[00:00:42] <chromas> Haven't seen it but apparently there's a second one
[00:09:00] <kyonko-> AzumaHazuki is flapping like centurylink
[00:09:27] <AzumaHazuki> I love you too, Chuuni-bro :)
[00:10:01] <kyonko-> I live in centurylink territory
[00:10:31] <kyonko-> I read the centurylink outage left norwegians only to connect amongst their national internet
[00:11:11] <AzumaHazuki> *laughs in lefse*
[00:11:34] <kyonko-> the centurylink outage was blamed on cloudflare
[00:11:50] <requerdanos> my goodness you certainly have thought about this centurylink outage
[00:12:00] <kyonko-> i live in centurylink land
[00:12:08] <kyonko-> i had them when wal-mart sold their modems
[00:12:38] <kyonko-> their only merit is that they give out static ips cheap
[00:14:18] <kyonko-> the heart of centurylink is utah
[00:14:36] <kyonko-> they were routing all the world's internet traffic "there"
[00:20:22] <requerdanos> CenturyLink, a fortune 500 company, is headquartered in Monroe, Louisiana.
[00:23:39] <kyonko-> yeah they used to be mountain bell
[00:23:44] <kyonko-> mountain bell became uswest
[00:23:49] <kyonko-> uswest became qwest
[00:23:51] <kyonko-> qwest became centurylink
[00:23:58] <kyonko-> centurylink went nationwide and global
[00:24:19] <kyonko-> the landline was fun, while it lasted
[00:24:25] <kyonko-> corrosion got to it
[00:24:47] <kyonko-> qwest was a real piece of shit, like worldcom
[00:25:01] <kyonko-> i remember when worldcom bought cable and wireless and mci
[00:25:46] <kyonko-> early internet was all mci
[00:26:37] <AzumaHazuki> out of curiosity, how many hours' sunlight, to the nearest dozen say, do you think you've gotten between then and now? ye gods.
[00:26:58] <kyonko-> I got some today
[00:27:04] <kyonko-> but I take HCTZ, AzumaHazuki
[00:27:07] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Sorry, Amazon, Microsoft Wins JEDI Contract Again Upon Re-Evaluation - https://sylnt.us - sore-loser
[00:27:30] <AzumaHazuki> wait, the thiazide diuretic? yeah might want to NOT get a lot of sun then
[00:27:36] <kyonko-> yep
[00:27:41] <kyonko-> I noticed the difference
[00:27:52] <kyonko-> well, I fought and fought but I got 2nd opinions
[00:28:31] <kyonko-> a doctor who was surrounded by death was their recommendation, I called bullshit then
[00:29:13] <kyonko-> the more death the better the doctor
[00:29:26] <kyonko-> why is that doctor so damn good? he/she sits on a mound of skulls
[00:30:08] <AzumaHazuki> ...what
[00:30:19] <kyonko-> well you know, she was from the inner city and black
[00:30:25] <AzumaHazuki> um...you don't need to reveal this since it's HIPAA-protecte--holy shit what
[00:30:25] <kyonko-> food desert doctor
[00:30:35] <kyonko-> my diseases?
[00:30:37] <requerdanos> apologies for my mild trolling
[00:30:45] <kyonko-> my diseases go back to africa
[00:30:54] <kyonko-> lots of people in japan have them, they look like me lol
[00:31:05] <kyonko-> "they die at work"
[00:31:16] <kyonko-> great honor that is
[00:31:29] <AzumaHazuki> well...as i war starting to say, you don't have to reveal your meds or diseases since it's HIPAA-protected, but, are you taking any neuroleptics or other psychoactive meds?
[00:31:56] <kyonko-> I was, then the court order expired and was not renewed by the judge
[00:32:04] <kyonko-> my psychiatrist at that point was an hindu-american
[00:32:38] <AzumaHazuki> what does the race or ethnicity have to do with it? all that matters is competence in the subject field
[00:33:23] <kyonko-> we import our medical care
[00:33:35] <kyonko-> there is a lot of black africans in nursing
[00:34:17] <AzumaHazuki> as opposed to, for example, Khoi and San Africans?
[00:34:35] <kyonko-> madgascarians
[00:34:45] <kyonko-> if you want to be technical lol
[00:34:59] <AzumaHazuki> again: all that matters is competence. i don't care what color my doctor is so long as they know their stuff
[00:35:07] <kyonko-> untill very recently I did not know what a yakonid was
[00:35:36] <kyonko-> the rock dwayne johnson's race
[00:35:54] <requerdanos> One of my doctors is from Bulgaria. She is the only Bulgarian person I have ever met.
