06:11 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!

07:45 < Evilpig> balls
07:50 <@Dolemite> we have no interest in seeing your balls
07:51 <@Dolemite> I'm sure they're still sweaty from climbing in the attic this weekend
07:51 < Evilpig> that wasn't even attic, technically.  It's a complete unfinished second floor
07:52 < Evilpig> they're sweaty right now because I ust finished walking up the hill from getting dropped off by uber from the ford dealer
07:52 < Evilpig> if the driver isn't a douchebag i'll ask them to drop me off at the bottom of the hill so they can avoid tranversing the half dozen speedbumps it takes to get to me.
07:53 < Evilpig> If they don't, i'll let it ride all the way and then they can get jostled the half dozen on the way back out too
08:14 <@Dolemite> w00t.   Rez Dogs starts back on Wednesday.  Too bad it's the last season.
08:38 <@Dolemite> Ugh.   Waiting on roofers to get here to do some repair work, so I'm having to answer unfamiliar numbers...  the spammers are out in force today
08:40 < Evilpig> Dagmar: are your ears burning this morning?
08:47  * Dolemite holds candles under Dagmar's ears
08:55 <@Dolemite> Evilpig: You'll like this.   I was nearly kicked out of Regal Cinemas yesterday, but I held myself back.   Was waiting for MI: Dead Reckoning to start and a preview for Dune Part 2 came on.   Some dude a couple of rows behind me (who has no concept of whispering) says, "The first part was really good, but I don't know why they're coming out with Part 2 now.   The first one was 30 years ago."
08:55 <@Dolemite> I wanted to stand up and beat some sense into him
08:55 <@Dagmar> Why would that be?
08:58 <@Mirage> Paid my homeowner's ins yesterday.. their system now only supports bank transfer or paypal.  Was a bit weird paying for ins via paypal.
08:59 <@Dolemite> Did they charge you extra for using PayPal or did they eat the fees?
08:59 <@Mirage> Either they ate them or they were already built in to the billing.
09:01 <@Mirage> I was more concerned with whether the liability got lumped in when I went to pay or if I needed to go back and pay it separately.   
09:06 < Evilpig> Dagmar: girl from my team was asking about palo alto contacts in one of the discords you're in and she ran across you who asked her if she knew pig
09:19 <@Dagmar> Yep.  The problem sounded pretty damn specific and familiar
09:28  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
09:51 <@Mirage> Bah, the magnetic usb-c cables I got from amazon are charging only.  Granted that's all I needed them for on the specific use I bought them for, but I'm disappointed I can't use them for something else too.
09:53 <@Mirage> I got that OLED 'poster' on Fri and it came with one magnetic c->c cable for connecting the battery pack to the controller, but it wasn't overly useful given that you were supposed to use that same cable for charging also and would have to remove the magnetic tip each time you need to charge.
09:57 <@Mirage> Where's sdodson when you actually want/need him?   Anyone seen any offerings for the RH300 (Rapid Track RHCE w/ Exam) in a while?  I emailed RH asking about it, but haven't gotten a response beyond "I'll look into it"
10:04 <@Dolemite> he hasn't been on IRC in a very long time
10:10 < Evilpig> Mirage: I got some of those too that I like and are working for data and charging
10:11 < Evilpig> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BMZZQVTS/  I have these in both the straight and 140w right angle variants
10:11 < PigBot> Amazon.com (at www.amazon.com) https://tinyurl.com/27coc2d4
10:11 < Evilpig> the right angle ones are REALLY nice for the laptops
10:11 < Evilpig> and I have one in the car too for the phone
10:12 < Evilpig> I've got them on my phone, the switch, both laptops, and ashley's phone.  the magnet is strong, the data has worked fine as well
10:12 < Evilpig> I've even got monitors running off he laptop connections so it's moving a good bit of data
10:23 <@Dolemite> OMG, my nephew runs Plex but had no clue what Sonarr and Radarr were.
10:32 < Evilpig> he's about to burn some bandwidth
10:32 <@Dolemite> not really
10:32 <@Dolemite> His response:  "Oh we'd have to actually be in the know for new tv / movies"
10:32 <@Dolemite> We're sooooo behind and not caring about that in reality
10:33 <@opticron> I mean...I don't run them, but I know what they are
10:33 <@Mirage> Evilpig: Yeah, I bought almost those exact same adapters to use on my work laptop to avoid tension on the docking/charging port
10:34 < Evilpig> and yours are data only?  or you got a different set that is
10:34 < Evilpig> errr power only
10:34 <@Mirage> No, the CABLES w/ magnet ends (well, one end) are charging only.  Those adapters work just fine
10:35 < Evilpig> gotcha
10:38 <@Mirage> This style is what I intended to get: https://www.amazon.com/Melonboy-Magnetic-Charging-Cable-Data-i-Products/dp/B0C818P81T
10:38 < PigBot> Amazon.com (at www.amazon.com) https://tinyurl.com/2dnuzuea
10:40 <@Mirage> But I needed a short cable, and didn't notice that when I selected the shorter one by those same guys that it was charging only.
10:48 <@Dagmar> Be careful with those because apparently the connector *can* short circuit on the magnet
10:49 <@Mirage> The way these tip are designed to seat, I don't think that will be a problem.
12:23 <@Dolemite> Damn!   Pee Wee Herman died.
12:43 <@Mirage> Wife just called to tell me that
12:44 <@Mirage> Now I have an urge to watch Mystery Men and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
13:46 < Evilpig> no shit?

14:19 < Evilpig> Mirage: i'm replacing swedish dicks S01E07 now because the one I had didn't have the correct subtitle track
14:19 < Evilpig> betting that S02E08 is the same story so i'm replacing it as well
14:31 <@Dagmar> Mirage: I'd try to test that theory, because I thought the same thing but somehow the stepson managed to short one out in less than a week
15:27 < dasunt> Hell is having a technically competent and foolish coworker.
15:28  * dasunt starts profiling code.
15:53 <@Mirage> dasunt: so working w/ NL?
16:16 < dasunt> I think every time we run an automation, we're doing something really horrible to update things.
16:16 < dasunt> I hope I'm wrong.
16:16 < dasunt> Fuck it, not going to look.
16:17 < Evilpig> lol
16:17  * Evilpig flaps his arms and walks around dasunt in circles clucking
17:07 <@Mirage> Another one?  https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/burning-car-carrier-off-dutch-coast-being-towed-away-shipping-lanes-2023-07-31/

17:10 <@Mirage> They mention EV's in the article, but of course nothing on the cause of the fire.  I don't recall if they ever published anything regarding the cause of that last one, but I'd hazard a guess at EV's for both of them. 
21:52 <@Mirage> Dagmar: got my Aug 2nd Closed Beta invite
