[01:38] DaemonFC One of the problems with "atomic clock" stuff is that if it can't get a signal (many areas can't) you have to set it yourself anyway. [01:39] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], I had a computer that became unstable and started kernel panicking all the time about 16-17 years ago? [01:39] DaemonFC It drove me nuts. Kept getting worse and worse. [01:39] DaemonFC I checked for bad memory. I did a lot of things. Reset the BIOS.... [01:40] DaemonFC Nothing worked.

[06:00] DaemonFC That Impala was a real nightmare. [06:01] DaemonFC It took its damned sweet time heating up, and I figured it was old coolant or something and I had it flushed. Didn't help much. It's not that the car had NO heat. It would eventually get just as hot as the Buick or Crown Victoria, but it took longer. I even got in there and changed out the thermostat in case the old one was getting slow or something. [06:03] DaemonFC You give the Buick just 5-6 minutes of idling and the heater is running at 72 degrees already. [06:03] DaemonFC If you give it 15 minutes, you get maxed out at like 96 F.

Layoffs at Microsoft and severe cuts on spendings, according to insiders https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1jEgCUWk#replies [11:27] TR Bot Next rounds of layoffs have begun - post regarding Microsoft Corp. layoffs [11:30] DaemonFC "Holding the right button for 3 seconds in the main timekeeping mode leads the display to show "CASIo", which is useful to spot a counterfeit model (applicable for newer models of the F-91W and its variants, including F-94W and A158W)" [11:30] DaemonFC There's a counterfeit for a $10 watch? [11:31] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], The replica Rolex watches have gotten really good. [11:31] DaemonFC For $150 or so, you can wear something that looks like a $15,000 Rolex. [11:32] DaemonFC It's because it's not all that difficult for the clone manufacturers to pull off. [11:32] DaemonFC It's all made in China. [11:32] schestowitz[TR] but so what? [11:32] schestowitz[TR] if you buy just a brand? [11:32] DaemonFC An expert could look at it with a magnifying glass and tell you it's fake if they inspect it closely enough. [11:32] DaemonFC But they even managed to replicate the movement. [11:33] schestowitz[TR] you can also buy 'fake' diamonds [11:33] DaemonFC Well, the reason DHS hits these counterfeits so hard is they're really good quality and they're not expensive. [11:33] schestowitz[TR] Homeland Security? [11:33] DaemonFC So the rich people are horrified that people who didn't pay a fortune can go around with all this nice looking stuff. [11:33] schestowitz[TR] are those clocks for bombs? [11:33] DaemonFC Yeah. [11:33] DaemonFC are those clocks for bombs? [11:33] DaemonFC The fake Rolex? [11:34] DaemonFC No. [11:34] schestowitz[TR] DHS [11:34] DaemonFC Even the fakes are pretty nice most of the time. [11:34] DaemonFC Someone put in a lot of work to copy it and they really only miss some of the very fine details, many of which Rolex themselves use only to help spot fakes. [11:36] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], Rolex dealers treat the customers like shit. [11:36] DaemonFC They prioritize celebrities and politicians and just tell other people to get lost, even if they can pay the asking price then and there, in cash. [11:37] DaemonFC They don't even return their phone calls or they say they want to get to know you before you're allowed to pay $15,000 for a watch. [11:37] DaemonFC Yes, "get to know you" so you can buy a watch. [11:38] schestowitz[TR] that is another thing [11:38] schestowitz[TR] they carefully control who is "allowed" to have one [11:38] schestowitz[TR] to guard the "image [11:38] schestowitz[TR] oir perceived prestige [11:38] schestowitz[TR] they claim to have shortages [11:38] schestowitz[TR] and "waiting lists" [11:38] schestowitz[TR] as if they cannot manufacture more [11:39] schestowitz[TR] it's obviously a scam [11:39] schestowitz[TR] burberry burns its own products [11:39] schestowitz[TR] when they cannot sell the excess stock [11:39] schestowitz[TR] for fear it would be sold to the "wrong hands" [11:39] schestowitz[TR] on the cheap [11:39] schestowitz[TR] and the "cheapen" the brand [11:39] schestowitz[TR] capitalism: we burn deluxe products to keep their prices his [11:39] schestowitz[TR] like amazon burying returned items [11:39] schestowitz[TR] to save money [11:40] schestowitz[TR] instead of giving them away or something [11:43] DaemonFC for fear it would be sold to the "wrong hands" [11:43] DaemonFC So the chavs come along and wear knockoffs. [11:43] DaemonFC :) [11:44] DaemonFC like amazon burying returned items [11:44] DaemonFC They had a Used - Like New Casio watch of the model I bought but it's only 1% less expensive in Warehouse Deals. [11:44] DaemonFC Casio only honors the warranty if you buy from an authorized reseller. [11:45] DaemonFC So if you save the $2, you lose the one year warranty. [11:45] DaemonFC And you potentially get a defective watch someone sent back. [11:46] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], Apparently, the $10-15 Casio F91-W series is counterfeited all the time on places like ebay and Amazon third party sellers. [11:46] DaemonFC But there's a good reason. [11:47] DaemonFC The counterfeiters can bring it down to $5 and sell you a watch that's not built very well and has a lot of bugs and just ride on the notion that Casio makes good watches at a decent price. [11:47] DaemonFC they claim to have shortages [11:47] DaemonFC and "waiting lists" [11:47] DaemonFC Car companies do this too now, with EVs. [11:48] DaemonFC as if they cannot manufacture more [11:48] DaemonFC They could easily manufacture more if they would stop changing up their watch designs every year for no reason.