[00:36:08] <kyonko-> requerdanos: did you ASK her nationality?
[00:36:27] <AzumaHazuki> and again...what does the race or nationality matter in terms of your care? why the need to keep bringing it up?
[00:36:52] <kyonko-> I don't know, it makes me wonder about their childhoods?
[00:37:15] <kyonko-> when I used to work, we used to give all the indians american names if they got asked
[00:37:44] <requerdanos> No, I was muttering something in Russian and she thought naturally that it was Bulgarian and wanted to know whether I was studying Bulgarian as some reason to stalk her. I genuinely didn't know (a) her nationality, and (b) that there were many cognates between Bulgarian and Russian
[00:37:47] <kyonko-> I didn't withold my namne as work, others did
[00:38:03] <AzumaHazuki> the west owes a tremendous debt to India and China for laying the foundations of medicine you know. You should study up on some of the famous old texts
[00:38:19] <kyonko-> requerdanos: probably like spanish and portuguese regarding mexicans and brazilians
[00:38:41] <kyonko-> italian is pretty much spanish
[00:39:02] <requerdanos> I dunno, as a Spanish speaker I can read portuguese a lot better than I can read Italian
[00:39:08] <AzumaHazuki> the Pen-t'sao Shen Nong ("Materia Medica of the Divine Farmer") for example. India has thousands-of-years-ancient surgical treatises, too. Technically, the non-religious/ritual parts of Buddhism are psychology
[00:41:04] <kyonko-> I take a fuckton of pills
[00:41:15] <kyonko-> probably contaminated with red mercury
[00:41:32] <kyonko-> these pills come from the mentioned countries
[00:41:34] <kyonko-> as I am poor
[00:43:28] <AzumaHazuki> the generics do come from there, yes. this isn't down to your poorness so much as rich peoples' greed. everything's been outsourced
[00:43:45] <kyonko-> yep
[00:43:53] <kyonko-> lots of phillipinos do tech support for my ISP
[00:43:56] <AzumaHazuki> frankly, this is one reason i try not to take any medicines at all, though this may not be possible much longer as i just turned 32...
[00:44:01] <kyonko-> they say who they are when asked
[00:44:08] <kyonko-> oh sweetie
[00:44:18] <kyonko-> and you haven't even lived :P
[00:44:47] <AzumaHazuki> i am prepared not to live to 35. I simply don't care any longer. BUT, if I die young, it will NOT be because of poor planning or lack of action on my part
[00:45:14] <kyonko-> yeah you wanna die right at the age evolution programmed you too
[00:45:23] <kyonko-> only reason we become geezers is because the tribe wants it
[00:45:50] <requerdanos> I would cheerfully live to 200
[00:45:52] <kyonko-> where were you when you first expierenced heat?
[00:46:40] <kyonko-> being old is mostly psychological
[00:46:58] <requerdanos> my knees and back beg to differ :)
[00:47:01] <AzumaHazuki> ...nnnno, being old is mostly physical
[00:47:04] <AzumaHazuki> knees and ba--yeah
[00:47:19] <kyonko-> well knees is where you know where to kick
[00:47:23] <kyonko-> nevermind
[00:47:26] <kyonko-> its hopeless
[00:47:30] <AzumaHazuki> i seem to have pretty good genes for the most part but my joints are beginning to hurt some.
[00:47:40] <kyonko-> I have so many diseases
[00:47:49] <kyonko-> I've seen a lot of diseased people in japanese erotica
[00:47:56] <kyonko-> hell they even have disabled people porn
[00:48:06] <AzumaHazuki> how the f--what possible connection would...jesus
[00:48:08] <AzumaHazuki> just. what.
[00:48:25] <kyonko-> asians are known for being old
[00:48:56] <AzumaHazuki> HOW did you make the leap from that first sentence to that second sentence? this sounds like schizophrenia or a related disorder. borderline word salads
[00:48:58] <kyonko-> if you were a kid in these days, just fucking lol
[00:49:18] <kyonko-> I understood that guy who has ops here talking about his bagpipes tittybeard
[00:49:35] <kyonko-> relax AzumaHazuki, I'm a nobody, a loser
[00:49:47] <kyonko-> I'll probably make it to 80 in a most heinous dystopian world
[00:50:26] <AzumaHazuki> uuugh, fuck that. death doesn't scare me. i'd rather be dead at 35 while the world's not entire horrible than spend twice that long suffering
[00:50:40] <kyonko-> who's going to keep your ashes?
