03:30 <@aestetix> clerks 3?
03:31 <@aestetix> please tell me that's a joke

08:00 < Evilpig_> kevin smith has been very clear for the last two years he was going to make another clerks that's essentially pure fan service
08:08 < Evilpig_> damn he was talking about it for way way longer than I recall.  https://www.indiewire.com/2014/07/kevin-smith-provides-update-on-clerks-3-planning-tusk-spinoff-is-at-center-of-latest-batman-v-superman-rumor-84163/

15:11 <@Dagmar> Initial setup on the new Chromecast is not fast
15:42 < Evilpig_> didn't know there was an intitial set up.  can't say i've used one in years either though.  is it similar to setting up the google home/nest appliances?
15:42 < eryc> doesnt it install a software update during setup?
15:43 <@Dagmar> Eryc:  Yes.  Plus I *think* judging from what happened when the wife turned on her new Pixel that Google is now using a throttled mechanism for app downloads
15:44 <@Dagmar> Evilpig_: THis is the new 4K model which even does bluetooth and is basically a "Google TV" appliance
15:44 < eryc> my tv has 4k google tv
15:45 < eryc> wait no, i dont think it does 4k yet
15:45 < eryc> netflix and prime do
15:48 < Evilpig_> nifty.  I'll stick with my shields here.  i'd like to hear how well that works for you, maybe i'll suggest it to family members
15:49 <@Dagmar> Surround seems to malfunction with bluetooth, but other than that it's pretty slick
15:49 < Evilpig_> new pixel?  her's break or something?
15:50 <@Dagmar> What's freakin' me out a little is that I have it plugged into my primary monitor which has been used as a TV all of five minutes ever, and it's kicked the TV into 60Hz mode
15:50 < Evilpig_> I saw the thing again this morning that ifixit is offering oem parts now.  pretty sure sabrina's phone is due for a battery so the $35 for the parts looks damn enticing.  https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Parts/Google-Phone

15:50 < Evilpig_> sounds like a cec control?
15:50 <@Dagmar> She just got a Pixel 6 Pro because T-Mobile is basically abandoning people with Samsung Galaxy 9+
15:50 <@Dagmar> ...and she's on wifi
15:50 <@Dagmar> er Google Fi
15:51 < Evilpig_> I like my 6 pro.  it's been damn solid for me
15:51 <@Dagmar> It's a nice phone but it took _many_ minutes for the inital downloading
15:51 < Evilpig_> I've had it nearly a year now, battery still lasts two days, but I am pretty light on the phone usage
15:51 <@Dagmar> Oh wait... hae you had it be quirky about prox charging?
15:51 < Evilpig_> I'm tethered
15:51 <@Dagmar> Ah...
15:52 < Evilpig_> I have a magnet charger dohickey I got off of kickstarter
15:52 <@Dagmar> It did it on my desk this morning when she put the case on it, and then later it just acted like it didn't see a charger anymore

