IsambardPrinceTony mentioned how clean I keep my apartment. I was thinking yeah it's clean I knew this was coming.Aug 26 01:35
IsambardPrinceEveryone else got a 48 hour notice.Aug 26 01:35
IsambardPrinceMinceR: I told the guy that I was wondering if they were coming from the apartment behind my couch since that's where I was seeing them and set out the most bait.Aug 26 01:36
IsambardPrincehe said that guy's lived here for years and hasn't said anything. I said, "You'd be surprised how many people know there's roaches running around and just get used to it."Aug 26 01:37
MinceR:>Aug 26 01:40
*Received a CTCP VERSION from HarambeAug 26 01:40
IsambardPrinceMinceR: Moccamaster emailed me asking for a review and said they might share it.Aug 26 01:46
IsambardPrinceI replied:Aug 26 01:46
IsambardPrinceI purchased a Moccamaster KBGT on Amazon Warehouse Deals around the end of 2022. I had trouble with a sticking brew switch and finally the water reservoir cracked.Aug 26 01:47
IsambardPrinceWhen I emailed Moccamaster for assistance, they wanted me to spend another $100 to get it repaired and told me I also had no warranty because I got it from Amazon Warehouse Deals.Aug 26 01:47
IsambardPrinceIt was the most overpriced piece of crap I've ever bought as far as coffee makers and didn't last longer than the stuff they sell at Walmart. Aug 26 01:47
IsambardPrinceThe heating element was starting to go even though I always descaled it according to the instruction manual.Aug 26 01:47
IsambardPrinceI replaced it was a Cuisinart 14 cup machine I found at a Goodwill thrift store for $9.99 and have been much happier with that.Aug 26 01:47
IsambardPrinceMy regret is paying nearly $300 for the Moccamaster and finding the durability and support after the sale was lacking compared with a $20 Mainstays machine sold at every Walmart in the United States.Aug 26 01:47
IsambardPrinceYou totally have my permission to copy this review.Aug 26 01:47
IsambardPrinceMinceR: Kiki is a polydactyl cat.Aug 26 01:51
IsambardPrinceShe has an extra toe on both of her front paws.Aug 26 01:51
IsambardPrinceShe seems to have a Jekyll and Hyde personality.Aug 26 01:55
IsambardPrinceShe'll jump in your arms and just be the sweetest little kitty cat and then a switch flips and she tries to bite.Aug 26 01:55
IsambardPrinceI had a talk with Tony today.Aug 26 01:56
IsambardPrinceHe noticed that Kiki was new and asked if I had three cats now. I said, "No, it's still two. Leeloo passed away earlier this month and I had to have her put down. I have documentation about that from the animal hospital. Kiki is new and she's got a clean bill of health and everything and her rabies tag if you're interested in seeing it. I am paying for two cats, and I only have two cats.Aug 26 01:58
IsambardPrinceMy mom asked how I always get cats that don't destroy things and pee on the carpet and stuff. I said "I know what to look for in a cat's personality. How they approach me at the animal shelter clues me in a lot on how they'll behave at home."Aug 26 02:01
IsambardPrinceCapital One Shopping owes me over $110 in gift card money. I might just get a Chewy gift card and have them drop ship me some good pet food and litter.Aug 26 02:07
IsambardPrinceChewy has a promo spend $100 gt a $30 gift card so that gets me another $30.Aug 26 02:09
IsambardPrinceI know Roy likes taking care of birds.Aug 26 02:10
IsambardPrinceHousecat or not, they still hunt birds if they get a chance to.Aug 26 02:10
IsambardPrinceIt's just in their nature.Aug 26 02:10
IsambardPrinceA cat is an apex predator.Aug 26 02:10
MinceRlol @ reviewAug 26 02:10
IsambardPrinceMinceR: I try. :)Aug 26 02:11
MinceRyeah, they have a hunting instinctAug 26 02:11
MinceRalso, i suspect that hunting is their way of getting food that tastes sweet to themAug 26 02:11
IsambardPrinceIt's kind of odd that an apex predator would curl up and sleep next to me but it's basically a murder machine.Aug 26 02:12
MinceRthey can't taste what we taste as sweet, but they can taste ATP, so i suspect the same receptors have mutated to target ATP instead, so ATP would be sweetAug 26 02:12
MinceRand afaik the commercial cat foods don't contain ATP, neither do animals that have been dead for a whileAug 26 02:12
MinceRfresh kills do, thoughAug 26 02:12
MinceR26 031219 < IsambardPrince> It's kind of odd that an apex predator would curl up and sleep next to me but it's basically a murder machine.Aug 26 02:13

