to roll on you.
11:24 <@Dolemite> But pictures can be deceiving
11:26 <@Dolemite> Actually, that is like the one I had.   I found pictures of a 1993 model and it was definitely narrower.

11:27 <@Dolemite> It also didn't have the extra body behind the seat, which was probably added for more stabilization.
11:40 <@Mirage> haha...there's another 10 years newer with a trailer and "needs some fibreglass repair on the bottom because it looks like it hit a stump" for $3200.   yeah, right
11:45 < Evilpig_> aestetix: yes, and supposedly HR is doing something about my complaint.  my manager is out on PTO and will be back next week so this momentary calm I am feeling I expect to shatter on monday and return me to the fetal position
11:46 <@Dolemite> Mirage: LOL, $3200 for a needs work one?  Screw that.
11:53 <@Mirage> Evilpig_: justice would be him getting a call regarding the complaint 5 minutes after getting back from PTO

11:54 < Evilpig_> if this were a movie, that would be amazing
11:55 < Evilpig_> i've not worked on my designated project yet today, i've instead been working on operational issues and helping my coworkers and I'm in a much better place mentally

12:26 < Evilpig_> ford dealer just called and told me they still don't have my car fixed, but I can come pick it up for the weekend if needed.  they supposedly have a call in to ford engineering to help troubleshoot
12:26 < Evilpig_> pretty sure if I picked it up this issue would be dead and i'd be stuck with a switch that doesnt' work correctly.  fuck that, keep it, fix it

12:50 <@Mirage> Why is it that Christian feel the extreme need to constantly proclaim their faith to everyone...and of course try to push their religion on you as well.  No one I've ever know who was ~christian has EVER tried to push their religion on me or even stated which, if any, they followed unless expressly asked or unless there was a valid reason for them to mention it.
13:07 < Evilpig_> Mirage: I see the pride stuff similarly.  I have no need to know you're gay or anything else
13:08 < Evilpig_> I've not once felt the need to waive a flag announcing to anyone where I like to rub my genitals
13:32 <@Mirage> Evilpig_: Yeah, true.  
13:33 <@Mirage> Well, on the first part anyway.. that second comment might be debatable w/ you.  =P
13:52 < Evilpig_> if aestetix gets to rub up on dolemite, i'm gonna do it to.  and I need an audience if i'm gonna finish.  I'm sorry but it is what it is
14:24 <@aestetix> Evilpig_: agreed re: pride stuff
14:24 <@aestetix> What I say in the bay area..... the atheist pride bluehairs were actually more aggressive than the christians I've seen in the south
14:24 <@aestetix> not a fan of either group

15:30 <@Mirage> the worst are the ginger ppl whining about the sun.  All secretly vampires if you ask me.  =)
15:39 <@Mirage> Typical.  That same PM just him me up as per his norm at 3:30 Fri afternoon wanting me to do something for him.
15:46 <@Catonic> Mirage: Hey, um... I'm gonna need you to come in tomorrow... and uh... Sunday as well. We've got a big crunch on, so we need all hands on deck....
15:54 <@Mirage> Well, i got pulled into a change yesterday when they ran into problems that I was able to resolve for them. There's a subsequent change for tonight/tomorrow for 4 other servers that were identified as being impacted by the same thing.  A request was submitted by the customer for someone (aka out India team) to be available during the change to perform this extra step just for those servers (the change has 
15:54 <@Mirage> a couple dozen systems in scope).  At this point my confidence level, based on their dumb questions, is pretty damn high with regard to me being called and pulled in again because instead of just doing what they've been told to do, they want all the details about the enture change which has nothing to do with them.
15:55 <@Mirage> We need to step in for that one extra step only because the groups who are implementing teh change don't have access to this one bit of infra, and we're not going to give it to them.
16:16 <@Mirage> woohoo... 104.7 outside right now with another hour to go before the normal peak time.
16:17 <@Dagmar> I'm going to have to to step outside to have a smoke because fucking TurboTax has done fuck all about the "Can't print your reports" issue and doesn't have any way to escalate to someone who knows what the fuck they're doing
16:17 <@Dagmar> I'm kinda tempted to go back into their system and see if one of the options they keep offering involves "inflict this bullshit on an actual accountant"
16:18 <@Dagmar> ...which would make both ends of the problem their goddamn problem
16:23 <@Mirage> Why are you mucking about w/ TurboTax in July?
16:23 <@Dagmar> Because that's how long it's taken to show that they don't have a fucking clue how their system works
16:23 <@Dagmar> I paid in advance back in April so I wouldn't be getting hit with penalties for not paying
16:24 <@Dagmar> ...but although the fuckwits can come up with numbers, they can't actually generate the goddamn forms or give me any useful details about them
16:24 <@Dagmar> I am kinda tempted to just delete the goddamn cryptocurrency out of the profile since it represents $320 of not income
16:28 <@Dagmar> What makes it even more infuriating is that I paid early and _overpaid_ because I didn't have the right information about the stimulus money
16:29 <@Dagmar> When I correct that (which amounts to a $700 refund) TurboTax's system says I have a $5 for underpayment
16:29 <@Dagmar> For underpayment

19:15 <@Mirage> For bystanders, yeah..understandable.  What about all the people who want to record their own personal 1:1 interaction w/ law enforcement?  Be a damned shame if something were to happen after a 'suspect' complied with stopping a recording and 'somehow' the officer's body cam 'mysteriously' stopped recording for that interraction.
19:16 <@Mirage> They have this clause, but I think they will easily figure out how to get around it: 'The law also states that someone who is the subject of a law enforcement activity and the occupants of a vehicle stopped by police may record their interactions as long as it does not interfere with “lawful police actions.'
20:27 < Evilpig_> You really can't expect that to be enforced.  if the cop is out in the open they have no reasonable right privacy.  assuming the intention is to stop people filming shit for worldstar and getting up in cops faces, I can get behind the sentiment but trying to tell someone they can't record in a public setting just because the subject is law enforcement is naive
20:28 < Evilpig_> what's to stop someone from saying they're filming the grass for an art project and the cop is in his shot ruining their project?
20:28 < Evilpig_> I'd kinda like to watch that play out in court
