[01:10:46] <Runaway1956> [global notice] Due to today's high wave of spam, you might want to set yourself +R to block PMs from unidentified users. In many clients this is "/mode YourNickHere +R" and we've enabled this as a default mode for the duration.

[01:19:25] <chromas> Is someone spamming freenode with messages about freenode again?
[01:19:51] <Runaway1956> I'm not sure what's going on - freenode just stays open most of the time
[01:20:08] <Runaway1956> Suddenly, all my tabs turned red, and I had that message
[01:20:12] <Runaway1956> lol I guess

[01:20:53] <chromas> no
[01:21:02] <Runaway1956> it appears to work in my torbrowser
[01:22:26] <Runaway1956> That flatpak installation is nonsense -
[01:23:03] <Runaway1956> first you have to know where flatpak installs itself, then you have to know that flatpak installs applications into subdirectories inside it's own install directory
[01:23:54] <Runaway1956> I guess this is the "correct" way to invoke the installed application?
[01:23:58] <Runaway1956> flatpak run org.onionshare.OnionShare
[01:26:00] <chromas> Never used 'em. The idea's kinda nice for keeping things self-contained, but it seems a lot more complimicated than it needs to be
[01:26:12] <chromas> It's like they're trying to copy the Apple way of installing stuff I guess
[01:28:28] <Runaway1956> There's a PPA repository - maybe I'll add that, and get rid of flatpak
[01:28:48] <Runaway1956> On the other hand, I'll probably never actually use onionshare -
[01:28:57] <Runaway1956> maybe I'll just dump it all
[01:32:30] * chromas should install the tors
[01:32:59] <chromas> wow, it's on sourceforge. didn't even know that was still a thing