IsambardPrinceMinceR: I was working through The End of Oak Street.Aug 26 03:02
IsambardPrinceIf Jeanette didn't rush back and save herself, that version of herself would be sent 200 million years back in time and eventually also find the portal next to the librarian's house.Aug 26 03:02
IsambardPrinceThen that one would jump back 20 minutes before the wormhole opened up.Aug 26 03:03
IsambardPrinceAnd so on and so on.Aug 26 03:03
IsambardPrinceIf she rescued herself, it caps the number of Jeanettes at 2.Aug 26 03:03
IsambardPrinceIf she doesn't, eventually the sky just starts opening up and infinite Jeanettes come out of the portal because they all figure it out.Aug 26 03:03

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.theregister.com | Why you shouldn't trust a stranger's VPN: Plenty leak your IP addressesAug 26 03:04
IsambardPrinceMinceR: I think I'd just let the sky open up and start raining infinite versions of me.Aug 26 03:06
IsambardPrinceEarth would eventually look like the Citadel from Rick & Morty complete with a ruling council that's all me.Aug 26 03:06
MinceRand then it would collapse to form a black holeAug 26 03:07
MinceRbut at least it would contain the human infestationAug 26 03:07
IsambardPrinceMinceR: Some of me would be soldiers, some of them would be cops.Aug 26 03:07
IsambardPrinceI'd probably start liquidating some of the problem humans.Aug 26 03:08
IsambardPrincePrisoners, Republicans, those people.Aug 26 03:08
MinceRinitially only the biomass (including people, including copies of you) at the bottom would be crushed by the weight of all the biomass heaped on top of itAug 26 03:09
IsambardPrinceMinceR: At some point I'd pull the plug on the respawn glitch and just have the remaining people who are not me perform the role of the rest of society, outside government, military, and law enforcement.Aug 26 03:12
IsambardPrinceMinceR:  "I am the law!" literally.Aug 26 03:12
MinceRwhat is the timing of these bodies falling out of the sky, anyway?Aug 26 03:13
IsambardPrinceRoughly every 20 minutes.Aug 26 03:14
IsambardPrinceIt only takes 10 hours to get a billion versions of me coming out.Aug 26 03:15
IsambardPrinceBecause every version of me that decides not to help creates two more.Aug 26 03:15
IsambardPrince:)Aug 26 03:15
IsambardPrinceActually at 10 hours it's 1,073,741,824.Aug 26 03:16
IsambardPrinceThat  should be more than enough to fan out, take over the governments on the North American continent, and become the biggest nuclear power in the world.Aug 26 03:17
MinceRare you planning on winning fights solely relying on strength of numbers?Aug 26 03:18
IsambardPrinceYou could, sure.Aug 26 03:18
IsambardPrinceSince I am a gun owner, every me who survives is armed.Aug 26 03:18
IsambardPrinceThe wormhole copies the entire physical state of the neighborhood, including your property.Aug 26 03:19
IsambardPrinceSo it stands to reason that if every version of me ended up navigating through a prehistorical world of dinosaurs, they'd come through that portal with every gun I could carry to the portal back.Aug 26 03:19
MinceRstill, it seems like many of you would die painfullyAug 26 03:20
IsambardPrinceDuring the takeover?Aug 26 03:20
IsambardPrinceYeah, I mean we'd have to overrun all the police and the National Guard and stuff.Aug 26 03:21

IsambardPrinceBut with infinite backup, that would be a small hill to climb.Aug 26 03:21
IsambardPrinceThe National Guard and local police forces have limited ammunition, limited personnel, and families they want to get home to. They are fighting for survival; my army is fighting with an automated, infinite supply line. The psychological horror of fighting an enemy that literally never stops dropping out of the sky will break the military's resolve long before I would run out of numbers.Aug 26 03:23

IsambardPrinceMinceR: I like fighting dirty.Aug 26 03:29
IsambardPrinceI told my partner I "brought the hammer down" by reporting the cockroaches so that other tenants would get "minimal warning" and our apartment would be "squeaky clean" and "all I have to do is empty some cabinets".Aug 26 03:29
IsambardPrince"They'll march in there and take pictures of all the tenants who are living in filth who couldn't call off work and clean anything".Aug 26 03:30
IsambardPrince"They'll say the cockroaches are their fault, fine them, make them clean up the mess, and use that to pay for the exterminator."Aug 26 03:30