[00:52:25] <AzumaHazuki> who cares? when i'm dead my body means nothing
[00:53:14] <kyonko-> stand tall and proud you told the great existential contest of homo sapiens to eat shit
[00:54:15] <requerdanos> "suffer" can mean "wait" or "allow", and I am pretty patient
[00:54:17] <kyonko-> you praise eastern philosophy and science but don't want to live to be old
[00:54:18] <kyonko-> ok
[00:54:28] <kyonko-> are you in russian federation requerdanos
[00:55:04] <requerdanos> No, and I probably don't speak more than about 12 words of Russian, sorry. Just learned where to not mumble them.
[00:55:14] <kyonko-> weird bro
[00:55:24] <kyonko-> then the doctor gets really curious
[00:55:26] <requerdanos> yeah, so I was told
[00:55:37] <kyonko-> are you like on auto-pilot?
[00:56:00] <requerdanos> I pilot actively.
[00:57:03] <requerdanos> at that, odd, time, I had a trilingual housekeeper from the ural mountains in Russia who had a degree in linguistics and a minor in spanish. So we had been chatting about words in English, Russian, Spanish.
[00:57:06] <kyonko-> yes, why leave it to musk
[00:57:22] <kyonko-> are you german?
[00:57:28] <kyonko-> germans hire russian servants
[00:57:38] <requerdanos> Oh, sorry, no, united states. North Carolina.
[00:57:56] <kyonko-> this irc networks hides your ip address
[00:58:10] <kyonko-> I used to find so many weird people doing a whois on their ip address
[00:58:18] <kyonko-> libya, saudi arabia, israel
[00:58:29] <RandomFactor> @requerdanos to 200 -reasonably pain-free, active, and with functioning senses- sure, I would be in also.
[00:58:58] <requerdanos> I would even be okay with some pain, as long as the senses are functioning
[00:59:04] <kyonko-> what if it becomes reality but not pain-free?
[00:59:15] <RandomFactor> yeah, i did say 'reasonably' pain free for that same reason :)
[00:59:23] <kyonko-> I've had major ear wax build up in my left ear this year
[00:59:42] <kyonko-> it affects the senses
[00:59:48] <kyonko-> even damn balance
[01:00:26] <kyonko-> then my left side is contracted compared to my right side.... well I'm right handed... but its all crossed over in the brain right?
[01:00:28] <RandomFactor> I had one of those once. Still remember it. Nurse took a big honking syringe of hot liquid and flushed it right out.
[01:00:45] <kyonko-> well I have the tools to clean it out when I find it intolerable
[01:00:50] <kyonko-> I don't care.... I'm quarantined
[01:01:20] <kyonko-> don't really care for this cold virus hysteria
[01:01:46] <kyonko-> I'd be such a mean parent telling my child that the sensation of cold in their skin is viruses
[01:01:51] <RandomFactor> I'm not a fan of getting seriously sick in any way.
[01:02:06] <kyonko-> I got pneumonia requiring antibiotics twice in the past years
[01:02:15] <kyonko-> the antibiotics came from croatia
[01:02:24] <RandomFactor> Could mention that flesh eating bacteria start with the nerves that transmit warmth....
[01:02:28] <kyonko-> 5 daily pills, pill #5 keeps working for 5 days
[01:02:36] <RandomFactor> if you want to pay for the therapy
[01:02:37] <kyonko-> lol
[01:02:40] <kyonko-> all bacteria eat flesh :)
[01:02:58] <kyonko-> AzumaHazuki should have been a mortician
[01:03:14] <kyonko-> never could understand why they couldn't embalm all the dead geezers in march
[01:03:16] <AzumaHazuki> how come? i'm not into dead bodies
[01:03:30] <RandomFactor> I think he's referring to the wrastler?
