[12:08:38] <Bytram> it's a work day and I'd much rather just crawl back to bed

[12:21:23] <paulej72> WooHoo looks like spring temps
[12:21:56] <AndyTheAbsurd> boru: you around, man?
[12:23:13] <boru> Partially. What's the read?
[12:23:49] <AndyTheAbsurd> just ran into this Reddit thread https://www.reddit.com and thought I'd check how your work on getting Pale Moon on BSD ready was going.
[12:23:56] <exec> └─ 13moving away from 'firefox' because pulseaudio : freebsd
[12:24:39] <boru> I though the Rust concern with firefox would be of more worry to FreeBSD users.
[12:24:54] <boru> Given that there isn't official support for the Rust compiler on FreeBSD (to my knowledge)
[12:25:03] <AndyTheAbsurd> well, if we can get them to move to Pale Moon... :)
[12:25:22] <boru> And that firefox are probably going to mainline the Rust components in the next release, or at least Soon™
[12:25:25] <boru> Mozilla, rather.
[12:25:26] <boru> Heh, indeed.
[12:26:08] <boru> If I could secure a commit flag to the ports tree, I'd probably port more work into it, but so far, it's just hacking around locally.
[12:26:22] <boru> Err, put more work, rather.
[12:26:30] <boru> Perhaps this is how I'll spend my Sunday.
[12:27:17] <boru> I might put together a new build rig for poudriere testing.
[12:29:01] <boru> 27.2.1 is stable at the moment, right?
[12:29:06] <AndyTheAbsurd> yup
[12:29:11] * boru nods.
[12:31:00] <Bytram> afk - break
[12:31:25] <boru> I'll take further discussion to #palemoon
[13:38:31] <boru> AndyTheAbsurd; heh, audio works out of the box in 27.2.1. I guess I can focus on XPI parsing, now.
[13:39:11] <boru> I've forked into a git repo on bit bucket to make patch generation easier.
[13:42:08] <Bytram> time to head to work... still feel like crap, but just have to get started and see if I can make it through the day.
[13:42:12] <Bytram> hope everyone here has a great day!
[13:42:14] <Bytram> laters
[13:46:37] <cmn32480> ~gday TheMightyBuzzard
[13:46:38] * exec brazenly sets a bathtub of sum yun gai by TheMightyBuzzard
[13:49:23] * cmn32480 stumbles in while waiting for coffee to brew
[13:58:28] <paulej72> ~gday cmn32480
[13:58:29] * exec analiciously duplicates a thingy of buttsecks for cmn32480
[13:58:50] <cmn32480> ~gday paulej72
[13:58:51] * exec sardonically poops a vial of vespene gas for paulej72
[13:58:58] <cmn32480> how goes this lazy Sunday?
[13:59:22] <paulej72> not bad, doing my laundry and writing some code
[14:00:30] <cmn32480> sounds reasonable
[14:00:37] <paulej72> what are you up to
[14:00:47] <cmn32480> I'm doing expenses and sorting throuhg the mail from the last 2 weeks that I have missed
[14:01:12] <paulej72> yeah I need to do my taxes
[14:01:29] <cmn32480> done, returned and spent
[14:01:51] <cmn32480> this woudl be all the expense money for the 2 week trip in Texas
[14:02:01] <paulej72> spending all of my free time coding on SN
[14:02:15] <paulej72> $$$$$$
[14:02:41] <cmn32480> in the end, I think it'll be about a $6000 expense check
[14:02:54] <cmn32480> perhaps more
[14:03:00] <paulej72> getting double points for that
[14:03:07] <cmn32480> yes
[14:03:17] <paulej72> proper way to do it
[14:03:33] <cmn32480> particularly with the airline
[14:03:56] * cmn32480 goes to see if his folio from the hotel is up on Hilton's site yet
[14:04:34] <cmn32480> hotel was about $1800....
[14:05:08] <cmn32480> but the way I booked it (via their app) I shoudl be getting an extra 2000 points per night
[14:05:09] <paulej72> I hope it came with "maid service" at that price :)
[14:05:21] <cmn32480> not the kinky kind
[14:05:57] <cmn32480> aww...
[14:06:06] <cmn32480> bill is up.. point totals are still pending
[14:06:14] <cmn32480> this is gonna be a big one
[14:06:37] <cmn32480> the extra on it go like this:
[14:06:44] <cmn32480> 2k points extra per night
[14:06:49] <cmn32480> Base points
[14:06:56] <cmn32480> 2x base points
[14:06:58] <paulej72> they don't put up the points until they are sure you will not return the 2 week stay
[14:07:08] <cmn32480> 50% bonus on base points
[14:07:20] <cmn32480> and the 50% diamond VIP bonus
[14:07:29] <cmn32480> lol
[14:07:43] <cmn32480> I think they enlisted a Cray to calculate them
[14:08:14] <cmn32480> so it ought to be 3x Base points + 20k
[14:09:14] <cmn32480> should be 2500 per night roughly....
[14:09:24] * cmn32480 does maths....
[14:09:54] <cmn32480> 95000 points... roughly
[14:10:25] <cmn32480> that is roughly 3 nights free
[14:10:52] <paulej72> not bad
[14:11:04] <cmn32480> yeah
[14:11:17] <cmn32480> that'll put my at about 750k points in the bank
[14:14:08] <paulej72> biggest one I did was buy a refrigerator for the lab. Recently they have made it harder to do reimbursements at work. If you do a lot they want to to get a business visa

[14:15:25] <cmn32480> my company thinks it is a perk of the job to be able to get the miles/points/cash back on your personal credit card
[14:15:35] <cmn32480> especially for those of us that travel
[14:15:45] <paulej72> One of the reasons they cracked down is they did not want to pay sales tax as we are tax exempt
[14:15:51] <cmn32480> oooooo
[14:16:04] <cmn32480> I forgot... you are a .edu
[14:16:24] <paulej72> our visa card have our tax id printed on them
[14:16:48] * cmn32480 passes pj a sharpie
[14:18:56] <cmn32480> God Bless the bugger who invented OCR receipt scanners
[14:20:14] <cmn32480> dear god.. I hit Dunbkin Donuts a lot while I was gone....
[14:21:56] <paulej72> :)
[14:22:26] * cmn32480 giggles at the parking receipt from the airport... $132
[14:22:49] <paulej72> was that long term parking
[14:22:59] <cmn32480> nope
[14:23:04] <cmn32480> daily garage
[14:23:11] <cmn32480> we were getting snow the day I left...
[14:23:12] <paulej72> ok that is not bad then
[14:23:34] <cmn32480> I didn't wanna get into a cold snap and have to dig my car out of long term at 11pm when I got back
[14:23:52] <cmn32480> after the snow had been turning to ice for 10 days....
[14:24:03] <paulej72> sure that is valid excuse
[14:24:13] <cmn32480> customer won't care.
[14:24:36] <paulej72> oh yeah, you get to bill that to the customer
[14:24:44] <cmn32480> they will look at it as "He's under budget for what he expected the expenses to be on the quote - PAY HIM"
[14:25:15] <paulej72> Scotty bill padding?
[14:25:25] <paulej72> quote i mean
[14:26:25] <cmn32480> lol
[14:26:41] <cmn32480> only thing I wish we did was a per diem...
[14:26:58] <cmn32480> management has opted not to go that route
