[00:06:27] <RandomFactor> Is a Dutch oven considered a pot or a kettle?
[00:06:38] <AzumaHazuki> pot
[00:08:43] <RandomFactor> I keep getting distracted by this cowboy cooking channel on youtube...

[06:48:16] <chromas> custom roms ftw
[06:52:24] <chromas> Just checked housemate's phone and it's there
[06:52:50] <chromas> Google COVID-19 alerts service installed without permission
[06:52:58] <chromas> (it's disabled though)

[07:48:47] <tedious> chromas: Wait you mean this stuff is real?
[07:50:41] <tedious> I thought that was just a troll.

[08:00:57] <chromas> I dunno about iPhones but this one Android phone has the covid alert service installed
[08:01:19] <chromas> It's part of the google stuff, so I assume it only appears if you have automatic updates turned on
[08:03:45] <chromas> It's supposed to alert you if you've been near someone marked with leprosy and it says it shares data "with the app" (Google I assume)
[08:07:42] <chromas> Looks like it's a service for other applications to use, so you still have to install some other tracker to use it (wink)
[08:38:58] <tedious> This is unbelievable. :(
[08:40:10] <tedious> So they installed this covid spyware shit on everybody's phones while most of the country was experiencing an "outage" with their phones?
[08:41:23] <chromas> Haven't heard of any outages besides in that thread
[08:41:43] <tedious> And 4-chan is telling the truth and driveby isn't a troll and now I need to make a tinfoil hat?
[08:42:03] <tedious> I heard something about it but I just blew it off.
[08:42:14] <chromas> Butt yeah, at least some phones have Google Spyware Unit 64368 installed
[08:42:41] <chromas> I think it's supposed to be for other trackers to use

[08:43:46] <chromas> So instead of countries rolling their own, they can take advantage of the spying experts :)
[08:44:44] <tedious> Ugh.
[08:45:01] <tedious> This sucks. :(
[08:46:03] <chromas> It's a little extra work but I've got my phone running without google services
[08:46:09] <chromas> (android is still google's of course)
[08:46:47] <chromas> Have a server for mail, instant messaging, contact/calendar sync but they each have to be connected to separately
[08:46:48] <tedious> I guess having nightmares about pandemics and freaking out about big brother is the new normal.
[08:47:01] <tedious> Wow.
[08:47:03] <chromas> Yes
[08:47:12] <chromas> Live in fear
[08:48:00] <chromas> Have some protests, then a pandemic to forget about the protests, then some more protests to forget about the pandemic
[09:04:34] <tedious> I came here for the news and I'm getting an education instead.

[10:37:14] <FatPhil> My troll phrases file is a working process, I'm honing in on perfection, for all intensive purposees.
[10:37:49] <FatPhil> the criterium for adding things to is a bit half-hazard.
[10:38:57] <FatPhil> it has some ad homonyms in it, but buy in large I avoid them.
[10:40:06] <chromas> I also avoid homophonic slurs
[10:40:31] <chromas> I've got up to at least three or more you could add

[14:30:58] <RandomFactor> @phatPhil This sounds like a file filled with phrases that my dear old grammar wouldn't like.
[14:36:44] <FatPhil> it has some classics
[14:37:07] <FatPhil> very handy for disrupting arguments with people who think they're clever
[14:37:42] <FatPhil> the file is literally called troll_phrases.txt, we're not hiding the fact.
[14:40:06] <RandomFactor> I wonder if there is a browser plugin that would work with it.

[14:48:40] * RandomFactor sighs at 'CALL^W'
[15:23:16] <Bytram> I don't know how many people are familiar with the origin of the phrase, but I changed it. Should show up shortly.
[15:35:44] <RandomFactor> I dunno, do they still make kids read Moby Dick? Seems like most of the stuff I had to suffer through, my kids managed to avoid.
[15:37:46] <RandomFactor> So overclarification may have its benefits. I've actually gone of researching things that were alluded to in dept tags before. Rabbit holes I never would have dug into.

[16:00:06] <systemd> Thanks for submitting this story. It appears that no editor has yet selected this story to be run. At least a week has passed since the story was submitted, and if an editor was going to have selected it, they would likely have done so by now. It has, therefore, been removed from the submission queue.
[16:01:45] <RandomFactor> Those depressing words. It's like confessing your love under the willow tree and being crushed and humiliated they laugh and walk away posting about it.
