01:38 MinceR; we really need a better way to block Tor
01:40 DaemonFC; Block all of the listed exit nodes.
01:41 DaemonFC; It probably won't stop Human Fly but it'll slow him down.
01:41 DaemonFC; Should also block Mibbit.
01:42 MinceR; yeah, but there are blocklists for that
01:42 MinceR; also there are bots that scan clients on connects and ban them if they run an open proxy
01:42 MinceR; i mean, there are DNSRBL-s for Tor
01:42 MinceR; you just do a DNS lookup on the address and you know if it's an exit node
01:43 MinceR; or rather, on a modified form of the address
01:45 DaemonFC; Libera Chat is using DroneBL.
01:45 DaemonFC; That would also slow him down. It blocks a lot of VPN servers too.
01:45 DaemonFC; But it would also affect me.
01:47 MinceR; the idea is, we wouldn't block Tor all the time
01:48 MinceR; only when there's an attack going on

05:39 schestowitz; blood pressure pills are not expensive
05:39 schestowitz; also quite useless unless you have a condition

05:42 DaemonFC; Mom backed the car up over a curb today (the 2003 Impala).
05:43 DaemonFC; She knocked the muffler loose and they had to weld it this time.
05:43 DaemonFC; I wish I had just kept that one. It was freaking me out because it would do weird electrical shit that nobody could figure out.
05:43 DaemonFC; Like, the car acted like the alternator would just turn off, and then several seconds later come back on again.
05:44 DaemonFC; So I had it load tested and they said it was working fine.
05:44 DaemonFC; The Buick didn't look like it was going to be a problem car.
05:45 DaemonFC; The only thing I noticed wrong with it was "This lady hasn't flushed her coolant in a while. I suppose I'll need to have it flushed."
05:45 DaemonFC; Well, it's been flushed, three times.
05:45 DaemonFC; Mmm, well, it's not poo water anymore, but...
05:46 DaemonFC; I doubt I'm ever going to put coolant in it that doesn't look dirty a few hundred miles later.
05:46 DaemonFC; Once a coolant system has been neglected to a certain point all you can do is flush it until it's as good as it'll get unless you want to start talking about a new radiator, hoses, and heater core.

05:54 DaemonFC; I don't have the most modern tech in the Buick but I'm religious about "If it don't say dexos 1 gen 3 on the bottle, it's not going in there."
05:55 DaemonFC; And everyone has a full synth oil with that now. Walmart's Super Tech has three versions that all say dexos 1 gen 3 on the bottle.
05:55 DaemonFC; You see that, you know it's not crap. And GM gives them surprise audits and can take away their license for putting that on the bottle.
05:56 DaemonFC; They go in and buy bottles of it every so often and send it to the lab to see if their lawyers need to be in touch with the oil company. :)
05:57 DaemonFC; So I would say that if you drive a Honda, a Toyota, a Ford, a Chrysler, whatever, look for GM's oil certification, because it's more stringent on all points than any other manufacturer that I know of.
05:57 DaemonFC; These modern engines are super finicky. It does not take much to screw them up. The older cars were a lot more forgiving. You could almost go into the store and buy whatever you wanted and never have an engine problem.
05:58 DaemonFC; Like, GM used to spec 10w40 on the engine I have. Then they specced 5w30. I know a lot of people who use anything from 0w30, 5w30, 10w30, 0w40 through 10w40, and the engine just simply doesn't care too much.
05:59 DaemonFC; These new engines that say use 0w16, you use anything else it'll blow up.
05:59 schestowitz; gonna check for typos
05:59 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 34.13 k/sec., IPFS upstream 215.23 average k/sec., average swarm size 0
05:59 DaemonFC; I usually grab 5w30 for the warmer months because it's not an odd viscosity rating.