[22:22] DaemonFC It was a nice enough model that I didn't want the other kids at school to steal it and argue it was theirs at the principal's office, because I'd actually had that happen already before with a pair of gloves. [22:22] DaemonFC They stole MY gloves and then I got in trouble for taking them back. [22:23] DaemonFC So I took the watch down to Phil Clanin's store in Marion and had him engrave the back of the watch "Property of RYAN FARMER" and had him change the wrist band. [22:23] DaemonFC It never got stolen at school, but I figured $5 for an engravement was worth having them explain why they had a watch with "RYAN FARMER" etched into it if we got to the office. [22:25] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2], My track record for finding things on the ground at Disney is pretty good. [22:25] DaemonFC I found a $100, a $50, a $20, and two watches (not on the same visit). [22:25] DaemonFC Probably together worth more than the tickets to get into the park back then. [22:26] DaemonFC They hadn't gone completely insane yet where they said "Oh, people will probably pay $8,000 to stay here for two weeks during a recession, right? Stand in line all day under the sun while fist fights break out because of the ghetto people who put it on their Credit One card.". [22:27] DaemonFC Back then pretty much everone could go to Disney and not bankrupt themselves. Times were just different. [22:28] DaemonFC And yeah, it cost a bunch to get in, but by a bunch I mean you could go and grab tickets for like $80-90 a day which was on the high side for a theme park, but.... [22:28] DaemonFC It wasn't like it is now. [22:29] DaemonFC $300 just to get in, and then the "park hopper" is an upsell, and then if you don't want to stand in line for an hour per thing, you gotta pay another $50 for a "line hopper" to stand in a shorter line behind the people who bought that. [22:29] DaemonFC The "line hopper" alone was nearly the entire cost of a basic one park ticket back then! [22:29] DaemonFC They didn't have line hopper back then. [22:30] DaemonFC You went and you stood in line like everyone else. [22:30] DaemonFC When it was your turn, you got on the ride. [22:31] DaemonFC I thought Disney World was pretty cool back then, as a kid. They really did go all out to make it immersive, and was it worth the cost? Meh, if you had some disposable income, maybe. [22:31] DaemonFC But I'm NOT paying $8,000 to go to Disney. No way, no how. [22:31] DaemonFC If it cost anything like that back then, we'd have never seen Disney, much less like 4 times. [22:32] DaemonFC You know how cheap my dad is. He wouldn't buy a new computer for his wife until Windows 98 couldn't be made to run ANYTHING anymore, even with KernelEx, which I told him how to use, so she was in there stuck with the same computer for 15 years. [22:33] DaemonFC She still drives a 2000 Chevy Impala. It had 600,000 miles on it the last time I asked. [22:33] DaemonFC $8,000 Disney would have meant no Disney. [22:34] DaemonFC I remembered him complaining that.....it cost him about $1,000 for all four of us to go one time, and we spent the first week at Disney and the second week just as tourists falling into all the tourist traps in Miami. [22:35] DaemonFC My Aunt was flying her family down there and spending beaucoup bucks staying at Disney resorts, and my dad put us all in the car and drove down there and back. Why not? This was back when you could take 3-4 WEEKS of paid vacation from your job each year and nobody minded. [22:35] DaemonFC You had timne to putter along in the car cross country. [22:36] DaemonFC He had us staying in a KOA Kampground. (One K short of being the KKK? And that was about the way I'd describe most of the folks staying there.)

