[02:15]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2]: Heat index of 100 F today.
[02:15]	IsambardPrince	We went out to the gardens.
[02:16]	IsambardPrince	Kept going to thee visitor center to refill ice water tumblers though. They have a filtered ice water machine that's free to use.
[02:16]	IsambardPrince	So the heat wasn't so bad.
[02:16]	IsambardPrince	The main concern in something like this is not hydrating.
[02:20]	IsambardPrince	I really did like how they did their Japanese Garden.
[02:21]	IsambardPrince	Many of the plants are appropriate, but some Japanese plants just won't grow in the US Midwest, so they used native plants and Japanese-style landscaping to fill in the gaps.
[02:23]	IsambardPrince	Japan doesn't have anything like the brutal extremes of a Chicago summer or winter.
[02:23]	IsambardPrince	It can get over 100 F in the summer and you can get 20-30 days like this if you're very unlucky that year.
[02:24]	IsambardPrince	And then in the winter it can drop to -30 F.
[02:24]	IsambardPrince	So there's a 130 F swing in the temperature some years.
[02:41]	IsambardPrince	I bought some of those huge glass "Voss" waters at Ross Dress For Less for like $1 just to have reusable glass water bottles.
[02:41]	IsambardPrince	At that price it was cheaper than buying a water bottle, which are usually made of plastic and impossible to sterilize.
[02:42]	IsambardPrince	I remember when my mother used to run my brother's baby bottles through the dishwasher. 
[02:43]	IsambardPrince	They had thrown out all of my glass baby bottles by that point and bought all new stuff for my brother, and by that point it was all plastic.
[02:44]	IsambardPrince	I remember you had to use the top rack and even then sometimes one would fall out onto the heating element for the dry cycle, or God help you, one of the "nipples" and of course those were rubber and they'd melt and stink up the entire house and you had to run around opening all the windows when that happened.
[02:45]	IsambardPrince	I mean, I had glass bottles and I lived.
[02:45]	IsambardPrince	I strongly prefer glass to plastic. Sometimes I peel the beer labels off of beer bottles and run them and repurpose them for drinking water.
[02:45]	IsambardPrince	I never, ever, buy beer in aluminum cans.
[02:45]	IsambardPrince	There are reasons.

[02:46]	IsambardPrince	It fucks up the taste, it gets cold fast, but the reverse of that is it gets warm fast, and halfway into your beer you have a room temperature beer. Trump put down aluminum tariffs that made ALL aluminum more expensive, and they have liners that leech things like Bisphenol A into the beer.

[02:48]	IsambardPrince	Metal cans are so bad that they gave rise to things like the "beer koozie".
[02:49]	IsambardPrince	Brian was always buying beer in cans and then cramming the cans into koozies.
[02:49]	IsambardPrince	It was so ridiculous. The beer koozie only exists because aluminum cans are the worst way to package a drink.

[02:50]	TR News	Yesterday's Tux Machines bulletin is now ready! : http://news.tuxmachines.org/txt-archives/tuxmachines-2026-09-01.txt
[02:51]	IsambardPrince	When I was a kid they were starting to phase out glass, but they had it. It was an option in every convenience store.
[02:51]	IsambardPrince	I know that glass bottles make the soda taste better.
[02:51]	IsambardPrince	They're supposedly going to make a Coke with real sugar in the US again, instead of High Fructose Corn Syrup, but I don't think HFCS is responsible for all of the taste problem. I think the can is equally to blame.
[02:53]	IsambardPrince	The Corn Growers Association is pissed off at Trump.
[02:53]	IsambardPrince	He got directly involved with Coke on reformulating it with real cane sugar.
[02:58]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2]: Looking at a catalog from the 90s with the launch price of the Nintendo 64.
[02:58]	IsambardPrince	$169.99 and it came with two controller.
[02:59]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: I mentioned to my dad that we've had over 50 major food recalls since Trump and RFK Jr. and DOGE and it's been about a year and a half.
[02:59]	IsambardPrince	I said there were only 2 during the entire 8 year of George W. Bush.

[03:19]	MinceR	lol
[03:19]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: Mom told me that when Brian's daughter Erica went to jail they went over there and cleaned out her apartment.
[03:19]	IsambardPrince	One of the things in the freezer was frozen salisbury steak.
[03:19]	IsambardPrince	I said "Well, as long as it wasn't Freezer Queen. Roaches in the gravy, you know."
[03:20]	IsambardPrince	She said "I don't know what it was but when I put it in the microwave it made the kitchen smell so bad I threw it in the trash.
[03:20]	MinceR	lol
[03:28]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: Speaking of roaches I just found another dead one.

[05:19]	IsambardPrince	"Compared with Piyush, Joy was just the warm up band. I guarantee you that Joy's brains are such complete shit that if I applied for that same apartment today she probably wouldn't remember me. She didn't remember my name when I was actively on the lease in 2019, why would she remember me at all in 2026?
[05:19]	IsambardPrince	Imagine shitting in a bucket while your apartment floods and the roaches have taken over and are going about their business at all hours of the day and night completely unfazed by humans and light. That's Piyush's building."

[23:01]	IsambardPrince	I think they're still talking about the Red Line expansion to 135th street. I lived on 67th street for a while and it was an absolute nightmare trying to get from there over to Ashland on the Orange Line. Even though you could get in a car and set your GPS and be there in a bit, when you relied on public transit, you actually had to go miles in the wrong direction on the Red Line after taking a bus over there that was 20-30 minutes 
[23:01]	IsambardPrince	just to get into the system, and then you had to spiral around and go back largely the direction you just came from on the Orange Line.
[23:01]	IsambardPrince	
[23:01]	IsambardPrince	The outer points of all the transit lines should be built to go to the end of the city limits, and then we need another line that loops around and connects the last stop on all the branches. We already have a "Loop" but that should be the "Inner Loop" and we need an Outer Loop line.
[23:13]	IsambardPrince	The pharmacies are already pestering me to get a flu shot.
[23:13]	IsambardPrince	They started at the end of July.
[23:14]	IsambardPrince	If you get a flu shot that early it will be wearing off by the time flu activity peaks in January.
[23:15]	IsambardPrince	Cook County Health Department begins doing flu shot clinics in October.
[23:15]	IsambardPrince	That's because if they start giving them out in July, August, or September, they will spend the same amount of public health money and there will be higher flu activity because the shots will have diminished significantly by the time flu season peaks.
[23:17]	IsambardPrince	Cook County runs its own hospital network.
[23:17]	IsambardPrince	They're usually hospitals that went ahead and failed because too many residents in that area are uninsured.
[23:17]	IsambardPrince	They really REALLY don't want lots of flu activity.
