[00:00:49] <Runaway1956> Welllllll nowwwww - I'm not having a lot of luck booting my macbook to a dual boot
[00:01:13] <Runaway1956> I succeeded once, with Windoze, with some cheating with proprietary software
[00:01:22] <Runaway1956> but Linux is being stubborn
[00:02:01] <Runaway1956> I'm falling back to MXLinux, using Balena Etcher to create the bootable USB
[00:04:14] * Runaway1956 sighs
[00:04:51] <Runaway1956> fail to boot again - I'm doing something wrong - reformat stupid USB and start over again

[04:03:40] <Runaway1956> Finally have an answer, why I can't boot into Linux
[04:04:17] <Runaway1956> It's the T2 security chip - all the guides I've been following were done BEFORE 2019 security chip was implemented
[04:04:44] <Runaway1956> The workaround looks tedious, no way am I starting on that tonight!
[04:05:54] <Runaway1956> If I had settled for an i7 instead of i9 CPU, I could have booted into any of the Linuxes

[06:00:17] <kyonko``> I won't trust anything that is UEFI, unless i am forced to use it for telepresence
[06:00:40] <kyonko``> and my new 2020 chromebook barely works with congested internet
[06:01:01] <kyonko``> most telepresence I do is voip

[07:04:00] <kyonko``> did you at least cat them to see what they are?
[07:04:27] <kyonko``> no way i am using UEFI only computers the amd PSP is bad enough
[07:04:39] <kyonko``> the intel ME loved to wake me up in REM sleep
[07:04:55] <kyonko``> like musical card music
[07:05:33] <kyonko``> I have one intel ME ultrabook with a used up battery, no ME shenanigans there
[07:30:19] <FatPhil> things you don't want to hear at the table next to you at the hotel breakfast "well, I was hoping I wouldn't get it, cross fingers, but I woke up with it this morning, that's why we're a little late"
[07:38:46] <AzumaHazuki> ...wellll, piiiiizdec
[07:39:09] <FatPhil> But I can tell you one thing - there's clearly no covid in greece, either that or they're 100% vaccinated, and boosted, and the vaccine's 100% effective. Because there are no sensible effective precautions on display here.
[07:39:47] <AzumaHazuki> omicron is thankfully rather weak if you're vaccinated and boosted. i am fairly certain i've caught it, and blown through it in about 24 hours
[07:39:48] <FatPhil> they check vax certs if you want to be inside a bar, but all bars have terraces.
[07:42:57] <FatPhil> the plan is to grab an instant test the day after we get back home, so that I can host a beer tasting on new years eve. i think there's a place round the corner that does tests for 15e, which ain't too bad.
[07:43:18] <FatPhil> fuckers at the airport ripped us off to the tune of 65e on the way over.
[07:43:39] <FatPhil> we had no warning that a recent neg was necessary for flying.
[07:44:18] <FatPhil> I've also been told that the greeks might refuse to let us fly tomorrow, because we haven't filled out a non-existent form.
[07:44:46] <AzumaHazuki> ahh, yes, the tyranny of the B(eta)-Ark candidates
[07:45:04] <FatPhil> a fellow estonian was here overlapping with us, and he said he had troubles.

[15:17:55] <Runaway1956> Downloader must have been corrupting one or both files - wierd
[15:18:12] <Runaway1956> I now have the iso to work with
[15:18:36] <Runaway1956> That's what I get for relying on GUI tools all the time

[15:20:44] <Runaway1956> lol
[15:23:44] <t3> it's a shame the *bsd ftp command hasn't been ported to linux
[15:23:55] <Subsentient> Lol. Drunk as fuck and realizing that the reason I was happy as a kid
[15:24:00] <Subsentient> was that I was stupid as fuck lmao
[15:24:41] <Subsentient> I envy the hicks with their trailer trash wives and mobile home lifestyles, they're too dumb to know how fucked they are
[15:26:43] <Subsentient> God I really wish I was dead. The worst part of that is that I only wish I was dead because life is a living hell. The world could have been different, the universe could have been different. If he exists, I curse God for his negligence
[15:26:59] <Subsentient> I hope he pays for what he's done
[15:27:45] <Subsentient> Someone has got to pay, other than the people of this insipid planet

[15:28:36] <Subsentient> More or less, yup
[15:28:54] <Subsentient> We're a product of the abortion universe that birthed us. Humans are evil because the universe is
[15:29:13] <t3> there's no such thing as evil, that's a useless concept
[15:29:59] <t3> we do what we do because we do what we do
[15:30:16] <Subsentient> t3: I've given it a decade of thought, and I believe there is such a thing as evil, but it's far narrower than most people expect. Still, with that narrow definition, humans are a massive disappointment
[15:31:04] <Subsentient> Ignore me, I'm wasted and depressive