[01:03:34] <kyonko-> a psychologist told me I should become a mortician
[01:03:42] <AzumaHazuki> ...whyyyy? o_O
[01:03:53] <requerdanos> no, I am think the wrangler who prepares people for death type of mortician
[01:03:54] <kyonko-> something I said
[01:03:58] <kyonko-> this guy had like a stack of laptops on his desk
[01:04:05] <RandomFactor> "I like dead things"
[01:04:14] <kyonko-> crocodile skin shoes
[01:04:15] <RandomFactor> dead giveaway
[01:04:43] <AzumaHazuki> so to speak
[01:05:21] <kyonko-> he insisted on taking my blood pressure
[01:05:26] <kyonko-> weight and bp
[01:05:31] <kyonko-> never told me I was at risk
[01:05:41] <kyonko-> that was a whole nother can of worms situation 5 years later'
[01:05:57] <kyonko-> but this guy was also a death doula for the local health clinic
[01:07:26] <kyonko-> we don't have doulas here for birth
[01:08:08] <RandomFactor> hrmmm, closest thing to that I recall was "What to expect when you're expecting"
[01:08:20] <RandomFactor> and a baby shower
[01:08:34] <kyonko-> now you get a motherfucking dna test
[01:08:39] <kyonko-> is this child OUR SAVIOR!?
[01:08:49] <kyonko-> says here your kid is going to save mankind!
[01:09:03] <kyonko-> well, they call them genetic counselors
[01:09:24] <kyonko-> you are going to have 1 chad, 3 beckies and incel
[01:10:06] <RandomFactor> Wait...genetic counselors?
[01:10:12] * RandomFactor backs away slowly
[01:11:35] <kyonko-> yes doesn't your state have them?
[01:11:47] <kyonko-> NC bans genetic counselors?
[01:12:13] <RandomFactor> I wasn't aware that they were a thing at all
[01:12:14] <kyonko-> usually they never get a refusal for amniocentesis
[01:12:20] <kyonko-> dudeeeeeee
[01:12:23] <kyonko-> whre have you been?
[01:12:31] <kyonko-> don't you look at careerbuilder.com?
[01:12:36] <RandomFactor> well, no
[01:12:56] <kyonko-> I used to look at the job sites and select them to display all available jobs for a region
[01:13:09] <kyonko-> its either that or self employment
[01:13:14] <RandomFactor> I'm a force of inertia employment wize.
[01:13:21] <RandomFactor> s/wize/wise/
[01:13:33] <kyonko-> bam, 2008 hit and by 2009 the only job there was was "speech language pathologist"
[01:13:35] * RandomFactor peers about looking for systemd
[01:13:48] <requerdanos> according to duckduckgo, north carolina does in fact have genetic counselors.
[01:13:57] <kyonko-> can you trust duck duck go?
[01:14:15] <RandomFactor> Let me ask Google that
[01:14:20] <kyonko-> I wonder how a genetic counselor breaks it to the family they are going to have an incel
[01:14:31] <requerdanos> I trust the particular sites it returned enough to believe that the profession exists.
[01:14:40] <RandomFactor> "You're having a boy and you are ugly"
[01:15:27] <RandomFactor> unless incel means something else in this context
[01:15:36] <kyonko-> nah, its the people with ugly skulls
[01:15:43] <kyonko-> micrometers of bone
[01:15:58] <RandomFactor> i thought incel was 'involuntary celibate'
[01:16:12] <kyonko-> actual incel forums say its milimeters of bone, but thats a lot of bone, you would look like lion face
[01:16:13] <requerdanos> I thought the skull thing was phrenology
[01:16:17] <RandomFactor> yah
[01:16:36] <kyonko-> the beauty of a human face is micrometers of bone
[01:16:39] <kyonko-> and some fat
[01:17:03] <requerdanos> ime they also look better with a covering of skin.
[01:17:19] <kyonko-> I thought the incel forums would be blowing up over kyle rittenhouse but its just crickets
[01:17:33] <kyonko-> they still talk about the 2000's and PUA movement
[01:18:03] <kyonko-> will kyle rittenhouse get totally laid?
[01:18:34] <kyonko-> when I was a kid I didn't see incels
[01:18:41] <kyonko-> not untill the 2010's did it become a thing
[01:19:11] <RandomFactor> seriously everything coming up is the involuntery celibate thing. Although it seems to be branching into a generic frustration based misogyny
[01:20:11] <RandomFactor> ok, NYTimes wrote about "The Incel Rebellion"
[01:20:22] <RandomFactor> so its definitely evolved
[01:20:40] <RandomFactor> What are Chads and Stacys
[01:21:01] <kyonko-> A stacy is a model looking woman
[01:21:07] <kyonko-> Chads also look like male models
[01:21:23] <RandomFactor> ok, so male and female not-incels basically?