[22:44] DaemonFC When they bought a house in 1980, they didn't get hurt much by Fed rates at 20%, because the entire house was only $16,000. [22:44] DaemonFC When mom went to nursing school in '81, she didn't need a loan because $1,000 covered the entire year. [22:44] DaemonFC When my dad had a career at RCA, they gave him a month off work, paid vacation, typical.

[22:50] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [22:50] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [22:50] DaemonFC If my mom didn't break the marriage with my dad, the last time she would have had to rent _anything_ would have been an apartment from a senile old school teacher in the late 1970s for $50 a month, utilities included. [22:50] DaemonFC Now she too can have a absentee landlord in Florida who raises her rent $200 every year and is so incompetent he exploded his own plumbing and made it rain hydrochloric acid (basically Breaking Bad without the body in the tub) into her kitchen.

[22:50] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [22:50] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [22:50] DaemonFC Another of "mom's landlord's greatest hits" is he keeps buying new dishwashers that aren't any good instead of getting a Maytag (which is the only brand left that still works). She's on her fourth one and he still won't listen as to why the Frigidaire models keep breaking down. [22:50] DaemonFC She told him that her dryer wasn't working, so he sent the guy who watches YouTube videos over to fix it, and he replaced a $250 part....on the washing machine, which was working fine, and now it's stuck on boiling lava. [22:52] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [22:52] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [22:52] DaemonFC After the washer incident, mom's so scared that the landlord will send YouTube Guy back that instead of telling her landlord that the stupid ass broke the washer and it's stuck on scalding water, she brings the shower head over and uses that to fill the basin up so it doesn't ruin all of her clothes. [22:56] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [22:56] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [22:56] DaemonFC Mom's landlord totally ignores all of his text messages from her. [22:56] DaemonFC She told him repeatedly that the boiler system that runs the building's heat konked out and he just left her without heat, so she bought an electric fireplace space heater. When he came up and found out, he was pissed, and said he was raising her rent again because she ran that instead of telling him it was broken. [22:56] DaemonFC Meanwhile, he's busy buying up entire towns... 1/2 [22:56] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [22:56] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [22:56] DaemonFC I told mom to call the electric company and ask what the bill averages for that apartment over the past year because she's thinking about renting it. [22:56] DaemonFC The landlord told her she was using "at least $255 of electricity every month". [22:56] DaemonFC She's lived there for several years, but she finally did what I told her to and they said the 12 month average was $140 a month. [22:56] DaemonFC Whenever he spends money and talks about it, divide it by at least half and that's how much he really spent. I used to rent from him. 2/2 [22:58] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [22:58] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [22:58] DaemonFC The landlords claim they provide housing, but what they really mean is that they throw a coat of paint on it between renters as it accumulates wear and tear and turns into an even bigger dump for the next person, while they jack up the rent. [22:58] DaemonFC Illinois was considering a law that caps rent increases to what inflation is actually running, but like everything else in this state, the landlords formed a lobbying group and bribed the politicians and the bill never came up again.

It's called Coventry, and it was annexed in 2000. [23:02] DaemonFC The Republicans figured it would secure the mayor's office forever, but then the white people escaped further out into the county, and working class people moved in. [23:02] DaemonFC The nice movie theater and apartments they built for the upper middle class went to pot and now you get leaky roofs and a dollar cinema. 1/2 [23:02] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [23:02] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [23:02] DaemonFC Coventry also turned into an electoral disaster for the Republicans who annexed it. [23:02] DaemonFC After the failed attempt at White Flight and then securing the Republican voters that lived out there, what they got were a bunch more Democrats and the mayor's office flipped and hasn't gone back sense. The Council moved slower, but eventually went that way. [23:02] DaemonFC I checked out some of the apartments with my ex, but they have mold, leaky roofs, pet accidents all over carpet, wildlife problems with fireplaces. 2/2 [23:03] DaemonFC *since [23:04] DaemonFC After Coventry, the Republicans who are left on the City Council have been actively fighting off any more annexation attempts. [23:04] DaemonFC But I don't think they have the numbers to block it now. Iirc, the Democrats took the At-Large seats and if they want a land grab now there's really nobody that can fight them on it. [23:05] DaemonFC The only risk is that if you annex people who don't want it, they can now vote in the city elections. [23:05] DaemonFC The result is that Fort Wayne is a weird place. [23:05] DaemonFC The city stops but then you don't know it stops because it still looks like you're in the city, but you're in the county. [23:06] DaemonFC One of the most common complaints about annexation I've heard is that people who already put in a septic system and a well don't want to be forcibly connected to city utilities and then have to dig all of that back out again. [23:07] DaemonFC The city doesn't want to pay for it, because it would have to come out of the general fund, or they'd have to sell bonds to do it and jack up existing rates. [23:11] DaemonFC If the government was smarter, it would allow them to drain the septic system, fill it with cement, and then cap it and just leave it buried out there.