06:00 schestowitz; "Clown windows"
06:00 schestowitz; :)
06:00 schestowitz; Ballmer jumping up and down
06:00 schestowitz; maybe too much crack
06:00 DaemonFC; Then near the middle of December I'm in there paying eight bucks a quart for 0w30 before the "Fahrenheit and Celsius are the same!" days start.
06:01 DaemonFC; Because I noticed with the Impala and the Buick they both made a hell of a lot of noise on those days.
06:01 DaemonFC; And what that is, is the oil taking longer to get to the top of the engine.
06:01 DaemonFC; So they almost sound like "NoooooOOOOOOOO!!!!!" and then they calm down.
06:01 DaemonFC; But if you switch to 0w30 before those days roll around, they fire right up and sound perfect.
06:02 DaemonFC; But then you want to get another oil change around the end of May before it gets super hot again.
06:02 DaemonFC; So you _can_ run 5w30 year round but it's not a terrific option for this part of the country.
06:03 DaemonFC; If I moved a few hundred more miles north I'd give up and go 0w30 all the time.

06:04 DaemonFC; Most people with legacy programs are just holding out with whatever version of Windows it works on for a long time.
06:04 schestowitz; *sniff
06:04 DaemonFC; I know people still using Windows XP in their business.
06:05 DaemonFC; Because of one program that will cost them a $50,000 machine.
06:05 DaemonFC; So they keep XP on there and don't connect it to the Internet.
06:06 DaemonFC; schestowitz Car-X got fucked real bad recently by Snap-On and Microsoft.
06:06 DaemonFC; They had a car alignment machine that ran on Windows XP take a dump on them and they can't even re-install the Snap-On program because it's time bombed.
06:06 DaemonFC; The only reason it had been running is Snap-On's activation server was still running.
06:07 DaemonFC; So Snap-On, with no warning, took it down, and none of those shops have an alignment machine anymore until their "vendor" gets around to them.

06:47 schestowitz; the mortgages in SF are insane

06:50 DaemonFC; Why is DrGulag creating accounts just to call me a schizophrenic.
06:50 DaemonFC; It seems like he's got too much time to sit around on the evil coffee letting me live rent-free in his head.
06:51 DaemonFC; schestowitz He probably did have a high income for a while.
06:51 DaemonFC; Like an idiot, blew threw it all and a lot more (debt).
06:51 DaemonFC; Drugs are not cheap.
06:51 DaemonFC; When you start needing them just to get through the day they're not cheap.
06:52 DaemonFC; schestowitz Word starts getting around when you make trouble at all your employers and creep people out and then you don't have any good references. Like, people start to say things like "You didn't hear this from me but that guy is a freak.".
06:52 DaemonFC; Then places you apply for work don't call you back, so you blame it all on your own bad behavior that someone talked about.

06:53 schestowitz; he envies that
06:53 DaemonFC; He envies that the only problem I have is the door locks on the Buick needing fixed (tomorrow).
06:53 schestowitz; he poor-shames me

06:55 schestowitz; yes, he also does not like me ebing productive
06:55 schestowitz; 401 blog posts last month
06:55 schestowitz; he kept taunting me
06:56 schestowitz; then flooding irc to slow me down
06:56 DaemonFC; It's expensive to fix those power locks.
06:56 DaemonFC; Each one of them is like $500 at the dealer.
06:56 schestowitz; he's too stoned to write anything in his blog
06:56 schestowitz; power locks sucks
06:56 DaemonFC; Because it's the dealer ($250 an hour labor and double the price for the actuator servo as the parts store).
06:56 schestowitz; like windows
06:56 schestowitz; those used to be possible to fix
06:56 DaemonFC; schestowitz Yeah. Car-X can do it for a lot less.
06:56 schestowitz; you remove a panel from inside the car
06:56 schestowitz; with a screw driver
06:57 schestowitz; repair or replace some parts
06:57 DaemonFC; Hector told me to bring him some actuators from Autozone and so they'll just bill me the labor hours.
06:57 schestowitz; the downside was that you could not "roll down" the windows at the back from the driver'/'s seat
06:57 schestowitz; but you seldon need to do that anyway
06:57 DaemonFC; schestowitz Power locks are supposed to last 77,000 cycles.
06:57 schestowitz; yoiu usualyl have passengers at the backl if that was needed
06:57 DaemonFC; But in actuality a lot of people just have them fail one after the other.
06:58 schestowitz; today's new cars might last 10 years at most
06:58 DaemonFC; schestowitz Well, it's frustrating, because to make sure the car is locked you need to push both the posts down. Then hit the lock button.
06:58 schestowitz; then they are just worthless
06:58 schestowitz; even their parts are no good for spares
06:58 schestowitz; too proprietary and "old"
06:58 schestowitz; so you end up with quick erosion of value
06:58 schestowitz; like today'ss snew "build" homes

