06:39 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
07:02  * aestetix hugs Dolemite 
07:02 < aestetix> Dolemite: have you ever been to a Circus?
07:03 <@Dolemite> Does Cirque du Soleil count?
07:03 < aestetix> I guess
07:03 < aestetix> But I mean what about the raw and gritty carnie stuff
07:03 <@Dolemite> How about the Jim Rose Circus?
07:03 < aestetix> what is that
07:04 <@Dolemite> Google it
07:04 <@Dolemite> That's as raw and gritty as it gets
07:04 < aestetix> fair enough
07:04 < aestetix> what is your favorite part of the circus
07:04 < aestetix> monkeys? elephants? clowns?
07:14 <@Mirage> I think the writers for Ghosts have been having entirely too much fun working out how to work in the phrase 'sucked off' into dialogue
07:20 <@Dolemite> aestetix: Aerial acrobatics
07:21 < aestetix> ok maybe one of you can explain to me... what is the appeal of this resale market of video games and other collectibles, in the original box unsealed
07:21 < aestetix> why are they so valuable
07:22 <@Dolemite> As a former comic book collector, I can tell you that it's not the content itself that is so valuable, it's a combination of the scarcity of the item, the cultural impact, and a sentimental value
07:23 <@Dolemite> For instance, I used to collect a lot of WWII era Patriotic Hero comic books, especially ones where there was a Nazi getting punched on the front cover
07:25 < aestetix> ok see I can understand why you would collect that
07:26 <@Dolemite> I also have a first printing of Seduction of the Innocent on a bookshelf somewhere
07:26 < aestetix> ok so it's a bunch of adult man children who want to pretend they are kids again

07:26 <@Dolemite> aestetix: Maybe.  What about people who collect jewelry?
07:27 < aestetix> Do people collect jewelry to relive their childhood?
07:27 <@Dolemite> Nope
07:27 <@Dolemite> And a lot of jewelry gains value beyond that of the actual components
07:28 < aestetix> oh like the diamond scam
07:28 < aestetix> I thought that was just because women like to wear them to look pretty and attract attention
07:29 <@Dolemite> Well, time to go to my annual physical.  I will actually have 100% of my "Rally Rewards" done this week for my insurance discount.
07:54 < Evilpig> I think my annual is scheduled for nex tmonth
07:55 < Evilpig> Mirage: but you're laughing at it right?
07:56 <@Mirage> Oh, yeah..
08:58 < Evilpig> god damn hipaa
08:59 < Evilpig> I can't get a copy of the records from ash and i's marriage counseling because she won't consent to the records release
08:59 < Evilpig> she wont' consent because in there it was discussed that she was jealous of sabrina and using that as a reason to not make good decisions related to sabrina
09:12 <@Dolemite> You can subpoena it?
09:17 < Evilpig> going to ask the lawyer that 
09:18 < Evilpig> going to email him an update on the records collection this morning and put that in there
09:27 <@Mirage> Dunno why, but to me this is the most brutal of the Lincoln Project ads yet: https://youtu.be/eTSksdsFaok

10:27 < Synx_> Anybody like psych/stoner rock, this band will melt your mind... King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, all their albums are wildly different but i suggest 'I'm in your mind fuzz' to start
11:59 < Synx_> what would you rather have in your firewall/router appliance... dual sfp+ for 10gbe or quad 2.5gbe
12:00 < Synx_> me personally i think dual sfp+ for the flexibility
12:08 < Evilpig> me personally i'd be fine with the 2.5's but my uplink is ethernet
12:23 < Synx_> i should mention dual sfp+ is cheaper
12:28 <@Dagmar> I would be doing dual SFP+ in pretty much every case, now that the damn things don't require a $200-$300 GBIC
12:29 <@Mirage> Synx_: Mine only has SFP, I wish it was SFP+.  Since all my vlans route through it, it'd probably improve vlan<->vlan traffic.  Two would be nice, but I've just been running the one internal fibre for a long time.  Uplink only needs to be 1GbE until/unless someone drops fiber-to-the-house here and offers something faster than gig
13:14 <@Dagmar> I would be happy if even AT&T would route some fiber into our neighborhood
13:14 <@Dagmar> I'm about to let Comcast actually install hardware in my house
13:15 <@Dagmar> Surely someone will bring fiber in here before the 2-year contract period is up
13:15 <@Dagmar> ...otherwise it's going to stop being $123/month and become $220/month
14:52 <@Dolemite> aestetix: OMG, I would have done the Batman Slap on this woman.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At_R8kMtiHU

14:52 < aestetix> Dolemite: you know I have never seen a karen in the wild
14:52 < aestetix> The karen phenomenon happened after I left the US
14:55 <@Dolemite> They've existed for decades.  You just never had to deal with one.
14:58 < Synx_> thanks Mirage, i've got this horrible idea to take a micro small form factor pc that can accept one pcie card and sell them on ebay as firewall appliances
15:17 <@Dagmar> You won't be able to get them cheap enough to compete with "appliances" which are brutally undernourished

15:18 <@Dagmar> ...but you could definitely excite some enthusiasts if you could show some tests of the things getting full gigglebit throughput running Tomato or some other free firewalling thing
15:18 <@Dagmar> Just score some Intel 4-port cards

17:04 < Synx_> the lenovo m720q came in just now, its lovely, they said no ssd but its got a 128G ssd perfect for opnsense, this thing even has its own tiny internal speaker
17:35 < Synx_> also with sfp+ there are these guys if you want to just stick with cat6 https://www.fs.com/products/11773.html

20:35 <@Mirage> Picked up the mother-in-law's car from Nissan today.  Apparently the estimates for the stuff that I authorized didn't include the parts required...so what should have been ~750 was just shy of 1k