[23:18] DaemonFC But it turns out there are always "shortages" and "wait lists" so that "not just anyone" can go in there and pay $15,000 for a watch, even if they have the money. [23:18] DaemonFC Part of the marketing is this notion of scarcity and exclusivity. It's not just the price. [23:18] DaemonFC They want "certain people" to be seen wearing their products.

[23:28] DaemonFC They even know who you're ****ing on Grindr, which is why Grindr is on the stock market now. [23:28] DaemonFC Have fun with that. [23:30] MinceR a quartz watch is even more precise [23:31] MinceR and one with time synchronization even more so [23:31] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [23:31] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [23:31] DaemonFC @Cleopatra [23:31] DaemonFC Some of the Rolex watches, they won't even tell you what the price is without "building a relationship" with you first. [23:31] DaemonFC They don't want the market to know what a new one costs so that the market won't know what a used one should cost should you ever decide to sell it. [23:31] MinceR but fetishists of overprices watches don't like to admit this :> [23:31] DaemonFC It wouldn't surprise me if to buy the watch, part of the "relationship" is signing a NDA (gag agreement) forbidding you from ever revealing what you bought it for. [23:31] MinceR s/ces/ced/ [23:31] DaemonFC MinceR, Well, you buy a Rolex, now what? [23:31] DaemonFC You live in Chicago or another dangerous Democrat city. [23:32] DaemonFC Are you ever going to wear it in public? Get on the L with it? [23:32] DaemonFC The minute anyone sees you with a Rolex on, you get a gun in the face and no more Rolex. And then they're elite and you're crying at the police station? [23:32] MinceR lol [23:33] DaemonFC I mean, this is how Bruce Wayne's parents got killed at the beginning of every Batman story. [23:34] DaemonFC The only safe place to wear a Rolex is in a small town where everyone has a FOID card and holds the door. [23:35] DaemonFC Which is ironic. Not many people own a Rolex there, but they know right from wrong and don't prey on each other like people in cities do. [23:35] DaemonFC mjg59_, ^ [23:35] MinceR https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2022/11/04/a-malevolent-banquet [23:35] TR Bot A Malevolent Banquet - Penny Arcade [23:35] DaemonFC Are you taking notes there, buddy? [23:36] MinceR how could he use these lines against you? [23:36] DaemonFC That's the funny part. I don't really give a shit, but he thinks I do, I guess? [23:37] DaemonFC City people are wicked. Like, if one of them sees a 16 year old girl and they want to fuck her on the bike trail, out comes the gun and they rape her on the bike trail. Happened last week in Waukegan and they only solved it because the guy was already in CODIS (DNA) for a gun felony and left a public hair for them to find. [23:38] DaemonFC And if they ever let him out again, it'll just be another little girl raped on the bike trail because these people can't be taught anything. [23:39] DaemonFC If you care about right and wrong. If you have any sense of morality at all, you won't have 8 pages of felonies and certainly none will be raping a girl on the bike trail. [23:39] DaemonFC And you notice he had a gun, MinceR [23:39] DaemonFC You can't have a gun with a prior felony! [23:39] DaemonFC Every Democrat learns this. [23:40] MinceR lol [23:40] DaemonFC It works as well as those Gun Free Zone stickers. [23:40] DaemonFC They send you to the Phantom Zone and eject you out into space if you even try to bring a gun into a shopping mall. [23:40] DaemonFC mjg59_ Super Genius [23:40] MinceR that's insufficient [23:41] MinceR the gun should fall through your hands as if you were a ghost if you have a felony on your record [23:42] DaemonFC Ryan Farmer-Alcaraz [23:42] DaemonFC @DaemonFC [23:42] DaemonFC @Cleopatra [23:42] DaemonFC Comcast is blaming cable TV subscriber loss on Hurricane Ian. [23:42] DaemonFC They were losing 2.2 million per year over the past 10 years on average. [23:42] DaemonFC Hurricane Ian was happening a lot, you know. That specific Hurricane keeps coming back every 3 months, damn it.
