[00:42:34] <chromas> probably won't be able to keep it up for more than five minutes
[00:42:56] <RandomFactor> so you think it will peter out early?
[00:44:39] <RandomFactor> To bad. It's better when they run long.
[00:44:59] <chromas> Yes, but it's just as well, the semenar will probably be short-staffed
[00:45:21] <RandomFactor> But this is submittus interruptus. Back to banging one out.

[12:37:53] <AndyTheAbsurd> Won't that be even worse than 5GHz at going through walls?
[12:38:41] <chromas> yes
[12:39:07] <chromas> They should start lowering the frequencies of IrDA until it converges with the wifi band
[12:39:18] * AndyTheAbsurd makes plans to NOT upgrade
[12:40:15] <AndyTheAbsurd> The house I live in is concrete block construction and it's been added on to a couple of times. I've got a 5GHz AP but there's spots in the house where I can't connect to it, because there's too much concrete in the way.
[12:40:38] <chromas> We're also concrete, but only the outside walls
[12:41:53] <AndyTheAbsurd> You can tell where the additions start because the walls are nine or ten inches thick.
[12:42:19] <chromas> Extra insulation to block out the noise from your sex dungeon
[12:43:09] <AndyTheAbsurd> If only! Florida, so no basement, so no space for a sex dungeon.
[12:43:38] <chromas> That's why it has to be in one of those pre-expansion inner rooms with the thicc walls
[12:46:31] <AndyTheAbsurd> The long-term plan is to get out of that house, and eventually probably out of Florida altogether.
[12:46:46] <chromas> Did htop always show Intel's hyperthreading units or whatever as independent cores?
[12:48:11] <chromas> ♫Get out of your house...get into my car♫
[12:48:16] <AndyTheAbsurd> But that involves (a) ridding myself of a lot of my deceased wife's shit, (b) outliving or rehoming the cats, (c) some repairs and upgrades to the house, and (d) leaving a bunch of friends behind; so it's not going to be a quick process.
[12:49:21] <AndyTheAbsurd> Heh...part of the long-term plan is "reduce what I own to the point where everything that isn't furniture or a vehicle can be moved in a single trip in mid-sized sedan".
[12:49:43] <chromas> Sounds like work. Easier to just rent a place the orgies instead of keeping your own dungeon
[12:50:18] <AndyTheAbsurd> (For purposes of this goal, bicycles will be considered vehicles, as they are hard to fit in mid-sized sedans.)
[12:50:54] <chromas> True but you can probably strap it on the roof
[12:51:02] <chromas> unless you have too many other strap-ons
