06:12 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
07:06 < dasunt> G'morning.
07:08 <@Dolemite> Evilpig: Have you watched that Apple series, Invasion?
07:08 < Evilpig> negative
07:09 <@Dolemite> I tried last night, but just couldn't get into it.  Subtitles (because they kept changing geographic regions constantly and spoke the native language) became a bit cumbersome for me.
07:39  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
08:11 < Evilpig> there have been a couple of shows lately that iv'e seen that have done that
08:43 < dasunt> I'm not sure why Florida is considered 'low taxes' for the average person.
08:43 < dasunt> Guess income tax is the only tax they are counting.
08:43 <@Dolemite> No income tax
08:43 <@Dolemite> and no grocery tax
08:43 < dasunt> No income tax benefits the wealthy more than the rest of us.
08:44 <@Dolemite> If you live in a metro area and take public transit, it's a great deal since they fund a lot of their roads through tolls
08:44 <@Dolemite> dasunt: Not as a percentage
08:44 <@Dolemite> But then again, that's mostly in regards to federal
08:45 < dasunt> What do you mean, not as a percentage?
08:46 <@Dolemite> Wealthier individuals have lower income from salary and more from investments.  They also have the means to exercise more loopholes.  Overall their tax burden is a lower percentage of income than middle class.
08:47 < dasunt> Yup.
08:47 < dasunt> Although even for myself, now, I'd benefit a bit from Florida.  It was different when I was poor, since I needed to spend everything I got.  Now, a decent chunk of it goes into investments.
08:48 <@Dolemite> All that being said, the natural disasters in FL over the past 5 years have rockets the costs of housing, so I'd say it's more than offsetting the tax benefits for the 99%.
08:48 <@Dolemite> Insurance is extremely difficult to get for housing these days
08:49 < dasunt> I've heard that.  Meanwhile, I think we're paying around $100 for home + umbrella of $1M
08:49 < dasunt> $100/mo.  Plus all the motor vehicles.
08:50 <@Dolemite> My parents' $120K house in FL costs more to insure than their $250K house in TN
08:50 <@Dolemite> The one in FL is a 45 minute drive from the coast
08:51 <@Dolemite> They are true Bevery Hillbillies.   Smoky Mountains TN to Beverly Hills, FL each winter.
08:52 < dasunt> For me, living in Minnesota, and having lived in TN, I don't find TN winters to be bad at all.
08:52 < dasunt> Ha, dark humor:  https://twitter.com/JimFraserUk/status/1678092253368049664
08:52 < PigBot> No Title (at twitter.com) https://tinyurl.com/27278ukw
08:53 <@Dolemite> No, when we were in the UP a couple of weeks ago, my wife and I actually talked about how we'd love to be in TN for the winter and MI for the summer
09:00 < aestetix> hmm
09:00 < aestetix> Does delaware have income tax?
09:00 < aestetix> I know they don't do sales tax
09:10 < dasunt> UP is great.  
09:37 <@Mirage> Thanks to the housing $$ jumping so much and all the hail storms in the past couple years my home ins this year jumped from just under $2100 to bit over $3500.  
09:52 < dasunt> We've never done a claim, but our deductable is $1k or something like that, so it's usually cheaper to fix the minor stuff.
10:27 <@Dolemite> Ugh.   In Hashicorp Vault training and there's one guy that keeps asking technical questions that will obviously be handled during the lab portion...  but we're still in the intro section.   Has easily extended it by 20 minutes already.
10:28 <@Dolemite> I'll bet he is on some of dasunt's project teams
10:28 < Evilpig> yay!
10:34 <@Mirage> "My Adventures with Superman" is definitely putting a different spin on things
10:35 < dasunt> Dolemite: You overestimate the level of fuckwittery here.
10:36 < Evilpig> indeed, but it isn't bad yet
10:36 < dasunt> If they are on one of my teams, they are likely asking how to do something with the absolute minimum level of understanding of what they are doing or how it works.
10:36 < dasunt> (Later, they'll blame the software for being shit because the system is unreliable for some strange reason)
10:38 < Evilpig> gonna turn on asteroid city at lunch I think
10:46 <@Dolemite> dasunt: This fuckwit is likely asking questions now so that he can mentally check out later.
10:48 < Evilpig> but he's paying for htem to answer rather than figure out for himself
10:49 <@Dolemite> His company is
10:50 <@Dolemite> I'm sure he's just trying to get answers to questions that he anticipates being asked during the interviews he has already lined up for a DevSecOps Admin position
10:59 < dasunt> Dolemite: Okay, that sounds like my team.
11:00 < dasunt> Oh, for the Kubernetes training I'm doing (the Udemy CKA course), which is overall pretty good, but there's an error pointed out on one of the videos, and it's a pretty big error, and they have yet to fix it.  That is annoying.
11:32 <@Dolemite> Well, fuck.  The last AMC theater in Knoxville has closed.   Nothing but Poopsi beverages, now.
11:35 < Evilpig> gross
11:35 <@Dolemite> Yeah, nothing but Regal here, now.  Of course, Regal is based here...

12:41 < PigBot> Palia | Official Beta Release Trailer - YouTube (at youtu.be) https://tinyurl.com/2c59v872
12:42 <@Mirage> The last alpha test was for load, so instead of just a select group they opened it up to all alpha testers and we certainly managed to break the fuck out of just about everything.
14:10 < Evilpig> Mirage: that's what alpha tests are for, right?
14:11 < Evilpig> do all the things they didn't expect you to do?
14:41 <@Mirage> Well, in the other ones it was "tell us what's broken".  In that last one it was "just break it all"
14:41 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@sprinkle.cloud] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
14:57 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@sprinkle.cloud] has joined #se2600
15:17 < Evilpig> I've got to decide here quickly pork chops or salmon
15:17 < Evilpig> this is the important question of the day
16:51 < dasunt> Salmon
17:12 < Evilpig> I thnk that's where I settled too.

17:12 < Evilpig> gotta go get this shit started
18:28 <@Dagmar> Yeah I got the mail about that one but I kinda figured work should take precedent over fuckin' around
18:33 < Evilpig> since when does work take priority?  that's crazy talk
19:59 <@Dagmar> Well, things tend to happen durig work hours
