05:56 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
05:56  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
06:15 < aestetix> so
06:15 < aestetix> this is kind of a delicate topic

06:15 < aestetix> but this scary video shows what happens when qanon goes too far

07:26 < Evilpig> Dolemite: I got an email from moviepass this morning, I assume you did as well?
07:26 <@Dolemite> I did.  I LOL'd.

07:27 < Evilpig> I've been watching trying to get a handle on how this new model will be sustainable and all I can figure is they're gambling that people won't use the "credits" and just pay and not use the system
07:28 < Evilpig> they also have it laid out in the terms that the number of credits per movie are subject to change at any notice and depending on time of day.
07:29 < Evilpig> I see that as the groundwork for a "surge" pricing model like uber, et al
07:29 < Evilpig> avatar is really popular it's +10 credits
07:33 <@Dolemite> Avatar is the only movie I've walking into a theater for since 2019, and even so, I only paid $5 for the ticket because I went on a Tuesday when Regal has their bargain days.
07:34 <@Dolemite> s/walking/walked
07:34 < Evilpig> I think we've done two
07:34 < Evilpig> I know jackass was one of them, but I was thinking there was another
07:35 <@Dolemite> Well when Regal switched to Pepsi they lost all of my concession stand business
07:35 < Evilpig> 100% same
07:35 <@Dolemite> At least there's an AMC just a couple of miles further than the Regal that I can go to...  as long as it stays around, at least
07:36 <@Dolemite> So if I'm paying regular ticket price, I'll choose AMC over Regal, now
07:42 < Evilpig> Ahh yes,  Smile and The Invitation too
07:42 < Evilpig> so I guess three movies this last year
08:32 < Evilpig> I like the sound of this show, but it's disney+ so it's likely going to be garbage.  https://thetvdb.com/series/extraordinary

11:48 < dasunt> Trying to help others with their code issues makes me question my sanity.
11:49 < dasunt> Apparently, it's a heterodox idea to simplify broken code down to the barest essentials and get that working first, then reintroduce complexity step by step.
11:55 < Evilpig> how else would you do it?
11:56 < Evilpig> that's the same approach to use when troubleshooting general computer part problems, or mechanical issues, etc,  get to a baseline and work forward
11:56 < dasunt> Evilpig: Change things at random, apparently.
11:57 < Evilpig> put those people in a literal minefield
11:58 < dasunt> I suggested that if there's a trouble making a connection with a web-based API, why not log what information it's actually sending.  
11:58 < dasunt> This idea is too radical.
11:59 < Evilpig> verify how something is connecting and what it's sending?  again, this sounds like the only thing you should do.
12:01 < dasunt> As I said, I question my sanity.
12:02 < dasunt> Maybe I should be asking them what troubleshooting steps they are wanting to do.
13:05 <@Dagmar> Make 'em read through packet dumps and unfiltered strace output
13:06 <@Dagmar> ...then they'll be more amenable to simplifying their code first
