13:32 < Evilpig> I saw that headline about a domain going to go dark and didn't look at it, didn't even occur to me it could be virgil
14:31 <@Dagmar> That depends on how much money you're willing to spend
14:33 <@Dagmar> GoDaddy is the registrar, so you can rest assured that domain hostage takers are already ponying up money to snatch it
14:52 < aestetix> yeah I fucking hate godaddy
17:10 < Evilpig> ROFL.  the last line for only murders in the building season 2. "You've got to be fucking kidding me."   HAHAHAHA
18:04 < aestetix> is phreaknic happening this year?
18:04 < aestetix> or is it unknown due to covid?
18:11 <@Dagmar> With two months' notice?  Nope.
18:11 <@Dagmar> Next year we're almost certain to be having it, unless monkey pox and polio become airborne pandemics
18:12 <@Dagmar> I will make certain to bring that all up again on Friday
18:12 < Evilpig> took sabrina's phone up to ubreakifix for a pixel 3 battery replacement, I saw online that it should be $89 and figured the parts would be $50 so $40 for them to deal with the glue was worth it
18:12 <@Dagmar> Hahah
18:12 <@Dagmar> You made the right choice
18:13 <@Dagmar> My battery started swelling a tiny bit which separated the NFC reader, and I just had them replace that
18:13 <@Dagmar> I do not regret it for an instant
18:13 <@Dagmar> These things are fucking awful to try to get apart without a precision heat gun and sucker cup calipers now
18:13 < Evilpig> went up there with an appointment and chick was dealing with a previous customer trying to help him leave them a positive review, handed me off to the trainee who couldn't figure out where my appointment was or what the cost was supposed to be.  I said it should be about $50 in parts and $30ish for labor and she said "battery replacements are a flat $99 in labor"
18:14 <@Dagmar> Yeah, very worth it at $100
18:14 < Evilpig> I snatched the phone back said "oh hell no, that's a 30 minute job with a heat gun and I was willing to pay you to save me the two hours without one"
18:14 < Evilpig> that was $99 just for the labor, no parts
18:14 < Evilpig> I walked out got in the truck and left her a shit review
18:14 <@Dagmar> Hrm... I guess the price went up.  Mine was just $100 and taxes
18:15 < Evilpig> got on ifixit, $45 for the parts and I somehow had a $20 paypal credit/coupon so it's costing me $25 and probably two hours of my time
18:15 <@Dagmar> Still, they did a great job and I wasn't talking to a trained monkey
18:15 <@Dagmar> Oh you haven't done it yet?
18:15 <@Dagmar> heheheh
18:16 < Evilpig> she countered my shit review with smack talk about her helping a previous customer and me talking random stuff and leaving and that the price would be $89.99 total
18:16 < Evilpig> but at this point fuck her, I've got the parts and for $25 i'll just be annoyed at the glue

18:17 <@Dagmar> You might want to go ahead and order an adhesive membrane.  They're under $10
18:17 <@Dagmar> er 20

18:18 <@Dagmar> Then you can just clean all the old seal out with rubbing alcohol and put a nice clean new one back in and phone will still be realiably water-resistant

18:18 <@Dagmar> Resealing a phone with the same adhesive that was in there is generalyl pretty iffy
18:18 < Evilpig> it has it all
18:18 <@Dagmar> Oh sweet
18:18 <@Dagmar> It'll still be a motherfucker the first time
18:18 < Evilpig> yeah, like for $45 it's not a bad price for the parts.
18:19 < Evilpig> it will be a fuckin' bitch without a heatgun
18:19 < Evilpig> they're sending their beanbag thing that you heat up to loosen the glue so it won't be like going in cold
18:20 <@Dagmar> Yeah Iv'e seen that done a few times and it's irritatingly effective
18:20 < Evilpig> it's all good.  I would have preferred to have them do it, but fuck her
18:21 <@Dagmar> reasonable
18:23 < Evilpig> as long as I don't shatter the back glass.  it'll be fine.  https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Google+Pixel+3+Battery+Replacement/124702