[09:55:12] <AzumaHazuki> don't run IRC as root, debil
[09:57:01] <kyonko> yeah yeah
[09:57:19] <kyonko> you can't even have root on android and chromeos
[09:57:34] <kyonko> its a real fucking pain when you need hardware access to drives
[09:57:58] <AzumaHazuki> ah...it's about time i replaced this old Moto C Plus...a Pixel 4a would be nice and i can actually afford one now
[09:58:04] <kyonko> opensuse and fedora won't mount disk images over a certain size
[09:58:12] <kyonko> but mint and its systemd will
[09:58:22] <kyonko> I do use android
[09:58:37] <kyonko> the IOS ecosystem is just unusable
[09:59:26] <kyonko> I know they spy on me, I know they know I only use my phone for 2FA
[09:59:36] <kyonko> I have no contacts on my phone
[09:59:38] <kyonko> lol
[09:59:50] <kyonko> this was pre-covid code of conduct
[10:01:34] <kyonko> I gave facebook 5 years of my life
[10:02:48] <AzumaHazuki> a phone that can use lineageos will cut down on a lot of that
[10:02:51] <kyonko> yeah I'll buy a chromebook eventually, see what usb-c is all about
[10:03:27] <kyonko> I got a voip land line, I get a lot of scam calls, but not at night
[10:04:11] <kyonko> I answer ever call, I have no qualms
[10:04:36] <kyonko> I got a primary care appt back in dec. 7, and got some blood drawn, I received the call to let me know I am normal
[10:06:18] <kyonko> people both family and strangers have the gall to tell me I aint shit in life
[10:07:21] <kyonko> I have obamacare, and arizona state medicaid cut down the premium pharmacies, so now I have the contaminated cancer pills
[10:08:18] <kyonko> I know I stick out like a sore thumb on the big data that is obamacare
[10:08:32] <AzumaHazuki> hm, some healthcare would be nice now i have insurance. the rapid response to iodized salt makes me suspect subclinical hypothyroidism
[10:09:06] <kyonko> I'm kinda sorta a health nazi
[10:10:04] <kyonko> and big data in healthcare is real, HIPPA be damned
[10:10:16] <kyonko> its a minority of diabetics that live to be old
[10:10:30] <kyonko> this trend is not going to reverse
[10:11:29] <kyonko> I knew something was wrong when I began to get fat and then skinny really fucking fast and cyclical
[10:11:37] <kyonko> it happened around 2008
[10:12:04] <kyonko> in 2011 I was at my heaviest, by 2014 and 2015, quite thin as I am now
[10:12:10] <kyonko> psych meds made me pudgy
[10:13:08] <kyonko> I got great tits back in 2011
[10:13:23] <kyonko> no fucking way I'd make them permanent with risperidone
[10:14:06] <kyonko> I'm glad I don't have that disorder that causes my arteries to clog
[10:14:14] <kyonko> but I have a lot of other things
[10:15:13] <kyonko> I cook healthy, and it could be a problem others won't eat what I make
[10:15:30] <kyonko> I am very fire safe and burn safe when I cook
[10:15:55] <kyonko> fuck, they just should have left well enough alone with pre-covid economy
[10:17:24] <kyonko> the good thing is I get full and stay full for a good while
[10:17:33] <kyonko> :/
[10:18:15] <kyonko> I know I am damn close to being emaciated
[10:18:30] <kyonko> this would be a big red flag in healthcare big data
[10:18:46] <kyonko> they started logging a trend of my weight going down since a certain date
[10:19:12] <kyonko> begin psych meds and go up, remain stable on a diet, then stop psych meds and go down
[10:19:36] <kyonko> its olanzapine, jfyi
[10:19:45] <AzumaHazuki> that will do it, yes. the *done family is well-known for fucking with glycaemic control and energy balance. especially olanza-fucking-pine
[10:20:56] <AzumaHazuki> in pharmacodynamics terms, those drugs tend to hammer on basically every receptor family in the brain except the sigmas. their effects on the dopamine and certain serotonin (5HT2 I suspect) are what cause increased appetite iirc
[10:21:24] <kyonko> olanzapine gives me intense movie like dreams
[10:21:32] <kyonko> during the initial first few days
[10:22:28] <kyonko> the psychiatrists never got what they wanted from me anyway
[10:22:47] <kyonko> it was always a problem with them and my social withdrawl
[10:22:54] <kyonko> this was pre-covid btw
[10:25:14] <kyonko> corona code has the gyms closed on weekends for some non-sensical reason
[10:25:21] <kyonko> but they close at midnight on weekdays
[10:26:19] <kyonko> I really just don't need to go out or even travel
[10:27:41] <kyonko> people are already dying at alarming rates from diabetes before covid
[10:28:36] <kyonko> you will go into a coma when the blood in your capillaries is literally syrup
[10:28:45] <kyonko> monster blood pressure too
[10:28:50] <kyonko> trying to move it around
[10:29:21] <kyonko> they need to tell the truth about those who died from the cold in 2020
[10:29:32] <kyonko> I mean the cold virus, not hypothermia
[10:29:37] <kyonko> I mean..... not texas
[10:29:43] <kyonko> before texas
[10:30:06] <kyonko> you have to be really really messed up to die from a cold
[10:31:20] <kyonko> we'll never look at cold & flu and NSAIDs the same ever again
[10:32:41] <kyonko> IIRC, there was already a problem with NSAID poisoning in the US years before covid19
[10:32:55] <kyonko> no, covid19 did not blow up your kidneys and livers
[10:33:55] <kyonko> no mention of respiratory syncytial virus
[10:33:58] <kyonko> RSVV
[10:36:30] <kyonko> NKDA
[10:36:43] <kyonko> also a problem
[10:53:08] <AzumaHazuki> uh, covid19 can cause extensive organ damage because of how it works. the ACE2 receptor is expressed constitutively, but is especially important in the kidneys' processes
[10:53:19] <AzumaHazuki> it's part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system