15:53 < Evilpig_> I've thought about getting an induction charger, but I've been using this.  if I ever get wireless android auto in the car i'll likely switch to a wireless charger too
15:55 < Evilpig_> I will say she is gonna like the camera on that thing.  it is an amazing beast
15:59 <@Dagmar> This is the first time I've seen HDMI-CEC actually turn something the fuck off
16:00 < eryc> whats cec? what did it do here?
16:00 < eryc> you had >60hz?
16:00 <@Dagmar> Consumer Electronics Control
16:01 <@Dagmar> Basically, it's a communications bus for TVs and shit
16:01 < Evilpig_> it's a common set of instructions to let a/v gear talk and share remotes, etc
16:01 < eryc> ah
16:01 <@Dagmar> Rokus can turn a TV on, but they don't seem to give a shit about turning it off
16:01 <@Dagmar> I don't know if the TV is doing the frame interpolation or the Chromecast was
16:02 <@Dagmar> I like that I can just _set_ the damn thing to stay in 1920x1080 mode
16:02 <@Dagmar> We have a giant 4K display upstairs, but the fucking kids would watch anime on it which was in 4K for some fucking reason and burned a LOT Of transit
16:05 < Evilpig_> If you're watching food wars, you need it in 4K when the chairman's power kicks in.  You NEED that 4k to see the fine details that they didn't draw in
16:10 < Evilpig_> I figured I actually had some 4k anime but I don't.  only thing that turned up in the search is Star Wars: Visions
16:23 <@Mirage> Dagmar: my FireTV 4k will turn my TV on/off and control the volume via CEC.  Obviously I have it externally powered.
16:28 <@Mirage> lol..we had a "cold front" move through this afternoon that literally dropped the temp 1 deg for less than 45 minutes, then almost immediately jumped up 2 deg to make up for lost time
16:33 <@Mirage> In other news, just finished making Tuna Salad and the cats REALLY love me right now.
16:51 <@Dagmar> 14-20Gb/hour was what it was doing
17:15 < eryc> lol
18:11 < Evilpig_> lol, Mirage 
18:12 < Evilpig_> I just walked in from kroger and stopped at 5 guys to grab a burger so all four animals are sitting beneath me right now thinking they're about to score
18:21 <@Dagmar> hahah
18:21 <@Dagmar> Sh0eonHead has a new video up by the way
18:26 <@Dagmar> ...and as usual, it's like Foamy the Squirrel became a human.
18:32 < Evilpig_> a slur for a bi person "Diet Gays"  heh
18:32 < Evilpig_> that made me smirk
18:32 <@Dagmar> Oh yeah
19:07 < Evilpig_> after finishing that, I had an argument with the kid in this house last week telling me she's pansexual this week
19:08 < Evilpig_> I told her no, you're 13 and have a hormone addled brain, the wind is exciting to you at this age
19:08 < Evilpig_> told her to stop looking up answers to questions on the internet
19:12 <@Dagmar> Sage advice.
20:54 <@Mirage> Evilpig_: but...WebMD.. 
20:54 <@Mirage> =)
20:55 <@Mirage> I think the danger and annoyance of WebMD is probably the only thing that 10/10 doctors would agree on

21:10 <@Mirage> Personally I think this is an excellent idea:  https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jul/09/donald-trump-steve-bannon-executive-privilege-reports
21:10 < PigBot> Trump considers waiving Bannon’s executive privilege claim, reports say | Steve Bannon | The Guardian (at www.theguardian.com) https://tinyurl.com/2fco3o5b
21:11 <@Dagmar> I find it amusing he thinks he has executive privilege to just hand out like party favors
21:12 <@Mirage> Bannon isn't protected by Executive Priv, only the [former] POTUS is in conversations he had.  I'd think that him 'waiving' Exec Priv publicly would mean that whatever Bannon wanted to talk about, if he ever does, would no longer need to be redacted/protected.
21:13 <@Mirage> And as to the [former] POTUS, he's only covered while in office.
21:32 <@Dagmar> You will never guess what the tool to do that is called
21:33 <@Mirage> ?
21:33 <@Dagmar> Just giving someone shit for asking questions without even thinking first
21:33 <@Dagmar> Dude was asking how to cut a log file into pieces
21:34 <@Dagmar> Last night he was utterly baffled by why logrotate doesn't seem to handle auditd's logs.
22:12 <@Mirage> DCI is putting on a show here in town july 26th at 8pm.  Highly tempting except that if the weather hasn't changed much it's still been ~96-99 at 8pm the past week.
22:13 <@Mirage> That's Drum Corps International, btw
22:26 < Evilpig_> I read that thing about the pregnant woman in the HOV lane and I fully back that one.  she said she's gonna keep fighting it and if they're giving fetuses rights like people it should matter that it isn't in another seat.  two vehicle occupants
22:27 < Evilpig_> if she and the kid were killed in a wreck they'd count that thing as another person and set up a second manslaughter charge
22:32 <@Dagmar> That's true.  They're going to have to reconcile that in the law, and better they do that now than when it's going to be something even more serious.
