[02:37:34] <Bytram> from the Dunning-Kruger dept.

[02:40:01] <Bytram> How would you pick a winner from all the nominees?
[03:15:25] <FatPhil> why was "north" important in that headline - is there some kind of regional racism?
[03:17:34] <FatPhil> are south texans supposed to just shrug and say "ha! typical stupid north texans"?
[03:48:24] <chromas> I wonder how many were actually trying to cure their covids, vs just regular bleach drinkers
[03:55:32] <AzumaHazuki> does it matter? fewer texans
[03:58:57] -!- systemd [systemd!~systemd@pid1] has joined #soylent
[03:59:53] <chromas> I'd prefer fewer Californians.
[04:00:22] <AzumaHazuki> you would, yeah, but you're dumb and your opinions aren't worth spit
[04:05:52] <chromas> Your insults are getting lazy. Must be doing better in the new town.
[04:15:25] <FatPhil> I can be the peace-maker here, and compromise: you're both right.
[04:24:31] <Bytram> maybe they were *still* tallying how many South Texans succumbed?

[14:10:59] <Bytram> Well! *that* was "fun"
[14:12:10] <Bytram> Woke up way too early this morning. Tried to go to SoylentNews... page timed out. Huh! If was fine less than 5 hours earlier... Uh oh!
[14:13:41] <Bytram> Tried some other pages on our site...Tried IRC. No go. E-mail? Nada. Dev? Nope! Yikes!
[14:14:46] <Bytram> Them I tried a few other sites. Un-uh. Duckduckgo? Nope. twitter? instagram? negatory.
[14:14:56] <Bytram> Wikipedia? Sure, no problem!
[14:15:01] <Bytram> WHAT?
[14:15:49] <Bytram> There were a [very] few pages I could get to, and reliably, too. The others were just a bit bucket.
[14:16:01] <Bytram> Now, this was on my phone.
[14:16:39] <Bytram> Tried to use it as a WiFi point to get online (like I usually) do.
[14:16:49] <Bytram> Same symptoms.
[14:17:05] <Bytram> Have better diagnostics on PC.
[14:18:01] <Bytram> pings could resolve domain names to IPv4 addresses, but timed out for most sites -- but a few were still working.
[14:19:48] <Bytram> Called my phone provider. After a couple judicious choices on the call tree, was finally able to be connected to tech support. But,
[14:20:52] <Bytram> "Our hours of operation are 8 AM -9 PM. You can either call back during these hours, or leave a call back number and you will retain your place in line."
[14:21:00] <Bytram> Left phone #
[14:21:33] <Bytram> "We'll get back to you in... over 30 minutes"
[14:23:06] <Bytram> over an hour later, get the callback. Tech was pleasant enough, but was basically "we have reports of tower troubles, no ETA". (They had done some tower upgrades over the weekend.)
[14:25:57] <Bytram> Finally got back on-line about a half hour ago. So far, things look okay.
[14:26:22] <Bytram> Heck of a way to start my day!

[14:57:06] <nutherguy> none of that excuses pumping seven shots into the man
