| IsambardPrince | I did some spot cleaning and refreshed some of my cockroach traps. | Aug 15 01:30 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR: I think most of them were coming in under the doors. | Aug 15 01:30 |
| IsambardPrince | So the sweeps I installed might cut them off from reinforcements. | Aug 15 01:31 |
| MinceR | i wonder why docker is such a gigantic pile of shit | Aug 15 01:32 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR: Discover (before Capital One) would renegotiate card terms if you hinted that you were threatening to refinance somewhere else. | Aug 15 01:35 |
| IsambardPrince | Capital One goes full Palpatine on you. | Aug 15 01:35 |
| IsambardPrince | "Do it!" | Aug 15 01:35 |
| IsambardPrince | They aren't negotiating anything with anyone. If you got a Capital One card with bad credit they always service it like you still have bad credit, for the life of the account. | Aug 15 01:36 |
| IsambardPrince | It doesn't matter what they'd give you with the credit rating you have now. | Aug 15 01:36 |
| MinceR | and of course all the alleged 'alternatives' just pile more hacks on top of docker | Aug 15 01:38 |
| IsambardPrince | I don't like containers. | Aug 15 01:39 |
| IsambardPrince | They're trying to misuse them in personal computing contexts that they don't belong in. | Aug 15 01:39 |

| IsambardPrince | MinceR: I caught another cockroach. | Aug 15 04:19 |
| IsambardPrince | The Chicago Apartment Special. | Aug 15 04:19 |
| IsambardPrince | It was a smokey brown. | Aug 15 04:19 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2]: Yes, I smoked it. | Aug 15 04:20 |
| IsambardPrince | You just stomp on the trap and toss it in the garbage, got get a new trap. | Aug 15 04:20 |
| MinceR | ssssssssssssssssssssmokin'! | Aug 15 04:20 |
| IsambardPrince | I hate roaches. | Aug 15 04:20 |
| IsambardPrince | This is the third apartment in a row. | Aug 15 04:21 |
| IsambardPrince | They're in almost every multifamily building. | Aug 15 04:21 |
| IsambardPrince | About the only thing you can do about it is try to suppress them. | Aug 15 04:21 |
| IsambardPrince | The big exterminator companies will happily take your money and lie to you and say they'll get rid of them. | Aug 15 04:22 |
| IsambardPrince | Then $800 later you still have cockroaches. | Aug 15 04:22 |
| IsambardPrince | If you're only treating one unit in an infested building, about all you can do is keep a lid on them. | Aug 15 04:22 |
| IsambardPrince | You're almost as well off with a contractor pack of sticky traps and a bottle of spray from almart. | Aug 15 04:38 |
| IsambardPrince | *Walmart | Aug 15 04:38 |
| IsambardPrince | They'll come out and here's the thing. | Aug 15 04:39 |
| IsambardPrince | They want you on "EASY PAY" so you think oh $53 a month. | Aug 15 04:39 |
| IsambardPrince | Then they only come every two months. | Aug 15 04:39 |
| IsambardPrince | So you're really paying them $106 every visit. | Aug 15 04:39 |
| IsambardPrince | Orkin rations everything. | Aug 15 04:42 |
| IsambardPrince | They toss out like 8 glue traps. | Aug 15 04:42 |
| IsambardPrince | So while I was paying Orkin to "handle the roaches" I was still investing my money in roach control products. | Aug 15 04:43 |
| IsambardPrince | They stick like 6 of them around the kitchen and maybe a couple behind the toilet in the bathroom. | Aug 15 04:45 |
| IsambardPrince | This will catch a few roaches, but you could easily triple the kill count by expanding to 40 traps around the place. | Aug 15 04:46 |
| IsambardPrince | I have so many around my house, wherever the roach walks down a wall, it eventually dies. | Aug 15 04:47 |
| IsambardPrince | I've been getting like 0-2 roaches per day on average. | Aug 15 04:47 |
| IsambardPrince | If I did what Orkin does I might catch 2-3 per week. | Aug 15 04:47 |
| IsambardPrince | That's the difference between keeping a lid on them and catching a few to show a customer. | Aug 15 04:47 |
| IsambardPrince | You're gonna be in a holding pattern with the roaches whether you DIY or call Orkin, so you might as well do it yourself for $100 worth of stuff as pay Orkin $800 that year. | Aug 15 04:50 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | I don't know how this company has come this far with how its management works. They had us working overtime almost every day, most weekends, during plane rides, during family events, all to hit the unreasonable targets they themselves sold. They told us to go above and beyond because it would help us get promoted, and now all promotions are being delayed? | Aug 15 05:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | The stock crash caused by tech sales is impacting consulting employees? What kind of BS is that? Since when has this company ever given a shit about the consulting practice anyway? | Aug 15 05:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | In return for the countless hours I gave this company, they gave me the gift of a pushed-back promotion because Wall Street didn't like our numbers. We still turned a profit in Q2. We can't use a little bit of that to reward the employees who worked their asses off? All of this so the executives can still get their bonuses and stock rewards at the end of the year. | Aug 15 05:54 |

| lxo | schestowitz[TR2], I haven't port-scanned your server, but having tried the smtp port just now, it seems to be blocked from Tor exit nodes as well. it's not usual for email to be delivered through Tor, but exit nodes may be gratuitously affected. if you ran securedrop, it would be affected because of http/https. but it seems more likely that the block is IP address-based, rather than to specific protocols | Aug 15 19:38 |

| bms | I got a shipment of ~30 butane canisters to run my stove and heater from Emporio Bezos, only to find the seller had their own site (but it's a little shonky, they use a personal GMail account, billing is via PayPal, so Thiel ends up with yer dox) | Aug 15 23:49 |
| bms | the price is practically exactly the same, and they charged delivery anyway, on top of the Prime I already have for the moment. I think I'm going to quit Amazon soon | Aug 15 23:50 |
