07:05 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
07:26 < Evilpig> god damnit.  it's 36 degrees out and the wind pulled the cover up off the hood last night.  I need to put on pants and all that mess to go fix the cover
07:26 <@Dolemite> Or not
07:26 <@Dolemite> The pants part, that is
07:26 < Evilpig> too cold to just wear shorts
07:27 <@Dolemite> But definitely shoes.   Shoes, tighty whiteys, and a t-shirt.
07:27 < Evilpig> I do have some wind straps to help keep the cover down that I can put on as well.

14:25 < Evilpig> that's teh second call today from someone in KY calling me back... from calls I didn't make.  so some scammer is spoofing my number
14:58 <@opticron> You must have really pissed one off
14:59 <@opticron> didn't the FCC make some claims that the days of spoofing were finally done?
15:59 <@Dagmar> No.
15:59 <@Dagmar> THey have begun fining companies heavily and are now talking about being pretty nasty and just demanding certain of those companies be cut the fuck off completely
16:01 <@Dagmar> ...because they've got like three holdouts who are claiming they can't stop the fraudsters and it would be too much of a burden blah blah blah and if the FTC were naming names I would be showing up on someone's fucking doorstep because I'm so tired of getting between 3-10 calls from these shitstains EVERY GODDAMN DAY I'm about to change my voicemail OGM to contain the bellcore 'no longer in service' tones

16:02 <@Dagmar> I didn't wanna deal with bad audio fidelity so I just used Audacity as a signal generator
16:04 <@Dagmar> It's _clearly_ a multi-disciplinary fraudster making the bulk of the fuckin' calls because of the types of cons I keep getting presented with
16:04 <@Dagmar> Medicare, student loans, internet connectivity discounts, and two others
16:58 < Evilpig> my nephew just realized why I sent him a router, access point and switch all that time back.  him and his girlfriend jut moved into a new apartment and he was complaining that the app from comcast wasn't letting him pick an internet password but everything was set up supposedly
16:59 < Evilpig> I told him to stop using their app and use his existing wifi and low and behold everything just worked
16:59 < Evilpig> also instructed him to buy a cheap surfboard from their approved list and not pay them rent, he did just that like a good kid
17:00 < Evilpig> the vpn to him established right away and I should start seeing bandwidth logged.  https://blueboy.wilpig.org/mrtg/ethan.html

22:43 <@Dagmar> I think it's time companies who do marketing have a formal position declared to hire and retain at least one evil person
22:43 <@Dagmar> Someone who could stop this

22:44 <@Dagmar> THat's right, they're selling blue waffles.
22:45 <@Dagmar> Oh thank god that was apparently from 2020, but still.
22:45 <@Dagmar> COmpanies need to have at least _one_ person on staff who can say, "Hold up...  Ya'll are just going to have to trust me, but this is a really bad idea."