[01:21:33] <kyonko-> yeah beautiful people
[01:21:40] <kyonko-> usually employed walking the run way for fashion designers
[01:22:06] <kyonko-> like heidi klum or michael phelps... nevermind on michael phelps
[01:22:19] <RandomFactor> This seems like a more violent version of MGTOW
[01:22:27] <kyonko-> nah they are harmless
[01:22:27] <AzumaHazuki> it kind of is
[01:22:33] <AzumaHazuki> no the fuck they are not
[01:22:52] <kyonko-> because they had E.R. in 2014?
[01:22:56] <kyonko-> eliott roger
[01:23:02] <kyonko-> some guy who was all ape over being half asian
[01:24:11] <kyonko-> inceldom affects females too
[01:24:35] * RandomFactor considers snarking about incelsub but decides against it
[01:24:48] <kyonko-> in 2000's and 1990's I didn't see incels though
[01:25:19] <kyonko-> its just getting harder every year
[01:25:29] * RandomFactor coughs politely
[01:25:45] <RandomFactor> !grab kyonko
[01:25:45] <Bender> Added quote 982
[01:26:26] <kyonko-> what quote was that?
[01:26:34] <RandomFactor> !quote 982
[01:26:34] <Bender> Quote 982 - <kyonko> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[01:26:54] * RandomFactor ponders
[01:27:03] <requerdanos> well, didn't expect that
[01:27:08] <RandomFactor> no kidding
[01:27:16] <requerdanos> missed the dash
[01:28:02] <RandomFactor> !quote 900
[01:28:03] <Bender> Quote 900 - <RandomFactor> so if Korean pop is called kpop what is Korean rap called?
[01:28:11] <RandomFactor> !quote 982
[01:28:11] <Bender> Quote 982 - <kyonko> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[01:28:20] * RandomFactor is very confused
[01:28:22] <requerdanos> the dash.
[01:28:40] <RandomFactor> what dash dost thou refer?
[01:28:46] <requerdanos> "kyonko" != "kyonko-"
[01:28:52] <kyonko-> this dash doesn't really stand out on some UX
[01:29:00] <kyonko-> i'm on hexchat
[01:29:01] <RandomFactor> oh that's so wrong
[01:29:33] <RandomFactor> you got off easy /that/ time Kyonko-
[01:29:47] <kyonko-> its just getting harder every year
[01:29:58] <RandomFactor> !grab kyonk-
[01:29:58] <Bender> I don't know what kyonk- said, so I can't quote them!
[01:30:00] <kyonko-> and its true incels are post 2010 phenomenon
[01:30:05] * RandomFactor mutters
[01:30:19] <RandomFactor> the dash confuseth the Benter
[01:30:25] <RandomFactor> s/benter/bender
[01:30:37] <kyonko-> there was no problems regarding looksmatching in the previous decades
[01:31:14] <requerdanos> I heard China was launching a reusable space plane.
[01:31:27] <RandomFactor> They launched it Thursday
[01:31:42] <RandomFactor> on a Longmarch 2
[01:32:05] <RandomFactor> Haven't said **** about it though.
[01:32:18] <Bytram> RandomFactor: How'd you know *that*? :D
[01:32:24] <kyonko-> put a space plan on the moon
[01:32:39] <RandomFactor> @bytram it's a mystery
[01:32:48] <kyonko-> Bytram: are you bagpipes tittybeard?
[01:32:51] <Bytram> (thanks for the story sub; it's now pushed into the story queue)
[01:33:24] <requerdanos> a plane (the geometric form) can only be tangent in reference to the surface of a planet
[01:33:43] <kyonko-> a plane flies through the fluid of gaseous elements
[01:33:44] <RandomFactor> But a space plane could be a deltawing
[01:33:58] * kyonko- breathes water
[01:34:05] <Bytram> kyonko-: no, I'm tired and heading to bed soon. Hopefully there is no construction tomorrow AM with incessant vehicle backup noises (Beeeep Beeeep Beeeep Beeeep Beeeep ad nauseum)
[01:34:14] <requerdanos> a space plane could be shaped like a boiler, or a model A
[01:34:25] <kyonko-> Bytram: Oh someone is filling in a valley around me to build a warehouse
[01:34:50] <kyonko-> its taking years
[01:34:57] <kyonko-> I hope its worth it
[01:35:40] <RandomFactor> could be worse. Garbage truck tire could blow out in front of your house. The garbage man near the truck near had a heart attack and the guy in the cab nearly died laughing.
