--- Log opened Fri Sep 30 00:00:55 2022 07:43 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez! 08:43 < Evilpig> yay! a new season of "the floor is lava" lol 08:44 <@Dolemite> So I watched ep 1 of "The Rookie: Feds". Not impressed at all. 08:47 < Evilpig> same 08:47 < Evilpig> I knew they were going to copy the format but deviating from that to make her just break rules constantly, nope 08:48 <@Dolemite> I may give it one or two more episodes. 08:51 < Evilpig> bah! recent update to homeassistant broke my media logger. http://blueboy.wilpig.org/media.php 08:51 < PigBot> No Title (at blueboy.wilpig.org) https://tinyurl.com/2jfkg55u 09:00 <@Dagmar> I just had to warn Ben that should he suggest self-hosting Sharepoint that Brandon might take a swing at him 09:00 <@Dagmar> heh 09:23 < aestetix> any of you following the russia/ukraine drama? 09:23 < aestetix> not sure how much coverage it gets in the US 09:23 <@Dolemite> Hard to escape it 09:23 < aestetix> oh ok I didn't know if americans even care 09:23 <@Dagmar> Putin's a war-mongering sodomite. What more is there to know? 09:23 <@Dolemite> Oh it's definitely still front and center, though the hurricane has gotten shared centerpiece status the last few days 09:24 < aestetix> Dagmar: well, the latest update is going to really shift some things 09:24 <@Dolemite> His annexation of 4 provinces in Ukraine after the sham election? 09:24 < aestetix> By annexing parts of ukraine into russia, he'll consider any efforts of ukraine to get them back as an act of war 09:25 <@Dolemite> yes, that has been talking headed over the past couple of days 09:25 < aestetix> So if NATO does nothing, it will be Crimea all over again 09:26 < aestetix> Dolemite: one of my colleages is from Crimea and fled to Berlin after the annexation happened 09:26 < aestetix> He worked at a university, and suddenly many of his colleages were replaced by russian informants 09:26 <@Dagmar> aestetix: Except that no one is buying any of his bullshit. This was a war of aggression from day one. 09:27 < aestetix> And several other colleagues of mine are from Ukraine, mostly Kyiv 09:28 < aestetix> it's pretty horrifying hearing about what their families are going through 09:28 <@Dolemite> So given the very uneven ratio of casualties between Russian troops and Ukrainian (heavily in favor of Ukraine) and the fact that Putin is now having to conscript soldiers means he'll be putting even more untrained/unready people into the field of play... either a coup will happen in Russia, or we'll all end up in the midst of the unplanned sequel to War Games. 09:28 <@Dagmar> I'd like to see the good people of Russia go ahead and drag his war mongering ass out into the street and tear him into bloody chunks so everyone can get on with having a relatively radiation-free life 09:29 <@Dagmar> Because that fuckstick keeps talking aobut having nuclear options, which I think is a great way to get himself assassinated 09:29 < aestetix> Dolemite: well, it depends on whether China joins the game 09:29 <@Dolemite> China wants nothing of it 09:29 <@Dagmar> Like, oh so sorry you can't get your way but irradiating the rest of the planet is not an acceptable response 09:29 <@Dolemite> Xi has pretty much postured as such 09:29 <@Dagmar> Fuck him into itty bitty pieces 09:33 <@Dagmar> The only way Putin does *not* go down in history as a war-mongering slaver is if he takes over the entire world. 09:33 <@Dagmar> Think about that for a moment. 09:34 <@Dagmar> Not even Russia is capable of lying their way around basically _stealing_ thousands of people from the Ukraine and shipping them off to parts unknown 09:55 <@Dolemite> They did that a few years ago with Crimea 10:00 < aestetix> Dolemite: yep. The question will be, does anything happen to Putin after this 10:00 < aestetix> Exactly nothing happened after he took Crimea 10:24 <@Dagmar> Crimea didn't fight tooth and nail 10:24 <@Dagmar> It looks like the only way the Ukraine gets taken by Russia is after Russia has murdered everyone who lived there 10:25 <@Dagmar> Notable differences between the two is that the Ukraine _used_ to be a russian shithole, but actually made huge strides in becoming a modern democracy and a prosperous nation once they got our of hte Republic 10:25 <@Dagmar> Crimea was still pretty much a shithole 10:26 <@Dagmar> So, the Ukraine _knows_ what they'll be losing by allowing themselves to be taken back over 10:43 < Evilpig> got an interview set up with asurian for next week now as well 10:46 < Evilpig> ROFL so one of my former coworkers at vandy just accepted a position with red hat 10:47 < Evilpig> that 10:47 < Evilpig> that's two of the seniors gone in a week 10:47 < Evilpig> three to go 10:51 <@Dagmar> That's okay, Vanderbilt can just outsource everything to Amazon. It'll be _fine_ 10:51 <@Dagmar> Frankly they should have been very alarmed when the subject of "5-10 years from now" came up considering how few people _currently_ have been there that long 10:52 <@Dagmar> Like, there's no point in asking when it's obvious they only want to keep new-hires who do bad work for cheap 10:52 <@Dagmar> Everyone else gets driven out 10:53 <@Dagmar> Practically the only people who have been there for more than five years were the people who were named specifically in that expensive outside assessment 10:59 < Evilpig> I'm watching on from the wings, just laughing 11:02 <@eryc> the hurricane has started 11:02 <@Dagmar> I get the feeling that if you asked the people who've left, you'd find that 99% of them were doing just that 11:02 <@Dagmar> I know I was 11:03 <@Dagmar> Doin' my job and spectating the circus 11:06 <@eryc> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyhQLx6kFb8 11:06 < PigBot> 🔴LIVE - Hurricane Ian Coverage With Multiple Storm Chasers - Live Weather Channel... - YouTube (at www.youtube.com) https://tinyurl.com/2z9ltak3 12:00 < aestetix> Evilpig: does sdodson still work at redhat? 12:07 < Evilpig> as far as I know 12:15 <@Dolemite> yes 12:19 <@Dagmar> Damn this is annoying 12:20 <@Dagmar> I am getting nowhere trying to find a way to implement a firewall rule that blocks retransmission of ethernet multicast addresses on the firewall 12:20 <@Dagmar> I'm going to have to go with it being a bad idea all 'round to have anything responding to ARP WHO-HAS with such an address 12:22 <@Dagmar> The only thing i can find that might be a solution is to forcibly publish an entry with the actual mac address of one of the devices 12:22 <@Dagmar> ...which will probably break shit 12:26 <@Dagmar> RFC1812 says it shoudlnt' even be allowed 12:26 <@Dagmar> I'm just gonna have to give up on that for now 12:27 <@Dagmar> Gonna have to wait for the windows admins to revisit why they're responding to ARP with that 14:02 < Evilpig> well damn. add a funeral to next week's schedule too. sister just texted "it's happening" so my grandfather is finally passing 15:36 < NotLarry> Sorry --- Log closed Sat Oct 01 00:00:57 2022