[21:01:46] <Runaway1956> In the credits
[21:01:56] <Runaway1956> Covid Compliance Kathrin Krückeberg
[21:02:14] <Runaway1956> I'm just shaking my head . . .
[21:03:23] <Runaway1956> 2 hrs 27 minutes, with ~11 minutes of credits, including the guys who catered dinner.
[21:27:37] <kyonko``> I'm not anti-vax or anti-mask or rules or whatever
[21:27:51] <kyonko``> but I don't do things when they are obviously ritual humiliation
[21:28:05] <kyonko``> in science, especially lab settings, vaccines do work
[21:28:55] <kyonko``> some guy ended up with a bad case of a paralysing stroke like illness aftering forgetting his rabies boosters in the lab where they breed rabies for vaccines
[21:29:15] <kyonko``> so i'm sick of the media saying its ebola or its rabies
[21:29:22] <Runaway1956> Ugghhhhh - that sounds positively ugly
[21:29:27] <kyonko``> its ebolaidsabies
[21:29:32] <kyonko``> he sued
[21:29:49] <Runaway1956> more importantly, he recovered?
[21:29:57] <kyonko``> no
[21:30:21] <kyonko``> you don't recover from this, even if its stopped by half ass immunization
[21:30:53] <Runaway1956> So, uhhhhh, it ate half his brain, and he's stuck like that?
[21:30:56] <kyonko``> there came i point where I started to think what if pet vaccine clinics are just saline
[21:31:14] <kyonko``> he's stuck like that, his employer is paying for his disability
[21:31:29] <kyonko``> i don't know how he just forgot to get a booster or wear protection that day
[21:31:30] <Runaway1956> sounds worse than merely miserable
[21:31:46] <kyonko``> as fully vaxed workers don't wear protection around rabies
[21:31:59] <kyonko``> look at covaids1984
[21:32:01] <kyonko``> same story
[21:32:06] <kyonko``> its either rabies or ebola, or both
[21:32:31] <kyonko``> i got tetanus shots as a kid
[21:33:12] <kyonko``> all these scary disease didn't stop the 2020 riot mobs
[21:33:12] <Runaway1956> I remember every time I got a scratch or a scrape, someone wanted to give me a tetanus shot
[21:33:29] <kyonko``> i recal the proper procedure is for puncture wounds
[21:33:46] <kyonko``> like the covid shot
[21:34:00] <Runaway1956> "Doctor, I've had 48 tetanus shots, and I'm only 13 - don't you think we can skip this one?
[21:34:07] <kyonko``> a blood test in the vein isn't exactly a puncture wound
[21:34:57] <kyonko``> i think its just part of modern life to get a blood test at 5 or earlier
[21:35:18] <Bytram> anything that breaks the skin could, potentially lead to an infection. IIRC booster is due if if has been 10 or more years
[21:35:28] <kyonko``> well
[21:35:44] <Bytram> =w tetanus shot
[21:35:45] <systemd> Tetanus vaccine, also known as tetanus toxoid (TT), is a toxoid vaccine used to prevent tetanus. During childhood, five doses are recommended, with a - https://en.wikipedia.org
[21:35:46] <kyonko``> just inhaling virus, bactria and mold into the mucus membrames of the inner body is enough
[21:36:02] <kyonko``> i know the major killers of man btw
[21:36:07] <Runaway1956> They just like sticking needles in me because they know I'm allergic to needles
[21:36:33] <kyonko``> mrsa infects unbroken skin
[21:36:48] <kyonko``> "mrsa lives in the nose" goes the modern lore
[21:36:57] <kyonko``> testing testing testing
[21:37:15] <Bytram> Tetanus vaccine, also known as tetanus toxoid (TT), is a toxoid vaccine used to prevent tetanus.[2] During childhood, five doses are recommended, with a sixth given during adolescence.[2]
[21:37:16] <Bytram> After three doses, almost everyone is initially immune,[2] but additional doses every ten years are recommended to maintain immunity.[3] A booster shot should be given within 48 hours of an injury to people whose immunization is out of date.[4] For people with high-risk injuries who are not fully immunized, tetanus antitoxin may also be recommended.[2]
[21:37:31] <kyonko``> yeah thats the problem with "immune"
[21:37:45] <kyonko``> "immune" doesn't mean you start acting like an animal
[21:38:12] <Runaway1956> Neither does "immune" mean that I start puncturing myself, lol
[21:38:17] <kyonko``> I like that tetanus factoid, its a lot like computer literature, that is always incomplete and have to jump to another volume
[21:38:56] <kyonko``> you can find rich unix bibliographies, but nothing on bare metal
[21:39:13] <kyonko``> its like "porting unix to different architectures is enough, just learn c"
[21:39:19] <Runaway1956> Well, we do have nudity laws
[21:39:36] <kyonko``> the mask takes care of that
[21:39:43] <kyonko``> and yes, they do choke you
[21:39:52] <kyonko``> especially when walking fast or lifting weight
[21:40:46] <Runaway1956> I suspect that if you go mountain climbing, the mask police will be waiting at the top to be sure you have your mask on
[21:41:10] <kyonko``> i think mountain climbing has a bigger risk of frostbite on your face
[21:41:30] <kyonko``> like that guy who lost his nose on mt. mckinley
[21:41:32] <Runaway1956> Depends on how high the mountain, and what season -
[21:41:43] <kyonko``> he got surprised in fall