[13:52:42] <Bytram> janrinok: !!
[13:56:45] <janrinok> Bytram, !!
[13:57:39] <Bytram> about time for tea?
[13:58:24] <janrinok> just making it now
[13:58:40] <Bytram> howz thingz?
[13:59:53] <janrinok> OK, still trying to get a booking for our COVID vaccinations but the French are making a bureaucratic mess of it all.
[14:00:09] <Bytram> nod nod
[14:00:46] <Bytram> my state is doing better than most, but is still struggling to stand up a central clearing house
[14:01:04] <janrinok> You apparently have to go online to verify that there is a slot available, telephone to book the slot, and then confirm back online again - but each session is using a different database which do not tally with each other
[14:01:55] <Bytram> I'm not old enough or sick enough or work/live in an environment which warrants expediting things
[14:02:21] <Bytram> so, will prolly be a few months before I get mine
[14:02:25] <Bytram> ugh!
[14:02:43] <janrinok> Then the French will only use certain vaccines for certain age groups - despite there being loads of evidence for the efficacy of each of the vaccines for any age group - and so they have to match your needs to a specific vaccine.
[14:03:37] <janrinok> One of S's nurses is kindly trying to help us but even he is amazed at the mess it is all in.
[14:04:23] <Bytram> We've got to DO somthing! We're doing SOMEthing! Therefore, it MUST be *GOOD*!
[14:04:23] <janrinok> He is talking directly to the people giving the vaccinations - and they are saying yes they can accept us - but the online bit is saying that it isn't possible.
[14:04:57] <Bytram> and its not like you can drive up and get it done, either. :/
[14:05:01] <Bytram> {{{{ S }}}}
[14:05:07] <Bytram> {{{{ JR }}}}
[14:05:14] <janrinok> nope - and the nearest centre is over an hour away
[14:05:41] <Bytram> sounds awfully frustrating!
[14:06:30] <janrinok> getting S ready, loading the wheelchair, having the vaccination, waiting the necessay 30 minutes to confirm no adverse reaction, reloading S into the car and travelling both ways makes it a half day affair...
[14:07:29] <janrinok> Oh, and we cannot have our injections at the same time. So I cannot have mine until S has finished her 30 minutes wait, and then I have to have my 30 minute wait.
[14:07:30] * Bytram has spent enough time working on data warehouses and repositories to know that having the data in databases does not mean they share logical data models, definitions, etc.
[14:08:29] <Bytram> ?? so if anything untoward happens, the other can speak for the affected person?
[14:08:41] <janrinok> good for a laugh though, I was wondering how to fill a Saturday morning in late March!
[14:08:52] <Bytram> lol
[14:09:20] <Bytram> time it right, you might just be able to get a whole day out of it!
[14:09:35] <janrinok> No idea for the waiting logic - it just seems like 'that is how it is' rather than anyone being able to explain it
[14:10:13] <Bytram> imagine being one of the health care workers who has to deal with this all day long
[14:10:32] <janrinok> Even our nurse, who tried to find out why things are that way, came away shaking his head.
[14:10:59] -!- kyonko has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[14:11:16] <janrinok> Apparently, the people actually doing the injections are fine, it is just the 327 admin people who are required to oversea each appt
[14:11:24] <Bytram> Well, are they gonna stand there with a stopwatch? I expect after 25-20 minutes they might give it a go, anyway
[14:11:41] <janrinok> more like 45 minutes just 'to be sure'

[15:57:16] <FatPhil> nationwide, most judges are anti-Dem
[15:57:33] <Runaway1956> That's seems a preposterous claim
[15:57:49] <Runaway1956> Dem presidents have appointed as many judges as Rep presidents
[15:59:21] <requerdanos> Some judges are appointed, some elected, I don't get the feeling you are speaking from a knowledge of the actual numbers involved
[16:00:25] <Runaway1956> Federal judges are appointed - elected judges generally serve in county positions I think.
[16:00:52] <Runaway1956> But, I didn't make the original claim - I think FatPhil should justify his claim