[01:35:53] <RandomFactor> Sounded like an explosion
[01:36:07] <RandomFactor> turns out the crank those tires up to some insane pressure
[01:36:12] <RandomFactor> they*
[01:36:20] <chromas> Does the he use the trash can arm to pick the tire up off the wheel and set it inside the truck?
[01:36:33] <kyonko-> RandomFactor: its to hold up the weight
[01:36:44] <kyonko-> its around 100psi
[01:36:50] <Bytram> many MANY years ago, I watched the top of a mountain (prolly 100+ feet tall) get blasted off week by week (yes, solid rock) to make a place to put in an office building. Years later I found myself actually working in that building!
[01:36:51] <RandomFactor> yah, but never really thought about it until one blew near us :-)
[01:37:11] <kyonko-> Bytram: what office building was it?
[01:37:24] <kyonko-> RandomFactor: happens all the time now since 2008
[01:37:35] <kyonko-> 18 wheeler tires cost about $1000+ each
[01:37:45] <Bytram> this was back in the 1980s
[01:37:55] <kyonko-> oh wow the 1980s
[01:38:01] <kyonko-> back when you could get away with it all!
[01:38:05] <Bytram> 'nuff chatting; I'm knackered and heading off to bed.

[19:17:17] <FatPhil> Chatting with a local mate, any more than one carrot ruins a stew, no matter how large, I think he's mad.
[19:17:40] <requerdanos> A little carrot goes a long way.
[19:17:58] <FatPhil> that was his argument. I actually like the taste, and I like it sharing that with the whole stew
[19:18:25] <FatPhil> "too sweet" was one of his objections
[19:19:52] <FatPhil> I go a bit mental on the onions too. And the garlic.
[19:20:18] <requerdanos> Sure, it's physically difficult to add too much onion and garlic.
[19:21:21] <FatPhil> 10 cloves whole for stewing for hours, and then 2 cloves chopped into quarters and thrown in 15 minutes before serving, and not stirred in (and repeat each day).
[19:22:12] <requerdanos> That sounds reasonable.
[19:38:42] <Bytram> So, the last time I made a stew I used 3 pounds (~1.4 kg) of baby carrots, a 10 pound ham, 5 pounds of potatoes, a some large onions, 4 pounds of other mixed vegies, a bunch of spices, etc. and threw it in a 5 gallon (~21 liter) stock pot and let it simmer for a few hours.
[19:38:58] <Bytram> is that too much carrot?

[21:57:41] <kyonko-> its gold?
[21:57:45] <kyonko-> test it live covid!
[21:58:01] <Bytram> Actually took a (slow) lap around the nurburgring (short course).
[21:58:10] <kyonko-> FatPhil: how hard would it be to prove its gold?
[21:58:18] <kyonko-> I know computers had gold in them....
[21:58:33] <kyonko-> getting rid of the aurum gave them to the poors
[21:58:52] <kyonko-> F1 is my kind of gimpy sport
[21:58:59] <kyonko-> and horse racing
[21:59:07] <Bytram> do not use for sipping aqua regia
[22:00:08] <kyonko-> today I was thinking about how the alchemists did it in the renessaince
[22:00:15] <kyonko-> don't let them into the communal baths!
[22:05:20] <kyonko-> I want to meet the clay guy for the glass blowers
[22:05:28] <kyonko-> he doesn't get much credit in history

[23:47:50] <requerdanos> So what's an instant pot do.
[23:48:14] <kyonko-> a slow cooker?
[23:48:20] <kyonko-> or jiffy pop?
[23:48:32] <kyonko-> you don't need open flame for jiffy pop
[23:49:46] <requerdanos> I know what slow cookers and jiffy pop do.
[23:50:05] <chromas> instant pot is a brand of pressure cooker
[23:50:16] <chromas> which for some reason is suddenly all the rage on the internet
[23:50:58] <kyonko-> oh well, don't fill it up with firecrackers
[23:51:04] <requerdanos> brand of pressure cooker; thank you.
[23:51:19] <kyonko-> pressure cookers only are a necessity if you are a camper
[23:51:31] <kyonko-> like up there in the rockies
[23:51:40] <kyonko-> it helps save gas and firewood
[23:52:32] <kyonko-> all of them I've found are so small you can't fit anything in them
[23:52:47] <kyonko-> yeah going to make some rice and beans, for the camping trip
[23:53:14] <kyonko-> but I take it you put a bunch of dead meat in there and in 3 minutes its fucking done