08:18 schestowitz; iirc, they did "alternative" treatments
08:18 schestowitz; i.e.. fleecing
08:19 DaemonFC; Yeah, they did actual cancer stuff but they were no better than any legitimate cancer treatment center.
08:19 DaemonFC; They cost a lot and they told patients they should do all this woo woo stuff that just ran the meter while they died of cancer.
08:19 DaemonFC; They got bought out by "City of Hope".
08:19 schestowitz; it's cheaper to get fakes
08:19 DaemonFC; That was when MARISOL got ousted.

08:21 DaemonFC; "Is City of Hope as bad as Cancer Treatment Centers of America was about the woo woo crap?"
08:21 DaemonFC; "No, City of Hope is not as bad as Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) when it comes to "woo woo crap." CTCA has been criticized for its promotion of unproven and potentially harmful alternative treatments, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy and chelation therapy. City of Hope, on the other hand, is a leading cancer research and treatment center that focuses on evidence-based medicine.
08:22 DaemonFC; In 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning letter to CTCA for making false and misleading claims about its treatments. The FDA found that CTCA was promoting unproven treatments as "cures" for cancer, and that it was making false claims about the safety and effectiveness of these treatments.
08:22 DaemonFC; City of Hope has not been accused of making any of these same claims. In fact, City of Hope's website specifically states that it "does not offer unproven or alternative cancer treatments." City of Hope's focus is on providing patients with the best possible evidence-based care.
08:22 DaemonFC; If you are considering treatment at City of Hope, you can be confident that you will be receiving care from a team of experts who are committed to providing you with the best possible treatment options." -Google BARD
08:26 DaemonFC; schestowitz I like to consider myself, not a scientist so much as a person who has a scientific mind. I don't like to take people's word on things.
08:26 DaemonFC; I was having a discussion with one of GULAG's puppets about motor oil.
08:26 schestowitz; crackpot matt
08:26 DaemonFC; It's a science but they won't let you see it.
08:27 DaemonFC; Like, there's a lot of motor oil companies that have a lot of scientists researching how to deal with the various problems in order to get the certifications.
08:27 DaemonFC; But then they go to the consumer and just use all sorts of idiotic statements on the bottle.
08:27 DaemonFC; "It's not oil, it's liquid engineering!"
08:28 DaemonFC; "Formulated with Fluid TITANIUM Technology."
08:28 DaemonFC; They don't really explain to you how much of what is in there, and why.
08:28 DaemonFC; I would like it if someone would pass a law making a bottle of motor oil like a box of cheerios, where it has to tell me everything that's in there and why.
08:29 DaemonFC; There are substantial differences even between the ones that say dexos1 gen3 (the GM standard on them, and a very tough standard).
08:29 DaemonFC; So you really don't get to see exactly what they did, but you know it's at least good enough that GM passed it.
08:29 DaemonFC; That's really all you have.
08:30 DaemonFC; So you want to weed out all but the best options, you look for the ones that say dexos gen3 and then you only consider them.
08:30 DaemonFC; There's really no way to cheat that test. GM doesn't "sell exceptions", like how the Mac became UNIX even with the failed tests (and never even got certified on PPC or ARM, only x86-64).