MinceR:>Aug 26 03:34
IsambardPrinceIt's like when he said "I can't believe this guy, grab him!" and it tried to shoot him in the head.Aug 26 03:35
IsambardPrinceSo he says "You can't go around killing people." so it switches to shooting them in the knees.Aug 26 03:35
IsambardPrincePresumably he gets a talking to for that, eventually he takes out a SWAT team without killing or maiming a single person.Aug 26 03:35
MinceRonce the T-800 isn't allowed to kill people, things get more interestingAug 26 03:36
IsambardPrinceIt is capable of learning, but you have to be very careful what you tell it to do.Aug 26 03:36
MinceRi can imagine things like it starting what seems like a murderous rampage in the building in order to scare away the humans so they don't get killedAug 26 03:36

IsambardPrinceMinceR: There's an easy way to prepare for the possibility that Trump's post office regulation against mail in voting is upheld.Aug 26 03:44
IsambardPrinceMail the ballots in plain envelopes so that the post office can't tell what's in them without opening them, which it can't do unless it has probable cause that a particular letter is affiliated with a crime.Aug 26 03:45
IsambardPrinceDon't put anything on the envelope indicating that it's a ballot.Aug 26 03:45
IsambardPrinceMinceR: I'll be returning my mail-in ballot to an official County Clerk drop box location.Aug 26 03:46
MinceRwon't the address give it away?Aug 26 03:46
IsambardPrinceThis bypasses the post office on the way back.Aug 26 03:46
IsambardPrinceMinceR: I was petting the cat going "Who's my sweet little apex predator? You are!"Aug 26 03:47
MinceR:>Aug 26 03:49
IsambardPrinceMinceR: There was apparently an alternate ending for The End of Oak Street where they jump into a portal and end up in the 1800s.Aug 26 03:54
IsambardPrinceI can see why they didn't go with that.Aug 26 03:54
IsambardPrinceThen the question goes "So why not do that Western Union thing from Back to the Future II and send a letter to yourself 100 years from now saying this thing is about to happen. Get out of there. BTW, here's some things only you know so you know I'm not bullshitting you."Aug 26 03:55

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2]: Pfizer advertised that they want people for an experimental Pneumonia vaccine.Aug 26 04:57
IsambardPrinceWhat would that be for? We already have ones that are FDA approved.Aug 26 04:58
IsambardPrinceIf it's just adding more strains to the existing Prevnar 20 shot, meh, maybe.Aug 26 04:58
IsambardPrinceBut if it's mRNA you can count me out.Aug 26 04:58
IsambardPrinceI'm just extremely skeptical of the mRNA platform. It just doesn't seem to produce any sort of immunity at least as far as COVID went. It developed an immune response to something that resembled the spike protein.Aug 26 04:59
IsambardPrinceBut nothing that resembled a whole virus.Aug 26 04:59
IsambardPrinceSometimes you don't need immunity to the whole virus, like that's how Hepatitis B shots work, but then again, sometimes you do.Aug 26 05:00
IsambardPrinceBecause it turns out that the spike protein with COVID-19 is the part that mutates most rapidly.Aug 26 05:00
IsambardPrinceYou "vaccinate" with something and by the time it's on the shelf the spike protein in the wild has mutated a lot.Aug 26 05:01

IsambardPrinceThat's what my partner took.Aug 26 05:08
IsambardPrinceI told him respiratory disease gets really bad here in the winter.Aug 26 05:08

IsambardPrinceI said "The government pays the whole bill because she's old while she says nobody else should have any healthcare at all."Aug 26 05:09
IsambardPrinceAnyway, I say "my partner" because when I mentioned my spouse's name, those criminals posted things about him that were not true.Aug 26 05:10
IsambardPrinceLike Lobster, who is a precedent in Canada for when something is so outrageous the HRTO wants to dismiss it immediately so they don't waste tax money on it.Aug 26 05:11
IsambardPrinceThis is fraudulent daylight abuse of an institution that's meant to enforce civil rights laws.Aug 26 05:11
IsambardPrinceFrom what I've seen wading through their published opinions, approximately 70-80% of what gets filed there is garbage and gets dismissed.Aug 26 05:11
IsambardPrinceAnd they have to pay people to look into that and walk it through a process.Aug 26 05:12
