03:11 <@aestetix> oh wow
03:11 <@aestetix> https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2023/aug/28/burning-man-protest-climate-change-environment
03:12 < PigBot> Burning Man attendees roadblocked by climate activists: ‘They have a privileged mindset’ | Burning Man festival | The Guardian (at www.theguardian.com) https://tinyurl.com/23s973x8
03:12 <@aestetix> that's fucking hilarious
06:16 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
06:30 <@Dolemite> heh, yeah, burning man should have banned generators completely...  that would keep the tourists away from it
07:24 <@aestetix> I mean
07:24 <@aestetix> I think Burning Man needs to end
07:24 <@aestetix> The whole idea was to be a temporary city
07:24 <@aestetix> but nothing about it is temporary anymore
07:24 <@Dolemite> true that
07:25 <@aestetix> I mean you can see the outline on the playa of where burning man is held.... from space
07:25 <@Dolemite> it's also not really art focused at this point
07:25 <@aestetix> what is it focused on?
07:25 <@aestetix> being a big rave party or something?
07:25 <@Dolemite> Yeah
07:26 <@Dolemite> I knew a guy that added me into his FB group for burning man and I cyber stalked it for a few years...  at least their campsite (one of the originals) was about a straight up Bacchanalia
07:26 <@aestetix> basically, IMHO, they should have ended the festival when larry harvey died
07:26 <@Dolemite> They brought in cases of wine and condoms
07:26 <@aestetix> but now there is too much money and power in it
07:27 <@aestetix> which is the height of irony
07:27 <@Dolemite> Well, yeah, there's no way that an actual starving artist could afford to even attend it
07:28 <@aestetix> let's see
07:28 <@aestetix> https://tickets.burningman.org/
07:28 < PigBot> Burning Man Tickets | Official source for information about Black Rock City tickets. (at tickets.burningman.org) https://tinyurl.com/2cbc5r8f
07:29 <@aestetix> it looks like they lowered the ticket price a bit, but raised the other prices
07:29 <@aestetix> so now you have to pay $150 to bring your car there
07:29 <@aestetix> oh "$150 plus applicable fees"
07:30 <@Dolemite> As I understand it, indidivual tickets are mostly a thing of the past.  You have to apply as a group and if you're not a legacy group, you have to tell a story in order to get an assignment.
07:30 <@aestetix> huh
07:30 <@aestetix> I haven't been in over a decade, sounds like it has changed a lot
07:31 <@Dolemite> It may be that only the initial sales require groups.   I don't know for sure.
07:31 <@Dolemite> But yeah, $575 to get in and $150 to not bum a ride from someone else.
07:32 <@Dolemite> Plus you have to bring your own food and shelter
07:32 <@Dolemite> Looks like the Stewards Sale is what the groups get
07:35 <@aestetix> ok I just verified
07:35 <@aestetix> the first year I went (2009) my ticket cost $280
07:35 <@aestetix> which was a lot at the time
07:36 <@aestetix> but yeah.... $150 for a car.... and you're not getting there without a car
07:42 <@Dolemite> Jesus H. Christ, FB is drunk.   It keeps suggesting pages to me that are deep inside the cult of the clown.
07:42 <@Dolemite> I need more coffee for this shit

14:56 <@Dolemite> TO HELL, I SAY!
14:56 <@Dagmar> I've been trying to troubleshoot why there's white in my cacti graphs when it _should_ have a solid background
14:57 <@Dagmar> I thought I'd somehow fucked up my CDEFs
14:57 <@Dagmar> ...but no, it's very obviously drawing them as boxes with a white 1px outline
15:00 <@Dagmar> It's more obvious when the graph is showing a very narrow window of time and every bit of it is like 10px wide
15:00 <@Dagmar> ...except for those damn areas
15:01 <@Dagmar> Well that's definitely goddamn annoying