[16:04:18] <FatPhil> "Nearly a third of the nation's Circuit Court judges were picked by Trump and confirmed by Republican senators,”
[16:04:36] <FatPhil> not bad for 4 years work, well done Mitch
[16:05:59] <FatPhil> Trump and McConnell have confirmed more judges at a faster rate than any recent administration other than Jimmy Carter's, when the judiciary was greatly expanded.
[16:06:00] <requerdanos> of course, "a third... were" means "two thirds... weren't"
[16:06:31] <FatPhil> and how long is the average time in office?
[16:06:41] <Runaway1956> Interesting - and I approve
[16:06:52] * Runaway1956 doesn't like liberal judges
[16:07:27] <FatPhil> or female ones, or non-white ones, if you approve of the recent policies.
[16:08:02] <Runaway1956> Now you're being silly - I was all for the female that Trump apppointed to the Supreme Court

[16:08:54] <FatPhil> You just have to have your eyes open
[16:09:13] <Runaway1956> So, you approve of judges based on their appearance?
[16:09:28] <FatPhil> These things are simply facts, and I know you're highly fact resistent.
[16:09:39] <FatPhil> Straw man, doofus.
[16:09:45] <Runaway1956> Truth over facts!
[16:09:58] <requerdanos> ah, it's popular to approve/disapprove of them based on appearance.
[16:10:21] <FatPhil> It shouldn't be, but for Mitch and Donnie, it was.

[16:11:33] <Runaway1956> Twenty-eight percent of judges appointed by President Trump have been female.

[21:21:43] <FatPhil> Glen?!? Grant?

[21:24:14] <kyonko> yes Grant
[21:24:16] <kyonko> who was Glen?
[21:24:21] <kyonko> was there a glen?
[21:24:26] <kyonko> Did I get them mixed up?
[21:24:33] <kyonko> Grant is usually a surname

[21:25:20] <kyonko> this is a genetic problem for japanese
[21:25:28] <kyonko> so how do they live to get old?
[21:25:30] <kyonko> thats 1 in 1,000
[21:26:27] <kyonko> Oh wow I just discovered something weird
[21:26:44] <kyonko> I turned off my chromebook pixel 2013 because ads make it hot
[21:26:53] <kyonko> flipping it over so I can run my hand over the hotspots
[21:27:25] <kyonko> and the friction ridges on my palm causes a strange interaction on the seemingly smooth surface that makes my brain believe something is vibrating like a tattoo machine
[21:27:51] <kyonko> I like metal computers, there should be more of them
[21:29:40] <kyonko> eventually I'll get a chromebook, a new and modern one and see what the hysteria over usb-c is
[21:30:05] <kyonko> its castrated computing
[21:32:48] <FatPhil> me wants tech where he plugs his dieing phone into his laptop to recharge it, and the laptop detects the phone as a possible source of charge, so drains it.
[21:33:11] <kyonko> Ok, yeah I get it
[21:33:20] <kyonko> you like 0%
[21:33:35] <kyonko> the only reason I even have a chromebook pixel 2013 is that its battery is dead
[21:33:42] <kyonko> so dead that pulling the plug nix it
[21:34:02] <kyonko> you need 0% to even know where you are FatPhil
[21:35:32] <kyonko> the chromebook pixel 2015, the one with the i7 is extremely rare

[21:42:27] <FatPhil> got a strange SMS earlier, which just said "Who are you?". Didn't recognise the number, neither did Google, so decided not to dox myself. Not that our numbers aren't in our public company records anyway, so if they want to know who that number belongs to it's a matter of public record.
[21:42:51] <chromas> say "I'm the guy"
[21:45:20] <kyonko> lol
[21:45:24] <kyonko> yeah I get those a lot on VOIP

[21:46:23] <kyonko> and I really don't give a flying fuck about privacy, but I don't like giving my ass away either
[21:46:48] <kyonko> and who the fuck does SMS these days anyway
[21:47:14] <kyonko> for some reason I never noticed twttr in mid 2000's or facebook
[21:47:26] <kyonko> where was I?
